Sometimes I use vnc server and start desktop. The memory use rises about 2gb during this. I need to be able to turn off the xwindows after I shutdown vnc without rebooting. Is there a way to do this?. And I don't need to know how to disable at boot thats not what I need to do.

I have recently installed Centos 5.4 on a server with 3 network cards. I am trying to enable IP forwarding which has been successful by executing the following command:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
I tried to make this permanent by adding net.ipv4.conf.default.forwarding=1 to the /etc/sysctl.conf file.
When I restart the network service I get the following code...
I just installed a CentOS 5.4 x 64 on a customer's server last Saturday. I use lpr/lpd to print through this server to our network printers.
yum install cups-lpd
Edit /etc/xinetd.d/cups-lpd: disable = no
I did several restarts on /etc/rc.d/init.d/cups. I even did a "kill -SIGHUP 0" and a "kill -SIGHUP pid_xinetd". No joy. I finally gave up and rebooted: joy. Shades of Windows.
What did I miss? How do I start cup-lpd after yum without rebooting.
I have recently done clean installs of 11.4 on two computers and then done clean re-installs but still have the same problem. Each time, the install was without flaw and I could download the updates, when offered, in the install process. At the end of the install I can log into KDE and everything works. However, after shutting down, on reboot, I only get a command line login. I can either login and run startx or use su and do init 3 followed by init 5. This tells me I am getting to runlevel 5 but X isn't starting. Either of those approaches gives me the KDE login. However, after that I have to manually start the network in YAST. I also think I had had to restart CUPS but I have only got as far as installing a printer once so I can't be absolutely sure that happened. As I indicate, this is fully reproducible. Anyone give me a clue as to what is going on?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI use a centos VPS with 1gb memory and enough space and brandwidth (if this info is off any use). What I want to achieve is that I can start and quit a process that is running in a screen, with using a script.
Like start.sh that does "screen serverapp1"
and stop.sh that does "kill serverapp1"
I already tried something like that, but it didn't work. The kill command only works with process ID's and that one is variable.

I am trying to give access to ONE single user to start and shutdown tomcat server. The problem being, when I enter syntax: username ALL= /etc/init.d/tomcat5, /usr/local/tomcat/webapps, PASSWD:ALL This gives the user access to start and stop tomcat but also gives user access to start and stop other services within /etc/init.d - such as httpd etc... What is the proper way to give user access to start and stop service, and limiting that power to only one service....

I want to start recording when someone starts talking, and stop recording when it becomes silent. I guess if there is stream audio processing tool like ImageMagick, so I can strip away blank sections like this:

EDIT This question is resolved by using:
$ rec -t wav - silence 1 0.1 3% -1 1.0 3% | lame - >record1.mp3

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for some pointers on a method to "transfer" the song-playing from my laptop to my PC, both running ubuntu. The use case is: I'm home listening to some song on the laptop. Then I realize how crappy the speakers are. Here's what I do *now*:
1. Stop playback on the laptop
2. Get up, go to the PC, open the music player
3. Find the same song
4. Try to find the same point in the song
5. Stop playback on the laptop
6. Start playback on the PC (the PC has good speakers)
Of course now I'm dreaming of having a "button" I push that does all this all by itself. Can anyone give me some pointers?
I'm trying to start/stop Informix along with my linux os start/stop. For this I've made a test script in order to test this but I'm facing a problem. The service is starting along with the system but when I'm stopping (rebooting) the system it doesn't run the "K10test" script.
After sistem reboot you can see that the /etc/init.d/test stop is not executed.

I'm running Debian 8.4 on a Lenovo W500 laptop and I recently upgraded from kernel version 3.2.0-4 to 3.16.0-4. Since then I encounter issues with lightdm (I suppose) which manifest themselves in two different scenarios:
1) scenario 1: lightdm fails to start.Instead of showing the graphical login screen, the system boots into terminal. Lightdm seems to be running, but I can't enter the X-Session (Alt+Ctrl+F7 doesn't work), nor can I restart the lightdm via
Code: Select all# service lightdm stop
# service lightdm start
dmesg shows the following (I've only pasted the end of dmesg):

and /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log shows errors of type

when I then try to shutdown via

the OS gets stuck on a message of the form
