CentOS 5 Hardware :: Software / Process Used For Automount Of DVD?
Feb 12, 2011
I'm running CentOS-plus V5.5.CDs automount fine, but DVDs don't. I can, however, mount DVDs manually.I have scoured the web without seeing a solution. Its also clear that the software or process used by the OS to automount a DVD, has changed in the last few CentOS versions. So now I would like to ask:,In V5.5, what is the current process or software used by the OS for automatically mounting media such as a CD or DVD?What configuration files are involved that allow a CD to be mounted, and what entry(ies) would be needed to automount a DVD?

We've just set up 3 Dell systems with 64 bit Red Hat Enterprise Workstation 5. As part of our system configuration we point the user authentication to our LDAP server, and automount people's home directories from our fileserver. At this point, our security people do some configuration and we get it back.
We are typically running KDE. On all three machines, when you plug a USB stick into the system, the familiar window pops up asking you what you want to do - open the contents in some program, open a file viewer, etc. and the stick shows up in /media When you stick a CD or DVD into the drive nothing happens - you don't get the options window and nothing appears in /media I'm trying to get an idea of how the automount process works, and where I may have stepped on it. We've got three more identical machines that haven't been installed yet, so my plan is to check the ability to automount CDs at various stages of our setup process.

The DVD was created with Nero Express on a Windows XP SP3 system and reads perfectly well there.On CentOS 5.3 (at least) it will not automaount. I can mount and dismount the DVD manually. I can access the DVD with K3b.CDs mount just fine and come up as an Icon on the Gnome desktop. This is what I would like to happen for the DVD as well. The CD mounts at /media, which puzzles me. I read through a great deal on the web, but have found nothing that addresses the specfic probem. I know the Gnome Volume Manager and HAL are gone. I tried changing the autofs settings by adding the following line to the /etc/auto.misc file
dvd-fstype=auto,nosuid,nodev :/dev/dvdrw
to join the line for the CD, and then rebooting, but without success.

I have build the fuse and ntfs-3g module. Via console I can mount ntfs volumes via mount -t ntfs-3g.But under gnome I get only the messagage that the system don't support ntfs. What must I change, that the gnome volume manger (I think) use ntfs-3g to mount the volumes.

I have an IMAC (I7) that is running CENTOS 5.4 on and need to be able to mount a fireire disk automatically when plugged in. We can do this manually running: fdisk -l then choosing the correct disk and mounting it
mount /dev/scd1 mnt The problem we have is that this machine needs to go in a client office on the other side of the world and we need it to be idiot proof. I need to be able to autodetect and mount the disk like you would if it was running OSX. Obviously the hardware works, just the automount or autodetect does not work.
We've already commented out the blacklist in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-firewire Is there some other setting I need to automount the disk. Alternatively I'll have to write an application to perform the fdisk and mount as root, which I don't particularly want to do.

I have been running a server for 3-4 years now, and my shares have been mounting just fine. Well, the network admin looked at a backup and seen that the last date backed up was june. I got to looking around and seen that the share is not mounting. I can mount it with sudo mount -a, which tells me my syntax is correct. I get an error about IPv4 socket not opened and it is aborting the operation when I run dmesg | tail, since I can use the above command to mount later, it sounds to me like it is trying to mount before the network connection is ready.
I have done some looking over some init scripts and found that in the /etc/rc.d/init.r/netfs script it has a line that states that it is checking to see if the network is up before it starts to mount the filesystems and the such. This is set to no, my question is, can I change this option to yes and get my desired results, waiting for the network to be up before it mounts the filesystems.

I am trying to install CentOS 5.2 on an HP rp5700 desktop unit. These units were originally sold as a Point of Sales unit I believe, but HP also markets it as a high life cycle server for SMB market.I tried to load CentOS on this unit via CD (created from downloaded ISO of course). It presents the initial CentOS banner page and waits for the obligatory "enter" to continue. It begins the boot process up to discovering the PCI stuff and just locks up, no response. I have to power down to restart.Since this does not even get to the point of installing. I am at a loss what to do next. Has anyone had a similar issue with other PCs.The boot stops at the lineACPI: PCI Root Bridge [PCI0] (0000:00)

