Re: FIXED: vpnc connects, but does not work
... I do have a Linux OS that I have access to that strangely does use vpnc successfully. That may help quite a bit. You can use something like tcpdump or wireshark on the FreeBSD system to monitor the traffic between the Linux system and the Cisco while connecting and doing something simple like pinging the inside nameserver, then reverse roles and use the Linux system to monitor the traffic between FreeBSD and the Cisco while connecting and attempting to do the same simple thing.

Alas, this is a multi-boot system where the Linux OS is installed - so no chance of that :-( I've just determined that it might not be a problem with vpnc..,as such. I got an ethernet connection to work just now, so it looks as if its just down to now vpnc is handling my wifi interface, for some reason. As I said originally, this **was** working, and now its stopped for some reason. I'm now fairly certain that its not got anything to do with vpnc natively, as I used the same vpnc conf file to successfully access the office over ethernet. I'll keep at it.., Thanks for your assistance!

You need to store them to another location outside /usr/src -- /home/ncvs is a good place since the uid and gid that the cvs will serve as is called 'ncvs' I'd keep progressing forward, leaving the defaults alone.

bwi: no DS tssi no OFDM tssi
Hello, I am attempting to get by broadcom wifi card up and running, am sick of trying to get ndis working, and am attempting to use the bwi driver (originating in dragonflyBSD). I'm hoping others here have tried to do the same and have some pointers. I'm using 7.1-RELEASE (system/source are in-sync) and my card is a BCM94306MP. My dmesg is posted below. Bwi(4) is installed and it recognizes my card (*if_bwi_load-YES* is in my /etc/rc.conf and *bwi_v3* and *if_bwi* are loaded). I can send a IP request to my WEP encrypted access point. Yet, it doesn't get an offer and says that *no DS tssi* and *no OFDM tssi* Being new to bwi(4) and have never seen references to DS/OFDM tssi, I'm not sure what info to provide.

Re: Mounting a partition from freebsd 6.2?
I can run a check disk on it and it returned that the file system was previously mounted on /mnt/backup and returns that the file system is in good shape. I will have to wait until I get back in front of it to attempt the dump piped to restore. I have never had to recover a drive like that, is there anything specific I should look at for switches or just dump /dev/ad2s1 | restore?

Instead of trying to really recover it I decided to just rebuild. I have a backup of my /etc and /usr/local/etc on a different drive that should be fine, it was just mounted under /mnt normally and used for backups. My problem is that I installed 7.1 and was careful not to erase any data on that drive, but my only options for a partition to mount is /dev/ad2s1. When I try to mount that it gives me mount: /dev/ad2s1 : Operation not permitted, what can I do to get the data off of it?

Re: Printing - standard? CUPS? ...??
Ewald Jenisch wrote: Should I go for the standard vanilla FreeBSD lpr that comes with the system or use anything else? If anything else - what (CUPS,...?) Please note that I want to print both from gnome (X-win) as well as via the commadline. I was looking forward to using CUPS when I built my FreeBSD machine over year ago. I found that CUPS was a snap to set up and worked beautifully by itself. The problem was that certain other software (gtk+ and gnome as I recall) expected /usr/bin/lpr to be the CUPS lpr (the CUPS port normally installs lpr to /usr/local/bin). It was also necessary for some applications to have /usr/local/bin before /usr/bin in your path for certain applications to work. My memory is vague regarding the details, though. I remember seeing something on the internet that recommended setting a flag in the port to install CUPS to /usr/bin. That was too drastic for my tastes, so I decided to just set up FreeBSD printing and be done with it. By all means, give CUPS a try though.

Looking for pointer to VPN / IPSEC info
I have a personal network behind a FreeBSD firewall running IPFW. It's been working fine for years, but as I'm getting more mobile in my work I'd like to be able to access my network while traveling. At work the problem is solved with an IPSEC VPN client that I run to connect to the appropriate server. As I looked through my normal traveling gear my laptop (Windows XP Pro) and handheld (iPaq 211) both seem to have IPSEC clients built in. Can someone point me to a VPN for dummies documentation so I can set up my firewall to also provide me an access point for me to connect to my home network while I'm travelling? I've looked through the handbook, but it seems to only discuss the old KAME version of IPSEC and also doesn't appear to apply to my situation where the client will have some random IP address. I appreciate any pointers to HOWTO documents, books or other references that might be of use to further my education.

I don't use sendmail, personally -- too inexperienced and the configuration process confuses me. So in layman terms: Clear all blank and commented lines out of the .cf file For good measure, hexdump the saved file to see if you find any abnormal characters for sendmail. What I'm unsure of, is after clearing the .cf file up, does sendmail have this configuration in memory so it will CONSTANTLY complain until a new config is generated? This, compared to say any other common app that reads it's .conf file at startup and doesn't keep any of it as part of the binary itself. I feel I didn't explain this very well.

Re: Replace SCSI Drive
snip Not to be presumptious, or rude, but I've read the first part of this thread (a bit late, yes) and I'm just confused. If you're going to go so far as to prep the drive at home, before driving to the NOC, with a unrunnable OS on a labeled disk, it seems silly. I propose: Do a typical install of FreeBSD 6.4/7.1 on this disk. Let it be as full as to boot an operating system (but maybe skip out on the networking blah blah setups). Bring this (verified) bootable disk to the NOC, install it as da0 Move the old, 73GB failing disk to da1 Boot the Dell, maybe running in single-user mode You've got a pristine format (or pristine enough) to restore the filesystems on top of it. Rebooting with da0 again to see if your network settings, startup, apps, etc etc etc all start as appropriate. Only if this method fails, do you use the Fixit CD and fix it Am I crazy to think this is the more logical, more straightforward way to perform this migration? If Grant has already done the job, more power to him, but I just found it a little confusing that one would label a drive, format it, and possibly spend more time with the slower CD-ROM based Fixit than running off a nice, new 10k/15k RPM drive to drive everything. If my method above is failing a point, I'd be more than happy to hear your statements and correct my procedures for it. My method above has only one tricky part, is to restore the 'a' partition from olddrive to newdrive. -- and that is probably a piece of cake. Grant, good luck (if you haven't done it yet). --Tim ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
NFS or an alternative?
I am in the process of redesigning my organization's network. And, since we will be using mostly Macintosh OS X clients, I am considering using NFS. However, I will need the ability to perform user/group authentication since users may not always log in from the same PC. Essentially, each user has a home directory which only they, and possibly their secretary, needs to have access to. And, we have directories which groups of people need access to. From the reading I have done this evening, my understanding is NFSv4 will meet all of these needs. Is this correct? And, is there a better way to accomplish this?

From the reading I have done this evening, my understanding is NFSv4 will meet all of these needs. Is this correct? And, is there a better way to accomplish this? NFS is only part of the problem. We have done this using OS X, Linux, and FreeBSD clients using openldap for authentication and the amd automounter to handle home directories when there are multiple machines on which user's home directories may be found. When we create the openldap records, we map /home/username to /homes/username to avoid conflict with client machine's local user's directories. We have one system with about 10,000 users with multiple client machines handling mail delivery, pop, and imap to user's Maildir stores with the NFS mounted $HOME directories which has been working without a hitch for several years. In this case the main systems /home directory is NFS mounted to /homes on the client machine, specifying the tcp protocol for maximum reliability.
