if_bridge and ipfw

2007-07-03 Thread Dave McCammon
I can't seem to grasp why this is working differently.
FreeBSD 6.2 using ipfw + if_bridge

LAN -- em1(if_bridge + ipfw)em0 -- internet

so I am at 10.10.16.6 and try to ping say www.yahoo.com

in ruleset:
1100 allow icmp from any to 10.10.16.0/27{1-10,13,14,19,22,23} icmptypes 
0,3,11,12,13,14
2100 allow ip from 10.10.16.0/27 to any in via em1

gets dropped by following rule as shown in logs:

4700 deny log ip from any to any

Log entry: ipfw: 4700 Deny ICMP:8.0 10.10.16.6 69.147.114.210 out via em0

If I add this rule all works great:

2101 allow icmp from 10.10.16.6 to any icmptypes 8

My confusion is shouldn't the icmp be allowed in rule 2100? Or is it with 
if_bridge I have to make a rule for
both interfaces.


The rule 2100 allow ip from 10.10.16.0/27 to any in via em1 allowed the icmp 
passage,
out of em0 through the bridge in 6.2 using bridge(4).

This entire ruleset is the same with if_bridge as has been working with 
bridge(4).
I just moved to if_bridge since the bridge(4) is obsolete.

Thanks for your help.

It looks like it can be disable by typeing

Also, google middlemouse.contentloadurl for what it

ipfw and if_bridge

2006-02-09 Thread Dave McCammon
Hello all.

I had my firewall crash using releng_6(sata
corruption/failure of some sort) and during rebuild I
decided to move to ipfw + if_bridge instead of using
ipfw + bridge(4) since bridge(4) is becoming obsolete.

Anyway, i had some problems getting ruleset to work.
I've cut ruleset down to pertinent parts to show what
I am seeing.

I have a system with 2 cards, em0 and em1, being used
as a filtering bridge. em0 faces router and em1 faces
internal lan.
network = 10.1.1.0/24
em0 address =  (has none)
em1 address  = 10.1.1.17
some internal lan machine = 10.1.1.12

--begin ruleset-
-f flush
add 100 pass layer2 mac-type arp
add 200 check state
add 300 deny log tcp from any to any established in
via em0
add 400 allow icmp from any to 10.1.1.0/24 icmptypes
0,3,11,12,13,14
add 500 pass tcp from 10.1.1.17 to any setup
keep-state
add 600 pass udp from 10.1.1.17 to any keep-state
add 700 pass ip from 10.1.1.17  to any
add 800 deny log ip from 10.1.1.0/24 to any in via em0
add 900 pass tcp from 10.1.1.0/24 to any in via em1
setup keep-state
add 1000 pass udp from 10.1.1.0/24 to any in via em1
keep-state
add 1100 pass ip from 10.1.1.0/24 to any in via em1
add 1200 deny log ip from any to any

end ruleset-

Sysctl variables:
net.link.bridge.pfil_member=1
net.link.bridge.ipfw=1

rc.conf entries:
ifconfig_em1=inet 10.1.1.17 netmask 255.255.255.0
cloned_interfaces=bridge0
ifconfig_bridge0=addm em0 addm em1 up
firewall_enable=YES
firewall_type=/etc/firewall/ipfw.conf

With bridge(4) I could ping from inside
machine(10.1.1.12) to router or any other out-of-lan
address.
After if_bridge i would get in logs after same ping
attempt:
1200 Deny ICMP:8.0 10.1.1.12 to (router ip address)
out via em0
TCP outbound connections work.
After changing rulesets from in via to recv, icmp
now works.
(ex: add 1100 pass ip from 10.1.1.0/24 to any recv
em1)

This blocking of the icmp packet out via em0 even
though the ruleset says to allow it because it came in
via em1 doesn't seem to be correct behavior to me. The
tcp/udp rulesets work even though there is
intermittant pop-ups in the logs saying the
connections were blocked out via em0. 
Any enlightenment on this is appreciated.

  I'm having problems setting up IPFW to

  The puzzling part is that I am able to use the

  Following is what I hope are the pertinent lines
 from my /etc/ipfw.rules

 via $pif setup 
  keep-state
  $cmd 00299 deny log all from me to any out via

  $cmd 00332 deny log tcp from any to me
 established in via $pif
 
  Next is an excerpt from the /var/log/security
 file:
 
  Jul 17 21:49:58 JimsP1G /kernel: ipfw: 299 Deny

  192.168.1.110:4566 in via vr0
 
  Now my questions.  First, why isn't rule 225
 allowing all the packets 
  out
  to the Onion router?  It seems to me that ipfw
 should allow all packets
  in the port range 9001-9033 out or none.
 
