RE: [leaf-devel] LEAF vs. Smoothwall

2004-02-04 Thread Peter Mueller
 I would guess that it was a problem either with a USB DSL 
 modem or with PPPoE.

Also, cable modems sometimes confuse dhcpcd/PPPoE setups with BOOTP.

Is there anyone out there using BOOTP-dhcpcd or USB-PPPoE setup?  Did LEAF
auto detect?

RE: [leaf-devel] Re: kernel 2.4.22

2003-08-27 Thread Peter Mueller
Hi Jacques,

 Any other ideas/suggestions floating around ?

Yes, 1 related to the kernel and 2 not, but Bering related..

-Iptables should have tcp-window-size patch for stateful inspection from
patch-o-matic added.
-Poptop has a 'newish' feature in 1.1.4 beta called bcrelay (broadcast
relay) that is very very useful in certain situations.  The CVS version of
this is 100% better than the old version.  Richard has been recommending
people to use the CVS version, so maybe Bering should too? :D
-Zebra (routing software) has forked and should be updated.  The new fork
with 2 releases, Quagga, is already in use at Redhat  HP  a few other
places.  It is much better for OSPF and is more actively maintained, since
most of the mailing list migrated there.  I think one of the Bering crew
packaged my old version of Zebra, so here's a heads up that Quagga
(www.quagga.net) should be used instead.

Cheers!

Peter

RE: [leaf-devel] New project member introductions

2003-02-24 Thread Peter Mueller
Hi Leaf members,

 All new project members,
 Please post a message introducing yourself to our development 
 community.
 Thanks.

Some of you already know me from my earlier newbie postings to the lists
;).

I am working on customizing LEAF systems for use in HA-environments.
Initially my focus is with a Linux-HA replacement for Cisco routers that
cost an order of magnitude less and perform better, are more dynamic, etc.
Never pay $1000+ for an 8-meg stick of RAM again! :)

I have completed kpalived.lrp for use with Bering-uClibc + libc 225 on CF,
IDE, or similar (~5mb+) larger storage devices. Keepalived
(http://www.keepalived.org) uses the VRRP protocol for failover.  In this
case VRRP is the same as Cisco's HSRP with IPSEC authentication support.
Please see my previous post in leaf-user for full details,
http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg12772.html.

In the future I hope to add CF+Keepalived, CF + Keepalived + LVS
(load-balancing), and CF versions of Bering-uClibc distributions, depending
on if people will actually use it.  Someday soon I will also actually upload
this stuff to the LEAF pages!

[leaf-devel] kpalived.lrp now available, [minor] update to bgpd.lrp and zebra.lrp

2003-02-04 Thread Peter Mueller
I have completed my high-availability package for .lrp systems,
kpalived.lrp, based on Alexandre Cassen's excellent open-source software.
Due to limitations in keepalived's code AFAIK it wouldn't compile on glibc
2.0.x.  This version was compiled on gcc 2.2.x system.  My LRP system is
Bering uClibc + libc225 and it works fine for me, YMMV.

FYI, It is very possible that keepalive might compile on a gcc 2.1.x or
uClibc system.  I'm unfortunately not a programmer nor did I have a 2.1.x or
2.0.x system lying around.  I didn't think tinkering with makefiles 
destroying existing machines was such was a good idea.  If you get it to
compile on one of those platforms (especially 2.0.x) please let me know!

I created a few packages to provide libraries that Keepalived needs.  You
need to download these and add them to your syslinux.cfg file in order for
kpalived.lrp to work.  Here's the list of files: (Sorry for the size.  I did
strip what I could, it's unfortunate that all these lib files are so damned
big and required)
http://download.sidestep.com/lrp/kpalived.lrp 33244
http://download.sidestep.com/lrp/libcrpto.lrp 342800
http://download.sidestep.com/lrp/libpopt.lrp 26598
http://download.sidestep.com/lrp/libssl2.lrp 81400
http://download.sidestep.com/lrp/libz.lrp 26766

I have also modified zebra  bgpd (by Eric Kiser -
www.eric.kiser.com/glacier.htm) to include /etc/init.d files.  The binaries
are still gcc 2.0.x.  Note : I needed to install an additional library in
order to make these function with Bering-uClibc.  I've listed it below.
http://download.sidestep.com/lrp/zebra.lrp 164145
http://download.sidestep.com/lrp/bgpd.lrp 57368
http://download.sidestep.com/lrp/libm.lrp 142068

Could someone please put these on the sourceforge or mirror page somewhere?
This is not my website and I'm able to provide these files only for a little
while, especially if there's too much usage.  FYI this is my first LRP so
please be gentle in your flames ;)

Thanks much,

Peter Mueller

Keepalived 1.0.0

Mailing List Information:   http://www.keepalived.org/mailinglist.html
Documentation:  http://www.keepalived.org/documentation.html

Summary:Keepalived VRRPv2
Name:   Keepalived
Version:1.0.0
Source: keepalived.1.0.0.tar.gz
URL:http://www.keepalived.org
Copyright:  GPL
Description:

Keepalived is an excellent implementation of VRRP, the same protocol that
Cisco bases HSRP on.  This configuration of Keepalived is setup for use 
with the Zebra routing package for HA-linux routers running bgp v4.  It's
easy to modify for vanilla-HA or other routing packages.

