Jails with multiple IPs?
greetings! i have a freebsd server (mother.naoshige.net) running two jails (camel.naoshige.net and box.naoshige.net): http://pastie.org/244706 my question is, how do i give box.naoshige.net access to the remaining ipsof mother.naoshige.net (well, most of them)? do i just move theifconfig aliases from mother's rc.conf to box's? thanks ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Can I Reinstall FreeBSD Over SSH?
My server is getting kinda messy, but my ISP charges too much for a reinstall. Can I do this myself over SSH? Or perhaps there are ways to make ones system as clean as a fresh install? Thanks.

Where to rent the best dedicated servers?
Sorry, I really don't know where else to ask. I've been using Staminus for a while now and I've had it with the downtime. Basically I want a place to host my Ruby on Rails / Git projects, an IRC server as well as an internet radio channel. Simple website / control panel design is ofcourse a plus. None of that cpanel bullshit though, I prefer to meddle around with simple text files the way it's meant to be done. So, layeredtech.com? rackspace.com?

Re: Where to rent the best dedicated servers?
Nah, actually, the website design (which can be used as a measure for the qualities of the rest of its services) kinda put me off.

To: Kyrre Nygård [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Guys, careful on the reply to all on this message :-) If you're looking for FreeBSD hosting, I have had very good luck with m5hosting.com. It's a small company but they host in a very nice datacenter with good connectivity, and their support is awesome. The owner (Mike) is very knowledgeable with *BSD and is one of the few hosts to offer FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and Ubuntu dedicated servers. I can highly recommend them. We migrated all our hosting needs from Rackspace to our own equipment at Quality (Globix) and have never looked back. There have been some recent high-profile outages but their reliability is still very good, we just found that it was much cheaper to host ourselves especially when we looked at adding additional equipment for redundancy like load balancers. If you don't need managed hosting I don't see any place for Rackspace. I also have a personal FreeBSD box with The Planet, things have gotten more professional there (ev1) since becoming The Planet and it's a decent host. -Patrick On 24/03/2008, Kyrre Nygård [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Sorry, I really don't know where else to ask.

Help! FreeBSD: 88.78 KBps, Linux: 624.95 KBps
Hello.
My friend is switching to Linux because FreeBSD is failing on him.
When downloading a file from a FreeBSD box and a Linux box on the same
network, the FreeBSD box got 88.78 KBps whereas the Linux got 624.95
Kbps. I have no idea what's wrong, but my man isn't really into good
information design (e.g. taking something complex and making it easy),
so his system is a mess. Maybe some of you can help me locate where the
problem's at?
Thanks guys,
Kyrre

