OpenVPN vm cant connect to other VM's
Hi guys Im struggling with a freebsd vm, that I have that I use for a VPN connection too, from my workstation to my home LAN. And I was wondering if someone could peer review me and my problem. OpenVPN is working beautifully. I.e. I can connect to some services (apache etc) that I run directly on my FreeBSD / openvpn vm. What im now trying to achieve is that I can connect to other VMs / machines on my home LAN. Im using tun for my VPN, and my pf.conf looks like so (please see the nat on ...) [root@freebsd /usr/home/bclark]# cat /etc/pf.conf ext_if=re0 vpn_if=tun0 int_net=10.0.0.0/24 vpn_net=192.168.200.0/24 set skip on lo0 set optimization normal #set block-policy drop set limit { states 2, frags 1, src-nodes 2 } # Normalization: reassemble fragments and resolve or reduce traffic ambiguities. scrub in all # Translation: specify how addresses are to be mapped or redirected. # NAT rules # enabling NAT currently breaks policy based routing #nat on $ext_if from { $int_net, $vpn_net } to any - ($ext_if) #nat on tun0 from { 192.168.200.0/24 } to any - (re0) nat on re0 from { 192.168.200.0/24 } to any - (re0) table sshguard persist block in quick on re0 proto tcp from sshguard to any port ssh label ssh brute What am I missing?

Carp kernel module missing from FreeNAS?
Guys Im looking to have a failover for my FreeNAS systsem. Im folllowing this, example ( http://qq929962616.72pines.com/2012/03/configure-highly-available-storage-on-freenas/ ), but is doesnt look like the Carp module is available. If that is true, anyone know how I can go about adding / enabling carp on FreeNAS. Someone made a suggestion of: FreeNAS uses a standard FreeBSD Kernel, so you can simply download the module from the FreeBSD FTP site and it will work. You have to have the right version however.

You can skip swap altogether and use MFS (memory filesystem) like Brian mentioned for other high write partitions that don't need to be persistent (/tmp, /var/log). See the following article on the freebsd.org website about using solid state storage: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/solid-state/article.html Keep in mind though that Brian's setup was for slave nameservers that would be caching from another master. If your nameserver is acting as master, you'll be storing your records on flash since you need persistent storage, but I don't imagine those files will be write intensive.

Re: Device naming on scbus using isp
Brent Bloxam wrote: I'm wondering about how device names are assigned on scbus, specifically when using the isp driver. It seems to me that there's potential when an HBA has access to multiple LUNs that on boot the scbus will have entries in /dev scrambled compared to the previous run (thus messing up mounts). My experience so far has been that da0 will be assigned to the first target scanned, da1 to the second, etc. Is this generally something countered with device.hints? If a LUN were to go away, but a device hint pointing to the target:unit remained, would that cause any issues on boot? Thanks, Brent Thought I'd follow up with a bit of information I've determined about this, despite the lack of response from anyone on list. Maybe someone will find it useful :) I can only speak for this applying to use of isp(4) with scbus(4). Devices that operate in target mode appear to isp(4) and are assigned a target ID starting at 0. The order in which they appear depends on their fcid or what's known to isp(4) as PortID. This order is ascending, so the lower fcid takes precedence. isp(4) will then check the target to see if any LUNs are available to it. If not, the target disappears -- and here's the important thing to note -- but its target ID does not go away. Say you have 5 devices with the following fcids, 4 in target mode: 0x00 - target 0x01 - target 0x02 - another server with an HBA 0xF0 - target with LUN 0xF1 - target with LUN isp(4) is loaded at boot, and the following occurs: 0x00 appears, is assigned target 0, and disappears because there are no LUNs 0x01 appears, is assigned target 1, and disappears because there are no LUNs 0x02 appears and simply disappears because it is not a target 0xF0 appears, is assigned target 2, and is assigned to da0 0xF1 appears, is assigned target 3, and is assigned to da1 You can see because of this example that maintaining device names using /boot/device.hints is impossible if targets in the fabric change. If 0x00 were to disappear, the target IDs would change and render /boot/device.hints invalid, or worse, the wrong LUN could be given the wrong device name. Ideally, there would be a way to assign target IDs by fcid, but that does not exist presently. ___ 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

To enable this, the following steps are needed: * Add the following kernel configuration option and rebuild the kernel.

