Hi,

Yes you can build a firewall cluster based on Mandrake CookerFirewall
with the following rpm:

vrrpd ( Virtual router redundancy protocol )
or
ipvsadm ( Virtual server ) 
heartbeat and mon, see the good site (
http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/HighAvailability.html )

You can find those rpm on the cooker-firewall distrib.

But for the moment, the cluster configuration process is not included in
the Web admin tool.

any ideas are welcomed depending on your needs

RE: [Cooker-firewall] Port forwarding problem with RC1

2001-04-24 Thread Michael Segulja

Actually, I found out what the problem was.  First,
/etc/rc.d/init.d/iptoip starts, and then /etc/rc.d/init.d/lvs starts,
and writes over what iptoip did.  I just got rid of lvs and it works
fine now.

 I just downloaded RC1, mainly because I was hoping it would fix the

 It still doesn't work.  When the firewall boots, I see the message

after
 that it says it's using /etc/sysconfig/lvs.  The iptoip.xml file is
 correct, and has the correct information in it, but it seems
 /etc/sysconfig/lvs is overriding iptoip.xml because there are no port
 forwarding rules when I do ipvsadm -L.
 

Hi there,

I don't where did you download the iso from but I'm trying here this on
the RC1 and the port forwarding look to be working fine. The ipvsadm -L
shows the TCP forwarding just fine.

my firewall is here 192.168.1.178 (external network and internal one
192.168.2.178) and 192.168.2.84 is test client.

from the 192.168.1.0 network (other pc, of course) I can type:

Re: [Cooker] DrakConf cups autoinstall feature

2001-04-24 Thread Eaon

Well then I clearly disagree.  I just happened to be clicking around.
There is no printer attached to this machine and I don't feel the need
for it to print.  I was just investigating the tool.  If I can't
investigate it because part of the tool is not installed, I'd rather be
told that than have it just presume that it knows what's best for me.
Tres Microsoft, I say.

What if I was just bad with the mouse and meant to hit the item above or
below printing and just lucked out and accidentally clicked it instead?
Shouldn't I at least get a dialog asking me if I really want something
new installed on my machine?  I mean, if the answer is indeed yes, I
will only ever be asked the question once, so it's not like it's a
really big inconvenience to confirm that choice.  And what if I'm on a
dialup connection.  The cups drivers are several megabytes in size.  Is
it right for it to just take off and start downloading files without a
hello and how are you?  I'd rather it ask me and make sure I'm ready to
do that before it goes tying up my phone line for several hours.

No, I stand by my statement.  Software should never be installed without
first some confirmation from the user.

[Cooker] Why?

2001-04-24 Thread Mattias Dahlberg

Hi!

I'd really like to know why MandrakeSoft never did anything about the fixed
font in KDE, nor the minimum font size in Konqueror.

Besides, did you consider that your default icon arrangement would look bad
on non-English desktops?

These are all *small* things that were easy to fix. Linux-Mandrake 8.0 is a
nice distro with Apache, php, mysql, proftp and all working fine, but you can
never under-estimate the first *visual* impression a new user gets.

After installing 8.0 this is how Mandrake's homepage looks in Konqueror:

http://www.du.se/~mda/mdk8konq.png

It would have been easily fixed by setting the minimum font size to at least
10, preferably 11. I told you that *many* times during the betas.

This is how the icons are arranged the first time you open KDE on a
non-English desktop:

http://www.du.se/~mda/mdk8icons.png

The Trashcan has naturally moved to the left, leaving the user with an
over-all impression of randomly scattered icons.

And this is the most appalling thing: The fixed font. I'm sure there's a good
reason why you decided to ignore the numerous requests to change the fixed
font. This is how KWrite looks, out-of-box in Linux-Mandrake 8.0:

http://www.du.se/~mda/mdk8fixed.png

Please, I can't sleep at night. I need to know why MandrakeSoft did this,
despite all the suggestions made on the Cooker mailing list. Those little
things are oh so important, you know.

[Cooker] Samba browsing failing (due to security level)

2001-04-24 Thread John Allen

Samba browsing fails in security level 3, this is due to the secure tmpdir.

msec does not fix the problem, as the /etc/profile.d/tmpdir.sh checks
the SECURITY evn var, not SECURITY_LEVEL. SECURITY_LEVEL
is set in /etc/profile as is modified by msec, but SECURITY is set
in /etc/sysconfig/system, and is not affected by msec.

Also if SECURE_TMP is not set, and security level is less than
3 then TMPDIR, and TMP are not set at all.

[Cooker] Big bug for small installations

2001-04-24 Thread Stefan Siegel

Hello Pixel et al,

Exercise:
=
  I 've tried twice to install LMDK 8.0 on a small device (600 MB harddisk 
  with 70 MB /). Both Installations ended with errors while writing in 
  /etc/sysconfig saying / device full even when df -h showed lots of 
  free megs unused on it.

