Re: FreeBSD server behind router-NAT; how to configure sendmail?
Harald Schmalzbauer wrote: Am Sonntag, 3. April 2005 17:36 schrieb Rob: There is a FAQ, that explains: If you want all outgoing SMTP connections to use port 2525, you can use this in your .mc file: define(`RELAY_MAILER_ARGS', `TCP $h 2525') define(`ESMTP_MAILER_ARGS', `TCP $h 2525') I have put this in my hostname.mc file, but to no avail. I'm probably not familiar enough with sendmail way of doing things. But then this is such a simple thing, that it should be easy. I suppose that with netstat -a, there should be a line with port 2525, if above works. But that is not there. I'm not sure if I understand your problem correctly, but what you did with these defines is that sendmail contacts every other system at port 2525 instead of 25, it's not listening on 2525, hence you can't see a tcp/2525 with netstat -a. But I think it should do what you want, if I understand your description right. If you want sendmail to listen at a custom port these defines are wrong. I don't have them in my mind right now, I'm sure you'll find the M4 defines at the sendmail FAQ, tell me if I can help. Uh? So are the rules above right or not? I'm still confused. The header of that particular FAQ was: How do I send using an alternate port? and that's what I want, unless my English is badly deteriorating, which I often feel like when reading sendmail manual pages :(. Anyway, let's go back to what I want sendmail to do, which is possibly a little more complicated than just shifting to another outgoing port: 1) for local delivery, i.e. users on the PC, deliver to the local mailboxes (does that need port 25?). 2) for outgoing delivery, do that over an ssh-tunnel port, e.g. over port 2525: ssh -N -f -L 2525:localhost:25 smtp.my.isp I can create the ssh-tunnel easily: telnet localhost 2525 connects me to the remote smtp server. As you may have noticed, I am a very newbie to sendmail configuration. Thanks for your help! Rob. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Your ruleset is mostly useless without that info. Have you compiled with default block? If not, then your client is open to incoming connections from almost anywhere, and if you have, then your block rules have no use. NFS is udp - I think you can force tcp, but I think this requires changes on the server also. udp is state less, so state full filtering is somewhat a guess work. It works this way for say dns: Your host sends out a udp packet with a dns request, ip-filter knows dns and so expect udp packet back within usually a minute. Now, ip-filter may not now nfs that well, or the nfs protocol may just be wierd. Since you know your nfs server, you could do: pass in quick proto udp from nfs server/32 to client/32 For clarity, I suggest you write two blocks of rules, incoming and outgoing, with both tcp and udp protocols for that server. It makes it easier to see what is going on. Make sure you start your ruleset with your default rules explicit, block in log all block out log all and enable logging on _all_ block rules. Start ipmon to log to a separate file. Default rules should never match, if they do it is indication that there is something you have not taken care of. OK, this is not strictly true, but if they never match then it indicates you have written an explicit rule for each posible packet - ie. you have thought about everything. If you still have problems, submit your ipmon log file and your full tested ruleset.

Even if you want to e-mail the file, it is not a job for sendmail. When you send attachments they are typically base64 encoded, this explodes the file from 5.5MB to about 8MB. You can cut it up in two ways: Use transcode to make shorter clips and send separately or convert the file to base64, then cut it up manually and ask your friend to concateneate the attachments and deconvert from base64. The second option is the low tech - transcode is not designed to be user friendly. But, as everyone suggest: Setup anon ftp, an apache webserver, or give ssh access - all of these are faster, simpler and better. This is posible if you are not NAT'ed and have a reasonably fixed ip. well i can setup a ftp but then i have to leave my pc on all the time , people need to sleep you know and i cant sleep whith PR in the background. irc wasnt made to sent files either and look at it now , its more popular then ftp :) more popular does not mean better, just more popular. So how do i get a movie in my friends mailbox using sentmail ? I was thinking in de lines of sendmail -t [EMAIL PROTECTED] -a movie.mpeg -m hello.txt -s hello ? there is a trick you may find handy: man mail it tells you all about the options and stuff. Then you'll find that something along the lines 'cat movie.mpeg | mail -s movie [EMAIL PROTECTED]' will fail, because you first have to convert your movie.mpeg to base64 and wrap the lines at every 72 characaters. But otherwise you do something like this: 'cat body | mail -s subject [EMAIL PROTECTED]' and the format of body is described in rfc2822 and others, eg. the mime-stuff in rfc2045-2048+/- Read that, if you still have problems, then ask again.

