[CentOS-virt] IP aliases of CentOS Guests not accessible running 2.6.18-164.el5xen

2009-09-28 Thread Devraj Mukherjee
Hi all,

First of all I am posting this on two lists for a reason, because the
issue being reported by me could be because of a change delivered by a
Kernel update or due to Xen.

I have recently managed to update all Xen Guest domains running CentOS
5.3 to the latest bunch of updates + Kernel. My Xen host also runs the
same CentOS 5.3 updated to all recent packages.

The Guest images in concern had IP aliases assigned to them.
Everything worked until I ran the updates and restarted.

Since I have restarted the aliased IP addresses are no longer
accessible from the outside world, they can still be accessed from all
machines (guest virtual machines) in the subnet (ping, services like
http).

I have removed all firewall rules to test if that would have effected
it without any change (any the fact that I can access them within the
subnet proves its not the firewall).

Is there anything special I have to do to enable aliasing? May be this
is a Xen issue? I am suspecting the Xen host, but not sure how to go
about proving this.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

My Guests do run fail2ban (delivered via atrpms) and iptables
(allowing only HTTP, HTTPS and SSH) connections.

PS for obvious reasons I am not posting IP addresses and routes etc
first up, I can make that information available if required.

Assuming you are using bridging, do you see ingress packets at dom0's ethernet 
interface(s), dom0's bridge(s), and the guests' interfaces? If so, do you see 
the guests' reply packets where you expect them?

No, it's not possible unfortunately. On a traditionnal SCSI bus you can 
rescan the whole bus to see newer/added devices or just the device to 
see newer size, but not on a Xen domU .
At least that's what i found when i blogged about that . See that thread 
on the Xen list : 
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2008-04/msg00246.html

So what i do since then is to use lvm in the domU as well and add a new 
xvd block device to the domU (aka a new LV on the dom0) and then the 
traditionnal pvcreate/vgextend/lvextend. Working correctly for all my 
domU's ..

saludos, les comento que tengo un servidor OpenLDAP funcionando, se 
autentican sin ningun problema las Maquinas que pertenecen a la misma 
subred, pero cuando trato de unir al dominio maquinas de otras subredes 
no me lo permite, el mensage que manda windows es que no encuentra el 
_ldap._tcp_dc._mstcs.DOMINIO en los registros del DNS.

Por otro lado me podrian decir que debo hacer para definir y correr un 
logon script

como puedo solucionar estos dos problemas??


gracias de antemano

Re: [CentOS-es] permisos de usuarios validados en ldap

 Buenas tardes sabios listeros
 
 tengo un problema con los usuarios ldap.
 
 lo que sucede es que cuando un usuario ldap se me valida por ssh, éste
 puede navegar por todo el servidor como pedro por su casa, cuestion
 que no es para nada segura, ya que puede borrar, copiar y crear todo
 tipo de archvos y carpetas.
 
 Yo he configurado mi ldap con una entrada auto.master para que se les
 automonte su home en /Estudiantes/carpeta_home_usuario.
 
 he investigado y me he encontrado con algo llamado ACL, que son
 permisos que se dan sobre atributos del LDAP, pero la verdad me
 pareció demasiado complejo de implementar.

Me parece que tienes una pequeña confusión. Los ACL del LDAP sirven para
controlar el acceso a objetos almacenados en el servidor LDAP.

La palabra ACL es muy común en muchas cosas, y también existen ACL para
sistemas de archivos ext3/ext4/XFS. Y por medio de eso puedes manejar un
esquema de permisos de acceso a archivos más flexible que el estándar de
Linux rwx/usuario/grupo

 Quisiera que ustedes me colaboraran dandome sugerencias de cómo podría
 yo darle un permiso a un usuario para que cuando éste valide por el
 ssh, solo pueda ver su home o ciertas carpetas que yo quiera que vea y
 pueda editar.

Lo que me parece estás buscando en realidad es ssh chroot jail, y
espero que estos dos enlaces te sirvan:

Hi

Why not use external eSATA/USB disks which are only connected and
powered up when required.

Very simple, very low disk usage, unlikely to fail ?
Multiple copies if required
Not power surge vulnerable
Can be stored off site

For day to day incremental backup eSATA/USB 32GB Throttle stick
Reasonably fast - in my pocket

[CentOS] IP aliases of CentOS Guests not accessible running 2.6.18-164.el5xen

2009-09-28 Thread Devraj Mukherjee
Hi all,

First of all I am posting this on two lists for a reason, because the
issue being reported by me could be because of a change delivered by a
Kernel update or due to Xen.

I have recently managed to update all Xen Guest domains running CentOS
5.3 to the latest bunch of updates + Kernel. My Xen host also runs the
same CentOS 5.3 updated to all recent packages.

