Changing colors in shells
Lo folks, i would like to change the colors of the shell to FG=green BG=black. I do _not_ ask how to change the promt, i rather want to change the default FG BG colors, so that with whatever program (be it Konsole, putty, ssh.org, ...) i log in via SSH it uses this colors. I am aware of the fact that i can set up these colors in the clients itself, however this is not what i want. Where do i set them up?

TIA I don't know for sure whether it's possible or not, but mounting a remote FTP directory onto a local mount point does not sound like a good idea. You said that other network filesystems are not an option, but then neither FTP or SSH (assuming you meant FTP tunnelled through SSH) are networking filesystems either. The two popular implemtations of network filesystems are NFS (Unix) and SMB (Unix via Samba, Windows). You should take a close look at those since you will get much better performance and security with them than by grafting an FTP directory to your filesystem. If you need this in order to do your job and don't have administrator access to the remote machine(s), then petition your system administrator to look into NFS or SMB. C. Ulrich Of course you are right when you say there are better solutions for network-filesystems, and i use them when i have access to the server config. However most servers i work on are mass-products where your personal need for features is always answered by "upgrade your account". This, in turn, arises the need for some other (OS-level) solution. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Thanx! Hiho! :-) First of all, sorry for answering that late, i forgot about your mail for some time and remembered it just recently. You need both dummynet (the freebsd traffic shaper) and ipfw (firewall) to do this. And i strongly suggest that you do a "man ipfw" and read through it, else you won't really understand what the firewall rules do :-) If you have not enabled both of them in your kernel, you need to do so. options are: options IPFW2 (might be obsolete in 5.0) options IPFIREWALL options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE (optional) options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT=100(optional) options IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT(optional) options DUMMYNET options HZ=1000 I'd also suggest to do a "man ipfw" and read through the whole thing, its really worth it. After you've installed the new kernel, you need to create a config file for ipfw which tells it to give high priority to the small ( < 64 byte) tcp packets. Mine looks like this: pipe 1 config bw 132kbit/s queue 10kbyte This creates a dummynet pipe which bandwidth is approximately equal to the max. adsl upstream, the "queue 10kbyte" part tells it to create a 10kbbyte packer-buffer for that pipe (I'v not really figured out yet what the optimal buffer size is, this size works fine for normal traffic but you might run into latency-problems if you play online games). queue 1 config weight 50 pipe 1 add 597 queue 4 ip from me to any src-port 41000-42000,21,20 out This creates a dummynet queue which is linked to a pipe and is used to give certain priority to the traffic sent through the pipe linked to the queue. The priority is given through the "weight value" command. "value" can be anything from 1 to 100. The higher the value, the higher the priority. Traffic piped through this queue has a high priority (50), so this is the pipe that will be used for the small tcp-packets Ok, now you need to create a second queue to pipe the "normal" upstream through (ftp traffic, p2p, whatever other traffic there is :-) ). Naturally, you want to give this traffic a lower priority than the tcp-control-packets. (i gave it priority 1, but i believe higher values up to 10 would also work). queue 2 config weight 1 pipe 1 # ftp traffic out Ok, now comes the tricky part. You've to tell the firewall (ipfw) which kind of packets are to be sent to the queues. add 550 queue 1 ip from me to any iplen 46 out add 551 queue 1 ip from me to any iplen 47 out add 552 queue 1 ip from me to any iplen 48 out add 553 queue 1 ip from me to any iplen 49 out add 554 queue 1 ip from me to any iplen 50 out add 555 queue 1 ip from me to any iplen 51 out add 5

IPFW smart networkshaping like in Linux
Lo ppl, a few month ago there was an article in the german computer mag "c't" which described how to tune an ADSL connection. One of the tips was to give small IP-packages (64 bytes and less) a high priority. According to the article this will result in an improved behaviour when up- and downstream are both busy at the same time. As i suffer exactly this problem, i would like to try it out on FreeBSD 5. As i can not find what the command would be in FreeBSD - and if it is even supported, i hope some of you FreeBSD / Linux guys can help me out. Here is the Linux command: # iptables -A POSTROUTING -t mangle -o ppp0 -p tcp -m length --length :64 -j MARK --set-mark 12 The comlete script can be downloaded here: http://www.heise.de/ct/ftp/02/24/224/ What would be the options in FreeBSD?

