fetchmail/sendmail: Domain of sender address does not exist
I'm running sendmail, and using fetchmail to fetch my mail from the university IMAP server. I sometimes see fetchmail complain: fetchmail: SMTP error: 553 5.1.8 ad...@system.mail...

process eating up all memory - what should happen next?
I have a process that eats up al memory, in my case science/paraview if I try to analyse a large model. What should FreeBSD do when a process tries to use all RAM or more? I my case I get a complete freeze, can't even login from the console, and requiring a cold reboot. I guess this is not supposed to happen, but what is supposed to happen in situations like this? This is on ia64, so it might be something to do with instability there.

Reccording from a webcam
Hi, I have a machine running FreeBSD 6.4. I can hardly upgrade it because it is more or less an embeded system. Until recently I was reccording video through a video graber card (brooktree I think), with mencoder, but the card died. The easiest way would be to use a USB camera; I plugged one in and it came as /dev/ugen0. When I try to use mplayer, it tells me that the driver v4l2 does not exist, nor v4l. Current version of mplayer/mencoder is 1.0rc2-3.4.6, I tried to compile the latest version, but I have issue with the Makefile in the ports. So the question is, what else could I use to record a video (command line).

I think you hit a bug on ia64. Could you test the behavior using the above program and report back? I would run top in one terminal(so i can monitor and kill the program) and I would use a second terminal to run the program using increasingly larger values.

gjournal for hosting server
Hello! I am setting up a new hosting server which will host about 100 sites and mysql databases for them. I've read about gjournal and as i see the following benefits: 1) NO fsck after crash 2) 2x speed for small files writes 3) Some extra speed for small files reads (why???) The web servers are mostly serving tons of small files and do tons of small writes. I thinks the all in all with gjournal the fs speed should be higher. Any thoughts?

All disks were sliced the same with gpart (da(n)p1,p2,p3) with bootcode written to index 1, swap on index 2 and freebsd-zfs on index 3. Given this configuration, I should be able to boot from any of the 6 disks in the RAIDZ. If this is a true statement, how do I make that happen from the loader prompt? You don't boot from an individual disk you boot from a zpool - all disks are linked together making one zpool disk. Something has to pick a physical device from which to boot, does it not?. All the HP Smart Array 6i controller knows is I have 6 RAID 0 disks to present to the OS. I meant to add if the bootcode is installed on each disk then pointing the bios to any individual disk as the primary boot device will lead to the boot process loading the zpool. Installing it on each disk gives the redundancy to match the raid in the zpool. If you only have one disk with bootcode and it is the one that needs replacing then you can't boot. Then having 100 disks in a pool with bootcode would be overkill, but the consistency may be easier to maintain. So in my case, the HP SmartArray doesn't allow me to choose an individual boot disk. So it's up to the controller to keep trying to boot from the next configured disk. I believe I'm going to craft a test to prove this out. I've had issues with this RAID controller in the past where it won't present the new disk to the OS. I've had to reboot, go into the RAID config and tell it it's a single RAID 0 device (stupid, I know). When you think about it, as a raid controller it shouldn't make assumptions as to how to use the new disk, should it add it to an existing raid set, replace a missing drive or show it as a new single drive? Being able to specify per socket as permanently jbod could be useful feature though. One would think. I've been testing this on a similarly configured machine and the controller eventually presents a new drive to the OS. It takes a couple of minutes, but appears to work on this test box. The roll of /boot/zfs/zpool.cache is a mystery to me. I belive it somehow tells ZFS what devices are in use. What if a disk goes offline or is removed? As I understand it the zpool.cache contains the zpools mounted by the system. After reboot it then re-imports each zpool in the cache. I believe a recent commit enabled the vfs.root.mountfrom zpool to be imported even if there was no cache available. From what I have heard and seen the data about the zpool it belongs to and the role the disk plays in the zpool is stored on each disk and duplicated at the beginning and end of the disk. In my early experiments after starting clean even after gparting and zeroing out the start of the disks, zpool still says it belongs to a pool. If that's the case, I wonder about the wisdom of re-using a drive from my test configuration? My plan has been to prove this out on test and use the same disk from test and insert it into production. One would think ZFS is smart enough to recognize a different drive has been inserted, even if it has the same gpart structure and came from a pool with the same name.

