Somebody should have mentioned this by now: http://ezine.daemonnews.org/200308/courier-imap.html I don't fully understand it but found instructions somewhere in the courier-imap package to add this line to /etc/rc.conf: courier_imap_imapd_enable=YES In short I did and it does.

Where can I go to find upstream newsfeeds? I'm working on setting up a local news server and I want to obtain a few specific blocks of newsgroups for local users. I don't know what they're going to want to access at this point, but I think you get the idea. Thanks. _______________________________________________________ Eric F Crist "I am so smart, S.M.R.T!"

The basic problem is that upon reboot, two of my vinum drives show up as "referenced" and thus create the associated chaos. I've tried many things and fiddled around quite a bit so I can't say exactly what I've done. I can include all of the entries in the history file since Oct. 31 if that's a help but it would be a long list. So prior to digging that deep, I will describe where I stand currently and where I want to finish. Currently, I have one vinum volume that I use for /usr. Fortunately this volume is up and running or I would really be in a mess. Here's the 'vinum list' output in this state: blacklamb# vinum vinum -> list 2 drives: D disk1 State: up Device /dev/da0s1h Avail: 0/8383 MB (0%) D disk2 State: up Device /dev/da1s1h Avail: 0/8383 MB (0%) 1 volumes: V usr State: up Plexes: 1 Size: 16 GB 1 plexes: P usr.p0 S State: up Subdisks: 2 Size: 16 GB 2 subdisks: S usr.p0.s0 State: up PO: 0 B Size: 8383 MB S usr.p0.s1 State: up PO: 256 kB Size: 8383 MB I want to add another volume and mount it on /ftp. After creating the volume, vinum sees it and it appears OK as indicated in this output: vinum -> list 5 drives: D disk1 State: up Device /dev/da0s1h Avail: 0/8383 MB (0%) D disk2 State: up Device /dev/da1s1h Avail: 0/8383 MB (0%) D ftp1 State: up Device /dev/ad0s1h Avail: 0/76319 MB (0%) D ftp2 State: up Device /dev/ad1s1h Avail: 0/76319 MB (0%) D ftp3 State: up Device /dev/da3s1h Avail: 0/114473 MB (0%) 2 volumes: V usr State: up Plexes: 1 Size: 16 GB V ftp State: up Plexes: 1 Size: 260 GB 2 plexes: P usr.p0 S State: up Subdisks: 2 Size: 16 GB P ftp.p0 C State: up Subdisks: 3 Size: 260 GB 5 subdisks: S usr.p0.s0 State: up PO: 0 B Size: 8383 MB S usr.p0.s1 State: up PO: 256 kB Size: 8383 MB S ftp.p0.s0 State: up PO: 0 B Size: 74 GB S ftp.p0.s1 State: up PO: 74 GB Size: 74 GB S ftp.p0.s2 State: up PO: 149 GB Size: 111 GB Next I 'quit' the vinum command line and fsck my newly created volume.

The system continues to run fine until the next reboot where the same problems start all over again. I also have the same problem with another volume I wish to run called "backup". How can I fix my vinum volumes so they survive reboots? Thanks for your help and Happy Holidays!

Well, as far as hardware goes for my tri-monitor, I usually have a Radeon 7500 and an geforce2 mx400 (or some other cruddy pci card) though I'm using a matrox G450 for the primary right now. Really, any combination of supported video cards will work about equally well. > Second, what is the support for something like this in > XFree86, or x.org ?

I'd like to say that this is a trivial thing to do, but I kind of doubt that it is. I know of no easy way to do this because X as it is now, assigns a "head" to a screen (where by head I mean a video card output) and in doing so, makes the "head" atomic in a sense. What it sounds like you'd like to do is create something smaller than this and assign it to a screen. It might be substantially easier to just purchase more monitors or learn to use virtual desktops. Good luck finding something that suits you :) -- If I write a signature, my emails will appear more personalised.

Ah, I guess this is a place where the documentation hasn't yet been updated. I didn't think to check the manpage until just after I sent my message. FWIW, as a layman/FreeBSD newbie, I'd make a suggestion that the manpage for MAKEDEV make it a bit more clear that having 'devfs' means that MAKEDEV commands are no longer necessary because devfs will take care of it automatically. I found myself trying to read 'man devfs' to figure out a way to manually make cuaa0.

I was thinking Rendezvous would be easier than setting up lpd, but I might be wrong. I'm not even sure that my printers (Brother 1240 and HP Deskjet something) support Rendezvous or how it works.

I am installing FreeBSD 5.3 on a hp netserver LC2000r. The box is a dual processor P3 with three scsi2 drives running in a raid1 configuration with one hot spare. We have six of these boxes. Three of them are running FreeBSD 4.8 or 4.9 without a hitch. I decided to install 5.3 from CD on a fourth box and I am having a problem. I go through the install process. When it goes to write the file structure to the drives it does this in a around 1 second - this seems very fast. Then it starts copying from the CD and I quickly get the following error: "Write failure on transfer! (wrote -1 bytes of 1425408 bytes)" I click ok and the next error message is: "unable to transfer the base distribution from acd0, do you want to try to retrieve it again?". So this has started me troubleshooting the possible causes of the problem: 1) First stop was to suspect the freebsd iso I had burnt was suspect. So I re burnt the cd and the problem persisted. I then suspected the ISO I had downloaded was corrupted. So I downloaded it again, burnt the cd but the problem still persisted. 2) I then suspected the second copy could have come from a cache and therefore may have the same problem as the first copy - so I checked the md5 signature but it lines up with the original from freebsd.org 3) I suspected the CD Rom drive - so I swapped it with one of our other Netserver boxes - problem still persisted. 4)I suspected a drive formatting problem - so I went back into the SCSI software, redid the raid drives and reformatted them - problem still persisted. 5) I suspected another hardware problem - so I pulled out FreeBSD 4.9 to see if that would install - and it did install without any errors. That sort of discounts there being any hardware problems. It points to something specific to freebsd 5.3. So this is where I have got to - FreeBSD 4.9 will install without errors but 5.3 will not install. I suspect the problem has to do with the initial setting up of the file structure - 5.3 is doing this in about one second whereas 4.9 takes closer to a minute to do this. Any thoughts or suggestion?

