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, 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.

When I log into a virtual console (e.g.,#4) as ordinary user, I initially have a prompt & cursor. I then do several ls -l /home/user-name and several lines of data. If the number of lines is less than it takes to fill the screen, I will retain the prompt & cursor. If the number of lines (resulting from that last command) fills the screen or more, the last visible line will be data

Greets Anyone on the list using newer HP G4 or G5 server hardware like DL36X or DL38X with Centos? Or other HP hardware? Are you running Intel, AMD, or both? Are you using SAS or SATA or a mix? Are you using Centos 3, CentOS 4, or starting migration to CentOS 5 Are things rock solid stable without any issues? I know older Compaq and HP boxen have been rock solid for us for years yet we

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 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

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

Hi, I recently took delivery of a bunch of HP BL25p blades to add to my collection. I am attempting to install Centos4 x86_64 using PXE - the initial PXE DHCP stuff works, and the kernel and initrd are downloaded, but the server then immediately clears the screen and displays: "1706-Smart Array Controller Extended BIOS Data Area Memory Corrupted Array Controller Interrupt 14h BIOS Cannot

Hey, I've build a Wine LivePC so that people can take a linux operating system capable of running Windows programs on a USB drive. Its great for carrying a portable work environment with you, providing a container for safely running executables you download from the internet, or making an isolated environment for a family member that they can carry with them.

Hi, I've got a Centos 5 box (recently replaced a Centos4 box of the same function). The means of applying custom SELinux policy has changed somewhat from 4->5. I've got it mostly figured out; I have a local.te file with my custom policy and also which defines a few new file types, and a local.fc with appropriate defintions of file contexts. When I run: # checkmodule -M -m -o

yum apparently still can't cope with transparent proxies.

I''m using the grid widget with an underlying GridTableBase and trying to implement a "Find" button which would cause the current cursor position to go to the next matching cell. I''m wondering if there''s an easy way to do it? I''m playing with the Grid.select_block_row(), Grid.set_grid_cursor() and Grid.scroll() methods, but the results are a bit

I have a HP OfficeJet K80xi "all-in-one" USB printer. When I send a file to the printer from a virtual console using the command : lp "anyfilename", the response is "request ID is HPOJK80-7 (1 file(s)". There is no printer action, no sound, nothing. The printers name is HPOJK80; the -7 is the job number. The command lpstat shows there are a total of 7 jobs in the

hi All, thanks for the responses. After being dropped into the # Filesystem repair prompt, ( on account of "inode 27344909 has illegal blocks" ) following warm reboot (via "reboot") after finding (SAN ) filesystem in read-only mode yesterday morning (possibly because of HBA fault on SAN) , I ran fsck -r /data (Linux version 2.6.18-92.1.18.el5 , Red Hat 4.1.2-42 , ext3

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.
