best choice FTP Server
Hope this make sense. Looking for the best way for people to manage their websites. Well I am hosting a bunch of virtually hosted websites based on hostname (single IP machine). I am needing to set up many ftponly accounts (no shell access) which will drop users into the proper directory depending on which username is in use. Is there a way to do host based ftp? I also want to lockout users from logging into the ftp site who have shell acounts but do not need access to update their websites via ftp. what is the best software alternative out there for me? - Noah ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

killing sendmail, using exim
Sendmail is the default MTA, but I have Exim installed and now would like that to be my mail server. I'd like to be able to kill Sendmail startup permanently, and have Exim start at boot time, but I'm not sure how to do this. I did make an attempt. I edited /etc/rc.conf thus: sendmail_enable=NO and added a line saying exim_enable=YES This does not seem to have worked, as the ps command still reports the presence of Sendmail but nothing about Exim. I've checked to make sure Exim is installed: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ which exim /usr/local/sbin/exim I did a grep though the BSD FAQ and the handbook - both had only one sentence mentioning Exim, saying nothing other than it exists.

Multiplicity of dmesg in 4.8
To day I install FreeBSD release 4.8 on a machine form the first time.
This is on a new machine so it could easily have as yet undetected
hardware faults.
I observe the 'dmesg' gives start up information not only for the latest
boot but also information generated in a number of previous boots.
I've not seen this with earlier FreeBSD realeases including 4.7.
Is it normal for FreeBSD 4.8 or should I be looking for hardware problems?
I notice some change in that the files /var/log/dmesg.{today,yesterday} do
not seem to be produced.
Any help welcome,
Malcolm Kay

Re: NFS Problems...
There shouldn't BE a /home2 on HTTPD but I figured out what happened. I copied /etc/group /etc/passwd /etc/pwd.db and /etc/master.passwd from NFSD to HTTPD to sync users and passwords and forgot to edit the home dir with vipw. I just did a global search and replace of /home2 to /home and rebuilt the pwd.db and it mounted fine and apache now serves public_html from the users shells. However, on reboot it doesn't mount from /etc/fstab, I have to mount it manually for some reason. So now I'm down to the one NFS problem. on NFSD: (/etc/exports) /home2 -maproot=0 -alldirs httpd on HTTPD: (/etc/fstab) NFSD:/home2 /home nfs rw,bg 0 0 manually mounting works mount NFSD:/home2 /home Works fine until I reboot. Shouldn't it mount by itself like it used to? What am I missing now? Why doesn't HTTPD mount NFSD:/home2 on /home when it reboots? TIA Hi, In your fstab, what is the bg purpose ? I never seen this option before. Make sure such option is usable.

Help needed with Cyclades-16Ze (multi-port serial card) on FreeBSD4.4-RELEASE-p36
Hello,
I have a Cyclades-16Ze connected to a FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE-p36 system
(according to the Cyclades FAQ, as of May 16th, 2003, FreeBSD 4.4 is
the latest version that Cyclades supports and there are plans to
support higher versions). My intent is to connect a bunch of dumb
terminals at 38400 bps and use this system for a series of UNIX/Perl
training classes.
Unfortunately, I'm having trouble verifying basic operation of the
Cyclades using the provided DCE cable and loopback module. I've typed
up as much information as I could below to describe what I'm seeing.
If you have had any luck getting a Cyclades Z-Series multi-port serial
board to work with FreeBSD, I'd love to hear about what you had to do
to get things working.
I have followed the FreeBSD installation instructions in cz-2.1.1 (the
driver provided by Cyclades), and according to dmesg(1), the Cyclades
cz0 driver appears to have loaded correctly:
$ dmesg | grep '^cz'
cz0: Cyclades Cyclom-Z Adapter port 0xdc00-0xdc7f mem
0xff00-0xff0f,0xff100400-0xff10047f at device 14.0 on pci0
cz0: Cyclades Ze Adapter. Driver Version 211. Firmware Version 334.
cz0: 16 ports detected. Using INTERRUPT mode. Using BOARD RAM.
cz0: driver is using old-style compatibility shims
When I run kermit-8.0.209_1, I can connect to /dev/cuaC01 (port #2)
and view the comm settings:
# With Cyclades provided loopback connector removed:
Communications Parameters:
Line: /dev/cuaC01, speed: 9600, mode: local, modem: generic

