Remote-logging nginx? (or other non-syslog-enabled stuff)
I'm looking for suggestions as to a good general method of
remote-logging services such as nginx or anything else which doesn't
support syslog natively.
I'm aware that there's an nginx patch, and we're evaluating this. It
may be the way we fly.
However there are other tools which may not have a patch for which
remote logging would be useful. If there's a general soution

Dell PERC H800 commandline RAID monitoring tools
We're looking for tools to be used in monitoring the PERC H800 arrays on
a set of database servers running CentOS 5.5.
We've installed most of the OMSA (Dell monitoring) suite.
Our current alerting is happening through SNMP, though it's a bit hit or
miss (we apparently missed a couple of earlier predictive failure alerts
on one drive).
OMSA conflicts with mega-cli, though we may

Default permissions for creating a new user
I know this is a Linux 101 question, however I am unable to
locate the answer in my O'Reilly Linux book: how to set the
default for permissions when creating a new user. The default
for the GUI in my newly installed Centos 5.5 is 700. I usually
use 774.
And when root creates a new directory, is there a way to have a
default there too?
Lastly, if root or someone with root privileges

Gnu Screen - terminal issues
I really like gnu screen and use it everyday but there's one thing
that is a bit inconvenient, and that's the odd line wrapping and
terminal size issues that seem to pop up. The problem crops up when I
type or paste a really long command, and then go back and try to edit
it; the text starts to wrap over itself and you have no idea what you
are editing. Any fixes for this?

email to web posting software?
Dear CentOS,
I have a user group that would like to be able to routinely post (easily)
emails to a web site. Must be usable without special training. I have no
experience with this. Anyone have a suggestion? LAMP stack installed.

Printers, aka an old time sysadmin
Well, today, I feel like a real, old time sysadmin. Now, I didn't have to
write a driver in assembly for the printer, but....
We got this huge, 44" HP Designjet z3200ps printer. Only supports Win and
Mac. Fine, I hang it off of one of our servers on a subnet (at $0.96/foot
paper, we're the only ones who print on it....). Then I'm thinking that
all I really need is a .ppd. My

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Recommendation for a Good Vulnerability Scanning Service?
Hi,
Can someone recommend a good vulnerability scanning service? I just
need the minimum for PCI compliance (it's a sort of credit card
processing certification).
I got a free scan from https://www.hackerguardian.com/ and their scan
reported a number of "Fail" results. I haven't checked them all yet
but most seem to be things for which fixes were backported looong ago

Server hangs on CentOS 5.5
Hi --
I'm running a server which is usually stable, but every
once in a while it hangs. The server is used as a file
store using NFS and to run VMware machines.
I don't see anything in /var/log/messages or elsewhere
to indicate any problem or offer any clue why the system
was hung.
Any suggestions where I might look for a clue?

wich filesystem to store > 250E6 small files in same or hashed dire
Hi
I need to store about 250.000.000 files. Files are less than 4k.
On a ext4 (fedora 14) the system crawl at 10.000.000 in the same directory.
I tried to create hash directories, two level of 4096 dir = 16.000.000
but I had to stop the script to create these dir after hours
and "rm -rf" would have taken days ! mkfs was my friend
I tried two levels, first of 4096 dir, second of 64

file system replication
Hi Everyone,
I need to keep 2 systems identical. Mostly e-mail directories, web
directories, mysql, etc. The goal here is to have a 2nd system ready to go
it the first one starts to exhibit hardware issues.
What are options to have this happen? I'm going out on a limb and thinking
rsync but I haven't used it past just simple use cases.
Can anyone provide some insight for me?

Swap space for kvm virtual host
I have a kvm virtual host running on what will become CentOS 6 with 12GB
of memory and a Quad Xeon X5560 2.8Ghz . The store for virtual
machines will be a software raid 6 array of 6 disks with an LVM layered
on top. I'm not initially planning any major overcommitment of
resources, though there could be a need for some overcommitment with a
light workload on the guests.

web collaboration packages.
Hello All,
Try as I might, I cannot get Zimbra 8.0.3 to install on CentOS 6.4, even
with --platform override. I followed some tutorials even that show the
result working and nada.
Can anyone suggest a good setup for e-mails erving, calendaring, web mail?
Web mail is particularly important for my wife so she can check e-mail when

CentOS 6.5 equivalents in CentOS 7
I tried to install CentOS 7 on a new system. It works.
However, I'm noticing small things:
1. system-config-network-tui is not installed and yum cannot find it. I

What about firewall? I can't seem to understand the replacement from

Can anyone talk infrastructure with me?
Hi All,
I started a 501c3 (not-for-profit) organization back in February 2011 to deal with information archival. A long vision here, I wont bore you with the details (if you really want to know, e-mail me privately) but the gist is I need to build an infrastructure to accommodate about 2PB of data that is database stuff, stored video, crawl data, static data sets, etc. Right now in my testing of

Do I need a dedicated firewall?
Hi All,
So my electricity bill is through the roof and I need to pair down some
equipment.
I have a CentOS 6.5 Server (a few TB, 32gb RAM) running some simple web
stuff and Zimbra. I have 5 static IP's from Comcast. I am considering
giving this server a public IP and plugging it directly into my cable
modem. This box can handle everything with room for me to do more.
Doing this would allow
