Im Running xen on a brand new dell PE 1950 with 146 GB SAS Disk on raid1.
The performance on the I/O on the domU is really poor, but in dom0 the

[CentOS-es] Seguridad de MAC contra IP

2009-05-19 Thread luisito

Hola

Les espongo mi topologia de red para que entiendan mi problema:

Administro un Departamento de mi Universidad.

Tengo el cable de mi proveedor de servicios de redes conectado a un 
Servidor Ossim, el mismo tiene 3 tarjetas de redes, una para el cable 
del proveedor, otra para la red publica, y la tercera para la red 
privada o sea los server, cada una tiene rangos de ip diferentes.

En la red privado o sea los server, tengo un Centos 5.2 el cual brinda 
los servicios de red, ahora que me estan pidiendo:

Me piden que en primer lugar en el Ossim que sirve como router y 
firewall, aclaro que esto es una maquina con la distro Ossim corriendo, 
establesca mac contra ip de forma que obligue a los usuarios a conservar 
las ip asignadas de forma que si cambian la ip no puedan navegar ni 
siquiera por mi red o sea se queden sin ningun tipo de comunicacion de 
red. Ademas que esto mismo se replique en el server Centos, que aunque 
el Ossim sierve de puerta de enlace, el Centos no permita conexiones a 
el si no hay correlacion entre mac e ip al igual que en el ossim.

Estoy buscando las mejores formas de en ambos sistemas hacer las tablas 
arp estaticas para lograr esto.

Escucho comentarios, criticas, sugerencias, links, experiencias y 
cualquier otra cosa que me sirva para implementar esto, por favor 
ayudenme pues no dispongo de mucho tiempo.

Re: [CentOS-es] Seguridad de MAC contra IP

2009-05-19 Thread carlos restrepo
Luis, en el archivo del dhcp se pueden amarrar las mac para que siempre
asigne las mismas ip a los equipos clientes.


este es un pequeño ejemplo de como amarrar ips a las mac, es la misma
configuración que tengo en un Centos 4.7 que tiene los servicios de red de
la empresa para la que trabajo.

# Scope Principal
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
option netbios-node-type 8;
option netbios-name-servers 192.168.0.2;
option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.3, 192.168.0.4;
option domain-name pepito.pepito.net;
option routers 192.168.0.1;
allow client-updates;
allow unknown-clients;
ddns-updates on;
ddns-domainname pepito.pepito.net;
range dynamic-bootp 192.168.0.5 192.168.0.253;
# Primer ejemplo
host portatil-gerente {
hardware ethernet 00:80:9f:03:8c:e4;
fixed-address 192.168.0.53;
}
   # segundo ejemplo
host portatil-jefe-prod {
hardware ethernet 00:10:9f:03:8c:f4;
fixed-address 192.168.0.159;
}

Y asi sucesivamente vas mapeando una a una las ip y sus mac.   Como
sugerencia te doy que permitas que el dhcp se las asigne primero, luego la
que asigno le buscas la mac y se la mapeas al dhcpd.conf, el detalle
interesante radica en como bloquear el que aunque el usuario cambie la ip no
lo deje navegar?, se me ocurre con con reglas de iptables...

El archivo /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases guarda un registro de mac e ips que va
asignado.

Espero esto de te una luz.


Saludos Cordiales.

Carlos R!

Infinitas gracias a Carlos.

Pero existe un detalle que no comente, me disculpo, no se me permite
tener dhcp, solo ip estaticas.

O sea tengo que buscar una forma de anclar mac contra ip estaticas y
ademas resolver que si los usuarios cambian el ip no navegen.

Agradezco comentarios.

este es un pequeo ejemplo de como "amarrar ips a las mac", es la misma
configuracin que tengo en un Centos 4.7 que tiene los servicios de red
de la empresa para la que trabajo.
  
