You seem to have addressed the most expensive issue first (bad card), which is kind of backwards, but whatever. You've switched ports, that's good too, now switch cables. Hi people, thanks for your answer, right now i googling around and see how to handle this problem i have. Im home right now, here i have one NIC Intel (fxp driver) with 2 ports on it, this is my firewall machine but tomorrow i will take to my work, i dont have access top my server right now , but i will give you the info you request ASAP. I have another Linksys NIC, some posts say that those 2 NIC's on freebsd are really good. Another thing that i will do, i dont know if it works, disable the drivers form the kernel and just use the modules and see what hapend :-? But i need to see first how my backups finish, and will let you you now guys.

Hello, i have a problem with some strange spam emails, which lock up my email reception. The problem is the following : I am using fetchmail to download my email (from a pop3 server), and fetchmail passes the email to my local sendmail daemon who gives it to my local imap server (cyrus). This works fine. But sometimes i got a spam email, which has an unresolveable dns origin, and this makes my sendmail crazy in a way, that sendmail wants to resolve but gets a timeout (around 20s). In the meantime the fetchmail which is actualy waiting for sendmail to accept the message gets a timeout from the pop server where it is connected to. Because of that timeout fetchmail stops receiving email from pop server and tries again next time, but next time it will start with the same spam email again, and it all starts again, actually no more new mails will arrive until i delete this particular email from the pop server manually. Is there a way to tweak the timeout behavior of sendmail, or maybe even no dns resolve option for sendmail, or even better some way to tell fetchmail to use the idle command to keep the connectio to the pop server open ?

Re: Unable to compile libapreq2
Hi all, With Philip's encouragement and some extra work thrown in, I've made the following conclusion: 1. If I install Apache 2 + MP2 + libapreq2 using the existing port tree in FBSD6.1, it's fine. 2. If I install FBSD6.1 + cvsup-without-gui + updated port tree + Apache2 + MP2 + libapreq2, it reports 'cannot find -lexpat' error. 3. If I install FBSD6.1 + cvsup-without-gui + Apache2 + MP2 + libapreq2, it reports 'cannot find -lexpat' error. Is there something in cvsup-without-gui that screws up expat? Philip M.

Re: Updating jails
I may give you a script how to update ports in the jails. You just need to have the same ports installed on your base system and build them with making a package ready for instalation. Personally I use: PACKAGES=/usr/ports/packages /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade -v -i -a -y -p Then if you have made jails in /usr/local/jails use the following script: #!/bin/sh echo *** echo * * echo *Preparing mount points * echo * * echo *** /sbin/mount_nullfs /usr/ports/ /usr/local/jails/jail1/usr/ports /sbin/mount_nullfs /usr/ports/ /usr/local/jails/jail2/usr/ports ... /sbin/mount_nullfs /usr/ports/ /usr/local/jails/jailn/usr/ports echo echo echo *** echo * * echo *Executing update script * echo * * echo *** echo echo for jid in `/usr/sbin/jls | /usr/bin/cut -c 1-6`; do if [ $jid != JID ]; then echo Updating: echo `/usr/sbin/jls | /usr/bin/grep JID` echo `/usr/sbin/jls | /usr/bin/grep $jid ` echo -n Continue with upgrade [y/n]: read oks if [ x$oks = xn -o x$oks = xN ]; then echo Skipping JID=$jid echo echo else /usr/sbin/jexec $jid /usr/local/bin/updateports.sh fi fi done echo echo echo *** echo * * echo *Removing mount points* echo * * echo *** echo echo /sbin/umount /usr/local/jails/jail1/usr/ports /sbin/umount /usr/local/jails/jail2/usr/ports /sbin/umount /usr/local/jails/jailn/usr/ports This asks you for updating particular jail and executes /usr/local/bin/updateports.sh in each jail (you should copy it in every jail). You can use this: #!/usr/local/bin/bash echo echo * * echo * Updating indexes * echo * * echo /usr/local/sbin/portsdb -u echo echo * * echo * Fixing database * echo * * echo /usr/local/sbin/pkgdb -Fv echo echo * * echo * Updating ports * echo * * echo /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade -v -i -a -y -f -PP That is what I use in my jails.

sshd stalling upon login
Hi there, I just built some new FreeBSD servers, and I am trying to log into one of them via sshd. I am finding that the is a lag between the connection and receiving a prompt. most likely this is because the IP address I am coming from does not resolve. But I am able to log into other servers via sshd from the same host that does not have IP inverse resolution. So I copied the /etc/ssh/sshd_config and /etc/resolv.conf from the host that does not stall me to the server that was stalling. that did not clear up the Problem. what other configuration files need to be augmented to get rid of this stall? clues please?

I've found looks to be in the region of 250 $US. As I believe I've mentioned,
the organisation is a school, and that sort of money just isn't in the kitty.

