They are mostly an ubuntu lts shop, so 1st question What advantages does the RH/CentOS world have (if any?) over the ubuntu LTS world? There is a famous quote: If ain't broke, dont fix it https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/if_it_ain't_broke,_don't_fix_it If you have documentation, plugins, configuration all working with some flavor of a distribution, ease your work. They are talking about running the server on a vm, as I have no experience with this tool, is that appropriate? or does it really need some hardware resources to function properly? If a vm is okay, what kind of RAM does it need? We run our monitoring tools (Nagios, Collectd, Munin,...) all on VMs. It is ideologically OK to run this kind of service on a VM. About ressources, VM are extensible: begin with small ressources, extend when needed. I see epel has nagios 3.5.1 with a date of 2013 for CentOS7 along with plugins, is this the version folk use? - as the latest from nagios is 4.0.8 I am under orders to use packages and not compile, a viewpoint I endorse. Are there other repos folk use? Packaging has advantages and drawbacks. On the other hand, packages are built from compiling sources. Some repos can be trusted for their packages quality, but some others might be personnal repos that might work only for the packager use case.

On RHEL 7, after editing the ifcfg file, nothing short of a reboot seems to get it to use that config.

I need to reboot to get the new config to work. Then answered by Ryan Sawhill : A little late, but the command you're missing (if you're using NM) is: * |nmcli connection reload| Which can be shortened to: * |nmcli c r| That will reload the ifcfg files after manual edits. From there if you want to re-up a connection whose file you changed, you need to manually do so with another |nmcli connection| command, e.g.: * |nmcli c up System eno1| Note that you don't actually need to take an interface down first, like in the old days (e.g., with |ifdown eth0| followed by |ifup eth0|).

# samba -d3 -i -M single
The problem is I want to launch it via an init script (centos6)

I dont get the same verbose output in any log file in /var/log/samba/
How to get the same verbosity in a log file when launching samba from an
init script?
BTW, I dont understand what is the difference between

Is there a cleaner way?

just the package name.

[CentOS] LVM: PV on 2 external USB drives

This is not for a very secure storage, just for a low reliability quantity temporary one: I just need it to work for 3-4 weeks with potential power cycles.

[CentOS] configure network bridge listing bridged intefaces
Hi all, Having a 4 NIC server, I want to bridge eth2 and eth3, with a bridge named br0. Searching the web I only found about creating a file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-br0, but did not find where to explicitely list what ports will be bridged. Where is it configured? Thank you. -- RMA. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
