Re: DNS cpu utilization
I would suggest you setup some sort of monitoring on the bind process. I personally use mrtg to graph the output of rndc stats. The main dns server I am responsible for runs about 12k-15k dns queries per 5 minutes and has just about zero load. It's running on a slowish (aren't they all) sparc. I think your bind process is probably not configured optimally for your machine. You might want to increase the amount of ram available to the bind process (max-cache-size 50M;) and setup some server-side monitoring so you can see what the machine is actually doing. Is the machine hitting the swap at all? You DON'T want a dns server swapping out to the disk all the time. Is the machine running any other services? You said dns was this machine's primary service, but what else is running? Close down all of the services except ssh and bind and see how it runs. If you push a machine too hard you should not have ANY stability problems. If you have stability problems anytime, you have faulty hardware. If you start running the limit of your hardware, the machine will let you know by dropping dns requests and being overall unresponsive. -jason peace bwitchu wrote: These two bind servers are authoritative for 200 zones and as far as clients go that's a hard one. Because of the way everything snowballed before I got ahold of it it could be as many as 10,000 this is a best guess of course. Once I prove that debian is the way to go with this I plan to implement the split dns topology. I don't have any statistics yet but plan to have some by week end.

Re: using spamassassin in an isp environment ?
If you have external MX boxes that are not your main mail server, through dns you can ponit the domains you want filtered to the mx hosts, and the other non-filtered domains to the main mail server. I currently run a mail system somewhat like that and we use qmail with spamassassin combined with several dnsbl lists like the one spamcop offers (www.spamcop.net). I would not use only spamassassin. Since it is public information, spammers use this to avoid getting caught by it. It works great for virus scanning, but it does not catch too much spam. I do have ours turned down, but you will have to do that if you are scanning mail for clients. What do you mean 15GB mail traffic / server? Mine currently handles about 300k pieces of mail, and it's load balanced over two dual piii-733 dell power edges running debian. They run about 75% loaded all day, with a load of about 1.5. CPU speed is important, but don't forget about ram. The machines would not handle the load with 256 megs of ram (random crashing). -Jason Markus Welsch wrote: hi all, does any of you use latest version of spamassassin in your isp environment? i'm considering installing it as content-filter (Postfix 2.07 as MTA) on both mx servers ... the only thing that holds me back is how it responses to performance for 15 GB mail traffic / server. how are your experiences with it? since it's written in perl it will be a huge performance decrease, right? would it be possible to do filtering just for specified domains ? greetings, markus

The system should be a mailer for a newsletter system. As I made quite a couple of things with postfix, my concern is the amount and considerations which have to be made when handling such an amount. __ Nik Engel NETWAYS GmbH Senior Systems Engineer Deutschherrnstr. 47a Fon.0911/92885-13 D-90429 Nürnberg Fax.0911/92885-33 [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.netways.de

Re: Weakest point of a server?

Is it often for something on the motherboard to fail, after 3-4 years continuous operation without failure? Normally, I'd say no on this point, particularly if the server is continuously running. I would agree most solid state components like motherboards should last years, I would suggest the weakest point would be cheap capacitors, just how you research a board to avoid this I dont know. Or is there some other part(s) we should look out for instead... would the CPU itself die after 3 years continuous operation? Or maybe RAM? Or even the LAN cards? no, solid state. The biggest risk is mechanical failure. The two mechanical parts are Hard drives and fans. Failure of the cooling fans allowing parts to overheat has to be watched for One of the weakest ones seems to be the nasty little fans on the high end graphics cards, ive had enough pack up to be concerned. So when picking parts look for static heat sinks and good cases where possible I would suggest. For hard drives, hardware raid mirror the boot disks and at the very least raid5 the data disks, if you have the $ then RAID1+0. Given the life of a server is probably 3 to 4 years I dont know that there is really any PPM (planned preventative maintenance) possible. I would suggest the most likey areas to spend money on are external, 1) A good UPS 2) a clean environment 3) Air con / air tempering ie keep the box below 24 Deg C regards Thing -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: Gaming server
yes From limited experience a linux game server is way faster and more stable than a win2k one (are we surprised). The slowest Athlon you can buy today (2000XP?) combined with 512meg of ram will support 64 clients easily on Q2 and Q3 for instance, with both games running at once. The only time it might falter is if lots of clients have bfg fireballs in the air at once (must be due to the calcs these must need) The smallest cpu Ive run on is a p2-300 with 256M of ram and that ran 16 ppl on a lan fine in Q2 with someting like a 0.2 ~ 0.3 load. Most clients were/are optimised to run on what a standard modem can provide, so if you have a good make of 100 Meg card and a switch network should not be an issue. eepro's, 3com 905s, Dec tulips, all have low cpu requirements and work well. regards, Thing On Tue, 21 Jan 2003 04:15, Todd Charron wrote: Hi, I was wondering if any of you have any experience running a game server under Debian.

