I am trying to install swatch via yum but it doesn't recognize swatch as being available. I have tried various naming conventions such as swatch-3 etc but still no go. I have Dags repo in yum.conf and I see it listed there on his webpage. In addition, I did a yum search swatch and still nada. Anyone have an idea as to why it will not install? I'm running CentOS 3.5 Thanks, Ed

I have an init script that after running, causes my terminal not to log out cleanly. Here's what i mean: # /etc/init.d/script restart << this runs fine, returns my shell prompt # exit << When I enter this command, my shell window just stays "stuck" and actually won't close down. Anyone know why this happens?

Given my experience in Linux is limited currently, what do you guys use to monitor logs such as 'messages' on your centos servers?

I have need of the functionality of the "swatch" utility. Prior to the actual installation of swatch I used perl2rpm to create RPMs for the PERL modules not provided in CentOS. I got a clean 'make test' from the package so I know that everything is configured properly. The bottom line is that the utility appears to be broken. I can downgrade to version 3.0.8, which

I'm running CentOS 4.4. I'm trying to install swatch (a log watcher) using CPAN. It's getting hung up on trying to install a dependency, Pod::Simple So before I get too wrapped up in this, I have the following questions: 1. Is there an alternative way to install swatch? I didn't get a hit when I tried yum. 2. I'm not wedded to swatch. Is there another log checker

I am looking at options for VPN connections from iPhones and iPod Touches to CentOS systems. We use OpenVPN for connections with Windows, Mac OS X, and other Linux systems, but there don't appear to be any OpenVPN clients for iPhones (presumably because there are no tun/tap interfaces available yet). My experiences getting IPsec running on CentOS systems with OpenVPN have not been pretty.

Over the weekend my workstation (still on CentOS 3) started showing SMART errors, so we shut it down and moved everything onto a new drive. On reboot, the RPM database reports as corrupted and "rpm --rebuilddb" segmentation faults. Is there any reasonable way to recover from this, short of a complete reinstall? The machine is otherwise up though it''s quite likely some files

What am I doing wrong here?

I am attempting to use libvirtd/kvm on CentOS 5.latest to migrate a SCO OpenServer 5.0.6a VM from the old VMware server. I have converted the multiple vmdk disk files to a single file, then used qemu-img convert to create files for libvirtd, both qcow2 and raw formats. After many attempts to get this working I'm up against what appears to be a brick wall. + The VMware VMs are using

Greetings, Well, I en devoured to install a copy of 7 as an effort to upgrade one of our servers. After installing a few ports, I began to notice: [: -le: argument expected messages being emitted during the configure/make process. I've already invested a fair amount of time on this upgrade, and /really/ don't want to wipe the disk(s) and start all over. This issue is not new to me - see

I'm up for a cell phone contract renewal and am considering upgrading my handset. I looked at some devices at my local AT&T store but nothing really jumped out at me. I'm particularly interested in a cell phone that has a reliable ssh client, with ssh-agent and public key authentication abilities. Those of you who administer systems remotely, what mobile ssh client do you recommend?

I have a server that is undergoing some patching soon and would like to make note of any files that have changed after the patching is complete. Can you recommend a tool that uses md5sum snapshots to do a quick before and after test, showing anything that's changed on a particular file system?
