I am looking for both the hardware solutions that are being used, as well as the software solution. Software wise I already know of Realnetworks, and have heard a little bit about Oracle Video Streaming. I was wondering if there exists other solutions, even if not just Fbsd based. Finally those of you out there that do live streaming, This location is going to have 4 to 5 cameras; is it too much to believe that a fairly powerful server could handle that? Or would it be wiser to do something like 2 cameras per server? We initially are looking at about a 100 streams per camera; eventually maybe growing to as many as 500 streams, or even more.

Check also for attempts to send a large email message. Those are *very* small / and /var partitions, especially if the size of the /usr* partitions is any indication of the number of users or load of the machine... Does FreeBSD's install still suggest 30Mb is a good size for a /var partition? One or two large emails in /var/mail/ and it's used up...

(In fact, I'm ordering two more from mcglen.com in the next day or so) Their cousins also bailed me out when Adaptec drivers were not able to handle NNTP traffic on a pair of CCDs. We were using a pair of 9GB drives on one CCD and a few 4GB drives on another. The CCDs were split across the cards. Added async IO when the system proved itself stable, and I was just amazed at the throughput. FreeBSD's Adaptec drivers are much better now, but I've never gone back... - Jy@ On Sun, 12 Dec 1999, Gary D. Margiotta wrote: > Am about to purchase 2 u2w controllers for a box...

There are several things to point out here: - A Tekram board can mean one with a NCR/Symbios/LSI chip, one with an AMD 53c974 (DC390, I think) or one with Tekram's own Ultra-Wide chip (the DC395 boards, I think). I would advise against getting an AMD-based board for anything but a cheap SCSI board, and I wouldn't advise getting boards based on their Ultra-Wide chip. Tekram has written a FreeBSD driver for their TRM-S1040, but from the implementation it appears that the chip, like the AMD 53c974, doesn't have a SCSI phase engine. If you're going to get a Tekram board, get one of their Symbios/LSI based boards. - I would not recommend the stock FreeBSD ncr driver for production use. I know many people have had good success with it, and will swear that their hardware has never given them trouble, and on and on, but that doesn't change the facts: - The ncr driver isn't being actively maintained. - Its error recovery code leaves much to desired. Most people who have had great success with their NCR boards also probably haven't had very many SCSI hardware problems. I would recommend the sym driver, written by Gerard Roudier . The sym driver is actively maintained, but is still in the beta phase. The source is located here: ftp://ftp.tux.org/tux/roudier/drivers/freebsd/experimental If you want to use the driver in production, contact Gerard first. - The Adaptec driver/hardware is being used in production in many, many places. It is well maintained and supported, and is certainly a much better alternative than the ncr driver. Once Gerard's sym driver gets to the "release" stage, it will probably be just as good a choice as the Adaptec driver. - If you do use an Adaptec board, I would suggest using a very recent -stable or FreeBSD 3.4. There was an important work-around for a bug in the 7890 that went in just after FreeBSD 3.3, and Justin checked in some termination fixes for the 7896/7 this weekend.

Get Freebsd to share the printer and the folders - I heard of some tool called Exalaber that can also do the job - Samba - to share files with Windows 98 and share printers with Windows 98 Question: - - Will Samba be able to solve all my problems? - If I configure Freebsd as a NFS server is it possible I can make Windows 98 a NFS client? - Maybe I better solution that may not involve Freebsd. Any advice will help alot. Thankss.

We have cucipop running as a standalone (not through inet) and it handles the load of 12k people. Every now and then it just stops authenticating, the popper spawns a new process, but once a user tries to check mail, it replies that the username or password is incorrect. Restarting the cucipop solves this problem but there is no indication of what caused it in the first place. The computer itself is a nis slave server, and /var/mail is symlinked to a nfs raid server. I am also unable to find a single resource of information for cucipop. If anyone has had this problem or an idea on what is causing this problem, please contact me.

