Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Possible bug with reserved IP's???

IMail 8 and WHITELIST AUTH, along with whitelisting your own IP space
solves a lot of potential problems.  I think this is what you are
talking about, or at least that seems to be the limit of what is
possible with pure automation in this environment.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Raid Controller

2004-03-25 Thread Adrian Hauri
Just for those who plan to run a high-speed Raid:

The todays bottleneck is not only the Raid-Controller, it's more about
shared PCI-bus (LAN and RAID Controller) which is normally a PCI-33 Bus:

PCI-33
133MB/s burst rate on 32bit/33MHz PCI bus
(32bit x 33Mhz=105600bit/s, divided by 8 = 132'000'000B/s)

PCI-66
266MB/s burst rate on 32bit/66MHz PCI bus
(32bit x 66Mhz=211200bits/s)

PCI 64bit 33Mhz
266MB/s burst rate on 64bit/33MHz PCI bus
(64bit x 33Mhz=105600bits/s)
Requires 64bit OS and expensive chipset (systemworks/special ram because of
the chipset etc.) as far as I know.

PCI 64bit 66Mhz
266MB/s burst rate on 64bit/33MHz PCI bus
(64bit x 33Mhz=105600bits/s)
Requires 64bit OS.

PCI-X 1.0 (66,100,133Mhz)
speed from 133MB-1066MB/s or more
A motherboard with pci-x slots downgrades all pci-x slots to the slowest pci

Well, first thing is all RAID levels create one single volume that
combines the total available drive space.  No matter what RAID level you
use, all 10 drives become one big volume, just like the 24-drive RAID 10
that I've got here.  You can partition it through Windows only if you
want to have more than one volume.

Raid 10 will always be the fastest redundant RAID.  Again, let's examine
the process for a 4-disk system:

WRITE RAID 10:
  Write to primary stripe (half of the drives, high-priority CPU cycles)
  Copy to backup stripe (half of the drives, delayed, idle-time CPU
cycles)

WRITE RAID 5:
  Write to primary stripe (high-priority CPU cycles to all drives)

READ RAID 10:
  Read from primary stripe (half the drives)

READ RAID 5:
  Read from the whole stripe (all of the drives)

There's also a calculative processor delay in RAID5 that RAID 10 doesn't
have to worry about.  RAID 10 always knows where the data needs to go,
RAID 5 has to figure it out, then create a parity block for every
stripe.

You need to examine why you are asking this question-- what is your real
storage need, performance vs. volume size vs. security?  Do you need the
extra usable space with RAID 5 more than you need the 30-40% boost in
performance that you get with RAID 10?  Do you need RAID 10's extra
security of surviving a double-drive failure?

Actually, that's what Declude JunkMail currently does.  This lets Declude 
JunkMail know whether the envelope sender is a local address or not.

What I'm talking about above is determining if the user has permission to

It's  not  that you always get better performance by aggregating, it's
that  you  _don't_  always get better performance the other way, while
always adding complexity.

If 'Application 1' and 'Application 2' have exactly identical disk I/O
demands,  creating  identical  dedicated  arrays  'RAID 1 Array 1' and
'RAID  1  Array  2'  can  be  considered  to  have  basically the same
performance  as  one RAID 10 array, albeit with surplus complexity. If
'Application   1'  and  'Application  2'  have  asymmetrical  demands,
however, that setup rewards one unnecessarily and punishes the other.

In  another message, I noted situations in which separate arrays would
be preferable.

> I  always  thought the rule was to separate logical processes across

I'd  phrase  the  rule  "Give  as  many  spindles  as possible to each
independent  function,"  so  in  some cases the spindles may be shared
between  functions, but each function can use more of them, which both
limits  contention by concurrent processes and also enables a function
to perform optimally when there is no contention (i.e. asymmetry).

But  I  think  the  rule is really less a hardware requirement than an
_awareness_  requirement--what you'll do when you have the need and/or
money.  It's  essential to realize what the current/future bottlenecks
might  be  on a server, even if you don't take action right now, which
means  dissecting  the  applications  you  currently run and those you
might pop in.

Another good example is when you setup a domain controller in the
Windows 2000 family, caching is disabled on the physical drives that
contain the active directory.  Since you can't get around that (without
applying a few hacks to system files), it's best to put the active
directory on a pair of mirror drives that are separate from everything
else on that machine.

That actually sounds like a good idea.  That would also work well for
people who have Declude running on multiple servers, and want to have one
source for the config file, but have different activation codes on each
server (the activation code could go into the config file that is manually

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Raid Controller

2004-03-25 Thread Todd Holt









I know that I’m coming into this
late and I’m a little confused about much of this discussion.  I don’t see how it’s
possible to get better performance by aggregating all of the disks and then
partitioning them out.  This will
still create contention when more than one partition is needed because they are
on the same spindles.

 

I always thought the rule was to separate
logical processes across separate spindles whenever possible and practical.  This would mean that multiple RAID sets
would be faster when allocating a RAID set to each of the following separately:

Windows system

Swap file (or even multiple swap files on multiple
RAID sets)

Imail system

Logging

Webmail/calendaring

 

Now this would get expensive, but we are
discussing performance here, right?

 

Going back to the SCSI vs. SATA
price/performance issue:

I have used SCSI for many moons and they
are rock solid, but very expensive. 
However, I usually end up replacing a drive every couple of years.  So my definition of rock solid is “no
data loss” and “not more than one dead drive each year”.  That’s acceptable to me.  Besides, I can have RAID keep a hot
spare to auto-rebuild the array and then I can hot replace the dead drive to
become a new hot spare.  It seems
that SATA controllers and drives can now give me this level of reliability.  And we have already agreed to the SATA
performance being virtually equal to SCSI performance.

