[leaf-user] 6.04 Release

2017-06-29 Thread Robert K Coffman Jr. -Info From Data Corp.

FYI,

I've been running the 6.04 release for several days across 4 machines 
and all seems well.


My primary packages are dnsmasq and openvpn.  The issue I had with ntp 
segfaulting is not occurring with this release.

you have to load the “ bbnameif.lrp “ package, by adding it in your list of packages to load in leaf.cfg, 
I hate that I reinvented the wheel on this one!  I was going to suggest 
my script as a package but nobody else seemed to have run into this.

It appears to be fine, with uClibc 0.9.33.2 and ntpd 4.2.8p7.

I also loaded the current ntpd (4.2.8p10) on 5.2.8 and it works fine.

I'm using the i686 release.

If I run it under VMWare ESXi with two cores, it crashes.  If I reduce 
the cores to one, it works fine.  It seems to affect any machine I run 
it on that has more than one core or hyperthreading.

It is happening on Leaf 6.02 / ntpd 4.2.8p9 / uClibc 1.0.17
It is happening on Leaf 6.03 / ntpd 4.2.8p10 / uClibc 1.0.17

The previous Leaf release I was using was 5.1.3, which was ntpd 4.2.8p1 
and uClibc 0.9.33.2.  It did not exhibit this problem.

I'm working this with NTP people, however I have found this occurring 
with the NTPD that ships with 6.03,  and on other hardware than the HP I 
originally discovered it on.  If you are running NTP, please confirm 
that it is working, and also please run ntpd --version and confirm that 
it does not segfault, even if your service is running correctly.

On HP DC7600 and  using Bering-uClibc_6.0.2_i686_syslinux_vga, ntpd 
segfaults at startup (even something like ntpd --version).

Seems to be something with that particular hardware, as I have other 
machines with the same release loaded that are working fine.

I've examined the executables, packages, and libraries with SHA1SUM and 
all looks fine.

4.  build-dh

7.  (CLIENT FILE BUILDS)
a.  Modify the vars file to change the common name to be the client 
common name, i.e. c_servername_client1.  Re-run . /etc/easyrsa/vars. 
VARS must match the parameter you pass it in the next step!
b.  pkitool c_servername_client1

[leaf-user] 5.2.5-rc2

2016-03-20 Thread Robert K Coffman Jr. -Info From Data Corp.
I had a chance to take a quick look at this version.

1.  VMXNET3 works on ESXi 5.5, but the adapter type has to be VMXNET3 
and not Flexible.  Whether or not VMXNET3 is an option depends on the 
machine type you specify when creating the VM.  RH Linux 6 (32 bit) for 
example will offer VMXNET3.  Other Linux (32 bit) does not.  I 
transferred about a gigabyte through this adapter in both directions to 
test and observed no errors.

2.  Putty gives "Couldn't agree a key exchange algorithm" and Dropbear 
logs "no matching algo kex" on my system.  I installed this version by 
basically replacing all the files in /dev/sda1 from an existing 
unconfigured system (5.1.3 based) except for leaf.cfg and configdb.lrp. 
  I doubt this problem is related to the way I upgraded but I don't know 
that for sure.  I regenerated the dropbear keys and the problem persists.

I will continue testing.  Thank you!

[leaf-user] Upgrading Many Firewalls

2014-10-23 Thread Robert K Coffman Jr. -Info From Data Corp.
I have a number of 4.x Leaf boxes that it is probably past time to upgrade.

I was considering creating a script that I would run on a generically 
installed, current Leaf box that would copy over the configuration files 
from the old firewall, so that most of the work in upgrading would be in 
imaging the new box and physically installing it.

Does this have any chance of working well?  I know some packages may no 
longer be supported, and I'm willing to manually upgrade/replace those, 
but I'd like to automate whatever I can.

everything in its proper place, and reboot to bring it back online.  Can 
this be done?

