[BlueOnyx:07260] Passwordless login on BX 5.6

[Colin Jack]

This may be a dumb question (prepare face for egg) but I have just installed a 
new BX 5.6 box for Aventurin{e} backup but when I go to set up the key for 
passwordless access I cannot find the ~/root/.ssh folder:

[root@datastore1 ~]# ls -al
total 100
drwxr-x---  4 root root 4096 May  9 10:50 .
drwxr-xr-x 23 root root 4096 May  9  2011 ..

Any idea where it has moved to or should I just create it? :)

[BlueOnyx:07350] Twitter and Greylist

[Colin Jack]

We are using Michael's greylisting to cut down our spam levels but users are 
complaining that incoming Twitter email doesn't work.
I suspect that I need to include their servers in the "broken mta" list in 
greylist.conf ... does anybody know the IP addresses of their servers?

[BlueOnyx:07573] Monitoring mail

[Colin Jack]

We have a client running a BX box for their mail and users using IMAP with 
Outlook and OWM.
As part of their compliance requirements they need to have ALL mail from user 
mailboxes (received and sent mail) copied to a management mailbox.

Example:

3 users in a department (John, Sue and Bob) dealing with customers.
All mail received and sent by John and Sue to also be copied to Bob.

The inbound mail is simple (.forward) but not sure how to deal with sent mail.

Anybody able to help?

No it hasn't fixed it - that is what is strange.

All seems okay but every 15 minutes I get an error message saying "Could not 
connect to /usr/sausalito/cced.socket: No such file or directory
" ..
Everything on the server seems fine. cced.socket is in there and cced is 
running okay.

Colin




I've had this issue some while ago.. it fixed itself.
Do I understand correct that you fixed it already by restarting CCED? Don't
know the cause of it, I thought it was just CCED hanging and swatch is just
telling you about it..

That's quite unusual and something is askew there. Please try a reboot and see
if that fixes it. I wouldn't wonder if there is a hanging process, which

Did all that before listing. All works absolutely fine as far as I can see.
Would appreciate your eye over it - this is the CHW server (and you know what 
they are like!).

I am in Cape Town airport at the moment waiting to board. Will email you when I 
get home.

Thanks for your help.

One of my servers (VPS) has done this for some reason. I cannot see the network 
drop down and all looks exactly as it should do on the server. I have compared 
files with a working server and all is identical. This server was fine up until 
yesterday (?)

Any ideas?

[BlueOnyx:08248] Wordpress reading PHP version incorrectly

[Colin Jack]

I have someone trying to load Wordpress on one of our BX servers and it keeps 
failing with:

'Your server is running PHP version 5.1.6 but WordPress 3.2.1 requires at least 
5.2.4.'

We have the Solarspeed 5.2.17 package installed and Moodle reads this version 
correctly but WP doesn't for some reason.

Anybody able to advise on a quick workaround?

Yes I have read the instructions at " 
http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress"; and

Hi Wayne

Already tried that. This is just something with the WP detection mechanism for 
checking the environment. It is running phpinfo and returning the CentOS PHP 
version which is 5.1.6. and then refusing to install. Moodle must use something 
different, because that detects the Solarspeed version correctly.

I am using the compass network php upgrade package and it is working..   not

to fix.
the APC error caused some wordpress sites to display a "unable to allocate

Hi Michael,

If I use phpinfo() it returns 5.1.6 even though I have your 5.2.17 pkg installed

Best bet is to buy and install a pkg from Solarspeed or one of the others like 
Compass Networks. The BlueOnyx GUI needs the current version - the update 
package makes a different version available to websites. This is what we have 
used to run Wordpress and Moodle on our servers:

[BlueOnyx:08573] Moving Datacentre

[Colin Jack]

I have emailed Michael directly about this but thought it may be worth posting 
here in case others are faced with the same dilemma in the future and need a 
reference.

We are considering moving to another datacentre - about 300 miles from the 
current one. We have a full rack in the current DC with 3 x Aventurin{e} 
clusters and a number of standalone servers. The nightmare is going to be 
updating the DNS - we use a number of  BO VPSs to provide primary and secondary.

Is there a relatively easy way to do this or am I looking at a lot of painful 
work? I imagine others have done this before ;)

All my servers are NATed behind my firewall as you know, so it would just
be the global routable addresses that needed updating on our DNS servers.
I need to look at all the repercussions, but the current DC makes me
nervous (they rebooted someone else's server the other day when I asked
them to reboot for me!) Š

Ideally I suppose I could set up some temporary Aventurin{e} hosts at the
new site and just migrate each VPS as I update the DNS?

If I do decide to move, I will probably ask for your assistance to avoid
problems! ;)

[BlueOnyx:08586] Backup

[Colin Jack]

A quick question to find out what everyone else out there uses for
Aventurin{e} VPS backup.

To date we have just used spare space on our standalone BX servers - in a
round robin sort of way but I want to put a dedicated device in (we have a
large Buffalo NAS for FTP based backup but it doesn't support rsync).
Shall I just build a big CentOS machine or go with say OpenNAS or TrueNAS
on it?

