 I understand that this is not a backport of the driver  but a hack but
 the ISO size surprises me.
 
 The steps I had followed (listed below) resulted in an ISO image of
 around 1 GB while the original ISO image is around 600 MB. The new
 image work boots fine but I am not sure why it is huge

The port sysutils/isomaster can edit ISO images, and add and delete
files. Give it a try.

Re: port-MESS with apache22

Upgraded to 8.0 without problem.
Reinstalling ports was tedious... but NP for most part.
Sommehow the installation of apache22 stumbled over some configuration

mod_php5 isn't built by default when you install php5.  This catches
out a very large number of people, and it is particularly astonishing
as integrating php into apache is probably the number one reason for
installing php.

Sounds like you may need to do this:

   # cd /usr/ports/lang/php5
   # make config
   [ Make sure the option for 'Build Apache Module' is checked ]
   # portupgrade -f lang/php5

 -or-

   # portmaster --force-config -f lang/php5



It might also be necessary to rebuild all of the php5 modules -- plus
any pecl- modules.  At the cost of reinstalling pear- modules and PHP
apps (which should be fairly cheap, as the port installation process for
that sort of port consists almost entirely of copying files into place)
you can just do this:

   # portupgrade -fr lang/php5

   -or-

   # portmaster -fr lang/php5


Also double check httpd.conf once PHP5 is installed with mod_php5 -- 
the port will automatically add a line to ${PREFIX}/etc/apache22/httpd.conf

to cause apache to load the module, which should look like this:

LoadModule php5_modulelibexec/apache22/libphp5.so

As I recall, PHP5 creates that line as shown, which should work straight
away, but some modules add a commented out LoadModule line, so it would
be a good idea to eliminate that as a potential problem.

Cheers,

It's part of a different port. You need to install databases/mysql54-scripts

HOW can I setup root password ?


If you're currently logged into ax.lall.com, then you definitely want
to use '-h localhost' (or nothing, as that's the default).  If there is
already a root password, obviously you need to give it.  Conversely, if
you've got a password set in /root/.my.cnf or some other my.cnf file but
this is a brand new mysql install with no root password yet, then you need
to temporarily move that file aside: mysql doesn't let you in if you try
and supply a password for a no-password account.

I advise using mysql_secure_installation -- but you're still going to have
to move aside any pre-existing .my.cnf files.  Also, as a general security
thing, preferably don't allow root logins to mysql from anywhere other than
localhost.

Matthew

chroot a few apps

2010-01-09 Thread Vadkan Jozsef

What kind of chroot should I use, if I want to make a more secured
desktop, running e.g.:

pdf reader
webbrowser
audio player
video player
openoffice
picture viewer
mua
ooo
virtualbox

e.g.: if theres a javascript vulnerability in google chrome [I haven't
heard a NoScript extension for it :( ] a chroot would be good for
stopping it from doing something bad with the whole system.

or e.g.: I have to open a .doc file, that I don't trust, or a PDF can
contain malicious code :(

Any tips/docs/howtos?

Gary Kline wrote:



This caught my interest this morning so I set up a commented-out trial in

tia, gents,


So you're using 6to4 tunnelling as described in stf(4)?  That's a quite
different setup to what has been discussed previously in this thread. 
I think 6to4 is, if not deprecated, certainly not the normal way of getting

IPv6 connectivity nowadays.  Generally you'ld get an address space allocation
from your ISP, or failing that, a tunnel broker like Hurricane Electric[*].

Anyhow, as stf(4) says, you need to encode your IPv4 address as hex in the
6to4 address -- that looks correct:

% perl -e 'map { printf %x\n, $_ } split( /\./, shift );' 209.180.213.210
d1
b4
d5
d2

However 2002:d1b4:d5d2:: is *your* network address, and having it as the 
default router sounds wrong to me.  You need to assign addresses from that
range to your hosts -- which you can do automatically by enabling rtadvd(8)
on your gateway machine and rtsold(8) on your clients.  Also, to use 6to4
you need to create a 'stf0' interface and make that the ipv6_default_interface.

This is all independent of setting up IPv6 related items in your DNS.  Get
the IPv6 connectivity working first -- use ping6 and traceroute6 with IPv6
numbers to confirm connectivity, and then worry about DNS settings.

Cheers,

Matthew

[*] Which is pretty crazy given that the prediction is IPv4 space is
going to run out around 2012[+].  All of the major ISPs and NSPs really
should be providing IPv6 natively by now.

[+] Potential for another IT-feeding-frenzy-panic scenario like the run

Inserting PC card NIC, system stops

Hello.
I have a problem with a PC card Ethernet interface.

When I insert the PC card to my laptop,
the system hungs and makes no response.
When I eject the card,
the system starts again and works fine.
(working
 - insert the card
 stopping

Of course, I cannot use this card for network interface.
(ifconfig command does not show this interface.)
Are there some workarounds to work this card correctly?

 Because not only are you going to have to upgrade the OS twice,
 you're going to have to re-install all the ports.  (OK, you may not
 _have_ to reinstall - compatibility libraries exist - but it is
 clearly the path of greatest reliability.)
 It's just as easy to start with a clean installation, which has
 other benefits as well.

Absolutely true. I pushed for hot-swappable drives back
when we ordered these systems which are Dell 2950's, but I
didn't get anywhere at all with that campaign. The 2950's have
been no trouble to speak of but it makes times like this so much

Hi Scott,

nearly all in /rescue are hardlinks to one big executable, and there are 
also hardlinks in /bin and /sbin, hence your size difference.  rsync(1):

  Note that -a does not preserve hardlinks, because finding multi-
  ply-linked  files is expensive.  You must separately specify -H.
  Note also that for compatibility, -a currently does not  include
  --flags  (see there) to include preserving change file flags (if
  supported by the OS).

  # scp sc...@remote:/boot/kernel/amdsmb.ko boot/kernel/.
  
  // wrap up in a ISO
  # cd ..
  #mkisofs -R -b boot/cdboot -no-emul-boot -o custom.iso custom
  
  The ISO file is created successfully but is huge. I mounted it in
  VirtualBox and boots just fine. I was able to install the OS (although
  I have not checked the functionality of amdsmb changes yet)
  
  I looked up information on creating custom ISO images but they had all
  involved rebuilding the kernel while I am not sure if I need to do the
  same Any leads is appreciated.

Yes, running make release might be just a tad over the top for this :)

 If you're currently logged into ax.lall.com, then you definitely want
 to use '-h localhost' (or nothing, as that's the default).  If there is
 already a root password, obviously you need to give it.  Conversely, if
 you've got a password set in /root/.my.cnf or some other my.cnf file but
 this is a brand new mysql install with no root password yet, then you need
 to temporarily move that file aside: mysql doesn't let you in if you try
 and supply a password for a no-password account.
 
 I advise using mysql_secure_installation -- but you're still going to have
 to move aside any pre-existing .my.cnf files.  Also, as a general security
 thing, preferably don't allow root logins to mysql from anywhere other
 than
 localhost.
 
 

There was a v 6.2 install attempt but had to be rolled back. All files were
removed 'hopefully'. Version 5.5 was downloaded to a src directory but not
installed. A find -f /* -name 'my.cnf' -print search found nothing except
copies in the src directory of v 5.5 and those in the ports.

When the server is started with /usr/local/bin/mysqld_safe 
I get the same responses as above re: setting the root password attempt


 /usr/local/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h localhost password 
 /usr/local/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
 error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'
 

When I attempt with a
/usr/local/bin/mysql_secure_installation start (after killing the mysql
safe start)
I get the following ==


 In order to log into MySQL to secure it, we'll need the current
 password for the root user.  If you've just installed MySQL, and
 you haven't set the root password yet, the password will be blank,
 so you should just press enter here.
 
 Enter current password for root (enter for none):
 ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
 '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
 Enter current password for root (enter for none):
 ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
 '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
 Enter current password for root (enter for none):
 

So I obviously have the wrong approach, please advise.

Thanks!

Re: port-MESS with apache22

2010-01-09 Thread PJ
Thanks for the response, Matthew.

