6.2: maillog grows, newsyslog's misbehaving ?
Hi, discovered that the maillog file on my freebsd Desktop grows and grows (now at 50MB). According to the newsyslog.conf file it should be trimmed every night at midnight. /var/log/maillog640 7 *@T00 JC Is it a prerequisite, that the system then runs 24x7 so that the newsyslog default settings work ? I would have expected, that the trimming then happens on the next reboot, if the system doesn't run over midnight.

Highpoint 1820a is surprisingly good Many many years ago I bought a HighPoint HPT366 ATA66 controller. Thought its a good deal because it was cheap. Thought, an ATA interface can't be that complicated anymore so that its safe to buy a cheap product. Turned out that I was very wrong with my theorie. I ran into timeout problems, that couldn't be fixed. After days and nights of troubleshooting and testing I didn't get it to work reliably. I replaced it by buying a more expensive Promise controller. Since then I had zero problems. Since that time I lost trust in HighPoint products. Good stuff has its price. It must not always be the most expensive hardware. But going with the cheapest (and I assume the HighPoint product will again be in the low price segment) can be troublesome.

Although I don't use burncd so can't comment on it, I've been using cdrecord since FreeBSD 2.x (1997-8, IIRC), on a wide variety of burners - none of which have ever required me to eject/reload the disk to mount it, unless an operation aborted/failed. In which case the disk burnt was generally a coaster anyway. Even now, using cdrecord with ATAPICAM, this is never necesary on my current burners (NED ND6500A, Plextor PX-712A). I simply burn and then mount immediately. I see this needs more investigation. Maybe it has to deal with the exit status I had (!=0). I will do a test burn now with burncd reading from a file instead from a pipe. Let's see if it behaves different then. Hmm even if reading from a file I get this exit status 74.

4.4R: if: doesn't get started when getting remote print job (Re: apsfilter doesn't work on server)
to work. 15. In order to test if this made it work, I changed the permissions on /dev/lpt0 to root.daemon 666, killed and restarted lpd, and tried again to print the text file. It worked, and the output looked fine. The F_SETFL error message appeared again. 16. A cursory glance at the source code showed that LPRng perhaps does not -- as written in the LPRng-HOWTO -- set both uid and gid to daemon, but only the UID. In my case, it would then run as daemon.wheel, which can't possibly work. A less cursory glance at the output of lpd -D4 showed that lpd does at least look up the correct GID of 1 for the daemon group. 17. I tested this idea: - chown chris.chris /dev/lpt0; chmod 660 /dev/lpt0 (myself, to make sure that neither user nor group match) - permission denied - chown chris.daemon /dev/lpt0 (may be the correct group) - permission denied - chown daemon.chris /dev/lpt0 (may be the correct user) - worked. So lpd sets the documented uid, but another gid. Unfortunately, ps apparently can't find out the effective gid of a process, so I had to settle for the real one, which is 0 (wheel). But that didn't tell me anything, of course. - chown chris.wheel /dev/lpt0 (the suspected gid of 0) - worked. Obviously, lpd succeeds only in changing the uid, but fails at the gid (if it tries at all, that is). I set the ownership to daemon.wheel to make at least that work. 18. I checked the LPRng changelog. Lo and behold, it mentions that very bug as fixed in 3.7.6. Unfortunately, that is the version I installed. Let's blame it on a wrong fix. About time the LPRng port gets updated, the current release is 3.8.4. Please tell the port maintainer. 19. Now for the client. Using SuSE's YaST configuration tool, I configured a simple network printer: ascii|remote printer on ser1:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/ascii:\ :rm=ser1:\ :rp=ascii:\ :bk:sh:mx#0: 20. lpq -Pascii on the client showed that the printer status was accessible. 21. lpr -Pascii /etc/printcap from the client produced the usual staircased text. Even an ASCII only apsfilter configuration on the server didn't work, and still doesn't. Because the printer stopped blinking, I'm sure that it got the text file directly, without apsfilter in between. I'm out of ideas. What about you out there? As workaround install apsfilter on the client, to compute print data on the client, so that the correct data stream enters the server. You should try to contact Garance A Drosihn [EMAIL PROTECTED] to ask, since he did a lot on the FreeBSD spooling system. Theoretically I think the input filter should be executed even when getting print data via network. He can tell you, if there is a bug in 4.4-RELEASE. Well now you installed LPRng on FreeBSD which normally is not necessary, since FreeBSD's lpd is not so stock and limited as all the other un-fixed versions around. For example printing to a remote printer and using an input filter is fixed in FreeBSD since a long time. So theoretically you can stay with FreeBSD lpd, since its not so bloated like LPRng. Not that its really bad, but I don't like it Then additionally send this report to the LPRng port maintainer so that an update gets releases. I hope both can help you. BTW: I already put both on Cc: ... Concerning lpd I'd remove the LPRng port if Garant has replied to you and I'm sure, that he will be helpful to you. But then you should re-install lpd from /usr/src, that shouldn't be a problem with FreeBSD ... Additionally you could then try to update to 4.5-RC, since then you can both work on the latest and greatest -STABLE version of FreeBSD, so that there every bug is shaken out ... And I remember people have merged something from -current into the printing subsystem, maybe this already helped. And please use apsfilter 7.2.1.

fetch through ftp-proxydoesn´t work on FreBSD 4.3-STABLE

P.S. I forgot about another problem I meet while setting up
printing. SETUP creates smbclient.conf that is not readble
by lpd. For me it was created as:
-rw--- 1 root daemon 156 Dec 12 16:41 smbclient.conf
to make printing work I had to chmod g+r on it.
I think this is an inconsistency in FreeBSD ...
The filterscript (forked by llpd) runs under permissions
daemon.wheel, but the spooldirs in FreeBSD by default are
created with permissions root.daemon.
I think this could easily be fixed, if you would
chown -R dameon.wheel /var/spool/lpd
and during apsfilter SETUP you should take care that owner
and group are now setup right to match daemon.wheel.
[ Cc'd to freebsd-stable ]
What do the lpd maintaining authorities in FreeBSD say ?
I haven't thought about permissions enough to say I have a
strong opinion on it, but my gut-level feeling is that the
spool directories are created with the right owner+group
(ie, root+daemon).
I inserted an echo "bla" /tmp/ into apsfilter
(lineprinter input filter).
The permissions of the resulting file were
daemon.wheel and not root.daemon like the spooldirs have
as default.
When printing to a Windows remote printer using smbclient
we need to store Windows logins and passwords into the
smbclient.conf file.
Therefore we wanted best protection for the file.
So we let the file owned by root and only readable by root.
Well, apsfilter is unable to read smbclient.conf, since
lpd lets the if run under daemon UID ...
So I thought, the permissions of the spooldirs are a bit
misleading or maybe wrong.
The question is, if lpd runs locally under UID "daemon".
Why do the spooldirs not belong to the same UID ???
I had no idea in the past, how apsfilters SETUP script
could check, under which permissions lpd runs, to create
spooldirs with proper permissions.
Therefore I use UID and GID of /var/spool/lpd, if present.
And this UID and GID value is also used for the smbclient.conf
file.
Well, and this fails ...
What irritates me a bit is, that ps -l tells me, that lpd runs
with UID 0 = root. But in fact the :if: runs as daemon.wheel.
So for me the confusion is now ...
a) why is it not safe to choose UID and GID of spooldirs in the
hope to get proper permissions for protecting files needed
at runtime of input filters ?
b) To followup a) are lpd's spooldirs wrong in lpd ?
If not, why not ?
Thanks for helping me improving apsfilter (or BSD) !
Best regards
