Network bridge, but assigned IP address
I am creating a simple network bridge (as described in http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-bridging.html) which consists of 5 network interface cards. Function-wise, it's basically acting as a switch. However, I want to assign an IP address to the machine with the 5 NICs. So far without the bridge everything is working perfectly, and my /etc/rc.conf looks like this: gateway_enable=YES hostname=speedy.i ifconfig_fxp4=DHCP ifconfig_em0=inet 192.168.0.254 netmask 255.255.255.0 And I have a NAT (using pf) to allow the 192.168.0.x hosts to directly reach the outside internet. fxp4 is the external network card. My other network cards that I want to make part of the internal network (acting as a switch) are fxp0 through fxp3. So I'm not sure what to do with my rc.conf. In the handbook it says to add these lines: cloned_interfaces=bridge0 ifconfig_bridge0=addm em0 addm fxp0 addm fxp1 addm fxp2 addm fxp3 up ifconfig_fxp0=up ifconfig_fxp1=up ifconfig_fxp2=up ifconfig_fxp3=up ifconfig_em0=up How should I intermingle these lines with my existing rc.conf, and/or which lines should I remove? I want em0, fxp0, fxp1, fxp2, and fxp3 to be a bridge and be assigned the IP address 192.168.0.254. ___ 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

Interesting. I've used a Dell GX260 for my workstation since 2003, and I've had no hardware problems running two versions of FreeBSD, one version of OpenBSD and one version of Solaris-10. Two other 260s have been file-servers since 2004. The hardware was retired (recently a lot of GX260s) because repairs and downtime are expensive in man-hours. At $WORK there is a group of volunteers who check out and rebuild these retired machines, so they can be donated to schools et cetera. I agree that most of those machines will last several years longer. The GX260s we had only came with 128 MB RAM standard, which is a very tight to run XP with MS office at a reasonable speed. And they came with small harddisks, because most of our storage is on the network. With added RAM and a bigger harddisk it is perfectly usable. But I agree they would probably even perform better with FreeBSD or Linux on it. For myself I tend not to buy the latest and greatest hardware. It takes time for support for new hardware to materialize, and the newest fastest hardware comes with notably reduced value for money.

a (hopefully) simple newbie zfs query regarding available space
Hello list I followed instructions for ZFS on http://wiki.freebsd.org/ZFSQuickStartGuide, substituting ad6 and ad10 (two new SATA3 1TB disks) for da0 da1 and da2 in the instructions. I was surprised to see only 993GB in /tank/. Is this expected, or is it user error? Also, these disks are completely unformatted. I expected to do a newfs or something similar, and for it to take a bit of time! This is on a running 7.2-STABLE amd64 system.

Re: Building home router: 192.168.0.x to access internet
Nerius Landys wrote: First, my choise of internal network IP addresses is 192.168.0.x. My router machine's IP address will be 192.168.0.254 (that's the interface facing the internal network). The IP addresses of the machines behind the router will start at 192.168.0.2 and go up. I'm wondering if this choice of IP addresses is conventional or good. Is this numbering scheme decent? This is the way I had it set up earlier. I've seen a lot of networks using 192.168.1.x and the router would be 192.168.1.1. Whichever works. I don't think there is reason to speculate in best practices as which gets to be number 1, however you may consider dividing the address space into ranges for different uses. You may like to group servers in a particular range and clients in another so that you can create firewall rules accordingly. My network is 172.16/23. The range 172.16.0/24 I use for statically configured nodes, servers, access points etc. The 172.16.1/24 I use for dynamically configured nodes, laptops. The reason is that I'm using dynamic dns on my LAN. The reverse map zones cannot be created for classless networks, you have to define reverse zone for a /16 or /24 network. So to ensure that my static servers reverse map cannot be modified I have split my range such that dynamic and static addresses can be separated. For my static range, I have divided it into two, 172.16.0.0/25 and 172.16.0.128/25, the first for production servers, the later for testing and development. This is just a convention I have established, I thought it might be a good idea, but it is not configured in any way. For my dynamic range, in my dhcpd configuration I have created two ranges, 172.16.1.0/25 and 172.16.1.128/25. The first I assign to known hosts, that is hosts I have registered the MAC address of and know the owner. I haven't statically assigned a particular ip to a particular MAC, I just created a host entry in the dhcpd.conf with the MAC. The later range I use for unknown hosts, so when somebody connects they are easy to identify as foreign. This also permits creating special rules in my firewall so that strangers do not get the same unlimited access as friends. Of course, this is very crude as anyone can just reconfigure their address to get unlimited access, but So now to the problem of being able to connect from a 192.168.0.x machine to an outside IP address. The way I did this before was by adding 'gateway_enable=YES' to /etc/rc.conf and then using the OpenBSD packet filter (pf) to do a NAT thing. I'm wondering if this, in your opinion, is the preferred way to do things in order to set up an internal network which can access the outside internet directly. Yes, that's a great idea. If so, can someone give me a really minimal yet secure packet filter rule set that would do the job? (I'm prepared to read the pf docs, which will take me a few hours.) The router will connect to the outside via DHCP, and from what I remember I had to add a rule to not drop packets that were DHCP-related. See the packet filter documentation, IIRC they have also sample filters for common setups such as yours.

