It turns out that the release of Centos-3.3 was so popular, that it threw us way over the threshold of our ISP's, and now we are stuck with a _very_ large bill (as in an estimated 6TB of transfers). While in one hand I am ecstatic that we are so successful, but on the other hand, that is coming out of the developers pockets. The developers should be the last ones footing these bills (and this

Greetings. I have just successfully updated a RH-9 file server to CentOS-3.1. I'm VERY impressed. I have a client who has 4 Redhat servers (1 x 7.3 and 3 x 9.0) that I would like to migrate to CentOS-3.1. Question: My client is willing to send a donation for these boxes but they just want to send you (caosity.org) a check that will cover the next couple of years. Who do we make the

Hey, I thought I had been paying attention, but I do not know what is going on. On the mirrors, under centos-3, we now have directories named 3.1, 3.2 & 3.3. The CentOS-3 I have been using for some months came from 3.1. The 3.2 directory is dated September 11th and seems to be empty. The 3.3 directory is dated September 16th and has stuff in it, such as rpm's, but no header files

I am running CentOS 3.1 and everything is working beautifully except my HP12000e tape library that requires multi-LUN support. Every time I re-compile the 2.4.21 kernel with the multi-LUN SCSI option, I get the multi-LUN to work but something else breaks. Is there a pre-compiled kernel somewhere that is similar to the stock CentOS kernel except that it includes the multi-LUN feature? thanks!

Hi, can someone tell how many are behind maintaining the site and converting security and regular RHEL fixes for Centos-3? I see the last round of security updates for RHEL were turned out in a day which is impressive. Trying to get an idea if Centos has alot of community support and being maintained by more than one person. I am not confident enough yet in building my own updates. I am another

Hi, Hi, I have been googling, and can't find anything that will help me: mt -f /dev/st0 status /dev/st0: No such device or address Any suggestion? I am using CentOS 3 [RHEL ES3 without the licenses] The tape drive is recognized at boot [from dmesg] scsi0 : Adaptec AIC7XXX EISA/VLB/PCI SCSI HBA DRIVER, Rev 6.2.36 <Adaptec 29160 Ultra160 SCSI adapter> aic7892:

Sorry to be beating a dead horse to death here... but... in the archives, mostly the FAQ is mentioned, but the FAQ seems to be 'coming soon'. :) I just did a clean install of 3.3. I am operating from the command line. I first mistakenly ran.. been there done that on WhiteBox as well. :( rpm --import /usr/share/rhn/RPM-GPG-KEY Got what I understand now is the expected errors. I then

Hello all, I'm not able to install CentOS in a motherboard with a onboard 3Com gigabit nic (3c904/Syskonnect). Although there's a device driver for the Syskonnect (sk98lin) in the linux kernel, the installation program is asking for this interface module. I tried to create a device disk, but without success. Maybe I'm missing some information about the modules detection by the

Hello several months ago I install WhiteBox Linux on several severs, I was happy, not woriing about upgrading every 1,5 year as when I use RH 4.0, 6.0, 7.3, 9.0 .... And then WhiteBox went black, WBEL updates release slowed down and maintainer wont help form anybody. Just telling "If you want quick updates, build it yourself.". I prefer wasting time for customizations and/or

I have just published a article (http://masnetworks.biz/node/20) about exhibiting at LinuxWorld Expo and the lessons learned. I heard some talk about some interest in doing the San Fran show.

Hi guys been browsing some Forums and came up with the following topics: -News & Forum ---News & Announcements ---Updates ---Forums Feedback ---(please suggest further topics) Documentation & How-To's (the posts in this area will be done by moderators. only certified how-to's and tutorials) ---Known Mirrors ---Instalation ---Configuration ---Multimedia ---Desktop Environments

sorry for the massive cross-post, but I wanted to make sure that I get everyone that needs to know this. Mirror.caosity.org is having problems keeping up with all of the mirrors. Rsync is a memory hog when dealing with large repositories, and mirror just can't handle it. I am migrating mirror.caosity.org to a new host which should be able to handle the load better. Also, I will be limiting

The cAos Foundation and hosted projects have been granted a booth in the Dot Org Pavilion of Linux World Expo in SF this August. If you are a developer or contributor of the project and would like to help staff the both, please send me a private email so we can coordinate. I don't have the actual numbers of Exhibitor badges that we can get yet, but I would assume it is not many. This means

This is a list of issues for discussion for CentOS-4. Most of it is based on my experience from building/maintaining CentOS-2 and observing CentOS-3. I have not seen the CentOS-4 beta yet so I don't know if any of this is already done. If these have been discussed on IRC then perhaps someone could produce a shot summary of the outcomes....? * Just call it CentOS-4 not 4.1 etc. Too

Hey, Greg suggested that I take a straw poll. Should cAos take steps to prevent getting stuck with a big ISP bill in the future? For example, should cAos: a) for new installs, have the yum.conf point to public mirrors, rather than to mirror.caosity.org? b) make sure that "yum update" does not substitute a new yum.conf file that points only to mirror.caosity.org? c) allow public

This seems like another basic question because I always assumed that if I threw something in my /etc/fstab then it will be automatically mounted at boot time (unless I put in the 'noauto' option). But my NFS partition isn't getting mounted, here's the excerpt from my /etc/fstab file, split on the whitespace so it's easier to read: nfs_server:/exports/var/www /var/www nfs

Hi, Anyone out there has any luck on getting mythv or freevo to work on centos 3. I am planning to setup mine pretty soon. Thanks,

I have selected 4 software packages for us to evaluate in order to decide on the best possible engine for the much-requested cAos Community Wiki. All 4 samples are now up and running for you to try out, play around with, and evalute.

Hello, There was no problem installing "APT" package in CentOS 4.0 Beta, but so far I could not install APT or Synaptic by "# yum install apt" or by "# yum install synaptic" in a usual manner. Is there any solution for this? It seems to me, something is wrong only for these two packages. Regards.
