PostgreSQL & SELinux problem
Hi.
I just installed Centos 4. I''m pretty sure that I chose to have it
install postgresql but when the system came up, it wasn''t there. No
worries. I installed it from the net with ''yum''. Unfortunately, when I
started it up and it tried to init the database, I got a bunch of
SELinux errors:

Debian + Samba 3.0 + Mac OS X 10.[2-3] -> insufficient privileges
hi all,
I've read trough the list and see discussions with similar problems.
I've setup a file server and users can connect to it via SMB/CIFS.
Windows users just happy. The problem starts with the Mac users.
All Mac users are using OS X (versions 10.2,10.3).
I'm vetoing several files right now, permission inheriting turned on,
I've forced the create mode and directory mode to

Sendmail vs. Postfix
Hah!!! This list is just too calm and mundane. The only thing we argue
about is the ''announce'' list vs. the ''user'' list. ;) So, it''s
springtime! I''m seeing all the regularly scheduled ''oil'' threads on my
motorcycle lists and thought "oh what the heck, lets get the ''oil''

What would cause dbus-daemon to fork() bomb?
For some reason, my system (64-bit, CentOS 5.8) has started to have a
strange problem: dbus-daemon fork() bombing, typically overnight. The
machine has been fine for months and months. What could cause this?
This is my home desktop (it is also a server on my lan: dhcp, ldap,
dns, web, etc.).

I'm running dovecot on my FreeBSD 6.0 VPS (just upgraded from FBSD

Zsh fork bomb paniced my kernel.
Hi,
My machine just bombed when I did the following stupid command.
:(){:|:};:
Zsh chewed up everything on the machine...
I ran it knowing I'd probably have to reboot.
But, I hardly expected it to panic.
Or, was that normal?
Anyway, the following is some detail...
Please mail me if there is more I'm ment to do.
Thanks in advance :)

I have been googling, and can't find anything that will help me:

Any suggestion?

SuperServer 6024H-82R and Centos 3.3
I know this is a long shot, but does anyone have any familiarity with this
server? It uses the Super X6DH8-G2 motherboard. Currently, we've added an
Adaptec 2120S Ultra320 RAID PCI Controller Card to get RAID 5 capability. The
installation bombs and from what I can tell it looks like we're getting SCSI
resets or the controller is going offline maybe. Any ideas would be greatly
appreciated.

MC
I've tried to install midnight commander on centos3.1 final. No luck in
installing it via yum install. When I download src.rpm from centos2 updates
SRPMS I couldn't rebuild it. RPM --rebuild mc*.src.rpm didn't work (no
rebuild option). What can I do then ?

CentOS Remote Installation ?
Hi.
Is there a way to install centos over my actually debian or suse server like
an autoinstaller script or rsync or nfs?
I have no local access to the server so that the installation must be done
over remote.
If yes can anyone provide an faq or HowTo for a way to update my server to
centos.
Thanks Sven S.

[centos 3.4] e1000 and installation problem
Hello,
I install Centos'es from PXE, with vmlinuz and initrd provided by

So kernel is booting, then it comes to the screen which ask for one nic
to do a dhcp query. I choose eth0, dhcp server reply well and then i get
an ip address, dns'es, etc. And nothing else

Guide to stripping Centos 3
I responded to a post in the Dell poweredge mailing list
earlier today. My answer was off the top of my head, with a
bit of experimentation. The content may be useful in the
Cenyos context as well to admin's looking to strip the size of
an install to the bare bones.
Comment welcomed. Can anyone see any packages which I have
missed?

Newbie Questions - Yum, etc.
Hi All:
My name is Peter J. Mignone and I have a little Linux experience. From what
I have read about CentOS, it appears very interesting so I am trying it out.
I get a header.info error when I tried yum which I have never used.
How do you set up yum? Where do you point it, etc.?
If my understanding is correct about the licensing, I should turn off
anything pertaining to the Red Hat Network.

public-key ?
Hi,
I'm not a crypto expert, so after reading this interview with Bruce Schneier
( http://www.securityfocus.com/columnists/324 ) I'm wondering if OpenSSH has
the same problem he talks about, that is one public-key algorithm.
Doesn't OpenSSH use RSA, DSA, and DH ?
Also, is there any plan to include those new NSA standards based on ECC ?
