Ports overlay
Hi! By necessity and convenience, I have developed a series of additions and changes to the ports tree. These changes are probably not worthy of inclusion into the official tree, so I'm looking to maintain an overlay, of sorts, in the spirit of Gentoo's overlay capability. Is there an official method of hooking changes into a ports tree, while maintaining the ability to csup or portsnap the unmodified version? How do others tackle this particular problem?

I don't know if there is any official method, but the method I use to keep local changes in the ports tree is as follows: I use cvsup to maintain a local copy of the whole repository, and then use cvs to checkout/update the ports tree from that copy of the repository. cvs knows how to detect and keep local changes. The disadvantage of this method is that updating the ports tree will be slower. The advantage is much increased flexibility in maintaining local changes or checking the history of any file. -- Insert your favourite quote here.

Yes, you can add your own local ports or even whole categories of local
ports without too much difficulty. You can even add some tweaks to an
existing port -- you don't have complete freedom to do anything there,
but you can do quite a lot.
If you create a Makefile.local at any level in the ports tree it will be
included alongside the usual Makefile. This means you can override a
lot of the available settings at will.
So, if you create /usr/ports/Makefile.local
with the contents:
SUBDIR+=myports
then you can create a directory /usr/ports/myports and put your own
ports inside it -- you'll need a /usr/ports/myports/Makefile just like
the other category directories.
Similarly, if you prefer to mix your own stuff more intimately with the
rest of the ports tree, you could create /usr/ports/devel/Makefile.local
with the contents:
SUBDIR+=myfunkyport
SUBDIR+=myotherport
and then create /usr/ports/devel/{myfunkyport,myotherport}
Finally, you can put a Makefile.local into a port directory, and use it
to override settings specific to that port. This is probably not very
useful except in limited circumstances. Another handy thing to do is
create eg. file/patch-foo to contain local patches against the upstream
sources.
Makefile.local is intended for local customizations like this, but there
are also Makefile.inc and Makefile.${ARCH}, Makefile.${OPSYS},
Makefile.${OPSYS}-${ARCH} which will similarly be automatically included
if present (and if the ARCH and OPSYS settings match.)
Now, all of this is at risk of clashing with future updates to the ports
tree -- you're going to have to maintain it yourself, and cope with
ports being deleted or moved around. Creating your own separate
category as shown first will give you the best separation and probably
the least maintenance hassles.
If you want to modify an existing port, probably the best approach is to
create your own slave port -- see the docco on MASTERDIR in the Porter's
Handbook and look at eg. games/freeciv-nox11 for about the simplest
possible example. It's not fool proof -- some modifications will always
need support in the master port's Makefile, but there's a lot you can do
without that.
Because this entails inserting files into the ports tree, you need to
take some thought as to how to avoid wiping out your changes when
updating the ports tree. Extra files are generally ignored by csup(1),
but portsnap(1) will blow them away. You could get creative using
unionfs (see mount_unionfs(8)) or you could go for the option of
maintaining a local CVS repository with your mods on a separate branch.
Cheers,
Matthew

Introduction
Hi, I'm an Austrian sysadmin living in Montpezat (South France). I'm 100% GNU/Linux since 2001, I started out with Slackware 7.1, then after a few years of using Slackware and Debian, I moved to CentOS in 2006, a clone of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. I'm running a one-man computer company (Microlinux: http://www.microlinux.fr) spezialized in computer solutions based on GNU/Linux and FOSS. Up until now, I never gave FreeBSD a try, but sometimes I used to stumble over the documentation, and I always thought: heck, this is how an operating system should be documented. I even went so far as to be almost jealous of the handbook, and wishing there was something similar for Linux (so I went and even wrote one: http://tinyurl.com/no254g) But a few days ago I decided to take the plunge. No, not migrate all my machines to FreeBSD. But I have two old NEC PowerMates in my office, for teaching and testing purposes, and I decided to download FreeBSD 8.0, do a lot of RTFM and just play with it and see if I can make it do all the things I'm doing with Linux (and maybe more). More recently, I've been attracted by the more centralized (and way less chaotic) development model of FreeBSD. So far, after reading chapters 1 to 5 from the fine Handbook, I managed to install FreeBSD, configure X11 and install XFCE. This all raised a few questions, so I thought my next move would be to say hello in this list and ask my questions here, very soon.

