I've made 3 CentOS 7 installation attempts to configure a simple firewall/router box with 2 nics. I got myself into a circular scenario where NetworkManager and firewalld and /etc/sysconfig/network-scrpts/ifcfg-***** were interfering or overwriting each other. Needed to perform ifdown enp3s7 on the internal LAN nic in order to make the external internet enp2s0 reach websites and ping

Hi, on our cluster we have 5 network interfaces. I was surprised to discover that the ifcfd-* files under /etc/sysconfig/networking and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts were not the same. So I have searched a little bit, but I'm now confused: - the files under /etc/sysconfig/networking come from system-config-network. - the files under /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts are read by the

I wanted to update to CentOS 4.3 from CentOS 4.2. While updating packages using yum, there was serveral error messages, and I've found that some packages has not been updated. So I tried to update again but the packages would not be updated. I attached the messages shown below.

If you are using ethernet (and not a wireless device or some other internet connectivity) you should have an ifcfg- file for the interface.

I have an existing email system and I'm trying to addapt dovecot into it. It uses the linuxconf virtual email format. The way it is set up is there there are multiple passwd/shadow files - one for eact domain. They are in standard format. The names of these files are: /etc/vmail/passwd.domain.com /etc/vmail/shadow.domain.com I tried this: auth_userdb = passwd-file /etc/vmail/passwd.%d

I'm using the following authentication passing the full email address user at domain.com auth default { mechanisms = plain # Linuxconf passwd-like file with specified location passdb passwd-file { args = /etc/vmail/shadow.%d } # Linuxconf passwd-like file with specified location userdb passwd-file { args = /etc/vmail/passwd.%d } user = root } But - what I want to

Hello all: Here's the problem [on a RH7 running kernel 2.2.17-14 with Samba 2.0.7-21ssl and xinetd-2.1.8.9pre14]: http://localhost:901 does bring up the SWAT login dialog box.. but upon entering root as the user, followed by my root passwd in the next entry... it tells me "Authentication failed. Retry?" I can tell you that I did enter the correct root passwd, because I am root

This would make my life a lot easier in migrating to Dovecot. And it should be really easy to implement. Here's how linuxconf does it: Password files are placed in the /etc/vmail directory as follows: /etc/vmail/passwd.domain1 /etc/vmail/shadow.domain1 /etc/vmail/passwd.domain2 /etc/vmail/shadow.domain2 The password and shadow files are exactly the same format as the /etc/password and

Having a hard time figuring out something that is supposed to be easy. Tryiong to configure Dovecot so that it provides authentication to Exim for outgoing smtp. Tried different things and getting authentication socket protocol error dovecot_plain: driver = dovecot public_name = PLAIN server_socket = /var/run/dovecot/auth-client server_set_id = $auth1 auth default { # Space

If I use the socket option I can't use the count option to create more authentication processes. I get this error. Thanks in advance. dovecot: Jan 25 06:57:04 Error: auth(default): Socket already exists: /var/run/dovecot/auth-client auth default { mechanisms = plain passdb passwd-file { # Master users that can log in as anyone args = /etc/dovecot.masterusers master = yes

Hi - I've been asked to turn on autofsck on ext3 filesystems for CentOS 4 and 5 servers on reboot after a crash by adding AUTOFSCK_TIMEOUT=5 AUTOFSCK_DEF_CHECK=yes to the file /etc/sysconfig/autofsck Is this necessary for ext3 filesystems?

Hello listmates, It's been a few years since I've set up a router... and for some reason I seem to be getting hung up on this one. Does anybody have a sample iptables config file that would incorporate NAT and forwarding for a simple router? Thanks. Boris.
