Try
mount /dev/fd0c /mnt   (UFS floopy) 
or
mount -t msdos /dev/fd0c /mnt  (DOS FAT floppy)

It may work if your system is an earlier version; I think it was changed
to fd0 in 5.0.

FreeBSD.org website CMS

2004-08-25 Thread wesw
As a fan of FreeBSD, I suppose it's also no surprise that I like the FreeBSD.org 
website layout.

Hoping to implement and learn a website content management system (CMS) myself, I was 
wondering what software(s) FreeBSD.org uses to manage their vast website?

I apologize if this information is posted on the site, but after looking for it for 
some time I still came up empty-handed.

Thank you so much for your time.

 I apologize if this information is posted on the site, but after looking for it for 
 some time I still came up empty-handed.

The site is built out of cvs at regular intervals -- different parts
of the site get rebuilt with different frequencies.  Take a look at
the www section of the FreeBSD cvs repository for details of how the
main parts are managed:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/www/

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/www/share/mk/web.site.mk

Mostly it's just a case of checking out the www collection from cvs,
and then running 'make' at the top level.  A lot of the html is
generated by doing XSLT transforms of XML input, or by processing SGML
input -- the XML stuff tends to be more recent, and seems to be slowly
taking over.

Large chunks of the website come out of the documentation project: see
the FreeBSD Documentation Project Primer for details of how they
generate the required output:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/fdp-primer/index.html

The FDP stuff is produced by processing SGML sources: it can be
turned into web pages, as here; or into PDF etc. for printing out in
book format.

Finally, take a look at the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list, where the
project's webmasters tend to hang out:

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-www/2004-August/

There's quite a lot of cross-over between that list, and
[EMAIL PROTECTED] as you might expect.

Cheers,

Matthew

My understanding is that you have to be an official committer to

**heads-up** : likely spam using [name]@freebsd.org

2004-05-18 Thread epilogue

http://people.freebsd.org/~yar/ is a valid URL, because yar is indeed a
committer.

this said, something (read: mailer-daemon error) tells me that
yar's e-mail below (bottom) is not quite right.  haven't bothered to open
the attachement and don't really see the point, given the virus comment in
the bounce reply.

perhaps this is already old hat.  perhaps it is just my mistake. 
nevertheless, i thought that you might appreciate a heads-up that some
spammer(s) may now be highjacking freebsd.org addresses in an attempt to
get us to open their attachments.

This happends all the time, with @freebsd.org addresses, @symantec.com 
adresses, with @cisco.com adresses , even with @elvandar.org adresses, 
more strict, my personal adres is used often...

Virusses are getting other's userinformation now, and use that to try 
and infect people like us. Since some of us (me oa) know that this is a 
virus, we don't open it. But some people might get misled by it. The 
goal of the writer had been achieved then.

Try to delete them and update your virusscanner regularly and you would

Sure.  It's quite simple.  All you do is this.

Become involved with the FreeBSD developmnt effort.  System, ports,
documentation of all three.  Produce a steady stream of high quality,
well prepared PRs fixing bugs or proposing enhancements.  Make a real
contribution to the project.  Eventually the other FreeBSD committers
will get tired of having to commit all your changes to the CVS
repository for you, and punish you by giving you a commit bit, and the
@FreeBSD.org address that goes with it.

Cheers,

Matthew

SORBS lists mx2.freebsd.org as open relay

2004-04-08 Thread Chris Shenton
I was adding RBL blacklisting to my qmail setup, with rblsmtpd using
some blacklists which a couple folks on inet-access suggested.  I
noticed it logging connections from mx2.freebsd.org as being in SORBS:

rblsmtpd: 216.136.204.119 pid 45632: 451 Open Relay See: 
http://www.dnsbl.sorbs.net/cgi-bin/lookup?IP=216.136.204.119

That web page indicates port 25 is an open relay, failing a test
on April 7 2004 01:46:38 GMT, relaying from [EMAIL PROTECTED], to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] 

I manually confirmed their test, it appears as if it's a relay. 
This seems surprising since I know you guys have clue.

When I test using some of my own addresses, it says

  Recipient address rejected: Relay access denied

So is mx2.freebsd.or intentionally relaying from/to SORBS? On purpose?
To fool it into thinking it's a relay when it's not? Any other ideas?

I'd like to use some semi-reputable RBLs but can't afford to block
freebsd mail. 

Thanks.

RE: SORBS lists mx2.freebsd.org as open relay

2004-04-08 Thread Dave Hart
This seems to have been fixed, at least the SORBS lookup webpage says
the listing is inactive and flagged to NOT be in DNS or similar.
However so far the authoritative servers for dnsbl.sorbs.net that I
queried are still returning the mx2 hit with their intentionally-painful
2 day TTL.

If you (used to) use SORBS blacklist, make a note on your calendar, in
theory in two days plus whatever slop they have updating their DNS, it
should be possible to use SORBS' open SMTP relay blacklist without
losing freebsd.org list traffic.

4.9R Install - Couldn't open FTP connection to ftp[#].freebsd.org: Not logged

2004-02-04 Thread Danny
Trying to install 4.9R from the boot floppies. The first NIC I tried was the
built-in Intel Pro 100 VE. dmesg displayed what I think was the NIC, because it
found the MAC address of the NIC and at that stage it was the only NIC device
plugged into the system.