We use our own and very modified source for Radius. This has been working quite well running under 2.2.7 and 3.1. Recently we'ce changed over to 3.3r and that's when the shit hit the fan : Radius is only allowed to spawn 100 child processes. We've seen it happen twice now that Radius *thinks* it has more then 100 childs running and refuses any more connections while there are actually *none* except for the father. Somehow Radius is not receiving the sig child signal and is waiting for one or more childs to die. Well, this might be a bug in our Radius source code (and we're looking in to that) but what puzzles me is that it always worked under 2.2.7 and 3.1. Question : is anyone aware of any changes in the way sig child signals are issued or handled under 3.3-r or possible someone has the same problems. Let me know, last night all of our radius boxes died allmost at the same time, leaving my NOC without any customer authentification :( This happened twice now in one week and I'm NOT a happy bunny... ao -- arjan van der oest - systems administrator - arjan@nl.demon.net Demon Internet NOC, Amsterdam. www.demon.nl My views cannot be held to represent those of Demon Internet...

I am looking for both the hardware solutions that are being used, as well as the software solution. Software wise I already know of Realnetworks, and have heard a little bit about Oracle Video Streaming. I was wondering if there exists other solutions, even if not just Fbsd based. Finally those of you out there that do live streaming, This location is going to have 4 to 5 cameras; is it too much to believe that a fairly powerful server could handle that? Or would it be wiser to do something like 2 cameras per server? We initially are looking at about a 100 streams per camera; eventually maybe growing to as many as 500 streams, or even more.

It holds our MySQL database of around 30 million records (one of the tables is 600M in size...) and the whole system flies. I've pulled out and pushed in drives while FreeBSD and MySQL were ticking and there wasn't any problems at all. We installed 16 megs of ram onto the DPT board, which was about $1,500 from some place on http://pricewatch.com/ . I simply used the DPT lines in LINT into our kernel, recompiled, and used DPT's software to create the RAID partition. Now we have a partition called /raid that is 27 gigs total of RAID-5 protection. The only catch to this is that the SCSI connection is only at 40 Megs/second verses the nifty 80 that the drives *could* do. However, the DPT card has like a dozen LEDs that all blink and jive, so I think that makes up for the shortcoming.

However, based on the fact that this is mail.local, and the file system looks fine when you look at it, this is almost certainly the bug that somebody else mentioned, that somebody is trying to deliver a very large mail message. Later versions of FreeBSD (I think 3.2 and up, but it could be 3.3) no longer have this problem. In your case, you can do one of these: 1. Go into /var/spool/mqueue and look for a very big file, which will have a name like dfSAA00420. Delete it and the corresponding file qfSAA00420 (same name except for the q at the start). 2. Install a newer version of mail.local, which will create its temp file in /var/tmp instead of /tmp. 3. Create a memory file system with enough space and mount /tmp on it. I would personally go for (1). People shouldn't be sending 15 MB mail messages.

Inhouse sending files as attachments is by far the most convenient method to distribute documents. They can get quite large (i.e. nice powerpoint presentations). I vote for very large default spool areas (they not only send them powerpoint presentations, they also want to print them). The automatic calculation of partitions under freebsd leads to unuseable mail and print spool systems in practice.

(if not, visit http://freebsd.lanfear.com/howtos/frontpage.html) One issue that is not discussed: If you create a new virtual web, AND you make yourself the administrator, AND you give the fpsrvadm.exe program the same password that you use on your Win32 machine, THEN fp will automatically log you on using your Win32 log in and password. To test if this is the problem, open the fp virtual web and then click on tools -> security. Change your FrontPage password or remove yourself from the permissions list, exit fp, restart fp and you will probably need to enter a password. You can also have someone on a different machine/different log in name open the web using fp. Chances are, they'll have to use a password. I hope this helps.

With either of these suggestions, when you run out of space on one partition, you'll have plenty on some other partition (probably / in this case, unless you're putting /tmp there, which is a Bad Idea). How can you possibly guess how big your /var file system will become? I would recommend: 50MB / 256MB swap (don't forget that!) rest /usr Then create symlinks for /tmp, /var and, if you need, /home. If you need to restrict growth of a specific file system, use quotas. If your disk is bigger than your backup tape, make enough equal-sized partitions so that each fits on a single tape.

