 2) Follow the currently more popular community model that is in use

 people willing to contribute, at the cost of potentially lower quality
 content (however, I don't not believe that will actually be the case).
  This model would be a shift in approach from where the project
 currently seems to be focused.

That's why I asked some questions a few mails ago which nobody has
even tried to answer yet :)

As said, I'm torn between both models. Model 1 has some advantages
where I'd like to be convinced that we can also get that with with
model 2.

 The model for #2 has an escape valve, which is that all of the messy
 community stuff can happen in the wiki, while the official stuff
 that has been discussed here would live on the actual centos web site
 outside of the wiki.

That already is the case (official Documentation is there).

Okay, we already do that with the docs we scrape from somewhere else,

[CentOS-docs] CentOS 5.4 is around the corner ...

2009-10-08 Thread Ralph Angenendt
So this time we we've been a bit faster than during the last two
releases (5.3 and 4.8). Which means: We would like you to get working on
the fantastic and fabulous CentOS Release Notes again!

This time you can find the first stub at

http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS5.4

which will change over the next few days - so keep alert!

I'd like to thank you for all the work you put into the last release
notes and in the release notes before that and [...] - I'd like to thank
you generally for the work you have done for CentOS over the months/years.

Thanks!

Ben M. wrote on 10/06/2009 01:24 PM:
 I have a fairly stable Xen (CentOS 5.3 standard 3.1.x Xen) install 
 that I want to put into production within the next two weeks or so.
 
 I have some small (so far non-fatal) issues and tweaks that Xen 3.4.x 
 may address. E.g. AMD x64 IOMMU bios read, GPLPV PCI connection, HPET 
 clock, better GPLPV handling, and some others.
 
 My question is: that if I follow the directions at stacklet.com 
 (http://stacklet.com/downloads/kernel) to load up Xen 3.4 can/will 
 depmod overwrite dependencies needed for my standard Xen kernel that 
 will not be available by a simple edit of grub.conf to restore the 
 standard Xen kernel. I'm not familiar with depmod's actions.

You shouldn't have to worry about depmod - it will only operate on the 
current running kernel, or the one you explicitly tell it to, and there 
should be no direct interaction with GRUB.  I'd be much more worried 
about installing tarballs onto an RPM based system, as Stacklet seems to 
want to do from my brief look at the site you referenced.  Be sure you 
have a good backup before proceeding with that.

the normal centos kernel comes with lots of drivers compiled as modules.

depmod, used as described on the site, will not touch the rest of your 
system. and note that if using the new kernel only inside DomU (thus 
leaving Dom0 intact) AND using the first method that is described on 
that page, you do not have to touch ANY grub.conf at all ( by using the 
kernel directive inside the VM's config file, as described in the first 
part of the page)

actually the instructions given over there are pretty sane and - if 
respected - will not harm in any way the existing systems (either Dom0 
or DomU). unlike gitco, which, as you have seen, has a much more

Kernels in major distros are usually distributed with most drivers compiled as 
modules in a package that contains those modules and an initrd, or script that 
makes an initrd, that contains the drivers necessary to boot your system. This 
isn't always the case, as drivers may be compiled right into the kernel or they 
may be completely excluded for whatever reason (mini distros, appliances).

After booting, depmod resolves the kernel module dependencies in 
/lib/modules/kernel version only for the kernel that is currently running. As 
long as you don't install a kernel package that has the same version string 
(e.g., 2.6.18-128.4.1.el5xen) as a kernel you care about, you have nothing to 
worry about. If someone is distributing third party kernel packages that 
collide with a major distribution's without a really good reason, you should 
probably avoid using their packages altogether.

 If it is just a matter of having a section for it in grub.conf.

Many kernel packages will set up grub.conf for you. If it's just a tarball, you 
will have to do this manually. You may also need to build a new initrd.

No das detalles de como uniste el servidor linux a tu dominio, si lo

voy a suponer q te faltarian dos cosas

1) levantar winbind
2) q los usuarios del dominio sean reconocidos como usuarios linux en tu

para estos dos puntos te puede bastar usar la herramienta authconfig-tui
q te da un dialogo para indicar el uso de tu AD como backend de usuario
para tu linux (si mal no recuerdo la opcion es winbind)

una vez integrado podrias verificar q te puedes loguear al linux como el

 Necesitaría saber si hay algún manual o información para poder
 configurar samba para usuarios Windows pero que previamente se
 autentique con el Directory.

