I cannot believe that this update was vetted thoroughly, however, it is
a little to late to bitch about it now. These sort of problems are
becoming all to common place lately, IMHO.
Feeling your frustration here as well. This latest update has caused a lot of
us a great deal of problems: I

Just upgraded X using portupgrade. Now, X dies when I try to start it. I
usually use xdm, disabled that and tried `startx` and it just hangs,
exactly as it did when trying to use xdm. I read that others on the list
are also having some X related issues after upgrading it, is anyone
aware
When it crashes, i've noticed another error that shows on the console:

... not sure what that means exactly, any ideas?

Hello
I've been reading up on securing sshd after being bombarded with attempted
logins.
The steps i've taken so far to make things more secure are:
* changed the encryption method for passwords in /etc/login.conf from md5 to
blowfish and changed all the passwords to ridiculously obscure
I think on reflection I might have been a little over the top with blocking
password logins and I think the point about carrying a key on a usb stick, etc,
is a very good one. The reason I went with that decision is because I only
expect to be logging in to the server from two locations: at
In that case, the best thing you can do is figure out the IP ranges of
either location.
Definately a good idea, thanks Eric.
Btw. I found two articles on securityfocus.com, the first is analysis
using a honeypot, as you see these attacks are pretty lame:
Two pc's:
1 - router
2 - logger
Situation: someone tries to bruteforce into a server, and the logger
get's a log about it [e.g.: ssh login failed].
What's the best method to ban that ip [what is bruteforcig a server]
what was logged on the logger?
I need to ban the ip on the router
I like spamd from OpenBSD -- this is actually a firewall plugin which
intercepts traffic to port 25. Works with any MTA.
Not just greylisting, but greytrapping and teergrube. Every time you

Since you are using a security branch all the the updates are security
related or severe bugs. So look at the most recent update, currently p2
and compare it with the end of your version string.

Exactly the problem. Thank you!
Curious, on my system (7.2) my ~/.Xdefaults uses lowercase 'xterm*...'
values.
At least you got it working which is the main thing.

Hi
I've now got a different problem when trying to portupgrade ghostscript8
and the build fails with an error: (new compiler error).
I had a problem with ghostscript the last time it need upgrading. I
think then I removed it from the system and just built the new port.
This time, I have a number

Hi,
I just got the news of someone who build binaries of TeXlive 2009.

This is great news, thanks for sharing. I was looking forward to get
TexLive 2009 running on FreeBSD.
Absolutely, have either of you tried it out yet?
You can build your own binaries by tweaking an svn checkout of the
TeXlive sources. I've done this on my laptop, because I run CURRENT
and the old TeXlive 2008 binaries failed to run:
