PPPoed crashed!!
I'm running pppoed on freebsd-4.9. It is running smoothly. However it crashes sometime with a pppoed.core file dumpped at the root directory. gdb -c pppoed.core shows that it crashed with signal 11 segmentation fault. I'm running the package as it came with the os. I have not upgraded any thing except the kernel which I have customized for my needs. Is this a bug or am i missing some parameters in the kernel? with regards, Bikrant ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: ftp server
Hello, I've got a 4.9 system and i'm out looking for an ftp server for it as i do not want to use the base server. I've heard good reviews of pure-ftpd, but i'm getting errors: can not find the ftp account and it won't authenticate. I've also tried proftpd, but although i find it capable i don't like it's slow response, even with identd lookups off. Features that i'm looking for, chroot anonymous users to a specific area, enable both anonymous and real users, virtual user and quota support, band width management, and optional secure communications. Most importantly i need it to work with ipfilter/ipnat. Using the base ftp server on a test box i can connect but i keep getting an error, can not build data connection, this is from a box external to the firewall. Thanks. Dave. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello.. I would (and do) choose Pure-FTPd since it has a very nice history without alot of security problems. Both proftpd and wu-ftpd has a quite bad security history and I prefer to not use them at all because of that. Pure-FTPd has support for SSL/TLS, FXP, has native-language support, chroot, allow virtual users, MySQL, Bandwidth limitations, Works perfectly both with or without a firewall, and so on, the list is long.. I've personally used it since the spring of 1999 and I havn't heard of _any_ remote root exploit yet so I consider it the best ftp daemon ever.

speed issues
Sorry about the repost: Hello list I have a freebsd 4.9 on my computer wich is conected to a 100Mbps network. When downloading or uploading files from this freebsd using ftp a have decent transfer rates (above 5 MB/s). But in this network we also use DC for file sharing. And using the DC protocol i only get rates below 1MB/s for upload or download. I also get these messages in my first console: Limiting icmp unreach response from 268 to 200 packets per second Limiting icmp unreach response from 277 to 200 packets per second Limiting icmp unreach response from 268 to 200 packets per second Limiting icmp unreach response from 273 to 200 packets per second Limiting icmp unreach response from 264 to 200 packets per second Limiting icmp unreach response from 272 to 200 packets per second Limiting icmp unreach response from 270 to 200 packets per second Limiting icmp unreach response from 260 to 200 packets per second Limiting icmp unreach response from 264 to 200 packets per second Limiting icmp unreach response from 265 to 200 packets per second Limiting icmp unreach response from 267 to 200 packets per second Limiting icmp unreach response from 246 to 200 packets per second Limiting icmp unreach response from 208 to 200 packets per second Limiting icmp unreach response from 209 to 200 packets per second Limiting icmp unreach response from 204 to 200 packets per second i tried modifing the value of the sysctl variable net.inet.icmp.icmplim from 200 to 1000 but it had no efect.

Sound Blaster 16 on FreeBSD 5.2
Hello everyone I'm trying to use a Sound Blaster 16 ISA card in FreeBSD 5.2.1. When I try recompiling the kernel as the Handbook specifies in order to make it work, config returns Config:277: Devices with 0 units are not likely to be correct If I remove the 0 (from sbc0 to sbc), config returns a syntax error message. I've tried a few hundred permutations in /boot/device.hints with the irqs, drqs and flags and it hasn't worked it always returns these messages: alloc_resources probe_and_attach returned 6 What am I doing wrong? I never had any problems to make the sound card work in FreeBSD 4.9... BTW how do I tell the computer not to recover vi sessions? Thanks a lot in advace.

Re: sshd: cannot disable password authentication, users canalwayslogin with password.
Okay, I figured out the problem myself. I should set ChallengeResponseAuthentication no to disable password authentication. Zhang Weiwu wrote: Hello.

