Odd Messages showing up in /var/log/messages
Hello everyone. Just recently, some very odd messages started showing up in my /var/log/messages on a FreeBSD 4.9 MailGateway box.This box serves as our primary email scrubber, removing viruses and quarnatining spam. It has worked flawlessly for over a year. This messages started popping up just this week. Here is a few snips: May 20 08:22:27 mail jwilliams: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 255 with signal 0 May 20 08:22:38 mail jwilliams: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 255 with signal 0 May 20 08:23:44 mail jwilliams: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 255 with signal 0 May 20 08:26:45 mail jwilliams: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 255 with signal 0 May 20 08:31:50 mail jwilliams: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 9 with signal 0 May 20 08:34:39 mail jwilliams: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 9 with signal 0 May 20 08:35:01 mail jwilliams: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 255 with signal 0 May 20 08:37:37 mail jwilliams: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 255 with signal 0 Just to be sure, I ran chkrootkit as well as rootkithunter on the boxes, just to check. They both came back negative for any infections or foul play. But, I am still concerned about these messages and would like to know what they are and what is causing them.

Question on cvsup of ports and refuse file
Hello everyone. I've been able to get cvsup working the way I want as far as ports are concerned. I've setup my refuse file the way I like it and it has been working perfectly. I dont get the ports for games, audio and such on my mail server now. :) Anyway, a question on cvsup and refuse file ran through my mind today regarding this and I wanted to post it here. What do you do if you need to change your refuse file to allow or disallow new ports? For example, lets say I setup a brand new server and dont use any refuse file. Thus, I just download the entire ports tree altogether. Now lets say, I want to not get certain ports each time I cvsup the tree. What do you need to do to get this working correctly? DO i just add or remove the ports in the refuse file as needed? Or is there something else. Do I need to do any type of index updating (assuming I do not have portupgarde installed). Just something I thought about today and wanted to ask.

SMP on FreeBSD 4.9
Good morning everyone. I has a couple of quick questions regarding taking advantage of dual processors on a server that I have for our company. Now, i've never setup a FreeBSD box on a system that has 2 CPU's so this is my first shot at it. Following the handbook, I recompiled my kernel with support for SMP. After a quick reboot, I took a look at dmesg and here is what I see: CPU: Intel Pentium III (996.85-MHz 686-class CPU) Origin = GenuineIntel Id = 0x68a Stepping = 10 Features=0x383fbffFPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,MMX,FXSR,SSE real memory = 2147401728 (2097072K bytes) avail memory = 2086166528 (2037272K bytes) APIC_IO: MP table broken: 8259-APIC entry missing!

Re: SMP on FreeBSD 4.9
You could run top and watch the C column, which shows which particular CPU is being used by a process. This is quite interesting. After rebuilding my kernel for SMP support, I noticed the load average went up slightly. Is that normal? Right now, the system is being tested as a mail gateway server, running sendmail, mailscanner, SpamAssassin and clamav. Before I did the recompile, my load average was low, almost zero. It is showing a load average of around 0.02 now...Not much, but interesting. Any ideas?

Mounting a temporary filesystem
Hello everyone. I'm trying to mount a certain part of my filesystem as a temporary file system to improve performance. I'm running a Mail gateway server, with FreeBSD 4.9, Sendmail 8.12.11, MailScanner, ClamAV and spamassassin. I have a incoming mail queue directory that I wanted to mount as a temp file system to improve performance. The specific directory is /var/spool/mqueue.in I flipped through the man pages and came up with this command: mount -t mfs -o -s1048576 /dev/da0s1b /var/spool/mqueue.in/ But when I initiate the command, I see this: mailmg# mount -t mfs -o -s1048576 /dev/da0s1b /var/spool/mqueue.in/ Warning: Block size and bytes per inode restrict cylinders per group to 89. Did I count wrong or something? I cant seem to figure that one out. I tried changing the size of the temp fs, but still receive the same error. Anyone have any ideas? I appreciate it.

