Re: tools in openbsd
I have been around with a doubt in my mind. While i see many good tools in the net, i could not figure it out why they cannot be come default in openbsd dist. In general this page explains the story in general about particular software products: http://www.openbsd.com/faq/faq1.html#HowAbout For instance, i am very confortable with tools like qmail and djbdns. As for these two programs in particular, they're both mentioned specifically on that FAQ page because of their restrictive licensing. I ask because i love programming and i am very confident about my work. Certainly looking through the ports tree for the specific apps you have in mind is a good place to start. If you want to see a particular app included in OpenBSD, licensing permitting, the best place to start contributing in most cases is by making a port of that application, submit it to the ports@ list and see what the response is. If you have a look at undeadly.org, there's a slide presentation there now that shows how quickly the ports tree has / is growing. Lastly, it would probably serve you well to have a closer look through the FAQs to see if there are other similar things you might have in mind that might be addressed there.

OpenBSD/i386 on IBM BladeCenter HS20 eServer install CD error
Hi all, When I try to boot with install CD (cd38.iso), it hangs with 'pckbc_start: send error' (after wscons0)... GigaEthernet adapter are successfully detected and configured (bge0/1) and SCSI controler too (sd0/1). There is an error message at the very first kernel loading stage that I can't read (too fast) about a memory trouble (CANNOT LOAD MEMORY SEGMENT...). I have to press enter just before the kernel load (saying booting /bsd.rd |\-/...) else it doesn't start... I've try with a PS/2 keyboard and an USB keyboard, all failed... Is that a keyboard trouble (bad luck !) or something else ? I could be very fun if it can work ! (a BladeCenter full of OpenBSD, slurp :) Best regards, Bruno.

Re: Postfix SMTP Authentication using auxprop ldapdb plugin from OpenLDAP
Thanks for the idea, but I need to stick with Postfix in this case. I am also trying to avoid having to run any extra authentication daemons. Hi Don, I'm about to upgrade an installation with an installation of cyrus-sasl2, openldap, ldapdp and courier-imap 4.0.x from 3.6 - 3.8 this weekend. I'd definitely forget using about using cyrus-sasl2 2.1.20 from the ports - you really need to be using the lastest stable version.

This requires a custom kernel, but works very well - for me at least. And if the point is disaster recovery, a RAID-1 is as good as ccd if you keep a spare custom kernel somewhere. I seem to recall that the kernel will not autoconfigure ccd. That means you can't put / on it, without monkeying around at least. However, you could put / on a RAID-1, and then use ccd for the rest (if truly paranoid, turn most of /etc, /opt, /dev and so on into symlinks to a ccd mount...) Joachim

Markus Wernig wrote: Hi misc Is anybody aware of a document that describes how to ccd all slices (including /) after installation? You are wanting to RETROFIT ccd mirroring on a disk that was set up without it? No. Not going to happen easily. ccd won't do root, though you could use the ALTROOT system to nightly duplicate root for you. How often do you change the data on the root partition? Hint: you don't need to mirror root. You do need to make sure your second drive has a bootable and pretty-current root, however. That's what ALTROOT does for you. You *might* be able to do a ccd setup on the second drive, copy your primary drive to it, boot off the new secondary drive, rebuild the first drive for ccd config, then duplicate.

But I'm really not quite sure. you will need to /practice/ on a non-production system. I don't care what RAID solution you use. This is a must. The goal is to bring the box back online as fast as possible after a disk crash and replacement, and to be then able to rebuild the raidset online (dd is fine). rebuilding with dd is done OFF LINE. You can't duplicate a live file system. You also want to make sure your ccd'd partitions are as small as you can get away with, yes, with most of your disk unused. That's to get rebuild time down as low as possible. Are you working with a system with so much dynamic data that you can't use a nightly (or weekly) dump/restore to a second drive? This can be easily done after initial install. You can't easily retrofit S/W RAID into an already configured system. Nick.

