Stephen Liu Ofcourse you searched the internet, the archives etc? (guess not) It says to you that the var drive is full, the var drive keeps logs etc so pretty crucial that it has some space. Go to /var/log and check which files are a bit big and rotate them. You can do that by entering single user mode, mount the /var, go to /var/log, type `ls -lh' it gives you the filesizes Some file has to be what bigger then the rest, so we need to clean it a bit. Mount the /usr drive and create the directory /usr/tmp (since that drive has a lot of space left), now mv /var/log/$bigfilename /usr/tmp/ and touch /var/log/$bigfilename (So that it does exist). If you reboot now the system will come up and i guess that the things are starting to work again. The Failure of gnome is too less space on /var i think, The portsclean package? What's that?

If you install programs manually you have mostly a option in the ./configure script that enables you to select a prefix. Mostly that prefix will be /usr/local/, there all non default applications will be installed.

The upgrade instructions in INSTALL.txt suggest putting in the CD, and using sysinstall for a binary upgrade. That is no option for me. What I am looking for is an upgrade method which - can be used over an SSH connection - is not too difficult (like manually placing each piece in the right place) - does not leave old stuff on the HD (like the sysinstall method does, AFAIK) ... to make it short, something like the ports system (especially portupgrade) does with non-system apps would be cool. I use CVSup to update my system and then rebuild as described in the /usr/src/Makefile file, (yeah yeah there is a UPDATING file on should follow), the only thing that i am not doing, since i dont have physical access as well, is boot into single user mode and run mergemaster, mostly i am keen of knowing what changes , so far on my 5.x servers there weren't any issue's requiring mergemaster to run. Apart from that i updated my systems many times, without being in single user mode, with an ssh connection.

re: Small postfix question
Hey Jorn, Hi all, I was wondering if Postfix could follow symbolic links, since I only have an 512M /var partition. I would rather link it to the /usr partition, which is about 55G. My common sense tells me that I should just link /var/mail to /usr/mail or something like that, and to copy the original /var/mail content to /usr/mail. Please correct me if I am wrong. Cheers, Jorn I am not sure whether symbolic links are supported by postfix. But i do know that postfix can change it's mailqueue dir..It's a setting grep '/var' main.cf :-) and change that to your new directory. At least that is what i did and it worked.

In my very short recent history with FreeBSD, I've formed the opinion that documenting FreeBSD is it's greatest weakness. FreeBSD needs someone who can actually type to write a good book for beginners who have never seen UNIX code. A book is needed with examples that actually WORK! Examples that are explained in plain English. There seems to be very few books on FreeBSD around. I have decided that it is a very good operating system which I need to learn more about.

Re: Partition sizes for small harddisk
Hi Mark, 852 MB should be enough. Go with a Custom installation, and you'll need to be utterly ruthless about not installing unneeded distribution sets. Custom installation scares me a little, as I don't really know what I'm doing yet. I will try and read docs and probably start over lots of times (which is fine with me). When I really get stuck can always ask again :-) regards Mark I installed a custom NetBSD version on a 420megabyte harddisk, and installed numberous FreeBSD installations (from 4.3 if i recall correctly) on a 1.2gb harddisk. With those two numbers i can figure you can install a minimum install of FreeBSD on your disk, and add some nice little features (the 420mb disk was running a firewall,dnsserver and a passthrough mailserver (With some low end checks that i didn't want to have on the actual mailserver behind it). This box also was a Sniffer in my network for extented period of time, logging everything to a SQL box behind it (on the management network ofcourse) , it had a lot of traffic passing through but it managed to work. So, the install size will be ok i think, your only issue might indeed be running into steps that might confuse you, reading the docs and asking us are good options.

