Please don't "Top Post". It makes following the thread more difficult
than it needs to be.

As for 'Mailscanner', the only real problem is that it is not on
Wietse's Christmas card list. Mailscanner is regularly lambasted on
the Postfix forum. You might want to ask your question regarding its
suitability for your particular configuration there, and possibly on
the Mailscanner forum directly. Obviously, these two opposing groups
disagree as to whom to attribute any problems that arise between the
interaction of these two programs.

Actually, Outlook can be configured to place replies at the bottom of
a replied to message.

I am amazed though that you have not been able to figure out how to
navigate to the bottom of a message before starting your reply.
Doesn't  or some such combination work on GMail? If not,
then why use a broken MUA anyway? Besides, how long can it take to
position the cursor at the end of a message? Certainly less time than
it took to write it.

Now GMail users will claim that they don't use Firefox and therefore
are not able to use the addon, thereby effectively enabling them to
continue to 'top post'. Heck, if they cannot scroll to the bottom of a
page or use a simple shortcut combination, I would find it hard to
believe that they could actually download and install a Firefox addon.

While his reply may not have been the most cordial that I have seen, it was
nevertheless quite on point. I have used Vista and IE7 to connect to FBSD
without incident. It therefore becomes evident that the problem is germane to
you rather than the whole FBSD group at large.

Did you actually read the link given to you in an earlier post? You might also
try contacting your ISP and see if there is a problem there. You could also
just use another browser that is more tolerant than IE7 appears to be in this
incident.

If you reply again, please lose the 'top posting' format. It makes following

Please define 'administrator privileges' and how it is used at your place of
employment. I know of several instances where simply using a piece of software
that was not pre-authorised by the proper personnel, usually the SA, will get
you fired. Most system administrators do not want their systems polluted with

I have used both without any major problems. I usually run portupgrade to do
normal port upgrading; however, every so often, I run 'portmanager -u -p -l'
which seems to catch a lot of discrepancies in the builds and corrects them.
Other than that, both programs seem to work quite well. If you use portmanager,
do use the '-l' switch to force a log file. It comes in handy if something
goes wrong.

For starters, you should read the Postfix documentation. You might also try
posting on the Postfix forum. Check out http://postfix.com for further details.

Now, before you go any further, the log file is telling you that your
'transport' is out of date. You have to run 'postmap' on it and then restart
Postfix to get it corrected. Try: 'postmap /usr/local/etc/postfix/transport'
assuming that your transport map is named 'transport'. This will update the
mapping.

You should always supply the complete output of: "postconf -n" when asking
help regarding Postfix. It saves a lot of time.

Victor would know. I suggest that you paste the output of all your CRON jobs,
and perhaps the /etc/rc.conf' file so we can review them. You might also try,
as root, issuing this command: 'atq'. See if anything is listed.

By the way, have you modified any of the startup scripts; i.e., files in
'/usr/local/etc/rc.d'?

1) Did you install Postfix from ports?

2) Did you read the information available at:

http://www.csua.berkeley.edu/~ranga/notes/freebsd_postfix.html
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mail-changingmta.html

3) Are you now implying that postfix starts even though you have it disabled in
the /etc/rc.conf file?

You should not have had Sendmail and postfix running at the same time anyway.

Besides you /etc/rc.conf file, do you also have a /etc/rc.conf.local file? If
so, what does it contain. I am assuming that you never touched the
/etc/defaults/rc.conf file. If you did alter it, that was a mistake.

Postfix is not simply starting on its own. Somewhere, somehow, something is
starting it.

Unfortunately, not all CPAN modules are available in the ports collection.
That leaves just two readily available avenues open.

1) Become a maintainer and port the module to FreeBSD. This is a rather time
consuming process that while it has its advantages, it is certainly not
advantageous for a user who needs the module installed now.

2) Use CPANPLUS to install the module.

Unless the user has the time, knowledge and motivation to do the first, the
second approach is usually superior.

Just my 2¢.

