Estimados,
Por favor requiero de su colaboración.
desde hace 2 días intento instalar CentOS 5 en una placa intel DP965LT 
con 3 discos SATA, pero hasta el momento no logro instalarlo.
El problema que tengo es que durante la instalación solo me reconoce 2 
discos pero el tercer disco no me reconoce, requiero tener los tres 
discos para configurarlo en Raid 5.


Gracias de antemano por su colaboración.

Gracias por responder
Te comento que ya intente con todas estas opciones y aun asi no me 
reconoce el tercer disco en la instalación, lo extraño es que en el bios 
de la placa me reconoce los tres discos y no asi en la instalación de linux.

[CentOS-es] Hola a Todos ...Consejos

2007-09-20 Thread Dioblán Rufín
Hola, Colegas.

Resulta que hace algun tiempo que estaba alejado de la administracion de redes 
y ahora comence de nuevo y me encuentro que todos los servidores de la empresa 
son Windows (todos los dias dan problemas) y quiero quitarme todo esto de 
arriba. 

Tengo la instalacion de CentOS 5 y esto ha cambiado mucho desde que lo deje en 
RedHat 7.1 y necesito algunos consejos:

1. Puedo con el desarrollo actual que tiene Linux quitar el PDC de Windows y 
activar samba y que las estaciones Windows se autentifiquen en linux 
normalmente ? Que necesito para eso ?
2. En la actualidad hay Exchange para el correo electronico, antiguamente 
utilizaba sendmail pero hay nuevas aplicaciones de correo y queria ver cual de 
ellas es la mejor o mas completa en estos momentos, pues tengo varios tipos de 
usuarios y con diferentes tipos de alcance en la mensajeria, hay algunos que 
solo pueden enviar dentro de la empresa, otros con alcance nacional y 
determinados dominios y direcciones y los restantes sin ninguna restriccion, 
ademas quiero eliminar el Outlook y poner una interfase web para tener mas 
control y quitarme problemas de encima.
3. De proxy tengo un ISA que no es muy amigable para mi, prefiero squid pero 
hay algunas cosas que nunca hice con squid, por ejemplo yo antiguamente al 
usuario que podia navegar pues podia navegar, pero el problema es la navegacion 
aqui es por tipo de usuario, hay pcs que pueden navegar por la intranet de la 
empresa, otros que pueden tener acceso a publicaciones y sitios especificos y 
los demas acceso completo, tambien hay usuarios que pueden usar gestores de 
descargas como DAP, GetRigth, etc y otros NO, o sea, pueden tener navegacion 
pero no se les debe permitir descargar nada. Esto antes se hacia con las ACL 
pero ahora no se que nivel de personalizacion pueda lograr con ello.
4. Necesito algun servicio de comunicacion SIP, hay montado OfficeLive pero 
quizas pueda lograrse algun otro mejor que permita crear salas de chat, o 
brinde mas opciones.
5. Tengo varias aplicaciones hechas en Foxpro para DOS, Visual Basic 6, Access 
y demas. Queria probar alguna pc con Ubuntu y correr alguna de estas 
aplicaciones, me comentaron que habia cierto emulador para esto pero lo 
desconozco, alguien podria aclararme que hay de cierto en esto; esto es con el 
objetivo de hacer algunas pruebas y ver si tambien me quito el dichoso windows 
de las estaciones de trabajo.

Bueno, estas son algunas dudas que tengo despues de tanto tiempo. Espero sus 
acertados consejos...

slds,

Dioblan

[CentOS-es] desarrollo de aplicacion grande

2007-09-20 Thread Graciela Urquieta
Hola, miren nuevamente acudo a uds. para ver que me puedan colaborar y
brindar sugerencias sobre lo siguiente:

Acabo de ingresar a trabajar a un empresa, en la cual se tiene
previsto desarrollar una gran aplicacion financiera (por los modulos
de que se componen sera una aplicacion de buen tamaño). Resulta que
las personas que finaciaran este desarrollo, tienen casi decidido
afrontar este desarrollo en .net(sqlserver+c#+asp.net) principalmente
por temas de rapidez en el desarrollo, obviamnete algunos de los
desarrolladores tenemos la mision de cambiar esta decision y plantear
el uso de SL, segun la distribucion de la empresa y sus sucursales se
tendria el siguiente entorno:

* aplicacion en entorno web (indispensable)
* 1 oficina central
* 20 a 25 surcursales (20 a 30 usuarios cada una)
* conexion por medio de adsl de 256,512, 1Mb (Segun la posibilidad de
acceso en cada sucursal)
* se dispondra de clientes remotos internacionalmente (via internet)

Se tiene previsto disponer un servidor (aplicacion+BD) en cada una
para mejorar el acceso a la aplicacion por parte de los usuarios
locales y hacer que estos no sientan el fecto de su velocidad de
acceso (entre la of central y su sucursal que puede ser baja), pero
por debajo hacer que los servidores de las sucursales se sincronicen
con el servidor central para tener los datos actualizados
(replicacion).

Bueno mi consulta, va referida a que segun estas caracteristicas se
puede plantear mejores alternativas, tanto para acceso como para
implementacion, a mi personalmente me gustaria saber si todo esto se
puede hacer con herramientas de software libre tanto en BD como en
desarrollo y cuales podrian ser las mejores alternativas, y si alguno
tuviera alguna experincia , me gustaria me la comparta.

Hola a Todos ...ConsejosUn saludos a toda la gente del foro, 

Tengo ya tiempo con CentOS y me parece genial esta distribución.

Con respecto a CentOS 5.0 Tengo algunas consultas:

1. Antes yo cargaba Centos 4.5 en modo consola con el parametro vga=791 para 
tener una resolución de 1024 x 768 en modo texto. Pero eso no funciona ahora en 
CentOS 5. Alguien sabe como hacerlo ?

2. El servicio DNS ( named ) no funciona por que le falta archivos de 
configuración, sabe alguien en que paquete o como puedo dejar funcionando de 
forma básica este servicio ???

Bueno ... son dos inconvenientes que he tenido con respecto a CentOS 5, por lo 
demas todo super bien.

bueno  también se debe pensar en costos de implementación , licencias por el
uso
y la distribución y un montón de costos añadidos al desarrollo legal con
herramientas
de microsoft.
Por otro lado esta la pregunta... ¿que es mas importante.. desarrollo rápido
o
aplicaciones integras seguras y efectivas?
Por otra parte al desarrollar con asp estan destinando a los usuarios a ser
usuarios windows.
Los servidores de datos y los servidores de aplicaciones seran propensos
siempre a virus y demás problemas
Al ejecutar aplicaciones en windows necesitas una maquina con mayores
carateristicas para brindar un servicio  adecuado comparado con la maquina
que necesitas si utilizas servidores linux

una de las mejores soluciones que se me ocurre es  PHP + POSTGRESQL+ APACHE
php como lenguaje base, he oído de delphi for php que es una herramienta de
diseño
visual que genera código php sería una excelente alternativa. otra
alternativa
bastante buena es utilizar un framework de aplicaciones para que la
codificación
sea rápida... aun cuando existen muchos en la red me parece que los mejores
y mas
completos son cake y el framework de zend

En cuanto a apache no hay mucho que decir es un excelente servidor de
aplicaciones
que soporta una gran cantidad de lenguajes php, jsp, ruby y muchos otros

POSTGRESQL bueno es en mi opinión uno de los mejores servidores de base de
datos
tiene mucha robustez y seguridad, tiene la base de los scripts bajo linus
con lo que
puedes hacer maravillas como copias automáticas, manejo de cambios y mucho
más
También  tiene soporte a varios lenguajes procedurales y al clásico pl/psql

En cuanto al tema de la replicacion sobre postgres Slony o DBLink

forma básica este servicio ???

Debes instalar el paquete caching-nameserver, el archivo existe pero con 
otro nombre.


/etc/named.caching-nameserver.conf

recuerda ajustar estos parámetros:

listen-on port 53 { 127.0.0.1; };

allow-query { localhost; };

match-clients  { localhost; };
match-destinations { localhost; };


saludos!
epe

Bueno ... son dos inconvenientes que he tenido con respecto a CentOS 5, por lo demas todo super bien. 