Just wanting opinions really.

Has anybody any experience running with XenServer?

We install VMWare Sphere for clients but it is starting to look expensive.

We use Aventurin{e} for our *nix servers but want to virtualise our MS servers.

The paid for version of XenServer certainly looks pretty good - with full HA 
etc.

Also taking a look at Oracle VM

I have downloaded a trial copy - just need to find some suitable hardware in my

[BlueOnyx:08722] Rewrite oddity

[Colin Jack]

I would be interested to hear comments on the following. We have a user who was 
having problems getting his website working. He sent me the following 
explanation as to what was happening and I wondered whether anybody could shed 
some light as to why? On a BX 5106 box.

Quote:

"Ok, All pages on the site are generated through a script called page.php, this 
script needs a query string parameter (called pid) to work out which page on 
the website to build and show to the user.  All the navigation code in the CMS 
knows to call each page using the scheme:/page/pageid/some_descriptive_text, 
this both makes the URLs look a little more friendly and helps with SEO.  There 
is then the .htaccess file with some rewrite rules which take requests for 
/page/pageid/some_descriptive_text and convert them into /page.php?pid=pageid, 
which is all fairly standard stuff.
 
The problem we're having is that before any of the rewrite rules get called and 
this conversion happens, something (I think possibly at Apache or php.ini 
level) is catching the /page/ part of the requested URL and converting it 
straight to /page.php meaning that the rewrite rules are never fired and the 
capture of the pageid query string parameter within the URL doesn't happen, 
thus CMS doesn't know what page to retrieve from the database and the site 
breaks.
 
The reason I think this is server level is because it seems to do it with other 
pages as well so if we set up a page called /test.php and then call /test/ in 
the browser, we still get the contents of /test.php even though that's not what 
we asked for."

He has managed a work around:

" Interestingly, I've just noticed that calling the REQUEST_URI server variable 
from within PHP returns the originally requested URL ... I have been able to 
extract the page id from the REQUEST_URI variable if it's not available in the 
query string, and I have added that code into the main code tree ..."

But I would be interested as to why this is happening in case it rears its head 
again!

Regards

Colin

I am now seeing this on one of my servers - users using Filezilla cannot

Response:   227 Entering Passive Mode (87,128,xxx,xxx,225,142).
Command:MLSD

This is since a yum update but I don't know if is related. Running 220 ProFTPD

are fine.

There is quite a lot of stuff on the internet about this problem - supposed to

Anybody know a quick and dirty work around? I have a lot of disgruntled users!

I have 8 other BX servers running behind the same firewall with the same 
settings which are still working - apart from which this one was fine a week 
ago.

It does seem to point to this http://bugs.proftpd.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3318 but 
why are the others fine (all yummed up to date)?

This is for users using POP3 and popping the email to their computers. Z-push 
just pushes a copy out to them when it arrives  – which works well, except then 
they can’t delete them ;)

Now that header is interesting - because my email came from an Exchange 2010 
server - the server in question above is in a datacentre and provides SMTP 
relay services for our clients. It has nothing to do with our internal email ;)

On the server in question, 'hostname' resolves correctly. The problem is that 
the sendmail HELO doesn't.

It just seems to be the hosts settings. Looked at some of my other servers and

I think we must have the older version (no Web Applications" under Server

Server has a MySQL password and says "MySQL connection possible with this

[BlueOnyx:10800] Re: migrating to another mail server.

[Colin Jack]

Hi Roy,

We have done this fairly regulary when moving Exchange Servers for clients to 
new offices.
We have a little BX unit specifically for it (installed on a little Shuttle so 
it can be carted about easily).

On the BX box setup DNS to point to localhost only
Put an MX record for all the domains to be relayed with the new mx record 
(pointing to new site)
Add domains into mail domains allowed to relay.

Point old mx to BX box and it will queue up all the mail until the new box 
comes on line on the new mx. It will then forward all the mail to the new 
server.

Colin

Subject: [BlueOnyx:10794] migrating to another mail server.

We are in the process of doing  a slow migration to another platform and plan 
on using our BO box as a relay.

Is there an easy way to forward the emails to another server that would 
normally be dropped for "no such user"? We are changing the format of our email 
addresses as we migrate, so it seems like the easiest way to go.
Here is the plan in my head so far... We setup a new mailbox on the other 
server as bob.smith@ (with an alias of bsmith) when his old address was 
bsmith@. We would .forward his bsmith mailbox to the bob.smith address. When a 
message is received at the old server for bob.smith (or any other nonexistent 
mailbox) it would be forwarded to the new server (and that server would 
determine whether it should be delivered or returned as NSU). If the message 
was for bsmith, the .forward would take over and the previous step would 
happen.  Then eventually once all of the mailboxes were migrated, we would 
change the MX record to the new server and shut down the old.

Does this seem doable?

