Guys I''m looking for some advice on the following situation: We''re serving a residential complex with internet, the network has grown and with it has the problems, below is a descriptive layout of our current setup: Connection: ADSL Down/Up speed: 512kbps/256kbps (1024kbps/256kbps in the near future) 2.0GHz Celeron D with 512MB RAM Current users: 140 Maximum amount of users:

Hi, more than a month ago I proposed an addition to the HOWTO to address a certain packet classification problem/bug and how to fix it (see http://mailman.ds9a.nl/pipermail/lartc/2005q3/016728.html). I never received any reaction from the HOWTO maintainers, not even when addressing them directly (see mail below). Given that a month has gone by: Is the HOWTO currently unmaintained? Regards,

Guys Considering the festive season is upon us, thanks to everyone contributing to the list and helping all the readers with your great input! I don''t want to mention names, I''ll most certainly leave someone out. With this mail I''d like to test some theory on bandwidth management, with my own successes and failures during the past year. Sharing a link between 200

I just did a yum update and one of the packages updated was dovecot. I've been using this for imap/pop3 for quite a while. Now, however, I get an error when trying to login under any account. It gives "bad user or password" errors for every user. The user can ssh in just fine and run mutt or pine. But trying to get in with evolution, or even squirrelmail, just gives me an

Fellow list members, I recently tried to add a user to a little used server that hadn't see a change in users for quite a while. When I use system-config-users I get an error alert that says - The user database cannot be read. This problem is most likely caused by a mismatch in /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow. The program will exit now. I awk'ed out the user ID's and ran diff.

Guys After reading through the archives I found some insightful ways to be able to shape traffic to pppoe clients from the server. I have two questions on the topic of setting up a pppoe server however... 1. The clients will all be connected to each other using a normal ethernet network, the segments connected with managed switches. The capacity is roughly 500 nodes. Will these pppoe sessions

Howdy all Apologies to the folks subscribed to the globalize list for dual posting this message... I''ve got a project running globalize and rails 1.1.4, and I''ve only recently adopted a strong love for testing. Now my models are 100% tested (I must note that I do not make use of any translations in the database yet), and I''ve now started with functional tests before

Guys Reading through my lartc mail, and thinking on how to tackle my next shaping solution, gave me an idea. I''d like to propose this idea for scrutiny and if it sounds viable I''ll definitely need to start developing in due time. For me in my day to day work with developing network application specifically geared for middle-tier ISP''s, and reading on other peoples

Good day/night/whatever fellow techies, I've come to a small problem managing mysql on CentOS 4.7 box[1]. When I have done things on mysql on my desktop systems it was always just for personal use so I would be lazy and put everything under the "test" db so I didn't have to deal with all that security. But I find that I need to put some db's on the "production"

Guys All the recent discussions recently, and the knowledge of a 2.6 port, of WRR has made me very keen on trying it. I had a look at the docs and examples know but my mind is not in a very receptive state. Take this simple example. Incoming internet connection of 1mbps. Shared between up to 25 users simultaneously. I know that WRR can fairly distribute the traffic amongst the currently

Hi all Is the EventMachine website (www.rubyeventmachine.com) down? I can''t access it from South Africa, and have tried using tor as well with no luck. I''m kinda new to EventMachine, so I first have a lot of examples to work through and reading to do before I start pestering the mailing list with questions. Thanks to everyone who partook in creating the library, so far

Hi everyone Been spending the whole day on the wiki and in the list archives on using dovecot for POP3 mail. I'd like to present my findings and ask for some feedback. Our current software setup: * Courier-IMAP running POP3/IMAP * Postfix MTA * MySQL backend for user and login info As for the system layout, it looks like this: * NFS server which is the same server that houses single

Hi! I am making some tests here, and i wanna miror all the traffic going to a ip from one interface to another ip. example: all packets going to 64.223.167.100 should be transmitted by ppp0 to internet and by eth2 to the adress 192.168.1.100. Someone know how can i do it using iptables or ip route/ip rule? Tks in advance! Fernando Favero _______________________________________________ LARTC

Hi guys: I saw the pelthora of threads where people had trouble moving to 4.4. So I'm chicken now and I was trying to wait for the dust to settle, I suppose it has and its been long enough I'm nervous about not upgrading. I need to do a a production server that is located in a data center far away so even more than normal I want a smooth upgrade. Can someone tell the what the

netfilter and lartc members I just thought it''s time I contribute. I created this little script to help me while setting up iptables rules for firewalling, shaping or both.

Guys Given the replies and interests lately on the WRR scheduler, and the shameless promotion of Route Hat (only kidding), my question is simple. Is there an alternative for the 2.6.x kernels? >From what I gather WRR is only available for the 2.4 kernels... Regards -- Kenneth Kalmer kenneth.kalmer@gmail.com http://opensourcery.blogspot.com

List Out of interest, I use transparent squid proxies for caching websites, and I shape the clients that browse the net, this all works perfectly so no questions in this regard... CLIENT <--- eth0 ----> SQUID <----- ppp0 -----> NET What I just realised was that all egress traffic on eth0 gets shaped, squid gets data from ppp0 and hence is not shaped. Does this mean that squid