The maximum value is 16. optionsROUTETABLES=2 The procedure for rebuilding the FreeBSD kernel is described in the FreeBSD Handbook. This number can be modified on boot time. To do so, add the following to /boot/loader.conf and reboot the system: net.fibs=6 Note that net.fibs can only be modified _after_ the kernel has been compiled with the ROUTETABLES option.

Device naming on scbus using isp
I'm wondering about how device names are assigned on scbus, specifically when using the isp driver. It seems to me that there's potential when an HBA has access to multiple LUNs that on boot the scbus will have entries in /dev scrambled compared to the previous run (thus messing up mounts). My experience so far has been that da0 will be assigned to the first target scanned, da1 to the second, etc. Is this generally something countered with device.hints? If a LUN were to go away, but a device hint pointing to the target:unit remained, would that cause any issues on boot?

Re: ~/.ssh directory permissions
Chris Rees wrote: Although I think it's not a big deal, as long as your id_?sa has permissions 600 like mine, or even 400. Chris The man page for ssh(1) provides a lot of detail about the sensitivity of the various files related to ssh. To quote it regarding a few of them: ~/.ssh/ This directory is the default location for all user-specific configuration and authentication information. There is no general requirement to keep the entire contents of this directory secret, but the recommended permissions are read/write/execute for the user, and not accessible by others. So as you can see, 700 is recommended (but not necessary). ~/.ssh/identity ~/.ssh/id_dsa ~/.ssh/id_rsa Contains the private key for authentication. These files contain sensitive data and should be readable by the user but not accessible by others (read/write/execute). ssh will simply ignore a private key file if it is accessible by others. It is possible to specify a passphrase when generating the key which will be used to encrypt the sensitive part of this file using 3DES. However, identity, id_dsa and id_rsa _must_ be 700 at a maximum. It's best to follow the recommendations from the man page unless you have very specific reasons for needing more lax permissions on these files.

I have pop3, imap, I also have maildrop and sometimes, httpd, working around the busiest mount point. I have also started AUDIT, however all I can get are the top PIDs which issue read/write requests. Not the requests which take longer to perform (the busiest ones), or should I look for some special audit class or event other than open, read and write?

raid tool
Hiya New to BSD, Using FreeBSD 7. I need to build a test fileserver, but I want it to use Raid 5. Googling says I must use vinum. Looking in the ports I see its not available.

Re: raid tool
John Nielsen wrote: If you replace raid5 with redundancy and n-1 capacity then you could also look at geom_raid3, which is much simpler to configure than gvinum and also part of the base system. Additionally, FreeBSD 7.x has experimental support for ZFS (again in the base system and not in ports). That includes raidz, which is designed to have all of the good features of raid5 and none of the bad. I use it and it works well but you will need to do some reading and some manual tuning of your system. You'll also want a system with plenty of RAM and preferrably running FreeBSD-amd64 (vs FreeBSD-i386). If you want to look in to RAID1 or RAID1+0 see geom_mirror and geom_stripe, also in the base system. JN Hiya Thanks for this.

The temperature of the unencrypted drive is, however, ~41C, according to the same smartctl -a. I don't know. But I've noticed that when drives access GBDE-encrypted partitions (I didn't try with GELI yet), they are much louder (head seeking). It seems they seek more often on encrypted than non-encrypted partitions. Perhaps caching is turned off at some point up the chain? If that's the case, it is no wonder that encrypted partitions tend to result in higher drive temps (and faster drive wear). It was explained by another poster, I don't remember when or by whom, that GBDE writes sectors to disk in a pseudorandom fashion to make cryptanalysis more difficult. This would explain the seeking/noise on a GBDE disk. A question I have which is related to all of this: Does GELI write sectors in this pseudorandom fashion as well? And, if so is there a way to turn this off so that things are written contiguously? This could be useful for those wishing to encrypt things for most normal threats, such as your teenage neighbour breaking into your house and stealing your bitchin computer, while minimising the performance hit of pseudorandom sector writes.

