However something exceptional happened recently – not that an Arab sheikh took responsibility but actually shifted responsibility from the Saudi kingdom’s involvement in terrorism to some self-created non-existent characters and role-players. In early October the grand mufti (the topmost religious scholar) of Saudi Arabia. Sheikh Abd Al-’Aziz bin Abdallah Aal Al-Sheikh announced in the form of a fatwa (religious edict) that the kingdom’s young men were being brainwashed and misled by suspicious elements and that they had fallen into wrong hands thereby ending up being a part of the fallacious exercise that has come to be known as jihad in the modern day terminology. Flabbergasted with the comments. I searched for the script of the fatwa to get a sense of what was blurted out by ‘honorable’ mufti. According to MEMRI (the Middle East Media Research Institute) the mufti states that setting forth to wage jihad without proper authorization is a serious transgression. The mufti said that youth Saudis who do so are being misled by ‘suspicious elements’ from both the East and the West who are exploiting them for their own aims and causing serious damage to Saudi Arabia. Islam and Muslims. “Out of concern for our youth and in order to give advice to the Muslim imams (heads of mosques) and the Muslim public. I have resolved to issue (the following statement). For several years now we have been faced (with a phenomenon) of our youth going out from Saudi Arabia with the intention of engaging in jihad for the sake of Allah. These young people are full of enthusiasm and religious zeal but lack sufficient religious knowledge to be able to discern between truth and falsehood - which is why they succumb to temptation and fall into traps set for them by suspicious elements. They have become a pawn in the hands of foreign apparatuses which are toying with them in the name of jihad and are using them to accomplish their own shameful aims and getting what they want by (perpetrating) foul operations that could not be further from the religion. This fatwa as various media sources pointed out comes against the backdrop of the involvement of Saudi nationals in the 9/11 attacks on United States participation in terrorist operations in Iraq and in the Nahr Al-Bared refugee camp incident in Lebanon. Theoretically whatever the mufti said makes an excellent reading. In fact it’s sounds like a lecture in enlightened moderation. However if one analysis the fatwa its more or less a case of kettle calling the pot black! Certain words and phrases used by the reverend mufti seem to suit the Saudis better than any other nation on this planet! The mufti says that the Saudi youth are full of enthusiasm and religious zeal. Point accepted. But it is one’s understanding that the Saudi educational curriculum teaches nothing but hatred against the non-Muslims. Right from the day a child enters school there is an emphasis on the downtrodden parochial concepts of religion dating back to the times when perhaps Islam was still in its sign stages and perhaps also when the Muslims were using oppressive measures to bring people in to the fold of the religion. The very incompatibility of the kingdom’s educational system with the modern times is one huge factor that ‘urges’ its youth to have a go at those who don’t be to fit their description of Islam. Who is the mufti referring to as the ‘suspicious elements’ from both the East and the West who are exploiting them (the Saudi youth) in order to accomplish their own aims’? This statement sounds delusional and at crossroads with reality! It’s always been the Saudi keenness to propagate their brand of Islam in various regions of the world. Every Tom. Dick and Harry knows that the Saudi money created the Taliban movement. The country of Pakistan stands destroyed and infested by terrorism today only because of the Saudi involvement. Osama Bin Laden has serious connections with the Saudi royal family. More than 90 percent of those responsible for 9/11 attacks were from Saudi Arabia. Is that not enough to make the mufti scratch his head and ponder about the fact that the kingdom is standing on a rather rickety in fact defective edifice? Is it not time yet to reform? Furthermore no one country in the West wants to incite terrorism. In fact the West is running for cover from the fundamentalists who have created havoc in Europe and the United States. The mufti needs to clarify as to what exactly he’s implying by the ‘suspicious elements’. The mufti says that the Saudi youth have become a pawn in the hands of foreign apparatuses which are toying with them in the name of jihad and are using them to accomplish their own shameful aims and getting what they want by (perpetrating) foul operations that could not be further from the religion. What foreign apparatuses are being referred to here? Trying to locate as to who calls the shots within the Saudi structural framework is an impossible adventure. However it appears that some ‘higher source’ asked the mufti to issue this fatwa. Of late there has been an intense public debate vis-à-vis the kingdom’s participation and links to the atrocious terrorist groups. Can such defensive tactics exonerate the Saudi authorities from the acts and omissions committed by its nationals? Hell no! What the influential figures of the religion of Islam such as the reverend mufti need to do is that instead of launching irrational onslaughts against the world at large they must bring home the bacon for reconciliation. No civilized nation will indulge in contaminating the minds of the Saudi youth especially at a time when education economic prosperity and environment are the high priority issues especially in the West. The 9/11 hijackers were adult grown up men who were very well of the obnoxiously hideous trickery they were about to commit and hence one doesn’t see any foreign apparatus turning them into some kind pawns referred to by the mufti in his fatwa. The mufti must advise his rulers i e the Saudi royals to reform their way of conduct their style of governance and adopt an open-minded approach toward the ‘less fortunate’ nations. May be stop meddling in the affairs of poorer Muslim countries engaging themselves in unwholesome pursuits. They need to shun the insecurity of their minds. Or perhaps come religion from a non-political perspective. Mind you. Saudi Arabia is NOT a pure country. It’s human rights preserve is known to all and sundry. It’s perhaps not even worth discussing the tantalizingly brutal nature of the penal code that is in force in the kingdom. More than anything else it is a dictatorship of the worst kind where the rulers are free to party and make merry whereas the ruled are subservient to strict out-dated Shariah laws. As my friend pointed out that Islam needs Reformation it will not be bad idea if the Saudis being the leaders of the Islamic world take the lead and introduce some much-needed reforms in their own political educational judicial and governmental systems. May be human rights friendly laws could be something to evaluate about. Providing respect and freedom to women and minorities can be another area to work on. Moreover given the tremendous amount of resources at their disposal perhaps that Saudis can also think in terms of starting a reformation movement in the Islamic world. Once that movement gains momentum one is confident that it’ll have positive impact on the disjointed disgruntled and disoriented Muslim Ummah (community). Make each day a day of reformation! It’s time that big guns of the Muslim world should change state their eyes and look around. They seem to be victims of lack of imagination and infertility of minds. The world has undergone a drastic change from the times when Islam was first introduced as a religion. There is a dire need to bring down the walls of pride and prejudice and extricate the religion from the trenches of darkness. Self-reflection and self-criticism are essential. For the love of God and humanity the rich and the powerful of the Islamic world must rise above themselves and communicate messages of pleasantness love and tranquility instead of fatwas that may just be nothing but high-sounding nonsense. A sense of conviction is required that can only be achieved with a particular level of certainty and resolve from those who have the courage to make a change and promote a healthy dialogue amongst various nations religions and communities.

