I'm planning to upgrade my server to multiprocessor (2) and upgrade RAM to 16G, I'm running Centos 5.2
Is there a procedure in order to achieve this?
Server specifications:
HP ProLiant serie DL380 G5
1 Processor Intel Xeon E5440 Quad Core @ 2,83 GHz
RAM 2 GB (2 x 1 GB)
how to upgrade from centos 5.6 to 6?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI had a 5.3 CentOS server running beautifully. I upgraded to 5.4 for the improved power managment on my hardware, as well as improved network drivers. Unfotunately upgrading from 5.3 to 5.4 completely breaks vmware server 2.0.2.[URL]..
Unfotunately the downgrade of glibc is still resulting in unstable performance. Is it possible for me to downgrade to cent os 5.3 without re-installing the operating system? I'm really stuck here,
Due to all the "fun" I had upgrading spamassassin from 3.2.5 to 3.3.1 on C55 I thought I would detail it here so as to possibly save others from all the frustration I have endured. There are probably a zillion different ways to make this work but this is how I did it and it seems to work well.
1) Acquire spamassassin rpm.
I downloaded several different versions from various sites and had problems with all of them so I ended up grabbing the SRPM from Fedora 13 spamassassin-3.3.1-2.fc13.src.rpm. This of course will not load onto C55 as rpmbuild has changed so I loaded it onto a FC13 box and then TARed the SPEC & SOURCES directories, copied them onto a C55 and built SRPM from there.
2) Install on C55
The new spamassassin requires several updated packages to make it happy.
a) perl-Mail-DKIM greater than 0.31. I cheated and used this one from FC8 perl-Mail-DKIM-0.32-3.fc8.noarch.rpm
b) perl-socket6 that is 2.0 or later. I got this one from DAG perl-Socket6-0.20-1.rf.x86_64.rpm
c) perl-NetAddr-IP that is 4.0 or later. Again DAG saved the day perl-NetAddr-IP-4.007-1.rf.x86_64.rpm
d) the spamassassin of course :)
Actually I built them from the SRPMs as I needed both the 32 and 64 bit packages for various servers.
3) Run sa-update --D to get the latest rules then restart the spamassassin service. For those who do not have access to a FC13 box you can get a copy of the SRPM I made here [URL].
I installed PHP 5.3 from remi repository and now some PHP pages end up as blank pages. Joomla pages load with no problem but iDevAffiliate pages end up as blank pages. Could it be something in the php.ini file? I have no idea where to look. Any ideas?

Whenever I am trying to change the webroot of the httpd server, it usually say "directory doesn't exist". whereas which can't be the case as it is home directory of the user.
To achieve this, what Do I need to do?
The second issue, I am facing that whenever I am adding new directories to public_html folder, it is not accessible. as the error page 404 is shown. I have changed the permissions to 0705 and ownership is also transferred to other user. What else is required to make new directories accessible by the web?
I have been beating my head for the last few weeks on this problem, (although I have been taking the wrong approach, it seems).
I need a gateway to direct web traffic to three separate servers/domains. I have been trying to do this with both a dns server and , (seperatly), apache server to forward requests. The dns server was a no go, and <i can only get apache to redirect http and ftp.
After Googling this ALOT, I believe that what I need is a gateway server to redirect my traffic to the 3 different servers. I have been reading about using using nat and iptables for this and was wondering if anyone had any advice/suggestions on this. The other thought I had was to use something like pfSense to create the gateway, but I am still reading the documentation, and I am unsure if this approach will work.
In my httpd log I always get this recurring error
[notice] Digest: generating secret for digest authentication ...

i need to configure postfix on centos to relay email from the internet to the Exchange Server and i also need that emails sent from the exchange within the same domain be sent to postfix then resent to exchange because i have spamassassin and clamav installed on centos to filter all incoming and outgoing mails ...

