9.1 on FTP
Hi freebsd-questions. While looking for a 9.1-rc3 ISO to test on my old PPC Mac, I saw a 9.1-RELEASE(!) ISO under releases/powerpc. I didn't think 9.1 was out or announced yet, even though it was supposed to be announced some days ago. I can't find it under any other directories for amd64,i386,etc. It's also not on freebsd-update. Why was there an ISO for PPC? As I check now, it's either been removed or I can't find it. Something fishy is going on? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

FreeBSD 802.11 Testbed
Dear All, I would like to implement a physical 802.11 wireless testbed that all systems run Freebsd 9. Including a server enabling me to define traffic for the network as a file.

Thanks for all your replies. Our current direction appears to be one of modifying the FreeBSD bootonly ISO to perform installs and load it from gPXE as follows... The menu will appear something like (from memory, syntax may be wrong): kernel memdisk imgargs memdisk raw iso initrd http path to the ISO Once we have it tested and implemented, I'll likely blog the subject at http://blog.hostileadmin.com/ -- Take care Rick Miller ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

I'm sorry to say it won't. Nothing will prevent a user from removing sudoscript's FIFO once he gets root privileges. Basically, what Tim wants to do sounds very akin to the PCI DSS requirements that every user's action be logged. The bad news is _this is not achievable on MS/nux/bsd_ systems. The kind of logging and security required can only be attained on mainframes (read: i/Series , z/Series) using RACF and other absolutely awesome features. The only thing Tim can do is try to approach the level of security that's required. Devin's suggestion of a kernel module is what comes closest to achieving the goal, provided that: - the functionnality is compiled in-kernel to prevent kldunload'ing the module - the system runs at a secure level high enough to prevent kldunloads , if it can't be compiled in-kernel - the functions used by the module cannot be overriden by another module (for example redeclare this module's sendlog() function with another dummy module, making sendlog() basically do a NOOP) Another contestant that comes a close second is the use of the AUDIT framework, however one would need to ensure: - audit trails cannot be tampered (chflags sappend) - the audit daemon cannot be killed ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
