...my local.fc. However, my google-fu is not strong enough to find any actual examples of successful custom file context type creation/installation using selinux modules. I suspect something simple, but haven't a clue what it is. Anyone got any idea what I need to do different?

Just an aside: I notice that the original patch got included in commit f8c11461aa6db168fc5e7eeae448b4cbbf59642a in the portable git repo, along with another change that matches the commit message.

Long shot question, but I''m running out of ideas... I''m running puppet-0.25.2 on Fedora boxes to manage a simple Java service started through an /etc/init.d script. I can start, stop, restart, and examine the service status using the standard /sbin/ service command. Works like a champ. The issue is that when I use puppet to start the service, the service fails to run.

...nfo is exposed in *some* fashion, anyone can get it into their monitoring system of choice via various hooks, and I think being agnostic about the actual monitoring system is the right choice (e.g. a prometheus HTTP endpoint exporter embedded in OpenSSH would be very very wrong).

When I log into a virtual console as ordinary user, I initially have a prompt & cursor. After I print 24 lines or more, the last visible (24th) line will be data instead of the prompt & cursor. The up arrow no longer gives the previous commands. A clear command will restore the prompt & cursor. This bug first appeared after I installed CentOS5. I do not believe it is a CentOS5

Hi, when I run a nmap localhost I see that port 199 is open for the smux service but when I check the services gui in runlevel 3 or 5 I don't find it. It's also not in /etc/init.d/ At the moment almost everything is inactive except for some well known services like httpd crond etc. but mux is still there. Does anyone know how to colse this service? regards, ivago -------------- next

Hi, I have a HP DL 585 server with Quad Opteron processors and 32 Gbytes of RAM. I would like to know whether CentOS 3.5 x86_64 will recognize all 4 CPUs and 32 Gbytes of RAM.

Hello, Is that possible to disable running of PHP on certain directories? I am running a server which provides personal homepage service. However, not every user are familiar with security, some may upload some PHP scripts with bugs/holes. I do not want them to be executed on the server. I can enable the safe_mode, but I have some other PHP scripts which need safe_mode to be disabled. Any

Hi! I have a really weird problem with some of my servers, namely all the ones running Centos5 When I try to download a file from the server to a machine outside our Cisco 6500 router/firewall, the download hangs about half the times (15 out of 40) when less than half a megabyte into the transfer (varied from 76 kb to 496 kb). One server has a portchannel (Cisco speak for ethernet bundle),

Hi all, A few months ago, I migrated some of our internal servers to HP blades, as the VMWare box they were previously running on was getting too slow. However, it wasn't without it's problems, and eventually the only way I could get them to work was: Install the same version of CentOS on the blade (believed to be 5.0, but /etc/redhat-release says 5.2) Took down both servers, booting

> This makes me think that the syslog approach is probably the way to go Yeah, right. Another idea is to mirror the current preauth load via setproctitle()... That makes that data accessible even without a syscall (at least the writing of the data - quering needs syscalls, right), so that can be kept up-to-date and allows a high monitoring frequency as well.