Re: Ruby gaining weight?
Man try portupgrade -P as a cure. It's not 100% solution, but it's better that stabbing your machines to death. Else build the package on another host and update your machines with it. For piggy questions - cannot answer. Sorry Cheers, 2006/10/2, Pete Slagle [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Recent versions of ruby18 seem to take more than 145 MB of virtual memory to build with portupgrade or make install clean. I have several classic boxes running bind and a mail MTA on 4.11 that are memory-limited, but otherwise work well. The main boards are maxed out at 64 MB of RAM, and they have 128 MB of swap. The ruby build fails as swap space becomes exhausted. Sure, I could reorganize the hard drives on these boxes to add more swap, but nothing else needs more that a few KB. Moreover, rebuilding the hard drives is to be avoided since these machines are part of a basic infrastructure that has been stable for years.

Problem with HighPoint rr232x driver FreeBSD 6.1 amd64
I have just assemble a new computer to be used as a ftp server. It is an ASUS A8N5X with 1 GB ram and a AMD Athlon 64. I have used one ata hardisc for the system, and put in the Highpoint RocketRaid 2320 PCIe as a controller for a RAID 5 array. I just installed a minimal installation, via ftp on the computer. The install recognize the raid controller and put the rr232x driver into the kernel. But at start up it fail to start channel... I have found that the rr232x is supported by version 6.1. Any ideas, I have tried to put into the /boot/default/loader.conf rr232x_load=YES at the end. FreeBSD defaults by the installation with ACPI enabled, could this be a problem. -- Klaus F.

CDROM read(?) errors during CD boot.
Hello, I get a strange error when booting from my custom boot CD. I'm booting an encrypted system, just a GENERIC kernel and a fstab file are on the CD. The whole time i was building and testing the system i kept getting this CDROM error right near the end of the boot process. It doesn't stop the root file system being mounted, the system continues to boot ok. It just hangs at bit while those errors are printed to the console. If anyone knows what causes it it would be interested to know, i don't see this behavior in the FreeBSD install Cd's, or other live BSD Cd's. The penultimate line of the following dmesg illustrates the problem. Thanks Copyright (c) 1992-2006 The FreeBSD Project.

At this time we also do not want to set up sub domains like: 'sales.company.com' either, although it may come to that. I read through the Virtual documentation and I do not think it is possible.

Is that correct, or is there a way to accomplish it. This can be done. If you only want to serve one domain any imap/pop server will do: dovecot, cyrus-imap or currier all serve fine as MDA's (although I've only tried cyrus). Postfix is easy to setup as MTA. For authentication you have a number of choices: The easy is to add users as unix users, you don't need to give them a shell, just use /sbin/nologin. Then you need to setup sasl with saslauthd. This setup is fine for small scale. For large scale you may want to look at authentication using ldap and choose the more powerful MDA. If you need virtual domains, or serve multiple domains and allow [EMAIL PROTECTED] to be different from [EMAIL PROTECTED] then you definitely need ldap and the powerful MDA. Last time I checked dovecot did not support virtual domains. One last thing: If you don't rely on unix accounts then you need tell the MTA which accounts to receive mail for. Otherwise you can get DDOS'ed: The MTA will receive the entire mail (spam) and attempt local delivery to the MDA, when this fails try to return it. This is quickly a lot of data and resources that is sucked up. I have tried that, not fun! If the MTA knows valid recipients then a lot of junk can be quickly rejected. There are spammers that mail random addresses.

Hello All, I'm looking to teach myself ADA using the Gnu Compiler Collection and GNATS as my compiler under an i386 FreeBSD 6.X system. I'm just curious if any ADA programmers out there can point me to some decent books/online resources for learning the basics and more advanced aspects of ADA. They would be most useful if they referenced ADA95 as that appears to be the standard gnats supports. I would also be interested in resources that describe integrating (I guess linking is more appropriate of a term) C/C++ libraries with ADA. This would mostly be for basic use with X Windows and Motif, GTK, or whatever makes the windows looks nice when I get that far, and OpenGL rendering, and likely ATLAS for crunching numbers. Unless there exists some ADA libraries for any of the above. I went to Borders today and couldn't find anything and a search online would comes up with millions of books that may or may not be useful. I guess I shouldn't be too supprised I couldn't even seem to find a book on Bind at Borders... thanks, -brian ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

ipw(4) and iwi(4): Intel's Pro Wireless firmware licensing problems
Hi, My acquaintance with Unix started with FreeBSD, which I used for quite a while before discovering OpenBSD. I now mostly use OpenBSD, and I was wondering of how many FreeBSD users are aware about the licensing restrictions of Intel Pro Wireless family of wireless adapters? Why are none of the manual pages of FreeBSD say anything about why Intel Wireless devices do not work by default? http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=ipw http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=iwi If you are curious as to why things are the way they are, I suggest that you check the problems that are described in the misc@openbsd.org mailing list, and contact Intel people and say what you think about their user-unfriendly policy in regards to Intel Pro Wireless firmwares, which are REQUIRED to be loaded from the OS before the device functions, i.e. the OS developers must be allowed to freely distribute the firmware in order for the devices to work out-of-the-box. For some recent information about Intel being an Open Source Fraud, see http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=openbsd-miscm=115960734026283w=2.

