RT36 port WITH_APACHE2
Hello,
Why is it that when I:
cd /usr/ports/www/rt36
make -DWITH_APACHE2
This works fine, but when I add:
MAKE_ARGS = {
'www/rt36' => 'WITH_APACHE2'
}
to my /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf and do a portupgrade -f rt, I get:
# portupgrade -f rt
---> Reinstalling 'rt-3.6.3' (www/rt36)
---> Building '/usr/ports/www/rt36' with make flags: WITH_APACHE2
make: don't know how to make WITH_APACHE2. Stop
** Listing the failed packages (*:skipped / !:failed)

mail not being delivered

RE: mail not being delivered
The message has since been deleted and I cannot give an exact message, but it says the message has been queued for X days and will be deleted. The messages then goes on to show the email that was waiting to be delivered and it is what appears to be the security logs, and among the others are various cron jobs that failed delivery as well. I am not sure if this would affect it but about a week ago (the same time this started) we were doing some reconfigurations on the network and the 3600 series router this machine was on. There was about 2 hours of down time and my mailbox was flooded with cron jobs not working (which I expected since they are internet related jobs) after that all email just stopped.

Re: Forwarding mail to another server
You can setup an MTA like Postfix to respond to an alternate port in addition to port 25. So, for me, I send mail on port 2525 to my SMTP server which requires authentication over SSL. If this sort of setup is not feasible for you, would a .forward file in your home directory do what you want?

Re: wine error
At one point I tried very hard to get Wine to work under FreeBSD, but it was very frustrating because Wine is pre-beta software right now designed for Linux. It is hard enough to get it to work under Linux! My suggestion would be to install and setup VMWare 3 on FreeBSD, this works quite well. Either that, or wait for a FreeBSD port of Crossover Office.

Help! Stupid Newbie Question
Hello, I've been playing off and on with FreeBSD for a bit of time now, but I would still consider myself a relative newbie. I've read enough and played enough to know how to install applications from ports (e.g., I was able to successfully install Moria just by reading the pages I could find). My latest endeavor has been to attempt to install MySQL. I've recently installed FreeBSD 5.9 on my system, and was attempting to use the ports directory to install it. After going to /usr/ports/databases/mysql40-server (mysql50-server failed, couldn't find the file anywhere to download apparantly) and running make then make install, I've come across a hurdle. The hurdle is rather embarrassing, but is sort of simple (and likely obvious to te guys on this list). How do I get the server software to run? I know I can't use mysql the client until the server software is running, but I dunno the proper steps to take. I know, it's a fairly stupid question, but I seem incompetent at finding the right instructions to get it going. If someone could please point me in the right direction to look around so I know what steps I need to do next, I would be greatly appreciative. I'm able to find methods to perform certain operations, but naturally it needs to have the server software actually running :D Many many thanks to anyone who can help me out. --Joe G. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

vr0 up, but doesn't pass data
I have 5.3-RELEASE with a GENERIC kernel running on a new (old) Mach Speed V600DAP motherboard which uses the VIA KT600 Northbridge and VIA VT8237 Southbridge chipsets. It has an onboard NIC which is detected as vr0. It appears to ifconfig to be working, but doesn't seem to pass any data. No DHCP, ping, nslookup etc. I haven't been able to find anything like this on google or searching past postings. I'm beginning to wonder if it's just not supposed to work. As I was typing this I realized I didn't have 5.4 loaded on this machine, so I'll try that tomorrow.

What to backup for named?
After a recent disk failure, I left myself a note to add the DNS/DHCP info to my backup. I have a small, over-engineered for my education, network of 10 computers in my house. I run BIND with dynamic zones on my FreeBSD server, I also use the DNS service on my Win2k-AD server. They both are designated as slaves for each other. What do I need to backup? Are just the configuration files from /var/namedb/etc/namedb enough to recreate everything if my FBSD server dies? Or are there some database files I should be keeping also? I tried googling, but either this is way to easy of a question or I'm not looking in the right places.

