 I'd support it if anyone actually has any credible evidence that such
 attacks have ever occured. Or if there is are plausible ways to attack
 that don't require someone to sniff and inject into a connection in
 which the victim is participating (if you can do that, you can do much
 worse).

The original message of the old thread mentioned:
http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=4186+0+archive/2001/freebsd-sec

Darren Reed's post to BugTraq implied, IIRC, that an attacker can
kill (or slow down) a server if he requests a large file with low MSS.

These instructions are 386 instructions.  What we need to see are the
contraints (the stuff after the actual instructions with colons in them) to see
if it is somehow using Pentium Pro+ specific registers.  And actually, just for

It claims to be family 6 via cpuid at least.

Looks like rather silly code to double the value at x + 124.  I say silly casue
it clears carry and then does a addcl.  However, since CF is zero, this is the
same as doing an addl.  Since it is just doubling the value, a shl would make
more sense (and only be 1 instruction.)

left, it shits in the carry flag instead of 0), thus I would do:

shl (%0),1\n
#if (N = 2)
rcl 4(%0),1\n
#endif

etc. using a single rcl for the rest of the shifts.

Using multiple instructions might be useful if you did multiple loads to
different destination registers by interleaving movl's and adcl's, and
alternating temporary registers to try and use the multiple pipelines on
Pentiums and better.  Then again, these instructions might not work well for
that.  *shrug*  Or perhaps if it uses suitable temporary registers, this might
be doing all the loads in one pipeline and the adcl's in the others to get a
jumpstart on each mov.  I dunno. :-P

:Let me tell you a story about these drives.  The first, the 2040, is a
:duel drive whos age is beyond counting.  At one point commodore decided
:that the 2040 format was creating errors (It had one extra sector on 
:several tracks).  So, they modified the format slightly by taking out that
:sector.  That is why the OLD 2040 has more storage than the NEW 1541/2031/
:4040.  Now, Commodore tells us that the 1541, 2031, and 4040 have the same
:disk format.  Bryce pointed out to me one day as we were muling over the
:hundreds of errors (not to mention the bad programming style) of the 1541
:DOS, that the 4040 uses a different spacing between sectors.  Oh JUST GREAT...
:I suggest that to keep read errors at a minimum, you not write on a disk 
:using a 1541 that was formatted on a 4040.  
:
:Guess what!  Commodore did not write a new DOS for the 1541 or the 2031. 
:In fact, the used the 4040's DOS and attempted to take out all the references
:to the second drive.  Well, they just didn't get them all and that is why
:you get that DRIVE NOT READY error sometimes.  Their @replace bug was a 
:classic, and that was one of the first thing Bryce fixed in his 1541 FLASH.
:
:But the story does not end there.  Word has it that two people worked on 
:the original DOS for the 1541/2031/4040/2040.  One wrote the drive interface,
:and one wrote the communications protocal.  Word also has it that the two
:hardly confered with each other at all... Hence the slowness of drive.
:
:You have to be an expert on 6502 to be able to understand the drive's DOS,
:considering how lousy the guy programmed it.  Why commodore used a modem-
:speed interface with an intelligent disk drive I could not guess.
:
:I myself am a PET person.  The best transfer speed I've been able to come
:up with a PET  2031 has been 53KBytes/sec ... With sector loading, I've
:been able to get a skew factor of 3 and a 130 block load in 6.5 sec.  Bryce
:has been able to turn the rinky-dink serial interface into exactly the same
:speed... Were both stuck on the skew factor.  I think that's pretty good
:considering the controller Commodore used for the disk (It consists of a
:micro-processor, 2K RAM, 16K ROM, and 2 6522's.  None of these, by the way,
:are dedicated as a floppy controller).
:
:And now we come to the (quote unquote) Build in RS-232C.  The C64 does it all
:in software, and the outputs are +5/GND rather than standard -12/12V.  Baud
:rates below 2400 work fine.  Anything after that will not work well unless
:you do it by hand.  Commodore has this nack of putting everything on the 
:interrupt, you see; They put the disk-controller of the 1541... on the
:interrupt.  I'm not kidding, to request a sector you wrote some crap into
:some memory and had to wait for a timer interupt to occur before the 
:interrupt service routine would catch it and get/write the sector.  In
:anycase, I'm getting off the subject;  Commodore has the modem on the 
:interrupt.  So as long as you don't use the disk drive or printer, you
:can use the modem.  You can either recieve or transmit (but not both at
:the same time).  In other words, commodore blew it again in terms of the
:C64.
:
:
:You might ask if there is anything good about the commodore 64. Well, the
:graphics are good and the sound is fantastic.  Don't let anyone tell you
:the sound is the pits... I've heard very un-computer like voice synthesis
:using only that single solitary SID.  The graphics are good, considering
:that the C64 is only a small home computer.  I particulary like the raster
:interrupt which makes it all worth while.  You probably have heard that at
:any time the graphics chip can take 40cc from the processor.  Well, using
:the raster interrupt, Bryce was able to sync the two and to a VERY FAST
:trasfer over the original serial lines sync'd with the drive to within
:3cc (On my PET, I used to use a single sync signal to sync the block transfers,
:Giving me a 32KByte/sec ifc with 8cc tolerances.  Bryce suggested a double
:sync to sync the sync, so to speak, which is why I can do 56KBytes/sec over

IPSEC with Cisco VPN 3000?

The Cisco wants a group name and group password, and I
can't tell how this maps to the racoon implementation of IKE keys.

 [lots of snippage]

Did this original question ever get answered?  I think what you need is just
-mcpu=i686 on the (g)cc command line.  Or, given that other discussion
seemed to indicate that a 686 isn't needed for these instructions,
-mcpu=pentiumpro should do it.  If there's any chance the code needs to run
on older CPUs, go for the lower setting, as I believe this option affects
the overall codegen and optimization.

 The Cisco wants a group name and group password, and I
 can't tell how this maps to the racoon implementation of IKE keys.

They have a linux client available for download if you have CCO access
(and access to download 3DES software from them). That might give you some
answers.

Not sure if you can connect as a vpngroup member without their client.

  I'd support it if anyone actually has any credible evidence that such
  attacks have ever occured. Or if there is are plausible ways to attack
  that don't require someone to sniff and inject into a connection in
  which the victim is participating (if you can do that, you can do much
  worse).
 
 The original message of the old thread mentioned:
 http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=4186+0+archive/2001/freebsd-sec
 urity/20010715.freebsd-security
 
 Darren Reed's post to BugTraq implied, IIRC, that an attacker can
 kill (or slow down) a server if he requests a large file with low MSS.

I took part in that discussion and there was no mention of real
exploits. And TCP MSS is not the same thing as the PMTU (though they
can be related).

As I pointed out in that thread, there are much more devistating TCP
attacks to worry about that are still threats like Daytona attacks.

Issues with /stand sysinstall

2002-01-07 Thread Michael R. Wayne


Tried -questions, no response.  Verified issue on 4.5 PRERELEASE.

Going to
   /usr/src/release/sysinstall
and doing 
   make all
   make install

builds a sysinstall which seems not to include the functionality
needed to run as /stand/sh, /stand/fsck and friends.  What is the
correct way to build and install all of /stand?

As part of the release process.  It's a bit tricky. :)  In current sysinstall
has moved to src/usr.sbin/sysinstall and lives in /usr/sbin/sysinstall since
it's just another program.  /stand is basically copied off the boot floppy or
CD during the installation process.  It's meant to basically be a safety net
in case you hose your filesystem so badly you don't have /bin/sh, etc.

Think they have the code to the C64 supermon assembler? I spend 3 evenings 
poking it in from Compute! and now I can't find the cassette anywhere.

Why not search for it?  I got 35 hits on +c64 +supermon.

If it even has LAN support, you should be able to play it over the 
internet. Just get creative with vtun, tap and ng_bridge =)

 Yes, Google is indeed great.  Now everyone can go back and find my

Yea, but aren't you STILL posting to alt.life.sucks? I'v move on to

I have that somewhere.  I also have the Compute! with it in
it.  8-).  If you want to download it, you can get it from
here:

I also have Aztec C for the C64.  I'd give you a copy, but
that would violate the license, since mine's paid for... 8^p.

http://www.ffd2.com/fridge/

Is a pretty good C64 resource... see also:

...it has all the Waterloo stuff, among other things (schematics,

I remember drooling over the first Commodore Pet (the one with the

up at the time.

When my school bought its 3016 (1980?) it was a revelation.  I had seen
the big orange ICL mainframe where my dad worked, a room full of big
cabinets and whirring disks  tapes, but this was a computer on a desk!

If anyone's interested, I've got a 2nd edition of Nick Hampshire's 'The Pet
Revealed'

That, and Zaks' book on programming the 6502, certainly fuelled my
enthusiasm and many hours with a switch connected to the NMI line and
the MLM.

I'm still fascinated by computer schematics, and dabbling with the
hardware.  ;-)


Thankfully Google is missing many of my early postings.

Internet?? UUCP dialup please ;-)

..!mcvax!philapd!wilko :-) I just found out that my first
posting in Oct 89 is about the GNU project. Go figure.

In those days I built my own SWTPc/09 clone system, running TSC FLEX
and later TSC UniFlex. I still have it! Started off with 2 floppys,
later grew a Miniscribe 3012, 10Mb @ 155ms average access time. 1Mbyte RAM.
Motorola 6809 at 2 MHz.  2 years ago it still ran (OK, it blew 
a electrolytic cap in the HD power supply but that was an easy fix).
