Did you ever find a fix for this? I am running into the same thing myself. Check your pam.d configuration, particularly /etc/pam.d/login Probally a silly question, but how would that help with this problem? pam controls how each application, including login attempts to authenticate. nss controls how user, host information is looked up. I don't know if it will help your problem, I'm struggling through my own pam/nss/ldap issues, but it is a part of the picture. I am curious. Do you run into problems with SSH and xterm, but everything else works? That is what I am currently hitting. initgroups(kitsune,1001): Invalid argument Is what it is kicking into /var/log/messages. That is right after I authenticate. Not sure if this has a bearing on the problem. From the samba by example web pages whenrefering to ldap: Some Linux systems (Novell SUSE Linux in particular) add entries to the nsswitch.conf file that may cause operational problems with the configuration methods adopted in this book. It is advisable to comment out the entries passwd_compat and group_compat where they are found in this file. I too have this problem. Logins worked ok with earlier versions. I had a setup which worked fine (can't get at the machine at present) that had no nis line present on the initial install, but when I tried setting up another machine the nis line has appeared. From my notes nsswitch.conf looked like this with an earlier version of freebsd and worked ok: passwd: files ldap shadow: files ldap group: files ldap hosts: files dns networks: files shells: files Now without the compat: nis line logins fail.

FreeBSD's linker doesn't add /usr/local/lib to the search path by
default, unlike some other operating systems. The -L/usr/local/lib

jails or chroot?
I host a bunch of websites on my box. Recently I had some problems with file access problems with php which caused me to look into putting each of my clients into their own jail or chroot. I have roughly 100 different domains I'd need to split. Has anyone done this for more than a handfull of clients? Using apache and their mass virtual hosting, 100 domains is a breeze. But with a jail or chroot, I need a separate apache process for each domain. This is going to mean hundreds of apache processes. This seems unreasonable. When it comes time to upgrade, how does one upgrade 100 different jails? This will be a nightmare! What do you folks do who run lots of domains on freebsd?

The usual system logs such as /var/log/messages are not being saved. /var/log/messages does not exist, but /var/log/messages.0 (the old rotated version) does. if theres a rotated log, there should be a source for, too. check permissions on /var/log (eg. schg-flag) maybe there's some odd reason for syslogd not being able to write to it. also, try creating an empty file (touch /var/log/messages; chmod o-r /var/log/messages) and restarting syslogd. you can test logging with the logger-command. if your box is not private (for you only): did you check, if someone removed the file? check for logins, network sessions, strange users with uid 0 in master.passwd, change-date of files in at least /etc. if anything looks strange, change your root-pw, shutdown unnecessary daemons, and take the box off the net if it's possible ,-) ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: jails or chroot?
I'll try to be more explicit on my requirements. I'm not worried about mail. I'm mostly worried about web. Each client has a web site with one or more domains. I currently offer them apache+php+mysql+mod_perl+mod_ssl. One of them needs java server pages, tomcat I think. Everyone gets access to their own logs and to geolizer (webalizer). Some clients would like shell access. Most clients write their web site using ftp. Certain ones need also the MS Front Page Extensions. Some clients want an ftp upload area. Ssl poses a special problem in that I need to allocate an ip address for those who have their own ssl certificate. It's pretty much all standard stuff. But yes, I totally agree with you, it is an administration nightmare to set up separate jails and keep track of which has which version of what and so on. There must be an easier way to do this. Some of you folks who run hosting sites, how do you manage large numbers of clients?

Agreed that creation hundreds of chroots or jails would be an administrative nightmare. File access can be solved with suexec (compile apache with suexec enabled), this means that for each virtual host entry in your apache config you add User and Group (check http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/suexec.html or your apache version doc set). This will make each apache process run as the user specified in virtual host entry (not www) allowing you to restrict their access to files with filesystem ACL's and even ugidfw, you could also then setup process/memory restrictions in /etc/login.conf It will also make updating pretty much as standard as it is now.

