Re: hosting more than one website on a cable connection (DHCP)... and using BIND
However, I don't know how to distinguish more than one domain name when using only one IP address. Domains are controled by their zonefiles in bind.conf The (separate) zonefiles contain the ip# of the zone. There is no reason you can't give blah.cx and blahbla.nt the same ip. As long as you provide the same nameserver IP for all domains you want to host ;-)) Also, is it possible for the home DNS and the third party DNS's to work in tandem? That I don't know. I have four real domains myself. One is hosted by an ISP, the other three I host at home. nagual.st ; nagual.cx and lothlorien.cx all point to the same ip# The rest is handled by the dnsserver at home wich is authorative for all three domains and their subs. I found a friend who was willing to host two other dns servers as slaves. Does any of this make sense? Sure.

getting vnc to start at boot is tricky, since you want it to start as some user, rather than as root.

Persario 5360 will not boot 4.7
Hello, I have a Compaq Persario 5360 and I'm trying to install 4.7. The problem is I can not get the system to boot off 3.5 floppy drive. The system is old enough so booting off the cd-rom is not possible. I know you can boot off the floppy driver because I can boot DOS and I'm sure the diskette that has the kern.flp bits is ok because I've used it to boot other machines. Actually I want out and got brand new diskettes thinking that might be the problem... I created the floppy on a linux machine by doing a dd if=kern.flp of=/dev/fd0 I also try using the fdimage.exe binary on win98 and still no luck. The system does see diskette because the green access light goes on but then it goes off and the screen is blank with the cursor blinking in the upper left hand corner. Curiously enough, Alt-Cntl-Del will reboot (or restart) the system so something is running somewhere. The BIOS is relativity simple and I've probably tried every thing that look interesting to try It almost seem like they (Compaq) has made so the bios will only boot Windows. If that is the case Compaq/HP should be shot Has anybody seen anything like this? Any ideas on how to debug this? Thanks, SteveD.

Weird NIS master problem
I have two FBSD NIS machines, the master is running 4.6 and the slave is at 4.7. The slave works properly, it's the master that is acting strangely. The master is also serving as a router with 2 nic cards, and is running ntpd. It processes NIS stuff, just *really* slowly. It is not doing firewall stuff (yet). For example, running 'truss id dsilver' it stalls right after running 'gettimeofday' but eventually answers back properly. The same behavior happens on any other client if I bind it to the master instead of the slave, i.e. you can login, it just takes a long time. I've confirmed that both machines are running ypserv, ypbind, rpc.statd, and the server is also running rpc.ypxfrd. Any suggestions?

help with building gd-1.8.4--- build is failing!
Hello, I'm trying to build gd-1.8.4 and it is failing fairly quickly. I'm hoping someone could enlighten me as to why. I am using portinstall to install it, but get the same result if i just use make in /usr/ports/graphics/gd. here is the output of `portversion`, followed by output of `portinstall -DN gd` I apologize for the length of this question but i'd rather err on the side of too much information. I've already tried cvsup'ing my ports collection and tried grabbing the distfiles from ftp.freebsd.org instead of letting it grab from boutell.com when i look in the workdir for gd, gd.h is not there, but gd.h.orig.

Occasional panics under heavy disk load - dmesg/stack traces
G'day everyone, I sent this a couple of days ago, but someone hijacked the thread so I have sent it again. I've added my most recent crash dump, this time it occurred during a rm -rf * in /usr/src. I'm starting to despair here, is it hardware/software or what? ==Previous message== Back in September I sent a message to hackers asking what people thought of the kernel panics I had started to get from around April on a somewhat random basis when my machine was under heavy disk load (buildworld, make clean of ports etc). It doesn't panic every time I hammer the disk, but only sometimes. This machine has tracked stable for over two years now. Its a fairly vanilla box from Gateway. I was lead towards a couple of PR's, both are still open. Can anyone tell me if this hardware or a real bug? Is there anything else I could supply which would help in understanding the problem? take a look at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=42277 and http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=42235 One of the PR's pointed towards softupdates as a potential cause. I turned it off on /usr and have continued to get panics. Can anyone give me any clue as to what might be happening? Software / hardware / anything? I enclose the (hopefully relevant) dmesg output and two kernel stack traces, both from the last few days. Last built world on Nov 12th. I've had four or five crashes since then. Cheers, Greg === .

