No - unless of course you wish to. Webmin does not use Apache. It has

DNS, DHCP, MySQL, Apache, Postfix etc.

I have a feeling that sendmail very specifically *doesn't* have an easy way to

may even be a FAQ).

I can't instantly think of a way round it, but if I do I'll let you know.

Re: netcraft uptime

Evren Yurtesen wrote:
  

Hi,

I see that netcraft uptime doesnt function because the kernel timer is
set to 1000 by default in freebsd 6.x
So perhaps setting kern.hz=100 fixes the problem? What about things
getting wrapped in 497 days? How are there some FreeBSD hosts which
have 1600+days uptime? how do they manage it? I am just trying to
figure out how to do the same in my systems :)

Thanks,
Evren






Yes, I believe the problem is the kernel timer. Older versions of
FreeBSD had a 100Hz timer. A Debian server of mine started showing
uptime again in Netcraft when I recompiled the kernel with 100Hz timer
setting.
As for the 497 days problem, I think this is Linux specific. I don't
know however if it will exist in FreeBSD 6.X with timer set to 100Hz.
Managing to get 1600 days uptime requires very solid hardware, possibly
with redundant (maybe hot swap) components and stable power. A UPS is
necessary and probably a generator, as during this time there is going
to be a blackout that will probably outlast your battery. FreeBSD is
actually the easiest (and less costly) part of the setup: It will,
simply, run all this time,
From what I can see, the 32bit timer part used in TCP rolls over after 
497 days. That is why they can not detect usage over 497 days.
Netcraft says Additionally HP-UX, Linux, NetApp NetCache, Solaris and 
recent releases of FreeBSD cycle back to zero after 497 days,



 no sweat :)
  
Well, I could do over 500 days with a small ups and a 10 year old 
machine. There is almost no blackouts around here. When there is, it doesnt

last more than 1-3 minutes once in 2-3 years.

Anyway, we will see if netcraft will show 0 days after 497 but it would 
be a shame really :)


Thanks,
Evren

Well, that kills that. Only thing I could think of is setuid mount_ntfs. It's 
really weird, cause I can't get ntfs to mount under normal userid even with 
correct permissions. What you can do shouldn't be possible for 2 or 3 
reasons. I wonder if it's just ntfs, can you mount another partition as

uses /usr/local/www/data for the install.
   
the more i look at it, the more it seems like its a mailgraph
issue.
   
i guess I am curious of the apache20 default of /usr/local/www/data
was around so long its just what everyone assumes, but from what I
can tell, thats not the recommended practice. isnt it better to
install to /usr/local/www/mailgraph and then alias things?
   
Web-based applications will generally install into a subdirectory of
/usr/local/www independent of what web server you use.  There are
some exceptions -- eg. cacti installs into /usr/local/share/cacti
   
This means that you will have to make provision in your httpd.conf
(or whatever the equivalent is for the webserver you're using) so
that the filesystem space the application lives in is mapped into
the URL-space provided by your webserver.  In apache, that typically
means setting up an alias and then applying appropriate access
controls in a Location or Directory block.
   
Formerly many web applications installed into the apache specific
directory /usr/local/www/data but this behaviour is now discouraged.
It's not, AFAIK, absolutely forbidden, but you'ld have a hard time
getting a new port through committal if it behaved like that. I
don't think there has been a concerted effort to find all of the
older ports that install under /usr/local/www/data and modify them;
rather individual maintainers are expected to modify their ports as
the occasion arises.
   
   Cheers,

yes, and this is how i would prefer to see mailgraph operate as well.
 I was just pointing out the fact that mailgraph didnt work this way.
   
Just to be clear, I am not doing anything out of the ordinary or
using a non-recommended DocumentRoot.
   
The patch at
   
http://people.freebsd.org/~rafan/mailgraph.diff
   
appears to work properly, but shouldnt mailgraph be installed to
/usr/local/www/mailgraph as per the recommendations and an alias
added to apache for access to mailgraph?
  
   As I said in previous mail, I want minimal user interaction
   for such a simple script. I asked on ports@ before committing.
 
  So why don't ports use the convenient etc/apache*/Includes?
  Defaults:
  WWWNAME ?= ${PORTNAME}
  WWWDIR ?= ${LOCALBASE}/www/${PORTNAME}
 
  post-install:
  ${ECHO_CMD} Alias /${WWNAME}/ ${WWDIR}  \
  ${PREFIX}/etc/apache*/Includes/${WWWNAME}.conf
 
  User can override, minimal user interaction...

