Nameserver Giving False Results

Mar 25, 2007

Is there any way to avoid getting false name lookups when trying to resolv inexistent domains ? apart from using another nameserver.

I'm sorry if it was posted earlier, tried searching but it didn't help as it gave me large results.

Code:
[root@removed ~]# ping hjkdji284kajgafhj87da778dfsd.com
PING hjkdji284kajgafhj87da778dfsd..com.insertdchere.com (xx.xxx.xxx.xx) 56(84) bytes of data.

Host Not Giving Me The Hardware I Ordered

May 29, 2008

I didn't want to say anything bad about this Host, because the staff is very friendly, but people need to be warned incase they didn't get what they ordered either.

I ordered a server with a hotswappable RAID, and got a the welcome letter a few days later. The welcome letter didn't have my root password or my IP address range. So, I emailed asking for that. Then I started wondering if they missed anything else because the welcome letter nor their client area lists the server specs. So I asked if they have my the correct hardware.

They said No, and will give me a monthly credit and the correct hardware for the inconvience. It was a new server and wasn't a big deal to me.

But then I wondered if they did the same to the server I ordered like 40 days ago. So I asked and they said they messed up my hardware on that order too. That server is already up and running with sites on it.

The host is AxisHost , I know many people here recommend them, thats why I chose them, but this seems like it may be happening a lot with them.

Spam...false Positive

May 21, 2008

After few days of not getting even "one" spam out of average 70 messages a day...the company manager got angry! He thought the mail system is down.

Our provider - a VDS subscriber who rent us shared plan for a website - said: we changed nothing. I confirmed: did you install any new anti-spam software on the site...they said: NO.

In a next conversation with the company manager, they told him they installed a new anti-spam software on the whole server and cannot make it off for our site specifically.

The problem is, they already had a kind of anti-spam software which only "marks" spam-like messages with "**SPAM**" in the subject line, and doesn't mark others. I am afraid some customers' emails get marked and deleted with this new software they claim implemented, based on false positives.

Many times I get my emails in Yahoo and Hotmail go to Spam/Junk folder for some not-widely known reasons, like sending to myself, while putting recipients in CC, and other strange reasons like just using CC in an auto-reply!

something any non-tech person might do.

I am thinking in switching to a new host where we only host mails (mx record), so we don't have "any" email deleted without our check.

PRIMARYVPS.COM's False Tactics: IS IT OK

Jun 13, 2007

I was surprised to see that they had 100% uptime in May according to their logs. I am used to see 99.98%, 98.97% etc. etc. with other hosts. But even 100% is quite possible.

On June 7th the uptime suddenly dropped below 96% with avg. 7 outages. I was really disappoined as I was planning to signup. But after a day or so it again rose to 100% with 0 outages on all of their servers which clearly explained the 100% uptime of May.

According to them they had a attack because of which IPs of nodes had to be changed and subsequently they also changed it on hyperspin.com (their server monitoring service). I immediately signed up on hyperspin to verify this claim. Changing the IP or hostname of a monitored service on hyperspin doesn't reset its log is what i clearly observed. Its quite visible that the logs were reset intensionally to hide the actual server uptime and make it always show 100% percent. When i reverted back to them on this issue, they prefered to close the ticket. I just want to know from other hosts, it this practice common or primaryvps.com is an exception? Well as mentioned on their site, the uptime log is located at:

hyperspin.com/publicreport/30037/20077

But don't expect too much. It has only two figures 0 for outages and 100% for uptime.

Apf Firewall Giving Iptables: Invalid Argument

Oct 27, 2006

I have a Virtuozzo VPS running Debian Sarge. I installed apf. My /etc/apf/conf.apf looks like:

IFACE_IN="venet0"
IFACE_OUT="venet0"
SET_MONOKERN="1"
IG_TCP_CPORTS="21,22,53,80,443,25,465,110,995,143,993,137,139,445,10000,3306"
IG_UDP_CPORTS="53"

Am am getting several "iptables: Invalid arguments" message. I traced this to these iptables calls from within /etc/apf/firewall. Each of these iptables calls gives "iptables: Invalid arguments":

/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i venet0 -p tcp --tcp-flags ALL NONE -j IN_SANITY

/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i venet0 -p tcp --tcp-flags SYN,FIN SYN,FIN -j IN_SANITY

/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i venet0 -p tcp --tcp-flags SYN,RST SYN,RST -j IN_SANITY

/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i venet0 -p tcp --tcp-flags FIN,RST FIN,RST -j IN_SANITY

/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i venet0 -p tcp --tcp-flags ACK,FIN FIN -j IN_SANITY

/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i venet0 -p tcp --tcp-flags ACK,URG URG -j IN_SANITY

/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i venet0 -p tcp --tcp-flags ACK,PSH PSH -j IN_SANITY

/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i venet0 -p tcp --tcp-flags ALL FIN,URG,PSH -j IN_SANITY

/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i venet0 -p tcp --tcp-flags ALL SYN,RST,ACK,FIN,URG -j IN_SANITY

/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i venet0 -p tcp --tcp-flags ALL ALL -j IN_SANITY

/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i venet0 -p tcp --tcp-flags ALL FIN -j IN_SANITY

Any thoughts? According to my ISP, I have these iptables modules:
iptable_filter
iptable_mangle
ipt_limit
ipt_multiport
ipt_tos
ipt_TOS
ipt_REJECT
ipt_TCPMSS
ipt_tcpmss
ipt_ttl
ipt_LOG
ipt_length
ip_conntrack

ip_conntrack_irc
ipt_conntrack
ipt_state
ipt_helper
iptable_nat

Host Giving Free Dedicated SSL Certificates

May 24, 2009

I am looking for webhosts providing free dedicated (not shared) SSL certificates alongwith dedicated IP.

Currently I found only dotable.com and other companies in the UK2 group providing such a package. Is there any other good webhost providing free SSL certificates.

My budget is maximum $10 per month.

Only CPanel hosts are preferred and access to WHM would be a definite plus though not mandatory.

Giving Chrooted User Access To Mysqldump

Aug 3, 2009

I have a chrooted ftp user that I use on my server. I would like to run a cron job using this user that backs up my mySQL databases. When I execute the job, it complains about date and mysqldump not existing. I was able to fix the date problem simply by copying it from the actual /bin to the chrooted /bin. However, I can't simply copy mysqldump because it depends on several libraries. Anybody know how I can give this chrooted user access to commands that aren't in his chroot?

My Godaddy VPS Is Giving Me These Errors. Can't Register, Delete Domains Or

Jun 3, 2009

I've had this virtual server with Godaddy forever. I have about 52 websites on it. I was adding another and I walked through the registration process and forgot to click the save button. I then proceeded to the domain area of Godaddy to update the IP address. Now I can't add domains, delete dns settings, or update DNS settings without getting these kinds of messages:

Your URL: /dns/sync.do

Error details:

So! Godaddy has now had me upgrade my disk space to another 10gig, I've tunneled in with ssh and ran memhog to increase memory because they are suggesting that I'm too low on RAM and want me to purchase another server, I can't just ugrade. I've updated all the packages in my simple control panel.
I finally got an email from them after begging for help, because $75 an hour is just too much for me!

This is what I got:

Dear Sir/Madam,

Thank you for contacting Server Support.

If this issue started after the modifications to the DNS of a domain, then it is likely that the DNS file or configuration has become corrupted. You can attempt to manually update or recreate the DNS file via SSH. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide assistance with the configuration of the server or modification of files. While you do have a lot of domain names added to the server, a backup of the content and reprovision of the server will reset the server to the default settings. However, this will remove all content and require that you re-add all domains and content once again.

I have backed up all my sites and databases, but to start all over again is a horrific thought. I can't imagine the nightmare.

Spam Test For Outbound False Positive Mail

Jul 9, 2007

I tried a little searching both in Google and on here but this is probably going to be a private or member-based thing anyway.

I've gotten a couple comments that some of my outbound personal mail is ending up in spam folders. I think it's almost completely limited to having Outlook (or Express?) as a client... which I assume doesn't even do network-based lookups. Nonetheless I don't seem to be on any blacklists, and running it through my own spamassassin filter comes up basically zero score. But the fact that more than one person has had the problem concerns me greatly. Also, I haven't seen any significant reason why the content itself would trigger anything.

I realize a public spam test service would basically be a "testing ground" for spammers to evade detection, but there's obviously legitimate uses as well... is there such a tool somewhere? Thanks for any advice. Public information sharing is key to a forum, but PMs are welcome in this case.

Server Monitoring - Siteuptime Starting To Give False Alerts

Jun 26, 2008

Being using the free version of siteuptime.com but this month alone i have had so far 3 false alerts reported, i am always in the putty and does not get interrupted, and i am sure i am around on the site too while supposedly siteuptime reports down (i am guessing firewall blocks their server ip for w/e reason). So am wondering is there any really good public tracking site out there which can do public reports more accurately and not kak out on me?

Whats your experience with siteuptime for monitoring if any ? Sometimes it works "ok" other times its just off the charts.

Can A Nameserver Be Specified In An A Record By Another Nameserver

Apr 4, 2008

1) I use DNSMadeEasy for a couple of my important domains so I can utilize their failover service.

2) I use my own nameservers for everyone else.

At my register (GoDaddy) I've added host entries to my domain (let's call it host.com) for ALL of my nameservers: DNSMadeEasy and mine. For example here are my host entries:

1) nsdme0.host.com = 55.55.55.55 (DNSMadeEasy)
2) nsdme1.host.com = 56.55.55.55 (DNSMadeEasy)
3) nsdme2.host.com = 57.55.55.55 (DNSMadeEasy)
4) nsdme3.host.com = 58.55.55.55 (DNSMadeEasy)
5) nsdme4.host.com = 59.55.55.55 (DNSMadeEasy)
6) ns1.host.com = 60.55.55.55 (mine)
7) ns2.host.com = 61.55.55.55 (mine)

At the register I've then configured host.com to use the first five nameservers for itself, the DNSMadeEasy nameservers.

For less critical sites that I host I simply point them to ns1.host.com and ns2.host.com, my nameservers.

Now, here's the twist. If I use dig to look up www.host.com I get:

[root@lax1 ~]# dig +trace www.host.com

;; Received 241 bytes from 192.54.112.30#53(H.GTLD-SERVERS.net) in 151 ms

What I've realized is that the actual IP addresses for nameserver host entries come from a higher level server than my own, in this case H.GTLD-SERVERS.net. I guess this makes sense but I just hadn't realized it before. It looks like I don't even need to have record entries in my DNS records for the host nameservers.

Now for the question. Can I:

1) Remove my custom host nameserver entries from my register.

2) Add entries in my DNSMadeEasy records to specify the location of ns1.host.com and ns2.host.com.

3) Use the failover provided by DNSMadeEasy to also fail-over my DNS entries for my nameservers?

I know this would require one more hop if it works but it would allow me to provide failover ability to fifty domains without having to purchase the extra domains at DNSMadeEasy.

Paging Results Of Ls Through FTP

Jan 28, 2009

Is there a way to page results from ls through FTP similar to the way you can in your shell by using ls | less (or ls -l | more)? When I try ls | less through FTP, even on a linux server, it wants to output to a local file?

Leary With Traceroute Results

Dec 13, 2007

We're looking to bring in a T3 for our small startup hosting company and when we do traces from multiple location it always runs through a cox.net IP and it concerns me because I dont want our customers to believe they're being hosted on some kids cablemodem. What do you folks suggest, the IP is 64.19.96.5 to their outer router. Should it be a concern that we route through everyone through a cox.net IP?

Final Results - HostWay

Apr 10, 2008

This is a follow-up to my original thread [url] regarding my client's experiences with HostWay.

I simply can't believe all of this, and I went through it.

The low points of the whole thing work out like this: In order to set up an SSL for my client's site, we needed a dedicated IP. If you do a traceroute on my client's URL, it resolves to someone else all together. Int he mean time, I tried to purchase an SSL through HostWay, and when they didn't respond in a week and a half, I e-mailed cancelling the order, and purchased a (thankfully) inexpensive SSL from GoDaddy. I got an e-mail back within hours from HW saying, literally, "We never processed your SSL order, so there's nothing to cancel. Let us know if there's anythig else we can do."

