Can I adjust the ssh daemon to log IP addresses instead of hostnames? I assume this situation is feasible... * 10.10.10.10 attempts to ssh to the server * reverse dns resolves to "somehost.domain.com" * ssh daemon logs "somehost.domain.com" in messages * foward dns on "somehost.domain.com" resolves to 10.10.10.20 Thus it causes some of my scripts a problem if the

Ok, I built a test system to duplicate my problem and provide myself a platform that I can mess around with to try and break any features. My problem is G729 pass-through from a gateway to a phone. I think I even have transcoding working, which makes me more confused on what's wrong with my pass-through. It must be a configuration issue. The basics... *CLI> core show version Asterisk

So both "yum upgrade" and "yum update" now are complete and there's no new packages. However, when I attempt to check my version, I'm still showing 5. # cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 5 (Final) I remember seeing 5.1 repositories being access for the upgrades. Is it possible my system did not upgrade? # uname -r 2.6.18-53.1.4.el5.centos.plus Thanks, Scott

I have a fresh 1.4.10.1 installation that appears to have a problem with g729 pass-through. I can see the gateway in question sending an INVITE using g729b. However, the Asterisk is only sending g711 in the INVITE to my Polycom phone. [gateway] disallow=all allow=g729 [phone] disallow=all allow=ulaw allow=alaw allow=g729 There's the codec configs for the gateway and the phone in question.

Is there an easy way to show all active channels AND the codecs they're using? Other than going through EACH channel individually to check the codec which is, obviously, not a very efficient process. Thanks, Scott

So I'm working with the iSCSI Initiator and an EqualLogic SAN. I'm not sure when this might have happened, but it appears that the /dev/sdc device is missing, yet the /dev/sdc1 partition exists AND is mountable. Is there a method to re-create the /dev/sdc device? I cannot dd or fdisk it, obviously, but I can mount the /dev/sdc1 partition and it works just fine. Not having the /dev/sdc

Is there a way to use an HTTP proxy (with a user/pass) with yum? Or at least a way to pass a user/pass through yum? I have a situation with a CentOS server behind a web filter appliance. Thanks, Scott

Using GUI methods (read: easy for most users), is there a way to map to a Samba share and have it accessible to all applications? Going through Nautilus I'm able to create a link to the shares, but they're not accessible from many applications. And, obviously, this is going to be something that changes per user (different mappings, different credentials, etc), so I can't use a static

I have 2 installs of 4.4 that I'm experimenting with. 'yum update' on one of them upgraded to 4.5, but the other system does NOT upgrade. Any ideas? I ran a 'yum clean all' but it did not appear to help. Thanks, Scott

I have an ext3 partition from our SAN. The size was increased. I am attempting to re-size this specific ext3 partition, obviously. I unmount the partition, run fdisk, change the cyls, and save... WARNING: Re-reading the partition table failed with error 22: Invalid argument. The kernel still uses the old table. The new table will be used at the next reboot. And that is the message that I

I have a simple script that sends one file to two locations on the same destination server. Here's the code: DEST="remotehost" SRC="/home/boss/application.conf" DST1="/home/user1/application.conf" DST2="/home/user2/application.conf" RSYNC1=`rsync -caW -e ssh $SRC $DEST:$DST1` RSYNC2=`rsync -caW -e ssh $SRC $DEST:$DST2` This runs every 5 minutes. What

I removed an ATA drive (/home) for a new SATA and my system would not boot. I'm guessing that it put the MBR on that drive instead of the drive that holds the / partition. What's the best way confirm where the MBR resides and, after I verify that's my problem, how I can move (or make a copy) onto a different drive? Thanks, Scott

Hi All, I'm interested in how people are "clustering" Asterisk, if that's possible, or how you might be achieving a redundant solution. I've a single Asterisk server driving the company. Its well backed-up, and I've a cloned machine that (in theory) with a DNS change could take over operations. However I'd like to achieve something more automated if possible. I

My phone isn't registering with my Asterisk appliance, but I'm not sure where to find any logs to see what is going on? Does the appliance not support log viewing? Thanks, Scott

Does anyone have Asterisk 1.4 using g729 with a Cisco gateway? So far I'm 0 for 2 when trying to get my Asterisk to use g729 with Cisco gateways. I do not have a problem with g729 when using our IP phones or talking with our non-Cisco VOIP platform. The problem only seems to exist, at least in my environment, when talking with Cisco devices. Thanks, Scott

Let's say I have a Samba server for my file serving needs. Would there be any way to configure CentOS to automatically mount a few specified partitions as the user logging in? Something of the nature of /mnt/home, /mnt/pictures, /mnt/music and so forth. They need to be mounted as the current user, and I prefer not to customize shell based login scripts. Can this be done through fstab

I increased the SAN partition size for a given volume. Is there a way I can have fdisk recognize the new size without a reboot? Thanks, Scott

I'm told that we cannot do Multipath I/O on our iSCSI SAN on RHEL with 2 network cards. I could use 1 network card, but need an HBA. Is this true? Do I need an HBA, or can I do Multipath using 2 NICs? We're running RHEL 4 and CentOS 4 and 5 servers on this network. I have been reading through the device-mapper documentation, but I have not found anything (unless I'm not clear on
