Re: Network configuration
Hello, I see you have a problem here. First what kind of connectivity does your DSL provider use? Companies like Covad, VerizonEast, Earthlink & AOL use pppoe. So the first thing is to figure out what you provider requires DHCP, Static, or pppoe. Then it is very simple to begin nating between the two Networks. biggreenwall#ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via rl0 biggreenwall# cat /etc/dhcpd.conf subnet 192.168.50.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { range 192.168.50.2 192.168.50.254; option routers 192.168.50.1; } biggreenwall#dhcpd rl1 -q biggreenwall# ifconfig -a rl0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet 66.24.50.87 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 66.24.50.255 inet6 fe80::230:bdff:fe26:4b28%rl0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 ether 00:30:bd:26:4b:28 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX ) status: active rl1: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet 192.168.50.1 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.50.255 inet6 fe80::230:bdff:fe28:295b%rl1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 ether 00:30:bd:28:29:5b media: Ethernet autoselect (10baseT/UTP) status: active biggreenwall# cat /etc/rc.conf "cut to save space" defaultrouter="66.24.50.1" gateway_enable="YES" hostname="biggreenwall" ifconfig_rl0="inet 66.24.50.87netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_rl1="inet 192.168.50.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" router_enable="YES" sendmail_enable="NO" natd_enable="YES" natd_interface="rl0" # the id of your public NIC card natd_flags="-m" biggreenwall# RFC1918 - Original Message - From: "Nathan Kinkade" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Terrence Koeman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, July 08, 2004 1:49 PM Subject: Re: Network configuration ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

how to extract 512 bytes from a file
I am trying to recover some files which were on a windowz system, which crashed go figure so someone wiped out the drive format and then relized that they had important files on the drive. They then used sometype of recovery software to extract them and now I have them. These files are supposed to be AVI format but when I open them in a hex editor and extract sections they are not part of an AVI file. It looks like the recovery software just read entire sectors and called them an avi file. I can clearly see the html of cached web pages, and pointers to applications. I do have some files that seem to be almost intact and in the correct format but the header preamble of the file is missing . I was thinking I could take a working avi and extract the first 512 bytes and insert it into the beginning of a bogus file. Does anyone think this may work ? Any idea how I can accomplish this ? I have tried with my hex editor extracting the first 512 bytes to a file like 1st512 and then "cat corruptfile >> 1st512" and then "mv 1st512 goodmovie.avi" but this is not working. Am I wasting my time ? Do I smoke too much weed ? Is this the wrong list for this question ? ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Re: sendmail issues
Not sure totally understand question. I will take a stab at it. sendmail uses a file /etc/mail/access to controll relaying. It actually does not use this file it uses /etc/mail/access.db but this is a database file "hash" which cannot be edited by people of ordinary intelligents or at least not me. Most probable cause of (of f network) users not being able to sendmail is a relaying restriction. You may want to look into pop b4 smtp. Pop b4 smtp work's by clients authenticate against pop3 first the source IP of client is added to /etc/mail/access, access is turned into access.db "makemap" and sendmail is restarted and then client sends. pop-before-smtp http://popbsmtp.sourceforge.net/ All configuration files for sendmail are located in /etc/mail/ Example startup/stop script is located in /usr/local/etc/rc.d Or you can just type "Shell>ps -auxwww | grep send" and then run "kill -9 PID" to stop and "kill -HUP PID" to just restart. - Original Message - From: "Bernard Rice" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, June 16, 2004 9:17 PM Subject: sendmail issues > Hello all, > > > > I'm having problems sending and receiving mail to and from my outside > network.

This behavior could be caused by a virus/ trojan or worm. Sasser will reboot windowz boxes. Get some AV software update it and scan your system.

