Newegg sells 2x2Gb packs of unbuffered ECC kingston brand ddr2 for under $100. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820134312 No reason, really, to not fill your motherboard with ram. If you want to dedicate a box to virtualization, and won't be using more then 4GB of ram for your virtual machines - I highly recommend xenserver express. Its free, but has much better performance then vmware. the free (closed) xensource product is good... I also wanted to point out the new gpl windows pv drivers: http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenWindowsGplPv/ you could use them with the standard open-source Xen, or even with the Xen support distributed with CentOS 5, and avoid the ram limits all together. (well, there is a limit to the open-source xen, but it's ridiculous; most of us won't hit it for several years, at least.) still kinda beta, but something to watch. Yea, I've been playing around with this. The performance seems on par with the XenSource drivers, but like you said, it's pretty beta. James has been great in fixing the bugs, but it's just not ready for production use right now. Without using the GPLPV drivers, Xen is not ready for production use, the IO throughput sucks, and there is no graceful shutdown. If XenServer Express would only allow for 8GB, it would be perfect. The administrative interface is really polished and fully featured (except things like migrations, which understandably come with the enterprise version). Once the GPLPV drivers mature a little bin and someone makes some decent admin tools for Xen, Xen will be ready for the enterprise. I bet a company can make good money just developing and selling the admin tools for Xen.

GLPI is a more completed and detailed inventory system that can handle more than PCs, but it knows how to pull the data from ocsinventory when you use both. Thanks, Les. I totally forgot that you could integrate ocsinventory into GLPI. I've not used that portion, but I may pursue that in the near future since you just reminded me! :) I'm just starting to roll out the agent to a large number of machines.

has an interface in. I have a dns server in a dmz with an ip of 192.168.2.2
in /24. Named.conf
has 3 views, localhost_resolver - localhost, internal - localnets, and
external - !localnets; !localhost.
I have a management workstation in 192.168.0.0/24 that is connecting and
receiving the following
debug:
client 192.168.0.44#2188: no matching view in class 'IN'
I don't get it? Obvioulsy if I add all to the external view, it works. How
is the failing?
Could you post your complete named.conf file so that we can have a look at it
?

[CentOS] Reg. setting Domain name on Cento 5 pc
Hi all, I am running centos 5.1 and I wish to change the domain name and dnsdomainname of my PC. currently the settings are-- $ hostname sipx.com $ hostname --fqdn sipx.com $ domainname (none) $ dnsdomainname com I have searched in the net for tips but everywhere only the hostname change is provided. I need to change/set the domain name and the dnsdomain name on my pc to sipx.com and this should be a permanent one across system reboots. Please let me know how to do this. The domain name settings are required for a networking/ SIP telephony applications that I am running but it is internally in the LAN, so I think the name sipx.com if chosen as my pc's domain name will not cause any conflict with the external domain names in the Internet.

I'd really use it the way you're told to do it in the nnrpd manual page: Run it via xinetd. nnrpd takes close to no time coming up, so you don't need to have it there as a daemon. This has two advantages: You can change readers.conf and others and it will pick up the changes on the next client connecet - and it can be run as user news via xinetd, which is not possible when you run it standalone, as it has to be run as root to bind to port 563.

I don't mind implementing ACLs on the server if it will do what I need, but I can't find anything that says it will save me any work either. Well, since you want to set up shares ... and since you want to share between Windows and Linux machines, and to share for windows you will need to use samba. Since you can also set up linux to use a samba client, that would probably be the best method to share these files ... if you expect to just oepn them via a file manager on all platforms.

Actually, I would think that MOST things in fc6 would be newer.
It would be very hard to get all the CentOS things upgraded (I would
think). Maybe it would work.
I would run something like:
rpm -qa --qf 'name %{distribution}\n' after the initial yum upgrade (if
it completes) and figure out how to do it.
In fact, I would setup a VM with the same package list and upgrade that
as a test and NEVER do it on an important live system as the first upgrade.

Re: [CentOS] Avoid .local (WAS Reg. setting Domain name on Cento 5 pc)
Johnny Hughes wrote: Take this name that I use: myth.home.local $ hostname myth.home.local I would just like to note a mild warning here about using the .local domain. Systems that implement multicast DNS (mDNS) often reserve the .local domain for mDNS lookups (whether this is good or bad has been in dispute). Multicast DNS allows lookup of hosts on the local host by querying all machines on the local network rather than by using a local nameserver. A box with mDNS turned on will look up .local names using mDNS instead of the default nameserver. Both Apple and SuSE systems are configured to have mdns turned on by default. Before we knew this, we set up our intranet using a .local domain. Later, when we added Macs and a lone SuSE system, we found they could not do .local lookups in some circumstances. We ended up having to fiddle with the settings on those machines. See for example: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107800. In retrospect, using lan or .site or something else would have been better. Since we have our own domain and run our own nameservers, we could also have used something like intranet.ourdomain.com.

It looks like the example file's external - !localnets; !localhost wouldn't
match anything?
I also used any and everything is fine. It appears as Bind will stop once

Cool. I remember playing a bit with ocsinventory about two years ago, but I never really stuck with making myself use it. I think I'll check into it again, especially if it's easy to pull data over into GLPI from it. The current version is considerably nicer, and there is a new tool to remotely deploy the agents. I think it has to run under windows but it will deploy both the windows and linux agents using windows management protocol or ssh. I really like the detail of GLPI, so that would be a perfect fit.

