All, As much as I hate to ask, how is this project coming along? We are approaching the 4 month post-release point... -David -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/attachments/20110404/1e9862bd/attachment-0005.html>

Guys, I hear all your arguments against using FTP. I completely get all that. But I am making things a little bit safer by using virtual users that have no access to the file system. The ftp user account has a shell of /bin/false. And I was able to get proftpd working with SELinux using setsebool -P ftp_home_dir on. The client is recalcitrant to using any technology he doesn't know. I have

I've been out of pocket for a while, so don't shoot me, if this has already been brought up. I'm having a problem with my desktop freezing up, and I'm running Cent OS 6. It seems to happen while I'm running firefox. I'm not sure if it's firefox, or the OS that's locking up. When it freezes up, nothing will respond, so I'm inclined to think it's the OS

Hi, The thread titled "Another Fedora Decision" is rapidly turning into a political and opinion driven flame fest that is unsuited for the CentOS mailing list. This list should try and remain focused on CentOS, what we have and keep the area sane for new users as well as old hands to participate in a fair and thoughtful conversation around the CentOS Linux platform and the CentOS

Hi Jim, Thanks for putting in the effort here. It's never a good situation to have to moderate, but sometimes it is necessary. >From my perspective, this kind of thing happens far more often than the current example, though maybe not with such intensity. This situation forces me to evaluate if replying to any message on this list is going to be worth the headache of the inevitable noise

I've been reading up some about the new "secure boot" that's coming out on new machines when MS releases Win 8. Has a workaround been developed yet for those of us who don't want to run windows? Typically, I mostly build my own desktops, and I install cent os right from the start, but sometimes I do buy a desktop, and naturally it comes with windows on it, so I have to do a

Hi all, I have a Samba 3 machine joined to a AD Child Domain, which is a member of a large forrest. The machine joined the AD domain fine and it can query/log in to it. However for some reason Winbind is showing incomplete information. wbinfo -g shows groups from every domain in the forrest as it should, though wbinfo -u does not, it shows some of the child domains but does not show accounts

I had been running CentOS 5 happily on my Sun Fire X4200 M2 systems, then I upgraded the BIOS and iLOM firmware. Now I'm running into what seems to be a fairly common problem with newer motherboards. I cannot boot unless I use the 'noapic' kernel option. If I try to boot the kernel normally, I get the error: "MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC" I can
