I'm in the process of upgrading an old server which is running uw-imap to a new one running Dovecot. With the old machine, unfortunately, my users had the opportunity to store their e-mails in various locations. For example, some have their mail boxes stored in ~/mail/[various mbox files], others ALSO have a ~/mail/clients/[various mbox files] and yet others simply stored them in their

I installed CentOS 5 on a server today (wiping clean the drive which had 4.4 on it). During installation I picked the correct timezone, location and all. Yet, upon booting the machine, it seems to think that it's 6 hours earlier than it really is. The BIOS has the correct time and date on it. /etc/locatime was originally what /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Denver would've

Hello folks, I'm about to install Centos on a new server and this will be my first "exposure" if you will to Centos. I come from an RH/Fedora background. Anyway, is there a list somewhere that will tell me what UPS batteries are compatible with Centos 4 (brand/model)? I figured before I go out and buy something I better check to see what's supported. Thanks.

Hi folks, After some more trial and error, I was able to get a bit further in the game with the permission issues I had (previous message was titled 'Samba permissions...) Now I'm able to get onto the system, browse and read/copy/delete files off of the shares. What I can't do is put stuff on because I get a locking error. The setup is as follows: Server 1 -->

Dear Concerns, I have backup script which TAR the data, makes one copy on local hardisk and then FTP to another machine. Last few days i m facing problem with it. The cron job only makes the copy automatically on local disk but doesnot automatically FTP to another machine. I ran the script manually, the script runs successfully. For trouble shooting i displayed the output in some file and shown

So what does everyone out there use to generate web statistics these days? Are the tried and true awstats or webalizer still the best out there? Ray

Now that I've got the server serving my python pages, I'm getting this error: [Fri Nov 06 11:50:40 2009] [error] [client 66.248.168.98] (2)No such file or directory: exec of '/var/www/html/angrynates.com/global_solutions/index.py' failed, referer: http://angrynates.com/global_solutions/ [Fri Nov 06 11:50:40 2009] [error] [client 66.248.168.98] Premature end of script headers:

Hi folks, I have a production server that's currently running 5.0 with all updates. What's the easiest, or perhaps best way to upgrade it to 5.1, with minimal down time? The downtime is critical, so I need to have it be a short as possible. I can live with an hour or two, but larger is going to be a pain. Suggestions? -- W | It's not a bug - it's an undocumented

I just installed CentOS 4 on a new server and now I'm looking for updates that have been released. I like to keep a local mirror of all the updates so I can apply them to other machines easier/faster (this of course assuming I end up installing CentOS on more servers.) So, where are those updates mirrored? With RH/FC, I can hit any mirror and rsync the updates folders. Is there an

I figured I try if I can mirror the base and updates repos locally. There's no tutorial for that, only one about creating your own repo of packages which is not the same. So, I just mirrored all the stuff with wget and changed the baseurl in the repo files and hoped that's enough. Works. So easy you don't need a tutorial. *But* I then realized that the updates directory contains

Anyone know where I can get a 'netmask' rpm for CentOS? I have it on my Fedora systems (it's in extras) but can't find it in CentOS' extras.

Hi. Several months ago, I posted my first pass at a patch to transfer Mac OS X HFS+ metadata (resource forks and Finder metadata) to non-HFS+ filesystems (Linux, Solaris, etc). I finally got a chance to update the patch to reflect suggestions offered on the list. Thanks for the ideas, this version should be a big improvement. The diff and a binary (and a fuller explanation) can be found at:

Define out of order in this case just so I know for sure what you mean. What my solution does, or at least does reliably in my case, is make sure the interfaces are in the same order once installed as the install kernel saw them. It won't re-order them to be sequential based on bus, mac or driver. I am working on that but it will also include naming the devices based on the module

So I'm in a bit of a pickle ... I have a machine that needs to be repurposed from WinXP to CentOS. I downloaded the CentOS DVD and all then realized ... I don't have a keyboard/mouse for the machine. It only has USB ports on it, and I don't have a single available USB keyboard that I can plug in. Bit of a problem. Usually what I do is install via VNC anyway, but that is contingent

Nope, that completely takes over '/mnt' and everything else that's in there becomes invisible. However, I do believe you're on to something here. Looking back at the other, working setup, I do realize now that I did the same, where the path was '/mnt/<something>' and the autofs mounts are within that, so they became '/mnt/<something>/<mount-point>'

Here is my script for post install if you want to try it. In order for the shuffling to not occur you do need to create the udev rules file somehow. I am not sure how mangled this will be in email but it is worth a try. It should run OK with nothing else. I have a better version in the works but the enhancements are mainly useful for Fedora 19-21. I did forget to say I also block

I have a Dell server that has two built-in ethernet devices. When I kickstart the machine, they are correctly identified as eth0 and eth1 (correctly meaning they correspond to the physical device ports 1 and 2). I need a third one and want that to come up as eth2. After adding the hardware, kickstart now fails because for some reason it goes through a rename process where it makes the newly added
