Re: Let People Find You in Google!
Isn't this pure SPAM? Why yes it is. Would you prefer it mixed with non-spam to make it more palatable? Now, Now, I never expected to see sarcasm on this list:-) As far as I remember, this post wasn't the only incidence of SPAM that day, and so I'd have to agree with you. Until the Mods find a way to filter most spam (the list will perhaps forgive the odd oversight), people will call for more and more draconian measures that will not be really effective. One way is to make the list a members list where the members have to agree to a Code of Conduct or the Mods COULD bar them from participating, but it not the only way Lets have a non-heated debate about ways to reduce SPAM on the list in order to get some consensus, then put any proposal to all the existing list members. In other words, lets have some democracy when dealing with these thorny issues. ++ Graham Todd Email created using gNewSense Linux 3.0 and hardened with Liberté Linux 2012.3.

Re: Spam control (was: Let People Find You in Google!)
There has indeed been a higher spam:ham ratio on this list of late, however making it subscriber-only won't help. The crims need only spoof the address of someone subscribed to the list to bypass that, and I suspect a few spammers have registered using false addresses anyway (leading to a bounce to anyone posting). Piping it through Spamassassin as it arrives at mx1.freebsd.org, although this isn't so effective against people using freemail accounts. Closing down irresponsibly run freemail operators would be a big help, but it's not going to happen. If anyone wants to discuss this OFF LIST, I'm up for it. Regards, Frank.

ufs recovery
Hi, By mistake I forgot to edit my crontab on my FreeBSD 8.3 after I took out one of the hard drives. I had a little rsync script which I used to synchronise a directory between those two hard drives, because one of the hard drives were not present anymore and rsync had the --delete parameter I end up deleting the whole directory, of course with precious informations. I have ufs on the hdd, after the accident I've turned off the computer to avoid any writings on the disk. Do you have any idea how can I recover the lost directory? Thank you!

This is no joke if you've lost a lot of files, but worth it if you have one or two vital ones amongst them. Sorry I can't be of any more comfort.

Meanwhile I've found this software: http://www.ufsexplorer.com/, I'm going to give a try. Regards, Laci That's the company that produces the Raise Data Recovery product I mentioned. However, I believe it's better for recovering data from a broken FS in the case of UFS2, not for undeleteing a whole directory/disk full of deliberately deleted files. I just checked, and it has a try-before-buy feature so you have nothing to lose. Good luck, and please keep us informed! FWIW I use Pandora for jobs similar to this, although it doesn't specifically support UFS. Piriform's Recuva also has its uses. But where UFS is involved I've failed to find a magic solution - just recovery from a backup unless it's one or two odd files. About the only thing you have going for you with UFS is the directory retains the file name after deletion if you haven't created any new files over it. But the inode (where it is on the disk) is another matter.

RE: ufs recovery
Assuming the disk has not been written to, then making a full DD image of the drive is your 1st step, then make a copy of that DD image and store it somewhere safe in case something goes wrong with the one you are working on. You can try Foremost which can recover data even deleted stuff from a DD image, there was another package that works on the command line but I cannot recall the name of it just now. Your success rate will depend on the type of data you are trying to recover, from experience foremost works better on certain types of files.

You try out different tools (with different scope). If you are lucky, you get your data back. (I was lucky once, got my data back!) There are _many_ good tools around. Most of them are free, so you don't need to invest massive amounts of money in a repeating trial error process.

It probably won't restore your data, but it can be used to determine if there is something to restore. Also consider R-Studio and R-Studio Emergency (live CD). Those offer free versions that can be used for testing. Finally, I'd like to mention The Sleuth Kit. It's one of the most powerful toolsets, also used in forensics and investigation. As I said, I ran into a similar problem (files deleted). Maybe you can find this discussion thread in the archives and gain some more inspiration from it.

Ouch. I have a similar procedure going. But I put it in a shell-script that mounts the destination _and_ checks if the destination is properly mounted _before_ starting the rsync. I would suggest you do something similar in the future. Just to be clear, was the information deleted from _both_ harddisks? I have ufs on the hdd, after the accident I've turned off the computer to avoid any writings on the disk. Do you have any idea how can I recover the lost directory? Do you perhaps have a snapshot of the filesystem in question available? If so, you can mount that and restore the files from it. See e.g.: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/snapshots.html If all else fails, have a look at sysutils/sleuthkit. Restoring deleted files on UFS is very difficult, but you can find some pointers here: http://wiki.sleuthkit.org/index.php?title=FS_Analysis#Manual_Deleted_File_Recovery It helps if you know what kind of data is contained in the deleted file. To prevent this from happening again, make regular backups e.g. to an external harddisk that you use for that purpose alone.
