Is there a maximum requests per second that CentOS can handle? For example, a site like wikipedia gets at least 30,000 requests per second, so could CentOS handle that many requests? Some people told me that CentOS cannot and i would need to get a custom kernel.

I'm running wordpress and have gone to the painstaking effort of setting up the ftp server on my 5.3 machine so it can do its own updates and download plugins. However, I've found that if I try to download anything, I get a "unable to resolve host..." error from the script. If I watch Iptraf while making the request, I see all the port 53 requests going to 127.0.0.1. Pings are too.
However, if I ssh in, I can ping and wget and whatever I want all day long and all the DNS requests to go the router (Clarkconnect 3.2 gateway machine). The web browser in the terminal works fine too. What is it about the php scripts that is causing them to misdirect pings and dns requests? I've never seen anything like it and can't find anything on the web about it either.

While searching for the maximum numbers of CPUs supported by CentOS 5 x86_64 I found the following page: [URL]. The question I have regarding the specified information ("64/255" logical CPUs) is, which number means what. Does this mean 64 real CPUs with a maximum of 255 cores/hyperthreaded CPUs or something similar or totally different?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am about to purchase a new external hard drive which will be driven through the USB port. It will probably be a 1.0 TB drive from Frys/CompUSA/MicroCenter or some discount source. It will probably come formatted to run on a Windows machine and I intend this drive to be run only from my Linux laptop. I'd like to format it to be able to make the most of it from my Linux machine. Although re-formatting may not be absolutely necessary, as it probably will work "OK" just out of the box as is, how can I format it to get the maximum usage out of this new drive?

Question 2: on my server im running a script like imagebam and imageshack with hosts images so i have quite a few apache requests to my server. I am wonder why apache takes up so much CPU for some of the requests ? in Htop some requests take up 1.2% CPU while other take up 3-5% etc, so the total load is about 1.50 0.58 0.84 to 2.61 1.08 1.14 with about 128-150 apache requests all the time while sometimes the CPU load can be almost 0 with the same ammount of requests. is this normal? what could cause this in apache ?? the server is just running apache2. MYSQL is running on another server.
I've been scouring the message boards and trying different things for two days and haven't found a solution. I set up Ubuntu 10.04.1 a few days ago using the server iso and selected the LAMP installation option. I will be using it as a sandbox to try out things from a PHP/MySQL book I purchased.
I have installed Gnome since sometimes I just can't get the command prompt to let me do things and Gnome may at least tell me why. I also installed PHPMyadmin.
My problem is that I can work with this thing all I want in any way I want - HTTP, SSH, SFTP, etc. - from within my home network but Apache refuses to respond to an outside request. Since it's only a test box it usually wouldn't be that big of a deal but I am going out of town for a couple of days and would really like to start working with my new book.
I am 99% sure my ISP is not blocking any ports. I have a ComTrend ADSL modem with router. I have given my Apache server a static IP on the NAT (xxx.xxx.x.101) and set up a dyndns address so I don't have to keep remembering the IP address.
Here is what I have tried so far: Setup a virtual server (port forwarding) on the router to to direct traffic on port 80 to internal IP .101The router told me its interface is using 80 so it would move itself to 8080 Made sure to also add port trigger for port 80 Made sure to save/reset the router Used my iPhone to connect via 3G - didn't work using IP or dyndns name Used iPhone to connect to 8080 and router responded
Set port forwarding/triggering for 8080 -> 80. No joy there, either Tried changing listening port to 8000Set port forwarding and triggering to allow port 8000 Changed ports.conf to read NameVirtualHost *:8000 and Listen 8000 Changed first line of /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default to <VirtualHost *:8000> Restarted Apache service
Apache responded to dyndns.com:8000 from home machine No response when trying same on iPhone (sorry, it's the easiest way for me to test from outside my home network)
At one point, I added "ServerName localhost" to the otherwise empty httpd.conf file but that didn't seem to do a darn thing.
Many of the posts I have perused are at least a couple of years old and have included information on taking action with files that are not there or are no longer where they were. I have interpolated where I can but so far nothing has worked.
I'm the only one who uses or has access to my computer, so I don't need the password security that others might. Frankly, it pisses me off to have to enter my password every time I leave the computer for a few minutes, or want to make the many tweaks that are necessary to get a system going, whether it's installing software or anything else. How do I stop it?

I am trying to send a multicast stream out from a Windows XP computer to my FC12 computer. I am using VLC for both the stream and the receive end of the process. Its version is 1.1.0-pre1 if that helps.As of right now I've used Wireshark to detect network packets, and I am unable to see any IGMP requests from the Fedora's IP address, whereas when I try to initialize a receiving stream on my Windows XP computer, I can see IGMP packets where appropriate. So the issue clearly lies with either VLC in Fedora, or Fedora itself, but I can't figure out how to narrow it down any further.
If it helps, I AM able to stream FROM my Fedora computer TO my Windows computer. Additionally, I am UNABLE to stream from my Fedora computer back to my Fedora computer (locally), despite being able to do that on the Windows side.
Is there a way of altering the time between password requests. For example after I login there seems to be a certain amount of time before the screen blanks out and a new request for the user password is asked. I would like to increase the time substantially.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a server (Fedora 12) setup at a client's datacenter and the network is setup to allow me ssh access into the server, but prevents me from opening any connections from the server. However, I need to make http and https request from the server. What I'd like to do is forward all http/https traffic through another machine outside the network.
I've been looking at the documentation for ssh and the various options there and have gotten so far as to enable initiating an ssh connection from the client network back to my machine, but am not sure where to take it from there.
Here are some of the commands I've used so far:

I'm attempting to bind port 80 to be forwarded through the local machine. I assume I use "ssh -R" to create a dynamic tunnel to forward requests but I must be missing something.
By the way, root login via ssh is disabled.
I'm trying to work out a way to inspect/modify dns requests as an advertising filter. Iptables is a good place to do this, but I'm having some problems disassembling the packet. On my dev box, when a DNS reply is returned from a request made on the dev box. I use this rule to route the reply packet through a queue:
iptables -A INPUT -p udp --sport 53 -j NFQUEUE --queue-num 1
Will the rule catch the inbound udp packet with the dns reply in it? I get something in the queue, but it's unintelligible when attempting to disassemble the packet. I don't want to move onto looking at my program until I get some feedback on the rule.
Here's a primitive diagram of what I'm working towards:
host ->DNS request->iptables(no outbound rules)-> DNS Server
->DNS Answer ->iptables(queue udp 53 packets)
->inspect packet program-> Allow/Deny -> host processes allowed packets
