Re: Mail back-up system
Since every mail is stored in its own file (versus concatenation in Mbox), it's much cheaper to backup. Just copy all the new/touched files, not all your mail. Yes, that's a good point. Because these files are *already* backups, I assumed that they wouldn't be backed up themselves, but that may well not be the case. Actually, as I have an Amanda server floating around, I also do tape archive of the back-up :)) Olivier ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: HDTV card for FreeBSD
Is there any HDTV card which works for FreeBSD? If I am not confused on what is HDTV, sort of satellite receiver card to get TV on your PC, there is a company http://udgateway.com/ that sells embeded systems based on FreeBSD that does that sot of things, so the drivers should exists somewhere.

Re: Mail back-up system
I guess if they had deleted it before the next rsync, you could just copy the individual mails back to the main, or have a script/trigger to do that. What if they deleted the email before it got a chance to get synched? However, in this case, it sounds like error exists between keyboard and chair... But that is of course the kind of problem I want to address :) Olivier ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: need some advice on our cisco routers..
3. How do you secure your cisco routers in your office?? Our director said that we should look for best practices in securing our routers. The very first step would be to limit where from you can telnet to the router. There is no good reason why whole internet could telnet to the router. The following shoud do access-list 30 permit 192.168.0.0 ! one unique machine ins9ide my network access-list 30 deny any log line vty 0 4 access-class 30 in exec-timeout 0 0 login local refuse-message ^Cnauthorized access prohibited ^C 1. Is it possible to think that they still haven't cracked the enable password yet or they already know it and just silently been playing with our router?? What for? If you are a hacker, what would you do if you got an access to an ISP's router??:-) If you have a back-up of your configuration, you can check if anything has been changed. You can alos check the config change time stamp in Cisco show run. In any case, play it safe, restore the last running configuration and change the enable password. The router could be a good sniffing point to grab hold on some username/password from the ISP customers.

Mail back-up system
Hi, As a sys-admin, I am often bugged by users who had mistakenly deleted some very important email, and could I recover it from the tape back-up. I try to explain to them that back-up is only run once per 24 hours and maybe their message arrived since the last run, and that tapes are there to recover disk crash, not user bad moves, it still eats up quite some amount of my time (and it is a stupid task). So I came up with a system whereby messages are duplicated on a second server and users can use a web page to browse that second server and recover emails. Kust in case someone maybe interested, the system is explained there: http://www.cs.ait.ac.th/laboratory/email/mailback.shtml Bests, Olivier ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Kaspersky AND FreeBSD
In this search I found out there are Kaspersky anti spam and Kaspersky anti virus for UNIX-like. What do you think about this? We have been usiong Kaspersky for 3 or 4 years without any trouble. Once a worm amanged to get through, but at that time it got through all antiviruses we could try (seemed it was specially crafted for me?) We have seen a dramatic fall of infected machines since the email are checked on the server, I am not aware of any machine that got infected that way since then. Kaspersky has a daemonized version, so it is reasonably fast. And the price for education is OK. I don't use the anti spam.

Re: Optimize shell
Thanks for the suggestions.
I am setting up a machine to work as a mail back-up. It receives copy
of every email for every user. When the disk is almost full, I want to
delete older messages up to a total size of 40.
Going to database storing was a good idea, but not an issue as the
system is already running. Using delete functions from other tools
could be a solution though I doubt it goes accross all the users.
Using bash could be a way to go, as using locate (possible, but then
it would need a second command to get the file size, so I am not sure
that it would save much).
And my assumption was wrong, the most time consumption was in the sed,
not in the sort. In fact I did not need the sed as I could split the
fields on the / for sort and pick up the correct argument in
awk. Using xargs also speed up the things a small bit.
Here is the final solution:
mailbackroot66: cat func5
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/find /home -mindepth 5 -ls | /usr/bin/grep /Maildir/cur/ |
/usr/bin/sort -t/ -n +6 | /usr/bin/awk '{sum+=$7; if (sum 2) print
$11;}'|xargs cat /dev/null
mailbackroot67: time ./func5
0.806u 3.086s 0:35.69 10.8% 67+405k 9864+21io 5pf+0w
And the original one:
mailbackroot68: cat func1
#!/bin/sh
for i in `/usr/bin/find /home -mindepth 5 -ls | /usr/bin/grep /Maildir/cur/ |
/usr/bin/sed -E 's/^ *[0-9]+ +[0-9]+ +[-rwx]+ +[0-9]+ +[^ ]+ +[^ ]+ +([0-9]+)
+.*(\/home\/.*\/)([0-9]+)(\..*)$/\3 \1 \2\3\4/' | /usr/bin/sort -n +0 -1 |
/usr/bin/awk '{sum+=$2; if (sum 2) print $3;}'`; do
cat $i /dev/null
done
mailbackroot69: time ./func1
223.665u 12.341s 4:53.42 80.4% 48+315k 9100+13io 0pf+0w
35 seconds is OK.

