Completely jailed tinderbox?
Dear list, Has anyone ever succeeded to run a tinderbox in a jail who is willing to elaborate on the configuration because it's driving me NUTS. Happy to do that off-list and summarise later on. Looks like neither NFS nor nullfs mounts would work in a jail which is breaking tinderbox builds. Sysctls are set to permit mounts etc. Thanks, Peter. -- GRATIS für alle GMX-Mitglieder: Die maxdome Movie-FLAT!

IP-Based Apache Config
Hi there, I could need a quick hand from someone with apache22 and maybe apache-in-a-jail experience. I want to set up locally apache22 on a given IP (it's in a jail here) and use files for name service. nsswitch.conf does this per default so files take precedence -- if resolution worked that way which I currently am not that much sure about anymore. I set Servername to IP:80 just as to resolv-conf-hostname:80 after reading another post [1] and some more of the apache dox [2] (but left the rest of the config alone for the time being). A also do see the connection via tcpdump both at the router connected to the jail as well as the jail server itself as much as I see the connections in netstat both in and outside the jail. However, I do NOT see ANYthing in any apache logs, and tcpdump confirms that all that is established is the TCP connection. Also, when I telnet IP 80 and GET /, it goes into the server, and all remains quiet thereafter. I think I probably overlook something utterly obvious and simple but since I don't have any straws from logs to cling to, I currently don't seem to be able to get my head around it. Hence, any help appreciated. Thanks, Peter. --- [1] http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-jail/2009-November/001057.html [2] http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/dns-caveats.html -- GRATIS für alle GMX-Mitglieder: Die maxdome Movie-FLAT!

Re: 'Serious' crypto? (was: FreeBSD router - large scale)
Hi Chuck, Thanks for the response. Or is it still worthwhile to consider hardware accelerators such as the ones guys like soekris [1] and others offer? Does anyone have an idea how much such an accelerator may help on older vs. on newer hardware? Something like a 1GHz P3 or equivalent can generally do the symmetric crypto about as fast as a decent PCI crypto card like the HiFN 795x could; bus limitations made faster CPUs better, although a newer PCIe crypto device ought to be more competitive. What matters more for some common use cases is that crypto H/W tends to do asymmetric crypto like RSA/DSA signing to negotiate a shared session key-- aka SSL session creation for SSL websites, secure email, SSH keys, etc much faster than normal CPUs could. I guess I try first without and see where I hit the ceiling. Then go to plan b. I was more thinking of many IPSEC connections but then there's also only so many slots and so many NICs in them. I'll try without and monitor that for a while and then see what happens. Would multiple engines work (and help) at all? From crypto(4), I would not guess so. One consequence would be that there may be certain limitations in using a separate accelerator once the platform comes with its own accelerator device? Sure, you can setup multiple engines, although this does better if you have separate services using each, since you do want to use an SSL session cache, but you don't want to pollute one for HTTPS with sessions from IMAPS and vice versa. Also, the config interface for Apache/IIS/whatever, or Dovecot/Cyrus/Exchange, etc might not let you specify more than one SSLEngine. On the other hand, it's not very much coding to adjust things to use multiple engines even within Apache or whatever-- I can recall some custom webserver modules from CryptoSwift for NSAPI / ISAPI / ASAPI which let you use multiple CryptoSwift boxes via ethernet network or local PCI slots, for example. Hmm... I was thinking more like round-robin the devices but I probably now too little about 'serious' crypto to see the side-effects. Anyways, I think the question is a bit academic at this time since I probably divide the servers anyways. Thanks again, All the best regards, Peter. -- GRATIS für alle GMX-Mitglieder: Die maxdome Movie-FLAT!