netgraph aggrate L2 tunnels
hello list, I have searched the web for hours and I cant seem to find a recent How to for my project. I have 2 FreeBSD 8 machines 1 at my office and 1 at a colo datacenter. I have 2 DSL connections at my office, Would like a recipe to bond the connections to the datacenter FreeBSD box via L2 netgraph tunnels. the goal is to combine the DSL download speeds for a single tcp connection. after much searching I believe netgraph is the most elegant way to achieve this Would the Lagg driver be a good choice for bonding both sides? Setup info My DSL lines both have seprate static IP's from my telco, the telco does not support MLPPP my inside office network is 192.168.1.x, and the data center has a single static ip I could get more if I need them. I assume I would assign the datacenter side of the tunnel a 192.168.1.x address and use that as my gateway and run pf at the data center with nat. I am sure there are several people out there that understand netgraph and could post config examples.

Fortunately, there are even GUI only projects that keep up with the good manpage tradition. Have you ever tried man opera or man gmencoder? On the other hand, most KDE stuff doesn't have a manpage - of course, I can understand it. From their point of view, the question would be: Who would want to read documentation? Answer: Nobody. So why spend time to create it? This is one reason among many I have no interest in using KDE software. The FHS isn't a Unix standard. It's a Linux distributions standard. It aims to be. To be . . . which one? I'm sure its proponents want it to take over the world, but frankly, I hope it fails miserably. They're actually doing things that break backward compatibility with older standard ways of doing things just for the sake of political expediency, which definitely gets my hackles up. In the specific case of creating /etc/opt, you shouldn't really be damaging anything, but there's a very good reason that stuff is in /usr/local/etc -- so that when using separate filesystems for separate parts of the hierarchy, you don't separate the stuff installed in /usr/local from its configuration data. Especially in an environment with elevated security, there are resons to separate things filesystem wise. File permissions and mount options are a topic there, and symlinking across partitions is a no-go in such settings. That's another excellent point. The FHS doesn't apply to FreeBSD (or any other BSD Unix, or any commercial UNIX system, for that matter), so it's not breaking anything. Just have a look at how Solaris, HP-UX or AIX organize things in terms of directories. You'll be surprised every day where you can find stange things. :-) Hell, I've been surprised at the strange places Red Hat keeps things sometimes, even when Linux distributions were my daily business. Then again, I go out of my way to make sure I use network-attached PostScript laser printers, and they tend to be very well supported by CUPS on BSD Unix and other Unix-like OSes. Postscript capable network printers have the advanage that they don't need any support. PS is the default output format for printing, so there's no need to mess around with filters. Most office class printers even include a spooling mechanism for the printer jobs, so this takes away more work from the OS. You simply use the system's lpr command to shove data into the printer, and it does the rest by itself. I kinda like having the ability to manage my printer spool from the system where the print job was created, though, using the same interface I used to configure the printer and send jobs to it in the first place. Don't forget that `man man` will tell you stuff like how to access a manpage in a particular section of the Unix Manual: man n foo . . . where n is the section number and foo is the manpage in that section you want to read. It's worth mentioning that there are manpages that don't refer to a particular binary, file, interface or function, but instead provide information about maintenance operations and general introduction. An example is % man intro There are other manpages that give hints for compiling the system, such as man build, and others. Indeed.

