Re: backups using rsync

Guilmette wrote: Now, unfortunately, I have just been bitten by the evil... and apparently widely known (except to me)... ``You can't use dump(8) to dump a journaled filesystem with soft updates'' bug-a-boo. There are other tools you can use, for example tar or cpdup or rsync, as you've mentioned in the subject. Or if you want to be ambitious you could install something like 'sysutils/backuppc' (where one of its methods is rsync, its what I use for all the systems I back up with it. - Windows, Linux, Mac OSX.) And, then could get more than just the weekly rsync to itthough it could probably be made to only do fulls every week. But, you could potentially then restore from an older full. I do system fulls of my other systems to it...can't do a baremetal restore, but it can get me back up and running faster. IE: I recently had harddrive failures in a couple of FreeBSD systems. I did a fresh install and at first I restored /home and /usr/local (and some other dirs, like /var/db/pkg /var/db/ports)...and then other dirs and files as I found things missing. Had to rebuild a handful of ports after that and then things were good. The second system didn't go as well, because it had been silently corrupting things for a long time beforebut I still did the same kind of restore at first, but ended up rebuilding all the ports to get things good again. Not sure if losing the system disk, if I could recover from a local backuppc... but I have my old backuppc system, getting most of my current system (mainly omit the backuppc pool, think my backup storage requirements would grow exponentially if I didn'tmy main backuppc pool is currently 6300G out of 7300G zpool.) But, I've suffered bit rot on the old backuppc pool in the past..when it was a RAID 1+0 arrayprobably worse now that its a 2.7TB volume without raid (the only volume on that system that isn't mirrored.) Though wonder if I want to try zfs on linux again, or replace it with FreeBSD. I was faced with something like this on my Windows boxwhere eventually, I ended up writing off restoring from the local backup (a commercial time machine like product)...the mistake was using a windows fake raid5 external array as my backup drive. And, losing the system due to problems in the fake raid. I did briefly put together a CentOS live CD that could access the array, but the drives I copied the data to promptly failed on me shortly after I had broken the array and turned them into a raidz pool. Someday I need to get back to going through the disk image of the failed system drive and recover as much as possible from that.

Networking IP Address Issues : NetBSD on Xen VM
List, Little bit offtopic of FreBSD, Hope some one can help with some suggestions.. The Objective is to port NetBSD as a Virtual Machine into Cloud. Steps Involved in Porting NetBSD as a Virtual Machine: Porting of NetBSD as a Virtual Machine involves 2 steps. A. Porting NetBSD w.r.t Virtualization B. Porting NetBSD w.r.t Cloud MiddleWare If Step 1 is completed successfully, then only Step2 could be proceeded. A. Porting NetBSD w.r.t Virtualization: We use Xen Virtualization.Xen Virtualization involves the following steps. Various methods are available to port NetBSD as Virtual Machine in Xen 1. Building from ISO ( Via Paravirtualization - Using NetBSD community provided Kernel / Full Virtualization - using Qemu ) 2. Building the NetBSD File System from the Source We have tried both the ways. 1.1 Building from ISO ( Via Paravirtualization - Using NetBSD community provided Kernel ): 1. Get the ISO file of NetBSD Operating System . 2. Build the IMG File from the ISO File by using NetBSD community provided Kernel Refer : http://www.netbsd.org/ports/xen/howto.html 1.2 Building from ISO ( Via Full virtualization - Using Qemu): Refer: http://open.eucalyptus.com/wiki/creating-images-iso-xen By following the above Step, the following version of NetBSD Image was built. Version NetBSD 5.1 Kernel XEN3_DOMU Kernel Version NetBSD netbsd51.yourdomain.org 5.1 NetBSD 5.1 (XEN3_DOMU) #0: Sat Nov 6 13:17:16 UTC 2010 bui...@b6.netbsd.org:/home/builds/ab/netbsd-5-1-RELEASE/amd64/201011061943Z-obj/home/builds/ab/netbsd-5-1-RELEASE/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/XEN3_DOMU amd64 Architecture amd64 / 64 Bit Guest Virtual Machine Working Components : The NetBSD Guest is booted successfully in Multi User Mode, which enables root user to create / delete files / directories. The Network Interface is xennet0 The File System details are as follows.

