[CentOS] openldap-server 'TLSVerifyClient demand' fails on centos 6.2?
ldapsearch -x -ZZ works fine on clients, when the server side slapd.conf has
'TLSVerifyClient' is set to 'try'. But after I changed that the 'demand' all
clients' ldapsearch -x -ZZ command fails immediately. I run the 'slapd -d3'
at server side too.
It looks like maybe 'ldapsearch -x -zz' didn't send out client certificates,
even though it should with '-ZZ' options -- from ldap.conf manual?
My client side /etc/openldap/ldap.conf is like below:
BASE dc=example,dc=com
URI ldap://ldapmaster.example.com
## working
TLS_CACERT /etc/openldap/myca.crt
TLS_CERT /etc/openldap/ldapclient01.crt
TLS_KEY /etc/openldap/ldapclient01.key
My server side setup is:
## now using my own CA
## and it works!
TLSCACertificateFile /etc/openldap/myca.crt
TLSCertificateFile /etc/openldap/ldapmaster.crt
TLSCertificateKeyFile /etc/openldap/ldapmaster.key

[CentOS] Probelm solved -- Re: openldap-server 'TLSVerifyClient demand' fails on centos 6.2?
Found the problem and solved.
I accidently copied the file /etc/openldap/ldap.conf accidently to under /root
account as .ldaprc file and immediately the problem goes away. Read manual
again and found that the tls_cert and tls_key are USER_ONLY option!
So now the problem goes away, and sure I'lll change the TLSVerifyClient option
back to 'try'. It is of no immediate uses if TLS client authentication is only
user-option.
Thanks.

Hi all, I'm just scrambling to collect clues to build an Amazon AWS AMI based on Centos 6. the AWS PV-GRUB kernel loads my kernel but failed immediately. I'm using stock Centos 6 kernel 2.6.32-71.29.1.el6. and the kernel seems have xen? support? My questions are: 1, Are the centos 6 stock kernels, like kernel-2.6.32-71.29.1.el6.x86_64, EC2 compatible? 2, If the answer to the above #1 question is NO, the are the centos plus kernels, like kernel-2.6.32-71.29.1.el6.centos.plus.x86_64, EC2 compatible? 3, If the answers to both above are 'NO', then Are there any instructions to build a EC2 kernel based on kernel source RPMs?

[CentOS] EC2 compatible kernel for centos 6?
Hi all, I'm just scrambling to collect clues to build an Amazon AWS AMI based on Centos 6. the AWS PV-GRUB kernel loads my kernel but failed immediately. I'm using stock Centos 6 kernel 2.6.32-71.29.1.el6. and the kernel seems have xen? support? My questions are: 1, Are the centos 6 stock kernels, like kernel-2.6.32-71.29.1.el6.x86_64, EC2 compatible? 2, If the answer to the above #1 question is NO, the are the centos plus kernels, like kernel-2.6.32-71.29.1.el6.centos.plus.x86_64, EC2 compatible? 3, If the answers to both above are 'NO', then Are there any instructions to build a EC2 kernel based on kernel source RPMs?

Hi, Just like to ask some questions regarding creation of Amazon AWS EC2 AMIs based on Centos 6 along with centos 6 stock kernel -- as there are no 2.6.32 or higher version Amazon AWS kernel anymore. My questions are: 1, is the normal non-virtual stock centos 6.0 kernel(s) OK for use? or a xen enhanced kernel -- like centos 5' kernel-xen -- needs to be installed instead? 2, which tool is used to create initial ramdisk? mkinitrd or dracut? and are there any special modules have to be included explicitly? 3, can I build EC2 image in-house and then bundleupload it to Amazon S3, or I have to build it at EC2, as most of the available documents did? Please shed a light in this area if possible -- It will be more than glad if you have gone through all the dark forest and made an working Centos 6 EC2 AMIs with stock centos 6 kernel(s), and generous to share your glory with explorers still scrambling in the dark.

