Hello! We have central ldap for users, idmapd.conf configured on every machine and users' home folders on nfs, mounted by automount on several machines. After the last OS upgrade we notice that permissions on some files (not for all users) are corrupted: For example: -rw-r--r-- 1 4294967294 4294967294 45 Nov 11 21:20 hostlist drwx------ 2 4294967294 4294967294 4096 Jun 27 2012

I have installed CentOS 4.5 and 5 on 2 separate machines, and both have default installs of vim-enhanced on each of them. I noticed that I can get syntax highlighting as a regular user, sudo and as root in C4.5. In C5 I only get highlighting as a regular user. I diff'ed my /etc/vimrc files between each install there is no changes and neither root ~ has a .vimrc file. I had put "# vim:

I am working on setting up an NFS server, which will mainly serve files to web servers, and I want to setup two bonds. I have a question regarding *which* bonding mode to use. None of the documentation I have read suggests any mode is "better" than other with the exception of specific use cases (e.g. switch does not support 802.3ad, active-backup). Since my switch *does* support

Hello, I have a 2 bind nameservers on my network (both running C3.9). Over the last 3 weeks, I've seen a significant increase in the amount of denied cache queries to DNS service and I'm wondering if I should be worried or if there's something I can do to resolve or prevent this. I show millions of lines like: Oct 4 11:49:30 dns1 named[878]: client 68.13.16.20#53535: query (cache)

Hello, Over the weekend, I upgraded one of my servers that runs mysql and pdns to 5.3. Previous to the update I have not had an issue form this server. But since, I have had mysql die multiple times from oom-killer. $ uname -a Linux rack2a 2.6.18-128.1.6.el5 #1 SMP Wed Apr 1 09:10:25 EDT 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Unfortunately, the server has been rebooted by others before I have been

I'm trying to set the context on an nfs mounted /home. I believe exactly like in Redhat's Deployment Guide at http://www.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5.2/html/Deployment_Guide/ch45s02s03.html On my system running CentOS 5.2: $ ls -alZ /home drwxr-xr-x root root system_u:object_r:home_root_t . drwxr-xr-x root root system_u:object_r:root_t .. $ mount -t

Hi, About a week ago I upgraded our reasonably heavily loaded mail servers from a pretty recent courier version to dovecot-1.1rc10. IMAP performance on dovecot is amazing, however POP3 performance is worse than courier :-( I have uploaded some munin graphs taken today to http://linweb.atlas.pipex.net/dovecot/; the dovecot server is handling about 2000 pop logins/sec and 300 imap sessions (but

I am currently running K12LTSP on Centos 5, which is working well but without sound on most machines(ok all). So in order to remedy this and the cd-burning issue I have decided to try to install CentOS locally on one machine and then apply the personalizations via NFS. Steps: I editted the /etc/exports to export the /home dir as per the NFS howto and that seemed to work as the user homes were

G'day Further to a little discussion on #centos-social IRC, I'd like to put together a wiki page that describes the steps required to lock-down the ports used by NFS. I expect it'll be quite short, with details on which NFS related config files to edit and a short iptables excerpt that covers the relevant ports to allow. I'm thinking this could go under HowTos -> Security?

We have an NFS filer right now that we need to provide our windows users access too. For various reasons they won't use SFU, etc. In our legacy environment we have a file server that does NFS/CIFS natively. In our new environment not so much. We want to provide this service to our users and the solution proposed to me is to utilize SAMBA as the mechanism to do so. After doing exhaustive

I am running a Windows 2003 Server with Microsoft Services for UNIX (SFU) installed which is serving NFS shares to a Redhat Enterprise Workstation v5 Linux machine which is running Samba 3.0.33-3.7.el5. There is also a Solaris 5.6 workstation serving NFS shares. All of these are mounted on the RHEL machine and are visible to Samba. I can read and copy anything from any share using Windows

Hi all, i have a new setup where the htdocs directory for the webserver is located on a nfs share. Client has cachefilesd configured. Compared to the old setup (htdocs directory is on the local disk) the performance is not so gratifying. The disk is "faster" compared to the ethernet link but the cache should at least compensate this a bit. Do they exist more pitfalls for such

#define TL;DR Despite idmapd running, usernames/IDs don't get mapped properly. Looking for a workaround. #undef TL;DR I'm trying to get a new CentOS 7.1 workstation running, and having some problems with NFS filesystems. The server is a fully patched CentOS 6 server. On the NFS filesystem, there are two subdirectories owned by a regular user (joe). (There are actually more and by

I am setting up a file server with CentOS 7. I'm seeing performance which is considerably slower than a similar server running CentOS 6.6. A 3Gb directory can be copied to/from the CentOS 6.6 server in about 50 seconds. The same directory takes about 270 seconds to copy to/from the CentOS 7 system. I see the same performance difference with NFS mounted file systems or using scp, so it

Hi List, I want to store users Profile in a NFS mount, but the problem is after joining the client to the domain It's not creating the corresponding folder structure for roaming profiles, Here is my smb.conf under Debian [global] workgroup = LOCAL netbios name = LOCAL-DOMAIN server string = %h server (debian, DC) passdb backend = tdbsam security = user username map =

Hi, I have a question about computing shortest Euclidean distances between two data frames of spatial points... I have 2 dataframes (not yet converted to spatial class) >Sewers<-data.frame(x=c(10,20,35,50),y=c(100,150,200,300)) >transect <- data.frame(x=seq(from=0, to=50, by=1),y=seq(from=100, to=150, by=1)) I would like to be able to compute the shortest distance from the

Hi all, Setup: I'm running 2 machines (amd64, 16GB) with FreeBSD 9-STABLE (Mar 14 so far) acting as NFS servers. They each serve 3 zpools (holding a single zfs, hourly snapshots). The zpools each are 3-way mirrors of ggate devices, each 2 TB, so 2 TB per zpool. Compression is "on" (to save bandwith to the backend, compressratio around 1.05 to 1.15), atime is off. There is no

On a busy NFS server I've started receiving the following error messages and the system hangs with high load but no work being done. The system is a Dell R510 with 12 x 3TB drives in a RAID-50 configuration. The RAID-50 device is a full disk LVM (no partitions) and one large (36TB) data volume and the system is running CentOS 6.4 fully patched for OS and firmware. Anyone have any hints as