I can't decide now because I don't understand what happens.. So, anybody? This is the frequency of the heart beat. Superficially, every 1/HZ second, a clock tick happens and the kernel is invoked. Then stuff like cleanup and scheduling a new thread happens (this is not the only time when threads get scheduled though). HZ=100 is good enough for most purposes. If the kernel needs to poll some data faster and more frequently, you can crank up HZ to 1000 or even higher. A system with higher HZ is usually also more responsive, but this comes at a price: * The overhead is higher (you need more time to do internal housekeeping, and there's less time available for userland threads) * Processor caches are flushed more frequently, resulting in slower RAM access. A high value for HZ is also not a good idea for slow(er) hardware either. Interestingly, HZ=100 has remained constant for decades (!), despite CPUs getting faster all the time. This is an excellent value for most typical usage patterns. Cranking it up should only be required for special cases. Anyway, the HZ knob is there.

I know I can get the fingerprint of the host key by removing the host from my known hosts and connecting, but there ought to be some more straight forward way, and what about the user keys? And how do I determine the key lenght from the public key file?

Re: ipfilter problems
Thank You very much! Well, the short answer is: there is no keep state in the line pass in quick on rl0 all the dns reply you get back times out because your default rule is block and there is nowhere in the in rules for rl1 that allows the reply back. This makes sense... And I probably have done huge mistake... I thought that these rules are applied two times - once when the packet is about to enter routing logic and once when it exits routing logic the machine and once when the packet exits the machine (like ipfw). If that was the case the rule pass out quick on rl1 all keep state would do... Some recomendations: 1) I have a bit of dificulty understanding your network setup - why do you have two private networks on your external interface? May scetch in a diagram. rl0 is connected to an internet caffe with some game servers. It has only one IP address 192.168.0.0/24. rl1 is connected via ethernet to a wireless bridge. The management address of the wireless bridge (provider's property) is 10.1.6.1. I added alias addr. 10.1.6.2/24 to the rl1, so I can ping it to test connectivity. Recently we have connected some outer clients to the same ethernet network on wich is the wireless bridge. They have addresses 192.168.5.0/24 and have for gateway the our freebsd machine. They use squid server on the machine (like the machines on rl0 do) and need access to some game servers. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Keeping installed packages up to date
Hello, I am a relatively new BSD user, making the move from various Linux distros such as Debian GNU Linux. I have been running Linux servers for quite some time in a production environment, but based on recent events in the Linux world, have made the decision to move to FreeBSD. I have made the move to FreeBSD due to its maturity, stability and performance, not to mention that extended releases are supported for two years from their release, which is attractive in a mission-critical environment. I am trying to determine the best method of keeping my installed packages up-to-date. My current environment does not permit me to use CVSUP for synching my ports tree (due to firewall constraints) so I have been simply downloading the ports.tar.gz file from ftp.freebsd.org. I have followed the steps outlined in Richard Bejtlich's document Keeping FreeBSD Applications Up-To-Date (http://www.taosecurity.com/keeping_freebsd_applications_up-to-date.html) but I run into an issue where a number of installed packages are either skipped or fail during portupgrade. My update process is as follows: -Download port.tar.gz from ftp.freebsd.org -Extract to /usr -cd /usr/ports -make fetchindex -portsdb -u -portversion -v -l -Check /usr/ports/UPDATING for information relating to my applications -portupgrade -varR or portupgrade -varRPP My question is: is there an easier way of updating my installed packages? The process described above is incredibly time-consuming. I would like to know if there is a less time consuming method, since I have managers foaming at the mouth for my servers to be up and online with the latest updates, as soon as possible. Please advise. Thank you for your assistance.