Re: Compaq Proliant DL320 installation.
Yes Im not impressed either, Ive had words with HP/Compaq reps over the crappy support for Debian, indeed I think the RH support is half hearted at best. Ive tried running rpm under debian with this compaq stuff and it failed miserably, but this was on a 1600R. Ive had woody and rh 7.2 ~ 8.0 on these dl320 machines fine, but of course software raid is a joke If appropriate and your budget will stand it I'd suggest hwraid, so thats the dl360, or look at a dell which is what Im doing at present. regards Thing On Mon, 20 Jan 2003 22:28, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, I am just installing Woody on a Compaq Proliant DL320 server (PIII 1.13GHz), and the various Compaq Agents drivers are avaiable for different releases of RedHat, SuSE and some other distros except Debian.

Re: Compaq Proliant DL320 installation.
The 5500 is a bigger version (4 ppro cpus?) of the 2500 I believe, I dont see it being a problem, what I had to do is start with the 2 compact boot floppies, then switch to the cdrom later. This is due to problems with the compaq scsi raid controller not being seen in a standard boot kernel and /or a prob with the onboard ncr scsi controller. As for diagnostics u can get bootable floppies to check stuff out on hp/compaq's web site. As far as I know they will work with the 5500, they certainly do with the 2500. My understanding would be that the latest smarctstart cd is backwards compatible with the older kit. The utilities were just updated over the years to reflect new hardware as it came along, reading the compaq revision data suggests this anyway. Certainly my ver 5.40 dl320 smartstart cds work in the 1600r's and 2500r's i have. regards Thing On Tue, 21 Jan 2003 11:17, Toni Mueller wrote: Hi, On Mon, Jan 20, 2003 at 07:16:38PM +0100, Tomasz Papszun wrote: On Mon, 20 Jan 2003 at 10:28:03 +0100, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am just installing Woody on a Compaq Proliant DL320 server (PIII I'm trying to get an old proliant 5500 up as well ;-) 1.13GHz), and the various Compaq Agents drivers are avaiable for different releases of RedHat, SuSE and some other distros except Debian. having a hand would be nice... I haven't tried any Compaq agents on it though. I have tried lm-sensors but I haven't succeeded, even with some help from lm-sensors people. Maybe Compaq has modified the hardware in some not typical way... You can bet on that. Compaqs seem to have many functions not in hardware but in software in a hidden disk partition, including disk partitioning software *eek*. My best bet so far is to find the right SmartStart CD (how?) and go from there. Afterwards, there are allegedly a number of Linux programs that can do hardware diagnosis and such... but I didn't find those yet.

email account and dns
Hi, I have a user that has one of his domains, user1.com, pointing his other domain, user2.com via the dns zone file. He asked me to redirect his user1.com domain to his new domain user3.com. I changed the entry in his user1.com zone file to point to the new user3.com domain, which is up. I also up dated the serial and then ran a rndc reload. I did this to both the primairy and secondary dns servers and user1.com still point to user2.com. I did a dig for the information and the ip address for user1.com still comes up as the ip of user2.com. I thought maybe it was cached information so I then ran a rndc flush and it still comes up wrong. I also have had a few email accounts disappear and was wondering if anyone had a similar issue. I did a search in the archive for dns redirect and accounts disappearing but could not find anything. Any input would be appreciated. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: email account and dns
Thank you for the reply. The dns zone problem has been fixed by removing the zone file, running rndc reload, recreating the zone file (exactly), and then running rndc reload again. It worked for some strange reason. I normally would use the real domains but the customer wanted to remain anonymous. Sorry I was not more descriptive with the other concern. It looks like someone completely removed two accounts. That's the only way I can explain it. I think it is an internal problem unless someone has heard of something like that before.

