Re: [Gluster-users] GlusterFS 3.1 on Amazon EC2 Questions

2010-10-22 Thread Craig Box
Hi Craig,

2. You can read from the back end, all writes should go through the Gluster
 mount point.


This contradicts what I have read in the past.  If a file is out of date on
the current node, you won't get the updated version, so you are always
supposed to read from the mount point.  Right?

[Gluster-users] WAN replication (EC2)

2010-10-20 Thread Craig Box
Hi all,

Some months 
agohttp://gluster.org/pipermail/gluster-users/2010-June/004920.htmlI
was asking about running GlusterFS on EC2, across availability zones.

I read in May:

Continuous WAN replication is scheduled for 3.2 release (Q4 of this year).


Is this still the case?

Our use case is that we would like to be able to replicate GlusterFS in EC2,
across availability zones, and preferably without the resulting performance
degradation when each node has to contact all the others to check the files.
 Basically, our specific use case - web uploads - is that read speed is most
important, and getting an old file is not important.

Is this likely to be addressed by the work coming in 3.2?  Jeff Darcy, have
you anything new and cool to report?

Cheers
Craig

[Bug 648721] Re: page allocation failure on machines under heavy network load

2010-09-27 Thread Craig Box
Reproducing: haven't tried, but it seems from other posts that any heavy
network load might cause this kind of error.

However, as per Andrew Morton at
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12135, it might end up being
just a badly written warning message.

Bug#595817: ITP: libpam-ssh-agent -- PAM module providing authentication via ssh-agent

2010-09-10 Thread Craig Box
 How is it different from libpam-ssh?

libpam-ssh lets you log into a local console (terminal, GDM, etc) with
an SSH passphrase that unlocks your local private key.  It then starts
an SSH agent and adds your key to it.

libpam-ssh-agent allows you to SSH to a machine with agent forwarding,
and use the agent to authorise PAM transactions, most notably sudo.
The upshot of this is that I can go:

  machine1:~$ ssh -A machine2
  machine2:~$ sudo su -
  machine2:/ #

I am not prompted for a password to sudo, because libpam-ssh-agent
authorises me against my forwarded agent.  If I do not have agent
forwarding, PAM will follow its usual chain of methods for asking for
a credential, generally asking for a password:

  machine1:~$ ssh machine2
  machine2:~$ sudo su -
  Password:

 How will it interact with ssh-agent which starts from Xsession.d/?

If you start your own SSH agent, and add your private key, a standard
configuration would be to use this PAM module to allow you to sudo
with your agent (no password), the same way you could then SSH to
other servers with your agent (no password).

[Puppet Users] Re: Installing packages that use dbconfig-common on Debian

Thanks Paul; I don't have a problem getting the preseed onto the
system, it's just that dbconfig-common totally ignores the fact you've
tried to preseed it out of existence. :)

I may have to take this to the Debian bugtracker.

[Pdns-users] Resolving an external CNAME

2010-07-12 Thread Craig Box
Hi,

I realise this issue has been covered on the list, but (a) a couple of years
ago, and (b) with slightly different symptoms.

On Amazon EC2, I have a PowerDNS server [1] set up for an example.local
domain.  I also have recursion enabled and set to the EC2 virtual
nameserver, 172.16.0.23.  For simplicity's sake, this all runs on the same
port.

Everything works as expected - example.local names resolve from the gmysql
backend, and other names are passed on to Amazon for resolution.  (You need
to use the EC2 name server to resolve .amazonaws.com addresses to their
RFC1918 addresses - if you resolve externally, you get the public IP which
NATs to your machine.)

Anyway, I have added a machine database.xyzzy.eu-west-1.rds.amazonaws.com,
which is a multi-AZ deployment (60 second TTL for failover to a second
server if the first is unreachable).  I have set up a record for
data.example.local which is a cname to this address, but querying it gives
me an NXDOMAIN (/not/ a SERVFAIL).

I have seen mention that you need to have a '.' suffix for records pointing
to external names, but this doesn't seem to make a difference.

Can what I want to do here, be done?  From what I can piece together, all I
should have had to do is enable recursion (which was enabled anyway).

Craig

[Puppet Users] Adding external users, and home directories that depend on them, in the same run

2010-07-11 Thread Craig Box
I am using Puppet to configure Ubuntu machines as LDAP clients, which
makes a variety of external users available to my machines, and then
attempting to create home directories with SSH keys for some of those
users that I have just 'added'.  (At this point we are not sharing/
automounting /home.)

