Hi I'm thinking about setting up a local / LAN respository for my CentOS, and probably other (Fedora Core) disto's, but have never done it before, so here's some questions: If I setup a repository, can it hold different distro's / architectures & versions? Say for example, CentOS 4 (i386 & x64), CentOS 5.0 & 5.1 (i386 & x64) - will each one have it's own

Hi all If I do a "dig mydomain.co.za" from a Linux server, how do I know which DNS nameserver returns the queries? I seem to have a faulty DNS server, but can't see which one, so I want to find out which nameserver (if there's 4 - ns1.myserver, ns2.myserver, ns3.myserver & ns4.myserver) returns the queries? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers CEO, SoftDux Web:

HVM = fully virtualized. The question is, why are you using fully virtualized domUs?

Hi all I've been thinking about using CentOS on a Dell R200 server and turn it into a firewall / network monitor / traffic shaper in our datacentre, instead of using a dedicated firewall device. One of the devices that I have been looking at, with my limited budget, is the D-Link DFL 860 - http://www.netdefend.eu/Product.aspx?m=15&ref=DFL-860 It provides AV, SPI, VPN, DOS, P2P, etc

Hi all I have a CentOS 5.1 x64 server, running Xen version 3.1.0-53.1.21.el5 & Windows 2003 VM. After doing a software update in Windows (via Remote Desktop), I rebooted windows, but it never came back up. So, I logged into the server via SSH, and destoyed the VM, and recrated it. Yet it doesn''t boot up ( I can''t connect to it via RDP). So, how do I debug it to see

Nah, RHEL 5.1+ supports 32-bit domU (PAE and non PAE) on 64-bit dom0.

I've run into some trouble with a new cPanel VPS, and noticed that it's running CentOS by default, installed via the CentOS http server.

Hi all I want to shrink one of my LVM based domU''s, but don''t quite know how to do it. I have searched the Wiki & HOWTO''s, and they all show you how expand / enlarge a LVM based domU, but not shrinking it. So, I stopped (destroyed) the domU, and then resized it as follows: lvresize /dev/data/cpanel1 -L10GB (It was 100GB), but when I a started it up again, I

I have the 5.x Centos DVD and loaded it. Please be gentle with me, as I'm nominally a FreeBSD kind of guy... :) Anyway, I'm trying to install Postgres and the three libraries in the subject line are missing off the base installation. I figured out how to load gcc using yum, but those libraries aren't there, and I need the former in particular in order to enable SSL for Postgres
