[CentOS-announce] Release for CentOS-6.0 i386 and x86_64
We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of CentOS-6.0 for i386 and x86_64 Architectures. CentOS-6.0 is based on the upstream release EL 6.0 and includes packages from all variants. All upstream repositories have been combined into one, to make it easier for end users to work with. There are some important changes to this release compared with the previous versions of CentOS and we highly recommend reading this announcement along with the Release Notes at http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS6.0 There are no CD images being released with CentOS-6, however we have some CD variants in the pipeline. Details for these are mentioned below. Since upstream has a 6.1 version already released, we will be using a Continous Release repository for 6.0 to bring all 6.1 and post 6.1 security updates to all 6.0 users, till such time as CentOS-6.1 is released itself. There will be more details about this posted within the next 48 hours. +++ Upgrading from CentOS-4 or CentOS-5: We recommend everyone run through a reinstall rather than attempt an inplace upgrade from CentOS-4 or CentOS-5 +++ LiveCD and LiveDVD LiveCDs and LiveDVDs for i386 and x86_64 will be released within the next few days. These will bring in the ability to directly install from the livemedia. +++ Minimal Install CD We have also created a minimal install CD, that would bring up a base machine with just enough content to have a usable platform. This CD image will be released in the next few days. +++ The LightWeightServer (LWS) CD In order to bring back the CentOS-4 Server CD style single iso image, we are creating a LWS varient of the main distro. Details for this will be posted in the next few days with release happening after the live media and the minimal cd editions. +++ Downloading CentOS-6.0 for new installs: When possible, consider using torrents to run the downloads. In most cases you will find its also the fastest means to download the distro. There are currently over a thousand people seeding CentOS-6 and it's possible to get upto 100mbps downloads via these torrents. Torrent files for the DVD's are avilable at : http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6.0/isos/i386/CentOS-6.0-i386-bin-DVD.torrent http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6.0/isos/x86_64/CentOS-6.0-x86_64-bin-DVD.torrent You can also use a mirror close to you : http://www.centos.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=30 Most mirrors will allow direct DVD downloads over http, ftp and rsync. Please keep in mind that not all mirrors are currently updated, some might take upto another 24 hours before they have all the content. +++ sha1sum for the CentOS-6.0 ISOS: i386: fcf49e875cd4494f2af68cf257ab9e93523c9427 CentOS-6.0-i386-bin-DVD.iso 862815623d2e7990207dd78a281837c7eb719e83 CentOS-6.0-i386-netinstall.iso x86_64: 9de87b0c696ebd72b952edb4cc06c24cbdc37d81 CentOS-6.0-x86_64-bin-DVD1.iso 5e3834621f11fbcca78cf7d70625c647045f45f5 CentOS-6.0-x86_64-bin-DVD2.iso 23f9e606cbcbd52d2e5df3716a85cdde336f7bfe CentOS-6.0-x86_64-netinstall.iso +++ Sources and Debuginfo packages: SRPMS and debuginfo packages are still making their way to the CentOS mirrors and should be available within the next 24 to 48 hours. We are prioritising the centos modified packages. +++ Getting Help: The best place to start when looking for help with CentOS is at the wiki ( http://wiki.centos.org/GettingHelp ) which lists various options and communities who might be able to help. If you think there is a bug in the system, do report it at http://bugs.centos.org/ - but keep in mind that the bugs system is *not* a support mechanism. +++ Contributing and joining the project: We are always looking for people to join and help with various things in the project. If you are keen to help out a good place to start is the wiki page at http://wiki.centos.org/Contribute . If you have questions or a specific area you would like to contribute towards that is not covered on that page, feel free to drop in on #centos-de...@irc.freenode.net for a chat or email the centos-devel list (http://lists.centos.org). +++ Thanks to everyone who contributed towards making 6.0 Enjoy! -- Karanbir Singh kbsi...@centos.org The CentOS Project {http://www.centos.org} irc: z00...@irc.freenode.net ( #centos, #centos-devel ) ___ CentOS-announce mailing list CentOS-announce@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-announce

I do not know where the mp3 playing ability came from. To me it really doesn't matter where it (and the DVD stuff) comes from -- it's just a one-time repository set up anyhow and then it updates itself. What Windows users don't realize is that most of their codecs come from the add-on applications that need to be installed. At least it did in XP (not sure about Vista and Vista 7). Try playing a DVD without installing PowerDVD or burning CDs or DVDs without Nero (for example). The reason most Windows' users don't run into this issue is because their computers usually come pre-installed with OEM software. If you install Linux Mint (for one) you never have to worry about any of this either. And it's only a minor issue with CentOS and those distributions that don't come with codecs (and Flash, etc) pre-installed. That is exactly why I intend to create Desktop version, regular CentOS with additional repositories and virtual package(s) pulling necessary real packages.

