debes contactarles tal y como te dicen, leerte todo ese sitio que te 
dan, en el cual te intentarán vender algún producto (algo llamado domain 
keys o algo así) en todo caso lo resolví implementando SPF y botando al 
spammerq ue tenía en mi servidor (en verdad tenía un spammer), por si 
acaso es bueno que verifiques que la reversa de tu IP mapee a un nombre 
y no tenga un nombre relacionado con dsl o dialup.


Y sí, a pesar de que hagas lo que hagas, tienes que contactarles, ahi 
tienen un formulario de contacto, lo hacen bastante rapido.

 No puedo dejar pasar la mención de este meme que se propaga cada vez más
 por la red.

 Meme: Sólo se debe/puede enviar e-mail desde una IP fija.

 De acuerdo a mi experiencia, la mayoría de los servidores SMTP _sí_ acepta
 correo desde direcciones dinámicas. Existen numerosos servidores que no lo
 hacen, pero no son la mayoría en ningún caso. En particular, hotmail, que
 fue el sitio que dio origen al hilo, sí acepta correo proveniente de
 direcciones dinámicas, independientemente de que en el caso particular
 tratado la IP del colistero, aparentemente, estaba sujeta a filtros
 adicionales por otras razones.

Estupendo. Tendríamos entonces un SMTP capaz de enviar correos a un  
 dominio sí,

a otro dominio no.


No es estupendo en absoluto, pero es la dura realidad, como lo atestiguan
mis configuraciones de servidores SMTP que parecen espagueti por el número
de rutas especiales que tengo que meter para darle la vuelta a los
obstáculos. Y este no es un problema sólo de los servidores con IPs
malditas (dinámicas y etc.), aunque es mucho más doloroso si es el caso.


Hablas de tu experiencia personal. Bueno, en la mía los correos eran
frecuentemente rechazados por estar en alguna lista anti-spam.   
Lista a la que
tenía el dudoso honor de pertenecer _sólo_ por tener una IP   
dinámica. No es un
meme, es un problema con el que ya me he enfrentado. Es más, ya con  
 IP fija, he
tenido que solicitar la baja varias veces de diferentes listas   
porque el rango
de IP fijas de mi proveedor estaba incluido en otro mayor de   
dinámicas o porque

el mismo proveedor únicamente consideraba como válidos los correos que
circulaban por sus servidores, excluyendo los de sus abonados. Y   
esto a pesar
de tener un dominio perfectamente válido y registrado del que no ha  
 salido ni

un solo correo basura.


Pues tenemos la misma experiencia, excepto que yo ya me aburrí hace tiempo
de andar rogándole a los administradores de RBLs y sus, muchas veces
arbitrarias, políticas, y prefiero darle la vuelta a los obstáculos
creando rutas alternativas.

Lo que pasa es que he visto que una respuesta casi estándar a la gente
que quiere montar su propio servidor SMTP es No lo hagas. Envía tu correo
mediante tu ISP que lo va a tratar mejor. No digo que no haya problemas,
los hay a montones, pero eso dista mucho de afirmar que casi todos los
servidores SMTP van a rechazar mensajes desde IPs dinámicas. En mi
experiencia, no siendo pocos los que lo hacen, no son ni con mucho la
mayoría.

Mi preocupación es que el meme se propaga y los usuarios legítimos del
protocolo caen en la misma bolsa que los spammers. Es una táctica de
desprestigio archiconocida pero que sigue dando

Hi Siva,

I have been battling with the same problem for a few weeks now. From 
everything I can find it appears that the graphics controller on these 
motherboards (mine has the C15G nVidia chipset and the controller is 
recognised as a GEForce 6100).


I followed Jim Perrin's instructions and downloaded and installed the 
nVidia driver from RPMForge and still have the same problem. My next 
step is to try to find a PCI or PCI express graphics card that is 
supported by Linux so that I can start using this server.


The subject of the thread in which my problems were discussed is: nVdia 
C15G chipset and GeForce 6100 on board graphix controller


Sorry that I cannot give you more positive feedback but hope that this 
helps in some way.

