[CentOS] Strange httpd problem
Hi, I'm currently setting up an IP accouting machine using CentOS 6 and pmacct, compiled from source. The machine has two network interfaces : - a "normal" one, used for SSH remote administration and viewing the accouting data through a webserver (eth0) - a "monitor" one, plugged into a mirroring port of our switch and with no IP address defined (eth1) The accouting part works fine, but I'm getting problems with the webserver. To ensure there are no interference with the monitor interface, I set iptables to drop all the outbound traffic on eth1 and httpd in bound to the IP address of eth0, but I randomly become unable to contact the webserver; my browser tells me it couldn't contact it. The SSH access works fine and the CPU and memory usage are OK (5% CPU and 10% memory, our network is currently on low traffic). Any clues why this is happening ?

Re: [CentOS] fyi: RHEL 5.7 is out

Re: [CentOS] [OT] would any of you recommend a ticketing system?
FWIW, I've been using Indefero for quite a while, might suit some of your needs.

Re: [CentOS] Repositories for CentOS 6
Well, just like you could use any RHEL5 repo with CentOS 5, any RHEL6 should be compatible with CentOS 6. If you're looking for names, this can be useful : http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories 2011/7/12 Edson - PMSS > Which extra repositories can be used with CentOS 6? > > -- > Edson D.

Re: [CentOS] Switch from SL -> Centos
CentOS has the complete RHEL binary compatibility, which SL doesn't always have.

Re: [CentOS] Am I being to paranoid?
My 2 cents : OSSEC is quite good at actively blocking attackers in
situations like this.

Re: [CentOS] I have RHel6. How does that turn into Centos 6?
On top of that, it just seems logical granted the RHEL binary compatibility thing. It's used by many apps to detect the distro you're using, so... 2011/4/29 John Hinton > On 4/29/2011 1:46 PM, Digimer wrote: > > On 04/29/2011 01:26 PM, Todd Rinaldo wrote: > >> I've always been surprised that CentOS ships /etc/redhat-release given > >> the above paragraph. > > Probably a programmatic requirement, if I was the betting type. > > > I could easily be confused as it has been so long now...

Re: [CentOS] Colour laser printer
Dunno what your needs are but I just baught a Samsung CLP-310 which works like a charm with a headless Debian Squeeze box and shared with CUPS, so it should work well with CentOS. You'll have to use the Samsung driver instead of splix, doesn't goes well with that model. 2010/10/5 Stephen Harris > On Tue, Oct 05, 2010 at 09:03:55AM -0400, fred smith wrote: > > I have no experience with color printers from Brother, but I'm extremely > > happy with my monochrome Brother laser printer.

Re: [CentOS] GRUB woes: GRUB Hard Disk Error
Can't you put the SATA drive on native instead of IDE in your bios ? It decreases performance and could be problematic. 2010/9/19 Keith Roberts > On Sun, 19 Sep 2010, Rob Del Vecchio wrote: > > > To: centos@centos.org > > From: Rob Del Vecchio > > Subject: Re: [CentOS] GRUB woes: GRUB Hard Disk Error > > > > Update: on a hunch, I tried installing Ubuntu Server.
