similar to: CentOS 7 for i386/32-bit?

Hello listmates, I am wondering if there is a set of scripts/utilities for automatically starting and running headless (no X11) VM's using VirtualBox omn a CentOS 6 server. VNC/RDP access to the VM's would be fine. Any help much appreciated. Cheers, Boris.

Hello listmates, I have discovered a very strange SFTP problem which I can not connect to anything but NIS thus far. See here: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-server-73/sftp-seems-to-fail-for-nis-accounts-under-openssh-5-x-816020/ http://readlist.com/lists/suse.com/suse-linux-e/38/193419.html Hence the question: is NIS (YP) still in use much anywhere for authentication? Thanks.

Hello listmates, So, what's the story with CentOS 6? It is supposed to be out by now, or coming out soon, or so I heard - but yet there seems to be no mention of it at http://centos.org/ . Does anybody know what's up with that? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, I would like to build a 12-15 TB RAID 5 data server to run under ContOS. Any recommendations as far as hardware, configuration, etc? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, I have two seemingly identical (in this reglard, at least) machine - both of them are running CentOS 6.2 with bind (bind-chroot) installed. I used webmin to edit the DNS configuration. One one of them it seems to work fine, on the other I get messages akin to the following: Failed to create master zone : Failed to replace /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf with

Is there a little setup display right on the box? Just asking because I have seen that on some boxes. Cheers, Boris.

Hello all, Is there a way to recognize a hot-plugged disk (i.e., to get the system to recognize it and build the appropriate /dev/sd* device for the new device) without a reboot? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, I have a machine that is running Centos 5.8. I am trying to install MediaWiki 1.19 on it and that requires PHP 5.3 which I got from the combination of the Remi and EPEL repositories. But now I can not fet a working PHP MySQL connector for it. Does anybody know where I can find one? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, I have encountered a rather peculiar situation. We have a Centos 6 VM (64 bit) running on a VMware vSphere 5.5 server. It was running just fine until one day I decided to reboot it and it just would not boot up. Effectively, dracut failed to initialize the LVM, much like under the scenario described here:

Hello listmates, Is there a good manual anywhere on how to boot a dual-boot Linux/Windows machine into Linux and launch the Windows as a XEN virtual machine? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, If I have a regular, ACL-capable filesystem on Linux (say, ext4 or xfs) is there a way for me to establish the following: 1) There is a directory, say, /home/joe . It is owned by user joe . No one but joe (and root, of course) can read or write anything in this directory. 2) No one can change permissions on that directory, not even joe. In other words, in joe all of a sudden

Hello all, I am trying to get djbdns ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Djbdns ) running on CentOS 7. So far I have wirtten the djbdns.service and djbdns.socket files. The sockets (TCP and UDP 53) for some reason would not start and I don't know how to debug that; the service does start but only when I start it manually by running systemctl start djbdns So, I am a real noob when it comes to

Hello listmates, I've got a few older 32-bit PC's that only have a CD drive (no DVD). So I downloaded all the ISO's and I thought I'd install CentOS 5.5 on this 1.25 GB P-3 (I think, don't remember what CPU it's got right off hand, not that it should matter). So I tried it there, got a fatal exception. OK, no problem - thinking that maybe something was wrong with that

Hello listmates, As some of you may know we have been having a really bad problem with Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8169 cards. See here for details: http://forum.nginx.org/read.php?24,140124,140224 So now my question is, what PCI 1 Gbit/s Ethernet adapters should I use under CentOS? If you have had a consistent positive experience with any particular chipset/brand please speak up.

Hello listmates, We are currently running NIS for authentication but would like to migrate to LDAP. Thing is, though, that some of the machines that authenticate via NIS are so old I'd rather not even touch them. Hence the question - is there a good way to have an NIS server for user authentication that is a mirror image of an LDAP server, with a proviso that an update introduced there is

Hello listmates, Somehow or other my DNS services that are part of the ndjbdns-1.06-1.el7.x86_64 package would not start properly at startup. When I then start them up using systemctl: systemctl start dnscache systemctl start tinydns they start just fine. >From the log I got the following for tinydns: Oct 24 15:01:43 ns99 tinydns[1867]: tinydns: version 1.06: starting: Oct-24 2014 15:01:43

Hello listmates, It appears that on the second machine in a row (CentOS 5.5, 32 bit) if I am trying to place a VM into a file located in XFS the machine just hangs (the host machine, not the VM). If I place the VM in a raw device or in a file in ext3 all seems to work perfectly. Is that just a coincidence or is there a reason for this madness? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, It's been a few years since I've set up a router... and for some reason I seem to be getting hung up on this one. Does anybody have a sample iptables config file that would incorporate NAT and forwarding for a simple router? Thanks. Boris.

Hello listmates, It appears that system-config-bind has been phased out. Whatever the reasoning was behind that decision - what are we expected to do now? Edit it manually? That is doable, of course, but kind of cumbersome. Does anybody know if there is a tool we are expected to use for that purpose? Thanks. Boris.
