SSH is a transport layer protocol, HTTP is an application layer protocol. Both HTTP and SSH are application level transports, however both can be used to tunnel TCP connections. Therefore it is possible to use ssh over http. The windows putty client can use http proxies to make outbound connections as long as your http proxy is configured to allow CONNECT requests to port 22. If you using squid for example with a defaultish config you will need to update your proxy server configuration.

Re: LDM (Windows Dynamic Disks) in FreeBSD?
On 11/6/05, Andrew Brampton [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I think I've found the answer to my question already, but I wanted to be 100% sure. Okay, since you are so nice, let me answer this one :-) Can I read Window Dynamic Disk volumes from within FreeBSD? More precisely RAID-5 volume across multiple disks. I've googled and googled and I think the answer is no. The linux-ntfs project has a tool that can display information about the volume but the file system driver isn't fully developed yet. http://freebsd.rambler.ru/bsdmail/freebsd-current_2004/msg26639.html http://freebsd.rambler.ru/ is a nice web search for our mailing lists. In fact, we're planning on integrating it into FreeBSD.org So the state of things with windows dynamic disks in FreeBSD doesn't seem to have changed much since 2004. If there is no LDM support in FreeBSD, I think I'm going to port the userland linux-ntfs ldminfo tool to FreeBSD, however I have a quick question about GPL. If I port the code then obviously my version will have to be under the GPL. I was wondering how this impacts the BSD licence? I presume users of FreeBSD can happily use this tool, and hopefully one day it would be allowed in ports. But say I extended this tool into a file system driver (which I know is a big leap) would this code ever be considered for the Kernel, or would I have to code from scratch to avoid the GPL restrictions? I think most of the software in ports is GPL'ed. We'll be happy to see you offer a new port or support an existing one. As for the FreeBSD kernel, we can't use GPL'ed code in the default (generic) one, but we can use it as an optional feature, or as a loadable (kld) module.

You only need as much disk space where you are restoring as you actually used on the filesystem being dumped, so yes, if you really only used 2Gb then restoring to a 3Gb partition is fine. Just beware that a 3Gb partition before newfs will have less that 3Gb of usable space as some is taken up by filesystem overhead, and the 10% space is usually to be left free for speedier, less fragmented operation. But 2Gb of data will still fit comfortably. This is *one* of the reasons why dump is better than dd. dd just copies the whole slice, all 10Gb in this case, and then you'd be stuck :-) --Alex ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

For example, I have a netra T1 105 working as a bridge between two vlans in order to use ipfw+dummynet to create packet loss and latency tests in a platform that was already deployed (quick and dirty solution). At the moment I configured the machine to do the job and made some benchmarks but haven't yet optimized anything so I can benchmark it later on to see the optimizations effect. This is the first time Im working with a sparc64 box with freebsd and I would like to know what improvements can be done in terms of specific sparc64 optimizations (ex. gcc flags/cputype), kernel/tunables recommendations, comments onthis specific job (bridging and messing with the packets in layer 3) or any other usefull info.

Re: FreeBSD VPS providers
If you're really looking for a provider offering true FreeBSD virtual private server solution, chance are, they are most likely running jail systems. For everything else, your choice might be companies providing Xen, LVS, UML, or even vmware solutions although companies are less likely to offer the last option option. I suggest you do some more research if a jail based virtual private server solution will suite to your needs, e.g; you require a dedicated resource allocation (e.g, minimum guaranteed memory etc.) that you won't get from a shared server solution, or you need a full access to the virtual environment including software compilation, or even kernel compilation, as well as firewall configuration etc. Once you've finalized your requirements, you can now do another research on the technical approach used by each of those solutions and finally base your decision if a particular solution really satisfy your needs. hint: google for vps provider Good luck. -mark On 11/28/06, Eric [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, I am looking to move a website i run from its current provider (linux based shared box) to a VPS solution.

packages ports and portupgrade
Is there a difference in allocation of package building resources between v5 and v6 stable versions? I use both a v5 and v6 stable box. The v6 box is paid attention to a lot more closely, the v5 box is a once in awhile test machine. I noticed yesterday that portupgrade -aP on the v5 box led to most of the updates happening via package, whereas the v6 box is building most of them via ports.

deletion of rules in a range (for example, 500-550).
You could expand the rules before calling ipfw:
ipfw delete $(jot - 500 550 1)
or, if you use zsh:
ipfw delete {500..550}
It would also be possible to extend the ipfw 'delete' rule parser to
handle ranges.

