RE: Sendmail recommended permissions for apache/php server
You should not be changing the ownership and permissions on any of the directories used by sendmail(8), or the group membership of any of the groups used by sendmail. Not even if you think you know what you are doing. This is extremely security sensitive, and getting it wrong means at minimum unprivileged users can forge e-mails untraceably[*]. That's what I thought, I found it to work but preferred to ask on the list since it didn't make sense to me :) To the OP -- can you execute sendmail outside PHP? If you can use mail(1) to send a test e-mail, then sendmail should be fine. Note: test this as an unprivileged user. No it doesn't work, just tried it: %mail -s Hello lo...@msdi.ca Hello ! . EOT %WARNING: RunAsUser for MSP ignored, check group ids (egid=0, want=25) can not chdir(/var/spool/clientmqueue/): Permission denied Program mode requires special privileges, e.g., root or TrustedUser. Apr 12 08:47:08 dev sendmail[94980]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(msdi): can not chdir(/var/spool/clientmqueue/): Permission denied What are the permissions on /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail ? They should look like this: % ls -la /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail -r-xr-sr-x 1 root smmsp 662136 Apr 1 08:38 /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail # ls -al /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail -r-xr-sr-x 1 root wheel 707160 Jan 3 02:57 /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail So the group is wrong... I changed it from wheel to smmsp and everything works fine now ! Thanks a lot for the fix, but this server is a clean install of 9.0-RELEASE that I installed about 2-3 months ago. I never changed the permission myself on that file so I guess there is something wrong that would need to be fixed (unless it's already fixed in newer versions).

Sendmail recommended permissions for apache/php server
Hi, I am trying to use sendmail to send emails from a php script (I tried phpmailer and mail function with the same result). I always got messages like Could not execute: /usr/sbin/sendmail Sendmail is World executable: # ls -l /usr/sbin/sendmail lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 21 Jan 3 02:57 /usr/sbin/sendmail - /usr/sbin/mailwrapper So I've checked into /var/log/messages and found this: Apr 11 18:09:44 dev sendmail[38340]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(www): can not chdir(/var/spool/clientmqueue/): Permission denied I've checked permissions on the /var/spool/clientmqueue/ directory # ls -al /var/spool/clientmqueue/ drwxrwx--- 2 smmsp smmsp 3 Apr 11 19:01 . So I saw that only the user and group smmsp could write to this directory. I presumed the apache user should have access to it so I added www to the smmsp directory. I then got a different error in /var/log/messages Apr 11 19:38:40 dev sendmail[41170]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(www): can not write to queue directory /var/spool/clientmqueue/ (RunAsGid=0, required=25): Permission denied I found very old threads saying to change the group of apache to smmsp but I doubt it's a good idea. Chmodding 777 the /var/spool/clientmqueue/ fixed the problem, I can now send emails, but I wonder if this is the way to fix the issue correctly. Is that the official fix or did I missed some configuration somewhere ? Sending emails from php using mail or sendmail should be something working out of the box I guess, I doubt we're supposed to change permissions to make it work Any help would be appreciated.

12 TB Disk In freebsd AMD 64 ?
Hi, I am planning to build a 12x 1TB array RAID 6 on a hardware controller... I will use it as a nfs server for archiving files (we need to keep legal files for 6 years)... Raid 6 will give me a 10 TB drive approx... Reading these pages: http://www.freebsd.org/projects/bigdisk/index.html http://www.freebsd.org/projects/bigdisk/index.html http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/disks-adding.html http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/disks-adding.html I kinda understand freebsd is not well suited for that. I can read between the lines that we shouldn't go over 2TB. Is this information still exact or outdated ? I'm pretty sure I won't be able to boot on that megadrive so I planned on having 2 smaller disk on raid 1, but I want to make sure the big disk will work and will be reliable.

MySql54 Port With_CHARSET and WITH_XCHARSET

Linux for freebsd admins
Hi, I am not trying to start a war linux vs freebsd or a long thread on which distribution is best. Just trying to get a quick answer here. I am an inconditional to freebsd and I love it. Unfortunately I have an application that doesn't support freebsd and only run on linux. I tried to run it for a week under freebsd and it doesn't work. I have to install a linux machine and don't know which distribution to take. I tried debian ubuntu and fedora and didn't like them. I want: - A basic install (not 900 packages installed by default - No gui, I like my flashing cursor - an equivalent of ports. I want to easily compile my ports I don't like prebuilt package. Want to retrieve them by cvs. - an equivalent to portupgrade. I gotta admit mabe the three I tried was able to do that, but I'm so negative about linux thay maybe I didn't see the good point of it. Could you tell me which distribution you are using when you have no choice and need to go to linux ?

