Re: Puzzling NATD problem - revisited
Thank you both for your answers. The campus network uses public ip address space, sorry for not including that information. The fact why I included it in between the internet and the natd gateway is that if there's some weirdness in it, I somehow have to compensate for it in FreeBSD. As I stated, Linux users haven't had any problems with nat in the same network. Even I had working nat in the same network two years ago (on FreeBSD 4.1-4.3 I think) so I'm trying to pinpoint the cause for this extremely peculiar behaviour.

That's not correct. I've seen two layers of NATD work just fine in an office building environment where the gateway to the office was natting ips to the individual clients, and then clients were natting again to hang multiple machines off the one ip they got from the office gateway.

amnesiac disklabel on RAID logical drive
I posted about this a few weeks ago but didn't get many responses and I really have to fix it now. Somewhere in the course of using sysinstall it blew away part of my disklabel. This box has an AMI RAID controller on it which I want to replace. (not least because of its horrible error handling - ie not being able to delete a logical drive without replacing the failed disk first - catch-22) It also has an embedded Adaptec SCSI interface, but I can't even partition or backup to that drive while I've got this disklabel problem on the RAID controller. On other boxes I have with standard SCSI interfaces, the disklabel for the whole device pretty much matches the disklabel for the FreeBSD slice. But I don't know how this should look for the RAID controller. There are 2 logical drives defined on the RAID but one is failed/offline. Pertinent snippets from dmesg: amr0: AMI MegaRAID mem 0xfc00-0xfc00 irq 9 at device 7.1 on pci2 amr0: Series 490 Firmware H79N, BIOS 2.10, 32MB RAM ahc0: Adaptec aic7896/97 Ultra2 SCSI adapter port 0x2000-0x20ff mem 0xf410-0xf4100fff irq 2 at device 12.0 on pci0 aic7896/97: Ultra2 Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 32/253 SCBs ahc1: Adaptec aic7896/97 Ultra2 SCSI adapter port 0x2400-0x24ff mem 0xf4101000-0xf4101fff irq 2 at device 12.1 on pci0 aic7896/97: Ultra2 Wide Channel B, SCSI Id=7, 32/253 SCBs amrd0: MegaRAID logical drive on amr0 amrd0: 8714MB (17846272 sectors) RAID 1 (optimal) amrd1: MegaRAID logical drive on amr0 amrd1: 8714MB (17846272 sectors) RAID 0 (offline) Mounting root from ufs:/dev/amrd0s2a da0 at ahc0 bus 0 target 3 lun 0 da0: FUJITSU MAH3091MC 0114 Fixed Direct Access SCSI-4 device da0: 80.000MB/s transfers (40.000MHz, offset 127, 16bit), Tagged Queueing Enabled da0: 8715MB (17850264 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T C) If I try to read the disklabel directly from the whole disk, I get this error: # disklabel -r amrd0 disklabel: bad pack magic number (label is damaged, or pack is unlabeled) But if I specify the slice, it seems OK: # disklabel -r amrd0s2 # /dev/amrd0s2: type: ESDI disk: amrd0s2 label: flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 63 tracks/cylinder: 255 sectors/cylinder: 16065 cylinders: 1092 sectors/unit: 17542980 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # milliseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds drivedata: 0 8 partitions: #size offsetfstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 40960004.2BSD 2048 1638497 # (Cyl.0 - 25*) b: 1024000 409600 swap# (Cyl. 25*- 89*) c: 175429800unused0 0 # (Cyl.0 - 1091) e: 2097152 14336004.2BSD 2048 1638489 # (Cyl. 89*- 219*) f: 2097152 35307524.2BSD 2048 1638489 # (Cyl. 219*- 350*) g: 11915076 56279044.2BSD 2048 1638489 # (Cyl. 350*- 1091*) However if I attempt to read it from the in-core copy for the whole device, it says it's amnesiac (doing it for the FreeBSD slice only looks OK like above): # disklabel amrd0 # /dev/amrd0: type: SCSI disk: amnesiac label: fictitious flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 63 tracks/cylinder: 255 sectors/cylinder: 16065 cylinders: 1110 sectors/unit: 17846272 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # milliseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds drivedata: 0 8 partitions: #size offsetfstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] c: 178462720unused0 0 # (Cyl.0 - 1110*) So I'm not sure what the disklabel for amrd0 should look like - certainly it seems it's not as simple as copying the disklabel from amrd0s2 like I can sometimes do with a non-RAID system.

