Sad to say one of my file servers was exploited and used to run a Phishing scam. Have identified subject virus amongst other things. It appears twice in a virus scan; /sbin/z (which I assume can just be deleted) and /sys/bus/serio/drivers/atkbd/description. The latter file is also present in identical uninfected machines. I have been unable to open the file, even with root privileges, although

Epson doesn't seem to have one; I see an rpm at openprinting.org, but that .rpm d/l I started around 11:30 my time, and the d/l slowed, and slowed, and it's been at 21% and "1 hr 17 min to go" for it seems like close to half an hour. I d/l a tar.bz2, but I'm not sure I want to build and install it - my use of this printer is temporary, and I want to be able to uninstall it

Just a heads up that once again an xorg update has removed the link in /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions that points to libglx.so.325.15 in /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/nvidia thus breaking X. This should only effect those with nvidia proprietary driver. One of the following packages is the culprit but I have not tried to narrow it down. I have done updates and downgrades several

Disk mount tool gives message "There are no filesystems you are allowed to mount. Reolacing "pamconsole" with "user" in /etc/fstab solves the issue temporarily. This was fixed in FC4.

I have a couple machines running 5.6 fully updated from cr repo.

For a couple months or so I have noticed that failed dovecot logins do not print the offending IP address in /var/log/secure which prevents fail2ban from blocking appropriate ports. All had worked well for several years. Box is 5.7 fully updated. I found this bug against cyrus-sasl which sounds like it might be related: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=683797 On the box in

Have completed two clean installs of CentOS 5 with no issues (other than permissions on ~/.ssh directory. One 32 bit system, one 64 bit. When I tried an upgrade from 4.4 on 64 bit system with two SATA drives in Raid 1 configuration, anaconda could not mount the root partition /dev/md1. The error message suggested it was because the partition was not formated which is obviously not correct. Any

There is apparently a kernel bug that creates a kernel panic when starting a windows guest in vmware workstation. I have experienced this bug on two machines, both with workstation 8.0.6 but it has been reported with other versions as well: https://communities.vmware.com/message/2318686 . Booting kernel 2.6.32-358.23.2.el6.x86_64 instead of 2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64 resolves the issue. Just a

I'm having a wireless connection issue with an HP laptop and a Zotac media server after the 6.4 package updates from CR repository. Nothing changed with wireless config as far as I can tell. Both have been working fine with previous releases of 6.x. Oddly, if a cat 5 cable is connected for a few seconds and then disconnected the wireless works fine and survives a 'service network