I believe FreeBSD 5.3 does support using UFS 1 in the install, just check the option in the disklabel program, but if the partitioning also fails then that may not be the problem. > > Lino > Webzone > _______________________________________________ > 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" -- I sense much NT in you.

I am a little lost on what you mean by virtual screen. But what you want is xinerama and a window manager that nicely supports it. Fluxbox last I checked did it nicely. Any ways, window placement and maximization and the like are a job of the window manager, not the X server. I eventually got annoyed with the xinerama part and went back to just letting them act like three seperate screens.

The configuration would be much like this: {Internet}--{Huge/NastyLAN}--{FreeBSDGate}--{SafeLAN} Most of what I see states that I should use a *minimum* of: 266Mhz processor 64MB RAM 1GB HD (actually ~2GB based on number desired security apps) 2 Compatible NIC's What I really had hoped to find, was more of an experienced networking guru's thumb rule equating the number of safeLAN workstations with the required gateway RAM/Processor; to enable all safeLAN users to experience a minimal network transaction time roughly equivalent to what they would see if plugged directly into a really good hub. Something maybe in the form of: Proc Speed = X*Users+Y RAM = W*Users+Z I am far too new at this to have a clue what numbers to use to even approximate. Any advice on this matter would be most appreciated. Thanks!

As far as the minimun amount of disk space is conserned the same thing as above goes, here is a FreeBSD router project that works on as little as 5MB: http://www.m0n0.ch/wall/ . Same thing goes for RAM and obviously you need to have at least two Network Interface Cards unless you wanted to route all traffic to /dev/null. >What I really had hoped to find, was more of an experienced >networking guru's thumb rule equating the number of safeLAN >workstations with the required gateway RAM/Processor; to >enable all safeLAN users to experience a minimal network >transaction time roughly equivalent to what they would see >if plugged directly into a really good hub. >Something maybe in the form of: >Proc Speed = X*Users+Y >RAM = W*Users+Z > > You would plug them into a switch not a hub.... if you did that then the router would be the least of your problems as the bottleneck is the hub now.

What you want, however, is something that has been on the wishlist for a little while now. Suspend-to-RAM has been around and works fine for a while, but Suspend-to-disc (which Linux currently has) is yet to be written. There have been suggestions of saving the RAM to swap space and shutting down. I hope to see someone put this into action soon. It'd be a great feature.

I'm specifically talking about freebsd on emulab.net. Yes, freebsd has had both corba and sun java for a long time. corba is needed by the gnome desktop which is very well supported on freebsd plus many gnome app even if you don't use the gnome desktop. Your pretty much guaranteed that freebsd will have corba already installed and running because of this. It uses ORBit, the same implementation used on linux and so all the same docs apply to freebsd, just check out orbits website. For java, freebsd can use ibm or sun's java implementation. ibm runs under linux emulation and sun can run under linux emulation or natively.

Also, you have the blackdown-java project. AFAIK it's open source as well, and it uses the Linux compatibility. Last time I compiled Java you required a working Java enviroment before you were able to compile Sun's Java implementation. Might be handy to keep that in mind.

It uses a variable called MAILDIRPATH which isn't defined anywhere that I can find: =20 /usr/local/libexec/courier-imap/couriertcpd -address=3D$ADDRESS \ = -stderrlogger=3D${exec_prefix}/sbin/courierlogger \ -stderrloggername=3Dimapd \ -maxprocs=3D$MAXDAEMONS -maxperip=3D$MAXPERIP \ -pid=3D$PIDFILE $TCPDOPTS \ $PORT ${exec_prefix}/sbin/imaplogin $LIBAUTHMODULES \ ${exec_prefix}/bin/imapd ${MAILDIRPATH}" =20 If I delete ${MAILDIRPATH} and replace it with "./Maildir", then everything works fine. However, I imagine there is a better (i.e. recommended) place for me to put this information. This is a machine running 4.10REL. =20 Can somebody tell me where MAILDIRPATH is supposed to be defined within this new rc.subr scheme and also if anybody has any idea why the rc script uses a variable which is undefined? =20 Thanks! =20 Leonard =20 leonard@chung:/usr/local/libexec/courier-imap# more imapd.rc=20 #! /bin/sh # $Id: imapd.rc.in,v 1.26 2004/04/18 15:54:38 mrsam Exp $ # # Copyright 1998 - 2002 Double Precision, Inc. # See COPYING for distribution information. =20 =20 prefix=3D/usr/local exec_prefix=3D/usr/local bindir=3D${exec_prefix}/bin libexecdir=3D/usr/local/libexec/courier-imap =20 if test ! -f /usr/local/etc/courier-imap/imapd then echo "/usr/local/etc/courier-imap/imapd does not exist, forgot make install-configure?" exit 1 fi =20 if test ! -f /usr/local/etc/courier-imap/imapd-ssl then echo "/usr/local/etc/courier-imap/imapd-ssl does not exist, forgot make install-configure?" exit 1 fi =20 TLS_CACHEFILE=3D"" . /usr/local/etc/courier-imap/imapd-ssl . /usr/local/etc/courier-imap/imapd =20 case $1 in start) LIBAUTHMODULES=3D"" for f in `echo $AUTHMODULES` do LIBAUTHMODULES=3D"$LIBAUTHMODULES /usr/local/libexec/courier-imap/authlib/$f" done =20 if test -x ${libexecdir}/authlib/authdaemond then /usr/bin/env - DEBUG_LOGIN=3D"$DEBUG_LOGIN" ${libexecdir}/authlib/authdaemond start fi =20 if test "$TLS_CACHEFILE" !=3D "" then rm -f $TLS_CACHEFILE fi =20 ulimit -v $IMAP_ULIMITD /usr/bin/env - /bin/sh -c " set -a ; prefix=3D/usr/local ; exec_prefix=3D/usr/local ; bindir=3D${exec_prefix}/bin ; libexecdir=3D/usr/local/libexec/courier-imap ; . /usr/local/etc/courier-imap/imapd ; \ . /usr/local/etc/courier-imap/imapd-ssl ; \ IMAP_STARTTLS=3D$IMAPDSTARTTLS ; export IMAP_STARTTLS ; = \ TLS_PROTOCOL=3D$TLS_STARTTLS_PROTOCOL ; \ /usr/local/libexec/courier-imap/couriertcpd -address=3D$ADDRESS \ = -stderrlogger=3D${exec_prefix}/sbin/courierlogger \ -stderrloggername=3Dimapd \ -maxprocs=3D$MAXDAEMONS -maxperip=3D$MAXPERIP \ -pid=3D$PIDFILE $TCPDOPTS \ $PORT ${exec_prefix}/sbin/imaplogin $LIBAUTHMODULES \ ${exec_prefix}/bin/imapd ${MAILDIRPATH}" ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^ ;; stop) /usr/local/libexec/courier-imap/couriertcpd -pid=3D$PIDFILE = -stop if test -x ${libexecdir}/authlib/authdaemond then ${libexecdir}/authlib/authdaemond stop fi ;; esac exit 0 From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Jan 2 12:42:24 2005 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8BE8616A4CE for ; Sun, 2 Jan 2005 12:42:24 +0000 (GMT) Received: from smtprelay01.ispgateway.de (smtprelay01.ispgateway.de [80.67.18.13]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4B42843D45 for ; Sun, 2 Jan 2005 12:42:23 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from freebsd-listen@fabiankeil.de) Received: (qmail 31241 invoked from network); 2 Jan 2005 12:42:19 -0000 Received: from unknown (HELO [192.168.2.48]) ([pbs]775067@[213.54.60.77]) (envelope-sender ) by smtprelay01.ispgateway.de (qmail-ldap-1.03) with SMTP for ; 2 Jan 2005 12:42:19 -0000 From: Fabian Keil To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Sun, 2 Jan 2005 13:41:53 +0100 User-Agent: KMail/1.7 References: <20041231111916.86047.qmail@web50201.mail.yahoo.com> <200412310703.06294.algould@datawok.com> In-Reply-To: <200412310703.06294.algould@datawok.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Message-Id: <200501021341.54023.freebsd-listen@fabiankeil.de> cc: babaloo munchies cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Production Release 5.3 Installation Won't Boot X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 02 Jan 2005 12:42:24 -0000 On Friday 31 December 2004 14:03, Andrew L.

