[leaf-user] uClibc Bering 2.4: Dnsmasq constantly crashing
I've been running uClibc 2.4 since it came out about 5 years ago. Till this week I've had no problems. Now DNSMASQ keeps stopping, and I can't figure out why. None of the logs have any indication. Nothing on the network changed (that I know of). When I start DNSMASQ it runs for several minutes or several hours, but eventually it quits. Can anyone tell me how to find and fix the problem?

[leaf-user] Backing up SSH
I'm building a new uClibc 3.1 router and have added sshd and ssh. I need to know the proper way to backup the host and user information. The logical way to backup the user info is to backup all of /root/.ssh. Can anyone help? - This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Register now and save $200.

[leaf-user] LINUXRC Error
I had a working uClibc 3.1 system running from the HD. Now when I boot I the packages load then I get the following error: "/linuxrc: source: line 277: can't open /var/lib/lrpkg/root.dev.own" followed by a kernel panic. I tried replacing root.lrp and got the same result, so I figured the problem was the configdb. I renamed that file and tried again. Same result. Can anyone tell me what might be causing this problem? - Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

Is > there > If you are willing to use older hardware, there is an inexpensive solution, the Nortel Contivity 1500 VPN. The Contivity is just a 286 PC with plastic covers over most of the ports so the buyers didn't know what they were getting. The Contivity has a medium footprint (12"x10.5"x3.5"), includes a hard drive, and all the ports you would want on a PC. Back when the Contivity was current technology I replaced Nortel's software with LEAF 2.1/Freeswan. I ran any number of tests against Nortel, Cisco, and my new LEAF VPN. In every case the LEAF beat them hands down. That was impressive because the LEAF was also running Shorewall, SSH, DNS, and DHCP. My only complaint with the Contivity 1500 is it's loud case fan. I replaced mine with a $12 quiet fan and it works great. Of course you can replace the hard drive with a CF card (you will need a CF-IDE connector), and you get a totally silent machine that doesn't even need a fan. The box is a bit heavier than it looks because the electronics are totally encased in a steel RF shield (a DOD requirement). The Contivity 1500 is no longer supported by Nortel, so they flood the market. I got a few when a company I know was tossing about 50 of them out to salvage. I saw one for sale on Ebay for $79. I'm sure if you look you can find more of them at that price. I have other smaller LEAF machines, but, as you said, they cost $300-$400. Roger McClurg - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

[leaf-user] DST Change Files
Did anyone create new files for the Daylight Savings Time change? I realize I can fudge the time zone values to EST4EDT, but then I have to set it back and at the end of DST put it back. I run the gamut of NIX machines so I've applied patches, compiled the TZ files, and just upgraded the DST files from the media distribution. I waited till the last minute to do my LEAF machines. I kept watching the mailing list, but never say anything. What did everyone do that I missed? BTW, I'm running BUC 2.42 if it makes any difference. - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

[leaf-user] Hdparm
Dear list, I was wondering if anyone has compiled a version of hdparm for Bering uClibc 2.4.1. I created an hdparm.lrp to spin down the hard drive after a few minutes inactivity on my old Bering 1.2 machines, and now that I'm updating them to the current uClib release it doesn't work (big surprise there).

[leaf-user] Re: PATH setting permanently
I don't know if anyone ever answered your question, but a simple way to
add the path is to create a script file and put it into /etc/init.d. I
have a utility script that does a number of things I want done after
everything else in the boot sequence is done. The script below would do
what you want. Copy it, and save it in /etc/init.d. Backup etc and reboot.

Subject: [leaf-user] PATH setting permanently
Hello all
I'm trying to add a permanent PATH to LEAF/BERING Shorewall
I tried to write this:
PATH=${PATH}:/opt/mplayer-sound/bin/
export PATH
into several .conf files including
/etc/profile
/etc/crontab
/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf
/etc/shorewall/start
but nothing changes whatsoever
echo $PATH gives:
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin
Typing as root:
PATH=${PATH}:/opt/mplayer-sound/bin/
I get:
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/opt/mplayer-sound/bin/
which is ok.
Please, how can I set it permanently ?
Thanks Roberto

[leaf-user] Re: leaf-user digest, Vol 1 #2624 - 3 msgs
Michael, I have a number of home office sites connected to the corporate office via Bering boxes running IPSEC VPNs. The VPNs have been as stable as rocks. Our phones are VOIP and our email system is Lotus Notes. If you know anything about Notes, you know it will kill all available bandwidth when it sends or receives mail. This is disasterous to a VOIP conversation especially outgoing (We are using cable with only 256K outbound.) I was able to counter Notes by using QOS. I allotted fixed bandwidth to VOIP. Unfortunately I am no expert on this subject and still have some bugs to work out, but for the most part our phone calls work perfectly.

There is no QoS, load balancing, nothing -- perhaps, you can imagine the problems they are having. They are not interested in a third, point-to-point T-1, because it is more than double the cost to their Internet T-1's, &c. How have you designed a solution for a similar situation?

A friend using Bering 1.2 is having problems getting dns information from his Verizon DSL connection.

[leaf-user] Bering uClibc and MRTG
I upgraded one of my machines from Bering 1.2 to Bering uClibc 2.2.2. Netsnmpd is up and running. Snmpwalk from my MRTG server returns data, but MRTG can't get the data from the ethernet interfaces as it did on the previous machines. Does anyone know what needs to be changed to get MRTG to work with with Breing uClibc? BTW I'm using MRTG 2.9.17 on a Red Hat 8.0 server.