The current release (4.2 beta) is too large for the root drive of my 
storage (vfat /dev/sda1).  If I move these files into a subdirectory 
rather than the root of the hard drive, how do I reflect that in 
leaf.cfg and syslinux.cfg?

Thanks!

[leaf-user] NIC Modules

2011-10-13 Thread Robert K Coffman Jr. -Info From Data Corp.

I'm starting to roll out 4.x and I have a few questions.

1.  NIC modules - how are these loaded?  I used to control which NIC was 
eth0 / eth1 by the module load order in /etc/modules.  I can't find how 
these get loaded now.

2.  Is upgrading the 4.x series as simple as copying the .LRP/ files 
from the new release, and then restoring the moddb, configdb, and leaf.cfg?

Thanks for the excellent work.

Re: [leaf-user] 2.6 Branch?

2009-08-05 Thread Robert K Coffman Jr. -Info From Data Corp.
Gordon,

 Call me stupid

Never!  I'm relieved to hear that this proposed solution is running at least
one other place.

I had Leaf running on VMWare for a long time, but I moved it off of it not
because of performance issues, of which there were none, but only because I
didn't want to lose internet connectivity when I took the VMWare server
down.

Re: [leaf-user] 2.6 Branch?

2009-08-05 Thread Robert K Coffman Jr. -Info From Data Corp.
 I'm considering chaining two Leaf Routers together, one to handle the
 multiple ISPs and one for TC as a temporary solution, 

 How does this solve the 2.6 requirement?

Erich,

The basic issue is I can't use HIGH_ROUTE_MARKS=Yes in Shorewall.  As a
result, I can't do both Multi-ISP and Traffic Shaping on the same box.  All
I did by chaining two routers together was put the traffic shaping on one,
and multi-ISP on the other.

[leaf-user] 2.6 Branch?

2009-08-04 Thread Robert K Coffman Jr. -Info From Data Corp.
I see some emails from March of 2008 discussing some initial work on a 2.6
branch of Leaf.  Can anyone tell me what came of that?  

I found a scenario where a 2.6 branch is necessary.  I'm trying to do
multi-ISP  traffic control on the same box, and because Shorewall requires
some 2.6 features to set HIGH_ROUTE_MARKS=Yes, I'm unable to do so.  

I'm considering chaining two Leaf Routers together, one to handle the
multiple ISPs and one for TC as a temporary solution, or moving to another
distro for this application, which has its own set of issues.

Thanks -

Bob Coffman

Boris,

Is your SBS pointed to itself for DNS?  It should be.  You can use the DNS
server on Leaf as a forwarder.

Re: [leaf-user] Upgrade instructions

2008-06-23 Thread Robert K Coffman Jr. -Info From Data Corp.
Tony,


I've tried what I thought would work (booting with the CD, loading the 
modules into /lib/modules and trying to save to diskette) but it hasn't 
worked.


I think you are on the right track.  

Take a look at your leaf.cfg.  The following is noted there:

# The first entry is the backup device.
# The path is parsed in reversed order, packages on the first device listed
will be loaded last.
PKGPATH=/dev/hda1:msdos

I think you need to modify PKGPATH so the floppy device is listed first,
followed by the CDROM.  I'm guessing that a semicolon should separate the
two.  

By the way, the new style (introduced in 3.0) of saving
modules/configuration changes separately from the packages is excellent.
Thank you devs!

- Bob Coffman

I've run into one situation where dhcpcd would not pull an address from the
ISP and pump worked fine.  Perhaps you are running into something like that
rather than a driver problem?

Re: [leaf-user] Kernel Panic Error

2008-04-01 Thread Robert K Coffman Jr. -Info From Data Corp.
I think one possible issue is that VMWare has an issue with the larger
floppy size.  I ran into this on VMWare Server and it has been a while so I
don't know if that is still a problem.

Try copying the files to a standard 1.44MB floppy.
