I completely agree and support Gilads opinion - developing commercial product on Fedora is a bad idea. -Mike Gilad Ben-Yossef wrote: Oron Peled wrote: On Monday, 5 בMay 2008, Ira Abramov wrote: which brings me to the question - should I stick to Fedora (7? 8?) for the devel environment and break from the RPM world and go for Lenny or Hardy? Generally, the requirements of any enterprise/stable distributions are bad for developers by definition. These distros must have long upgrade cycles, normally contain a lot of legacy API's which are maintained purely for legacy applications etc. So for production, your obvious choice may be RHEL/Centos, Debian etch etc. But for development you should take Fedora, Debian lenny, Ubuntu (without staying on the LTS track), etc. Based on 4 years of running a company whose main business is supporting and assisting product companies use Open Source in their products, I completely disagree: For a commercial product, at least a commercial product which is not developed by a bunch of all Linux old hands, I think that the complexities added by using a cutting edge (as opposed long term support) distribution , in addition to having to deploy on a different platform then the one you developed on, introduce some much 'noise' in the development environment such that any advantage gained from using the latest and greatest is lost. If your current production target is Centos, you natural development platform will be Fedora. Each RHEL version click (~18 months) accumulates roughly 3 Fedora versions (~6 months). So for your case a Fedora 8 would be solid choice (fully updated, it is kdevelop-3.5.1-3.fc8). I think developing commercial product on Fedora is a bad idea. Note that I'm not saying anything bad about Fedora here, just about it's application as a development environment for a commercial product.

My problem is that i have a thread with constantly growing stack ( i can see it via /proc/PID/smaps ). Unless someone added a linux-specific API for this, you may have to revert to /proc/PID/smaps parsing :-( Thread uses some functions from a proprietary shared library. I need to know when the stack size of the mentioned thread reaches RLIMIT_STACK so i can safely restart that thread before it crashes. The wonders of proprietary code. You cannot fix the memory leak so you have to work around it... nice. Maybe the way to wrap it would be: 1. Create a watcher thread that would sample /proc/PID/smaps 2. Have this thread restart the problematic thread -- this is of course application specific. So when this library eventually get fixed, you can knife the ugly code out. Indeed, thats what i do - juts there is no need for the watcher thread - problematic thread monitors and restarts itself. 10x, Mike P.S. It would be nice to add a linux-specific API for thread stack monitoring. Moreover, there is API that can be extended to do this - getrusage (2) .

Take into account that the stack may grow up or down, depending on architecture.

Re: System resource monitoring and reporting utility ?
I've worked with tons of programs that do this - none of them have filled all my requirements. One thing, though - I didin't want to rely on SNMP - My ultimate solution would be a system that will ssh to a machine and run commands, process the output. In no particular order: 1. Monit is good for status - not history. If you want to know what's running NOW, or get en email when disk usage goes above 80% - things that can be checked remotely (ping, HTTP/S, Mysql) then monit is great. No pretty graphs, though. 2. Nagios is the best for all-around monitoring - but configuration is a pain. Installing the Groundwork framework makes this a cinch, though installing groundwork itself is slightly painful and pretty invasive on the host machine. If you have a machine to dedicate to this, this is probably the best solution for most cases. 3. mrtg is good, especially if all your devices speak SNMP. It's cute an simple - you cron a perl script to run every, say, 5 minutes. It outputs a bunch of graphs. I don't think it does warnings/emails, etc. 4. Orcallator. Some large companies I know use this. I tried it once - I seem to remeber that I liked it, though I couldn't online any of the features that I thought I liked :-) 5. Zabbix - Very robust, but requires their agents to be installed on all non SMTP machines. If you are willing to do this, then this is a Great option.

Re: Is pthread_mutex_lock fair?
I'm a complete novice when it comes to these things -
but is it possible that somewhere, something is doing an optimization?
Compiler? CPU?
Perhaps some subsystem along the way sees that fair scheduling would take
much longer.

By calling sched_yielf(), the scheduler we re-arrange tun run queue
so that (assuming all worker threads are of the same priority), the
thread releasing the lock will be put at the back of the run queue
and some other threads, which ahs been marked ready to run after the
lock has been released will get the chance to take the lock, that's
why I expect sched_yield() to do the job. Note that for an SMP
machine things are rather more complicated and also if there are
numeroud tasks in different priroities... :-(
Yes, you are correct. sched_yield() will give an appearance of
fairness. But consider the cost (see below) - IMO it changes the
semantics of the test program in such a way as to make it
meaningless.
Shahar, let us know what happens :-)
sched_yield() makes it run 20 times longer for TEST_SIZE=1000, and
the difference grows with the test size.

