[CentOS-es] SAMBA + Antivirus
Hola a toda la lista!!! Tengo diversos servidores funcionando con SAMBA, y me gustaría montar algún antivirus que controlará los archivos con los que trabajan los usuarios. Este antivirus me gustaría tenerlo en el servidor ( CentOS v5) pero también que fuera capaz de detectar algún virus para otro OS, ya que los usuarios siguen trabajando con XP SP2.

[CentOS] Strange gpg problem
When I read a message signed by a gpg key that is not already on my keyring I have runaway cpu usage. To end it I have to 'killall gpg' - at which the display returns, but of course it has not connected with the keyserver, so the key is not downloaded and I get a 'signature not verified' error message.. What's more, although the display has returned, I have to 'killall gpg' a second time, to return cpu usage to normal. I'm at a loss where to start troubleshooting this.

Re: [CentOS] system gets suspended automatically!
Sorry for not writing very clearly. here are the details: $ kernel -qa|grep kernel kernel-PAE-2.6.18-53.el5 $ uname -a Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.18-53.el5PAE #1 SMP Mon Nov 12 02:55:09 EST 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux $ rpm -q centos-release centos-release-5-1.0.el5.centos.1 Also, I checked that if I reboot the system without any external attachment (i.e. no mouse, no keyboard, no monitor) and attach these elements later, none of these are recognized. What I want is just a network connected CPU to run the program. That's all. I can control the program running on it using ssh from another machine. I would like to add one more thing is this: when I log into a gui-session (gnome), and run my program on a terminal there, it lasts for 1-2 days before suspension. However, if I log into console-mode (no gui), it lasts only for 4-5 hours before suspension. I again think it is entirely a kernel problem.

Re: [CentOS] system gets suspended automatically!
I'll let others work with you on the kernel version (which we'll assume is OK and a true CentOS install). I would put up a console on the local KVM port to capture the last set of messages before the system hangs -- which might help isolate the problem. From what we've seen so far, it sounds like you might have a hardware problem. The things that I would check are: - power supply (aka losing voltage) - all the system fans (aka thermal shutdown) - memory (run memtest86+ overnight [or longer]) If not that (and still a hardware problem), it is a lot more subtle and will be fun to diagnose Hope this helps (a little) ... -rak- ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

If cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep lm truly identifies 64 bit machines we had some 64 bit CPU's that were not identified. I experimented a little to see if putting a 64 os on these would improve desktop responsiveness and my gross perception was that there was an improvement. Most of the time these desktop units had less than 2 gigs of RAM. However, I may have been seduced by positive expectations. Does anyone know of a way to really determine if this is significant. I recently installed CentOS-5.0-i386 for a mail server that was supposed to be 32 bit, but when I checked it after the install I found it was 64 bit. I decided to take the time to reinstall CentOS-5.0-x86_64. This machine came Vista and was sold to us from Fry's as a 32 bit refurbished Compaq. So being able to tell what is a 32 and 64 cpu and whether running a 32 bit or 64 bit os on a small mail server is worth while might be helpful. Any thoughts?

Thanks! jlc That is an old assumption from the infancy of software raid, less than optimal installed ram, and slower processors. When ram was expensive, you used more swap because it was cheaper. But ram is so much cheaper now that it make no sense to run a machine that needs to touch swap except in an emergency. Not really a valid assumption about install enough memory and swap won't get used. *nixes have a design feature that swaps out programs that aren't used just in case the some other program needs the space. Sun workstations back in the '80s and '90s used to be the worst at this. It was faster to shutdown at night and restart in the morning since leaving the system up all night would result in most everything getting swapped out to disk just in case the space would be needed. Try to use the system in the morning and it would be busy swapping everything back into RAM for quite a while. So with 2GB of RAM on my desktop, I still see 144K of swap getting used with me generating very little activity as I read my e-mail. If my swap went away, I would have a problem if Linux tried to swap back in whatever that 144k of program is. Better to have swap on a RAID volume. Cheers, Dave -- Politics, n.

