java in a jail
Hi, I'm trying to setup OpenXchange in a FreeBSD 5.4 jail environment, and I'm stuck.

Thanks Glen; I tried that, by adding a line to /etc/hosts with the jail's IP address and localhost as the name, and removing the standard 127.0.0.1 line.

From the question, I guess you are new to FreeBSD etc so some tips: Read the documentation on the web site, in this case you could have easily got the answer from the supported hardware list.

However that normally requires the use of the linux plugin wrapper, which is marked as i386 only. Since the plugins themselve are for i386 and amd64 I suspect it can be done.

early panic and dump
I sent the following post to freebsd-current, but maybe it's better to be sent to questions -- the problem of dumping as such is not a current-specific question... Hi! I tried to install both RELENG-6 and CURRENT, and both kernels behaved the same way: panicked quite early (before init) with a page fault. Has anyone met with this phenomena? I'd like to show you some fancy backtracks, but as it all happened before starting init, rc.conf settings won't help me in getting the dump. What I've read: the dump device can be hard-coded via the dump clause in the config(5) line of a kernel configuration file. But putting dump /dev/ad0s4 into the config file is considered a syntax error, and the man page of config doesn't contain anything about dumping. Another thing which I found on the net suggests setting the dumpdev variable in the loader(8). I can do that, but it doesn't make a difference, and again, the man page doesn't mention dumping. How to get that wacky dump these days? TIA. Cheers, Csaba Note that the above quote is from Developers Handbook and the full quote is: Alternatively, the dump device can be hard-coded via the dump clause in the config(5) line of a kernel configuration file. This approach is deprecated and should be used only if a kernel is crashing before dumpon(8) can be executed. And that I fall into the only if case. Thanks.

How to configure Apache21 port with suexec enabled and suexec_docroot change
On a machine with an up to date ports system running 5.4, I'm trying to use Apache21 port, I know that suexec is not enabled by default and I know there should be a make WITH_SUEXEC_MODULES=yes option, but when I try this I get some info about how to structure the options and then it appears to start the make process. Is this normal? Output: www# make WITH_SUEXEC_MODULES=yes WITH_SUEXEC_DOCROOT_MODULES=/home To enable a module category: WITH_CATEGORY_MODULES To disable a module category: WITHOUT_CATEGORY_MODULES Per default categories are: AUTH AUTHN AUTHZ DAV MISC Categories available: AUTH AUTHN AUTHZ DAV EXPERIMENTAL LDAP MISC PROXY SSL SUEXEC THREADS To see all available knobs, type make show-options To see all modules in different categories, type make show-categories You can check your modules configuration by using make show-modules === Vulnerability check disabled, database not found === Extracting for apache-2.1.4 = Checksum OK for apache21/httpd-2.1.4-alpha.tar.bz2. = Checksum OK for apache21/powerlogo.gif. === apache-2.1.4 depends on file: /usr/local/bin/perl5.8.6 - found Secondly, I would like to run the SUEXEC_DOCROOT option so I can specify a different directory from which to run CGI, like /home. The reason is for Virtual hosts. I've read that CGIWrap is a good/better substitute for this, but alas I would like to be able to take advantage of Webmin/Virtualmin/Usermin for easy administration and I know suexec support is available in those programs, but not CGIwrap. Does anyone know the syntax when installing this port that will enable suexec and change the docroot to /home? If so can you give an example? I'm aware the 1.3 port has suexec enabled already, but I couldn't find any syntax examples in the port to even try and change the docroot. Thanks for the help.

I assume that I need to do that:
export PS1='[EMAIL PROTECTED] \(here i don't know what to do, i assume, that I

I've try to read man bash, but didn't find what I want :(
The manpage of bash(1) contains a section called ``PROMPTING'' that
explains all the backslash-starting escape sequences you can use.
Having said that though, the real ``working directory'' cannot be inlined
in the PS1 shell variable by using an escape. The closest one can come up
with is something that uses ``\w'', but this is not quite right, because it
changes the HOME directory to ``~'' and there is no way to turn that off
(at least, AFAIK).
A workaround for this is to embed a literal ``${PWD}'' in the value of PS1,
but you have to be careful to AVOID having this expanded only at the time
PS1 is set, by using the proper sort of quote characters. Something like
this won't work:
$ export PS1=[EMAIL PROTECTED] ${PWD}]\$
because the shell is allowed to expand the contents of ... quoted strings.
The correct way to set PS1 using inline escape sequences and references to
environment variables like ``$PWD'', which may change between subsequent
PS1 references by the shell, is with something that uses single quotes:
$ export PS1='[EMAIL PROTECTED] ${PWD}]\$ '
I hope this helps a bit.
If you need more details, there's a whole HOWTO document describing a lot
more details than any sane person is ever going to need about bash prompts.
You can find it on any mirror of the Linux Documentation Project. Since
the GNU bash shell runs on both Linux and FreeBSD, most of it applies
verbatim to FreeBSD too.

Demon license?
Greetings! My name is Ray Jenson, and I'm the CEO of a new start-up company in Utah, called Red Heron Corporation. Our company has recently decided that we'd like to start shipping CD's as a service to our customers. We would prominently display a link to the FreeBSD web site, as well as notifying our clients of the ability to download the software free. Here's where Brian Tao comes in: we'd like permission to use the demon on our web site when directly linked to BSD, as well as a composite graphic (sample is attached) that would show the devil alongside other logos, such as Tux, the Red Hat logo, and Microsoft's Windows logo. We're in the process of testing our hardware configurations before offering BSD-powered machines to our clients, which should knock a significant amount off the price. These logos are not currently displayed, but I can send you a mock-up if you need it. Also, I am wondering whom I contact with regard to getting authorization to actually ship the software. We wouldn't necessarily want ad space anywhere, until we're sure that we can provide timely shipments (our processes are still being developed). We are an OEM. We plan to start doing business on August 1st 2005. We will have an e-commerce storefront and will plan to offer BSD along with other products if we can find someplace to supply the optical media so that we can ship it.

