Re: Re: Little BIG problem with Backbone

2004-09-01 Thread Dag . Stensby

Hi Michelle,

Have you sloved your backbone problems
?

The suggestion by Richard for using
a radio bridge or hop is well proven and very cheap compared to LL's. Moreover
using PTP in conjunction with PTMP solutions, for last mile access can
in this way avoid the largest costs and easily scale the system according
to your needs.

Regards,
Dag 

Re: Ulimit and max processes

2004-09-01 Thread Andrew Miehs
Dear List,

I have finally worked out the problem.

The version of ssh supplied with woody sets the per default the limit for max 
user procs to 256. If I log in via telnet, rsh, or run ulimit -a via cron or 
via console I see the correct limit, and not 256. (and no, there is nothing 
in /etc/security/limits.conf

This problem is fixed in Sarge! Yipee! I hope it wont be too long now till 
sarge goes stable

Thanks for all your help,

Regards

Andrew

More than 1024 Apache / MySQL processes?

2004-09-01 Thread Christian Hammers
Hello

On one host I have, at peak times, roughly 1000 simultanous Apache
processes which serve MySQL intensive scripts that produce about the
same number of MySQL instances.

As 1000 connections are no longer sufficient, our customer demands a
stronger server but I'm unsure if it's possible at all to have say
1500-2000 connections.

Limitations I am aware of are:
* [compiletime] /usr/include/bits/local_lim.h PTHREAD_THREADS_MAX 
  (default 1024 in woody, 16484 since sarge) affectets at least MySQL
* [compiletime] Apache HARD_SERVER_LIMIT (default 256)
* [compiletime] MySQL suggests to lower the Thread Stack size
* [runtime] ulimit "max user processes", "open files"
* [runtime] /proc/sys/fs/file-max
* [configuration] max_clients in Apache
* [configuration] open_files_limix, max_connections,
  max_user_connections in MySQL

Is there anything else? Has anybody ever tried it? My test machines
sadly have not enough RAM to try it.

bye,

-christian-

P.S.: And yes, better alternatives like clusters etc are already under
  consideration, too, but not so easy to implement :-)

dhcpd management

2004-09-01 Thread Ant
I am the admin of a relatively small ISP (about 100 customers). I am
looking for something with a decent interface to check dhcpd stats. I
currently just look at /var/dhcp/dhcpd.leases, but it doesn't produce
very good stats.

Thanks,
Anthony

  I use the reportdhcp.pl script from this site:

http://www.omar.org/opensource/reportdhcp/

  Simple enough to setup and it shows me all the information I need
 to see.

  I'm sure freshmeat.net and/or sourceforge.net have a lot of such
 scripts...
