 If you still for some reason need to grant anonymous upload privilege
 (I can't really see why), then I'd advise looking into a more
 sophisticated FTP daemon that can implement storage quotas. (ProFTPd
 is one such application).

Alternatively, you could always limit the /incoming directory by
creating a sufficiently large file and mounting that with vnconfig.
This has the added advantage that it works regardless of the specific
ftpd program that is used :)

You can always boot from the FreeBSD installation CDROM and interrupt
the loader at the `spinner' by pressing space.  You should see
something like:

  FreeBSD/i386 BOOT
 Default: 0:ad(0,a)/kernel
 boot:

At the boot: prompt enter:

0:ad(0,a)/kernel

and the CDROM loader will boot from your disk.  Then, you can
reinstall the FreeBSD boot manager on /dev/ad0 with:

# boot0cfg -B /dev/ad0

disk partitioning

2003-01-06 Thread Ilan y.
hi, i need general information setting my harddrive for a
desktop/workstation system...
currently my system is set in the following way:

/   1.2 Gb
/usr6   Gb
/swap   500 Mb
/mnt/dos12  Gb

i now know that 1.5 Gb is a little too much for /
/usr got filled up pretty fast - i run many applications..and file
sharing applications

my real question here is what slice should i make to hold applications
that will survive after an upgrade of the system
some applications are installed under /usr/X11R6/binwhile some are
under /usr/local/bin..and some under other placesi've read the
handbook and it gives no useful information ( well, at least in a
language i can understand)...and also looked for some info in the unix
bible book  

if anyone can reply with any information on how to install applications
in one place only it would be a great helpi know that PREFIX has to
be set with a configure script but what about configuration files..
thanks in advance

The swap size depends on the size of your RAM. I use at least ramsize 
sized swap spaces. Usually 100M should be more than enough for /, but I 
strongly recomment either to create a /var slice or a link from /var - 
/usr/var (you should know the consequences when doing that or - if not - 
don't do it)

Re: dual-boot question

2003-01-06 Thread Shaun Dwyer
Instead of installing w98, install w2k into a FAT32 partition.

That way wine will have RW access to the partition and everything
should work fine.

All you have to do after you re-install is install a  boot loader..
either the standard freebsd boot loader, the w2k boot loader, or
even one that ive used before called 'smart boot manager'.

SBM was quite good. configurable from the loader screen, installs
from a dos boot disk.

google for smart boot manager.

 Subject: Internal mail server


 Here is my problem:

I have a lab with students that is going to be taught how
 to use an email client(Outlook). I want to set them up on an
 internal server that will not be visible from the outside
 world(Internet). I have the mail server setup using qmail and
 freebsd4.7. I also want to use a fake domain name, i.e.
 labcomps.net,.org,.com whatever, so that I will be able to
 send email within the class and no email will go outside or
 from the outside to the inside.

 Ironically, i just finished doing exactly that, if I understand you
 correctly.


Not a problem at all.  Just give named authority over the 'fake' domain
and give it some forwarders (in example named.conf file supplied with
FreeBSD).  Then point all the m$ clients at the internal dns.  Added
bonus...  it'll cache the results and depending on how dns was previously
set up you could see some reduction in external lookups.




You may be better using a domain name in the form labs.local or something
similar - especially if the machines have external access: you don't really
want your test emails escaping to the real domain if you pick a .com and,
say, the DHCP server resets your users' DNS server settings.

(owning irrelevant.com, the number of emails I get that are plainly tests 
or people
not wishing to fill in real addresses in web forms is astonishing ... or 
maybe not.)

You don't need to stick to the .com/.net/.org model of tlds if you are setting
up a system that nobody else will access.  Your imagination is the limit!

Re: DOS ATTACK. Any Suggestions?

Of course, people who don't do enough to secure their systems deserve what

...at least, that's what so many in the security field seem to say.

