As a software developer I am very used to installing my typical stack (java, mysql and tomcat/apache) on my development machine. But setting up and securing a production machine is not something I would feel confident doing. Is there a A-Z guide for dummies for setting up and securing a production server? Is the process very different depending on platform (Windows or Linux)? Are there some general rules that can be applied across different platforms (and application stacks)?

How to mask redirect subdomain and ports to another external subdomain on that same port
I have read through the forum but still cannot get a clear answer for what I need.
My purpose is to mask redirect a subdomain to another one with the port passing together.
For example, I want my vdi.mydomain.com:445566 redirect to other location at client.cloud.example.com:445566 (The port is the same)
Basically, I want to connect a RDP session to someone else's server on special port. I want to use my url instead of others. And I prefer mask the destination url if possible. I have all domain control on my side. Any help? Thanks!

capacity - Using all space on Amazon EC2 - Medium tier
I'm currently running an Amazon EC2 - Medium Tier reserved instance for hosting client websites. Recently it seems space is starting to run low on /dev/sda1
- so I thought I'd better prepare..
df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 8.0G 5.6G 2.5G 70% /
none 848M 116K 848M 1% /dev
none 853M 0 853M 0% /dev/shm
none 853M 56K 853M 1% /var/run
none 853M 0 853M 0% /var/lock
/dev/sda2 335G 195M 318G 1% /mnt
I've seen this Question : How to mount space in /dev/sda2 - which offers one solution, but how do you resize an active partition like sda1 so I don't have to change our current setup? Or is there better ways to utilize sda2?
Answer
DO NOT USE THE SPACE IN /mnt! This is ephemeral storage and will not persist across reboots - if you put stuff in there IT WILL BE LOST. Some linux distros mount the ephemeral storage up for you as a convenience, use it for temp or swap.
You have a couple options.
Increase Root Drive Size
You can't resize /dev/sda1 on the fly. You can resize it on launch, however. This will require downtime, but what you can do is
Snapshot the existing instance into an AMI. This should give you ami-yyyyyy (I hope you are doing this or something like it already to make backups over time!)
ec2-stop-instances i-xxxxxx
ec2-create-image --name my-image-name-v1.0 --description "My lovely Web Server" i-xxxxxxx
Run a new instance of that image with a larger root drive size
ec2-run-instances -k ssh-key -z us-east-1b -t c1.medium -b "/dev/sda1=:50" ami-yyyyyy
Now you are running instance i-zzzzz. Depending on what Linux you are using you may need to then resize the file system to get the additional space. On Ubuntu, on the box:
sudo resize2fs /dev/sdf
Now swap in i-zzzzzz for i-xxxxxx in your elastic IP or ELB or DNS or however you're advertising it to the world.
Add A Second Drive
This is probably better - marginally more expensive, but best practice is NOT to put a bunch of stuff on your root drive, as if it fills up with logs or files you're going to crash and have a sad time of recovery.
Create an EBS volume of the desired size, let's say 20 GB. This gives you a volume, vol-yyyyyy.
ec2-create-volume -z us-east-1b -s 20
Attach the volume to your instance
ec2-attach-volume vol-yyyyyy -i i-xxxxxx -d /dev/sdf
On the instance, create a filesystem on it and mount it
sudo mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sdf
sudo mkdir -p /web
sudo mount /dev/sdf /web
Move your web root over to there.
Add the new drive permanently to /etc/mnttab
/dev/sdf /opt/apps ext3 defaults,rw 0 0
Snapshot your new image to AMI as in step 1 - always a good practice.
This also has the benefit of being able to back up that EBS separately by just snapshotting the volume, and also if you need to kill one server and bring up another, you can detach the /web EBS volume from one and attach it to the other, making data migration easy.
ubuntu - EC2 instance ssh connection not working
I tried to connect to my EC2 Ubuntu LTS instance but I failed.
The error message I got like below:
ssh: connect to host ec2-79-125-83-13.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com port 22: Connection refused
I checked the instance log, the last lines like below:
The disk drive for /dev/xvdf is not ready yet or not present.
Continue to wait, or Press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery
What could be the problem here?
Could you help me please?
Answer
Probably an /etc/fstab
issue. Ubuntu is trying to mount a partition present in /etc/fstab
and yet not able to find that partition i.e. /dev/xvdf.
In order to troubleshoot this, you need to -
1) shutdown this instance
2) Launch another instance
3) Attach the root EBS of this instance to the new instance from step(2)
4) mount the EBS from step(3) , say in /mnt/ebs
5) Check fstab
for any inconsistency , /mnt/ebs/etc/fstab. If there is any inconsistency, backup that file, modify it, unmount the partition, and re-attach it to the instance in step(1) and launch it.

