You could also open the file in vi or Vim and give it this command:
:%s/$/^M/
Note that you don't type in that ^M by using the ^ and M keys on the
keyboard. Instead, you first type ctrl-v then press the Enter key.

I'll put your perl exaple with -pi.bak into my ~/bin directory.

Sendmail as client via smarthost and ssl
To send email from my computer at work I need to send through a smarthost. In the past I had added the line: define(`SMART_HOST', `[smpt.ki.se]') to my mc file, plus some address rewriting for outgoing mail. This has worked for years. Now the mail system has changed and it requires some authentication, connection via ssl to a different server and via a different port (587). Since then I have not been able to get my computer to send email via the smarthost. Not knowing much about sendmail, I tried google and more or less blindly followed suggestions. Here is what I have done so far, but sending email still does not work: 1. recompiled sendmail with sasl by adding the following lines to /etc/make.conf + installing security/cyrus-sasl2 + recompiling sendmail: SENDMAIL_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include -DSASL=2 SENDMAIL_LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib SENDMAIL_LDADD=-lsasl2 2. Adding the following line to my mc file (+ make all install restart): define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `EXTERNAL GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')dnl FEATURE(`authinfo',`hash /etc/mail/auth/client-info')dnl dnl Set port define(`RELAY_MAILER_ARGS', `IPC $h 587') I also changed the smarthost to the new name: define(`SMART_HOST', `[send.ki.se]') 3. create the file /etc/mail/auth/client-info + run makemap hash client-info client-info: AuthInfo:[send.ki.se] I:LOGIN P:PASSWORD When trying to send email the returned email from the Mail Delivery Subsystem MAILER-DAEMON contains the following error message: - The following addresses had permanent fatal errors - christopher.ill...@web.de (reason: 530 5.7.1 Client was not authenticated) - Transcript of session follows - ... while talking to send.ki.se.: MAIL From:christopher.ill...@ki.se SIZE=473 AUTH= 530 5.7.1 Client was not authenticated 554 5.0.0 Service unavailable In /var/log/maillog the following error messages appear: Oct 28 13:52:53 muck sm-mta[19110]: STARTTLS=client, relay=send.ki.se., version=TLSv1/SSLv3, verify=FAIL, cipher=AES128-SHA, bits=128/128 Oct 28 13:52:58 muck sm-mta[19110]: o9SBqqHs019108: to=christopher.ill...@web.de, ctladdr=ch...@muck.ks.se (1001/1001), delay=00:00:06, xdelay=00:00:06, mailer=relay, pri=30473, relay=send.ki.se.

That said, go back to the main port directory, make clean, make rmconfig, and build again; *don't* change the port options when given the choice (after all, the port did build on a clean system, so the problem's probably something you set up). Also make sure there's nothing relevant in /etc/make.conf.

Re: [OT] writing filters in sh
Quoth Chad Perrin on Wednesday, 27 October 2010:
I know that in sh you can get the contents out of files specified as
command line arguments:
while read data; do
echo $data
done $@
I know you can also get the contents of files from pipes and redirects:
while read data; do
echo $data
done
In Perl, you can use a single construct to do both and, unlike the first
sh example, it can also take multiple filenames as arguments and
effectively concatenate their contents:
while () {
print $_;
}
I'm not exactly an *expert* in sh, in part because when things start
getting interesting while I'm writing shell scripts I tend to just use
a more robust language like Perl. Please let me know if there's some way
to use a simple idiom like the Perl example to get the same results in
sh.

Chad Perrin [ original content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ]
Here's a way to do what you're wanting to do. Unfortunately, it isn't a
generalized, single construct:
#!/bin/sh
if [ $# -ge 1 ];then
exec cat $@ | $0
exit
fi
while read data; do
echo $data
done
My lame attempts to generalize the first paragraph into an alias,
function, or shell script have met with disappointment.

mediatomb and m3u issues
Hi, This is for any mediatomb users. I recently installed Mediatomb with mencoder. Everything works solid on the video side of things.. I can stream video from my FreeBSD machine to my PS3 without any issue. The only issue I see is when I add my music to the mediatomb db. I keep getting a segmentaion fault: Oct 27 17:10:57 hbca kernel: pid 92235 (mediatomb), uid 1001: exited on signal 11 (core dumped) Soon as mediatomb crashes, I check the last file it crashed on, usually a .m3u and remove that .m3u file and then it add the files to the db fine... Anyone know of another workaround??

You probably missed the rc.conf entry, described in the message that was
printed when you installed the port. Specifically:
In order to run the LDAP server, you need to edit
%%PREFIX%%/etc/openldap/slapd.conf
to suit your needs and add the following lines to /etc/rc.conf:

Then start the server with

or reboot.
Where %%PREFIX%% is presumably /usr/local.

When considering sed(1), recall that: Normally, sed cyclically copies a line of input, not including its terminating newline character, into a pattern space, ...