Re: 'Serious' crypto?
Hi Matthew, Thanks for the response. NAT. Doing serious crypto slows things up somewhat. I've been pondering this since a while but thought that crypto engines on modern hardware would make 'extra' hardware accelerators obsolete? Yes -- in many use cases this is true. Modern processors are fast enough that they don't need an external accelerator to perform. It doesn't mean that running crypto imposes *no* extra cost on a server. For instance, a web server running HTTP will (roughly speaking) be able to support an order of magnitude more simultaneous sessions than the same site served over HTTPS. And a hardware crypto device will level HTTPS to the HTTP volume without it? Or is it still worthwhile to consider hardware accelerators such as the ones guys like soekris [1] and others offer? Does anyone have an idea how much such an accelerator may help on older vs. on newer hardware? Those soekris boards are designed to work in low power (both in wattage and in compute capability) appliances. That is a perfectly viable alternative design for a crypto-gateway router / packet filter intended for traffic levels within the specification they claim. That is what I currently consider. The low power is a good thing. I just wonder whether it is worthwhile to hunt for a newer hardware (= more expensive, both in wattage and procurement) or stick to a known platform and just add a new component. Hmmm... 250Mb/s IPSec throughput is (I think -- not having tried this, I cannot be certain) easily accessible through a fairly run of the mill server such as the HP Proliant DL120 G6. Of course, the HP box costs about 4--5 times as much as the Soekris. It will have a great deal more spare RAM, disk, compute capacity etc. No idea abut on-going support costs, but I don't think you could get support cover with a 4 hour on-site response from Soekris... I know the DL series though I have used more the DL360 G4-G6 ones. I like something with low noise and power intake, hopefully achieving passive cooling. Would multiple engines work (and help) at all? From crypto(4), I would not guess so. One consequence would be that there may be certain limitations in using a separate accelerator once the platform comes with its own accelerator device? One feature that hardware accelerator boards provide which is hard to get otherwise is plenty of random numbers on tap. Generating cryptographically strong randomness in volume is pretty hard computationally, and a hardware solution really helps things like IPSec throughput. I think I do understand that (I hope :)) Also, if you need really high volume crypto traffic throughput (multiple Gb/s levels), then yes, you will need specialised hardware. However, in this case, you're likely to be using pretty fancy routers (Cisco, Juniper, etc.) and those all have options for hardware acceleration built into interface cards. Yes, I know the Ciscos very well but currently the Junipers look more appropriate to me for one application we have. The Junipers probably go outside the ASAs inside. My reason for the post was considering more another 'quiet' and 'lowpower' project I have, so that's probably a completely different pair of shoes. I'll try without first and then see what comes out of it. Thanks again, and All the best, Peter. -- GRATIS für alle GMX-Mitglieder: Die maxdome Movie-FLAT!

Re: 'Serious' crypto?
Hi Matthew, And a hardware crypto device will level HTTPS to the HTTP volume without it? Probably. The usual approach with HTTPS once traffic levels get big enough is crypto-offload. You use a separate device as the crypto endpoint: typically built into a load balancer. You can do this using a PF based firewall using relayd(8) for a lot less money, and in this case one crypto accelerator card in your firewall could support several webservers behind it. That's pretty close to what I had in mind though I considered a separate device in a DMZ for load balancing and mod_proxy/mod_security, as a minimum. However, HTTP(s) is only one of so many protocols. Heh. When I said 'pretty fancy kit' I meant something considerably more *shiny* than a Cisco ASA5510. In fact, running OpenBSD on a commodity Ok, you win that one :) We typically use one up from that as a minimum. Dunno if that regains me my face though... server is roughly performance compatible with a 5510 but considerably cheaper if you want all the trimmings like high-availability, unlimited numbers of servers, GB on all interfaces etc. That is all true but these arguments do only work if you talk to security-literate people, not managers who prefer something with a real seal on and regular updates etc. Since the latter are the ones who authorise the cash, here we go. There are some who I can convince but frequently it's just not worth the discussion. Imho, unfortunately, but I don't want to start an advocacy thread here. Note that ASA5510 level kit tends to do things like deep packet inspection, content based filtering etc. [Not to mention fubar'ing EDNS0 and screwing with SMTP so hard it breaks.] PF itself is purely based on dealing with packet headers: however you can easily add things like squid caching and filtering, snort etc. but these will ramp up the CPU requirements beyond what a small appliance could support. As indicated initially, I intend to shift the load off the firewall to a separate device which then may do a lot more to the traffic than the firewall. But I don't see why I should'nt try to use the same kind of hardware platform for both. However it may be, I first set up this with the hardware I already have and then see what I find and where to optimise best before going to series. I also must improve significantly on my config management before I actually can do that just as others do when I look at other threads. My reason for the post was considering more another 'quiet' and 'lowpower' project I have, so that's probably a completely different pair of shoes. I'll try without first and then see what comes out of it. Commodity servers certainly don't fulfil the quiet requirement. Most of them have enough fannage to build a fairly respectable hovercraft. Nope, they don't. I used to dry my hair behind the cabinets. And I used to have a lot of that :) Thanks again for your responses, and All the best regards, Peter. -- GRATIS für alle GMX-Mitglieder: Die maxdome Movie-FLAT!

