I'd like to add a page for the Realtek r1000 NIC driver for the RTL8110SC (and others) chipset. This driver is not included in the kernel. I've previously posted to the general mail list: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2007-February/075383.html I'm guessing this would go in the HardwareList section. Otherwise a page titled 'Realtek r1000 Driver' would work. my

I'm starting a project to build a MythTV box for my living room. Anyone else currently working with MythTV on CentOS 4? Here are some of the gotcha's I've worked through so far: - I was originally planning on using KnoppMyth. But their CD appears to be only for i386. Without realizing it, the P4 CPU I picked is one of the newer ones with the x86_64 extensions. It won't boot

I'll go on the paper. I'll reinstall chrony. But there *are* places I've needed to use nodeps. Mostly to manage

Is it possible to boot the Live CD through PXE? I've tried using Red Hat's PXE setup tool but have been unsuccessful. Thanks, Kirk Bocek

Now that I've been enlightened to the terrible write performance of ext3 on my new 3Ware RAID 5 array, I'm stuck choosing an alternative filesystem. I benchmarked XFS, JFS, ReiserFS and ext3 and they came back in that order from best to worst performer. I'm leaning towards XFS because of performance and because centosplus makes kernel modules available for the stock kernel.

After reading this article: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/08/31/blocking_chinese_ip_addresses/ I got to thinking that there is really no reason for *any* traffic to hit my servers that comes from anywhere outside North America. So I wrote the perl script at the end of this posting to extract selected IP ranges posted at iana.org and convert them into iptables rules blocking any traffic

Could I get write access to http://wiki.centos.org/HardwareList/CentOS5/RealTek/r1000? There's a couple of things I'd like to copy over from my CentOS4 R1000 page. Wiki Name: kirkbocek Thanks, Kirk Bocek

Since updating to 4.2 my Opteron server has been flooded by messages like: audit(1129565701.837:155): user pid=4700 uid=0 auid=4294967295 msg='PAM session open: user=root exe="/usr/sbin/crond" (hostname=?, addr=?, terminal=cron result=Success)' to both /var/log/messages and the kernel ring buffer. Looks like they are being generated by cron jobs being run on the server. Does

Howdy, It appears that CentOS 5.2's support for the RTL8111B/C chip is incomplete. The wiki has some blanket statements regarding this support: http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/HardwareList/CentOS5/RealTek/r1000 http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/HardwareList/RealTekRTL8111b I could dive in an make the changes *I* think need to happen but I'd like to talk to people

So I've built my first CentOS 7 host and am learning all the new ways of doing things. I setup and enabled ntpd but after a reboot I get: $ systemctl status ntpd ntpd.service - Network Time Service Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/ntpd.service; enabled) Active: inactive (dead) After issuing: $ systemctl start ntpd Ntpd runs just fine. But why isn't it loading at boot

I'd like to add a page for the Realtek RTL8111b NIC. I'm not sure how you'd like to organize it since the page really could be relevant to both CentOS 4 and CentOS 5. I think a single page like: http://wiki.centos.org/HardwareList/RealTekRTL8111b Would work with links to both CentOS 4 *and* CentOS 5? However, if the wiki admins want two pages, that'll be fine too. Can you also

Just discovered that on CentOS 4.1 when you issue the command: lvcreate -s -n temp -L2G /dev/vgname/lvname to create a snapshot, you get the error message: snapshot: Required device-mapper target(s) not detected in your kernel I've checked and recheck my spelling and tried using the device created under /dev/mapper. I've tried it on both x86_64 and on i386. Works as expected under

I have two identical servers. The only difference is that the first one has Maxtor 250G drives and the second one has Seagate 320G drives. OS: CentOS-4.4 (fully patched) CPU: dual Opteron 280 Memory: 16GB Raid card: 3ware 9550Sx-8LP Raid volume: 4-disk Raid 5 with NCQ and Write Cache enabled On the first server I have decent performance. Nothing spectacular, but good enough. The second one

I've install yum-cron on a new CentOS 7 host and after a recent update I am now getting daily repeating emails about that update instead of the single notification I was expecting. Does anyone know what's going on? Kirk

Does anyone know how to upgrade the I2C modules *without* compiling the current kernel source? I have a system that apparently needs the current set of I2C modules to work with lm_sensors. If I compile the current kernel source, the proper readings show up. However, with the stock 2.6.9-42.0.2 kernel, one sensor chip isn't seen. Trying to compile the I2C source yields a "Use the
