I agree that SNI is suboptimal, unfortunately it was the best of bad solutions: - We just don't have enough IPv4 addresses to dedicate one per virtual hostname. - We could use IPv6 only which means excluding even more "legacy" clients. - Bundling all sites under www.freebsd.org creates problems with cookies, more pain in configuration, and less flexibility in moving things around. - Using SubjectAlternatName (SAN) certificates where strongly considered, but fewer CA's support them (most have no clue) and it becomes a lot more painful to add new hosts.

Re: Boot-time hard drive errors
Have you tried Pause/Break to see if you could feeze the screen to get the error message? I would stress test all three drives to see if they pass with flying colors. One or more of your drives could be indeed flaky, regardless being new, that means little. Also, something could be conflicting from time to time, that could also show up under stress testing. Make backup if you have important data before stress testing. -Simon On Sun, 24 Feb 2013 13:33:06 -0800, Ronald F.

Why not? it is designed precisely for this. Like I said, whenever I used MySQL project community server built binaries, I never had it crash. Right now I'm thinking: 1. the port build of 5.0.95 does something incorrectly. 2. it's running out of memory (FreeBSD's kernel still does not report out of memory errors for processes if it kills them; there is no way to know if kernel killed a process due to memory limit, it does not log this) 3. it's hitting some kind of 5.0.95 bug Maybe I'm contacting wrong mailling list, I can't seem to get ahold of ISP/hosting guys on this list.

Re: FreeBSD 8.3 + MySQL 5.0.95
Possible but extremely unlikely, I always had issues whenever I tried to build MySQL server myself. The hardware where this is running has been very stable. I don't have any issues whatsoever making world, etc... There is no segfault which is what usually happens when you have memory issues. And why would MySQL community server run stable if it was somehow my hardware? Bottom line, if this was hardware issue, the server would have paniced long ago.

I'm wondering if this was resolved. I was looking at Dell R610s with Perc H700 and no solid information either. Found a few threads with people having issues with it, no solutions. These been out since early 2010, not cutting edge by any means. Is anyone using Dell R610/R620 with Perc H700/H710 reliably for some time? How can a hardcore server-OS like FreeBSD not have solid support for these popular server platforms :\ The more I run into these issues, the more I'm being forced to consider Linux; this is somewhat sad.

PHP 5.3 + ZendGuard Support
Hello, I found a couple of threads on the web about this but no solution. Am I the only one of few people who needs to run PHP scripts on FreeBSD machine that were encoded with Zend Guard technology? trying to run linux version of PHP, which has a ZendGuard loader made for it, or worse linux version of Apache which loads linux PHP module on FreeBSD is the last thing I want to do. It would be easier to switch to linux altogether, which I'm trying to avoid at all costs. Has anyone found a solution less of switching to linux for the purpose described above? Is there anything FreeBSD community can do to influence Zend Guard developers to release Zend Guard loader for FreeBSD? The company I work for has already at least a few clients who are forcing me to switch them to Linux due to lack of Zend Guard support under FreeBSD. Any thoughts, comments, would be appreciated.

This sort of idea will take years to catch on and will be a gradual process. In fact, it has already started in the (primitive) form of free open-source software. As for the corruption, at least in a organised contribution based system all data will be available for all to see, unlike the corruption we have today. Personal preference: if I can have check-able corruption or hidden corruption - I'd choose check-able every time. In fact, I think you'd find people would come to the forefront by actually boasting they are the most sound people with solid principles as a result of it being open for audit by anyone at anytime. And because it relies on the opinion of others it would be a better framework to build on (see eBay's feedback system as an introduction to a the value of mass-opinion). > We'll probably evolve semi-naturally to a reputation based economy as > advancing technology eliminates a lot of basic-needs scarcity, but that's > just speculation.

Yes, it would be absurd to introduce it over night, but not more absurb than the proposed "Bankor" currency headed our way. It's probably just about the same amount of admin, only with a website it would eliminate the need for turning trees into notes/paper. Also, the people who control the current money efforts conduct their affairs behind closed doors and avoid scrutiny. In an open system people will be able to not only see the workings (the maths behind it) and they will also be able to vote on it and change it (mass opinion outweighs the individual). > If you really want to do away with money, the best way to do it is to > advance the state of the art of automation technology.

Whilst I agree with you on most of this, I want to point out that the greatest portion of the available workforce are in front of Facebook drooling over Justin Beiber.

This can be quantified by creating a system whereby one's output is measured. It is not a credit system, rather a combination of reputation (feedback of others) and how much produce or time you effect. Try to think ebay without the money, and instead of leaving feedback after every transaction you only leave the feedback just once (how do you feel about the other person? good/bad). Also, in this contribution based system you can change your mind about the other party at any time, whether you are still in a relationship or not. And, instead of having "listings" which get replaced they get renewed with updated quantities, so, you see, you could list TIME or PRODUCT and as you make more available you update your contribution system. I am looking to recruit developers for such an idea, and I have a partial prototype of a new discussion-decision-resolution website system partially created at tibble.net (it's not even prototype worthy yet, but it's getting there). Specificially, I suggest you read the IDEA page which explains more about my radical (and not new but only slightly different) way of organising ourselves as a race. Quantifiable without currency through better organisation. Lose the belief in the money system and the Queen of England will no longer control you from the capital of the whole financial institution which is London.

The issue is not to remove CVS via rsync - just to remove it from the FTP collection where it doesn't belong. There is nothing which prevents mirror sites from providing access to the CVS repo via rsync, even if they get it via CVSup... If it's useful (IE, any of the primary mirrors requests it) we can probably rather easily set up rsync access via cvsup-master. That said, I think rsync access is likely not too interesting for most master mirrors as they likely provide access to the repo via CVSup already, so they have cvsup installed already. -- Simon L. B.

