Hi guys, I've planning out my upgrade to CentOS4 and one of my plans for security is to impliment the mod_security apache module to filter out unwanted malicious intent. Not having used it before, I wanted to see if anyone here has implimented it and did it block any legit traffic or cause resource traffic/serious slowdowns of their systems? I've asked on the forum about secure

Hi guys, Just a quick question, I've been slowly moving all my user services to mysql backend, I realise it's probably not as good a choice as LDAP, but you tend to stick with what you know. To that end I want to setup both Apache and VSFTP to use mysql db for virtual users. Basically I want to create virtual users that are locked into their own home dir and have apache use mysql to

Hi everyone, I'm looking into setting up a SATA hardware raid, probably 5 to use with CentOS 4. I chose hardware raid over software mostly because I like the fact that the raid is transparent to the OS. Does anyone know of any SATA controllers that are well tested for this sort of usage? From what I can tell from googling, this is more or less where RHEL stands: Red Hat Enterprise Linux

Hi all, Since upgrading to perl 5.8.5-36.el4_5.2 I have had no end of problems, starting with needing compress::zlib which I got from rpmforge, then I had to reinstall scalar::util to get mailscanner working but now I can't install or upgrade any perl modules. Has anyone else had problems or can someone tell me what I've done wrong please? regards tom

Hello, I have been looking at the Ruby/EventMachine. First let me say it look very good. Reactor model with no threads makes for fast reliable server, and I have read about marvelous Twisted framework for Python and am glad to see something similar for Ruby. I am writing network app with Ruby threads now and it very slow, and I try new Ruby 1.9 with native threads that make it much slower.

Hi I'm trying to get a setup working with 2 separate AD forests (both 2003 R2 based). Let's call them PROD.x.ch and DEV.x.ch. There is a one way cross forest trust from DEV to PROD (hope I said this the right way), so that authenticated principals in PROD can access resources from DEV. The setup works in principle, a user logged into a PROD Windows PC can access Shares from a DEV

Hi guys, Just a quick question. Can RHEL4/CentOS built in firewall handle multiple IP's bound to one interface? For example on one of my boxes out there I have 64 IP's bound to an interface used in virtual hosting. I searched long and hard for a easy and useable solution without much success. I ended up rolling my own, but it's a hack. Was wondering if CentOS has any answers for

Hi, I attempted to ugprade glibc & glibc-devel and ended up removing them entirely by accident. *idiot* What are the steps needed to get glibc back onto my system. Absolutely nothing is working at the moment, rpm, yum, etc. I presume I'm going to have to boot from a rescue CD of some kind. If someone could outline how to do this, or point me to some docs I would be most grateful.

Just sharing an experience with you all -- hopefully you take better precautions than I do. :-) I have a few sites built with Rails 0.8.3 that were ugpraded to 1.0. The newer sites are on edge rails. So when I heard 1.1 had come out, I unfroze my new apps, and installed the new gem for Rails 1.1. The sites that was operating on edge rails worked just fine. However, the sites that were working

An intermittent need to connect to a CentOS4 development box from a MS-Win2K workstation using X-Windows has developed here. However, I cannot seem to find a cheap (read free) X-windows client for MS- Windows to accommodate this. This seems very odd to me, displaying no doubt my profound ignorance of the issues involved. The few shareware versions that I have located expect registration

I am proud to announce that I have just released a brand new IPSwitchBoard totally rewritten from scratch. The new version has been built on the experiences gained by the previous versions. Download for FREE: http://ipsoftware.thorben.dk IPSwitchBoard is totally customizable and will give you, among other things: Unattended/attended transfers. Park calls and retrieve/forward them again.

I have been working on solving a major issue with IPSwitchBoard. It was reported that IPS would use all available memory and get the PC to grind to a halt. I could not understand this as I had it running on many different PC's in Denmark. I now found the bug: IPS would crash on any PC that had "." configured as decimal point (in Denmark we use ",") this meant

Hi all, that's my first message here. I'm seeing a big bug at the moment for the first time. I had change nothing to the wine configuration, nor the wine files.