quirk with pf on 3.8 vs 3.7

Appears to me that when the from is specified as a network
(192.168.1.0/24) the result is 3 lines of nat rules, what I would
expect. What I don't understand is why if I specify $int_if:network
(which I think is identical to my saying 192.168.1.0/24) there are
two lines of output for every proto. Anyone know why? Normal?
From an OpenBSD 3.7 box
nat on $WAN_INTERFACE inet proto { tcp, udp, icmp } from \
$LAN_INTERFACE:network to any - $WAN_ADDRESS_1
# pfctl -s nat
nat on sis0 inet proto tcp from 192.168.1.0/24 to any - 1.2.2.2

nat on sis0 inet proto icmp from 192.168.1.0/24 to any - 1.2.2.2
I think the behavior of a 3.8 pf box is the same, but the output is

Re: PF Queue problem
I don't know valknut (or the DirectConnect protocol), but if it is similiar to other p2p filesharing protocols, then you do also uploads on your outbound connection, e.g. if you connect to another host, and this host happens to want something from you, you will upload it over your outbound connection. at least this case is not covered by the rules you posted. --knitti

Greets Started to install 3.8 on my laptop (Compaq Presario 2100(2133AP)) this morning, but ran into a small issue. Make the floppy38.fs, boot off it fine, starts doing all its kernel driver loading stuff, but then stops at -- snip -- fdc0 at isa0 port 0x3f0/6 irq 6 drq 2 pcic0 at isa0 port 0x3e0/6 iomem 0xd/16384 pcic0 controller 0: Intel 82365L rev 2 has sockets A and B pcmcia0 at pcic0 controller 0 socket 0 pcmcia1 at pcic0 controller 0 socket 1 -- end -- And thats about it. Keyboard is non functional for cttl-alt-del, caps-lock doesn't flick the light on-off. Just stopped. Have had 3.7 running on this laptop before, but was having some issues with getting X.org running.

Issues getting Xorg running
Greets Have had X running under linux for many moons now and so figure I would not have any problems under openbsd. However: I install all the required base packages, boot and login as root. I run xorgcfg, and my screen blinks and it fails with Caught signal 11. Server aborting. So I run xorgconfig instead to set everything up in text mode. Setup all the values as per many times before (under linux), and then run startx. screen blinks, Caught signal 11. Server aborting. Have checked the logs, nothing helpful, googled the inet, nothing helpful. Have checked that machdep.allowaperture=2 is set in sysctl.conf, and am running kernel GENERIC#138 i386, so option APERTURE is set according to the FAQ. Did this under 3.7 as well.

Possible bug in ksh tab completion
I noticed that, using ksh, if you try to tab-complete any filename that has a '[' in it while there are more than one file in the directory will fail. Simple example: $ mkdir test $ cd test $ touch [a] [b] $ pico \[a at the last line, if you type tab, the system beeps and nothing else happens. It is not such a big deal for files with small names like the ones in the example but can get annoying if you have to type in verbatim a 60-caracter filename. So this leads to my question. Is it a design feature, a POSIX requierment, or simply something that has gone unnoticed? -- They allowed us to set up a separate division almost, that is physically, geographically, psychologically and spiritually different from what Bill himself calls the Borg - Peter Moore, V.P. in charge of Xbox 360 marketing at Microsoft.
Drives connected to pcscp0 disappeared.
Hi, I just noticed that the cd and dvd drives connected to my Tekram DC-390 host adapter aren't detected since a few days. What follows are the dmesg of my current system and a diff against a dmesg some months ago.

I noticed that, using ksh, if you try to tab-complete any filename

So this leads to my question. Is it a design feature, a POSIX
requierment, or simply something that has gone unnoticed?
ksh would need some kind of incremental parser for both parsing
scripts as well for doing tab-completion. Unfortunately, using a
common parser for normal use (parse a script) and for special
interactive use (completion) isn't trivial. The edit implementations
(both emacs and vi) use lots of ad-hoc stuff.
I'd the idea of using a common parser implemented with yacc(1), but
Otto pointed out that this wouldn't help much but also bloat ksh.
So, for now, completion won't work for some pathological cases ('{',
'@', and other unusual characters).
Fixing this would be more than one or two days of work. But have a
look at att ksh -- it even sucks more if it comes to completion.

