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.

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.

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

Is there a config file that controls the screen blanking behavior? After a short time period the screen goes blank and you must reenter your password to get the desktop back. I would like to at least extend the timeout for this blackout/lockout behavior for my own convenience. Charles L.

Dear Sir, I have everything set up on my red hat Linux 7.1 linux box. For sometime I could mount cd's and floppies automatically, but now something seems to have gone wrong. I can't mount my floppy(/dev/fd0) and cdrom(/dev/cdrom) manually or automatically. At startup it says ... /dev/fd0 is not a valid block device. /dev/cdrom is write protected...mounting read only! mount: No

After setting up a working SAMBA test server, attempts to move it to production failed. The plan was to replace an old file server upgrading to 3.7 OpenBSD and SAMBA 3.0.14a. The test server worked in a test environment, but when moved to the production network replacing the existing server, SAMBA failed. The failure centers around SAMBA's inability to recognize that it has changed

Dear All I tried to mount an external cdrom on my CentOS 5 server but un-successful . I attached the device to my USB port and then the followings have been added to my /dev folder : "cdrom -> scd0 cdrom-sr0 -> scd0 cdrw -> scd0 cdrw-sr0 -> scd0 cdwriter -> scd0 cdwriter-sr0 -> scd0" To this end , I tried to mount it as the followings (but it didn't get through) :

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

OK, this is getting ridiculous. A relatively new HP NC4010 (1 year old). A maybe not the newest Storix USB CD/R-DVD drive. Of course the HP has no problem booting up off the CDrom. But then I get that blasted dialog of where are my install. So I go through the list and find a USB storage driver. It doesn't help. I do have a USB 2.5" drive case that I can put a drive in with the