# Scope Principal
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
 option netbios-node-type 8;
 option netbios-name-servers 192.168.0.2;
 option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.3, 192.168.0.4;
 option domain-name "pepito.pepito.net";
 option routers 192.168.0.1;
 allow client-updates;
 allow unknown-clients;
 ddns-updates on;
 ddns-domainname "pepito.pepito.net";
 range dynamic-bootp 192.168.0.5 192.168.0.253;
 # Primer ejemplo
 host portatil-gerente {
 hardware ethernet 00:80:9f:03:8c:e4;
 fixed-address 192.168.0.53;
 }
 # segundo ejemplo
 host portatil-jefe-prod {
 hardware ethernet 00:10:9f:03:8c:f4;
 fixed-address 192.168.0.159;
 }
  
Y asi sucesivamente vas mapeando una a una las ip y sus mac. Como
sugerencia te doy que permitas que el dhcp se las asigne primero, luego
la que asigno le buscas la mac y se la mapeas al dhcpd.conf, el detalle
interesante radica en como bloquear el que aunque el usuario cambie la
ip no lo deje navegar?, se me ocurre con con reglas de iptables...
  
El archivo /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases guarda un registro de mac e ips
que va asignado.
  
Espero esto de te una luz.

el Ossim sierve de puerta de enlace, el Centos no permita conexiones a

Re: [CentOS-es] Seguridad de MAC contra IP

2009-05-19 Thread Carlos Martinez
Saludos.

Usa el comando arp en ambos servidores (man arp):

arp -s address hw_addr : para fijar la mac al IP

arp -d address: para borrar la mac

guarda la asignacion en archivos de texto y ejecutala al arranque del
sistema y listo.

Si tienes switchs administrables, fija la mac del pc en cada puerto, o
colocalo en modo de autoaprendizaje de una sola mac.

En todo caso, esto de fijar la mac y el IP no es nada recomendable
para equipos de usuario final ... es mejor buscar soluciones al
problema del robo de IP's, permisos de navegacion, permisos de acceso
a servicios de red por otros lados.

Hasta la proxima.

supongo que el problema al que te refieres es que el dhcp server no 
escucha en la interfaz correcta.

puedes forzarle a escuchar en una interfaz editando:

/etc/sysconfig/dhcp* (no recuerdo el nombre)

ahi hay una opción para fijarle la interfaz, si mal no recuerdo por 
defecto oye en eth0 solamente.

Subject: Re: [CentOS] Solved: Dual-booting CentOS and WinXP

Note that it is also possible to set up VMware and perhaps virtualbox to
be able to boot the alternate OS as a virtual machine so you can run
both at once if you like.   If you don't have the enterprise-licensed
version of windows you might need to run it as the host, though.
Otherwise it will want to be re-licensed every time you switch between
virtual and physical boots and it sees different hardware.  With Vmware
you have to install the (free) server version to do the setup, although
you can later remove it and use the player version at runtime if you prefer.

Thanks for the hint, but it won't work for us, we need the stand-alone 
machines for a course-lab. Each student working at one machine kind of 
scenario, though the idea is interesting in order to eliminate dual-booting. 
Always booting linux and having Windows running in Xen or something at the 
same time sound appealing actually. I'll see if this is feasible with the 
course-admins.

Anyway, we have volume licenses for Windows, so no need for re-activation or 
anything.

Update: Just spoke to the course-admin a quickie. He saw no reason to not run 
Windows virtual machines on a linux box. I'll look into this after the course 
is over.

[CentOS] Missing perl-DBD-Pg security update

2009-05-19 Thread Ned Slider
Hi,

Any news when we may expect the missing perl-DBD-Pg security update for 
CentOS 5 from last week?

https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2009-0479.html

It came out the same day as the poppler security update that CentOS 
pushed 2 days later so I'm wondering why the perl-DBD-Pg security update 
still hasn't appeared. Is there an issue? Did it just get missed? Should 
we wait longer?

