Hi, This is semi-OT, but is Centos-related. I'm looking for an IPTables GUI to help us with our expanding network configuration. I know there's plenty out there, but most of them seem to manage the firewall on the computer on which they run, or only handle one firewall at a time. I need one that can easily manage multiple firewalls from some sort of central location/repository, i.e.

I have two Centos servers here..only one of them is having this issue. Resolving Dependencies --> Populating transaction set with selected packages.

We have a 10Gbps connection to our server so I need to be able to create VMs using the faster e1000 nics instead of the default Realtek 100Mbps ones but I''m not sure how to go about it. Is there a walkthrough or "howto" or can someone point me at some simple instructions? I''m using xen-3.0.3-105.el5_5.5 and Centos 5.5 kernel 2.6.18-194.32.1.el5.centos.plusxen VMs are

Circumstances: The system is a hardware duplicate of a system that installed and works for many months. Running CentOS 4.x. The system was previously in service with CentOS 3.x and I'm trying to install CentOS 4.1 on it from downloaded CDs which have worked previously (these are the same CDs used to install the system that's working).

hi All, A fault on our SAN dropped us down to a read-only filesystem and after reboot, we have an "Unexpected Inconsistency" and I am being instructed by the boot to run fsck manually without -a or -p (this was after I think processing around 15% of the filesystem) The specific message is "inode 27344909 has illegal blocks" I recall running fsck some years ago on smaller

I've just setup nic bonding on our server (DL585-G7 running Centos 5.5 x86_64) as detailed on the wiki: http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/BondingInterfaces and all seems fine but from other "howto's" I've seen on the web, they're should be a /proc/net/bond0/info As far as I can see, I don't have one and I'm not sure if it should be there or its absence is a

I came across an old post comment yesterday (from http://echenh.blogspot.com/2010/04/how-to-extend-lvm-on-vmware-guest-os.html ) discussing the "hack" of LVM on Linux VM guests and whether it's better not to use it to simplify disk management. I've re-posted the comment below, does it sound reasonable? Is it better to not use LVM on Linux VM guests? --Russell

When I log into a virtual console as ordinary user, I initially have a prompt & cursor. After I print 24 lines or more, the last visible (24th) line will be data instead of the prompt & cursor. The up arrow no longer gives the previous commands. A clear command will restore the prompt & cursor. This bug first appeared after I installed CentOS5. I do not believe it is a CentOS5

Hello, Is that possible to disable running of PHP on certain directories? I am running a server which provides personal homepage service. However, not every user are familiar with security, some may upload some PHP scripts with bugs/holes. I do not want them to be executed on the server. I can enable the safe_mode, but I have some other PHP scripts which need safe_mode to be disabled. Any

Hi! I have a really weird problem with some of my servers, namely all the ones running Centos5 When I try to download a file from the server to a machine outside our Cisco 6500 router/firewall, the download hangs about half the times (15 out of 40) when less than half a megabyte into the transfer (varied from 76 kb to 496 kb). One server has a portchannel (Cisco speak for ethernet bundle),

Hi all, A few months ago, I migrated some of our internal servers to HP blades, as the VMWare box they were previously running on was getting too slow. However, it wasn't without it's problems, and eventually the only way I could get them to work was: Install the same version of CentOS on the blade (believed to be 5.0, but /etc/redhat-release says 5.2) Took down both servers, booting

Greetings, everybody I've browsed around a bit, but there seems to be no single practical list of this kind. What would you do to make a new Centos server which must run apache, IMAP (Dovecot) and SMTP (PostFix) and nothing else for a few domains as secure from attacks as possible, using only standard RPM packages as much as possible? (Please note that choice of other IMAP and SMTP servers
