Hi, I have big problems with scponly for sftp under FreeBSD 7.1 and find no solution. Is there a simple Howto?

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.

LAPTOP COMPATIBILITY w FreeBSD : Toshiba Satellite A300-13I
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.

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? -Dan -- "You recreate the stars in the sky with cows?" -Furrball, March 7 2005, on Katamari Damacy Dan Mahoney Techie, Sysadmin, WebGeek Gushi on efnet/undernet IRC ICQ: 13735144 AIM: LarpGM Site: http://www.gushi.org --- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Re: MT4
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? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
