Hi, I've recently setup a new server for our public libraries. For the last two years, this has been my first "big" job, since it involves networking eleven small to medium size public libraries. There was a hiccup some time ago when the administration hiring me wanted to do it on their own, but it took them less than two weeks to get the server hacked and lose everything. So

I recently joined that list and wanted to publish a simple link to my technical blog dedicated to CentOS (http://kikinovak.wordpress.com). There's no commercial interest behind it,

Hi, I've been using Conky for some time, a nifty utility to monitor just about anything on the PC. Vital things like CPU, RAM, swap, disks, current song playing in MPD :o) Here's what it looks like : http://www.microlinux.fr/images/bureau_conky.png And with more detail : http://www.microlinux.fr/images/conky_zoom.png Now I wonder... I'd really like to use that to monitor my

Hi, One of our local town halls has asked me to implement a wiki-based website dedicated to ecological farming. The wiki is supposed to host a variety of documents in text, video and audio format. I've never used any wiki engines myself. Is there any one you can recommend in particular ? I'm using CentOS 5 on the server, so I would be glad to use a solution where I don't have to

Hi, At office, we have I ISPs. I want to lightly monitor each link latency in order to decide several routing. For that, I have only one external server: 1 IP, it's an OVH dedicated server. The quick picture is http://s24.postimg.org/n3436z64l/defaul_route.png Default route is via ISP1. If OVH-server pings IP1: - the request will go through ISP1: it's OK - the reply will go through

Niki, Currently Gnome 3 is OK with multiple monitors, especially when run in the "classic mode". Elrepo continues to be the recommended way to install nvidia drivers, nvidia-detect will suggest the correct kmod you need e.g.: yum install nvidia-detect && yum install `nvidia-detect` -- Sent from the Delta quadrant using Borg technology!

Hi, I admit I never gave security that much thought, that is, except the most basic security rules like choosing good passwords, or reasonable file and directory permissions. But now I have to change that, since I'll soon have to setup a dedicated production server for our public libraries. I wonder where to begin. I would say first thing is get a series of "auditing" tools

Hi, I'm running a medical application on a local network, using MySQL as a database. The application can also connect to remote hosts, so the idea is to install it on one machine acting as a "server", and then install it on the other machines on the LAN, but configure these to use the database on the "server". I guess before doing that, I'll better try and get

Hi, I'm using CentOS 5 on all my computers here (work + home) and I'm very satisfied with it. Some time ago I purchased a 300 GB external hard drive to store films, music, pictures and documents. Since there's no Windows machine around here (small South French village, town hall and public library use Linux :o)), I replaced the FAT filesystem on the disk by an ext2 filesystem.

Hi, When I install a CentOS server/desktop/workstation, I usually start from scratch with a barebone minimal installation, then add packages as needed. Some machines (like dedicated servers in a datacenter) come preconfigured by the hosting company, so I thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to start stripping that stuff first. Here's a little script I wrote, which essentially strips down

Hi, My workstation is currently running Slackware Linux 14.1 64-bit, and I'm considering replacing that by CentOS 7, which I've already installed on my laptop. The PC has an NVidia GeForce GT 520 video card with two 19'' monitors attached to it. I'm using the proprietary 'nvidia' driver. I vaguely remember having read somewhere that RHEL/CentOS 7 with GNOME 3 had

Hi, I just set up a web server... and my bandwidth is being eaten by some chinese folks trying to brute-force-ssh their way into the machine. Is there a simple way to banish either single IP addresses or, maybe even better, whole IP classes ? I know it's feasible with iptables, but is there something more easily configurable ? Cheers, Niki

Hi, I'd like to use SSH without password so I can use it in scripts (for example in combination with rsync to do backups). I have Carla Schroder's "Linux Cookbook" and I'm trying out the various receipts, but the one for SSH without a password doesn't work. The book is slightly dated, and I wonder if SSH included in CentOS works differently. Any suggestions? Niki

Hi, I'm using the preconfigured firewall that comes with CentOS 5. I configure it with system-config-securitylevel-tui, close all ports except SSH, and then open only the ones I need. Right now, on one of my desktops, I've installed AMSN, which requires opening a series of ports. I've configured the app to use ports 7000 to 7010 (TCP and UDP). When running

Too bad it's not in English. It would be interesting to follow your posts as you discover CentOS more and more, given that I also used Slackware. >There's no commercial interest > behind

Hi, What's the best (cleanest, easiest, whatever) way to install the proprietary NVidia driver on CentOS 5.5 ? Usually I'm using the RPMForge 3rd party repo and compile the odd missing package myself from a Fedora SRPM. But the nvidia packages look a bit like a mess. DKMS has errors in the startup script (looking for a nonexistent log_action_msg and the likes), so I wonder if it's

Hi, I'm currently fiddling with G4U (Ghost for Unix), and I need to setup a local FTP server in order to get it to work. # yum groupinstall "FTP Server" --> installed vsftpd Here's what I'd like to do : * no anonymous access * only one user (user 'install' / pass 'install') The machine I'm installing it on has a static IP ok

Hi, I'm currently busy finishing "Linux aux petits oignons", a practical introduction to Linux, aimed primarily at the frustrated Windows user. This is the first of two volumes, it's written in french, and all examples in the book are based on CentOS. (Note: looks like I'll have to update some screenshots to 5.3 :oD) Usually the first question that arises is: why not
