CentOS 5 :: IRC Client - No Traffic Seen At All?
Oct 15, 2009
While I was tweaking 5.3 to get it up to speed on a couple of servers, I used to make some use of IRC 9#centos). Haven't looked at it for a while. Decided to fire it up again tonite, only to find things...have changed. Now there is seems to be 2 channels: #centos and #centos-unregistered. I *was* already registered with nickserv, but that didn't seem to work anymore. Re-registered, but am still seeing no traffic at all. My irc client (chatzilla) suggests there are lots of users 'online', but still - not seeing any traffic at all.

I need to set up my centOS computer as a firewall in my home network. Ive got 2 interfaces, eth0 and eth1. I want to allow and forward all traffic on eth0 and block all traffic on eth1 except ssh, ping(icmp) and DNS. How do I do this? Ive tried some editing in /etc/sysconfig/iptables but no luck.

I am running Ubuntu Server 10.10. I have installed OpenVPN using this guide I have set up everything correctly as this guide says, but I am having problems with the config file. I want to securely route all traffic on the client to the server, how ever the server will not start. My config is below:
Quote:
#################################################
# Sample OpenVPN 2.0 config file for #
# multi-client server. #
# #
# This file is for the server side #
[Code]......
The servers ip is 10.0.0.65 and I want to assign the clients the ip range of 10.0.0.200 to 10.0.0.20 When I try to start the server I get the message Fail.

Recently I notice that when I'm connected to an vpn server (pptpd) and I'm using it as a default gateway my download and upload speed decreases almost to the half of the usual speed. I made a test using iptables in order to count how much GRE packets are generated (except the real traffic itself) in that way:
Code:
iptables -I INPUT -p gre -j ACCEPT
iptables -I OUTPUT -p gre -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -s 172.16.10.101 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -d 172.16.10.101 -j ACCEPT
The first 2 rules match all GRE packets between the pptpd server and client, and the next rules - the traffic between the server and the client.
When I turn the counters to zero and begin to generate traffic (to browse, to download etc.) I see that the GRE packets are even more than these in the FORWARD chain.
So, my question is first of all is my test correct and is it true that so much gre traffic is being generated during the browsing (it becames clear that the traffic is double than if the pptpd wasn't used as a gateway) and if yes - can that traffic be reduced?

I am running Debian Squeeze with the following basic services running:DNS
DHCP
Samba
Squid
The server is setup with three NICs: eth0 (WAN1), eth1 (WAN2), and eth2 (LAN).The server addresses clients with an IP range of 10.0.30.1 - 10.0.30.254. Some clients will be set with reservations so they fall into the 10.0.40.1 - 254 range.
What I want to do is have any outgoing external traffic coming from the first range (10.0.30.0) to use WAN link 1, and any outgoing external traffic coming from the second range (10.0.40.0) to use WAN link 2.
I have sort of got something working. I have created a bare minimum transparent squid3 setup on port 3128, and set the iptables as follows:
Code:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth2 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to-destination 10.0.0.1:3128
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 3128
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 3128
I can get internet access, however obviously it only goes through one WAN link. It also seems slower than it should be. I experimented with tcp_outgoing_address, but seemed to not be my friend.

how to configure my network for web traffic.Here is my setup:I have the following virtual machines, (all guest are running on CentOS 5.3);
firewall: Smoothwall 3.0, (hardware, not virtual)
guest # 1: Apache http server
guest # 2: Qmail server
guest # 3: Proftp server
I want all of these services on different machines for security reasons, (mainly the ftp server) how do I route the traffic from the firewall to the different machines? I have been looking at setting up a reverse proxy, however, everything that I have read says that a reverse proxy will not handle the smtp/pop3 traffic. Can I just use a DNS server to route the traffic?

I got to establish an OpenVPN connection between two server and I have dhcpd on the client server which feeds a few SIP phones. All these phones are supposed to the register server through the tunnel.Here is the network structure:
Client CentOS:
eth0: 192.168.0.0/24
eth1:192.168.100.0/24
tun0:172.15.0.0/24
DHCPD: feeding above eth1 and all the phones with 192.168.100.0/24
If I ping 172.15.0.1 from the the Client CentOS it works all fine. Everything pings and I can even do SSH. However, the phones which obtain their ip through eth1 on the same server can not reach the 172.15.0.1. I think it's a route issue here. Can you please guide me to the right direction as to how to forward certain traffic through tun0 and leave the rest of the traffic to go through eth0?
I don't want to turn on IPTABLES as this is time consuming for me now and there is VPN setup. It has to do with setting up the routing but I am not sure.

