Chuck, perhaps I should explain better what's going on. I've a VMS cluster behind a FBSD frontend, acting as a router and a firewall. (Don't ask why.. the Uni are not happy to connect VMS to the local network directly. Just because they haven't been using it for 10 year, they think it is not secure - what nonsence, but nevermind.) I access VMS cluster using ssh with port forwarding. In case a node in my VMS cluster goes down, its IP is automatically given to another alive VMS node - a VMS cluster feature. For example: Imagine the VMS cluster consisting of 2 nodes - Node1 and Node2. The IP are: Node1 10.10.10.1 (failover to 10.10.10.2) Node2 10.10.10.2 (failover to 10.10.10.1) and in ipnat.rules: rdr dc0 xx.xx.xx.xx port x - 10.10.10.1 port 22 This works fine until Node1 is down, in which case the cluster software directs all connections to 10.10.10.1 to Node2. Since its key doesn't match what's in known_hosts, the connection is refused. At present I tune the VMS cluster and reboot individual nodes frequently.

Converting from tcpdump to netflow
Hello everybody: I'm capturing packets from our network using tcpdump. Only 96 bytes for each packet. Now the sysmaster says that he wants analyze the network with netflow graphics. Is there any app that can convert from tcpdump/pcap to netflow? We have no router with netflow capabilities. Should i restart the packet capture with fprobe or similar app? Can be fprobe and tcpdump work in parallel?

Once I had the same issue. You should boot up somehow (you can even use the 7.0 install CD). Make sure you have the directory /boot/zfs and do a zpool import. After this you should have a valid zpool.cache file which you need to copy to your mirror device. PLMK if this works for you as this is also my desired setup.

With, it seems, at least two exceptions: * Some apps -- such as Wordpad and Write -- are packaged and installed with Windows, rather than on separate media. Are there instructions somewhere for installing such an app under wine? I'm certainly not finding it at all obvious. Such apps you can only try to copy over to Wine. Wine has its own simple version of Wordpad though. Just run wine wordpad. * Some add-on (separately installable) apps are packaged on multiple diskettes (or multiple CDs for that matter). Pre-mounting the first, and pointing wine at the mount point, seems likely to result in getting stuck partway through the install when it asks for the second disk. The version of Visio that I have is in the second category. You should ask about this on the wine-users mailing list. It should be possible to unmount the disk when it asks for the next one. If you can't then that's a bug. The manpage describes a way of pointing wine to a device rather than to a mounted filesystem: The Unix device corresponding to a DOS drive can be specified the same way, except with '::' instead of ':'. So for the previous example, if the CDROM device is mounted from /dev/hdc, the corresponding symlink would be $WINEPREFIX/dosdevices/d:: - /dev/hdc. but, as reported elsewhere, wine could not find setup.exe on the Visio install diskette with dosdevices set up this way. I'm not entirely sure, but I think the :: link is only used for raw access to devices. Wine doesn't mount disks on its own. ... You also might want to have a look at http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks for a script that can install and setup various packages ... Unfortunately, I can't find Visio in its list of packages. Yes, it's only for extra packages (libs, fonts,..) like mfc42.dll and such. It's just that installing DLLs via winetricks might be easier than trying to figure out what DLLs to copy from a Windows install. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Problems mounting by label
I am trying to set up labels on a USB HD so that I can mount it in the same place each time I connect it. The short version is that from what I've done (which I will detail below) when I try to $ sudo mount /dev/ufs/Back1s1 /Volumes/Back1 mount: /dev/ufs/Back1s1 : Invalid argument While $ sudo mount /dev/da4s1 /Volumes/Back1 does work. Using the latter defeats the purpose however, since I want eventually to mount things to a different mount point depending on their label. Here is more detail of what I've done so far. I'm running RELENG_7_0 One thing that I've noticed is that /dev/da4s1 and /dev/ufs/Back1s1 have different device numbers: ls -l /dev/da4* /dev/ufs crw-r- 1 root operator0, 121 Apr 10 03:57 /dev/da4 crw-r- 1 root operator0, 122 Apr 10 03:57 /dev/da4s1 /dev/ufs: total 0 crw-r- 1 root operator0, 123 Apr 10 03:57 Back1 crw-r- 1 root operator0, 124 Apr 10 03:57 Back1s1 But that might not mean anything. I first used fdisk to change the active slice to be of FreeBSD type (I'm not planning on using these disks for other systems.) Here is what fdisk currently reports $ fdisk /dev/da4 *** Working on device /dev/da4 *** parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=9729 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=9729 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl) Media sector size is 512 Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 1 is: sysid 165 (0xa5),(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD) start 16065, size 156280320 (76308 Meg), flag 80 (active) beg: cyl 1/ head 0/ sector 1; end: cyl 512/ head 254/ sector 63 The data for partition 2 is: UNUSED The data for partition 3 is: UNUSED The data for partition 4 is: UNUSED I also used glabel to try to get a label on it, but couldn't see how I could use the glabel information for mounting. here is what glabel reports for the device $ glabel dump /dev/da4s1 Metadata on /dev/da4s1: Magic string: GEOM::LABEL Metadata version: 2 Label: Backup 1 So not knowing how to use the glabel information for mounting I used the -L option to newfs when I created the USF2 filesystem on /dev/da4s1 $ tunefs -p /dev/da4s1 tunefs: ACLs: (-a) disabled tunefs: MAC multilabel: (-l) disabled tunefs: soft updates: (-n) disabled tunefs: gjournal: (-J) disabled tunefs: maximum blocks per file in a cylinder group: (-e) 2048 tunefs: average file size: (-f)16384 tunefs: average number of files in a directory: (-s) 64 tunefs: minimum percentage of free space: (-m) 8% tunefs: optimization preference: (-o) time tunefs: volume label: (-L) Back1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/ufs]$ (oops, I probably should turn on ACLs for this, but that is another matter).