I have set up the account in kmail, and I know that that part is correct, as it worked on my old, less-secured, imap server. However, I haven't been able so far to make a connection. Do I need 143 udp open? What else must I do to allow me to connect over WAN? You should have port 993 open which provides security via SSL. One can use TLS to initiate connections via port 143, but this may result in unencrypted logins which result in your username and password being sent in clear text across the Internet. You will also have to make provisions to allow mail relaying from the roaming IP for the duration of the authenticated connection (assuming that your mail server is not an open relay which will get it black listed pretty quickly). There are various ways to handle this. We have used WHOSON for years which doesn't require any action on the part of the IMAP client. One can also use SMTP AUTH, POP/IMAP before SMTP, or other methods. It would probably be easier to set up OpenVPN so you can tunnel from the remote systems into your private network, then connect via the private IP address for IMAP and SMTP sending. Once one has generated the proper keys for the OpenVPN connections, it is easy to make the connections (and easy to revoke them as well).

Do I need 143 udp open? What else must I do to allow me to connect over WAN? You should have port 993 open which provides security via SSL. One can use TLS to initiate connections via port 143, but this may result in unencrypted logins which result in your username and password being sent in clear text across the Internet. You will also have to make provisions to allow mail relaying from the roaming IP for the duration of the authenticated connection (assuming that your mail server is not an open relay which will get it black listed pretty quickly). There are various ways to handle this. We have used WHOSON for years which doesn't require any action on the part of the IMAP client. One can also use SMTP AUTH, POP/IMAP before SMTP, or other methods. It would probably be easier to set up OpenVPN so you can tunnel from the remote systems into your private network, then connect via the private IP address for IMAP and SMTP sending. Once one has generated the proper keys for the OpenVPN connections, it is easy to make the connections (and easy to revoke them as well). There are OpenVPN clients for the Microsoft virus, Windows, OS X, and every version of Unix I've used. It sounds very complex. I did try, a little while back, to set up OpenVPN, but couldn't understand the settings that I was asked to give. I read three or four how-tos, without feeling any wiser. I got as far as generating the keys, but the instructions seemed to stop there. Then I bought a book - only to find that it was out of date, and nothing was the same as it said :-( The software was two or three version later and quite different. If you know a good how-to for someone with no previous knowledge I'd be glad to hear of it.

The firewall in the router is correctly set up. I'm not so sure about the software firewall. I'm tempted to turn it off completely until I'm sure everything works correctly, then try to bring it back in. At least that way I'd be sure I was tackling one problem at a time. DNS - local dns is by means of /etc/hosts.

Re: [CentOS] Removing a disc from a software mirror
Alain Spineux wrote: If I needed to remove a disc from a software mirror for a quick backup before a test, how can I remove it cleanly so that it has a good copy of the OS on it? If I use mdadm to fail then remove it, this would be done while CentOS is running (It's a mirror of the system disc) and I suspect the data on it would not be in a clean state? Don't fail the disk, just remove it physicaly or in the BIOS, that way it will be clean. The way to make a filesystem clean is to unmount it while it is still running. If it contains / or any filesystem containing open files, you'll have to shut down. If you are able to unmount, you can fail/remove with the mdadm command and if the drive is a hot-swappable type you don't have to shut down. Then if your test is successful, your disk will be re-syncronized as soon as you put it back. You may not want that. It's easy enough to mdadm --add ... to put it back if you can figure out the underlying device name. If your test fail you need to make your saved disk the good one. I things md choose the disk with the last time stamp as the master to replicate on the second one. Then boot on the saved one, before to reboot and sync both. I'm not sure if this is a timestamp or a count of clean shutdowns. Does anyone know? You could also try to change the partition system ID of your partition(s) to something else than 8e, using fdisk. FD is the 'raid autodetect' type. Setting the drive you don't want to be the master to something else during boot, then later adding it with mdadm --add ... should work.