Now that I've had somewhat of a night's sleep thinking about the
problem. This might help clear things for future generations. :-)

Here's some background: Before upgrading from 7.2 RELEASE to 8.0 RELEASE
, I had run portsnap on 7.2 but did not update the ports.
Is it possible that this may be the source of the problem?
PWould it make sense to rebuild the ports database and portsnap now that
I'm running 8.0 and then reinstalling either just the problem apps or
maybe do another complete reinstall (# portupgrade -af - -batch). It's a
PITA but if that fixes things...
I seem to recall that there are probably differences in the ports for
different os versions?
I do recall that when I was updating apache, I did make config and
erroneously checked proxy_lconnect SSL support (do not use proxy). This
generated a stop in the install and somewhere at this point I noticed
that there had been an apache2 directory created. I tried to find the
problem but figured that once installed, a deinstall and reinstall would
fix thinkg. I think I mucked up something as I had to delete all the
files and work directories in the hope they would be regenrated when
installing. Well, no such luck. However, I have backups of all
installations on another disk and was able to copy the files directory
to the port. Anyway, the installation went all the way and on reboot
apache was working. But when I tried to access my virtual sites, things
were not quite right.
Thanks again.

 mod_php5 isn't built by default when you install php5.  This catches

 as integrating php into apache is probably the number one reason for
 installing php.

 Sounds like you may need to do this:

[ Make sure the option for 'Build Apache Module' is checked ]
# portupgrade -f lang/php5

  -or-

# portmaster --force-config -f lang/php5



 It might also be necessary to rebuild all of the php5 modules -- plus
 any pecl- modules.  At the cost of reinstalling pear- modules and PHP
 apps (which should be fairly cheap, as the port installation process for
 that sort of port consists almost entirely of copying files into place)
 you can just do this:

# portupgrade -fr lang/php5

-or-

# portmaster -fr lang/php5


 Also double check httpd.conf once PHP5 is installed with mod_php5 --
 the port will automatically add a line to
 ${PREFIX}/etc/apache22/httpd.conf
 to cause apache to load the module, which should look like this:

 LoadModule php5_modulelibexec/apache22/libphp5.so

 As I recall, PHP5 creates that line as shown, which should work straight
 away, but some modules add a commented out LoadModule line, so it would
 be a good idea to eliminate that as a potential problem.

 Matthew

Basically, I have done all that except using the -f parameter.
In effect, php5 is trying to add the mod_php5 module, only it is getting
the directory name as apache2 and not apache22 and is thus creating
apache2 directories... from what I could find in the Makefile or
somewhere I don't recall, this directory comes from some PATH type
thingy... $LD_LIBRARY_PATH but I don't know or could not find the source
of this.

 I'm having problems with the /etc/rc.conf setup of a ipv6 tunnel on my

Re: Replacing disks in a ZFS pool

2010/1/8 Steve Bertrand st...@ibctech.ca

 Steve Bertrand wrote:
  krad wrote:
 
  the idea of using this type of label instead of the disk names
  themselves.
 
  I personally haven't run into any bad problems using the full device,
 but
  I suppose it could be a problem. (Side note - geom should learn how to
  parse zfs labels so it could create something like /dev/zfs/uuid for
  device nodes instead of using other trickery)
 
  How should I proceed? I'm assuming something like this:
 
  - add the new 1.5TB drives into the existing, running system
  - GPT label them
  - use 'zpool replace' to replace one drive at a time, allowing the
 pool
  to rebuild after each drive is replaced
  - once all four drives are complete, shut down the system, remove the
  four original drives, and connect the four new ones where the old ones
  were
 
  If you have enough ports to bring all eight drives online at once, I
 would
  recommend using 'zfs send' rather than the replacement. That way you'll
  get something like a burn-in on your new drives, and I believe it
 will
  probably be faster than the replacement process. Even on an active
 system,
  you can use a couple of incremental snapshots and reduce the downtime
 to a
  bare minimum.
 
 
  Surely it would be better to attach the drives either individually or as
 a
  matching vdev (assuming they can all run at once), then break the mirror
  after its resilvered.  Far less work and far less liekly to miss
 something.
 
  What I have done with my system is label the drives up with a coloured
  sticker then create a glabel for the device. I then add the glabels to
 the
  zpool. Makes it very easy to identify the drives.
 
  Ok. Unfortunately, the box only has four SATA ports.
 
  Can I:
 
  - shut down
  - replace a single existing drive with a new one (breaking the RAID)
  - boot back up
  - gpt label the new disk
  - import the new gpt labelled disk
  - rebuild array
  - rinse, repeat three more times
 

 This seems to work ok:

 # zpool offline storage ad6
 # halt  replace disk, and start machine
 # zpool online storage ad6
 # zpool replace storage ad6

 I don't know enough about gpt/gpart to be able to work that into the
 mix. I would much prefer to have gpt labels as opposed to disk names,
 but alas.

 fwiw, can I label an entire disk (such as ad6) with gpt, without having
 to install boot blocks etc?

