I've installed RPMforge and Smart Package Manager.
I had to create my own Centos 5.5 channels to sync yum repos and smart channels.
Here's the Centos 5.5 channel file for Smart:
Just shut Smart PM down, copy this file into /etc/smart/channels, and restart smart.
Smart should then detect the new channels (repos) for Centos 5.5
Update your channels in Smart, and you should then have yum repos and smart channels both in sync, looking at the same set of packages.
Copy this to CentOS-Base.channel, and add it to the /etc/smart/channels directory.

There is this educational institution that we manage and are looking for changing all the workstations for students from windows xp to some flavor of Linux. We used windows environment all through and management was easier with windows domain controller. And the same kind of package is what I am looking at. Spacewalk is one that is suitable for large installations and management and it is looks like what we need. But it is for RH based distributions like RHEL, CentOS, and Fedora. But I am also looking at Ubuntu or some Debian based as option. And need to know if something similar is available for these distributions? If not then we will look at CentOS and Fedora.

I cannot move emails delivered to Inbox to B, I can however move them to A.
When attempting to move them to B I get error:OVERQUOTA, not enough disk space.
This account is barely using 10% of allocated space, and using webmail I can move the email. but it will not show in icedove.
I have checked that subfolder is indeed subscribed, and I have no problem moving email around in other accounts.

I try also comp.os.linux.misc@googlegroups.com, but can't subscribe too.
I have a number of Ubuntu machines running. Our NAS is FreeNAS. I am typing this on an Ubuntu 10.04 desktop that is successfully connects to an NFS share on the FreeNAS box every day. In addition, we have 3 10.04 server machines that also stay connected to the share successfully, Yesterday, I installed a new 10.04 server machine using IP 192.168.0.11. Everything works except connecting to the NFS share. It always returns with: mount.nfs: mount to NFS server '192.168.0.13:/mnt/amrd0s2/public-NFS' failed: timed out, giving up
Here's what I have checked: I can ping 192.168.0.13 (obviously) The NFS export mask is set to 192.168.0.0/16. The other machines are all on the same subnet as this problem machine (192.168.0.*) nfs-common, nfs-client, and portmap are all installed and running correctly. portmap is running correctly showmount -e 192.168.0.13 give the proper response:
Export list for 192.168.0.13: /mnt/amrd0s2/public-NFS/ 192.168.0.0 iptables isn't even installed (these machines are segregated in a private network behind a hardware fire all) There is nothing related to NFS is any of the syslogs. dmesg has one entry: [6.025966] FS-Cache: Netfs 'nfs' registered for caching which is insignificant. how to at least debug the nfs-client short of downloading the source and actually stepping through the code.
I have a Fedora 11 Server which act like a Internet gateway for our LAN. I have my own iptables andt squid. We daily starts up & shuts down the server. Since last few days I am facing a unique problem. When we starts the server we are able to brows the Internet on the Server but from the client machine we are unable to do so but we can ping any internet sites/Static IP from the Client machines. After 2-5 times of startup and shutdown of the Server. We are able to browse internet from the client machine.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've just set up NIS on my home network (probably not necessary on this scale, but I wanted to try it out). The server and the clients are all running Debian Lenny. I've got it up and running and have my NIS users on the server logging into graphical desktops on a client machine.My problem is this: The users cannot access a lot of services that are native to the client because they're not members of the right groups (for example, they have no sound because they're not members of the audio group). I figured it would be easy; just add users to groups with the usermod command but the response I get is that the user in question is not present in /etc/passwd. If I understand NIS correctly I'm not supposed to add my users to /etc/passwd on the client machines.

From reading around the web, it looks like Firefox's "quick view" of an RSS feed sometimes lets you "Subscribe to this feed using" Thunderbird. For whatever reason, that's not an automatically-added option with my setup (FF 3.5.something + Thunderbird 3.0.something on Linux), so I figured I could just "Choose Application...", point at the Thunderbird binary, and be on my way. Not so -- nothing appears to happen. If I run thunderbird from the command line as
thunderbird "http://path/to/feed" the app launches as normal. If it's already running, absolutely nothing happens. Is this impossible? Is there some mojo I can pass Firefox to tell it that Thunderbird exists? Should I just suck it up and copy/paste the URLs manually?

It responds to ftp clients on another machine (openSuse 11.1) within the same subnet (192.168....) and delivers lists of directories, changes directories, etc. The clients (gftp, jftp, filezilla, dolphin--tried them all) are unable to upload to the server (after a successful log-in on the server as a user, not root) with an error message that seems to indicate an inability to open the file on the client machine. Also logged in as user on the client machine. From FileZilla:

Response:553-Can't open that file: Permission denied

What am I missing in permissions? The directory where the JPG is located belongs to the user who is signed in, its in his home directory. The users on the two machines are not the same.
I'd like to access a samba/SSH server which itself is connected to a VPN Server, therefore acting as a VPN Client. As soon as the VPN Connection is established, samba and ssh connections to this VPN Client get a timeout. But not all of them.
To get a better understanding I made an overview. The first one is a general network overview, without any VPN Connection, the second one with the VPN Connection established.
Network Overview without VPN
I can access the server in several ways:
*From the router via ssh (router runs ipcop with busybox)
*From the laptop via ssh (putty via Windows 7)
*From the laptop via samba
*From the internet via ssh (port forwarding to the ssh server)
Everything is working as it should.
Now the server that runs ssh and samba service connects to a VPN Server on the Internet, this is also working fine. Now it gets weird. The only samba/SSH connection that is still working is ssh directly from the router to the server. Everything else gets a timeout:
*From the laptop via ssh (putty via Windows 7)
*From the laptop via samba
*From the internet via ssh (port forwarding to the ssh server)
Network Overview with VPN active
Why is that? It seems from the little understanding I have of vpn and networking, that incoming packages (like samba request from the laptop) don't get send directly back over eth0 but over the vpn connection. This seems somewhat logic, BUT ssh from the router is still working. Why from the router and not from the laptop? I really can't get my head around it.
Configuration Overview
tldr; One Client acts as VPN Client and samba/SSH Server. As soon as the VPN Connection is established samba/SSH stop working, but only partially.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have set samba domain. I am able to add win 7 and xp clients. All r working fine. But I have a doubt. If I shutdown the samba pdc server, I should be able to login the client machine with the same profile (which I had, when the samba pdc server was up). Now , if I shutdown the sambapdc, I am able to login the client machine, but new profile is being created. How to avoid this.
How to say to samba that the client machine should load the same profile which was created when the server was up and running. I do not want the client machines to create new a profile when the server is down bcoz in windows domain, when the windows domain is shutdown, the client machines are able to login with the same profile (the profile which was created when the domain was up). I wish to have same thing in samba pdc also.

To pre-empt some obvious solutions; I don't wish to use VNC, the lag drives me nuts, and I'd like to keep my gnome session running on the client machine if possible. If it's not possible, that's fine; it just seems like there'd be a way to do it?