So I gave up on the Intel NIC, because it would not resolve the FTP addresses, even
though, on the DNS server the address (of the FTP servers) was in the DNS cache.

Now I get:  Couldn't open FTP connection to ftp[#].freebsd.org: Network is down.
This is still on the Intel NIC.

I have now plugged in a DLINK DFE 530TXS, which shows up as

ste0 Sundance ST201 PCI ethernet card

And with it, I get: Couldn't open FTP connection to ftp[#].freebsd.org: Not logged
in

So I assume it is resolve the name OK, but just can't login. In addition, the NIC is
getting IP info from the DHCP server.

Therefore, I believe it's not a physical problem (lights are a blinkin'), nor a
logical one, because it gets an IP from the DHCP server, or at least retrieves this
information OK.

I have tried over a dozen of the ftp[1,2,3,4,5,6,ca, etc.].freebsd.org sites listed.

How can I make sure that I have network connectivity throughout the install?

How do I properly exit out of the connecting to the FTP part of the install that can
sit there paused for more than 15 minutes?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Not using FreeBSD it can't.  FreeBSD on PPC processors is under
development, but by no means ready for anyone to actually use yet.

You might have more luck over with our fiends at NetBSD, who do have
PPC ports available.  Don't know about installing over the 'net -- you
might have more luck by trying to find a way to replace your broken
brive with a cheap off-the-shelf alternative.

Cheers,

Matthew

To expand on another answer, you can install NetBSD for PowerPC over 
the net, but I think you need a floppy or some kind of startup image to 
boot from. And you have to be willing to poke around in the Open 
Firmware environment. And of course, there's Darwin 7.0.1, the core of 
OS X 10.3.

The best option is to fix or replace the drive, I think.

You can get combo drives for G3 iMacs on ebay or by visiting one of the

G3 imacs can netboot.. maybe you can do something with that as an

majordomo@FreeBSD.org rejecting messages from certain MUAs

2003-02-25 Thread Nathan J. Yoder

Whenever I send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I get the error:
550 Error: Message content rejected

After some experimentation I found out that my mail was being rejected
on be basis of my X-Mailer header which is:

X-Mailer: The Bat! (v1.62 Christmas Edition) Educational

I also tried:
X-Mailer: The Bat!

I tried both of these in a message with no other headers, and just a
single command in the body and they got rejected with the 550 error.
Trying a full fledged message without the X-Mailer, and a bare one
with Outlook Express as the X-Mailer and got no errors at all. So
what I'm wondering is, why is The Bat! getting rejected?

P.S. I just tried sending THIS message to freebsd-questions and it got
rejected from my MUA, so I suspect other freebsd.org lists do the same.
I'm only able to send this message by doing it by hand.

The best thing to do is take a look at the spam headers and post a
notice to [EMAIL PROTECTED] since the originator of the message is easy
to find by looking at the following:

: Received: from mail.FreeBSD.org (node-c-173f.a2000.nl [62.194.23.63])

:   (envelope-from [EMAIL PROTECTED])

That's what I did.  More than once.  Signing my messages with PGP too.

This very spammer has hit the lists more than once, and every time I
mailed {abuse|postmaster} at a2000.nl.  If they receive a few hundred
messages for each spam message they let through they will certainly
start acting fast :-)

So instead of replying to the lists, let abuse@ know.

I agree, but how do I run spam filtering locally?  
As an average desktop user, I simply use a client to POP mail from a
server -- are there client plugins that filter for spam?  I currently
use Evolution, but am willing to change if there a spam filter plugins
for other clients.

As a slightly-more-than-average desktop user, I just figured out
fetchmail to fetch a POP3 account to my local sendmail (base system,
default install, set for local deliver only).  Is SpamAssassin the
best way to go?  Is it a plugin for Sendmail?  If I'm going to start
messin' with my local MTA, should I try something besides Sendmail?  The
config options of Sendmail are somewhat daunting -- it seems like an
SMTP handler should be simpler.

Thoughts?

Unless Evolution can't grok usual mail formats (mbox, Maildir),
you'll want to do something like:

POP3 client - spam filter - disk - MUA

you don't need to change your MUA.

you don't need fetchmail to reinject the messages to sendmail just
to get them stored on the disk.

It's not that a bad idea, honestly, just don't use the default 5

I also have postfix hand mail to spamassassin before it's delivered to
cyrus. However, I found it even better to permban several (useless for
me) TLDs at the firewall level (*.es *.kr *.cn *.tw and several
southamerican countries) I'm aware you can't do that on a server like
FreeBSD's, but found it extremely useful on my own one. I, personally,
have never recieved a legit mail from any of those countries.

The spam problem is a touchy one, but I'm sure some meassures are taken
at the server level for the mailing lists. I once heard a SPAM attempt
hits the FreeBSD mail servers once a second.

The FreeBSD mail server ALREADY does a huge amount of spam filtering.
You're only seeing less than 1% of the spam that comes in.  The mail
server rejects about one spam *per second* to freebsd mailing lists.

Just add a SPAM filter at your end.  By the way, this works far
better if people don't *reply* to the SPAM, circumventing your
