Log analysis program running under apache reboots server!

2000-11-13 Thread Nicole Harrington

Greetings all.. 

  I have been trying to test an apache log analizing program called Nettracker
 (.sane.com) the program seems nice except for the fact that it keeps
 rebooting/crashing the server. This would just be labeled crappy software
 except for the fact that I am running the software as user apache and have
setup process limits in login.conf and it is still able to reboot the server.
 
  This seems like a real problem and security issue as I have setup limits in
 /etc/login.conf (see below) and the program is being run via CGI as user
 apache, yet it is still capable of rebooting the system. Seems like a nice
 hack
 to me.
 
  If anyone could check over my  login.conf settings below and make sure they
 are
 correct/ truly usefull, I would really appreciate it! Also any information on
 how this program could so easily reboot the server would be nice too.
 
   Thanks!!
 
 
Nicole

Re: /tmp on a ramdisk?

 The issue is that mount_mfs is simply newfs with a catch: it
 constructs the new filesystem completely in memory and lives on as
 the storage for the mounted filesystem.  If you view the processes on
 a system using MFS, you will notice that one of them is the original
 mount_mfs, having become a daemon.
 
 Yes, things are stored twice in memory: once in the buffer cache and
 once in the MFS process.  Yes, they are also copied multiple times.
 MFS simply can't perform as well as you might expect.  The malloc disk
 device can because it simply creates a kernel-memory backing store.
 The disadvantage here is that it's wired memory and can't get swapped
 out like mount_mfs can.

 Please forgive my late reply.. Just trying to catch up..

 Given all of the above statements, why does BSD/OS (at least on 4.0 and 4.1)
want to set up tmp as a Ramdisk? I don't even think there is a way around it
during the install.

How many files can I put in one diretory?

2000-06-22 Thread Nicole Harrington.


 Hello
 I have a user who needs to store a large amount of small html files. Like
around 2 million...

 Assuming FreeBSD 4.0-Stable with Soft Updates, what is a sane number that can
be handled per directory?


  Thanks!!

 that sounds insane! Because a name is a name, why dont they call
 those files xx/yy/zz/tt.html and the like, to get down to a more
 reasonable # of files per directory.
 

 Well.. Yea that's the idea.. But what is a reasonable number? 10K 100K etc.

   Nicole


 Or use a single file and a cgi which extracts things from the right place.
 In such a context, i assume that the best place to do the name lookup
 is in the app, not in the kernel.

 Yeah.. This is why databases where invented :)
 
 Hey I agree... However even if the html was databased.. (working on that now)
the custom graphics cannot be. (yet)


 FYI 4 in a directory really makes directory listings slow.. 2 million
 would suck :)
 

 Well.. Yea. But assuming you are using Apache and requesting the page and
graphics via a fully formed URL it should be pretty high.. I would assume.

be configured. :(

 Ad that to the new BIOS that won't allow keyboardless reboots :(

 I have good experiences so far with the Athlon stuff. However (sad to say)
avoid the Asus MB if you need to reboot without a keyboard attached.

 So far I like the FIC and Aopen boards.

 disinfecter.  Doesn't look like it destroys your hard drive, just loads
 itself into the registry, "infects" mIRC's ini file, and mails itself out to
 everyone else.  I can see how this would be annoying, and you'd have to
 remove the damn thing by hand, but doesn't seem like it would kill anything.
 It's pretty weak these days.  People in the past would have to learn
 assembly language and how to append to an EXE or COM file, load into memory,
 bind interrupts to reinfect, etc.  Now it's just some kid with a scripting
 language, or some gay trojan written in Visual Basic 6, that calls deltree
 or something.  Sad.  Truely sad.

 Infinite apologies if I offended you.  Were I live, the word gay is used
 quite often to describe things that are foolish or weak.  I didn't mean to
 offend the homosexual community, simply to express my distaste with the
 trojans.  :)
 

 Thanks! I am sure I am not the only one who perhaps raised an eyebrow.

 It does not use it... It just asks questions.. Problem is (with 4.0 now
being in the stable branch, that it now asks the wrong questions..

 out the bad memory (I don't have access to an hardware memory checker)
 was I able to fix my problems.

 Every "good" software based memory tester I have ever used took so long to
tell me anything I could have gone to the store, bought more memory, and
swapped it before it was done.

 I don't think adding it to the ports tree would be bad for those who are
desperate, but deffinatly list it as a "basic" memory tester.
