pam-pgsql + saslauthd[cyrus-sasl2]

Re: sleep for specified time
someone please tell me how to make a kld sleep for specified number of microseconds its urgent. nanosleep (microseconds*1000); In the kernel? Surely not. I think you'd need to explicitly run the scheduler, and probably use a timer event to resume later. There are established techniques for these things, but the BSD kernel details aren't my specialty... ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Just wondering because not sure whether I should put these data in a database or just use files with unique names. Also will separating the files into many directories help? Looking up .../x/12/34/56 can be done in logarithmic time (i.e., look up .../x/12, then .../x/12/34, then .../x/12/34/56); looking up .../y/123456 (unless some optimization has been added) will require a linear scan through the directory. In short, don't go there... An optimization *has* been added. If you have optionsUFS_DIRHASH #Improve performance on big directories in your kernel (it's been in GENERIC for at least several months) then you should get (in the limit) logarithmic time on *each* lookup. And there's a large extra term in the denominator, as well. The size of the files doesn't matter, and the number of files shouldn't matter in the range of 10,000 files. Whether it matters on 100,000 I can't guess offhand, but obviously it will depend on how often the application is doing a lookup. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

VPN from one Win2k host to a FreeBSD network?
This has been covered many times before, I'm sure, just I just can't find it now I have need. A consultant with one Win2k system behind a home-office NAT firewall needs to speak Microsoft protocols to an NT4 server inside my FreeBSD NAT firewall. Also connect to the Oracle database. I currently have an IPsec VPN to yet another site with an identical FreeBSD firewall as I have here. Microsoft protocols flow over that link as well. The fact her remote Win2k system is already behind NAT suggests to me using Win2k built-in IPsec isn't going to work with racoon? She can ssh to my FreeBSD system. I have not disabled sshd port forwarding. An attractive low threshold of pain might be to use PuTTY on Win2k and port forward to here. Research suggests she would have to disable filesharing, or possibly remove that module, in order to free ports 137-139 so this would work. Might work but isn't low threshold of pain. Simple ssh port forwarding should work fine for Oracle. Next thought would be to tunnel PPP thru SSH. Have found plenty of examples of how to do this Unix to Unix but not from inferior OS's. Yet another thought was to use PPPoE. Win2k should have a PPPoE client. Is there a tool on FreeBSD to receive such connections? Would it appear on the Win2k system as another network interface or would it be her sole interface while it is up?

Ecrix VXA-1 tape drive and FreeBSD 4.5
Hi I've never yet managed to get a solution to the following problem, but thought I'd try one last time before ditching the Ecrix tape we bought last year... We run FreeBSD 4.5 RELENG on our fileserver (sjserver) and I have installed an Ecrix VXA-1 tape drive (IDE) on the secondary on-board IDE controller. The system has an additional E-IDE controller.

Re: Fw: Help:FW Harddisk has no space!
Dear Stanley, good to hear what you found using fsck. I still don't have a sidewinder machine next to me until now... so I'm not quite sure what the option -y will do. I searched the Internet, (I never had problem on file system until now, so I never use those option before.) -y will assume all the interative question to yes. Why don't you use it Interatively, it sounds more save to me. Anyway, the command looks okay for me, but do the following: 1) make a copy (backup) of all the files in /home before the operation. In the case of data lose in /home after the operation. 2) reboot the system after the command. (because you will do the operation on a mounted file system, and it will damage the file system in some way. the best method is unmount it before the operation, then you will be save. The problem is I'm not sure how to unmount /home partition. So, backup and reboot.) if possible, I would like to have the log for fsck command (before and after the operation) you've got for reference, thanks. Good luck.

Of course, you won't know fsck will produce a positive or negative result In the case of /home not have enough disk space, I can't be sure that reboot will fix the problem. Of course the OS will fix some of the filesystem error during start up. (13MB data won't eat 200+MB space). In the worst situation, you may need to restore the whole system by tape.

Re: how to stop resolv.conf from being updated
A sledgehammer approach to make it work:
Comment out the following lines from /sbin/dhclient-script
make_resolv_conf() {
if [ x$new_domain_name_servers != x ]; then
if [ x$new_domain_name != x ]; then
echo search $new_domain_name /etc/resolv.conf
else
rm /etc/resolv.conf
fi
for nameserver in $new_domain_name_servers; do
echo nameserver $nameserver /etc/resolv.conf
done
fi
}
This will prevent dhcp from making a new /etc/resolv.conf file (on boot,
re-boot). Whatever nameserver you enter in /etc/resolv.conf will stay put.
(I had to take this approach some years ago when I was using an apple airport
basestation as my gateway, and the dhcp server software kept assigning
10.0.1.1 as my nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf.)
Check the dhclient.conf man page, too, for less drastic measures.

