In this second post, we’ll see how to collect event statistics from Postfix (deliveries, rejection, and similar) and publish them in snmp to our monitoring tools, specifically but not limited to Cacti.
There’s no magic here: Postfix logs details about it’s activity to syslog, and there is there we are going to search our events. → Read More: Postfix monitoring with Cacti, my way – part 2

In the next few posts I’ll show how I collect data from Postfix, publish them into net-snmp, and graph them with Cacti.
I am interested in data about Postfix queues sizes possibly on multi-instance configurations, and about Postfix events. I decided to use SNMP instead of launching scripts directly by Cacti for a number → Read More: Postfix monitoring with Cacti, my way – part 1

I have a couple of old Dell R200 with CentOS7. I wanted to add two DRAC 4/P remote management cards I buought on ebay (attention: you must also have the mixed PCI-X-PCI-E riser for this, I used SN N4489; and → Read More: DRAC 4/P reset password on CentOS7

A quite common problem in postfix is when you find lines like this in your logs: status=bounced (mail for domain.com loops back to myself) Most of the time the problem is self-explanatory: domain.com’ MX record says mail should be delivered to the box itself, but postfix is not configured to be the destination → Read More: Postfix: mail loops back to myself

Since the recent release of Fedora 18, almost all Frank packages underwent an update. I kindly invite Frank users to visit the Frank page and the repository to see what’s new.

A simple yum update command fails. The scary thing is the error message which tells it’s impossible to connect to an IPv6 address:
# yum update Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=6&arch=x86_64&repo=os error was 14: PYCURL ERROR 7 – “Failed to connect to 2a02:2498:1:3d:5054:ff:fed3:e91a: Network is unreachable” Error: Cannot find → Read More: Yum error connecting IPv6 address

Horde-4, Imp-5 and the other usual components are available for CentOS6. The packages were originally derived from OpenSuSE some time ago, using some scripts to convert them to my preferred environment. After that conversion, they are updated independently and do not depend from OpenSuSE anymore.

This is my latest Postfix Admin package, version 2.3.5. Personally I prefer the shell, but an interface like this is much more relaxing for provider operators (and for the admin too!). This package includes three patches that implement some functionality that seem to be indispensable for some providers, to the point of changing a → Read More: New Postfix Admin package
By Lux, on March 7th, 2012 Kernel, Linux
Updated Frank packages have been published. Among them, the kernel derived from latest Fedora 16 update. This kernel, together wih the other Frank packages, satisfies completely the shorewall requirements (see shorewall show capabilities after installing xtables-addons and xtables-addons-kmod). Other packages include Openswan-2.6.37.
