[CentOS] Adding a new disk to an existing raid 10
Dear all, I'm not used to handling software raid. I've inherited a server which has raid 10 set. one of our disks failed, and it's to be replaced today. My question is; any hint how to add this new disk to the existing raid array ? first thought is :- Create identical partitions as other disks in the array i'd like to add it to.- add it to raid. Though i'm extremely worried of messing things up and wiping all my data. Any hint would be appreciated ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
[CentOS] Centos as Gateway ? (Router/transparent proxy)
Hi All, I'm lately suffering from Quota abuse at home. believe it or not my teenagers are eating through my allowed quota. Hence, i'm thinking of setting up a centos machine to work as such: HDSL modem(natted to an onboard dhcp service for lan users) - Centos - Switch - LAN users Hw specs: 3 GB ram 3.0 core 2 duo 2 X 1 TB HDD 2 X 1 Gb NIC Centos will contain the following: 1. DHCP # is there a way i could use the modem's dhcp service instead? or using a centos based dhcp service is better? 2. Samba # sharing files for lan users 3. Squid 4. clamav 5. OpenRadius # wifi authentication 6. knockd service (anyone tried it? i read about this service a few weeks ago and am wondering if it's worth giving it a shot... for public access to the server ) 6. Things which are needed : a. Ability to separate Wireless router from LAN. (thinking of vlans though as i have a dumb switch am thinking of adding a 3d NIC to my desktop and dedicating it to the wifi ? ) b. Accountablity of quota and bandwidth used (i was thinking of SARG and SQstat for squid) c. using some sort of shell script that will parse squid logs (mysar will help me access squid logs through mysql) and if someone bypassed their allowed quota for the day they will be moved to a delay pool with lower bandwidth. As you noticed above, my whole connection management is relying on squid, i'm worried that it will process only traffic that's forwarded to port 80 instead of everything going through the server. any idea if thats the case? I previously thought of untangled, and IPCOp, though i don't want a standalone router as i'd like to be able to use VirtualBox over it occasionally. waiting for your advice about the above setup, keep in mind that i don't mind changing the setup if there's something better to use, actually i do prefer it.

[CentOS] how to run a command on a specific vnc display
Hello, I'm using selenium rc for automated testing on a centos box. working on the box itself has no problem as long as i start the server through terminal. though if i wanted to run tests remotely i have a problem with firefox not knowing on which display to run. i have a vnc client running on port 1 (5801/5901) I've tried the following: export DISPLAY=1 ; java -jar selenium-server.jar /opt/selenium/Logs/logs.txt # through ssh session though that didn't work the only way to initiate it properly is to connect through vnc, open a terminal and type : java -jar $PWD/selenium-server.jar though i don't know how to automate this. so i thought of setting this in xstartup # vnc's startup for display 1 as such: 1 #!/bin/sh 2 3 # Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop: 4 unset SESSION_MANAGER 5 exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc 6 while true ;do sh /opt/scripts/rc; done 7 [ -x /etc/vnc/xstartup ] exec /etc/vnc/xstartup 8 [ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] xrdb $HOME/.Xresources 9 xsetroot -solid grey 10 vncconfig -iconic 11 xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title $VNCDESKTOP Desktop 12 twm ]# more /opt/scripts/rc java -jar /opt/selenium/selenium-server.jar /opt/selenium/Logs/logs.txt Though that isn't working either, and still the firefox profile doesnt know where to start. this is the error : PHPUnit_Framework_Exception: Response from Selenium RC server for getNewBrowserSession(*firefox, http://www.test.com). Failed to start new browser session: Error while launching browser. any help to automate the startup on display 1 would be greatly appreciated ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

PAE allows a 32 bits host to see more than 4GB of ram. but each process is still limited to ~3gb. To dive a bit more into technical details, PAE is like EMS in DOS time. In EMS, you saw the whole ram, but couldn't allocate more than 64KB per process. With PAE, the same, with a limit of 4GB-OS stuff per process, so it gives something like 3GB.

[CentOS] Centos to use two ISP concurrently..?
Hi all, I'm currently getting my Centos working as a proxy (squid) on a 2 Mb bandwidth plan that's serving 20 users. it's all good though our need for speed is increasing by the day. soon enough i'll be serving up to 60 user, hence the need to get higher bandwidth though here where the problem is. as i'm using HDSL, 2 Mb is the highest plan available. hence, i need to get 2 HDSL subscriptions, in other words 2 modems/IPs to work with.. ( 2 x 2 Mb) the possibility to use routing table isn't feasible as these two ISP's would only be used for browsing, so routing destinations one way or the other isn't an option. i have two initial thoughts to solve this hope you could straighten me out if they're wrong or suggest something better that your experience lead you to use: 1. setup Openvz on a centos box, get two templates up and running with squid setup on them. each one with a different IP. Each template would be routed to one ISP, and both proxies would be used in child/parent proxy manner so i could use caching from both. and i could split my users in half, 1 half would be using Squid#1 and the other using squid#2. 2. the same squid box have two Nics, with two IPs, one routed to each ISP, i get squid listening to port 80 on both IPs, and same as above, half of my users would be running on IP#1 and the others on IP#2. do all this make any sense? i'm seeking your help as both ideas does not seem very professional to me, and i doubt that's the optimal solution so any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks , --Roland _ Hotmail: Trusted email with Microsoft’s powerful SPAM protection. https://signup.live.com/signup.aspx?id=60969 ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] how to mount a remote directory on linux
Hello, i'd like to mount a remote directory that exists on a CENTOS 5 machine to a similar but local machine. i've made a local cron job that executes a script on the data provided in that folder hence the request above. if any help could be provided i'd appreciate it.. ps: sshfs seems unsupported on centos using yum installation.. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
