Dear Sirs;
I have a 8core, 32 GB ram server I built myself. AMD cpu, with

the Version I would like is $40 for a four CD set, but that does not 
mean I get to use the server version of it. What is the server version 
going  to cost?

Sincerely,

FreeNAS is effectively a FreeBSD distribution emphasizing storage. It
is open source and free of cost:

The CDs are nice, but you can download an ISO also. iXSystems have
TrueNAS, which is costly. My understanding is that FreeNAS is a 
subset

of TrueNAS. See:

Ah, you need to build ntpd with -g in CFLAGS  LDFLAGS for debugging
symbols to be present



at the risk of sounding like an complete n00b, how do I do that?
After reading through the make man page, I decided on trying to build
the port with make CFLAGS+=-g LDFLAGS+=-g install clean however I
still get the no debugging symbols found message.  Does the
information in in the Makefile for the port overwrite this option 
from

the command line?  Or am I just using the incorrect syntax here?

(gdb) file /usr/local/bin/ntpd
Reading symbols from /usr/local/bin/ntpd...(no debugging symbols
found)...done.


Even more odd, I decided to go ahead and try a couple more systems, as 
this was working fine on my test system and one production system before 
I got to the one that broke.  I now have it running on 4 production 
systems and 1 test system.  The problem is on 2 production systems one 
with the openssl option one without, both these systems are running on 
identical hardware (Dell PowerEdge R310 purchased on same order).  The 
other two production systems are both totally different hardware wise, 
one is virtual on an ESX4 server, the other is on a custom built 
machine.  The first of which had the problem I did a fresh make 
buildworld and install last night as well as a rebuild of all ports.  
Problem still persists.  I am not sure what it is about these servers 
that's causing the problem, all other applications are running fine the 
configurations on these systems are all very similar, almost all the 
same ports installed.  One of the systems has a few more ports installed 
as its has more web based applications, but the virtual production 
server has the same ports installed, built with the same /etc/make.conf 
and /etc/src.conf options against the same /var/db/ports/ directory so 
they ports were installed with the same settings, only difference is the 
run time configuration, however the ntpd configuration is the same on 
all systems.


I have also discovered since the last email that the -d option isn't 
necessary to keep it running, the -n option which keeps it from 
detaching from the session will work as well.  I worked around the issue 
for now by manually running it with daemon and adding the -n so its 
detached and running.

Re: Ports Libraries - Shared object libz.so.5 not found

2012-04-24 Thread Dean E. Weimer

On 24.04.2012 10:07, Carolyn Longfoot wrote:

I'm on 9.0 Release AMD64 and did not have Compat8x installed from
ports which fixed the issue, but I am wondering what (apart from
upgrading *all* ports) would be the correct approach to find out 
which

port needs to be updated so that whatever references the libz.so.5
version instead of libz.so.6 gets updated?

This is very confusing to me because I got the error with php, and I
am on the very latest php5-5.3.10_1 version which I would expect to
reference current libraries.

Now I also have a problem with libssl.so.7, which popped up with
Samba36. Again I'm wondering what version provides the .7 
incarnation.

I found a comment (http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=21886)
that this library is part of security/openssl but a reinstall just 
now

of openssl only gave me libssl.so.8, so that's no longer valid.
Creating a link to libssl.so.7 fixes the problem but is probably not
the correct approach.

I guess the summary of the above is the question how one should go
about keeping/getting the right library versions. Or is that really a
port problem because they do not keep step with dependencies?

