Hi all, I have a task on setting up a cluster of 2 servers for providing ftp service. We use RH's Cluster suite. However the cluster setup is lack of shared network storage, so the /var/ftp/pub is mounted on each server. The cluster is set with Master and Slave configuration (when the master is down, slave serves. and when master is up again, slaves gives up the service back to master). We

I use the following command to sync the home directory on the two computers, however I would like not to send the "dot" files e.g. ".ssh". Can that be done, and if so, how would I construct the command line? /usr/bin/rsync -av -e ssh /home/ 192.168.0.22:/home/ Many thanks....

Hello all. I have 15 or so CentOS servers (now v4.4, I will upgrade them all to 5 when it comes out) and a few windows machines. I am looking to implement a network backup solution using Amanda. I will be backing up 200 gig or so to start, but that will grow. Does anyone have any recommendations on tape drives that will work "out of the box" with CentOS? Thanks, Joe

Hi all, I'm new to rsync and have a problem I cannot resolve even after plowing through the lists. I have an rsync server setup with an rsync client. I am trying to backup a directory structure that is over four levels deep. Rsync does great until it hits that fourth level. Then it errors out for each file in that fourth level similar to this: rsync: recv_generator: mkdir

Hello, This may be a really stupid question, but can a gel type marine battery be used in a UPS? Thanks

I know this is a little off topic (not as usual, dammit!), but I figure at least one of y'all can handle this one. I have tried to configure my CentOS4.4 Plus desktop for samba sharing with the VMWare Windows that runs on it. However, no matter what I've done so far, I can't get the Windows to recognize this machine as a legitimate network destination. Here's my samba

We have about 5 servers spread out throughout the country: 2 Centos 4.4, 1 Red Hat and 2 windows machines- looking for some good ideas for a back-up solution. Our servers hold a lot of data, but only a small portion of it is crucial on any given day. That crucial portion is always changing (for example, this week the crucial files all relate to November- current and previous projects, and the next

I'm a relative newbie to all this so pardon me if the following are all stupid questions. Firstly, I'm setting up a web server and gone from planning to use Ubuntu (due to some familiarity as a desktop at home) to CentOS based on recommendations by experienced webhosters. However now that I looked into CentOS, I find myself at a point where it's transitting to a major new version. So