Actually, /tmp is a 64MB mfs on the old system. I remember trying that once in the past on another machine thinking it was a good idea and then changing my mind, but can't remember why. Nobody here has suggested using mfs either. Is it worth considering? > How can you possibly guess how big your /var file system will become? Not that hard. On the old system it's 800MB and only a quarter of that is used, so 800MB again should see it through. > I would recommend: > > 50MB / Will that remain enough in the future? > 256MB swap (don't forget that!) Oh, it will have at least that much memory so I was planning on giving it a gigabyte.

Backups are a consideration, but not the size of the backup tapes. There are only a handful of tapes which are shared between several machines, and what doesn't fit doesn't get backed up. There is little hope of getting more tapes and only the most necessary filesystems are backed up. The definition of necessary is determined and changed by others. Also these machines have a history if disk problems, accidental power outages, and periodic managerial reboots to freshen them up or to solve hard puzzling behaviour. That is unlikely to change much. All I can do is minimise and repair the damage. Often after a reboot a server is offline while fscking, and I'd like those periods to be shorter, ie, not 8 gigs worth every time, and to have less to restore if a filesystem is really hosed. With mail spool and home directories on separate drives, there is going to be a lot of unused space on this drive. Given the ample free space, a moderate approach to partitioning seems more prudent than a single partition, don't you think?

We then run symlinks all over the place. Scales nicely... Add more /var for a busy mailserver etc.... 1Gig /var is what we do for default even on workstations. Stuff like printjobs, system logfiles etc... all need lots of spare in /var and /var/tmp If you do a lot of kernel builds I would recommend relocating /usr/src etc... to /u1 also.

In case you don't know (it's in man fsck), if you want to cut down the fsck time to minimum, multiple disks are better since they can be checked in parallel. -l Limit the number of parallel checks to the number specified in the following argument. By default, the limit is the number of disks, running one process per disk. If a smaller limit is giv- en, the disks are checked round-robin, one filesystem at a time.

I think "AllowOverride Options" also enables "Options ExecCGI" which is allows you to execute arbitary commands from your document root. We patched apache to allow for an "Options None" even though there was no AllowOverride Options for the directory. At least fp98 used to put Options None into the .htaccess files making it necessary to add AllowOverride Options. ;-( Greetings Christian -- TopLink Internet Services GmbH ck@171.2.195.in-addr.arpa Christian Kratzer http://www.toplink.net/ Phone: +49 7032 2701-0 Fax: +49 7032 2701-19 FreeBSD spoken here!

I wanted the highest performance possible, so I tried to think of things that HAVE to happen at the same time tried to arrange things so they affect different disks. mail coming in smtpd: connect has to get logged, mail has to get logged and queued. This is why /var and /var/log are on different disks locally generated mail: mail has to be queued and logged. /var and /var/log on different disks; mail going out from queue to remote hosts: mail has do be dequeued, and logged. /var and /var/log on different disks; mail going from queue to local addresses: mail has to be dequeued, logged and written to /usr/home; Can't optimize this without 3 disks. I decided to put /var and /var/log on different disks to make the remote delivery as fast as possible, as that is most of the mail we handle (mailing lists unbalance this so much) It seems to be performing well, and the is virtually no activity on / or /usr, so it should be relatively safe during unplanned shutdowns. Any comments? Also, has anybody out there struck a happy balance between running in securelevel > -1 and still being able to upgrade the machine? I was thinking of having all my servers check some sort of master machine (via scp) for an upgrade tarfile for them. something like this: securehost.axl.net is the server running in a high securelevel master.axl.net is the master server. during boot, before the securelevel raise, securehost would try to scp securehost.tar.gz from master.axl.net. If it failed, just continue with the boot. If it succeeded, untar it and run and the included file 'runme' or whatever. This would make whatever changes you need to be made, and then continue with the boot. In any case, I'm just trying to get the benefits of securelevels without being screwed if say a local root whole was found in /sbin/ping. (couldn't update the binary due to immutable flag), and log rotation(append only) Anyone have any better ideas? Matthew B.

The problem is that with IP aliases under 3.3 the arps are not setup right when the interface is configured. So, you have to put associate the ethernet card's hardware address (mac address) to the IP number of the alias.. if the alias IP is 203.1.2.3, and it's hardware address is 00:80:5f:84:5d:63, do the following... arp -s 203.1.2.3 00:80:5f:84:5d:63 then you will be able to ping 203.1.2.3. Now, my question then becomes, what is the best way to fix this on startup, so that all services come up normally that rely on this ip address... is it a bug in 3.3 perhaps that it doesn't happen automatically?