[CentOS] Please confirm: Centos 6's Anaconda doesn't install i686 RPMs on x86_64 arch
Hi all, I just like to confirm whether this is true: on x86_64 arch machines, Centos 6's anaconda/kickstart will install only noarch and x86_64 arches RPMs, and no i686 arch RPMs installed by default. This seems like exactly different from Centos 5 --- Centos 5 anaconda/kickstart install all i[3,5,6]86, noarch, and x86_64. I found the above fact from several Centos 6 kickstart installations, but like to get an 'official' confirmation from experts here, so to avoid the big mess on Centos 5 where I created my own installation repositories to filter out all i*86 and athelon RPMs for a 'pure' x86_64(noarch) kickstart installation environment. By the way, my Centos 6 installations show that yum with the default configuration will not install i686 packages on x86_64 arch as well.

Customer needs the upload status be confirmed everytime and data will be verified later easily when in need. Is there one or more popular tools available for this purposes? open source is preferred, but commercial ones are fine too as long as price Rsync over ssh is about as good as it gets for remotely updating files. If they can assemble a tree that matches the directory structure, 'rsync -av' will show a list of files that are different (and thus updated) and you can repeat it if you want - no output means the remote side is identical. Rsync over ssh doesn’t works but a little cumbersome – customer’s servers’ data center are far away from development site and link between is slow. So better one to data center’s one and from the latter to all others in data center. This will work better but still could be improved. Since customer has some scripts to be reloaded after codes/data are synced. You'd probably really want to wrap this with a version control system like subversion to get history, logging, rollback capability, etc. so Is there already an existing solution like this available, open source and commercial?

[CentOS] RPM python subroutine for (epoch, version, release) comparation?
Hi, all, On Centos 5 I am programming RPM with python recently. When I read the online RPM python programming guide at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/drafts/rpm-guide-en/ch16s05.html, I got confused at the EVR() function as the function returns the (epoch, version, release) as a string “%epoch-%version-%release”, and so the RPM comparing process is simplified as string comparing – which doesn’t look correct, am I wrong? See the code from the page: -- file_h = ts.hdrFromFdno(fd) file_ds = file_h.dsOfHeader() inst_ds = inst_h.dsOfHeader() if file_ds.EVR() = inst_ds.EVR(): print Package file is same or newer, OK to upgrade. else: print Package file is older than installed version. -- I’ve see another function in rpm object: rpm.versionCompare(h1,h2) which compare two rpm headers, Am I supposed to use this function or the EVR as documented? The former one is not well documented, though. Thanks. -- Robinson ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

It's written as a Unix filter, so it reads from STDIN

[CentOS] How to backup LV for XenU on Centos
Hi, Here is a newbie to Xen and LVM on Centos. I've created a Logical Volumn(LV) in the domain 0. and then install a XenU on the LV. IN more details: The LV is exported to XenU as xvda, and default Centos disk Layout is accepted -- /dev/xvda1 for /boot, /dev/xvda2 as Physical Volumn). Now my problem is: How to backup the Logical Volumn(LV) from Domain 0? I currently use dd to save it, is this the proper way? or can I create snapshot LV of the LV and 'dd' the snapshot LV? Because on the LV it is not a ext3/xfs file system, then I could not mount the LV, right? Any one please shed a light onto this?

If you install a Centos 4.0 now you can 'yum update'

floats with the symlinks to point at one containing

[CentOS] Centos 5.1 distro: How to upgrade 5.0 to 5.1 with yum??
Hi,
Redhat announced RHEL 5.1 on Nov 07, so hopefully
CentOS 5.1 will be ready shortly. But I get kind of
nervous of the arrival of 5.1.
My problem is: I have hundreds Centos 5.0 boxes just
finished installation and I will continue to install
and upgrade hundreds more in next few months. With the
arrival of Centos 5.1, I don't like to reinstall them
anymore but continuous upgrade instead -- if this is
possible?
Currently I download the Centos 5.0 upgrade packages
from mirror sites on Internet
(.../centos/5/updates/{SRPMS,i386,x86_64}/...), with
the arrival of Centos 5.1, are the existing Centos 5.0
update packages will be removed in honor of Centos 5.1
updates? or it will stay? And how about the Centos
5.1's default packages in distro?
Give an example here:
2.6.18-8.1.15 version kernel is the most recently
updated kernel for Centos 5.0 distro, if the Centos
5.1 distro comes with 2.6.18-8.1.1 kernel and in
the first few weeks there are no kernel updates for
5.1, then how can I upgrade my kernel to
2.6.18-8.1.1 naturally -- will the
2.6.18-8.1.1 shows in the same update sources
directories(.../centos/5/updates/{SRPMS,i386,x86_64/...)?
A similar question is: are the update diretories
contains only updates for 5.1 distro, or both 5.0 and
5.1?
Any clarifications are greatly appreciated.

