Just wanted to see if this tool was approved or disapproved of in the centos community as far as security is concerned. http://www.ispconfig.org/ I have noted that anything that is not a centos package is probably suspect, -so feel free to assure, or warn, at your leisure. Basically we are looking for a secure GUI based DNS admin tool, (I myself prefer an openbsd or centos dns machine and tyo

Hi, I have downloaded several different sets of the 64-bit ISOs, and have burned them to CD using various of my known-good ISO burning softwares, including Nero and DeepBurn on Windows, as well as the native CD burning KDE linux tool on Xandros Linux. I am using mirrors from the site, like kernel.org. I have chosen low burning speeds also, but when I insert the ISO CD into a server and boot it

Hi, I literally have about 36 machines running CentOS on a private network, and will probably change the remaining 30 or so away from Whitebox or RH in the near term. One thing I just noticed was when I tried to search out Tripwire RPM's, that none seemed evident. Can anyone point me in the direction of an Tripwire RPM that works with CentOS 4.3, or advise me on how to create one from the

If I execute these via command line, will they persist after a reboot? Or, should I be putting these into a file like /etc/sysctl.conf? --------------snip-------------- /sbin/sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog=2048 /sbin/sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_fin_timeout=30 /sbin/sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_keepalive_intvl=10 /sbin/sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_keepalive_probes=7 /sbin/sysctl -w

Hey I need to run some pgp commands, -what's the name of the package supported by Centos that will allow me to work with pgp? I need to run pgp --fingerprint key.name or it's equivalent. Pro question. Google searches didn't show much, tried to search for pgp, gnupg, openpgp, pgp on centos, openpgp on centos, centos/pgp. No worthy results came back. Any advice? -karlski

I get these errors from the following settings in /etc/sysctl.conf file: # Custom Settings: net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog=2048 net.ipv4.tcp_fin_timeout=30 net.ipv4.tcp_keepalive_intvl=10 net.ipv4.tcp_keepalive_probes=7 net.ipv4.tcp_keepalive_time=1800 net.ipv4.tcp_max_tw_buckets=360000 net.ipv4.tcp_synack_retries=3 net.ipv4.tcp_rmem="4096 87380 16777216" net.ipv4.tcp_wmem="4096

hey I already compiled apache 2.0.58 from source onto my centos server and noticed I needed to get SSL module added "after the fact" -what are the commands I would run to get this working without wiping everything out and starting over? -karlski

Howdy all, Any recommendation as to the right way to config X. Last time I did was using X86Setup back in OpenBSD 2.7 days. What's the Xorg tool? How do I invoke it? Looks like I just need to fix the ranges, maybe they mean sync vert & horiz or something. Or should I be typing gdm instead of startx? Any advice? -below are some errors, infos, although the dmesg didn't pipe out

Hi, I'm running an Opteron 64 bit server, and in an effort to re-join it to my nagios monitoring, I have tried the install nagios via Yum. When I type: yum install nagios, or nagios-nrpe, or nagios-plugins, I get: "Nothing to do". as output. In wanting to add the DAG repository to my machine, the documentation i've come across seems vague. Can someone advise me on either of

Hello list, johnny, karanbir, rodrigo, william, all, Looks like some changes in 4.4 with openssl behavior I thought to ask about now that things have quieted down slightly since release. I use openssl with my nagios nrpe plugins, and now am getting a "could not complete SSL handshake". I will of course post to nagios list but first want to find out from centos side some key info re:

To extend space on our 64-bit centos FTP servers, we are considering setting them up to work with an existing PromiseRAID system via iscsi. -just curious if anyone here knows if iScsi is fast enough to serve up all the images? -might it be something where we get dedicated cards and put the iScsi traffic on its own Vlan? Just curious if this would hold up under alot of traffic, like weather

Hi, Whats' the best motherboard you ever ran CentOS on? --------- Don't read this unless you have lots o' spare time, and please, no flamers or kook-jobs with wierd attitudes, this is just plain old hardware as it relates to centos talk -no politic or mean folks. Background (why I ask about centos-friendly hardware): As I order alot of servers, I have alot of vendors telling me

I'm trying to install either 32-bit or 64 bit centos 4.3 and I keep getting an error: "No valid devices were found on which to install filesystems". In checking BIOS and RAID, everything seems fine, but I just found some research about I20. An alternative would be the i2o_blocks module. How can I install CentOS 4.3 x86_64 using i2o_blocks? How do I instruct the boot prompt to

Hi, I'm running Centos 5 on an IBM x3550 series server with kernel version 2.6.18-8.el5 #1 SMP, dual xeon, 9GB ram system.

How does one configure a fence device in the form of a NIC card in centos 5? Is the gnbd item relevant to this? I have posted the question to linux-cluster also, but they are much less active overall, -so if you have info, massively appreciated... -karl

Hi, Last time I was on Karanbir mentioned Puppet, -what do you all think of Cobbler? I plan to deploy one of the suggestions this week since it looks like i'll be dealing with 2000 centos systems instead of the few hundred I had predicted. -krb

am using cobbler to import via rsync -and having trouble munging paths properly to download the 64-bit dvd or others, -what's a known good rsync path to use, or a command line that would allow me to determine this myself? When I use the web browsers of course and go to centos.org, you'll get the usual "not a suppoorted protocol" when clicking around trying to isolate a good

I am doing research on getting an operational GFS setup on 3 servers I have centos 4.4/64 built on. I can of course upgrade the to 4.5, but is it smarter to try centos 5 for this or can I get away with getting this working on 4.4/4.5? (basically trying to eliminate the need to visit the colo.) -krb