The Guest images in concern had IP aliases assigned to them.
Everything worked until I ran the updates and restarted.

Since I have restarted the aliased IP addresses are no longer
accessible from the outside world, they can still be accessed from all
machines (guest virtual machines) in the subnet (ping, services like
http).

I have removed all firewall rules to test if that would have effected
it without any change (any the fact that I can access them within the
subnet proves its not the firewall).

Is there anything special I have to do to enable aliasing? May be this
is a Xen issue? I am suspecting the Xen host, but not sure how to go
about proving this.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

My Guests do run fail2ban (delivered via atrpms) and iptables
(allowing only HTTP, HTTPS and SSH) connections.

PS for obvious reasons I am not posting IP addresses and routes etc
first up, I can make that information available if required.

 yes, well - what distro was that binary rpm built for ?

With respect to installing RPMS ...

You CAN NOT install rpms built for one distribution on another
distribution ... let me explain why.

Linux uses Shared Libraries (as does Windows with .dll files).  The
point of a Shared Library is so that you only build the NEW things you
need for the program you are building, and you get the REST of the
information from files that are already available.

If you try to install packages built against Fedora 11 on CentOS 5 then
none of the Shared Libraries that the package was built against (the
versions in Fedora 11) are in CentOS 5, so it does not work.

It is sometimes possible to take Fedora SOURCE RPMS (a
package_info.src.rpm) and build it on a CentOS 5 machine and then use
the resultant Binary RPMS on CentOS-5.

One should NEVER, EVER install Binary RPMS from one distribution on
another distribution ... doing will not work. The files are built
against different libraries and even if they install they will likely
not work.

As others have pointed out, there are other repositories available:

http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories

If what you need is not there, you will need to build it or convince
someone else to build it for you.

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes

 I have *successfully* used RPMS from both Mandrake and SUSE on a CentOS

 though. 
 

Sure, it is possible, if you get very lucky, to do so.  However, even if
packages install because a dependent library is available (take
/lib/libc.so.6 for example) it does not mean that they are similar
enough to work.

RHEL/CentOS glibc has dozens of patches that are different than Mandriva
or SUSE.  They also put things in and look for things from different
places than CentOS.

So, one should think long and hard before (at the very least) before
installing programs not built for/using CentOS/RHEL on CentOS.

[CentOS] Any known problems with kernel-2.6.18-164.el5.x86_64 / x86_64 / 3ware?

2009-09-28 Thread mbneto
Hi,

I have a server that is running centos 5.3 x86_64 that until last week was
running fine.   With no error messages in console and in /var/log/messages
the server simply stops responding.

After a reboot everything is fine.   The only change (that I could find) but
that was not active before the first incident/reboot was the update of the
kernel and friends.

The server (is this can help) is a intel quad core, 8GB RAM , 3 x 1TB disks
(raid mirror with 2 active / 1 spare via 3ware controller)

Any known problem with the kernel-2.6.18-164.el5.x86_64? (I am assuming that
this would be the only thing that could cause the problem due to the lack of
other messages.

Subject: [CentOS] Any known problems with kernel-2.6.18-164.el5.x86_64 / x86_64 
/ 3ware?

Hi,

I have a server that is running centos 5.3 x86_64 that until last week was 
running fine.   With no error messages in console and in /var/log/messages the 
server simply stops responding.

After a reboot everything is fine.   The only change (that I could find) but 
that was not active before the first incident/reboot was the update of the 
kernel and friends.

The server (is this can help) is a intel quad core, 8GB RAM , 3 x 1TB disks 
(raid mirror with 2 active / 1 spare via 3ware controller)

Any known problem with the kernel-2.6.18-164.el5.x86_64? (I am assuming that 
this would be the only thing that could cause the problem due to the lack of 
other messages.

Regards.

Hi

Are you using nfs4 ?

Could it be the fact that nfs4 does not work with this kernel ?

This bit me hard
Revert to the previous kernel or use nfs3

 with TiB's worth of data, its not going to be quick.

 Can you convert a RAID0 to a RAID5?

 How would you create a 1 disk degraded raid0 :) well, you could - but
 you wont get any data onto it! So you would need to start with 2  
 disks,
 and with that you then need to store 2 disks worth of stuff somewhere
 while this is building[1].

Can't you start with a single disk raid0 and expand? I think that is  
possible no? Then with a two disk raid0 add a parity disk (raid4) then  
distribute the parity for a raid5.

Of course if Linux RAID doesn't support that then it can't be done  
yet, but it would be possible.

[CentOS] rpmstrap/rpmbootstrap to boostrap CentOS 5

2009-09-28 Thread Santi Saez

Hi,

Is there any working script, similar to deboostrap, for CentOS 5?