An explanation in layman's terms would be appreciated :-)


Thanks,

pkg_libchk from the sysutils/bsdadminscripts port should show you 
anything that is pointing to a missing shared library.  Yes you should 
rebuild the samba36 port so that it links against the new libssl.so.8 
library.  I ran into a few of these when upgrading from openssl-1.0.0_10 
to openssl-1.0.1, I also believe I hit the libcrypto.so.7 missing as 
well.  I temporary linked them as you did, then rebuilt all ports just 
to be safe.


if you use portmaster to update ports, doing a -r on the openssl port 
would have recompiled all the ports dependent on it.  However in my case 
it blew up because of these missing libraries, adding a -w (causes 
shared libraries to be kept) as well resolved this on the additional 
machines I updated.

ntpd problems after port updates

2012-04-23 Thread Dean E. Weimer
I am running NTPD built from ports on system that has had world rebuilt 
without ntp.  After doing some port updates this morning to the latest 
OpenSSL which caused ntp to rebuild as its built against the OpenSSL 
port.  ntpd now core dumps at start, in order to attempt and resolve the 
issue I tried starting ntpd with the -d switch added, at which point it 
loads fine without any problems.


NTP options set in rc.conf
# Enable NTP Daemon
ntpd_enable=YES
ntpd_flags=-p /var/run/ntpd.pid
ntpd_program=/usr/local/bin/ntpd

Only option checked when doing make config on the port is the with 
OpenSSL option.


if I execute: /usr/local/bin/ntpd -p /var/run/ntpd.pid
The result is a signal 11 core dump.

if I execute: /usr/local/bin/ntpd -d -p /var/run/ntpd.pid
The result is a successful launch, but of course it doesn't detach from 
the terminal and it start showing debugging logs on the terminal.


Anyone have any clue how I can determine what's causing it to crash 
when started without the -d?

If you run 'ldd /usr/local/bin/ntpd', that might be informative.

Consider not doing this-- OpenSSL has a much worse security history
than ntpd itself does.  In particular, the ASN.1 parser is infamous
for trouble, such as CVE-2012-2110.

Run gdb against ntpd and the coredump you've gotten to see the crash
backtrace.  Or run ntpd under gdb.



Tried rebuilding without the with SSL option set, oddly it started once 
after that, but a restart caused same behavior.  gdb doesn't give me 
anything that I know how to interpret, gdb -c /ntpd.core.  (I haven't

Ah, you need to build ntpd with -g in CFLAGS  LDFLAGS for debugging

at the risk of sounding like an complete n00b, how do I do that?  After

am I just using the incorrect syntax here?

The prefs show the drive info with BD-R BD-RE listed in write

you to insert a blu-ray medium if file sizes total over 8GB

It looks to have all the support needed.

As for authoring a blu-ray to play in your home theatre it could be
another story - I haven't looked into that.

I am not sure about the ISO formatting needed for this, the blu-Ray 
specifications I believe call for the file system to be UDF version 
2.5/2.6.  I don't believe FreeBSD supports greater than UDF 1.5.  I ran 
into this issue a while back after building an ISO image server to 
present an NFS volume to VMware ESX servers to allow O/S and Software 
installation media for mounting as guest Machines CDROMS.  I also chose 
to write scripts and mount the ISO images as file systems to allow 
access to them via Samba when mounting the CD Wasn't necessary.  A few 
software DVDs we had at the time used UDF 2.0, and I was unable to read 
them.


This server was built on FreeBSD 7.2, but I haven't noticed anything in 
release notes since stating an update to the UDF version support.  Of 
course that doesn't mean it hasn't been updated, and either not 
included, or I missed them.  Just something that I think you should 
check into before getting to far into any project with Blu-Ray burning 
on FreeBSD.

FreeBSD 9.0 Snapshots

2012-03-22 Thread Dean E. Weimer
Has anyone been using Snapshots on UFS with journaled soft-updates 
enabled?


I have a couple of new systems built after 9.0 came out, my backup 
scripts take snapshots, and then mount them to backup the files, the 
couple older servers that I upgraded from 8.2 to 9.0 from source are not 
having any problems, a quick check shows their file systems aren't 
running the new journaled Soft-Updates options.  The new systems which 
are, frequently hang up and become unresponsive when taking the 
snapshots.

flowcleaner running away with CPU

2012-03-14 Thread Dean E. Weimer
I have a FreeBSD 8.2-REALEASE-p5 system that is running as a Squid 
proxy server, after some complaints for internet performance I logged 
into the system to take a look, and discovered the flowcleaner process 
is consuming 100% on one CPU.  I did some searching, and have discovered 
that there have been some bugs in the past with this, and found the 
flowing command listed as a work around.


sysctl net.inet.flowtable.enable=0

I tried this, but there was no change, is this something that has to be 
done in the sysctl.conf configuration file that doesn't take effect 
until a reboot?  Or is there a process I can restart that will at least 
temporarily resolve this issue without completely interrupting internet 
traffic for a few hundred users?

