Hello, Does anyone have an idee how to add /sbin to the sudo $PATH environment? Adding /sbin to .bashrc $PATH isn't really what I want... I'd like sudoers to be able to run: $ sudo chkconfig And not: $ sudo /sbin/chkconfig Thanks Sam

Hi I read and used the article http://blog.wazollc.com/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=2 to authenticate my ad accounts when logging on to cent 5...however, once I edit the nsswitch.conf file, I can't even log on as root or any local users anymore. Kinit seems to initialize fine doing a kinit username at MYDOMAIN.COM , however doing a getent passwd adusername ....it just sits there in the shell and

Is there a way to use kickstart to boot a machine into a manual setup process? Basically what I'm getting to is this, the machine doesn't not have a CD drive in it (nor can I add one), but I can boot it via kickstart. The install media is on the network. What I'd like to do is boot this machine up and rather than have kickstart do everything for me as far as installing the OS and

On the system I'm testing with the CD-Rom drive is IDE but the softlink at /dev/cdrom points to the scsi device and that's not working with the automounter for some reason.

Hello, I am going to build an email server on Centos for a small, private group of users and I just want to encrypt all communications between that server and the (remote) email clients of those users (or they browsers, when they use webmail). Client certificates are not necessary, at least now. I understand that to do that I need to create my own SSL CA, create with it a self signed certificate

On a Compaq DL360 G1 w/ dual PIII 1.27's I installed Centos 5 minimal and then a yum update When I do a "uname -a" I get this Linux tstsrvr.abbacomm.net 2.6.18-8.1.3.el5 #1 SMP Mon Apr 30 19:55:44 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux When I do a rpm -qa | grep kern* I get this kernel-devel-2.6.18-8.1.3.el5 kernel-2.6.18-8.1.3.el5 kernel-headers-2.6.18-8.1.3.el5 It is interesting

I've currently got the nx-1.5.0-1.centos4.i386, freenx-0.5.0-8.c4.noarch, and nxclient-1.5.0-141.i386 packages installed on a couple of CentOS 4 update 3 systems and I'm getting the same results on all of them. I got the new version of freenx via "yum update" and it appears to have "broken" fullscreen mode. The connection config file I have been using does have the

Hi List, Does anyone know of any type of radio tuner software available for CentOS in either 32 or 64-bit versions? The card is an ATI X600. I've got the video driver from ATI installed, but they do not have any other user level software available. I think I remember reading something about some software being available for the BT chipset, but I'm a tad out of date on that.

Hello: I am planning to implement GFS for my university as a summer project. I have 10 servers each with SAN disks attached. I will be reading and writing many files for professor's research projects. Each file can be anywhere from 1k to 120GB (fluid dynamic research images). The 10 servers will be using NIC bonding (1GB/network). So, would GFS be ideal for this? I have been reading a lot

Can anybody please suggest a suitable plugin to enable playing of mp3 files with either Totem or Rythmbox. Both of these come as part of the CentOS 5 package, but strangely neither has the necessary plugin for mp3, which surely is a common enough format in the music world? Thanks, Andy

I am trying to install perl-Digest-Perl-MD5 from rf and it is failing suggesting it needs /usr/bin/false. #yum whatprovides "/usr/bin/false" yields nothing.

How do I make the delimiter for cut be a single character with hex value 1e? I tried in a script file: DELIMITER='\x1e' DD=`echo $DATA | cut -f 1 --delimiter $DELIMITER` and it tells me: cut: the delimiter must be a single character Jerry

If so, how do you configure the up2date client that comes with CentOS to look at the local yum mirror? Conversely, how do you disable the CentOS Network Alert Notification Tool so that users won't see the "throbbing red circle" and be tempted to launch the up2date client? Thanks, Alfred

Hi, I have already installed 4.2 on my laptop, I only chose GNOME at install time. I now need to use up2date to install kde (I wish to install twinkle softphone). What is the correct way to do that. I did: up2date kde* up2date -u kde* up2date -i kde* It printed a listing of the packages but did not install them. Thanks, Jerry
