Re: [CentOS-es] Off-topic.
Gracias Eduardo, Voy a aportar el manual (tipo dummy) de como instalar Pykota (Software para la contabilización de impresiones) en CentOS 5/ RHEL 5 que no es nada trivial como si lo es en Debian/Ubuntu. El autor de Pykota no coloca algunos tips en la documentación que al no saberlos pasan la promesa de Jerome Alet (el autor) de que la instalación del Pykota es una brisa a un quebradero de cabeza que en la mayoria de los casos (No fue el mio ya que o lo hacia funcionar o me quedaba sin empleo) nos hace desistir de realizar la instalación de ese excelente software. Voy a escribirle a la persona que me relacionas en este correo. Saludos y gracias nuevamente. Carlos Restrepo M. Administrador de Sistemas Bogotá - Colombia.

I can see that xendomains gives an error: service xendomains start Starting auto Xen domains: fszeleNo handlers could be found for logger xend Error: Disk isn't accessible No handlers could be found for logger xend Error: Disk isn't accessible An error occured while creating domain fszele: Usage: xm create ConfigFile [options] [vars] Create a domain based on ConfigFile.

The value of PATH is a colon-separated directory list. -f=FILE, --defconfig=FILE Use the given Python configuration script.The configuration script is loaded after arguments have been processed. Each command-line option sets a configuration variable named after its long option name, and these variables are placed in the environment of the script before it is loaded.

The Scalix integration quit working upon an upgrade to KDE4 (don't really miss it that much), and if you do a large and long search, be sure to do a short one before you quit kmail, as it will redo the search to populate the 'Searches' folder *every time you start* and not tell you that is what it is doing; it just feels like it has hung, for however long the search may take (and my mail store is, uh, 8.3GB currently) ... At the KDE SC 4.6.x level, things are about as stable as they've ever been, once you get Akonadi and Nepomuk operable. But this is the primary reason I'm somewhat loathe to go back down to KDE 4.3.4 in EL 6; I've forgotten what was broken at that level, and I'm used to what is currently working in F14 which is partly why I'll periodically pop up and ask if anyone has done a KDE 4.6.x repo for EL6... I'm at the moment happy with 1.13.7 that ships with KDE SC 4.6.5.

Perhaps the most important point here is that the script kiddies and/or bots usually make sure the target string, 'login' in your example is *not* contained within a single packet.

I used to use fetchmail to pull it to an imap server that I managed and accessed from various clients and my phone via imap, but for an assortment of reasons I want to retire that server and recently have been accessing gmail directly through imap, the gmail phone app, and the web interface, and after configuring the options a bit the web interface seems to be winning. It now has a fuzzy concept of 'important' mail that it can display first, and its folder operations are conceptually more like tagging where 'inbox' is just another tag, although from imap they appear as typical folders.The normal thing to do with disposed mail is to 'archive' it which puts it out of sight, but it still appears in searches and threaded conversation view - and being google, they obviously have better search capability than you are going to find in your own mail client. For me, the conceptual differences are more than making up for what you lose in a web-based interface - and when you want you can always use a real client via imap as long as you don't subscribe to the massive 'all mail' folder that holds the archive. I don't do any pre-filtering or sorting since you can just archive everything and still be able to find it in a search, but the facility is there if you want it and the results appear the same via multiple imap clients, the phone app, or the web interface. And yes, I know it is all just a ploy to get you to stay logged in all the time in the browser so your google search queries are tied to your login as well as your IP, but they are really, really good at it... -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Yes, this is different from KVM where the VMs really are just normal processes on the host system and the host system itself isn't a VM. On a Xen system if you look at /etc/grub.conf you'll notice that it looks slightly different than on a non-virtualized system. Specifically you'll find the following line: kernel /xen.gz-2.6.18-164.el5 That's the actual hypervisor and really the host system and once started it will basically start dom0 and give it special privileges. So Dom0 and the DomU's all run on top of the actual hypervisor. It was only after I added more 32 gb to existing 32 gb i did realise the above issue.. Apparently dom0 has a 32G limit but that shouldn't be an issue unless you actually really require more than 32G specifically for dom0 and not the VMs. anyway I will try to restrict my dom0 to 1 GB ... and check it out. Remember that the problems with the dynamic memory management are most likely fixed nowadays so the limitation is not strictly necessary. But then 1G will probably be more than enough for dom0 so it doesn't really hurt either. Still today you should dedicate a fixed amount of memory for dom0! say, 1GB, or so.

