fetchmail question
Hi... I am trying to retrive mails using fetchmail and then deleiver it locally using sendmail. I found that fetchmail adds the following header in every messages that it retrives from the pop server. Received: from localhost (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by localhost.localdomain (8.12.5/8.12.5) with ESMTP id i5QIldIr030563 for [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Sun, 27 Jun 2004 00:32:39 +0545 I am running fetchmail as root user so it has modified the recepient to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Isn't there any way so that fetchmail retains the original recepient ? I tried -n and --invisible options but they didn't help.

Re: setting a disk read only
On Saturday 26 June 2004 22:06, JJB wrote: Security Paranoia It's very important that you completely understand the impact of using the following command will have on your ability to make changes to your system. The simplest thing you can do is set the immutable flag on all system binaries and /etc config files with: chflags schg /bin/*(*) /sbin/*(*) /usr/bin/*(*) /usr/sbin/*(*) /etc/*(*) It seems to me that mounting all partitions from the disk as read only would achieve rather more; and more simply. But neither protects against direct writes to the raw device. And if you are really paranoid about this I think the only solution is a hardware switch. I suspect the linux 'hdparm' also has its limitations; only a hardware switch can protect against software bugs or a successful invasion. Setting the immutable flag on, means the files are marked as being protected from being written over. Once you execute the above command, no process can over write those files thus increasing the level of difficulty for the attacker and increasing the odds in your favor of the attacker leaving error messages in the system log. On the other hand you as root user can not make any changes to those file so marked either. Ever time you want to make changes you have to issue the command to turn off the immutable flag on all the same files. Use this command to do that: chflags noschg /bin/*(*) /sbin/*(*) /usr/bin/*(*) /usr/sbin/*(*) /etc/*(*) You can use ls -lo command to see the immutable flags of existing You could do this to any slice with chflags noschg /*(*) /usr/*(*) what ever Malcolm ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

/boot/loader freezing up?
I just installed FreeBSD 5.2.1 (from the ISO, not the latest patch level in CVS) and quickly ran into a problem related to the serial console. I dropped -h (sans-quotes, of course) into /boot.config so that it would boot with output going to the serial console, as I've done many times with older versions of FreeBSD on other systems. However, all startups after doing this freeze. I get the F1 FreeBSD, F5 Drive 1, Default F1 prompt as usual, then get: /boot.config: -h BTX loader 1.00 BTX version is 1.01 .. and nothing more. Nothing ever comes out the serial port and the system never finishes booting. This install was working fine until I tried getting it to boot through the serial console. Furthermore, because I never get to the point of the prompt to boot into single user mode, I can't figure out how to get in and remove /boot.config so that I can at least start up properly, if not with serial console support. Any clues as to how to hose that file, or better yet, how to get it to stop seizing up during bootup? Thanks for your time!

zorp and freebsd
Hi, is there any way to do transparent proxying in FreeBSD? I'd be happy to have a fully functional Zorp server based on FreeBSD. Transparent proxying is working on Linux via the TPROXY patch, but ipf rdr methods are not really the same. Is there any way to implement that transparent stuff in FreeBSD?

terabyte limit problem with vinum
Shawn, Did you ever find a solution to the terabyte limit problem you reported last year on FreeBSD.Questions (09/06/2003 and 01/12/2004). I'm having exactly the same problem. I've got eight Maxtor 250GB SATA drives ganged together into one big RAID5 volume with a net size of 1636GB. Everything is fine until newfs -U -O2 /dev/vinum/... gives the can't read old UFS1 superblock error. I'm using FreeBSD 5.2.1 csvup'd to REL_ENG_5_2 in mid June 2004. Thanks, Richard Holmes Lambda Software Development Rocklin, CA (916) 390-2057 (cell) [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] (soon to be discontinued) P.S. I've also been having some other problems with vinum. vinum resetconfig doesn't always wipe out all of the vinum drives and seems to not reliably erase the vinum database from all of the drives. After resetconfig, vinum list may show one or two drives remaining. To get rid of them all, I need to do multiple cycles of vinum rm -f -r, vinum stop and vinum start. Have also had problems with empty vinum volumes being corrupted after reboot (remember newfs failed, so nothing was ever written to the volume). After successfully creating and initializing the vinum RAID5 volume, I stop it, then reboot. After reboot, vinum insists on reinitializing the entire volume (an 8 hour process). ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

File tree replication in FreeBSD
I'm looking for file replication solution for FreeBSD. I have a task to replicate about 11G of files with 500k total files count. I say replication not mirroring i.e. I need to copy modified files to slaves almost imidiately after the change. Tried to find some ready solution but fails. There is FAM from SGI but it fails to work properly on FreeBSD (it makes silly stat(2) calls). kevent(2) also don't have anough API to watch = 500k files.

So I have more use of a big cable gutter then a patch panel. Jorn, Sounds like you're a good candidate for a KVM switch, if you have more than one computer in the same workspace. I'd recommend looking on eBay for Cybex KVM switches.

Generally not. To the extent that your configuration of video card and monitor can be treated as a generic (s)VGA display, FreeBSD will be plug-and-play for text mode (booting, console), and will also work genericly under X11. Getting 3D hardware support going for fast OpenGL stuff, and/or doing a multimonitor display mode are more complicated questions, but generally one can get such things working after more tweaking and time spent on your part. -- -Chuck ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[from newbies] RE: IPFW2 + 4.10
On June 28, 2004, Matt [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello freebsd-newbies, I am still fairly new at the BSD level, migrated from linux. The question that I have is, is Version 4.10 kernel compiled with IPFW2, I know the doc's say that CURRENT version has and that it was implemented in 2002, yet the doc's say that STABLE does not have it compiled into the kernel. Can some one please clarify -- Best regards, Matt mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Matt, (Can't reply on -newbies, it's a list charter thing :).) 4.x versions come from the STABLE branch and, so, do not have ipfw2 compiled in the kernel by default. (Instead, they use the older, and more tested, ipfw.) If you want ipfw2, refer to 'man 8 ipfw', the section using ipfw2 on freebsd-stable, for very good instructions.
