Re: [CentOS] network disconnection after several hours
by Thomas Poty 29 May '20

29 May '20

I will check with firewall-cmd. Regarding hardware problem I have doubt as we use VMWare (but I keep in a corner of my mind).At this moment, we have compiled kernel and have installed it and have tried 4 restore passed.We need to do more tests and understand why 4 restores passed.

Besides that, one of the first things I'd try is changing out the network card, replace the network cable and use a different port on the switch. Keep in mind that two machines are involved. Even stupid network cables can "switch" between working and non-working for no reason at all like you wouldn't believe ... until you plug them into a PoE switch by mistake after which they suddenly no longer work at all.

Recover from an fsck failure
by James B. Byrne 28 May '20

28 May '20

This is CentOS-6x. I have cloned the HDD of a CentOS-6 system. I booted a host with that drive and received the following error: checking filesystems /dev/mapper/vg_voinet01-lv_root: clean, 128491/4096000 files, 1554114/16304000 blocks /dev/sda1: clean, 47/120016 files, 80115/512000 blocks /dev/mapper/vg_voinet01-lv_home: clean, 7429/204800 files, 90039/819200 blocks /dev/mapper/vg_voinet01-LogVol04: clean, 770219/20480000 files, 34881086/8102000 blocks fsck.ext4: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/mapper/vg_voinet01-lv_log /dev/mapper/vg_voinet01-lv_log The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock: e2fsk -b 8193 <device> /dev/mapper/vg_voinet-lv_spool: clean, 372/614400 files, 171186/2457600 blocks *** An error occurred during the file system check. *** Dropping you to a shell; the system will reboot *** when you leave the shell.

xinetd custom service - perl - remote address
by Gary Stainburn 28 May '20

28 May '20

Hi all, I can't believe that I can't find the answer to this one. I have a perl script which is called by xinetd. I want that perl script to be able to detect the remote IP address of the caller. I presumed that it would be an environment variable but I could be wrong. I've found reference to the ENV and PASSENV arguments for xinetd.conf but no examples, and no indication of what auguments to use. In my script I have the following code: foreach (keys %ENV) { print "$_=$ENV{$_}\n";} but the only line I get back is: XINETD_LANG=en_US

IPv6 inbound routing
by Kenneth Porter 26 May '20

26 May '20

I see my ISP's gateway sending me neighbor solicitations to my external WAN interface for LAN clients on my internal LAN interface. How do I get the box to tell the ISP gateway that my box will route those addresses? I've been assigned a /56 and I'm using a /63 for the DMZ and a /64 for the LAN. The outbound packets seem to reach the destination server but nothing comes back. I'm assuming it's because the ISP router doesn't know to give my box the packets for the LAN clients. I'm using "tcpdump icmp6 -i em2" to watch the exchange. (For outbound routing, I have radvd configured to send router announcements to the LAN, and that seems to work, based on the packets I recieve from the LAN and from watching it with Wireshark on a Win10 client.)

Re: [CentOS] ip6tables equivalent for NAT?
by John Pierce 26 May '20

26 May '20

with ipv6, you just allow the specific ports destined to the specific local machine(s) in on your WAN side, they don't need translating. same sort of rule as if you had a internet-facing service running on the routing system On Tue, May 26, 2020 at 11:55 AM Kenneth Porter <shiva(a)sewingwitch.com> wrote: > I finally got an ISP connection with working IPv6 and now I need to add > firewall rules for forwarding connections from my LAN to the WAN.

ip6tables equivalent for NAT?
by Kenneth Porter 26 May '20

26 May '20

I finally got an ISP connection with working IPv6 and now I need to add firewall rules for forwarding connections from my LAN to the WAN. I'm using firewalld to handle the high-level description that gets translated to iptables/ip6tables on CentOS 7. Of course, with IPv6, one doesn't do NAT, so the usual masquerade target doesn't make sense. But I want similar connection logic, with no inbound connections allowed to LAN clients and all outbound connections allowed. How does one express this in either firewalld or its ip6tables "direct rules"? I don't currently need port-forwarding to internal servers but, for completeness, what would such rules look like?

network disconnection after several hours
by Thomas Poty 26 May '20

26 May '20

Hello, Here is the context during the problem occurs : We have a new machine running on centos 8.From this machine, we restore a postgresql dump on an other machine runnning on centos 7.After several hoursof running, restore fails due to a disconnection (no route to host).But, if we disable the firewall on centos 8, restore succeed. Before having this new centos 8 machine, we had a centos 7 machine and all worked fine with firewall activated. Has anyboby an ideas, clues or something else? Thanks, Thomas Poty

Thunderbird Revision Issues
by Mark LaPierre 25 May '20

25 May '20

Hey all, CentOS 6 has Thunderbird 68.8.0 CentOS 8 has Thunderbird 68.7.0 When I rsync my .thunderbird folder from my CentOS 6 machine to my CentOS 8 machine and start Thunderbird it says: "A newer version of Thunderbird may have made changes to your profile which are no longer compatible with this older version. Use this profile only with that newer version, or create a new profile for this installation of Thunderbird. Creating a new profile requires setting up your accounts, calendars and add-ons again." Needless to say, this is not an acceptable choice. I have several email accounts that would have to be set up. That's not such a big issue, but I have many local folders set up that I can't duplicate on the new installation if I can't use my previous profile. Does anyone know when CentOS 8 will catch up with CentOS 6 so that I can start using my new CentOS 8 box? Perhaps there is another work around. I've tried many of the solution provided on the mozilla web site to no avail. I even tried to install Thunderbird 68.8.0 on my CentOS 8 box. That didn't make it happy either.

mkfs.fat Device or resource busy
by Michael Hennebry 25 May '20

25 May '20

I'm trying to format a 16 GB SD card to FAT32. Either it won't find the device or it gives me the titular error message. mkfs.fat /dev/sdc I have tried "ejecting" the drive and reinserting the card. I have tried inserting another card, checking to insure that I could see its file, ejecting that card and inserting the target card. If I do not umount it, busy, if I don't, not found. What is the incantation for formatting an SD card. BTW I am using Centos 7 and a USB adapter. -- Michael hennebry(a)web.cs.ndsu.NoDak.edu "Sorry but your password must contain an uppercase letter, a number, a haiku, a gang sign, a heiroglyph, and the blood of a virgin." -- someeecards
