According to the man page, you have to change daemons from listening to all local addresses. I have done this for every tcp port that is listed within the netstat command. But i'm having problems with some daemons that are listening for udp packets on all interfaces. netstat -na: udp4 0 0 *.68 *.* udp4 0 0 *.67 *.* these ports are used by dhcpd (isc-dhcpd) and dhclient. Has anyone ever managed to make those two programs only listen on a specific interface? PS: both daemons are run with an interface name as a command line argument that should make them only listen on that one: /usr/local/sbin/dhcpd fxp0 /sbin/dhclient fxp1 Yes. Your jail should still work, except that you won't be able to run any processes within it that bind to UDP ports 67 or 68. As you can't run dhclient from within a jail and I don't think that running dhcpd within a jail would be a particularly good idea either, that shouldn't cause you any noticable grief. dhcpd is not the only culprit. I never could get named(8) to stop binding to UDP port 1024, even though I've managed to restrict all it's TCP traffic to specific interfaces. Neither can I make ntpd(8) listen on a specific interface. However, this has not deleteriously affected the jail(8) I'm running. I could in theory use 'ntpq' or 'ntpdc' from within the jail to sabotage the ntpd setup on the local machine, except that the jail doesn't have the right ntp.keys file for that sort of access.

IPsec VPN between FreeBSD and WinXP

I took off the existing 20GB (Win2000), put the 30GB in its place (primary master). I boot from a 4.7-REL CD I made, install goes fine... it detects the controllers, drive, I partition the whole thing for FreeBSD, setting the auto defaults, etc etc. Everything goes swell. Then I'm done, I reboot, take out the CD... and it just sits there when it should be booting from the drive. I can't tell you the solution, but by pure chance I too have been fiddling with installs on a A7V133 system with a 30GB drive. I am convinced there is a bug in the BIOS because it doesn't honour the boot order you set in the BIOS sometimes. I did a quick experiemental install of 5.0 just to see. It all went fine, and did indeed boot. However it then refused to boot anything other than the HD, Despite the boot order being FD, CD, HD. I got around this by rather drastic means,,,but if it happens again I shall be..mmm..pissed off :) Although this is not what you are seeing, it is a bit of a co-incidence. Cliff, Just to confirm: you get beyond the POST, to the hardware info screen, where you should normally start seeing the boot process, correct? Mine just sits there at that point. A few things I haven't done yet that I intend on are installing MS-DOS to the drive, as well as using a different drive, in order to determine whether it is FreeBSD or the specific hard drive. What brand drive is yours, out of curiosity? Mine is an IBM DeskStar. What BIOS version are you using? I know there's a 1010 beta out for this board, but I'm hesitant to try it until I've done some other things (as I use this computer for Win2K also). It is interesting that 5.0 boots for you... if it were truly a problem with the A7V133's BIOS I'd expect 5.0 to not boot also. Anyhow, I will be troubleshooting this some more tonight.

I have been trying to find the answer to this question for years. The apple service manual says to replace the mother board! The best solution I have found other than taking it in for service is to get another ROM. A version 3.0 ROM fixes password problems and has the side effect of clearing the password. I have not done this, and i only found one person online that has verified that it worked. sunrem.com used to have them, but they are backordered now.

Problems with i810 + FreeBSD4.6 + Gnome
03 Dec, 02 Hi everyone, I am running FreeBSD 4.6 with Celeron800 Intel810 chipset and am facing problems with my X-server. Before I detail the problem, I'll make a brief note of options I have enabled/disabled in my system configuration : 1) agp_load has been enabled in /boot/loader.conf (Before enabling agp_load, I created agpgart in /dev through MAKEDEV) 2) Option NoDDC has been enabled in the XFree86 configuration file Now the problems. When I start gnome (as root), I get the message : 'Could not find the address for . This may prevent gnome from operating correctly. It may be possible to correct the error by adding to /etc/hosts' No address is specified in the first line - just a dot, nor is it specified what should be added to /etc/hosts. I must mention though that, despite the initial error message, X does start up and works pretty much okay - till I try and run Nautilus. This results in the following message : 'Nautilus encountered an unexpacted factory error from OAF. Try killing oafd and restarting Nautilus' Nautilus exits after displaying the message. As one might expect, the message is repeated upon killing oafd and restarting Nautilus. Can anyone please suggest some remedy ? By the way, are cable modems true hardware modems ? I ask this because my winmodem does not work under BSD and I am thinking of purchasing a cable modem if that can connect my FreeBSD system to the internet. Thanks.

Automount from a Solaris NIS server possible?
Hello-- I'm running FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE and have managed (after some difficulty), to get it to bind to a Solaris NIS server we have here. All NIS users can log on now, but I can't figure out how to get home directories automounted when users do log in. I tried a couple of things on the web, an awk script to transform the Solaris auto.home, to amd syntax, and it seems to work fine, except that no home directories are mounted when NIS users log in. I'm hoping for a silver bullet solution! Here are some relevant bits: # cat /etc/amd.conf [ global ] auto_dir = /net log_file = /var/log/amd log_options = all search_path = /etc/amdmaps [/net] map_type = nis map_name = amd.nis From the amd.nis map /defaults opts:=rw,grpid,intr,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,resvport;type:=nfs username host==nlattp6sfs1;type:=link;fs:=/volumes/home/toostenburg host!=nlattp6sfs1;os!=netbsd1;type:=nfs;rhost:=nlattp6sfs1;rfs:=/volumes/home/toostenburg host!=nlattp6sfs1;os==netbsd1;type:=nfs;opts:=rw,grpid,intr,resvport,proto=udp,vers=2;rhost:=nlattp6sfs1 It seems that amd is not picking up NIS logons.

Re: microuptime went backwards ??
BH microuptime() went backwards ( nnn.nn - mmm.m ) Sounds like an AMD Athlon. Yes Disable power management in your BIOS. Nop! It was disabled and this brough me to the microuptime problem. After having re-enabled it (i.e: ACPI enable, APM enable), it seams to work. Also, I recommend disabling it in the kernel as well. Kernel is GENERIC (in fact I did'nt checked if APM was still disabled in 4.7 GENRIC ). # Power management support (see LINT for more options) # deviceapm0at nexus? disable flags 0x20 # Advanced Power Management # Disable due to microuptime() issue last year New kernel build ongoing accordingly your config tip.

RE: Is there any way to disable passive mode on ftpd?
Now I don't know if that's a result of using a certain NAT setup vs another, but I'm using ipnat + ipfilter, and I had ftp forwarded to a windows box, and it worked fine for ftp, setting ports 10010-1030 for passive mode. I then decided to play with ncftpd on a linux box a while back, and it too worked, using the same ports and such. When the NAT does its thing, if I'm to understand this correctly, the ftp will think that anything coming in is coming from the gateway anyway... so its ok if it's the LAN IP's.. or something like that. I'm going to read through the ipfilter whitepaper again and find exactly what was said there.

[Q] Disk geometry problems
Hiya I've just built a server based around an Epox KT333 mmotherboard and Athlon processor. I booted from the 4.7 CD, but when I went to the slice editor sysinstall complained that my disk geometery was incorrect and it was using its own values. I tried using 'G' to set the geometry to the BIOS values but sysinstall rejected them. It wouldn't have bothered me that much, but the machine wouldn't boot into FreeBSD after the installation. It just went away for a while, then gave the 'missing system disk' error. Although it's possible that booting is failing for some reason other than the geometry issue, has anyone else run into a similar problem before? The BIOS's idea of the disk geometry: Cyl 28733 Head 16 Precomp 0 Landing Zone 28732 Sector 255 FreeBSD says: Cyl 7297 Head 255 Sector 63 I could try setting the BIOS geometry to the FreeBSD geometry (which would require switching from LBA mode to CHS), is this likely to make any difference?

Re: Virtual Private Servers/Jails
Does anyone have any information on setting up virtual private servers with Freebsd? There are a lot of people doing it out there but I can't seem to find any documentation supporting it. FreeBSD doesn't offer true virtual machines. FreeBSD does come with jails. Which can provide similar functionality in many cases. Jails aren't nearly as polished as the virtual servers I've seen in the linux world. In most cases, the problems I've dealt with either aren't jail specific, or else are caused by the various utilities inability to adapt to jailed environments. I've run jails on production webservers, in most cases to consolidate older legacy systems, so I've got some experience with them. I also took on the fun task of porting a lot of the custom utilities we used over to them. Now, I haven't worked with jails since the end of July, but I doubt much has changed in the past 4 or 5 months. If I'm wrong, please correct me. I hammer quotas a lot, because of how important they and other limits are in the web hosting environments I was using them in. What I've found: 1) Connecting (aka telnet, ftp, ssh) from one jail to another or even to the physical host is supposed to work, but I was never able to make it happen. If anyone knows why, please chip in... The jails could access the internet, but not its host or sister jails. /stand/sysinstall also didn't like to download ports, which I'm guessing is for a related reason. 2) Quotas work, but its painful. The FreeBSD quota system/utilities hasn't really been modified for jails. It works, but it isn't fun getting it to. I've seen one, maybe two sites out there that actually give some good information on this. Essentially, FreeBSD tracks quotas by UID, host side. They're still effective in jails, but you have to make sure that you don't have two UID's on the same filesystem. Also, to make the jails work happily with quotas and, almost as important, quota utilities, you've got to hack things up a bit with the init scripts. Make sure the jails /etc/fstab actually does list the *real* devices if you want to do anything quota related from them. The jail may not need to know about the devices in /etc/fstab, but almost all of the quota utilities do. The perl quota module can't cope with the jail environment, edquota will work, but I think I had to use the /etc/fstab workaround to get it to function. To make the quotas work, and to make them editable /from within the jail/ you have to mount the root of the filesystem to a point *within the jail.* 3) Virtual Filesystems are a no-no. In theory, you'd just make a new vfs for each jail. That sidesteps the problem of duplicate quotas on a single fs and/or migrating. To migrate, you just move the file to a new host and issue the mount/jail start commands. That's the theory anyhow. Do they work, yes. Do they work well? No. I had so many problems with the things deadlocking. Once that happens, you're screwed. If you issue a reboot command FreeBSD hangs while waiting for the fs to unmount -- which it can't do sence a write/read is pending/hung. Very nasty when you're working on a server you don't have physical access too. Also, when mounting/unmounting these things, espically during the creation process, I found that unmounts wouldn't always work cleanly. Probably related to the above problems. You'd issue an unmount command, and it would work.. sort of. Except you couldn't remount the vfs to a new device, nor could you use the old vfs device either.. It just wouldn't show up in df anymore. A couple of points: DO use a separate filesystem for each jail DO NOT use the virtual filesystems for it. DO make sure to use separate UID's for /each/ jail if at all possible. I would use ranges for each jail (ie: 5,000-10,000 for the firt one, 10,001-12,000 for the second and so on.. ) DO mount proc for process commands to show up. The linux virtual servers I played with a bit were more like true virtual machines. Which is probably what you're after. The jail is more or less a locked down subset of the main, physical host. Aside from the quotas, it also wasn't possible to set jail-specific limits. IE: 10% of processor, 2gb total disk space for the jail, etc. Also, while someone with root in a jail can't trash the main system, they can still do a lot of damage. If you're thinking of using shared filesystems for multiple jails, and use quotas, you're going to have problems if two users share the same UID. --Quotas are checked against UID /on the physical host side/, and then checked by the filesystem (again, on the physical host side). Since root wasn't given out, except to people with root access on the physical machine, I didn't have problems with quota's for the root partition. I grouped 5-10 jails on a single disk and didn't worry about it. For the users, since their quota's *did* count, the jails /home was an actual filesystem mounted

FreeBSD doesn't offer true virtual machines. FreeBSD does come with jails. Which can provide similar functionality in many cases. Jails aren't nearly as polished as the virtual servers I've seen in the linux world. The only glitch I've run into to date is that you can't run *multiple* instances of an app that uses shared memory such as PostgreSQL. Put the database on a separate server and let the jails talk to it though and it's fine. And some apps like top don't work right (something to do with accessing kernel paramaters that don't technically exist in the jail). Not a big deal though since if you want top there's a good chance your an admin and should probably be on the host box anyway :) The rest of my comments concern FreeBSD version: 4.7-RC FreeBSD 4.7-RC #2: Fri Oct 11 15:44:24 PDT 2002 I've run jails on production webservers, in most cases to consolidate I run them for development servers. oak is the physical box and runs postgresql. I've got 4 jails running apache so each developer can have his own sandbox and can royally screw things up without affecting the rest of us. Works awesome. me. I hammer quotas a lot, because of how important they and other limits are in the web hosting environments I was using them in. I don't use quotas since this isn't for a commercial web hosting environment What I've found: 1) Connecting (aka telnet, ftp, ssh) from one jail to another or even to the physical host is supposed to work, but I was never able to make it happen. If anyone knows why, please chip in... The jails could access the internet, but not its host or sister jails. /stand/sysinstall also didn't like to download ports, which I'm guessing is for a related reason. Works great for me... I can do all three b/n jails, host, and remote servers or any combination. Also updating ports with cvsup and/or installing them with porteasy also works just fine. Never tried using sysinstall. 2) Quotas work, but its painful. The FreeBSD quota system/utilities hasn't really been modified for jails. It works, but it isn't fun getting it to. I've seen one, maybe two sites out there that actually give some good information on this. Essentially, FreeBSD tracks quotas by UID, host side. They're still effective in jails, but you have to make sure that you don't have two UID's on the same filesystem. Not realtime, but you could run a du -hcs * on the top level directory that holds the jails to get a count, then substract what a bare jail contains and this would give you a snapshot of how much space is being used. Granted in a commercial environment your users could use as much as they want and then remove it before you run the script, but that's life :) with root in a jail can't trash the main system, they can still do a lot of damage. They can? How? Other than destroying that jail and thus anything on that IP, they can't touch the rest of the system.. at least that's my understanding. Please correct me if I'm wrong. 4) Needed utilities and commands. (Call it my wishlist) 1) A way to list jails. 2) A way to list processes BY jail, and a way to show (host side) which jail a process belongs to. 3) jail halt, jail restart commands to close out the jail, and possibly restart it.

PICOBSD/FBSD 4.7-p2 won't build with KERB5 and KERB-IV
Dear Sirs. We run a filtering bridge using PicoBSD based on FreeBSD 4.7-p2. Several weeks ago we start building FreeBSD 4.7-p2 with both 'MAKE_KERBEROS4=yes' and 'MAKE_KERBEROS5=yes' enabled by using the appropriate switches in /etc/make.conf. PicoBSD built correctly when only MAKE_KERBEROS5=yes is set, but Kerberos/Heimdal seems to be unable to operate only with KRB5 is built. While only Heimdal/KRB5 has been built when doing a 'make world' PicoBSD built correctly. Now we compile a 'WORLD' by enabling both KRB4 and KRB5/Heimdal and PicoBSD doesn't built anymore. First I thought it may has to do with some config errors, but every preconfigured PicoBSD is unable to produce a correct image. We use a clone of 'bridge' with several changes within the floppy tree but still using a 'normal' crunch.conf. When building/compiling a standard PicoBSD with the original crunch.conf I get a lot of errors when populating the binary image (kernel has been compiled successfuly). Always 'passwd.o' reports lacking in some libraries using krb_xxx specific things or com_err-specific things. to get rid of these errors I added an additional line with new libraries defined in crunch.conf and several errors disappeared. The following error-output shows up the added libs and the error: crunchide -k _crunched_mount_cd9660_stub mount_cd9660.lo cc -static -o crunch1 crunch1.o init.lo fsck.lo ifconfig.lo sh.lo echo.lo pwd.lo mkdir.lo rmdir.lo chmod.lo chown.lo mv.lo ln.lo mount.lo minigzip.lo cp.lo rm.lo ls.lo kill.lo df.lo ps.lo ns.lo vm.lo cat.lo test.lo tr.lo time.lo hostname.lo login.lo getty.lo stty.lo w.lo msg.lo kget.lo reboot.lo sysctl.lo swapon.lo pwd_mkdb.lo dev_mkdb.lo umount.lo mount_std.lo du.lo tail.lo tee.lo passwd.lo sleep.lo basename.lo expr.lo route.lo mount_msdos.lo ee.lo arp.lo disklabel.lo fdisk.lo vnconfig.lo grep.lo date.lo mount_nfs.lo ping.lo ipfw.lo traceroute.lo mount_cd9660.lo -L/usr/lib -lncurses -ledit -lutil -lmd -lcrypt -lmp -lgmp -lm -lkvm -lmytinfo -lipx -lz -lpcap -lwrap -ltermcap -lgnuregex -ldes -lkrb -lkrb5 -lcom_err -lpam -lrpcsvc -lcrypto -lkadm -lkadm5clnt -lkadm5srv /usr/lib/libkadm.a(kadm_cli_wrap.o): In function `kadm_init_link': kadm_cli_wrap.o(.text+0x6c): undefined reference to `initialize_krb_error_table' kadm_cli_wrap.o(.text+0x368): undefined reference to `krb_net_write' kadm_cli_wrap.o(.text+0x383): undefined reference to `krb_net_write' kadm_cli_wrap.o(.text+0x39e): undefined reference to `krb_net_read' kadm_cli_wrap.o(.text+0x3f9): undefined reference to `krb_net_read' kadm_cli_wrap.o(.text+0x516): undefined reference to `krb_mk_priv' kadm_cli_wrap.o(.text+0x5a1): undefined reference to `des_quad_cksum' kadm_cli_wrap.o(.text+0x76f): undefined reference to `krb_rd_priv' /usr/lib/libkadm.a(kadm_stream.o): In function `stv_string': kadm_stream.o(.text+0x202): undefined reference to `strnlen' *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src/release/picobsd/build_dir-bastion/crunch. --- fail: Error 1 error code crunch in Error while building bastion. --- Aborting /usr/src/release/picobsd/build/picobsd It is very curious that 'strnlen' is missing due to the fact this is part of libc and gcc should include this by default.

Right now, the module only returns a minimal amount of information (IP, hostname, number of loaded processes, etc.), but I wrote it with expandability in mind. -- Kirk Strauser In Googlis non est, ergo non est.

Re: Virtual Private Servers/Jails
I run them for development servers. oak is the physical box and runs
postgresql. I've got 4 jails running apache so each developer can have
his own sandbox and can royally screw things up without affecting the rest
of us. Works awesome.
That's always useful. Like I said, I just never got the jails to speak to
each other. It might have had something to do with the specific setup I
had going. I no longer manage the webhosting I was using the jails in, but
I'll see if I can't get some time with one of my development boxes to play
with. Postgres I've never used, MySQL on the other hand..
I don't use quotas since this isn't for a commercial web hosting
environment
That's what I was using them for. All of the work I did with jails was
targeted towards that environment.
What I've found:
1) Connecting (aka telnet, ftp, ssh) from one jail to another or even to
the physical host is supposed to work, but I was never able to make it
[snip]
Works great for me... I can do all three b/n jails, host, and remote
servers or any combination. Also updating ports with cvsup and/or
installing them with porteasy also works just fine. Never tried using
sysinstall.
I seem to be the only person unable to get it to go. I think it may have
had something to do with the firewall rules, but even allow any from any
didn't seem to have a big effect. Not sure if dummynet may have had
anything to do with it either, though I doubt it.
Not realtime, but you could run a du -hcs * on the top level directory
that holds the jails to get a count, then substract what a bare jail
contains and this would give you a snapshot of how much space is being
used. Granted in a commercial environment your users could use as much as
they want and then remove it before you run the script, but that's life :)
Realtime quotas are a must in web hosting. The stuff I've had users do was
incredible. At one point, there were no quotas except as you described
above. The amount of trouble that caused.. *shakes head*
Anything that has to scan the files works okay in smaller environments.
But when you break 10-20k accounts things really bog down.
with root in a jail can't trash the main system, they can still do a lot
of damage.
They can? How? Other than destroying that jail and thus anything on that
IP, they can't touch the rest of the system.. at least that's my
understanding. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
No, you can't mess with processes or files outside of the jail. However,
you can run processes which bring the system to its knees (think while(1)
{ fork; } --don't laugh, I'm not making this up. People really do
run commands like that just to see what would happen)
Also, if someone doesn't know any better (or doesn't have an option) they
might put the jail on one of their main partitions. FreeBSD may still
function, but it gets unhappy when a drive is totally full. Should you
have anything running that needs to save state (think databases here)
you'll have some problems.
That's what I was thinking of when I wrote what I did. I should have
clarified that, sorry.
Check out the following ports which do what you want with maybe the
exception of #2, but maybe even that, I don't remember.
jailer-1.1.1Manage FreeBSD jail startup, shutdown and console
jailutils-0.5.1 Several utilies for managing jails
I also saw a post made right after I composed mine with a JailAdmin tool
that looked very promising. I haven't used any of the tools above, but I'm
glad to see that many of my 'wishes' have already come true. =)

strange ftpd login problem
I am using a VPS service provider who is running: FreeBSD 4.6.1-RELEASE-p10 FTP server (Version 6.00LS) A user is having problems with FTP login using GoLive 6.0 on MacOS X. The user has no problems with other FTP servers. I tried a series of passwords and he tried each with the result being that only passwords that begin with his user name permit a successful login. I installed GoLive 6.0 myself under MacOS X and for me all passwords work on his account. So unless you have a hunch about this, I would like to be able to view the FTP sessions from the server side. Is there a way to arrange this using ftpd? I can use a different port if necessary. Alternatively I could manually emulate an FTP server if I could create some talk-style interface that his FTP client could connect to, but I have no idea how to do that. Is there a way to connect a terminal up to an incoming FTP port?

Re: More then 4 IDE devices in one FreeBSD server.
For what you're doing just get an IDE Raid controller card, then you'll technically have 8 drives, 4 of which you can raid by hardware and another 4 that you can raid by software. They're not that expensive. Just make sure before you buy one that you check out the supported hardware under your version of freebsd to make sure it is supported.

NOT ENOUGH! Kernel is GENERIC (in fact I did'nt checked if APM was still disabled in 4.7 GENRIC ). Makes no difference. As Greg Lehey explained earlier the only solution is to delete all reference to APM in your kernel config file. Disabled means still there but not being used.