Re: panic: page fault - 6.0-RELEASE-p7 (now 6.1-RC2)
At 09:14 AM 5/5/2006, you wrote:
Hello,
We have a group of web and mail servers that run under a moderate
load. We recently upgraded them from 4/5.x to 6.0. While we
thought we had done enough testing, apparently we hadn't and are now
experiencing panic's on a number of the servers. Some of our more
heavily loaded servers have been fine for days, while others will
crash every 6 to 36 hours. Below are some pieces of information
that may be helpful.
Should I be posting this to another list as well?
I know I can decrease NMBCLUSTERS dramatically, and give more memory
to the kernel if that would help.
I've read a number of similar cases where this panic was related to
a hardware failure, and while I can't rule that out completely, it
does seem unusual that several servers are apparently having the
same problem. Could it be that hardware problems existed before the
upgrade, but are now brought out by the increased load caused by the
new OS version and other installed software? We have IPMI cards in
some of the crashing servers and they all report normal
temperatures, fan speeds, and voltages. Nothing unusual in the event logs.
I'm willing to dig deeper and do more testing if anyone has suggestions.
As suggested, we have upgraded to 6.1-RC2 and are experiencing the
same or a very similar panic. Some things have changed on the
system, so I'll re-post our config, backtrace and dmesg again.
Also, in the past I have seen kgdb report the process that caused the
panic, as well as some other information when first loaded, but
sometimes it doesn't show that information - am I doing something
wrong there? It has shown that information before, and it has always
been tcpserver from the ucspi-tcp-0.88_2 port.

Hi, I would suggest using ssh with RSA key pairs and passphrases only. Dont allow password based login or root login over ssh. Only allow root to login using the console and use sudo for all admin tasks. I have not tried this myself but you could use tcpwrappers and write a script to add the IP address from repeated failed messages to the hosts.deny file. There are various scripts already written to do this.

RE: jails or chroot?
Hi, Sure, jails require more work regarding administration. Ports are not the biggest problem I think, it's the easy part. The problem is when you have to update the world. But even here, with a good script, it's not such a nightmare. Maybe all you need is Michael's solution. But take into account that with jails, you have a great flexibility regarding the application you install for a particular client. And all the security that a jail system can offer, plus a fantastic way of managing your backups. I personally run a jail based VPS server, based on FreeBSD 6.0, with 13 jails at the moment. It's a dual xeon, with 4GB RAM, and RAID 5 SCSI HDs. I have 355 MB RAM active, 1525 inactive and 1679 MB RAM are free. I intend to run a maximum of 50 jails on this server. And until now, nothing seems to oppose to my plans. Beware of one thing with jails, though: a bug in FreeBSD does not permit a clean shutdown of jails. But tust me: you never need to! Hope this helps, and keep us informed of your choice.

But with a jail or chroot, I need a separate apache process for each domain. This is going to mean hundreds of apache processes. This seems unreasonable. Agreed that creation hundreds of chroots or jails would be an administrative nightmare. File access can be solved with suexec (compile apache with suexec enabled), this means that for each virtual host entry in your apache config you add User and Group (check http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/suexec.html or your apache version doc set). This will make each apache process run as the user specified in virtual host entry (not www) allowing you to restrict their access to files with filesystem ACL's and even ugidfw, you could also then setup process/memory restrictions in /etc/login.conf It will also make updating pretty much as standard as it is now.

Don't feel too bad - the little bastards try it on anywhere and everywhere. There are a few things you can do to stop them in their tracks. From what I gather, the pf firewall provides some neat table functionality that can be put to use in this situation. I have never used pf, so will not say more of it here. I use Denyhosts, which is intended to stop brute force ssh attacks, but which can be used to deny unwanted/unwelcome connections to any or all services. It's in the ports, is easy to set up and works really well. There is a synchronisation server from which it can download IP addresses that have been logged trying to mount attacks, and allows your DenyHosts to upload addresses that have tried to crack you. There are a couple of things you can do to protect your sshd. First, allow only public key authentication. This may not be practical in all situations, but it is a very good way of preventing dictionary attacks from succeeding! Secondly, set AllowGroups or AllowUsers in your sshd.config, so that only explicitly permitted users or groups can request a login.

