Has anyone got Bastille-linux running on Centos-5.6? http://bastille-linux.sourceforge.net claims RHEL5 support but I ran into problems running it on a Centos 5.6 test system. First I had to "ln -s /usr/lib64/Bastille /usr/lib" just to get it to run at all. Then I tried faking /etc/redhat-release with Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.6 ... but I get this (why would it want

Hi all, Been using Cacti for monitoring various things like, system disk/mem/ proc, network usage, router usage etc... While its been fun, the graphs are just unruly. Was looking an OpsView (the free version), wondering what your experience with this type of trend/heuristic analysis has been and what what you like. And of course thoughts on OpsView. - aurf

Hi Is there any ETA for the SRPM's from the base tree of 5.6? I need to get my hands on the src for the centos-release package as i have to rebuilt it to prevent the repo definitions from being included. I see the src's for the updates RPM's but not the base. many thanks

I'm a Thunderbird user almost since day one, but now I'm looking for something else. For whatever reason, it doesn't work well for me - every once in a while it becomes non-responsive (UI completely frozen for several seconds, CPU usage goes to 100%) and I just can't afford to waste time waiting for the email software to start working again. My main desktop platform is Linux,

Currently I have VNC running on my Windows desktop with Samba providing access to my Linux server. Since Linux is more reliable than Windows, I would like to be able to access my Linux (Centos 5.5) via my Windows notebook - hopefully via VNC or some similar application and then access the Windows desktop (if it is not locked up :-) ) with Samba. What is the best VNC like application to

5.6 is out. That is good news. I did a yum update on one of my non-critical server, and the server stoped responding to ping after the reboot, and never answered back. It's now been 10 minutes, so I'll have to take a ride to the colo... Nice work dev team, keep up the good work. Let's hope that C6 will come soon ! I'm eager to upgrade.

Hi ! I have a server (Centos 5) that is using a pair of SAS drives to store the data. (Mail server) They are on an adaptec raid controler with a battery backup and write back cache active. >From time to time, I have sever peak io to those data disks (> 400 to 500 iops, > 70 to 100 megs/sec). With iostat, I find that it's almost a write i/o problem. How can I find to which files

Is it possible that the kernel in the centosplus repo is not up to date ? The centosplus kernel I have is kernel-PAE-2.6.18-238.5.1.el5 and the regular one is 2.6.18-238.9.1.el5... I need the plus because of the firewire drivers. Regards,

This has been puzzling me for some time and despite bothering Auntie Google rather a lot, I've yet to find a satisfying answer. As an old-time (since 1981) unix and X guy, I've generally been fairly well-able to get fonts to behave in a rational manner. My needs are pretty simple - I just want 8-point (or 9-point etc) fonts to appear on the screen as 8-point font - ie more or less 8 *

Hi list ! We have a very busy webserver hosted in a clustered environment where the document root and data is on a GFS2 partition off a fiber-attached disk array. Now on busy moments, I can see in htop, nmon that there is a fair percentage of cpu that is waiting for I/O. In nmon, I can spot that the most busy block device correspond to our gfs2 partition where many times, it shows that

Hi ! As some of you might know, Apple has discontinued it's xServes server as of january 31st 2011. We have a server rack with 12 xserves ranging from dual G5's to dual quand-core xeon lastest generation, 3 xserve-raid and one activeraid 16 TB disk enclosure. We also use xSan to access a shared file system among the servers. Services are run from this shared filesystem, spreaded

Hi ! On an 8-node cluster, one of the node did a kernel panic. The only bit of information I have is on a ssh console I had open, which said : Message from syslogd at node108 at Dec 14 19:00:15 ... kernel:------------[ cut here ]------------ Message from syslogd at node108 at Dec 14 19:00:15 ... kernel:invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Message from syslogd at node108 at Dec 14 19:00:15 ...

Hi ! I'm about to deploy a new server that will host several virtual host for mainly website hosting purposes. My server will be a Xeon 3440 or 3450 with 32 gigs of ram (the max of that board). So I will have 8 logical cores. At the moment, I don't know how many vms I will have, in the order of 5 or 6. I am quite new to managing VMs, I did play alot with them over the course of the

I've got a 1Tb USB disc that appears to be dying - eg it took about 10 days (!) to run 'badblocks -nsv /dev/sdc' and it only did less than 2% in that time. Read access became _really_ slow. So there's definitely something amiss and I've got it offline. There's no drama about the content as I have other backups and I'm resigned to junking the thing, but I'm curious

Hi! Just wondering if anyone has this working ... Centos-7 guest in VMware-10 host (on Windows-7 :-( ) Out of the box, shared folders and drag&drop do not work although X screen resolution sensing is fine (ie xrandr reports the resolution of the host screen as well as the peculiar screen options built-in) and I can Alt-Enter to full screen quite happily. I tried Fedora-22 too but did

Now that netflix is in Australia, I wouldn't mind giving it a burl. It's working fine on my fedora-21 lappy with chrome-40 but not on our centos-6 mythtv setup even with chrome-41. I understand the difference might be the version of NSS - fedora-21 has 3.17 while centos is stuck at 3.16. Other than that, I'm flumoxed. Anyone got netflix running on centos-6? Cheers Bob

if I call a helper method from inside a partial, it doesn''t appear to have access to the partials local variables. is there a way to make them avilable without passing them as parameters? here''s a simple example # in the view <%= render :partial => "my_partial", :locals => :value => 2%> # _my_partial.rhtml - raises "undefined local variable or

Is there a way to get to get past the cga type centos 4 install screen where it says To begin testing the cd media etc etc...... and shows the OK or SKIP selections... ...and get to a "text shell command prompt" and *eject* the cd so I can reboot the machine from remote??? I have a remote console drac connection, yet for once we sent the hired guns home for the weekend and I am a
