You sure? IDENT has nothing to do with DNS, and I don't know of any program that does an IDENT query solely if DNS data is not available. I can't see why that would make any sense. What is most likely the OP's root problem is that he's sending e-mail from a machine that's on the other side of a firewall that blocks IDENT traffic but doesn't actively reject it. So sendmail has to sit around and wait for the query to time out. Allow me to clarify the scenario. The intent is for a local Windows box to relay outgoing SMTP through the FreeBSD box. Both machines are on the same LAN segment. No intervening Firewalls (except software firewalls on the boxes). Without the IDENT timeout, this is the traffic.

Sendmail Five Second Greeting Delay
When I connect to sendmail on a local interface, sendmail responds to the connection with its 220 greeting immediately. If I connect to sendmail from another machine on my (home) LAN, sendmail delays five seconds before sending the greeting. I would like it to respond immediately. A quick search turned up a greet_delay feature in sendmail that would cause this type of behavior. To the best of my knowledge, I do not use this feature. Just to be sure, I tried to explicitly enable it with both a default 0 second timeout and an explicit 0 second access rule. This did not the resolve the issue. I am at a loss. What could be going on?

Re: Lost audio after new Video card installation

I was attempting to upgrade a Gateway GT5220 PC. The machine was
running FreeBSD-7.2 successfully. The sound system was functioning
correctly and gMplayer and Mplayer worked fine. The machine was using a
nVidia GeForce 6150 LE on-board card. I installed a nVidia GeForce GT
220 card. The old on-board card did not support DVI.
Now, the video is fine; however, there is no audio. Mplayer and
gMplayer both freeze when attempting to play or view anything.
I have no idea how to debug this. Since I did not touch the audio, I
cannot figure it out.
I did have a script that ran upon boot-up:
/sbin/sysctl hw.snd.pcm0.vchans=4
/sbin/sysctl dev.pcm.0.play.vchans=4
/sbin/sysctl dev.pcm.0.rec.vchans=4
/sbin/sysctl hw.snd.maxautovchans=16
mixer vol 100:100 pcm 100:100 speaker 100:100 line 100:100 mic 0:0 cd
100:100 =rec mic
Previously, it ran without incident. Now, it produces this output:
sysctl: unknown oid 'hw.snd.pcm0.vchans'
dev.pcm.0.play.vchans: 4 - 4
sysctl: dev.pcm.0.rec.vchans: Operation not supported by device

I would really appreciate any assistance I could get. I really would
like the audio to work on this machine again.
Try setting the folllowing sysctl knob:
hw.snd.default_unit=1
You will also have to change the dev.pcm.0 to dev.pcm.1 in your script.
If 1 doesn't work, try 2.

Re: slowloris, accf_http and POST requests
On June 22, 2009, Ruben de Groot wrote: Can enybody explain why the http accept filter only works on GET/HEAD requests? The reason I ask is I was checking up on the slowloris DOS tool (http://ha.ckers.org/slowloris/slowloris.pl) and, like others before me, found that the -httpready switch (which uses POST instead of GET) renders the accf_http module useless as a protection against this kind of attack. With the POST request, the client sends additional data after the header. This additonal data is the form data (the x-www-form-urlencoded encoded name-value pairs). The filter will allow the request to proceed to the application after the header as been received but before the form data has been received. A slowloris attack could exploit this fact by sending a complete header but then slowing doling out the form data. To protect against this scenario, the filter would need to be modified to collect the form data as well. Of course, it doesn't stop there. The filter would also have to deal with multi-part forms.

To answer my own silly question, the above doesn't preserve paths. Anyway, as
always, there is more than one solution. Not every solution fits
universally.

Re: Lost SSH X1 Forwarding with Xorg 7.2
On July 5, 2007, Olivier Nicole wrote:
A nice *feature* that I just noticed, I apologize if it has been
mentionned earlier.
xorg 7.2 tends to install all the components in /usr/loca insteal of
the traditional /usr/X11R6.
But sshd is still expecting xauth to be in /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth; so
sshd_config has to be modified to reflect the fact that xauth new path
is /usr/local/bin/xauth.
So the default /etc/ssh/sshd_config should be adapted to reflect this
change...
The default location in /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth should still work with the
symlink in place.
However, I had a similar problem to yours. Having tracked 7.2 for some time,
I had X11BASE=${LOCALBASE} in /etc/make.conf. When building sshd,
LOCALBASE is not defined and X11BASE ends up being the empty string. This
then caused XAUTH_PATH to be set to /bin/xauth which, of course, does not
exist. Removing the statement from /etc/make.conf fixed this -- it isn't
required anymore.
Cheers.