It's a ridiculous statement, of course -- we don't say, people who don't do 
enough to secure their homes deserve what they get, do we?  Not where I'm 
from, usually (and if we all really believed that, then why don't we have 
doors on our houses like the ones found on bank vaults?  Instead, we take 
smaller precautions (deadbolts, window blinds, perhaps owning a gun or other 
weapon) and meanwhile rely somewhat on the law to sort out home break-ins; 
although, I doubt that the American legal system could knowledgeably handle a 
computer security case), yet I can't count the number of times I've seen this 
mantra repeated...

Anyway, that's my $0.02, I'll get off my soapbox now.  :)

I wish I could help you more, but I can't offer any real advice other than to 
look for patterns among the incoming IP's (and block them, at least 
temporarily), possibly limit the connection rate for each TCP connection (if 
FreeBSD or Apache is able to do this - I don't know offhand), see if you can 
find out who the moron is that thinks he's cool for DoS'ing you, replace your 
homepage with a small text-only version to reduce the bandwdith used (again, 
temporarily, until the attack stops anyway -- don't feed the attacker's ego 
with a message on the replacement page saying I'm going to find you and 
slice off your balls, etc. as that'll probably only encourage him/them),

 again, signing up to this list has been a godsend to me.

I've done this many times for clients' internal email.  It's
a way to keep internal mail private when combined with a
firewall.  But you don't need a firewall to have it work.

Use a made up TLD (Top Level Domain).  It won't interfere
with anything in DNS that way. For example,
'hostname.inside' where the TLD is '.inside' or '.intra' for
a local intranet.

Just make sure that the DNS server has no slaves.  You might
set it up on the same box as the mail server for simplicity.
Include some forwarders in named.conf and it will serve
perfectly well for all DNS queries to outside too, with the
bonus that you'll get some saving in outside traffic due to
its' cache.

Set the clients DNS to that server. Create user accounts as
[EMAIL PROTECTED] on the server. That's about it.

You might want to make the point to your class that using
their .inside address as a reply-to will only work when sent
to other .inside email addresses.  If somebody outside
replies, obviously it will bounce.  Understanding this is
useful for people getting a grasp of how it all works at a
conceptual level.  Some people want only keystrokes and
rules. They get terrified when told more (you see blank
glassy-eyed stares), but this isn't difficult stuff.

To call the TLD you make up fake isn't quite right.  In a
network logic sense, it's just as real as any other. The
only difference is that only clients pointed at the DNS
server that contains it will see it.  Out on the larger
Internet there is a structure in place that eventually
points you to appropriate DNS servers for particular
domains.  In this case we're simply using our own little
structure and private domain as a supplement.  This point is
political too.

Hi.

  Can anyone make clear for me one thing. In file /etc/rc.firewall
we have two sections which stops RFC1918 and draft-manning-dsua-03.txt
networks:
  # Stop RFC1918 nets on the outside interface
  [ ... ]

  # Network Address Translation.  This rule is placed here deliberately
  [ ... ]
  case ${natd_enable} in
  [Yy][Ee][Ss])
  if [ -n ${natd_interface} ]; then
 ${fwcmd} add divert natd all from any to any via ${natd_interface}
  fi
  ;;
  esac

  # Stop RFC1918 nets on the outside interface
  [ ... ]

If we don't using NAT then we have _two_ sections of _same_ rules,
where the second sections is unnecessary. May be better code is:
  # Stop RFC1918 nets on the outside interface
  [ ... ]

  # Network Address Translation.  This rule is placed here deliberately

  case ${natd_enable} in

 ${fwcmd} add divert natd all from any to any via ${natd_interface}

 # Stop RFC1918 nets on the outside interface
 [ ... ]
  fi
  ;;
  esac

Where the second section which stops RFC1918 and draft-manning-dsua-03.txt
networks is applied only if we really using NAT ?

 It should work with binary transfer.

 What does ftp say?

FTP is set to binary by default, so I'm quite confused.

 
  Are there any other reasons this may have happened? Any way to test?
 
 I can't think of any other.  It's a traditional problem.  You 
 can test by comparing the size of the archives on each side.

Archives appear to be the same size on both sides.

I'm starting to think that the archives got corrupted somehow? The
archive starts to unpack (I see a few directories and files) then hits a

presume the data is still on it. If I were to re-connect the drive, and
re-load vinum, could I access the data? How easy/difficult would this
be?