I'd be surprised, if the drive supported speed=1. "Low speed == better quality" is a myth, so I'd change the speed option with -sao (I believe -tao is still the default) and burn at maximum speed.

For connecting to internet I am using PPP via ISDN. One of my FreeBSD (4.10) boxes uses kernel sppp, the other one is configured with userland ppp. My isp charges the connection time in seconds resolution so I configured a very short hangup delay of 25 seconds after inactivity. This works fine for udp connections and also for smtp/pop/nntp, but not for http. After closing a web browser (I use konqueror or opera) "netstat -nf inet" shows a lot of active or closing connections. So I reduced all "net.inet.tcp.*" times I could find to not more than 15 seconds. This helped, but still from time to time I see a connection slowly dying in FIN_WAIT_1 state. That means, ppp disconnects and immediately dials again, disconnects again after 25 seconds without any traffic and dials again and so on... for about 3 minutes. I read through the tcp codebut, well, can't say, I really look through it. May be, there is still a hard-coded timeout, I could manipulate through an additional sysctl? I am rather sure that it is a problem of the tcp protocol (or its misuse), and not an isdn or ppp problem. (BTW, the windows software Fritz!ISDN, shipped with the AVM isdn card, does quite a good job with short hangup delays, but I don't know how) Any ideas? May be there is a way to RST a tcp connection in the ppp-down script? Or perhaps some stateful ipfw rule?

(i.e. I keep a backup drive unmounted, and mount it read-only when users need their data). The thing is, I have to mount it read-write in order to create the archive. Is there any way to make a file system read-only for normal users but read-write by root? This is a local filesystem. -Dan -- "It doesn't matter where I live, because I live in dataspace.

How much CPU/RAM you need is going to be dependant on more than just the number of computers involved. Two additional factors can play a large part: 1) The number of firewall rules and 2) the amount of traffic (such as UDP) that creates dynamic rules. Rules take time to process, and more traffic takes more time with more rules. UDP traffic usually requires stateful rules, and that generates dynamic rules, which increases the amount of time to process each packet. So it's important to design your ruleset carefully to avoid unnecessary processing. However, in my experience, the most critical hardware choice is the network cards themselves. Cheapo network cards will really hurt performance under load. So toss the cheapo Realtek cards into the trash and spend a little extra on an Intel or other name brand card designed for a server. As a general rule of thumb, I won't put FreeBSD on anything smaller than a 1Ghz with 128M of RAM and 4G of disk space. While you can get away with smaller, that's about the minimum before using the box for maintenance purposes becomes a terrible burdon.

In the first time, I don't want to recompile my kernel. So, I add the following line to /boot/loader.conf: if_fxp_load="YES" The driver loaded and the adapter identified as fxp0. But the system reboot every time while I tried to run ifconfig on fxp0. Did I do anything wrong using loadable module? Or loadable module support not stable on this release. The second time, I compile fxp driver to my new kernel and every thing seem work ok. This 82550 adapter has 3des support bulletin, how can I identify this function enabled? I alread use link0 parameter on ifconfig to load microcode as manual page instructed.

Actually, not really, as I've been unable to make modern versions of VMWare work on FreeBSD. But it's a great way to boot Linux under Windows, or FreeBSD under either, or have multiple OSes running simultaneously under a single computer. > What you want, > however, is something that has been on the wishlist for a little while > now.

When using tethereal to do captures, I found that nicing the capture process reduced the incidence of dropped packets to 0.