 
  Rule 225 will only match packets used to setup the
 tcp session, once 
  it's established you need another rule that will
 allow the established 
  session to function.
 
  Rule 299 is denying everything from leaving your
 machine except for 
  the packets allowed by rule 225.
 
 
 It appears that I didn't include enough of the
 ipfw.rules file.  
 Following is another abstract:
 

#
 # Allow the packet through if it has previous been
 added to the
 # the dynamic rules table by a allow keep-state
 statement.

#
 $cmd 00015 check-state
 
 It's my understanding that this rule allows through
 any returning
 packets that match the dynamic rule established by
 Rule 225.
 
 
  Next, the two inbound packets should be returning
 in response to an 
  outbound packet.  Why are they being dropped? 
 Are they exceeding some
  timeout?
 
 
  Rule 332 is denying all established traffic from
 entering your 
  machine.  So, while rule 225 allows you to
 establish a tcp session 
  with another system on ports 9001-9033, once the
 session is 
  established, rule 225 no longer applies and rule
 332 is then throwing 
  all those packets away.

 Part of my problem is that I don't understand the
 protocols being used 
 by the Onion routers.  It
 appears that Tor (the application on my machine that
 sets up the 
 communication with the
 Onion routers) begins to communicate with the Onion
 routers as soon as 
 it starts.  This
 communication continues as long as the FBSD machine
 is alive. Really 
 shook me up
 when I first started using Tor and Privoxy.  I
 thought someone was 
 hacking my machine :-)
 
 The really puzzling thing about this situation is
 that at least some of 
 the messages concerning
 the Onion protocol are getting through.  I can ask
 for www.google.com 
 and sometimes it
 resolves to Google in Europe, sometimes to Google in
 Asia, and sometines 
 to Google here
 in the US.  Ipfw appears to be only dropping some of
 the packets.
 
 Perhaps I should set up another machine to sniff the
 packets that 
 occur.  Maybe that would
 give me an idea of what is happening with the Onion
 protocol.
 
 In any event, thanks for your input to my problem,
 and if you have any 
 other ideas I would
 appreciate them very much.  I've been chewing on
 this problem the better 
 part of a week.
 
 Thanks,
 
 Jim

check the output of 
#ipfw show
and make sure the check-state line is there.

Your config says-
$cmd 00015 check-state

and I think..(at least on a 5.4 machine)
it should say 

$cmd 00015 add check-state

I haven't caught all of this thread but I'll share
what I do.
I use rsync to sync file to a server for backup.
6 FreeBSD and one Win2K which have been set up to
rsync at different times in the morning hours.
On the Win2k machine, I have cygwin running that I use
to rsync the data over every night. I think there is
rsync for windows but I liked the command line
capabilities that cygwin gives me.
All use ssh in the rsync.

So after the night rsync's, I'll have a copy of files
on the backup server's harddrive and will also have a
copy on tape. Tape runs in morning after all servers
have sync'd.

 Any of this communcation/transfer encrypted or
 compressed? What type
 of backup would you compare your solution to --
 incremental,
 differential, full, etc.?
 

rsync in FreeBSD use ssh as default transport.
rsync in cygwin is made to use ssh with command line
option.

Type of backup---read the man page for rsync--
It basically sync's a copy of whatever you tell it to
to someplace that you tell it to. Whole file systems
or just one file. Then the next time rsync runs, it
copies the files that have changed since the last
rsync. This is my explanation...please read the man
page for more. Rsync is located in the ports.

 How many GB's you transfer?
Total transfered a night..I don't know. It depends on
what is on the machine. A few K on one machine, 70-90M
per file on another, etc... All machines are on one
LAN so no transfers over T1 yet.
All-in-All there is 13G that is stored on the backup
server from the 7 servers but not all 13G's are
transfered every night.

 
  On the Win2k machine, I have cygwin running that I

 How do you restore files?
 
rsync them back or scp. I use dump on the tape backup
so if an archived file(s)is needed it is restored to a
different location then copied to the server where it
is needed.

 11017 allow tcp from any to any 935
 12000 deny tcp from 209.188.66.29 to any
 
I may be assuming alot here with the info you have
given but

Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm assuming 209.188.66.29
is your machine and it has the services running and,
your ipfw setup in your kernel has 
IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT.
With that setup, OE will work without rule 12000
because the client-to-server packets match rule 10700
and server-to-client will match the last rule (65535
in #ipfw show).
With rule 12000 inserted, client-to-server packets
match rule 10700 but server-to-client get blocked by
12000.

