Hello all, I have looked around on the HCL and on other hardware sites. Do any of you have experience with Centos 5.5 64 bit on these motherboards? Regards, Coert Waagmeester

Hello all, At our office a have a server running 3 Xen domains. Mail server, etc. I want to make this setup more redundant. There are a few howtos on the combination of Xen, DRBD, and heartbeat. That is probably the best way. Another option I am looking at is a piece of shared storage, a machine running CentOS with a large software RAID 5 array. What is the best means of sharing the storage?

Hello all fellow CentOS users! I have a working xen setup with 3 paravirt domUs and one Windblows 2003 fully virt domU. There are to virtual networks. As far as I can tell in the paravirt Linux DomUs I have gigabit networking, but not in the fully virt Windows 2003 domU.... Is there a setting for this, or is it not yet supported? I run xen-3.0.3-64.el5_2.3 Kind regards, Coert

Hello all, Got myself the Linux Advanced Routing & Traffic control book http://lartc.org/howto/ All the commands in the guide do not survive reboots. Could someone point me in the right direction, where I can find CentOS/Redhat specific documentation on the whole /etc/sysconfig/network* setup? Kind regards, Coert Waagmeester

Hello all, About a year ago I set up a mail server on CentOS using this howto: http://wanderingbarque.com/howtos/mailserver/mailserver.html I managed to add amavisd-new with clamav and spamassassin. It runs very well, but it runs on CentOS 5.2, and if I try to upgrade, amavisd-new and clamav break. we are now also at the point where a backup mx will need to be implemented. If necessary I am

Hello all, I have been running xen for a while now with two interfaces: dummy0 for host only communication, and eth0 for the outside network. my script looks like this: (/etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge-more) ------------------------------------------------------------------ #! /bin/sh dir=$(dirname "$0") "$dir/network-bridge" "$@" vifnum=0 netdev=dummy0

Hello all, Windows......................... I have installed a Windows Server 2003 fully virt domU with the GPLPV drivers. The network settings reset on every restart of the domU. Weird STOP errors keep popping up.... Was I naive to think you can run a Windows server on Xen? Are any of you guys doing it successfully? Am I better of just installing windows server 2k3 on bare hardware? Just

Hello all, I am running drbd protocol A to a secondary machine to have 'backups' of my xen domUs. Is it necessary to change the xen domains configs to use /dev/drbd* instead of the LVM volume that drbd mirrors, and which the xen domU runs of? regards, Coert

Hello all, I have yesterday after some typos, sent my ext3 RAID5 array to the void... I want to recreate it now, but I read on http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Disk_Optimization that you can optimize the filesystem on top of the RAID. Will this wiki article be exactly the same for XFS? Is it worth the trouble to also create an LVM volume on the RAID array? Regards, Coert

Hello all, Firstly, I have checked on google, and there are indeed howtos on this subject. Have any of you done this or something similar on CentOS? If so, could you send me the configs maybe? How can I find out if the centos version of samba supports extended ACLs? I ran a modinfo xfs, and XFS supports it. I want to set up a samba server that authenticated to AD. I have that up and running,

Hello all, Have installed eclipse 3.5 x86_64 from the eclipse site, with CDT and QT integration. I am just starting to learn C++ but I would like to know how to set up the ability to compile for 32 bit as well? At the moment I am googleing this as well. Regards, Coert

I've got a bit of a problem with Samba. I just can't work out how to change passwords or remove users. I've just got user security.. lines in smb.conf are: security = user passdb backend = tdbsam I've removed the user using pdbedit, I've removed the unix user, smbpasswd says the user doesn't exist yet I can still connect to the shares. I'm

Hi. The short story... Rush job, never done clustered file systems before, vlan didn't support multicast. Thus I ended up with drbd working ok between the two servers but cman / gfs2 not working, resulting in what was meant to be a drbd primary/primary cluster being a primary/secondary cluster until the vlan could be fixed with gfs only mounted on the one server. I got the single server

Hello, I'm trying to investigate and solve some postgres latency spikes that I'm seeing as a result of some behaviour in the syncer. This is with FreeBSD 8.2 (with some local modifications and backports, r231160 in particular). The system has an LSI 9261-8i RAID controller (backed by mfi(4)) and the database and WALs are on separate volumes, a RAID 6 and a RAID 1 respectively. It has

Hi guys! I can?t find an answer in google, so my last hope is this mailing list. Story. I have two servers with same arrays. Servers connected by DRBD. I used ocfs2 as file system, also I used NFS4 to access to the ocfs2 drive. I do not have any idea, but the allocated descriptors in /proc/sys/fs/file-nr increasing every time while drive accessed. So after some time allocated descriptions over

Hello all! I have a samba server as a member of a domain with trust relationships to two other domains. Samba is configured with: winbind use default domain = yes winbind separator = + so the domain samba is member of does not use the seperator, but the other 2 domains do. If I change this to winbind use default domain = no ,will I have to update all the ACLs on the filesystem to include

Hello all, I have a Samba file server running that is member of a windows AD domain. Later I added 2 more domains with a full trust relationship between all 3. (all are Windows AD) Everything works perfectly, wbinfo -u/-g shows all users/groups from all 3 domains, and ACLs work perfectly. I now want to decommission 2 of the domains, and leave only 1 domain. Lets say they are: domain1old
