 I use HDD as /var/log folder, however log rotate was failed by Operation not

 so below:
 
 savelog -g wheel -m 640 -u root -c 4 /var/log/shorewall.log
 chgrp: /var/log/shorewall.log.new: Operation not permitted
 ln: /var/log/shorewall.log.0: No such file or directory
 mv: unable to rename `/var/log/shorewall.log.new': No such file or directory

 Rotated `/var/log/shorewall.log' at Thu Aug 26 12:13:35 UTC 2004.
 
 Does MSDOS partition does not support file permission?

Indeed it doesn't.

Your options are basically:

Use a different filesystem on that partition, or hack savelog to not do the
chgrp stuff.

I would suggest switching fs. And while I'm at it I'd suggest switching to
ext3 or reiser, because of they're journaling filesystems. (No fsck'ing
after powerfailures etc.)

[leaf-user] Re: (Still) unable load initrd booting uClib 2.2 on Soekris 4501

2004-08-27 Thread Eric House
  [can't run uClib 2.2 on Soekris]

 It seems like you're recycling an old syslinux.cfg file - since
 mine also includes an entry LEAFCFG=/dev/hda1:msdos (and in turn,
 nothing for tmp_size and syst_size, since those can be set in the
 leaf.cfg file). So, rather than just replace the lrps, you might
 want to use all of the original files from the image (after
 adjusting them so they'll boot from /dev/hda1)

I tried this.  Still no luck, and still the same symptoms: I get the
normal Soekris bootup stuff printed to my minicom window, then
syslinux.dpy is displayed, then linux ., and then garbage once
it reaches the point where it should be loading initrd.

Here's what I did, starting from scratch:
* reformated my CF card on my Debian laptop using 'mkfs -tmsdos /dev/hde1'
* mounted the CF card on /mnt/hde1
* mounted the Bering uClib 2.2 .bin file on /mnt/loop
* 'cp -p /mnt/loop/* /mnt/hde1'
* replaced /mnt/hde1/initrd.lrp with initrd_ide_cd.lrp (renamed initrd.lrp)
* edited syslinux.cfg, adding 'console=ttyS0,19200n8' after 'linux'
  and changing 'fd0u1680' to 'hda1'
* edited leaf.cfg, changing 'fd0u1680' to 'hda1'
* edited syslinux.dpy to remove non-printing characters
* unmounted /mnt/hde1 and ran 'syslinux -s /dev/hde1'

At that point I tried booting off the CF card and got the same old
thing.

Any suggestions what to try next?  Is it possible the formatting, via
'mkfs -tmsdos', is bad?  In the past I think I've let my digital
camera format the cards.  If the formatting were bad, would it take
until after syslinux.dpy had been displayed and the kernel loaded to
show up?

Is it possible that the kernal, rather than initrd, is the problem
here?  Once the kernel's loaded it takes over from syslinux, does it
not?  What if the kernel didn't understand serial consoles, for
example?  Would that look like what I'm seeing?

Thanks,

--Eric

[leaf-user] Dachstein reboot

2004-08-27 Thread GD
Hello, thank you for reading this email.

I have a problem with Dachstein.  I don't know where I
should start trouble-shooting.  What is happening is
this:

Dachstein firewall set up to take static IP address,
with one Windows server behind it.  Firewall has ports
opened for remote service, web service, ftp and SSH. 
If I use remote desktop to get to the Windows server
behind the firewall, or just go sit in front of the
Windows server, and start BROWSING, the firewall will
reboot itself for no apparent reason.  What I did on
the Windows server was simply browsing, clicking
through some web sites.  The firewall will reboot
itself typically after several minutes of browsing on
the Windows machine.  

I looked through old messages but didn't see anything
like this, I suspect it might be a hardware problem,
but am not quite sure.  What could cause the firewall
reboot itself?  Could anyone point me to the right
direction?  Thanks

GD

one thing to try is to use the initrd_ide_cd.lrp from 
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/leaf/bin/packages/uclibc-0.9/20/initrd_ide_cd.lrp?rev=HEADcontent-type=application/octet-stream

Ever since the Sourceforge staff turned off the cron jobs, the export of 
packages has not been happening regularly, so it may well be you're 
trying to use an old initrd (since that was what still was linked on the 
packages page). I've just changed the packages page so all links point 
to CVS again (so we again have to live with the at times flaky ViewCVS 
access), but at least the links on our packages page should now 
definately point to packages that are known to work.

Is it possible the formatting, via
'mkfs -tmsdos', is bad?  
Not really - that's what I always do too (even though I do it on the 
Soekris box, after booting into pxeinstall).

If the formatting were bad, would it take
until after syslinux.dpy had been displayed and the kernel loaded to
show up?
Not usually - I would expect that it wouldn't be able to load the kernel 
either.

Is it possible that the kernal, rather than initrd, is the problem
here?  
Possible, but unlikely - since I use the exact same kernel as you do 
(the one from the disk-image).

At the moment, my best guess is that you indeed got an old package of 
initrd - if that's the case, I'm very sorry about the inconvenience 
(since that was our fault - you obviously went to the right place to 
get the package).

If that doesn't help either, I'm pretty much out of ideas - so lets hope 
that the right initrd will indeed solve the problem ;-)

Re: [leaf-user] diff and talk packages

2004-08-27 Thread Martin Hejl
Hi Jaap,
I have converted some programs that I find useful to bering-uclibc
packages, namely talk client/daemon and diff.
I have built then using buildtool/buildpacket and for anyone interested,
I have placed them on my website: www.phys.uu.nl/~eldering/leaf
(packages and sources including buildtool makefiles).
Maybe the developers are willing to include them in contrib section?
I just added them to CVS (and to the packages page, since I needed to 
update that to hopefully fix Eric House's problem). They'll probably not 
yet be accessible via the packages page (it usually takes a couple of 
hours), but they should be soon.

Sorry it took so long - we hadn't forgotten you, and we surely 
appreciate your packages. We simply took a pretty long time figuring out 
where the packages (and the sources/build instructions - those will be 
in CVS soon too) should go, to keep things clean, without making the 
directory structure even more confusing than it already is to a new user.

Thanks again for your work.
Martin

Thanks, that's nice to hear.

I hope people find them useful. Any feedback is always welcome: I'll be
glad to try fix bugs or answer questions.
