Re: Authentication with auto replication

Right now I am using NIS to share the users password between all the machines that need it: one machine is the primary server, others clients are also running a secondary server: so would a machine get isolated, it could still do authentication with the secondary server that it is running. This is all smooth and transparent, files replication is done automatically. I am considering moving away from NIS (because its lack of security). Radius could do the trick, I can run several radius servers. But then I need to manually synchronize the data between the various radius servers. Does it exists another authentication system that would do the automatic data replication like NIS does? I'm not entirely sure but I think ldap should do the trick (pam_ldap + nss_ldap).

So my script will read from this file and if the user Virtual for example has more than 5 connections he will kill all his processes that are running in background. But what what I don`t know how to do is make the script read, for example if I start the script he starts reading from users.allow, I want it to read an take each line, first taking the line 1 with user Virtual and setting to a variable the number it has near it like $allow=5, next after it finishes the process for Virtual takes Test etc. So my need would be how can I get the script to read first line, do the process I will make for it, then take the next line and do the process for that user until end of file. And also after taking the first line for example reading only the first block in it, the one with user so it can set $user=Virtual and then to take the path with the number. I would greatly apreciate if you can help me with this issue, I really need this script but didn`t know what to look in the manuals for etc. Also if you know a similar script please let me know.

Re: make -j$n buildworld : use of -j investigated
The idea behind the speedups by using nnumber of CPUs is that you use unused CPU cycles during disk activity. Obviously this works only on systems which use 'low CPU usage storage' such as SCSI, firewire or more prominently NFS for the sources. Of cause this also assumes you don't have any performance penalties due to increased swap usage... So in a 'normal' IDE environment it probably wont make a difference. Regarding your test, I'd say don't trust your results unless you have rebootet the machine betweeen the tests, otherwise the cache will mess up your results. Kind regards, Alex. Rob wrote: Laurence Sanford wrote: Rob wrote: With these simple tests, I come to the conclusion that make -j$n buildworld is best with n = number of CPUs. Does that make sense? Rob. This is what I've been telling people and using myself for years. However, I've been shot down on this several times, so I just leave everyone alone and let them do their own thing. You and I will be getting it done a little faster though. Not really faster, but higher values do not make a difference, well, as long as the extra processes do not force the use of swap. Intensified swapping because of a high -j value slows down the build considerably. I don't understand why this is reason for debate. My test has obvious results on various of my PCs, and was very quickly done: I wrote a script with a loop that built the world again and again, doing a 'touch' to a file immediately before and after the build.

You may consider using CTM, which offers daily diffs for download (check you local freebsd mirror under pub/FreeBSD/CTM/src-5/ ) but you need a defined start for that (which means a 88MB download).

Re: Frustration: the only thing mounting with NFS client :-)
Hi, I don't know what the problem in your case is, but just a few thoughts: - make sure your linux box isn't providing NFSv4, as FreeBSD does only support for v2 and 3, - to test and whether the nfs server is receiving you use showmount -e lg, it's quicker - yes, you need a portmapper running on the client too and apparently you have, its that sunrpc thingy - read mount_nfs(8) ;) I hope that helps a bit..

