Hi All, I have a CentoS 5.3 Xen Instance at Mosso. I need to run ColdFusion and I have in the past successfully made everything work, but not on Linux rather Windows. I just cannot get Apache and CF talking. I added mod_jrun22, When I try to serve a CF file, I am asked to download binary data. I added .cfm and .cfml to Directory Index for /var/www/html in httpd.conf and nothing still.

Hello, I have a new Mac Pro with 16gb of RAM. I was thinking that I could setup a XEN Server for my software development environments and be able to SSH or VNC into the instances from my mac book. Has anyone run XEN on a Mac Pro yet? Work? Issues? My hosting provider (Mosso (RackSpace Cloud)) uses XEN and I love being able to create instances from a browser, allot additional memory,

Hi Guys, My Server at Mosso has more than doubled in bandwidth over the last week. Mosso recommended getting an analyzer tool to tell me why. What can you guys recommend, easy to install and informative? Thanks! -Jason

Hi All, How does one create a cron job that runs commands like: /usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -config=xxx.com -update /usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -config=yyy.com -update Say every 15 mins? -Jason

Hi All, I want to build a dedicated firewall/router as I am launching a NPO and I can host this in my garage. (Comcast offered me a 100 x 20 circuit for $99/mo with 5 statics) I used to run Untangle, but as of version 9, you are forced to use their build in protocol policies versus the firewalling I am used to (Deny All and then opening holes for specific IP's, etc). There are so many

Hi All, So my electricity bill is through the roof and I need to pair down some equipment. I have a CentOS 6.5 Server (a few TB, 32gb RAM) running some simple web stuff and Zimbra. I have 5 static IP's from Comcast. I am considering giving this server a public IP and plugging it directly into my cable modem. This box can handle everything with room for me to do more. Doing this would allow

Hi All, Cent OS 5.3. I need to install the gcc toolchain, but what yum packages is this? I need to compile ProFTPD, etc, etc. I tried yum install gcc, what else? -Jason

So, the more I look at various ways to lay out my infrastructure, the more I am thinking about specs for hardware. Starting with firewalling. How does one determine the specs for a firewall? What I mean is: 1. motherboard/CPU - p4? Dual-Core? Intel i3, i5, i7? 2. RAM? 4gb? 8gb? More? 32gb? 3. Obviously GB Nics! I am bring about 300gb of traffic a month right now and I expect that to

Hi All, What are my e-mail serving options? I need to host POP, IMAP and SMTP. I must admit that non-windows e-mail hosting has always been a chore for me. I remember QMail and QPopper IIRC. -Jason

CentOS 6.4, clean install. Zimbra 8.0.3 I am behind a PfSense box using a virtual IP.

I am trying to setup a centos 7.1 vncserver I cannot believe they went from a relatively easy process in 6 to the "crazyness" that is 7. I did the following: yum install tigervnc-server cp /lib/systemd/system/vncserver at .service /etc/systemd/system systemctl daemon-reload edit /etc/systemd.system/vncserver at .service

Hi All, What tips does everyone have on hardening a CenOS Server that is running web, e-mail, ssh, ftp, mysql, coldfusion and will be processing payments from www? -Jason

My 12 year old wants to learn more about servers and has memorized a lot of commands like ls, chmod, du, etc. He wants to have his own domain and server on the web and I have enough Static IP's, so why not foster this interest. I have an old ultra sparc 5. Are there any CentOS versions that support Sparc? Or recommendations? I know OpenBSD does, but I am more versed in Solaris and versions

Hi All, I am attempting to install CentOS 5.5 64 bit on my new Mac Mini. I boot to the CD and when I get to selecting where I am installing from (local cd, hard disk, ftp, etc) I select Local CD and it cannot find a driver and wants me to manually specify or use a driver disk. I ave no idea what drive is in this system. Can anyone point me in the right direction? -Jason

>You should: >cp /lib/systemd/system/vncserver at .service <http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos> /lib/systemd/system/vncserver@:#.service >Where # is the vnc port 590# to open. Like /lib/systemd/system/vncserver@:4.service to start a vncserver on port 5904. > Then use `systemctl start vncserver@:4' to start that VNC server. Remember to edit the

Hi All, I started a 501c3 (not-for-profit) organization back in February 2011 to deal with information archival. A long vision here, I wont bore you with the details (if you really want to know, e-mail me privately) but the gist is I need to build an infrastructure to accommodate about 2PB of data that is database stuff, stored video, crawl data, static data sets, etc. Right now in my testing of

Hi All, I am trying to add a 3Ware 9500S-8 RAID controller to a CentOS 5.4 box. I have the drivers from 3Ware and they seem to be a .ko file (which I presume is like a .kext on OSX) How do I install these? Searched turn up people talking about Kernel panics with .ko's but I dont see anything that points to to installing one so I can use the card. Best, -Jason

Hi All, I installed a new CentOS 5.5 box and I am getting a daily e-mail (I am not sure how this was triggered) with XNTPD logs, HTTP Error and Disk Space). It is being sent to root at www.6colors.co which bounces, but I have a catch all so it does get to me. How do I change where this e-mail is sent? I have tried in /etc/postfix/main.cd, master.cf, bounce.cf.default, etc and I don't see

Hello All, So My Drobo finished formatting and I added an entry to fstab for it and now I cannot boot the machine. I get an error about fsck.ext3: is a directory while trying to open /drobo and then a mention of a valid super block I had mounted the Drobo as /drobo and in 'fstab' I copied the line for '/' changing to ext3 where it was ext4. I have made a mistake I cannot fix

Hi All, I am looking at ZFS and I get that they call it RAIDZ which is similar to RAID 5, but what about RAID 10? Isn''t a RAID 10 setup better for data protection? So if I have 8 x 1.5tb drives, wouldn''t I: - mirror drive 1 and 5 - mirror drive 2 and 6 - mirror drive 3 and 7 - mirror drive 4 and 8 Then stripe 1,2,3,4 Then stripe 5,6,7,8 How does one do this with ZFS?