Openoffice problem runing as normal user
Hi, Im having som problems with Openoffice. I have compiled it from ports and that is not any problem. I have installed it and runed it as root with out any problem. I by installing it I mean runing openoffice-setup. Make install also works fine offcourse. And I have runed it as root and there is no problem. How ever when i try to run make install-user/openoffice-setup the installation program lanuches and it works just fine. But I can't see any text or pictures in the run setup program. The window's pops up but there is nothing in them. And i can't do anything because I have to guess what it says to me. Are there anybody that have the same problem or have any solution on this problem? I don't think this will help if I install it as a package or? I don't have any idea what kind of problem this might be. But could It be some kind of permission problem? Any way thanks for an answer.

Take a look at the net/mpd port; it needs Netgraph either built into the

Re: Dual-Homed
I have tried setting up a static_route in rc.conf for iface2 but no joy there.. And I agree that it sounds like a routing/default gateway problem but I cant seem to figure out how to fix it.. I'm thinking that the dhcp is setting up a default gateway for both interfaces instead of setting it up for just iface1 and when I try to reach the internet from iface2 it tries to go out iface1.. small example: traceroute -s iface2 to router off hub2 (same subnet as iface2) - No problem traceroute -s iface2 to internet site - broken.. doesn't even reach the router nor do I see the hub lights blink. Not sure how I can tell the DHCP to just load the default gateway for iface1 and not iface2 and let me set that manually in rc.conf.. I can access the internet on both sides when they are setup seperatly.. I can also access the internet through iface1 when both are set up at the same time.. just not iface2.. and your third question.. I want to be able to access the internet through both interfaces plus be able to get to the machine through both interfaces.. Hope I'm not confusing things more.. James Earl wrote: You show a Router after Hub2. Have you tried setting up a route to get past it?

RE: WINS service over a Point to Point link. (Problem Solved)
-Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Aaron Burke Sent: Sunday, September 29, 2002 04:27 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: WINS service over a Point to Point link. Hello List, I have a question about how I can get WINS to run over a PLIP link. The service does run fine over my two ethernet networks. However, when WINS (run via Samba) tries to determine if there is WINS service running on the lp0 (Parrallel Point-to-Point connection) it fails on the broadcast. There is no 192.168.2.255 broadcast address available to send packets to. I am under the assumption that because there is no way to determine if a WINS server is allready running on that interface. Because no WINS server can be contacted, WINS is forced to fail to announce that it becomes the WINS server on that interface. Is there any way to add a reference to bravo (192.168.2.2) to the WINS tables? Seems that there was using the remote announce tag. On the server I used remote announce = 192.168.2.2 in the [global] section of the smb.conf file. I am aware that this may not be what made the difference And on the workstation (also a bsd box) I added remote announce = 192.168.2.1 and wins server = 192.168.2.1 in the [global] section of the smb.conf file.

