newfs on a SSD
After years of waiting for a decent price on one of these I finally got one. The questions is, which options should I use on a SSD that will be / on my system. I see that newfs supports TRIM, so that will be turned on, but should I use journaling? gjournal? softupdates? soft updates journaling? I'm confused :) -- chs, ___ 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

What is a partition? What is a slice. I have to look always into the handbook. Anyway, as long the OS see different units which have to be mounted independent of each other, it all does not matter what is what. I meant in Unix terms of course. Slice is slice (partition in other OS) and partition a thru h The question is if it has any advantage of using a slice to mount the basejail in RO as opposed to doing the same thing on a partition. The answer is: It it not possible. :-) You cannot mount a slice. Given the BSD terminology: A slice _has_ to contain partitions. You cannot format a slice, you can only format partitions. A formatted partition carries a UFS file system. (However, it's possible to omit the slice, and partition the whole disk instead, this is called dedicated mode). A third method is formatting the whole disk (the 'c' device), in that case the 'c' is omitted. The _only_ time you can mount a slice is when it is used in its common meaning, being a DOS primary partition; in this case, a FAT or NTFS file system will be placed directly into a slice, as those do not support any (BSD-style) partitioning. /dev/ad0 - the disk /dev/ad0s1 - 1st slice /dev/ad0s1a - 1st partition on 1st slice THIS is something you can mount. -or- /dev/ad0a - 1st partition on disk (dedicated) THIS can also be mounted. -or- /dev/ad0 - the whole disk (equals /dev/ad0c) Even THIS can be mounted. In case I'm misunderstanding your question, could you alter the expression? Thanks. The question was more advantages of a single slice + single partition versus a slice and multiple partitions, for mounting the EzJail basejail in RO mode. ___ 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

FreeBSD 8 . . . NetBSD 8 . . . OpenBSD 8 Page 8 of the fourth edition mentions various BSD Unix systems in the section Friction Between UNIX and Linux. Page 12's mention of BSD Unix in the fourth edition appears to correspond to page 3's un-indexed mention of FreeBSD in the third edition (specifically FreeBSD 3.4), in reference to the example Unix OSes they chose to use when discussing various OSes, though FreeBSD is not mentioned specifically in the fourth edition on that page and BSD Unix is largely referred to in a historical context. This appears to be a legitimate case of BSD Unix being phased out of part of the text as a relevant OS, but it is not a section that actually says anything of specific technical value. Pages 1268-1273 in the fourth edition correspond to the bulk of the section A Brief History of System Administration in the back of the book. The third edition's equivalent is the end of page 2 and a little over half of page 3, The Sordid History of UNIX. The fourth edition's index mentions jail, chroot which, when investigated in the text, has nothing at all to do with FreeBSD jails; it's just about chroot. The third edition also contains information about chroot, but does not mention it under the J section of the index. It looks to me like the fourth edition probably presents quite a bit more historical information particular to BSD Unix systems than the third edition, judging by the index. In the table of contents, I see that the third edition has a section set aside for BSD printing, despite lack of mention in the index. It looks like the table of contents section for BSD and AIX printing in the fourth edition (the first edition to include coverage of AIX, apparently) goes into a fair bit more detail about what's in the equivalent section. It looks to me, at a glance, like the fourth edition probably kept all of the BSD Unix related stuff from the third, probably updated slightly but not expanded outside of historical information. While a failure to expand technical information on BSD Unix systems would result in a reduction of the percentage of the book that covers BSD Unix technical matters, given the growth in size between third and fourth editions, the quantity of technical information about BSD Unix systems does not appear to have shrunk at all, from what I've seen. Of course, I might easily have overlooked something. Is there something else I should try to find in the index or table of contents that would be in the third edition but not the fourth?

question on SYN_SENT
it is my understanding that SYN_SENT is when MY SIDE sends out a request and is awaiting a reply? One of the jails we run for a customer had hundreds (if not thousands) of attempts to connect from the 147. address you see below. It was exhausting resources so that new tcp connections could not be made until some closed. I added that address to a pf block statement to stop it but now we get a rolling connections in a netstat -a as show below (host. being a generic name used in place of actual host on our side). I am wondering if this shows something on our side trying to connect out?
