Hi, The following is with the latest (and last) puppetmaster/puppetd on FC5. I use puppet to configure a server and several workstations on my home network. This includes managing several files of >5Mbyte on the workstations. I have had problems recently with timeout errors on some of these files. These errors seem consistent for a particular puppet setup/configuration, but can change when

Hi all, Just a quick heads up that I made the plunge into F7 this week. R version 2.5.0 Patched (2007-06-05 r41831) compiles and passes make check-all. F7 is using: [marcs at Bellerophon ~]$ gcc --version gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20070502 (Red Hat 4.1.2-12) Some quick F7 notes: 1. Do a clean install rather than an 'in place' upgrade from FC6 or a prior version. There are a lot of changes,

hello, I'm going to try this question again. The first time I botched it and the answers I got were useless. I want to use rpmdevtools to help with some packaging chores. There is no C5 version that I can find. I've located an SRC RPM in a location that is known to be C5 compatible. There are 2 versions of rpmdevtools:

Hi, I''ve been using puppet to manage a small Linux network fairly successfully for a while now - thanks. I''ve hit a spot of bother in managing some files, though. There are a number of folders in /usr/local that I want to manage efficiently using puppet - for example /usr/local/share/templates. I want to copy the contents of a number of source folders on the puppet fileserver

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 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 would find it very useful if puppet were able to replicate passwords for specified users from a master PC (the puppetmaster would do me fine, though I suspect this may not suit everyone). That would make changing passwords on my small Linux network a little easier. cheers John Dubery

I'm trying to use menu.c32 to boot different kickstart files. The problem I have is regardless of what menu item I select, it always uses the client.cfg (default entry) even if I select one of the others. Any ideas.

I'm trying to use menu.c32 to boot different kickstart files. The problem I have is regardless of what menu item I select, it always uses the client.cfg (default entry) even if I select one of the others. I have removed the DEFAULT from that entry and it still always uses the ckient.cfg kickstart file Any ideas. Thanks, Mike Jarka default menu.c32 prompt 0 timeout 300 MENU TITLE PXE Boot

Hi, I'm quite surprised at anaconda-runtime dependencies. I've got C5 console only system and yum install anaconda-runtime gives this :o) David ============================================================================= Package Arch Version Repository Size ============================================================================= Installing:

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

Just upgraded to 5.4 yesterday morning. (Kudos to those who did that!) That's probably irrelevant to this problem: "yum install mplayer" fails.

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

Hi, I have got a curious issue with an R package which uses zlib, against the official binary here: http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/redhat/el4/i386/R-2.4.1-1.rh4AS.i386.rpm on a Redhat EL4 i686 system. The problem is that at the end of reading a gzip'ed file within my C code, gzgetc() returns -1 (no more to read or error) but gzeof() doesn't return true. Now one can probably jump to

Greetings! I am currently building a PXE distro server for a company that I'm contracting for, but I'm having some problems. Here's the scoop: Some of the clients I want to install on are Angstrom blades with Intel e1000 NICs. Using the pxelinux.0 file on the FC6 distro, I can install FC6 just fine. However, FC4 bombs. The system pulls it's DHCP address just fine, and then

Greetings, I have a newly loaded WinXP/SP2 laptop connecting to a FC6 samba share. The first 2-3 accesses to the share work fine but then it goes south. The access times are extremely long. I did a tcpdump on the FC6 box and see constant samba traffic between the laptop and the server when there is no actively on the laptop. I have a different laptop running WinXP which doesn't behave in

Greetings, I'm a Fedora user likely going to switch to CentOS in the next few days. I'm wondering if anyone has some heads up advice for me? I am very familiar with FC6 and before so I anticipate few problems I haven't already seen (and know were fixed). The main reason for the move is so I don't have to re-install so frequently and hopefully not have to deal with so many
