Re: [CentOS] Current RHEL fragmentation landscape

2023-07-21 Thread Ian B
Fwiw we pay for Google Workspace. I think there is a pricing issue though,
but I guess changing it would affect their income from their bigger
customers.

We just have 5 servers, and don't want any personal support. We'd be fine
to pay what we'd consider a reasonable fee I think. I contacted Redhat to
ask about their licensing and if we could fit somehow into it (i.e the
personal support & 16 machine type license), but they could never give us a
straight answer, so the implication was we couldn't be certain we weren't
breaking any t I also thought maybe they'd make an offer or something,
but never did. The costs are just too high for some people for what they
are offering.

The problem now, is what I think people are happy to pay for is trust,
which is gone. If we'd have known in advance, we'd have made other choices.

Re: [CentOS] How will fragmentation help Red Hat

2023-07-13 Thread Ian B
Tom nailed it for me, similar boat. We moved to Rocky as a holding position
with their LTS, but it just doesn't make sense any more to use a Redhat
base with any new server.

The trust I think has gone since the Centos rug pull, and that's important.
I do think we'll see some changes to come (I can't work out if Suse forking
RH is interesting or not), but I think most people want stability with
security.

I would like to say a genuine thanks to all those who have helped

It's possible but can be a lot of work if you're not familiar with the 
software.


A simpler option is to save all your configured files in a version control
system (git, subverion, mercury for example). That keeps a history of all
the customizations you made and also makes it easy to revert a change
that causes problems.  There are open source tools to help (etckeeper is

Yes but that's the old version - 5.13.4.711 not the latest 5.13.7.683.

You can download and install 5.13.7.683 but it won't start:

I'm trying to figure out how to assign a "static" address that 
automatically sets the prefix to what the ISP delegates. It seemed like 
the token system would accomplish that, but reading the kernel source 
code, I've discovered that tokens only work with a /64 delegation. My 
ISP offers a /60, so the token is ignored and I get a random address, 
instead.


Is there some way to use prefix delegation to pick a /64 from the /60 
and loop it back onto the same interface to make it use the token? Or is 
this /64 restriction actually a kernel bug?


So right now, you're assigning a /60 address to your LAN interface?  If
so, you almost certainly shouldn't do that.  Instead, you should (as you
say) pick a /64 from within the delegated /60 and use that subnet.  (The
other /64 subnets within the /60 can be used for other VLANs.)

The details of doing this are going to be dependent on what software
you're using to manage the network - NetworkManager, ISC DHCP client,
etc.

Something interesting happens when there's change. People get involved in a
different way, and it can actually be positive.

Centos for me is an example of something that many people took for granted
(including myself). Now there's change and the start of things like Rocky,
I think a lot of people learn something new with a new distro, and feel
like they can get involved, people learn again what it takes, there's a new
energy. Personally I hope Centos, Rocky all thrive.

My main negative is the shortening of end of life, it's caught me out.
That's a big no-no in this world as far as I'm concerned. It's all been
said already though.

Sony agrees with you.


is there any wireless between your server and the TV client ?


No.  Everything is 1 Gbps wired, except for the interface in the TV
itself.  Theoretically, the wireless in the TV is actually faster ...
until it isn't.


next largest file in 'recent' is The Irishman, also MP4 x.265 1080p, no
subtitles, english-only 5.1 AAC audio, 4.1GB for 3:29 long, thats only
335kByte/sec, or about 3Mbit/sec,  heck you could play that on 10baseT


As an example, I have a 59GiB 4K video, which includes multiple audio
and subtitle streams, which is approximately 115 minutes long.  That
results in a *mean* bitrate of about 73.5 Mbps.ls

If I remove the audio and subtitle streams for languages that I don't
care about, I can reduce the file to 54GiB, a mean bitrate of 66.4 Mbps.

Don't try playing those on your 10baseT network!

So the question is whether the *peak* bitrate required to play that
file, including all the protocol and application overhead, exceeds the
capabilities of the TV's interface.  Just watching iftop, I've seen the
reported bitrate from the "router" to the TV exceed 75 Mbps when playing
the smaller file.  Is that the highest it gets?  I don't know, because I
don't have the patience to watch iftop for almost 2 hours.

Thus my original question.  I'm looking for something that can tell me
the *peak* bitrate to a particular host over the time that the video is
playing.  Something that could graph it would also be nice; I would
expect to see the bitrate plateau at a high level if/when it saturates
the TV interface, likely correlated with the pauses that I'm seeing.

