Re: how to kill a while loop...
In the last episode (Jan 28), Josh Brooks said: Hi, I ran a command like: while `some command` ; do something ; done and I missed the PID output when I backgrounded it. Now I want to kill this while process, but I cannot find it anymore. I tried to ps auxw | grep while, and grep do and so on, but I cannot find the process to kill it. Two ways: 1 - Type in jobs -l, which will list all the backgrounded jobs your shell knows about and their pids. Then run kill nn, where nn is the process id, which is the second number. The first is the job number, which will usually be 1. 2 - If you exited your shell or disowned the job, it won't show up in 'jobs'. Run ps axl | egrep 'mycommand|PID', and kill the command's parent process (PPID column). -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Does anyone have any examples of how to accomplish what I want? If this is to be a permanent freeze, you could put it in to the /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf. Look for HOLD_PKGS. It defines an array of name globs that expand to the name of the held ports. For example, I use Exim 3 and don't want to have it upgraded to 4, so my HOLD_PKGS looks like this: HOLD_PKGS = [ 'bsdpan-*', 'exim*', ] The bsdpan one seems to be there by default.

RE: How to set-up two 'defaultrouter' IPs?
See reply below... To create a somewhat redundant network connection, my friend has connected to business level ADSL connections at his home (32 IPs each). So, he has two routers, on two different networks (ATT/UUNET) and what he's doing is multi-homing his NIC cards and via some interesting DNS set-up, theoretically, there is some network redundancy or failover or something. Anyway, here's the question... how would I set-up two 'defaultrouter' IPs in my rc.conf? Is that were I would do such a thing? I'd like to have the same scenario that he's building with a multi-homed NIC and two IPs per VirtualHost directive. I guess there are actually many steps to accomplish this (as I now start to think about it) but I'm wondering how to set-up the networking piece first. Many thanks in advance, Two truly default routes is not really sensical. You generally play games based on source address, TCP port, or something like that, and make sure that they NAT separately. [It has to involve NAT, because for networks that small, you can't get routes distributed widely enough to do true multihoming.] So the answer depends on exactly what hack you want to do. What I'd like to do is this... right now my NIC answers 212.12.12.212 (for instance) externally and that's the address I use for Apache's NameVirtualHost directives. I would also like my NIC to answer on 252.12.12.212 (second network connection) and serve the same VirtualHost directives... So, what happens is, in NS1.NAMESERVER.NET (which is on the 212 network) the A record for my box is 212.12.12.212 and, if that network should fail, the requests will be answered by NS2.NAMESERVER.NET (which is on the 252 network) and it has an A record for my box of 252.12.12.212. So, in effect, the name server's availability actually directs the traffic to the available network connection. Does that make sense? p.

RE: disconnecting nic
The problem you describe is becoming common in the 4.x versions of FBSD. I have seen these solutions voiced previously in this list. 1. Check the PC's bios, look for a toggle to disable plug-n-play function. 2. Check that your PCI Nic card is not in the first or last PCI expansion slot on the motherboard. 3. There is a problem with autonegotiation of the media settings between your NIC and your switch. The default setting of auto means the Nic card should sense the Lan for the switch or hub and set it's media type to match. There have been reports of the Nic Card media type changing on the fly between 10/100 and halfduplex and fullduplex causing the network to freeze up. To stop this use the ifconfig command in the rc.conf file to force the media type. Like this ifconfig_xl0=inet 10.0.10.2 media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex 4 add option PCI_ENABLE_IO_MODES to your kernel source and recompile. See LINT 5. add device puc option PUC_FASTINTR to your kernel source and recompile. See LINT 6.

Re: cvsup error
Try adding the following line to the /etc/hosts file: 192.168.1.10myhostname.domain.com where 192.168.1.10 is your hosts IP. Then take a look in /etc/rc.conf for the hostname= directive and verify that it is the same as the entry in /etc/hosts.

help understanding hostname cofig
Hello, I need a little help understanding how I should configure the hostname in our application. I am trying to install snort from a how-to on the snort website. It uses mysql,acid,apache and snort with the OS being freebsd 4.6. It looks very straight forward to follow, but another tech and I cannot seem to understand what we are doing wrong. We don't have a DNS server on site.The plan is to put the snort box between the internet firewall and the LAN. The firewall is also the dhcp server. So exactly what do we want to put for a qualified domain name?? The plan is to put the snort box between the internet firewall and the LAN. The firewall is also the dhcp server. Problem is that the OS says it cannot resolve the hostname. Similar problems come later with mysql. I have looked at several lists and books on the subject but not turning up a lot of information related to my problem. I know this can't be that hard. We would appreciate any guidance.