Dear list, This probably is obvious but I don't seem to be able to figure out where I should look in order to learn why I can't compile the bloomin' kernel, pse see below. Every time I update my KERNCONF, I try to remember to keep a copy of GENERIC so I can diff against the updated one. This diff shows no change hence I believe my KERNCONF is in order. Which I did not expect since the running kernel is not that old: FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE #17: Thu May 6 10:21:19 UTC 2010 I also read that config(8) was updated so I finally tried to remake world hoping that that's where it comes from but (well in agreement with my expectations that /usr/src should be self-contained :)) without avail.

Re: Desktop Install Option
Hi, So, I've been wondering about something. FreeBSD is a general purpose operating system, even though it has historically only heavily been used on servers. Why is it that FreeBSD doesn't provide a desktop installation, something similar to say Debian's option of Standard Desktop? For those who need it, it'd be great. Not sure what you are looking for but I have a feeling that it may be something like http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/url.cgi?ports/sysutils/desktopbsd-tools/pkg-descr http://desktopbsd.net/ Rgds, Peter. -- GRATIS für alle GMX-Mitglieder: Die maxdome Movie-FLAT!

Hi, When I am logged in as a non-root user and I try to become root by entering su and typing the root password, the resulting bash prompt does not reflect the contents of /root/.bash_profile Because .bash_profile is only seen on login, not on 'su'.

Re: FreeBSD Networking Questions / vlan, lagg, routing, FIBs, ezjail
Now, it is my suspicion that the apparent need for promisc at the router end indeed is an apperent one and not really the router's fault but rather the other end's. The other end, in this case, is the server below. If the server, with its single MIB, default-routes its packets through one specific of its vlans which may not be the one, at the router's end, with the corresponding IP network the traffic entered into the net, would it be possible that there's something preventing them be received? Unless there's promisc on, of course... I'll grab the laptop next time I think of it and have the switch monitor traffic to it to see what really is on the wire, maybe that helps and gives me a clue. I just keep forgetting the bl**dy thing each time I leave... Ok, after a good portion of fiddling with the switch, it seems that you cannot copy traffic from link-aggregated ports to a monitor port on a Linksys SRW2016. Now out at my wits end here it seems. I'll try the FIB approach hopefully next week then. - On my server, is there any way to set up individual default routes (to the router) for each of the vlans short of tucking the ezjails behind the vlan interfaces each into their own FIB (btw,. has anyone ever done that?)? Yes, from FreeBSD-7.1 and beyond, there is support for up to 16 routing tables. Use the setfib command to select routing table for outgoing connections. So, I interpret your response as that I am correct, I have a single default route per FIB, and that's it. Which effectively means that I do need FIBs. I agree that this behaviour might make some sense :) Something like, setfib 10 jail $JAILOPTSANDARGS, in the jail case. You have to compile a kernel with the option ROUTETABLES=n.