[CentOS] Monitoring network traffic to a host

2020-05-12 Thread Ian Pilcher

Background - I am having an issue with occassional pauses when streaming
high-bitrate media across my home network to my smart TV.  I *suspect*
that the root cause is the (incredibly lame) 100 Mbps Ethernet interface
in the TV.

In order to confirm that the peak bitrate really does max out the 100
Mbps connection, I'd like to monitor the communication between my NAS
and the TV.  The two devices are on separate VLANs, with routing
performed by a CentOS 7 system, so it should theoretically be relatively
simple to use an appropriate utility on the "router" to monitor and, if
possible, graph the network traffic going to the TV.

Ideally, I could run said utility for the entire time that the media
file is playing and then look at its pretty graph to check if/when the
bitrate hit 100 Mbps.  Being able to watch the pretty graph in real time
through a web interface would be nice as well, but is not required.

Is any such program included in CentOS 7 or EPEL 7?

The closest thing that I've found thus far is iftop (despite its lack of
pretty).  Unfortunately, it won't allow me to see the peak bitrate over
the whole period in which the media is playing.

Thanks for any suggestions!

If the file is installed by a package and is an executable you can find

[CentOS] Downgrade Mariadb 10.3 on centos 8 ?

2020-02-25 Thread Ian B
We've just got a new server running centos 8 and mariadb 10.3.17, so
there's no real data loss issues currently on that server. We've also got
some older servers running mysql 5.1.7 which can't be upgraded currently.

We can't connect to the old mysql servers using libmysqlclient (to be more
precise Perl using DBD::mysql which uses that to my understanding). We get
a 'handshake error', and digging about it suggests that it's mysql version
incompatibilities.

Really we need the new servers connecting to the old and vice versa.

So I'm wondering how I get around this. Is downgrading Mariadb on Centos 8
the only (or possible) route here ? If so, any idea how we can go about
this (I can't seem to find any information on what version would work
either)?

Happy to explore any other routes, other than changing the old servers
currently.

I maintain a local mirror for CentOS and we don't use delta rpms so
won't mind if they're dropped.  

(From what I've seen with Fedora, the benefits are minimal anyway.)

Where are the libgpg-error 1.13-1.el7.centos packages coming

The latest nvidia kmods from elrepo are built against the RHEL 7.6 
kernel so won't be usable until CentOS catches up.

In the meantime you could install the previous release:

   kmod-nvidia-390xx-390.87-1.el7_5.elrepo.x86_64.rpm

I agree and also use kickstart but sometimes, for a one-off install, I
find it easier to partition first with the CentOS 6 installer and quit
after the drives are partitioned.  CentOS 7 can then be installed onto
the existing partitions.

Re: [CentOS] HP laptops with CentOS 7?

I'm very happy with my Dell Precision 5520 "developer edition".  It
shipped with Ubuntu and runs Fedora pretty much flawlessly.  I haven't
tried CentOS, but Dell claims that RHEL support on their spec sheet, so
I would expect it to work well.

Dell also have the XPS 13 "developer edition" for those looking for a

I don't know but with the dependencies installed and the fix of

A couple of concerns:

  devilspie is no longer maintained; development moved to devilsipe2

The package you're missing is probably gnome-python2-libwnck.

On my desktop it gets a different error:

   pyGTK is not correctly installed, exiting.

Fixed by installing pygtk2-libglade.  That gets a new error which is
fixed by commenting out line 374 of /usr/bin/gdevilspie.

Yes, systemd-networkd does store its configuration in
/etc/systemd/network, but the directory isn't created by the RPM; you
need to create it yourself.

As noted, systemd-networkd is in the RHEL extras (or somesuch) repo, so
it isn't supported by Red Hat on RHEL.  It's basically just (minimally)
packaged.

Is it rejected because of the recipient address or the sender address? 
In your log message, I noticed this sender address:

   from=<r...@csusb.edu>

In case your mail server is rejecting it because of the sender address
you can do this: create a file /etc/postfix/sender_canonical with
contents like:

   root _valid_sender_address_

Then run:

   postmap /etc/postfix/sender_canonical

[CentOS] rsyslog and zipping up "rotated" files

2017-04-26 Thread Ian Diddams
I have a rsyslog config that suffixes the date to the filename and holds the 
log files in a non stabdard log directory based on its srver name (long story).