You have to add them. Please read /usr/ports/mail/postfix/pkg-message  for
further details. That is the last stable version of Postfix, by the way. The
beta version is under 'postix-current'. You should also check out:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mail-changingmta.html

I had a similar problem. I used the following knobs:

WITH_DBM=bdb
WITH_BERKELEYDB=db44

I installed the latest version of of DB, version db46 and changed the know
accordingly, When I attempted to reinstall the port, I received the same
message you are receiving. It appears that the port will not accept the db46
version. I read the ports Makefile, and version db46 is not listed. I did
contact the port maintainer regarding this; however, I never received a reply.
I am thinking of filing a PR.

In any case, I went back to using the older version, db44,  without any 
problems.

 Make sure you only have apache-2.2.x installed, check the portmanager.log

Please don't top post. If you don't know what that means, Google for it.

Now, could you please post the portmanager log. You need only post the
sections that directly relate to Apache.

I agree; however, that would not explain the OP's reason for omitting a subject
for his post. I suppose that the OP could have forgotten to include one. In
that case, many MUAs have the ability to warn the sender if the subject line
is left uncompleted. It would appear as if the OP should investigate if his
MUA offers that feature. If not, then perhaps he should invest in one that
does.

Error message with "denyhosts"

[Gerard]

I just installed 'denyhosts' on a FBSD-6.2 machine. I thought I had followed
the directions correctly, however, I continually see an  error message popping
up on the screen. This is a line fro the /var/log/auth.log file.


Dec  9 10:56:01 scorpio sshd[1477]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 1: missing 
":" separator

This is the top of my /stc/hosts file:


/sshd

All I added were the two lines preceding "ALL : ALL : allow". What could be

If you are using Postfix, placing the following in the 'main.cf' file can
significantly reduce the potential regarding relaying from Apache. Of course,
insure that the group is correct.

First, what version of 'portmanger' are you using? If not "0.4.1_9",
then update. Did you insure that you updated your ports tree just
prior to running portmanager?

After checking the above, try running portmanager like this:

 portmanager -u -l -p -y

See if that corrects the problem.

Please don't top post. If you don't know what that means, Google for it.

If the OP has 'dovecot' all ready installed, that might be a viable
option. Otherwise, he would be better off to simply configure SASL2
correctly.

I would strongly recommend that the OP reads the Postfix documentation
on SASL as well as visiting:
<http://postfix.state-of-mind.de/patrick.koetter/saslfinger/> and
downloading and running the 'saslfinger' utility. He can then post the
output preferably the Postfix forum, or else here.

Use 'virtual' for all users, local or not if Postfix is employed. It
makes setting up the system a whole lot easier and potentially more
secure.

Setting up SSL/TLS on Postfix is really trivial. I use it myself.
Again, it increases the security factor.

Error message with hp-toolbox

[Gerard]

I am getting an error message when using the hp-toolbox (print/hplip)
version 2.7.12 on a FreeBSD-6.3 machine. When I start the program, this
is displayed:

Mar 10 16:49:57 scorpio python: hp-toolbox[35348]: error: Invalid
locale: C.utf8

Next, when I click on the 'Send FAX' button, this is displayed:

Mar 10 16:50:51 scorpio python: hp-fab[35369]: error: Invalid locale:
C.utf8
Mar 10 16:51:10 scorpio python: hp-fab[35371]: error: Invalid
locale: C.utf8

In any case, the message is faxed correctly, so I assume that the error
message is really just a warning. Is there anything that I can do to
correct this problem or should I just ignore it?

Thanks!

That kind of sucks. The idea is to  simply click on a link and have it
work. Adding extra software to accomplish what is already being done on

The simple fact that a site or precess requires 'flash' to display

US-CERT Warning

I seems that US-Cert has issued a 'High Vulnerability' warning regarding
FreeBSD. This is the URL:

http://www.us-cert.gov/cas/bulletins/SB08-091.html

A snippet of the warning:

Multiple integer overflows in libc in NetBSD 4.x, FreeBSD 6.x and 7.x,
and probably other BSD and Apple Mac OS platforms allow
context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via large values
of certain integer fields in the format argument to (1) the strfmon
function in lib/libc/stdlib/strfmon.c, related to the GET_NUMBER macro;
and (2) the printf function, related to left_prec and right_prec.