How to mount enhanced-CD on 9.1R?
Hi! I think I've found a regression on 9.1R. I used to mount some of Oxford University Press's New English File CD-ROM on 9.0. These CD-s are actually enhanced CDs with some audio tracks, and a data track at the end. Actually, I cannot mount them on 9.1. Neither on Amd64 nor on i386.

They give me the same nubmber as the sector number of the data track, but mount_cdrom doesn't work with it.

Revisiting Traceroute Through ipfw FreeBSD9.x
I immediately found several plausible examples of what to put in the firewall rules file and the following rules were set just after the local loopback address: ip=139.78.2.13 setup_loopback # Allow traceroute to function, but not to get in. ${fwcmd} add unreach port udp from any to ${ip} 33435-33524 # Allow some inbound icmps - echo reply, dest unreach, source quench, # echo, ttl exceeded. ${fwcmd} add allow icmp from any to any icmptypes 0,3,4,8,11 My thanks to previous posters for these rules. I still, however only get *traceroute: sendto: Permission denied traceroute: wrote 192.168.1.125 52 chars, ret=-1 I also did try: sysctl net.inet.udp.blackhole=0 then 1 and even 2 with no change. What else should I look at? The firewall rules are otherwise working as they should. Thank you.

Re: How to connect to VPN
2013. március 5. 23:44 napon Любомир Григоров nm.kn...@gmail.com írta: I have been trying to find a way to connect to a PPTP or L2TP VPN for over a year now. There is no GUI client that I know of and any text configuration I try with pptpclient fails. How can I connect to a VPN, the fast way as in Windows, OS X and GNU/Linux. I have the following information (no internal IP's or ranges or NAT): Gateway - I have the URL to connect to, I suppose I can map it to IP Username Password MSCHAP MSCHAPv2 Use point-to-point encryption (MPPE) Allow BSD data compression Allow deflate data compression Use TCP header compression How can I connect to the VPN with just this information above? Everything I find requires internal IP's, ranges, NAT and other things making a 5 second gui configuration take months. The VPN server supports PPTP and L2TP as mentioned. Any advice on how I can connect will be helpful. Hello: I too had problems with vpn in FreeBSD 9.0 RELEASE. I don't know specifically about PPTP or L2TP, but there is vpn over ipsec. Fot that you need to customize and rebuild your kernel. FreeBSD handbook says: To add IPsec support to your kernel, add the following options to your kernel configuration file: options IPSEC#IP security devicecrypto see: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/ipsec.html After this install shrew vpn client. Once more, I don't know whether this is relevant in any way in your case but that's how I solved vpn to cisco server earlier.

Re: no 9.1-release packages?

This however does not work as there is no directory packages-9.1-release on the ftp server (ftp.freebsd.org). Why is this? There was a security issue and therefor there are no packages for 9.1 Due to the security incident reported here: http://www.FreeBSD.org/news/2012-compromise.html only the small third-party package set on the DVD image is available at this time for users who require pre-built packages (just GNOME and KDE windowing systems). The FreeBSD Project's package building infrastructure is undergoing a complete review and redesign. At this time we can not commit to a date the full release package set will become available. A separate announcement will be made when that becomes available. If you wish to install 9.1-RELEASE now you can build your own packages using portsnap(8) to obtain an up to date ports tree and then build the packages. If you require pre-built packages you should wait for the announcement of the full release package set becoming available. FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE can also be purchased on CD-ROM or DVD from several vendors. One of the vendors that will be offering FreeBSD 9.1-based products is: Thanks for the info Johan. I was aware of the compromise, just not of it still affecting the package building for 9.1 release. No problem, there's no absolute requirement for pre-build packages here, so I installed some tools from packages-9-stable by setting PACKAGESITE and building the rest now from ports. cheers, Ruben ___ 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

I think it would be interesting to those running into similar problems. I remember that in the end, my clever solution involved logging into the ugly webmailer of my ISP and deleting the few offending messages manually. It should be easier than that. :-) Thanks in advance. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ 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