RES: Network Proxy Recommendation Needed
What package would be simplest to set up and maintain for general proxy/firewall purposes? squid and iptables 'a kernel+app resource'. One of the major concerns for them is restricting unauthorized downloads and allowing Internet access to a database system using the server version of FileMaker Pro (hosted on an NT machine). squid and iptbles can do this very fine. Also, while I am thinking of it, can anyone tell me if the Network Everywhere NC100 FastEthernet 10/100 Network Card is Linux compatible and what kernal module to use for it? ne2k-pci # modprobe ne2k-pci or # modprobe ne For most card's NC is 'NetWare Card'. You can use a comercial solution to do this work, but, if you have some time you can configure you firewall and gateway with only this resource, and can do all you need and can have total control of the network. wendel/arcl.com.br -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: Can't delete (hack checks)
I tried to update my debian box which is running Potato. When libc6 tries to install it fails giving an error about not being able to symlink libnss_db.so.2. I took a look at libnss_db.so.2 and things are very odd. A 'ls -la' gives One of the more knowledgeable hackers Ive had on my honeypot modified some library files and made them undelete-able. Even as root. Drove me nuts until I found a .history file he left behind (ok, not so smart). One of the commands he did was chatter +i filename So I did a chatter -i filename and that fixed it. The chattr comman isnt very well documented but I feel its like other command stha tare no longer well documented because they are considered a bad idea, like rsh and suid tricks. By the way, to the first poster I recommend they do a few hack checks like ls -blart /bin ls -blart /sbin ls -blart /usr/bin (can you explain the change dates on the files at the end, especialy if its files like login, ls, ps, find, netstat) and do a file /dev/* |grep -i asc do any of the files say they are ascii or script files? also try doing ls -blart /dev ls -blart /usr to see if any new directorys with odd names show up such as ... or more than one directory named . or ..

Re: arpwatch and more
Well, you could buy a managed switch from HP or Cisco. :-) Personally, I have no idea how to do this sort of thing with Linux; but it's probably better to do it at the backbone with a reliable switch than to throw in extra servers with multiple network cards all over the place (which would increase the point of failure several times...incoming cable, NIC, server, NIC, outgoing cable, etc). - Frank At 12:28 PM 3/16/2001, you wrote: can someone tell me how to secure a network so that: the router won't route traffic if the specific mac address isn't registered before hand? it would keep people in line. better, a table with mac addresses and ip(s) (its already there), but have it authenticated so you can't just bring up an ip without pre-assignment.

Re: Debian vs. freeBSD
When I say NFS, I mean we will need to mount drives out on the network as a local drive. For example, we will need to mount a public drive running on an NT server as a /mountpoint on the local file system for access. Will this be a problem via debian and also should this be best done via samba? Thanks so much, Ashby Gochenour NTELOS NOC Except for nfs, and given the non-production purpose, I agree. Nfs, especially if you are serving to non-linux clients, might be problemmatic under Linux/Debian. If I were to deploy Linux as an NFS server, I'd do some reading up on how much of the recent nfs work is actually in the stable kernels and how stable it is. cheers, BM -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: NOC scripting
Hello Everyone, Thank you all for the replies regarding Big Brother/Netsaint/mon. Those are all very well to monitor hosts and networks. We aleready have something similar implemented made by Harris Systems. I was doing a seperate project to actually have a machine that has all connections open automatically (via ssh, telnet, rsh) and yes, many of these systems do have a funky interface that needs vt100 or something similar (mostly telco switches and devices) so I gess basically what I need is a scripting method to read in login: and reply passwd: and reply and a method to place and size Eterm/Xterm on various virtual desktops (E) ? I don't need an all around monitoring system, but rather a machine to supply actual connections to devices.