Intel 82801 sound not working on OpenBSD 3.8
Hello, I have just installed OpenBSD 3.8 on my laptop, which has an Intel 82801 sound chip. I believe that the hardware is detected fine (see attached dmesg output), but I can't get sound to play. I have tried both playing an mp3 (via mpg321) and cat somefile /dev/audio with no luck. I am not exactly sure that the problem is related to the audio driver, since both commands change play.open=1 and play.active=1 from 0 in the output of audioctl -a. I have set output.master.mute=off and output.headphone.mute=off through mixerctl, but this has not resulted in sound through either speakers or headphones. I have tried googling for this situation with little success. Any insights you all could offer would be appreciated.

Motherboard recommendations? Pentium IV, 2GB+ RAM?
Hey folks, I've been pouring over the archives for a couple of days now, looking for recommendations for a Pentium IV motherboard for a new server I'm building. I've found a lot of AMD and AMD64 posts, but hardly any P4s. I would really appreciate any suggestions from any of you that own motherboards with the following specs: Needed: * 1+ PCI-X slot, 64-bit 133MHz (one required) * Intel Pentium IV, don't care what socket * Minimum 2GB RAM capacity * PC3200 RAM, if possible (already have 1GB stick just sitting around) Wanted: * Decent gigabit NIC built in, if possible (ie, not %[EMAIL PROTECTED] Broadcom) * 4GB RAM capacity would be nice Don't need: * SCSI/SATA on board, not necessary, system will have LSI 21320B U320 in PCI-X slot (uses 53C1030 chipset, should be supported?) * Sound * Video (can pop in crap PCI video card, don't need graphics) This server will be running PHP-based webmail with local IMAP server, SpamAssassin + PostgreSQL (for Bayes), and webhosting via Apache for a handful of sites. Very few webmail users, but some pretty large mail stores that drive Courier into the ground (open to suggestions for different IMAP servers). I'd love to hear from folks that have had good (or even bad) experiences with motherboards. This machine will be running -STABLE. Thanks a bunch!

pcmcia aironet card works in 3.7 but not 3.8?
I have an old laptop where I use a Cisco aironet 350 pcmcia card for wireless access. This network card worked fine on this same laptop in 3.7 but now when I try to upgrade or give a fresh install to 3.8 the card no longer works after the installation. During the initial installation, the card is detected properly and can receive an IP address via DHCP. I can then install 3.8 via ftp over this wireless card. Upon the first reboot, the card appears to be detected properly in the dmesg, but I get an error message highlighted in blue that states an0: failed to enable MAC. Has something changed in the aironet drivers, or some other area that might cause this? Perhaps there is some difference between the bsd.rd kernel and the stock bsd kernel that might affect this? This is all on happening on the generic 3.8 kernel. I cannot supply a dmesg yet because I have no way to get it off the system at the moment (need to go grab a floppy drive or serial cable). The best info I can give for the time being is that the laptop is a Dell Latitude CPi (400mhz, 128mb ram, 6 G hard drive to give you a feel for it's age). Any words of wisdom? Matt

Help with bridging firewall failover w/ CARP, OpenBSD 3.7
I can't get failover of a bridging firewall to work using CARP and OpenBSD 3.7. All the documentation + googling I've done leads me to believe it *should* work. I think. But with everything setup all I get is a flood of ARP requests that paralyze the network and the firewalls. The setup: Two computers, each with 4 Ethernet ports: fxp0 -- WAN -- no IP address rl0 -- LAN -- no IP address rl1 -- SSH -- public IP address rl2 -- pfsync -- directly connected to other computers, IP's are 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2. fxp0, rl0, rl1 all work fine. bridgename.bridge0 works fine, the bridges work great on each computer individually), tcpdump indicates that pfsync (hostname.pfsync0) works fine too. In addition to settings needed for bridging, net.inet.carp.preempt=1 and net.inet.carp.log=1 are set. Here are my carp settings for the primary firewall: hostname.carp0: up vhid 1 carpdev fxp0 pass pass advbase 3 hostname.carp1: up vhid 2 carpdev rl0 pass pass advbase 3 and for the secondary: hostname.carp0: up vhid 1 carpdev fxp0 pass pass advbase 3 advskew 100 hostname.carp1: up vhid 2 carpdev rl0 pass pass advbase 3 advskew 100 I tried adding a publicly-routable IP address to carp0 and carp1, but I got a couldn't set this IP address error from those two interfaces when I ran netstart. Or should I use a non-routable IP here? pf.conf consists of just: set loginterface fxp0 pass all keep state Network looks like: firewall A - T1 -- crappy 8-port unmanaged switch --| | --- unmanaged switch firewall B - Any help would be much appreciated!

