similar to: named server

I started the named server on CentOS and it seems to resolve DNS request OK, but it does not seem to retain the info for very long. From what I can tell using "dig", a domain's ip address is retained for less than 12 hours. So in the morning, it takes 4+ seconds to resolve again the first time. Is there an adjustment somewhere for this or is the caching named support not enabled by

I have the vncserver running on CentOS 4, but when I log in using vncviewer from another box, I don't see my gnome desktop, just a fancy terminal. I suspect I need to edit the ~/.vnc "xstartup file, but what do I add to fix this. On all other distros I have tried, the vncserver serves up my gnome desktop by default. -- Lee Parmeter Emperor, linXos - The Flying Penguin

I downloaded and installed apt and synaptic using yum ok, but are there corresponding apt repo's for the yum ones? If so, what are they? -- Lee Parmeter Emperor, linXos - The Flying Penguin http://www.linXos.com Linux Registered User #337161 'It's free. It works.

I want to mirror an existing 40GB data only drive using software Raid1 on my new CentOS 4 server. The existing drive is connected to a Promise Ultra 100 TX2 controller (non-raid). I have read about mdadm and understand how to create the Raid1 on /dev/mdxx devices. However I would like to know if the existing data on the orignal 40GB drive in the system will be destroyed when I create the raid with

I created an account on the Forums this morning, but I got an error saying they were having a problem sending e-mail. I sent a message to the webmaster and no response either. So I can't post to the forum until my account is activated. Are the forums new? By the amount of traffic on the list, this must be where most people resolved their problems. I am thinkgng about installing CentOS 4 on my

Greetings: I'm just installed Centos-4 on an IBM T-21 laptop. So far so good. Now I'd like to pop in a wireless lan adapter. I'm looking at a buying a Linksys WPC54G adapter (although I haven't done so yet). After doing some searching, it looks like the best way to get this card working is via ndiswrapper [http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net] and then to use Windoze

sorry i figured this out after deleting the other parts of the thread. just run vino-preferences as the user who runs the main x display. it will have various options to enable and as soon as you do that you can get to hostname:0 via vnc. works quite well.

While working on getting software raid working, I was unable to shutdown CentOS normally. After a forced power shutdown, I noticed that my gnome background was missing and I could not change the background image or color. Trying to shutdown the server normally did not work either, it would just hang. I suspected that the file system was damaged and was not fixed automaticly on boot. I tried the

The Vino package is installed on my CentOS 4 server, but I am unable to connect to it using vncviewer (vncviewer srvhost:0) from a client. However, I am not sure if it is "running" or how to "start" it if this is needed. The client machine in this case is running Ubuntu Hoary (gnome 2.10). The connection is just rejected. So, I am now wondering what else needs to be done to

I'm confused about something. It's the way Asterisk handles the A leg (ie the first party dialed) on an originate command via the Manager Interface. Lets say our originate commands looks like this: ACTION: Originate Async: yes Timeout: 60000 Exten: callback Channel: SIP/5551212 at provider Variable: destination=SIP/8675309 at provider Callerid: 5551212 Context: default ActionID: 849120

Hello, I have a question about using the layout command within a function. I've written function that uses layout to create a figure from 2 plots. This works fine to create a figure. When I use par(mfrow = c(2,2)) to create multiple plots, it seems that the layout command resets the mfrow parmeter. Is there a way for me to avoid this problem? For example practice<- function() {

Thanks for your comments. I understand as DNS uses UDP that there could be some DNS queries which might get lost if the CPU or network is too busy but the thing is that this server is not so busy really. It has 2 cores with 4 GB of RAM and the CPU averages to 2% usage. The network averages to 1 Mbit/s traffic and there are around 600-700 processes running for 1100 mailboxes. Note here that this

I'm setting up a bind server as well as a samba domain on a machine (timcserv03). I initially set the local domain up in bind as thisismycompany.local (already owning the name thisismycompany.com), however I started to see that there could be issues with using .local, so wanted to go in a safer direction. It seems the best logical internal domain name would be local.thisismycompany.com. Note

Thanks for adding clarity Peter. I'm having trouble framing my questions so

Hi, I'm thinking of introducing Asterisk on Linux for IP PBX. Now I'm using ISP that has VoIP service and I have VoIP terminal box for that ISP and a SIP account for SIP server of the ISP. Now, what I would like to do is the following. A. Setup IP PBX on Linux by using Asterisk. B. For IP-PSTN gateway, configure Asterisk to use my ISP's SIP account and connect to my ISP's IP

I have a stock CentOS 5 system as far as email (sendmail) is concerned that is on our corporate LAN. I am not trying to set up a mail server; I merely want our CentOS systems to be able to send out emails. This works as long as the recipient's domain is our local domain. Any email send to recipients that are not in our local domain get stuck in the queue: # mailq

Hi all, I have a problem using named with different CentOS5 servers (2 servers): all they are really slow to resolv any internet address and most of time fails to resolv. This situation differs if I use "forwarders" servers like opendns: resolving names it is really really quickly. And I don't understand why. On the other hand I have tested three DNS servers using Windows

I am trying to add 127.0.0.1 to my resolv.conf. I added it through the system-config-network but if I reboot, its gone. I do not have the caching nameserver package installed. My ISP's nameservers are there. It must have something to do with DHCP. Also, in the network config GUI, should I select the IPv6 option for either or both network cards? TIA
