Re: Data Recovery
I hope that you have remounted this filesystem read-only .. or else you might not be able to recover anything. That might be one of the problems you are running into. Sleuthkit allows you to search inodes and fragment ranges of a device for particular file and directory names.. then images that inode or fragment range into a single image file elsewhere on the system. Foremost will then open that image file and extract files based on their header and footer information, but.. if you do not include footer information you might get truncated file recovery. Also.. as stated before.. if there have been multiple writes to the file system.. you probably wont get the file back at all. Hope this helps..

My FreeBSD box has two IP addresses assigned to it, one from the first subnet and one from the second subnet. I want to use round-robin DNS to direct half my web traffic to the first IP and half to the second IP. As I said to John in a private e-mail earlier this morning, I have a Windows 2000 box that is doing exactly this with these two subnets right now. I know it "can" be done. I have a feeling that the FreeBSD TCP stack lacks the capability. By the way, this also works with Cisco hardware. I have used Cisco equipment in this same configuration in the past. I think they way it SHOULD work is that you should be able to give a FreeBSD box multiple default gateways. When FreeBSD gets a packet to an IP on the first subnet, it should use the default gateway that is also on that subnet. When FreeBSD gets a packet to an IP on the second subnet, it should use the second default gateway. This seems to be the logic that Windows (and Cisco) uses.

NOTE: i have an ADSL account, which mean i'm using a router to connect to the internet, and i'm redirection all ports from the external connections to my machine ip, so that i'm able to open a server or to connect to my machine from anywhere. thanks ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Re: Help Please ... Question on cvsupit
http://www.section6.net/help/cvsup.php Hope this helps... T - Original Message - From: "Andrew Batson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, January 24, 2005 8:14 PM Subject: Help Please ... Question on cvsupit Hello, I have been trying for the last few days to figure out how to update the ports collection via the cvsup process. I have two different books on FreeBSD version 5.x and both say to use this "cvsupit" program but I cannot find it any where. I have FreeBSD release 5.3 install and created a user account that I can "su" in. I would like to be able to update the ports collections and FreeBSD source so that I can custom compile various ports and FreeBSD. Does any one have any idea where the "cvsupit" program is. I have tired installing "cvsup-16.1h" and "cvsup-without-gui" via both pkg_add, sysinstall, and the ports make/install process but I still cannot find this "cvsupit" program. Any ideas on what I am doing wrong? I am still learning FreeBSD so I probably missing something simple some where?