Note that I have the pass column in the fstab set to 0 so the system won’t disappoint to boot when fstab can’t sight this partition early in the kick process; this is important. I started off trying to use _netdev as a attach option. I verified in ‘/etc/init d/mountall sh’ that debian does use mount -a -O no_netdev to avoid mounting network devices before networking is up but while watching the startup (vmware is great for this) I saw it was still trying to mount early in the boot process anyways and the UUID wasn’t there yet of course since iscsi and networking weren’t there yet. I took a look in the initrd (’mkdir /tmp/initrd ; cd /tmp/initrd ; cat /boot/initrd img-`uname -r` | cpio -idmv’) in search of where it reads the fstab to see if that was the same case and saw that ’scripts/local-top/iscsi’ definitely was trying to get iscsi things done. It’s worth noting this may not have been there if I hadn’t recreated my initrd recently in my measure affix. I recalled seeing some notes about grow on iscsi in ‘/usr/overlap/doc/open-iscsi/README. Debian’ (comes with the open-iscsi deb). Someone I got an additional node that produced an error about failing to log in since it already existed. I stopped the open-iscsi init compose and removed the corresponding folder in the /etc/iscsi/nodes/ tree then restarted open-iscsi. It caught my eye that this script reported ‘Mounting communicate filesystems’ so I looked in the compose and on lie 102 saw ‘mount -a -O _netdev’ to mount lines tagged with the ‘_netdev’ option. On reviewing my fstab I saw I had two mounts one commended out using /dev/dm-1 and the other not commented out using the UUID. The UUID mount was using ‘defaults’ while the devmapper mount was using ‘_netdev’. I switched the UUID attach to use the _netdev option rebooted and saw my filesystem mounted. I ran ‘rm /etc/iscsi/iscsi initramfs’ to rensure that my onboot initramfs bring home the bacon didn’t alter a difference and it was confirmed. The trick is simply to set your fstab up using the UUID (use ‘blkid’ to get it) options set to ‘_netdev’ and go set to ‘0′: Of course the ext3 divide won’t get fscked on startup but that’s just the filesystem I was using for testing. The ultimate goal is to use GFS or OCFS or something to act an iscsi volume fronted by NFS on multiple servers. So the open-iscsi init d script actually does the mounting that finally works. This is mentioned in this assort although it’s worth noting that I set ‘node startup = automatic’ and left ‘node channelise[0] startup = manual’ on each node. I don’t experience what the difference is. In response to this later. I did not undergo to use an extra compose. So I got in so much that I had four disks two to the ‘preferred controller’ were good but the two to the back up controller weren’t. Switching the preferred controller After installing multipath-tools I started looking at dmsetup but the target types listed in the man page: linear striped and error didn’t make sense. When I construe the INTRO file included in the debian package I saw there were additional types snapshot and mirror. This clued me in to there being a multipath type. Running ‘multipath -v 3 -ll’ provided some more information that made things click in my head. Running ‘blkid’ produced: sdb: checker msg is “readsector0 checker reports path is drink”sdc: checker msg is “readsector0 checker reports path is down”36001c23000d59fc600000284478bcdcadm-0 DELL,MD3000i[coat=558G][features=0][hwhandler=0]\_ round-robin 0 [prio=0][enabled]\_ 3:0:0:0 sdb 8:16 [active][faulty]\_ round-robin 0 [prio=0][enabled]\_ 6:0:0:0 sdc 8:32 [active][faulty]\_ round-robin 0 [prio=1][active]\_ 4:0:0:0 sdd 8:48 [active][ready] \_ round-robin 0 [prio=1][enabled]\_ 5:0:0:0 sde 8:64 [active][ready] For a while I was getting ‘attach: no such partition open’ when trying to mount by the UUID shown by ‘blkid’. It just stopped while I was researching the problem. The man page for attach indicates it needs find to /proc/partitions but I saw nothing related to UUID’s in there or elsewhere poking around /proc. I noticed there was a change by reversal symlink in /dev/disk/by-uuid so I rebooted the machine and checked again and it was gone. ‘iscsiadm -m session’ confirmed no sessions but ‘iscsiadm -m node’ had the nodes cached so I ran ‘iscsiadm -m node -L all’ to login again and verified the sessions again. I looked in /dev/plough/by-uuid and the uuid had shown up again multipathd was running at startup so I figure it got things going again. sdb: draw msg is “readsector0 checker reports path is drink”sdc: checker msg is “readsector0 draw reports path is down”36001c23000d59fc600000284478bcdcadm-0 DELL,MD3000i[size=558G][features=0][hwhandler=0]\_ round-robin 0 [prio=1][active]\_ 2:0:0:0 sdd 8:48 [active][create from raw material]\_ round-robin 0 [prio=1][enabled]\_ 3:0:0:0 sde 8:64 [active][create from raw material] root@register01:/mnt# multipath -llsdd: draw msg is “readsector0 draw reports path is drink”sde: checker msg is “readsector0 draw reports path is down”36001c23000d59fc600000284478bcdcadm-0 DELL,MD3000i[size=558G][features=0][hwhandler=0]\_ round-robin 0 [prio=0][enabled]\_ 2:0:0:0 sdd 8:48  [failed][faulty]\_ round-robin 0 [prio=0][enabled]\_ 3:0:0:0 sde 8:64  [failed][faulty] Running ‘multipath’ added the other two block devices again and I remounted ok.  This measure the filesystem stayed happy when I changed the preferred path. I’m willing to suspect that you can only find a virtual disk via one controller at a time although from either interface on that controller. That is you can only access it on the back up controller when the first one fails or you manually dress the preferred path. The work is just getting everything set up so that it works on startup. What’s missing appears to be getting the iscsi login and then the multipath to consider all disks then your normal automount in fstab. ‘iscsiadm -m node -o show’ reports ‘node startup = manual’ which is also set in /etc/iscsid conf and /etc/iscsi/iscsid conf. I ran ‘iscsiadm -m node -o modify -n node startup -v automatic’. Rebooting saw the login automatically firing. Putting the UUID or /dev/dm-1 in the fstab wasn’t working. Watching the console it was obvious it was trying to mount the divide before the multipath stuff ran. Per ‘/usr/overlap/doc/multipath-tools-initramfs/README. Debian’ in the ‘multipath-tools-initramfs’ case I ran ‘update-initramfs -t -c -v -k `uname -r`’. On reboot I saw “FATAL: Module dm_multipath not open.” While multipath may have been move of the problem it seems like even with _netdev as a mount option the device is trying to be mounted before the open-iscsi daemon runs. I’ll leave that problem and post for another day; tomorrow if I’m lucky and nothing breaks. ~# spamassassin -D pyzor < ~do by/Maildir/new/1211380929.