[...] Similarly to Mr. Foulk, I'm also in the market for a pair of NICs for a small organization's firewall/gateway (in this case using IPFilter). Per your plug for Intel, I'm browsing 3Com and Intel NICs right now on mwave.com. Intel 10/100 w 3DES - $63 http://www.mwave.com/mwave/viewspec.hmx?scriteria=1562535 3Com 10/100 w 3DES - $92 http://www.mwave.com/mwave/viewspec.hmx?scriteria=3387169 Why do you suppose that while the 3Com seems very similar to the Intel it costs $30 more? Perhaps because it specs more types of encryption than the Intel NIC? How would this hardware acceleration integrate w FreeBSD? Per some Linux binary compat (as both cards are compat w Linux kernel 2.2+)? Will the hardware encryption on these cards ever be useful in a firewall/gateway application?

Is this normal? I think it's rather impractical, since it prevents proper log rotation through newsyslog.conf (when using "file" logging in named.conf).

Here's what I did to determine the DNS that my ISP was assigning me. I changed the dhclient.conf back to empty and restarted the network. This then put the IPs of the two DNS servers assigned into my resolv.conf. I then took these two IPs and added them to my forwarders section in my named.conf. Rebooted and name lookup is much faster now. It only took my wife grumping about having to hit refresh 20+ times to bring up a web page in order for me to fix this since we've moved and changed ISPs.

Yes, this works here also. In the long run, it would probably be a good idea to make newsyslog understand arbitrary commands for restarting, instead of just sending a signal. mkb.

I need to write some very basic C programs under FreeBSD. I am new to Unix programming and not very good at C programming either, so I'm looking for documentation on some topics. The ones that are the most interesting for me now is how to write small daemons best and how to read ipfw info from a program. Man pages help me very much, but I really need some guide. The problem is that doc project doesn't seem to have released anything like it. I looked through dev-, arch-, porters- handbooks, read design-44bsd - but I didn't find what I want. Of course I can refresh my C skills and gain some Unix-coding knowledge by reading a couple' thousand pages, but I don't feel like it's necessary for what I want to write - just a basic statistics collector. Should I explore FreeBSD source code or is there some solid piece of documentation? Best wishes, Andrew P.

It's worked perfectly for months. As of a month ago, when I swapped the drive for another one, the drive has not worked properly. A few days ago, my employer went on-site (the server is colocated) to swap the drive. The new drive had the same problem, and rebooting the server did not correct the problem. It was also reported that the last time he unplugged the drive (the fs on the drive was not mounted) the system crashed; he has since not plugged in the drive. Now the details... dmesg shows that it found a mass storage device and properly identifies it, and usbdevs also reports the drive; however, attempting to mount the drive causes "mount: /dev/da0s1e: Device not configured" and the message "umass0: BBB reset failed, TIMEOUT" appears in the dmesg. The external drive uses device usb4, since usb0 through usb3 are reported as USB1. It was suggested that having both the USB1 (uhci) and USB2 (ehci) driver may be causing confusion in the kernel. I find this unlikely, though, since it's been working for months. Any thoughts or troubleshooting tips? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

If that Brother 1240 is a b/w laser, you're going to need to setup apsfilter first. Then just make that printer accessible from the rest of the network.

Of course you could do that in C, but if all you need is a program that reads the output of other programs, and presents stats on some port as a daemon (and a client to read that out), why not just go for a scripted solution in Perl or Python? Both languages are much better than C when it comes to parsing strings, and they are very good at networking too. IMHO, the only reason (besides efficiency) to write a monitoring program in C is if you don't want (or can't afford) to install a perl or python interpreter on the nodes that you want to monitor. > Should I explore FreeBSD source code or is there some solid piece of > documentation? That's not necessary. If you want to write that in C, you'll have to familiarize yourself with the popen(3) call for executing a program and capturing its output. Then you need a few string processing functions like str*(3) sscanf() etc... to parse the output (that's the tricky part). Finally you will need a small example of a client and server in C that uses the sockets API (that's pretty generic and not FreeBSD-specific at all, just google for it). Combine all this and voila, you've got your nice monitoring app in C. Alternatively, you could extract the info directly from the kernel by performing exactly the same steps that your utility program (ipfw...) does, but it's overkill for such a simple app. But again, consider giving Python a try. It's well worth it for such basic tasks. > Best wishes, > Andrew P.

You're liable to get a LOT of opinion on this. Personally, the only thing I have against sendmail is that it's configuration makes me dizzy. I use Postfix, and I recommend it to most, as it does a nice job of being secure, yet easy to configure. > Furthermore, can someone recommend a decent POP3 and IMAP server? I've been using Dovecot for quite some time now. It's not even a 1.0 product yet, and I still find it excellent for both POP and IMAP. It includes support for both POP3S and IMAPS, which I find very important in this day and age. Postfix delivering to maildirs + Dovecot for POP3S/IMAPS makes a very reliable and secure setup in my opinion. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Jan 2 20:30:20 2005 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B086816A4CF for ; Sun, 2 Jan 2005 20:30:20 +0000 (GMT) Received: from mx1.mail.ru (mx1.mail.ru [194.67.23.121]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4FA7643D1F for ; Sun, 2 Jan 2005 20:30:20 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from infofarmer@mail.ru) Received: from [83.237.208.152] (port=3919 helo=[172.17.0.69]) by mx1.mail.ru with esmtp id 1ClCMl-00084B-00; Sun, 02 Jan 2005 23:30:19 +0300 Message-ID: <41D859DC.5080400@mail.ru> Date: Sun, 02 Jan 2005 23:30:20 +0300 From: "Andrew P."

Considering sendmail's track record, the OpenBSD FAQ says something to the effect that the maintainers of sendmail are responsive to security issues, unlike many projects, and the code now appears to be as secure as anything else out there.

I've had bad experience so far with dovecot, including, but not limited to, lock file problems, hung imap processes in the bulk, and behaviour that neither matched the comments in the sample config file, nor the documentation (and both were contradictory), like the way to configure inbox and folder locations. Unless the OP has the time and resources to experiment, I'd suggest leaving that software alone for a while still until it has been stabilized, and go for proven alternatives like Cyrus or Courier (or even uw-imapd, if it's a one-person setup). mkb.