The original poster wanted to update his whole system in one shot. make release isn't really intended for that, although it does build everything. It does a fair amount of extra work too, although if the original poster is leaving the machine alone while its chugs through the build procedure, that probably isn't very important. For those purposes, your 'hack something around make release' approach is fairly similar to make update world. [If the intent was to use the built release to install on a *different* machine, that would obviously require make release, but I don't see any messages indicating that was a goal in this case.] It's important to reiterate for the sake of newcomers that both approaches (any unattended approach, in fact) have the same shortcoming; they don't update /etc or /dev. The majority of the time, this can be done after the the upgrade, but sometimes it will leave the system unusable. The one-shot upgrade, as requested by the original poster, is neither supported nor recommended, although lots of people understand and are willing to take the risk. - Lowell To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
Re: Puzzling Simple NATD and IPFW Problem
assigned, use the command pfctl -sr 6.3 - NAT Note: Packet Filter is the filtering system in If you are looking for the IPF/IPNAT FAQ for before, click here. 6.3.1 NAT Introduction Based on RFC 1631, NAT provides an easy way to map internal networks to a single routeable (real) internet address. This is very useful if you don't have officially assigned addresses for every host on your internal network. When you set up private/internal networks, you can take advantage of reserved address blocks (assigned in RFC 1918), such as: 10.0.0.0/8 (10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255) 172.16.0.0/12 (172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255) 192.168.0.0/16 (192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255) The user is assumed to have already set up and configured an BSD machine with two network cards (one connected to the Internet and the other to the local network). Configuration For the purpose of example, we will use the system described below. Your setup will almost certainly vary from this, so be very careful in typing anything you see here literally into your system and expecting it to work as you desire. NICs: Intel EtherExpress Pro/100 fxp0 Connected to the EXTERNAL LAN (or WAN) IP Address: 24.5.0.5 Netmask: 255.255.255.0 Compaq Netelligent 10/100Mb tl0 Connected to the INTERNAL LAN IP Address: 192.168.1.1 Netmask: 255.255.255.0 External, Internet-routeable IP (provided by ISP, in this example, a cable modem provider) IP Address: 24.5.0.5 Netmask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 24.5.0.1 Local Area Network In this example environment, machines on the internal network use the IP addressing scheme 192.168.1.xxx (where xxx is a unique number). There could be a variety of different operating systems on the internal network, such as Windows 98, Windows NT, FreeBSD and Linux, but the client OS is not an issue for NAT. For the examples, the client we will look at on the internal network will be assumed to have an IP address of 192.168.1.40. Diagram of Configuration +-+ +-+ +--+ | Hub |- tl0 | NAT | fxp0 | Internet | +-+ +-+ +--+ | | | +-- Client A + More clients +--+ | LEGEND | +--+ | NIC fxp0 - 24.5.0.5 | | NIC tl0 - 192.168.1.1 | | Client A - 192.168.1.35 | +--+ 6.3.2 Network Address Translation Introduction to NAT Each node on the Internet requires a unique IP address. At least with IPv4, there is a very finite number of distinct IP addresses available, and as a result, they are not free. Most low-cost ISPs will limit a site to anywhere from 1 to 30 addresses, and while larger budget organizations may be able to afford a larger block, in most cases, there are relatively few benefits and considerable risks to having each computer individually addressable on the Internet. Network Address Translation, or NAT, (also known as IP Masquerading if you are coming from a Linux background) allows multiple computers to be located behind one (or a small number of) IP address. Each internal computer has a locally assigned, unregistered IP address (per RFC 1918), and all utilize the same external IP address, simultaneously. The way NAT works is rather simple. When a client on the LAN wants to connect to a machine on the Internet, it sends out a TCP packet with a request to connect. Inside the TCP packet header is the client's IP address (e.g. 192.168.1.40) and the requested host's IP address (e.g. 123.45.67.89). The machine running NAT intercepts this TCP packet and changes the client's IP address from 192.168.1.40 to the IP address of the Internet-connected machine (e.g. 24.5.0.5). This effectively tricks the host machine into thinking the actual connection is from the NAT machine, not the actual client's machine. The host then sends back responses to the NAT machine like it was the one connecting. When the NAT machine receives the responses it quickly translates the destination IP address back from itself to the client's machine and sends the packet to the client. The client normally does not have any idea what happened and the apparent Internet connectivity is transparent to the user and user's applications. The example below shows NAT a little more clearly: Client - tl0 [ NAT ] fxp0 -- Internet Host 192.168.1.35 --- 192.168.1.1 [ NAT ] 24.5.0.5 --- 123.45.67.89 OUTGOING TCP Packet OUTGOING TCP Packet From: 192.168.1.35 === NAT === From: 24.5.0.5 To: 123.45.67.89To: 123.45.67.89 INCOMING TCP Packet INCOMING TCP Packet From: 123.45.67.89 From: 123.45.67.89 To: 192.168.1.40 === NAT === To: 24.5.0.5 Why use NAT?