Even though static IP Address is assigned, netmask,gateway is set, the NetBSD Guest Virtual Machine is unable to connect to outside Network; Machines in outside network are also unable to connect to the NetBSD Guest Virtual Machine . Please shed some light on this, Why this issue occurs ? Or doing wrong way? 2. Building the NetBSD File System and Kernel from the Source: NetBSD Image could be built by connecting to the NetBSD repository, download the Source packages, compile and build the Kernel and the NetBSD File System; at last convert the NetBSD File System into a single Image via makefs command. I compiled 64 Bit NetBSD Kernel and 64 Bit NetBSD File System. B. Porting NetBSD into Cloud MiddleWare: Porting NetBSD into Cloud Middleware involves bundling , uploading and registering Kernel, RamDisk and Machine Image into Cloud. The NetBSD Image has been uploaded into cloud and a sample Virtual Machine was run Successfully in our Cloud Setup (192.168.1.6). Refer : http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/netbsd_now_runs_under_amazon By following this procedure, the following version of NetBSD Image was built.

RE: DRI for Radeon HD5450 on FreeBSD 9.0

I have a fresh 9.0/amd64 on my machine and Xorg fails to initialise the DRI. It says (from Xorg-0.log): (II) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI2 capable (II) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable (II) AIGLX: Loaded and initialized /usr/local/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so (II) GLX: Initialized DRISWRAST GL provider for screen 0 (II) RADEON(0): Setting screen physical size to 338 x 270 As the last line of the snippet displays it, I use radeon(4x) as driver. I used the page http://people.freebsd.org/~anholt/dri/troubleshooting.html http://people.freebsd.org/%7Eanholt/dri/troubleshooting.html to try to diagnose the problem and it seems that none of the driver agp radeondrm and drm is able to initaialize correctly. Can you enable DRI for HD5450 on FreeBSD 9.0 ? Do you have some useful documentation to show me? In any of these cases, I would say ``thanks!'' -- Best regards, Michael Neither 2D nor 3D acceleration are supported on any HD5xxx or higher GPU.

Server cannot boot : mount root got stuck
Fellow FreeBSDians, I am experiencing a problem with my FreeBSD server box. I can't get the system up. when I boot the machine its boots asking for boot options, and going with the default boot option This is an old freeBSD server box with FreeBSD-6.1 then its reaching mount root after that nothing, its stuck on this prompt mount root mount root I didn't do anything, day before yesterday its working.. Yesterday when I tried to login from my desktop , it not allowing me to login through my ssh keys so I checked physically the server and connected a monitor, seeing the boot splash image is garbled with some alphabetic characters.. and tried to reboot, hardware reboot. But it reaching the boot splash image of FreeBSD with boot options displayed, but what ever boot option I select , it not going further, but reboots again to the boot splash image screen. Today morning I just took its hard disk and connected to another box having same specs Then I started the box, with the harddisk of my server ..., then it going after the boot, so I thought issues over... But my bad, this time it comes to a prompt mount root and stuck there.. No key board inputs works in mount root prompt Any hints to recover this issue, most appreciated, and this is a production server , and I want it up as early as possible.