I have found rpmstrap [1] at RPMforge.. but only works for CentOS-4, and 
appears that's out of date.

thanks!

yum --installroot foo;

the other workaround is to use mock and build the chroot using that.

Re: [CentOS] rsync followup - what did I run?

Hi,

On Sun, Sep 27, 2009 at 22:41, Scott Ehrlich srehrl...@gmail.com wrote:
 Many people have wondered what my rsync syntax was -

 [as root]: rsync -av /path/to/source m...@remote-host:/path/to/dest

Is /path/to/source mounted NFS?

What happens if you run it as your own user?

 I'll be adjusting it to adapt to perform incrementals, probably with --update.

You probably don't need that, as rsync will detect if files are
identical. If you use --update it means that if the file is updated on
the destination it won't be replaced with the one in the source, which
is probably not what you want if the destination is to be used as a
backup.

 So, just need to learn why some of the .dotfiles, and other unknown
 files (unless I ran a diff) didn't successfully copy over.

Can you show what ls -la /path/to/source shows (considering the
.dotfiles are directly under that directory)?

Do you have any error messages when you run the rsync command?

I believe those are result of a failed install of an RPM, where it had
time to unpack the files (or start unpacking them) but not to finish
writing them and renaming into the definitive names. This might have
happened if the machine crashed in the middle of an RPM install.

 I can remove it?

I believe you can, after all I don't think any applications would try
to access those files. I suggest moving them somewhere else or backing
them up just in case...

 the server simply stops responding.

I posted the following bug to RedHat yesterday for similar symptoms

[CentOS] Antispam with Postfix

2009-09-28 Thread Joseph L. Casale
I am mulling over the thought of replacing my current solution, it
works very well except for the following two issues:

1. LDAP recip verification for only one server, this gateway services multiple
domains who's directories are independent. I need to be able to verify the
various domains off of independent servers.

2. I use backup mx's, my current solution probably could work in this scenario 
but
the support mechanism behind it is *very* weak and I can't get a perfect setup
working. Spam hits the primary for a domain, gets blocked and then tries my 
secondary
which sometimes accepts it, after which the primary always accepts from the 
secondary.

What are some setups that use Postfix which you guys are having very good 
success
with that isn't a burden to administer. The last thing I want to do is replace 
my one
single app with many:)

Thanks for any ideas!

If you have a secondary mx, it MUST have the same (if not more
aggressive) spam prevention as your primary for this exact reason.  You
also need to make sure that the secondary can reject mail for
non-existent users so you don't send backscatter when the primary
rejects the mail.

Can't help you there.  I don't use Postfix.

 Sorry, but Fedora is no longer a good desktop choice. I was a Fedora
 user, but the distribution is pushing to far the idea of cutting edge
 features.
 
 Would you mind elaborating your view here?
 
Hi

To be honest there isn't much to elaborate. I understand the goal Fedora 
project to test the latest software available. In this way, Fedora isn't 
for everyone. At least is not for your main system, but if you have a 
spare machine to install and play with it, it's probably a good idea. In 
my case, the rpmfusion NVIDIA driver didn't like my card, a Quadro NVS280.

I there are too many updates, and sometimes they crash something. I 
remember while using Fedora 10, after disappointment with F9, after an 
update, the sound stopped to work. I didn't like the idea of Thunderbird 
beta in F 12. Also, the external drives are mounted using the uuid(?) 
name, so instead of /media/disk, appears something like 
/media/88299233ddd22, which breaks my backup/recover script. And a few 
other thinks. My general option was that the experience wasn't good, or 
put in another way, Ubuntu works better.

None of this is critical, but it is annoying. For me, a good 
distribuition would be something seating between Fedora and CentOS. In 
the last months I started thinking that Ubuntu feel this gap. I still 
believe that CentOS is best option for servers and technical 
workstations, but not for my laptop, a Dell XPS M1530.

Re: [CentOS] CentOS for non-tech user

 I'm thinking of giving CentOS to a non-tech user for her new desktop.  He
 needs are small.  She has been used to Mozilla for both mail and browsing, so
 equivalents there are not a problem.  She needs grip and lame, for her mp3s -
 again no problem.

 Desktop, non-techie - use Ubuntu instead.

 I'm a big CentOS fan, I joined even the Facebook group (lol), but its

Thats my thought as well.  Ubuntu desktop and CentOS for servers.
Just wandering if anyone is using the 'Ubuntu Server Edition's'?  They
seem appealing but CentOS is what I am used too on servers now.
Thought about loading it up on a box to just try though.

