Hi, > > sudo-np and sudo-sed members can do everything on RIS hosts now. > > This MUST get reverted asap. > > For SED, it would be permenant. that's not up to me or you alone to decide, I'm afraid. So for now I assume things will have to be reverted to the way they were. If you / SED or NP need sudo permanently I need to discuss it at OPS. But that's a discussion we can have after the RIS troubles are gone. Cheers, E m i l .

Hi Rene, unfortunately your request arrived after normal 448-hotseat hours.. You could have called 24-7 for this.

I have given people in group sudo-np full sudo on RIS Linux hosts weesp, diemen and halfweg.

Hi Emil, Ris-int, The problem with riswhois is fixed. It turned out the advance creation of (currently empty) directories for october, november and december 2004 RIS BGP dumps triggered a bug in my code. Updated source is in (NP) CVS and halfweg:/home/risops/src/RISwhois. > I have given people in group sudo-np full sudo on RIS Linux hosts > weesp, diemen and halfweg. I think this needs to be removed after > the problems are fixed, so I will keep the ticket open till then. I would appreciate if my root privilige on halfweg could stay for somewhat longer; at least until RISwhois has been transferred and SED are comfortable with the code. (post RIPE49 - october 2004?) You can trust me to not misuse the root priviliges, I won't sudo unless there's a problem that needs my attention and will of course not touch anything I'm not responsible for. -- Rene

I tried to use xrtt to answer Ulrich Schmid on his question re: riswhois, but this ticketing system fails on me (it did work before).

Hi guys, ris-int list is to discuss RIS related stuff internally and keep the coordination between groups. From OPS, James is already there. What do you think if I add you (Bruce, Gerard, Ruud) to the list as well? This way, I would know RIS related stuff will go to right persons at OPS, and not worry each time to whom I have to CC the e-mails or so. Arife

Minutes of RIS meeting
by Arife Vural 09 Sep '04

09 Sep '04

Any comment is nothing more than welcome. Arife -- Bi-weekly RIS meeting - 6 Sep, 2004 10.00am. Attendees: Arife, Shane, Henk, Bruce, James, Gerard. - abcoude decommission abcoude will continue to run until it will be replaced by new hardware. Ordering new hardware will be done around Nov. - RIS presentation @R49 Matthew will give an update @R49. Shane, Henk, Ruud and Matthew will get together to discuss details next week. Most probably Tuesday. Ziya will help Matthew during the demo at R49. - Status of RRC14 and RRC13 RRC14 is installed, but it's not network reachable. Arife is in contact with Peter Losher to put online this week. RRC13, Bruce waits IP config from Elena. When he gets those info, he will burn the CD and deliver CD to Elena during the RIPE meeting. - Documentation Kevin did some work on SED side to move RIS documents from NP pages. Arife will look at and bit tidy up the pages. James and Bruce will prepare the OPS part of doc, and both would be ready on Wed. There would be cross link from both pages to each other. - rsync schema It's finished. How to update files on RRCs will be documented by OPS. - RIS CGI Arife and Ziya built up the frame work to build up RIS CGI by using Mason and Perl. Arife started to coding from ASinuse. After ASinuse is finished, probably today. Tomorrow, Ziya and Arife will create the package and will do the server installation and WEB interface modules on halfweg. After that point, the rest of the CGI's will be built up by using the same structure. - Beacons Henk had some talk with Olaf Maneal and Zhuoqing Morley Mao during SIGCOM. They asked to continue to announce Beacon Prefixes as we do now and announce additional Anchor prefixes per RRCs. To do this, we would need more Prefix. Henk will send an e-mail around what he discussed during SIGCOM and SED will take it from there. - AOB Gerard brought up the issue which users should stay on RIS servers. NP people would keep their users on RIS servers, but they will not have root access.

FYI: Yesterday, begining of month, script that creates the rawdata dir on RRCs did not work because of let bug [1] in bash and rawdata was not collected on RRCs from 20040901 00:00 to 20040901 08:20 UTC. I fixed it when I noticed the problem in the morning yesterday. Arife [1] In bash the following lines does not work if x value is 8. let x=x+1

old RRC08 or new rrc14
by Arife Vural 03 Sep '04

03 Sep '04

Hi James, Bruce, Do you have any idea what might have happened rrc08? It looks it is not rebooted yesterday after Joe powered it off. Shall we ask Peter do a new installation on the box? Probably, he has to choose RRC08 config from installation menu and then change the IP address and gateway afterwards. I hope he could get root login with that installation CD. Arife

decommisioning abcoude
by Gerard Leurs 02 Sep '04

02 Sep '04

Dear RIS team. Can you tell me if it is possible to start decommissioning abcoude? Some backgroundinfo: we are in the process of getting rid of all sparcs. By the end of this month only 5 sparcs will be in the SUN-support contract. And abcoude is not one of them, as it is a 2nd backup for weesp/halfweg. Thanks, Gerard.