a solution for spam controll I come across one tutorial Postfix and
SpamAssassin By Grzegorz , So I followed the foresaid tutorial .. URL
:http://ezine.daemonnews.org/200309/postfix-spamassassin.html. Hope some of
you may be the right one to help me to controll spams in my mail system.If
not please introduce me to some experts who knows this configuration so I
can touch with them. { These all are I configured in a test machine
(FreeBSD 6.0, POSTFIX running fine in this test machine ..I can send test
mails between local users in this test machine So if this setup is good
then I can install amavis-new in my server and can controll spams
effectively) So I want to check whether this configuration is correct ya
not , for that please give some inputs( imean spam i/ps and how I know
this is blocking spams .. and I want to ask you what I have to add more for
the three line in amavisd.conf HERE I AM ATTCHING THE amvisd.conf file
read_hash(\%whitelist_sender, '/var/amavis/whitelist');
read_hash(\%blacklist_sender, '/var/amavis/blacklist');
read_hash(\%spam_lovers, '/var/amavis/spam_lovers'); }I had a
FreeBSD-6.0 box with postfix and mailman working fine .The problem is that
my mailing list members including me getting lots of spams daily ..so I
really got in trouble . From the tutorial I uderstood that by
installing amavisd-new will solve the problem so I went ahead with this
.. SpamAssain razor also coming with this amavisd-new (they are integrated
with is package ). So a box with freeebsd6.0 ,with postfix clamav etc
installed in it .. (I have installed clamav before following the tutorial
through usr/ports in FreeBSD box) SO I thought this AntiVirus clamav may
be sufficent for using with amavisd-new and after this I followed the
turorial for postfix and spamassassin step by step upto section IV
Section IV - Notifications/DSN, BOUNCE/REJECT/DROP/PASS destiny,
quarantine. You may want to set these variables: $notify_sender_templ
$notify_virus_sender_templ $notify_virus_admin_templ
$notify_virus_recips_templ $notify_spam_sender_templ
$notify_spam_admin_templ What valuses to set for this variables ,there is
no such variables in the amavisd.conf file so I added this in the file and
confused of giving what values to this variables ? so I commented these 6
variables and follwed the tutorial upto section V
read_hash(\%whitelist_sender, '/var/amavis/whitelist');
read_hash(\%blacklist_sender, '/var/amavis/blacklist');
read_hash(\%spam_lovers, '/var/amavis/spam_lovers'); these three lines I
just added in amavisd.conf ( I dont know whether to add any thing else so
I added the following lines from the tutorial to the amvisd.conf file map
{ $whitelist_sender{lc($_)}=1 } (qw( freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [EMAIL
PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] )); and I went to
section vii added these 2 line $sa_local_tests_only = 0;
$sa_auto_whitelist = 1; and clamav I installed through ports so I commented
all the lines except the ones related to clamav section. then have
done # su - vscan $ touch blacklist whitelist spam_lovers $ mkdir tmp
but tmp dir is already here so its not needed to create it explicitly..
then followd spamassassin local.cf configuration as in the tutorial exactly
.. But ther is no .spamassassin dir in /var/amavis so i created
this .spamassassin dir here and then given the command below . $ touch
/var/amavis/.spamassassin/user_prefs Then razor and Bayesian learning
configured as in the tutorial then executed the command
/usr/local/sbin/amavisd debug But the debug output I dont know if it
correct ya not so I am adding the debug output here Please let me know all
my configurations correct ya not ? and in
/usr/ports/security/amavisd-new/work ther is no work directory and sample spam
files , so let me give some sample spam code so I ca test it .. NB: can
you send a sample copy of amavisd.conf , spamassassin local.cf , If my
configuration is not looking proper one in your view .

Hello! I've long wondered where this error message comes from: hostname nor servname provided, or not known So I grepped my FreeBSD source code and found out it actually belongs to BIND9.

Problem solved, I just disabled ftp-proxy (guess
I didn't need it) and started forwarding just
5 to 192.168.187.2 instead of the entire
range. 5:5 were my
net.inet.ip.portrange.hifirst and
net.inet.ip.portrange.hilast, so the way things
are now, ftpd has free access to 53334:5, and it seems quite content.

Broken partition table
Hello! My partition table is messed up. I have a 150 gigabyte S-ATA hard drive, with a single NTFS partition running Windows XP. I've been running gpart /dev/ad0 for the last 14 hours now and it's not saying anything. I just want to get my data back. I don't care if I have to reinstall everything. How it all came about is a long story. I ran a second hard disk drive, with FreeBSD, and GRUB so it could do my dual booting. But I needed the space, so I formatted it to NTFS from Windows XP. That's it really, after that, it wouldn't boot. Couldn't load NTLDR. That's when I tried a lot of different things. boot0cfg, fixmbr and fixboot. I even managed changing its system ID type to FAT using fdisk -- I wasn't thinking clearly -- I was in deep shock. I have also tried gpart from Knoppix, but all its guesses came out as zero. I've also tried running gpart from Insert, another Linux distribution, but it totally freaked out about some I/O stuff. Linux uses SCSI drivers for S-ATA though. Is my only choice now to keep running gpart, even if it will run forever? All suggestions welcome, please!