You have to make sure that your system is indeed using the proper executable and the proper libs. If you have things mixed you can have a serious problem. AFAIK everything is put in /compat/linux ... so deinstalling it wouldn't bring in too much problem. However, unless you have serious disk space problems, I can't see why risk to break stuff if it is not needed. Correct me if any of the above things are wrong, of course :) Cheers, Jorn From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Jan 2 21:57:13 2005 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 053C416A4CF for ; Sun, 2 Jan 2005 21:57:13 +0000 (GMT) Received: from ds.netgate.net (ds.netgate.net [205.214.170.232]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A3DE443D2D for ; Sun, 2 Jan 2005 21:57:12 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from ctodd@chrismiller.com) Received: (qmail 3983 invoked from network); 2 Jan 2005 21:57:12 -0000 Received: from vp4.netgate.net (ibrew@205.214.170.248) by ds.netgate.net with SMTP; 2 Jan 2005 21:57:12 -0000 Date: Sun, 2 Jan 2005 13:57:12 -0800 (PST) From: ctodd@chrismiller.com X-X-Sender: ibrew@vp4.netgate.net To: Bill Moran In-Reply-To: <20050102100949.6d0822d5.wmoran@potentialtech.com> Message-ID: References: <20050102100949.6d0822d5.wmoran@potentialtech.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII cc: Eric Kjeldergaard cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: write state to swap for multi-os boot X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 02 Jan 2005 21:57:13 -0000 On Sun, 2 Jan 2005, Bill Moran wrote: > But it's a great way to boot Linux under Windows, or FreeBSD under > either, or have multiple OSes running simultaneously under a single > computer.

So have other MTAs, including one for Postfix not so long ago. Sendmail configuration can be charitably called "odd", but it's so widely used that answers can usually be found on google or groups.google.com.

Does anyone know of a good tutorial/howto for configuring sendmail on FreeBSD. My two books ('Absolute BSD' and 'The Complete FreeBSD') make little mention of sendmail configuration and focus on setting up postfix. The FreeBSD Handbook seems incomplete and glosses over details: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mail.html 1.) How do I edit /etc/rc.conf to start sendmail at boot. 2.) Most of the configurations files seem pretty normal, but sendmail.cf seems quite obtuse. I guess I'm looking for a document that would walk a newbie through setting up sendmail on FreeBSD without being too arcane or not detailed enough. My experience with some of the other Oreilly books leads me to believe they're pretty generic; I doubt I'd find information on how to setup sendmail for FreeBSD.

I think you'll get this through the window manager. I'm only running two monitors with the Xinerama extensions (Xorg) but I use fvwm as my window manager. Just define your desktop to be a 1X2 area, and you'll have 2 screens for each monitor. I use 3X2, so I have 3 screens for each monitor. You can even use the pager to define multiple desktops, all using the same geography. If you want each screen to scroll individually of the others, meaning changing the screen on one monitor doesn't change the screen on the others, I'm not sure that's possible. Think of the monitors as a 3 paned window onto the desktop, and everything makes sense. Good luck.

This has to be a troll. Let's ponder this... The user states, "I have been using the OS for over a year now", Hmmm seems to me that the user should KNOW the answer to, "and how come FreeBSD is not as popular as RH/Fedora?" In addition - using it for a year now, this would make one think that the user would have read the cert thread of not even a month ago. But let's really notice how the user unfolds the message. Starts off nice, curious to a point and even showing that the user wishes to possibly contribute to the foundation as a whole. Once the user "softens" the audience, delivers the one-two punch tactic of the evil creature known as a troll. However, this one don't look like Shrek ... Just my comical way of looking at things. -- Best regards, Chris A budget is spending $15.00 on gas to drive to a shopping mall to save $4.30 on a 20 pound turkey.

I preferred to use newsgroups search and a little bit of posting. I am wondering, why mailing list is the official support mechanism (as opposed to newsgroups)? Ruby seems to be supported through newsgroups quite nicely. It seems to me that mailing lists still expose senders email address. I am worried about getting spam because of this. Ok, nntp is even worse, but I can manage that. I also find that email applications don't deal as well with high volume email messages. I am comparing against newsreaders like: - Emacs GNUS - slrn I like these newsreaders, because they allow me to assign scores based on the subject and authors. I can easily handle a very high volume ruby newsgroup. The longer I use the newsreader the faster I become. For example, if I did not pay attention the the original message the replies are ignored automatically for me. I will read 2 - 3 messages I am interested out of 1000 post list in 30 seconds. Ok, may be I am using the wrong tools... I settled on Evolution as my primary application and I like it. Thunderbird is not bad either. Neither can handle high volume subscriptions. I'd appretiate advice on how to improve email handling. --=-4OtAfR2fWxmbkBY5y/Fc Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBB2Jq3LG0a64EQke4RAqm9AKCWVawv9tTcW2VRWzX6PrJrpjv/wQCfZVpR /UEzAPv2frEzw37pUi69U38= =vs98 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-4OtAfR2fWxmbkBY5y/Fc-- From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Jan 3 01:20:45 2005 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4291516A4CE for ; Mon, 3 Jan 2005 01:20:45 +0000 (GMT) Received: from ispmxmta06-srv.alltel.net (ispmxmta06-srv.alltel.net [166.102.165.167]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 985C843D31 for ; Mon, 3 Jan 2005 01:20:43 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from trey@fastmail.fm) Received: from [192.168.0.2] (really [69.40.74.131]) by ispmxmta06-srv.alltel.net with ESMTP id <20050103012042.JUZI4112.ispmxmta06-srv.alltel.net@[192.168.0.2]> for ; Sun, 2 Jan 2005 19:20:42 -0600 From: Trey Sizemore To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org In-Reply-To: <1104696792.806.6.camel@localhost> References: <1104696792.806.6.camel@localhost> Content-Type: text/plain Date: Sun, 02 Jan 2005 20:22:14 -0500 Message-Id: <1104715334.806.11.camel@localhost> Mime-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Evolution 2.0.3 FreeBSD GNOME Team Port Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Subject: Re: Why might my USB devices *not* be detected?

It's a lot easier to read email offline than nntp, for one, and conversations progress much quicker on email lists because people interested in the topic get messages immediately instead of having to constantly poll the news server. I subscribe to mailing lists that I am active on, and less-frequently used ones I read via gmane's nntp interface every few days.