RE: Many Users, Switchover
Hi
Within my personal experience *BSD (thus FreeBSD) can do everything your
linux box can, and more,
i find it more robust, secure , more options to secure stuff :), and better
architecture support (
meaning that i personally find that i have more performance on my BSD
machines instead of my Linux machines)
I Run a multi person network at home, having a freebsd webserver and some
other servers using fileserver stuff etc etc.
It works well, no problems found, with the ports everything is easy to
install, upgrade and so on
Hope this helps you a bit :)
Cheers
p.s FreeBSD is the most user-friendly operating system having security also
in mind, in the BSD series, after
that comes NetBSD and OpenBSD {Note that i use all of them :) }

Dear Sir
Last year I started off with RH 8. I got a new server for the student campus
and would like to install something ells than RH8 due that they have
privatised. But I do have my concerns. How would FreeBSD integrate into a
windows environment? Having a bunch of students logging into the net work to
access files on the server and running network applications, databasing with
MySQL, management of users and shared folders(per user), is it easy and user
friendly? Does it support DNS with Windows?
Your answer might be the final convincing word, and something ells, security
is of utmost importance, the support on topics and documentation is it
complete similar to RH, I am new tot his business and need backup material?
Yours truly
Chris

RE: ntpd
It needs to synchronise with the server server
so that it's time is accurate, that can take a while,
it needs to trace times etc. giving it 2 hours, is certainly enough :)
the drift states it drift from the time so it knows how many seconds it will
'drift' in x time
{like 0.1 sec every hour means a little correction... }

Hi,
Since you use a smart host, all email is directly send to that host i think

So my guess is that you need local aliases on t he smtp.washington.edu

Onderwerp: FreeBSD 5.2 sendmail - root alias aliases not working
Hi, Im trying to hand off all the cron mail (to root) on my freebsd 5.2
server
to another user or 2 using the aliases file and sendmail.
The problem is that sendmail does not seem to be looking at my aliases file
at all.
Here is my setup:
ali# grep send /etc/rc.conf
sendmail_enable=NO
sendmail_submit_enable=YES
sendmail_msp_queue_enable=YES
ali#
The only thing I changed from the default freebsd.mc file in /etc/mail
was to uncomment/add the line:
dnl Dialup users should uncomment and define this appropriately
define(`SMART_HOST', `smtp.washington.edu')
to hand off email to the campus-wide delivery system
in /etc/aliases I have:
# Pretty much everything else in this file points to root, so
# you would do well in either reading root's mailbox or forwarding
# root's email from here.
root: mbw, ncosgray
Which I would assume will fwd mail to root to those 2 users...

I put 'firewall_enable=YES' in /etc/rc.conf, in anticipation of
rebuilding my kernel with the following options turned on:
options IPFIREWALL
options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE
options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT=100
I rebooted, for unrelated reasons, and now see in the messages file that
ipfw2 has been enabled and, indeed, since I have no rules in place, my
system is cut off from the network.
I haven't yet rebuilt my kernel, so I don't understand why this kicked
in. Did adding that line in rc.conf suck in a kernel module that
obsoletes the need for those kernel options? How do I check (I'd do an
lsmod, on Linux - don't know what the equivalent FreeBSD command is)?
If it is a module, how do I enable logging, as adding
'firewall_logging=YES' to /etc/rc.conf didn't turn it on, according to
the messages file. Likewise for divert (though I don't currently need it).

I installed the package mhash just now and I had installed the
package version of mod_php.
What makefile are you talking about to get mod_php to use mhash?

mhash can be found in the ports : /usr/ports/security/mhash
also typing mhash in google gave as first hit the homepage of the

After installing mhash you need to configure mod_php to use it,

RE: Where to find apache PHP script mhash function
Well,
Actually i do, i pasted this from the Makefile,
If i state it correctly, it says that you need to use php4 in
/usr/ports/lang/php4,
if you want to use other extentions, indeed implying that you need to use
that instead
of mod_php for things you want to do,
But i am not sure if there are other options are available :)

RE: SSH Problem
Hi,
Remote rootlogin's are disabled .. which is good for security reasons,
what do you mean with it does not work as user
You login under ssh -X [EMAIL PROTECTED] which then gives you a shell
for $user when you properly authorized. After that you can use X11,
You mean that X11 does not run as $user? it runs under root?
Well perhaps it's already started by root, so that you tunnel to
X11 where it's already running. You can try to fix that by starting
X11 as $user, for example using startx {when it's not running yet}
Hope this helps a little, if not, perhaps i did not understand your
question to the fullest, sorry for that :)