Original question:
I am setting up a machine to work as a mail back-up. It receives copy
of every email for every user. When the disk is almost full, I want to
delete older messages up to a total size of 40.
Messages are stored in /home/sub_home/user/Maildir/cur in maildir
format.
Message name is of the form 1137993135.86962_0.machine.cs.ait.ac.th
where the first number is a Unix time stamp.
I came up with the following sheel to find the messages of all users,
sort them by date and compute the total size up to 4gB.
for i in `/usr/bin/find /home -mindepth 5 -ls | /usr/bin/grep /Maildir/cur/ |
/usr/bin/sed -E 's/^ *[0-9]+ +[0-9]+ +[-rwx]+ +[0-9]+ +[^ ]+ +[^ ]+ +([0-9]+)
+.*(\/home\/.*\/)([0-9]+)(\..*)$/\3 \1 \2\3\4/' | /usr/bin/sort -n +0 -1 |
/usr/bin/awk '{sum+=$2; if (sum 40) print $3;}'`; do
/bin/rm $i
done
find /home -mindepth 5 -ls makes a list of all files and directory at
a depth of 5 and more because my directory structure is so that
messages are store at level 6
grep /Maildir/cur/ because courrierimapo tends to put things in other
directories it creates when it needs too
These two commads give me a list of the form:
13974908 -rw---1 on staff3124 Jan 27
15:23 /home/java/on/Maildir/cur/1138350182.1413_1.mackine.cs.ait.ac.th
where 3124 is the size
The sed command transforms the line into date, size, filname:
1137994623 2466 /home/java/on/Maildir/cur/1137994623.87673_0.mail.cs.ait.ac.th
Then it sorts on the date field and awk is used to sum on the size
field and print the filename until the total of 4gB is reached.
That works OK, but it is damn slow: for 200 users, 7800 messages and
302MB it takes something like 3+ minutes... For 25 GB of email it
should take more than 4 hours, this is too much.
It sems that the long part is the sort:
without sort
time /usr/bin/find /home -mindepth 5 -ls | /usr/bin/grep /Maildir/cur/ |
/usr/bin/sed -E 's/^ *[0-9]+ +[0-9]+ +[-rwx]+ +[0-9]+ +[^ ]+ +[^ ]+ +([0-9]+)

cat /dev/null
0.281u 0.366s 3:44.75 0.2% 39+1042k 0+0io 0pf+0w
Any idea how to speed up the things?

Hi Mathieu,
useless to do -r while you search only files (-type f)
the delete function of find seems more apropriate to me
But the -exec mode is more general (understand you put whatever
command you want there) and beside, the first question was refeering
to a syntax using {}.

Re: RAS
Can freeBSD be used as RAS server for windows boxes? Yes I used to do that, having pluged in an interface card with 2 serial ports (for a total of 4 ports and 4 modems) The thing was to configure PPP to use Chap authentication (but you need to keep clear text password on your RAS machine). It worked OK, even if from time to time the connection was not released properly, making a port unavailable. That's a poorman solution anyway, as you cannot expect faster access than 33kbps. I cannot give much more details than that as I replaced that machine with a real RAS a couple of years back, that real RAS being an embeded machine running... FreeBSD (version 1.something!)

Slow file transfer
Hello, I am suffering from slow file transfer on a FreeBSD machine.

