I'm not sure what has happened but for some reason my CentOS 4 system is showing me using default threads?? # getconf GNU_LIBPTHREAD_VERSION linuxthreads-0.10 # uname -rimpv 2.6.9-42.0.10.EL #1 Tue Feb 27 09:24:42 EST 2007 i686 athlon i386 I could have sworn it used to show: NPTL 2.3.4 Like a couple other machines. Any ideas what might have changed this or how I get it back??? the devel

Which is better? Why? I know yum is the official update mechanism here and in Fedora Core, but that doesn't make yum better than up2date any more than Windows NT was better than OS/2. Let's try to keep the discussion objective:-) I'm asking, hoping for some insights into why RH might (apparently) be moving to yum in preference to up2date (yum is now used within Anaconda). Other

Hello, I see manage of firewall in CentOS (called security), and seems difficult to manage, not enough powerful. I am searching a middle term between scripts of iptables to manage and Security manager of CentOS. I know FireStarter, another similar? -- Devel in Precio http://www.pas-world.com

Hi, I'll need to buy a new wireless card. I need a recommendation for PCMCIA wireless card that simply works with CentOS out of the box. By "works out of the box", I mean that it doesn't need ndis wrapper (or whatever it is called), kernel hacks, or whatever. Thanks

Kudzu is not recognizing my Atheros card. Actually I was having this problem with the plus kernel and I fell back to 2.6.9-34.0.2 Running on ethernet until I can figure out what to update.

I've just had a problem on one of my x86_64 boxes with openssl package. I have an 32-bit only application that requires openssl libraries. When I attempted to install openssl.i686 (in addition to already present openssl.x86_64), it failed. The rpm complained about conflicting files (they were all manpages), and I needed to use --force option to install the thing. The good folks

I have searched the bugzilla and seamonkey has bugs when using "-remote openurl(www.google.com)" it always opens a new window. Mozilla did not have this problem. How can I continue to use the old mozilla? Both for system updates and for new 4.4 installs. I need the -remote functionality to not open new windows. Thanks, Jerry

I tracked down a createrepo rpm "for RHL 7.x, AS 2.1" etc (hosted by Dag), but it's uninstallable. Eventually I managed to create an rpm from the source (actually, that's fairly easy when onw knows to say "python2"), but python-urlgrabber has completely defeated me. According to Dag, the problem is that "upstream" doesn't see the need to support

Hi. Running Samba 3.0.20 on Slackware 10.2. I cannot hide my unix dot files (.bash_history) using the 'hide files' or 'veto files' settings: hide files = /.*/ { or just .* } Also, how do I get rid of the printer folder in the top level of my share? -- Peter __________________________________________________________ Find your next car at http://autos.yahoo.ca

Not sure where to ask this, I've been googling and not finding much that is helpful. At work I've got a multi-threaded program targeted at Linux. It compiles on RHEL 2.1 and 3, and is targeted at 2.1, 3, and 4. UP until today, the binary built on 3 has worked fine on 4. But on RHEL4 update 4 it dies a horrible death in pthread_create. I have reproduced the problem on Centos 4.4, where I

Hi, Does CentOS 5 / RH 5 ship with a similar windows active directory and able to support windows workstations? I've of heard OpenLDAP and FDS. Does windows support those? regards

Hi I'm hosting a forum (phpbb) with more than 3500 users with centos 4.3. The forum admins would like to send an email to its (3500) users. I configured phpbb to use smtp (postfix-2.1.5-4.2.RHEL4.mysql.centos4) to send the email. I raised the max destination limit from 1000 to 5000, and made a test. Here the disaster began: Majority of the users received from 20 to 50 emails. Looking at the

A user has asked us to find out who is changing one of their files and how it is being changed. I came up with the script below: #!/usr/sbin/dtrace -s #pragma D option quiet BEGIN { printf("\n Timestamp gid uid pid ppid execname function current directory file name\n\n"); } syscall::open:entry,

Wow! With all the conversations here, and some things on my system, I am seriously thinking of taking another drive, install 4.4 on it, and then move my /home partition (I planned for such eventualities by putting /home on its own partition). Couple of questions: I did my current build with a ks.cfg on a floppy. Can I use the same information for 4.4 as I did for 4.3? That is none of