Configure X: multiple keyboard layouts ?
Hi, I'd like to configure X for multiple keyboard layouts, e. g.: - french - swiss french - german On my Linux box (running CentOS 5.4 and a dated version of X.org), the configuration for this looks like this : Section InputDevice Identifier Keyboard0 Driver kbd Option XkbModel pc105 Option XkbLayout fr,ch,de Option XkbVariant ,fr, Option XkbOptions grp:alt_shift_toggle EndSection This stanza enables me to toggle between different keyboard layouts, using the [Alt]+[RightShift] key combination. You might wonder about the XkbVariant option: the swiss keyboard layout has two variants: fr and de. This is to indicate the swiss roman layout. Now is there any way I could achieve a similar thing with the more recent X.org shipping with FreeBSD 8.0 ? Any suggestions ?

Re: Updating ports was Flash viewer for FBSD

I read the handbook. There are 2 choices i.e. portmanager and portmaster. I am now thinking which one is better. I must also check time and disk space required to build all these ports. Personally, I prefer portmanager. I would suggest that you empty your /usr/ports/distfiles directory entirely. If you have java installed, download the source files needed to build it and place them in the that directory. Update your entire ports tree and then run: portmanager -u -l -y -f That will rebuild your entire ports system in the correct order. Depending on the speed of your system and number of ports installed, that might take a day, give or take a few hours. I would shutdown 'X' prior to doing the update also. When done, reboot and all should be well. I have done it before with great success. BTW, you might also want to set: BATCH=yes sans quotation marks in your /etc/make.conf file. It will eliminate those pesky pop-up messages concerning configuring the port(s). -- Jerry ges...@yahoo.com |=== |=== |=== |=== | If you lose a son you can always get another, but there's only one Maltese Falcon.

freebsd-update on a 8.0 rootzfs system
Hello folks I have a 8.0 system that uses zfsroot and gptzfsboot. It uses the GENERIC kernel and the only thing that had to be manually recompiled is obviously the bootloader, to enable zfs boot support, other then that, the system is using stock 8.0 binaries. Since fully rebuilding world and kernel on this system is a 5 hour process, I would very much like to use freebsd-update and I wanted someone to clarify the utility's behaviour. If I run freebsd-update on this system, what will it do when it detects that the bootloader binaries do not match those of stock 8.0-RELEASE? Will it: 1) Ignore the changed/recompiled bootloader files completely, only updating the binaries whose checksums it can recognize. This behaviour is alright for updating within 8.0, updating for release errata, but would cause some problems updating to 8.1 and further, since 8.1 will have zfs capable bootloader by default and having freebsd-update always completely ignore a system component that has once been recompiled sounds a bit silly. 2) Happily update the system, overwrite my custom compiled bootloader, forcing me to manually rebuild the bootloader again before I reboot the system. This I guess would actually be the desired behaviour. - Sincerely, Dan Naumov ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Go to ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/mailing-lists/archive/
where you
can download weekly gzipped archives of all the mailing lists since
their
creation.
thanks for the hint, but it would take hours to download all those gzipped
files, extract them and merge them.
i really need ALL the messages of a mailinglist. of course i could use the
gzipped files you mentioned if i had some script for downloading extracting
and merging all those files for me.
It's relatively easy to hack one.
You can get a list of year names from the /archive/ directory itself
with curl(1) and a small amount of Python plumbing around curl:
from subprocess import Popen as popen, PIPE
import re
yre = re.compile('^d.*\s(\d+)$')
devnull = file(/dev/null)
def years():
... curl = curl -o /dev/stdout
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/mailing-lists/archive/;
... ylist = []
... for line in popen(curl, shell=True, stdout=PIPE,
stderr=devnull).stdout.readlines():
... m = yre.match(line)
... if m:
... ylist.append(int(m.group(1)))
... return ylist
...
years()
[1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005,
2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010]
Then you can grab a list of the freebsd-current archives by looping
through the list of years and looking for the list of files that match
the pattern:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/mailing-lists/archive/{year}/freebsd-current/(\d+.freebsd-current.gz)
Using a pipe to parse the output of curl you can collect a list of all
the files that match this pattern, e.g.:
def yearfiles(year):
... base =
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/mailing-lists/archive/%4d/freebsd-current;
% year
... curl = curl -o /dev/stdout %s/ % base
... flist = []
... fre = re.compile(r'^.*\D(\d+.freebsd-current.gz).*$')
... for line in popen(curl, shell=True, stdout=PIPE,
stderr=devnull).stdout.readlines():
... m = fre.match(line)
... if m:
... flist.append(%s/%s % (base, m.group(1)))
... return flist
...
yearfiles(1994)
[]
yearfiles(1995)
['ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/mailing-lists/archive/1995/freebsd-current/1.freebsd-current.gz',
...]
Concatenating the file lists of all years and fetching each one of them
with curl is then trivial:
ylist = years()
ylist
[1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005,
2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010]
flist = []
for y in ylist:
... f = yearfiles(y)
... flist = flist + f
...
len(flist)
785
Once you have the list of all the remote gzipped files, you can loop
through the list of files once more and fetch them locally. I'm only
going to fetch the first two files here, but feel free to fetch all of
them in your version of the script:
flist = flist[:2]
flist
['ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/mailing-lists/archive/1995/freebsd-current/19950101.freebsd-current.gz',
'ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/mailing-lists/archive/1995/freebsd-current/19950226.freebsd-current.gz']
from subprocess import call
def getfile(url):
... out = os.path.basename(url)
... retcode = call([curl, -o, out, url], stderr=devnull)
... if retcode == 0:
... print fetched %s % url
... return tuple([url, out, retcode])
...
map(getfile, flist)

