Thanks, with these values the system doesn't freeze anymore and
I can send data from one port to another.
The speeds will almost certainly be wrong, you'll probably need to
cu -s 4800 to get a 9600 baud connection with this (the divisor should
be 400 * 16 but I couldn't get this to work, for more info see
http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-techm=126446213208560w=2).
I may have datasheets for this somewhere...you can learn some things
from the linux driver too, they have some fancy stuff to work out how
many ports the devices have, etc.
I tried to look at drivers/serial/8250_pci.c at one point, but couldn't
find anything special for these oxford cards. (I also didn't realize that
first_offset = 0x1000, .uart_offset = 0x200 maps into 0x1000/0x1200 on
OpenBSD, so I probably missed other things too.)
Look for pci_oxsemi_tornado_init(). Unfortunately I don't have my card
available for hacking on, it's running as an active console server in a
colo ~5 hours away.
Re: obtaining openbsd.pbr from windows 7
You're making this far more complicated than it needs to be. Run Windows 7/Vista. Download EasyBCD - http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=1 Run it as admin, add the OpenBSD partition to the boot menu. Done!

Hello I haven't been following the latest openbsd development very closely...shame on me :-( I just wanted to know how the current development of opensmtp is going? Is it ready for prime time or still considered as to early in development? Thanks

Re: obtaining openbsd.pbr from windows 7
On Mon, Mar 7, 2011 at 2:22 AM, marc li...@drwx.org wrote:
* If I do it from the existing openbsd in my drive, /dev/sd0a, I get
device busy.
It is not clear from your narrative what is the device node for your hard
drive. The FAQ boldly warns following the dd(1) command:
Note: this is a really good time to remind you that blindly typing
commands in you don't understand is a really bad idea. This line will
not work directly on most computers. It is left to the reader to adapt
it to their machine.
There is no way that the FAQ can anticipate whether users will have IDE,
SCSI, or SATA hard drives, so some investigation must occur on your part to
determine whether the hard drive used is wd(4) or sd(4). One of the easiest
ways to find the answer is to search through the output of dmesg(8). On my
older Thinkpad, I get:
$ dmesg | grep sd
sd0 at scsibus2 targ 1 lun 0: Corsair, Flash Voyager, 1.00 ATAPI 0/direct
removable
sd0: 978MB, 512 bytes/sec, 2002944 sec total
sd0 detached
$
...which gives details on a USB flash drive which had been attached at one
time, and:
$ dmesg | grep wd
wd0 at pciide0 channel 0 drive 0: HTS541060G9AT00
wd0: 16-sector PIO, LBA, 57231MB, 117210240 sectors
wd0(pciide0:0:0): using PIO mode 4, Ultra-DMA mode 5
$
...which is my actual hard drive in my laptop. What you will find may be
entirely different (including the appended number to the end of the
device...), but the driver reported must be reflected in the dd(1) command
used. If I wanted to create the PBR for my laptop, I would use the
following:
# dd if=/dev/rwd0a of=openbsd.pbr bs=512 count=1
If I were to blindly ( incorrectly) run the command stated in the FAQ, I
would get the error Device not configured. You mention device busy.
Did you run this command as root (which is the meaning of the # shell
prompt...)?
* If I boot with the cd rom neither msdos nor ntfs are available so I
can't write the .pbr file to an accessible place from windows.
* If I boot with the cd rom and write the .pbr file in the bsd filesystem,
I can't read it from windows 7 (I couldn't find a program to mount bsd
filesystems which works with windows 7).
You haven't thought through the ramifications of the MBR active flag. The
MBR contains entries for four possible primary partitions. Only one of them
will be marked active. When the system is next booted, the BIOS will search
through these four entries to determine which primary partition will be
searched for an operating system. Boot managers are simply elaborate
gimmicks to easily set the active flag. fdisk(8) can be used to change the
active partition. In fact, you could use OpenBSD's fdisk(8) to change the
MBR's active flag to next boot Windows, bcdedit (as I recall...) within
Windows to change the active flag to next boot OpenBSD, but this is
laborious.
If you chose whole disk when prompted with the following question during
installation:
Use (W)hole disk or (E)dit the MBR?
...the active flag will have been set automatically for OpenBSD's
partition. If (E)dit is chosen, you can set it manually to whatever
partition you wish. Also, if you chose whole disk, I can only hope you
backed up your Windows partition as it may not be there now.
Studying the FAQ before attempting multibooting as a newcomer is required.
Thinking is too.
Does anybody have a solution to any of these problems or a 4th way?
The biggest problem seen in your message is a failure to grasp the nuances
of the boot process or the needed commands. You can overcome this, but it
will require attention to detail tenacity.
I had the impression that the command:
C:\Windows\system32 bcdedit /set {0154a872-3d41-11de-bd67-
a7060316bbb1}
path \openbsd.pbr
requires that the openbsd.pbr file is at located at the root of c:\. Am I
wrong?
This is correct. As I recall, Windows 7 has less restrictions on where the
PBR is located, but for the purpose of the FAQ, putting the PBR in C:\ is
fine. bcdedit simply needs to be instructed as to its location.
Also recognize that the GUID used in the commands issues on your computer
are system-dependent. Don't simply cut-and-paste from the FAQ. Doing so
will result in a misconfigured boot manager.
Good luck.

