I have a Centos 5 64-bit server that has ntp service enabled. Windows XP with SP2 cannot properly sync to it for time, but can communicate with it via samba, ssh, and anything else. I also disabled the Windows Firewall. The C5 system does not have any firewall enabled. Other C5 workstations can successfully sync to it via ntpdate. What else could cause the XP machine to not be able to

I found, under a 64-bit CentOS 5 workstation install, it is possible to modify /etc/inittab and add a couple of lines to prevent root from logging into the console. I found, under a 64-bit RHEL 5 server install, adding the same two lines completely breaks the OS, to the point that a reboot after the lines are added, the OS brings you to a fsck-like prompt, and other things break, too. I

I'm trying to install the latest version of putty GUI ssh client on my C5 box, but get the error: ./configure: line 2353: syntax error near unexpected token '1.2.0,' ./configure: "AM_PATH_GTK(1.2.0, all_targets="all-cli all-gtk", all_targets="all-cli)' What am I missing? I thought I had GTK fully installed. Maybe I don't? I tried a yum install

I have a few C5 machines on an isolated LAN that connect to a RHEL5 server via NFS and NIS for authentication. I discovered that one of the C5 workstations worked fine for NFS exporting, but refused to collaborate with the EL5 server for NIS user authentication. I had successfully connected other systems to this server without issue, but this machine was finicky. I had initially enabled

Hi, At present I'm setting up several CentOS (4 and 4.4) machines, and in the process of installing the several updates that are automatically mentioned by up2date as being available, I'm running into a package conflict. More particular, when trying to install several of the C compiler related packages (like gcc, cpp, etc.) I get the error message: "Test install failed

I've got a RHEL5 server acting as a NIS/NFS server, and connected one C5 machine just fine. I'm trying to connect another, and for the life of me, cannot figure out why NIS won't bind. NFS works fine. ypbind just hangs. I disabled SELinux and the firewall. I just cannot get it to bind. Ideas? Thanks. Scott

In an attempt to install bugzilla on a 64-bit C5 system, following http://www.nabble.com/bugzilla-3.0.x-installation-on-FC7-t4656333.html Most all modules from that page install fine, but GD install attemps keep crashing. What am I missing? Thanks. Scott

I had to reinstall C5 64-bit out-of-box on two machines. Before the reinstall, Matlab 2007a 64-bit worked fine. Now, I get "failed to start the desktop; failure loading desktop class". matlab -nojvm works fine. The reinstall was not an upgrade. I tested on two identical systems - one before I installed the NVIDIA drivers, and one after. No difference. I installed jre and jdk

I tried to boot from two different CentOS 5 DVDs, both pass the checksum test, and both give me the same error on a Dell laptop from either GUI or text install modes: invalid compressed format (err=2) VFS: Cannot open root device "<NULL>" or unknown-block(253,0) Please append a correct "root=" boot option Kernel panic... I did some google searching and learned other

I've been trying to follow samba, centos, ldap, and other documentation to try and get a CentOS 5 box to permit a user to log into an existing Windows 200x Active Directory domain without necessarily having the box as part of the domain. If it has to be part of the domain, that is fine. The user shall have no local account on the box - I want their active directory account to

I have a couple C5 systems I want to back up. My plan is to, one way or another, back them up to a C5 machine in my office. I have samba installed on the systems to back up, the machines are mounted on the system in my office, and a tape library hanging of the system in my office. I was hoping to perform a simple /sbin/dump of the remote systems. I put together a script for another

I have an Overland tape library connected, via SCSI card, to an out-of-box, full install of C5 install on an old PC. I have a script that uses tar to archive data to tape and mtx to change tapes. What I don't know, if possible, is to obtain the status of how much tape is left in the drive. If I get a write failure, I'd like to know if the tape is bad or has run out of space. I

I have C5 64-bit running on my laptop and am trying to get k3b 1.0.3 compiled from source. It keeps complaining about qt not being installed or available. I performed a yum install of everything qt, but it still complains. I've read some postings on various web pages about creating symlinks, but although tried, that still didn't fix any problems. What am I missing? Thhanks. Scott

hello, the last 3 times I installed C5, the MBR was unchanged and nothing was written into /boot/grub except splash.xbm.gz there were no stage* files, nor a menu.lst I know how to fix that. Would I have better luck using a partition mounted as /boot? Anyone succeded with Grub that way? I prefer not having to do surgery to get C5 to boot :) -- Mark New Packages for C5 ---------

I just performed a fresh install of 64-bit Centos 5 on a system, booted fine, then performed a yum update, or at least tried to. Files downloaded, and were about to install, when it complained that the gpg keys could not be found. I ran into this about a month ago and found a web page showing the path locally to where the keys live, and providing rpm --import /to/the/path. But of course now

Hi All, I install CentOS 4.4 without additional driver disk. When I partition the disk, I create nothing on the raid 5, and I just create " / " " /boot " and "swap" on the raid 1. And it works. When I create a mount point /storage on the raid 5 and create " / " " /boot " and "swap" on the raid 1. The error comes again, saying that

I'm able to get ./configure to get past the Qt error but now it complains that kdelibs isn't installed, or the version of qt doesn't match kdelibs. Everything was yum installed, and this is on CentOs 5 64-bit. Thanks for additional configuration help. Scott

I was just curious what the fundamental differences were between the 4.x and 5.x branches? Thanks. Scott

Hi, After reading https://llvm.org/docs/Vectorizers.html#vectorization-of-function-calls I decided to write the following C++ program: #include <cmath> using v4f32 = float __attribute__((__vector_size__(16))); v4f32 fct1(v4f32 x) { v4f32 y; y[0] = std::sin(x[0]); y[1] = std::sin(x[1]); y[2] = std::sin(x[2]); y[3] = std::sin(x[3]); return y; } v4f32 fct2(v4f32 x) { v4f32 y;