 I was hoping it would be as easy as:

 # gpt create -f ad6
 # gpt label -l disk1 ad6

 ...but it doesn't work.

 Neither does:

 # gpart create -s gpt ad6
 # gpart add -t freebsd-zfs -l disk1 ad6

 I'd like to do this so I don't have to manually specify a size to use. I
 just want the system to Do The Right Thing, which in this case, would be
 to just use the entire disk.

 Steve




  If so, is there anything I should do prior to the initial drive
  replacement, or will simulating the drive failure be ok?

 Hi list

 I'd like to know your opinion on formating a portable
 device with this file system.

 I have an external 120G HD, and I'd like to use an
 ENCRYPTED ZFS partition to save files and copy them
 between different machines (my laptop, at work, etc).

 ¿Is easy to mount ZFS as it is with ntfs or ext3?

its fairly easy, just export/import the pool. One thing to make sure is that
all you machines are capable of handling zfs. Also make sure they are all on
the same zfs baseline. If you update one box and it goes upto zfs v22 say,
and you do a zpool upgrade. Your other machines wont be able to access the
zpool until they are upgraded

So, I delted everything from /usr/ports/ except /distfiles, did csup -L
2 ports-supfile and reinstalled php5 and apache22... now it works...
but...
there is some confusion here as my httpd.conf file is set for/usr/local

Now, apache seems to have created a data folder under that root - only
the document root has always been set to /usr/local/www/apache22/data 
now who went and changed at that again... was it really necessary?
I don't understand this kind of mucking about...
in 7.2 and previous releases this never changed... now, all of a sudden,
it's different!
Now, when accessing apache either remotely or from localhost, the first
file is sought at /usr/local/data even when the virtual host is set to
/usr/local/www/apache22/data

Is there an explanation for this? My settings are identical on all my
installations of 7.2 and the new 8.0, yet the results are different.

working, but until today I had not had a chance to confirm this. The
drives were already set to AHCI in the bios, and showed up in the AHCI
bios util and also at post.

I did some googling and it seems this is an issue with AMD SB700
chipsets as someone else had come across the same problem.

I gave a snapshot of 9.0 a shot just to see if the problem existed in
9.0 as well as 8.0, it does. Last resort was to do a BIOS update of the
mainboard, as it was on the original release F1 and F4 was available. On
reboot I noticed the AHCI bios revision had changed 00078 from 00070, I
still get a couple of timeout messages on boot, but the drives now
detect and work just fine.

Re: pkgtools and xz compressor

2010-01-09 Thread b. f.
I notice FreeBSD 7.2's pkg_add, pkg_create, etc don't have support for
the xz compressor, evidently due to lack of support for the xz format
in bsdtar.  Does bsdtar support xz in FreeBSD 8.0?  Failing that, is
xz support for the pkgtools something being looked at in future?


Yes, we know, we know.  :)  No, FreeBSD 8.0 does not have support for
lzma compression in it's base system libarchive, although there are
several ports that support it, and it could be handled by using one of
them, as is done with the current USE_ZIP knob.  The latest version of
libarchive (imported recently into 9-CURRENT, from
http://code.google.com/p/libarchive/ ) has support for lzma
compression in several formats, as well as other improvements.
Unfortunately, the imported version of libarchive still has lzma
disabled by default, and no supporting lzma libraries were imported.
You would have to ask kientzle@ why this is so.

xz's compression ratios tend to be much better than bzip2's, eg.

Yes, and with faster decompression, albeit at the cost of more memory
and cpu usage.  But, unfortunately, portmgr@ does not seem interested
in incorporating these improvements.  If I recall correctly, there are
one or more open PRs suggesting means of adding support, but they have
been largely ignored.  Some time ago, the maintainer of one
widely-used port switched it over to an lzma-compressed tarball, and
received a lot of criticism for doing so, including some from key
committers who evidently didn't even know what lzma was.  Ultimately,
he had to revert to a bzip2-compressed tarball.  So it may be a while
before this is widely used in ports.

