No graphs. man ipfw TRAFFIC SHAPER CONFIGURATION The ipfw pipe, queue and sched commands are used to configure the traffic shaper and packet scheduler. See the TRAFFIC SHAPER (DUMMYNET) CONFIGURATION Section below for details. If the world and the kernel get out of sync the ipfw ABI may break, pre- venting you from being able to add any rules. This can adversely effect the booting process. You can use ipfw disable firewall to temporarily disable the firewall to regain access to the network, allowing you to fix the problem. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Why scf (sfcd) monitoring sometimes doesn't work
Hello, I found fsc (http://www.freshports.org/sysutils/fsc/) to be extremely useful. Unfortunately, I can't get some services to be monitored, fscadm enable just failes with Could not monitor service. I don't know how kqueue interaction is working, so I can't guess why some services can be monitored fine and others not. How can I start finding out what goes wrong? How does the rc-name play into that role? Thanks, -Harry signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Let's say you have a branch for a productive version 1.0, and a branch (or trunc) for the next version 1.1 and a fix for a problem in 1.0 must of course also be fixed in 1.1; it would be nice if there is some tool to not do the tracking by hand in some files/Wiki or whatever; Thanks matthias -- Matthias Apitz t +49-89-61308 351 - f +49-89-61308 399 - m +49-170-4527211 e g...@unixarea.de - w http://www.unixarea.de/ ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

In what directtion should i look? Is Audit the thing for it? The problem with the whole idea is that i don't want to hog the raid with huge log of what happened to the files every nanosecond. For example, file is opened, writen 1000 times with write() and the closed. I don't want to get 1000 lines in the log. Something like: opened for write write repeated 1000 times (just one line with repetition counter) closed whould be nice, but if not possible, then just open and closed logged, w/o write. Better than nothing. Or maybe it can be very optimized binary log. I have no idea what i am writing about :) Thanks in advance!

monitoring hardware temperatures
Hello! I have a server (Dell Poweredge 2900), that's loaded with sensors. While it was in Windows-mode, a utility was able to tell me not only the temperature of each CPU-core, but also that of every DIMM!.. One of them was running far hotter than others, and I'd like to continue keeping an eye on it now that the box run FreeBSD. In FreeBSD there is coretemp(4), which is nice, but nothing else... There is no hw.acpi.thermal hierarchy either on this box... Yet, the box has 6 fans, two power-supplies, plus DIMMs -- all of them with sensors, that I can't read... It seems, in 2007, there was an attempt to introduce OpenBSD's sensor-framework: http://kerneltrap.org/OpenBSD/BSDCan_2008_Hardware_Sensors_Framework but it was backed-out after being declared a pile of crap and festering junkpile by our most mirthful contributor: http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=193129+0+archive/2007/cvs-all/20071021.cvs-all until a proper architectural solution has been found. Has that happened in the three years, that passed since that lovely discussion? Or are we still waiting for someone to design and implement it not merely adequately, but perfectly? If the three other BSD-cousins have had this for a while (NetBSD -- for 10 years, apparently), continuing to insist on some future perfection seems wrong -- we should have this adequate but imperfect method if only for cross-BSD compatibility. Is there, perhaps, a set of patches still secretly maintained by some die-hard? I'd love to try it here, and will be very thankful, if it gives me the monitoring, that I can not obtain otherwise...

