Hi All, What tips does everyone have on hardening a CenOS Server that is running web, e-mail, ssh, ftp, mysql, coldfusion and will be processing payments from www? -Jason

My 12 year old wants to learn more about servers and has memorized a lot of commands like ls, chmod, du, etc. He wants to have his own domain and server on the web and I have enough Static IP's, so why not foster this interest. I have an old ultra sparc 5. Are there any CentOS versions that support Sparc? Or recommendations? I know OpenBSD does, but I am more versed in Solaris and versions

Hi All, I am looking at ZFS and I get that they call it RAIDZ which is similar to RAID 5, but what about RAID 10? Isn''t a RAID 10 setup better for data protection? So if I have 8 x 1.5tb drives, wouldn''t I: - mirror drive 1 and 5 - mirror drive 2 and 6 - mirror drive 3 and 7 - mirror drive 4 and 8 Then stripe 1,2,3,4 Then stripe 5,6,7,8 How does one do this with ZFS?

Hi All, I am trying to add a 3Ware 9500S-8 RAID controller to a CentOS 5.4 box. I have the drivers from 3Ware and they seem to be a .ko file (which I presume is like a .kext on OSX) How do I install these? Searched turn up people talking about Kernel panics with .ko's but I dont see anything that points to to installing one so I can use the card. Best, -Jason

a hd in my server failed. I noticed when I went to SSH in and get a copy of some files in /var/www/html I tried to tar the files and I was told No, read-only file system. I restarted and tried running FSCK manually (without -a or -p) and I get inode errors, short reads, etc. I tried booting to my CentOS 53 install DVD. I do linux rescue and I get to where it wants to know where CentOS images

Hi All, I have a server that is running nicely, except I have hit the maximum RAM (4gb) and I wish to add more. It is an ASUS board, AMD X64 dual core, nvidia nic. What I want going to move to is a dell board, Intel Pentium M dual code, which supports 8gb of RAM. Can I just unplug the HD and move it to the new server and boot it up? I assume that the NIC will need to be re-setup, but what

Hi All, I have spent a better part of my 32 years on this earth writing Solaris software and more recently leaving that and returning back to Mac OS. I obviously know about GCC and the Intel C++ Compilers. I am looking to have more freedom and flexibility along with producing better quality software. How does LLVm fit in? I know that it is a C/C++ Compiler, but how do I use it? Is it

Hi All, I see that sparc.centos.org does not contain any ISO's so that I can install from CD. How does one install over the internet? I have never done it before. I assume use the boot.iso and make sure that I have DHCP turned on so that I get an IP automatically from my router? Any advice? -Jason

Hi All, I need to write a script that I will manually start (or a cron job in future) but I need it to do a number of things in order one after another. How do i do that so everything gets dont as the steps depend on each other. Example: cd /system_backups/ tar cvf apache-conf.tar /etc/httpd/conf/* gzip -v9 apache-conf.tar tar cvf apache-data.tar /var/www/* gzip -v9 apache-data.tar

Hi All, I am working on setting up Postfix and I have a few questions: 1. mynetworks = Do I put my public static IP here? So I am hosting at another provider on my own dedicated hardware. Do I put that machines IP or the IP of my apartment where I want to access from? Second, do I have to know the Ip information for my BlackBerry to work as well? 2. relaying: Obviously I dont want to be

Hi All, How does one create a cron job that runs commands like: /usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -config=xxx.com -update /usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -config=yyy.com -update Say every 15 mins? -Jason

Hi All, Where is the proper place to put .htpasswd so I can password protect directories in /var/www/html? /etc/httpd/run? -Jason

HI All, I have a dilemma and I would appreciate advice 1. Get a good size case, mobo, processor, etc and put 8 hard drives it in and RAID them. (yes an 8 port SATA mobo). Running CentOS. or 2. Get an eSATA enclosure that has room for 8 or 10 drives and just connect it to box? I know that RAID is not a full proof backup, but I am looking for a solution to store all of my data, projects, music,

Hi All, I have a CentOS 5.4 web server. I have some stuff that runs on 443. When I hit https://<the site> The user gets a warning saying that site identity could not be verified and the user can add an exception if they want. How do I stop this from happing? Do I need to buy an SSL cert? Aren't these really expensive per server and I have 5 servers I would need to do this too. Can

Hi All, Cent OS 5.3. I need to install the gcc toolchain, but what yum packages is this? I need to compile ProFTPD, etc, etc. I tried yum install gcc, what else? -Jason

Hello All, I build a new Storage Server to backup my data, keep archives of client files, etc I recently had a near loss of important items. So I built a 16 SATA bay enclosure (16 hot swappable + 3 internal) enclosure, 2 x 3Ware 8 port RAID cards, 8gb RAM, dual AMD Opertron. I have a 1tb boot drive and I put in 8 x 1.5tb Seagate 7200 drives. In the future I want to fill the other 8 SATA bays

I'd love to understand what the function of the peer list returned by 'sip show peers' is for, especially when Realtime is used. If I start Asterisk with realtime enabled, a 'sip show peers' yields none. As each peer (phone) registers, or a call is made to the peer, Asterisk adds them to the list returned by 'sip show peers'. Correct? Apparently Asterisk doesn't