Sendmail aliases mystery
Hello! After updating my firewall from RELENG_4_8 to RELENG_4_9 I observe an interesting behaviour of Sendmail (using the base system Sendmail). It doesn't seem to honor it's aliases database after server is started, but starts to do so once I run 'cd /etc/mail make restart'. I have the following line in /etc/mail/aliases: root: [EMAIL PROTECTED] However, the daily periodic reports (which is essentially the only mail this box sends) are sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED], which in this case means that they essentially go nowhere. When the system is in this state and I use 'mail root' from the command line, the mail also goes to [EMAIL PROTECTED] However, after I manually restart Sendmail as described above, mail to root starts to go to it's destined address ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). The dates on /etc/mail/aliases and /etc/mail/aliases.db indicate that 'newaliases' has been run after modifying the aliases file. I have run it a couple of times extra, just for the good measure, but it doesn't seem to change Sendmail's behaviour. grep sendmail /etc/rc.conf: sendmail_enable=NO grep root /etc/mail/aliases: # 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: [EMAIL PROTECTED] postmaster: root bin:root bind: root daemon: root games: root kmem: root man:root news: root nobody: root operator: root pop:root sshd: root system: root toor: root tty:root uucp: root xten: root abuse: root # noc: root security: root ftp:root # hostmaster: root # webmaster:root -- Toomas Aas | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.raad.tartu.ee/~toomas/ * 24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case.

Make a diff (diff -u format) against the original sources, and save that into the 'files' subdirectory of the port as 'patch-some::filename'. There's plenty of examples in that and other ports which you can refer to for guidance. The patch will be applied to the sources automatically, and after the checksumming stage. Note that cvsup(1) should ignore your extra patch file, so it might cause odd problems building the port in future when the Inkscape port gets updated again.

It's hard to say quite what the problem is with the small amount of information you've included. Certainly none of the software supplied with the OS should ever crash with a segmentation violation, and it's definitely a bug if that happens reproducibly. On the other hand, segmentation faults are most commonly seen as a symptom of faulty memory sticks. Crashes due to bad memory will happen quite unpredictably, although they will tend to happen more when the machine is under load and there's a lot of memory IO going on. If the crash you're seeing happens repeatably and always occurs in the same place, then it must be a programming error. In which case, please report the problem using send-pr(1). Getting a backtrace from gdb will be helpful -- as will keeping hold of the core file you have to make available to a developer should one request it.

Why is the chmod values in /home insecure by default?
Hello.. I'm running FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE-p5 and when I create new user accounts with adduser, the home directories are world readable/executable.. Sure, it might be useful if I want to publish a website in my public_html, but yet, it should be up to the user if he want to have his homedir world-readable, but by default it should be set to chmod 700 or chmod 750 if each user has their own group imho. However, I saw that adduser had a config file (/etc/adduser.conf) but the there is no manual entry for adduser.conf and I can't find any example for it.. How can I change the default permission for new home-directories?

growfs on file-backed fs
Hello all, according to the handbook, I can create a file-backed fs (Example 12-5. Creating a New File-Backed Disk with vnconfig) # dd if=/dev/zero of=newimage bs=1k count=5k .. # vnconfig -s labels -c vn0 newimage # disklabel -r -w vn0 auto # newfs vn0c ... # mount /dev/vn0c /mnt I've been trying to do that, and end up with a file that I can turn into an mfsroot.gz (or mdroot.gz for that matter). But I can't get my device to boot from a flash device using a 'home-built' mfsroot.gz. I've tried various combinations of switches for vnconfig, disklabel and newfs, but nothing wants to allow it to play the way I need. When I replace the mfsroot.gz with mfsroot.flp from the floppy startup images, then it boots. I have, in the past done a growfs on the mfsroot.flp, in order to make it big enough to hold the files I need. But I'd rather just do the commands as described in example 12-5 above. What do I need to add to that to make it a bootable mfsroot?

Pppoe is one of the major work horses of FBSD. There being an bug is very unlikely in 4.9. Odds are you have mis-configured an configuration file. If you are running pppoe under gdb as standard production method, then run pppoe without gdb in the way.