Re: System Intrustion Detection
M, There are several choices you can make to deal with this. First, be sure your root password is 'strong'. Generally 'strong' means that it is a combination of upper case, lower case, and numbers with a decent lenght. I personally go with at least 12 characters and throw in some punctuation as well. Also, don't use real words. Second, configure your ssh daemon to only support public key authentication (PubkeyAuthentication, RSAAuthentication). This means every user need to have a public/private key pair. One part stays on the server, the other goes to the remote system and is used to authenticate with the server. This also makes the password attacks you are seeing pretty useless. Third, if your users are all coming in from a relatively small list of IP addresses, you can consider using tcpwrappers (which should have been built in to your sshd daemon). This allows you to configure the sshd daemon to only allow access from a restricted set of ip addresses (or block a specific set of addresses). This method will also stop those messages from appearing in your mail once it is set up properly. I use all three techniques. Unfortunately, I have found that I have to pretty much exclude large parts of the world from accessing my ssh server for the third option to be effective and it is getting worse. I used to have to block only a hand full of countries but I'm now seeing attempts from several continents. M.

something like devil-linux with freebsd possible ?
hi, Because the time I use to manage our freebsd-servers grows and grows I searched the net for something like devil-linux in bsd. DevilLinux (http://www.devil-linux.org) is a nice project which makes it easy to manage a large amount of servers. Every server boots from a devil-linux-cd (or usb-stick, or something) and stores its config somewhere else. If you have to update your systems, burn the cds and change it. If something fails, put the original-cd in, and no problem. If someone has access to your server no binaries can be changed. The config is stored on the usb-stick. It will be loaded into a ramdisk and then the stick is unmounted. So you have the same config after reboot, no matter what you change. (You can do a write-config if you want to save it). I think it's a very nice project, but I am searching for the same in *BSD. Is there such a project around ? thanks, florian -- florian meister EMAIL: [EMAIL PROTECTED] TELEPHONE: +43 5572 501 134 FAX: +43 5572 501 97134 ADDRESS: gutenbergstrasse 1 6858 schwarzach vorarlberg austria WWW: www.medienhaus.at o If practice makes perfect, and nobody's perfect, why practice? o The solution of this problem is trival and is left as an exercise for the reader. o Recursive,adj.; see recursive. ___ ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Each client has a web site with one or more domains. I currently offer them apache+php+mysql+mod_perl+mod_ssl. One of them needs java server pages, tomcat I think. Everyone gets access to their own logs and to geolizer (webalizer). Some clients would like shell access. Most clients write their web site using ftp. Certain ones need also the MS Front Page Extensions. Some clients want an ftp upload area. Ssl poses a special problem in that I need to allocate an ip address for those who have their own ssl certificate. It's pretty much all standard stuff. I use suphp with apache in a mass hosting configuration for about 50 websites to take care of the php access issues. You'll need to setup the ACLs correctly so there is no snooping. I then use scponly to allow chrooted sftp access to their web directories. Webalizer logs are automatically generated an placed in their chrooted directory for download. As for shell access I don't allow it. If people want easy command line access I just tell use sshfs on FreeBSD or Linux. The Windows and Mac users don't care about shell access. For the Tomcat, Frontpage, and SSL users just setup jails for them. With the inclusion of mergemaster -u subsequent base system upgrades are much less painful. Using null mounts for the common areas should lessen the version sync issues. Once unionfs is stable again, you could just use one jail as a base image and allow the others to be cloned off of that.

I basically set up /local/jails/master and install according to man jail into this place. I never start this jail. I happen to use disk backed md devices as the root for each jail. I mount each on on /local/jail/jailname Then I do /sbin/mount_nullfs -o ro /local/jails/master/bin /local/jails/adcmw/bin /sbin/mount_nullfs -o ro /local/jails/master/lib /local/jails/adcmw/lib /sbin/mount_nullfs -o ro /local/jails/master/libexec /local/jails/ adcmw/libexec /sbin/mount_nullfs -o ro /local/jails/master/sbin /local/jails/adcmw/ sbin /sbin/mount_nullfs -o ro /local/jails/master/usr /local/jails/adcmw/usr /sbin/mount -t procfs proc /local/jails/adcmw/proc devfs_domount /local/jails/adcmw/dev devfsrules_jail devfs_set_ruleset devfsrules_jail /local/jails/adcmw/dev /sbin/devfs -m /local/jails/adcmw/dev rule -s 4 applyset In my master jail I have some symlinks so that each jail has its own / usr/local/ that is writable. All the jails run out of one installed jail and they also have the side benefit of the main system directories being read only so exploits in one jail cannot affect all the running jails.

What particularly of cvsup do you find confusing?
On the larger question: it /may/ be easier to do a binary
upgrade. On the other hand, learning about the

Specifically it would be the supfile stuff, everything I've been reading
says if you put in the wrong thing here, you can screw the whole system
up, and there aren't a lot of concrete examples, just stuff you can add
to it. So I guess what I need is a supfile example of everything I need
to upadate my kernel and library sources and what not, then I can do a
make world on it later.