but lacks LOTS of error checking is the following:
#!/usr/bin/env python

The problem is that some plugins did not offer the startup entries that gnome (glib) wants. so FreeBSD tries to resolv the entry using dlsym(...) and search the entire user address space for that... a simple patch for the plugins and e-util/e-plugin.c module solved the problem and now evolution starts in 3 seconds... follow is the base64 encode of the patch to use, save the patch, say: evolution.fix extract with b64decode evolution.fix, move the file to: /usr/ports/mail/evolution/files, build evolution with: cd /usr/ports/mail/evolution;make reinstall *cut* begin-base64 644 patch-plugins LS0tIHBsdWdpbnMvZ3JvdXB3aXNlLWFjY291bnQtc2V0dXAvZ3JvdXB3aXNlLWFjY291bnQtc2V0 dXAuYy5vcmlnCTIwMDktMTItMTQgMDM6NTY6MDEuMDAwMDAwMDAwIC0wMjAwCisrKyBwbHVnaW5z L2dyb3Vwd2lzZS1hY2NvdW50LXNldHVwL2dyb3Vwd2lzZS1hY2NvdW50LXNldHVwLmMJMjAxMC0w My0wNyAwMTozOTo1MC42OTEwNDk2MDAgLTAzMDAKQEAgLTEzNiwzICsxMzYsMTEgQEAKIAogCXJl dHVybiBOVUxMOwogfQorCitjaGFyICpnX21vZHVsZV9jaGVja19pbml0KCkgeworCWdfd2Fybmlu ZygiJXMgIG9uICVzXG4iLF9fRlVOQ1RJT05fXyxfX0ZJTEVfXyk7cmV0dXJuIE5VTEw7Cit9CisK K2NoYXIgKmdfbW9kdWxlX3VubG9hZCAoKSB7CisJZ193YXJuaW5nKCIlcyAgb24gJXNcbiIsX19G VU5DVElPTl9fLF9fRklMRV9fKTtyZXR1cm4gTlVMTDsKK30KLS0tIHBsdWdpbnMvcHN0LWltcG9y dC9wc3QtaW1wb3J0ZXIuYy5vcmlnCTIwMDktMTItMTQgMDM6NTY6MDEuMDAwMDAwMDAwIC0wMjAw CisrKyBwbHVnaW5zL3BzdC1pbXBvcnQvcHN0LWltcG9ydGVyLmMJMjAxMC0wMy0wNiAyMjoyNDox My4xMzEzODMyNzkgLTAzMDAKQEAgLTE3MzksMyArMTczOSwxNiBAQAogCiAJcmV0dXJuIHJvb3Ru YW1lOwogfQorCitjaGFyICpnX21vZHVsZV9jaGVja19pbml0KCkgeworCWdfd2FybmluZygiJXMg IG9uICVzXG4iLF9fRlVOQ1RJT05fXyxfX0ZJTEVfXyk7cmV0dXJuIE5VTEw7Cit9CisKK2NoYXIg KmdfbW9kdWxlX3VubG9hZCAoKSB7CisJZ193YXJuaW5nKCIlcyAgb24gJXNcbiIsX19GVU5DVElP Tl9fLF9fRklMRV9fKTtyZXR1cm4gTlVMTDsKK30KKwordm9pZCAqZV9wbHVnaW5fbGliX2VuYWJs ZSgpIHsKKwlnX3dhcm5pbmcoIiVzIG9uICVzXG4iLF9fRlVOQ1RJT05fXywgX19GSUxFX18pOwor CXJldHVybiBOVUxMOworfQotLS0gcGx1Z2lucy9iYmRiL2JiZGIuYy5vcmlnCTIwMDktMTItMTQg MDM6NTY6MDEuMDAwMDAwMDAwIC0wMjAwCisrKyBwbHVnaW5zL2JiZGIvYmJkYi5jCTIwMTAtMDMt MDcgMDI6MDM6MTIuMTU0NjQ1NjcxIC0wMzAwCkBAIC03MTYsMyArNzE2LDExIEBACiAJZ19vYmpl Y3RfdW5yZWYgKHN0dWZmLT5zb3VyY2VfbGlzdCk7CiAJZ19mcmVlIChzdHVmZik7CiB9CisKK2No YXIgKmdfbW9kdWxlX2NoZWNrX2luaXQoKSB7CisJZ193YXJuaW5nKCIlcyAgb24gJXNcbiIsX19G VU5DVElPTl9fLF9fRklMRV9fKTtyZXR1cm4gTlVMTDsKK30KKworY2hhciAqZ19tb2R1bGVfdW5s