first, autospawning does not work in esound-0.2.38. I don't know if
that's the version you are using, but that could be part of the problem.
I'm pretty sure I had mpd playing through esd at one point.
let's see. add a group, _esd. add myself and _mpd to that
group. start esd as myself, chgrp _esd ~/.esd_auth, chmod g+rw
~/.esd_auth. echo "default_driver=esd" > /etc/libao.conf.
sudo mpd. starts fine, but oh, no workie.
ok, make /var/esd. make that _mpd's home, and link from there an
.esd_auth to my .esd_auth. that seems to work.

I could probably hack around with where mpd is running from or twist
permissions to get it to talk to esd's socket in /var/empty, but that
seems wrong.. and anyway, every other program that would want to talk
to esd would need similar hacks.
If I change esd.conf to use -tcp or start esd with -tcp by hand then
this is all that mpd reports when I try to play a file (gathered with

I'm considering buying one as web and > mail server but this could be a bit disturbing. AFAIK it's the EFI (Intel Macs) which needs the resistor (as replacement for a monitor) to switch to the legacy BIOS mode (or so) and boot with a DOS partition. The native EFI boot with a HFS+ partition and Mac OS X doesn't need that. Open Firmware (PPC Macs) doesn't have such problems either. Tas.
DHCP failing to find interface after 20 Interfaces
Hi, Sorry but I run into another block. This time it's dhcpd that is having the issue. I hope Stuart can find an answer as fast as he did last time. This is the issue. If I have 20 or less interfaces configured then dhcpd starts up as expected. Dhcpd listens to the carp interface carp1:. The startup command is "/usr/sbin/dhcpd carp1". If I have 20 interfaces the dhcpd finds the carp1 interface and it starts up. If I add an interface so there is 21 interfaces the dhcpd will not startup because it can not find carp1. If I do ifconfig -a it lists the interfaces in some kind of order. It seems that it uses this order and it can only see the first 20 in the list. The carp interfaces are always at the bottom of the list. Thanks, Carl Dhcpd: I build this from source because I needed USE_SOCKETS enabled. It's version 3.0.7. It is running in using dhcp-failover between to servers. # uname -a OpenBSD xxx.xxx.xxx 4.1 GENERIC.MP#1152 amd64 # ifconfig -a lo0: flags=8049 mtu 33192 groups: lo inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff00 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x7 bge0: flags=8943 mtu 1500 lladdr 00:09:3d:11:99:02 groups: egress media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT full-duplex) status: active inet 65.44.125.14 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 65.44.125.255 inet6 fe80::209:3dff:fe11:9902%bge0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 bge1: flags=8943 mtu 1500 lladdr 00:09:3d:11:99:03 media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT full-duplex) status: active inet 159.212.73.14 netmask 0xff80 broadcast 159.212.73.127 inet6 fe80::209:3dff:fe11:9903%bge1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 em0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 lladdr 00:04:23:ae:1a:14 media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT full-duplex) status: active inet 192.168.63.56 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.63.255 inet6 fe80::204:23ff:feae:1a14%em0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3 em1: flags=8802 mtu 1500 lladdr 00:04:23:ae:1a:15 media: Ethernet autoselect (none) status: no carrier pflog0: flags=141 mtu 33192 enc0: flags=0<> mtu 1536 pfsync0: flags=0<> mtu 1460 pfsync: syncdev: em0 syncpeer: 192.168.63.57 maxupd: 128 groups: carp pfsync gre1: flags=b011 mtu 1476 groups: gre physical address inet 159.212.73.16 --> 159.212.48.152 