I have the WRT150N myself; however, the setup is virtually the same. By
the way, are you sure that you want to invest the time is using a 'G'
protocol router? The 'N' version is readily available, much faster and
has a greater range.

Anyway, I used a Windows box to do the initial
configuration/installation of the router. Visit the linksys site and get
the latest installer package:

http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Satellite?c=L_CASupport_C1&childpagename=US%2FLayout&cid=1166859678292&pagename=Linksys%2FCommon%2FVisitorWrapper&lid=7829237314L06

Obviously, that should be all one line. After downloading and running
the installed, download and run the updater program. It works on your
router and might very well have an updated firmware for you.

Now that the router is working, you can start configuring it for your
network.

The OP stated, or at least I assumed that he meant that the network was
rather extensive. Using cables, while it might provide a faster data
transfer, could easily cost more to implement. If the OP can get the
wireless network up and running easily enough, he might very well save
a considerable amount of time. Since he did not provide a schematic of
his network, that is just a guess.

I find that assumption grossly inaccurate. I have experienced
difficulties numerous times trying to access financial institutions
without a working flash plug-in. I just had another bad experience with
a linksys site using Opera:

http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Satellite?c=L_CASupport_C1&childpagename=US%2FLayout&cid=1175238286492&pagename=Linksys%2FCommon%2FVisitorWrapper&lid=8649286492H30&displaypage=download

The lack of an easy to install and maintain flash program is one of the
main reasons I maintain a WinXP machine. Not the only reason perhaps,
but nevertheless an important one.

I am showing newer versions for several of the ports listed. Update
your ports tree, then make sure you are in fact using the latest version
of 'portupgrade' before attempting to build the port again.

I would think so. At the very least, there are no doubt several

What version of portmanager are you running? The last one is '0.4.1.9' I
believe. It might have been nice if you had also posted any pertinent
portions of the log file also. There was a looping problem in a very
old version of portmanager; however, supposedly it had been corrected.
Portmanager will not update itself if I remember correctly. I believe
you have to do it manually.

I might suggest the following.

Assuming you have the latest version of portmanager:

1) Update your ports tree
2) Clean out '/usr/ports/distfiles'
   Not really necessary; however, it cannot hurt.
3) If available, run: portsclean -CDLP
4) Run: portmanager -u -p -y -l

Good Luck!

You only need: samba_enable="YES" in the /etc/rc.conf file to make
samba start automatically upon reboot, or even if it is started
manually for that matter.

If you need 'windbindd, that is enabled separately.

If you need shares mounted automatically, you can put them in
the /etc/fstab file. See the Samba documentation or subscribe to the
Samba list.

I have done something similar to that myself. Go to the linksys site

I placed the following in my ~/.bash_profile file.

# This is the .bash_profile file
# Read on bash login and similar to .profile
# This file passes control to the '.bashrc' file if it is present

if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
. ~/.bashrc
fi

Then in my ~/.bashrc file, I created an alias:

alias su='su -m'

Now, whenever I go to root, the environment is not modified and I still
have bash as my shell. I don't know if this will work for you or not.
It should not hurt to try it.

Have you checked user/group ownership? I think it has to be root/wheel.
It should also be executable, 0755 if I remember correctly.

The constant mangling of information is definitely making it much
harder to diagnose his problem. He would probably be better of posting
the unedited output of: 'postconf -n' along with any pertinent log
entries, error messages, etc. He probably should just move the entire
thread to the Postfix forum anyway. They are really more adept at
handling this since it does, at least partially, pertain to Postfix.