RE: [CentOS] Removing a disc from a software mirror
I'm not sure if this is a timestamp or a count of clean shutdowns. Does anyone know? Well, the setup wasn't mission critical or I would have imaged it out safely so I proceeded to shutdown the machine and unplug the secondary drive. I then booted and saw the array obviously had a missing component. I did my reconfiguration and it was good. I shutdown, plugged the secondary back in and then booted. The arrays didn't automatically re-establish the pair(?), so I # mdadm /dev/md0 -a /dev/sdb1 and # mdadm /dev/md1 -a /dev/sdb2 as md0 is the /boot partition and md1 is the LVM pv that holds swap and /. It all went well as I had # watch -n1 'cat /proc/mdstat' running. Not as slick as the higher end machines with hardware raid and hot swappable back planes but it saved me either waiting for a painfully slow dd of the disc or a re-install if what I did failed.

I can have 84 vlans and from run level 3, startx. 85 or more and I cannot startx. Assuming that it has something to do with the number of interfaces, there are 2 nics, 1 lo and the vlans.

I have problem installing OTRS the last time, so I am unable to evaluate that but will try later. The problem with PMOS is that the developer want to give up the project last time I checked. Aside from the mentioned above, can you suggest others that are better. Any advice from other experiences please.

[CentOS] python XML processing to turn a XML file into a structure?
Hi, I'm running Centos 5 with python 2.4.3. Anyone know if there are python xml processing tools/packages that can turn an XML file directly into a complex structure? and write a complex structure back into an XML file? I'm a newbie to Python programming, though years ago I've processed XML files with Java but now I am in a rush. Thanks. Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile.

[CentOS] strategy/technology to backup 20TB or more user's data
Hi Friends, I am currently using Samba on Centos 4.4 as a domain member of AD 2003 with each user having a quota of 2GB(no of users is around 2,000). Now the management wants to increase the quota to 10GB with this there will be more than 20TB of data to be backup weekly which will take lots of hours. Currently Veritas backup software is used to backup data on tapes. There is a concept of snapshots of Samba with LVM where snapshots of samba are taken at the given interval but so far haven't found any good article or how-to on that and also what is the experience of users using this technology and also what other technologies are being to handle TBs of data. Kindly let me know if you need any further inputs Thanks Regards Ankush ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Save yourself a bunch of trouble and buy a real storage system, if you have 20TB of data that's a serious amount of stuff to back up. Network Appliance is pretty popular in that space. I've been using 3PAR for my storage and really like it's built in virtualization. Dell recently purchase Equallogic which looks to have some solid technology as well. I attended a little event where they pitched their pooled storage iSCSI system. Looked pretty cool. With these sorts of system snapshotting is really easy and scalable. In the 3PAR world for example(not sure who else might have this ability), they have thin copy on write technology. So say you take a snapshot of a volume once a day for 30 days. In a traditional snapshot environment, you use a lot of space on the array as it keeps track of (up to) 30 different snapshots and the changes from the original volume. In the 3PAR world it only writes the changes once for the source volume. So if you change 10GB of data on the base volume and you have 20 snapshots, only 10GB of data is written as changed to the array, not 20*10GB. I also love the ability to snapshot multiple volumes from multiple systems at the same time, and the array ensures they are all taken at the same instant. Add on top of that the most advanced thin provisioning (dedicate on write) technology around, the ability to dynamically grow the array, change RAID levels on the fly with no downtime, etc, and you got yourself a nice system :) I'd personally steer clear of any of the old fashioned arrays (e.g. traditional EMC, HDS, IBM, though some of them are getting thin provisioning as well). I can only speak with personal experience in 3PAR, but I believe NetApp and it looks like Equallogic are very similar in ease of use. No need to be a storage engineer or have fancy training to use them. No spending days/weeks planning the layout of your storage system. With my storage array currently I have 8.5TB raw space, am using about 6TB, but my servers think I have nearly 30TB. As I get closer to 8TB I can add more space on the fly, re-balance the I/O for maximum performance and continue to grow as-needed. nate ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