Also happens when you use *5.2* in mock to build the packages. And that

Yay! I invented a time machine! (or someone did).

Okay, let's move the machine from Germany to the UK

Hmmm. Who moved the international date line to the Channel?

What about mock? Let's move the machine back to Germany first.

[angen...@shutdown SRPMS]$sudo cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Berlin

So mock uses EDT which is 6 hours behind. Which does not explain why
moving from BST (EDT +0500) still gives me the correct date in the
changelog, moving the machine one step further to CEST (EDT +0600) moves
me to the next day, though.

What about the rpm built with rpmbuild? Let's move the machine to

Strange. This is 8 hours in the future (and not 6), but still shows me
the correct date.

Something is not right here. Is this something to worry about? How and
why does that happen? Why are there even calculations on the date line
in a changelog?

  Subject: Re: [CentOS] X Windows has quit working
 
Not sure when it stopped working as I don't use it often.  Maybe
since the upgrade from 5.2 to 5.3.  Can't say for sure as
  it's been
a while since tried to start X.
   
The errors I receive when startin X are:
   
(EE) I810(0): unknown reason for exception
(EE) I810(0): cannot continue
(EE) I810(0): VBE initialization failed
(EE) Screen(s) found but none have a usable configuration
   
Fatal server error:
No screens found
 
  If you're on x86_64 try intel driver instead of i810.
  See section 9.3. x86_64 Architectures of upstream release notes.

 No, this is IBM Netvista.

 Hi,
 
 Any news when we may expect the missing perl-DBD-Pg security update for 
 CentOS 5 from last week?
 
 https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2009-0479.html
 
 It came out the same day as the poppler security update that CentOS 
 pushed 2 days later so I'm wondering why the perl-DBD-Pg security update 
 still hasn't appeared. Is there an issue? Did it just get missed? Should 
 we wait longer?

Will get pushed today afaics, we tried to work out what the problem with
the changelog date shift before putting it out. 

See my other mail regarding the date issue.

[CentOS] Weird CentOS 5.3 problem

2009-05-19 Thread Randall Martin
I reimaged a compute node on our cluster with the latest 5.3 updates (we
were previously running 5.2), but we kept the kernel at 2.6.18-92.1.10.el5
until I can find time to rebuild some of our kernel modules.  After the
image install finishes and the system reboots, the eth0 ethernet interface
disappears.  If I do an ifconfig ­a, I see what should be eth0, but it¹s
listed as __tmp2081258173.

[r...@node0770 ~]# ifconfig -a
__tmp2081258173 Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:1E:68:86:67:04
  BROADCAST MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1

  collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
  RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)
  Interrupt:66

The dmesg output isn¹t very helpful:

[r...@node0770 ~]# dmesg|grep eth0
eth0: forcedeth.c: subsystem: 0108e:534b bound to :00:08.0


If I remove our lustre modules that were built for the 2.6.18-92.1.10.el5
kernel and reboot, the eth0 interface reappears.  Another piece to this
puzzle is that this problem only seems to happen on our Sun X2200¹s.  Our
Dell 1950¹s work just fine after putting on the 5.3 updates.  Anyone know
what could cause this behavior?

Why is there no choice of 1st sector of root partition?

or did I just miss it?

You need to select 'install bootloader' to the hard disk, and then advanced 
options, where you can tell it to install 
it to /boot instead of MBR. You should have created /boot in the partitioning 
stage.

I assume you are using some other boot manager.

Check /etc/modprobe.conf (and
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/if-cfg-eth0) -- if you are doing a
disk-to-disk backup type of install, the alias for eth0 is very likely
wrong (and the HW address in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/if-cfg-eth0
is also wrong).  You may have to manually update these two files on the
'new' machine, since it likely has a different NIC, requiring a
different driver.  It will also have a different MAC (HW) address as
well. In the old days, kudzu would detect this and pop up during the
boot process.

What does lspci display?

 Randy

[CentOS] Auto-installing security updates?

