Hi all, We have a bit of a problem with backups. We've been using bacula to tape and now trying to disk but it's a complete nightmare as regards tape management. The backup to file storage went ok for ages and now is stuck 'waiting for max storage jobs' which is odd as that's set to 20 and it's the only backup running. That's totally typical of bacula. Can anyone

Has anyone successfully built a USB key for installing centos5.5 either manually or using a tool like unetbootin? I am trying to create one using the 64bit install DVD iso and so far the USB either won't boot (unetbootin) or the installation aborts after I select the iso location on the USB key (manual). Thanks, David

I've got a bit of a problem with Samba. I just can't work out how to change passwords or remove users. I've just got user security.. lines in smb.conf are: security = user passdb backend = tdbsam I've removed the user using pdbedit, I've removed the unix user, smbpasswd says the user doesn't exist yet I can still connect to the shares. I'm

Hi all, sorry for being OT but would any of you recommend a ticketing system? We'd like something pretty comprehensive to cover helpdesk and HR stuff as well as software bugs/requests. There seems to be a million variations out there.

I was wondering if anyone could advise me on this. I've got two Samba servers, each using passdb.tdb for authentication. All works well, but I've now been asked to let users change their own passwords (a requirement of data secuity). What's the best way of arranging this, preferably updating both servers at the same time? thanks

Hi all, I'm just trying to get Dell openmanage to run on my Centos 5.6 box. The monitoring stuff appears to have installed but the web server stuff is complaining it needs openwsman 2.2.3 or later and I can only find that for RHEL/Centos 6, not 5. Can anyone point me at a suitable rpm, or do I have to resort to compiling it? Surely I'm not the only one trying to do this. -- Kevin

Hi guys, any CUPS / Samba experts out there? The CUPS printing guide is a horrendous maze of options. I've got nearly there but I've got one thing wrong and I don't know where to look. I set up our two printers (HP K5400s) using the GUI printer tool. Both print the test page just fine. I set up the [printers] and [print$] shares and can browse to the printers from Windows (XP for me)

Can anyone point me towards a pre-built kernel 2.6.20 for CentOS 5? I need the later version to run Yosemite backup. I thought I was being clever and installed a Fedora kernel and it worked 99%, sadly the bit that didn't was the tape device which rather spoiled things. thanks, Kevin Thorpe

Sorry to be a pain but I'd really like PyDB2 (DB2 client for python). IBM only seem to offer the source which won't compile without a copy of DB2. I only need it to extract some info from a customer site so I don't really want to have to get DB2. any ideas? thanks

Dear All, I'm replacing an older OpenSuse server with a new Centos6.4 server. So far that goes ok, except that the OpenSuse server is also a samba server with ldap connection. Since I replaced all but 2 machines in the building from Windows to Linux, I was hoping not to install Samba on the new server. ( And also because I can't get it to work on Centos. ) I saw a post on the

I recently acquired a Fujitsu Lifebook 1610. Unfortunately, the machine was missing a lot of the stuff that would've come with it brand new, mainly the usb cdrom drive. Currently, I'm running Fedora on it, and I installed it using a usb flash drive with the help of a program called unetbootin(Probably not spelled right). to load the ISO onto the USB drive. I've successfully used

The only PCI-X card I have is an old ICP Vortex RAID controller and the Dell hangs with that installed (BIOS is disabled). It's only for a tape drive so performance isn't really an issue. thanks

Hi! I'm not a programmer, so I will try and be as clear as I can. I currently have an Acer Aspire One which has issues with syslinux 4.06 When I try and make a usb bootable install key using common automated programs under windows (Universal USB installer from Pendrivelinux, LiLi and unetbootin), they all fail when booted on the netbook. Now, I know it's an issue with syslinux for many

Hello. I try to install from the netinstall iso file. Everything works as I expect up to the screen where I have to choose between "Desktop", "Minimal Desktop", "Minimal", etc. If I choose either "Desktop" or "Minimal Desktop", I have a pop up saying "Installation Starting" with "Starting installation process", and, about a

Hi all, My only encounter with tape-backup was with Windows 2000. With it, when we backup things using windows' backup tool, it will create a 'catalog', then the catalog contains all the backup operations we do based on date. So, with this we can "append" many backups into one tape. Next time we want to restore a backup, we can choose what date available in that