iis 7 - HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server Error in Windows 7 IIS
I have a simple ASP.NET Web Site. When I try to run it on Windows 7 IIS, the following error message is displayed in my browser:
HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server
Error The requested page cannot be
accessed because the related
configuration data for the page is
invalid
How can I solve this problem?
Answer
When you get this error it means that there's probably something broken in your site's web.config
file. IIS7 is very helpful in these cases and will usually point you roughly where the problem lies.
For example, I've deliberately broken a web.config
on a test site by making it malformed XML:
The areas highlighted in red are providing me with a hint as to what is broken.
Without seeing the full error message from your site it would be hard to speculate what is wrong other than that something is invalid in your web.config
file (or perhaps a parent web.config
).
Update:
Based on your update and the new screenshot comment out the line indicated in red in your web.config
file, e.g.:
It looks like this setting has been locked somewhere on your machine, probably in the applicationHost.config
file in C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\config
.
You could try unlocking this setting to allow the web.config
setting to be used by running the following on an Administrator command line:
appcmd.exe unlock config /section:system.webserver/modules /commit:apphost
domain name system - Bind get zone transfer status after executing rndc reload
I have a script that executes rndc reload
on secondary (slave) servers on the zones that are modified. This command returns success if the reload is queued successfully.
I wanted to know if there is a way I can get the status of the actual zone transfer without going through the logs itself. I want to be able to automatically handle the case when bind reload failed based on the error itself. Currently, I have to parse the logs to get the status of the zone transfer after executing rndc reload
.
Can someone help me figure out how I can get the status of the zone transfer after executing rndc reload
which is better than parsing the logs itself.
NOTE [to add more clarity]: I know notify can be used for master to communicate to the slave about a change. My question is about knowing if there is any way to get notified when the zone transfer initiated by the slave failed due to any reason without parsing the logs.
E.g. May be after notifying the slave, the master server died due to some reason. In this case, when the slave initiates a zone transfer, it would fail on getting the SOA record from the master. I want to get notified for these kind of errors that can happen during zone transfer without actually parsing the logs.
Let me know if more information is needed.

internet - Can someone explain to me exactly why it's bad to use NS name that is a subdomain for the domain that NS is for
Reading a book and it states that you should not register
nameserver names such as ns1.example.com for the domain
example.com as you'll create a catch-22 situation when looking up ns1.example.com etc.
I know what a catch-22 is, but I just don't see how this fits in.
At which stage does this occur exactly, when internet central directory queries whois records
for that domain to find nameserver ip ?
excerpt from "The difinitive guide to CentOS (APress)"
Caution As you can imagine, telling the world that the primary DNS
server for example.org is dns0. example.org has some issues. Mainly,
this has you running around in circles because you’ve created a
catch-22 situation. You cannot look up dns0.example.org because to do
so you need to ask dns0. example.org. Now, as long as you have name
servers in another domain, this will still work, but it’s clearly a
bad idea. Stay away from this one, and if you have to, use a so-called
glue record that defines dns0.example.org in the parent .org zone to
solve the issue.
Answer
It's simply not true to say that doesn't work, or causes problems. For example, on my main domain:
[madhatta@www tmp]$ whois teaparty.net
[Querying whois.verisign-grs.com]
[Redirected to whois.tucows.com]
[Querying whois.tucows.com]
[whois.tucows.com]
[...]
Domain servers in listed order:
NS.TEAPARTY.NET 193.219.118.102
NS2.TEAPARTY.NET 78.46.204.154
[...]
which works just fine. The technical elements that makes this work are the glue records, which you can read about at the link above, and elsewhere.
proxy - SSH forwarding by username
I want to make available a pool of dev machines to a pool of developers, where each developer should only access its own dev machine. Dev machines are on a private network, behind a NAT, whereas developers are on the DMZ.
I'd want to implement a solution in which:
- users connect via ssh (X forwarding included) to the NAT public interface, which in turn forwards the request to an Access Control machine (basically a proxy);
- the AC machine forwards the connection to the right dev machine, depending on a configurable policy.
Clearly, users should neither know about target machine name or IP nor guess the network structure. They should only initiate an SSH connection without any client-side special configuration (this prevents the use of ProxyCommand).
How can I implement such a solution?

security - Where should I setup a staging environment in Amazon VPC? And testing?
I setup the production environment for my service in an Amazon VPC in Oregon:
- 2 availability zones
- 1 public subnet (including bastion, nat, and ELBs) and 3 private subnets (database, web servers and configuration/supervision) in each availability zone.
- 11 security groups
There are about 25 VMs, for now, and hopefully it will grow.
Now I'm going to setup the staging environment, but I'm not sure where to put it:
- should I simply put the staging instances next to the production instances? Basically, simply reuse the same Amazon region, the same availability zones, the same subnets and the same security groups? I would just need to create new ELBs pointing to staging instances, and that's it. Simple.
- or should I put the staging instances in their own subnets, but still in the same region/availability zones? The public subnets would have to be the same though, because you cannot have two public subnets in a single availability zone. Having separate subnets might make it easier to manage things, and I could have dedicated routing rules, to go through different nat instances and possibly a different bastion as well. More complex, but tighter security. I think I might not need to double the security groups though, because I could have a single overall network ACL forbidding traffic between production and staging subnets.
- or should I duplicate the whole setup in a different VPC? Since I can only have one VPC per Amazon Region, I would have to do this in a separate region.
The whole point of the staging environment is to be identical to the production environment (or as close as possible). So setting up staging environment in a different Amazon Region just feels wrong: this rules out option 3, doesn't it?
Option 1 is closest to the target of being as close to production as possible. But having staging and production environments in the same subnets feels a bit like a potential security issue, right? So I'm somewhat leaning towards option 2, but I wonder if the potential security issues are serious enough to justify having twice as many subnets to manage?
And what about the testing environment? It should resemble production as well, but it does not need to match it as closely: everything can fit on a few instances, no need for ELBs and everything. Perhaps this environment could all fit in a single dedicated subnet in the same VPC? Being in the same VPC, it would have simple access to the git repository and chef server and supervision tools and openvpn access, etc.
I'm sure many people have been through these considerations? What's your take on this?
Thanks.