Saludos y gracias de antemano por la ayuda.

 Hola, miren nuevamente acudo a uds. para ver que me puedan colaborar y
 brindar sugerencias sobre lo siguiente:

 Acabo de ingresar a trabajar a un empresa, en la cual se tiene
 previsto desarrollar una gran aplicacion financiera (por los modulos
 de que se componen sera una aplicacion de buen tamaño). Resulta que
 las personas que finaciaran este desarrollo, tienen casi decidido
 afrontar este desarrollo en .net(sqlserver+c#+asp.net) principalmente
 por temas de rapidez en el desarrollo, obviamnete algunos de los
 desarrolladores tenemos la mision de cambiar esta decision y plantear
 el uso de SL, segun la distribucion de la empresa y sus sucursales se
 tendria el siguiente entorno:

 * aplicacion en entorno web (indispensable)
 * 1 oficina central
 * 20 a 25 surcursales (20 a 30 usuarios cada una)
 * conexion por medio de adsl de 256,512, 1Mb (Segun la posibilidad de
 acceso en cada sucursal)
 * se dispondra de clientes remotos internacionalmente (via internet)

 Se tiene previsto disponer un servidor (aplicacion+BD) en cada una
 para mejorar el acceso a la aplicacion por parte de los usuarios
 locales y hacer que estos no sientan el fecto de su velocidad de
 acceso (entre la of central y su sucursal que puede ser baja), pero
 por debajo hacer que los servidores de las sucursales se sincronicen
 con el servidor central para tener los datos actualizados
 (replicacion).

 Bueno mi consulta, va referida a que segun estas caracteristicas se
 puede plantear mejores alternativas, tanto para acceso como para
 implementacion, a mi personalmente me gustaria saber si todo esto se
 puede hacer con herramientas de software libre tanto en BD como en
 desarrollo y cuales podrian ser las mejores alternativas, y si alguno
 tuviera alguna experincia , me gustaria me la comparta.


 disculpen la aplitud del mensaje y gracias adelantadas para los que me
 den alguna sugerencia

Porque siempre el foco es  en desarrollar  rapido

la mayoria de los sistemas fallan por la falta de mantenimiento  a
mediano / largo plazo y otro tanto por no pensar en hacer las
aplicaciones  escalables o crecimiento.

si, hay que liberar pronto pero parte de liberar un sistema es tener
en cuenta el mantenimiento y su costo a mediano y largo plazo

en cuanto a las herramientas si solo sabes usar un martillo  todos los
problemas los veras como clavos.

y claro que se puede hacer con software libre ..

en cuanto a las herramientas :

Base de datos : PostgreSQL
lenguajes :

Python   ( con django o turbogears  o modpython )
o el recien liberado como GPL  Java aunque aun no este como para
produccion la version libre  pero se puede iniciar  con el de SUN
luego cambiar el JRE  por uno 100% libre como icedtea

Hola, de principio gracias a todos por responder y dar sus
sugerencias, a lo mejor que algunas cosas no las upe explicar bien,
ahora detallo esas, para que tengan una idea mas clara:

* Tengo enetendio que si se busco, para ver si existia aplicaciones
que cumplan con los requerimientos, lastimosamente no encontraron una.
ademas que para ir desarrollando modulos faltantes sobre alguna
aplicacion candidata, decidieron que era preferible desarrollarla
completa.

* Para que tengan una idea la aplicacion no solo toca aspectos
financieros, mas alcontrario toma aspectos de control y seguimiento de
proyectos de inversion (pagos, reversiones, etc), adquisiciones
nacionales e internacionales, manejo de cartera para creditos a
sectores productivos, control y seguimiento de obras financiadas por
distintos organismos (gubernamentales, ongs, etc) y varios otros
modulos relacionados con financiamientos a proyectos.

* El tiempo previsto es de 10 meses, contatando almenos 10
desarrolladores expertos en la herramienta, tambien se planifico una
capcitacion  para todos los que ya trabajamos para que estemos al
nivel de los contratados.


