Greetings, All - I want to set up an account for my boy that he can use freely with the exception that I can turn off his Internet access at will from my root-privilege account. It would be nice if I could also set up a limited-access constraint that would allow him some domains with a white-list file. I'm using KDE4 on 7-STABLE. I need the rest of the accounts to remain connected, so a simple ifconfig is not appropriate. He's not experienced enough (yet :) to be able to reconfigure things for himself, so if there's a KDE config that I can use that'll be fine. Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

File Descriptor Leak in Freebsd 4.9 - any known issue?
Hi, Has there been any known issue regarding socket-descriptor leak in Freebsd4.9? In my application I am using openldap client library to authenticate users with ldap-server. Whenever an authentication request comes, the application opens a socket to backend ldap server and then hands over the socket-descriptor to ldap-client-library. ldap-client-library takes care of communicating with ldap-server and later calls 'unbind' that also closes the connection. Now, the problem I am facing is this - I observed that the number of sockets opened by the application to backend ldap-server keeps growing constantly. These open sockets keep lingering even when there is no activity happening for a long time (e.g. no authentication request coming for hours). This is many times leading to the error kern.maxfiles limit reached by uid ... and then system stops functioning. I was wondering if there can be a problem with open-ldap-library and it is not calling 'unbind' in some cases; but then I observed that the issue does not occur when I run same application on Freebsd6.3. Even if there was a problem with ldap-library then also how can a socket remain open for hours without any activity happening on it - shouldn't it be timing out at some time? Kindly let me know if you have an idea on what might be happening or what could be the fix. Any help is much appreciated.

If these are real ports, you might want to report the brokenness. You'll probably find that you can FORCE_PKG_REGISTER=1 and leave it at that (though I typically treat it as a last resort and instead opt for fixing the port). -- Chris Cowart Network Technical Lead Network Infrastructure Services, RSSP-IT UC Berkeley I wrote this but gmail default reply is not reply-all go to the openssl port and run make replace and it should replace base but I actually don't really suggest it. since I don't really see a need to even from wireshark which I have installed without overwriting openssl_base ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Matt, Chris, First off, thanks for taking the time to reply :-) I am afraid however, that you have completely lost me. This is not the first time I have installed a port, and the reccommendation to use 'FORCE_PACKAGE_REGISTER has been seen. Unfortunately, I have no idea what port you guys are suggesting is really broken, is it the OpenSSL_Overwrite_Base or the one I am trying to install? If it is the OpenSSL one, can you explain in simple terms how I should deal with it? If you use FORCE_PACKAGE_REGISTER=yes and it still fails take a look to see what is actually installed. pkg_info -ia | grep Open_SSL The suggest installing portupgrade. Once that's complete you can portupgrade the port related to Open_SSL to see if that steps around the issue. m! ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Copying a FreeBSD install to a smaller disk
On Thu, Sep 11, 2008 at 05:19:55PM -0700, Chris Weiss wrote: How would I go about copying an existing FreeBSD installation to a smaller disk? I've got a 3rd FreeBSD install I can boot from and store temporary files on, all the disks are in the same hardware, so there's no reconfiguration other than the boot device name and interface (IE -SATA ad4 will become IDE ad0). The disk is partitioned using the default sysinstall values and the contents of the larger disk will fit on the smaller disk, although I need to increase the size of the / and /var slices on the target to hold everything (/usr is fairly empty, so it'll easily fit on the smaller disk). For now, we'll say ad0 = new smaller disk, ad4 = boot BSD disk, and ad6 = the BSD install I want to clone. The path I've been going down is to manually partition and slice ad0 create ad4/mnt/source and ad4/mnt/target and mount /var, /tmp, etc from ad0 and ad6 and manually copy the files. But I'm stuck on how to handle /, since it'll have dev and proc and such. Any thoughts on how to do this, or on a completely different approach? I'm not aware of any 3rd party tools that'll deal with shrinking FreeBSD partitions. Thanks in advance for any help you folks can give! Seems like you are generally on the right track, though some of your mounting seems backwards to me. First, as you have indicated, manually slice, partition and newfs the new disk (ad0) to match what you want to have on it. If you are making an identical, just smaller, disk to ad4, then do a df and see what slices and partitions are being used on ad4. Probably it is one slice, divided into several partitions. While you are at it, look at each of the filesystem sizes and make sure you will have room on the new, smaller disk. You want at least the current used size + 10%. Really you want more to actually operate. Presuming you want a single bootable slice (ad0s1) which is then divided in to partitions for: a: / b: swap d: /tmp e: /usr f: /var g: /home Do: fdisk -BI ad0 Creates a single bootable slice with default MBR (good enough). bsdlabel -w -B da0s1 Writes an initial label and boot block on the slice bsdlabel -e da0s1 Puts you in edit (vi by default) with the current condition of the partition label showing. If it is new, it will only show a 'c' partition covering the whole available size of the slice. Edit this page by duplicating that 'c' line for each real partition you want to have and changing fstype from 'unused' to '4.2BSD' on the a, d, e, f, g partitions and 'swap' on the b partition. In the end you will have something that looks about like: # /dev/ad0s3: 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 5242880 4.2BSD2048 16384 32776 b: 2572288* swap c: 783168750 unused 0 0# raw part, don't edit d: 1048576* 4.2BSD2048 16384 8 e: 4194304* 4.2BSD2048 16384 28552 f: 6291456* 4.2BSD2048 16384 28552 g:** 4.2BSD2048 16384 28552 You need only specify the sizes. You can put '*' for the offset and the bsdlabel utility figures it out correctly. Also, you can put '*' for both size and offset on the last partition and it will use all the remaining available space. Don't do anything with the actual 'c' partition. Remember that sizes here are in 512 Byte blocks/sectors. The sizes I have here are for a disk I happen to have handy at the moment to look at. a: 256 MBMount as; / b: 1,256 MB swap d: 512 MB /tmp e: 2,048 MB /usr f: 3,072 MB /var g: 31,096 MB /home Then do a regular newfs on each real file system a, d, e, f, g newfs /dev/ad0s1a newfs /dev/ad0s1d etc for e, f, g Once you have the new disk created, I would do the rest all in single user mode. Boot to single useri, then fsck -p mount -u / mount -a swapon -a Create temporary mount points for the new filesystems (ignore /tmp unless you actually have something there to maintain - unlikely) mkdir /newroot mkdir /newusr mkdir /newvar mkdir /newhome Use dump/restore to copy the file systems cd /newroot dump -0af - / | restore -rf - cd /newusr dump -0af - /usr | restore -rf - cd /newvar dump -0af - /var | restore -rf - cd /newhome dump -0af - /home | restore -rf - These can take a while, especially the /home dump/restore if it is large. Once you are finished with this you need to fix up the /etc/fstab file on /newroot. After this, when you reboot, as long as ad0 is in front of ad4 in the BIOS boot sequence, the system will attempt to boot from ad0. Since there are more than one bootable disks now on the machine, it should give you a menu of bootable slices from which you can select. Have fun, jerry -- -Chris