Unfortunately, when I connect to the port with the loopback connector
attached and type, I get no response. More than that, kermit seems to
hang (the 'CTRL-\' escape does not work) and I am forced to kill it
with a SIGHUP (killall -1 kermit).
If I add the appropriate line (cuaC01:dv=/dev/cuaC01:br#9600:pa=none:)
to /etc/remote, I can use tip(1) to connect to the port and
characters that I type are echoed back to me, but the last character
typed does not show up. In this example, I've typed abc, but only ab
shows up:
# tip cuaC01
connected
ab
So I have some concerns about basic functionally, but what I really
want to do is run a getty on all 16 ports and connect terminals up to
them. I've tried adding lines to /etc/ttys that look like this (and
running 'init q' to start the gettys):
ttyC00 /usr/libexec/getty std.9600 vt100 on insecure
ttyC01 /usr/libexec/getty std.9600 vt100 on insecure

A couple of questions for 5.1rc1....
I am trying to figure out how to fix an niggling dhcp issue and permanently disable ACPI and enable apm on my HP Omnibook 900. I'm running 5.1RC1, which is great since this is the first time I've managed to get 5.x on this unit. Even my xircom realport cards work. However, I'm having trouble figuring out exactly where to put the ACPI disable line as this machine just crashes and reboots if I leave it enabled. I think it should go in loader.conf, but I'm unsure exactly on the syntax or if that's where it belongs. Also, I seem to remember that you could enable APM with the generic kernel by inserting a line into loader.conf as well. The final question I have is one that's probably obscure. I remember a switch used to tell the dhcp client to send the host name of the laptop to a dhcp server. While it gets a lease perfectly fine, opening up my linksys dhcp table ( at home ) or the NT dhcp server at work I can only see that a machine has that lease. The name of the laptop isn't listed. I had enabled something on a laptop I had a couple of years ago that made it so the name showed up, but I haven't been able to find anything on this since and I have no idea how I did it before or even where I found it. I think I'm missing some probably obvious things. Can anyone at least point me in the proper direction?

I have freebsd 4.4 sendmail 8.12.6
when I modify access in etc/mail
to two simple lines
spammer.com 550 goaway
12.13.14 RELAY
do a make
(*even tried init 6ing)
sendmail happily accepts mail from [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and refused to relay from 12.13.14.*
it is like it won't 'take' the new access.
WHAT is going on? any ideas
Please email me back at
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
thanks in advance
Just out of curiosity, is your sendmail compiled with the access option?
Does your sendmail.cf have any of the following lines (or similar):
# $Id: access_db.m4,v 8.15 1999/07/22 17:55:34 gshapiro Exp $ #
...
# access_db acceptance class
C{Accept}OK RELAY
...
# Access list database (for spam stomping)
Kaccess hash -o /etc/mail/access
If not, then you're probably not compiled to use the access.db file.

You can rebuild your sendmail.cf by adjusting the mc file. A good one (in my opinion) is the generic-bsd4.4.mc. By default, it has: divert(0)dnl VERSIONID(`$Id: generic-bsd4.4.mc,v 8.10 1999/02/07 07:26:02 gshapiro Exp $') OSTYPE(bsd4.4)dnl DOMAIN(generic)dnl MAILER(local)dnl MAILER(smtp)dnl and doesn't include the access_db feature set. Without this feature, the access.db is ignored. So, add: FEATURE(access_db, `hash -o -TTMPF /etc/mail/access') to it between the DOMAIN and MAILER entries and run make in that directory and it will create a generic-bsd4.4.cf file. Just copy that to your /etc/mail as sendmail.cf (backup your original first just in case) and it should do what you're needing.

