Only for making the floppy or other image.



 Then you can run the SP53272.exe file on that, it will give you the
 possibility to burn a bootable CD with the firmware code.


For kicks, I downloaded a BIOS update for an old(er) HP system I own...
While you run the software on Windows, it is a FreeDOS bootable floppy
image.
Now that I've got a bootable floppy, I clone it with dd to an image file
and I could PXE boot it.

I'm not quite sure why HP didn't just make a floppy image and distribute
that back then.
I keep a USB floppy drive and one Windows system (dual boot laptop) around
just in case for situations like this.



 If you don't have a CD burner on the Windows machine you can
 transfer the .iso file from the directory that was created
 when the SP53272.exe is unpacked, it will be in
 ROMPaq CD/ROMPAQ.iso.

 You don't need Windows on the dl580.

[CentOS] Is there a good nntp client for Centos 6 that handles SSL native?

2013-05-01 Thread Rock
Is there a good nntp client for Centos 6 that handles SSL native?

It was difficult, to say the least, on Centos anyway, to get
Pan to post to Mixmin servers, which require SSL (so we have 
to use Stunnel to add SSL capabilities to Pan) on Centos.

Had Pan native SSL support, this wouldn't have been a problem.

Hence the question:
 Q: Is there a good freeware NNTP client with a Centos repository 
that handles SSL native?

Note: Here's the abbreviated sequence to install Stunnel with Pan
  (but it took me months to come up with this as all the 
  tutorials on the web fail in the little Centos details).
 
Install Stunnel:
$ sudo yum install stunnel -y

Read bug reports to find a stunnel init script for Centos:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=455815

Add  modify that stunnel /etc/init.d/stunnel script:
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=325164

Configure the Stunnel /etc/stunnel/stunnel.conf file:
;setuid = nobody
;setgid = nobody
client = yes
[nntp]
accept = localhost:2119
connect = news.mixmin.net:563

NOTE: It took me months to figure out that these two
now-commented lines cause stunnel to fail on my Centos box:

Test Stunnel:
$ telnet localhost 2119
  Trying ::1...
  telnet: connect to address ::1: Connection refused
  Trying 127.0.0.1...
  Connected to localhost.
  Escape character is '^]'.
  200 news.mixmin.net InterNetNews NNRP server INN 2.6.0 (20120622 prerelease)
  ready (posting ok)
post
  340 Ok, recommended message-ID kuyt4l$e21$1...@news.mixmin.net
From: foobar f...@bar.com
Newsgroups: alt.test
Subject: This is a test

This is a test of stunnel to mixmin.
.
240 Article received kuyt4l$e21$1...@news.mixmin.net
quit
205 Bye!
Connection closed by foreign host.

Install Pan:
 $ sudo yum --enablerepo rpmforge install pan -y

Configure any known good Pan newsserver:
[Pan]Edit-Edit News Servers-Add-(see below)-OK
 Address: aioe.org
 Port: 119

Configure a test Pan posting profile:
[Pan]Edit-Edit Posting Profiles-Add-
 Profile Name: New Profile
 Full Name: Foo Bar
 Email Address: f...@bar.com
 Post Articles Via: aioe.org
 OK

Test Pan setup by reading  sending a message to alt.test.
[Pan]Post-Post to Newsgroup-alt.test

Now you're ready to configure Pan for SSL via Stunnel:
[Pan]Edit-Edit News Servers-Add-(see below)-OK
 Address: localhost
 Port: 2119

Switch the test user to this encrypted server:
[Pan]Edit-Edit Posting Profiles-Edit-
 Post Articles Via: localhost
 OK

Test this setup by reading  sending a message to alt.test.
[Pan]Post-Post to Newsgroup-alt.test

Note: It would have been easier had Pan native SSL
capability; hence the question:

Q: What nntp client handles SSL native on Centos 6?

[CentOS] Configuring source-specific routing

2013-05-01 Thread Michael Mol
I'm attempting to configure source-specific routing so that my servers
can exist on multiple subnets from multiple upstream providers.

A rough diagram of the network layout:


ISP1 router (blackbox, routes subnet A, address on subnet A)
  \
   ---eth0(firewall)eth1---((servers))
  /
ISP2 router (blackbox, routes subnet B, address on subnet B)

The aim is to allow the servers to use both subnet A and subnet B. To
allow this, any machine on both subnets must have source-specific
routing configured, else packets originating from one ISP's AS will be
directed at the other's router, and neither ISP cares for that.

At the moment, I'm focusing on getting the second ISP properly added to
the firewall box. The firewall box is using CentOS 6.4, and normally
passes traffic back and forth via proxy_arp. None of my interfaces are
NM_CONTROLLED, and NetworkManager is not installed, much less started.

I've created a route-eth0:1 file that looks roughly like this:

10.0.0.1 dev eth0:1 \
  src 10.0.0.2 \
  from 10.0.0.0/29

default via 10.0.0.1 dev eth0:1 \
  src 10.0.0.2 \
  from 10.0.0.0/29

(Treat indented lines as continuations of the previous line)
(No, the ISPs aren't giving me RFC1918 addresses; these are redacted.)

