=== Come contribuire al wiki === Vorremmo un wiki dove chiunque potesse scrivere senza dover fare i salti mortali, ma non ci ? consentito. Dite grazie a tutti gli Spammer l? fuori che "spargono" il loro contributo ovunque sul web. Perci?, per mantenere i contenuti puliti e accurati, moderiamo gli articoli che ci vengono sottoposti.

Hi, I have merged the HowToContribute and Contribute pages onto the Contribute link. But the tab on the top points to HowToContribute, while the link on the first page references the Contribute page. Is it possible to link the Contribute tab on the top to the Contribute page instead and then remove the HowToContribute page ? I now...

Dear Sir or Madam, According to the policy described in http://wiki.centos.org/HowToContribute and after receiving the attached email from Ralph Angenendt <ra+centos at br-online.de>, I respectifully request permission to post a "How to contribute RPMs to the CentOS Project" document; the basic text is currently at http://durval.com.br/CentOS_RPM_Contrib_HowTo.html (it would...

Hi Guys, While updating es/ pages, noted that actually there are two Contribute pages. One in Contribute and other in HowToContribute. I wonder if we could reorganize that a bit. Maybe separate contribution needs by SIGs. Then create a Contribution index page where all those SIG's contribution pages be linked from ? It may be needed to create some SIGs in those areas where they don't exist. At this moment (and at least...

Hi there, I encountered that message when try to login to ssh via putty, this happened after implement what have been said in this article http://wiki.centos.org/Contribute?action=show&redirect=HowToContribute except the "DSA PRIVATE KEY" step and I'm sure that's the reason. so please if there is any way to fix that, or the only solution is to ask the host for that.

Hi Ralph, Could you install 1.7-12 please, it includes: - some message styles. - make body top and bottom 0px. If it can't be installed on wiki.centos.org could you give me write access on wiki-m.centos.org/ArtWork/Wiki page to show the message style proposition ? Cheers, al.

Hi, the layout on wiki-m.centos.org looks pretty convincing to me, now. Two things: <http://people.centos.org/~ralph/pagetrail.png> - the pagetrail stuff isn't readable at all. I propose the following patch to screen.css: -----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%<-----%< --- screen.css.orig 2007-11-15 12:35:59.000000000 +0000

...gnificant?) We will probably want to roll our own compat-openssl packages to provide the relevant libssl and libcrypto .so files, using e.g. compat-openldap as an example. Is this something we could contribute? It doesn't seem to exist yet in any repositories linked from http://wiki.centos.org/HowToContribute/Packages. Assuming it makes sense to contribute this, we'd want to do it right. Could anyone outline steps to make the packages secure and compatible? For example, is it sufficient to roll up the .so files from the CentOS 4.xopenssl packages into rpms and add Requires tags for .so files from c...

...name is Sebastian Dziallas and I would like to contribute to the CentOS Wiki. I thought a bit about what I could do and I think I would like to help translating the wiki in other languages. I speak English, German and also French. My UserName is - what a surprise - SebastianDziallas. On the HowToContribute-Page you said that I should know where to put the articles. As you proposed on the MultiLingualWiki-Page, pages with the prefixes /de/ and /fr/ should be fine.

...lt;http://wiki-m.centos.org/UserPreferences>. Please view that page while logged out of wiki-m. b) While doing so I have changed the Guidelines page for the wiki. Please review that page and add to the "Guidelines concerning Wiki content" part: <http://wiki-m.centos.org/HowToContribute/EditingCentOSWiki> c) So there will be an alias "wikiteam AT centos.org" to which submissions for new accounts will go to. The people on the editorial team for the wiki will get mails for that alias, so they can add the person requiring access to EditGroup. d) Which means th...

Hi people I will like to ask for the permission to rewrite the current FreeNX article. The current article is lacking in the information on how to add accounts to the nxserver on centos. I think it will be very difficult for linux newbies to understand how to read that article. I am a newbie too so I can understand the frustration when you can't find an appropriate HowTo article.

Well, we wanted to put an install on a USB key. Neither I nor the other admin was amused by the singing and dancing that the wiki offers - and just *why* is it that syslinux is broken? At any rate, I did some googling, and found <http://www.pendrivelinux.com/>, and I ran this installer. Ok, it has some bugs: a) I had several .isos, and it *insisted* on grabbing the first one,

Hi List, I have been asked in this thread if I would contribute an article on iptables to the Wiki: http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=10240&forum=37 The article would be based on a tutorial I have previously written here: http://forums.pcper.com/showthread.php?t=432469 I'm not sure where the article should best go so leave that to your discretion. If you

...e subject in the first place) but pretty savvy about wikis. I got an account (Jen.RM) with the wiki thinking that would let me edit a writeup that was broken. Then I clicked on the contribute tab thinking that maybe someone had renamed "edit" and I ended up here: http://wiki.centos.org/HowToContribute Having run wikis and had significant trouble with spam I understand the inclination to not let random people edit the wiki, but once you've verified "this is an actual person" it seems silly to me to to introduce any further editing controls. The distance between "ANYONE edits&...

HI! Friends, I have recently shared my experiences while installing CentOS using a single CD, then creating XEN VMs and sharing YUM repositories and stuff at my blog, http://mytechrantings.blogspot.com/2007/08/centos-5-selinux-xen-squid-yum-cache.html But as per feedback I realized that it was to chaotic and full of ramblings and was suggested to write some how tos. I from my experience on Net