ZFS not returning correct data if checksum fails? (copies=2)
Hi, I may have experienced some odd behavior from ZFS running 8.0-STABLE-201004 amd64. I have a zpool 'zhome' on my laptop with checksum=on and copies=2. I was getting ready to burn a FreeBSD DVD today and was verifying the checkums of the image I downloaded (stored on zhome). I got a match on the md5 hash, but a mismatch on the sha256 hash. Rerunning the sha256 hash gave the correct result. I luckily just got in the office earlier and had a zpool status in my terminal buffer which indicated no errors on zhome. Running zpool status after the checksumming operations shows one checksum error. I was under the impression that ZFS, upon encountering a checksum error, would check the second copy of the block (since I have set copies=2) and send that data instead (assuming it was correct), that does not seem to have happened. I have run into checksum errors in the past where I had copies=1, in those cases ZFS would simply stop reading the file at that point and I would get a read error, which I did not in this case. Also I am fairly certain that the dvd image was not buffered in RAM between hashes (i.e. each hash read the data from disk). Perhaps the checksum was correct the first time around and some other part of my system corrupted the data? RAM has been tested many months ago using memtest86 and several other tools without problem (not that new problems couldn't have popped up). a...@moony:~$ zpool status zhome pool: zhome state: ONLINE scrub: none requested config: NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM zhomeONLINE 0 0 0 ad4p3.eli ONLINE 0 0 0 errors: No known data errors a...@moony:ISOs$ grep *8.0*amd64-dvd1* CHECKSUM.* | cut -d\= -f2 227adf4b4010aa1bc98baf50953ec2d0 4c087a9d23a53f861f3548461cde500a6db709ff704e972c51677531ea6d65b3 a...@moony:ISOs$ md5 FreeBSD-8.0-STABLE-201005-amd64-dvd1.iso | cut -d\= -f2 227adf4b4010aa1bc98baf50953ec2d0 a...@moony:ISOs$ sha256 FreeBSD-8.0-STABLE-201005-amd64-dvd1.iso | cut -d\= -f2 4fcbcaacf14ff7c0394f119b1ca93e645456241d5b7d42aaf8f92b5a70b279d4 a...@moony:ISOs$ sha256 FreeBSD-8.0-STABLE-201005-amd64-dvd1.iso | cut -d\= -f2 4c087a9d23a53f861f3548461cde500a6db709ff704e972c51677531ea6d65b3 a...@moony:ISOs$ zpool status zhome pool: zhome state: ONLINE status: One or more devices has experienced an unrecoverable error.

build a port that depends on Java
Hi, I am going to build a port (named `vue`, http://vue.tufts.edu/) that depends on Java libraries but I don't know how to set the dependencies (the RUN_DEPENDS variable in `Makefile`). I know some kinds of Java and don't know which one should be used. At least, Vue works well with OpenJDK6. Another problem is that the original file for port is in `.zip` format. As far as I know `.zip` isn't natively supported in FreeBSD. Should I convert that file to `.tar.gz` format and redistribute in my site (instead of using file from VUE master site?). Though using EXTRACT_DEPENDS=unzip:${PORTSDIR}/archivers/unzip is possible I think such usage is so expensive :) Thank you for your helps, Regards, -- Anh K.

