Is there a way to get Make to be silent when it does nothing, but have its normal verbosity when something is made? I want to use Make in a frequent cron job (every 1/2 hour, perhaps 10 minutes) but I don't want to get a bunch of emails telling me nothing was done (which will be most of the time). I just want to know when it found something to do.

I found a bug in Webmin when using Webmin with SELinux in Permissive Mode. The author of Webmin, asked me, in their bug tracker on SourceForge: > Ok, thanks ... I see the problem. Webmin opens the log file > /var/webmin/miniserv.error and connects STDERR to it, then runs other > commands like iptables, which inherits the STDERR file descriptor. > This is generally a good thing, as any

What's available to remotely monitor services? What I'd like is something that can run scripts for each service to connect to a port and verify that it's up, and then send me an SMS message (phone text) to let me know which, if any, are down. Also, does a script exist that checks all the services listed by chkconfig and reports those that should be up but are down?

I was unable to build the whole Mumble system on CentOS but it's available for Fedora Development. I just wanted the server part on my headless server, and a static build is available from the Mumble project on Sourceforge. So I grabbed the Mumble SRPM from Fedora Development, the static build from Sourceforge, and stripped the spec file down to the minimum needed to just install the

with ipv6, you just allow the specific ports destined to the specific local machine(s) in on your WAN side, they don't need translating. same sort of rule as if you had a internet-facing service running on the routing system On Tue, May 26, 2020 at 11:55 AM Kenneth Porter <shiva at sewingwitch.com> wrote: > I finally got an ISP connection with working IPv6 and now I need to add

I'm setting up certbot/letsencrypt to provide a certificate for dovecot and sendmail. Is it necessary to restart dovecot to load the new certificate, as shown in most examples I find in blogs? That seems rude to established connections. When does dovecot read the cert and key files? Once at startup or each time a connection requests SSL? Is there a preferred locking protocol when changing

Found it. It happens from the process buffer inside Lugaru Epsilon. I think ls thinks it's doing a DIRED output instead of a shell output. Now I need to figure out why it thinks that. This wasn't happening in CentOS 7.

I need to disable the spin-down on an external USB drive because it spins down spontaneously while in use. The drive forgets the spindown-disable state across power outage so I need to reissue the hdparm command with each boot or hotplug. Where should I put the hdparm command to do this?

I'm using LiveUSB-Creator to create a bootable USB drive from CentOS-6.0-i386-netinstall.iso, and it gives me an error at startup: vesamenu.c32: Not a COM32R image I can hit tab and select "linux" and then it loads vmlinux and the initrd, says "Ready", and then just hangs. I'm not sure what's supposed to happen next. "vesa" and "rescue" do

Can anyone recommend a mailing list or other resource for finding a home for old server hardware? I've got a growing bone pile of retired Dell and Supermicro rack servers. I've stripped the drives and memory but hate to see the other old parts go to waste, like old RAID controllers and other proprietary parts.