This is ok on one machine. Copy the script to the other machine, and
swap out all of the 'local' variables with the values of the 'remote'
variables and vise versa. This will allow the keys to be configured
correctly. If this still does not work, let me know. I wrote a perl
program that will automatically configure a vpn tunnel for you, and it
produces 2 scripts. One for localhost and the other for remote host. It
works for me every time.

kern polling and kern.polling.user_frac
Greetings I am running 5.0 and wish to enable kern.polling.enable as per the NOTES file in /usr/sys/src/i386/conf/NOTES When I try to do a sysctl kern.polling.enable I get no such oid. Doing a sysctl -a | grep polling returns nothing. Also if I try to do a sysctl kern.polling.user_frac I as well get no such OID. Is this value outdated in 5.0? I did a sysctl -a and looked through all the settings and did not find much closely associated. I wish to compile it right into the kernel yet I thought doing a sysctl first and seeing how the machine responds first would be wiser.

Re: How to set-up two 'defaultrouter' IPs?
Phillip Smith (mailing list) [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: What I'd like to do is this... right now my NIC answers 212.12.12.212 (for instance) externally and that's the address I use for Apache's NameVirtualHost directives. I would also like my NIC to answer on 252.12.12.212 (second network connection) and serve the same VirtualHost directives... So, what happens is, in NS1.NAMESERVER.NET (which is on the 212 network) the A record for my box is 212.12.12.212 and, if that network should fail, the requests will be answered by NS2.NAMESERVER.NET (which is on the 252 network) and it has an A record for my box of 252.12.12.212. So, in effect, the name server's availability actually directs the traffic to the available network connection. Does that make sense? Sure. What you want isn't two default routers, because at any given time there's only one way you want to route this traffic. What you really want is to change default router when the outside world sees one as down. A little tricky, because the system itself might not see main network as problematic, even though the rest of the Internet does.

Many thanks,
You can write a simple start-up script that does that for you. Here's
what I have in /usr/local/etc/rc.d:
#!/bin/sh
PORTSENTRY=/usr/local/bin/portsentry
case $1 in
start)
${PORTSENTRY} -tcp echo PortSentry starting in TCP
mode...
${PORTSENTRY} -udp echo PortSentry starting in UDP
mode...
;;
stop)
killall `basename ${PORTSENTRY}`
;;
*)
echo
echo Usage: `basename $0` { start | stop }
echo
;;
esac
As far as I know, portsentry doesn't come with one, so you can just
write a nice short script like the one above, if you like. Make sure
though, to make it executable before rebooting.
Hope this helps.

Stacey

sysinstall suddenly quitting
Hey all, I've got a 4.6 system that I'm trying to get to 4.7. I've dropped on the sysinstall from 4.7(per the docs). I run it as /stand/sysinstall installUpgrade. When I get to the Choose Installation Media screen I go into Options to change the Release Name. Regardless of what I do on this screen, in fact even if I do nothing at all, when I press 'Q' to quit sysinstall exits, dropping right to the commandline. On the screen it says chflags'ing old binaries - please wait. There doesn't seem to be anything about this in docs or list/newsgroup archives and I've tried a number of different things - making sure I'm root, perms on chflags, getting chflags from the 4.7 dist, even different term types and keyboards (hey - maybe there was some weird key bounce going on ;).

Need helping lengthening timeouts for sendmail...
Hi all - Two weeks ago nwlink.com upgraded it's mail servers. Ever since that time I can not email anyone whose email is handled by those servers. What's even more frustrating is that my home server, same setup, same DSL (through nwlink.com even), but on a different subnet cause it's in a different city, has no problems whatsoever.