RE: IP Aliasing
2) if an interface is configured with an alias address, then what address is shown on the traffic leaving this interface? So, for example, if I were to ping this machine on its primary address, I expect to get a response from the primary address of the interface. What happens if I ping an alias address, would I get a response from By default exiting traffic is using the primary address (the one defined with no keyword alias in the ifconfig). I think there is a way to choose the exiting IP. When a paket is responding, it use the same IP that was used in the query (else any firewall would be confused in the way). Just a note on this question/answer: You can configure a FreeBSD machine to use random IP addresses from the available pool of configured IP addresses when machines traverse the NATted firewall. If you choose this option, you may run into problems with people behind your firewall/router having difficulty connecting to web sites that use session authentication, as the IP address of the source machine will be constantly changing with each click of links on the destination web site.

I'm having trouble building apache2.2.6, it relates I feel to an inconsitent libexpat library under FreeBSD, COMBINED with a badly made and inconsistent apr port, and some libiconv incompatibilities. I've emailed ports maintainers, APR developers, the general apache mailing list, and gotten nothing. I'm posting this to the straight-off questions list because I feel my other attempts have failed. Can someone sanity check me? I'm well aware of how to ask intelligent questions, to document what I have and have not done, of explaining WHY I have or have not done those things. I'm going to send it here, in the hopes maybe someone else has encountered this or might spot something I'm missing. If ANYONE can shed some light here, I'd appreciate it and am willing to compensate in some small way, if I can. Here's what I sent to the maintainers of the above two ports: Subject: apr versus apr-db42, as well as some other issues: Hello, First and foremost: I assume you're both reasonably busy professionals. That said, I believe there's either a bug in the core operating system here, or a bug in the way some of the critical ports are built, and I cannot figure it out alone. It is enough of a problem that it has confused at least one apache committer. That said, if you'd like to be compensated in some small way for your time, please point me to your amazon wishlists, paypal accounts, et cetera, and I'll try to do the right thing. I am mailing you because you are the maintainers of the apache-2.2.6 and apr ports. If there are other people I should be mailing, please let me know. This is a post about building apache2.2 from scratch, not from ports -- however it raises several issues with port-installed tools that lead me to believe they may still be at fault. I apologize in advance for the length of this post, but having all the data is sometimes important. I believe it's reproducable but I don't have the spare machines to try on. First, the basics: 1) Is it possible to get some documentation in either the short or long description as to what the difference between apr and apr-db42 is? 2) Also, is it at all possible to get some kind of documentation for the apr-svn port (if it still exists). 3) My big problem: (I'm going to post everything from here down to the apache-users mailing list, as well). I just tried to build apache 2.2.6 from scratch. I, for various reasons of wanting to keep apache separate from other things, for example, to virtualize my apache users, prefer everything in a single dir -- so the ports route isn't for me. Because apr-db42 had been installed as part of a subversion requirement (not sure why), it caused my apache build to look in nonexistent places for libraries. %apr-1-config --apr-libtool /usr/local/build-1/libtool (the above path doesn't even exist) To fix this (and not break the svn port), I resorted to using --with-included-apr. The build THEN failed, claiming it could not find the installed expat libraries, in an error exactly like what this gentleman had: http://www.zulustips.com/2007/10/06/problems-compiling-apache-226-on-fre ebsd-62.html#more-54 And in fact, this apache developer had the same issue: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg18793.html (search the page for wtf) Like them, I had an installed expat, and had it listed in ldconfig -r (I also note there's a libexpat in /usr/src but don't know what it's there for). (I did not copy my errors because I thought I had found a solution, but it's the same error, I assure you). After that, I tried resorting to building apache with --with-expat=builtin I then got THIS error: /home/danm/httpd-2.2.6/srclib/apr/libtool --silent --mode=link gcc -g -O2 -o htpasswd htpasswd.lo -lm /home/danm/httpd-2.2.6/srclib/pcre/libpcre.la /home/danm/httpd-2.2.6/srclib/apr-util/libaprutil-1.la /home/danm/httpd-2.2.6/srclib/apr-util/xml/expat/lib/libexpat.la /home/danm/httpd-2.2.6/srclib/apr/libapr-1.la -lcrypt -lpthread /home/danm/httpd-2.2.6/srclib/apr-util/.libs/libaprutil-1.so: undefined reference to `libiconv_open' /home/danm/httpd-2.2.6/srclib/apr-util/.libs/libaprutil-1.so: undefined reference to `libiconv_close' /home/danm/httpd-2.2.6/srclib/apr-util/.libs/libaprutil-1.so: undefined reference to `libiconv' *** Error code 1 Stop in /home5/danm/httpd-2.2.6/support. *** Error code 1 Stop in /home5/danm/httpd