As I mentioned before, e-mail support seems to be handled off-shore, and it takes over a week for most answers. Phone support gets you, I found out, a service in Florida.

While the people I dealt with on the phone were always professional and polite, they literally could do almost nothing. I was told several times, "I have to e-mail someone in Chicago - no, I don't know who it is, all I have is an e-mail address."

Back to the SSL - seems HostWay already installed one on my client's site at some point - and it had nothing to do with my client. You could visit a secure version of the site, and it would tell you not to enter, as the cert didn't match the site.

My client and I both were on the phone with the Florida 800 number for hours at a time.

Average wait time to speak to someone was 30 minutes or so. I'm not carping about that part - but they were feeding us false information which was supposedly fed them from "Chicago." Specifically, I told them on the phone and via e-mail that the IP didn't resolve correctly, and that the old cert needed to be removed before a new one could go on (and only their SSL team can install certs, supposedly).

They told my client that the GoDaddy cert was causing them problems, and that it needed to be cancelled before they could install one of their GeoTrust certs. I nuked it - even though I knew better - and of course nothing was done. They lied to my client for several days, saying the new cert was installed (even though I knew it wasn't, and I told my client so, and showed them HW's tech was passing on false information).

This situation went on for almost two weeks. Finally, Monday night, my client got a supervisor based in British Columbia, Canada, who promised that he would walk "the tech admin" through fixing the problems that night. But that was only after my client threatened to pull his account.

Well, the IP is still screwed up, but they replaced the cert that night with one for which they charged my client an arm and a leg. The CC processing company is happy, so we let it ride, and they're now processing payments over the web.

If this is confusing, it's because I condensed many long days and nights into a few short paragraphs. Let's just say that HW didn't have their thinking caps on tight, because they committed to their preposterous stories to e-mails which we all received.

Later this year, at a conference to be held in Canada, a committee of nuclear power station operators will be discussing whether or not they should keep HW as the host of their site. Gee, I wonder what the consensus will be.

Tuning-primer.sh Results, How To Act On Them

Nov 22, 2007

Quote:

MySQL Version 4.1.22-standard i686

Uptime = 0 days 0 hrs 4 min 15 sec
Avg. qps = 17
Total Questions = 4479
Threads Connected = 1

Warning: Server has not been running for at least 48hrs.
It may not be safe to use these recommendations

To find out more information on how each of these
runtime variables effects performance visit:
[url]

SLOW QUERIES
Current long_query_time = 10 sec.
You have 1 out of 4491 that take longer than 10 sec. to complete
The slow query log is NOT enabled.
Your long_query_time may be too high, I typically set this under 5 sec.

WORKER THREADS
Current thread_cache_size = 128
Current threads_cached = 6
Current threads_per_sec = 0
Historic threads_per_sec = 0
Your thread_cache_size is fine

MAX CONNECTIONS
Current max_connections = 2000
Current threads_connected = 1
Historic max_used_connections = 7
The number of used connections is 0% of the configured maximum.
You are using less than 10% of your configured max_connections.
Lowering max_connections could help to avoid an over-allocation of memory
See "MEMORY USAGE" section to make sure you are not over-allocating

MEMORY USAGE
Max Memory Ever Allocated : 96 M
Configured Max Per-thread Buffers : 10 G
Configured Max Global Buffers : 58 M
Configured Max Memory Limit : 10 G
Total System Memory : 3.95 G

Max memory limit exceeds 85% of total system memory

KEY BUFFER
Current MyISAM index space = 78 M
Current key_buffer_size = 16 M
Key cache miss rate is 1 : 735
Key buffer fill ratio = 8.00 %
Your key_buffer_size seems to be too high.
Perhaps you can use these resources elsewhere

QUERY CACHE
Query cache is enabled
Current query_cache_size = 32 M
Current query_cache_used = 4 M
Current query_cach_limit = 1 M
Current Query cache fill ratio = 14.83 %
Your query_cache_size seems to be too high.
Perhaps you can use these resources elsewhere
MySQL won't cache query results that are larger than query_cache_limit in size

SORT OPERATIONS
Current sort_buffer_size = 2 M
Current record/read_rnd_buffer_size = 256 K
Sort buffer seems to be fine

