CentOS 5 :: VNCviewer Stuck When Logout Remotely
May 16, 2011I managed to install Centos x86 for the first time, together with VncServer, SSH access, mySQL and Apache. Everything worked greater until I logged in remotely to the server from my Windows 7 machine using RealVnc. I manage to connect successfully and able to use the GUI remotely. However, when I press logout from the menu, the screen gets stuck on the funky blue and white curly background. It does not close automatically.
If I close it using the 'X' button and reconnect, I get in to same stuck screen. My only workaround is to login with Putty and type 'service vncserver restart'. Then I am able to connect again. But same thing happens when I do a logout.

CentOS 5 :: Ll Command Causes Terminal To Hang?
May 27, 2009I'm running into what is quite possibly one of the strangest problems I've ever encountered. We recently had a power loss, and some of our vmware instances didn't shut down correctly. Once of those is our Zabbix testing monitor. From that point on, whenever I run the "ll" command, my terminal freezes. This happens over both ssh and the local console. I've forced a disk check via the "shutdown -rF now" command, and it returned no errors. Since ll is simply an alias for ls, I copied ls (and the entire bin directory) from another Centos 5.3 instance, with no change in behavior.

CentOS 5 :: Switch To Root In Terminal?
Oct 19, 2009I just installed CenOS 5 on my server and am in the process of installing some software to the machine.
I understand repositories and was able to get it all set up for installation with the yum command.
My problem is that when I attempt the install, it says i need root access to install.
I tried using sudo commands to switch to root access, but after entering the password, it says my username isn't allowed root and that my actions will be reported.
I am the admin for the system and have total control, I just don't know how to switch to root in the terminal.

CentOS 5 Networking :: DNS Lookup Fails On Using Terminal
Oct 12, 2010I have a CentOS 5.5 desktop at work. I can browse the web (we are behind a proxy of course), I can use Yumex perfectly. In a word, every GUI has DNS working correctly. But, as soon as I use a terminal, either within a X session (xterm, konsole...) or in a tty, any DNS lookup will fail. So for instance, yum does not work as it complains about not being able to find the servers, wget doesn' t work... And if I try a nslookup, I get a NX Domain Fail. I feel like the servers are not doing recursion research when using command line nslookups, even if I "force" the option (adding it even if it is the default). Of course, resolv.conf is OK, host.conf as well...
View 8 Replies View RelatedCentOS 5 :: Gnome-terminal And Blinking Text
Jan 11, 2011I have a text based application that I need to use inside X. So I created a gnome-terminal profile called counter3 which runs the command /counter/counter3. I then created added a startup application: gnome-terminal --full-screen --hide-menubar --window-with-profile=counter3
Everything works great. I turn the PC on, it auto logins to the user counter, X starts, and the counter application starts full screen. The only problem is the text doesn't blink when there is a problem. How can I get the text to blink? The text blinks if I boot into runlevel 3 and run counter3 manually. However I need to run counter3 in X as there is a second application that requires X. The text application runs in the foreground and is used constantly. The X based application is run in the background.

View 3 Replies View RelatedCentOS 5 Server :: FreeNX - Cannot Get Shell Prompt In GNOME Terminal Window
Jun 9, 2010I've created a brand new CentOS 5.4 (Final) 64bit machine AMI on Amazon EC2. This was based off an existing image. I was able to follow the wiki to add NX server. I am using WIN XP desktop for NX client.
I can connect to the EC2 machine and get the GNOME desktop fine. I see the usual CentOS desktop and poke around.
Q/Problem:
I expected to open the Terminal window and get a shell prompt to su into root user (I need to be root to install some software that needs GUI). I do not want to install this from my plain SSH connection to EC2 (hence the NX server etc.).
When I open the Terminal window, all I get is the NX>105 prompt. I need to get to a shell prompt so I can su into root. For life of me, I cannot get around this prompt (I looked at NX documentation too). Note that this is a prompt NOT on client but on the remote machine. I do not need this as I'm already authenticated and logged in to remote GNOME desktop.
Obviously the TERMINAL is running some NX start up script (I've no idea which one). If there is some other way to sudo into root?
Debian Configuration :: XFCE Logout Doesn't Completely Logout Of System / Solution For This?
Oct 17, 2010As a normal user I have activated the functions of the Quit applet, i.e. Logout, Shutdown and Restart are active buttons. I am able to restart or shutdown, no problems. But when I use the Logout button I don't get logged out, just returned to the login shell & I am still logged in as my user. I don't have a display manager installed and I do NOT want to use a display manager such as XDM or GDM. How do I get the Logout button to actually logout the user? It appears I am only getting logged out of the x-session, but I want complete logout.

View 2 Replies View RelatedServer :: Unifying Permissions Between Two Servers - CentOS - Webmin/CentOs - Cpanel - And Rsync
Jan 1, 2010I have two servers, both running CentOS, but one running Cpanel as the control panel and the other running Webmin.
I would like to sync the web folders using rsync. However, when I sync the files from the Cpanel host the permissions look as follows:
Code:
But that doesn't work on the Webmin server which needs the following:
Code:
It seems the Cpanel install has the group as 'nobody' whilst webmin has it the same as the file owner. I can fix this by running:
Code:
But as the file transfers will be frequent, I don't want the files to be inaccessible until chown is run.
So, what I really want to know is - how can I change things on the 'webmin' server so that files with ownership owner:nobody will run?
CentOS 5 Hardware :: Error Installing CentOS 5.2 On ICH7R With 4 SATA HDDs RAID 5?
