| 06:46:03 | spatialguru: | haven't been some changes to LDAP in the last couple days have there? |
| 06:46:23 | spatialguru: | I'm troublingshooting LDAP auth based login for the journal mgt. system.. |
| 06:46:41 | spatialguru: | and i'm 90% sure it's a problem with my upgrade, but thought I better asked about ldap just in case : ) |
| 06:52:14 | : | * mauricio_ is away: Gone away for now |
| 07:18:41 | spatialguru: | ping hobu frankw - any LDAP changes over past 3 days? |
| 07:21:13 | jasonbirch: | Anyone else having problems reaching the main osgeo server or trac? |
| 07:23:40 | spatialguru: | jasonbirch: trying |
| 07:24:05 | spatialguru: | i can't either |
| 07:24:57 | jasonbirch: | Looks like it was up for a minute ( loaded a couple pages, but then stalled on external files: images, css ) |
| 07:26:39 | spatialguru: | hobu: you working on something? |
| 07:28:32 | spatialguru: | i think i see some bots about .. but i assume that's normal |
| 07:30:32 | spatialguru: | restarting httpd |
| 07:30:38 | spatialguru: | my only fix ; ) |
| 07:31:25 | spatialguru: | jasonbirch: site loads fast now : ) |
| 07:31:29 | spatialguru: | get it while it's hot! |
| 07:32:03 | jasonbirch: | spatialguru: limited time offer? : ) |
| 07:34:43 | : | * mauricio_ is back. |
| 07:37:30 | spatialguru: | jasonbirch: perhaps :S |
| 07:51:00 | spatialguru: | hi frankw |
| 07:51:46 | spatialguru: | boy, i'd like to shove some of these web bots down the drain :P |
| 07:52:03 | spatialguru: | 4+ at once hitting our site |
| 07:54:23 | FrankW: | Ah, you tracked down some of our traffic? |
| 07:54:26 | spatialguru: | wow 6 now |
| 07:54:29 | FrankW: | Are they obeying the robots.txt? |
| 07:54:36 | FrankW: | How did you analyse this? |
| 07:54:38 | spatialguru: | I'm not sure how that works |
| 07:54:52 | spatialguru: | I'm tailing the access_log, greping for 'bot' |
| 07:55:09 | FrankW: | We do want bots to index parts of our site. |
| 07:55:17 | spatialguru: | googlebot, msnbot, yahoo slurp, snapbot, speedy spirder.. .guh |
| 07:55:24 | spatialguru: | yeah, catch 22 eh? |
| 07:55:57 | FrankW: | Normal page requests from bots should not be a problem. |
| 07:56:12 | FrankW: | The danger ( IMHO ) is if they ask for expensive pages - things like big changesets in trac for instance. |
| 07:56:14 | spatialguru: | yeah hopfully its hitting caches |
| 07:56:38 | FrankW: | so, for instance, http://trac.osgeo.org/robots.txt masks out substantial areas of Trac queries. |
| 07:56:55 | spatialguru: | seems like normal drupal and OCS requests at the moment |
| 07:57:00 | spatialguru: | and maillist |
| 07:57:16 | FrankW: | Anything that looks particularly expensive? |
| 07:57:33 | spatialguru: | i don't think so |
| 07:58:00 | FrankW: | There are also a lot of access_log files so if you are only looking at the default one that isn't a very broad picture of activity. |
| 07:58:23 | spatialguru: | ah right okay |
| 07:58:56 | FrankW: | It is a pretty steady drum beat of activity. |
| 08:00:20 | spatialguru: | msnbot can't seem to get enough ; ) it's doing the most at the moment |
| 08:01:59 | FrankW: | If you look at http://trac.osgeo.org/server-status there is no indication that the drupal or mail archive requests are taking long to process. |

| 08:04:05 | spatialguru: | CPU column tells processing time? |
| 08:05:07 | spatialguru: | heh - awstats says we've got 96 different bots this month alone |
| 08:06:11 | spatialguru: | google, msn, yahoo = 9, 10, 3 GB bandwidth respectively |
| 08:06:39 | FrankW: | spatialguru: any clue back on peer1 ticket submission? |
| 08:08:17 | spatialguru: | frankw: haven't heard back yet |
| 08:08:20 | spatialguru: | can try phoning today |
| 08:13:33 | FrankW: | spatialguru: that would be appreciated. It's not good for us to be in a position where we can't submit tickets to peer1. |
| 08:14:02 | spatialguru: | yeah.. can't say i ever used it.. so I'm a bit lost as to what happened |
| 08:16:10 | spatialguru: | nice, 70% of our bandwidth looks like bot traffic.. beautiful |
| 08:18:52 | FrankW: | Is that awstats aggregated information? |
| 08:19:17 | FrankW: | It would be interesting to skim the bot traffic to see if it is reading large objects it ought not, or pulling from unexpected areas of the web site. |
| 08:19:42 | FrankW: | But, generally I think it is to be expected that a substantial portion of our traffic is bots. |
| 08:23:32 | spatialguru: | yeah as long as we aren't paying for their bandwidth : ) |
| 08:24:18 | spatialguru: | does 25GB+ in less than a month assume a few large files are getting downloaded? hmm |
| 08:24:40 | spatialguru: | anyway, I'm not sure if I can find the large ones.. not from within awstats specifically for bots at least |
| 08:24:57 | spatialguru: | at the moment i'm trying to get OJS up and running - logins fail after upgrade |
| 08:25:17 | spatialguru: | but only logins that use LDAP.. |
| 08:25:32 | spatialguru: | so I'm guessing their ldap plugin changed |
| 08:26:02 | FrankW: | 25GB+ traffic does not necessarily indicate large files. Good luck with OJS. |

| 18:57:43 | mleslie: | rgould: will do. When caffeine fails, add taurine : ) |
