Changing password in kerberized environment is not working.
Hi folks, i have configured my openbsd kerberos server. It is serving two other computer in my home network. One of this client is running openbsd the other is Windows XP. I am able to login into any of these 2 client and authentication goes through kerberos 100% successful. I can log in to the server 100% ok. After logged in any given machine, i can reach another through obtaining a service ticket, what gives me a SSO enviroment. The problem is that i cannot change password from any of those machine, i got the following: [EMAIL PROTECTED] passwd -K [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s Password: New password: Verifying password - New password: Reply from server: Authentication failed [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] passwd -K [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s Password: New password: Verifying password - New password: Reply from server: Authentication failed [EMAIL PROTECTED] And on windows i get a screen witht he following: 1326: Logon failure: unknow user or bad password. What i cannot understand is why i can login on any of the machine, but cannot change password. What am i doing wrong? OpenBSD machine is 4.3 stable and the other, Windows XP. Kerberos(heimdal) is the standard that comes with OpenBSD 4.3

OT: fully interconnect switches: interesting problem
Dear gentleman/madam, i was given 4 2724 dell powerconnect switches and only 6 patch cords. Besides that, i was given a challenge to connect them each other having a full interconnection schema (thanks my classes on graph theory, i could do it using only 6 patch cords). So, given any two switches there is a direct path between them. Instead of cascading, this approach avoid a single point of failure and allows, for instance, a uplink of 3 Gb/s between any given two switches and reduces patch cords usage (my graph edges in this scenario). The problem raises when i turn them on: After some time (from seconds to 1 or even 2 minutes) the switches go crazy. I cannot even ping the ip assigned to the switch i am connected directly not to mention a desktop located on another switch. Is there any configuration that could be done to allow such interconnection shema ? thanks in advance. PS: please, forgive me my OT message, but i am really desperated. Could some one point me a better list to place my message?
Re: What is our ultimate goal??
Hey folks, i have been writing software about 6 year since i finnished my university course. OpenBSD has always been impressive to my eyes. Since correctness/security is conditio sine qua non, i disagree as a group of developer has it as goal. Goal should be performance, portability usability. But correctness/security should be a requirement. I am very confident about software i wrote. But in order to obtain paramount performance i am taking a totally different approach. Since process and even thread are not a good ideia. i am working now to learn a little bit more about SDL (specification and description language). Not only my systems became faster, a lot faster but also, very, very, very modular. I am not in kernel design/implementation, so i would like to hear from you all about an approach driven by this method. I was thinking about the advantages of having very modular part of a OS, being executed on each processor (of a SMP system), and like. It sounds very interesting to me. thanks.

Also that multi-threaded ssh/scp would weaken security features within the OS. It just led me to ponder, what is OpenBSD's ultimate goal? Is it just to become the worlds most secure OS with as few remote holes in the default install? Shouldn't it also be our goal to be the best UNIX-like operating system which is in tune with the current needs of users? It would have been great to have a threaded kernel, there are developer's I'm gathering around who wanted to change the TCP/IP stack to make it higher performance, more like Project FireEngine under Solaris 10. OpenBSD is an OS with amazing security and stability, but it has too few modern features. It would be great if developers also start working on improving the features currently offered by OpenBSD. Else, we would end up becoming the world's most secure OS which is used by just a handful of us faithful users. You might ask what right do I have for this rant, what am I doing for OpenBSD? Well I can't donate code directly as I'm a Java programmer and my C is quite rusty (haven't coded in it in over 7 years). But, yes, I do donate my time and money, indirectly, by recruiting good C developers to the cause as well as buying stuff for core developers off their wish lists. Hope newer features get added, not that I'm unhappy with the OS (it does almost everything I need an OS to do for me), but it would be great if we had *more* smart developers and a wider base of good users who get attracted to the OS for its robustness as well as feature-set.

