I downloaded and unpacked the current WINE CVS .tar.bz2 from "Andis Wine Files". Then I go into that directory and do the following: zwei:/home/wine # export CVSROOT=:pserver:cvs@rhlx01.fht-esslingen.de:/home/wine zwei:/home/wine # cvs login (Logging in to cvs@rhlx01.fht-esslingen.de) CVS password: cvs zwei:/home/wine # cvs diff -u dlls/kernel/comm.c cvs [server aborted]: no such

google for "centos error performing checksum" refers to createrepo but of course "yum install createrepo" also fails and the instructions appear to be overkill.

guys, i have the yum plugin -> fastest mirror . But not even once i have seen it selecting repos which are near my region such as japan or australia ( where i get the best speeds).

Hi, recently we upgraded a central RHEL 5 fileserver to the latest RH EL 5.1 rpms, including samba. (samba-3.0.23c-2.el5.2 update to samba-3.0.25b-1.el5_1.4) Now some users have the problem, that opening a word or excel file saved on a samba share takes up to 30 seconds. Today I could verify this on the users desktop XP PC. This problem occures only from time to time, so it may be also a

I just noticed this error in my messages log after restarting sendmail. The only change I have made is 1) manual fix in /usr/share/spamassassin/72_active.conf 2) sa-update (several times) Now the mail is not running ok, my mail queue keeps growing. Regards, Jussi Hirvi

I managed to update my CVS tree, but not by the method described on http://www.winehq.com/devstart.shtml, that is export CVSROOT=:pserver:cvs@cvs.winehq.com:/home/wine cvs login cvs update -PAd but rather by doing this cvs -d CVSROOT=:pserver:cvs@cvs.winehq.com:/home/wine login cvs -d CVSROOT=:pserver:cvs@cvs.winehq.com:/home/wine update -PAd which, if the documentation has anything to say,

Something seems to be wrong with my file systems, and I want to fsck everything. But I cannot. The setup consists of 2 hds, carrying 3 raid1 (ext3) file systems (boot, /, swap). OS is up-to-date CentOS 5. So I boot from CentOS 5.3 dvd in rescue mode, do not mount the file systems, and try to run fsck -y /dev/md0 fsck -y /dev/md1 fsck -y /dev/md2 For each try I get an error message:

What should I do to make an existing CentOS (5.4) disc boot up on a new computer? I just made on CentOS 5.3 installation on that machine, so I know the hardware is compatible. Would it be enough to boot with a DVD in rescue mode, or boot with another hd, and install grub? - Jussi -- Jussi Hirvi * Green Spot Topeliuksenkatu 15 C * 00250 Helsinki * Finland Tel. +358 9 493 981 * Mobile +358

I am working on my first vim script. The script is supposed to do some find/replace on a file, then save the file with a new name and quit vim. I will save the script in a file and then call it from a bash script like this: vim path-to-the-file -s path-to-my-script Maybe I have not found the right resources. I can find/replace with expressions that are similar to those I use manually, for

I am sure this is really simple. I have a setup of 2 disks (sda, sdb) which are outwardly identical, and are mirrors of each other. Together they form 3 raid1 devices. Both disks can boot. Now sda has bad sectors, and I should replace it. But which one of the physical disks is sda?? The machine boots fine from either one of the disks, (and the booting disk of course is always called sda).

There are some googlable ways to feed a list of filenames to vim, but I stumble on weird results. With my filelist, I try to do cat list | xargs vim ...to edit the files listed in the file "list". Here's what happens: [root at lasso2 tempdir]# ls -l total 8 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 May 17 18:28 a -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 May 17 18:28 b -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3 May 17

Hi, CentOS 5.x, Sendmail 8.13.8. I would like to start using disk quotas on my Sendmail server, and optimally they should be configurable by user or group. How can this be done?

Mailman works well for our mailing lists, but the archive is unacceptable - the worst thing is lack of search function. I got one tip for this: 1) emails converted to html format with mhonarc 2) search can be done with htdig Opinions? Maybe there are better software solutions for this - I hope. - Jussi -- Jussi Hirvi * Green Spot Topeliuksenkatu 15 C * 00250 Helsinki * Finland Tel. +358 9

I tried installing with several options (noacpi noapm; noprobe; noprobe skipddc noacpi noapm nodma). Always I get the same error. BUT this is not in fac a CentOS problem at all, because I get the same error always when I boot from hd (Fedora Core), IF there is a CD in the CD-ROM drive. (I tried with CentOS 1/4, CentOS 2/4 and a HP printer software CD.) It must be something with the CD drive!

Ok, I give up... I have to ask. This is CentOS 5. I switched one of my raid1 disks, and I already thought I had succeeded. But now it seems that something is very wrong with the first partition on the new disk. Luckily my system is fully bootable with the other disk. Here's some info. The new disk is sdb. // I removed all partitions with parted, and created the first one again. // parted
