Regards -Lars All right, I've had enough of your tilting at windmills. This battle has been fought and lost already. E-mail is the de facto way to collaborate, and that includes collaborating with documents and files. If you weren't supposed to send or receive binary attachments, e-mail clients wouldn't allow it (nor MTAs, for that matter). Even UNIX command line e-mail clients have had this capability for... what, decades? Stop crying about your made-up rules that the protocol standards don't seem to agree with. There are a bunch of neat products out there that can strip _large_ attachments off and place them on a secure webserver, but these are not a reasonable way to send _every_ attachment. Some system administrators believe it's their place to tell entire companies how they should do everything. These administrators tend to not be very employable. -- bk

I m not subscribing to this mailing list to waste anyones time I m subscribing in the hope of getting valuable help. Neglecting that wasting my times with an arrogant answer like that is perfectly ok. I m no expert on OpenBSD far from it. I have had it running on a router for a couple of years. Never needed any interaction. But those things that I learnt is soon forgotten as I don t use it much. And searching on google have been fruitless I have been doing that for the last couple of hours.

Re: Release IP-adress OpenBSD 3.8
Okay, so here are the steps that should have been taken to find the answer to the question asked. I want to release the IP-adress? I have had it running on a router for a couple of years. Never needed any interaction. the correct answer is you can't. man -k dhcp - Me $ man -k dhcp dhclient (8) - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Client dhclient-script (8) - DHCP client network configuration script dhclient.conf (5) - DHCP client configuration file dhclient.leases (5) - DHCP client lease database dhcp (8) - configuring OpenBSD for DHCP dhcp-options (5) - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol options dhcpd (8) - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Server dhcpd.conf (5) - dhcpd configuration file dhcpd.leases (5) - DHCP client lease database $ man dhcpd DHCPD(8)OpenBSD System Manager's Manual DHCPD(8) NAME dhcpd - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Server -L leased_ip_table When an address is leased dhcpd will insert it into the pf(4) table named leased_ip_table. Addresses are removed from the table when the lease expires. Combined with the table of aban- doned addresses, this can help enforce a requirement to use DHCP on a network, or can place DHCP users in a different class of service. Users are cautioned against placing much trust in Eth- ernet or IP addresses; *ifconfig(8) can be used to trivially change the interface's address*, and on a busy DHCP network, IP addresses will likely be quickly recycled. $ man ifconfig Next time don't be so quick to tell other to read man pages then suggest something cant be done. (You might learn something if you read them in there entirety) Cheers, Jim

Re: This is what Linus Torvalds calls openBSD crowd
I agree entirely! The OpenBSD developers should surely be raised upon shoulders for all of there work... However a mocking sticker would be rather awesome! -Jim