Re: FreeBSD Networking Questions / vlan, lagg, routing, FIBs, ezjail
Hiya Nikos, re list, Hm, the promiscuous mode must be needed for the vlan driver. But you don't have to set it. It does not work without, at the router end. Suspicions, please see below. I can't think of any implication in a switched ethernet environment. It is just that every frame received from the cable is offered to the operating system for further evaluation. In a switched ethernet environment every frame that will reach your card will be either: 1) for you. 2) a broadcast frame. 3) a multicast frame. And hence there should be no (notable) effect. That is my interpretation, yes. Things would be very different, if your system was connected to a hub where a multitude of frames(every frame on the ethernet) would be interrupting the kernel for no reason. Exactly. But I connect to a switch and hence expect the behaviour detailed above. Now, it is my suspicion that the apparent need for promisc at the router end indeed is an apperent one and not really the router's fault but rather the other end's. The other end, in this case, is the server below. If the server, with its single MIB, default-routes its packets through one specific of its vlans which may not be the one, at the router's end, with the corresponding IP network the traffic entered into the net, would it be possible that there's something preventing them be received?

Re: Fujitsu Siemens Promergy RX100S4
Hi, I think that if it is hardware RAID, you should see only one disk. My Promise controller does have my disks show up as ar0 -- but the disks are there as individuals (ad*) as well, and accessible (though I only use ar0*, for hopefully obvious reasons). At least, that's what I saw last time I looked (running 7-STABLE around ~7.1-RELEASE). I can check tonight if you want (and I get home on time ;-)).

Re: MGA(0): Unable to map BAR 0. Invalid argument (22) / X.Org Server V. 1.5.3, mga_drv V. 1.9.100, 7.1-STABLE
Hi Warren, The last time I saw that error was on a -CURRENT test system several months ago. That system is updating now to the latest -CURRENT. Time will not be available for at least the next few days to try 7.1, but I'll see what I can do. I know that feeling, so thanks for offering. Please take it easy :) The 1.4.9 version of mga may work. I'd give portdowngrade instructions for it, but the anoncvs server isn't answering. I did eye that, funny you say so. I found on some X.org repository that 1.4.9 was considerably 'younger' than 1.9.100. I may (might) have a look at it tonight depending on when I may get outta here. If you have the option of replacing the Matrox card, better-supported Radeons are available in AGP, PCI, and PCIE versions. Oh, I had even less success with a radeon in an IBM box but that's admittedly before 7.4 and probably another story. I'll have another dig into my junk box but so far I only got PCI out of it (and the G200 has AGP, dunno if that makes *the* difference though ;-)).

I had to DefaultDepth 16 in the Screen to really get her up (errors otherwise, [1]). The other option probably is to go w/o DRI, and I really may consider that since it looks kinda crappy still -- but not today anymore.

FreeBSD Networking Questions / vlan, lagg, routing, FIBs, ezjail
Dear all, While I'm at it, I don't seem to be able to get my head around some networking items I observed (currently only vlan(4), not ng_vlan(4), if that makes a difference): - On my router, why do I have to set the base interface to promiscuous mode in order to get packets from/to my vlans through? Am I doing something wrong? Are there any implications of working this way? - On my server, is there any way to set up individual default routes (to the router) for each of the vlans short of tucking the ezjails behind the vlan interfaces each into their own FIB (btw,. has anyone ever done that?)? So I'm stuck and would appreciate a hand. It probably is something pretty obvious which I persistently ignore, or something stupid I attempt to do here but I got curious now :) Thanks a lot, and All the best, Peter. -- Nur bis 16.03.!

MGA(0): Unable to map BAR 0. Invalid argument (22) / X.Org Server V. 1.5.3, mga_drv V. 1.9.100, 7.1-STABLE
Dear all, I have an odd Xorg error with a Matrox G200 card here. I have googled for it but only found dual-head installations, plus comments that it allegedly is fixed with the new FreeBSD Xorg 1.5.3 ports. However, as I still see the error, I poked about and could not find much of the changes people had suggested in the driver as unpacked from current ports. But since XFree, Xorg and the various releases are a complete miracle to me, my evaluation may just be plain wrong. So, if there was anyone knowing how to possibly fix the matter, I'd appreciate a hint (or two or so ;-)).

