FreeBSD as Samba Server and Windows as Client

2013-04-17 Thread Beeblebrox
There are just so many things that could go wrong on a samba setup that it is
beyond funny in my opinion. You have authentication method (kerberos, pam,
txt), ports, winbind and dns just to list a few.

I suggest you start samba in debug mode and enable full logging. The
documentation from samba its self is probably going to be much more
comprehensive: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/manpages-3/smbd.8.html

I would also try to connect with various clients like a linux, XP, vista or
win7. These connection attempts should generate comprehensive logs when
samba is running in debug mode. You can then start to get some idea why the
connection is being refused by reading through the generated logs.

Also, several how-to's already exist on the FreeBSD forums - as an example:

Re: Keeping FreeBSD with custom kernel up to date: freebsd-update no option?

2013-04-17 Thread Alexandre
Hi Andreas and Polytropon,

In the case your are tracking -RELEASE branch, you can use freebsd-update
tool to apply binary security patches on your system and upgrade versions
(e.g. 9.0 to 9.1 or 9.x to 10.0 when available).
Freebsd-update tool apply binary updates to your system and GENERIC kernel.
Furthermore, this tool syncs sources (by default). So if you are using
custom kernel, you just have to rebuild and install your custom kernel.
It is recommended to not use SVN to update your system sources if you are
using freebsd-update tool to avoid troubles.

Regards,
Alexandre

  Dear FreeBSD savvies
 
  I am (still) struggling to understand how to keep my FreeBSD system up
  to date (world/system, not ports). I want to track RELEASE (not a
  development branch) and I want to receive security related updates. And
  I want to run a custom kernel.

 Without actually havint tested it, it seems that if you want
 to use freebsd-update (binary updating), you should note this:

 In /etc/freebsd-update.conf, you should have the line for what
 to update as Components src world.

 This should prevent overwriting of the kernel, but you need to
 compile your kernel and install it. The component src will
 make sure you have the proper kernel sources. I assume a custom
 kernel configuration file in /usr/src/sys/{i386|amd64}/conf/
 is _not_ being overwritten by freebsd-update.

 Use the -r option of freebsd-update to specify the correct
 release if required. It should follow -RELEASE-pN for the
 currentl patchlevel N (which you intend to follow) normally.



  From what I understand I cannot use freebsd-update in this case
  because it will invariably either overwrite my custom kernel (if I have
  Components kernel in the config file) or not update the kernel sources
  in /usr/src/sys (when I do not have Components kernel in the config
  file). See [1].

 As far as I read from man freebsd-update.conf, the src component
 will not exclude kernel sources; kernel refers to the kernel and
 the modules as binary stuff.

 This is the relevant text passage:

 The components are ``src''
 (source code), ``world'' (non-kernel binaries),
 and ``kernel''; the sub-components are the indi-
 vidual distribution sets generated as part of
 the release process (e.g., ``src/base'',
 ``src/sys'', ``world/base'', ``world/catpages'',
 ``kernel/smp'').  Note that prior to
 FreeBSD 6.1, the ``kernel'' component was dis-
 tributed as part of ``world/base''.

 So src will include src/sys which is the kernel sources you
 will need to build your custom kernel.



  This leaves me with the only possibility to use SVN to update /usr/src,
  right?

 No, but it might be the more advanced alternative, and it should
 work. Note that in _this_ case, you will also have to rebuild the
 world, so kernel and world are in sync after an update. Refer to
 the comment header of /usr/src/Makefile for the whole process that
 has to be performed after updating (or see in the Handbook: the
 section about updating by source).



  I have a copy of the SVN sources (for the outdated RELEASE-9.0.0
  but that's a different story), see below for svn info). As I
  understand [2] I cannot mix freebsd-update and SVN, right?

 It could cause trouble. Deciding for _one_ way should be better.



  So I can run svn update in /usr/src whenever I like. But what then? Do
  I need to rebuild the world and my custom kernel every time I run svn
  update (and there are some updates)?

 Yes, or better: As soon as it is required. This depends on _what_
 has been part of the update. For example, kernel updates _can_
 require updates of userland programs or libraries, but it's also
 possible that it's not the case. To be sure, rebuild.



  I'm on a low powered consumer
  device and it takes considerable amount of time to build the world and
  kernel (plus I still don't feel comfortable doing such tasks remotely).

