similar to: Yum FTP concurrency

I've encountered an odd error state that I haven't been able to resolve yet. I have a customer that, for what ever reason, wants to use active mode occasionally for FTP xfers. What they have noticed, is that after you switch to active, and issue a command (they do 'ls', I've done other things like 'put' and 'get', etc.), the connection hangs. If you wait a

Greetings On centos 5, if I ssh in as a regular non-superuser account and go to the sbin dir to issue a reboot command, it wont do it as says you must be superuser If you are on the console logged in as a non-superuser account and do the same thing, it will reboot. Is this a feature, or a bug? - rh

is there a utility or SOME method to determine which /dev/videoX (like /dev/video0 or /dev/video1) is being used by a device???

Thanks, Jerry

I am running CentOS 4.7. I have a USB flash (thumb) drive that has a bunch of files placed there by Windows. I plugged it into the CentOS machine, and when I listed the files under "/media/usb-name", there was nothing there. I created an empty file: touch blah and it showed up when I did list it. I noticed, checking dmesg that it was attached to /dev/sdb. So I did a quick

I'm running CentOS 5.2 x x86_64. I did an lvextend of a logical volume, and proceeded to run one of the ext2 utilities (e.g. ext2online, ext2resize) and found to my surprise that it wasn't on there. So I started googling around, and as far as I can see, though I'm not sure, they're supposed to be a part of the e2fsprogs package. Well, it's installed on the system, at least

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 have a system with Fedora installed on the partition with label "/". Can I install CentOS on a new empty partition (/dev/cciss/c0d3p1), or do I need to remove the "/" label on the Fedora partition and change Fedora's fstab to mount by physical partition? I'd like to keep Fedora as a fall-back OS until I have CentOS completely up and working. My Fedora fstab:

I have set up entries in /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny as follows: /etc/hosts.allow sendmail : 10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 sendmail : LOCAL /etc/hosts.deny sendmail : ALL When I try to connect to port 25 from an Internet host via telnet, the server still responds as usual.

Hello, What is the best way to get the xen enabled CentOS 5.2 vmlinuz and initrd images for use as a guest domain (domU) on Ubuntu host domain (dom0). Is there a site where these are available? I am hoping that I could use the vmlinuz from the latest kernel rpm, if I go that route, how could I generate the initrd image given that my host is Ubuntu? These are for use with post install of domU,

Hi, I've just installed xulrunner-devel from yum, but there are following header files cannot be found in xulrunner-sdk-1.9/sdk/include: mozilla-config.h mozilla-config32.h prtypes.h The include/xulrunner-sdk-1.9 constains those above header files, I did link to them, but xulrunner-sdk-1.9/system_wrappers/prtypes.h has a problem as well: #pragma GCC system_header #pragma GCC visibility

Hi, How do you get yum/http download statistics of files (rpms) that live on a CentOS5.1 box with Apache? Is it just a matter of installing some weblog analyzer software or is some other magic needed? Thanks! Patrick

Where might I find an rpm for Centos?

Given that I hardly ever use the CD-ROM drive, it makes no sense to have hal constantly polling it for new media. How can I disable this polling in CentOS 5.1? Thanks.

Unless I've missed something (which is possible) there hasn't been any "public progress announcements" regarding rpmfusion in the past several weeks. Is there anything new to report? My ulterior motive is that I would love to have the convenience of a one-stop rpm shop for Centos/RHEL and Fedora, and it's my understanding that's what rpmfusion is intended to be... --

I want to put the document root for an application on a separate paritition that has more space. When I try to configure this I can't access the files in the new location. I've got the SELinux attributes set on the directory and its files, so I'm thinking it's something about the parent path that SELinux doesn't like, but I don't know where that's handled. My