setting up network virtual hosts (ifconfig)
Hello everyone, Just was wondering about setting up virtual hosts on NIC cards on my FreeBSD box. I read the handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/configtuning-virtual-hosts.html Seems simple enough, but I seemed to be having a bit of a problem. For instance, I had this in my rc.conf: ifconfig_fxp0=inet 192.168.1.91 netmask 255.255.255.0 and tried to add this: ifconfig_fxp0_alias0=inet 192.168.1.75 netmask 255.255.255.0 Two questions here: After you made a change like this, how do you restart it without having to reboot? There a way to do this using ifconfig? Secondly, I rebooted my machine after testing this out, and it appeared to hang. When I looked at the console, it was stuck on the 'hostname' part. I'm currently looking for additional information to see what I did wrong, but thought i'd ask here to see if someone can point out my error. I appreciate the help.

Re: setting up network virtual hosts (ifconfig)
e.g. something like this works fine here : # /etc/rc.local : ifconfig fxp0 alias 192.168.2.222 netmask 0x That seemed to have done the trick, manually. Im guessing, I could put the same thing in my rc.conf file, but with proper syntax: ifconfig_fxp0_alias0=inet 192.168.2.222 netmask 0xff On a side note, if you set something up in rc.conf, how can you manually start it without having to reboot?

Re: setting up network virtual hosts (ifconfig)
Well that depends on what it is, but if you want to just go through everything you can do this: # shutdown now This will put you in single-user mode. Hit enter for the default shell, then just log out (Ctrl-D) and that will fire up init and run through the rc system again. What if you are doing this remotely? :) Any other way to get around that?

Questions regarding Sendmail on FreeBSD
Hello everyone. I've been playing with Sendmail for a couple of weeks now and I feel pretty comfortable with it. Lately, what i've done is just download the source code for sendmail and build and compile as needed. It still works fine. However, I have some questions about how Sendmail comes setup default on a FreeBSD system. For instance, there are quite a few directories and locations of where sendmail items are located and im confused as to why everything is where it is and why there are duplicate files. For instance: mail# find / -type d -name sendmail -print /usr/libexec/sendmail /usr/share/sendmail /usr/src/contrib/sendmail /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/include/sendmail /usr/src/etc/sendmail /usr/src/share/sendmail /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail Doing a quick scan of some of the directories: mail# ls -la /usr/share/sendmail/cf/ total 202 drwxr-xr-x 11 root wheel 512 Mar 5 04:58 . drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Mar 5 04:58 .. -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 174953 Oct 27 07:25 README drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel1024 Mar 5 04:58 cf drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 04:58 domain drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel1536 Mar 5 04:58 feature drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 04:58 hack drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 04:58 m4 drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 04:58 mailer drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel1024 Mar 5 04:58 ostype -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel6273 Oct 27 07:25 sendmail.schema drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 04:58 sh drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 04:58 siteconfig mail# ls -l /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/ total 604 -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 321 Aug 27 2000 FAQ -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel2290 Mar 29 2003 FREEBSD-upgrade -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel1952 Jun 20 2002 INSTALL -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 10346 Feb 13 2003 KNOWNBUGS -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel4117 Jun 20 2002 LICENSE -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 966 Mar 25 2002 Makefile -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 57708 Mar 3 2003 PGPKEYS -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 18089 Feb 13 2003 README -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 455225 Mar 29 2003 RELEASE_NOTES drwxr-xr-x 11 root wheel 512 Mar 5 13:24 cf drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel1024 Mar 5 13:24 contrib drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Mar 5 13:24 doc drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 13:24 editmap drwxr-xr-x 6 root wheel 512 Mar 5 13:24 include drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Mar 5 13:24 libmilter drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel2048 Mar 5 13:24 libsm drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 13:24 libsmdb drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 13:24 libsmutil drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 13:24 mail.local drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 13:24 mailstats drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 13:24 makemap drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 13:24 praliases drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 13:24 rmail drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 13:24 smrsh drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel1536 Mar 5 13:24 src drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 13:24 test drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 13:24 vacation mail# ls -la /usr/src/etc/sendmail/ total 18 drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 5 13:24 . drwxr-xr-x 14 root wheel 2048 Mar 5 13:24 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 3364 Sep 4 2003 Makefile -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 4144 Apr 24 2003 freebsd.mc -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 2236 Mar 29 2002 freefall.mc As you can see, there are a couple of 'cf' directories.

