Hola:
  Bueno, yo no lo uso, pero me quedo la duda, si quisiera usar remotamente
  el entorno gráfico que opciones hay ???
En  ese caso te sugiero ssh (con la opcion -X) o el  nx (tienes el
freeware en nomachine y el freenx en los repositorios). Y por
supuesto,  vnc que pudiera estar  sobre ssh si  quieres mas seguridad
(no abrir el puerto 5900 a internet).
Yo me iria por el nx.

Re: [CentOS-es] java y exe

2008-03-11 Thread vladito
tendriamos que conocer los errores que te salen
usualmente estos problemas de java y exes es que wine no configura los path
de java
de forma apropiada asi que debes configurar en tu entorno el JAVA_HOME y
apuntar el java_hoe a tu jvm de linux
otro problema suele ser la internacionalizacion por lo que debes definir un
Locale apropiado para tu aplicacion en linux
o si se puede configurar la aplicacion es mejor alli directamente.

[CentOS] DNS Caching for a satellite link

2008-03-11 Thread Benjamin Weiss
I'm on a satellite link, and I've got a caching DNS server set up.  
Several popular sites have very short DNS cache times set in their SOA 
records, and I'm trying to over-ride them so that our link isn't swamped 
with DNS queries.  Anybody know how to force the DNS cache to hang onto 
the info longer than the SOA TTL?


Yes, I know the arguments against doing this, but in this particular 
instance it makes sense.


I'm using CentOS 5 and bind 9.9.3.

Thanks!

Also, do caching web proxies like Squid still speed up the web 
experience over a slow link what with all of the dynamic content on the 
web these days?

Re: [CentOS] 32bit support in 64bit environment (CentOS and Debian)

  I was just searching the web for some information on 32bit support in 64bit

Hi,

I don't know how Debian does it. But this is how CentOS does it.
Basically all libraries are available in 32 and 64 bit versions and
the 64 bit kernel used als allows 32 bit code to be executed. So this
means that when the correct libraries are installed any 32 bit
application will just work. Now then there is the yum package
management tool in CentOS. If you install a 32 bit application using
yum, yum will see what 32 bit libraries are needed and install them
together with the application.

So if you use the tools provided by CentOS there is nothing special
that needs to be done. The system will sort it out itself.

Regards,
Tim

To complement this with experience with Debian - current Debian stable
release (Etch) still requires you to install 32-bit environments in
chroot and run applications in that chroot. A multitude of chroot
tools makes this painless once it's setup (e.g. I use schroot).  It's
askward and backwards and atypical for Debian to be in such a
position.

BUT - I heard that the next release (i.e. Lenny, which is advancing in
good pace to be released on time this year) finally falls in line with
the rest of the major distributions and supports 32-bit applications
without having to build chroot environment for them. However - I
haven't got around to test this (trying to stick with stable, and the
schroot solution works for me) so I can't give details on how exactly
it works with the installations tools (e.g. aptitude, apt-get etc).

Hope this helps,

So, whatever you change in the prompt string you may want to keep this

[CentOS] KOrganizer problems

2008-03-11 Thread Anne Wilson
My file/print/mail server is CentOS.  My laptop is Mandriva 2008.0.  I have 
smb shortcuts loaded by fstab to give instant access to my home directory and 
a data directory on the server.  All was working well, after some initial 
problems with firewall and selinux, until yesterday.

After finding from the logs that someone was trying to get into my imap server 
I decided that, although they hadn't succeeded, my personal login was too 
weak, and I should harden it.  I changed the password on the server, as user 
and as smbuser, then on the laptop.  My fstab mounts work perfectly with the 
adjusted auth.servername.anne file, and I can read my mail, but I use a diary 
on the server, and I'm having problems there. 

The reminder daemon that should start when kde initialises tells me that it 
can't access the diary.  It's not clear exactly what is happening to 
korganizer within kontact.  I can see the diary, and reloading it doesn't 
blank it out, yet I get the message that access is denied.  Attempting to run 
a test entry brings the denial message, but the entry shows, even after a 
shutdown and reload.  The reminder, however, doesn't happen.

I should also say that since I changed the password on my laptop's kdewallet, 
that does not show in the taskbar.  If I enter 'kdewalletmanager' in a 
konsole it shows in the taskbar, and indicates that the wallet is open.  I'm 
not sure how this is connected with the korganizer problem, but I feel it 
must be.

