networking - can telnet to a service, but not access service ports directly

We're running a variety of services on our cloud provider. Everything normally works fine, but occaisionally we end up with issues connecting to 1 host (which has our repos on it). We haven't been able to find a solution to the connectivity problem, so we completely rebuilt the host at a different cloud provider. Things had been running fine, but the same connectivity issue is starting again. I'll try to summarize clearly:



The host that is having connectivity issues is running Gitlab. We also ssh into that host a fair amount.



When we run into connectivity issues, we cannot access ssh, git, https etc. Pinging the host works fine. I can telnet to port 22, and get a response:



Connected to xyz.
Escape character is '^]'.
SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_7.6p1 Ubuntu-4ubuntu0.1




I can access any port on the host via Telnet, and I get back a response immediately. If I try to connect to the same host via ssh, I get:



ssh -v -v me@xyz
OpenSSH_7.9p1, LibreSSL 2.7.3
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 48: Applying options for *
debug2: resolve_canonicalize: hostname xyz is address
debug2: ssh_connect_direct
debug1: Connecting to xyz [xyz] port 22.
debug1: connect to address xyz port 22: Operation timed out
ssh: connect to host xyz port 22: Operation timed out




If I disconnect from our local network, and connect via hotspot to the Internet, I'm able to access said host properly. This only happens to users on our corporate network.



I went down the path of checking all our local routers/firewalls, and couldn't find any issue. I then connected to the Internet from the external side of our corporate firewall, and the connectivity issues immediately started again.



I've spoken with our cloud provider (Google) and they see nothing wrong with our cloud configuration or servers. I've spoken with our Internet provider, and they can't see anything wrong either.



Anyone have any ideas?



Thanks.

linux - Awstats - outputting stats for merged Access_logs only producing stats for one server's log

I've been attempting this for two weeks and I've accessed countless number of sites on this issue and it seems there is something I'm not getting here and I'm at a lost. I manged to figure out how to merge logs from two servers together. (Taking care to only merge the matching domains together) The logs from the first server span from 15 Dec 2012 to 8 April 2014 The logs from the second server span from 2 Mar 2014 to 9 April 2014 I was able to successfully merge them using the logresolvemerge.pl script simply enermerating each log and > out_putting_it_to_file Looking at the two logs from each server the format seems exactly the same. The problem I'm having is producing the stats page for the logs. The command I've boiled it down to is /usr/share/awstats/tools/awstats_buildstaticpages.pl -configdir=/home/User/Documents/conf/ -config=example.com awstatsprog=/usr/share/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl dir=/home/User/Documents/parced -month=all -year=all...

iLO 3 Firmware Update (HP Proliant DL380 G7)

The iLO web interface allows me to upload a .bin file ( Obtain the firmware image (.bin) file from the Online ROM Flash Component for HP Integrated Lights-Out. ) The iLO web interface redirects me to a page in the HP support website ( http://www.hp.com/go/iLO ) where I am supposed to find this .bin firmware, but no luck for me. The support website is a mess and very slow, badly categorized and generally unusable. Where can I find this .bin file? The only related link I am able to find asks me about my server operating system (what does this have to do with the iLO?!) and lets me download an .iso with no .bin file And also a related question: what is the latest iLO 3 version? (for Proliant DL380 G7, not sure if the iLO is tied to the server model)

hp proliant - Smart Array P822 with HBA Mode?

We get an HP DL360 G8 with an Smart Array P822 controller. On that controller will come a HP StorageWorks D2700 . Does anybody know, that it is possible to run the Smart Array P822 in HBA mode? I found only information about the P410i, who can run HBA. If this is not supported, what you think about the LSI 9207-8e controller? Will this fit good in that setup? The Hardware we get is used but all original from HP. The StorageWorks has 25 x 900 GB SAS 10K disks. Because the disks are not new I would like to use only 22 for raid6, and the rest for spare (I need to see if the disk count is optimal or not for zfs). It would be nice if I'm not stick to SAS in future. As OS I would like to install debian stretch with zfs 0.71 as file system and software raid. I have see that hp has an page for debian to. I would like to use hba mode because it is recommend, that zfs know at most as possible about the disk, and I'm independent from the raid controller. For us zfs have many benefits, ...