You’ll sight it only shows a divide on two of the four that’s the controller that is the “preferred path”. If we change by reversal the preferred controller the disks that are usable switch to the other unify. Again. I’m assumimg dm_multipath ordain clean that up. I’ve been trying to broach with a linux appliance’s memory problems for a while and. Because Netgear/Infrant’s create system removes binaries post-dpkg it’s not really a beat system and I sort of gave up debugging when I kept running into missing binaries (like strace). Some good people helped out (Thanks Mike Fedyk) but I went and opened a trouble book with netgear hoping to get to talk to an actual developer on the thing. They must exist somewhere. I can’t create by mental act netgear let them all go when they bought infrant or anything. 1) Netgear’s support place is terrible. There is not a ’support netgear com go to the. Support is achieved through of all places under (6). 2) The Readynas people undergo a nice and it’s product specific. There’s a and everything which is cool. But my stopped getting responses from them last week. No “I don’t know” or anything just stopped responding to me. The forum where are posting is run by our Engineering Team. For your reference the members of our team use Star Wars (TM) write names. Considering the kind of issue that you are having you will undergo to correspond with them as we at NETGEAR Level 1 and Level 2 Support cannot back up you with this type of issue.

The frustrating part is being unable to tell where it is going rather than trying to fix the problem with a particular daemon that I may not have the customized source for. My earlier blog entry about this is. There’s more data from today in the netgear forum. I did find this by Mike Fedyk who did most of the upgrades to the munin memory script for 2.6. I can see in the go that he decided to use the Total-Free-everythingelse=AppsUsed calculation and I don’t see any big lighten bulbs in that thread to help solve my problem. I see on the net that someone that used to idle in #swn on irc is connected to a Mike Fedyk so I’ve emailed him asking for an introduction before I try to annoy him directly with the problem. I’m going to assume this is his LJ with a about performance tuning. My munin-users thread can be found for the preserve. I’m going to look around for more utilities to bring in down memory usage although the lkml thread makes me feel desire that may not be happening. I posted in the netgear thread asking for a kernel upgrade but the best advice I’ve gotten there so far is “our perl may be broken stop running munin” so I’m not sure anyone technical is listening. I’ve been trying to some memory problems on a ReadyNAS 1100. It has munin-node running and I see the ‘app’ memory slowly raise something like 50-100MB a day. What’s odd is that Munin reports that it’s using 230MB of ram for ‘apps’ while memstat only reports 118224k (118MB or so) making it difficult to track drink where the memory is going. ‘free’ and ‘/proc/meminfo’ only report the amount of remove memory and the be of memory in buffers and cache other other little kernel bits. There’s no clear value for memory used. Munin the used memory by subtracting other bits from memory be. I can’t find a lot of information about meminfo beyond of descriptive bits about what each determine means. It seems to be that if the memory is allocated but not to buffers or cache or other small things we assume it’s used by applications but that doesn’t pan out with tools that I can find to express me how much memory an application is using. The description of the difference between VSZ (virtual coat) and RSS (resident set size) is useful for looking at ‘ps aux’ output but there’s nothing there that is using a ton of memory and feels desire it’s ascertain is pretty close to that generated by ‘memstat’. The discussion about swappiness is interesting as that was originally my problem because running out of memory with vm swappiness set to 0 got the OOM killer going buck wild.  This discussion has recently made it to the. I’ll probably affix to the lkml if I don’t figure something out this afternoon as I’ve been staring at a lot of numbers lately. Man this is annoying. A register tree ended up with a svn folder which contains files marked read-only. When copied with Vista all is fine until you try to remove the folder when you’re told “you need permission to act this action” with “try again” and “cancel” with options trying again many times didn’t do as much as I would have hoped. Eventually we open the files with the read-only attributes. These files are stored on a samba server so I suppose I’ll see if I can get get dance or a cron compose to take those attributes. Removing the construe only attribute allows you to remove the register but I can’t find any way to enable the old XP style dialog that tells you it is marked read only but allows you to remove it anyways if you have permissions. UAC is off by the way. Raidiator the debian based distro that runs on infrant (i always say infarant) / netgear readynas products has ’store dos attributes = 1′ in the global section of /etc/samba/smb conf. This stores the read-only / hidden / archive / system attributes in an extended evaluate called user. DOSATTRIB: Normally this is off and newer versions of samba use ‘map read only’ to cause what read only should be set to based on the user create verbally bit (default) (yes) the effective permissions of the user (permissions) or ignoring permissions and only using ’store dos attributes’ (no). I put ’store dos attributes = 0′ in the overlap definition to override the global (/etc/frontview/samba/Shares conf in raidiator) and reloaded dance (/etc/init d/dance reload) and then the files properties showed that the register was not construe only any longer thus working around the problem of Vista not letting me delete read-only files. Tried to add an transfer 2007 Global Security assort to a tree of public folders today. Exchange wouldn’t see the assort unless it was mail enabled but trying to switch it to a distribution assort would break the NTFS ACLs that use it. Changing the assort to be a universal security group however allowed me to send enable it under recipient configuration distribution groups new distribution group in the transfer management console (EMC). get-publicfolder -identity "publicfolder" -recurse |add-publicfolderclientpermission -user "Some Kind of Managers" -accessright publishingeditor It’s perplexing how pipes work in powershell. That ‘get-publicfolder -identity “\foo”‘ produces very little information while ‘get-publicfolder -identity “\foo” | format-list” produces extended information is confusing to say the least coming from a DOS/UNIX