hi, im new here. we have servers with centos 4. yesterday one of it crash and cold rebooted. reboot process run well until finally we found that some of /etc/inittab configurations doesn't loaded properly, like no virtual terminal available and svscanboot not executed. i assumed that these configurations not loaded: # Run gettys in standard runlevels 1:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty1

I decided to upgrade from openSuse 10.2 to openSuse 10.3. I installed xen things, but when I boot using xen option the system is blocked. It appears the green window, with little suse logo in the middle, and mouse cursor, but the system crashes. My computer is a Pentium 4 1,5 GHz, 512 MB of RAM. I attached "diff boot.msg boot.omsg" (as diff opensuse-normal-kernel opensuse-xen-kernel)

Hi, I need some help to clarify TTY and virtual consoles. Thanks a lot. 1. I learned that to switch from one TTY to another, one must be at the physical machine. Does the same apply to virtual consoles? 2. My /etc/inittab includes the following. Does that mean there's only one instance of TTY on my CentOS? ... #

Hi Pasi, if I don''t change the tty to hvc it will stopped on Kernel 2.6.31.13 on i686 (console) localhost login: root Kernel 2.6.31.13 on i686 (console) localhost login: root Kernel 2.6.31.13 on i686 (console) localhost login: root After I change it to hvc0 followed the twiki page the log is Remounting root filesystem in read-write mode: [ OK ] Mounting local filesystems: [ OK

Denny: Thank you. Problem solved. I switched SHUTDOWNCMD back to the default and added nut.powerfail to the shutdown runlevel. Now the UPS turns off after the system shutdown, if the shutdown is caused by lack of power going to the UPS. I checked and found the file sys-power:nut-2.7.4-r1:2018...log in /var/log/portage/elog/*. It did contain the message you pointed out. I should have checked

Hi, trying to figure out how the system manages UPS connections. On both Centos 5.9 and 6.4, merely plugging in a USB UPS device causes an icon to appear in the top panel, and (at least on 5.9, haven't yet tested this in 6.4) when the UPS suffers a power failure the system notices and after a bit does a clean shutdown. All this without installing ANYTHING extra. one of the UPSes I'm

Glad you got it working. Denny > On Jul 28, 2018, at 19:02, richjunk at pacbell.net wrote: > > Denny: > > Thank you.

hi why are tty3-tty6 started after this config change? i would like to have only tty1 finally becasue on a virtual machine there is no need for the other processes since CTRL+ALT+Fx is caught by the own system and remote console mostly not needed at all [root at centos ~]# cat /etc/init/start-ttys.conf # # This service starts the configured number of gettys. start on stopped rc RUNLEVEL=[2345]

Hello, I have a remote IBM x3550 M4 server that I try to remote control through IMM2. The problem: only the blinking cursor is visible in login console. It moves when I type. It moves to where "Login: _" should be if I press ctrl+c. I can login if I enter the correct login and password, but the shell that I get also shows only the blinking cursor and no text. I can issue commands.

How can I be sure if it is LKM or not? Today I've run chkrootkit and it gave me: Checking `lkm'... You have 179 process hidden for readdir command You have 179 process hidden for ps command chkproc: Warning: Possible LKM Trojan installed Checking `chkutmp'... The tty of the following user process(es) were not found in /var/run/utmp ! ! RUID PID TTY CMD ! root

This really isn’t what you want. You should use a normal shutdown command on Gentoo: SHUTDOWNCMD "/sbin/shutdown -h +0” When you emerged the NUT package, you should have seen this message: * Please note that NUT now runs under the 'nut' user. * NUT is in the uucp group for access to RS-232 UPS. * However if you use a USB UPS you may need to look at the udev or * hotplug

I'm upgrading my primary server from RH 7.2 to CentOS-4.3.ServerCD. I REALLY like the ServerCD. Who needs all the fluff that comes with a standard distro? If I want a system-config-gooey I can run Xnest [1] and ssh -X from my laptop. Anyway I have two questions: 1) How can I collectively stop all the NFS, portmap, whatever? I'm hoping it can be manipulated as a group because occationally

I am getting an odd situation when backing up a number of ext3 filesystems and was wondering if it could be caused by journalling. Over the space of a minute the load average will jump from 2 to over 40 and the system will be unresponsive for anywhere from 8 to 25 minutes. I am going to be trying a number of things, but was wondering if anyone could see the reason for the high load given the

Hi, One of my pbx's seems to be having some new issues. crackling interference on the zap channels running through the channel bank, and I noticed that these happen when I hit an "irq miss" in zttool: Current Alarms: No alarms.

Hello, I'm just migrating my boxes to fedora 9 which brings us to the upstart mechanism instead of SystemV, etc.The distro as it is delivered does not have configuration which supports powerfail events. What can I put in /etc/events.d to make nut work again with the rest of the system fortimely shutdown, etc? Pointers to example files are very welcome! Thanks. Kind regards, Udo

One of our users recently had a powerfail while connected to our meetme gateway. (Asterisk 1.4.17 on debian 4.0) Through the course of it, asterisk never hung up. His system came back up, and started sending ICMP port unreachables, but the stream went on, flooding him with "silence" media stream packets (there was nobody else in the conference). Is asterisk aware of ICMP

I installed xen 3.3.0 on a etch box from sources. I just modified the standard kernel cause of some hardware drivers. I installed xen-tools from backports (3.9-3~bpo40+1). To create a domU ist not the problem. I can connect via ssh and everything works fine. But when i start a domU with "xm create host.example.tld.cfg -c" to login to console from domU it hangs after the message

We run a CentOS-5 based hylafax server with external serial modems. We are transitioning to an Asterisk system using IAXmodem running on CentOS-6. On the CentOS-5 system to start the fax modems we added these lines to inittab: # Add fax lines and always ALWAYS run "telinit q" after making a change. fax1:2345:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyS0 fax2:2345:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyS1
