Compiling /usr/src for different machines in one location...
I have a firewall machine that's slower (it's just a firewall) for which I'd like to do a buildworld/buildkernel on another faster machine. The old machine is a 500mhz 686 class machine, the newer is 2.8ghz 686 class. I don't know that I'd need to adjust the CC flags for this, however. It's probably in the handbook (I've searched) on how to do this. My guess is passing flags to make in /usr/src and nfs-mounting that from the older machine to perform an installworld - provided that is possible in single user mode.

Sorry, I am running 4.11, and nothing weird that I know of that would
affect ipfw operation.
I found a posting via google from someone with the same question, and
then he replied to himself that reading the man page had given him the
answer, but he didn't say what that answer was. Tried to email him,
but it bounced because my mail gateway doesn't have an SPF record so
his server rejected my mail (even though my server DOES have an SPF
record -- ugh).
IPFW can be compiled with a bunch of extra goodies under FreeBSD 4.x
-- as I remember, this includes the syntactic bits like 'not' and
probably the reverse path stuff too. To do this you need:
IPFW2=true
in /etc/make.conf and
options IPFW2
in your kernel config. Then do the whole {build,install}{kernel,world}
thing to enable that.
Under 4.x this effectively upgrades you to the same version of IPFW which
is standard in 5.x or above. The upgrade was not made the default in 4.x
because it isn't entirely backwards compatible, and for POLA reasons, the
FreeBSD project forbids changing kernel ABIs and so breaking systems on a
routine update within the same major version number.

Complicated routing/SSH-FTP tunneling problem
Hi , I have a similar situation, My provider has blocked all incoming ports so I can't access my PC from the internet side. Did you find any solution? Thank You Szabi Hi all! I have the following problem: I'm running a FreeBSD SSH server. Some clients can't connect to it. They are on a local network, connected to the internet through another server. This second server used to allow SSH login, and users could then connect to my server from the second server. On the second server, SSH login isn't allowed any more. It won't route any requests to the outside, except for mail. The FTP port is open, however. I heard it is possible to create a tunnel over FTP, so the clients could still get to my server. How could we do this (if it is possible)? Are there other ways?

Re: DualBoot
How viable is it to install FreeBSD along side WinXP? (Dual Boot) It works fine. The machine I am typing this on has FreeBSD and XP dual booted.You will want to install XP first or keep the XP that came with the machine and just shrink the XP slice with something like Partition Magic rather than installing FreeBSD first. That is because Microsloth does not play nice with other systems. It always assumes it is the only thing in the world and its install will overwrite what ever you have there. Also, can the BSD MBR be removed once it's installed? I've tried FIXMBR with the WinXP CD and it didn't work sigh Any suggestions? Why would you want to do that. You need the MBR to initiate the boot and let you decide which bootable slice (FreeBSD or XP) to boot from. You can install some other MBR over it, but there is little reason unless you are in to some esthetic thing and thing it is ugly or something. The FreeBSD MBR will handliy boot either. The only unnice thing is that if the XP slice is NTFS, it will identify it as ??? rather than MS-DOS like it identifies bootable FAT slices. jerry --- Mike Albritton [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Newbie Q: freeBSD vs openBSD
I have started with OpenBSD. I was coming from Red Hat 6.2 and to my shame, I didn't knew at that time that the BSD did exist. The very same day I discovered that BSD were free, and that I was indeed running one. same with me i wasn't aware of BSD first, then i was teached by linux community that's terribly bad, then i finally started NetBSD, and then linux were systematically removed. After some years under NetBSD I am now using FreeBSD. It's nice and I spent some time exploring all the sysctl available stuff to play with and it might only be a feel but it looks like it's fast. Well, that's the first impression I got from it. quite same with me, except no OpenBSD at all for a longer time. i ended in FreeBSD recently.. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Processor problem
When the machine boots the BIOS sees two processors running at 1.0GHz and 1G of ram. When I start freeBSD and run KDE through the root acct and go to view the processors it says I only have 1. This is another strange thing. I was running SuSE beforeand it was aware of the two processors, but referred to them as processor 0 and processor 1. In the processor field in KDE it's calling the one processor it seeing processor 1. So does it know about the other processor and just not display the information about it or is it only aware of 1 of the 2 processors??? Please let me know what you think. that you should use dmesg to be sure. and then - default kernel in FreeBSD doesn't have SMP compiled in. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Serial Console Help Needed
Hi all. I'm having a heck of a time trying to get a serial console setup on 5.4. I've recompiled the boot blocks to set the speed to 19200, added set console=comconsole to /boot/loader.rc, turned on /dev/ttyd0 and ttyd1 in /etc/ttys, and added -P to /boot.config. I can see the kernel messages, then it looks like when rc runs, it stops. I don't see anything beyond Mounting root from ufs:/dev/da0s1a, until I get my getty (which, for some reason is ttyd1, not ttyd0). The config for sio0 in dmesg shows sio0: 16550A-compatible COM port port 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 flags 0x10 on acpi0. Any ideas? I'm out of good ones...

Afaik, You must upgrade to 5.x first and then You can move to 6.x. Yes. It might be easier to do a binary upgrade (i.e. download 6.0 release media, use sysinstall's 'upgrade' option), or even to backup and reinstall from scratch. Anyway FreeBSD 4.x uses an older and slower filesystem UFS1, whilst FreeBSD 5.x and newer uses UFS2.

If the upgrade is small (e.g. 5.3-RELEASE to 5.3-RELEASE+security patches), then you can often get away without needing single-user mode. If you're trying to upgrade to a new version, this becomes increasingly dangerous. And in any event you need to have a recovery plan thought out, for the cases when something goes wrong.

Then run: # mergemaster -p # make installworld # mergemaster # reboot Is it going to be possible to do this upgrade without access to the server? Not with 100% safety. If the upgrade is small (e.g. 5.3-RELEASE to 5.3-RELEASE+security patches), then you can often get away without needing single-user mode. If you're trying to upgrade to a new version, this becomes increasingly dangerous. And in any event you need to have a recovery plan thought out, for the cases when something goes wrong.