It's simply. All things from 5.0 to 5.1 will be done
automatically via
yum (as standard update) or in rare situation can be
possibly depedency
problem (when mixing different repo ?).
So don't worry. if you are really affraid - update
only one box and test
... test ... then update the rest.
I must say. In Centos 4 world all updates from 1 to
2 to 3 ... to 5 were
go in smooth way.
Regards,
Irens
I have had my local 5.0 update repository
(.../centos/5.0/updates/{SRPMS,i386,x86_64}/...) setup
and used it for my 900+ boxes's daily upgrade already.
The repository is synchronized with official Internet
mirrors daily to keep it current.
My major concerns is: After the 5.1 is released, the
update channel/directory
(.../centos/5.1/updates/{SRPMS,i386,x86_64}/...) may
change to contain only updates for 5.1
snapshot/release, not updates since 5.0. If so, then
all my Centos 5.0 boxes will suffer.
I have the serious concern because most Centos Mirror
sites on Internet ONLY keep the updates for latest
release/snapshot, not holds updates since the
base(3.0, 4.0, 5.0 etc) release. This seems like a big
problem if we would like to install from base|initial
release (3.0, 4.0, 5.0) continuously and then use a
single up-to-date update/ repository to upgrade
machines to current level.
For example, at Stanford's Centos 4 mirror site, only
4.5 is mirrored while all the other
4.0/4.1/4.2/4.3/4.4 are not. and in the updates/
directory only updates for 4.5 are kept there. If the
same is true for all other sites honoring 5.0 series,
then I think I will definitely get screwed If I tried
to keep on using base 5.0 and daily synced updates/
(exactly the same) for upgrade.
Any mirror sites hold updates since base release? Or I
have to keep on adding more repositories to yum's
configuration? 5.0 distro, 5.0 updates, 5.1 distro,
5.1 updates, 5.2 distro, 5.2 updates. etc. If so, then
it is too low-performanced and erro-prone.
Any one have experience on upgrade Centos 4 releases
from 4.0 to 4.5 can shed a light on this?
Thanks a lot.

[CentOS] Why glibc-profile doesn't show up in Centos 5 ???
Hi, Anyone know what are the reasons behind that glibc-profile packages doesn't come with Centos 5 distribution which has version 2.5 glibc? Some colleagues around have been asking for the glibc profiling functions to be available continuously... I could change the glibc source RPM/spec file to disable '--disable-profile' option and recompile the core glibc packages. But I am not sure whether this is the correct way. Nevertheless, the glibc-profile may have a unknown strong reason not to show up in Centos 5. Please help. Thanks. Need a vacation? Get great deals to amazing places on Yahoo!

[CentOS] Any DNS zone files generation tools to recommend?
Hi, Any one would like to suggest an tool for large-sacle multiple-networks, multiple-views DNS zone files automatic generation? The DNS configuration tool comes with Centos 5 distribution, system-config-bind, looks like more improvment is in need; I've come upon a tool h2n, which create zone files from a static hosts file, looks like better. But I don't know pupular the h2n perl script is in use, and whether there are any other better/modern tool(s) to begin with. Any one can shed a light on this topic? Thanks a lot. Fussy? Opinionated?

[CentOS] Roll a .src.rpm without physical build?
Hi, I got into a situation where a source rpm (.src.rpm) file needs to be rolled but without build process involved. That is, I have a hacked version .spec file and a tarball, and needs to roll these two files into a .src.rpm file directly and send it out without build it. Any one know the command(s) to fullfill it? Thanks. --Guolin Be a better Heartthrob. Get better relationship answers from someone who knows. Yahoo!