b2FkICgpIHsKKwlnX3dhcm5pbmcoIiVzICBvbiAlc1xuIixfX0ZVTkNUSU9OX18sX19GSUxFX18p O3JldHVybiBOVUxMOworfQotLS0gcGx1Z2lucy9wdWJsaXNoLWNhbGVuZGFyL3B1Ymxpc2gtY2Fs ZW5kYXIuYy5vcmlnCTIwMDktMTItMTQgMDM6NTY6MDEuMDAwMDAwMDAwIC0wMjAwCisrKyBwbHVn aW5zL3B1Ymxpc2gtY2FsZW5kYXIvcHVibGlzaC1jYWxlbmRhci5jCTIwMTAtMDMtMDcgMDE6NTE6 MDEuMDczOTczNDA3IC0wMzAwCkBAIC05MjksMyArOTI5LDExIEBACiAJCWVycm9yX3F1ZXVlX3No b3dfaWRsZV9pZCA9IGdfaWRsZV9hZGQgKGVycm9yX3F1ZXVlX3Nob3dfaWRsZSwgTlVMTCk7CiAJ Z19zdGF0aWNfbXV0ZXhfdW5sb2NrICgmZXJyb3JfcXVldWVfbG9jayk7CiB9CisKK2NoYXIgKmdf bW9kdWxlX2NoZWNrX2luaXQoKSB7CisJZ193YXJuaW5nKCIlcyAgb24gJXNcbiIsX19GVU5DVElP Tl9fLF9fRklMRV9fKTtyZXR1cm4gTlVMTDsKK30KKworY2hhciAqZ19tb2R1bGVfdW5sb2FkICgp IHsKKwlnX3dhcm5pbmcoIiVzICBvbiAlc1xuIixfX0ZVTkNUSU9OX18sX19GSUxFX18pO3JldHVy biBOVUxMOworfQotLS0gcGx1Z2lucy9jYWxkYXYvY2FsZGF2LXNvdXJjZS5jLm9yaWcJMjAwOS0x Mi0xNCAwMzo1NjowMS4wMDAwMDAwMDAgLTAyMDAKKysrIHBsdWdpbnMvY2FsZGF2L2NhbGRhdi1z b3VyY2UuYwkyMDEwLTAzLTA3IDAxOjUyOjE1LjM1ODY2Mjk0MiAtMDMwMApAQCAtNDYyLDMgKzQ2 MiwxMSBAQAogCXJldHVybiB3aWRnZXQ7CiB9CiAKKworY2hhciAqZ19tb2R1bGVfY2hlY2tfaW5p dCgpIHsKKwlnX3dhcm5pbmcoIiVzICBvbiAlc1xuIixfX0ZVTkNUSU9OX18sX19GSUxFX18pO3Jl dHVybiBOVUxMOworfQorCitjaGFyICpnX21vZHVsZV91bmxvYWQgKCkgeworCWdfd2FybmluZygi JXMgIG9uICVzXG4iLF9fRlVOQ1RJT05fXyxfX0ZJTEVfXyk7cmV0dXJuIE5VTEw7Cit9Ci0tLSBw bHVnaW5zL2dvb2dsZS1hY2NvdW50LXNldHVwL2dvb2dsZS1zb3VyY2UuYy5vcmlnCTIwMDktMTIt MTQgMDM6NTY6MDEuMDAwMDAwMDAwIC0wMjAwCisrKyBwbHVnaW5zL2dvb2dsZS1hY2NvdW50LXNl dHVwL2dvb2dsZS1zb3VyY2UuYwkyMDEwLTAzLTA3IDAxOjU0OjQwLjU3NzU0NjM0NyAtMDMwMApA QCAtODM2LDMgKzgzNiwxMSBAQAogCWlmIChjaGFuZ2VkKQogCQllX3NvdXJjZV9saXN0X3N5bmMg KHNvdXJjZV9saXN0LCBOVUxMKTsKIH0KKworY2hhciAqZ19tb2R1bGVfY2hlY2tfaW5pdCgpIHsK KwlnX3dhcm5pbmcoIiVzICBvbiAlc1xuIixfX0ZVTkNUSU9OX18sX19GSUxFX18pO3JldHVybiBO VUxMOworfQorCitjaGFyICpnX21vZHVsZV91bmxvYWQgKCkgeworCWdfd2FybmluZygiJXMgIG9u ICVzXG4iLF9fRlVOQ1RJT05fXyxfX0ZJTEVfXyk7cmV0dXJuIE5VTEw7Cit9Ci0tLSBwbHVnaW5z L2F0dGFjaG1lbnQtcmVtaW5kZXIvYXR0YWNobWVudC1yZW1pbmRlci5jLm9yaWcJMjAwOS0xMi0x NCAwMzo1NjowMS4wMDAwMDAwMDAgLTAyMDAKKysrIHBsdWdpbnMvYXR0YWNobWVudC1yZW1pbmRl ci9hdHRhY2htZW50LXJlbWluZGVyLmMJMjAxMC0wMy0wNyAwMjoyMToyMi4yOTQ2NDQ0NzAgLTAz MDAKQEAgLTUzNCwzICs1MzQsMTEgQEAKIAogfQogCisKK2NoYXIgKmdfbW9kdWxlX2NoZWNrX2lu aXQoKSB7CisJZ193YXJuaW5nKCIlcyAgb24gJXNcbiIsX19GVU5DVElPTl9fLF9fRklMRV9fKTty

