Anyone familiar with the selinux policy for the amanda backup software package? I'm getting lots of data not being backed up. For example, under /home there are 2 directory trees owned by root. Those get backed up, user home dirs do not. No AVC denials nor messages in /var/log/messages or journalctl log. But if I turn off selinux enforcing, or set amanda_t type to permissive, complete

My system is 7.2.1511. When I run "yum update", it wants to install about 900 packages total. Most are labeled just "el7". A few "el7_1" and a lot are "el7_3" or 7.3. None are 7.2. I'm not surprised when I see 50-100 packages needing an update. But 900? And none specific to the installed system? My last update, of 4 packages, was Dec 31, 2016. I

My nightly logwatch report had a never before seen section last night, "barracuda spam firewall". I have not problem with the emails it noted as being rejected. But I've always thought of "barracuda" as a commercial product. I have neither configured nor enabled any barracuda software and "yum list '*barrac*'" comes up empty. What is this? Jon -- Jon

On a 7.2 desktop system I see irregular attempts to start the fingerprint authentication daemon "fprintd". One of the messages is "D-Bus service launched with name: net.reactivated.Fprint" This fails as there is no fingerprint device. fprintd.service is disabled. Without a fingerprint device, is this software needed. Yum removal (aborted) shows no packages dependent on

Hi list, another question about bacula, but this time about restoring backups. I've a server that I must backup every day. My plan is: from mon to sat incrimental backup and on sunday full backup. When I will perform a restore I must restore from last valid full backup and then all valid incremental backup from last backup to specific date. This server has aweb managed application where

On a CentOS 7 system I'm trying to install lightdm. Yum says it requires "glib2(x86-64) >= 2.50.3". glib2 2.46 is installed but I have not found a 2.50 version.

Hello, I have a CentOS VM with only one disk on a Xenserver. The disk has 2 partitions: /dev/xvda1 -> /boot /dev/xvda2 -> a physical volume for LVM I added 5GB to this disk via Xencenter to extend /dev/xvda2. Usually I just have to do "pvresize /dev/xvda" to have the additional space added to the disk. But for some reason it does not work for this disk. [root ~]# pvresize

I think something along these lines appeared before but I was unable to find them. I'm on a 7.6 system, been running clamav and amavisd-new since 6 days with little problem. On a recent reboot, clamd at amavisd does not start up and fails manual start. The problem seems to be the missing socket that connects the pair, "/var/run/clamd.amavisd/clamd.socket". I believe this should

A friend runs 6.8 but would like to add postscreen to his email server. It is provided with postfix version 2.8 and up. The newest postfix for 6.8 is 2.6.x. Any likelyhood it will be further updated? Or is there another source for newer postfix versions for CentOS 6.8? Similar query for the clamav db, now at 0.99.1 with 0.99.2 out for quite some time. Jon -- Jon H. LaBadie

After a recent large update, firewalld's status contains many lines of the form: WARNING: COMMAND_FAILED: '/usr/sbin/iptables... Checking iptables.service status shows it to be masked. I realize that firewalld uses iptables, but should it be enabled and started as a service? Jon -- Jon H. LaBadie jcu at labadie.us 11226 South Shore Rd. (703) 787-0688 (H)