So this leads to my question. Is it a design feature, a POSIX
requierment, or simply something that has gone unnoticed?
ksh would need some kind of incremental parser for both parsing
scripts as well for doing tab-completion. Unfortunately, using a
common parser for normal use (parse a script) and for special
interactive use (completion) isn't trivial. The edit implementations
(both emacs and vi) use lots of ad-hoc stuff.
I'd the idea of using a common parser implemented with yacc(1), but
Otto pointed out that this wouldn't help much but also bloat ksh.
So, for now, completion won't work for some pathological cases ('{',
'@', and other unusual characters).
I reported it precisely because the characters you mentionned (and all
other 'special' chars i know) are working perfectly. '[' and ']' are
the only chars I have problems with even if they are properly escaped.
Fixing this would be more than one or two days of work. But have a
look at att ksh -- it even sucks more if it comes to completion.
Now if you still think it would take more than one or two days, I
think I'll try to code myself a little interactive-only shell.

Re: Motherboard recommendations? Pentium IV, 2GB+ RAM?
Well, that's because if you do use AMD64 instead of P4, you will get a box a hell of a lot faster and the price would be the same to you and believe me when I say that! You are MUCH better with AMD64 for a server then P4. Flame me if you like, but you will hardly find anyone here telling you to go use Intel instead of AMD64, specially if you have the choice from now and you can built what you want! You would be much better off with AMD64, but that's just me! I haven't had good luck with AMD64 so far. The server I built not a year ago has had more kernel panics and funky-ass behavior than any system I've built since the RedHat 6.2 days. AMD64 is likely a damned good processor, but it's kind of soured on me. If people have a known solid motherboard + AMD64 combination they'd like to recommend that has a PCI-X 64-bit 133MHz slot in it, I'm certainly willing to consider it. But this server is my lifeline, my personal webserver and mailserver (and a few domains for friends), so I'd rather have a rock-solid system to use and then bring the AMD64 system back in-house to install 3.8 on and debug the problems.

Raid and the spare-disk - Forcing the spare disk into sleep-mode?
Hello everybody, I would like to know if the spare-disk (specified in the raid.conf of raidctl) gets powered off until it's needed. As far as I understood the manpage the spare-disk is used to rebuild the raid if a HDD fails. And example what happened to a company I know: A company I know had 2 Servers, redundant, for working. As the mainserver crashed (HDDs) they used the secondary Server. This crashed also 34 Minutes later. The company bought the Servers at the same time and they where running all the time. In this case they had no Spare-Disks. I ask if the spare-disk gets powered off because the spare-disk could crash too (lifecricle). Normaly you buy a Server and the disks and also the (maybe then used) spare disk at the same time. So the Disks run exactly the same time and this could be a risk (for the spare disk). So if this option isn't supported yet (as I said I found nothing at the manpage) would it make sense to support it (forcing a HDD to suspend until it's needed (sleep mode))? Kind regards, Sebastian

