Not directly an answer to your question, but we had so many problems with the certbot in different constellations, that we moved to https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh which works just fine basically everywhere cheers Soeren ?On 05.10.20, 15:18, "CentOS on behalf of Alexander Farber" <centos-bounces at centos.org on behalf of alexander.farber at gmail.com> wrote:

Hi. I have for a while been trying to get my samba 2.2.1a PDC to be a NIS master and still maintain the password sync feature, without any luck. Now I made something that seems to work - but I would like to get your input to see if what I do is ok or it is something I should'nt do. 1: Samba uses passwd to sync the password (not yppasswd) 2: cron runs make in /var/yp every 15 minutes to

Hello, I have two identical CentOS 6.2 machines with stock Postfix package and unchanged config: # rpm -qa|grep post postfix-2.6.6-2.2.el6_1.x86_64 # postconf -n alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases command_directory = /usr/sbin config_directory = /etc/postfix daemon_directory = /usr/libexec/postfix data_directory = /var/lib/postfix debug_peer_level = 2

Hello fellow CentOS-users, on the net there are lots of Spamassassin related HOWTOs - describing how to create a shell script for Postfix and how to install Spamassassin and start its spamd daemon - step by step. Additionally antivirus setups are described... But I have a strong feeling, that this is unneeded on CentOS 6 - because there are already preconfigured stock packages for postfix and

Hello all, I have a RedHat 5.1 system running SAMBA and the machines and users log on properly but no one can select, create, delete or do anything with subdirectories. I checked the logs and it seems that the share names are not being 'made' properly. Is there a setting or problem with 5.1 install that I need to change??? Thanks Paul Farber Farber Technology

I normally try not to ask questions until I have done as much research as possible, and again, this is the case... Just after I thought I had my RH5 samba/nis server working fine, I come across the inability to update nis passwords. >From the server as root: passwd guest1 Changing password for user guest1. New UNIX password: Retype new UNIX password: NIS password could not be changed.

Hi List, A friend of mine recently asked the same question as Heinz T?chler. Since I've already written the code I'd like to share with the list. # x is an object returned by "survfit"; # "smed" returns a matrix of 5 columns of # n, events, median, 0.95LCL, 0.95UCL. # The matrix returned has rownames as the # group labels (eg., treatment arms) if any. smed <-

Hello, with CentOS 6.2 - is it possible to configure OpenSSH daemon to listen on different IPs _and_ ports? I have received a 2nd IP address for my server and have successfully configured by adding the new "/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:1" file. I'd like SSHd to keep listening at the_old_ip:22 but also at the_new_ip:443. The 443 on the_old_ip is already taken by