You may try adding:
01050 allow tcp from any to any established
and add to the end of the rest of the allow rules
setup example:
01000 allow tcp from any to me 10060 setup

or try rewriting your rules to use dynamic rules.
example:
01050 check-state
01000 allow tcp from any to me 10060 setup keep-state
01040 allow tcp from any to me 22 setup keep-state
10100 allow tcp from any to me 80 setup keep-state
10200 allow tcp from any to me 10080 setup keep-state
.
(last rule)
5 deny ip from any to any

Now, if your setup doesn't match what I outlined
above, please send your output of (as root) #ipfw show
. With this output we can better help you adjust your
ruleset.
You may want to also include your /etc/rc.conf file
and what firewall options your have in your kernel
config.

 I tried using tcpdump to track the activity when I
 have all ports
 open and use OE, but it seems to use a different
 port each time:
 ports like 2843 and other non-allocated port
 numbers.
 
 
The client(OE) will use a non-privileged port to
connect to the POP3(I assume this is what you want)
server port 110. 
To be clearer, are you attempting to block everything
except 80,110,25, and a few others _in_ or _out_?
If you are allowing the client to connect,let's say
out, to the pop server, are you allowing the return
traffic?
Example:(arrows for traffic flow)
Client request
client(2843)-ipfw allow-pop3(110)
Server reply
client(2843)-ipfw established-pop3(110)

Simple rule example
allow tcp from any to me established
allow tcp from me to (server) 110 setup
deny ip from any to any

This is similar to the example in the ipfw man page.


Simple rule using dynamic rules

check-state
allow tcp from me to (server) 110 setup keep-state
deny ip from any to any

When me makes a setup connection to pop server it
creates a dynamic rule for return traffic. After
looking at the man page again, this rule is like the
example except i didn't use the established rule.

Read through the examples in the man page and look at
key words like established, keep-state, setup,
check-state.

Re: Too many dynamic rules, sorry

2004-09-17 Thread Dave McCammon


 You'll generally need to keep state on UDP when you
 play online games.
 
 If you're smart, you don't allow arbitrary UDP
 packets from the outside
 world into your network, but if you're playing
 Unreal or something, then
 all communication is via UDP, and you won't be able
 to play.
 
 The best solution is to allow all UDP traffic to
 _leave_, while keeping
 state.  the keep-state remembers the ip/port
 information on the outgoing
 packets, and thus allows return packets to get back
 in (by matching the
 ip/port pair).
 
 Now, when you know the port, it doesn't really make
 sense to use
 keep-state, and all you're really doing is spamming
 your state tables.
 
 If you look in the /etc/rc.firewall that ships with
 FreeBSD, you'll see
 these rules (designed to handle running a DNS
 server):
 # Allow access to our DNS
 ${fwcmd} add pass tcp from any to ${oip} 53
 setup
 ${fwcmd} add pass udp from any to ${oip} 53
 ${fwcmd} add pass udp from ${oip} 53 to any
 
 Granted, it's three rules instead of 1, but it does
 not use your state
 tables unnecessarily (sp?)
 
Unless you have above the #Allow access to our DNS
rules-

${fwcmd} add pass udp from ${oip} to any keep-state
 
to allow all UDP to leave.
the first incoming packet to port 53 will match the
stateless rule 
${fwcmd} add pass udp from any to ${oip} 53

but the reply will create a dynamic rule
because first match is 

${fwcmd} add pass udp from ${oip} to any keep-state

Look at your dynamic table, if you are getting DoS'd,

that suits your needs.

Or, rewrite your rules removing the keep-state options.

 play online games.
 
 If you're smart, you don't allow arbitrary UDP
 packets from the outside
 world into your network, but if you're playing
 Unreal or something, then
 all communication is via UDP, and you won't be
 able
 to play.
 
 The best solution is to allow all UDP traffic to
 _leave_, while keeping
 state.  the keep-state remembers the ip/port
 information on the outgoing
 packets, and thus allows return packets to get
 back
 in (by matching the
 ip/port pair).
 
 Now, when you know the port, it doesn't really
 make
 sense to use
 keep-state, and all you're really doing is
 spamming
 your state tables.
 
 If you look in the /etc/rc.firewall that ships
 with
 FreeBSD, you'll see
 these rules (designed to handle running a DNS
 server):
 # Allow access to our DNS
 ${fwcmd} add pass tcp from any to ${oip}
 53
 setup
 ${fwcmd} add pass udp from any to ${oip}
 53
 ${fwcmd} add pass udp from ${oip} 53 to
 any
 
 Granted, it's three rules instead of 1, but it
 does
 not use your state
 tables unnecessarily (sp?)
 
 HTH.
 
 
  
  
  Sorry, wasn't done with last message.
  
