Re: samba authentication problems
Did you do a make clean before the make re-install?

Re: Think outside of the box (Gawd, I hate that term)
Borrowing ideas is essential to progress in the computer industry. Technically; you measure progress not by market results, but by the spread of ideas. The value of ideas lies not in how much money the one company that owns those ideas makes, but by how readily those ideas are given away and used by everybody as a community good. It is nice to be an idealist, but the reality is that a lot of superior technology has gone by the wayside - its line snuffed out only because it was unable to gain sufficiently in the market place. Microsoft did not gain its position because of superior technology in the products they sold, but in "superior" abililty in the marketplace - sometimes abilities that we question should be exercised - eg may not have been for the common good. Even (or perhaps I should say especially) IBM and MicroSoft are part of this ecology of ideas; you need look no further than MS DOS or the 5150 (and their competition) to see the importance of this. The alpha microprocessor comes to mind:killed by DEC "stealth marketing". A vastly superior technology to peecees, yet beaten in the end by better marketing and price pressures. There are many, many other examples of this axiom.

Did I do something wrong?
I received the information for my dedicated FreeBSD box today from the hosting company. It's an unmanaged box which was supposed to be running 4.8 but is running 5.1 because they said 4.8 would not install (Doubtful to me, sounds like an order mix up) I did as instructed and changed my login password to the account they set for me and the SU password. Next I found that they did a minimal install so through sysinstall I went to post install configurations and loaded in all distribution sets including ports. When this finished I installed my editor of choice, pico. In order to use pico after just installing it you must exit out from root and log in as root again. I typed exit and was back to my account prompt. For some reason I typed uname -a to see what info would show up. After looking at the output I typed su and received back "who are you?" I was surprised at the response so I typed su again, same response. Now, not knowing what to think, I said well I'll try logging in again. I'm still trying to log on! I'm locked out of the box. I know this is rather long but I just want to make sure I didn't do anything wrong. I'm not new to FreeBSD but this really has me puzzled. Did I screw up? Did they make a faulty install?

Vinum on an existing system
Greetings! I have recently taken over a machine (FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE 7/31/03) that is a mail server (qmail, imap, apache2, pop3, etc) and due to the companies relience upon the machine, want to use vinum to mirror the drive. I've been reading the vinim information and a great site about setting it up. However, one question remains. It seems as though it should have been setup from them start. Can an existing installation be converted to vinum withouth reinstalling everything or should I just setup a cron job to dump the drive contents to the other dirve. Both drives are IDE 40GB.

I don't think there are any special requirements for trafshow - perhaps you need to have the bpf option enabled in the kernel (which it is by default?). Install it and try it it's in the ports under /usr/ports/net/trafshow. ipfw can count network traffic using different rules, so for example you could count all traffic bound for a certain address or interface using something like: ipfw add count all from any to 192.168.0.1 80 ipfw can also (very usefully) count traffic on a per uid basis. ipfw does have to be enabled in the kernel though.

The X11 display is badly formed in two ways: 1) It looks as though horizontal sync is not solid, because I see two overlaid images on the screen, so the letter "I" looks like: "II", and 2) The cursor on the screen is displaced from its "logical" position, so that buttons are highlighted when the cursor moves to some point far from where the button appears on the screen (and "click" there brings on the appropriate response). > Any ideas what's happening?

Because I know of no setup that "would automatically enter your IP address into the relayers file and thereby allow you to send mail." Understand, of course, that sendmail has nothing to do with IP addresses harvested from POP requests. That little code-snippet from sendmail.cf relies on an external file, presumably generated by a POP server. It used to be that patches existed for, say, qpopper, so the POP daemon would log IP numbers. But, nowadays, if you want POP-before-SMTP, you should really use DRAC (Dynamic Relay Authorization Control). This means your first task is to recompile qpopper (if that is your POP server, of course), for use with DRAC. Say you have it log IP addresses to /usr/local/etc/dracd.db, then you could edit sendmail.cf as follows. You add a line that says: Kdrac btree -o /usr/local/etc/dracd Then, at the right place, you add: ### The following four lines are for drac. R$* $: $&{client_addr} R$+ $: $(drac $1 $: ? $) R? $@ $#error $@ 5.7.1 $: "550 Relaying denied" R$+ $@ $#OK Only this way will it go "automatically". :) Check out: http://mail.cc.umanitoba.ca/drac/index.html Having said all that, why not use SMTP AUTH, while you are at it? :) - Mark ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

D-Link PCMCIA trouble

I've tried it with my 4.8-STABLE, but I guess that was just a waste of time, since it's a 32-bit card, or am I mistaken?

