Recently, bonding module requires IPv6 module. There are two possible solutions. The first is to define zeroconf to off, by adding the following line to /etc/sysconfig/network :
NOZEROCONF=yes
The other method, which actually disables IPv6 is to insert into /etc/modprobe.conf the following line:
options ipv6 disable=1
That should do the trick. You will need to restart/reload your modules, of course.
I have been extremely busy for the last few weeks and couldn’t find time to update my blog, so apologies are in place. I am sorry, and I will add later this week several tips and tricks about BASH scripting, which might save time and effort for those of you who use if for more…
Working with RH Cluster quite a lot, I have decided to create an online store of customer agents/scripts. I have not, so far, invested the effort of making these agents accept settings from the cluster.conf file, but this might happen. Let the library be! Oracle DB script/agent: Although I discovered (a bit late) that RH…
When running newer operating systems as Docker containers on older host systems—such as Ubuntu 20.04 or CentOS 7—a compatibility issue arises due to a new glibc call (clone3) not translating correctly to the older glibc (<=2.34) of the host system, resulting in the call being incorrectly translated, and blocked. One workaround to this issue involves…
Weird behavior of my Orinoco_pci wireless network interface. On my home 802.11b network, I get performance of about 600KB/s, instead of 1.1MB/s, which should be the approximate speed to expect to. Not only that, but browsing to external websites and the likes (I compare using wget), I get speeds of <7KB/s, and sometimes decreasing to…
First and foremost – Happy new year! Technically speaking, it has gone rather well so far, this new year. Although it was actually yesterday, I’ve managed to add another feature to my little laptop, and support the Fujitsu Keys on my linux – this time, with no errors, no problems, and without killing SWSUSP2 –…
I migrated to dnsmasq just yesterday, and discovered that a Windows 7 machine was hammering the server with messages like this: Feb 1 11:06:07 dns dnsmasq-dhcp[1078]: DHCPINFORM(eth0) 192.168.1.77 91:de:87:7b:e5:a8 Feb 1 11:06:07 dns dnsmasq-dhcp[1078]: DHCPACK(eth0) 192.168.1.77 91:de:87:7b:e5:a8 winpc Googling a bit, I found out this link (with an explanation). The solution is fairly simple. Add…
