Legato and NDMP
by Gavin Kelman 08 Apr '03

08 Apr '03

We've just received a nice new F825, which we're trying to integrate into our exsiting Legato Networker backup system. I've been speaking to our Legato support, but they're not getting very far, and each day that passes is another day for us without backups. We have a Quantum ATL1500 jukebox directly attached (Robot controller and one drive) to a Sun box, which is a Legato storage node. The 2nd SCSI drive is connected to the back of our F825, which picks it up fine, and is configured as an NDMP device in Networker. Now, the problem is, Networker complains that it can't establish an NDMP connection to the F825, even tho NDMP is enabled on the F825, and I've double-checked the username is root and the password is correct. Attempting to do an inventory in nwadmin fails on either device in the jukebox. Also, NDMP doesn't do incrementals the normal way, so I was thinking of just backing up the F825 over the NFS mounts, but I hear that's not a good idea with Legato. We're running DOT 6.3.1r1 and Legato Networker 6.1.3. Anyone have any suggestions, apart from "stop using Legato"? Cheers, Gavin. -- Gavin Kelman Phone : 07967 360 822 Unix Administrator Email : gavin(a)metahusky.net

RE: Security on Win2k

Thanks to all who responded. Pls check this fix in ONTAP 6.4.R1: * 91117 Incorrect permission check when creating a file from CIFS Regards, Bill -----Original Message----- From: Mike Sphar [mailto:mike.sphar@Remedy.COM] Sent: Thursday, March 27, 2003 8:22 PM To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: RE: Security on Win2k This doesn't sound correct to me. Have you actually tested it? In windows network permissions, share permissions are applied first, then individual file or directory ACLs are applied, and the most restrictive permissions always apply. So if a share is read-only to a user, then even if all the files in that share are writeable by everyone, then that user should not be able to update those files or create any new files or directories in that share. I would be very surprised to find that Netapp was not emulating the standard windows file server behavior in this case. -- Mike Sphar - Sr Systems Administrator - Remedy, a BMC Software Company -----Original Message----- From: Bill Bello [mailto:Bill.Bello@hds.com] Sent: Thursday, March 27, 2003 6:46 PM To: toasters(a)mathworks.com Subject: Security on Win2k All, A question has come up in our lab on the subject. If 'read only' is set on the filer for a CIFS share, a user can still have full rights to that share IF security is NOT set in Win2k as well. Has anyone figured a way to make the share secure from the filer only? Thanks in advance.

quota question
by Charles Bartels 02 Apr '03

02 Apr '03

Hi Folks, I have yet another quota question. Do I need explicit extries in the quotas file for all PC users or can I use a wildcard? The reason I'm asking is that all the PC users get mapped to "pcuser" which is the setting in wafl.default_unix_user. So the result is that *all* the users get counted in the same quota. Thanks. -Charles Bartels

RE: virus scanner
by Mike Sphar 02 Apr '03

02 Apr '03

When we first set ours up, we had the scan servers deregistering because of network errors due to speed/duplex mismatches. (Seems that no matter how often I tell everyone never use auto-negotiate it still keeps happening...) It's definitely worth double-checking the port settings and switch settings of all the systems involved just in case. In our case when the client deregistered, fixing the network problem didn't get the client to re-register, but rebooting the scan server fixed it. It's not clear to me why the loss of a scan server would increase CPU usage on the filer side. The filer is just sending scan requests to the scan servers. With only one server up it's still sending the same number of requests. Especially with those requests being non-blocking that doesn't make sense to me. In fact, it makes me more suspicious of a network issue. Certain types of network problems can cause significant cpu usage. -- Mike Sphar - Sr Systems Administrator - Remedy, a BMC Software Company -----Original Message----- From: Bui, Marcus [mailto:Marcus.Bui@aiminvestments.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 02, 2003 7:47 AM To: 'Merkin, David S'; 'toasters(a)mathworks.com' Subject: RE: virus scanner David, Yes, the virus scanner is on the same segment using Gig NIC.
