Hello Group, I am installed some application running on top of Centos 5.2 OS and these applications are running fine. However, we are thinking of upgrading our 5.2 Centos to 5.7 (hot upgrade). That is we want to upgrade from 5.2 Centos to 5.7 Centos and not disturb the applications. Is it possible? Could someone please help. -- Thanks Nagrik

Hello Openssh group, I have downloaded the .tar.gz file from openssh site openssh-5.8p2. I need to build this src into an rpm. I don?t see any makefile utility in the main directory. Although there are bunch of .c and .h files. And I see Makefile in other directory, but none seems to build the openssh-5.8p2 target. Could someone guide me as to how to build it from scratch. I am beginner to

Hello Group, The latest rpm in openssh is 5.8, however, the corresponding latest rpm available in centos 5.7 is only openssh-4.3p2-72.el5_6.3.x86_64.rpm and in 6.0 centos is openssh-5.3p1-20.el6.x86_64.rpm I have following questions. 1.

Hello Team, We ship our own software own top of Centos 5.2 OS and install other applications and rpms on top of rpms available in 5.2 Centos. We are in the process of upgrading to a later version of openssh (5.8 version of openssh is already available), however the latest src.rpm version of openssh available on Centos site is still

Hello Group, I am having some problems in my /etd/hosts file, where unwanted matching appears between IP addresses and hostnames. Could someone please tell me, which is centos rpm, which configures /etc/hosts file. Thanks in advance nagrik

Hello Group, I am building a company application based on Centos 5.7 OS. The application was working earlier and creating right partitions both for hardware as well as VM. But since we introduced Centos 5.7 OS and start building application with 5.7 anaconda the hardware partitions are duplicate of VM partitions *while creating hardware partition my code looks like.* cat >

Hello Group, I downloaded openssh-4.3p2-72.el5_6.3.src.rpm built the rpm and installed it. However, sshd daemon does not start when the host comes up. When I try to start it manually it says *Starting sshd: Auto configuration failed 29545 Error: 0E065068 configuration file routine: STR_COPY: variable has no value: conf_def.c:629: line 233 * and when I try to login from outside it fails.

Hello Group, I created a VM with 5.7 Centos DVD-1. My task is to compile openssh5.8p2 (src.rpm downloaded from openssh site.) on the system. It gave some errors about some buildrequires rpm not found. I took care of them. Now it is complaining about > [root at akjain-centos5 SPECS]# rpmbuild -bb openssh.spec > error: Failed build dependencies: > /usr/include/X11/Xlib.h is

I love Centos. Have in on my data centre servers, my home servers, my laptop and my netbook. Yes there are serious and continuing security concerns relating to Gnome and KDE but they are not Centos. Currently running 5.6 and would like a two set DVD of that version. However none of the mirrors offer pure DVDs only Torrent versions which involve the possibility of bits being tampered with and

Should the wiki have a Tips and Tricks page for creating a ISO file from a CD or DVD? I realize this information is everywhere. Including http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/Installation_Guide-en-US/s1-steps-network-installs-ppc.html I don't, however, find it on the wiki... Is it within the scope of the wiki project to have it somewhere?

I have the two DVD isos for CentOS 6.5 mounted as loopback, on the mount points /centos6 and /centos6a, and am trying to use them for PXE/KS installation. The problem I have is that the packages in /centos6a/Packages are not found by the installer. The host is a CentOS 5 system. Is there a way for me to overlay the second DVD on the first without having to copy all the packages from both isos

My backup script split filesystem dumps to files with size of 4,37 GB (4 588 544 kB). It's just an optimal size to fill out DVDs. At this moment I have to burn them from windows via smb-link becuase I didn't manage to do this task from FreeBSD console due to 2GB/4GB filesize restrictions (growisofs). I'm using freeware CDBurnerXP to burn my backups (ISO9660/UDF/Joliet), and they

I have a couple of DVD drives (one drive, one burner) that used to play DVDs quite fine from 5.3 to somewhere in the 6.x branch. Nowadays I have to send them to PIO4 to play DVDs, because they'll just throw DMA not aligned errors around in UDMA33 or WDMA2 mode. Should someone be interested in this I'm willing to supply all necessary information, such as the exact drives, firmware

Hi, Sorry if this is only half-CentOS-related. In my office, I'm running CentOS on all my systems (server, workstation, laptop, sandbox PCs). A colleague brought me her MacBook Pro to upgrade it from OS X 10.5.7 to 10.11.6. I downloaded the 5.8 GB dmg file and now I wonder how to create a bootable DVD with this using only Linux tools. 1. Can I simply burn this as a data DVD with K3B? 2.

Sorin, authoring a movie usually refers to actually creating a disc (e.g. DVD/Blu-Ray with chapter marks and what not). It's the step that comes after you've shot and edited the movie, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD_authoring. As far as I know K3B, Bombone DVD and DeVede are capable of authoring DVDs. K3B (version dependent) should even be able to create Blu-Ray discs so that they

Hey guys, Thanks a lot for the CentOS 6 distro. I am having trouble burning the i386 dvds. I tried on a RHEL 6 deskop and also a CentOS 5 laptop. The command I am running on both systems is this: growisofs -dvd-compat -speed=4 -Z /dev/sr0=/home/gsgatlin/CentOS-6.0-i386-bin-DVD/CentOS-6.0-i386-bin-DVD.iso The error I am seeing is: :-( /dev/sr0: 2295104 blocks are free, 2297586 to be written!

I have an NEC DVD-RW ND2500A (that's not the label I bought it under, but that's what it really is.) It's supposed to read/write CDs, DVDs, DVD+Rs, and DVD-Rs. I'm basically dual booting between XP and CentOS 4. Following the recipe in "The Linux Cookbook", I tried to copy a DVD using: dd if=/dev/hdd of=/tmp/diskfile.iso then cdrecord dev=/dev/hdd fs=32m

Hello out there! Been around the block trying to get DVD support for Totem, but I keep running into dead ends everywhere I go. Looking for CentOS 5.1-compatible xine and xine-lib packages as that seems to be the answer, but the only ones I find (like on DAG) seem to be just dead links or I get a message that the mirrors are unavailable when I try to run the rpm. Can anyone provide a link
