Re: My unqualified host name
nyana sm-mta[803]: My unqualified host name (nyana) unknown; sleeping for retry ... sendmail expects your machine to have working DNS and for the machine to have a valid FQDN. Either set that up, or add sendmail_enable=NONE to /etc/rc.conf to disable sendmail ... There is another approach, which is to ignore the message. After something like 3 repetitions, at something like a minute apart, it will give up on qualifying its name. Everything seems to work just fine thereafter until the next boot, when the entire sequence repeats. Respectfully, my gut reaction is this is, if not /bad/ practice, at least not /good/ practice. The requirements for geting sendmail to behave (at least in this regard) are not particularly onerous; If sendmail *will not work properly* without a valid FQDN, that alone is onerous. See below. why not just diagnose and fix the root problem? because I have no clue how to do it, without adopting settings that I don't want! Dunno about the OP, but my FreeBSD machines do not have nor need valid FQDNs because they sit behind a NAT firewall (and therefore do not have externally-identifiable IP addresses). I want hostname to simply return the unqualified host name (say, foo), not foo.com nor foo.uucp nor even foo.bogus. I don't need sendmail to handle anything but purely local traffic, such as the periodic reports to root, and it's just fine for it to identify itself simply as foo. We were able to do things like this back in the days of SunOS 4, so why should it be difficult to accomplish today? Indeed, why should it not be the default mode of operation when hostname returns an unqualified name? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Wow. That's a really complicated way to say
#! /bin/sh
nc $1 $2
It's also ugly (and very old-fashioned) Perl. Starting at (and replacing) the
require 'sys/socket.ph' line (which is Perl 4, I think), it should look more
like this (with appropriate error-checking added):
use Socket;
my $proto = getprotobyname('tcp');
socket(my $socket, PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, $proto);
my $sock_in = sockaddr_in($printer_port, inet_aton($printer_host));
connect($socket, $sock_in);
Although this rewrite removes the need, if you want in general to ignore some
of the return values of a function returning a list, the usual way is to
assign to undef:
(undef, undef, undef, undef, $address) = gethostbyname($printer_host);
Although when you're throwing away that many, it makes more sense to index the
returned list in the same way you would index an array:
$address = (gethostbyname($printer_host))[4] # returns 5th element
I really should submit a doc patch for this (incorporating Dan's sterling
suggestion of nc $1 $2).

I actually built perl5.8 from a slightly older port, once, and got the same results. The port of mrtg is fairly old and was installed successfully on the system that works and also installed successfully on the broken system except it can't find its libraries. Any ideas? 1. Make sure that you really have only one perl version and all dependent ports use the same version. A simple command may help: - % ls -l /usr/local/lib/perl5 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/local/lib/perl5: total 6 drwxr-xr-x 46 root wheel 3072 23 sep 19:06 5.8.8 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 23 sep 19:06 site_perl /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl: total 2 drwxr-xr-x 6 root wheel 512 24 sep 13:53 5.8.8 - You should get directories only for one perl version. If there are others than find out which perl dependent ports were not updated. 2. Make sure that you really don't have that file at your system. Find(1) may help here while locate(1) may have a stale database. 3. Make sure your pkg database doesn't register the meeded file as installed. The following command may give some info: - % grep filename /var/db/pkg/p5-*/+CONTENTS - 4. Compare an output of the command make all-depends-list at both systems for the mrtg port. 5. Not using make clean may give one a trouble. Ex., someone deletted a port by a pkg_delete command but $WRKDIR contains a flag that this port had been installed -- here is a problem! 6. Examine configure.log file for the mrtg port to find out what this port is looking for to determine an existance of the needed port. My customer got a problem after cancelling a port installation at a middle of the process: header files were installed but libraries were not and a port was not registered at a pkg database. But those header files were used by other port's Makefiles to detect if a port is installed...

Internal, if you were not running a split-horizon DNS setup would be to use network.local or simply local for the effect of workstation1.freebsd.local or workstation1.local. therefore if for some strange reason it ever did get the FQDN outside the local network, nothing would be able to resolve it to make it an issue since there is no TLD of .Local on the internet but could easily be added to an internal DNS server for personal use. -Sean ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Ok, cracked it. ccache will dump core, if the argument list 255 arguments,
most likely because the page size is 2048 bytes, but I'm guessing here. What
happens in x_realloc is that it wants to copy the 2048+8 from the old pointer
to the new, yet the old pointer is only 2040 bytes big.
I think it goes ok, till 2048, because 2048 is allocated regardless. You won't
see this on 32-bits, because you don't hit this size as the pointer size is
only 4 bytes. Most likely, you will hit this bug with argument list 510
arguments.
The patch inlined below my sig will fix the problem. I'll file a PR so that
ahze@ can fix it properly. Save it
as /usr/ports/devel/ccache/files/patch-args.c and reinstall ccache.

