similar to: fuse/ntfs 3g for centos 5

Hi, I need to transfer a local raw image to another datacenter. Is there a way to achieve good compression of this image, I heard of tools overwriting unused space with zeros. Is this a good idea? It's an W2k8 image/NTFS. Thx Rainer

I get the following error when I try installing fuse-ntfs-3g even though I have installed fuse-2.7 and fuse-kmdl-2.7 error: Failed dependencies: libfuse.so.2 is needed by fuse-ntfs-3g-1.913-1.el5.rf.i386 libfuse.so.2(FUSE_2.2) is needed by fuse-ntfs-3g-1.913-1.el5.rf.i386 libfuse.so.2(FUSE_2.5) is needed by fuse-ntfs-3g-1.913-1.el5.rf.i386 libfuse.so.2(FUSE_2.6) is

After installing kmod-fuse rpm, I had given "/dev/sda3 /mnt/win ntfs rw,umask=0000,defaults" in the file /etc/fstab. Then I gave mount /mnt/win. But I couldn't copy files from system to the hard disk so I removed kmod-fuse by rpm -e command. I installed fuse-ntfs-3g rpm. Now what are the changes that have to be made on the file /etc/fstab? -------------- next part

I just finished updating my Desktop, from CentOS 5.2 to 5.3 (32 bit). There were a lot of error messages (from sbin/ldconfig ?) about 2 files, in usr/lib/lib ending in .so "is not an ELF file - It has the wrong magic bytes at the start." There were also a lot of messages I believe have to do with SELinux. I'd read the Release Notes and thought I was OK, since this box is dual boot

Hi list, is there any working solution for deduplication of data for centos? We are trying to find a solution for our backup server which runs a bash script invoking xdelta(3). But having this functionality in fs is much more friendly... We have looked into lessfs, sdfs and ddar. Are these filesystems ready to use (on centos)? ddar is sthg different, I know. Thx Rainer

Hi List, I'm looking for an editor with file compare capabilities. Gedit and kate don't seem to do this? Thx Rainer

Pointers? I found a .src.rpm for 2.6.0 and it compiles OK, but when I build ntfs-3g (which is what I really want) against the installed fuse-2.6.0 I still get a dependency failure installing the ntfs-3g RPM which says it wants fuse-2.6.3.

I have a CentOS 5.5 system that is dual-boot CentOS 5.5 and Windows XP w/SP3 formatted with NTFS (for the Windows partition, of course). I have installed fuse (ntfs-3g) to allow read/write access to the NTFS partition from CentOS. No regular user has sudo. What is the best way to limit the access a user logging into the CentOS from mangling or changing data in unwanted areas of the

I have been trying to mount my NTFS hard disk using the CentOS 5.1 Live USB pendrive I created from the LiveCD. I did an "fdisk-l" and see the partition as /dev/sdb1, but when I try to mount it, I get an error stating that NTFS is an unknown filesystem type. I attempted to install the ntfs-3g and fuse rpms, without any success (there were numerous dependancies and could not get libc to

Hi, I am running C6.5 64bit on an USB stick connected to a HP DL360G7; It is usually an ESXi host but eg for firmware updates (not available on SPP) I use this local installation. Problem are the lags and unresponsiveness we are seeing for example when running yum update in the installation phase. The whole system stalls but there is no io in vmstat. From what google tells us, this is a

Hi, the topic is an excerpt of the 5.4 release notes and raises a question. I have a i386 server here, that has been running for nearly two years with xfs module from extras repo. When lookin at the module it was build against 2.6.18-92.1.13.el5. Question is, is it still safe to use this module with 5.4? Or should I switch back to a CentosPlus kmod and an older kernel? Rainer

Hi all, sadly there is no epel tomcat package so far. As per https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1745960 there is no progress for three months. Is there any other third party repository which builds tomcat for centos/rhel 8? Thx Rainer

Hi List, hope this is not too offtopic, but this bothers me and my backup. My backups are tar jobs in cron, eg: 20 23 * * * tar -zcf /mnt/backupInternalHosts/backup/backup.tar.gz /etc /root /home && touch /tmp/state_backup-backup This always sends me an unwanted email with: tar: Removing leading `/' from member names I consider this a bug because this informal message is

Hi, I know, epel has rt3 in version 3.6.x. And - sadly - for version 3.8.x the perl module dependencies are way ahead of what I can find in epel or rpmforge. But we really need some of the 3.8.x series features. So has anybody maybe built those modules + rt3 v3.8.x for C5? Any hint? I really do not want to install f10. :O Thx Rainer

When I tried installing ntfs 3g on CentOS 5 I got an error telling me it needed FUSE >= 2.6 I got FUSE but on attempting to install it it gives the following error: Fuse configure error checking kernel source directory... Not found configure: error: *** Please specify the location of the kernel source with *** the '--with-kernel=SRCDIR' option configure: error:

This is probably a dumb question, but I've looked around and I can't find anything on this. I'm using ntfs-3g now, from rpmforge, to access my M$ Window$ disks for offline backup and other such menial tasks, and I noticed that the ntfs file systems are not mounted automatically, but I have to mount them manually as ntfs-3g devices. I _thought_ when I installed the whole dkms-fuse and

Hello, Does anyone have a centos5 specific howto or setup notes for fuse? I want to use it to mount an xp ntfs drive on my centos5 box. Thanks. Dave.

Hi all, now that EL5.1 is out the big question is when will Centos 5.1 be out. I know the answer, when it's ready. But how is status of the problems described here? http://www.karan.org/blog/index.php/2007/10/29/so_when_is_5_1_due Thx Rainer

Hi, will this update be released by centos? Or because it's no security update it gets a lower priority in the queue? Thx Rainer
