Re: upgrading from 5.4-RELEASE-p4 to 5.4-RELEASE-p5
Louis LeBlanc wrote: There was a new security announcement a couple days ago regarding the devfs subsystem in FreeBSD. The announcement is here: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/advisories/FreeBSD-SA-05:17.devfs.asc My question is regarding the upgrade and patch description. I am running 5.4_RELEASE-p4. The alert suggests either patching and rebuilding the kernel or upgrading to 5.4-RELEASE-p5. Upgrading to 5-STABLE or RELENG_5_4 means synchronising your source with one of these CVS tagged branches and then rebuilding your system. In this particular case only the kernel really needs to be rebuilt and reinstalled. Some people however prefer to always rebuild the kernel and world to ensure synchronicity of the two. If I decide to upgrade my source, would it be sufficient (and safe) to just rebuild the kernel, or do I still need to rebuild world? In this case, you could do with only rebuilding and installing the kernel. The only files changed between my last build and this one are src/UPDATING src/sys/conf/newvers.sh src/sys/fs/devfs/devfs_vnops.c And for such a small change (I checked the patch, it's literally a 2 line change - sanity check of parameters for the defvs_mknod() call - plus commentary), would it really be necessary to go through the mergemaster process? (from my POV, this is the most tedious and error prone part of the whole process). No, here it is not necessary. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: better disk reliability on a desktop machine
- /usr/ports/sysutils/smartmontools can help you monitor your HDDs - RAID 0 doubles the chances of HDD failure and thereby data loss - DVDs and CDs are chronically unreliable, see the 14/2005 issue of the German c't magazine where they tested CD/DVD burners and media and found out that a lot of media are neither burnable nor readable by a lot of CD/DVD drives - But since you need high performance on your HDDs and backup to tape, you're probably fine - A hybrid approach of backing up data to a separate box and to some removable media is probably the best. And, nowadays at least, not even that expensive, e.g. Mini-ITX boards are cheap and fast enough for this purpose. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

How immune is a FreeBSD system from spyware? As secure as the weakest software you're running on it. For sure, we should all be following the standard advice of NEVER surfing the web using the root account! But you probably install software with root privileges. Thus a modification of this question is: if we do not surf the web using root, can we still get infected with spyware? Yes, if the software you use has a vulnerability and yes, if the software you're installing has spyware in it, then it will be installed with the privileges you use for installation.

Re: Sporadical NFS errors with NetApp backend (solved)

Hello,
alas I get not response to my question, but some more googling and
testing leads to a solution.
With the following mount options all runs well:
tcp,rw,bg,dumbtimer,-r=32768,-w=32768
the most important thing is to not use any of the following
intr or soft
it seems (only idea and wild speculation), that with even the intr
mount option some IO ops are interrupted, so that I see the reported

Perhaps the problem are a signal send to a thread???

Re: Mailscanner PC requirements
Hi might need more RAM, esp is you plan to use Spamassassin with the MS setup. My old system (cel 500 512MB RAM) would top out around 14,000 messages per day of around 25kb average size. But I was also running MailWatch and the associaed mysql DB on the box as well and lots of extra SA rules.. As for performance related stuff vmstat/iostat/sar are good places to start. Also you don't mention the MTA to be used. This can make a huge difference. Sendmail and Postfix tend to slower with exim and qmail faster in that order. You'll get extra performance by turning on softupdates on the spool directory filesystems too. You can tune a couple of settings in MailScanner.conf which will help a lot: As each mailscanner process uses about 20Mb of memory you probably want to reduce the number of mailscanner children to 2 or 3. for example: Max Children = 3 Dont recommend using only one because if that one chokes then the system can stop processing mail altogether. Two or three children decreases that risc. Also if using spamassassin you can set spamassassins timeout high. I have not heard of any drawbacks with this and it saves you lots of worries, and especially so in a system with small resources. for example: SpamAssassin Timeout = 600 See you on the MailScanner users email list (under my work email). also recommended reading: http://wiki.mailscanner.info -- Hilsen from Lars -- Martin On 6/1/05, Jean-Paul Natola [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all, First OFF NEWBIE here - so please bear with me-- I have installed FreeBSD 5.4 on a box that I plan to use Mailscanner to filter the mail prior to hitting my Mail server.