Using pppoe : nameserver not provided?
Hi, My second netgear router has crashed in as many years, so I've decided to connect FreeBSD 5.3 via pppoe. Configuration was a breeze, and I have complete functionality. However, I can't determine what nameserver the pppoe connection is directing FreeBSD to use. With the netgear router, the ISP nameserver was shown on the configuration screen, so I had assumed that this value was provided by the ISP's dhcp server. Before I switched over to pppoe I simply added the router address into /etc/resolv.conf and it worked. But now I can't figure out where to get this value. I tried the gateway address provided to pppoe, but that doesn't work. Can anyone direct me to a man page or some other resource that will help me get the proper information over to FreeBSD?

Newbie IPFW Questions
I have a machine set up as a classroom to learn about FreeBSD. It is running 4.11 primarily because anything later can't see my hard drive. As background, my FBSD machine has an address of 192.168.1.110. It is situated behind a hardware firewall (a Linksys router). $pif is vr0. I'm having problems setting up IPFW to communicate with an Onion router. The puzzling part is that I am able to use the Onion router but my /var/log/security file says that some of the packets are being dropped. Following is what I hope are the pertinent lines from my /etc/ipfw.rules file: $cmd 00225 allow tcp from me to any 9001-9033 out via $pif setup keep-state $cmd 00299 deny log all from me to any out via $pif $cmd 00332 deny log tcp from any to me established in via $pif Next is an excerpt from the /var/log/security file: Jul 17 21:49:58 JimsP1G /kernel: ipfw: 299 Deny TCP 192.168.1.110:2218 128.148.34.133:9001 out via vr0 Jul 17 21:49:59 JimsP1G /kernel: ipfw: 299 Deny TCP 192.168.1.110:4959 131.175.189.134:9001 out via vr0 Jul 17 21:50:18 JimsP1G /kernel: ipfw: 332 Deny TCP 128.148.34.133:9001 192.168.1.110:2218 in via vr0 Jul 17 21:50:29 JimsP1G /kernel: ipfw: 332 Deny TCP 131.175.189.134:9030 192.168.1.110:4566 in via vr0 Now my questions. First, why isn't rule 225 allowing all the packets out to the Onion router? It seems to me that ipfw should allow all packets in the port range 9001-9033 out or none. Next, the two inbound packets should be returning in response to an outbound packet. Why are they being dropped? Are they exceeding some timeout? Thanks in advance.

two default routes
I have two ISP connections, a 45Mb and a 6Mb. Depending on what block of local addresses a packet is coming from will determine which ISP I want to send the packet out. In essence the default route used for a packet depends on its source address (for traffic leaving our campus.) Can someone tell me what package I should read up on (ip,ipf,ipfw,other)? or if I should just do this with a real router and not FreeBSD?

Rule 225 will only match packets used to setup the tcp session, once it's established you need another rule that will allow the established session to function. Rule 299 is denying everything from leaving your machine except for the packets allowed by rule 225. Next, the two inbound packets should be returning in response to an outbound packet. Why are they being dropped? Are they exceeding some timeout? Rule 332 is denying all established traffic from entering your machine. So, while rule 225 allows you to establish a tcp session with another system on ports 9001-9033, once the session is established, rule 225 no longer applies and rule 332 is then throwing all those packets away. -Glenn Thanks in advance.

WARNING: Major vnode leakage in RELENG_4 NFS ...
Hopefully that caught enough attention :) I've recently been having problems with one of my servers *hanging* that I've just recently traced down to what looks to be a vnode leak in the latest NFS code in the RELENG_4 branch ... Unfortunately, my 'debugging' is at a stand still, but if anyone is noticing issues with their 4.x, where the server seems to hang, take a look at your 'sysctl debug.freevnodes' while doing some operations on an NFS mount ... To compensate for the issue on my server, I've changed my scripts so that they umount;mount the NFS file system before doing any major operations, to free up the vnodes, which so far seems to be preventing a reoccurance of the lock up ... As an example, I have a process that starts at 1am that does a find across some NFS mounted directories, and my freevnodes has drop'd by ~130k: Jul 18 01:00:00 mercury root: debug.numvnodes: 460354 - debug.freevnodes: 431364 - debug.vnlru_nowhere: 0 - vlruwt Jul 18 01:12:00 mercury root: debug.numvnodes: 460354 - debug.freevnodes: 355260 - debug.vnlru_nowhere: 0 - vlruwt Jul 18 01:24:00 mercury root: debug.numvnodes: 460354 - debug.freevnodes: 307395 - debug.vnlru_nowhere: 0 - vlruwt Without the umount;mount, they drop farther/faster :( Marc G.

FreeBSD is NOT ANOTHER PENGUIN IMPLEMENTATION Secondly, I believe that this concept of posting screenshots is pretty unprofessional and childish. Its like saying Yay! my desktop is prettier than yours. At FreeBSD we concentrate more on quaality than looks. Secondly, FreeBSD does not have any Native GUI unlike few distributions like Mandrake who use a costomized GUI. Thus IMHO a FreeBSD screenshot would just be a black screen with some scribbles on it :-). -- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