Characters can however be inserted at the end of the line (before the original \n) with: s/$/text to insert/ as Chad used in his perl solution. Unfortunately FreeBSD sed's substitute doesn't recognise \n as newline in a substitution, although it's possible to insert a literal newline character through various shell-dependent techniques. In this particular case however, sed does offer the pièce de résistance: sed G The operation is left as a learning exercise for the reader.

slightly OT... .
First, since abiword and OOo both work across many platforms, this isn't a FreeBSD question, but humor me anyway. A [long] while ago I checked on the OOOForums list and got the howto's of changing this into ``this'' in openoffice. [[And 'this into `this': it's a two-fer]]. Has anybody tried this with abiword?? Clues, tips please? (Figure I'll ask here first.) My ascii-to-markup program does the same thing, but only for double-quotes since the fact that the zillions of contractions like can't, would've, and informal english like So: howzit hangin'? gave me *many* second thoughts. 1) Does anybody onlist have any idea howto turn 'this' into lsquo' ? In the HTML ampersand chars list, that's what it is called. Using the ampersand and ints it is #8286; -- minus the quotes, of course. 2) Iwould like some clues howto automate this either via abiword OR algorithm. It took some large N days back in 1994 when I first hacked atom to realize that I would have to use recursion to get the left|beginning and right|closing double quotes. 3) Or should I give up and do this by eyeball?! tia, gary -- Gary Kline kl...@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix The 7.90a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org/index.php http://journey.thought.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

In Perl, you can use a single construct to do both and, unlike the first

while () {

I'm not exactly an *expert* in sh, in part because when things start
getting interesting while I'm writing shell scripts I tend to just use
a more robust language like Perl. Please let me know if there's some way
to use a simple idiom like the Perl example to get the same results in
sh.
see here:

For example (NOTE: this is just an example -- the function itself is
inefficient when one considers instead `tail -r file' and `tail -r
file' and `cat file | tail -r', though the function serves as a good
example of how to achieve what you want):
# ... | lrev

The ; denotes a line break, means that you can use EITHER ; or
a newline. In the original construct,
if [ $# -ge 1 ]; then
exec cat $@ | $0
exit
fi
you can change the ; into
if [ $# -ge 1 ]
then
exec cat $@ | $0
exit
fi
which is often seen in scripts. In this case, no ; is required (or

Tested, and it had a bug ('if' is extraneous). It also waits for input
even if it has file arguments. But it's easily corrected:
#!/bin/sh
[ $# -ge 1 ] exec cat $@ exit | $0
while read data; do echo $data; done
The first line can be converted to an alias, like so:
alias inargs='[ $# -ge 1 ] exec cat $@ exit | $0'
So, if you add the alias to your profile, you can use it to enable the
behavior in any script:
#!/bin/sh
inargs
while read data; do echo $data; done
Thanks for the pointer in the right direction.

while read data; do

My lame attempts to generalize the first paragraph into an alias,
function, or shell script have met with disappointment.
Here you go:
alias myfilter=/bin/sh -c ''myfilter() { if [ $# -gt 0 ]; then while
[ $# -gt 0 ]; do [ -f $1 ] myfilter $1; shift 1; done; else
while read LINE; do : some transform ; echo $LINE; done; fi; }; myfilter
$@'' -- /bin/sh
The above is to be entered as a single command-line.
NOTE: If you're using either csh or tcsh, you only need to make one
change... change alias myfilter=... to instead alias
myfilter ... (that's right, just change the equals sign to a space).
Here's a demo:
$ printf Line 1\nLine 2\nLine 3\n | myfilter
Line 1
Line 2
Line 3
$ head -2 /etc/rc.conf | myfilter
# This file now contains just the overrides from /etc/defaults/rc.conf
# please make all changes to this file.
$ myfilter /etc/rc.conf | head -2
# This file now contains just the overrides from /etc/defaults/rc.conf
# please make all changes to this file.
$ cat /etc/rc.conf | myfilter | head -2
# This file now contains just the overrides from /etc/defaults/rc.conf
# please make all changes to this file.
$ myfilter somefile
Line 1
Line 2
Line 3
^D
$ cat somefile
Line 1
Line 2
Line 3
I was hoping for a generalized, simple idiom for this, rather than
needing to implement it myself, for demonstration purposes (and for easy
reuse later, of course). Your solution does not exactly fit my
preferences for simplicity, but I might include it in an article I'm
writing anyway. It's simple and readable enough that it should not
clutter up the article much.
I tested it for some simple use cases, and it works well. Thanks for
saving me a little trouble.

ssh key authentication problem...
Can anyone help me debug an ssh key-based authentication problem? I have an 8.1-R server running sshd, with one user account. On the server, I've used ssh-keygen to generate id_rsa and id_rsa.pub. On my laptop I then pulled the id_rsa.pub file over and: % cat id_rsa.pub .ssh/authorized_keys Now I try to login from the laptop (also 8.1-R) to the server. It pauses for a second and presents me with a 'Password:' prompt, so obviously the key authentication isn't working.

