We find you doing this where I work and ... . Second my helpful reply. :-) Ok, so you don't know the specifics of the proxy. The reason I ask is if it's a MITM proxy, ala Bluecoat, the proxy actually looks at the session contents. If the packets don't look like proper allowed traffic it gets blocked. If it's a dumb proxy you might be able to get through using something like httptunnel. Stating access the Internet doesn't explain what kind of traffic is allowed, however my assumption ( I hate to assume ) is they only want to allow http / https traffic, with perhaps ftp traffic too. diana
Qlogic ISP SATA JBOD hardwiring disk drives
I am trying to hardwire two eurologic bays of 12 each sata 250gb disk drives to use with raidframe. I had both on one port of the qlogic 23xx and noticed that the drives appeared to swap depending on the order of powering up the two bays. I now have the two bays on different qlogic ports. Forming the correct question is difficult due to possibilities. Question try#1: is there some way to WWN tie the ports to sd device? Question try#2: is there some way to do this? If I pull out a drive, they all shift (on that isp device). Question try#3: Is there a way to volume label drives and have them mount? Question try#4: Is there a way to have out of order raids work nicely with raidframe (don't know if it works?)? Ok, whatever the right question to be asking is.

Amen. For my purposes, duplicity to Amazon S3 has been great. Last monthly bill was $0.17 USD. That's not a typo, 17 cents for daily incremental backups spanning 60 days. That is, a full every 30 days, incrementals otherwise, and retaining two consecutive sets at any given time. It's so cheap, how can you not afford good backups... Be sure you test recovery before you have a failure. Backups are worthless unless you can recover them. Preacher, choir, ... Jim

We find you doing this where I work and ... . Second my helpful reply. :-) Ok, so you don't know the specifics of the proxy. The reason I ask is if it's a MITM proxy, ala Bluecoat, the proxy actually looks at the session contents. If the packets don't look like proper allowed traffic it gets blocked. If it's a dumb proxy you might be able to get through using something like httptunnel. Stating access the Internet doesn't explain what kind of traffic is allowed, however my assumption ( I hate to assume ) is they only want to allow http / https traffic, with perhaps ftp traffic too. diana Hi Diana, this is a 'dumb' proxy and allows http/https traffic only. So ports 80 and 443! What I'm after is the ssh command I have to issue in order to open a connection from 'a1' to 'a3'! If I read correctly, in case I would have used putty on 'a1' I should do the following: http://meinit.nl/using-putty-and-an-http-proxy-to-ssh-anywhere-through-firewalls I was wondering if ssh flag '-L' is doing the same job.

kernel freeze randomly
Hi I get kernel freeze randomly on Compaq 6710b with -CURRENT synced today. It is best reproduced by keeping the system busy, such as building userland, but there are no guarantees. I've been running memtester and also memory and hd test in bios, no errors were found. I get no ddb or any other output on terminal, it just freezes up. What can I do to retrieve information so I can file a proper bug report? There is no DE-9 contact but the serial port is enabled in BIOS and I do have a uftdi-device, if that might be useful. Any help is appreciated. /Markus OpenBSD 4.5-beta (GENERIC.MP) #67: Wed Feb 11 19:31:29 CET 2009 r...@klang:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC.MP real mem = 2137718784 (2038MB) avail mem = 2063872000 (1968MB) mainbus0 at root bios0 at mainbus0: SMBIOS rev. 2.4 @ 0xf2a6d (25 entries) bios0: vendor Hewlett-Packard version 68DDU Ver.

Re: Can't ping top-level public IP subnets
So I tried pinging to the unreachable subnet from my router with pf disabled. The address is resolved by the DNS server I have listed, but I still get no response. I ping that IP address and it doesn't want to respond (destination unreachable). This is with pf disabled too, so I can't blame pf. What else can I blame? However I find that I can ping the 184.159.35.xxx subnet. I even played around with the netmask changing it from 255.255.255.0 to 255.255.0.0, but that didn't seem to help. So I can ping hosts on my own public IP subnet, I can ping hosts outside of 184.159.xxx.xxx like google etc, but I can't ping hosts within 184.159.xxx.xxx itself aside from 35. We actually have other computers on the 184.159.35.xxx subnet and they can reach all hosts on all subnets, no problem. For that, we're using a standard netgear gigabit router. What else can I change on ifconfig to tweak with this?