Obviously not a well thought out question, but I have to admit that I *don't* read *every* single thread on the list. In fact I probably read half - or less, of what comes to me through the list. I just don't have time. As far as why FreeBSD isn't as popular as RH/Fedora - wait, you really mean it isn't? :) > In addition - using it for a year now, this would make one think that > the user would have read the cert thread of not even a month ago. There are threads from yesterday I didn't read. I try to limit what I read to those that indicate (reasonably) from the subject that it is something I can answer, something related to a particular problem I'm working on, or something otherwise of interest. I've been using FreeBSD for almost 5 years, and my knowledge of it is still a drop in the bucket. > But let's really notice how the user unfolds the message.

Thought I was the answer to all FreeBSDs problems :) Chalk it up to Newbie Zeal. Yeah, even though he's been using it for a year. Using it doesn't mean learning the internals, architecture, etc. I can install the OS, ports, set up a mail services, web services, ftp, firewall (more or less) and still I'm a newbie. FreeBSD is definitely my OS of preference, but I've lost a little of that zeal. > Once the user "softens" the audience, delivers the one-two punch tactic > of the evil creature known as a troll.

This has been hashed > over many, many times. Do a little work on your part - and you'll find > out on your own. That last line: "Do a little work on your part - and you'll find out on your own." That's the certification program :) You can learn more about FreeBSD in a month on the list and reading the books written on it than you'll ever learn (or care to retain) from some MS cert program. Best part is it only costs book fees and . . . what's the brains equivalent of "elbow grease"? Hard work, anyway. The thing to remember is that "using" FreeBSD isn't "learning" FreeBSD. Not in the sense of a cert program. I've been "using" FreeBSD for almost 5 years, but I'd be up the creek if I had to perform a major crash recovery. I just haven't gotten round to that yet. If you want a FreeBSD cert, find the goals list of any major Unix cert program, learn how to do that on FreeBSD (on at least two major releases, like 4.10 and 5.3) then do it a lot. That's your cert, but it's really a self signed cert. If you did all the work, it's every bit as good as the one you'd have paid $2850 for, but there's no fancy plaque to hang up (unless you make it yourself) and nobody has to honor it - not that they *have* to place much stock in the MS or Sun certs. Good luck.

Since nobody else so far has mentioned exim - that's what I use on my mail servers (FreeBSD and OpenBSD). On FreeBSD and elsewhere it's an easy install from ports, and it comes with a fairly human-readable configuration file which comes out of the default install fairly well commented. If you read and follow the port's onscreen directions, you'll end up with a fairly good spam+worm filtering setup for your mail as well.

The only one I know was discussed here: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2004-August/056525.html With a link here: http://cpe.njit.edu/opensourceunix/ But I must warn you it is non-credit, non-accredited. It's also quite a bit more costly than going down to the local community college. Nor do they guarentee to make you a "guru" Of course, the other vendor certifications, such as that from Microsoft, are also non-credit, non-accredited, and have no guarentee to make you a guru either. > > I have been using the OS for over a year now and have become very > familiar with installation/configuration but would like to be able to > add some sort of certification to my CV. There is really no point in doing that. The above course might be good to train you, but it's value as a pure "sheepskin" is nonexistent. You might as easily make up a certificate on a desktop publishing program if that is all you want it for. Certifications, ie: non-accredited coursework, are primariarly valuable in accordance to the 'brand' they carry. With all due respect to NJIT, nobody has heard of the "FreeBSD Certificate" they offer. By contrast, a MCSE, well everyone has heard of Microsoft and thus one of those certificates is much more valuable. If you want to spend your money on coursework, spend it on accredited courses that are transferable to any college or university. > Also how much of a "threat" is Solaris 10 x86 to FreeBSD None. Two different markets. People buy Solaris because they need it to run commercial programs (typically UNIX binaries) that require it. People setup FreeBSD because they need a UNIX that runs UNIX source code programs. While it is possible to compile Open Source programs on Solaris (indeed, Sun has already done this for many of the popular ones) speaking as an admin that runs a shop that does this in production, there is little point in doing it. Both Solaris and FreeBSD run whatever open source software you want to run well enough for production. But Sun isn't going to support an Open Source program that you compile on their operating system, unless you have purchased the Sun compiler, the Sun development tools and have a Sun service contract, and very few shops do this as it is quite costly. We don't do it and to be honest the only reason we do run Solaris in production is that one of the admins here is more comfortable with it than with FreeBSD. Since the application that runs on it is his responsibility and I have no desire to micromanage, it runs Solaris. > and how come > FreeBSD is not as popular as RH/Fedora? > Because of the same reason that Microsoft booted Apple out of the personal computer market. It was a favorable congruence of factors. None of the people who are the recognized 'movers and shakers' in this deal, such as Bob Young, really had any idea at the time that they were doing the Right Things. Bob isn't any different than 99% of businessman walking around today except that he was extremely lucky. Very much the Bill Gates story. It is easy now to look back and realize that 1996 and 1997 were 'nexus' years for Open Source. Bob got involved in Linux years earlier not because Linux was better but simply because the first people to show him Open Source UNIX happened to be running Linux. If they had been running FreeBSD then today FreeBSD would be the darling of the trade rags. Or, if someone else had been doing the same thing in 1996 and 1997 with FreeBSD, then today FreeBSD and Linux would be equivalent in the trade rags. These years were critical for UNIX primariarly because of Windows 95 coming out with a usable TCP/IP stack. Prior to Windows 95, TCP/IP on a desktop OS was expensive, the IP stacks at that time cost more than DOS or Windows. Once Windows 95 came out with TCP/IP (and to a lesser extent, Windows for Workgroups 3.11) it in conjunction with SAMBA cracked the door to an alternative server OS. Here's a list of all the things that came together in 1996-1997 that brought Linux and to a lesser extent FreeBSD, into the realm of commercial alternatives for server operating systems: 1) The failure of Novell with Netware 4 2) A free TCP/IP stack with Windows for Workgroups 3.11 and Windows 95 3) 32bit desktop computing in Win95 which got rid of the argument between the networking stack and the applications in the desktop PC over system resources, and allowed very large and complex networking stacks (which TCP/IP is) on desktop PCs 4) The explosion of the Internet and huge demand for IP-aware applications 5) Microsoft didn't have a usable e-mail and web server solution for Windows NT 3.5.1 and 4.0 6) Microsoft didn't drop the cost of their server products to freeze out Open Source (and still hasn't which is the principle reason that industry even considers open source to this day) Note that Microsoft has had no problems giving away free web browser and now streaming viewer software in order to consolidate their hold on those markets. 7) The failure of Apple to abandon MacOS and go to UNIX as a base OS during this time (this eventually happened as we all know, but too late) 8) The failure of all the AT&T UNIX source licensees to recognize that the key UNIX Open Source applications that people wanted to run (web servers, ftp servers, e-mail, etc.) were at production quality level, and to leverage this fact to increase the market of their UNIX products. This eventually happened at least with Sun who for several years gave away Solaris server licenses for free, and even today sells the base Solaris OS for a tenth of what they charged in 1996. 9) The fact that in order to maintain backwards compatability Microsoft was forced to retain all the "workgroup style" NetBIOS networking code in Windows, which allowed SAMBA to become a player. And finally, one of the big motivators was the dot-com boom which put what was obscenly high competitive pressures on the startup ISP's at the time - the ISP's that tried to build systems the old-fashioned-way, with Solaris servers and such, had far too high overhead to compete with the startup ISP's who used FreeBSD and Linux. Because most of the startup ISPs were run by technical gurus (nobody else around knew anything about how the Internet worked) a huge amount of work was poured into both Linux and FreeBSD at that time. By the time that the FreeBSD Project tried taking things more commercial with the Walnut Creek/BSDI merger, it was 4 years later and it was too late for it. Not to mention that by then, the normal business cycle of boom/bust had started heading down. The 90's were an extremely high boom period for technology, and as the saying goes, the higher you climb the harder you fall, and a serious bust was imminent. The US election putting a deficit spender in the White House followed by 9-11 further worsened the economic crisis in technology. It is important to realize today, however, that the story is still unfolding. Microsoft is still the 900 pound gorilla in the commercial realm and they are still sufficiently unpredictable to know what they are going to do in the future. We are also still going through a shakeout in the technology industry and most businesses are being very conservative on new IT projects and on changing things around. This probably won't change much for another 3 years. People had a lot of changes in 1995-2000 and overall they aren't interested in going through this again, they would rather coast for awhile. By 2010-2015 a lot of the old guard by then will be retired and out of the loop and we will be dealing with a really fscked up economy with the baby boomers and there's going to be a need for businesses to look at new ways of doing things in order to survive.

