Como ya te han recomendado, puedes echar un vistazo a herramientas tipo Nagios, Munin, Pandora FMS (desarrollado por Ártica, empresa española), etc.En la Wikipedia tienes una comparativa bastante para que te hagas una idea de lo que ofrece cada software: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_network_monitoring_systems Algunas de ellas son herramientas muy completas, con instalaciones complejas, y en muchos casos además no vas a encontrar paquetes en los repositorios base de CentOS. Te recomendaría que revises si los servicios online gratuitos tipo Pingdom.com ofrecen lo que necesitas, así te evitas instalar y mantener otro servicio más. Si decides seguir adelante y montarte tu propio sistema, personalmente para proyectos sencillos te recomendaría Munin: http://munin-monitoring.org Santi Saez http://powerstack.org ___ CentOS-es mailing list CentOS-es@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-es

[CentOS] CentOS 5 netinstall problem
Hi, all. I'm attempting to install CentOS 5 via netinstall from mirror.centos.org/centos/5/os/i386 it gets as far as formatting the disk but when it gets to: 'Starting install process. This may take take several minutes...' it hangs forever (well, a couple of hours). Dropping down in a console I see it's telling me: 'Preparing to install' then nothing. 'top' shows activity for Anaconda but very little. This is on an old Poweredge 650 with 3GB's of RAM on a secondary drive. The primary drive has CentOS 6.4 running on it quite happily so the hardware's up to it. I chose to install the 'Server GUI' packages because I was curious. Maybe herein lies my problem? Any help appreciated.

[CentOS] Problem with D-BUS Centos 6.4
Hello, I hope anyone at the list could help me... I like to open a notify by using /usr/bin/notify-send in my .procmailrc. Should show a notify if a new mail arrive. My script which creates that notify-send is working and if I test it everything works fine. So I inserted it into my .procmailrc, i looks like that: | perl /opt/sbin/mailnotify.pl I like to grep my mail into my script which creates the notify-send... If procmail triggers that script this messages comes up into the logfile of procmail: --- process 6975: D-Bus library appears to be incorrectly set up; failed to read machine uuid: Failed to open /var/lib/dbus/machine-id: Permission denied See the manual page for dbus-uuidgen to correct this issue. D-Bus not built with -rdynamic so unable to print a backtrace --- OK..I searched in the internet about that problem and found out that: http://www.torkwrench.com/2011/12/16/d-bus-library-appears-to-be-incorrectly-set-up-failed-to-read-machine-uuid-failed-to-open-varlibdbusmachine-id/ But if i do that and insert: dbus-uuidgen /var/lib/dbus/machine-id this is not the solution of my problem...the same happens again. so my question: could anyone tell my what I do wrong? -- thanks + bye ajh ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Apologies for replying to my own mail but eventually, in fact, very eventually, it threw up an error about a corrupted Xorg file I had to cease the install. In which case, I'll stick to a minimal install take it from there. It does seems to me however that the corrupted file must be actually on the CentOS mirror (highly unlikely it's on a 14MB netinstall disc) so if that's the case, it may need reporting to whomever. If Johnny is reading this, if you furnish me with the necessary details of how to go about it, I'll Bugzilla it.

When I try this on Ubuntu (don't have a RHEL/CentOS here) I get Have to be root if I issue the /sbin/reboot command as an ordinary user. Cheers, SNIP Odd combination of systems to check right now but: 1) Fedora 18 (Xfce respin) VM console: Applications - Logout - Shutdown 2) Fedora 18 (Xfce respin) VNC session to native install: Above combination is greyed out. I can only logout. But if I go to the physical system and log in, I get the ability to shut it down. 3) Scientific Linux 6.4 console (roughly equivalent to CentOS 6.4): Applications - Logout - Shutdown 4) All of the above: CTRL-ALT-DEL key press although I have to send the key combination to the VM through the KVM GUI. 5) Power button or reset button. 6) Power cord. The last two options are why someone with physical access also has the ability to shutdown a system. Also, I run Linux on my laptop and would find it very annoying not to be able to shutdown the system when I need to.