Re: Finding out original source of e-mail
I'm trying to find the true souce of this e-mail.is it possible to do this? Looking at the first received line shows that FWM-D38.sysops.aol.com received the email from 204.214.222.51. Usually you would expect to see a name associated with that address, but in this case there isn't. Spammers sometimes add headers to confuse antispamsoftware. Only the last added Received: header can be trusted. That one was added by your mailserver, and contains information as seen from there. If you want to confirm the information from the next steps you will need access to logs on servers involved. My advice?

The default keybindings in Joe are based on those used in WordStar which used ^K (as well as ^Q) for many commands, so it is mainly historical reasons. WordStar used to be very popular so many people are already familiar with those keybindings (either directly from WordStar, or from one of the many other programs that also used some variant of them.) I don't think K stands for anything really - I think it was chosen mainly because it was placed in a convenient position on the keyboard. The WordStar keybindings might not seem very logical at first glance, but ones fingers very quickly learn them. (Unlike e.g. the default keybindings in Emacs which are quite logical, but which I usually find difficult to remember.) I might add that Joe is exceedingly easy to configue (no lisp!) besides coming with a choice of (once) popular bindings -- simply invoke it with one of its other names. You can reconfigure each of them so you can have several versions of the one you prefer or the configuration you like. Macros can do pipe stuff through any pipe-aware command you have on your system, so things get done exactly as they would on the command line and not with some internal sort-of-like. Despite the C in EMACS, it is exceedingly hard to configure, and some things really are impractical to change. If you want to do something else with control-X and control-c, you should be able to map those functions elsewhere. (To many people control-x, control-c, and control-v seem logically connected to cut, copy, and paste, respectively.) But just try it.

Re: Using META and DEL keys in console
the xterm keyboard are two different things. You should think long and hard about mapping the X keyboard - as there seems to be a lot of chaos in how applications and window managers fight over the keyboard and you don't really want to stir up that up any more than you can help. However, mapping the xterm so that applications that run in an xterm run just like they do in the console is a perfectly reasonable goal, and as I have mentioned can be done in the Xdefaults file. Moreover, these use more human-reasonable keynames rather than scancodes. If you must map the X keyboard (not just the xterm) you can use xmodmap to map the X keyboard either a line at time or by loading a whole file (xkeycaps can output a file suitable for loading with xmodmap). I think some applications will thwart you by accessing the keyboard directly. -- Lars Eighner [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.io.com/~eighner/index.html 8800 N IH35 APT 1191 AUSTIN TX 78753-5266 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Using META and DEL keys in console
On Tue, 1 Mar 2005, Alejandro Pulver wrote: Hello, I have a PS/2 PC-101 keyboard. I would like to use my META (ALT in my keyboard) key instead of ESC in console mode. META works fine in an xterm. I also would like to use DEL and others. The console keymaps are in /usr/share/syscons/keymaps. You can edit whichever keymap you are using with a flat ascii editor. To get a key to send the familiar ^?, enter del in the keymap. Not all applications, however, will do the expected thing with this, and you will have to consult the documentation for the individual applications to see whether they can be configured to do what you expect from a delete key. For backspace, bs, for meta, meta, esc for escape. Note that you can set the left and right Alt keys to different things, and that keypad Del/. key can be different from the Delete key. You almost certainly do not want to mess with terminfo. If you use the the bash shell, you can see what a key is currently sending by entering C-vkeystroke at the command prompt. I read something in the manual pages of terminfo(5), gettytab(5), etc. I tried the following options: :km:smm:dc: But I am having these thoubles: 1) My ALT key did not work and the DEL key acts as BACKSPACE (C-h), but I would like to use it as C-d. C-d is eot in the console keymap if you would rather have that than the ^? which is del. 2) Some strange thing happens with Emacs in console mode: when I press DEL, it is interpreted (literally) as C-h, and C-h is used as BACKSPACE. And C-d acts as DEL. Switching to the emacs keymap might help you. 3) Also DEL does not do anything in xterm. Make changes to xterm mappings in your .Xdefaults file, such as: !! xterm keymappings *XTerm*VT100.translations: #override \n\ KeyKP_Delete: string(0x7f) \n\ Naturally, you can make these strings whatever you want. Is there a more descriptive documentation of the terminal capabilities listed in terminfo(5)? Yes, you can google for many books worth of material, but it is not particularly germane to what you want to do if you are running a PC with a PC keyboard, and not trying to connect some ancient dumb terminal. Is there a standard configuration for PS/2 PC-101 keyboards? Unfortunately there are a lot of them. Does xterm use a different configuration from console terminals? Yes. X applications are meant to run on X, and X is meant to run on a variety of machines. Any relationship between xterm and the machine's native terminal is purely coincidental. (In particular, xterm is meant to be out of the box compatible with the very old VT100 standard - which never was native to any PC operating system.) You can get xterm and the console keyboard to behave mostly the same way - and get that way to be what you want - by editing .Xdefaults and the syscons keymap you are using (probably both). But that doesn't mean that every application will behave as you think it should. -- Lars Eighner [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.io.com/~eighner/index.html 8800 N IH35 APT 1191 AUSTIN TX 78753-5266 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: get local sendmail to use MX records
No, that is not the solution. It could be, but it's not what I want. An example: domain: domain.com domain.com is hosted on server B. The MX record for domain.com says that server A handles the mail of domain.com. So [EMAIL PROTECTED] should be handled by server A. Do you mean that your /bin/hostname show domain.com and not machine.domain.com? Anyway, you may have the option to bury the problem by using smart_host and mail_hub: like this in sendmail.mc: define(`SMART_HOST',`serverA.domain.com.')dnl define(`MAIL_HUB',`serverA.domain.com.')dnl -- Hilsen Lars This works, but now on server B there runs a script that sends an e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . What SHOULD happen is that sendmail on server B looks up the MX record for domain.com, sees that server A handles the mail for domain.com and sends the mail to server A. What happens is that sendmail recognizes the domain as hosted on that machine and uses localhost to deliver the mail. It looks for user gerard (in this example), which doesn't exist. I agree with you, a solution would be to set in the alias file of server B something like gerard: [EMAIL PROTECTED] . If this was about just one e-mailaddress, it wouldn't be a problem, but I'm actually talking about a little more then one address.