And since the software publishers and hardware vendors are the major advertisers in the computing press trade ragazines, and the hardware vendors don't care about the Windows vs FreeBSD vs Linux debate and make money from all of us, over this issue the software publishers are going to influence every column written, every survey taken, every interview published and every so-called news article on the subject. Of course the real truth is that nobody knows how many Linux systems compared to FreeBSD systems are in production. But from the industries point of view, the only counts that matter are those of SALES of operating systems. Red Hat doesen't get any more credit for downloads of the older versions of RedHat or of Fedora from the trade press than we get for downloads of FreeBSD. I might point out however that numbers aren't everything. There were far more Volkswagen Beetles sold than there have been Corvettes, but you might consider that the Corvette is still in production, as is the Mustang, while the Bug is little more than a piece of history.

Sigh. I've downloaded the following ISO image files: 5.3-RELEASE-i386-bootonly.iso 5.3-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso 5.3-RELEASE-i386-disc2.iso I've also tried burning the first file to CD-Rs using Windows XP Home's own facilities and using Sonic RecordNow! under said system, but did not get bootable CDs either way. I also tried mounting the Windows partition onto /mnt under 5.2.1 and using the burncd command to burn the first file onto a CD-RW and, later, the second file onto a CD-RW. Neither attempt gave me a bootable CD. I've also looked in the _FreeBSD_Handbook_ that came with the 5.2.1 CDs, but did not find explicit instructions on how to make bootable CDs, just some limited instructions on making bootable floppies. If someone would be so kind as to email me instructions on how best to make bootable CDs for 5.3-RELEASE, I'd really appreciate it. (There's probably no need to post them to the list.) Over a month has passed, and I still don't have a usable FreeBSD system (no wireless networking, no graphics support). It's getting to be really depressing.

What about just installing a precompiled package of openoffice instead? I don't think you need java or gcc to be installed for that. Try pkg_add -r openoffice-1.1 or portinstall -PP editors/openoffice-1.1 if you have portupgrade installed. Also, amd64 should be able to run all i386 programs just as well as a real i386 machine can, maybe defined CPUTYPE to i686 or something will allow you to build java, gcc, and openoffice. There is also a freebsd package of openoffice available on their site I believe. > > Thanks > Sean > _______________________________________________ > 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" -- I sense much NT in you.