Re: BSD on machines with RAID
I would like to know if its possible to run Free BSD on IBM machines with a RAID controller (SCSI hard drives are used). I have tried installing it but the system keeps on freezing continuously during setup, the same system works perfectly with other OS's. What type of IBM machines are you using? I have a couple of ibm X345 series servers here. If your servers came with the ServRAID card, FreeBSD 4.9 will not be able to detect the card. It does not have support yet. However, 5.2 will. I ran into a similar situation and ended up replacing the IBM servRaid card with a Adapatec RAID card. I installed the card, fired up the FreeBSD install and it detected it no problem. Please let me know if anyone has a solution for this. Regards, Jagadish Hope this helps.

Questions regarding BIND
Hello everyone. I had a couple questions regarding BIND and setting up a BIND server. I need to quickly setup a BIND server on our company network. The sole purpose for this is going to be basically used as a caching name server for all of my clients on the LAN, but I also want to setup a private name system as well. (Quick note: This will go away eventually, but right now, I need to get it up, test it, and see how it works.) I'm using FreeBSD 4.9 and I have cvsup'd the ports and src tree. I made the world, and now im looking to implement BIND. The first question is the version to use of BIND. I have heard that BIND9 is much better version to use at this time. The current version of BIND installed on the system: liquid# named -v named 8.3.6-REL Mon Oct 27 14:55:35 GMT 2003 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/usr.sbin/named So the first question is, what is the best way to upgrade BIND? Would it be better to use the ports version, or to grab the source? Secondly, is regarding my setup. This server will not be setup to be public accessible. It is for our internal LAN. With that in mind, are there any How-to's for setting up BIND or getting started documents? If anyone has any suggestions, I do appreciate it. Also, is the book DNS and BIND (the O'Reilly book) pretty good? Worth buying..i may swing down to my local bookstore and buy it. I appreciate the help!

CVSUP and the refuse file
Hello everyone. I have a simple question regarding cvsup and using the refuse file. Basically, just as the handbook states, I dont want to download certain parts of the ports tree. I followed the directions in the handbook, but I seem to be downloading the specified ports still. Here is my ports-supfile: *default host=192.168.1.93 *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=. *default delete use-rel-suffix I then put the refuse file in /usr/sup with the ports I don't want downloaded. Yet, they continue to be downloaded. Also, when I was reading the ports-supfile and the standard-supfile, it appears that you can also specify certain parts that you do not want to download as well. However, I have not been able to figure that part out yet. Can anyone tell me what im missing and how to fix this? I appreciate it.

FreeBSD and sendmail...
Hello everyone, I've been hacking away at Sendmail for the past couple days, trying to learn it and set it up. Now, im using FreeBSD 4.9 and it comes with 8.12.9p2 by default. I've been reading through the Bat Book and i've been able to figure out a few things , like generating a updated sendmail.cf using the m4 processor. Which is nice, but now im trying to figure out a few other things. One thing I want to build into sendmail is smtp-auth, which requires cyrus-sasl. I went ahead and installed cyrus-sasl. After doing some research, I found out that I have to rebuild sendmail in order to get the sasl part built in. Sounds easy enough, but I'm confused on a few parts. Basically, it says that you need to create a .m4 file and then add the specifics of what you need. Once you do that, you are supposed to run the ./Build script. Well, im gathering that you need to be in directory in order to use the ./Build script, which is simple enough if you have downloaded the source. However, since I have not downloaded the source and im using the version that came with FreeBSD, I am not sure where exactly it is that I can find this ./Build script in order to rebuild sendmail. I know there is the directory /usr/share/sendmail that contains many subdirectories with information. But im a little confused on how i'm supposed to rebuild sendmail here. Anyone wanna point me in the right direction? I appreciate it.

