Couldn't all BSDs restructure the disklabel in -current so that we would have the same base for the next major release ? Then its only a question of drivers to suppot UFS2 or not. But then compatibility would be there for some time ... Incompatible to UFS's like from Sun I think we are already, so we don't have to honour them. Remember a current thread in german BSD group where somebody complained about FreeBSD - mounting a Sun filesystem r/w - destroyed the filesystem. Luckily he could recover using fsck -b 32.

Well I still prefer to "design" my filesystems no matter how big disks are. So I have better control of what needs backup using dump and when I need to restore parts of my disk its also quicker and more reliable to restore a subtree. Also I'd gues that its still valid that less file movement in root filesystem increases robustness if you have a power outage. Same true for other important filesystems. Also it makes it easier to upgrade a system, since you only nail / and /usr, if the rest is in other filesystems. Also its easier to newfs "/" and "/usr", if "/var", "/usr/local" and "/usr/X11R6", "/home", ... are on differnet filesystems. Also you can increase system performance by choosing bigger block and frag size in filesystems with bigger files on average. If you have a news filesystem you perhaps want to finetune settings of filesystem to have more inodes available ... You see, I think there is still demand for using many filesystems if you are open minded for having the best support in every "shitty" situation ;-) Andreas /// -- Andreas Klemm - Powered by FreeBSD 6 Need a magic printfilter today ? -> http://www.apsfilter.org/ ___ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

disklabel differences FreeBSD, DragonFly
Hi,
DragonFly uses another disklabel as FreeBSD I discovered.
Made a test installation of their 1.6 yesterday.
Later I wanted to mount the dfly filesystems on FreeBSD 6.1,
of course still my main Unix ;-) But it wasn't possible.
The disklabel couldn't be read and as a result devfs didn't
create the devices under /dev.
So I compared sys/disklabel.h on the 2 BSDs and
discovered a difference at the very beginning of the struct.
I'm not sure for what exact purpose Matt uses his new
pack identifier. Does somebody have a clue ???
Is this perhaps something useful that FreeBSD could also use/need ?
Or at least adopt, to be compatible if it doesn't hurt too much ???
Would be cool to be able to mount fs's across BSDs.
Our FreeBSD 6.1 one:
struct disklabel {
u_int32_t d_magic; /* the magic number */
u_int16_t d_type; /* drive type */
u_int16_t d_subtype;/* controller/d_type specific */
char d_typename[16]; /* type name, e.g. "eagle" */
char d_packname[16]; /* pack identifier */
/* disk geometry: */
DragonFly:
struct disklabel {
u_int32_t d_magic; /* the magic number */
u_int16_t d_type; /* drive type */
u_int16_t d_subtype;/* controller/d_type specific */
char d_typename[16]; /* type name, e.g. "eagle" */
/*
* d_packname contains the pack identifier and is returned when
* the disklabel is read off the disk or in-core copy.
* d_boot0 and d_boot1 are the (optional) names of the
* primary (block 0) and secondary (block 1-15) bootstraps
* as found in /boot. These are returned when using
* getdiskbyname(3) to retrieve the values from /etc/disktab.
*/
union {
charun_d_packname[16]; /* pack identifier */
struct {
char *un_d_boot0; /* primary bootstrap name */
char *un_d_boot1; /* secondary bootstrap name */
} un_b;
} d_un;
#define d_packname d_un.un_d_packname
#define d_boot0 d_un.un_b.un_d_boot0
#define d_boot1 d_un.un_b.un_d_boot1
/* disk geometry: */

Please no ;-) Although vim has some nice features its definitively different to standard vi behaviour, which can really bitch you in some situations. Most favourite example: I personally still get mad if it comes to the "u" undo key. Standard vi lets you toggle your last change by hitting "u". So I'm used that it doesn't hurt to type the "u" key multiple times. This is very usefull to let your eye browse through a complex change to make an "a/b" comparison. If you do that in vim, then you loose as many last changes as you hit "u" repeatedly. And if you did many changes you loose a serious amount of work. >From my experience you cannot recover from such a mistake. Therefore standard vi is for me much superior, since with it I can get my job done in a reliable manner without fancy side effects. I don't want to start an editor flamewar. I know many people who start to like vi starting with vim. And editors are an issue of taste and experience in use ... Its only a thing to take into consideration whats better. To learn standard vi, thats available everywhere. Or to have the same situation as with emacs ... Vim is still kind of an exot for me. That its standard vi on nearly all Linuxes around still doesn't qualify it enough as standard vi...