I would initially start out but looking at any 3rd party installed

One of our third party applications (SlickEdit) has been having its

http://fixunix.com/xwindows/351264-core-xlib-xid-allocator.html
Here is some of the relevant information from that page:
The problem is that right now if you don't use the Display internals,
and override the XID allocator associated with each Display
structure,
the code eventually hits this in libX11 (_XAllocID()):
if (id != 0x1000) {
(void) fprintf(stderr, Xlib: resource ID allocation space
exhausted!\n);
id = 0x1000;
dpy-resource_id = id dpy-resource_shift;
}
So, if you have an application running for weeks or months that
allocates XIDs over a period of time, for GCs, Pixmaps, etc.
you will eventually hit that, unless you carefully replace the core
allocator for each Display, and reuse ids.
I can't vouch for the accuracy of that information, but it does seem
plausible and applicable to my situation. And it appears that this
issue did not exist in CentOS 4, or at least I did not see it until I
upgraded to CentOS 5.1.

[CentOS] rebuilding kernel modules issues

Besides figuring out the kickstart options you need an up-to-the-minute dump made beforehand and there's always some risk in restoring running programs unless you use a program like rsync that creates a tmp name, then renames when complete. And there's some work to sort out what you can restore and what you can't.

It also doesn't take into consideration any disk geometry differences. True. But with a small amount of scripting (assuming some experience like I had at the time I did this professionally), you can quickly produce a fairly flexible, automated, fast and reliable process that accomplishes the task. I'll elaborate a little below. snip -Ross snip sig stuff First, as to speed. Using a blksize= parameter (I used a cyl size as my standard unit of transfer), the number of system calls is reduced and the speed of the hardware becomes the limiting factor. Back when I tested this (old slower low-single-digit GB drives, circa 2000-2002), very large speedups were seen. I don't recall the percentages. Second, copies the whole disk Here is where a small amount of scripting becomes useful. You can copy only specific partitions. If the whole disk is a single partition, some stats gathered by various utilities can determine used counts, and a combination of shrinking the file system (didn't have a shrink ability back when) and (if desired) shrinking the partition can be used to compact the source. In conjunction with sfdisk to both gather configuration information and generate new configuration (via scripts), you can reduce the source copied to very close to just that needed. In the final step, this is engendered via the count=, skip= and seek= parameters to dd. This was implemented in a NAS product as part of the RAS process that could not predict the specifications of HDs that might be replaced in the field. Lastly, as to geometry differences, again sfdisk is your friend. What I can not address is how to integrate this with raid - no experience there. I do presume that one knowledgeable in that area could also automate that. If this sounds like a lot of work, it's not really. This part of my effort was minimal. The large part was creation of the boot CD, interfacing with the custom hardware timeout facility for auto-reboot to a fallback device and implementing and testing the software install and rejoin with the cluster. Oh... and the constantly changing specs (list of requirements kept changing as they saw opportunities I brought to the table - their *IX experience was quite limited).

Operating SystemCentOS 4.6 (x86_64), Linux version 2.6.9-67.Elsmp gcc version 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-9) glibc (pthread) src glibc-2.3.4-2.39.src.rpm I checked that setschedprio function is in the GLIB_2.3.4 but I got following errors [EMAIL PROTECTED] TMP]# gcc d.c -o d -lpthread /tmp/ccEeiBLd.o(.text+0x179): In function `main': : undefined reference to `pthread_setschedprio' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Can I get any advice to use that API? ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Is there any nice way in a .spec file to tell rpmbuild not to call

just hack the script. Is there a better way ?
I've just started building RPMs myself, so I'm curious ... why would
you want to not call brp-java-repack-jars?

Hi,
I have to install a particular application Aptana Studio - Community
Edition and this script seems to break when dealing with this. I am
not sure why yet and will do some further research. But current time
constraints mean I must get the package out. I am confident that
ignoring this step is ok in this case as installing the software
manually is just un-tarring it into a directory.
For those who care
- On FC6 / CentOS 4 - To Disable this you must hack the script as far
as I can tell. I am told that on New Versions of Fedora (and I assume
CentOS 5) that you can add %__jar_repack %{nil} to the top of the spec
file.
Have a nice day :)

[CentOS] assigning best gateway via DHCP
What might I do Linux-wise to create a system that looked at multiple gateways and then assigned (via DHCP) the gateway that was the least congested? Anyone have any good suggestions in this department? (I am planning on having a temporary wireless mesh with several satellite uplinks, and I would like to forward requests to whichever uplink is the least utilized) ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Clients will be Centos5, Win2K, WinXP. Server is Centos5. To put it another way, all users have accounts on the server. I don't want to have to set up ANY user information on the server, other than what I set up to control local access. I just want to say Share /vmware and have it available, to the same users who can access it locally. With Samba I have to maintain duplicate user lists, password lists, and share access lists. I have not been able to find a clear instructions on how NFS4 handles this, but what I found didn't seem any better than Samba. I don't mind implementing ACLs on the server if it will do what I need, but I can't find anything that says it will save me any work either. Well, since you want to set up shares ... and since you want to share between Windows and Linux machines, and to share for windows you will need to use samba. Since you can also set up linux to use a samba client, that would probably be the best method to share these files ... if you expect to just oepn them via a file manager on all platforms. Is there a way to set up samba so that it just uses ACL information for permissions, instead of having to spell everything out for each share and each user?