Audio Production
Does anyone here use freebsd for serious audio/video production work? or know if there is some kind of community? i have seen ubuntu studio for a general idea outside windows/osx, but prefer fbsd over linux. and found most programs in ports, but i would like to find out more about kernel optimization in that respect and what goes into that type of dedicated setup. i am running 7-stable with a custom kernel, where i only added vesa, and removed some scsi and network drivers i don't have from the generic kernel, but i figure there must be more settings to tweak than what i saw there in the generic file. would there be more settings somewhere else or would you add them to the kernconf file? my setup works fairly decent for desktop use, but seems kinda sluggish with even basic multimedia. p.s. on a different note while i'm here, how do you go from 7.1 prerelease to 7.1 release when it is out? when/how do you tell when you stop using stable-supfile and start using standard-supfile? thanks in advance ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

x3550 ServeRAID-8k and FBSD 7, group limit
We are currently considering to purchase IBM x3550 with ServeRAID-8k, in order to run FreeBSD 7 with RAID5, but it is very unclear from what I've saw on the Internet, whether the driver support on FreeBSD is stable enough for production use, and I've left with many questions unanswered, with which I hope you'll be kind to help me =) 1. Is FreeBSD supports the device right after install or I need to recompile the kernel? 2. Is tools for manage the RAID available? If no, how you rebuild the array on drive failure (and how to detect it)? I've just remember i had another unanswered question, not related to x3550: 3. When I've used FreeBSD 6.2, it had a limitation, that a user can be member only of N groups (don't remember exactly, i think N = 15), however i couldn't find any official documentation of that issue, nor if it still exists in FBSD 7, so is it? =) Thank you very much for your time, Yury Michurin. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Wireshark
I have never tried this with OpenSSL so I can't be certain (I just use base openssl) but as long as the libraries are already open, deleting them should be ok since the open file handle will remain valid. Starting a new SSH connection may not work between the deinstall and install step, and apache may get upset if it happens to fork a new process in that time, but overall it should be ok, You'll want to restart sshd and apache after the install is done so they puck up the new version. If you are worried about getting disconnected between the 2 steps run them as a single command make deinstall; make install inside screen (ports/sysutils/screen) or something so it will run to completion even if you get disconnected.