I am such a fool! How to recover my data?
Hello, thanks for checking this out! My hard disk and I are in a rather tight situation right now. I believe my partition table's system ID is messed up. Other things are probably messed up too, however I have not done anything which would constitute a format of my data -- hence I hope that whatever data is still there. I believe I've been a fool. The hard drive in question is hard drive 1, a 150gb S-ATA that ran Windows XP and NTFS. Hard drive 2, same type, ran FreeBSD and UFS. I was lacking space in Windows, so I decided to format hard drive 2 into NTFS. I right clicked on My Computer, went to Manage, then Disk Management and then I did what I was suppose to do. Everything went fine. I backed up some data to hard drive 2, which was now NTFS, and enjoyed my session a little bit more before I rebooted. But then, NTLDR was missing. I figured this was because my hard drive 2 had GRUB installed allowing me to dual boot between FreeBSD and Windows. But since it was now NTFS, the MBR now suffered problems. So I figured all I had to do was to remove the FreeBSD MBR, so silly me booted the FreeBSD installation CD and pretended to do an installation, went into fdisk, selected Use entire disk, set it to system ID 6, which is FAT, and then selected Standard boot loader. I don't know what I was thinking, I hadn't eaten all day. A few steps later, the process failed, after all I didn't actually want to format or install anything. Nothing happened. Next I played around with boot0cfg -B on /dev/ad0 and /dev/ad1. Nothing happened there either. Then I went into the Windows XP setup's recovery console and did a fixmbr as well as fixboot. Still, nothing happened. I am currently running gpart /dev/ad0 from FreeSBIE, hoping I'll get lucky. Is there any chance at all I may rescue my data?

I forgot to mention that yeah, everything thinks my hard drive is FAT now. I disconnected hard drive 2 long time ago too, so it's out of the picture.

Script to fetch Wikipedia text
Hey!
I'm involved in a few research projects, and like to keep my
information well organized. I usually get most of it from Wikipedia,
however, I hate printing HTML articles to PDF. I'd rather want them
in pure, well laid out text. And I'm sure others would too. Being
able to master ones knowledge provides a warm inner peace.
Hence I've tried dumping the output from text browsers such as w3m,
elinks, lynx etc. I am, however, only interested in the articles
themselves, not their links, views, toolboxes, search bars, other
available languages and so on. I tried running a whole bunch of
regular expressions over the output, but that really felt like the hard way.
So some guy gave me this:
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require 'rexml/document'
require 'cgi'
require 'tempfile'
require 'open-uri'
url = 'http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Export/' +
CGI::escape(ARGV.join( ).strip.squeeze(' ').tr(' ',
'_')).gsub(/%3[Aa]/,':').gsub(/%2[Ff]/,'/').gsub(/%23/,'#')
open(url) { |f|
puts REXML::XPath.first(REXML::Document::new(f.class == Tempfile ?
f.open : f), '//text').text
}
Which seem to take advantage of Wikipedia's special export feature,
which really seems cool. However there's a few issues. First, the
script looks kinda complex. I'm sure there's a simpler way of writing
it. Second, it does not yet output the kind of pure and well laid out
text as it should. For instance, on
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Hurd, it outputs:

'''The GNU Hurd''' is a computer operating system [[Kernel (computer
science)|kernel]]. It consists of a set of [[Server
(computing)|servers]] (or [[daemon (computer software)|daemons]], in
[[Unix]]-speak) that work on top of either the [[GNU Mach]]
[[microkernel]] or the [[L4 microkernel family|L4 microkernel]];
together, they form the [[kernel (computer science)|kernel]] of the
[[GNU]] [[operating system]]. It has been under development since
[[1990]] by the [[GNU]] Project and is distributed as [[free
software]] under the [[GNU General Public License|GPL]]. The Hurd
aims to surpass [[Unix]] kernels in functionality, security, and
stability, while remaining largely compatible with them. This is done
by having the Hurd track the [[POSIX]] specification, while avoiding
arbitrary restrictions on the user.
HURD is an indirectly [[recursive acronym]], standing for HIRD of
[[Unix]]-Replacing [[Daemon (computer software)|Daemons]], where
HIRD stands for HURD of Interfaces Representing Depth. It is also
a play of words to give [[herd]] of [[wildebeest|gnus]] reflecting
how it works.
==Development history==
Development on the GNU operating system began in 1984 and progressed
rapidly. By the early 1990s, the only major component missing was the kernel.
Development on the Hurd began in [[1990]], after an abandoned kernel
attempt started from the finished research [[Trix (kernel)|Trix]]
operating system developed by Professor [[Steve Ward (Computer
Scientist)| Steve Ward]] and his group at [[Massachusetts Institute
of Technology| MIT]]'s [[Laboratory for Computer Science]] (LCS).
According to [[Thomas Bushnell| Michael (now T
homas) Bushnell]], the initial Hurd architect, their early plan was
to adapt the [[BSD]] 4.4-Lite kernel and, in hindsight, It is now
perfectly obvious to me that this would have succeeded splendidly and
the world would be a very different place today.ref{{cite web |

