filtering syslog by remote host?
Hi there - wondered if BSD's native syslog could filter events based on the orginating host? man syslog.conf seems to indicate it can, but I can't get it working. (Most online resources refer to syslog-ng, but I'm hoping to do it with the base system if possible) Does anyone have a working config they could post? Thanks a lot. -- I predict that today will be remembered until tomorrow!

setting pci pnp SMC2602W
I am running 4.3-STABLE, version of 2 july. I have a SMC2602W card (PCI to PCMCIA bridge to SMC2632W) wireless LAN adapter. The kernel recognizes the adapter, bit fails to allocate an interrupt No irq?! message because the IRQ is already occupied. The if_wi driver doesn't allow RF_SHAREABLE irqs. How can I force an interrupt to the value I want? Peter To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-stable in the body of the message

Hard lockups since cvsup'ing Jul 1st. Help!
The kernel/world I built on Sunday night seem to lock my system up hard after 3-5 minutes. My system Dual PIII 650's AMI MegaRAID 1400 256mb ram 2 linksys 10/100 (version 4.0's) I was tracking RELENG_4 ... the last known good kernel I had was from about the 10th of June. Can anyone tell me if anything went in from then till now that might effect my raid controller, ethernet cards, linux emulation, my u160 disks, etc? I don't know why my system is locking up so completely - I've never had FreeBSD do this to me. :-) If there's any more information I can provide, please let me know.

Right now I'm cvsup'ing back to June 1st (to be I don't have any information except to say me too! I was CVSup'ing and trying to sync all my machines to the latest -STABLE on Friday night. As I usually do, I installed just the kernel and rebooted to see if things were ok. Well, they weren't. Hard lock, no keyboard activity could not telnet in, could not ping, couldn't do anything. Word to the wise--as long as you have physical access to the machine, ALWAYS test the new kernel before proceeding with installworld! There are these odd times when something will be wrong and it's MUCH easier to stop an upgrade cycle after installkernel versus backing out everything after installworld! I reverted back to kernel.old and the machine was solid again, so I kindly just backed out of that upgrade cycle restoring the kernel and /modules. I figured it was just a fluke or some wierd thing so I haven't reported it until now, but there certainly is something that has gone deathly south here. My machine is an Abit BP6 dual Celeron board with BX chipset and two fxp NICs. Been rock solid for years and still rock solid with kernel.old from the beginning part of June (sorry no exact date). After I make sure that my old kernel still worked, I tried booting into the new kernel to run some tops and vmstat -i and stuff, but the machine locked up too soon for me to type anything (just after logging into the console, BOOM). I've since CVS'uped from Sunday and just manually copied a new kernel to / but didn't have time to test it out. Does anybody have any clues as to how we go about tracking this down (aside from the binary search through all the commits from the last known good kernel)? I'm going to try to CVSup again and also build a uni-processor kernel. -Jr -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= | John Reynolds WCCG, CCE, (space for rent, cheap!) | | Intel Corporation MS: CH6-210 Phone: 480-554-9092 pgr: 602-868-6512 | | [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www-aec.ch.intel.com/~jreynold/ | =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= --- end of forwarded message --- -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= | John Reynolds WCCG, CCE, (space for rent, cheap!) | | Intel Corporation MS: CH6-210 Phone: 480-554-9092 pgr: 602-868-6512 | | [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www-aec.ch.intel.com/~jreynold/ | =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-stable in the body of the message

RE: BIND-9.x
Even though about 1/3 of my FreeBSD installs need to run DNS servers, I'd be happy to see it removed from the base system. My understanding was that the version kept in the base system is what the committers and dev team consider the most stable, secure and compatible release. This, of course, would not necessarily meant the latest (see OpenSS*). - Steven -Original Message- From: chad [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 02, 2001 12:48 PM To: karsten Cc: chad; dl; stable Subject: Re: BIND-9.x On Mon, Jul 02, 2001 at 05:50:09PM +0200, Karsten W.

I hadn't though about that, but I believe I'd support it. Most (I'm guessing here) FreeBSD systems don't run a DNS server. Those that need to could install a port. BIND seems to be in the same catagory as sendmail, contributed software that many people prefer to replace with something more simple. -crl -- Chad R.
