Re: [CentOS] Who maintains php-pgsql package? I want to ask about using PostgreSQL 8.4 library instead of PostgreSQL 8.1.

[CentOS] GPL question
Hi All; I have a GPL question - sorry if it's way off topic. We're pushing on a system that collects a variety of data points and pulls them into a single report. One of the modules we use is a 3rd party tool that generates an html report which equates to one of the pages on the report that's then delivered to the customer. In this scenario is the code that generates all the other modules/pages of the report subject to the GPL as well?

Hi All; I have a laptop running the workstation version of Linux from RedHat.

Hi all; I have a Dell 2900 with a single Quad core chip and an expansion slot for a second Quad core chip. I have CentOS 5.4 installed on the server now.

[CentOS] Linux backup help
Hi All; I'm awaiting a new linux laptop that will be my primary work machine. I want to implement a strategy that allows me as easily as possible to revert back to a former state. My primary concern is a scenario where I apply system updates and it breaks something that for me is critical. I wonder if a simple rsync script would work. If so, here's what I'm thinking: 1) updates are available so I execute the rsync script which pulls any updated files from my laptop to a backup server/drive 2) apply updates 3) if something breaks (even if I can no longer login) I boot the laptop, run the rsync script in the opposite direction (push files from the backup drive to the laptop) I assume that if I were to execute step 3 above that my system would be in the exact state that it was before I ran the updates. Is this a correct assumption ? Are there better approaches ? Thanks in advance.. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] RAID / OS Monitoring tools ?
Hi List; I just got a new server (my first **real** server). It's a dell 2900 : quad core XEON (with a spare slot for a 2nd quad core chip) 8G memory (expandable to 64G) 8 hot swap SATA HD slots onboard PERC6i RAID controller etc I initially setup the system / RAID as follows: 1) booted off the dell setup CD 2) walked through the RAID setup and formatted the drives 3) the setup bombed when it asked for a RHEL install media (I suspect cause I gave it a CentOS 5 install DVD instead) 4) powered off 5) restarted the box with the CentOS DVD in the drive and installed CentOS 5 The RAID configuration was as I had set it up in the DELL setup cd so I'm happy. Now I want to be able to monitor the box, specifically with respect to the RAID drives so I'll know if one has gone bad and the RAID configuration has failed over to it. Anyone have any suggestions for tools to use ? Thanks in advance... ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
[CentOS] Multiple Linux instances on the same box - dual/triple/etc boot ?
Hi List; I have a new dev server. As an independent consultant I want to maximize it's use. Some of my clients use RedHat/CentOS 64 bit, others Redhat/CentOS 32bit, some are even using Fedora and Debian. Here's my thought: I'd like to install each OS/version into it's own space on the disk. I'm thinking all I have to do is install one OS (say CentOS 64bit) and partition say 20% of the disk. Then once the install is done, boot into the latest fedora disk and do the same, etc. Is this correct ? Later I want to add a disk array and allocate a RAID mount point that can be mounted by any of the installed Linux'es when it's active. Is this do-able ? Easily ?
