[leaf-user] SNMP Package

2002-11-21 Thread Cowles, Steve
Sorry if this has been asked before (I did search the archives for snmp),
but has anyone packaged ucd-snmp (or even net-snmp) for leaf/bering? I'm
trying to replace my RH-7.3 firewall with Bering and the only package I
cannot seem to find is snmpd. Everything else is working fine, but I would
like to continue to graph my firewall using MRTG.

thanks for any pointers.

[leaf-user] Runaway Process (Bering) -- I think!

2002-11-22 Thread Cowles, Steve
Installed bering "Bering_1.0-stable_img_bering_1680.bin" with very few
problems on a measly P120/48MB system. This same system ran RH-7.3 prior to
this.

Anyway, I just noticed that when I do a "ps" on this new bering system, the
process ID for any new process is going crazy. Ex: The following are two
ps's within a second of each other (up arrow). Note: the process ID for the
ps command has rolled past 32768.

#

I have scanned all the /var/log files looking for a "respawning to fast"
type of entries, but I don't see anything that stands out. Normal startup
entries along with shorewall logging and sshd auth entries. Thats about it!

I have also tried stopping the ntpd, pptpd, ntpd and snmpd process to see if
they were causing this, but same results. I even plugged in a keyboard to
see if this was the culprit (This is system is headless and is admin'd
through ssh).

FWIW: snmpget from another system does not show the CPU utilization maxed
out, but it would be nice if there was a version of "top" available to help
debug this.

Any ideas on what may be causing this problem? 

thanks
Steve Cowles

Thanks Luis. 

I hate to admit, but I had never heard of the grsecurity patches. I just
finished reading some articles about grsecurity and verified that the bering
supplied kernel actually does contain these patches. i.e. /proc

I feel better now knowing that my system is not going crazy with some kind
of respawning to fast type of problem.

Actually its trying to do a reverse lookup on 192.168.1.254, but it failed.

Actually, the "broadcast" is the netbios node type. i.e. How does this W2K
system announce its MS workgroup/domain affiliation on the network...
broadcast or WINS (Network Neighborhood stuff). This has nothing to do with
DNS.

Although this is OT, from the dhcp-options man pages...

option netbios-node-type uint8;

   The NetBIOS node type option  allows  NetBIOS  over  TCP/IP  clients
   which  are  configurable  to  be  configured  as  described  in  RFC
   1001/1002.  The value is specified as a single octet  which  identi-
   fies the client type.

   Possible node types are:

1B-node: Broadcast - no WINS
2P-node: Peer - WINS only.
4M-node: Mixed - broadcast, then WINS
8H-node: Hybrid - WINS, then broadcast

Although I don't disagree with the above, the DNS suffix is typically
used/set in the connection specific part of ipconfig. i.e. Each interface on
W2K can have a DNS suffix.

Also, this is my personal preference, not a recommended policy. But I
disable W2K's caching server. This fricken thing has caused me more greif
than I care to mention. Try and tell a regular how user to flush the cache.
That will go over real well...

All queries to your DNS server should be non-authoritative (meaning cached)
except for the ones that you have configured your DNS server to be the
"Start of Authority" (SOA). IN which case, you would have a registered
domain.

BTW: Based on the above output of nslookup, your dns server (192.168.70.1)
is not properly configured for reverse loopup queries. i.e. in-addr.arpa
zones

Brad, thanks for posting UML slink image. I have been wanting to compile
ssh-agent/ssh-add for some time now.

To the OP... If you have another linux system on your network with ntpq
installed, you can always type:

# ntpq [hostname of bering/leaf system]
ntpq> peers
...
...

This is how I configured/tested ntpd running on my leaf/bering firewall.

Just a guess here... but I have seen the above when I forget to convert my
script from DOS (CR/LF) to UNIX (LF) format.

Try:
# tr -d '\015'  cbq.sh
# ./cbq.sh

This looks like the standard bash/ash portability issue.

On line 71, either remove the parens or negate their functional
interpretation by the ash shell by escaping them with backslash. i.e. \(

Looks like you have accidently deleted either a backslash (like a line
continuation), quote, double quote or something along those lines prior to
line 181. These errors are tuff to find.

Try adding -x to the shell interpreter on line one of your script. i.e.

#!/bin/bash -x

Then run your script again and watch the output or redirect to another file.