I utillized the version of atapi-cam.c (rev. 1.42.2.1) and all works
normally.
===
I have this version of the file:
#include
__FBSDID("$FreeBSD: src/sys/dev/ata/atapi-cam.c,v 1.42.2.5 2007/05/15 16:19:42
thomas Exp $");
So AFAICT, either this was not the relevant file; or a fix for the
bug was never committed; or perhaps a fix was committed, but doesn't
quite work; or perhaps the bug crept back in...but I don't know.
In any event, I need a clue: is this file, atapi-cam.c, the one to
assume contains the source of this error? If so, I suppose I need to
submit a bug report.
Thanks, and best regards,
Joe

Back in the day...4.9-RELEASE you were able to install apache+mod_ssl and mod_php4.

problems mailing from base_host to jail_on_base_host
I have a freeBSD 4.10-RELEASE installation. On that system, I have, running, a jail with a 4.10-RELEASE userland that is _identical_ to the base host. It is identical because I dumped the base systems filesystem and restored it inside the jail. Everything is working fine. I have never touched any of the files inside of /etc/mail on either the base host OR the jail. Email works find on the base host, and email works fine in the jail. Users in the jail can email users in the base host without any problem. HOWEVER, if a user on the base host attempts to email a user in the jail (example.com, the base host will not deliver the mail. In /var/log/maillog, the following error is generated: May 13 08:47:03 basehost sm-mta[59207]: j4xSj059205: SYSERR(root): MX list for example.com. points back to basehost May 13 08:47:03 basehost sm-mta[59207]: j4xSj059205: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, ctladdr=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (1001/1001), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, pri=30457, relay=example.com., dsn=5.3.5, stat=Local configuration error May 13 08:47:03 basehost sm-mta[59207]: j4xSj059205: j4DFl3Sj059207: DSN: Local configuration error So it seems as if basehost is looking up the IP of example.com (the jail) and deciding "hey that is one of the IPs on the machine I am on ... barf!" So, again, I reiterate, I have never touched any files in /etc/mail on either the basehost or the jail ... it seems that all is well in the jail, but it seems that I need to somehow tell sendmail on the basehost to only consider the main IP on basehost to belong to itself, and ignore other IPs.

BIND and NAT
Hello all, I have a small question regarding a DNS issue I am having. I have a bsd box setup for a domain I am hosting..it has FBSD 5.3 and Bind 9.3. It sits behind a NAT device and is in a DMZ. The problem is when I setup the domain I told it to point to the public ip which is translated to the private IP on which DNS listens. Now when I try to go to the site it keeps trying to connect to the private IP the site is on instead of the correct public ip. Is this an issue with the DNS files being setup for the private network or should it matter?

SSH2 and ZSH
I recently installed FreeBSD 5.4 on a new server.everything is smooth and works fine. The other day I installed the non commercial version of SSH2 from ssh.com. I've had shell accounts that used it before and thought it would be good to have. My first issue is that the normal sshd from openssh keeps trying to start instead of the new sshd2. When initially installing freebsd should I have said no to the question about enabling ssh logins? Secondly is that the majority of zsh's commands do not work when I use the ssh2 daemon.simple things like ping and top cannot be used because it says they are not found.

There are FreeBSD specifics, usually in the work subdir; so you may wish to defer make clean until you review that. It's a habit I've developed: regardless of any docs installed by any port, I always look into work after make install, just to see what might be in there. Additionally, there is copious documentation provided seperately in the ports tree for Exim; it should be enough to get you started for local delivery. That's all I use it for. I do lurk on the Exim list; it's fairly friendly, so you could ask there. They do expect you to read the docs, first, I think. If you want to go beyond using it for local delivery, I can't help. It's not complex to set it up for local stuff. -- I don't care what you think. This is not a stylishly insouciant stroll out of the jungle, here.

how can I make xterm just like the console ? (colors, etc.)
Hello, I am used to using the console for things like bitchx, nethack, etc. Now I have started using Xorg in 5.4-RELEASE (with the ion window manager). I notice that the xterm program comes up with black text on a white background, and that colors in BitchX, etc., are not the same as they were in the console. Can someone tell me what configuration I need to make the colors (and as much other behavior as possible) in xterm identical to the normal FreeBSD console ? thanks. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

mapping mouse clicks to keystrokes in X ?
I want my two mouse buttons to create the letters z and x when I press them, instead of the normal actions that those mouse buttons send to X. Don't ask. It's as simple as it sounds: if I click mouse button one, it is as if I press z on the keyboard, if I click mouse button 2, it is as if I press x on the keyboard. Does anyone know how to do this ? I am looking at xmodmap, but even though it swaps mouse buttons around, and maps keys to other keys, I can't see how to make it map mouse buttons to keys... Any ideas ? __ Do You Yahoo!?