Both have functioned well enough, although with Drupal if you need more exotic array of plugins, they have to be installed manually as ports seem to miss several. In addition, some of the Drupal plugins need a bit of tweaking (getting rid of mysqlisms) if used under Postgres, although the main application works good enough. -Reko ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org _ Great events make grand headlines – read them all on MSN India http://in.msn.com___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
RE: New mail server setup
Hello Steve: I'll try to answer your questions in line. snip Another approach would be a cluster of Postfix servers and Dovecot servers behind PF load balancers. We have 3 POP servers (IMAP/POP), 9 Mail Servers, 2 Defer servers and 5 Filter servers that process over 20 million messages a day without a blip. We can take individual servers out of the pool for maintenance, etc. Everything is fed to a set of redundant NAS for the data storage and common configuration files. Thanks Mike, I'm interested to learn a little more about your setup. I was going to take it off-list, but if you can provide some further details, it would probably add long-term value to keep it here. So, a couple of questions: - can your PF load balancers 'sense' when one of the Postfix/Dovecot units are down, or is this a manual change in config to prevent any time-out conditions? Not natively. When we initially implemented this setup, ifstated wasn't up to snuff, so we wrote some PERL scripts that make connections to the required ports and, if no connection is established, pull the server from the table and send us an alarm. We also have scripts so that we can pull servers out when we're doing maintenance. I like this load balancer idea. In my environment, it would be trivial to set up a couple of them, throw Quagga on them, and integrate them directly into our iBGP setup. On the other side, I could use VRRP or the like to ensure redundancy from front to back. We use two PF boxes and CARP with PFSync for failover, so no dynamic protocols are needed. - do the Postfix/Dovecot servers communicate with each other, or are they simply stand-alone units that don't know/care that they have other peers helping with the workload? They are standalone. All of the user authentication is handled from a centralized database, so there are no local credentials stored on the server. - are your filter servers in front of, or behind the load balancers (iow, is all of your inbound email passed through the balancers, and then filtered/processed/delivered in behind them)? They are behind the PF boxes. We have other hooks in PF that we use to block SPAM in PF, including Cloudmark and some custom stuff that looks for multiple mails to non-existent addresses. We also use the overload tables for abusive connections. - how do all of the pieces communicate with the NAS...NFS? Yes. Originally we used TCP but we found performance to be much better with UDP. NFSv3 by the way. - could you share a small snip of your PF config in relation to load-balancing, so I can get a bit of a better understanding config- wise on how that piece hangs together? (I've never used PF, only IFPW ;) That might be difficult because it's about 720 lines. :-) Here are some highlights, though. 1) Our customers use mail.adhost.com for everything - SMTP, POP and IMAP. We use redirects in PF so that traffic coming in on the associated ports goes to the appropriate servers. 2) We have our load-balanced DNS servers behind the same PF boxes so we localize the tons of DNS queries related to mail. 3) We do a lot of our rejecting in PF, including Spamhaus, Cloudmark, check scripts for Phishing, Porn and Viruses, as well as our own list of Nefarious IP's culled from various sources. When traffic matches these originators, we send them to mail reject servers that send out a 550 message with the group name so we can find false positives more quickly. 4) Because 3 does have false positives, we have a whitelist that we can add to that will pass traffic to the mail servers before they match against any of the tables in 3. 5) We use POP before SMTP, so once we authenticate a user to send, their IP address is also added to an allow table. 6) The filter servers are load balanced to and from the mail servers so we can take them in and out of their pool for maintenance. If you have a particular scenario you're thinking about I could help you with the rules to make it work.

Now, that is a different kettle of fish. This is a job for cyrus imap. I suggest googling for 'cyrus murder' -- this is almost, but not quite, a fully resilient mail store / IMAP system. Your mail store is divided into frontend IMAP protocol servers which handle user auth etc. and back-end mail stores. The protocol layer servers are fully resilient and you can fail over a user session at will, but the mailstores don't quite get there: mail is replicated across different stores, but actions modifying the mail store are not transactional across all the mail stores. Or in other words, you can lose a small amount of data if one of the mail stores goes bang at precisely the wrong moment. Even so, it will do better at keeping multiple copies of a mailstore in synch than any locally scripted rsync setup. This is *EXACTLY* what I was looking for! The possibility of loosing an extremely small amount of data far outweighs the possibility of a multi-hour outage where 3,000 users are receiving can't reach the POP3 server errors. Besides, our incoming SMTP gateway boxes cache all incoming email for 24 hours, and we can re-deliver any message to the back-end we wish during that window. I really try my best to design/implement all the systems I can like our networks... multiple paths and extremely quick convergence. Being able to take a box down to test/perform an upgrade, or during a failure without client impact is well worth any initial large learning curve imho.

RE: glabel(8) a gmirror(8) doesn't work
List members; http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/geom-glabel.html Starting with FreeBSD 7.2, the glabel(8) class supports a new label type for UFS file systems, based on the unique file system id, ufsid. Is the above clause applicable in this case ? instead of using tunefs -L can we use# glabel status ? and can use the ufsid labels of /dev/ufsid/and edit /etc/fstab entries for the partitions? From: valentin@gmail.com Date: Wed, 10 Jun 2009 09:12:47 +0300 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: glabel(8) a gmirror(8) doesn't work Hello community, Yesterday I have installed FBSD 7.2-RELEASE. I have installed on a mirror created with gmirror(8). All I have modified on this system is that I have updated the sources, rebuild the world and kernel and of course install. I have named the mirror system0 and all worked well. Now the problem is that i want to glabel the partitions on the mirror so i have followed the following procedure: 1. reboot to single user 2. mount -a 3. tunefs -L var /dev/mirror/system0s1d This commands exits with Failed to write superblock. After reading the man of gmirrror(8) and glabel(8) i have noticed that both of them store metadata on the last sector of the provider. From this results that what I want to do is not possible, at least my logic tells me that. Since gmirror wrote metadata to the last sector of the provider, glabel tries to rewrite it and the system stops the process to protect the filesystem. But then again for gmirror the providers are the two hdd i use for mirroring and for glabel the provider is the mirror itself. That's again what my logic tells me. So i think there is some kind of separation between the two modules and things should work. I have searched a bit but couldn't find any relevant info on labeling a mirror. I just want to know if this is possible and if it's not I'd like to understand why. Labeling a partition is not a must-have but it's sure nice :). thanks, v -- network warrior since 2005 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org _ cricket and news.