Ideas for securing OpenVPN on an OpenWrt router
ok, i putted an OpenVPN server on port 1194 on an OpenWrt 10.03 router. https://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=xEZTvnhT http://pastebin.mozilla.org/1138443 Questions: what could i do to increase security regarding this OpenVPN server? - i mean on server side! 1 - i sed 's/1194/5/' the port number to a higher one - it's against the automated robots, ok! 2 - iptables? i should only allow ip ranges [on the input chain] that i will use in reality? - ok! 3 - if i don't use my router - e.g.: when i'm sleeping i just turn it off. 4 - ? what else?? Plese write down you're idea/solution!!! OpenWrt isn't OpenBSD, so from the ps command i can see that the OpenVPN is runned by root. it's not so secure. How can i make it more secure?

restore wants a new tape but none exists!
On OpenBSD -current (although this has happened before). While restoring from file today I ran across this. At this point I've already done the level 0 and level 1 restore. root@slony:/var/www $ restore -i -f /backup/2.var_www restore add * restore: ./logs: File exists restore: ./wykids: File exists restore: ./wykids/login: File exists restore extract You have not read any tapes yet. Unless you know which volume your file(s) are on you should start with the last volume and work towards the first. Specify next volume #: 1 restore: ./logs/old_pglogd_fifo: cannot create fifo: File exists restore: ./logs/pglogd_fifo: cannot create fifo: File exists Mount tape volume 2 Enter ``none'' if there are no more tapes otherwise enter tape name (default: /backup/2.var_www) none You have read volumes: 1 Specify next volume #: none Volume number invalid: none Specify next volume #: and so on and so until I ctrl-c out. Is this worthy of a bug report or is there a peback afoot here? Thanks, Jeff Ross

I'd like to contribute if possible, I don't mind if it's a LOT of work, but I will probably get stuck if it's very complicated.

Well, you would have to totally redo the guts of dump if you want to fix this well known behaviour. Dump scans and writes the meta-data first and then writes the data for the files. If you have ever used restore you would note that it builds the directory structure first and then puts the data back. Dump comes unstuck when the file system meta data changes during the backup - when files are added or deleted. The safest way to do a dump is when the machine is in single user mode for this very reason but many people play fast and loose because they cannot wear the outage for a backup, in that case you must quiesce the file systems as best you can. Really, this is well known unix sys admin procedure. Have a go at fixing it, by all means, but note that people _like_ the interactive restore mode where you can select the files to restore by browsing and would find it unacceptable to wait for a full tape scan before they can perform this task. It will be interesting to see how you go about handling files appearing and disappearing during the backup. -- Brett Lymn Warning: The information contained in this email and any attached files is confidential to BAE Systems Australia.

Re: OpenBSD 4.8 HP ProLiant DL360 G7 Install OK?
We are running stock OpenBSD 4.8 on several DL360 G6 and G7 and a additional HP NC364T PCI Express Quad Port Gigabit Server Adapter. We are running them in pairs as a firewall cluster with pfsync and carp and also as stand alone as a router but we have problem with random freezes. We have tried both AMD64 and i386, all patched up to latest errata but we can't make them work stable. Now are we using VMware ESXi as a layer between the hardware and OpenBSD and every thing works just perfect, not a single freeze since we did this .. work around Our bug report on this matter: http://cvs.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/query-pr-wrapper?full=yesnumbers=6321 Since we don't know how to resolve this our future with OpenBSD is most unsure, we have more then 50 installations on different platforms and it's only G6 och G7 that are causing any problem. It's hard to say if it's only us since I never hear anything about this issue but we sure feels alone.