Router2 has 128MB ram while Router1 has only 64MB. Both machine load are close to 0.00 When I do a file transfer from Router1 to sFTP server (through Router2) I get a transfer rate of 511 KB/s. When I do a file transfer from Router2 to sFTP server (one less hop) I can only get 87 KB/s. The transfer rates remains the same all along the day (this is not due at a specific traffic high load at the time I gathered data). While the setup has not changed for months, the slowness is very recent. I must admitthat I am clueless about what could be the reason and help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Slow file transfer
Could be a duplex mismatch. Look for collision statistics.

Hi, I am SSH'ing to a FreeBSD machine and enable X11 forwarding. Everything was working fine untill I rebooted this morning.

Re: Network strangeness only with incoming email
Only during _incoming_ email there are a lot of network errors/pauses, including 'tcp retransmission' errors. This seems to cause sendmail Do you receive your email straigh from internet, or do you receive email from a gateway, say at your ISP? If there is a mail server that is in charge of receiving all your email before forwarding to you,the problem could lie between that machine and yours.

Re: Fast diff command for large files?
We do the mirroring by running a program that dumps the FoxPro tables out as tab-delimited files. Thus far, we'd been using PostgreSQL's copy from command to read those files into the database. In reality, though, a very, very small percentage of rows in those tables actually change. So, I wrote a program that takes the output of diff and converts it into a series of I think the problem could be considered another way. if you have access to the legacy/FoxPro application, it should be modifed to add a timestamp to each reccord modification. Then you could only dump those reccords that were modified since the last change. That seems to me the only long term viable solution that could sizeup nicely with your set of data. Not to mention that once implemented it would be much much faster.

Re: Printing quota ?
LPRng calls the script with user information as command line options and the document on STDIN. The script determines the user from the command line option and counts pages in postscript documents by parsing STDIN. If the document doesn't look enough like postscript it is discarded. Windows users have a hard time getting it right. What I wrote will query the printer for page count before and afterthe job.

Re: Printing quota ?
What I wrote will query the printer for page count before and afterthe job. We tried that also, however, then you have problems if printerjobs are cancelled halfway. For us it is OK to forget to count a job from time to time, as the filter queries the printer before and after, the next job will start a new count anyway. Also, the sanity check works against accepting print jobs that will cause the the printer to print endless pages with strange characters untill it runs out of paper or the job is cancelled. We had a lot of those because of misconfigured windows machines. Well, I have my guy install the printers on the machines for the users, so they use the right driver :) Olivier ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Imap-uw and openssl certificate
Common Name (FQDN of your server) []: fstaals.net
The first answer that come to my mind is that your IMAP{ server is
certainly NOT called fstaals.net, but it should rather be
imap.fstaals.net or mail.fstaals.net or something.
You must put the exact name of your server, as it is known by DNS and
reverse DNS.

Re: Installing 2nd CPU on SMP board
Well, I have dmesg output and the output from dmidecode. I may be dense but I don't see the sSpec number in the output. Can it be derived from these data? from what I understand you get the sSpec number from CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 2.80GHz (2793.01-MHz 686-class CPU) Origin = GenuineIntel Id = 0xf34 Stepping = 4 ^^ Features=0xbfebfbffFPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,CLFLUSH,DTS,ACPI,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,SS,HTT,TM,PBE use that figure to lookup in Intel chart like http://download.intel.com/design/Xeon/specupdt/30240216.pdf and using that f34 and the speed you should find the sSpec in the left most column. Another sure way is to take the CPU from the socket. On the side with the pins you have 3 printed lines, sSpec number is the first word of the middle line. Now that I am considering upgradding 2 machines, I seriously think about buying a pair of matching Xeon for each board as it has been suggested earlier. But at same time I had my hardware vendor try to sortout the problem for me with Intel (1 year old CPU, not manufactured any more).

I am building a new system and plan to use two 300GB drives in a raid 1 configuration. However, I have read where fbsd can't boot from a raid drive, but it is not clear why. Is that hardware raid or software raid? Hardware RAID there is no restriction as FreeBSD will see your RAID set as one single big disk. Software RAID, I think it is feasible (I remember reading something about that) with some tricks (at boot time the boot disk should be seen un RAIDed until the RAID software is activated or something like that).

