General Information

Lentil performs backups. Its backup script needs further investigation to determine exactly how it works.

Network Configuration

Hostnames: lentil.unh.edu, lentil.farm.physics.unh.edu

Currently connected to the unh and farm networks via the switch and VLAN.

Access Configuration

 /etc/security/access.conf
 Any valid user can log into lentil from any machine on the Internet.

Backup Configuration

Location of Backups

/mnt/npg-daily/34/

All backup related scripts are:

 /etc/auto.npg-daily
 /usr/local/bin/rsync_backup.pl
 /etc/cron.daily/0rsync_backup
 /usr/sbin/vgcfgbackup
 /etc/rsync-backup.conf

/etc/rsync-backup.conf

# Backups are 'pull' only.  Too bad there isn't a better way to enforce this.
read only       = yes

# Oh for the ability to retain CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH, and no other.  
#uid            = root
# XXX There seems to be an obscure bug with pam_ldap and rsync whereby 
# getpwnam(3) segfaults when (and only when) archiving /etc.  Using a numeric
# uid avoids this bug.  Only verified on Fedora Core 2.
uid             = 0

# There's not much point in putting the superuser in a chroot jail
# use chroot    = yes

# This isn't really an effective "lock" per se, since the value is per-module,
# but there really ought never be more than one, and it would at least 
# ensure serialized backups.
max connections = 1

[usr_local]
        path    = /usr/local
        comment = unpackaged software

[opt]
        path    = /opt
        comment = unpackaged software

[etc]
        path    = /etc
        comment = conf files

[var]
        path    = /var
        comment = user and system storage

SNMP Configuration

 /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
 Copied from Pepper.

Smartd Configuration

The configuration file is at /etc/smartd.conf. The smartd.conf does a silent check, which only emails reports if the SMART health status comes back as failed. This smartd.conf will look different from alot of the other computers because it doesn't have a RAID card installed, so each disk is mounted seperately for backups. [[[SMARTD]] Smartd setup and configuration]

rc.local Configuration

This script is modified to run commands when the system is done powering on.

/etc/rc.local

#!/bin/sh
#
# This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts.
# You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't
# want to do the full Sys V style init stuff.

touch /var/lock/subsys/local

#This will send the boot.log to npg-admins everytime the pc is started.
mail -s "$HOSTNAME Started, Here is the boot.log" npg-admins@physics.unh.edu < /var/log/boot.log
