Let me pass my Sun Crypto 1000 (BCM5921/23) through to a Jailhost FreeBSD 7.2, then try it within a jail. Should be quite a head trip. ~BAS specifically, freebsd 7.1 amd64? and, is it transparent in 'jail' so all jailed servers can use the one card? ___ freebsd-jail@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-jail To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-jail-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

That's by design per the releng document. Hey, my ESXi 4.0 machine is PCI-Express only. My Broadcom cards are 32bit PCI-X. I had a PCI-E but had to return it as a demo.

bind()/sendto() behavior in RELENG_7
All: Did the behavior of bind()/sendto() functions WRT jails change in proximity to the RELENG_7_2 branch? I just spent 1.5 days chasing, what I thought was a bug in Courier-MTA's IPv6 socket selection code within Jails, to realize a paradox of a configuration scenario: My ESTMP client libraries in Courier were programed to explicitly bind() to a specific source address. The system in question was RELENG_7 from last month; but was upgraded to 7.2-R last week, when this problem was observed. After which, I began to receive: Can't assign requested address, as expected. Unfortunately, we also enabled IPv6 on the system at the same time, complicating troubleshooting. The configuration for Courier in the jail is being rsync(1)'d every hour from a production environment (where explicit binding for System-Service abstraction is a security policy requirement) to a DRP system within a Jail. So as far as I know, the explicit bind was always present in the DRP jail and in theory, should never have worked. I hypothesize that after 7.2-R was installed, the correct behavior of bind() began to occur, and that prior to that, it was gracefully allowing Courier to bind() to an IP that wasn't present in the jail. Unfortunately, I don't have any records of what the RELENG_7 build date was of the original jail environment to test this hypothesis. ~BAS ___ freebsd-jail@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-jail To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-jail-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
