It's a cheap professional audio device, IOW it's not a consumer or  
semi-professional device, so cheap doesn't mean low quality. Professional  
and semi-professional devices usually don't support surround sound, but at  
least the professional devices provide special interfaces, such as AES/EBU  
and ADAT. The card I'm using comes with two analog IOs, AES/EBU, ADAT and  
it supports consumer's SPDIF.

Security updates

2013-01-23 Thread Ralf Mardorf

Hi :)

since I updated the ports tree I'm able to fix one issue after the other,  
e.g. GDM now can start Xfce4.
IIUC correctly freebsd-update (  
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=freebsd-updatesektion=8 ) will  
not take care about updates for e.g. Firefox, since I guess it doesn't  
belong to the base system.


Because compiling does take very long, I will not update the whole ports  
tree that often, I alos like to keep software versions that fit to my  
needs when ever possible, but I guess without breaking dependencies it  
theoretically should be possible to update Internet browsers, MUAs etc.  
only from time to time, for security reasons.


Is it possible to update just some Internet stuff?

Ralf

yes, using some tools. Take a look at portmaster or portupgrade. Maybe
you should install portaudit too. It tells you for which ports security
flaws have been found.

To update a single port using portmaster you would run 
# portmaster www/firefox
for example.

It seems that the /var partition has not been unmounted
properly. Perform a manual file system check and retry.

The command

# fsck -yf /dev/ada0s1d

should be applied in single user mode, with /var being
unmounted.

To make sure file systems are clean _prior_ to booting
the system, put

background_fsck=NO

into /etc/rc.conf; this may lead to longer startup times
when something is strange regarding file systems, but
it will prevent you from booting into a possibly damaged
environment (which could cause more trouble and maybe even
data loss, which justifies the longer boot time in my
opinion).

I setup a number of servers with 9.1 and had the same issue.  I'm not sure 
why, all of the installation went with no errors.


I ended up with this in rc.conf:
fsck_y_enable=YES
background_fsck=NO
force_fsck=YES

After a few reboots I was able to take it out.

Also if you have this in /etc/rc.conf:
dumpdev=YES

It always does a dump even on reboot, which also marks the filesystems as 
dirty.

That doesn't seem to conform to what /etc/defaults/rc.conf
says:

dumpdev=NO# Device to crashdump to (device name, AUTO, or NO).
dumpdir=/var/crash# Directory where crash dumps are to be stored
savecore_flags=   # Used if dumpdev is enabled above, and present.
crashinfo_enable=YES  # Automatically generate crash dump summary.
crashinfo_program=/usr/sbin/crashinfo # Script to generate crash dump summary.

So YES looks invalid.

But note that I could be wrong here, I'm checking on a v8
system, not v9, so maybe the configuration has actually
been changed...

Wine-fbsd64 updated to 1.5.22 (32bit Wine for 64bit FreeBSD)

2013-01-23 Thread David Naylor
Hi,

Packages [1] for wine-fbsd64-1.5.21 have been uploaded to mediafire [2].  The 
packages for FreeBSD 10 have been temporarily discontinued due to build errors 
[3].  

Please read the installation messages, if you use the nVidia graphics driver, 
for further information.  

FAQ
---
Q: Wine crashing when launching some 3D programs (aka games)
A: This appears to be some clash with software however I have not been able to 
isolate where the problem is occurring (wine, ports, world, kernel, i386, 
amd64).  A possible solution in to try upgrading, or downgrading, software 
used however I have not been able to fix the problem with my attempts.  If you 
find a solution please email me, or post the solution on the mailing list.

Q: wine: failed to initialize: / usr/local/lib32/wine/ntdll.dll.so: Undefined
symbol _ThreadRuneLocale
A: This problem is specific to FreeBSD-9.0, please either stick with 
wine-1.5.10 or update to a newer version of FreeBSD (-STABLE or 9.1).  
Apologies for the inconvenience.  

Q: Creating pkgng packages for FreeBSD-9
A: When there is no demand for FreeBSD-8 packages I'll create additional pkgng 
packages for FreeBSD-9.  Since it is possible to install the existing pkg 
packages in a pkgng environment (which I do) this is not a high priority.  