BSD finds the card when I plug it in, but it doesn't show up when I use the ifconfig command. Can anyone help me with this problem, so I can get it up and running. The system is a fresh installed FreeBSD 5.3 Thanks in advance Lars ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Wireless PCMIA problems
I've tryed to use the Windows driver, but it doesn't seem to work. I did the following: # cd /usr/src/sys/modules/ndis/ # make make install # cd ../if_ndis/ # cp /cdrom/driver/* ./ # ndiscvt -i ./netwpx96.inf -s ./wlpx96e.sys -o ndis_driver_data.h # make make install # kldload ndis # kldload if_ndis When running dmesg there are no ndis0 to be found in the list. The only data linked to the card is the following: pccard0: unknown card (manufacturer=0x0101, product=0x0696) at function 0 pccard0:CIS info: 3Com, 3CRSHPW_96 Wireless LAN PC Card, (null) Regards Lars On Tuesday 15 February 2005 18:04, you wrote: On Tuesday 15 February 2005 10:40 am, Lars Hederidder wrote: Hey, I have a 3Com 3CRSHPW_96 Wireless PCMIA card for my laptop.

Since the computers are necessary for both work and play, I consider running them to be electricity wisely used.

The problem is that del = bs, so if /etc/defaults/rc.conf has: keymap=us.iso.kbd then scan code 103, (the Delete key on a US 104 key keyboard,) will be a backspace key, and there will be no Delete key. Note that if: keymap=NO the backspace and Delete keys work as they should. But if a keymap is specified, (say, perhaps to map the Alt keys,) then you can't have a Delete key. How do you work around del = bs in the keymaps? The ANSI code for the stand-alone (not keypad) delete key is ESC-[-E. You should get that with fkey61. del should give you ^? If the cons is sending those, it is an application problem (including the shells as applications). Most uniod applications need some individual adjustment to get them to handle a proper delete properly. -- Lars Eighner [EMAIL PROTECTED] -finger for geek code- http://www.io.com/~eighner/index.html 8800 N IH35 APT 1191 AUSTIN TX 78753-5266 ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: I lost ten percent of disk place in each partition, why?
On Fri, 10 Dec 2004, Liu Haixiao wrote: Used + Avail = 0.92 * 1K-blocks, that means I lost 10% disk space, why? To put this in the simplest terms, the rest of the disk space is reserved for indexing the file system. All operating systems have some means of doing this (for example, the FAT - file allocation table - in microsoft file systems). For the same reason it is possible for a filesystem to be more than 100% full. FreeBSD will sacrifice the space reserved for indexing if it can. Of course, it is usually the case when a filesystem is more than 100% full that something has gone serious wrong. -- Lars Eighner [EMAIL PROTECTED] -finger for geek code- http://www.io.com/~eighner/index.html 8800 N IH35 APT 1191 AUSTIN TX 78753-5266 ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Problem is that it wont allow me to compile openoffice properly, i cant give an error message as its about 7hrs in i get the message and i've since made clean. I can't help you with the port, and perhaps no one can without some idea of the nature of the error. However, I can tell you something that will help you just about any time you need a record of an error message. Of course you can use script to record all the console stuff from every compile, but you probably won't do that, so assuming you compile at a virtual tty, do this: vidcontrol -PH /dev/ttyv# ~/save.txt where # is the number of the ttyv. -P dumps the video buffer in human readable form and -H makes it include the whole scrollback buffer, not just the visible screen. You can do this from the ttyv where the disaster occurred, but generally I switch to another one. Of course, you can make the filespec anything