scponly

2009-03-08 Thread Servicecenter Wallprintdesign
Hi,

 

I have big problems with scponly for sftp under FreeBSD 7.1 and find no
solution.

 

Is there a simple Howto?

Thank you

 

Greetings

 

Ludwig

Mozilla simply changed names to Seamonkey and is still alive and kicking.

news/pan seems to work OK, if you want a GUI. But be aware that 
nowadays, you'll probably have to pay a monthly fee for usenet. ISPs 
don't seem to routinely offer it as part of the deal anymore like they

used to.

HTH.

Look in  ports/news  for a whole bunch of reader and server software that
can be used to read and/or distribute the various newsgroups available on
Usenet.

(And several of the more popular web-browsers can also be used as
newsreaders.)

Was going to send as an e-mail to keep the gigantic post off the list, but
my mailer went stupid this morning...

OK...we'll start with the server.  Note that while I'm using the SASL
portion of the port, I'm not using any of the SASL type functionality yet.

Just incase you missed the part from the original post... I ran into a bug
report from last summer that appears to still be open with exactly the same
issue (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=124321).  I get the same
error messages and such, with any luck it's based on misconfiguration of
something.

I hope all of this helps.
Joe.

Hello users,

 

I am strongly considering of installing FreeBSD on my laptop
as my primary O/S but before I do so I would like to ask if someone between
you has already done it and if so, if all hardware parts function as they
should. 

 

Thanks for your time,

I'm not familiar with this special Dell system, but maybe the
tools mbmon and healthd (from ports) can help you to monitor
at least fan speeds and temperatures (as well as voltages).
They're using the kernel's SMB facility.


pciconf -l -v doesn't show an smbus on this system, even with the kernel 
options compiled in.

healthd, I've tried, and it talks to some chips directly, but it hasn't been 
updated in forever.

bsdhwmon looks like it did two releases and went unsupported, reports this 
board as unsupported.

It would appear that older linux kernels find the hardware as follows on this 
link http://hausheer.osola.com/docs/8 (I
realize BSD and linux are different, but perhaps the output there could help 
someone to know if something there is
supported).

Sadly, porting lm_sensors to BSD is hard because of all the kernel dependencies 
and abstraction.  But something more
"universal" under BSD as opposed to several years-outdated ports would be 
REALLY COOL.


Dan,

I'm curious...  and only curious.  Have you discovered if the OpenManage suite works with any drivers on the Linux system? 
Because if OpenManage is a userland utility only, running OpenManage with linux compatibility should work, right?


It would appear that the openmanage stuff requires kernel modules to be 
loaded.  As the way the linuxemu under BSD works, it basically includes a 
whole linux-kernel into the BSD kernel, I doubt any of those modules would 
load.


This is a shame, we've gotten to the point where we can drop in windows 
drivers for things like modems and network cards (which I can easily slap 
a compatible one into my system and ignore the noncompatible one).


But I can't exactly toss another hw monitoring chip in.  :(


My understanding of Linux compat is the ability to run userland apps (not 
drivers) under BSD.  The closed minded attitude of
Dell that will support "X" but not "Y" is offensive to me and that is what 
makes me steer clear of the Dell branded stuff.


The systems came to me free, other than this dying fan thing, they've 
proven ROCK solid (and I have a bank of spare systems).



I hope this might have sparked a interest - but I can't help with the Linux 
compat at all.  I run BSD because it's not Linux.


As do I.  But linux excels in this area.  lm_sensors is better than 
anything available under BSD.  Given the drastic age of the ports I 
mentioned above, what ARE people using to gauge their systems?  Or do 
people just not care about this stuff?

Re: MT4

2009-03-08 Thread Wojciech Puchar


Id like to know if you can run metatrader 4 platform on freebsd.

its normally run on windows but im not a fan of windows.


but if you are fan of metatrader 4 you should be fan on windows ;)

you may try wine, but is it really worth of it, unless you run this 
program occasionally, while doing everything else on FreeBSD?
