Hello: I am trying to set up user quotas on my /var partition to enforce limits on user's mailbox sizes. The machine is running CentOS 5. When I do this: /sbin/dumpe2fs /dev/md2 | grep 'Block size' Block size: 4096 That tells me the block size is 4k. But, if I do: repquota /var It is telling me that one of my users is currently using 10264 blocks. But, if I look at

Hello: On a CentOS5 machine I set up for a client, in /etc/aliases, I set root's mail to forward to my email address so I can get notices from cron, etc. Unfortunately, I am now getting a lot of spam which is sent to root at theservername.com How can I tell sendmail to not accept external email to root?

Hello: When I installed CentOS 4.4 (from the ServerCD) on my server, I told it not to install a firewall and I disabled SELinux. The server is a SuperMicro 5015P-TR. I set up my own /etc/init.d/firewall with these rules: #!/bin/sh # Firewall script # # Source function library . /etc/init.d/functions RETVAL=0 # Some definitions (Will need to change ETH0_IP to match your configuration)

Hello: I followed the instructions here: http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/5.2/Installation_Guide/ch02s04s01.html to put isolinux on a usb drive. When I boot from the usb drive, the installer comes up and I can do a network install. I have to say that is very impressive! But, since I have a 4GB usb drive, I am thinking I can load the rest of the installation onto the usb drive so I do not have

Here's a thought: what about doing an lsof? If a file is still being written by ftpd it should be open for writing.

Ok this is kind of a goofy question but I want to make sure I get it right. Suppose we have a 25 mb video, that is 117 seconds long. If we wish for this streaming video to play smoothly with no compression, buffering or skipping, the following bandwidth requirements must be met: 25 megabytes = 204800 kilobits. 204800 kb / 117 seconds ~ 1750kb/s Does that look right to you?

I am playing with a new machine I just got in and it is dying on boot... I'm wondering if it is to much machine for Centos to run..

ATI Graphics built onto the board. The error I'm seeing is on

Hello: I have a server set up a CentOS 5 server for a client to push files onto using FTP. I have a cron job to process the files and move them to another directory. Sometimes, the cron job executes while the client is still uploading a file (Some of them can be large) and I get a partial file. Is there a way to tell when a file has finished uploading? I am using the vsftpd daemon installed

I just tried to change the memory for my F11 xen guest from 512 to 1024. After executing: xm mem-set workstation 1024 xm list shows the memory still being 512. Anyone else see this behavior before?

Hello: I have a machine running CentOS 5.2 I added two IP addresses to eth0 by copying /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:0 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:1 and changing the relevant IP info.

Hello: I tried this command to tar up a set of data files updated since yesterday (The data directory contains multiple files with varying dates): /bin/tar -z -c -N 2009-03-25 -f /tmp/test.tgz data When I look at the content of the test.tgz file, it looks like it copied the content of the entire directory, not just the newer files.

List, I am experimenting with a Dual processor Supermicro and plan to use CentOS 5 when it is released. In the meantime I have installed Centos 4.4. Sorry for asking such a basic question but what is the difference between CentOS (2.6.9-42.0.8.ELsmp) and CentOS (2.6.9-42.0.8.EL) Both kernels have been installed, but I have not been able to find which one is best to use for what purposes.
