On Sun, 22 Jul 2012 15:31:51 -0500 (CDT) Robert Bonomi articulated: Yes, in theory, they _could_ learn everything they need to know to do it themselves, but the list of things that a 'know nothing' Windows user has to dig out, understand, and _use_, is incredibly long and daunting. I know plenty of dumber than dirt *.nix users too. Stupidity is not limited to race, color, sex or operating system. Actually, they are smart enough to get themselves an OS that actually works with virtually all modern hardware and without having to spend countless [hours | days | weeks] attempting to getting such hardware up and running before eventually giving up in some cases. You might have heard about N protocol wireless devices that until fairly recently FreeBSD didn't even know existed. Even now the support is limited; however, that is another story. In any case, that is not the subject of this this reply. I have found HDDerase.exe http://cmrr.ucsd.edu/people/Hughes/SecureErase.shtml to be a useful and in the most important criteria to the FOSS crowd, free.

It's great, but the PC-BSD user manual is not up to the level of the FreeBSD manual. In the latter I have found, as you all suggested, all the necessary information. I haven't set the network up yet but I expect to be able to run both server and client NFS on each machine to enable networking both ways. They are all laptops of one sort or another (Asus eee, Toshiba Satellite, late model Sony Vaio) and it sort of depends on where I sit which machine needs to be client and which server, if that makes any sense. Perfect sense. One thing I'd expect PC-BSD to have (or at least to make easy to enable) is Apple-esque zeroconf networking. That means you should be able to plug a new build machine into your network, and it will discover other machines on the net and give you the ability to mount filesystems, or print to attached printers, and all without having a designated central controlling server. I take it this is the sort of thing you mean by setting up your network? As I look, yes, PC-BSD does have such a thing, and it has a network browser built into it, too. It almost looks like it is designed to use Samba even between BSD machines; does this make sense? This is a very attractive model as it is very simple from the user point of view. You don't necessarily need to have any dedicated servers, although such things as a DHCP server are still useful (I suspect your broadband router probably has that function). On the other hand, it is probably a bit harder to set up than a strict client-server setup with dedicated servers. It is attractive, but I don't see any way to configure exported filesystems other than going back to NFS, which is all right, but I'm trying to understand what this other option might mean to me. The key software requirement here is to set up multicast DNS. There are a number of packages in the ports to do this -- mDNSresponder, howl, but what I'd recommend is avahi as it is best integrated with other software packages. For the shared networking thing, you can use samba between FreeBSD machines, but you'll need to build samba from ports since the AVAHI option isn't enabled by default. As you may know, PC-BSD has a system they call PBI (Push Button Installation) to install pre-built packages via a software manager app on the system. Needless to say, it does not offer all 23K+ ports. There is a .PBI version of Samba; I wonder if it has Avahi enabled by default.

Re: freebsd-questions Digest, Vol 390, Issue 3
According to Galati, Michael mcg+f...@sulfegate.org on Wed, 11/23/11 at
00:40:
If you still have trouble compiling, you could always do a fresh
install off one of the 9.0-RC2 images on a spare machine (or on
virtual machine; VirtualBox works well for this), and build the
sources there. Once the make build{world,kernel} steps complete, copy
(or export over NFS) /usr/{src,obj} to the machine to be upgraded, and
do the usual make install{kernel,world} (and mergemaster) steps.
I just did this just yesterday to bring a test box up from stable/8 to
stable/9; worked like a charm. YMMV.
Apparently freebsd-update(8) works for binary updates as well, but
I've never used it (check the release announcement on freebsd-current
or freebsd-stable from the 17th).
Good luck! ^_^'
Thanks. I am now happily running 9.0-PRERELEASE (!) and finally past
all those weird bsdinstall issues. What a mess! Thanks for all the
replies and help. I didn't use anything other than what I view as the
standard (t/m) way to upgrade: csup-of-stable/buildworld/installworld
which method has always worked in the past for me, but had trouble in
the attempt to upgrade to a 9.x variant before it was ready for prime
time. I would not normally have done this, but there were extenuating
circumstances that required the attempt. Thanks again. :-)

