Hello listmates, I am wondering if there is a set of scripts/utilities for automatically starting and running headless (no X11) VM's using VirtualBox omn a CentOS 6 server. VNC/RDP access to the VM's would be fine. Any help much appreciated. Cheers, Boris.

Hello listmates, I can't find the 32 bit version of Centos 7. Would it be because I am not looking in the right place or does it not exist at all? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, So, what's the story with CentOS 6? It is supposed to be out by now, or coming out soon, or so I heard - but yet there seems to be no mention of it at http://centos.org/ . Does anybody know what's up with that? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, I have discovered a very strange SFTP problem which I can not connect to anything but NIS thus far. See here: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-server-73/sftp-seems-to-fail-for-nis-accounts-under-openssh-5-x-816020/ http://readlist.com/lists/suse.com/suse-linux-e/38/193419.html Hence the question: is NIS (YP) still in use much anywhere for authentication? Thanks.

Hello listmates, It appears that on the second machine in a row (CentOS 5.5, 32 bit) if I am trying to place a VM into a file located in XFS the machine just hangs (the host machine, not the VM). If I place the VM in a raw device or in a file in ext3 all seems to work perfectly. Is that just a coincidence or is there a reason for this madness? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, It's been a few years since I've set up a router... and for some reason I seem to be getting hung up on this one. Does anybody have a sample iptables config file that would incorporate NAT and forwarding for a simple router? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, Is there a good manual anywhere on how to boot a dual-boot Linux/Windows machine into Linux and launch the Windows as a XEN virtual machine? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, I have a machine that is running Centos 5.8. I am trying to install MediaWiki 1.19 on it and that requires PHP 5.3 which I got from the combination of the Remi and EPEL repositories. But now I can not fet a working PHP MySQL connector for it. Does anybody know where I can find one? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, If I have a regular, ACL-capable filesystem on Linux (say, ext4 or xfs) is there a way for me to establish the following: 1) There is a directory, say, /home/joe . It is owned by user joe . No one but joe (and root, of course) can read or write anything in this directory. 2) No one can change permissions on that directory, not even joe. In other words, in joe all of a sudden

I have a user with C5.4 64-bit, fully updated, performed a yum install glade, it claimed to have installed everything, but we cannot get it to run. Neither whereis nor locate revleal an executable. We obtained the latest glade source from the project's web site, attempted to configure it, until it complained of needed dependencies, namely gtk+ (newer than what was on the system). So I got

Hello listmates, We are currently running NIS for authentication but would like to migrate to LDAP. Thing is, though, that some of the machines that authenticate via NIS are so old I'd rather not even touch them. Hence the question - is there a good way to have an NIS server for user authentication that is a mirror image of an LDAP server, with a proviso that an update introduced there is

Hi, I'm running debian - upgraded fully to potato at the start of the freeze and added latest libgnome-dev before configuring. I tried compiling with gnome support with /usr/local/R/R-0.99.0/configure --with-gnome and got the following output: checking for gnome-config... /usr/bin/gnome-config checking if /usr/bin/gnome-config works... yes checking for orbit-config...

Hello listmates, I have two seemingly identical (in this reglard, at least) machine - both of them are running CentOS 6.2 with bind (bind-chroot) installed. I used webmin to edit the DNS configuration. One one of them it seems to work fine, on the other I get messages akin to the following: Failed to create master zone : Failed to replace /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf with

Hello listmates, Somehow or other my DNS services that are part of the ndjbdns-1.06-1.el7.x86_64 package would not start properly at startup. When I then start them up using systemctl: systemctl start dnscache systemctl start tinydns they start just fine. >From the log I got the following for tinydns: Oct 24 15:01:43 ns99 tinydns[1867]: tinydns: version 1.06: starting: Oct-24 2014 15:01:43

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi everyone, I am starting to create a tinc gui. Attached is a mock glade interface. Please let me know what you think. I also would like it to reside in the notification area and when it does connect to a network, or another event occurs, it will use a notification balloon to let the user know about the status. Any suggestions and comments are

Hello listmates, Yes, I know - Macs and NFS do not co-exist easily. Still I've got to make this happen somehow. In short - we have two CentOS-based NFS servers. They work fine with a variety of Linux machines but when I try to mount them from a Mac OS X 10.5 or 10.6 machine I get nowhere. I.e., the Mac does not complain yet reads nothing over the NFS. Has anybody seen this? Does anybody

Hi, The Gnome version now compiles, and it should also be working (at least as much as it ever has). I've changed Makefile.in to the new system, which is very cool. What I want to work on now is: - Graphics. I want to move to the Gnome canvas for this, which should be reasonably easy. This will give us rotated text (which I never got going properly before) and the option for

Hello Everyone, While I poke today on totem, anjuta crash on open preferences.ui. glade = 3.15 I downgrade glade to version 3.14.3. Now it works as expected. http://centos.cms4all.org/centos/7/other/SRPMS/glade-3.14.3-6.el7.centos.src.rpm fixed to compile man pages. Sincerely Andy

Hello listmates, I would like to build a 12-15 TB RAID 5 data server to run under ContOS. Any recommendations as far as hardware, configuration, etc? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, I have encountered a rather peculiar situation. We have a Centos 6 VM (64 bit) running on a VMware vSphere 5.5 server. It was running just fine until one day I decided to reboot it and it just would not boot up. Effectively, dracut failed to initialize the LVM, much like under the scenario described here:
