Re: arp cache flushing?

Here is the part of the tcpdump where the connection is lost. At about the same time as the arp request there is also a kernel message on the console about martians originating from the gateway at the isp. 22:17:32.945985 orion.mydomain.com.au.1043 > external.application.server.https: P 3083:3120

arp cache flushing?

2003-03-16 Thread Justin Clacherty
Hi,   Should an arp entry be flushed if you are constantly talking to the hardware pointed to in the arp table?   I have a problem where my connection is experiencing a 30-45 second pause every 30 minutes, this pause effectively cuts off an https connection we have running for a specific appl

snmpd configuration

Does anyone have some links to good how-to's on configuring snmpd?  I want to try out MRTG to monitor the traffic and just generally give me some statistics on a gateway I have set up.  MRTG uses snmp to get data from various machines but I've never set up snmp before.   Thanks, Justin.

You need the image file. It is the initial RAM disk that linux uses to boot the system. Try 'man mkinitrd', basically you need to run this in /boot (assuming you've already copied your kernel to there). mkinitrd -v imagename kernel imagename can be whatever you want and you use that name in gru

I had a similar problem a year or two ago. It's a bit hazy but from what I remember the iptables script wouldn't run if put in /etc/sysconfig/iptables, I actually had to run it separately after networking had been brought up (ran from rc.local I think). All I could put it down to was that as the

Turning off DMA mode

2003-01-21 Thread Justin Clacherty
How do I turn off DMA mode for an ide-tape device by default, similar to what Red Hat do with CD-ROMs.  If the tape is used in DMA mode it corrupts the filesystem so I want to make sure there is no chance that it can be accidentally used with DMA turned on.   Justin.

Try 3Ware, they are hardware raid and have support built into the kernel. 3Ware release new drivers with each bios update on their cards (it's best to use the driver version that matches your controller's bios). http://www.3ware.com Justin. -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https:

Well said Mike, though I must say that most of the boards seem to be exact replicas of ATI's reference design. The only real difference is likely to be the quality of the RAM that is used. As a side note, ATI just released an updated version of the Linux drivers supporting both "Built by" and "Po