 In this case, use freebsd-update as explained at the beginning of
 my message: Update components world and src, leave out kernel,
 the rebuild the kernel by source and install it. Then reboot.



  Is this really the way to do it or am I missing something?

 There are _several_ ways to do it. :-)



  There are quite some posts, websites and threads out there (see [3] or
  [4] for example) about this topic but (surprisingly?) I could not (yet)
  find a conclusive answer.

 This is because the answer depends on what you actually want to do
 (follow RELEASE, STABLE, CURRENT), and how you want to do it (binary,
 by source).

How to manually start firewall after system completed boot.

2013-04-17 Thread Joe
I have special purpose situation where I need to wait until the boot 
process has completed the starting of the system and then start the 
firewall (ipfw or pf). Commenting out the firewall statements from the 
hosts /etc/rc.conf does stop the firewall from starting at boot time.


Is there some format of the service command that could be used to 
manually start the selected firewall?


Any ideas on how to accomplish this is welcome.

The boot process, as used here, is simply a series of calls
to various scripts in /etc/rc.d ... any of which can (theoretically)
be invoked by itself.  The details of this may be important;
_please_ do more research before blowing yourself up.  :-)

You can use onestart/onestop if the service is not enabled in rc.conf.

service pf onestart

I use /usr/local, but this seems to be a typo in the last checkin, 
which changed the internal names of the port options to our brave new
naming scheme. 

If you look in the Makefile clause for installing to base, renaming the
option itself went correctly, but both halves of the '.if' now invoke
USE_RC_SUBR. That's correct for PREFIX, but for installing into base
should be USE_RCORDER instead.

Re: pwd.db/spwd.db file corupption when having unsafe system poweroff

2013-04-17 Thread Polytropon
Allow me a few additions:

On Tue, 16 Apr 2013 16:45:59 -0400, Michael Powell wrote:
 Pressing the power button for 4 seconds as described is invoking the ACPI 
 layer to stimulate call(s) down to the system BIOS.

No. In most (but of course not all) default settings the
long press will forcedly (and with _no_ message to the OS)
turn off the system's power.

The short press will emit the ACPI signal to the OS to
deal with the power-off sequence itself.

Still it's possible to have a different programming for the
button. For example, it seems to be common to have this
button perform a ACPI sleep, ACPI hibernate or ACPI
powersafe mode on short press, and (as you mentioned)
the ACPI power down on long press.

But as I said: _What_ the button actually does is defined
in the CMOS setup.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Configuration_and_Power_Interface#Power_states

have a look at this page to find out more about the various
possible signals (power states).



 Whatever is set in the 
 BIOS wrt to power control and various power-savings modes are passed through 
 the ACPI layer. The problem with this is the acpi module in FreeBSD may, or 
 may not, be a perfect implementation for every possible piece of hardware in 
 existance.

This statement especially applies in regards to laptops, where
closing the lid can also trigger a specific signal, and opening
the device again sends another signal. Vendors don't agree on
how to properly do this, so there are many different ACPI
implementations.

% ls /boot/kernel/acpi*
/boot/kernel/acpi.ko*   /boot/kernel/acpi_ibm.ko*
/boot/kernel/acpi_aiboost.ko*   /boot/kernel/acpi_panasonic.ko*
/boot/kernel/acpi_asus.ko*  /boot/kernel/acpi_sony.ko*
/boot/kernel/acpi_dock.ko*  /boot/kernel/acpi_toshiba.ko*
/boot/kernel/acpi_fujitsu.ko*   /boot/kernel/acpi_video.ko*
/boot/kernel/acpi_hp.ko*/boot/kernel/acpi_wmi.ko*

You can see from this example that FreeBSD only supports a
subset of what can be considered possible. Of course there
are many fields of compatibility, but it may still result
in specific hardware not working properly -- mostly in the
area of laptops and their accessories (like docking stations).



 The piece of that which really concerns me are individual 
 manufactuer BIOS quirks can be just enough 'off' so as to misbehave even when 
 the FreeBSD acpi implentation is basically sound.

Even though I did not experience that myself, it can be
considered possible. A sloppy ACPI implementation can
be the source of many kinds of trouble, even involving
such simple devices like a power button.



 The jist of this is (IMHO 
 here - YMMV) is I consider it a bad procedure to turn off a server as you've 
 described.

Definitely. :-)



 Use the shutdown command properly instead. I would never do what 
 your coworker did to any of my servers.

A mechanicl protection could prevent that.



