Of Dag Wieers

Subject: [CentOS] Network installation from CD

Hi,

In a corporate environment we are not allowed to use DHCP/PXE for doing
network installations. This means we have to look for other solutions. Our
solution is to use an ISO image (mounted via a KVM solution) to kick off the
network installation.

A big problem currently is that the order of the network interfaces is
arbitrary (depends on the order of the drivers loaded) and is not influence
by the order of the PCI slots. So in our case we have a bunch of e1000, bnx2
and
tg3 in systems we have to install.

The first onboard interface (usually tg3 or bnx2) almost never is eth0, but
instead can be eth2, eth3 or higher. (Depending on the number of other
NICs) This is problematic because Anaconda never gives a very good analysis
of why the download of the kickstart fails. Very unpleasant if you want
system deployements done by Service Operations.

So our solution was to provide  ksdevice=MAC-ADDRESS , which works fine in
the first phase for downloading the kickstart file, but then the kickstart
file again has a network-directive with a  --device=  parameter to configure
the network again in the second phase.

Here is where the trouble starts.

The  --device=  cannot handle MAC addresses, in other words if we ommit the
--device=  parameter we get a list of interfaces, which we do not want
because the list does not indicate which one is the right interface.

Using  ksdevice=bootif  and providing  BOOTIF=MAC-ADDRESS  on the
commandline does not help either because the second phase always wants to
reconfigure the network.

In fact we don't want the second phase to reconfigure the network, we want
it to keep the working network configuration from the first phase which
worked fine for downloading the kickstart file.

So here's my question:

Is there a way to have the second phase network configuration NOT take
place, or have it use the interface that was correctly downloading the
kickstart file ?

I could not find it anywhere and none of my tests seem to indicate that this
is at all possible.

This is on RHEL/CentOS 4.6.

JohnStanley Writes:

I thought this issue was fixed in the 2.6.55 release kernel. Also Some where
I came across where there is an option to KS.cfg to use the first available
network connection there is and that was supposed to solve the delima. Maybe
not solved in the 4 release. I had this problem with Dell Servers.
 
Option is to use a local floppy/cdrom/whatnot and specify network
--bootproto=dhcp --device=eth0 which you probally don't want.

Have you tried using a different USB cable, and maybe a different USB
controller?  That would narrow down your search parameters a bit.

You can also try running Seagate's Seatools program - it is available
for Linux from their web site, but you have to poke around a little to
find it.

Also, have you tried any other diagnostics to see what might be the problem?

I ASSuME that different interfaces are plugged into different switch ports on 
a switch supporting VLANs? Perhaps the same switch for all ports.


Can you set up those ports, so that for install, they are all on the same 
VLAN? So it would not matter which interface is used for the install, the IP 
address you assign it will work on it?


Robert,

The problem here is that multiple teams are involved and every additional 
step does not only make the whole installation harder, it makes it more 
error-prone.


The 2 datacenters are 400km away, the teams speak another language.

And frankly, if we specify the MAC address and we can have a proper 
network going to download the kickstart file. We should be able to do the 
same for the second phase (downloading the media/packages).


Adding a step where room-management is going to repatch the system is 
highly undesirable, because it should be avoidable.

You might consider posting some logs from what you're doing so that we
can see the errors your ftp client gives you. You might also consider
giving some details about the server and how it's set up, as the
server doesn't know/care if a client is gui based or not. It simply
interprets the ftp protocol commands and responds accordingly.

[CentOS] Rpmbuild and how to disable automatic dependency list creation.

2008-09-29 Thread Friedrich Clausen
Hello All,

When I build RPM packages, rpmbuild always scans all the executables,
shared libs, perl scripts, etc. to find out which external libraries
the application depends on. This is normally a Good Thing but I am
currently packaging an in-house, self contained application.

I could almost use a tarball but an RPM provides better manageability
and also allows post-installation tasks. All shared libraries are
under a single prefix, which is not in the system-wide ld.so.conf - it
is configured in the startup script of the application. However,
rpmbuild finds all these dependencies and adds them to the list of
Requires, which is not desirable in this case.

My question therefore is - how can I tell rpmbuild to stop
automatically creating a dependency list? The best I can come up with
at the moment is to add the following to my ~/.rpmmacros (line numbers
added by me):

[1] %__os_install_post  /usr/lib/rpm/brp-strip-comment-note
[2] %__find_requires   /bin/true
[3] %__perl_requires   /bin/true

So:

[1] - Stop it stripping already stripped binaries.
[2] and [3] - This stops it doing the automatic dependency list creation.

This seems a bit heavy handed though, is there another, cleaner way to do it?