PHP crashing on FBSD-6.3

[Gerard]

I am continuing to have a problem with PHP crashing. It will not even
print out its version number without a dump. This is an example of the
crash:

~ $ php -v
PHP 5.2.6 with Suhosin-Patch 0.9.6.2 (cli) (built: May 24 2008 13:55:49)
Copyright (c) 1997-2008 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2008 Zend Technologies
Segmentation fault: 11 (core dumped)


Due to this problem, I cannot update 'pear' or any of the other PHP
related ports. I have tried removing PHP completely and reinstalling
it; however, that has not alleviated the problem. I am now unable to
access phpMyAdmin or other utilities that utilize PHP. I am using the
default port config file with apache support.

I am hoping that someone has an idea of what I could do to correct the
situation.

The same thing can be said for virtually any software publisher. They
all tend to complete and rush out the door the version written for the
OS they are primarily interested in. Then, and all too often, complete a
substandard version for other operating systems. Try getting an
up-to-date version of claws-mail for Windows for instance. It doesn't
exist. The same can be said about a lot of other software as well. It
is just the nature of the beast.

The market for printers is a very competitive one. Any manufacturer has
to factor in the cost of the base machine, plus addition components, so
as to compute a selling price that will be competitive with his
competition. A manufacturer could easily load up his product will all
the RAM he wanted; however, if he could not sell the product, or at
least a sufficient number of them to turn a profit, then that effort
would be for naught.

Personally, I have not found the secondary RAM market to be all that
expensive anyway. If there is no need to spit out 24 sheets per minute,
then why waste the resources on it?

Thanks. I had already figured out what was causing it, and have
subsequently disabled the file from running.

I have no idea why it is being run on every boot either. It does seem

claws-mail & ClamAV-devel

[Gerard]

FreeBSD-6.2
ClamAV-Devel-20070617
claws-mail-2.10.0

Has anyone gotten claws-mail-2.10.0 to work with ClamAV devel 20070617?

When I try to configure claws-mail and load the clamav module, the
system hangs. I have tried running 'gdb' but without any useful
results.

Building claws-mail with the debug flag has not helped either. The
backtrace still does not list any symbols.

The older version of claws-mail did work with this version ClamAV.

This is the output of gdb.

'clamav-plugin' & claws-mail

[Gerard]

I thought I had posted this earlier, however, I have not seen it
listed.

When attempting to load the 'clamav plug-in' with 'claws-mail-2.10.0_1'
the system will freeze. GDB did not reveal any useful information
according to the developers. Using truss, I find I get this error
message:


Fatal error 'Thread is not system scope.
' at line 319 in file /usr/src/lib/libpthread/thread/thr_sig.c (errno = 0)


Googling has not turned up any definitive answers. I am not sure what
this error message means. Perhaps someone has an idea.

Probably should be:

IGNORE|databases/mysql41-server|

See if that works. The '*' after "server" might be screwing thing up.

Ypu might try this also:

IGNORE|databases/mysql4*|

That should prevent any version '4' of mysql being build.

Could you post the relevant portions of the httpd.conf file?

I have the following in mine and phpMyAdmin works fine.

You would undoubtedly have to modify your 'Allow from' line to

I employed Windows for years before ever venturing to try FBSD. Doing
that time I subscribed to numerous mailing list. I fail to see any
correlation between migrating from a Windows based OS to a FBSD one has
to do with subscribing to a list. Anyone, with the possible exception
of an AOL'er and an occasional Googler could accomplish that feat.
Compromising the fundamental security and privacy of the end user is
more important than servicing those who lack the ability and or
ambition to subscribe to a mail forum like this.

Before you start asking questions regarding configuring Postfix, it
might behoove you to check out the Postfix documentation site

Have you tried posting on the 'Spamassassin' list also? That is

Make absolutely sure your environment has no extraneous cruft from earlier 
builds. This is simple enough.

# chflags -R noschg /usr/obj/usr
# rm -rf /usr/obj/usr
# cd /usr/src
# make cleandir
# make cleandir
Yes, make cleandir really should be run twice.

Then restart the whole process, starting with make buildworld.

I believe you have to precede these with a colon and space; i.e. ": "

You might be better served asking this question on the Dovecot forum.
In any case, from the Dovecot web site, when requesting help, supply
these:

1) Mention the Dovecot version number. Use dovecot --version to get it.

2) Use dovecot -n output when showing your configuration.

