[Vserver] routing question
Hi there, have a bit of problem here with setting up the proper routing for a special environment / requirement: I've here a dual-homed system which mainly should only be available to an internal net. Base host therefore hase no external IP (and shall not), all requests to external shall be routed through an (extra) NAT gateway. So far no problem, setting up all hosts only on eth1 and having a default gw on the base for this eth1 default route works fine. Now the prob: There should be set up _one_ host with also internal _and_ external IP (on eth0) which should externally use a different gw and also which should not change anything on the base setup. But if I activate _any_ external IP on eth0 the (previous) default route for eth1 is nomore used but guests (only having eth1 activated!) try to connect direct through this eth0 ip which they naturally can't use so traffic stops completely 8-( Any idea's/hint's? -- regards, Guenther Fuchs ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver

Something like rpm -qa --root=/vservers/test/ should show installed packages, and right now it doesn't. No, as far is I read in the list archive, it should _not_. Google for vserver pkgmgmt internalize - you should find this somewhere.

Hi there, on Samstag, 17. September 2005 at 18:29 Benny posted on the list: Did you recently upgrade to yum-2.4.0-0.fc4? Yes, as this ran automatic I have the same problem, and it seems to be mitigated by downgrading yum to yum-2.3.2-7. That brought me now to a working vserver build - thank's for that! Seems to be a version problem between 2.3 and 2.4 yum -- regards, Guenther Fuchs ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
[Vserver] strange yum build errror
Hi there, although I remember having successfully built guests I cannot manage to reproduce this for some unknown reason. Sys: Amd64/vs 2.0/tools 0.30.208 (with and w/o fix02) build command: # vserver xxx build -m yum --hostname xxx.example.com -- -d fc4 Error from that: No Repositories Available to Set Up No Match for argument: glibc No Repositories Available to Set Up No Match for argument: filesystem No Repositories Available to Set Up No Match for argument: coreutils No Match for argument: setup chroot-shopen(/etc/sysconfig/network): No such file or directory chroot-shopen(etc/inittab): No such file or directory Checking sources: /lib/util-vserver/distributions/fc4/ has it's repositories proper setup at yum.repos.de/*.repo - they where copied from a working fc4 host dir ... Strange, very strange - checking the result: /vsr/xxx/etc/ has no yum.repos.de and no yum.conf getting copied Anoyone any ideas? -- regards, Guenther Fuchs ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver

Hi there, on Donnerstag, 15. September 2005 at 18:31 on the list was posted: somehow looks like a broken repository ... looks more like _no_ repository beeing used although they are placed in the util-vserver configuration. Btw: placing the yum files into /etc/vservers/.distributions/fc4/yum/... does not change this error. sounds like external vs. internal package management again, just guessing ... As this is the build option beeing used, it should completely beeing build by external package management. So you're right, ther's not necessarely anything inside the gust. Checking the .pkg dir reveals everything beeing there as it should: /vsr/.pkg/xxx/yum contains cache and etc, etc containing the conf and a proper link to the repos dir. So everything looking fine, except yum not beeing able to find the repos - even more strange now than before -- regards, Guenther Fuchs ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
Re: [Vserver] Intel or AMD
Hi there, on Donnerstag, 01. September 2005 at 13:55 on the list was posted: I don't have an AMD machine to test this on, so have to ask. Are there any known problems running vservers on an AMD host? At my location I have changed now to am Amd64 (Athlon 4000+) which is running fine at kernel 2.6.12-4 with vs2.0 as yet. Load at now 2.0 GB RAM is very low compared to the previous Celeron 2.4 GHz with 1.0 GB and kernel 2.4 - but I assume this to be quite logical effect ;-) Anyone have experience with loads and uptimes compared to Intel chips? Not really as yet - but system is running fine since I changed to it a couple of days aggo now. (I have a dual Xeon which is crashing too frequently and needs to be changed, while the other single Pentiums are fine). How is the system crashing / what exactly is the problem? Kernel panics or what? -- regards, Guenther Fuchs ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver

[Vserver] ifaces mess on vs2.0
Hi there, have now successfully running vs2.0 on kernel 2.6.12.4 on Amd64 (x86_64) with 32bit guest systems created on vs1.2.10 and migrated w/setting up new configuration dirs. Everything running fine, only the network interfaces look a bit strange to me as I do not understand why there's a difference in ifconfig output on them (all on ipv4 only): There's an external NIC (eth0) and an internal (eth1), as the base is a border host between wan and lan. eth0 is not started on the host on boot, as host should only be visable and available to lan connections. Output of iconfig shows proper after boot, eth1 is shown correct with proper LAN IP. After first guest is started (vserver xxx start), ifconfig on host shows eth0 with IP from first guest. Also connections from host to internet are now possible (which shouldn't really) with source IP that first guest IP. Inside thhat guest ifconfig shows proper data for eth0 (for that host only), but eth1 is missing the inet Adress/Bcast/.. line as well as the alias for that interface (two virtual LANs connected to eth1, so some guests have access to both). Each further guest finally then shows eth0 without the adress line and also eth1 same way, so there's no adress at all visible. Doesn't look kind of designed that way to me - should it? In 1.2.10 ifconfig showed alias names within the guests and all active inter- faces on the host, here at 2.0 there does not seem to exist alias names like ethX:guest[N] anymore. Any ideas where this could source / and maybe fixed? (Best would be to show only relevant interfaces on each system and also not to allow the host to connect anywhere using a guest ressource without explicit specification somewhere). -- regards, Guenther Fuchs ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver

Hi there, on Samstag, 20. August 2005 at 21:46 on the list was posted: 64 bit host system, no 32bit emulation for the (obviously) 32bit guest? Obviousely. 64bit is totally new to me, so apologize for my non-knowledge. you might want to set a linux32 personality there ... Sounds like a solution - if I only could figure out, how to do this. Setting PER_LINUX32 into personality does not change anything with me, and I'm not realy familiar with that task. -- regards, Guenther Fuchs ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