 

Now it just sounds like SCSI bigotry.  Kind of like the *nix people bashing the
M$ people.

If  by  sender you mean the envelope sender, and not the username used
for  SMTP  AUTH, I don't see why not. If the domain is a local domain,
the  IMail  userbase is certainly available to applications running on
the  server  (with  the  exception  of peering setups). So I'd say the
problem  is  not  the  _availability_  of the userbase per se, but the
resources utilized by such lookups against slow/remote userbases.

There've  been  a couple of threads on the IMail Forum about this, and
each time it comes up as if it were a brand-new function to be done by
IMail  itself,  I  point out that the code is clearly already present:
this  exact  step  is  done  by IMail when using the famously insecure
relay  option  'Relay  for  Local  Users,'  but skipped when using the
mandatory AUTH/IP options, and of course skipped for non-relayed mail.
Just a little reshuffling on their end, and...:)

I  think  it  might  be  better  to start putting pressure on Ipswitch
through  the  IMail  Forum  than  by  trying  to  do the lookups using
Declude's process-per-message architecture.

When you create separate RAID arrays, these are presented to the OS as
separate  physical  disks, so you are _also_ creating separate logical
partitions, since you can't create standard OS-level partitions across
physical  disks.  It  isn't really a question of physical-vs.-logical,
it's  logical-vs.-physical-and-logical. I've never seen any benchmarks
that  suggest  that creating more arrays of the same RAID level on the
same controller gives better performance than utilizing as many drives
as  possible  in  a  single  array, if the striping/spanning option is
there.

There  _is_ one good reason to create separate RAID arrays of the same
RAID  level  hanging off the same card, and that is if you want to use
different  stripe  sizes  for different application functions based on
the  expected  size pattern of disk reads and writes. This can be very
smart for some situations.

Other rationales (persuasive in some cases) are (a) to enable capacity
expansion  for  some  application  functions  without  affecting other
functions  in  any way, and (b) to allow an entire functional array to
be moved to a new controller when purchased.

If  you're  doing  it  for some other reason, like a performance boost
with  a default config of each array...I don't think so. Remember also
that,  even  if separate arrays might otherwise be harmless, following
through  with that design decision when using enclosures that can only
hold  a  certain  number of drives can disallow, for example, RAID 10,
and  force  you  to  instead  use  two  RAID 1 arrays that may be used
unevenly.

This of course brings up another question: Is there a way for Declude 
JunkMail to find out accurately if the sender is really a local user

IMail versions before v8, difficult on v8).


A closer look also showed that it skipped the real DUL tests also.

I have an idea that could help me and others running IMail 8 and 
WHITELIST AUTH...you could provide a switch to disable DUL skipping for 
local senders (forged or otherwise) since it wouldn't be any benefit 
under those conditions.  Naturally a global method would be better, but 
if it's not readily possible, a limited patch is better than nothing.

BTW, I found myself in need of either turning off vulnerability checking 
today or disabling just the Partial Vulnerability, and the switch you 
provided there came in handy.  Thanks.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Enchancment suggestion

2004-03-25 Thread R. Scott Perry

I was reading another thread that digressed into the topic about the 
difficulty of keeping up with the latest .cfg file while maintaining the 
mail administrator s customized .cfg

I would like to suggest that perhaps a different approach to managing the 
.cfg files could be implemented.  It would be really nifty to have a base 
.cfg file and a separate .cfg file that holds an admin s changes.   This 
method works well in BSD style configuration files.

That way the good folks at declude could keep the base .cfg files updated 
and the admin s could conviently replace their base cfg file.  The diff 
file for lack of a better word would store the admin s tweeks, which would 
include addtions and subtractions from the base.
That actually sounds like a good idea.  That would also work well for 
people who have Declude running on multiple servers, and want to have one 
source for the config file, but have different activation codes on each 
server (the activation code could go into the config file that is manually 
updated).

The message came from a last hop that should have tripped all 4 of these 
tests, but for some reason it missed both (DYNA) tests.  The only thing 
that I can come up with is some bug related to the second hop which has a 
reserved IP forged in the headers (along with my domain forged).  This 
technique of separating (DYNA) and (ALL) otherwise has been working 
reliably to the best of my knowledge for several months.  I did also check 
to see if the private IP tripped those tests as the results suggest, and 
it wasn't listed.  Could this be related to some internal intelligence for 
skipping lookups on private IP's throwing off the DYNA skipping?

Ok, I'll bury this for the sake of everyone else on
this list (though I though the full discussion wouldn't hurt since the topic
comes up in brief often so I kept it here).

Basically you are saying throw 4 disks into a span and mirror the span (8
drives total, one disk seen by the system, and partitioned into logical drives
only for personal preference and not performance).  I was under the
assumption that the logic was to separate spans for different tasks, in other
words have multiple RAID 10 arrays instead of dedicating everything to just
one.  I can see how redundancy isn't really an issue and performance is
better than RAID 50 in this case with the only drawback being wasted space, but
that is of no consequence here.

Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, otherwise thanks for the

[Declude.JunkMail] Possible bug with reserved IP's???