Re: Anti-Spam app for sendmail
Yes Mailscanner is good but you may have to jump through hoops to get it to work with BSD . No matter what OS you will still need to install a bunch of perl modules for mailscanner & spamassasin. If thats ok with you then they are pretty good. First your going to need a licensed version of sometype of antivirus application you can always get freeB's but they will eventually run out. some of the AV for BSD are panda, kaspersky,. macfee, and Sophos & fprot . Both Fprot & Sophos have evaluation versions both are easy to install and use. Your next choice is what mailscanner application to use. I have setup mailscanner with the fprot & sweep succesfully on 4.8 could not get it to work on 5.0 . I did not even try spamassasin because of all the cpan mods needed. I am using mailmonitor & sophos sweep works great I can block files or file extentions types, block subject content, quarantine infected attachments, attempt to clean them. You can go to sophos.com and fill out evalutaions for both mailmonitor & sweep . One thing mailmonitor needs to be run in linux compatibility mode and you need to install the linux versions of sweep & mailmonitor . They actually make software packages for BSD. unfourtunatly mailmonitor is targeted to linux ,solaris & Windoz . PS I had rambled on about sophos & mailmonitor in another bsd question here is the link and here is a response from some guy in Germany or something . I guess he is using some other mailscanning software check it out. http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg65212.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg65240.html I wonder who should ever need mailmonitor in FreeBSD > Here we are running Sophos on several FBSD machines and we use amavis to make it scan and filter > our mails.

Re: help me make a Mail Server choice
You should check out puremessage from ActiveState & Sophos. Other choices are mailscanner & spamassasin, as for free scanners most of these still require sometype of an AV engine. You can download an evaluation of sophos savi it will work for about three months. Most free software like mailscanner will utilize savi , fprot, Mcafee.

Mine looks like this authoritative; ddns-update-style none; log-facility local7; subnet 192.168.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { dynamic-dhcp range 192.168.10.2 192.168.10.254 { option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0; option domain-name "yourdomain.com"; option domain-name-servers 4.2.2.4,4.2.2.5,4.2.2.6; option routers 192.168.10.1; option dhcp-lease-time 14400; option dhcp-renewal-time 7200; option dhcp-rebinding-time 12600; } } If you don't have dhcpd installed just go into this directory /usr/ports/net/isc-dhcp3/ and type "make && make install" you will have it after this, provided the machine is connected to the internet. good luck Tom - Original Message - From: "Thomas Farrell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, June 03, 2004 11:38 PM Subject: Re: Firestarter or equivalent? > man ipfw > > kldstat > kldload /boot/kernel/ipfw.ko > > Thats it ! > > - Original Message - > From: "Ron & Ariane Joordens" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Friday, June 04, 2004 7:31 PM > Subject: Firestarter or equivalent? > > > > > > Hello FreeBSDers, > > > > Two questions really. > > > > 1.

Re: Requesting Info
You can run a server. I run teamfortress on my FreeBSD 5.0 366Mhz 256MB, and can have 16 people cranking away no problem.

sophos anti virus and mailmonitor on freebsd
Mailmonitor will work on BSD. I have it running you have to build a symbolic link to the libsavi.so.3 library in /compat/linux/lib/ . Like this ln -s /usr/local/sav/lib/libsavi.so.3 /compat/linux/lib/libsavi.so.2 . Keep in mind that this is in linux compat mode so once it starts up all your mmsmtp stuff will be located in /compat/linux/var/spool/mmsmtp I know Sophos states it won't work but thats just who your talking too, If you had got me on the phone I would have had you up and running. Oh by the way if you still have the same problem after applying the symbolic link try running the un-installer that comes with mmsmtp . then run the install script to re-install. Delete the symbolic link and then linnk the library which comes with the sav-install script. in my case I have my latest sav-install script located in /tmp . I link the larger of the two libraries and it works fine. ssigc# ls -la | grep lib -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 957904 Jul 7 2003 libsavi.so.3.2.05.035 -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1384632 Feb 9 05:04 libsavi.so.3.2.07.054 < Link this one as libsavi.so.2 ssigc# pwd /tmp/sav-install ssigc# ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
