similar to: question on CentOS 4.4 SCD -> CentOS 5?

Please (particularly Smooge) review and comment on the new content at http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/MigrationGuide Based heavily on the pieces I added earlier to http://wiki.centos.org/Migration/5 Tried to keep it general. Would assume that we want only one page on Migration with sub-pages for specific versions. I referred to the CentOS 3 FAQ entry on WBEL migration but it would seem to be

I am trying to migratean existing RHEL 6 machine to Centos 6. I followed the instructions in https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/MigrationGuide I run into problems: when I run yum upgrade then yum tries to access a repository rhel-6-server-extras-rpms and then fails. What can I do that yum no longer tries to access this repository?

Thank you. I could resolve the issues, by editing stuff in /etc/yum/pluginconf.d There, I created a file rhnplugin.conf with the content [rhel-6-server-extras-rpms] enabled=0 [rhel-6-server-optional-rpms] enabled=0 and I edited the file search-disabled-repos.conf and inserted into the line ignored-repos= ... the pattern rhel* I do not know whether this second step was necessary, I happened

The discussions on the HowTos/MigrationGuide page[s] back in late March never reached closure. The last suggestion on structuring was that there should be version-specific pages such as HowTos/MigrationGuide/CentOS5. I see the page was linked to from HowTos, and Ralph's comment: 52 2007-04-15 13:16:02 2064 RalphAngenendt Linked to Migration Guides - people: Please link to your pages after

Someone told me that if you have a CentOS or Fedora server, you can pay a Red Hat yearly fee and get them to support it (because the environments are so similar). Can anyone here substantiate this claim? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The free DHCP solution, ISC, seems to be having scaling issues (i.e. handling only about 200 DHCPDISCOVER and 20 DHCPRENEW requests), and I was wondering if anyone had any open source suggestions of solutions that could scale much better? (Ideally, I could find a free version of a solution like Nominum, but I know that's asking for much.) Anyone have any suggestions? -- Also on LinkedIn??

I'm following the instructions on this URL http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/RT_3.4.x_On_CentOS_4.x and came across the part that said "WARNING: RT overwrites some packages from the base distribution, especially mod_perl" How exactly do I "protect" the RT repository? It links to the "ProtectBase" program http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/ProtectBase

I'm looking for an open source router solution, and someone from the list recently recommended zebra (www.zebra.org). I haven't yet identified all my needs, but I'm guessing that it will do all my routing needs for a, say, class C set of IP addresses, particularly if I ever have to do anything BGP-related. Anyone have any pointers before I delve in? Or possibly a recommendation for

What is the best way to upgrade to Python 2.6 from the default Python 2.4. I'm running CentOS 5 --> Linux mybox.domain.com 2.6.18-238.9.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue Apr 12 18:10:13 EDT 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux I've read these horror stories online and don't want to break yum.

Hi, could I get a permission to add to HowTos/MigrationGuide a guide for conversion of RHEL 7 to CentOS 7? For personal reasons, I had to switch my machines from RHEL to CentOS, and I think it would be helpful to have it there. If it is OK to have migration guides for lower versions of RHEL/CentOS, why not 7? OK, here we go: URLBASE=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64/Packages

I recently installed VMware on CentOS 4.4 (using the single server CD). I installed VMware fine, and then installed the VMware-mui tools that allow me to use a Windows box to console to the server. From my Windows box, I can create VMs on the fly just fine. Interestingly, I can create virtual Debian boxes ok, but I can't create virtual CentOS boxes. What might I be missing? As soon as I

hi, I'm using the SCD-20 solar controller from IVT Gmbh in combination with a 230Ah battery and a photovoltaic panel to power a small server based on an Intel ATOM N270 CPU. the controller is (will be) connected to the server via RS232 (1200 8n1) and works like this: - if the battery voltage drops below 12V, a warning LED is switched on - if the battery voltage drops below 10.5V, the load

I'm having problems installing CentOS via a USB drive. First, I tried using Unetbootin, but with no avail. The 8MB netinstall doesn't work, and the big DVD image doesn't work either. http://lubi.sourceforge.net/unetbootin.html Then I tried this http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-centos-5-live-install-via-windows/ with a CentOS DVD file, and that did not work (just hangs).
