Hi there...
just installed the new version and tested around al little in my home network...
I'll write down evething i can see now, so if there are any qustions in the end, please ask.
FOA my Setup...
Hardware as in Signature
Config as in attachment
AV: Dual Scan
additionaly IM/P2P is set to block all except skype and Bit Torrent
4 DNATS (BitTorrent/XBOX360 default ports and [SKYPE14420]/[6112] to one client)
So lets start:
- First of all i tried Skype (again)
Just as in 7.180 my box reports a successful connection. and WOW im able to log in. Waiting about two minutes i also can get a call through.
Anyway while skype is runnung all Proxy respond very slow.
Ok call that fixed for me, but the performance is some kind of awful. and with one client active while testing, the hardware realy is not undersized.
Also "Skype Find" gets no connection and after letting in try for a few minutes astaro does not respond to anything. cant see any log entries at that time.
After shutting down skype the astaro returns to full service.
[INLINE ADDITION]
Well, after one successfull connction now nothing works again.
After letting skype try to conncect, my box takes a time out and returns when stopping skype.
tried again after a reboot and jeah it worked again...
one time.
also with skypefind
but reproducalbe without log entries just once sky is started after a reboot.
anyway sessions are reported corectly unter IM

=>3%CPU + 33% RAM through test
- Second one is BitTorrent
Can Successfully log in, get some bytes down and up but after a minute or two the system takes a break.
Only thing working is webadmin, Proxys (DNS, HTTP) dont respond any longer.
I logged in via console and checked kernel log:

----------------------------------------------------
Only thing that helped was a reboot after that.
After the socond skype test (without reboot) there it wasnt possible to connect to anything in BT.
Reboot helped here too. (wtf is this a MS firewall? [[;)]] )
also its kind of strange that i cant reach webadmin or the proxys, one thing nearly always works while the other one doesnt. and sometimes both are down.
Yes this sounds realy noobish, i know. but i cant find a system in this or get some intresting log output.
and please be sure im working with astaro a "bit" longer than since yesterday.
- IM Detection:
take a visit on kongregate.com (site with free flash games) click on any game.
next to the game there is a little flash chat loading which is blocked by the jabber IM rule.
packetfilter for this is not working.
Yeah i know... not a bug, its by design, so call it an example for tweaking the magical IM/P2P detection against false positives.
unfortunately i could not find other sites to test that behavior
(anyway i think administrators selfmade packetfilters should have a higher priority than the IM filters, since i dont want to know how many custom applications get blocked due to those many ports covered by the presets. just my opinion...)
- DHCP
for some reason i cant find out i have to resend an DHCP request again after each reboot of my box.
im realy tired of testing for today so atm i cant point to where thos comes from. maybe someone has same effects.
- QoS
i want to delete those 23 unneedet presets... where are the buttons?
im a bit helpless for today... its been a long day [[;)]]
so if you have any clues questions or tips what to look for, please let me know.
Thanks, goodnite and have a nice weekend...
Daniel
PS: im out over the WE, so i'll reply to possible questions on monday.