inet6 fe80::209:3dff:fe11:9902%gre1 -> prefixlen 64 scopeid 0xb inet 192.168.0.1 --> 192.168.1.1 netmask 0x gre126: flags=b011 mtu 1476 groups: gre physical address inet 159.212.73.16 --> 159.212.48.111 inet6 fe80::209:3dff:fe11:9902%gre126 -> prefixlen 64 scopeid 0xc inet 192.168.0.126 --> 192.168.1.126 netmask 0x gre132: flags=b011 mtu 1476 groups: gre physical address inet 159.212.73.16 --> 10.140.253.251 inet6 fe80::209:3dff:fe11:9902%gre132 -> prefixlen 64 scopeid 0xf inet 192.168.0.132 --> 192.168.1.132 netmask 0x gre146: flags=b011 mtu 1476 groups: gre physical address inet 159.212.73.16 --> 159.212.187.7 inet6 fe80::209:3dff:fe11:9902%gre146 -> prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x10 inet 192.168.0.146 --> 192.168.1.146 netmask 0x gre112: flags=b011 mtu 1476 groups: gre physical address inet 159.212.73.16 --> 10.192.15.15 inet6 fe80::209:3dff:fe11:9902%gre112 -> prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x11 inet 192.168.0.112 --> 192.168.1.112 netmask 0x gre110: flags=b011 mtu 1476 groups: gre physical address inet 159.212.73.16 --> 10.108.8.7 inet6 fe80::209:3dff:fe11:9902%gre110 -> prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x12 inet 192.168.0.110 --> 192.168.1.110 netmask 0x gre114: flags=b011 mtu 1476 groups: gre physical address inet 159.212.73.16 --> 10.108.16.60 inet6 fe80::209:3dff:fe11:9902%gre114 -> prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x13 inet 192.168.0.114 --> 192.168.1.114 netmask 0x gre118: flags=b011 mtu 1476 groups: gre physical address inet 159.212.73.16 --> 10.108.24.45 inet6 fe80::209:3dff:fe11:9902%gre118 -> prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x14 inet 192.168.0.118 --> 192.168.1.118 netmask 0x gre140: flags=b011 mtu 1476 groups: gre physical address inet 159.212.73.16 --> 10.108.32.61 inet6 fe80::209:3dff:fe11:9902%gre140 -> prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x15 inet 192.168.0.140 --> 192.168.1.140 netmask 0x gre142: flags=b011 mtu 1476 groups: gre physical address inet 159.212.73.16 --> 10.108.40.10 inet6 fe80::209:3dff:fe11:9902%gre142 -> prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x16 inet 192.168.0.142 --> 192.168.1.142 netmask 0x carp1: flags=8843 mtu 1500 lladdr 00:00:5e:00:01:01 carp: MASTER carpdev bge0 vhid 1 advbase 1 advskew 20 groups: carp inet6 fe80::200:5eff:fe00:101%carp1 prefixlen 64 sc
Re: The correct way to use bsd.rd
The RAMDISK_CD kernel bsd in /usr/src/sys/arch/`machine`/compile/RAMDISK_CD is not the same as bsd.rd as you have found out it has an empty ramdisk, it the initial stage, to get a bsd.rd you need to build a release after building the userland. Details for building a release are in the FAQ's and man pages. Building the release will use the RAMDISK_CD to build the kernel in bsd, reserving space for the ramdisk, and then the make release process adds the ramdisk (miniroot) into this creating the bsd.rd. You will find what the build release does under /usr/src/distrib/ramdisk The install / update shells are in /usr/src/distrib/miniroot The resulting bsd.rd created by the release is placed into $DESTDIR/snapshot, and then into the release directory $RELEASEDIR. The RAMDISK - is for the floppynn.fs, RAMDISKB, RAMDISKC for floppynnB.fs, and floppynnC.fs. It all works for building a release, but as pointed out never needed for following current. I build a release so I have an install with all the patches for stable, I can use on a number of machines which use stable, rather than applying the patches on each. If what your are asking is can you just build bsd.rd without building the full release - possibly, maybe setting DESTDIR, RELEASEDIR and a make in /usr/src/distrib/ramdisk might work, really your on your own if your trying to do that.

