How to set up Bonding on CentOS 6.2 with Linux Integration Services 3.4

Having a hard time setting up bonding to work on a vm running CentOS 6.2. LinuxICv34.iso is installed. Using three network adapters.
Prior to os install I configured the three Network Adapters with the following settings:
***Via Virtual Switch Manager:
Connection Type: External Network, Allow management os to share network adapter
VLAN ID: Unchecked
SR-IOV: Unchecked (Unsupported on host)
Extensions: MS NDIS Capture = Unchecked | MS Windows Filtering Platform = Checked
***Via VM Settings:
For all adapters:
VLAN ID and Bandwidth Management is unchecked.
In Hardware Acceleration, Enable virtual machine queue is checked, Enable IPsec task offloading is checked, and maximum number is 4096. Additionally, Enable SR-IOV is unchecked.
In Advanced Features, a Static Mac address is assigned and Enable Mac address spoofing is checked, DHCP Guard is unchecked, Router guard is unchecked, Port mirroring is None, and NIC Teaming is checked.
Mac Address for each Adapter:
Network Adapter 1: 00:25:0D:20:20:1A
Network Adapter 2: 00:25:0D:20:20:1B
Network Adapter 3: 00:25:0D:20:20:1C
After the os and LinuxICv34.iso was installed, I set up networking access on eth0 by making the following changes:
vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE="eth0"
HWADDR="00:25:0D:20:20:1A"
NM_CONTROLLED="no"
ONBOOT="yes"
BOOTPROTO="static"
IPADDR="10.1.1.110"
NETMASK="255.255.255.0"
GATEWAY="10.1.1.100"
DNS1="10.1.1.105"
DNS2="10.1.1.106"
Then:
vi /etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=MyCentOS6.MyActiveDirectoryDomain
GATEWAY=10.1.1.100
and finally:
vi /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 10.1.1.105
nameserver 10.1.1.106
I entered service network restart and was able to ping google.com so I then moved on to setting up eth1, eth2, and bond0.
DEVICE="eth1"
HWADDR="00:25:0D:20:20:1B"
NM_CONTROLLED="no"
ONBOOT="yes"
MASTER="bond0"
SLAVE="yes"
USERCTL="no"
DEVICE="eth2"
HWADDR="00:25:0D:20:20:1C"
NM_CONTROLLED="no"
ONBOOT="yes"
MASTER="bond0"
SLAVE="yes"
USERCTL="no"
DEVICE="bond0"
USERCTL="no"
BOOTPROTO="none"
ONBOOT="yes"
IPADDR="10.1.1.110"
NETMASK="255.255.255.0"
BONDING_OPTS="miimon=100 mode=balance-alb"
TYPE="Bonding"
I then went back into eth0 and changed it to:
DEVICE="eth0"
HWADDR="00:25:0D:20:20:1A"
NM_CONTROLLED="no"
ONBOOT="yes"
#BOOTPROTO="static"
#IPADDR="10.1.1.110"
#NETMASK="255.255.255.0"
#GATEWAY="10.1.1.100"
#DNS1="10.1.1.105"
#DNS2="10.1.1.106"
MASTER="bond0"
SLAVE="yes"
USERCTL="no"
Next I added file /etc/modprobe.d/bonding.conf per CentOS 6 instructions, and wrote the following line on the file:
alias bond0 bonding
I then entered service network restart and expected everything to work, but instead received these error messages:
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): bond0: link is not ready
bonding: bond0: Error: dev_set_mac_address of dev eth0 failed! ALB mode requires that the base driver support setting the hw address also when the network device's interface is open
bonding: bond0: Error: dev_set_mac_address of dev eth1 failed! ALB mode requires that the base driver support setting the hw address also when the network device's interface is open
bonding: bond0: Error: dev_set_mac_address of dev eth2 failed! ALB mode requires that the base driver support setting the hw address also when the network device's interface is open
I have tried commenting out the mac addresses, USERCTL=no and NM_CONTROLLED=no in the ifcfg files but that hasn't helped.
I'm running out of ideas... Can anyone give me some tips?
Much appreciated~

