Unfortunately, whilst this might work for very simple things, you're on to something of a lost cause in the grander scheme of things (read: you might as well just write your own window manager.) I'd dearly love to be able to relicence FVWM, but that requires something I cannot do for a twenty year project. It's a real shame, but there's code added there from all sorts of proprietary companies over the years, and contacting them in nigh impossible. > I've been playing a bit with the newer one.

This is where it'll go south. You need EWMH support for this, and you can't just pick-and-choose the best bits and shoe-horn it in to that FVWM version at all easily. The undertaking would be quite big. -- Thomas Adam

That means the in-memory copy of the superblock had zeros in on other another member. If the on-disk superblock had zeros there, I would expected fsck to catch it, or for it to crash earlier, but maybe a forced fsck is in order.

One thing we can do is re-do some of the useful code. I've been playing a bit with the newer one. One thing I really would like is for chromium (video) and fvwm to play nice with each other, namely an implementation of the stuff that makes it possible to go fullscreen and back.

Re: DNS Proxy
Use the D option in ssh(1) and the SOCKS proxy will do lookups through the tunnel. Make sure you use version 5 (OpenSSH supports 4 and 5).

I don't know about that, but the same can be accomplished if your server runs sshd and your friend sets up an SSH tunnel for instance using PuTTY and Firefox. O.D.

First, the pkgtools operate in such a way as to make sure everything is consistent most of the time. Second, they know about ^C, and will abort operations in a smart way. Finally, there's a pkg_check tool that's occasionally useful, most often after a power outage in the middle of a package update... pkg_add does what it can, but it can't do a lot against unfinished writes leading to fsck. Also, if a machine ever crashes in the middle of an installation, pkg_add is smart enough to recognize that files have been already installed from an existing package. e.g., perform a pkg_add foo rm -rf /var/db/pkg/foo-* pkg_add foo -> will say something like "files detected that match a foo package that wasn't registered. Repair ? (Y/n/a)"

Re: pkg_add hung?
sometimes a mirror will time out, I have seen this, so I swap between ftp3.usa.openbsd.org and ftp5.usa.openbsd.org; I have had very good response from both of these; alos sometimes, a file is missing, and this throws an error. Then I switch mirrors, kill the pkg_add process and restart pkg_add. otherwise I never have a problem.

Are you able to do a "telnet mirror.jmu.edu 21" and get successfully connected or not? You could just copy/paste text of your terminal. My guess is there is a firewall which is not allowing your OpenBSD server to connect to the mirror (dropping packets). It can be the local firewall itself or another one depending of your network architecture.

Kernel panics on amd64 recently - do I have bad hardware?
Hey folks, I've had a helluva week - my colocated server has crashed at least four times, and I'd like a little sanity check from people that know a lot more than I do. Sorry for the length of this, trying to include all the data I'm aware of that might be relevant and helpful. For the two crashes that I've been able to capture some output from (one from an IP KVM, one from /var/log/messages after setting ddb.panic=0), I've seen: uvm_fault(0x81cf2b20, 0x80cef000, 0, 2) -> e kernel: page fault trap, code=0 Stopped at memmove+0x16: repe movsq (%rsi),%es:(%rdi) and reboot after panic: trap type 8, code=0, pc=81292dff Because kernel panics are so rare in OpenBSD, I don't have much experience debugging them.

In this case, I would suggest ssh'ing to the OpenBSD vm from a terminal in the host OS, rather than using the VM console, there should be less trouble with keymaps.

I'd say you use it to add users, but since your user name already existed you could not. It makes sense to me. When I cat /etc/sudoers, its not there. adduser(8) adds system users, which are defined in /etc/master.passwd (and /etc/password). For these users, specific configuration may or may not exist in /etc/sudoers. /etc/sudoers does not define local user accounts. The question is what you really wanted to do. I wanted to add myself to the sudo group. There is no spoon. Or group named sudo for that matter, unless you created it yourself, which I suspect you didn't. I'm not a BSD admin - I'm just a dumb user. So I'm probably doing something wrong. I just haven't figured out what it is. As pointed out, you expect OpenBSD to behave and be configured in the same way as some other system you recently used. That is not necessarily true. man and apropos are your friends. Probably the FAQ, too. Happy hunting! /Alexander
DNS Proxy
Hi all, I'm running OpenBSD 5.2 with squid for a friend who owns an ISP outside the U.S and uses my OpenBSD squid proxy to access netflix. I've been told this can be also accomplished via DNS Proxy. Is it true? If yes which one do you recommend? Thanks

All I did when I did my new install this week was : $su # enter password $usermod -G wheel,operator username # obviously my username $visudo use 'j' to scrol down to the line that says users in wheel group can use sudo and uncomment it. Then press 'esc' ( to go into command mode for vi) and press ':' then 'wq' and press return. Simple.

I can appreciate that CRA would prefer a national agency's record. Looking around, it seems their CSV generator is actually very generous, freely dumping 10 years' (and more) worth data to me. Playwith dF (start) and dT (end, today usually), ensure that sR<=dF: http://www.bankofcanada.ca/stats/results/csv?sF=LOOKUPS_CAD&lP=lookup_currency_converter.php&sR=2003-09-14&sTF=to&sT=LOOKUPS_IEXE0101&co=1.00&dF=2003-09-14&dT=2013-09-14 Without knowing what the backend or language is like, I could only shoot in the dark. Languages like Python, PHP, and Ruby all have native JSON wrappers; there are a handful of libraries for C, albeit JSON objects don't translate easily into a strictly-typed langauge; heck there's even JSON.sh (among others) for bash. On the whole, I find JSON extremely easy to work with. Let us know how the project goes! Regards, Bryce Chidester