Sendmail questions
Morning everyone. I have a few questions in general about Sendmail and a few in regards to sendmail on FreeBSD. (NOTE: I do use postfix for a lot of my mail servers, but for one particular instance, I need to use Sendmail.) My first question is about resources for learning Sendmail. I currently have the Bat book and have been using it to work my around sendmail, but the learning curve is pretty steep and im looking for other resources as well. Does anyone recommend any web sites other books that can help start the learning process for sendmail? I can be quite trivial at times. :) Second question is in regards to Sendmail on FreeBSD. I'm currently running FreeBSD 4.9 and the version that comes shipped with 4.9 is 8.12.9p I believe. I want to know what is the best way to go about upgrading sendmail on FreeBSD boxes? Is it better to build sendmail out of the ports tree? Or, is it better to d/l the source and compile it manually. Is there a difference? Is one better than the other? I appreciate the help.

Question in regards to software verification...
This is going to sound incredibly new, but i've never understood how to completely verify software that you download. For instance, a new Security Advisory was released today regarding the shmat reference counting bug One thing that I thought of when I was looking at this is the option to d/l the patch, then patch your system. I also noticed that there was, not only the patch you can download, but the .asc file which is supposed to verify the software you download. So I wanted to know the methods available that you can use to verify software that you d/l? How about .asc? I have seen that one before, but not really familiar with it. I know you can also use md5 as well as gnupg. Anyone care to take a moment and enlighten me with the steps to verify software? I appreciate it.

Installing Apache and mod_ssl
Evening everyone... Im just getting started with apache and mod_ssl. I was reading through the docs on the mod_ssl web site and it recommended downloading the source code for apache, mod_ssl and openssl. My question is that I already have openssl installed on my test server. It is currently being used for my IMAP server and was installed as a dependency. Now, reading the docs and the install (for mod_ssl), it actually wants you to point to the directory where you unzipped the source code for openssl. Since I already have openssl installed, is it possible to point it to the location on my computer? Or would I have to download the source code to a temp location and point to that location when installing mod_ssl? I apprecate the help. Cheers, Jason P.S.

Help figuring out port install...(custom install)

Proper way to upgrade OpenSSH on FreeBSD 4.9
Good morning everyone. I just had a couple of questions about upgrading OpenSSH on a FreeBSD 4.9 box. Being that 4.9 ships with: OpenSSH_3.5p1 FreeBSD-20030924, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0x0090703f I wanted to upgrade my version of OpenSSH to a more recent version. My question is, what is the proper method in doing so? I see that, currently in the ports tree, openssh 3.7.1p2 is available for install. There is also the possibility of installing from source. I would think that using the ports tree may be a very good option, as you can upgrade later with portupgrade. With that in mind, what is the best method in doing this? If I decided to use the ports tree to upgrade my openssh, do I need to do anything before hand? Backup? Save etc...(I should mention, im testing this on a test system first). I appreciate the input and advice anyone lends.

How to find the reverse on a IP address?
Morning everyone. I'm having a major brain freeze this morning. I dont recall how to find the reverse for an IP address? I need to do some testing with a few IP addresses, to ensure they have valid reverse's set, but dont recall how to check them. If I remember, you could do it with both 'nslookup' and 'dig' correct? Anyone have a moment to help me out here? In the meantime, it's man page time... I appreciate the help.

