I stupidly chose and intel driver which when i run the portupgrade ends with the following error "you cant choose both i810 and intel drivers as they are conflicting" Where do I find the config that I change to stop the build process including the intel driver. I've looked in the x11-driver makefile and cant see anything out of the ordinary. Or how do I make the build process bring the blue config screen up again so I can deselect the intel driver. Any help would be much appreciated. --------------------------------- Yahoo! Answers - Get better answers from someone who knows. Tryit now.

I upgraded to 6.2p7 from 6.2p6 and this problem started happening, but only with dhcpd. In fact I can run the old dhcpd fine, but the new binary deos not run fine. The old binary does a dhcp reply from [dhcpd ip address] to 255.255.255.255. The new binary does a dhcp reply from [dhcpd ip address] to 192.168.0.255. Windows is not getting the reply from the new binary. This is not the correct behavior. In fact there is a bug in OLD 2.2 linux kernels that says that the kernel routing is messed up (see isc-dhcp3 web site docs).

So the reply that should be sent to 255.255.255.255:68 is sent to 192.168.0.255:68. Then, because the client has no IP address or has defaulted it to a 169.x.x.x(MS defaults) it does not seem to be getting the reply and thus never gets an address assigned. I have no problems running dhcp3 with windows clients at all... As far as I can tell the broadcast address of a subnet *never* is 255.255.255.255.

It is for DHCPDISCOVER, since there is no subnet yet:
# dhclient -d fxp0
DHCPDISCOVER on fxp0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 4

As for the option you're looking for, man dhcpd.conf showed me this:

Prior to about August 12, the system had been quite stable. Since that time, I am finding lots of calcru warnings, which often cause system services to fail when they see unorthodox time shifts. Section 5.19 of the handbook appears not to be current any longer, suggesting setting kern.timecounter.method=1. kern.timecounter.hardware=i8254 also does not improve things. Other suggestions?

X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 02 Sep 2007 03:14:07 -0000 BACKGROUND I'm experimenting with gmirror on the root partition on a test system running FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE. I have two physical disks on the same IDE header (master and slave). This was setup following the tutorial in the handbook. The system boots and mounts root from /dev/mirror/gm0s1a as expected. The reported status of the mirror was active, complete, up and running with both disks synced. Everything is as it should be. PROBLEM When I simulate a disk failure on the slave drive (the first consumer in the mirror), by disconnecting the power input and booting the system, the following occurs: 1. The BIOS complains of a disk error, but otherwise continues to boot. 2. The master boot record is found and boot is executed. 3. boot complains, letting me know the default disk it boots from is gone and prompts for manual specification. This is fine and I specify the alternate disk to boot from. 4. loader(8) is found and presents its menu, it starts the automatic boot sequence with the default kernel. 5. It successfully finds the kernel and executes it. 6. The kernel output "Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/mirror/gm0s1a", fails and I am prompted for the location of a root partition. I digress just a moment here as the system appears to hang, as keyboard input is not detected and at this point on the boot phase I have no other metric from which to judge whether it is actually hanged or not. The keyboard was detected prior to this failure, as reported in the kernel's output and the keyboard is known to work on this system. So that's weird, but it even if I could type in something, it wouldn't matter because it's looking in the correct location for root, it's just that location doesn't exist...moving right along. The provider, /dev/mirror/gm0, is not being created. This is significant for obvious reasons: no mirror means no provider which means no root. The module /boot/kernel/geom_mirror.ko is loaded, as I have manually loaded it via the loader(8) prompt and attempted the simulated failure again with identical results. It's the provider that isn't being created, for whatever reason. Suggestions? (Other than purchasing a hardware RAID card). -Modulok- From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Sep 2 03:17:21 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 61D4416A417 for ; Sun, 2 Sep 2007 03:17:21 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from stapleton.41@gmail.com) Received: from fk-out-0910.google.com (fk-out-0910.google.com [209.85.128.190]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E2B1413C465 for ; Sun, 2 Sep 2007 03:17:20 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from stapleton.41@gmail.com) Received: by fk-out-0910.google.com with SMTP id b27so1248728fka for ; Sat, 01 Sep 2007 20:17:09 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=beta; h=domainkey-signature:received:received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition; b=at2cq3ysSHquw0IK8qB8+VBCAcw6cfTsODY3zd2tdcxzP7zI4odJ62rOVYIMx7xvEpgUVkeiJ0SBOYfvIpi0Bv3e8lX9Z3k0p5ekwIRrlaBtSCuRQLGuC2/I9o7CXQCxfC8jILIjMXzybcJsNn92G7fJ3/oed+6hvCyBMw7LmtQ= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=beta; h=received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition; b=Gikr2XKMCOtBfBxorzny0VmZfMYtD+glF/jRildVKNnjrK7urn64uO72k3/jn7b8wPS4vVzRk9YYSww4pC4BF5blJOYpU4tAQuyBX6D+kDn0h9reg/QbFlX/cWPaPddlNECI+mpeoI+vpsV5AUD5Qs2jRMq9oc7lps7L+IxBmhQ= Received: by 10.82.177.3 with SMTP id z3mr351806bue.1188703028654; Sat, 01 Sep 2007 20:17:08 -0700 (PDT) Received: by 10.82.191.14 with HTTP; Sat, 1 Sep 2007 20:17:08 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <80f4f2b20709012017m181fe312s14f7d4f60f9ba295@mail.gmail.com> Date: Sat, 1 Sep 2007 23:17:08 -0400 From: "Jim Stapleton" To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Subject: problems with a rc.d script I'm creating X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 02 Sep 2007 03:17:21 -0000 I'm trying to create an rc.d script to start akpop3d (it doesn't seem to come with one).

It appears to be a "feature" of certain Motherboards. If you're lucky there will be some BIOS options you can toggle to make it behave better -- usually to do will telling the motherboard *not* to do any sort of RAID stuff itself. Otherwise, look for BIOS updates, or switch to a different Motherboard. Systems supplied with hot swap drives (meaning SATA rather than IDE) tend to work better. Or install a hardware RAID controller. I've also a feeling that there's a behavioural difference between 'only one drive present' and 'one working drive and a blank disk' but haven't really tested that theory out, as we solved the original problem by other means.

What I do is move load_rc_config before setting defaults. General order becomes: name=foo rcvar=`set_rcvar` load_rc_config ${name} foo_default=${foo_default:-"default value"} run_rc_command "$1" Seems to work, maybe I'll figure out the proper way once I finish reading: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/rc-scripting/index.html -- Mel People using reply to all on lists, must think I need 2 copies.

For example, Windows has drivers for everything - many are crap, but they still exist - and a few applications you just can't replace with anything else. Ubuntu, the one you are considering, is based on Debian, which I consider excellent, especially for servers. But if you are coming from a FreeBSD background, Ubuntu will seem rather "restrictive" and "easy". It is an easy desktop for *NIX beginners, and it is now marketed as the Linux you will never have to touch the command line. As I recall, the default install will not even setup gcc, although the package (build-essential) is on CD. There are obviously a lot of helper apps, like automatic installation of codecs etc. but it is still Linux. If you are a power user you will need to tinker it, and there will be things missing you will need to install. Example: First time I tried to mount some NFS shares, they were taking ages. I found out it was missing the nfs-common package. Maybe a beginner does not care about it, but I consider this basic functionality and expect it to be there (or that I will be informed it is not, beforehand). I also need the compiler, kernel headers and stuff to compile kernel modules. Ubuntu seems to have a lot of ready made things, good for beginners but quite limiting for me, I have to actually rip things out to install my stuff (e.g. disable their versions of some restricted drivers to install mine). That being said, it is making an alternate, non-Windows desktop accessible to a lot of people, which I consider a good thing. Though I suggest Ubuntu to enthusiastic Linux beginners, I find it difficult to give an argument for anyone with an average FreeBSD knowledge. At home I mostly use Fedora as a Linux desktop. The part of your post I don't really understand, is what is really bothering you with your FreeBSD install. Are you missing programs / features you just can't live without? Is it something to do with the ports / packages? Installing, customizing and becoming familiar with your FreeBSD system does take some time, but this is followed by a very long effortless stable operation. Assuming a typical installation where users' needs don't constantly change, you can easily maintain a FreeBSD install with minimum hassle. And how is Ubuntu going to be any easier for your wife? Assuming you are administering the machine, a FreeBSD with a Gnome desktop will be more or less the same from the user standpoint to Ubuntu (or any other distro) with Gnome.

Seems obvious, but .. Sort of. Swap backing will still work when you have no swap, and it's still faster than malloc backing. The problem is that I think backing store reservation ("-o reserve") doesn't work unless you have actual swap to back everything, whereas with malloc backing it reserves in memory. This means that it is easy to overcommit memory and the system will probably panic when it suddenly finds no free memory for the md (as in the original email). Ideally if no swap was configured, swap backing would also reserve the space in memory, and then I am not aware of any other reasons to continue using malloc backing.

If you want to do this then the registry fix is the way. If you want to simply sync with a non-domain time source then group policy is the best way on Windows Server operating systems.

Getting the NTP server running was a piece of cake following the instructions in the online handbook. Recently I was asked to sync a bunch of windows machines (10 of them) to my NTP server. Now I'm not a windows person, so I asked one of the windows people to figure out his side since my side was up and running. He wrote this little .bat file to run on the windows boxes to be sync'd. Its pretty straight forward....just save it as a .bat file (time.bat) and run it from your XP box. Make sure to enter your NTP IP address where the x's are below. It seems to work fine for us. Your mileage may vary. There may be better/easier ways of doing this, but this is what works ok for us.... This sounds like a bad idea to me. I seem to remember there's a registry setting where you can specify explicit NTP servers for Windows. Any reason why he went this route? -- Bill Moran http://www.potentialtech.com _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Sep 2 11:18:07 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A615C16A418 for ; Sun, 2 Sep 2007 11:18:07 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from kris@FreeBSD.org) Received: from weak.local (hub.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::36]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EBC2713C459; Sun, 2 Sep 2007 11:18:06 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from kris@FreeBSD.org) Message-ID: <46DA9BED.20804@FreeBSD.org> Date: Sun, 02 Sep 2007 13:18:05 +0200 From: Kris Kennaway User-Agent: Thunderbird 2.0.0.6 (Macintosh/20070728) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: James Long References: <20070902012446.GA17048@ns.umpquanet.com> In-Reply-To: <20070902012446.GA17048@ns.umpquanet.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Recent update to RELENG_6 creates lots of calcru warnings X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 02 Sep 2007 11:18:07 -0000 James Long wrote: > I'm running FreeBSD RELENG_6 on a Compaq DL380 G2 dual PIII-1.4GHz with > an SMP kernel. dmesg below. > > Prior to about August 12, the system had been quite stable. > > Since that time, I am finding lots of calcru warnings, which often > cause system services to fail when they see unorthodox time shifts. > > Section 5.19 of the handbook appears not to be current any longer, > suggesting setting kern.timecounter.method=1. > kern.timecounter.hardware=i8254 also does not improve things. > > Other suggestions? > > Thanks, > > Jim > > > Sep 1 18:00:30 ns sudo: james : TTY=ttyp0 ; PWD=/usr/local/www/sites/com.umpquanet/support ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/sbin/sysctl -w kern.timecounter.hardware=i8254 > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: runtime went backwards from 1343309 usec to 1178478 usec for pid 3663 (hpasmd) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: negative runtime of -1274607 usec for pid 3660 (hpasmd) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: runtime went backwards from 6470361 usec to 5811413 usec for pid 995 (postgres) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: negative runtime of -1099076 usec for pid 36 (pagedaemon) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: negative runtime of -5928105 usec for pid 35 (fdc0) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: negative runtime of -1526937 usec for pid 32 (acpi_cooling0) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: runtime went backwards from 8015143 usec to 1437770 usec for pid 15 (yarrow) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: negative runtime of -12360933 usec for pid 2 (g_event) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: negative runtime of -2106022786 usec for pid 13 (swi4: clock sio) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: runtime went backwards from 295074296 usec to 292484248 usec for pid 1 (init) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: runtime went backwards from 1343309 usec to 1178478 usec for pid 3663 (hpasmd) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: negative runtime of -1274607 usec for pid 3660 (hpasmd) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: runtime went backwards from 6470361 usec to 5811413 usec for pid 995 (postgres) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: negative runtime of -1099076 usec for pid 36 (pagedaemon) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: negative runtime of -5928105 usec for pid 35 (fdc0) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: negative runtime of -1526937 usec for pid 32 (acpi_cooling0) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: runtime went backwards from 8015143 usec to 1437770 usec for pid 15 (yarrow) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: negative runtime of -12360933 usec for pid 2 (g_event) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: negative runtime of -2106022734 usec for pid 13 (swi4: clock sio) > Sep 1 18:02:44 ns kernel: calcru: runtime went backwards from 295074296 usec to 292484248 usec for pid 1 (init) > > dmesg output: > > Copyright (c) 1992-2007 The FreeBSD Project. > Copyright (c) 1979, 1980, 1983, 1986, 1988, 1989, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994 > The Regents of the University of California.

Also, any dir in /etc/ that's not from the base system (/etc/X11* comes to mind). To save yourself a headache, I'd rm -rf /etc/rc.d before doing installworld and run mergemaster as mergemaster -i. I *think* mergemaster just checks if a CVSId is different, not older. Same for make delete-old whether a file is in the base system and not in the source tree.

I may put together some BSD specific documentation for this port, and possible add some build-time options to the port. Also, if memory serves me right, ipfw's divert may not be modifying the packets : i have used ipfw diver with the tcpmss daemon and there were no issues - of course, it may be that tcpmss checked with ipfw's table to see what change had been done, in which case netsed should support it too.

I am one of those sad cases who used FreeBSD for many years as my primary desktop at home, and then switched to Ubuntu about 6 months ago. I still run FreeBSD on an older server, that runs round the clock and is 100% reliable. I was only slightly frustrated by FreeBSD, mainly because of my inability to get a Hauuppage TV card to work, even after a few queries on this list. I also found that other multimedia software seemed more available and easier to set up - I not saying they were impossible, just that I seemed to be spending more time trying to get them to work than I wanted. Ubuntu works very well 'out of the box', and their Synaptic tool for finding and installing software is excellent. I am now running VirtualBox under Ubuntu, and it works extremely well; I can run W2K and XP for occasional use as guests, and what seems like full speed. (Much faster than QEMU, which I used before.) Both KDE and GNOME work fine, and for basic work with Firefox, Thunderbird, OpenOffice and Postgresql, there is nothing much to choose between FreeBSD and Ubuntu from an office user's point of view. Both work great. Both seem rock solid, and recover well from the occasional power outages I get at my new home. (Ought to get a battery backup before disaster hits one day, I suppose). All the development tools are a few mouse-clicks away. I may switch back one day, as I like FreeBSD very much for its sound design and underlying philosophy.

I feel 'guilty' about having changed! from my experience as an admin over at openaddict.com, ubuntu really seems to have ascended quickly thru the ranks of the quality distributions. if you take a look at distrowatch.com, ubuntu is also the most highest clicked on distro. based on behavior from what i see from the linux community, it looks like: > "Oh yeah.

If another process is running, dbus-daemon only hogs about 50% of the CPU, but this is still frustrating. If, for example, I am compiling a port, dbus-daemon takes about 50% of my CPU time, leaving only half the processor's time for compiling. I am fairly new to xfce, and googling the issue hasn't helped me out. Any ideas? How can I fix dbus so it doesn't use so much CPU, or how can I disable it completely? I know it is used for inter-application communication, but I'm not entirely sure I need it (I don't see any adverse effects when I kill it manually). I don't see anything unusual in /var/log/messages, nor any errors in ~/.xsession-errors.

Two years ago, at the request of my IT department, I started looking to move a database server back to Linux. Unfortunately(?), I found that each Linux distribution came with either problems or limitations. Several distros worked well out of the box; but I still had problems getting the applications I wanted working either because of bugs or license politics. I never made the move. Don't kid yourself, even open source applications and operating systems go through occasional periods where technical know-how is needed, even *Ubuntu. If you don't believe me, browse through the email lists of any *BSD or Linux operating system. This month's edition of Linux Format has an article documenting an experiment where 3 newbies are asked to perform various tasks in Linux. You may find this article useful. If the original poster is leaving FreeBSD to save time and make his wife's computing experience a pleasant one, I recommend Mac OS X. It comes with all of the advantages of Apple's understanding of users and user interfaces. Also, you can install your favorite unix apps via macports. In my home, I use Mac OS X for photo editing and creating slideshow DVDs. I use FreeBSD as my desktop and a database server.

To answer your question, it's a matter of access for both me and my wife. = Due=20 to my job, we travel quite a bit.

For me, it's the hours I spend pouring over it, trying to= =20 get it to work for her. Personally, I prefer to build everything from ports because I can get the=20 custom builds. On this machine, that takes quite a bit of time. In one ca= se=20 (when FreeBSD ports went to x.org7.2 ), it took over a week to upgrade (I=20 arrived at a hotel and immediately started the upgrade, and when it came ti= me=20 a week later to check out, I had to stop it... That ended up creating a hu= ge=20 mess)... I'd like to think I'm pretty familiar with the BSDs.

Except for apps in the ports, because cpan/cpanp can not register *port* dependencies. RUN_DEPENDS does not mean "check if this file exists", it means "register a dependency on this port". What it does is: 1) check if the port is installed and if not install it. 2) add a line @pkgdep portname-version to $PKGDB/portname-version/+CONTENTS 3) add a line @DEPORIGIN:category/origin to $PKGDB/portname-version/+CONTENTS 4) add a line portname-version to $PKGDB/depname-version/+REQUIRED_BY If you wanna get rid of this problem, you could use an AFTER_INSTALL hack in pkgtools.conf to undo 2)-4). Messy, but works. Much cleaner is to just use the ports system p5-*. It does it's job very well and since you're familiar with cpan/cpanp I'm sure you'll have no problem installing modules that might not exist in the freebsd ports into a directory *outside* the ports hierarchy (/usr/local) and add this to the module search path. -- Mel People using reply to all on lists, must think I need 2 copies.

Sorry, but I am afraid that if you insist on not using Perl modules installed via ports this means you cannot expect any ports depending on Perl modules to work. It might be fixable in this particular instance (did you provide a patch in your PR? thought so...), but you cannot expect it to work in general. Cheers, \Anton. -- We're going for 'working' here.

Getting the NTP server running was a piece of cake following the instructions in the online handbook. Recently I was asked to sync a bunch of windows machines (10 of them) to my NTP server. Now I'm not a windows person, so I asked one of the windows people to figure out his side since my side was up and running. He wrote this little .bat file to run on the windows boxes to be sync'd. Its pretty straight forward....just save it as a .bat file (time.bat) and run it from your XP box. Make sure to enter your NTP IP address where the x's are below. It seems to work fine for us.

I was about to flash the firmware on my machine's built-in DVD drive to change the encoding when I decided to try an external DVD drive that I know for sure played Region 1 DVDs (or at least, it did in Windows). Lo and behold, it had the same problem. Turns out that the perms on the drive were 640, making it 666 fixed the problem. Weird.

Installing from the package has always caused problems for me. I run XFCE on three workstations -- though I run -STABLE -- all of them had the same problem. I know, not much help.

Problem =========== I want to ask, how to set in Krusader 1.80.0 key binding or action such: [Shift] + [Delete] -> delete file permanently This is not default under FreeBSD, why? On the page: http://krusader.sourceforge.net/handbook/basic.html#deleting I'm reading that: "Deleting files/directories is done by selecting them and pressing F8 or Delete. By defaultit will be moved to KDE's Trash, Shift+Delete will delete the file permanently." But when I'm looking on shortcat in Krusader in FreeBSD: Settings -> Configure Shortcuts and then Action Shortcut Alternate Cut to Clipboard Ctrl+X Shift+Delete Delete F8 Why this is that done, that [Shift+ Delete] is binding to action "Cut to Clipboard"? I also cannot find option as "Delete permanently". Of course I can reasign Shift+Delete to action "Delete" as alternace shortcut, but this don't delete file permanently, but move file to Trash. I can only delete file permanently from poupmenu, where there are two option: "Delete" and "Move to Trash" (and others of course). 2. Problem ========= Why I cannot connect by ssh (sftp) to other machine? Under Debian I can. Please check what I am trying to do: Tools -> New Net Connections ... then Protocol: sftp:// Host: a.b.c.d Port: 22 user and password and then click Connect. Then I obtain: "Error encountered while talking to ssh." and then I obtain second error: "Unknown error" "Error encountered while talking to ssh." It only work when I connect by protocol "fish://" Why? Why protocol "sftp://" does not work? As I mention earlier under Linux it work. I'm sorry for my English, and I'm sorry for the details, but it should work exactly as stated in Krusader handbook, no mater what this is Linux or Unix it should works as expected. Please for help with this issues or comments, why this is that. I'm using FreeBSD 6.2, Krusader from ports (x11-fm/krusader).