2004-03-25 Thread Matt
Scott,

Excuse me for yacking up a storm, but I do have something totally on 
topic that I came across recently.  The headers below show a message 
that missed hitting on some DNSBL's.  I'm using a bit of a trick here in 
that both DSBL and XBL are defined twice, once with (DYNA) appended so 
that a last hop gets scored exclusively, and once with (ALL) where it 
will scan on any hit up to 4 hops down.  My config looks like the following:

DSBL(DYNA)ip4rlist.dsbl.org127.0.0.250
DSBL(ALL)ip4rlist.dsbl.org127.0.0.220
XBL(DYNA)ip4rsbl-xbl.spamhaus.org127.0.0.460
XBL(ALL)ip4rsbl-xbl.spamhaus.org127.0.0.420
The message came from a last hop that should have tripped all 4 of these 
tests, but for some reason it missed both (DYNA) tests.  The only thing 
that I can come up with is some bug related to the second hop which has 
a reserved IP forged in the headers (along with my domain forged).  This 
technique of separating (DYNA) and (ALL) otherwise has been working 
reliably to the best of my knowledge for several months.  I did also 
check to see if the private IP tripped those tests as the results 
suggest, and it wasn't listed.  Could this be related to some internal 
intelligence for skipping lookups on private IP's throwing off the DYNA 
skipping?

Thanks,

Matt

Yes, but you need the Pro versions of both Declude JunkMail and Virus to 
do so.  When you get around to configuring it, there may be some 
information buried in the archives, but most definitely read up in the 
manuals for "per-domain settings", and then post to the list whatever is 
unclear.  You will also want to search the IMail knowledge base for 
information on how to gateway domains, it requires an IP to be entered 
into the SMTP security settings and also an entry in your HOSTS file.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: Sales call on new domain

2004-03-25 Thread Dave Doherty
Hi Todd-

Maybe aplus is mining enom's database somehow. Stranger things have
happened.

One other thought: If somebody had access to the root servers, they could
theoretically do a day-to-day comparison of all domains, then do WHOIS
lookups on anything new. It would be a massive amount of data, but it could
be done.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Raid Controller

2004-03-25 Thread Keith Anderson

I don't know how the formatting was lost on this email, so here's
another try so it makes more sense:

RAID 0: non-redundant striping of drives 

RAID 1: drive mirroring (always an even number of drives) 

RAID 2: byte striping with moving parity (obsolete) 

RAID 3: byte striping with a fixed parity drive (obsolete) 

RAID 4: block striping with a fixed parity drive (obsolete) 

RAID 5: block striping with striped parity 

RAID 6: block striping with dual parity stripes (allows two drives to
fail)

RAID 1+0 or RAID 10: Mirrors of RAID 0 stripes (always an even number of
drives) 

RAID 0+3 or RAID 35: Striped RAID 3 (obsolete) 

RAID 0+5 or RAID 50: Striped RAID 5 

RAID 1+5 or RAID 51: Mirrors of RAID 5 strips

The last one is a play on "area 51", but it's the most fail-safe of all
of the RAID levels, used by military and extremely wealthy ignorants
that believe data loss only comes from failed hardware.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Raid Controller

2004-03-25 Thread Matt




I'm not about to try to track down 250 people all over the place and
try to get them to walk through changing the port in their mail
clients.  I'm a hosting provider, and supporting port 25 is pretty much
a requirement.  It's hard enough to get them to check that damn AUTH
box on the server's tab that Microsoft hides from the setup wizard. 
Seriously.

If I was hosting corporate mail servers for security conscious
customers, I might suggest such a thing.  Most of my hosting customer's
IT staffs consist of the neighbor's 13 year old kid that knows enough
to be dangerous.  Heck, I can hardly mention the word "port" to some
ISP tech support person with them suggesting that I'm being too
technical.  Seriously :)

I do recall your old directions about tricking IMail not to bond to
every IP, I just don't feel that I want to support this despite the
fact that it is working for you as you have said.  I think the router
implementation is more eloquent and should present no issues, so I'm
going to chase that one down until I hit a roadblock.  Optimally,
Ipswitch could give some consideration to the fact that they aren't
always going to be the sole SMTP server on a box, nor will they need to
be an SMTP server on every IP of the box regardless.  Wouldn't that be
dandy?

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Raid Controller

2004-03-25 Thread Matt




Thanks Sandy, dully noted.

I do host accounts, but I'm not pushing that side of my business. 
Currently it accounts for only about 1/5 of my E-mail volume, the rest
is gatewayed and growing.  I'm not sure though if I want to move it to
the new box or not though.  I need to do envelope rejection for invalid
addresses on gatewayed domains (old discussion), and the work around is
using ORF+MS SMTP which can't coexist on the same port as IMail, and I
need IMail on port 25 for SMTP AUTH.  The work around may be to
configure MS SMTP on port 25 and a unique IP, and IMail on say port
2525 on a unique IP, and have the router do port forwarding on IMail's
IP from 25 to 2525.  That way both could co-exist on the same box.  If
I can get that to work, I'll move everything over.  Web mail however is
rarely used and won't present any challenges.  I guess I could use a
Syslog server to take that burden off of the server, and it would be
easy to test by turning the logs off and on as far as what that would
do.  Declude of course won't syslog for the time being, but I'm buying
myself a lot of time I figure.

Placing Declude and Sniffer on it's own drive (if RAID 10) is something
that I was overlooking and probably should be considered.  So maybe 3
logical drives would seem immediately appropriate and maybe more if
conditions warrant.

If  you're  using  Web  Messaging  or  Calendaring,  virtual memory is
_always_  used, regardless of the amount of physical RAM, and in those
situations  your  system  will  benefit  from  multiple  swapfiles  on
dedicated spindles. Without WM/WC, your assessment is correct.

In  addition,  if  providing  WM/WC, performance will skyrocket if you
mount  \spool\web on dedicated spindles. From your message, however, I
sense that you are not providing mailbox services of any kind.