Strange. Every decent burning program on windows (cdrwin, nero) has an option to burn iso _images_ to a cdr(w). Because it is an image(!) the cdr(w) will be bootable (it's an image of a bootable cd). -- dick -- http://www.nagual.st/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 4.10 ++ Debian GNU/Linux (Woody) + Nai tiruvantel ar vayuvantel i Valar tielyanna nu vilya From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Jan 3 09:48:53 2005 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6AC1416A4CE for ; Mon, 3 Jan 2005 09:48:53 +0000 (GMT) Received: from rproxy.gmail.com (rproxy.gmail.com [64.233.170.195]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1103843D1D for ; Mon, 3 Jan 2005 09:48:53 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from kjelderg@gmail.com) Received: by rproxy.gmail.com with SMTP id z35so221505rne for ; Mon, 03 Jan 2005 01:48:51 -0800 (PST) DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; q=dns; c=nofws; s=beta; d=gmail.com; h=received:message-id:date:from:reply-to:to:subject:cc:in-reply-to:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:references; b=n5UGmU50ADWXdWy1XZuuyAhrqGNs5656O4eYHTQ8TooJGgtf9nX5UJ9jwwEUcbutTEoyheMXf/pkzg7Q30peG5VItfnRliwF/rvfN+84CC4oFXuNmXWqR4PFlAHRSO9RXPcY0OvqmoQ+eFGKOvsiTHTvsi3CZUO+12hf91UhPGY= Received: by 10.38.15.52 with SMTP id 52mr482232rno; Mon, 03 Jan 2005 01:48:50 -0800 (PST) Received: by 10.38.101.3 with HTTP; Mon, 3 Jan 2005 01:48:50 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: Date: Mon, 3 Jan 2005 03:48:50 -0600 From: Eric Kjeldergaard To: "ctodd@chrismiller.com" In-Reply-To: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit References: <20041227083502.2d865466.wmoran@potentialtech.com> <20050102100949.6d0822d5.wmoran@potentialtech.com> cc: Bill Moran cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: write state to swap for multi-os boot X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list Reply-To: Eric Kjeldergaard List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 03 Jan 2005 09:48:53 -0000 > > But it's a great way to boot Linux under Windows, or FreeBSD under > > either, or have multiple OSes running simultaneously under a single > > computer. > > How good is device support from within vmware? Can I get to > serial/usb/audio/network ports seamlessly? Well, these things aren't exactly seamless, but they are doable. In (all?) of these cases, the access to the host's resources are done indirectly via drivers and emulated hardware. An exception to this is USB which can (I think) be done directly allowing a client to utilise the USB devices of the host regardless of the support of the individual device by the host. As far as network, it can be natted or bridged from the controller, and audio is done as a sound device driver that just streams the sound to the parent's sound mechanism. -- If I write a signature, my emails will appear more personalised.

On my laptop, USB devices were only detected when the system booted, not when it was already up. That issue was solved by compiling ehci into the kernel.

I mean it SHUTDOWN my machine. There is a possibility that the machine contains various components which are not fully supported in FreeBSD/amd64. What happens if you try booting FreeBSD/i386 instead? I know this may not be the most satisfying suggestion, but if it's that or not getting the machine to boot at all, well, there it is. I'd venture a guess that whichever software came with the machine originally is not quite 64 bit clean either. -- Peter N. M.

I want to have a single accessible directory with a password, that can be accessed from the inner network (10.0.0.X) as well as from the outer network (outer network = Windows PCs that use the same external router as the FreeBSD PC). It works for the inner network, but not for the outer network (see below for network scheme). All Windows PCs are XP. For testing this, I use an 'open' firewall. I should tighten the firewall as soon as this is working. The /usr/local/etc/smb.conf (configured with swat) is as follows: #------------ smb.conf ---------------------------------- [global] workgroup = CISR netbios name = SURFACE server string = FreeBSD Samba Server passdb backend = tdbsam log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 50 dns proxy = No ldap ssl = no [share] comment = Shared stuff path = /home/share invalid users = @wheel valid users = share read only = No force create mode = 0700 force security mode = 0700 #--------------------------------------------------------- The network scheme is as follows: |IP on outer network | |---------| | FreeBSD | |------------| | Router | | Switch | |---------| |------------| |10.0.0.1 | | | | | | | | \----------/ | | | | | 10.0.0.2 | | | 10.0.0.3 | 10.0.0.4 What could be blocking Samba on the outer network? What communication is essential for Samba to work on the outer network? What tests can I do on the router to find out what's going wrong? Thanks so much, Rob.

You can use IP's or the interface names (rl0, wi0, ndis0, ed0, etc...). I think you will have to use the advanced option in swat to be able to define this. Swat will also have more details on this option in the "help". In addition to setting firewall rules up, samba also has a deny/allow section, again the swat help on the option will give you more details. -- - James From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Jan 3 14:54:16 2005 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C2F9716A4CE for ; Mon, 3 Jan 2005 14:54:16 +0000 (GMT) Received: from pmihiv.hu (flora.pmihiv.hu [62.77.195.19]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 644B143D1F for ; Mon, 3 Jan 2005 14:54:11 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from freebsd-questions@pmihiv.hu) Received: from [172.17.3.23] (uuu.pmi [172.17.3.23]) by ujs.pmi (8.12.10/8.12.10) with ESMTP id j03C6Xpn054396 for ; Mon, 3 Jan 2005 13:06:33 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from freebsd-questions@pmihiv.hu) Message-ID: <41D93287.8070105@pmihiv.hu> Date: Mon, 03 Jan 2005 12:54:47 +0100 From: Sitkei Attila User-Agent: Mozilla Thunderbird 0.8 (X11/20041104) X-Accept-Language: en-us, en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org References: <20041230175745.A151A16A4D0@hub.freebsd.org> <41D455CF.2040802@gromit.dlib.vt.edu> In-Reply-To: <41D455CF.2040802@gromit.dlib.vt.edu> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-2; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-AntiVirus: checked by AntiVir Milter 1.0.7; AVE 6.29.0.5; VDF 6.29.0.39 Subject: Re: FreeBSD server(s) to backup multi-platform systems remotely X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 03 Jan 2005 14:54:16 -0000 >>> From a backup point of view, my goal... >> >> >> On a nightly and automated basis - to take a snapshot of all new and >> modified data from a FreeBSD server and Windows server.

Previously, my consolewas limited to 1/3 rd of my screen, however due to the new current-vesa patch I can now view my console using the entire screen with only one problem. I have noticed that there is a small delay of two seconds when switching from X to my vesa consoles. Furethermore, I have noticed that if I am playing music via xmms whether through a shoutcast stream or an mp3 from my harddrive the music continues to play a small portion repeatedly until the vesa console comes up. That can be very irritating. The same happens for Xine I have attached a copy of my pci_configuration as well as a copy of the patch which I applied to my system. I hope that will be of some help.

Thanks. I have added following lines in the [global] section of smb.conf: interfaces = fxp0, rl0, lo0 bind interfaces only = Yes hosts allow = 123.45.67.89/28, 10.0.0.0/24, 127.0.0.1 hosts deny = ALL Is that what you are talking about? rl0 interface is connected to the 10.0.0.0/24 inner-network and fxp0 is connected to the outer-network with gateway 123.45.67.1. (I use real IP addresses instead of 123.45.67.89, of course). Rob.