Any clues ? Things I am probably missing ? Does Anyone else notice this (odd)

It's probably coming from /usr/src/sbin/mount_msdosfs/mount_msdosfs.c:
if (set_charset(iov, iovlen, cs_local, cs_dos) == -1)
err(EX_OSERR, msdosfs_iconv);
...since set_charset() tries to load the msdosfs_iconv libiconv kernel
modules:
if (modfind(msdosfs_iconv) 0)
if (kldload(msdosfs_iconv) 0 || modfind(msdosfs_iconv) 0) {
warnx(cannot find or load \msdosfs_iconv\ kernel module);
return (-1);
}
kldload() fails with EPERM if you are not root:
[EPERM]You do not have access to read the file or link it
with the kernel. You should be the root user to be
able to use the kld system calls.
Once root has loaded these modules, you can invoke mount_msdosfs as a normal
user because they are already available. You can put kldload msdosfs_iconv
into /etc/rc.local, or maybe tweak /boot/loader.conf to load these at boot if
you prefer.

Nothing changes. I get the same error messages as with

I assume from your config this would go in /etc/mail/auth/client-info

Providing SMTP AUTH Data when sendmail acts as Client
-
If sendmail acts as client, it needs some information how to
authenticate against another MTA. This information can be provided
by the ruleset authinfo or by the option DefaultAuthInfo. The
authinfo ruleset looks up {server_name} using the tag AuthInfo: in
the access map. If no entry is found, {server_addr} is looked up
in the same way and finally just the tag AuthInfo: to provide
default values. Note: searches for domain parts or IP nets are
only performed if the access map is used; if the authinfo feature
is used then only up to three lookups are performed (two exact
matches, one default).
(I also set up SSL separately as i'm using plain method but you seem to
have that covered.)
Hope thats useful to you.

My ascii-to-markup program does the same thing, but only for double-quotes since the fact that the zillions of contractions like can't, would've, and informal english like So: howzit hangin'? gave me *many* second thoughts. 1) Does anybody onlist have any idea howto turn 'this' into lsquo' ? In the HTML ampersand chars list, that's what it is called. Using the ampersand and ints it is #8286; -- minus the quotes, of course. 2) Iwould like some clues howto automate this either via abiword OR algorithm. It took some large N days back in 1994 when I first hacked atom to realize that I would have to use recursion to get the left|beginning and right|closing double quotes. 3) Or should I give up and do this by eyeball?! tia, gary -- Gary Kline kl...@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix The 7.90a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org/index.php http://journey.thought.org -- Gary Kline kl...@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix The 7.90a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org/index.php http://journey.thought.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 ___ 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

If it's just about the text, the pure filter programs should be sufficient. Otherwise, try to load them in OpenOffice and see how you can export them from there; ^A ^C and ^V into a text editor should work from there, too.

Re: ssh key authentication problem...
Peter, Have you verified permissions of 700 on .ssh and 640 on authorized_keys and authorized_keys2? If you do not have an authorized_keys2 simply copy the former to that name and give it a go. Cheers, Mikel King _ From: Peter Harrison [mailto:peter.piggy...@virgin.net] To: questi...@freebsd.org Sent: Thu, 28 Oct 2010 15:39:53 -0400 Subject: ssh key authentication problem... Can anyone help me debug an ssh key-based authentication problem? I have an 8.1-R server running sshd, with one user account. On the server, I've used ssh-keygen to generate id_rsa and id_rsa.pub. On my laptop I then pulled the id_rsa.pub file over and: % cat id_rsa.pub .ssh/authorized_keys Now I try to login from the laptop (also 8.1-R) to the server. It pauses for a second and presents me with a 'Password:' prompt, so obviously the key authentication isn't working.

Re: Resetting the sound system
2010/10/28 Michaël Grünewald michaelgrunew...@yahoo.fr Dear list, the audio software I use sometimes seems to handle unappropriately its input and leave the sound system in a strange state. When this happens, the lowest frequencies of the played sound are very attenuated and what is still audible sounds unpleasantly metallic. Rebooting the machine immediately brings up the sound system in shape again, but it would be nice if they were a more sensible way to reset it! Here are the relevant lines of `dmesg`: pcm0: VIA VT8237 port 0xe100-0xe1ff irq 22 at device 17.5 on pci0 pcm0: [ITHREAD] pcm0: VIA Technologies VIA1617A AC97 Codec pcm0: VIA DXS Enabled: DXS 4 / SGD 1 / REC 1 Best regards, Michael Not sure if there's an easier way, but if you've got the audio driver kldloaded then just unload and reload it. If it's compiled in your kernel then I don't know. kldunload snd_via8233 kldload snd_via8233 Mark ___ 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
