Oct 3, 2009i find this is an issue which might be tiresome for everyone except for those experts. Esp. for the computers which are dual booting(both windows xp and centos installed in the same computer), that when we are in CentOS we need to switch onto windows immediately. and vice versa. i see this is possible only by shutting down the centos/windows and then restarting onto the other OS.
Can anyone tell me the the solution to work simultaneously both xp and centos without the need of shutting down and restarting There maybe or may not be the solution...but i find the pleasure to know if there is for example, remote desktop connection in windows xp, is there any solution, we can work on windows via centos or vice versa ( in the same machine),
Ubuntu :: Accessing Files That Are "off Limits" In Other Partitions?
Jul 23, 2010I've used Ubuntu for several years now, but it's my first post to these forums. I'm in the process of recovering from a major, non-recoverable error with my OS. I've managed to salvage the vast majority of my files by booting through a live CD and mounting the damaged partition in order to transfer my files to an external hard drive in preparation for a clean install of the OS. However, I've encountered a problem accessing and copying certain files, with a dialog box informing me that "You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "Folder Name."

Jul 29, 2011I have a small network with my Centos 5.6 box and a Win XP PC on it.I can access the files on the PC from the Centos box by bringing up the RUN window (ALT-F2 in Gnome) and typing smb://192.168.1.X/C (where X is the address of the PC), and I get a window with the C: drive from my PC. I can then drag/drop files between the Centos box and the PC. Here are my questions:
1) I want to script the file transfer, so how do I do this from the command line?
2) On the PC, I have 2 drives C, and E. They appear to be set up the same, but the E drive looks empty when I do this using the interactive method above.
I found this tutorial http:[url]..... but I can't get my PC "visible" in the smbtree.Really, I just want to write a script that does a backup on the Centos box and copies it to the E (External) Drive on the PC. (I'm a novice when it comes to administration)

View 1 Replies View RelatedCentOS 5 :: Accessing An LVM Partition?
Sep 15, 2010I tried to reinstall Centos, and the reinstall failed due to a flash disk being pulled out in the middle of the operation. I am left with an un-bootable system and I want to access my data, if possible.
Prior to the reinstall the disk info was:
== BEGIN cat /etc/fstab ==
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
[Code]...
So, The disks are still intact (I hope) but the LVM information is gone.is there anyway I can access /dev/sda2? When I try mounting it from the Rescue environment the command hangs, i.e. nothing happens.

Jun 3, 2010I have a webservice which runs under Apache Tomcat. The service is started via a script in /etc/init.d. During the course of the Web service processing, the software must make use of the two NVIDIA GPUs on the computer to do some graphics processing. When this system is booted but not logged in, the web service is accessible but the software cannot access the software cannot access the X server to do it's processing. However, when I am logged in, the user can access the X servers and run correctly. I have tried various solutions but I always have to be logged in to run the software. I seem to have permissions problems but I'm unsure how to resolve them
Is there any way to grant permissions to root (the tomcat service is started as root) to allow it to run the software without logging in?

CentOS 5 :: Accessing USB Hard Drive Via VNC?

CentOS 5 Hardware :: Accessing Live CD Remote GUI?
Apr 10, 2010I have been using the Centos 5.4 live CD to do volume resizing etc for root volume which can't be readily dismounted. I have also been using it to clone systems. It is a really great tool - even offering the same GUI interface I have come to know and love...One added feature which would be great for me would be to package "nx server" and/or "webmin" with it so it can be used to maintain remote and "headless" servers.
That way - when heavy duty maintenance is required on a remote system - the sysadmin (me) could ask the site owner to boot with the live cd - and do the rest remotely. Also it would make maintenance of headless servers easier.I'm not sure whether the live cd is inherited more or less complete from the upstream provider - or whether it is completely re-packaged at centos. I'm also not sure how technically difficult it is to re-package a live cd with extra services.

View 1 Replies View RelatedCentOS 5 :: Changing Partitions After Install?
Jul 29, 2009We just got a dedicated server from 1&1 which came with a 64-bit CentOS 5 minimal system install. Only later, we found out that it's partitioned in a strange way:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/md1 950M 902M 0 100% /
/dev/md5 4.7G 1.1G 3.7G 22% /usr
/dev/md6 4.7G 897M 3.8G 19% /var
/dev/md7 221G 4.8M 221G 1% /home
none 998M 0 998M 0% /tmp
How can we get it re-partitioned so that all available disk space is allocated to the / directory instead of /home? Is it possible at all?
The 1&1 support is saying that this is a standard install and won't help.

View 3 Replies View RelatedCentOS 5 :: Resizing Software RAID1 Partitions
Oct 22, 2009I have software RAID 1 on two physical discs. There are now 4 md -partitions (md0 ... md3), which are used in such as / and /home among others. Now current size of /home (md3) is starting to be full, and since / (md1) has more than plenty of free space I decided to fix the situation by shrinking / (md1) partition to free 40 Gigs of space and then growing /home (md3) partition for that 40 Gigs.
I already checked for some info using mdadm and got the following:
Now I would need some support on HOW exactly should I do this resizing since it is on RAID partitions.
Would it be good to use resize2fs to modify the filesystem sizes and mdadm to configure the partition sizes. Or could I perhaps get over this even easier by using GPartED (in case it supports my RAID)? Has anyone here done similar resizing on software RAID1 partitions?
CentOS 5 :: Can't Boot The System After Resizing The Partitions
Nov 9, 2009I had installed CentOs 5.3 on a Virtual Box machine (v. 3.0.10) and then I needed more free space to upgrade to CentOS 5.4 on partition /. I wanted to substract some space from /home partition in order to add some more free space to /. Thus I used a gparted live cd (v. 0.4.8-1) that it is a debian live cd. I resized the partition as I wished and every operations went successfully, but when I tried to reboot the only message that I see its 'GRUB' and nothing else happen. If I start again with the gparted live cd, everything seens to be fine as the partitions are there but I can't boot the system.