Thanks again!

Installing ImageMagick -DWITHOUT...

2003-01-06 Thread Andreas Widerøe Andersen
Hi,
I want to install ImageMagick without X and Ghostscript and other things 
I don't need.

I do it from ports and issue this command:

# make -DWITHOUT_X11 install clean

This takes me directly to the Ghostscript driver configuration screen. I 
don't want Ghostscript since I don't print from this server.

1. Can I specify more without-options, Ie. make -DWITHOUT_X11 
-DWITHOUT_GS install clean?

2. What is the without syntax for Ghostscript here?

3. What is the general FreeBSD exclude without command when installing 
from ports and where is it placed? I've seen several, Ie. --without-gui, 
-DWHITOUT and so on.

Thanks for any info!

 Is there a way to break down the install, and just get a bare bare bare

Then do it.  If it works, I doubt there will be much trouble getting

Postscript is one of the formats that ImageMagick seems to consider

 1. Can I specify more without-options, Ie. make -DWITHOUT_X11

Won't help.

 2. What is the without syntax for Ghostscript here?

You'll need to go pretty deeply into ImageMagick itself to come up
with a way to do that.

 3. What is the general FreeBSD exclude without command when
 installing from ports and where is it placed? I've seen several,
 Ie. --without-gui, -DWHITOUT and so on.

See the Porter's Handbook.  
Or just look at a given port's makefile to see what it supports.

--with-foo / --without-foo is the syntax the underlying ./configure

cannot install FreeBSD 4.7

2003-01-06 Thread Ying Shi
Dear Sir,

  I'm trying to install FreeBSD 4.7 onto a device.

It's a PIII-1.2 GHz w/1024MB RAM with RAID. RAID controller is
a Promise FastTrak100 with two 40GB Maxtor hard disks attached.

I can boot the Kernel floppy and MFS root floppy with no problem.

After all the conflicts had been resolved, /stand/sysinstall Main Menu
was displayed. Then I selected a standard installation.
I got a message --- No disks found!

I configured one of disks as a logical disk, another unplugged.

I'm wondering if FreeBSD 4.7 can be installed in above device.


Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Re: FTP incoming directory. Damned Hooligans.

2003-01-06 Thread nate
Adam Maas said:
 Anonymous FTP right?

 The more sophisticates warez kiddies have taken to scanning networks for
 anonymous ftp servers, and then loading them up with their warez/pr0n and
 giving out trhe IP. Had it happen to a few customers (I work Tech Support
 for Major Evil Backbone Provider).

 Next time give them logins to the box and always disable anonymous FTP.

for my previous company I setup an anonymous ftp server. It was pretty
locked down, it worked very well though. I used proftpd, since it had
acls which overrode filesystem permissions. the anonymous user had 2
directories, which were invisible unless you knew the name(not hard to
guess but still):

incoming - anyone can upload, nobody can list files, nobody can download
files

outgoing - anyone can download, nobody can list files, nobody can upload
files

there was a special account  that the staff used to manage the files on
the system. this made it easy for them to upload a file to outgoing with
this account and email the url

ftp://some.ftp.server/outgoing/filename.zip

or whatever, and it would download, but unless you knew the filename
you couldn't get anything. This worked out better then providing accounts
for each customer. The company had such a system inplace earlier and
it was a total mess. Provided the employee made a sufficiently obscure
filename(anything but filename.zip!) It was enough to prevent unauthorized
downloads of files.

and when trying to list files, the server wouldn't return an error like
permission denied it would just show nothing. Never had a problem with them
warez kids using it :) (that is, they never could ..)