 - Improvement and maintenance of virtualization support in CentOS.
 - Assisting in building ready-to-run images for common virtualization

 - Maintenance of the centos-virt mailing list. This list is used for 
   discussing virtualization of and on CentOS, as well as discussion of

[CentOS] Performance Issues

2007-09-02 Thread Dan Dansereau
My apology for cross posting

We have a DELL6850 with 8Gbytes of memory,  four 3.2Ghz CPU's , perc 4
raid controller, with fourteen 300Gbyte 10Krpm disk on a powervault
220s, And a powervault 124T  LTO-3 tape systems on a separate
160Mbyte/sec adaptec SCSI card.
The disks are configured as two 2Tbyte raid 0 partitions using the perc
4 hardware. 

The problem is - reading from the disk, and writing to the tape is
pathetically slow.
The specs say I should get around 80Mbyte/second - in reality - is about
500 Kbytes/second 

Writing just to tape, using /dev/zero as input and dd to write, I can
get up to 60Mybte/second, indicating that the tape drive and scsi card
is functional from a hardware perspective. Since I can read and write
data to the disks - I assume that they are functional.
The files are 80Mybtes for the minimum size that I am writing to tape. 

DELL Support hides behind the fact that CENTOS is not a supported OS,
But RED HAT is - so switch to it, so DELL can get RED HAT Support
involved. And the fact that Rocks is a modification to an unsupported
OS 

I have tried using various block size in tar from 256 to 8192 - with
minimal success.

Does anybody have any experience on setting the OS/Kernel parameters to
utilize the hardware at something more then a snails pace?
Or
Suggestions on what I could test and/or try?
Or 
Is there a standard disk / tape IO test package that could test the
speed/performance of the disks and /or tapes?

 just to be accurate, this doesn't happen when using --no-dereference and it 
 is not 
 changing permissions to root, but to user who is the owner of the link, so:
 
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] home]# ls -la user/.openoffice/user/work
 lrwxrwxrwx  1 nobody root 13 Aug 28 14:35 user/.openoffice/user/work - 
 /home/user

 drwxr-xr-x  66 user staff 4096 /home/user
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] home]# chgrp -R staff user/
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] home]# ls -ld user/
 drwxr-xr-x  66 nobody staff 4096 user/
 snip sig stuff

ISTM it's a bug and should be reported on both CentOS and RH tracking
systems. Two errors are apparent. One may be difficult to correct.

As you originally discovered, the user ID is being change during
execution of the command to change a group. And it is using the ID from
the symbolic link owner, as you later noticed.

The 2nd bug is a recursion into the original directory via the symbolic
link when dereference is not suppressed. IMO, recursion should not
occur, but I know from a programming background that it takes a little
foresight, thought and intense effort to avoid this sort of trap.

As an afterthought, how valid is it to have user control files that are
supposed to be contained in an invisible directory in the user's
$HOME? This presents a non-standard structure that offers increased
opportunities for mishaps of various types.

 Someone say I need use crossover type of cable, but

Crossover cables are easy. I make my own straight-through and crossovers
when needed.

Regardless, the others were right: you *did* need a crossover *until*
you put an auto-sensing switch into the mix. I have one of these on my
home network (SMCGS8 unmanaged) and have sense not made up any custom
cables.

As others have stated though, I do have both cross-over and straight
patch cables on-hand JIC.

Anyway, if you make your own, when the RJ-45 connectors are held side-
by-side clips down facing same direction:

straight = colors occur in same sequence in both
cross-over = colors occur in mirror sequence.

For GB E'net, this is more important as two pairs are used. For 10Mb,
only one pair is used, so the simple reverse TX/RX works.

Hmmm... I'm assuming USOC 568A wiring? Can't remember. Anyway, the pin
assignments are the same. Only the color sequence is different.

 
 Thanks.

Auto-sensing allows using either straight or cross-over cables to be
used (among other functions) and automatically corrects TX/RX to match
the cable used. A straight cable to a switch is the norm and doesn't
need auto-sensing.

For *most* E'net cards w/o an intervening switch/hub, cross-over would
be needed though, as others have said.