Problems with IPv6 CARP Interface in PF

RE: esxi and freebsd vlans

I've tried setting the vlan id on the vSwitch to none and to 22, but in neither of the two cases does it work. [Michael K. Smith - Adhost] You will need to make sure the switchport facing your server is set to 802.1Q trunk and has VLAN 22 allowed. The IP address on em0 itself is untagged so it will work regardless of the port settings on the switch. VLAN 22 has the 4-byte header attached so the other side has to recognize the tag.

RE: first firewall with pf
Hello Eric: Hi everyone, Can you provide a little more information about your topology? Right now, you only have one interface defined in your rules, but you are attempting to pass traffic between two subnets. That would suggest you have two interfaces and, if so, both need to be accounted for in your rules below. You'll have to have pass/block rules for both. It looks like this: 172.16.0.0/16 - le0 firewall - (some other interface) - 10.0.0.0 Could you tell me if that is correct? Thanks, Mike - Original Message Snipped - Thanks for all your input so far. I have tried to implement all you suggestions but have gotten stuck. I set up a test machine in the office with the ip 10.0.0.110 and encountered the following problems: when I enables antispoofing the firewall didn't work when I tried allowing the 10.0.0.0 subnet it worked ok but when i tried connecting from machines on the 172.16 subnet I was unable to connect. Can you please let me know what I'm doing wrong? PGP.sig Description: PGP signature
RE: first firewall with pf
I also forgot to mention: You should probably log your block rule so that you can see what's going on if things don't work as expected. So: block in log on $ext_if Note the lack of quick as well, as previously mentioned. With logging enabled, provided you have pflog running (which you should), you can use the following to see what's being blocked. tcpdump -n -e -ttt -i pflog0 (provided pflog0 is your pflog interface).

Unfortunately, this is limited to linux at the moment, but I *believe* Robert Noland has begun investigating how to port those changes over. IIRC, it was related to having to use a more recent Xorg and MesaGL for the latest changes to work. As soon as the ports freeze is over, I assume they would get merged in. We're talking about the kernel modules here, not Xorg and Mesa. The DRM is necessary for EXA and Xv (as well as an updated DDX). And based on the conversations between Robert and the Linux/ATI folks, it is not as simple as merging the changes in. The new gart support necessary for r600/r700 cards, for example, is completely linux specific, as I understand it. I'm also hoping to see support for DRI and Xv and even 3D in RV780 chipsets soon, esp. now that AMD has finally decided to release the RV600/700 specs to the public: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=articleitem=amd_r600_oss_3dnum=1 -cpghost. The specs are not yet available. The only thing newly available is the DRM and updated DDX. The specs be available as soon as they finish sanitizing the documents and get approval. This will hopefully be soon. :-) Adam -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Hello Geoff: On 12/22/08 4:06 AM, Geoff Roberts ge...@apro.com.au wrote: Hi, I have a FreeBSD 7.0 box with pf. I have two internal networks (intnet0 and intnet1) and two internal networks (extnet0 and extnet1). extnet0 and extnet1 are two different gateways to the internet.

