INN port version 2.4.6 instead of 2.5.X
Hi, I can't find an explanation of why the port of INN (news/inn, http://www.isc.org/software/inn) is still on version 2.4.6 (EOL) instead of 2.5.X. Is there someone who can enlighten me ? And how can I find this kind of information on my own ?

I'm not a pro FreeBSD user, but wouldn't the FTPD program be more responsible for the user's login credentials since that's what they're using that's causing the wrong permissions to be applied? From what I remember, FTPD verifies the users login, but doesn't actually execute any login scripts associated with that user. I did not said it explicitly but when I did a switch user I actually meant a su command from the shell (I deactivated user's ssh login possibility). You made me find the point about my use of the su command, I forgot to make a full login using su - user instead of su user ... So, login class applies correctly. In the ftpd(8) manual the -u documentation specifies that login.conf is read : The default file creation mode mask is set to umask, which is expected to be an octal numeric value. Refer to umask(2) for details. This option may be overridden by login.conf(5). ___ 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

df command reports wrong value after fd have been released
Hi, I removed a file from /var using all my filesystem space, then restarted the process that handled its file descriptors. I then, for another reason, had to reboot the system. During the boot I had a warning saying that the filesystem is full. I did not checked the fs state with df before, thinking it was resolved. df now still shows me the fs is full, I stopped the process then checked the fd with lsof, they were removed. I changed the log file name then restarted the process. lsof shows me that the process no longer uses fd on this ghost file. I'm out of ideas to resolve the problem, as I'm out of knowledge to understand it.

lockf command
Hi, I'm writing a (very simple) script to avoid concurrent processes to do the same task. Background: After a task is done by a service, it synchronizes it with other(s) server(s). I wish that if a synchronization is not done during one or more tasks are completed, not concurrent synchronization processes are launched. According to the flock manual It seems to be simple: If lockf successfully acquires the lock, it returns the exit status produced by command. Otherwise, it returns one of the exit codes defined in sysexits(3), as follows: So this script should work: #!/bin/sh flock -k /tmp/lockfile command arguments But as far as I tested it doesn't act like this : - Command #1 : flock -k /tmp/lockfile read input, the shell is waiting for an input. - Command #2 : flock -k /tmp/lockfile ls -hal /tmp Launching command #1, then #2. The command #2 is waiting. When command #1 is finished command #2 is executed. I wish that if command #2 can't acquire the lock, lockf exits (exit 0 would be nice). If I set -t 1, lockf is quite what I'm waiting for. But I like to do this in a clear way : if it can't acquire the lock it exits, no timeout wait. Am I misunderstanding something ? What should I change ?

Partial DNS tree
Hi everyone, This is not the preferred mailing list to ask this question, but I think people here can easily answer. I've seen in the past that DNS servers can resolve some FQDNs while forwarding (or caching) other resolutions of the same DN. But I can't remember the word qualifying this technology, and had hard time finding this on google. Can someone please point me to the correct direction ? The goal of this is to have some FQDN (i.e. : svn.domain.com) resolved on a local network, and others (i.e. www.domain.com) resolved on the Internet. I think this is the best solution for a subsidiary to have local resources while also can hit remote resources. And it should be easy to maintain.

Add a SSL certificate authority
Hello,
I'm trying to add a certificate authority unsuccessfully.
The Equifax certificates authority seems not to be registered in
FreeBSD, so I tried to add it on my server.
I'm logged in root and in its homedir.
#uname -a

#chmod u+x c_rehash
#./c_rehash ~/
Doing /root/
Equifax_Secure_Global_eBusiness_CA-1.pem = 74c26bd0.0
My goal being to checkout an SVN repository, I re-launch the command :
# svn co https://svn.cyanide-studio.com/admin
admin-svn
[r...@backup]
Error validating server certificate for

while(exists $hashlist{$hash.r$suffix}) {
# Hash matches: if fingerprint matches its a
duplicate cert
if($hashlist{$hash.r$suffix} eq $fprint) {
print STDERR WARNING: Skipping
duplicate CRL $fname\n;
return;
}
$suffix++;
}
But if I launch the command twice, it still seems to indicate that it's
adding the CA.
I'm not sure if I do it correctly, but found nothing more relevant on
google and in the freebsd's handbook.
Can someone point me a good way to add a CA ?

Number of columns when redirecting ps command stdout to a file

If I execute the command on the console, the result lines are truncated depending on the number of columns of the client console, what is fine.
