To date I have not had to configure sendmail since I use a class in PHP that is straight, however I am learning how to use Concrete5 for my local Rotary club and it apparently needs sendmail. My smtp provider is smtp.sonic.net and it requires user name and password. Is there a simple example that could guide me on setting the parameters in sendmail.mc?

[CentOS] Samba server choices
I have been running a customized version Amahi for a couple years for my Samba server. It is time for an upgrade, and I will be moving away from Amahi, as they have abandoned Fedora for Ubuntu. Back when I selected Amahi to replace my 15 year old NT server, I looked around and only considered SME Server as an alternative, but they were still on Centos 4.7 with the Centos 5 based version still off in some future. So I am now looking around again. My 'needs' are small: NT style shares with mobile profiles. I only have half a dozen XP systems here. I suppose at some point I will be adding Win7 systems. So far I have two options: Pull off the config files from my Amahi server: Bind, DHCP, Samba, and probably MySQL. I had customized things enough (and few of my 'bug' fixes made it back into the base) that I know what to pull out to make a viable server. Go with SME Server 8.0 which was released back in May and is based on Centos 5.8. So my question to all of you is, what other options are out there? A Win7 future kind of makes SME more attractive than rolling my own. I would NOT be using SME for my mail server. That will be in a separate post. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I haven't used it beyond installing in a test VM, but it looks like it would be a suitable SME replacement with a more up to date code base. And it should be usable as an email server too whether on the same host or not.

[CentOS] LVM2 Thin Provisioning: 6.3 vs 6.4 (lvm2, device-mapper-persistent-data, et al)
I've been running into some problems with LVM thin provisioning in CentOS 6.3. Some of these I have reported to RH Bugzilla (e.g. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=883629). The upshot seems to be that in RHEL 6.3 the features are preview but in 6.4 they are full featured/robust (hopefully) and many of the bugs are fixed. This raises the following questions: 1) When will either CentOS 6.4 be available, OR selected features (e.g. thin provisioning fixes) of RHEL 6.4 be available in CentOS 6.3? 2) Is there some way that I can help with the above? 3) Lastly, should I also file duplicate CentOS Bug Tracker (http://bugs.centos.org/view_all_bug_page.php) tickets on these items?

RHEL 6.4 has not been released yet ... They just released the Beta of RHEL 6.4 this week. Most Red Hat beta's last 2-3 months. That would mean that Red Hat will likely release RHEL 6.4 sometime in the February-March 2013 time frame. The CentOS team will take 1-3 weeks from that release time to release CentOS-6.4 2) Is there some way that I can help with the above? Maybe. We (The CentOS Project) have a QA team that helps test our releases before we make them public. We accept people into the team who are either known to other members of the current team (and are recommended by those members) or people who have some demonstrative open source credentials with other projects and ask to be a member of the QA Team. 3) Lastly, should I also file duplicate CentOS Bug Tracker (http://bugs.centos.org/view_all_bug_page.php) tickets on these items? It can certainly help to track these on the CentOS Bugs site too, if you add them, also add the upstream bug link. This is not required by any means, but if we have bugs there then we can include the fact that they are fixed in the CentOS release notes later. One thing to remember about the CentOS bug tracker ... all CentOS support is Community driven, even answers to the bugs in the tracker. If you know the answer to a bug that is open or if you know that a bug needs to be closed, please add comments to the site. The bugs site is only as good as the Community is in keeping it updated. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I think ClearOS uses LDAP under everything including your initial user list which is something that made it sound attractive - and should make it easy to have multiple servers with the same user base. However I haven't needed it enough to set one up completely.I used to use several SME servers in remote offices (and generally was comfortable giving the local office administrator the root password to add users and shares where I would never have done that with a normal linux distro). But, due to business changes, now headquarters is elsewhere and I'm in a small remote office...