I don't see information on each DIMM (yet?), but other information is quite useful... One of the fans, for example, was listed as cr (rather than ok) -- which was, apparently, causing all other fans to run at maximum speed (*very* noisy fans in poweredge 2900). I reset it (by pulling it out and back again), and now the box is quieting back down... The sensors-patches did not add any new entries under hw.sensors hierarchy :( The coretemp(4) stopped functioning, unfortunately... Whereas before, when I simply kldload-ed it, it was reporting reasonable temperatures, now that I have the sensors-patch merged in, I see nonsense like: hw.sensors.cpu0.temp0: -1282,97 degC hw.sensors.cpu1.temp0: -1272,97 degC hw.sensors.cpu2.temp0: -1282,97 degC hw.sensors.cpu3.temp0: -1262,97 degC Seems like some kind of calibration issue -- the numbers differ from each other and change with time... I think, I'll back the patch out as it did not give me any new information -- the it- and lm-devices aren't found on this box :-( Anyway, sdtemp(4) -- or equivalent -- is something, I'd like to have...

ipv6 network traffic monitoring -- searching a working probe software
Hi, currently I'm monitoring the network traffic with ng_netflow and nfdump/nfsen is used to collect, display and analyze the network traffic. I'm reviewing the tools to monitor ipv6. ng_netflow doesn't support ipv6 (is there a schedule to implement the needed protocol version 9?). I tried it with softflowd, seeing there is a constant offset of 4294959.134 in the duration and the nfsen filtering (in/out if x) doesn't work at all. YAF flows aren't recognized by nfsen. Any suggestions how to monitor ipv6 traffic?

Network traffic monitoring: BSD monitor verifying encryption

I don't care to validate the encryption itself; I trust that it is working properly, if it's working at all.

Wireshark displaying SSH traffic will for instance tell you straight-up in the Info field that the packet is Encrypted response packet len=xxx.

Would someone suggest FreeBSD alternatives (console or xserver based? wireshark, formerly known as ethereal works just fine on FreeBSD. If you want a console based variant, there's tshark, which is just wireshark without X11 support. All in the ports: net/wireshark, net/tshark As mentioned elsewhere, you can use tcpdump (bundled with the system) to capture traffic that you can later feed into wireshark for analysis. Handy hint: be aware that tcpdump generally only captures the packet headers and not the full packet content. To capture everything add '-s 0' to the tcpdump command line.

I just want to know what, if anything, I can look for in the traffic that will indicate encryption (e.g., is the initiation of key-exchanges easy to locate?). There are two possibilities: (a) capture session traffic over the wire and from that demonstrate the traffic is encrypted. Unless the plaintext is obviously ascii or otherwise readily identifiable, this might be a bit tricky. Probably the only 100% certain answer is to be able to decrypt the session traffic. (b) connect to the remote network port using eg. netcat (see nc(1)), telnet or 'openssl s_client' -- in the first two cases the idea would be to check that the server would not permit an unencrypted session; for the last case the idea is to check that the connection does handle presenting keys and certs correctly. Obviously this will depend on knowledge of how your particular communications protocol works.

Re: Network traffic monitoring: BSD monitor verifying encryption
Daniel Underwood wrote: Thanks for the help. I couldn't find any flags/fields in TCP packets indicated whether encrypted (as in the case of SSH packets). There isn't any, right? No. TCP (Transport Layer) knows nothing about encryption/encoding, and hence there is no room (or need) within the headers to signify those details. TCP provides reliable data transit, and really nothing more. Encryption happens higher up in the stack, and it is the responsibility of the application (or some function) to do this work. TCP provides the connection, in which you can throw any type of data you please. It does not care what type of data you put into it; it has no way of inherently finding that out. To find out the flags/configuration/techniques used by the application before it stuffs it's data into a packet, you have to read the data after it's been extracted from the packet all the way up near the application layer. Wireshark can 'dissect' each packet for numerous applications and protocols, hence it has the ability to inform you about encryption as in my previous SSH example. That is why I captured the entire packet with tcpdump (via the -s0 flag). If you don't, tcpdump will not capture enough information to decode the packet.

Correct: there isn't anything like that in the TCP headers. Encryption on TCP streams is an application level thing that only affects packet payloads. There are transport layer encryption protocols -- eg. IPSec, OpenVPN, etc. -- but those allow tunnelling TCP streams through them and aren't necessarily TCP themselves.