Cisco static NAT not working on LAN side
I have a web server in my private network that has the ip address 192.168.1.134.
I need to allow users to access this web server from both the internet and the private network. The public ip address is 85.185.236.12. I setup static nat (192.168.1.136 => 85.185.236.12) on the wan interface. Now, when we access it from the internet everything works perfectly, but when we try to access it from the LAN we can't access the webserver. I use cisco 1841 router and i think nat not working when i try to access it. How can we access the web server from the LAN? Thanks.

logging - Log MySQL login attempts
From time to time there are failed login attempts in our MySQL production server (MySQL dashboard alerts us). Is there a way to log every single success and failed login to the MySQL server without enabling general_log
?
We think general_log
is not an option due it's a production server with high load.
linux - Doing a long-running command on ssh
I'm ssh
ing into a server and I'm starting a Python script that'll take approx. 24 hours to complete. What if my internet connection dies in the middle? Will that stop the command?
Is there any way to run my long-running command in a way that local disconnects won't affect it and I could continue to see its output after I log in to ssh
again?
Answer
The best way is to use screen
(on the server) to start a session to run the command in and then disconnect the screen so it will keep running, and you can do other things, or just disconnect from the server. The other option is to use nohup
in combination with &
so you would have nohup
monitoring - What tool do you use to monitor your clients?
Well, we had "What tool do you use to monitor your servers?", and I wondered, do you (and should you) monitor your clients (desktops and laptops)? What tools are useful for this?
It seems to me that one should monitor the clients -- to guage how well they are performing, perhaps to keep an eye on battery life and power usage, perhaps watching hard drive, network, CPU and maybe even GPU usage, and, indeed, to see if lab users avoid a certain machine or if it never shows up on the network.
Please state which platform(s) a given tool works with, and the licence or cost, if it is easily determined.