Or tell that person to receive the 5-day course by sending a blank e-mail to... [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~~ Refer to this course over and over again as you refine your NETwriting skills and become an effective e-persuader. Print each e-mail out, pour yourself a beverage of choice, bring along a pen to jot down some ideas, and take it all to your favorite sofa. This is serious -- your online words must SELL. So for best learning results -- get comfortable. :-) ~~ Fri Jun 06 01:16:00 2003 Netwriting Masters 404 ~~ Hi! No absent checkmark by your name. ;-) Got your USP finished? Super! That means, in just 3 days, you have accomplished the following... o figured out your Most Wanted Response (MWR) o developed your Unique Selling Proposition (USP) o built a detailed thumbnail sketch of your ideal customer and you have... o a good sense of the key parts of an effective sales site. And *THAT* means that you know... o how to end your site (MWR) o how to start your site (USP) o what to add in between. And you know to apply all this for your customer who is firmly sketched in your mind. Like anything else, preparation is 90% of any job. And that goes double for Netwriting... 180%! - Let's continue... Back on Day 1, I said that this course goes beyond writing copy for your Web site. It's for *all* of your online communications ... E-mails, newsletters, free offers, advertisements, contests, theme-focused sites for PREselling (if you belong to an affiliate program), online stores, etc., etc. However, no matter which approach(es) you use to begin the relationship, you can only cement it once you have grabbed your reader's attention first, in a direct one-on-one interaction. For example, what good is creating an e-mail signature file (sig file) based on your great USP, if the recipient deletes your message right away? -SIDEBAR- A sig file is a powerful and free advertisement. With an appealing signature file, every single person you communicate with will read about your business. Its job is to persuade your reader to click through to your Web site. Make it visible with just the right amount of words that are subtle and persuasive. MYWS! covers it all, right down to showing you how to develop and use a sig file most effectively... http://proven.sitesell.com/myws/ -SIDEBAR- Joe Robson, a professional copywriter who co-authored Make Your Words Sell! (MYWS!) describes the Net as a bustling crowded street, full of a million shouting, honking, blaring distractions. Somehow, as a vendor, you have to find a way to flag your surfing visitor so that she will slow down long enough to read what you are saying. Notice that I wrote slow down not stop. That's part two of the Net challenge. Once you catch her eye, your words have to increase interest enough that the visitor stays to learn more info. At that point you take possession of the screen... ... temporarily. So what type of flag do you need? Something extravagant, something noisy, something colorful, something cutting-edge? No to all four. That's just more of the same. Pretend, for a second, you are on Joe's crowded street. What could I say that would make you turn around and stop? Nothing, you think? What if I said your name, just loud enough for you to hear? Of course you'd turn around! Why? Because I just said something that was important to you! Something that connected. Your Opening Headline, pure and simple, *IS* that flag. It must open with the same attention-getting power as calling your name on a crowded street. Only one way to do that... with your USP. Oh-oh. Look sharp. Here comes your ideal customer now, hitting your site. Look at her... She doesn't automatically stop to read... she scans, looking for relevance clues. She quickly breezes your Opening Headline -- if it does not click, her mouse does!... CLICK! G'bye! If your Opening Headline does get her attention, a-h-h-h. She'll slow down enough to read the Subheadings and your Opening Paragraph. And if there's enough there, she'll continue on and read the whole accompanying message... as long as *YOU* keep delivering benefits that help her. -- Whoops! I got a bit ahead of myself. Back to the Opening Headline... Your headline will grab eyeballs only if it has emotional appeal and offers your #1 specific benefit. No logic is involved. It has to answer this question in the reader's mind... What's in it for me? (I can't repeat this often enough.
Re: Repositioning /var | /tmp to avoid disk full condition
Hi, # umount /var # mv /var /usr # ln -s /usr/var /var In /etc/fstab remove the line containing /var Regards SSR From: Joseph Maxwell [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: FreeBSD Users [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Repositioning /var | /tmp to avoid disk full condition Date: Sat, 31 May 2003 11:58:23 -0700 Hello, The 3rd edition of The Complete FreeBSD suggest repositioning the /var directory ( and even /tmp) to prevent filling up that partition. I ignored it and did just that today, filled it up. So I attempted the repositioning with the following recommended command steps and results: cd /var tar cf - . | (cd /usr/var; tar xf - ) cd / rm -rf /var ln -s /usr/var /var However the 'rm -rf /var' returned rm: /var: Device busy After trying all known tricks to me to remove /var, I concluded that since it was mounted from the /etc/fstab I should dismount it and remove the directory (link point ?) and create a soft link there as recommended. However, on rebooting boot was aborted, was thrown into single users mode. After some findangling eventually got the system back up as before with the /var directory, except that now it contains only the /var/cron and /var/run directories. The original /var contained /var/account: /var/at: /var/backups: /var/crash: /var/cron: /var/db: /var/games: /var/log: /var/lost+found: /var/mail: /var/msgs: /var/preserve: /var/qmail: /var/run: /var/rwho: /var/smtpd: /var/spool: /var/tmp: /var/webmin: /var/yp: How can I restore the full functioning structural integrity as before, of course the contents of the /usr/var directory was wiped out somwhere along the way, sans log, sans mail, sans everything.