I'm currently juggling servers to try and get a free machine to test KVM on Centos 6, but i have recently found, with another RHEL clone I'm testing, that if you do not set up the LogVol with virsh or i suppose virt-manager you will have issues getting the guest machines to run. I am using virt-manager to set up the vms If you look at chapter 26.1.4.1 26.1.4.2 of the Red Hat Visualization Guide, for RHEL6, it explains how to use fdisk to create an partition for the Logical Volume, set it to a Linux LVM type and create the storage pool for the KVM guests (page 217 218). I am using that guide and I thank you for the specific reference. Nonetheless, I had the same problems when I used fdisk. On my current RHEL clone test system, to create the VolGroup / Storage pool i used the virsh commands on pages 222 223 of the Red Hat Visualization Guide (which were similar to the following): # virsh pool-define-as guest_images_lvm logical - - /dev/cciss/c0d0p3 libvirt_lvm /dev/libvirt_lvm # virsh pool-build VolGroupGuests # virsh pool-start guest_images_lvm # virsh pool-autostart guest_images_lvm # virsh pool-list --all Name State Autostart - guest_images_lvm active yes To create the actual logical volume for the virtual machine I used the following command: # virsh --connect qemu:///system vol-create-as guest_images_lvm volume1 20G I don't remember formatting a file system prior to installing the KVM guest, but new i am new to KVM and I'm experimenting as well. jk I believe that the main problem I experienced was due to a change in the behaviour of virt-manager from 5.6 to 6.0. A change that I consider a defect and have reported as Bug 734529. Essentially, the parted error messages are meaningless insofar as the new lv is indeed properly formatted and found and mounted as is shown in the output of parted -l Model: Linux device-mapper (linear) (dm) Disk /dev/mapper/vg_inet02-lv_guest01: 129GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: loop Number Start EndSize File system Flags 1 0.00B 129GB 129GB ext4 I have no idea what is causing the errors to be reported by parted but it evidently has no impact on the result. However, the behaviour of virtual machine manager has changed so that it no longer permits the operator to specific an alternate location and image file name, unless that file already exists. What happens is that if one chooses to navigate to an alternate location, say /var/vms/lv_guest_01, in the file browser; and if that location has no content, then the file browser enters an indefinite wait state which can only be ended by navigating to somewhere else in the file system that has content. In 5.6, one could navigate to an empty directory and then supply a new file name which would be used to hold the new image. In 6.0 one must first create that file name in the desired location and only then can the virtual machine manager use it to save the new image because only then can it be selected in the file browser. Otherwise, one has to enter the host's storage options and add storage volumes there. This appears at first blush to give equivalent functionality to the old behaviour but it is far from being obvious to the user. It was the combination of the parted errors and encountering the unexpected behaviour of the virtual machine manager that had me confused. I inferred that the second issue was consequential to the first when in fact the first had no effect and neither had anything to do with the other. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

An empty log may give you a nice feeling of security, but it is false... A lot of work, but very little if any gain. Onzin. An empty log never ever gives me a sense of security because the first thing I am thinking is why is the log empty. Sensitive applications have a self-generated log stored away from the conventional logs and regularly perused. My logic to is seal-off as many potential accesses as possible. Your logic seems to be do not bother because the successful attack will be unexpected. Ik ben zeker niet eens met jouw. I certainly disagree with that philosophy.
