Hello, I am using wireless N on a DLink-655 wireless router. It is the "A" hardware version with the latest firmware. I am using a channel that no one in my vicinity is using, according to iwlist. I checked the Statistics from the router web interface and they are shown below for a period of less than an hour. It looks like the errors are excessive, especially the "RX Packets

Hi, I have a laptop with 2 hard drives. The first has Fedora 20 (no windows or anything else) and the second is unused. I would like to install CentOS7 on the unused drive so I can dual boot with the choice of the 2 OS's on the Grub menu. I am comfortable in partitioning drives and installing Linux distributions. I am afraid I may mess up the MBR and/or set up Grub incorrectly so I

Hello, I want my CentOS 6.5 computer to have a static IP. Currently I get the IP I want because I have my router assign it on the basis of mac address. I placed the following file as: /etc/sysconfig/networking-scripts/eth0 DEVICE="eth0" BOOTPROTO=static HWADDR=00:1F:D0:9E:AE:67 ONBOOT=yes TYPE=Ethernet USERCTL=no IPV6INIT=no PEERDNS=yes NETMASK=255.255.255.0 IPADDR=192.168.0.99

Hello, I want to build a lightweight server and install centos. Does anyone have a recommendation for a suitable motherboard? Thank you, Joe

Hi, I just installed Samba on my Centos 6.4 computer. Smbstatus says my version is 3.6.9-151.el6-4.1. My smb.conf file only has a [global] and [homes] section. My configuration works, as expected, from a Win7 Virtual Box computer and a Win8 Virtual Box computer. I can see the share from the Windows file explorer and can map the share to a network drive. The Samba server is not virtual.

Hi, I am having interference with my neighbouring wireless networks. Is there a linux tool that enables me to monitor the ESSID, channel, power output and other information for neighbouring wireless networks? I am especially interested in the channel so I can choose a different one. Thank you, Joe

I am running Wordpress on a CentOS 6.5 server which is behind a router. The private IP is 192.168.0.99, the public URL is X.com (name changed). I have two virtual hosts in my httpd.conf file. The second one, listed below, is for Wordpress and it is accessed with http://X.com/d4i or http://www.X.com/d4i. They work fine. Actually, not show, I have more Wordpress virtual hosts, and they are

I am running a Lamp server on a CentOS 6.5 box. It works fine, I am concerned that I may have the wrong file/dir permissions. The directories /var and /var/www are root:root and 755. For /var/www/html and all directories underneath I have apache:apache and 770. For all files under /var/www/html I have apache:apache and 660. Are these these permissions OK? Thank you, Joe

I use an external USB drive and rsync to back up everything in /home. The USB drive has an entry in fstab and I mount it with "# mount /mnt" The rsync command I use is: rsync -av --delete --include='.thunderbird' --include='.filezilla' --include='.putty' \ --exclude='.*' --exclude='Desktop' --exclude='VirtualBox*' /home/* /mnt/home/

Hi, A consultant, long gone, set up postfix, dovecot, amavisd and squirrelmail for my wife. It works fine but my wife wants to change the server name from old.com to new.com so the name is more appropriate for her business. My approach would be to use sed to change all occurences of old.com to new.com. Specifically, I used grep to identify the following files where I should make the changes.

We have a network here with Samba running as a WINS server and is the domain master browser. The network also consists of a couple of Novell 3.11 servers. Our Windows 95 stations have IPX and TCP/IP configured, NETBIOS is NOT enabled for IPX. The Windows 95 stations have the WINS server IP address typed in manually as is the IP address for the machine. The DNS is properly configured to resolve

Hi folks! First post here, so please don't bother if it's not the right place to post those kind of questions. I'm currently running a 4.7-release (upgrade to 4.8 planned but not yet started) on my production box. As I would like to setup a small WLAN (major use for my notebook, other clients are possible) I need to know which cards are really supported. The handbook is IMHO not

I'm running a Linksys WRT54GL router from my CentOS-7 home server. Every now and then (maybe once every 2 days) the router's WiFi cuts out, and I've found no way to solve this except to disconnect the power from the router, wait 10 seconds and then re-connect. This always works. The router is running under dd-wrt. My question is - which makes it a tiny bit CentOS-related - does anyone

Hi, I'm currently at CentOS 5.8. After some penetration testing, found some high severity OpenSSH issues which would require its upgrade. But till CentOS 5.9 the latest rpm available is openssh-4.3p2-82.el5 (which I'm currently using). Is it fine to upgrade to CentOS 6 rpms while I'm on CentOS 5? Thanks, Anumeha

Hello everybody, setting up a netboot server for a really huge network I decided to go with what will be syslinux 4.10 to get support for http transfers. The setup works on my notebook, booting another notebook directly connected. However it fails with a more complex setup: A virtual machine on the second notebook bridged to the ethernet device does not boot, systems from other networks with a