Cyrus-IMAPD users...question
I want to ask the current FreeBSD cyrus-imapd users a few questions. Was just curious for anyone out there, who is running cyrus on FreeBSD, did you install the software through the ports tree? What DB version are you running? Are you exepriencing any DB problems? I've been doing a lot of testing lately with Cyrus and FreeBSD 4.9. I've run into a few snags and im trying to gather more information. With that in mind, I was hoping to get some feedback and suggestions regarding installing Cyrus on FreeBSD...anything anyone has to offer is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Cyrus-imapd2 installed through ports question
Hello everyone. I was having a problem after I installed cyrus-imapd2 through the ports tree. Everything on the installation went well. However, im seeing a error pop up in my log that I cannot figure out. Thus, I thought i'd ask here, see if anyone had any similiar problems. Note, this is on a FreeBSD 4.9 box: Cyrus-imapd-2.1.16 Cyrus-sasl-2.1.17 BerkeleyDB-4.1.25 This is from my /var/log/auth.log Jan 5 23:54:39 obsidianbox imapd[8015]: OTP unavailable because can't read/write key database /etc/opiekeys: Permission denied Jan 5 23:54:43 obsidianbox imapd[8015]: no user in db The first one I figured out a workaround. Simple enough. The second one though, is really driving me up a wall. I'm completely baffled as to why this is showing up my logs. What is very odd, is that I can still connect and authenticate from a mail client. I also get it when I use 'imtest' for basic testing of the server. Lastly, I even get it when I connect to the 'cyradm' interface when I want to manage mailboxes. Yet, I can still login and things work. I've tried a variety of things and nothing seems to be working. Here is what I just did: Did a fresh install of FreeBSD 4.9. CVSup the ports and source tree. Navigated to /usr/ports/mail/cyrus-imapd2 port make -DWITH_BDB_VER=41 -DWITH_SKIPLIST_MBOX -DWITH_SKIPLIST_SEEN -DWITH_MURDER As I type this email, im wondering if it could have been something I did: 1.) I actually edited the Makefile and changed the BDB_VER line from 3 to 41. Looking on my command line option, I specified 41, but I did it with -DWITH. Not sure if that would cause any problems. Anyone have any ideas on why im getting the no user in db entry in my log? I'm at a loss here.

Question on port usage
Good morning everyone.
I wanted to ask a question about ports, the makefile and customizing port
installation.
I was reading through 'Absolute BSD' last night and was reading up on the
section on port's. I was unaware that with ports, you can actually edit the
makefile to add certain options at installation time. Sorta like
./configure when you install programs from source correct?
I have been working with cyrus-imapd as im going to roll out a mail server
here pretty soon.
Looking at the make file, I see this:
.if defined(WITH_BDB_VER)
USE_BDB_VER=${WITH_BDB_VER}
.else
USE_BDB_VER=3
.endif
.if ${USE_BDB_VER} == 41
LIB_DEPENDS+= db41.1:${PORTSDIR}/databases/db41
.elif ${USE_BDB_VER} == 4
LIB_DEPENDS+= db4.0:${PORTSDIR}/databases/db4
.elif ${USE_BDB_VER} == 3
LIB_DEPENDS+= db3.3:${PORTSDIR}/databases/db3
.else
BROKEN= WITH_BDB_VER must be 3, 4 or 41
.endif
CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--with-bdb-incdir=${LOCALBASE}/include/db${USE_BDB_VER} \
--with-bdb=db${USE_BDB_VER}
.if defined(WITH_SKIPLIST)
WITH_SKIPLIST_MBOX= YES
WITH_SKIPLIST_SEEN= YES
.endif
.if defined(WITH_SKIPLIST_MBOX)
CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--with-mboxlist-db=skiplist
.endif
.if defined(WITH_SKIPLIST_SEEN)
CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--with-seen-db=skiplist
.endif
.if defined(WITH_MURDER)
(There is more, but I cut it short to get to the point)
With what is listed above, you can actually specify what and how you want
the software built?
For instance:
make WITH_BDB_VER=41 WITH_SKIPLIST=YES WITH_MURDER install clean
Would setup cyrus-imapd with Berkeley db41, with_skiplist and with murder
correct? Or not?
Lastly, since there are quite a few options that you can use to compile
with most programs, is it possible to specify them somehow at the command
line when installing through the ports tree?
I'm pretty new to ports, but I really like the idea behind it. Just looking
for some clarification here.
I appreciate the help.