Incase your interested i trying such a configuration, this is what
I used:

Anonymous ~ftp
  DisplayLogin  welcome.msg
  User  ftp
  Group ftp
  UserAlias anonymous ftp
  MaxClients10
  DisplayLogin  welcome.msg
  DisplayFirstChdir .message

2003-01-06 Thread root
This is a request for help made after extensive efforts to install
freebsd on  
my computer, and only after having tried almost everything, i was
wondering 
if you have any suggestions.
Firstly, may I say what my system is., below:

maxtor 6Y120LO hardrive
sis 5513 chipset
sis 5513 ide controller
hda maxtor 6y120l0 ata disk drive
bus pci
sis648  ATA  133 controller
 I also get the message in the boot messages, (not 100% native, will
probe 
later) if this is of any moment
May I say I am using Suse linux as my main operating system and hope to
multi 
boot from a choice of systems, so far I have had no problem, Debian
installed 
superbly as well.
I have Windows xp on the first partition, the unices behind it, (I am
no fan 
of wondows! )
May o also say that i have used the blochs emulator to try to debug the
installation and sysinstall comes on screen perfectly but then I get the
nessage 'can't recognbise the disk'
this is in keeping with when i use ordinary booting, the software just
hangs, trying to identify the hard drive.
I don't know if any of this will help solve the problem, I have
experimented 
with several parameters, using thre kernal configurator, and wonder if
the 
disk controller I am using is compatable with freebsd.
Any help with this would be greatley appreciated.
p.s.
I sent this message before but have since changed ISP, therefore have
sent it again

Many thanks for your trouble,

Nick

You can't change them with the standard BSD bootloader, but you *can* use

[Q] ipfw and 'me'

2003-01-06 Thread Jonathan Belson
Hiya


My ISP uses DHCP to allocate IP numbers, so currently every time
the IP changes, I have to manually change my firewall rules.

I've just been looking into the 'me' option for ipfw:

me  matches any IP address configured on an interface in the
system.  The address list is evaluated at the time the
packet is analysed.

Since the machine is a gateway, it has two network cards.  Will
'me' match *both* IP address or just the first one it comes
across?  I only really want it to match the IP address of the
external interface, not the internal one.

Cheers,

The best way to do this is to use awk to determine and set a variable for
the external IP every time it changes and then refer to that variable in
your rules.

4.7Release - sed problems?

I'm working on a new clean install of 4.7R from the iso.

dmesg gives an error:
  pid 94 (sed), uid 0: exited on signal 4 (core dumped)
this comes from the 'sed' call in 'update_motd'

installing applications from ports also fail on 'sed' calls

release notes on 4.7 indicate:
  sed(1) now takes a -i option to enable in-place editing of files.

my question:
Does this mean that the wrong version of sed is included in the iso of disk 1?

Re: Palm 515 setup

2003-01-06 Thread Anne Sipes
Hi Jason,

I noticed that entries that I had made on my Palm before the first time 
it was initialized didn't sync to the Jpilot desktop.  Also entries that 
 were beamed to my Palm and then changed in some way , like being moved 
to a different catagory didn't get synced.  I went in to each entry 
changed one thing and then tried the sync again and it worked.

I am only able to sync one application at a time.

I have been communicating with someone who has an m500 who seems to be 
having the same problem your having.

Please let me know if you determine that something is missing from the 
howto.  I'd like to make it work for as many people as possible.

Thanks,
Anne

FYI, this works on my m125 as well.




Unfortunately, I spoke too soon.  jpilot seems unable to read anything
from the Palm other than the username and ID.  Using the serial cable
works fine.  The strange part is I can use the pilot-link utilities just
fine.  Maybe it is something specific to jpilot?  I thought jpilot just
ran pilot-link's utils and collected their output?

Re: Redirecting root's email

2003-01-06 Thread Toomas Aas
Hi!

 I am having trouble redirecting root's email to an external email
 account.  This is a 4.7-Release box with not very modifications done to
 the standard installation.

 When I look at /var/spool/clientmqueue, it is full of messages.  Here is
 a snippet of one:

 MDeferred: Operation timed out with localhost.visimation.com.

I'm not a big Sendmail expert or anything, but do you even have the MTA 
process running? Can you successfully telnet localhost.visimation.com 
port 25? What sendmail related lines do you have in /etc/rc.conf?

