Problems with EeePC 1005HA wireless (Wireless Atheros 9285)
Hello everybody. I sent this mail to freebsd-stable and didn't get any answer, so I'm retrying in freebsd-questions to see if I have more luck as the audience is supposed to be broader. I'm new to the list, so hello everybody and pleased to meet you all. I have installed the recent 8.1 BETA 1 on an Eee PC 1005HA and I'm experiencing problems with the wireless card. It is correctly recognized and configured. I have an ath0 device and I can create an wlan0 without problems. I can even scan with wlan0 and sometimes I see my wireless router. The problem is when wpa_supplicant tries to register with the network that it fails. BTW, I have a WEP system with long key (13 hex digits). I have sniffed the wireless network with another computer and the packets seem to be all correct: the Eee PC sends correct packets to the air, and the wifi router replies them correctly, but wpa_supplicant reports registration timed out, as if it wasn't receiving the packets. It is nevertheless very strange because around 2-3 weeks ago I had the STABLE branch installed on the same Eee PC and the wifi worked (not always, but it succedeed always when it was near the router and the PC was just being rebooted). Does anybody experience the same problem or has any hint on what could be happening? I have compiled my kernel with AH_DEBUG and ATH_DEBUG so I can also send dmesg traces if anyone can analyze them.

Problems running Bacula BAT
Hello I still have som problems getting Bacula-Bat working. Here is what i have done so far: 1. Installed FreeBSD 8.0 rel 2. From the ports catalogue i have installed Gnome Lite 3. Uppgraded all the ports with CVsup 4. Then I installed Bacula 5.0.0.1 rel (with MySQL), altso from the ports catalogue (/usr/ports/sysutils/bacula-server) 5. Installed BAT 5.0.0.1 (/usr/ports/sysutils/bacula-bat) 6. Installed MySql 5.0.90(/usr/ports/databases/mysql55-server) 7. Ran the 3 scripts to install the databases etc that is needed to run Bacula on the MySQL server # cd /usr/local/share/bacula/ # ./grant_mysql_privileges # ./create_mysql_database # ./make_mysql_tables I then tried to start Bat by opening Gnome, starting a terminalwindow and typing bat. Bat starts, but have som problems connecting. . It continues to try to connect to the database i think. In the lower left corner of the BAT Gui i continues to display the folloving: Connecting to Director Localhost:9010 and then times out saying Connection fails Checked if bacula is running (ps –aux | grep bacula) and it both the dir/sd is running. bacula 746 0.0 0.1 9996 4508 ?? Ss9:11AM 0:00.01 /usr/local/sbin/bacula-sd -u bacula -g bacula -v -c /usr/local/etc/bacula-sd.conf bacula 1192 0.0 0.2 13364 6132 ?? Ss 10:23AM 0:00.03 /usr/local/sbin/bacula-dir -u bacula -g bacula -v -c /usr/local/etc/bacula-dir.conf Also checked if MySQL was running (ps –aux | grep mysql) Did not get any result on this, but when I tried to start the database, I got the message that the process was already running, so assuming that MySQL is running. Now I checked the log (/var/db/backula/log) and got the following error message: 22-Jun 10:31 backupserver.domainname.no-dir: ERROR in authenticate.c:418 Unable to authenticate console *UserAgent* at client:127.0.0.1:36131. Also turned on de-bugging in BAT and get the following when I try to start BAT: backupserver# bat bat: bcomm/dircomm.cpp:188 DirComm 0 BAILING Connection failed backupserver.domainname.no-dir bat: bcomm/dircomm.cpp:222 Returning FALSE from DirComm-connect_dir : 0 backupserver.domainname.no-dir bat: mainwin.cpp:105 Setting initial window to backupserver.domainname.no-dir bat: console/console.cpp:860 DirComm 1 About to Create and Connect backupserver.domainname.no-dir bat: bcomm/dircomm.cpp:188 DirComm 1 BAILING Connection failed backupserver.domainname.no-dir bat: bcomm/dircomm.cpp:222 Returning FALSE from DirComm-connect_dir : 1 backupserver.domainname.no-dir bat: console/console.cpp:868 DirComm 1 NOT Connected backupserver.domainname.no-dir bat: console/console.cpp:860 DirComm 2 About to Create and Connect backupserver.domainname.no-dir bat: bcomm/dircomm.cpp:188 DirComm 2 BAILING Connection failed backupserver.domainname.no-dir Anybody have any idea on what could be wrong?

Sendmail and spam/antivirus
Hello all. I have a small machine with Freebsd 7.3, it is running sendmail for a few email accounts. I'd like to implement, the easiest and most secure way to do it since machine is on a remote place where I have not access, I'd like to implement a spam filter and an antivirus. I installed from ports spamd but seems like it is not doing anything. What would be your advice on what to install to have and anivirus and an anti spam in the server? Sendmail is working fine and there are just a few email accounts there so no need to change it, since some of the accounts have been public in the last years they are in LOT of spammers lists and the spam and messages with virus has increased a lot in the last weeks so if possible to filter some will help. Thanks in advance.