  Look at your dynamic table, if you are getting
 DoS'd,
  try using the limit option instead of keep-state
 or
  tweak the net.inet.ip.fw.dyn_(*)_lifetime to a
 level
  that suits your needs.
  
  Or, rewrite your rules removing the keep-state
 options.

 I think I follow you. I am going to have to play
 around with the
 DNS rules supplied with rc.firewall to see if I can
 get them to
 work. Just putting them in as given, my machines
 inside the firewall
 can not do nslookup's.
 
 I am a little afraid to play with the
 net.inet.ip.fw.dyn_(*)_lifetime
 level, I have seen a number of posting where people
 increase the value,
 mine is set to 300 (default). I did remove
 keep-state from all my rules
 excpet the gre rule. I also set the
 net.inet.ip.fw.dyn_max to 8192 which
 helps.
 
 Maybe I need a good book on the subject. Any
 suggestions?
 
 Norm Vilmer

What you may you may want to do is lower the 
net.inet.ip.fw.dyn_ack_lifetime. 
This will help the dynamic rules to be cleared faster
on connections that don't get completed with the FIN
or RST.
Besides, I believe the UDP dynamic rules are
controlled by net.inet.ip.fw.dyn_udp_lifetime.
On my bridging-firewall, it is set to 10 but in the
man page for ipfw it shows default as 5 (unless the 5
is just an example not the default).

Here is some links that I have bookmarked

Re: Cardbus not working for 3com 656B netcard

 Hello everyone,
   back in the days of 5.1.xxx my 3com CFM656B
 (That's not the exact model
 number sorry but it's in my machine at home at the

 beautifully. I had changed to the 5.1 branch of
 FreeBSD because finally I
 could use something other than a ratty Linksys
 10mbps pccard in my laptop.
   I cvsup'd religeously and the world built well
 (usually) and the kernels
 kernelled and I was a righteous FreeBSD guru. But
 then.. 5.2.1 hit and my
 3com netcard no longer functioned. I searched high
 and low for fixes,
 answers cvsup every chance I had and never once did
 the card work again.
   Everything shows normal in the dmesg but the bus
 never resets and the system
 can't get the station address. I checked interrupts
 and the card bus is
 there sharing life with the pccard interface at irq
 10.
   If I'm using 5.1 of the OS (which I reinstalled
 the other day because i'm
 trying to get my new Linksys wifi card running) the
 3com works and data
 flows at a reasonable rate.
   Does anyone know of a fix for the cardbus since
 that's the only thing I can
 find that seems like it's out of wack? same hardware
 works fine with 5.1 but
 5.2 is toiletville.
   My 10mbps linksys card still works but it is a 16
 bit pccard and nothing and
 no cards that I have that are 32bit cardbus work at
 all.
   This is on a IBM Iseries thinkpad 1141. It's been
 my main work horse since I
 bought it in 2000.
   Please help make a ratty old laptop useful again.
 I'll do what I can to
 provide information to get this problem fixed. Since
 I see current is now
 trying to breath life into FreeBSD-6.0 and I would
 hate to see this problem
 continue.
   Thank you in advance for everything.

Try this patch ?

I have a 3com575B that quit working after going to 5.3

Here is another that may help.

bridging on 5.3 beta not working

2004-08-26 Thread Dave McCammon
Maybe I should post this to the CURRENT mail list or
maybe STABLE(even though releng_5 isn't stable yet)
but I wanted to try here first.

I can't seem to get bridging working on a new install
of 5.3 beta. I set up the system correctly as far as I
can tell(see info below). I gave one nic(em0) an ip
and can reach other machines(using ssh as the test).
If I move the ethernet cable from em0 to em1 I can't
get out to any machines. Perhaps this is not a valid
test (seems it should be). 
I must also mention that I did try both ports plugged
in(between two switches) but no traffic was getting
through.

below is the output of `sysctl net.link.ether.bridge'

net.link.ether.bridge.version: 031224

I can send the entire kernel config if needed.

ipfw MAC question

2004-04-21 Thread Dave McCammon
FreeBSD bridge/ipfw
fxp0-external
fxp1-internal
I allow all from internal network in fxp1

I just added a logging statement- 
  ipfw add log deny ip from any to any in via fxp1
before there was the default-
  deny ip from any to any
and now I am seeing this in my logs-
  Deny MAC in via fxp1

What could this be? Everything is running fine so this
seems to be harmless.

kernel panic with netware stuff in 5.2.1-RC

2004-02-04 Thread Dave McCammon
I'm getting a kernel panic when trying to mount a 
nwfs file system or when trying to do a ncplist s. 

The system also panics on shutdown,
referencing IPXrouted in the panic.

Instruction pointer is c0516a06 and 
nm turns up nothing with
nm -n /boot/kernel/kernel|grep c0516a06.

