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=

Hi I'm thinking about setting up a local / LAN respository for my CentOS, and probably other (Fedora Core) disto's, but have never done it before, so here's some questions: If I setup a repository, can it hold different distro's / architectures & versions? Say for example, CentOS 4 (i386 & x64), CentOS 5.0 & 5.1 (i386 & x64) - will each one have it's own

Hi all, I have a little trouble with mrepo: yum groups doesn't seem to be setup correctly; if I do "yum grouplist" it only gives me Installed Groups: Yum Utilities Available Groups: FreeNX and NX XFCE-4.4 Horde Did I forget something on the mrepo.conf or similar? tia Lorenzo Quatrini

HVM = fully virtualized. The question is, why are you using fully virtualized domUs?

Hi, What is the preferred OS to use with XEN, as the dom0 host? We primarely us CentOS (currently 5.6) but it seems that the native XEN that comes with CentOS is a bit behind.

Hi all, Does anyone know what the correct steps are to add a XEN bridge, let''s say xenbr0 to Debian Squeeze? I have added the following to /etc/network/interfaces # XEN Bridge auto xenbr0 iface xenbr0 inet manual bridge ports eth0 bridge_stp off bridge_fd 0 And then rebooted the server but brctl show still shows eth0 as bridge: newusaxen:~# brctl

Hi all, Has anyone seen something like this before: I want to use a laptop as a KVM console. Basically when a technician goes to one of our datacentres, or clients he has to look for a free LCD, keyboard & mouse to connect to a server (no network access, reinstall, troubleshoot failed kernel / HDD, etc). And then hopefully there's an open power socker in that cabinet. So I'm

Hi all I've just installed CentOS 5.1 x64, from the 1st CD (minimal installation) and then tried to install Apache, but keep on getting this error: [root at cacti ~]# yum install apache Loading "installonlyn" plugin Repository centosplus is listed more than once in the configuration Setting up Install Process Setting up repositories not using ftp, http[s], or file for repos,

Hi all, Has anyone managed to get CentOS 6 domU (i.e. guest) working on a Debian 6 do0? Both OS''s are 32bit and I''m running XEN 4.0.1 with HVM support. A CentOS 5.6 domU works fine on this very same server though. When I start CentOS 6, I get the following error: newusaxen:~# xm create -c /xen/genocide.cfg Using config file "/xen/genocide.cfg". xenconsole: Could

Hi all If I do a "dig mydomain.co.za" from a Linux server, how do I know which DNS nameserver returns the queries? I seem to have a faulty DNS server, but can't see which one, so I want to find out which nameserver (if there's 4 - ns1.myserver, ns2.myserver, ns3.myserver & ns4.myserver) returns the queries? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers CEO, SoftDux Web:

Hi all, I need to setup a real bare minimum CentOS Virtual Machine, but with normal internet / network access. i.e. I need SSH, Mutt, Links, lynx, ping, tracert, dig, iptables, etc. Does anyone know where (if?)

Hi, Does anyone know of a stable / working "2way authentication" system for SSH, and even web authentication services?

Hi all I've been thinking about using CentOS on a Dell R200 server and turn it into a firewall / network monitor / traffic shaper in our datacentre, instead of using a dedicated firewall device.
