Problem booting OpenBSD/amd64 with LSI MegaRAID card
Hello, I'm running into a problem when I try to boot the OpenBSD install disc with an LSI Logic MegaRAID SAS 9240-8i (mfi driver) card installed in the machine. I take the card out and it boots just fine from the disc, but I get the following panic with the RAID card in: --- boot> cannot open cd0a:/etc/random.see: No such file or directory booting cd0a:/6.2/amd64/bsd.rd: 3371132+1459200+3873512+0+598016 [373741+82+427200+282103]=0x9e99c0 entry point at 0x1000158 panic: init_x86_64: can't find end of memory The operating system has halted. Please press any key to reboot. --- The card is in an Intel Core 2 Quad system with 8GB of RAM. It has two logical drives, one in RAID5 and another in RAID1. Any help getting past this would be much appreciated. If more information is needed, please let me know. Thanks, Shane
Re: vmd: alpine-virt guest, clock synchronization issue

This can be a problem for applications that relies on accurate time. Even after sync clock with ntpd inside alpine-virt guest, it gets out-of-sync a few seconds later. I get on the guest about half the clock frequency of the host. Anyone having similar problems? cheers. x9p I've noticed the same thing on my laptop running an amd64 6.2 install. It was really very slow to install and slow via console and ssh now that I've got it running. I just thought it was something I had done/was doing. Even with ntpd running, it's now way behind.

Using OpenBSD for Malware Analysis
Hi everyone, Has anyone used OpenBSD to perform malware analysis? I know radare2 is in ports so was just wondering if anyone had any experience. I know most analysis is done using Linux distros but I'd prefer to use OpenBSD if feasible. Thanks, Shane

I suppose, mixerctl.conf is placed in /etc and consist of name/value pairs as in output of the comand mixerctl, I suppose you edit only the values changing them. I supose that I must supose because these man pages are not precise enought. Rod. Pretty much. All the different settings (name/value) are outputted to the config file in /etc. Just edit it and mixerctl will use that file for it's config.

Re: running mail server at home
I run all my stuff at home and even do virtual hosting for web and mail for one of my wife's websites. I have a separate box for mail running postfix, dovecot, postgresql, clamd, and spamd.

Re: running mail server at home
I beg to differ. It really depends on your ISP and how far you really want to go. I've run everything (DNS, mail, etc) out of my basement for 3 years now. Granted I had to switch ISPs in order to do so and upgrade to a server class DSL line. They even delegated control of my reverse DNS to me. It's all part of a standard package they provide. Again, it just comes down to your ISP and how far you really want to go. I'm sure there are quite a few on the list that do this. Regards, Shane L. V. Lammert wrote: On Thu, 7 Feb 2008, Douglas A.

In reality, you cannot run your own mail server at home. This would require: 1) DNS resolution for your domain name 2) Appropriate MX records 3) Valid REVERSE DNS for your IP #3 is usually the big factor for most ISPS, without it, you will not be able to send email to any 'sane' mail server.

Re: nfe0 problem (obsd 4.1)
I have one of the older Sun Ultra 20 systems that also has an nfe(4) in it. It does the same thing everytime I try to cvs or put a load on the interface. Only way around it was to install a second NIC. Like someone else mentioned before, until more documentation is available, probably won't get any better. Until then it won't bother me to run a second NIC. Regards, Shane patrick keshishian wrote: Hi, I've been noticing some strange problems with the built-in nfe0 interface on my desktop. Actually I've seen it on two such computers, but the description below is for my current desktop PC. The PC is running `cvs up -dP -rOPENBSD_4_1' built. I'm including netstat, ifconfig output[1] and dmesg below[2]. I've noticed that once in a while the nfe0 interface will stop sending and receiving data. At this point I can not make it work again. The only solution I have is to reboot the box. I have installed a dc0 card in the box since. The problem seemed intermittent and not reliably reproducible. But I think I found a way to reproduce this problem on demand (at least for the time being). I have an ssh session to another box, on which I run '/usr/bin/nm somelib.so'. After a page or two of output the terminal hangs. At this point nfe0 becomes unresponsive. I switch to the dc0 interface and the terminal finishes the output. Running the nm command while using the dc0 interface doesn't cause any problems. Interestingly enough, if I redirect the output of nm to a file and subsequently cat the file the nfe0 interface doesn't seem to exhibit the same problem. I am not sure how to diagnose this problem further. I've enabled debug on the nfe0 interface (/sbin/ifconfig nfe0 debug), but don't see any output.

My staff needs to be able to add accounts easily and unfortunately, the command line is not that easy for them. BSD auth, ldap, sql, text files - take your pick... There's also dovecot-sieve if you need server-side filtering. One thing to note if you use milters, Postfix milter support is not based on libmilter; building milter apps on a box with Sendmail 8.14 installed will result in breakage when run against Postfix until Postfix milter support is updated unless you take extra care.

Re: OpenBSD Web Mail Security
If you don't want to run PHP, you could run OpenWebMail. It's written in Perl or you could roll your own. Courier also has it's own web-based software. Personally, I run Dovecot, Postfix, SquirrelMail and use PostgreSQL for virtual mailboxes. I was running Cyrus and liked it, but found it was too heavy for my needs (may not be for your's). Dovecot works out better for me and I've found my current setup to be somewhat faster than the old setup. It all depends on your needs and there are ways of mitigating (however not eliminating) PHP's security issues.

I would prefer not to disable ichiic* in the kernel config, but will do so if necessary. Below is a dmesg from the system (MP Spec: 1.4/HT: Off) with MPVERBOSE set in the kernel config. I'm hoping I just missed something and that it is easily corrected.
