similar to: yum downgrade working?

I manage a web hosting server that we've recently upgraded, in part so we could accommodate a domain that will enable community mapping. In a recent exchange of mails one developer said: "I could build the package directly on the server machine you have, provided that the potential security risk posed by having compilers installed is not an issue." and another said:

For about a week a biug stack of updates have been pending for CENTOS but I can't install them. The yum update command leads to dependency resolution in the usual way but it always ends in this: ---> Package poppler-utils.i386 0:0.5.4-4.4.el5_4.11 set to be updated ---> Package xorg-x11-drv-qxl.i386 0:0.0.12-1.2.el5 set to be updated --> Running transaction check -->

I am curious what is the best way to upgrade my dom0 and domUs to V.6 (currently 5) when it releases. Any experience or docs on this? Dave -- "It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society." Krishnamurti

Hi, I'm using CentOS on a box that, among other things, offers mailman mailing lists, currently mailman 2.1.9. Version 2.1.14 is avilable from the developers but integrating it into the system promises to be tedious. I looked at RHEL 6 and don't know where to look to find the version there, which I assume will be the version in CentOS 6. Can anyone either confirm what version

Hello All, I don't have any reason to believe CENTOS (5.4) is underlying my difficulties but it's what I've got to work with so here's the setup: I have a 2P motherboard with 2 Opteron 2376s and two ethernet ports. The setup is fully virtualized, with Dom0, dom4 and Dom1 up and running. dom4 is attached to a dhcp service on eth0 and has no problems. I've recently

I have a CentOS server with postfix running. A pop user's account was compromised and a lot of spam started being sent. My upstream ISP's mail program started refusing to talk to me because of the very high rate of mail, error 451. I disabled the compromised account. I then changed the postfix settings to deliver mail directly and flushed the mail queue. This resulted in spam

A couple of days ago I run yum update to take care of installing new updates for evolution.i386, evolution-data-server.i386 and nscd.i386 . The update went through with no fuss. Yesterday when I ran check-update I got the exact same updates list. So I did not run yum update, thinking this was a sync error or a repo issue. Today (just a few minutes ago) I ran the update check again and got the

Hi, I have a problem on my server. To illustrate, I created a new user, unclewiggly, and set up a password. I then used sent an email from my usual account. Logging in with my browser I am able to see the inbox, the mail and contents correctly. I then set up a new instance of Eudora 7.1 on my windows 7 box with the appropriate login id and check the account using the correct password.

Hi, I have a Centos 5 box with dom0 and several domUs and one of them is not runnable. I ran updates several days ago and the update included a kernel update so I used virt-manager to reboot. But it won't book. It shows as not running and when I try to run it I get a dialog box with this: Traceback (most recent call last): File

I'm in yum dependency hell using epel, rpmforge and rpmfusion repos to install vlc on 32 bit Centos 5.5. Anyone have a better idea? Doesn't really have to be vlc I just want to be able to play a dvd and Movie Player complains about missing plugins without saying what they are.

Hi, I have a server running Centos 5.2 and am implementing a GIS mapserver app. I have some sample logs from another implementation that give me an idea of bandwidth requirements but I would like to check the cpu load. I can not be at the server during the test and am interested in knowing if there is logging of cpu load available. Anyone have experience with this? Recommendations? Dave --

I have a degraded raid array (originally raid-10, now only two drives) that contains an LVM volume. I can see in the appended text that the Xen domains are there but I don't see how to mount them.