 Caveat being sometimes you have no 
 other choice but to do a hard power-down. A hard power-down is done by using 
 the switch on the power supply, and not using the ACPI/BIOS from pressing 
 the power switch on the front.

This is also possible. Both this _and_ the default forced power off
(the long press in many defaults) equal the action of pulling the
power cord.



 When you do have an 'uh-oh' like this, FreeBSD normally boots back into an 
 unclean file system with corresponding whinings and complaints about how the 
 file system(s) were not properly dismounted.

This is an intended behaviour. TO prevent further damage and to
make data recovery possible (worst case), the system does not
try to boot by all means, just to make the (clueless) user
happy. :-)



 Normally a background fsck 
 ensues after 60 seconds of idle.

This _can_ be dangerous, because at this time, the system has
already been booted into a somehow working state. You should
ask yourself the question: Can I invest the time to have _no_
background fsck (i. e., a foreground fsck which maybe will ask
prior to doing anything heavy) to make sure my data is consistent,
because it is important data which _needs_ to be okay? In this
case, put background_fsck=NO in /etc/rc.conf -- and wait.

When using UFS, there _may_ be file system damages so severe
that fsck will _not_ correct them manually (which often leads
to data loss of important data that could have been saved if
the proper _user decision_ would have been taken place). This
will only happen in the interactive mode at system startup.



 In your case whatever files were left open 
 and not properly closed this background fsck, had it been allowed to run and 
 complete, would have cleaned this up.

Maybe, maybe not. It highly depends on what actually happened,
and it's nearly impossible to find that out, especially when
there is no control about what the background fsck does (while
the system is already happily running and humming).



 The problem starts when someone 
 presses the power off button again, and again, before this process

Bad kernel with make -j?

2013-04-17 Thread Brett Glass

Everyone:

I've just had to resurrect a machine which apparently failed 
because the kernel was built with the make -j option.


As reported in the make(1) man page, the purpose of the -j option 
is to let the make program build multiple portions of a program 
concurrently on a machine with multiple CPUs. The idea is to make 
use of SMP to speed up the build process. Unfortunately, after 
updating a FreeBSD 9.0 system with freebsd-update (and seeing some 
changes that would affect the custom kernel the machine was 
running), I rebuilt the kernel using the -j5 option. (The machine 
has 2 cores and 4 threads, but threads block due to I/O as well as 
memory access. So, when it works properly, -j5 is the fastest option.)


The result was a kernel in which some compiled-in modules -- in 
particular, netgraph nodes -- weren't accessible. mpd5 began 
spewing odd messages, and VPN connections would not come up. I'd 
built the kernel with the NO_MODULES option, so the modules that 
were missing couldn't be loaded dynamically.


Rebuilding the kernel using a single-threaded make solved the problem.

Have others seen the same symptoms? I'd like to be able to do fast, 
multithreaded kernel builds, but will obviously have to avoid it if 
the resulting kernels are corrupted.

 I want to run a custom kernel.
 
 Without actually havint tested it, it seems that if you want
 to use freebsd-update (binary updating), you should note this:
 
 In /etc/freebsd-update.conf, you should have the line for what
 to update as Components src world.

That's what I thought (and currently have).

 This should prevent overwriting of the kernel, but you need to
 compile your kernel and install it. The component src will
 make sure you have the proper kernel sources. I assume a custom
 kernel configuration file in /usr/src/sys/{i386|amd64}/conf/
 is _not_ being overwritten by freebsd-update.

A custom kernel configuration file is *not* overwritten by
freebsd-update, I can confirm this. Of course I will have to compile and
install my custom kernel manually.

For some reason I was under the impression that /usr/src/sys is not
being updated by freebsd-update if I remove kernel from the
Components directive in freebsd-update.conf. But I might be wrong (I
will check).

Maybe related to this: how does freebsd-update know what
sources/binaries to get when I don't use the -r switch? Does it rely
on /usr/src/sys/conf/newvers.sh?

Could it be that I never saw a change to my kernel sources
(/usr/src/sys) because freebsd-update was tracking some static sources?

[snip]

 I'm on a low powered consumer
 device and it takes considerable amount of time to build the world and
 kernel (plus I still don't feel comfortable doing such tasks remotely).
 
 In this case, use freebsd-update as explained at the beginning of
 my message: Update components world and src, leave out kernel,
 the rebuild the kernel by source and install it. Then reboot.