Hello ECase,
i known my answer is probably too late but maybe it can help others who are having the same difficulties. My setup looks almost like yours and I did the same steps as you did. Unfortunately with exactly the same results.
What helped in my case was to change the teaming mode.
These are the modes available in CentOS:
mode=0 (Balance-rr) –
This mode provides load balancing and fault tolerance.
mode=1 (active-backup) –
This mode provides fault tolerance.
mode=2 (balance-xor) –
This mode provides load balancing and fault tolerance.
mode=3 (broadcast) –
This mode provides fault tolerance.
mode=4 (802.3ad) –
This mode provides load balancing and fault tolerance.
mode=5 (balance-tlb) –
Prerequisite: Ethtool support in the base drivers for retrieving the speed of each slave.
mode=6 (balance-alb) –
Prerequisite: Ethtool support in the base drivers for retrieving the speed of each slave.
Mode 0 -4 worked great while mode 5 and 6 don't work at all. So if you try bonding on a CentOS guest in Hyper-V keep mode between 0 and 4
Regards

[Forum FAQ] How to upgrade the Linux Integration Service

Symptom
When you move a Linux guest virtual machine from the legacy system to Windows Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V host, you may face the incompatibility issues. The most common problems are that the mouse pointer maybe a little inaccuracies, the guest VM cannot use the
dynamic memory.
Cause
The cause may be that the integration service not compatible with the Windows Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V host.
Solution
We need to upgrade the integration service to at least version 3.5.
In this demo, we use the CentOS 5.8_x86_x64.
You can refer to the following steps to perform the upgrading.
1. Before install the Integration service you can use the following command to check the version of the installed Integration service. (Figure 1)
#su root
#/sbin/modinfo hv_vmbus
Figure 1: check the version of the installed Integration service
2. Download the Integration Service 3.5 image from here.
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=41554
3. Insert the Integration Service 3.5 image.
a. Open Hyper-V Linux guest VM console.
b. Click-> Media->DVD Drive-> Specific the Integration service image location, insert Disk.
4. Mount the image.
If automount is enable, the Integration service image will be mounted automatically. If not, please use the following command to mount the image. (Figure 2)
#mount /dev/cdrom /media
Figure 2: Mount the image
After that, we can see the image content. (Figure 3)
Figure 3: Imange content
5. Upgrade the integration service.
Use the following command locate to the current Linux Distribution Directory. In this example, we select the RHEL58. (Figure 4)
#cd RHEL58
#./upgraee.sh
Figure 4: Locate the Linux Distribution Directory
When you see the message, "Linux Integration Service for Hyper-V has been upgraded. Please reboot your system", it means the upgrading is finished.
6. Reboot your Linux system. (Figure 5)
Figure 5: Reboot the system
7. Confirm the upgrading.
After Linux boots up, use the following command to check if the upgrading is succeed. (Figure 6)
#/sbin/modinfo hv_vmbus

How to set up a Canon iR 3220-C1 with 10.7

I'm trying to print to a Canon iR C3220 with ImagePASS C1 from an iMac with OSX10.7. I've tried installing the Canon drivers, which install correctly, but then when I add the printer via LPD with said drivers (setting the queue to print) it just pauses and does not print, or seems to be sending the job indefinitely. I cannot install the imagePass drivers from the Canon website because they are no longer supported in 10.7. Anyone know how to get this dang thing up and running? For the record, there's no LP option in the additional functions menu, and HP DirectJet or whatever it's called also doesn't work. I'm trying to connect to it over the network.