Problem:

  A friend of mine just mailed me why (he also tried a small device install): 
  The root partition runs out of inodes, as the number of created devices 
  (in /dev) has rapidely increasd ...

Solution:
=
  You have to ckech in DiskDrake, while formatting, if the assigned 
  mount point is / and if so use mke2fs -N to increase number of inodes.

P.S.: /tmp and /var were also own partitions like /usr and /home

 Hi!
 
 I'd really like to know why MandrakeSoft never did anything about the fixed

I already posted about this issue and i already fixed it in mozilla-fonts 7mdk
For some odd reasons, chfontpath  didn't set mozilla-fontss:unscaled in 
/etc/X11/fs/config
As a result , browsers (mozilla, netscape , konqueror) and some progs (Kwrite ) have 
problems
to scale fonts (mostly helvetica,courrier and times ) correctly .
Reinstall it and see if the problem is still .

Rearrange it if you don't like the way it is done.

Re: [Cooker] Why?

2001-04-24 Thread fjtmurray

i agree...sending out a distribution with ugly, and nearly unreadable fonts 
is a major mistake for a company that puts out the otherwise best distro for 
linux newbies...nor would it make sense for mandrake to respond that the 
fonts can be easily set to look better by the user...if that the case, it'd 
certainly have been easy for mandrake to correct this before announcing the 
distro ready...

i suspect that many new users will load up mandrake, see how ugly the text on 
their favorite websites look, and return to windows, telling others that 
linux just isn't yet ready for use...

 These are all *small* things that were easy to fix. Linux-Mandrake 8.0 is a
 nice distro with Apache, php, mysql, proftp and all working fine, but you
 can never under-estimate the first *visual* impression a new user gets.

 After installing 8.0 this is how Mandrake's homepage looks in Konqueror:

 http://www.du.se/~mda/mdk8konq.png

 It would have been easily fixed by setting the minimum font size to at
 least 10, preferably 11. I told you that *many* times during the betas.

 This is how the icons are arranged the first time you open KDE on a
 non-English desktop:

 http://www.du.se/~mda/mdk8icons.png

 The Trashcan has naturally moved to the left, leaving the user with an
 over-all impression of randomly scattered icons.

 And this is the most appalling thing: The fixed font. I'm sure there's a
 good reason why you decided to ignore the numerous requests to change the
 fixed font. This is how KWrite looks, out-of-box in Linux-Mandrake 8.0:

 http://www.du.se/~mda/mdk8fixed.png

 Please, I can't sleep at night. I need to know why MandrakeSoft did this,
 despite all the suggestions made on the Cooker mailing list. Those little
 things are oh so important, you know.

 Hmmm from a quick test it seems to me that before any prompt is

 column. But any more qualified people here willing to answer?
 

In theory, that's the correct behaviour. stdout is buffered, so you only
get output when buffers are flushed. That happens on a newline or
if you manually call fflush(stdout). A libc implementation can choose
to flush buffers on program termination, but do not trust on that.

Perhaps some shell do a change in the behaviour of buffering for file
descriptor 0 when running yout program (ie, set fd0 unbuffered).

So, in short:
- without fflush() nor \n, behaviour is undefined, but usual is to not
print anything.
- with fflush() of \n, you should get the same kind of output on any shell.

[Cooker] AA does not work in Russian locale

2001-04-24 Thread Andrej Borsenkow

I attempted AA on clean Mdk8 install, Russian locale (koi8-r), imported
Windows fonts (from WinME, strict checking), usual XFree86 fonts fonts +
URW fonts.

It does not work (and never did). The only visible russian font is fixed
width - everything else (all proprtional fonts) disappear, it means, most
menus, labels etc etc are not visible. Even english texts look funny (icon
names are in bold cursive), I believe it has something to do with encoding
...

Well, it may be a general problem of Qt/KDE or mandrake packaging problem
(lack of proper cyrillic fonts). Dunno. But, again, I reported this
already ... as often, there was no reply :-( I am ready to provide any
debug info, but it very easy to see - you do not need to know russian; it
is obvious that everything is screwed up :-)

Re: [Cooker] MDK 8.0 impressions

2001-04-24 Thread Francisco Alcaraz Ariza

Juan, 
Thank for your interest, I don't remember if I explain what is my pcmcia 
model; Is a Ovislink Fast Ethernet 10/100 Base-TX Ethernet PC CARD P/N: 
LNR-100N

The laptop is a Toshiba with  two toPIC95-B pcmcia slot.

Harddrake detect a Realtek Semiconducor RT8139 (B/C) Cardbus Fast Ethernet 
mod: rtl8139

lsmod: pcmcia-core   41920  0 [ds i82365]

lspci -vvv gives me:
pcilib: Cannot open /proc/bus/pci/15/00.0
lspci: Unable to read 64 bytes of configuration space

The problem is that the 15 directory doen't exist, you can find 
/proc/bus/pci/00 and inside the files: 00.0 02.0 02.1..0c.0

A grave sound shows that the card is not well recognized



I don't know if this could help you to find what the problem is.

