Re: network manager
Hi Nick and thanks for the answer. I have installed openbsd on my laptop and everything works fine,gnome too. What i haven't uderstand is: 1)I have a Digicom usb wifi with Zydas chipset and i 'vre read it's just supported...but i don't know to activate (command not found with lsusb and lspci) 2)Is there a graphical network manager like wicd or something where i can use wifi connections? 3)The audio. What do i need to initialize it? 4)Tar,zip ecc..how do you add with right-clck the function extract here? 5)Opera has Java included?Because from ports in java i can't install it the output is error 1 while installing... thanks !!

First: have you installed the associated gnome-* packages? Second: judging from it's homepage (http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/) it seems pretty linux-centric (and needs linux's HAL?). This isn't too surprising, networking is a fairly low level OS-specific operation, and the network manager would have to contend with all the varieties. Anyway, NetworkManager is flakey from my rare interactions with it on Ubuntu, why bother? -Nick -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/network-manager-tp21223616p21229304.html Sent from the openbsd user - misc mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
ftp from script
I'm trying to automate getting the sets and source for running -current. For some reason, this syntax: ftp -ia ftp://host.domain/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/architecture/*.tgz or this: ftp -ia ftp://host.domain/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/architecture/bsd.rd works great from the command line. But not in scripts, either shell: #!/bin/sh cd /where/I/put/sets rm * # all above work fine ftp -ia ftp://host.domain/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/architecture/*.tgz or perl: #!/usr/bin/perl `cd /where/I/put/sets`; `rm *`; # all above work fine `ftp -ia ftp://host.domain/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/architecture/*.tgz`; Using system () does not get any different behavior, whether I pass a list or a proper array. In all cases I see a connection to the server, followed by a complaint of an invalid directory, and disconnection. I've been using perl for about ten years, and I'm pretty sure my perl is ok. Anybody have an idea of what I'm missing?

IIUC, with ports right now, to get security fixes you have to run current and then you end up getting the latest verions of the upstream the lack of -stable ports/packages is indeed very sad. With this in mind, is it still a safe or fair assumption that if you only want a box that does web browsing in the most secure mode possible (for a web browsing box), lets say for something like internet banking, is OpenBSD + Firefox from ports going to be more secure than e.g. Debian base + Iceweasel (their off-brand Firefox)? I'd use the OpenBSD/ff combo over whateverlinux/ff any time, even if the ff on OpenBSD is older, yes. Is it older? If its older with backported bug fixes, fine. However, if ff has a big security bug found that, e.g. lets some remote yahoo read your local files, can anything on openbsd mitigate that security hole? Doug.

Re: Single Use Port Forwarding Using PF
Thanks for the response. I have considered this however the users who are connecting to the windows boxes are rather unsophisticated. The user also already has to authenticate when they connect to the Windows box. Adding another layer of authentication and software on the users end is undesirable.

Re: network manager
And if mixerctl doesn't help you then post a dmesg. It is good practice here to always send a dmesg when you have a hardware issue. There is no GUI wifi manager that I know of. There are various scripts that people have posted to misc@ over time to try to make wifi management 'smart'/'windows-like', but most OpenBSDers seem to prefer just typing a line at the command prompt. -Nick On 12/31/08, Rene Maroufi i...@maroufi.net wrote: On Wed, Dec 31, 2008 at 01:58:29AM -0800, lordfabri wrote: Hi Nick and thanks for the answer.
