No, I can not report a similar experience. The patch worked fine for me. Are you sure you _installed_ the kernel and modules after recompiling them? -- Glenn To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
RE: mmap busted in 4.3?
Will this patch sort out problems with audio extraction on my A7V-E or A7M266? I get read timeouts in FreeBSD, but it's happy in Win2K. If it's worth a try, can someone mail me with it? Cheers!

Re: 4.4-STABLE crashes - suspects new ata-driver over wd-driver
Here's another "me too". My box just froze when copying a large amount of big files over the network to my machine, causing heavy disc access and lots of interrupts. Curiously I just updated my box to 4.4-STABLE from 4.3-RELEASE and it hasn't occured before. Though in my case the box is quite old (dmesg attached) but is using a relatively new IDE disc. -Richard Copyright (c) 1992-2001 The FreeBSD Project.

Everyone's mileage varies - sometimes a lot. Is your machine inside a firewall? If so, then P(outside attack) goes down significantly for a good firewall configuration. If you are concerned about your co-workers attacking you, then you need to implement the same protections as for an outside attack -- and IMHO to go job-junting. My FreeBSD machine here at work has tripwire installed, and enough password to keep the honest people out. I certainly don't worry about kernel security levels. -- Mike Andrews [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tired old sysadmin since 1964 To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
naive security question
I have a recently cvsupped SMP 4.4-stable running great. ipfilter is: - blocking (all?) spoofs and smurfs - blocking all packets on all ports except: - packets part of inside-initiated tcp/udp/icmp connections - tcp SYN packets on port 22 (ssh) The setup is taken directly from the ipf-howto. So all unwanted packets are dropped except for SYN/22 packets. This leaves me open to SYN flooding and username/password guessing. After some google research, it appears FreeBSD is pretty good at combating the flooding problem. As for username/password guessing, there's not much I can do about that other than picking a 'good' password and checking the logs. Oh and there could be an exploit in OpenSSH. My naive view is that this setup looks -pretty good-. My question is: how confident should I be? Is it really worthwhile for me to spend time setting up tripwire, kernel levels, etc? How many people are that really that paranoid (paranoia being a good thing)? I am a software developer (this box is at work), so the more time I spend developing software the better. Thanks.

linux module broken also with patch on fxp interfaces
Ups ... I just tested the patch on the DELL P4 (with the 3Com905C xl0 NIC) and with the applied patch, the Linuxulator offers the right ID with lmutil lmhostid for the FLEXlm authentication server. The same patch on the same cvsupdated FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE source (last cvsupdate: today, 3 hours ago from now) has no effect on machines equipted with the fxp0 NIC (all other machines do have Intel EtherExpress 10/100 Pro NICs).
