Hi, RH devel kernels from http://people.redhat.com/dzickus/el5/ built against Centos tree are available here: http://fs12.vsb.cz/hrb33/el5/hrb-kernel/stable/x86_64/repodata/ http://fs12.vsb.cz/hrb33/el5/hrb-kernel/stable/i386/repodata/ Regards, David Hrb??

Hello fellow CentOS'ers- I'm trying to install a package from a not-to-be-named repository (privately operated for some proprietary software). They currently have a package I need but offer multiple versions. However, if I simply 'yum install packagename' it defaults to pulling down the most recent package. I would like to pull down the older version of the package but I'm

Is there a process for finding status updates to open bugs within Centos? The particular bug I am talking about is 0002329 http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=2329. This was assigned on 01-20-2008 and, as far as I can tell, there's been no action other than it being acknowledged. I've also searched upstream with RHEL and FC and I cannot seem to find a bug report there though complaints

I may need a strong shot of coffee but I though putting "hide files = /~*/" as follows in the samba config file would hide files with a tilde. [homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = no writable = yes hide files = /~*/ Unfortunately after restarting the server the files are still visible. Regards, Vandaman.

Off course people are going to ask. In my opinion as long as a topic is marked OT, it is preferable to one not marked but one in which the OP has not even done basic research on his problem. One distro had a

I run chkrootkit daily. For the first time I've got reports of a problem - Checking `bindshell'... INFECTED (PORTS: 1008) The page http://fatpenguinblog.com/scott-rippee/checking-bindshell-infected- ports-1008/ suggests that this might be a false positive, so I ran 'netstat - tanup' but unlike the report, it wasn't famd on the port. It was tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:1008

I've had umpteen IPs knocking on this door yesterday. The router blocked them, so it's not a problem, but why that port?

My server is supposed to be using ntp, with nothing changed from the defaults set up by CentOS5. However, daily I see log entries like Total synchronizations 2 (hosts: 2) **Unmatched Entries** sendto(193.6.222.20) (fd=21): Invalid argument: 1 time(s) sendto(141.89.226.2) (fd=21): Invalid argument: 1 time(s) Does this mean that ntp is failing? I assume so, and if so, how do I change

I would like to be able to check my bank account while we are on holiday. I know the bank's site is encrypted from the start - the login page is https and Verisign-trust encrypted - but is there any risk in using public wireless networks for jobs like this? It sounds secure enough, but maybe I'm paranoid.... Anne -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was

I thought I had just about got the old server to the point of being switched off. I have been reading from the dovecot server for a couple of days, and this evening I switched the 'sending' to the new server as well - but I couldn't get anything out. I got: Error while uploading message Could not upload the message dated Wed Feb 1 21:2:56 2006 from Anne Wilson <cannewilson

My LAN is behind a Netgear router, which does NAT. On the CentOS server I have fail2ban running. This morning my router reported 3 different IPs attempting to send UDP packets to port 38950, Since each address is only seen 4-5 times, I presume that fail2ban took over after that. GRC reports that ports are stealthed (port 143 was open, but is now closed), but then: Unsolicited Packets:

The only obstacle now to running this box as the mail server is that I do read and send mail on it occasionally, while working on something. I need gpg-agent, but can't find how to get it. Is it merged into another package, or do I simply have to look at other repositories? Anne

This (CentOS5.1) box is my new imap server. Using system-config-security-level I opened port 143 tcp, and mail is readable throughout the LAN. I want a Roaming account on my laptop so that I can read mail while away from home. I have set up the account in kmail, and I know that that part is correct, as it worked on my old, less-secured, imap server. However, I haven't been able so far

My daughter needs to send me a large file. It appears that it is getting through my ISP, but being rejected on my CentOS mail server. The message she's getting says A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed: anne at localhost SMTP error: 552 5.3.4 Message size exceeds fixed limit

I was having a problem in a shell script that turned out to be cp being aliased to 'cp -i'. Not a showstopper, once you realise it, but it did beg the question as to where this file is. I was told to look in /etc/profile.d, but that doesn't seem to be the case on my CentOS box. I can list aliases, so I know the file exists, but where? Anne -------------- next part

I'm puzzled by such statements as diff /var/clamav/daily.cvd /var/clamav/daily.cvd.rpmnew Binary files /var/clamav/daily.cvd and /var/clamav/daily.cvd.rpmnew differ I thought the point of rpmnew files was so that we could check what has been changed?

I'm asking here because it is the best resource I know for knowledgeable people. The problem in question occurs on my Fedora 9 box and Fedora 10 netbook, while another person, Chris, has the problem on a Mandriva 2009 box. Whatever is causing it, that leads me to think that it's not distro-specific. Both of us are using kmail. Kgpg sees and lists all the keys on my keyring.