Re: frogot my password
do you have the root password ? if you forgotten the root password then you might want to boot the server in single user mode : lilo boot: linux single if that does not help then you can boot the computer with the cdrom (redhat 6.2) and use rescue option (not anything else !!!) Then after you have the shell you can mount the local / (or /etc) and modify the shadow/passwd file by hand. (usually you delete the password so next time you will not have to type one.)

Hi list. I installed a Samba server (from Redhat 6.2 disk) and now i'm trying to access it. I opened an account for my user and gave it a password. I configured the /etc/smb.conf to be a master browser,prefer browser and logon server. the security schema is user. I also add my workstation ip address to the hosts file. It failed to authenticate my user password. So i tried the encrypted passwrd option , create the smbpasswd file and tried again. Still i can't login. The error msg is : the domain password is not correct, or you have no access to the logon server. I did not use any restrictions and i'm 100% positive that my password is correct. i even changed it to be sure. Any idea what i'm doing wrong ?

Re: using dial-up connection over lan
Hi. You need to install wingate or something like this on the WinNT. That will enable the WinNT to act as a router. Since Wingate cost money, you can use the Linux box as router.

Re: linux with nonstop's system works
Hi. There is a company calls NetRiality who has a product that can control the bandwidth limit of WAN interfaces. If i were the cable company then i could limit traffic by IP address and give each one 0.5 MB guarantee, However, i donoo how much capacity their backbone to the clients has. It's sound nice to have a guarantee of 0.5 MB but if the whole line is 10 MB then no more then 20 users on the same time can use it.

Re: linux with nonstop's system works
Hi. About barak, i'm using them as a VPDN for my users and it work ok. since i to have some routing problems then maybe it is not as fast as it should be, but that is not why i post this mail. About cable modems, i read an article few month ago regarding to the "FAST" connection to the web with cables. The article quote several engineers at very big cables companies and it was written there that fast connection on cables is just an illusion. What do i mean ?, well it said there that the main problem with cables is that it is a shard medium, just like coax and hub connection. That is, lots of users will have the same line together meaning that there will be a situation that if someone is D/L a big file then all the rest will be very slow. Just like now. There is NO progress in trying to overcome this problem ! each provider has his own techniques how to overcome this problem. More then that, there is no work on a protocol that will fix this problem !, so there is a little chance that the problem will be fix in the near future. It was said that users with GOOD isp with 56,600 modems will receive a better connection then users of the cables. I will try to find this article and to scan it. I really hope that i'm mistaken, the article was written almost a year ago, so maybe something was changed.

Or i need to do something like : acl MyNetIP src 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0 acl MyNetIP src 192.168.0.2/255.255.255.0 acl MyNetIP src 192.168.0.3/255.255.255.0 Thanks, Mike --- Mofet Institute - Computer Dpt. +972-3-6901415 ~ = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
mkinitrd error
Hi list. does anyone knows why i get : All of your loopback devices are in use when i'm trying to make initrd image for my new linux-2.2.16 kernel (i have installed ReiserFS support if it got anything to do with it) My /etc/conf.modules file is empty. i deleted everything from there. i think that it might got something to do with the scsi , am i right ?

Re: Newbie OT Q: Msoft protcols
no
Microsoft is using LVL 2 and LVL 5 in the osi module.
since LVL 3 is the network layer then MS protocol does not have the ability
to see the entire network.
In order to overcome this, you can configure the MS box to use the TCP/ip
protocol as the LVL 3 and 4 in order to use it over from one network to the
other.
this is the default in Win9X only if you DO NOT install the NetBEUI (?)
protocol. and you need to enable the binding in the TCP/ip protocol.
In NT and Linux it is the default way. you do not need to install the
NetBEUI protocol at all.
Hoped it help.