I was thinking, have a place for PGP-signed scripts that could be executed pre-securelevel. When you need to make a change, create a script, check it over (so you don't shoot yourself in the foot), sign it, stick it in a special directory and reboot. I've been meaning to implement it myself but I haven't gotten around to it yet. If someone else gets to it before I do, I know of two technical issues with PGP-signed scripts: 1- Scripts should require a sequence number to prevent replay attacks. 2- Some/all versions of PGP (2.6.* for sure, maybe later versions also) don't include anything before the first blank line in the signature. That is, you can insert stuff at the top of the PGP-signed file before the first blank line without invalidating the signature. Also, with regards to the boot scripts, it would be a very good idea to seperate the boot process into what absolutely must be done pre-securelevel, and what can be done after. Then you can set immutable the pre-securelevel rc scripts and everything they call. This would allow you to lock down what you must lock down while still being able to edit the post-securelevel stuff without unnecessary hassle. Any further discussion on this matter should probably be directed to the freebsd-security list.

Can anyone shed some light? It just works, thats probably why nobody talks about it. I have been using Cyrus for about 250 accounts for a couple of years with a mix of both IMAP and POP3 clients (moving towards 100% IMAP) without any problems whatsoever.

However to run utilities that mark blocks as bad you will have to be almost at the controller level. Also - depending on the drive you have, automatic reallocation on reads, or writes, or both, may be turned on. It will give you errors such as above for informational use only, and after re-mapping presents itself to the OS as a perfect device as far as blocks are concerned. I had an older ESDI drive with this in it, and I'd accumulate a few bad blocks every one or two months. Got a lot one day when the system go bumped. It continued on, adding bad blocks for over FIVE YEARS - before the controller failed. The drive ran 365x24x7 for Seven years and two months.

I've setup dozens of servers this way and never had a problem. Guess one admin's "just plan wrong" is another's "works best". In fact one of the most frequent tech support calls we get is for help dealing with filled partitions. This is, 9 times out of 10, due to unnecessary partitioning of one or two system disks. > Filesystems should be created to separate the critical > from the non-critical for one. Where there's a strong possibility that a user or application might fill a critical filesystem perhaps, but that wouldn't be a normal system. Also, when /tmp becomes full it can cause problems no matter what disk it's on. You don't necessarily gain anything by putting it on it's own filesystem unless you have /var/spool/XXX or /var/tmp/XXX. Of course a runaway process might be using/filling these directories as well as /tmp. In the end, it's an application specific decision. On large multi-user systems it is a good idea to separate system, user, and application trees on their own filesystems. But that scenario is better addressed by dedicated NFS servers as opposed to local partitions. -- Roger Marquis Roble Systems Consulting http://www.roble.com/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-isp Tue Dec 21 23:29:31 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-isp@freebsd.org Received: from misery.sdf.com (misery.sdf.com [204.244.213.49]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E62DB15204 for ; Tue, 21 Dec 1999 23:29:25 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from tom@sdf.com) Received: from tom (helo=localhost) by misery.sdf.com with local-esmtp (Exim 2.12 #1) id 120dcO-00029k-00; Tue, 21 Dec 1999 20:43:20 -0800 Date: Tue, 21 Dec 1999 20:43:19 -0800 (PST) From: Tom To: Roger Marquis Cc: freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: RE: partition sizes and securelevel questions In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org On Tue, 21 Dec 1999, Roger Marquis wrote: > > I just finished setting up a new mail server, and this is what I ended up > > with: > > /dev/da0s1a 127023 21254 95608 18% / > > /dev/da0s1e 2032623 726774 1143240 39% /usr > > /dev/da0s1f 6533601 98938 5911975 2% /var > > /dev/da1s1e 1016303 5892 929107 1% /var/log > > /dev/da1s1f 7417626 807885 6016331 12% /usr/home > > ... > > I wanted the highest performance possible, so I tried to think of things > > that HAVE to happen at the same time tried to arrange things so they affect > > different disks. > > This model has 5 partitions on 2 disks.

