Allocating 64 kbits/s out of 256 kbits/s for one LAN behind firewall
by Indunil Jayasooriya 08 Aug '07

08 Aug '07

Hi, I have a CENTOS BOX as a firewall . both iptabes and iproute 2 are running on it. pls see bleow for installed RPMs. [root@firebox ~]# rpm -qa |grep iptables iptables-1.2.11-3.1.RHEL4 [root@firebox ~]# rpm -qa |grep iproute iproute-2.6.9-3.EL4.7 It has 3 ethernet cards. pls see below. eth0 - internet ip (pls asume. 1.2.3.4/29 ). it connects to ISP router. eth1 - 192.168.100.254 eth2 - 192.168.101.254 There are 2 LANs behind this firewall. both LANs have access to internet due to SNAT rules in the firewall. I have given many SNAT rules per ip basic. some users have full access, some have only web and smtp. I have added many forward rules to suit those SNAT rules. All work fine. one LAN is 192.168.100.0/24, while the other LAN is 192.168.101.0/24 Now, I want LAN with 192.168.101.0/24 to allocate 64 kbit out of 256 kbit. the rest for others. I added rules to the firewall. But I still can not allocate 64 kbit for LAN with 192.168.101.0/24 I think I need a PREROUTING chain for LAN with 192.168.101.0/24 Script is given below. INTERFAZ_INT=eth0 FULLBANDWIDTH=256 BANDWIDTH4LAN=64 iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -s 192.168.101.0/24<http://192.168.102.0/24>-j MARK --set-mark 0x5 tc qdisc add dev $INTERFAZ_INT root handle 1 htb r2q 4 tc class add dev $INTERFAZ_INT parent 1: classid 1:2 htb rate "$FULLBANDWIDTH"Kbit tc class add dev $INTERFAZ_INT parent 1: classid 1:5 htb rate "$BANDWIDTH4LAN"Kbit tc qdisc add dev $INTERFAZ_INT parent 1:5 handle 5 sfq perturb 10 tc filter add dev $INTERFAZ_INT protocol ip parent 1: pref 1 handle 5 fw classid 1:5 Still no luck. after applying the obove rules, I downloaded an centos ISO image. But , I still can download @ the usual rate. ( i.e 30-33 kbytes per seconds). If these rules work, I will be able to download @ about 8 kbyes per second. (i.e - 8*8 kbit= 64 kbit) That is what I expect ? Where have I gone wrong? -- Thank you Indunil Jayasooriya

CentOS5 pam_mkhomedir
by Peter Huber 08 Aug '07

08 Aug '07

I have a problem creating homedirs on the fly. Since RHEL5 / CentOS5 you have to use pam_oddjob_mkhomedir instead of pam_mkhomedir. Everything is working (the homedir is created) but two things. First on every logon I get the following error message, and I don't know how to fix it: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name com.redhat.oddjob was not provided by any .service files Second: The permissions of the new created homedir is wrong. It should be 700 but it is 755. Can anybody tell me, how to fix these two problems? Thanks Peter

Virtualisation of Netware?
by Nigel Kendrick 08 Aug '07

08 Aug '07

Hi, I am hoping someone can kick me up the learning curve (!) on Virtualization: We have an old piece of data logging software that was written in Turbo Pascal 6 using a file I/O module tuned to Netware and so it expects its data files to be on a Netware server and will not access them locally or via an MS/Samba share - essentially, it uses direct NCP calls for parts of its data access. The logging software was replaced two years ago, but we need occasional access to the data for a minimum of 6 years and so I wondered whether I could virtualize a Netware 3.x/4.x/5.x or 6./x server under Linux (or Win..er..you know..). I have found some articles on Netware 6.5 virtualization but would really appreciate input from anyone actually doing this already - otherwise I'll just have to keep the existing Netware server in the computer room to be fired up about 3-4 times a year 'on demand'. For info, I'm running a Netware 6.5 1-user 'demo' licence - the original install was on Netware 3.12 until the server died and no-one could find the original Netware floppies! Thanks Nigel Kendrick

startup config scripts for CentOS
by Rogelio Bastardo 08 Aug '07

08 Aug '07

On CentOS-based VM appliance I'm building, I would like to create a script that runs upon login that asks the user a series of questions that does (among other things) ask them to input their networking information (IP, mask, gate, DNS, etc). I'm hoping you guys might point me in the right direction. Here are some of the specific things I'm looking to accomplish with such a script. (1) Where might I look to for creating these types of scripts (e.g. I'm assuming Bash is the way to go here?) (2) Are there any templates out there that I might use as a starting place? (3) Once I write something, where/how do I call it in /etc/rc.d/ (4) And once it starts, what is the best way to make sure that it doesn't run again upon the second (and subsequent) reboots? Ideally, someone could show me a model of something like this that's already done, and I could just mod that. Otherwise, I'll grind through something manually, if I so have to....

"near native" performance with xen?
by Johnn Tan 07 Aug '07

07 Aug '07

Just wondering if there was a howto or other URL that explains what is needed to achieve "near native" performance on a xen domU -- for this purpose, I am thinking about a single domU running on a physical server, in comparison to that same physical server running the same kernel but non-xenified. For instance, using a physical partition for VBD v. using a file-backed one is one of the more obvious ones. Assigning all the VCPUs. And as much RAM as you can get away with (maybe leaving the dom0 with 512MB). But are there others? Since I'm doing paravirtualization, I assume I don't need to turn on VT in the BIOS? What about 32-bit v. 64-bit OS, for the dom0 and for the domU? (I'll be using CentOS-5.) Anything else? johnn

Yum install preferred arch only
by Ross S. W. Walker 07 Aug '07

07 Aug '07

I have a couple 64-bit CentOS 5 installations here and was wondering if there was a yum option to have it install only x86_64 arch by default if no arch is specified. I tired of having to append .x86_64 on all package names I only want the x86_64 versions of, if I want the i386 versions too I would add the .i386 package to the list... Thanks All, Ross S. W.

I did the same (changed the speed in the BIOS settings) and it's working. I tried it at 80 but I think I'm going to bump it to 160 and see if it works. I still wish I could figure out why the adaptec kernel driver won't install though. Maybe I'll try downloading the source and manually compiling the kernel module.

CENTOS 4 and mono
by Jaime Ventura 07 Aug '07

07 Aug '07

Hello, Im trying to configure my centos machine to run webservices. Im using the mono repo from www.*mono*-project.com, for rhel-4. After configuring every thing, it all seemed to work fine with a simple webservice for testing purposes. For that, a friendo of mine created a vb webservice on a windows machine and I copied the all resulting files(asmx, dll, etc). When I access the webservice via GET, every thing works just fine. But when I do a POST, the mod-mono-server2.exe goes away :( Does anyone can help me to debug the problem? The apache logs doesnt help much. Thanks