multiple amd files served by nis
Hello, i am planning a network whose desktop will be contacting a set o NFS server. The NFS exported directories will be mounted using amd. Looking at NIS i realized it supports only a single amd description file. I would like to suggest a variable be added to NIS make file in order to allow a sysadmin to handle more than a single file, in current scenario: amd.home. What you think of this suggestion? Thanks in advance.
OFF-TOPIC: xdm/gdm linux + openbsd 4.2 Kerberos KDC (i am losing my hairs)
Dear folks, i am losing my hear. I am in need to get a gentoo linux desktop (note: running garbage stuff like linux is not my choice but a user requirement) to authenticate through kerberos. For now i could do it only on console tty and sshd server. But when i try to auth in the local xdm/gdm they fails to do so. Does anybody have any idea on how to handle such? The only thing necessary to have console tty and sshd working was: [EMAIL PROTECTED] /etc/pam.d $ cat system-auth #%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_env.so auth sufficient pam_unix.so try_first_pass likeauth nullok auth sufficient pam_krb5.so use_first_pass debug auth required pam_deny.so accountrequired pam_unix.so password required pam_cracklib.so difok=2 minlen=8 dcredit=2 ocredit=2 try_first_pass retry=3 password sufficient pam_unix.so try_first_pass use_authtok nullok md5 shadow password required pam_deny.so sessionrequired pam_limits.so sessionrequired pam_unix.so How to get xdm/gdm ?

vlan configuration: off-topic
Dear gentleman, i am starting with vlan topic right now. I am in need to get two dell powerconnect 2724 switches to implement 3 vlan. I know how to configure the ports for desktops, but i am having a hard time configuring the port(s) that should interconnect the switches itself. Since the traffic in the ports (one in each switch) can handle traffic for every 3 vlan (once there are desktops of the 3 vlan on each switch), how should i configure those uplink ports? Thanks a lot for your time and cooperation. Best regards. PS: Does anybody suggest a more specific mailing list on this regards.
Pretty hard times with openbsd yp server
Dear gentleman, i am trying to get nis server working with my 4.1 openbsd server, but until up to now. I am having problems related to two things: First, suppose i update a given user entry in the input file for the server build procedure. After issuing a make inside /var/yp/`domainname` everything is built ok, but ypserv continues to serve old data. Important to realize that makedbm -u show the new data as expected. Second, i have a netgroup file under my nis server, but after adding some entry for netgroup wihtin passwd (using vipw), only the first user of the member list for a given netgroup name is used. When i try to finger a user listed into the second list member and so on, it is show as username not found, or something like that. But, when i use ypatch sysop netgroup every list member is returned. Any ideia? Thanks in advance.
nis is not updating
Dear gentleman, i am facing a strange nis behavior after i update my domain database. After i change the input data for the domain by means of issueing make ypserv stills serves the older data set. Some debuging stuff: lion# ypcat netgroup (,dnscache,),(,dnslog,),(,tinydns,) (,alias,),(,qmaild,),(,qmaill,),(,qmailp,),(,qmailq,),(,qmailr,),(,qmails,) (,sioux,) lion# makedbm -u netgroup YP_LAST_MODIFIED 1189006343 YP_MASTER_NAME lion.my.domain djbdns (,dnscache,),(,dnslog,),(,tinydns,) qmail (,alias,),(,qmaild,),(,qmaill,),(,qmailp,),(,qmailq,),(,qmailr,),(,qmails,) sysop (,sioux,),(,grios,) lion# I am having a hard with all that.

Centralized ports collection server
Dear gentleman, i would like to set a single box in my network to keep syncronized to the ports collection infra structure. My ideia is to export the directory /usr/ports to all my local connected machines. So, there would be no need to sync them all. I would like to be able to build the utilities/lib/etc once and be able to install them every machine with the same hardware/OS version. Is that possible? How show be my /etc/exports control configuration file? Thanks in advance. PS: Is this an elegant way to achieve low stress environment?
YP server: i am desperated.
Dear gentleman, i have setted my NIS server using openbsd 4.1. In order to get things easier to manage, i decide the have a directory a part for my input file for nis database building process. So, i change the /var/yp/`domainname`/Makefile variables the point to the amd directory and etc directory from /etc/amd and /etc to /asd/etc/amd and /asd/etc. I have written and common input file for nis on those new directories, like hosts, netgroup, etc More specially, the master.passwd and group files. I have populated the last two too. When i issue make inside /var/yp/`domainname`. The databases are built ok, no problem. But things get strange, when i try to login into a client nis on my network. Although i have setted a password for a nis user in /asd/etc/master.passwd. That password is not allowed neither on the client not the server box. But if after typing the login, i hit return and return i am able to login without a password; what is the equivalent of a password of . Does anybody have any ideia where i am mistaken?

