similar to: SOLVED: CentOS 5.3 and NTFS

Aaaaaa, I'm pulling out my hair over here! I have an external USB drive which I had at work, connected just fine to my CentOS 5.3 box. I recall there was some jiggery-pokery involved, but do not recall just what. So now I'm on my wife's freshly installed CentOS 5.3 laptop trying to get it going, and I keep getting errors about FATAL: Module fuse not found. I saw this message from

Hey folks, It looks to me like the httpd on CentOS is stuck at 2.2.2 - what's up with that? Even after a yum upgrade. I need 2.2.10 or greater, and would prefer to get it via yum or at very last an RPM if at all possible. But I cannot even find an RPM out there. For some reason both EPEL and Dag Wieers do not even seem to have an httpd RPM for RHEL5 Any idea where to look? Why are we

Hey folks, I'm trying to use a 5.3 box to run some JNLP apps, but all I get is a view of XML. I try doing some googling and don't come up with much other than this one thread that says I may need both 32 and 64 bit Java to run JNLP. But it is not clear to me how to do that. thanks, -Alan -- ?Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV? ? ? ? ?? - Michael Pollan,

Hey folks, I created a DomU, installed Linux, and then realized I''d only given it 1 NIC so brought it down to edit the cfg file to give it another NIC. Originally I just had : vif = [''''] And so I guess the defaults worked for the 1 NIC. So I changed it to : vif =

Hi folks, I've got a bit of a different scenario than I imagine most, and have spent the last 60 or 90 minutes searching Amanda list archives and googling, but did not come up with anything much. Then I went browsing around the Amanda website and found "vaulting" and was wondering whether this would suit my needs. I'm basically searching around for a backup solution and

Hey folks, I posted this as part of another old thread but am starting a new thread for it because I got no response. I've also since found the nfdump mailing list but it seems to be dead. I was not able to find either of these guys in a CentOS repository anywhere, so I'm building them manually. Below was on CentOS 5.2. ---snip--- I'm going to kick this old thread because I'm

Hey folks, Is there a Linux tool that will monitor a disk and tell me which directories are growing over time? I could cobble something together myself of course, but if there is already a good off-the-shelf solution, why bother? Even if it only checks once per day that would be fine. Graphs would be pretty too :-) cheers, -Alan -- ?Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on

Hey folks, I've got a CentOS / RHEL (5.x) environment and am in the process of migrating the 5.3 file server over to an Oracle/Sun 7120 appliance. I want to keep my main 5.3 server as our NIS server but am moving NFS and Samba functions over to the appliance. NFS was a no brainer as one can imagine. Samba seems a bit trickier because of the authentication requirements in the ZFS server.

Hey folks, I am sure there must be an easy way to do this. I am currently running 5.3 and "yum info db4" tells me that they have version 4.3.29. Is that telling me that this is the version in 5.3? Or that this is the latest version in the 5.x stream? If the former, then how do I find out what release of the db4 software (sleepcat berkeley db) is in 5.7? I don't want to

I don't know the price - I've only been here a few weeks. I'll have to check when I'm back at work for details on it - don't have my VPN login yet.

Hey folks, Once upon a time I saw some sed magic to take the output of "rpm -qa" and strip away all the version info to give just the RPM base names. And of course I forgot to note it :-/ And have not been able to replicate it myself. e.g. from this : avahi-0.6.16-1.el5 avahi-glib-0.6.16-1.el5 produce this : avahi avahi-glib thanks, -Alan -- ?Don't eat anything you've

Hey again folks, How can I save answers to questions in %pre, for use in %post? I'm assuming (though have not yet tried) that variables won't live that long. Could I save them off to /tmp in a file, and retrieve them? e.g. %pre echo "VARNAME=$VARNAME" >> /tmp/varfile %post grep ^VARNAME= /tmp/varile Or some such ... -- ?Don't eat anything you've ever seen

Hey folks, I looked at the man page and don't see any way to do this - maybe it is a function of the compression program used I dunno. Is there any way to get gtar to report on the compression it achieved? I can't just check file sizes because I'm writing data to tape. The basic problem is that I know how much data is there to begin with but I don't know how much room it took

Hey guys and gals, Anyone know of a half decent tool like DNSstuff.com only free? I need to run some diag on a few domains but it is basically a 1 shot deal and hard to justify buying. thanks, -Alan -- ?Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV? ? ? ? ?? - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food"

Hey folks, Does anyone know of a rack configurator that runs on CentOS? It does not have to even be very fancy - immediately I'm just looking for an easy way to keep track of what is in my racks, and being able to have a visual of it. Maybe juggle stuff around. Bonus if it does power calculations based on model numbers and so on - or data I punch in for each model. But really right

Hey folks, I'm running RHEL 5.3 on 6 boxes - and on every one of them sensors-detect finds nothing. 5 of them are Sun fire 2250 machines, and 1 is Sunfire 4170. Googling and searching this list does not seem to find anything. When I log into the Sun hardware management interface (web interface) I see that it of course is correctly detecting various temperatures of things. But for some

Hey folks, I turned on process accounting and had a peek at the man page for dump-acct but I am still left wondering how best to make use of this info. We want to be able to produce some monthly stats on which labs are using how much of our clusters. I know our clustering software has the ability to do this but unfortuantely not everyone uses the cluster commands as much as I keep reminding

Hey folks, What is the best way to manage users across multiple CentOS boxes? Ideally what I'd like to be able to do is have central control over who has access to which box from a minute-to-minute basis. e.g. User X needs access to Box A for 30 minutes - clickity, clickity and they have access for that long after which their access is automatically turned off. thanks, -Alan --

Hey folks, This is sort of a follow up to my email yesterday about memory leaks. I'd found some really good reading material in my hour or so of googling prior to sending that email. Wondering if anyone can recommend good reading on the topic - including raw facts like this jackpot I seem to have hit upon ( http://www.kernel.org/doc/gorman/html/understand/ ), as well as articles on
