I've got a fresh RHEL AS 4-U2 installation on a Dell PE2850 server. I downloaded and installed the latest RPMs: ocfs2-2.6.9-22.ELsmp-1.0.7-1.i686.rpm ocfs2-tools-1.0.2-1.i386.rpm ocfs2console-1.0.2-1.i386.rpm I was able to start the console, but when I try to run cluster->configure_nodes, I get the following error message: Could not start cluster stack. This must be resolved before any

Hello, I have a strange (for me) problem with these two machines : - Client, a CentOS-5.7 workstation ; - Server, a CentOS-6.2 headless, up-to-date server. From Client, I want to use xauth on Server with the help of rsh (yes, I know, ssh and all this sort of things... another time.) When SELinux is in permissive mode on Server, all these commands perform as expected : rsh Server

Lordy, I've been having problems with this darn thing, so I hope someone can help me. :s My troubles started when I downloaded the latest erlang and ejabberd packages. I crashed and burned very quickly, trying two or three different versions of erlang along with several of ejabberd 2.0.x. Finally, after a week of pain, I admitted defeat, wiped the whole lot and installed the binary on the

A little while ago I changed my UPS to Leibert and installed NUT. Everything worked as expected. Today I tried to use the MultiLink Viewer icon from the desktop, but it simply accepted the root password without apparently doing anything. I can run the viewer directly (as root) from a file manager. The icon is owned by me, but the application is set to run as root. I suspect that the

I have updated my instructions on how to roll your own CentOS-4 Live CD. I also made a script which does it all for you. I have also got instructions on how to turn the Live CD into a PXE bootable Live version.

Hello, I have been using Fedora Core, Samba, and Active Directory to provide authentication services for Windows based users for a few years now, but as an experiment I wanted to accomplish the same service with SUSE 9.3 . I have been able to get this configuration to run successfully with RH9, FC1, FC2, FC3, and FC4 (buggy but works), but with SUSE I have stalled a bit. I feel I have

When starting puppet from init.d with SELinux enabled it runs in xinitrc_t while it should (at least imo) run in unconfined_t. Running in xinitrc_t lead to *really* strange things.
