Re: sendmail error?

2002-03-20 Thread Jon R. Doyle

Are you using UUCP? What way did you do the re-install? Did you build
from source, use a preset mc and m4? Or do you have an RPM?

What is the platform SuSE? If this is the case go into Yast and config.
Sendmail to you needs, there is a section under Admin someplace (Yast is
not in front of me) that has Sendmail config, even an expert menu. Exit
and call SuSEconfig, this will rebuild the cf, restart Sendmail with
rcsendmail restart.

uux BTW calls commands on another host (like rsh rcp) and is part of the
uucp package.

Re: Bogomips S390(IFL) / Intel

2002-03-20 Thread Moloko Monyepao

Mark,

I wanted to run multiple Linux/390 LPARs but with tthis problem I ended up giving this 
Linux/390 lpar the whole IFL. I also ran the following command to test how long does 
it takes to compile sendmail on my Linux/390 Lpar as compared to Intel, the command is 
:
time sh Build from Intel it takes about 1 min and from Linux/390 it took about 3min. 
I also tried to increase my storage to 1024 and gave it the expanded storage of 512 
but that didn't make a different. When it started rejecting connections the CPU load 
was very high, about 10. My Lpar is connected via an escon channel to the 2216 which 
is shared among 4 other system. I dont thing that will be the case because the other 
lpar performs OK. 

Please assist

 Other people have pointed out the absolute uselessness of BogoMIPS for
 anything and how they are _not_ generic across platforms, so I won't dwell
 on that.  What I don't understand is why you are doing anything other than
 dedicating that IFL to your Linux/390 LPAR.  Are you running multiple
 Linux/390 LPARs on that one processor?  If so, you're probably asking for
 trouble.  During the period of time the server was rejecting connections,
 what was your CPU load?  High?  Low?  It may or may not be a lack of
 processor power, but unless you have some data you're never going to know
 one way or the other.  What kind of network connection does this LPAR use?
 Are there any/many other systems on the same subnet?  What kind of collision
 rate are you seeing?  And on, and on, and on.  If you don't have any
 measurements, there's no possible way to tell if your system will be able to
 handle a real life load or not.

 Higher is better, BogoMIPS should also be generic across platforms.
 
 The mainframe is running very high load and is getting behind with
 mail. Due to the high load, it starts to block connections which is no
 good at all (might need to move it back). At this stage I am only
 running outbound mail through the box, which is not really where the

2002-03-20 Thread Rich Smrcina

It can be difficult to tell without some sort of instrumentation or analysis
of how Linux is performing.   At the first hint of a performance problem, the
typical solution in the Intel world is to throw more or bigger boxes at
it.  We don't always have that luxury in the 390 world.  Therefore alot of
shops have monitoring tools to tell us where the problem is so that we can
come up with a game plan on how to fix it.

Running in an LPAR you are somewhat limited in that you can only use Linux
tools and the HMC displays.  I do not know what monitoring packages exist for
Linux (besides top), that will give you the information that you (and we)
need to work this out.  Of course under VM there are a number of choices.

While you are testing sendmail, what does the HMC indicate about the CPU load
if your IFL?  Also, does the IFL use dedicated CHPIDs to the DASD?  If so,
what is their utilization?  As mentioned earlier, try dedicating the IFL to
this Linux partition (as long as there are no other LPARs that need it).

 need to work this out.  Of course under VM there are a number of choices.

top will show you process data
sard will show you disk statistics providing your vendor ships that feature
(look in proc/partitions and you should see stuff like..
2264   80043264 hdd 23376 219526 1943138 1722140 14309 266197 2244104 2311340 0 
801060 4033700
)
vmstat will provide paging rate information (especially handy is vmstat 1)

Sendmail defaults to stopping listening based on load average, the value it
picks may be a bit low for the S/390 i/o v cpu.

Look in /etc/sendmail.cf for

# load average at which we just queue messages
#O QueueLA=8

# load average at which we refuse connections
#O RefuseLA=12

remove the comment, set values, and restart sendmail.