Using a logitech mx700 with scrollwheel and thumb buttons in xorg
Hello, I have a logitech mx700 - it has a scrollwheel and two thumb buttons (designed for forward and back in your browser) as well as some other launch button on the top that I guess is for launching an app. I am using FBSD 5.4-RELEASE with xorg installed from the ports tree. I have tried many, many different combinations of settings in /etc/rc.conf, xorg.conf and .xinitrc. The results are always the same: - I can use the scrollwheel just fine - first three mouse buttons work just fine - the other three (two thumb buttons and the app button) _always_ generate the same mousebutton event So for instance, at first I had: moused_flags="-z 4" in /etc/rc.conf and I had: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/sysmouse" Option "Buttons" "7" EndSection in my xorg.conf and I had: /usr/X11R6/bin/xmodmap -e "pointer = 1 3 2 4 5 6 7" in my .xinitrc Checking button events in xev, under this config, shows that upwheel is 4, downwheel is 5 (and yes, the wheel worked) and all three other buttons (two thumbs and app button) were all button 5. so then I removed the -z line from /etc/rc.conf, and added this to my xorg.conf: Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7" Same behavior. wheel works, the other three are all event button 5. So the only semi-success I had was when I changed my ZAxisMapping line to: Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5 6 7" When I did this, wheelup is 4, wheeldown is 5, the little pseudo buttons above and below the wheel now create the following combo events of 6,4 and 5,5 respectively, and my two thumb buttons and app button now all produce button 7. - So what can I do here ? No matter how I rearrange my settings, the two thumb buttons and the app button always produce the same button event. Whether it is 5 or 7, it is always the same. Does anyone have a Logitech mx700 mouse, in FreeBSD 5.x, with xorg, running properly with the wheel and the thumb buttons ? thanks, __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

trying to use vga11x19.pcf.gz with rxvt under Xorg
Hello, I am advised by the bitchx faq that the best xterm environment to run bitchx under is rxvt, with the vga11x19 font. So I installed rxvt from the ports tree, and ran: rxvt -bg black -fg white -fn vga11x19 it did indeed start, but I received the error: rxvt: can't load font "vga11x19" Sure enough, I do not have that font. So I searched for it and downloaded the file vga11x19.pcf.gz and placed it into my /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc directory. I then ran `rehash`. However I get the same error from rxvt. How can I incorporate this new font file into my system such that rxvt can find it ? Would it help to just re-init my Xserver ? Or should I be able to drop new font files into that dir and use them on the fly ? thanks. __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

pam not starting for saslauthd
I'm trying to get SMTP AUTH going for exim(*), using saslauthd on a RELENG_5 box, with both the sytem and ports up to date and an otherwise fairly vanilla setup. The problem comes when saslauthd is invoked by exim, as follows: (from exim debugging output) 63097 Running saslauthd authentication for user "joe" 63097 saslauthd userid='joe' servicename='' realm='' saslauthd then invokes pam, which refuses to start: (from /var/log/auth) May 24 12:15:16 elegba saslauthd[8743]: in openpam_read_chain(): /etc/pam.d/(1): invalid facility 'Z' (ignored) May 24 12:15:16 elegba saslauthd[8743]: do_auth : auth failure: [user=joe] [service=] [realm=] [mech=pam] [reason=PAM start error] I can't, for the life of me, figure out why pam thinks it is being called for facility 'Z' rather than auth. I have an exim configfile in /etc/pam.d that is basically a clone of the other configfile. Adding debugging to the module parameters doesn't produce any more information. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing? * I know that the exim configuration is correct as I am successfully using essentially the same configuration on a linux box. Starting exim with authentication debugging turned on reveals that the client is passing valid, correct data to saslauthd.