Perhaps it > would be easier to use symbolic links to maintain /var/log on a > different disk than /var? Uhhh... some big problems with that. /tmp should be a separate file system. So that is 3 partitions so far. "/" should be simple, so that gives you "/", "/tmp", "/usr", and "/var" for a minimum of 4 filesystems. Sizing filesystems is difficult, but using as one filesystem per disk is just plain wrong. Filesystems should be created to separate the critical from the non-critical for one. For instance, if there isn't a separate /tmp filesystem (MFS or otherwise), any user can screw up your system by filling the root filesystem. If /var or /var/log isn't a separate isn't a separate filesystem, it is SO easy, either accidentally or deliberatelly for logs to run away to consume all free space. In each case, you have the risk of non-critical things (logs, and temporary files) shutting down actual important stuff. > -- > Roger Marquis > Roble Systems Consulting > http://www.roble.com/ Tom To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-isp Wed Dec 22 1:32:51 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-isp@freebsd.org Received: from colossus.invictanet.co.uk (colossus.invictanet.co.uk [62.232.18.118]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4041E14F20 for ; Wed, 22 Dec 1999 01:32:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from martynr@invictanet.co.uk) Received: from harry (warp9-29.enta-net.co.uk [195.74.110.30]) by colossus.invictanet.co.uk (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id JAA15250 for ; Wed, 22 Dec 1999 09:32:55 GMT Reply-To: From: "Martyn Routley" To: "Freebsd-ISP" Subject: RE: partition sizes and securelevel questions Date: Wed, 22 Dec 1999 09:32:43 -0000 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook IMO, Build 9.0.2416 (9.0.2910.0) X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 In-Reply-To: Importance: Normal Sender: owner-freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I have a question about partitions instead of another solution.

When you are assured that everything works fine, you can rm -rf /var1. (you should do that when nobody uses the system) I tried that on many machines that had their /var quite full and desperately needing attention, but it's maybe not optimal for a loaded server, because there may be a slowdown because of the symbolic link. Maybe the systems programmers could shed light on this issue.

By the time the drive gets this bad, they're on death's doorstep. You should check, however, if your drive has ARRE/AWRE turned on. From "The Complete FreeBSD": Modern disks make provisions for recovering from such errors by allocating an alternate sector for the data. IDE drives do this automatically, but with SCSI drives you have the option of enabling or disabling reallocation. Usually it is turned on when you buy them, but occasionally it is not. When installing a new disk, you should check that the parameters ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enable) and AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enable) are turned on. For example, to check and set the values for disk da1, you would enter: # camcontrol modepage da1 -m 1 -e -P 3 This command will start up your favourite editor (either the one specified in the EDITOR environment variable, or vi by default) with the following data: AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enbld): 0 ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enbld): 1 TB (Transfer Block): 0 RC (Read Continuous): 0 EER (Enable Early Recovery): 0 PER (Post Error): 0 DTE (Disable Transfer on Error): 0 DCR (Disable Correction): 0 Read Retry Count: 16 Correction Span: 41 Head Offset Count: 0 Data Strobe Offset Count: 0 Write Retry Count: 16 Recovery Time Limit: 0 The values for AWRE and ARRE should both be 1. If they aren't, as in this case, where AWRE is 0, change the data with the editor, save it, and exit. The camcontrol program will write the data back to the disk and enable the option.

Before I received your message, I had removed the existing installation and started with Apache + mod_ssl + mod_frontpage (1.3.9 + 2.4.2 + 3.0.4). That seems to be running fine now. The installation procedure seems to be much smoother.