I have one server at home, connected through a router that gives me a static IP:192.168.1.2 - My PC192.168.1.3 - CentOS serverI enabled the port 80 into router forwarding system and I can connect properly to CentOS server, using the IP my internet provider gives me. My router automatically forwards a changed IP to my dyndns.com account so I can also access the server through a domain name (I pay to have it linked to one of my domains).My next step is to configure the mail server (dovecot) , so I can send emails from my local server(192.168.1.3).I was wondering if anyone has any tutorial links or tips to have the mail server configured through a home internet provider + home router.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a weird performance issue with a centos 5 running a nfs server and a rh8 client. I think the fact that it is rh8 client should be downplayed. It is just that with rh8 client the performance degradation seems more clear. See test details below OS in server is Centos 5 x86_64 kernel 2.6.18-92.1.22.el5
1Gb connection between machines File to test over NFS is a 1GB file. First of all I wanted to measure how the network alone performs while using NFS. So in the server side I run a "cat" command on the 1GB file to /dev/null. Please note that the disk read speed is about 98MBs. At this point the file system has the 1GB file cached in memory. In the client side a "cat" on the same file gives me a speed of about 113MBs. It seems then that the bottleneck in this instance is the network and it is very close to nominal speed. So the network performance is really good. (BTW I know that the server got that file from cache because a vmstat or iostat shows no disk activity.)
The second test is reading from disk with no caching involve. In the server I flushed the 1GB file from the memory. For instance by reading another 5GB file and I repeat the same thing as above in the client (a cat on the 1GB file). Now, the server has to go to disk.(vmstat or iostat shows the disk activity). However the performance, now, is about 20MBs, I was expecting something closer so 90MBs. (since the reading speed in the server in the first test showed 98MBs).
This second test was repeated for ext2, ext3, xfs with no significant differences. A similar test using a RH8 NFS server and client gets me close to 60MBs for a 1GB file not cache by the file system in the serverSince network speeds and disk read speeds are not the bottlenecks ... what or where is the limiting factor then?
There is a tool appeared in repository called ktune; The purpose is to adjust some sysctl.conf settings to improve server speed on servers with heavy load. What is this tool for if one can achieve the same with the configuration file added to system startup? Or ktune is just such file?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a function in my SOAP server that returns an array. When the client calls this function, it only receives "array", and when I use foreach to print each member of this array, it tells me that this is not an array. If I change the returned value of the function to a string or integer type everything works fine though, so I don't think that there is any problem with the client.I am using NuSOAP library on php to achieve that.I had doubt when declaring the type of return value of the function. In XML schema there is no array type, so I specified the return value as a string like this:

I am now trying to setup a VSFTP server where local users can upload files to there home directory so that Apache can serve web pages straight from the directories of system user home/accounts giving users the ability to run their own web sites which are hosted off the main server [tutorial here: [url]
So far i have been able to serve/display index.html files from the users home directory [url] but so far i cant upload files to any user home directory, every time i try to upload a file with filezilla i get this error message: 553 Could not create file. Critical file transfer error
I have searched online for similar problems like mine and so far i've tried alot of the solution but none seem to work. I'm confused, dont know where i went wrong, i put the users in a group called ftpusers and here are the permissions on the users (test, ftpuser & testftp) home directory. have a look an tell me where i went wrong :(
Also the root directory where the web pages are served from is called public_html here are the permissions

I have configured openssh 5.8p2 with centos 5.6. My sftp is working fine with chroot environment but i am having problem with SCP. I am dealing with muliti Redhat servers. When i try to transfer data from other linux server through scp it gives connection refused. For e.g ssh 5.8 is configured on new server and i want to transfer files from old server which is using openssh 4.3 version.i created same username and password on new server as on old server.My sftp users on new server has no shell access but only sftp access. When i try to scp from old server to new server it gives error connection refused. Is the below configuration only for sftp and can't scp? According to google the configurations i found are for scp and sftp. Do i need to generate ssh keys by giving users on new server shell access, once created then stop shell access again, as i dont want to give shell access permanent for security reasons? but i want to use ssh keys for more security as well.