 Apache is not the only http server.

No really. /usr/local/www/data is hardly ever the document root in the real 
world as well. What's in ports now:
- some use /usr/local/www/portname, some use /usr/local/www/data/portname, 
some make efforts to look for the real document root (inconsistent)
- installing into the assumed document root fails when it's not the actual 
document root (user interaction required)
- user cannot override install location beyond $LOCALBASE/$PREFIX mechanisms

Any self-respecting webserver supports aliases in one way or another, the 
above was an example. A 'bsd.www.mk' activated by WWWPORT=yes in a ports 
Makefile, that installs targets for aliasing in a detected webserver, should 
resolve all of the above. Anyway, wishful thinking maybe. Sure would be nice 
to do ls -al /usr/local/www and instantly see what packages one can offer to 
a virtual host.

Yes.  Sendmail supports a mail filtering mechanism called milter,
and there are several popular milter tools out there.

One of the milters which can do what you seem to need is:

Having said that, Postfix bundles a lot of the functionality of many
milters.  If you are happy with the way Postfix works, why do you have
to switch to Sendmail?

I'm a great fan of Sendmail myself, but if Postfix does what you want to
do, if you are more familiar with Postfix, and it will be much easier
for you to maintain a Postfix installation, it may be a good idea to use
Postfix :-)

Re: Problem with logs

2007-09-13 Thread Aldisa Admin

Hello Derek,

I don't use hosts.allow.  I use the AllowUsers directive in the sshd.conf file to limit 
the actual username/ip combinations.  As a rule, I also close port 22 on the router.  
When I need external access (e.g. when I am travelling) I will open some other port and 
have sshd Listen on that port as well.  At that time, I will add an obscure 
username to AllowUsers with any ip address.  Of course, I use the custom port to login.

Prior to implementing this setup, I used to get frequent daily login attempts.  
Now I don't get any.

Thanks for your feedback.

Abid

Thanks for reminding me as that sounds like what I'm looking for.

 It's really weird, cause I can't get ntfs to mount under normal userid even

 reasons. I wonder if it's just ntfs, can you mount another partition as
 normal user? Like, unmount /usr and remount as normal user or if you have a
 less busy partition like /data or whatever.

Yes, this is only for ntfs. 
For ufs or msdosfs partitions (slices) it is not posible. 
Only ntfs I can mount and unmount as normal user.

What I should to do with ntfs_mount? Remove the setuid?

natd / ipfw services on internal interface

2007-09-13 Thread Joe
I figured out what the problem was.  I had compiled my dhcp server with 
USE_SOCKETS and am NOT running in a jail.

After a lot of searching the bug reports I came across an old bug that said 
that USE_SOCKETS was added for jailed dhcp servers, because they do not have 
access to bpf.  It also said that compiling USE_SOCKETS into a non jailed dhcp 
server will have unpredictable results.

I found out that the server will behave badly like it is being sent through nat 
out our the wrong port.   

gt; You should specify more information about your setup, but generally you 
gt; should be able to just insert a rule like quot;ipfw add xxx allow ip from 
gt; mynet/mask to mynet/maskquot;, where quot;xxxquot; is the rule-number 
BEFORE your 
gt; natd redirection rule-number and mynet/mask describes your internal 
network.

Bridging and port mirroring

2007-09-13 Thread Brian McCann
I've poked around on the web, but come up empty.  And I find it hard
to believe there's not a simple way to do this, if it hasn't been done
before.

I've got a server with two nics configured for bridging and running
bunches of ipfw rules.  I'd like to add a 3rd NIC and have it mirror
the 2nd NIC (so all traffic into and out of nic2 goes to nic3), so I
can run an IDS on another server.  Yes, I know that has the potential
to overload nic3 if there is a lot of traffic going in and out of
nic2, but that's not an issue for me.

Has anyone done this before, or know how to do this?

Thanks,

 FreeBSD uses the yarrow algorithm, as mentioned in random(4). See 
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yarrow_algorithm

Yarrow is reseeded with interrupt entropy, and is supposedly good
enough not to require the amount of entropy to be tracked.
So /dev/random need not block, and there's no need for a separate
non-blocking device.

You don't mention having installed e.g. racoon (in security/ipsec-tools) 
so you don't have any software to actually set up and negotiate a tunnel.