As far as the 120gig != 111gig discrepancy, it sounds like the drive manufacturer use 1 gig = 1,000,000,000 bytes instead of 1,073,741,824 bytes for their advertising. It looks better on the box.

gmirror/gconcat: mkdir causes system reboot
I am having a strange issue. I have a samba server (freebsd) that has been running fine for quite some time no errors to report. I replaced the system drives with fresh install of Freebsd 6.1 and updated to the current security branch. This was same version of freebsd previously on the server. All of the samba shares are on gmirror/gconcat hybrid mount point. '/dev/gconcat/DATA' mounted on /usr/local/smbshares. Now for some uknown reason creating a directories on this directory will immediately cause reboot!! From shell prompt I can SOMETIMES do the following othertimes it reboots: $ mkdir /usr/local/smbshares/testdir $ mkdir /usr/local/smbshares/test2 However creating directory beneath a directory in 'smbshares' ALLWAYS reboots: $ mkdir /usr/local/smbshares/media/pictures/testdir $ mkdir /usr/local/smbshares/media/dvds/testdir $ mkdir /usr/local/smbshares/media/dvds/all/testdir Reads seem to work fine. I can even create files so far with no problem. Files can be deleted without error. It is just when I try to make a directory that everything comes to a halt. The console error displayed before reboot is too quick to completley write but is something such as: mode 04277 inum=12258433 fs=/usr/local/smbshares panic: ffs_vallov: dup alloc snip ...

how to check for a compromised system
Hello, Im running several servers all ranging from FBSD 4.11 through the 5.4 release , patched of course. MY question is how do i check a system to see if has been compromised ? I have already run a current version chkrootkit found nothing. The symptom im seeing is yesterday all of a sudden the root user was removed from the /etc/passwd file Im not sure on how to track down what happened. I managed to recover from this. Are there any other tools that i can use to track down say who did what on the box? files that may have changed time dates... any help is greatly appreciated -- Brent ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Library Dependency: package built from port
Here is scenario: Machine1: destination server with multiple jails Machine2: build computer Machine2 tracks RELENG_6_1, builds any updates. /usr/src and /usr/obj copied from Machine2 to Machine 1. Updates are installed on Machine1. This works great. Now I want to build ports on Machine2 as packages then install the packages on Machine1. I am having problems with this scenario. Here is what Im doing. Example case, install /usr/ports/www/elinks 1. cd /usr/ports/www/elinks 2. use make all-depends-list to determine dependencies 3. make package-recursive 4. then I tar up the .tbz files 5. copy to Machine1; untar; then pkg_add the tarballs 6. rehash 7. www# elinks /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object libX11.so.6 not found, required by elinks www# ldd /usr/local/bin/elinks /usr/local/bin/elinks: libX11.so.6 = not found (0x0) libssl.so.4 = /usr/lib/libssl.so.4 (0x28115000) libcrypto.so.4 = /lib/libcrypto.so.4 (0x28143000) libz.so.3 = /lib/libz.so.3 (0x2823a000) libbz2.so.2 = /usr/lib/libbz2.so.2 (0x2824a000) libiconv.so.3 = /usr/local/lib/libiconv.so.3 (0x28259000) libc.so.6 = /lib/libc.so.6 (0x28346000) Questions: 1. Why is pkg_add not mentioning missing dependency? 2. What pkg/port needs install for this dependency? 3. How can I improve this process to eliminate future problems?