Part of unix history: ctrl-c in consoles is the default SIGINT (interrupt) signal, ctrl-v is used type literal escaped chars hence, copying is done with shift+insert/delete. As for the keybindings and your second problem, that's application specific and since I don't use krusader I can't help ya there. -- Mel People using reply to all on lists, must think I need 2 copies.

You just install VNC. Then type vncserver and you will guided to create password and given server extension. So for instance if your server name is oko.net and vnc client number 1 you will access it with vncviewer oko.net:1 To customize your vnc experience file .vnc/xstartup must be edited. You can specify Window Manager or Desktop. Your firewall must be adjusted as well. I am watching this thread and wondering why are we discussing Ubuntu and Linux on this forum. Don't you guys have your own forum to discuss. PC-BSD is far easier to configure than Ubuntu. It is much more solid.We have Ubuntu as a Desktop OS at Department of Mathematics at the University or Arizona. It is full of problems and we have six very good system administrators that also run our Debian servers flawlessly. By the way Ubuntu has a problem with keyboard mapping in VNC mode. So it is useless unless you run 6.04 version or older. This seems to me as feeding a troll.

First off all, for those that aren't aware: "The mission of this site is to compile semi-accurate numbers for advocacy and marketing of the *BSD operating systems." Through interaction with several system administrators out there, from a security / anonymity perspective, we have tried to design things such that we save nothing in the database that could be used to compromise your servers ... no hostname, no IP ... The stats have also been designed to allow for multiple reporting by the same host each month (ie. rebooting your desktop), so it doesn't have to be run just on the first of the month. The web site, although it looks good, is incomplete at this time ... Anthony, our 'webmaster' has been a wee bit pre-occupied the past little while, but hopes to be able to dive back in again by the end of the month, and clean up some of the reports. To date, we have the following *BSD "distributions" reporting in: DesktopBSD DragonFly FreeBSD GNU/kFreeBSD MidnightBSD MirBSD NetBSD OpenBSD PC-BSD PC-BSD, to the best of our knowledge, is the only one that defaults to enabled, while the rest have to be enabled manually. For FreeBSD users, you just need to install /usr/ports/sysutils/bsdstats to set things up. And that's the "sales pitch" ... over the past few months, we've broken the 11,000k host mark ... Since we don't have any 'trend reports' on the site yet, please feel free to visit to see changes from July -> August ... But, overall for August: DesktopBSD +152.7% DragonFly + 5.3% FreeBSD + 2.7% GNU/kFreeBSD +150.0% MidnightBSD +100.0% MirBSD +190.0% NetBSD - 5.5% OpenBSD + 13.5% PC-BSD + 0.2% ======= + 5.1% If you aren't participating, we very much encourage you to start ... the report script is a shell script, so you can scan it to figure out what, exactly, is being sent in .. and there is only one level of reporting that is required, and that is Operating System + Version ... Device and Ports reporting are 100% optional ... For those that are participating ... once more, thank you ... and spread the word, we need more reporters :) - ---- Marc G.

Swap backing with no swap configured sounded oxymoronic, and I was confused and left guessing by md(4) on 5.5-STABLE (March) till checking: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=md&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+7-current&format=html which explains swap backed operation in one short but crucial sentence. But is running out of memory with swap-backed md (with no swap) likely to be any prettier than the panics from (unreserved) malloc backing? > Ideally if no swap was configured, swap backing would also reserve the > space in memory, and then I am not aware of any other reasons to > continue using malloc backing. By 'ideally' I guess you mean that it doesn't, yet?

These questions always apply to the standard packages of FreeBSD. Any additional sources can't be used in the target environment, where the Os is planed to be used. Robustness: - Does FreeBSD offer Load-Balancinglike Piranha, with the standard packages? This can be supported be clustering software or by dispatching service requests to different instances of the same server. -=09 - Does it offer Failover with the standard packages? This can be supported be clustering software or by dispatching service requests to different instances of the same server. -=09 - Is it possible to make a persistent image of the status of the running OS? This is needed to freeze the system and late continue computation with the same internal state. -=09 - Is it possible to set the maximum allowed system resources for any process? To support real time system, some kind of partitioning or resource ensurance is needed. Security: - What security mechanisms does free BSD offer on the network and data link layer? In target solution the security of the other layers (transport and application) are handled by the running applications and the middleware. - Availability, Acess Control and Integrity are important. What does FreeBSD offer to support these kinds of security? - Is there a way to ensure Non-repudiation on a FreeBSD system? The system is security critical and might handle credit card information and other data to identify persons. Is it possible to link this data to user action on the OS level? Auditing: - Are tools provided for browsing audit trails? - Are security violations automatically logged? - Is it possible to add custom monitors to the standard auditing? - Are tools provided to create from auditing trails custom reports? - Is it possible to audit all transaction of the system or specify what transaction to audit? Support: - Is there commercial developer support for freeBSD available? -=09 - Do freeBSD drivers for ARINC 429 exist? -=09 - Do freeBSD drivers for the CAN bus exist? -=09 - Do freeBSD drivers for ADFX exist? I hope that you can help me to answer these questions. I have read about freeBSD and was not able to find the answers I was looking for. It might be that I read any paragraphs concerning these topics in the manuals, but if that is the case I can't remember them anymore and would be glad if you can point me to these paragraphs.

Don't want to do anything fancy. Just want a second interface to take over for one which has failed. Preferable would be a solution that doesn't require a specific configuration on our switches or routers. I have perused the www and have found multiple articles describing the procedure in HP-UX, Solaris, Linux, etc., but nothing for FreeBSD. Thanks in advance for your responses. Cheers, -Joe P.S.

If your running -STABLE or can wait for 6.3/7 then there is if_lagg which can run int failover mode as well as aggregation mode. I've never actually tried either method though so YMMV.

I have three (Internet) servers running the same FreeBSD version. However, one of the servers has been giving me trouble and I can't decipher whether or not it's a FreeBSD related issue or something else altogether. On this one server, whenever I try to use "portaudit", "portsnap", "fetch", or whenever I try to upgrade ports and it needs to "fetch" the updates the connections ALMOST always "time out". But what's weird is that I don't have the issue on the other two FreeBSD servers when they need to use the same commands. I can SSH to this (problem) server, ping to-from it, and everything else. It's gotten to the point where I thought it was a FreeBSD problem so I completely reformatted and installed the O/S. However, it's STILL doing the same thing. Upon trying to install certain distribution sets through FTP media, I'd get an error about it (FreeBSD) not being able to get a connection with the remote FreeBSD server. After that, I even went as far as changing network cards and it's still doing it. Using "netstat" while trying to use the commands shows that it's sending a "SYN" flag to the remote server, but no connection is ever established. I have all three servers plugged into the same router/firewall and have done so for years with no problems. This is the first issue of its kind. I'd greatly appreciate any insight, help, explanation, or something. This is getting really aggrevating. THANK YOU in advance. -- Michael From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Sep 3 14:33:26 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3020716A419 for ; Mon, 3 Sep 2007 14:33:26 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from derrick@uniquestrength.net) Received: from rwcrmhc11.comcast.net (rwcrmhc11.comcast.net [204.127.192.81]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1488E13C465 for ; Mon, 3 Sep 2007 14:33:26 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from derrick@uniquestrength.net) Received: from mail.uniquestrength.net ([68.55.141.86]) by comcast.net (rwcrmhc11) with ESMTP id <20070903142300m11001206ae>; Mon, 3 Sep 2007 14:23:00 +0000 Received: from localhost (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by mail.uniquestrength.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id C2B2E5C34; Mon, 3 Sep 2007 10:21:01 -0400 (EDT) X-Virus-Scanned: amavisd-new at uniquestrength.net Received: from mail.uniquestrength.net ([127.0.0.1]) by localhost (mail.uniquestrength.net [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with ESMTP id MvJP57lddkEd; Mon, 3 Sep 2007 10:20:45 -0400 (EDT) Received: from [192.168.1.109] (unknown [10.10.1.1]) (using TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits)) (No client certificate requested) by mail.uniquestrength.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id C5BA65C28; Mon, 3 Sep 2007 10:20:45 -0400 (EDT) From: Dantavious To: pneumann@gmail.com Date: Mon, 3 Sep 2007 10:22:22 -0400 User-Agent: KMail/1.9.7 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Message-Id: <200709031022.24028.derrick@uniquestrength.net> Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: FreeBSD Port: net/asterisk-addons X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 03 Sep 2007 14:33:26 -0000 Hi, I am having problems compiling this port.

It does it's job very well that's not been my experience -- but, that's not the argument here. i think it's not unreasonable to expect that "a perl-module is a perl-module is a perl-module". if it's properly installed -- and, in this case, it is, just like ALL my other perl-modules, then a port should treate it consistently/correctly. just like all my other ports do -- just NOT help2man. as for working around the problem ... the SIMPLEST solution is not to bother with "ports" system in this case, and do a manual install of help2man. but my goal was to be helpful & report a problem. > and since you're familiar with cpan/cpanp I'm sure you'll have no problem > installing modules that might not exist in the freebsd ports into a directory > *outside* the ports hierarchy (/usr/local) and add this to the module search > path. when help2man is installed via ports it *USES* the cpan-installed perl-module. cpanp -u gettext Locale::gettext module_info Locale::gettext Can't create Module::Info object for module 'Locale::gettext' at /usr/local/bin/module_info line 96. cd /usr/local/ports rm -rf gettext-* wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/P/PV/PVANDRY/gettext-1.05.tar.gz tar zxvf gettext-1.05.tar.gz # "#21625: Compilation under freebsd" # http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=21625 http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Attachment/243467/103618/gettext-freebsd.patch http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Attachment/243467/103621/gettext-MANIFEST cd /usr/local/ports/gettext-1.05 patch -p0 < ../P_gettext-freebsd.patch cp ../P_gettext-MANIFEST MANIFEST perl Makefile.PL make install module_info Locale::gettext Name: Locale::gettext Version: 1.05 Directory: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/mach File: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/mach/Locale/gettext.pm Core module: no now, building help2man % portinstall help2man [Updating the pkgdb in /var/db/pkg ... - 176 packages found (-1 +0) (...) done] [Gathering depends for misc/help2man .......... done] ---> Installing 'help2man-1.36.4_1' from a port (misc/help2man) ---> Building '/usr/ports/misc/help2man' ... ===> help2man-1.36.4_1 depends on file: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/mach/Locale/gettext.pm - found See?

I'm running 6.2-RELEASE, and recently installed Xorg. I've been using Fluxbox as my window manager, and everything has been working fine until recently. I cannot think of any major changes I've made to create this problem. Here's what happens. Once in a while (I can't reproduce the problem by doing anything specific), I exit X, and my TTY does not come back. I've verified the system has not crashed by SSHing in to the system -- where I can `startx`, and the X session resumes. I've tried [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[Backspace], which does kill the X session, but TTY does not resume as expected. I am using an nVidia GeForce 5500MX with the x11/nvidia-drivers, x11/nvidia-settings, and x11/nvidia-xconfig ports. Fluxbox and all Xorg dependencies are also installed from ports. (Yes, I did update my ports tree before installing.) The only change I've made to my xorg.conf was: Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "Enable" EndSection and the default mode for resolution. I've also disabled the above section, thinking it was a compositing problem, but that did not resolve it. Any ideas, or pointers on where to look would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. -- Glen Barber From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Sep 3 16:45:19 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1431516A4CE for ; Mon, 3 Sep 2007 16:45:19 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from oceanare@pacific.net.sg) Received: from smtpgate1.pacific.net.sg (smtpgate1.pacific.net.sg [203.120.90.31]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 630C413C478 for ; Mon, 3 Sep 2007 16:45:17 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from oceanare@pacific.net.sg) Received: (qmail 15302 invoked from network); 3 Sep 2007 16:18:35 -0000 Received: from bb121-7-106-120.singnet.com.sg (HELO P2120.somewherefaraway.com) (oceanare@121.7.106.120) by smtpgate1.pacific.net.sg with ESMTPA; 3 Sep 2007 16:18:33 -0000 Message-ID: <46DC33D8.9010404@pacific.net.sg> Date: Tue, 04 Sep 2007 00:18:32 +0800 From: Erich Dollansky User-Agent: Thunderbird 2.0.0.6 (X11/20070826) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Michaela References: <46DC1434.3090801@maa-net.net> In-Reply-To: <46DC1434.3090801@maa-net.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Weird FTP issue???

You didn't say what players you tried, but there are really many cd-players; maybe some of them are "basic" but there are a lot "advanced" ones. XMMS could be a good advanced lightweight choice with a lot of plugins; if you want something glimmering and huge, try amaroK.

Yes, I have more than the required number of modems, and same with NIC's ;) Essentially, I want to swap out my Cisco 2651 with the FreeBSD box with the hardware configuration you just described. It's either put the BSD box in to the 100Mbps connection and leave the Cisco in place on the ADSL connections and route between them when necessary, or what I really want is to replace the Cisco entirely if I can multi-link with FreeBSD. > If you cover the requirements, I can send you a working configuration. > Not necessarily an exact replicate of what you send, but close enough.

I tried am-utils but I didn't lik that. Is I tried a lot of things and read a lot and everything almost works except for the usb-sticks.

Please, note that portsnap is not using FTP, but HTTP. The first thing to do, when a problem like this occurs, is to use tcpdump to capture a packet trace. Use tcpdump on the server and, if possible, on the router/firewall and show us the results, if you can't analyze them by yourself.

That's a very interesting article and explains why my unmounter is never called. And yes, it is the proper way. devd (and usbd specifically for usb devices) has been created to be able to propagate kernel hardware events to user land. It follows unix principles that root is owner of the machine and it's resources and decides what to do with it. Using these events one can call simple scripts or very complex programs. As for KDE, also look at dcop. For instance: dcop --all-users --all-sessions knotify default notify notify Me \ "I just sent you guys a notification.

Mostly within 6 hours. That seems to suggest that it isn't hardware, but doesn't completely eliminate the possibility. Often, vendors write drivers to work around known deficiencies in their hardware. Since FreeBSD's drivers are written to the specs, they may expose these deficiencies while the vendor's drivers intentionally avoid them. Additionally, FreeBSD seems to work hardware in different ways than Windows, thus tickling corner cases with hardware that's just barely failing. Run some hardware tests to be sure. Also, the driver issue that was raised is a good point. I've seen a number of buggy NICs where the vendor's driver worked around the bugginess so it _looked_ like FreeBSD was at fault.

Thereafter, I can do vnc via ssh to that vncserver from my kubuntu desktop with something like this (hostname is the only thing changed to protect the innocent): ssh -L 15901:localhost:5901 -N -f -l pollywog myhost.example.com However, when I attempt to connect to that vncserver from my laptop running FreeBSD 7 I always get this: bind: Can't assign requested address channel_setup_fwd_listener: cannot listen to port: 15901 Could not request local forwarding. Is the "bind" referring to the nameserver BIND? BTW I am able to connect to the vncserver from the laptop, just not via ssh.

The default "filesystem type" used by mount is "ufs", so you are trying to mount the DVD disk as a "UFS filesystem". It is certainly possible to create a DVD disk with a UFS filesystem, but the most common format for storing data in DVD disks is the filesystem known as "cd9660", so you may have to use: mount -t cd9660 /dev/acd0 /cdrom More details about creating and using CD-ROM disks, and DVD-ROM disks can be found in our Handbook. You can read the relevant sections at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/creating-cds.html http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/creating-dvds.html When you find the time, please feel free to skim through the rest of the Handbook too. It contains a huge wealth of information about using FreeBSD, and I'm sure you will find a lot of interestings bit there. - Giorgos From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Sep 4 00:21:39 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7663516A420 for ; Tue, 4 Sep 2007 00:21:39 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from lists-fbsd@shadypond.com) Received: from mx-outbound01.easydns.com (mailout.easydns.com [205.210.42.54]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5617113C45B for ; Tue, 4 Sep 2007 00:21:39 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from lists-fbsd@shadypond.com) Received: from lilypad.shadypond.com (69-12-173-117.static.humboldt1.com [69.12.173.117]) (using TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits)) (No client certificate requested) by mx-outbound01.easydns.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5AD138038 for ; Mon, 3 Sep 2007 20:21:37 -0400 (EDT) Received: from ripple.shadypond.com (ripple.shadypond.com [192.168.1.13]) by lilypad.shadypond.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id 71E42B83C for ; Tue, 4 Sep 2007 00:21:38 +0000 (UTC) From: Pollywog To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Tue, 4 Sep 2007 00:21:35 +0000 References: <200709032258.03656.lists-fbsd@shadypond.com> <46DC93FD.8020701@math.arizona.edu> <200709040013.14531.lists-fbsd@shadypond.com> In-Reply-To: <200709040013.14531.lists-fbsd@shadypond.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Message-Id: <200709040021.35918.lists-fbsd@shadypond.com> Subject: Re: ssh forwarding question X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 04 Sep 2007 00:21:39 -0000 On Tuesday 04 September 2007 00:13:13 Pollywog wrote: > On Monday 03 September 2007 23:08:45 Predrag Punosevac wrote: > > Pollywog wrote: > > > bind: Can't assign requested address > > > channel_setup_fwd_listener: cannot listen to port: 15901 > > > Could not request local forwarding. > > > > It seems to me that you have a problem with a firewall.

Yes that was the problem. I did this: ifconfig lo0 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 After that I could ping localhost and my VNC connection via SSH succeeded. Now how do I fix this problem permanently in FreeBSD, by running sysinstall again and setting the loopback address from there?

X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 04 Sep 2007 03:15:18 -0000 Here's one thing I've never quite understood about FreeBSD and I was hoping somebody could provide some enlightenment... I've got 6.2-release installed. By default (as you all probably know) "pkg_add -r" fetches packages from the "release" directory: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6.2-release Now here's where it gets weird for me. If I understand the FreeBSD release methodology , that "release" is a frozen-in-time snapshot of a particular release (6.2 in my case) that gets no future updates. As we move farther and farther beyond a particular releases debut-date, that snapshot (and the packages it contains) gets increasingly stale. Do I have that right? If I do, it seems to me that the absolute first thing I should do after installing a release version would be to change where "pkg_add -r" is sourcing packages from. Either to "current" if I like to live on the edge or "stable" if I want to be a more conservative. I'm curious, why does "pkg_add -r" point to the "release" snapshot of ports by default? Is the idea that a "release" is well-tested and that any deviation from that (even security or bug-fix changes) is an unknown that new users need to be shielded against when grabbing packages with "pkg_add -r"? Seems to me it would be better to have "pkg_add -r" point to stable (which, if I understand things correctly, does get updated packages). And how does one go about *permanently* changing the "pkg_add -r" target. You can set the PACKAGESITE variable in the shell which will work on a user-by-user basis but isn't there a way to centrally change PACKAGESITE without relying on each user to have properly config'd their individual shells? I know a lot of thought has gone into the current system so I'm thinking that these questions are due to the fact that I'm just not grok'ing something important about the philosophy behind all this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. - Gary From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Sep 4 03:30:48 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 36E6D16A41A for ; Tue, 4 Sep 2007 03:30:48 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from xrayv19@yahoo.com) Received: from web58102.mail.re3.yahoo.com (web58102.mail.re3.yahoo.com [68.142.236.125]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id CBEED13C469 for ; Tue, 4 Sep 2007 03:30:47 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from xrayv19@yahoo.com) Received: (qmail 92753 invoked by uid 60001); 4 Sep 2007 03:30:46 -0000 DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; q=dns; c=nofws; s=s1024; d=yahoo.com; h=X-YMail-OSG:Received:Date:From:Subject:To:MIME-Version:Content-Type:Content-Transfer-Encoding:Message-ID; b=U1/fFJFV1nPCXfHVCXTDMfM9bYOBItUbz7We0+1Wg0F42R4P6HA1MbHCpsYAmNTCx+9fiwvFG5uDjdFwFXusBKnokv9OR7rvG9ZtcqYez8LnosvRNLQ+aY4beR6EENI6wLoJawaxOTOvTx+p8j38G+z+6lGKxKl/8VphSMLuXgc=; X-YMail-OSG: 0I6roCQVM1kZEgLFjh_hKhpT8C.UYDqnnvnyLifOvKQGvIff1ILY4sX95feCpKgx7Q-- Received: from [131.191.82.223] by web58102.mail.re3.yahoo.com via HTTP; Mon, 03 Sep 2007 20:30:46 PDT Date: Mon, 3 Sep 2007 20:30:46 -0700 (PDT) From: L Goodwin To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Message-ID: <813384.83992.qm@web58102.mail.re3.yahoo.com> Subject: Handling failed mount (media not connected) X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 04 Sep 2007 03:30:48 -0000 My backup script (sh) works fine except when the backup drive (USB Flash drive) is not plugged in.

