As I mentioned on this list before, I'm switching from Fedora 6 to Centos 5. I'm setting up the mail server and on Fedora I used the milter rpms for greylisting, spamassassin, mimedefant etc. However I don't see that those are included with Centos? Is this true, or do my yum repositories need to be changed to look in an 'extras' location? Or is there some other source

I have several shell scripts to manage user accounts on a server. I've been using a file with the usernames of peoples accounts that any script needs to process. I had a thought that I can and should be setting up groups and adding user accounts to those groups so I don't have to maintain a set of files with the user accounts. So essentially, I am looking for a (simple) shell

So I setup ssh on a server so I could do some work from home and I think the second I opened it every sorry monkey from around the world has been trying every account name imaginable to get into the system. What's a good way to deal with this?

I'm finishing converting from POP to IMAP and I'm seeing some potentially powerful uses, but I wonder if my ideas aren't more abuses. I want to create 'multi-user' accounts that allow groups of users to archive and share emails with each other. For example, in the case of a sales department, emails from customers may have requests for new product features. I could create

I'm setting up multiple systems and ideally I want the same package configuration on all of them. So I'm going through yum and rpm queries manually to try and get this done. There must be a better way. Is there a way to use yum or rpm to configure multiple systems with the same packages? If yum or rpm has something native built into it to do this, that would be great. If

K I finally got HL to start correctly by not using my installed win98 as base. Now when I try to join a game in Counterstrike I get an "selected opengl mode not supported by your hardware" error from HL. This is only the case when I select the 3DfxMiniGL Driver (as I got a voodoo3). With Default opengl driver it works, but i get 4 fps. With Softwaremode I get 15fps but thats both

All, I have upgraded by home machine from Fedora Core 5 (FC5) to the recent FC6 and am struggling to build Zaptel-1.2.10 and Asterisk-1.2.13 on the box... which is an Intep P4 2.8GHz HT processor box with 845 chipset, hence the kernel installed is 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6-i686 so we hve this: [root@gate zaptel-1.2.10]# uname -a Linux gate.tubby.org 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 #1 SMP Mon Oct 16 14:54:20

I keep running into the dead end that it can't find config.h in the source tree. It looks like newer kernels don't use it anymore. Someone ran into this awhile back when compiling 1.2 and it looks as though the issue was never resolved. Any ideas? Last time I tried this, I was on fedora core 5 64bit and all went well. It's not working on this newer setup Any ideas on what I can do

I tried to test Asterisk 1.4 on FC6 x86_64. I have it working on FC5 x86_64 very good, but since FC keeps updating, I tried to follow newer kernel versions. I can't pass the zaptel compilation. Everything is OK, but when I finished, and tried to load it, allways got module not found when I run modprobe zaptel, and modprobe ztdummy. I already tried to modify is with the sed 1 option but

Hi, I downloaded XEN 3.1 source code on a fedora 6 machine. I did # make world # make install It did not give me an error then when I restarted the machine the Grub did not have 2 options. It had only one option that was the kernel. On loading the OS, when i gave # xend it gives the following errors: [root@localhost sbin]# xend ERROR Internal error: Could not obtain handle on privileged command

I have a 3dfx voodoo3 card, in X4.0.2 using the DRI opengl libs from dri.sourceforge.net my problem is, although 3d acceleration works for me under wine, all opengl games are horribly flickery and some of the surfaces are transparent because of this has anyone else experienced this or know how to fix it?

Is CentOS 5.5 Flex the same as Fedora 6 flex ? Have you seen the package name ? Find this because I need to update my CentOS 5.5 flex for compiling new wine 1.2....but that is another problem.... For example: http://mirrors.hpcf.upr.edu/ftp/pub/Mirrors/CentOS/5.5/os/x86_64/CentOS/flex-2.5.4a-41._*fc6*_.x86_64.rpm

Greetings all, I'm a new user of Dovecot and want to say thanks for the great software. I am having a problem at the moment. I run a heterogeneous network with windows and Mac clients logging into a Fedora Linux 2 box running sendmail and previously UW-IMAP, but now Dovecot. I am using strictly pop3, plain authentication with mbox format. Every computer in the network is working fine with

Which Fedora release is the CentOS 5.x kernel based on? I am wanting to know which Fedora rpm's I would have the best luck installing on CentOS 5.x 64 bit. Matt

Finally moved my home desktop from Fedora to CentOS. My spouse was unhappy with me upgrading from F9-->F10-->f11 etc and wanted something more stable. I built a second machine which is now running in parallel to the old F11 desktop. I moved my data (mail and files) from the F11 box to the CentOS 5.4 box. I used tar to move everything. Mail and files transferred A-OK...but the Evolution

Hi, I''m still using Fedora Core 5 (and expect to for the next couple of months). Which is the nest method for updating my puppet/puppetmaster setup. Using FC6 or Fedora 7 RPMs seems likely, but are there any gotchas that make a different mechanism better. cheers John Dubery
