 Well, the gateway is ARPing for x.158 because it thinks it's on the same 
 network, which it isn't. Three suggestions :
 
 1) reconfigure the gateway with a static route to x.158 through x.147.
 
 2) configure ethernet bridging on x.147 through to x.158.
 
 3) use a different subnet for the x.158 box. Of course this will require the
 
 gateway to be reconfigured as well. Depending on what the x.158 machine needs
 
 to do, it might be easier to give it a private IP address and NAT it through
 
 the x.147 machine instead.

Re: dialin works only once or twice

2003-04-07 Thread robjeh
Hi Jan,

I had some problems with mgetty too, as i can remember ( he, its monday ) there 
are options to get more logging from pppd and mgetty. Setting more verbose 
logging will help you with finding the problem. 
Another thing you can try is to make a cleanup script in /etc/ppp/ip_down.d 
that makes sure the pppd is killed and the line is down and to run some checks 
( its allso possible to add some custom call logging ;) )

If you can't find the problem feel free to send me a email

Re: Correct choise of servers

2003-02-21 Thread robjeh
Lo,

If you are going to run Linux/BSD etc on the machine DONT use any WD disk, they 
have a weird system where they store there MB etc. on most of the disks. LILO 
refuses to work correct on those disks.

In your server i really should recommend good memory and a good chipset ( 
northbridge, southbridge ). Go for the Intel entry or Tyan boards.

If you are going to have a lot of traffic use good nic's some nic's eat up cpu 
power on high load. ( the intels are ok ).

I really could recommend or software raid1 or a hardware SCSI raid controller ( 
ouch there go's your money :P ). If you are going to use software raid use one 
disk a IDE channel with no extra devices on it ( like CD-ROM drives ). IDE disk 
are build for 6 hours on-time a day not 24/7. ( but they will do well ).

You should be sure about the ammount of power your supply can give you. 400 
Watt should do the job. ( i don't see it in your list, it should be ).

For the intel/tyan board you should check the recommended cases. but the 
chieftech will do very well ( with a good power supply ).

God why a floppy drive :P.

You might want to remove all cpu fans especialy on an inwin case, power fans 
etc and replace them with papst fans ( they last longer ). On older systems 
this is the first thing that is going to fail together with the hard drives.

The prices on XEON proc are really low nowdays! maybe you wan't to take a look 
at an entry board with Xeon proc/procs. ( oh you did :P )
2171,2  Intel Pentium Xeon Northwood 2200MHz In-a-Box
Thats the old price i guess.

Well i hope i gave you some valuable advises for building your server. If you 
have any questions feel free to mail me off-the-list ;)

Grtnx,

Robbert Helling

 If you have a machine with only 2 hard drives that aren't 10,000 or 15,000rpm
 
 drives and no other hardware that is power hungry then a 400W PSU is not 
 needed.
 
 If your hardware is typical desktop hardware then a typical desktop PSU will
 
 be able to handle the load without any problems.
 
 If you have 15,000rpm disks then power isn't the main problem, the main 
 problem is cooling.  Remember, the majority of the electrical power gets 
 converted into heat.  The more power you use the more cooling you need.

Re: Correct choise of servers

True true but the chief.(uhh) has 2 HD racks for 4 disk, if you use one rack 
for 2 disk it should be ok if you place a fan behind it ( they made a socket 
for a fan behind the rack ). The only thing to think about is what direction. 
Blow or suck, if you suck are into your case it could be fatal if the PSU fan 
sucks too. ... but that easy to find out with smoke or a lighter :

 If you put 2*15,000rpm disks in a desktop case then no PSU fan will be able
 to 
 cool them.
 
 Even 10,000rpm disks are known for dieing when put in desktop cases.
 
 When you purchase a serious server machine then you expect at least one fan
 
 for the PSU and two for the case in addition to CPU fans.
 
 The best solution for cooling a server is to actually buy a server machine 
 from a company that sells them, then you know that all the parts will work 
 together.  There are lots of adverts in Linux Journal and Linux Magazine.

Re: Apache DocumentRoot as symlink

Hi Rod,

If it still doesn't work with symlinks i doubt if its ever gonna work that way 
as you say you provided all rights on the root of your system ;) maybe 
rewriting will do the same trick as another alternative? 

Greats,
 Robbert Helling


Citeren Rod Rodolico [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 Been playing with this for a little while. I need to set up my Apache
 DocumentRoot to be a symlink on the devel box. Any clues? I can do a work
 around, but it would be really nice to just use symlinks.
 
 I have set up followsymlink under the permissions for /, and under several
 other directories, and given permissions (very, very lax ones) to all of
 the directories I would be linking to, but still no joy.
 
 Any help would be great. BTW, I know never to do this on a production box.
 
 Thanks,
 
 Rod

G'day,

you mean like having the following entry in my named.conf?

logging {
category lame-servers { null; };
category cname { null; };
};

Yep..already tried that one...interestingly tho...since I posted that
message the entries seemed to have stoppedmaybe someowne saw it, took
notice, and actualy fixed something somewhere outside of my control :-)

Cheers for the rtfm suggestion thoI swear I did try to tho! :-)  I was
more interested in trying to figure out what exactly was causing the look
ups to happen in the first place rather than just ignore thembut now
they are gone so too late...thanks for responfing anyway.

Cheers,

 Hi lauchlin,

 if you want to configure the logging options under bind you can read the
 manual
 of named.conf ( man named.conf ). I guess its like logging-options { lame-
 servers none; ) If you need more help about bind just reply i will be home
 @
 7.00 GTM+1 and i can paste the config options you need when i'm home :)

 Goodluck :)

 Hi,

 not 100% debian related I know but for the last few days I've been
 getting alot of the following messages in my syslog:

 named[18287]: sysquery: query(ns2.requestedhosting.com) All possible A
 RR's lame

 Now, I know it is normal to get this kind of message every now and then
 for a daomin where all the name servers are lame but but I am getting
 this in my logs up to 60 times an hourfor the past 3 days!

 Is there any way of traceing back the query to which process is or
 daemon might be generating this query?  FYI I deny recursive queries.
 The box runs smtp, pop, imap, and www service.


 Cheers,

 Lauchlin

Re: Gaming server

2003-01-20 Thread robjeh
Hi Tod,

before anyone can answer that question they need to know:

1. What type of game
2. How much players will play on the server
3. Is it hosted multiplayer lan or multiplayer on internet

So you can say yes i have experience with it but i cannot answer your question 
because CPU/memory/bandwith requirements are differtent for each game.

Grtnx,
Robbert Helling,
Netgamez Network administrator.

p.s. sorry for the s*ck* webmail ads :)

 Hi,

 under Debian.  Also wondering if you know the CPU/memory/bandwidth
 requirements of such a project.  Thanks,

 If you're looking for something cheaper, I'd say goodbye to my

 For the quarter price I get a used SCSI-RAID-Controller at 'eBay'

 Then please do so.

Have fun with it, if a harddisk fails ( on most controllers ) your system will 
hang and it doesn't boot anymore. So good luck with your IBM controllers. If i 
would buy a controller it would be an Adaptec due to my good experiences with 
these controllers.
