Re: [RESOLVED] YUM [Errno -1] Package does not match intended download

Are we sure that this is really resolved? I am able to update my CentOS 5.5 i386 boxes, but my x86_64 boxes are still failing on device-mapper-1.02.39-1.el5_5.2.i386.rpm in the x86_64 RPM folder with "Package does not match intended download".

Re: CentOS 5 testing security updates

The PHP packages in the CentOS testing repo are outdated. I used mock to rebuild the Red Hat Web Application Stack SRPMS for PHP 5.2.10. This looks to be where the CentOS testing PHP RPMs came from. http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/RHWAS/SRPMS/ The only downside is if you...

You can also use iptables to just refuse more than 4 connections within 30 seconds on SSH. iptables -N SSH_CHECK iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 22 -m state --state NEW -j SSH_CHECK iptables -A SSH_CHECK -m recent --set --name SSH --rsource iptables -A SSH_CHECK -m recent --update --seconds ...

Re: Intermittent hang/high iowait on software Raid 5

Which color ports are you using on that MSI board? Only 6 are going to be connected to the ICH10. The other 2 and the IDE connector are on a JMB363 controller. When the system hangs are you accessing the files over SMB, NFS, etc or are you using it locally? I've never had the best luck with desktop ...

Re: Dovecot keeps shutting down

Try disabling the cpuspeed service.

chkconfig cpuspeed off
service cpuspeed stop

From your description it sounds like you are running dovecot on CentOS installed on the physical box. Or is dovecot running in xen or something similar?

Re: Home server gateway

You are going to end up with a double natted situation the way you are configuring it. Your modem is setup for NAT translation hence the private IP it is giving you. It should block all ports from the outside and provide DNS and DHCP. If you want to use CentOS for this you should enable bridge mode ...

Re: Root permissions unset?

Use screen next time as it will let you resume your dropped SSH session. Since you are doing a clean install, just delete what it installed and start over. You can use updatedb and locate to help find the files.

Time on Xen VM's drifting ahead of real time

If you are going to use ntp in a vm you need to comment out the following lines in /etc/ntp.conf. The local clock should not be used as a backup source. Then use ntpdate to sync the time and start up ntpd. [code]# Undisciplined Local Clock. This is a fake driver intended for backup # and when no out...

Re: How to keep yum from updating OS version

You don't need to reload 4.4. You can just select the older kernel from the grub menu to boot. Once you are up and running either remove the newer kernel or edit /etc/grub.conf to set the default one to boot.