Should I rig the adduser.conf so that new >users all go into the same group like before, or should I let new users >take individual groups FreeBSD-style? What are the pros and cons? One of the traditional differences between the BSD & USG approaches to group membership is that in the BSD world, a given user was a member of a set of groups (the upper bound of which is defined in NGROUPS, in /usr/include/sys/param.h), while in the USG world, a user was in a single group at a time, and used the "newgrp" command to switch from one to another (which is a built-in in some shells). So the essential point is that since we're discussing a BSD system, this isn't quite the binary choice it might first appear to be; a user can be in multiple groups at the same time. That, then, brings us to the extent to which it matters which group is specified in the passwd entry. First, a disclaimer: things such as /etc/login.conf surprised me when I started using/administering FreeBSD; much of my BSD experience is based on SunOS 4.1.1_U1 (and prior systems). So there may well be changes more recent than I'm aware of, and you'd do well to keep that in mind. That said, the group mention in the passwd file is used to establish the default group ownership of files that are created. (This is overridden if the setgid bit is set in the containing directory at the time of file creation, and it is overridden in such a case to be the group that owns the directory in question.) So, if the environment is such where you have "enough" (a rather context-sensitive notion, that) file-creation happening in directories without the setgid bit set, and you want the group-ownership of those files to be different, depending on various factors, then it would seem to make sense to set up the default group for a given user to be dependent on those factors. (Or you might decide to whack the directories in question, and avoid that hassle... but you might need to ensure that the directories stay whacked & new ones get created properly.) My default approach tends to be to make the passwd entries reflect broad categories, such as "real people" vs. "automated processes" (and the latter are fairly often subdivided, since they're rather easier to control). I'll then use the groups file/NIS map to assign membership to folks as appropriate. I'm having a little difficulty coming up with an explanation of why I think that way makes sense; I hope it's merely an artifact of the cold I'm getting over (nothing between the ears works quite right (yet?)), rather than something rather more dire. :-{ Cheers, david -- David Wolfskill dhw@whistle.com UNIX System Administrator voice: (650) 577-7158 pager: (888) 347-0197 FAX: (650) 372-5915 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-isp Thu Dec 23 12:46: 0 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-isp@freebsd.org Received: from phoenix.volant.org (phoenix.volant.org [205.179.79.193]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A818815747 for ; Thu, 23 Dec 1999 12:45:56 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from patl@phoenix.volant.org) Received: from asimov.phoenix.volant.org ([205.179.79.65]) by phoenix.volant.org with esmtp (Exim 1.92 #8) for freebsd-isp@freebsd.org id 121F7U-0007CK-00; Thu, 23 Dec 1999 12:45:56 -0800 Received: from localhost (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by asimov.phoenix.volant.org (8.9.1b+Sun/8.9.1) with SMTP id MAA24593 for ; Thu, 23 Dec 1999 12:45:54 -0800 (PST) Date: Thu, 23 Dec 1999 12:45:54 -0800 (PST) From: patl@phoenix.volant.org Reply-To: patl@phoenix.volant.org Subject: Virtual hosts: IP aliases on de0 or lo0 ?

I've concluded that such files should be non-world readable. So all of my virtual websites are chown : so that the user owns everything, but the webserver can access the files. In general, most files will be either 640 or 750 as necessary. I've tested this out and it seems to work fine. The only outstanding issue is the education of shell users that files should not be world readable. But users being users (not to mention some admins), I think a script to search for world readable files within the web server file space is a good idea. It would run daily and report on such files. I've been given such a script but haven't tried it out yet. -- Dan Langille - DVL Software Limited [I'm looking for more work] The FreeBSD Diary - http://www.freebsddiary.org/freebsd/ NZ FreeBSD User Group - http://www.nzfug.nz.freebsd.org/ The Racing System - http://www.racingsystem.com/racingsystem.htm unix @ home - http://www.unixathome.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-isp Fri Dec 24 22:51:15 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-isp@freebsd.org Received: from blackbird.lonetree.com (blackbird.lonetree.com [207.141.55.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E20DB151F3 for ; Fri, 24 Dec 1999 22:51:13 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from wolfman@csocs.com) Received: from csocs.com [209.64.46.23] by blackbird.lonetree.com with ESMTP (SMTPD32-5.05) id A94469101B0; Fri, 24 Dec 1999 23:50:44 -0700 Message-ID: <38646A61.C5F5A4C5@csocs.com> Date: Fri, 24 Dec 1999 23:55:29 -0700 From: "J.C.

