Re: Authenticate squid in Active Directory
Hummm, I wish I had seen this patch earlier. Anyway, when I need winbind, I just edit squid's Makefile and add winbind configure args... As Eduardo said, why not have a winbind flavor for the squid package? -- An OpenBSD user... and that's all you need to know =)
GDM-2.18.2 XFCE4.4.1 issue at OpenBSD 4.2-stable-i386
Hello people @ misc, I've successfully built both the -stable base system and the X system (xenocara) and I'm trying to setup GDM properly to combine with XFCE4. Right now, XFCE4 works after issuing startx command (I've configure .xinitrc properly apparently). I've done some research in the net and everywhere I could but I don't seem to get it working through GDM login. Can anybody shed some light in setting up .xinitrc/.xsession or whatever files I need to get it running properly? thanks in advance, jon.

brigde(4) RSTP problem or vendor bad implementation?
Hi all, I need to build a redundant FW layer; because of the present network structure, the FW should be bridges. No option in this point .. :'( My idea is to get redundancy using RSTP (Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol) in the switches; so, the picture will be: SWITCH 1 / \ /\ / \ FW1--pfsync--FW2 \ / \/ \ / SWITCH2 | | MY NETWORK * Switch[1|2] and FW[1|2] has the RSTP active. * FW1 and FW2 using a dedicated Xover link (pfsync) I mount a box attached to switch1 and another one attached to switch2 to make my tests. And I get: * if I don't use the FW-bridge (only a wire) the switches use perfectly the RSTP. * if I use the FW-bridge, the RSTP only works for a while (4/8 minutes). Passing this time, RSTP dead and you get a wonderful and terrific loop. I've sniffed the traffic in both bridges NICs with tcpdump(1) and it's clear: while the RSTP is working all it's fine. But, suddenly, RSTP packets doesn't appear any more and the evil loop comes. ?? The traffic generated for these tests has been a simple ping and iperf between boxes attached to switch1 and switch2 respectively. I don't know any reasons for that ugly behaviour. The fact is that the switches works fine between them (they never suffers loops), but if you put the OpenBSD bridges you get the described fail. I only see three the options at these point: * the bridge(4) RSTP implementation has a bug. I don't believe in this option. * the switches RSTP implementation is bad. The switches are D-Link 3024. * the bridge(4) configuration is bad. -- Thanks, Jordi Espasa Clofent

It is a sad but undeniable fact that Windows networks are ubiquitous, and having tools to interface with them would increase usability and provide a real alternative to proprietary closed source options. Given the choice, I'd prefer not to use AD. Given the choice I'd elect not to use windows at all. Sometimes that's just not an option, and I'm not rich enough to turn down the work. I won't argue either way for the inclusion of the patch, as I have no real information about it, but to simply reject the idea of AD authentication may be tempting, but it really does smack of denial. Does AD suck major ass? Absolutely. Is it in extremely wide use by companies who wouldn't even consider moving away from it? Absolutely. Would it be useful to have squid authenticate to AD? Absolutely. Should this be included. ? Maybe, maybe not. There are other tools available, some work better than others. I rather like the flexibility of Squid, and I am prepared to state that if this were included, I'd use it. On the other hand, I have Squid running on OpenBSD as a proxy at one location now, and simply provide separate proxies based on AD OU's using group policy. It's not elegant, but it works. -Jonathan
Turning NTFS on in GENERIC kernels
For some time now, I've been using the NTFS code in GENERIC. Lately I've been subjected to an ever increasing number of Windows Sheep who have infected themselves. My proceedure these days is to take the disk out of the machine and stuff it into mine, mount it and extract data before scrubbing the mindless thing and starting over... From my experience NTFS read-only access to disks has been flawless. I think the largest amount of data I've extracted has been about 70G. Given that XP systems essentially demand NTFS, having the ability to read it is crucial when dealing with the hapless. I'd like to suggest that NTFS be enabled by default in GENERIC; I realize that it can't be in the boot media because of size, but for general work not having to compile a non-standard kernel would be a win for a lot of people. Making it read-only as the default would be the way to do it. If anyone has had a disaster reading NTFS data I'd like to hear it. --STeve Andre'

My circumvention will be to pump it through the network, instead.