Regards,

Fred.

Actually BackupPC does run on CentOS without any problem.
I use BackupPC hosted on a CentOS 5.2 server to backup some Windows
laptops.

On the other hand the Unix machines, including the CentOS machines,
while they could be served by a BackupPC server as well, I do those
backups using Amanda, mostly because that is what I used for more
than 8 years now, and because we need tapes as well.

Amanda never left me in the cold, even after terrible hard disk
crashes or operator mistakes.

This is not a setup problem and not a CentOS problem. Your script is

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

By Content line I meant this line:

print Content-type: text/html\n\n;

I have tried many scripts, they all do this. I have problems with 
JavaScript too so I am not sure yet about this just being a Perl or CGI 
problem. I might even have multiple problems. I can see the possibility 
of permission problems, Perl problems, CGI problems, and/or browser 
problems. I am running the latest released version of all including IE 
and Firefox. All I do know is what all the examples that show this as 
working don't work. I have the book, CGI Programing 101, and can't get 
its examples to work.

Not that I know of.

Yes!

I do something similar here. I use a script to generate the network
line, because I want to choose my IPs and netmasks during installation
and I don't want to hardcode them in the ks.cfg file.

Here is what I do:

I create a %pre section to ks.cfg, this will be a script (in my case a
Python script) that will ask the user for any needed information. Then
it will look up the boot-up interface by looking at
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf and choosing the first entry that starts with
eth, then it will generate a network line and save it to
/tmp/netconfig.

Then, before on the ks.cfg file, where the network configuration is
expected, I use a %include /tmp/netconfig

For me, it works like a charm! Let us know if you try it and it works for you.

[CentOS] scp and key login

2008-09-29 Thread Kai Schaetzl
It seems the certificate-based login doesn't work on both sides of the 
remote connection when using scp?
Scenario:
User on PC A can SSH login to PCs B and C with his certificate, no 
password prompt.
When User on PC A runs a scp operation from B to C he's asked for the 
password on C.

Does the scp actually open a connection from B to C (User doesn't have a 
certificate on B)? This would explain the problem. I hoped to avoid such a 
problem by scping from a third machine that normally has certificate-based 
access to all machines.

If you execute this from the command line, you should see the 
Content-type: header as part of the text output.  When apache runs it 
under the cgi interface the parts up to the blank line (\n\n) should 
be included in the http headers and the rest in the body of the 
response.  If you have copied the example files from somewhere, be sure 
that they aren't formated for windows with extra carriage returns 
embedded and if you are entering your own code be sure you don't output 
anything but valid header lines before the blank line.

What you probably meant is find / -iname *.jpg -or -iname *.JPG,
but as it was already pointed out, -iname is case-insensitive, so all
you need is:
# find / -iname *.jpg

If you used the wrong command, maybe run it again?

 unless it's a bug with fuse-encfs.

If you are using ext3 over fuse-encfs, if there is a problem with
fuse-encfs it would bork your ext3 filesystem, but probably the end
result would be a corrupted and unusable filesystem, not one with
files missing. In any case, you might try to unmount it and run fsck
over it to see if there is something wrong with it. If the filesystem
got corrupted, by running fsck it might be able to find the missing
files and save them under lost+found, it's a long shot, but if you
tried everything else it might be worth trying.

I believe your HTML file has already caused the server to emit the

Content-type: text/html

line before it gets to the exec line; so when the perl program prints  
that line, it appears in the normal text output instead of as an HTTP  
directive. If you want to use the perl program this way, you're  
better of using it as a CGI instead of a server include file.

[CentOS] scp partition not a regular file

2008-09-29 Thread henry ritzlmayr
Hi list, 

should it be possible to scp a partition with this command:

scp /dev/sda7 backupserver:/backup/sda7.img

I always get not a regular file - which is a clear and understandable
error, but my googling tells me that some people are doing this - and it
seems to work - at least at their systems.

I know that I can avoid this by simply doing

dd if=/dev/sda7 | ssh backupserver dd of=/backup/sda7.img

So its not a big deal - just curious. 

System here is a fully updated CentOS 5.2
x86_64 if that matters

any thoughts?

Have you tried variations on the path? e.g if your executing
a shell I don't think ./cgi-bin/ would be a valid path, it would
be relative to the file system itself.

Also is the html file being called named .shtml or .html ? Unless
you changed the default behavior of apache server side includes
I believe are ignored unless the extension is .shtml.

