similar to: xm console hangs - in a way

I''m trying to get DHCP working with DomU clients. I don''t want to use libvirtd. There''s a dhcpd on the machine and it works fine for all clients in the network, but not for DomUs. If I set a static IP on the DomU all networking for them is fine, so there''s no general networking problem. I use the xen 3.2 packages for CentOS on CentOS 5.1. There was a public

All of a sudden yum hangs on a Centos 4.5 (updated to the latest patch before 4.6) when I try to use it. "clean metadata" didn't help. The output of -d5 shows it gets to the point of "Reading Local RPMDB" and then sits there. The process doesn't die, but doesn't seem to do anything from that point on. strace shows this: futex(0xb76dcae8, FUTEX_WAIT, 2, NULL I

Supposedly CentOS 5.1 should fix the problems with foreign keyboards, but I cannot see any change. The description in http://misterd77.blogspot.com/2007/11/xen-graphical-console-and-foreign.html does not work for me. Nothing changes. Has had anyone better luck? If so, how?

I added a virtual interface eth0:1 on one of my machines and suddenly networking breaks on startup of the system (eth0 is gone) when xend starts and runs the network-bridge script. This is supposed to be fixed according to: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi I checked and the network-bridge script contains this fix. It works fine on one of my PCs when eth0:1 is added, but not on this

I''m using the cpufreq=dom0-kernel hypervisor kernel parameter to enable frequency scaling on the host machines for quite some time now. Since then I started to get the "Time went backwards" message on AMD machines (not on Intel machines). It''s not a big problem, so I only research it once in a while when I stumble upon it from yet another direction. There''s

I set xm mem-max domain 1024 xm mem-set domain 1024 and xm list on the host shows 1024, but free on the guest still shows 512. I thought this is working with a running domain?

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.

With the upgrade to 5.1 I get new behavior when I "open" the console from vm manager. Before 5.1 it showed the console login message like on a physical machine. However, with 5.1 I get a window that wants a password and has a checkbox "save the password in your keyring". What password? No matter, what I enter there the window just hangs and when I try to close it I get a

I have a local mirror of CentOS5 base and updates. Now with 5 having become 5.1 and in case I just want to keep on updating (at the moment) is it enough that I update the mirror of updates or do I also need an update of the base repo?

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

The new virtual machine manager in Centos 5.1 displays some weird behavior here and I assume it's because the UUID of one running VM is the same as of a VM that is shut down. I used the same config file template for creating all my test VMs, so several have the same UUID. Didn't produce any problems with xm. But the new VM manager in Gnome shows active and inactive VMs and identifies

I took over a custom firewall script from my older Suse machines to my Dom-Us and it works just fine. Doing the same for Dom-0 immediately killed all traffic for the VMs. As there was no need before I had been dropping everything on the FORWARD chain. After ACCEPTing all for FORWARD my VMs are happy again. What's best practice on Dom-0, what do you do? Can I restrict the forwarding, in

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

Hi Guys, OK, I figured out the problem, It would seem that Comcast spelling my DNS entry wrong would do it! I have done this a zillion times, I was totally stumped as to what I would be missing this time.

make sure that your mountpoint does not have a .ogg extention with the mp3 stream, otherwise, it will try to play using the ogg plugin, and will stay at 0% buffer On Thu, 10 Mar 2005 19:45:09 +0100, Kai Schaetzl <maillists@conactive.com> wrote: > I'm new to streaming or music hearing over the wire, I still prefer my > old-fashioned stereo equipment :-) > But a friend asked me

really, it should have no extention, like /stream/1001 for the mountpoint On Thu, 10 Mar 2005 20:51:29 +0100, Kai Schaetzl <maillists@conactive.com> wrote: > Darrell Dominey wrote on Thu, 10 Mar 2005 15:31:04 -0330: > > > make sure that your mountpoint does not have a .ogg extention with the > > mp3 stream, otherwise, it will try to play using the ogg plugin, and >

I found that lm_sensors got installed because of a dependency on my first Xen VM that I updated to 5.3. lm_sensors doesn't make sense in a VM. I thought, ok let's check after the update who wants it. However: rpm -q --whatrequires lm_sensors no package requires lm_sensors (same for --triggeredby with lm_sensors or the packages below) Trying to remove lm_sensors reveals these packages:

Is there a program on CentOS which will sort my passwd/group etc. files by username or uid/gid? On Suse I can do this with a sysconfig switch and Suseconfig, is there something similar on RH-based systems?