  
  
how about the log's?

  
  
Well,  think about it: every incoming connection is logged. If the log
is  on  the  same drive as the spool: immediate contention. Dedicating
spindles  to  logging,  or  moving  it  off  the  box completely, is a
near-mandate for a scaleable architecture.

Andrew (and Keith),

First gen SATA was just repackaged ATA with SATA connectors.  The 
conversion is likely what made the drives slower than their ATA 
counterparts.  The new drives are native and entering the second 
generation.  Also, controller cards like those made by Promise are entry 
level solutions and they're not at all the same type of architecture 
that you would find on a SCSI RAID card, but the newest offerings from 
3ware, LSI and RAIDCore most definitely are the real deal, and Keith, 
they do allow for true hot swap and hot spares.

You are right about the threat of cannibalism on SCSI capping the 
performance of SATA drives, but as referenced by that Tom's Hardware 
review of the Western Digital Raptor 10K, they have no SCSI business to 
protect.  That drive massively outperforms the Seagate SATA drive tested 
and should benchmark with the best SCSI's around when you put it on a 
fully capable system.  The WD drive should certainly do at least as well 
as a 15K Cheetah since those drives aren't known for performance.

I guess from my perspective I'm down to a choice of one thing, RAID 10 
or RAID 50.  I figure that I will build an 8 drive system, and I could 
either go with a 4 drive RAID 10 configuration with 2 each, or striped 
RAID 5 array.  It seems that I would need 3 striped drives in RAID 10 (6 
total) to get the performance of a RAID 50 implementation, however 
that's only for one drive of course.  The advantage goes down as you 
dedicate functions to separate sets of drives in RAID 10.  There's no 
equation that can tell you off the cuff what's best because it depends 
on the application and how many sequential reads and writes you are 
doing at one time and if those can be split up somewhat evenly across 
different drive letters.

Personally I believe that the processors will give out before the disks 
because I have a hefty setup where good E-mail with virus scanning and 
multiple filters is ravaging my dual P3 1 Ghz system.  Well blacklisted 
spam causes hardly a blip, and that suggests that disk I/O isn't much of 
an issue currently.  Of course I'm doing what I can to reduce the number 
of lines of code that I have in my custom filters and prodding for 
efficiency advances, some of which have already been indicated as 
expected features.

So I'm thinking RAID 50 should be better than a 4 drive RAID 10 array 
across 2 logical drives, but it becomes questionable as to what has the 
advantage when you have 6 or more drives in RAID 10 across 2 or more 
logical drives.

No doubt, the initial rollout of SATA was a yawn, and SATA systems including
RAID were regularly trounced by their ATA-133 equivalents.  Like IDE, SATA
had growing pains due to rival bodies pulling the standard in too many
directions, but SATA and SATA2 are determined to cherry pick the performance
features from SCSI, in particular: large caches, command queueing, interface
bandwidth, predictive failure, and hot swap.
I'm still concerned about the duty cycle that current SATA drives can
handle.  No drive technology is perfect, but the non-SCSI drives have never
been known for reliability or duty cycle. Maybe that will change and maybe
not.  There are no "upstart" SATA drive manufacturers, all of them make SCSI
drives too and won't want to cannibalize their market.
Matt, you'll have to report back in a year...

I don't like RAID50, at least how it was configured in one of the links you
provided.  I prefer to stay away from any RAID done in software.  RAID10, a
mirrored set of RAID5 is nice, but I've never gone for it.  Sets of mirrors
and RAID5 arrays with an extra drive for a hot spare are my preference for
high end systems.
Matt, you asked if anybody had comments on the performance gains to be had
by moving the page file somewhere else... under NT4 I would have said it was
mandatory, but with adequate RAM, W2K and W2K3 are not as aggressive with
the page file, and I would suggest putting it on your OS drive, making it
"big enough" and forgetting about it.  Beyond that, I would listen to
Sandy's previous comments about divvying up IMail and Declude on separate
drive systems.
At home I have a SATA Promise RocketRAID with excellent drives; I bought it
when you still couldn't get a SATA controller in Canada (not too long ago)
and had to work to find a dealer in the US that would ship to Canada.  I'm
happy with the speed, both for random reads and for beating the drives up
with large file copies that are non-cacheable.
At the office, I have a "near-line storage server" I built with a Promise
ATA controller and a bunch of large fast IDE drives.  It will be replaced
this year with bigger drives and a jump to SATA.  We use it for bulk storage
that doesn't have to be the fastest, and the cost for a HP SCSI based kit
just didn't make sense.

Dave,

I thought that might be the case so I called my rep an enom.com 
and she says the Do Not sell, or share info, although she did say that 
aplus.net is one of their resellers/customers.

I chose enom.com based on recommendations from people here on the 
list but I have never had this happen before with other registars.

If  you're  using  Web  Messaging  or  Calendaring,  virtual memory is
_always_  used, regardless of the amount of physical RAM, and in those
situations  your  system  will  benefit  from  multiple  swapfiles  on
dedicated spindles. Without WM/WC, your assessment is correct.

In  addition,  if  providing  WM/WC, performance will skyrocket if you
mount  \spool\web on dedicated spindles. From your message, however, I
sense that you are not providing mailbox services of any kind.

> how about the log's?

Well,  think about it: every incoming connection is logged. If the log
is  on  the  same drive as the spool: immediate contention. Dedicating
spindles  to  logging,  or  moving  it  off  the  box completely, is a
near-mandate for a scaleable architecture.

