Podrías hacer un spin de un CD o DVD de instalación CentOS, que tenga
opciones de autoconfiguración post-install, para que lo dejes trabajando y
te olvides de ese PC.

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_and_use_a_Live_CD

A priori, no recuerdo si la configuración varía mucho de la mostrada en
Fedora, pero debería no ser excesivamente distinta. La ventaja de tener un
ISO de instalación personalizado es que simplemente te creas un repositorio
local, haces que tus máquinas se actualicen en ese repo, y dejas corriendo
la instalación como si la estuvieras haciendo de forma manual, con lo que
puedes hacer una sola ISO para distintos computadores con distintos
componentes. Obviamente te creas una ISO de 32-bit y otra de 64-bit, con
sus respectivas aplicaciones y/o configuraciones especiales.

Re: [CentOS] openldap mmr + heartbeat hot standby

2012-05-25 Thread Benjamin Hackl
Dear Wessel,

I'd do the following.

give both servers a static non changing IP:

ldapA.yourdomain.tld, e.g. 10.0.0.1 on eth0
ldapB.yourdomain.tld, e.g. 10.0.0.2 on eth0

These two IPs will always be the same. You can access ldapA or ldapB
anytime via it's designated name.

For failover, use an alias:

ldap.yourdomain.tld, e.g. 10.0.0.3 on eth0:0 on the active node

Don't tell heartbeat of openldap and everything should be good.

 Hey folks,

 I used 'arcconf' to create a big RAID60 out of (see below).

 This should be about 20TB :

 Here is how I created it :
 
 ./arcconf create 1 logicaldrive name J4400-1-RAID60 max 60 0 0 0 1 0 2
...
 Make 1 big partition :
 
 sfdisk /dev/sdb EOF
 ,,L
 EOF

This is the problem, various filesystems issues are irrelevant. sfdisk only 
uses the old msdos type partition table and this does not support 2T 
devices. It is unfortunate that it lacks proper error checking and warnings...

You should do one of:

 1) don't use partitioning (mkfs directly on /dev/sdb)
 2) use LVM (pvcreate /dev/sdb ...)
 3) use a GPT type partition table (parted /dev/sdb or similar)

After this you'll have to tackle the current 16T limit for ext4 and other 
filesystem related oddities..

[CentOS] Dedup FS on 5.8

am considering putting a dedup FS onto it.  I know I've got about a TB

 You have both the i686 and x86_64 versions of glibc installed.  That
 error means that the repo you are trying to update from has a different
 version of i686 glibc and x86_64 glibc ... or you are trying to upgrade
 one (the x86_64 version) and not the other (the i686 version).

 Since multilib installs share some files (all the Documentation, etc.),
 that means you must install the same version of each arch if you install
 both i686 and x86_64 packages.
 Thank you very much for your response.

 But I'm afraid I'm not clear what action I can take.
 I don't like to remove any glibc or glibc-common packages,
 as I'm afraid it might have a disastrous effect,
 since they seem to be required by so many other packages,
 including the kernel.

 Based on your errors, what I would do is this:
 
 1.   You only need 1 version of glibc-common.x86_64.  The only way you
 could have gotten into this position is either your machine died in the
 middle of a yum update or someone force installed the later glibc-common
 via the rpm -i command.
 
 I would first try to install the yum-utils package with this command:

I do have this package installed.

 once that is installed, I would try:
 
 yum-complete-transaction

When I run this, an enormous list of packages (I think over 300)
that will be deleted appears, eg
-
--- Package kdelibs-common.x86_64 6:4.3.4-11.el6_1.4 will be erased
--- Package kernel.x86_64 0:2.6.32-220.2.1.el6 will be erased
--- Package kernel.x86_64 0:2.6.32-220.4.1.el6 will be erased
--- Package kernel.x86_64 0:2.6.32-220.7.1.el6 will be erased
--- Package kernel.x86_64 0:2.6.32-220.13.1.el6 will be erased
-
But before I can answer yes or no, the command fails with
-
Error: Trying to remove yum, which is protected
-
I still get this error if I say yum-complete-transaction --exclude=yum

 I would figure out exactly what packages I had installed for glibc and
 get them all on one version ... you need to be careful with glibc (and
 its sub packages) ... it is the most important package on your machine.

The only glibc* packages listed in /var/log/yum.* are 64-bit, eg
-
[tim@alfred ~]$ sudo grep glibc /var/log/yum*
/var/log/yum.log:Feb 07 02:20:29 Updated: glibc-
common-2.12-1.47.el6_2.5.x86_64
/var/log/yum.log:Feb 07 02:20:45 Updated: glibc-2.12-1.47.el6_2.5.x86_64
...
/var/log/yum.log:Mar 17 17:51:11 Updated: glibc-
common-2.12-1.47.el6_2.9.x86_64
/var/log/yum.log:Mar 17 17:51:24 Updated: glibc-2.12-1.47.el6_2.9.x86_64
...
/var/log/yum.log:May 22 11:38:50 Installed: glibc-2.12-1.47.el6_2.9.x86_64


I haven't deliberately installed any versions other than these.
This is on a server running CentOS-6.2 (in another country),
and I never say anything relevant on it except sudo yum update.

