[CentOS-virt] 32bit host and guest, TLS

Aparte la configuración que tienes para local( dentro del server, si estás usando OpenVpn ) no te servira para fuera ) Te recomiendo que hagas otra OpenVpn para las conexiones entrantes desde fuera de tu red local. Usando para ello la ip pública que tenga asignada tu oficina ( ojo! si la ip no es estática puede cambiar ) , por tu proveedor de servicios de inet. Y que mapees el router.

Hi,

[frank...@jeff ~]$ pkg-config --cflags gtk+-2.0
Package cairo was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `cairo.pc'
From previous posts, you seem to have a x86_64 machine and in some
cases you have both i386 and x86_64 versions of the same package
installed... I believe your problem might be there.
Before you showed the output of rpm -q gtk2-devel and it showed it
twice, which indicates you have both i386 and x86_64 versions
installed, I believe you should have the x86_64 version only. Try to
uninstall the 32-bit version with the yum erase gtk2-devel.i386
command.
Also, check that the version of pkgconfig and cairo-devel you have
installed are the x86_64 versions. You can do that with this command
(and expected output):
$ rpm -q --qf '%{name}-%{version}-%{release}.%{arch}\n' pkgconfig cairo-devel
pkgconfig-0.21-2.el5.x86_64
cairo-devel-1.2.4-5.el5.x86_64
That might shed some more light on that issue. Once you get
pkg-config to work again, try to rerun your ./configure and see if
it works now as you expect.
BTW, what exactly are you building? Did you try to see if someone
managed to package it as an RPM before? That might help...
HTH,

Is this an acceptable idea? *NO!*. dd is NOT a proper backup tool... I don't know where the idea that it is comes from (probably some really old UNIX sys admin book or something). dd has many uses, but it is not normally considered a backup tool. Dump is a perfectly acceptable backup tool. Dump was *designed* as the backup tool of choice. And it works just fine on a read-write file system, with the *standard* disclaimer that if used on a file system that is 'active', it (*like all backup tools*) will miss files that are being created/writen to during the backup. Generally, the missed files will be gotten on a later backup. On a normal, typical system, one would run the full backup at a 'quiet' time (a time frame of low activity, with the idea of avoiding having the backup interfere with normal activities and of normal activities interfering with the backup. On a typical normal system, the missed files will likely be things like the tail end of log files or various trasienent files (like mail queue files and the like). If you want a non-live mirror on the second does do this: Pick a 'quiet' time (say on a quiet Sunday morning) and do this: (Assume that /dev/sdb1 is the sole partition on the second disk): # mkfs.ext3 -L SecondDisk /dev/sdb1 # mkdir /seconddisk # mount -v -t ext3 LABEL=SecondDisk /seconddisk # dump 0f - / | (cd /seconddisk; restore -rf -) At this point pick out a good book to read and get comfortable and read a chapter or three or you can do whatever you would do to kill some time -- ie go for a walk (or walk the dog), play a game of hoops or go for a swim or whatever. I am assuming that the disk is probably good sized, so full dump may take some time. You could stare at the screen for an hour, if that floats your boat... Dump will display a progress report every 5 minutes. # umount -v /seconddisk Now create a script (Let's call it '/usr/local/sbin/dailybackup'): #!/bin/sh /sbin/e2fsck -C -T -a LABEL=SecondDisk mount -v -t ext3 LABEL=SecondDisk /seconddisk rsync -v -a -x -H --delete --delete-after --exclude=lost+found/ / /seconddisk umount -v /seconddisk # chmod +x /usr/local/sbin/dailybackup Now create a daily cron job: # crontab -e Add the line: 10 0 * * * /usr/local/sbin/dailybackup And you are all set. Once a day an 10 past midnight, the backup disk will be sync'ed to the live system disk. Every morning you will get a message from cron with the output. If you really want to, you can change the '0' above to '0,6,12,18' and the sync'ing will happen every 6 hours.

Re: [CentOS] link to commercial support page isn't really helpful
Commercial support is currently unavailable, although this is being investigated by the community. The difficulty is that CentOS is a volunteer run effort. Don't overreact Spiro. I really like your blurb, but the difficulty sentence has a negative ring. Please rephrase that single line and you get a gold-star. ;-) I (amicably) object to the currently unavailable phrase. As has been mentioned support is available. I would suggest the following change: Currently the Centos Project cannot endorse any specific support offering and does not directly offer commercial support. Support is available from third party consultants and firms. Volunteer support is available via IRC (channel #centos), Centos mailing lists and the Centos forums. - I would avoid making any promises like we are working on a support program or working on an endorsement program simply because there is no telling when such a program would get rolled out. Keeping people waiting around for a long time is not so good for the Centos image. FWIW, I think we should lighten up on the original poster. He asked a simple question, he got an answer.