How do I redirect subdomains to the root domain in Nginx on CentOS?
I'm using Centos with Nginx and Puma. I would like to redirect all subdomains to my main root domain, so I was following the instructions here -- https://stackoverflow.com/questions/26801479/nginx-redirect-all-subdomains-to-main-domain . However I can't get it to work. Below is my configuration
upstream projecta {
server unix:///home/rails/projecta_production/shared/sockets/puma.sock;
}
server {
listen 80;
server_name mydomein.com;
return 301 http://mydomein.com$request_uri;
root /home/rails/projecta_production/public; # I assume your app is located at this location
location / {
proxy_pass http://projecta; # match the name of upstream directive which is defined above
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}
location ~* ^/assets/ {
# Per RFC2616 - 1 year maximum expiry
expires 1y;
add_header Cache-Control public;
# Some browsers still send conditional-GET requests if there's a
# Last-Modified header or an ETag header even if they haven't
# reached the expiry date sent in the Expires header.
add_header Last-Modified "";
add_header ETag "";
break;
}
}
If I exclude the "return 301 http://mydomein.com$request_uri;" line then my site will work on the root domain ,but not on any of the sub-domains (e.g. viewing a subdomain will yield the default Nginx index page). How do I redirect all sub-domains to my main domain and preserve my Rails/Puma configuration?
Answer
You are currently listening on the apex domain vhost for the redirect. What you need to do is have a separate vhost listener that redirects to the apex. This is an example of a wildcard listener redirecting to the apex domain definition:
upstream projecta {
server unix:///home/rails/projecta_production/shared/sockets/puma.sock;
}
# Listener for all subdomains
server {
listen 80;
server_name *.mydomein.com;
# If you want to redirect all requests, not just subdomains, use below config instead.
# server_name _;
return 301 http://mydomein.com$request_uri;
}
# Listener for Apex Domain
server {
listen 80;
server_name mydomein.com;
root /home/rails/projecta_production/public; # I assume your app is located at this location
location / {
proxy_pass http://projecta; # match the name of upstream directive which is defined above
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}
location ~* ^/assets/ {
# Per RFC2616 - 1 year maximum expiry
expires 1y;
add_header Cache-Control public;
# Some browsers still send conditional-GET requests if there's a
# Last-Modified header or an ETag header even if they haven't
# reached the expiry date sent in the Expires header.
add_header Last-Modified "";
add_header ETag "";
break;
}
}
amazon web services - Losing database connection with high traffic on AWS - not sure where to start troubleshooting
I'm designing a highly available WP site on AWS using Elastic Beanstalk, and testing use load with a Locust.
Everything looks alright: my EC2s are t2.mediums, auto scaled over 3-6 availability zones. Load balancer is set to "Cross-zone" load balancing (so traffic should be distributed to 3 servers in 3 different zones), I am using Aurora (db.t2.medium) with a master->read replica setup.
Things are fine when I visit the site in my browser, but as soon as I spin up Locust (with 100-500 users, 90-100 second wait times, 10 user hatch rate) my site will almost instantly lose the connection to the database and eventually throw a 50x error.
My Apache/PHP setup is pretty out of the box from Beanstalk (Amazon Linux AMI, php 5.6), specs listed below.
opcache is enabled by default, but phpfpm is not currently installed.
Here is a diagram of my setup, and then the specs:
- EC2
- 3 t2.Mediums
- 2 vCPUs
- 24 CPU credits/hour
- 4g RAM
- Apache 2.4
- PHP 5.6
- upload_max_filesize => 64M
- post_max_size => 64M
- max_execution_time => 120
- memory_limit => 256M
- Opcache
- opcache.enable=1
- opcache.memory_consumption=128
- opcache.interned_strings_buffer=8
- opcache.max_accelerated_files=4000
I am unsure whether or not this is a hardware configuration issue, or if I need to tweak PHP/Apache/MySql
Answer
OK so I think I had several issues:
When I originally created the DBs, I made t2.micros which by default only allow for 40 connections at once. I had later changed the instance, to t2.mediums but the max_connections seemed to stay the same. I have recreated the DBs at t2.mediums and the max_connections are now 90 and I can increate if need be.
I misread the Locust documentation, and I had set the test to hit the site every 90ms, so every .09 seconds which is a lot. I just increased the hit time to 3-10 seconds (actual seconds) and the servers hold up fine now.
Increasing the Locust users to 200 however results in a 75% failure (database disconnect) rate but I think I can either adjust the max_connections even more, or throw a CDN in front of the site (which I'll be doing anyway)
@michael-sqlbot gets the prize here, he led me down the right path.
Mail not delivered from custom email server (MS Exchange)
I have my own Exchange Server 2013 (SP1). I am able to receive emails ok but sending emails is not reliable. Emails sent to gmail or seznam.cz (email provider in Czech Republic) is ok.
The problem is sending emails to outlook.com. I guess it is somehow discarded by spam filter but I don't know why. The delivery report says The message was successfully handed off to a different email system. This is as far as we can track it.
but email is not delivered and nothing returns back.
This I have already done:
- set MX record for my domain (
aaa.com
tomail.aaa.com
) - set A recored (
mail.aaa.com
tox.x.x.x
) - set reverse IP record (
x.x.x.x
tomail.aaa.com
) - set TXT record
v=spf1 mx a -all
- removed internal hostnames of outbound emails (link)
- set FQDN for send connector (
mail.aaa.com
) - set FQDN for FrontendTransport receive connectors (
mail.aaa.com
)
The mail server is not listed in any blacklist in http://mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx.
Is there anything else I should do? I really don't know where to start looking right now.
Answer
Adding this as an answer : If your mail server is getting a successful SMTP message out, and recipients aren't receiving it, you must ask the people who own the next-hop mailserver. There is literally no other way for you to find out what that mailserver did with what your server gave them. You can guess all day long, and you should (in general) follow best practices and check if you're on DNS RBLs, etc, but it's still just guessing.

networking - Local or public NTP servers?
For a relatively large network (thousands of hosts) - what are the arguments for and against running a locally managed (pool of) NTP server(s) (perhaps periodically set via some public NTP server) and having all other hosts on the network use that (pool of) NTP server(s) versus having all hosts simply use public NTP servers directly, say via ntp.pool.org?
Aside from the pros and cons, What is typical best practice today?
Answer
The best practice is to run your own pool of NTP servers set to sync from public NTP servers. In the event that your organization was to lose internet access, you would not want your clocks to become skewed. Further, it is rude to set thousands of hosts to public servers when you could (and should) operate a mirror.
Finally, if you have a secure computing requirement, then you should operate your own independent NTP hosts. You would require special hardware for these systems to operate.
EDIT: Since there was discussion of it, here is some hardware:
Any hardware supporting PPS seems to work on a modern ntpd. This includes some GPS units, although this seems to be rare, at least as rare as serial GPS units are these days. There are hardware devices sold explicitly for this function, however, including one product called TSync-PCIe. According to the manufacturer's site:
The TSync-PCIe offers several
configurations of a synchronized
timecode reader/generator package
offering flexibility and easy
integration of precise timing into an
embedded computing application. Choose
from synchronization to IRIG (and
other similar timecodes), GPS
(internal or external receivers), or
Precise Time Protocol
(PTP/IEEE-1588v2).