You need to: 1) Make sure you have cvsup installed pkg_add -r cvsup-without-gui OR cd /usr/ports/net/cvsup-without-gui make install clean (the latter assumes you have a ports tree on your system) 2) Create a supfile appropriate for your situation (and location). Here is mine: *default host=cvsup12.freebsd.org *default base=/var/db *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_6 *default delete use-rel-suffix *default compress src-all Change the host to a mirror close to you, and change the base to wherever you want the cvsup metadata files stored. Also change the tag to RELENG_6_1 if you want the 6.1 branch instead of 6-STABLE. For more details, see the examples in /usr/share/examples/cvsup and the handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html All that the above really says is to put the RELENG_6 branch of the src-all collection into /usr (and actually into /usr/src). 3) Run it cvsup /path/to/your/supfile That's it! In the future, you just have to repeat step 3 to get the latest sources from your selected CVS branch. If you want to move to a different branch in the future (6-STABLE or 6.2 when that happens), it's just a matter of changing the tag in your supfile. Once you have the sources, you have to build and reinstall your kernel and world to actually update your system, but that's covered pretty well in the handbook and elsewhere.

You can use ether method but cvsup is best. Use my cvsup file for an example: # more ~/standard-supfile *default host=cvsup12.us.FreeBSD.org *default base=/var/db *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_6_1 *default delete use-rel-suffix *default compress src-all After you have your cvsup file done run cvsup: cvsup -g -L 2 ~/standard-supfile Then cd into /usr/src and run: make buildworld make buildkernel make installkernel Note1: unless you've edited /etc/make.conf it will build the generic kernel, this is a good thing... now reboot. when the system comes back up login and run mergemaster -p, then go into single user mode by typing 'shutdown now'. Now install world: # cd /usr/src # make installworld The last step is to run mergemaster again, without the -p flag. now reboot, your done.

FreeBSD's linker doesn't add /usr/local/lib to the search path by
default, unlike some other operating systems. The -L/usr/local/lib
flag is therefore required...
but ldconfig already found the library (line 441)!?
ld(1) doesn't consult ldconfig(8).

Specifically it would be the supfile stuff, everything I've been reading says if you put in the wrong thing here, you can screw the whole system up, A bad supfile will mess up _the source tree_; one could possibly screw up the system by setting prefix=/ ... but that's rather farfetched. And the cure for a garbled source tree is a) put the right stuff in the supfile then b) rm -rf /usr/src/* and c) re-run cvsup.

Everyone that I've spoken to agrees. It looks like some kind of sextoy/spacehopper, and not becomming to the enterprise os we know and love. Maybe it was the best from the competition you had, but I don't think it's good enough. Is there somewhere this was discussed? The new logo already looks last year. Is there a plan to redesign it each year as design trends come and go? If you compare it to the debian, IBM, BMW, greenpeace, or google logos, the design relates in some way to the subject. I don't see that happening here. Sorry if this is too late, or an unpopular opinion, or in the wrong place, but I just wondered if anyone thinks the new logo is good, and how long it's expected to last.

Re: Promise SATA controller / Maxtor drive problems
Øyvind Skaar wrote: Hi I've got a Promise SATAII 150 TX2plus (pci) controller connected to my Asus A7N8X Deluxe motherboard. The drive in question is a Maxtor 6B200M0. I had 6 Maxtor SATA drives running under FreeBSD 5.2.1 up to 5.4. Installed on three mail servers. After 6 months and 7 drive swaps I had my vendor send Seagate drives and all my problems disappeared. Issues varied from drives just falling off to DMA issues, to drives showing as corrupted and then testing good at the vendor after being returned. These were Maxtor 6Y080M0 and 6Y160MO drives. Running under onboard SATA or Highpoint Rocket Raid cards. Systems are SuperMicro, three servers delivered at the same time, one server was replaced after 3 months but problems continued until it's drives were replaced as well (the replacement server came with Maxtor drives installed again). I tested for cable issues, Goggled for FreebSD issues, updated the kernel, BIOS changes, drive settings, heat issues, etc. No joy. With no other changes than an upgrade to Seagate drives the systems have run without intervention for 11 months now. These are high traffic mail toasters. The Maxtor drives were problematic for us from the start, and not even heavy enough to make good door stops.