If I run ifup eth0:1, ip route show includes the lines:

10.0.0.1 dev eth0  scope link  src 10.0.0.2
10.0.0.0/29 dev eth0  proto kernel  scope link  src 10.0.0.2
default via 10.0.0.1 dev eth0


Note that the from 10.0.0.0/29 clause is missing. With the addition of
a second default route on my firewall/gateway without any restriction on
which traffic should go that way, my whole network, of course, tanks.

I'm surprised it's been such a pain; I would have expected it to be a
relatively common configuration. What's the proper way of doing
source-specific routing on CentOS?

Kinda curious why you are attempting this without getting involved in
dynamic routing (BGP)...  It's usually someone trying to do multihoming
or multi-link load balancing on the cheap without involving their ISPs
(which tends to be expensive as soon as you're talking with them about
redundant / backup loops, provider independent addresses, and BGP
peering).  Generally equates to champagne taste on a beer budget but
there are exceptions and reasons, as I know from personal experience.
It often doesn't end well and is unreliable as network conditions
change.  But that depends on your requirements and application.  I'm not
one to judge - just pointing out the pitfalls.

I have done this a number of times in the past (mostly for VPN's and
redundant load-balancing links).  You're probably going to have get real
down and dirty into policy routing rules and tables with iproute2.  I
don't honestly believe you will be able to pull it off with the basic
stuff provided in the ifcfg-*, route-*, or static-route files (proviso
below).

I had to do it using completely custom files utilizing ip rule and ip
route {add|delete} table [n] subcommands to ip to build custom
matching rules and mapping them to different routing tables containing
different routes and priorities.  In some cases, with OpenVPN VPNs, I
also had to incorporate iptables filtering commands to mark and match
packets and interact with the ip rule tables but I doubt you're going
that deep.

man ip-rule

--
   In some circumstances we want to route packets differently depending
   not only on destination addresses, but also on other packet fields:
   source address, IP protocol, transport protocol ports or even packet
   payload.  This task is called 'policy routing'.

   To solve this task, the conventional destination based routing table,
   ordered according to the longest match rule, is replaced with a 'rout‐
   ing policy database' (or RPDB), which selects routes by executing some
   set of rules.
-- 

This is way beyond what the network-scripts were designed for and WAY
WAY beyond NetworkMangler's capabilities.  It can be done but it's
difficult to get right and very dependent on your exact peculiar
configuration.  It can be real twitchy to make work right and real
difficult to debug when it's not working right.  It's also prone to
asymmetrical / triangular routes that can break things if you don't get
it right.  It also will not behave robustly if one link or another goes
down (no automatic failover).

It's beyond my ability to tell you generically how to make it work (I
can't even find those old config files I use to use for multiple ISDN
links years ago).  The devil is in the (your) details and here there be
dragons.

It will end up looking something like this (and these addresses are in
my real address blocks...):

ip addr add 130.205.16.16/24 dev eth0
ip addr add 130.205.17.16/24 dev eth0

ip route add table 16 default via 130.205.16.1
ip route add table 17 default via 130.205.17.1

ip rule add from 130.205.16.0/24 table 16
ip rule add from 130.205.17.0/24 table 17

Those are just from memory and may not be perfectly accurate.  I haven't
needed to do any of this in years.  It's just possible that the above
commands could be incorporated into the route-* files.  Last time I
tried this was before iproute2 was fully integrated and I could only use
the static-routes file, which used the route command and would NOT
work.  Since the route-* files use the ip (iproute2) command, you should
be able to integrate the appropriate rule and route add commands into
those files, but I've not done it that way so I can't really vouch for
it.

You can then see your match rules with this command:

[root@canyon ~]# ip rule ls
0:  from all lookup local 
32764:  from 130.205.17.0/24 lookup 17 
32765:  from 130.205.16.0/24 lookup 16 
32766:  from all lookup main 
32767:  from all lookup default 

And your route tables (including my default) like this:

[root@complex ~]# ip route ls table 16
default via 130.205.16.1 dev eth0 
[root@complex ~]# ip route ls table 17
default via 130.205.17.1 dev eth0 
[root@complex ~]# ip route ls
default via 99.104.36.1 dev eth2 
99.104.36.0/22 dev eth2  proto kernel  scope link  src 99.104.38.187 
130.205.16.0/24 dev eth0  proto kernel  scope link  src 130.205.16.16 
130.205.17.0/24 dev eth0  proto kernel  scope link  src 130.205.17.16 
130.205.38.0/24 dev br0  proto kernel  scope link  src 130.205.38.1 
169.254.0.0/16 dev eth2  scope link  metric 1003 
169.254.0.0/16 dev br0  scope link  metric 1007 

There MAY be other ways of doing it but this was what use to work for
me, when I needed it many ages ago.

Mike

Yup, I know.