De entre todas las sugerencias, existen algunas que no conocia y me
llaman la atencion, por ejemplo:

* Catalyst (este puede generar CRUDs de forma automatica?, al igual
que symfony y RoR?)
* XSP mod_mono (he visto que en las aplicaciones .net pueden compilar
y obtener un .exe de la aplicacion y publicarla en el IIS, esto es
soportado por XSP y mod_mono?)

agradeceria si me pudiesen dar mas detalles al respecto.

Re: [CentOS-es] desarrollo de aplicacion grande

2007-09-20 Thread ArcosCom Linux User
En mi trabajo usamos en entornos de producción lo siguiente:
   1) JBOSS como servidor de aplicaciones.
   2) PostgreSQL como SGBD.
   3) J2EE

Esta configuración cumple perfectamente los requisitos que planteastes
inicialmente, añadiende se consigue perfectamente alta disponibilidad.

Como entorno de desarrollo: Eclipse

Como ves el conjunto es idóneo para el entorno que estás planteando.

Es más, si te empeñas en el uso de plataforma .NET, está MONO, pero mi
recomendación es la indicada al comienzo: JBOSS + PGSQL + J2EE.

Yes. With difficulty. :-)

This problem is fixed by:

1. installing the LPRng src rpm
2. cd /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
3. mkdir unpack
4. cd unpack
5. tar zxf ../LPRng-3.8.27.tgz
6. vi LPRng-3.8.27/Makefile.in

8. tar zcf ../LPRng-3.8.27.tgz LPRng-3.8.27
9. cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS

There are other errors later on; I can't recall how I fixed this,
maybe disabling kerberos support?

I'd recommend jsut about any introduction to unix administration book,

why would root own your website?  far more common for the user to own 
his own website files.


anyways, does group 'data' have write privileges to the file 
/var/www/umair/index.html ?

Not both as apache_mod. You can use one as mod and the other one as cgi.

Anyway, PHP4 will almost certainly expire next year (www.gophp5.org)

For that reason I want the server has good compatibility with windows.

Re: [CentOS] Choosing VPN Server

2007-09-20 Thread Ken Price
OpenVPN doesn't support IPSec at all.  It's an SSL implementation.   
You'll want to look at Openswan (http://www.openswan.org/) for IPSec.   
PS.  The www is very important when going to the openswan site.   
Their webserver is configured funky.


For Microsoft compatibility, Poptop and Openswan are your best bets.   
Neither are a piece of cake to setup, but I personally find Openswan  
easier ... but then I've been using it in a production environment for  
5 or 6 years (was Freeswan).

I want the server to work cooperation with a Microsoft ISA Server inside the
intranet with site-to-site vpn mode.
For that reason I want the server has good compatibility with windows.

Very easy to enable multiple VPN connection at the same time.

 I suggest OpenVPN.  It's modern, very secure, and had a wide range of
 options and usage scenarios.  PPTP / L2TP is a pain to get working,
 and it has some security issues.

You'll probably have to modify the spec to get this to build
correctly. That package is a centos4 package name, and doesn't exist
in centos5. There's also no direct 'Provides' for it, as it's been
split over a couple different packages.

You should see that line in the BuildRequires: section of the spec
file. Change it to the xorg-x11-server-sdk package and try the build
again.

Re: [CentOS] LDAP / PAM -- Invalid Credentials Error

2007-09-20 Thread Von Landfried
Thank you for you response, but I might not have been clear in my  
original email.


All of the other servers (servers[1-9]) are working properly, i.e.  
the user 'testuser' is able to log in using the password I set, and  
is able to change the password using passwd, among other things of  
course. So because of this, I assume LDAP is working properly.


My question is why can't 'testuser' log into the actual LDAP server?  
There must be some configuration difference, but I just can't find it.


I obviously would not change /etc/pam.d/system-auth manually, I would  
use 'authconfig' to make any changes. I already turned off WINBIND  
and that did nothing to fix it. Unless something has to be restarted,  
(other than ldap, sshd) then this wasn't the cause.


The /etc/ldap.conf is configured properly, on all machines, which is  
why I assume the user is able to log into the other 9 servers.


These are CentOS 4.5 servers, so they are running openldap-2.2.13-7.4E

Running 'getend passwd' (didn't know that command, thanks for that  
one) shows the user, so I assume the password is correctly setup  
(kinda already knew that since he can log into all other machines)


I will keep trying, and will read through the documentation.