Might be worth a try. No luck. I've rescanned time after time, and get nothing. No sloppy devices show up in dmesg, cannot use mount_msdosfs to access the floppy, etc. This is truly, truly frustrating, as I am trying to follow THESE instructions: http://3ware.com/KB/article.aspx?id=14850 I've even tried installing to an external (non-raid) drive in an attempt to use that drive as a "really big floppy". The boot loader doesn't know how to see the BSD partition on it, and apparently can only see "raw" bios drives. Another possible approach was to try and boot from the single drive and then use sysinstall to install onto the RAID array, but I've had issues with that before. As an aside, the module HAS to be loaded before the boot process, so I can't use kldload to load the module from a fixit floppy or something like that. My workaround at the moment is that I am downloading a snapshot ISO of -STABLE It might be nice if the "loading modules from floppy" procedure (while rarely required) was better documented. -Dan -- "It's three o'clock in the morning.

Thank you very much :-) I known that. It is true for console but for GUI not always. For example in kate editor under KDE, Ctrl+D means insert comment, but on console means end of file. So it is different for different programs. Thank you again. Maybe some others people who use krusader have the same problem as I have or this is only specific for my installation of krusader?

The up-to-date packages may not work, may not even be present on the FTP site, and in general are not suitable for users who just want a working system without having to fiddle with it. i.e. defaulting to the packages that came with the release is a conservative step that is appropriate for users who just want packages that work, and don't care about always having the latest versions. For the rest of you, you're going to be doing a lot more hands on admin anyway, so setting one env variable is not a heavy burden. > And how does one go about *permanently* changing the "pkg_add -r" > target.

In the typical configuration only root can add packages, so just add it there.

Use "sh -x" to run the script to see what it is doing wrong. One problem is that you are missing lots of error handling. If any of those commands fails then subsequent commands may misbehave.

Also, packages from the -stable directory may have different/conflicting dependencies compared to existing packages on your system. Imagine installing 6.2 before the x.org-7 update, then trying to "pkg_add -r" a package from the -stable directory that depends on an xorg-7 feature. pkg_add just isn't smart enough to realize that you really need to upgrade all of X, and will probably fail the install at some point. Ideally one would install 6.2 from a CD, select the packages they initially want, then pull an updated /usr/ports tree and update their system from that using their favorite tools from the ports/port-mgmt directory. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Sep 4 14:41:22 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 34E3C16A41A for ; Tue, 4 Sep 2007 14:41:22 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from jonathan+freebsd-questions@hst.org.za) Received: from hermes.hst.org.za (onix.hst.org.za [209.203.2.133]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 656FB13C4CE for ; Tue, 4 Sep 2007 14:41:20 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from jonathan+freebsd-questions@hst.org.za) Received: from sysadmin.hst.org.za (sysadmin.int.dbn.hst.org.za [10.1.1.20]) (authenticated bits=0) by hermes.hst.org.za (8.13.8/8.13.8) with ESMTP id l84EbVc3030122 (version=TLSv1/SSLv3 cipher=RC4-MD5 bits=128 verify=NO) for ; Tue, 4 Sep 2007 16:37:31 +0200 (SAST) (envelope-from jonathan+freebsd-questions@hst.org.za) From: Jonathan McKeown Organization: Health Systems Trust To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Tue, 4 Sep 2007 16:43:51 +0200 User-Agent: KMail/1.7.2 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Message-Id: <200709041643.51691.jonathan+freebsd-questions@hst.org.za> X-Spam-Score: -3.977 () ALL_TRUSTED,BAYES_00 X-Scanned-By: MIMEDefang 2.61 on 209.203.2.133 Subject: passwd(1), pam_ldap and old PRs X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 04 Sep 2007 14:41:22 -0000 I asked this on -hackers@ several weeks ago and the silence was deafening - what I have heard referred to as Warnock's Dilemma. I'm experimenting with OpenLDAP, pam_ldap, and pgina with the PAM plugin on Windows clients, for central authentication in a mixed network. passwd(1) won't allow me to change a password other than local or NIS. There are two relevant PRs, one open (bin/71290)and one suspended (bin/59638). Looking at the source, it appears passwd.c has been rewritten (some years since) to use the PAM infrastructure for password changes. This goes most of the way to addressing bin/59638. However, there is a switch statement at lines 112-126 of /usr/src/usr.bin/passwd/passwd.c (on 6.2-RELEASE) which prevents it from working except for files and nis, using constants defined in and commented there as being ``bogus''. bin/71290 includes a patch which would fix this (although I do think it would be a shame to lose the comment about green men). Is there any reason other than historical that this PR and patch is being ignored and the old behaviour is being preserved? What would be the drawback to removing the switch statement as proposed, and allowing passwd(1) to change the user's password using PAM, wherever it might be stored?

The same applies to a 6.2-STABLE before x.org-7 update, no difference there. It's not about port dependencies, it's about base-system dependencies. It doesn't happen often that within a minor release update a library gets a version bump, but binary incompatibilities may still occur. For -RELEASE you are expected to upgrade from source. Typical behavior being that ports only get upgraded when portaudit reports them unsafe. -- Mel People using reply to all on lists, must think I need 2 copies.

It's in ports. To expand on that, a couple lines similar to the following should work for you: User_Alias IPFWSHOW = user1, user2, user3 IPFWSHOW ALL = NOPASSWD: /sbin/ipfw show The command they would need to use would be: $ sudo ipfw show The entry dictates that there would be no additional password required. It also limits them to ipfw show, and they're not able to use ipfw add, delete, etc. HTH ----- Eric F Crist Secure Computing Networks From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Sep 4 15:20:50 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D1D0216A421 for ; Tue, 4 Sep 2007 15:20:50 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from darryl@osborne-ind.com) Received: from ws2.cnweb.com (ws2.cnweb.com [69.50.194.62]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 94DDE13C480 for ; Tue, 4 Sep 2007 15:20:50 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from darryl@osborne-ind.com) Received: (qmail 18266 invoked from network); 4 Sep 2007 09:52:32 -0500 Received: from p245n23.ruraltel.net (HELO Europa) (24.225.23.245) by ws2.cnweb.com with SMTP; 4 Sep 2007 09:52:32 -0500 From: "Darryl Hoar" To: Date: Tue, 4 Sep 2007 09:53:01 -0500 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook CWS, Build 9.0.2416 (9.0.2911.0) X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.0.6000.16480 Importance: Normal Subject: Samba type question X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list Reply-To: darryl@osborne-ind.com List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 04 Sep 2007 15:20:50 -0000 Greetings, I have an ageing NT4 file server that is the PDC (windows speak for primary domain controller) for my windows network. I have roughly 40 networked pc's connected to this network and most of the clients are running XP Pro. I have one client running windows 2000 pro, and one client running Vista Ultimate (gag, puke). I would like to know if I can replace that NT4 PDC with Freebsd and Samba.

It takes a bit more work though when you have to deal with domain accounts and access though [I stuck with flat /etc/passwd and smbpasswd files instead of using a (Kerberized) domain login since I only have 4 boxes]. -Garrett From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Sep 4 16:08:11 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id F2E3816A468 for ; Tue, 4 Sep 2007 16:08:10 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from iaccounts@ibctech.ca) Received: from pearl.ibctech.ca (pearl.ibctech.ca [208.70.104.210]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 829C113C54F for ; Tue, 4 Sep 2007 16:08:10 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from iaccounts@ibctech.ca) Received: (qmail 70952 invoked by uid 1002); 4 Sep 2007 16:08:08 -0000 Received: from iaccounts@ibctech.ca by pearl.ibctech.ca by uid 89 with qmail-scanner-1.22 (spamassassin: 2.64.

I am trying to configure a wireless nic on my laptop, which is a windows-free bsd dual boot system. At home, I can access the internet in Windows through a router which also connects my destop (a windows xp machine) to my internet cable connection. When in FreeBSD, I run ifconfig and it indicates that the nic is running and gives its inet address, one which is different from the ip address given in windows. When I ping the address given by ifconfig, it shows a connection. When I ping the the gateway given for the windows machines (the ip address of the router) I get nothing in FreedBSD. So, I edited the /etc/hosts file. I entered the windows ip address for the router into the /etc/hosts file as the local host. Then I edited /etc/rc.config file to assign the ip address given in windows to the inet address of the nic. When I save the files and reboot, I get this message which repeats itself several times: "login : Sep 4 11:24:49 sm--mta[561]: NOQUEUE : SYSERR(root): opendaemonsocket: daemon0: cannot bind: can't assign requested address Sep 4 11:29:37 sm-mta[561]: daemon Daemon0: problem creating SMTP socket" After this message flashes at boot up, I login as root and try to check the etc/rc.config file but the system responds: "Permission denied". when I run vi on /etc/config, it opens as a blank file. What do I need to do different?

If one goes to /pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6-stable/kde (1) /pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6.2-release/kde (2) there does not seems to be a kde meta port in (1). In (2) there is: kde-3.5.4.tbz -> ../All/kde-3.5.4.tbz In general all packages seem to be a symlink to ../All/.. I had assumed this was the same directory and there was really one instance of the ports tree per major release of FreeBSD. so I never (knowingly) distinguished between --stable and --release. Is there a difference. Is there a working kde package in -6-stable?

Without providing some technical aspects of your server and squid configurations, it's difficult for us to help you resolve your problems. Are you running squid transparently? Please post your squid.conf and the output of "sysctl -A". Also describe your network topology. Are you running some kind of firewall in your Squid box? What's the output from the command: netstat -m What does your cache.log and access.log say?

Oh, yeah. Thanks, Robert! Now, sendmail has stopped working again (was working last night). Now, sendmail thinks on it for awhile, then returns 0, but mailq returns "/var/spool/mqueue is empty Total requests: 0" I was testing outgoing email by disconnecting the network cable.

When read errors occur, sysinstal behaves erratically. You never know what will be displayed or how it will handle the situation (sometimes it looks like it aborted, but when you press Enter, it goes ahead with the install).

I had to have a person at the colo facility read off the message that was on the screen. I hope it is exact (or at least close). This server is one of our main spam filter servers.

Thanks, Garrett. I was wondering about the "[]" vs. "{}" (every code example I've seen uses the square brackets). It's been 10 years since I did any serious shell scripting. I finally installed the MAN and INFO pages on the server I'm working on yesterday -- much faster than accessing them online! I'd like to see all MAN pages show return values and where any output goes, and more examples that cover each combination of the former in a real-world scenario.

Once I'm done with this split personality development and testing, I choose which of the two to keep, and then rebuild my raid 1 using that "kept" disk as the master. I can do this with bios controlled raid controllers easy enough. I'd like to do it with a gmirror'ed system. I'm using a procedure much like that described here to build my gmirror raid on freebsd 6.2. http://dannyman.toldme.com/2005/01/24/freebsd-howto-gmirror-system/ How could I play boot swap-a-roo on these twin disks? That is without pulling drive cables for data or power? I'd like to be able to boot either of the two drives. FreeBSD see's my devices even if I disable the drive "OFF" in bios, so that alone doesn't work. I suppose I could use kernel.conf and "di ad0" or "di ad2" to suppress drive hardware detection, but I'm hoping to do something simple (with a few keystrokes) during one of the boot stages to suppress one or another of the drive detections. I don't recall how to disable a given device during the an interactive boot procedure. And then of course, I'd like to be able to re-raid based on my preferred drive, repopulating the other. I'm not certain how best to manage this. Thanks for some ideas.

Does TLS/SSL make this a non-issue? What about the other > methdods? Much of this depends on the mail clients that your going to be hitting the server with. The first group does encryption of the password only. The TLS/SSL stuff does encryption of everything - password, mail contents, etc. The TLS stuff requires you put a SSL cert into the client. Most people, not wanting to pay Verisign for this, make their own self-signed certs. There is a large amount of arcane magic to do this, and to get it accepted into Windows, so that an Outlook client will do SSL. You cannot really find recipies out there to do it - but you can pick up bits and pieces here and there and learn a lot about SSL and assemble a recipie. Basically, you want to create a self-signed root certificate, then sign your POP3 mailserver certificate with that, and put the self-signed cert into the root store in Windows. Not only can you sign your pop3 certs with this, you can sign your www, imap, pop3, smtp, etc. etc. etc. certificates with your root CA and then you won't get bitching from your windows clients. The first group is a different story. If you want to get Outlook to work with that, you can only use NTLM. The developers of all of the various packages dislike NTLM so they force you to use arcane makefile options and such to build your system so that it will support NTLM. Eudora, by contrast, supports only APOP and Netscape mail only supports CRAM-MD5 and as I recall bugs in the clients basically make it impossible for a server that supports all these encryption types to work with all clients. The honest to god truth of the matter is that encrypting your POP3 and SMTP auth passwords is difficult to do on a large scale no matter what road you pick to do it, so there is really not a lot of point to doing it unless your in a rather limited environment. I would definitely not bother in a corporate environment where you have maybe a handful of road warriors that would be on sniffable networks - just make sure their pop3 login and password isn't the same as their network login ID and password and the worst a cracker can do is steal their mail. whop de do. Chances are far more likely their laptops will be busted into by a robot loaded on the laptop that sniffs keystrokes. By contrast in a creaky old college network with a bunch of dumb network hubs and a couple dormotories full of jerkoffs looking to prove they are hackers, you probably would want to encrypt it via SSL.

Negatives/positives? Different strokes for different folks. There's nothing to be ashamed of for choosing a different OS because it fits your needs better than FreeBSD. However there is a lot to be ashamed of if your announcing this to the FreeBSD mailing list as a veiled attempt to "spur" the FreeBSD developers to make FreeBSD more ubuntu-like, or to trigger a flame war between ubuntu and FreeBSD supporters. Your post to me kind of seems rather passive-agressive, your praising and condemming FreeBSD at the same time, in the same sentences. I can't figure out if your trying to flame-bait or not, so I'll assume the best, that your not. Basically, dude, what you need to do is shit and get off the pot. Every OS under the sun including Winblows is going to suck up tinker-time. If you want a computer (or a happy wife I guess) then you need to accept that and quit whining that you don't have enough time. Here's a thought - unplug your TV set for a month and I'll bet you get a lot more tinker time. Anyway, you need to load ubuntu and load windows and load debian, and load red hat and so on and so on and make your own decision as to which meets your needs. None of us here can read minds and you haven't stated what your needs are - other than you want more time, which as I explained is a mirage - there isn't going to be more time freed up by replacing FreeBSD with something else, your just going to spend the same time with a different set of problems - so if you honest-to-god need more time, then give up something in your life that is consuming time that you gain less from than your computer. It could be anything from TV to your daily commute, to smoking, to drinking beer, you name it, whatever.

I am running FreeBSD 7 I noticed before when you posted your ifconfig with missing localhost IPv4 address. You shouldn't have had to add it to rc.conf in the first place, as you should find this line existing in /etc/defaults/rc.conf: ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1" # default loopback device configuration. Check that nothing has messed with /etc/defaults/rc.conf, and also that you have no later ifconfig_lo0 entry in rc.conf. The last one found there is the one that applies, later entries overriding earlier ones. Apart from that, I can't imagine what might be deleting your default localhost configuration, unless you're using rc.local? Otherwise I'd be searching any active scripts in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ for any oddnesses that may hae been installed by some port or other?

The motherboard is a Tyan S5197 i3110 based board with a Core 2 Quad 2.4 ghz processor. There is 4GB of memory and an Areca ARC-1231ML raid card. The problem is that I have to boot without ACPI or the system will randomly reboot itself when doing something. It will sit idle for ages but if I do a system build (make buildworld for example), it usually will not make it through without rebooting. If I boot without ACPI support (#2 in the boot loader), then the system is fine, I can do a billion builds without incident, except that I only get 1 CPU. (Yes, the kernel has SMP option built in). I would really like to run with all 4 cores but cannot run with ACPI at the moment due to instability. Any suggestions? Any way to get "old-style" SMP detection working (ie, without ACPI)?

All I can say is fill out as detailed a PR as you possibly can and hope for the best. And don't forget to add screaming at Tyan to the list - if these stupid motherboard manufacturers never hear from us they don't pay attention to us. You can also try changing BIOS versions, and dicking around with BIOS settings, sometimes that helps.

Read the license and make sure some bozo hasn't GNUified it. Compile it on FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE. Test it out to see if everything works fine. Compare it's output to that of the existing top to make sure it matches. If it does, then send in a PR that states you have tested it out, where to get it, that it's still under a BSD license, and what if anything you did to get it to compile. You see, even if you cannot do anything fancy like port the changes from the old version of top into the 3.6 version, the fact that the new version of top hasn't introduced some bogosity that makes it a pain in the arse to deal with under FreeBSD is of immense value. After all your talking about an hour of developer time just to see if the new version works at all, and produces output that isn't far out in left field. If a core developer knows the new top version works and is license-compatible they are going to be much more willing to spend the time porting the FreeBSD-specific changes over to it than if it is a big unknown. And if your more advanced, you can compare the original beta version of top that was used against the BSD system one, see what changes were made, check to see if they were fed back to the top maintainers and if they were implemented in the top code, and if not, submit them to the top maintainers so the source gets updated.

Jim (and Russell) let me point out one thing about solutions like this. Something like this is designed for people who don't know how to build a mailserver, to download some files, pull the trigger, and Blammo - instant mailserver. In short, a big black box that works as a mailserver. The problem is, however, that the only guy that really and truly knows how everthing works in that black box is the guy that wrote the black box - the author of toaster, himself. You, being the clueless admin who pulled the trigger, are not going to be instantly converted into a knowledgeable mail server admin by pulling the trigger. You are just going to be a clueless admin who now has a big powerful black box that can go kill people, just as easily as explode in his face. Kind of like the country of Iraq buying a nuclear device - they don't know what they have, don't know how to build it, and are not qualified at all to use it. If something in that black box goes kablooie - which sooner or later it will, since all mail systems have problems - you are going to be screwed over. If you have a small home mailserver with a couple of friends on it, a system like Toaster can be a real help - IF you install it, then spend months picking it apart, to learn how to not be a clueless admin. However if you install it then spend the next 3 months watching reruns of Lost, then assume you now know all there is to know about a mailserver, you are then a stupid fool. Or, if your an admin with a big string of mailservers already under your belt who is looking for interesting code bits he can steal to incorporate into his own mailservers, then Toaster is also of value. But if your just a guy looking for a quick gun to shoot a problem so he can go on to the next thing, then your just going to screw yourself with something like Toaster. You would be much better advised to build the mailserver from scratch. Sure, your mailserver won't have all the pretty graphs and admin interfaces that something like Toaster has. But, you will know how it works and the day you get a phone call and 400 users now can't get mail, you will know how to fix it.

Jim, - incoming email + delivery : postfix . Really well documented. Haven't found a feature not implemented. As secure as you configure it (unlike qmail which implements a lot of security by axing features, so u need to add dubious hacks...) - dovecot : POP + IMAP, works quite well with ssl too - webmail : i use roundcube, but there are plenty of options. All u need is something that talks IMAP to your imap server - amavis-new as glue for Spam assassin / other spam tagging system + clamav.

