I have a server running some dababases in CentOS4.5 fully updated, but this morning I read this error in messages log: Trover st0:Block limits 1- 16777215 bytes ****************************************************************** 172.25.8.236: Servinaves ATA ABNORMAL DTATUS 0X20DF ATA ABNORMAL DTATUS 0X20DF ATA ABNORMAL DTATUS 0X20DF ata comand 0x35 timeout, stat 0xd0 host - stat 0x21 atat1: status

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.

Maybe, it's stupid question but I've just installed CentOS5 and when I'm going to edit some of my conf files I see no colors as it did in old CentOS4x... I'm using: [root at domian:~]$ echo $TERM xterm Thanks in advance, Regards, Israel

Hi All, I just enabled nscd to see if I can speed up some operations on our large NFS/NIS environment, however, now that I've enabled nscd I am no longer able to sudo. Can someone please point me in the right direction? Everything was working fine prior to enabling it. -- James A.

Hi all, we're trying to install CentOS 5.1 on a Sun Ultra 40. This is an AMD-powered machine and we're using the x86_64 version of CentOS 5.1. The machine is using the NVidia CK804 chipset and has SATA disks. It also has 16GB's of memory which prompted us to upgrade the BIOS on the machine from 1.1 to 1.6 per this (we also have the two quadro cards):

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

Hi, I have a new server HP proliant DL320 G4, with two 160 GB SATA hdds.. I have installed CentOS 4.5 with mdadm without any problem, but when I disconnect one disk the server does not boot or I received a kernel panic when booting... I have disabled the SATA embeded raid (BIOS) and nothing.. I've also download the driver from HP site HP (Embedded SATA RAID Controller Driver Diskette for Red

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

Having just upgraded my system from CentOS 4.4 to 5.0, I'm a bit disappointed that I still can't install skype from the skype repo using yum - when I try yum install skype, I end up with: libsigc++20-2.0.17-1.el5. 100% |=========================| 217 kB 00:13 ---> Package libsigc++20.i386 0:2.0.17-1.el5.rf set to be updated --> Running transaction check --> Processing

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. When I returned the terminal session was screen-saver locked and entering my user password did not make it respond. I kept getting a time-out error. Rebooting took forever and was