routing - PFSense: For specific IP address, route traffic to internal host
I have a PFSense box, with several hosts on its LAN. On the WAN side is a series of switches and routers. External hosts use a specific IP address (we'll call it 1.2.3.4) which is forwarded through several layers to the PFSense box, which then port forwards it to a host INSIDE the PFSense LAN network (let's call it 192.168.1.2).
On the distant network, everyone can use 1.2.3.4 to connect to that host and it all works fine. However, on the internal side, they have to remember to use a different address (192.168.1.2).
We want to have a way for the 1.2.3.4 address to work both outside AND inside the PFSense network. However, we do not want to change the internal 192.168.1.0/24 subnet. It's not as simple as NAT reflection, though, because the WAN address of the PFSense box is NOT 1.2.3.4 but rather an arbitrary IP assigned by the next layer. The 1.2.3.0/24 network is several routers away. I've tried multiple configurations of port forwarding, NAT, firewall rules, etc. all without success.
What I want to do is intercept all traffic bound for 1.2.3.4 at the PFSense router and have it sent to 192.168.1.2 instead. Bonus points if the traffic doesn't actually have to go through PFSense but is instead routed by the switch to avoid bandwidth bottlenecks (maybe some combination of DHCP/ARP could accomplish this).
Is this possible, and what's the best way to achieve it?

- NAT router converts to 192.168.2.4
- PFSense router receives traffic at 192.168.2.4 and maps internally to 192.168.1.2
Answer
The only way I know how to do this is with NAT. You will have to specify the ports that you will be using. I just tested this on PFsense 2.3.2.
- Create a NAT rule
- Specify destination as Single Host or Alias: 1.2.3.4
- Port needs to be the port that you intend to use (From and To)(Tested with 80)
- Redirect target ip needs to be 192.168.1.2
- Redirect target port cant be "any", so you need to specify the port from above
- NAT reflection needs to be "Enable (Pure NAT)" <-IMPORTANT!!!!
If you have an application that needs several ports, you will have to specify every port.
Hope this helps!
apache 2.2 - apache2 configuration for blog.example.com not working
I have my blog running at a server with ip 10.10.10.10(not real).
There is only one virtual host for this blog on the server.
Here is the apache configuration:
VirtualHost star:80

My DNS blog.example.com is pointing to this ip address 10.10.10.10 .
When I load first time blog.example.com it loads correct with no problems. But whenever i click a link it shows url like http://10.10.10.10/login.php etc.
I am a newbie. Please help me set up this.
Is there any problem with the rewrite rule ?
internet - Can't connect to server, others can
I've set up a Webserver(port 80) and a Minecraft server. Me and my friends play on this server regularly and haven't had any problems connecting before this.
Now, one friend complains about not being able to connect. In order to debug this I made him connect to my webserver(different computer, same IP), but he says he can't.
Pinging doesn't work either.
Other friends however, have no difficulty connecting, so it's not a router issue(right?)
In order to be sure, we both did a system reset on both our routers/modems, still nothing.
I did some research on why this could be, and some say that being on the same subnet results in this kind of behavior. How can i test this?
To sum up:
At first, everybody can connect.
Then out of nowhere, A can't ping B, B can't ping A. But C,D, etc. can ping A and B just fine.
What can I do to fix this?
Edit: We are connected over the internet.
Edit 2: Traceroute
$ traceroute 80.56.241.61
traceroute to 80.56.241.61 (80.56.241.61), 64 hops max, 52 byte packets

Edit 3: Called UPC
Fed up, I called UPC again. They told me everything was fine and that it's most likely my server or my router's problem. Thing is, I know for sure it isn't since I reset them both. He did admin however, that it could be a subnet problem but they can't do much about that other than wait until I get a new IP.
Anybody got ANY ideas that don't just mean: wait?
Edit 4: UPC caved, they're investigating it now.
Answer
If your friends are connecting over the public internet then try looking at the output of tracert (windows) or traceroute (unix) too see where the connection is being blocked if your IP address is 1.2.3.4 then
tracert 1.2.3.4
or
traceroute 1.2.3.4
If you are all connected to the same LAN then check that the IP addresses are all in the same block and then netmask for your friends computer is the same as everyone else's.
How to disable all bounce back email in exim 4.69
I have set up an email server to send out solicited newsletters.
There should be no "regular" users of this server, so it is not desirable to send bounce notifications back to the recipient. Especially so since I am tracking bounces myself by parsing the log files periodically.
What I want is to unconditionally prevent exim from ever sending a bounce notification email back to a sender.
How can I do this?
Thank you!
(I accidentally posted this to superuser before posting it here, disregard that if you come across)
What I want is an email server that will accept all incoming emails, deliver it accordingly (that is remotely or locally) and not send a bounce notification the sender upon bounce.
I log bounces myself, in a database. The only function bounce messages have in my setting is to waste resources and bandwidth.
I need to send emails fast, using exiwhat
during a run, I see a significant number of deliveries to bounce@host.com. I could potentially increase my email productivity by 10~20% if all bounce emails are eliminated.
Apache/2.2.20 (Ubuntu 11.10) gzip compression won't work on php pages, content is chunked
I'm running into a problem with a new production server whereto I'm transferring projects. The HTML output of the PHP applications isn't compressed by the Apache mod_deflate module. Other resources, as stylesheet and javascript files, even html pages, which are served with the same Content-type (text/html) as the PHP output, are compressed!
The projects use the following rules (from HTML5 boilerplate) in the .htaccess:
# Force deflate for mangled headers developer.yahoo.com/blogs/ydn/posts/2010/12/pushing-beyond-gzipping/
SetEnvIfNoCase ^(Accept-EncodXng|X-cept-Encoding|X{15}|~{15}|-{15})$ ^((gzip|deflate)\s*,?\s*)+|[X~-]{4,13}$ HAVE_Accept-Encoding