Capturing Information About PANIC

2012-03-08 Thread Dean E. Weimer
I am having problems with my system panicking and crashing during 
Bacula backups.  Is there any way short of enabling full memory dumps to 
log the output of the crash?  After a reboot there is no information in 
the messages log, and dmesg generally only shows the information since 
the reboot started.


The system is running FreeBSD9.0-RELEASE compiled from source, I had it 
running bacula backups for close to 2 weeks without a problem, but now 
it consistently crashes every night.  The system is running the client 
directory and storage daemon, oddly enough it never crashes when backing 
up itself, but instead crashes when backing up one of the two remote 
systems.  I was beginning to think that perhaps my recompile using clang 
was the problem, so I rebuilt the world and all ports without clang but 
the problem persists.


I have tested my external eSATA drive on another system, and 
temporarily connected the drive to the internal SATA ports to rule out 
the eSATA controller and the backup drive as the source of the problems. 
This is the only drive in the system that is setup with GEOM_ELI 
encryption, so I can't rule out that the encryption process is causing a 
load that the motherboard/CPU/RAM is failing to cope with for hardware 
reasons.  Though this system shouldn't have a problem keeping up.

Re: USB 3 / eSATA support

2012-02-14 Thread Dean E. Weimer


I think for now I am going to build FreeBSD VM on my windows box and
dedicate it to running Bacula Director and Storage Daemon, I was able
to get a 20MB sustained through put through the VMware USB emulation
copying a file from an SFTP as I had no large files on the local
system from my test FreeBSD 9 VM.  Though now I don't know why I
didn't think to just us dd from /dev/random to a file on the disk,
will likely give that a try once my new VM is built.  This will get 
me

by performance to a workable speed until I can come up with a more
permanent solution, and keep me from spending more money this month 
so

I have a little bit left to add to my savings account.


Just an update to this thread in case anyone runs into it, and thinks 
building a FreeBSD VM within VMware to run Bacula backups to a USB hard 
drive is a good idea.  It turns out that it isn't, not sure if its a 
VMware FreeBSD guest issue, or a general VMware USB issue, but the heavy 
load on the USB drive has caused several crashes of the host system.  
Which of course in turn means a hard crash of the FreeBSD virtual 
machine, complete with corrupted file systems.  It did give me some 
practice recovering lost Bacula database as I lost my whole PostgreSQL 
database due to corrupted files once.  This might work for many small 
files, backups ran OK for my web server, but backups against the FreeNAS 
server with around 200G about 100G is an iTunes library, and around 
another 20G is photos.  When hitting these bigger files with less 
overhead that allowed for more throughput to the USB device the crashes 
began to occur.


Of course, I should note this setup was done with a FreeBSD9.0-Release 
virtual machine built from source, using clang, and all ports where 
possible also built with clang.  And running open-vm-tools (these do 
fail to build with clang) as the VMware tools won't install on FreeBSD 
9.0  I am sure VMware has not done any testing with this setup yet, nor 
do I know if they ever will.  So the problem may not exist with other 
guest operating systems.


Also of note, I was originally running under a windows 7 host PC, after 
the crashes, I switched to CentOS 6 on the host, with a windows Virtual 
machine to run the applications needing windows.  The crashes still 
occur under CentOS, though a little less frequent than they did under 
windows.

USB 3 / eSATA support

2012-02-03 Thread Dean E. Weimer
I am working on setting up a Bacula backup to an external hard drive.  
The server I am running this on has an on-board USB 2 controller, 
however the external USB 3 SATA drive doc I am using is only being 
recognized as USB 1.  It does correctly load as USB 2 or USB 3 if I move 
it to my windows machine which has both USB 2 and USB 3 ports.


