Qualys agent Scientific Linux

Our security guy runs a scanning system called Qualys. He gave me an rpm file to install and a couple of commands to run. It appears to have installed the agent ok. But I see in the log file that it is trying to do a pattern match to determine the OS name and version. It is looking for CentOS

MS Outlook adding excessive encrusting excrescence to list URLs

Just a note for testing. Recently our corporate Outlook email was changed so that all embedded URLs from this source get slathered with a protective coating of unintelligible goop. And I've been forced to change my mail editor preference to HTML from plain text so that Skype for Business meeting

RE: Your removal from the SCIENTIFIC-LINUX-USERS list ** EXTERNAL **

I think you have it backwards: Your Office 365 account has been rejecting emails from the scientific linux listserv software. Eventually the listserv gives up and dumps you off of the list. So blame whoever moved you to Office365. From: owner-scientific-linux-us...@listserv.fnal.gov On

kicked off the list via Office 365?

FYI I received a kicked-off-the-list message which seems to indicate that either the listserv or people being relayed through the listserv were falling afoul of Office 365 spam-control on my end, which gave me too many bounces and hence, kicked off.

> Why do parted and mount have this difference? /dev/sdg1 ? What he said. /dev/sdg is the whole device /dev/sdg1 is the first partition on that device. Partitions have file systems. Partitions with file systems can be mounted. parted works on the whole device. mount works on the partitions

It sounds to me also like there is something wrong with your display configuration. It may be a wrong resolution for your monitor or something like that. A will restart the X-Windows system without rebooting your computer. That won’t fix anything. But I believe that would

Thank you!

RE: X stopping displaying on SL7.2

Sounds like a problem with the screen saver Instead of a reboot, you could restart X with a control-alt-backspace I think. But I would investigate changing your screen saver, either turning it off or making it do something graphical and not just black out. -Original Message- From:

oracle ias 10g on SL 6.x ?

I did a search of the archives of this group, keyword: Oracle. Low and Behold, it looks like I am the instigator of most such questions. With the OpenSSL thing and the PCI thread, I'm thinking that it would be really nice to be running SL 6.x instead of 5.x these days. But my reason for

EL 5.9 Oracle i386 and x86_64

I've installed sl(EL5.9) on new Dell R720 hardware. I installed as x86_64 with the knowledge that Oracle app server requires i386. I think there is some way to run i386 apps. I need a pointer about how to run i386 when my server has both on it. Is it an environment variable? PATH setting ?