Sorry if you get this twice. } Hi, I'm a bit new to FreeBSD, and have few questions challenging my Gentoo Linux mindset: 1. I performed a Minimal 6.2 installation (it boots OK). Then I selected Post installation tasks -> Distributions. There I see "base (required)", it appears unselected. Does this install anything more than what Minimal install did at the first place? 2. I see pkg_add, pkg_delete, pkg_info but no pkg_update. How am I supposed to keep my system up to date, unless I revert to ports? 3. Minimal install provides a number of commands by default like pkg_*, portsnap, gcc, ls, vi, etc but pkg_info does not list any of their packages, which means they're not managed under /var/db/pkg. Then, how am I supposed to upgrade them without ending up with multiple versions? 4. I want to avoid the -CURRENT branch and want to stay with -STABLE branch for now. The page http://www.freebsd.org/ports/index.html says: "The Ports Collection supports the latest release on the FreeBSD-CURRENT and FreeBSD-STABLE branches." This not clear to me: If I start using ports, am I on -STABLE or not? 5. make.conf is blank by default. Does CPU_TYPE default to i386 in this case? I hope I'm not too confused and sound silly.

I'm not sure I would agree with this statement either. I've just recently moved a network of 100 users scattered all over South Africa, about half of whom are highly mobile and using multiple forms of connectivity (6 office LANS, an OpenVPN, ADSL and cellular datacards), to an encrypted/authenticated email system. I'm using sendmail and cyrus. I set up a certificate authority (not hard - there are plenty of howtos all over the 'web) and gave the SMTP and IMAP/POP servers their own certificates. All the authentication options you mention after plain text (which is the standard method built in to the protocol) require Cyrus SASL. This isn't as scary to set up as the docs make it sound. PLAIN and LOGIN can both use your existing user passwords (which is what I do). GSSAPI requires Kerberos, and the digest methods (the -MD5 ones) need a separate file of passwords held in plain text - the sasldb. Of the passwd-based methods, PLAIN is the preferred protocol according to the docs and RFCs - LOGIN is the one Microsoft uses (go figure). I've configured sendmail and cyrus to use SASL, offering LOGIN and PLAIN, and to use TLS. sendmail uses STARTTLS on the submission port (587), and cyrus imapd/popd uses STARTTLS on imap and pop3 (143 and 110), plus SSL/TLS on pop3s (995). They are both configured not to offer LOGIN or PLAIN (or plain text login) without a TLS layer in place. Clients are kmail (me), Outlook 2003 (everyone else), and a webmail system using Squirrelmail with up-imapproxy (which is a caching proxy, and also does the STARTTLS stuff for Squirrelmail because Squirrelmail can't). Outlook 2003 uses LOGIN for authentication, and won't do STARTTLS on a pop3 connection (which is where you connect in clear and negotiate encryption, as opposed to connecting to pop3s which is encrypted from the start). The Outlook clients are configured to require authentication for SMTP using the same settings as POP, and to require encryption on both POP and SMTP, with ports 587 for SMTP and 995 for POP. The first time someone collects email with Outlook, they get a warning that the certificate isn't trusted, but also the option to install it. Half a dozen clicks later the certificate is in place. Granted, if you have clients using older versions of Outlook or dozens of different email clients, you may have issues finding working combinations of TLS/STARTTLS/port numbers and authentication methods, but by and large it's just putting a few slightly scary-sounding pieces together on the server - all of which are either in the base system (sendmail: most of the objections to sendmail haven't had any basis in reality for several years. It's now as easy to configure as Postfix, IMHO, and hooking Mimedefang in as a milter gives you the ability to reject a lot of junk during the connection rather than after the fact) or easily added from ports.

Such arrogancy and ignorance are very miserable. >=20 Your reaction is facinating considering the location implied by your e-mail reply address. I can perhaps understand your adversion to the use of metaphors in language - God know the Serbian propagandists warped the metaphor beyond the breaking point in your history and perhaps now, there is a horror of them there that will take generations = to dissipate. In any case, please rest assured I was not talking about nuclear weapons or Iraq, merely incompetent admins running mailservers that were beyond their capabilities. It was merely a metaphor. I would encourage you to get beyond your instinctual knee-jerk reaction against the metaphor, as it is widely used language device in virtually all languages and cultures in use by mankind today. No serious person would ever argue for the proposition that a non-nuclear country be allowed to purchase nuclear weapons, much less use them. As, no serious person should ever argue for "clueless admins" to run mailservers that they know nothing about. Never forget when you or anyone sets up a mailserver on the Internet you are putting a server online that can be used to cause a tremendous amount of damage to other mailservers on the Internet. It is a responsibility that should never be taken lightly. Far too many "Windoze admins" do this already. We as FreeBSD users do not need to emulate such disgusting behavior. Jim posted here asking for help, using words and language that gives serious doubt that he is competent to run a mailserver of any kind. It would be irresponsible in the extreme to tell him to run pell-mell into fielding a system that is way beyond his capabilities. His goal should be to gain competence as well as a mailserver, lest he cause serious problems on the Internet. We do NOT need one more misconfigured server on the Internet that is a spam or virus source. The best way for him to do this - and be a responsible network admin - is to start small, with individual pieces, and learn each subsystem. The worst way would be to drop a canned package in that he doesen't understand. It is to the list's credit that the vast majority of responses to Jim were to direct him to the individual packages - NOT to a "toaster" approach that would likely teach him nothing. Hopefully next time you will stick to addressing the topic of the responses and not get hung up on attacking an alliteration or some other language device that someone might use.

Note that this may well be hardware related: without acpi you are only using one CPU, etc, so if one of the others is bad it will only fail when you have ACPI enabled -- even if ACPI itself is not to blame.

CRAM-MD5, Digest-MD5, NTLM, GSSAPI, and APOP are associated with password encryption on SMTP auth and POP3 as you well know, so please do not try to be deliberately stupid to make a point. Just make your point and get on with it.

Sorry, but if you think it is simple, please post a couple pointers. Don't forget to include all versions of Windows and Outlook in current use - that includes Outlook Express 6, and regular Outlook 98, 2000, 2003 that are part of Office, as well as Internet Explorer 5 and 6 and 7. Don't forget to include the scripts needed to generate the keys too. Sure it is simple - when ALL clients are running the same version of Windows, IE, and Outlook. Perhaps true in a small network. Very not true in a large network. > > The first group is a different story.

Caught you there. Everyone supports LOGIN and PLAIN. (at least I never met a mail program that didn't - perhaps there is one) But, you cannot get password encryption with Outlook Express unless you do NTLM. It supports nothing else, except for SSL which is encryption of the entire channel. If you know of a way to get OE to support CRAM-MD5 then do tell. > > The honest to god truth of the matter is that encrypting your POP3 > > and SMTP auth passwords is difficult to do on a large scale no matter > > what road you pick to do it, so there is really not a lot of point to > > doing it unless your in a rather limited environment. > > I'm not sure I would agree with this statement either. > I perhaps should have explained this more. Encryption of e-mail is absolutely pointless unless done from mail client to mail client a-la PGP or some such. If the cracker can't get the mail sniffed from client to server he can simply go to the server and get it when it's transmitted to the other mailserver via SMTP which is not encrypted. It is only useful for protecting passwords from wire sniffing. But in most cases, the wire isn't sniffable. Your certainly not going to be able to do it in most corporate networks as ethernet switching has been in use for a long time now. Your grandpa's 10baseT ethernet switches would protect as well from casual sniffing as your modern gigabit ones do today. And if your in a corporate environment that still uses hubs you might as well go home since your in an environment that is such an antique that it's going to have a hundred holes even easier to go through than that. Ditto for unencrypted wi-fi, it does not belong in a corporate network. password sniffing only becomes a concern when you have road warriors who are NOT connecting into the mailserver via a VPN (many companies do not allow outside connections that aren't inside a VPN even for popping e-mail) and are NOT using a HTTPS webmail interface - which is going to be the norm if the road warriors are using kiosks. And if the road warriors are using Blackberries or other PDAs as is becoming popular - good effing luck, if they aren't breaking your security running the blackberry client on their PC who knows what they are doing behind your back. And even if you have valid concerns on password sniffing well that's simple enough to address - don't be an idiot and use the same user name and password for your e-mail clients as you use for your network and windows logins. > I've just recently moved a network of 100 users scattered all over South > Africa, about half of whom are highly mobile and using multiple forms of > connectivity (6 office LANS, an OpenVPN, ADSL and cellular > datacards), to an > encrypted/authenticated email system.

The problem is that the entire SSL picture is hard for a newbie. Most newbies to this aren't going to be told to set up a CA and generate certs from it. They will be handed instructions to tell them to setup host self-signed certs then be frustrated when their Outlook 98 and 2K clients reject them. It's only after digging for a long while will they come across some pointers that will shed the light. Of course it's gotten better recently but I still see a lot of people blithly unaware that Outlook 98 and Outlook 2000 will not accept self-signed certs unless the cert was signed by a CA that is inserted in the OS, and posting all manner of misleading instructions telling people this will work. Sorry folks, not everyone has the $$ to upgrade to the latest versions of MS Orafice and get the latest Outlook. > All the authentication options you mention after plain text (which is the > standard method built in to the protocol) require Cyrus SASL. > This isn't as > scary to set up as the docs make it sound.

Yes, that is the way that most people nowadays do it, as a result of the bugs I referred to with different mail clients. Unfortunately unlike NTLM this does require the client to accept a certificate which means the user has to do something. sendmail uses STARTTLS on the submission port (587), > and cyrus > imapd/popd uses STARTTLS on imap and pop3 (143 and 110), plus SSL/TLS on > pop3s (995).

Your making several assumptions here - first that it's an environment with all Outlook (not Outlook Express) and second it's all current Outlook. With Windows Product Activation the bad old days of a corporation buying a single copy of Microsoft Office and loading it on 50 or so machines are long gone. Why do you think that there's a giant fight now over the OpenXML standard? Corporations are done with standardizing on a -version- of MS Office, as they now know that they are going to have mixed networks with different versions of MS Office on them since they cannot pirate software anymore. They now want to standardize on a document format, so they don't get pushed into updating -everyone- on the network when a new verison of Office comes out. For older Outlook versions, you can't just do 6 clicks and install it. And, are you aware that MS has dumped Outlook Express entirely with Windows Vista and IE 7? One more wrinkle for the sites that are not all MS Office on every desktop. And to top all of this off, just wait till you run Vista. IE 7 and Vista give the user almost a dozen Dire Warning Signs This Computer Will Be Cracked when attempting to install a self-signed cert and the final ignomity is the stupid wizard defaults to the personal store not the root store so the CA is not usable by Outlook if they use the default. Just get on the MS-specific board and read all the screaming and bitching among Windows admins about Vista and self-signed certs. > Granted, if you have clients using older versions of Outlook or dozens of > different email clients, you may have issues finding working > combinations of > TLS/STARTTLS/port numbers and authentication methods, Bingo! > but by and > large it's > just putting a few slightly scary-sounding pieces together on the > server - > all of which are either in the base system (sendmail: most of the > objections > to sendmail haven't had any basis in reality for several years.

Seriously, it is just a bit more complicated that your making it seem. And, when the OP gets around to asking SPECIFIC questions about these packages then I'll be quite ready to post the options I use to turn them on and so on, as I'm sure you will. But I'm not going to post a recipie when the OP is not willing to interact on the list and is just reading via digest. Screw that. He's (hopefully) read all of this, once I see him making some effort on his part, great! So far though I haven't seen that.

Ya know, all of this has been real interesting to read - but since none of it (that I could see) was CCed to the gnats PR submitter e-mail address, none of it will be considered by anyone who might have this future problem and be searching the PR database for a fix, much less anyone who might be looking through the PR database history for preparing their own PR on a similar issue. Not to mention anyone on the actual bugs team. (even if a PR is closed you can still add comments to it, ding dong) You might say it was a big exercise in linguistic and technical masterbation. I hope it was as good for you as it was for us!

Since your disks are on different channels, that's probably what you asked for. Not all controllers/controller drivers support this.

This is not the place for such agressiveness. The rest of this is for everyone Thank all of you for your suggestions, I'll look at them. This is a mail server for me and maybe a few friends. I plan on running incoming SMTP, maybe at some point outgoing (requiring authentication/SSL, definetly no relay), no relay, no webmail, POP, if possible only under SSL. I think there's enough here for me to do my research and get what I need.

Knowledgeable and competant are two different things. If I were not competant, I would not bother attempting to get that knowledge that I lack. I don't know the nitty gritty details about exactly what and how mail servers are encrypted. I don't know all the nitty gritty details about how everything talks and intercommunicates. I do know that that any time a password goes over the internet (not just LAN) it needs to be encrypted as securly as possible. I do know that mail (and other) servers should live in jails. I do know not to run an open relay (take email from any server to deliver to any server, without authentication, and plan to achieve this by only allowing incoming mail). I do know that there is no such thing as too much paranoia when setting up a server. I know to find out and learn what I don't know, rather than to just stumble along blindly. There, that about covers everything that I do/don't know. -Jim Stapleton From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Wed Sep 5 11:02:19 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D668616A420 for ; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 11:02:19 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from punosevac@math.arizona.edu) Received: from smtp224.math.arizona.edu (smtp224.math.arizona.edu [128.196.224.202]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B9ADD13C442 for ; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 11:02:19 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from punosevac@math.arizona.edu) Received: from Debian-exim by smtp224.math.arizona.edu with local-bsmtp (Exim 4.50) id 1ISrxy-00084z-Ss for questions@freebsd.org; Wed, 05 Sep 2007 03:18:35 -0700 Received: from 71-220-146-155.tcsn.qwest.net ([71.220.146.155] helo=[192.168.0.3]) by smtp224.math.arizona.edu with esmtpsa (TLS-1.0:DHE_RSA_AES_256_CBC_SHA:32) (Exim 4.50) id 1ISrxy-00084r-Kd for questions@freebsd.org; Wed, 05 Sep 2007 03:18:34 -0700 Message-ID: <46DE818D.6080407@math.arizona.edu> Date: Wed, 05 Sep 2007 03:14:37 -0700 From: Predrag Punosevac User-Agent: Thunderbird 2.0.0.6 (Windows/20070728) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@freebsd.org References: <46DE7148.7090602@caf.com.tr> <46DE814C.1060504@math.arizona.edu> In-Reply-To: <46DE814C.1060504@math.arizona.edu> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Outgoing-Spam-Score: -5.9 (-----) Cc: Subject: Re: mail server setup questions X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 05 Sep 2007 11:02:19 -0000 Predrag Punosevac wrote: > >> On 05.09.2007 11:22, Ted Mittelstaedt wrote: >> [...] >> >>> Your reaction is facinating considering the location implied by >>> your e-mail reply address.

Also, be aware that whichever solution you choose, there are scanners out there that won't hesitate to query port 110 with an account guesser, which can spawn many daemons depending on how fast your pop server handles it.

It's probably too late to 'merge' the top-3.6 updates for RELENG_7 now, but I'm in the process of doing that.

Unmounts don't work when device is busy, ie: someone using a file or with cwd within the filesystem. umount -f will take care of it, or use fstat -f /usr/tmp_mnt to check before unmounting. -- Mel People using reply to all on lists, must think I need 2 copies.

You insinuated (but > I don't think explicitly stated) that LOGIN is in fact encrypted in > some form? No, it's just obfuscated. Both PLAIN and LOGIN send the username and password base64-encoded, which doesn't provide any security - it just protects the mailserver from funny characters in passwords. The only difference between PLAIN and LOGIN is that PLAIN combines the username and password into a single string and sends that, whereas LOGIN waits for a prompt, sends the username, waits for another prompt and sends the password. If you enable the option to prevent plaintext methods except under a security layer, both methods will be disabled. If you do decide to use cyrus, there's a useful tool called imtest which connects to the server, negotiates a TLS connection and lets you type IMAP commands at it. You can see the actual exchange of authentication details, and you can use openssl base64 -d to decode the base64 string to see what's sent (man enc for details). You can also test a secured connection using openssl s_client, which has an option for doing STARTTLS against smtp and pop3 servers (man s_client for details).

I'm just > looking for a confirmed "it's possible". Yes, it is possible. IBM xSeries 346, FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE, amd64. U360 hard drives. More specs are available from IBM. Using gmirror because we only have an Adaptec "HostRAID" (aka "FakeRAID") controller and not a real "ServerRaid", i.e. our SCSI controller basically has no useful RAID capabilities built in. My test case is to unplug any one disk while the system is running. (Don't do this with your system unless your hardware is specified for hot plugging!). FreeBSD detects a bus reset, marks the gmirror as degraded and continues operating normally, and I can also reboot the degraded gmirror without any problems. The more conservative test case is to power down the system, unplug any one disk, and restart the system. No problems with that either. In fact, the absolutely robust behaviour of gmirror was one of my key arguments for switching from Linux to FreeBSD :-). Of course there are a zillion ways to fail your hard disk, and there could be cases where one hard disk might start behaving erratically, and gmirror might not be able to detect all such cases and might try to continue using the failed disk. This could theoretically lead to some nasty data integrity issues in the worst case. But this is true for any RAID, even when implemented in hardware IMO.

Yes, it is: but with Windows 2000/XP and Outlook 2003, it's not magic.

All I can say is that my own view is that the bigger the network, the more important it is to get software standardised across the organisation to reduce your support costs, and the cheaper it is to do through volume licensing. We're a small, donor-funded, African NGO, and we have two versions of Windows (2000 and XP) and one version of Office (2003). We will use Microsoft's down-licensing provision to stick with what we have until we're ready to upgrade everyone. > Everyone supports LOGIN and PLAIN.

No, Outlook 2003 doesn't support PLAIN - at least I couldn't get it to. That's why I enabled LOGIN. It's true that NTLM is the only encrypted password protocol supported by Microsoft - that's why I'm using an encryption layer with cleartext authentication. > > > The honest to god truth of the matter is that encrypting your POP3 > > > and SMTP auth passwords is difficult to do on a large scale no matter > > > what road you pick to do it, so there is really not a lot of point to > > > doing it unless your in a rather limited environment. > > > > I'm not sure I would agree with this statement either. > > I perhaps should have explained this more.

It can also offer integrity - an assurance that the message is from the authenticated identity. Although that assurance is only valid at the first server (the MSA), that may be enough to prevent injection of a variety of kinds of junk with forged sender information. > But in most cases, the wire isn't sniffable.

In practice, even though I run a VPN as well, I still use TLS at the individual service level to protect passwords ``in flight''. > And even if you have valid concerns on password sniffing well > that's simple enough to address - don't be an idiot and use > the same user name and password for your e-mail clients as > you use for your network and windows logins. I would dispute that this is idiotic. You do need to protect the password much more carefully, but there are advantages to having a single password, easily changed by the user and easily cancelled when the user leaves.

The longest part of the design, implementation and rollout of our new mail system was finding all the bits and pieces and working out how to put them together.

PLAIN and LOGIN are identical, it's merely a naming > convention. No. There are small differences but they are there. PLAIN sends a single string containing the authorization identity, authentication identity, and password. LOGIN expects a prompt to which it replies with the authc identity, then a second prompt to which it replies with the password. The protocol specifies that the content of the two prompts is irrelevant, but Outlook expects specific strings.

Again, I wouldn't run a network like that because of the support problems it causes - this being one example. You can buy one copy of Microsoft Office and a volume licence, and Microsoft will allow you to downlicense so that you can standardise on an earlier version until you are ready to upgrade. This approach to licensing is one thing they get right, IMO. > For older Outlook versions, you can't just do 6 clicks and install > it.

