I have a fairly involved root cron task that I moved verbatim from another server. On the original server, this task ran without problem. On the new server, when this task runs via cron, which I confirm is happening by looking in the cron log, no files are transferred and no error is reported. However, if I copy cron command from roots crontab and paste it into a terminal session on the new

We encountered a problem with respect to KVM virtual host restore and NTP. Specifically, our VM test host was shutdown by an extended power outage and when power returned all of the restored guests were immediately shutdown by ntp because the time differential between the restored systems and that of the ntpd sync servers exceeded the panic threshold. This is not an acceptable situation so in the

Over the weekend one of our servers at a remote location was hammered by an IP originating in mainland China. This attack was only noteworthy in that it attempted to connect to our pop3 service. We have long had an IP throttle on ssh connections to discourage this sort of thing. But I had not considered the possibility that other services were equally at risk. Researching this on the web does

CentOS-6.5 (FreePBX-2.6) Asterisk-11.14.2 (FreePBX) snom870-SIP 8.7.3.25.5 I am having a very difficult time attempting to get TLS and SRTP working with Asterisk and anything else. At the moment I am trying to get TLS functioning with our Snom870 desk-sets. And I am not having much luck. Since this is an extraordinarily (to me) Byzantine environemnt I am going to ask if any of you have gotten

This morning I applied the 13 or so new updates to my servers. On one of them the ssh service and clients stopped working immediately after the update. I restarted the server in anticipation that there might be some instability introduced by updating on a system with active ssh connections. However, this has not cleared the problem. The packages in question are: openssh.i386

I am attempting to get a script borrowed from DJB to work on my CentOS-6.6 box. Simplified it looks like this: tcpdump -l -n -e port 53 \ | awk '{if ($14 ~ /A.*?/) print $15}' \ | while read domain ; do echo $domain ; done ; The sticking point is the 'while read' construct. Run just as 'tcpdum | awk' I get this: english.stackexchange.com. www.urbandictionary.com.

I am working on the Agile programming tutorial and trying out some ruby code. Can someone tell me why the following works: <h1>Display Cart</h1> <p> Your cart currently holds <%= @items.size %> <%= @items.size == 1 ? "item" : "items" %>. </p> while this does not? <h1>Display Cart</h1> <p> Your cart currently

I am trying to package ruby-1.8.6 for CentOS-4.5 and I would like to take a look at the spec files used for ruby-1.8.1 that ships with CentOS. Is there any place that I can see these or could someone do me the kindness of sending them to me? I am also confused as to how one breaks out the component parts of a build into separate rpm packages. The source distribution from ruby-lang.org seemingly

In the agile/rails tutorial book the following construct is added to products.rb. def self.salable_items find( :all, :conditions => "date_available <= now()", :order => "date_available desc") end Now, I wish to extend :conditions => to exclude products that have a nil value for the price. I have tried different syntax

I am in the middle of a rather confusing situation. At the moment I am unable to shutdown a KVM guest machine. Nor am I presently able to open a virt-manager session on the host. I am not exactly sure what has happened but the problem with the vm guest is that issuing a "virsh shutdown 1" from the root console has no effect. # virsh list Id Name State

HW = HPQ DC7700 DuoCore 1.8GHz, 4 x 2GB RAM, 1 x 1TB SATA (AHCI) OS = CentOS-5.2 ix_64 (xen) I am experimenting with Xen and with virtual machines in general for the first time. In consequence I have many questions. However, the one that I wish answered at the moment is simple: Given a DVD containing the CentOS-5.2_Final (i386) distribution mounted at /media/CentOS_5.2_Final on Dom0, what

I had cause to install the Skype for Linux package from the NUX repo. I discover that this package is configured to automatically start Skype whenever one logs on to the Gnome desktop. This behaviour I do not wish. However, there seems to be no option in Skype to turn that 'feature' off. Is there any way to disable this in Gnome or elsewhere? I will be removing Skype shortly when the

We use a dual homed CentOS-6.3 host for our Internet gateway router.

CentOS-6.2 We moved a cron job from a CentOS-5.7 host to a CentOS-6.2 host. The MAILTO variable is set to support at harte-lyne.ca in both instances. On the CentOS-6 host instead of receiving the mail with the output we see this in /var/log/cron instead: Mar 12 14:49:01 inet09 CROND[6639]: (cron theheart) UNSAFE (support at harte-lyne.ca ) The CentOS-5 host uses Sendmail as the MTA, the
