similar to: Network FS w/o user setup

HTTPD on some of my CentOS5 systems is configured to run as user "nobody". Also, it needs access to some exported file systems. CentOS5 uses NFS3 so I changed the ownership of the files on the storage server to "nobody" to give httpd full permissions. Now I want to rebuild these systems with CentOS6 and httpd running as user "apache". The problem is how to give

I am installing CentOS5 on a dell Lattitude D610. dmesg: recognizes the the wireless Intel 2915: ipw2200: Detected Intel Pro/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection I have googled for ipw2915 and centos5 OR rhel5, can't find instructions for installing the firmware.

Is anyone out there using CentOS5 integrated correctly with a Windows 2008 domain so that active directory authentication can be used for samba shares? I have tried the newer RPM's from SERNET up to 3.5 and 3.6 without any luck. The usual behavior is wbinfo returns the active directory users and groups but 'getent passwd' only returns local users. I also tried compiling samba from

I've been handed a Supermicro system that is using the Intel? H6300ESB Serial ATA Controller (Supermicro P4SCI motherboard). When I install CentOS5, everything seems to work OK, but it has absolutely horrid disk performance. Upon further inspection, it seems that the SATA disks are being treated as legacy IDE devices using PIO. Gah.... Has anyone else had this problem? I recall having

I am fairly sure that I had gotten this to work before, and I know that the Centos4-live disk worked OK, but now (maybe since I upgraded BIOS) I get this sequence after booting the live cd: Creating /var in RAM ... Done Found Centos-live.sqfs but couldn't mount it: Linking /usr to /centos-live/usr /linuxrc: 1208: [: not found Freeing unused kernel memory: 296K freed Write protecting the

does anyone else have major probs with Firefox as installed on CentOS5? ever since the RPM for FF3 came out it has been crashing daily. Usually when I use Save As... or Browse... or anything else that brings up the Gnome file picker. After the crash I re-start then the file picker works for a while. Sometimes it just takes scrolling or click+drag an image or some other random action. BANG

I just bought a new cheap compaq presario sr5010nx and so far have been unable to get my dsl up and running on Centos5. pppoeconf on Ubuntu works just fine -- same machine -- same harddrive. I've run adsl-setup and system-config-network? (separately) numerous times without success. So far I suspect a missing driver but suppose it could also be a detection issue. Suggestions or workarounds

Dear all, I have 2 domains: JUPITER.COM (Samba 3.0.23c - Centos5) and WIN.COM (Windows 2000 Adv Srv). I join a windows XP SP1 (MOON), first to Windows domain and then to Samba's. The problem is when I join the XP to Samba's and then try to logon to WIN.COM, the XP is instead logon to Samba, thus the username is not found. The DNS is not a problem, I set the DNS of the XP to

Hello, I'm trying to do a kickstart install of centos5. I'm pulling it off a network server and i'm getting an error, in the parsing of the file.

Dear CentOS, I have recently upgraded several servers from CentOS4 to CentOS5 and I am noticing a strange change to the stat() call. I have written a very small program to test and show the behavior. I am calling stat() against a file which is exported from my NAS and mounted with 32k read/write sizes. [dougalb at centos4 tmp]$ cat my_stat.c #include <unistd.h> #include <stdio.h>

Hi all, I have problem reaching 1Gbps network speed with dom0 / domU (paravirtualized) on my centos5 installations. The fastest speed I measured in domU was about 800/600 receive/transmit Mbps, dom0 being a bit slower. I'm using bridging (eeither with default xen/centos network-bridge script or with my own scripts assigning vlans to bridges). Is anyone experiencing same network slowdown? Or

Dear All, Thank you very much to every one on the list for the sincere suggestion and recommendations I have received amazing response from all; I will try to recap a) Use CentOS for server infrastructure and fedora 8 on the workstations b) Use K12ltsp-terminal server and all the client machines as thin clients c) Use CentOS as Server and Ubuntu as client OS d) Use

Hi folks, I've been asked advice in an area that I'm not well versed and am hoping for some help. Having read a recent thread where booting to anaconda's kickstart wiped a partition table unexpectedly (to the user...it did what it was configured to do), I'm following the 'measure twice, cut once' rule and asking if this is possible and if so, what is best practice: I

What about the update announcements for Centos5? There was nothing posted to centos-announce yet for the updates that have been released so far for Centos5. Also, the centos-announce mailing list options page does not know about Centos5 yet. Best regards, Bernd.

Hi all Does anyone know what causes this error? I have setup a local CentOS repository, with mrepo, and can succesfully use it for updates & installation of just about anything. Yet, this error comes up. Here's my /etc/yum.conf: # PUT YOUR REPOS HERE OR IN separate files named file.repo # in /etc/yum.repos.d [base-local] name=CentOS-$releasever - Base #mirrorlist=
