Hey I need to run some pgp commands, -what's the name of the package supported by Centos that will allow me to work with pgp? I need to run pgp --fingerprint key.name or it's equivalent. Pro question. Google searches didn't show much, tried to search for pgp, gnupg, openpgp, pgp on centos, openpgp on centos, centos/pgp. No worthy results came back. Any advice? -karlski

Hi, We have patched Centos 4.4 to work properly with the recent DST changes, but our customers are reporting wrong FTP client timestamps based on which areas they live in. What are the two main mechanisms in Centos that control time? I know about /etc/localtime and TZDATA, is there something we may have missed? Or is this perhaps a VSFTPd thing and I could go bug that list? To be clear,

If I execute these via command line, will they persist after a reboot? Or, should I be putting these into a file like /etc/sysctl.conf? --------------snip-------------- /sbin/sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog=2048 /sbin/sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_fin_timeout=30 /sbin/sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_keepalive_intvl=10 /sbin/sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_keepalive_probes=7 /sbin/sysctl -w

Hi, What's the best/safest way to "cat" the following job into crontab? */3 * * * * /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_megaraid_passive.sh > /dev/null 2>&1 I am used to doing this manually via crontab -e, but now I simply have too many centos servers to build in a given week (get to toss another 120K at some more 2U chenbro/tyan/amd64's -w000ooo). -karlski

Hi, Running a bunch of CentOS servers on 2U supermicro equipment, usually with 8 drives on Adaptec SmartRAID V or LSI Megaraid. In designing a rack in a data center, the question arises as to how to measure the amperage the server uses, prior to investing in power drops that actually do that for you, even remotely, for about $260.00-300USD per unit. This number is the important one these days

Hi, I have alot of kickstart and scripting going on as I provision lots of machines, and every now and then I run into a pesky machine or three that's still got that Adeptec zero-channel RAID card sitting on the board. Normally I like to rip it our and throw something more robust in, but if it's a cache machine or whatever, I leave it in. It makes my kickstart file useless until I

hey all, I perused my inbox looking for this subject, but not finding it, -anything I need to keep my server farm of 60 centos servers (that all run ntp) going smoothly during this next time change on March 11? I noticed on the w2k side my IT staff have to do some scrambling, heh, but that's expected. Any action required? -karlski

hey I already compiled apache 2.0.58 from source onto my centos server and noticed I needed to get SSL module added "after the fact" -what are the commands I would run to get this working without wiping everything out and starting over? -karlski

Is there a specific way to set a name server so that clients are always *forced* to use an autoritative name server? UltraDNS and some others have mentioned little features they have, but it only hints at the possibility that somewhere in the DNS spec. -karlski

Hi, In populating our racks with several gigbit switches over the next few days, i'm wondering this: Is it over-engineering to seek out 550mhz rated cables over the typical Cat 6 250mhz rated cables? I've been advised (if you can a salesperson's words advice, heh.) that 250mhz is enough to handle traffic up to 10GB's. Should I just be happy with Cat6 for my GB switches or is

Hi, I am trying to get L2TP roadwarrior VPN working from http://www.shorewall.net/IPSEC-2.6.html#RW-L2TP but i am making a mistake somewhere, appreciate a fresh set of eyes to help. I have the following interfaces: ppp0 - interneteth0 - local networkrem - client openvpnl2tp - ppp for lt2p clients I am getting the following error logged when trying to connect into the server with L2TP from a remote

I have a server currently connecting to a pptp remote server. This server(lns\lac) has the option for pptp connections and l2tp connections. The l2tp connections are not using ipsec encryption at all. I have seen couple guides\tutorials on the internet: - https://raymii.org/s/tutorials/IPSEC_L2TP_vpn_on_CentOS_-_Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_or_Scientific_-_Linux_6.html -

Howdy all, Any recommendation as to the right way to config X. Last time I did was using X86Setup back in OpenBSD 2.7 days. What's the Xorg tool? How do I invoke it? Looks like I just need to fix the ranges, maybe they mean sync vert & horiz or something. Or should I be typing gdm instead of startx? Any advice? -below are some errors, infos, although the dmesg didn't pipe out

Hi, I have servers of mixed OS, some Centos, some Fedora, and after the flame war that erupted last week (where I said basically nothing and just watched), my server was hacked by this team of hackers, actually their friend: http://www.sibersavascilar.com/ This made Karanbir's statements about mixing Cpanel and Centos (any maybe any linux distro) come true very quickly. If

Hello list... I have samba 4.1.17 installed and in the same server, I have l2tp. Samba it configurated as active directory domain controller. I am trying authetication against samba with winbind. I want to know how to restrict authentication for certain group. I put this line in the end of l2tp conf file: ntlm_auth-helper '/usr/bin/ntlm_auth --helper-protocol=ntlm-server-1

Hey John, I do not require encryption at all, it's a secure and internal channel but it requires me to connect via either pptp or l2tp. This is the reason I am asking. I had the chance of finding the SoftEther Project which gives a lot in terms of VPN Client and Server. At: http://www.softether-download.com/en.aspx But yet to try it. Also they have all sorts of beta versions but not

Hi, I am installing Centos ServerCD 4.4 64-bit on a new Supermicro board, the RAID BIOS looks fine, RAID 5, all 4 Seagate ES 250 GB drives show up as a single array in the RAID BIOS tool, and the OS install phase completes without a hitch. One thing I noticed was that the OS was loading the sata_nv driver and picking up the 4 Sata drives instead of the large RAID5 volume, it should just

Hey First, apologies if this went out twice. I sent the original email from an odd email configuration (essentially from an alias of what I signed up as). I searched and noticed that my post did not appear and I did not get a bounce back so I was confused. I waited a few days before resending. So apologies if this goes out twice. I am not trying to spam. I was hoping someone could help me with

Hi, I am facing a task of choosing vpn server. I do not know which is better. The one distributed with CentOS4.5 only supports pppd (or maybe pptp but I cannot find it). If* *I want to use PPTP or L2TP, which one should I choose? OpenVPN? Poptop? Thanks. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
