SNMP access to pf ALTQ data?
Forgive the cross-posting, but I think I need a wider audience. Is it possible to track pf ALTQ usage with MRTG? I notice that FreeBSD's built-in bsnmpd has a module and mibs to support pf, but I know too little about SNMP to figure out how to access the queue stats. Specifically, I'm looking to make a series of MRTG graphs that show the total bytes that pass through each queue. I figure if worst comes to worst, I can work out a separate program that parses the output of 'pfctl -vsq' and returns that as MRTG-readable input, but it would be much smoother to get it via SNMP, if it can be done. Any help would be appreciated. I'm sure others would be interested in this as well. ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Re: Backups
Unison is your answer. I've been using it to synchronize the data on 20 branch servers with the big corporate server for backup onto one big tape drive every night for the last two years. Email me if you need help setting it up. ports/net/unison Brian Doherty wrote: Firstly let me say that I'm not sure if this is the right list to post to, so if I am incorrect I apologise. Also if there is a better list for me to post to, please direct me to it. I have built a redundant freeBSD box for my mail server, and for my webserver, and am putting the redundant boxes in a different geographic location. I am looking for a way to backup the relevant data on the current mail and webservers to the new redundant boxes every night. I could use scp and do a full backup every night but I remember hearing of a piece of bsd software that can compare the two file systems and just copy the changes. This would dramatically cut down on the traffic across the link between the machines. Is there a tried and trusted method of doing this? BTW I perform backups at the current site onto tape and will continue to do so, I may perform tape backup at the new site too. Is this over kill?

Re: dhclient in 6.0
Chuck Swiger wrote: It would also be good if dhcpd would reassign the same IP to the same machine (if the IP is not otherwise being used) if there was a prior lease matching the client asking for a new lease, and not just when a client is trying to renew an existing lease. I'm way outside the debate here, but I run a FreeBSD 6 server with isc-dhcpd3-server from ports, and it does exactly what you say you want. I've been using a single system to build a new system image to deploy to our 450 workstations, and every time I re-image, wipe & reinstall, etc, dhcpd gives the machine the same IP it had before. We're talking clean registry, here, so there's no existing lease for the machine to ask for. This is just the most recent example - since I run Windows on my home systems too, I often have to wipe & reinstall, and always get the same IP (provided I haven't changed network cards - ie, MAC addresses).

You can (and probably should) enable ALTQ on the physical interface that gif(4) runnels use for encapsulated packets. Yes, but that doesn't do any good for the packets traveling inside the tunnel. Specifically, I have a corporate network hooked to a branch via VPN, and want to prioritize not just the tunnel over ordinary traffic, but prioritize different types of traffic inside the tunnel. ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

My ungodly PF config - am I sane and brilliant, or just deluded and dangerous?
ly one or possibly two endpoints (branch->corporate and sometimes branch->sister branch) will be significantly simpler, but if the above works, it's easy to transpose to the smaller situation. Something else I just noticed, since this is the "server end" - the point where most of the servers sit, as opposed to the clients - should I change those 'pass' lines from "from any to any port x" to "from any port x to any"? Is that valid? My theory is that I want to first, prioritize the traffic going out on the gif tunnels, then promote the gif packet actually travelling out over the $ext_if above most other traffic. It LOOKS like this will happen, but I want to see if I'm missing anything obvious. In the past, I've used NetBSD and ipfilter, so I'm relitively new to PF and wanted a second opinion.

Problem with IBM xSeries 226 with ServeRAID 6i+ using FreeBSD 5.3
I'm having a serious problem with my IBM xSeries servers. I have several in the field working properly, using ServeRAID 6i controllers with firmware v7.00.14. However, I just recently ordered two new ones, and now I can't get them to work. The controller is a 6i+, with firmware v7.00.17. Using stock 5.3 Boot CD or floppy, I get as far as the IPS driver resetting the controller, which appears to work (the drive lights flash as though the controller is resetting). Then nothing. The system hangs, the fans slow down, nothing ever happens. If I boot in Non-ACPI mode, it's the same thing. However, if I boot in Safe Mode, it works perfectly. I've even managed to install the OS onto the system. However, in Safe Mode, I have no network adapters, so the server becomes instantly useless. Any help would be appreciated.