you want rather than ~/save.txt . Form the habit of doing this every time something goes wrong. It will make it much easier to get people to help you, to make bug reports, or to google for similar problem. Does anyone know if it is broken? or how i can get an openoffice release installed, as 1.0 is apparentlyu broken according to ports and 1.1 wont compile sucessfully. -- Lars Eighner [EMAIL PROTECTED] -finger for geek code- http://www.io.com/~eighner/index.html 8800 N IH35 APT 1191 AUSTIN TX 78753-5266 ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: three questions
On Tue, 30 Nov 2004, Alexander Bubnov wrote: Hi! Could you answer my questions, please? 1) When I halt or reboot FreeBSD 5.3 I always receive following: Syncing disks vnodes remaining... 4 3 3 1 1 0 done Is it OK? What does it mean? Yes, it is okay, and in fact is really necessary. Disk writes are very time consuming compared to writing to memory. So many times the system does not actually write to disk, but writes a memory image of the file. It keeps track of where the latest version of the file is in case, as often happens, it has something to do with the file it has just written (as a memory image). Eventually, of course, the file has to be written to disk, and in particular, since files in memory will be lost on powerdown or reboot, it is essential that the files on disk be brought into *sync* with the memory images at such times. If you have ever had a power outage when you are working on the computer, you may have noticed that you lost many recent changes you have made to files - (and in addition, may have mess in the filesystem requiring fsck). This is because the working versions of the files were not rendered to disk before the power went out. So, in short, syncing disks is a good thing. You can see man sync for information on the sync utility (not the one used for reboot) and references to other sync functions. Although the sync utility is does not set the whole system in complete order as for reboot, it is a good idea to run it if you are going to do something you suspect will crash the system. 2) When I download something from the Internet for a long time (around 9 hours) I always receive 3 strange letters (unfortunately, I deleted third letter, sorry) from my OS (FreeBSD any versions), see below. What for? What happen? Why do I receive them? So far as I can tell these are the normal periodic maintence reports. Do you usually power down the system when you are not using it? If so, that is why you do not get these reports on a regular basis. See /etc/crontab for when these reports are scheduled to run (and man 5 crontab if you have difficulty understanding crontab). It is not a matter of your downloading anything from the Internet, but that your system is up and running at the appointed times. As I say, I suspect you power down your system except when you have long downloads, and that is why you have come to associate long downloads with receiving the reports. 3) I change resolution for consoles as vidcontrol -g 100x37 VESA_800x600 green. Can I change rate? How to do it? I don't know what rate you mean. -- Lars Eighner [EMAIL PROTECTED] -finger for geek code- http://www.io.com/~eighner/index.html 8800 N IH35 APT 1191 AUSTIN TX 78753-5266 ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi, i want some apache NameVirtualHost behind a Paketfilter based on ipf, placed in two subnets. This router has two Cards one in the private net, one in the public. So far i just forward port 80 and 443 into my private net 192.168.2.0, but every request ends up on apaches rootlevel, NameVirtualHost directive is useless. So, how to forward http(s):// requests through the Paketfilter matching the right VirtualHost? Maybe i've thought in a wrong direction, so far. Just some little hints should be enough.