I installed FreeBSD 5.2.1 without X. Since I intend to use the system as an internal server for our research group, I installed no package except for mod_php4-4.3.5_7,1 and mc-4.6.0_7. Apache-1.3.29_3 and a few other packages are installed as well as dependent packages of those two. The security level was set to 2 during installation. The problem is apache won't start by boot and can't be restarted by apachectl. I tried to find the solution from the manual and from searching the web, but no luck. I tried by changing configuration of rc.conf (e.g., enable/disable security and inetd) and checking httpd.conf, still no luck. I dont't know where is problem. Would please give me advice. Many thanks. Assuming the daemon doesn't start, what happens when you run: #apachectl configtest If no errors are reported, what output do you get from the console when you type: #apachectl start If that fails to start the daemon (test with #ps ax | grep httpd), Just a hint here - you might need the 'w' flag to see the httpdas in ps -axw | grep httpd Depends on how wide the display line is. Of course I usually use the 'u' flag which makes the output line longer, so... jerry try: #/usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache.sh start and also check the logs for messages that might help understand the problem.

I have used the ng_fec netgraph module with both broadcom 5703X and HP NC7170 nics (uses em driver). This is how to set it up: First you have to have the ng_fec module loaded. Then, # ngctl mkpeer fec dummy fec # ngctl msg fec0: add_iface 'bge0' # ngctl msg fec0: add_iface 'bge1' Obviously replace bge with em or whatever other driver you are using. ng_fec supports up to 4 links. At this point, you will have a fec0 interface that you can manipulate normally with ifconfig. I have noticed that sometimes I have to bring the interface up and down a couple of times to get it to start passing traffic. Whenever you 'ifconfig up' or assign an address to fec0 it resets the bundle. One thing that is annoying is that ng_fec doesn't work with vlans. There is an ng_vlan module that was recently released, but ng_fec doesn't work with it because it isn't quite like other netgraph modules. Almost all of my freebsd machines use vlans, so I am not making heavy use of ng_fec. We aren't pushing enough data to make it really necessary anyway. There is also ng_one2many which does implement failover and channel bonding but not using the etherchannel technique.

Dependency hell
Hello all, It's been awhile since I used FreeBSD but I've been itching to try 5.x so I installed it the other day. Im having big problems with the ports collection and dependencies even though I've read through multiple docs on using portupgrade which is suppose to make dealing with dependencies easy. I apoligize if I'm missing something obvious here but I'd appreciate any help because I am not seeing any easy solutions. Problem in a nutshell: I install FBSD 5.2.1 Grab the latest ports tree portsdb -Uu Now,for example, I use portupdate to install a port that requires the latest version of expat - so expat is upgraded and I now have libexpat.so.5 Xterm no longer works because it depends on libexpat.so.4 Making a simple symlink from libexpat.so.4 to libexpat.so.5 will allow xterm to run again - but of course that's a dirty disgusting way to do things. From what I understood, pkgdb is the tool to fix this, but running pkgdb -F will not prompt me to change xterm dependencies from libexpat.so.4 to libexpat.so.5. This has been the case with a handful of other libraries that have been upgraded. Surely I don't need to recompile Xfree86 and everything else thats looking for libexpat.so.4 or another library that has been upgraded...right??? Heres an example with pango, which was upgraded with portupgrade.

cvsup stable
Hi all, I'd like to raise a question on cvsup. I'm an enthousiastic user of cvsup to keep up to date. I always use to stable-supfile Last week I installed a 4.9 machine ran a cvsup. Rebuilt the whole world and my kernel and ... ended up with 4.10 beta. A few aday later ran a cvsup again. Same story. I know FBSD is stable but do I have to rely beta's.