Yes, but in a business environment, almost the first problem you need to solve is controlling which clients are going to connect to the mail server. If you haven't managed to standardise on one or two clients across a large organisation, you're probably too busy doing support to worry about setting up a new email system. > > but by and large it's just putting a few slightly scary-sounding > > pieces together on the server - all of which are either in the > > base system (sendmail: most of the objections to sendmail haven't > > had any basis in reality for several years. > I agree wholeheartedly, I use sendmail for all my mailservers anyway. > > It's now as easy to configure as Postfix, IMHO, and hooking > > Mimedefang in as a milter gives you the ability to reject a lot of > > junk during the connection rather than after the fact) or easily > > added from ports. > greylist milter is also a good one to have. I haven't tried putting any obstacles in the way of incoming mail over and above the difficulties many mail admins cause themselves. You would be astonished at what I see coming over the transom on my mailservers, especially the Mailman box (we host a number of lists). As it is, we take a few steps that end up rejecting over 80% of our incoming connections. > Seriously, it is just a bit more complicated that your making it > seem. Yes and no. It's a big deal trying to get your head round all the different packages, all the various options, and all the conflicting advice; but having done it once, I'm confident I could do it again quickly and simply and that (if I had world enough, and time) I could talk someone else through the process, not only of doing it, but of understanding it. > And, when the OP gets around to asking SPECIFIC questions > about these packages then I'll be quite ready to post the options > I use to turn them on and so on, as I'm sure you will.

May I first suggest you read the handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ I will attempt to give you some quick hints to get you started, but you will find a lot of details for all this stuff in the handbook, and also googling and searching the list archives. > 1.

I usually perform a custom installation and select absolutely everything but the Xorg distribution, which has been updated anyway and there is no real reason to install from CD at this point. > 2.

Most people however tend to compile from source (the ports system). I use portupgrade (which you can install from /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portupgrade or portupgrade-devel port), and there is an option in it to use binary packages. I can do something like: portupgrade -PP -a to upgrade all my apps using binary packages. However I much prefer to use ports (except for large apps like openoffice that may - depending on your hardware - take even days to compile). In fact for some ports you may not get a binary package at all, or it may be outdated. Ports always offer the latest version. There are quite a few port management utilities except portupgrade as well. > 3.

Then, how > am I supposed to upgrade them without ending up with multiple versions? > That is because you have not installed any packages really! You just have the base system, which is not managed by these utilities. Pkg_info is for third party apps you install from ports (or binary packages). If you need to upgrade the base system there are quite a few options: 1. Run the freebsd-update utility to get your system up to date by downloading binary patches for the main system. You will still be running a -RELEASE version, albeit a patched one (e.g. 6.2-RELEASE-p7). These are mostly security patches. 2. Use csup to get the sources from -STABLE or -CURRENT, compile and install kernel and world. You will get either a STABLE or a CURRENT system. The process is well described in the handbook. If you are a beginner I suggest you stay with the RELEASE (+freebsd-update) version for a while. This is painless (just two commands: freebsd-update fetch followed by freebsd-update install). As an intermediate step, learn how to configure & compile your own custom kernel (it is easier than it sounds, and also well described in the handbook). 3. Upgrade from CD/DVD when a new release is out. > 4. I want to avoid the -CURRENT branch and want to stay with -STABLE > branch for now. The page http://www.freebsd.org/ports/index.html says: > "The Ports Collection supports the latest release on the > FreeBSD-CURRENT > and FreeBSD-STABLE branches." > This not clear to me: If I start using ports, am I on -STABLE or not? > You will be using STABLE only if you use csup to get the sources for the base system, and perform (2) above. It is perfectly valid to install updated ports on a RELEASE system. For this, you will have to update your ports tree using csup. A quick start for this: - copy the file /usr/share/examples/ports-supfile to a convenient place (e.g. /root) - Edit the copied file and change the host line (CHANGE_THIS) to a mirror near you. - Run a command like csup -g -L 2 /root/ports-supfile to upgrade your ports tree Many beginners are confused by the idea that csup (or cvsup) can be used to upgrade both the ports tree (for applications) and the src tree (base system upgrades). Yes, it is the same utility, but you will be using different configuration files. > 5. make.conf is blank by default.

We pulled drives while the system was running, rebooted, the works. We found gmirror to be pretty fault tolerant and were not able to get it to fail. If you pull your main drive, the system was always able to successfully boot from the second drive. Rebuilding was always possible, as well. Our tests were done on older Dell PowerEdge 1650's with Fujitsu SCSI drives. I don't know specifically what model/manufacturer the motherboard is.

That was uncalled for. My time is limited because of my having to juggle so many things at once, and working on the road isn't helping me any (as much as I like the work). My wife is now travelling with me, so that was also part of the equation. Things will slow down eventually, and I'll be back then. I basically took your response as your calling me a lazy whiner... To that, I must say that I save lazy for Sundays (or until I pass out). The whiner part... I'm not much for the drink... :) I appreciate you, Ted. Over the years, I've learned a lot from you, and hell.... I even have your book... But I'll be damned if you don't parse me off sometimes. :) Anyway... A public apology for a public ass-showing...

Congratulations. This is an international project and not your parochial meeting where you can discuss the knowledge gleaned from TV end enjoy such fascinating vocabulary and deductions related to someone's TLD.

I've now seen the exact same problem with an old MOBO when I loaded FBSD 6.2. IOW, the following appears to be a 6.2 artifact: During the boot probe, FreeBSD 6.2 (Release or -STABLE) hangs for several minutes while probing the floppy. Eventually, it does get through it, but it takes a loooong time. Disabling the floppy in the machine BIOS makes the problem go away because FBSD sees no floppy to probe, but that's not an optimal soltion. I DAGS and saw that others have seen this same problem but could not find a solution anywhere ...

Have been watching this thread and cannot understand how it came that such a flame war broke out. Please cool down and stop sending rubbish to everyone's inbox.

The ONLY way to get someone to re-examine their assumptions is to piss them off. It's why politicians get more votes rabble-rousing than telling everyone how great things are. And naturally, those that don't want to re-examine their own ass-umptions don't like being pissed off, don't like rabble-rousers, and bitch when they see rabble-rousing. But, change never happens easy. Your not going to get a Windows users switched over to Open Source unless you piss him off - force him to defend his ass-umption that Windows is the greatest operating system since sliced bread. Doing this is what gets him to re-examine his assumptions. And that is after all the name of the game here - to get the people away from the unhealthy MS monopolizing of the computer business that are salvagable. > Anyway... A public apology for a public ass-showing... And I > don't want to > leave the board with the impression that I'm an ass (or at least > a complete > one), No problem Mike - and I apologize as well for saying you were whining. As I said, I didn't take your post originally as a troll's post. But I do take exception to the implication - perhaps unintended - that Ubuntu takes less "tinker-time". Ubuntu is configured a certain way - if your needs align with how it is configured it is going to take less time -for you- to tweak. As is, Windows is configured a certain way, if it aligns with someone's needs then it will take less time for -that- person to tweak. This is how it is with all the "canned configuration" operating systems. Right now Ubuntu is growing very fast since it's canned configuration is the closest alignment with Windows among the Linuxes, so it's really easy to get dissatisfied Windows users who aren't willing to expend a lot of effort migrating. And it's natural for new users of any OS to wax poetic about it's good points - after all that's why they moved over - so I have to remember that right now there's going to be a lot of Ubuntu new users waxing poetic about how great Ubuntu is. But it is trying to have to read the same thing over and over on the public mailing lists and message boards. As I said, don't apologize for using an OS that matches your needs better than FreeBSD. Just don't assume that everyone's needs are the same as yours, and we would all be spending less time tinkering with Ubuntu, or even FreeBSD for that matter.

The fact you posted at all indicates your aware that competence is learned and that you want to become competent.

Only if there is a possiblity that the communication channel can be tapped. The phrase "going over the Internet" is so broad as to be completely meaningless. You can mean just about everything from completely unencrypted wireless to an untappable OC3 between providers. Most password cracking takes place on the client - all the encryption in the world won't protect you from clueless users who click on URLs in e-mails they get. > I do know that mail (and other) servers should live in jails. They can if you want. However I have never done so and never had a mailserver rooted. Of course, I have kept stuff reasonably up to date - that is the other part of the issue. In any case running in a jail does not really address the biggest problems with mailservers - their hijacking by spammers and other criminals. By definition a mailserver transfers mail. Putting it's programs in a jail does not make it cease to transfer mail. If such mail transfer happens between the people you want it to happen between, then great. But if you misconfigure the stuff you have jailed, the mailserver will happily transfer mail between the people you don't want it transferring mail from and everyone else. > I do know not to run an open relay (take email from any server to > deliver to any server, without authentication, and plan to achieve > this by only allowing incoming mail). I would submit you think you do. For example, are you planning on putting a webmail interface on the server? A lot of people do. Well if you do and you put a scrap of CGI on there that has a hole in it a spammer can come along and cause that to relay mail from incoming http right into your mail queue.

I do not know anything about this application, but you are almost certainly using the wrong flavor of make. Odds are good you want gmake, especially if this it GNUish application, but there are also other flavors. -- Lars Eighner http://www.larseighner.com/index.html 8800 N IH35 APT 1191 AUSTIN TX 78753-5266 From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Wed Sep 5 16:08:00 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4A82B16A494 for ; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 16:08:00 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from zszalbot@gmail.com) Received: from rv-out-0910.google.com (rv-out-0910.google.com [209.85.198.188]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7084013C4EB for ; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 16:07:49 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from zszalbot@gmail.com) Received: by rv-out-0910.google.com with SMTP id l15so1374432rvb for ; Wed, 05 Sep 2007 09:07:35 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=beta; h=domainkey-signature:received:received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:in-reply-to:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition:references; b=FNgF+rZHEJwJFUPg3KEdVfJdiBfqg/0rAp3sNVtzLAYXznbYjPf5ch0Pf+K6gZMX64OVrUniFCDfnQz2SncMvHKNJs1GakjiL/dOFuXNWjSdzwvK2BUuw9tT9JGBo+2O11XNz2B5rFSrXfMX4fIR6BmOgks3cWE6ZMJSj0QACY8= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=beta; h=received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:in-reply-to:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition:references; b=EzjRolHkIYCLdL8H10qr9tdGLPU60i7WFW2VRTZPkjtshnRKJhwThj+j76xfKRiuH41Dp3FafYyMmFBQyd7srqhURFpmKSGS19yZJRdo7q/MHmw2YSlXgju2JT9GzRXOaloiiME9gEwa/OBtEl2N1LWKnke6q2LiHRU3r+vjPF4= Received: by 10.141.203.12 with SMTP id f12mr2883975rvq.1189008455396; Wed, 05 Sep 2007 09:07:35 -0700 (PDT) Received: by 10.141.79.9 with HTTP; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 09:07:35 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <94136a2c0709050907q38a2bd4elb2ca7f531f83d792@mail.gmail.com> Date: Wed, 5 Sep 2007 18:07:35 +0200 From: "Zbigniew Szalbot" To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org In-Reply-To: <200709051600.l85G0d56006186@smtpclu-5.eunet.yu> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline References: <200709050640.l856eQ7f026093@eunet.yu> <200709051519.l85FJPIx006295@eunet.yu> <94136a2c0709050844v112e3478l5e30af2fef4aebbb@mail.gmail.com> <200709051600.l85G0d56006186@smtpclu-5.eunet.yu> Subject: Re: mail server setup questions X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 05 Sep 2007 16:08:00 -0000 Hello, > Zbigniew, please don't teach me lessons in politeness.

Be careful when using word "rubbish". My apologies. I shoudn't have used the word rubbish. But please take into account that: 1. I am interested in the subject of mail server setup so I generally follow such threads 2. For the whole day I have been opening emails where you exchange opinions that have nothing to do with mail server setup. 3. I have no intention of teaching anyone lessons in politness. If this has been your impression, I need to apologize again.

The following works for me; 1) Make sure that the CD/DVD rewriter is controlled as a SCSI device instead of an ATAPI device.

Do you know a relatively easy way to install a new system with gjournal? What I am seeing is: GEOM_JOURNAL: Journal $JournalID: ad0s2a contains data. GEOM_JOURNAL: Journal $JournalID: ad0s2d contains journal. Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/ad0s2a.journal Then I get to the famous mountroot kernel prompt... /dev/ad0s2a is also not accessible anymore, which makes perfect sence, since gjournal has locked it. I also did tunefs -J enable /dev/ad0s2a.journal. What I never did is adding -J to newfs opts during installation(sysinstall). Where am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

Unless I really need something that doesn't have a pkg available, I will not be using ports. I've always used portupgrade, and plan to do so, using -PP (only packages) for this setup. My first question is should I? Doing'pkg_add -r portupgrade' and it installed fine. Using pkgdb -F however, resulted in these messages: bsd# pkgdb -F cd: can't cd to /usr/ports cd: can't cd to /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portupgrade cd: can't cd to /usr/ports ----> Chcecking the package registry database Any help appreciated.

This is fine unless 2 ports depend on the same one -- i.e the glib related ones esp. The makes will "rm -f the .o" files and confuse one another. If this happens no biggie, just rerun the make for that port in one window. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Philip M.

On most systems with support ACPI, your colo provider can simply press the power button on the front of your server. FreeBSD's kernel will pick up the signal and shut down cleanly. Once you're moved, they can press the same button to power the system on. There is *NO* need to give them login access to the box. Also, they could simply call you to have you shut it down. ----- Eric F Crist Secure Computing Networks From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Wed Sep 5 18:12:41 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4078716A420 for ; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 18:12:41 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from nlecic@EUnet.yu) Received: from smtpclu-2.EUnet.yu (smtpclu-2.eunet.yu [194.247.192.227]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A4C3B13C474 for ; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 18:12:40 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from nlecic@EUnet.yu) Received: from nyx.localhost (adsl-223-251.eunet.yu [213.198.223.251]) by smtpclu-2.EUnet.yu (8.13.6/8.13.6) with ESMTP id l85IC8I1024908; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 20:12:09 +0200 Message-Id: <200709051812.l85IC8I1024908@smtpclu-2.EUnet.yu> Date: Wed, 5 Sep 2007 20:12:36 +0200 From: Nikola Lecic To: Jerry McAllister In-Reply-To: <20070905162851.GA31583@gizmo.acns.msu.edu> References: <46DE7148.7090602@caf.com.tr> <20070905162851.GA31583@gizmo.acns.msu.edu> X-Mailer: Claws Mail 2.10.0 (GTK+ 2.10.14; i386-portbld-freebsd6.2) X-Operating-System: FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE X-Face: pbl6-.[$G'Fi(Ogs2xlXP-V6{3||$Y[LOYs&~GJoikj'cVjcFC[V7du;;0~6nO= [Vi2?uU1Pq~,=Adj@,T:|"`$AF~il]J.Nz#2pU',Y7.{B;m/?{#sO^Dvo$rnmY6] Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable X-EUNET-AVAS-Milter-Version: 2.0.0 X-AVAS-Virus-Status: clean X-AVAS-Spamd-Symbols: BAYES_50,UNPARSEABLE_RELAY X-AVAS-Spam-Score: 0.0 Cc: Eray Aslan , freebsd-questions@freebsd.org, Ted Mittelstaedt Subject: Re: mail server setup questions X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 05 Sep 2007 18:12:41 -0000 On Wed, 5 Sep 2007 12:28:51 -0400 Jerry McAllister wrote: > Come on folks.

Downloading should never interference with compiling (other than faster consumption of disk space :) ), so this is an improvement that can/should be made. Send the recommendation to the commiters?

Hi Mike. Let me see if I've got this... you want to be able to install packages, but not ports. Well, that's easy... # rm -R /usr/ports Saves you a load of disk space, too. The only downside is you get slightly older versions of software with packages. Oh, and don't use portsnap, it'll undo that "rm -R" for you. Using "portupgrade -PP" works perfectly well on those rare occasions when I want to install a package rather than a port. I guess you could delete all executables matching "port*", but that might be going too far. You could get rid of two of those error messages by doing a: # mkdir /usr/ports Regards, Adam J Richardson From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Wed Sep 5 18:53:42 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 967AC16A421 for ; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 18:53:42 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from fbsd.questions@rachie.is-a-geek.net) Received: from snoogles.rachie.is-a-geek.net (66-230-99-27-cdsl-rb1.nwc.acsalaska.net [66.230.99.27]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 627E313C461 for ; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 18:53:42 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from fbsd.questions@rachie.is-a-geek.net) Received: from localhost (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by snoogles.rachie.is-a-geek.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id D18EA1CCA6 for ; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 10:53:25 -0800 (AKDT) From: Mel To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Wed, 5 Sep 2007 20:53:24 +0200 User-Agent: KMail/1.9.7 References: <46DECE7F.3000909@fid4.com> In-Reply-To: <46DECE7F.3000909@fid4.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Message-Id: <200709052053.24538.fbsd.questions@rachie.is-a-geek.net> Subject: Re: /usr/ports & portupgrade when only using packages X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 05 Sep 2007 18:53:42 -0000 On Wednesday 05 September 2007 17:42:55 Michael C.

My first question is should I? It needs the ports tree to know which packages to *upgrade*. I know of no ports management system that is able to use only binary and no ports tree. If you need to save space, consider mounting /usr/ports via nfs. Now, whether you should use portupgrade...I'm not very positive about it and currently writing my own tools to do just that. I found that portupgrade uses a lot of things it shouldn't need to when in -PP mode (most notably running make all-depends-list before installing a new port and unpacking the entire package just to read it's +CONTENTS file for dependencies). With an ever growing ports tree and the recent Xorg split, adding ~200 new packages to the basic install, I find it to become very slow. If you're going to be using packages you build yourself on a build machine, like I'm doing, you're even in for a bigger surprise, because they are built using the 'packages' target. This target creates plist, which then becomes the packages' +CONTENTS file, on many occasions different from what has been installed on your build machine. You could manage with pkg_add/pkg_delete, but then: 1) *You* have to find out which packages are eligible for upgrading 2) Upgrading a package will mean delete the old version before installing the new one 3) *You* will have to backup libraries manually. (Yes, I realize portupgrade does this) -- Mel People using reply to all on lists, must think I need 2 copies.

Reading the man pages and the handbook about using packages didn't say anything about needing /usr/ports, so before I went and used portsnap etc. I thought I'd ask first.

Send the recommendation to the commiters? I think the logic of "what ports need to be done next" is hard to work into the basic ports system. You could request the feature from the various ports in /usr/ports/ports-mgmt - software like portupgrade should be able to build a list of ports that need updating and start fetching in background. -- Mel People using reply to all on lists, must think I need 2 copies.

If you know the full list of leaf ports you want installed, you could do something like this for each port, which should fetch and allow you to config all your ports. You could run this on a seperate terminal for each port. # cd /usr/ports/category/port && make config-recursive fetch-recursive > Downloading should never interference with compiling (other than > faster consumption of disk space :) ), so this is an improvement that > can/should be made.

There is no real problem with sendmail. Maybe there was years ago, but it works fine. Some of the configuration can be rather arcane, but mostly people just get their favorite and want to defend it. ////jerry > Regards > Predrag > > P. S.

I think its mostly a matter of preference but I havent delved into Exim too much. Personally I run Postfix and Dovecot for my mail server setup.

If you use -P it will combine them giving a chance to a package first. You can tune this behaviour in pkgtools.conf using USE_PKGS and USE_PKGS_ONLY. If you keep an eye on appereance of newly built packages on FreeBSD servers (sometimes it is announced, e.g. after big Xorg upgrade) you can use -PP more comfortably. Otherwise, some (easily curable) inconsistencies might occur. If you use -PP, make sure you have the correct PKG_SITES variable (pointing to stable dir), or you will fetch very ancient versions. If a machine is slow, it's a good idea to fetch packages first (either with '-P -F' or with '-PP -F') and have a look what will be used in a real install.

Andrey, I can't speak of exim or qmail, but I had used sendmail for nearly 10 years before switching to postfix. I switched was for support of virtual mail boxes, and better support for IMAP. Regardless of the software you choose, it's to your benefit to figure out what you want to do in the long run, and choose the software that is best going to allow you to achieve those goals.

