There is a new updated kernel for centos 3.1 that fixes a security issue. As I have not had time to test this build I am releasing it for testing for 24 hours to pick up any problems before general release. It is available at :- http://caos2.caosity.org:/centos/3.1/updates/i386/RPMS/ The version is 2.4.21-15.0.2.el.c0 Please install and test these packages, they are as yet unsigned and not

Hi, just to avoid re-inventing the wheel, is there any document that can help me reduce even further a "minimum" installation of Centos 4.4 (BTW can you say 600mb is minimum)? I am in the process of creating a small Centos-4.4-based Asterisk box and I need to boot it from a CF card. Deleting useless packages will help me do what i want. Example: even a minimum install of Centos 4.4 (or

Hello list, I'm testing CentOS 5.2 as a possible Xen Server (i.e.: dom0) but the default no-items-selected still installs cups, portmap, and many other thing I don't want in a dom0 installation. I've already removed the packages I don't want, and replaced sendmail with postfix (I need a mailserver because of mdadm/smartd) but there're some executables I don't know what

Hi Gang- I just installed Cent 4.4 using the server only CD. Perhaps I overlooked a step, but I am trying to do this: yum install zlib Which gives me: Setting up Install Process Setting up repositories kbs-CentOS-Extras 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 kbs-CentOS-Misc 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 update 100%

Hi, since the last few days my system crashs at startup of gdm (on system boot). If I choose runlevel 2, the system doesn't crash. I found out, that HAL is the problem. After disabling hal (chkconfig haldaemon --off) no crashes appear. The system freezes completly so I can't look into the logfiles. I removed an reinstalled hal already, but nothing changed. I tried older kernels

A friend's machine just had his / partition goto zero percent free. This is an ext3 partition. Not an hour ago he had over 5 gigs free on an 8 gig partition. Any ideas where to look?

Is there a way to determine what package changed from CentOS 4.1 to 4.2 (or between any two versions)? I need to create a yum repository to upgrade some machines that cannot talk to the Internet. Thanks for any help. ID:FONGVANG

Does anyone know where to find a RPM of bugzilla for CentOS4 (or RHEL4)? I'm still very new at building RPMs, so I would strongly prefer to get one already built (and by someone who is better at it than I am). -- Matt

Hi, I am switching a few specific servers with CentOS 4.2 and I'd like to use in some a flash disk (CF card). Unfortunately the minimum size of a centos install seems to be around 600 Mb (at least that's what I got) and 1 Gb card are still expensive and, IMHO too big if all you want is a gateway/iptables machine or a NFS server. There are other OSes and even distros that have a smaller

CentOS specificly, is there any rule of thumb about package names when searching for and installing things using yum? I ask, after I finally found the perl/Tk package I needed, but only after trying several incantations of the package name, from the full blown alpha/numeric name to simply perl/Tk. Is it safe to assume when searching or yum'ing a package that just the package name and