'adjusting' is a good choice, since a search on list archives using that as a keyword will find plenty of explanation... ntpd(8) *may* benefit from a few explanatory words, although that's debatable, since adjtime(2) is referenced and explains things well enough. I agree that it's easy enough to do a search, and discover what ntpd is actually doing. That was actually accomplished within the first 2-3 responses to my OP - that was the easy part :) I now understand what the author *intended* in the log message. In fact, I worry I shall never forget this lesson - to the point that I may begin doubting others when they make simple and unambiguous statements. For example: Wife: Wash the car. Me: Uh, do you mean the *entire* car, or just the front bumper? Broker: This year's premium is increasing by $1,000. Me: Uh, do you mean it's going up by $1 this year, and each year thereafter until the 1000th year? Doctor: You're 12 pounds overweight. Me: Uh, do you mean as of today, or sometime before I die? Guard: Leave the building Me: Uh, do you mean take one step toward the door, and wait for further instructions, or do you mean go to the front door, and exit? Discovering the intended meaning of the ntpd log message was easy enough. The point that seems to be causing most of the name-calling and controversy is this: If a message or instruction is ambiguous or vague or contains unfamiliar words or concepts, then I would expect to have to do a little research to reach an understanding of its meaning. However if a statement is clear and concise, and contains no new words or concepts then I tend to take it at face value, and I don't do any research. I don't think I am alone in this practice (although...). There also seem to be quite a few (several of them have written me off-list) who maintain that the phrase in the log message is either: a) a clear and correct description of ntpd's adjustment, or b) ambiguous or fuzzy enough to warrant research to find out what it really means. I maintain that the message adjusting clock by XXs is neither of the above. I'll also say that I don't consider myself to be an authority on the English language (I don't think you have to be to divine the meaning of the phrase in question). But since there seems to be no end to the controversy, insults and name-calling in this forum, and I'm getting really tired of the discussion, I propose to settle the matter as follows: 1. I will place a cashier's check in the amount of $2,000 in escrow with a trusted third party TBD; I will call this the OpenBSD Good Grammar Prize. The Prize will in effect be my wager that the subject ntpd log message is clearly inaccurate. 2. Anyone who wishes to wager to the contrary may likewise place a cashier's check in the amount of $2,000 (US) with the same trusted third party. 3. Final judgement as to the meaning of the ntpd log message will be vested with a panel of judges. Qualifications and selection criteria for the judges is TBD, but all judges will be drawn from the faculty of the English department at an accredited university in the US. 4. Distribution of the wagers will be made following the judge's final decision. Distribution will be as follows: a) If the judges agree with my interpretation, my $2,000 check is returned to me. The other wager's $2,000 is donated to the OpenBSD project on the condition that the log message be changed to TBD. (That's why it's called The OpenBSD Good Grammar Prize). If the OpenBSD team declines to make the change, then the other wager's $2,000 will be donated to the Free Software Foundation. b) If the judges disagree with my interpretation, my $2,000 check will be sent to either the other wager, the OpenBSD project, or any other organization that he designates. The other wager's check will be returned to him. In any case, the best I can do is break even. The other wager can capture the cash for himself, donate it to OpenBSD, donate it to the American Literacy Council, or whatever... 5. The judges will need some written guidance on how to conduct their evaluation. Whoever wishes to wager should also submit their proposed criteria. I've drafted some instructions to the judges below that can be used as a point of departure. So let's get to it, ladies and gentlemen... are there any players?

My wife is an English Major, so I eventually had to ask her... and she feels the message is correct. I did have to explain it to her in detail though so I guess initial confusion is understandable. Prolonged confusion, however, is not.

Re: Motherboard recommendations? Pentium IV, 2GB+ RAM?
For AMD64: Tyan Motherboards seams to be pretty solid. I had also no luck with ASUS, they simply just suck. For INTEL: Intel Motherboards There's not that much choice (for me) at the market anymore. Most vendors build crappy boards to provide the latest shit. Example: Asus K7V880 (yes socket A, I know): 3 IDE HDDs, 1 SATA HDD - Booting takes about 1 Minute, I have always select the HDD wich should be bootet manualy. Even my dual Opteron boots faster! :-) And this crappy Board/Bios wont notice my Duron 1800. Duron 1800 == 133 FSB The board detects just an FSB of about 100 (1350Mhz). Even an AsRock did a better Job (same CPU and HDDs and bla..). And before the Opteron I had another ASUS Board with a AMD64 socket 745 (hopefully not wrong). And A8V800 wich sucked too. Long time ago Asus made good Boards, now even an Asrock is more stable. Tyan, INTEL... 2 Vendors. Not that much Choice but hey, they work! Kind regards, Sebastian -- p.s. Hopefully Genesi changes their mind because I'm looking for a PPC-base Computer. I just told them that I'm not statisfied with their actions and hey, they realy answered.