Exim is highly customizable, but the price you pay for that is a steep learning curve when you start looking at customization. Courier isn't as flexible, but can do anything most people are likely to want from a mail server by just setting the appropriate configuration values. And if you just must have more complexity, you can use procmail to do local delivery for Courier. FWIW I use Courier at home and Exim at work. We replaced Qmail (yech!) with Exim at work in part because we needed its customizability. The only real reason for me to switch to Exim at home would be to reduce the number of tools I'm dealing with. Courier has the advantage of having everything (smtp, pop, imap, and webmail servers) all distributed as one package, other than the host web server for the webmail component. Whatever you do, please don't use Qmail. I don't want any more blowback spam than I already get. In case I haven't made myself clear, I despise Qmail with a passion. I suppose it is suitable for people who like puzzles (as in "What patches do I need to make this do something useful?" or "What third-party tool do I need to make sense out of these awful log files?") and who don't mind inflicting lots of unnecessary secondary spam on the rest of the world. Yes, I know there are _supposed_ to be patches that fix that problem, but (a) the one I've seen in action doesn't work very well, and (b) you shouldn't need to apply third-party patches to your mail server to make it do what it is supposed to do in the first place. - Bob From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Wed Sep 5 21:04:17 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E346516A418 for ; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 21:04:17 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from stapleton.41@gmail.com) Received: from fk-out-0910.google.com (fk-out-0910.google.com [209.85.128.187]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6688013C442 for ; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 21:04:17 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from stapleton.41@gmail.com) Received: by fk-out-0910.google.com with SMTP id b27so2515598fka for ; Wed, 05 Sep 2007 14:04:08 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=beta; h=domainkey-signature:received:received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:cc:in-reply-to:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition:references; b=pJdieK36BoVxhOktVbT7EpQY9ZQK1ff0pUu2YrJPJroNqHzL9Wz4Rj1iSD9jsv6O/xpUd0tLzKMhupgzvCHYRltmw63uvLlRJU38CA7Bw7v06McfwNk5tyHVd03JuIUn2cbbEwAZaOrW99iG+5IFtDoH6KpTqf265L75UYfhKyA= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=beta; h=received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:cc:in-reply-to:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition:references; b=d9e3Pti+kEvl1VB05Z0HOIxIMsoqyrqQAp6cHsUBhD+WEPTEAB/3kq5RGz7YZFM20SoZ1PaAbp2BOZsXHL8pVV5C8yKOnKHMemhWhftzzD2JoGcAyrdK27Gaj1eilYtgqKvxMc1f3R4o2m33nn8IS0DapUtsva2YgrFuE7o1Oqw= Received: by 10.82.183.19 with SMTP id g19mr17084226buf.1189026248157; Wed, 05 Sep 2007 14:04:08 -0700 (PDT) Received: by 10.82.191.14 with HTTP; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 14:04:08 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <80f4f2b20709051404l6091bafas48d63fd4076e8fef@mail.gmail.com> Date: Wed, 5 Sep 2007 17:04:08 -0400 From: "Jim Stapleton" To: "Ted Mittelstaedt" In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline References: <80f4f2b20709050354q4d186df4y6958e2f81d5dfc66@mail.gmail.com> Cc: Nikola Lecic , "Russell E.

Both postfix and exim are comparable and powerful MTAs. I personally use Exim but that's because I started with it. It is very customizable. For those who begin their adventure with exim, maybe even vexim is better because you get everything virtualised (virtual users, domains, etc.) and you define your emails, quotas, etc. via browser. http://silverwraith.com/vexim/ Regards, Zbigniew Szalbot From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Wed Sep 5 21:17:42 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C1BAC16A417 for ; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 21:17:42 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from fbsd.questions@rachie.is-a-geek.net) Received: from snoogles.rachie.is-a-geek.net (66-230-99-27-cdsl-rb1.nwc.acsalaska.net [66.230.99.27]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 62C6D13C461 for ; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 21:17:42 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from fbsd.questions@rachie.is-a-geek.net) Received: from localhost (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by snoogles.rachie.is-a-geek.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 494941CCA6 for ; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 13:17:41 -0800 (AKDT) From: Mel To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Wed, 5 Sep 2007 23:17:39 +0200 User-Agent: KMail/1.9.7 References: <46DECE7F.3000909@fid4.com> <200709052053.24538.fbsd.questions@rachie.is-a-geek.net> <200709052008.l85K8neO020335@smtpclu-3.eunet.yu> In-Reply-To: <200709052008.l85K8neO020335@smtpclu-3.eunet.yu> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Message-Id: <200709052317.40090.fbsd.questions@rachie.is-a-geek.net> Subject: Re: /usr/ports & portupgrade when only using packages X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 05 Sep 2007 21:17:42 -0000 On Wednesday 05 September 2007 22:09:18 Nikola Lecic wrote: > Mel, Nikola, > > On Wed, 5 Sep 2007 20:53:24 +0200 > Mel wrote: > > [...] You cut out some context there, relevant to your response.

It's not so obvious. If you use pkg_add thinking to upgrade package foo, you will instead get an error indicating that the package with that origin is already installed. > If you > compile through port, a package will be created on your machine after > compile, so the result should be the same (unless you have custom > options). A package is not automatically created (portupgrade -p does this). And no, packages created with -p (make package target) are not guaranteed to be the same as packages created with pkg_create -b, which portupgrade uses to repack dependants (portupgrade -rp). I still am figuring out exactly why this is (check out PKG_ARGS and ACTUAL_PACKAGE_DEPENDS magic in /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk), but I've compared +CONTENTS of installed port and it's package created by portupgrade on several occasions, and found it to be quite different, so my slave machines get the wrong dependencies. Now I just don't use -p on the build machine and run a php script to repack packages (recursively) after portupgrade -a. > > (Yes, I realize portupgrade does this) > > If a machine is slow, it's a good idea to fetch packages first (either > with '-P -F' or with '-PP -F') and have a look what will be used in a > real install. Trust me, I know portupgrade in and out and don't need to be convinced it does a good job running in source mode. Here's my list of things it does badly in -PP (binary) mode, please read carefully: - takes ages to find out dependencies contained in packages it downloaded, when the packages are big, because it extracts the entire package. [1] - downloads dependant packages that it later doesn't install, because the original package contains that dependency, but the local system contains a newer version. - When using portinstall -PP cat/foo it will go to /usr/ports/cat/foo and run make all-depends-list which recursively lists all dependencies, especially with Xorg ports, this takes ages before anything happens. It is a needless step in -PP mode, because it should just download the package archive, extract it's contents file, and work from there.

Exim is as suited for the task as Postfix and Sendmail. All three are in roughly the same class of mail transfer agent, and are roughly interchangeable in terms of functionality. Sendmail is very old-school Unix in its design philosophy, from what I've seen. Postfix is pretty easy to wrap your head around and is pretty light on resources when well-configured. Exim -- well, I suspect it has some excellent qualities to recommend it, but my personal experience is that it's a severe pain in my fourth point of contact to configure. Exim is the default MTA for Debian, and while I was using Debian I ended up swapping out Exim for Postfix on every install after I finally got tired of dealing with Exim's configuration complexities and caveats.

Basically, Qmail seems to have taken the philosophy of removing everything non-basic to make Qmail "secure" and "simple" by default. Unfortunately, as you hinted, this means Qmail requires a bunch of third-party add-ons, tools, plugins, and extensions to do anything useful, and those extras are not subject to the same standards of simplicity and security as Qmail itself. The end result is that Qmail servers tend to end up badly unsecured and something of a nightmare to maintain -- or, at least, that's what I've seen.

Me, personally, I can only swear by Postfix. I've set up numerous Postfix mail servers over the last two years, and I've never had trouble with them as to this date. Postfix is robust (I've never had an error condition that _lost_ mails, so far), (actually) pretty easy to configure in comparison to sendmail and (IMHO) exim, simply because the documentation is extensive and the directives are clear and concise for the main configuration (that's for the main.cf; master.cf, which dispatches the different parts that make up Postfix, is a different topic, but you needn't touch that under most circumstances), and it's easily extensible my its extensive use of the generic feature of "maps" for any lookups required for configuration options (a map can basically come from anything, such as get*ent, flat db files, relational databases, a socket protocol, and some other things which you'd possibly not even dreamed about). By using the Postfix mail filter APIs (completely different to milter, but milter is also possible AFAIK in Postfix 2.3+), I've hacked together a small Anti-Harvester plugin in an afternoon for the three big servers I administered, and there's tons of software out there that plugs in with Postfix to do things like greylisting, spam control, mail traffic accounting and rate limiting, and the like. The architecture of Postfix I'm talking about is called the policy framework. Thirdly, I don't recall a major security vulverability in Postfix for quite some time now (longer than from what I know of sendmail, anyway, but this might be my biased vision), and generally, you can expect Postfix to come preconfigured "safe", unless you explicitly open it up (which isn't easy to do). On the other hand: besides trying sendmail some years back (I still have the O'Reilly sendmail book somewhere on my shelf), I've never tried a different mailer in a production environment yet, so the value of my answer may vary. I know most of my peers who deploy Debian in server environment swear by exim (I should guess because it comes preinstalled and is the default for them), but again, I recall the horror I faced when I had a look at the exim configuration of my uni when I had to change mail routing (because their exim mailserver got blacklisted, and had to route through one of the servers administered by me to be able to get out mails at all; that was a happy moment in my student admin career :-)). Anyway, have a look at Postfix, I can pretty much guarantee you that it'll suck you in! -- Heiko Wundram Product & Application Development From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Wed Sep 5 22:03:15 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4A6A016A419 for ; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 22:03:15 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from richard@inf.ed.ac.uk) Received: from nutty.inf.ed.ac.uk (nutty.inf.ed.ac.uk [129.215.216.3]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id CDDDB13C468 for ; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 22:03:12 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from richard@inf.ed.ac.uk) Received: from macpro.inf.ed.ac.uk (macpro.inf.ed.ac.uk [129.215.164.231]) by nutty.inf.ed.ac.uk (8.13.8/8.13.8) with ESMTP id l85M3BWh017929 for ; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 23:03:11 +0100 Received: by macpro.inf.ed.ac.uk (Postfix, from userid 26013) id 6EF69258F8C; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 23:03:10 +0100 (BST) From: Richard Tobin To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Organization: just say no X-Mailer: Ream 5.1.51-richard-mac Message-Id: <20070905220310.6EF69258F8C@macpro.inf.ed.ac.uk> Date: Wed, 5 Sep 2007 23:03:10 +0100 (BST) Subject: Disk errors when copying X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 05 Sep 2007 22:03:15 -0000 When copy between disks (ad10 ->ad8), I get errors: ad10: WARNING - READ_DMA48 UDMA ICRC error (retrying request) LBA=435128800 ad10: FAILURE - READ_DMA48 status=51 error=10 LBA=435128800 g_vfs_done():ad10s2g[READ(offset=175562145792, length=131072)]error = 5 I don't get these errors just reading the data from ad10.

I'd like to have at least a terabyte of redundant disk storage (probably RAID5), so I'm trying to figure out which controller would give me the best results. My two main candidates are Areca ARC-1210, and 3ware 9650SE-4LPML. Both are 4-lane SATA II controllers. Both cost about the same, and from what I gather, both should be supported by FreeBSD. I read the reviews, but would like to get some additional feedback specifically for using the two under FreeBSD (maybe one has better drivers... I don't know). I plan to get Gigabyte's GA-P35-DQ6 motherboard (btw, any compatibility issues I should know about?), which has a 4x PCIe slot. ARC-1210 uses 8x, but since the physical size of the slot is actually 16x, there shouldn't be a problem. Don't think the controller will be able to use 2GB/s of bandwidth to its limit anyway. So that's basically my setup. I'd like to know if anyone here has personal experience with either controller. Are there any stability issues? Which one would give me best performance with 4 drives in RAID5? Which one has more mature drivers? If you have some other recommendations, I'm happy to hear those as well.

In truth, I thought this was the worst idea of 'em all (sorry to whoever posted it...). Group operator can read all your disks - it was created in the days when there really was an operator who did stuff like backups. Put yourself in it by all means, but give that to a stranger? Not me... To add to the solutions, you could create a user in group operator with a new ssh key that specifically executed shutdown, since you use ssh keys already. I'd still take it away the moment the box was moved. Or just set their shell to shutdown. But no general purpose login. Also, on my system, shutdown already is in group operator, but maybe I just did it by hand and forgot. 10 -r-sr-x--- 1 root operator - 10200 Sep 30 2006 /sbin/shutdown* --Alex From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Sep 6 00:46:45 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 17E9516A418 for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 00:46:45 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from danny@ricin.com) Received: from smtpq1.groni1.gr.home.nl (smtpq1.groni1.gr.home.nl [213.51.130.200]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A6E0B13C442 for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 00:46:44 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from danny@ricin.com) Received: from [213.51.130.188] (port=41676 helo=smtp3.groni1.gr.home.nl) by smtpq1.groni1.gr.home.nl with esmtp (Exim 4.30) id 1IT54k-0004L3-TF for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Thu, 06 Sep 2007 02:18:26 +0200 Received: from cp1228410-a.dbsch1.nb.home.nl ([84.27.157.163]:56633 helo=desktop.homenet) by smtp3.groni1.gr.home.nl with esmtp (Exim 4.30) id 1IT54j-0005Qg-Bd for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Thu, 06 Sep 2007 02:18:25 +0200 From: Danny Pansters To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Thu, 6 Sep 2007 02:18:04 +0200 User-Agent: KMail/1.9.7 References: <090520071906.4943.46DEFE460008FCB60000134F220642461308099A0E0B0B0703D20D010D@comcast.net> In-Reply-To: <090520071906.4943.46DEFE460008FCB60000134F220642461308099A0E0B0B0703D20D010D@comcast.net> X-Face: U%PgEJ2IfD9niTG.6[,9!; !G|I$ZCvvZDD|.X; H*T1xqk>Fc$W?~t]FD@a4))=?utf-8?q?=2EFi=5CCn4!=7D=0A=09?=,u!3+a^.v+%fL2J~SN%'23mIhZ#G#i=[NZv#w*Q& X-AtHome-MailScanner-Information: Please contact support@home.nl for more information X-AtHome-MailScanner: Found to be clean Subject: Re: Sadly, my tinker-time has run out....

Look, Ted's right (ouch, that hurt ;-). Quite often -- arguably always -- if you really want to be heard you have to be able to confront controversial issues head on and tell it like it is (ok, or rather how you think/feel/know it is). If you're on the other side of such an issue, it's easy to publicly nod and safely join the herd, but it's much harder to go against the grain. It's not called 'against the grain' for nothing. And though I not always (probably mostly not) agree with Ted, I for one respect such a personality trait. It's easy to be a yes-man, it's much harder to be a no-man. But if you believe in certain things or find that you have gathered adequate evidence to support a different opinion, it's a good thing to have the balls to say so. Nice form and good manners are valuable, but if only used in order to maintain status quo they're merely shields for the "yes-men". Besides, I'm of the persuasion that thinks that a good flamewar now and than isn't that bad, it's probably more harmful if the environment is such that any strong resentment cannot be expressed without some form of repraisal (sp?). Once you find yourself in such an environment it's do or die and you bet that folks are going to leave eventually. For that reason alone, I believe that the FreeBSD community actually needs people that tend to go against the grain from time to time. It's a healthy thing. Now to get back to the subject, what I don't understand is how OP thinks that [k]ubuntu would not need tinkering time. It's quite possible that a generic debian or arch install requires less tinkering to get it to behave the way you want (perhaps initially some more, but not after). Why not buy one of those gorgeous new imacs or a Mac lappy and be done with it, while still being able to do a lot of hacking if you really want to? From what I've read OSX is a great development system.

I use Windows on my workstation at work. 90% of our servers run FreeBSD. In the past, I have run into issues using particular software with FreeBSD at home, so I just ran Windows. Since I rarely use a PC when I'm at home, and it's more for the kids/wife, I recently acquired a new PC for my home environment from a corporation that had no OS on it. I knew FreeBSD would not do the job in it's entirety (none of my FBSD boxes have anything resembling a GUI near it), so I tried Ubuntu. Looks great, the GUI comes up perfectly right after install. Personally though, the only thing I have a hard time with is commands aren't in the *right* place, or missing entirely. Same for config files etc. (CLI obviously). Not only that, there are specific tasks that I want to do via GUI, but you (OP) like I, have not the time to figure it out. The entire issue comes down to what works for *YOU*. Does FBSD do what you need, and also satisfy the requirements for everyone else who will use it? If not, does Windows? I didn't go with Windows, because I am certain I can have our home PC do what my family needs it to do with something else. However, that said, if it comes down to it, and I have to fudge too much longer to make it just work, then yes, Windows it is, and I will begrudgingly go purchase another license. If you don't have time to get one OS working properly to your requirements, then go for one that you know will work globally in your environment. Your original post stated: "Sadly, I need to get an OS that my wife would be more comfortable using and that wouldn't be as time-comsuming to make it more comfortable for her." ...how 'bout you ask HER what SHE wants here? By reviewing the thread, you are busy on the road working, so if she feels a license for Windows is the answer, then you are obviously busy enough with work to justify the cost to offset the lost time in implementing something else...right?

I second all these points. I think it's probably better to use sendmail than qmail. Sendmail at least supports most (all?) SMTP / antispam related features, it is well documented , and configurable to the extreme (with the caveat that its configuration may be a bit daunting to the un-initiated :D). I just realised that qmail appears over and over in Linux distros, or at least on linux servers i've had to suffer... not sure the relationship there (in design / philosophy...)... and I am really NOT wanting to start a flame war. Just a thought that crossed my mind as I was reading this thread.

Would still like to know a bit more about Areca, since I have no experience with them and only heard about their products recently. As an alternative, I was considering the cheap(er) option. The motherboard (GA-P35-DQ6) comes with 6 SATA II ports connected to ICH9R. I have a feeling that using RAID 5 with this option would be rather slow, that's why I'm looking into a dedicated hardware controller. However, RAID 10 is a fairly simple implementation. I can't use RAID 0 because I need redundancy, and RAID 1 is too slow. RAID 10 obviously requires more drives, but for the $300 that I would have spent on the controller, maybe instead it's worth to simply buy an additional drive or two and use the built-in controller. Any thoughts on this? I could probably get 4 320GB Seagate 7200.10 drives to begin with and have 640GB of space. Would add two more later on when I need them. This actually turns out to be cheaper initially than getting 3 of those drives along with a hardware controller. My guess is that performance may also be better due to simplicity of design. How does FreeBSD play with ICH9R RAID? - Max From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Sep 6 05:05:23 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E446416A417 for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 05:05:22 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from tuxgirl@gmail.com) Received: from nz-out-0506.google.com (nz-out-0506.google.com [64.233.162.239]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 92DDE13C45E for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 05:05:22 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from tuxgirl@gmail.com) Received: by nz-out-0506.google.com with SMTP id l8so38818nzf for ; Wed, 05 Sep 2007 22:05:03 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=beta; h=domainkey-signature:received:received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:mime-version:content-type; bh=GARZ3SC3YnpfZB6gf2NDv1bXNraTvsnPNn+grc3S8S4=; b=MfoMvRgMikuMeL1JsyMN6ZVYCGrOlKBtiZkeyzeLjYPiCG/QWwti3U1y5SWEkqbBw5AASfqekKyJigAyVUDbbvXHvT6/tGIaZIFIGnsklOllCTRyB2q2Q+Ts8VlJEb2UFIU8H8GHhL5W5An2o9qwy/ogXcUCNC26TZxKYyhGITk= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=beta; h=received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:mime-version:content-type; b=k/JFMYwd+TmYkLNZXfbcBVeyqE/uzQFOLmnzAmyCQLP0N4qnuhU4ahL11V/Jnt/IE68AEpFh4zOs60d37fqrDqkA/znZwVhZpSaGyjEHPj5G0MdJWtkVEscNbsgofoGeJC6FpHyQWnJSTvrAaaU7m7YmKqcFV5bd89dMgj2I64k= Received: by 10.142.239.11 with SMTP id m11mr7558wfh.1189053349054; Wed, 05 Sep 2007 21:35:49 -0700 (PDT) Received: by 10.143.163.14 with HTTP; Wed, 5 Sep 2007 21:35:49 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <6e4453640709052135k61dc4097nb79c03e4672e5489@mail.gmail.com> Date: Wed, 5 Sep 2007 21:35:49 -0700 From: "Erin McNew" To: questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.5 Cc: Subject: Canon A620, FreeBSD and gphoto2 X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 06 Sep 2007 05:05:23 -0000 I'm trying to get my Canon A620 camera to work with gphoto2 under FreeBSD. dmesg is telling me that my camera is /dev/ugen0.