Re: Wrong Build Environment

The broken system is newer and the net-snmp5x port there is net-snmp5.3x so I installed that. It did lots of things to perl5.8 but when done, I still had the same problem of wrong files in /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8. The make all-depends-list output from both systems was identical. Finally, more out of frustration than logical procedure, I got an un-updated port of mrtg whose Makefile was dated in 2007. Next, I went to the broken system and for the ten-thousandth time, did make deinstall. A ls -l of /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 verified that mrtg-related files were gone. I then did rm -r on the mrtg port I had been building with and un-tar'd the older mrtg port. make install ran and low and behold, the 5.8 directory in /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl now had the proper list of files. I then put back the newer port of mrtg whose Makefile is dated in June, did a make deinstall and make install cycle and expected to see the problem again. Instead, the perl library changes, most likely based upon the installation of the proper net-snmp package survived and all now appears to be well. Thanks to everybody who helped.

Wow. That's a really complicated way to say
#! /bin/sh
nc $1 $2
It's also ugly (and very old-fashioned) Perl. Starting at (and
replacing) the
require 'sys/socket.ph' line (which is Perl 4, I think), it
should look more
like this (with appropriate error-checking added):
use Socket;
my $proto = getprotobyname('tcp');
socket(my $socket, PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, $proto);
my $sock_in = sockaddr_in($printer_port, inet_aton($printer_host));
connect($socket, $sock_in);
Although this rewrite removes the need, if you want in general to
ignore some
of the return values of a function returning a list, the usual way is to
assign to undef:
(undef, undef, undef, undef, $address) = gethostbyname($printer_host);
Although when you're throwing away that many, it makes more sense
to index the
returned list in the same way you would index an array:
$address = (gethostbyname($printer_host))[4] # returns 5th element
I really should submit a doc patch for this (incorporating Dan's sterling
suggestion of nc $1 $2).
Jonathan,
Submit a patch but rewrite the script as well as include use of
the nc utility.
It is important that when possible the handbook contain solutions
that are portable to other UNIX variants. Everything in the handbook
is indexed in search engines and we want people looking for solutions
to be able to use the Handbook, this can help them get interested
in FreeBSD.

Cutting off the original generation of the emails being spoofed is more to the point. You may want to look at SPF (openspf.org). If your domain is listed with an spf entry in DNS, you become less tempting as a domain to spoof. Over time, it will all but cease. Once you've created an SPF DNS record, many servers receiving mail spoofed for your domain will begin to drop it rather than backscatter emails back to your server. You should study the information on their site but in a nutshell, you create a TXT record in DNS that lists your servers IP as the only valid machine to send mail for your domain. This tells the others to drop emails from other IPs using your domain.

see if stuff needs to be rebuilt. It will only rebuild libssh and anything
that uses libssh:

The Walls of Auschwitz
The Walls of Auschwitz A Review of the Chemical Studies by Nicholas Kollerstrom, PhD In his essay, Dr Nicholas Kollerstrom argues that the alleged massacre of Jewish people by gassing during World War II was scientifically impossible. The distinguished academic was dismissed on April 22, 2008 without any explanation and a Holocaust conference held on 16-18 May in Berlin refused his article and warned that he would be arrested if he attended the conference and presented his essay. The West punishes people for their scientific research on Holocaust but the same western countries allow insults to prophets and religious beliefs I. The Leuchter Report, 1988 In February 1988, Fred Leuchter came to the Auschwitz crematoria ruins, with his wife and a team, and took 32 samples chiseled out of the wall. His Report published in April of 1998 contained five maps as appendices which indicated where the samples had been taken from, and in addition a film was made of his sampling'. The locations are important, because some of the 'gas chamber' locations are postwar-reconstructed, and the obtaining of original brickwork was essential for his purpose. Leuchter in effect tested the hypothesis, as to whether or not certain large rooms, designated in the Auschwitz design-plans as either morgues or washrooms, had in fact been used for large-scale human cyanide gassing on a daily and lethal basis. As America's only professional cyanide-gas execution expert, Leuchter was primarily concerned with whether it would have been feasible to perform such executions using the designated rooms; this however will not concern us here, our concern being solely with the wall samples he took. These were analyzed in March 1988 by Alpha Analytical Laboratories Ltd, in ignorance of their source. He managed to take one one sample of a 'Disinfestation Chamber,' by breaking and entering a locked building: but prowling guards and snowy blizzards prevented further sampling from a second such chamber at camp Majdanek . His swiftly-published 'Report' in effect grouped his data into two, that of the sample 32 which he called perhaps unfortunately his 'control,' and all the others, as the graph shows. The latter came from five 'Crematoria' sites in the Auschwitz complex. Duality of the 'Gas Chamber' concept in Leuchter's Report The terms that will here be used, that are as far as possible non-judgmental, are AHGCs or alleged human gas chambers for what Leuchter called 'Crematoria' and DCs or disinfestation chambers for what in the German design-plans were called 'gas chambers' (gaskammers). The latter had been used in Germany since 1924, much as we would ?nowadays use DDT, for killing the flea that carried the typhus bacillus. They were operated using 'Zyklon-B' granules, composed of liquid hydrogen cyanide (boiling-point 27° C) that would evaporate over a couple of hours from its clay substrate. In the German labor-camps, clothing and bedding were repeatedly fumigated in such chambers. Prior to Leuchter's work, pro - Holocaust books had not acknowledged such chambers, and had rather carried the message of the Nuremberg trials, whereby any use of Zyklon-B was merely presumed to have been for human extermination. After Leuchter, Pressac's magnum opus reproducing design-plans of Auschwitz-Birkenau located and described the 'Gaskammer' or DCs . These were quite a lot smaller than the AHGCs, and designed by the industrial-chemistry firm 'Degesh.' Pressac also observed that their walls tended to be blue: they had gradually developed that hue after the War, owing to their saturation with iron-cyanide. Fred Leuchter found one thousand -fold difference in residual cyanide levels between these two types of 'gas chamber' - that designated in German design-plans as gas chambers but whose existence was ignored at Nuremberg, and the much larger rooms alleged to have functioned as gas chambers. Together with Pressac's acknowledgement of the DCs, this meant that all future pro-Holocaust books had to work with a duality: that the very same cans of ' Zyklon-B' were used for two extremely different purposes on the same campsite: for taking lives via the extermination procedure, whereby millions died, in the extraordinary manner described at Nuremberg, and also for saving them by combating the typhus epidemic. This did not make a great deal of sense and some noted that one could more readily have not bothered and just let the typhus epidemic do its work. There was controversy over the extent to which all of Leuchter's samples had indeed been taken from walls of chambers allegedly exposed to the cyanide, given that much of the 'gas chambers' are now acknowledged to be postwar-reconstructed; as likewise there was disagreement over the extent to which exposed walls may have had any cyanide leeched out from them over six decades, a theme we return later on with the work of Mr Dan Desjardins.

mount_unionfs for jails
Using freebsd 7.0-release, I am trying to use unionfs to simplify my jail setup. Here is what I am trying to do: mount_unionfs -o below /usr/jails/basejail /usr/jail/jail1 after I do that I edit /usr/jail/jail1/etc/rc.conf and add the appropriate entries to the host system rc.conf, but when I start the jail it starts using the settings from /usr/jails/basejail.

Re: ccache on amd64
Ok, cracked it. ccache will dump core, if the argument list 255 arguments, most likely because the page size is 2048 bytes, but I'm guessing here. What happens in x_realloc is that it wants to copy the 2048+8 from the old pointer to the new, yet the old pointer is only 2040 bytes big. I think it goes ok, till 2048, because 2048 is allocated regardless. You won't see this on 32-bits, because you don't hit this size as the pointer size is only 4 bytes. Most likely, you will hit this bug with argument list 510 arguments. The patch inlined below my sig will fix the problem. I'll file a PR so that ahze@ can fix it properly.

Have you turned off the seeded variable? You'll fall back to a

kern.random.sys.seeded is just a flag that gets set to 1 on each

anything very useful.

I have the same setup and it works for me. Is my mount_unionfs syntax wrong, is this a bug in unionfs (man page says unionfs is broken, but doesn't specify how its broken) or is this expected behavior? It shouldn't be wrong. I have this in my fstab: /jail/base /jail/spl/nejcspl unionfs rw,noatime,below 0 0 (noatime option is completely optional, of course.) But, if I were you, I would update the RELEASE to STABLE. This will also fix some bugs in unionfs. However at least some other bugs still aren't fixed in 7-STABLE to this day (most notably the socket bug, which prevents mysql from running in a jail and writing socket file to /tmp/mysql.sock), so we had to MFC the patch from HEAD manually. If you need the patch, let me know. However, I don't suggest running jails on top of unionfs where you need decent stability (i.e. in production). I am writing thesis at the moment which also covers this topic. We also stumbled upon these issues: - socket file bug, mentioned before, still present in 7-STABLE, no ideas when it will be MFCed; - mv bug (see freebsd-fs archives for August 2008, me and my friend posted a few posts there) which causes troubles when moving directories (files would appear as gone and then reappear again) which exist or don't exist on lower and upper levels; - another mv bug which I discovered yesterday and seems to be very strange and hard to replay - I didn't even mess with the lower level, it seems that also just the upper layer can behave strangely sometimes (erros like mv: invalid argument when simply trying to move a big (10 GB) directory - the error was gone after I restarted the jail (i.e. also remounting the unionfs); - strange behaviour of some applications (apache in my case) not seeing the lower layer (/etc/hosts most notably) - we had to do touch (and then copy to all jails on change) on files we _really_ need to be visible. However, after we fscked our partition with unionfs directories, we weren't able to reproduce this error; - UFS filesystem would get to inconsistent state (we don't know exactly when) so some commands would behave strangely and fsck (see above) is needed in single user mode; - _most notably_: there hasn't been a single reply to our unionfs related problem reports and posts to freebsd-fs list. So I guess that people who are in charge for unionfs in FreeBSD aren't really responsive and that the future of unionfs in FreeBSD isn't really bright. It's a pity, though, since this is a very useful feature, especially for jailed systems. However, hope remains, that things will be fixed at least in 8.0 if not in 7.1. So, you can see that there are (still) many issues with unionfs on FreeBSD. Please let me know if you are able to solve your problem.

