[CentOS] Dealing with backscatter

2009-07-27 Thread Matt Arnilo S. Baluyos (Mailing Lists)
Hi all,

I've had to deal with a sudden surge of backscatter email lately.

Would anyone be able to suggest to solutions that worked for them
regarding this problem?

We are using Scalix 11 as our email platform. It uses Sendmail MTA for
those who may not be familiar.

Thanks,
Matt

453sync_speed_min
454sync_speed_max
455  This are similar to /proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_{min,max}
456  however they only apply to the particular array.
457  If no value has been written to these, of if the word 'system'
458  is written, then the system-wide value is used.  If a value,
459  in kibibytes-per-second is written, then it is used.
460  When the files are read, they show the currently active value
461  followed by "(local)" or "(system)" depending on whether it is
462  a locally set or system-wide value.

Much higher end systems probably aren't running software
raid in any case. I can't imagine using it myself for more
than a few disks, the inconvenience alone of having to worry
about keeping boot records intact or manually re-syncing
is enough to keep me on hardware raid, which hasn't really
ever let me down over several hundred controllers over the
past many years(I only use good controllers though).

[CentOS] mdadm RAID sync speed limitation?

2009-07-27 Thread Tim Nelson
While creating some arrays this evening, I noticed this line my dmesg:

md: using maximum available idle IO bandwidth (but not more than 20 KB/sec) 
for reconstruction.

Why is there a 200MBps limitation on the mdadm sync speed? It certainly isn't a 
concern for my particular systems (15k U320 SCSI) but I can imagine there are 
much higher end systems that actually could sync at a rate equal to or higher 
than the limit. Is this limit arbitrary? Based on detected system specs? 
Limitation of mdadm itself?

Just curious.

[CentOS] perl woes - perl-file-Temp conflict

2009-07-27 Thread Rob Kampen

Hi all, everytime I play with perl I end up falling on my face.
Yesterday, new perl modules available from rf (my chosen repo for perl, 
perl is excluded from my CentOS-Base), however it did not like an 
already installed perl-File-Temp, so not recalling it was necessary for 
my mail system I removed it and allowed the updates.
Then when I discovered my mail system no longer working (amavisd 
installed as per centos wiki) I tried to re-install - finally using 
--force - but now I have two Temp.pm files and the one I need is not found.
Why is it that perl has this really messy structure and allows multiple 
files / methods of the same name, and thus tripping up the unsuspecting.
Now I'm lost as to how to unwind and remove the necessary files from 
yesterdays update so I can reinstall perl-File-Temp?

the error message :-

Right - that's kind of the point. If you want to customize your Apache  
build, then the spec file modification route is the way to go, though  
you should really know what you're doing and why. If all you want to  
do is build a non-CentOS/upstream-supplied Apache module, then  
building an rpm for it is the best way. Failing that, you can use  
Apache's built-in tool for DSO building: apxs, which is part of the  
httpd-devel package. Of course, if you want to build everything from  
source, this may not be the optimum distro for you and you may wish to  
explore Gentoo...;)

[CentOS] Help with Intel Driver

2009-07-27 Thread Clint Dilks

Hi People

I have a machine with a  Intel Corporation 82Q35 Express Integrated
Graphics Controller

lspci

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82Q35 Express
Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)


The xorg.conf is configured to use the "intel' driver and I need to
enable 3D Support with DRI.So my question is, Is this possible with
the latest updates in CentOS 5 ?

At first I believed that this would just involve enabling DRI so I added
two sections to the xorg.conf

Section "Module"
Load "glx"
Load "dri"
EndSection

Section "DRI"
Mode 0666
EndSection

Upon restarting X glx and dri appear to load but running the command
glxinfo  | grep rendering

I still get direct rendering: No.

Some initial research suggests that the "intel' driver may be 2D only?
and that building a newer version of the driver from the Intel site is
not a straight forward thing to do.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get the functionality I
need going?  Or should I just look at replacing this card with something
from Nvidia ?

Thank you for any  insite you can offer.