That's what I am planning to do. Let's see.

As I currently have a checkout from SVN in /urs/src I need to get rid of
this. Can I just copy (read: move) back my previous /usr/src directory
and continue to use freebsd-update? I think this should work, right? I
am just not sure if freebsd-update still knows what sources/binaries
to track (see my previous comment about how freebsd-update knows what
source to use).

Re: Bad kernel with make -j?

2013-04-17 Thread andreas scherrer
on 17.4.13 21:18  Brett Glass said the following:
 I've just had to resurrect a machine which apparently failed because the
 kernel was built with the make -j option.

[snip]

 The result was a kernel in which some compiled-in modules -- in
 particular, netgraph nodes -- weren't accessible. mpd5 began spewing odd
 messages, and VPN connections would not come up. I'd built the kernel
 with the NO_MODULES option, so the modules that were missing couldn't be
 loaded dynamically.
 
 Rebuilding the kernel using a single-threaded make solved the problem.

I am not very experienced but I stumbled over the following note in
/usr/src/UPDATING before:

Avoid using make -j when upgrading.  While generally safe, there are
sometimes problems using -j to upgrade.  If your upgrade fails with
-j, please try again without -j.  From time to time in the past
there have been problems using -j with buildworld and/or
installworld.  This is especially true when upgrading between
distant versions (eg one that cross a major release boundary or
several minor releases, or when several months have passed on the
-current branch).

Maybe that's a hint?

 Specifically, I want to run the following command and see exactly what

Is the -n option what you are looking for?

From man portmaster:

-n  run through all steps, but do not make or install any ports

This common flag seems to be allowed for installation via -o,
according to the synopsis:

portmaster [Common Flags] -o new port dir in /usr/ports

Re: Keeping FreeBSD with custom kernel up to date: freebsd-update no option?

According to the documentation, /usr/src (and therefor the
/usr/src/sys subtree) is part of the src component, not
of kernel, so it should be updated properly.

Not neccessarily. For example, if only a userland program has
received a security update, and the kernel was kept the same,
no change would be done in /usr/src/sys. In this case, the
kernel version output (as seen by the uname program) would
not have changed.



 As I currently have a checkout from SVN in /urs/src I need to get rid of
 this. Can I just copy (read: move) back my previous /usr/src directory
 and continue to use freebsd-update?

You should not switch between both methods, it may cause problems.
The simplest way would be to

# mv /usr/src /usr/src.svn

and let freebsd-update populate the sources with the required
version. Note that it will install the world your (custom) kernel
will finally have to match, and so it should make sure you have
the correct revision of the sources to avoid a version conflict.

However, it's basically not a problem to use SVN to track -RELEASE,
but in this case, you should recompile world and kernel from that
sources, instead of relying on freebsd-update for a binary update
of the world only. But as you said you're only interested in a
custom kernel (which _requires_ building from source), you can
safely leave everything else to freebsd-update and don't use SVN.
(It would be a totally different thing if you would track -STABLE
or -CURRENT which is not possible with freebsd-update, and which
would _force_ you to build everything from source.)

By following -RELEASE, freebsd-update will apply _that_ snapshot
of the source tree and the prebuild world and kernel at the
revision when X.Y-RELEASE-pZ has been verified, sloppily said.
So it basically doesn't matter what sources you have on your
machine (or even if you have any sources) as long as you're not
going to compile anything. But because this is a requirement in
your specific setting, freebsd-update will take care of that by
having the src component on its list.

gmirror is the wrong tool, gmultipath is what you want. The basic task is to 
use gmultipath label FOO da# to write a cookie on the disk (used to identify 
new/existing paths during GOEM taste events for example).

After you've labeled the da# devices with gmultipath you say gmultipath 
status to see the components of each label and you use multipath/LABEL as 
your disk name when creating the zpool (these correspond directly to 
/dev/multipath/LABEL, but zpool create … or zpool add … allow you to omit 
the leading /dev).

 we would like to create a zpool from all the devices, that in theory if
 nodeA failed
 then nodeB could force import the pool,

gmultipath (which you mention in the subject) is the appropriate tool for this, 
but there's no need for an import of the pool if you build the pool out of 
multipath devices. In our experience, we can pull a cable and zfs continues 
working just fine.

