Hi All, Is there something similar to apt-cacher available for CentOS? I would like to ensure that an application is only downloaded once to the network and not hundreds of times. If there isn't an equivalent, would someone please point me in the direction of how I might accomplish this with CentOS? -- James A.

I'm trying to install Skype on a CentOS 4.4 system and I've followed the instructions on the Skype website at http://www.skype.com/download/skype/linux/repositories.html but when I run yum install skype it fails with a whole string of error messages, ending with Error: failure: RPMS/libsigc++20-2.0.17-1.el4.rf.i386.rpm from rpmforge: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.

Completely off topic, but I'm sure someone out there is using scripts that require a sudo password of some sort, so I'll ask. What are people doing to automate tasks that required sudo passwords in order to run? sudo without a password is not an option for me, but I would like to be able to enter the password once have it saved and then read back when sudo is required. something

I'd like to set up a machine to dual-boot Ubuntu and CentOS5. Any problems foreseen with this? I'm mostly worried about disk labeling; they each need their own /boot and / filesystems. (Or do they need separate /boot partitions? Obviously there's an issue with boot.* and *.b and what System.map is symlink'd to, etc., but maybe there's a way to work around that.)

Hi all, Trying to install 5.0 or 5.1 (i386 or x86_64) on a new system from an install DVD. As soon as the installer launches anaconda, the screen shuts off and from this point I'm unable to switch to any other tty. This is an Intel core2duo machine on an Intel P35 chipset motherboard, Geforce 8400GS video card connected to a BenQ 20" widescreen LCD. Any ideas what could cause

Hi, I am looking for a cheap PCI (or AGP) video card with dual output (DVI or VGA) and CentOS support. Any recommendations? I am not interested in games.

If I need to rate limit file transfers between to machines, what can I do at the host-level within CentOS, and what might I need to "yum install" in order to do? (For example, say I would like to rsync something, and then I would like to make sure that I don't exceed, say, 10 Mbs.)

I was wondering if anyone was aware of a method for mounting virtual CD devices with CD image files. I keep images (.CUE/.BIN pairs) of my CD collection on a NAS appliance tucked away in my closet. I'd like to write a script to mount each one, create ID tags, rip the tracks, then move along to the next one. I figure with a quad core opteron, it should be able to crank through them in a

Hi All, Sorry if this has been answered many times. But i have been going through a lot of pages (via google search). The more i search, the more its confusing me.

I was playing aeound with the GUI authentication configuration and was called away from my desk after I had configured the LDAP DC entries but before I had tried to start the ldap server or do much of anything else.

I am currently using Cyrus IMAPd, and been using it for a long time, the main reason being that I want an IMAP server with nice server-side filtering, which Cyrus provides via Sieve. Given that Sieve is integrated with Squirrelmail, all is good. Or is it? Cyrus IMAPd is powerful, but it's a complete mess to upgrade, either when upgrading the software per se, or when upgrading the whole

The machine is using the NVidia CK804 chipset and has SATA disks.
