How does one specify a particular version of a software package to yum to install? Is this even possible? What happens to superceded pacjkages in repos? Are they simple removed/discarded? yum install package-X.Y.Z-A.el5 ??? The reason I ask is if a yum update goes awry for some reason then how does one revert to the previous (working) version? I seem to recall that up2date had a feature

I have a remote CentOS-5.3 installation that shares traffic with another enterprise. I want to record and measure the actual network traffic that comes into and goes out of that host's net i/f on a monthly basis for billing verification purposes. Does CentOS have a software package to accomplish this? I have run across references to a package called vnstat as a possible answer to my

Firstly, let me thank all of the individuals who assisted me in various matters regarding find, tar and ssh last week. Your contributions were truly invaluable and I learned a great deal thereby. The reason for that brief flurry of activity was an administrative and technical move to store-to-disc from store-to-tape for our server backups. We presently use a mix of store to disc on

We have a very old MS-Windows domain running on a Win2K advanced server. After the most recent update to Samba it appears that we can no longer connect to shares on that system from our CentOS-6.4 workstations. Is this a known problem or configuration issue that we need to address through local modifications or do we have to roll back to the older version to regain connectivity? Regards, --

I'm having trouble changing the machine name programmatically on Samba 4 (running under systemd). There's no "netbios name" option in smb.conf, so I'm relying on it using the hostname. Here's what I'm doing: 1) Call sethostname() with the new name. 2) Write the same name into /etc/hostname, to make it nonvolatile. 3) Read a decimal number from /var/run/smbd.pid.

I'm working on a couple of Yocto Project based embedded projects, one using a Gumstix Overo board and the other using an Intel Atom motherboard. Both need a simple Samba server, which isn't included in the standard build. The only existing Yocto-compatible recipe for Samba is an OpenEmbedded one for version 3.6.8. I was quite surprised to find that adding Samba almost tripled the size of

I am setting up a small CentOS-5.3 host to act as a router. I have the device configured and working. What I am trying to accomplish now is configuring the firewall so as to protect both the router and the LAN. The host configuration has the WAN attached to eth0 (IP_ADDR = A) and the LAN attached to eth1 (IP_ADDR = B). The default gateway for B is A. The default gateway for B is B-1. There

Dear R Development Team, Using Thomas Baier's R Com Server -- or a dll I am building which supports an evaluate function that is based on Baier's function R_Proxy_evaluate contained in proxy_impl.c -- when I issue an invalid command to R such as "plo(x)" the program crashes.

I am writing a script to automatically connect via ftp from a CentOS-5 host to one of our older (non-*nix OS) systems. The only common protocol that the remote host supports is ftp. What I want to do is to capture the initial response that comes back from that host before the user credentials are passed and log this information. I cannot seem to hit upon the right set of redirects to make this