Ever tried moving the install-location to /usr/local by changing the  
spec-file?

Last time I looked, there was so much hard-coded stuff in the spec- 
file that it was almost impossible to change.

Right.  The other option, if there is some specific thing you need
changed is to grab the source RPM and tweek the .spec file and include
your own patch(es).  Keep the patch(es), along with a patch file for the
.spec file someplace, so you can patch future versions.  But Ian is

Further looking at both my mail servers makes me even more confused.
One is i686 the other x64_86. The one having problems is the i686. 
They both have rpmforge set up for perl and both up to date.

the x64_86 does not have nor apparently need perl-File-Temp.
both have nearly identical conf files for amavisd (domains differ)
so why does the i686 machine look for Temp.pm with a seek function but 
the 64bit doesn't?

I'm not overly familiar with broadcom wireless (always tried to avoid 
it), but we can probably package wl.ko as a kABI-tracking kmod for el5 
over at ELRepo.org if you're interested? This would remove the need to 
recompile the driver from source for every kernel update, not to mention 
provide a user friendly RPM package for yum.

Also, does this driver require firmware, and if so where does one obtain 
that?

If you compile your own apache, you lose *ALL* of the patches that
upstream has put in place, and you break the rpm-listed definition of
what the apache package is.  Doesn't sound like a big deal now, right?
Wait until later... you'll definitely regret it... EPEL or apxs would be
the way to go for this...

It's been a little while since I compiled any apache modules but
last time I tried it on CentOS, provided the devel packages were

If you stick with the rpm-based Apache installation, it might be as
simple as:

yum install httpd-devel
apxs -cia mod_security.c

as listed on:
http://www.modsecurity.org/documentation/modsecurity-apache/1.9.3/modsecurity-manual.html#02-installation

Of course, you could also grab the RPMS from EPEL...

That'll be in the SPEC file from the source rpm... also, I believe that
be default, you don't get the server-info page unless you're coming in
from localhost.

Oh.. and another option:

I believe that page is served up as an 'ErrorDocument' rather
than a documentroot.

You can download the SRPM from one of the mirrors, I usually just
browse to the mirror directly instead of using yum out of habbit

Option 1 doesn't work on a new CentOS install of the web server.

I did have to use http://localhost to get the standard CentOS web page up.  I 
went through the /var/www/html directory, and there was nothing there.  So I 
don't know where they put them.

Adding the "server-info" to the URL gives me 404.

There are a couple approaches that may work:

1)
Browse to http://your.server.name/server-info

If you haven't disabled it, it will show the server configuration.

2) Grab the sources and check it directly:

yumdownloader --source httpd
rpm -ivh http-.src.rpm

cd /YOURRPMBUILDDIR/SPECS

look at the httpd.spec file in the configure section

Further looking at both my mail servers makes me even more confused.
One is i686 the other x64_86. The one having problems is the i686. They 
both have rpmforge set up for perl and both up to date.

the x64_86 does not have nor apparently need perl-File-Temp.
both have nearly identical conf files for amavisd (domains differ)
so why does the i686 machine look for Temp.pm with a seek function but 
the 64bit doesn't?

Why would you want to do that? CentOS 5.3 already ships Apache 2.2
packaged as an RPM.

I think you mean ModSecurity (http://www.modsecurity.org/), right?

If that's the case, the latest version mod_security-2.5.9 is available
from EPEL.

Look what's in /usr/share/man/man3/

See if there are any files or directories in there with spaces
in them that start with a lower case s ?

Just a guess..

