Re: [CentOS] scripting CPAN installs

2010-04-20 Thread Tomas Ruprich
I think this could be done by

cpan o conf prerequisites_policy follow
cpan o conf commit

and then set

env PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT=1 cpan
or 
env PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT=1 perl -MCPAN -e shell

Re: [CentOS] scripting CPAN installs

2010-04-16 Thread Tomas Ruprich
Hi,
i don't know exactly if this would be usable for yourself, but very nice
feature for our purposes is autobundling, see for example:
http://search.cpan.org/~andk/CPAN-1.9402/lib/CPAN.pm#POPULATE_AN_INSTALLATION_WITH_LOTS_OF_MODULES
or
http://www.developertutorials.com/tutorials/cgi-perl/automate-perl-module-deployment-050426/page4.html


As for RPMs, it could be sometimes problem with versions. RPMs aren't
often the most recent versions of modules and resolving RPM dependencies
could sometimes overwrite the most uptodate versions (which you need) by
slightly older which may not be applicable. But this really depends...

Sorry, sent too soon.
As for your problem with not knowing if the module was succesfully

after each install.

Re: [CentOS] How to log separate files or directories for centralizing SysLog server ?

2010-04-12 Thread Tomas Ruprich
Hi James,
i think much better for syslog server usage is syslog-ng. It has bit
more difficult configuration for such a small network, but it brings
much more functionalities.

the simple ruleset for your needs could look like:

source s_sys { unix-stream(/dev/log); internal(); };
source s_net { udp(); };

destination d_net { file(/var/log/network/$HOST/$YEAR.$MONTH.log
owner(root) group(root) perm(0600) dir_perm(0700) create_dirs(yes)); };

log { source(s_net); destination(d_net); };
log { source(s_sys); destination(d_net); };

Hope it helps,
Tomas

Never (if you aren't guru) edit your iptables by directly editing your
config. Always use iptables binary.

It is said there... -t option shouldn't be on that line. The line should 
be only 
-A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 26 -j REDIRECT --to-port 25
because you're already in the *nat section of the config.

But again, you should enter this command instead of editing the config:
iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -p tcp --dport 26 -j REDIRECT --to-port 25

Re: [CentOS] logical volume over NFS permissions problem

2009-06-30 Thread Tomas Ruprich
Hi, it is exactly as you're writing, thanks for help.

I've been trying to solve it with NFSv4 for a short while, but it 
behaved the same way. So at last, i configured autofs, which is 
mounting all the logical volume mountpoints itself.

Just for the others, here's the way i configured autofs:
[r...@client]# echo /net /etc/auto.escience  /etc/auto.master
[r...@client]# echo * -rw,intr,soft,timeo=300,tcp,rsize=32768,wsize=32768 
nfs_server:/export/escience/  /etc/auto.escience
[r...@client]# service autofs restart

[r...@client]# touch /net/name_of_the_share


Thanks again Filipe.

 Hi,
 
 2009/6/25 Tomas Ruprich rupr...@uikt.mendelu.cz:
  i've problem with mounting logical volumes over NFS.
 
 You are mounting /export/escience and you want to access
 /export/escience/vv_25 which is another filesystem. NFS (v2 and v3)
 does not work that way, if you export and mount /export/escience, you
 will get only the files in that filesystem and not in filesystems
 mounted below it. It does not traverse mount points.
 
 To achieve what you want, you have to export and mount
 /export/escience/vv_25 explicitely.
 
 Or you can investigate NFSv4, which AFAIR works the way you are trying
 to use, but it has many differences from NFSv3 and there is some
 learning curve involved.
 
 HTH,
 Filipe

[CentOS] logical volume over NFS permissions problem

2009-06-25 Thread Tomas Ruprich
Hi all,
i've problem with mounting logical volumes over NFS. 

On NFS server, i have following logical volume
[r...@nfs_server ~]# lvdisplay
  --- Logical volume ---
  LV Name/dev/escience/vv_25
  VGnfs_servernfs_servernfs_servernfs_servernfs_server  escience
  LV UUIDiMhNq7-iC7L-VTDO-Xcwv-a6yv-sEAD-EZWASV
  LV Write Accessread/write
  LV Status  available
  # open 0
  LV Size5.00 GB
  Current LE 1280
  Segments   1
  Allocation inherit
  Read ahead sectors auto
  - currently set to 256
  Block device   253:2


This logical volume is mounted on NFS server, the group information is 
taken from LDAP server.
[r...@nfs_server ~]# mount | grep vv_25
/dev/mapper/escience-vv_25 on /export/escience/vv_25 type ext3 (rw)
[r...@nfs_server ~]# ls -ld /export/escience/vv_25
drwxrwx--- 3 root vv153 4096 Jun 24 16:04 /export/escience/vv_25