Re: [Cooker] Collaborative downloading of 8.0 ISO Images

2001-04-24 Thread Gary Lawrence Murphy

Well, first off, this is _not_ a TCI tool, it is an OpenCola invention.
All we did was code the dead-stupid website that brokers the connection
for you.  All the real magic and innovation belongs to OpenCola.

As for your suggestions, bingo again! Many of these are in the real
release or planned for the future release, and please understand that,
despite what some kind soul posted to MandrakeForum, this is _not_ the
real release of the software, it is not a launch, it is just a fast
scratching of the Mandrake download itch.

Chunk granularity and interim checksums will be in the future product,
the actual download will begin as HTTP but migrate to swarmcast as
nodes become available.  As for my broker web-site, this too is going
to need some refactoring and design work before it can really scale.

As for turning ideas into code, if you hunt down the swarmcast
Sourceforge site, I believe there is a call for participation.

[Cooker] Alsa on a21p?

2001-04-24 Thread Robert Nicholson


Anybody got Alsa working with the a21p?

I get output from amixer and I can unmute and set volume levels but when I
play an Mp3 in XMMS it asks me to check that my sound card is
configured correctly.

When the music plays in the KDE media player I hear nothing but the meter
ticks over ok.





[Cooker] Wrong rendering of fixed-width TTFs (imported from Windows)

2001-04-24 Thread Andrej Borsenkow

Clean new install Mdk8.0, fonts imported from WinME.

The size of bounding box (is this the proper word) for Courier New is
wrong. The font size itself is correct, but the distance between lines is
almost twice as large as font size itself. Just try to select this font in
konsole and you'll see what I mean.

The rendering of Lucida console is wrong as well. When you select text
with mouse, you get stripes between lines, as if it were empty space.
Even worse is some programs that try to invert text - they create excactly
the same stripes that makes reading impossible.

As far as I can remember, it was always so ...

[Cooker] cdrom detection freeze during mdk8 install

2001-04-24 Thread Matt Van Mater

my installation of mdk8 freezes during the second step when it tries to
detect/initialize my cdrom. (which is a teac 40x or model 504E) mandrake 7.2 
detects the drive fine, but all the mdk8 betas had trouble finding it...  i 
have tried expert/text install mode, but no matter what cdrom driver i tell 
it to use (in the first steps) it still sits there in an endless seek (light 
goes on) when it tries to access the drive.

sorry if i'm not posting correctly i am not familiar with any of your 
standard procedures (if you have any).  i am not on the cooker mailing list, 
so to get more info, you would have to reply to this email to contact me.

1.  Installation trouble-free, except:
Mouse detection still difficult to capture mouse in dialog.
Have to select network config twice - LAN and modem (after completing 
one the damn thing *still* thinks you've finished - how about a
done button?).

2.  Throughout install, drives recognised as hd{e,f,g,h}.  hde goes up to
hde21.  However, on first boot, kernel panic!  Can't find hdf5 to boot
from.  Of course, with this accursed CONFIG_BLK_DEV_OFFBOARD=y
kernel config, the drives are now hd{a,b,c,d}.  OK, I passed boot
param root=/dev/hdb5 to get in, but then I had to do file system
repair to correct fstab hd values.  First I had to remount / rw.  Then
after `vim /etc/fstab`, exit and reboot, I had to do file system
repair *again* to do `mknod /dev/hda{17-21} b 3 {17-21}`.  The
installer had already created /dev/hde{17-21}, which are now not
needed.

This should not be necessary.  I don't mind your crackpot idea of
using the CONFIG_BLK_DEV_OFFBOARD=y kernel config, as long as you
clean up afterwards.

3.  For the first time I see anti-aliased fonts - but they're *horrible* -
I'll have to do some work on those.  That terrible A D MONO font (all
caps) must have been at the top of the list somewhere, because until I 
rebooted again, that was the KDE task bar font! - imagine!

Overall, there is pleasing evidence of a lot of good work done, but, as 
with 7.2, it is spoilt by the lack of attention to first impressions.  I 
think the freeze/fix/release period should be doubled in future to try to

Given that a Pentium-II is roughly equivalent to a

[newbie] Grip

2001-04-24 Thread michael

I just spent half an hour using grip to grip some mp3's. 8.0 fresh install.
Right. The mp3 directory created has all these .ogg files, all of uniform 
size (128) and unplayable on xmms. The only thing I changed from the stock 
setup was the encoding bitrate under configmp3options.

None too happy.

[Cooker] Where did the system icons go in KDE 2.2?

2001-04-24 Thread Vincent Meyer

Hello -

Installed 2.2.0 alpha of KDE off sunsite.uio.no today, and when restarted 
kds the desktop icons for floppy, printer, and zip had disappeared.  If I go 
into the properties tab and try to set them, and select system icons from the 
pull-down, there aren't any!

Where do I find more info on cookfire?  Remember reading about but
didn't get anything when I did a search of Mdk's site.
