I have a lot on my plate right now so I can't guarantee that I'll solve this soon. Would depending on x11-driver/xorg-drivers instead of requiring VIDEO_DRIVER being set help at all? I intended this port to be used when you require X11 to up and running fast without any overhead. That is why things like xset aren't installed. It is possible to run X11 with the vesa driver even if you can get better performance with a different driver.

installing FreeBSD in VMWare-player (was: running FreeBSD on Windows host)
El día Tuesday, August 24, 2010 a las 01:10:00PM +0300, Manolis Kiagias escribió: I have produced three dumps: from the /, /var and /usr file system. The man page of restore(8) reads about creating pristine file system, made by newfs(8). Later, in the VM environment, I'd like to have only one big file system... Is it possible to restore the tree dumps into one big file system or do I have to rebuild the same slicing as I now have? You won't have to rebuild the slicing. Just create the relevant directories in your big file system, cd into them and use restore. Will it be a problem having the kernel /boot/* in this case far away from the beginning of the partition? I did some 1st tests with installing FreeBSD into a VM. I grabed some other laptop which runs already Win7 and installed a VMWare-player in it to do some tests. Of course the VMWare-player was not able to boot from a prepared USB key. A workaround was a boot from some ISO image of a boot manger (I used plpbt-5.0.10.zip from http://www.plop.at/) which allows you to choose the USB storage as boot device after 1st stage boot. The system comes up fine from the USB key and I created a 160 GByte slice with the standard procedure like: # fdisk -I /dev/ad0 # fdisk -B /dev/ad0 # bsdlabel -w ad0s1 auto # bsdlabel -B ad0s1 edit the disk label and change partition a from unused to 4.2BSD as partition type: # setenv EDITOR /usr/bin/vi # bsdlabel -e ad0s1 create the future root-filesystem on it and mount it to /mnt for the installation: # newfs -m 0 -o space /dev/ad0s1a # mount /dev/ad0s1a /mnt install freebsd into /mnt; this assumes that you have the kernel and userland in /usr/src and /usr/obj ready to be installed; # cd /usr/src # make installworld DESTDIR=/mnt The 'make installworld' failed with errors in the Makefiles (...); for example the file /usr/src/lib/libc/uuid/Makefile.inc had a line like this: SRCS+? uuid_compare.c uuid_create.c uuid_create_nil.c uuid_equal.c \ uuid_from_stringc uuid_hash.c uuid_is_nil.c uuid_stream.# \ uuid_to_string.c where it should have: SRCS+= uuid_compare.c uuid_create.c uuid_create_nil.c uuid_equal.c \ uuid_from_string.c uuid_hash.c uuid_is_nil.c uuid_stream.c \ uuid_to_string.c (note the ? singn and the # sign), i.e. the content was broken and some other files were missing in the /usr/src tree of the USB key. I used the same key last year to install from it the system to my netbook EeePC and it worked like it should. Since then the USB key was unused and carried around in the bag of my laptop.

My primary concern is overall security of the server (even if that means inconveniencing the end users), and I'm wondering if one method might be better than the other? It depends what you mean by SFTP. If you mean the SSH sub-system (file transfer tunnelled over SSH using a client which works like the FTP client), then there is no practical difference in security compared to scp(1). sftp(1) and scp(1) are very similar over the wire and server-side: it's just the client interface that's different. On the other hand, if you mean crusty old FTP tarted up with some SSL trappings -- which should really be called FTPS, but lots of people are confused about the naming -- then *run away*. It may run over SSL, but it has all of the design flaws of regular FTP plus the fact that it's over SSL means you can't even use firewall proxies like ftp-proxy(8). If you want a means of secure upload that can be used natively from windows, try WebDAV. You can, in theory, mount a WebDAV directory as a partition in Windows, although this is a lot more painful than it needs to be. (As they say: with Windows, failure is not an option). The same thing on a Mac works beautifully, but then it's Unix already and you can just use sftp or scp natively from Terminal.app. See the appendix to the SVN manual for some useful hints: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn-book.html#svn.webdav Cheers, Matthew -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 7 Priory Courtyard Flat 3 PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Ramsgate JID: matt...@infracaninophile.co.uk Kent, CT11 9PW SFTP is better than scp if you just want to transfer files, as the users dont have to have shell access to the box to use the openssh SFTP system.

Problems with upgrade - lost partition
Hi,
I recently updated a machine (running on VMWare) from 7.2 to 8.1.
This machine has two (virtual) disks. While the upgrade went rather
smooth ('make buildworld, make buildkernel, make installkernel, reboot
into single user, mergemaster -p, make installworld, mergemaster,
reboot), I lost the partition on the second harddrive.
So after reboot, the machine went directly in single user mode, because
my /dev/ad1s1a was gone. The only devices in /dev where ad1 (the disk)
and ad1s1 (the slice).
Since I had a backup this didn't seem to be such a problem, however
recreating the slice was.
The only way I could get rid of that slice was through the gpart utility
(sysinstall wouldn't help me at all):
gpart delete ad1s1
gpart destroy ad1
After that sysinstall worked again. Is there any way around this (and
preferably rescue the partition somehow, since I have more machines to
upgrade, and while backups are there, restoring creates an additional
delay in the whole process).
Also, the numbering of the NICs changed from le0 to le1, which isn't
that a big problem, but rather annoying.
Thanks in advance.
Peter

Re: Could not chdir to home directory
Hiya Nita,... I'm sure you'll get lots of help on this list. Just a question for you. Any chance you could convice the Juniper bigwigs to release the source code for the DX platform given that it's now end of life? I know it was based on FreeBSD and, as a former Redline/DX user I know it's got some nice stuff under the hood. I know that the BSD community would be thrilled if Juniper were to give something back to the people who provided the platform that DX was based on. If such a thing were to happen, I know I'd find it hard to ever recommend a different network tech vendor to my clients. It's a long shot, but I figured it was worth asking the question ;-) -D p.s. if you still are stuck with your homedir problems, feel free to contact me off-list.

