I am looking to build a Workgroup Server. (Should be compatible/certified with both XEN & VMware hypervisors, as I am not sure which one I will settle with...comments requested) To run baremetal on hypervisor, with each of the following services running virtualized with minimum OS install (CentOS 5.x, latest stable release). - Multi-homed router-cum-border firewall (Access to Network Card

1) No, not necessarily. Many VM systems (Parallels, VMware, even XEN HVMs) emulate Ring 0 access for the operating system running on top of it, so there isn''t any reason for direct hardware access. However, you really should grab some older or cheaper hardware and install Xen directly on the hardware - it will be very, very slow running inside parallels. 2) There really isn''t

With NM_Controlled=No in the ifcfg file, NM applet shows "Not Managed", so the ifcfg file is being read. What is the extent of interaction of NetworkManager with ifcfg files is unknown....very little information on the net. Seems Network Manager is still mostly unplublished compared to other utilities. Any pointers to literature on this or macro architecture of NM would be appreciated,

I sometimes need to allow sub-contracted admins root ssh access to my servers. Later, I always wonder what they did during access. Is there any shell that provides all shell abilities to the remote user but monitors/emails a designated user each command executed in the shell terminal and does not allow the user (even root) to modify the bash history file or similar shell history file, or maybe

Any repository maintaining Apache rpm with mod_perl for CentOS? How do I maintain rpm installs from repos and also maintain ability to use various mods that I would like to use? Or do I have to ./configure ;-) With regards. Sanjay.

List: I am considering getting a Xen based virtual server for providing static web-site, secondary MX & DNS. Pros & Cons? anyone? Minimal install from the centos server CD (centos will be the guest OS) with Apache, Selinux, Iptables, qmail, spamassasin, djbdns, clam, mysql, postgreSQL & INN. Any install issues? What should be the HDD & RAM requirement, in addition to my database

Hello all I am setting up a Centos 6 machine with one network card & one onboard network port. Both are recognized & work. Onboard Network port is unused yet, but is required for dedicated access to LTSP LAN, which would allow older PIII machines to boot from this system. I have installed LTSP but again Networking seems to be the problem area, as the clients won't boot from this

Hello All I was planning to Implement Xen using Linux Xen dom0 based install when I saw an Ad stating that Xen had made its Xen Server free of cost (wonder if their business model is now only support?) with Tools & Management Application. I would like to know what are the issues involved and Pros & cons of using Linux Dom0 Server vs. Xen Server free. I assume domU machines will be

Hello Looking to build CentOS based micro EC2 instance bootable from Amazon EBS. Want that the image be minimal, so that I can add only the rpms I want.

Hello all, I have just testen Xen on my Fedora machine. Would like to test Xen on a Centos machine for production use evaluation. Anyone know of a repo which maintains a full/partial complement of XEN rpms & associated tools? Any suggestions? I don''t want to build, just update as new XEN kernel becomes available, just like normal production rpm updates from Centos.org With

Oh, OK. I didn't check the code. I think it only contains your flow tracking analysis code, isn't it. Our 'Giri' project was completely separate from it. Should we merge it with this or keep it as a separate project? -Swarup. ________________________________________ From: John Criswell [criswell at illinois.edu] Sent: Tuesday, January 22, 2013 12:12 PM To: Sahoo, Swarup Kumar Cc:

Hello All I made the mistake of assuming all Intel motherboards would be Linux compatible out of the box and bought one without checking support information. And now on initial install the Network is not working....the Network port is not detected at all. I have bought an Intel board DG41RQI (http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/DG41RQ/index.htm) which does not support Linux Out of

List: I am using Centos updated till date. Last night I shut down the system and X was working fine...today morning I start X and it does not work for my normal user. X starts for root & other users. The error output seems totally incomprehensibe and scrolls away from the screen too quickly. The /var/log/Xorg.0.log seems to have only the subsequent success of login of other user or I

Hi John and Silky, I can see a copy of 'giri' slicing project branch here http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project/giri/. Though it may be little older, it will work I think. You can look at the code to see how we do the instrumentation. Thanks, Swarup. ________________________________________ From: John Criswell [criswell at illinois.edu] Sent: Tuesday, January 22, 2013 10:29 AM To:

Hi all I would like to install the minimal level of Centos, with yum & selinux on my servers during the basic install from CD with Anaconda and then use yum to install whatever application is major on that server, so that yum installs its dependencies only, thus keeping to the target of installing only what is needed on a server. Please advise pros/cons of this approach and how to do it. I

Hello all Sorry for posting my query here, but did not have any success in getting feedback from linuxprinting.org/ openprinting.org forums. Planning to buy a new colour MFD or a Mono MFD & a Colour printer, for small buisiness office use. Could someone give feedback on HP Laserjet MFD M3027x and Laserjet 2840?