With
nm -n /boot/kernel/kernel| grep c0516a0,
nm returns
c0516a00 T turnstile_head

and with grep c0516a, I get
c0516a00 T turnstile_head
c0516a10 T turnstile_empty
c0516a30 T read
c0516ac0 T pread

Getting this on a 5.2.1-RC cvsuped yesterday.

Using a basic kernel with options ipx added.
Config at bottom.

In loader.conf I have--
if_ef_load=yes
nwfs_load=yes
ncp_load=yes

and 

in /etc/rc.conf

ipxrouted_enable=yes 
ifconfig_rl0f1_ipx=ipx 0x71ad01b


Everything worked fine until I cvsupped from 5.2 to
5.2.1RC.

Any help is appreciated.

 I am mounting nwfs on freebsd versions 4.5 to 4.8.
 The details

 I think I originally only found the way through a
 query to this mailing list.
 
 At least for FBSD 4.x it is necessary to generate
 additional pseudo
 interfaces derived from the fxp0 (or whatever your
 base interface is)
 interface each dedicated to a particular IPX
 variant.
 
 This is done with the pseudo-device ef in the kernel
 configuration
 or you should be able to use the loadable module
 if_ef.ko.
 
 Take a look at the man page ef(4).
 
 Now configure with

 if you are not sure you should be able to fire up
 all 4 variants
 
 I have actually included this in the kernel

 options IPX #IPX/SPX
 communications protocols
 options NCP #NetWare
 Core protocol
 pseudo-device   ef  # Multiple
 ethernet frames support
 options ETHER_II# enable
 Ethernet_II frame
 options ETHER_8023  # enable
 Ethernet_802.3 (Novell) frame
 options ETHER_8022  # enable
 Ethernet_802.2 frame
 options ETHER_SNAP
 
 and then in rc.conf you could use :
  ifconfig_fxp0f2_ipx=ipx 0x00010010

 Maximum number of dynamic rules.  When

Default on my FBSD 4.9 box with (options IPFW2 in

It may be helpful to tweak this setting or adjust the

RE: IPFW 'keep state' 'limit'

--- fbsd_user [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
 The FBSD 5.2 man IPFW does not say anything
 different that the 4.9

 Are you saying the man doc in 5.2 is wrong?
 
 5.2 is using the ipfw2 code for IPFIREWALL I
 believe.
 
 Documenting the fact that 'limit' performs the same
 function as
 'keep state' in additional to 'limit' stated purpose
 is very
 important information. Also that 'limit' and 'keep
 state' can not be
 coded together is another very important piece
 information that need
 to be documented in the man IPFW data.
 
 Should this be submitted as an problem report?
 
 
Snippits from 
IPFW(8) on FBSD 5.2
---[begin snip]---
STATEFUL FIREWALL
 Stateful operation is a way for the firewall to
dynamically create rules for specific flows when
packets that match a given pattern are detected.  
Support for stateful operation comes through the
check-state, keep-state and limit options of rules.

[snip]-

 Dynamic rules will be checked at the first
check-state, keep-state or limit occurrence, and the
action performed upon a match will be the same as in
the parent rule.

---[end snip---

There is also an occurence farther down under the
EXAMPLES area in the DYNAMIC RULES area which
doesn't mention the limit option.
---[begin snip}---

 Dynamic rules are checked when encountering the first
check-state or keep-state rule.

---[end snip]

Granted it doesn't say anything about them not working
if used together but, since it does say that they both
create dynamic rules, it looks to be intuitively
implied that they wouldn't be used together.

 Hello!
 
 I've spent almost the entire evening trying to track

 Anyway, here's the problem:
 
 I'm using bridge, but I'm not able to contact the

 using the bridge. If a box
 outside the bridged enviroment, tries to contact
 the bridge box, there's
 no problem what so ever. 
 
 The interface that is assigned an ip, is the
 external interface (the one
 connected to my vdsl-modem), and it gets it's ip
 from a DHCP server. 
 
 This is my relevant (at least, I hope so ;)
 configurations:

 options IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT

Do the boxes on the inside of bridge have ip
addresses on the same subnet as the dhcp assigned ip
on bridge box? 
If you are trying to use different address ranges than
you are having a routing problem.

Re: Backup Server

2003-12-30 Thread Dave McCammon
man mysqldump

and check out the man page for rsync at

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=rsyncapropos=0sektion=0manpath=FreeBSD+5.1-RELEASE+and+Portsformat=html

you can dump the databases  and use rsync on the
single machine(client) to copy or pull the
files/directories of your choosing from the servers
to the client.
Please look at the man page and look at the scripts
for rsync that were given in this thread. It is quite
easy to setup.
After looking back at one of your other replies, You
don't need to have rsync running as a daemon on any of
the machines. You just need to have rsync installed on
all. Rsync will basically tunnel through ssh (or rsh
if you want) to do the transfers(or synchronizations).

