Hey, I read that message about Freeradius not being able to access /dev/null in
a setup where /dev is mounted on an mfs -based filesystem.I'm running similar
setup (for years now) - OpenBSD on a USB stick. EVERYTHING is mounted
read-only, except /var, /tmp, /dev and /jails, which are mfs - based
And if the FS is mounted rw, do you have the issue ?
Best Regards,
Strahil Nikolov

Hello Again,
I followed Stuart's recommendations,
in fstab, / has read-write permissions;
also, I mounted /dev as ramdisk, ( I executed "MAKEDEV all" in /dev_src
directory for once)

Hi,
Thanks to Stuart's recommendations, I made progress but got stuck at
another point:
When i mount /dev on fstab as this:
swap /dev mfs rw,async,noatime,nosuid,-s2M,-i8,-P/dev_src 0 0
Freeradius doesn't work. Here error message:
Error opening /dev/null: Permission denied
I've changed /dev/null

I have quite a few machines patched like this.

Indeed, but an unbootable network appliance thousands of miles away,
is much much worse.

Last year I had to configure an OpenBSD 6.5 firewall for use in a
remote location, and was concerned about power loss corrupting the
filesystem and making the system unbootable

In Linux, the kernel can force flushing the disk cache (which also can be
disabled ) via fsync() call . That feature is called 'write barrier'. As
I'm not a developer, I never read that portion of the source of openBSD , so I
got no idea if similar logic can be used in openBSD.

As "sync" is the default...yes, I think you are.
File systems are complicated. Making them work robustly is even
more complicated. A

It's a good point, per
I guess it boils down to a matter of preference and business requirements.
"slow writes" vs "no writes".

Hi Misc,
I have a firewall device and I'm using OpenBSD on it. There is an
electricity problem where the device runs. Therefore, I have to run the
"fsck -y" command regularly at startup due to the electricity problem. To
overcome this, I want to use readonly file system.
