Re: [CentOS-es] Problemas MySql Socket UNIX - TCP
Gonzalo, espero que este paso a paso sirva: *Paso # 1: Ingresar a través de ssh *En primer lugar, entrar a través de SSH al servidor remoto de bases de datos MySQL* Paso # 2: Habilitar Networking *Una vez conectado necesitas editar el archivo de configuración my.cfg.

If it were a routing issue, it would have failed to build a TCP connection (the SYN-ACK would have failed to return). However, it is closed very soon after, during key exchange, so I would suggest you check your /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny. Check the contents of /etc/ssh/, in particular, is there anything in /etc/ssh/sshd_config that could be a problem? Was this a clean reinstall, or an upgrade over an existing system?

Larry Vaden wrote on 01/30/2011 08:41 PM: ... With apologies for replying to my own post, the final solution (possibly regarded as draconian and puerile by others) which seemed to work to return to a consistent state was to download Oracle R5U6 and invoke 'rpm -ivh' following some rpm which must be set aside in order to avoid can not coexist. (e.g., bind vs. bind97 et al). So, out of morbid curiosity, and because it seems to have been my post on the SL list you quoted that helped get you into this state, was anything other than the replacement process actually broken? It is completely unsurprising that the kernel RPMS failed to install over the like versions, but I would have expected things to work with the CentOS kernels on the SL/CentOS mixed system. The replacement process was only suggested as something for those really paranoid about not having all the packages from the same distro to try, and I certainly would not have endorsed throwing Oracle into the mix. For the record, if I really wanted to replace the kernels, my process would have been something like: 1. Boot from an older OldOS kernel. 2. Remove the newer OldOS kernel[s]. 3. Install the latest NewOS kernel with yum. 4. Reboot to the NewOS kernel. 5. Remove the remaining OldOS kernel, or perhaps better leave for a fallback. By the way, my initial post in the SL thread started: The procedure (untested by me) should be similar to the procedure on the CentOS Wiki for migration from RHEL to CentOS Caveat Emptor! :-) Will be interesting to see how you fare with your three-way hybrid when CentOS 5.6 hits the mirrors.

I would like to re-locate all users' $HOME directories to something like /export/home/$username without having a hassle/trouble. Initially, I've thought of just copying them to the new directory (under /export/home/xxx), but guessed it might trouble for the normal use (I'm pretty new to CentOS, although many experiences with Debian/Ubuntu). Is there any good tricks (or caveats) when moving users' home directory cleanly with CentOS? (I'm with CentOS 5.5 x86_64) For the sake of argument, I'm going to assume that your current /home and the new /export/home are on separate disks or partitions. That is, you need to make a full copy of the existing directories rather than just renaming them. The following instructions should all be done as root. 1. rsync -av --delete /home/ /export/home/ 2. Edit /etc/default/useradd so that HOME=/export/home 3. Run /usr/sbin/genhomedircon 4. Verify the change in /etc/selinux/SELINUXTYPE/contexts/files/file_contexts.homedirs 5. Make sure that /export/home has the right contect: semanage fcontext -a -t home_root_t /export/home 6. Run fixfiles to see if anything is amiss: /sbin/fixfiles check /export/home If something fixfile reports errors, use it to fix things: /sbin/fixfiles restore /export/home 7.

Actually, it was Karanbir's statement that led me to believe it would be possible to have a real choice ... As far as answering your question, other than BIND, the truth is I don't know. I certainly would not have endorsed throwing Oracle into the mix. There's an old saying that goes like make chicken salad with the chickens you've got. Will be interesting to see how you fare with your three-way hybrid when CentOS 5.6 hits the mirrors. Feel free to pen a stanza which I will run on the system to determine the actual DNA head count and thus whether it is a hybrid ... At the risk of irritating folks further with the great-grandmother of the situation, RH and downstreams need to get serious about BIND, et al. e.g. (and not the best one by far, just the one that led me down the path (yikes, www.yahoo is here in rural north Texas on a leaf node)), http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html-single/5.6_Technical_Notes/index.html#bind says, in part: * The host/dig/nslookup utilities queried only servers from resolv.conf. With this update, the utilities query the servers specified on command line instead of in resolv.conf and the issue is resolved. ( BZ#561299) AFAIK, that's the status of the clones at this time. Still unexplained is why 'host www.yahoo.com 208.67.220.220' and 'host www.yahoo.com 8.8.8.8' got completely different answers. kind regards/ldv ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Fair enough. I must admit to not caring as much about the Java stuff anyway, I was mainly collating a list of notices which might correspond.

Re: [CentOS] RHEL-6 vs. CentOS-5.5 (was: Static assignment of, SCSI device names?)
Les Mikesell wrote: On 1/30/11 1:37 PM, Chuck Munro wrote: Hello list members, My adventure into udev rules has taken an interesting turn. I did discover a stupid error in the way I was attempting to assign static disk device names on CentOS-5.5, so that's out of the way. But in the process of exploring, I installed a trial copy of RHEL-6 on the new machine to see if anything had changed (since I intend this box to run CentOS-6 anyway). Lots of differences, and it's obvious that RedHat does things a bit differently here and there. My focus has been on figuring out how best to solve my udev challenge, and I found that tools like 'scsi_id' and udev admin/test commands have changed. The udev rules themselves seem to be the same. Do any of the names under /dev/disk/* work for your static identifiers? You should be able to use them directly instead of using udev to map them to something else, making it more obvious what you are doing. And are these names the same under RHEL6? I was happy to see that device names (at least for SCSI disks) have not changed. The more I look into the whole problem the more I realize that I've overstated the difficulty, now that I know how to map out the hardware path for any given /dev/sdX I might need to replace. I've never dug as deeply into this before, mostly because I never could find the spare time. I'm happy with simply writing a little script which accepts a /dev/sdX device name argument and reformats the output of: 'udevadm info --query=path --name=/dev/sdX' to extract the hardware path. It's a bit cleaner than the current RHEL-5/CentOS-5 'udevinfo' command. Using the numeric path assumes knowledge of how the motherboard sockets are laid out and the order in which I/O controller channels are discovered, of course. It's then not difficult to trace a failed drive by attaching little tags to the SATA cables from the controller cards. The real key is to carefully label each SATA cable and its associated drive. Then the little mapping script can be used to identify the faulty drive which mdadm reports by its device name. It just occurred to me that whenever mdadm sends an email report, it can also run a script which groks out the path info and puts it in the email message. Problem solved :-) So even though I figured out how to add 'alias' symlink names to each disk drive, I'm not going to bother with it. It was a very useful learning experience, though.