They're using the kernel's SMB facility. pciconf -l -v doesn't show an smbus on this system, even with the kernel options compiled in. healthd, I've tried, and it talks to some chips directly, but it hasn't been updated in forever. bsdhwmon looks like it did two releases and went unsupported, reports this board as unsupported. It would appear that older linux kernels find the hardware as follows on this link http://hausheer.osola.com/docs/8 (I realize BSD and linux are different, but perhaps the output there could help someone to know if something there is supported). Sadly, porting lm_sensors to BSD is hard because of all the kernel dependencies and abstraction. But something more universal under BSD as opposed to several years-outdated ports would be REALLY COOL. Dan, I'm curious... and only curious. Have you discovered if the OpenManage suite works with any drivers on the Linux system? Because if OpenManage is a userland utility only, running OpenManage with linux compatibility should work, right? It would appear that the openmanage stuff requires kernel modules to be loaded. As the way the linuxemu under BSD works, it basically includes a whole linux-kernel into the BSD kernel, I doubt any of those modules would load. This is a shame, we've gotten to the point where we can drop in windows drivers for things like modems and network cards (which I can easily slap a compatible one into my system and ignore the noncompatible one). But I can't exactly toss another hw monitoring chip in. :( My understanding of Linux compat is the ability to run userland apps (not drivers) under BSD. The closed minded attitude of Dell that will support X but not Y is offensive to me and that is what makes me steer clear of the Dell branded stuff. The systems came to me free, other than this dying fan thing, they've proven ROCK solid (and I have a bank of spare systems). I hope this might have sparked a interest - but I can't help with the Linux compat at all. I run BSD because it's not Linux. As do I. But linux excels in this area. lm_sensors is better than anything available under BSD. Given the drastic age of the ports I mentioned above, what ARE people using to gauge their systems?

Re: Monitoring geom
I'm not sure what the 'best' way to monitor a geom is but this should, in theory, work. I wrote it while eating lunch, so obviously it hasn't been tested much and probably contains bugs. If someone, perhaps here on the list, could offer suggested changes (or a better way), that'd be great! Hopefully the indentation won't get screwed up too badly in transit. If so, ask and I can email it as a plain-text attachment. # Script below: #!/bin/sh # DESCRIPTION: # Heartbeat script to check the status of geoms.

Both high temps happened while running periodic daily at 03:00 (which increased my trust in those). All that, was after i blew the box/case inside and closed the case. If i trust those numbers and their interpretation then i must not have a temperature problem (anymore). Lets see how the machine behaves.

Definitely. While experimenting, i noticed the 1st and 3rd temperatures from mbmon to be updated in a fashion that seems natural. [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]% mbmon Temp.= 41.0, 201.0, 42.0; Rot.= 3443,0,0 Vcore = 1.50, 1.81; Volt. = 3.30, 5.08, 11.43, -11.74, -1.69 What chipset is the mobo based on? mbmon runs fine on my 865G and a 3Ghz P4 CPU. You are probably correct, the middle temp may represent a sensor that is not recognized, but the other readings seem normal. I started to trust mbmon, and i think the 1st temp must be motherboard, while the 3rd CPU, and indeed the first value varies betaeen 41-42 degrees, and the third value from 39, (~ 100% idle) to 45 (0% idle). So i assume the above must be right. Yesterday i had mbmon -t mbmon.out running all night and the highest CPU temp was at 46 deg C, while highest MB temp was at 43 deg Celsius (if the previous assumptions about the interpretation of the output of mbmon are correct). Both high temps happened while running periodic daily at 03:00 (which increased my trust in those). All that, was after i blew the box/case inside and closed the case.