FreeBSD 4.7 +JDK 1.4.x
Hi there, did anybody ever get this (FreeBSD 4.7 and JDK 1.4.x) to run? While it works as root, it crashes immediately with any other users. I have tried sun, blackdown and ibm JDKs, none of them worked with "normal" users. IBM freezed even as root. Sticking with 1.3.1 is not an option in this case.

Strange FreeBSD / KDE behaviour during network problems
Hi there, today our company's inet falled out for a few hours. Only intranet worked. During this time I've booted my FreeBSD-STABLE (which took quite long due to ntpdate and hostname) and tried to start KDE with "startx". It did not work and din't even print messages to the console. So I rebooted and tried again. Sometimes KDE started, sometimes it didn't, and other times it started very slowly. Also not all (KDE) applications could be launched. Well, I wonder what this could be. From my point of view this is rather undefinable, and the sylogs don't reveal anything useful neither. What could be the reason - and more important - how do I make my workstation work properly without inet? Thx -- +++ GMX - Mail, Messaging & more http://www.gmx.net +++ NEU: Mit GMX ins Internet.

You can make a copy e.g. to /root and then run it with # pkg_add -r cvsup-without-gui # cvsup ports-supfile Be sure to install the Port "portupgrade" and read it's manpage. It is a great tool! # pkg_add -r portupgrade With portupgrade you can even upgrade all ports at once: # portupgrade -rRPv \* Have fun! P.S.: Chapter 4 of the FreeBSD handbook.

You probably don't want to prompt to > deinstall those. Yes, that is what i want. On my system there aren't a lot of packages, and usually i know which i installed. The solution to my original problem is very easy - i found it by accident, when i was reading docs out of boredom and curiosity! :) pkg_deinstall -rn *portname* -r will show all packages that require *portname* to be installed -n will prevent pkg_deinstall from actually performing the actions It may also be run with -Rn instead of -rn to find what packages *portname* needs to run. Yet this does not show a list, i still need to pick the port manually out of the pkg_version or pkg_info list.

Bluetooth (BlueZ) or WLAN in FreeBSD
Lo ppl, i'd like to link a WinME PC to my FreeBSD via Bluetooth or WLAN, depending on what works and / or is cheaper. The (air-line) distance is around 10 meters through 2 walls. What would you recommend for this scenario (e.g., what drivers will work fine with FreeBSD)? - 2 WLAN devices - Internal PCI card - external USB box Or - 2 bluetooth USB dongles While i'm sure i will find a way to make windows use ip over bluetooth, i wonder if FreeBSD in the latest release will make it. I found this project: http://bluez.sourceforge.net The FreeBSD mailing archives lead me to this link, but on this site it talks of Linux only, and i cannot compile it on FreeBSD =( The bluetooth solution seems smarter to me, and i'd love to see it work on my fav OS, as i can plug it out and carry it around in my pocket, use it with cellular phones, notebooks, other computers etc, so i would try this if bluetooth is supported at least in a basic manner.

[SSH] Session Problem w/ 2 FreeBSDs
Lo ppl, i've set up a FreeBSD server in the Intranet, so that we (my team and i) can use it for testing purposes and hacking. My colleagues use W2K and can connect to the server via their SSH immedeatly, but when i try to connect to it (i'm using FreeBSD as my workstation-OS), it hangs a while until it prompts me for the password. Curious about what the reason might be, i startet the SSH-server in debug mode (sshd -ddd), and got that line right before the hang: debug3: Trying to reverse map address 210.104.1.133. That IP is my WS'. After a minute (i think), i receive the password-prompt at my client, and the server tells me: Could not reverse map address 210.104.1.133. debug1: PAM setting rhost address to "210.104.1.133". debug3: Attempting authentication for pg. Once i'm in, i can type and see the commands right away. Whats the reason for this lag? Maybe some sort of resolve name of host issue? Any hints appreciated.