It doesn't hurt to make things harder for someone in addition to your other measures (strong passwords, large keys, limited network ranges etc) Actually, security through obscurity is always bad. The fact, however, is that something that could be used for security through obscurity is not automatically always a security through obscurity measure. Are you using a nonstandard port assignment for security, or just to make your logs cleaner? If you realize that moving SSH to a nonstandard port will not in any way protect you from a targeted attack, and only do so to clean up logs and reduce local SSH daemon activity from pointless low-hanging fruit attacks, while using other (better) techniques to actually properly secure the box, you aren't using employing a security through obscurity plan at all. Security through obscurity isn't the technique; it's the purpose to which a technique is directed. If what you're doing isn't intended as a security measure, it's something other than security through obscurity, and you shouldn't beat yourself up over it. If you have no specific need to keep SSH on 22, definitely move a public-facing SSH server to a nonstandard port, for reasons unrelated to actual intrusion security. -- Chad Perrin [ original content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ] pgpwkEgeduOxT.pgp Description: PGP signature

here's a very basic script for showing supported branches:

print Supported branches of FreeBSD:\n\n;
my @content = split /\n/,

Re: freebsd-questions Digest, Vol 362, Issue 7
I had to do this same thing over 10 years ago, once at work and once at home. At home, I copies ksh and gave it root privileges so it could do the suid . At work, a root person lent me the use of a binary program (with root privileges) that I used to execute ksh (I believe). My memory of this is hazy, so I don't recall if that was a standard program there or it was a special one that he created.

Re: freebsd-questions Digest, Vol 360, Issue 10
Does anyone know if this will ever be supported for FreeBSD 8.x? I tried both the version in ports as well as the one directly from NVIDIA. No joy. Does anyone know of other possibilities? You might try putting the port's name in question into the body of your post. Anyway, is there a specific reason that you cannot use the latest version in the posts system, nvidia-driver-256.53_1? I believe that nVidia released a newer version last year, 270.41.06, but it is apparently not available in the ports system. You might want to check with da...@freebsd.org regarding that. All of the FreeBSD nVidia drivers are listed on: http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html. -- Jerry ✌ jerry+f...@seibercom.net Sorry. I should have mentioned that I'm using a GeForce FX 5200 card. Because of it's age, NVIDIA says that it need the the nvidia-driver-173..., but NVIDIA also says they do not have a version that works for FreeBSD 8.x. I was hoping someone in the FreeBSD community might have ported it.

If that's your issue then you may be better-off with the i386 version of FreeBSD. FreeBSD 8.x added the kernel features require by nvidia before they would implement a 64-bit version, but nvidia-driver-173 was already a legacy driver at that point. ___ 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

$ for i in {0..10..2}; do echo Welcome $i times; done
Welcome 0 times
Welcome 2 times
Welcome 4 times
Welcome 6 times
Welcome 8 times

but what's the magic for this? :

Welcome 0 times
Welcome 1 times

Welcome 5 times
Welcome 8 times

What's wrong with

How about a direct approach:
i=0;j=1
while true;do
echo Welcome $i times
i=`expr $i + $j`;if [ $j -eq 1 ];then;j=3;else;j=1;fi
done
Might want to pipe that to more or less.

Okay, per private correspondence, here's one that works for the rule (insert
your
own upper limit):
(( s = -3, d = -1 )) ; while (( i = ( s += 2 + ( d = -d ) ), i = 12 )) ; do
echo Welcome $i times
done
Yeah, this needs an explanation in the comments, and it might be tricky to
extend to other sequences. But I think I could do it for most reasonable ones.

My thoughts are this matters depending upon which mpm you choose to build into apache. The default is prefork, and it handles incoming requests by spawning child processes. The main shortcoming associated with this approach is resources such as database connections are not shareable between the child processes, e.g. each must have its own. So each incoming request has to fork a child, then build up, consume

I have read post in the past that say the list is not moderated or comments such as above. I was really hoping not to start a bikeshed discussion :( This is a spam / mail abuse issue, not one about content, and yes it's off-topic but needs dealing with. This list is not moderated and is open to posting by non-subscribers; it's been that way for a very long time, and arguing for moderation won't change anything - who would have the time, anyway? Some other freebsd lists are only open to posting by subscribers. But, then I try to post something and I get a you posting is awaiting moderator approval. There are some automatic checks; you can get that by cross-posting to too many lists (more than two or three IIRC); sending to too many recipients; posting to a list requiring subscription, maybe others. Then I get a email that my posting was rejected with comments that state I don't see what this has to do with FreeBSD. But, then we have these junk mail and forged mail issues, not to mention I see replies that go way off topic of FreeBSD.

