If so - how? You could either create a routine to rotate the file - maybe syslogd could do it. Or, set up an alias to forward the email messages to another place. These would be log and security messages. You could forward them to /bin/null, but I think it is bad form to automatically nuke security messages. Note also that /var/log will grow over time.

Re: Restarting DSL connection without reboot?
Hi, there, For the servers that I use pppoe I use to create scripts that tests the connection to the internet, and, in case of a problem, they restart everything (logically speaking). Things I use to care: - Kill the ppp process and destroy tun interface; - Put interface down for 2-3 seconds; - Clean arp tables; After that, when the script turns ppp on, everything works. If the problem is with the physical equipment, I once use python with telnet module to automatically log via telnet on the modem and send the command to reboot it.

Dear community, I am having continuous problems with ADSL connections and FreeBSD servers. I am running a few dozens of FreeBSD boxes and today in the morning a lot of them were without internet connectivity. Looks like our provider had some maintenance work or something. What happened: the tech guy at one of the customers first rebooted the server 2 times and then he called me. We tried together: 1. first we tried to ping an internet IP address and the reply was Nobuffer space available. After that we did killall -9 ppp until all theppp processes died. After that we ran /etc/rc.d/ppp- user (it's a 5.3 box)again but the connection wouldn't come up (no route to host, when pinging). 2. After reboot everything worked as it should. I really don't like to reboot servers as soon as they lose DSL connectivity. Is there any proper way to reset the connection (network card?) so that the connection restores without a reboot? Previously I've been running Linux on these servers and at that time I didn't have these problems - a reset of modem would always resolve the problem. Mostly I am using rl network cards, if that's an helpful info, but somewhere I also have sis and others.

Suposing your default gateway is 10.0.0.1 and alternative gateway is 192.168.1.1 and your network is 172.16.0.0, with this rules your web requests are going through alterative gateway, and all the rest through default gateway Another way is using pf, where you can even do a round robin use of both gateways, as in http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/pools.html.

Re: Run existing FreeBSD installation inside jail
Hi there... I developed a step-by-step guite to remotely upgrade a 4.x to 6.x, with the only inconveniece of keep using UFS1. That's because I'm responsible for about 70 servers without video and keyboard in diference places around the town. As long as all the servers have a installation pattern and run the same services, and the customization is made remotely and automatically, I installed a brand new 6.1 in a new HD, customized everything NOT MACHINE DEPENDENT, and made a root.tar.gz, usr.tar.gz and var.tar.gz. It's not a state-of-art, because I'm installing it all untarging it... But as long as I don't need to visit 70 building (in places like the attic, under some water reservatory), it worked very well for me. If you are interested on giving it a try (I made about 20 of those in laboratory before start to do it on production servers) I can send my annotations. One of the best advantages is that it only requires two reboots, keeping a very low downtime, and all of your configuration files are still there after the final rebooting, in case you forget something. And it only requires some space on the /, /var and /usr partitions... Best regards! -- Rafael Mentz Aquino BSDServer Ltda. 51 - 9847 8825 -- Original Message --- From: albi [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Hr.