This is a long shot but I'm looking for a way to assign an IP to a specific location or process. I'm running a server for a small indie game that I liked, I intend on running as many gameservers as possible from this server, however I hit a problem: The game limits servers to 4 per IP address, after this the servers no longer are able to connect to the main server and therefore be used. My server has enough IPs to run many gameservers, but I'm unable to work this out.
I need to assign either an IP address to a process or folder, right now I have it set up like so: (assuming 1.1.1.1 = server IP)
/gameservers/server1/program < assigned to 1.1.1.1
/gameservers/server2/program < assigned to 1.1.1.1
/gameservers/server3/program < assigned to 1.1.1.1
/gameservers/server4/program < assigned to 1.1.1.1
[Code]....
I do not have access to modifying the core program, it runs in Java. How would I go about doing this, if indeed possible? I need to either apply the selected IP to a folder or process without changing the actual program.

I have a process that seems to be unexpectadly quitting. Checking the messages log I could not find anything out of the ordinary. Would anyone here know how to make a process unkillable or lock a process somehow? I read information on doing this by making a looped iso, however the process im starting requires to be able to read/write to the files in the iso so this is not going to work. For now I just niced the process to top priority but I dont really think that will work. This process is a voice server so I dont want people getting discouraged that the server will not stay up and decide not to use the free service im offering.
Would anyone else have any insight as to what I can do? Im not new to linux but im not familiar enough with how every command is used, so if at all possible please give me the commands that need to be executed.

It's my first post and think not last here. I'm new to Linux system ( had a bit of unix programming at school but forgot already ). Please, take a good care of nooby me Now, let's get to the point
I have CentOS installed on one of my machnce, its my PHP development server. I also wanted to run a Minecraft server on it. I would like to skip autostart with init.d thing and be able to control it's run manually, but remotely. Thing is, when i log via putty to server and start server the server output is in terminal. When I close puty, ran application closes also. So I need to have putty window ran all the time.
So, since many programs can be run as background task (like httpd). Is there a way to log via putty. Start application and send it to process... log out of putty ( and application doesn't shut down with putty)?
Also, would be nice if I was possible to log to putty and switch to that application, so i could see server output, info and Issue commands. Basically, I want to start a service and be able to manage it via putty. and not close it when i terminate putty.
PS: I have installed Windows on CentOS server. Is there a way to issue a system start without loading whole GUI thing? When I was installing it I thought it would be easier to manage it with GUI, but now loading it only eats system resources and i unplugged monitor and mouse nad manage it only from Putty

Is there a way of throttling a process resources, something akin to limits but for processes not users?ie I want processX to be restricted in the amount of memory it can consume. For process cpu I guess I can simply nice the process, but total memory consumption is my primary concern.

My centos machine suddenly stuck, the hdd LED flashes constantly, and the system reacts to all my operations very slow. I even cannot log in to a native terminal (always timeout). I had no choice, I pressed the power button. Reboot once failed. The system failed to find mount points.
I inserted the installation disk into computer and entered rescue mode. But I found everything was there. And another reboot brought up the system. I wonder what was the process that stuck my system.

My program is creating 4 threads per transaction. Threads doing nothing but simply sleeping.
Now, when transaction ends, I want to wake up all the threads from sleeping. For this I am using pthread_kill() to wake up the threads using signal SIGUSR2.
Problem raises when I put more transactions(eg. 100 trans). My process gets hangup.

I'm have some desktop computers sharing my Centos 5 server diskpace through NFS. From time to time, without any warning, lockd bugs and all the users that are using GTK applications like Firefox,Gnome.get stuck.
My first atempt is to restart the NFS, but locked files persist because I can kill the lockd pid process, even using root account , I suppose this is because it's a kernel process. Here is the message error I get when restarting NFS matrix kernel: lockd_down: lockd failed to exit, clearing pid

We had servers that worked fine for years. After updated them to the latest version of CentOS (5.2 with latest updates), they keeps on hanging when being scanned by PCI Verdors (a Credit Card security standard). Basically, the scan causes httpd process to eat up all memory, and the server becomes unresponsive. Normal operations resume after the scan stops for 5, 10 minutes. Output from top looks like the following:
Mem: 1018988k total, 1007168k used, 11820k free, 432k buffers
Swap: 2096440k total, 2096440k used, 0k free, 4528k cached