O sea que los usuarios Windows en el Active Directory sean reconocidos
en el servidor Linux. Si lo entendí bien entonces esto te puede servir:

Tengo un Centos 5 como servidor dhcp y conectado a un router de forma

Lo que me piden es que todo ordenador que se enchufe a la red local necesite de

Si es mucho pedir, incluso si saben de algún software para la gestión de esos

Las dos versiones de Wine (1.130 y la 1.1.12) las descargué de la web del mismo 
Wine, en el caso de la últíma dí con ella después de buscar un largo rato 
(bastante largo según recuerdo) en el tío Google hasta que encontré un blog en

http://www.vivalinux.com.ar/soft/wine-1.1.12  es la página en donde encontré la 
noticia y está el link para descargarlo.

Con respecto a la explicaciones que menciono, son de varias páginas que estuve

distros pensadas para procesadores AMD  de 64 bits. no decían nada de 
procesadores INTEL, de allí mis dudas.

[CentOS] xen guest system - install source

2009-10-08 Thread Jussi Hirvi
I am installing my first xen system (CentOS 5.3). The host system seems 
to be ok.

I am following this tutorial:
http://www.howtoforge.com/installing-xen-on-centos-5.2-i386-p2

Now I try to use virt-install to install the first guest system, but I 
cannot find a working install source.

I have tried at least these:

http://ftp.funet.fi/pub/mirrors/centos.org/5.3/isos/i386/

http://ftp.funet.fi/pub/mirrors/centos.org/5.3/isos/i386/CentOS-5.3-i386-netinstall.iso

Always I get Could not find an installable distribution.

What should I use as path?

This should be very simple, right? :-)

Now I get another odd error, though (though maybe temporary):

quite ok.

Anyway, I will try that path again another time, let's see.

 Out of haste I decided for the first time not to pull down and compile

 Well, much more time later than otherwise would be the case had I used
 iet, when I mount the volume on the windows ini, it can't find and install
 a driver? WTF?
 
 This have anything to do with the tgtd being a tech preview:)
 
 Anybody seen this b4?
 

I've used TGTD in our labs and serving both CentOS 4.x , CentOS 5.x and 
Microsoft machines (through the iscsi initiator) without any problems. I don't 
understand your 'mount the volume on the windows ini' sentence btw ... 
everything is done through the iscsi initiator packages , on all guest OS ...

 Myself I never trusted those CD burning shops, I recall on a
 couple of occasions getting bad CDs back in the day(which
 given the number of times I bought such CDs the ratio was
 pretty high). Much happier with real pressed CDs.
 
 Then there are the various linux/open source events where
 endless distributions hand out free CDs.
 
  Does anyone think these store make any money? (Linux CD Mall, Linux CD
  Shop, Linux Central...etc)
 
 Not off the CDs.
 
  Wouldn't someone selling a set for a few dollars plus shipping clean up?
 
 I wouldn't think so, not off the CDs alone. Where is the
 value add?
 
 Demand just isn't there. Even when I was still on dialup
 v90 for the most part I still downloaded ISOs. Leave it
 on overnight and it's usually done by morning. Prior to
 those days on occasion I'd buy a CD, my memory from back
 then is foggy.
 
 Which I suspect is why most of those other places like
 linux central and stuff offered things like stuffed tuxes,
 stickers, and other gadgets. Still have a few of those
 myself..

My dialup is slow  unreliable (thanks to Verizon's lack of maintaince),
so I order CD-Rs from Cheapbytes.  Not had any problems.

Yes, I expect thay Cheapbytes probably barely covers their costs selling
CDs and makes a little more from the 'other' stuff (stickers, T-shirts,
toys, etc.).

I have some open source software for sale as a CD at LuLu -- does not
make money, but I understand the woes of not having broadband (been
there, still doing that).

 http://ftp.funet.fi/pub/mirrors/centos.org/5.3/isos/i386/CentOS-5.3-i386-netinstall.iso


 Always I get Could not find an installable distribution.

 What should I use as path?

 Thanks, that seems to work. (Funny, I thought I had tried that already.)

 Now I get another odd error, though (though maybe temporary):

 ValueError: Invalid URL location given:
 http://ftp.funet.fi/pub/mirrors/centos.org/5.3/os/i386/images/xen/vmlinuz
 [Errno 14] HTTP Error 503: Service Temporarily Unavailable
 ...though I can start downloading that file manually in the browser 
 quite ok.

 Anyway, I will try that path again another time, let's see.

Hm, not so simple. Now I got the installation (with program 
virt-install) to begin, but then I would see a dialog screen asking for 
ftp server, and path containing OS for my architecture. I gave for 
example the following two values:
ftp.funet.fi
pub/mirrors/centos.org/5.3/os/i386
(the latter with and without slashes at beginning and end),
but always I get the same dialog screen back after a couple of minutes 
of blank screen. No error messages.