I disable makewhatis on my systems, I don't use the database, and
I don't need the I/O bogging down on my VMs when it runs(I also
disable it on physical systems for consistency)

If I recall, but I'll look back, I quoted the exact message output from 
the run of cron.weekly, but here it is again::

# ./makewhatis.cron
cat: /usr/share/man/man3/s: No such file or directory
Read file error: /usr/share/man/man3/s No such file or directory
cat: Net::DNS: No such file or directory
Read file error: Net::DNS No such file or directory

And the other cron job in that subdir is: 0anacron.

cat 0anacron
#!/bin/sh
# anacron's script
# This script updates anacron time stamps. It is called through 
run-parts either by anacron itself or by cron
#  The scrips is called "0anacron" to assure that is will be executed # 
_before_ all other scripts. 
#  Don't run anacron if this script is called by anacron.
if [ ! -e /var/run/anacron.pid]; then
anacron -u cron.weekly.
fi

The error message is logged within the daily log file, but of course, 
only once a week.  Two problems: Net::DNS IS installed, and what the 
hell is the "s".  Try googling for "s" or even the error message 
zilch for me.  As I mentioned earlier, I know of no other effects this 
failure has, but knowing something has run amok does not make happy.

Ok.. maybe have fixed it on my own.  Under the man page for makewhatis, 
there are some options that can be passed.  The server had an "s" and my 
desktop has a "w" as the option.  I changed them to opposites, so if one 
works and the desktop gives the same error message, then I guess the 
problem is solved.  we'll see...

I believe it is possible to set up SGE without any NFS at all. On the
other hand, you will have to handle the distribution of the scripts
and programs you want to run on your grid anyway, so you will probably
need NFS set up for that...

Have a look at GXP, it seems to be exactly what you are looking for:
http://www.logos.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/gxp/index.php?FrontPage

You can also look at SQS, it seems to be very simple:
http://sqs.sourceforge.net/

GXP looks more powerful, though.

As another post suggested, there is Torque, which is similar to SGE
and probably has similar requirements.

And there is also Condor, which does not need NFS but is more complex
(does checkpoints, etc.):
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/

Then there are the commercial ones, of which Platform LSF seems to be
the more complete one, but as you are looking for something simple, I
recommend you look at the above first.

Hi,

have a look at Torque
(http://www.clusterresources.com/products/torque-resource-manager.php)

It might be a bit overkill, but it might also suit your needs :)

Yes, AHCI support requires both hardware and BIOS to support it. Even if 
the hardware supports it, if the vendor has chosen not to implement it 
in the BIOS then there's nothing you can do. Sounds like a BIOS update 
will add AHCI support for you.

I need to serialize computing job requests for two different multicore
machines, and in some near future, for a cluster. I have worked with
SGE but it requires NFS and other administrative steps, plus it seems
a bit overkill for my needs. I guess some simpler queue managing

Check to see if there's a BIOS update on HP's site.  I had some DL160s 
with an old BIOS with no option for AHCI mode.  After upgrading to the 
most recent BIOS, the option was there.

I just tried adding 'irqpoll' and this seems to have cured things -- the
DVD Burner is detected!  I'm guessing it is a case of broken firmware
somewhere (which seems to be the purpose of the irqpoll parameter).

Sometimes this can happen if the file has Windows-style EOLs and the
interpreter /bin/sh is translated as /bin/sh^M
Indeed, on a Centos 5 here, the sh is in /bin/sh so the script
probably should have worked.

Check if that is the case. If so, running dos2unix against the shell
script might solve the problem.

It does not work along with RPM very well... if you mix CPAN with RPM
(and you can't avoid RPM considering you need the OS Perl that comes
in RPM) a future update of the RPMs might break CPAN-installed
packages, or might even break the whole Perl install.

If you need Perl modules, I recommend you look into RPMforge, their
collection of RPM-packaged Perl modules is great, and if there is
anything else you need that is not there you may request it on their
mailing list.

We run Postfix + Cyrus and a some of our users are often "over quota".
Using virtual alias maps in postfix for aliases, leads to the following
effect: the mail is "splitted" by postfix and then requeued for a evety
recipient of the alias (not the alias itself). If submission fails (e.g.
"over quota"), then the mail stays in the queue and submission is
retried regularly.
As the mail was already splitted before the submission attempt to the
mailbox, only the mail for the mailbox that's failing is kept in the
queue.

Hope that helps...

Regards,
Andreas

Hello Sam:
I can't answer the parent question, but I do use CPAN modules
quite often.  The main difference is that I always convert them to RPM
first using the cpan2rpm utility. It takes a few extra steps, but I've
found that it makes upgrades and troubleshooting a lot easier.