Help sought for new nvtv (NVidia TV-Out) port (was: ? getopt_long(), iopl() and ioperm() ?)
[follow-ups please to FreeBSD-Multimedia and Cc: to me, for the time being.
- Thanks!]
Hi there,
I have started to fiddle with a program called nvtv which supposedly makes
the tv-out
on my graphics card work (an nVidia Corporation NV20 [GeForce3 Ti200]), and
possibly
some other NVidia-based cards, too. However, as it turns out, odds are
against me and
my (very) limited programming abilities; I have the bugger on my table for
several
weeks now without making real progress. To a certain extent, this is also
due to the
workload I currently have from the hand that feeds me.
Therefore, I have decided to make a preliminary port and start to look for
someone who
knows more better than I do. Please find enclosed a tar ball (relative to
/usr/
ports) of the port skeleton I made. To build, it needs a modified version
of the
pciutils port as it requires the pci.h headers and the libpci.a library.
There is a
diff against pciutils-2.1.11's Makefile below (I took the freedom to label
it
PORTREVISION=1 ;-)).
The preliminary port apparently installs and deinstalls ok, but it has a
good lot of
pecularities and todos which I also list and discuss below.
So, if you wish to help, it is very much so appreciated. Please be patient
with me,
however, as I probably only have time at weekends for some time to come. 8-S
Keep me Cc'd if urgent ;-) I dig into the digest otherwise...
Please also be advised that this program may still be very unstable, crash
your box,
burn your video and cause data loss, make your wife go away, etc., so
understand that
you play with it at your own risk.
Finally, my special thanks go to the people on the Bcc list for providing
hints, help
and/or other support on the way here. Thank you, folks!
Thanks again and
all the best,
Peter.
--- --- ---
Here is the patch to pciutils-2.1.11's Makefile (sorry, cutpaste, you may
have to
replace some spaces with tabs 8-S):
$ diff Makefile Makefile.orig
10d9
PORTREVISION= 1
44,49c43
# This makes nvtv compile under FreeBSD:
@${INSTALL_DATA} ${WRKSRC}/lib/libpci.a ${PREFIX}/lib
@${MKDIR} ${PREFIX}/include/pci
@${INSTALL_DATA} ${WRKSRC}/lib/pci.h ${PREFIX}/include/pci

@dirrm include/pci

include/pci/header.h
--- --- ---
Here's a list of issues I have with my attached port skeleton. Most of these
are
included as todos in my Makefile. I include some remarks further below.
(i) Currently, nvtv is 'untested'
(ii)Unknown/unsure whether to add nvidia-drivers dependency or not
(iii) Find bsd replacement for iopl() and ioperm()
(iv)Fix port to honour MANx
(v) Fix configure/configure.in to properly configure gtk in
(vi)Fix port to install properly named binaries/manpages (see pkg-plist)
(vii) Clear up handling of different gtk versions
(viii) Write pkg-descr.
--- --- ---
Here's the above list with a couple of cents of my thoughts about these.
(i) Currently, nvtv is 'untested'
At this point, I have not been able to successfully use my tv-out, because
apparently
my card's Philips SAA7108E is not detected properly. This may or may not be
a bug in
nvtv, and I already have loose contact to the author of it about that
matter, so
please let me know if you have or have not success with that chip (or any
other).
(ii)Unknown/unsure whether to add nvidia-drivers dependency or not
I would not expect any effect, but as I currently can't properly test,
please do check
the -N/--nvdev option if you have a chance (and the confidence ;-).
(iii) Find bsd replacement for iopl() and ioperm()
There is an occurrence of either one in the code once. I don't know what
they do and
even less whether there's an appropriate replacement for them on FreeBSD.
Since I
simply commented these out in order to be able to build (see the patch file
in files/
patch-src___card_direct.c.aa), owners of Vodoo 3 and Intel cards currently
will have
no joy with this nvtv port.
(iv)Fix port to honour MANx
Should be minor, but must probably fix the binary naming issue first (see
below).
Don't forget to amend pkg-plist accordingly, as this currently catches the
man pages.
(v) Fix configure/configure.in to properly configure gtk in
To me, this smells like a problem inherited from the configure.in/.ac files.
That's a
terrain in which I am *absolutely* lost, so please do help, thank you. In
any case,
currently configure is broken and 'forgets' to add the gtk version to
${WRKSRC}/src/
config.h (if you manually fix it in there, the gui can be built and used,
though).

