 Yes, I knew about that one. Should we move that one now ? What would be a 
 good location for it ? Mailinglists ? Documentation/Mailinglists ?

It's in all ReleaseNotes, on the spanish frontpage, on the fr frontpage
(which isn't referenced anywhere yet, afaics).

HowToContribute is in the FAQs (FAQ frontpage, english and spanish), in
the ReleaseNotes, in AboutThisWiki, in ToDo, on the Events frontpage,
there is wiki:HowToContribute/Packages (which isn't correct anyway,
AFAICS), in ArtWork (where it really doesn't matter), there is
HowToContribute/EditingCentOSWiki, it is in the General FAQ, it's in
GettingHelp/ListInfo, in Contribute/, in HowTos/Amavisd - and that
should be about it ...

No idea how to go at that - we have to move the HowToContribute subpages
first (and put a redirect into the old pages, so google or other pages
referencing it don't get upset). 

 For the new names of pages I try to get rid of mixed names like 
 GettingHelp to get a higher Google ranking. Using slashes or dashes would 
 probably be better, but for the whole documentation section I have no clue 
 how we want to structure it in the future.

Me neither - But HowTo and TipsAndTricks still seem logical and senseful
to me.

Here is the link:

Thanks for your addition Marko :-)

WRT your additional note regarding the inbuilt mic not working if the 
camera is plugged in at boot - I experienced the opposite with the 
Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000 (onboard sound didn't work if the webcam was 
plugged in at boot) and posted a workaround on that page.

I wonder if defining the sound device in /etc/modprobe.conf for the 
webcam (snd_usb_audio maybe??) would solve the issue?

Anyway, thanks again for your contribution.

[CentOS-es] Error Qmail y maildrop

2009-01-02 Thread Sergio Villalba Moreno
Hola a todos,

 

Acabo instalar un servidor qmail (smtp-auth, chkuser), vpopmail, MySQL,
courier-imap y roundcube  bajo Centos 5.2.

 

He compilado maildrop-2.0.4 con estas opciones:

 

./configure --prefix=/usr/local --exec-prefix=/usr/local
--enable-maildrop-uid=root --enable-maildrop-gid=vchkpw
--enable-maildirquota (he seguigo la guia instalación qmailrocks.org)

 

Los mensajes locales siempre se quedan en la cola, los remotos salen sin
problema. Aparece este error continuamente.

 

@4000495e3286177d929c status: local 1/50 remote 0/50

@4000495e32891cf7b7d4 delivery 117: deferral:

@4000495e32891cf7d32c status: local 0/50 remote 0/50

 

¿Alguna sugerencia?

 

Gracias por todo.

Re: [CentOS] restricting mails from mail command to specific domains only in postfix

2009-01-02 Thread Chaminda Mendis

Hi,

I'm not very familiar with postfix. I think you have to set relayhost = 
ip or host name of  CentOS relayin server parameter in 5 Linux servers 
which are relaying there's mails via CentOS server.


Try this.

Thanks

How can I restrict mails even going through mail command from these
5 servers to specific domains only. These 5 servers are running some
cronjobs and these cronjobs output it mailed through mail command.

If you are using sendmail as the local MTA on these 5 systems
(default) did you change your smarthost configuration to forward mail
through your postfix mail relay?

Hi Bob, 

just fyi --table and --append are both documented in the

I admit, I only use the short forms myself. :-)

 How can I restrict mails even going through mail command from these

smtpd_*_restrictions apply to mail submitted via SMTP (which is the case
if you use telnet or if mail is received from a remote machine). but
mail submitted via the sendmail command (which is the case when you use
the 'mail' command) is not subject to these restrictions.

in short, with your current config, you have what you want except for
mail submitted via a sendmail on the relay itself.

do you really want to restrict the latter? unless you are using selinux
or the like to prevent other programs from connecting to the network, a
program can simply connect directly to outside.

if you insist, then force mail to be passed to an smtpd using -o
content_filter in master.cf:

pickup 
-o content_filter=relay:[127.0.0.1]:25

with this, mail received via the sendmail command will be passed to
127.0.0.1 port 25 and you get what you want.

but there is a caveat here: if after being received on port 25, the
message is reinjected using the sendmail command (say from a content
filter or from maildrop/procmail/whatever), then it will go to
127.0.0.1:25 again, and so on. and at sometime, you'll get an infinite
loop error message (which won't loop, because internal messages are not
subject to content_filter!)

Seems so.

The issue was on one of the linux server the relay host was not
defined in sendmail and I was testing the mail configuration that
server. Anyway now mails from other domains are getting denied from
all the 5 servers and only thing left is how to restrict mails from
the relay host (postfix mail server).  Mouss has given a good example
and I will try that.

[CentOS] Issue with package-cleanup --oldkernels with PAE kernel

2009-01-02 Thread Alfred von Campe
I'm not sure if this is a bug, known issue, feature, etc.  On my  
CentOS systems with the PAE kernel installed, package-cleanup behaves  
as follows:

   # rpm -q kernel
   package kernel is not installed
   # rpm -q kernel-PAE
   kernel-PAE-2.6.18-92.1.13.el5
   kernel-PAE-2.6.18-92.1.18.el5
   kernel-PAE-2.6.18-92.1.22.el5
   # uname -r
   2.6.18-92.1.22.el5PAE
   # package-cleanup --oldkernels --count 2
   Setting up yum
   Error all kernel rpms are set to be removed

Has anyone else seen this?  Is this expected behavior or a (known) bug?