AFAIK, IPSEC and IPSEC_ESP are just options to enable those specific

Scripting question

I'm trying to do some text file manipulation, and it's driving me nuts.

I've got a sorted file of SMTP addresses, and want to eliminate the

Example:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] NO
[EMAIL PROTECTED] OK

The above lines *both* need to be eliminated from output - I don't
want the first or second of them, I want them both gone.

I've looked at sort and uniq, and I've googled a fair bit but can't

Is the first string always separated from the rest by white space

Because in your configuration appears another path:

And you are looking in: /usr/sbin/sendmail.

   Could someone on the list point me to a document that explains the

   different, here it's a symlink (talking about RELENG-6 onwards).
   
  FreeBSD uses the yarrow algorithm, as mentioned in random(4). See 
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yarrow_algorithm
  http://www.schneier.com/yarrow.html
 
 Yarrow is reseeded with interrupt entropy, and is supposedly good
 enough not to require the amount of entropy to be tracked.
 So /dev/random need not block, and there's no need for a separate
 non-blocking device.  

On the website it says that the original yarrow algorithm is no longer
supported. It seems to have been replaced by the fortuna algorithm.

I can't see from the source if /usr/src/sys/dev/random/yarrow.* use the
original yarrow algorithm, or the improved yarrow-160 aka fortuna. The use of
crypto/rijndael/rijndael-api-fst.h and crypto/sha2/sha2.h seem to
indicate the latter though.

/usr/sbin/sendmail should be a symbolic link to /usr/sbin/mailwrapper.

When you install Postfix, it asks if you want to activate postfix in

You could put the script in a crontab for that user:

@reboot /bin/sh /home/foo/scripts/MyScript.sh

According to 'man 5 crontab', @reboot runs the script once at startup.

Ya know, it's really easy to get wrapped around the axle on this stuff.

I think I may have a better solution. The file I'm trying to massage
has a predecessor - the non-unique lines are the result of a
concatenation of two files.

Silly me, it's better to 'grep -v' with the one file vs. the second
rather than trying to merge, sort and further massage the result. The
fix will be to use sed against the first file to remove the ' NO',
thus providing a clean argument for grepping the other file.

Looks like a good job for a user crontab:

Login as the foo user, type:

crontab -e

Insert the line:

@reboot   /home/foo/scripts/MyScript.sh

Save, exit, you are done. Look at man 5 crontab for more details and

Tried that, and it doesn't work the way I expect, or else I'm doing it
wrong, which is definitely possible.

My first difficulty is that I can't figure out how to specify the
space as the field delimiter, assuming that -t is the correct
parameter for that. I've tried specifying '@' for -t, but that doesn't
work either.

Next, my suspicion is that the -u parameter will simply output the
first line of a set of non-unique lines, which is what it does
normally - it doesn't seem to eliminate all non-unique lines, it just
makes the first line the unique one.

Am I making sense?

I don't think there are any per-cpu statistics available from the
kernel currently.  All you get is the aggregate total from things like
top and vmstat.  It'd be interesting to see Solaris-style mpstat output

You might get some traction from the ipfw tee command, although

 It sounds like you've found your solution, but how about the below shell
 script?  Probably woefully inefficient, but should work.

 - Craig

 ### begin script ##
 #!/bin/sh
 # Read in an input list of 2 column data pairs and output the pairs where
 the first columns are unique.

 INPUT_FILE=list.txt
 OUTPUT_FILE=new_list.txt
 NON_UNIQ_LIST=

 for NON_UNIQ in `cat $INPUT_FILE | awk '{print $1}' | sort | uniq -c |
 grep -vE '^ *1' | awk '{print $2}'`
 do
 NON_UNIQ_LIST=$NON_UNIQ_LIST|$NON_UNIQ
 done

 NON_UNIQ_LIST=`echo $NON_UNIQ_LIST | sed 's/^.//'`

 cat $INPUT_FILE | grep -vE $NON_UNIQ_LIST  $OUTPUT_FILE
 ### end script ##


I'll fiddle with this too, but I like the perl better.

Maybe I haven't understood what you are after.

If you want to get lines that exist in either file1 or file2 but not  
both (and if the files are already sorted) then


  comm -3 file1  file2

will do that.

How can I get the process structure?

