Example uses of bsnmp-ucd?
Hello, I have discovered that bsnmp-ucd provides the ability to monitor FreeBSD by gathering memory, load average, cpu usage and other system statistics.

RE: living with freebsd
Hello! i'd like to know how people live with freebsd. do you use only ports or only packages or a mixture? Some uses just ports...while others use packages only if they exist in the first place or they cross compiled. Hell, a lot of people use both ports and packages. The reasons vary and it is not restrictive to pick either one. do you upgrade from version to version using freebsd tools or do it manually? Manually is the traditional way. The freebsd tools (if you meant the binary upgrade method) is just a new way. Few are switching over as the time progresses. There are some in the production environment that prefer using binary upgrades as it will provide lower downtimes. do you have a different approach regarding the above depending on whether it is for a server or a desktop? Yes, avoid GUI stuff when using server or vice verse. That's just one example out of millions of examples. the handbook tells you what you can do, but i'd like to know what is actually done and why. The way it should work: You find out what you want your FreeBSD computer to do, you look into the available documentations on how to do it. Not the other way around.

RE: Question on Hardware support
Hello fella, I am trying to find the hardware support list for the releases and have been unsuccessful. Any ideas where to look for this? My reason is that I have a new computer with the ASUS motherboard in an Intel Core2 Duo configuration. This board has an ATTANSIC Technology Corp. L1 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter on it which apparently is fairly new and may not be supported. I have found with Linux that the Debian distros, the Gentoo distros and the SUSE distros all support this (Ubuntu, Mepis, Open SUSE, Sabayon, OpenGEU) while the Slackware ones will in the next release. I would like to use the BSD release if it can support this ethernet adapter but the older PC-BSD did not. Is there a release that does include this ethernet device? I have been looking for something that lists the hardware supported and I keep running into something that says check the release to see the hardware support info but so far all I find is that notice. I don't find the hardware support list anywhere. You can see here for the hardware release notes: http://www.freebsd.org/releases/7.0R/relnotes.html However, your NIC is not included but there is development pending it in freebsd-current@ The direct link is to: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2008-March/084174.htm l Chris Thanks.

RE: dedicated server specs / 7.0-Release
hello, 2008/3/18, Christian Zachariasen [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Depending on what you're doing you might clarify what you are planning on doing with the disks. Are you running them in any form of RAID? In a some cases it might be smarter to go for better drives (made for operating 24/7). That being said, I've often used shitty drives myself on servers that have been up for ages at a time. Right! It will be used for hosting a couple of domains and quite extensive email service. I was planning to use the second HD to replicate data in case of emergency. What would you advise instead or is there a way to make the two drives operate in RAID? I do not know much abaout RAIDs I am afraid. Without a hardware RAID controller card, you can run a software RAID 1 array. That is mirroring capabilities. There is a howto in the FreeBSD handbook on setting up the RAIDs based on the FreeBSD's built in features. I would strongly suggest that you add more disks for more IO resources to be available if you are going to run a medium sized mail server. SAS disks will be way much better. Those extra disks (or faster ones) and two more GB of RAM will be more useful if you are going to use a type of SQL database for your hosts websites. Better safe than to be overloaded.

RE: PHP5 Gzip support
Hello Robert: Can someone please explain how I install gzip support into a running version of PHP5 ? gzip is enabled by default for encoding. Did you mean bzip? When you are installing php5 extensions on FreeBSD systems from the ports tree, normally you would install the the lang/php5-extensions port. You will be prompted with a config menu. In your situation, you can choose bzip and get that installed. If you want to add any other extensions after doing the install, you can use make config to bring that menu back up and then do the reinstall. Chris - Yahoo!