The global timeout is a "connection timeout" which is used by the health checks but also by the initial connect/accept of the relays in TCP and SSL mode. This means that this timeout will be used for the time to establish the stateful TCP or SSL connection. The established connection will switch to the per-relay "session timeout" which defaults to 600s (10min) for idle TCP/SSL sessions.

Mac minis run OpenBSD just fine. Mine are running for two years
permanently now without any problems. Just a few things:
- Only one sensor under OpenBSD (CPU temperature), that's more than
enough though, as they only get too hot if the fan breaks, and the
sensor can detect that just fine
- You need a little tweak in /etc/rc.securelevel to make them start
automagically after a power failture:
http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=120631459418290&w=2
- They need a resistor either in a dongle or build-in to make them
start without a monitor attached.

Re: relayd http-https-redirects with sticky-address
I can relate to that, having load balancers fix"ing" backend services.
If you have the time, you will probably find "pound reverse proxy"
http://www.apsis.ch/pound/ to be a nice alternative to try out in your lab.
I have pound on openbsd for several years and can recommend it for http
-> https redirects, SSL termination and back-end load balancing with
health checks (not to mention the dynamic scaling ) and and weighted
priority between backend nodes.
Check it out

note that this will match any traffic in the 80 - 443 port range, make
sure that you add additional pf rules to filter any other ports except
80 and 443. but it works with Source Tracking and should allow your
clients to move between http and https on the same server. another
limitation is that it only runs checks on one of the ports.
ugh, this looks ugly ;)
Instead of going this route I would say: find the source of why the
visitor should access the same host, and solve that.
no, it is not ugly. it is a reasonable solution for a very common
case. you can easilly block other incoming connections with
restrictive pf rules. but please face reality - not everyone is in
control of their backend web servers since it is VERY common that the
loadbalancers (networking group) are handled by a different group than
the backend webservers (servers group). and it is also very common
that you run your fancy nice openbsd box in front of some other
"stuff". indeed, it is very common for loadbalancers and firewalls to
"fix" arbitrary systems attached to the network.
We use relayd in front of 6 servers, doing http and https.
It doesn't matter what backend box the user go. Hell, they can even go
to another box on a reload.
This of course means we are storing sessions etc on shared storage (NFS
in our case, and the new sharedance port looks like an alternative for
that)
of course this is a better solution if you're in control of the
backend servers. some people also use solutions like a clustered
database backend (eg. mysql), proprietary solutions like zend cache,

I just noticed that there is a libao-esd package. I installed that and
now mpd does indeed try to spawn an esd instance. However, there are
problems:
-since mpd seems to chroot itself into /var/empty it needs write
access there to put a .esd_auth file (but /var/empty has to be 755
root:wheel or sshd won't let me log in). I temporarily switched the
permissions and then back; once it had created the .esd_auth file it
ran fine until I rebooted.
-even once esd is running, it doesn't allow other applications through
it at the same time (thus negating the point of having a sound server)
Sooo I'm just wondering how you went about this.

Hi, I'm curious if anyone here has cobbled together a box that: - plugs into ethernet - plugs into stereo - plays music on stereo from iTunes library on home subnet - has gui that you can read from 15 feet away, allows you to navigate the iTunes library, and that you can control with an infrared remote (an old TV remote?) I've got an old Toshiba laptop with a IDE-to-CF drive, an IR port, enough CPU and RAM, and a sound card that I hope is good enough. How hard would this be to pull together on OpenBSD? Has anybody done something similar? Thanks, m P.S. Even more fun: uvideo + motion detection software, and control the volume by swinging your arms. ;) Kids would love it until the speakers blew out.
Re: relayd: does timeout-directive limits time for SSL-handshake?
On Sep 26, 2008, at 5:01 PM, Till Neudecker wrote: I have a pretty normal loadbalancing setup (2 relayd-loadbalancer, 2 backend hosts). The loadbalancer accepts ssl-encrypted sessions and forwards them unencrypted to the backend-hosts. Because all the hosts are on the same LAN I set the global timeout-directive to 200ms. When now connecting from a slow internet-connection to my service, I often receive a "SSL accept timeout". After changing the global timeout to 2000ms the problem disappears. The man-pages only says timeout limits the time for the checks of the backend-hosts but nothing about the SSL-handshake from clients. Can someone agree or disgree to my guess that timeout also limits the time for the SSL-handshake? I have had this exact same experience this past week. I'm sure others can give you the specific details but my conclusion was that the timeout for relayd takes in the whole connection. This means that first the client connects to relayd which then does the SSL handshaking and so forth and then after this is successful relayd connects to the internal host. I think this process just takes too long when using SSL. I also made note that when I used relayd to add SSL to a service running on the same server as relayd, there were no issues. Bryan

Adjusting PF dynamically in response to network congestion
What kind of recommendations are there for automatically polling network
capacity and adjusting PF's AltQ accordingly?
At work, MSFters have gotten into the routers and have even made a nest
in the cellar. How much gopher gas is needed to clear out the nest and
what can be done to keep them from moving back in? The space is about
40m^2 with standard ceilings and there seems to be about a half dozen.
Due to various managerial and technical problems on some of the networks
one of my labs must currently cross, throughput seems to vary between
2Kb/s and 4Mb/s.
A workaround, while figuring out how to deal with the nest, is to use
AltQ. AltQ on PF works absolutely great so long as the limits placed by
AltQ match the actual network conditions.
However, I get poor performance if my cap is higher than what the other
networks can deal with. And, obviously, if I throttle unnecessarily,
then that's not optimal either.
For example if the capacity is 3Mb/s then throttling at 3Mb/s seems to
give good performance. But if the capacity is 2Mb/s, then throttling at
3Mb/s appears like it might be making slowness worse.
bw_ext="3Mb"# max external capacity
. . .
altq on $ext_if cbq bandwidth $bw_ext \
queue { main, ftp, ssh, sewage }
. . .
The nest seems to be interfering with regular ping and probably soon
with traceroute. What are good ways to poll the network's capacity and
adjust PF?