Before I spend money adding a USB 3 card to the server in order to get 
the external drive doc to load as USB 3, I was wondering if anyone had 
any good or bad things to say about FreeBSD's USB 3 support.


Would I be a lot safer spending money on an eSATA card and a eSATA doc, 
knowing that this would give be better performance, but would prefer to 
not spend any more money than I have to.


Or maybe someone would have an idea as to something I could tweek to 
get more than 1MB/s transfer speed from my existing setup, if I could 
get the full speed of USB2.0 this would run adequate for my needs.

It's Looking like eSATA is going to be my pick, to be on the safe side, 
I could spend the $50 on a USB 3 card, and have it not work, or spend 
$50 on an eSATA card and another $40 for the drive doc, and cable.  If 
the USB card doesn't work for me then I either have to deal with 
additional shipping and restocking fees, or just keep the card and eat 
the expense.


Unfortunately I live in a small town where this hardware isn't 
available locally, so online is my only choice.


Does anyone have any experience using the SYBA Cards on FreeBSD?

I know this isn't anything enterprise class, but this is my home system 
after all, and there's a point where its cheaper to just buy all my 
iTunes music and Movies over again than throw hardware at a backup 
solution.  I think I have already passed that, but there are several 
gigs of photos that can't be replaced, and I am trying to get something 
a little more portable to be taken to work unlike my current method of 
rsync with two machines at the house.


I am using bacula instead of rsync for this, simply because my employer 
recently purchased a controlling interest in a small electrical 
engineering design firm to make sure it had priority access to get some 
components designed as we migrate our dieing mechanical lines into 
electronic.  I am tasked with implementing a next to zero cost backup 
solution for them, and as they are Linux based on all there servers, I 
decided to implement a local bacula server at my house to to learn the 
product before setting it up for them.  I am hoping to maybe sneak in 
some FreeBSD replacements to their Ubuntu file servers if I can (maybe 
FreeNAS, depending on how my tests go with installing and backing up 
through bacula client on it).  I have already replaced their consumer 
firewalls with pfSense boxes running on Alix boards, which has turned 
out to be a huge stability and performance gain for them.

Just in case you aren't aware, you don't necessarily need an eSATA

I am also looking around, and I have enough spare components to build 
another machine and just run it with the case open and do a shutdown and 
swap hard drives, but I might go broke paying my electric bill if I keep 
adding new PCs for everything.

FreeBSD 9 buildworld with clang failure

2012-02-02 Thread Dean E. Weimer
I am trying to rebuild everything in a development machine with clang 
to test for production, and ran into a problem on the buildworld 
process.  This machine was already rebuilt from source using gcc, here 
are the options I have set in make.conf and src.conf.  The lines I added 
to enable clang, and the steps I took to compile.


Options in /etc/src.conf
WITHOUT_BIND_DNSSEC=YES
WITHOUT_BIND_LIBS_LWRES=YES
WITHOUT_BIND_NAMED=YES
WITHOUT_BIND_UTILS=YES
WITHOUT_NTP=YES
WITHOUT_PROFILE=YES

Options already in /etc/make.conf
WITH_OPENSSL_PORT=yes
WITHOUT_X11=yes
CFLAGS= -O -pipe
PERL_VERSION=5.12.4

Added to /etc/make.conf
.if !defined(USE_GCC)
.if !defined(CC) || ${CC} == cc
CC=clang
.endif
.if !defined(CXX) || ${CXX} == c++
CXX=clang++
.endif
.if !defined(CPP) || ${CPP} == cpp
CPP=clang-cpp
.endif
.endif


Did the cleanup process from previous build and currently installed 
setup.

chflags -R noschg /usr/obj/usr
rm -rf /usr/obj/usr
cd /usr/src
make cleandir
make cleandir

Then ran make buildworld, it died on libc with the following output:

9.0 buildworld problems

2012-01-14 Thread Dean E. Weimer
I am trying to build a test system to verify everything works on 
FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE, I started with a standard install on a VMware 
virtual machine.  I used portsnap fetch extract to install the ports 
tree, copied the /etc/make.conf and /etc/src.conf from my existing 8.2 
system onto the new test system.