Re: mount_unionfs for jails
Hello, Well, it turns out that my problem was due to a typo in my host systems rc.conf. Thought so. Do you know if there is a way to reset the unionfs? I did notice this: It is called whiteout. When you delete the file which is on lower layer in unionfs, you actually create a file of type whiteout on the upper layer, which tells you that the file is not there. So it is a mark for a deleted file. To reset it, you just need to delete the whiteout. You can do this via rm -W. Actually whiteouts seem to be a nice solution but sometimes you'll run into interesting problems. When you try to upgrade jails, for example. Also, the problem is, because very few programs support whiteouts, for example find utility doesn't know about them, so you have to reimplement it (we made a shell script).

NATD Reverse Proxy
Hi, I'm trying to build a server that will act as a gateway between my wireless network and the rest of the world. Here's an overview of the current setup: 1. FreeBSD 7.1 2. isc-dhcp3-server-3.0.5_2 3. natd configured to connect fxp0 (public network, dynamic IP) to fxp1 (private network, static IP) 4. ipfw 5. bind 6. apache 2.2 7. php 5.2.6 Right now, when someone connects to the private net, they get an IP address and can connect to the Internet no problemo. So, this is all working so far. What I'd like to do next is this: When someone obtains an IP address, I'm going to configure DHCP to block that IP using IPFW initially, and I'd like to redirect any requests that come from that IP to port 80 or 443 to be silently redirected to the local Apache installation, where the user can enter their login and password. Once they've been authenticated, the firewall will allow them to connect out to everywhere else. So, it seems to me that I need to use natd again to do a silent proxy of traffic from certain IPs on the private net to the server box. But, since I'm already using natd, I'm a little perplexed about how to set this up. Do I need to run a second instance of natd on a different port, and then update the firewall rules to divert to one or the other based on the user's authentication status? Or can this all be configured in one natd instance?

X server crashes on exit
Hi, I installed 7.0 from the CD with X. Now this is the first time I ever used FreeBSD or X, I know a bit from linux but I usually use command line only. So when the system finished installing I logged in and typed startx. First time it took over 2 mins (is this normal) but eventually worked, and loaded 3 green terminals and a small clock in the corner. I don't know what this is and the mouse was not working so I tried to exit with the ctrl+alt+backspace but screen went black and the entire system hung - I know this as my remote session aborted and the keyboard led stopped responding too - still no response after 30 mins. I realise that i need a window manager so I tried to install gnome from CD. However it is the same problem and the system hung when I tried to quit back to command line mode. After hours on google I found how to fix the mouse and decide to try building fluxbox wm from the ports. Before starting the X, I ran Xorg -configure and echo exec startfluxbox .xinitrc. So now it starts up properly and works well but still I cannot exit the X. This is a big problem because the machine has no case so I must bend down and touch the reset pins with a penknife :P Also as the disks are not unmounted there are errors and one of the times my user account was deleted, so I had to reinstall the whole system. As I said I have never configure or install an X windows system before, and I was googling for ages. Could anyone give me some idea of how to diagnose and fix this problem?

Re: X server crashes on exit
No, a 2 minute startup of Xorg is not normal. What kind of video card? Do you have the proper drivers for your video card installed? I've noticed on several flavors of Linux with my particular card (nVidia Geforce 8600 or something) that if I do not have the correct nVidia drivers, exiting X results in a system lockup. -- Glen Barber ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: X server crashes on exit
I should note on my last message, that I specified Linux because some don't install the proper drivers by default. With FreeBSD + Xserver on this box, it was always a habit for me to compile the drivers -- so I never noticed if I would experience this undesired behavior in *BSD. -- Glen Barber ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