What Did I Do To My Server?!
75Hi; I thought I'd backup the working drive of my server to my new .5 teraflop HD. When I tried, something went haywire.

Suggested Books Guides on small bisiness LAN with FreeBSD
Hi Guys, I'm looking for advice or suggestions on how to [re]design a small business network with FreeBSD. I know that's a pretty broad topic -- I'm not looking for a simple answer, so much as reference materials. Background: for over 5 years we've had our business running with a few FreeBSD servers. An external Internet connected box serves smtp, imap, http, ftp, dns (external and LAN internal) and http-proxy. Another server (on LAN behind NAT router) has Samba file print services, lpd and some other things. I guess what I'm looking for is best practice suggestions for configuring all this optimally. Problems we have currently include DNS -- if the Internet connection goes down, the server chokes, and we can't even get internal DNS. And security issues, eg: should the email accounts reside on an Internet-exposed server? O'Reilly sells Windows to Linux Migration Toolkit which sounds like some of what I'm looking for, except that it's for Linux -- but I've dabbled with that kludge enough to probably apply the concepts to FreeBSD ;) Any other suggestions on good books, web sites, etc? -Wayne B. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Suggested Books Guides on small bisiness LAN with FreeBSD
You can make your FreeBSD servers your DNS servers and configure them to look upsteam to your ISP's DNS servers for servers not known.

So clients can just send jobs to those printers directly. -Derek At 02:52 PM 11/29/2006, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Guys, I'm looking for advice or suggestions on how to [re]design a small business network with FreeBSD.

Could you please show the actual out-put when zope fails
to install?
It's long. I'll put it at the end.
Even better might be to know what commands you issued
and the output of your failed backup, which might let on
what is actually wrong, since simple pax/tar/dump operations
rarely (never) go haywire for _no_ reason.
cp -R /* /ad2
At a guess, you still have zope listed in /var/db/pkg and need
to make deinstall or pkg_delete before you can reinstall it.
I tried everything I could think of...that and a whole lot more. I got my
clients' sites up and running, thank goodness, but now I'm trying to get my
site up (on another instance). Here's the error, and I don't understand it,
because there is no Data.fs.lock and the permissions should be just fine

Properly set up there should not be a problem exposing it though - most mail servers are built to do just that.

Wayne, If you've been using FreeBSD in production for five years, you are probably well beyond any O'Reilley offering, imho. We can all benefit by (yet) another look at man topic, and that's probably gonna be your most productive resource, since it will allow you to address your specific issues without having to read any ol' dumbed-down version of the documentation :) As for DNS issues, my thought is that if your external DNS server works then leave it alone and implement a separate internal DNS server to handle your internal traffic. Just start with the same configuration you have on external and tweak it as needed. It doesn't have to be authoritative. Also you are likely also running DHCP, which I'd recommend you move from your external DNS server to the new internal DNS server (if that is your current setup).

degraded RAID performance after OS upgrade, and drives added.
We updated to 6.1 this weekend and added 3 300gb drives to the external raid cabinet, they were to go on a seprate controller but the server happens to have a few other boxes on top making it impossible at that time, so we put the 3x300 (RAID5) , upgraded the OS and performance is very poor.

Re: simple question...how to show packages which depend upon a particular port
in message [EMAIL PROTECTED],
wrote Dino Vliet thusly...
I'm almost ashamed to ask this BUT I really don't know how to find
the packages which depend upon a particular port.
In this case, a portversion -l showed mysql-client in that
list. I can't recall having installed it by myself
Did you install mysql-server with default options? Actually, in
mysql51-server port, there is no option to disable install of the
client portion.
I wanted to know what the packages are which depend on it. Can
somebody show me this command..and if it will be a RTFM
answer, please tell me which FM:-)
Here are some of the ways not requiring connection to Internet I
know ...
- running make -V {LIB,RUN,BUILD}_DEPENDS in a port directory
also lists the appropriate type of dependency list, so would
running make pretty-print-{run,build}-depends-list;
- pkg_info(1) w/ -[rR] options lists the dependencies for given
ports|packages;
- ${PORTSDIR:-/usr/ports}/INDEX* lists dependencies for each port
(which may need post processing to be human readable);
- sysutils/pkg_tree port creates text tree of the dependencies;
As for FM, see ...
- pkg_info(1) pkg_tree(7) man pages;
- ${PORTSDIR:-/usr/ports}/Mk/bsd.port.mk
- Parv