something fishy with this network
Hi, I have a really strange network problem and no idea what's the cause, maybe someone else can enlighten me..so here it comes: I have a FreeBSD5.3b3 gateway, this machine is NAT gateway, Webserver, DHCP and nameserver for the LAN, Mailserver, Samba, et al.. In my LAN I have a PC and a Powerbook, both configured via DHCP from the gateway. Everything works fine except I can't access certain hosts in the internet from the Powerbook or the gateway, the most famous being slashdot.org (www.clamav.net is another one). I can access other hosts without problems but from some I just don't get anything. The really strange thing is that I can access them from the PC (via NAT) running Win2k, but not from the same machine running FreeBSD or Linux. It also doesn't work from the Powerbook running MacOS-X 10.3.5, but I know it's not the browser or anything in the Powerbook because if it works if I plug the Powerbook directly into the modem. It doesn't even work on the gateway itself, so a proxy wouldn't help. The name resolution works fine, I can traceroute to the hosts on the gateway and even ping them. It seems to me as if there is something blocking the responses, when I try it with lynx all I see is HTTP request sent; waiting for response. but doesn't that mean, that the TCP handshake was already successful? Everything was working fine back with 5.2, so I'm pretty sure it's something with my gateway, but what? (No I don't remember any particular change that could cause that) I don't see anything special in the logs and I don't think I blocked anything. I don't think it's the fault of the packet filter pf, since it does not work from the gateway itself either, but just in case, here is my pf.conf (but it really can't be it, since there is no os-specific filtering in it): http://www.nagilum.org/pf.conf It's more likely to be something with my kernel so here is my kernel config: http://www.nagilum.de/cakebox If I knew what else it could be I would put it up there but it just doesn't fit...

Re: Can I NAT incoming connections?
Hi Stan, if you use ipnat to do the NAT you need something like that in your ipnat.conf: rdr tun0 0/0 port 2000-2010 - 192.168.1.20 port 2000 This would redirect the ports 2000-2010 on your gateway to the same ports on the machine 192.168.1.20 in your LAN. If you use pf it's pretty much the same: rdr on $ext_if port 2000-2010 - 192.168.1.20 port 2000 check the proper man pages (ipnat.conf(5), pf.conf(5)) for the details.

Re: Upgrading openssh
Hi Eric, The base version of openssh is updated frequently (especially if any vulnerabilities are discovered), so why bother with the port? Kind regards, Alex.

Re: OT: web serving
Hi John, The simpliest solution would probably be to let your gateway machine not just forward port 80 to your fbsd machine, but also let it forward another port (eg. 81) to your .net machine and configure IIS to serve also via this port. If that is not an option you might be able to set up something using mod_proxy, however I have no experience how to use that, so this is definitely a case of RTFM ;) Kind regards, Alex. Goodleaf, John wrote: Please reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] So I have a FreeBSD server at home serving some web pages, mostly web mail (Apache). It's running on a DSL line behind a gateway that forwards port 80 requests to it. Now here's the problem. I need to serve also from an IIS .NET server (it's for my girlfriend; don't bug me). So my question: How do I serve some things from the IIS server and some from the BSD server? Do I set up some kind of proxying? I'm sure there are three hundred solutions, but this is not something I've ever had to learn about. I'm willing to RTFM; I just want to be pointed in the right direction.

Re: pf
Not just CURRENT, you can have pf on STABLE too: http://pf4freebsd.love2party.net/ ALTQ is not ready for all interfaces but the apart from that it's fully functional. Have fun, Alex. Reed L. O'Brien wrote: I thought I read in the CURRENT docs somewhere that pf was going to be the default packet filter. Was I hallucinating? Anyone seen it? Also anyone using pf on FreeBSD 5.x? Is it fully implemented? is it as solid as ipfilter? I have never used ipfw or ipfw2 so please don't refer to them without great detail on their part of the comparisonI won't get it TIA ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: dump backup question
Hi, I assume you could script something using expect, but maybe you should consider using a real backup program like for example bacula. Kind regards, Alex.

Re:FreeBSD G3
I'd assume NetBSD is more mature than Darwin, so I'd go with NetBSD instead.. Kind regards, Alex.

Re: devel/imake-4 errors out on mkhtmlindex
Hi Johan, I just stumbled over the same problem, it turned out to be a perl problem. After installing perl from the ports one should do something like # use.perl ports this creates some symlinks to make perl apps run with the new perl. Apparently one of these links was missing and use.perl did not run, so I had to do: # ln -s /usr/local/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl5 to fix this. Now imake-4 install runs fine. Btw. XFree-4-libraries suffers from the same problem. Best regards, Alexander.