Problem installing Bacula client on win 2008 64 bit server
Hello
Trying to install bacula client on win 2008 64 bit server. After
installation the bacula client should start automatically but it dont. I
then tried to start the bacula windows service manually but are getting the
following (and pointless) error message: Error 1067. The prosess terminated
unexpektedly.
Ok, so now i open a CMD window and try to start the service
by starting bacula-fd.exe, but with no luck. Then I add the -t option and
get the error message:
27-Aug 13:14 bacula-fd: ERROR TERMINATION at
/home/kern/bacula/k/bacula/src/lib/ parse_conf.c:898
Config error: Cannot open config file
C:\ProgramData\Bacula/bacula-fd.conf: No such file or directory
I try to look in the ProgramDate catalogue to see if i can find the
bacula-fd.conf file and have a look in it. But there is no ProgramData
catalogue. The bacula-fd.conf file is in in C:/Program files/bacula
catalogue. Looks like this:

Monitor = yes
}
# Send all messages except skipped files back to Director
Messages {
Name = Standard
director = backup.mydomainname.com-fd = all, !skipped, !restored
}
The password is the same on the client and the servert, I checked
that. Anyhow, it should be possible to start the deamon/service even if the
client have no contact with the servere, right?
Anybody have a fix on this?
Best regards

Re: Problem installing Bacula client on win 2008 64 bit server
On Fri, 27 Aug 2010 13:35:12 +0200
Albin Vega albinv4...@gmail.com articulated:
Hello
Trying to install bacula client on win 2008 64 bit server. After
installation the bacula client should start automatically but it
dont. I then tried to start the bacula windows service manually but
are getting the following (and pointless) error message: Error 1067.
The prosess terminated unexpektedly.
Ok, so now i open a CMD window and try to start the service
by starting bacula-fd.exe, but with no luck. Then I add the -t option
and get the error message:
27-Aug 13:14 bacula-fd: ERROR TERMINATION at
/home/kern/bacula/k/bacula/src/lib/ parse_conf.c:898
Config error: Cannot open config file
C:\ProgramData\Bacula/bacula-fd.conf: No such file or directory
I try to look in the ProgramDate catalogue to see if i can find the
bacula-fd.conf file and have a look in it. But there is no ProgramData
catalogue. The bacula-fd.conf file is in in C:/Program files/bacula
catalogue. Looks like this:
#
# Default Bacula File Daemon Configuration file

# For Bacula release 5.0.3 (08/05/10) -- Windows MinGW64

#

}

Password = @monitor_password@
Monitor = yes
}
# Send all messages except skipped files back to Director
Messages {

director = backup.mydomainname.com-fd = all, !skipped, !restored
}
The password is the same on the client and the servert, I checked
that. Anyhow, it should be possible to start the deamon/service even
if the client have no contact with the servere, right?
Anybody have a fix on this?
Have you tried starting from:
Control Panel Administrative Tools Component Services
Locate the service and try starting it there. The error message would
be a lot more revealing. You could click the Event Viewer and try to
locate the problem in one of the logs.
I did notice a post on an MS Forum, I forgot which one, that the latest
version of Bacula does not work on Windows. You apparent have to use a
deprecated version.
In any case, this might be better suited to an MS Forum discussion.

I've used it before, but found this as an example with a web search.

The source IP address can be any on either network and its highly likely that we will see packets from the same source network on both at the same time. The only distinction I see in the input packets between the two paths is the MAC address of the router. I don't see any way in pf or the system to use that to affect the return path though. the filter option reply-to looks to be what you need. It works by keeping the state of a connection (see pf.conf(5)). That works great on the output if you can figure out which packets to use it on. The only way I can see to separate the traffic is using the router MAC address. I don't find anything in pf that will look at that. Yes, pf cannot use the MAC address to classify a packet. The most sensible sollution would be installing a single router to handle both lines but I know it's not always feasible to do so for several reasons. ipfw can use MAC addresses for classification, perhaps you hack some rules using fwd, skipto and mac.

No; the utimes() syscall can be used to easily set the creation time (called birth time so it doesn't get confused with the ctime file metadata change time). More likely is that whoever added birthtime to ufs didn't bother updating the msdosfs code. If one of the other BSD's has implemented it, it should be relatively easy to import the changes. Otherwise you'll probably have to look at how birthtime is currently handled in ufs, and make it work in msdosfs. -- Dan Nelson dnel...@allantgroup.com ___ 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: Howto create FAT32 bootable USB device with gpart?

I need those USB mem sticks for BIOS flashing purposes on an older main PCB, utilizing FreeDOS. The old BIOS is capable of booting off from USB mem sticks, since I booted and installed FreeBSD via this method. But the creation of a bootable FreeDOS USB mem stick failed. I have FreeBSD 9.0 as a mastering operating system and 8 GB sticks. These are the boundary conditions. Is there any way to perform this task with gpart? Bootable FAT is sort of a strange thing. As such, I have written up a few methods for producing FAT boot disks using either Win98 DOS and DosBox or using FreeDOS and a perl script called 'sys-freedos.pl'. http://wiki.cyberleo.net/wiki/KnowledgeBase/DOSBoot It shouldn't be too difficult to use the instructions to produce a bootable memstick; just keep in mind that you may have to slice it and install an mbr, as so-called 'superfloppy' layout isn't always supported.
