We're trying to migrate RHEL3 and CentOS4 based samba servers over to CentOS5, but it's a bleeding disaster. We cannot get it to work reliably with any version of CentOS5, i386 or x86_64, the included 3.0.x version of samba or 3.4.x/3.5.x compiled from source. The symptoms are: read access is extremely slow, write access seems to work in principle (e.g. creating a zeros-sized file on

I'm going to retire an old RHEL3 server and move the services to CentOS5. In particular, the web server is giving me a headache. On the old box, there's a hacked-up httpd/mod_jk/tomcat setup, and CentOS is perfect for the new box because the required components are included and the whole setup "just works" straight from installation. There seems to be surprisingly little

We're experiencing problems with some legacy software when it comes to NFS access. Even though files are visible in a terminal and can be accessed with standard shell tools and vi, this software typically complains that the files are empty or not syntactically correct. The NFS filesystems in question are 8TB+ XFS filesystems mounted with

I just came across a user who tried to view a Word document on a CentOS5 machine, and it seems that desktop, firefox etc. are trying to view it with Scribus instead of OpenOffice. This needs to change. Is there a system-wide setting for it? On the older, RHEL3 systems we used to have mozplugger, but it's not available in the standard CentOS repositories or rpmforge. What are we

Hi all, I need to setup a repo server to allocate updates for RHEL3, RHEL4, RHEL5 and CentOS5. Apart of mrrepo tool, I see that I can use reposync from yum-utils package and yum-rhn-plugin package to setup a mirror update server. But I can't to find yum-rhn-plugin under centos5 repo. Where is it?? Or I need to use package released from upstream vendor?? Thanks -- CL Martinez

I just installed CentOS5 on my server and I have to get everything working on it. I chose to clean load it upgrading from RHEL3 to CentOS5. I'm having trouble understanding the way bind works now and was wondering if anyone has a bit of time to help me with it. I am starting from scratch and I only have my primary domain and one additional domain I host. Thanks. -- -=/>Thom

I need to experiment with ldap for a site I manage, and wondered if vmware would be a good way to go for some testing. My current server is RHEL3, which is getting dated, and I think that I should refresh this server entirely in the move to ldap. We need to have an ldap server for publishing email addresses for a VPN for a nursing home that the upstream can harvest and we can browse to send

I have an old RHEL3 box that I am upgrading to CentOS5. I picked up a new Dell Poweredge R200 to use for that. Is there an easy way to copy all the user accounts and existing mail from the old server to the new one? Thanks. -- -=/>Thom

Reading the "waiting IOs" thread made me remember I have a similar problem that has been here for months, and I have no sulution yet. A single CentOS 5.2 x86_64 machine here is overloading our NetApp filer with excessive NFS getattr, lookup and access operations. The weird thing is that the number of these operations increases over time. I have an mrtg graph (which I didn't

Hi R users and experts, I am interested in learning more about the use of 3D plots. Specifically, I want to add points and lines to a surface plot. And get the axes and labels plotted also. Here is what I have tried with an example data set : library(rgl) vol2 <- 2*volcano # Exaggerate the relief library(reshape) mvol2 <- melt(vol2) str(mvol2) # First, persp and persp3d plots do not succeed

Team, **Please respond to me and my coworker listed in the Cc, since neither one of us are on this alias** QUICK PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Cu created a dataset which contains all the zvols for a particular zone. The zone is then given access to all the zvols in the dataset using a match statement in the zoneconfig (see long problem description for details). After the initial boot of the zone

Hi, I've got troubles after few minutes of glusterfs operations. I setup a 4-node replica 4 storage, with 2 bricks on every server: # gluster volume create vms replica 4 transport tcp 192.168.7.1:/srv/vol1 192.168.7.2:/srv/vol1 192.168.7.3:/srv/vol1 192.168.7.4:/srv/vol1 192.168.7.1:/srv/vol2 192.168.7.2:/srv/vol2 192.168.7.3:/srv/vol2 192.168.7.4:/srv/vol2 I started copying files with

Hi, I have a lab with 10 machines acting as storage servers for some compute machines, using glusterfs to distribute the data as two volumes. Created using: gluster volume create vol1 192.168.10.{221..230}:/data/vol1 gluster volume create vol2 replica 2 192.168.10.{221..230}:/data/vol2 and mounted on the client and server machines using: mount -t glusterfs 192.168.10.221:/vol1 /mnt/vol1 mount

I'm trying to build a bugfixed anaconda package for 5.3 x84_64, but there are some fairly basic failures, like pkg-config .pc files not being found. When I modify the spec file accordingly, linking fails because installed libraries are not found. $ rpmbuild -ba anaconda.spec Executing(%prep): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.25019 + umask 022 + cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD + LANG=C + export LANG +

Hi, this reminds me of my troubles of setting up samba BDC at remote company branch. Connection was done by IPSEC tunnel between 2 mikrotik routers. Thing was, ipsec supports only unicast, but not multicast,nor broadcast. Solved it by adding L2TP tunnel that support the above mentioned mechanisms. So ended up with the l2tp (which has very weak encryption and is very old and vulnerable)

Hi all, Somebody have test it yum 2.4.x (http://linux.duke.edu/projects/yum/download/2.4/yum-2.4.3-1.src.rpm) under centos3?? I have installed an mrepo RHEL5 server to serve updates for rhel3, rhel4, rhel5, centos3, centos4 and centos5 (when becomes GA) and RHEL5 doesn't provides yum-arch ...

Dear Samba people, I'm pretty stumped troubleshooting this odd behavior by Microsoft Office 2003/2007 where if I allow the machine to upgrade from Internet Explorer 6 to 7, Office breaks. Users usually get either "Word could not create the work file. Check the temp environment variable" or simply not able to save. The same machine with IE7 works fine for local users, or when

Hi all, I've been thinking about creating a local repo for our to-be CentOS-park (we're currently in the process of migrating from RHEL3 to CentOS5). As we need to control all updates being applied (think WUS, Windows Update Server) because of special software being run on servers and clients, we must check first that our molecular modeling software doesn't bite the grass should eg
