Hello everyone, I got a question, I'm not new in the linux scene or even a geek, but I am confused about certain stuff regarding Bind, DNS stuff, or whatsoever, maybe it's a silly question. Anyway. About 3 years ago I hired a dedicated server in certain company, for hosting my site and some other sites, didn't work at all the plan I had, nevertheless I was using Redhat 9 or something

Hi Centos Users I would like to allow outgoing traffic to Google Analytics servers (destination port 80). I wish to do a iptables rule. How to whitelist all Google Analytics servers? cheers Simon -- XMPP: sjolle at swissjabber.org

Hi, anyone successfully compiled http://download.pureftpd.org/pub/pure-ftpd/snapshots/pure-ftpd-1.0.22.tar.bz2 Thanks, David

I'm interested in doing centralized logging & analysis of logs from my CentOS boxes. I messed around with syslog-ng and it seems like it's a better syslog. But I noticed most of the "usual suspects" of third-party repo maintainers (Dag, Axel, etc.) don't include it. Karanbir has an el4 version, but all my boxes are CentOS 5. I was going to go ahead and roll my own

Hi, To get my system on time, I usually issue these two commands: # ntpdate de.pool.ntp.org # hwclock -w And when I want this to be done on startup, I put the two lines in rc.local. I wonder if this is an orthodox way to do things. Or is there something more appropriate? Niki Kovacs

Hi. I just setup one of my machines as a DHCP server. I'd like it to handle the hostnames of clients. Don't know if this is an orthodox thing to do (feel free to add your comments :oD). Here's the server's relevant lines of dhcpd.conf: --8<------- ... # Envoyer les noms d'h?tes aux clients use-host-decl-names on; # Adresses statiques host babasse { hardware ethernet

Hi, I have a CentOS 5.0 LAMP server, and I need to install the php-yaz module to implement the Z39.50 protocol (which handles data exchange for public libraries). I've already done this with Debian (a one-liner: apt-get install php-yaz) and also on Slackware (more complicated: compile Yaz, rebuild PHP). Has anyone here ever done this on CentOS? What would be the most orthodox method to

Hi, I'm running a medical application on a local network, using MySQL as a database. The application can also connect to remote hosts, so the idea is to install it on one machine acting as a "server", and then install it on the other machines on the LAN, but configure these to use the database on the "server". I guess before doing that, I'll better try and get

Hi, I just migrated my office's server from Slackware64 14.1 to CentOS 7. So far everything's running fine, I just have a few minor details to work out. I removed the firewalld package and replaced it by a simple Iptables script: --8<---------------------------------------------------- #!/bin/sh # # firewall-lan.sh IPT=$(which iptables) MOD=$(which modprobe) SYS=$(which sysctl)

Hi, I'm running CentOS 4.3 with the rpmforge and kbs repos enabled. I just installed MPlayer and tried it. It has a small problem. When I want to view myfile.wmv, Mplayer displays the following error message: "Error opening/initialising the selected video_out (-vo) device." So I opened a console, took a peek at the various options (mplayer -vo help), and then the movie worked

Hi, I have to setup a scheduled task on a server, and I just read through some crontab docs. Now I'm confused. It's not so much the syntax of the cron job to define (I got that), it's more... how do I get to define it? Use a text editor (vi or the likes) to edit /etc/crontab directly? Or create some empty file in /etc/cron.daily or /etc/cron.hourly or the likes and then edit it

I'm just starting to learn to use R, and although I'm seeing lots of functions aimed at doing orthodox statistical analyses, I don't see the same for Bayesian analyses. What support does R have for Bayesian statistics?

Hi, I'm just migrating some stuff from Slackware Linux to CentOS, and I have a question about the orthodox way of configuring a network connection. On a desktop or workstation, I usually get rid of NetworkManager: # systemctl stop NetworkManager # yum remove NetworkManager Then I edit the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-XXXXX file corresponding to my network interface. Here's

Hi, I recently migrated my office's server from Slackware64 14.1 to CentOS 7. Right now I'm in the process of configuring the Squid web proxy. I edited the default /etc/squid/squid.conf, and here's what I have so far: --8<-------------------------------------------------- # /etc/squid/squid.conf # Nom d'h?te du serveur Squid visible_hostname amandine.microlinux.lan #

Hi, I'm running CentOS 7 on all my servers, in three different contexts : 1. simple local server 2. public facing server 3. router/gateway/firewall I'm currently in the process of moving my KISS-style network-scripts-style configurations to something more orthodox based on NetworkManager. Scenarios (1) and (2) caused no problems, but (3) is giving me some headache. Let me

I am learning to program with the Go language. I have been following things and I am banking on FreeBSD being a more common OS around the world by V10.0 even on ARM! Most everything I have on my slate is geared towards future FreeBSD. They are gearing to run LLVM/Clang as soon as possible. I am interested in what one of you who know what's up, would suggest to a guy learning programming

I have two separate (virtual) servers: one running Samba4 functioning as an AD controller, and one running Samba 3.6.1 functioning as a file & print server. I am using security=ads and winbind. Everything is working great. Where things get a little messy is with the [homes] shares. Here is what I am doing now: My Samba3 smb.conf has a typical [homes] section. I create a subdirectory for

Hi everybody, I am wondering how i can add a "stretch" color bar / legend to a graph that uses colorBrewer to define the colors in it. I will try to explain my graph, but i also uploaded it at: ftp://ftpext.usgs.gov/pub/er/fl/st.petersburg/Monica_pal/ The file is: robcor_training_pca.pdf - i will also attach this file in case some people accept attachments. So i took apart the