Contents of /etc/make.conf:
# Use OpenSSL from ports instead of base
WITH_OPENSSL_PORT=yes
# Avoid Building Ports Against X
WITHOUT_X11=yes
# Some Default Options From /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf
CFLAGS= -O -pipe
NO_PROFILE=true
# Enable SMTP Authentication
SENDMAIL_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include/sasl -DSASL
SENDMAIL_LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib
SENDMAIL_LDADD=-lsasl2
# Enable Proxy For Ports Fetch
FETCH_ENV=http_proxy=http://192.168.5.1:3128

# added by use.perl 2012-01-14 12:46:15

Contents of /etc/src.conf:
WITHOUT_BIND_DNSSEC=YES
WITHOUT_BIND_LIBS_LWRES=YES
WITHOUT_BIND_NAMED=YES
WITHOUT_BIND_UTILS=YES
WITHOUT_NTP=YES


I then installed openssl, vim-lite, and cvsup-without-gui from ports, 
copied the example standard-supfile to a new location, changed the host= 
line, left the rest as default options.  Ran cvsup to download source 
tree, ran make -j16 buildworld from the /usr/src directory.


The buildworld stoped here:
=== gnu/lib/libsupc++ (install)
sh /usr/src/tools/install.sh -C -o root -g wheel -m 444   libsupc++.a 
/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/lib

1 error
*** Error code 2
1 error
*** Error code 2

*** Error code 2

I cleaned everything up and retried, it died at the same spot on the 
next run as well.  I have the full output of the buildwolrd process on 
my webserver, http://www.dweimer.net/buildworld.out.bz2


Interestingly enough at the same time I was building this system I was 
also testing an upgrade from source option on different virtual machine 
that was made from a restore of live system, after downloading the 
FreeBSD9.0 source tree and running buildworld from usr/src against 
copies of the same make.conf and src.conf file above, it built fine and 
the install process ran successfully.  The ports have all been rebuilt, 
and I am going to try a new buildworld to see if it succeeds or fails on 
that system now that its running 9.0 instead of 8.2 when the last 
buidlworld was ran on it.

somewhat Off topic, Sendmail Issue

2011-10-12 Thread Dean E. Weimer
I know this is a Sendmail issue, but I haven't been able to track down 
any information online, or found any Sendmail user email lists yet.  And 
since I am running it on a FreeBSD server, I thought I would try here 
and see if anyone knows the answer to my problem.


I have enabled SSL on SMTP to enable the delivery and reception of TLS 
encrypted emails, the server is going to be used as a relay between a MS 
Exchange server and an external Spam filtering service that has an 
encrypted email sending application that strips attachments and creates 
a password protected HTTPS link based on keywords in the subject.


Everything works as expected, but when I test the server against 
required PCI scans, it accepts weak encryption ciphers, I need to limit 
these ciphers.  After a lot of extensive searching I have found 
references to the fact that it is possible to configure Sendmail to do 
this, but I can't find any documentation on how to do it.


The server is running FreeBSD 8.2 which is patched up to p4, and 
Sendmail was configured with the following options, this test setup is 
also being used to test secure IMAP with authentication, so there are 
settings in here as well for Cyrus IMAP.


