NTLM auth popup boxes && Solaris 8 tuning for upgrade into 2.7.4

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



hello all,

I currently get some sun v210 boxes running solaris 8 and squid-2.6.12
and samba 3.0.20b I will upgrade these proxies into 2.7.4/3.0.32 next
monday but before doing this I would like to ask you your advices and/or
experiences with tuning these kind of boxes.

the service is running well today except we regularly get authentication
popup boxes. This is really exasperating our Users. I already spent lot
of times on the net in the hope finding a clear explanation about it but
i am still searching. I already configured starting 128 ntlm_auth
processes on each of my servers. This gives better results but problem
still remains. I also made some patching in my new package I will deploy
next week by overwrting some samba values .. below my little patch ..

I currently do not use 'auth_param ntlm keep_alive on' because I do not
know if it will not cause some side effects for web browser used in our
company (ie/windows xp sp2).

I already use some parameters today like these ones below ...

set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=16
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=32
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=2097152

after some investigations on my servers, I notice we often get lots of
connections in status CLOSE_WAIT and FIN_WAIT_2. I also get lots of
connections in status ESTABLISHED. If I have a look on squid statistics
these are some files giving an idea on the load handled by our machines
..

SUNW,Sun-Fire-V210
2048 Memory size
bge0 100-fdx (or) 1000-fdx
client_http.requests = 242/sec
server.http.requests = 163/sec
Number of clients accessing cache: 1486
cpu_usage = 45.065136%
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s5    20655529 15015444 5433530  74%  /var/cache0
/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s5    20655529 14971972 5477002  74%  /var/cache1
1746418 Store Entries
(some) 1265 ESTABLISHED tcp connections (at high load)
(some) 132 CLOSE_WAIT (or)  FIN_WAIT_2 connections

so these servers are relatively heavy loaded and this is the reason why
I think I still can tune some tcp/udp values in order to optimize and
reduce the cpu usage on my servers. I already found some ideas on the
net like these values below but this is not guraranteed ..

ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_time_wait_interval 60000
ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_fin_wait_2_flush_interval 67500
ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_keepalive_interval 15000

many thks to help me because we are really in trouble and I am sure we
can solve these little problems by setting/tuning some parameters.
