What has the hdd temp to do with cpu tmeprature?

First ... thanks for the other tips..
I think you fellows may have this a bit wrong. I have three video
editing desktops all running win xp. On them I use a piece of
software called `Hardware sensors monitor' or Hmonitor.
I've noticed over time (mnths) that when the cpu gets hot, the hdd are
also at elevated temps. Maybe not critical but well above where the
run normally.
This is on three different midtower boxes, so I have surmized that
although the heating of cpu may not be related mechanically to hdd
temp, in fact they rise and fall together due probably to close
proximity and being contained in same box.
I realize this is not a definitive experiment but for my uses it does
work like that.
Just as a note on a possible explanation for your observations in your
Windows boxes:
Most likely (CMIIW), when you notice the CPU and HDD temps rise, you
are actively doing video editing - a CPU and memory *and* hard drive
intensive task. When hard drives are driven hard, they heat up. When
CPU's are driven hard, they heat up. If the computers main
functionality is a task that tends to drive hard both the CPU and
the hard drive, then yes, you will see a correspondence in the CPU/HDD
temperature patterns. However, this does not mean that you *cannot*
drive the CPU hard without driving the HDD hard, and vice versa - just
because the are both being driven hard when you do video editing does
not mean that they are inextricably linked to each other in workload
and temperature profile.
What operations are being performed on your Gentoo box when you see
these CPU temperature warnings?

You can drive a CPU heavily without crunching disk IO, just windows
doen't do that so well ( espcially the case if you run out of ram and
drive into swap,.. which windows seems more predisposed to doing in my
experience ). You want an example of how to do this, then open any
high-level math software, ie: povray, video-encoding, compression,
SETI.
And you can drive hard-drives heavily without your CPU getting hot
too, I think its something related to DMA and the fact we no longer
use PIO ( well.. at least i hope not ), simply by performing
disk-to-disk transfers ( while there will still be a lot of CPU usage,
its still a bit less than you'd get without offloading ), this is
especially the case if you have a real RAID system and your doing a
RAID controlled mirror ( it has its own processor to control that )
The similarity in temperatures tho, may be related to the dynamics of
case design ( ill pretend to know what im talking about, im no
professor on this, but i have worked out how to cut degrees ). In the
closed case, most of the time ( at least in my experience ) the
majority of hard-drive cooling is passive, relying soley on the
lone-case-fan by the CPU, or even relying on the cooling fans in the
PSU, and generally, at least in all the tower PCS ive seen, the heat
flows out of the hard drives and over the CPU / Northbridge .
Often, this is a big sodding melting pot of heat, with your GPU just
under the northbridge, the CPU just up from the northbridge, that area
can get a bit heated, and the extra heat from the hard drives I
believe lowers the effectiveness of the CPU cooler somewhat. My
solution was not a very pretty one, but it works like a bloody charm.
I effectively made a breakout-box for my hard drives, ( well, 4 bars
of aluminium with holes in it for screwing them together ) with all
the hard drives mounted in parallel in a 'portrait' position. ( to
allow heat to flow up over the drives unconstricted ) and mounted 2
cooling fans on the sides to blow cool air over the hard drives and
back into the room ( EM purists look away here ) basically
isolating the cooling systems as as not to be so codepenant. To do
this i need to have my case panels off 24/7, i admit, but my case is
so crap that keeping them on is too much effort.
In summary : CPU temp cannot be accurately measured with HDD sensor
probes, ...especially as CPU is up from hard drives in most cases, and
heat .. generally rises.
If console logs are complainging about CPU over-heat, then either its
overheating, your thresholds are too low, ...or whatevers doing the
measurement is broken.
If you cant find out from some in-linux tool what the problem is, ...
you may want to find some sort of alternative way of measuring
temperature ( ... laser thermometer might be an idea ... )
Either way, best of luck .

[gentoo-user] Off-site data backup
Hi there, I have a couple of customers for whom I've configured Samba running on Linux as their file-servers. We want to do off-site back-up I like the idea of http://www.rsync.net/ which I read as recommended by a user here or on Slashdot some considerable time ago. However I'm not clear on the best way to secure our data when storing it on their servers - it's great to be able to use an open-source / open-standards protocol such as SSH when transferring data, but this does not protect it in the event that the off-site servers are compromised. I am sure this isn't likely to happen but still it's something we must consider. It seems to me that we can stuff all our data in a tarball encrypt it using PGP or similar (probably a symmetric algorithm (??) rather than PGP, but you get the idea) but that would seem to prevent incremental back-ups - using conventional back-up tools the single encrypted tarball will be seen to have changed each night and so will require completely uploading. Since our data could easily comprise several gigs this is clearly unwieldy, and encrypting thousands of single files and storing them remotely would seem to me to be clumsy also. Does anyone have any thoughts on this, please? I have read of zsync which allows only the changes in a large single file to be propagated but I'm not really sure if it's suitable for these purposes. Thanks in advance for any suggestions, Stroller. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Thanks in advance for any suggestions, Stroller. Off the top of my head I can think of two different ways you can store the files that would keep them safe. CryptFS One put all of the backups on an encrypted partition. Only mount that partition when you're ready to do a backup (that mighty require someone to login on their own and start it however). RBAC This may time more time to get a machine setup, but grsec is really good at ACLs. Setup a dedicated user and with GRSEC allow only that one user to access whatever directory you place your backups in. This is another layer of security, so even if they get the root account, they still don't have access to that directory. They will have to use the gradm password to elevate themselfs to get at it (use a complex password for gradm :) ).