So I am baffled again. Has someone been here before?

Hi

I was trying to install using virt-manager whit FTP to point to the 
files (mounted with loop) in the field Install Media URL, but it was 
always failing with the message was not finding the installation files.
For me works only if I extract the files from the iso image and access 
using NFS.

The FTP works fine if I use inside the kickstart.

[CentOS] [offtopic] idea status.net

2009-10-08 Thread lostson
Hey all 
 I was sitting here thinking about things and I came up with an idea
that sounded, at least in my head, like a good one. There has been a
boom in things like twitter and brainbird and social networking setups
in general. I was wondering if the project or anyone would be interested
in setting up a status.net server specifically for the CentOS project ?

 Why? you ask, well here are some of my reasons.

 1) a central hub for all things centos, updates, wiki updates
various messages from  the dev team and whatever else 

 2) We could create groups much like in irc centos, social, devs, and 
many others

 3) another outlet to get questions answered besides forums
mailing lists or irc.

 4) Quick collaboration between parties interested in CentOS

 Some other questions would be 

 Where could we get this hosted ?
 What would we call it ? (centosuniverse - lame but hey)
 Would this be viable for the CentOS project ?

 I have noticed with brainbird you can go over the 140 character limit
which may also be a good idea 140 can limit you in some ways. I also
thought this would be a good way to create a community outlet. It is
after all easier to post a quick 140 char message about what is going on
than to compose a whole email or forum post. I've seen several websites
and communities starting to use this as a outlet for their projects.

 So the ultimate question is (poor HHG2G reference there) - Would this
work and would it be wise to persue this option ? I would volunteer to
do the leg work to get things going and help anywhere I can of course.
But would others like to collaborate on this as well ? 

 Here is a link to Status.net

 http://status.net/

 For further reading on the subject of the server side of it anyway.

 Oh and to add some more if any of you are familiar with Identi, you can
tie into things with xmpp and googltalk so you are not limited to using
a dedicated app like say a gwibber or choqok.

[CentOS] Cant map Apache DAV network place to network drive

2009-10-08 Thread Neil Aggarwal
Hello:

I have set up a DAV file system on my apache server
using these directives in ssl.conf:

Alias /files /var/www/files
Directory /var/www/files
  Dav On

  AuthType Basic
  AuthName Filesystem access
  AuthUserFile /var/www/files.passwd

  require valid-user

  Options Indexes
/Directory

On my client machine (Windows XP SP3), I am
able to add the https location as a network place.

But, when I go to map the network place as a network
drive, I can browse to the network place and see
the folders, but the OK button is always greyed
out.

Is there something wrong in my Apache config
or is Windows being obtuse?

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks,
Neil

 HI All,

 It seems that the days of ordering burned CD's of distros has faded.
 People just have fast internet now. I recall a number of times that I
 ordered Slackware CD's or others because it was just easier than
 downloading and burning myself. I am actually planning on ordering
 CentOS 5.4 media when available to support the project.

Fast internet connections certainly helped, but in many cases, we
don't even need physical media anymore. I use ISOs directly to boot
virtual machines and a USB stick for physical machines that retrieve
the installation from a loopback mounted ISO on a file server.

[CentOS] LVM newb needs assistance

2009-10-08 Thread Allie Daneman
I'm new to Linux and LVM coming from a BSD and Solaris background so I
apologize up front if there are good docs for this that I'm missing. After
googling around and going through the LVM Admin docs for CentOS I have a
few questions about an issue I have.

Somehow either I did it out of stupidity or the installer automagically
installed LVM and included both drives I have on this server. It's
configured as 1 Volume group and 1 huge drive so most of the docs on LVM
I've seen don't jive. Here's my pvdisplay:
   --- Physical volume ---
  PV Name   /dev/sda2
  VG Name   VolGroup00
  PV Size   148.91 GB / not usable 4.15 MB
  Allocatable   yes (but full)
  PE Size (KByte)   32768
  Total PE  4765
  Free PE   0
  Allocated PE  4765
  PV UUID   DOv3Cl-LWoU-JG04-PT0P-VfIV-89p2-yrdnbp

  --- Physical volume ---
  PV Name   /dev/sdb1
  VG Name   VolGroup00
  PV Size   149.05 GB / not usable 17.13 MB
  Allocatable   NO
  PE Size (KByte)   32768
  Total PE  4769
  Free PE   0
  Allocated PE  4769
  PV UUID   LK017x-dWzY-KIGL-kfOr-687Z-DgEn-YMfOw5