Qmail to Postfix migration

2003-01-06 Thread Gerard Samuel
Hi all.  Just looking for pointers as to a secure Postfix setup.
I just setup Postfix on my laptop, and Im able to send/recieve mail to it.
Im going to duplicate the setup on my firewall and attempt to use 
Postfix's .forward syntax to forward
periodic emails to root to my mailserver like how I did using Qmail's 
.qmail forwarding syntax.
My main concern is the actual mailserver.  What recommendations can be 
given to have a secure setup.
The mailserver handles all my mail at home.

Thanks

pkg_add help

2003-01-06 Thread Douglas Denault
I am trying to install kde-3 via package add. I can not because /var is filling
up. After a few attemps I tried:

pkg_add -p /usr/tmp -t /usr/tmp/instmp.XX -r kde

I can still watch /var/tmp fill up. I finally seemed to make things work by
setting PKG_TMPDIR. I guess I do not understand the purpose of the -p and -t
operands. Any pointers appreciated, I am quite lost on this.

terminal features

Hello,

let me see if i can describe my problem..
i currently am using putty to access my bsd box from windows 2000. Using an
editor such as vi, i may edit a file and exit vi. When that happens i would
like the terminal to return to its original state. instead it leaves some of
the file left of the screen. what i want is for the terminal to return to
the same state it was in before entering vi.

how can i do this? what is this called?
Thanks,

brian

Try a Cntl-L or 'clear'.  You might also check and see what $TERM is set 
to; perhaps if you set this to match what putty is setting the terminal 
type to (probably VT100 or ANSI), various programs will do better at 
drawing to the screen.

dhclient - no DHCPOFFERS received.

2003-01-06 Thread lewiz
Hi,

  Just recently I've found my laptop has been taking a while to obtain a
lease.  I turned on all logging to the console and found the following
(modified a bit):

dhclient: DHCPREQUEST on ep0 to 255.255.255.255.0 port 67
dhclient: Trying media media 10base2/BNC 1
dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on ep0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 6

  At this point a series of ``Trying media...'' and ``DHCPDISCOVERER''
are repeated (only the interval changed - 6, 12, 14, 18 then 6).

dhclient: No DHCPOFFERS received..
dhclient: Trying recorder lease 192.168.0.10

  It looks to me like the DHCP server is not responding.  Is this the
case?  I've verified that the DHCP server is working (another machine
has no problems obtaining a lease).  Any ideas?

-lewiz.

4.6 upgrade to 4.6-p6 failure

upgrade went smoothly as could be ;), but masters installworld failed with:

*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/utils/h2ph.

and that's it ;) h2ph looks quite innocent (and echo install: 
Makefile helped ;), but it still breaks the world... make.conf has no
variables, that could cause this.

Any ideas?

Ports failing

2003-01-06 Thread John Brooks
this is a new clean install of 4.7 release from cdrom. previously this box
had 4.5 release.

from a boot screen:
  Illegal instruction (core dumped)
  Jan 6 16:30:36 joseph /kernel: pid 94 (sed), uid 0: exited on signal 4 (core dumped)

setting 'update_motd=NO' bypasses this error

release notes on 4.7 indicate:
  sed(1) now takes a -i option to enable in-place editing of files.

also, ports will not compile, returning errors of 'invalid syntax', 'syntax error',
'return makes integer from pointer without a cast', and 'data definition has no type
or storage class' I suspect this is related.

Has anyone dealt with this or seen this before?

how to make bind listen only to 127.0.0.1

2003-01-06 Thread Wiroth Didier
Hey,
I would like to run bind as a caching only server (v 8.3.3
from 4.7-release). I would also like that it only listens
on port 127.0.0.1, but how? I tried this entry in
named.conf, but it didn't work:
query-source address 127.0.0.1 port 53;

It still listens on the real ip address?
sockstat -4 shows:
root named  296   20 udp4   192.168.0.2:53

root named  296   21 tcp4   192.168.0.2:53
   root named  296   22 udp4   127.0.0.1:53
 

What do I have to change so it named only listens to
127.0.0.1?

Thanks a lot
Didier

'man named.conf', and look for the 'listen-on' directive.

options {
// Your options

listen-on {
  127.0.0.1;
};
};

// Other BIND directives

I'm assuming the client eventually obtains a lease.