RE: ipfilter tcp flags question
Hmm
not sure about the if No flags are set,
Isn't that stated in the obfuscation.org/ipf/
papers?
There is not an overruling block behind that yet btw,
It's just the first lines i wrote since i want to
kick that traffic out now, instead of
just before my overruling block line
I always use that,
block default stuff that doesnot wanted to be in the other list
pass stuff
block all packets that are still alive here.
Like that :)
btw The flags RU etc are just the TCP flags, are they set in the first
packet,
second
perhaps this clarifies a bit
Some examples use flags S/SA instead of flags S.
flags S actually equates to flags S/AUPRFS and
matches against only the SYN packet out of all six
possible flags, while flags S/SA will allow pack-
ets that may or may not have the URG, PSH, FIN, or
RST flags set. Some protocols demand the URG or
PSH flags, and S/SAFR would be a better choice for
these, however we feel that it is less secure to
blindly use S/SA when it isn't required. But it's
your firewall.
= S/SAFR allow those in {for tcp ofcourse}
zo, initial blocks (opt lsrr opt ssrr, short etc)
pass phrases with S/SAFR options
block anything else
This might block undefined flags,
not sure though :)

I really dislike implied rules, and avoid them if at all possible, as

RE: Installation - More user friendly
The you know how it works stuff has a very good resource online
www.freebsd.org/handbook
It teaches you from the basics through rather advanced stuff.
Like every OS you need to learn it, FreeBSD is robust and userfriendly
but not with the installation as you want it.. It requires you to
educate yourself a little bit.. {dont feel offended, don't mean it like
that}

Onderwerp: Re: Installation - More user friendly
Well, basicly, most people I know don't like the graphical installations
like Red Hat and Mandrake. When I worked with Mandrake some time ago I
never chosed the graphical installation either ...
And as far as I know, FreeBSD isn't aiming as much to user
friendly-enviroments as Mandrake is. FreeBSD is an operating system you
need to take your time for, and you need to read the proper
documentation. FreeBSD is user friendly enough when you know how it
works (take the ports-tree for example), but it requires that the user
is willing to invest time in the Operating System.
Cheers,
Jorn.

RE: Postfix install questions..
Try changing the file master.cf
The first unhashed line with smtp, change the smtpd command {at the end of
the line}
into smtpd -v,
Then reload postfix, now you have more verbose logging and it could tell you
what typo you probably made,
When that does not work, perhaps displaying your main.cf could help
Oh, dont forget to turn off the verbose logging again by removing the -v

the changed line ;)

Onderwerp: Postfix install questions..
Tonight, I starting looking into installing postfix to replace sendmail as
our primary MTA. I'm currently playing with it on my home system (fbsd 4.9)
and installing from ports. The install goes well, I've went through the
main.cf and set it up. However, when trying to connect to port 25, I get an
error postfix fatal: unsupported dictionary type: and nothing else.
postconf -m shows:
static
pcre
regexp
environ
proxy
btree
unix
hash
I've looked through google and it seems that every entry displaying
unsupported dictionary type shows hash, mysql, etc but nothing just simply
empty. Am I correct in thinking that for some reason, postfix doesn't see
hash as a viable type even though it's found and compiled in?
Error log entries in mailllog show:
Mar 7 22:51:13 caverns postfix/smtpd[3564]: fatal: unsupported dictionary
type:

Perhaps you should read your manual pages for more information {man devfs},
Also, i thought {unsure} that when you have a lpt port enabled, it get's detected

RE: hacked
you should make a copy of your current harddrive, and lock the otherone in a safe or something , so that you can always make additional copy's. This requires a same sized harddisk in a other working system.. But that is propably not what you have, You should check your webserver logs/ftp logs, for bogus entries Note that firewalling does not prevent webdefacements, why? Well port 80/20/21 is allowed traffic, so people can get in. IT might be possible that your ftp server got breached, what version did you run? What webserver did you run? with php?

word :P)
so you could try and start the mysql package as a_mysql.sh or something so
that it is processed earlier on, i have exactly the same issue, my
webservers etc all come up {using SQL, but SQL is started later on, even the
ldconfig hasn't been done yet at that stage, so he
cant find the libraries and so on, causing my mailserver to fail as well }
So, you could try that {did not check it yet myself}

Onderwerp: rc script timing issues?
On 5.2.1-RELEASE-p1, in /usr/local/etc/rc.d, I have scripts that start
my MySQL database, and that start my Courier-IMAP daemons. When the
scripts for courier run, one of the first things they do is start
authdaemond, which should fire up several authdaemond.mysql processes
and then they start the imap daemons.
On reboot, the imap daemons are running, but the authdaemond.mysql
processes aren't. If I stop the imap script, and re-run it, everything
starts up just fine.
I suspect that the database isn't getting started before the imap
scripts are run. So, I moved the database startup script to /etc/rc.d,
but on reboot, the database wasn't started. I had hoped moving it to
/etc/rc.d might start it earlier in the boot process.
Suggestions? TIA.

