So I'm exploring AUDIT and have this in /etc/security/audit_control: dir:/var/audit flags:lo,fd minfree:20 naflags:lo policy:cnt filesz:0 I tell auditd to reread the config file with audit -s but no file deletion events are logged. I change the config file to: dir:/var/audit flags:lo minfree:20 naflags:lo,fd policy:cnt filesz:0 I type audit -s and am immediately flooded with 20 kilobytes worth of...

I have a test 4.x-stable system that I recently rebooted into. The last time I had updated it was May 3rd. I cvsup'ed it, did the buildworld/installworlds, and everything seemed fine. I then thought I would update all the ports. When upgrading XFree86, the /usr partition ran out of disk space. Now the partition shows up as: (21) df -k Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity

Hello! I've seen, some people experienced this problem earlyer, but I have not found any solution in the mailing lists... So the problem is, copying files from an NT Workstation (SP5 ) on a Samba server running under Linux (2.0.10) in some (rare) cases results in files exactly of the right size but filled with NULL bytes. I'm using samba 2.0.5a and likely since version 2.0.0 this

On a rather full customer web server, I am trying to track down whose web site script is trying to make outbound network connections when they should not be. In /etc/security/audit_control, I added to the flags line dir:/var/audit flags:lo,aa,-nt minfree:5 to log failed network connection. When I try an make an outbound connection to something that is blocked in pf, it seems to sometimes work. eg. from the command line, if I manually try via telnet 8.8.8.8 25 pf shows 17:03:23.572682 rule 433/0(match): block out on em0: 64.7.x.x.17017 > 8.8....

hello everyone. i guess this has been asked before, but haven't found it in the faq. i have the following issue... it is not uncommon nowadays to have desktops with filesystems in the order of 500gb/1tb. now, my kubuntu (but other distros do the same) forces a fsck on ext3 every so often, no matter what. in the past it wasn't a big issue. but with sizes increasing so much, users are

Greetings, I've been looking for a proper way to to track down user's activity inside the shell as I'm helping my colleague to configure a web hosting and shell hosting server. Someone have referred me to this article -- http://bsdtips.utcorp.net/mediawiki/index.php/Snoop which is using 'watch' commands to view user's activity once they logged in to the server I found

Hello, I am running SAMBA 2.0.7.0 on AIX 4.3.3.0 I have a 1 Tera Byte filesystem on AIX made available to NT and MAC. There is heavy IO activity on this filesystem and all of a sudden the NT's and MAC's can't read or write any file on this shared filesystem. Also AIX is running out of memory whenever this happens and files cannot be copied onto the said filesystem even at unix

We are using MySQL, and love the idea of using zfs for this. We are used to using Direct I/O to bypass file system caching (let the DB do this). Does this exist for zfs? This message posted from opensolaris.org

...when creating a filesystem using newfs(8) or changed in an existing filesystem using tunefs(8). Both utilities use the -k held-for-metadata-blocks option to specify the amount of space to be held for metadata blocks in each cylinder group. By default, newfs(8) sets this area to half of minfree (typically 4% of the data area). As with all layout policies, it only affect layouts of things allocated after it is put in place. So these changes will primarily be noticable on newly created file systems. File system checks have been sped up by caching the cylinder group maps...

Hi all, I was intending on trying out gjournal on a new disk i've added in my desktop. I had a look to see what the most recent patch provided by Pawel and found http://people.freebsd.org/~pjd/patches/gjournal6_20061024.patch I created the directories as per Pawel's original post (http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-fs/2006-June/001962.html) and the patch succeeded with no failed

Hello, It seems that I am in printer hell once again :) I am trying to sort out some printer problems with our UNIX server. The basic problem is this. I have a test server to K.I.S.S the problem. On this server I have defined two queues which are csqlis and HPfinley. csqlis seems to work correctly and displays ready. HPfinley always reads Paused on win2k and NT40 clients. The output of the lpq