But when i mount /export/escience on the nfs client, i'm missing all the
permissions and ownership informations:
[r...@client ~]# mount.nfs nfs_server:/export/escience/ /mnt/escience
[r...@client ~]# ls -ld /mnt/escience/vv_25
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2009-06-24 16:04 vv_25


The setting of NFS exports is following:
[r...@nfs_server ~]# cat /etc/exports
/export/escience client(rw,sync,no_root_squash)
[r...@nfs_server ~]# exportfs -v
/export/escience 
client(rw,wdelay,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,anonuid=65534,anongid=65534)


Server is running latest CentOS 5.3
[r...@nfs_server ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 5.3 (Final)
[r...@nfs_server ~]# uname -a
Linux nfs_server 2.6.18-128.1.14.el5 #1 SMP Wed Jun 17 06:38:05 EDT 2009 x86_64 
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

No denials from selinux, client's IP is completely opened on firewall. 

Is there some possibility to debug the NFS mount process? I don't see
nothing more then verbose mode in man, which doesn't provide much 
informations :( Or is it some configuration issue?

 resource that is shared and there will never be a need for shared
 storage.  Eventually we may want to monitor processes for health
 (probably just read in pid file) and it would be great if the
 recommended software had this ability as well but not completely
 necessary.  The process monitoring part is just me trying to think ahead
 but it definitely wouldn't be needed in the near future.
 
 Ideally, this should be light weight user land code that hopefully

 I had originally considered heartbeat but just didn't know if version 2
 was overkill.  It's a pretty capable package and I just didn't want to
 get in over my head for this project.  Is version 2 still pretty simple
 if you want it to be?
 

Well, exactly as you say... if you want it to be, it can be still pretty 
simple :) 

I don't know any software which could be simplier and still so reliable

Re: [CentOS] Directory index forbidden by rule: /var/www/html/

2007-10-09 Thread Tomas Ruprich
Directory index is a feature of apache, which:
 - if there is a file named in DirectoryIndex directive (usually
   index.html) in the requested directory, then show it (i think this is
made by mod_dir)
 - if not, then create a list of files, if you have mod_autoindex loaded
   and Options +Indexes in directory configuration
(I recommend http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_dir.html and
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_autoindex.html)

I believe, this comes because your /var/www/html contains no index
mentioned in DirectoryIndex rule. What is the content of /var/www/html?

[CentOS] strange chgrp behavior

2007-08-30 Thread Tomas Ruprich
Greetings,
i had a following problem, which on one side i have already solved, but
on other side i don't thing it should behave this way and wish somebody to 
tell if it is feature or bug ;-)

[EMAIL PROTECTED] home]# chown user user/
[EMAIL PROTECTED] home]# ls -ld /home/user
drwxr-xr-x  66 user staff 4096 /home/user
[EMAIL PROTECTED] home]# chgrp -R staff user/
[EMAIL PROTECTED] home]# ls -ld user/
drwxr-xr-x  66 root staff 4096 user/
  ^^

I've been working on it hole afternoon, playing with user permissions,
moving home directories to others, debugging selinux and other things,
but at last, it was caused by

[EMAIL PROTECTED] home]# ls -la user/.openoffice/user/work
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 13 Aug 28 14:35 user/.openoffice/user/work - /home/user

When i remove this symlink, everything works fine.

I tried this on CentOS 4.4 and 4.5 with 
coreutils-5.2.1-31.4 and
coreutils-5.2.1-31.6
and both are doing this. CentOS 5 with 
coreutils-5.97-12.1.el5
is already fine.

I've been searching through coreutils gnu.org archives, but found
nothing (maybe i'm not so experienced seeker ;-))

Thanks

  I just can say that I had the same problem with centos 4.5.
  Seems that centos is a little buggy on this.
  
  and which bug is that again in the centos bug tracker?
 
 I personally didn't enter a bug, as my research on the subject showed
 a lot of discussion in the Fedora distro as to what this tool was
 really supposed to be doing.  It isn't included in the upstream v5
 release, but is due to get re-included at a later time once things
 are sorted out.
 
 I think this is rather like the Xen offering -- the bare bones of a
 good/useful idea that needs more work before it's ready for general
 use.  I'm sure it will be usable in the future, just not today.
 
 I have access to, but have not tried, the upstream product.  If I get
 a chance I will and if it functions differently than the CentOS
 offering I will enter a bug; any other problems are more likely
 upstream problems.
 

Hi,
i'm not familiar with precisely this solution, but i've been solving 
something similar few months ago...

I think the best thing you should do when searching for the reason is 
going step after step after the mount of pivot root. There must be some
script on the tftp server, where the mount of the pivot root and
snapshot is executed... so find it and then start shell right after it.

This gives you enough space for finding what is happening and trying how
to fix or find the bug (if it is a bug ;-))

best regards