What it looks like to me is that during installation you chose option 2 (apache) instead of option 3 (apache-fp). Apache-fp doesn't need these aliases because all executables are stored in one main directory and requests are dealt with by mod_frontpage case by case and sent to the right place. If you install the extensions without mod_frontpage then those aliases must be there to direct the requests (POST, GET, etc) to your private FP directories in each virtual web. (very insecure also and uses a lot more space if you have a lot of FP customers each with their own executables.) Try using fpsrvadm without the -t option if you know you have installed it correctly. It will revert to the way you installed it without modifications in that case. My guess is that fpsrvadm is confused with the -t option. I run the same version and have no problem with that. Also, try running fpsrvadm without any options once. It will give you a list of options and walk you through the process. Hope this helps. J.C.

If you don't allow shell access to > your web server, this isn't an issue, but if you do, please read on. I've spent a lot of time on the phone with Microsoft and on their pages. The recommend and I tend to agree with them that if you run the patched apache (apache-fp) that allowing users to ftp and have shell access is fine and will not cause any damage. mod_frontpage has extra security precautions and since in that version the executables aren't in the user's web, it can be restored with one command if anything does happen to those files. However, if you are running the non-patched version of Apache and using FP extensions, executables can be deleted. It is recommended that users have no shell access or ftp access in this case. The only directories for Frontpage webs that should be tightly secured are those such as your root web and top of your user directory and that is to insure other shell customers can not gain access to the same. > In particular, service.pwd contains an encrypted password, which if > obtained could passed to a cracker program. The Fpsrvadm utility can be used to automatically chown and chmod existing content files in a FrontPage-extended web to be owned by a given user. Automatic chown and chmod can be performed when you install the server extensions (using fpsrvadm -operation install) or later (using fpsrvadm -operation chown). These operations set the content to be owned by the user, and they set the FrontPage Server Extensions stub executable files to be SUID. > I've tested this out and it seems to work fine.

The patch to the Apache Web server intercepts each call that the FrontPage client makes to the server extensions executable files. It then performs security checks, sets user ID to the owner of the Web site (thus requiring SUID/SGID operation of the server extensions and the web content), and invokes a centralized copy of the server extensions executable files. Frontpage relies on certain file permissions to maintain security over those files. Once you install FP you are not in UNIX world anymore. File permissions do not have a lot of effect since Frontpage is being run by the server, and it's Frontpage along with Apache that's servicing requests. There is a script in the /usr/local/frontpage/version* directory called set_default_perms.sh which will restore the necessary permissions on files to insure Frontpage can read/control them without allowing others to do the same. Anytime you suspect your FP file permissions have been changed you need to run this script. You need to make sure that Frontpage security is dealt with first. When using the patched version, mod_frontpage will not allow visitors to gain access to those important files such as your encrypted services.pwd as long as Frontpage security has been dealt with. The main thing to remember is to make sure you have your AllowOverride set correctly in your httpd.conf so that your .htaccess files are read by the web server. .htaccess files are the key using FP, not file permissions anymore. Also, do not allow your customers to use the same password for their shells as they do for FP. FP has proven to be insecure if not run correctly and there are many many exploits. A malicious person will no doubt try to gain entry into your system trying passwords they may have discovered from a customers FP password files. You can also allow access to Frontpage by IPs for each web. Along with everything above setting IP access restrictions with FPsrvadm is your best bet. Hope this helps, J.C.

Ds 0:08.06 nntpcached: waiting for connections (nntpcached) Any ideas how to kill this? The man page for ps says this for the 'D' state: D Marks a process in disk (or other short term, uninter- ruptible) wait. It's been stuck in this "short term" state for at least 12 hours. kill -HUP, -TERM, -9 etc does not work, presumably because it's uninterruptable. Note that it still accepts inbound connections, presumably a function of the kernel (since it has an open listen socket?) but after connect it's effectively dead. Last time this problem happened I ended up rebooting the machine because everything I tried (including swearing and hitting the keyboard) could NOT remove this task, rendering this reasonably important service unusable, so I'd like to know if there's a better way. :-) If a reboot is the only option, then I sure hope it's not going to keep happening... is there any way I can debug this to work out why it's freezing? Could it be signifying a hardware problem? (Other processes on the machine, including a heavily used Squid with lots of disk access, work fine). The application was compiled about 5 months ago and has only played up like this once before, just over a week ago - before that it was working flawlessly. :-( Thanks...