/etc/make.conf:
# Use OpenSSL from ports instead of base
WITH_OPENSSL_PORT=yes
# Enable SMTP Authentication
SENDMAIL_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include/sasl -DSASL
SENDMAIL_LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib
SENDMAIL_LDADD=-lsasl2
# Adding to enable alternate port (smtps) for sendmail...
SENDMAIL_CFLAGS+= -D_FFR_SMTP_SSL

Steps done after editing /etc/make.conf:
cd /usr/src/lib/libsmutil
make cleandir  make obj  make
cd /usr/src/lib/libsm
make cleandir  make obj  make
cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail
make cleandir  make obj  make  make install

/etc/rc.conf:
# Enable Sendmail
saslauthd_enable=YES
saslauthd_flags=-a sasldb
cyrus_imapd_enable=YES
sendmail_enable=YES

/etc/mail/hostname.mc:
define(`confLOCAL_MAILER',`cyrusv2')
define(`CYRUS_MAILER_PATH',`/usr/local/cyrus/bin/deliver')
MAILER(`cyrusv2')
dnl set SASL options
TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN')
define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN')
dnl Cert Options
define(`confCACERT_PATH', `/usr/local/etc/ssl/smtp')dnl
define(`confCACERT', `/usr/local/etc/ssl/smtp/gd_bundle.crt')dnl
define(`confSERVER_CERT', `/usr/local/etc/ssl/smtp/server.crt')dnl
define(`confSERVER_KEY', `/usr/local/etc/ssl/smtp/server.key')dnl
dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS
dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp, Name=MTA')
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtps, Name=TLSMTA, M=s')


I know that setting this option in Apache does the trick for HTTPS, I 
just need to figure out how to tell Sendmail to do the same.
SSLCipherSuite 
ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL:!LOW:!EXP:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:!SSLv2


If anyone has any idea how to do this, or any idea on what keywords to 
search on that might find me the directions it would be a great help.

Well after searching the comp.mail.sendmail list through Google groups, 
I have come up wiht the following changes.


I changed the orignal /etc/make.conf:
from this:
SENDMAIL_CFLAGS+= -D_FFR_SMTP_SSL

redid the compile steps:

under /etc/mail
executed the make, make install steps

After restarting, an attempt to do:
/usr/local/bin/openssl s_client -starttls smtp -cipher EXP-RC4-MD5 
-connect localhost:25


Failed, this successfully connected before these changes.  Scans are 
running now, I will let you all know if it was successful.

_FFR_TLS_1 is actually already defined in the default sendmail on

select the WITH_TLS option. I just added this setting to my sendmail

recompile anything.

It could certainly do with being mentioned in the documentation more

_FFR_SMTP_SSL on the other hand, doesn't appear anywhere under

Interesting info, I will take a look at that Makefile and see what I 
find, I found those options to set originally on a web page, can't quite 
remember where, I pieced info from a few different locations to get 
everything working as I wanted.  I do know a lot of it was originally 
done for an older version of FreeBSD, so perhaps it was an FFR option at 
that time it was written.  One thing I have figured out in this process 
is that Sendmail FFR compiled options are basically undocumented outside 
of the source file comments.  Perhaps it was my inclusion of an old 
setting, that caused the ciphers to open up more to start with.  It did 
pass the tests as is, I will look more into this though.  And see if I 
can't slim down the overall steps to get the server up and running 
before it goes live on a production server.

I don't doubt that would work, but I would rather stick with using 
syslogd to handle the logging.  As I am hoping to implement remote 
logging to another server for log consolidation of several servers, 
which is why I started the process of cleaning up the local logs.

Interesting method, I will keep this in mind for the future.

One thing to note, my config above seems to have started working after 
the messages log rotated.  I had restarted the syslog process by running 
/etc/rc.d/syslogd restart, but for some reason these messages continued 
until the newsyslog process rotated the messages file.


Now to get the rest of my servers local logs cleaned up and implement a 
new server for log consolidation.

Hi Mark,

That sounds good, and please post any further information so someone
else can help you troubleshoot further.

Here are some other questions for you to ponder:

- - What appears in the Apache access  error logs just before a 
freeze

occurs?

- - Are you using any unusual Apache config file settings or modules? 
How

about for PHP?

- - Are all of your installed ports up to date?

- - Have you done any Apache or PHP performance tuning using
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/misc/perf-tuning.html [3] or
http://phplens.com/lens/php-book/optimizing-debugging-php.php [4] as
starting points?

