Re: [CentOS-es] Problemas de actualización
Talvez a ninguno en la lista nos ha pasado tu problema específico pero no creas que no tiene solución: Muchas veces el problema que surge nuevo para uno puede que ya le haya sucedido a otros y nunca está demás consultar en un buscador como google. Mi sugerencia es que si por ejemplo pones no se ha encontrado ningún perfil para el usuario root en el buscador, te saldrán algunos enlaces que si los sigues puede que encuentres después de ir venciendo las dificultades esa solución que necesitas. Mira yo lo he echo y he aquí uno de esos enlaces. http://www.alcancelibre.org/forum/viewtopic.php?showtopic=3047 Cuando soluciones primero éste inconveniente, continúa con los que siguen apareciendo de idéntica manera y también prueba a intentar detener algún demonio (así es como se dice en Linux a un tipo especial de proceso informático no interactivo) ese dropboxd por ejemplo. Estamos suscritos a la lista pero eso no quiere decir que siempre va ha estar aquí la solución, en algunos casos incluso seremos nosotros mismos con la ayuda de nuestro intelecto el que nos lleve a una solución. No te olvides de documentar lo que vas haciendo para que des marcha atrás en caso de ser necesario o para compartirlo aquí y juntos todos lleguemos a un final feliz. From: luisillo...@hotmail.com To: centos-es@centos.org Date: Tue, 27 Mar 2012 18:01:24 + Subject: [CentOS-es] Problemas de actualización Muy buenos días. Hace unos días envié un correo explicando el problema que tuve con un servidor CentOS a la hora de instalar las actualizaciones que me solicito y me respondieron que no hay marcha atrás con esas actualizaciones. También me solicitaron que diera mas detalles del error que me manda así que les explico mas a fondo cual es mi problema soy novato en utilizar Centos así que no previne los problemas que me podía generar. Hace unos días se me encomendó revisar el reloj checador de la empresa en la que estoy realizando mis estadías lo cual esta montado en un servidor Centos que me dijeron que era la versión 5.3 lo cual ahora me aparece con la versión 5.8 y como soy nuevo manipulando este SO por lo tanto me pidió que instalara actualizaciones porque tenia mucho tiempo de estar desconectado, acepte las actualizaciones para que se instalaran pero a la hora de reiniciarse el servidor, parece que carga bien el SO pero a la hora de que siga la pantalla para logearme como root solo se queda en negro y solo se ve el puntero como cargando pero el Disco Duro no se ve que trabaje. he intentado iniciar con el Single User (1) y Emergency esto es lo que he echo; Oprimo cualquier tecla para que me envie al GNU GRUB version 0.97. este es es con el que arranca normalmente Centos(2.6.18-308.1.1.e5) tecleo la letra a para editarlo con single user; grub append ro root=/dev/volGroup 00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet single user enter y b para iniciarlo. ya en la otra imagen me aparece sh-3.2# y lo inicio con startx y me aparece marcando me un error que dice asi; no se ha encontrado ningún perfil para el usuario root. /usr/bin/gnom-session:error while loading share libreries:libdbus-1.so3:cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory También he intentado cambiar la contraseña de root en el kernel editandolo con 1, la reinicio y me marca el mismo error de usuario root. Al iniciar normalmente el SO y se carga, me marca error en estos dos parámetros; iniciando:/usr/bin/gnom-session:error while loading share libreries:libdbus-1.so3:cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory [fallo] iniciando dropboxd: unconfigured: /etc/dropbox [fallo]. Espero que ahora si me haya explicado mejor y también que sea una cosa sencilla que pueda repara fácilmente porque me están presionando con la reparación. He querido restaurarlo con el DVD de instalación Centos 5.8 pero me detengo hasta no recibir una buena accesoria de Uds y que me recomiende que es la mejor solución. Les agradezco por leer mi correo y pues esperando una respuesta entendible de ejecutar. Atte.

Re: [CentOS-es] Error al montar directorio remoto NFS: mount.nfs: requested NFS version or transport protocol is not supported
hola, creo que tendrías que fijarte que versión de NFS tiene activado el filer, ya que muchas veces el cliente NFS tiene una versión de NFS anterior a la del filer y el servidor (que creo por defecto activa la más alta) no tiene activada esa versión de nfs, por lo tanto no puede montar los recursos de netapp pues entre las versiones de NFS cliente y server no se entienden. eso te lo puede decir el administrador del filer, y luego podrás activar la versión de NFS que corresponda para tomar el recurso. también deberías fijarte si el server tiene a tu cliente en la lista como permitido para tomar los recursos de NFS que comparte. espero te sirva, comentanos como fue.