RE: RALUS for Linux - authentication failing

The exact version is RALUS-11d.7170.2, although I suspect any 10.0 - 11d version would be the same. After trying a few things (including installing on a real Linux host) I was able to identify and extract the files containing the two rpm's that are actually installed. I ran those through rpm2cpio and got a simple directory layout. I duplicated the directory structure and config file from the Linux host and ran the main executable. (The init script tries (and fails, even after I fixed all the hardcoded paths) to do some housekeeping, but none of it is necessary for the thing to actually run.) The executable seems to run okay and the host even shows up as a Unix target on the (Windows) Backup Exec server, but I'm unable to authenticate, preventing me from doing any backups. I've used the agent on other Linux and Solaris hosts successfully, and it generally just takes the OS root (or other user in the beoper group) password, without a need to set any ralus-specific passwords anywhere. Has anyone else gotten this to work on FreeBSD? If not, can anyone tell me (or speculate) what method the agent uses / might use to authenticate users? I was able to enable logging, so I know it sees the login attempt but it can't verify the password: 18006 Thu Jul 26 11:51:16 2007 : LogonUser failed for user: root because LogonUser: The input password does not match the OS password I ended up going with the legacy agent for Linux for now. The install script actually ran okay except for installing the startup script (which I had to edit anyway), and the agent seems to be running fine. It uses its own password and authentication so I didn't have the problem I did with the modern RALUS. I'm still open to any input but I probably won't be spending more time on getting the modern agent working if I don't have any new ideas. Thanks, ~~~ Hi John, Do you know the difference between the legacy and new one in term of functionalities ? Also, is the legacy agent an option during the installation of ralus ?

Basically, I don't there there is a better solution then giving away the root password, but at least, I would like a log of what has been done. Naturally, I understand any log could be overwritten/modified since the person is root, but since I don't think Zend would make fun in hacking my server, the point in having the log is to undo anything I wouldn't approve .. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
FW: Data corruption with Ide Raid Card
Hi, On our dev environnement, we have a clone server with a Promise FastTrak Tx2000 Pata Raid Card When we installed freebsd, it got detected and I didn't do anything special during the installation. Yesterday, a hard drive failed. Freebsd crashed with write errors on screen. I rebooted and removed the hard drive marked as dead in the raid controller. Freebsd booted up no problem, but I lost a couple of tables in some databases in mysql. Is there anything I forgot/did wrong to get into this problem ? or is it just that these controllers are so crappy that explain the corruption ? I more used to scsi hardware raid controllers in freebsd and never had a data corruption problem before even when disk died or because we hot-removed them. Any idea ? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Moving Freebsd to a new Server
Hi, We were in a rush to install a freebsd server without proper hardware on hand, so we used Microsoft Virtual Server and install Freebsd on it. I would like to move the freebsd installation to a real server and was wondering how to do so. I searched around and the solution seems to be to dump the hard drive content and restore it on the new server. Does anyone knows a good walkthrough of the entire process, I didn't find anything in the handbook beside moving freebsd to a new harddrive which I cannot do from the same machine. Basically, I need a way to dump the hd to file, transfer the file over whatever media (dvd, network, etc) and restore on the new machine. I'm not even sure if I need to install freebsd on the new machine or not since I guess I cannot overwrite the partition on which freebsd is running :-) Any help/reference would be appreciated Thanks in advance ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Port marked as broken
Hi, I just did a cvsup and a pkg_version -v to see that one of my port is outdated. pecl-memcache-2.1.0needs updating (port has 2.1.2) When I tried to portupgrade -a I got a message saying pecl-memcache-2.1.2 is marked as broken: Configure fails. I though something was broken on my system so I went to /usr/ports/databases/pecl-memcache/ and did a make deinstall followed by a make clean and a make I get the same error message saying: === pecl-memcache-2.1.2 is marked as broken: Configure fails. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/databases/pecl-memcache. I did some research and found that tag broken is in the cvs so I guess the developer set it that way. 2 questions: 1- How come a broken port is in the cvs ? Shouldn't the developer do a rollback or something if something fails ? 2- Is there a way to reinstall an older version hoping to get the functionality back (since I deinstalled :-() Thanks a lot. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

lost password caused by drunk admin

I was working late at home and had more then a few drinks... A lot more. I was working with a PAP2-NA (Analog to VoIP adapter (ATA)) and I changed the password. The password that was programed into the unit from my service provider was a randomly generated password and I was messing with a lot of the settings and needed to keep logging in. So I changed it to make my life easier. So any way I changed the password and now it appears I didn't change the password to what I had thought I had. The password was a short 4 digit number. Like I said I just wanted to make my life easier while I was messing around with it. Now I am locked out of the unit and TOTALY SOL. My phones don't work at the house because the think has been set incorrectly. I don't know how to crack passwords or even where to start. Is there some kind of script or application I can run on my FreeBSD system to try every combination of numbers from 0 - . It is possible I may have fat fingered the number so it could be 6 or 7 digits instead of the 4 I intended. I don't know. I tried every variation I can think of and even got drunk again hoping to recreate the stupid mistake. I have totally messed that one up. I would have had to type it twice which just goes to show you should not work on your junk while drunk. Can anyone help me out? The unit has no reset buttons to reset it to defaults there is nothing online that I can find to bypass the unit. I did a port scan and it appears to only be listening on port 80. Any thoughts out there? Please. Thanks and I hope I made someone laugh with my mistake because I know all my friends are. Thanks. How/over what protocol do you get to wherever it asks for the password? -- Best regards, Ghirai. Hi, Is it just me or haven't you jumped too fast to the difficult solution ? I did a simple search on google: +pap2 +password reset Which returned a lot of results... I read through a couple of them and it appears you can use the analog port to reset the password...

RE: Multiple routes to same destination?
You are right, Zebra will keep only one route in freebsd routing table since Freebsd cannot handle more. At Least zebra will change that route in the routing table if it detects some kind of network topology change (depending on the routing protocol) Best I've been able to reach.

Hi, this is not a scientific answer, but since no one else replied, here is what I found a while ago... When I installed Freebsd 6, i did a lot of reseach/posting and found out that there is no way freebsd will handle multiple routes to the same destination I was hoping to have two default routes for redundancy (and if possible, load balancing) I never heard of a kernel patch, and if there was one, I wouldn't feel confident with it (just my opinion) I then went with a routing package (there is zebra and quagga) which kinda did the trick. (I used quagga since I had some problem setting up zebra from the ports). It works fine but adds a level of routing that could have been handled by the kernel I guess.

Small Redundant web/mail setup
Hi, I need to setup a high-availability setup for mail/web setup I was thinking about the following setup: 4 servers total: Data Servers: 1 Server holding all the websites data and mail messages. It would serve these files via nfs to the application servers. It would also run mysql A second server Also sharing it's content via nfs, replicating it's data though rsync each ?? minutes. The mysql would run as a slave of theprimary Application Servers: Both servers would be running apache, php, sendmail and posfix and would serve content from the share nfs drive. 1- Is this a viable solution, I mean by that, Is it Like this big ISP are set up ? 2- Is there a better way to replicate data than RSYNC (without going to san of expensive hardware) ? If not, is there a hotsync feature (I mean by that as soon as server A modify something, server B knows and replicate)? I would appreciate if you could give me feedbacks, suggestions, or if you see any problem that might happen with this kind of setup.

Re: Multiple routes to same destination?
Hi, this is not a scientific answer, but since no one else replied, here is what I found a while ago... When I installed Freebsd 6, i did a lot of reseach/posting and found out that there is no way freebsd will handle multiple routes to the same destination I was hoping to have two default routes for redundancy (and if possible, load balancing) I never heard of a kernel patch, and if there was one, I wouldn't feel confident with it (just my opinion) I then went with a routing package (there is zebra and quagga) which kinda did the trick. (I used quagga since I had some problem setting up zebra from the ports). It works fine but adds a level of routing that could have been handled by the kernel I guess.

Re: navigating between html php
Php is running as a apache mopdule I guess...
So apache will need write access to the folder you are trying to write into...
Just try to make your directory writable by the www user to check
if this is your problem..
To do so, do into the directory your script is trying to write into
and do something like
chown www:wheel .
chmod 770 .
or something like that depending on your need...
see man chown
and man chmod
if you are not too sure what you need...
It might be something else that prevents you to write in your
directory (ie safe mode in php.conf) but without looking at your
code, it might be a good place to start with...

page1.php is the native html page1 passing a form to the

receive the form from page1.php and process the make dir
and then return to the page1.php to show any errors or
goto page2.php if make dir worked.
In main.php the line to check the dir_name for 0-9 a-z
gives error and I don't know what is wrong.
Also I can not find any function in php manual to
(goto or branch to) the native html page I want.
Is what I am trying to do legal?
Is there a better way to do this?

The function to redirect the user to another page is
header ('Location: http://www.yahoo.com');
This will do a http redirect, you must make sure the script has not
sent any output, otherwise the redirect will fail.
Instead of redirecting the user, you might do the following
use require, require_once, include, or include_once to inclure the
content of page1 this will have the same effect

Re: 80 pin SCSI hard drives.
There are called sca or single connect if I'm not wrong... Most high end servers (sun, hps, ibm, compaq, etc used those) They are basically 68 pins drive (can be U80, U160 or U320) so you just need a regular se scsi adapter for them. The only difference is that the power is coming though the connector, scsi ids are also set by the backplane instead of jumpers at the back of the drive... If you don't plan to put them on a server that has those backplane, you can buy a converter from 68 pins to 80 like this one for example: http://cgi.ebay.com/INTERNAL-SCSI-3-SCA80-pin-to-SCSI-2-IDC50M_W0QQitemZ5853652732QQcategoryZ41993QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem http://cgi.ebay.com/SCA-adapter-80-pin-to-SCSI-I-II-III-68-or-50-Converter_W0QQitemZ8750421043QQcategoryZ11160QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem http://cgi.ebay.com/414-SCSI-Adapter-SCA-80-to-68-to-50-PIN-GIFT_W0QQitemZ8751171361QQcategoryZ167QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem There is a bunch on ebay, just seach for sca 80 it may be hard to fit in your case, just make sure it fits :) At 21:21 2006-01-16, je killen wrote: I've obtained two SCSI hard drives made by Maxtor that have 80 pin connectors and no power connector port.

That prevents packet reordering within flows. Patches to add LACP negotiation (FEC is obsolete) are welcome though :) Oups :) Forgot to mention I was looking for switch redundancy also... So each nics were plugged into 2 separate switches so I was not able to configure the switch as trunk or etherchannel... On windows, I am able to team the nics on two different switches without problem with the hp or Intel teaming software, I guess only one nic works at the same time and register it's mac address in the switch tcam... For the original question, it should work with ng_one2Many :) ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Ports dependencies questions (php5-mysql-5.1.1 and php5-mysqli-5.1.1)
Hi, I have installed the ports php5-mysql-5.1.1 and php5-mysqli-5.1.1 during the make, the port mysql-client-4.1.16 got installed I need the newer version of mysql-client-5.x When I try to install it, I get an error saying I cannot install because mysql-client-4.1.16 is already installed. If I try to uninstall mysql-client-4.1.16 using pkg_delete I get an error because php5-mysql-5.1.1 and php5-mysqli-5.1.1 requires it... So is there a better way to install php5 with mysql support, or can the maintainer of this port change it so we can use mysql-client-5x or am I doing something stupid ? :) Thanks ~~ Windows:Where do you want to go today?

Carp for nic redundancy ?
Hi, from what I understand, carp is used to provide redundancy between two servers but can it provide redundancy for two nics in the same server ? ex: if a server has 2 nics and one goes down, the virtual ip would get transfered to the other nic... I'm looking for a way to team nic a bit like hp or intel does on windows, I tried stuff like netstat, one2many, ether, etc and can't find a way to make this work so I am wandering if carp could help. For now, since I didn't find anything that would work, I've put a couple of ips on my loopback interface, put each of my nics on 2 differents subnet and used ospf for redundancy. It works perfectly, but I would prefer to have redundancy at layer 2 not layer 3 Thanks ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I've been running amd64 version since version 6 been out without any crashes. I am running on dell's 1850 and 2850 servers. On my part, the only problem I see in it, is that commercial vendors don't support it so in my case, I can't run zend accelerator and pdflib since they are precompiled for IA32 IA32 compat won't help you in this case since these two program are loadable module so you cannot load a ia32 module in a amd64 compiled application even with compatIA32 in the kernel.