We have a testing machine that runs the same Apache, OS and PHP version. On that machine the compression works just fine on the PHP output. I've checked and compared Apache and PHP config files, all the same as far as I can tell.
I've tried several manners of outputting the content of the PHP, using output buffering or just plain echoing the content. Same thing, no compression.
Example response headers of a PHP output:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2012 23:30:59 GMT
Server: Apache
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Expires: Thu, 19 Nov 1981 08:52:00 GMT

Pragma: no-cache
Vary: User-Agent
Keep-Alive: timeout=5, max=98
Connection: Keep-Alive
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
Example of response headers on a css file:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2012 23:30:59 GMT
Server: Apache
Last-Modified: Mon, 04 Jul 2011 19:12:36 GMT

Does anyone has a clue or experienced the same "problem"?
thanks!

linux - Gmail bouncing postfix mail
I followed this tutorial to get email working on my VPS. I've been having problems sending email to Gmail.
I can receive emails fine, but any mail that is sent to Gmail is bounced with the following message:
Our system has detected that this message
is 550-5.7.1 likely unsolicited mail. To reduce the amount of spam sent to
Gmail, 550-5.7.1 this message has been blocked. Please visit 550 5.7.1

I have updated my PTR record to match my IP address.
Before I was getting messages in mail.log that looked like this:
postfix/smtp[3160]: connect to gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com[2607:f8b0:400c:c06::1b]:25: Connection timed out
and after searching around I found that this was a problem with IPv6, which I've now disabled on my box. I've stopped getting these messages but I'm still receiving bounce messages.
Here is my main.cf:

Does Apache Benchmark allow intervals between each request?
I have a server which blocks burst request (if the same IP address accesses the server more than 3 times a second, it will serve 500 error).
So when I use Apache benchmark, I see a lot of failed requests, even when I set concurrency to 1.
Is there an option to set an interval between each request? Or is there similar benchmarking tools that offers this interval functionality?
Answer
You're really not going to accomplish any meaningful load testing with concurrency limited to 3. You probably need to remove the requests per second restriction for the IP that you're testing from.
yum - CentOS 6: installing .el5 rpms?
System has CentOS 6.2 32-bit installed. Im having some issues running 'yum update' - I get a series of errors that point to incorrect RPMs being installed (see this link: http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/print.php?form=1&topic_id=34994&forum=56&order=ASC&start=0 )

So my questions are:
1) How did I end up with these rpms?
2) I've tried to 'yum erase
What am I doing wrong?
Answer
.rf.
is telling you it's from RPMforge. Not sure why they would install but Yum figured they were compatible. Is there a problem with those packages or just yum update
? I would disable RPMforge for the update. yum update --disablerepo=rpmforge
. If the package exists in both repositories you will also end up with trouble.
apache 2.4 - Let's Encrypt SSL Certificate File Not Found Error, but still working
I'm running SSL Certificates from Let's Encrypt. I've got them installed on my Ubuntu machine running Apache. The setup works fine and I can launch the website, see the green padlock and even got an A+ on SSL Labs.
The problem is that when I do apachectl configtest the server would return a file not found error:
SSLCertificateFile: file '/etc/letsencrypt/live/www.example.com/fullchain.pem' not exist or is empty.
But sudo service apache2 restart
works just fine.
I got this question running at Let's Encrypt Community but the issue hasn't been resolved yet.
sudo cat /etc/letsencrypt/live/www.example.com/fullchain.pem
works, returns valid certificate details.
sudo x509 -text -noout -in /etc/letsencrypt/live/www.example.com/fullchain.pem
does not work and returns the error below:
Error opening Certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/www.example.com/fullchain.pem
139774254929568:error:02001002:system library:fopen:No such file or directory:bss_file.c:398:fopen('/etc/letsencrypt/live/www.example.com/fullchain.pem.','r')
139774254929568:error:2007402:BIO routines:FILE_CTRL:system lib:bss_file.c:400:
ubable to load certificate
Any ideas on why I'm getting errors on apachectl configtest and openssl?
Thanks guys!
Answer
After several sleepless nights, I finally got it to work. (overkill statement) We all know it was permissions, but exactly where was something to check.
I kept on working with /ect/letsencrypt/live and the directories and files under that. I kept changing permissions from the original to 0755 and 0777. What I did not immediately see was that /etc/letsencrypt/live was a link created from /etc/letsencrypt/archive and it had a 0700 permission. That's why it wasn't able to read the file. After changing the permission of /etc/letsencrypt/archive to 0755, apachectl configtest
already responded with Syntax OK
.
Although the original issue was resolved, I will refer this back to Let's Encrypt because this was all Auto Installation of Certificates. Something like this should not happen in "auto". But my setup might have something to do with the permission issue since I installed it using a non-root user (but I did sudo).
Hope this helps someone.