Example -
config includes:

...
$template 
mailLog,"/var/log/external/%fromhost%/maillog-%$YEAR%%$MONTH%%$DAY%.log"...
# Log all the mail messages in one place.mail.*                                 
                 -?mailLog...

so that I get over time

..
/var/log/external/server/maillog-20170424.log
/var/log/external/server/maillog-20170425.log
/var/log/external/server/maillog-20170426.log
etc.

Over time of course these build up, so i have a cronjob to trim any such logs 
okder than 30 days.  To also save on space I copmpress all the files except 
todays via a cronjobbed script.

so in fact I get 
...
/var/log/external/server/maillog-20170424.log.gz
/var/log/external/server/maillog-20170425.log.gz
/var/log/external/server/maillog-20170426.log


My questions are therefore...

- is there a way for rsyslog to compress these logs once a new log is created 
at midnight
- is theer a way for rsyslog to remove any logs older than 30 days?

I am of course aware that logrotate does this also, but for the purposes of m,y 
enquiry I am only interested in using rsyslog if at all possible.

I expect the removing of older, zipped logs via rsyslog isn;t available.  But 
the pssibility of zipping files would be of great interest.
cheers

Re: [CentOS] enlarging partition and its filesystem

2016-05-18 Thread Ian Brown
Hi Fred,
That would depend on what the underlying device is using.
Do you know if you are using LVM or not?

Type `lvdisplay` at the console to display any logical volumes. If you are
using LVM, you should see one named something like 'VolGroup00_lv-root'
If this is the case, something like this should help, but I have listed out
the steps below for the TL;DR version:
https://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/ExpandLV

*pvcreate /dev/xvdb*(xvdb is the Xen version, you may see sdb or some
other combination.)
*vgextend VolGroup00 /dev/xvdb*(Where VolGroup00 is the Volume Group
you found before)
*lvextend -l +100%FREE /dev/VolGroup00/lv-root* (Or where ever the LVM
device is created. lvdisplay will show you this.)

Then simply:
*resize2fs /dev/VolGroup00/lv-root*
to expand the filesystem on the new block device.

Hope that helps.

Re: [CentOS] Network hangs after several hours (Centos 6 recently upgraded kernel/glibc)

2016-02-19 Thread Ian B
Thanks Richard,

We currently do all security updates at short notice (as opposed to
everything), via a script. I've amended the grub config and rebooted to
make sure it will reboot into the correct kernel now, and yes
/etc/sysconfig/kernel was different to production servers. We may try all
packages if it continues to be unstable now and maybe whatever as its on a
dev server to test.

Thanks again,

Ian

Re: [CentOS] Network hangs after several hours (Centos 6 recently upgraded kernel/glibc)

2016-02-19 Thread Ian B
Just noticed that in the trace, it shows an old kernel, so I don't think
grub was automatically selecting the latest kernel. Just wondering what
process updates the default to be the latest kernel, and if a problem could
be an update but grub selecting an older kernel, but other packages updated
?

[CentOS] Network hangs after several hours (Centos 6 recently upgraded kernel/glibc)

2016-02-19 Thread Ian B
Hi all,

We have a development server we have just tried updating the kernel & glibc
after recent recommendations. Its been stable previously for a few years
with only scheduled reboots.

Its running
Centos 6.6(final)
2.6.32-573.18.1.el6.x86_64
GNU libc 2.12

Upgraded via YUM, rebooted, all fine for several hours, and then network
seemed to hang. Not much happening as its a dev server we are testing
before moving to production.

Googling, I see there is some history of e100e driver having issues, and
I'm wondering if it could be related.

Does anyone have any thoughts on where to do with it, as I'm assuming it
will hang again later.

Thanks, Ian

It seems like RH 3.8 was around the time of Fedora Core 3-5 so 
you might be able to install packages from the Fedora archive:


http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/fedora/linux/core/

Otherwise you could rebuild source packages from there with:

rpmbuild --rebuild ...

Talks about this upstream Redhat problem -

When you read that errata it talks about RHEL 7 and in fact the filesets 
mentioned in the
CentOS announcement are for CentOS 7 which leaves us in a state of a CentOS 6 
system trying
to install CentOS 7 filesets (some examples)

PreReq now has the same effect as Requires.  In earlier versions
it did what you want and I don't know about CentOS 5 but PreReq is
equivalent to Requires in later releases.