I'm going to have to conclude I was mistaken. No biggie. We all make mistakes from time to time (even me). For most of my printing needs, I use an HP 4050N. Configuring CUPS to use it was very straightforward -- I just chose the most obvious values from the options presented to me, and everything worked beautifully.

sftp + chrooting users
hi all, I am about chrooting ftp users into theirs home directories. I've following in the end of /etc/ssh/sshd_config Subsystem sftp internal-sftp Match group ftp ChrootDirectory /home X11Forwarding no AllowTcpForwarding no ForceCommand internal-sftp Now, problem I am facing: if I connect like u...@hostname (user is in ftp group) and do ls, it shows all content of /home dir which is not wanted. I want to chroot user to /home/user. But, as in manual, if you are going to do that, chrooted dir must be owned by root and not writable by anyone. This is impossible to do then. In sshd_config(5), there is ChrootDirectory keyword, and there are %u (user name) and %h (home dir) which would work, but they do not. Using of ChrootDirectory /home/%u does not work (because of privileges issue). it is also an option to chmod 700 for home dirs, but is there some other way? ___ 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

I needed to do a full reinstall of freebsd but was unable to disengage the mirror at the time. When installing Freebsd, on to the drives i see i have AD4 AD6 and AR0 on the disk label, i have installed the new free bsd in AD4, and the system would not boot. I have come across this before where i have to remove AR0 to default the drive, i can remember reading a thread on how to use “fix it” and using the live cd. I have google but cannot find it You do understand that 'ar0' is an ATARAID mirror and nothing to do with gmirror at all? gmirror uses device names like /dev/mirror/gm0 typically. Please is there any one here that can refresh my memory and tell me how to remove gmirror from my drives so i can do a fresh install,. You don't need to remove gmirror per-se. If you do a fresh install on top of what you have, it will set up the drive you install on as a stand-alone disk. In fact, you can take one of a gmirror'd pair and just tweak the device names in /etc/fstab and run it as a plain disk pretty easily without reinstalling at all. There will be gmirror metadata blocks on disk, but these wont have any effect unless you mount partitions on the gmirror device. To remove those metadata blocks, just do # gmirror clear /dev/mirror/gm0 (or whatever your gmirror device is called) -- obviously *not* while the gmirror is active. You may need to allow writes to an active underlying partition by # sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=16 The ATARAID mirror you seem to have picked up inadvertently is very similar to a gmirror RAID in the way it works, except that it won't generally have the nice behaviour for replacing blown hot-swap drives without having to reboot the system. In any case, you can just ignore /dev/ar0 and mount partitions from /dev/ad4 instead, equivalently as for the gmirror case. To remove ar0, just do: # atacontrol delete ar0 Either of these are fairly safe to do while the system is up and running. Also, I suspect that your system is not booting for a different reason than you think. You'ld have to tell us the exact error message you see in order to get a definitive answer, but given what you've described two pretty likely problems are: * Early stage boot blocks can't find the kernel image. In this case you'll be dumped at the loader prompt and asked to give the device name and path to read the kernel from -- typically something like (ad,0)/boot/kernel/kernel (you can use the 'ls' command in the loader to see what available devices there are to try booting from). * Can't mount root partition. Generally this means that /etc/fstab contains incorrect data. In this case, you can probably boot to single user, remount the root partition read-write and then edit /etc/fstab These are not impossibly difficult things to deal with, but neither are they entirely trivial, and if you're a beginner and you don't care about what's currently on the disk, you might find it more productive just to reinstall over the top of the previous contents.

