similar to: centericq 4.21.0 on CentOS 4

I need to update a CentOS 4.0 system to CentOS 4.3. In my opinion, I should start out with a "yum update yum centos-yumconf" and then follow that with a "yum update". Does anyone have any other input as to what other packages might be needed to be updated with yum and centos-yumconf before the mass upgrade? Thanks, Barry

Hello, we have enabled yum-updatesd on our dozen real and virtual machines running CentOS 5.2 some time ago and are very satisfied: afarber at ablsw01:~> grep -v ^# /etc/yum/yum-updatesd.conf [main] run_interval = 7200 updaterefresh = 1200 emit_via = email dbus_listener = no do_update = yes do_download = yes do_download_deps = yes (it would be good to make it use the proxy though...)

Is anyone successfully using a Belkin F5D6050 USB Wireless in CentOS 4.2? If so, what driver are you using? Did you have to do anything special to make it work? At this point, I have downloaded, compiled installed and loaded the latest drivers from http://atmelwlandriver.sourceforge.net but lvnet is unable to find my adapter. I've tried every driver module that it created, and still no

I am going to be setting up an Intel 2200bg card this evening. I was wondering if anyone is using this (successfully) with CentOS 4. The directions look straightforward, but please let me know if you had to do anything interesting/undocumented to make it work. I am also wondering if people are using the driver provided with the current CentOS 4 kernel or if people are using the most recent

A while back, there was mention that the release of CentOS 4.3 would bring a ppc32 version. Is this still in the works? If so, is it scheduled to be released at the same time as the more popular releases, or at a later time? Thanks, Barry

When using things like links, centericq, or ntsysv on my fedora core 2 box the fonts in ncurses based programs look fine, but on my centos4.2 box all the pipes and dashes end up looking like ?????????????????? Does anyone know how to fix this problem ?

--NoDisclaim-- I cant use an editor to mass update and change usernames as this is a part of an automatic useradd routine written in an ancient legacy application which calls useradd and usermod, we have been using this software for more than 15 years, so its hard for me to argue for a rewrite, so im forced to bend the OS instead it isnt a problem on redhat 8.0, so somewhere in the patches for

Thanks for reply. I replaced break=y with init=/bin/sh. In that case case system just hangs with the following message. "Freeing unused kernel memory : 400k freed". Thanks!!

It affects RHEL6 which runs 2.6.32, they backported the features that it affects. If the above openvz kernel was based on a RHEL6 kernel (and I'd guess it was) then it's affected. Peter

Are there plans to release kernel-2.6.9-67.0.15.plus.c4.i586.rpm ?? Thanks, Barry

Has anyone been successful at using the TARPIT target in iptables under CentOS 4? I am using CentOS 4.3, fully updated with iptables-1.2.11-3.1.RHEL4 and kernel-2.6.9-34.107.plus.c4 Doing a locate on TARPIT returns: # locate TARPIT /lib/iptables/libipt_TARPIT.so This makes me think that the TARPIT target would be valid, however when I try to use it, I get the following reponse: # iptables

I have a mail server that handles several domains. One of these domains has decided to use Postini. For those not familiar with Postini, you set your MX records to use their mail servers. They filter mail, and deliver you only the clean virus/spam free mail. The idea is to only allow incoming mail from their mail servers so spammers are unable to send to your mail server directly. This is

I want to seriously work with IPv6 and not have stray IPv4 functions messing with me. So in /etc/sysconfig/network, I commented out NETWORKING=yes. I have NETWORKING_IPV6=yes. In /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts I altered ifcfg-eth0, setting BOOTPROTO=none. That was enough for eth0 to only have IPv6 working on it (have IPV6INIT=yes and IPV6_AUTOCONF=yes). But lo had IPv4. So I commented