Does the problem persist if you manually release/renew the IP?

  # dhclient -r

A cache problem perhaps?

RE: Redirecting root's email

2003-01-06 Thread Stacy Olivas
In the /etc/aliases file look for the following lines:

# Pretty much everything else in this file points to root, so
# you would do well in either reading root's mailbox or forwarding
# root's email from here.

# root: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
(should be at the top of the file.

make sure that you have a line in it like this (either uncomment the line by
remving the # or add a new line like:

root: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

save it and then run the newaliases command.. it will rebuild the aliases
database.

For more info, do a man newaliases.

Of course, this only works *if* you have the sendmail daemon running. bg

Check your hosts file. I had this problem a while back, I needed to have
a valid localhost address for both IP4 and IP6 (even without IP6 in the
kernel). Make sure that every interface/alias on your box has a name
associated with it too. Sendmail is a bit picky like that.

Problem with buffer space

2003-01-06 Thread Jonathan Louis Jennings
Greetings!

My friend and I are running FreeBSD 4.7 and are connected to a DSL line 
with an Alcatel Speedtouch USB ADSL modem.  We are able to successfully 
establish a connection to our DSL provider and can successfully access 
all network services.  The box in question serves as a gateway for a 
LAN (using ppp nat) and the internal clients are capable of accessing 
all network services as well.

However, periodically, all network services become heavily lagged and 
eventually cease functioning entirely.  At such times, ping reports the 
following:  sendto: buffer space not available

The maximum transmission unit size for our ppp interface is set to 
1500. (this may have no relation to the problem)

Also, after about 10 minutes the buffer clears and is capable of 
sending and receiving packets again.  After using the network for a 
given period, the buffer again becomes full and all network services 
lag heavily and eventually cease functioning entirely.  And the process 
continues in this manner indefinitely, even after rebooting.

We compiled a new kernel, raising maxusers to 64, but the problem 
still persists.  I have researched buffer space allocation and cannot 
find any articles or explanations for beginners.  (I have no experience 
with the concept of buffers and how they work, etc.)

In any case, I found two options in the LINT kernel:  NMBCLUSTERS and 
NMBUFS.  Are these two related to raising the amount of TCP buffer 
space?  If so, how might I determine what values to use for the above 
two options?

Also, if the above two options are not related, where might I read 
about buffer space (particularly sockets, tcp, etc) and how might I fix 
the problem?

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance,

John

RE: Postfix vs. Sendmail

2003-01-06 Thread Daniel Goepp
Well sort of.  That only prevents them from recompiling and updating if
you do a build/install world.  I realize I'm probably requiring more
control than is natural, but I don't want sendmail to have ever been
installed in the first place.  But really, it goes beyond that.  The
FreeBSD crew, has decided for us the list of apps they consider to be
part of the OS.  Some contributed, some developed by themselves, some
standard unix tools, etc...However, that leaves the rest of us cleaning
out these apps that we didn't want in the first place.  Don't get me
wrong, I love FreeBSD, but this particular aspect of it is driving me up
a wall.  I'm trying to figure out how to get the most bare install
possible, and then from there, add things on that I want.  It would seem
that this would be easier for them than harder.  And a nice little app
to control what actually goes into the install.  I know, really there is
probably little effect on the system to have things on it that are not
used.  However, to some that's considered a security breach, to me, it
also just bothers me.  What if I don't want rcp to be installed on my
system at all?  There are a million and one of these little apps,
utilities, etc...I can understand that some are standard.  However, they
can be categorized, and selected.  I'm probably the only person that
wants this level of control.  So, sorry for wasting everyone's time...

Peace.

I do hear what you are saying though.  Trust me, I love this environment

I realize, as I mentioned in another post, I may well be the only person

 I don't understand what's happened to this archive (and serveral

 same problem with a whole set of archives that I ftp to a remote
 Windows machine... the ones I stored on my other FreeBSD machine
 are fine.  Did something happen during the transfer?

 windows ftp defaults to ascii more, not binary, so its adds a \r
 to each \n - you might save your tar files if you upload ascii to
 get them stripped out again.

