Yum using proxy that requires authentication and a Password that contains the two characters \/ fails normally I can get yum to work with a proxy that requires authentication when required by doing something like http_proxy=http://<my username>:<my password>@<proxy server>:<proxy server port> export http_proxy or by filling in the appropriate information in yum.conf.

Hi Everyone. I am doing some LDAP testing. I have setup a 389 Directory Server on CentOS 5 and using the default schema I have populated it with a couple of users. I then did the configuration on the client that I thought was needed to make it authenticate. To test this I expected to be able to use id <uidNumber> of a user I had defined. But I get id: 1001: No such user id: 5001: No

Hello Everyone I work for a University Department that has a high number of Linux Desktop Users. Currently we provide a users home directory via NFS from a file server. Generally it works well for us, but I have been asked to look at our options for expanding the storage we have available. So I thought one of the first things I had better do is consider are there alternatives to the way we

Hi. I have a company gateway that is connected to a 30/30 Fiber connection, network termination point is a MRV OS-904. It acts as a firewall/router for the DMZ/hosts/lans behind. Software: CentOS 6.9, bare minimum install, all latest patches.

Hi Everyone, I have been trying to setup an NFS v4 File Server but have come across an odd issue. Mounting the /nfs4exports/share appears to be successful and the information displayed about partition size and free space seem correct but if I try to do anything inside the mounted directory the client will just hang. Does anyone have any idea what I am missing?? I have try disabling all

Hi I use yumdownloader occasionally to grab RPMS. One thing that confuses me though is the --source option. I thought this would mean rather than getting the RPM that it would retrieve the source RPM. But it appears this isn't the case. Can anyone explain what this option actually relates to ?

Hi Everyone I am wondering if many people are using software that acts as a password safe. And if so can you recommend any software in particular? I know many people will disagree with this idea, and I myself have always followed the printed list stored in a secure location. But in our particular situation keeping this single list current and correct while ensuring that regular password

Hi People, I know this may seem off topic, but I thought for those of us who might have Debian users generating key pairs that they put on CentOS systems people should be aware that everybody who generated a public/private keypair or an SSL cert request on Debian or Ubuntu from 2006 on is vulnerable http://it.slashdot.org/it/08/05/13/1533212.shtml

Hi, Can anyone else confirm that AllowGroup is no longer an accepted configuration option for openssh-server-4.3p2-29.el5. And is this intended or should I be submitting a Bug Report ? Thanks

Hi People, The Linux Environment I am responsible for is using ssh key pairs to allow access to a number or accounts on a number Linux Servers. I currently have the opportunity to re-design some of this. So I would like to tap into peoples experiences to see what might be some good changes to make. Specifically I have a couple of questions 1. Currently all of the key pairs we are using

Hi People I am setting up some systems with ssh public keys and as part of this I am using the from directive inside .ssh/authorized_keys. Currently I am using the IP address to control the source. eg from="10.0.0.1" but on one CentOS 4 System that is up to date this will only work if I replace the IP with the DNS name of the server. I have verified that DNS is resolving the DNS

Okay sorry about that. No Idea if it will work in CentOS, but is it worth trying to turn off ipv6 for a single nic as as outlined at https://coreos.com/os/docs/latest/network-config-with-networkd.html ?

Hi, If I disable ipv6 via the kernel command line, ipv6.disable=1, then systemd-networkd fails to bring up any interfaces. Removing the option and networking works as expected. Phil.

Hi People, I have downloaded http://dev.centos.org/~tru/kernel-vm/5/RPMS/i386/kernel-vm-2.6.18-53.1.14.el5.i686.rpm <http://dev.centos.org/%7Etru/kernel-vm/5/RPMS/i386/kernel-vm-2.6.18-53.1.14.el5.i686.rpm> but was just wondering if these kernel-vm rpms are in a yum repository. Previous posts to centos.org suggest this, so can someone please let me know what repo it should be coming

Hi, I am trying create a custom udev rule to change the group and permissions on /dev/net/tun. Some research indicated that rather than directly editing the rule in /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules that I should create my own local rules file something like 10-local.rules which contains KERNEL=="tun", NAME="net/%k", OWNER="root", GROUP="vboxusers",