This is the same company that didn't pull that phishing scam from their
server for 36 hours before Valentines day.  They are also the same
company that is refusing to pull a customer of theirs that attacks my
server daily with a crawler that submits POST information to forms in
rapid succession and across my entire server.  They said it was
harmless, I told them that it was clear they didn't care at all about
what their customers did, they told me they took reports of abuse
seriously...and then they failed to respond again to the problem
despite repeated requests.  I had to change the code for some of the
forms on my site that lacked verification of a specific string of data
because this crawler submitted 80 forms in a couple of minutes to one
customer, and luckily the other forms were already protected.

In the IP's surrounding this crawler, Aplus also has a very graphic
porn site, a bulk mailer get rich quick scheme claiming 100,000 members
one month after registration, and some guy selling burnt CD's of
popular software titles.

Aplus is a scourge, and soon enough they will likely achieve ServInt
status in spam support.

I would say blacklist them but unfortunately they have legit
customers.  I do though add a few points to their IP's as a protective
measure, though right now they are more of a niche spam source.

BTW, using registry data for sales calls is a clear TOS violation. 
Aplus is a domain reseller and you might be able to get them kicked if
you try hard enough.

That's something that we are thinking about adding.  The only problem is
that some people may not want the information to appear in the headers (for
adult oriented E-mail, for example) -- although if the phrases are in the
body and the E-mail isn't blocked, the recipient is going to see the
phrases in the body anyway.

Scott,

Could not something like this be used.

(1000)  Body6   Containsspam phrase
(1001)  Body6   Containsspam phrase
(1002)  Body6   Containsspam phrase

Where instead of the actual spam phrase in the log file the identifying
phase code is recorded. This way each spam phrase could be uniquely numbered and
tracked. 

Having the numbering in front the actual spam phrase would eliminate the
need to try and separate numbering from something that may be included in an
actual spam phrase.

I had a problem with Sniffer earlier this week that turned out to be a
corrupt update. There was a consistent error in the log for the time period
when that botched update was in place. I've noted since then that several
others have complained of similar issues with their sniffer updates,
although not at the same time as mine was buggered. I assume that the
situation is getting some madscientific attention because it appears there
may be a little more than just random chance at work. 

When that particular failure occurs there is a particular fail-safe error
code returned, and I created a new SNIFFER-FAILSAFE test that looks for that
code and performs some bells and whistles to warn me of the problem so I can
manually update. Although the "spam storm" symptoms were a pretty good
indication.

I think that your sniffer update is corrupt. Do a manual update by executing
the autoSNF.cmd file from a dos prompt and get a fresh download.
In addition if you are trying the new beta version with a persistent
instance, you might consider going back to the original version. The problem
might be either or both but occurred for me last night and this is what it
took to get sniffer back up.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Raid Controller

2004-03-25 Thread Keith Anderson

ATA and SATA are best suited for the lower end of the spectrum, while
SCSI and FC are high-end.  SATA still doesn't allow drives to
communicate without going through the controller.  SATA still doesn't
allow disconnecting a drive mid-spin and replacing it without
interruption of the system.  Hot-swap carriages cheat the system by
fooling the adapter into thinking a drive is there, but just busy, and
you could never replace a dead one with a drive of differing capacity.
Here's a real example of hot swap:  if I wanted to add several terabytes
to my SCSI/160 RAID10 stack here, I can do so, replacing one drive at a
time with larger drives.  I don't have to shut down the array, and the
attached servers don't even feel a slowdown in performance.  With all
ATA/SATA systems, you must shut down and rebuild the array.  On-the-fly
scalability is critical in the high-end market.

No, I'm really not selling ATA or SATA short, but most ATA/133 drives
(the hardware itself) were never designed to drive throughput anywhere
near 133, and most SATA drives will never drive throughput at anywhere
near 150.  Your example of 450 MHz with 8 drives connected is a good
example-- even using ATA/100, shouldn't an eight channel RAID 5 be able
to handle a sustained throughput of 700?  Well, no, because it's ATA.

I'm sure SATA will hit 300 and 600 just like processors went from 4.77
MHz to 4.77 GHz.  But when all of us were dazzled by machines that
topped 100 MHz, the big machines were already playing at over 4 GHz.
Now we are in awe when our desktops hit 4 GHz, and the big machines are
dealing in teraflops.  To propose a SATA drive for one of these big
machines would be just as ridiculous as proposing a fiber channel RAID10
stack for a workstation.  99.999% of the processor time would be used in
waiting for the drives.  As desktop systems get faster and faster, so
will the standards.

I personally believe the biggest advantage with SATA is its support for
extremely large drives.  Maxtor is coming out with a Terabye drive in
the next few years, and it will not work with ATA.

As for standards in general, it's always important to remember that
standards have one purpose: "sell lots of hardware".  This is
accomplished by everyone agreeing on how to interconnect.  Don't be
fooled into thinking that they create standards for any other reason,
otherwise everything would be connected with FireWire, and we'd all be
using Apple servers. :)

The manufactures supporting SATA will never allow it to compete against
their high-margin products, SCSI and FC, so purposefully it will never
be quite as fast, quite as robust, or quite as capable.  You will always
be able to find premium (i.e. $15-$25 per gig) SCSI and FC products that
are better than anything made for ATA or SATA.  It's all about who is
willing to spend the most money.  Profit margins in the ATA and SATA
market are extremely tight, while SCSI and FC are very generous.