questions RE: opera web browser and plugins...
Hello, I am using linux-opera in FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE, with ion as my window manager. As far as plugins, shockwave-flash is behaving perfectly. When I click on a .swf file, the flash animation opens up _inside_ the web viewing area, stays inside the browser, etc. No new windows are created. However, when the flash animation is finished, I am simply left with a black screen and have to hit the back button to go back to the page I initiated the flash file from. 1. Is there any way to just have the animation finish and be left back at the screen I started on ? (and not have to hit the back button) Now, acroread behaves differently ... I can successfully open pdf documents in opera, but acroread spawns a whole new window. 2. Is there any way to have acroread initiate itself _inside_ of opera ? Even better, is it possible for it to respect the browser back button, so I can just go back with the back button and the acroread window (and program) just disappear ? 3. Is this possible with xmms and/or xine as well ? They also spawn whole new windows when I hit a .avi or .mp3 ... 4. Is it possible that somehow, between opera and xine, (or xmms) they can be smart enough to know that if one piece of media is playing, and I click on another piece of media, not to spawn another player and compete with each other for graphics/sound, but rather to just start playing the new thing in the existing player and forget the old piece of media ? 5. Finally, often opera will, when I click on a mp3 or a movie, download the entire thing before sending it off to xmms/xine for playback. How can I force opera to just start playing it immediately ? And further, is it possible to configure how much of it to buffer before handing it off ? I know it is possible, because if I run: xmms http://example.com/mp3/some_song.mp3 playback begins immediately ... it doesn't download the entire song first... thanks. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Trying to recover data from FreeBSD 4.11 system
I have an old Cyrix computer which doesn't post any more. It had 3 hard drives. The boot drive had the / partition as well as /usr and /var, and the other 2 drives were configured with Vinum RAID 1 for /home. I hooked up what used to be the boot drive in a new system and it showed what looked like some hex numbers and then the error message "BTX halted". So, I installed this drive as the second hard drive in a FreeBSD 6.2 system and I tried to mount it, but I got "incorrect super block".

Tools to modify shared libraries
Has anyone ever come across general-purpose tools for modifying shared libraries? What I want to do is to edit the list of "needed" shared libraries to correct the common mistakes that developers make in creating shared objects with large lists of shared libraries. Specifically, I want to modify linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so to remove all of the idiotic references to shared libraries that the Flash 6 developers added. Since this is a plugin for Mozilla, it does not need to specify any extra shared libraries especially since Mozilla has already loaded all of them! I want to do this to make Flash 6 work with flashpluginwrapper. If I can remove the list of needed shared libraries from the DYNAMIC section of the shared library, everyone will be that much closer to a real flash 6 plugin for BSD. /Joe ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

GNU objcopy --- but it's a bit *too* general; you'd need to extract the .dynamic section, edit it using some binary editing tool, and re-add it. I have tried and failed... I even looked at the code. objcopy is horrible as far as it goes. Maybe if I could learn more about bfd in general, there might be something I could do with objcopy, but it does not look promising. I doubt there are any tools of the kind you're looking for because the details are too different between different systypes; even if someone had developed one, it's just as likely to be for Linux or Solaris as for *BSD, and as a result wouldn't be particularly useful. All 32-bit Elf libraries look the same as far as the DT_NEEDED entries in the DYNAMIC section. In fact, *all* ELF libraries look the same relative to the size of the string table offset used for entries. The DYNAMIC section is the simplest of all sections, generally consisting of a tag and a value, both in the native word size (e.g., 32 or 64). I am surprised that no one has done this yet. I tried elfsh, but the version in ports is too old. I got the most recent version from the website, but it has a lot of linuxisms in it. Basically, what I want to do is remove several entries from the *front* of the dynamic section. Actually, I would settle for just removing all of a certain tag (such as DT_NEEDED) from the dynamic section. /Joe ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

The issue is one of attempting to use a *linux* shared library in a native application. Have you ever lookad at the flashpluginwarpper port? It provides a library to perload which intercepts the linux syscalls and translates them to bsd syscalls to allow linux shared libraries (specifically, the linux flash library) in native binaries. This works fine for the old flash plugin since that shared library did not include any DT_NEEDED entires in its .dynamic section. However, the new Flash 6 linux shared library has a number of explicit references to linux-only shared libraries as DT_NEEDED references in its .dynamic section. This prevents us from using the flashpluginwrapper trick to allow use of Flash 6 in native Mozilla.

The linker knows which libraries are really needed and should be able to create the minimal list of (true) dependencies. This cannot be accomplished by fixing the linker. The issue is one of attempting to use a *linux* shared library in a native application. Linux uses the same linker (GNU ld). Fixing the linker will have the same effect on Linux as it will have on FreeBSD and hence will prevent unnecessary dependencies in Linux libraries to Linux libraries and thus remove the need to patch ELF files in the long run. The problem cannot be resolved by "fixing" ld. The problem arises from people who specify unnecessary libraries on their ld command lines. ld cannot tell the difference between a required library and an unnecessary library at link time. Only the runtime loader can do this, and the FreeBSD runtime loader has numerous problems in this area. Sometimes a shared library has to include a required library reference since the shared library author knows in advance that the programs using the library do not have the same requirements. Most often, clueless programmers reference every single library ever known to them on their linker command lines in the off-chance that it *might* make a difference at load time. However, this leads to shared libraries containing references to explicitlyly versioned libraries, thus leading to the proliferation of unnecessarily versioned shared libraries, etc., etc. I can think of many reasons for post-linker tools to modify shared libraries. Most of them involve fixing the egregious mistakes perpetrated by users who have not thought out what requirements a shared library outgt to carry with it. Others involve patching and other kinds of code modification. /Joe ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