 How I would do this is that I would download all the RPMs for the latest
 version of all the packages you have installed ... for me that would be:
 
 glibc-devel-2.12-1.47.el6_2.12.x86_64.rpm
 glibc-headers-2.12-1.47.el6_2.12.x86_64.rpm
 glibc-2.12-1.47.el6_2.12.i686.rpm
 glibc-common-2.12-1.47.el6_2.12.x86_64.rpm
 glibc-2.12-1.47.el6_2.12.x86_64.rpm
 nscd-2.12-1.47.el6_2.12.x86_64.rpm

After yum-update the server tried to download the 2.12 versions,
but wasn't able to for the same above reason:

I have them all on another server also running CentOS-6.2:

[tim@grover ~]$ sudo grep glibc /var/log/yum.log*
...
/var/log/yum.log:May 11 13:58:46 Updated: glibc-
common-2.12-1.47.el6_2.12.x86_64
/var/log/yum.log:May 11 13:59:20 Updated: glibc-2.12-1.47.el6_2.12.x86_64
/var/log/yum.log:May 11 13:59:54 Updated: glibc-
headers-2.12-1.47.el6_2.12.x86_64
/var/log/yum.log:May 11 13:59:59 Updated: glibc-
devel-2.12-1.47.el6_2.12.x86_64
/var/log/yum.log:May 11 14:01:44 Updated: glibc-2.12-1.47.el6_2.12.i686

so I could copy them from there, and forcefully install them?

 Once I had them all in the same directory, I would try a:
 
 rpm -Uvh *.rpm
 
 then I would look at the errors
 
 based on those errors (if it does not install) then I would likely do:
 
 rpm -Uvh --force *.rpm
 
 that will LIKELY clean up your rpm issues for glibc ...

 I think I understand how it occurred.
 I tried to yum-remove a package

 and I was told that 300+ packages would be removed.
 I wasn't sure it I would be asked yes/no to this

Have you tried yum clean all?

The rpmforge ones are fairly easy:

$ rpm -qa | grep '\.rf$'

but epel doesn't use the repotag, so I'm not sure how to do it.

Any suggestions?

[CentOS] PCI/DSS compliance on CentOS

2012-05-25 Thread Arun Khan
I have a client project to implement PCI/DSS compliance.

The PCI/DSS auditor has stipulated that the web server, application
middleware (tomcat), the db server have to be on different systems.
In addition the auditor has also stipulated that there be a NTP
server, a patch server,

The Host OS on all of the above nodes will be CentOS 6.2.

Below is a list of things that would be necessary.

1. Digital Certificates for each host on the PCI/DSS segment
2. SELinux on each Linux host in the PCI/DSS network segment
3. Tripwire/AIDE on each Linux host in the PCI/DSS segment
4. OS hardening scripts (e.g. Bastille Linux)
5. Firewall
6. IDS (Snort)
6. Central “syslog” server

However, beyond this I would appreciate any comments/feedback /
suggestion if you or your organization has undergone a PCI/DSS audit
and what are the gotchas that you encountered, especially with respect
to CentOS/ open source stack.

I came across this which kind of brings out issues between the
implementer and the PCI/DSS auditor.

Ossec (www.ossec.net) can do this.

Some hardening needed.

Ossec can do this

Ossec server with samhain is good solution for that.

 Hey folks,

 I have a Sun J4400 SAS1 disk array with 24 x 1T drives in it connected
 to a Sunfire x2250 running 5.8 ( 64 bit )

You can perhaps think about using GFS apart from XFS

[CentOS] Mysterious versioning reported by file command

2012-05-25 Thread Frank Cox
I just noticed this, which doesn't actually seem to affect anything but does
create a mystery:

[frankcox@mutt temp]$ cat test.c
#include stdio.h
int main(void)
{
printf(Hello world\n);
return 0;
}
[frankcox@mutt temp]$ gcc -o test test.c
[frankcox@mutt temp]$ file test
test: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked
(uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.18, not stripped
[frankcox@mutt temp]$ uname -a
Linux mutt.melvilletheatre.net 2.6.32-220.17.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed May 16
00:01:37 BST 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Why does the output from file say Linux 2.6.18 when the actual kernel in use
is 2.6.32?

Re: [CentOS] PCI/DSS compliance on CentOS

 wow, seems like quite a lot.

 What level of PCI/DSS compliance are you going for?

I have to check this with the client.   Credit card information will
be encrypted and stored in client's own db.

 The only other thing I might add

 Are you hosting the hardware? If it's
 hosted else where then the facility that's
 hosting the hardware needs to be PCI/DSS complaint.

The client will be hosting it on their own office premise (the
physical security aspect is being handled by another vendor).

Thanks,

 In addition the auditor has also stipulated that there be a NTP

Usually you also need to implement WAF (web application firewall) on
front of public webservers.

I think cheapest solution is use mod_security*) on apache and then
proxy valid requests to tomcat.

 I have to check this with the client.   Credit card information will

Yup, this is exactly what they don't want people to do and
I believe in the future they'll strive for just a handful
of processors that will meet there criteria.

 The client will be hosting it on their own office premise (the
 physical security aspect is being handled by another vendor).


I'm sure I'm talking way over my head at this point but
this must be for a fairly large merchant (1M+ transactions yearly).

Not quite sure why one wouldn't use one of processors gateway 
facilities, there's convenient api's that would handle anything to do
with cc's and at a small fraction of the price to set up and maintain.

really bad. Usually this kind of systems are located in really secured
datacenters.