Re: New Freebsd Install Guide Available
As stated in the content displayed by those URL's the Install guide is free to anyone to download and very plainly states the content is contributed to public domain. So why are so many people asking the same question when the answer is so self evident? And this writer takes offence to anybody calling the promoting of this Install guide as verbally trashing the handbook. I don't need to do that. Many others have done that over the years. Any regular reader of the list will know that the handbook content has had many people voicing concern over its less than basic ability to convey meaningful instructions. No need to open that flame war again. Well, both types of documentation are needed. The official formal documentation, which, of necessity , needs to be written in a rather formal language style and other explanitory docs for newbies and those of us who need a more conversational and step by step style at least to get started at things. There are several good books out with more conversational style and some reasonable web sites with tutorials. The only problem with many of the web sites and even the books is that they tend to take a personal preference prejucidial attitude toward things rather than encouraging readers to try out various things and giving them instruction toward those other choices. Some examples are installing and using Gnome. To read some guides, one would think it is impossible to run FreeBSD without Gnome. Some seem to imply it is absolutely necessary to install a third party MBR/boot manager such as Grub to boot FreeBSD, just because they like it. Some tend to think the only possible shell to use is bash or sh and anyone using something else can't possibly get their work done. The list could go on. But, in spite of that, the third party guides are useful and helpful. Just realize that, even more than the official handbook, they represent personally unique situations, opinions and preferences as well as useful information. ... much excised. Another important niche this FreeBSD Install Guide covers is that it is downloadable direct to ms/window boxes and can be viewed using the ms/explorer browser. You UNIX purists have to accept the fact that there are many ms/win users who want to be FreeBSD users and dual win/FreeBSD users out there and this Install guide opens up a bridge to the FreeBSD operating system to service this untapped potential user group. Just watch the posts on the list for the magnitude of ms/office top posters to bear out that truth. The official handbook in its current format does not address this. Since its 3/1//05 public domain release this install guide has been visited 1500 times and downloaded 216 times. This was mostly from people who responded from the UNIX news groups postings. I don't understand - the handbook is available online to any web browser, including ms exploder. Anyway, anything that helps people use FreeBSD is good. jerry ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Sound problem ...
Chris The /boot/defaults/loader.conf contains the defaults configurations and the /boot/loader.conf contains your custom configurations. It is the same a rc.conf and make.conf. You should never change any of the files in the default directory, this is why they are not writeable. When you perform an upgrade, the default files are replaced with the new file from the upgrade. So after an upgrade you will loose all the changes you made in the files contained in the defaults directories, and will have to reconfigure all those settings. The /etc/rc.conf, /etc/make.conf, and /boot/loader.conf are not edited in the upgrade process so you will maintain all your configurations. You must create the /boot/loader file and add the appropriate lines to that file. In summary, do not make changes to the files in the defaults directory, /boot/defaults and /etc/defaults. Aaron Siegel On Sunday 03 April 2005 09:25, Chris wrote: While most of what you say is correct, and I have opted to use loader.conf for sound, this file is actually in /boot/defaults/loader.conf By default, /boot/loader.conf is either non-existant, or has very little in it. Telling the OP to look in /boot/loader.conf for the lines above will confuse him/her. In general, /boot/defaults/loader.conf is a great place to start. Much like /etc/defaults - these are set as the system defaults. putting the lines you want in /boot/loader.conf over rides the system defaults. Also worth noting (as with /etc/defaults) the user ought to get into the habit of editing the proper files instead of the system default files. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Securelevel dont let ipf read rules...
Hi all, i was testing my firewaill with Freebsd 4.11 Release and ipf on the kernel. I have ppp setup to run on every time i turn on the system, i was using securelevel=2 on the /etc/sysctl.conf kern.securelevel=2 and /etc/rc.conf /etc/rc.conf: kernel_securelevel=2 After i see that my firewall was ready to start his job, i decide to change the secure level to paranoid level and change the secure level to 3: /etc/sysctl.conf: kern.securelevel=3 /etc/rc.conf: kernel_securelevel=3 Went i restart my computer, and try to access with my other computer wich use Windows 2k, i try to access the internet, and see that my browser dont find nothing, make some test on it, but no access to the outside world. I go back to my firewall and test the conecction: test#ifconfig This show that i was conected, then test with ping, fastest_cvsup none of then reach the outside world. After this i test ipf : test#ipfstat -hio upsss, dont have any rules on my firewall, the i go to: test# ee /var/log/console I go to the end of the file and read my last boot up messages and see that went my system try read the /etc/ipf.rules and /etc/ipmon.rules the system secure level=3 on /etc/syctl.conf dont let ipf and ipnat to charge his rules set. Operation Not Permite (something like this dont remember the right messages :-\) /etc/sysctl.conf goes before /etc/rc.conf, i was thinking that if i setup securelevel=1 on sysctl.conf and then on rc.conf after ipf and ppp start, setup securelevel to 3, but my rc.conf dosent do nothing. How can i reach securelevel=3 and run my firewall, i dont want to input nothing directly i want that baby(freebsd) do every thing automatically, maybe i need to setup a script??? Or i am doing something wrong? I read man init but dont see nothing about this issue... Thanks all for your comments. NOTE: Freebsd 4.11 Release, ipfilter compile in the kernel.

Re: Which mail server is the best for me?
Kiffin Gish wrote: I would like to setup a mail server but am a little confused about whether to use sendmail, qmail, postfix or whatever. Basically my web server is a simple one to be used for personal use with maybe no more than a 10-20 mail accounts. Those statements made by someone about qmail needing patches are not true. Qmail runs very good here with the same usage you described above. Someone else said that qmail breaks standards. This is true but DJB gives a good explanation for this on his homepage. Anyway i never experienced problems because of this (maybe because it just works?). Furthermore configuration isn't a pain in the ass. It takes you some time to get the idea but then qmail will reveal you endless possibilitys to configure qmail in a very easy and effective way (one word: dotfiles). There are also a lot of examples and FAQs on http://cr.yp.to. Another point for qmail: it will run reliable with daemontools. Finally just have a look at this: $ du -sh qmail-1.03 1.4Mqmail-1.03 $ du -sh /usr/src/gnu/dist/sendmail/ 12M /usr/src/gnu/dist/sendmail/ $ du -sh /usr/src/gnu/dist/postfix/ 14M /usr/src/gnu/dist/postfix/ (postfix and sendmail are from the netbsd source but i don't think this matters.) What are the advantages and/or disadvantages of each choice, and where can I find more information comparing them? Again i can only speak about my own experiences. I had bind running a long time until a friend convinced me to try djbdns. It was like: What? It's that easy to run a dnscache/server?. After that i followed his recommendation straight to qmail and i don't want to miss it anymore or feel the urge to try something different also i haven't run a mail server before. So much for djb advocacy.

I have done this several times in the past with no problems but lately I get the following errors (see below). Anyone else seeing this? I can update other ports just fine... Thanks Rich Well, the output you sent tells us that you have a checksum mismatch for the firefox tarball. Basically, the firefox tarball is corrupt - the system can't verify that it's the right file. Most likely, a tarball was partially downloaded, and for some reason was truncated before fetch got finished with it (e.g. connection dropped, you control-C'ed out to do something else, whatever), or it's possible that the file was simply corrupted in transfer. This is a pretty easy fix --- all you should have to do is delete the bad tarball from /usr/ports/distfiles and start the process again.

a MIME attachment.
Okay, if you really want to use mail, here is what a mail message

You use it like this:

Obviously, you will have to uuencode your own attachment and replace the
one from the example.
On my system mail has no -a (attach) flag, and some Googling told me
mailx might solve the problem, but /usr/bin/mailx just invokes mail
Other mail user agents do have a -a flag though. At least mail/mutt
does and I've used it successfully in the past. If you are not stuck
with mail(1) only, you can always use mutt for this.

I see one syntactical thing you missed.
You have to define your child queues in your altq declaration. Something
like:
altq on $ext_if priq queue {mail, ssh, web}
Also, after you get the syntax right, unless the maximum bandwidth of your
outside line is the same as the maximum bandwidth of your network card
(does this ever happen?) you're going to want to use the bandwidth
keyword in that declaration also, and pick a proper value for it. Picking
the right bandwidth value seems to be an art form that requires a lot of
trial and error and liberal use of pfctl -vvs queue
If traffic shaping isn't working and your queues are always empty, then
the number is too high. If the queues are filling up and dropping too
many packets, then either the number is too low or you're just generating
more traffic than you can handle well.

FAQ: How to Measure Swap in FreeBSD
Hello, I tried to get an answer to this question last year but failed. Today, I think I have it. Q: How do you measure swap utilization in FreeBSD? (Assuming you are writing a script to gather performance metrics.) A: If you are writing a C program, check kvm_getswapinfo(3) and maybe take a gander at the bottom of /usr/src/usr.bin/top/machine.c. A: If you are writing a Perl script: Measure swap activity: sysctl vm.stats.vm.v_swapin vm.stats.vm.v_swapout vm.stats.vm.v_swappgsin vm.stats.vm.v_swappgsout (I believe these results are COUNTER type values, like you get from netstat -inb. You could establish swap activity by plotting changes in this value.)

screwy network/dmz problem
here in our office we have a firewall running Firewall-1 (it is administered remotely from another office in another country). It is set up with a dmz so I can host a web server (which is running IIS), but it works. I am now adding another web server, running Apache/FreeBSD. Problem is the FBSD box does not ping anything. The IIS box can ping the FBSD box and get a response from it. I have used the same network settings on the FBSD box that are on the IIS box, changing only the ipaddress. I don't understand why the FBSD box only responds with network not found when trying to ping anything. Now the IIS box is not a member of any network, it is it's own workgroup called DMZ. Is the problem that the FBSD box needs to be a member of the workgroup DMZ? And if so, how do I get it there?

Maintaining a Minimal Installation for a Small HDD
hi there, i'm currently running FreeBSD 4.10-RELEASE on a Thinkpad 586, with a 1GB HDD and something like 48 MB of ram, with a pentium 133 processor. there is no CD drive, so i installed from floppies via FTP and selected 'minimal' installation, and didn't install any of the ports or src. i now want to upgrade to 5.3 (for various reasons) and i want to have a source tree that i can use to maintain my system via cvsup. in my stable-supfile, i commented out src-all, and then selected only the packages that i thought i would need. i commented out src-contrib, but this produced an error that make did not know how to build bool-array.cc. src-contrib is very large, and there are loads and loads of programs in there that i don't need for this machine (i am really only ever going to use the laptop to ssh into another computer on my network at home and from uni over the wireless network... it's just a portable terminal). i'm pretty confident that i could select what i need, (ie. i think i could go into contrib and select only the programs that i want to install) but i don't really know how to do it. do i need to edit the Makefiles? how can i cvsup only those programs in contrib that i need? my aim here is to have a compact source tree that i can use cvsup to keep current, but only takes up a couple of hundred meg. i'm not sure where to start. the handbook is usually a good place to start but i don't know the best section to look in. any help would be greatly appreciated. cheers iain _ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

More BSD/KDE Sound Problems
I got sound working correctly with my SoundBlaster Audigy MP3+, but I have a problem with sound quality. It sounds hollow, like you are listening to really loud headphones a few feet away from you. Has anyone experienced this problem (with or without an audigy card), and do you have any solutions? I know SBA support for freebsd is new, but I need to know if I setup something wrong, or if it's just because support is new and incomplete.