Hi,
I assume that Microsoft workgroup protocols ("network neighborhood") are
using IP broadcast to find peers and servers on the network and this is
the reason that they don't find anything past the router. Can anyone
confirm this?
TIA,

cache proxy again :-)
Hi. Some additional questions if you don't mind. but first some more info : the server is PIII 733 133Mhz board clock, 2 GB RAM and 6 19 GB scsi 10K RPM drives for the cache and one 9 GB for the system. I will have 3 scsi cards, 1 for the system and 2 for the disks (3 on each). The 2 cache disks controllers can act as raid 0 (i think - not the mirroring raid but the other one) The questions are : 1. i will use reiserfs, will it improve my I/O performance if i will use the raid option ? 2. will it be better to use Async I/O transfer (squid supports that as a file system type or something) ? i know that there will be some data lost and corruption. What do you think ? (i know that i'm bugging about this subject for a long time, BUT i just saw the new Compaq TaskSmart and their really put Linux/Squid behind...it is payback time :)) Mike --- Mofet Institute - Computer Dpt. +972-3-6901415 ~ = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Proxy Hardware - was Re: Kernel 2.2.16 and Megaraid
yes i know. anyway i think i solved the problem :-) In the LH4000 (or 3000) you can choose if you want raid or simple scsi. all i need to do is to transfer it to a simple scsi. I do not need the raid controller anyway. Now i got a new Q :-) What is better, 1 CPU of 733 and 2 GIGA RAM or 2 733 CPU's and 1 GIGA RAM for a proxy server. I think that it is better to have more RAM then CPU's. but in every configuration i saw in squid site they had there 2 cpu's. Am i right ?

I'm installing RedHat 6.2 on HP LC4 with 1 GB RAM. 2 disks of 18 GB, 4 PIII 500 MHZ and 2 scsi cards. One of them is the megaraid that comes with HP disk array. When i'm installing the RedHat (kernel 2.2.14 that comes with RH distro)it recognize my scsi megaraid controller and install it ok. However, when i'm compailing new kernel (2.2.16) with the ami megaraid supportthe mkinitrd tells me that it can not find the module for it. silly to saythat when i reboot the system the kernel get panic due to the fact that it can't find the root filesystem.

Any idea why it happens ? and how to fix it ? Thanks, Mike Hi Keep in mind that the kernel package supplied by redhat is not the default kernel. The most notable change is that RH (as most other ditros) compile many things as modules (that were originally marked as "N"). They also apply some patches. You can always download and install the updated RH kernel package. If you want to know exactly what patches they used (and their docs don't specify that) you can download the kernel source rpm (kernel-2.2.16*.src.rpm , not the kernel-sources package), install it, and then look at /usr/src/RPM/SPECS/kernel.spec in the %prep section. -- Tzafrir Cohen mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.technion.ac.il/~tzafrir = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
sendmail Q
Hi. i received a mail from a user that does not exist on my server. The content of the mail is sex, there for i assume that it was a Spam advertising. Now, I'm using the Sendmail macros that disallow users not from my own domain name to use the server, and more then that , it can not be used as mail relay. mail from [EMAIL PROTECTED] can not be sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] from my server. My question is, i there any log that shows who sent mail to who when and from where ? if such log does not exist, how can i configure Sendmail to generate one ?

Kernel/Memory problem.
reason the system killed the idle process. Few days earlier to this error i fixed my swap and i saw that it did in fact used it. (i used cat /proc/swaps, free and top) I have 4 partitions of 512 MB each, 1 primary and 3 logical. I will send the other errors as soon as i will be at the office.

Re: SYN/ACK not forwarded to 2nd NIC
You MUST use masquerading, else ware it will not work.
I have the same configuration as you shown at my home.

Hi.
did you configured the kernel with IPCHAINS as needed ?
You can read the IP-MASQUERADING HOWTO , there is a detailed examples
how to
do it.
you need some rules in order to let Linux know that it supposed to do
the
masquerading from one net to the other.
Thanks for your answer, Mike,
For now no masquerading is taking place: all rules default to ACCEPT.

Subject: SYN/ACK not forwarded to 2nd NIC
Hi,
I have a curious problem.
My box (linux) is trying to send mail to a target.
Between my box and the target there is a linux box 2.2.12
with 4 NICs but (for now) _without_ any filtering rules
at all (all default to ACCEPT).
Only 2 NICs are up: eth0 to external net and eth1 to internal net.
The problem is that when I tcpdump the 2 NICs from this middle-box,
I can see a SYN getting out from eth1 and then passed to eth0
(ip forwarding is enabled), and then I receive a SYN/ACK from the
target box via eth0, but this SYN/ACK _never_ reach
eth1 (which point to internal net) !!!
The figure describe what's happen:

The same thing occures when telneting Target on ports 7/9/79 etc...
_But_ when I telnet Target 80 or 21 from My Box, it works !
Why ?
Sure, I am missing something, but what ?
I try with kernel 2.2.5, 2.2.12, 2.2.14.
