Security Script
Hi All, Below is a link to a script I am currently in the process of writing. It's purpose is to apply some basic security settings to a FreeBSD 4.X server build. I wonder if any of you would mind taking a look and letting me know what you think, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. http://www.freebsdforums.org/forums/attachment.php?s=&postid=79277 Cheers Grez.. _ Hotmail messages direct to your mobile phone http://www.msn.co.uk/msnmobile ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Samsung ML-1210 & apsfilter
Has anyone managed to get the printer working with apsfilter? I know it needs the gdi ghostscript driver which I have confirmed is installed on my system. % gs -h | grep gdi lj5gray pj pjxl pjxl300 pxlmono pxlcolor pcl3 hpdj ijs npdl rpdl gdi However I can't find where I should select this driver in apsfilter. I have tried the PS (option 1) driver, but nothing happend. I have also tried the PSgs (options 2) driver, the printer starts but no output appears, and under option 3 I can't find the gdi driver. I can print to the command line fine using % cat /usr/local/share/ghostscript/7.05/examples/snowflak.ps | gs -q -dBATCH -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dQUIET -sDEVICE=gdi -sPAPERSIZE=a4 -r600 -sOutputFile=- - | cat > /dev/unlpt0 Does anyone have any ideas how I can get this printer working?

RE: FreeBSD 4.6 and PPP
First of all sorry about the duplicate post, I got a bounce message and sent it again by mistake. Anyway back to the problem. I went from 4.5 to 4.6 but the only reason I'm using ipnat is that I am doing port forwarding from my firewall to my internal server for some services (www and smtp) and I don't know how to use ppp -nat. The other reason is that I'm using the ppp.conf file that was supplied to my with the speedtouch USB modem software and I need to reload my rules manually before I can connect to the outside world, i'm assuming that this is because the ADSL connection is established after the ipf rules have been loaded. On closer inspection I have noticed that I have not indented the ipf and ipnat lines in my ppp.linkup file and being that the sample files are doing this I guess it is required (can't belive I missed that).