hi,

the background:
unfortunately the network monitor build into superkaramba does not work
for freebsd, os i want to write a widget which uses sysctl or any other
tool if available got get this information. systat is not appropriate
to be used because it does not terminate on its own as i see.
I'm using a modified version of Superkarambas CompactMonitor. It is
written
for Linux I think, but easily adaptable for freebsd.
All I did was moddify the
~/.kde/share/apps/superkaramba/themes/CompactMonitor/CompactMonitor.theme
file :
text x=435 y=50 sensor=network device=vr0 format=%in KB/s
decimals=1
text x=370 y=50 value=Download
text x=570 y=50 sensor=program program=netstat -ibh | grep Link#1 |
awk '{print $7}' align=right interval=1000
text x=435 y=65 sensor=network device=vr0 format=%out KB/s decimals=1
text x=370 y=65 value=Upload
text x=570 y=65 sensor=program program=netstat -ibh | grep Link#1 |
awk '{print $10}' align=right interval=1000
Add
graph x=370 y=30 sensor=network device=vr0 format=%out w=200 h=15
color=255,127,127 interval=1000 max=100
graph x=370 y=30 sensor=network device=vr0 format=%in w=200 h=15
color=127,230,180 interval=1000 max=100
if you want to add a graphic representation and change the vr0 according
to
your (ethernet) device.
It works for me with kde 3.5.8 on 7.0-stable.