Here is what I need to accomplish but somehow not getting where I need:
Server A:
-OpenVPN Server
-NIC1 = Internet (vnet - public IP address)
-Tun0 - 172.16.0.1
Server B:
-OpenVPN Client - Connects to Server A as a Client.

We have something on our network that is reaking havoc with our content filter. I am trying to track it down, but so far I have been unsuccessful. We have approximately 500 devices in 100+ different locations spread across 9 states. Looking at each computer is not really feasible.
I need a machine that can sit in between our network and our internet connection and graphically monitor in real time and logs how much traffic each device is sending and receiving. It would need to sit inline so it has to have two nics and be able to pass traffic. The machine also needs to be transparent. Reconfiguration of our routers or workstations is not an option.
I have used ethereal and wireshark before. Ethereal may be a viable option, but wireshark seems to provide lots of information, but no practical way to make use of it. how to set up the box to be a transparent device on the network that will allow internet bound traffic to flow (freely)?

I'm having a problem and despite I have googled a lot cant find the root cause. I have a server with two embedded NICs and centos 5.5 loaded. I need to have one NIC with a fix internal IP address to communicate with the intranet and a second NIC with a fix address from my telephone provider. I know I cant have two different gateways on the net so I configured only the gateway for the second NIC leaving the field empty for the first.
I found that the first NIC is handling all the traffic for both interfaces (eth0 and eth1) and the second NIC is in standby (or doing nothing). This is causing the traffic intended for the second NIC never reach their destination. After a couple days working with the BIOS and other configuration files I tried another way of solve the issue. I put a fix address for the first NIC and another fix address for the second NIC (both in the same subnet) and from a computer pinged successfully both addresses. However if I disconnect the cable for the first NIC both interfaces goes down (eth0 and eth1) and both pings fails. If I disconnect the cable for the second NIC (with the first one connected) both pings still running without any disturbance.
I worked also in a second server with different hardware (different kind of motherboard, different NIC manufacturer, etc.) but the problem is also present in this second server. I was reading about NIC bonding or teaming, but this configuration is not present in the modprobe.conf or in the ifcfg-eth0 files, so I believe the problem is not related with this feature. Do you know what is happening with the NICs and how can I get two really, fully independent NICs?

Under high UDP traffic condition, we find we cannot receive UDP packet (can be captured by tcpdump) from socket neither use bare "recvfrom" nor "select recvfrom " pair. Is there any similar problem reported from user?
Any tunning or socket establish option can help?
Or is there any improvement available from the latest version?

This will be a little long (having read Phil's 'how to ask questions' FAQ). I'm trying to get OpenVPN working between my CentOS server and some Windoze laptops running XP. There seems to be plenty of sample
config files available, but to date, none of them have worked for me. Pulling out my trusty Wireshark, I've found some clues,
BACKGROUND:
My local subnet (NAT'ed by my gateway router) is 192.168.52.x. My router has been configured with a conduit (port-forward) for port 1194 (the standard OpenVPN port), which points towards my CentOS server.The CentOS server is .52.112, and the supplicant is .52.110. I have tried the lient both inside and outside my local subnet, with no difference in events or outcomes.

I've tried to read many of the topics in this forum first and tried to find a solution to my problem, but can't find one.I'm testing CentOS 5.5, it's the first time I'm using a CentOS Linux release.I'm trying to configure the proxy "client side " on it and cannot find how to do it.On other Linux release I've used the ENV variable like "http_proxy" or "HTTP_PROXY" etc etc.This time, I don't know why but it doesn't work.I've put the name and @ip of the proxy in /etc/hosts and tried different version upper/lowercase of "http_proxy" "HTTP_proxy" "ftp_pr.." but it doesn't work.If I configure manually Firefox and puting the name or @ip of the proxy we have on our network, it works.But if I try to use ENV variable it doesn't work...