- - Have you enabled a PHP log file to record errors, warnings, etc.
generated by your application code?

Hope that helps,
Greg

I manage 8 FreeBSD virtual servers at work running 7.0, 7.1, and 7.2 in 
VMware ESX 4.0, they are running Apache2 with PHP, Bind, and Squid, any 
of the services they are running is all installed from source and kept 
up to date, as we are required to pass quarterly PCI scans.  So it 
doesn't speak much of programs installed from ports, but these systems 
stay very stable, the only issue I have is that after about 8 to 9 
months of system uptime (services are restarted more frequently for 
updates) sometimes the network will stop responding until the virtual 
machine is shutdown and powered back on. (I can't say that any of the 
windows servers on the cluster ever reach that length of uptime to 
compare with this)  We have 6 physical servers running with full 
automated vmotion there is about 80 windows servers runnign on the same 
systems.  Backed with an ISCSI SAN and 10G Ethernet adapters.  However 
our internet applications that utilize the FreeBSD servers are 
relatively low usage, squid is mainly used as outbound proxy for around 
600 Computer users which is the highest used resource on these servers, 
primarily between 5am and 7pm, so usage levels may not be near where you 
are running at.
I am running vmware tools installed from a VMware workstation 6.5 tools 
image, I have switched a couple of the systems over to the vmxnet 
drivers instead of running then as e1000 adapters, but haven't been 
running them long enough to see if that resolves are problem.  When it 
does occur the system is completely responsive when connecting to the 
console though, and can be cleanly shutdown.


I haven't noticed any issues with VMwawre performance monitoring 
reporting the systems CPU as hammered when the CPU on FreeBSD shows low, 
but these systems are much more heavily memory used followed by disk I/O 
CPU sits idle at most times.  I should also mention that they are setup 
with 2 vCPUs, perhaps if you are running a signal vCPU something is 
hanging one vCPU and mine setup is recovering OK because the 
applications complete using the other until the issue resolves itself.  
I haven't spent much time looking at historical usage graphs on these 
since I don't get any complaints about performance.

FreeBSD 8.1 iSCSI CHAP with header and data digest

2011-02-24 Thread Dean E. Weimer
I am trying to connect my FreeBSD 8.1 system to a FreeNAS server 
hosting an iSCSI drive.  I can successfully connect if I disable header 
and data digests, but can't seem to get a connection using header and 
data digests to succeed.  I know the FreeNAS  side is correct because I 
was able to connect and successfully format the drive and write data to 
it using my Windows 7 PC with CHAP and digests enabled.  Here is my 
FreeBSD iscsi.conf file, do any of you have any idea what I am doing 
wrong?


webmail# vim /etc/iscsi.conf
## Global Config
InitiatorName=ign.2005-01.il.ac.huji.cs:webmail.dweimer.local;

## Targets
# FreeNAS Backup Drive
backup {
  TargetName=iqn.2007-09.jp.ne.peach.istgt:backup
  TargetAddress=192.168.1.2
  AuthMethod=CHAP
  chapIName=webmail
  chapSecret=Password1234
}


Also when I connect using the iscontrol -c /etc/iscsi.conf -n backup 
command, I can't find a way to disconnect the drive.  I ended up 
rebooting the server to disconnect it so I could go back to testing with 
digests enabled.  Does anyone know how to disconnect an iscsi connection 
once connected without rebooting?

USB KVM Keyboard Drop Work-Around (almost, need help!!)

2004-08-09 Thread Dean E. Weimer
Bear with on this one, it is a little long, but I wanted to describe
problem with as much detail as possible.

I recently purchased a USB KVM to switch between my Windows XP Box and
FreeBSD (5.2.1-RELEASE) file/web development server.  I was able to use
the USB keyboard after a boot, but as soon as I switched to the XP Box and
back to the FreeBSD machine it would no longer recognize the USB keyboard.

Search the mailing lists, Google, and Yahoo, showed that I wasn't the only
one with this problem, but I could not find a fix or work around.