 If you have a secondary mx, it MUST have the same (if not more
 aggressive) spam prevention as your primary for this exact reason.  You
 also need to make sure that the secondary can reject mail for
 non-existent users so you don't send backscatter when the primary
 rejects the mail.
 

Personally I'd just drop the secondary mx completely and let the sending 
smtp server queue the mail whenever you're offline. Makes life a lot 
simpler.

Re: [CentOS] CentOS for non-tech user

2009-09-28 Thread aurfalien
I'd like to chime in on this.

Being techy. nothing really bugs me as I think its all POS.

However I do think the Linux desktop is not so good in general.

I've been a big fan of Irix and used to maintain it when it was the  
golden child of the Unix desktop.

I've been following the 5dwm project for a while;

http://www.maxxdesktop.com/site/

Anyways, check it out, hope ppl find it use full.  Eric Masson was  
brilliant for getting this project up and running.

Postfix can handle that. You can have multiple lookup tables/maps. They

Ubuntu for desktop is really a give and take. You get some stuff 
conveniently done for you like Nvidia drivers (which, I believe is also 
doable on Centos with a certain repo...cannot remember which) but you 
may also have to handle random crap like Network Manager not setting 
things up properly.


Centos as a desktop is good enough if you do not need the latest version 
of Firefox or other stuff.

Thanks, that's a good suggestion to try KDE - so far I haven't figured 
out how to install it short of a complete reinstall.  If I run yom I get 
a message to the effect that a database is malformed.  It downs't say if 
the database is mine or the morrors, though.  What should I do about that ?

I hould have mentioned that I ran memtest86 after installing some new

[CentOS] Finally got keepass installed

well I finally got Keepass installed on CentOS

The libraries for qt4 are actually located at pbone as well as keepass.

I would love to know how to add pbone.net as a trusted repo in Yum,

just for you guys that like to work with cross operating systems and having
a password manager.
Keepass is pretty good for all platforms and I even have it on my
blackberry.

No beta has been released. No ETA for a beta has been released. It
will most likely be based off of a Fedora release close to when the
Beta comes out so I would expect it to have Upstart in it. The best
way to figure out how Upstart etc works would probably be to run
Fedora 11/12 in a KVM.

Not unless your running a mail server or file server that

Postfix can handle that. You can have multiple lookup tables/maps. They

I guess I can leave that part upto Postfix, but I still need a antispam
addin...

I asked on the Postfix list a while ago whether multiple LDAP server lookups

I'll just have to reserve some time to actually try it!

Like others have already said, lose it or fix it.

Well, therein lies my trouble. With the poor support around my current product
I can't fix it (Don't know how). I had to loosen up the primary so it would stop
rejecting good mail from the secondary, it's nothing short of a proper mess, I
know. Hence the look for alternatives

postfix + spamass-milter will do it.

I'll give a second look at sa, I haven't looked at it in a while (years) but

it being rather indepth.

Will the software be used in a commercial environment?  If not, then you
could use AVG from Grisoft:-
http://free.avg.com/download
I've used it for a couple of years now and haven't had any problems. 
Come to think of it, it hasn't found any viruses either!?!?!  Perhaps
I've been lucky, but I prefer to believe my email server is fairly good
at rejecting spam etc.

If you are using it in a commercial environment, you can purchase a
subscription server licence for Linux from them.

spamassassin via spamass-milter. Fast, no complicated smtp 
proxy/multiple queue setup needed and not as resource intensive as some 
other solutions.

:-D

I have not bothered with that list in ages. You can put multiple ldap 
table lookups directives in main.cf. Each directive has its own 
configuration. If you are not going to rewrite the recipient address, 
put the domains in the 'relay_domains' list (you can put a filename here 
and put the domains in that file) and then feed the list of ldap lookups 
to 'relay_recipient_maps'.

Eg:

relay_recipient_maps = ldap:/etc/postfix/domain1.cf, 
ldap:/etc/postfix/domain2.cf
   ldap:/etc/postfix/domain3.cf 
(they do not need to be on one line but the continuation must be indented)

Each domainX.cf should have a 'domain' parameter to prevent unnecessary 
queries. Eg: domain1.cf should have a domain = domain1 entry.
Ldap configuration file information:
http://www.postfix.org/ldap_table.5.html

Your secondary should have the same filtering setup. Also, a queueing 
secondary is absolutely useless. Just let the mails queue at their 
original servers. If they bounce due to stringent rules (one hour delay 
and boom! that's it) then let them. Better that they know the mail has 
not gone through than to think it has and wonder why there has been no 
reply for the next two/three days. People have this 'instant' concept 
about email. I would not bother with a 'secondary' anymore.


 postfix + spamass-milter will do it.
 

 I'll give a second look at sa, I haven't looked at it in a while (years) but

Yeah, if you need to some tweaking of rules.
