Is there a way to have rsync not treat files that have gone missing (e.g. Maildir messages that have been removed) as errors while indicating I/O errors and such?

I am attempting to use libvirtd/kvm on CentOS 5.latest to migrate a SCO OpenServer 5.0.6a VM from the old VMware server. I have converted the multiple vmdk disk files to a single file, then used qemu-img convert to create files for libvirtd, both qcow2 and raw formats. After many attempts to get this working I'm up against what appears to be a brick wall. + The VMware VMs are using

I am attempting to create a simple line chart graphing three columns from a soffice-calc spreadsheet. I expect it to take the leftmost column as the X-Axis, plotting the others on the Y-Axis, but it always creates an X-Axis of the row number in the columns, and the first column amongst the data. I have tried this on OpenOffice.org 3.2.0, NeoOffice(R) 3.0.2 Patch 2, iWork Pages, and Excel 12.2.4

I built a new server about 10 days ago running CentOS 5.latest, and it's been presenting a message shortly after booting: irq 58: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option) Call Trace: <IRQ> [<ffffffff800bb712>] __report_bad_irq+0x30/0x7d [<ffffffff800bb945>] note_interrupt+0x1e6/0x227 [<ffffffff800bae41>] __do_IRQ+0xbd/0x103

Can somebody point me to a HowTO or other documentation describing the tools available under the CentOS 5 KVM package to create and manage a Windows 7 Pro VM?

Not as good as built-in support but at least people with a newer device have a way to put VLC on their iPhones, etc. without jailbreaking.

How does one allow non-root users to use X11 console logins, CentOS 5 with gnome? I've looked through the startup scripts, but haven't been able to figure out where this goes. Thanks.

Looking at the SRPM kvm-83-249.el5.centos.5, and the SRPM for qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.209.el6.src.rpm on CentOS 6.2, I see many patches to remove SCSI support. The 5.2 kvm.spec file disables scsi in the configure run. Why has this been disabled? Many old OS's don't grok SATA, but have had SCSI support for years.

I am looking for documentation on handling snapshots. The main tasks are: 1. Create a snapshot 2. Roll back a snapshot 3. Merge the snapshot into the base to start the cycle over. Currently I've done steps 1 and 2 into a single qcow2 image. I'm running a relatively old version of libvirtd on CentOS 5, libvirt-0.8.2-29.el5_9.1. Thanks. Bill -- INTERNET: bill at

Looking at the documentation of the /etc/group file including some google searches, it appears to me that, contrary to the man pages for group, Linux systems generally do not put membership user names for the user's primary group in the record for it in the /etc/group file, only for secondary groups. FreeBSD seems to do the same thing while SCO OpenServer has full entries for the primary

I am seeing ``APIC error on CPU3: 60(60)'' warnings from dmesg periodically on a CentOS 5.4 box, kernel 2.6.18-164.11.1.el5. The CPU is an Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU 330 @ 1.60GHz.

Any comments on CentOS 5 on Intel Atom CPUs? I need to build a couple of inexpensive systems that will be used primarily as gateway/firewall systems with OpenVPN, and need recommendations in reliable hardware platforms. These will need two NICs. Bill -- INTERNET: bill at celestial.com Bill Campbell; Celestial Software LLC URL: http://www.celestial.com/ PO Box 820; 6641 E. Mercer Way Voice:

I am trying to set up LDAP authentication for CentOS workstations, but can't get it to authenticate properly. Authentication fails saying the account has expired when I know for certain that it has not (e.g. ldapsearch authenticated with the appropriate uid and password returns shadowLastChange 14816 and shadowMax 99999). The last time I did this seriously for authentication was using Apple

I have an installation where we're replacing a rather old Linux box with a new one that has no parallel ports. The old box has two parallel ports going to Okidata printers. The IOGEAR GUC1284B USB to Parallel Adapter cable looks like it might be a simple solution to this, but I would like to know that it works before getting a couple. Comments?

We use a home-brew system similar to fail2ban to block traffic from IP addresses which appear to be doing Nasty Things(tm). The main thing our system does that fail2ban doesn't is to use a central DNSRBL we maintain allowing it to immedatiately ban listed IP addresses the first time they make an attempt to connection without waiting for them to hit a sufficient number of times to bring up the

I am building a CentOS 5 box to ship to Houston which will be a gateway system on an SBC DSL connection for a while until the client gets a T1 installed.