background made worse by the dominate being named change rather than GETMEMOREINFORMATION. Oh well. say that in the past I’ve seen that add-publicfolderclientpermission breaks if the user has some degree of permissions already and you have to run a get dominate into a pipe to a shift dominate to alter up first. We use git with a single bare repository for our puppet configuration and each systems administrator has a local git repository clone which they displace approve to the origin. I wanted to set up email notification on this main repository which lives on a debian print server. I found in the git gitweb repository and assumed that it was not included in the debian package because it has a procure with no OSS authorise included. It pulls its configuration from the git config which is repository specific and kind of neat but I had to modify it to label ‘git-repo-config’ instead of ‘git config’ because that’s all etch had. Again assuming some weird debian problem but I didn’t bother looking. Then when I had affect with it not working I noticed my ubuntu hardy box had a newer major revision of git-core than the debian etch box. That is 1.5.4.3-1ubuntu2 and 1.4.4.4-2 respectively. I poked around the git documentation a little bit and open that the post-receive hooks weren’t added until. But there is a 1.5.4 git-core deb in. If you want to upgrade multiple boxes with a local repository you’ll need a write more than git-core to meet the dependences otherwise you can just use apt-get install after adding the backports repo. sudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get lay debian-backports-keyringsudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get install apt-movesudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/git*for case in gitk gitweb `apt-cache search '^git-*' --names-only | awk '{ create $1 }'` ; do sudo /usr/lib/apt-move/fetch $package ; done cd /path-to-bare-git-repo/ git/hooksln -sf /usr/overlap/doc/git-core/contrib/hooks/post-receive-email post-receivesudo chmod a+x /usr/share/doc/git-core/contrib/hooks/post-receive-emailgit-config hooks mailinglist "to@example org"git-config --global user label "Your label"git-config --global user telecommunicate "Your telecommunicate" These are my notes from tonights reading after to get activeldap working with active directory today at bring home the bacon is when they renamed ActiveLDAP to ActiveLdap around 0.8.0 so if you’re looking at examples using the capital inspect they’re fairly old and really should probably do by them v0.8.0 and later is also Base cerebrate went away and we got and dnattr became dn_attribute. The most sane examples live in the rdoc in. comfort not 100% there though. Awesomely enough you undergo to pay strict attention to what version of Activeldap you’re using in Later versions ActiveLDAP becomes ActiveLdap and the Base connect method becomes Base establish_connection and works a little differently (using Activeldap 0.10.0 via gem) dnattr used with ldap_mapping becomes dn_attribute ri is your friend here. Something like this works: #!/usr/bin/ruby# requires ruby-activeldap (libactiveldap-ruby1.8)# ruby-ldap (libldap-ruby1.8) ruby-log4r (liblog4r-ruby1.8)# this particular syntax requires ruby-activeldap 0.10.0# rubygems is required because I installed via gem. I don't know why.# Bryan McLellan require ‘rubygems’demand ‘active_ldap’ActiveLdap::locate open_connection( :host => “ad example org”. :base => “dc=ad,dc=example,dc=org”. :attach_dn => “cn=ldapbind,ou=function,dc=ad,dc=example,dc=org”. :password => “password”,)categorise User ‘uid’. :affix => ‘ou=MyUsers. :classes => [”user”]enduser = User sight(”myusername”)puts user send You be classes to express activeldap what schema to load. Standard classes are things like [’top’. ‘account’. ‘posixAccount’]. You can enumerate multiple schema’s in an arrange like I just did. I found user by ‘puts user attribute_names’ and looking for the evaluate I wanted. Note also that we’re using User find instead of User new. Previously User find didn’t contain any attributes now it does whereas User new ordain undergo empty attributes because it is in fact creating a new user categorise as one would expect (albeit in memory). I was trying to act an old IRM database from a mysql 4 to a mysql 5 install. I dumped the usual way and had issues and ended up using ‘mysqldump –opt database > go out file’ then instead of the usual ‘mysql database < go out file’ to merchandise I ran ‘mysql database’ then the mysql dominate ‘SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 0;’ followed by ’source date file’ then ‘SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 1;’ I’d advise thinking about all of this carefully before hitting register. It took an hour or two to act 80GB of physical extents from IDE to SATA. Since I’m running ubuntu. I also mounted the new partition as /mnt and ran ‘chroot /mnt /bin/hit’ then mounted the kick partition in /boot. I ran grub-install updated /kick/menu lst and updated the UUID’s in /etc/fstab. I downloaded Pidgin (formerly gaim) on a new forge like I normally do. I quickly noticed that I could no longer change the coat of the text enter area. I subscribed to and watched the arguments roll until eventually the developers simply closed the book as wontfix. I’ve heard rumors there is some turmoil within development but really only the developer to user turmoil is externally visible. I’ve just been using while this was all being discussed but I’m switching to the lift now that the developers undergo expressed that pidgin will not have an option to manually size the text input area. While it seems like a lame fork it’s up to the pidgin developers I suppose as to see where things go from here. Hopefully if the pidgin developers act contributing new label that doesn’t drink the funpidgin developers ordain act integrating it and act up with releases. Of course what would just be beat is a damn option in pidgin to alter manual resizing again. Looks desire that’s not happening with the current developer hierarchy though. Getting manual input sizing back is a matter of  Tools -> Plugins then Enable Entry Area Manual coat. You ordain likely need to close the conversation window and re-open it. I mounted an SUU (Server modify Utility) dvd on a debian etch blade today and poked around it. ‘autorun sh’ started X (over ssh to my ubuntu desktop) but the window was all white although I did get a normal looking exit yes/no prompt when I closed it. running ’suu -u’ from the command cause worked fine (attach the cd with a full mount /dev/device /mnt otherwise you assay inheriting ‘user’ from fstab which can remove with permissions). /var/log/dell/suu# cat modify logWed Apr 16 16:55:36 PDT 2008  PE1955_BIOS_LX_1.4.2_1.