Thanks, STeve Andre' Stephan Chris is spot on with the handle the packet per second load that you expect to have comment. 10G driver support is relatively nascent on OpenBSD.

ftp and pf (nat)

Thanks in advance.
Re: ftp and pf (nat)
According to pf FAQ: With passive mode FTP (the default mode with OpenBSD's ftp(1) client), the client requests that the server pick a random port to listen on for the data connection. The server informs the client of the port it has chosen, and the client connects to this port to transfer the data. Unfortunately, this is not always possible or desirable because of the possibility of a firewall in front of the FTP server blocking the incoming data connection. OpenBSD's ftp(1) uses passive mode by default; to force active mode FTP, use the -A flag to ftp, or set passive mode to off by issuing the command passive off at the ftp prompt. ok! I am really having a bad time with this issue! Not to get it working but to understand it. If ftp-proxy does not insert rules how does the outgoing traffic is permitted across the firewall for a dynamic port choosen by the server? Thanks once more.

Re: ftp and pf (nat)
Yes, i was receiving file. But a look as ftp-proxy (8) : In case of active mode (PORT or EPRT): rdr from $server to $proxy port $port - $client pass quick inet proto tcp \ from $server to $client port $port In case of passive mode (PASV or EPSV): nat from $client to $server port $port - $proxy pass in quick inet proto tcp \ from $client to $server port $port pass out quick inet proto tcp \ from $proxy to $server port $port So i understand ftp-proxy injects rules for both connection type.

OT: unix/openbsd printer support
Dear gentleman/madam, some time ago, i reached an internet site on printing information for unix deployment. There there was information for hundreds of printer from lots of manufacturers. Including information on how-well was a given printer supported. Now i have lost such reference (i mean the site url) and to the best of my recollections i can't recollect. I wonder if some here has already deployed such in openbsd environment and knows the site i am talking about. Thanks a lot for your time and cooperation. best regards.
rdate issue
Dear gentleman/madam, i have a home network composed of 1 gateway and two boxes. All of them running openbsd 4.1 of course. I decided to get the time syncronization for all those boxes. In the gateway machine, i managed to get the following in crontab: */5 * * * * /usr/sbin/rdate -4ncva ptbtime1.ptb.de | /usr/bin/logger -t NTP In the other two boxes (lion and etosha) i have: */5 * * * * /usr/sbin/rdate -4cva gw | /usr/bin/logger -t NTP Everything is working ok except because of those two boxes always have a time about 20/22 seconds after my gateway time, like in the output for date command: [EMAIL PROTECTED] date Sun May 13 23:04:35 BRT 2007 [EMAIL PROTECTED] date Sun May 13 23:04:59 BRT 2007 [EMAIL PROTECTED] date Sun May 13 23:04:59 BRT 2007 Does anybody have any ideia about why it is happening ?

Unfamiliar (to me only) ports behavior
Dear gentleman/madam, i have just installed openbsd 4.1. I am very happy with it, but something i was not expecting is happening: As an ordinary user (belonging to the group wheel) i switched to the ports collection directory (/usr/ports/x11/openmotif) and issued i make fetch. I got surprised when the tarball started to be dowloaded in /usr/ports/distfiles although its sticky bit is not on. May someone here explain me how it is possible? Thanks in advance.

Re: Unfamiliar (to me only) ports behavior
Dear users, just one more question: which umask directive should my cvsup files (for src and ports collection) should have? Now, i am using umask=0002. Thanks once more.
