similar to: RHEL4 to CentOS 4

This is a list of issues for discussion for CentOS-4. Most of it is based on my experience from building/maintaining CentOS-2 and observing CentOS-3. I have not seen the CentOS-4 beta yet so I don't know if any of this is already done. If these have been discussed on IRC then perhaps someone could produce a shot summary of the outcomes....? * Just call it CentOS-4 not 4.1 etc. Too

Hi! I'm trying to upgrade my Redhat 3AS server, but I'm encountering problems. The first problem was, I didn't know what repository to use. I settled on http://mirror.centos.org/, but using it is strange, as not all mirror servers have all of the directories, and so sometimes links appear broken, but the problem goes away if I hit reload. A number of them have empty directories,

Hi, I have the x86_64 arch on my server so therfore i expect that yum updates only x86_64 packages. With the last *yum update* i?ve noticed a strange behaviour while retrieving the needed packeges. As you you see, yum wants install packages for different architectures: glibc x86_64 2.3.4-2.25 base 4.9 M glibc i686 2.3.4-2.25 base 5.1 M . .

Greetings All, How to does one go about reconfiguring centos's time zone configuration (to the eastern time zone (us)), via the command line?

Hello all, I manage a few servers overseas that are running CentOS 6. When performing a yum update, it fails because it's trying to download from: mirror.centos.org/centos/*6.6*/extras/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml Which fails due to the fact that the entire 6.6 directory is empty on all of the mirrors I have checked.

Hi all, My colleagues and friends from time to time send me .wmv files and I'd like to be able to view them under CentOS. VLC was recommended to me, and AFAIR about a half year ago I tried installing it. I don't remember the exact details, but I do remember that the Red Hat and Fedora binary distributions didn't work without giving all sorts of errors. I _think_ I then did a

Hi all, When I am installing I use kickstart and have a line like: repo --name=Updates --baseurl=http://192.168.1.14/centos/5.6/updates/x86_64/ and that works great for installing the OS. After that the machine reboots and I have it automatically go into additional installations running scripts. These installations do "yum install XXX". However, its no longer using my above repo
