No.

In ports yes, in base no.

I don't see any advantage switching from sendmail to qmail.

...and yes, i know qmail. It was the first mailserver i get in touch 
with and used it for several years. But after qmail and (later) postfix, 
i'm nowadays using sendmail as prefered server.

 Salut,
 
 I have a problem with direct connection of two servers using IPsec. The
 IKE key exchange always comes up, but then it seems that both the routing
 and the encryption go entirely wrong.
 
 The host exchange their internal addresses (10.16.1.1 and 10.1.1.1) as
 ID tokens for phase 2. However, if I try to ping 10.16.1.1 from
 10.1.1.1, the packets go out the external interface - unencrypted.

You realy do a ping -I 10.1.1.1 10.16.1.1 or only a ping 10.16.1.1?

You must have the 10.1.1.1 as source ip. A normal ping on the gateway
ueses the external ip as source!


 If, however, I replace the ID tokens with the corresponding IP subnets
 (10.16.0.0/16 and 10.1.0.0/16), I get an even more weird effect:
 
 * 10.16.0.0/16 can communicate with 10.1.0.0/16 just fine
 * 10.1.0.0/16 can communicate with 10.16.0.0/16 just as well
 * 10.16.1.1 can not reach 10.1.0.0/16, however, people in 10.1.0.0/16 can
   connect to 10.16.1.1 just fine
 * 10.1.1.1 can not reach 10.16.0.0/16, however, people in 10.16.0.0/16
   can connect to 10.1.1.1 just fine

Sound like the same problem :)

 Yes, this one works so far. However, how would one configure this
 statically? Is there any way other than route add -host 10.1.1.1 10.16.1.1 ?

I know no way of configure this as a default.
And I dont think the route will do what you want.

But most tools have a option to set the address to bind.
(i.e. ssh -b address; ping -I address)

Most applications like named, sendmail, apache have also a configuration
option to select the bind address.

Maybe another way is setting up a second tunnel to encrypt the traffic
between the two outside interfaces of your gatways.

If you are using 4.0 then it is worth reading the manpage of
ipsec.onf(5). It has greatly improved since 3.9 and there is almost no
need to use isakmpd.conf/isakmpd.policy.

In your case, maybe a:


ike esp from ourside-gw1 to outside-gw2
ike esp from 10.16.0.0/16 to 10.1.0.0/16 peer outside-gw2


in the first gatways ipsec.conf and a corresponding configuration on the
second gatway will do the work.

 Hi all,
 
 Based on http://www.openbsd.org.my/sparc64.html, seem that OpenBSD can
 install on Sun Blade 100/150 machine.  I have this problem when do
 disk installation on Blade 100.  Below is the error.
 
 ok boot disk /bsd
 Boot device: /[EMAIL PROTECTED],0/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0  File 
 and args: /bsd
ERROR: Last Trap: Fast Data Access MMU Miss

Looks like there is nothing usefull on your disk...

What do you mean with disk installation?

Booting for an installation FROM a disk?
Then copy miniroot40.fs with dd(1) to the disk.
(http://www.openbsd.org/sparc64.html#install)

Or better(usually a Blade 100 has a cdrom drive) boot from cdrom.
To get a boot-cd, you can buy a CD-Set (preferred) or take cd40.iso from
 a ftp-server.

It's the same procedure on 4.0 as it was on 3.9 and it will still
be in 4.1.

You ask the the same question on 11/29/06 in Applying patch? regarding
the sendmail patch for 3.9.

Extract the sources to /usr/src, patch the source and rebuild.

Do yourself a favor and read the FAQ!
