Has anyone on this list got sendmail and cyrus-imapd configured so that email addressed in the form username+folder at example.com gets delivered directly to cyrus' user.username.inbox.folder? I have been tinkering with this on and off for about a week and no matter what I have tried, all traffic addressed in the +folder format ends up in user.username.inbox instead. If anyone has gotten

I am encountering an odd problem with su. Up until quite recently I was able to connect to one of my servers (CentOS-5.2) via ssh as an ordinary user and then, from the shell, perform an $ su -l to obtain root access. Now when I try to do this I see the following: $ su -l Password: su: incorrect password If, instead of I ssh to this machine as the root user ($ ssh -l root host) and enter

HW = HPQ DC7700 DuoCore 1.8GHz, 4 x 2GB RAM, 1 x 1TB SATA (AHCI) OS = CentOS-5.2 ix_64 (xen) I am experimenting with Xen and with virtual machines in general for the first time. In consequence I have many questions. However, the one that I wish answered at the moment is simple: Given a DVD containing the CentOS-5.2_Final (i386) distribution mounted at /media/CentOS_5.2_Final on Dom0, what

What is the correct combination of packages to configure and manage VMs via virt-manager undet CentOS-5.4? If I use qemu then while virt-manager works I obtain SELinux alerts with respect to the real-time clock. If instead of qemu I use kvm-qemu-img then virt-manager simply does not work. It starts but it does not find any form of qemu and the selection boxes are all greyed out. Further, do I

I am trying to set up a test kvm virtual machine on a core2 quad system. I have managed to thread my way through bridging eth0 and I have a CentOS-5.4 dvd iso prepared. Using virt-manager, when I try and add a new guest then I get the error reproduced below. Now, I know that I can 'fix' this by building a local mod via audit2allow and installing via semodule. However, I cannot seem to

A short while ago I reported a network interruption while performing a YUM update on a server. A check of the logs as recommended by a list member indicated that the update process had succeeded. However, I am now encountering the following problem on that same server and my nastily suspicious mind is trying to tell me that the previous event and this situation are somehow related. >

Note: I am digest subscriber so if you could copy me directly on any reply to the list I would appreciate it very much. I sent this to the OpenSSH list (secureshell at securityfocus.com) yesterday and received no response so I am asking here in hopes that someone else has run across this problem on CentOS. We have encountered a situation that requires sftp access to one of our server by an

I am experiencing a problem with yum on one of my CentOS-5.5 systems. Specifically, on Friday past (July 16), I ran yum update as root. Yum displayed all of the outdated packages and asked if I wanted to proceed. An answered yes. This first package downloaded was nss. At this point yum simply stopped processing or responding. A ctrl-c at the yum session terminal window did not interrupt the

A short time ago a message on this list referred to an OSS project called ledgersmb. I am having a deal of difficulty getting this installed and as the web page at www.ledgersmb.org yields a "page not found" error and the ledger-smb-users mailing list seems very lightly used I wonder if someone here could help me out? I have ploughed through all of the perl dependencies for ledgersmb

Hello fellow CentOS'ers- I'm trying to install a package from a not-to-be-named repository (privately operated for some proprietary software). They currently have a package I need but offer multiple versions. However, if I simply 'yum install packagename' it defaults to pulling down the most recent package. I would like to pull down the older version of the package but I'm

hdwr HPQ DC7700S ix86 Core Duo I have just updated this CentOS-5.3 box to 5.4. This process was not satisfactory. While the update packages all downloaded without problem the update process itself stalled at several points. By stalled I mean that at some point the entire process stopped for hours. The packages at which it stalled included evince, evolution, totem and vinfo. There may have

There are no messages in the syslog file relating

I am trying to install Ruby-1.8.7p302 on a CentOS-5.5 server in preparation for a Rails-3 application deployment.

That too completed without error. However, when I try to install the resulting package using: yum localinstall