Ping to broadcast ok from subnet, not ok otherwise
Hi all- (Is this list working right? - I'm getting lots of wierd stuff in the digests...but anyway...) Other attempts to find the answer to this have failed, hopefully this isn't too off-topic. We have several subnets connected via Frame Relay. Call them 10.10.1, 10.10.2, 10.10.3, etc. On each, the gateway is the 254 address, e.g., 10.10.1.254. Sitting at a 10.10.1.n machine, I can ping the gateway 10.10.x.254 on every subnet. However, a ping to the broadcast address as ping -c1 10.10.x.255 fails on some of the subnets (from outside that subnet). From within the subnet, the ping to the broadcast succeeds everywhere. Pings to known hosts (and 10.10.x.254) succeed always from everywhere. So, my question is, why would I be able to successfully ping to the broadcast address from within a subnet but not from outside the subnet, but only in certain cases? We have a mix of windows, FreeBSD, router, and other machines on each subnet. (I'm led to ask all this since where the broadcast doesn't work from outside the subnet, neither does DHCP, which is proving to be a real problem!)

ISO CDROM Image for Freebsd4.7
After looking through the FreeBSD web site, I am not sure if there is not presently an ISO image for a new 4.7 CDROM or if I just missed it? I am installing a brand new system from a 4.4 CDROM which I burned from an image so this method works well here. Due to the number of security changes between 4.4 and 4.7, however, the old routine of cvsup make buildworld make installworld isn't as quick and painless as I thought it might be. Make buildworld is okay, but after that, one must do enough stuff to enough things by hand to make me think it is time for a new CDROM since most of the changes are meant to keep the spooks out of our new systems. I did see a cdrom.inf link on the ftp mirror I was on, but it simply had a one-line ID for what the disk should be. Is there an ISO image for 4.7 yet? Where do I get it? Thanks.

Greetings, I'd like to thank all who replied, the advice and suggestions were valuable and appreciated, not to mention timely! It looks like it was a false positive. I ran netstat from cd, new chkrootkit compiled on a clean machine, and nmap remotely. It also made sense to mount / (-ro) from a clean machine and do a diff -r /bin /mnt/bin. There doesn't seem to be a security breach. I'll rebuild the machine anyway soon. There's a know issue with chkrootkit reporting false positives running programs that use bindshell's ports. Although these aren't running on this machine (an _up-to-date_ DNS/mail server), it was in an unstable state for known reasons. An nmap from a remote machine of the entire network directed at the firewall showed nothing abnormal. I'm going to rebuild it anyway, but wanted to followup.

SCP and FTP to FreeBSD problem: Write failed
Hi there, We run a web server with FreeBSD 4.5 and apache. It used to run just fine, and we could both FTP and SCP up files to the server. But now when I try to FTP or SCP files to the server, it accepts most files, but suddenly gives errors at random files... Both in FTP and SCP to the server I get Write failed: Permission denied, mostly at large files (4-5 Mb). The strange thing is that when I try again, I don't get problems with the same file the next time... The disk in the server is not at all full... And the permissions for www-root is 755 (as it have always been), so the permissions seem correct. I am a bit worried that the file system is going to crash or something... Does anyone have any clue what can be wrong - and what I can do about this? Very thankful for all help on this matter! -- Sincerely, Smartnet Sverige AB Johannes Angeldorff To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Re: Ping to broadcast ok from subnet, not ok otherwise
On Wed, 9 Oct 2002, TheGlenMann wrote: Hi all- Sitting at a 10.10.1.n machine, I can ping the gateway 10.10.x.254 on every subnet. However, a ping to the broadcast address as ping -c1 10.10.x.255 fails on some of the subnets (from outside that subnet). From within the subnet, the ping to the broadcast succeeds everywhere. Pings to known hosts (and 10.10.x.254) succeed always from everywhere. So, my question is, why would I be able to successfully ping to the broadcast address from within a subnet but not from outside the subnet, but only in certain cases? We have a mix of windows, FreeBSD, router, and other machines on each subnet. (I'm led to ask all this since where the broadcast doesn't work from outside the subnet, neither does DHCP, which is proving to be a real problem!) The routers should block packets destined to the internal net broadcast address to prevent the infamous smurf attack. Search the CERT for details. I seem to remember that Cisco routers are configured to drop those packets by default. That explains why you can ping the broadcast from within the LAN and not from outside (the router drops the packet on the floor). As far as DHCP, there is a dhcprelay (part of the isc-dhcp port) to pass DHCP requests between networks. Besides, having only one dhcp server for the whole WAN is (IMHO) a Bad Idea (TM), it screams single point of failure.