When linking shared libraries, the linker *cannot* resolve any references to other shared libraries other than list them in the .dynamic section with some sort of tag such as DT_NEEDED.

FreeBSD 5.1 Release, WMe, Invalid Partition Error after 5.1 install
Greetings, listmembersif 5.1 Release questions are better on the list for current, please let me know...I'm not quite sure where the lines are in this apparently interim period. I recently performed the following act of Doh: 1) Partitioned a 30 Gig Seagate IDE under dos fdisk, allocating 8 Gig to WMe for Unreal Tournament. 2) Installed Me, and the game, configured the necessaries, and voila it booted fine. 3) Then, I installed 5.1 in preparation for a complete move to it on my main machine. That went fine, and booting was a cinch. I was using the FBSD bootloader, F2 for FreeBSD as usual. 4) Trying to use F1 after the FreeBSD install, however, failed with an "invalid partition" message. IOW, WMe would not boot. FreeBSD continued to boot just fine. The partition was seen by both fdisks. I've installed the boot loader in 4.3 - 4.8, and never had this problem. I could go through the steps presented to me in the sysinstall process, but they appear identical to the last 4.x install I did, years ago, so I don't know if that is relevant. Did I miss an announcement about incompatabilities between Mes' fdisk/partitioning scheme, and FreeBSDs' bootloader, particularly 5.1, or what? I'm quite perplexed; is this somehow related to the new bootloader stuff referenced here, specifically Section 4: http://www.freebsd.org/releases/5.1R/errata.html I think that what I am really interested in is whether or not anyone has ever seen such an error, post-BSD install, where the other OS just will not boot. Nothing fixes it; wiping the BSD install, nope; fdisk /mbr, nada. In fact, I can't use the BSD fdisk to delete the partition...I am presented with an 'unable to write changes' type of error message, and I am forced to use the dos fdisk, but that still doesnt' repair whatever was broken. Also, I was always under the impression that BSD just doesnt' fubar other OSes MBRs. So it must be something else. But what? The machine itself is not crucial to my online/work needs, and it is at this point a test bed for 5.1. But I do need my UTEO, so any help is appreciated. -- Free the West Memphis Three http://www.wm3.org/ ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

flashpluginwrapper for Flash 6 (Shared Library Tools redux)
Ok. I hand-modified the linux-flashplugin6 shared library to remove all
of the DT_NEEDED entries. I then modified flashpluginwrapper to add the
following functions:
void __assert_fail(const char *assertion, const char *file,
unsigned int line, const char *function)
{
fprint (stderr, "%s:%d:%s: %s\n", file, line, function, assertion);
abort ();
}
#include
int __ctype_toupper(int c)
{
return toupper (c);
}
unsigned short int __ctype_b[256];
#include
int *__errno_location(void)
{
return __error ();
}
unsigned long int __strtoul_internal(const char *__nptr, char **__endptr,
int __base, int __group)
{
return strtoul (__nptr, __endptr, __base);
}
void __terminate()
{
fprintf (stderr, "terminate!\n");
}
ssize_t __write (int __fd, const void *__buf, size_t __size)
{
return write (__fd, __buf, __size);
}
int __fxstat(int __ver, int __filedesc, struct stat *__stat_buf)
{
return fstat (__filedesc, __stat_buf);
}
int __xstat(int __ver, const char *__filename, struct stat *__stat_buf)

Anyone familiar enough with Mozilla internals to understand why
pthread_mutex_init segfaults? Has Mozilla started its own threads by
the time it loads the libraries? I don't know where to look to track
this down. Maybe a difference between Linux and FreeBSD in the pthread
semantics?

11 Hour Installs on KDE?
Hi All, I installed 5.1 on 2 separate machines yesterday. After the general install (which included all the Ports), I went to /usr/ports/x11/kde3 and did a: make install clean after reading tfm. The install has been going for over 11 hours now. It's not hung up, the text is scrolling by... On both machines... Is there something I should know? I can re-install 5.1, 5.0, or any version on these machines if necessary, but I'm somewhat curious about this huge length of install time...

