I don't have admin access to a BSD box at the moment, so some of what follows may not make sense... But since no one else has responded, there are a few things I'd look at. I'm assuming that the behavior is due to a bug in userspace, probably in the cron program itself. Can you recompile cron with debugging symbols, and attach gdb to one of the runaway processes? Do you get any information from the crons' start times (it'd help to see the output from ps auxw | grep cron, without piping into wc)? It may be related to a specific job that you're trying to execute, and you could narrow that down (or prove the hypothesis false) by working out when the crons actually started running... Are new crons being forked off or dieing? You may get something from ktrace -g on the cron daemon's process group. If you kill -11 a cron, does it produce a core dump that you can feed to gdb?

Thanks for solving that mystery. An odd thing about the megaraid tool is that the version from ports has a check for 32 bit libraries, which seems odd since my direct download from LSI works fine. > There is also two ways to get lib32 installed. 1.

Interesting. I see a "build32" target in /usr/src/Makefile. After more googling, I found this: http://old.nabble.com/**-FreeBSD-6.2---amd64---attempting-to-install-32bit-library-support-**-td15704398.html It's a bit old, but apparently the correct way to do this is to set "WITH_LIB32=yes" in /etc/make.conf. Thankfully this is not a desktop, I don't even want to imagine the confusion that ensues when trying to run something like a 64 bit Firefox with a 32-bit linux version of flash or some other insane nonsense. I'm a bit surprised this isn't a handbook entry yet. In the past I've setup a 4.11 jail on a 6.3 host. For giggles, and to try to beat some dying hardware to the punch, I'm going to try a 4.8 jail on this thing and see what happens. The 4.11 "solution" worked incredibly well. I wish I'd documented more of that procedure...

They have a good deal of hardware and I believe most of it is MIPS: http://routerboard.com/ I ended up looking at them last night after digging around for some cheap switches for building internet access - wanted something that I could power by PoE to avoid getting electricians involved. Found that nifty 9-port model and started thinking about how neat it would be to have QoS, NAT and firewalling right at the edge like that. Cheap stuff...

AFAIK, first ones I've seen with gigabit NICs. Not quite sure what this means on the liantec site: "Flash memory capacity up to 2 GBytes (and beyond)" I wish vendors would say "Type I, II" etc with CF cards. . that is something of the standard, AFAIK.

Bway.net has an office available for sublet, it's approximately 10'x13' and it's in our office at Prince and Broadway. One Cisco VoIP phone with unlimited calling and it's own DID is included, basic internet connectivity (ethernet) as well as power, heat, A/C, etc. Location is nice, subway stop right at the building (N/R) and one up at Houston (V/F/D/B). The office is big enough for two or three people. There's a minimal kitchen in the office, and you can also use the conference area. Listing is on Craigslist: http://newyork.craigslist.org/mnh/off/1454673315.html In the past we've had tenants that had little need for some of the perks that are available: -100Mb/s bandwidth over metro-e at this location (we'd include either capped or burstable in the office, could be talked into a deal if you need lots) -small co-lo room (we'd discount co-location and bandwidth) -co-lo at 111 8th Ave/Level3 (again, a discount for a tenant) -depending on your line of business, we can refer customers to you Contact me if you have any questions...

This seems to be normal based on what I've seen on other hosts. However I have some subdirectories in one of my "lib32" search paths and none of the libs in the subdirectories get added (confirmed with "ldconfig -32 -r").

I've had a terrible time getting FreeBSD's ldconfig look through the directories I tell it, recursive or not. On Linux it's a simple .conf directive, but I've yet to find anything but symlink and similar hacks in FreeBSD. The documented .conf settings don't appear to have an effect. > I can find no documentation explaining when ldconfig descends into > subdirectories and when it does not.

I have no problems with it scanning the appropriate directories using the rc.conf knobs (ie: ldconfig_paths="/usr/lib/compat /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/local/lib /usr/local/lib/compat/pkg"). The only time I've had to resort to symlink hackery is when I'm doing something I shouldn't like bringing a foreign binary in that's linked against a different version of some shared lib. Symlink to the one I've got, whoo! >> I can find no documentation explaining when ldconfig descends into >> subdirectories and when it does not.