FTP gone weird
Having a heck of a time with what I thought would be a pretty simple cron job
of pulling down a web log via FTP. In the process, I've run into a wall of
port problems.
The Scenario:
I'm running an ssh session looped back to itself so as to configure a tunneled
port forward from localhost:2121 to remoteserver:21
My cron job calls a small shell script that puts together the proper file name
to get for the day, then issues the following command...
ftp ftp://${USER}:${PW}@${SITE}:${PT}${REMDIR}${FILE}
The site and port vars are set to localhost:2121 to go through the tunnel.
When I run this script from a command line, it works exactly as I would
expect it to. From cron, I get the following error...
Data connection to 127.0.0.1:49159 is not allowed when control connection is
from 10.10.10.10:3553!
The from IP is faked for this example. The actual error has the routeable IP
address of this box. The port numbers both increment on each attempt.
The end goal here is to just automate an FTP download through an SSH tunnel.
The remote machine is not running sftp, nor do I have admin rights to it.
SSH forwarding is pretty much my only option there.
Any ideas?
Later on,

And I agree that it sounds like a routing/default gateway problem but I cant seem to figure out how to fix it.. I'm thinking that the dhcp is setting up a default gateway for both interfaces instead of setting it up for just iface1 and when I try to reach the internet from iface2 it tries to go out iface1.. small example: traceroute -s iface2 to router off hub2 (same subnet as iface2) - No problem traceroute -s iface2 to internet site - broken.. doesn't even reach the router nor do I see the hub lights blink. Not sure how I can tell the DHCP to just load the default gateway for iface1 and not iface2 and let me set that manually in rc.conf.. /var/db/dhclient.leases will show you what dhclient is picking up from your dhcp server. It will definitely pick up a router from the dhcp server, otherwise home users wouldn't be able to get on the internet.. I can access the internet on both sides when they are setup seperatly.. I can also access the internet through iface1 when both are set up at the same time.. just not iface2.. and your third question.. I want to be able to access the internet through both interfaces plus be able to get to the machine through both interfaces.. This is one thing I'm not too certain about. It seems to me, that to be able to access the Internet through both devices, would require some ip filtering so that certain applications (that you'd configure) requesting to connect to certain ports are directed through the interface you want them to go through. The only thing that I'm aware of that comes close to this, is natd, but I've only set that up so it redirects incoming traffic destined to port whatever, to a specific machine on the LAN. I don't see why it couldn't work in the reverse for you. You might need to get imaginative here... :) Hope I'm not confusing things more.. James Earl wrote: You show a Router after Hub2. Have you tried setting up a route to get past it? If you can only see the machines on the same subnet as interface2 then initially it sounds like a routing problem. Can you access the internet through each interface when they're setup separately? You mentioned you have to use interface2 for a web server, mail and dns. Are you wanting to only provide connections in through interface2 to your FreeBSD machine, or are you trying to use both internet connections from one FreeBSD machine? Quoting Steven King [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Well I want to treat interface1 as my primary route for most things (cvsup, lynx, etc, etc..).. and treat interface2 as if it was an alias'ed IP..