So you have a DHCP server in your network.
You can configure the interface in FreeBSD, so that it makes
use of the DHCP service. To get ip address, network mask,
default route, DNS servers automatically.
All you need to do is to configure the interface in
/etc/rc.conf with
="DHCP"
You may also configure everything static for your machine
if you know, if there are some IPs in your network reserved
for static IPs.
Typically Servers get static IPs and DNS entries on a network.
If you are working with a laptop and have to use different
settings for your system, lets say in one network DHCP, in
another location you need a certain static ip, then you
can have a look at the port sysutils/personality.
It helps you to add system files to kind of a "flat file
repository". Then you can save these file under a name
of your choice.
You simply restore the settings, whenever you change to
a location which needs different settings and reboot.
Another method is to put it very early in a system
startup file. But this method is tricky. Not too early
and not too late in the system boot process ... It needs
surely some fiddeling and trial and error ...

Re: need hints to recover lost FreeBSD partition entries in MBR ...
fdisk -u did the trick to interactively edit the partition table. Confusing was then, that the previous FreeBSD partitions /dev/ad4s3d and /dev/ad4s4d were not present anymore. I had to use /dev/ad4s3c and /dev/ad4s4. But now I luckily was able to mount my old filesystems. Am now in the process of cleaning up.

Thanks for the hint. It turns out for me that for some strange
reason the FreeBSD Slice 4 doesnt start exactly on a Cylinder
boundary :-( DragonFly or Partition Magic, one of these tools
must be the culprit.

217528802/255/63=13540.54
Although I try to make the previous slice 3 a little larger
sysinstall doesnt allow me to make the slice greater than
up to the partition boundary.
So I end up with that, see above
217520100/255/63=13540.00
Using sysinstall I cannot create a slightly wrong but working
partition table to access my data again.
Question: What can I use now to be able to re-create Slice 4
starting not exactly at partition boundary but instead
at Sector 217528802
I tried fdisk but cannot enter something like interactive
mode.
All it tells me is this:

Thanks a lot for the answers. I had a look at whowatch, is a nice tool. I did it with multiple windows.

how to monitor remote users shell activities best ? watch / snp / ...
Is there a freebsd tool that shows you in realtime, which users are logged in from remote using which pty port ? So to say something like while true do clear; w; sleep 10 done Preferable as X11 application. Cool would be options like: - log the snooped data - show their running processes - click to pty to fire up xterm with "watch -X " to snoop their current traffic. Background, I help an open source project and now somebody is on my local machine, to troubleshoot something, and I only know this person since a day ... so to say not well. Then the snp option came to my mind and the question, if perhaps somebody had done such a monitor for similar purposes. Remote vendor access and such things come to my mind. Of course I would ask him if its o.k. for him, that I can snoop his terminal traffic, better to play with open cards.

DNS cache sounds like it caches DNS records after a successfull
DNS query, right ?
The problem at my clients project was, that the DNS server
a) wasn't reachable from time to time because they played
around with a pix firewall in a cat6k
b) these particular OOB IPs and the sun's IPs were not in
DNS database
So ... I assume a dns *cache* wouldn't have brought any better
functionality. We still would have needed a functionality in
sshd, to turn off reverse lookup entirely ...
The suns have already been secured by firewalls so no real need
for this reverse lookup feature.