On 03/28/2012 09:38 PM, Timo Neuvonen wrote: Only console users (local users) are allowed to do that. It's configured using pam (I use Centos5.8 so forgive me if this is not the same for CentOS6). I tried to change settings in /etc/pam.d/ and that indeed works: /etc/pam.d/poweroff /etc/pam.d/reboot /etc/pam.d/halt I added as a second line : auth sufficient pam_rootok.so # prevent normal users to reboot auth required pam_deny.so But still the user locally logged on to the machine (gnome session) can switch it off. So I think I also missed something. I can't test it right now, but reading 'man pam.d' made me wonder if 'required' in the 'auth required pam_deny.so' in the example above should be replaced with 'requisite'. Both methods should work. With requisite the following checks are not done anymore (it fails right away). But even if the other tests succeed (after a failing required) the final judgement is still fail. It a way not to tell the reason authentication fails. This makes it a little bit more difficult for an attacker. Note that shutdown is not in the list of pam enabled applications. So a user cannot poweroff, but he can still shutdown :-( I read that /etc/shutdown.allow controls shutdown but I don't understand what the gnome desktop actually calls. Apparently it is not poweroff/reboot/halt. Anyone knows how to properly prevent any non root user (console and remote) for powering off a machine? I need this only for desktop users that switch of their machine by accident. The machine is used as part of a compute grid as well.

If you want the latest packages on your machine, then you want Fedora and not CentOS. Well... I can see it. We had to build a newer package for 5.x, because we *had* to have PIV-II/pkcs11 support. That's *just* come in with 6.2, to be able to log in with a smart card. Even so, there's a bug/enhancement (and my manager has this in w/ Redhat, and it's been escalated) needed, that it insists on showing the userlist of recent logins. And this can be the case ... they will roll back security items, but there will be some new functionality that is not rolled back. If you really need some new function, then yes, a rebuild is in order. That entails all the things I outlined above though ... figuring out what else you need to build first to use as a BuildRequires, figure out what you have to build after because they depend on the built Share libraries of the package (or one they depend on one of your Newer BuildRequires that you needed).

[CentOS] RAID-10 vs Nested (RAID-0 on 2x RAID-1s)
Greetings- I'm about to embark on a new installation of Centos 6 x64 on 4x SATA HDDs. The plan is to use RAID-10 as a nice combo between data security (RAID1) and speed (RAID0). However, I'm finding either a lack of raw information on the topic, or I'm having a mental issue preventing the osmosis of the implementation into my brain. Option #1: My understanding of RAID10 using 4 drives (now known as a,b,c,d) is: a+b - RAID1 (md0) c+d - RAID1 (md1) md0+md1 - RAID0 (md3) This is of course simplified as /boot needs to be on RAID1 (last I checked Grub couldn't boot from anything other than RAID1). Option #2: I've also found the kernel provides a direct method of RAID10 without the manual assignment of the arrays as noted above. I performed a test installation, selecting RAID10 as the type in the installer, and it works but I'm just not seeing the distinction between what disks/partitions are actually the mirror or stripe portion of the array. Details: [root@c6r10tester ~]# mdadm --detail /dev/md1 /dev/md1: Version : 1.1 Creation Time : Thu Mar 29 16:14:17 2012 Raid Level : raid10 Array Size : 36695040 (35.00 GiB 37.58 GB) Used Dev Size : 18347520 (17.50 GiB 18.79 GB) Raid Devices : 4 Total Devices : 4 Persistence : Superblock is persistent Intent Bitmap : Internal Update Time : Thu Mar 29 16:28:49 2012 State : active Active Devices : 4 Working Devices : 4 Failed Devices : 0 Spare Devices : 0 Layout : near=2 Chunk Size : 512K Name : c6r10tester:1 (local to host c6r10tester) UUID : be38645d:4d3c8b77:0f6df687:08016c6a Events : 51 Number Major Minor RaidDevice State 0 830 active sync /dev/sda3 1 8 191 active sync /dev/sdb3 2 8 352 active sync /dev/sdc3 3 8 513 active sync /dev/sdd3 Am I overthinking this?