JOINS
Current join_buffer_size = 1.00 M
You have had 0 queries where a join could not use an index properly
Your joins seem to be using indexes properly

OPEN FILES LIMIT
Current open_files_limit = 10000 files
The open_files_limit should typically be set to at least 2x-3x
that of table_cache if you have heavy MyISAM usage.
Your open_files_limit value seems to be fine

TABLE CACHE
Current table_cache value = 1024 tables
You have a total of 721 tables
You have 93 open tables.
The table_cache value seems to be fine

TEMP TABLES
Current max_heap_table_size = 16 M
Current tmp_table_size = 32 M
Of 212 temp tables, 0% were created on disk
Effective in-memory tmp_table_size is limited to max_heap_table_size.
Created disk tmp tables ratio seems fine

TABLE SCANS
Current read_buffer_size = 1 M
Current table scan ratio = 17754 : 1
You have a high ratio of sequential access requests to SELECTs
You may benefit from raising read_buffer_size and/or improving your use of indexes.

TABLE LOCKING
Current Lock Wait ratio = 1 : 76
You may benefit from selective use of InnoDB.
If you have long running SELECT's against MyISAM tables and perform
frequent updates consider setting 'low_priority_updates=1'

how to make the changes in red? My server works good for awhile, but then gets REALLY REALLY slow.

I run the top command when memory usage seems to be running high on my server. I look at it and blink and have no real idea whether things are "okay" or not.

I apologize for the extreme basicness of this question. At the same I would love to have some kind of personal benchmark of "okayness" for this server so I can look at top results when things are dreadfully wrong and recognize it.

Based on these results would you say the server is holding up under traffic?

Ping Results For My VPS - Acceptable

Oct 23, 2007

We run our company website on a VPS.

Now we do notice, that quite frequently, the connection times out or the server responds slowly. A friend of mine said the VPS could be the issue of this.

I ran a ping test today for several hours, sending one ping with 16 bytes with a timeout set to 3 seconds.

From 18000 pings sent (5 hours), 120 failed. Which comes to one failure in 150 pings, or one failure every 2.5 minutes.

Is this still an acceptable failure rate or do I have reason to contact our VPS provider? According to our own usage statictics, we are not using much of the server's capacities.

Netstat Results Show 3 Ips In Same Location With Several Connections

Mar 13, 2008

I'm new to server administration/security/troubleshooting, so I have included a lot of info here hoping it will help.

This started because a Linux VPS with CentOS and Exim crashed after only 3000 emails were sent (of 30000) total

I ran a netstat and several times I get three separate ips with the only difference being the last two digits and the port number:
86.104.230.29:59009
86.104.117.45:18065
89.37.137.157:41593

As far as I can tell they are from Romania, and there are several connections.

I have posted a lot of information below, if someone can take a look and give some ideas, it would be very much appreciated.

netstat:

Evaluating Anycast Domain Name Server (DNS) - Strange Results

Oct 22, 2009

Hope there is a DNS expert about that can make sense of what I observe and give an unbiased opinion.

We are currenlty evaluating hosted DNS providers. Anycast DNS seems like a great feature to have and we want fail over too. Narrowed down a list of possible suppliers: DNS Made Easy, Netriplex and Dynect.

After reading up on some blogs 1 & 2 mainly, we setup a Pingdom test to evaluate our three candidates.

For DME I used their own site URL for testing, Netriplex and Dynect gave us dedicated test accounts.

The average response times roughly follow the prices, DME is slowest, Netriplex next and Dynect is the winner. I have detailed logs in anyone is interested (in CSV).

Now for the unexpected results. All 3 providers give very long response times a few times a day - sometimes as long as 5 or 10 seconds. Now and again we see a timeout - i.e. a response of over 15 seconds.

We cross checked by running a testing our current non-anycast Rackspace DNS - similar outliers are present too.

Pingdom tech support think these outliers could be due to peering issues on the internet.

I would expect anycast DNS to be much more robust and to give decent response times even if there are localised networking issues.

So our outliers are either down to the way Pingdom does the testing, or just a 'feature' of the way DNS works.

Anyone with any bright ideas on how to explain this?
