Re: port forward
The method suggested by Sunil will work fine but if you plan on using multiple redirects I would recommend doing this in rc.conf natd_flags=-config /etc/natd.conf and placing the multiple redirects into the file /etc/natd.conf like this redirect_port tcp 192.168.0.100:5900 5900 HTH mike Sunil Sunder Raj wrote: Hi, In rc.conf you need natd_flags=-redirect_port tcp 192.168.0.100:5900 5900 Regards SSR ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
domain names, named, and all the problems that go with it.
I registered a domain name from godaddy.com. They say you must select two
name servers to list on so I chose two of their park servers. I used their
website to add myself to one of the root servers and it worked fine. I now
want to run my own name server because I want to have several subdomains
such as 'person.example.com' and 'person2.example.com'. I took myself out
of the root nameserver with godaddy.com. I read the FreeBSD handbook about
how to run a nameserver, and here is what I have done.
my named.conf has this added to it. let's say my domain is example.com and
my my ip is 65.24.x.x
options {
directory /etc/namedb;
}
zone example.com {
type master;
file example.com.db;
};
and this is what I put in example.com.db
example.com. IN SOA ns1.example.com. admin.example.com. (
2002111005 ; Serial
30M ; Refresh
3600; Retry
604800 ; Expire
86400 ) ; Minimum TTL
; DNS Servers
@ IN NS ns1.example.com.
; Machine Names
localhost IN A127.0.0.1
ns1 IN A65.24.x.x
@ IN A65.24.x.x
; Aliases
person IN CNAME@
I want to run the nameserer and the http server from the same computer.
Now when I type in http://example.com I get nothing. Does anybody have an
idea about what I should do. Thanks for the help.

Re: domain names, named, and all the problems that go with it.
I found a good dns hosting service at hn.org. Thanks for all the help. Kevin Stevens said: I recommend Secondary.com; free for a small number of domains, very reliable. Pick another free server if you are concerned about better redundancy. Then list THOSE nameservers as your authoratitive nameservers in the zone file, so everybody and their brother hits THOSE servers for resolution, not yours. Permit zone transfers only for Secondary.coms's servers, tell BIND to send them notifies, and bob's your uncle. You have a secure system that doesn't have to be up 24/7, AND you have control of your domain space. You can run a split DNS (using views works well in 9.x) if you want to run a different or more extensive namespace inside your own network. KeS Note that none of this has anything to do with FreeBSD and it should probably go off to the bind list or somewhere...

/var filling up with X error logs
I've been having a nasty problem with my xserver log file being filled up with a strange message. Once /var gets to about 80% full the system really starts slowint down and I can't hardly X. At 90% it is unusable, as far as X is concnerned. Here is a sample of the output from xdm-errors log, which has gotten up to about 85mb: XFree86 Version 4.2.1 / X Window System (protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6600) Release Date: 3 September 2002 If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is newer than the above date, look for a newer version before reporting problems. (See http://www.XFree86.Org/) Build Operating System: FreeBSD 4.6.2-RELEASE i386 [ELF] Module Loader present Markers: (--) probed, (**) from config file, (==) default setting, (++) from command line, (!!) notice, (II) informational, (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mike ps my xfree86.0 log is about 85 mb too, but it has a lot more unique messages in it, if you need I can post it too.

Relatively cheap, well supported printer
I've had big trouble getting my Canon multifunction printer to work under FreeBSD. My question is, What printer can you all suggest as being well supported under FreeBSD, and at the same time relatively cheap. I saw a lexmark z23 for $49, but don't know if it would work very well. I'm looking for something sub $100. It doesn't need to do anything fancy; I'm going to print a lot of text and very few graphics.

I attempted to use the 5.0 current kernel and it stopped at the same point, however, it did recognize that it was a multimedia device, and that it had no driver for it. I was able to install Mandrake, without sound support, with no problems.

Failed install of 4.7 on laptop...
When I attempt to install FreeBSD 4.7, or any 4.x for that matter, I recieve this error during the initial boot. pci0: unknown card (vendor = 0x8086, dev = 0x2445) at 31.5 irq 11 pci0: unknown card (vendor = 0x8086, dev = 0x2445) at 31.6 irq 11 I've tried doing a kernel configuration to disable device pci0, but it says that this device doesn't exist. I know that pci0 is my soundcard because I tried to install 5.0 and it showed that it was multimedia device and soundcard. There is no way to disable sound in the bios. Does anybody have an idea about how to get around this problem, thanks in advance, mike ps laptop is toshiba satellite 1905-S301 To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
Re: Failed install of 4.7 on laptop...
John Bleichert said: Is this blocking the install or just an error you see during the install? On my Thinkpad there is a win32 utility available from IBM to set/disable all the onboard devices. Luckily there's also a Linux utility ps2). Does Toshiba provide any such utility? Search the freebsd-mobile list archives for your Satellite. # John Bleichert # http://vonbek.dhs.org/latest.jpg This is blocking me from installing the system because it simply won't run FreeBSD. Thanks for the suggestion on freebsd-mobile and the toshiba utilities, I'll look into it.
