similar to: CentOS 4.3 Screen Timeout

I just installed CentOS 4.2 on a system that was running RedHat 9. Now the browser (Mozilla Firefox) can't connect to web sites via their name (www.google.com <http://www.google.com/> ). It can however connect if the IP address is used (66.102.7.147). Also the 'dig' command times out with either the name or the IP address. Has anyone else seen this? Any pointers would be

Does CentOS 4 work well with SATA drives? Or should I build the system using IDE/PATA disks? I'm looking for stability more than speed. Thanks Charles L.

Is there a doc that describes how to create a floppy that will boot and then switch over to the installation CD? It looks to me like this should be possible using grub on the floppy. Charles L.

I'm using the same CD's that I've used to install CentOS on my other systems. After the first failure I had the installation verify the install media just in case. It passed. I've tried the default install (used for all previous installs) and the i586 option (after googling). They both fail in the same way. Here is a transcript of what is output to the screen: Running

Just installed CentOS 4.2 on a system that was running RedHat-9. The system is connected to the keyboard, video and mouse through a Belkin OmniView Pro KVM switch. After bootup, the the system tracks movement by the mouse just fine. The unstable behavior can be characterized as follows: 1. Console is switched to a different system for a time and then switched back to the Centos system. 2.

Is there a command that will list the disks that the system currently has? The df and mount commands only display info about filesystems. Charles L.

I can't seem to find a way to boot the system using a boot floppy and then switch over to the installation CD's.

Hi, I just got a comment from one of my IBM support engineeres that there is a problem with auth-passwd.c only calling authenticate() once. He claims it should potentially be called several times, in case several authetication methods are defined in /etc/security/user. F.ex.: SYSTEM = "NIS and DCE" Suggested (untested) patch should look like: ----------------- cut

Hi, I have 2 CentOS servers 82.201.195.123 & 62.139.61.84 I want to deny all ssh logins on port 22 on (62.139.61.84) from any host except from (82.201.195.123) Can anybody tell me such iptables rules to write in /etc/sysconfig/iptables Currently, im using the following rules (on 62.139.61.84) *filter :INPUT ACCEPT [0:0] :FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0] :OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0] :RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -

We have come across a problem with OpenSSH 2.3.0p1 (and still in 2.5.1p1) which affect authentication on an AIX 4.3 system. The code in auth-passwd.c at line 168 reads: #ifdef WITH_AIXAUTHENTICATE return (authenticate(pw->pw_name,password,&reenter,&authmsg) == 0); #endif however, the AIX manual page for "authenticate" states: "The authenticate subroutine maintains

In one particular situation predict.coxph gives an error message. Namely: stratified data, predict='expected', new data, se=TRUE. I think I found the error but I'll leave that to you to decide.

This is odd but I'm trying to get the most elementary sides of WINE down. I have gotten it to attempt to run write.exe out of my windows directory. but upon doing so it comes up with the LANG errors which I don't think is catastrophic. (I might be wrong) and then it comes up with these errors: Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Xlib: Invalid MIT_MAGIC_COOKIE-1 key

I have Red Hat Linux RHEL 4 with Samba version 3.0.10-1.4E that mounts a local Windows 2003 Server disc with the following command: /sbin/mount.cifs //img1/docs /var/www/documents -o dir_mode=0777,file_mode=0444, gid=100,uid=501,username={xxxxxxx},password={pppppp} The mount succeeds and the mount appears on the output of 'df' and the documents are accessible and life is as grand

Has anyone else seen this? I patched my Red Hat box yesterday with the Red Hat 2.4.18-4 kernel patch. It was fine until I rebooted and then the new kernel failed. It still came up with the old kernel. No biggee, we were in a blackout time anyway since we are not allowed to stream certain national broadcasts, so I re-installed just to try out something new. I patched the kernel with all the