I have a DELL running CentOS 5.4 with 2 active NICs, one with an external IP address (eth0) on 123.456.78.9 and another that is connected to our internal network (eth1), 192.168.2.x. When I reboot the server, everything works glowingly. External traffic is correctly routed over the external interface (eth0) and internal traffic over the internal interface (eth1). After some random amount of time, a couple of hours and sometimes a couple of days, all traffic starts getting routed over our internal network, so DNS requests fail, internet pages don't load, smtp connections fail, etc.
I'm assuming that everything that's not headed for our .1, .2 or VPN internal networks would go out the external interface. And why this works for a period of time and then stops working is beyond me. And when external traffic starts going over the internal interface, I just reboot and it starts working like it's supposed to again.

We have a production web site running apache 2.2.3 across several web servers. we also have a major problem with SPAM comments right now. our method of identifying valid IPs (whether by external clients/customers, or internal personnel) vs SPAM'ers is not ideal - its prone to erroneously labeling legit IP's as targets to be blacklisted.
What we need is.. a way to see how much distinct request traffic is coming from any given IP address to the site in real time (or very near realtime). Essentially we want to see in some graphic/chart way requests per sec to apache / per ip sorted by requests per sec.Would nTop do this? I've only used this in a limited form at a branch office, not on a production web server.

I wanted to tell my server to block all traffic but US only traffic. So i followed this guide:[URL].. Now I know, it's the best way to help prevent hackers/crackers (doesn't matter to me what they are called. I just have to stop them). My server only deals with US clients anyways so might as well just start right there for my server's security before getting into the brute force and injection preventions. So I got it all done compiled everything moved to the proper directory. I then started to setup my iptables. Like so
Code: iptables -F INPUT
iptables -F OUTPUT
iptables -I INPUT 1 -s *.*.*.* -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I INPUT 2 -s *.*.*.* -p tcp -j ACCEPT
[Code]...
After seeing that i went digging in the code and figured it was something todo with memory allocation.

I'm trying to setup a Centos 5.6 Squid Proxy Server with Content Filtering & Antivirus Scanning Incoming HTTP Traffic from the Internet
I then proceeded to setup an configure the Proxy Server, i was able to test and confirm that Squid and Dansguardian Content Filter is working, however i dont know if Clamav is scanning HTTP traffic before it hits the client/server. Is there a way i can check if the Antivirus scanning is working.. is there some log file or real world test i can i can do to confirm that Clamav is scanning incoming traffic or even blocking potential viruses ??
Anyone who has squid proxy server with Clamav configured and its working can share there settings/setup with me and how they tested it ??

I have been beating my head for the last few weeks on this problem, (although I have been taking the wrong approach, it seems).
I need a gateway to direct web traffic to three separate servers/domains. I have been trying to do this with both a dns server and , (seperatly), apache server to forward requests. The dns server was a no go, and <i can only get apache to redirect http and ftp.
After Googling this ALOT, I believe that what I need is a gateway server to redirect my traffic to the 3 different servers. I have been reading about using using nat and iptables for this and was wondering if anyone had any advice/suggestions on this. The other thought I had was to use something like pfSense to create the gateway, but I am still reading the documentation, and I am unsure if this approach will work.

I just installed the CentOs 5.5 on my laptop (windows7 + vmware workstation 7), I used host only, the centos could connect only with my laptop. After installation , I 'd like to admin CentOs by putty or ssh client, so I configured the sshd_config. I configured the file like this:
UsePAM no
UseDNS no
PasswordAuthentication yes
but I could not log in successfully , the connection was refused all the time. I can ping the Centos from my windows7; I can telnet ip 22 , the Openssh could appear; the /var/log/security looks no problem ; but I just couldn't log in the system. How can I do?

I am currently using an M-Audio 7.1 PCI sound card on a headless non-GUI Centos5.5 install. MPD is running in the background for jukebox usage. The problem is, I seem to be at 100% volume output on the jukebox and I can't figure out how to change volume. Using alsaunmute to set volume sets some kind of volume on the soundcard, from what I can tell, but it's like that new volume setting is not being respected by ALSA. I can also set the volume using 'alsamixer' which also produces no noticable effect (100% is the same as 0%, as loud as could be from the PC).
I'm using the digital coax output from the soundcard for this - not the 3.5mm jack (due to stereo reasons beyond my control). Perhaps I'm not modifying the master volume? Thing is, when modify volume settings via an MPD client, such as Minion or one on my phone,�the volume setting does change in the ALSA software, but there's no audible difference. It makes me think alsa is not being used for sound control, but I'm stumped as to how to check otherwise. At least sound plays!
