problems with my mylex card
by Magus Ba'al 30 May '01

30 May '01

I'm running into a problem with my Mylex 1100 scsi raid controller. I have SuSE 7.0 Pro installed. The problem I ran into earlier today was an error running modprobe. It would spit back an error: modprobe DAC960 modprobe: line 5: Invalid dependency /* For struct iovec */ This happened for all modules during boot, which was a giant pain to manually load the driver using insmod, then restart some services. I found a workaround: insmod DAC960 Using /lib/modules/2.2.16/block/DAC960.o But I couldn't use the mylex card, all other cards seemed to work just fine. The mylex card worked fine until I rebooted. I fixed this problem by upgrading to the 2.2.19 kernel, with all the updates needed to upgrade the kernel (libc, libd, nssv1, shlibs) and now I don't have any problems running modprobe. What I'm running into now is I can't get the system to mount the arrays. modprobe DAC960 mount /dev/rd/c0d0p1 /blah mount: /dev/rd/c0d0p1 is not a valid block device lsmod Module Size Used by DAC960 58372 0 (unused) nfsd 182888 4 (autoclean) autofs 9644 2 (autoclean) eepro100 17432 1 (autoclean) memstat 1540 0 (unused) serial 42804 0 (autoclean) aic7xxx 105024 0 (unused) I've already rebooted, cold boot, even reseated the card for giggles. The card's bios info shows during boot, so the card didn't just magically die at the same time (I hope...). The only thing I can think of is I do have a problematic drive (being replaced soon) that will sometimes not respond. But it shouldn't take down the entire card (i think...). Other than that, nothing has been changed on the box. Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions, pointers, etc. would be greatly appreciated.

Warning: Option: AuthMechanisms requires SASL support (-DSASL) Warning: Option: DefaultAuthInfo requires SASL support (-DSASL) I tried to add some lines in mu spooker.mc, but I didn't give success. Can somebody help? Does anyone know another solution?

Antwort: [suse-security] iptables simple script, but...

Hi Pupeno, since SuSE7.1 the directory structure is nearly the same like RH or Mandrake. You can add the file to /etc/rc.d/ and link it to the different runlevels (if you want to start it as deamon). On the other hand you can put it to /root and run it as root wheneveryou want. for disabling any rules flushing the rules and set them to ACCEPT. MfG.

iptables-save, iptables-restore

Are this programs on SuSE ? In Mandrake a RedHat, they came with iptables, and the starting script is build around them. -- Pupeno: pupeno(a)pupeno.com.ar http://www.pupeno.com.ar

iptables simple script, but...
by Pupeno 29 May '01

29 May '01

Yes, I'll use an iptables simple script or not so simple, it doesn't matter, where should I place it and where should I call you (I'm an RH and Mdk experienced user an suse it's a bit diferent, and partialy lost, that's why I'm asking this). -- Pupeno: pupeno(a)pupeno.com.ar http://www.pupeno.com.ar

ipx and apache (maybe OT, maybe hole)
by Christian Lox 29 May '01

29 May '01

Hi everyone! Maybe this one is off topic but I am not sure... We have a SuSE box acting as a webserver. Now I noticed during one of our regular nmaps that ipx ports is open. But: gw:/usr/src/linux # grep IPX .config # CONFIG_IPX is not set The other day I noticed somehting like rpc-sometime or similar. I immediately did stop all not 100% necessary processes and this one did vanish. Maybe this belongs to our tests with Sybase?! Any hint appreciated, Christian

suspicious named-udp-port?
by Daniel Quappe 29 May '01

29 May '01

hi list, today i found an open unprivileged udp-port on my server listening on 0.0.0.0 which i detected to be related to my named-server 8.2.3-REL (update done...;-) if i shut down the named and restart it another (possibly random) high udp-port is used in addition to the privileged udp-port 53 listening on my "real" interfaces. is this something to worry about?! a nervous list-reader...;-) daniel -- Machen Sie Ihr Hobby zu Geld bei unserem Partner 1&1! http://profiseller.de/info/index.php3?ac=OM.PS.PS003K00596T0409a -- GMX - Die Kommunikationsplattform im Internet. http://www.gmx.net
