Addition?
Hi there, Cheeky me!? I came across your page with grammar exercises at http://web008.pavilion.net/fr/gallery/npgallery.html and wondered if you might be interested in mentioning my grammar checker? It's located here: http://www.grammarcheck.net/ It's totally free, checks for grammar and spelling mistakes, and gives instant feedback. Please have a look at it before you decide. That would be awesome. Thanks!

Re: Addition to BSDstats
I was just thinking about it, and one point that I don't know if I've ever made (or haven't made in awhile) is that BSDStats looks at who is *using* a *BSD variant, not who *was* ... it relies on being run *at least* once a month for a server to be counted ... if you run it once and never run it again, you only count for that *period*, but fall off the radar relatively quickly. Basically, if someone installed FreeBSD 2 years ago, installed the port and then switched to Linux a year later, even though they are still listed in the system, they are not part of the 'current' states, as they are no longer reporting ... That is why the initial install puts it into /usr/local/etc/periodic/monthly, so that it hopefully gets run *at least* at the beginning of each month ... it can be run more often over the month, it will still count as *1* install, but it needs to be run *at least* once a month for a machine to continue to be counted ...

The backend to bsdstats.org is load balanced behind an haproxy backend, with only the IP of haproxy being passed back into it ... one of the key issues that was brought up from day one was security and anonymity(sp?) of those submitting, and we've taken that *very* seriously ... other then the tokens that are passed back to present individual systems, we do not record anything (or see anything) about the reporting servers ...

To fix this, either re-install the older library version (this is what you surely do NOT want because of OpenOffice), or upgrade all applications that depend on the jpeg library. Tools like portmaster or portupgrade can help you with this, so you don't need to upgrade everything manually. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ 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"

Now problems with mouse and sound (Re: In addition to -> 7.2 panic during installation : AP #1 (PHY# 1) failed !)
Hi, After 6-7 reboots, I managed to get the 7.2-RELEASE installation media to boot and install properly. 2 issues still remain however. 1) No sound : My Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-US2H board has onboard Realtek High Definition Audio. Since I couldn't figure out which driver would work with this, I put sound_enable=YES and snd_driver_load=YES in loader.conf to load all available drivers. Gnome's Volume Control applet still remains crossed out in red, which would mean the system couldn't locate an appropriate driver. 2) No mouse : I am using a Logitech USB mouse and my rc.conf has moused_enable=YES, along with entries for the AUTO protocol and the /dev/ums0 device. However, at boot-time I get the message "Module uhub/ums failed to load : 17" followed by a complaint by moused that /dev/ums0 does not exist. There is no mouse cursor on the console at the time I get to the login prompt. There is a wierd way however of getting the mouse to work. Change it from one USB port to another 1-2 times and finally the kernel picks up the mouse and creates /dev/ums0, after which the cursor appears and the mouse works okay. But I have to do this everytime I boot FreeBSD, which doesn't look an attractive option at all. Can somebody please help me with either/both of these issues ? Thanks in advance.

The same setup is > assumed in the scenario using pfauth (or is it authpf). It sounded a little bit like perhaps he wants to dynamically allow services temporarily, but firewall them off (using a local machine firewall rather than a dedicated firewall) all other times. Hazarding a guess, maybe this is due to the common SSH brute force attacks? :) If the firewall is PF, it's simple enough to include a table of IPs for which the service is allowed, and make the CGI on the webpage issue a "pfctl -t -T add $ENV{REMOTE_IP}" command. A separate process could watch the logs for an ssh logout and remove the IP from the table when a logout from that IP occurs. It's a dirty solution. If the problem is specifically the SSH attacks, there are better ones (denyhosts, or pf rules to block IPs dynamically when they connect too frequently), but you're right--it's hard to give good answers when the problem is so ill-defined.

Generally the problem is that web pages are stateless, so your firewall won't know when to remove the ip again.

People will only need to authenticate first time. You can decide to expire their accounts and revoke access after a given time with a cron-job if you like.

rcng, addition to rc.subr
I am changing /etc/rc.subr. I can now use rc.env.d directories. Each file in the directory becomes a variable. somewhat like daemontools envdir. It seemed nice to include it to rcng. So with this we can do: echo 'yes' > rc.env.d/sshd/sshd_enable Am concidering adding the "$_command' name to the variables if there is no _ in the file name. Then we could do: echo yes > rc.env.d/sshd/enable Here is the script: #custom rc.env.d #used to overide/configure last variables using rc.env.d if [ -d /data/etc/rc.env.d/"$_command" ]; then debug "rc.env.d /data/etc/rc.env.d/${_command}" envd_vars=`ls /data/etc/rc.env.d/"${_command}"` #each file is a var for envd_file in $envd_vars do if [ -f /data/etc/rc.env.d/"$_command"/$envd_file ]; then export $envd_file=`head -1 /data/etc/rc.env.d/${_command}"/$envd_file` fi done #echo "rc.env.d /data/etc/rc.env.d/${_command}" fi Does this look ok to you ?

Broken apache after upgrade and addition of php4.
I am running FBSD 4.11 with Apache 1.3.33-ssl, now upgraded to 1.3.34-ssl after doing a cvsup plus portupgrade. All continued to work well, with the new 1.3.34 (but not sure if I had done a reboot to put new program into play). I then added php4 via the mod-php4 port. After rebooting, Apache would not run, claiming syntax error in the config file I had added a couple of lines to httpsd.conf as per instructions at the end of the php4 install (have since commented them out again), but httpsd refuses to run.Cannot find any "accidental" changes to the config file and am stumped.

Has the "ports team" ever considered including the date/time of when the port was added or modified? This could be displayed as a time code, such as "20031118" (today's date) and appear on the line that says: Description : Sources : Package : Changes : Download [2] I do not understand the usefulness nor see the "beauty" of the current method of installing ports. Why must a user download elementary "instructions" for programs A, B, C, D, through Z when all he or she may want are programs P and Q which require libraries B, C, D, and E? In other words, have the people in the know ever considered making it possible to download one tarballed directory, whose Makefile could figure out which other tarballed directories are needed and "fetch" them in sequence? This seems far simpler than 19 megs of unnecessary files that may never be used possibly.

Recompile both from the same sources. Kris msg15723/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: Addition
can you give us `uname -a` outputs? try recompiling your kernel. config the kernel, and do a make depend and make install. that's the old school way of doing it. I think now you can cd into /usr/src and do `make kernel`, it will build and install a new kernel for you. /ayn On 0, Doron Shmaryahu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > sorry the error from ps: > > ps ax > ps: proc size mismatch (61248 total, 1060 chunks) > > and this is the last line of dmesg > > link_elf: symbol fw_one_pass undefined > > Thanks again > > Doron Shmaryahu > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message -- andrew y ng <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://andrewng.com independent computer consultants http://aynassociates.com msg15711/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