I have looked through every log file I can, and can't see any reason for this.  
selinuxtroubleshooter doesn't show me anything relevant.  I'm completely 
stuck for where to look next.  All suggestions gratefully received.

Anne

[CentOS] Migrate Outlook Express mail to Thunderbird?

2008-03-11 Thread Niki Kovacs

Hi,

A friend's laptop just quit working under Windows XP, so I 1) booted a 
Knoppix Live CD 2) configured the thing for my LAN 3) scp'ed recursively 
Documents\ and\ Settings/, 4) wiped the hard disk clean and 5) installed 
CentOS 5.1. No dual-boot, no prisoners, just 100% GNU/Linux :oD


I managed to find the contents of the Outlook Express Mailboxes in some 
obscure subdirectory. It's a series of files in .dbx format. Is there 
any hope to convert these so I can import them into Thunderbird?

sdX is used for hard disks (scsi disk). A DVD is not a disk so it is
not listed there. It will probably be defined as sr0.

Anyway, the best way to find out is to install the tool lsscsi using
yum. Here is the example of the output from lsscsi on my laptop :

# lsscsi
[0:0:0:0]diskATA  ST910021AS   4.06  /dev/sda
[4:0:0:0]cd/dvd  HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-4083N 1.08  /dev/sr0

So that should help you indentify your devices.

Tim

 problems with firewall and selinux, until yesterday.
 
 After finding from the logs that someone was trying to get into my imap 
 server 
 I decided that, although they hadn't succeeded, my personal login was too 
 weak, and I should harden it.  I changed the password on the server, as user 
 and as smbuser, then on the laptop.  My fstab mounts work perfectly with the 
 adjusted auth.servername.anne file, and I can read my mail, but I use a diary 
 on the server, and I'm having problems there. 
 
 The reminder daemon that should start when kde initialises tells me that it 
 can't access the diary.  It's not clear exactly what is happening to 
 korganizer within kontact.  I can see the diary, and reloading it doesn't 
 blank it out, yet I get the message that access is denied.  Attempting to run 
 a test entry brings the denial message, but the entry shows, even after a 
 shutdown and reload.  The reminder, however, doesn't happen.
 
 I should also say that since I changed the password on my laptop's kdewallet, 
 that does not show in the taskbar.  If I enter 'kdewalletmanager' in a 
 konsole it shows in the taskbar, and indicates that the wallet is open.  I'm 
 not sure how this is connected with the korganizer problem, but I feel it 
 must be.
 
 I have looked through every log file I can, and can't see any reason for 
 this.  
 selinuxtroubleshooter doesn't show me anything relevant.  I'm completely 
 stuck for where to look next.  All suggestions gratefully received.

try moving kwallet settings out of the way so that they are recreated...

CentOS-5.1


Is there anything special one must do to get the Totem shipped with CentOS-5
to display .mov files?  When I try to view a file I get an error box with the
message:


My video solution for Linux is:

1) VLC

2) MPlayer, rebuilt in a no-GUI-version, with w32codes from mplayerhq.hu

Activate the rpmforge repos.

RE: [CentOS] Re: SSH, SCP connections to remote MySQL Database using OpenOffice Possible?

2008-03-11 Thread Therese Trudeau

 Sounds like an OOo problem, then. When I briefly tried testing it, there was
 a couple of driver options to connect to MySQL, you might try using the one
 you're not (IIRC one was ODBC and the other was JDBC).

Ah HA!  That might be the problem, I'm using the JDBC driver and I don't have 
the
ODBC driver installed.  Do you know where i could download the ODBC driver?

Or, is the ODBC driver the same as the sql-connector-java-5.0.8 driver?  That 
one
I do have; I set up OpenOffice to point to that one too as I did for the JDBC 
Driver.

[CentOS] Adding samba clients to samba server

2008-03-11 Thread Scott R. Ehrlich
I have an application that requires the use of netbios names instead of IP 
addresses, and the company that produces the application says that's the 
way it is.


I have a Windows XP machines running the application, and I want to add it 
to a domain controller.   I have a Centos 5 machine onto which I've 
installed Samba and configured it to be a DC.   I now want to add a couple 
linux workstations, also running samba, to this domain controller as 
workstations.   I've done this millions of times under Windows, but never 
added a samba client to a samba server/dc.