No Plan.

The server 'storage' is the LDAP host server, and there are about 9
other servers configured to use 'storage' to authenticate users. All
9 of them allow 'testuser' to login and also for him to change his

 You'll want to look at Openswan (http://www.openswan.org/) for IPSec.

 Their webserver is configured funky.

 For Microsoft compatibility, Poptop and Openswan are your best bets.
 Neither are a piece of cake to setup, but I personally find Openswan
 easier ... but then I've been using it in a production environment for
 5 or 6 years (was Freeswan).

You'll want an L2TP setup, though, for best security, performance, and best 
compatibility.  There are commercial Linux firewall boxes that do this 
easily; SmoothWall is one.  Barring that, install l2tpd (for CentOS 4 it's on 
Karanbir's CentOS repo; for CentOS 5 I'm not sure, as I don't have extra 
repos enabled on any of my CentOS 5 boxes).

Windows L2TP VPN's are the most secure, being PPP over L2TP over IPsec, 
without the holes that have plagued PPTP (PPP over L2TP does essentiall the 
same thing PPTP does, but in a more secure and standard manner).

You don't need IPSec for Windows ISA server compatibility, just add a
server publishing rule that forwards your OpenVPN port of choice to
the internal OpenVPN server, whether it is on CentOS or Windows doesn't
matter.

If you use a different SSL port then 443, which you will need to do if
you also publish an https: site off of ISA, then you need to run a
script that adds that port # to the list of authorized SSL ports on
the ISA server.

Also when deploying the OpenVPN client to your Windows laptops look
at using Group Policy so they are all identically installed and
configured.

 hello,
 
 I'm going to try this question again. The first time I botched it and
 the answers I got were useless.
 
 I want to use rpmdevtools to help with some packaging chores. There is
 no C5 version that I can find. I've located an SRC RPM in a location
 that is known to be C5 compatible. There are 2 versions of
 rpmdevtools:
 
 http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/extras/6/SRPMS/rpmdevtools-6.1-0.1.fc6.src.rpm
 http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/extras/6/SRPMS/rpmdevtools-5.3-1.fc6.src.rpm
 
 naturally I grabbed the highest version (6.1) and rebuilt it for EL5.
 The installation halted, missing a version of rpm-build higher than
 the base version in C5. It seems that rpm-build 4.4.2.1+ comes from
 FC7. This is the first time that I've seen an FC6 repo package that
 depended on something from FC7.

To use the 6.1 version, you need an updated version of rpm (  4.4.2 ).
FC6 uses rpm-4.4.2.1, which is a slightly modified version of rpm-4.4.2
from F7 (F7 uses python-2.5, FC6 uses python-2.4).

 rpmdevtools 5.3.1 builds, installs, and works fine on C5. 
 
 I think I made the right decisions here (balking at trying to install
 a higher version of rpm-build).
 
 If you need to use rpmdevtools, how would you approach the problem?
 What source repo would you use? Is there an rhel5 SRC RPM? Where is
 it?

You can try looking at EPEL for it.  EPEL is the rebuilding of Fedora
Extras, by the Fedora team.  If you look at
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/SRPMS/repoview/rpmdevtools.html , 
you will see that the most recent version is 5.3-1.

Re: [CentOS] Choosing VPN Server

2007-09-20 Thread Brian Mathis
I just want to point out that the default port for openvpn is 1194.
SSL/TLS has absolutely nothing to do with port 443, except that https
happens to use both port 443 and SSL/TLS.  Otherwise, SSL/TLS is
simply a toolkit used for encryption, and does not require any
specific port whatsoever.  Saying so would be like saying that glibc
requires network port XYZ.

The use of port 443 with openvpn is only mentioned as a convenience,
because many firewalls allow traffic to port 443 to pass unrestricted,
while they may block other ports.

Those of you in the know probably already know this, but for those
unfamiliar, the discussion may seem to imply that port 443 and SSL/TLS
are tightly bound.  This message is intended to clarify that
implication.

 it does if the Windows ISA machine is the VPN server as he said.