Dear Sirs,
We use a software package for scientific imagery processing from USGS,
ISIS3 (http://isis.astrogeology.usgs.gov/). The most recent version is
3.1.21 and since this version, the software intensively uses
libprotobuf.so.

While we can use ISIS 3.1.20 very well under FreeBSD 8.0/amd64, it is
impossible to use the software with version no. 3.1.21, which seems to
have some issues wih libprotobuf.so. Every client out of this ISIS3
package crashes with a segmentation fault and as far as I can judge the
situation, there is a problem with libprotobuf.so, against which all
clients out of ISIS 3.1.21 are linked.


Perhaps the ISIS package was developed using a different (older?) version
of Google's protocol buffers. Compiling protobuf from source is quite
easy on FreeBSD. You can find the source here:
http://code.google.com/p/protobuf/downloads/list
I would start by trying version 2.1.0 and 2.2.0a.


I searched for help on the ISIS3-support forum and realised that some
Apple OS X guys have had similar problems, but those threads where
closed immediately or got relative senseless response.

In our case, we compile every necessary library and prerequisite
software package (mostly Qt4 libs) from ports. This works great with
some tweaks for FreeBSD in make/config.freebsd (which I derived from
some linux and/or OS X config files).

Now I'm floating like a dead man i the water. Below I provide q gdb
output of the qview-client (the same is with all other clients, like
photrim etc. for those familiar with the software package).


A backtrace ('bt' at the gdb prompt) might contain more useful
information.


Additionaly, I provide a truss-output, that stops at mmap issues.

Well, if someone could provide me with some advance debugging hints I
would appreaciate them. I'm pretty sure he problem is located within the
libprotobuf library or the way it is treated, but this is a guess of a
non-developer.

Thanks very much in advance.
Please reply also to this email address, since I'm not subscriber of the

Hello Pieter,

ISIS3 utilises the very same revision of libprotobuf as FreeBSD has in
the ports repositorium (libprotobuf.so.4.0.0, aka protobuf-2.2.0). The
backtrace follows, it is a little bit lengthy ...


Ok, I can reproduce this locally. The cause is incorrect compiler flags.
Basically one must use `pkg-config --cflags protobuf` to get the correct
CFLAGS and `pkg-config --libs protobuf` for the correct libraries.

Most likely one or both of the following were missing during the
compilation/linking of ISIS: -D_THREAD_SAFE -pthread

Regards,

Pieter


You're right. Thank you very much. After applying the output of 
pkg-config --libs protobuf to the proper make file, everythng went as 
expected!


Regards and thanks,

Oliver

 If UDMA mode reported instead of SATA speed is the only issue, then it
 is not an issue, but only a cosmetic change. It doesn't mean that your
 drives will work slower.

 Thanks for report, I'll plug ICH7 board a bit later to check this.

OK. I have attached my ICH7 board and found where is the problem. This
chipset doesn't provide access to SATA control registers. As result,

wish, you can restore previous behavior by applying attached patch. Here
is what I have with it:

RE: Clean PHP 5.2.12 Build Core Dumping

2010-01-09 Thread Don O'Neil
Ok... well, your idea is a good one, but it seems that the port is broken.

I did a port update, which brought in the latest php build info from
December, but when I run 'make' (without even editing the Makefile to add my
own other modules I need) I get this:

X11BASE is now deprecated.  Unset X11BASE in make.conf and try again.
*** Error code 1

Not even sure where it's getting that error message from, since I can't find
any reference to X11BASE in any of the files in the package, or in my env.

Any ideas?

 I'd suggest using the FreeBSD ports system for installation from
 source (i. e. tar archives). PHP 5.2.12 seems to be availabe.
 You can use
 
   # cd /usr/ports/lang/php5
   # make
   # make install
 
 Make sure - not make sure :-) - that your ports tree is up to
 date in order to recieve the latest version.
 
 
 
  After running gdb on the core dump I noticed it was the sqlite stuff
 that
  was dumping, so I re-ran configure with --without-sqlite
  --without-pdo-sqlite --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql
 
 Check the available options that can be set for the php5 port
 at compile time, either via make config, or enter them
 manually (e. g. in Makefile.local - I'm not sure if this
 mechanism is still supported).
 