Question: ipfw2, MAC addresses and divert.
Hi, I'm trying to write some ipfw rules to divert packets from a machine matching a MAC address to a natd process running on a custom divert port. Here are the rules I tries that don't work: ipfw add 99 divert 8669 mac any 00:E0:18:F1:57:94 via wi0 ipfw add 99 divert 8669 mac 00:E0:18:F1:57:94 any via wi0 These do not match and the packets don't get diverted. However, something like this does work: ipfw add 49 deny mac any 00:E0:18:F1:57:94 via wi0 ipfw add 49 deny mac 00:E0:18:F1:57:94 any via wi0 Packets are appropriately denied. This will work, using the ipaddress of the machine instead of its MAC: ipfw add 99 divert 8669 ip from 10.0.0.243 to any via wi0 ipfw add 99 divert 8669 ip from any to 10.0.0.243 via wi0 What changes between using deny versus divert as a rule action that MAC addresses don't match? Any suggestions?

The best place to read is here: http://cr.yp.to/djbdns.html note that djbdns is in the ports under /usr/ports/net/djbdns iirc.

Problem compiling the C/C++ reference for Kdevelop
I recently started playing around with Kdevelop 2.x on my server, and
found it much improved over the older releases. Getting into it, I decided
to download and compile the C/C++ reference documentation, and ran into a
snag. I'm not sure if it is because the configure script is having
problems running on a FreeBSD box or what, but here is what I get:

Spring cleaning giveaway - UPDATE
I managed to get rid of some of my surplus gear, but not all. I had a fellow claim the serial terminal, and some of the K6 CPU's, but never got back to me with an address. If you still want these items, let me know. I had someone else looking for a K6 CPU, but my emails have been bouncing. Right now, I still have: 1) CIT224 serial terminal VT52/100/200 - runs up to 9600 baud reliably, 19200 with occasional problems. ~15 lbs 2) 4x K6-2 266 CPU's. Presently in a tray, but I can divide them up. 3) 1x K6-3+ 450 CPU with heatsink/fan (not sure if it works) 4) Voodoo2 board. I believe this is the 12Mb version of the card. I have the passthrough cable, and I believe the SLI cable as well. 5) 4x 1Mb 30-pin SIMM's 6) 1x Compaq RAM for 386LTE, or similar vintage laptop. Last call - after this, it goes to the dump, or the local thrift shops.

