  and reboot the PC also
  setenforce 1
  i have getting the following message only
  setenforce: SELinux is disabled

Use "getenforce" to determine the current status of selinux.  Look in
/etc/selinux/config for details of policy being used - e.g. targeted.
 


 2. Selinux Customize my own policy
   


man setsebool
man getsebool

These will help you modify options in the supplied policies.  For
example, use "getsebool -a | grep http" to list all selinux options and
filter the list for those pertaining to http.  You can of course create
your own policy and local customisations based on audit logs etc, but
I've not ventured down this path myself.  Others on the list will be

Hope that gets you started :)

each connection to mysql spawns a thread, however under various

otherwise, yes, mysql is fully multithreaded, as long as you're making

I think you're confusing the new syntax for "yum provides"

Strange since the FAQ for snmpd specifically says per-cpu
stats are not accurate.

What about multi-processor systems?
--

Sorry - the CPU statistics (both original percentages, and the
  newer raw statistics) both refer to the system as a whole.  There
  is currently no way to access individual statistics for a particular
  processor (except on Solaris systems - see below).

Note that although the Host Resources table includes a hrProcessorTable,
  the current implementation suffers from two major flaws.  Firstly, it
  doesn't currently recognise the presence of multiple processors, and
  simply assumes that all systems have precisely one CPU.  Secondly, it
  doesn't calculate the hrProcessorLoad value correctly, and either returns
  a dummy value (based on the load average) or nothing at all.

As of net-snmp version 5.1, the Solaris operating system delivers some
  information about multiple CPU's such as speed and type.

Other than that, to monitor a multi-processor system, you're currently
  out of luck.  We hope to address this in a future release of the agent.
  But you've got the source, so you can always have a go yourself :-)

---

I'm not aware of any other tool that reports stats on a per-CPU
basis(e.g. sar, vmstat, etc) on a 2.6.x kernel, though per-cpu
stats were available in older 2.4.x kernels with SAR at least,
though I've always only been interested in cpu usage as a whole
rather than per-cpu stats. My main cacti server has 2555 graphs
as it is.

I have too many hundreds of hours invested in cacti right now
to make the jump to anything else at the moment..but perhaps
some day I will jump ship and use something else, or go back
to writing my own, which I used to do in order to get higher
resolution monitoring several years ago(e.g. 10,30,60 second
intervals). My cacti collects about 11 million data points a day
today with room on the hardware to probably go to 25 million
before needing a 2nd server(dual proc quad core 16GB).

It must... I haven't waded through the details of how it does it, but a 
default OpenNMS install will collect and graph a CPU usage chart that 
stacks user/nice/wait/system/interrupts and seems accurate except that 
it is per-cpu (i.e. will go to 400% on a hyperthreaded dual-cpu box).


It also does a CPU statistics chart that does a line graph for the 
1/5/15 minute values with the space under the line color-coded for %cpu 
utilization.



Then I have a script that queries the data(along with other
data) and feeds it into cacti as a single set of results
(to be stored in 1 RRD file) which really helps cacti scale

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/bin]$ ./linux-basics-net.pl us-cfe002 public

And it does  a system memory stats graph with color-coded:
used/io_buff/shared/filesytem cache/available/swap/real values.


Unfortunately with every passing revision of sar it becomes
more and more difficult to parse, I really miss the version
from RHEL 3 days, that one was great, it had a special
human readable output option which has since been taken out
(it would spit out each stat on one line making it easy
to parse).


You might want to look at opennms if you haven't already.  Now that they 
have a yum repo it is very easy to install.

Seems like the SNMPD included in CentOS 5.x has improved somewhat
vs v4.

>From the FAQ

What do the CPU statistics mean - is this the load average?
--

  No.  Unfortunately, the original definition of the various CPU statistics
  was a little vague.  It referred to a "percentage", without specifying
  what period this should be calculated over.  It was therefore
  implemented slightly differently on different architectures.

Recent releases includes "raw counters", which can be used to
  calculate the percentage usage over any desired period.  This is
  the "right" way to handle things in the SNMP model.  The original
  flawed percentage objects should not be used, and will be removed
  in a future release of the agent.

Note that this is different from the Unix load average, which is
  available via the loadTable, and is supported on all architectures.

---

Older versions would basically spit out random values for CPU
usage. For about the past 5 years I have used scripts that run
out of cron, that run sar and parse the output and send the
results to a file, then configure SNMP to tail that file when
a particular OID is queried. This has given me really dependable
results over the years.

I know you're testing. but once you get a "stable" config, restart is
often unnecessary. in most cases a 'postfix reload' is enough (and even
that isn't necessary in general, as most postfix services are relatively
short lived and will reread the conf at some time). of course, if you
change an IP:port, ..., you need to restart.

the 'd' in "-d" stands for "default". Use

# postconf myhostname
or
# postconf -n myhostname
or
# postconf -h myhostname

instead.

Nagios is for alerts and notifications, Cacti is for graphing trends.
While either can be forced into the other role, each is best at it does

postconf -d does not do what you think it does. I guess the machine is called
sx1.labs.hlacik.eu.

