Re: Re-post, with additional questions/infomation: Traffic monitoring/logging question

2002-03-05 Thread Jean-Francois Dive

Hellow,

The problem need to be split in 2:

- where to take the information from
- how to analyse them.

To get a good accounting, especially with a NAT'ed situation, simply
use some accounting rules in iptables on your firwall. From there,
you need some scripts that 'll collect the information and storge
them in the approriate way. 

IPAC does it but does not store it properly, cricket need to be 
extended by adding a script, same for MRTG.

Hope that help,

JeF

Check out the D-Link DGE-550T

It appears to be supported in the 2.4.x kernels (maybe 2.2 but I don't 
have that to check) and it lists for only $89.
I've actually been thinking of trying these myself so, if you get them 
and they work well, I'd love to hear about it.

Re-post, with additional questions/infomation: Traffic monitoring/logging question

2002-03-05 Thread Auke Rensen

Hi list(eners),

Thanks for the previous suggestions.
Despite this suggestions, we still can't find a suitable solution.

We have looked at NTOP , IPAC and MRTG.
MRTG does not give us the right information in the right for, so this 
ain't an option.

It seems that both other utils need some in depth knowledge to let them 
fit our situation.

Let me try to explain the situation a bit better.

We've got a firewall witch connects multiple LAN's to the internet.
On both LAN's there are public services, witch are accessable from the 
internet via NAT rules.

We need to track and log all possible traffice and analize it on a 
daily, weekly and monthly basis, so we can devide te cost of the connection.

Here are the questions about IPAC and NTOP.

IPAC:
1.) Does IPAC support DNAT, SNAT and forward rules?
2.) Does anyone have /know some documentation on IPAC
3.) Has someone succesfully implemented this in a similar situation?

NTOP:
1.) Does anyone know how to log and store the collected data?
2.) Does anyone know how to insert specific source/destination rules?


I hope someone can help us further.

Anyway, thanks in advance.

radius mysql no log activity

Dear Radius users,

Currently runnign that set up in a 4 http server setup, we find it's
working excellently for our needs. 

Besudes the fact that the LVS 'jsut plain works' and that you can add
servers whenever you want, you also get to call a machine in your

The "A" (ADDRESS) RDATA format doesn't use a "preference" value:

wwwINAwebserver1
wwwINAwebserver2
wwwINAwebserver3

Note that this is not "load balancing". It is not figured out by actual
load or capacity. It just does a "round robin" and is often called "load
sharing". Also note that outside DNS caches used for many lookups will
defeat the "balancing" so make sure your time-to-lives are low.

For the ftp from the outside network mybe I should deactivate the reverseDNS

Ah, yes. That one comes _very_ close to what I need. Thanks.

BTW, ethereal I already know, but it's not too useful when only the 
 payload of packets are of interest and you have to analyze ~ 20 MB of 
 data out of ~ 30 different, mostly simultaneous, connections.

Seguramente intentas hacer el telnet al nombre de la máquina, y al

te va lento.

La solución sería meter el nombre de tu máquina en la zona de resolución
inversa.

Otra opción, para detectar si ese es realmente el problema, es meter en

Re: slow telnet and ftp connections

2002-03-05 Thread Matthew Lambie

I've found that some applications rely on the /etc/hosts file else they are
really slow to kick in. swat is a great example of this. Make sure your
windows machines are referenced in there and see if that helps it.

I have pseudo-static IPs for all my machines (constant DHCP), so it's not a
problem, but if they have dynamic IPs then you'd have to work out how to
update the hosts file automatically, which I have never done.

Hope this helps,

Matt Lambie

Re: RE : BGP4/OSPF routing daemon for Linux? Hardware?

2002-03-05 Thread Jean-Francois Dive

The main question is to know what you'll do with your BGP. Will this
be connected to the internet and get the full Routing Table ? If yes,
plan to get a decent amount of memory (i'd go for 256Mo of memory). 
Cpu wise, if you have to switch 100Mo full duplex, you'll need some
ressources to handle it, so dont plan on a too small one. 
So, at the end, a standard Off the market PC should be ok as the actual
configs are quite impressive now.

Hope that help,

Re: Load balancing web servers

2002-03-05 Thread Matthew Lambie

Will the nameserver send out webserver1, webserver2, webserver3,
webserver1... etc as the first, second, thrid, fourth requests, in a
cycle-like fashion?

Never knew that... thanks ;)

Your answers are squid in httpd-accelerator mode (
http://www.squid-cache.org ) or linux virtual server (
http://www.linuxvirtualserver.org/ ).

Hope you find this useful.

Re: Spammers hammering our mail servers

Are these spammers really trying to relay or are they trolling for 
addresses to spam by trying every name in a dictionary?

I get logs like these:

I don't have a solution for the above.  Maybe the solution is a patch 
to exim that causes an increasing delay after each verification 
failure.  This would have to be coupled to a configuration which 
limits the number of concurrent connections exim will accept from 
an IP address.  (Available via the smtp_accept_max_per_host 
directive).

Have you had a look at the exim documentation, web site and 
mailing list etc?