As you can see it seems like there's no room...but here's my df print:
FilesystemSize  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
  288G  170G  104G  63% /
/dev/sda1  99M   31M   64M  33% /boot
tmpfs 315M 0  315M   0% /dev/shm
/dev/sdc1 230G  134G   85G  62% /ext_drive

So I'm running out of room and wanting to move all data to my main drive
so I can replace the 2nd drive with a bigger one. When I try a pvmove it
states I have no room:
pvmove -v /dev/sdb1
Finding volume group VolGroup00
  No extents available for allocation

So now I'm lost...how can I put all data on my 1st drive and unhook the
2nd from LVM to replace it ? Any assistance is greatly appreciated. I'm
installing system-config-lvm hoping the GUI may help me as well.

  You have 170G of data spread throughout both disks and you want to  
move everything to the main disk which has only 148GB of capacity ?  
That doesn't add up.

  You can add this new bigger drive and stay with 3 drives then  
pvmove /dev/sdb1 onto it and remove it from the volume group.

Well...yea, I can move more data off to another disk to free up room.

That's where it gets sticky...the server can only have 2 SATA disks
installed :( If I move all the extra data off those drives how can I
accomplish what I'm trying to do ?

[CentOS] resolv.conf rewritten every reboot. How to figure out who and why?

2009-10-08 Thread Dave
My machine has a static IP, with dhcp and IPv6 disabled. Every time I
reboot, some process rewrites /etc/resolv.conf, including a comment
about dhcpclient. The only package I have installed that shows up in
rpm -qa|grep -i dhcp is dhcpv6-client-1.0.10-16.el5, and nothing in
there is named dhcpclient.

I'd like to figure out what software is rewriting this file and why.
man 5 resolv.conf  and man resolver are unhelpful in this case. rpm
reports /etc/resolv.conf is not owned by any package.

At this point, I am as (or more) interested in pointers regarding how
to find the answer as I am in the actual answer. Please teach me to
fish.

I don't know that answer, but one workaround would be to maintain a
backup copy of the file and initiate a late-boot service that replaces
the rewritten one with the backup if they don't match.

Looks like the dhclient script is still being called.

One option would be to comment out the make_resolv_conf()  function in
/sbin/dhclient-script.

[CentOS] Cloning Centos server with RSync - what to exclude?

2009-10-08 Thread Bob p...@nle
Hi all,

I have a few CentOS servers that I want to mirror live, to be standby 
spares.  The spare machines could be either a different machine (with 
a different motherboard), or a VM in Vmware server.

I've used rsync in the past, which works well for doing it while the 
machine is live.  However, I want the destination to be running 
different hardware, and have a different IP address assigned to the 
nic.  My goal is to rsync everything -except- the files that pertain to 
the network interface, and the file system mount points.

My process is this:
1. Install Centos on spare machine, configure for proper ethernet.
2. Rsync from live to spare, excluding files pertaining to NIC and FS.

Then if it needs to go live, I simply change the IP address, and I'm off 
and running.

The question is: what do I exclude?  I know 
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/, /etc/fstab, and /etc/modules*, but what 
else?  I think there may be some stuff in /var also that deals with 
raid, etc.  The live computer is running software raid, while the backup 
will not.

Re: [CentOS] resolv.conf rewritten every reboot. How to figure out who and why?

2009-10-08 Thread Spiro Harvey
 about dhcpclient. The only package I have installed that shows up in

It's called dhclient, so searching for dhcp won't give you a hit on
that.

chkconfig for dhclient too, and see what that results.

Also, look at /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0.

It's possible to have addresses statically assigned via DHCP based on
MAC addresses. If resolv.conf is getting populated by dhclient, then
I'm guessing the odds of you having a dhcp server on your network is
good. :)

In all likelihood, you have a static IP assigned in your ifcfg-eth0,
and the resolv.conf is being over-written by dhclient.

Hi,

we are developing and maintaining AjaXplorer:
http://www.ajaxplorer.info

whose default (and mature) backend is based on PHP, so there is no
reason why it should not run on CentOS (which one precisely?).
Most users are very happy with it, and it is very simple to install and admin.
I recommend that you give it a try.

We are also working on a Java server backend with even more features,
but it is not yet released. RHEL/CentOS is among the target platforms
for deployment.

Cheers,

Mathieu

/etc/init.d/network calls /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup which

How would I find this out on my own? And it seems not to be correct.
At least, if /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup calls
/sbin/dhclient, it must use some indirection, as dhclient is not
mentioned in the script explicitly:

grep -i dhc /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup
if [ ${BOOTPROTO} = bootp -o ${BOOTPROTO} = dhcp ]; then


Why does it overwrite /etc/resolv.conf when the machine is not set to
use DHCP? The IP address etc. is set statically using
/usr/bin/system-config-network.

