help with AWk
The logic desired if
If IP has no PTR, print "PTR_NUL", else print the PTR.
dig +short -x 1.2.3.4 | awk '{if ( $0 == "" ) {print "PTR_NUL" } else {print $0
} }'
... works if PTR exist, but if no PTR, PTR_NUL doesn't print.

what else is needed to make ftp passive work
two machines on the same private network. ftp 10.0.0.24 Connected to 10.0.0.24. 220 mx1.fairhope.net FTP server (Version 6.00LS) ready. Name (10.0.0.24:username): 331 Password required for username. Password: 230 User username logged in. Remote system type is UNIX. Using binary mode to transfer files. ftp> ls 229 Entering Extended Passive Mode (|||64341|) at this point, there is a long delay, that eventually completes: 200 EPRT command successful. 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for '/bin/ls' ... and the rest of the ftp session runs fast. on the ftp server, if we "ipfw disable firewall", the ftp session runs without delay. in hosts file, both machines have both of their records, so we don't think the delay is query for PTR of either IP. our ipfw.rules: # stateful $IPF 50 check-state $IPF 60 allow tcp from any to any established $IPF 70 allow all from any to any out keep-state $IPF 80 allow icmp from any to any # open well-known ports # FTP $IPF 120 allow tcp from any to any 20 in $IPF 121 allow tcp from any to any 20 out $IPF 122 allow tcp from any to any 21 in $IPF 123 allow tcp from any to any 21 out In inetd.conf, we've added "-l -l -d" but don't get any ftpd debug info written to /var/log/messages or /var/log/xferlog or dmesg system buffer. So what else is needed inf our ifpw.rules for the ftpd params to get the switch to Extended Passive Mode to run quickly? thanks, Len __ IMGate OpenSource Mail Firewall www.IMGate.net ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

We're having tcp/ip failures with 8.2 as syslog-ng server. trafshow shows aggregate port 514 traffic hitting peaks of about 25K char/sec.

Other machines query the recursive server successfully. Without rebooting the FreeBSD VM, we do /etc/rc.d/netif restart /etc/rc.d/routing restart which allows full operation. dmesg and messages show no errors. Suggestions?

Because our mail users are not world travellers, we use PF to block sending IPs by country. Any IP that TCP connects x times in y minutes to your mail server gets blocked for z hours. Cracked passwords on our mail users seem to be stolen by infections or phished rather than obtained by brute force. Our sender rate-limiting has three levels Our outbound server (postfix + postfwd) has per-sender rate limiting, which has totally stopped the really high volume password cracks. We have 3 levels of rate limiting. 1. 2000 msgs limit for every sender. We chose 2000 by identifying a handful of legit habitual senders of up to 1500 msgs, who are whitelisted from rate-limiting for the following levels. 2. 700 msgs limit for senders who habitually send up to 500 msgs, who are whitelisted from the following limit. 3 50 msgs limit for all senders who are not whitelisted above. Rate limiting causes the msgs to be held, not discarded or rejected, with an alert msg to the mail admin, who then inspects the held msgs for releasing or deleting. All the cert and PIN stuff appears to be theoretical suggestions not based on experience, since while effective, it would be a practical nightmare of training and maintenance.

How did you update your ports collection? when running sysintall "upgrade" from cdrom to go from 4.7 to 4.10.

No, it doesn't. I can successfully perform a whois from here on your domain, but an nslookup/dig both fail.

Re: DNS server
Perhaps you need to do some research on the subject. perhaps you need to clarify your vagary There are a series of DNS systems ??? For a public domain.tld, the only two servers involved are : 1. the servers authoritative for .tld to publish the delegation and glue records for domain.tld. 2. the servers authoritative for domain.tld to answer authoritatively. Period. There are NO other servers involved, nor is there any "propagation". a domain needs to be added to before it will function correctly. This is known as propagation. the misnomer propagation is used by people who think DNS data needs time to be available, to "propagate", over several days or a week, for all of Internet. This is pure BS. There is no such concept in DNS.

Re: buildup of Windows time_wait talking to fbsd 4.10
Just off the top of my head... You mentioned the freebsd machine is the gateway. Do you have a firewall on the host blocking connections from the windows machine? a forgotten detail is that the windows machine sends just fine to the 4.10 gateway for a few minutes, but the time_wait inevitably builds up, so smtp access from windows to either gateway is ok. Do you have a different kernel configuration between 4.7 and 4.10? both GENERIC i.e. do you have something like ipdivert, etc in the kernel on one box and not the other? Can the windows machine ping the ip 192.168.200.59 as its a different class C? sure, basic connectivity is ok.

