Centos 5 Live CD, Rescue CD or Workstation

Have you ever try CENTos 5 Live CD? I had tried it. This Centos 5 Live Cd can be use as rescue cd and workstation cause it based on CentOS 5.0 i386 distribution.
The following software that include with it :
  • OpenOffice.org 2.0.4
  • Firefox 1.5.0.10
  • Thunderbird 1.5.0.10
  • Gaim-2.0.0
  • Scribus-1.3.3
  • xchat-2.6.6
  • k3b-0.12.17
  • Gimp-2.2.13

And for rescue, there is another software or tool :
  • Full set of LVM and RAID command line tools
  • QTParted
  • Nmap and NMapFE
  • Graphical Traceroute
  • samba-3.0.23c with cifs kernel support to connect to Windows file shares
  • System Log Viewer
  • GUI Hardware Device Manager

Unfortunately, in first release, this Centos Live CD doesn't hvae installer like Fedora Live CD.  And i have a problem when using it as workstation, i can connected to network just for a while. But, when i restart network service it worked but for a while and then it was drop. You have a same problem or solution ? Please tell me.  I will be appreciated it.

Last, if you want to use root account, use this password : 12qwaszx.

Please, try it.

Extend a LVM partition after increasing its virtual disk on Virtualbox

And  this is a website  to convert Gb into Mb (–resize takes Mb as input, 200Gb = 204800Mb).

Word 2003 “This document couldnot be registered. It will not be possible to create links from other documents to this document.”

One day when i open a document in Ms. Word 2003, I get the message “ This document could not be registered. It will not be possible to create links from other documents to this document .” After searching using google.com and open some website, i have one solution. It’s only one maybe two step that i have to do. I open my services panel and activated my DCOM Server Process Launcher . And, it works, the message no longer show again when i open my document using word 2003. That’s all. I hope it works to you too, if you have same problem. Nb: Open services panel, just open Run (Start–> Run) and type services.msc then Enter .

Website Using HTTPS Protocol

Last week, I changed protocol of my website from http to https. There were steps that i had to do. First, I installed openssl package and mod_ssl # yum install mod_ssl openssl Then, I configured the openssl  and created certificate # cd /etc/pki/tls/certs # make server.key # openssl rsa -in server.key -out server.key # make server.csr # openssl x509 -in server.csr -out server.crt -req -signkey server.key -days 3650 # chmod 400 server.* After that, I changed configuration of httpd/apache #nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf DocumentRoot "/var/www/html" ServerName www.server.world:443 SSLCertificateFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/server.crt SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/server.key Last, I restarted the webserver #service httpd restart That's all what i did last week to change my website protocol from http to https.