No data seem to ever reach the cable... Is there a fix for this? If not, is it planned?

Re: ISPs blocking SMTP connections from dynamic IP address space

How to use 4 buttons mouse?
Hi Everybody! Does anybody know how i can use 4-buttons mouse in FreeBSD 5.1 Do I need to rebuild Kernel? Maybe I can just do some changes in my /etc/X11/X86Config ?

FreeBSD fdisk/sysinstall
I tried to invoke sysinstall to write an additional FreeBSD slice to the disk I was currently booted from. I intentionally chose the W option to write the changes since I didn't want to do an installtion. But I got an error that I could not write to the disk. Why is that? Because I'm booted from that disk? Or because the can only be one slice? Don't know. Just wondering. Is there a neat fdisk for FreeBSD like the linux fdisk (which is pfdisk derived, I believe). The FreeBSD fdisk is really archaic and I was not able to specify start/end block numbers. The calulated cyl numbers seemed to overlap with the previous partition so I bailed out and left it as it was and put up this question instead. -- Chris Christoph P. U.

FreeBSD - Secure by DEFAULT ?? [hosts.allow]
Hi, I need to know what the implications are to make use of the hosts.allow file on a FreeBSD Production Server (ISP Setup)? The reason I'm asking, is that I've recently decommisioned a Linux SendMail Server to a FreeBSD Exim Server, but with no Firewall (IPTABLES) yet. Besides the fact that it only runs EXIM and Apache, is it necessary to Configure rc.Firewall? or can I only make use of the hosts.allow file? Currently I would only like to allow SSH access from my Home Network, instead of allowing the WORLD. I've seen OpenBSD Servers using hosts.deny and hosts.allow files, but based on the new "Access Control File", it is all merged together in one file: # hosts.allow access control file for "tcp wrapped" applications. # $FreeBSD: src/etc/hosts.allow,v 1.8.2.7 2002/04/17 19:44:22 dougb Exp $ # I take that I should allow the other Services, in this order: sshd : myhomepc : allow exim : ALL : allow httpd : ALL : allow ftpd : ALL : allow ALL : ALL : deny What kind of protection does FreeBSD need by Default? Since OpenBSD goes around saying: "SECURE BY DEFAULT" !? Just asking.

installation problem in the very beginning
Hello, I am a newby of FreeBSD and I was triying to install the 4.8 version in a Pentium 200 MMX, 96 MB RAM and 3.4 GB of hard disk, and I got a problem in the very beginning of the installation. I have written both boot disks (kernel.flp and mfsroot.flp) and everything seems to go fine until a point at which the computer stops and shows me this: md0: raw partition size !=slice size md0: start0, end 8638, size 8639 md0c: start0, end 8639, size 8640 md0: truncating raw partition md0: rejecting partition in BSD label: it isn't entirely within the slice md0: start0, end 8638, size 8639 md0c: start0, end 8639, size 8640 The question is: am I going to be capable to install FreeBSD on this machine?

Problems with Intel SE7500WV2
(Apologies for duplicate messages, if any. Sent this yesterday but it didn't seem to make it through). Hi, I've got an Intel SE7500WV2 in a SR1200 chassis with 2 Xeon 2.4GHz, 2GB of ECC RAM and 2 Maxtor Maxtor 6E040L0/NAR61590. The system installs fine, but when booting it afterwards I first get a couple of error-messages from the disks ("ad4: UDMA ICRC error reading fsbn 43327 of 0-119 (ad4 bn 43327; cn 42 tn 15 sn 46) retrying" after which it falls back to PIO-mode), and then, when trying to transfer data over the network (it has 2 em-cards onboard), I get errors in the transfers. I replaced the board with a new one from Intel thinking it was the board having errors. I get the errors with both 4.8-RELEASE and 5.1-RELEASE. I've tried googling a bit but haven't really seen any posts about other folks having these problems. I've got an identical machine running - it displays the same ATA-errors but on that one, I can put the disks back in UDMA133-mode with atacontrol and then all is well untill next reboot. Not really an "elegant" solution, but I had to get that one running quickly. My first thought after installing the machine and seeing the erorrs was to try to cvsup to a later version, but when trying to fetch cvsup I get: # fetch /cvsup-16.1e.tgz && pkg_add cvsup-16.1e.tgz Receiving cvsup-16.1e.tgz (2148280 bytes): 100% 2148280 bytes transferred in 10.0 seconds (209.47 kBps) tar: Skipping to next header tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--format violated tar: Child returned status 1 tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors pkg_add: tar extract of /root/cvsup-16.1e.tgz failed! pkg_add: unable to extract '/root/cvsup-16.1e.tgz'! -and dmesg logs: NMI ISA 20, EISA 4 NMI ISA 20, EISA 4 NMI ISA 30, EISA 4 If trying to SCP the package to the machine I get: # scp cvsup-16.1e.tgz 192.168.24.241: Password: cvsup-16.1e.tgz0% | | 0 --:-- ETAReceived disconnect from 192.168.24.241: 2: Corrupted MAC on input. lost connection -And once again, dmesg logs: NMI ISA 20, EISA 4 Verbose dmesg-output follows: Copyright (c) 1992-2003 The FreeBSD Project.