If something is going to change on the remote end without you knowing, or your provider is using an unmanaged switch then it's time to change provider :-) - they obviously are cheapskates and don't have any change management control on their systems. Gigabit is different. My reading of the spec is that when a port is configured for 1GbE over 1000BASE-T (copper), disabling auto-negotiation disables the advertising of the auto-negotiation for 10BASE-T and 100BASE-T, but auto-negotiation is still advertised and operational for 1GbE.

Your comment came across, at least to me, as if Red Hat had deliberately tried to make it harder to rebuild RHEL with some changes they made to 6, and that's simply not the case.

Fiber is not a CSMA/CD medium, it's a Point to Point medium - Duplex is meaningless. I've been referring to the Spec of 10/100 ports. For Gigabit ports 1000Base-T, auto-negotiation is mandatory. Quoting from Wikipedia [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonegotiation] Interoperability problems The first version of the autonegotiation specification, IEEE 802.3u, was open to different interpretations. Although most manufacturers implemented this standard in one way, some others, including network giant Cisco, implemented it in a different way. Autonegotiation between devices that implemented it differently failed. This led many network administrators to not depend on autonegotiation and instead manually set the speed and duplex mode of each network interface card. Even Cisco recommended its customers not to use autonegotiation. However, the use of manually set configuration often led to duplex mismatches, in particular when two connected devices are: * One manually set to half duplex and one manually set to full duplex * One set to autonegotiation and one manually set to full duplex * Both sides manually set to full duplex where one side still expects an autonegotiating link partner and the other side has autonegotiation completely disabled (the side that expects an autonegotiating link partner will fall back to half duplex because it does not detect a partner capable of full duplex)^[/citation needed/] Duplex mismatch problems are difficult to diagnose because the network is apparently working, and simple programs used for network tests such as ping report a valid connection; however, the network is much slower than expected. The debatable portions of the autonegotiation specifications were eliminated by the 1998 release of 802.3. This was later followed by the release of IEEE 802.3ab in 1999. The new standard specified that gigabit Ethernet over copper wiring requires autonegotiation. Currently, all network equipment manufacturers—including Cisco^[3] —recommend to use autonegotiation on all access ports. Cisco also recommends that you check back with them yearly for any potential changes in their recommendation as this has caused much confusion over the years. ^[4] In some large installations that have had to deal with negotiation issues, network staff may believe that autonegotiation doesn't work, and consider turning it off a best-practice. This should be avoided - once autonegotiation is turned off, it will not work by definition, creating a self-enforcing problem. -- Best Regards, Giles Coochey NetSecSpec Ltd NL T-Systems Mobile: +31 681 265 086 NL Mobile: +31 626 508 131 GIB Mobile: +350 5401 6693 Business Email: giles.cooc...@netsecspec.co.uk Email/MSN/Live Messenger: gi...@coochey.net Skype: gilescoochey smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I gave him a Suse Live CD - this was about 8 or 9 years ago I think, and then he decided to install it on his PC. Big mistake. He didn't know that to format your Hard Drive means it will completely wipe everything from it. So he lost all his data. We had some words and he wanted to sue me for ruining his business. And yes, the mistake I made, was that I didn't sit next to him 24/7 and spoon fed him. I thought he would be somewhat technically competent to understand what he's going todo with his PC. BUT, he wanted to save money on Microsoft licensing. P.S. Have you every tried to convert a MAC user, specifically a 3D graphic designer to anything other than MAC?

I've got two gigabit ethernet interfaces bonded in CentOS 5.6. I've set miimode=1000 and I've tried mode= 0, 4 and 6. I've not been able to get better than 112MB/sec, which is the same as the non-bonded interfaces. Most people misunderstand bonding/link aggregation. A single conversation travels over one link to avoid tcp reordering, link aggregation helps with multiple conversations if setup in non FT modes only. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

It took a lot of work to get it installed and configured on a system. I plan to run them both on 2 systems and see what happens. I look forward to the release of CentOS 6.1 soon also. Let me know where I can browse to see if I can help in any areas other than the torrent. If I have a T1 size pipe going out what is my max possible kB out?

Is this really the appropriate list for this type of political pontification? I was one mail away from being shunned as just another crackpot conspiracy theorist because I always look for ulterior motives. People who never been exposed to systematic lying can not comprehend the dept of lies or deceptions and are quick to dismiss anything that is not in their comfort zone. So my intention was to say that I been through a lot since I was 16-17, lied or deceived constantly and in order to stay sane and safe learned to view any appearance from multiple standpoints. But if I had said it like my last sentence, I would be challenged that it could not be so bad and that I must indeed be paranoid. So I added just a small part of what is sitting on my back and forming my opinion. The actual point I wanted to make is not what western world has done to my country, that has been, is now (Libya for instance) and will be, and I am not moping about that. But looking from the other side of the presented truth (by corporate media) I have witnessed deliberate and opened lies from every single news media from *every* country including mine and from politicians and corporations, so perception that (even) Red Hat is not trying to undermine those he sees as enemies/competitors is for me false. Since I can only speak from personal experience, I focused on events in my former and current country. For next few paragraphs forget parties involved and weigh the facts. This is can bee found somewhere on the net. For example, one picture from Bosnian war where you see Serbian soldiers in in front of the barb wire and hungry civilians behind it was presented to entire world as horrible genocide comparable to Nazi's. Truth: Serbian television responded to that picture by broadcasting video footage of that same barb wire at the same time at the same place. Video showed soldiers standing *inside* the small open storage surrounded by barb wire and civilians standing around it leaning on to the wire and talking to the members of the press, both western and local. Civilians were some starved refugees given food and crud shelter. I am sure you can find countless examples just like this one, in each war and on the every side of those wars. I for one have seen numerous accounts in last 20 years only in 600km radius (ex Yugoslavia). But we are oblivious to them and believe news media unless we actually witness some open lie, at witch time we forever stop trusting people explicitly.

