Re: [gentoo-user] Way OT: Doesn't IP need TCP or UDP for transport?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 On Friday 05 December 2003 05:39, Joshua Banks wrote: Hello, I thought for any type of IP packet to go out onto the internet Zone (passed the local default gateway) that the packet needed to use either TCP or UDP to accomplish transportation? Layer 3: IP - The protocol used to transport arbitrary packest from one endpoint to another endpoint. The endpoints are specified as IP numbers. The internet is mainly built around this protocol, with all routers knowing how to reach any given IP. Most everything transported on the internet is some form of IP. ICMP - This is a protocol with many of the properties of a layer 4 protocol, but as it is an integral part of IP it is implemented as a layer 3. ICMP used the standard IP header, and includes an additional type field (e.g. echo request and echo reply used for ping) + data relevant to the icmp type. ICMP is sort of a helper protocol, with which machines with an IP can transmit information in between each other in order to notify of events or request changes in the way IP is treated. Layer 4: TCP - A protocol that adds ports to IP's endpoint definition, support for streams (packet order is consistent) and delivery-guarantees (you know whether a packet has reached its destination). This protocol is built on top of IP, and the IP part is used to transport data from ip to ip. UDP - A protocol that also adds ports to IP's endpoint definition. Again, this protocol uses the IP part for transportation in between machines, and when a packet reaches the machine an IP belongs to the ports are used to further route the packet to the correct application. A typical traceroute happens as follows: A wants to traceroute E. In between them you have B, C and D. A sends a UDP (yes UDP is what default traceroutes use) packet to E, with a TTL (Time To Live) value of 1. B receives this packet, and sees that it has travelled TTL machine-machine hops. It then drops the packet as the TTL is exceeded, and sends an icmp ttl-exceeded back to A, including a specification of which packet it dropped. A now resends the UDP packet, this time with a TTL of 2. The packet travels to C this time, and again a ttl-exceeded icmp is sent back. This continues until the UDP packet actually reaches E. While this happens, the traceroute application shows the IPs of the machines it receives ttl-exceeded ICMPs from, and you'll get a nice map of how traffic *from A to E* travels. You still can't know how traffic from E to A travels, as that can be a totally different path (async routing), although in many cases it is the same. As others mentioned, there are several layer 3 and layer 4 protocols besides these mentioned here. Google for OSI Layer and you'll find it. - --Erik -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/0I3Mds9m9uhAobARAqu/AKCVV1DUA7Q9qeP1jrTFOA7Z4zn8vACgwZyi AUVj39Aj3KeOp7uKe3mqxSA= =VOr6 -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

I usually use Debian for such a server, but would like to hear thoughts and experiences for those currently using Gentoo. In my experience, Samba is not a good choice for anything resembling heavy load, mostly due to the resources required to simulate filesystem features that are native to Windows. I've had serious load and response-time problems in a 20-user setting with a few 100 GB of data shared through samba, most of these came from the continous directory rescanning Samba need to do in order to provide file-change notification to connected clients. There's also been a lot of issues with filenames containing non-us characters, and in general there's been more problems with this than it was worth. We moved file services to Windows 2k, and they now run properly for our 90% Windows LAN. There may be filesystems that provides file-change notification, and it might very well be possible to configure Samba to handle all character sets as transparently as Windows, but IMO Windows is way better suited for sharing out files to windows clients than Samba. Now, if you don't have windows clients, it's another story...

There is no total, painless conversion to ICC that I know of. I was never able to get a kernel compiled with it... If someone was to write a seamless wrapper for it, that translated gcc commands to icc ones, there may still be a legitimate use for ICC on linux. Until then, it's a curiosity. Most packages only need minor tweaking to get icc working. While testing out compilers for a work project I've found icc to use approximately 30-35% of the time gcc need to compile c++ sources, so we're definitely going to stick with it here. Most options map directly, Intel have done a lot of work to make it easy prefering icc over gcc. There's still a few tweaks that need to be done in some sources (like e.g. gcc's hton* macros), but these shouldn't be hard to incorporate in a general way. Intel has published a paper on gcc compatibility, and they plan on making icc even more compatible with gcc. They also made a 2.4.something kernel compile on icc, with a few patches for kernel code using gcc-specific features. A quick grep of /usr/portage shows less than 10 ebuilds currently honoring USE=icc. I just wish more ebuild developers would add icc awareness, allowing us who prefer the faster compile to have the choice ;) And, I'll ofcourse be very willing to start submitting patches for this myself, if it will be used at all.

Re: [gentoo-user] net aliases and masks

As such they get a default netmask if they are not specified. The IP appears to be I'd assume in most cases they live on the same subnet though. Well, at least on *my* boxes that's the most common setup ;) a C-class address and as such it gets a /24 netmask. The script could be so smart to enumerate all ip's on the computer and use that to get a better default netmask, but for most purposes such a script is not necessary. It should be possible to provide the netmask though, if not that is a BUG Not mentioned in the samples, but could be possible, I didn't bother to go through the scripts as it don't affect me either way. I guess an approach would be to allow a mask to be specified, and if it isn't then fallback to whatever netmask the primary IP on the relevant nic has. Or, alternatively, ignore it until it becomes a problem and rather fix emerge's dependancy on non-existant python threads (new problem, sigh ;) - --Erik -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+YOMjds9m9uhAobARAvrPAJ9O4i2QFzNN1EUK3bPzT6gLnS+/YwCcDsc2 F+OP9I6vQG7TWJfe9HWC1rQ= =w7d7 -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