They use LDAP+kerberos plus a bit of DNS to allow the kerberos to locate the kerberos infrastructure automatically - something that the non-windows world sadly lacks. The database is automatically replicated with tombstoning of records - again something the non-windows world lacks. MS may have bastardised some parts of kerberos and DNS to get AD working but it mostly works pretty much automatically and can scale up without requiring too much extra admin, something I have yet to see happen in the opensource world. I don't like AD but, big picture wise, it does have some attributes that would be good to adopt (attributes, not implimentation). Bagging it without offering a solid alternative is just pointless rhetoric.

Can that Linux binary create and read files larger than 2GB on a *Linux* system? If it doesn't use 64bit capable syscalls, then there's nothing the BSD compat layer can do about it. As a counter-example, a quick check shows that a 'cat' binary from RHEL AS 4 has no problems with a file over 4GB in size, but strace/ktrace show that it uses the Linux fstat64() call, etc. (Hmm, do the compat_linux versions of the 32bit-only syscalls return EOVERFLOW like the Linux ones would on files 2GB?

multi-disk external scsi enclosures
I'm wondering how scsi external arrays work in OpenBSD. This is in relation to my low-MHz box search. Sata drives have too fast a clock rate so it will be scsi. I did an eBay search and found Sun and HP arrays, then went and got the doc pdfs. They all talk about running software on Solaris or HP-UX/Windws, respectivly, to configure and monitor the arrays. How does this work in OpenBSD? Thanks, Doug.

Re: Turning NTFS on in GENERIC kernels
On 06/02/2008, STeve Andre' [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: For some time now, I've been using the NTFS code in GENERIC. Lately I've been subjected to an ever increasing number of Windows Sheep who have infected themselves. My proceedure these days is to take the disk out of the machine and stuff it into mine, mount it and extract data before scrubbing the mindless thing and starting over... From my experience NTFS read-only access to disks has been flawless. I think the largest amount of data I've extracted has been about 70G. Given that XP systems essentially demand NTFS, having the ability to read it is crucial when dealing with the hapless. I'd like to suggest that NTFS be enabled by default in GENERIC; I realize that it can't be in the boot media because of size, but for general work not having to compile a non-standard kernel would be a win for a lot of people. Making it read-only as the default would be the way to do it. If anyone has had a disaster reading NTFS data I'd like to hear it. Apologies for my clueless question, just curious here: Does anyone know where that NTFS support code for OpenBSD hails from? I'm just asking because I know that on the Linux side there's NTFS-3G ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS-3G ), which is stable and allows safe NTFS reading and writing. OTOH, NTFS-3G is base on FUSE, wich AFAIK doesn't exist for OpenBSD. NetBSD has PUFFS which according to Wikipedia ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace ) is their FUSE-equivalent and they apparently support NTFS-3G with that. A mature NTFS read/write ability does seem like a useful thing to me, so I wonder where the OpenBSD NTFS code stems from ((and whether there might be anyybody (qualified) interested in making the NTFS-3G code work under OpenBSD)). Thanks and kind regards, --ropers
Re: Turning NTFS on in GENERIC kernels
Funny thing, I haven't really *ever* used NTFS (on any OS) but couple of days ago I wanted to transfer file to NTFS partition and couldn't because the kernel lacked the driver. So instead of recompiling kernel I copied it over to USB stick also because the file was very small.

Re: Authenticate squid in Active Directory
Obviously you've had no contact with AD or the cruftware it is infesting. More than enough to call you out on the ignorant, unsubstantiated crap you're posting. Please show me the proof that my customers are experiencing a net loss of productivity because their squid boxes authenticate to AD. Or, for that matter, the transcript of a meeting where you have convinced the management at a company with 8000 windows clients and a couple of hundred windows servers that they should just drop Microsoft because you think *AD* isn't up to scratch... Obviously you've had no contact with an environment larger than your home network. Windows networks are the majority in the corporate world as far as end-user infrastructure goes, and they're not going anywhere anytime soon. I, for one, have accepted the reality, and adapted. So what standards-based authentication service would you propose besides LDAP+Kerberos? Hesiod? Shibboleth? Well, it sounds like the OP or his cusomer has a Windows network, so how about uh... AD??? -Andre
