A modern BSD UNIX workgroup - how would you do it?
I have an upcoming project to create a modern UNIX (mainly FreeBSD-based) workgroup computing environment. If _YOU_ had your chance to do it from scratch, what technologies would you use? Basically only following are set in stone. Everything else is up to me: 1. Centralised user/password/account management 2. 2-3 file servers running FreeBSD, 1 mail server and 1 VPN gateway also running FreeBSD 3. Workstations will be 75% FreeBSD and 25% Mac OS X 10.2 Most people I have spoken to automatically say NIS/NFS. Although I know that NIS/NFS is a tried and true combination, I can't help but feel there must be a better way to do a modern BSD UNIX environment. As silly as it may sound I am seriously thinking about running Samba for file sharing services even though this is a fully UNIX environment. Reasons for this include excellent performance on FreeBSD and better security than NFS. Some of the other authentication/account management technologies I'm evaluating include LDAP and Kerberos. Any and comments/suggestions would be very well received... Basically what I'm asking is if you could do it all over from scratch how would you do a modern BSD UNIX workgroup? - Would you like to receive faxes to your personal email address?

Getting FreeBSDJumpstart installation to work
Hi all, I have tried this on several different machines and several different networks but keeping getting hit with the same error. I configure a PXE (jumpstart installation) server (NFS, TFTP, DHCP) as per the FreeBSD Jumpstart docs in the FreeBSD handbook and then try a PXE (Intel NIC) client. It all works fine - The client gets a DHCP IP address - it connects via tftp/NFS and downloads pxeboot, the kernel and mfsroot images - the BTX loader starts - the kernel loads - I get to the kernel configuration menu Then after proceeding past that point, i get the following: Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0x49435024 Anyone got any ideas?

A cool IPF firewall trick
Hi all, I run several FreeBSD/IPF based firewalls. I would really like to get some sort of basic visual representation as to what the firewall is doing without actually logging in and tailing logs. My idea is to have the HDD LED (red) light up when IPF blocks packets with an ipf block rule and the power LED (green) light up when traffic is passed with an ipf pass rule. Any one got any ideas where I would start to implement something this? Thanks in advance - Never lose a fax again, receive faxes to your personal email account!
