Dear John. Has anyone consulted on what if any legal actions or problems would come up if this was done? In other words does The CentOS Project deam to consult the legal actions that can be taken from doing this and how it could hurt the CentOS Project. I don't think that this is really necessary at the moment as long as we take care of the trademark guidelines. The relationships between RedHat and CentOS are getting more friendlier these days. Also note that RedHat is able to change the guidelines at any time, so who knows what tomorrow might bring.

[CentOS] Closing a multi-session disk
I have a disk which is not being recognised for reading, and I suspect that it may be a multi-session disk which has not been closed. K3b seems to agree with me, since it lists it as an appendable data cd. However, I can't find any way to close the session in k3b. I thought I remembered that it was possible to do that in xcdroast - which is almost certainly the application that burned the disk in the first place. However, xcdroast tells me that no disk is loaded. That brings me to ask those of you that use command-line burning if you know of any way I can close this disk.

And since it looks as though the disk is not being recognised I can't simply add a few files to get closure. I'm beginning to wonder whether the disk is actually a year older than I first thought, in which case it would have been burned in Nero. Maybe multi-session is not or was not defined enough to be used cross-distro. Then again, you can't read an un-closed DVD from one drive on another one, so it may be that I just have to throw the disk out and hope that I had copies somewhere else of whatever was on it. One thing, though. It has prompted me to go through all my old backup disks and make sure that nothing important exists in only one copy. :-) Anne signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Re: [CentOS] Problem with widescreen display
Hi, It is really strange, I would expect problems with FC4. Could you send your xorg.conf and describe your graphic hardware? BR Vaclav Marko Vojinovic wrote: I have a dual boot CentOS 5.2 / FC4 machine, and recently I have bought a new widescreen tft monitor. I used to use a plain 4:3 crt, and after plugging the 16:9 tft naturally X needed reconfiguring. This was easy in FC4, and seemed as easy in CentOS, but with a wrong result. Basically, what I did was to run system-config-display to reconfigure for the new monitor and resolution. All goes well, but after X restarts, I see a strange picture: the resolution indeed goes to 1680x1050 as is supposed to, but is squeezed/shrinked/scaled horizontally to match a 4:3 aspect ratio, leaving two (unequal) black bands on the left and right side of the monitor. This is specific to 1680x1050 resolution, while lower ones display ok up to the fact that the virtual screen is usually bigger than the displayed part so scrolling is necessarry (and this is annoying, for I cannot see the panel and the top of the window simultaneously). The very same hardware and virtually same X configuration work perfectly ok on FC4, which suggests that this is not a hardware problem, nor an X problem. Further, as I see, FC4 has older version of virtually all software than CentOS. I have tried various acrobatics with xorg.conf, but nothing helped; read Xorg.0.log inside out and back, compared to FC4, and everything seems essentially identical. X seems to work as everything is ok, so is mplayer (even in fullscreen), but the black bands remain there and the whole desktop is scaled to 4:3. The monitor autoadjust button also doesn't help (although it works in general). I'm out of ideas where to look for the cause of this. If you wish, I can post xorg.conf and log files from both OSes, but they are mainly identical and I see nothing suspicious. Btw, this is on an nVidia GeForce 4 using the default nv driver. The vesa driver doesn't support widescreen resolutions, while nvidia binary driver crashes X completely on start (but this is a known motherboard problem common to FC4 as well). Is there some kernel setting or whatever that might force the graphics card to 4:3 aspect irrespective of X configuration? Some filter between what X tries to display and the actual signal to the monitor? What else can I try? Any advice appreciated!

[CentOS] nfs and permissions
My CentOS box is my server for data and some services, including nfs shares. On my laptop I have folderviews displaying two directories on the server, via nfs mounts. An fstab line mounts each, such as: 192.168.0.40:/home /mnt/borg2_home nfs nosuid,exec,rw,bg,soft,intr 0 0 From the folderview I have no problem accessing the files and directories. Now comes the problem. I use kontact, with imap mail (working fine) and a calendar/diary (korganizer) mounted as a remote file. At least, I did, until this new install. I can give it the path, but I don't see any entries. I suspect that it is a permissions problem, but I can't see anything obvious. The firewall is temporarily disabled. Any ideas. please?

[CentOS] How to get Bugzilla working on CentOS 5.2 with SELinux turned on?
Hi. Has anyone figured out how to get Bugzilla working on CentOS 5.2 WITHOUT TURNING OFF SELINUX? I've run chcon -R --reference=/var/www/html /path/to/bugzilla and added the following module (generated by audit2allow), but am still getting errors in my Web browser tryinig to use Bugzilla: Software error: Can't connect to the database. Error: could not connect to server: Permission denied Is the server running on host localhost and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432? Is your database installed and up and running? Do you have the correct username and password selected in localconfig? And there is an AVC denial as well: type=AVC msg=audit(1225832104.970:405): avc: denied { connect } for pid=30831 comm=index.cgi scontext=user_u:system_r:httpd_sys_script_t:s0 tcontext=user_u:system_r:httpd_sys_script_t:s0 tclass=tcp_socket Here is the module I added: module local 1.0; require { type httpd_sys_script_t; class tcp_socket setopt; } #= httpd_sys_script_t == allow httpd_sys_script_t self:tcp_socket setopt; [EMAIL PROTECTED] selinux]# httpd_sys_script_t == allow httpd_sys_script_t self:tcp_socket setopt; I've tried running the AVC denial message through audit2allow again, but it just produced the same module that I already have loaded. Any suggestions?

Try this: # setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect_db 1 (The command above will make the setting permanent.) I verified that Bugzilla also tries to check its website for updates, so for that to work you will also need: # setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect 1 HTH, Filipe ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I intend to read manual of these two when I got my machine to test, for a while maybe I can get some insight from those who have already experience using these tools. You can do all that with both tools. Bacula is tape oriented, so if you're backing up to tape it's going to be the tool for you. It also supports backing up to disk, but it backs up to disk as if it was a tape (a set of tapes, actually) which is kind of awkward. In my opinion, Bacula's user interface is kind of weird too. Backuppc backs up to disk only, but it has a great advantage that it finds duplicate files and uses hardlinks to reduce storage usage, so it can usually back up much more data than Bacula in the same space. Another advantage of Backuppc is that it backs up using rsync or tar over ssh or smbtar for Windows, so in general you don't need to install an agent on the client machines. It's web interface is also very good. So, you should choose mainly based on the media you're using for backups. IMHO, if you still use tapes, forget the past and move to the future of disk-based backups, and adopt Backuppc as your tool.