I've gone round and round with them (for two weeks now) and they agree there's something wrong, and are now looking into their network issues, but in the meantime, I need help getting mail to send?

ucspi-unix compile problems
I'm having a problem compiling ucspi-unix-0.36 on the new mail host
I'm configuring to run qmail. Although its sister program,
ucspi-tcp-0.88, compiled just fine, ucspi-unix's compile bombs due to
a missing library:
su-2.05b# make
( echo '#!/bin/sh'; echo 'main=$1; shift'; echo exec `head -1
conf-ld` '-o $main $main.o ${1+$@}' -lsysdeps; ) load
chmod 755 load
( echo '#!/bin/sh'; echo 'source=$1; shift'; echo 'base=`echo
$source | sed -e s:.c$::`'; echo exec `head -1 conf-cc` '-I.
-o ${base}.o -c $source ${1+$@}'; ) compile
chmod 755 compile
./compile unixclient.c
./compile env.c
env.c:4: sysdeps.h: No such file or directory
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/local/src/ucspi-unix-0.36.
So it can't find sysdeps.h. A locate can't seem to come up with one,
either. A Google search using ucspi-unix, sysdeps, and freebsd
turns up empty. What the heck is the sysdeps library and why don't I
have it? (Or why does ucspi-unix need it?)
According to my understanding, vmailmgr, the password authentication
module I plan to use with qmail and courier-imap, needs ucspi-unix.
Specifically, it needs a program named unixserver (compiled with
ucspi-unix), which is used to start vmailmgrd:
/usr/bin/unixserver /tmp/.vmailmgrd /usr/local/sbin/vmailmgrd \
21 | /var/qmail/bin/splogger
I'm not sure if something else, perhaps ucspi-tcp, can substitute.
In fact, given the huge thrash involved in installing qmail and its
myriad of support programs, I'm not sure of much anything at this
point.

Re: help understanding hostname cofig
Hi! We don't have a DNS server on site.The plan is to put the snort box between the internet firewall and the LAN. The firewall is also the dhcp server. So exactly what do we want to put for a qualified domain name?? The plan is to put the snort box between the internet firewall and the LAN. The firewall is also the dhcp server. I assume you are using RFC1918 (private) IP addresses on your LAN behind the firewall. In that case the hostname is purely up to you to invent. From the root shell, enter the following command: hostname snortbox.our.net Add a line like this to /etc/hosts: 10.0.0.1snortbox.our.net snortbox (assuming 10.0.0.1 is the IP address of your snort box) Add a line like this to /etc/rc.conf: hostname=snortbox.our.net If you want to be able to access the snort box by name from other hosts on your network, then you need to also modify /etc/hosts on these other hosts accordingly. You probably don't want to let your DHCP server to assign a dynamic IP address to your snort box. -- Toomas Aas | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.raad.tartu.ee/~toomas/ * Why is the third hand on a watch called a second hand?

Re: How to set-up two 'defaultrouter' IPs?
On Wed, 29 Jan 2003, Lowell Gilbert wrote: Does that make sense? Sure. What you want isn't two default routers, because at any given time there's only one way you want to route this traffic. What you really want is to change default router when the outside world sees one as down. A little tricky, because the system itself might not see main network as problematic, even though the rest of the Internet does. Not multiple default routers, but multiple default routes, in this case two, with different metrics to control failover. This is easy to do on some systems (Cisco and Solaris), not so on others. Don't know about FreeBSD, but I'll take a look later if the question hasn't been answered already.

RE: VirusProtection and IMAP
IMAP: Where can I tell freeBSD which IMAP software should he use? Like I installed cyrus and imapd-uw. So which one the system is using and how can I switch between them? One thing that I think should be offered up is that while many people don't really believe in the idea of a virus protection software for your physical sessions with the machine, many will tell you that it's nice to use for whatever MTA you use to receive the email with. F-prot has a FreeBSD native scanner that works with the amavisd port (/usr/ports/security/amavisd or the variants) to help you filter viruses out of the *email* that would be passing through your machine. To tell which server your machine is using, you could #telnet localhost 143 Which would probably return something telling you the version make of the IMAP software you're currently using. Uw-imap is a pretty easy installation, but you will have to do more than just install cyrus in order to get it to work with your system.

