similar to: Creating File Server Using CentoS 4.3 Final

I am running a server with Centos 4.4, using a combo of sendmail-clamav-spamassassin for mail, which has been working quite well up until last night. Around 3:00am, all mail going to all users was being rejected by spamassassin. My ~/mail/.procmailrc is as follows: ======================== MAILDIR=$HOME/mail # :0 H * ^X-Spam-Status:.*Yes { EXITCODE=67 :0: /dev/null } =========================

My USB Pendrive gets mounted everytime I put it on the USB port (/dev/sda on /media/usbdisk). This behaviour is the desired. Now I want the OS to automaticaly include the mount option iocharset=iso8859-1 everytime it mounts it. Is there a way to tell haldaemon (or other software) do this, instead of hand-editing /etc/fstab ? -- Vilela -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment

Hello, I have been using mondorescue to backup to dvd for several months now without any problems. Since upgrading to Centos 4.4, I now receive a few errors. The errors are for files in /var/named/chroot/proc. I guess these files change so when I do a differntial backup they aren't there and result in errors. (Never got any errors before and I think these files were there in 4.3) If I

We want to keep a backup or a mirror of your files in a server we don't fully trust. You can have an encrypted FS on a file, and copy the complete FS to the untrusted server, but it is inefficient, and you get no granularity at all. In our case, the remote server runs amanda, and we want to use amanda's power to restore files selectively -- yet don't give away our privacy. (We

Just came up with some interesting (read: frustrating) problems on RHEL3 and RHEL4 today at work, and I've confirmed one of the problems on my up-to-date CentOS4 system at home. I was forced into releasing some RHEL3 systems to replace our aging RH9 systems without time for adequate testing, and that leads to problems like these. On our legacy RH9 systems, mounting a USB key is no problem,