We just got a new computer running OS X 10.9 Mavericks that we had to connect to our Canon ImageRunner 3220 with imagePASS-C1 printer. With the generic drives and drivers downloaded from Canon I got one of three results: 1. wont' print. 2. prints grainy black and white. or 3. won't print tabloid (11x17). I found a driver that worked. w3.efi.com/Fiery/Fiery=Support/download. I selected Canon, imageRUNNER C3220, PS Print Server Unit-C2 v1.0, All OS. Then selected the English version - Ps_drv_ImagePASSC2_iRC3220_v1.0_WIN_English.zip. I was really skeptical since the file is clearly labeled WIN for windows. But I was at a loss, so I tried it anyway. After unzipping the file I went to System preferences, Printers & Scanners, hit the + to add a printer. Selected IP to add a printer on the network then put in the following settings: Address: [the printers IP], Protocol: Line Printer Daemon - LPD, Queue: print (lowercase like PAHU said), Name: [whatever you want to name your printer], Location: [leave blank], Use: [Select Other] and navigate to the unzipped files and select EF6M6060.PPD. Then add the printer. This worked and gave us the ability to print double sided.

How to set-up Guest Client Wireless Access "PIN" with Restricted Access ???

This is my first time, and, I am not familiar with the rules.
Is it possible for someone to answer a slightly different question...
I just bought a TC and hooked it up to my cable modem. I have 3 computers that I want to configure, with the following requirements: WPA/WPA2 security all around, only the 3 computers I have to be allowed use of the TC, and, no listing of the network should appear on remote computers (i.e., a "closed network"). With these basic needs, the three computers I want to be in this network are listed below --- subject to the following ACCESS limitations:
1. A G4 iMAC (10.5.5), wired to the TC via an Ethernet cable: FULL ACCESS; i.e., shared file access, TM back-ups, HP printer access, internet access;
2. A MacBook (10.5.5), airport wireless access to the TC: FULL ACCESS, as the iMAC.
3. A (new generation) PC laptop: VERY LIMITED access --- access only to the internet, so that the TC looks only like a "wireless router." Internet access available at any time of the day or week. It would be good if this client did not have to use any of my passwords, just a "PIN." Also, I do NOT want this PC client to see my printer, and, also, to NOT see my TC base station and NOT have access to my TC/TM disks. To set this up, I entered the PC laptop name and the "MAC" address using the Airport Utility. Then, I selected the "PIN" choice for access, so that this client need not have to ever use or know of any of my passwords. After I selected the "PIN" option, the utility asked me to enter the PC client's PIN. How do I obtain the PC's PIN? This is very confusing to me, so, I apologize to you all (I'm very new at this).
Hopefully, this TC-only network concern is within the guidelines to be answered.
Thanks,
David.

Dear Smokerz,
Well, this is where I'm confused. I did use the Airport Utility. I went to the place where it asks for the PIN number. So, I made up an 8-digit number and entered it. I assumed that after I entered the number, it would prompt me to do something with the PC. But, the "Continue" button did not become highlighted. Hence, my confusion. Can you please be more specific as to exactly what I should do using the Airport Utility? The detailed instructions are vague to me, unfortunately.
Also, with respect to the PC Laptop: I only want it to have access to the internet via the TC (so that the TC acts as a wireless router). And, I want to set up restrictions for limited use of the PC: NO ACCESS to the HP printer, and NO ACCESS to the TM/TC (other than as a wireless router). As before, can you please be more specific as to exactly what I should do using the Airport Utility?
I must be missing a trivial menu item, so, again, I apologize.
Thank you,
David.

How to set up 2 iphones on a pc with one using mobileme

Hi
My wife already has a ipod so we have itunes already set up on the home PC and her work pc. We are about to activate two new iphones. I use the home pc primarily and have myoutlook running on it. Wife uses her outlook on work pc
2 iphones purchased. My iphone will be setup on home pc with outlook and plan to get mobileme. Second iphone sitting on seperate work computer with no mobileme on it. Though music is sitting on both computers and want to share the music between both iphones. Do not want to share mobileme and contacts between the iphone users.
So how do we do it. Many thanks in advance

Then you need separate Apple ID's & iCloud accounts. This is required if you want to use things like iMessage, FaceTime & iCloud and not have a mess on your hands.

How to set up iPhone 5 iOS 6 email with IMAP over SSL on a custom port?

