Hello listmates, I am wondering if there is a set of scripts/utilities for automatically starting and running headless (no X11) VM's using VirtualBox omn a CentOS 6 server. VNC/RDP access to the VM's would be fine. Any help much appreciated. Cheers, Boris.

Hello listmates, I can't find the 32 bit version of Centos 7. Would it be because I am not looking in the right place or does it not exist at all? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, So, what's the story with CentOS 6? It is supposed to be out by now, or coming out soon, or so I heard - but yet there seems to be no mention of it at http://centos.org/ . Does anybody know what's up with that? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, I would like to build a 12-15 TB RAID 5 data server to run under ContOS. Any recommendations as far as hardware, configuration, etc? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, I have discovered a very strange SFTP problem which I can not connect to anything but NIS thus far. See here: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-server-73/sftp-seems-to-fail-for-nis-accounts-under-openssh-5-x-816020/ http://readlist.com/lists/suse.com/suse-linux-e/38/193419.html Hence the question: is NIS (YP) still in use much anywhere for authentication? Thanks.

Hello listmates, I have two seemingly identical (in this reglard, at least) machine - both of them are running CentOS 6.2 with bind (bind-chroot) installed. I used webmin to edit the DNS configuration. One one of them it seems to work fine, on the other I get messages akin to the following: Failed to create master zone : Failed to replace /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf with

Hello listmates, I have a machine that is running Centos 5.8. I am trying to install MediaWiki 1.19 on it and that requires PHP 5.3 which I got from the combination of the Remi and EPEL repositories. But now I can not fet a working PHP MySQL connector for it. Does anybody know where I can find one? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, Is there a good manual anywhere on how to boot a dual-boot Linux/Windows machine into Linux and launch the Windows as a XEN virtual machine? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, If I have a regular, ACL-capable filesystem on Linux (say, ext4 or xfs) is there a way for me to establish the following: 1) There is a directory, say, /home/joe . It is owned by user joe . No one but joe (and root, of course) can read or write anything in this directory. 2) No one can change permissions on that directory, not even joe. In other words, in joe all of a sudden

Hello listmates, Yes, I know - Macs and NFS do not co-exist easily. Still I've got to make this happen somehow. In short - we have two CentOS-based NFS servers. They work fine with a variety of Linux machines but when I try to mount them from a Mac OS X 10.5 or 10.6 machine I get nowhere. I.e., the Mac does not complain yet reads nothing over the NFS. Has anybody seen this? Does anybody

Hello listmates, This is not specifically CentOS-related - though I will probably execute this design on CentOS if I decide to do so. It will certainly be some kind of Linux. At any rate, here's my situation. I would like to build a fairly large storage solution (let us say, 100 TB). I want this solution to be distributed and redundant. I want to be able to lose part of the machines involved

Hello listmates, It appears that on the second machine in a row (CentOS 5.5, 32 bit) if I am trying to place a VM into a file located in XFS the machine just hangs (the host machine, not the VM). If I place the VM in a raw device or in a file in ext3 all seems to work perfectly. Is that just a coincidence or is there a reason for this madness? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, It's been a few years since I've set up a router... and for some reason I seem to be getting hung up on this one. Does anybody have a sample iptables config file that would incorporate NAT and forwarding for a simple router? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, We are currently running NIS for authentication but would like to migrate to LDAP. Thing is, though, that some of the machines that authenticate via NIS are so old I'd rather not even touch them. Hence the question - is there a good way to have an NIS server for user authentication that is a mirror image of an LDAP server, with a proviso that an update introduced there is

Hello listmates, I have encountered a rather peculiar situation. We have a Centos 6 VM (64 bit) running on a VMware vSphere 5.5 server. It was running just fine until one day I decided to reboot it and it just would not boot up. Effectively, dracut failed to initialize the LVM, much like under the scenario described here:

Hello listmates, Somehow or other my DNS services that are part of the ndjbdns-1.06-1.el7.x86_64 package would not start properly at startup. When I then start them up using systemctl: systemctl start dnscache systemctl start tinydns they start just fine. >From the log I got the following for tinydns: Oct 24 15:01:43 ns99 tinydns[1867]: tinydns: version 1.06: starting: Oct-24 2014 15:01:43

i am a bit confused to what you want...do you mean you want a scan converter? you can plug a vga out of the laptops to the scan converter, take another vga from the scan converter to a projector, and a svhs or composite out from the scan converter to the encoding machine you can buy them for about 200 USD or less or do i misunderstand your question? adam ..on Thu, Mar 16, 2006 at

Hello listmates, As some of you may know we have been having a really bad problem with Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8169 cards. See here for details: http://forum.nginx.org/read.php?24,140124,140224 So now my question is, what PCI 1 Gbit/s Ethernet adapters should I use under CentOS? If you have had a consistent positive experience with any particular chipset/brand please speak up.

OK, thanks again for all your help. I have resolved this, finally. The problem was that I configured VLAN 48 as the native VLAN on the trunk port.That was a mistake as apparently the native VLAN is the one where Cisco does not bother to tag packets. For now I set the native VLAN to VLAN 1 and that works. Cheers, Boris. On Sun, Jan 25, 2015 at 7:13 PM, Boris Epstein <borepstein at

Hello listmates, I have been playing with Xen VM's and was wondering what the minimum RAM size in which you could run CentOS 5.5 (i386). So far I managed to install in 256 MB or 512 MB and then shrink the VM's RAM to 128 MB and still run the installation. Would anyone know why the install in a 128 MB VM fails (even in text mode)? Thanks. Boris.