Re: screwy network/dmz problem
The first thing I would check is that it's the BSD box that you are actually pinging. I'd try unplugging it and trying the ping again from the IIS box. Barring that, I would double and triple check the network mask on the BSD box. Also, make sure you don't have some screwy firewall rules on the BSD server that prevent outbound pings. Next, look at the output of 'netstat -rn' You should see entries for the default gateway as well as your local network. If all looks good there, check your arp table with arp -a. If you don't see anything there, it's probably a layer 1 or 2 problem (cabling/vlan). There are many many possibilities for what could be wrong, but it's hard for us to say. Let us know what you find on those tests. Jerry http://www.syslog.org here in our office we have a firewall running Firewall-1 (it is administered remotely from another office in another country). It is set up with a dmz so I can host a web server (which is running IIS), but it works. I am now adding another web server, running Apache/FreeBSD. Problem is the FBSD box does not ping anything. The IIS box can ping the FBSD box and get a response from it. I have used the same network settings on the FBSD box that are on the IIS box, changing only the ipaddress. I don't understand why the FBSD box only responds with network not found when trying to ping anything. Now the IIS box is not a member of any network, it is it's own workgroup called DMZ. Is the problem that the FBSD box needs to be a member of the workgroup DMZ? And if so, how do I get it there?

RE: New Freebsd Install Guide Available
Many people who are involved in FreeBSD are not programmers. The Project includes documentation writers, Web designers, and support people. All that these people need to contribute is an investment of time and a willingness to learn. 1. Read through the FAQ and Handbook periodically. If anything is badly explained, out of date or even just completely wrong, let us know. Even better, send us a fix (SGML is not difficult to learn, but there is no objection to ASCII submissions). http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/contributing/index.html -- I think this is great, but there should be a project leader to regulate overall structure of the Handbook and other documents as that is perhaps where the greatest amount of work is needed. Could we at least have a mailing list for writers? Date: Mon, 4 Apr 2005 01:03:24 -0400 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: New Freebsd Install Guide Available To: Chris Hill [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Randy Pratt [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii As stated in the content displayed by those URL's the Install guide is free to anyone to download and very plainly states the content is contributed to public domain. So why are so many people asking the same question when the answer is so self evident? And this writer takes offence to anybody calling the promoting of this Install guide as verbally trashing the handbook. I don't need to do that. Many others have done that over the years. Any regular reader of the list will know that the handbook content has had many people voicing concern over its less than basic ability to convey meaningful instructions. No need to open that flame war again. The bottom line is the firewall section of this Install guide has been lifted and used to replace the FreeBSD official handbook's complete firewall section all ready. Any body can lift any part of the install guide and put forth their own effort to use it as source to replace other sections of the official handbook. There is nothing stopping you so go for it. This Install guide has a much more meaningful index which is right there all the time helping the reader to navigate the guides different subjects. The presentation method of the index and content on split screen is more in line with modern web content that every ones sees these days. Plus the install Guide progresses in an step by step manner from installing the base default system all the way up to configurating a private LAN which can masquerade as a commercial user. This address the desired server configuration most often wanted by the majority the first time posters to this questions list. Another important niche this FreeBSD Install Guide covers is that it is downloadable direct to ms/window boxes and can be viewed using the ms/explorer browser. You UNIX purists have to accept the fact that there are many ms/win users who want to be FreeBSD users and dual win/FreeBSD users out there and this Install guide opens up a bridge to the FreeBSD operating system to service this untapped potential user group. Just watch the posts on the list for the magnitude of ms/office top posters to bear out that truth. The official handbook in its current format does not address this. Since its 3/1//05 public domain release this install guide has been visited 1500 times and downloaded 216 times. This was mostly from people who responded from the UNIX news groups postings. The best thing for the FreeBSD doc group to do is request to be an official mirror of the Install guide. Hay the Doc group will have the best win win situation here. They get an alternate view of the install process that is maintained outside of the FreeBSD project. Much like the pf firewall has its own self maintained user guide. Now this is something to think about. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
