response 282 of 334: Mark Unseen   Dec 13 14:31 UTC 2010

resp:271 Whoa, simmer down there, veek.  What you are describing is just
the reality of working in a shared development environment.  That's one reason
it's often easier to submit patches rapidly, with small changes in them.  When
you talk about integrating changes out of the head branch, use the tools to
help you do that automatically; svn update is a handy thing.  If there's a
conflict between something in the trunk and what you've done, then it will tell
you and you can fix the conflict.  Otherwise, it'll just merge it in
automatically.

As far as deprecated tags, it's incremental improvement.  Nothing happens over
night, but if you're digging into it, maybe it's good to fix those at the same
time.

This web stuff is not that hard; certainly, nothing one would find in the CS
PhD program at Harvard or any decent school.

resp:281 I think the max mailbox size is like 50 megs or so.

resp:280 Looking now.

response 284 of 334: Mark Unseen   Dec 13 14:46 UTC 2010

resp:280 Hmm, a lot of chunks got rejected; I put most of them in
~cross/*.rej.

Veek, and Kent, I'd recommend using subversion to download a copy of the
repository directly to the machine you are doing the work on.  This could look
something like:

% svn co svn+ssh://you@grex.org/var/svn/trunk/grex/web

Then, you can do an "svn update" in your local copy and automatically pick
up changes that have been synced to the mainline repository.

response 286 of 334: Mark Unseen   Dec 13 15:40 UTC 2010

resp:285 [re: svn] Yeah, basically; it will merge whatever you have done
with whatever is in the repository.  So, suppose I make a change at the top of
a file and you make a change at the bottom.  The changes don't conflict.  Then,
I submit my change; you do an "svn update" and pull in my latest changes.  Then
my change is automatically patched into the file, and your change is
unaffected.

Suppose that the changes do conflict, though; then Subversion will tell you
there's a conflict and let you resolve it.

So it won't clobber your changes.

I think we shouldn't be underlining text at all.  <u>'s should just go away
and be replaced with emphasized or strong text.

resp:286 hmm.. well, maybe the diff will work now.. i did an update to 
the latest 1017 and then did svn diff.. it's copied: 'latest.diff' 
could you check?

response 288 of 334: Mark Unseen   Dec 13 15:51 UTC 2010

it ought to work now! it gave me no errors when i did the update..

response 290 of 334: Mark Unseen   Dec 13 15:53 UTC 2010

there could be a problem with the revision tags? I removed them from my 
html because svn was inserting span revision tags.. maybe if it's 
pattern matching.. it might fail
cross
response 291 of 334: Mark Unseen   Dec 13 16:32 UTC 2010

Yeah, it was the "$Id:$" tags screwing things up.  I patched in your changes
and pushed them to production.

Thanks, Dan. I was able to checkout the current web files and now can
update them easily, I think.  That will make this whole exercise much
easier!

response 295 of 334: Mark Unseen   Dec 15 14:43 UTC 2010

I was wondering, what was the reason for 'validate' in the sense that.. 
when Grex was hit by Chad, what used to happen.. the box would hang 
with cpu at 98%, then someone had to go to reset the box? or call 
provide to have it rest?? So what's wrong with that..?? Provide didn't 
want to rest the box?? Or did the File-system conk-out after the 
reset?? What was the actual task that was sucking up staff time and 
causing so much inconvenience.. could someone clarify.. 

I took a look at the FS:
/dev/wd0a     1008M    115M    843M    12%    /
/dev/wd0d      492M    9.6M    458M     2%    /suid
/dev/wd0f     31.5G   15.7G   14.3G    52%    /usr
/dev/wd0g     39.4G   13.2G   24.2G    35%    /var
/dev/wd0j      9.8G    5.5G    3.9G    58%    /a
/dev/wd0k      9.8G    2.8G    6.6G    30%    /c
/dev/wd0m     15.7G    5.8M   15.0G     0%    /tmp
/dev/wd0o     19.7G    845M   17.9G     4%    /cyberspace
/dev/nnpfs0   10.6G      0B   10.6G     0%    /afs

/dev/wd0a is what is critical to getting the box to boot right?? It's 
the rootFS so if the box is not shutdown cleanly it gets corrupted and  
fsck will bitch. It's also the smallest FS at 115MB on a 1GB partition.

IF disk corruption and having to run to provide was the problem, why 
not install 2 root filesystems (mirror/duplicate - using dump/dd, /dev/
wd0a). Obviously you can only boot off one rootFS! But, lets say we 
bootup from wd0a because that's the default. Once Grex is running, 
point the bootloader to /dev/wd0b (our backup rootFS). Now chad comes 
along and crashes the box. You call provide, tell them reset please. 
They reset, and BECAUSE you've changed the boot order when Grex was 
running, it will load via the secondFS and come online.

Presto! someone remote logsin, run fsck on the broken partition and you 
are up and running!! (it works on linux, and i could try downloading 
OBSD.. and checking.. but, is that the problem?)
----------------

Or, switch to using a journal?? Right now we are using OBSD's Fast file 
system..
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/geom-gjournal.html (but that would 
take time me thinks since we are on OpenBSD right now)

also if i upload patches, could someone patch?? Or do I have to wait
till  cross gets back.. 1 month he said.. worst case scenario..

response 297 of 334: Mark Unseen   Dec 15 15:16 UTC 2010

I don't remember the details of what the vandals were doing, but the
result was several days of downtime.  We've some pretty capable
sysadmins around here, and they could not find a way to keep the box or
get it back up quickly, as motivated as they were to find a solution. 
If something as simple as you've suggested would have worked, it would
have been implemented.

I've uploaded: ~veek/latest.diff could someone patch? Just to remind
you,  you should also know how to rollback :p

response 299 of 334: Mark Unseen   Dec 15 16:47 UTC 2010

resp:295 What's the relative benefit of running a system that a user can
take down at will while other users are using it but that can be rebooted
easily, versus what we have now?
cross
response 300 of 334: Mark Unseen   Dec 15 16:56 UTC 2010

resp:298 It seems that much has already been applied.  Did you sync your
workspace after the last push before uploading this?

TS!! grrr! (and re the mail, it's not necessary that I do the duplicate 
FS thingy - anyone could)

resp:299 ah! okay:
1. xyz hoses Grex - right now we got to go to provide because FFS 
doesn't journal. That's one task saved given that xyz could lie and 
sneak past validation in any case. Validation doesn't solve the lying 
problem.. (unless we insist on paypal for everyone!) I mean, nothing 
stops Chad from getting in right now! He just chooses not to!

2. Sure he could take the box down again and again, but now we can 
start banning his ips! and temporarily lock tor out! In fact we could 
nuke his whole subnet temporarily (1 month ban). With minimal downtime, 
he's not getting any reward in terms of squealing users and sysadmins 
having to run to provide.net.

3. It's easy to implement right? We need to resize a partition and 
extract 1Gb and then just dump to it. we could use diffs for stuff like 
password/shadow/group syncing. Or put in another hard disk.. 

4. Validation can now be temporary. When under attack, Grex just locks 
things up without going to provide. Then we leisurely repair the mainFS 
and unlock(remove validate) at leisure..
---

I feel it's worth a shot, but like i said, if ppl don't like it.. (i'm 
not overly optimistic about our chances without validation.. i always 
thought validation would be a temporary thing..)

+another suggestion (which i don't like), could we use fsck with the YES
 (-y) option?? and md5sum to restore files that are corrupted??

response 306 of 334: Mark Unseen   Dec 15 18:13 UTC 2010

We tried all that, veek.  Banning IP addresses, tor end points,
etc.  None of it worked.

Constantly rebooting the box just for people like Chad doesn't buy
us much, and hurt us a lot (users who were doing things got denied
the service of Grex; that's not cool).  The present system raises
the bar high enough that the Chads of the world are much less
interested in bothering to attack Grex.

I really don't see why you keep bringing this up.  "Reboot when
someone crashes us" is just not an acceptable strategy.  Extra
partitions don't really help with that.  And seriously, WHY do
you want to make this change?  What's the point?  Just to get rid
of validation and resh?

resp:301 So, since RT works by people sending email to it, it can
get spam.  What's your point, exactly?
