Re: Deprecating base system ftpd?

Don't forget that Telnet is an actual protocol, which telnet(1) implements. nc is (for the most part) just a byte-copying middleman. There's still gear out there that speaks Telnet, and expects the client to support it (primarily for things like line mode editing). --lyndon

Intel Xeon D-2146NT SoC Support

[ I asked this on -hardware but didn't get any responses, so I'm widening the scope a bit. ] We're looking a buying a Supermicro system with the X11SDV-8C-TP8F motherboard. This uses a Xeon D-2146NT SoC. It's not clear what the embedded chipset is, so it's proving a bit tricky to confirm

Re: LAGG and Jumbo Frames

Everything on physical Ethernet has support for it Including the LAN interface of Firewall, and talks to it just fine over a single interface with Jumbo frames enabled. Well, before you get too carried away, try this: 1) Run a ttcp test between a pair of local hosts using the exiting

Re: LAGG and Jumbo Frames

This is almost certainly a PMTUd issue. Unless your end-to-end paths to everything you talk to have jumboframes configured, there's no benefit to setting them up on the lagg. Just go with the default MTU. --lyndon ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org

Re: ssh-keygen between SuSE and FreeBSD

That made it possible for me to ssh from SuSE server to FreeBSD server, but now when I ssh from my Mac to SuSE server it wants a password now: ssh-agent holds your keys in memory for you, and provides them to remote systems when needed. You need to run it on each system you log in to. If you

Re: FreeBSD vs Region Code DVDs

I've had similar experiences with DaVinci Code and Casino Royal. Casino Royale is using something new. It managed to trip up Mac The Ripper, which so far has had a 100% success rate for me. In general the Sony infections imbed bad sectors on the disks in locations that a DVD player parsing

Re: [OT] resolv.conf and dhclient

Unfortunately, supersede doesn't cut it (for me). I have two interfaces, one wired and one wireless. Both addresses are negotiated via DHCP. However, I do /not/ want to use the DNS servers provided via the wireless connection. interface ath0 { supersede domain-name orthanc.ca;

Re: [OT] resolv.conf and dhclient

And what happens when I'm connected at home, and need to view portions of DNS that are only accessible to the wired network? Split DNS is a PITA. If your nameservers are smart enough they will see which path a query took, and act appropriately. Sadly, ours at work aren't. Yet. But as

Re: resolver doesn't see resolv.conf changes

Is the resolver supposed to periodically check for updates to the resolv.conf, or are the applications somehow caching the IP of the DNS server? No, resolv.conf is only read once when the resolver routines initialize. The solution is to run a local caching nameserver instance. You should do

If the software you're using gets the version in the same manner as uname, then all you should need is a new kernel. Or maybe just LD_PRELOAD a replacement for uname() that fakes out the release information? --lyndon ___
