Re: [hlds_linux] Re: OT: IPTables logging

2003-02-20 Thread agenthh
There's a great little package I used before I learned all I ever wanted
to know about IPTables.
It's called NARC (Netfilter Automatic Rule Configurator).
It's easy to use, it has one main config file where you input all your
settings.
http://www.knowplace.org/netfilter/narc.html

Think of it as "IPTables for the people without time on their hands."

Interesting... I shall try that...

Have a look here, since I'm having a seperate problem now that
I've tried to organize stuff again...

Chain INPUT (policy DROP)
target prot opt source   destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source   destination

Chain INPUT_ACCEPT (1 references)
target prot opt source   destination

Now all of the sudden Ventrilo, on port 3784, isn't working for
people who aren't in the INPUT_HOSTS chain ?

As for the log, you say put it as the last in the INPUT chain?

VAC has been the real killer, it drove CPU usage up around 10 - 15% atleast.

Voice comms are ok, But i still use team speak personally.

I run a teamspeak server, which doesn't seem to use up much cpu, the server
shouldn't really have to do any processing on the voice so it shouldn't use
up much cpu I wouldn't imagine. (Bandwidth perhaps)

[hlds_linux] request: configurable VAC

2003-02-20 Thread Justin Mitchell
Hello Valve,

Would it be possible to add a few configuration options to VAC? As it is,
VAC gobbles an enormous amount of CPU power and makes it completely unusable
on some servers. But, I'd still like to use the global banlist and the
simple cheat detection. Would it be possible to add configuration options so
we can switch on and off the various aspect of VAC? This would make it much
more useful to a lot of people I'm sure.

Justin

Create a new chain where you log before blocking packet.

And then change in your firewall config every rules to jump to this new

You have to launch klogd with option -c 1
Go in /etc/sysconfig/syslog to fix this and restart syslogd . Logs will stop

2003-02-20 Thread Rob Poe
I have a RedHat 7.3 (2.4.18-24.7.x) box (P4 1.9, 512mb ram, SCSI disks)
that experiences WEIRD lag issues (lag spikes) with Day of Defeat 3.1

When I have > 13 people in it, and up to 21 people, the spikes are
often and continuous.  The processor on the box rarely hits more than
70%
even with 20 people (the server's max players).

I thought it might have been our T1 (which rarely hits over 65k/sec
sustained -- and the 65k/sec is the DOD clients).  We moved into
a new building and a new T1 line.  Still does it.

No weird messages in /var/log/messages and the Cisco router shows no
packet errors in sho int s0

I tried stopping all other services (named, sendmail, apache) with
no benefit.

I also have an RH8 box for a little clan server and it even lags
(P3 1ghz, 2.4.18-24.8.0) but not as badly as the pub (fewer players
in also).

Could this ALSO be related to the kernel?  Or do you think it might be
related to the Realtek network cards in both?  To be fair to the
Realtek cards, I believe I had Intel nic's in them before and also
had problems, but I'm not positive on that one.

Yesterday I setup a new 7.3 box with the latest kernel.  Same problem.  I

record, but it works for me (across several machines running P4's, a

to do a --force to get the older kernel rpm in there.

RE: [hlds_linux] serveur Perf

2003-02-20 Thread Haspers
Does everyone experiencing this lag/performance issue using RH 7.2 or 7.3?
Does this problem only occurs with 7.2? Someone tried RH8?

What would be the best OS for hosting the HLDS? We currently use 7.3 but
with some Xeon machines we are experiencing strange lag (freezes for a
second sometimes).

Try this command just before you try to run the HLTV again:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

PS. Some people are really weird ;)

Re: [hlds_linux] TOS packet priority?

2003-02-20 Thread Mike
Normally the TOS field will be used within private networks to allow classification of
packets.  By classifying you can then define policing and shaping.  This is used mostly
over slow links <1mb.  My question is if the internet routers at various isp's are 
using
this field, and everyone starts tweaking their traffic to high priority, will it really
have any effect in the long run, and is it in the best interest of the gaming community
to actually think that game traffic is high priority?  If we lose a packet or two in
Cstrike, does it really make that much of a differnce?

It most probably wouldn't be bad. The question is, would it be any
good. A few years a go most TCP/IP implementations ignored the TOS
field and the same was true for the majority of routers. I'm not
sure if that changed much by now. I know that quite a few routers

I have tried this "trick" with manipulating the tos packet priority with
iptables and it really doesn't seem to do much, unless of course your hoses
are really tight.

One engineer at Intel working with the e1000 driver for linux thought it was
probably a waste of CPU cycles. He is probably right, the 4.4.19 driver
contained improvements for UDP packet handling and it had a very good effect
on the daily player count on our servers (not only hl-cs).

Having it coded in the server would be much better that using iptables (i.e.
the same way as SSH and other programs do).

[hlds_linux] TOS packet priority?

2003-02-20 Thread Kevin J. Anderson
An interesting conversation just popped up on the bf1942 linux server port
list, as Im sure some of you that Ive seen on it already know, but I thought
it would be relevant to hlds, and was curios whether this is implemented, or
has even been considered for the linux hlds server?

BTW, to make this easy for Ryan, I looked up the syntax by looking for the
relevant piece of code in the telnet SRPM. Here's the needed piece, from
command.c:

/* net is the socket handle */
int tos = IPTOS_LOWDELAY;   /* Low Delay bit */
if ((setsockopt(net, IPPROTO_IP, IP_TOS,
(void *)&tos, sizeof(int)) < 0)
&& (errno != ENOPROTOOPT))
perror("telnet: setsockopt (IP_TOS) (ignored)");

and this is also interesting...

> Hi, can you explain how to do that using IPTABLES?

Here's the command I'm using for my Tribes 2 servers. A similar command
specifying your BF1942 port should work as well.

iptables -A OUTPUT -t mangle -p udp --source-port 28000:28099
-j TOS --set-tos Minimize-Delay

(That should all be on one line.)

This affects all UDP packets leaving from ports 28000-28099.

and someone also threw out this url
http://lartc.org/wondershaper/

what do you guys think?  anyone know if this is actually coded into the
linux server? would that be good? bad?