Yes and I really needed this functionality in a project for 12 Suns...
But it didn't work as expected from the description.
And for me a functionality like being able to prevent reverse lookup
would be completely logical ...
Result was to create about 20 /etc/hosts entries on every sun, to
prevent this 60 seconds timeout for our Out Of Band login via VPN
and from sun to sun etc etc

With fsck -b 32 you use the alternate super block to repair the filesystem just in case the superblock in at the usual place is damaged. After that the filesystem is completely repaired ... Of course the previously damages superblock ... fsck does the same things only that you choosed the first copy of the superblock, that is always on block 32.

What about "duplicating and updating" /, /var and /usr onto a 2nd disk ? This could be automatically done by a shellscript. You only need to fine tune /mirror/etc/fstab to boot from the correct disk after a such a "backup/mirror" run If you install the freebsd boot manager you can even easily test booting from the 2nd drive without having to make special settings in the forth boot loader.

Two have a real "broadcast firewall" you should avoid proxy arp. Figure out, you want to get the hosts in a segment and ping to the broadcast address. In a normal routed segment without proxy-arp you only the the station answering, which are in the segment. Turning on proxy arp you also get answers from machines from other connected lans...

Re: lpd woes ... missing feature that different printer share same spool
Hi David ! Great, thanks for looking at it / for the patch. I'll put it into the apsfilter FAQ and the INSTALL file.

lpd woes ... missing feature that different printer share same spool
Hi !
lpd refuses to startup, if you have multiple entries in /etc/printcap
that use the same spooldir.
My new apsfilter 5.1.1 has the new feature, that you can print in
high, medium and low density by simply typing:
lpr -P{low,med,high}
For that purpose I need three more entries in printcap, that differ
in the name of the input filter, since apsfilter features like
print density are invoked by calling apsfilter (the input filter)
by different names, but share the same spooldir.
But this happens when starting up lpd:
root{154} /usr/src lpd
chkprintcap: lp8 and lp7 share the same spool,
/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-a4-auto-color
chkprintcap: lp7 and lp6 share the same spool,
/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-a4-auto-color
chkprintcap: lp6 and lp share the same spool,
/var/spool/lpd/stcolor-a4-auto-color
lpd: 3 errors in printcap file, exiting
Would it be safe, to modify lpd to tolerate this and only printing
out a warning ... ?!

security: what does OpenBSD have, that FreeBSD doesn't have...
Hi ! Am currently discussing FreeBSD vs. OpenBSD in private e-mail. What make OpenBSD so "secure" ? Or can this kind of security be reproduced with FreeBSD ports ? I think of tools like: bjorb - secure TCP relay software, http://www.hitachi-ms.co.jp/bjorb/ bro - Bro is a system for detecting Network Intruders in real-time by the guys that brought you tcpdump, libpcap, and flex cfs - This is CFS, Matt Blaze's Cryptographic File System. It provides transparent encryption and decryption of selected directory trees. It is implemented as a user-level NFS server and thus does not require any kernel modifications. Under FreeBSD, the mount command for the CFS tree must include "-o port=3049,nfsv2". fwtk- The TIS Firewall Toolkit is a set of programs and configuration practices designed to facilitate the building of network firewalls. skip- IP-Level Cryptography, Secure every application with one protocol. http://skip.incog.com stunnel - The stunnel program is designed to work as SSL encryption wrapper between remote client and local (inetd-startable) or remote server. stunnel can be used to add SSL functionality to commonly used inetd daemons like POP-2, POP-3 and IMAP servers without any changes in the programs' code. tcp_wrapper - With this package you can monitor and filter incoming requests for the SYSTAT, FINGER, FTP, TELNET, RLOGIN, RSH, EXEC, TFTP, TALK, and other network services. vscan - McAfee's evaluation VirusScan for FreeBSD, provides immediate scanning of MS-DOS files hosted on FreeBSD Unix systems. Could somebody please explain ? -- Andreas Klemm http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/~andreas http://www.freebsd.org/~fsmp/SMP/SMP.html powered by Symmetric MultiProcessor FreeBSD To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