linux - Accessing the partitions on an LVM volume
Suppose you have an LVM volume /dev/vg0/mylv. You have presented this as a virtual disk to a virtualised or emulated guest system. During installation the guest system sees it as /dev/sda and partitions it into /dev/sda{1,2,5,6} and completes the installation. Now at some point you need to access those filesystems from within the host system, without running the guest system. fdisk sees these partitions just fine:
# fdisk -l /dev/vg0/mylv
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/vg0/mylv1 2048 684031 340992 83 Linux
/dev/vg0/mylv2 686078 20969471 10141697 5 Extended
/dev/vg0/mylv5 686080 8290303 3802112 83 Linux
/dev/vg0/mylv6 8292352 11980799 1844224 83 Linux
However, the devices such as /dev/vg0/mylv1 do not actually exist. I guess that because they're within an LV, the OS does not recognise this type of nesting by default. Is there any way I can prod Linux so that /dev/vg0/mylv1 or equivalent appears and thus becomes mountable within the host system?
I understand that it's possible with qemu-nbd, and will use this if necessary. However, I was hoping for something more direct if possible, rather than simulating a network block device and attaching that.
Answer
I believe the tool you're looking for is kpartx
.
The general procedure is:
List partitions in the disk image:
kpartx -l /dev/vg0/mylv
Add the partitions to device-mapper:
kpartx -a /dev/vg0/mylv
Mount the partition you're interested in:
mount -o ro /dev/mapper/loop0p5 /mnt
raid - ESXi local storage recommendation
We are going to buy HP Proliant Server DL380p Gen8, and we want to run vmware esxi 5.1. but I have problem with choosing the correct storage with the lack of budget. we have choice to buy 4x2TB SATA or 4x300GB 10K SAS or NAS (iSCSI support such as WD or Synology) but the price of these storage are completely different so I want to know:
- How much different between these storage in VMWare world? (our main problem is budget)
- Which RAID should I use? I heard that RAID 5 has reduce performance?
- Because it`s completely bare metal drive, How should I partition these drive? (Assume I used RAID 5 4x2TB?) I want to install 2 Windows server 2008 R2 for sql Server DB?
- Is it best practice to install the vmware hypervisor on USB?
what is the best practice for choosing storage for vmware esxi?

cdn - How does "Cloud Files" from Rackspace know about my CNAME record?
TLDR: when I make this DNS record:
whatever.mydomain.com. IN CNAME biglongjibberstring.r89.cf2.rackcdn.com.
How does Rackspace know that this random host name I've chosen should go to my Cloud Files container/account as opposed to another customer?
I just tested a simple example of using Cloud Files with Rackspace. I made a Cloud Files "Container" and enabled the "Static Website" option. I uploaded an example image and an example index.html file. These files in this container are now available at this crazy-long URL, which the UI tells me I can use as the CNAME for my domain:
And sure enough, adding a CNAME record like:
whatever.mydomain.com. IN CNAME biglongjibberstring.r89.cf2.rackcdn.com.
Browsing to http://whatever.mydomain.com/ works (tested the home page and the image). But how could it possibly know that when it sees a request for "whatever.mydomain.com" (in the HTTP Host header) that it is meant for my particular cloud files container?
It seems to have something to do with DNS, since if I just put "blah.example.com" in my hosts file with the IP address that biglongjibberstring.r89.cf2.rackcdn.com. resolves to - that does not work (gives an error about Invalid URL - appears to be coming from Akamai). The only way I could possibly see this working is if somehow the DNS lookup for whatever.mydomain.com was somehow transmitting back to Rackspace/Akamai DNS servers this relationship between "whatever.mydomain.com" and "biglongjibberstring.r89.cf2.rackcdn.com.". But I've never seen this approach and I don't even think that DNS lookup that goes back to Rackspace/Akamai actually contains the information necessary for this (although I could be wrong about that).
Does anyone know what kind of black magic is going on here?