I have no insight into what level of support the SL folks get from their sponsoring organization (CERN and Fermilab) but as far as I'm concerned getting the two releases out (5.6 and 6.0) was a dead heat between the two distributions. This is especially true if you consider that the SL team had the benefit of the CentOS team's experience with 5.6. I mention this because it indicates to me that the CentOS process isn't broken. On the other hand, if not getting 5.6 and 6.0 out sooner gets more people involved in helping, it may have long term benefits. These are just my observations on two different teams working to release the same two releases. Carefully consider what changes you make to the release process. Oh yeah, great job guys and, yes, I'll be moving the SL 6 boxes and VMs back to CentOS as time allows mainly because the community just isn't there for SL (most days the mailing list only has a dozen or so posts; most of them not very technical).

[CentOS] Upgrade from CentOS 5.x to 6.0
Great news about CentOS 6.0 being available, and I figured I'd ask the most obvious question, what can I expect when upgrading from CentOS 5.6 to 6.0? I have not had to go from one major version of CentOS to another so this is new territory for me. Is the processes just like an install except there's an Upgrade option? Does an upgrade do a yum update of everything installed? Most of my systems use EPEL and some the IUS repos...is there a way during the upgrade to just upgrade system components and leave things like PHP, httpd and MySQL alone for now? Any suggestions on monitoring the upgrade progress via syslog or some other method so I can see exactly what is being done during the upgrade? Thanks - Trey ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I also signed up for the SL mailing list. A couple of weeks ago (June 20th or so) the SL folks announced the availability of SL 5.6. I would interpret this as the SL team chose to work on 6.0 and left 5.6 for later while the CentOS team worked on 5.6 and left 6.0 for later. I have no insight into what level of support the SL folks get from their sponsoring organization (CERN and Fermilab) but as far as I'm concerned getting the two releases out (5.6 and 6.0) was a dead heat between the two distributions. This is especially true if you consider that the SL team had the benefit of the CentOS team's experience with 5.6. I mention this because it indicates to me that the CentOS process isn't broken. On the other hand, if not getting 5.6 and 6.0 out sooner gets more people involved in helping, it may have long term benefits. These are just my observations on two different teams working to release the same two releases. Carefully consider what changes you make to the release process. Oh yeah, great job guys and, yes, I'll be moving the SL 6 boxes and VMs back to CentOS as time allows mainly because the community just isn't there for SL (most days the mailing list only has a dozen or so posts; most of them not very technical).

You are advised to backup your old system, save all relevant parameters and personal data and do a clean install. I think CentOS 6.0 by default uses etx4 partitions that are better then old ext3, so I would advise total reformat of root partition (*after* backup) and fresh install on newly formated partition.

And the gigabit spec requires auto-negotiation. Let me make it clear - auto-negotiation only works if auto-negotiation is configured on both sides. Errr, auto-negotiation is normally the default. So it to be more clear, it works unless you break it by changing it only on one side. It does not work if one side hard codes the speed and duplex. Both sides have to be set for it to negotiate. Agreeing on speed and duplex ensures that it will work. That means both sides have to know about each other, whereas one side is networking equipment and the other is often host equipment, managed by different sets of people. And there is no need for them to agree/disagree or waste time thinking about it at all. The defaults should work. If something is going to change on the remote end without you knowing, or your provider is using an unmanaged switch then it's time to change provider :-) - they obviously are cheapskates and don't have any change management control on their systems. I'm not talking about 'providers', I'm talking about the people who set up network equipment vs. people who manage hosts. If the people managing the network equipment say negotiation needs to be off they are wrong, even if they claim to be the authority in the debate. Gigabit is different.

[CentOS] Installing OS on Flash Drive on Server
Hi All, On my gateway server I'm Installing CentOS on a flashdrive. is that a bad idea? the server keep hang, I can ping the server from the LAN and from the internet, the internet connection from LAN to internet is OK but another service is down, ssh, VPN (PPTPD) and another service. Even the console is unresponsive so I have to reset the server. Last time when I still can do SSH to server the / drive is mounted read only, when I try to remount rw it said error write protected but the flash drive itself have no write protection.