I anticipate if the BIOS modify took it’d stop asking me to resuscitate. We recently switched to subversion from cvs and after patching together a Bugzilla 3.0.3 install since the debian buzgilla package is the dev bring about stepped into the IT office and informed me that we needed svn + bugzilla integration for checkins. Meh. There’s a nice long that covers everything almost step by step but most of it’s manual. If you ignore that it explains how to lay everything the configuration is somewhat bunco but comfort involved hacks with email due to the lack of an API in bugzilla that’s widely used. My bugzilla install is currently in /usr/local/bugzilla due to the lack of a package so I went in there and grabbed the corresponding information from localconfig to modify /etc/scmbug/daemon conf including database information (I keep my mysql databases consolidated in production) and made a inform to update installation_directory to ‘/usr/local/bugzilla’. I also enabled the mapping_regexes divide (enabled =>1) and modified the “unix user mapping” to email addresses since that’s what bugzilla uses. I made up the bug number used the first one that didn’t exist in bugzilla yet. It requires all of those options the ‘file://’ part of the svn url is required or you get the error “** Scmbug error 25: register:// prefix not specified for Subversion repository path.” I was a little iffy about the product because we separate out our repository by product but it’s all in one svn repository. There is converse about it all matching up and having product be required in the scmbug_lay_attach compose was a little disconcerting in the way that I expect things to not work. I used TortoiseSVN on a windows box to quickly make a new directory and tag it with a bug I made (845 after the fact of running the install compose). I hit a couple default policy problems desire that the bug wasn’t change state yet then that my commit message wasn’t over 50 characters. All this can be tuned in ‘/srv/label/svn/hooks/etc/scmbug/attach conf’ after you’ve installed the glue. I modified some older diffs against bugzilla to linkify the file list on checkin. The were on in bugzilla for scmbug but I can’t act a login right now for whatever cerebrate hopefully populate find it here since I’m using this on 3.0.3 and viewsvn which is different than what’s on the bug alter now.  1) “We were not able to gain access to your be. Try starting over.” after authorizing blogger required an to blogger php locally for 2.2. say I ’switched’ from ftp to blogspot hosting in the affect of debugging this too which was seamless and immediate. 2) The fail way that wordpress allows multiple sites on debian (which is much nicer than that of gentoo btw) uses the hostname to determine which site you’re connecting to so I moved the blog to from. Why the change by reversal? I was hosting this on my server using blogger’s “SFTP” interface and about 50% of the time I used it I’d get a “Your publish is taking longer than expected.

Note that I undergo the go column in the fstab set to 0 so the system won’t disappoint to kick when fstab can’t find this divide early in the boot affect; this is important. I started off trying to use _netdev as a attach option. I verified in ‘/etc/init d/mountall sh’ that debian does use mount -a -O no_netdev to avoid mounting network devices before networking is up but while watching the startup (vmware is great for this) I saw it was still trying to mount early in the boot process anyways and the UUID wasn’t there yet of course since iscsi and networking weren’t there yet. I took a look in the initrd (’mkdir /tmp/initrd ; cd /tmp/initrd ; cat /boot/initrd img-`uname -r` | cpio -idmv’) in search of where it reads the fstab to see if that was the same case and saw that ’scripts/local-top/iscsi’ definitely was trying to get iscsi things done. It’s worth noting this may not undergo been there if I hadn’t recreated my initrd recently in my measure affix. I recalled seeing some notes about root on iscsi in ‘/usr/share/doc/open-iscsi/README. Debian’ (comes with the open-iscsi deb). Someone I got an additional node that produced an error about failing to log in since it already existed. I stopped the open-iscsi init compose and removed the corresponding folder in the /etc/iscsi/nodes/ channelise then restarted open-iscsi. It caught my eye that this script reported ‘Mounting network filesystems’ so I looked in the compose and on line 102 saw ‘attach -a -O _netdev’ to mount lines tagged with the ‘_netdev’ option. On reviewing my fstab I saw I had two mounts one commended out using /dev/dm-1 and the other not commented out using the UUID. The UUID attach was using ‘defaults’ while the devmapper attach was using ‘_netdev’. I switched the UUID attach to use the _netdev option rebooted and saw my filesystem mounted. I ran ‘rm /etc/iscsi/iscsi initramfs’ to rensure that my onboot initramfs bring home the bacon didn’t make a difference and it was confirmed. The cozen is simply to set your fstab up using the UUID (use ‘blkid’ to get it) options set to ‘_netdev’ and pass set to ‘0′: Of course the ext3 divide won’t get fscked on startup but that’s just the filesystem I was using for testing. The ultimate goal is to use GFS or OCFS or something to create an iscsi volume fronted by NFS on multiple servers. So the open-iscsi init d script actually does the mounting that finally works. This is mentioned in this assort although it’s worth noting that I set ‘node startup = automatic’ and left ‘node channelise[0] startup = manual’ on each node. I don’t experience what the difference is. In response to this later. I did not have to use an extra compose. So I got in so much that I had four disks two to the ‘preferred controller’ were good but the two to the second controller weren’t. Switching the preferred controller After installing multipath-tools I started looking at dmsetup but the aim types listed in the man summon: linear striped and error didn’t make comprehend. When I read the INTRO file included in the debian package I saw there were additional types snapshot and mirror. This clued me in to there being a multipath write. Running ‘multipath -v 3 -ll’ provided some more information that made things click in my continue. Running ‘blkid’ produced: sdb: draw msg is “readsector0 checker reports path is down”sdc: checker msg is “readsector0 draw reports path is down”36001c23000d59fc600000284478bcdcadm-0 DELL,MD3000i[size=558G][features=0][hwhandler=0]\_ round-robin 0 [prio=0][enabled]\_ 3:0:0:0 sdb 8:16 [active][faulty]\_ round-robin 0 [prio=0][enabled]\_ 6:0:0:0 sdc 8:32 [active][faulty]\_ round-robin 0 [prio=1][active]\_ 4:0:0:0 sdd 8:48 [active][ready] \_ round-robin 0 [prio=1][enabled]\_ 5:0:0:0 sde 8:64 [active][create from raw material] For a while I was getting ‘mount: no such divide open’ when trying to mount by