The default sendmail tuning is fairly defensive for a small box. You can
materially improve its performance, especially for stuff like mailing list
work by tuning it. There are two favoured techniques for that. #1 is to
get a copy of the book and/or read the sendmail faqs in full, the other
is to replace it with exim, postfix or qmail 8)

Re: Bogomips S390(IFL) / Intel

2002-03-20 Thread Dave Jones

Hi, Moloko.

As others have already pointed out, to see what the problem(s) is/are with
your sendmail Linux
application, we need to have some system data collected. Since your
configuration is Linux running in
an LPAR (without VM, correct?) you are limited to using native Linux
performance data collection
and analysis tools.

Try the following ideas and let the list know the results.
1) use the standard Linux top command to see what process are running. Use
the f -u -enter option
to see what the process is waiting for.
2) netstat -s will show the network statistics in detail.
3) download and install the RMFPMS package from IBM (see:
http://www.s390.ibm.com/rmf/rmfhtmls/pmweb/pmlin.htm). It comes with a cool
Java client (Windows or Linux) that displays the performance data in real
time.

If none of these things give you enough data to fix your sendmail problems,
it might be worth it to run Linux under z/VM, instead of in an LPAR, just to
be able to get accurate S/390 system (channel, processor, memory, network,
etc.) data.

Good luck.

Dave

  Well, that sounds like a mistake.  Well, there's always FIPS on an
  x86 Linux Distro to help make room for a _real_ OS on your PC.  :-)

  Sorry for the cruelty, but your choice is to either burn the images
  so that W2K can read them or to install a more flexible OS.  While
  you'll lose the pretty HercGUI tool (which I must admit is very
  pretty) there are other reasons to run Linux under such a system.

  Though I would suspect it'd be confusing to run Linux 390 on top of
  hercules on top of another Linux system;  Just make sure that you've
  properly set up /etc/issue (and issue.net) to remind you of which is
  which...  :-)

It sure sounds to me like RefuseLA in the sendmail config.  If you have

Assuming that the system itself is still adequately responsive, I'd try

Tom,

From what I can tell, your routing looks right.  The ifconfig output is
really strange, though:
RX packets:882347 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

_Something_ is sending you lots of packets, but nothing is going the other
way.  Just out of curiosity, have you tried downloading the latest OCO
modules for the OSA card that match your kernel level, and see if they act
any differently?  (I know they've opened up the source code for them, but I
don't want you to have to rebuild your kernel just to poke at this problem.)

Also, pinging the local IP address from Linux doesn't show anything, really.
The interface doesn't even get exercised by that, so unless it _fails_, it
means very little.  You've tried pinging the gateway router by it's IP
address?  Does that change the TX packets numbers on the ifconfig command
any?

Re: Authentication on Linux using PAM to a z/OS RACF server

2002-03-20 Thread Rick Troth

 In my case I was copying the /var tree and  it left out /var/run/printer
 and /var/run/.nscd_socket which are both symbolic links to elsewhere.

You sure they were sym-links and not socket files?
Sym-link should have an l in the far left of 'ls -l' output.
A named socket would have an s in the far left of the same listing.

Named sockets never get copied,  from all the docs and refs I've seen.
Files which do get copied are:  plain, directory (sort of),
char special, block special, symbolic link, and named pipe
(this last one not to be confused with named socket).

The two in question should be recreated automagically as needed.



Re: Bogomips S390(IFL) / Intel

2002-03-20 Thread Jon Nolting

As far as looking at the CPU use, you can use the RMF
Partition Data Report running in any other partition
on the CEC to view the CPU utilization of the IPL
partition.  Set the RMF interval down on one the other
partitions to 1 minute and collect some data to look
at.

