Hello freebsd-stable! Are there any limits for size/quantity of partitions at freebsd slice? Best regards, Sergey mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ UIN: 49432691 http://lw.narod.ru To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
Re: disk partition limits
Are there any limits for size/quantity of partitions at freebsd slice? 4 slices per disk, 8 partitions per slice (by convention, partition "c" covers the whole disk so usually only 7 usable partitions). AFAIK FreeBSD cannot use the so-called "extended partitions" (i.e. slices-within-slices). If this is too restrictive for your purposes, use vinum to chop up a large partition into lots of little ones.

The idea here is that if someone does a hasty commit, and I suffer for it, I can easily get back to where I was. Except that (IIUC) next time you cvsup-d the repository, your local tag would be deleted. I suppose I could tag -b "WORKS" the first time, cvs update -r "WORKS" to switch to my new branch, then tag the branch and merge out from my local repository's "mainline" whenever I resync it.

They now limited the internal network to 33k between users. Compared to before it's like putting us on dialups. When you signed on, didn't you agree to pay per month for a given service level? If I understand you correctly, @home has now changed the terms of the agreement. We need competition for cable service in a big, big way. :-( I don't have the option for DSL where I live (yet), and my cable "ISP" (I have to put that in quotes, because they couldn't find their bungholes with both hands and a roadmap) guarantees 1500K down and 500K up for what I'm paying, BUT they block all the ports below 1024. :-( I can hack around that, given a friendly site outside their firewall who's willing to divert packets for me, but it's still a PITA.

Symbolic links do not have 'flags' so there is no reason why rm -f /sys (as root) should fail. Is /sys still is a symbolic link on your system?

telnet connection refused from IP outside subnet

Re: telnet connection refused from IP outside subnet
In that case it should log failure using the auth service...Try creating the file /var/log/auth.log and adding a line into /etc/syslog.conf: Actualy, I don't have 'login failers'. I just can't connect! "Connection refused", not login failer! I do not get login prompt at all! I even do not get any message from telnet-client! Just 'connection refused'. Currently I use ssh to log-in. I did what you suggest in /etc/syslog.conf. ssh logins are logged now, etc. But nothing else! On your server use the host command. Type "host your IP" where your IP ... 'host' is ok in both directions (host name and host ip gives the same name/IP). Can I assume resolving is ok ? If i could force things to be logged somehow :-) I can send my /etc/syslog.conf if it will be of help ? --- Plamen D.
