Using "ipset" under CentOS7
ipset on CentOS6 comes with /etc/rc.d/init.d/ipset so that "service ipset reload" can be used to (re)load the configuration. CentOS7 doesn't come with an equivalent for systemd: # systemctl reload ipset.service Failed to issue method call: Unit ipset.service failed to load: No such file or directory. # systemctl start ipset.service Failed to issue method call: Unit ipset.service

how to export and import VMware servers
I recently build a CentOS-based VMware server (the free ver) and now need to move all of the virtual machines off my old Windows-based VMware server (also the free ver) to this next CentOS-based one. I have successfully FTP'd all of the files to the new CentOS box and have even opened the server in the console Window, but cannot "start" it. I start the machine (like I always do),

forcing Y on yum upgrades
I'd like to be able to do a "yum upgrade" without having to hit Y each time. While "yum install -y [program]}" seems to work, "yum -y upgrade" doesn't seem to. Is there a way to easily do this? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

virtual hdd problems when CentOS is guest OS
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

CentOS 4 vs 5 for VMware?
For stability reasons, I'm running CentOS 4 for VMware (it's the devil I know). Are there any compelling reasons to upgrade to CentOS 5 for it? I'm relatively new to the whole virtualisation scene and perhaps there are some updated packages that might be good for VMware?

SFTP error (perhaps due not to using passive mode?)
I'm getting a weird error when I try to sFTP on a CentOS box (which I don't have root access). when I run: sftp -oPort=990 user at host.domain.com I get the following error, which I suspect is a result of not being in "passive mode" (which works when I use Filezilla on Windows) Connecting to host.domain.com ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host

CentOS version of /srv/www/htdocs ?
I'm installing NagiosQL on CentOS 4.5 and am trying to follow these instructions http://www.nagiosql.org/wiki/Documentation "....decompress the nagiosql-*.tar.gz to a directory accessible by your webserver (e.g. /srv/www/htdocs)" But since there is now /srv/www/htdocs folder on my installation, I'm not sure what to do on CentOS instead. Any advice? -------------- next part

disabling SELinux on CentOS: a good idea?
I was banging my head against the wall trying to figure out why my Nagios install wasn't working on CentOS 4.5 (I'm used to Debian), and so I disabled SELinux and everything magically started working. Is this a good long term idea? Or is there a better way of doing things? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

best way to upgrade php4 -> php5 on CentOS?
What is the best way to upgrade PHP4 to PHP5 on CentOS? I see from "rpm -qa" that I'm running PHP-4.3.9. Should I uninstall this old PHP4 package and then reinstall PHP5? Or is there some cool yum upgrade thing I might run? This is a VMware virtual box for testing, so I'm more concerned about learning what to do, rather than interrupting anything. -------------- next part

yum upgrade perl question
I'm looking to install n2rrd, which requires Perl 5.8.x (http://n2rrd.diglinks.com/cgi-bin/trac.cgi) I see that lots of Perl stuff is installed. Do I just need to yum upgrade perl-libwww-perl-5.78.5 to the latest? Here's what I have installed perl-wise: [root at nagios-server nagios2cacti]# rpm -qa | grep perl perl-DBI-1.40-8 perl-HTML-Tagset-3.03-30 perl-XML-Parser-2.34-5

startup config scripts for CentOS
On CentOS-based VM appliance I'm building, I would like to create a script that runs upon login that asks the user a series of questions that does (among other things) ask them to input their networking information (IP, mask, gate, DNS, etc). I'm hoping you guys might point me in the right direction. Here are some of the specific things I'm looking to accomplish with such a script.

chmod / chown settings on /var/www/html
I'm setting up a new CentOS 4.4 server to work with Fruity (a frontend program that operates Nagios). For security purposes, what chmod and chown settings do you put on the /var/www/html folders? Also, can anyone recommend any good LAMP hardening guides? While I'm not planning on putting this into production, I'd like to cover all my bases before that's an issue. --------------

text installer used in Linux?
Can someone tell me the name of the text installer used in distros like Debian / Ubuntu? I'd like to create one upon first time boot for a CentOS-based virtual application I'm making. So, after someone boots up, I'd like to have a little GUI thing ask them questions and then put those variables in a file (or maybe use something like sed to edit other network config files).

installing progs from source on CentOS
I'd like to install NagiosQL on CentOS, but I don't see a yum package for it, so I'm going to download the source code. If I download it, where in CentOS's file system (i.e. in which directory) is the best place to untar, compile, and run it? (Sorry, I've been spoiled by packages!)

where to find Single Server CD edition?
I'm looking for the "Single Server CD" mentioned in this Linux article ( http://www.linux.com/articles/60825), but can seem to find it in the CentOS link provided there in the article. http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/4/isos/i386/ All of the places serving the images have either, (a) all of the 5 cd set, and/or (b) a DVD .torrent file. I just want the ~200MB single server cd.
