Hola Carlos,

Lo mejor será que te pases por la página dedicada a la virtualización 
del wiki de CentOS:

http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos#Virtualization

Allí encontrarás varios howtos para instalar KVM y VirtualBox que te van 
a permitir virtualizar tu máquina CentOS donde podrás instalar Windows, etc.

Todos ellos vienen en la base de CentOS, si para empezar no te decides 
por ninguno, personalmente te aconsejaría que apostaras por KVM.

De entrada, para mi caso particular, no soy conocecor de java y el hecho

 I recently updated to OpenOffice 3.2 and I noticed that it, and the
 latest Evolution, seem to be incredibly slow for some operations.

Latest version for CentOS 5.5 is
openoffice.org-writer-3.1.1-19.5.el5_5.1
Where did you obtain 3.2 from?  That may be your slowness as on my 64
bit workstation I see none at all.  Loads in about 3 secs.

evolution-2.12.3-19.el5:
Now Evolution on my 32 bit workstation I have 1555 emails in it and it
is not slow, 8 different email accounts also, especially even though it
is GUI based instead of console.  About every 2000 mails I back it up
and start over again from 0.

 E.g., in OO, about half the time when I'm editing something, it takes
 anywhere from 10-30 seconds for OO to respond to a click on one of the
 icons or menu items, and Evo is taking forever to format messages.

Converting a *.doc file to *.pdf only takes about 3 secs.  What type of
Graphics card you have?  Yea I know weird question but can cause your
problem also.

snip
 I'm running the x86_64 release on an Athlon II X4, 2.6GHz with 4GB of
 memory and lots of available space in memory and on disk.

Looked at your memory usage? Is it swapping by chance? #free.  Have you
looked at top while using those apps?  What about spamd in Evolution?
Disable all non needed services.

Here is the memory for my 32 bit workstation for Evolution + spamd + a
few consoles/pine opened + firefox.  sometimes links  screen.  No
problem here what so ever.

I believe that's incorrect.  One often first needs to boot into Linux
and use fdisk to remove or reformat (in fat32 or ntfs, if possible). 

At least some Windows CDs simply won't see a Linux partition and will
say there is no available disk.

However, unlike Linux, MS tends to document things very well, at least
from the sysadmin's viewpoint.  (Programmers tell me the opposite is the
case in programming documentation).   Searching the MS knowledge base
using terms like reformat Linux partition should give you a result where
they walk you through it.

Thanks Russ,

Sadly I've tried the same process by hand on both ways and on
different physical servers running Centos:

openssl bf  -d -in $1 -out $ARCH -k $KEY

and

cat $1 | openssl  bf -debug -d -out $ARCH -k $KEY  $1.unc


and either failed :(

I am taken aback...

 Reducing the number of times you need to enter the LUKS pass phrase to once

 containing an LVM of / and Swap so that the system can boot with one entry 
 of the pass phrase and if
 you then have other partitions, such as an independent /home, /etc/crypttab 
 can be used (with
 appropriately constructed and protected cryptpassphrase files).
 
 At this point I don't even know what a LUKS pass phrase is -- is this
 something I'm liable to run into on a home desktop computer?
 

Depends on how much you value not letting other folks at your data, with out 
your permission after
you have properly powered down the machine. :)

LUKS is used with encrypted partitions/filesystems.  I have only used it at the 
partition level.
It is most easily setup at install time, because anaconda gets the incantations 
correct for you.

Given the complaint was that the battery was disconnected and that it

the battery. Pop open the battery compartment and make sure the

[CentOS] NAT via /etc/sysconfig/iptables

Hello listmates,

It's been a few years since I've set up a router... and for some
reason I seem to be getting hung up on this one.

Does anybody have a sample iptables config file that would incorporate
NAT and forwarding for a simple router?

Thanks.