How do I do so?

It is my hope that this will permit me to then use the application, as 
I'll have added the XP machine to the Samba DC, too, thus hoping netbios 
names work properly.


Thanks.

Re: [CentOS] Migrate Outlook Express mail to Thunderbird?

2008-03-11 Thread John Plemons

From Mozilla...


   Linux utilities

There are several open source utilities to convert .pst files to mbox 
files such as readpst http://kontact.kde.org/kmail/tools.php , libpst 
http://alioth.debian.org/projects/libpst/Libpst and Outport 
http://outport.sourceforge.net/ . Thunderbird uses a separate mbox 
file for each folder to store all of the messages for that folder. None 
of those utilities seem to be under active development and they only 
support some of the versions of .pst files. You can use the 
ImportExporttools 
http://nic-nac-project.de/%7Ekaosmos/mboximport-en.html extension to 
import the mbox files.

You shouldn't need a domain to get netbios name resolution. That's just
broadcast packets, a workgroup configuration will work just fine
(and be much easier to setup and manage).

Just make sure all systems are on the same subnet, if they are not
then you need to setup broadcast forwarding on your router(s), and
setup a samba instance on each end to route the broadcasts as well.
(see remote announce and remote browse sync options)

Load them back into Outlook Express on a Windows box. Open a gmail

gmail/IMAP and copy the messages to gmail folders. Configure T-Bird on
CentOS for gmail/IMAP and copy from gmail to Local Folders. Hopefully

Another alternative comes to mind.   Kmail is pretty handy at importing 
from other clients' formats. Outlook Express is supposedly one of them.  
If you can get the mail into Kmail, moving it to Thunderbird should be a 
breeze.

Of course that has nothing to do with SELinux. Iptables is the firewall. You 
stopped the firewall, but did not remove the setting that is executed when 
you boot.

If that is really what you want to do then remove iptables from the rc 
directory. It depends on which distro you have but on RH compatible distro's, 
such as CentOS it is in /etc/rc3.d/ and /etc/rc5.d.

The name is prefixed with an S and a number which indicates it's startup

It is a shortcut or link as it's called in Linux and you can safely remove it.
The actual iptables startup script is in /etc/init.d and should not be 
deleted.

iptables != selinux, they are two completely different things.

instead of manually disabling the service entries, you can configure the 
firewalling to 'disabled' with `system-config-securitylevel`

Of course that has nothing to do with SELinux. Iptables is the firewall. You 
stopped the firewall, but did not remove the setting that is executed when 
you boot.


If that is really what you want to do then remove iptables from the rc 
directory. It depends on which distro you have but on RH compatible distro's, 
such as CentOS it is in /etc/rc3.d/ and /etc/rc5.d.


The name is prefixed with an S and a number which indicates it's startup 
position. For example S10iptables.


It is a shortcut or link as it's called in Linux and you can safely remove it.
The actual iptables startup script is in /etc/init.d and should not be 
deleted.


Instead of adding and deleting shortcuts manually and accidentally breaking 
something, use chkconfig (man chkconfig).

[CentOS] Python 2.4 on CentOS4?

2008-03-11 Thread Eric B.
Hi,

Has anyone managed to find a Python 2.4 rpm binary that can be installed on 
CentOS4?  I'm running CentOS4.6 and an application that I want to use 
required python 2.4 or greater.  All the CentOS/RHEL4 python rpms that I 
find are all for python 2.3.  I can't seem to find anything that works with 
CentOS4 libs.

I think pyvault (google for it) may be your best bet as far as a
somewhat clean RPM-based implementation.  However, I don't know how
maintained it is and the docs for getting it set up correctly were
pretty non-existent last time I checked.

Maybe someone knows of a better way.

 I don't but I strongly suggest that you do NOT replace the base python
 packages with a newer version. A lot of core tools (like yum) depend
 on python. So replace the base python package with a newer one could
 very well break your complete system. As Eric suggests find a way to
 install python 2.4 besides the core python in a seperate place so you
 don't start mixing them.

