Hi Everyone, I started a social networking site and I am getting ready to go live next week. I have limited fund as I am not funded yet (although hopefully soon). I have an extra Mac Pro (I know, how can I possibly call a Mac Pro dual 2.8 quad core with 16gb RAM extra). So Mac Pro quad Core, 16gb RAM, 4 x 1tb RAID level Seagate drives. I was going to load CentOS 5.4 on it, web, mysql

I have here a box which I dual-boot between CentOS 5.4 and an older version of that "other OS" that I'm using to check out the ELrepo version of kmod-ntfs. After installing as per the directions on the ELrepo site, I can mount an NTFS filesystem, and when I type "mount" with no options the output tells me that the target filesystem is mounted read-write. However, when I

I'll be setting up a vSphere 4 environment hosting CentOS 5.4 on Netapp FAS and was curious how you guys are handling the automation of partition alignment within your linux guests. I'd like to use cobbler for dynamically creating kickstart scripts and wasn't sure if I could align my disk during install some how. Are there kickstart arguments to force the alignment on a 4k boundary?

Is there an easy way to get the "none" option back into OpenSSH? In order to do TCP/IP over amateur radio in the U.S. (and most other countries) we must not use encryption to obscure the meaning of our info, but we are allowed to use authentication to set up the links. This means we need normal authentication but we need the "none" option back in OpenSSH in order to use it

I remember a thread many months ago where someone asked about a disaster recovery template or guide and several people on this list linked some really good content. I can't seem to find that thread now and neglected to make note of the links but I do recall that some of the guides came from a site that had many other "industry best practices" type guides. Any insight here or do you

I'm looking to acquire a few new core switches for our network which would be a major upgrade from the cheap unmanaged things we currently have. Basically, just users, servers, and other simple network devices will be plugged into them but I'd like to start doing some testing with iSCSI for various non-production reasons. I have no allegiance to a particular vendor although I do have a

First issue: I did an upgrade from 4.7 to 5.3 on an HP DL380G3 box. I got yum working again and upgraded 160+ packages. During that process I saw: ------------------------------------------- Installing : kernel-PAE [157/322] WARNING: No module mptscsi found for kernel 2.6.18-128.2.1.el5PAE, continuing anyway Installing : kernel [158/322] WARNING:

Not specific to CentOS but I know you guys would be really helpful anyhow. Basically, I have a file which has been editted in the past very similarly to the hosts file only now I want to use it as a hosts file and need to run some fancy sed to massage the data into shape. Currently, the data in the file is in the form of <ip address> <tab> <short hostname> <space>

I'm getting this on two XF_64 systems by running "yum update" today.

Not a CentOS specific question, although I am running grep on CentOS 4.3 but how would you grep out a series of lines in a file starting at a specific point. For instance, if I have a file named foo and I want to grep out the next 5 lines after the first and only instance of the string "bar" how could I pull that off? Thanks so much.

This is completely off topic but just curious if you guys had any extra insight into what time today Firefox 3 will be released.

We have two virtual machines on ESX 3 running CentOS 4.3 and we'd like to turn them into some sort of highly available nfs file server. Currently, I am familiar with DRBD and RHCS but I was curious what others might recommend in such a situation. I'm not sure how easily we could use RHCS in such a situation because we don't really have the advantage of shared storage in this setup.

I thought I would turn here before giving up. I am trying to install Twiki 4.2 on CentOS 5 with all updates. (I also tried Twiki 4.1.2 as well) I am running a custom rolled Apache 2.2.8 server and custom rolled PHP 5.2.6 (built with oracle support). These work and are rock solid. I've been using the same config with very heavy duty scripts and php applications with no issues. When trying to

Just installed CentOS 5.1 on VMware ESX and am attempting to play with the newly added tick_divider feature. It doesn't seem to be making any difference in the number of timer interrupts though. I set tick_divider=10 which should reduce the number of timer interrupts to 100. I wrote a nasty little scripts that queries /proc/interrupts every 1 second and still see an increase each second in

We are in need of a remote mirror that provides rsync capabilities for vaulted centos releases. Specifically centos 4.3 but we'll need 4.4 when it is vaulted too. Any helpful links to information on this or a reputable mirror would be fantastic. Thanks.

Hello, we are running CentOS 4.3 and the latest cluster suite packages from the csgfs yum repository for this release and need to delete a cluster member. According to the documentation we need to restart all cluster related services on all remaining nodes in the cluster after the node has been removed. This is a four node cluster so removing one node obviously degrades the cluster to three

In centos 4 we used tail in the following way: tail +83 file That would tail the contents of the file starting at line 83. In centos 5 that same command complains about the file +83 not being found. It appears that the + option in tail doesn't work the same way in centos 5. Is there another easy way to grab the contents of a file starting at a certain line number and beyond.

We are in need of some very basic software that will give us the ability to swing an ip address from one host to another during controlled maintenance or host failure. For now the IP address will be the only resource that is shared and there will never be a need for shared storage. Eventually we may want to monitor processes for health (probably just read in pid file) and it would be great if

Is there a generic way that processes written to share files with (say) apache in /tmp can figure out that they are running on an OS with systemd and in that case, where the daemon in question thinks /tmp is? For example, twiki has a backup/restore add-in where the backup part is normally done from cron with a command line script but the resulting archives that go in /tmp are supposed to be seen
