OpenSSH on Solaris 6, 7 and 8 error message: Couldn’t connect to PRNGD socket “/var/spool/prngd/pool”: Connection refused

Posted by Emerson Takahashi on November 10, 2010

If you tried to start sshd on Solaris and appeared an error message saying it couldn’t connect to PRNGD socket, you need to start this daemon first.

root@solaris6:/ # /etc/init.d/sshd start
Couldn’t connect to PRNGD socket “/var/spool/prngd/pool”: Connection refused
couldn’t read entropy commands file /usr/local/etc/ssh_prng_cmds: No such file or directory

Run /etc/init.d/prngd start and then start ssh again

root@solaris6:/ # /etc/init.d/prngd start

root@solaris6:/# /etc/init.d/sshd start

The daemon should be running now

root@solaris6:/ # ps -ef | grep ssh

Acessing a console of a domain in a Sun Enterprise 10K

Posted by Emerson Takahashi on August 22, 2010

Here is the procedure to reset a domain in a Sun E10K. I don’t know if there is some detail missing but here is what was done with help of my friend at work.

To access the console of a domain hosted in a Sun E10K, first you need to know which number is this domain. I grepped the /etc/hosts to find out

root@ssp:/ # grep -i e10kdomain1 /etc/hosts
192.168.8.35 e10kdomain1 dom07 # 10.10.12.17 SB 06

Become the user ssp and enter the domain hostname

root@ssp:/ # su – ssp
Use of this network is restricted to authorized users only. User activity may be monitored and/or recorded. Anyone using this network expressly consents to such monitoring and/or recording. BE ADVISED: if possible criminal activity is detected, these records, along with certain personal information, may be provided to law enforcement officials.

Please enter SUNW_HOSTNAME: dom07

Use netcon to connect to the console

ssp:dom07% netcon
trying to connect…
connected.
Unlocked write permission is granted.

I connected to the domain’s console and the domain is locked. To reset it, you’ll need to know the system board to turn it off. Run domain_status and check the last column

ssp:dom07% domain_status
DOMAIN TYPE PLATFORM OS SYSBDS
dom07 Ultra-Enterprise-10000 OnDemand02 5.8 6
dom10 Ultra-Enterprise-10000 OnDemand02 5.8 9
dom15 Ultra-Enterprise-10000 OnDemand02 5.8 14
dom09 Ultra-Enterprise-10000 OnDemand02 5.8 8
dom01 Ultra-Enterprise-10000 OnDemand02 5.8 0
dom02 Ultra-Enterprise-10000 OnDemand02 5.8 1
dom05 Ultra-Enterprise-10000 OnDemand02 5.8 4

To power down you issue bringup -A off and the system board that the domain is running on

ssp:dom07% bringup -A off SB 6
Trying to get bringup.lock lock… OK
Checking that all other domains are down……… NO
Bringing up domain dom07

Running snoop to check the network traffic

Posted by Emerson Takahashi on August 13, 2010

Running snoop to check the network traffic. In this example, I’m generating an output file named /tmp/networkfile, recording everything that’s coming from 192.168.98.98 on port 80/TCP

root@solaris:~ # snoop -o /tmp/networkfile 192.168.98.98 port 80 and tcp
Using device /dev/e1000g0 (promiscuous mode)

Listening a specific network interface

root@solaris:~ # snoop -d e1000g0 -o /tmp/networkfile

Creating a SVM metadevice and an UFS filesystem

Posted by Emerson Takahashi on August 8, 2010

The storage team created new LUNs and presented them to the server. I need to check which disks doesn’t have a label yet

root@solaris:~ # echo | format | more
Searching for disks…done

emcpower70a: configured with capacity of 11.24GB
emcpower71a: configured with capacity of 11.24GB
emcpower72a: configured with capacity of 11.24GB

These disks are PowerPath devices and the only thing diferenciating them are the controllers. One path comes from c3 and the other one comes from c4. After I apply a label on the PowerPath devices, I create a new Solaris Volume Manager metadevice with metainit

root@solaris:/ # metainit d74 1 1 /dev/dsk/emcpower68c
d74: Concat/Stripe is setup

I could specify the metadevice with the options 4 1 disk 1 disk 1 disk 1 disk but I find that if I attach one by one there is less chance of error

root@solaris:/ # metattach d74 /dev/dsk/emcpower69c
d74: component is attached
root@solaris:/ # metattach d74 /dev/dsk/emcpower70c
d74: component is attached
root@solaris:/ # metattach d74 /dev/dsk/emcpower71c
d74: component is attached

Checking the metadevice and which physical disks are being used

root@solaris:~ # metastat -p d74
d74 4 1 /dev/dsk/emcpower68c \
1 /dev/dsk/emcpower69c \
1 /dev/dsk/emcpower70c \
1 /dev/dsk/emcpower71c

Creating an UFS filesystem on this metadevice

root@solaris:/ # newfs /dev/md/rdsk/d74
/dev/md/rdsk/d74: Unable to find Media type. Proceeding with system determined parameters.
newfs: construct a new file system /dev/md/rdsk/d74: (y/n)? y

93986336, 94084768, 94183200

Creating the mount point for the filesystem

root@solaris:/ # mkdir /mountpoint

Here I’m setting the read and browse properties for the directory to avoid problems if the umask is different than 022

root@solaris:/ # chmod 755 /mountpoint

I mount the filesystem and specify the metadevice

root@solaris:/ # mount /dev/md/dsk/d74 /mountpoint

root@solaris:/ # df -h /mountpoint
Filesystem size used avail capacity Mounted on
/dev/md/dsk/d74 44G 45M 44G 1% /mountpoint

If needed, now with the filesystem mounted you can change the owner and group of this filesystem

root@solaris:/ # ls -ld /mountpoint
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 512 jul 22 16:19 /nfein

I made this new filesystem for the DBA to hold some files. So I’m changing the owner to oracle and group to dba

root@solaris:/ # chown oracle:dba /mountpoint

root@solaris:/ # ls -ld /mountpoint
drwxr-xr-x 3 oracle dba 512 jul 22 16:19 /nfein

Solaris passwd: System error: no files password

Posted by Emerson Takahashi on July 30, 2010

root@solaris:/ # passwd emerson
New Password:
Re-enter new Password:
passwd: System error: no files password for emerson.
Permission denied

In this case there was a problem in the /etc/passwd file. There was a blank line between two users.
