In the context of this discussion I would appreciate any feedback the list might have on this article I wrote for my new company. http://otternetworks.de/tech/rhel-centos-brief/ I for one welcome our Redhat overlords. I think they will provide better governance which should give Centos better credibility as an Enterprise, community supported operating system. On 4 April 2015 at 17:17, Lamar

It?s interesting in your world, where ?broken? is ?functions exactly as it is documented to work? If you want it to match subdirectories then you should add to the logrotate, or add another one yourself for each subdirectory. It?s not hard, and it?s certainly not broken. It does what you tell it to do. On Sep 24, 2015, at 6:33 AM, Andrew Holway <andrew.holway at gmail.com> wrote: > Hmm,

Actually, doing what logrotate suggests causes other problems. We don't have this problem on any other system so I am keen to understand the root of the issue rather than start messing around with the default permissions of the log directories. logrotate only matches /var/log/nginx/*log - /var/log/nginx/access.log & /var/log/nginx/error.log On the server where we have problems we have

Which manual?

Hmm, don't you just love changing terminology! I've been using HSM systems at work since '99. BTW, DMAPI is the Data Management API which was a common(ish) extension used by amongst others SGI and IBM. Back to lvmcache. It looks interesting. I'd earlier dismissed LVM since it is block orientated, not file orientated. Probably because my mental image is of files migrating to

I think, this SIG would/should care about hardening CentOS itself as a system not a complete environment (proxies, firewalls, etc.) The examples of the opener show this. Something else could be integrity checking possibly. I imagine a tool/script that could apply hardening stuff. Regards Tim Am 22.

A VLAN is basically a 4 byte "tag" that gets injected into the packet header when the packet enters the VLAN network. When we trunk a VLAN we say to the switch "pass packets on VLAN x but

Does anyone know how to stress test samba without getting a whole room of people to login to all the computers at once ? perhaps some kind person has coded up a nice app that can be run on the server ?? just curious..

Hi guys, Not sure how to diagnose this problem however i have recently upgraded one of my schools sites from gentoo to freebsd which moved us from samba 3.0.14 to 3.0.21b and the first thing I noticed was when the students came to login if they all logged in at once the performance of login was crippled to a near standstill! As a test i swapped in the gentoo box and forced the upgrade to

Almost everyone here has probably read this by now. If so, move along, nothing new here. But just in case you haven't, please take the time to read this. Here it is, in their own words: what Redhat thinks of Centos, and it's plans for the future of Centos. Can you read between the lines? In this case, it isn't very hard to do, IMHO. community.redhat.com/centos-faq

I think there may be some confusion here. By HSM I was referring to Hierarchical Storage Management, whereby there are multiple levels of storage (fast+expensive <-> slow+cheap) and files migrate up or down. Originally it was used to keep data on tape with the metadata residing on disk though it has been expanded to allow a SAS/SATA hierarchy. Quite where PKI comes in I'm not sure,

Thank you everyone. OK, the mystery deepens, I guess. The machine does need to support several VLAN's, it is currently on a trunkport (8021q encapsulated), it made it into the ARP table - which I specifically tested for by physically unplugging the table, clearing the ARP table and plugging it back in. The ARP table currently looks like this: hq#show arp Protocol Address Age (min)

Ok, great I have an rc-local working but now I have a problem that Jenkins is starting up before / during the rc-local is running. Jenkins is shipping with an init script. I want to put a "Before=jenkins.service" in rc-local but Jenkins doesnt have a service file.... How can I ensure that rc-local is running before the Jenkins init?
