rsync over ssh stalls after completing the job
by Frank Cox 15 Apr '21

15 Apr '21

Here's a weird one. I have two Centos 8 machines that use rsync-over-ssh to back up files between each other. (Each machine acts as a backup machine for the other one.) There's are nightly cronjobs that do the backing up, the commands look like this: rsync -av --delete /home/mydirectory jeff:/home/mydirectorybackup That command works fine when it's run through the cronjob. When I try to run a rsync command between mutt and jeff from the commandline, that's where the problem starts. It worked a few days ago but now when I log into jeff and do a rsync to or from mutt it works fine. When I log into mutt and do a rsync to or from jeff it works and does the job, but then it seems to stall afterward and I have to hit ctrl-c to get my cursor back. Here's a test run so you can see what happens. [me@mutt temp]$ rsync -avv ../temp/ jeff:temp opening connection using: ssh jeff rsync --server -vvlogDtpre.iLsfxC . temp (7 args) sending incremental file list delta-transmission enabled bookmarks.html is uptodate ./ abc total: matches=0 hash_hits=0 false_alarms=0 data=26321 ^Crsync error: received SIGINT, SIGTERM, or SIGHUP (code 20) at rsync.c(644) [sender=3.1.3] A file named bookmarks.html existed in both directories so it wasn't changed, and a new file abc was copied to the backup directory. Then my ctrl-c stopped the job and brought the cursor back after it stalled. scp works fine to copy files either way when logged into either machine and, again, my backup-this-to-that cronjobs that run rsync seem to be working fine as well. I just discovered this last night when I went to rsync some files manually between these machines. The last time I did that was at least a few days ago and it worked fine then. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com

I'm reading a story linked to from slashdot, and I see FreeBSD is vulnerable. Has anyone looked at CentOS? mark

Missing /etc/ld.so.conf.d/kernel-3.10.0-1127.19.1.el7.x86_64.conf
by Kenneth Porter 14 Apr '21

14 Apr '21

I'm yum updating some CentOS 7 systems today and got this error. Two systems (so far) seem to have rebooted fine. Should I worry? error: file /etc/ld.so.conf.d/kernel-3.10.0-1127.19.1.el7.x86_64.conf: No such file or directory

Re: [CentOS] Proxmox Backup Server equivalent for the RHEL/CentOS world ?
by Blaž Bogataj 14 Apr '21

14 Apr '21

Hello As I said a couple of weeks ago in response to Niki I have been using ProxMox almost from the beginning ;). No "enterprise" version. And backup is one of the reasons for that. NFS on NAS as a backup target is really nice, even one time quicker than backup to local storage (NAS with 10gb FC). Also fiddling with RHV. But there is no "free" backup solution. I am trying with Bacchus but no way to schedule backup. Single backup OK, schedule backup no go. So now use vProtect, for 5 years not a lot of $. But I hope to find some instructions on how to build Prox and use it as software defined storage. I must learn how to build this, especially about a separated management network, without I think I can't build this to get HA. And them migrate from RHV. All the best Blaz

What to do when a selinux policy doesn't work?
by hw 14 Apr '21

14 Apr '21

Hi, I'm getting log file entries about ejabberd not being able to remove files that were uploaded by client through the file upload facility of XMPP. With the help of audit2allow, I have already created and installed some selinux modules to solve such issues, and still files can't be expired. So I used grep '/srv/data/ejabberd' /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -w to find out what might cause this, and the answer is: type=AVC msg=audit(1606302910.314:2905): avc: denied { open } for pid=18687 comm="8_dirty_io_sche" path="/srv/data/ejabberd/[...]" dev="md100" ino=166 scontext=system_u:system_r:ejabberd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:var_t:s0 tclass=file permissive=1 Was caused by: Unknown - would be allowed by active policy Possible mismatch between this policy and the one under which the audit message was generated. Possible mismatch between current in-memory boolean settings vs. permanent ones. I have reloaded the policies with 'semodule -R', and that didn't change anything. The files in question seem to have the correct attributes like: ls -laZ /srv/data/ejabberd/[...] -rw-r--r--. 1 ejabberd ejabberd system_u:object_r:var_t:s0 1384362 Nov 25 12:15 /srv/data/ejabberd/[...] Ejabberd is supposed to expire files when they are older than desired, and selinux prevents it. How can I solve this problem other than by disabling selinux or by deleting the files manually?