Then try installing that DB. However, wiser heads may have a better clue. Sounds like a good plan, but MCPAN doesn't seem to support uninstall of modules. "find" does show where modules are installed to uninstall them manually. I see MCPANPLUS supports uninstall. Dammit, this "simple" project of getting PERL to talk to db3 is like the ball of string. thanks Len ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Re: vm ware
=>Hi, > I want to inquire if its possible to install freeBSD on vm ware? > is there any live cd iso available? I've had no problems installing FreeBSD 6,7,8 as VM into ESXi 4.1 hypervisor. Latest success was using the VMWare cold converter .iso to virtualize a FreeBSD 6.2 physical machine and export it to ESXi 4.1 as VM. The trick that saves lot of pain and time post-virtualization was that we first edited /etc/fstab on the physical machine and replace the "sd" devices with "da" so FreeBSD kernel finds all the slices, then we shut it down to reboot with the cold converter. Then we look via the VMWare console of the FreeBSD VM /var/run/dmesg.boot file to see what interface the hardware probe found and fix up /etc/rc.conf. Then /etc/rc.d/netif restart /etc/rc.d/routing restart We are building a new VM with fbsd 8.1, but until then the 6.2 virtualization got us off an over-powered Pentium4 to an 8-core Xeon ESXi.

Re: What are the SMTP rules for sending mail to FreeBSD
Easier said than done. I've been assigned 66.45.116.136/29 by the ISP. .136 is not a power of 2 which is required for classless reverse delegation. It should be .132/29 or .140/29 I control DNS for quadtelecom.com, but I don't control the reverse lookup. I'd like to know the exact algorithm in use, so that I can negotiate with my ISP. For sub-Class C delegation, see the DNS & BIND book, 4th edition. 1. Your ISP creates a arbitrarily named node in the reverse domain and delegates the zone to you: tabak.116.45.66.in-addr.arpa. NS ns1.quadtelecom.com. tabak.116.45.66.in-addr.arpa. NS ns2.quadtelecom.com. 2. then for each ip in your tabak subzone he create a CNAME in his NS: 133.116.45.66.in-addr.arpa. CNAME 133.tabak.116.45.66.in-addr.arpa. . . . 139.116.45.66.in-addr.arpa. CNAME 139.tabak.116.45.66.in-addr.arpa. 3. then in your NS: 133.tabak.116.45.66.in-addr.arpa. PTR name.what.ever. . . . 139.tabak.116.45.66.in-addr.arpa. PTR hostname.some.dom. The rule is that the parent domain's CNAME rdata field must, of course, be matched the child domain's PTR owner field. For example, how are are hosts with multiple IP adresses handled? put only one PTR per ip.

Re: What are the SMTP rules for sending mail to FreeBSD
>_450_Client_host_rejected:_cannot_find_your_hostname,_[66.45.116.138] > Your mail server is identifying itself as [66.45.116.138] instead of a host with (valid) forward DNS records (hosts that do this are blocked as a -- very effective -- anti-spam measure). Fix your mail server to identify itself as gatehouse.quadtelecom.com and you should get past this filter. "hostname" is postfix jargon for HELO hostname, so are you saying he must correct his helo hostname? Unfortunately, postfix also uses the same phrase "cannot find your hostname" for the reject_unknown_client rejection of the envelope @sender.domain, where ip sending to postfix does not have matching PTR and A records.

Re: What are the SMTP rules for sending mail to FreeBSD
ISTR Postfix replies with 450 to (almost) all errors by default. And there are errors where you need to escalate the 4xx response to 554 to stop the sending MTA from re-trying for days, or just harvest the 4xx ip's to a new .map filean block with 554. Postfix's new "sender address verification" is extremely effective in blocking crap that used to get through, but it always returns 4xx so your reject counts go through the roof as SAV 4xx rejects are re-tried 100's of times. But, in fact, this is more of a resource consumption for the senders than it is on your MX. And the advantage of keeping this crap out of your system outweighs the higher rate of repeated rejects.

.sh interactive ok, from crontab, not
Trying to write a little watch-dog/keep-alive script for a couple of related daemons, an MTA and an SMTP AV scanner. This snippet works fine... if ( ps aux | grep -i "^root.*master" ) > /dev/null then echo "then: exit code equal 0" exit 0 else ... when run from the command line, the echo text displays. But, when run from crontab every 10 minutes, the if fails, and the else clause runs. I've tried every syntax I know, but still can't get this logic to work. Upstream in the same script, there is another "if" with same syntax that also checks a related daemon, and that IF works as expected, both interactively and from crontab. suggestions?