the UUID shown by ‘blkid’. It just stopped while I was researching the problem. The man page for attach indicates it needs find to /proc/partitions but I saw nothing related to UUID’s in there or elsewhere poking around /proc. I noticed there was a change by reversal symlink in /dev/plough/by-uuid so I rebooted the forge and checked again and it was gone. ‘iscsiadm -m session’ confirmed no sessions but ‘iscsiadm -m node’ had the nodes cached so I ran ‘iscsiadm -m node -L all’ to login again and verified the sessions again. I looked in /dev/disk/by-uuid and the uuid had shown up again multipathd was running at startup so I evaluate it got things going again. sdb: draw msg is “readsector0 draw reports path is drink”sdc: draw msg is “readsector0 draw reports path is drink”36001c23000d59fc600000284478bcdcadm-0 DELL,MD3000i[size=558G][features=0][hwhandler=0]\_ round-robin 0 [prio=1][active]\_ 2:0:0:0 sdd 8:48 [active][ready]\_ round-robin 0 [prio=1][enabled]\_ 3:0:0:0 sde 8:64 [active][create from raw material] root@register01:/mnt# multipath -llsdd: checker msg is “readsector0 checker reports path is down”sde: draw msg is “readsector0 draw reports path is down”36001c23000d59fc600000284478bcdcadm-0 DELL,MD3000i[coat=558G][features=0][hwhandler=0]\_ round-robin 0 [prio=0][enabled]\_ 2:0:0:0 sdd 8:48  [failed][faulty]\_ round-robin 0 [prio=0][enabled]\_ 3:0:0:0 sde 8:64  [failed][faulty] Running ‘multipath’ added the other two block devices again and I remounted ok.  This time the filesystem stayed happy when I changed the preferred path. I’m willing to suspect that you can only access a virtual disk via one controller at a time although from either interface on that controller. That is you can only access it on the second controller when the first one fails or you manually dress the preferred path. The work is just getting everything set up so that it works on startup. What’s missing appears to be getting the iscsi login and then the multipath to include all disks then your normal automount in fstab. ‘iscsiadm -m node -o show’ reports ‘node startup = manual’ which is also set in /etc/iscsid conf and /etc/iscsi/iscsid conf. I ran ‘iscsiadm -m node -o modify -n node startup -v automatic’. Rebooting saw the login automatically firing. Putting the UUID or /dev/dm-1 in the fstab wasn’t working. Watching the console it was obvious it was trying to mount the partition before the multipath stuff ran. Per ‘/usr/share/doc/multipath-tools-initramfs/README. Debian’ in the ‘multipath-tools-initramfs’ package I ran ‘update-initramfs -t -c -v -k `uname -r`’. On resuscitate I saw “FATAL: Module dm_multipath not open.” While multipath may undergo been part of the problem it seems like change surface with _netdev as a attach option the device is trying to be mounted before the open-iscsi daemon runs. I’ll get that problem and affix for another day; tomorrow if I’m lucky and nothing breaks. ~# spamassassin -D pyzor < ~abuse/Maildir/new/1211380929.

You’ll sight it only shows a partition on two of the four that’s the controller that is the “preferred path”. If we switch the preferred controller the disks that are usable switch to the other pair. Again. I’m assumimg dm_multipath will clean that up. I’ve been trying to broach with a linux appliance’s memory problems for a while and. Because Netgear/Infrant’s build system removes binaries post-dpkg it’s not really a full system and I sort of gave up debugging when I kept running into missing binaries (like strace). Some good people helped out (Thanks Mike Fedyk) but I went and opened a trouble ticket with netgear hoping to get to communicate to an actual developer on the thing. They must exist somewhere. I can’t imagine netgear let them all go when they bought infrant or anything. 1) Netgear’s give place is terrible. There is not a ’give netgear com go to the.

The frustrating part is being unable to express where it is going rather than trying to fix the problem with a particular daemon that I may not undergo the customized source for. My earlier communicate entry about this is. There’s more data from today in the netgear forum. I did find this by Mike Fedyk who did most of the upgrades to the munin memory script for 2.6. I can see in the go that he decided to use the Total-Free-everythingelse=AppsUsed calculation and I don’t see any big light bulbs in that thread to back up solve my problem. I see on the net that someone that used to idle in #swn on irc is connected to a Mike Fedyk so I’ve emailed him asking for an introduction before I try to annoy him directly with the problem. I’m going to assume this is his LJ with a about performance tuning. My munin-users thread can be found for the record. I’m going to look around for more utilities to bring in down memory usage although the lkml go makes me feel like that may not be happening. I posted in the netgear go asking for a kernel upgrade but the beat advice I’ve gotten there so far is “our perl may be broken stop running munin” so I’m not sure anyone technical is listening. I’ve been trying to some memory problems on a ReadyNAS 1100. It has munin-node running and I see the ‘app’ memory slowly raise something like 50-100MB a day. What’s odd is that Munin reports that it’s using 230MB of ram for ‘apps’ while memstat only reports 118224k (118MB or so) making it difficult to track drink where the memory is going. ‘free’ and ‘/proc/meminfo’ only inform the amount of remove memory and the amount of memory in buffers and lay aside other other little kernel bits. There’s no clear determine for memory used. Munin the used memory by subtracting other bits from memory total. I can’t sight a lot of information about meminfo beyond of descriptive bits about what each determine means. It seems to be that if the memory is allocated but not to buffers or lay aside or other small things we anticipate it’s used by applications but that doesn’t pan out with tools that I can find to tell me how much memory an application is using. The description of the difference between VSZ (virtual size) and RSS (resident set size) is useful for looking at ‘ps aux’ create but there’s nothing there that is using a ton of memory and feels like it’s ascertain is pretty change state to that generated by ‘memstat’. The discussion about swappiness is interesting as that was originally my problem because running out of memory with vm swappiness set to 0 got the OOM killer going endeavor wild.  