2009-05-19 Thread Anne Wilson
I've been asked to think about setting up an installation for a recently-
widowed man.  His needs are small - mail, Internet, on-line banking, basically 
- but his wife dealt with all of it on her laptop and he feels very insecure.

It seems to me that CentOS would be perfect for him except for the need to 
keep it securely patched.  I'm wondering if it's possible to auto-install 
security updates - for that matter, with so small a set of applications 
perhaps auto-installing every update would be good enough.

Maybe this could be done with a script run under cron.daily, so that anacron 
picks it up?

I'd be glad of any advice.

Rather than do auto updates (sometimes there are conflicts or other
issues needing *intellegent* intervention -- the recent update from
CentOS 5.2 to 5.3 required that glibc be updated before the rest of the
updates for example), maybe you should schedule a regular visit to this
fellow.  Not only will this make sure the machine is properly updated
it also gives you a chance to check for any problems that will have
cropped up.

 You need to select 'install bootloader' to the hard disk, and then advanced

 it to /boot instead of MBR.
 You should have created /boot in the partitioning stage.

 I assume you are using some other boot manager

Thanks, Julian, that tells me what I missed.

FYI:
I am not using a /boot partition,  all of centos is  in  sdb5.

I am using grub, but it is installed into a small ~ 10 Mb  grub-only

That chainloads all my os's,

Wasn't there some special process you had to go through when going
from 5.2 to 5.3? Something along the lines of having to manually update
one(or more) packages before upgrading the rest of the system? I see
that sort of issue as being very problematic for anything that auto
installs updates.

http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS5.3#head-198f803bc13b52348780db429ae42e0daf82282b

I think a better solution would be an Ubuntu LTS installation, it's
more geared for that type of person, and provides pretty seamless
upgrades for minor and major versions in my experience.

Debian has a nice system in that I can fix the configuration file
for apt-get to force it to the current release of the product(the
default is to point to whatever is the current stable release),
which will make sure all updates applied to the system are 100%
compatible. If/when I decide to go to a newer version I can take
the time to read the release notes and change the configuration
to point to the next major version of the distro, otherwise you
can fall into a similar trap, having a system blindly try to apply
updates that may be out of order for a major version change.

Not everyone keeps up to date on the day a particular release comes
out.

Ubuntu solves that by placing an easy to use button on the update
manager to update to the next version of the distro or you can
keep getting packages from the existing version, of course it's
only maintained for so long. My sister's laptop was so out of date
(and wasn't on a LTS version at the time), I had to jump through
a few hoops to get it updated as the intermediate versions were
no longer on the main mirror sites. I think her laptop was 3
releases behind at the time.

Major version changes on a RHEL-system are even more complicated,
even Red hat advises doing a clean install.

http://www.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html/Installation_Guide/ch-upgrade-x86.html

SuSE used to be pretty good at upgrading as well though it's been
a few years since I used it.

RHEL/CentOS are great for servers, and perhaps managed workstations
(thinking of replacements for things like Sun/SGI/HP-UX workstations,
and perhaps corporate desktops), I don't see it as a good candidate
for many other things, but that's why there are multiple distributions,
no distro is good at everything.

Maybe you could arrange to do some remote access every 3 or 4 months or so and
just update it for him. You could also show him how to do it during this time,
and it might give him some confidence and a better sense of independence which
he will probably very much appreciate.

 I'd be glad of any advice.

Like a previous poster, I'd also suggest, that you use an other 
distibution in this case.  Ubuntu might be a good choice or maybe SuSE. 
  Both are probably better suited for non-commandline techies :-).

Both distributions offer easy-to-use update tools.

I'd also suggest not to use Fedora or OpenSuse.  They have both very 
fast release cycles, forcing you to updating very often.