Basically I have the same problem as this guy 5 years ago but the thread contained no useful answer. Maybe there are people out there who became smarter in the meantime? Please help me out how to get my iPhone read emails via IMAP over SSL on a custom port to the corporate server. The issue is that the iPhone only seems to work if you use the standard 993 port for IMAPS, not with a custom port as we have. I've installed the corporate root certificate in a profile, and it shows up as trusted and verified in the phone, so that should not be the issue. The mail app in the iPhone tries to connect, I can verify that from the server, but then does nothing, doesn't try to authenticate, doesn't log out, nothing is going on, and then drops the connection after 60 seconds. Repeats this every 5 minutes (as set to fetch e-mail every 5 minutes.)
Original thread 5 years ago: https://discussions.apple.com/message/8104869#8104869

Solved it by some (a lot) of fiddling.
Turns out it's not a bug in the iPhone, it's a feature.
Here's how to make it work.
DOVECOT
If the IMAPS port is anything other than 933 (the traditional IMAPS port) the iPhone's Mail App takes the "Use SSL" setting on the IMAP server as 'TLS', meaning it starts the communication in plain text and then issues (tries to issue) the STARTTLS command to switch the connection to encrypted. If, however, Dovecot is set up to start right away in encrypted mode, the two cannot talk to each other. For whatever reason neither the server nor the client realizes the connection is broken and only a timeout ends their misery.
More explanation about SSL/TLS in the Dovecot wiki: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/SSL
So to make this work, you have to set Dovecot the following way. (Fyi, I run Dovecot 2.0.19, versions 1.* have a somewhat different config parameters list.)
1. In the /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf file make sure you specify the inet_listener imap and disable (set its port to 0) for imaps like this:
service imap-login {
inet_listener imap {
    port = --your port # here--
inet_listener imaps {
    port = 0
    ssl = yes
This of course enables unencrypted imap for all hackers of the universe so you quickly need to also do the things below.
2. In the /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf file, make sure you set (uncomment) the following:
ssl = required
This sets Dovecot to only serve content to the client after a STARTTLS command was issued and the connection is already encrypted.
3. In /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-auth.conf set
disable_plaintext_auth = yes
This prevents plain text password authentication before encryption (TLS) is turned on. If you have also set ssl=required as per step 2, that will prevent all other kinds of authentications too on an unencrypted connection.
When debugging this, please note that if you connect from localhost (the same machine the server runs on) disable_plaintext_auth=yes has no effect, as localhost is considered secure. You have to connect from a remote machine to make sure plain text authentication is disabled.
Don't forget service dovecot restart.
To test if your setup works as it's supposed to, issue the following (green) from a remote machine (not localhost) (I'm using Ubuntu, but telnet and openssl is available for almost all platforms) and make sure Dovecot responds with something like below (purple):
telnet your.host.name.here yourimapsportnumber
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE STARTTLS LOGINDISABLED] Dovecot ready.
Most importantly, make sure you see 'STARTTLS' and 'LOGINDISABLED'. Then issue STARTTLS and hopefully you see something like this:
a STARTTLS
a OK Begin TLS negotiation now.
(The 'a' in front of STARTTLS is not a typo, a prefix is required by the IMAP server in front of all commands.)
Close the telnet (with 'a logout' or Ctrl+C) and you can use openssl to further investigate as you would otherwise; at the end of a lot of output including the certificate chain you should see a line similar to the one below:
openssl s_client -starttls imap -connect your.domain.name.here:yourimapsportnumber
. OK Pre-login capabilities listed, post-login capabilities have more.
You can then use the capability command to look for what authentication methods are available, if you see AUTH=PLAIN, you can then issue a login command (it's already under an encrypted connection), and if it's successful ("a OK Logged in"), then most likely your iPhone will be able to connect to Dovecot as well.
a capability
* CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE AUTH=PLAIN
a login username password
* CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE SORT SORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT CHILDREN NAMESPACE UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 CONDSTORE QRESYNC ESEARCH ESORT SEARCHRES WITHIN CONTEXT=SEARCH LIST-STATUS