due to a lack of cooperation from the [[University of California,
Berkeley|Berkeley]] programmers, [[Richard Stallman]] decided instead
to use the [[Mach microkernel]], which subsequently proved
unexpectedly difficult, and the Hurd's development proceeded slowly.

Why does a 15.5gb partition show up as 500MB?
Hello, When mounting the 15,5GB root partition of an old 17GB ATA harddrive, df -h tells me it is only 479MB. This is what I did: I installed FreeBSD on the 17GB ATA harddrive, so I later could copy some files onto it from my main 150GB S-ATA. The plan is to retire the 17GB ATA at this Pentium 133MHz over at the form. So I plugged the 17GB ATA into my Pentium 3,2GHz's DVD-ROM IDE cable, which is the only IDE cable available other than that of my DVD-RW. I installed FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE using the network install via boot floppies. I made a 1500MB swap partition, and the remaining 15,5GB into root /. I know jamming all that space into one single partition is a big no no, but for this purpose I let it slide. FreeBSD, minimum installatino, installed without any difficulties. Then it was time to copy the files I needed from the 150GB S-ATA. I can only boot the 150GB S-ATA, the 17GB ATA doesn't want to boot as long as the 150GB S-ATA is attached. I managed to mount the 17GB ATA, however df -h informs me that it is only 479MB? How can this be? It might be a geometry issue, yeah? But how do I fix it?

Re: Code beautifiers, anyone?
At 14:31 25.08.2006, Matti J. Karki wrote:
No doubt :)
There's no comments in the code, because usually my scripts are
disposable. As I said, I do those case by case.
The code should be quite clear for most parts, but the bunch of
regexps at the beginning of the code do the following things:
inbuffer = re.sub('\n +', '\n', inbuffer) # This strips all spaces
from the beginning of every line of code.
inbuffer = re.sub('\t+', '', inbuffer) # This does the same for tab
characters.
inbuffer = re.sub('\) *?\n\{', ') {', inbuffer) # This moves all curly
braces where I want them to be, i.e. at the end of the line.
inbuffer = re.sub('\) *?{', ') {', inbuffer) # This removes all extra
spaces between the closing bracket ) and the opening curly bracket {.
inbuffer = re.sub('else *?\n{', 'else {\n', inbuffer) # This fixes
curly brackets in the else clauses.
inbuffer = re.sub('{ *?(.+?\n)', '{\n\g1', inbuffer) # Sometimes
there is code where curly brackets are all in the same line and the
contents of the brackets are between the brackets. This moves the
contents to new line.
inbuffer = re.sub('(\n.+?)}', '\g1\n}', inbuffer) # This takes care
of the closing bracket at the above case.
inbuffer = re.sub('\n +', '\n', inbuffer) # This just cleans up all
spaces that may appear when arranging the code.
The rest of the script is just a simple indenting machine, which
indents the code using four spaces as a single level of indentation.
The indentation will be placed after every newline character and
indentation will be increased and decreased based on the occurrences
of curly brackets.
So, basically (and now I'm just trying to remember from top of my
head, it's been some time, I dealt with this particular source code)
the script will do the following steps with the code:
step 1) the original piece of code
int main()
{
char *c = {'a', 'b', 'c'};
print(hello, world);
if (true)
{
printf(ok);
}
else
{
printf(umm...);
}
}
step 2) stripping all indentation
int main()
{
char *c = {'a', 'b', 'c'};
print(hello, world);
if (true)
{
printf(ok);
}
else
{
printf(umm...);
}
}
step 3) applying the rest of the regexp rules and indenting with the for loop
int main() {
char *c = {
'a', 'b', 'c'
};
print(hello, world);
if (true) {
printf(ok);
}
else {
printf(umm...);
}
}
Hope this clears my script a little bit.
-Matti
Very amazing man, I'm impressed by your enthusiasm for correctness.
In your script, do these comments look alright then?
(I simplified them a bit)
inbuffer = re.sub('\) *?\n\{', ') {', inbuffer) # Move curly brackets
to the end of lines
inbuffer = re.sub('\) *?{', ') {', inbuffer) # Remove spaces between
closing brackets and opening curly brackets
inbuffer = re.sub('else *?\n{', 'else {\n', inbuffer) # Fix curly
brackets in `else' clauses
inbuffer = re.sub('{ *?(.+?\n)', '{\n\g1', inbuffer) # Break up the
content of curly brackets
inbuffer = re.sub('(\n.+?)}', '\g1\n}', inbuffer) # Take care of
closing brackets from the above rule
inbuffer = re.sub('\n +', '\n', inbuffer) # Strip trailing whitespace
inbuffer = re.sub('\t+', '', inbuffer) # Strip trailing tabs
And also, I noticed you put '\n +', '\n', inbuffer twice,
is one enough like in the above example?
Thank you man, your script has taught me a lot already about Python.
I brought this case up at the OpenBSD mailinglist as well
and they pointed me to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_Normal_Form
So now I have two more steps in my search for the perfect tools to
beautify all my code:
01 Design a normal form for all my languages
02 Convert your script to Ruby
After that, I can't wait to run it over the FreeBSD codebase and watch
the added value it gets. Then I can start selling the script to governments.
Just kidding :) But it would be nice to reverse engineer all those commercial
code parsers that hunt for bugs and create my own that I'll eventually
hook up with some artificial intelligence.

