You are redirecting from local interface to local interface i.e. the result of redirect is still subject for redirect. Could you try one of the following: 1. Make this a `rdr in on $int_if`. 2. Make this a `rdr pass ... - 127.0.0.1 port 8080`. I prefer this way so port for transparent forwarding is unreachable except when explicitly redirecting to it. Personally I newer allow such ambiguity in my configs. Thanks! I'll try it out. I need to wait until tonight, the machine is in use at the moment. #1 I see your point. #2 this rule is for intended ftp traffic.

Make this a `rdr pass ... - 127.0.0.1 port 8080`. I prefer this way so port for transparent forwarding is unreachable except when explicitly redirecting to it. Personally I newer allow such ambiguity in my configs. #1 gives a syntax error when I try to load it. #2 My intention is to redirect only ftp traffic with this rule so that's why I use port 8021.

I can't get too close to the receiver for fear of ramming into the furniture. also, the backlight only lasts a few seconds ... too fast for me to scan everything. 1. is there any transmitter that will reach, say, 25 meters and whose data could be picked up by a card inside my computer? 2.

I can't give an honest opinion about DenyHosts or SSHGuard, having never used them. Fail2Ban, however, isn't specific to a service or action - simply a regex matches a log file and performs an action.

I tried to do as you suggest and change the partition type to freebsd-ufs, but there's a problem... # gpart modify -i 1 -t freebsd-ufs /dev/da1 gpart: Invalid argument # gpart modify -i 0 -t freebsd-ufs /dev/da1 gpart: index '0': No such file or directory Obviously, I'm doing this wrong, but what is the Right Way? (The error message Invalid argument is not terribly informative. It doesn't even indicate which argument is to blame. And I'm not sure if the index numbers that gpart uses start from 0 or from 1. The man page doesn't say.) P.S. When doing the newfs, I actually ended up having to do: newfs -U -f 4096 /dev/da1s1 because I was doing this on an old 8.3 system, so the default frag size there was still set at 2048. ___ 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

Offhand I'd guess they're both 0xa5, but have not looked. Use 'gpart modify'. Thanks Warren! I confess that I hadn't even thought about that. And as a result, the partition that I just backed up a substantial part of my system onto is still being listed as ntfs, even though I have done the newfs to it and (thus) it is now actually a UFS partition... not NTFS. % gpart show /dev/da1 =63 1953525104 da1 MBR (931G) 631985 - free - (992k) 2048 19535196161 ntfs (931G) 19535216643503 - free - (1.7M) I can still mount it as a UFS, no problem, so Im inclined to wonder what the type code on a partition is used for anyway. (FreeBSD doesn't seem to care if a partition is marked as NTFS as long as it actually has a UFS filesystem in it.) Mostly relevant when booting from that drive. Still, it would be bad for some NTFS utility to helpfully attempt repair of a UFS filesystem. I tried to do as you suggest and change the partition type to freebsd-ufs, but there's a problem... # gpart modify -i 1 -t freebsd-ufs /dev/da1 gpart: Invalid argument da1 is the drive. da1s1 is the first slice. (The error message Invalid argument is not terribly informative. It doesn't even indicate which argument is to blame. And I'm not sure if the index numbers that gpart uses start from 0 or from 1. The man page doesn't say.) Slice/partition number is the third column in the gpart output above. MBR slice numbering starts at one. P.S. When doing the newfs, I actually ended up having to do: newfs -U -f 4096 /dev/da1s1 because I was doing this on an old 8.3 system, so the default frag size there was still set at 2048. ___ 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: How to create a partition for FreeBSD 9.0?

Thank you, so this should work and if it doesn't work, I can't install FreeBSD? Anything else I can try? FWIW on this machine are Linux installs only, used file systems are ext3, ext4 and ntfs [1].