OpenVPN has a Windows version and if the OP wanted to run it on the
ISA itself, he is welcome to, though not recommended as it decreases
the hardness of the ISA server.

OpenVPN server would probably virtualize well as the Internet
connection will end up being the limiting bandwidth factor and
Internet connectivity is always susceptible to wild latencies, so
a little VM added latency surely wouldn't go noticed.

 frankly, for business site to site VPN, I generally recommend tossing 
 ALL software and OS implementations in favor of Jupiter Netscreen or 
 another router based implementation.

I have to agree here, for site-to-site VPNs it is better with hardware
accelerated devices on fixed IP addresses doing IPSec.

[CentOS] iptables question

2007-09-20 Thread Ray Leventhal
Hi all,

With SELinux in permissive mode and iptables running, I'm unable to
retrieve directory listings with ftp.

stop iptables, and all appears again.  This seems to be unrelated to
passive/port modes for ftp client.

If this is off topic, please let me know offlist and I'll take my
question elsewhere.  Otherwise I'll repost with output of

# iptables status

TIA,
~Ray

Depending how you configured your iptables rules, you'll probably anyway
need the ip_conntrack_ftp iptables module.
You can modprobe it, or even better, declare it
in /etc/sysconfig/iptables-config ...

 Also, we run the SpamHaus blacklist. This works pretty good for

 then go remove their IP from the blacklist to better insure their
 email actually makes it through any other level of spam filtering on
 other ISPs. But, that's a rosey concept! 

John: That happened to us, this week. I was unable to use the SMTP on my
web site for somewhere between 48-67 hours, because of Spamhaus.
Apparently, this morning, when my wife powered things up, we got a clean
IP address. When I went to the Spamhaus web site, it showed the IP
numbers clear, but, on other lists. Supposedly, if one uses SMTP
Authentication, this problem goes away. However, I have always used SMTP
Authentication. I do not want to change to another web hosting ISP,
because this problem might follow me. And, I've been with them for
almost 6 years. Also, Spamhaus says the problem should go away, in 1 or
2 hours, and in the past that was true, but not this time. Good for you,
to want to handle this in a better way for your clients! Lanny

That sounds nice!
This TIPS, CONFIG_HZ=100, is one of FAQs. It will make most of us happy.

Now we can get kernel-vm package on dev.centos.org.

And the kernel seems better for clock interval on VMWare.

[CentOS] CentOS5 Network Problems

2007-09-20 Thread semi linux
I have a very odd problem connecting to some websites from my CentOS 5 box

Target websites:
www.connecttech.com
www.3ware.com
(two of my HW vendors)

I can usually get some kind of response, but if the content (download
or page itself) is larger in size (downloads never pass 100K), then it
hangs...

When I fire-up wireshark, I get a lot of ougoing highlighted Checksum
Errored packets but I don't know what's causing it...  Here's what
I've eliminated thus far:

- Websites are up and responsive
- Cable(s) is fine
- Network drop is fine
- I put myself behind a firewall to make sure it wasn't my network
- Network card has been switched
- Driver has been switched
- Removed any firewall
- wget has problems as well
- Other computers on the same network work fine.

Sites like maps.google.com work just fine...  I'm open to any
suggestion at this point.

I had an odd issue with an FC6 laptop on a hotel wireless network where 
any encrypted traffic (ssh, https) would hang after a certain amount. 
The fix was to turn off TCP window scaling

(echo 0  /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_window_scaling).  Some googling revealed
that some routers have issues with TCP window scaling - I don't know why

Mostly it has to do with the way information is ordered and written to
the filesystem. The old FAT filesystem (and to a lesser extent NTFS)
was sloppy, and needed some periodic cleanup. EXT2/3 are a bit more
elegant in their design and structure the data such that a defrag
isn't really necessary. The filesystem *will* check itself every 180
days or every so many reboots via fsck. This is configurable with
tune2fs.

That's basically the high level explanation for the differences. Once
you start getting down into the really low level stuff, that's where I
fall asleep no matter how much caffiene I've had.

  Yes and no. The packages for xorg have been renamed slightly (a change
  inherited from upstream) and the number of packages involved in the
  xorg suite has exploded.
  You probably want the xorg-x11-server-sdk package, though there are
  some others which you may also need.
 