I have been, for a long time, been having problems with lockups of FreeBSD 8.0 when using USB hard disks. Sometimes certain applications lock up for several minutes, when they use the disk, file operations are very slow, and sometimes the entire operating system can lock up for several minutes. This can be a pretty painful thing and makes the system seem very unstable. I am using UFS filesystems on the disks. It seems to happen on multiple disks that i use. I was hopeful changes to the FreeBSD USB drivers might have improved things but they are as bad as ever. Help is appreciated. Are there perhaps diagnostic tools or an error log that can be enabled so I can see if maybe there is some sort of error occuring with the USB transmissions that might be causing this problem, or perhaps what part of the driver code it is getting locked up on?. Has anyone else experienced problems such as this with USB disks? If more information on my hardware is needed i will post dmesg output. Any help is appreciated. I have done some more thinking about this issue. Just an app freeze on USB access is one thing, however, the fact that the entire OS freezes up on access to the USB disk shows there are much more serious problems in the FreeBSD kernel. A USB access should not cause the kernel to lock up for minutes. these are very serious flaws in the FreeBSD kernel and lead to an instable and unuseable system. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org Your description about what is happening is lacking any detail. Tell us what is on the USB disk, How you are using it, How you created it ECT ECT ECT Booting your system from it is way different than writing small data files to it or containing a raid file system or some database. You have to help us help you. The USB disk is being used with 2 UFS filesystems on it. Due to the bad performance, it takes a long time to copy data to the disk. It seems as though there is a complete lock up periodically when doing a very large copy. The system becomes very unstable. Conditions worsen when two or three apps are using the disk at once, it seems. Often the entire OS can lock up for minutes when the disk is being used. I once tried to copy a 200 mb directory, it took 7 hours. Perhaps the developers of the USB system would like discuss this, so we can figure out what is going on.

