Why not have a single firewall?  If you want to have two firewalls make an HA 
cluster out of them.  If you are interested in physically separating the 
subnets then I would just put extra interfaces on the firewall (basically 
multiple DMZs).

- assume subnet is 1.1.1.0/24
- all machines behind firewall get 1.1.1.0/24 subnet 
- firewall gets 1.1.1.2/24 assigned to it's external interface (side facing
  router)
- firewall does proxy arp for all IPs in the subnet on it's external interface
- if you like, firewall does proxy arp for 1.1.1.1 on it's internal interface
  and then machines shouldn't even have to change their gateway
- firewall rules are written as you require.  Even though the subnet
  1.1.1.0/28 doesn't really exist you can write your firewall rules in that
  way

The firewall will probably need an IP on it's internal interface, you might be 
able to use the same IP on both inside and outside interfaces.  If you're 
using 1.1.1.1 as the gateway and proxy arping for it on the internal 
interface then I have a suspicion that no IP would be needed.

You can avoid doing any proxy arp if you setup the routing correctly on your 
router at 1.1.1.1.

If these computers are Internet hosts (webservers, mailservers, etc.) I prefer 
to stick with private IPs on the hosts and to use DNAT to forward traffic to 
the machines.  On another note, shorewall is an excellent framework for 
managing iptables rules, it will even manage proxy arp for you when you need 
to use that.

Re: Postfix: Multiple recipients alias?

2003-09-26 Thread DI Peter Burgstaller
Hi there,

one way that comes to mind is to run incoming mail for this account 
through a
filter of some sort (mailfilter, procmail etc.) that would check for 
the sender
address.

This, of course, would also let spam emails through that "pose" as 
local senders but are, in fact, fake.

Just my 2 cents...

Re: Postfix: Multiple recipients alias?

2003-09-26 Thread Pulu 'Anau
I just did something similar for one of our customers.

I used mailman to create a mailing list, and added all the employees.  I'm sure
there's a way to do it without mailman, but I reckon if you're going to send
something to "everyone" there ought to be a decent archive for it somewhere.

What I wanted was something along the lines of "if I wouldn't relay mail for
these people, I won't send messages to this address."  Primary concern is spam.

So incredibly easy to do in postfix.  smtpd_recipient_restrictions does the
access checks in order.  For me, I put my sasl checks, then my network checks,
then a check_recipient_access directive.  Like so:

smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated, permit_mynetworks,
check_recipient_access hash:/etc/postfix/internal,check_relay_domains

made a simple access file (/etc/postfix/internal):
[EMAIL PROTECTED]REJECT

postmap it, and postfix reload.  Done.

If you have employees that want to send stuff from home, or whatever, you can do
something more complicated with check_sender_access or whatever it's called, but
spam (and viruses!) fake that stuff all the time.  Another nice thing about
making it a mailing list, must easier to strip stuff, if you want to.  

Hope that helps...

Hi Dave

Directly from :http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/FAQ/FAQ-5.html#ss5.13

5.13 IE 6.0 SP1 fails when using basic authentication
When using basic authentication with Internet Explorer 6 SP1, you may
encounter issues when you first launch Internet Explorer. The problem
will show itself when you first authenticate, you will receive a "Page
Cannot Be Displayed" error. However, if you click refresh, the page will
be correctly displayed. 

This only happens immediately after you authenticate.

This is not a Squid error or bug. Microsoft broke the Basic
Authentication when they put out IE6 SP1.

There is a knowledgebase article ( KB 331906) regarding this issue. The
fix is to call Microsoft, open an incident referencing this KB article
and they will send you a "hot fix". They do warn that this code is not
"regression tested" but so far there have not been any reports of this
breaking anything else. The problematic file is wininet.dll.

According to Joao Coutinho, this simple solution also corrects the
problem:

  * Go to Tools/Internet
  * Go to Options/Advanced
  * UNSELECT "Show friendly HTTP error messages" under Browsing.

perdition - squirrelmail (pop3 and imap)

2003-09-26 Thread Craig
Hi Guys

We have squirrelmail running on our mail gateway for remote users to
access their mail from, however sometimes the users mailboxes reside on
other mailservers throughout the WAN.

Is there a way to configure squirrelmail to use something like perhaps
perdition to point
to the users /var/mail/mbox on another mail server ?

At the moment we are having to creating accounts on the gateway mail
server when the user travels and then re-route their mail once they are
back again.

Thanks
Craig

Not an alias, strictly speaking, but Procmail's recipes might do what 
you've asked.
Have a look at procmail, procmailrc, procmailex and formail man pages.

I looked into this recently, and as far as I can tell, you'll need some
sort of mailing list manager in place to do that, although I may be

I believe the effect can be had with a combo of
smtpd_restriction_classes combined with smtpd_recipient_restrictions,
smtpd_client_restrictions and what not.

This is one of the reasons why postfix is such an excellent program,
imho.

You can define e-mail addresses that may only receive mail from within
the network that way. Not a big deal really, but it can make for a nice
mind twister every now and again.

Good luck... Nico

vmware server with multiple Server OS's on blade servers

2003-09-26 Thread Theodore Knab
I was wondering if anyone is running multiple versions of Linux 
atop of vmware's enterprise server ? 

Supposedly, Vmware's enterprise server is its own OS.

I watched an IBM presentation yesterday where they were pushing
server consolidation. IBM is recommending that we
 [ the customer ] purchase high performance machines and run
vmware's [enterprise] server and then install multiple OS's on top of them. 

Currently blade servers allow for logical assignment of computing power, for example
you can assign blade one and two to 'real machine A' and blade
three,four,five to 'real machine B'. 

With VMWARE enterprise server the logical breakdown of machines can then be taken to a 
lower level. 
For example, you can run 64 virtual machines on each of the 'real machines'.
Additionally, each virtual [server] machine can be assigned a fixed
amount of real cpu, bandwidth, and disk space. For example, you can give
the web-server 5% of the total real machines power.

Although this sounds a little crazy and complex, there are some advantages 
of running with all the eggs in one basket.

For example, the blade servers save on space, reduce power and heat.
VMWARE would make a great test or training environment for duplicating a data
center on a few machines.

I was just wondering if anyone had started on this journey of
fragmented virtual machine ?

I have found some old versions of DCC packaged over at
http://warmerbythelake.com/dcc-stuff/ and an even older version at
http://people.debian.org/~bas/dcc/

Pyzor is in sarge and sid at the moment, I seem to remember it was
easy enough to rebuild it on woody using the sarge source packages.

I would be interested if anyone manages to get any newer versions
of DCC packaged.

If you want to subnet it then you'll need a router to have an IP address in 
each subnet.  But that shouldn't be a problem.

Have 1..14 as one subnet (15 is broadcast) and have 17..30 as another.

For the rest the best thing to do is to have a router that sends fake ARP 
responses so that the rest of the machines can consider themselves to be in 
a /24.