As for choosing a RAID type, it always depends on the usual argument of
budget vs. performance requirements vs. risk tolerance.  RAID5 is great
if you are okay with the risk that if two drives fail at the same time,
it's dead.  With very big arrays, your risk of dual failure is a lot
higher, especially if you bought all of the drives at the same time and
from the same place.  RAID50 is better than RAID5.  I'm still of the
opinion that RAID10 is the best for reliability and performance if you
have the budget, especially if they are SCSI so the mirrors are updated
across the cable and not through the adapter.

As for threads and whatnot, that also depends on your controller, its
cache size, the machine it's attached to, the speed of the drives, and a
lot of things.

I think that your sniffer update is corrupt. Do a manual update by
executing the autoSNF.cmd file from a dos prompt and get a fresh download.
In addition if you are trying the new beta version with a persistent
instance, you might consider going back to the original version. The
problem might be either or both but occurred for me last night and this is
what it took to get sniffer back up.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Raid Controller

2004-03-25 Thread Colbeck, Andrew
(A little late to the party)

No doubt, the initial rollout of SATA was a yawn, and SATA systems including
RAID were regularly trounced by their ATA-133 equivalents.  Like IDE, SATA
had growing pains due to rival bodies pulling the standard in too many
directions, but SATA and SATA2 are determined to cherry pick the performance
features from SCSI, in particular: large caches, command queueing, interface
bandwidth, predictive failure, and hot swap.

I'm still concerned about the duty cycle that current SATA drives can
handle.  No drive technology is perfect, but the non-SCSI drives have never
been known for reliability or duty cycle. Maybe that will change and maybe
not.  There are no "upstart" SATA drive manufacturers, all of them make SCSI
drives too and won't want to cannibalize their market.

Matt, you'll have to report back in a year...

I don't like RAID50, at least how it was configured in one of the links you
provided.  I prefer to stay away from any RAID done in software.  RAID10, a
mirrored set of RAID5 is nice, but I've never gone for it.  Sets of mirrors
and RAID5 arrays with an extra drive for a hot spare are my preference for
high end systems.

Matt, you asked if anybody had comments on the performance gains to be had
by moving the page file somewhere else... under NT4 I would have said it was
mandatory, but with adequate RAM, W2K and W2K3 are not as aggressive with
the page file, and I would suggest putting it on your OS drive, making it
"big enough" and forgetting about it.  Beyond that, I would listen to
Sandy's previous comments about divvying up IMail and Declude on separate
drive systems.

At home I have a SATA Promise RocketRAID with excellent drives; I bought it
when you still couldn't get a SATA controller in Canada (not too long ago)
and had to work to find a dealer in the US that would ship to Canada.  I'm
happy with the speed, both for random reads and for beating the drives up
with large file copies that are non-cacheable.

At the office, I have a "near-line storage server" I built with a Promise
ATA controller and a bunch of large fast IDE drives.  It will be replaced
this year with bigger drives and a jump to SATA.  We use it for bulk storage
that doesn't have to be the fastest, and the cost for a HP SCSI based kit
just didn't make sense.

Also at the office, we have two AS/400 servers with lots and lots of hard
drives.  IBM doesn't like to admit it, but they're really SCSI drives under
the hood.  They certainly do go bad, but we never know it.  The big black
box calls IBM with the predictive failure, and we get a call from our local
technician who wants to know when it would be convenient for us for him to
come in and replace it with a hot spare.

Subject: Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Raid Controller


You are selling serial ATA short.  Also, I'm not sure if you are mistaking
ATA with serial ATA in your reply.

It does turn out that there is some logical speculation that SCSI drive
manufacturers are treating SATA as their economy server/workstation class,
however Western Digital's 10K drive has no in house SCSI alternative.  Tom's
did a comparison of that to the Seagate here:

Smart Hard Drives: Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 and Western Digital WD740
Raptor
http://www.tomshardware.com/storage/20040123/index.html

I am definitely going the Western Digital route based on what I saw there.

Regarding SATA RAID cards, there are two things happening here.  First,
3wave and LSI are both working on full featured versions for SATA, and they
are starting to support native command queuing which apparently can speed
performance by 1/3, and instead of bridging ATA to SATA on the hard drives,
these are now also being made natively now as well.  Here's a press release
concerning LSI's upcoming offering:

LSI Logic launches industry's first PCI-X enabled hardware based
MegaRAID SATA 300-8X solution
http://www.lsilogic.com/news/product_news/2004_02_17a.html

I don't think you can find any fault with that.  Concerning the bus
bottleneck, the PCI-X upgrade will take care of that on a capable system.

I did some more research though and found the following review of a new
approach to RAID from some former Adaptec employees (now owned by Broadcom).
It's a company known as RAIDcore and their performance is at least on par
with Adaptec SCSI in the benchmarks on a RAID 0 installation according to
Tom's Hardware

RAIDCore Unleashes SATA to Take Out SCSI
http://www.tomshardware.com/storage/20031114/index.html

Better yet, the card has 8 independent channels and you can span across
controllers among other things.  I plan on buying one of these and doing
RAID 50 which will give me redundancy plus speed without having to dedicate
a disk to a specific drive.  This is generally cost prohibitive with SCSI.
RAIDCore claims performance of 450 MB/s sustained reads

2004-03-25 Thread R. Scott Perry

On that note Scott, any chance that in a future version the actual line of
text caught could be listed in the failure?  Like:
Message failed SUBJECTFILTER (332 room)
That's something that we are thinking about adding.  The only problem is 
that some people may not want the information to appear in the headers (for 
adult oriented E-mail, for example) -- although if the phrases are in the 
body and the E-mail isn't blocked, the recipient is going to see the 
phrases in the body anyway.