For Centos 6 and 7 you want OrderWithRequires which was introduced
in rpm 4.9 and backported to Centos 6 earlier this year.

The saved rules are under /etc/firewalld/zones.   The rules for the
default zone should be the ones loaded.  The default zone is defined 
in /etc/firewalld/firewalld.conf.

Re: [CentOS] Grub legacy on Centos 7

It is definitely possible to use GRUB legacy with CentOS 7.  I do it on
several systems.  Note that there is a bug in the current EL 7 version
of grubby which causes the initrd line to not be added to the stanza of
newly installed kernels.

Always check /etc/grub.conf before rebooting to a newly installed
kernel, particularly when doing so remotely.  :-/

Re: [CentOS] Bonds Bridge best practices

Now i create a bridge interface namely br20 (20 being the VLAN) and
assign it a IP Address , subnet mask and the default gateway. I will use
this IP to reach the server. So it is like a management bridge for me.
Secondly this bridge is associated with the bond0.20

Can i create another bridge namely cr20 ( 20 being the VLAN ) on the
bond1 interface ? This bridge does not have any ip address associated
with it. I just want to use it for guest VMs.

Is this the correct way to configure ?


From what you've written, that will work.  A couple of notes, however:

* I don't see any reason for the existence of br20.  If all of your
  VMs are going to be attached to cr20 (on bond1.20), you could simply
  assign the host OS IP to bond0.20.

* If you're not already aware, not all bonding modes work well with VMs.
  Modes 1, 2 and 4 definitely work (although mode 1 can theoretically
  lose some of the packets destined for VMs in the event of a failover).

The preferred partition type is 0xfd, but that ONLY when building a RAID
array from partitions.  When building an array from whole disks (as
you've done), the partition types on top of the array should reflect
the contents of those partitions, so what you've got is correct.

I have a Dell server that has two built-in ethernet devices. When I

hardware, kickstart now fails because for some reason it goes through a
rename process where it makes the newly added card eth1 (or eth0, I

uses the physical hardware the way they are, meaning physical port 1 =
eth0, port 2 = eth1, and the additional ethernet card then becomes eth2?


What version of CentOS are you trying to install?  I would expect that a
recent version would use the biosdevname interface naming scheme on a
Dell server.

[CentOS] Can't build RPM for i686 target (i386 works)

2014-11-19 Thread Ian Pilcher
I'm creating a simple RPM for my 32-bit CentOS 6 server.  When I build
the RPM without specifying a target architecture (rpmbuild foo.spec), it
successfully builds an i386 RPM.

If I try to build an i686 RPM, I get nothing:

  $ rpmbuild --target i686 foo.spec
  Building target platforms: i686
  Building for target i686

And I'm returned to command prompt with no error message.  The SPEC file
doesn't contain any architecture-related tags.

I feel like I must be missing something really, really basic, but I'll
be darned if I can figure out what it might be.

Any ideas?

When I added --target i686 to the command line (or --target i386), I

RPM has been able to handle symlinks for a long time:

  $ rpm -ql kdelibs | grep libkunittest.so.4.13.3
  /usr/lib64/libkunittest.so.4.13.3
  $ rpm -qf /lib64/libkunittest.so.4.13.3
  kdelibs-4.13.3-1.fc20.x86_64

I presume that yum is querying RPM for information about installed
packages, causing the installed version of glibc to automagically
provide /usr/sbin/ldconfig.  Let's test:

  # ln -s /usr/sbin /foo
  # rpm -qf /foo/ldconfig
  glibc-2.17-55.el7_0.1.x86_64
  # yum provides /foo/ldconfig
  ...
  glibc-2.17-55.el7_0.1.x86_64 : The GNU libc libraries
  Repo: @updates
  Matched from:
  Filename: /foo/ldconfig

So yum has (and uses) more information about installed packages.

Anyone know of a source for $SUBJECT.  RPMForge, etc., don't seem to

Thanks!

 SELinux is not running. Any other ideas?

 This was a minimal install for a virtual server and semanage is not
 available so the command doesn't work...
 
 What package is semanage in?

  # yum provides '*/semanage'

It's in policycoreutils-python.

 /usr/sbin/sshd -d seems to work properly and accept connections at the

 the port, even after a reboot.

What does 'journalctl -u sshd.service' say?