[CentOS] my spammer list
Hello, Thanks to some nice people on here and other forums I have pretty much finalized my whole mail system on centos 6.x. With all the checks, greylisting, dev/null of any 8+ spam level SA, I still get a few mails. It seems like everytime I enable a new protectant, the mail stops spamming for a few hours...then the spammers decide I am worthy of using better methods against me..and more come. LOL. I am down to just 10-15 a day. Anything that gets through all that I set up now goes to a spammers list that I add to the access file of postfix. http://bobhoffman.com/spammers.html that is the link to my list. I am trying to sort them out into political, real estate, bulk spammers, etc. The worst part is the bulk emailers are not on any black list. It is very hard to find their mail MX until they actually send you one. Many will be blocked, then a new alternate of theirs comes through. I could not find a list of bulk commercial spammers so I thought I would start one. As I progress it will become more defined, but right now a big list with some categories after it. Hope it helps. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] Linux on touch screen device
I have poked around in google and have seen a number of youtube videos, but my question is whether anyone really has linux running on any kind of tablet or tablet PC device in such a way that the touch screen can be used productively and it won't take a month to get it running? Initially the two applications that are of most interest to me would be a good web browser (maybe chromium) and thunderbird. I would also like to have a decent on screen keyboard which could be used to ssh to servers in an emergency.

Re: [CentOS] RAID-10 vs Nested (RAID-0 on 2x RAID-1s)

Does the kernel handle the mirror/stripe configuration under the hood, simply presenting me with a magical RAID10 array? Or, is this something different and I really should be performing the RAID creation manually as noted in option #1? I used to do something very similar to option 1, save that I used LVM to do the striping. I now use the md raid10 array. Rebuilds are dramatically faster under the 'just let md handle the raid10' option. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

The way that I finally got rid of all the residual spam that makes it through greylisting, SPF, spamassassin, clamav is to handout unique mail addresses and use black/whitelists. So for example if I assign an email address for incoming mail from a mailing list and then setup a whitelist entry that only allows that address to receive email from the mailservers that serve that mailing list and then blacklist all other incoming mail to that address it is very effective. With a decent whitelist/blacklist tool it's fairly easy to implement. I used to get literally hundreds of spams a day and now I probably average about 2 per week. You can also get on the spamassassin mailing list and add more plugins and work on tuning the spamassassin config. You can also play with sa-learn. For me though the black/whitelisting works quite well. Nataraj ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Usually spam dev/null them but decided to disable spam assassin and go after a nice list. Only got two mails in the last 12 hours, so it is cool. I get lots of political and real estate spammers due to the jobs I have had and my mail being on their lists...a list you can never get off.

Re: [CentOS] Linux on touch screen device

Initially the two applications that are of most interest to me would be a good web browser (maybe chromium) and thunderbird. I would also like to have a decent on screen keyboard which could be used to ssh to servers in an emergency. I've seen instructions for booting linux on various devices, but many people doing this are using keyboards and not touchscreens. Do applications like thunderbird have to be modified in order to work well with a touch screen or is just getting a working driver for the touchpad sufficient?

Also the newest Asus transformer prime (arm) which I think is about 2 months away sounds interesting. Lots of people do this and lots of (most?) commercial tablet/smartphone systems are based on Linux or a close cousin (Android and iOS come to mind...). As far as non-commercial DIY tablet distros, there are distros and special interest groups within larger distros that focus on this type of deployment. But none of them are CentOS, so I'm not sure why you pinged this mailinglist -- though I think you'd probably find that CentOS installs just fine in most cases, just remember to build whatever graphcs driver you need or your experience might not be good. Go ask over at Fedora, Ubuntu and maybe Mint. Also check out MeeGo and whatnot. As a side note, there is nothing magical about a touchscreen. Touchscreens are just pointing devices like mice and touchpads as far as Linux is concerned, but in this case it is a touchpad that you can see through to a screen on the other side (there is a special case of location logic, of course, so the pointer doesn't continue from last location, but this is a normal case handled by X). So nothing special happens in an application to make it work with a touchscreen because a touchscreen is just creating mouse events the same way your normal mouse would do. The only problem with touchscreens is that small icons are smaller than your finger (well, mine anyway) and so you have to make the desktop a little cartoony to make things work right. Gnome Shell in Fedora is actually not too bad to use with a touchscreen, though it sucks horribly with a mouse IMO, and KDE with large widgets is pretty easy as well. -IY ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
