Re: [Bastille-linux-discuss] Bastille and MySQL

[Reza R. <rez...@gm...>]

Michael: Yep, it is set to Y.  Should it be N?

Albert: We are still having the issue where the system goes into a
"unresponsive" state a couple times per day... during those 1-2 minute
incidents we get monitoring alerts that the server is unreachable, mysql
connections are dropped, http pages take a long time to load, and overall
slow or null performance...

Another interesting tidbit is that I setup a script that attempts to connect
to mysql every minute and output the result.  When connecting via
sql.datacolony.com or the external IP address we get those drops whenever an
"incident" occurs... but when I use localhost, the issue does not occur at
all.  I have investigated this with my webhost (replaced NIC card, settings
changed to 100/full instead of auto-neg) and they also came to the
conclusion that Bastille is causing the issue such that disabling the
firewall completely corrects the issue.  The server does not exhibit high
network, cpu, memory or disk utilization during those incidents.

Thanks.