However, if I ping out, the connection starts working again. I'm guessing the card is somehow going to sleep and not responding until it sees outgoing traffic. The ARP entry still exists on the switch and router. I've had this problem with various versions of FreeBSD. What kind of switch are you connecting everything together with? The only time I've ever seen this is with a switch that had an option to disable interfaces that had too much broadcast traffic. If the machine set idle too long, the ARP and other messages it was sending would cause it to be shut off by the switch, but as soon as you started sending some non-broadcast traffic again (such as ping), it would re-enable the port and things would work OK. I would suggest disabling that feature of the switch (if that's the problem) unless you're having problems with excessive broadcast traffic on your network. The workaround I used (because the sysadmin refused to reconfigure the switch because he didn't understand it) was to create a daemon ping process using and using an -i 30 switch. For example, I had a script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d like so: #!/bin/sh /sbin/ping -i 30 192.168.5.27 Where the IP is simply the IP of another machine on the network. This doesn't hurt much if the network is so idle that it's causing the switch to shut off ports anyway. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

group question - 15 member limit?
What I have is this, a list of users and I want the user www to be a member of all their groups.. I have this in /etc/groups d50:*:1026:www d49:*:1027:www d51:*:1028:www (etc etc etc - there are about 80 users like this currently.) If I do 'id www' it only shows www in the first 15 groups listed in /etc/groups - this is really the case too because if I su to www and try to access one of the files (that are perm 770) - I get permission denied. So it's not just a screw up with 'id' - it appears that www really isn't in any of those other groups! I'm adding groups and group member via 'pw' so I'm pretty sure the syntax is right.. Is there some kind of limit that would prevent my www user from being in more than 15 groups?

Re: ucspi-unix compile problems
There's nothing like posting to mailing lists to get the answers to your problems. Not that the answers always come from the list members. Nine times out of ten, after I post to a list I keep digging in archives and documentation and ferret out the answer on my own. Oddly, it doesn't seem to work if I don't post to the list first. That was the case this time as well. I posted my problem compiling (running FreeBSD 4.7) ucspi-unix, required by vmailmgr, to freebsd-answers, then joined the vmailmgr list and posted here. Almost immediately, I came across a post in the ucspi-unix list archive that said ucspi-unix, qmail-autoresponder, and a few other programs by Bruce Guenter required his proprietary bglibs in order to compile, so I located and downloaded bglibs-1.005. Unfortunately, bglibs wouldn't compile either. So I joined the bgware list and posted the problem. Shortly afterward, I discovered some esoteric posts in the archives that discussed the need for some defines in one of bglibs' files, although it wasn't absolutely clear specifically what should be added and to which file. But with nothing to lose, I added the following to only unix/sig_all.c: #define SIGMAX _SIG_MAXSIG #define _NSIG 32 Voila! It compiled like a champ. I installed and then cd'ed to ucspi-unix. Boom! Same deal, smooth as glass. Ditto with qmail-autoresponder. Time to start vmailmgr to see if my efforts were not in vain. I wanted it to run under the supervise facility, so it would automatically be restarted if it quit. There was no documentation on how to set up supervise specifically to run vmailmgr, so I cloned one of the qmail supervise setups and crossed my fingers. And what do you know? It started perfectly and came up: 38248 con S+ 0:01.04 supervise vmailmgrd 38249 con I+ 0:00.00 supervise log Many thanks to the list.

Quick question that i couldn't find in a quick look through the internet... I bought one of the nifty little devices called a joystick that plugs into the USB port.

I think you can bump it and rebuild world with no ill effects, except possibly NFS accesses may still only see the first 16. I dont know what effect bumping it up to 100 would do :) A while ago at work we had a FreeBSD machine compiled with NGROUPS set to 128 or 256 (Can't remember which). No problems at all, but we weren't using it as an NFS server. The machine in question has since been replaced by a Redhat linux machine, and we're not allowed to tinker with the kernel - much to my annoyance ...

Mozilla 1.2.1: No running window found
I've just used portupgrade to upgrade from mozilla 1.0 to 1.2.1. This is what I get: $ mozilla No running window found.

