RE: [CentOS] Re: ls and rm: argument list too long
rm -rf /var/amavis/tmp and get only argument list too long as feedback. Is there a way to go round this problem? I have CentOS 5.2. It isn't a problem with the commands, it is a problem of how long a command line can be when piped to a command. rm -rf /var/amavis/tmp is effectively the same as rm -rf /var/amavis/tmp/1 /var/amavis/tmp/2 /var/amavis/tmp/3 /var/amavis/tmp/4 /var/amavis/tmp/5 ... etc. The number of diles and directories in that folder is the limiting factor. I don't believe this is correct. The command rm -rf /path/to/dir doesn't expand on the shell the same way rm -rf /path/to/dir/* would. Unless I'm misunderstanding your comment, rm -rf /path/to/dir will remove everything as intended without blowing out the argument list. Dealing with file removal and getting 'argument list too long' is a FAQish question, and there is more than one way to get around the issue. Common workarounds include find piped to xargs rm, the above mentioned recursive directory nuke, one line perl scripts, etc. -John ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
RE: [CentOS] DKIM
Okay, Yahoo is bumming me. Only system my mail is having an issue with. All mail is accepted, but junked. I can only think it is the DKIM/Domain keys. Just a WAG, but make sure you have a PTR record for your machine that is sending email. If you actually got the bounce, check the headers, it is the first best place to look. -John ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
RE: [CentOS] DKIM
Back to the PTR RR: $ dig +short MX bobhoffman.com 10 mail.bobhoffman.com. $ dig +short A mail.bobhoffman.com 72.35.68.59 $ dig +short -x 72.35.68.59 bobhoffman.com. ^^^ mail.bobhoffman.com != bobhoffman.com Careful here. Email senders have nothing to do with MX records. Email receivers do. I believe bobhoffman.com is the email sender in this case. I would doubt this is an issue. Any split in/out mail server is going to have a different host for receipt (MX) than send. -John ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
RE: [CentOS] link speed
Craig White írta: Is there a command line way to tell me whether a ethernet connection is 100 BaseT or Gigabit Ethernet? mii-tool My experience with mii-tool on CentOS4 and 5 is that it won't show link speed above 100 even if it is. If the OP is trying to differentiate 100 vs. 1000, then I would suggest using ethtool instead. -John ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
[CentOS] CentOS 4 autofs 4.1.3
For those of you using CentOS 4, is anyone having trouble with autofs 4.1.3? I'm seeing (with 60second unmount timeout) what appears to be an apparent race condition where a script touches an automount directory at about (the same second according to logs) the same time the unmount is triggered, and the script then gets a read error. Sure, increasing the unmount timeout will reduce the occurrence rate, but if this really is a race, then it won't eliminate it. In looking at the CHANGELOG between autofs 4.1.3 and 5.0.1rc2, there have been tons of changes including some references to timing issues. However nothing is jumping out, and there are many changes. Is it conventional wisdom that the 4.1.3 autofs has 'issues' and folks routinely move up to autofs 5 on CentOS 4.x?

RE: [CentOS] small window manager
What is an alternative X window manager, supported by CentOS, that has very small memory footprint? I want to avoid twm, because it defaults to interactive placement when not giving geometry options. No other requirements. You found twm's 'RandomPlacment' unsuitable? -John ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
