I'm trying to set up mounting of a Windows share for non-root users via /etc/fstab on a CentOS 4.6 box - I've followed the instructions at: <http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/WindowsShares> Using something like the /etc/fstab example given in the wiki page (with, of course, using a valid share, username and password for my set up): //winbox/getme /mnt/win cifs

Hi all I am trying to use the cifs module to mount a share from a win2k3 server but I am getting the following error in /var/log/messages - the filesystem does mount but i'm having other issues accessing the data from our web based app. Can anyone explain why I get this error please? Indeed the file mount_cifs.so does not exist on the machine. automount[31080]: open_mount: (mount):cannot

Can I adjust the ssh daemon to log IP addresses instead of hostnames? I assume this situation is feasible... * 10.10.10.10 attempts to ssh to the server * reverse dns resolves to "somehost.domain.com" * ssh daemon logs "somehost.domain.com" in messages * foward dns on "somehost.domain.com" resolves to 10.10.10.20 Thus it causes some of my scripts a problem if the

I removed an ATA drive (/home) for a new SATA and my system would not boot. I'm guessing that it put the MBR on that drive instead of the drive that holds the / partition. What's the best way confirm where the MBR resides and, after I verify that's my problem, how I can move (or make a copy) onto a different drive? Thanks, Scott

Looks like Nautilus is periodically 'stat'-ing the bookmark location. How about making a softlink to the target dir in your home directory, then bookmarking the link in nautilus. Hopefully Nautilus will stat the link and not the target then. K

So both "yum upgrade" and "yum update" now are complete and there's no new packages. However, when I attempt to check my version, I'm still showing 5. # cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 5 (Final) I remember seeing 5.1 repositories being access for the upgrades. Is it possible my system did not upgrade? # uname -r 2.6.18-53.1.4.el5.centos.plus Thanks, Scott

I have an ext3 partition from our SAN. The size was increased. I am attempting to re-size this specific ext3 partition, obviously. I unmount the partition, run fdisk, change the cyls, and save... WARNING: Re-reading the partition table failed with error 22: Invalid argument. The kernel still uses the old table. The new table will be used at the next reboot. And that is the message that I

Why not just use autofs and have it mounted on demand? jh

I have a simple script that sends one file to two locations on the same destination server. Here's the code: DEST="remotehost" SRC="/home/boss/application.conf" DST1="/home/user1/application.conf" DST2="/home/user2/application.conf" RSYNC1=`rsync -caW -e ssh $SRC $DEST:$DST1` RSYNC2=`rsync -caW -e ssh $SRC $DEST:$DST2` This runs every 5 minutes.

Ok, I built a test system to duplicate my problem and provide myself a platform that I can mess around with to try and break any features. My problem is G729 pass-through from a gateway to a phone. I think I even have transcoding working, which makes me more confused on what's wrong with my pass-through. It must be a configuration issue. The basics... *CLI> core show version Asterisk

I posted this to the CentOS list and was advised to post here so here goes ... I've looked at the CentOS docs-list as well as the Wiki as I was interested in Samba. On one CentOS box I've got 3.0.32 (the latest bug-fixed version from Samba.org) and on another I've got 3.0.28 (the latest from upstream). The docs look almost the same and the docs refer to security = share. However

So I'm working with the iSCSI Initiator and an EqualLogic SAN. I'm not sure when this might have happened, but it appears that the /dev/sdc device is missing, yet the /dev/sdc1 partition exists AND is mountable. Is there a method to re-create the /dev/sdc device? I cannot dd or fdisk it, obviously, but I can mount the /dev/sdc1 partition and it works just fine. Not having the /dev/sdc

Is there a way to use an HTTP proxy (with a user/pass) with yum? Or at least a way to pass a user/pass through yum? I have a situation with a CentOS server behind a web filter appliance. Thanks, Scott

I have 2 installs of 4.4 that I'm experimenting with. 'yum update' on one of them upgraded to 4.5, but the other system does NOT upgrade. Any ideas? I ran a 'yum clean all' but it did not appear to help. Thanks, Scott

I have a fresh 1.4.10.1 installation that appears to have a problem with g729 pass-through. I can see the gateway in question sending an INVITE using g729b. However, the Asterisk is only sending g711 in the INVITE to my Polycom phone. [gateway] disallow=all allow=g729 [phone] disallow=all allow=ulaw allow=alaw allow=g729 There's the codec configs for the gateway and the phone in question.

Is there an easy way to show all active channels AND the codecs they're using? Other than going through EACH channel individually to check the codec which is, obviously, not a very efficient process. Thanks, Scott

Hi, all My problem is concerning Automatic Integrated Windows Auth (IWA). I've successfully on my ubuntu a) joined a Windows domains (by net join -S), =20 b) list domain users (by wbinfo -u), c) logined gnome with a domain user (domain\username). What drives me to do all this is to expect 1) my firefox automatically answers ntlm (a.k.a. iwa, integrated windows = auth) when=20 I visit an
