Ok, downloading the BackupPC RPM directly did not work to myriad dependencies and sub-dependencies. How do I add the Test repository to my yum config, please?

Hello, Let's say your operating policy is "no patch updates without testing first in the test environment". Let's say it takes you 3 weeks to test. Over the course of the 3 weeks, the repo changes (new packages added, old removed). Is there a way to "freeze" a set of packages so that when I run "yum update" on a Prod server it'll get the same package

...c-app-prod01 selinux]# httpd_sys_script_t ============== allow httpd_sys_script_t self:tcp_socket setopt; I've tried running the AVC denial message through audit2allow again, but it just produced the same module that I already have loaded. Any suggestions? Thanks, Aleksey -- Aleksey Tsalolikhin UNIX System Administrator "I get stuff done!" http://www.lifesurvives.com/

Hi. Has the issue with rsync using a lot of memory if there are a lot of files been addressed in 3.0? I checked the rsync FAQ and it says this issue would require a major rewrite of rsync, not sure if that entry is up to date or not - 3.0 is a major rewrite AFAIK. Thanks, Aleksey

Hi. This page saved me a lot of trouble today, when my Xen 3 multi-bridge setup stopped working after updated from CentOS 5.5 to 5.7: http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/Virtualization-en-US/ch-virt-bridge-errors.html However there were a couple of errors in the script: use of "op" instead of "OP" (variable name mismatch) and use of .. ,, instead of ;; in the shell

Hi. A friend of mine was doing real-time video decoding on Fedora Core 13 and he had a performance glitch (1/2 a second freeze) every 5-10 seconds. "top" showed flush-253:0 process at the moment of the freeze. Major device number 253 corresponds to device-mapper. I advised my friend to re-install his FC13 without LVM, to see if the glitch is related to LVM. After re-installing FC13

Hi. I've installed BackupPC 3.1.0 from Testing repository, to Cent OS 5.2 x86_64, and I am hitting an SE Linux denial - the httpd cannot talk to the BackupPC socket: type=AVC msg=audit(07/31/2008 17:18:53.623:410) : avc: denied { connectto } for pid=11767 comm=httpd path=/var/log/BackupPC/BackupPC.sock scontext=user_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 tcontext=user_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0

Hi. Running CentOS 5 with the default GNOME desktop. Is it possible to configure xterm windows not to have title bars to get the most out of the available screenspace? I've tried to look this up but mostly find reference how to change the content of the title bar; I want to remove it completely. Found a reference to Compiz but the version available through CentOS seems old (0.0.13 compared

Hi. I am trying to recursively rsync a directory containing 13 million files. Right now this is killing my server, in terms of memory usage. I've upgraded from rsync 2.6.9 to 3.0.3 on both ends, but memory usage is still too high. I killed the rsync process when it reached 256 MB in size. I only have 1 GB of RAM in this server. We've planned an outage to upgrade it to 3 GB, but

Hi. I'm trying to get OTRS running on CentOS 5.5 with SELinux enabled, and audit.log / audit2allow tell me I need to add the local policy: #============= httpd_t ============== allow httpd_t unconfined_t:shm { unix_read unix_write }; which I think will allow the httpd access to read and write from shared memory? Is that right? What are the risks involved in opening this? I notice it is

How do I find out who is the maintainer of the php-pgsql package, please? I want to request upgrade from underlying postgresql-libs-8.1.21 (/usr/lib64/libpq.so.4) to postgresql84-libs-8.4.4 (/usr/lib64/libpq.so.5.2). Background on this request: Apache httpd's php's php-pgsql uses PostgreSQL 8.1 library (/usr/lib64/libpq.so.4), which leaks memory. PostgreSQL 8.4 library does not leak.

Hi. I've been running CentOS 5 for ages. (Thanks!) I went to install 6.3 - I downloaded the 64-bit DVD 1 image, and put it on a USB drive. Booted into a screen that said boot will start in 10.. 9... 8.. 7.. 6.. 5.. 4.. 3.. 2.. 1.. 10.. and so on, infinite loop, the boot never starts. I tried booting in text mode, but it doesn't boot, just goes back to the menu. Is there some way to

Hi.

Hi. A friend of mine (Jim Fancher) is having trouble with his Samba install on CentOS Linux. I suggested he ask on the Samba users mailing list. He joined the list and posted, and got an autoreply saying his message is being held for moderation. That was a week ago (Mon, Nov 22nd). Nothing since. I see other posts coming through since then, so wondering why his message got delayed. It was

Hi. I just noticed I had a CentOS 5.3 system that I updated to CentOS 5.5 a few days ago, and I just ran "yum -y update" again to get the latest kernel, and I just noticed it still has the old 2.6.18-128 kernel instead of the new 2.6.18-194.17. What gives? /etc/grub.conf points at 2.6.18-194.17, but when I reboot, 2.6.18-128 comes up. Any suggestions? Thanks, -at myserver# yum -y

Hi. I just installed CentOS for the first time, to make a BackupPC server. However, when I try to install BackupPC using yum, I get the error: No package backuppc available.