Re: Configure X: multiple keyboard layouts ?

You might wonder about the XkbVariant option: the swiss keyboard layout has two variants: fr and de. This is to indicate the swiss roman layout. Now is there any way I could achieve a similar thing with the more recent X.org shipping with FreeBSD 8.0 ? Any suggestions ? Hi Niki, Welcome to FreeBSD! There is a way to achieve similar results with recent X.org. X nowadays can get by without an xorg.conf and by default it uses hald and dbus to configure keyboard, mouse etc. It's documented how you can create an xorg.conf and use that for device config rather than hald: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x-config.html You basically create an xorg.conf and then add: Option AutoAddDevices false to the ServerLayout section and then your keyboard config placed in your xorg.conf will be picked up. You will also need a section for the mouse along the lines of: Section InputDevice Identifier Mouse0 Driver mouse Option CorePointer Option Protocol auto Option Device /dev/sysmouse # Option Emulate3Buttons false Option ZAxisMapping 4 5 6 7# For scroll wheel EndSection It's parameters are dependent on your type of mouse. With that and xorg.conf placed under /etc/X11/ you should be good to go. But I'm quite sure you know that xorg.conf can be a fiddle ;) If you get stuck, post your xorg.conf BTW, if you haven't read it already the manpage for moused(8) is quite a revelation.

Re: Thousands of ssh probes

This is enough that I can actually feel it in my network performance. Other than changing ssh to a non-standard port - is there a way to deal with these? Every day, they originate from several different IP addresses, so I can't just put in a static firewall rule. Is there a way to get ssh to quit responding to a port or a way to generate a dynamic pf rule in cases like this? This is a frequent question on the list, search the archives. Basically there are few things that you can do: 1. limit the access to a range of IPs, for example, even if you travel a lot you go to al limited number of countries, why permit access from other continents? 2. limit access to certain users, there is no need to allow games or root user to authenticate via ssh. Use AllowUsers or AllowGroups to restrict access to real users. 3. limit the amount of concurrent non-authenticated connections, number of failed attempts and similar. 4. prohibit password authentication. If the problem is that these attacks consume significant bandwidth then moving your service to a different port may be a good solution, but if your concern is security, then the above is more effective.

[OT] ssh security
Greetings, I'm doing some research into ssh and its underlying cryptographic methods and I have questions. I don't know whom else to ask and humbly ask for forgiveness if I'm way OT. So, SSH uses algorithms like ssh-dss or ssh-rsa to do key exchange. These algorithms can defeat any attempts on eavesdropping, but cannot defeat man-in-the-middle attacks. To defeat them, some pre-shared information is needed - key fingerprint. If hypothetically someone uses instead of the plain text authentication some challenge-response scheme, based on user's password or even a hash of user's password would ssh be able to avoid the need the user to have key fingerprints of the server prior the first connection? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

The attacker doesn't really care which host is compromised any will do, and better yet someones home box as it is more difficult to trace him. In that case he will scan large ip-ranges for hosts listening on port 22. b. The attacker wants to gain control of a particular server. In that case he will scan all ports to see what services are running and determine which services are running on each port. In that case running ssh on a non-standard port is futile. However, I'm not really a fan of using non-standard ports for ssh, I don't believe it's the right solution to the problem: You have ssh access to the outside because people travel and need remote access. In that case they might find themselves under other security policies which block access to services deemed unnecessary. Running ssh on a non-standard port is likely to be blocked on the client network - unless you run on, say, port 80. The more uses you have, the more problems you will have running ssh on a non-standard port, the time you save checking your logs may easily be spent on end user support. OP referred to significant impact on bandwidth which I find difficult to believe. In case connections come from a single ip at a time then you should tweak LoginGraceTime, MaxAuthTries, MaxSessions to reduce the number of concurrent un-authenticate connections and slow down brute force attacks. Much better, restrict the client access to certain ranges of IPs. The different registries publish ip ranges assigned per country and you can create a list blocking countries you are certain not to visit, you can use my script: http://www.locolomo.org/pub/src/toolbox/inet.pl BR, Erik -- Erik Nørgaard Ph: +34.666334818/+34.915211157 http://www.locolomo.org ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Full Description
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
FreeBSD (tested back to 4.9-Release) (and OpenBSD 4.6) has a bug in its ftpd
when handling globbing requests.
My investigation results in this being a null pointer dereference in
popen.c.
I am not sure if this could be a heap overrun, but I don't think so.
from popen.c:
/* glob each piece */
gargv[0] = argv[0];
for (gargc = argc = 1; argv[argc] gargc (MAXGLOBARGS-1); argc++) {
glob_t gl;
int flags = GLOB_BRACE|GLOB_NOCHECK|GLOB_TILDE;
memset(gl, 0, sizeof(gl));
gl.gl_matchc = MAXGLOBARGS;
flags |= GLOB_LIMIT;
[1] if (glob(argv[argc], flags, NULL, gl))
gargv[gargc++] = strdup(argv[argc]);
[2] else
[3] for (pop = gl.gl_pathv; *pop gargc (MAXGLOBARGS-1);
pop++)
gargv[gargc++] = strdup(*pop);
globfree(gl);
}
At [1] glob() is called. if theres a long directory (for example A x 200)
and a request like described
in how to repeat this problem is sent to the ftpd it crashes. My
assumption is because it lands in the
else clause [2], glob doesn't fail but gives back a zeroed out gl structure.
In [3] then there's no check
if pop is null and therefore *pop gets dereferenced which is a null pointer
and the ftpd instance crashes.
Could someone please shed some light into why glob doesn't fail but gives a
zeroed out structure back?

