Greetings, What are some registrars that members of this list have had good experience with? I was stepping through the godaddy checkout process, and being opted-in to a dozen different upsell features just left a bad impression. But I have no clue who else to go with. -Eugene -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Greetings, My question is about using Puppet to manage RHEL6 users'' local group memberships when the users are served from AD using Winbind. I have RHEL6 x86_64 machines joined to a Windows 2003-level domain using Winbind with Kerberos for auth. To add a user-type to a local group, it appears that all groups are evaluated and are subsequently "not found" for the

Hello, What is the best way to protect multiuser systems from brute force attacks? I am setting up a relatively loose DenyHosts policy, but I like the idea of locking an account for a time if too many attempts are made, but to balance this with keeping the user from making a helpdesk call. What are some policies/techniques that have worked for this list with minimal hassle? Thanks! -Eugene

Hi, my users were recently moved from a uw-imap on HPUX to dovecot on EL5. Their sent items and folders went from a ~/Sent mbox file (when using SquirrelMail and Apple Mail both) to ~/mail/Sent for SquirrelMail and ~/mail/Sent Messages for other imap clients. I notice I can cat the files together and the only artifact is I end up with multiple "This message is part of the system do not

Hello, ?With SCL and epel repositories enabled, some dependencies for the package name 'nodejs' get satisfied with libs from SCL which are placed in paths that are not part of my user's environment. Is there a method to make sure that nodeJS from epel dependencies are only satisfied from epel? For example, the http parser dependency gets satisfied by

Hello, I understand the function and reason of limits.conf, and I have some limited experience configuring values for (essentially single-user) Oracle systems. How do I understand correctly what my limits should be for multiuser system system, are there best practice guidance? Are there some typical settings this list has had experience with for multiuser environments? Appreciated, Eugene

Greetings, I've hit this exact 'bug': https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=491311 I need to remove the mappings manually. I assume this is done via 'multipath -F' followed by a 'multipath -v2' ? Has anyone experienced doing this on a production system? We can do it during hours of low activity, but we would prefer to keep the databases on this host online at

Red Hat has

I work for a small company, and we're running CentOS on our servers. We are looking to possibly move our most critical servers to RHEL. We currently use apt to deploy software upgrades to our servers. I have a question about RHEL subscriptions that they don't seem to be able to answer for me. If you have an RHEL subscription, do you have access to manually download the RPMs? We

Hi List, Does anyone here use Dell Equallogic IP SAN? If so, do you have any immediate high points / low points you wouldn't mind discussing on- or off-list ? Thanks.

Wow, this one is weird. I''ve got a file with data I want to import, one item per line. When I run this code, only the first, third, fifth, etc items get saved: require ''../app/models/entitlement'' #### Add entitlements f = File.open("../tmp/entitlements.csv") f.each do |line| id, code, description = line.chomp.split(''|'') entitlement =

Greetings - I have a rhel 3 server that I want to migrate to centos. The FAQ: http://www.centos.org/modules/smartfaq/faq.php?faqid=19 pretty much tells me what I need to do but what is going to happen when I run yum update? Will it replace every RPM on my system with its centos counterpart or will it only upgrade RPMS as new versions are released? This is a production system and I'm

I am trying to migratean existing RHEL 6 machine to Centos 6. I followed the instructions in https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/MigrationGuide I run into problems: when I run yum upgrade then yum tries to access a repository rhel-6-server-extras-rpms and then fails. What can I do that yum no longer tries to access this repository?

For those who have wondered why NFS on EL5 is slower than on EL4 I provide these links for your edification. http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-15355 http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=448130 Problem is kernel threads cannot create or assign an io context as there is no api in the kernel available to do so, so each is given a different context and there is an 8ms latency between