Fujitsu T1010 digitizer
I am looking for help in getting a Fujitsu touch panel working with FreeBSD 8.0 and Gnome. I have here what I have so far, what I need is some advice on what to do next. Someone who goes by zmiq2 has developed a basic but functional set of programs that do what I need, for Ubuntu. That code identifies the Fujitsu digitizer as vendor ID 0x0430 and device ID 0x0530.

If you do not have the card yet, an IP camera is an easy setup for a security cam. I have some Axis and off brand cameras doing this type of work.

X not responding
I am having a problem with Xorg under FreeBSD 8.0 RELEASE and 8.1 RC1: When I type startx, the X server starts, and some xterm windows open, but it will not respond to keyboard or mouse input. The mouse pointer won't move, and the only keyboard input that does anything is CTRL-ALT-F1 etc. to switch virtual terminals. If I install FreeBSD 7.1, which installs Xorg straight from the installation CD, it works fine. Under version 8, I've tried installing from ports and packages, and I get this problem. When I first had this problem, I was running it under VirtualBox, so I thought maybe it was because VirtualBox's FreeBSD support is incomplete. But now I've tried it on real PC hardware, and I have the same problem. Obviously some people must be running X under FreeBSD 8, so I must be doing something wrong in my installation or configuration, but I can't guess what it is.

It is intented to increase the cost of sending spam at little cost to your server by keeping the spammer busy trying. If you're concerned with blocking spam from a limited set of known sources, then you can create block lists in your firewall. If you know that you will not receive legitimate mails from certain countries, you can block their assigned IP ranges. If you're trying to block large number of unknown sources, then I suggest subscribing to spamhaus' lists and configure your server to adhere strictly to the protocols. You may wish to subscribe to lists of dynamic ip-ranges. These are often considered spam sources hosting a large number of bot-nets However, you may also block mail from legitimate servers run by people who like to run their own home server - such as FreeBSD users. There is only limited benefit of some kind of rate control and I believe that such controls must be implemented in your mail server. Implementing rate control mail also delay legitimate mail, and depending on how you do it, spammers may even cause a DOS against your server. Anyway, to avoid spammers eating up server resources, check your server config: 1. ensure that the spam decision is reached as fast as possible 2. consider early whitelisting of the most common legitimate mail sources 3. DNS block lists should be last as they add additional delay, possibly you can configure a local dns cache to shorten delay BR, Erik -- Erik Nørgaard Ph: +34.666334818/+34.915211157 http://www.locolomo.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

.sh ip address
I looking to take the last group number in a ip address and bump the
number by 1.
BY the way is there some name for each group of numbers in the ip address?
Something like.
org_ip=10.0.10.2
short_ip=need command to strip off the 2 so short_ip contains 10.0.10.
and ip_suffix= ends up holding the 2, then add 1 to the ip_suffix.
ip_suffix=$(( ${ip_suffix + 1 ))
org_ip=${short_ip}${ip_suffix}
Thinking there must be some common way of manipulating ip addresses that
I just don't know about.
Thanks for your help.

Octet.

man sh | less -pParameter Expansion
org_ip=10.0.10.2
${org_ip##*.} # yields 2
${org_ip%.*}# yields 10.0.10
Do read the manpage.

Copy a FreeBSD 8* install to larger HD
Aloha, I am looking for the easiest way to copy a fresh working FreeBSD 8* HD install (Manolis version) to a bigger HD that I found. I plan to have the new HD in the same box for doing this copy. Can I use sysinstall to make the new default slices on the big HD and then move the OS and directories/files to them? What command (utility) do I use? dd or cp or some other to copy the files.

Re: Copy a FreeBSD 8* install to larger HD
Al and others, One solution or way to do it would be to get Clonezilla Live CD http://clonezilla.org/clonezilla-live/ Connect both hard drives check carefully which one is the smaller one and select it as the source, and copy it exactly as it is. Let clonezilla do its thing. When finished, shutdown the machine and unplug the old/smaller hard drive and leave the other one plugged in and start the machine. Everything should work normally.

before i even =touch= my server again....
a friend was over to help with things; among them was the fact that
for unknown reasons, my KVM wired don't worse consistantly from my
single keyboad to my [new{2009}] server. things happened so that we
didn't double-check before my friend left.
mail broke for unknown reasons. i KVM'd into ethic and fired up
dovecot. no-joy. then i figured a theraputic reboot was in order.
Disaster. all hell broke loose. i lost keyboard connection to ethic
and coul not ssh in from tao. long-story-short, after bugging my wife
to reboot umpteen time i got under desk four or five time and got ethic
limping along. fsck seemed to fix most slices, but a check as root
told me the /var was//IS still dirty. Q: how can i umount /var
and run fsck -y without going single-user? remember that in order to
regain keyboard control of ethic i have to crawl under deskm, muck
around, etc.
an hour+ ago i tried to umount /var AND umount /dev/ad4s2d and keep
getting a busy. for obvious reasons that my logs are being written to
constantly. how does fsck work, backgrounded?
[[note that shutting of /etc/mail wouldn't work because my /var/log
directory is constantly filling up with the kiddie cracker output.]]
thanks for any ideas,
gary