OpenBGPD handling
I am curious to know how well OpenBGPD handles the BGP update dynamics as described in this Cisco RFP. http://www.cisco.com/web/about/ac50/ac207/crc_new/university/RFP/rfp07026.ht ml This is assuming running OpenBGPD with full tables over gig ethernet connections and on a modern hardware (multi gigahertz CPU and multi gigabytes of RAM + intel gigE nics). Are there any general concerns or issues with BGP updates causing performance issues on the system? Compatibility problems with any hardware vendors' BGP implementations? Etc From my reading it seems that all normal/standard BGP functionality is present if not enhanced (bgp session key management, etc) in OpenBGPD and that performance is comparable to expensive Cisco grade router hardware and the user testimonials look pretty good too. http://www.openbgpd.org/users.html. Are there any features or functionality that anyone has found lacking in OpenBGPD? Thanks for your time

Re: Can't ping top-level public IP subnets
CARP interfaces don't share L3 (IP) config with the parent, it's just the physical interface where packets travel through. You need to configure the netmask and ip address separately; they may even be in completely different networks. If you don't specify a netmask for carp0 some default will be used, which is likely wrong.

I have read every thing I can imagine on the FAQ at openbsd.org och the man pages according to pf.conf Then I target $mirror on ANY port from $client I want the mirror to connect to the $server here's an example you can base it on. to simplify my example, this doesn't restrict to a specific client - this could have some repercussions if you're configuring the pf box remotely, so probably best do it from the console. :-) mirror=11.22.33.44 server=33.44.55.66 rdr on re0 proto tcp to $mirror - $server no nat on re0 proto tcp from $mirror to $server nat on re0 proto tcp to $server - $mirror this is tested and does work.
X forwarding at amd64 to i386
I saw on the list a while back that some stuff only works on i386, but not amd. Forget what it was but was something I use. If I were to get an amd64, could I use x11 forwarding to access an i386 and run an application that wouldn't fly under amd64 but works on i386??
Openbsd as a transparent bridge
List, I have following setup: B sys:a ---SWITCHOPENBSD/BRIDGESWITCHsys:b B 192.168.1.2(NO IPs)192.168.1.10 B B I have enabled bridging by doing the following: B B B /etc/hostname.bge0 up /etc/hostname.bge1 up /etc/hostname.bridge0 add bge0 add bge1 I have enabled ip forwarding in /etc/sysctl.conf B Shouldn't I see sys:a from sys:b??? I can't see the sys:a from sys:b or sys:b from sys:a. B It doesn't seem that openbsd/bridge is forwarding the packets to the other side. I would appreciate any help. thx.

IBM ServeRAID support
as some of you might know the ips(4) driver aimed to support IBM ServeRAID SATA/SCSI controllers was here starting from 4.1. but due to a nasty bug in the code it was not enabled on any install media. the snap from the feb 11 contains the updated ips driver with that bug fixed and various other improvements. read the man page to see what controllers are supported. the driver enabled on the installation cd. if you have a machine you always wanted to run openbsd but couldn't because the lack of this driver please give it a try. if everything goes smooth just mail your dmesg to dm...@openbsd.org after install. if you have any problems mail me. before mailing me about the bugs first do a little thing. attach a serial console to the machine having the problems. type in the boot prompt: boot boot -d then in the ddb prompt: ddb w ips_debug 0xff ddb c you should see a lot of debug messages on the console which will help me to debug your problem. grab them all and add to your mail. the tree will be locked for the 4.5 release very soon so if you want to have a stable ServeRAID support in 4.5 please test it asap. thanks. -- Alexander Yurchenko