The basic order of action is this:

- install libnss-ldapd, which depends on/starts nscd/nslcd
- install ldap-auth-config  various config files
- run auth-client-config, which sets up the PAM config files to
include LDAP users (1)
- restart nscd (2)
- create homedirs for LDAP users

If I run these steps manually, at point (1) I can get results from
'getent passwd' that include LDAP users, but I can't su to an LDAP
user.  If I then restart nscd — it's not enough to just invalidate the
cache — I can then su.

I have a carefully constructed set of require/notify resources which
causes all the right actions to happen, but every time I run Puppet
(puppetd --test), I get told the user does not exist:

err: //homedirs/Homedirectory[example]/File[/home/example]/ensure:
change from absent to directory failed: Could not set directory on
ensure: Could not find user example at /etc/puppet/modules/homedirs/
manifests/init.pp:37

At this point though, I *can* su to the example user.  If I then run
puppet again, it sometimes fails on a second time through, but oddly
always works by the third.

At point (2) I have a Service resource to restart nscd, and have even
caused it to Exec a sleep of up to 15 seconds afterwards - no change.

This leads me to wonder if the state of the users that exist is
calculated/cached at the beginning of puppet's run, and won't be
updated during, if something happens to change the state.  Is this
likely, and if so, what could I do to work around it?

Thanks
Craig

[Puppet Users] Re: Adding external users, and home directories that depend on them, in the same run

2010-07-11 Thread Craig Box
A small update: turns out nscd is optional, so I've set apt to not
require recommends, and now I can get this sequence:

- install libnss-ldapd, libpam-ldapd and nslcd
- install ldap-auth-config  various config files
- run auth-client-config, which sets up the PAM config files to
  include LDAP users (1)
- create homedirs for LDAP users

Failure case is otherwise still the same.

Re: [Gluster-users] GlusterFS performance questions for Amazon EC2 deployment

2010-06-30 Thread Craig Box
OK, so this brings me to Plan B.  (Feel free to suggest a plan C if you can.)

I want to have six nodes, three in each availability zone, replicate a
Mercurial repository.  Here's some art:

[gluster c/s] [gluster c/s] | [gluster c/s] [gluster c/s]
|
   [gluster s]  |  [gluster s]
  [OCFS 2]  |  [OCFS 2]
  [ DRBD ] --- [ DRBD ]

DRBD doing the cross-AZ replication, and a three node GlusterFS
cluster inside each AZ.  That way, any one machine going down should
still mean all the rest of the nodes can access the files.

Sound believable?

 So for now, until WAN is officially supported, Keep it working within the

 Hi all,

 Spent the day reading the docs, blog posts, this mailing list, and
 lurking on IRC, but still have a few questions to ask.

 My goal is to implement a cross-availability-zone file system in
 Amazon EC2, and ensure that even if one server goes down, or is
 rebooted, all clients can continue, reading from/writing to a
 secondary server.

 The primary purpose is to share some data files for running a web site
 for an open source project - a Mercurial repository and some shared
 data, such as wiki images - but the main code/images/CSS etc for the
 site will be stored on each instance and managed by version control.

 As we have 150GB ephemeral storage (aka instance store, as opposed to
 EBS) free on each instance, I thought it might be good if we were to
 use that as the POSIX backend for Gluster, and have a complete copy of
 the Mercurial repository on each system, with each client using its
 local brick as the read subvolume for speed.  That way, you don't need
 to go to the network for reads, which ought to be far more common than
 writes.

 We want to have the files available to seven servers, four in one AZ
 and three in another.

 I think it best if we maximise client performance, rather than
 replication speed; if one of our nodes is a few seconds behind, it's
 not the end of the world, but if it consistently takes a few seconds
 on every file write, that would be irritating.

 Some questions which I hope someone can answer:

 1. Somewhat obviously, when we turn on replication and introduce a
 second server, write speed to the volume drops drastically  If we use
 client-side replication, we can have redundancy in servers.  Does this
 mean that GlusterFS client blocks, waiting for the client to write to
 every server?  If we changed to server-side replication, would this
 background the replication overhead?

 2. If we were to use server-side replication, should we use the
 write-behind translator in the server stack?

 3. I was originally using 3.0.2 packaged with Ubuntu 10.04, and have
 tried upgrading to 3.0.5rc7 (as suggested on this list) for better
 performance with the quick-read translator, and other fixes.  However,
 this actually seemed to make write performance *worse*!  Should this
 be expected?

 (Our write test is totally scientific *cough*: we cp -a a directory of
 files onto the mounted volume.)

 4. Should I expect a different performance pattern using the instance
 storage, rather than an EBS volume?  I found this post helpful -
 http://www.sirgroane.net/2010/03/tuning-glusterfs-for-apache-on-ec2/ -
 but it talks more about reading files than writing them, and it writes
 off some translators as not useful because of the way EBS works.