Intent is to maintain the old, slow (but has an SLA) connection as a
fallback, and migrate services to the new connection piecemeal.
Meanwhile, the same DNS server on the new connection can be, e.g. ns3.
The same mailserver can have a new MX on the new connection...likely
prioritized to it.

Inbound services can be load-balanced fairly easily via DNS, if TTLs are
kept low, and records updated in response to link state. It's not
anycast DNS, but it also doesn't require to you get BGP peering and PI
space. (I don't even know if I could *get* IPv4 PI space at this point.
I certainly know I wouldn't be able to if I waited a year...)

Yeah, I've gone that deep. And a tad deeper. I had almost *everything*
working by hand, and went to figure out how to convert it to idomatic
CentOS network configuration scripts. And took my network down *three
times* because of the script-processing stripping things out.

Yup. I went through LARTC before writing a line of code, just to be sure.

Curiously, at least one guy has reported success:

http://sysadminsjourney.com/content/2009/04/15/doing-simple-source-policy-routing-centos/

Now, the only thing different between his setup and mine (apart from my
using ethN:1 instead of ethN, as all three routers hang off the same
ethernet segment) is that were his guide says:

echo default table CorpNet via 10.0.0.1 
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth1

My first pass at making my code platform-idomatic effectively was:

echo default via 10.0.0.1 table CorpNet 
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth1

(the table $table clause in mine was at the end of the line, following
the pattern I'd read in LARTC, rather than near the beginning of the line.)

I found out elsewhere that the latest Pan handles SSL, but

try to compile source, it's a disaster, so, for me, Pan 
doesn't handle SSL.

I also found out elsewhere that Thunderbird has native

it difficult, if not unwieldy to use.

So, I'm still looking ...

 Do you have any working CD from that drive? If yes, you could call:
 
 cdrecord -minfo
 
 to get the state and to find out whether it writes in TAO mode. (-minfo is
 a
 shortcut for -media-info).

Such discs do exist, I just don't happen to have one handy at the moment.
I'll see if I can acquire one.

 
  apparently, instead of stopping it and fixating the disc, someone turned
  off the power. oops.
 
  I know that wodim will fixate a disk as long as it was otherwise
 properly
  terminated (I've done it more than once), but this one it won't fixate.
  depending on the drive I try it in, I get different messages, but in
  either case, it remains unfixated.
 
 wodim is a defective variant from an extremely outdated cdrecord (taken
 from a
 cdrecord from September 2004).
 
 - Did you try the original software?

Not yet. I just built latest cdrtools but haven't done anything with them
yet.

 
 - Is it possible to use the original drive that was used for writing?

the original isn't a drive per se, it's a professional audio recorder,
rack-mounted, that contains a CD drive of some sort.

I THINK what happened was the recorder was powered off while writing.
Probably made a huge mess of the data, or at least  left it in some bad
unfinished state.

 
 
  so i've tried reading it with cdparanoia, but it can't do anything with
  it, or not that I've figured out how to do.
 
 cdparanoia is a patch on a cdda2wav version from 1997. There was never an
 update on the cdda2wav code and development stopped in 2001. Don't expect
 cdparanoia to be able to read such disks, as the _read_ properties in
 cdparanoia are generally bad compared to a recent cdda2wav.
 
 Note that after the development for cdparanoia stopped around 2000/2001,
 Heiko
 Eißfeld and I took the paranoia code (the code in cdparanoia above the
 read
 layer that is responsible for retries and result rating) out of
 cdparanoia,
 made a portable library from it and added it to cdda2wav.
 
 Your problem is that cdparanoia will never read a TOC-less disk and that
 the
 dead fork from a September 2004 cddda2wav called icedax is full of bugs.
 
 The real cdda2wav has a compile option to set up a virtual TOC, but if you
 ever
 like to read a CD without a TOC, you not only need to tell cdda2wav the
 TOC by
 exiting the compiled in TOC, but you also need to kill any hostile
 software on
 your computer that tries to access CDs in an unapropriate way, such as
 hald or
 it's successors. Once such a program did try to access a problematic CD,
 you
 will never be able to access the CD unless you reload it - which will
 result in
 a new access attempt :-(

Ugh. I think I'll have to build a VM for this, since I don't want to break
my existing system.

 
 If the CD has a PMA (which I expect from writing in TAO mode), the disk
 should
 be readable by cdda2wav if you use a drive that understands the PMA.

so, if cdrecord -minfo tells me it was written as TAO, then there should
be a  PMA and I might then be able to read it with cdda2wav?

Thanks for the info!

I have used such a recorder, and the one I used WAS capable of recovering a 
disk from a mess like what you describe.  But...it takes a while.  It has 
to read the entire disk (and it is designed to read at 1X), figure out what 
is on it, and then finalize it.

If you can get access to the original recorder, I would suggest you let it 
try to clean up its own mess.  Even better would be to get hold of the 
manual (paper or online) and see what it suggests for finalizing a disk 
that has been removed from the recorder.

if you only have 3gb ram, there's no real point in running 64bit
