similar to: Centos 5.1 distro: How to upgrade 5.0 to 5.1 with yum??

Hello, I am running Debian testing x64 and have manually installed the 6.03pre17 deb packages for extlinux, pxelinux, syslinux, syslinux-common, syslinux-stuff and syslinux-utils. I have a working tftpd-hpa 5.2-18 PXE system and can boot PCs to it. All .c32 binaries, gpxelinux.0 and memdisk are from the Debian packages and everything works except for http/https sources of ISOs. I have tried both

Ady, I had not previously tried three slashes, but have now. No difference unfortunately. I've also tried using the web server on the same machine as the PXE server and using 'http://127.0.0.1/Software/Util1.iso' as the URL, again to no avail. It appears not to be able to connect to anything via http or https. Presumably it uses network settings (such as the gateway) provided by the

>From searching the web, I found that many people have encountered this problem. The fixes the suggested don't seem to work for me... My smb.conf file looks like this [global] workgroup = OURDOMAIN security = ADS realm = OURDOMAIN.com password server = OURSERVER encrypt passwords = yes add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd %u hosts allow = 192.168.X. 127. winbind uid = 10000-20000 winbind

Classification: NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED Solaris 9 Samba 3.4.5 I know this isn't the sort of query that gets much response but I'd be really grateful of any advice people can offer. I'm getting really fed up with Samba as I've never been able to make it work properly. Either I'm missing something basic (probably) or it just doesn't behave in the way I think it should!

I have performed the 5.1 update via the 5 repo on a couple of systems. I then went to switch these systems to my new local repo using ther $releasever variable. It still has the value of 5, not 5.1 Where is this set? Why was it not changed to 5.1? On the one clean install from the 5.1 isos, $releasever is at 5.1 I think.

Hi, I've just turned from Fedora Core to Centos 5, And would like to know the 'official' way/mechanism to upgrade a bunch of Centos 5 machines. My basic situation is: hundred of machines will be installed with Centos 5.0 by means of kickstart. and then the machines will always uses Centos 5.0 kickstart images for initial installation, not Centos 5.1, Centos 5.2, etc. So my

Hello all, We have a script that does a nightly backup of a windows server to a linux fileserver. The linux system uses smbclient to make a tarball of the share. I get this error when running smbclient: Domain=[OURSERVER] OS=[Windows 5.0] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager] tar: dumped 56781 files and directories Total bytes written: 9800680960 write_data: write failure.

The problem is that the sender of the spam as something like voicemail at ourdomain.fr ( the user voicemail doesn't exist in our database ) And sometimes dovecot create the directory and store the reply 's mail...

hi! Sorry in advance if I am not on the right mailing-list and sorry if my question is cover somewhere is doc (I didn't find anything). The result from nmblookup (same result on all platform) for a given samba server isn't what I expect. The key part of my smb.conf is: [global] netbios name = ourserver2 netbios aliases = ourserverdev ourserverlab ourserver name

Hi all, i'm trying out a netinstall test installation. When asked to where I do want to install I got a bunch of choices. If i select HTTP I insert: server: mirror.centos.org path: centos/$releasever/os/$basearch but then he says to me that he can't find the "boot.iso" in: http://mirror.centos.org//centos/$releasever/os/$basearch ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ please note the double

This is a list of issues for discussion for CentOS-4. Most of it is based on my experience from building/maintaining CentOS-2 and observing CentOS-3. I have not seen the CentOS-4 beta yet so I don't know if any of this is already done. If these have been discussed on IRC then perhaps someone could produce a shot summary of the outcomes....? * Just call it CentOS-4 not 4.1 etc. Too

I'm having the same problem as Valent Turkovic. I have the following /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo (mind the line-wraps): [base] name=CentOS-$releasever - Base mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch= $basearch&repo=os #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-5

Hey folks, I just did an update on a system that is taking the better part of a day ( 5.3 ---> 5.7 ) mainly due to file download times. And I have 4 or 5 more systems to do. I know I can create my own repository and then point them at it - but that is difficult here because rsync is blocked (ggrrrrrr...) Surely there must be a way to have yum on the first box automatically cache everything

Cough, cough, cough (I have a bit of a cold, please excuse me) Thanks for the great CentOS. I assume the following means I need to humbly ask for the kernel-vm for 5.1, but I am not certain. If so, I hereby humbly ask. --> Running transaction check --> Processing Dependency: kernel-headers for package: glibc-headers --> Processing Dependency: kernel-headers >= 2.2.1 for package:

I can't figure out exactly what to put as my Icecast webroot directory, nor what to tell my Winamp Oddcast plugin to name as the mountpoint. I'm a n00b here and barely know what these words even mean, lol, but I can get the Oddcast to log in to the Icecast and people can go to the .m3u file I put into the mountpoint, but it either just cycles songs or doesn;t play. I noticed that it only

The good news is I believe I got Weakforce running 1) curl -X GET http://127.0.0.1:8084/?command=ping -u wforce:ourpassword {"status":"ok"}[ 2) after running the sample for loop: for a in {1..101}; do curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data '{"login":"ahu", "remote": "127.0.0.1",

Hi, I have the x86_64 arch on my server so therfore i expect that yum updates only x86_64 packages. With the last *yum update* i?ve noticed a strange behaviour while retrieving the needed packeges. As you you see, yum wants install packages for different architectures: glibc x86_64 2.3.4-2.25 base 4.9 M glibc i686 2.3.4-2.25 base 5.1 M . .

Hi, I plan to setup an forum for my friend and his friends shortly. But before I setup, I would like to know what are the popular open source forum software/packages to look at.. Please advise.

We're using quite successfully a samba 4.1 AD setup authenticating user. We have on an unregular basis mails that can't be delivered because dovecot-pam fails to verify the credentials. I'm trying to debug this and set the loglevel up to 3. I can see an error message being spammed in the log files and can't figure out what causes this. I expect a configuration error somewhere

Hi, Fedora Core ext3 file systems newbie questions: Just interested in the Linux ext3 features but got confused with "large_file" and "ext_attr". First, what's the "large_file" feature REALLY means? For file systems created with same commands and options some file systems have it on while some not. It is said that the feature is automatic -- If there is a