 Would it be possible to use a script to achieve the same outcome?

 No, you don't know which \rs have been added.

 I've tried re-uploading/downlaoding the files in multiple modes,
 to no avail.

 It should work with binary transfer.

 Tried several times/ways to no avail.

Hmm.  OK, when you've transferred the file, transfer it back to your
FreeBSD box under a different name.  Then compare the two files with
cmp(1).  That will tell you whether you're really suffering from data
corruption.

 Also, I ftp'd these files TO a Windows box FROM my BSD box, so I
 believe that the default mode for that would be binary?

 What does ftp say?

 FTP is set to binary by default, so I'm quite confused.

Not on Microsoft.

 Are there any other reasons this may have happened? Any way to test?

 I can't think of any other.  It's a traditional problem.  You
 can test by comparing the size of the archives on each side.

 Archives appear to be the same size on both sides.

Hmm, that's not the \r syndrome, then.

 I'm starting to think that the archives got corrupted somehow?

What does tar t tell you on the FreeBSD side?

 The archive starts to unpack (I see a few directories and files)
 then hits a snag and spews garbage or quits.

 Here's a question then... suppose I want to re-mount a drive that
 had the data on it, but the drive was one of two drives mirrored
 with vinum.  I've subsequently changed my drive set-up and now this
 drive is just sitting there as a 'hot spare', I haven't newfs'd it
 or anything... so I presume the data is still on it. If I were to
 re-connect the drive, and re-load vinum, could I access the data?
 How easy/difficult would this be?

That depends a lot on the Vinum configuration and whether you're
running any other Vinum volumes.  It could work.  But first I'd like
to establish whether your archive is really corrupt.  There's a
possibility that the tar you're using on the Microsoft side simply
doesn't understand the archive.

I have had a related problem, though some of the details are out of my
control, and I am unaware of the exact mechanisms involved.  I used a VPS
service provider - that is I have a virtual server.  As I understand it,
this service is based on standard FreeBSD VPS capabilities.

Sendmail was the first thing I got rid of after trying it for a few days.  I
replaced it with qmail+vpopmail.

The problem came up when my VPS provider did a system upgrade.  This process
left everything I had intact except I lost my sendmail soft link which had
pointed to the sendmail replacement provided by qmail.  The link was
replaced by the sendmail binary with the result that I suddently had
sendmail running again beside qmail.  The only consequence of this that I
know of is that local root email (cron stuff) suddenly got forwarded
according to the long-forgotten sendmail configuration.

The install process my provider uses for system upgrades is out of my
control, as is the kernel configuration.

However, I am putting in my vote for making sendmail as optional as
possible.  If it were an optional part of the FreeBSD distribution it is
more likely my provider would make this option (just say no to sendmail)
available to me.

 that much of a problem.

So what is the probem with using to/from me via fxp0? Or possibly any

assigned to the NIC.

Problem with lifting the IP address off the NIC after DHCP is that you 
have to redo it every time the IP address changes. I have a script 
(/etc/dhclient-exit-hook) to run ddup into mine but have never felt 
totally comfortable with the result and waited about 6 months with it 
running before I actually let it run ddup live rather than echo dddup 
args to a log file.

Speaking of which, I sure would like to get rid of these from 
/var/log/messages. Other machines on this ISP do the same even without 
the dhclient addition mentioned above:

If I get right what you're asking...

Root's shell is csh by default.  Csh does not have an exact equivalent to
the sh export command.  Instead you must use

setenv variable value

Note the lack of the = sign.

This basically combines the functions of sh's set and export.  (Maybe there
are some subtle differences if you subsequently set the non-exported
variable by the same name?  But you probably don't need to worry about
this.)

Usually to redirect root's email, you edit /etc/mail/aliases to have an
entry that looks like this:

root:matt

and then run 'newalises' for it to take effect.  If you want to redirect
root's email to a non-local mailbox, then you have to make an entry in
/etc/mail/virtusertable, like this:

root[EMAIL PROTECTED]

and then 'cd /etc/mail' and 'make' which will do the trick.

