My NFS server is up and other clients can access x. One particular client can't. I tried to unmount the NFS share: [root at nfsclient ~]# umount -f /disk/x umount2: Device or resource busy umount.nfs: /disk/x: device is busy umount2: Device or resource busy umount.nfs: /disk/x: device is busy If I use df or lsof to try to figure out what process to kill, they hang. I am reluctant to just

Oops! The actual clue in yp.conf is: ; generated by /sbin/dhclient-script So I was looking in the wrong place.

Hello, I'm using a recent install of centos 7, no GUI customizations that I recall. When I log in using the GUI it accepts my password and the mouse appears on a black screen, like it is preparing the desktop, but the desktop never appears. If I hit control-alt-f4 and log in using the command line, and then execute startx, Everything seems to work perfectly. What sort of troubleshooting

Did all this happen because I switched monitors? Or because I did all my setup over ssh? Otherwise, this is an FYI for other newbies who get confused by this like I did. Yesterday I set up a new centos 7 install, did updates, made all the config tweaks I like to make, and rebooted at the end to see if it would start up properly. No problem. (I logged in as the single user to see if it worked but

I just installed centos 7, yum is acting strange, experiencing RPC time-outs. Sometimes when I disable the additional repos (epel and rpmforge) it seems to make things act normal. But not this time (see below). Could I have some misconfiguration? Network glitch? What hypotheses should I be considering? Thanks, Dave [root at localhost ~]# yum repolist repo id

NIS is working fine, at least, for what I expect it to do. What makes you think NIS is involved? What does yum use NIS for? Is there a test command I could use to see

I just tried my first Centos 7 install. I want to install input methods for Chinese. In the good old days, all I had to do was yum install a blob and I was done. Does anyone have a link or some hints that will help me? I did a search, but the hits just confuse me. thanks, Dave

Yes, I rm'ed the wrong directory. The disk has not been written to since, now mounted ro. Is it possible to recover the files without doing forensics on the whole partition? I know the UID and path. XFS is supposed to be pretty amazing, can I get it to do this? Thanks, Dave

I've got Chinese working, but having trouble with Nepali. Here's what I have installed: rpm -qa|grep -i nepal scim-tables-nepali-0.5.6-7 m17n-db-nepali-1.3.3-48.el5 What else is needed? Thanks Dave

A system had a disk problem, I took out the disk, mounted on another system, tweaked around until I thought the disk problem was fixed, then put it back in the original system. I did not edit any config files among the tweaks. When I booted the system, NIS was not working right. I found that these files had been changed: /etc/yp.conf /etc/resolv.conf /etc/ntp.conf /etc/auto.master

I have an entry in root's crontab: #ls -1 /etc/RCS|sed "s~\(.*\),v~\1~"|while read file; do ls -la /etc/$file|ci -q -l /etc/$file ;done Error output I received: do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = No route to host YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = No route to host YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound

I've been thinking about ways to proceed if I need to set up 5 machines with basically identical software but somewhat variable hardware. A simple approach would be to just set up my golden system and clone the disk, but the hardware differences would probably cause problems. One approach that appeals to me is to install minimal centos on the first system, add a few rpms after installation,

Just FYI. This machine has been offline and not updated for several months. I booted it and ran yum update. It generated an error. I googled the error, no hits. I did "yum clean all". Tried yum update again, it finished dependency resolution and reported some missing dependencies. I can deal with that. love and kisses, Dave Here is the tail end of the error output: ---> Package