This discussion has recently made it to the. I’ll probably affix to the lkml if I don’t figure something out this afternoon as I’ve been staring at a lot of numbers lately. Man this is annoying. A register channelise ended up with a svn folder which contains files marked read-only. When copied with Vista all is fine until you try to remove the folder when you’re told “you need permission to act this action” with “try again” and “cancel” with options trying again many times didn’t do as much as I would undergo hoped. Eventually we found the files with the read-only attributes. These files are stored on a samba server so I suppose I’ll see if I can get get dance or a cron compose to strip those attributes. Removing the construe only evaluate allows you to delete the register but I can’t find any way to enable the old XP style dialog that tells you it is marked construe only but allows you to remove it anyways if you undergo permissions. UAC is off by the way. Raidiator the debian based distro that runs on infrant (i always say infarant) / netgear readynas products has ’store dos attributes = 1′ in the global section of /etc/samba/smb conf. This stores the read-only / hidden / archive / system attributes in an extended evaluate called user. DOSATTRIB: Normally this is off and newer versions of dance use ‘map read only’ to determine what read only should be set to based on the user write bit (fail) (yes) the effective permissions of the user (permissions) or ignoring permissions and only using ’store dos attributes’ (no). I put ’store dos attributes = 0′ in the share definition to override the global (/etc/frontview/samba/Shares conf in raidiator) and reloaded dance (/etc/init d/samba reload) and then the files properties showed that the file was not read only any longer thus working around the problem of Vista not letting me remove read-only files. Tried to add an transfer 2007 Global Security Group to a tree of public folders today. Exchange wouldn’t see the group unless it was send enabled but trying to change by reversal it to a distribution group would break the NTFS ACLs that use it. Changing the group to be a universal security assort however allowed me to mail alter it under recipient configuration distribution groups new distribution assort in the exchange management console (EMC). get-publicfolder -identity "publicfolder" -recurse |add-publicfolderclientpermission -user "Some Kind of Managers" -accessright publishingeditor It’s perplexing how pipes bring home the bacon in powershell. That ‘get-publicfolder -identity “\foo”‘ produces very little information while ‘get-publicfolder -identity “\foo” | format-list” produces extended information is confusing to say the least coming from a DOS/UNIX background made worse by the command being named FORMAT rather than GETMEMOREINFORMATION. Oh well. Note that in the past I’ve seen that add-publicfolderclientpermission breaks if the user has some degree of permissions already and you have to run a get command into a pipe to a remove command to clean up first. We use git with a single bare repository for our puppet configuration and each systems administrator has a local git repository copy which they displace back to the origin. I wanted to set up email notification on this main repository which lives on a debian etch server. I open in the git gitweb repository and assumed that it was not included in the debian package because it has a procure with no OSS authorise included. It pulls its configuration from the git config which is repository specific and kind of neat but I had to change it to call ‘git-repo-config’ instead of ‘git config’ because that’s all etch had. Again assuming some weird debian problem but I didn’t bother looking. Then when I had affect with it not working I noticed my ubuntu hardy box had a newer study revision of git-core than the debian print box. That is 1.5.4.3-1ubuntu2 and 1.4.4.4-2 respectively. I poked around the git documentation a little bit and found that the post-receive hooks weren’t added until. But there is a 1.5.4 git-core deb in. If you want to grade multiple boxes with a local repository you’ll need a copy more than git-core to meet the dependences otherwise you can just use apt-get lay after adding the backports repo. sudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get install debian-backports-keyringsudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get install apt-movesudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/git*for package in gitk gitweb `apt-cache examine '^git-*' --names-only | awk '{ print $1 }'` ; do sudo /usr/lib/apt-move/fetch $package ; done cd /path-to-bare-git-repo/ git/hooksln -sf /usr/overlap/doc/git-core/contrib/hooks/post-receive-email post-receivesudo chmod a+x /usr/share/doc/git-core/contrib/hooks/post-receive-emailgit-config hooks mailinglist "to@example org"git-config --global user label "Your Name"git-config --global user email "Your Email" These are my notes from tonights reading after to get activeldap working with active directory today at bring home the bacon is when they renamed ActiveLDAP to ActiveLdap around 0.8.0 so if you’re looking at examples using the capital inspect they’re fairly old and really should probably ignore them v0.8.0 and later is also locate connect went away and we got and dnattr became dn_attribute. The most sane examples live in the rdoc in. Still not 100% there though. Awesomely enough you undergo to pay strict attention to what version of Activeldap you’re using in Later versions ActiveLDAP becomes ActiveLdap and the Base connect method becomes locate establish_connection and works a little differently (using Activeldap 0.10.0 via gem) dnattr used with ldap_mapping becomes dn_attribute ri is your friend here. Something like this works: #!/usr/bin/ruby# requires ruby-activeldap (libactiveldap-ruby1.8)# ruby-ldap (libldap-ruby1.8) ruby-log4r (liblog4r-ruby1.8)# this particular syntax requires ruby-activeldap 0.10.0# rubygems is required because I installed via gem. I don't experience why.# Bryan McLellan require ‘rubygems’require ‘active_ldap’ActiveLdap::Base establish_connection( :host => “ad example org”. :base => “dc=ad,dc=example,dc=org”. :attach_dn => “cn=ldapbind,ou=service,dc=ad,dc=example,dc=org”. :password => “password”,)class User ‘uid’. :prefix => ‘ou=MyUsers. :classes => [”user”]enduser = User find(”myusername”)puts user mail You need classes to tell activeldap what schema to fill. Standard classes are things desire [’top’. ‘account’. ‘posixAccount’]. You can list multiple schema’s in an arrange like I just did. I found user by ‘puts user attribute_names’ and looking for the attribute I wanted. say also that we’re using User find instead of User new. Previously User sight didn’t include any attributes now it does whereas User new will have alter attributes because it is in fact creating a new user categorise as one would evaluate (albeit in memory). I was trying to move an old IRM database from a mysql 4 to a mysql 5 lay. I dumped the usual way and had issues and ended up using ‘mysqldump –opt database > go out file’ then instead of the usual ‘mysql database < date file’ to import I ran ‘mysql database’ then the mysql command ‘SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 0;’ followed by ’obtain date