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

It turns out that if you specify filesystem type `auto' in /etc/fstab, updatedb (the thing which updates your `locate' database) ceases to work. Here's the contents of my /etc/updatedb.conf: PRUNEFS="devpts NFS nfs afs proc smbfs autofs auto iso9660" PRUNEPATHS="/tmp /usr/tmp /var/tmp /afs /net" export PRUNEFS export PRUNEPATHS deleting the `auto' entry

And it is fast! And big! And louder! What is? The new CentOS mail server is, which coincidentally also hosts the mailing lists you are reading right now. After three short hours and (AFAICS) no lost mail we now have the following situation: The mailq on the old mail server now is empty, while the new one is already fighting with stale dns info, unknown users, deferrals and so on. Normal

I converted a physical maschine running CentOS 4.6 to a Xen VM on a CentOS 5 host. Almost everything was running when I decided to rsync /lib and /usr a while later in order to get updated files and get the one or two non-working programs to work. There are differences because of the xenU kernel I didn't think about. I forgot to exclude rpm database and /lib/modules. Because the synced

I created my first Xen VM that didn't use a static IP address. It grabs an IP from the 198.168.122.0 subnet (from I don't know where). I would rather want it to use my DHCP server.

I'm new to streaming or music hearing over the wire, I still prefer my old-fashioned stereo equipment :-) But a friend asked me to setup a shoutcast server for him, so I went out and installed it, played a bit with it and didn't like it. So I looked for an open source alternative and found Icecast. Installed fine, works fine. But there is one thing which puzzles me and I hope someone

Is anyone using successfully a specific rpm of Dovecot 1.0.something? There's nothing on dag and a few on rpmfind (for Fedora Core), but I don't know if they'd work. The one coming with Centos 4 (0.99.11) has quite a few bugs and I'd like to put an upgrade on top of it.

I have a machine on CentOS 5 with two disks in RAID1 using Linux software RAID. /dev/md0 is a small boot partition, /dev/md1 spans the rest of the disk(s). /dev/md1 is managed by LVM and holds the system partition and several other partitions. I had to take out disk sda from the RAID and low level format it with the tool provided by Samsung. Now I put it back and want to reassemble the array.

We are serving the mp3s with .nsv endings since that is what the oddcast plugin seems to send by default when mp3 is

Hi all, Just found out that the Poweredge R300 cant even load the CentOS 5.2 64bit installer. Had to revert to Ubuntu. Seems its a driver problem. Pity, but does this kind of case apply to many other servers? --- OSCC MAMPU MyMeeting Version 2.0 Release http://knowledge.oscc.org.my/solution-areas/application/mymeeting

The installed php on CentOS/RHEL is the CGI version. This means I should be able to get command line arguments with $GLOBALS[''argv''] or $_SERVER[''argv'']. That''s how the php documentation tells and how it works f.i. on Suse. However, on CentOS I get them only when I use the -n switch to php (no php.ini). The problem with -n is that php cannot find

Since my power problems that resulted in a re-install I have a problem which I've failed to locate up to now.

Dear Friends, I have few questions. 1. I have a device on which I have installed CentOS 5.2 as an operating system. Now I want to sell this device. Will there be any issue ? points to keep in mind: a. There are no changes in OS. (it is just a stripped down image of original OS) b. I have installed few generic user space applications of my own installed in that OS. I do not want to violate

I'm having a problem with WMP and icecast 2.2.0. When people try to connect it buffers the feed really slow and people never go get audio. I've tried connecting over the LAN and it does the same thing.

Hey all, Since moving a 4.3 x86-64 install from a single athlon64 to a new dual core AMD cpu it would appear that cool'n quiet is having trouble as is shown in the system logs; powernow-k8: ignoring illegal change in lo freq table-2 to 0x2 powernow-k8: transition frequency failed Any ideas ?

Hi, I have a CentOS 3 server that I need to update to MySQL 5 + PHP4. I downloaded and installed the MySQL client and server RPM packages for Red Hat 3, including the Shared Compatibility Libraries which provide /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.10, .12, .14 and .15, which seems to be the recommended way of upgrading a MySQL 3 installation. I then went on to recompile PHP 4.4.7, which worked

Hi, I'm looking for a monitoring system that support snmp v3. I want to monitorize linux servers and network switches. Currently, I am trying to use zabbix, but sadly, it lack at present features that I need. For example, I want to get reporting screens with data and graphs from network switches, I'd like to configure one only port of a given switch and that is used as templates for the

Starting up sendmail I get: Starting sm-client: can not chdir(/var/spool/clientmqueue/): Permission denied Program mode requires special privileges, e.g., root or TrustedUser. I assume the user used for sm-client is smmsp. However, that user has /var/spool/mqueue as homedir and I added him to the trusted users list. FYI, that user has disabled login (which should be okay) and the group has a

What happened????? Where is slocate? what package did I not install? Or is there something newer and better?