I compiled Keepalived on a RH 7.2 x86-SMP-based system for use with
Bering-uClibc + libc225.  AFAIK Keepalived does not compile on gcc 2.0.x,
but it might compile on uClibc.  Please write me an email if you can get
it to work.

Please modify the keepalived.conf file with your own settings.  I'd rather
not get email from your routers :).

Best of luck,

Peter Mueller

Subject: RE: [leaf-user] shorewall and keepalived


Hi Charles,

 I am just curious if anyone has used the shorewall package as well as 
 keepalived on the same system.  And how did you overcome the 
 issue of both 
 shorewall and keepalived wanting to do VRRP for the ip 
 addresses?  Just got 
 this dropped in my lap and not really sure how to proceed with this.

I am getting close to getting something working with LRP  keepalived.  I
was planning on posting both a keepalived LRP (using, as it turns out,
bering-uclibc + libc225 compat) and an image of my LRP when it's done, but
you're welcome to what I have in the meantime.  Just drop me a mail
off-list.

Peter

RE: [leaf-devel] bering + cf-ide + zebra + VRRP (keepalived) - pr oblem(s) with lib

2003-01-29 Thread Peter Mueller
 Some of the names are rather out of date. I've updated a 
 bunch, but many
 still remain. The information still applies unless the 
 variant _implicitly_
 states that it is glibc-2.1, glibc-2.2, or uClibc.

gotcha

  Could someone compile keepalived-1.0.0 and send me the 
 keepalived and
  genhash binaries?  I don't have a RH5.2/gcc 2.0.7 system 
 around and I'd
  rather not go through all that hassle for one compile :(.
 
 Your going to need to re-compile a kernel patched with LVS as well.

Why do I need an LVS patch in my kernel?  I am already recompiling my kernel
with smp, i586, IDE, and tulip so this is not an issue; I just want to know
what is going on :).

Is this kind of thing listed in a devel-FAQ somewhere?  With the exeception
of http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=1438group_id=13751,
http://sourceforge.net/docman/?group_id=13751 doesn't seem very informative.

Thanks much,

Peter

Hi Lynn,

Sorry for the reply format, I'm unfortunately using OWA.  Thanks so much for
the quick response, it sure made things clear for me.  I read the FAQ but
for assumed that this wasn't the case with a 2.4.20 system.  I was thinking
that since there is quite a few out of date LRP documentation all around
that it was likely that this was just one more in the pile.  Oops!

Your not compiling it on a glibc-2.0.7 system like Debian Slink or

This is a requirement for all glibc-dependant binaries used with Bering.

[leaf-devel] bering + cf-ide + zebra + VRRP (keepalived) - problem(s) with lib

2003-01-27 Thread Peter Mueller
Hi list,

I'm having some issues getting a package to run under my setup.  I have a
modified bering 1.0 image placed on a 256-mb flash disk that I interact with
using a CF-IDE adapter.  I have taken the JNilo's config from
http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/jnilo/bering/latest/development/kernel/2.4
.20/ and added in 586, smp, IDE, tulip, and eepro100 to it.

I've got everything working great on this setup until I get to trying to
create my own LRP package.  I'm trying to add HSRP cisco-like failover of
interfaces using http://www.keepalived.org/, a package I consider to be the
strongest Linux implementation out there (AFAIK).

The package I'm trying to LRP'ize (keepalived) has a few package
requirements - popt, libssl, and libcrypto.  I used JNilo's libpopt.lrp and
libssl.lrp packages, and created my own packages for the /lib/libssl.so.2
and /lib/libcrypto.so.2 dependencies.  Theoretically all dependencies would
be filled and everything would start humming along merrily..

Unfortunately I seem to get a segmentation fault immediately after a
/usr/local/sbin/keepalived try, and I don't understand why.  I compiled on
the same machine with a real HD with optimization flag -02 and stripped the
binary.  These seemed like safe options.  Does anyone know why I'd get a
segfault right away or have any ideas on what to try?

(TM?)FYI, I'm not a programmer so I don't know much about debugging
segfaults.  I can provide .lrp or any other packages upon request.  I was
planning on forwarding kpalived.lrp to the community afterwards to add
support for VRRP to LRP projects.

Thanks much,

Peter