Or if not in the headers, how about in the log, maybe at only HIGH
level?
I believe that it will appear in the log file at LOGLEVEL HIGH.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Filter File processing

2004-03-25 Thread R. Scott Perry

A) A small number of larger filer files vs a lot of smaller files

B) Doesn't make any significant difference if you use the SKIPIFWEIGHT
option at
   the beginning even though it would still have to open the file to 
check the
   SKIPIFWEIGHT setting.

C) A small number of larger files ordered in the config file ordered from
   lightest processing most likely to hit to heaviest processing less 
likely to
   hit

D) Alot of smaller files ordered in the config file from ordered from
   lightest processing most likely to hit to heaviest processing less 
likely to
   hit

I would think C or D would be the best option.
I would agree.

Specifically, you would want BODY (or ANYWHERE) filters to only be used 
after everything else was handled.  Those are the most CPU intensive filters.

The last question is what, in number of lines, would be a large filter file.
500, 1000, 2000, 5000, 10,000
That depends on what your concerns are about the large files.  As far as 
Declude is concerned, a single large file of 10,000 lines would be (very 
slightly) more efficient than say 10 files with 1,000 lines each.  But the 
difference should be almost negligible.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] something is up help

2004-03-25 Thread Matt




Kevin,

I'm trying to be constructive when I say this, so don't take it the
wrong way.  You probably need to seriously rethink your implementation
if you are not up to date on the RBL's (DNSBL's) and doing things like
adding 30 points for subjects that contain the characters "room".  You
indicated that you missed some replies yesterday, and I would be
worried about what might have caused that to happen.  If you are doing
a lot of word filtering, you should start by looking there, and maybe
turn the scoring for these things off until you get a better handle on
what is going on.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Raid Controller

2004-03-25 Thread Matt




You are selling serial ATA short.  Also, I'm not sure if you are
mistaking ATA with serial ATA in your reply.

It does turn out that there is some logical speculation that SCSI drive
manufacturers are treating SATA as their economy server/workstation
class, however Western Digital's 10K drive has no in house SCSI
alternative.  Tom's did a comparison of that to the Seagate here:

    Smart Hard Drives: Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 and Western Digital
WD740 Raptor
    http://www.tomshardware.com/storage/20040123/index.html

I am definitely going the Western Digital route based on what I saw
there.

Regarding SATA RAID cards, there are two things happening here.  First,
3wave and LSI are both working on full featured versions for SATA, and
they are starting to support native command queuing which apparently
can speed performance by 1/3, and instead of bridging ATA to SATA on
the hard drives, these are now also being made natively now as well. 
Here's a press release concerning LSI's upcoming offering:

    LSI Logic launches industry's first PCI-X enabled hardware based
MegaRAID SATA 300-8X solution
    http://www.lsilogic.com/news/product_news/2004_02_17a.html

I don't think you can find any fault with that.  Concerning the bus
bottleneck, the PCI-X upgrade will take care of that on a capable
system.

I did some more research though and found the following review of a new
approach to RAID from some former Adaptec employees (now owned by
Broadcom).  It's a company known as RAIDcore and their performance is
at least on par with Adaptec SCSI in the benchmarks on a RAID 0
installation according to Tom's Hardware

    RAIDCore Unleashes SATA to Take Out SCSI
    http://www.tomshardware.com/storage/20031114/index.html

Better yet, the card has 8 independent channels and you can span across
controllers among other things.  I plan on buying one of these and
doing RAID 50 which will give me redundancy plus speed without having
to dedicate a disk to a specific drive.  This is generally cost
prohibitive with SCSI.  RAIDCore claims performance of 450 MB/s
sustained reads, and 230 MB/s sustained writes using an 8 drive RAID 50
setup.  The total cost for the drives plus the card would run me $1,200
(no hot swap, though that is available, even Intel is coming out with
hot swap SATA drive carriages this quarter).  A comparable setup with
SCSI RAID 50 would run 3 times the price and might not out perform.

    http://www.raidcore.net/RC4000DataSheet_2.pdf

The only issue that I see with this is the company is young and this is
their first product (though they are backed by Broadcom now), but it
looks real hot and you can get an 8 channel card for under $400.

If you are wondering about the effect of RAID 50 over just plain RAID
5, here's a nice start:

    http://cdfcaf.fnal.gov/doc/cdfnote_5962/node15.html

This shows that while performance decreases with RAID 5 as the number
of threads increases, RAID 50 maintains it's throughput until around
40-60 read threads before it drops off.  Naturally this would be
somewhat unique to each card, but it makes plenty of sense.

I believe that SCSI is just a physical interface/transport layer
protocol if I'm not mistaken, and all that makes SCSI special is what's
connected to it at either end.  SATA is more capable, and SATA II which
does 150 MB/s will be replaced by 300 MB/s versions, 600 MB/s versions,
and on, but for now, there is no need for even 100 MB/s on one channel
in this configuration so that doesn't matter.  It's foolish to think
that SATA won't take over the market as soon as they start connecting
the good stuff to SATA wires, and it looks like they are starting to do
that now.

reliable, and VERY expensive.  They go through weeks of intensive
testing before they are released for use.

If you look at the Seagate models in the low-end consumer market and
compare ATA and SCSI in the same lines, you'll find that the hardware
behind the PCB is identical.  I won't disagree that they overprice the
SCSI version of that drive, but there really is a lot more "smarts" in a
SCSI drive than ATA.  A SCSI device isn't just hard drives, but entire
arrays can be interfaced with SCSI, and other device types like
scanners, printers, etc. are supported.  The main advantage to SCSI is
that all SCSI devices must be able to function completely independent of
any other device.  For example, the SCSI command structure allows you to
copy data directly from one drive to another without data going through
the adapter.  A SCSI device can be disconnected and reconnected at will
from its host, and as long as the host wasn't in need of something at
that moment, nothing is interrupted.  Error handling is just as complex,
with the drive itself able to mark bad sectors and relocate data to
spare sectors, all without causing any transaction delays.

