I am trying, without success, to compile a custom locale for the utf-8 character set. I have issued this command: localedef --no-archive -f UTF-8 -i /usr/share/i18n/locales/en_CA at yyyy-mmm-dd en_CA at yyyy-mmm-dd.utf8 which produces the requisite files without reporting an error but which none-the-less insists on using the iso-8859-1 charset: LC_ALL=en_CA at yyyy-mm-dd locale charmap

I am trying to determine how to customize the date and time display of system utilities and user programs using the locale settings. What I really want is some sort of utility program that does the same thing for CentOS as the Regions Settings Control Panel app. for MicroSoft Windows accomplishes, but I have no hope of seeing that. I have traced the login locale processing through /etc/profile

I have a KVM vm running CentOS-6.8 on a host also running CentOS-6.8. This instance is used for occasional development projects which require segregation. Thus it is seldom accessed. At some point in the recent past this guest developed an issue with starting. Specifically these messages were found in the system log files: /var/log/messages-20170312:Mar 10 16:31:06 vhost04 kernel: dracut:

Not wanting to build Samba4 myself I spent some time searching for rpm packages suitable for use on our CentOS-6.5 hosts. I discovered http://enterprisesamba.com/ which provides rpms (sernet-samba-4.1.4-7) for CentOS-6. However, I cannot find an online support community for this package and requests for help made to the samba.org list have met with absolute silence. Since my requests had to do

CentOS-6.4 x86_64 Firefox-17.0.10ESR I am getting a missing plugin report from Firefox when trying to load this url: http://yyyy.xxx.net//sco_launchv5.1.cfm?regKey=22349&CFID=0&CFTOKEN=1ED09F3E-5335-471C-BF35C63C0CAC4019 A Firefox search for plugins reports none found. I believe that this URL refers to a Coldfusion script. Given the context I am working in I believe that this script

I acknowledge beforehand that this list is not the primary place to discuss these specific applications, but I am pressed for time and many of you have a great deal of experience with these two products. We have MailScanner configured to use SpamAssassin and it works exactly as we wanted. Up until now. I now need to allow messages classified as spam to be delivered to a single mailbox. I

Ok, on to new swamps. I would like to enable PPTP on CentOS4 to accept connections from clients running MicroSoft Win2K and XP pro from outside our firewall. I am testing pptpd-1.2.3-0 and tells me that I need kernel support for MPPE, which I suppose is MicroSoft's own form of PtoP encryption. Is there a way of doing this without rebuilding the kernel? If so, how? Regards, Jim --

I am trying to create a one line command that will: 1. Find all files ending in .conf 2. tar these over ssh to a remote server. I have reached this point in my trials. a. I can find the files. b. I can tar them locally. c. I can get a simple fileset tar'ed to a remote server over ssh using tar -zvcf - /some/fileset | ssh host.domain.tld "cat > /backup/tarfile.tar.gz d. I cannot

I have two supplementary questions. First, what is the significance of the $() construct in bash and how does it interact with tar? Does it take the place of

We have a potential requirement to produce a limited number of embossed PVC cards with magnetic encoding for an internal project. We are considering obtaining a read/write device (likely USB) suitable for encoding HICO magnetic stripes. Has anyone here any experience with suitable hardware and software that runs on CentOS-6? If so then what was used and what problems were encountered getting

I would like to create a bootable DVD containing Win7 from an official Microsoft ISO that I have on a CentOS-6.5 box. Is this even possible? If so then how is it done using CentOS? If I must create a Win7 repair disk on a Windows machine then this will be possible, but somewhat logistically challenging. I would much rather just get it done with the tools I have to hand. -- ***

I was creating some directories (mkdir xxxx) while cd'ed to a mounted LV.

Thank you for the information. We are starting a new project on a dedicated development server. We therefore are looking at designing for v.8 from the outset, anticipating that this will be the common production version by the time the project is completed. I had previously built an early v8 release of Postgresql on CentOS 4, but that machine suffered a catastrophic disk failure and the

I am experiencing a folder display problem in squirrelmail [SF issue 1471703] which is caused by messages containing a From: header whose data string matches the following regexp: =?iso-2022-jp?B?[.*]=?=[.*] It has been suggested that I require php-iconv extentions to solve this but I seem unable to locate a CentOS or RedHat-EL4 rpm providing this package. Can anyone point me to a location

I would like to express my appreciation to the maintainers of the CentOS distribution for the degree of thoroughness evidenced in the set up of the test repository at http://dev.centos.org. I was casting around for how to configure my yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo to handle a few packages that I must obtain from the test area (firefox, which seems to have moved since yesterday, and postgresql). I

Because of a folder display problem caused by certain character encodings used in some email headers we had previously updated to squirrelmail-1.4.6-1 and installed squirrelmail-i18n-1.4.6-1 to cope. Yum is now trying to update our installation with the latest offical Centos release but there does not seem to be a corresponding squirrelmail-i18n rpm available in any of the repositories which is

We deployed our first CentOS-4 based workstation this past spring to see if we can conveniently replace all, or at least most, of our MS-Win based user systems with Linux boxes instead. Generally this trial unit has proved a success but there is one lingering problem that I cannot seem to find a straight-forward answer to: Is there an administrator override to a user's password protected

I am setting up a laptop (Sony VAIO PCG-4?) for my learning disabled son (age 11). I have previously used MicroSoft 2Kpro and XPpro / Office 2K platforms for text-to-speech applications as that is what most commercial LD Assist software is written for. However, with MS now requiring that one inventories ones entire computer software configuration with them before getting updates to their

I need to enable pg support on one of my CentOS servers. I know nothing about PHP but DRUPAL requires a DB backend and we have standardized on pg rather than mysql. The PHP.net page devoted to the subject of pg says that to enable pg support PHP must be built with the flag "--with-pgsql[=DIR]" and that the required support extension must be loaded via the /etc/php.ini file with the