Re: i-buddie

Is your sis network card working? Is it possible to run XWin on i-buddie? Thank you for your answer. I am afraid I have had no luck with freebsd. My sis900 network card is recognized but fails with a 'MII without any PHY!', and 3 more devices are showing up as unknown: pci0 2.7 is a sis7012 audio driver pci0 5.0 is a conexant 56k modem pci0 7.0 ia a VIA OHCI Compliant IEEE1394 host controller Further more, XF86 as available in freebsd 4.6.2-RELEASE #0 does not recognize my lcd panel, so I can't run a desktop environment. I have not yet posted about the X problem, I wanted to have the sis900 network problem resolved first. FYI, I've installed mandrake 8.2 without a single hickup: all hardware recognized and configured properly in a very neat and smooth installation.

pcAnywhere over ppp
I have a number of clients for whom I periodicaly dial in to provide consulting services. In all cases I use ppp on FreeBSD 4.5. Many clients have RAS servers, AS/400 modems, and several other remote dial-in facilities. But one client uses pcAnywhere and I cannot seem to connect with it. Below is the /var/log/ppp.log file. Typically I can determine the cause of a rejected connection, but this time it is unclear. I see LCP: deflink: State change Stopped -- Closed but I can't figure out what causes it.: If anyone has experience with ppp over pcAnywhere modem connection then please clue me in.

The solution was to upgrade to FreeBSD 4.6.2 Netscape 7.0 uses linux_base7 (finally fixed) I'd be happy if I could just SEND mail from my old Netscape again, that's what is bugging me. The output of truss for just less than a minute was horrendous and from my end not very helpful for it didn't point to any files that I found missing. I made sure that the last part of the 60 seconds I had truss running I was trying to send emails and getting the errors. So, out of 72,292 lines in 60 seconds, I figure the last 15 seconds were email/failure related. So the 15,000 lines at the end are what I'm looking at. :( -- |72--| Bill Schoolcraft PO Box 210076 -o) San Francisco CA 94121 /\ UNIX, A Way Of Life._\_v http://forwardslashunix.com/raw To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
Re: FreeBSD usage in safety-critical environments
Nelson, Trent . wrote: Has anyone had any experience with deploying FreeBSD in safety-critical environments? Has any work been done attempting to certify FreeBSD to any particular SIL? Is there any intention to do such a thing? If not FreeBSD, I'd be interested to hear if any has had exposure to other BSD flavors being used in safety-critical environments. Life support systems need to be designed from the ground up. I've just been shown a report at work that has been commissioned by the UK Health Safety Executives and sponsored by the UK Ministry of Defense and Safety Regulation Group of the UK Civil Aviation Authority undertaking a preliminary assessment of Linux for safety-related systems. The report 'identifies' that it would be possible to certify Linux to SIL 1 and SIL 2 quite easily, and SIL 3 with a little work. Tell me where these systems will be deployed, so I avoid going there. Seriously. I'd hate to think that this would be an arena where BSD couldn't compete. I'd also hate to think that the tendency for big players such as the MoD or DoD etc to lean towards Linux is based on the general Linux 'hype', rather than technical merit... Life support systems require formal proofs of correctness for code; since neither Linux nor FreeBSD is formally correct, in total, you would need to be insane to deplaoy either of them as, for example, a part of an air traffic control system. The same goes for AIX, Solaris, Windows, VMS, and most other systems. The SIL 1/2 stuff, from my understanding, depends on fast reboot times and other things that are out of the control of the OS, and are more BIOS things anyway (external signal state changes during debvice probes, etc., causing actions in the hardware attached to the ports, etc.). The biggest cost factor in an life support deployment (IMO) is the liability insurance. By becoming your own vendor, you get to assume all of the liability. Not a good thing, from a risk analysis perspective. 8-(. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

MR. PULEDI MPEZI. PACIFIC BANK OF SOUTH AFRICA, 9TH FLOOR, HEERENGRACHT TOWER, STANDARD BANK CENTER, CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA. I am Mr. Puledi Mpezi, Provincial Director Pacific Bank of South Africa, Johannesburg Branch. I have urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. On June 6, 1998, an American Oil consultant/contractor with the South Africa Mining Corporation, Mr. Charles Andason made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at US$25,000,000.00 (Twenty- five Million Dollars) in my branch. Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers, the South Africa Mining Corporation that Mr. Charles Andason died from an automobile accident. On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a WILL, and all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless. I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr. Charles Andason did not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of US$25,000,000.00 is still sitting in my Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one will ever come forward to claim it. According to South Africa Law, at the expiration of 5 (five) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the South Africa Government if nobody applies to claim the fund. Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you to stand in as the next of kin to Mr. Charles Andason so that the fruits of this old man's labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials. This is simple, I will like you to provide immediately your full names and address so that the Attorney will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits which will put you in place as the next of kin.

But it is not a filename. It's a string which is used by ln(1) and the kernel's directory software for a filename; if people want to misuse it for storing PIDs or control strings or MP3s, that's an abuse of the system which the manual shouldn't bother to accommodate. No, it is not an abuse. It is utilizing standard UNIX behaviour, for very good reason. (I have to admit that I wouldn't want to store an MPEG file in the string of a symbolic link, though, and I can't imagine a good reason why someone would want to do that. Apart from that, the length of symbolic links is limited by SYMLINK_MAX, which is 1023 bytes.) Yuck; malloc.conf is nasty. No, it's extremely useful and efficient. ... Also, symlinks are an easy way to atomically check and create lockfiles in shell scripts. Useful, efficient, easy -- and yucky, nasty, kludgy. Apt to break if the directory scheme changes or to prevent improvements to same. I don't know what you mean by if the directory scheme changes. The behaviour of symbolic links is well-defined, exists for ages, and is fundamental to UNIX filesystems. Let me quote from the SUSv3 / IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 (POSIX) specification of the symlink() systemcall, which should be regarded as authoritative: | int symlink(const char *path1, const char *path2); | | The symlink() function shall create a symbolic link | called path2 that contains the string pointed to by | path1 (path2 is the name of the symbolic link | created, path1 is the string contained in the symbolic | link). | | The string pointed to by path1 shall be treated only | as a character string and shall not be validated as a | pathname. | [...] | | The presence of a hard link guarantees the existence of | a file, even after the original name has been removed. | A symbolic link provides no such assurance; in fact, the | file named by the path1 argument need not exist when | the link is created. I think that's as clear as it can be. Maybe the problem with the ln(1) manpage stems from the historical mistake to support hard links and symbolic links with the same utility (ln), even though they are really fundamentally different concepts. It's two separate system calls (link(2) for hard links, symlink(2) for symblic links). It should really be two different utilities (or at least two different hard links to the same utility), with two different manual pages.

setregid question
I have the following program:

system(/root/uid.sh);
setreuid(geteuid());
setregid(getegid());

system(/root/uid.sh);
}
where uid.sh runs 'id' command.
I make executable
chown meshko a.out; chgrp meshko a.out ; chmod 6770 a.out
and when I run it I get the following output:
uid: 0
euid: 1001
uid=0(root) euid=1001(meshko) gid=0(wheel) egid=1001(meshko)

Re: FTP gone weird
On the recommondation of an off list response I attempted using some other
tools instead of ftp. Tried fetch, wget, and even curl. wget didn't like
the port forwarding, cron or not.
Both fetch and curl work off the command line. They also don't produce an
error when run from cron. Neither one is actually getting the file though.
What in the heck is it about cron that goofs these ports up??

Having a heck of a time with what I thought would be a pretty simple cron

The Scenario:
I'm running an ssh session looped back to itself so as to configure a
tunneled port forward from localhost:2121 to remoteserver:21
My cron job calls a small shell script that puts together the proper file
name to get for the day, then issues the following command...
ftp ftp://${USER}:${PW}@${SITE}:${PT}${REMDIR}${FILE}
The site and port vars are set to localhost:2121 to go through the
tunnel. When I run this script from a command line, it works exactly as I
would
expect it to. From cron, I get the following error...
Data connection to 127.0.0.1:49159 is not allowed when control connection
is from 10.10.10.10:3553!
The from IP is faked for this example. The actual error has the routeable
IP
address of this box. The port numbers both increment on each attempt.
The end goal here is to just automate an FTP download through an SSH
tunnel. The remote machine is not running sftp, nor do I have admin rights
to it. SSH forwarding is pretty much my only option there.
Any ideas?

Other attempts to find the answer to this have failed, hopefully this isn't too off-topic. We have several subnets connected via Frame Relay. Call them 10.10.1, 10.10.2, 10.10.3, etc. On each, the gateway is the 254 address, e.g., 10.10.1.254. Sitting at a 10.10.1.n machine, I can ping the gateway 10.10.x.254 on every subnet. However, a ping to the broadcast address as ping -c1 10.10.x.255 fails on some of the subnets (from outside that subnet). From within the subnet, the ping to the broadcast succeeds everywhere. Pings to known hosts (and 10.10.x.254) succeed always from everywhere. So, my question is, why would I be able to successfully ping to the broadcast address from within a subnet but not from outside the subnet, but only in certain cases? We have a mix of windows, FreeBSD, router, and other machines on each subnet. (I'm led to ask all this since where the broadcast doesn't work from outside the subnet, neither does DHCP, which is proving to be a real problem!) Do you have Cisco routers connecting your frame's together? We have a Cisco router for the T1 to the internet, but the frame routers are Motorola/Vanguard 320 with a Vanguard 6520 at our main location. I've looked at the settings on the 320's, but with no luck (I cannot access the 6520 at all - I'm locked out). The reason I asked is because cisco's 'no ip directed-broadcast' would be dropping these packets. My guess is that the Vanguard is doing the same. This was mentioned in a another email. I've was told by our vendor that Well, DHCP is known to 'just stop working' on the 320's...you need an expensive software upgrade. Not acceptable, since nothing changed. Vanguard (who bought the Motorola Vanguard equipment line) would not even think about the question for less than $600. If you are not getting DHCP requests through then you need to be running some sort of DHCP relay or rely on the router to forward these broadcast requests to your DHCP servers (which actually turn the broadcast into a unicast and forward it). Also, some OS's do not respond to directed broadcasts. Responding to directed broadcasts by an end node is optional and some don't. No router should ever forward directed broadcasts unless the owner of the router deliberately turns on this (mis)feature. The older RFC (1122?) mandated that routers could turn it off but had to default to forwarding. This was changed after SMURF attacks became popular to MUST default to not forwarding.

vmware
I am wanting to try VMware to emulate XP and have a few questions for those who are using it. Currently i am booting between , freebsd, redhat and XP. These OS's are already installed on their own native partitions. This is my first question, I want to use freebsd as my host OS for vmware: Can i tell vmware to use the already existing NTFS partition and ext3 linux partition like you can in wine or do i have to reinstall both linux and XP under vmware emulation? I really don't want to reinstall XP and Redhat as they are all setup and running great. If this is feasible please elaborate or point to reference material as the vmware guide suggest you have to install all the virtual hosts OS's under vmware emulation. Memory: I have a athlon 1800+ with 256/ddr 2100 ram...is this enough to run all 3 OS's @ the same time, and if not what would be the recommended amount? Thanks in advance for any help. By the way is 4.7 release out? The reason i ask is because i see the 4.7 dir on the ftp, but there is no disk 1 there is 2,3,4 but no 1.

RE: kernel MAKE failed
Check to make sure that you don't have umass in your kernel config. If you do have it, I think you need to have the uhci or ohci option in the kernel config, along with scbus and da options. They should both be in the usb section I believe. On another note, I don't think config, make depend, and make is the recommend sequence anymore to make and install a new kernel. I think it's using make buildkernel and make installkernel.

Re: DHCP Relay over IPSec ESP/Tunnel (Sorry about the duplicate posts,problems with digital ID)
(taking this to questions because it is not a discussion on security topics) Erik Paulsen Skålerud wrote: Hello. Is it possible to use DHCP relay over an IPSec ESP/tunnel? What are the requirements to accomplish this, and is there any special configuration I have to use? I've been trying to get this to work for two days now, and I'm really really ready to give up. This is my last resort, so, please, if you do have any comments, please let me know. Hi Erik, DHCP relay should be possible over any IPSec tunnel (if not the other end of the tunnel has to get its IP from this DHCP server). It is like having one DHCP server and lots of clients in other subnets. Take a look into the handbook under: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/dhcp.html and look out for dhcrelay(8). If your routing over the tunnel works, dhcrelay should work too. Hope that helps Marc PS: I assume, that the tunnel is transparent to the network on both sides.