Traffic from intnet0 needs to go out on extnet0 Traffic from intnet1 needs to go out on extnet1 (consider this a default route for any traffic not going out on extnet0). What are some suggested ways of doing this? Assume addresses are (these are made up, but hopefully help paint the picture): intnet0 - 192.168.50.0/24 extnet0 - 10.10.10.8/30 - extnet0 address 10.10.10.8.10 - default route 10.10.10.9 - broadcast 10.10.10.11 intnet1 - 192.168.60.0/24 extnet1 - 10.10.10.12/30 - extnet1 address 10.10.10.14 - default route 10.10.10.13 - broadcast 10.10.10.15 So far I have created vlans via a switch on each interface to multiplex the connections: vlan10 - 192.168.50.0/24 and vlan20 - 192.168.60.0/24 come in on a single cable to int0. vlan50 - 10.10.10.8/30 and vlan60 - 10.10.10.12/30 come in on a single cable to ext0. However, since I have the defaultroute set for 10.10.10.13 all traffic from intnet0 is going out on vlan60 whereas i want it to go out on vlan50. Am I going about this the wrong way? I think this will work. Let's assume: $vlan10_if - macro for your tagged VLAN 10 interface $vlan20_if - macro for your tagged VLAN 20 interface $vlan50_if - macro for your tagged VLAN 50 interface $vlan60_if - macro for your tagged VLAN 60 interface $vlan50_gw = 10.10.10.9 $vlan60_gw = 10.10.10.13 pass in on $vlan10_if route-to ($vlan50_if $vlan50_gw) from any to any pass in on $vlan20_if route-to ($vlan60_if $vlan60_gw) from any to any That would be in conjunction with your NAT's and any RDR's as well.

GIANT_LOCK in release7.0
I have not been able to find any discussion of the following issue. Ever since I upgraded to release 7.0, whenever I print to my network printer (I am using Samba) I get the following output to ttyv0: lpt0: [GIANT-LOCKED] lpt0: [ITHREAD] lpt0: [GIANT-LOCKED] lpt0: [ITHREAD] lpt0: [GIANT-LOCKED] lpt0: [ITHREAD] lpt0: [GIANT-LOCKED] lpt0: [ITHREAD] lpt0: [GIANT-LOCKED] lpt0: [ITHREAD] ... this can continue for a very long time depending on the size of the queue The actual printing is fine, and since I am rarely at the terminal it isn't a serious problem. In fact, if I am working at the server and someone else is sending jobs to the printer I switch over to ttyv1, so there is really no inconvenience. On the other hand, I thought that release 7 is GIANT_LOCK free, so this is rather unexpected. I would appreciate any information or explanation. In the printout below, you will note SMALLKERNEL7, this is just a paring down of the generic kernel to tailor it to my system. The behaviour I discuss above occurs with the default kernel as well.

Re: Is KDE4 usable on FreeBSD?
the question should be Is KDE usable at all on any OS? the answer is no, it's crappy imitation of windoze. If someone needs windoze like soft, just buy windows vista. For someone who need unix, FreeBSD is a good choice. I have to quote some random shoutbox I§vre read a long time ago: Narrow-minded is the only opinion worth expressing. You have to realize that this is the question of every user's individual needs. Some users, like for example yourself, like going deep, using the shell for tasks from everyday life, some users are more GUI-oriented and like somewhat more graphic approach to the same tasks. Saying that some software is crap just because it distantly resembles some other soft and everybody using the soft you're criticizing should use the other one instead, is just... Stupid. Even more if you compare a desktop environment to a whole OS. So, please, stop forcing your opinions to others and let them choose for themselves.

Re: CUPS wont print inside GNOME
I find it kind of self defeating for the ports if you HAVE to add stuff to the /etc/make.conf file for it to work without any documentation telling you to do so or not doing it automatically (Like PERL did) On the other hand, some of us, like myself, find it a bit... Arrogant? ...if some port touches your system config files without asking. And simply printing it on the output at the end of installation isn't enough since it might get lost if an other port is built right after the one printing out the message.