Does 6.2 still have that time- and ACPI issue in ESX3?
I've got it running in ESX2.5, but it indeed needed some (or much)
fiddling :-)

- disable ACPI in the VM
- kernel frequency at 100 hz
- the vmxnet-driver (even the one from workstation 6) crashes freebsd, but
IIRC this driver can be replaced with e1000 in esx3.

You can use uniq if the file is already sorted (if not, put a sort at the

FreeBSD 4TB Raid Setup

2007-09-13 Thread Harry Maugans
Hi,

I have a problem I've been pulling my hair out over the past few days.

I'm building a server that's going to house a very large database.  For it,
I've build a RAID 5 with 4TB of space (3.5TB usable).  It's running on an
HighPoint RocketRAID 1820A 8-channel SATA Controller.

Since this is for a database, it's most likely going to be a few very large
files, so splitting up the partition to multiple mounts isn't an option for
me.

When FreeBSD boots up, dmesg shows the card detected correctly, and all
channels started successfully.  However when it actually loads it into the
device, it shows:
da0: 1241428MB (2542444544 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 158259C)
That equates to about 1.1TB, rather than the 3.5TB the controller bios shows
as usable space.

The motherboard on this server is an Asus P5M2 serverboard, which can easily
handle 4TB, if that's even a concern at all.

Regardless of this note on boot, I've still gone ahead and configured GPT to
see, and when mounted, df -h reports 1.1TB as well.

I've heard of FreeBSD servers handling multiple-terabytes without issue, and
1.1 seems to be an odd number to truncate on.

I'm very devoted to FreeBSD and would very much like to figure out how to
make this work, however as time is important, if I can't resolve this I'll
be forced to look into alternative OS choices.

As of now, I can't find much information online pertaining to my specific
issue, and I'm out of ideas myself.

Thank you for your time (and replies).  :)

Yes, I have successfully installed FreeBSD i386 and amd64 on ESX 3.x.
The only problem I know of is that SMP only works with FreeBSD/amd64.

 to install on ESX it will not find the ESX SCSI controller and not allow
 an install.

When creating a new virtual machine I always choose Other or
Other(64-bit) as guest OS. The virtual SCSI Controller is LSI Logic,
FreeBSD is version 6.x. Once the virtual system is running, I install
the VMware Tools from VMware Server 1.x.

Hi,

Could someone on the list point me to a document that explains the 
functionality of /dev/random in FreeBSD in a little more depth than

the man page? In other OS's I've looked at random and urandom are
different, here it's a symlink (talking about RELENG-6 onwards).
 
FreeBSD uses the yarrow algorithm, as mentioned in random(4). See 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yarrow_algorithm

http://www.schneier.com/yarrow.html

Yarrow is reseeded with interrupt entropy, and is supposedly good
enough not to require the amount of entropy to be tracked.
So /dev/random need not block, and there's no need for a separate
non-blocking device.  


On the website it says that the original yarrow algorithm is no longer
supported. It seems to have been replaced by the fortuna algorithm.

I can't see from the source if /usr/src/sys/dev/random/yarrow.* use the
original yarrow algorithm, or the improved yarrow-160 aka fortuna. The use of
crypto/rijndael/rijndael-api-fst.h and crypto/sha2/sha2.h seem to
indicate the latter though.


Should I conclude then that randomness is sufficient and performance is 
a non-issue?

 Hello guys

Hi.

 But the problem is how to switch next boot when I am at windows via remote

Attached is the source to a program that I wrote about 4 and a half
years ago.  It performs the function of a dumbed-down boot0cfg for
Windows, only understanding the -s option, or giving you an
interactive menu to choose from.  It also is hardcoded to use
PhysicalDrive0, but that's usually what you would boot from.

I compile it using the devel/mingw32-gcc port.  You can probably also
use the version of mingw that's available through cygwin to compile it
on the Windows side.

Or you can be lazy and download the binary that I just posted to
http://www.severious.net/nextboot.exe
You should really compile it yourself though, rather than trusting
random executables from strangers :-)  I'll probably delete the binary
after a week or so, but the source should live on in the list archives.

The usual disclaimers:  This program changes your MBR, I'm not
responsible if it eats your partition table, your lunch, or your dog's
lunch.  Requires administrator rights to run.  TTL not included.

The randomness is considered to be strong, but you can perform the  
NIST FIPS-140 tests against /dev/random and decide for yourself.  As  
for performance, I get about 12MB/s out of /dev/random on a ~1 GHz  
CPU, which seems to be quite decent...