  You can run the following command to see them all:
  yum list xorg-x11\*

Re: [CentOS] running php4 and php5 parallel

2007-09-20 Thread gjgowey
Maybe if you custom build them from source giving each it's own directory using 
--prefix you can do it, but Umair might still be right about library conflicts. 
 Not including the libraries and binaries in any paths might solve the problem 
and execution still could happen via a shell script for each to append the 
proper path before launch, but this is all just guessing.

 stop iptables, and all appears again.  This seems to be unrelated to

Re: [CentOS] running php4 and php5 parallel

2007-09-20 Thread umair shakil
Hi,

Let us suppose, you have PHP4 RPM installation, PHP5 source installation.
you type php -v you should get only one output like

PHP5, The PHP Group,

Let us start the apache, and put some php function in a file phpinfo() in
index.php. you will get only PHP5(suppose). I am trying to explain that
your output is one (PHP4 or PHP5).

The question of running both in parallel seems to be difficult in this
scenario.
It also says when u will get to know that which version is now u running

Re: [CentOS] Disk De-Fraging in Linux

2007-09-20 Thread Peter Arremann
On Thursday 20 September 2007, Al Sparks wrote:
 Why?  What's different between NTFS and ext2/3 that defragging is
 needed in one but not the other?
=== Al

And this is the right question to ask...

Anyway - the answer about defragging, if you really care to understand it, is 
pretty length. 

FAT used to be horrible. It would always simply take the first available 
cluster and use that to store data. This resulted in a lot of fragmentation.

NTFS is much better already. It still profits from defragging but the results 
don't make that much of a difference anymore as long as your partition 
doesn't get close to being full. It tries to allocate contiguous blocks and 
will even add some buffer to the end for file growth.

ext2/3 is similar to ntfs in its fragmentation resistance. It however, has 2 
more advantages. First, linux uses swap devices and stuff like mmapped files 
are still movable. In windows, swap files and some other files are not 
movable. The second advantage is reserved space. By default, each ext2/3 
filesystem has 5% of its space reserved for root. ext2/3 simply assume you 
will never get past 95% full - so the data is laid out accordingly. Since you 
know you have at least 5% free disk blocks, you can leave a little bit more 
unallocated space at the end of each file... Its not much but it adds up over 
time.

The worst possible scenario I've found for ext3 so far is cvs. With every 
checkin, cvs has to modify the whole file. It does so by writing a completely 
new file, then deleting the old one and moving the new file in place. This 
means that each time, the filesystem has to allocate new space.

For a long time, I balanced stuff between servers, removed outdated code and 
so on. bi-monthly fsck would show about 1-2% fragmentation at about 75% 
filesystem full. Then a few large projects were imported. filesystem usage 
went up to 98% (someone did a tune2fs -m 0) and then the problems really 
started. I'm just about to go home now - 2am. I spent the last few hours 
reorganizing the cvs filesystem. A filesystem check showed 61% fragmentation! 
I moved old code off to a secondary server, then coppied things off, recreated 
the filesystem and then copied the data back. 

Results were impressive - my I/O subsystem can take about 1800 io ops per 
second. The result before that, was about 1.1MB/sec throughput measured in 
iostat with a few cvs processes running at the same time.
After the reorg... again 1800 ios - but my throughput rose to a more useful 24 
MB/sec... 


Anyway - bullet points:
* there is no good way to measure (on a filesystem level) fragmentation other 
than fsck
* try filefrag to check for fragmentation on a per file basis. 
* there is no online ext2/3 defragger that works on block level
* there is a offline defragger for ext2 on block level e2defrag. ext3 would 
have to be converted to ext2 and back to ext3 after the defrag.
* there are some filelevel fragmentation tools. They basically work by copying 
files around. This works on filesystems that had high utilization for a 
while, got fragmented but are now mostly empty again. I tried some of that on 
my cvs server but none ended up giving me good results.
* if fsck shows high fragmentation (5% in my opinions) you should make sure 
the filesystem doesn't get that full and if you really want to defrag, copy 
the data off and back on. Its the best way to do it.

And now I'm off to bed. 

Peter.