Turn on ip frwding in sysctl.conf:
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1

Then rules something like this (Tune for your needs):
# Accept packets belonging to established and related connections
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
# Setup masquerading on WAN interface  forward specified requests
/sbin/iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -o $WAN -j MASQUERADE
/sbin/iptables -A FORWARD -i $LAN -o $WAN -m state --state 
NEW,ESTABLISHED,RELATED -p tcp -m multiport --dports 80,443 -j ACCEPT
/sbin/iptables -A FORWARD -i $WAN -o $LAN -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED

That should still be the case. We have a size limit on this list though,

[CentOS] how to install Atheros AR5008 on CentOS 5.5 in console-only mode?

2010-08-02 Thread Rudi Ahlers
Hi all,

I hope someone can help me.  I'm trying to setup a D-Link DWA-547 on
CentOS 5.5 x64 in console only mode, i.e. there's no X installed. The
Wiki article suggests using NetWork Manager, but since there's no X
installed on this server, it's not possible.

How do I go about installing this card?

Here's the output of lspci -v:

[CentOS] who uses Lustre in production with virtual machines?

2010-08-02 Thread Rudi Ahlers
I'm considering setting up a Lustre cluster system for our XEN virtual
machines as shared storage, mainly for high availability on our XEN
VPS servers.

Does anyone use Lustre in a production environment?
What is your opinions / experiences with it?

One of the main reasons I'm looking at using Lustre is that we have a
few older machines, of different specs that I want to use for storage
purposes. i.e. I don't want to use proprietary, or matching hardware
if I don't want to. Many of these machines are still in good standing
and of good spec (3.2Ghz PIV + HT  4GB RAM, Core2Duo + 4GB RAM,
single XEON + 4GB RAM, dual core Atoms, etc) Will this work?

 Latest version for CentOS 5.5 is
 openoffice.org-writer-3.1.1-19.5.el5_5.1
 Where did you obtain 3.2 from?  That may be your slowness as on my 64
 bit workstation I see none at all.  Loads in about 3 secs.

I have been using releases direct from OOo, but on the off chance that
this was the problem, and since 3.1.1 isn't that far behind 3.2, I
updated to the CentOS release.  There's still a problem, though - it
doesn't happen all the time, but every so often, apparently at random,
some mouse click command will just stop for 10-30 seconds before it
does anything.  The first one I hit was doing a File-Open Recent -
while I was running the mouse down the list, it stopped on the one
above the file I wanted for about 12 seconds before it loaded the
file.

 evolution-2.12.3-19.el5:
 Now Evolution on my 32 bit workstation I have 1555 emails in it and it
 is not slow, 8 different email accounts also, especially even though it
 is GUI based instead of console.  About every 2000 mails I back it up
 and start over again from 0.

Same version here.  This only seems to happen once in a blue moon -
probably not the same issue.  I eventually gave up, killed the
Evolution processes (because it wouldn't exit normally or allow me a
force-quit) and restarted.  No problems after that, except a delayed
startup and the usual duplicate messages from those I had moved before
it died.

 Converting a *.doc file to *.pdf only takes about 3 secs.  What type of
 Graphics card you have?  Yea I know weird question but can cause your
 problem also.

I was just editing a *.odt file - no conversions, and the problem
doesn't seem to be related to the operation invoked, just getting the
invocation to take place.

nVidia GeForce 7200S, but I'm not seeing this anywhere else, just OO.

 Looked at your memory usage? Is it swapping by chance? #free.  Have you
 looked at top while using those apps?  What about spamd in Evolution?
 Disable all non needed services.

Did most of that (except spamd in Evo) and nothing showed up in top -
the big CPU hog was SeaMonkey at 23% of one core, the others were all
idle or lower use.  Almost no swapping:

Re: [CentOS] how to install Atheros AR5008 on CentOS 5.5 in console-only mode?

 I hope someone can help me.  I'm trying to setup a D-Link DWA-547 on

 Wiki article suggests using NetWork Manager, but since there's no X
 installed on this server, it's not possible.

 How do I go about installing this card?