After some searching I discovered that by using the command
usr/sbin/kbdcontrol -k /dev/kbd1  /dev/console that I could then see
the USB keyboard again.  Furthermore I discovered that when I switched
back and fourth with the KVM these messages showed up in the
/var/log/messages syslog.

When Leaving:
ukbd0: at uhub1 port 1 (addr 3) disconnected
ukbd0: detached
uhid0: at uhub1 port 1 (addr 3) disconnected
uhid0: detached
ums0: at uhub1 port 2 (addr 4) disconnected
ums0: detached

When Returning:
ukbd0: CHESEN USB Keyboard, rev 1.10/1.10, addr 3, iclass 3/1
kbd1 at ukbd0
uhid0: CHESEN USB Keyboard, rev 1.10/1.10, addr 3, iclass 3/0
ums0: Cypress Sem PS2/USB Browser Combo Mouse, rev 1.00/0.00, addr 4,
iclass 3/1
ums0: 5 buttons and Z dir.

So logic told me that if I could figure out a way to execute the
usr/sbin/kbdcontrol -k /dev/kbd1  /dev/console command based on the log
I would have a functional work around.

I used Swatch (/usr/ports/security/swatch) form the ports tree to attempt
to solve this program.

My configuration for swatch contains the following:
watchfor /kbd1 at ukbd0/
bell 3
exec /usr/sbin/kbdcontrol -k /dev/kbd1  /dev/console

I am starting swatch at startup as a Daemon from a script in the
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/ directory simply passing it the --config-file,
--tail, and --daemon options.

At first all works great, can switch frequently between machines, the only
catch is it takes a few seconds for the mouse and keyboard to be detected,
but no longer than it takes XP.

But every few days the swatch daemon seems to hang.  I can ssh into the
box from my freebsd machine, kill the swatch process and relaunch the
daemon, and again it works for a few days and then hangs??

Anybody have any ideas??

mpd multihomed server

2002-11-25 Thread Dean E. Weimer
I have been running mpd as a server for pptp connections for my WinXP
laptop via a WLAN connection for some time now, I would like to expand the
pptp connections to answer on the Internet as well.  Is it possible to
make mpd answer on two different NICS, or will I have to use ipnat to
redirect the port on my Internet NIC.  My FreeBSD Firewall has three NICS:
NIC1-LAN, NIC2-ISP, NIC3-WLAN.  I have been able to get it to accept
multiple clients, and answer on either NIC2 or NIC3, but I can't get it to
answer on both NIC2 and NIC3 at once.

Please Copy my email with any replies.

Re: ipmon syslogd problems

 I believe *.notice includes all the higher levels, such as *.err and 
 *.warning.
 
 If you don't want messages from local0 and security facilities to 
 appear in /var/log/messages, add this to /var/log/messages:
 
 local0.none;security.none
 

Looking at the man page for syslog I see the line that I missed before that 
talks about the special facility log level none.  One thing to note, if 
you put it before the *.notice, you still get the messages, but putting it 
on the end of the line works.

ipmon syslogd problems

2002-10-01 Thread Dean E. Weimer

I have ipfilter set up and running fine, but I have been finding that my 
security logs show up in both my security and messages log files.  ipmon is 
running with the command ipmon -oI -s -D and my syslog.conf file has the 
following relevant configuration.
..
local0.*/var/log/security
security.*  /var/log/security
*.notice;kern.debug;lpr.info;mail.crit;news.err /var/log/messages
..
I am only logging blocked and short packets, which according to man ipmon 
should do the following.
..
-s Packet  information  read  in  will be sent through
   syslogd rather than saved to a file.   The  default
   facility when  compiled  and  installed is local0.
   The following levels are used:

   LOG_INFO - packets logged using the  log  keyword
   as the action rather than pass or block.

   LOG_NOTICE - packets logged which are also passed

   LOG_WARNING - packets logged which are also blocked

   LOG_ERR - packets which have been logged and  which
   can be considered short.
..
There is nothing in my syslog.conf that is pointing *.warning or *.err to 
messages.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening??