system freezes.
Hello, I've been having some freeze problems with my managed freebsd server that my host has been less than helpful with; I hope that this is the right place to ask the questions I have. os: freebsd 4.8-stable major applications: apache 1.3.29 + php 4.3.10 , mysql 4.1.18-log, dirvish, riff-backup Machine freezes with nothing written to the logs or console - if you happen to be logged in and running top when it starts to freeze your top session will run completely normally and without lag (spacebar refreshes display, you can resort on size or cpu, etc), but no other processes can start - typing a command into another open shell will not start that program. Until it fully freezes it will echo characters back in the shell - and top will continue to run as normal. Top always shows a load of 0.1, there's always 5MB to 50MB of ram free. All of the hardware has been replaced (motherboard, cpu, ram, power supply, hard drive) I can't make it freeze on demand by replaying the web hits or database queries that occurred before the crash. I am able to make it freeze on demand by slurping down a particular dirvish vault with rsync. The freeze symptoms are the same as the random freeze symptoms (top responds normally, new processes can't start) The random freezes occur whether or not I'm running dirvish on a schedule. The rsync freezing I can work around if needed, the random freezes I cannot. Does anybody have any suggestions on how I might track down the problem? thanks, Brent ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Linksys EG1032 -- couldn't map ports/memory
So from what I gather, rev=0x10 indicates the use of the realteak chipset and the 6.0 release kernel does not recognize this variant and must be patched to load the correct driver re. I have not manually done source patches and am kind of adverse to using blind patches from mailing lists. Is the only other solution to update to current? thanks.

ethernet Interface haywire ???
Has anyone run into this scenario where a BSD Box (RELENG_5_4) takes down the whole subnet for only FreeBSD boxes. Here’s the scenario: One of my web servers goes into a crazy state which kills all traffic on the network for only FreeBSD boxes. Linux boxes can talk to other linux boxes, but FreeBSD boxes are dead. You can ping a FreeBSD box (from linux) but services such as SSH go half-way and never completely connect. Other services such as http don’t work either. Rebooting that offending box fixes the problem. I’ve seen this once it a great moon; however, it recently happened two days in a row. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I have other RELENG_5_4 and RELENG_6_0 boxes that don’t seem to be the culprit, as well as an identical hardware box running RELENG_6_0. Thanks. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: ethernet Interface haywire ???
Thanks--the server has em (intel gigabit) nics. Have you seen this on any specific version of FreeBSD and *hopefully* not on others (e.g. RELENG_6_0)?

Apache 2.0.55_2 mod_dav not working
Hello, After upgrading apache from 2.0.54 to the latest version, 2.0.55_2, WebDAV has stopped working. The mod_dav and mod_dav_fs modules load OK, but the lock file that is specified in the DavLockDB directive does not get created, and WebDAV clients cannot connect. The /server-info page provided by mod_info shows that the DAV modules are active: Module Name: mod_dav.c Content handlers: yes Configuration Phase Participation: Create Directory Config, Merge Directory Configs, Create Server Config, Merge Server Configs Request Phase Participation: Fixups Module Directives: DAV - specify the DAV provider for a directory or location DAVMinTimeout - specify minimum allowed timeout DAVDepthInfinity - allow Depth infinity PROPFIND requests Current Configuration: Location /davtest DAV on /Location Module Name: mod_dav_fs.c Content handlers: none Configuration Phase Participation: Create Server Config, Merge Server Configs Request Phase Participation: none Module Directives: DAVLockDB - specify a lock database Current Configuration: DAVLockDB /tmp/DAVLock The Location container that I set up is simplified for testing purposes. The only indicator that something is wrong on the server side is that no files get created in /tmp, despite the DAVLockDB directive. I have LogLevel set to debug, and it doesn't show any errors. WebDAV was working fine before the upgrade to 2.0.55. Does anyone have any ideas as to what might be going wrong?