Example the HP DL385 will give you 4 PCI express lanes i.e 16 +2(onboard) 18 total 1000TX ports per firewall Enjoy nuffnough wrote: Hi, I read the thread that popped up a few months back, and the consensus was to buy a Dell or buy a switch and make VLANs, but neither of these options are suitable for my requirements.

Hey Samuel,
Somehow I missed seeing this message of yours:
http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/openbsd-misc/2007/10/31/374006
that's disappointing to me because I relly want to get mpd to
route through esd, but if I change my config file from
audio_output {
type"ao"
name"Libao Audio Device"
}
to
audio_output {
type"ao"
driver "esd"
name"esd"
}
I get `"esd" is not a valid ao driver at line 112`
I also tried
$ cat /etc/libao.conf
default_driver=esd
but it doesn't run esd. So did you get it working? And if so: how?

no, it is not ugly. it is a reasonable solution for a very common
case. you can easilly block other incoming connections with
restrictive pf rules. but please face reality - not everyone is in
control of their backend web servers since it is VERY common that the
loadbalancers (networking group) are handled by a different group than
the backend webservers (servers group). and it is also very common
that you run your fancy nice openbsd box in front of some other
"stuff". indeed, it is very common for loadbalancers and firewalls to
"fix" arbitrary systems attached to the network.

of course this is a better solution if you're in control of the

Thats it, you are -current, you only need bsd.rd if thats your initial install method, and you certainly dont need to make your own. Also note that you can just use binary snapshots and not ever build any source, *but* strictly speaking that is not -current, as extra experimental patches go into snaps.

The correct way to use bsd.rd
I am NOT trying to boot my root partition using bsd.rd. Although I see that I can using the -a option. I was trying to get a bsd.rd image like the one from the CDs, with the Install Upgrade and Shell options. I followed the instructions from release(8) closely but the generated binary is the same - it tells me it tries to boot from the ramdisk device and that it has size 0 and reboots. I don't intend it to use as a way to upgrade, it is easier to download the newer snapshots, I was just testing the functionality. I am obviously missing something and this is why I asked. I've just downloaded the one from the snapshots and see it is RAMDISK_CD. Do I need to build the RAMDISK_CD kernel instead of RAMDISK and it will work?

Hardware recommendation request
Hi, I read the thread that popped up a few months back, and the consensus was to buy a Dell or buy a switch and make VLANs, but neither of these options are suitable for my requirements. I presently have a pair of Intel Servers with 6 pci NICs plus one on board running as a clustered firewall. These are getting old, and I want to replace them. Only thing is, I am finding it impossible to find anyone who makes mobos with enough pci slots. Can anyone recommend a mobo that does?

I believe you have misread the FAQ. The bsd.rd kernels are used for: initial binary installations binary upgrades rescue If you are running -current, you have two choices: install (or upgrade to) a snapshot, and build -current from the source upgrade from snapshot to snapshot, never building -current yourself. It appears you chose the first. If you have built and installed your kernel, booted it, then did a "make build" of userland, you are already running -current. > However, when I place my > newly generated image in / and boot from it, it tells me that it lacks > a root filesystem... I'm not sure *what* you are trying to do. Perhaps you're trying to copy your -current system to your production environment? Please forgive this level-set: To boot the OS requires boot blocks be installed, to get to a point where the bootloader is run and a kernel selected. How you do that varies by architecture. For i368/amd64, you need an MBR program installed, via fdisk(8) typically, and a PBR installed via installboot(8). The PBR has the specific sectors where the bootloader program (/usr/mdec/boot, usually copied into /boot) is stored. When the kernel is booted, it will look for a root partition. By default, it will look in the disklabel for the "a" partition. You can override this with "boot -a". If the kernel cannot find (or be directed to) a root parition, the boot will fail. As I stated above, if you have built the kernel and userland (and optionally, xenocara) from the -current sources, you are running -current. *IF* you wish to copy this OS to another platform, you must build a release and do a binary install or binary upgrade. Instructions for making releases are in FAQ 5 and, for additional detail, in the release(8) man page.