Dump is a perfectly acceptable backup tool. Dump was *designed* as the backup tool of choice. And it works just fine on a read-write file system, with the *standard* disclaimer that if used on a file system that is 'active', it (*like all backup tools*) will miss files that are being created/writen to during the backup. Generally, the missed files will be gotten on a later backup. On a normal, typical system, one would run the full backup at a 'quiet' time (a time frame of low activity, with the idea of avoiding having the backup interfere with normal activities and of normal activities interfering with the backup.

I am assuming that the disk is probably good sized, so full dump may take some time. You could stare at the screen for an hour, if that floats your boat... Dump will display a progress report every 5 minutes. # umount -v /seconddisk Now create a script (Let's call it '/usr/local/sbin/dailybackup'): #!/bin/sh /sbin/e2fsck -C -T -a LABEL=SecondDisk mount -v -t ext3 LABEL=SecondDisk /seconddisk rsync -v -a -x -H --delete --delete-after --exclude=lost+found/ / /seconddisk umount -v /seconddisk # chmod +x /usr/local/sbin/dailybackup Now create a daily cron job: # crontab -e Add the line: 10 0 * * * /usr/local/sbin/dailybackup And you are all set.

In particular it does not specify (on the visible part) what folder is causing the problem. Nor is the error listed with other dovecot information in /var/log/messages . Any suggestions/advice gratefully received. Replying to my own message since I forgot to add... Can you look at the debugging output for Kmail in ~/.xsession-errors, since much of the KDE debugging channels get logged here. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
Re: [CentOS] Make sshd log IP addresses, not hostnames
Hi, On Mon, Jun 22, 2009 at 15:21, Scott Mosemanscmose...@gmail.com wrote: Can I adjust the ssh daemon to log IP addresses instead of hostnames? You can disable all DNS lookups by adding this line to /etc/ssh/sshd_config: UseDNS no This will probably accomplish what you want. I assume this situation is feasible... * 10.10.10.10 attempts to ssh to the server * reverse dns resolves to somehost.domain.com * ssh daemon logs somehost.domain.com in messages * foward dns on somehost.domain.com resolves to 10.10.10.20 Thus it causes some of my scripts a problem if the DNS resolutions don't match. It would be nice if it could just log IP addresses only. I believe the OpenSSH server will only log and use domain names if the forward DNS matches the reverse DNS, otherwise it will probably log the IP only (as if there was no reverse DNS for the IP) and maybe even log a warning that forward and reverse do not match. I haven't tested that recently, but that is how I would expect sshd to work... HTH, Filipe ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
Re: [CentOS] Make sshd log IP addresses, not hostnames
Indeed, that does log only the IP address. I could have sworn that I already played with that config option, but apparently I did not.

The obvious way is that someone running mostly Centos can duplicate their problem on a supported RHEL machine if other approaches fail because of the degree of compatibility. I'm not sure if you'd want to come out and say that officially, though. However, if RH has any sense at all, they'll realize that the only reason they have any customers left after the fedora split other than a few companies that can afford to license every machine is because Centos lets them do this. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

And there are different levels of 'commercial support'. One option is indeed RedHat itself. For some companies / organizations RedHat's level of support is too costly (for some definitions of 'cost' -- not always a pure monetary issue in some cases). Many 'mid sized' companies / organizations have an in-house IT staff, who are capable of dealing with day-to-day management and are also capable of getting outside support via newsgroups, E-Mail lists, and Wikis. *Some* smaller companies / organizations might prefer a 'local' personal support structure, rather than support from an office in NC or some equally distant location. *I* suspect that many of these smaller companies / organizations might prefer to go with CentOS if they knew there was a local support person that they could put on a retainer contract. Yes, this probably does mean taking some business away from RedHat, but it is probably business RedHat might prefer to farm out anyway, since getting daily calls from Middle Of Nowhereville about 'trivial' issues probably costs RedHat more than they make on the lowest level of support. rday -- Robert P.

Re: [CentOS] link to commercial support page isn't really helpful
I think the response from Geoff below is excellent. Its honest, to the point, and understandable. On Mon, Jun 22, 2009 at 4:15 AM, Geoff Galitzge...@galitz.org wrote: I (amicably) object to the currently unavailable phrase. As has been mentioned support is available. I would suggest the following change: Currently the Centos Project cannot endorse any specific support offering and does not directly offer commercial support. Support is available from third party consultants and firms. Volunteer support is available via IRC (channel #centos), Centos mailing lists and the Centos forums. - I would avoid making any promises like we are working on a support program or working on an endorsement program simply because there is no telling when such a program would get rolled out. Keeping people waiting around for a long time is not so good for the Centos image. FWIW, I think we should lighten up on the original poster. He asked a simple question, he got an answer.
