I haven't used either.  OpenGFS hasn't released anything yet
(you have to get it from CVS) but they want to fix a bunch of
security issues they've found and tidy up the code before
releasing it.

Sistina's version has moved on from the GPL version, but there
is some concern that they may be violating the GPL and that
their code might still contain the security problems that
OpenGFS is fixing.

I have nothing to do with either project, so I don't know all
the details.  Have a look at their web sites.

Sistina's GFS web site is http://www.globalfilesystem.com/ which
redirects to http://www.sistina.com/products_gfs.htm.

A network block device would work better, but it's not good
enough to lump a bunch of nbds together, since if you do that
you still need ONE machine looking after the RAID.  i.e. you
have a single point of failure.

I'm not very familiar with radiator, but we have been using ic-radius

Radius-Server als flexible as Radiator?

2001-10-10 Thread Marc Haber
Hi,

we are currently using radiator, a commercial radius server written in
perl. Since we are about to need a new license and I don't appreciate
using commercial software, I am looking for a free replacement.
However, my colleagues claim that there are no free radius servers
that are as flexible as radiator is. Especially, we seem to rely on
radiator's capacity to base decisions on different fields in the
database, and not only on the user name. We also seem to use username
rewriting quite a lot.

I don't have a clue about radius, so I probably got some of the
terminology wrong.

Any hints will be appreciated. Is there a free radius server that is
as flexible as radiator is?

Greetings
Marc

RAID is definitely not what you want in this situation. Look at CODA which
is a massively buffered network filesystem originally designed to work in
disconnected operation, managing reentry etc. the relevant kernel support
is in the main 2.4 kernel tree these days. striping coda filesystems
together may be possible, but I have never played with it.

That should be your problem. The kernel is missing a driver for your
filesystem. Do

apt-get install mkinitrd

It will get you mkcramfs and ash as well IIRC. Then change
/etc/mkinitrd/config
to list essential modules (like ext2 and perhaps your ethernet driver).
Then execute (assuming your kernel is called 2.4.9)

mkinitrd /lib/modules/2.4.9 > /boot/initrd-2.4.9

and put the initrd line back into lilo.conf pointing at the new initrd
file

Rerun lilo and reboot.

That should help.

   Please don't post to the mailing list using HTML mail. Impossible to
read in all text mail clients. :-(

   Is your problem with name resolution or routing? Can you ping to an
outside ip but not to a name or do both ways give you problems?

Things to check:
  Are your routes correct after ppp comes up?
  Are your running a firewall? is it blocking packets?
  Can you ping your side of the ppp interface after it comes up?
  Can you ping your ISPs gateway?

A nice test to check if your machine isn't an open relay is opening a
telnet session to mail-abuse.org from the machine you want to test.

Although it doesn't seem to work now:

Maildir with indixes

2001-10-10 Thread Christian Hammers
Hello

Does anybody knows a Maildir variant that supports index databases to 
allow faster searching for e.g. subject/to/from headers? 

I'm looking for a way to store my old mail and archives and maildir seems
to be the best fitting to search with grep/find but an index e.g. 
a berkeley db2 file that is in addition to the normal files would be
better while staying compatible to "normal" maildir usage with mutt.

This "single point of failure" made me wonder... is there such thing as a
network filesystem that can simultaneously write to two (or more) remote
servers?

For example, a write(2) or fprintf(3) to a file wouldn't be successful
unless it was succesfully written to two (or more selected) remote
fileservers. Anything like that? (Hopefully open source.) Can any NFS or
SMB/CIFS versions/protocols support that?

Maybe this special network filesystem could be configured, for example, to
have five remote fileservers. Every data written to this mounted
filesystem would have to successfully write to all these filservers. Then
when reading, it could just grab from any.

Then if one fileserver was down (even temporarily), then all the other
fileservers (all four) would have to queue a message about the data and
task and some heartbeat between fileservers could alert it when back up
and then make sure that the particular filesystem is properly updated.

What do you all think about this?

 limited knowledge of.

 The 2.4.9 kernel package that I am running, uses an initrd image,
 and I grabbed the kernel source, and the .config for the debian
 kernel. (from apt-get source ).

 I patched in the freeswan code, and did the following:

[wolf: /usr/src/linux]# make-kpkg kernel_image


 Everything went fine, the package was dropped in /usr/src, the problem
 is when I installed it (using dpkg -i), it did not put an initrd
 image in /boot/ but the System.map config and vmlinuz image were all
 there. 

 Crossing my fingers, I made an entry for my new image in the lilo.conf
 (removing the initrd reference) and rebooted, but no luck: heres
 the last few lines from my kernel panic:

Linux IP multicast router 0.06 plus PIM-SM
klips_info: ipsec_init: KLIPS startup, FreeS/WAN IPSec version: snap2001oct9b
request_module[block-major-3]: Root fs not mounted
vfs: Cannot open root device "301" or 03:01
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:01


 Any help on what I might be doing wrong, My hunch is that it has to do with
 no initrd image (since that's what I noticed missing). But I guess it could
 also be the freeswan source, since it's a snapshot, the latest stable
 source (1.91) could not compile with my 2.4.9 kernel, and the freeswan
 people told me to grab a snapshot (apparently there are known issues with
 2.4.9 <-> 1.91.

Maildir with indixes

2001-10-10 Thread Christian Hammers

Hello

Does anybody knows a Maildir variant that supports index databases to 
allow faster searching for e.g. subject/to/from headers? 

I'm looking for a way to store my old mail and archives and maildir seems
to be the best fitting to search with grep/find but an index e.g. 
a berkeley db2 file that is in addition to the normal files would be
better while staying compatible to "normal" maildir usage with mutt. 

bye,

-christian-

This "single point of failure" made me wonder... is there such thing as a
network filesystem that can simultaneously write to two (or more) remote
servers?

For example, a write(2) or fprintf(3) to a file wouldn't be successful
unless it was succesfully written to two (or more selected) remote
fileservers. Anything like that? (Hopefully open source.) Can any NFS or
SMB/CIFS versions/protocols support that?

Maybe this special network filesystem could be configured, for example, to
have five remote fileservers. Every data written to this mounted
filesystem would have to successfully write to all these filservers. Then
when reading, it could just grab from any.

Then if one fileserver was down (even temporarily), then all the other
fileservers (all four) would have to queue a message about the data and
task and some heartbeat between fileservers could alert it when back up
and then make sure that the particular filesystem is properly updated.

What do you all think about this?

Thanks,

  Jeremy C. Reed

HA mailserver (smtp, pop3, imap, imap/ssl)

2001-10-10 Thread Saku Ytti

Hello,

We are looking replacement for SunCluster (2*e450) mail server and would
preferally like to do it with x86/linux cluster software can be commercial
or free.

What software are currently used to build these? Requirment is that 
the media is replicated and locking functions properly so we can pop
machines in/out and all user accounts/all mail still works only if
one server is pop out load on other machines just increses slightly.

There can't be any SPOF.

ppp problem

2001-10-10 Thread Robert Cruz



Hello everyone:
 
I am new to debian and I am having problem pinging 
outside my remote server when I dial-out. I've used the pppconfig
to setup my dial-out. When I do an ifconfig ppp0 
my ip addresses match but it says that Point -To-Point running NOARP MULTICAST. 
I can used my dial-out for Windows 2000 and my old FreeBSD box. My 
/etc/resolv.conf has my DNS addresses and my isp domain name. I cannot ping, for 
example, www.google.com, etc. If there is 
anything else that needs setting up or I have overlooked anything else let me 
know. Thanx
