Hello all fellow CentOS users! I have a working xen setup with 3 paravirt domUs and one Windblows 2003 fully virt domU. There are to virtual networks. As far as I can tell in the paravirt Linux DomUs I have gigabit networking, but not in the fully virt Windows 2003 domU.... Is there a setting for this, or is it not yet supported? I run xen-3.0.3-64.el5_2.3 Kind regards, Coert

Hello all, At our office a have a server running 3 Xen domains. Mail server, etc. I want to make this setup more redundant. There are a few howtos on the combination of Xen, DRBD, and heartbeat. That is probably the best way. Another option I am looking at is a piece of shared storage, a machine running CentOS with a large software RAID 5 array. What is the best means of sharing the storage?

Hello all, we have a new setup with xen on centos5.3 I run drbd from lvm volumes to mirror data between the two servers. both servers are 1U nec rack mounts with 8GB RAM, 2x mirrored 1TB seagate satas. The one is a dual core xeon, and the other a quad-core xeon. I have a gigabit crossover link between the two with an MTU of 9000 on each end. I currently have 6 drbds mirroring across that

Hello all, I have been running xen for a while now with two interfaces: dummy0 for host only communication, and eth0 for the outside network. my script looks like this: (/etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge-more) ------------------------------------------------------------------ #! /bin/sh dir=$(dirname "$0") "$dir/network-bridge" "$@" vifnum=0 netdev=dummy0

Hello all, Windows......................... I have installed a Windows Server 2003 fully virt domU with the GPLPV drivers. The network settings reset on every restart of the domU. Weird STOP errors keep popping up.... Was I naive to think you can run a Windows server on Xen? Are any of you guys doing it successfully? Am I better of just installing windows server 2k3 on bare hardware? Just

Hello all, I am running drbd protocol A to a secondary machine to have 'backups' of my xen domUs. Is it necessary to change the xen domains configs to use /dev/drbd* instead of the LVM volume that drbd mirrors, and which the xen domU runs of? regards, Coert

Hello all, I have a machine with 2 SATA 250GB disks which I want to upgrade to 1TB SATAs This is the partition structure on both disks: Disk /dev/sda: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 25 200781 fd

Hello all, About a year ago I set up a mail server on CentOS using this howto: http://wanderingbarque.com/howtos/mailserver/mailserver.html I managed to add amavisd-new with clamav and spamassassin. It runs very well, but it runs on CentOS 5.2, and if I try to upgrade, amavisd-new and clamav break. we are now also at the point where a backup mx will need to be implemented. If necessary I am

Hello all, I have looked around on the HCL and on other hardware sites. Do any of you have experience with Centos 5.5 64 bit on these motherboards? Regards, Coert Waagmeester

Hello all, Got myself the Linux Advanced Routing & Traffic control book http://lartc.org/howto/ All the commands in the guide do not survive reboots. Could someone point me in the right direction, where I can find CentOS/Redhat specific documentation on the whole /etc/sysconfig/network* setup? Kind regards, Coert Waagmeester

After a filesystem crash dovecot isn't able to repair some of the m-Files. That's okay in general -- but I wonder why he's complaining about "wrong dsync version" if I execute "doveadm force-resync" locally: doveadm(user at mailbox.org): Warning: mdbox /mail-mailbox/mailbox.org/1846405//mdbox/storage: rebuilding indexes doveadm(user at mailbox.org): Error:

hi, what is the current state of dovecot dbox support? is it stable, fast and usable? is it have current advantage over maildir or it will only have when it'll be optimized? is it worth to choose as a default mailbox format in a new dovecot install? thanks. yours. -- Levente "Si vis pacem para bellum!"

Hi Looking for some insight into mdbox index file management and recovery from corruptions. I have a two node cluster on NFS with proxy director in front for user stickness. One node (a nominated master) bidirectionally replicates to a 3rd node on a DR site. We periodically get index file corruptions resulting in rebuilds. However the user experience is poor as messages read/deleted from

I've updated http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation regarding a typical mail_location entry for dbox. Previously it said: mail_location = dbox:~/dbox but of course "dbox" is now the old name for "sdbox", so the example should be updated to say "sdbox" and there might/ought also to be an example for "mdbox". In

Hello people, Since the invention of this storage called dbox, I have never quite gotten round to understanding it, nor getting to use it. It seems so strange to me and I must ask a few stupid questions about it. I use the MTA to deliver mail to Maildir, either in ~/Maildir or /some/path/%d/%n/Maildir. It has always beat me how dbox comes into play under such circumstances. From the wiki, I see

It has been my wish to move to dbox for a long time hoping to reduce the number of writes which is really killing us. Now I wonder what may be the best way of doing so. I'm considering some sort of intermediate migration where the existing Maildir users are changed to single-dbox and then later upgraded to 2.0 and changed to multi-dbox when it becomes stable. But is this a reasonable task

Hi Timo, I've just setup Dovecot v1.2.rc5 and switched the mailbox format of one account to dbox. Therefor I've created an empty directory, called dbox, with access mode 0700, like the user's home directory. After the IMAP login with Thunderbird some dboxes was created. All permissions were set fine (0700 / 0600), except the permissions for the files: *

I'm trying to clean up the code for Dovecot v2.0 and I just keep coming back to the same thought: Is having the super-fast maildir -> single-dbox migration really actually a good idea? Some problems with it: 1. Makes the code more complex.. And I've already fixed many bugs related to that, maybe not all. 2. Having some mails in maildir format and others in dbox format isn't