You should do it the other way around. That way if the new kernel doesn't boot you aren't stuck with an out of sync userland which may not play nicely with your old kernel. Also, depending on the changes booting an old kernel with a new userland may (and has) result in your system not booting at all. The proper sequence is: # make buildworld # make buildkernel # make installkernel # reboot # mergemaster -p # make installworld # mergemaster # reboot I prefer to do [build|install]world prior to building the kernel with the new installed tools. Even with an outsynced system, the most common tools to be affected are ps and top. Even when a kernel fails to boot all the way through, you can still rebuild a new kernel after booting with the old kernel. Having the new system tools will not hurt. The OP's primary goal was to discuss about if it was possible to upgrade 5.x to 6.x remotely via ssh. I provided that it was possible and what my method is.

Re: script for adding a samba-user

It's difficult to help since you didn't provide a description of the problem beyond not working. Taking a guess, I'd say that your problem is related to your use of the -s option to adduser. That option specifies the shell for the user you are trying to add. Even if you have a shell called scponly you would need to include the full path to that shell. I also suspect not using -a for smbpasswd to add a new user. Someone needs to read up on the manpages for those commands.

Re: Dropped fragment GRE

We run Microsoft RDP over PPTP through the firewall. After upgrading to FreeBSD 5.3, we realised that the RDP connections never get initiated. When I did a tcpdump on the internal and external interfaces of the FW, I realised that there were fragmented GRE packets arriving at the FW, but however, these packets do not leave the FW. I also observed the SEQ no. in the GRE packets ingress/egress, and there were missing GRE packets on the egress. My deduction was that ipfw was dropping these fragmented GRE packets, but however, these events were shown on syslog. How do I make ipfw log dropped/silently rejected packets? How to I prevent ipfw from dropping these packets? GRE would need a rule. ipfw add allow gre from any to any To turn off your logging abilities, don't use log or logmount in your rule bodies.

Re: Traffic Shapping (IPFW + DUMMYNET) Question
On Thu, 2005-04-14 at 09:53 -0400, Timothy Radigan wrote: Hi all, I'm new to the entire idea of traffic shaping and I came up with some rules for my BSD firewall/router/VoIP gateway and I just wanted to make sure that what I am trying to accomplish is actually going to happen with these rules in place. Currently, my broadband connection is a 4Mb down and 384Mb up pipe. My VoIP service requires 90Kb up and down. I have 3 separate internal networks at my house. I have my wired 100Mb switched LAN (192.168.15.0/24), I have my IPSec enabled Wireless LAN (192.168.20.0/24), and I have my VoIP LAN (192.168.10.0/30). What I want to do with these traffic shaping rules, is dedicate 100Kb up and down to the VoIP LAN, and then I want to have equally shared bandwidth (the remaining speeds of my broadband connection) for the wired and wireless LANs. Here are the rules I have come up with so far: Can you post your ifconfig output of your BSD box?

Re: more than one IP address in a jail (?)
Either on a webpage somewhere, once, or in here in the list, at one time, I remember seeing some patches that allowed a jail to have more than one IP address. I have been googling all day (not really, but a good amount of time at least) and can't seem to find it again. Anyone have any pointers?

Re: Text parsing?
Hello group, For what purposes will I find I need to use all these tools you write about? I'm talking about awk, ed, ex, etc. I haven't found the need to do so, yet, but I'd like to possibly learn this stuff before I really do need it. -- Eric F Crist AdTech Integrated Systems, Inc (612) 998-3588 Many of us all learn from several books, online articles, and other forms of documentations. For you, perhaps, you should have your own system with an UNIX/Linux operating system to experiment with. If you are going to mess with FreeBSD, you can use http://www.freebsd.org/handbook (a shortcut link to the famed handbook). That would help you to get started into the FreeBSD basics. For your listed commands, the learning documents can be found at http://www.google.com with certain words such as replace sed to discover what the proper usage of sed to replace strings. Also, on your UNIX/Linux systems, you should have manpages to help you. You could simply type in man sed to learn what you could do with sed. Best place to learn more about manpages is by typing in man man :) .::. Chris Haulmark chaulmark -at- idefense.com System Administrator iDefense, Inc.
