Pardon my ignorance, but if I update or install a package via rpm will YUM pick that up in subsequent updates? Or should I be using YUM for installs if I plan to use it for updates? -- <<JAV>>

YUM says I already have ethereal installed, but I have no /usr/sbin/ethereal. I have 3 directories about but no executable. -- <<JAV>>

Okay, I'm curious. I just installed CentOS 3.3 and did an update with YUM. I want to run Apache so I first checked to see if it's installed with rpm -q apache. Nada. Yet, in /etc/rc.d/rc3.d I see K15httpd. So I moved that to S15httpd and started it up. It's up. Goto the default page and it's running. So....if it's not showing up in rpm queries, how is/was it installed? --

I know this is a long shot, but does anyone have any familiarity with this server? It uses the Super X6DH8-G2 motherboard. Currently, we've added an Adaptec 2120S Ultra320 RAID PCI Controller Card to get RAID 5 capability. The installation bombs and from what I can tell it looks like we're getting SCSI resets or the controller is going offline maybe. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I'm having a hard time getting PHPBB installed on Centos. We get the error that The PHP configuration on your server doesn't support the database type that you chose. We choose MySQL 3.x but get that error. Perhaps PHP4 isn't compatible with MySQL 3.23.58-1? -- <<JAV>>

Hello! I'm running clamav-milter, clamd, and sendmail on CentOS 3.3 (RHEL3). I'm trying to verify that my milter works. I've sent test emails from testvirus.org but they don't appear to be getting flagged. I don't see anything in the logs to indicate they were. Is there a sure-fire way to know? Also, how should the clamd work? Does it watch the filesystem? Or will it only work

Is anyone using Webmin with CentOS? I've always found it works very well with RHat Linux. I've not used RHEL so I'm not sure. I know on my SuSE server it doesn't seem to work well and suspect there are some location problems. -- <<JAV>>

I get this error when I update with Yum. It seems to be with CUPs. I also got this installing MySQL-Server. Should I point to another repo? Or even worry? :) -- <<JAV>>

I'm trying to figure out which would the best implementation for my mail and web server. Any experiences? Caveats? I'm on CentOS 3. -- <<JAV>>

Okay, I've posted this before but I've done more testing. I am getting some seriously slow speeds on a server using smbfs (not Samba Server). I'm using a Linux server and mounting Windows 2000 Server shares to it. In my test, the W2K server is on the same local subnet with the Linux server. I'm getting a little better than 10MByte per minute transfering files from the shared

I have a problem. I've purchased 2 different brand NAS devices that both use Samba in some form as their "sharing" mechanism. When I attach them to the LAN I get dreadful speed. To the tune of under 3.5GB per hour transfers. I've even done tests on the same subnet. Two Windows servers on that vlan can move files at great speeds. Map one of them to the NAS and it crawls.