How to find out what's eating the bandwidth
by Frank Cox 14 Apr '21

14 Apr '21

Is there a program that will tell me what's eating the bandwidth on a lan? I'm thinking of something that would tell me that a.b.c.d is using so many mbps and a.b.c.e is using this many and so on. Or can just-another-computer-on-the-network actually see that sort of information? I don't know enough about the low level nuts and bolts of networking to know if it has that kind of access. I'm really just interested in volume of traffic per attached device rather than specific origin/destination information if that's easier to obtain. This way if something is eating the network I can find out what it is without having to start unplugging cables and so on to find out when it stops. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com

How to organize your VMs
by Nicolas Kovacs 13 Apr '21

13 Apr '21

Hi, Up until now my main production server has been a "bare metal" installation of CentOS 7.9 hosting a variety of stuff. * DNS server with BIND for eight domains * IMAP mail server with Postfix and Dovecot for these domains, with about two dozen mail accounts * Webmail with Roundcube for all the mail accounts * Various WordPress-based websites and blogs * Several instances of the management software Dolibarr * The learning platform GEPI for our local school * One instance of OwnCloud for half a dozen users The hardware has no problems to deal with all that performance-wise. But managing all this in one big bulk has become a bit of a problem, since the LAMP-based PHP applications (WordPress, Dolibarr, GEPI, OwnCloud) increasingly cultivate their idiosyncrasies, so this feels more and more like herding cats. My main goal in migrating all this stuff preogressively to a series of neat VMs hosted on a KVM hypervisor is clarity and ease of maintenance. Now I wonder what could be a smart subdivision of all these VMs. After a bit of brainstorming, here's what I can come up with. 1. It would make sense to regroup all the applications, e. g. one VM for all the Dolibarr hostings, and then a different VM for WordPress, and a third VM for OwnCloud. 2. It's tempting to have a lot of small VMs for clarity's sake. On the other hand, it's maybe better to have one single VM for all the mail stuff. 3. Should I put all the Roundcube instances in a separate VM? Or does that go with the Postfix/Dovecot mail VM? 4. DNS is a bit of a special case, a bit of a catch 22. I would be tempted to setup an extra (bare-metal) machine for just handling this. Since BIND provides the DNS information about the hypervisor and the backup server themselves this becomes a bit of a chicken-and-egg situation. 5. Even if it's tempting to multiply VMs, let's not forget that I have to keep an eye on hardware resources, not to forget I have to pay for every extra IPv4 address. I'd be curious to have your input, since I'm fairly new to this sort of approach.

Resize a VM: any risk involved ?
by Nicolas Kovacs 11 Apr '21

11 Apr '21

Hi, I'm currently fiddling with KVM, Proxmox and various VMs. I setup a very basic VM with a manual (fdisk) partitioning scheme: one /boot partition, one swap partition, and one root partition, the latter being the last partition and thus expandable). I'm starting with a reduced disk size (6 GB in total) and a minimal installation. The idea behind this approach is that I can clone this minimal VM and then eventually expand it to fit my needs. Here's how I expand the available disk size. First I increase the virtual disk in the hypervisor. Then I fire up the VM and do the following: # yum install cloud-utils-growpart # lsblk # growpart -v /dev/sda 3 # resize2fs /dev/sda3 Now here's my question (finally): is there any risk involved in this sort of operation? Or can it be performed on a production system without having to worry about data loss?
