I was about to install clamav from the dag repo, but added the kbs-CentOS-Extra repo lately. So, there's one as well and I thought I might better get this one since it is rebuilt for CentOS. I'm getting a few confusing dependencies, though. fedora-usermgmt noarch 0.8-1 kbs-CentOS-Extras 7.7 k fedora-usermgmt-setup noarch 0.8-1

Guys, what is the best way of arranging the repos with regards to their priority? Any ideas, especially for all non base ones? /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo - priority = 1, 2 /etc/yum.repos.d/atrpms.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/kbs-extras.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/kbs-misc.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/rpmforge.repo How would we position dags repo?

There seem to be some inconsistencies in the kbs-CentOS repository: [root at tabb1 ~]# yum update Setting up Update Process Setting up Repos kbs-CentOS-Extras 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 kbs-CentOS-Misc 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 update 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 base 100%

I'm in the process of rolling out new setups with dovecot on CentOS 5.2 and I notice that dovecot doesn't handle the brute-force attacks too nice. I reduced the limit a bit to some reasonable looking value: login_max_processes_count = 32 to stop them earlier and the number of processes stops at that figure when an attack happens. However, it stays at this count for hours although the

Hello all I'm new to RHEL/CentOS so I'm wondering what repositories people add/enable to get all the extras they want? Especially multimedia stuff. I tried to enable [contrib] but that didn't seem to be available (yet). I then added rpmforge and atrpms which seem to work. However I've read that atrpms may wreak havoc on my installation; is it best to keep it disabled? What about

In the yum priorities page on the wiki Akemi Yagi suggests http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/Priorities [base], [addons], [updates], [extras] ... priority=1 [centosplus],[contrib] ... priority=2 Third Party Repos ... priority=N (where N is > 10 and based on your preference) If you have rpmforge, kbs, epel all set up at 10 then wouldn't those also potentially overwrite

Hello, I've got a centos5 box that at least has a dependency issue or a corrupt rpm database. I am open to suggestions as to how to proceed. I have added some extra repositories to my yum configuration, centosplus, rpmforge, atrpms, and the kbs repos. I haven't been having issues with installs or upgrades until today when i ran a yum update, and got a missing dependency error for

I have been using centos 6 in a virtualized system for a few months now. Took a while to batten down the hatches with postfix, rbls, and to use fail2ban correctly. The mailserver for my website(s) are located on the http server as well..an 'all in one' server. DNS servers are separated. My two sites, and their emails addresses (1 for each) have been around for 10 and 15 years

Is there a program on CentOS which will sort my passwd/group etc. files by username or uid/gid? On Suse I can do this with a sysconfig switch and Suseconfig, is there something similar on RH-based systems?

Using CentOS 5.1 with Xen 3.2. I'm trying to install a fully virtualized system for the first time and doing this with an old Suse 9.0 (this probably would run paravirtualized, maybe it won't run, anyway, because of hardware problems). I start with virt-manager and after choosing "fully virtualized" it presents me two options for install media: iso image and CD-ROM or DVD,

I have a local mirror of CentOS5 base and updates. Now with 5 having become 5.1 and in case I just want to keep on updating (at the moment) is it enough that I update the mirror of updates or do I also need an update of the base repo?

The new virtual machine manager in Centos 5.1 displays some weird behavior here and I assume it's because the UUID of one running VM is the same as of a VM that is shut down. I used the same config file template for creating all my test VMs, so several have the same UUID. Didn't produce any problems with xm. But the new VM manager in Gnome shows active and inactive VMs and identifies

I took over a custom firewall script from my older Suse machines to my Dom-Us and it works just fine. Doing the same for Dom-0 immediately killed all traffic for the VMs. As there was no need before I had been dropping everything on the FORWARD chain. After ACCEPTing all for FORWARD my VMs are happy again. What's best practice on Dom-0, what do you do? Can I restrict the forwarding, in

I converted a physical maschine running CentOS 4.6 to a Xen VM on a CentOS 5 host. Almost everything was running when I decided to rsync /lib and /usr a while later in order to get updated files and get the one or two non-working programs to work. There are differences because of the xenU kernel I didn't think about. I forgot to exclude rpm database and /lib/modules. Because the synced