The port is not broken. It does work for quite few people. What I recommend is first trying with the standard CFLAGS (-O -pipe). If it still fails, try building with -DWITHOUT_XFT defined, and see if that helps. If it still fails, you will need to use gdb to analyze the crash to see what's going on.

vnc at start-up
I've installed vnc from the ports and it works fine, but it's annoying to have to log on to my server and start the vncserver every time I want to connect from my desktop PC. One problem is my server has been randomly rebooting (I suspect hardware problems but ...), so I can't just leave the server running. I tried putting a start-up script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d and it works, but in the vncserver script itself there is a loop which checks for the availability of commands, including xauth. Apparently during boot-up the PATH doesn't include /usr/X11R6/bin, so on boot-up one of the messages I get is 'vncserver: couldn't find xauth on your path' and the server isn't started. Can anyone suggest what I should do to make this work? -- Roger To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

The new Mozilla supports Xft for anti-aliasing of fonts. This is enabled by default as this seems to be a desired feature. Moving forward, you should keep WITHOUT_XFT defined in /etc/make.conf if you're having problems.

another go at natd
hi all this is a followup to an email i sent out to the list a week or so ago. i was having trouble getting the following natd setup to work: ---snip-- two machines - one has two nics, one has one nic. i'd like to set up the machine with two nics as a gateway/natd box, and place the second machine behind it. gateway machine's kernel has been recompiled with: options IPFIREWALL options IPDIVERT options IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE gateway machine's /etc/rc.conf: defaultrouter=129.x.x.1 hostname=enquirer.medill.northwestern.edu ifconfig_xl0=inet 129.x.x.35 netmask 255.255.255.0 ifconfig_xl1=inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 gateway_enable=YES firewall_enable=YES #firewall_script=/etc/rc.firewall firewall_type=OPEN natd_enable=YES natd_interface=xl0 natd_flags= second machine's /etc/rc.conf: defaultrouter=10.0.0.1 ifconfig_xl0=inet 10.0.0.2 netmask 255.0.0.0 'ipfw list' on the gateway machine gives me: 00050 divert 8668 ip from any to any via xl0 00100 allow ip from any to any via lo0 00200 deny ip from any to 127.0.0.0/8 00300 deny ip from 127.0.0.0/8 to any 65000 allow ip from any to any 65535 allow ip from any to any i'm following the instructions in the handbook http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.IS...dbook/natd.html snip- -turns out my setup above was exactly right. i was informed by various members of the list that my original problem was that i was running a connection from the client machine directly to the internal nic on the gateway box, and all i needed to do was to run everything through a hub to get it to work. so, i'm nat'ing. i'm redirecting packets to my internal lan on the gateway box. i guess my question to the list would be: is a vanilla natd setup like this enough? today, i tried changing firewall_type to '/etc/ipfw.rules' instead of OPEN, it's been problematic. i'm having trouble getting the following /etc/ipfw.rules file working with my nat setup: add 00100 allow ip from any to any via lo0 add 00200 deny ip from any to 127.0.0.0/8 add 00300 check-state add 00301 allow tcp from 129.x.x.20 to any in setup keep-state add 00302 allow tcp from 10.0.0.2 to any in setup keep-state #allow tcp in for ftp,ssh, smtp, httpd add 00304 allow tcp from any to any 21 in setup keep-state add 00305 allow tcp from any to any 22 in setup keep-state add 00306 allow tcp from any to any 25 in setup keep-state add 00307 allow tcp from any to any 80 in setup keep-state #allow tcp in for webmin port add 00308 allow tcp from any to any 1 in setup keep-state #deny rest of incoming tcp add 00309 deny log tcp from any to any in established #from man 8 ipfw: allow only outbound tcp connections i've created add 00310 allow tcp from any to any out setup keep-state #allow udp in for gateway for DNS add 00400 allow udp from 129.105.49.1 to any in recv xl0 add 00401 allow udp from 129.x.x.20 to any in recv xl0 add 00402 allow udp from 10.0.0.2 to any in recv xl0 #allow all udp out from machine add 00404 allow udp from any to any out #allow some icmp types (codes not supported) ##allow path-mtu in both directions add 00500 allow icmp from any to any icmptypes 3 ##allow source quench in and out add 00501 allow icmp from any to any icmptypes 4 ##allow me to ping out and receive response back add 00502 allow icmp from any to any icmptypes 8 out add 00503 allow icmp from any to any icmptypes 0 in ##allow me to run traceroute add 00504 allow icmp from any to any icmptypes 11 in add 00600 deny log ip from any to any sorry, this is long winded. any comments on how to get the above rules working with my nat setup, or if these measures are even necessary would be greatly appreciated. thanks redmond msg17195/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
