I'm not sure which would be best. Can you suggest one based on the previous answer? Thanks. If you're going to do this with IPSec it should be fairly simple to set up the connection. Given that you control both ends of the IPSec tunnel, you can just use a shared secret. You need to set up some security policy definitions using setkey(1) -- the man page is full of acronyms and jargon but what setkey does is define what traffic should be encrypted based on the end point IPs, port numbers and some other data. [Note: in order for setkey to work, you need a kernel config with OPTIONS IPSEC added]. Finally, the third part of setting up an IPSec connection is to configure a method of key exchange -- this is the only part not actually built into the system, so you should install ipsec-tools or equivalent from ports. On the question of tunnel vs transport mode -- most of the tutorials you can find on the net are all about setting up /tunnel/ mode -- ie. to use a pair of routers as IPSec endpoints to connect two private networks. In your case, I think you do need tunnel mode, despite it requiring a degenerate form of network with only one host at each end -- something that naturally screams transport mode -- since you need the capability to route traffic from elsewhere via the VPN link. Two handy references: Setting up a simple transport mode tunnel between two hosts: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-doc/2007-June/012632.html Step by step guide to setting up a tunnel. http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2002/12/26/FreeBSD_Basics.html It's a bit dated now, as the kernel configuration instructions apply to pre-6.x systems.

Core file output directory, writeable directories and procfs
What are the rules dictating where core files are output? Is there a way to setup an output directory? I know that a bash shell allow you to set a limit on the size, but that seems to be all. If they are output to an applications working directory, I might need to write an exec wrapper script such that all applications are running from designated directory. The reason I ask is that I'm in the process of recreating my system and determining which directories on the system need to be set as writeable. So far, I'm setting allowing write access to: /home /tmp /var Also, I understand that the procfs provides additional information about the system's running processes. What are the benefits and disadvantages to using this file system? It appears that the FreeBSD 7.0 Release does not enable procfs by default. Why would someone want to enable this feature? stonee ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Slightly OT - steaming data server software?
Slightly OT but since I'm going to run this on FreeBSD 7 I figured I'd ask here .. I have an application where data arrives in what is effectively continuous stream (actually NMEA messages from an AIS receiver) and I'd like to have a server where an arbitrary number of clients can connect to a tcp port and receive a copy of the stream.I could probably write this in perl without too much work but somebody has to have done something similar already - does anybody know of code that does this? (and yes I know sending the messages as individual udp packets would be easier - I'm already doing that internally but it doesn't work for opening up the data stream to the public). John.

Keep a monitoring program like mbmon running in an xterm, to see if 1) the CPU or case temperature aren't too high, or 2) the voltages are low. If (1) happens it could be caused by a broken or stuck fan or a plain dirty heat exchanger, while (2) is probably indicating a power supply which is short-circuiting or about to break down.

It is mostly used to create the graphics aperture a.k.a GART. The device is even named /dev/agpgart. I am guessing that on graphics cards with dedicated memory it is used to map that into the address space.

It turned out that the PCI identifier for the G33 was commented out in /usr/src/sys/pci/agp_i810.c due to lack of testing. I've re-activated it, and /dev/agpgart is now created normally.

[/SNIP] Yeah, that was my first idea to, but it does not work with SCP/ SSH. if you create the files locally on the filer it works like a charme. but if you copy files to the server (tested from a linux system) which have permissions, that are less than 660/ 770 these permisisons are applied. does anyone know another handy solution for this, beside scripts that are triggerd by cron or file monitors??? regards, olli ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Come on! There must be a better way... Put the following in you kernel config: makeoptions MODULES_OVERRIDE="" This will prevent the building of all modules. So you will only get the devices built into the kernel. If you do wnat something to be built as a module, put it between the quotation marks, e.g. MODULES_OVERRIDE="wlan ral".

Re: Stop building all those kernel modules
I'm trying to use nanobsd to build a small kernel for an embedded system on FreeBSD 7. In previous versions, I could modify GENERIC by just commenting out all the devices and options that I wasn't interested in, and buildkernel KERNCONF=myconf would happily ignore all the things I wasn't interested in. This no longer works. Now everything gets built, even things that are broken/incompatible with other options I've chosen. I've tried setting NO_MODULES=YES, but the modules were still built. I see documentation for WITHOUT_MODULES, but it wants me to list every module I don't want to build? Come on!
