How to add System V Filesystem to Centos?
Hi,

old Unix server. I have tared the files to floppy disc, but I can't

discs.

Server hangs initializing audio
I have a server that frequently hangs while rebooting. I see no
errors, but during the boot process it stops at this stage:
Initializing hardware... storage network audio
The cursor sits just after the word "audio" and I have to do a hard
reset to get out of it. This server has no audio capabilities, so I
am thinking that I just need to disable the audio stuff so it doesn't

system to receive 500,000 requests/ day with in the next year. We want

Thin client server setup
Hi,
I am thinking of settting up a thin client server setup.
I would like to set it up to work with linux and windows.
I was going to use Symbiont but it says it needs a different version of
linux to install. Has anyone used it with Centos before?
Would it be easier to just install LTSP and set it up.

Process run away
Hi,
I just found that one of my centos servers was running at 100% cpu and
had used up all the memory.
I checked system monitor and was not able to find the culprit, I
restarted the server and it seems fine now.
Does anyone know of a simple way to have the server email me if the cpu
load is at max for x amount of time. I am not
sure how long it was running like that, I have not checked it

At the end of the day I would like to find some tool in Centos

attachment as plaint/text that would be enough to process content of
attachment)