Yeah, definitely a can of worms.  I will note that the pyvault RPM's do
seem to have a lot of packages geared towards keeping functionality
working -- including making use of 'alternatives'.  I've tried it and
everything appeared to work, but.. who knows? :)

I wouldn't do it on a production system anyways.

ALSA provides an ALSA driver in it's plugins to send audio to a

itself is of course a pure sound server.

Having said that, I don't believe that the ALSA driver for
PulseAudio counts as yet another interface.

AOSS is merely a shim for the builtin OSS Compatibility API to
force older OSS apps to use the API properly, because of that I
count AOSS as part of the OSS Compatibility API.

Also sound servers can and do use third party API products such
as GStreamer. Often GStreamer provides those plugins on behalf
of the sound server (cause no one else wants to), but the
plugin is still part of the sound server and as far as the sound
server is concerned it is just sending audio directly to the
hardware API. GStreamer/Phonon also have plugins for
communicating with sound servers as well as HW APIs such as
ALSA or OSS. When diagramming these third party APIs things
can ugly pretty darn fast.

Thanks for the additional examples, but I still stand by my

One thing I didn't think of initially that Ignacio reminded

the third party sound APIs and the sound servers have. What
I mean is that sound servers have plugins for communicating
with hardware APIs, third party APIs and other sound servers.
While third party APIs have plugins for communicating with
hardware APIs, sound servers and other third party APIs.

I modified the image to see if it can be graphically
portrayed. It's better, but if a picture is worth a thousand

I don't but I strongly suggest that you do NOT replace the base python
packages with a newer version. A lot of core tools (like yum) depend
on python. So replace the base python package with a newer one could
very well break your complete system. As Eric suggests find a way to
install python 2.4 besides the core python in a seperate place so you
don't start mixing them.

 While dependency issues aren't too bad (e.g. yum provides MISSING_FILE),
 what is the best way to start going through and finding these conflicts?
 While this is just a test box, I'd like to get a handle on how to solve this
 sort of thing before I have the same problem on a production server.

 I see that CentOS plus in on here.  Might that have to do with PHP 4
 dependencies not being on?  Or does PHP 5 solve those dependencies?

Sanity would suggest not using a wildcard on install. Dependencies are
turned on, your issue is a package conflict because you chose to
install two separate methods for doing the same thing, which don't
agree. Use a sane install command and it'll work.

[CentOS] finding configure prefixes for RPMs?

I would like to make a minor change in C and (re)compile a particular cgi

How do I find which configure prefixes were used on the RPMforge program I

  Some corrections (PulseAudio contains an ALSA module that can redirect

 ALSA provides an ALSA driver in it's plugins to send audio to a
 PulseAudio server, so that part is pure ALSA. I mean sure it
 uses PulseAudio's protocol to send over the network, but as far
 as ALSA is concerned it's just another ALSA kernel driver for
 communicating with sound hardare. The PulseAudio server by
 itself is of course a pure sound server.
 
 Having said that, I don't believe that the ALSA driver for
 PulseAudio counts as yet another interface.

No, but it does place part of ALSA above (in front of?) part of PA.
(JACK and OSS also have similar ALSA plugins, although I don't see the
point of the OSS module)

 Also sound servers can and do use third party API products such
 as GStreamer.

Can far, far more than do. The only concrete evidence of that I was
able to find were the PA GStreamer and JACK plugins. I was unable to
find any evidence that ESD or aRts use third-party APIs, only ALSA and
OSS. (Incidentally, I found that NAS can only use OSS. Yet another
reason for it to die.)

 Often GStreamer provides those plugins on behalf
 of the sound server (cause no one else wants to), but the
 plugin is still part of the sound server and as far as the sound
 server is concerned it is just sending audio directly to the
 hardware API.

It's just sending audio, period. It's not at all concerned with where it
ends up, just that it moves to the next stage.

 GStreamer/Phonon also have plugins for
 communicating with sound servers as well as HW APIs such as
 ALSA or OSS. When diagramming these third party APIs things
 can ugly pretty darn fast.

Indeed. And I also think that an ASCII diagram is no longer sufficient
for showing the details.

[CentOS] alternatives package?

2008-03-11 Thread Eric B.
Hi,

In my struggle today to get python2.4 installed on my CentOS4 system, I saw 
that it installed a packaged called alternatives which is supposed to handle 
symbolic links to default commands in a nice clean, structured way. 
However, I am having trouble understanding how this thing works.