In my case it seems not to be graylisting, but blacklisting; i.e. the mail is not delivered at all :-( Now, with the above reply, the mail of yesterday showed up in the list as well... what is this? Well, looking at the headers, it spent about 11 hours sitting at ms4-1.1blu.de. Once it was accepted at freebsd.org, it went out to the list in about 2 minutes. Received: from ms4-1.1blu.de (ms4-1.1blu.de [89.202.0.34]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EDF3F8FC1C for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Fri, 8 Jan 2010 05:57:09 + (UTC) Received: from [193.31.11.193] (helo=current.Sisis.de) by ms4-1.1blu.de with esmtpsa (TLS-1.0:DHE_RSA_AES_256_CBC_SHA:32) (Exim 4.50) id 1NSuhI-0004mn-4D for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Thu, 07 Jan 2010 16:54:52 +0100 Received: from current.Sisis.de (current [127.0.0.1]) by current.Sisis.de (8.14.3/8.14.3) with ESMTP id o07FspAW026325 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Thu, 7 Jan 2010 16:54:51 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from g...@unixarea.de) Now, not knowing what the configuration of ms4-1.1blu.de is like, I can only speculate that it tried to deliver to mx1.freebsd.org and, for whatever reason, failed at the initial attempt. [It's not greylisting by the FreeBSD mailservers, because they don't use it.] We can't see from this trace how many times ms4-1.1blu.de retried sending the message during that time -- typically it should try again after 15 or 30min and then keep trying again at that sort of interval or longer for up to 5 days. As they are using Exim, it's quite likely the message ended up in a stuck-message queue which would still keep retrying delivery, but at a much lower frequency. Without looking at the mail logs on mx1.freebsd.org we can't know why the message wasn't accepted. We can tell that it was temp-failed -- ie. you didn't get a bounce back with a permanent failure message. There are several mechanisms used with e-mail that might generate this sort of temp-fail response (SPF, DKIM -- but there are no indications freebsd.org uses these in the message headers) or else the problem might well have been a failure in the DNS -- if mx1.freebsd.org couldn't look up ms4-1.1blu.de or sisis.de then it wouldn't accept the message. This last scenario seems the most likely to me, especially since you say you've recently changed e-mail service provider.

The mc message: Confirmation Chosen display charset (Settings-Display bits) or source codeset (in mcedit ctrl-t) does not match one set via locale.

[FreeBSD Questions] Filesystem image as root
I have been thinking and experimenting for weeks, but I cannot figure this out. I have an Intel SS4200 NAS that I wish to use as a ZFS NAS with FreeBSD 8.0. The device has 4 SATA bays, and I don't want to use one for a UFS root disk. I don't want to use up hundreds of megabytes of RAM preloading an mfsroot that can never shrink. The single IDE connector is accessible via the legacy ISA ports, and is thus limited to PIO modes (about 1.6MB/sec max, even with an actual hard drive instead of a CF card). Performance is acceptable when using a geom_uzip image from a CF card on the IDE connector, as a lot of it ends up cached in RAM (and is evictable in case of memory pressure, unlike an mfsroot). Try as I might, I am unable to figure out how to use a uzip imagefile on UFS as a root filesystem, without dedicating a slice/partition to it. There seems to be nothing approximating GNU/Linux's pivot_root, and using a stub init (which cannot be a shellscript...?) to mdconfig and mount the image, then chroot to that to exec /sbin/init appears to lead to instant deadlock. I don't really like the idea of mounting the image somewhere below root, and using symlink spaghetti to get everything proper; especially since I wish to place such essentials as /sbin and /etc thereupon, which leads to a bit of a chicken-and-egg problem with setting up and mounting an image that contains its mdconfig and mount...

Re: freebsd-questions Digest, Vol 267, Issue 3
A bit of reading shows that ZFS, if it's stable enough, has some really great features that would be nice on such a large pile o' drives. See http://wiki.freebsd.org/ZFSQuickStartGuide I guess the last question I'll ask (as any more may uncover my ignorance) is if you need to use hardware RAID at all? It seems both UFS2 and ZFS can do software RAID which seems to be quite reasonable with respect to performance and in many ways seems to be more robust since it is a bit more portable (no specialized hardware). I've thought about this one a lot. In my case, the hard drives are in a separate enclosure from the server and the two had to be connected via SAS cables. The 9690SA-8E card was the best choice I could find for accessing an external SAS enclosure with support for 8 drives. I could configure it in JBOD mode and then use software to create a RAID array. In fact, I will likely do this to compare performance of a hardware vs. software RAID5 solution. The ZFS RAID-Z option does not appeal to me, because the read performance does not benefit from additional drives, and I don't think RAID6 is available in software. For those reasons I'm leaning toward a hardware implementation. Hi Maxim, RAID-Z2 is the RAID6 double parity option in ZFS. gr Arno I'm planning on doing something like this once I get 2 more 1TB drives. I'm going to try out a zfs RAID-Z not RAID-Z2, but yeah. I've been around openSolaris' docs on zfs it seems to be really robust, you can export it on one OS and import it on another (incase your root dies, or you want to migrate your disks to another box), you can take snapshots which are stored on the drive, but I'm sure you could send those files somewhere to be backed up. And if you have really important files you can create multiple copies of them automatically with ZFS. If you set it up with multiple vdevs, you can get a lot more speed out of disk I/O as well, because if you have like 2 raidz vdevs, it stripes them, so you can pull data faster from both. I can't remember if it was on this or another list, but there was a great discussion about the performance abilities/issues of zfs they had some good points like not using more than 8 drives per vdev such. Try it out both ways and see which is best. there are pro's con's to both, but it all depends on what you need for your solution. remember raid is not a form of back-up. so if this is for critical information, make sure you back-up as well.

If this is true - if this represents a failure to rebuild the index, instead of a failure to accurately record when the index was rebuilt - well, actually it's a problem in both cases just a much bigger one in the former.

Iwould like to use iSCSI. Is it possible to configure a server running FreeBSD as a iSCSI server (i.e., i mean as a target)? indeed it is as others have said. However, if all you need is a bunch of disk space accessible over the network, then FreeNAS would be a lot simpler to setup and maintain. Based on FreeBSD, iSCSI service built in, WEbGUI interface (but you can ssh in if you want to). one caveat, don't use it with USB external drives as it will lose connections as soon as you mount the 2nd USB drive. -- DA Fo rsythNetwork Supervisor Principal Technical Officer -- Institute for Water Research http://www.ru.ac.za/institutes/iwr/ ___ 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

based on Linus Torvalds (which we ALL know is RIGHT) states that when asked if the name GNU/Linux was justified: Well, I think it's justified, but it's justified if you actually make a GNU distribution of Linux ... the same way that I think that Red Hat Linux is fine, or SuSE Linux or Debian Linux, because if you actually make your own distribution of Linux, you get to name the thing, but calling Linux in general GNU Linux i I think is just ridiculous. (G)ot (N)othing (U)nique takes years since 1989 for http://is.gd/zGZh Hope this helps. thanks Saifi. And in the end, the world almost never heard of Linux and would have had BSD everywhere. Linus stated that he prob would have never made Linux if the litigation around BSD 4.4 had ended earlier. But why he feels like he can take over the GNU OS just because he made the kernel never made sense to me.

Actually, in most parts of the world, news are still freely available with many ISPs (you may have to ask them explicitly), except for alt.binaries.* which are quite bandwidth intensive. i'm connected to university network (commercially, not as a student ;), i have all their service included in price. alt.binaries.* too, don't know if all of them as i don't use it. Your typical small ISP would rather save the bandwidth it takes to transfer all articles, esp. if only a fraction of them are accessed nntpcache is exactly for this. it's like squid, just for nntp it's worth even with 1 nntp user, and it takes 5 minutes to configure. -- Message: 3 Date: Mon, 9 Mar 2009 07:14:26 -0700 From: George Davidovich free