Amavisd-new errors
Hi, This question does not concern FreeBSD only, I know... But here it goes. I am working on a mailserver that has antispam and antivirus functionality. I gathered some courage and read articles at O'reilly and Daemonnews to build-my-own. Also did some extensive Googling. The stuff I use: Postfix + Courier-IMAP + Amavis-new + ClamAV + Spamassassin (and probably Mimedefang). Of course on FreeBSD ;) Postfix runs just fine. Courier Imap-ssl and pop3-ssl too. Clamscan and Clamd are running fine. I have amavisd running in debug mode (/usr/local/sbin/amavisd debug). Normal mail gets scanned and all works well. But when I send a mail with a test virus (eicar), it is recognized by clam/amavis and the mail doesn't get trough. But I do want a notification mail to be sent to the user. This doesn't happen. The messages I get from Amavis debug output: lookup: (scalar) matches, result=[EMAIL PROTECTED] Apr 19 17:11:48 blabla.xs4all.nl amavisd[403]: (00403-03) TROUBLE in check_mail: virus_or_banned quar+notif FAILED: can't build entity: no body, and not multipart at /usr/local/sbin/amavisd line 4700, GEN34 line 79. Looks like a perl error? I upgraded perl to 5.6.1 and recompiled Amavis + dependencies from ports. But I still get these errors. Running FreeBSD 4.8 - Security (using freebsd-update).

I know FBSD is stable but do I have to rely beta's. Ah... It's that time of year again. We get to do the whole 'what is 4-STABLE' thread for the umpteenth time. Here's how it works: you're tracking the RELENG_4 code branch, which gets you system version 4.x-STABLE -- well, most of the time. Actually, that system version number and tag is pretty arbitrary. It's just a snapshot out of the ever-evolving set of code which is the RELENG_4 branch. Every so often the will be a new release made from this branch. Usually something like 3 times a year. Around that point the system version will go through all sorts of changes relatively quickly. It will start as 4.9-STABLE, then become 4.10-BETA. After a while it will become 4.10-RC (as in 'Release Candidate'), and maybe even 4.10-RC2. Eventually the release engineering team will be satisfied, and the label will become 4.10-RELEASE. However, that only lasts for a vanishingly short time: just long enough to create the RELENG_4_10 branch. Then the label becomes 4.10-STABLE again for the next 3 months or so. (Well, actually in this case, probably for ever after, as 4.10 is the last release planned to be made from the RELENG_4 branch.) Do not be alarmed by the what the label says. There are not massive changes to the source code happening at the precise instant the the change from -STABLE to -BETA is made. Those changes will have been going into RELENG_4 continually throughout the preceeding months[1]. In fact, what -BETA signifies is an emphasis on testing and bug-fixing rather than introducing new functionality. That means the -BETA code is actually probably a bit more stable that the -STABLE code, although there's really very little measurable difference. With all of the testing being done, the code should reach a peak of perfection right around the time that 4.10 is released, although (annoyingly) each release does tend to generate a small flood of PRs and fixes immediately *after* it happens. Cheers, Matthew [1] If you find this alarming, then you should be tracking one of the X.Y-RELEASE branches: those only get security and major bug fixes. -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Marlow Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

I have always added device pcm to my kernel config file. You can also just kldload the sound module.

Which Device for LCD on Serial Port
G'Day! I am trying to set up LCDd on my 1U server, and it requires a device=[device name] line. In my dmesg, I get a listing of sio0 and sio1 (and the manual for the motherboard states that it's the second serial connector). dmesg output reveals : sio1 at port 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 on isa0 sio1: type 16550A In the /dev/ directory, there is no sio1 special file. However, the cuaa1, cuala1 and tty stuff is there. I am working with : FreeBSD azurite 5.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.2-RELEASE #1: Mon Feb 2 00:38:21 MST 2004 LCDd 0.4.3, LCDproc Protocol 0.3 (from the ports) So, what line do I need to use? device=/dev/sio1 obviously won't work, and I think I should be using the device=/dev/cuaa1 line because I am looking for sending data to the LCD rather than recieving from it. (though, I would like to use the built in menus to handle configuration stuff, but will settle for just a nice display).