In the main host I see "/usr/local/lib" set in ldconfig_paths, and I see libs that live in subdirectories in "ldconfig -r" output. Oh, hold up... I'm onto something. In a fresh jail I installed the mysql client. "ldconfig -r" shows the libs, and they live in /usr/local/lib/mysql. The install did not add anything to rc.conf. I do see that the installer ran "ldconfig -m /usr/local/lib/mysql". I also see a file that contains the string "/usr/local/lib/mysql" was added to the /usr/local/libdata/ldconfig directory. Never seen that directory before, don't see it referenced in /etc/rc.d/ldconfig. Surely the answer is near, something scans that directory at startup and sets additional paths for ldconfig...

Puppet is a model-driven open source framework designed to efficiently manage data center infrastructure. It's the sysadmin's best friend, reducing error counts and downtime, saving countless hours and providing significantly higher service quality. Puppet lets sysadmins spend less time on mundane tasks and instead focus on managing their infrastructure as a whole. System administrators have long written custom scripts and tools to help automate common tasks such as configuration management and system updates. But as networks scale and reach outside the corporate firewall, custom tools become yet another management headache. The benefits of automated infrastructure go beyond policy-enforced consistency and auditing. In conjunction with virtualizaton, the ability to reliably create new systems running consistent services creates auto-scaling applications as well as test systems identical to production environments. Puppet abstracts the system from the system administration, providing developers and system administrators with a simple service- based policy framework that allows for more consistent, transparent and flexible systems. Puppet is currently in use at many organizations, large and small, including: Google, Yahoo, and RedHat.

It should use the first IP address you specify for the jail as the default IP for any outgoing connections that are not on a directly accessible network. -- John Baldwin From bcully at gmail.com Mon Nov 30 10:42:14 2009 From: bcully at gmail.com (Brian Cully) Date: Mon, 30 Nov 2009 10:42:14 -0500 Subject: [nycbug-talk] FreeBSD jail source IPs In-Reply-To: <200911300956.21504.jhb@freebsd.org> References: <200911300956.21504.jhb@freebsd.org> Message-ID: <57BD3061-B915-48FB-B946-99E025DB0A0A@gmail.com> On 30-Nov-2009, at 09:56, John Baldwin wrote: > On Saturday 28 November 2009 2:55:46 am Charles Sprickman wrote: >> Howdy, >> >> Quick one...

This can be controlled in code by binding to a port and IP address, then using that socket to send your data. Some programs have options for this for various reasons. -bjc From george at ceetonetechnology.com Mon Nov 30 17:45:14 2009 From: george at ceetonetechnology.com (George Rosamond) Date: Mon, 30 Nov 2009 17:45:14 -0500 Subject: [nycbug-talk] [Fwd: NYC*BUG Wednesday, and more] Message-ID: <4B144AFA.1010508@ceetonetechnology.com> Announce list email as follows below. . . Please note we are looking for a couple of more individuals to present for Wednesday. * * * * This week's NYC*BUG meeting is Wednesday. We still have space for another speaker or two. Please contact admin@ offlist. December 02, 2009, Wednesday Holiday Meeting: Your Tips as Presents 6:45 pm, Suspenders Restaurant December`s meeting will be an opportunity for an array of people to illustrate their Unix hacks. In August, Dru Lavigne started a thread (http://lists.nycbug.org/pipermail/talk/2009-August/012665.html) on NYCBUG`s talk about "fave BSD tips/tricks?" that brought out some good discussion. We see this meeting as a follow-up, and an opportunity to give your hacks "back to the community" as a holiday gift. Please submit your one page PDF to admin@, with one, two, or even three simple tips. It might be simple and seemingly stupid, but it could save a few minutes a day for another developer or sysadmin in the meeting. It could be a creatively piped set of commands, or a simple script that you run through periodic to prevent headaches. The field is wide open. We will schedule a handful of ten minute or so speakers, and let the crowd take it from there. * * * * The BSD Certification Group's Jobs Task Analysis survey is open until midnight tonight. We strongly recommend you assist the survey, as it will help shape the next BSD Certification exam and provide some very useful raw data to the community. http://surveys.bsdcertification.org/phpESP/public/survey.php?name=BSDP01_en * * * * USENIX has posted a number of their upcoming events for 2010 in our "Events & Cons" section on NYCBUG.org. We strongly recommend that you look at the listing and continue to support USENIX, who are not only a vital part of the Unix community, but also have generously supported NYC*BUG for a long while. -------------- next part -------------- An embedded message was scrubbed...
