[interfaces + route] My new firewall doesn't forward packages

2002-06-04 Thread Davi Leal

Hi there,

We have an ISP: email, web, ftp, dns and radius servers. I'm trying to
replace an old firewall (2.0.x kernel) with a new one (2.4.18 kernel). I am
using the 'mimic' strategy, that is to say, getting the same routing table,
... etc.

*The problem*:  The current new firewall configuration can not forward any
package. Note that iptables is stopped and all policy (INPUT, OUTPUT 
FORWARD) are set to ACCEPT. I think it is because of the routing table.



I have eth0 and eth1. With the below /etc/network/interfaces' file I get two
lines in the router table.

Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric RefUse
Iface
194.224.7.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0   U 0  00 eth0
194.224.7.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0   U 0  00 eth1

# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)
# The loopback interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The first network card - this entry was created during the Debian
installation
# (network, broadcast and gateway are optional)
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
 address 194.224.7.9
 netmask 255.255.255.0
 network 194.224.7.0
 broadcast 194.224.7.255
 gateway 194.224.7.1
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet static
 address 194.224.7.10
 netmask 255.255.255.0
 network 194.224.7.0
 broadcast 194.224.7.255



Adding some routing rules to the previous 'interfaces' file (see attached
file), to mimic the old firewall routing table I get the below:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric RefUse
Iface
10.128.114.20.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH0  00 eth1

0.0.0.0 194.224.7.1 0.0.0.0 UG0  00 eth0


In the old system I have the same but without these two lines below. Is this
the cause of the system not forwarding any package?. How could modigy the
'interfaces' file to remove these two lines?. See attached the
'/etc/network/interfaces '.

194.224.7.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0   U 0  00 eth0

I dont think it is a particular good idea to do it like this with the ip
address. But if you do not have a transit network from your provider, you
can delete the both automatically added routed. I guess at least for eth0
you must use an netmask of 255.255.255.128?

Perhaps you should describe how your network is layed out.

kernel quota control with LDAP

2002-06-04 Thread Thedore Knab

I want to use kernel level quotas with LDAP to simplify adminstration of my mailserver.

Can this be done ?

Currently, I am keeping track of uids in both an /etc/passwd on the
filesystem and an LDAP database.

What would allow me to simplify this ?

I have 2021 users on a new mail system with Courier IMAP server, with Postfix, 
Squirrel Mail, and LDAP.

My account looks like this in LDAP:

dn: uid=tknab2,ou=mailaccounts,dc=mycoll,dc=edu
uid: tknab2
cn: Theodore Knab
mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
uidNumber: 1100
gidNumber: 1001
mailHost: imap.mycoll.edu
homeDirectory: /var/imap/mycoll/tknab2
mailMessageStore: /var/imap/mycoll/tknab2/Maildir
mailQuota: 2S, 2C
mailbox: tknab2/Maildir/
objectClass: qmailuser
objectClass: couriermailaccount
userPassword: {cyrpt} notreal
accountStatus: active
mailForwardingAddress: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

On the IMAP server my account looks like this:

imap:/var/imap# cat /etc/passwd | grep -i knab
tknab2:x:1100:1001::/var/imap/mycoll/tknab2:/bin/false

imap:/var/imap# repquota -a  | grep -i tknab
tknab2--   60692   8   9  11699 0 0

I think that the schema I choose allows for:

loginshell: /bin/false

Re: Xeon on Linux

2002-06-04 Thread Thedore Knab

Seem to work fine here.

I am running three Xeon Netfinity Servers X250 series.

2 have the 2.4.18 kernel running with ext3 while one is just an almost 
default install of Redhat.

None of them had any problems so far.

But, for the price/performance the dual P-III 1G would be better.

 How does Linux support Xeon CPU currently?
 I am considering to use dual P-III 1G or single Xeon 2.2G architecture.

 Any suggestions appreciated.

Do you have IP forwarding turned on?