problem with parallel port ZIP drive (100MB)
Help! I can't use my parallel port iomega ZIP drive on FreeBSD. I think that I followed all the instructions (from the ZIP drive article under /usr/share/doc/en/articles) correctly, but obviously I missed something :-( What I did was: 1. Configure the kernel: the (as far as I have understood) important lines of my kernel configuration PCKERNEL were: # SCSI peripherals # the next two are required by vpo device (Iomega ZIP drive) device scbus # SCSI bus (required) device da # Direct Access (disks) # the rest is not necessary #device sa # Sequential Access (tape etc) #device cd # CD #device pass# Passthrough device (direct SCSI access) # Parallel port device ppc0at isa? irq 7 device ppbus # Parallel port bus (required) #device lpt # Printer #device plip# TCP/IP over parallel device ppi # Parallel port interface device device vpo # Requires scbus and da 1a. Compile the kernel with: cd /usr/src; make buildkernel KERNCONF=PCKERNEL 1b. Install it: make installkernel KERNCONF=PCKERNEL 2. Reboot: During boot, the system hung for a few seconds and some timeout messages from vpo appeared on the screen. The last lines of dmesg output are: ppc0: Parallel port at port 0x378-0x37f irq 7 on isa0 ppc0: Generic chipset (EPP/NIBBLE) in COMPATIBLE mode ppi0: Parallel I/O on ppbus0 vpo0: Iomega VPI0 Parallel to SCSI interface on ppbus0 vpo0: EPP mode ad0: 38166MB WDC WD400BB-00DEA0 [77545/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA33 ad1: 12416MB QUANTUM FIREBALL CX13.0A [25228/16/63] at ata0-slave UDMA33 acd0: CDROM FX4820T at ata1-master PIO4 acd1: CD-RW AOPEN CD-RW CRW4048 1.05 20020605 at ata1-slave PIO4 vpo0: VP0 error/timeout (5) vpo0: VP0 error/timeout (5) vpo0: VP0 error/timeout (2) vpo0: VP0 error/timeout (5) vpo0: VP0 error/timeout (5) vpo0: VP0 error/timeout (5) vpo0: VP0 error/timeout (5) vpo0: VP0 error/timeout (5) vpo0: VP0 error/timeout (5) vpo0: VP0 error/timeout (2) vpo0: VP0 error/timeout (5) vpo0: VP0 error/timeout (5) vpo0: VP0 error/timeout (5) Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad0s1a That is, something went wrong here already?! 3.

I have a customer who has 2 servers, one is 4.8-RC and the other is 4.8-STABLE. No problems have been noted on his server with 4.8-RC, however the one running 4.8-STABLE seems to have some random /dev/null permission changes and I'm stumped. He runs a cron script (on both servers) and redirects the output to /dev/null, and everytime he does it on the 4.8-STABLE the permissions change from crw-rw-rw- to crw-r--r-- which is rather odd. Anytime I 'echo blah /dev/null' just in a regular shell, nothing goes wrong, only when in cron. Errors reported in /var/log/maillog are something like this: Jun 2 21:06:56 diamond sm-msp-queue[97747]: h5316uZO097747: disconnect: open(/dev/null) failed: Permission denied Also, cron reports similar: Subject: Cron [EMAIL PROTECTED] echo blah /dev/null X-Cron-Env: SHELL=/bin/sh X-Cron-Env: HOME=/home/sk X-Cron-Env: PATH=/usr/bin:/bin X-Cron-Env: LOGNAME=sk X-Cron-Env: USER=sk cannot create /dev/null: permission denied I cvsup'd, rebuilt the world, mergemaster'd the system to the latest and still experience issues. Was there a change between 4.8-RC and 4.8-STABLE that is causing this that I am just overlooking here? Any advice is greatly appreciated, as of right now I am banging my head.

FreeBSD doesn't support XFree86. XFree86 is a port that you install on FreeBSD. So, if XFree86 4.3 doesn't support your GeForce4 card, then FreeBSD won't either.

Re: Problem compiling the C/C++ reference for Kdevelop
Argh - it appears that I have no libqt.so on my system. Interesting - I
installed from the package system. Having poked through the configure
script, I finally figured out what it was barfing on, and manually
searched to see if it was present, but perhaps in some odd location.
(find / | grep libqt resulted in libqt-mt.so, but no libqt.so)
Next question. Why don't I have a libqt.so?
In the meantime, I'm compiling from source using ports tree. If there is
source for libqt, then I'll know something is up.
Oh, and I accept the dumba** award for failing to notice the
--with-extra-libraries/includes option for the configure script. It now
finds the jpeg libraries.
Thanks,

booteasy / syslog
Hi there, Does anybody know how i can configure booteasy not to remember the last choice i made. I would like it to default to one particular boot (XP in fact), so that my 5 year old does not occasionally find himself looking at a FreeBSD login prompt. Failing that, can anyone recommend an alternative boot manager. Completely unrelated i know, but I am having problems finding how to setup sysogd to accept logs from a remote host, in this case a gateway router at another site. Just a link to a good how-to would help. I have googled but to no avail.