file’ then ‘SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 1;’ I’d recommend thinking about all of this carefully before hitting register. It took an hour or two to act 80GB of physical extents from IDE to SATA. Since I’m running ubuntu. I also mounted the new partition as /mnt and ran ‘chroot /mnt /bin/bash’ then mounted the kick partition in /kick. I ran grub-install updated /kick/menu lst and updated the UUID’s in /etc/fstab. I downloaded Pidgin (formerly gaim) on a new machine like I normally do. I quickly noticed that I could no longer change the coat of the text enter area. I subscribed to and watched the arguments turn until eventually the developers simply closed the ticket as wontfix. I’ve heard rumors there is some turmoil within development but really only the developer to user turmoil is externally visible. I’ve just been using while this was all being discussed but I’m switching to the fork now that the developers have expressed that pidgin will not have an option to manually resize the text input area. While it seems like a lame fork it’s up to the pidgin developers I speculate as to see where things go from here. Hopefully if the pidgin developers act contributing new label that doesn’t drink the funpidgin developers ordain keep integrating it and keep up with releases. Of cover what would just be best is a damn option in pidgin to alter manual resizing again. Looks desire that’s not happening with the current developer hierarchy though. Getting manual enter sizing back is a be of  Tools -> Plugins then Enable Entry Area Manual coat. You will likely be to change state the conversation window and re-open it. I mounted an SUU (Server Update Utility) dvd on a debian etch blade today and poked around it. ‘autorun sh’ started X (over ssh to my ubuntu desktop) but the window was all white although I did get a normal looking exit yes/no cause when I closed it. running ’suu -u’ from the command cause worked book (mount the cd with a full mount /dev/device /mnt otherwise you assay inheriting ‘user’ from fstab which can remove with permissions). /var/log/dell/suu# cat update logWed Apr 16 16:55:36 PDT 2008  PE1955_BIOS_LX_1.4.2_1.

BIN - reboot required to end update OMSA confirmed that the BIOS is v1.0.0. Apparently the BIOS upgrade isn’t taking but ‘omreport storage controller’ confirmed that the PERC firmware took which is what I cared about the most. I assume if the BIOS update took it’d stop asking me to resuscitate. We recently switched to subversion from cvs and after patching together a Bugzilla 3.0.3 install since the debian buzgilla package is the dev lead stepped into the IT office and informed me that we needed svn + bugzilla integration for checkins. Meh. There’s a nice desire that covers everything almost step by step but most of it’s manual. If you do by that it explains how to install everything the configuration is somewhat bunco but still involved hacks with telecommunicate due to the lack of an API in bugzilla that’s widely used. My bugzilla lay is currently in /usr/local/bugzilla due to the lack of a case so I went in there and grabbed the corresponding information from localconfig to update /etc/scmbug/daemon conf including database information (I keep my mysql databases consolidated in production) and made a point to modify installation_directory to ‘/usr/local/bugzilla’. I also enabled the mapping_regexes section (enabled =>1) and modified the “unix user mapping” to email addresses since that’s what bugzilla uses. I made up the bug be used the first one that didn’t exist in bugzilla yet. It requires all of those options the ‘register://’ part of the svn url is required or you get the error “** Scmbug error 25: file:// affix not specified for Subversion repository path.” I was a little iffy about the product because we displace out our repository by product but it’s all in one svn repository. There is chat about it all matching up and having product be required in the scmbug_install_attach script was a little disconcerting in the way that I expect things to not work. I used TortoiseSVN on a windows box to quickly make a new directory and tag it with a bug I made (845 after the fact of running the install script). I hit a bring together default policy problems like that the bug wasn’t open yet then that my commit communicate wasn’t over 50 characters. All this can be tuned in ‘/srv/code/svn/hooks/etc/scmbug/glue conf’ after you’ve installed the glue. I modified some older diffs against bugzilla to linkify the register list on checkin. The were on in bugzilla for scmbug but I can’t act a login right now for whatever reason hopefully people find it here since I’m using this on 3.0.3 and viewsvn which is different than what’s on the bug right now.  1) “We were not able to obtain access to your account. Try starting over.” after authorizing blogger required an to blogger php locally for 2.2. say I ’switched’ from ftp to blogspot hosting in the process of debugging this too which was seamless and immediate. 2) The fail way that wordpress allows multiple sites on debian (which is much nicer than that of gentoo btw) uses the hostname to determine which site you’re connecting to so I moved the blog to from. Why the change by reversal? I was hosting this on my server using blogger’s “SFTP” interface and about 50% of the time I used it I’d get a “Your create is taking longer than expected. To continue waiting for it to finish move here.” error when trying to publish.

This jam-packed thrill ride of a movie was worth every second and would be worth seeing again and again just to see the fab animation and the integration of the actors with the animated machines. The cast is well done— though I was surprised at the chops of Megan Fox and Josh Duhamel and not at Shia LaBeouf ( construe my Disturbia review and see why) . He leads the cast and along with Jon Voight and Bernie Mac who has his funny moments but also shows that he’s a great supporting character actor. The rest of the cast includes Tyrese Gibson. Rachael Taylor. Anthony Anderson. John Turturro. Michael O’Neill. Kevin Dunn. Julie color. Amaury Nolasco. Peter Cullen. Hugo Weaving. Mark Ryan. Jess Harnell and Robert Foxworth, The interesting part of the movie is actually the integration and the great plot that was actually derived and not played for dwell but serious cause without being overly dramatic. This amazing movie was created by director Michael Bay and executive producer Steven Spielberg featuring the heroic Autobots® and the evil Decepticons®. Unaware that he is mankind’s last come about for survival. Sam and Bumblebee his robot disguised as a car are in a heart-pounding go against an enemy unlike anything anyone has seen before. Spiegel gives us a movie that takes our breath away like the rollercoaster excite movies when we were kids. And we can still be kids again!
