Hi all I would like to install the minimal level of Centos, with yum & selinux on my servers during the basic install from CD with Anaconda and then use yum to install whatever application is major on that server, so that yum installs its dependencies only, thus keeping to the target of installing only what is needed on a server. Please advise pros/cons of this approach and how to do it. I

Want to support the following apps on some of our centos 4.2 desktops. Are yum-installable binaries/rpms available for CentOS 4.2 and which repository?

Hello, In order to overcome a known performance bug in perl-5.8.8-10 in centos 5 (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=196836) I downloaded the perl package from fedora 8 (http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/fedora/linux/releases/8/Fedora/source/SRPMS/perl-5.8.8-30.fc8.src.rpm) and mod_perl

I've got httpd and mod_perl installed, but I seem to have an application that requires part of mod_perl that doesn't seem to be properly installed into perl, notably, the 'Apache' portion. To 'fix' this, cpan would like to install either mod_perl-1.29, or alternatively to install mod_perl-2.0.2. 1.29 doesn't seem smart, and 2.0.2 absolutely will not install over the

Centos 4.2, installed mysql using yum....rpm did not create the mysql user....bug in rpm script or am I doing something wrong? but I did not do anything except yum install mysql & cat /etc/passwd ? Comments?

I sometimes need to allow sub-contracted admins root ssh access to my servers. Later, I always wonder what they did during access. Is there any shell that provides all shell abilities to the remote user but monitors/emails a designated user each command executed in the shell terminal and does not allow the user (even root) to modify the bash history file or similar shell history file, or maybe

Good afternoon, I have been developing in mod_perl for many years, and my livelihood is based on being productive with it. I''ve spent the past week reading and testing RoR and it does look good. But before I take the plunge for my next project, I was hoping to hear from other mod_perl switchers. One of the main reasons I like mod_perl is code flexibility. I like being able to insert

1) No, not necessarily. Many VM systems (Parallels, VMware, even XEN HVMs) emulate Ring 0 access for the operating system running on top of it, so there isn''t any reason for direct hardware access. However, you really should grab some older or cheaper hardware and install Xen directly on the hardware - it will be very, very slow running inside parallels. 2) There really isn''t

I have some questions for setting up & running Xen on a production but low load server running on CentOS 4.2. Does any one on the list have any experience with it? Shall I post my queries? Did not have much luck with Xen list. General comments on various issues I need some elaboration/confirmation from someone experienced can make a lot of difference to me. With best regards. Sanjay.

Hello, I have a server running CentOS 4.3 with all the latest updates. The server in question has been hacked by spammers a few times. The details of the hack have been basically the same every time. I find some directory created by the apache user account in /tmp. The new directory contains an html file, and a list of email addresses to spam and a perl script that spams all those email

I am in a precarious spot.... I run centos 4.0. I upgraded my mod_perl RPM to mod_perl 2.0.1. CGI.pm 3.10 (3.05 comes with centos 4.0) fixes some namespace issues with mod_perl vs mod_perl 2.0.1. I need to upgrade to it to 3.10. Yet that file belongs to the perl rpm that comes with centos. What do people generally do in this type of situation? Do I need to compile a new perl just to upgrade

Hello All I was planning to Implement Xen using Linux Xen dom0 based install when I saw an Ad stating that Xen had made its Xen Server free of cost (wonder if their business model is now only support?) with Tools & Management Application.

Hello Looking to build CentOS based micro EC2 instance bootable from Amazon EBS. Want that the image be minimal, so that I can add only the rpms I want.

Hello all, I have just testen Xen on my Fedora machine. Would like to test Xen on a Centos machine for production use evaluation. Anyone know of a repo which maintains a full/partial complement of XEN rpms & associated tools? Any suggestions?

Hello All I made the mistake of assuming all Intel motherboards would be Linux compatible out of the box and bought one without checking support information. And now on initial install the Network is not working....the Network port is not detected at all. I have bought an Intel board DG41RQI (http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/DG41RQ/index.htm) which does not support Linux Out of