RE: bypassing a proxy server
Hi, questions are never stupid, you did some research at forehand that makes you smarter then others, but they are also not stupid. You want to have portforwarding on the Win2k machine to your fbsd system, (with a dedicated internal ip), it maps connections from the extern ip on the win2k machine to your machine and back, at least that is done in most firewallsetups including mine(bsd based so no windows actually). But it might be possible to do so, i cannot imagine that there isn't a tool for windows which does the same. The hub setup won't work, you should never get a ip addr through that hub, in my humble opinion. Also i cannot see the logic of your anonymous ftp server, be aware that there are risks, it might be breached, there might be warez and other shit on it then, make sure you asked permission for that, before they kick you. So Portmapping is your answer i think Cheers -- Kind regards, Remko Lodder Elvandar.org/DSINet.org www.mostly-harmless.nl Dutch community for helping newcomers on the hackerscene -Oorspronkelijk bericht- Van: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Robert Storey Verzonden: maandag 15 maart 2004 20:10 Aan: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Onderwerp: bypassing a proxy server As some of you may recall, I'm engaged in an ongoing saga trying to set up a FreeBSD machine on a school's network. The school is Windows only - the administration knows nothing about FreeBSD (or Linux), and it's up to me to prove to them that FBSD is worth teaching to the students. Due to my lobbying, the school has given me one old computer to play with, and I have installed FreeBSD on it. But there are problems. The biggest is that the gateway machine is Windows 2000 and it's running a proxy server (to keep the students from visiting naughty web sites). So the FreeBSD machine cannot get through to the Internet with http, though the Windows machines can. On the other hand, the FBSD box can get through the gateway with ssh and ftp (though performance is sluggish, even with a T1 line). Furthermore, I want the FreeBSD machine to run an anonymous ftp server. Forgive the crappy drawing (I never claimed to be an artist), but this is how the network looks at the moment (except that there are 10 Windows clients, not 2): |---| |windows| |||--||client | | Win2000 || ||---| T1|proxy server||switch| | gateway || ||---| |||---|--||windows| | |client | | |---| | |-|| | FBSD ftp | | server | |--| The problem is that this doesn't work. People from outside the network can't get through to the FBSD ftp server. Clearly, that Win2000 proxy server is an evil machine. When I last discussed this problem (on this list), Matthew wrote back and offered me a pretty thorough explanation of the problem, which is posted here: http://freebsd.rambler.ru/bsdmail/freebsd-questions_2002/msg34253.html OK, I'm convinced, running a ftp server from a NAT gateway is a disaster. So I'm looking for a way around it. I have an old unused hub, and I've been thinking that this might be a possible solution (sort of like a DMZ?)... |---| |windows| |||--||client | | Win2000 || ||---| T1--HUB---|proxy server||switch| || gateway || ||---| ||||--||windows| | |client | | |---| | ||-| | FBSD ftp | | server | |--| The only problem I see here is I don't know how I'm going to get an address for the ftp server. The Win2000 gateway has a static address, it dishes out addresses to the clients with dhcp. The NAT addresses are of course internal addresses like 10.0.0.12, but the school does own a block of 64 static addresses. If I simply stick a hub in front of the gateway machine, all traffic to the gateway will also be sent to the ftp server - I know that will cause packet collisions, but I can live with the crappy performance because it's a very low traffic environment. My main concern is simply how to assign an address to the ftp server without disconnecting the gateway machine. I'm sorry if I'm asking a dumb question, but I'm a novice when it comes to setting up networks. I haven't found anything on Google that deals with this particular question, and there is nobody around here that I can ask. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance, Robert