Disappearing Hard Drive?
I have a puzzling problem. I'm sure I just missed something simple, but I can't figure out what. I added a drive to my system as Master on controller 2. After turning back on, I found I couldn't see that 80 GB drive on my system. I turned it off, checked all settings, then turned it back on and verified that the BIOS can see it - it's properly listed as an 80 GB Samsung as Master on 2. It sounds normal, looks normal and I can feel it spin up. But I still don't see it on my system to mount it. I had just done this process with a 40 GB drive and it worked just fine, so I knew that I knew how to do it. That one showed up in dmesg and was easily mounted. For what it's worth, my Linux desktop, when I hook this drive up to an oddball USB-ATA adapter, acts exactly like it does with every OTHER drive I've pulled out of a FreeBSD box - it sees it but hasn't a clue how to mount it properly. So I don't think the drive is a dud or anything. It was in use until a few weeks ago. I will be verifying the drive is seen OK on another system shortly, but I'd thought I'd throw this out there before then to see if anyone has any ideas,. If someone would be so kind as to point me to some relevant help, I would greatly appreciate it.

Are You Looking For A More Effective Way To Advertise?
Are You Looking For A More Effective Way To Advertise? For those of us trying to promote our business, service, product or whatever else, it#039;s a constant job to advertise. Some of us have found some really superb ways of advertising and some are still dealing with some trial and error issues. But when people ask me about a few good ways to advertise one of my suggestions is groups like MSN, Yahoo or Google. These groups allow you to advertise whatever it is your selling, easily, quickly and without stepping over that ever visible spam line. The last thing you want to do when advertising your business or product is to annoy people by sending them spam-worthy emails! So what can you do on these groups? How does it work exactly? Well most likely you will need to find the category and subcategory of your business or product that you are trying to advertise. By taking the time to do this very first process your lessening your chances of posting spam. If you are selling car seat covers, the last place that needs to be is in the cooking section! Besides dodging spam related acts, you are also targeting your advertising by finding the correct category to post it in. That#039;s what you want! If you can#039;t find the correct category for what your advertising then you#039;re probably not looking in the right place considering these groups have literally thousands of categories and millions of subcategories! Although posting to groups is a good thing to do, it also can take up a lot of your precious time. So, then what? Well there are actual people that will do this for you!. They allow you to automatically post your ads on these groups, which saves you incredible amounts of time. You can pick when you want it sent out, which groups you want it sent to, pick the category and customize your ad to suit your needs. Sounds pretty easy right? Well it is! These people offer this service to you for a small one time fee. And, from the looks of it, this fee is pretty low considering what they give you! So, it#039;s easy, quick, and cheap? Yes! Here#039;s a couple packages I found on one site in particular: Ad Package number one: once a day ad/message submission (ads posted once daily for life). One-time payment of $25 nbsp; http://automatedblogs4cash.ws/ads4life Ad Package number two: twice a day ad submission (ads/messages will be sent two times a day for life) one-time payment of $30 Ad Package number three: three times a day ad/message submission (ads/messages will be sent three times a day for life) one-time payment of $45 Ad Package number four: four times a day ad/message submission (ads/messages will be sent four times a day for life) one-time payment of $50 nbsp; http://automatedblogs4cash.ws/ads4life Ad Package number five: six times a day ad/message submission (ads/messages will be sent six times a day for life) one-time payment of $75 Even if you want to just try the service out they allow you to buy a once a day ad just to see what sorts of results you can get with it. This seems pretty nifty to me. In fact, I am going to go and try this service in particular out, right after I#039;m done writing this! Again, your ad or message will be sent to over 300+ combined Google, Yahoo, and MSN groups for life. I#039;m sorry, but this is a fantastic buy and everyone should at least try it out! http://automatedblogs4cash.ws/ads4life --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups STAYIN HOME AND LOVING IT group.