3) It lists only the main settings in dovecot.org though, so if you've
a SQL/LDAP related problem get their configuration with

grep -v '^*\(#.*\)\?$' dovecot-sql.conf

It is also a hugh waste of time. Doing the initial system installation,
there should be an option at the very least to enable SMP. Installing
a system, then having to rebuilt and and reinstall it again if counter
productive.

The market is moving toward multiple CPUs. The FBSD installation routine
should embrace that reality and afford it the proper consideration that
it deserves.

OK, I installed 'tightvnc' from ports. That went OK.

Then, I started the process by entering: 'vncserver' at the command
prompt on the FBSD machine. The first time this ran it asked for
information which I provided. Now when I invoke it, it runs silently.
This is the contents of the log file it creates.

I have the following in the 'putty' configuration

Under SSL / X11, I have this:

X Display location: localhost:0
I have tried with both: Enable X forwarding checked and unchecked
without any difference.

Under SSH / Tunnels, I have this:

L5905 192.168.0.2:5901

I am not sure about the port # 5905. I simply copied it from a example I found.
I have tried 5901, 5900 and 5902 all without success.

There is no notification when I actually log onto the remote machine
other than what I normally receive. If I try: 'startx', all I get is a
lot of text output on the screen, although the application does start on
the remote PC.

Now, I can make a connection via HTTP and do get a login box. In fact,
that seems to be the only way I can make a successful connection.
Therefore, I am positive the VNC is working, just not with putty.

Obviously I am doing something really stupid.

Thanks!

How to build program with debug symbols

[Gerard]

FreeBSD-6.2

I need to know how to build a program with debugging symbols. The
problem I am having is that claws-mail-2.7.2 continually crashes but
does not display any debug symbols. I talked with the claws-mail people,
and they advised me to build a version with debug symbols since the
output I supplied them was useless without it. Their suggestion was that
I build from a tarball and use the proper ‘config’ flags to get debug
symbols included in the program. The problem is that I would rather not
mess with that scenario, but rather use the port version instead. The
port version does have an option to build a debug version, but
apparently, the symbols are stripped out when the program is installed.

The port maintainer suggested that I use this is the Makefile:

"STRIP= #empty"

However, he is not even sure if it will work. I just want to find out
what the best way to go about this is so that I can get this problem
resolved.

Thanks!

I think it could be more accurately stated that Intel, among others,

business design that would generate a similar bottom line, they would
seriously consider it. Nobody is going to throw resources at a losing or

Do you in your wildest dreams actually believe that will make an iota of

Because you have postfix configured wrong. I would need the output of

Are you subscribed to the postfix mail forum?

You can subscribe by sending an email to:

Place this is the body -- not the subject portion:

subscribe postfix-users

Then once you are subscribed submit your 'postconf -n' output along with
your OS version and postfix version. Include the relevant lines from the

By the way, I would still up date to the latest stable version before

If you want to do everything at once, use:

assuming Sendmail is running, else change restart to start. See

Tell me about it. I have been rebuilding my system most of the night and
it is still not completed. This is all because I updated 'Gaim' which
pulled in the updated 'gettext' which in turn hosed my system. According
to 'portmanager', I have over a hundred applications that need to be
fixed. I did get the logon fixed though by rebuilding 'gettext' and then
rebuild 'bash'. So, at least I can logon normally.

I dont use sendmail myself, but the smart host feature refers to the
SMTP of your service provider. Something like: "smtp.my-isp.com" sans
quotes. I am not sure if you can use the numeric address or not. In any
case, it would not be the one you have shown anyway. After configuring
it, type: "make all install restart" if it is running or replace
'restart' with 'start' if it is not.

Make sure you have to have sendmail properly activated in the
/etc/rc.conf file.

Try this:

1) Update your ports tree
2) portmanager -u -p -l

That should correct the problem. Check the log file
"/var/log/portmanager.log" to make sure the fetchmail port, and perhaps
others, were correctly updated.

By the way, I just had the same problem with the 'gettext' update. This
fixed it.
