Re: [LUAU] HOSEF mirror access via FTP?

Scott,

Looks like IPv6 connectivity to mirror.hosef.org is restored.  However, 
the FTP daemon isn't accepting connections over IPv6.

Thanks, Tony. We use vsftp, and this variable is controlled by the
listen setting. I had

#listen_ipv6=YES

commented out for obvious reasons. It is now active and has replaced

listen=YES

listen
If enabled, vsftpd will run in standalone mode. This means that vsftpd
must not be run from an inetd of some kind. Instead, the vsftpd
executable is run once directly. vsftpd itself will then take care of
listening for and handling incoming connections.

Default: NO

listen_ipv6
Like the listen parameter, except vsftpd will listen on an IPv6 socket
instead of an IPv4 one.  This parameter and the listen parameter are
mutually exclusive.

Default: NO


You should be good to go, now. I spent a fair amount of time since we
last wrote working on performance tuning. We spent our first week
completely saturating our 100M link. After limiting the concurrent FTP
connections, and reducing the max rate, everyone now seems to be
getting a fair slice.

Well the good news is that once I can get some reviews of some gig switches
done, I can upgrade that link to gig. I just don't have any spare gig
switches laying around. Due to limited rack space, I need at least 24 ports
and once the reviews are done, voila...

Thanks.  You might also want to take a look at ftp.hosef.org.  Is that 
supposed to point at mirror.hosef.org or to the website?


Lastly, you can proxy IPv6 connections to the IPv4-only website by adding 
something like:


# IPv6 proxy for 69.163.192.65

ServerName hosef.org
ServerAlias www.hosef.org
ProxyRequests off
ProxyPass / http://69.163.192.65/
ProxyPassReverse / http://69.163.192.65/
ProxyPreserveHost on


to your apache config on mirror.hosef.org.  Then add mirror's IPv6 address 
as an  RR to hosef.org and www.hosef.org in your DNS.  YMMV.

That is at Dreamhost where hosef.org is hosted. It's never been part
of our naming scheme for the mirror.

I use lighttpd, not apache, and, I don't understand why I want to do
this. It seems to add more layers of complexity. We only host
mirror.hosef.org and mirrors.hosef.org at UH. If these domains are
working okay, then this task is done. The website is another task for
another time.

It was a suggestion on how to provide IPv6 connectivity to hosef.org using 
mirror as the proxy server if you so choose.  Does that make it more 
clear?  A proxy isn't complicated to setup, but since you're running 
lighttpd and I don't have a tested proxy/reverse-proxy config for lighttpd 
you're on your own on that.

Got it. I understand. Thanks, Tony, not only for the suggestion but
also for the example.

To ease management and to facilitate uptime, I moved www.hosef.org,
hosef.org, and lists.hosef.org to Dreamhost a few years ago. Before
your direction, I had not really considered IPv6 or what I was
supposed to do about it. Now that mirrors is handled, I think I can
get the other domains up to speed via our host and their DNS settings.

I'll follow up when finished to make sure things are working okay.

Ideally it would be better to get Dreamhost to support IPv6 directly but 
the last news on that was a year ago on their wiki.  The proxy suggestion 
gets you going while waiting for Dreamhost to get off their rear end. 
2012 will be an interesting year...

I understand. Sustainability and maintenance are key. I will count on
Dreamhost for this. I'd rather not let resolution to the hosef domain
depend upon the uptime of the more volatile mirror.
