I have an existing in-production LAMP server running Centos 5.1. It uses physical partitions on top of hardware RAID1, having / /home /var and /boot on separate partitions. We have a near-identical system I am thinking of bringing in as a DRBD/Heartbeat companion. One solution may be to use csync2 [http://oss.linbit.com/csync2/] on /etc and /usr/local (the only areas that will differ from

I have a simple Tyan server with RAID1 on a 3ware 7002 that has been running updated Centos 5.1 for almost 3 weeks with no problem, it runs low-traffic Apache/PHP/mySQL and vsftpd sites exclusively - last night it crashed. The console showed something about a process named 'php' and gave a process id with the panic message, but that's all I can remember. Hard-rebooted and all was

does anyone else have major probs with Firefox as installed on CentOS5? ever since the RPM for FF3 came out it has been crashing daily. Usually when I use Save As... or Browse... or anything else that brings up the Gnome file picker. After the crash I re-start then the file picker works for a while. Sometimes it just takes scrolling or click+drag an image or some other random action. BANG

Ok, dumb question. On a certain LAMP server I am seeing in 'ps auxf' a process called "unit" with no arguments or other path info. It has a fairly low pid, 3041, indicating it might have been started soon after reboot (last week). but ps says it was started yesterday, I don't see it on any of 3 other CentOS machines. It is hard to google for such a generic name. So does

has anyone had any luck getting nvidia to work with the latest xen kernel under x86_64? I found an unsupported method involving IGNORE_XEN_PRESENCE [1], but it doesn't work for me. Everything google turns up seems to be a year old. prob nothing has changed but I just wonder. [1] http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/archive/index.php/t-95483.html maybe I could I run a xen dom0 under vmware?

I have a client-provided SSL cert that seems to be provided by Verisign but issued by my good friends at Network Problems. I thought this was part of default cert.pem, but maybe not. The docs on Verisign's site are... ahem... unhelpful. I have what I think is the correct CA chain for this cert, but still trying to determine what marketing terms overlap with what reality. But how is it to

I am trying to convert an existing IDE one-disk system to RAID1 using the general strategy found here: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2005-March/003813.html But I am stuck on one thing - when I went to create the second md device with mdadm, # mdadm --create /dev/md1 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/hdb2 missing mdadm: error opening /dev/md1: No such file or directory And indeed,

OK sorry to hammer the list but one more question - having almost got the drives mirrored and happy - since I have created a custom initrd that has the raid1 drivers in it, do I now have to tell yum to ignore kernel updates? Will the stock kernel render me unbootable? Actually I am not 100% sure the initrd I created # mkinitrd -f --preload=raid1 /mnt/tmp/initrd-`uname -r`.img `uname -r` is

Hi guys - brand new 5.1 install here and quite happy - but... The nv driver did not work at all for me, fritzy stripes and dots. This is a GeForce 7300 LE which was working happily dual-head under FC6 with the livna nvidia RPMs So I looked around and it seemed like the ATRpms repo via yum was the best option for CentOS. This is what I installed, it worked great with the xorg.conf from the