There is always the other usual suspect from the memory department :) For memory, I would suggest memtest86. For stressing the machine, try math/mprime in torture mode. Watch the temperatures and make sure you leave it running for a couple of hours and you don't get any errors. Usually, if you have a termperature problem it will bail out in half an hour or less. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Monitoring CPU temperature: mbmon shows 201 degrees C

Actually, that doesn't work, your components will get hotter. This is because the case provides a through flow environment where air is forced to flow over most of the components most of the time. By opening the case you remove the force, and now have to rely on convection. What you want to do is make sure all the fans are running freely. Especially the processor fan. It may have stopped silently an dthat would definitely cause crashes. A fan at the front of the case blowing IN is more effective than one on the back blowing out, so if there isn't one on the front, add one. The 80 to 120mm ones can be very quiet and some can control their own speed if your motherboard cannot do it. If one can blow in the front and directly on the harddrives then that is a bonus, cool harddrives last longer. The basic idea of a case is to have air coming in the front and exiting at the rear. So make sure all your fans are blowing in the right direction. My office goes to 38C in summer, and all 5 computers just keep on going, using the principles above.

It works fine on my core2duo laptop. I don't know if it works with the earlier Intel CoreDuo (not core2duo) Assuming the heat is what is actually causing you the problems, your options are rather limited: Move to a bigger case with options for better ventilation (maybe 12cm fans in front / rear) or use fans with higher CFM ratings (that will also make it more noisy, one more factor to consider).

I tried to monitor CPU temp with mbmon, which shows a very big value in COU temperature: I also opened the case in order to get ventilated with fresh air from the room. Actually, that doesn't work, your components will get hotter. This is because the case provides a through flow environment where air is forced to flow over most of the components most of the time. By opening the case you remove the force, and now have to rely on convection. What you want to do is make sure all the fans are running freely. Especially the processor fan. It may have stopped silently an dthat would definitely cause crashes. A fan at the front of the case blowing IN is more effective than one on the back blowing out, so if there isn't one on the front, add one. The 80 to 120mm ones can be very quiet and some can control their own speed if your motherboard cannot do it. If one can blow in the front and directly on the harddrives then that is a bonus, cool harddrives last longer. The basic idea of a case is to have air coming in the front and exiting at the rear. So make sure all your fans are blowing in the right direction. My office goes to 38C in summer, and all 5 computers just keep on going, using the principles above. I fitted a fan to the UPS as well (-: My box has 3 fans, one on the case blowing from outside=inside, one in the power supply and one on the CPU. In the evening, i will have the case/board inside blown/cleaned with air, i am gonna close the case, and i am gonna tune BIOS to fail-safe settings. When blowing the dust out, be sure to put the nozzle up against the edges of the cooling vanes on any coolers, especially the one for the CPU(s). Often such vanes are very close together and trap dust easily that will not be blown out when just cleaning the case and the motherboard. My portable, a Dell Inpsiron XPS, was running in a reduced-speed mode with COU temperatures in the high 70s C to low 80s C, but was also doing frequent emergency shutdowns at 89.5 C. After replacing two of the three fans and blowing out visible dust, the temperatures were reduced by about 15-18 C. Replacing the third fan brought the temperatures down another 2-3 C. Blowing the dust out of the cooling vanes brought them down another 6-8 C. Apart from that, i would like to have a reliable tool to monitor temperature. Is there anything in mind?

re :Network monitoring program.
if any of your network devices have NetFlow capability you could try IPFlow ( http://www.ipflow.utc.fr/index.php/Main_Page ) as a collector. There are binaries for FreeBSD and as a flow collector goes it is quite straightforward. It can also be hooked up with RRDTool.

Re: Network monitoring program.
Hi, I need to monitor the network traffic from specific IP addresses. I need to be able to deduce the applications that are running that are generating the traffic. Unless you have full acess to the machine with that specific IP, you will never be able to do more than guessing what are the application generating the traffic: let say you are on a router smowhere on your network and you are interested by the traffic generated by some client accessing Internet, if you see traffic on TCP 80, maybe it i Internet Explorer, maybe Firefox, but it coul dalso be an anti-virus that uses port 80 to update the virus definition. And if you have very strict network usage policy on your network and you are blocking everything except port 80, it could even be Emule on top of port 80.
