Maybe a silly question, but you _are_ escaping the $, right?
rmdir won't work on a file anyway - rm sys\$command is what you ran?

yeah.. heh took me 2 tries before i remembered about the esacpe..  thing is it 
says the file is a directory when i try rm..

im just going to make another template since this was a minimal insall. this 
time when i ran perl cpan config  i was smart enough not to do it after 
spending hours installing packages :)

If you don't escape, you're trying to "rm sys" cause I assume the
command variable would be empty.. which would lead to that problem if
you are in / while doing it...

I have run perl cpan shell many times inside a vserver host without any
problems..

i figured it should run... there has to be something inherently wrong 
somewhere in the base install package then. something to do with terminal 
definitions or paths im not sure which as i have not looked at the line of 
the error in readline.. 

once i figure out rproute2 so i can put mutiple public internet connections 
from different providers on one box with multiple nics and multiple networks, 
then i can go back to this cpan problem.

Did you look at lsattr or fuser output for the file?

honestly no. i have so much causing me grief at this moment that i did not 
bother to take time on it. i just wiped the /vservers partition clean and 
reinstalled.. since this was a template install it was the first on the 
partition.

[Vserver] need a point in the right direction in certain kernel networking settings

2005-09-24 Thread Chuck

I am running the following kernel compiled from vanilla sources and the 
vs2.1.0-rc2 patch. No other patches have been applied.
The base system is Gentoo 2005.1 except with above kernel.

prometheus linux # uname -a
Linux prometheus 2.6.13.1-vs2.1.0-rc2 #2 SMP Sat Sep 24 13:36:00 EDT 2005 i686 
Pentium III (Katmai) GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

Ok here is my network setup so you see what I am up against. Need to be sure I 
have the proper options set in the kernel for this to work.

For this machine we have 3 different internet providers tying to 3 routers and 
3 switches and an internal private network on another switch not connected to 
the outside..

 totally unique networks and ip blocks. The machine has a 4 port ethernet card 
in it. I have only dealt with 3 networks so far and won't add the 
complication of a 4th until the first 3 work properly. the 4th should just be 
a clone of the other public setting methods. 

I do not plan to have a guest a member of more than one public network. Most 
of the time it will not even be a member of the private network except in 
special cases. The private net is for communication between hosts (nfs, 
backup etc).

eth0 public 1
eth1 privatenet
eth2 public 2
eth3 down but will be public 3

i need to be positive that the problems i am experiencing are strictly in the 
setups of the nics and my lack of routing skills and not by some missing 
element in the kernel config.

set up alone with the others down, each public nic works perfectly to the 
outside.

symptoms:
eth0 up, eth1 up both work fine.
bring eth2 up and eth0 stops responding to the outside and other machines in 
our network and eth2 responds instead. eth1 privatenet keeps working.
bring eth2 down and eth0 works again to the outside.

below is all of my kernel network code except device driver for the nic, and i 
am also including my vserver kernel setup.

if anyone would be so kind as to review this to see if i have something set 
incorrectly for the above setups it would be much appreciated.

must i have ngnet in the kernel set on with iproute2? do i even need iproute2?
Gentoo network scripts give the option of selecting ifconfig or iproute2 to 
use in static ip setups along with others that I won't be using such as 
wireless or dhcp.


I also have the following in an init script which runs before the ethernets 
are started. vprocunhide runs later.

start() {
 ebegin "Setting /proc options."
 /bin/echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts
 /bin/echo "0" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/accept_source_route
 /bin/echo "0" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/accept_redirects
 /bin/echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_ignore_bogus_error_responses
 /bin/echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_syncookies
 eend 0
}

I had read an article somewhere that suggested the above settings were good to 
do, and comments on the article agreed, so i did them.