I know this, but some programs read /web as web ... in other words not off the

I just wondered if there was a way to ensure that when the user logs in they 
are taken to a specific folder by forcing it on the server, regardless. Not all 
my users are particularly IT savvy, so this would save some frustration;)

I think my first question would be:

If they're not tech savy enough to be able to navigate to the proper directory 
- what are you giving them FTP access for??  FTP is powerful enough that they 
could do some serious damage to a website - deleting, renaming, or overwriting 
the wrong files.

If they can't figure out what directory they are in - do you trust them with 
the site's files?  Or do you trust them with the other user's files (like their 
mbox file)??

[BlueOnyx:10967] Nagios -aaahhhh!

[Colin Jack]

My BX Nagios server self destructed and I have rebuilt it using 5107R ... 

I then installed Nagios again in default setup and could not get around all the 
permissions problems - it is well locked down ;)

I then created a vsite called nagios.domain.name and moved the web interface 
(the /share directory), the cgi-bin directory (/sbin) and the plugins directory 
(/libexec) into the web folder.
Changed all ownership to nagios:nagios and put an .htaccess file in the cgi and 
plugin folders:

Options +ExecCGI
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
IndexIgnore *

The web interface and cgi scripts work fine but I cannot get the plugins to 
run. Keep getting 
" Warning: Return code of 126 for check of service 'Current Load' on host 
'localhost' was out of bounds. Make sure the plugin you're trying to run is 
executable."

The path has been changed in resources.cfg and permissions set as 755 ...

Anybody any idea how to either

1. Get the plugins to run or
2. Get it run from the native install (I tried disabling CGIWrap in httpd.conf 
but that didn't help.

I appreciate I should run on a bare CentOS box but I have other stuff on here 
that uses BX.

Can anybody point me in the correct direction?

Thanks

[BlueOnyx:11825] Forwarding keeps disappearing

[Colin Jack]

We are seeing a very strange phenomenon on one of our BX 5106R machines.
If users set up forwarding - it creates a .forward and all works okay.
In due course if they go anywhere near the GUI - for example to add a vacation 
message - the .forward file disappears.
Today one disappeared and the user hadn't been near it - not even onto OWM 
which was a possible suspect.

This is causing all sorts of issues and I need to nail it down Is anybody able 
to give me a pointer?

Thanks

[BlueOnyx:12058] Solarspeed Roundcube after OWM

[Colin Jack]

I have just installed Roundcube on a client's server (using the new Solarspeed 
Shop which Greg and Michael have setup). Nice and easy.

I have one problem though - one user has a squillion folders created under OWM 
which she was using and although the folders are subscribed and are viewable in 
Roundcube, they appear to be empty.
Open with OWM and all is as it should be - folders are full of messages.

I thought IMAP folders were IMAP folders but it seems not.

Mail folder looks fine:

-rw---  1 suewilson site8   1437428 Jan 21 14:37 Andy & Olly 19th Jan 2013
-rw---  1 suewilson site8 0 Jan 21 15:40 Andy &- Olly 19th Jan 2013

Also - the 'cache lookups' is on by default! 
Maybe this should be changed on the ISO and VPS templates?

Also maybe grouping and renaming the controls/boxes so that it is more obvious?

I tried the suggested iptables addition to limit the number of queries but it 
didn't work! Syntax error.
Something else that may be worth putting into the default template or even into 
the GUI?

Hope you are keeping well.

[BlueOnyx:13633] Where is it hidden?

[Colin Jack]

I suspect this is a bit of a lame question, so sorry in advance, but I have a 
user on our server who is using up a lot of space (and maxing out his quota) 
and I cannot find out where the data is!

The user is the admin for their web site and therefore owns most of the files 
and folders on the site.
He is using PHP extensively.
His personal folder (~siteadmin) is almost empty - less than 1Mb but he is 
using 3 Gb on disk ...

I suspect there are some temp files being cached somewhere that aren't being 
deleted but would appreciate some help in where to look.

Many thanks

Colin

Gotcha!! 

Thanks - that was what it was. This was a migrated site a while ago.

Now sorted out :)

Yes that was one of the first places I looked.

[BlueOnyx:13955] New GUI

[Colin Jack]

Just had a chance to look at Michael¹s work on the new GUI and it is
mightily impressive.
Huge amount of work already and lots more to do.

Congratulations Michael and thank you for all your efforts. I know from
chatting on the phone just how long and hard it has been.
We do appreciate it!

Regards

Colin

[BlueOnyx:14157] Solarspeed AV-SPAM V5

[Colin Jack]

I am using Michael¹s excellent AV/Spam filter on all my servers.
Michael is very good at providing direct support for his products but I
decided to post this question on the list as his and other answers may be
useful to others on the list using this software.

We are finding that viral attachments (e.g crypto) are not being filtered
out of email even though everything (clamav sigs etc.) is up to date.
Is there any way around this - I would expect these to be fitered out /
email dumped.

What is the best way forward - we are seeing a shedload of these emails
(e.g. From employ...@alerts.hmrc.gov.uk) and had a few clients get zapped.

Colin