Re: Problems installing 4.9 on IBM Xseries server

FreeBSD +Samba +OpenLDAP as a Primary Domain controller
Good morning everyone. I'm trying to find some information about using FreeBSD as a PDC with OpenLDAP on the backend. I've setup a similar setup with Red Hat before, but with the recent changes with RH, i'd like to fully get away from Red Hat all together. With that in mind, i'd like to use FreeBSD as my Primary Domain Controller. What I wanted to know is if anyone had any experiences using a similar setup? Are there any limitations with using FreeBSD as a PDC? I've heard that FreeBSD 4.x does not support NSSwitch with OpenLDAP, but 5.x does but has issues. Anyone care to comment on this? Just wanted to gather all the information that I can before I start to work on this project. I appreciate everyones help and suggestions.

Clarification on CVS Tags
Good morning everyone. I was hoping to get some verification regarding CVS Tags. I'm pretty sure I understand, but just wanted to have my thoughts validated for me. In reading the CVS Tag page in the handbook, I understand the basics of what is going on. If I specify this in my cvsup file: RELENG_4_8 I will follow the Release Branch of 4.8, plus security patches. This would be a good choice for production servers. RELENG_4 For this, you are following the entire 4.x stable branch. In theory, if I install 4.5 and set this up in my cvsup file and run it, I will have the source tree going all the way to 4.9rc# correct? From here, you could build world? Finally: RELENG_4_8_0_RELEASE This would follow just the source, ports and docs tree up to 4.8, the frozen section, correct? Why would someone want to use this particular setup? What are the benefits? Drawbacks? Would it work in a sense that if I installed 4.4 on a server, set this up in my cvsup file to RELENG_4_8_0_RELEASE, ran the update to update sources, ports and docs, then make world: That then would make my box 4.8 ? I appreciate everyones help and insight. Just want to make sure I understand this correctly. Thanks.

Re: Clarification on CVS Tags
Thanks Matthew for your explanation. You answered a lot of my questions. Makes sense now really. Just out of curiosity, why would someone want to use: RELENG_4_8_0_RELEASE? Is there some type of benefit? One would think that the best option for production servers is: RELENG_4_8 THanks for your insight.

At the moment, RELENG_4 will get you 4.9-RC4, which will shortly become 4.9-RELEASE for a few minutes while the RELENG_4_9 branch is created, and then 4.9-STABLE. If you're willing to wait for a few days RELENG_4_9 would also be a good choice for a production server.

Not so correct. RELENG_4_8_0_RELEASE marks the state of the system sources at the point that the RELENG_4_8 branch was created, and what went onto the release CDs. Yes, you can use this tag to download sources and building world from there will get you 4.8-RELEASE. However, it's not generally useful to put this tag into a cvsup sup-file -- principally because it marks a point in time, and once you've downloaded it, there won't be any updates. So: no security patches etc. If you're tempted to use this tag, then you probably really want to use RELENG_4_8 or RELENG_4_9 instead. Note that the RELENG_4_x and RELENG_5_x tags apply only to the system sources. The one important tag you've not mentionned is '.', also known as the HEAD in cvs terms. When applied to the system sources, this gets you 5-CURRENT, but unless you're a high powered system hacker type, you don't want that. Ports and docs however, are a different matter. For those collections '.' is the only game in town. The RELENG_x_y tags simply don't exist, and if you accidentally try and cvsup ports using one of them, you'll end up deleting your whole ports tree. [The RELENG_x_y_0_RELEASE tags do exist, but exactly like the system sources they just serve to mark what goes onto the CD Roms.] Cheers, Matthew -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Marlow Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

IPFW: rc.firewall script doesn't load when loading rules from a file
I'm using FBSD 4.7 and have compiled ipfw into the kernel. My rc.conf file has the following: firewall_enable=YES firewall_script=/etc/rc.firewall firewall_type=/etc/ipfw.rules firewall_quiet=NO firewall_logging_enable=YES log_in_vain=YES icmp_drop_redirect=YES On reboot, ipfw is not reading rc.firewall before loading my rules - /etc/ipfw.rules - as I've assumed it would. I thought I could let rc.firewall take care of housekeeping ( flush and loopback rules ) before moving on to the the custom rules in ipfw.rules. Am I missing something here or is it normal to bypass rc.firewall altogether and set up a rules file with everything needed in there? All the tutorials seem to suggest that ipfw reads rc.firewall first before moving onto custom rules files, but that has not been my experience here.