What does: ldconfig -r | grep mysql return? If there is no mention of libmysql.so.15, then that explains the symptoms you're seeing. libmysql.so.15 should be found in /usr/local/lib/mysql and that directory should have been added to the ldconfig search directories when you installed the mysql-client port. You can try adding it in manually if it isn't there by: ldconfig -m /usr/local/lib/mysql Note too this warning from ldconfig(8): For security reasons, directories which are world or group-writable or which are not owned by root produce warning messages and are skipped, unless the -i option is present.

That sounds like a line from a MS sales rep.

The costs for licensing on that program are -unbelievably- cheap. It completely changes the capital cost/support cost equation that yes, indeed, it almost always makes sense to upgrade across the board under that program. For most for-profit corporations it is -very- expensive to upgrade across the board. It also causes costs to spike in some years - most corporations hate that. Most corporations when faced with a choice of spending $50K a year, every year, from now until doomsday, or a choice of spending $100K every 3 years, from now until doomsday, they will take the $50K a year, even though over the long run it costs them more. The reason is due to cash flow. This is also why corporations will buy a photocopier for $10K, and immediately stick it on a 5 year lease that will cost them $3K a year in interest and principal. Yes I know it is stupid and it used to drive me banannas when I worked as an accouting clerk a couple decades ago, but it is how businesses (at least in the US) do business. Anyway, because of this most large corps follow a staggered upgrade plan. Every 4 years a quarter of their employees get brand new computers and a quarter of the computers they have in production get scrapped. Or, every 3 years a third get new stuff. Or every 5 years a 5th get new stuff. Whatever they decide to budget for. This is why Microsoft has twice extended the End Of Life software support deadline for Windows XP. Corporations are nowadays treating their computing purchases the same way they treat other capital expenditures, by staggering the costs over time. The days of across the board software upgrades are over and done with, except for government contracts where most governments are still clueless. > > Everyone supports LOGIN and PLAIN.

I am not convinced though that most people dealing with certs understand what an outside channel is and how it relates to the integrity aspect, including most users, so this is more of a philosophical than a practical discussion. > > But in most cases, the wire isn't sniffable. > > Given that, certainly in my case, the ``wire'' may be cellular, radio, > satellite, wireless LAN, or a government, academic or > hotel/airport network > providing temporary connectivity, I can't say that with confidence. > > > password sniffing only becomes a concern when you have road > > warriors who are NOT connecting into the mailserver via a VPN > > Again true - but now you're talking about another method of protecting > passwords, and another technology to master.

In your case you have a lot of them, coming from a lot of weird places - so what your doing with SSL is the obvious choice - at first glance. But, keep in mind you have no real mail security in your setup. Your corporate jewels are not the passwords, or even the data on the mailserver - as since your running POP, the data on the mailserver is transient. Your real corporate jewels are the information assets contained in the hundreds if not thousands of saved e-mails in the countless folders that your road warriors have created over the years. And that data is hanging out there in space like a ripe plum for anyone to pick. Your road warriors have ample time to access that information and cooorelate it how they want. You have a sales rep. leave - he takes his last 4 years of contacts with him as all he needs to do is make a copy of his mailbox.pst file and take it with him when he leaves. And not just contacts - all the sales history of those contacts. All tied up in a nice, searchable package in that .pst file. And, how about the day when your road warrior's laptop get stolen? He's saved his e-mail login ID and password in his mail client - no need for sniffing there. Now anyway, none of this may apply to a NGO but I think you get the idea. It would apply to most corporations. > [certificate authority not hard] > > > > I didn't say doing that was hard.

Once more, quotes straight out of the MS salesbook. It's a lot cheaper to simply pay for what your using. Year 1 you have 5 PC's you pay for 5 copies of Office 98. Year 2 you have 5 more PC's you pay for 5 copies of Office 2000. You DON'T pay for 10 copies of Office 2000 then downgrade half of them. And so on until you start scrapping systems. As for support costs - your going to have support costs either way, and a lot of it depends on what the employees are doing. In most companies the majority of employees are NOT sitting in cubiciles shuffling paper around. They are actually out there doing work - talking to people, operating machinery, making things, fixing things, building stuff, yadda yadda yadda. Consider Intel Corp.'s payroll - they don't outsource their chip manufacturing, at least, not the stuff that makes them real money. If their payroll was mostly suits in cubiciles they wouldn't be making any products at all and what would be paying those salaries? Sure - there's so-called "new economy, information only" companies out there where everyone is shuffling paper on a computer screen. I can think of a few - law firms, CPA's etc. But not the majority of companies. In fact, there's a huge movement these days to -take away- the general purpose PC from a lot of employees and replace it with windows terminals, and suchlike. Companies have many employees out there who they do not want wasting time downloading the latest .mp3 or surfing the web - they want them inputting data into the customer service database, or shipping paper, or whatever the company does to make money. They are running apps that do not change from year to year and the machinery they are running these apps on does not need to change every year - just because MS comes out with some new operating system and wants to make some money. I've been in this arena since 1990 and I have watched as the computer has come into businesses - and the height of the "slap a PC and an Office Suite on their desk" was sometime in year 2002. Since then a larger and larger number of companies are looking seriously at their office productivity and finding out that the new version of MS Office don't grind out the sales quotes any faster than the old did, or the cad drawings, or the whatever. And that's just general purpose office cube farmers. The factory floor people got their PC's taken away years ago, and replaced with toasters that may look like PC's but do only 1 thing. The hottest software markets today are things where they are coming out with narrow-market software that addresses specific needs, for specific industries. You can't name a single industry anymore that doesen't have a couple of ISVs in it that make turnkey systems that lock the entire workflow down. The single largest penetration of Windows Vista today is among the home users, I kid you not. That will certainly change eventually, but so far your just not reading those countless testimonials of large wholesale rollouts of Vista among the Fortune 500 like you used to read years ago in the trade rags when XP came out. > > For older Outlook versions, you can't just do 6 clicks and install > > it.

There's just too many bodies and systems. It is like painting the Golden Gate Bridge - you start at one side and by the time you get to the end of it, it's time to start at the beginning again.

And I will tell you that in running it for the last 2 years I have proof positive that it works, why? Because the spammers are adapting to it. Each month it's less and less effective - just as each month the other filters are less and less effective. As for obstacles, its no worse than any of the other filters.

Recompiling PHP will make it link against the later shlib. In fact, you should run this: portupgrade -fr mysql-client (or the equivalent in whatever ports management package you prefer) Thus will force a recompile of everything that depends on mysql-client, so that they all pick up the change in shlib version number. Hmmm... I guess you aren't a portupgrade(1) user, because if you were, there would still be a copy of libmysqlclient.so.15 preserved in /usr/local/lib/compat/pkg/ and the mysql dependent applications would still be running against that. Although you should still do the forced upgrade shown above: portupgrade's behaviour of saving old shared libraries is meant to provide a temporary band-aid towards keeping everything running as far as possible while performing system updates.

If that fails i.e. if you get the message BLOCK DEVICE RECUIRED you should try to use gphoto2. This is step by step for my Sony Cyber-Shot W70 1. Change into PTP mode on camera 2. Go to su mode (this can be avoided but I left it so that my wife cannot mess with it) 3. gphoto2 --auto-detect will list your camera as Sony DSC-F707V (PTP mode) usb: 4. gphoto2 --help to get various commands 5 gphoto2 --L will list all the files in numerical order 6 gphoto2 --get-file=NUMBER Range (will get you files in that range) 7 WARNING you may need to issue the commands some time multiple times because they fail. The following message is not uncommon *** Error *** Note you might not need to go to PTP mode for your particular camera! If that fail then you can use cheap card reader which are well detected by FreeBSD.

From what I've read OSX is a great development system. I have FreeBSD and Ubuntu feisty 64 bits installed on my laptop. My conclusion is that Ubuntu requires ways less tinkering and works very well. As to using a mac, i don't see at present a reason to do that. I don't see a single thing that Mac OS does that FreeBSD with KDE desn't do much better. I don't need a laptop which overheats, has a one button mouse and other oddities. I don't want to learn still another system which doesn't have a single strong point. To come back to Ubuntu, it has at least two fetaures that FreeBSD doesn't: - suspend-resume works, which is immensely useful for a laptop - it has a package management sytem which works, using *binary* packages. No, portupgrade is not in the same categaory by any stretch of the imagination, and i have no business spending hours compiling stuff. Incidentally, Ubuntu also has working support for Intel wifi, the Syskonnect ethernet card and the Intel video card, where FreeBSD has experimental drivers such that the ethernet loses as many packets as it transmits (myk driver) and X locks up at least once a day. It is not very difficult to understand why Ubuntu is massively gaining users, while FreeBSD doesn't, and is now ranked position 22 on Distrowatch. -- Michel TALON From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Sep 6 08:55:43 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D7EDB16A418 for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 08:55:43 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from freebsd@elgert.dk) Received: from pqueueb.post.tele.dk (pqueueb.post.tele.dk [193.162.153.10]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9CE8813C48A for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 08:55:43 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from freebsd@elgert.dk) Received: from pfepa.post.tele.dk (pfepa.post.tele.dk [195.41.46.235]) by pqueueb.post.tele.dk (Postfix) with ESMTP id 88EEC8870 for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 10:37:42 +0200 (CEST) Received: from elgert.dk (0x573c4c6f.nivaanqu1.broadband.tele.dk [87.60.76.111]) by pfepa.post.tele.dk (Postfix) with SMTP id 607C3FAC002 for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 10:37:32 +0200 (CEST) Received: by elgert.dk (sSMTP sendmail emulation); Thu, 6 Sep 2007 10:37:31 +0200 Date: Thu, 6 Sep 2007 10:37:31 +0200 From: Harry Jensen To: questions@freebsd.org Message-ID: <20070906083731.GA3413@mugin.localhost> Mail-Followup-To: questions@freebsd.org References: <6e4453640709052135k61dc4097nb79c03e4672e5489@mail.gmail.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <6e4453640709052135k61dc4097nb79c03e4672e5489@mail.gmail.com> User-Agent: Mutt/1.4.2.3i Cc: Subject: Re: Canon A620, FreeBSD and gphoto2 X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 06 Sep 2007 08:55:43 -0000 On Wed, Sep 05, 2007 at 09:35:49PM -0700, Erin McNew wrote: > *** Error *** > An error occurred in the io-library ('I/O problem'): Failed to open > '/dev/ugen0' (m). > *** Error (-7: 'I/O problem') *** I have a Nikon Coolpix 4500, and found following through Google: ------ To have the rights to download files from a digital camera, add following to the "/etc/devfs.rules": [usb_devices=10] add path 'ugen*' mode 0660 group operator add path 'da*s*' mode 0660 group operator ..and restart "/etc/rc.d/devfs restart" ..add yourself to the "operator" group. ------ For me it just worked then.

Add together FreeBSD, PC-BSD and DesktopBSD - FreeBSD will then be at position 9. I am sure Ubuntu is a good system in many ways. But FreeBSD's position on DistroWatch is very impressive for a system that is not Linux, is not actively promoted, does not even attempt to be user-friendly ... and whose name does not mean a thing in any African language. -- Tore From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Sep 6 09:46:11 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8F80816A41A for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 09:46:11 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from kenneth@aspit.no) Received: from ex.aspit.no (81-31-235-95.net.nc-systems.no [81.31.235.95]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 212D313C46B for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 09:46:10 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from kenneth@aspit.no) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable x-cr-puzzleid: {498953E9-1E54-446D-89E1-F6FBC260DE14} X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft Exchange V6.5 Content-class: urn:content-classes:message x-cr-hashedpuzzle: ADCL A8A5 BM5b B6X1 Cex6 CxQD Dj45 Dzuj D3MK Ef9k IJVp JZaO Lcx5 LiLt Lwnw MVIR; 1; ZgByAGUAZQBiAHMAZAAtAHEAdQBlAHMAdABpAG8AbgBzAEAAZgByAGUAZQBiAHMAZAAuAG8AcgBnAA==; Sosha1_v1; 7; {498953E9-1E54-446D-89E1-F6FBC260DE14}; awBlAG4AbgBlAHQAaABAAGEAcwBwAGkAdAAuAG4AbwA=; Thu, 06 Sep 2007 09:33:28 GMT; cAB4AGUAIABpAG4AcwB0AGEAbABsACAAdwBpAHQAaAAgAGMAdQBzAHQAbwBtACAAawBlAHIAbgBlAGwA Date: Thu, 6 Sep 2007 11:33:28 +0200 Message-ID: <5581EE812CBAEF41B5A44E9667A40DD610780C@arnold.aspit.local> X-MS-Has-Attach: X-MS-TNEF-Correlator: Thread-Topic: pxe install with custom kernel Thread-Index: AcfwaPtaEePSsP4zTkmjUnjXWgkdnw== From: "Kenneth Grande" To: Subject: pxe install with custom kernel X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 06 Sep 2007 09:46:11 -0000 i am installing clients with a PXE setup.

I would like to install clients in the same way, it makes it very easy to make changes. The problem is that if do this i have to recompile the kernel on every system installed, and this is very time consuming. Since the hardware i am using is the same on all clients (ca 40 barebone computers), i was wondering if i perhaps can recompile one kernel, and use it during the pxe install. Is this possible, or does anyone else have a good idea on what i should do?

An what will this plugin do? Decompress ape files on the fly, right? If I didn't write previous post clearly: Audio CD standard (Redd Book) requires certain data format on disc, which ape file is not. Thus, you can't write ape files on Audio CD. You can, however, use software which converts ape files into correct format in an invisible way to you. Do we agree? :) Cheers, Karol --=20 Karol Kwiatkowski OpenPGP 0x06E09309 --------------enig8B9FFD9514F69CA4A51C3BE7 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (FreeBSD) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iQEVAwUBRt/n0ghgT0HIecD5AQjmPwf+OUjM5jGBQJbZkdPiU/3YEynx+x1Xr0J0 NiI4ZACR1BB6GE2JQh36cvM00Fe0AHUymqVkv5jgtpr+nyGyYXBEOhI3s9sd3B5Q 8tAda87pW9Z10IbSA9E1YPOXnJo03SYG1iFlxiD2Te/L4//+56enZDKZFz4pb1RB iNRyhDdekhHJYILgCHoC3sYI9bRgEMBSaRB/SKf37h3BLuVNX03WNxNB2xS/pXej Yaiq33dz9QoBFNkDsvLtx3FmAkJA6Sozirw+n7svdURcA75S5ae70j+LXtCRci8r ToNYKq9lHTfoaWLiUwB0hpaqMXjF70jop4pXKDg1mJG7pmbThLJ2wQ== =KGBZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig8B9FFD9514F69CA4A51C3BE7-- From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Sep 6 11:54:50 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EE4D116A41A for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 11:54:50 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from mario.lobo@ipad.com.br) Received: from recife.ipad.com.br (recife.ipadnet.com.br [200.249.204.129]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6209713C4B4 for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 11:54:50 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from mario.lobo@ipad.com.br) Received: from lobo.ipad.com.br ([192.168.64.1]) (authenticated bits=0) by recife.ipad.com.br (8.12.8/8.12.8) with ESMTP id l86BsVu9025120 for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 08:54:32 -0300 From: Mario Lobo Organization: IPAD To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Thu, 6 Sep 2007 11:54:30 +0000 User-Agent: KMail/1.9.7 References: <200709061055.53315.mario.lobo@ipad.com.br> <46DFE7CC.9060702@gmail.com> In-Reply-To: <46DFE7CC.9060702@gmail.com> X-Face: "j9,S@~?m[/.]/lb=?utf-8?q?S=5D=2EI=0A=09ITlWP=3A-?=" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Message-Id: <200709061154.30882.mario.lobo@ipad.com.br> Subject: Re: Burn ape music to CD X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 06 Sep 2007 11:54:51 -0000 On Thursday 06 September 2007, Karol Kwiatkowski wrote: > Mario Lobo wrote: > > On Thursday 06 September 2007, Karol Kwiatkowski wrote: > >> Tsu-Fan Cheng wrote: > >>> Hi, > >>> I have some ape music files ready to burn to CD, I first comvert them > >>> into wav file then use cdrecord, but I heard that this is not > >>> necessary, ape file can burn to CD directly, how is this achieved??

I just wanted to say hi to all of you. My name is Gabriel, and I have just been setting up a FreeBSD server at work, having moved from Linux. There are just a couple of things that aren't working quite as I would like, and I was hoping someone might be kind enough to help me out. I've been using the FreeBSD handbook, and I must say it is quite superb, and makes starting with FreeBSD much easier. Using sysinstall I enabled anonymous FTP, with uploads allowed in the folder /incoming. Uploading works a treat, however the files don't have permissions to be downloaded again (by anon user). I know I could change this by executing a cron job every two minutes that would chmod the files in /incoming. But surely there must be a far better way...? The FreeBSD handbook says it doesn't recommend allowing anon users to d/load files uploaded anonymously, however I would still like to implement this. I'd be very appreciative for any help.

Very likely no one else considers themselves offended. Very likely that is because it was obvious to everyone else that no offense was ever intended. Very likely because everyone else also assumed that the idea of permitting non-nuclear states to buy nuclear warheads was universally regarded as a bad idea, and thus grasped the mailserver comparison instantly. Very likely because nobody understands what the problem is in the first place. That would include me, by the way.

Hi, Have you seen the manual for ftpd(8)? It's available at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=3Dftpd You can change the flags passed to ftpd in your inetd.conf (if you=20 enabled ftpd this way) or in rc.conf (which is another, but different=20 way to do it).

I can't think of a way to be automatically notified, so you would need to check the file periodically. cron is a good way if you're not checking too often; otherwise you're better off with a daemon (a looping script, even).

The idea here is to stop your FTP server being used as a warez site. So the script kiddies cannot upload their cracked software and dubious copies of this that and the other and then send all their little friends along to download that stuff from you. Leave a mis-configured FTP server on the net and it will be discovered and used for this purpose within a week or so. The best approaches are these: i) Don't use FTP at all. FTP is an archaic protocol, hard to firewall correctly and that sends passwords across the net in plain text. The secure version 'FTPS' is not supported by the ftpd in the base system. Instead consider such things as SFTP (which is an SSH client which behaves like FTP), WebDAV over HTTPS (HTTP PUT) or a form based upload CGI script (HTTP POST), rsync over SSH. etc. ii) If you have to use FTP, then create individual user FTP accounts so you have some accountability as to who is doing what. Run the FTP service in a chroot or jail and make sure the FTP password file is distinct from the normal password file. iii) If you have to provide incoming anonymous FTP then don't automatically make any uploaded files available for download.

I haven't seen enough production FreeBSD systems set up by others to have any impressions about whether Linux admins are more likely to use Qmail than FreeBSD admins. I do get the impression, however, that the Linux admins who choose Qmail tend to do so for much the same reason that MS Windows admins choose Exchange: they think it's easier, that setting it up is just a plug-and-play, point-and-click sort of exercise. The fact that it's sending and receiving emails within a couple hours (starting from a clean box) seems to be the sum total of their metric for ease of setup, and all the hassle and annoyance that follows doesn't even enter into it. Just as MS Exchange basically requires its own admin, but nobody cares for purposes of judging how "easy" it is as long as the thing is minimally running within a couple hours, Qmail is an invitation for disaster -- but nobody cares as long as they can judge it by its security and stability statistics in a default (if essentially useless) configuration, and as long as they can configure it via some kind of point-and-click web interface. That's my experience, anyway. If Qmail is more common among Linux admins, I tend to guess Webmin probably is as well. -- CCD CopyWrite Chad Perrin [ http://ccd.apotheon.org ] McCloctnick the Lucid: "The first rule of magic is simple.

I did try mounting the camera, but since I had to use gphoto2 in linux, I figured I'd probably need to do so in freebsd as well. It gave me the message saying it required a block device. I do not quite know what you mean about switching my camera to PTP mode. I did not need to do anything special under Linux, but I will google a bit to see what I can figure out related to that. I will look into your suggestions a bit more closely tonight when I get back home. If I'm understanding your explanation correctly, the fact that my camera is showing up as ugen0 instead of usb0 is not a problem, correct?

