Hello everyone, Maybe this doesn't make sense, but after I updated autofs yesterday and rebooted this morning, X windows won't go. It tries with the old configuration---doesn't work. It tries a fresh config and fails. I can't copy and paste, but it says screens found, but no usable configuration. Couldn't start X server on card 0 Couldn't start X server with old

Hello everyone, When I type "sa-update" to get the latest files for Spamassassin, I see this error: ]# sa-update Argument "1.39_01" isn't numeric in subroutine entry at /usr/bin/sa-update line 83. My Google-fu came up with nothing when searching for this error. Am I the only one getting this to happen, or are any of you seeing it as well? Gilbert

Hello everyone, A quick Gnome question that has vexed me. In CentOS 5.10, if I have, say, an X terminal window up on my screen, the next time I log in, it's there when I log in as an unprivileged user. That's because I can save the layout the way I want to; there's a checkbox for it to save the layout upon exiting. I see none for CentOS 6.5. So, my X-terminal isn't there when I

Hello all, Several days ago, I noticed Firefox 3.0.8 was released for i386, but I haven't seen it on any of the mirrors. I know it can take a few days for mirrors to sync, but I think it's been 5 days now. Anyone see this package out there yet? ******************************************************************************* Gilbert Sebenste

Hey all, I am getting a number of incoming emails flagged as spam this morning. Here's why: X-Spam-Level: ***** X-Spam-Status: Yes, score=5.2 required=5.0 tests=FH_DATE_PAST_20XX, SUBJ_ALL_CAPS autolearn=no version=3.2.5 X-Spam-Report: * 3.4 FH_DATE_PAST_20XX The date is grossly in the future.

Hey everyone, Logwatch flagged something in my Apache logs, and it says it was a possible successful probe. Hmmm. Here's what it says: --------------------- httpd Begin ------------------------ A total of 1 sites probed the server 66.249.137.70 A total of 2 possible successful probes were detected (the following URLs contain strings that match one or more of a listing of

Karanbir, No one should ever have to go through that. I am sorry to hear that someone has done that evil deed to you. May they be forgiven, but know the pain that they have caused you and repent of their sins. And if there's something I can do to help, please let me know. ******************************************************************************* Gilbert Sebenste

Hello everyone, I just installed the CentOS 6.8 updates from the CR repository, and then I rebooted the server. I run some software to make weather images on a website, and I have run into a problem. When I do it, the software, as it tries to plot the image, says: Xwindow: unable to connect to display It just stopped working when I did the updates. Has anyone else seen this, or have an idea on

Hello everyone, I have been scouring the Internet for answers, wikipages, non-Centos pages, and I am stumped. I have a HP LaserJet P4014n. When I plugged it in via USB cable, it found it as a P4014, but in any case, it simply wouldn't print, so I deleted it, and tried to start from scratch. When I manually add the printer, it seems all is well, but it won't print a test page. In my

Hello everyone, A network engineer buddy of mine brought up for discussion with me that he'd like to do some throughput testing, but he's new to Linux/RedHat. Is there any software I can recommend to him that any of you find above par for CentOS 6/7? Thanks!

Hello all, I am a noob to streaming video, and I have a file I'd like to stream (a .wmv file...sorry. ;-) ). In any case, how can I do this on my website using Centos 5.2 and Apache 2.2.8, rather than making people download a 20 MB video? Can someone point me to some URL's and some software? Thanks for any help, I greatly appreciate it! Gilbert

Hello all, To the CentOS developers, beta testers, and all who were involved in a small or major way in the release of CentOS 5.4...thank you. Ignoring the peer pressure, even though it was out a little later than you (and many of us) wanted, you got it RIGHT. *That* is what was important. I yum updated from 5.3 to 5.4 with NO issues that I can speak of right now. Thanks to you fine folks,

Hello all, As the subject states, I have a 3Com 3c940 Ethernet card to a 1 gb network switch. The switch detects it, but it only shows that it is giving me 100 mb/sec throughput. That card is rated for 1 GB...is there a way to force it to try to use 1 GB/sec? System-config-network isn't helping me here. Thanks for any help!

Apparently not. On a command line, type: date '+%G' First Spamassassin's bug (now fixed, type "sa-update" as user root), and now this... ******************************************************************************* Gilbert Sebenste ******** (My opinions only!) ******

Hello everyone, I'm streaming audio on CentOS 5.8 with no problem, even on a cheap sound card using DarkIce as the input tool. For the input under CentOS5, I use: device = /dev/dsp # OSS DSP soundcard device for the audio input But under CentOS 6.2, there is no such device. I see /dev/snd, and it has: controlC0 hwC0D2 midiC0D1 pcmC0D0p pcmC0D2p pcmC1D0p seq controlC1 hwC1D0

Hello everyone, I cannot get the Postfix service to start on my pristine copy of CentOS 6.2 (installed straight from a DVD, and 6.2 directly, not 6.0 with upgrades...not thatit should matter). Anyway, I copied over /var/spool/mail to this system by using tar, as well as /etc/services and /etc/passwd, etc. Now, it doesn't want to start. I get permission errors like: postfix/master:
