FreeBSD IBM Thinkpad - What Model to Choose?
Hi Daemons, I bet there are FreeBSD-on-Thinkpad users out there. I need some help.. At the moment I search for a laptop, a used model from auction sites, preferably an IBM Thinkpad. There is a huge number of different models, even a Wiki with all the specs. But all the info doesn't help me to decide what model works best for me with FreeBSD. I also have no idea if the BSD drivers work out of the box. No dual boot required - I'll dump the Windows stuff. The model I search for is a cheap low-end type. Small harddisk is fine too, it even can be slow - I use mostly vim, fluxbox, a few small gtk-ports and even get by with a text browser like lynx. Otherwise I would really reqire the Thinkpad to be slim and have some kind of low power consumption (this depends on the kind of processor I guess - I have no clue what processor is a good choice). And an opportunity to use a PCMCIA-Card for a Wifi connection (and drivers for them!). Do you have any good/bad experiences with certain IBM Thinkpads? Is there any special model (line) I should look for? Are there any options I should look for or avoid (no BSD drivers available i.e)?

pgpsendmail instructions
LS, I am trying to get pgpsenmail working but i can't figure out what to do. For example which instance of sendmail can/must be replaced: /usr/libexec/sendmail (which is symbolic link) /usr/sbin/sendmail in both cases, i get the following message: /etc/rc.d ./sendmail restart sendmail not running? (check /var/run/sendmail.pid). Starting sendmail. SENDMAIL refers back to PGPsendmail! Someone didn't read the installation notes... /etc/rc.d sendmail forcestart SENDMAIL refers back to PGPsendmail! Someone didn't read the installation notes... But where can i find these instructions (notes). The man-page (pgpsendmail(8)) does not give any extra info. Can anybody help me?

Advice on secure, simple web forum software
One of my not-for-profit websites is increasing in popularity and users are requesting forums. I am going to add forums now, but I'm not sure which route to take: 1. Install the forums software so it runs on my webserver. 2. Use some third-party forums website [with their advertising probably]. I much prefer #1 to avoid any advertising (which my website is completely free of). Packages currently installed on my system that may be relevant are: apache-2.2.11_7 php5-5.2.10 no databases, e.g. MySQL, are installed I would like to get some recommendations on which route to take. If I'm going to install forums to run directly on my server, the software needs to be secure (as few bugs or loopholes, exploits as possible), the same UNIX user will be running a couple of other small sites. Also simplicity of design is preferred, feature bloat and dependencies are bad. I'm willing to install a database such as MySQL. ___ 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

Trying to apply this to a 6.4 box with no manpages install. Install fails because the man3 directory doesn't exist. is this expected?

Analyze load of the channel to Internet

I think, that this is may be realized by means of ipfw (e.g. - get counters of count rules for Internet and divide them to time, which passed between analyzing) But, maybe, there is an utility, to which I can communicate (or which could analyze) my outgoing channel to Internet - and report me (mean some redirection script) when an outgoing channel gets overflowed, and I need to redirect all other outgoing traffic to another channel. I would like to clear: I have to channels for Internet, meaned for gaming club - but I don't have enough finance to afford buying some Cisco device and this 2 channel are 512 kilobits and 768 kilobits of outgoing traffic Please, help ___ 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

RE: FreeBSD IBM Thinkpad - What Model to Choose?

Sendmail Masqurading and root mails
I have a situation that I've come across from time to time that I have never found a good fix for. Sometimes I'll install a freebsd box at a site with private addresses (RFC 1918). Most of the time these sites also have local DNS setups. I'll take my home network as an example. My FreeBSD box (7.2) does: - File serving - PPP/Routing/NATd for the local network - WWW - Local DNS Nothing special. The network is a 192.168 network and the local domain is .lan The problem is when I try to forward periodic output to my real email address. My email box see's the EHLO from beastie.lan and rejects the message based on the fact that r...@beastie.lan is an unroutable address. There are a few solutions I've used in the past. - Replace sendmail with exim and configure the SMTP domain. - Put beastie.lan in my email servers hosts file. Neither of these are what I am looking for. I'd like to make sendmail re-write all outgoing emails (envelope as well as message) as *...@some.real.domain instead of *...@beastie.lan. I have a simple sendmail submit setup. (sendmail=no in rc.conf) I've added the following to the default sendmail mc file: MASQUERADE_AS(`mypublicdomain.com')dnl FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)dnl MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(beasie.lan)dnl Recompiled the cf files and restarted sendmail. Here is the kicker. If I log in as a normal user it masquerades just fine. If I simply su - to root, the masquerading works fine and the mail is sent as the original logged in user. But if I log in as root via the console then it does not alter the messages. Apart from ditching sendmail for another MTA, does anyone know how I might coerce sendmail into rewriting root's messages as well? ___ 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

Another idea could be giving 7.x a shot as it has newer version of PF IIRC. That's on the list of things to try, but upgrading will probably be painful, so I'm hoping to find something else first. Something else you might want to try is to find/install the new PF from source, if you don't want to try a general upgrade. ___ 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
freebsd-update userland sources
Is there a way to get freebsd-update to keep userland sources up to
date?
I had thought that having src, world and kernel as components in the
freebsd-update.conf file would do this but it doesn't seem to. Do I
just add usr.bin and usr.sbin to the components list in the conf file
and run freebsd-update or is it more complex than this? I have read
the man pages on this but there must be a gap between my english and
how the man pages are written because I'm obviously missing the point
somewhere.
By way of background, I am trying not to use csup / cvsup and like
processes as their past, admittedly incorrect, usage by me, combined
with my incompetent salvage operations, has hosed my systems to the
point of needing to be reinstalled from scratch. I have been using a
combination of portsnap and freebsd-update to keep my 7.2-RELEASE
system up to date and commenced this at about 6.3-RELEASE and have
managed to not hose the system since that time. It now however appears
I need to have userland sources to keep fusefs-kmod up to date.

By default sendmail does not MASQUERADE root (figuring that you get
root mail from several of your machines and want to see which machine
it is from). In the old days there was a feature
NO_MASQUERADE_ROOT, but looking through cf/README I see that that is
one of the many things that have changed since I last seriously worked
with sendmail.
Now sendmail has a class of exposed users. These are usernames for
which masquerading shouldn't take place. By default, root is in there.
There is an .mc file directive
EXPOSED(`username')
which, according to the documentation, adds usernames to the list that
shouldn't be masqueraded. Unfortunately, I don't see a mechanism for
removing members from the E (Exposed) class.
You could try
EXPOSED()
or
EXPOSED(`')
to see if either will remove things in the E class.
The offending line in the generated .cf file is
C{E}root
if you still end up with that, then root will not get masqueraded.
So if the above doesn't work, there probably is a clean way of
clearing a class from the .mc file, but I don't know what it is.
Hopefully others will be able to answer.
In the worst case, you could manually edit the generated .cf file, to
remove the
C{E}root
line, but that is not really a road I would recommend going down.
At the risk of suggesting something that you probably know you should
do in the long run, but would take a lot of tedious work to set up,
you should probably move away from having your private network be .lan.
Instead use .private.mypublicdomain.com and set up a local (on your
private network) nameserver for that private subdomain.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
Cheers,
-j

It sounds like you could solve this by merely downloading
and untarring the sources. Or untarring the sources from
your CD, if you have one.
Download everything in
http://mirror.pacific.net.au/FreeBSD/releases/i386/7.2-RELEASE/src/
into a directory and issue
./install.sh all
This should work fine, even if you are running some other architecture
as the sources are the same.

kdc = SYSLOG:INFO:AUTH

I an use ldapsearch as follows:
acsvfbsd06# ldapsearch -v -LLL -b
OU=Mitgliedsserver,OU=ACH,DC=Domain,DC=tld -h acsv3k04.domain.tld

SASL data security layer installed.
filter: (objectclass=*)
requesting: description
dn: OU=Mitgliedsserver,OU=ACH,DC=Domain,DC=tld
...
[snip]
So far all looks well.
For the Cyrus Imapd setup I run saslauthd -a kerberos5.
/usr/local/etc/imapd.conf:
configdirectory: /usr/imap/var/imap
partition-default: /usr/imap/var/spool/imap

sasl_mech_list: GSSAPI PLAIN LOGIN CRAM-MD5 DIGEST-MD5
sasl_log_level: 7
lmtpsocket: /usr/imap/var/imap/socket/lmtp
allowplaintext: yes
Each time I start a test by
- testsaslauthd -u user -p password
or
- imtest -m plain -a user localhost
I get ervery time
saslauthd[42062]: do_auth : auth failure: [user=user]
[service=imap] [realm=] [mech=kerberos5] [reason=krb5_verify_user_opt
failed]
The krb5_verify_user_opt failed is comming from the Kerberos 5 Library
(libkrb5, -lkrb5) - krb5_verify_user_opt and is located in the
auth_krb5.c (from SASL).
I ckecked the kerberos/DNS communication on both sides with tshark and
Netmon (Microsoft's tcpdump) but the kerberos communications seems
to be ok. Additionaly I started also a struss on saslauthd but also
without any look.
So I have now no more ideas where I can check. Any hints are welcome.
Regards,