Re: Firewalls
Doug Hardie wrote: FreeBSD supports 3 firewalls: IPF, IPFW, and PF. Some time ago (perhaps years) I seem to recall some discussion that one or more of those was better maintained and higher quality than the others. I don't see any indications of this in the handbook. Several years ago I needed to do traffic shaping and used IPFW with dummynet. It worked but the need eventually went away. More recently I needed to incorporate spamd which defaults to PF so I used that. However, now I am back to needing traffic shaping again. I suspect trying to use both PF and IPFW simultaneously will not be a good approach. In addition, there now are instructions for using spamd with IPFW so it appears that either PF or IPFW will do what I need. Is there any additional information available to assist in selecting between those? Thanks. As I understand it pf is often found to be easiest to use and has lots of features like altq and os fingerprinting but is quite a bit slower than ipfw. -- Bruce ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Recommendations for BSD Unix Toolbox: 1000+ Commands for FreeBSD BSD Books
What are folks recommendations for the updated edition of BSD UNIX Toolbox: 1000+ Commands for FreeBSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD (Paperback)by Christopher Negus (Author), Francois Caen (Author)? Overall, Absolute FreeBSD boosted my confidence/competence but as my only printed Unix/Linux/BSD resource although it is not the be one and end all resource to FreeBSD as I was hoping for, particularly when it comes to slightly more advanced topics as building a production LAMP server. I have the budget for another book. I don't have access to a print version so I can really check it out before I buy. Has anyone found BSD UNIX useful, more than useless, or redundant? Is it organized and indexed well? Is a good read on the toilet or only when when your working on a box? Hasn't some other sys admin documented their commands really well and shared them? This recommendation would be for a FreeBSD novice user. If they didn't know how to script and had a choice between BSD UNIX Toolbox and a book about how to script, what would they be better off getting? On that note, does anyone have recommendations for a freebsd orientated beginners guide to scripting and using scripts to manage a freebsd box and common systems/services/daemons? loonybomber May the admins live long and prosper. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have the budget for another book. Configuring a ?AMP server is largely not really OS specific (apart from things like firewalling). The AMP part should work on all UNIX-like systems. Of course FreeBSD has ports, which makes installation of the software easier. Some searching on the internet is certain to give you lots of tutorials. This recommendation would be for a FreeBSD novice user. If they didn't know how to script and had a choice between BSD UNIX Toolbox and a book about how to script, what would they be better off getting? Depends on the persons other exerience. I switched to FreeBSD after having used Slackware Linux for several years. With the Handbook and the manual pages, I fealt at home straight away. For novices, I would teach them system administration first, and scripting later. On that note, does anyone have recommendations for a freebsd orientated beginners guide to scripting and using scripts to manage a freebsd box and common systems/services/daemons? There is a lot of usefull documentation included with FreeBSD, starting with the Handbook and FAQ. Look in /usr/share/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books Daemons belonging to the base system or available via ports come with a control script in (/usr/local)/etc/rc.d. There is no need to write your own, unless you want to contribute a new port, which is not really a job for a novice. However, one can learn a lot by studying the already available scripts and the infrastructure that supports them. I've also found the Advanced Bash-Scripting Guide [http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/] usefull, although one has to be carefull of bash-specific features not supported by FreeBSD's /bin/sh.

Re: Problem with reconnecting ppp (ppp -ddial isp)

Link does not properly get reconnected. ppp tries to connect, and appearenty is connected, but something is wrong because no traffic is possible and after few seconds ppp goes down and reconnects again. And again and again Strange above all is that during reconnecting routing table always has default route, but ping does not go. Next, I will put some information that I think is relevant to problem, but it seems to me, not very useful in debugging this. I don't know if it's exactly the same problem, but I've had a similar problem with userland ppp and even submitted logfiles of forced disconnects. I thought the problem was with ng_pppoe, but apparently, it is with ppp(8). Unfortunately, ppp's maintainer didn't reply or chime in, and the problem is obviously still lingering there, deep inside ppp or between ppp and ng_pppoe. :( The thread started here: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2007-December/038874.html You may not have hit the very same bug, but the circumstances are pretty much similar. Someone really ought to have a look at ppp. Fortunately, with the help from Alexander and Julian, I've switched to net/mpd5, and didn't encounter any problems with this 24h forced ADSL disconnect ever since (running RELENG_7 now).

Syncing Mail After Cut Over
Whould it be acceptable to use rsync to sync the mail spool after using dump/restore onto new hardware?

This is easy if your mail stores use Maildir where each message is in a file. I have done it many times, including at ISPs with tens of thousands of e-mail accounts. We set up a new server, create the necessary accounts on it, move all DNS to point to that server so that clients go to the new one, then rsync over their old $HOME directories to the new server. It's a completely different kettle of fish if the mail stores are in single files such as the standard BSD/Unix mail stores, U.W.
