At my physics lab we have 30 servers with 1TB disk packs. I am in need of monitoring for disk failures. I have been reading about SMART and it seems it can help. However, I am not sure what to look for if a drive is about to fail. Any thoughts about this? Is anyone using this method to predetermine disk failures? TIA

Iptables masq traffic limiting
by Joseph L. Casale 01 Sep '08

01 Sep '08

Where is the correct place to control what traffic is masq'ed out? This is what I have, but I was told the Forward chain isn't the right place to do this? iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -o $WAN -j MASQUERADE iptables -A FORWARD -i $WAN -o $LAN -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT iptables -A FORWARD -i $LAN -o $WAN -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED,RELATED -p tcp -m multiport --dports 80,443 -j ACCEPT So which table is the theoretically correct place to add all the ports/services I would want masq'ed out for internal clients? Thanks! jlc

strange httpd error page using apache
by Ric Moore 01 Sep '08

01 Sep '08

I get this error page re-direct while opening a local webpage on my server, which carries me to yahoo for the error page filled with adverts. I'd really like to know how this one got here, as I just installed centOS a few weeks ago. http://wwwwh.found-not-help.com/search?qo=www.wayward4now.net&rn=3D9F6PY8wd… This just doesn't strike me as Kosher. And, I'm a southern baptist! <grins> Ric

rc.local

I note that there are two 'rc.local' files. One is in /etc and the other in /etc/rc.d Which has precedence and is the one to use? Thanks, Ric
