Hi, was wondering if there exists an RPM somewhere to a system monitoring package which I can use to install on a centos server. I'm using serverstats for my other gentoo boxes and it works great(and simple) I can't seem to locate RPMS for serverstats for Centos. Thanks

What's the easiest path to having my Atheros wireless cards supported, particularly in C5? In the past, I've chosen to download source and build my own, but that's become a little tiresome. At one point, OpenSUSE was the easy option, but since 10.1 it's dropped madwifi. -- Cheers John -- spambait 1aaaaaaa at coco.merseine.nu Z1aaaaaaa at coco.merseine.nu Please do not

After applying all the updates, and configuring for the rpmforge repo, I used yumex to install dkms and the dkms-ipw3945, ipw3945-firmware, and ipw3945d rpms. lsmod|grep ipw shows: ipw3945 180391 1 ieeee80211 33417 1 ipw3945 and dmesg)grep

Sunday I updated my kernel to 128.1.16 (I had to reboot so it was time to update). No problems with wireless in my home. Monday I started traveling to IEEE 802 plenary, and I have lost my wireless numerous times needing to reboot. The symptom is the radio light goes off. Back before the kernel update, this would happen sometimes at home while on battery, and I would just press the

A group has put together a marketing program attempting to get some cash together for Linux to get a sponsorship sticker on an Indy 500 car. CentOS is on the list of folks who have contributed.

Hi, I just purchased a new ThinkPad R61i since my R40 died. I previously ran CentOS 4 on my old one, but have loaded CentOS 5 on the new one. I'd like to add whatever I can regarding my hardware. I followed the directions for adding a laptop page, but I was never promoted to enter any information after choosing the laptop template. I did login with my username first as well. The page would

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi guys, Someone on the list today was asking about diskless clients. I have a guide written for doing diskless clients across NFS and PXE.

Or suggest

Hi, all. How appropriate would a visualization and desktop "prettification" page be? I know like myself a lot of people use CentOS not only as their server, but also as their main desktop system. This page could be for used for adding desktop magic programs, tips, tricks, and visualizations. I was going to write a guide for installing and using Conky, if so.

BackupPC released 3.2.0 as a stable version a few weeks ago. The most current release is 3.1.0 in the testing repository. Are there any plans that this will be updated to 3.2.0 in the repo some time down the road? Also, will the BackupPC package be moved out of testing and into extras ever? Or are there reasons behind this that are more complicated, making it not "stable" to be in

Hi, due to some idiot not being able to configure his Exchange server correctly, this list has been swamped by loads of duplicate mails. There were still several hundreds of mails awaiting delivery to this list. I have removed all of those from the mail queue - so if you are missing a mail you have sent, please resubmit it, it probably was lost while I cleaned the queue as I had no way of

Hi, everyone. I wrote a guide for installing and configuring BackupPC on a CentOS host using rsync as the primary backup method. As best as one can proof read their own writing, I did so, but please read through and feel free to correct and change any typos. <http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/BackupPC> Regards, Max

I am using stored configs to manage my nagios host and services checks and I have run into a problem that I have been unable to solve. When the stored configs are purged from puppet the nagios server correctly removes them from the services and hosts file but does not notify the nagios service and instead throws an error. So the entries are still there and nagios still reports on them until