I have read the man page half a dozen times already, and yet the alternative 
link for python which was installed doesn't seem to follow what is written 
in the man page.  I am trying to modify the default behaviour for it, but 
having a lot of difficulty.

Of course, with a name like alternatives, it makes searching Google, 
tldp.com, etc very difficult.

Does anyone have experience with this package and/or can anyone point me in 
the direction of some good examples, documentation for it?  Something a bit 
more explanative than the man page.

Thanks!

Eric

 Yeah.  Just do the side-by-side thing I'd say and make your scripts

 Yeah, definitely a can of worms.  I will note that the pyvault RPM's do

 working -- including making use of 'alternatives'.  I've tried it and
 everything appeared to work, but.. who knows? :)

Yeah - that is actually a problem I am having.  I'm having trouble with the

but
# alternatives --display python

returns nothing.  If I look in /var/lib/alternatives, I only find print, 
mta and etags.

So I'm not quite sure how to update / modify the python alternative to point 
to another location instead.  If I look in /etc/alternatives/links I see the 
following:
# ls -l /etc/alternatives/links/
total 12
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 18 Mar 11 17:31 |usr|bin|python -

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 34 Mar 11 17:31 |usr|share|man|man1|python.1.gz - 
/usr/share/man/man1/python2.4.1.gz


The rpm installer automatically created these links when I yum installed 
python24 from pyvault.  (It automatically installed the alternatives pkg).

Thanks for the help!

You *might* want to move ~/.kde/share/apps/korganizer (with it not

something like std.ics in that folder).

perhaps you can open it separately, or import that file into your new

I didn't bother to fix the documentation related portion of the spec,
but rather cheated and built the rpm with '--without javadoc'

After you have sun java, jta, log4j, and the mysql-connector-java
package installed, log out  log in again. This should put the sun
java bits into your openoffice discovered path. We'll see here in a
minute anyway.

Open up OOo calc, and go to Tools, then Options. Select the java menu
item on the left.
Make sure the sun java package appears in the list. Make sure the box
at the top for 'use java' is checked, and make sure sun java is
selected. Then choose 'Class Path', then 'Add archive'. Add the path
'/usr/share/java/mysql-connector-java.jar'

Now save and exit. It'll tell you that you have to restart OOo Calc,
and that's BS. You actually have to log out and log back in again for
some insane reason I have yet to discover. This time around you should
actually be able to connect to your database by selecting MySQL from

 Open up OOo calc, and go to Tools, then Options. Select the java menu
 item on the left.
 Make sure the sun java package appears in the list. Make sure the box
 at the top for 'use java' is checked, and make sure sun java is
 selected. Then choose 'Class Path', then 'Add archive'. Add the path
 '/usr/share/java/mysql-connector-java.jar'
 
 Now save and exit. It'll tell you that you have to restart OOo Calc,
 and that's BS. You actually have to log out and log back in again for
 some insane reason I have yet to discover. This time around you should
 actually be able to connect to your database by selecting MySQL from
 the list, and jdbc as the connection type. This works with and without
 the ssh tunnel in testing here.

for the record...I used the default OODBC drivers for postgres on both
CentOS 4 and now Cent OS 5 but the postgres db I use is localhost. I
mostly use the ODBC drivers from my Fedora desktop (not localhost
obviously) and they work fine.

so when you state The default ODBC drivers from the unixODBC package
don't work. Period. I have to say that in my limited experience, they
do indeed work with postgres. I don't generally use MySQL for anything
other than special purpose stuff (horde/sqlgrey) and have little
interest in reporting from them.

The default is only applied to devices as they come up.  You'll need to also
increase the values in the interface-specific directories.

Be sure to also adjust your /etc/sysctl.conf because manually playing in /proc
won't survive a reboot.

In my very large flat network, I have the following in /etc/sysctl.conf:
net.ipv4.neigh.default.gc_thresh1 = 4096
net.ipv4.neigh.default.gc_thresh2 = 8192
net.ipv4.neigh.default.gc_thresh3 = 8192
net.ipv4.neigh.default.base_reachable_time = 86400
net.ipv4.neigh.default.gc_stale_time = 86400

These are documented in arp(7).