Try postconf -n myhostname

Is that the name a gethostname() would show? (a gethostname would either 
return the same as the hostname command or a host command on the IP, I 
think). Then it makes sense.
mail.hlacik.eu points to another machine. You do not want to send out any 
mail from your machine with a name that is pointing somewhere else.

I am having some problems installing CentOS 5.2 x86_64 onto a

drives but when I boot into the CentOS 5 install CD it fails to see
the drives. Does anybody have any tips for getting the drives visible?


I have a SuperMicro 6015P-TR that I just installed CentOS 5.2 x84_64. I 
struggled for 2 days trying to get the HostRAID RAID 1 working. I was 
only able to get 5.1 to install but not 5.2 (supermicro only has 5.1 
drivers on its site). After the install, the server saw each drive 
individually sda, sdb rather than as one device and quit working after 
installing updates to the latest kernel.


I googled around for answers and there was very little useful 
information available in getting this to work.


In the end, I just bought a 3ware 9650SE-4LPML after hearing good things 
about these cards on this list, installed it one of the PCI-Express 
slots, pulled the cable to the drive backplane on the mobo and plugged 
in right into the card and installed C5.2. Worked like a charm.

I haven't been keeping up with this thread, so I apologize for repeating any

1) Cacti (http://www.cacti.net/)
2) Centreon (http://www.centreon.com/)

[CentOS] Perl CGI scripts - stripping out unwanted carriage returns etc

[Andrew Allen]

I have a number of perl CGI scripts which I wrote some time ago (and
which are working successfully on my website). I've set up a local
server on which to do some development work on the scripts but I can't
get them to work - the error log says:
No such file or directory: exec of '/var/www/cgi-bin/script.cgi' failed
Premature end of script headers: script.cgi etc

By comparing two identical very simple cgi scripts (one works, the other
doesn't), I've traced the problem to, apparently, unwanted carriage
returns which have somehow got into the perl text files. Is there a
quick and easy way (ie piece of software) to strip out these things, or
do I have to do it manually?
Thanks for any help,
Andy

when you install bind and chroot bind stuff it would go here

IIRC the EDAC i5000 is the memory controller of the server, and it
looks like something went wrong with a DIMM and that is probably why
it crashed. So it looks like you may have a (intermittent) hardware
issue.

[CentOS] Yum and case-sensitivity

[Jeff]

Hi List,

On one of our servers (CentOS 4 32 bit), we have the dag repo enabled.  
Yesterday morning during a yum update, yum replaced the CentOS package  
"perl-DBD-MySQL" with one from dag, "perl-DBD-mysql".


For whatever reason, the two packages differ, in that only one of them  
(the CentOS built one) includes:

/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi/Mysql.pm
	/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi/Mysql/ 
Statement.pm


I've excluded the dag version in our yum.conf so it won't re-apply it  
and break perl code that has "use Mysql;", but I'm confused as to why  
yum saw fit to replace the package, and, why it did so yesterday.  
(This box has not had any packages added or removed, outside the  
standard 'yum update', for many months; and the only repo other than  
CentOS-managed ones it he dag one.)


Bug? Expected behavior?

As you might have seen I actually found a workaround. Your findings on

Especially I'm not sure anymore about what that group id 500 should be.

Thanks in advance,

When you replied the first time, you *did* guess. It is quite obvious that 
you do not need to remove what you suggested.

> I have been working with Apache for over 8 years

I can top that easily. So, what?

> After such a blatant insult I should think about dropping this list.

Then please do. I didn't insult you in any way. It's you who's suddenly 
begun to flame. I haven't seen such a reaction for a long time on this 
list.

Then please read what I wrote in that sentence instead of flaming. You 
cannot just say "I do not use it" and present this as the solution. It 
depends on the configuration and for almost all configurations it will not 
work! Especially not for the one Mike is using.

> This example is straight from the documentation listed above.

Yeah. And, amazingly, wow, it has ServerName in it. Something that you 
suggested to omit. And it's got the port as well, something else you 
suggested to omit. Hm. Should I follow the documentation or should I follow 
your advice?

> There is no ServerAlias for the second VirtualHost entry.

I suggest you read again what I wrote instead of flaming. Maybe then you 
understand what I wrote. I figure that you may have confused ServerName and 
ServerAlias. Maybe you meant to say "I run a Virtual Host entry without a 
*ServerAlias* directive". Just that we weren't talking about ServerAlias. 
Even if we had, that's not an excuse for such a flame.

> I hope this solves the NameVIrtualHost issue for the time being at least.

It definitely does not as you are confusing people as best as you can with 
your writings.

> I only use ServerName and have not tried ServerAlias.

You didn't ever use that in "over 8 years" of experience with Apache? Don't 
answer, this was a rhetorical question.

No, I won't answer any more of your flames.

You point base *and* updates to

http://mirror.example.com/centos/$releasever/{os,updates}/$basearch

That way you'll go to 5.2 with the next "yum update". 

Remember: There is *NO* 5.0 anymore, there is *NO* 5.1 anymore, it is
CentOS5 with the current set being at point release 5.2. And then 5.3,
5.4, 5.5 - it is all CentOS 5.
