Hello fellow CentOS'ers- I'm trying to install a package from a not-to-be-named repository (privately operated for some proprietary software). They currently have a package I need but offer multiple versions. However, if I simply 'yum install packagename' it defaults to pulling down the most recent package. I would like to pull down the older version of the package but I'm

Hi, all. How can i fetch mails in Spam directory by MUA (Such as Thunderbird) via POP3? Thanks very much. -- Best Regards. Zhang Huangbin - OpenBSD 4.2 -release, i386. - RHEL 5.1 Client

My laptop is a Thinkpad T20 running CentOS 5.1 The reason it is running CentOS at all is because Fedora Core 6 was workable on it, but Fedora 8 was a complete dog. Anyway - with all the new desktop stuff in CentOS 5.2 I'm wondering if I would be happier just leaving it at 5.1 rather than letting it update to 5.2. Will 5.1 continue to get security fixes if I leave it at 5.1 or do I need

Is there a process for finding status updates to open bugs within Centos? The particular bug I am talking about is 0002329 http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=2329. This was assigned on 01-20-2008 and, as far as I can tell, there's been no action other than it being acknowledged. I've also searched upstream with RHEL and FC and I cannot seem to find a bug report there though complaints

Greetings, Today I''ve been working out how to begin using Capistrano and so far I''m impressed. Even in my situation, learning Rails and deploying to a single server, it''s incredibly helpful. I do have one small question though: In using Subversion I''ve used the "ignore" feature to ignore my local database.yml file, because my local database and

Is there any "formal" mechanizism by which after a yum update , and kernel change that "drivers" can automatically be recompiled and a service restarted? Do I need to make my own? Thanks, Jerry

On one of my machines yum hung up while installing the updates and could not be interrupted or killed. I rebooted the machine the next day, but now a 'yum update' reports: Error: Missing Dependency: openssh = 3.9p1-8.RHEL4.12 is needed by package openssh-askpass-gnome and Error: Missing Dependency: rpm = 4.3.3-13_nonptl is needed by package rpm-build even though rpm -q says those

OK sorry to hammer the list but one more question - having almost got the drives mirrored and happy - since I have created a custom initrd that has the raid1 drivers in it, do I now have to tell yum to ignore kernel updates? Will the stock kernel render me unbootable? Actually I am not 100% sure the initrd I created # mkinitrd -f --preload=raid1 /mnt/tmp/initrd-`uname -r`.img `uname -r` is

I have asked myself over the years... just what happens during the update process? For instance, the latest updates included updates to php. I'm wondering if apache is restarted or reloaded to read the new php updates? More broadly... if this is done, is it done pretty much for every interrelated update, I guess with the exception of kernel updates? Thanks for all the hard work. Best,

Hi Gang- I just installed Cent 4.4 using the server only CD.

Hi - I used yum to update CentOS 4.6. After the reboot after the upgrade, the file /etc/redhat-release still indicates I'm at CentOS 4.6. The lastest release of CentOS 4 is CentOS 4.7. So how do I use yum to upgrade from 4.6 to 4.7? Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- Ken -- Article. VI. Clause 3 of the constitution of the United States states: "The Senators and

Hi. I have a CentOS 4.2 server running. I've just experience that it stops responding (http, ssh) when doing yum update pam xorg-x11 gnupg This has happened two times in a row, so I'm curious if anyone has experienced anything like this? Could it be yum or should I look for the explanation elsewhere? [root at machine ~]# yum update pam xorg-x11 gnupg Setting up Update Process Setting

Hi. I had to update the BIOS of a Silicon Image 3512A Serial ATA controller. I''m not using RAID. When I run the updater program (updflash.exe), it asks me to choose flash memory from a list, something like: AMD Am29F010B (1 Megabit), AMD Am29LV01B (1 Megabit), etc. How can I find out which is flash memory of the controller? Thanks Marcelo

hey guys.. I'm continually seeing the following error although I've got the latest/greatest yum RPM from various CentOS 5.2 repos (mirrors.kernel.org most recently). is there possibly something wrong with the RPM's checksum somewhere upstream? note: I've already regenerated our own mrepo server various times and refreshed the metadata on my yum clients as well. ******* ~# yum

I'm looking at this document to convert RHEL4 systems to Yum and setup an updates repository. http://sial.org/howto/yum/ Which version of yum would you recommend for that? What would be the dependencies that need to be installed? Any guidelines for installing Yum on RHEL4 without breaking the RPM dependencies and stuff (and with minimal changes to the system)? The document recommends

I have an Infortrend RAID box I'd like to see as one big 6TB partition, but I only can get 2.2TB partitions to work. I was trying to do this with an Adaptec controller but apparently they are only (any of them) 48 bits wide. Does anybody have a working system for SCSI/Centos over 2.2TB?
