My guess: try a make rmconfig in the mod_php4 directory. By default PHP wants to give you MySQL support.

RAID - can a mirrored disk be used on a non-RAID controller?
I had a hard disk failure this weekend. I had been considering RAID mirroring but this has brought the issue forward. My plan is to create a box with two drives and use a RAID card to mirror them. Should the RAID card die, can I move a drive to another box with a standard IDE controller and run the system from there? In short, I'm asking, does the RAID controller create a drive image which cannot be used by an IDE controller? -- Dan Langille : http://www.langille.org/ BSDCan - http://www.bsdcan.org/ ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I couldn't determine that from the FAQ. Does it need any hardware? How does it monitor the serial console? Do you connect two boxes together via their serial ports? Box A reports on Box B, and vice versa? Or does it just monitor the serial console and report back to a central server? > I assumed here that usually you have more than one machine per physical > location; otherwise, I'd set up remote logging, preferrably to two different > machines via two different interfaces, but such ideal network design is > *rarely* reqchable ;-) I have one location which has only one box. That box and the bandwidth is kindly donated by BCHosting.com, and hosts freebsddiary.org, freshports.org, etc. It does about 45GB a month (at last check). I'd like to have a serial console there. But if it could the console remotely, that would be good.

Then have commands in script to kill fetchmail and user > ppp, and start Mutt to read mail from postfix. Here is what I set up this morning. My mum uses only email, and doesn't surf the web. So dial on demand wasn't something I wanted to try. So I took this approach: pkg_add -r postfix pkg_add -r sudo alter /usr/local/etc/postfix/main.cf to have: relayhost = smtp.myisp.com alter /etc/ppp/ppp.conf to have this within the myisp section: set server /var/run/istop "" 0177 create a dial script for mum: run visudo to add this: mum ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/local/sbin/postfix flush mum ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/ppp -quiet -background myisp mum ALL = NOPASSWD: /bin/kill -TERM `cat /var/run/tun1.pid` mum ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/pppctl /var/run/myisp quit all Create a "dial" script: #!/bin/sh sudo /usr/sbin/ppp -quiet -background myisp sudo /usr/local/sbin/postfix flush fetchmail sudo /usr/sbin/pppctl /var/run/myisp quit all Create ~/.fetchmailrc: poll 127.0.0.1 port 12346 with proto apop: preconnect "ssh -f -L 12346:my.mail.example.org:110 [EMAIL PROTECTED] sleep 40 /dev/null" password secret; In this case, all of mum's email goes to my mail server, and sits there waiting for her to pop it off. This is done via fetchmail. So after Mum types her email and "sends" it, she exits pine, then issues the "dial" command. I'm going to add some error checking to the above "dial" script. Especially to check that ppp connects. Any suggestions? FWIW: she's not yet using this as we're waiting for her dial-up account to be set up but I've tested it using her DSL provider's dial up line. -- Dan Langille : http://www.langille.org/ ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
configuring dial-up for extreme novices (i.e. Mom).
Hi folks, My mom has been using FreeBSD via DSL for some time. I'm about to move her to dial up. I'm going to use userland ppp and postfix. My initial untested idea is to create a script for her which will: - ppp --dial HerISP, - wait for the connection to come up - then flush the mail queue - run fetchmail to grab anything waiting - kill the connection Anyone already done this? Any suggestions? I originally asked this back in March, but now the time has come to actually do the work.

FreeBSD for Mom
My mom uses FreeBSD. More precisely, she uses Pine to send/receive email. At present, she has a DSL connection. She's soon to change to a dial up account. What I'm planning to do is provide her with a shell script which will send/receive email for her. She'll run it to check for mail and when she's done composing her outgoing mail. My initial untested idea is: - ppp --dial HerISP, - wait for the connection to come up - then flush the mail queue - run fetchmail to grab anything waiting - kill the connection Someone must have already done something similar.

syslogd stops logging
I have observed this behaviour today and yesterday. For some reason, syslogd stops logging. Here's what I'm seeing: [dan@undef:~/tmp] $ tail /var/log/messages Jan 22 00:00:00 undef newsyslog[50185]: logfile turned over [dan@undef:~/tmp] $ logger hi [dan@undef:~/tmp] $ tail /var/log/messages Jan 22 00:00:00 undef newsyslog[50185]: logfile turned over [dan@undef:~/tmp] $ ps auwx | grep syslogd root 4837 0.0 0.0 9400 ?? IWs - 0:00.00 /usr/sbin/syslogd -s Yesteryday, killing and restarting syslogd solved the issue. But I'd rather investigate this before I do that today. Ideas? thanks -- Dan Langille : http://www.langille.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message

The article is about Postfix, but sendmail.cf is for Sendmail. I don't think I will be writing about Sendmail anytime soon because I don't use it for my mail servers.
