Apache stops without evident cause
OS = CentOS-6.4
Uptime = 4 days, 1:31,

Since upgrading a public web service host from dedicated hardware
running CentOS-5.x to a KVM virtual host running CentOS-6.3 I have
experienced intermittent ( one every couple of months) halts by the
Apache web service. There is never any trace left in any of the logs,
there are no SELinux

Debian's Xen versions are vulnerable to a PV privilege escalation [1]. The issue
is tracked as CVE-2012-0217 and public as of today.
Therefore I am filing this bug for coordination

which kernel do people use?
Hi all,
I'm doing a very informal and unscientific poll: which kernel do you use
on your CentOS machines? Not which version of the CentOS kernel, but
which repository. Here are some examples I can think of off the top of
my head:
==CentOS stock
==build own from CentOS SRPMs
==kernel-ml (from ELRepo)
==kernel-lt (from ELRepo)
==OpenVZ kernel
==build own from kernel.org
==other?

broadcom and centos 7
Hi all,
A year or two ago, I installed CentOS 7.0 (or 7.1) on an old MacBook
Pro, and compiled the Broadcom drivers as documented here:
https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless/Broadcom
After not using it for a while, I recently resurrected it, and updated
to 7.4. Unfortunately that page has not been updated in a while, so
only documents compiling for 7.3. When I try the patch, it

centos 7 on older macbook pro
Hi all,
I recently got a brand new MacBook Pro, replacing one that is over 5.5
years old. I'm trying to think of something to do with the old laptop,
and one idea I had was to put CentOS on it. After some initial
struggles, I finally found this page, which tells how to tell the
installer to find hfsplus-utils:
https://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=7327
Then I got to the point of configuring

installer with centosplus kernel?
Hi all,
Is there any way to get a CentOS 7 ISO with the centosplus kernel? I
have some very old hardware I'd like to keep going if easy, but it has
old NVidia network cards that need the forcedeth driver. Apparently
this driver is now in the centosplus kernel, but if I use the default
ISO I won't be able to get on the network to get the centosplus kernel.
(Of course I can get the kernel

Centos OS Crash Recovery, Inquiry.
Actually, I am not sure if we have a backup, because honestly, I am not that very much familiar with Centos. We use it for our mail sever for zimbra and other web servers but after setting it up, as long it is working just fine we don't do any other thing.
Does it have an automatic backup system? And if it does, how can we use it to restore it back?
Thanks.
Regards,
CHRIS