a OK Logged in
POSTFIX
Likewise, you have to set Postfix to wait for STARTTLS before encrypting the communication.
1. You have to delete the setting smtpd_tls_wrappermode=yes from /etc/postfix/master.cf and/or /etc/postfix/main.cf, if it was enabled. This will mean Outlook won't be able to connect any more because it requires a TSL connection without issuing STARTTLS as per Postfix documentation (haven't tested.) In my case we don't use Outlook so I didn't care. Outlook + iPhone + custom SMTPS port are simply not possible together at the same time as far as I understand. Pick one to sacrifice.
2. Require encrypted (TLS) mode for any data transfer in /etc/postfix/main.cf:
smtpd_tls_security_level = encrypt
3. Authentication should only happen while already in encrypted (TLS) mode, so set in /etc/postfix/main.cf:
smtpd_tls_auth_only = yes
Don't forget postfix reload.
To test if this works, issue the following telnet and wait for the server's greeting:
telnet your.host.name.here yoursmtpsportnumber
220 your.host.name ESMTP Postfix (Ubuntu)
Then type in the EHLO and make sure the list of options contains STARTTLS and does not include an AUTH line (that would mean unencrypted authentication is available):
ehlo your.host.name.here
250-STARTTLS
Then issue starttls and wait for the server's confirmation:
starttls
220 2.0.0 Ready to start TLS
Once again, it's time to use openssl for further testing, detailed info here http://qmail.jms1.net/test-auth.shtml
CERTIFICATES
You also need to be aware that iOS is somewhat particular when it comes to certificates. First of all, you have to make sure to set the following extensions on your root certificate (probably in the [ v3_ca ] section in your /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf, depending on your openssl setup), especially the 'critical' keyword:
basicConstraints = critical,CA:true
keyUsage = critical, cRLSign, keyCertSign
subjectKeyIdentifier=hash
authorityKeyIdentifier=keyid:always,issuer:always
And then on the certificate you sign for your mail server, set the following, probably in the [ usr_cert ] section of /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf:
basicConstraints=CA:FALSE
keyUsage = nonRepudiation, digitalSignature, keyEncipherment
subjectKeyIdentifier=hash
authorityKeyIdentifier=keyid,issuer
subjectAltName = DNS:your.domain.name.here
issuerAltName=issuer:copy
Please note, the above are results of extensive google-ing and trial and error, so maybe you can omit some of the stuff above and it still works. When it started working for me, I stopped experimenting because figuring this all out already took way too much time. The iPhone is horribly undocumented when it comes to details of its peculiar behaviors. If you experiment more and have more accurate information, please feel free to post here as a reply to this message.
You have to import your root certificate into your iPhone embedded in a profile via the iPhone Configuration Utility (free, but only available in Windows or a Mac; details here: http://nat.guyton.net/2012/01/20/adding-trusted-root-certificate-authorities-to- ios-ipad-iphone/ ), after having first added it to Windows' certificate store as a trusted root certificate. This way the Utility will sign your certificate for the phone and it becomes usable; if you just add it from the phone it will be there but won't be used. Using a profile has the added benefit of being able to configure mail settings in it too, and that saves a lot of time when you have to install, remove, reconfigure, install again, etc. a million times until it works.
Another undocumented constraint is that the key size is limited to a max of 4096. You can actually install a root certificate with a larger key, the iPhone Configuration Utility will do that for you without a word. The only suspicious thing is that on the confirmation screen shown on your iPhone when you install the profile you don't get the text "Root Certificate/ Installing the certificate will add it to the list of trusted certificates on your iPhone" in addition to your own custom prompt set up in the iPhone Configuration Utility. The missing additional text is your sign of trouble! - but how would know that before you saw it working once? In any case, if you force the big key certificate on the device, then when you open the Mail App, it opens up and then crashes immediately. Again, without a word. Supposedly Apple implemented this limit on the request of the US Government, read more here if you're interested: http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/blogs/kamtec1/archive/2012/10/13/limitation-of-appl e-devices-iphone-ipad-etc-on-rsa-key-size-bit.aspx .
IN CLOSING...
With all this, you can read and send email from your iPhone.
Don't forget to set all your other clients (Thunderbird, Claws, etc.) to also use STARTTLS instead of SSL, otherwise they won't be able to connect after the changes above.

