Hi Sukender,

 Do your server have a protection software or something similar (I heard some 
 free exist and are quite good, butn I don't know more)?

Of course, we have a firewall that works quite well, the only thing I
needed to do is fill it with a blacklist (collected by a script that
parses the apache output). I'm looking for a long term solution, more
general, an IDS capable of detect and block this kind of attack.

 Is the 948 machines attack a Distributed DoS?

Sure, they are doing an stupid access to the machine, thanks to that I
can easily filter the traffic, right now it is almost under control. I
though every IP was from Australia, but actually it is from all over
places. Does anybody know a good technique to join single IP to block
bigger networks?

 I find this quite alarming and have two questions that may never have a 
 perfect answer: who?, and why?.

No clue, I suppose our server is easy to attack, that's enough. Given
the enough time every server is tested, that's not new... but still a
pity. But don't see this very alarming, we will work out a solution
and right now the server is working fine.

 The fact is that it causes the server to be less user friendly (slowdowns, 
 need to login before seeing the timeline). I of course understand your 
 position, but if all of this is really an attack, this is bad news. Maybe our 
 previous problems with the server came from here?...

Could be, the other apache was shared among other projects, and was
difficult to spot that kind of traffic... I will look at it, anyway
the migration to a virtualized machine gives us more control, so it's
a good move.

Cheers,
   Jose-L.

Hi,

I can't seem to get my email address verified from trac. Tried 2
addresses and pressed resend email multiple time. I have not received
anything yet.

HI All,

The migration is beta-completed, we need now to test it and fix the
errors that surely will arise. As I've previously told you there is no
more OSG user to make changes on the wiki, now everybody should
register itself (but please do not use the e-mail feature, currently
the server doesn't send messages and your account won't be active).

For those who had a subversion account your username/password is the
same on Trac, now users from trac and subversion share the same
database (that will make easier to grant svn access in the future).

Users are the same for every project hosted on OSG server, no need
to register twice. Also please do not use your super-very-secret
password here, just in case.

Next week, I will setup the FTP service which will replace our
webdav service to upload content (for those who had access), I will
thank a lot if those who need access to the server could refresh my
memory sending me an email (with copy to Robert).

Remember that we are testing the server, I would be very thankful if
you shared with me any flaw you detect in order to solve it as fast
as possible.

Thank you all for your patience.

Cheers,
Jose-Luis H.

Hi All,

The migration is almost complete:

http://beta.openscenegraph.org

I've also changed all the Center macro, for those with curiosity:
mkdir -p $TMP
trac-admin . wiki dump $TMP
for file in $TMP/*; do
sed -i -e 's/\[\[Center(begin)\]\]/{{{\n#!div style=text-align:
center\n/g' -e 's/\[\[Center(end)\]\]/\n}}}/g' $file
done
trac-admin . wiki load $TMP

Now I'm going to have a little break, then update macro permissions,
configure properly the plugins, and ftp (but this one won't work until
tomorrow because I need the UPV to open the 21 port).

then a little bit of testing... cross your fingers.

Cheers,
Jose-Luis H.

Just checked openscenegraph.org, nice front page notification and link
to old.openscenegraph.org ;-)

Re: [osg-users] OpenSceneGraph-2.8.0-rc3 tagged, please test

2009-02-09 Thread J.P. Delport


Hi,

I updated the OpenSceneGraph-2.8.0 branch to 9711. Must I rather check 
out the tag?


All built fine (debug build) with 0 errors and 0 warnings.

Debian Sid gcc version 4.3.3 (Debian 4.3.3-3).

Results also on cdash website under experimental.

Hi All,

It turns out that the 2.8.0-rc2 was made from svn/trunk rather than
the OpenSceneGraph-2.8 from which it was meant to be made.  I've
spotted the error in my OSG maintainer section of
OpenSceneGraph/CMakeLists.txt and now when I make an rc it should
indeed come from the 2.8 branch.  As well as fixing the source of the
rc I've also made a couple of minor bug fixes.  As usual you can grab
the latest from:

http://www.openscenegraph.org/projects/osg/wiki/Downloads

Details:

Stable Release 2.8.0, release candidate 3, released 8th February 2009.
Further information...

Please test this release candidate, and report success/failure to the
osg-users mailing list.
Source Code:

source package : OpenSceneGraph-2.8.0-rc3.zip
svn tag: svn co
http://www.openscenegraph.org/svn/osg/OpenSceneGraph/tags/OpenSceneGraph-2.8.0-rc3
OpenSceneGraph

The source package isn't generated yet, as the new server isn't
automatically generating the source packages like the previous server
was.  So grab the svn tag.  I'll get a source package upload tomorrow
if Jose Luis doesn't get to before I do.

I would very much like to make the final 2.8.0 release tomorrow, so if
rc3 compiles and runs well across platforms I'll make no further
changes other than release dates, and resetting the release candidate
number back to 0 to signify a final stable release.

Thanks in advance for all the testing :-)
Robert.