On the other hand, showstoppers can always happen and in this case 
probably nothing will save you a personal appearance :-)

 I reimaged a compute node on our cluster with the latest 5.3 updates (we
 were previously running 5.2), but we kept the kernel at 2.6.18-92.1.10.el5
 until I can find time to rebuild some of our kernel modules.  After the
 image install finishes and the system reboots, the eth0 ethernet interface
 disappears.  If I do an ifconfig ­a, I see what should be eth0, but it¹s
 listed as __tmp2081258173.

 If I remove our lustre modules that were built for the 2.6.18-92.1.10.el5
 kernel and reboot, the eth0 interface reappears.  Another piece to this
 puzzle is that this problem only seems to happen on our Sun X2200¹s.  Our
 Dell 1950¹s work just fine after putting on the 5.3 updates.  Anyone know
 what could cause this behavior?
 
 Check /etc/modprobe.conf (and
 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/if-cfg-eth0) -- if you are doing a
 disk-to-disk backup type of install, the alias for eth0 is very likely
 wrong (and the HW address in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/if-cfg-eth0
 is also wrong).  You may have to manually update these two files on the
 'new' machine, since it likely has a different NIC, requiring a
 different driver.  It will also have a different MAC (HW) address as
 well. In the old days, kudzu would detect this and pop up during the
 boot process.
 
 What does lspci display?
 


We add the two lines at the end of modprobe.conf for lustre.

alias eth0 tg3
alias eth1 tg3
alias eth2 forcedeth
alias eth3 forcedeth
alias scsi_hostadapter sata_nv
options lnet networks=tcp0(eth0)
options ksocklnd enable_irq_affinity=0


The /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 has the correct settings for
this host.  We actually generate this file during the post-install.  Here's
what it looks like:

DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=none
STARTMODE=onboot

 That's just the thing you don't have to do anything. Yumupdatesd will
 handle that for you. Or stop the service and put on a cronjob. Just that
 easy.

The NSA manual suggests disabling yum-updatesd and doing it with a
cron job. update yum and then update.

However, on very rare occasions, he might get bitten in the rear. As
someone else suggested, possibly you could drop in and update his
system, once a month or so, in case something goes awry? The risk to
that is that he would not have the latest and greatest versions, after
they are updated for security/stability. The plus side is that he
might get very confused if something  goes awry with an automatic
update. I would think that if he uses a Desktop, CentOS will be very
good for him. Consider adding the Multimedia stuff for him? From what
I've read on the list, CentOS on a Laptop can be problematic, but if
he's using a Desktop, should be good to go. GL

[CentOS] Does anyone use pmacct?

2009-05-19 Thread Rudi Ahlers
Hi all,

I've been advised to use pmacct on a CentOS server, in order to keep track
of network traffic used by the XEN domU's / VPS' / VM's on the server. I
don't see a .rpm on their website so I don't know if it's safe to install
the tarball. I also don't see an rpm in the dag wiers repository.

Has anyone installed it on CentOS before? And if so, did you run into any
problems?

Possibly the best way is for the updates to be setup to run

awry, then the user call for on site help, to straighten it out. The

As much as I like CentOS, I tend to agree with the other posts. I don't think 
it is the right distro for non techies.
I set up my in-laws with Linux Mint (running KDE, of course) and they could 
even handle installing the codecs and other non OSS stuff. Mint is a nice 
distro based on Ubuntu.

Why have you custom black list separate?  Then when doing updates,
remove the current list, concatenate the update with the custom and
then put that in place.

This would presumably make it easier for you to manage your custom
stuff, but still be up to date.

Also you could try

for FOLDER in `find /usr/local/squidGuard/db -maxdepth 1 -type d`; do

instead of
find /usr/local/squidGuard/db -maxdepth 1 -type d | while read FOLDER; do

This is a classic mistake. It has two problems:
1) The list of files created by the embedded find can exceed the maximum
command length.
2) Directories with spaces in their name will be split by the tokenizer,
resulting in $FOLDER containing invalid or dangerous paths.

 instead of

This is the correct way to combine a shell loop with a program that
