Raid with one disk?
Is it possible to set up a single disk raid (kind of redundant to call a single disk an array) but I've got a single SATA drive in the machine not doing anything. It's a 10k maxtor 74G drive, and what I really want is just to backup two home partitions. I can always reinstall the OS, but the data can't be recovered that easily. The mobo supports raid-0,1 and jbod. Suggestions? --

Evolution
When I set up the Evolution mail agent, I could find no way to change the outbound port from 25 to 587. I have to do this due to port 25 being blocked by the cable company. Thunderbird is no problem. Altho I don't particularly use Evolution as a mail agent, there are times when I might use it, but its worthless without being able to send mail out to my server. Did I miss something in

Clarification
List, Being pretty new to CentOS and such, can someone answer a couple of questions about yum and up2date? I think I got the basic info, but I'm a bit confused about what does what. I configured yum to use the dag repo (I think) but now and then, I get the red circle from up2date stuff on the upper menubar. I have been using the up2date function to grab the latest bits when

repositories
I think perhaps I missed something in some discussions over the last week or so.. I was reminded last night that the repository for CentOS 4.1 had been moved to "vault" .whatever .. Is that correct? What should I have in the /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo ? For future reference, is there a document that gets updated when the base repository changes? Thanks.. -- Snowman

Sensors-applet-0.2.2
List, I grabbed the sensors-applet file, and assumed there would be some note about how to execute it or add it to the panel. Nada.. in the README, there is an indication of ./configure --prefix=/usr and that's it. From what I read on a web page about it, and the screenshots, there should be something to configure the values. Heck, I can't even find the file now that its

Packages
I am in need of the udunits and udunits-devel packages. I know I remember seeing the udunits package on the CD's but don't recall seeing the udunits-devel. Looking at the rpm-pbone.net, I only found versions avilable for FC. Would it break a bunch of stuff to install both packages on a 4.1-i386 system ? Also looked via yum, at Dag's repository, and mirrors, but nothing shows

Equivalent command or file
List, is there an equivalent on Linux as "watch" under FreeBSD, as well as the "snp" or snoop device that permits one to watch what is going on in another terminal? Yes there are privacy issues here, but in a home system with a couple of folks logged in trying to help with compiling stuff, it'd be nice to see what and how they are doing it. Thanks... -- Snowman

Yum
This may be considered a newbie question, and for me, yum is a new tool. I have discovered via yum, I am *supposed* to have libf2c (386) and libf2c (x86-64) installed. Searching the two libs, I find I only have the 32-bit version installed, and I need both. Should I use yum to remove the pkgs, and then reinstall, or should I use rpm to do the installs? Again, I'm from the BSD camp, so

O.T. Evolution Question.
This has bugged me from the get go, and I keep forgetting to ask about it. Is it not possible to drag 'n drop messages from the main reading window into other folders, much as Thunderbird and the other company mail program , MS Outlook? thanks Snowman -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Motherboards
Does anyone have any experience with Super-Micro brand motherboards // dual Xeon cpu's? Had to swap out my Tyan piece of junk and going back with the S-M board. I believe it has similar north/southbridge chips on it -- at least they are the intel MCH ICH5R and PXH plus the 82546GB. One area that the Tyan board was seriously lacking in was in the hardware monitoring department. The S-M

Netcdf
Can anyone tell me if there exists an rpm for netcdf-3.6.0-p1 for Centos x86-64? Also, are there any details of what was used to compile it, i.e., ifort, pgf, g77, etc. I'm looking for a version compiled with ifort... Sam -- Snowman

Xhosts file
I posted a question a few days back to see if anyone could tell me where the default X0.hosts file should/does reside. Searching the system turns up nothing, and did not find any info in any of the man pages, other than it would reside in /etc, but doesn't. Setting a host access permission does not become permanent, and I'd really like to find out where the thing should be so I can

Radio software
Hi List, Does anyone know of any type of radio tuner software available for CentOS in either 32 or 64-bit versions? The card is an ATI X600. I've got the video driver from ATI installed, but they do not have any other user level software available. I think I remember reading something about some software being available for the BT chipset, but I'm a tad out of date on that.

Incompatible Libraries
Fellow users, I'm running into some rather odd behavior trying to compile some software, and would like to know if there is maybe a fix or if I should revert back to a 32-bit version of Centos. I'm trying to compile NCAR Graphics, as well as some other weather related software on this machine which is running the Centos 4.1 x86-64 version. It's a dual Xeon processor.

Library
Can someone tell me where I can find glibc-2.3.3 for either x86-64 or most likely i386. My yum stuff must be broken, or I don't know how to use it cause it can't find the lib. I'm looking on the CD's also, but so far, no luck. Thanks... -- Snowman

Install from CD bug
I commented on this a few posts back, but thought it was perhaps a fluke of mine, but I'm not so sure now. Tonight, I tried without success to install the mysql package from the 4.1 CD's and I got the same non-event as before. After selecting the package with "add/remove software", I checked the mysql box, then added the server and perl modules to complete things. The CD

Broken up2date & install from CD ?
I've run into some problems I can't explain. I tried to install the mysql package from the 4.1 CD's and the installer just sat there telling me to insert the CD into the drive and click OK. I did that, and it just blinked once, then returned to the same thing.. hit the OK button, etc., etc., again and again. Wound up having to yum install the mysql package which went OK afik.

Where to look or command
List, I've got a process(s) that have been exiting on a signal 11, but not all the time. I suspect it's memory related, and I was wondering, is there any way to tell exactly how much memory a particular process has in use at the point it sigsev's ? I can't sit here and watch top or the system monitor, but thought maybe something might be saved somewhere after the fact.

Players (O.T.)
Sorry for the off topic posting, but I'm not a real music person and know little about what software will do what. Without turning this into a big discussion for pro or con, could someone drop a line or 3 just stating the name(s) of some type music players? I'd probably want something that would play CD's and perhaps mp3's. I don't guess there is a "catch-all" like