CRON won't send mail anymore.
Hi! My problem is that cron won't send out mail, anymore regardless of what I set the MAILTO-variable to in my crontab. This worked as expected before, but I can't remember what happend around the time it stopped. The system is FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE, and regular sending of mail like echo foo |mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] works without problems. It's only cron that appears not to supply the target email as specified in MAILTO. What is wrong here? I don't really know how to debug this. Can crontabs be executed verbosely somehow?

Re: 5.2-rc1 Install and USB mouse problems

If I use the same cd and rerecord it with mkisofs -b /cdrom/floppies/boot.flp /cdrom Ah, so the controller isn't picking up non-emulated cds. If its a separate controller you might check for a firmware update, or if its integrated check for a system BIOS update. The systems I have with embedded 2940s boot non-emulated discs fine. It's an separate PCI card and it has the latest Adaptec BIOS 2.20. I've tracked it down. The problem was induced due to mess in the boot loader and BIOS disk order. The smart boot loader was not loaded from the first BIOS disk (ad0) but from the first SCSI disk. So it thinks the ad disk was BIOS HD3 .. After fixing that all runs well out of the box! Sorry! Cool. Yes thats really fine. I've just trying to migrate my config and scripts from 4.9 to 5.2 so I'm able to fix the xperfmon3 compile problem. However, the usb mouse didn't work.

Even the FreeBSD Mall 5.X CD's don't boot, but the 4.X do. - My installation isn't runable, cause the kernel don't find the rootfs Since you have FreeBSD installed twice and you are spanning IDE and SCSI disks, its entirely possible you're booting the wrong loader and its getting confused, or loader itself is getting confused because of the multiple FreeBSD installs. You should make sure that the 'rootdev' variable in the loader is set properly before jumping into the kernel. You can set it by dropping to the loader OK prompt and typing set rootdev=diskXs1a where X is the disk number, printed when loader starts up. Some BIOSes have lots of issues with booting across IDE and SCSI disks in the same system. I've tracked it down. The problem was induced due to mess in the boot loader and BIOS disk order.

How to make a linux binary run on FreeBSD
I have a Savage/IX agp card. Savage/IX was developed for laptops so of its three possible output devices (LCD, CRT, and several flavors of TV), by default it assumes that is attached to a 640x480 LCD. Naturally this produces undesirable results when a CRT is attached instead. S3 provided a utility (s3switch) which allows choose which output device or combination of output devices are attached. This utility works fine with RedHat 8.0. It runs from the command line or within X. When I run it from the command line in FreeBSD 4.8-RC with linux-compatibility in my kernel, the S3 utility fails thusly: vm86() failed return = 0xffda eax = 0x4f14 ebx = 0x0003 ecx = 0x0001 edx = 0x esi = 0x edi = 0x ebp = 0x eip = 0x4898 cs = 0xc000 esp = 0x0ffa ss = 0x1000 ds = 0x es = 0x fs = 0x gs = 0x eflags = 0x3200 cs:ip = [ fb fc 80 fc 0e 74 48 80 fc 0c 74 46 80 fc 0d 74 ] Can't change device (vm86 failure) And this message is broadcast: linux: syscall vm86old is obsoleted or not implemented. Tim Roberts has a similar utility, also called s3switch, distributed as a linux binary and as source code. When I attempt to run this binary from the command line, I get: Could not set device (vm86 failure) Devices attached: CRT LCD TV Devices active:CRT LCD Current TV format is NTSC And the same broadcast message as above. I have not run this binary in RedHat 8.0, but I assume it will work there as well as the S3 utility does. Naturally, the source code will not compile on FreeBSD as it includes a number of headers which don't exist in FreeBSD, and according to Roberts' web page the utility depends on vm86, from which I surmise there is no simple way to make it compile and run on FreeBSD, with or without linux compatibility. Am I overlooking something that would allow either of the binaries to work on FreeBSD? -- Lars Eighner -finger for geek code- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.io.com/~eighner/ The US Constitution wasn't perfect, But it was better than what we have now.