In contrast, ATA is watered down to be simple, cheap and mass
reproducable.  Very dependent on a host to tell it what to do at any
given moment, and if you disconnect it, it's lost from the system until
reboot (and possibly damaged).  When errors occur on an ATA drive, it
has very little smarts to handle it.  A failing ATA will drag a system
to its knees.

Yes, SCSI is an old standard, but many standards are just as old and
they are still the best choice today.  Look at Ethernet!

[Declude.JunkMail] Log Question

2004-03-25 Thread Bridges, Samantha
Good morning - 

Below is a line from my declude log file.  I was able to get the message
ID from my syslog and then went to my declude log file and found this.  

Could someone explain to me why this was caught?  I don't hold for
weight=0.  The other tests are IGNORE so they should not have stopped
this message.

2004 08:44:52 Qe2520a28017a22f2 L1 Message OK
03/25/2004 08:44:52 Qe2520a28017a22f2 Tests failed [weight=0]:
IPNOTINMX=IGNORE NOLEGITCONTENT=IGNORE CATCHALLMAILS=IGNORE 

Any help is appreciated.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] Raid Controller

2004-03-25 Thread Keith Anderson

My SCSI RAID10 rack has a dedicated "channel" (if you are referring to
the physical cable connecting the drive to the adapter card) for each
drive in the rack.  They don't share cables in high-end systems, either,
especially with SCSI/640.  Long before you run into bottlenecks at the
drive cables, you will run into a bottleneck at the interface between
your adapter card and the motherboard.  The only advantage to multiple
channels comes from a very efficient write-back cache right on the RAID
card.

Tom is comparing drives that you can buy at a place like CompUSA, isn't
he?  Budget ATA vs. budget SCSI (The Cheetah).  Aside from the hot-swap
advantage and a bit more throughput, SCSI just wasn't meant for the
CompUSA market.  It was intended and best suited for high-end
applications.  SCSI is also quickly being replaced by fiber channel in
the very high-end systems, because fiber channel handles 2Gig
throughput.  You don't pay a dollar-per-gigabyte to get 2 gigs of
throughput.  And YES, the drives are much different.  These drives are
much bigger, much faster, many more platters and heads, and very
reliable, and VERY expensive.  They go through weeks of intensive
testing before they are released for use.

If you look at the Seagate models in the low-end consumer market and
compare ATA and SCSI in the same lines, you'll find that the hardware
behind the PCB is identical.  I won't disagree that they overprice the
SCSI version of that drive, but there really is a lot more "smarts" in a
SCSI drive than ATA.  A SCSI device isn't just hard drives, but entire
arrays can be interfaced with SCSI, and other device types like
scanners, printers, etc. are supported.  The main advantage to SCSI is
that all SCSI devices must be able to function completely independent of
any other device.  For example, the SCSI command structure allows you to
copy data directly from one drive to another without data going through
the adapter.  A SCSI device can be disconnected and reconnected at will
from its host, and as long as the host wasn't in need of something at
that moment, nothing is interrupted.  Error handling is just as complex,
with the drive itself able to mark bad sectors and relocate data to
spare sectors, all without causing any transaction delays.

In contrast, ATA is watered down to be simple, cheap and mass
reproducable.  Very dependent on a host to tell it what to do at any
given moment, and if you disconnect it, it's lost from the system until
reboot (and possibly damaged).  When errors occur on an ATA drive, it
has very little smarts to handle it.  A failing ATA will drag a system
to its knees.

Yes, SCSI is an old standard, but many standards are just as old and
they are still the best choice today.  Look at Ethernet!

hi,
 
i 
don't it will work. there is nothing like BODYFILTER within a filter. i think 
you should try:

BODYFILTER filter

with 
ANYWHERE 0 CONTAINS 
sex
ANYWHERE 0 
CONTAINS 
sexy
ANYWHERE 0 
CONTAINS 
S badword 
that 
would search for those words in the whole messages (including the header) 
or
 BODYFILTER

with 
BODY 0 CONTAINS

BODY

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] DNS

2004-03-25 Thread R. Scott Perry

Whenever I have to bring my primary dns server down a lot of spam gets
through.
Correct.  Declude JunkMail relies on your DNS servers to detect spam.

It appears that declude is only using one DNS server.
That, too, is correct.  Given the architecture of IMail, using the backup 
can be problematic.  Note that it has recently been recommended to only 
have one DNS server listed in the IMail SMTP settings.

Is there a way for it to use my secondary DNS when the primary is down?
If you have planned downtime, you can add a DNS line in the 
\IMail\Declude\global.cfg file.  For example, if your backup DNS server is 
at 192.0.2.53, you can add a line "DNS 192.0.2.53" to the 
\IMail\Declude\global.cfg file, and Declude JunkMail will use that DNS 
server instead.

Yuck. My Adaptec 29160 is taking a crap. Come to find out, it is an OEM
resold by a distributor and purchased to build the server it is in by my old
employer, who I got the server from as part of the deal when I started my
business.

What do you think of the LSI 20160? Hardware RAID will not be used in this
server unless I could find a way to cram another 18GB drive into it to make
2 pairs of RAID1. (Already has 3 SCSIs for mail boxes and spool, 2 EIDE for
OS Page and logs, and a floppy and CD ROM. Tower box.)