Debian vs. freeBSD
Hey All, I know I've been causing a lot of mail on the list lately, but I hope to get a good response out of this one too. My manager has asked me to write a proposal on installing Debian or FreeBSD on a few servers here that will be used (internally to the company- i.e- non production) for basic services such as NFS, mail, apache (backing a request tracker ticketing system), internal DNS and ftp services. I've been using debian for about a year and a half and have used freeBSD for a few months back in 1998 before laying it aside for linux. From my experiences I can't really see why one would be superior to the other if configured properly. Do any of you as debian-ispers have any opinions of things I could list in the proposal? Thanks for the time. This is the best list I've seen in quite some time as everyone is curtious and non FLAMEboyant :) Kindly, Ashby Gochenour NTELOS NOC -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

NOC scripting
Hello Debian-ISPers, I work in a fairly large NOC that monitors many various systems (many unix). I am working on developing a survailance system that accesses the various systems. I plan on using debian as the OS of the survailance system and have installed potato stable on a few test systems I will be using to develop the system. I plan on using enlightenment as a WM and wanted to ask for advice on the best way to write a script to open multiple terminal windows (Eterm or Xterm) to connect and log in to the many various systems that we monitor. As it stands now, most of the analyists use NT as a desktop, but I have been given the go ahead to try to develop a system that will be superior to the NT setup. I hope that I can launch one startup script (on X initiation) that will basically place all my windows on various virtual desktops and rsh and/or telnet and login to the devices that need to be accessed. Does anyone on this list have a suggestion or a starting place on launching multiple windows and/or a way to script an automatic telnet login? Thanks in advanced!

syslogd cisco logs

I guess the first one I'd be logging would be a cisco 2500. Thanks, A. D. Ghos -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Debian Slink
What kind of problems does samba have in potato? I was considering doing some samba stuff, but I run potato on my servers.

Netscape, IMAP and compact folder
On occasion, when using IMAP, my netscape will fail to compact the folder if I've been moving some mail from one place or another. I will have to restart netscape and move the mail again and then 'compact folder' is this a bug with netscape (4.73) or a bug with IMAP on the server? I am responsible for IMAP and this local machine, so either way it is my problem to fix :) Anyone have any experience with similar problem? Thank you Kindly, D.

Re: apache sending request to old hostname (fwd)
Hello Fraser, Thanks so much for the reply. Actually I have the ServerName commented out as I need be able to access the site through our LAN address as well as from the outside. If I set the ServerName, it will redirect any request coming in from the LAN out the router and through the internet back in the internet router (which will actually block the request anyway). That is why I am trying to get localhost to stay localhost instead of redirecting to the ServerName or actually the old hostname as it stands now. I still have no idea where the old host name is coming into play. Maybe it was something left over from the initial setup? Please advise if you have any more ideas! I hope that was clear about why I don't want to redirect to ServerName or old hostname. Thanks! D. Ghost Quite likely in /etc/apache/httpd.conf you have a ServerName directive pointing to the old hostname. If you request http://localhost/anything and anything is a directory then apache will automatically redirect you to http://ServerName/anything/ Good luck, Fraser -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

unauthorized FTP attempts
Hello ISPers, Recently (within the last couple months) I've noticed a big increase of people that are trying to ftp into my debian machine. I have logchecker running and notice whenever there is an attempt to connect. I was thinking in my mind that they may be trying to connect to see which version of ftpd I am running? I remember reading about a security hole in one of the old ftp servers. I've updated mine to the stable, but think this is what they may be trying to do. Also, I was wondering what kind of action (if any) we should take in stopping this type of thing? (contact the isp) ? Anyone have anything to say about this?

Re: logcheck
Hey Russel and Group, Thanks for the continuing discussion. Nobody suing to root is not non-threatening! Ideally you would have a group wheel or root required for su to root to prevent this. Currently I haven't as I haven't got the PAM setup for it going yet. PAM is acronym for 'password authentication mode' ? I know that BSD uses a wheel group that needs to be enacted before a su can happen. What means are you considering doing this?
