Hello, This isn't exactly CentOS specific, but it does reference the CentOS way of doing things, so offlist replies might be better. I'm running a CentOS 5.4 server with postfix as MTA with virtual mailbox domains. I have set up a mailing list server lists.example1.com using apache virtual hosts and the mailman rpm. Now i want to add a second one call it lists.example2.com and am not sure

being used to mysql 5.1 on my fedora system, i'm suddenly looking after a centos 5.4 box with mysql 5.0.77. before i start digging into the mysql 5.0-5.1 changelog, do i have a lot to worry about in terms of mentally backing up one version? or is simply upgrading the centos box to mysql 5.1 an option? (i realize that mysql 5.1 is *not* officially supported in centos 5.4.) rday --

I have successfully built an install CD following the instructions at: http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/VncHeadlessInstall Now I am trying to do the same with FC10 and I am failing in two ways. I have tried to find a similar howto for even FC9, but have not found the right google magic. The first problem should be small. When I set isolinux.cfg to start with: prompt 1 timeout 0 I

Hi, I tried: mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=5.4&arch=x86_64&repo=os but it gives me ...snippel 5.4 is not a valid release or hasnt been released yet/ snappel... Why is that ? -- best regards, markus

Hi, I have an issue with my XEN servers, in that when I do a yum upgrade, it upgrades the kernels, and then updates the grub.conf file to boot with the normal Linux kernel, and not the XEN kernel - and I tend to forget to update the grub.conf, until I reboot and see XEN isn't running. So, is it safe to remove the normal kernel & kernel-development, and only run the XEN kernel? This is

I updated my secondary DNS server from 5.3 to 5.4 today. After the update, named would not start. A bit of investigation found that all of the files in /var/named/chroot/var/named/data had been turned into links to themselves! Fortunately, since this is a secondary DNS, all I had to do was delete the files, replace the root hints file and let everything else copy back over from the master. If

Hi, I have a CentOS 3 server that I need to update to MySQL 5 + PHP4. I downloaded and installed the MySQL client and server RPM packages for Red Hat 3, including the Shared Compatibility Libraries which provide /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.10, .12, .14 and .15, which seems to be the recommended way of upgrading a MySQL 3 installation. I then went on to recompile PHP 4.4.7, which worked

Hello Rowland, Thanks for the pointer. The good news is I have it working. The bad news is there appears to be a problem. Both machines are on the same subnet. I tried to connect from the win10 1803 box to the nas box which has the netbios name of example2. It took almost a minute before I was prompted for login credentials. Is this normal? Is there anything I can do about it? Again thanks.

I am fairly new to xen and am trying to build a new guest using virt-manager. When I get to the screen where you can choose virtual or shared physical device there are no physical devices to choose from. Is there some step that I have missed while setting up my Dom0? -Joel Coopersmith Sr. Systems and Networking Analyst joel.coopersmith@accenture.com

Since my power problems that resulted in a re-install I have a problem which I've failed to locate up to now.

I'm trying to install CentOS 5.4 on a machine with a LSI SAS 1068E controller. I've googled all over the place and found a few different drivers for RHEL5 for it.. and tried a few of them.. Some will load, some complain that this isn't the correct version.. non of them work when it comes to showing Hard Drivers in the partition manager. The machine is a Supermicro SYS-6015V-M3

Using CentOS 5.1 with Xen 3.2. I'm trying to install a fully virtualized system for the first time and doing this with an old Suse 9.0 (this probably would run paravirtualized, maybe it won't run, anyway, because of hardware problems). I start with virt-manager and after choosing "fully virtualized" it presents me two options for install media: iso image and CD-ROM or DVD,

Hello: Is there a command in virsh to shutdown all domains? I can do one at a time, but that is untenable for a large number of domains.

I''m trying to get DHCP working with DomU clients. I don''t want to use libvirtd. There''s a dhcpd on the machine and it works fine for all clients in the network, but not for DomUs. If I set a static IP on the DomU all networking for them is fine, so there''s no general networking problem. I use the xen 3.2 packages for CentOS on CentOS 5.1. There was a public

My test box has an AMD dual core processor in it, giving me 2 physical cpu''s. If I overcommit the vcpu''s (eg vcpus=4) to simulate a 4 cpu machine, how accurate a simulation should it be (apart from performance sucking badly)?

I converted a physical maschine running CentOS 4.6 to a Xen VM on a CentOS 5 host. Almost everything was running when I decided to rsync /lib and /usr a while later in order to get updated files and get the one or two non-working programs to work. There are differences because of the xenU kernel I didn't think about. I forgot to exclude rpm database and /lib/modules. Because the synced

Hello, i am creating my XEN VM with virt-install (see below). When I create new images i do first an "df -h" to see if there is still enough space left on the drive. Are the XEN images pre allocated or does XEN only use that space that really is used by the VM inside the image? I know have the Problem that an "du -h" inside my /VM folder gives me nearly a higher number that

I'm new to streaming or music hearing over the wire, I still prefer my old-fashioned stereo equipment :-) But a friend asked me to setup a shoutcast server for him, so I went out and installed it, played a bit with it and didn't like it. So I looked for an open source alternative and found Icecast. Installed fine, works fine. But there is one thing which puzzles me and I hope someone

I created my first Xen VM that didn't use a static IP address. It grabs an IP from the 198.168.122.0 subnet (from I don't know where). I would rather want it to use my DHCP server.
