ppp -auto limited to certain times only?
Hi, I have fixed-rate dialup access from my ISP but only off-peak. I just found out that they let me connect at other times but charge me extra so I want to avoid doing this accidentally. I'd like to run ppp -auto so that I get dial on demand in the evening, but stop it connecting in the daytime. I thought of using a cron job to start and stop ppp but is there a more elegant way?

Two Questions
1. I use booteasy to allow me to boot between FreeBSD and Win 2k. However, the boot menu has ?? when referring to Win 2k. Is there any way I can configure booteasy so that it'll display Windows 2000? 2. Whenever KDE starts, the GNOME top menu and bottom slide bar comes up. It is quite annoying. Is there anyway to stop that from happening?

Re: Potentially **DANGEROUS** bug in 5.0 - 5.1
Remington L. said: I have a Sony VAIO GRX-570 laptop. When 5.0-R came out I noticed VERY unusual symptoms on startx. This is very hard to describe(I'm gonna get a picture and post). When I launch startx the screen goes blank, and imagine this ocean wave type thing sweep across my screen. Its not like just some a screensaver, you can tell by looking at it that its not good. The symptom lasts about 4 seconds and then it stops, and my system is frozen, no error, no kernel panic. This also happens in 5.1, but NOT in 4.8 As I said its very hard to describe, I will attempt to grab a picture and Ill repost. What should I do about this bug?

Re: directv satellite internet conection

Dial-In Lines
Gentlemen, I am attempting to setup a Dial-in line on my FreeBSD box running RELEASE-4.7. I have an external US Robotics modem and I know that the modem is working as it should (I connected it to my windows box and was able to issue the AT commands to configure it as they were listed on the freebsd website) My problem is this. The modem answers incoming calls but I am never presented with a login prompt. I've looked over my ttys and gettytab files and best I can tell they are exactally as they should be (I'm going from what I found on the FreeBSD site). Are there other files I need to check? I've set this up in the past under earlier releases and all I had to do was comment out the lines in the ttys file and do a kill -HUP 1 and the fact it's not working is driving me nuts. I welcome any and all suggestions. Thanks in advance for your help.

Re: about the kernel location
As stated in the FreeBSD Handbook - Chapter 9 - Section 3 ( http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig-building.html ) First, let us take a quick tour of the kernel build directory. All directories mentioned will be relative to the main /usr/src/sys directory, ... Note: If there is not a /usr/src/sys directory on your system, then the kernel source has not been installed. The easiest way to do this is by running /stand/sysinstall as root, choosing Configure, then Distributions, then src, then sys. ... Next, move to the arch/conf directory and copy the GENERIC configuration file to the name you want to give your kernel. For example: # cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf # cp GENERIC MYKERNEL Thus on i386 (intel, amd, cyrix) hardware the base configuration file will be /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC. In the same directory you will find a LINT file that contains all the (mostly nicely commented) options you can possibly set for your kernel. On an alpha system the directory is /usr/src/sys/alpha/conf/.

Re[2]: Problems w NIC
Do you have IPFW or IPFilter compiled into the kernel? If so what do `ipfw list` and/or `ipfstat -ion` show? -- Benmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Saturday, January 11, 2003, 12:53:49 PM, you wrote: Yes, right. Sorry, I somehow missed that point in the original post! When you ping, do you see any activity at all on your hub/switch?

Re: NAT Help
Thanks again for the help. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to have worked either. I've entered: ifconfig fxp0 alias x.x.x.x This simply replaces the existing fxp0 settings from rc.conf with the alias settings (resulting in a loss of network connectivity. I've removed the original alias0 - aliasx lines from rc.conf so the only fxp0 line is now for the main IP address for the interface: ifconfig_fxp0=inet x.x.x.x netmask 255.255.255.248 Regards, Ben Craig. --- Alvaro Rosales R. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: that's the problema , you have to add the ifconfig alias , manually, I had the saame problem , trying to add the aliases in rc.conf , so I had to add the aliases manually, then you have to kill natd and restart it manually somefing like ifconfig rl1 alias x.x.x.x (a free external ipo address) and then I run killall natd natd -redirect_address internal ip x.x.x.x -interface rl1 Then ou'll have NAT running, youd better create a script in rc.local to load this commands at boot time.

Problem with the upgrade and now I need to rollback.. =/
Ok well I attempted the upgrade on a remote machine from 4.6 to 5.0 and it failed, miserably. Before it failed, it was throwing a message across the screen as to the location where it backed up the existing kernel. Does anyone, by chance, know the default location and filename for the kernel backup? Also, if anyone has a link on the rollback procedure on a FreeBSD kernel (4.6) that would be greatly appreciated also. My searches on FreeBSD.org and google haven't turned up much. Mostly mysql documents which I find a little hard to believe that mysql has that much higher ranking pages then the FreeBSD site. At any rate, please if you can, help... while I write 1,000 times on the chalkboard I will not attempt an upgrade on the server when I don't have it sitting in front of me.

NAT Help
Hi, I'm trying to get NAT up and running on my FreeBSD 4.7R gateway machine and have hit a bit of a wall. Have looked around online for FAQs and other help and haven't really been able to isolate the problem this way. If anyone can offer advice, I would be most appreciative. I have a FreeBSD machine configured as a gateway for a LAN. The BSD machine has two NICs (fxp0 and vr0). fxp0 is connected to a router via ethernet, which in turn is connected to the Net via ADSL. The router is very basic and doesn't have all of the functions we require, hence the BSD box being the gateway. vr0 is connected to a hub for the LAN, which all uses internal 10.0.0.x IP addressing. The FreeBSD box provides DHCP for this range. All of this is working correctly. We also have a couple of external IPs which I would like to map onto a couple of servers on the private LAN, and herein lies the problem. I just can't seem to get NAT working to redirect these IPs from the BSD machine to the relevant internal IP. On the BSD machine, I've compiled a kernel with the following options: options IPFIREWALL options IPDIVERT options IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE The following options exist in rc.conf: gateway_enable=YES firewall_enable=YES firewall_type=OPEN natd_enable=YES natd_interface=fxp0 natd_flags=-redirect_address 10.0.0.2 x.x.x.x -redirect_address 10.0.0.3 x.x.x.x (where x.x.x.x is of course the external IP). rc.conf also contains the following ipconfig settings for the external IP addresses (of which there are 5). ifconfig_fxp0_alias0=inet x.x.x.x netmask 255.255.255.248 ifconfig_fxp0_alias1=inet x.x.x.x netmask 255.255.255.248 ifconfig_fxp0_alias2=inet x.x.x.x netmask 255.255.255.248 ifconfig_fxp0_alias3=inet x.x.x.x netmask 255.255.255.248 ifconfig_fxp0_alias4=inet x.x.x.x netmask 255.255.255.248 alias0 is used as the IP address for the gateway machine and my intention is to redirect traffic on the remaining four addresses to other machines on the LAN. This is where it falls down and I'm stumped. Regards, Ben Craig. = -- Benjamin Craig Executive Producer Cinemagine Limited __ Do You Yahoo!?