 Here's the output of lspci -v:

 01:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5008
 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
 Subsystem: D-Link System Inc Unknown device 3a6b

I can only point you in the right direction (sorry!). This is from
memory and from a setup that I've used on Fedora in the past so CentOS
_should_ be similar...

You have to install wpa_supplicant and the relevant configuration files are:
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wap_supplicant.conf
/etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/keys-eth0

 Does anyone here have any feel for the Battery disconnected and

 The rebooting came as a result of me turning off modems, router,
 external drives, monitor, cordless phone and finally, the computer,
 trying to locate a quiet but annoying chirp.  The chirps stopped
 when I tilted the UPS to look at the front panel. As you can see, log
 entries stopped at as suddenly as they started.

 Ah, yes, *that* chirp. Try doing a self-test on the battery. Oh, and I
 don't suppose the replace battery light's on? Check the manual - there's
 some trick to pushing in one of the buttons to tell it to shut up.

Thanks to each of you who replied.

Mark, I did perform a manual self-test -- after downloading a UG for the 
UPS.
Looks like it went to hell in the proverbial handbasket in 22 days. I'm 
not surprised,
just di$$appointed.

Benjamin, the coincidence 'tween tilting the UPS and the chirps stopping 
got my attention
last night. I have not yet crawled under the desk to check the 
connections but that's next.

Dave, you very likely pointed out my final course of action.  3 years is 
a pretty good life
for a battery (my lawn mower should do so well!) and I'm thinking that 
with a little shopping,
I can buy a new UPS for not too much more than a battery pack.

BTW, for anyone else who has misplaced the UG, try

 I can't really argue that point there.  I've seen iptables do the same
 as also auditd.  Carefulness in log watching is the key.  You check your
 logs?

I do. Daily emails with copies of all logs and a summary disk usage
statement of all partitions.

I learned my lesson about log files a while back. ;-)

[CentOS] Manually mounting partitions in linux rescue mode

2010-08-02 Thread Edward Diener
I boot from the installation DVD, with an already existing CentOS 5.5 
system on my hard disks. I have separate boot, root, and home 
partitions. I have moved the boot partition and now I need to 
re-initialize grub from rescue mode.

Attempting to use 'rescue mode to automatically mount my system under 
/mnt/sysimage eventally fails with an error message, which essentially 
says 'mount error' and nothing else. I am then put at a command prompt 
as root.

So now I decide to manually mount my partitions at /mnt/sysimage and 
then do a chroot to /mnt/sysimage. This succeeds and when I look at my 
files they are there.

I now try 'grub' and the 'grub' shell comes up. I now attempt the 'grub' 
command:

root (hd0,9)

only to be met with:

Error 21: Selected disk does not exist.

I do not know what this means and how I can correct it. Does anybody 
know what is going on ?

One thing I am concerned about is that when I booted from the DVD and 
was eventually put at the command prompt, I saw there were devices in 
the /dev subdirectory but after I did the chroot, there were no devices 
in the new root's /dev subdirectory although when I had previosuly 
booted into CentOS 5.5 on my hard disk off course they were there.

The other thing I noticed is that after the 'chroot' the 'mount' command 
showed only my root partition mounted on /dev/sdb8 where it actually 
exists ( along with sysfs and proc which I mounted from the old root ). 
But despite this there are no subdirectories under the new root's /dev.

I am just trying to re-initialize 'grub' so I can boot my CentOS 5.5 
system again. There must be a way to successfully do this from the 
installation DVD. If somebody can give me the steps to manually mount my 
partitions and succeed it would be very much appreciated.

I'm guessing (I'm not all that familiar with the sysimage thing--I
usually just mount things on /mnt) that you probably need to do

mount -o bind /dev /mnt/sysimage/dev
mount -o bind /proc /mnt/sysimage/proc

However, as I said, I'm not familiar with the sysimage thing, I've
always just skipped that when using rescue and gone to a shell prompt. 

So, take that as a major disclaimer.