It can be difficult to tell without some sort of
instrumentation or analysis
of how Linux is performing.   At the first hint of a
performance problem, the
typical solution in the Intel world is to throw more
or bigger boxes at
it.  We don't always have that luxury in the 390
world.  Therefore alot of
shops have monitoring tools to tell us where the
problem is so that we can
come up with a game plan on how to fix it.

Running in an LPAR you are somewhat limited in that
you can only use Linux
tools and the HMC displays.  I do not know what
monitoring packages exist for
Linux (besides top), that will give you the
information that you (and we)
need to work this out.  Of course under VM there are
a number of choices.

While you are testing sendmail, what does the HMC
indicate about the CPU load
if your IFL?  Also, does the IFL use dedicated CHPIDs
to the DASD?  If so,
what is their utilization?  As mentioned earlier, try
dedicating the IFL to
this Linux partition (as long as there are no other
LPARs that need it).

On Wednesday 20 March 2002 12:19 am, you wrote:

Re: Samba and Security = server

2002-03-20 Thread Post, Mark K

Bill,

Using security=server just means that the actual authentication takes
place on the other server.  Samba still has to prompt you for the
information it needs to have the authentication performed.  If you do have a
PDC already in place, use security=domain instead.  This is actually
lighter in terms of resources used on your PDC, and will provide you with
the behavior you want.  If you do this, you will have to add your Samba
system to the domain, which means you will need to create a machine
account for it in the domain before trying to join the domain.  With your
Samba software there is included the full text of the Using Samba book
from O'Reilly and Associates.  It's in html and other formats.  Take a good
look at it, it is _full_ of valuable information about setting up Samba and
getting full use out of it.

I tried mapping the share from this machine and I still got prompted for

I would like to try this type of security model (very single signonish)

Resource and object access authorization products

2002-03-20 Thread Froberg, David C

Folks,

We are presently evaluating a package called CA eTrust Access Control, which
provides C2 and some B1 like security controls for resource and object
access authorization.  While we have been exploring SELinux, we ware looking
for something that provides centralized security for applications hosted on
Linux.  Anyone know of any other products we should consider?

Salomon Smith Barney SHARE Presentation

2002-03-20 Thread Post, Mark K

One of the additional presentations that I was waiting for arrived today,
and it's been uploaded to linuxvm.org.  It was session 5534 by Doctor
Robinson titled Linux z/900 at Salomon Smith Barney.  They have Linux/390
in production doing some infrastructure work, with plans to migrate
applications to the platform.

I wasn't sure about the unresolved symols as they seemed to occur after the
dasd driver had already failed.  I'm sure you're correct though.  The
dot/period is needed for the Hercules 3215 interface, and the slash may be an
SDSF thing (something I'm often guilty of myself ;-).

 Ken,

 Did you download the GA code, or something from the rawhide?  What this
 looks like is a kernel module that was compiled with module versioning, and
 a kernel that was not.  Or with/without SMP support (I can never really
 tell).  Just _exactly_ where did you download the files from?  (Both kernel
 and initrd.)

Re: Bogomips S390(IFL) / Intel

2002-03-20 Thread Alan Cox

 sendmail are set a little low, and S/390 processors are simply not as fast
 as Intel for certain tasks, so the load averages are probably going to be
 higher on S/390 than Intel.  If you've got unused capacity, a load average

The load average includes disk wait blocking so in theory its accounting for
most of that. Maybe S/390 just sucks

runs off

Linuxgram Article - GPL Enforceable Binding, Federal Judge Appa rently Thinks

2002-03-20 Thread Post, Mark K

For those interested in such things.  This case involved a company basing
some of their own software on GPL code, and then not releasing the source to
the new product immediately.  One quote from the article:
Evidently the judge never questioned the GPL license, quoted sections of it
at Progress' chief counsel, asked how exactly NuSphere had complied with
this term or that of the thing, indicated that Progress needed to comply
with the license and told MySQL lawyers that they could come back with a new
motion for preliminary injunction if discovery indicated NuSphere hadn't
fully complied with the GPL.