Re: securing FreeBSD
or by setting the actual hdd to secondary and plug an other primary hdd Once the hardware is compromised, it is really tricky to keep secure. If you cannot protect your hardware (secure room) then your hard disk has to auto protect itself: encrypt the data, and have no saved password on the disk itself (means you will have to enter a passphrase each time your disk is mounted). I'd have 2 physical disks, one for the system and one for the data. The system disk is cleartext, the data is encrypted. And I'd have the private key on a removable device (like USB for exeample). Be sure that your system does not dump any memory image in case of panic. Another solution (expensive and only valid for a limited amount of data) have a RAM disk (and secure your electric power supply). An intruder would have to turn off the power to grab the memory. Doing so he would delete the data...

Thanks Titus, no, you're misunderstanding regoff_t or printf. I definitely misunderstand printf.

Using regex(3)
Hi,
I must missunderstand how to use regex(3).
From what I read in the man page, pmatch[i].rm_so is the begining of
the i-th match in the regular expression and pmatch[i].rm-so is the
end.
So if I try to match the regex a(.)c on the string abc I should
have: pamtch[1].rm_so=1 and pmatch[1].rm_eo=2, that is matching the
substring b.
I have run the short programm as follow:
#include sys/types.h
#include regex.h
#include stdio.h
main() {
int ret;
regex_t *preg;
size_t nmatch;
regmatch_t * pmatch;
char * buffer=a(.)c;
char * string=abc;
preg=(regex_t*)malloc(sizeof(regex_t));
if(preg==NULL) exit(-1);
ret=regcomp(preg, buffer, REG_EXTENDED);
printf(number of substrings=%d\n, preg-re_nsub);
pmatch=(regmatch_t *)malloc(5000); /* make it big enough */
if (pmatch==NULL) exit(-1);
nmatch=0;
ret=regexec(preg, string, nmatch, pmatch, 0);
printf(return from regexec=%d\nnmatch=%d\np0.so=%d p0.eo=%d\np1.so=%d
p1.eo=%d\np2.so=%d p2.eo=%d\np3.so=%d p3.eo=%d\n, ret, nmatch,
pmatch[0].rm_so, pmatch[0].rm_eo, pmatch[1].rm_so, pmatch[1].rm_eo,
pmatch[2].rm_so, pmatch[2].rm_eo, pmatch[3].rm_so, pmatch[3].rm_eo );
nmatch=1;
ret=regexec(preg, string, nmatch, pmatch, 0);
printf(return from regexec=%d\nnmatch=%d\np0.so=%d p0.eo=%d\np1.so=%d
p1.eo=%d\np2.so=%d p2.eo=%d\np3.so=%d p3.eo=%d\n, ret, nmatch,
pmatch[0].rm_so, pmatch[0].rm_eo, pmatch[1].rm_so, pmatch[1].rm_eo,
pmatch[2].rm_so, pmatch[2].rm_eo, pmatch[3].rm_so, pmatch[3].rm_eo );
nmatch=2;
ret=regexec(preg, string, nmatch, pmatch, 0);
printf(return from regexec=%d\nnmatch=%d\np0.so=%d p0.eo=%d\np1.so=%d
p1.eo=%d\np2.so=%d p2.eo=%d\np3.so=%d p3.eo=%d\n, ret, nmatch,
pmatch[0].rm_so, pmatch[0].rm_eo, pmatch[1].rm_so, pmatch[1].rm_eo,
pmatch[2].rm_so, pmatch[2].rm_eo, pmatch[3].rm_so, pmatch[3].rm_eo );
}
And the results I get are:
banyanon33: ./test
number of substrings=1
return from regexec=0
nmatch=0
p0.so=0 p0.eo=0
p1.so=0 p1.eo=0
p2.so=0 p2.eo=0
p3.so=0 p3.eo=0
return from regexec=0
nmatch=1
p0.so=0 p0.eo=0
p1.so=3 p1.eo=0
p2.so=0 p2.eo=0
p3.so=0 p3.eo=0
return from regexec=0
nmatch=2
p0.so=0 p0.eo=0
p1.so=3 p1.eo=0
p2.so=1 p2.eo=0
p3.so=2 p3.eo=0
banyanon34:
Both on 4.10 releng and 5.3 releng, rm_eo is always empty and the
result is pushed in the next rm_so.
Any help appreciated.