Re: ? getopt_long(), iopl() and ioperm() ?
# [EMAIL PROTECTED] / 2003-10-19 01:59:45 +0200: I'm hacking at a piece of code that I want to turn into a port. It's from Linux and uses libpci and some other 'strange' functions. While I think that I've managed to modify the libpci port to install the required lib, I'm more or less lost at getopt_long() which I assume is in the libgnugetopt port. However, for some reason, even if I include it explicitly (#include /usr/local/include/getopt.h), I run into problems. Please note that I'm not a programmer at all, so it's very much hacking along, so I may look for someone patient to bear with me ;-) But I am willing to learn. AFAICT you need to tell the compiler about the library. The rule in your Makefile needs to have -L /usr/local/lib -lgnugetopt. Thanks for that, Roman, I did so and got some sort of binary to play with. For a port, however, I think I must dig in deeper, or rather climb higher for that matter -- autoconf co. are used for making the makefiles, so I probably must fix it there somewhere there. If it was for plain makefiles, I might not have the problems I see, but this is something entirely new for me ;-) The best way is to set USE_GETOPT_LONG=yes in your port Makefile. # USE_GETOPT_LONG - Says that the port uses getopt_long. If OSVERSION # less than 500041, automatically adds devel/libgnugeopt # to LIB_DEPENDS, and pass adjusted values of # CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS in CONFIGURE_ENV. # Default: not set. Thanks, Dan, I'm not that far yet. As I said above, I'm still trying to understand what is required by nvtv in the first place. There still seem to be bugs in there, at least with my card. I have contact with the author who is willing to help as long as I can build and test. Which I sort of achieved now with your help and the of a friend. Anyways, as I must have overread that comment in bsd.ports.mk, thanks for the pointer. In any case, if it makes to be a port, I'll proceed as suggested. So, thanks for the help and watch ports@ if it ever makes it there ;-)==) All the best, Peter. Btw, iopl() and ioperm() I currently simply get around by uncommenting them. Which probably makes those sections unuseable for the cards covered there, so I would not mind a hint for these by any other reader ;-) -- NEU FÜR ALLE - GMX MediaCenter - für Fotos, Musik, Dateien...

? getopt_long(), iopl() and ioperm() ?
Hi there, I'm hacking at a piece of code that I want to turn into a port. It's from Linux and uses libpci and some other 'strange' functions.

Please note that I'm not a programmer at all, so it's very much hacking along, so I may look for someone patient to bear with me ;-) But I am willing to learn. A similar story applies to the iopl() and the ioperm() functions which are used in a part of the code which I personally don't require but others may (if this ever reaches port status which I hope it does ;-)). For these functions, I don't even know how to replace them. Well, I think there still is some bug in the configure script that goes with it, but basically that's the story for the time being. Hints are very much so appreciated, though I may need some time to think them over and apply them due to my limited programming abilities. Thanks a lot for reading this far, all the best, Peter. PS: Please be so kind and keep me Cc:'ed on this matter, it helps me to note replies earlier and ensures a slightly more timely response, thank you! -- NEU FÜR ALLE - GMX MediaCenter - für Fotos, Musik, Dateien...