What they are trying to do is reduce the chance that a SM will create a system where anyone in the world can upload stuff and then, without any checking of the stuff, anyone in the world can download it. Eg. They are trying to force you to at least notice the file before making it available for download. This is to reduce the incidence of evil minded creatures using your machine for their despicable plots of distributing dangerous files and software around the net. So, what you are supposed to do is make two separate directories - one for upload and one for download. Then you check each uploaded file for mal-ware before moving it to the download space with the needed permissions. You can use the same directory, but do not leave out the step of checking the file content before setting permissions to allow download. But, it is better to use separate directories so people doing a download don't have to wade through the swamp of uploaded, and not approved/checked stuff. Of course, some people will point out that FTP is on the outs now anyway and will recommend other ways of doing things. Pay attention to that. But, sometimes FTP still fills a need. ////jerry > > I'd be very appreciative for any help. > > Best regards > > Gabriel Dragffy > > gabe@dragffy.com > > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Sep 6 15:13:43 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D8D1D16A420 for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 15:13:43 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from derek@computinginnovations.com) Received: from betty.computinginnovations.com (mail.computinginnovations.com [64.81.227.250]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 76EEF13C474 for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 15:13:43 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from derek@computinginnovations.com) Received: from p28.computinginnovations.com (dhcp-10-20-30-100.computinginnovations.com [10.20.30.100]) (authenticated bits=0) by betty.computinginnovations.com (8.13.8/8.12.11) with ESMTP id l86FDPfi020963; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 10:13:26 -0500 (CDT) Message-Id: <6.0.0.22.2.20070906101228.026cb0e8@mail.computinginnovations.com> X-Sender: derek@mail.computinginnovations.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 6.0.0.22 Date: Thu, 06 Sep 2007 10:13:03 -0500 To: Albert.Shih@obspm.fr, freebsd-questions@freebsd.org From: Derek Ragona In-Reply-To: <20070906150602.GE61602@pcjas.obspm.fr> References: <20070906150602.GE61602@pcjas.obspm.fr> Mime-Version: 1.0 X-ComputingInnovations-MailScanner-Information: Please contact the ISP for more information X-ComputingInnovations-MailScanner: Found to be clean X-ComputingInnovations-MailScanner-From: derek@computinginnovations.com X-Spam-Status: No Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.5 Cc: Subject: Re: bash on login.

Because .bashrc is not loaded by login shells. Read the manpage of bash(1) for more details, and make sure you pay A LOT of attention to the ``INVOCATION'' section: When bash is invoked as an interactive login shell, or as a non-interactive shell with the --login option, it first reads and executes commands from the file /etc/profile, if that file exists. After reading that file, it looks for ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, and ~/.profile, in that order, and reads and executes commands from the first one that exists and is readable. The --noprofile option may be used when the shell is started to inhibit this behavior. When a login shell exits, bash reads and executes commands from the file ~/.bash_logout, if it exists. When an interactive shell that is not a login shell is started, bash reads and executes commands from ~/.bashrc, if that file exists. This may be inhibited by using the --norc option. The --rcfile file option will force bash to read and execute commands from file instead of ~/.bashrc. > But if in the bash session I type «bash» this time the .bashrc is use. Yes. This is no longer a login shell. It's merely an interactive shell, so bash ignores .bash_profile and reads .bashrc instead. > How can I make the .bashrc file is read when I connect by ssh ? My preferred setup uses both files. The .bash_profile file acts solely as a 'delegation script', which loads all my preferences from .bashrc. The full contents of my .bashrcc file are something like this: test -f ~/.bashrc && . ~/.bashrc true All my preferences, options, environment variables, and other bash configuration is stored in ~/.bashrc. This way both login shells and interactive shells use precisely the same environment. - Giorgos From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Sep 6 15:32:01 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A7D0916A513 for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 15:32:01 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from b.movaqar@adempiere.org) Received: from kedah.mschosting.com (kedah.mschosting.com [202.75.42.90]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6353713C45D for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 15:32:01 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from b.movaqar@adempiere.org) Received: from [87.107.63.161] (port=61296) by kedah.mschosting.com with esmtpsa (TLSv1:AES256-SHA:256) (Exim 4.66) (envelope-from ) id 1ITJKn-0006BL-5o; Thu, 06 Sep 2007 23:31:57 +0800 Message-ID: <46E01E63.9000205@adempiere.org> Date: Thu, 06 Sep 2007 19:06:03 +0330 From: "Bahman M."

About five or seven years ago when sendmail was having a lot of security problems and people were looking for alternatives, qmail was reasonably well established and was widely recommended. So a lot of people switched to it (including the place where I now work), including several Linux distros. We were never very happy with it here, and I suspect that the reason it has such a following in the Linux world is either that they have never used an alternative (same reason Windows has so many fans), or to abandon it and move to something else would cause a sort of cognitive dissonance that prevents it from happening. > > I haven't seen enough production FreeBSD systems set up by others to have > any impressions about whether Linux admins are more likely to use Qmail > than FreeBSD admins.

For those people I recommend Courier. It was designed to be a drop-in replacement for Qmail, but without most of the flaws. The configuration files, for instance, are mostly the same. The biggest problem I've had when configuring Courier is that it tends to be overly determined to enforce RFC compliance and thus will not be friendly toward a lot of mail from various MS products. Find the configuration flag that turns off that behavior or users will complain about the results. The author makes a reasonable case for the default behavior (to do otherwise forces Courier to be non-compliant itself), but in the real world you have to be able to accept mail from MS products. I have used Courier at my previous job (about 200 users) and at home and I have no significant complaints. If you just need a basic server that will handle your personal email without requiring you to learn what amounts to a new programming language (as with Exim and a few others), it's a good choice. The full distribution includes a POP/IMAP server and a webmail system. Just be sure not to skip the README file, and follow the instructions for testing your installation step-by-step. I have NOT tried to set up intensive anti-spam measures on Courier, so I don't know what problems may be in store there, but I'm sure there is info at http://www.courier-mta.org I'm not really as evangelistic for Courier as I sound. As long as you stay away from Qmail you will probably be happy with whatever you use. I do recommend that you use something that supports Maildir style mailboxes, though. - Bob From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Sep 6 15:52:54 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 944CD16A419 for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 15:52:54 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from mak_kolybabi@umanitoba.ca) Received: from electra.cc.umanitoba.ca (electra.cc.umanitoba.ca [130.179.16.23]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6342413C491 for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 15:52:54 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from mak_kolybabi@umanitoba.ca) Received: from brisbane.nepharia.org (wnpgmb02dc1-60-120.dynamic.mts.net [207.161.60.120]) (authenticated bits=0) by electra.cc.umanitoba.ca (8.13.0/8.13.0) with ESMTP id l86FqhV8013216 (version=TLSv1/SSLv3 cipher=EDH-RSA-DES-CBC3-SHA bits=168 verify=NO); Thu, 6 Sep 2007 10:52:44 -0500 (CDT) Received: by brisbane.nepharia.org (nbSMTP-1.00) for uid 1000 (using TLSv1/SSLv3 with cipher EDH-RSA-DES-CBC3-SHA (168/168 bits)) mak_kolybabi@umanitoba.ca; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 10:52:48 -0500 (CDT) Date: Thu, 6 Sep 2007 10:52:42 -0500 From: Mak Kolybabi To: Pollywog Message-ID: <20070906155242.GA16749@brisbane> References: <46DFC33A.3090903@gmail.com> <200709061535.49148.lists-fbsd@shadypond.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <200709061535.49148.lists-fbsd@shadypond.com> User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.16 (2007-06-09) Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Burn ape music to CD X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 06 Sep 2007 15:52:54 -0000 On 2007-09-06 15:35, Pollywog wrote: > What is "ape music"?

I am switching ISPs from a cable-based provider to a DSL-based provider and would like to install FreeBSD on an old PC to set it up as a router/firewall for my home network. And since this old PC does not have a CD-ROM drive I'd like to a network install using PPPoE. But I haven't been able to find any current information on how to accomplish this. There used to be an (unofficial) page by Randy Pratt: "Installing FreeBSD Using PPPoE": but it's no longer there. Any help/advice is appreciated. Thanks!

However one day I decided to see what all the hoopla over qmail was about. So I went into the ports and ran make. Much to my suprise, qmail installed 6 separate accounts in the pasword file. This was just with a make and NOT make install. That at the very least is very rude behaviour. And another problem with qmail from what I've read is that if you send mail to several people on the same server, instead of doing what all other MTA's do - and send ONE mail with all addresses, qmail will generate a separate email for each user - putting un-needed loads on your server and the recipients machine. And the last time the qmail tar file that you get when you run make has been changed was March 4, 2001. Anyone who even thinks that a piece of software that it 6 years old has no flaws had best re-think this. The last patches were in 2003. ISTR that I heard DJB speak at a Usenix conference many years ago and I was less than impressed with his "I'm better than any of you" attitude. Many seem to share that feeling - so consider me prejudiced.

Yours is not one of those so be it. No we are going to use gPhoto2. If you play (ON THE MENU OF CAMERA) with the options on YOUR CAMERA in particular options for USB connector you will see that the following options likely will be displayed Pict Bridge PTP Mass Storage Auto By default the camera is in Auto mode which is good enough for Windozzz but FreeBSD might want you to put camera in PTP mode usually used when camera is directly connected to PRINTER via USB. Then just follow the steps I gave you. I am 99% sure that your camera DOES work with FreeBSD. Predrag Erin McNew wrote: > Thank you for the suggestions.

Don't wonder if qmail has flaws, go to CERT.org and search first for Sendmail, then Postfix, then Exim, then qmail. To say "Anyone who even thinks that a piece of software that it 6 years old has no flaws had best re-think this.", is simply FUD. > > ISTR that I heard DJB speak at a Usenix conference many years ago > and I was less than impressed with his "I'm better than any of > you" attitude. > > Many seem to share that feeling - so consider me prejudiced. We have run qmail for several years on FreeBSD quite well with few problems, none of which where related to the software, it's design, it's configuration, always it was Clam or SpamAssassin binding things up. It is stable, fast, secure, and provides abilities other MTAs do not. It is our first choice for a toaster or a mail list server. We use Sendmail on our gateways for it's excellent milter support and versatile configuration. It has more knobs than a recording studio. If we had a client with just a few domains and the need for their own MTA, we would install Postfix for it's ease of use. It's rock solid and easy to remember when you come back to it six months later.

Why do they choose to do logos for other non-international holidays, but nothing for Veterans? Maybe they forgot who made that choice possible.

For a 4.x to 6.x upgrade, your most effective route is generally to backup your important files and data, and then nuke and repave your server -- ie. just do a clean install of 6.2 overwriting the old system -- then use csup(1)[*] to grab the latest RELENG_6 source and buildworld in the usual way. Given the price of hard drives nowadays, you could just buy yourself a new one and install 6.2 on that -- gives you an easy back-out route to 4.11 if it all goes horribly wrong...

Going from 4.x to 6.x, you are probably much better off doing a clean install. Change the HDs from ufs to ufs2. Without the clean install, you have too much crufty stuff left behind, such as the thread change. In addition, there was a massive change at 5.1 +/- that building and installing in the wrong order would leave your system unusable. I think you could recover with the fixit disk but doing a clean install bypasses all of the problems :). I don't think going to 6.x is supported, so, going to 5-stable and then 6-stable will take a lot of time. Even a 6.2-release CD has the old version of xorg on it and rebuilding everything to 7.2 is a massive enterprise. Install 6.2 and get all of the packages from freebsd.org.

Running FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p4 SMP i386. I installed nvidia-driver-100.14.11 from ports (Sep. 5 snapshot), Linux compatibility enabled. After loading modules 'linux' and 'nvidia', I do: # X -configure # X -config /root/xorg.conf.new At this point the system spontaneously reboots. 'X -configure' runs fine and produces a configuration without issue, but the reboot occcurs when launching X. Nothing is output to screen (it flickers as if starting X), and nothing is written to /var/log/Xorg.0.log. I do get the same behavior if running 'xorgcfg'. Card info: "NV41 [Quadro FX 3450/4000 SDI] rev 162" nvidia0@pci7:0:0: class=0x030000 card=0x029b10de chip=0x00cd10de rev=0xa2 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'NVIDIA Corporation' class = display subclass = VGA I've tried an alternate version of the binary driver (nvidia-driver-96xx) to see if there was any change, and it also reboots on X startup. sysctl.conf, dmesg, and Xorg configuration included below. sysctl.conf: # Recommended settings from xine package: kern.ipc.shmmax=67108864 kern.ipc.shmall=32768 # Local settings vfs.usermount=1 /var/run/dmesg.boot Copyright (c) 1992-2007 The FreeBSD Project.

OK, I just installed it, pkg-message said: NOTE: A set of sample configuration files have been installed: /usr/local/etc/smokeping/config /usr/local/etc/smokeping/smokemail /usr/local/etc/smokeping/basepage.html /usr/local/etc/smokeping/tmail You *MUST* edit these to suit your requirements. Please read the manpages 'smokeping_install' and 'smokeping_config' for further details on installation and configuration. Looking at that by man smokeping_install it looks very detailed, but if you've never set up anything with apache can be quite hard. A quick glance tells me that the port took care of most of the installation already. The only thing that's left is configuration of above mentioned files, which only you can do. To get it working fast: in /usr/local/etc/smokeping/config, change line: cgiurl = http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/smokeping/smokeping.cgi to: cgiurl = http://your.web.server/cgi/smokeping.cgi Then edit /usr/local/etc/apache/httpd.conf: Add the following line: ScriptAlias /cgi/smokeping.cgi /usr/local/smokeping/htdocs/smokeping.cgi (There's another ScriptAlias line in the default httpd.conf, so you can put this line right below or above that). Now things *should* work. If not, read the manpage smokeping_config carefully or report any errors you get to the list. -- Mel From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Sep 6 20:52:31 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3DB7D16A417 for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 20:52:31 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from sellis@telus.net) Received: from mx01.telus.net (mx01.telus.net [204.209.205.52]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 01B5213C459 for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 20:52:30 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from sellis@telus.net) Received: from priv-edmwaa06.telusplanet.net ([154.20.93.49]) by priv-edmwes24.telusplanet.net (InterMail vM.7.08.02.00 201-2186-121-20061213) with ESMTP id <20070906205230.SQCC5529.priv-edmwes24.telusplanet.net@priv-edmwaa06.telusplanet.net>; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 14:52:30 -0600 Received: from d154-20-93-49.bchsia.telus.net (d154-20-93-49.bchsia.telus.net [154.20.93.49]) by priv-edmwaa06.telusplanet.net (BorderWare MXtreme Infinity Mail Firewall) with ESMTP id 2FF0J2CHP9; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 14:52:27 -0600 (MDT) Received: from telus.net (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by d154-20-93-49.bchsia.telus.net (8.13.3/8.13.3) with ESMTP id l86KqB2q031380; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 13:52:11 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sellis@telus.net) Received: (from sellis@localhost) by telus.net (8.13.3/8.13.3/Submit) id l86Kpt2e031379; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 13:51:55 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sellis@telus.net) Date: Thu, 6 Sep 2007 13:51:55 -0700 From: Sean Ellis To: Matthew Seaman Message-ID: <20070906205155.GF78764@telus.net> Mail-Followup-To: Matthew Seaman , freebsd-questions@freebsd.org, kstewart@owt.com, punosevac@math.arizona.edu References: <20070906174826.GE78764@telus.net> <46E05293.6040303@infracaninophile.co.uk> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <46E05293.6040303@infracaninophile.co.uk> User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.11 Cc: punosevac@math.arizona.edu, freebsd-questions@freebsd.org, kstewart@owt.com Subject: Re: can't `make index` on 4.11-STABLE X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list Reply-To: sellis@telus.net List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 06 Sep 2007 20:52:31 -0000 On Thu, Sep 06, 2007 at 08:18:43PM +0100, Matthew Seaman wrote: > > Sean Ellis wrote: > > > I have a problem trying to `make index` on a machine running 4.11-STABLE > > after cvsup-ing the ports tree. > > 4.x has been dropped from support by the ports tree.

No, nothing gets to the log before reboot occurs. Not using either of nvAgp or FreeBSD Agp, that I'm aware of. I did not enable FREEBSD_AGP at build time.

Cause I checked 3 working nvidia xorg configs for 3 different cards and none of them has Section Display in them, let alone 20 of them :p > > And anything /var/log/Xorg.0.log?

Run nvidia-xconfig, it'll generate a much cleaner xorg.conf file, enable nvAgp and load a few less extensions. If that one works, you can start diffing and adding things again to figure out the cause (if you're interested :p). Also check /boot/device.hints and disable Agp there. A GeForce 6200 for instance, insists on it, while other cards don't, but I never had one reboot the machine. I just get: agp0: mem 0xf8000000-0xfbffffff at device 0.0 on pci0 NVRM: detected agp.ko, aborting NVIDIA AGP setup! echo 'hint.agp.0.disabled="1"' >>/boot/device.hints should do it. -- Mel From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Sep 6 23:15:24 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 277E716A419 for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 23:15:24 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from punosevac@math.arizona.edu) Received: from smtp102.math.arizona.edu (smtp102.math.arizona.edu [128.196.102.202]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0C4DA13C46C for ; Thu, 6 Sep 2007 23:15:24 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from punosevac@math.arizona.edu) Received: from Debian-exim by smtp102.math.arizona.edu with local-bsmtp (Exim 4.50) id 1ITQZE-0004zn-0m for questions@freebsd.org; Thu, 06 Sep 2007 16:15:20 -0700 Received: from 71-220-146-155.tcsn.qwest.net ([71.220.146.155] helo=.domain.actdsltmp) by smtp102.math.arizona.edu with esmtpsa (TLS-1.0:DHE_RSA_AES_256_CBC_SHA:32) (Exim 4.50) id 1ITQZD-0004zY-Rw for questions@freebsd.org; Thu, 06 Sep 2007 16:15:19 -0700 Message-ID: <46E08A05.6020904@math.arizona.edu> Date: Thu, 06 Sep 2007 16:15:17 -0700 From: Predrag Punosevac User-Agent: Thunderbird 2.0.0.4 (X11/20070713) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@freebsd.org References: <46E0596D.8060404@math.arizona.edu> <200709062202.06249.fbsd.questions@rachie.is-a-geek.net> <46E06B70.1050801@math.arizona.edu> <200709062323.16972.fbsd.questions@rachie.is-a-geek.net> In-Reply-To: <200709062323.16972.fbsd.questions@rachie.is-a-geek.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-ACL-Warn: The HELO/EHLO greeting .domain.actdsltmp is invalid X-Outgoing-Spam-Score: -5.9 (-----) Cc: Subject: Re: FreeMAT compiled :-) X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 06 Sep 2007 23:15:24 -0000 It is my great pleasure to report that I have FreeMat on my system Mel Thanks a lot body!

Did you reinstall/upgrade X after having installed nvidia-driver? X actually overwrites libraries that nvidia-driver installs so you have to reinstall nvidia-driver every time you upgrade X. I remember having had some bad crashes some time ago because X overwrote nvidia GLX libraries.

Even generic programs like SciLab of FreeMat can do it let alone graphics software. My guess is that you would have to do the port by yourself. I am not saying I would not like to be in the ports, all I am saying is that if I do port my first priority would be powerdot class (replacing obsolete class prosper and far superior to bemmer in performance and in particularly in simplicity of use) of presentations for Latex which is unfortunately not in the port tree.

In a somewhat recently updated RELENG_6 FreeBSD, whenever I run the program /usr/bin/passwd to change an users password, it encrypts the password using DES. I have already configured /etc/login.conf for MD5, but it still goes with DES: *$ grep passwd /etc/login.conf :passwd_format=md5:\ # :passwd_format=des:\ $* What could I be doing wrong? If that matters, this system has been receiving system and /etc upgrades since Sep/2003. Maybe some old configuration has been left around...

Sorry for my english. Uhhh... it's a long time since I've used CGI.pm. But if I remember correctly, the DTD was hard-coded in CGI.pm itself, and output by start_html(); but you could override it with a value of your own. =46rom /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/CGI.pm: --------------------------------------- use constant XHTML_DTD =3D> ['-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN', 'http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd']; ...