Re: 11 Hour Installs on KDE?
Hey Guys, Thanks for your input and explanations. Here's the part I don't understand (very simplistic view). Both machines previously had Red Hat 9 installed on them. I decided that I didn't want to pay Red Hat for their up2date feature on each machine and decided to go back to BSD with a GUI so I could go back to the trusty, and free ports feature(s)... RH9 took less than 15 minutes to install and boot for each machine. It has the Blue Wave GUI and I would imagine is pretty bloated as well. So, from this point of view, how can one OS take 15 minutes, while the other take 15 hours (and counting)? The machines are Pentium II, 333Mhz and 400 Mhz units (both are Dells). Each machine has 256 Megs of RAM, and one of the machines has a 60 gig drive... Thanks Joe > Joe Pokupec wrote: >> Hi All, >> >> I installed 5.1 on 2 separate machines yesterday.

passwordless ssh logins _STILL_ not working - help needed.
I am trying to allow _all users_ on CLIENT to login to SERVER without a password. IMPORTANT: I am not interested in user keys _at all_ - at no point in this process should I ever be dealing with any keys in /home/user/.ssh - I am only interested in doing this with HOST keys - where I copy one key between SERVER and CLIENT, and _all_ users on CLIENT can login to SERVER without a password. Don't even mention user keys. My /etc/sshd/sshd_config is exactly the same on both SERVER and CLIENT: #VersionAddendum FreeBSD-20020629 #Port 22 #Protocol 2,1 #ListenAddress 0.0.0.0 #ListenAddress :: # Authentication: IgnoreRhosts yes #RhostsRSAAuthentication no HostbasedAuthentication yes IgnoreUserKnownHosts yes ChallengeResponseAuthentication no Further, SERVER has CLIENT in its /etc/hosts.equiv, and CLIENT has SERVER in its /etc/hosts.equiv Finally, I have copied the output of /etc/sshd/ssh_host_rsa_key.pub on each system to /etc/ssh/known_hosts on the other system. The permissions on /etc/ssh/known_hosts on each system are: 2 -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel So that's it. The options are set in sshd_config, the keys have been exchanged, hosts.equiv are populated and permissions are correct. SO now I go to CLIENT and run: ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I get a password prompt!!! So what am I doing wrong ? Again - NO user keys are used and I am not interested in user keys _AT ALL_. DOn't even mention the /home/user/.ssh directory. The goal here is to share one public key between SERVER and CLIENT and allow _all_ users on CLIENT to log into SERVER without a password. So what am I doing wrong ? thanks. ___ Do you Yahoo!?

Exim and FBSD 5.3
I know it's an FAQ, and I know that strictly, it's likely to be a DB/Exim issue, but I've tried the proposed solution[1] to no avail. So: I have a toy; it runs FBSD 5.3 and I would like to use Exim for local and remote delivery. In my system mail, I am seeing this error: Tidying Exim hints databases: Tidying Exim hints database /var/spool/exim/db/retry ** Failed to open DBM file /var/spool/exim/db/retry for writing: No such file or directory (or Berkeley DB error while opening) I have this MTA running on a 4.x personal machine, and all is well. However, it only does localhost delivery. I'd like to use the 5.3 box for internet mail for my domain. Running the MTA with the debug flag: exim -d Exim version 4.43 (FreeBSD 5.3) uid=0 gid=0 pid=95010 D=fbb95cfd Probably Berkeley DB version 1.8x (native mode) So it sees _something_ about the db. This output is what I see on the 4.x box WRT the db version. The only thing I can think of that might have caused this is that during the original installation, I installed Exim from a package on CD, rather than building from source. But: "...that shouldn't matter...", right? My query: does anyone have exim on FBSD 5.3 running successfully, that is, without the error I see? My guess is that the answer from someone will be: "...of course." but I feel a need to ask. Thanks in advance for any clues. [1] Empty the /var/spool/exim/db/ dir; and let exim recreate the relevant files. -- The boys I mean are not refined they go with girls who buck and bite who masturbate with dynamite; they do not give a shit for wit they kill like you would take a piss...they shake the mountains when they dance. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I found that pkg_add -r samba fails. I need to know specifically the samba version to install it. To install, I needed do this: pkg_add -r samba3 This is difficult.
