greetings has anyone here setup a CentOS box to use as a home or business gateway for children through young adults or otherwise? i realize this is a generalized question and that iptables and many other things exist that could be implemented. im looking for a way to give the youngster the benefit of the doubt and allow them to "obey God/parents" first before they have to be totally

Greetings, Can anyone relate experience(s) installing CentOS on Compaq rack mount servers units please? Easy no problem, easy some issues, or ghastly do not do it under any circumstances... ;) Basically, I'm looking at some used/refurb dual PIII units and will run RAID on Compaq built in SCSI or is it easy to pop in some 3ware SATA in them? Let me know in terms of CentOS 3 and/or 4 please.

This causes a signficant (10%+) performance hit. On

greetings, i just know i have read several times on this list and in other places that on a RAID5 array that the MBR should be placed on the /boot partition. is this truly correct and if so, why? my experiences of putting the MBR on the /boot partition are contrary to that it will even work and boot that way... comments please? regards, - rh -- Robert Hanson Abba Communications

Hi All, I have a coupla queries about my 2 latest installs of CentOS 4-3. When I first installed and logged in as the initial user, everything went well, and the system was fast. A reboot, and 2nd login gave the same. But, upon connecting to the net, the system hung at sendmail for almost 4mins, and then gave an error at login about not finding the host, and that Gnome may not work

greetings would someone please point me to an excellent server exercising, stressing, and/or testing program that will run on centos 4? i want one that will not out and out destroy a machine so to speak... ...meaning testing is one thing, yet pounding a box in the hard drive department over and above the cause or unnecessarily does not appeal to me. fyi the box i want to test/stress this time

i am new to the x86 64 bit centos versions. ive always used the 32 bit version on industrial type HP hardware for those of you that are running x86 64 bit centos, other than specific hardware issues, are you finding that 5.x centos is better than 4.x centos for x86 64 bit processing? does it matter in the amd vrs intel hardware differences what you choose to use for centos version? other

Hi, I'm new to both this list and to openssh. I just downloaded 2.9.9 and did ./configure ; make ; make install. Everything was OK, no errors. But I must have done something wrong. Because after I started the sshd daemon, I can only connect with the "root" user. I have done ssh-keygen on other users but they do not work... I'm running Linux. I havent changed any configurations.

Hello. I thought I'd introduce myself. I'm the guy that wrote kexis way back when. For those of you that dont know, kexis was written before flac, and pretty much does what flac does, although its not nearly as nice or robust. I wrote kexis actualy cause I was interested in playing around with lossless compression and shorten was about the only tool that was linux friendly, but had a