Compatibility Between Releases Policy
Where is the policy regarding compatibility between releases documented? I recall reading once upon a time that FreeBSD won't break compatibility for the duration of a major point release. If a third party wrote software for 6.0 it would be perfectly compatible with 6.1, 6.2 and on. The reason I ask is that I am considering the wisdom of running portupgraed with each minor point release. Thanks, Jason C.

apache in strange jail getting permissions errors
OK I run a jails (have for the past 18 months in deployment and a year before that in testing) with the following setup, currently on 6.1- RELEASE. This works fine and I have no issues. I am trying to work on a new set up that is giving me issues. Here is the set up that works: I create a master jail that I do not boot. I create an md(4) memory backed disk using a regular disk file (vnode mode) as backings tore. I install the basic directories found in / in this md device (no files, just the directories). I then populate the /etc and /var as well as some special ones (/local and /stubs for example) that are used for jail-specific stuff (/local for all the customer stuff and /stubs for jail specific system stuff like a place for /usr/local to link in to). I then use nullfs mounts to mount from the master jail, the /lib /bin /libexec /usr and /sbin directories in read only fashion. I can then boot the jail and it runs find. I also have a /usr/public which is read only place for ports to install in to. I have appropriate links out of the read only directories into local per jail (per md(4) space) directories. What I just described all works fine and I can upgrade jails really easily as I just have to upgrade the master jail installation, watch for any important etc changes which have to be done individually, and update my one set of ports [and apps built from source without ports] in the /usr/public and all the jails get all the changes. What I want to do is use my Solaris 10 server with 1.7TB ZFS file system exported through NFS as the root for each jail, with the same nullfs mounts as used above in the md(4) version. This actually works in my test jail (but I have not tried to run any applications inside -- just boot it and log in and do basic shell things). I tried last night to move an existing jail that runs apache2 for my dad and a few of his family genealogy sites into such a nfs backed jail. Apache through fits and I saw that you have to have some local space for LockFile, SSLMutex, and a few other mod specific things. So what I did is set up a local directory on the FBSD system with the normal / directories as I do above in the md(4) way of doing things and left a local directory for the apache stuff. I then used nullfs to mount the same dirs as above and then nfs to mount the rest from the ZFS system. It looks like this solaris-i3:/local/jails/leigh/etc 2.0G439M 1.6G21%/local/jails/leigh/etc solaris-i3:/local/jails/leigh/home 2.0G439M 1.6G21%/local/jails/leigh/home solaris-i3:/local/jails/leigh/local2.0G439M 1.6G21%/local/jails/leigh/local solaris-i3:/local/jails/leigh/log 2.0G439M 1.6G21%/local/jails/leigh/log solaris-i3:/local/jails/leigh/root 2.0G439M 1.6G21%/local/jails/leigh/root solaris-i3:/local/jails/leigh/space2.0G439M 1.6G21%/local/jails/leigh/space solaris-i3:/local/jails/leigh/stubs2.0G439M 1.6G21%/local/jails/leigh/stubs solaris-i3:/local/jails/leigh/var 2.0G439M 1.6G21%/local/jails/leigh/var /local/jails/master/bin66G 59G 2.4G96%/local/jails/leigh/bin /local/jails/master/lib66G 59G 2.4G96%/local/jails/leigh/lib /local/jails/master/libexec66G 59G 2.4G96%/local/jails/leigh/libexec /local/jails/master/sbin 66G 59G 2.4G96%/local/jails/leigh/sbin /local/jails/master/usr66G 59G 2.4G96%/local/jails/leigh/usr procfs4.0K4.0K 0B 100%/local/jails/leigh/proc devfs 1.0K1.0K 0B 100%/local/jails/leigh/dev This boots fine, and apache no longer gives a fit (nothing in error_log) as I tell it to put its lock files and stuff in /tmp/ scratch which is a local space not nullfs mounted nor nfs mounted. I can log in to the jail and do shell things. I can change over to my dad's shell account and do things (read files and write new files or change files) as his user and group inside of the nfs mounted / local space. There are NO permission problems (the nfs is mounted with maproot=root [or the equivalent solaris way of exporting it] etc) either root or the user shell account to do things inside the nfs mounted space. However, apache, which runs as the user and group of my dad's login account since he is the sole user of this jail and sole user of apacge, cannot read any of the website files. The exact same apache config file when using the md(4) backed space with all the same files and
