Marta, As Alan pointed out the loc->net policy is Continue, it should probably be loc->net ACCEPT. This is from Tom''s Shorewall Documentation... http://www.shorewall.net/Documentation.htm#Policy CONTINUE - The connection is neither ACCEPTed, DROPped nor REJECTed. CONTINUE may be used when one or both of the zones named in the entry are sub-zones of or intersect with another zone.

Using RPMs for el4 (0.22.3). Been trying to get templates to work, but have found problems. I created a very small template, and this works well, variables substitute, great. I tried a much larger one (an httpd.conf), and puppetmaster crashed. the remote puppetd first reported an SSL certificate problem, then on seconds run, "cannot connect to server." Hacked the template down to

Trying to learn Puppet, given a cfengine background. Am trying to understand the Puppet way of accomplishing the following: I have a lot of servers, that are organized into clusters (we call them silos). Each silo has a specific set of parameters (like IP addresses). I''d like to organize the silo information in some way that each server is associated with that information, and can

Having had a working version of Acrobat Reader, I upgraded to 7.0.5 a couple of days ago (without backing up the previous install, of course). Unfortunately, the acroread command fails with: GTK+ UI Toolkit libraries, ver. 2.4 or greater were not found. The (CentOS 3) standard libraries for gtk+ etc. are installed. Anyone know what is the most recent compatible version of Acrobat Reader for

My repojanitor updates broke this morning due to problems at at least a couple of mirror sites: ftp://mirror.stanford.edu/pub/mirrors/centos/4/updates/x86_64/RPMS/ ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/4/updates/x86_64/RPMS Appears the squirrelmail and openoffice updates there are some sort of symlink rather than plain files.

Looking at Puppet for a new installation. Wondering about the following capability: Say I have a reference to some definition, where I call out a relationship: silo( webservers => "server1", databaseservers => "server2" ); (sorry if syntax is incorrect). Is it possible for the definition of this to trigger "server1" to be in a "webservers"

Is there a way to default "top" to Solaris mode for all users (without using a .toprc in every user's home dir)? We're not big fans of >100% CPU usage stats... Thanks. -- Alan Sparks, UNIX/Linux Systems Integration and Administration <asparks at doublesparks.net>

I've been running a lot of apps with Sun's 1.5.0_03 JVM on CentOS 3.6. After the latest kernel update 2.4.21-37.0.1.ELsmp is seems I'm starting to get hangs. Just like I used to a year ago on an earlier kernel release. It looks like the infamous futex bug: strace -p 22406 Process 22406 attached - interrupt to quit futex(0x821be34, FUTEX_WAIT, 15, NULL <unfinished ...> Anyone

(Apologies if this is a FAQ, but have not found anything on it.) I am trying to detect when files are uploaded to an rsync module, and process those files on arrival. It appears that the post-transfer action facility will not provide the file name uploaded, so that seems unpromising. I have been experimenting with the transfer log facility, and while that can provide the module path, and the

Been having this problem, and posted about it before. Thinking it was a memory issue, I've replaced all memory on the server. However, the problem has continued. Server is a Proliant DL380 (8GB RAM, 2 Xeon CPU), running CentOS 3.6, all patches up-to-date. Kernel is 2.4.21-40.ELsmp (problem seems to have first manifested on kernel 2.4.21-37.0.1.ELsmp). Disk is CCISS hardware RAID-5,

Memory could be an issue. The three nodes in the cluster we are using only have 512 MB. The machines are otherwise identical in terms of hardware. They are dual PIIIs (purchased from Penguin Computing in 2001). (If you need specs on motherboard etc, we can get that info together.) The installed operating system is RHEL-3, standard workstation with some additional libraries (e.g., all of the

It's generally said that OM needs lots more swap than plain Linux. There has to be someplace to juggle processes around. We use 4 GB nodes with something like 12 GB swap; that plus round-robin logins to distribute home nodes seemed to solve a lot of our problems. To use oMFS to allow processes to write from the node they've migrated to you also need DFSA enabled. That sounds like a great

Hi there, We're currently attempting to explain a slowdown of an LVQ-type parallel analysis we're working on. We are benchmarking our analysis running over openMosix against the same running via SNOW for R. Both perform similarly on small datasets, but on large datasets SNOW drastically outperforms openMosix. However, these results are achieve running SNOW on the default RedHat

Hi there, We're attempting to run an LVQ analysis over a cluster of machines via R and openMosix. R spawns several child processes simply by writing commands to several files and using system() to start a slave process. The processes migrate perfectly, and often finish with no reported errors, writing their results into respective files for the parent process to piece together.

Apologies if this is the wrong place to post this question. In that event, please point me in the right direction. My question is whether or not I can use Xen with OpenMosix. The upshot of what I''m attempting to do is this: 1. Build a two to four node cluster using OpenMosix for "raw horsepower" 2. Use Xen on the OpenMosix cluster to divide the "raw horsepower" any