 Hi,
 
 Could someone on the list point me to a document that explains the 
 functionality of /dev/random in FreeBSD in a little more depth than

 different, here it's a symlink (talking about RELENG-6 onwards).
  FreeBSD uses the yarrow algorithm, as mentioned in random(4). See 
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yarrow_algorithm
 http://www.schneier.com/yarrow.html
 Yarrow is reseeded with interrupt entropy, and is supposedly good
 enough not to require the amount of entropy to be tracked.
 So /dev/random need not block, and there's no need for a separate
 non-blocking device.  
 On the website it says that the original yarrow algorithm is no longer

Performance isn't an issue, AFAICT. Whether randomness is sufficient
depends on what you're using it for. I'd say yes, unless you want to
generate one-time pads. There are some test programs that you can
download to test for randomness. E.g. http://www.fourmilab.ch/random/

 I've got a server with two nics configured for bridging and running
 bunches of ipfw rules.  I'd like to add a 3rd NIC and have it mirror
 the 2nd NIC (so all traffic into and out of nic2 goes to nic3), so I
 can run an IDS on another server.  Yes, I know that has the potential
 to overload nic3 if there is a lot of traffic going in and out of
 nic2, but that's not an issue for me.
 
 Has anyone done this before, or know how to do this?

Are you using if_bridge?  If so, it supports creating span interfaces.
It's easy to set up, and it almost does what you describe (instead of
only showing traffic into/out of nic2, it's going to show all traffic
on bridge0.)

Charlie,

You are obviously trying to install Ruby gem that is not ported.

So you can try to imitate a port: install devel/ruby-gems port and do
something like this (in (t)csh):

  # setenv CONFIGURE_ARGS --with-opt-dir=/usr/local
  # /usr/bin/env /usr/local/bin/gem install --no-ri \
 --install-dir /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8 libxml-ruby-0.5.1.0.gem

This will install the gem (try 'gem list'), but you can easily
experience some problems: please note that gem ports (rubygem-*) use
bsd.ruby.mk and devel/ruby-gems/Makefile.common files which contain a
lot of sophistication needed for proper FreeBSD integration.

This is just a very general advice... For details and the right answer,
you could probably ask FreeBSD Ruby person, Akinori Musha
([EMAIL PROTECTED]) -- that's what I'd do. :)

/etc/crontab allows you to actually specify the user to run the

@reboot foo /home/foo/scripts/MyScript.sh

Would work for running the process at startup.  The following entry  
is an example for running a script as user for every Monday on 3pm:


00 03* * 1 foo /home/foo/scripts/MyScript.sh

And, as others have already said, you can just put the following

All of the examples on the manpage use /dev/acd0.

I know where is your problem the burning device is always cd0

you must give the device node /dev/cd0


/dev/cd0 is provided by the atapicam kernel module, and used with 
Linux-type utilities that need it.


However, burncd is FreeBSD native, and works fine with /dev/acd0.

I have linux-flashplugin9 installed with firefox 2.0.0.6 on FreeBSD
7.0-Current when I view a page that has a single flash file on it there is
no problem but if there are multiple flash movies I get grayed out windows.
See screen shot at http://www.flosoft-systems.com/flash.jpg

 I don't have the perl skills, though that would be ideal.
 Any help out there?

Buy Learning Perl, Fourth Edition, read it, and do the exercises:

Investing the effort to become proficient with Perl will serve you well in the

nVidia driver with Xorg 7.3?

2007-09-13 Thread Scott I. Remick
Anyone tried the current nVidia-driver with the new X.org 7.3? I heard 
that there was a general (non-FreeBSD-specific) incompatibility, but just 
saw that 7.3 was now in the ports system.

It is not clear to me: are you trying to make the port?  Or are
you trying to run hplip after it is successfully installed?

If you are trying to make the port, you must do so as root.

Good FreeBSD Supported Gigabit Ethernet Card?

2007-09-13 Thread Oliver Hansen
I'm looking to eventually upgrade my home network to all gigabit so I'm 
going to start by purchasing a few NICs for some old servers I just 
received. I know there are quite a few supported by FreeBSD6 which I found 
( http://www.freebsd.org/releases/6.0R/hardware-i386.html#ETHERNET ) but 
I'm wondering if there is any real benefit in buying a $40 or $50 NIC 
like the Netgear GA311 or just get a $20 NIC like the D-Link DFE-530TX+. 
The use will probably be a firewall, proxy, file server, and DVR.
