Hi, I have CentOS 5 installed, and I'd like to read the RHEL 5 Deployment Guide in french. The online version seems to be available in english only. There's an RPM package on my system: # rpm -qa | grep -i depl Deployment_Guide-fr-FR-5.0.0-19.el5.centos Deployment_Guide-en-US-5.0.0-19.el5.centos Now what does the package consist of? 'rpm -ql' on the package shows a series of

Folks I have encountered a situation with YUM that isn't what I expected. Let's suppose I want to install a group, call it G. My first question would be -- is the group already installed. Realize all of this is scripted. So, I use yum groupinfo and I see the list of installed groups, and those not yet installed. If group G is in the list of installed groups, one would think that

Hi, The subject says it all. I'm currently fiddling with CentOS to become comfortable with it. Starting from a minimal system (everything unchecked during install), I wanted to have a reasonable set of build tools. Roughly the equivalent of Debian's 'apt-get install build-essential'. I tried yum groupinstall "Development Tools", which resulted in a total of 108 MB

The main difficulty in enabling that is making sure that puppet doesn''t run ''yum groupinstall'' (or ''yum groupupdate'') on every run. To avoid that,

Hi, On a minimal (e. g. without X) server install, one of the first things I do is add 'vga=788' to the 'kernel' line in /boot/grub/menu.lst, so I can use the framebuffer in 800x600 mode and have a better readability in console mode. However, I tried this on my minimal CentOS 5 install, and right after GRUB, the screen just blanks. I add that this (test) machine ran maybe a

Hi all, I have a question related to yum groupinstall. I just tried a: yum groupinstall "MySQL Database" I expected that I would end up with a MySQL Database server, but it installed a bunch of .rpms *except* mysql-server. No big deal, I'm just curious if it was intended this way or not, that's all. Thank you and, Have a nice evening everyone, Alex

Nicolas, Thank you!? But I am Dyslexic and very mono-linguistic; at least I could read the actual commands, if not all the wonderful comments...

Hi, I have CentOS 5 with the XFCE-4.4 window manager installed. (BTW, I've tried many XFCE-centered distros before, and CentOS offers by far the cleanest implementation). Two questions for that. 1) I've seen various HOWTO's about how to display Samba shares with the Thunar file manager. Did anyone manage to do this with CentOS? 2) Is there some HOWTO about configuring that nice

1. There are updates to CentOS-4Beta for the i386 and x86_64 arches. The following RPMS have been changed: a. createrepo-0.4.2-1.noarch.rpm - This is an update from the upstream maintainer. b. yum-2.1.13-1.c4.noarch.rpm - This is an update from the upstream maintainer. c. firefox-1.0-6.centos4.3.i386.rpm - The original build did not strip the library files of unnecessary symbols, causing

I did a minimal install and then with yum groupinstall, installed http, ftp and samba servers. However the gui server settings are not displayed for these servers. Is there a package that I need to install or do I need to change a setting(s) in a file? In reading "man yum" I did not see a way to find out what rpm's are installed with each group, or maybe I just did not

Hi, Here's my video card: $ lspci | grep -i vga 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV15 [GeForce2 GTS/Pro] (rev a3) Until now, I've used it on Slackware (10.0, 10.2, 11.0) and Debian (Sarge, Etch), and I've always managed to set it up fine. First, I checked if there were any precompiled nvidia drivers in the various repos (rpmforge, ...), but there seemed to

Hi, I'm currently reading chapter 13 of the RHEL Deployment Guide, and taking some notes. I have a few minor questions: /etc/sysconfig/network According to the doc: "This file specifies routing and host information for all network interfaces."

Hi, I want to slowly migrate from Debian to CentOS, so I setup a multiboot on my main machine. There's a Debian Etch install on /dev/hda, and GRUB is also installed on the Debian side. On /dev/hdb, I have CentOS 5. I fdisked the drive manually, then chose manual partitioning during install. The setup for CentOS is: hdb1 -> swap hdb2 -> /boot, ext2 hdb3 -> / , ext3 After