I, too, share the concerns about stability of a newer version. To me, though, that means I feel not yet ready for the 9.x versions of BIND (especially the earlier 9.x versions came with quite a few quirks); but I trust the 8.3.3 and higher versions. I see a parallel with the development of MySQL, for instance. Though its developers were long since at 4.x, they still kept working on the 3.x branch. So, I am running the latest installment of the 3.x series. And my thinking for BIND was the same: I continue to have an eye on the 9.x versions, but, for now, only seek to install the most stable version of the 3.x branch. And since the developers of both BIND and MySQL still work on refining the earlier branches, I guess they can follow, at least part of, my reasoning. - Mark ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Non-Executable Stack Patch
I was wondering if there's any non-executable stack patch for FreeBSD's kernel. I searched in google but all I got was some questions in freebsd-security back from 2001 and an answer saying someone heard about a project like this, but no information at all. Is there any patch like PaX or Openwall available for FreeBSD? I dont want to discuss if its useless or not since there're a lot of techniques to defeat these protections. I'm not interested in patches for gcc or alikes either.

Re: How to analyse squid logs and wierd time stamps
Strange as it seems ... one of our netadmins came
to me with the same query, so I created this little program
#include stdio.h
#include time.h
void main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
time_t clockval;
if ( argc != 2 ) {
printf(\nUsage: ctime time_in_seconds\n);
printf(returns DDD MMM dd HH:MM:SS \n);
printf( in local timezone ...\n\n);
printf(To get GMT use\n);
printf(env TZ=GMT ctime time_in_seconds\n\n);
return;
}
argv++;
sscanf(argv[0],%lu, clockval);
printf(clockval = %ld\n, clockval);
printf (time = %s\n, ctime(clockval));
}
It should be self explanatory once compiled ...

Bind 9 Port
I was planning to ask opinions on this tonight even before I saw the discussion on Bind 8. I'm preparing a old box for Internal, Caching and an unrelated primary master. The security warnings at FreeBSD.org seemed quite clear that I should not use Bind 8 due to 3 flaws that can be exploited if recursion is turned on (such as would be necessary when running caching). At ISC, it stated that Bind 8 should be used only for experimentation or some such warning. I started to realize that my setup work thus far was moot. Running 5.0 January, I went to my ports disk and pulled Bind 9 which would not install at all. I went to ISC and pulled the binary versions which were incompatible with a crypto lib. I checked google and saw nothing specific on the issue. It's either pull the Bind 9 source, compile.and possibly hold off implementation for another series of tests or do something else. Before I go any further with 5.0, is it most appropriate to use FreeBSD 4.8 STABLE April with the Bind 9.2.2 binary from ISC? I just want know it works or if there is a better combination that is secure and functional? ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Canterwood/Springdale platform support questions
Hey all, after some googling, grepping, etc. I'm still at a loss to determine if the forthcoming 5.1-RELEASE (or 5.x-RELEASE for that matter) will have support for the recently released Canterwood/Springdale platforms--notably the S-ATA functionality of ICH5? I looked at the CVS repo and saw some comments and deltas in the ATA code which added PCI Ids and a few other cursory mentions of S-ATA but I'm not expert enough to know from reading the code if ICH5's S-ATA is supported or not. Have there been any northbridge issues encountered by people? Have people tried to install 5.x or 4.8-STABLE on a Canterwood/Springdale (i875/i865--perhaps one of the Abit IC7 or Asus P4C800 moboards)? If so, what was the success level? I'm in the market for a new system and am looking to see when/if support for this platform will hit the tree and if it's already there if there are any gotchas.

cvsup to 4.8 - kernel doesn't build
Hello, I think something changed in the kernel as it is no longer compiling after I do a cvsup to 4.8-stable. It seems it's a common problem looking on line 47 of some .c files to include a file that does not exist. I've noticed this so far in the hifn and ubsec modules, trying to include opt_hifn.h or opt_ubsec.h and causing the build to fail. Can someone else verify this? The solution I've been doing for now is just removing that include line in the code and seems to be building fine otherwise.
