Yes I am running as root. If I try as a user I get the same behavior. Two things here. If on my desktop in a gnome window I run "import -silent -window root screen.png" I get a file. However if I run the command using a shell script on a machine its not working. So in my script I have: export DISPLAY=:0.0 /usr/bin/import -silent -window root screen.png Thanks, Jerry

I see "MANY" of these ::1 - - [13/Oct/2020:10:46:08 -0500] "OPTIONS * HTTP/1.0" 200 - "-" "Apache/2.4.6 (CentOS) OpenSSL/1.0.2k-fips mod_fcgid/2.3.9 (internal dummy connection)" in the log file. This is not me connecting as ::1 is localhost. What is this - how might I stop it ? Thanks Jerry

Hi, Could someone tell me how I'd go about compiling php with mcrypt support from src.rpm? ie. configure -with-mcrypt[=DIR] Is it just a matter of calling rpmbuild --rebuild src.rpm --with=mcrypt ? Cheers, MaZe.

Hi all... Great work on 7.6! I updated a number of boxes - all good! This "one" server I lost connection through the internet or something... Anyway 702 transactions left and its not happy. When I run yum-complete-transaction I get "many" Removing man-db.x86_64 0:2.6.3-9.el7 - ud from the transaction Removing man-db.x86_64 0:2.6.3-11.el7 - u from the transaction Removing

I am having an issue I have not ran into before... I set my box to "auto" login by changing the file: more /etc/gdm/custom.conf # GDM configuration storage [daemon] AutomaticLoginEnable=true AutomaticLogin=silentm TimedLoginEnable=true TimedLogin=silentm TimedLoginDelay=0 [security] [xdmcp] [greeter] [chooser] [debug] It does auto login - however then when I try to VNC into

How can I remove the four items on screen? Applications, Places home trash from the command line? I'd prefer to remove the top panel and bottom panel all together if possible, but they can stay - I just don't want anything showing on the screen. searched all around for kiosk mode gnome3 etc.. not finding anything good for CentOS7. Was able to do this in CentOS 6 can't believe they

Under CentOS 6 I could run the command: /usr/bin/import -window root screen.png to get a screen capture - worked great. On CentOS 7.2.1511 when I run the above command I hear beep beep and the resulting screen.png is just black. Two questions: 1) how can I get the screen shot? 2) how can I disable the beep beep Thanks, Jerry

Is there an easy way or anyway to establish a 128 bit encrypted tunnel between a handful of centos 5.2 boxes? I am not familiar with this at all. Jerry

I am trying to get a remote screen on C7.

How can I define a local use with "@" in the name useradd "bob at myname" gives error. I "need" to have the @ sign in the name -is that possible. Silly reason - the system I am trying to send emails to the linux server has a bug. I'm trying to get around it. Thanks, Jerry

Hi all, I set my sendmail.mc file to have a SMART_HOST entry of mail.xyz.com I do "make" and "service sendmail restart" ... I should be good, but no. :) If I do "host mail.xyz.com" I get the correct address and if I "telnet mail.xyz.com 25" I get a connection. however when I do a test mail - its trying to RELAY to another host. I thought SMART_HOST was

Any Virtualbox on CentOS guru's out there? I only have 1 VM on my linux host. in the update process to virtualbox 6.1.16 my config was lost. When I run Virtualbox my VM does not show.

Hi, I've been trying to install Zimbra Desktop 7 on CentOS 5.5 using the usual perl script provided. The issue is, I get a warning that my system does not have ia32 libs. I dug a bit on google and found out that 'there is no such package as ia32 libs for Centos'. I also tried all the suggested work arounds like glibc & stuff, can anyone shed more light on this? Oh, the zimbra

I was getting MANY emails from XXX.hinet.net - kind of filled my mqueue directory. I stopped sendmail. removed all the files in mqueue, added to sendmail access a REJECT for hinet.net This certainly seems to help - but is that the correct way to take care of this sort of thing? Thanks, Jerry

I was just wondering if there are special tricks people do that compile A LOT on centos? Do RAM disks help or something else I dont about that minimizes your compile time? I presently have and AMD x2 4800+ with 2GIG ram. Just curious if I can reduce any more time out of my compiles. Jerry