hi there,
what are the steps i need to perform to get a copy of the entire

Go to ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/mailing-lists/archive/
where you
can download weekly gzipped archives of all the mailing lists
since
their
creation.
thanks for the hint, but it would take hours to download all those
gzipped
files, extract them and merge them.
i really need ALL the messages of a mailinglist. of course i could
use the
gzipped files you mentioned if i had some script for downloading
extracting
and merging all those files for me.
It's relatively easy to hack one.
wow!!! thanks a billion. that's a great script. i pointed the vars containing
ftp sites at mirrors near me which give me better download speed and will run
the script for freebsd-current@ this night (~850 archives to pull).
thanks again. great job. :-)

You can get a list of year names from the /archive/ directory itself
with curl(1) and a small amount of Python plumbing around curl:
from subprocess import Popen as popen, PIPE
import re
yre = re.compile('^d.*\s(\d+)$')
devnull = file(/dev/null)
def years():
... curl = curl -o /dev/stdout
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/mailing-lists/archive/;
... ylist = []
... for line in popen(curl, shell=True, stdout=PIPE,
stderr=devnull).stdout.readlines():
... m = yre.match(line)
... if m:
... ylist.append(int(m.group(1)))
... return ylist
...
years()
[1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003,
2004, 2005,
2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010]
Then you can grab a list of the freebsd-current archives by looping
through the list of years and looking for the list of files that
match
the pattern:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/mailing-lists/archive/{year}/freebsd-current/(\d+.freebsd-current.gz)
Using a pipe to parse the output of curl you can collect a list of
all
the files that match this pattern, e.g.:
def yearfiles(year):
... base =
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/mailing-lists/archive/%4d/freebsd-current;
% year
... curl = curl -o /dev/stdout %s/ % base
... flist = []
... fre = re.compile(r'^.*\D(\d+.freebsd-current.gz).*$')
... for line in popen(curl, shell=True, stdout=PIPE,
stderr=devnull).stdout.readlines():
... m = fre.match(line)
... if m:
... flist.append(%s/%s % (base, m.group(1)))
... return flist
...
yearfiles(1994)
[]
yearfiles(1995)
['ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/mailing-lists/archive/1995/freebsd-current/1.freebsd-current.gz',
...]
Concatenating the file lists of all years and fetching each one of
them
with curl is then trivial:
ylist = years()
ylist
[1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003,
2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010]
flist = []
for y in ylist:
... f = yearfiles(y)
... flist = flist + f
...
len(flist)
785
Once you have the list of all the remote gzipped files, you can loop
through the list of files once more and fetch them locally. I'm only
going to fetch the first two files here, but feel free to fetch all
of
them in your version of the script:
flist = flist[:2]
flist
['ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/mailing-lists/archive/1995/freebsd-current/19950101.freebsd-current.gz',
'ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/mailing-lists/archive/1995/freebsd-current/19950226.freebsd-current.gz']
from subprocess import call
def getfile(url):
... out = os.path.basename(url)
... retcode = call([curl, -o, out, url], stderr=devnull)
... if retcode == 0:
... print fetched %s % url
... return tuple([url, out, retcode])
