premature munin-update termination due to read timeout from node?
Hello, I'm running a current Debian 7.2 with munin 2.0.6-4+deb7u1. There are a couple of plugins which take some time to finish due to the nature of what they do, which is around 17-19 seconds average. There is about half a dozen of these plugins. Unfortunaely munin-update terminates almost all the time after around 72 seconds, which is at least 50 seconds early to what a complete and successful run takes. Seems it loses patience with reading from the node. munin-node.log: 2013/11/07-06:51:05 [26174] Service 'tke_FOOBAR' timed out. munin-update.log: 2013/11/07 06:56:02 [FATAL] Socket read from vs2.gothschlampen.com failed.

I also modified the call to munin-update inside munin-cron by appending --timeout=250 and/or -timeout 250, which unfortunately doesn't seem to work either. Is munin really this broken in this regard, or is it with my otherwise rather plain vanilla setup?

FreeBSD, Linux and NFS
Hello, does anybody happen to be running NFS between FreeBSD und Linux successfully and painless? I've got FreeBSD 3.4S cvsupped xmas or one, maybe two days after, running as NFS server, while my Linux v2.2.14 box is the client. On Linux, I mount stuff like this: $ mount -t nfs -o ro,noauto,user,tcp,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr \ darkstar:/storage /tmp/storage.darkstar On the FreeBSD side of the universe, I've got this in /etc/rc.conf: $ grep -e nfs -e mount /etc/rc.conf nfs_server_enable=YES nfs_server_flags=-t -n 4 mountd_flags=-2 -r Ok, so if I get things right, which I think (hopefully) I do, this means that Linux mounts NFS filesystems via TCP/IP, the FreeBSD server forces NFS v2 via the -2 switch given to mountd and the 4 nfsd only serve stuff via TCP/IP (-t argument). But, stressing my home LAN a little bit the last few days, it happened to me three times already that the server simply stops serving the fs (or NFS in general, I didn't check before restarting stuff :-( ), while it stays perfectly functional in all other ways I can think of. Ok, it may be that no new/further NFS exported fs may be mounted by remote machines, I don't know yet, but I can get you current if asked to. Maybe it is just a regular permission problem that it can't mount the fs in question via loopback networking. Restarting nfsd/mountd, whichever order of starting them, doesn't seem to help, on the Linux box processes accessing the NFS fs still hang. Having restarted the daemons, I can mount another fs, though. (Don't know if this works without restarting, sorry. But I can test..) *Finally* :-) ... finally this is the error message I get on the Linux box syslog: dante kernel: nfs: server darkstar not responding, still trying Any ideas on that one? Is my assumption, that _only_ NFS v2 via TCP/IP, *NOT* UDP, will work between FreeBSD and Linux, correct? At all? If it ever was? (I just seem to have remembered this sort of stuff popping up on the lists and v2/tcp NFS being the solution) So, is there some help for me? I don't really know where to look at now.. Thanks for your valueable time, if you actually read this far :-)) HAND, thomas -- thomas..powered.by.debian/linux. .served.by.FreeBSD.

Installing potato off the net
Hi, until about a week ago I had a small box (amd 386dx40 w/ 16mb, 1.2gb) serving my network, providing internet connectivity and so on, but due to my fault (nothing to do with the dist, which is really great) the installation (hamm+slink mixed) is hosed in a way I think reinstalling is the less time consuming option. I want to go with potato now and tried installing off the net, but failed. I downloaded the installation disks for potato (the same as for slink) and installed as usual. When dselect came up, I switched to another vt, configured PPP and tried to update dpkg/apt via apt. I do not exactly recall what specific error it was, but I ended up with a broken glibc2.1, as it depended on libstd++ (or something similar), or vice versa, and one wouldn't install. dpkg --configure --pending didn't fix it and I was stuck. I intended to do an apt-get update apt-get dist-upgrade after an successful dpkg/apt upgrade. Basically, as my connection is really slow, I want to switch to potato as early as possible in the installation process (which basically installs slink, as these are the slink disks). So, all I need to know, is if one can safely switch VTs at this stage, leave dselect alone without installing anything through it, i.e. with just the plain base system installed, and upgrade manually, or do I have to perform some kind of really small installation via dselect, finish it and then go to potato via apt-get dist-upgrade later on (which would mean downloading the same stuff again, just with a .01 version number increase)? The less Megabytes I need to fetch, the better, as each one really hurts using this connection. :-/ Any help appreciated. -- thomas..powered.by.debian/linux. irc.:.#chatgate, #frust.ger

No problems so far with the current version. The problems I have had were with 0.20.3-something, the slink package. When started the first time, wmaker came up the correct way, with two icons docked: a wmaker configuration tool and xterm. When started again, these icons were not there any more and would not reappear on subsequent starts. On the virtual console where I started X11 (via startx) there was some error message about wmaker having problems parsing one of its configuration files (which were just the way they were saved when exiting on wmaker's first run). I managed to workaround this bug a couple of times, but I don't know what exactly was the reason for it to not happen. Later, I was not able to work around it any more, which made me get the latest package.

I read the manpage and tried linking xmem to xload and running it as xmem - but that didn't help either. the only thing my requirements nearly fill was xosview, except the size (i´ve used xmem swallowed into an fvwm-panel) Meanwhile I've been using xosview, too, but what I used to love about xmem is its ability to show a history of the ram usage - xosview and most other tools just show the present state. mabye some other guys know where it´s gone Any help appreciated. yes from me too ;) I received an email from David Stern [EMAIL PROTECTED], who provided an URL to the xmem source on sunsite: http://sunsite.uakom.sk/pub/linux/system/status/xstatus/xmem-1.02.tgz First I'll try that one (thanks David!), and in case it fails, I'll try unpacking the xmem executable off the old bo xcontrib package and use that. -- thomas..powered.by.debian/linux. irc.:.#meeting.points, #frust.ger
where is xmem(hamm)?
Hello fellow Debian users! When I ran bo on my system I used to have a small util named xmem running, which showed memory utilization in X11. I upgraded to Debian 2.0 a few months ago and have not yet been able to relocate xmem. I grepped the contents-file for it but did not find it, I also searched the mailing lists archive at debian.org, but to no avail. I found someone asking where xmem had gone, but there was no answer. Any help appreciated. -- thomas..powered.by.debian/linux. irc.:.#meeting.points, #frust.ger
/etc/init.d/isdnutils
Dear Debian users, just about two hours ago I succeeded in setting up my ISDN subsystem. :-) I can start /etc/init.d/isdnutils and interfaces will be created correctly, which do dial on demand and neat stuff like that, so I assume it is basically working (after a lot of trial and error). :) The only obvious error I get is this one when calling the script: Starting isdn services : isdnlogline0: Operation not supported by device interfacesisdnlog Version 2.99 loaded (ISDN subsystem with ISDN_MAX_CHANNELS 16 detected - 2 active channels, 1 MSN/SI entries) (Data versions: iprofd=0x04 net_cfg=0x04 /dev/isdninfo=0x01) ipppd. What might be causing the Operation not supported by device error? What should I have a look at? The card is a Teles S0/16.3c1 PnP rev 1.1. At the moment I can't tell the exact version of the installed isdnutils package, only that I got it from an Debian mirror out of the unstable branch 3 or 4 days ago. Any ideas? tk.