 5. Is cluster/replicate even the right answer?  Could we do something
 with cluster/distribute - is this, in effect, a RAID 10?  It doesn't
 seem that replicate could possibly scale up to the number of nodes you
 hear about other people using GlusterFS with.

 6. Could we do something crafty where you read directly from the POSIX
 volume but you do all your writes through GlusterFS?  I see it's
 unsupported, but I guess that is just because you might get old data
 by reading the disk, rather than the client.

 Any advice that anyone can provide is welcome, and my thanks in advance!

Preventing outgoing local mail being delivered to certain domains

2010-01-26 Thread Craig Box
I have a staging server running Postfix, which I want to only set up
to deliver mail to example.org.  This machine is running Mailman, and
gets lists copied back from the production server - we want to be able
to test on this server safe in the knowledge that if someone
accidentally sends mail to the wrong list, we won't accidentally send
any test messages out to anyone outside our test domain.

All mail is sent from this server to a smarthost for delivery.  The
smarthost is the same one that is used in production, and will accept
mail for any destination.

I have set up

    relay_domains = example.org
    smtpd_recipient_restrictions = reject_unauth_destination

This correctly causes the server to only relay for example.org when
addressed by SMTP.  However, using mail(1) on the server, Postfix will
happily deliver for all addresses.  I would like to somehow restrict
this to the relay_domains only, and have it bounce all messages to any
other recipients.  Is this possible, or is there another way to
achieve my goal, given my constraints?

Regards,
Craig

[Mono-list] Connecting to Google via SSL

2009-12-21 Thread Craig Box
Hi all,

I'm having trouble coaxing Mono to connect to Google via SSL (specifically
to do OpenID verification).  Because this is a security protocol, I don't
want to implement the always return true certificate checking policy in my
application.  I've imported the Mozilla root certificates, and I've tried
getting the certificate with certmgr -ssl, but there just seems to be
something wrong with it that Mono doesn't like.

Running a0.exe (from

creates a WebRequest, I get this result:

 On mainstream bug http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=156952 is
 closed as obsolete, but with Hardy I can't use the VPN stuff with
 network manager if I use static IP.

Upstream has moved to 0.7, but Ubuntu has not yet.  0.7 is more a
development-in-progress branch than a completely stable one, afaik.

There is also a new plugin architecture in 0.7 - OpenVPN and Cisco VPN
support has been ported, but PPTP has not.  Therefore upgrading to 0.7
would break PPTP VPN support.

Follow https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/network-manager/ubuntu.0.7

Re: [Bug 5364] Re: Can't use static ip address with network-manager (and thus no VPN connections menu for static users)

2008-02-28 Thread Craig Box
I haven't spent much time running 7.10 so I can't comment for sure on the
behaviour there, but my understanding is that if you set a static IP
address  in /etc/network/interfaces, your networking will still work, but
you won't get the wireless selection and VPN abilities of NetworkManager.

Is this not the case?  Did the NM in gutsy change to support this, and if
so, is this referenced anywhere onlinE?

 Craig: I setup static IP using the nm-applet, not by editing the

 Now if I just installed ubuntu, and logged in, and have to configure
 static IP without changing config files, I would use System -
 Administration - Network to configure IP. Now if you say that the
 app does not support static IP, when why do I have the ability to
 configure it in the first place?


I believe that System, Administration, Network, and the NM applet, both call
into the same place - which edits /etc/network/interfaces.  I will have to
have a look when I get some time - someone else may be able to confirm or

It has never been possible to use a network card configured statically with
NetworkManager. If you set it static in /etc/network/interfaces then NM just
doesn't see it.

It is supported in 0.7, which is not final, and not yet in Ubuntu.  Have a
look at http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-676992.html where you
are invited to test it.

[Bug 113622] Re: PPTP plugin for network manager sets wrong routing table entries

2008-02-11 Thread Craig Box
There is no real upstream work being done on this plugin.

Someone with some programming bent needs to adopt it as a pet project
for the required changes to really be implemented, I'm afraid.  Perhaps
a Google Summer of Code sponsorship might happen, or Red Hat/Canonical
might decide they have a commercial interest in good Windows VPN support
on their client OS.  Until then we're at the whim of those who are
prepared to do the work themselves.

Re: [Bug 5364] Re: Can't use static ip address with network-manager (and thus no VPN connections menu for static users)

2007-11-13 Thread Craig Box

 Static IPs are often required by users and admins in corporate networks,
 also some home users may be statically assigned in some special
 configurations. Developers and consultants that move between development
 networks and corporate networks need the flexibility to change their
 configurations regularly and keep multiple profiles.

 I see no valid reason why it should not be supported, nor why network
 manager fails altogether when it is used. It is basic networking, in
 fact Static support should have been implemented before DHCP.