RE: I've just found a new and interesting spam source - legitimatebounce messages
The term coined for this type of mail is backscatter. There is no easy solution for this. The backscatter article on postfix.org, for example, caused our mail servers to start rejecting mail that was generated from PHP scripts and CGIs on our own systems, which makes no sense. The article: http://www.postfix.org/BACKSCATTER_README.html If the backscatter is all directed to a single Email address (rather than a series of addresses, e.g. [EMAIL PROTECTED], and you have [EMAIL PROTECTED] accepted), then a solution is to reject mail with an RCPT TO of an account or virtual address that does not exist on your machine. This, of course, has a wonderful side effect: spammers now have a way to detect what Email addresses on your box legitimately accept mail, thus once they find one which never gets a bounceback, will start pounding that address to kingdom come. Let me know if you do find a reliable, decent solution that does not involve SPF or postfix header_checks or body_checks. The following doesn't fix the problem but it does help mitigate the deluge. We use a PERL script to tail our maillogs looking for any source IP that tries to send mail to more than 4 invalid addresses. When flagged, that IP is then added to a PF table that blocks the address and issues RST's for 12 hours. Of course, we also have a whitelist for valid SMTP servers. Like I said, it doesn't catch it all, but it catches *a lot* and generates almost no complaints. This does help obfuscate the valid/invalid addresses because all mail is accepted as far as the sender is concerned until the IP is blocked at the network layer. The usual complaint is from an remote office that has 12 real estate agents behind a single IP, all with Outlook set to check mail sooner than now. :-) Mike PGP.sig Description: PGP signature

My google-fu is coming up empty with the swi1: net Can you explain what the problem is? Sorry it took so long to reply. We actually got the issue resolved, but I wanted to make sure our fix actually worked. Here is what the problem/solution is. The problem was significant packet loss and connectivity issue to and through the PF server. Even pinging the loopback address on the server itself was returning 4 ms times. The problem was a very busy NFS server with clients on the same VLAN, but on a different subnet. So, we had a VLAN interface on em1 that had two address ranges attached, 10.255.0.0/16 and 10.212.6.0/16. The NFS server was on the 10.255 and the clients were on the 10.212. Even though they were on the same VLAN, they weren't directly ARP'able, so all traffic (400 - 600 Mb/sec) between them had to be processed by the server. When we moved the clients on to the same subnet as the server, everything stabilized. I think this was an issue of bad design on my part.

At the same time, I do not want to reject legitimate RST packets. Thanks in advance for any clues! Well, just to clarify a bit, the RST packets aren't the ones you are getting. You are apparently getting port-scanned. The message just says it won't reply by an RST packet to a SYN going to a closed port more than 200 times per second. I would suggest ignoring all SYN packets going to closed ports.

RE: ipv6
Excuse me for jumping in on this thread, I'm only just starting to look into IPv6 for myself. My ISP has informed me that it doesn't support IPv6 yet, and won't for some time. I have a DNS server and sites on IPv4, but I'd like to be able to support IPv6- does the fact that my ISP doesn't support it stop me from serving on IPv6? I'd think it does, but some clarity from experts might help... You could use a tunnel broker like Hurricane Electric for free.

I have found that attaching and detaching USB drives to my box is unreliable. Is this the experience of other users? something more precise please? I realize that this is primarily a tech support forum. I wasn't asking for a solution to the problem. I was asking for other peoples experiences. If the USB support in FreeBSD was spotty according to other people, as has been reported, then I plan to not even try to work on it more until I install 7.1. Just for the record: - crashes the system on attachment - crashes the system on detachment - the system hangs on attachment but resumes responding if you pull the drive - installing the drive results in the little blue light coming on with dmesg reporting attachment, but attempts to mount fail with device not configured or somesuch - dataloss on the device that chkdisk in DOS couldn't save Basically, every possible bad behavior that you could ask from a USB connected drive has happened to me over time as I keep coming back and trying USB drives. That's OK. I'm not upset. I'm not complaining. I just want to know what to expect from USB drives in FreeBSD. That sounds familiar, but I guess most USB storage devices are very similar, so maybe start looking at the USB controller. I know in my case, installing a PCI USB card with _NEC_ chipset solved all my problems. Thought it worth mentioning ...
