On the CentOS mailing list and Forums, I occasionally see questions relating to accessing Windows shares. Thought I could share my notes on this subject which I put together on a web page: http://toracat.freeshell.org/centos/HowToAccessWin.html It is a short practical guide. I would appreciate receiving comments and suggestions. Akemi

So, I noticed that when adding a service to puppet, puppet is running a chkconfig <service>. However, as far as I can tell, puppet should be running a chkconfig --add <service>, otherwise the symlinks don''t get created from the service in /etc/rc.d/rc6.d back to the service in /etc/init.d. As as a result, the service is not stopped on shut down. I must be missing something

Dear Srs, yum-updatesd-0.9-2.el5 appears that it's not working on freshly installed CentOS 5.2, using: # rpm -qa "yum*" yum-metadata-parser-1.1.2-2.el5 yum-updatesd-0.9-2.el5 yum-3.2.8-9.el5.centos.2.1 yum-fastestmirror-1.1.10-9.el5.centos I see some bugs ([1], [2] and [3]) in the bug tracker, and more info related to other distros like Fedora, etc.. with the same problem.

I''m a first time user that just installed Puppet 3.1.0 over the weekend and hit a road block that I can''t seem to get across. I have a Linux master (Mageia 2) and two Windows 7 clients. I was able to get basic recipes working by putting the resources directly in the node definitions. Now I''m trying to move to the next step and start using classes. I am *not*

I recently enabled yum-updatesd on two identical servers and configured it to notify me of updates via e-mail. This worked fine to start with and it notified me on both machines when the kernel-2.6.18-128.1.10.el5.x86_64.rpm update was released last week. However, today I realised that yum-updatesd was not running and thought it was due to rebooting after the kernel update and that I'd

Hello, Sorry if this is somewhat naive, but I'm a little confused as to what the criteria is for that which will get upgraded automatically by yum and what will not. I see in our logwatch messages from time to time that yum upgraded a bunch of stuff, but I also notice that yum will not upgrade other packages at all (easy example is clamav, but there are others). Can someone

Dear List Members, I am working on a below piece of code: Initially have created pie charts with Enlish labels to present the data for Czech Republic, now however I need to print the label with original Czech fonts. When I copy paste from Word, certain fonts get 'simplified' distorting original spelling. How can solve this problem? Is there a package I can download which will support

Ever since someone told me that one of my servers might have been hacked (not the most recent instance) because I wasn't applying updates as soon as they became available, I've been logging in and running "yum update" religiously once a week until I found out how to set the yum-updatesd service to do the equivalent automatically (once per hour, I think). Since then, I've

I've read that it's not recommended to automatically apply updates via yum-updated on production servers, but I keep encountering servers that have this enabled. Are any of you doing automatic yum updates on production servers in CentOS 5 via yum-updatesd? Have you experienced any negative side effects? The only thing I can think of is if say a client had a custom version of PHP

If the point is to access a specific web site only the remote machine can get to, you can also do it with port forwarding: ssh -L 8000:ip_of_web_site_to_access_from_remote:443 remote_machine and then locally run any browser, and access https://localhost:443 (assuming it's https. If it's plain http, use "http" and 80). Note that you'll be breaking some aspects of https

Hello All! I''ve been running Rails 2.0.2 with Ruby 1.8.6 for the last six months. I developed an application that runs fine on two different servers -- or at least, it used to. I used Mongrel as a development server, but requirements called for using Apache for a production deployment. I found Phusion Passenger (mod_rails) and decided to give it a try. I decided to update my rubygems

CentOS 5.3 New updates available used to be flagged in the (Gnome) desktop notification area, but I don't get them any longer. What could be the problem? yum-updatesd is set up with the default configuration (dbus), and on the machines I changed the notification to email, I do indeed receive these emails.