 If you would rather not wait, you could remove

/dev/sda7 is just a file, if you copy it it doesn't mean you'll

You need to stream the contents of the file to get the data from

[CentOS] Re: scp partition not a regular file

 /dev/sda7 is just a file, if you copy it it doesn't mean you'll
 copy the contents of the partition you'll just copy the block
 file itself, equivalent to running the mknod command on the
 other end.
 
 You need to stream the contents of the file to get the data from
 it, like your dd example.

Thanks for the answer nate, I get your idea. 
There are just a few odd things with it. 

scp backupserver:/backup/sda7.img /dev/sda7 

Works like a charm - meaning it copies the content.

cp /dev/sda7 /backup/sda7.img

Works like a charm as well. 


And the research for example:
 
http://sammoffatt.com.au/knowledge-base-mainmenu/6-daily-linux/9-scp-and-ssh

Describes exactly this procedure - which looks like it works there.

hmm strange. I wouldn't expect it to work though I so rarely
use scp anymore, rsync is better, and it behaves as I described.

In any case I believe copying directly from the device like that is
a bad practice to get into, unless you always plan to have that
volume unmounted. You risk considerable data corruption if any
data is written to the device while you are reading from it.

What do people use to backup Centos systems?

you can use rsync which uses ssh but is faster than scp because it only 
transfers the change between two files.

I always get not a regular file - which is a clear and understandable
error, but my googling tells me that some people are doing this - and it
seems to work - at least at their systems.



i think there are two simple ways to do this :

1 mount /dev/sda7 under say /mnt and scp -r /mnt destination
2 and rsync - i think it is most simple and suitable for backup through
ssh.

Rsync is one of the options that backuppc can use for the transport. 
There should be a packaged backuppc in the centos testing repo, but it 
isn't hard to install from source.

Let me guess...

you named it test, right? Then when you run test nothing happens?

two things:
1. there's already a program named test, which displays no output,
it merely has an exit status.
2. for a program in your current directory, run it with a preceding ./,
e.g., ./test--because . is not in the path (and shouldn't be).

This reminds me. I tried playing with c++ once back in like 96. I made a
hello program on my windows 95 system and then forgot about it.
I kept that system and never reformatted all the way through to windows xp.
I could not believe it was working.

One day in 2002 or so, I entered the command prompt and bored, typed 'hello'
to my computer.
It replied by saying 'hello bob, about time you got this working'

So, after I got spooked, I remembered that program from years ago...still on
the computer.

I know off topic, but it was funny

[CentOS] OT - Monitoring tool

2008-09-29 Thread Robert Spangler
Hello everyone,

While I know this isn't Centos related, you guys seems to be on top of your 
game around here.  Sorry for the off-topic.

I'm looking for a tool to monitor my servers and send either an email or page 
or both when something breaks.  I would like it to monitor all sorts of 
services on the servers with one small detail, I'd like it to be able to 
confiugre so if the DBA need something monitor that is hosted on a shared 
system that they can only change what they are responsible for and not 
something else that is being monitored on that system.

Is there such a program out there?

[CentOS] Configure an ATI Radeon X1200 card?

2008-09-29 Thread Niki Kovacs

Hi,

I want to configure X on a NEC PC with an ATI graphic card. Usually, I 
do that by hand, e. g.:


# init 3
# X -configure  -- first draft
# mv xorg.conf.new /etc/X11

Then I edit this with Vi, step by step. Usually, this works, but not for 
ATI cards. Here, the first draft only gives me a vesa driver... though 
xorg-x11-drv-ati is installed. But then, when I replace


Driver vesa

by:

Driver ati

I get a No screens found error.

Until now, I've successfully configured dozens of different video cards, 
mostly Intel and NVidia (old and new), and also a few ATI cards (with 
the opensource driver). But this is the first ATI card that gives me 
trouble.


Any suggestions?

Niki

/dev/sda7 was just used to keep the example simple. I use this to copy
lvm based xen Dom-Us from one system to the other - either for backup or
for creating a test environment. I am fully aware that only unmounted,
it will be consistent.

If the content of /dev/sda7 is a filesystem I agree, but if its a raw
device (databases, or xen DOM-Us), then this won´t work. 

What I am trying to figure out is, why does this work on some (not mine)
systems?

RE: [CentOS] Configure an ATI Radeon X1200 card?

2008-09-29 Thread John

 IMO I think you would be better off get the drivers from ATI and use them.
I have had better results with getting the propriatery drivers for those
cards. Nvidia drivers come with a graphical X configuration utility after
you build the kernel module driver.

Optionaly you can run system-config-display with the deafault configured X
config and select the ati card. Also if this is a duel monitor output card,
that could be where your ((NO Screens Are Found)) Error. Post your
Xorg.config file.