It works for me, and I suspect that it's working for you, too. well, it's really not. The crontab execution is trying to run the daemon even when the daemon shows up in "ps aux". However, you may not see the results expected if you are piping the cron output through sendmail I'm not, and anyway the echo is after the IF condition "fails". Also, make sure that you're running the expected shell. Check the SHELL= line in crontab, or force the script to run via the expected shell by running 'sh script' instead of just 'script', or tell the script what shell to run by adding something like the following on the first line: #!/bin/sh already there, and /etc/crontab also contains SHELL=/bin/sh Although this isn't related to your problem , you might find it simpler to use the -q option on grep instead of redirecting the output. For example, if ( ps -aux | grep -q -i "^root.*master" ); then instead of, ok. thanks Len To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message

Re: .sh interactive ok, from crontab, not
Okay, I was able to duplicate your problem. It is due to the output of 'ps' being truncated to 80 columns, the default terminal size. You are likely running a wide terminal display on your interactive session (as I do) yep, TeraTerm on Windows, very wide display. but cron will see the default 80 column terminal. This is the difference between the two. ugh, amazing! Try running 'ps' using the -w flag (wide column mode): if ( ps -auxw | grep -iq "^root.*master" ) ; then I've tested this and it works. here, too, thanks!!

Re: booting from Promise tx2000
If your BIOS supports this, try setting the boot device in CMOS configuration to SCSI Boot Device. it does, and that's how we have it. The problem is that the offboard ATA controller you are using has its own BIOS, thus the system BIOS will not boot a disk attatched to it. I don't think so, the system BIOS scans the i/o address space for executable segements and passes control to any that it finds, giving the disk controller card a chance to run its own code, hook interrupts, etc. Setting SCSI boot device will mostly make your BIOS offer to hand booting over to what ever device offers to take it. Most (modern) ATA controllers respond to the call for a "SCSI boot device" and take controle, then booting the system from the hard drives they own. agreed, but it's not happening. We've played a lot with the System bios settings and with the tx2000 bios setup utility, which sees the drives correctly.

booting from Promise tx2000: FIXED
Since we only had one ATA133 disk on each TX2000 ATA channel, we skipped the TX2000 setup utility to define an "array" (we didn't want to run RAID or want any stinking arrays at all). We were able to boot from mobo ATA CDROM and install fbsd through the TX2000. ( btw, we always install fbsd boot mgr, since without the boot mgr, we more often than not, cannot get any boot at all ) But, no boot from TX2000 fbsd disk. Nothing, no errors, from TX200, nothing from fbsd bootblock. When we did define an array as "span", but only had one disk per ATA channel in the "span", we were finally able to get a boot but with a failure : Mounting Root from ufs:/dev/ad4s1a Root Mount Failed: 16 We figured the fbsd install pre-array/span wasn't accessible after we did defined array/span. So with the array mode + span now on, we re-installed fbsd via the TX2000 to the same disk. And now, we can boot just fine. while waiting for Soeren Schmidt to get the Promise SX4000 driver done! :)) Len To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message

The ata driver is quite strict on standards implementation. It could be that the promise cables may not comply as strictly with the standard as it would prefer. Try getting 80-conductor cables from a third party. Generally speaking, buying your own cables is better than using the ones that came with the controller anyway, as those are usually el-cheapos, even with the most expensive controllers. One unreported point we later verified was in the TX2000 on-board setup util, "Show Drive Status" shows both drives as mode "U6" (is ATA133).

There are two things you might want to look at. First it trying to set the modes manually after boot. This is not recommended, and I would not do it unless on a read only file system, if setting the higher mode fails, or fails partially, you might be in for a world of trouble. To do this, you can try: atacontrol mode ata4 udma6 --- atacontrol mode ata6 udma6 --- mx# atacontrol mode ata2 udma6 --- Master = UDMA33 Slave = ??? mx# atacontrol mode ata3 udma6 --- Master = UDMA33 Slave = ??? Also, you might want to look at the length of the cables. According to the Ultra-ATA (UDMA) standards, an 80-conductor cable must be no longer than 30cm, or about 12". Cables of longer length begin to build up too much noise, even for the double-conductor design to combat. While Promise's BIOS and their own drivers (as seen on Windows) might tolerate these noise levels, I'm very sure ata(4) will not. I've already thought of that and the guy on site says the Promise cables are 18 inches.