[CentOS] dual head on centos 5 and ancient Nvidia Quadro NVS280SD card
I was just handed a 2nd monitor for my system at work, and using Centos 5 (latest) can't make dual head work. a good bit of googling isn't being particularly helpful either. It's a HP workstation xw4100, with Nvidia Quadro NVS280SD graphics card. Enabling dual head in the display app simply configures X so that it (i.e., X) won't start. I haven't found the x log file in /var/log to be helpful, either. This is using the legacy 96.x.x driver from Nvidia. the NvidiaDetect app (from epel) says it should be using a newer driver than the 96.x.x (forgot which one, exactly) but when attempting to install it I get a msg that the card requires a 96.x.x driver. browsing to nvidia.com and entering the model numbers into their driver finder app gives another newer version that also gives the same result. So it looks like I'm stuck with the 96.x.x driver. some googling indicates a few people have made it work, but none of their methods are working for me. I was beginning to wonder if the hardware even supported dual head, so I booted up a Fedora 17 LIVE CD. it initializes both monitors with no action from me at all, with a desktop spanning the two screens, just fine. It must be using the Nouveau driver (which, AFAIK, can't be used on Centos 5), so still the issue could either be spanning/dual head doesn't work with the ancient nvidia driver, or we (neither me, nor the tools on Centos) knows how to configure it. Clues would be appreciated. thanks in advance! -- Fred Smith -- fre...@fcshome.stoneham.ma.us - The Lord detests the way of the wicked but he loves those who pursue righteousness. - Proverbs 15:9 (niv) - ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Ignore that - that's the driver it needs. nsip Clues would be appreciated. thanks in advance! Someone (Karanbir?) sent me a link to the CentOS FAQ that responded to that, but I can't seem to find it, and the FAQ CentOS General Questions returns a totally blank page (even in view page source). I found this on a quick google: http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/Deployment_Guide-en-US/s1-xconfig-dualhead.html Your other options are kmod-nvidia, or the proprietary drivers - note that in the latter case, every time you get an updated kernel, you need to rebuild (which isn't a big deal). If you go this route, you'll find a new menu item, Nvidia control panel. Enable twinview, and you'll be good. mark ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Never heard of it. Just looked at it... winPE - is that the miniXP? And it bothers me that I've never heard of hirens - I*do* have to be aware of security. I'm still thinking of wine. Hirens has been around for quite a while, and gets updated periodically. its a all-in-one CD or USB boot full of mostly open source tools, can boot into memtest86, a linux kernel/shell/gui environment, or into a 'bartPE' mini-XP environment. freedos too, I think. snip Interesting. I need to look at them further. HOWEVER: I saw something there about unpacking an .exe... and googled that, and found someone talking about doing that... which led me to cabextract, and, sure 'nough, I now have what was in that exe - flat files, CD, floppy! even a WinDoze floppy label printer! Now all I have to do is figure out which will be easiest to use - I'm hoping I can just copy the flat files or the floppy files, or USB files, and reboot into freedos and go. Hope this works out. :) You could use a Windows 98 (or other Windows boot floppy) to boot and run the flashing utility. You can even boot up with your USB stick (has the utilities) plugged in ( it should become C: ). I'm sure you could find a Windows floppy image online or one of us would be happy to send you a copy (it would be about the security/trust you can have in freedos images anyways). Once you have the image it's trivial to turn a floppy image into a bootable ISO. But it sounds as if you have floppies and a floppy drive. I think the freedos bits I saw in the HP bios updating archive for my system was for the Crisis Recovery Disk. mark ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos -- ---~~.~~--- Mike // SilverTip257 // ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
[CentOS] ddclient + zoneedit, was Re: Strange Postfix problem

I don't have a static IP and use zoneedit and ddclient to keep my installation of zoneminder current. Greetings, I saw this sometime ago. I too have a domain name managed by zoneedit and have ddclient installed in the hopes of having the ip address updated whenever the DSL connection resets. However so far, I haven't been able to configure ddclient properly to do so. I keep getting the following error message in the /var/log/message file: May 6 18:27:11 leeloo ddclient[2124]: WARNING: file /var/cache/ddclient/ddclient.cache, line 3: Invalid Value for keyword 'ip' = '' ... and haven't been able to figure out how to setup /etc/ddclient.conf Any chance you could post some guidance? Thanks, Max Pyziur p...@brama.com So I decided I wanted to get zoneminder to send me email alerts. Sent some test messages but none were sent. I went to webdnstools website thinking maybe there is a dns or network problem. When it checks my dns setup, everything is fine except the mail server is has the wrong IP address. The A record and the www A record have the correct IP. The IP address its reporting is one that belongs to my ISP.