Re: printing
how can i print a document in a windows shared
I do that using samba, only samba client is needed.
Olivier
can you explaime how?
0) I installed samba from the ports /usr/ports/net/samba
1) I have a shared printer on my windows machine, the printer share is
named APPLE, as I use win2k, the printer is accessible to the user
printer, the win2k machine name is olivier. I set-up a password
to protect my win2k printer.
For win98, it would be the same, but there is not user.
2) I create an entry in /etc/printcap, the entry is like:
# printers attached to users machine (Windows)
on-printer:\
:sd=/var/spool/on-printer:\
:mx=0:rs:sh:\
:lp=/dev/null:\
:if=/usr/spool/smb-printer:
3) I create the directory /var/spool/on-printer
4) I create the configuration file /var/spool/on-printer/.config that
contains (please put the password as defined in 1):
server = olivier
service = APPLE
password = ***
user = printer
domain = olivier
Note that server and domain are the same!
5) I installed the script /usr/spool/smb-printer. This script works
for win98 and win2k. It does a little bit of file coding, changing
CR into CRLF for the files that are not PostScript or PCL.
#!/usr/bin/perl
require flush.pl;
## $logfile=smb-print.log;

sendmail update
Hi, I have 2 questions about the update procedure and sendmail. 1) where is the equivalent of sendmail-x.y.z/devtools/Site/site.config.m4 in FreeBSD installation of sendmail? I need to add some features to the site.config.m4 file to build the version of sendmail I want. So far, I have to rebuild sendmail by hand, independently from FreeBSD, after each system update. 2) I have a patch that I want to apply to sendmail source tree, before I build sendmail. I would like to have that patch applied automatically to /usr/src/contrib/sendmail before it builds. How do i do that?

Re: sendmail update
Take a peek at /usr/ports/mail/Sendmail/Makefile. There are tons of flags to be thrown, and I'm willing to bet that you can make a couple of tweaks there to get the result you wish. If it's just throwing it on the command line, you might want to consider putting the flags in /etc/make.conf. But then, how that port/sendmail will interact with the system sendmail. When re-installing the system, will I have to install the port again?

Re: Apache libraries/modules
Did you do a make install No problem so far, then I try to: # work/apache_1.3.33/src/httpd -t -DSSL I think you need to do make install then httpd should be in /usr/local/sbin/httpd and the libraries should also be int he right place. Whether there is an additional change/setting I am not sure, but I do think that trying to run a port from the work directory is unlikely to work. Yes I did (in a previous install that I did not deinstall). But anyway I found it: the directive ServerRoot in apache conf file taht is a bit more than the place where to find the log and conf file. It is also where to find the modules...

Re: Ethernet over FireWire: How?
Hi Rob, Can someone give me a layman's answer to how I can use the firewire as the second ethernet card? The backside of the computer has a socket labeled '1394', but this is not a RJ-45 connector. Do I need a converter cable from firewire to RJ-45? I'd say that Ethernet over Firewire is really what it says it is, Ethernet is encapsulated in Firewire, so at the other end you also need to attach to a Ethernet over Firewire device. Beside, Firewire is much slower than Ethernet I guess. If you build a router for your lab, I'd recommend that you buy proper Ethernet cards, they will prove much more reliable (last longer, deliver higher bandwidth, attach nicely to some weird Ethernet switches...) than cheap solution like over Firewire. Is it worth saving 50$ on a machine that is supposed to handle a good share of your lab infrastructure?

Re: Channel Bonding on FreeBSD without peer support
However, these approaches require support from the other peer (the ISP), which is not possible in my situation. I would say that no solution exist that do not have the colaboration of the other part. You can do as much load balancing on your end, but that is your ISP that will decide to send one packet on one line and the next packet on the other line. There would always be a way to affect few machines of your LAN to one of the line and the rest to the other line, but that will never be full load balancing.

You want to install apache13-modssl. I'd install apache, then install php4-extensions, then install mod_php4.

How would I upgrade just one package part of the core like that? Or multiple ones for that matter. Can you use the ports/packages system?