Re: [gentoo-user] ttySx enumeration
Leonid Podolny wrote this: Hi, all, I lack some background to debug this issue. I have two serial ports on my box. Naturally, I would expect them to be ttyS0 and ttyS1. Indeed, dmesg shows the following: [snip] Serial: 8250/16550 driver $Revision: 1.90 $ 4 ports, IRQ sharing disabled pnp: Device 00:06 activated. 00:06: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A pnp: Device 00:07 activated. 00:07: ttyS1 at I/O 0x2f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A [snip] However, the actual nodes that udev (or hotplug?) creates are: [snip] vyhuhol ~ # ls -l /dev/ttyS* crw-rw 1 root uucp 4, 66 2007-06-26 09:04 /dev/ttyS2 crw-rw 1 root uucp 4, 67 2007-06-26 09:04 /dev/ttyS3 [snip] Needless to say, I'm unable to communicate with the port unless I manually mknod ttyS0 with minor 64. The question is: how do I make hotplug (or udev?) enumerate them correctly, as ttyS0 and ttyS1? I had this kind of problem some weeks ago. I resolved it rmmod'ing 8250_pnp and 8250, sleeping 1 and modprobing them again in local.start. I know it wasn't a nice solution, but it worked for me. begin:vcard fn:Rodrigo Forlin n:Forlin;Rodrigo email;internet:[EMAIL PROTECTED] tel;cell:+551194952922 note;quoted-printable:Linux registered user # 226673=0D=0A= http://counter.li.org/ x-mozilla-html:FALSE version:2.1 end:vcard signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
Re: [gentoo-user] VLC
Mia culpa. It looks like there was a problem in my package.use file. I had copied the flage for vlc from an article and got a carriage return in there. I'm building vlc for the 3rd time this should do it. On Wednesday 27 June 2007, a tiny voice compelled Ernie Schroder to write: I merged vlc using the flags suggested in the gentoo documentation. When I started the merge, I got an unknown atom warning for wxwindows but went ahead with the install. I've got no GUI, though I can run it from the command line. There doesn't seem to be any hot keys. I did some digging and found a reference to wxwindows being changed to wxWidgets temporarily. See line 113 http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/alt/changeset/7045 Emerge -av vlc shows nothing like wxWidgets in the list of flags, but I didn't get the atom warning about it. Is this change permanent? Still in effect? The merge is running now. Hopefully I'll get a GUI. Any thoughts? -- Regards, Ernie -- Regards, Ernie -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] Downloading Flash videos
On Wed, Jun 27, 2007 at 12:27:25AM +0200, Hemmann, Volker Armin wrote
open site. Wait until flash starts to load
ls -lhtr /tmp
the last file, starting with FLASH is the one.
Wait for it to be fully loaded, copy it somewhere.
There's an automated way of doing this. I've written a bash script
that will find flash video files in the current directory *REGARDLESS OF
THE NAME*, and move them over to a specified directory with sequential
names, i.e. mm000.flv, mm001.flv, mm002.flv, etc. Here's the setup...
1) mkdir ~/mvflv
2) save the script below as ~/bin/mvflv and make it executable. This
bash script is released under GPL version 2. You don't know me, so you
may want to wade through the code to ensure that it doesn't do anything
nasty, especially in the backtick expansions. (I originally wrote the
decrement(), increment(), and getnextversion() functions for use with my
system backups, so that they would be sequentially numbered).
3) cd to either /tmp or Firefox's Cache directory and execute mvflv
The script lists each file it moves into ~/flvfiles

[gentoo-user] Open Relay - What Happened?
So I'm running postfix on Gentoo, and have been doing so happily since about November. Until today I got a rejection for relayed mail notice from Road Runner. I read on their site that this happens when your IP address sends more than 1000 e-mails in 24 hours. My first thought was my windows-using roommates, but then I checked my e-mail server from the outside and indeed it was open. This is weird though, because I believe I have it configured for authenticated users only. I even tried setting it to only allow connections from this host, and still it happily accepts connections from outside and tries to relay those e-mails to other domains (of course, I would expect it to accept mail for electronsweatshop.com.) Here are some settings in /etc/postfix/main.cf that I think are relevant, anybody have any comments/criticisms/suggestions? myorigin = $myhostname mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, $mydomain mynetworks_style = subnet # I tried setting to host to see if that would # solve the problem (nope) smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous smtpd_sasl_local_domain = broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes # I've tried the following also adding reject_unauth_destination,reject_unknown_client, but that didn't solve the problem either smtpd_client_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated smtp_use_tls = yes smtpd_use_tls=yes smtpd_tls_auth_only = yes relayhost = smtp-server.carolina.rr.com # I actually have several domains listed here. Does anyone know how to get it to allow me to relay to all domains once I have properly authenticated? relay_domains = bunchofdomains.com smtpd_tls_security_level = may I fully appreciate any help anyone can offer. I made this setup just by following some guides I found here and there online, and don't really have a good grasp on the 6 volume manual that is postfix docs :) -- Randy Barlow http://electronsweatshop.com But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
