I've bought two SAN devices in the past couple years, both run Debian and both are tier 1 enterprise storage arrays. Of course you wouldn't know they ran Debian or linux unless you tried to telnet to them on port 22 and saw the SSH banner. http://www.3par.com/inservtclass/ My active-active NAS head units runs CentOS 4.4 on IBM hardware (back end disk storage provided by above array) http://www.exanet.com/default.asp?contentID=209 > How would it compare to commercial SAN devices, Thecus N8800SAS > (http://www.thecus.com/products_over.php?cid=11&pid=177&set_language=english) > or something similar to these? > > I would probably use hardware RAID 10, and could go with either SAS / > SATA, and then probably offer iSCSI, Samba.

If you use a purpose-built appliance OS it should be pretty comparable, e.g. openfiler or freenas(bsd based?) to something like a Thecus. I used openfiler about 1.5 years ago mostly for iSCSI and it worked ok, at one point had 4 shelves of HP MSA SCSI disk drives attached to it each connected to dedicated RAID cards on an older HP DL585. I'm looking to get a Thecus N770 myself pretty soon, mainly for the smaller integrated form factor with many drive bays. nate ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

These aren't centos based - or even all linux, but the software-NAS players are: http://www.openfiler.com/ http://www.freenas.org/ http://www.nexenta.com/corp/index.php?option=com_content&task=blogsection&id=4&Itemid=67 Or you can just use a generic disto with separate configuration commands for each protocol. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] using Linux as a NAS / SAN device
Hi, I'm looking at using Linux as a NAS / SAN device, and would like some input from other's who have done this before? How would it compare to commercial SAN devices, Thecus N8800SAS (http://www.thecus.com/products_over.php?cid=11&pid=177&set_language=english) or something similar to these?

Yes, there is the font rendering settings (monochrome/best shapes/best contrast/subpixel smoothing [LCD]), and smoothing, hinting and subpixel order advanced settings. You can set those by running the "gnome-font-properties" program (included in the "control-center" RPM). It's possible to do those settings manually by tweaking /etc/fonts/fonts.conf or ~/.fonts.conf, but it's a XML file with arcane syntax... You can try to remove any ~/.fonts.conf if you have any and see if that makes a difference. HTH, Filipe ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I have Thunderbird using the msttcorefonts. Should rpm -qi freetype show both my built version and the other one as well? I don't remember how I ended up with the slightly older verison, but I can try updating. There's got to be some setting I'm missing that makes the fonts look just a bit better, because I think they still look rough.

What should > I do? If you have problems on 32-bit applications (I, for instance, used to run a 32-bit Firefox on a 64-bit machine to get Flash support without nspluginwrapper) you should build a 32-bit RPM and install it too. You can do that with this command: $ LDFLAGS=-m32 rpmbuild --target i386 -bb freetype.spec You might need to install glibc-devel.i386 and libX11-devel.i386 to build that one. I also noticed that you rebuilt 2.2.1-20 while 2.2.1-21.el5_3 is available, you might want to update it to the latest. I actually had a look at your last screenshot, and it does not seem too bad... It looks like the quality is already much better, I believe BCI is already working for you.

Of course I wouldn't it. I think that the comparison has little to do. Windows it's very different from Linux. MS it's product developed by an only company and closed souce. I think that the difference from using some distro with different kernel is far smaller that running "Vista" apps on Windows 95.

I have all type stuff that is not needed like bluetooth and etc. This is a server, so I know that bluetooth is not need but I don't have any other menus to remove software when install from cd.

The current kernel used by Red Hat in RHEL 4 is a 2.6.9-x kernel and it has 1973 patches. The one currently in use in RHEL 5 is a 2.6.18-x kernel with 2882 patches. Many packages are compiled against kernel-headers and depend on the proc structure that is there. SELinux is just one of many issues you will have if you try to use a main line kernel on CentOS. You will need to have several of the Red Hat patches (modified to work with the new kernel tree) incorporated in order to use a newer kernel on CentOS. If you absolutely have to have a newer kernel (you should not do this ... but hey, it IS your machine) ... then instead of trying to use a main line kernel, instead try to use the latest one from here: ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/RHEMRG/SRPMS/ This kernel has been tested for use with RHEL-5 and is 2.6.24-x. You still might have issues, but they should be far fewer than running a main line kernel on CentOS. Would you, if you boss told you he wanted you to, try to make the Windows Vista system files run on Windows 95?

Short Answer: You will both be better off looking at a non-enterprise operating system. If the company has standardized on CentOS for long term support they could look at Fedora for this one off and then use CentOS-6 when that comes out. Long Answer: You would need to basically compile newer glibc, newer ldconfig, gcc, etc etc etc until at which point you have a base Fedora-11 system and some CentOS stuff that might still work (but highly unlikely). -- Stephen J Smoogen.

With mock available to build a chroot which contains only the exact required packages to build the code in question, I see no reason not to use it all the time when building. This prevents stray links to things you are not interested in anyway. That is how all packages are built in the fedora-rhel-centos world right now. In practice these kind of issues always come up when there are lots of i386 packages on an x86_64 machine, so why not build all code in a pure chroot? signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Hello Michael,
glad that you managed to migrate to the new server.
If testsaslauthd gives an OK, this just means that saslauthd is running
and could verify the given credentials against the backend. If that
backend (-a) is shadow, then auth is checked against system users within
the shadow file. If the backend is pam, then a more complex setup is
possible. Besides checking too against system users in shadow, PAM could
be configured to test against an SQL database or an LDAP server.
If testsaslauthd is successful, it does not mean that Postfix client auth
must be successful too. That's because Postfix can be configured to use a
different authentication scheme: like as you did to use cyrus-sasl's
auxprop or even to use dovecot's sasl.
You can easily imagine a situation where the admin fills a sasldb with
users and their password and where all these users can be found as well as
system accounts within the shadow file. It may be intention by the admin
or just lack of understanding. Postfix using cyrus-sasl may be configured
to auth against the sasldb data, while saslauthd would work as well. (Here
with the difference that usernames in sasldb are of format
where using saslauthd -a shadow the usernames can just
be .)
You may counter check what the smtpd.conf file contained on your old host.
It could be that saslauthd was the primary mechanism, but set as well the
option "auto_transition". You find that explained in
/usr/share/doc/cyrus-sasl*/options.html. Running that it will fill the
sasldb by itself. So you may have the impression that sasldb was your
primary authentication pool.
One final note: For cyrus-sasl using auxprop with plugin sasldb is the
default and fault back. If nothing is configured or the configured setup
fails, then cyrus-sasl test with auxprop and sasldb.
Best regards
Alexander
