Hello, I''m testing Btrfs RAID1 feature on 3 disks of ~10GB. Last one is not exactly 10GB (would be too easy). About the test machine, it''s a kvm vm running an up-to-date archlinux with linux 3.7 and btrfs-progs 0.19.20121005. #uname -a Linux seblu-btrfs-1 3.7.0-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Dec 11 15:05:50 CET 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux Filesystem was created with : # mkfs.btrfs -L

someone just pointed out to me that there is a distro called "oracle enterprise linux" which is effectively a re-branded RHEL, so i'm curious -- has anyone here used both centos and OEL and would there be any differences that would be worth caring about? the only thing i can think of that might be worthwhile is that OEL might change some of the default kernel parms thru

ok, given the flurry of responses to my original post, let me see if i have a handle on this as i think i've finally figured it out and, yes, it does make sense. the scenario is that there is a very large software company in the area whose only officially supported linux platform is currently suse. however, they are getting increasing call to have their product run on red hat. for most

(note: i asked this a few days ago but it *appears* that that post was tossed due to getting excessive bounces from my account. so i'm posting it again, apologies if you're seeing it a second time.) over the next several weeks, i'm teaching some courses in RHEL admin but (unsurprisingly) i'll be using centos 5.5. it's a decently-written, 3rd party course, all the generic,

Hello, I'm trying to investigate a problem with dovecot/imap dumping core when connecting connecting mith mutt (everything else works). imap(user at domain): Fatal: master: service(imap): child 31752 killed with signal 11 (core dumped) I managed to create a core file and passed that to gdb. The log is here [1]. I hope this helps - please tell me what else would be needed if not.

does anyone here have pointers or access to courseware that could be used to teach centos (5.4, i believe)? publicly-available, free C/W would, of course, be ideal, but if you have some decent training manuals that you're willing to license on a per-manual basis, i'm still willing to chat. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.

it's been a while since i've played with filesystem encryption so, on centos 5.4 (and other linux distros), is dm-crypt/LUKS considered to be the state of the art WRT encryption? i remember other solutions like loop-aes and others, but what's considered the gold standard these days? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.

i'm sure there's a simple answer to this -- i already understand that newer kernels than the ones shipped with the official release aren't officially supported but there is the elrepo kernel repository here: http://elrepo.org/linux/kernel/el7/x86_64/RPMS/ with a mixture of long-term (lt) and mainline (ml) kernels. i assume that the mainline kernels pretty closely track the latest

i'm just curious -- how many people here are using ACLs as a regular and significant part of their sys admin? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.

Major re-organization of the sgml docs. They are now converted from linuxdoc to docbook and rely on the docbook2x series of tools, so your build environments need to be updated. git tag: xorg-docs-1.4 Changes since xorg-docs-1.3: Adam Jackson (2): Fix distcheck. Bump to 1.4. Alan Coopersmith (2): Update XFixes protocol spec to match XFixes 4.0 Typo fixes in XFixes

at the risk of picking at that scab a bit longer, i'm going to toss out a comment regarding people still waiting for the public availability of centos 5.4. here: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2009-October/083743.html we read: "The last status (from twitter) is 2 days old with the '5.4 is baked! centos internal network will start syncing up today. Release ~ soon!'.

Hello. I'm using Postfix with Dovecot as IMAP, POP3 and LDA. With sieve rules I successfully move mails to specific mailboxes and this is great if accessing the account thru IMAP. However, when accessing thru POP3 I only get mails from Inbox. I wonder if it's possible to get real new mails, regardless of the folder they're in. Thanks for any thoughts. Arthur

Hello, As per a previous reply regarding POP3 I'm now trying to configure the virtual plugin. However I don't really understand how to modify the sql user_query to properly indicate inbox=yes. I created 3 namespaces as per wiki instructions and I've modified the password and user queries as bellow: password_query = \ SELECT email, password, login , concat('*:bytes=',

NEWBIE alert: i'm a linux person, not an asterisk person so i'm certainly capable of handling any linux-flavoured solution you can suggest. here's a note i got from a local company i know (some proper names removed): ===== start ===== Now and again our ISP goes down and when it does give us a hicup, the Asterisk system shuts down (not very forgiving). When it shuts down our phone

yes, it's OT but just in case folks here know someone who might be interested, i'm writing and publishing a course to introduce people to the joys of linux kernel programming: http://www.crashcourse.ca/introduction-linux-kernel-programming/introduction-linux-kernel-programming and, no, it's not free -- six months worth of course will cost you all of $39 (CAD), but the first four

again, from here: http://wiki.centos.org/FAQ/CentOS5 regarding a newer version of PHP, a number of PHP experts that i know of suggest that, if you truly need an up-to-date version of PHP, you should: rpm -ivh http://rpms/famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-5.rpm while remi collet's repo isn't official, it's accepted by numerous developers as a reliable source of newer PHP

I am thinking about building a new host and trying to decide if virt-manager is working on CentOS 8. I thought I saw previously on the mail list that there were some issues but cannot find the thread right now. If anyone has migrated some workloads from 7 and seen any issues let me know. Thanks :)

i'm reading the lowdown on 3rd party repos with respect to centos here: http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories and i have a couple questions and observations. first, the entry for centosplus reads: "Popular packages from this repository include: postfix with database support, a rebuilt kernel with additional drivers & filesystem support, php5 and mysql5."

is it possible to set up NFS on centos 5.5 so that it uses *only* version 4? i tried this not that long ago on fedora and was surprised to see a complaint when i tried to start the server and was told that i was missing required functionality of NFSv1, or something equally weird. i'll check the /etc/init.d/nfs script, but i think what got me into trouble was trying to use the entire set of