Holy cow, something put every single option in that file.
For static address, the minimum you need is this:

DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=none
HWADDR=00:18:8b:0f:ad:c2
IPADDR=1[snip]0
ONBOOT=yes
NETMASK=255.255.255.0

And you can either leave GATEWAY there or put it in /etc/sysconfig/network

I assume it's because of PEERDNS=yes, and you'll have to try to be sure, 
but anyway all that junk serves no purpose there (well, arguably you 
could put back USERCTL and stuff like that, if you really need it).

 /etc/init.d/network calls /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup which

 on the network.


And it seems not to be correct.
 At least, if /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup calls
 /sbin/dhclient, it must use some indirection, as dhclient is not
 mentioned in the script explicitly:

My bad -- on the 4.x system I referred to, ifup is where it's called.

On my 5.x system, it's called by ifup-eth.

 Why does it overwrite /etc/resolv.conf when the machine is not set to
 use DHCP? The IP address etc. is set statically using
 /usr/bin/system-config-network.

Are there any interfaces that have BOOTPROTO=dhcp?  Perhaps one that's
not connected to the network?

grep BOOTPROTO /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg*

 How would I find this out on my own?

That's a harder one to answer.  I would start with the comment that
got added to the resolv.conf file -- and Google resolv.conf dhclient.
That brings up hits that describe several ways of avoiding the whole
issue (and confirms for you that you're on the right track).  man
dhclient mentions dhclient-script, then poking around in various etc
directories gets you to where it gets called from.

Making the leap to figuring out that PEERDNS is one of the ways that
you can control whether or not resolv.conf gets modified would mean
looking through the various definitions in ifcfg-eth0 and making sure
that you know what each one does.  When you hit one that you don't
recognize, look it up.  In this case:

PEERDNS=answer, where answer is one of the following:
  yes — Modify /etc/resolv.conf if the DNS directive is set. If
using DCHP, then yes is the default.
  no — Do not modify /etc/resolv.conf.

Take a step back and look at the whole picture.

Your suggestion will override a DHCP-related config item somewhere else.

Yes, it will likely stop the system from over-writing resolv.conf - in 
that, you are correct.

No, it will not satisfy the requirement of the the o.p. which was, I

What I'm trying to do here is to help the o.p. to find what causes the 
modification of resolv.conf, not how to cover up the issue. It's easy to 
hide the problem, either do what you suggest, or edit away 
make_resolv_conf(). But the underlying cause will remain, and may

 Not sure if this is what you need, but if you are using KDE there is a

 Googleing for file association with Gnome.

I use GNOME 99% of the time (CentOS 5.3   32 bit). I have never seen

  I'm guessing the odds of you having a dhcp server on your network is
  good. :)
 
 You guessed right. But the question remains, what software is writing the 
 file?
 
  In all likelihood, you have a static IP assigned in your ifcfg-eth0,
  and the resolv.conf is being over-written by dhclient.
 
 What is invoking dhclient, how do I find it?
  rpm -qR dhclient
 /bin/bash
 initscripts = 6.75
 libc.so.6()(64bit)
 libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2.5)(64bit)
 libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3)(64bit)
 libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3.4)(64bit)
 libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.4)(64bit)
 libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.8)(64bit)
 rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) = 3.0.4-1
 rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) = 4.0-1
 rpmlib(VersionedDependencies) = 3.0.3-1
 rtld(GNU_HASH)

 /usr/share/doc/initscripts-*/sysconfig.txt

Wow, there it is. I guess I could've found it by doing a careful
search of the initscripts package, which contains/owns
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0, which was the only script
in /etc/ that invokes /sbin/dhclient, which a comment in
/etc/resolv.conf revealed to be the program that wrote it.

Thanks guys,
Dave

 Shouldn't that be:

 BOOTPROTO=static

My options (according to  /usr/share/doc/initscripts-8.76.4/sysconfig.txt) are:
BOOTPROTO=none|bootp|dhcp

This was all set by the network panel (/usr/bin/system-config-network).

I have an embarrassing admission to make - I just realized the system
I was looking at is running fedora 9. I've noticed the same behavior
on my centos systems, though.

Just one of those things you kind of pick up as you go along and
remember.  Tribal knowledge if you will.

Where exactly did you attempt to look first?  I'm just trying to think
of where a more obvious place to look would be first.  Perhaps a man
page documenting all the ifcfg type settings?  man ifcfg?