Re: FreeBSD 4.7-REL-p3 and an IPsec connection to Linksys BEFVP41
On 2/19/2003 8:39 PM, George Hartzell wrote: I'd like to set up an IPsec connection between my laptop running FreeBSD 4.7-REL-p3 and a Linksys BEFVP41 router w/ built in IPsec capability. I've found a number of sites w/ information on setting up ipsec between a pair of FreeBSD machines, including: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ipsec.html http://www.freebsddiary.org/ipsec-tunnel.php http://www.daemonnews.org/200101/ipsec-howto.html http://www.bsdtoday.com/2002/April/Features671.html But none that talk about getting FreeBSD's IPsec talking to anything non-FreeBSD. All of the methods are based on setting up a gif tunnel and passing the packets over that. Not really. There are a number of different ways to set this up, and only one (valid) one uses gif tunnels: 1. Use IPsec transport mode. The handbook (1st link) explains how to set this up. 2. Use IPsec tunnel mode. Again, the handbook describes the setup, so does the bsdtoday article. (Note that these two do not use IPIP gif tunnels!) 3. Use an IPIP gif tunnel and IPsec transport mode, as described in draft-touch-ipsec-vpn, and the daemonnews article. This is an alternative to IPsec tunnel mode that has advantages when running dynamic routing - you don't seem to, so you should stick to vanilla IPsec, esp. since you only control one end. You do NOT want to follow the freebsddiary article, which sets up parallel IPIP gif tunnels and IPsec tunnel mode SAs. It abuses the duplicate tunnels for routing, and can result in subtle interactions that can make your traffic go silently unencrypted. (I've contacted the author a long time ago, but he doesn't seem to belive in fixing diary entries.) I've tried a number of variations on the recommended recipes, and at best I can watch the isakmp packet going from the laptop towards the router and get see an icmp packet back from the router that suggests the the gif tunnel isn't what it wants to see (sadly, I didn't save the exact message, but can recreate it if it's important enough). Without a lot more information about your configuration, we can only guess at the issues. So, the quick question is, has anyone set up a FreeBSD laptop as a road warrior to an IPsec router? I'd appreciate any pointers. All three aproaches above can be made to work, as explained by the tutorials you cite. The question is, which one is supported by your Linksys box?

How about text editors like nedit? Hopefully not too, too offtopic. back in the olden days with DOS, you'd hold down the alt key and punch in the ASCII code into the numeric keypad. it still works with winXP, but never tried it on freebsd. First of all, there is no such thing as ASCII 159. ASCII is a seven-bit standard. So what you get for character 159 depends upon which eight-bit charater set you are using. In ISO-8859-1, the lower case u with umlaut is character 252. Entering non-keyboard characters is, of course, a function of your editor. In pico (the native pine editor), you can hold down alt and enter three numbers from the key pad. If you have entered something from 000 through 255, the character will appear when you release the alt key. Most other editors have ways of doing it, although they differ since Unix-like software tends to assume terminals don't have alt keys. This doesn't solve the main problem, however, which is, unless you MIME your mail, you really don't know what the character will look like to the person who receives the mail. The nearest thing to a default 8-bit standard is iso-8859-1, but since you think 159 is an umlaut u, you obviously aren't using it. -- Lars Eighner [EMAIL PROTECTED] -finger for geek code- http://www.io.com/~eighner/index.html 600 E 53RD ST APT 119 AUSTIN TX 78751 To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Hi
and NO. The notation is the desired one for the ports mechanism!
In reply to Kevin Golding who wrote:
Someone, quite probably Steven Lake, once wrote:
Someone mentioned to me that this is supposed to come with the
app gettext. But I'm not sure.
Well the ports Makefile for apcupsd contains the line:
LIB_DEPENDS=intl.4:${PORTSDIR}/devel/gettext
But the pkg-plist for gettext doesn't mention intl.4, the closest is
lib/libintl.so.4
It looks like the port for apcupsd may need updating.

BTW, I used:

did not contain your indicated file.

Anybody know how to fix this? I've never seen this error before

Many reasons, all of which people can only speculate on until they see your code, a description of your setup and experimental procedure, and a commented packet dump.

RE: Cannot start bind in samdbox?
Stacey, Do you have the directory structure right in your sandbox? I have bind chrooted in /chroot/bind and my command to start it there is : /chroot/bind/named -u bind -g bind -t /chroot/bind -d 1 You have -t /etc/namedb/s/ so you have to have the named binary and /etc/namedb/named.conf within the /etc/namedb/s directory structure. See http://www.psionic.com/papers/bindbsd.html for a HOW-TO.
