Does FreeBSD support Software RAID ?
if so, what can it do ?
RAID 0, 1, 5 ??

also would it be able to mirror the root parition ?

Thanks.

any advice would be cool.

So there is no way to mirror the root so if one drive fails,
i can't have the other drive boot up ?

DAMN

 There's always good stuff in there about everything, as far as raid, 0,
 1, 5, I imagine 0+1, 10, prolly the only thing it lacks is JBOD.
 
 But as far as your 'root' partition that I don't think so, mirroring the
 root partition usually isn't worth it anywho.  Since the root partition
 is typically 250megs for /
 
 and yeah you can mirror /usr /var, etc with vinum (mdconfig) or you
 could use ccd if you wish.

OpenLDAP/nss_ldap/pam_ldap

2003-10-28 Thread Steve Lee
Question ?

I am using FreeBSD 5.1   

I have a linux server with openldap running on it 
authenticating Solaris and Linux box and now FreeBSD 5.1

I have gotten FreeBSD 5.1 to authenticate user remotely 
ssh ing to the box.  They can log in, but when they log 
in, the system shows their userid instead of the username
when you do a ps.   this tells me something might be
wrong with nss_ldap.  but not sure what i am doing wrong.

I can do id username  which it returns the user information.

does anyone have an idea what i didn't do during my setup of
OpenLDAP/nss_ldap/pam_ldap  ?  Thanks.

Steve

Sorry for my ignorance, i am new to FreeBSD.  i have tried to use it
in the past ( 2years ago ) but decided to wait to till the nss_ldap
support was added for nsswitch so i can use openldap.  Now, when you
say rebuild, how would i rebuild FreeBSD dynamically, or are you saying
to rebuild the application that were statically linked dynamically ?
I just checked the FreeBSD site and do not see any release 5.2

Once i can hurl this obsticle, i think FreeBSD might be a viable
solution for me.

Thanks again for your time.

 You need to build FreeBSD with dynamic libraries...
 It only works under -CURRENT with the WITH_DYNAMICROOT=true option in your 
 make.conf.
 I think it is supposed to be the default for 5.2-RELEASE.
