when I installed my server I had an FTP server running, I thought it was vsftpd. I stopped vsftpd one day though, and I could still FTP into my server. This mystery FTP daemon is SFTP (using port 22), and now it does not work. I've tried enabling vsftpd and I still cannot connect to my server. I've checked my firewall and I have FTP and SSH allowed. What might this mystery FTP program have been?
View 7 RepliesForgive my newness, but here goes. I installed CentOS 5.5 on a Dell with a Soundblaster card. The soundcard config utility recognizes the device as:
Vendor: Creative Labs
Model: CA0106 SoundBlaster
Module: snd-ca0106
I am able to play the default sound in the utility, however, I get no sound when I select the device in Skype as Default Device CA0106. Is there a permission somewhere I am missing, because I noticed when I try to play an internet radio stream using Shockwave Flash, I also have no audio.
I am trying to use CentOS 5.4 to set up a secure laptop, largely because of it's SELinux functionality. Unfortunately I couldn't get wireless to work properly using the default NetworkManager so I installed wicd. Initially it buggered up my whole installation but after relabelling files using SEL I can now use my system again. but.. I can't use it with SELinux enabled, as it denies the required accesses for wicd to work. I also get similar SELinux denials for wpa_supplicant. A couple of snippets from /var/log/audit/audit.log -

yesterday I installed my first CentOS system. Before I was always using Debian for my servers. When I configured my vsftpd I was just wondering how to setup xinetd or inetd for listening on ports and starting vsftpd. I found /etc/xinetd.d. But there is no xinetd installed by default. Why? Shall I start all my services in standalone mode? What is the concept of CentOS in this issue?

I did the following: vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config; uncommented Port 22 and changed it to the desired port number. After that I run service sshd restart for the change to take an effect. Now, when I want to login into the new port I receive this message - Network error:Unable to route to host. When I change the port back to 22, I will be able to login again.

I want to change my MySQL default port(3306) as 80 how can i do this on centOS 5.2? I tired to add
[client]
port=80
to /etc/my.cnf and different command in this file. But mysql didn't start. How can do this? I'll use server only as mysql and ftp server.
I was working on a shell script to change the permissions of large directories and subdirectories because of an exploit discovered in the programs that run in those said directories that allow a client to upload and download files to the server. Loan behold I accidentally added a space and had something along the lines of "chmod -R 770 ." run on / logged in as root.
Yes, it was an incredibly noob move on my part, but nothing ventured nothing gained. I am surprisingly calm about this. I tried sliding in my CentOS installation disk and "Upgrading" CentOS but that only made it worse, beforehand I made everything owned by root so I could at least log into GNOME. This does not work for obvious reasons, namely having to change the permissions back for every user and every group, which far beyond a possibility.
Running a server using CentOS 5.5 (yum updated, x86_64), found that when using /usr/sbin/useradd to create system user, the quota for the user will default set to 5M soft and 10M hard (on /var/spool/mail partition). As remember the default setting for user quota should be both zero when create a new user.
man useradd and quota related command and no help, had any idea how to change/set the default quota when create user.
I install a Bind 9 with chroot in Centos 5, but the issue is the Reverse Name Resolution Zone File didn't create by default like other zone files, so i look into /var/named directory i don't find the reverse name resolution zone file even if i add this zone on named.conf
zone "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" IN {
type master;
file "1.168.192.testsip.com.zone";
allow-update { key "rndckey"; };
notify yes;

I am a Windows user for the last 14 years and am getting into the Linux world. I have a CentOS server set up at home and have been using SFTP. But now I am needing to install a program that has a exe file I can lauch from my Windows machine to the CentOS server but the only problem is it only uses FTP over port 21. I have found quite a few different posting on how to install FTP but only some of the commands they give work and I get a lot of no such directory. I will be using the FTP locally but have been getting frustrated setting it up. I do have it installed an am able to start the service but cannot connect. Is there a step by step information for setting this up? I am new to the command line and all the SCO stuff I used to know back in the early 90's is all gone from memory.

I have been a loving fan of your software for years now and have been trying to move into a new dedicated server, getting away from my VPS I have been anchored to. I had to change static ip's on my main internet line and thus got locked out of my server. I have the box here and I can console into it but I cannot get the new ip address to work. I have tried so many things it would waste more time than asking for the correct answer.
I know you are wise in the ways of the server as you have gotten me out of a jam in the past. I am currently running Centos 5.4 and a trial version of WHM/cPanel (which needs to be re-registered to the new address if I can ever get back online.)

When working with http, there is no problem: If url "http://www.abc.com/test" is requested, apache appends a "/" to the url and then respones to browser with code 301, telling it to request the newly-modified url ""http://www.abc.com/test/".
However, with https, things are not going as expected: If url "https://www.abc.com/test" is requested, the new url responsed by apache is "http://www.abc.com/test/", but not "https://...", resulting in browser's page load error.?

i have apache, php, mysql, etc installed, and running.
Phpinfo displays properly, and i can even do a few simple database calls via databases i made from the commandline.
I try to install the phpMyAdmin package (i think its from RPMForge, but it might be from EPEL). The package installs without problems, yet when i attempt to go to localhost/phpMyAdmin, i get a 404 error.
Is there something i need to do with my apache configuration to make this work? There seems to be very little documentation on this package.
If there isnt anything i could do, i could go through and do it by hand, but i want to have the advantage of using packages for the automatic updates.
EDIT1: Ok, i reinstalled the package, and now i get a 403:Forbidden instead of a 404.
Again, localhost/phpMyAdmin.

I just installed Centos 5.5 on one of my systems today and something is eluding me. Basically I had a web site and forum software (phpBB, but I don't think it's that, other forum software like Xoops does the same thing) running on Fedora 13, and I copied it over to the new Centos installation. Apache is running fine and displays a PHP test file and .html files just fine.
MySQL seems to be fine, I can log into that, show databases etc. Just can't get any forum software to know there is MySQL there. I did change the path of the site, and the databases, and edited /etc/my.cnf and /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf to reflect that. Thought I made the needed changes in /etc/php.ini but who knows. Seemed like everything should have tar'd up and moved easy, but not the case...
