I have a CentOS server at home and want to view the X display on a laptop running Ubuntu, and not having much success. Here's what's been tried so far: I ran this command on the CentOS server: export DISPLAY=192.168.0.18:0.0 And ran this command on the Ubuntu laptop: xauth +192.168.0.2 When I try to run, say, xclock on the Ubuntu laptop, this is the error message I'm getting:

Is there a switch in "find" (or some other command besides find) that'll let you find files larger than a specified size? My file system is 88% full and I'd like to see where the biggest space hoggers are. PG

I have a CentOS 4.3 workstation I use for experimentation on my desk at work. It was plugged into an old LG 14" monitor, and I switched the video cable to a Samsung 17" LCD without rebooting. The screen resolution was set to 800x600 on the 14" monitor, and the display worked fine at 800x600 after switching to the Samsung 17". When I changed the resolution to 1024x764, the

Hi guys: I saw the pelthora of threads where people had trouble moving to 4.4. So I'm chicken now and I was trying to wait for the dust to settle, I suppose it has and its been long enough I'm nervous about not upgrading. I need to do a a production server that is located in a data center far away so even more than normal I want a smooth upgrade. Can someone tell the what the

I ordered and just received today a new Dell Inspiron 640m laptop (it also goes by the name E1405). Anyone tried installing CentOS on this laptop? It's the wireless drivers I'm most concerned about; it's got the Dell 1390 internal wireless card (not the Intel wireless). Anyone have some feedback, on the wireless or any other issues, on running CentOS on this laptop? Thanks Paul

Is there a way to send a voicemail to two different email addresses when a caller leaves a message? Thanks a bunch! Randy

I need to be able to allow specific system accounts to ftp to a box. As far as I can tell I have to give them a shell in /etc/passwd (i.e. /bin/bash) in order for their ftp login to work. I do *not* however want them to be able to log into a shell or ssh session. I cannot restrict by IP. What's the best way to accomplish this? Thanks, Scott

Software is Centos7, Dovecot 2.2.10 >Use that single mailbox with IMAP, others stay to POP Thanks, I considered that and looked up the ways to restrict IMAP access. But: How will the IMAP account behave with the current mail_location setting below? mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u That is, where will the IMAP account's mail "go"? Right now it goes to

I had the electricity go out the other day. When my Centos 4.3 workstation came up, I said yes when it got to the prompt "Unclean shutdown, force filesystem check?" prompt. It ground away for awhile and then said something about a bad superblock. Yikes! I thought, that's a bad sign. After a reboot, I got nothing but a grub> prompt. I tried booting into rescue mode using the

Hi All, I'm pretty new to this list and to CentOS, so forgive me if this kind of thing is shunned. I have really enjoyed following some threads on this list and learning what everyone out there is doing with the OS. I actually got started on CentOS when researching how to study for the RHCE without forking out big cash for Red Hat licenses, a donation is coming soon. Anyway, I'm

Hello, I'm thinking about migrating from RHEL 4 to CentOS. Is there a document that provide pointer / guidance for doing that ? or is this document: http://www.centos.org/modules/smartfaq/faq.php?faqid=19 relevant enough to follow in my situation ? I understand that I should probably strip the install of any RedHat images, trademark, etc, as to not infringing any copyright. So I am

I set up an asterisk box with a broadvoice sip connection for incoming connections it works great when I use a cell phone, vonage line, calling card to call the asterisk box, but when I try to call it from our verizon land line it is busy and asterisk logs do not show incoming call. Any ideas on what the issue is? Thanks! Randy

My server is a limited space mailserver set up to filter spam. Most of it's mail is passed on ot an exchange server so it is not stored locally. I have a handful of pop accounts that are stored locally. For years I've used mbox type mailboxes that I'm familiar with and can access on the server when needed using the old mailx program. They use a variety of clinets, typically Outlook

Hello, This is probably nothing, and I''m just the one missing something here. But I''m just curious. I am trying to run samba in one of my machines that run shorewall. But I forgot to add the rule to allow smb connection in my /etc/shorewall/rules. Of course when I tried to access the smb share from another machine, I couldn''t. I fixed that quickly, no problem.