Q: Wine doesn't run (properly) with a clang built world
A: Clang was compiling i386 on a 16-byte boundary while gcc was using a 4-byte 
boundary.  To fix, recompile world after ensuring your sources include 
http://beta.freshbsd.org/commit/freebsd/r242835 or the relevant MFC.

David

You can set the password to expire virtually immediately:

   pw usermod -n username -p +1m

or add the '-p +1m' bit to the 'pw useradd' line used to create the account.

I believe this will mean the user is required to set a new password on
login after the password has expired.  Might be an idea to test that though.

Setuid binaries and File Ownerships in FreeBSD9.0

2013-01-23 Thread Martin McCormick
The executable in question is a C program whos file
permissions are 4755 and the file belongs to root so all files
it opens are also owned by root and that works properly, but
what I need is for this application to first open a few files owned by
the caller and then later, upgrade back to root and write to
files the caller can not write to. I was hoping to avoid using
chown and chgrp and simply let the privilege level of the
application dictate ownership of any file it opens.

When the application first runs, it gets the UID and GID
of the user and uses 

setuid(heruid); and setgid(hergid); to temporarily downgrade and
those files are owned by the right user but setuid(0); doesn't
appear to upgrade back to root.

Is there any other strategy that gets one back to root
short of using chown and then a system call and never
downgrading privilege?

Thank you.

Hi Peter,

In order for svn-export to work in incremental mode, you need to use
the --revision-file argument like so:

python3 svn-export-2013.1/svn-export -r rev.dat
http://svn.gna.org/svn/nasmail/trunk nasmail

Then at some point in the future, run the same command.  svn-export
will read rev.dat, compare the version in there with the current HEAD
revision.  If they are different, the script creates a diff and
applies it to the local directory.

Hope that helps,
Greg

Thank you. I had read the man page several times and like most
man pages, it is a summary and one can miss some of the finer
points which I seem to be missing right now.

Re: creating new user account password.

I know I can create a new user account having a password same as the

Is there a way to do that?


You can set the password to expire virtually immediately:

   pw usermod -n username -p +1m

or add the '-p +1m' bit to the 'pw useradd' line used to create the account.

I believe this will mean the user is required to set a new password on
login after the password has expired.  Might be an idea to test that though.

Cheers,

Thank you both, Matthew and Greg

I added -p 12-12-12 as a date in the past day 12 month 12 year 12.
I tested and right after entering the account name pw I was asked for a 
new password. That is what I wanted. Matthew gave me the -p option to 
use on the pw adduser command and Greg gave me the clue to use a date in 
the past.

No report now, just a short note:

I noticed, that the OSS4 plugin also workes without the oss4 dependency.
Can someone please try this as well?

- deinstall audacious-plugins
- deinstall oss4
- change audacious-plugins/Makefile and comment out the oss4 BUILD_DEPENDENCY
- install audacious-plugins
- start audacious

for me it works... please some more tests.

However, using jackd it does play still ok.
When I switched to SDL output, the sound became louder and muddy, but it's  
still ok.
When I switched to OSS4 output, the sound is equal to SDL, perhaps it does  
sound different to jackd (using OSS), regarding to the loudness.

For ALSA the terminal output continued with

It does work, but plays with chattering gaps, the same effect when  
using zynaddsubfx by jackd using OSS, when I chose ADAT, but now I used  
the analog IOs only. This effect can differ, sometimes it's more like  
noise, for ADAT I experienced the noise like sound only for this  
synaddsubfx test.

Re: Setuid binaries and File Ownerships in FreeBSD9.0

   The executable in question is a C program whos file
 permissions are 4755 and the file belongs to root so all files

 what I need is for this application to first open a few files owned by
 the caller and then later, upgrade back to root and write to
 files the caller can not write to. I was hoping to avoid using
 chown and chgrp and simply let the privilege level of the
 application dictate ownership of any file it opens.
 
   When the application first runs, it gets the UID and GID
 of the user and uses 
 
 setuid(heruid); and setgid(hergid); to temporarily downgrade and
 those files are owned by the right user but setuid(0); doesn't
 appear to upgrade back to root.
 
   Is there any other strategy that gets one back to root
 short of using chown and then a system call and never
 downgrading privilege?

seteuid(2) ?

Alternately, open the privileged files before dropping root; you should
still be able to write to them afterwards.