In other words, don't build the pool out of the devices, put a gmultipath label 
on each device and then use /dev/multipath/LABEL for the zpool devices.


 nodeA and NodeB are attached through
 dual LSI controllers, to the SATA/SAS backplane. but i cant seem to create
 a zpool from sesX or passX devices, i can however create a 16 drive zp0ol
 on either node, from any daX device. what did i miss? ive looked at
 gmirror, and also ses documents. Any insight is appreciated, thanks in
 advance.

gmirror is the wrong tool, gmultipath is what you want. The basic task is to 
use gmultipath label FOO da# to write a cookie on the disk (used to identify 
new/existing paths during GOEM taste events for example).

After you've labeled the da# devices with gmultipath you say gmultipath 
status to see the components of each label and you use multipath/LABEL as 
your disk name when creating the zpool (these correspond directly to 
/dev/multipath/LABEL, but zpool create … or zpool add … allow you to omit 
the leading /dev).

sanity check me on node A i did

zpool destroy master

Strange console behavior - hangs every few minutes until a key is pressed

2013-04-17 Thread David Noel
I'm experiencing something odd from a few new servers I've been
setting up today. I'll do something at the console that takes some
amount of time and produces lots of output such as fetching the ports
tree, svn updating /usr/src/, or building world, and the console will
hang. The console ceases to produce any additional output until a key
is pressed. It doesn't seem to be the case that program execution is
affected, the source tree continues to checkout, for example, but the
console is 'frozen' and produces no additional output. Has anyone run
into this before? Any thoughts as to what's going wrong or how to fix
this? I'm running 8.2 and am in the process of updating to 8.3
(buildworld is running at the moment on several of them at the moment,
with these hiccups every few minutes.. it's very odd).

 Is there some format of the service command that could be used to

How about the rc.d framework?

# /etc/rc.d/ipfw start

Or

# service ipfw start

Both will honor the firewall_type= setting in /etc/rc.conf
(here: for IPFW).

  we would like to create a zpool from all the devices, that in theory if
  nodeA failed
  then nodeB could force import the pool,

  gmultipath (which you mention in the subject) is the appropriate tool
 for this, but there's no need for an import of the pool if you build the
 pool out of multipath devices. In our experience, we can pull a cable and
 zfs continues working just fine.

 In other words, don't build the pool out of the devices, put a
 gmultipath label on each device and then use /dev/multipath/LABEL for the
 zpool devices.


  nodeA and NodeB are attached through
  dual LSI controllers, to the SATA/SAS backplane. but i cant seem to
 create
  a zpool from sesX or passX devices, i can however create a 16 drive
 zp0ol
  on either node, from any daX device. what did i miss? ive looked at
  gmirror, and also ses documents. Any insight is appreciated, thanks in
  advance.

  gmirror is the wrong tool, gmultipath is what you want. The basic task
 is to use gmultipath label FOO da# to write a cookie on the disk (used to
 identify new/existing paths during GOEM taste events for example).

 After you've labeled the da# devices with gmultipath you say gmultipath
 status to see the components of each label and you use multipath/LABEL
 as your disk name when creating the zpool (these correspond directly to
 /dev/multipath/LABEL, but zpool create … or zpool add … allow you to
 omit the leading /dev).


  sanity check me on node A i did

  zpool destroy master

  gmultipath label FOO da0

  gmultipath status

SV: Strange console behavior - hangs every few minutes until a key is pressed

2013-04-17 Thread Leslie Jensen
I'm seeing the same type of behaviour on my computer. It's a 9.1-RELEASE with 
xfce as desktop environment. I usually ssh to a remote server and do port 
upgrades. I leave the terminal on it's own desktop and upon returning it's 
frozen. I can't get it to react on keyboard input. I close the terminal window 
and reconnect to solve this.

Rubrik: Strange console behavior - hangs every few minutes until a key is 
pressed 
 
I'm experiencing something odd from a few new servers I've been
setting up today. I'll do something at the console that takes some
amount of time and produces lots of output such as fetching the ports
tree, svn updating /usr/src/, or building world, and the console will
hang. The console ceases to produce any additional output until a key
is pressed. It doesn't seem to be the case that program execution is
affected, the source tree continues to checkout, for example, but the
console is 'frozen' and produces no additional output. Has anyone run
into this before? Any thoughts as to what's going wrong or how to fix
this? I'm running 8.2 and am in the process of updating to 8.3
(buildworld is running at the moment on several of them at the moment,
with these hiccups every few minutes.. it's very odd).
