First, I am not a RedHat or linux newbie. I simply have not had to do what I am getting ready to do, and I want to see if I am going to run into a problems... My HDA drive is failing (I can hear the occasional click from it and I am seeing Smart errors, the transfer rate is slow but all my data is there). I have 3 partitions on it, the /, /boot/ and my game servers (this is also the drive the

I can't seem to get consistant outbound caller ID working correctly. I have set the fromuser and callerid field in my sip.conf for my TelaSIP peer, but half the time it shows up as "No Caller ID" on my cell phone, other times it shows it correctly. Using asterisk CVS. Any ideas? Doug

I have been having a problem with the test releases...I am now using Test 59. When I delete a message using SquirrelMail (IMAP) the message stays in the message list....but you can't open it anymore because it can't be found, if I logout and log back in...the message is gone from the list. I thought it could be a problem with the cache, so I added mail_never_cache_fields = MessagePart

Does anyone have a patch or information resource on implementing POP before SMTP with sendmail and DoveCot? I implemented it using a qpopper patch before we swiched to DoveCot for Maildirs. We have been using DoveCot for almost a year now and love it better than any other IMAP or POP3 server.

Hi I''m using wondershaper like script. But noticed imperfect scheduling. By googling, I found some patches that takes the aal5 atm overhead in the scheduling algorithms. http://www.adsl-optimizer.dk/ADSL-optimizer/ Before trying it, has anyone tried these patches? they apply on 2.4.29 kernel and 2.6.9 TC. I use centos4 with a 2.6 kernel, so I can''t try these easily. Thanks

Hi folks, While investigating OpenBSD's cron implementation, I found that they set the systemwide crontab (a.k.a. /etc/crontab) to be readable by the superuser only. The attached patch will bring this to FreeBSD by moving crontab out from BIN1 group and install it along with master.passwd. This change should not affect the current cron(1) behavior.

My housemate has formalized a sortof new attack against unix-style operating systems. He''s a BSD fan, so that''s where he developed the attack. He asked me to check Linux, which I did. It seems Linux is not vulnerable to it. This attack is going out to BUGTRAQ tonight. The attack isn''t too serious because it requires physical access to the console, but it

Greetings On centos 5, if I ssh in as a regular non-superuser account and go to the sbin dir to issue a reboot command, it wont do it as says you must be superuser If you are on the console logged in as a non-superuser account and do the same thing, it will reboot. Is this a feature, or a bug? - rh

Hello, For some time now have been trying to connect a Samba-3.0.14a-0.4 server running on SuSE Ent 9 linux server to our Exchange 2003 (running on Server 2003 Std w/ SP1) server which is also the AD server for our domain. I can connect to the shares using the AD as the authentication source, so the basic functionality is there but some command output does not show in the way i expect

I appologize for the long, new-ish question, but after a few days of trying to work a solution by reading through the list archives and WIKI and coming up with what I thought would work, I think I'm just not getting a fine detail. I titled this thread "Setting up Security Groups" because I'm trying to set up some sip user groups with certain calling rights, e.g., one group of

Hi all, I am a newcomer to CentOS but slightly less so to Linux in general (FC4-F9). In short, I am trying to make an old SB Vibra 16C (ISA) sound card work in Centos 5. To achieve this, support for ISA bus and ISA PnP is apparently needed in kernel. Therefore, a custom kernel needs to be built. -- Yes, I have read all the warnings of lack of support, etc. As a first step, I had to build the

Can anybody provide the expected response to an SMB2 CREATE request that includes ACCESS_SYSTEM_SECURITY in the DesiredAccess mask? I?m particularly interested in cases where the SMB client is connected as an authenticated user with administrative (superuser) privileges on the share, and has made the request on a directory. Should such a client expect full (read/change) access to the SACL (under

I started testing Dovecot 1.0 Test 22! I loved the performance improvements, althought dovecot has been very fast for us from the beginning. However, now I am testing test 24 and 25, and I am seeing these errors in the dovecot log and squirrelmail is giving me a ERROR : Connection dropped by imap-server. Query: STATUS "Mailing Lists.SpamAssassin" (MESSAGES UNSEEN RECENT) This is the

Hello, I am using SquirrelMail with the 1.0 releases, and I have even backed up to the latest stable release based on 1.0. I am using MailDirs. When I delete a message, the message still shows up in the message list until either I log out and back in or a new message arrives in that folder. Any ideas? Thanks Doug Eubanks doug at simflex.com The speed of time is one-second per second.

Hi, I have a setup in which I run sshd as unprivileged user at dedicated port to serve specific application. It is working perfectly! One tweak I had to do, since the AuthorizedKeysCommand feature requires file to be owned by root, I had to use root owned command at root owned directory, although it does not add a security value. At auth2-pubkey.c::user_key_command_allowed2(), we have the

Hi everyone, I updated the kernel from 3.10.0-514.16.1.el7.x86_64 to 3.10.0-693.2.2.el7.x86_64 .