Without getting into a way-OT my favorite language is better'n yours flamefest, if you really want inspiration for the pure shell way, look at ports/sysutils/ezjail and its flavours framework for templating new jails with users, ports, post-install scripts, etc. All shell. Man, just the words you gave me has already made my mouth all watery. I'll surely check it out, and thanks a whole lot.

This means that - for example - all lines with indentation inside the code comments will be messed up (remember, usually a tab character equals 8 spaces and I'm removing tabs all together). This leads me to my point: my code does not handle multi-line comments at all. They may look messed-up. A single curly bracket inside of a comment will throw the indentation code out of sync. Also the code does not address line breaks \, so for example the macro definitions will not be indented correctly. So, it will take some additional work to be able to run the script without any side effects.

Code beautifiers, anyone?
Hello people, I'm looking for the best ways to create a line of code beautification (reformatting) scripts -- one for C, one for Ruby, one for Bash and one for web development languages like XHTML, XML, CSS, PHP and Ajax. Whether as frontline warriors or household maids, they would ensure proper indentation, linebreaks, spaces, tabs and so forth. Can anybody help me? My studies of architectural science has taught me to pay extreme care to the correction of details, and I now wish to apply these teachings to all my code. I find myself always reformatting whatever my associates give me. Not that they're bad programmers, they just care more about the code itself rather than its structure, and I dare not argue with that. When their code is messy, however, my heart feels messy and I can't get any sleep. I wish to be in full control of my code beautifiers. That is, I wish to have them as simple and meaningful as possible. Give me an easy Bash over a complex Ruby any day. There's a lot of messed up tools out there. Companies with flashy websites just doing this for the money. So apart from the bullshit, I've managed to spot out the Ruby Beautifier and GNU Indent as two worthy code beautifiers. However I get the feeling they are more complex than they ought to be, and if less is more, my search will have to continue.

For example Tcl, Python or Perl. I have to deal with all sorts of source code and I have noticed that - for me - the easiest path is to first study the source code and then create a simple script to beautify the code. It takes less time than trying to find some suitable tool, which may not even product exactly the style I want. Very well said man, this is indeed my goal too! Perhaps you could share with us whatever scripts you've written?