How to set up myself as family share organizer with my own Apple id when someone else has gotten a new phone and used my Apple ID on it and set up family share for themselves?

its my Apple ID and it's basically been hijacked on a device I dont own and someone else has been set up as family share organizer in my own Apple ID and I can't seem to do anything about it.

You really need to get the apple id straightened out before you start, or you will pay the price forever!   You have a couple of options. I assume your dad is cooperating with this project. I think you are probably right about using his apple account.
Make sure you have established the second e mail address and that to works.
Log onto apple.com, and in the upper right, log into the account. Once in the accout, click on the area where you can change you data, and add the second email address.    Apple wil verify the adress by send it an e mail, and won't do anything further until you respond to an e mail sent to that address, so watch for it.
After the address is verified, on your accout page, make that address your primary address contact from apple. That way if apple sends confirmations for apps and things, they will go to the new address, and your mom won't see them. Then set the pad up using the same aple Id as your dad. Remember, you have not changed the apple id or the password, you have only changed the e mail address for contact.   ( you can change it back after the surprise)
The other suggestion... I have given a coule of pads to folks, and one of the real fun parts for them and for you is o
Ending the box, and doing the set up. It is a great way for them to learn enough to use it. Press the buttons etc. pick their own apps. You can gift her all the apps you want, and she can learn how to download them herself.
I gave a pad to mom in law, and did pretty much what you are planning, and at the end of the day, having it all set when she openied it made it harder for her to learn, rather than easier.
But you are doing a god thing, and I am sure she will enjoy the pad.

How to set the icon for the entire application with JFrame.setIconImage

I set the icon on the main frame using JFrame.setIconImage(). The icon is shown properly in the main frame.
If more JFrames are opened from the main frame, the newly opened JFrames also show the icon.
However if JDialogs are opended, in some cases the icon set on the main frame is shown and in other cases the coffee cup.
What is JFrame.setIconImage() expected to do? Setting the icon for a single JFrame or the entire application?
How can I set the icon for the entire application?
How can I set the icon for JDialogs?
Thank you

In order for your dialogs to use the same icon as the frame, you must parent the dialogs to the frame which has the custom icon.

How to set owner-only access file permissions both on Linux and Windows

Hi everybody.
I have the following problem. I need to store some private user information in file system. So I need to set owner-only access permissions for some directory in user home. I did not find API for doing this. As I understand this is platform specific thing. Could anybody tell me how can I do this both on Linux and Windows?
Thank you in advance.

More ideas just came back to me (of something I did before)
Each OS requires a different control.
For Windows you will need to set the .policy file for each user (a pain if you have more than a dozen of clients) granting access (R or RW) to files/directories.
Then you have to write some native code (access via JNI) to access/modify your authorization.
A more professional solution that I used was J-Integra (other similar tool exist).
Basically it is a bridge between Java and COM. It magically give you access to the COM API from Java (and vice versa).
In my case it was to read/write/modify Winword documents transfered between PC and server.
From memory you have to run the com2java.exe to build the bridge (classes in Java language) between the 2 families. Compile those classes and you have a "driver" for the COM (Microsoft Objects).
Here I must confess my ignorance on Microsoft.
Those COM objets must give you some easy/integrated access to the API for LDAP or Microsoft Active Directory Service (for centralize control with more complex setup).

Forms: How to set a maximum size in Text Fields with automatic size

¡Hi!
When I set a text field on my forms and I use automatic size for te text that the user can write, if the user don't need more space than the field size, when the text appears, Adobe Acrobat Pro always set the text-size to 14 or higher. How can I set a maximum size for that text? For example... 12 or 10...
Thank you very much,
Best regards from Spain,
David.

Ok. If I use a single line text field, changing the height of the field seems to be a simple way to solve the problem, but... what should I do when the fields are multi-lineal?
Thanx for your quick answer.

More than 1 name/value pair can be entered for each item of the column link: just separate them with commas (','), and ensure that the order of the names and values matches.