Kai,

Yes, I've been using Centos plenty long enough to pickup a few 
tid-bits of information that have been useful, but a lot of the info 
passed on the mailing list is either way over my head, or I have no use 
for it now or in the future.  As for the "exact problem" -- it's an 
error message, and I don't like seeing error messages when I have no 
clue where to even begin looking besides the source that is causing 
them.  As for learning from earlier questions, yes, as a matter of a 
fact, I do learn from them, and archive a LOT of threads that deal with 
things I've seen before or something I feel I might need/use later on.  
There's nothing wrong with being curious about error messages, I just 
don't like to see them as I don't know what else might be being 
affected.  As for the cpan, the modules were not available via any 
repository, hence cpan.  All of the modules I grabbbed were for one 
package and only one package that deals with my weather data and its 
software.  Ever heard of LDM or Gempak.. both required some modules 
before it would even install, and they were NOT available anywhere 
else.  This software does not get updated but once in a blue moon, and 
has nothing to do with Centos itself, other than being hosted on it.   
One last thing.. I don't appreciate one bit you taking jabs at me and my 
methods.  You don't know me, and know even less about how I used my 
computers.  I follow instructions that come with packages I install, not

Alan,

The package perl-Net-DNS is already installed and is up do date.  
I'm wondering if that command coming from cron.weekly about the "s" file 
has anything to do with it?  There does not seem to be any ill effects 
from the cron job, but it irritates me to see errors and not know why or 
how to fix stuff, especially when the keyword is "s" :(  Perhaps I 
should just remove that particular command from the cron.weekly and see 
what happens, or at least comment it out.

You could have probably run the script using:

[CentOS] potsfix keeping mail in queue on delivery error

2009-07-27 Thread Robert Grasso
Hello,

Our mail server is running CentOS 5.3. I configured postfix with maildrop as 
the MDA. I had to deal with a strange issue : a user
sent an email to an alias, which resolves into several internal addresses. One 
of these addresses had its mbox filled up (reached
the mailbox_size_limit); so maildrop reported a 0x19 error code to postfix, who 
kept the mail in its queue, and repeatedly resent
the email : thus every member of the alias list received many copies of this 
email, except of course the one with the filled mbox.

Is there a way to configure postfix so that it does not resend the email to the 
recipients who do not report any error ?

Regards

You could try booting with the boot command line option:

  pci=nomsi

and see if that helps

Thank you very much for this tip! It was one very obvious place where I
did not look yet.


Would it be necessary to still recompile it for the TCP_NODELAY and
such?

I am just making sure, because
http://www.nabble.com/Huge-latency-issue-with-8.2.6-td18947965.html
makes it seem unnecessary.

Why do the repositories provide both DRBD 8.0.x and 8.2.6?

Thank you all again,
Coert

There are no settings in BIOS for AHCI mode, it's only possible to 
choose between raid and sata controller mode, i have chosen sata mode.

I'm not sure for this particular model server, but normally this is a

[CentOS] Compile linux kernel problem

2009-07-27 Thread Hanmo
Hello   everyone,

I compiled the linux kernel  2.6.18.8 in CentOS 5.3,  but when make install,  
the system says:

WARNING: No module sata_nv found for kernel 2.6.18.8, continuing anyway
WARNING: No module sata_nv found for kernel 2.6.18.8, continuing anyway

Just if I installed RHEL 5 version's nforce driver, it still shows these 
warning message.  When reboot,  it cannot load the system.  The linux kernel 
package is downloaded from kernel.org directory.

I tried and google it,  but I could not find the answer,  does anyone can help 
me?

You have no Perl, but installed modules via CPAN? Digest that. What are 
you telling us?
And, btw, you didn't even tell what your actual problem is. Can you please 
work on the phrasing of your questions to this list? You seem to be very 
reluctant to learn from replies to your earlier questions.

You have been using an rpm-based Linux installation long enough to know 
that by yourself or to google it up by yourself.
