so, why all this scripting?? you could simply use the following line to

accounts)
Because everyone has own environment and not enough details about
his/her environment give many solutions, sometimes not optimal for
another environment. Yours idea is good (if LDAP accounts work on
the system), especially that pw uses bitmap to find first unused UID
(if reuseuids is 'yes').
the 'cut' is necessary as 'pw usernext' reports the next free uid:gid in
combination (is this a bug??)
This is documented in pw(8) manual page.

For the first time my connections were not TLS encrypted, so it was easy to read content of packets. In my environment I don't use bindpw and OpenLDAP sever does not send passwords in any form to clients. Instead everyone is able to read all fields from user dn, except his/her password, when a user tries to login pam_ldap sends password over TLS encrypted channel to OpenLDAP server. Does commands like id bill works on a system with ldap_nss? Have you tried to use ldapsearch to query your LDAP server from a client machine? Create syslog-log file for LDAP server (slapd in case of OpenLDAP) and check it. By the way how are you going to share user home directories? One way is to use NFS with quota on a server (on several servers). I'm not very happy with this solution, because NFS will export all fs to clients, if somebody break root, then he/she can gain access to any user home directory. There is pam_mount, with some modifications it can be build on FreeBSD 5.x. Has somebody tried it with Samba? What are alternatives for NFS + quota for systems which use pam_ldap? ps: sorry, for possible double posting. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hello all,

How I tried to do this:

This step isn't necessary. Well, it might be, but only if you don't have
r-x access on /usr/ports and descendents.
I have to maintain own ports collection, because /usr/ports on
target server is very outdated.
But when I install any ports I'm asked to enter root password.
This is from the bsd.port.mk:
.if ${UID} != 0 defined(_${target:U}_SUSEQ)
[skip]
@echo === Switching to root credentials for '${target}' target
@cd ${.CURDIR} \
${SU} root -c ${MAKE} ${__softMAKEFLAGS} ${_${target:U}_SUSEQ}
@echo === Returning to user credentials
If I give correct root's password, then a port is installed to ~/local
and a package is registered in ~/local/var/db.
Hmm, don't know what this means. With the correct set of variables defined,
I have not yet been asked to provide the root password...
I think that something is broken in bsd.port.mk, because on another
machine with old /usr/ports I _can_ install ports under in my home
directory (using the method I described in my original message and
additionally defining NO_MTREE=yes in environment).
But with current ports collection that error about ``Switching to
root...'' always appeared. On my system bsd.port.mk has 1.456 version.
I suppose that this error was introduced in bsd.port.mk version 1.455.
Which version of bsd.port.mk is installed on your system?

How an arbitrary user can install ports in own home dir?
Hello all,
How an arbitrary user (without root credentials) can install ports
in own home dir?
How I tried to do this:
I created ~/local/ports, place Mk, Tools, Templates there.
I defined in .cshrc:
setenv PORTSDIR~/local/ports
setenv PREFIX ~/local
setenv PKG_DBDIR ~/local/var/db
But when I install any ports I'm asked to enter root password.
This is from the bsd.port.mk:
.if ${UID} != 0 defined(_${target:U}_SUSEQ)
[skip]
@echo === Switching to root credentials for '${target}' target
@cd ${.CURDIR} \
${SU} root -c ${MAKE} ${__softMAKEFLAGS} ${_${target:U}_SUSEQ}
@echo === Returning to user credentials
If I give correct root's password, then a port is installed to ~/local
and a package is registered in ~/local/var/db.
Questions:
1. Is there any way to tell ports system not to ask me root's
password? I guess that there should be a way to do it,
whithout patching Mk/* files.
2. How to tell make(1) to use ~/local/etc/make.conf file
(use another file, than /etc/make.conf)?

I want a 400GB threshold before the limiter kicks in, which will impose a byte/second limit for the remaining 100GB, so that it never goes over 500GB for the month. But, from when the limiter has started till the end of the month, it should recalculate remaining GB every half hour and adjust the byte/second limit accordingly, since peak/idle hours are so varied.

What's wrong ? Nothing is wrong, because #10 and #15 describe completely different firewall rules. For example, #10 checks only packets via ppp0, but #15 checks packets via any interface. And so on.

Does anyone known what is appening? I don't use IPv6, but I managed to configure some IPv6 aliases on lo0 wuth the help of /etc/rc.conf without any problems, I think you should give configuration you wrote in rc.conf and version of the system you use.

Re: No route to host

I looked through the FAQ and the docs about the prob. when you get the No route to host reply when trying to ping. But my nic is intact. I made some Kernel configurations cause I want this one PC act as a router. So I thought something with all the stuff I changed is wrong. So I # everything out in the rc.conf that might cause the problem. Even though, what I as a beginner don?t like is that there are so many examples out there about how to config your system to act as a router. Is there no main script that includes it all? Well so much for that one. Hopefully you guys can help me, since I?m totally down cause I?m working on that prob. 4 days now. Thanks in advance. Follow this steps: 1. Configure your kernel to see your NICs in dmesg(8) output. 2. Add ifconfig_fxp0=inet 10.10.10.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 like strings to /etc/rc.conf file and check if your NICs have correct IP addresses. Use ifconfig(8) command for this. 3. Add default route for your computer with the defaultrouter parameter in /etc/rc.conf. If you use, for example, pppd(8), then read documentation for pppd(8) how to set default route. 4. Then try to send packets to some hosts no in your LAN. 5. Say your computer to be a router with the gateway_enable variable in /etc/rc.conf. 6. ... try to do above steps first.

Re: help with socket programming

Shouldnt the new_fd be distinct everytime a new client
connects?
I don't clearly understand your question, especially if you
read Stevens books, but I'll try to answer.
new_fd variable is just overwritten each time accept() returns a new
socket descriptor for a new connection. If you need to keep connections
with all clients at the same time in a single server, so, you need to
save each new_fd descriptor in an array, for example.
If you fork() a new process for handling a new connection, then you need
to close() new_fd descriptor in the server and use new_fd descriptor in
the forked process.
In any way, it is better to ask such questions in comp.unix.programmer
news group.

Re: Help me with building JDK1.3.1 (strange error with BOOTDIRvariable)
Thanks, I'll try this (I've just started to download linux-sun-jdk13 from Sun). Actually I want to install Java plugin for Mozilla (compiled for FreeBSD), as I understand I try to install correct port for this, isn't it? What are the better arguments for make utility for jdk13 port if I want to build Java plugin for Mizlla?

Catch 22: you need an installed and working JDK before you can bottstrap a JDK. I this case, just install one of the linux JDK's --- I think linux-sun-jdk13 is quite popular for this job. Then you can build and install the native JDK, and once that's working OK, you can get rid of the linux JDK.