Re: are all dsl modems the same?
No. At first you need to know the type of your connection (PPPoA or PPPoE). If you want the FreeBSD box hold the public IP, you'll need configure the ADSL modem as a bridge, otherwise, configure as a router. Some modems don't do bridge PPPoA. Ask to your supplier if yours does. We have worked with modems Alcatel and DLink perfectly. The 3Com seems to be a good modem, too. There are also other modems, too. But I'm talking just about the modems there I know.

FreeBSD programming question
Not sure if this is the right list or not, but I could really use some pointers. How can I code trap serial port interrupts in my C program? For example, I want to read values from a serial device every user-specified number of seconds, calculate some stuff and then sit for a while. Should the serial device decide it wants to send some data unsolicited, I would like to enter an interrupt service routine, handle the communication, and then return to the previous loop. I can get the loop going by using sleep(n), but I don't know how to write the ISR in C, and (additionally) make it such that it will run on any *nix like platform. Any pointers, HOWTO's, or examples would be greatly appreciated!

Don't know precisely about pop before sendmail, but setting up sendmail so that it requires authentication before it will relay a message from a "foreign" location is quite do-able, and can easily be integrated with the standard system sendmail. Probably the easiest way to get going is to follow the instructions at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/smtp-auth.html The line: TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN')dnl in the sendmail.mc will allow most widely used MUA's that speak SMTP to the mail server to authenticate before sending a message, although working out exactly which buttons to press and which checkboxes to check in the client is another problem. You will need to create real user accounts for each person, and configure the MUA to supply the password for that account to the server. I know first hand that this works with the Mozilla mail client and with Microsoft Outlook Express.

Network performance tuning for large objects
Hi! We are running a proxy server on freeBSD 4.6.2 and one of our customer requirements is that the users will be accessing ~500k files. During testing the max req/sec the proxy server can sustain without the user robots complaining is about 200 req/s, as the number of req. go up, connection errors appear on the client side. I followed the kernel tuning section in the handbook and increased the nmbufs and cluster to kern.ipc.nmbclusters: 65536 kern.ipc.nmbufs: 65536 But even then the errors appear. I read about these parameters net.inet.tcp.sendspace: 65536 net.inet.tcp.recvspace: 57344 but I dont know if I should increase these and the above one, because I read it might cause boot time crash. Also, if the testing is done with normal sized objects, then the proxy is easily able to sustain more than 1200 req/s. The network card is Intel 100Mb/s. I would appreciate if anyone can suggest some tuning tips. Thanks you for your time. -Pranav *** Pranav A.

FreeBSD Install failure
Folks I have been trying to install FreeBSD 5.0 onto a P4 2.8 with two 75 gig hard drives, one has WINXP on it and the other has nothing. It also has a 48 speed cdrw in it, I have gone into cmos and turned it down to dma33, I have tried using theset hw.ata.ata_dma="1" and hw.ata.atapi_dma="1" and also tried the set hint.acpi.o.disabled="1" with no luck, it always hangs with the below error. ata1-slave:ATAPI identify retries exceeded ad0: Read command Timeout Tag=0 serv=0 -resetting ata0:resetting devices and then just sits there, any help at resolving this would be appreciated.

Even if ip blocking is an improvement, it won't stop spam. Agreed, does anyone know why requiring reverse DNS isn't "good enough"? I've asked both AOL and Time Warner but have received no response. These Residential/Dynamic blocks are usually reversed. And they cause the vast majority of problems that originate in North America. Frankly, alot of people simply blacklist 24.* for this reason. If your provider's mail servers suck, and they have blocks tagged as Dynamic, and you have no other options, it's time to make a deal with someone to relay your mail for you.

Set the CC and CXX environment variables to specify using distcc as the compiler, per the distcc docs. Not all ports respect these variables, but those that don't are broken and you should file a PR (note that using distcc itself is not supported, so any problems you encounter with distcc itself should be reported to the distcc developers).