You can use imap-uw with SSL only, and if you´re gonna use sendmail as the MTA, it´s the easiest choice I´ve seen.

rotating motd
A trivial question, but a question nonetheless! My FreeBSD /etc/motd is a static and rather boring file. I recall that when I used to login to my Slackware machine, it spruced things up a bit by offering some sort of rotating motd, which would spit out a random quote or joke instead of the same ol' static message. Is there a way to simulate this in FreeBSD? Unfortunately, 'man motd' does little more than state the obvious, and describe a method by which to surpress the motd altogether. This, of course, occurs to me as I ssh into my home machine from work! Thanks, ~John - Do you Yahoo!?

My suggestion is to create an /etc/dhclient-enter-hooks containing these

Complicated routing/SSH-FTP tunneling problem
Hi all! I have the following problem: I'm running a FreeBSD SSH server. Some clients can't connect to it. They are on a local network, connected to the internet through another server. This second server used to allow SSH login, and users could then connect to my server from the second server. On the second server, SSH login isn't allowed any more. It won't route any requests to the outside, except for mail. The FTP port is open, however. I heard it is possible to create a tunnel over FTP, so the clients could still get to my server. How could we do this (if it is possible)? Are there other ways?

Re: df -h reporting weird numbers (FreeBSD 4.8)
On my (much smaller) disk, this is the output for root: /dev/ad0s1a 126M42M74M36%/ And 42M + 74M is only 166M - 10M missing? Using dumpfs(8), I see that the value of minfree is 8%: magic 11954 timeTue May 27 07:38:32 2003 [ ...snip... ] minfree 8% optim timemaxcontig 7 maxbpg 4096 And 8% of 126M is 10M, which works out just right. So df(1) is reporting the space available to non-root users, not the actual free space on the filesystem. You can use tunefs(8) to change minfree - 8% is the default. The manpage says that this isn't a good idea, but it may depend on the size of the filesystem. I've noticed that Solaris used to set the same default minfree for everything, but recent versions make it much smaller (down to 1%) on very large disks. This may or may not be a good idea for FreeBSD - I don't know enough about filesystems. - Original Message - From: Joel V [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, May 31, 2003 2:48 AM Subject: df -h reporting weird numbers (FreeBSD 4.8) /dev/ad0s1g 108G 5.2G95G 5%/usr /dev/ad2s1e55G 428M50G 1%/mnt/backups Okey, 55GB minus 0.5GB should be 54.5GB according to my math.

the strings of [O^[[O^[[O^[[O^[[O^[[ after mounting the partitions.
the error is on the console, there not in /var/log/messages or dmesg.
Does the string appear continually or is it only one short string and then
ok? Does it happen if you switch to a different virtual screen?
I bet you have a broken keyboard (zapped during the power outage).

In a followup to my earlier email, the actual error I am getting when I start /stand/sysinstall is: May 30 21:13:25 frodo /kernel: afd0: reading primary partition table: error reading fsbn 0 Thats out of my /var/log/messages.

* So what do I have to do with /stand/sysinstall?
/stand/sysinstall was moved to /usr/sbin/sysinstall in FreeBSD 5.x --
but otherwise, it's the same program.
As it's an official part of the regular system now, sysinstall will be
updated as part of the usual 'make {build,install}world' process.
Under FreeBSD 4.x, as you note, you have to separately update
sysinstall.
Cheers,
Matthew

Re: Help..can I use DUMP? my drive is dying - VINUM ?
But Greg...you wrote VINUM - spriuk a bit I reckon! Yeah look the name of some util escapes me but it copies blok by blok off to an ftp server (German origin I think). I used fsck to check things out but no errors are reported so I can't say why the some util wouldn't restore the /usr/local slice. My main hassle is very poor disk slice design/forethought space wise. I have a huge home partition that is not used because this mail server uses qmail/vpop toaster(thanks Matt S) /var heaps. Don't ant to patch symlinks all over the shop, and I am a no nothing on how to resize (if it is possible) and swap reports getswapspacefailed a lot under load. Hrrummph!

XFree86 4.3.0 anti-alias font problem
Hi, I'm on a 4.8-STABLE box with XFree86 4.3.0. I'm going through the handbook (http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x-fonts.html) and adding anti-aliased fonts to my system. The problem I'm having is adding TrueType and the bitstream-vera fonts to my fontpath via xset. Following the handbook, I've... * Created the directory: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType * Copied .ttf fonts from my windows partition to above directory * run the following command: ttmkfdir fonts.dir I do get a message from ttmkfdir which states: unknown font foundry code SYRC A look at the files in the directory reveals nothing remotely similar to SYRC. The fonts.dir file appears valid but admittedly I'm not sure what I'm looking at. To continue, when I run: * xset fp+ /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType I see: xset: bad font path element (#64), possible causes are: Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions Directory missing fonts.dir Incorrect font server address or syntax In my case, the directory does exist and has the same permissions as the other font directories. The fonts.dir file does exist. And I'm not sure what the 3rd possible cause is. Curiously, I get the exact same error when I try to add the bitstream-vera fonts (added via x11-fonts/bitstream-vera port) to the fontpath. * xset fp+ /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/bitstream-vera/ xset: bad font path element (#64), possible causes are: Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions Directory missing fonts.dir Incorrect font server address or syntax I must be missing something here.
