You need 3rd party repositories. For these two you need EPEL.
Upgrade to 6.5.

I've installed CentOS 6.4, for which Emacs 23 is available; but I'd like to have Emacs 24. I've looked at rpmforge and epel, but neither seem to have Emacs 24 already packaged; and I've searched for every combination of emacs + 24 + centos without success.

While I could, of course, just do the ./configure && make && make install dance, I don't like having software installed that's not in the packaging system. I'd appreciate any pointer to a prepackaged Emacs 24, or failing that, a good tutorial on how to package software correctly for CentOS.

I'm trying to install Centos 6.4 under Virtualbox on a Mac running Lion. I downloaded the 2 iso DVD files and set Virtualbox to boot from DVD 1

When I start the vm it puts out a lot of messages then asks me what kind of install I want to do. I select the basic install and it tells me it found the media ( the iso DVD file I downloaded) puts out a message about the anaconda ( I think) install starting then goes to a screen with the Centos 6 logo and appears to do nothing. No more messages appear.

Should I be using the minimal iso install file?

I have installed Windows XP, 7 and 8 under Virtualbox and they all work. I also installed Ubuntu but didn't like it so I removed it and thought I would try Centos

Does anyone know what might be going on and how to get it working?

I have a problem with unix-samba password sync. It just doesnt work, when i use smbpasswd it changes only samba password, and not the unix password. In logs i cant find any error about passwd. Samba ver is 3.6.9-151.

Here is [global] in my smb.conf

[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
security = user
encrypt passwords = yes
unix password sync = yes
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd chat = *New password* %nn *new password* %nn *success*
debug level = 100
passwd chat debug = yes

I want to set up dovecot on a CentOS server. I did this before, some time ago, but it seems to have become much more complicated, involving postfix, amavisd-new and clamav (for spamassassin).

What puzzles me is the role, if any, of procmail and .procmailrc in this new system.
Is procmail no longer used/needed?