Telnet to port 25 of localhost.visimation.com works.  In my /etc/rc.conf
the only entry I have for sendmail is:
sendmail_enable=YES

Thanks for the help.  This is really frusrating me. :(

 I really wish I could get this working.  It seems like such a simple
 thing, and my installation was pretty much straight-out-of-the-box from
 the Standard installation.

Usually to redirect root's email, you edit /etc/mail/aliases to have an
entry that looks like this:

root:matt

and then run 'newalises' for it to take effect.  If you want to redirect
root's email to a non-local mailbox, then you have to make an entry in
/etc/mail/virtusertable, like this:

root[EMAIL PROTECTED]

and then 'cd /etc/mail' and 'make' which will do the trick.

Well, not to be left out of the party, here's the way I've done for as long
as I can remember:

snip/ (# are from from the aliases file)
# Pretty much everything else in this file points to root, so 
# you would do well in either reading roots mailbox or forwarding
# roots email from here.

root:   sageame # On this server
sageame:[EMAIL PROTECTED]  # Another domain on another server

# In the above example, I first send root to a normal user account (may be
redundant).
# I also put include files which contain outside and inside accounts

# Test include file list
sendtest::include:/etc/mail/sendtest# a test file

/snip

Then run # newaliases -- should work

I suggest you try the above sendtest used as follows below which runs on
the console verbose and you can see what it the mail system is doing and
perhaps see the problem:

# mail -v -s test sendtest  /dev/null

where include is a list from /etc/aliases
...
sendtest:include:/etc/sendtest

where sendtest (aliases include)
root# On this server
[EMAIL PROTECTED]  # On another server on my network
[EMAIL PROTECTED]   # A outside network

POP Server with Secure Password Authentication

2003-01-06 Thread Kory Hamzeh

I need to setup a POP Server that supports Secure Password Authentication. I
have some MicroSoft Outlook users that need to pull their mail, but they are
coming in over the internet. I looked through the ports collection, and
didn't notice anything. Is there something I have overlooked?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Kory

  Can anything be gathered from the attached sysconsole messages?  Oh, also,

 For that I would use script(1). I think with tcsh it is not possible to
 direct stdout and stderr to both a file and the console.

Great idea!  I'll try to remember and use it one of the next times...

 I am afraid I don't use either Gnome nor Galeon nor GAIM, so I don't think I
 can help you with that, but you should set your IP address and hostname in
 /etc/hosts to avoid that xauth errormessage.

I did man hosts but it doesn't tell you exactly what the lines of info in
the /etc/hosts file are *used* for.  Nor does it address people who get
their IP dynamically!

   As for the rest, you sould probably check your jdk1.3.1 installation
 or something like that. This libjavaplugin_oji.so-thingy is something I've
 encountered too, but with the native FreeBSD version of Opera. Don't really
 have a clue on that.

 HTH (a little)

I've been using Galeon (browser) and note that it is far far faster than
plain old Mozilla.  Out of the blue the Flash plugin works but I get no
audio and interactive flash often doesn't work right or it crashes the
galeon-bin binary.  Java I've given up on until it's an all-in-one pkg!!

I don't think it is, because you also have to control what source you
download.  So in conjunction with only keeping what you use in sync, you
also only compile and install what you use.  In fact, it's the
communication between cvs/cvsup and the FreeBSD src build/install that
I'm having problems with.

Re: Redirecting root's email

2003-01-06 Thread Brian
it'd be interesting to have the sendmail process hupped and watch maillog as
that occurs.  If telnet to port 25 of localhost works, all I can expect is
that either dest port 25 is blocked going out, or the servers dns is not
able to look up mx records.  BTW you said you had sendmail_enable=YES in
rc.conf.  There are several sendmail lines in /etc/defaults/rc.conf..

If the automatic check fails, you have to run it manually. I'm surprised
it didn't tell you that, usually it does (at least it always has for
me). Press RETURN to get your shell, then type:

leave out the -y if you want to play it safe and not automatically
repair problems. You may also need to give the full path, /sbin/fsck