  I have had a bit of a look into this myself and
 this is my take on it.  I 
  would like to hear of other people experiences
 too.
  
  There are a number of things that you have to
 decide on first before you go 
  any further. 
  
  These are:
  budget
  how critical the system is to downtime
  how much data you are willing to lose
  how long are you willing to wait for the second
 system to kick in.
  These will determine how you are going to build
 your system.  You will have to 
  keep the answers in mind when you are looking at
 any solution.
  
  What you seem to be looking for is a failover
 system.  There is a fair bit 
  written about failover systems.  Googling will
 find you lots.  Make sure that 
  you look up linux high availability and failover
 as well to get a broader 
  view.  I have added some links below.
  
  There is really 2 things that you are trying to do
 here.  Provide redundancy 
  for the services and redundancy for the data.  The
 services are a bit easier 
  and cheaper than the data.  The big problem is the
 data, especially 
  databases.  Due to their nature they cant easily
 be copied while live.  
  
  A solution to this is a SAN.  With lots of money
 it is easier as you can buy 
  yourself a SAN and hook the two machines to it and
 host the data on the SAN.  
  With some clever scripts from those HA sites when
 one machine goes down the 
  other can take over and use the same data.  There
 are other solutions using a 
  fancy Y shaped SCSI cable to a external drive
 array.  Others my be able to 
  help here as I dont know about them.
  
  The other alternative is 2 identical machines.
  When you have 2 machines with the master storing
 data on its local drives it 
  gets tricker.  This is where you have to decide on
 how much data you are 
  willing to lose.  
  
  As an example we have a bsd box that rsyncs our
 windows fileserver ever hour.  
  Should windas go down we run a script on the
 workstations remapping our 
  drives to the bsd box.  In this case we are
 prepared to lose up to an hours 
  work.  We are also prepared to lose say 15-30
 minutes of time mucking around.  
  
  In your situation perhaps what you could do is
 upgrade to 5.1 and rsync 
  snapshots of your data to the secondary machine. 
 You could use the failover 
  setup as described on HA sites to fire up the
 services on the secondary 
  machine and take over.  This should work as
 snapshots are supposed to capture 
  an instant in time but I couldnt guarantee it
 until I tested it.  You would 
  still be losing data as you could only snapshot
 data and transfer it in 
  discrete intervals.
  
  A handy thing that linux has that I dont think
 that freebsd has is drbd.  This 
  is a block device that can mirror data across a
 network.  If freebsd had this 
  it would be easy to make the second machine a true
 mirror of the first.  
  I wonder if they are looking at a thing similar to
 this in the future.
  
  Look here for some intersting reading
  
  http://linux-ha.org/

install rsync from the ports on all machines

in a cron job or from command line. This command will
use rsync-over-ssh from the client to the

grep, netstat, and bridging

2003-12-23 Thread Dave McCammon
I this a feature, bug, or just some logical thing that
grep does( or perhaps netstat)?

Scenario:

IP addresses
comp1=xx.xx.xx.1
comp2=xx.xx.xx.6
comp3=xx.xx.xx.12

comp1 and comp3 run FBSD 4.9 stable
comp2 runs FBSD 5.1-RELEASE

comp1 is a bridging firewall using ipfw

A: comp2# netstat -n |grep xx.xx.xx.1

tcp4 0 0  xx.xx.xx.6.54953 xx.xx.xx.12.3551 TIME_WAIT
tcp4 0 0  xx.xx.xx.6.54952 xx.xx.xx.12.3551 TIME_WAIT
tcp4 0 0  xx.xx.xx.6.22xx.xx.xx.1.1233 
ESTABLISHED


B: comp2# netstat -n |grep xx.xx.xx.1.

tcp4 0 0  xx.xx.xx.6.54954 xx.xx.xx.12.3551 TIME_WAIT
tcp4 0 0  xx.xx.xx.6.54953 xx.xx.xx.12.3551 TIME_WAIT
tcp4 0 0  xx.xx.xx.6.22xx.xx.xx.1.1233 
ESTABLISHED


C: comp2# netstat -n |grep xx.xx.xx.12

tcp4 0 0  xx.xx.xx.6.54957 xx.xx.xx.12.3551 TIME_WAIT
tcp4 0 0  xx.xx.xx.6.54956 xx.xx.xx.12.3551 TIME_WAIT


Actually..I see the same output on a cygwin machine
behind the comp1 firewall.

So, does this have something to do with the bridging
as I do not see the same behavior on another FBSD
machine that is on a different network?

Re: (UPDATE) apcupsd 3.10.8 master/slave setup(whoops 3.10.6)

2003-12-18 Thread Dave McCammon
For the record.

The quick fix for Apcupsd 3.10.6 hangup problems was
to delete the apcaccess status parts out of the
scripts in /usr/local/etc/apcupsd/. (commok,
onbattery, etc...). Event messages still get walled
and mail still gets sent. Just non of the UPS status
information in messages. The status info can still be
gotten by doing a apcaccess status on the command
line (which used to not work, either).

What was happening was that when the power to the UPS
was pulled...the master server's apcupsd got stuck in
the script(or something associate with the status
part of the script) which stalled apcupsd. No slaves
could contact the master and, when power was restored,
apcupsd wouldn't respond to the event.

I believe this also happened when in standalone mode,
come to think of it.

Anyway, thanks to Lewis Watson in the apcupsd-user list.

 email.
 
 Also, apcupsd does not halt the system.  I noticed
 in the docs that for
 this to work on FreeBSD you need a Smart UPS, and
 use the

 Since I do not have a

 My question is what model number of APC UPS is
 working well for you with

 My current setup did work fine with Red Hat 9.0 and

The FBSD master on 1400xl collects info from the
standalone and W2K master for the web based network

All host send email to root when there is an

 It's not deterministic, or if it happens to be so
 under FreeBSD, it's not on 
 other platforms and you should not rely on a
 particular order.
 
 If you've got commands which depend on each other in
 cron, do something like:
 
   command1 ; command2 ; command3
 
 ...or...
 
   command1  command2  command3
 

Thanks for the reply.
Basically, what I am looking for is to get a command
to run right before newsyslog rotates a log
file(awstats and apache log file.
 
After I sent the message, I started playing with
/etc/crontab and noticed that the lower on the list
the sooner the command would run (per /var/log/cron)
in comparison with a command set to run at the same
time.
What I did was put an 'echo' command above the
newsyslog entry, restarted cron,waited for top of
hour, checked log, moved command below the newsyslog
entry, restarted cron, waited for top of hour and
checked log file.
The command ran before cron when listed lower and then
ran after when command was listed above the newsyslog
entry. I also noticed that when the 'atrun' command
runs at the top of the hour, it will run after the
newsyslog entry and newsyslog is listed lower in the
/etc/crontab file.

Perhaps this predictable behavior is in FreeBSD only.
(I don't have access to other platforms). Or perhaps
my simple test was too simple. It just seemed to be
too predictable to not at least try to get some feed
back.

I had install problems using a realtek/8139 based NIC

 Wish to place a FreeBSD server in front of the

 NIC1 on the FreeBSD box would go to the Internet

 NIC2 on the FreeBSD box would go to the switch.
 
 All addresses used are routable(3 /24 blocks will be

 all addresses/packets should be passed through
 without any NAT or other
 readdressing taking place. Aside from telnetting

 need any IP addresses except for whatever is needed
 for the above setup.

 Why are you confused?
 
 That depends on what you're trying to do and what
 the contents of
 /etc/ipfw.rules are.  There are currently the
 following ways to set up
 a completely custom set of firewall rules:
 
 1. Rewrite /etc/rc.firewall
 
This can easily be done, if you replace
 /etc/rc.firewall with your
custom script.  This isn't recommended though
 since you'd have to
carefully track all changes to the official
 version of the
rc.firewall script and merge any interesting
 stuff back to your
version of the script.
 
 2. Add a new firewall type to rc.firewall
 
Copying one of the existing firewall types you
 cann easily add a
new one, and make sure that it loads all (and
 only) the ipfw(8)
rules that you want.  This can be difficult to
 keep up to date
after changes to the rc.firewall script, but not
 as difficult to
keep up to date as option #1.
 
 3. Write your own version of a firewall script
 
Copy `rc.firewall' to a new script (i.e.,
 `rc.firewall.local') and
make your changes to the new script.  Then set
 firewall_script to
point to the new script in `/etc/rc.conf'.  For
 example:
 
   % cat /etc/rc.firewall.local
   fwcmd=/sbin/ipfw
   ${fwcmd} -q flush
   ${fwcmd} add 1 pass ip from any to any
 
   % grep firewall_script /etc/rc.conf
   firewall_script=/etc/rc.firewall.local
 
This is a fairly nic way of doing things, but it
 doesn't work
correctly if you want to tweak the way ipfw(8) is
 called by
settings things like firewall_quiet=YES in your
 `rc.conf' file.
Mostly because the logic for all those
 firewall_xxx options is
implemented as part of the existing `rc.firewall'
 script.
 