serial console on a machine without a serial port, but with a USB port
I need to have access to the console on my server, so that I can do stuff like grab the output of a crash or, if it halts whilst booting up, to take remedial action. I had planned on doing this from a much older machine whose sole function is to provide that capability. This older machine will be remotely accessible, and it sits next to the server machine, on its own real IP address, running ssh and maybe tip or whatever to read the console of the other machine. Sort of like a poor man's ILO. The problem is, the server is a much newer machine and it has no serial port - just USB. Is the only way round this to install a serial card? Would a serial-to-usb converter work? Will usb to usb work? Both machines have USB. on the server machine with a generic kernel (7.2-STABLE), I have this: dmesg | grep -E ^sio[0-9] sio0: configured irq 4 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio0: port may not be enabled sio0: configured irq 4 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio0: port may not be enabled sio0: 16550A-compatible COM port port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 flags 0x10 on acpi0 sio0: type 16550A sio0: [FILTER] sio1: configured irq 3 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio1: port may not be enabled sio0: configured irq 4 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio0: port may not be enabled sio0: configured irq 4 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio0: port may not be enabled sio0: 16550A-compatible COM port port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 flags 0x10 on acpi0 sio0: type 16550A sio0: [FILTER] sio1: configured irq 3 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio1: port may not be enabled and /dev has no sio* entries cheers -- John ___ 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: Gmirror
Yes you are right , I would like to clean off the drives, defalt and clean, then reformat. and reinstall, i did see a post some where on how to do it with the fixit cd, but can not find it now. any idears ?

I have a supermicro server which was running Freebsd 7.1 with 2 SATA drives. I have had G mirror running on the server. I needed to do a full reinstall of freebsd but was unable to disengage the mirror at the time. When installing Freebsd, on to the drives i see i have AD4 AD6 and AR0 on the disk label, i have installed the new free bsd in AD4, and the system would not boot. ar0 is often a cheap onboard RAID device. So cheap as it doesn't even hide ad4 and ad6 which is also hooked up to the motherboard. Installing to ad4 installed it allright. But now the hardware raid will screw things up a bit. Either use gmirror with ad4 and ad6, or use hardware raid on ar0 only. I have come across this before where i have to remove AR0 to default the drive, i can remember reading a thread on how to use “fix it” and using the live cd. I have google but cannot find it Please is there any one here that can refresh my memory and tell me how to remove gmirror from my drives so i can do a fresh install,.

.cshrc History missing
Aloha, I have been trying the new FreeBSD 8 Current, Head and Beta* on an AMD64 box with 2 CPU's. The OS loads and everything works under all versions including i386, but the key stroke history on csh does not survive over a reboot or shutdown. I have never seen this happen before and I have been using FreeBSD for a very long time.. since FreeBSD 2.* . Anyone have any ideas what I should check for either with hardware or in .cshrc or elsewhere?

Re: .cshrc History missing
Allthough I'm not familiar with the particular problem you described, I observed that the history sometimes (!) does not survive a reboot. It may have to do with a situation where more than one shell is running. Idea: The last shell closed (even forced) saves its history, so the history of the other shells gets lost. I've set those globally in /etc/csh.cshrc: set history = 100 set savehist = 100 Sometimes, history survives, sometimes it doesn't.

I thought it was funny that this was happening. I have earlier CURRENT 8 running on a couple of machines and they never acted this way. This is root that is doing this on my test box. set history = 100 set savehistory = 100 are in the .cshrc file.

Re: vsftpd with ssl - compile option
Stefan Miklosovic wrote: hi, I would like to use vsftpd with ssl support. If I install it from ports, there is an option to compile it against ssl librarie(s) (VSFTPD_SSL) If I download it by pkg_fetch and extract the package and use ldd on vsftpd in libexec directory, there is no ssl library, in complied way, there are some. libssl.so.5 = /usr/lib/libssl.so.5 (0x280b) libcrypto.so.5 = /lib/libcrypto.so.5 (0x280f1000) I would like to use that program on other computer, but there is not port tree and installing of port tree is really not an option. Build it as you want it on another machine using ports, then run on that build machine: pkg_create -b -R name from pkg_info This will turn the selected install (and all its dependencies, with the -R flag) into tbz packages in the current directory suitable for pkg_add on the target machine. If there are any missing dependencies on the target machine, pkg_add will try to load them from the same directory from which you are adding the main package. If they do not exist, it will most likely fail, so you will likely want to copy over everything that pkg_create spits out, unless you know it's already installed and up to date on your target. -- Fuzzy love, -CyberLeo Technical Administrator CyberLeo.Net Webhosting http://www.CyberLeo.Net cyber...@cyberleo.net Furry Peace! - http://.fur.com/peace/ ___ 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