 
 
  Now the gdb shows this:

  First off, the compile directory listed is wrong, don't know where it
 got
  php-5.2.11 from, that's the last version I built and is installed on
 this
  system. Maybe it's pulling that from the system php?
 
 Yes, correct.
 
 
 
  Secondly, even though I've told it not to use sqlite, it still seems
 to be.
 
 It is - by 5.2.11 (or by directadmin). Seems that you've not
 installed 5.2.12 with your custom options yet.
 
 
 
  Any help here would be appreciated in moving forward. My whole reason
 for
  needing to rebuild php is I need the pdo_mysql module instead of the
  pdo_sqlite version.
 
 As I said, I would suggest to try to achieve this through
 the ports system. It's easier than fighting ./configure. :-)

FreeBSD, OpenBSD and PC-BSD are all free software, and there is nothing I know 
of to stop you distributing and using them locally. You can find out more from
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BSD_licenses

Good luck - the software is of very high quality and very reliable.

You can do what you like with it - including using it in commercial
software. The GPL licence used by Linux is much more restrictive than
the BSD licence.

jaymax wrote:

 
 Does anyone know how to set root password on a new mysql installation from

This is the very first thing performed on a brand new fresh install.
The canonical procedure (and I haven't had to do it in a while so it is 
possible it may have changed) looks something like this:

As root at a '#' prompt do: mysql --user=root mysql

This brings up the mysql prompt:

mysqlGRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'localhost'[press return or 
enter]

at the - prompt type in the following command:

IDENTIFIED BY '' WITH GRANT OPTION;   [press return or enter]

The above should exit back the mysql prompt if all went well. This will 
allow root to login with no password, but only on localhost. If you wish to 
expand this for the same from any host execute the steps again with the 
below differences. Otherwise type quit at the mysql prompt to exit. The 
main reason the second step may be desirable is to admin from a different 
box using the MySQLAdminGUI for example. Be warned however!: If this box is 
accessible by anyone from anywhere it is a security hole as root has NOT yet 
been assigned a password! And this procedure does NOT assign any password, 
it only sets the access so you can.

mysqlGRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'%'   [press return or enter]

at the - prompt type in the following command:

IDENTIFIED BY '' WITH GRANT OPTION;   [press return or enter]

Next at mysql prompt just type quit to exit.

Restart mysql and now root can login with no password. Either use the 
command line to set the password, or the MySQLAdminGUI in the USERS section. 
The GUI is simple but I'll leave as an exercise for you to look up the CLI 
procedure in the MySQL docs should you get this far. You need to follow the 
above procedure first before you can log in as root in order to change the 
password.

To reiterate: the above does NOT assign a password, it only allows root 
initial access so he can then set a password. Check out:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/default-privileges.html

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/user-account-management.html 
 
 Can it be performed after starting the server with
 /usr/local/bin/mysqld_safe 
 
 Or for that matter with
 /usr/local/bin/mysql_secure_installation
 

Sorry but these two are not something I'm really familiar with. If the 
canonical approach doesn't work, maybe you can try to temporarily start it 
with neither of these in the mix, set the password, then restart it with 
these two active again.

Jails - Ethernet data vs IP data

2010-01-09 Thread Tim Judd
Hi all,


I bought a new SiliconDust HDHomeRun device which brings two Digital
coaxial tuners to an ethernet network.  From what I read and
understand about the HDHomeRun (HDHR), is that it does have an IP
address assigned to the system, but all packets of video are actually
just raw Ethernet packets/data that has it's own payload and protocol.

The port MythTV (to which I'm starting to love) maintainer has marked
the two pieces of MythTV as conflicting ports (I'll address to the
maintainer directly), so I build the frontend (the user interface if
you will) on the host, because it needs lots of X11/xorg.  The backend
runs as a daemon talking with MySQL to manage everything.  Since they
conflict, the backend goes onto a jail.

I have to port-compile the backend every time, the packages have
missing dependencies.  It takes quite a while.  I know the HDHR is
online, I can watch the video without MythTV interaction, but the
jailed backend isn't seeing it.  So I was hoping to see if I can query
the group and see if raw ethernet data can be delivered to a jail,
or if I'm just fishing in the empty fish bowl trying to get this to
work in a jail.


Thanks for ANY input in regards to limits the jail system might
have.  This is on a golden 8.0-RELEASE i386, haven't updated it yet.



Thanks loads!
