Loading PF after pppoe
I now use the in-kernel pppoe and pf, but on boot pf loads itself before the networking is up. How does one cause the networking to be up before the pf rules? Amit.
Loading PF after ppp
I connect to the internet using pppoe(8) by putting the following line in /etc/rc.local.conf: ppp -ddial pppoe However, the pf rules load before I have an internet connection and therefore pfctl reports an error. How does one load PF after ppp? Amit.
Re: Does OpenBSD support Hebrew?
Marc, Hebrew works fine on openoffice with all the major linux distributions. If you could suggest how to tackle this, I'd be happy to have a look. Amit On 9/24/07, Marc Espie [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: We do not have full i18n support. The locale stuff in the base system is not finished (I know, I'm late...) Qt has its own locale system, so hebrew should work just fine in all Qt and KDE applications (including right-to-left text). Gnome and gtk also have some support. Vim supports more or less every script including hebrew. I don't know if there's any issue with input, I'm not familiar with hebrew, and I've only been working with japanese input. There might be some tweak to help OpenOffice. Does OpenOffice support hebrew on some platforms ? If it does, it might make sense to try to figure out the configuration differences.

That is true, but I would expect that at least the locales would be installed by default in /usr/share/locale so that a user from a right-to-left speaking country would be able to use it. I volunteer to make it so if I only knew how.
Does OpenBSD support Hebrew?
Dear subscribers/moderators, Does OpenBSD fully support Hebrew? If indeed it does, how does one make applications in X/KDE properly see/present Hebrew letters and filenames? I have already added the following two lines to my .profile: export LC_CTYPE=he_IL.UTF-8 export LC_COLLATE=he_IL.UTF-8 and this made it possible to show Hebrew filenames under normal KDE applications properly. However, when I tried opening an OpenOffice files, for example, which had Hebrew letters in it, it all appeared meshed and garbled or just blanks instead of letters. Amit.

On 9/22/07, Jussi Peltola [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Filenames in foreign languages can sometimes be a little problematic, because Unix doesn't really have any standard on how to store them on disk - filenames are just byte arrays. Because a machine may have users with different locales this can make sharing files very difficult, so the desktop environments seem to be storing filenames in UTF-8 with no regard to the locale. GTK apps also look at the environment variable G_FILENAME_ENCODING, which you may want to define, but if memory serves me correctly it defaults to UTF-8 so with an UTF-8 locale you don't need to care. Are you sure .profile is sourced in your X session? Try checking the environment variables are set in an xterm. I don't know what you mean by sourced, but when I type set xterm I see them. The command locale will also print out the locale settings, but I can't remember if OpenBSD has one (I'm stuck on a painful mobile device so I can't check). I don't think it has one either. In any case I noticed that indeed the two sets weren't really accepted by the system: perl: warning: Setting locale failed. perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings: LC_ALL = (unset), LC_CTYPE = he_IL.UTF-8, LC_COLLATE = he_IL.UTF-8, LANG = (unset) are supported and installed on your system. perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale (C). Can't resolve locale Do the filenames look ok if you ls them in an xterm? OK, I checked that and they don't. They appear like gibberish and question marks surrounded by circles. I guess this conforms to the above perl warning. Maybe there just isn't a he_IL.UTF-8 locale for OpenBSD.

Re: Unable to connect to the the ISP
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Again some progress. I know this is a newbie blunder, but I entered my username and password as 'username' and 'password' instead of username and password. I still think it's worth mentioning in this mailing list for possible future mistakes of newbies such as myself. As a result of this important change in /etc/hostname.pppoe0, I managed to get a valid IP address from my provider. However, I still cannot access the inet via any service, be it ping, telnet, ftp or http. In the ifconfig the one-before-last line of pppoe0 shows inet AAA.AAA.AAA.AAA -- 0.0.0.1 netmask 0xff00 where AAA.AAA.AAA.AAA is my valid IP address. Do I need to enter a different gateway or is 0.0.0.1 good enough? Thanks, Amit. iD8DBQFG3ExpEzurR/yozRMRAn0uAKCsmNcDmeRSyH/0SXr15qIbJDQTgQCfW5dU sMLMPmkxsaLSQvMfrLGV/Ys= =LltP -END PGP SIGNATURE-
Re: Unable to connect to the the ISP
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 With the help of Jonathon, I think I've made some progress. I changed /etc/hostname.pppoe0 to be the following: pppoedev fxp0 authproto pap authname 'MYAUTHNAME' authkey 'MYPASSWORD' !/sbin/ifconfig fxp0 up !/sbin/ifconfig \$if inet 0.0.0.0 http://0.0.0.0 0.0.0.1 http://0.0.0.1 netmask 0x mtu 1452 !/sbin/route add default 0.0.0.1 http://0.0.0.1 up and restarted the network. The output of ifconfig and dmesg are attached in separate files. As you can see, I still don't get a proper inet address, i.e. I'm still not connected. No error messages this time. I have a conjecture. Is it possible that my ISP does not require authentication and that the only thing that prevents me from connecting is the 'authproto pap' entry in /etc/hostname.pppoe0?

Unable to connect to the the ISP
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I recently installed OpenBSD 4.1 on my computer and tried to connect to my xDSL ISP via pppoe.

You don't need to, I'm sure that's not the problem. Btw, I suggest you to try the kernel mode pppoe. It's really simple to set up and works like a charm. See pppoe(4). OK, so I configured /etc/hostname.pppoe0 as described in pppoe(4): # The following line is all in one line inet 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 NONE pppoedev fxp0 authproto pap authname 'myUsername' authkey 'myPassword' up dest 0.0.0.1 !/sbin/route add default 0.0.0.1 and the corresponding ifconfig output is: lo0: flags=8049UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST mtu 33224 groups: lo inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff00 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5 rl0: flags=8802BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 lladdr 00:0a:cd:10:2b:c5 media: Ethernet autoselect status: active fxp0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 lladdr 00:0d:61:03:77:63 groups: egress media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex) status: active inet6 fe80::20d:61ff:fe03:7763%fxp0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 inet 10.0.0.2 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 10.255.255.255 pflog0: flags=0 mtu 33224 enc0: flags=0 mtu 1536 pppoe0: flags=8810POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1492 dev: fxp0 state: initial sid: 0x0 PADI retries: 0 PADR retries: 0 groups: pppoe inet6 fe80::20a:cdff:fe10:2bc5%pppoe0 - prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x6 inet 0.0.0.0 -- 0.0.0.0 netmask 0x So I got rid of the nagging IPv6 message (nevermind what that was) but I still can't manage to connect.
