Hi there. Although RHEL 3 is available for several different architectures, CentOS appears to only be available for the i386 architecture. Are alternative architecture rebuilds outside the scope of the CentOS project, or is there some other specific reason for that? If one wanted to rebuild CentOS for, let's say the AMD64 architecture, would that be a difficult process, or is it just

(reposting 'cause I sent the last one from a non-subscribed address) Hi there. I tried "yum update"ing my x86_64 CentOS-3 box today, but the packages won't install and yum claims I don't have an appropriate signing key. I've been happily doing updates all along (last time was Oct. 12) with no trouble. The key ID used to sign the x86_64 packages is 219180cddb42a60e

Hi there. I''m trying to implement NAT on a 2.2 kernel using iproute2 according to Appendix C of the IP Command Reference that comes with iproute2. We''re also moving to a multiple uplink configuration which complicates things a bit. The kernel is 2.2.27-rc2, built with the various advanced routing options (except for large routing tables) turned on. It seems to be working

John, I did not hear back from you right away. Maybe doing all the combinations is too big a job for one person. It might work if we split them up. I could do these two: RedHat 9 -> reinstall CentOS-3.1 RedHat 9 -> live update to CentOS-3.1 I am volunteering for these because I already have RedHat 9 and CentOS-3.1 CD's. The only rub is on Saturday I go on vacation, and at

I have one last RH 7.3 system that I want to convert to CentOS 4, but I can''t find the ncpfs utilities that I used to use to mount Netware shares. Has support been removed from the 3.x and 4? Regards, Paul Berger

2 questions- projected date on 64 bit support? and... can you run a 32-bit app on a 64-bit OS ? I just a read a great article on the Opteron vs. Xeon argument at: http://www.samag.com/documents/sam0411b/ Thanks, Dave

Hello. I am looking for the famous XF86Setup command used on RedHat 7.1 (for XFree86) but I didn't find it on CentOS 3.1. Did it change into something else ? Else how can I configure my monitor, mouse, video card settings ? Same questions for starting the hardware material configurator. How can I force it to run ? I know that it runs automatically at boot when we change a card or device, but

After testing runlevel 5 i noticed that I cant switch to text consoles. So I went back to runlevel 3, but now normal users cant use graphic environment.

Two things have been weighing on my mind regarding security issues. The first is that when I downloaded the CentOS 4.1 ISO images, I could not get the sums to match even using different downloads from different mirrors. I decided that that I was doing something wrong and decided to trust the images. So far no regrets. But I am concerned that I get it right the next time. I thought I had read

Hey, I am using CentOS-3 as a desktop distribution. With the exception of fewer red hats and some different logos, it looks exactly like RedHat 9 to me.

I prefer not to download and install something that YUM could not
