Any chance we can set up a low-volume "centos-announce" list so that we all don't have to read all of these non-Centos-specific E-mail threads about people figuring out how to admin a Linux box when all we need to know is when major releases/milestones/news items are available? Regards, -Tom

Has anyone done an upgrade from RHEL3 to RHEL4? Is this likely to break a lot of things? How long will Centos be supporting version 3? I just installed Centos 3.4 two weeks ago! The only problem I'm having with Centos is that the perl is a bit old. I have errors with spamassassin. So far bugzilla for spamassasin is blaming it on the version of perl included in RHEL3 and bugs in the

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.

Greetings: I'd like to bring up a CentOS-3.3 system to use for multi-media purposes. One of the packages I'm installing is dvdrip and all it's dependant packages (libdv, libdvdcss, libdvdread, avifile, & transcode). I'm hunting down the packages on freshrpms.net and I notice that there are packages available for FC1, FC2 & FC3. Question: Which FC version should I use

Hi all, after an uprade to new kernel 2.4.21-15.0.4.EL on my server appears a lot of these messages: EXT3-fs error (device sd(8,17)): ext3_free_blocks: bit already cleared for block 19268224 EXT3-fs error (device sd(8,17)): ext3_free_blocks: bit already cleared for block 19268225 EXT3-fs error (device sd(8,17)): ext3_free_blocks: bit already cleared for block 19268226 I try to rebuild array but

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Greetings folks, I'm currently redoing my home server as one of the hard drives in my RAID-1 array went down and I'm going to replace the lot of it with a 3Ware Escalade 9500S RAID capable card and four Seagate 200GB SATA drives. These drives are supposedly the coolest and quietest SATA drives available (better than the Maxtors I had anyway)

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

Has anyone else noticed that their normal system beep (from XBell() and the like) no longer works after upgrading to CentOS 4?

Is there just one file that stores the Hostname globally? Or if I needed to change the Hostname would I need to update several different files?

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. The problem is some web sites do not work right, as there is no Shockwave Flash player and Java support seems to be a problem. For some web sites, I have to used Windows. I prefer not to download and install something that YUM could not

I am trying to use rsync 2.4.6 to try creating a backup using another locally connected hard disk. Thing copy, but sometimes the group is eith numeric (valid). Often the owner is not even shown.

So, my questions here: I started with creating a vhba, and that went fine, I could see it on the storage side logging in to the target with its wwn. My next step would be to make it persistent, and

To squelch the questions (related to the changing content on www.centos.org), I decided this needs to be published. The CentOS Team has been contacted by representatives of Red Hat's hired legal team regarding the use of Red Hat Trademarks on www.centos.org. (Full Email follows.) While the CentOS team feels we are using Red Hat's marks in a fair and legal manner, we have no choice

Well, the first day was interesting. We a variety of questions from why do we do this, what's going on with RH, how come this is the first I've heard of you. And hundreds more. The good thing is that we've recieve a very positive response from everyone that visited our booth. Such a positive response that all our CentOS CD's are gone, and most of the cAos CD's are gone, and
