Major Warnings after Yum Update in Log Watch
Hi, I am a newbie to this forum and to linux in general. I rent my own dedicated server and had it secured with a cPanel Service Package
+ MailScanner package from ConfigServer. I am greener than green, but have been trying to learn as much as I can when I can. Server: Linux CENTOS 5.4 x86_64 standard Been reading my daily warning messages for sometime now and until last Friday I never really saw any differences in data. On Friday there was an update as logged in logwatch along with hundreds of warning similar to these: Quote:
UDP IN and OUT would help. I did this in csf firewall settings in WHM. This removed most of the warnings from my service checks but no effect on my logwatch logs. Is disabling port 53 from UDP In and Out the right thing to do? I have everything automated and get yum updates regularily but have never had this issue before. Here are a few lines of the yum update: Quote:
Appreciate any help or guidance to allow me to resolve/understand this issue better. |
Hi. Your server was 5.3 until the mentioned time, and then it upgraded it self to 5.4 :-) CentOS 5.4 was released just few days ago, so this update (rather upgrade) is legitimate.

Sorry for my ignorance, but I'm a trying... Update: Turns out I was still looking through my saved log files when I said they went back to Friday when the update occurred. The logs turn over every two days it looks like. I counted 6798 warnings during these two days (25-26). I also noticed that not all the warnings are the same. Quote:
