Hi, I noticed that some of my ext3 partitions have a lost+found directory and some do not. Which is correct? mke2fs -j makes the lost+found but after a fresh install of 7.2 there are no lost+found on partitions that were formatted. I want to make them all the same but I am not sure which is correct. I do not plan on going back to ext2 but......... -- ......Tom Dysfunction The Only Consistent

Well I thought someone might be interested in this. I have a Compaq server with a cpq array in a raid 5 configuration with some bog standard video card no sound card, NO X installed, no applications/modules not included with the distro, and 256 megs of memory. I upgraded it (yes I know not supported but...) from Roswell to 7.2 in the middle of last week and installed all applicable errata

Hi all, I am in the process of setting up a test network to test samba as a DC with the acct information stored in LDAP (2.2.3a). The ultimate goal is to replace the nt4 (P,B)DC we have on the network now with a samba DC. I have read about the uid gid scheme of uid *2+1000 = rid but I am a little confused. If I use pwdump to dump the existing sam database I get numbers like 1036 for the

I am quite new to Linux and have moved (almost) from a windoze NT4 environment. My present configuration is running SuSE V 8.0 with KDE3.0.5 desktop on two machines, connecting with Samba to an NT4 PC, and an occasional laptop or other PC that connects locally to the network. After a deal of searching, researching, and seeking advice I have decided to use Shorewall as my firewall.

Hi, I am trying to get quota working properly on dovecot 1.2.3 with postfix admin, amavisd-new, mysql, and postfix. So far I can see the db getting updated when messages are added and deleted from the mailbox. The problem I am having is that I have imported a bunch of messages from the old mail server that was running uw-imap and mbox to the doevcot machine using maildir++. As a result the

Hi, Does anyone have a pointer to correct documantation for generating and installing a self signed ssl cert for use on httpd on a C-5 machine? The docs say to use genkey but AFAIK upstream rm'd crypto-utils from the distro and as such it is not available. I tried generating the cert on a C-4 machine using genkey and installing on the C-5 machine but I get the following error when I try to

Hi all, I am trying to setup a samba pdc using the "making users happy" example from Samba-by-Example. Everything seems to check out fine except that I cannot get wbinfo -u to work. When I do wbinfo -g I get a list of the groups. If I do wbinfo -u I get the following: (pocono pts4) # wbinfo -u Error looking up domain users (pocono pts4) # I tried turning up the logging for samba but

Hi, Does anyone know how I can find out if an ibm serveraid 8k sas storage controller (zero channel RAID) is a real hardware RAID controller and supported in the standard CentOs kernel or is it a fake raid controller. I am trying to decide if I should get the serveraid controller or go get a 3ware controller. Regards, -- Tom Diehl tdiehl at rogueind.com Spamtrap address mtd123 at

Hi, I have a machine running several domU's. It has an LV that is currently mounted on dom0, that I would like to access from one of the domU's. If I umount the LV and remove it from the fstab on the dom0, is there a way I can mount it in one of the domU's? If there is a doc that describes how to do this, a pointer would be appreciated. I have tried google but so far no joy.

Hi, I have a centos 4.4 box running Apache serving up web pages. One of my customers has a marketing firm that once a week pulls all of the content so that they can do their thing. When they do this the box stops serving web pages. The load goes to 0.0 and top shows almost no memory free. The box does not swap nor do I get OOM to kick in. Normally the box has about 20-30 httpd processes running

Hello, I recently upgraded our file server from RedHat6.2 to RedHat7.2. This upgraded our (working) Samba 2.0.x to 2.2.1a-4. Now, the windows98 machines on the network can print without problems. The 2K/NT4 machines cannot print, but they experience no problems with file sharing operations (writeable /home/$USER). The 2K/NT4 machines had been printing fine prior to the upgrade. I won't

Our CEO, Dr. Dan Steinberg, is planning to visit Europe in May. He would like the opportunity to introduce statisticians (and statistically minded people) to data mining, data mining applications and to forefront data mining tools. Our algorithms are probably familiar to many statisticians (CART, MARS, MART, TreeNet and RandomForests), although it isn't necessary to be a statistician to

I am having a problem with the auto running of the samba daemons in red hat I got the smb script from the site and place it as /etc/rc.c/init.d/smb Then I set up symbolic links in the places it told me. I used lm -s ..... for the links I went into the place where one link was and I use colors to signify what something is. All of the links are in cyan except for the one created which is white

Does anyone know how to tell if a machine is VT-x or AMD-V capable before I buy it? I have read some mailing list stuff that even if the processor is capable, sometimes it is disabled in the BIOS, with no way to enable it. I think HP was/is doing this. Can anyone shed some light on the current situation wrt this? Regards, -- Tom Diehl tdiehl at rogueind.com Spamtrap address mtd123 at

Hi, I have a EPIA mini-itx board that I have been running Fedora 4 on. I want to install CentOS 4.4 on it since FC4 is no longer supported. The install goes fine but when I reboot the machine after the install I get errors like the following: hda:<4>hda: dma_timer_Expiry : dma status == 0x21 There are other errors about not being able to access the disk and eventually the kernel panics.

Hi, Does anyone know where I can get centos-release-5-4.el5.centos.1.src.rpm? I have looked on several mirrors and that one seems to be MIA. Even Google does not seem to know where it is. I need it so I can rebuild it with my local yum repos in it. Regards, -- Tom Diehl tdiehl at rogueind.com Spamtrap address mtd123 at rogueind.com

Hi, I have a c5 machine with a 3ware controller in it that I am using for iscsi targets. The iscsi target is built on lvm. The client then sees it as /dev/sdb1. If I put a gpt partition on it and try to shrink it I loose the partition table. If I expand it gparted complains with the following warning: "Not all of the space available to /dev/sda appears to be used, you can fix the GPT to use

Hi, I upgraded a working centos5.5 with squid using ntlm auth to centos 5.6 today. After doing so squid failed to authenticate. Downgrading samba3x to samba3x-3.3.8-0.52.el5_5.2 got things working again. In the squid config I have, auth_param ntlm program /usr/bin/ntlm_auth --helper-protocol=squid-2.5-ntlmssp in the squid config and this was working until the upgrade. testparm shows no errors

Hi there, I have installed samba-2.2.2 on Redhat linux 7.0 . I have setup the whole server properly and have run the ./configure, make and make install commands successfully.

The testparm on the conf file shows no errors. i have checked the /etc/services file for the netbios services and they are all done properly