Static IP addresses are supported in NM 0.7, which is looking likely to be
finished in the Hardy timeframe.

We are all very aware of the reasons for supporting static IP addresses: the
upstream developers targeted NM at a very specific use case (laptop users
with wireless networks), and then added VPN support so they could connect
back to the Red Hat private network via vpnc.  As the time has gone on, the
project has got good enough to be used for some other purposes, but not
all.  The answer is they know, but there's just not enough people working
on it to do everything at once.

You can't use /0.  That means match no bits and makes the route

The /x notation means CIDR, i.e. 192.168.0.0/24, rather than
192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0.

If you want a route to only one IP address, use /32. Otherwise, check

[Bug 113622] New summary

2007-09-29 Thread Craig Box
OK.  I've raised this upstream as
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=481620.

I think I understand the problem now:

NetworkManager expects the server you are connecting to to be behind your
default gateway, so when it creates a default route over the server, it
creates a host route to that machine, via the GW.

However, if the server is ON your local network, then it creates a route
incorrectly via your gateway.

Is this a correct summary?

Try adding the route with 'route add' from the command line.

I suspect that it will fail because you're trying to add a route using a

According to the http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/howto-diagnosis.phtml
page, the implication is you cannot get GRE connectivity.  Please check

[Bug 113270] Re: Created PPTP connection does not appear in VPN connect menu

2007-06-16 Thread Craig Box
Thank you for your debugging!

The old version of the plugin package can let you set up a connection
without a PPP connection type.  This is fixed in the newer version -
there is always a default, so you can't ever create new connections that
are unset. As gconf is a per-user system, I'm not sure if there is a
good way of having, for example, the post-install script of the package
set the ppp-connection-type for connections that don't have one already?

What version are you running, and if not the most recent package, are
you able to test (links to edgy/feisty packages are listed earlier in
this bug report) and see if the behaviour remains?

[Mongrel] upload_progress with --prefix

2007-06-13 Thread Craig Box
Hi,

I think I may have found a bug: When starting Mongrel with --prefix,
upload_progress doesn't work.  When starting without, it does.

Is this something I can possibly work around in the Rails code?  The app
uses url_for throughout.

Bug#427725: Allows you to run sa-compile without gcc installed

2007-06-05 Thread Craig Box
Package: spamassassin
Version: 3.2.0-2
Severity: minor

If you don't have gcc installed, sa-compile will fail:

cc -c   -D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE -DTHREADS_HAVE_PIDS -DDEBIAN
-fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -I/usr/local/include -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -O2   -DVERSION=\1.0\ -DXS_VERSION=\1.0\ -fPIC

/bin/sh: cc: command not found
make: *** [body_0.o] Error 127
command failed! at /usr/bin/sa-compile line 275.

It will also fail to compile if you don't have libc6-dev installed.

/etc/cron.daily/spamassassin searches for re2c and sa-compile, but not gcc.
Also, README.Debian.gz only suggests you require 're2c', and makes no
mention of needing gcc.

The problem was originally found in another directory; I just unpacked
it in /tmp because I needed somewhere different.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp$ apt-get source libmail-spf-perl

mail-spf-perl-2.004/debian/changelog

This is the first package I've ever had this problem with.

I suspect the problem is that the files in the debian/ directory inside
the orig.tar.gz have the incorrect permissions, so when the diff is
applied, it also sets them 444.

Building new PPTP plugin for old NetworkManager (was: Latest tarball w/PPTP)

2007-06-04 Thread Craig Box
Hi Drew and Igor,

You can build the SVN PPTP plugin against 0.6.x versions of
NetworkManager - Antony has kindly provided a configure option that
allows you to use the old dbus parameters, rather than the new VPN dict
structure.  Run ./configure with 

 --enable-nm-vpn-dbus-old

to enable this.

If you're building against 0.6.2, you will also need to remove 'mss'
from the connection info struct. Edit src/nm-ppp-starter.c and comment
out around line 1512:

+   /* NetworkManager 0.6.2 doesn't have the mss in the connection
+* info packet.
DBUS_TYPE_UINT32, mss,
+*/

The configure option defines NM_VPN_USE_OLD_DBUS_INTERFACE, which
enables the old code instead of the new.  I am not sure if OpenVPN has a
similar flag, but you could use this as the basis for a patch, or revert
to an earlier version of the source if you wished.

You may also find

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 5364 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/5364

If you are not using NetworkManager to manage your interfaces, you will
not get the option for a VPN connection.

You need to be using DHCP, and not have the interface described in
/etc/network/interfaces.  This means you cannot currently use VPN
plugins with a statically addressed interface.  This is a known bug (bug
5364).

The package for PPTP is in the Universe repository, and you have to
enable it before you will get access to it.