 4. Create a ruleset file, and point rc.firewall to
 it
 
You can always write your own set of firewall
 rules, without a
${fwcmd} prefix, and save it to a file, i.e.
 `/etc/ipfw.rules'.
This is a plain text file that contains *only*
 firewall rules.
No shell commands.  You can use `#' for comments
 (as shown in the
sample file below):
 
   % cat /etc/ipfw.rules
   flush
   add allow ip from any to any
 
Then you just need to make sure that your
 `rc.conf' contains the
following two lines:
 
   firewall_enable=YES
   firewall_type=/etc/ipfw.rules
 
The firewall_type value is the *FULL* path to the
 ruleset file.  It
is important to include the leading `/'
 character.  This way,
ipfw(8) will know that this is the path of a rule
 file and not the
name of a command (like `add' in `ipfw add ...').
 
This is the way I usually prefer setting ipfw(8)
 up.  For various
reasons.  One of them is that my firewall rules
 are not lost in
between the lines of some shell script that I
 don't remember I have
edited.  Another reason is that having made no
 changes to the
original `rc.firewall' script, there is no need
 to take care for
merging changes later with mergemaster(8).
 
 Phew.  This was long.
 
GREAT Explanation. The difference in using
firewall_script and firewall_type ought to be outlined
in the Handbook.

You can get rid of these messages as previously

the DNS properties(the best way).
Or you can try the suggestion at this link.

Could be quite useful since the newbie would be
working on a FreeBSD server.(Assumed since you mailed

jumpy optic mouse

2002-11-21 Thread Dave McCammon
Anyone got a fix for a jumpy optic mouse in X
It is a PS/2 Labtec Optical Mouse.

Works fine in Win2k. Generic PS/2 worked fine before 
I switched.
probed at boot as:
psm0: PS/2 Mouse irq 12 on atkbdc0
psm0: model 4D+ Mouse, device ID 8

Freebsd 5.0-current Nov 19.
Latest Xfree4 from ports
(in Xfree config under Mouse0)
Option  Protocol Auto
Option  Device /dev/psm0
have tried sysmouse as protocol--didnt' work
have tried PS/2 as protocol--didn't work.
have tried /dev/sysmouse as device--didn't work
have tried above both (sysmouse,
/dev/sysmouse)together--didn't work
have tried above with moused_enable=YES in rc.conf
which didn't work


Thanks.

 There are two XFree86Config files. Maybe you are
 modifying the wrong one.
 Just a guess...

With one modification to /etc/X11/XF86Config I had
created a bigger problem(X died completely) so I
presumed that was the place.
Where is the other file?

In the /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/ directory, I only have

other is XF86Config.eg.

 So you have one XF86Config file. Check this also, it
 might help.
 
 http://www.xfree86.org/4.0.1/XF86Config.5.html
 
This worked but a little bit of a hassle.
With X running-plugged in a working PS/2 scroll mouse-
hit the CTL-ALT-BKSP to restart X.
The mouse worked fine. Unplugged working PS/2 scroll
mouse-plugged in PS/2 optic mouse-hit the CTL-ALT-BKSP
and now optic mouse works fine.
hm. Any suggestion why?

 How jumpy?  Do you just need to play with the mouse
 settings of xset?
Mouse will move normally, then, all of the sudden,
jump to left of screen or bottom left of screen.

 Mouse setup is fairly well documented.  I think most
 people configure
 moused to run the mouse and then tell X to use
 /dev/sysmouse instead
 of /dev/psm0.  Maybe you've got the two mouse
 drivers both going after
 /dev/psm0 or something.

Using moused and pointing X to sysmouse protocol and
/dev/sysmouse didn't work at all. Mouse became
extremely eratic.
Regular PS/2 mouse worked fine with same setup as I
have now. Optic PS/2 mouse has to be plugged in after
X is started with the regular PS/2 mouse.

I wonder if adding the following (taken from

DELAY(100); 
cpu_reset();

to the following in the cpu_halt(); area would work.

You would have to modify the delay time.

accordingly.
 */
static void
shutdown_halt(void *junk, int howto)
{
  if (howto  RB_HALT) {
 printf(\n);

DUH!! on my part. My previous response was a little
overboard.

Why not just increase the delay to close to your
ups battery's runtime. 
(from kern_shutdown.c, starts on line 380)

/*
 * Everything done, now reset
 */
static void
shutdown_reset(void *junk, int howto)
{
printf(Rebooting...\n);
DELAY(100); /* wait 1 sec for printf's to
complete and be read */
/* cpu_boot(howto); */ /* doesn't do anything
at the moment */
cpu_reset();
/* NOTREACHED */ /* assuming reset worked */
}