linux - When exim4 sends HELO/EHLO, how do I configure which host name it sends?
Mails from my system are being rejected when the receiving server does HELO checking. I believe my system is sending the wrong domain name. I'm running exim4. Googling for anything about exim4 and domains yields a nightmarish list of irrelevant results. Similarly, googling for HELO rejections yields a horde of outlook users who need to turn on SMTP authentication. I cannot for the life of me figure out this simple question: which hostname is exim sending and how do I change it?
Unfortunately, I can't watch what exim is sending over the wire, so I have no way to debug this myself. I'm hoping someone has had this problem and just knows :).
Answer
Assuming the error is complaining about the HELO/EHLO data, you want to use the helo_data option on the smtp transport. The default is $primary_hostname.
remote_smtp:
driver = smtp
helo_data = host.example.com
More information is available in the manual.
If this isn't the case, you probably want to include some example rejection messages. Just the three digit code and the string after that.
linux - Symlink - Permission Denied
I'm facing an interesting problem with plenty of Permission Denied outputs when using SymLinks
Linux: Slackware 13.1
Directory with Symlink:
root@Tower:/var/lib# ls -lah
drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 0 2012-12-02 20:09 ./
drwxr-xr-x 15 root root 0 2012-12-01 21:06 ../
lrwxrwxrwx 1 ntop ntop 21 2012-12-02 20:09 ntop -> /mnt/user/media/ntop6/
Symlinked Directory:
root@Tower:/mnt/user/media# ls -lah
drwxrwx--- 1 nobody users 1.4K 2012-12-02 19:28 ./
drwxrwx--- 1 nobody users 128 2012-11-18 16:06 ../
drwxrwxrwx 1 ntop ntop 320 2012-12-02 20:22 ntop6/
What I have done:
- I have used chown -h ntop:ntop on the ntop directory in /var/lib
- Just to be sure, I have chmod 777 to both directories
Permission denied actions:
root@Tower:/var/lib# sudo -u ntop mkdir /var/lib/ntop/test
mkdir: cannot create directory `/var/lib/ntop/test': Permission denied
Any ideas?
email - FreeBSD: system is sending mail for any user to an external smtp - why?
There is a problem with one of my jails. All Jails sending their mails for root to root, except one jail (nginx). This jail sends mails to root@jailname.domain.tld
. My Postfix is configured to accept those mails but I don't find the reason why only this jail is sending to the relay. (Strange thing: If I send a mail from jail nginx the mail will be signed with DKIM. If I use ~./forward
in another jail than nginx to reach my Postfix, the mail will not be DKIM-signed.)
Using ~/.forward
in the jail nginx will be ignored.
The jail is sending every mail to the external relay (even for users that don't exist!)
In all Jails I set sendmail_enable=NO
and sendmail isn't running. Also pkg info
don't list any 3rd-party mailer.
Test from this Jail (Jailname: nginx):

So, you see that the jail nginx is relaying his mails to the mailserver while other jails don't.
I don't know why.
I tryed several ideas to find the cause of relaying:
# cat ~/.forward
cat: /root/.forward: No such file or directory
# cat ~/.mailrc
cat: /root/.mailrc: No such file or directory
# mail -d root
say: user = root, homedir = /root
Sendmail arguments: "send-mail" "-i" "root"
/etc/mail/
is untouched. The timestamps points to the time, the jail was build. Also there is no .mc
-file except the initially existend freebsd.mc
and freebsd.submit.mc
. Because of this there is also no special directive in /etc/mail/aliases
.
The directive to relay mails to the external mailserver must come from outside /etc/mail
but I don't have any clues where to search any more...
Any ideas?
edit1: I did grep -rl 10.23.102.251 /
(the mailserver-IP) and grep -rl mail.domain.tld /
last night. Each ran for about four hours and found nothing.
edit2: sendmail is served by:
# cat /etc/mail/mailer.conf
# $FreeBSD: releng/11.1/etc/mail/mailer.conf 93858 2002-04-05 04:25:14Z gshapiro $

debian - Is it possible and wise to put the grub bios partition on a software raid?
in a two disk setup
/dev/sda
/dev/sdb
i created per disk 3 partitions
bios_grub 1mb
linux raid 512mb md0 (/boot - ext3)
linux raid rest md1 (physical volume for lvm)
the answer on https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/218384 states that it is not possible to create a mirror raid for bios grub
You will need hardware RAID if you want the BIOS boot partition to be
mirrored.
but on https://askubuntu.com/a/57010 it looks like it is possible but there is no info how it works
You will need hardware RAID if you want the BIOS boot partition to be mirrored. You can, however, install GRUB to multiple drives; just run grub-install in the target OS on each drive that has a BIOS boot partition (give it the entire drive, like /dev/sda, as an argument; grub-install will figure out the location of the BIOS boot partition from the GPT).
so is it possible to create a software raid for the bios_grub partition? if yes how? currently i use fai setup-storage to create the partitions.
untagged - Learning Curve and time needed to install/manage Centos Server
Completely newby question please. I always had shared hosting. Now I am about to get a dedicated Centos server. I now need to know whether I should get a managed one or not. 2 questions please:
- Whats the learning curve (approx. days/months) assuming I am a fast learner?
- If I managed it myself, how much of my time (approx. each day) do I need to commit in managing the server? (Assuming normal circumstances).
thank you for any help!
Answer
If I was in your shoes, I would rent a very cheap VPS (less than $5/month) and have the provider install your intended Centos distrib on it. Use this to determine your comfort level with working with the platform before renting a dedicated server.
Also, please note that the amount of time spent managing a server will vary depending on what is running on the server.
linux - Server suddenly became too slow with timeout error
My server suddenly became slow, all the websites in it at the http level
i have checked all the logs but there is nothing that indicate why it's happening if anyone have any suggestion please
My setup :
Centos 6.8
Nginx 1.10
php-fpm 7.0
Mariadb 10.1
Memory 32gb with 13 gb free
1 year later still the same problem
Note: The only way i was able to reduce load to 10 seconds was by moving all cache to memory tmpfs
- Enabling Nginx cache jump the load back to 100s either adding cache folder to memory or not (Which i couldn't understand as it was working fine before)