When I use the term "host", I'm referring to what many would call a "personal workstation" or "personal computer". If you have more than one person who has shell access to a computer, then you no longer have a host. You have a server. Sure, you may not think of it that way, but that's what it is. Servers are a completely different ballgame, and the decisions you make regarding protecting them have everything to do with who has access to what. The servers that I referenced in my post have one person with root access - me - and one user - the owners. No one else has access. So, it's a great deal easier for me to lock down the boxes than it is, for example, here at work, where *many* people have shell access and more than one have root access through sudo or even su. Sorry for bikeshedding here, since it's just a matter of terminology, but... "Hosts" used to be multi-user machines for a long time, and actually still are. Most RFCs, including newer ones, refer to "hosts" and mean "nodes" on the net. They don't care whether the hosts are workstations used by a single or few user(s), or big multi-user machines with hundreds of shell accounts. "Server" is merely the role a program assumes when it waits passively for requests from "clients". "Servers" run on "hosts", regardless of the number of users on those hosts (ranging from 0 to very high). Obviously, the security implications vary considerably if you have to host many user accounts, esp. on hosts used by mission critical server programs. ;) And of course, the bikeshed has to be painted... red! :) Regards, -cpghost.

However, VMware is a commercial company one of whose responsibilities is their bottom line. I have heard it said many, many times on this and other FreeBSD discussions that, if commercial companies hear from the end-users and system administrators, they would pay more attention to the group in question. Sadly, to date I have not seen any organized efforts to bring to VMware's attention the mob of BSD users that are out there, despite all the boastful talks. You also see that there are no (host) support for Open and Net (BSD). OSS virtualization efforts are another story, as there is no "bottom line" as such. But you still need the manpower and manhours to do complicated stuff like virtualization.

At any rate the PowerPC is officially a tier-2 platform so there isn't as much support available. What you can do, though, is to get basic information like device node names and such from NetBSD. I got NetBSD 3.0 running on my PowerMac G4/533 more than a year ago, and it ran just about flawlessly (it had some problems shutting down, i.e. froze, but other than that there was nothing I could complain about). Some of the setup information, particularly with regards to how OpenFirmware interacts with the boot loader and boot devices, may be relevant. At any rate, NetBSD has had considerable experience porting the OS to the PowerPC platform so it's worth a try.

Not sure if gmail replied to my original email properly or not! Basically, PHP refuses (instantly) to resolve dns with mod_php, but its fine connecting to an IP with the same piece of fsockopen code. And it will happily resolve the name if its run from the CLI. I've been told by cpanel that this is a FreeBSD bug but I'm having a hard time accepting that. cPanels third line support seem unable to fix it and are telling me to switch to CGI/suphp which the customer isn't happy with due to .htaccess stuff. I'm making an assumption that its a lack of FD's but my attempts to compile stuff with more seems to be failing, or my assumptions are wrong.

FreeBSD 6.2+PHP+700 sites = DNS Issues?
Hi, I have a customer with a cPanel install on 6.2, Apache/2.2.8 with PHP/5.2.5 (DSO) The server is having problem with dns resolution: Warning: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: hostname nor servname provided, or not known in /snip/support.php on line 2. This script works fine on the CLI but inside apache it fails. I've been told by cpanel support that this is a problem with FreeBSD more than anything and I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions on fixes, either sysctl tweaks or otherwise. cPanel have tried changing FD options on apache but to no avail. Upgrading to 6.3 is an option if that will fix it. Any thoughts?

Re: Double fault
Hi Bernt, A few observations: 1) This double fault apparently occurs fairly early in your boot process. Do you initialize anything late, like an external drive or some other hardware? 2) By your saying that you "usually" get either trap 9 or 12, I assume it happens frequently enough for you to notice a pattern. Do you have the kernel dump file and the backtrace? It would be a really good starting point to troubleshoot.

Software to print vouchers from large amount of txt data

The data in the text file would thus be translated in a certain number of similar paper vouchers. Does anyone have an idea?

Re: Bridging interfaces
That makes a lot of sense, but I suppose I still don't understand why this isn't working. The handbook section on routing is pretty basic and it seems to come down to setting net.inet.ip.forwarding to 1 if you want to route packets between interfaces on a dual-homed host.

Bridging interfaces
Hello, I seem to be having some trouble bridging interfaces in FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE. What I have are two interfaces rl0 - 192.168.2.2 sis0 - 192.168.1.2 and a bridge I've set up following the pages in the handbook. However frames don't seem to be routed from one interface to the other. The internet gateway for the networks lives on 192.168.1.1 and I am able to reach the internet from boxes on the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet but not from the other. Tracing the route from a box on the 192.168.2.0/24 subnet the connection times out on the freebsd box, orinoco.

A secure level of 3 setting was the problem. Once changed secure level to -1, everything worked. Thanks.

I tried to lower secure level, but still run into similar error: # sysctl kern.securelevel=-1 kern.securelevel: 3 sysctl: kern.securelevel: Operation not permitted Is there other way to reduce secure level to -1 without reboot the machine or drop into single user mode?

Tool to automate web application installation
Hi, I have just built an application that will be using Apache, PHP, MySQL. I am now looking for a tool that will enable me to automate the installation of the software, so human intervention will be kept as low as possible. Basically, the tool will have to install, with one single command (and probably a number of parameters), Apache, PHP, MySQL, as well as modify some config files (mainly php.ini) Does anyone have clues?

Yes, the FreeBSD Security Team and the FreeBSD BIND maintainer are aware of the issue and are working on fixing it in FreeBSD as soon as possible.