CVS Logging
Hi all, Does anyone know if there is a way to have CVS log all activity to a log file. Basically, I'd like a log of all checkouts, updates, imports and commits. I've already got it logging imports commits, but I can't work out how to log the other stuff. TIA, -- - Wayne Pascoe I have a very firm grasp on reality. I can reach out and strangle it any time!

Re: hosting more than one website on a cable connection (DHCP)... and using BIND
you can create a dynamic hostname with dyndns.org and update it with ddclient, and create a CNAME entry for your machine and alias it to the dyndns hostname at your DNS. (i have home.andrewng.com to point to my machine behind a cable modem with a dynamic IP address) you can just set the DNS to that dynamic hostname at the registrar. you need one more DNS though, dyndns has a DNS hosting service, but I'm not sure if that is free... this takes care of the having your own domains part... to resolve to different machine, I think you can look into NAT and BIND, I have not done that myself, but I'll probably be look into doing that soon. right now I'm simply running sshd at a different port and have my firewall forward it to the other machine... :) /ayn On 0, Bsd Neophyte [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Alright, this is what I want to do... I have a cable connection that uses DHCP, giving me a lease for about 2 minutes. Usually the address stays the same, but at times it does change. I want to host two domain names to start. I also would like to have the possiblity to host more. I will have only one changing IP. I also want to have subdomains. I want each system at home to have a subdomain based on either one of the two domain's I'll have established. So if I have blah.com as my primary domain, I want to be able to ssh to yadda.blah.com from any other location. If I want to ssh to yawn.blah.com from any other location, it should be able to connect to that system, eventhough they are both sharing 1 ip address through Natting. I've been told I can use these free third party domain name servers. I've also been told that you need to keep a record with at least 2 domain name servers when hosting a domain name. While, I can do this, I'd like to host at least one DNS at home. Now, I'm completely confused if this can be done and if it can, then how to do it. The FreeBSD handbook seems pretty straight-forward in setting up BIND. However, I don't know how to distinguish more than one domain name when using only one IP address. Also, is it possible for the home DNS and the third party DNS's to work in tandem? Does any of this make sense? __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.

Dual 3c595s and a Compaq Netflex (Thunderlan) in a machine
Hey all, I'm building a Snort box and want to have two ip-less nics for detecting and one with IP for management. Using the hardware I've got (since we're in a budget crunch), I've scavenged together a Compaq Deskpro 4000, which has a built-in 10/100 NIC, to be used for management and a couple of old spare 3c595s we've got. The 595s are calling for the vx kernel driver, and I was wondering why my generic kernel only loaded one of them, so I explicitly stated, in the kernel config, to load two, vx0 and vx1. Now they both appear, but they don't actually work. I can ifconfig them up, but what happens is that one doesn't respond at all (no light on the hub), while the other immediately kills the hub by flooding it - the link light comes on, but so does the collision light, permanently, and my other workstation loses outside connection. I'm working with 4.6.2. Anyone got suggestions?

memory disks in 4.5-stable
I want to create a number of small RAM disks on some webservers so they can serve high traffic content directly off of RAMdisks instead of conventional disks or NFS. I first tested this out on my desktop machine 4-7 stable and everything worked just fine. I made 3 10Mb RAMdisks and mounted then just as planned. But once I hopped onto the production servers (4.5-Stable from eb 26, 2002 I believe) I seemed to be limited to using only one md device. Only md0 is reconized as valid, any device number above that fails to be recognized as a configured device. MAKEDEV will make the devices just fine, but disklabel refuses to deal with them. It fails like so: image1# cd /dev image1# ./MAKEDEV md1 image1# disklabel -r -w md1 auto disklabel: /dev/md1c: Device not configured /dev/md1c and all the associated devices seem to be present, but disklabel refuses to recogize them. Again, this worked fine on my 4.7 desktop, but following the same procedure on the servers at our data center, it fails every time. I thought that perhaps adding a number after md in the kernel would help so I did this and recompiled: pseudo-device md 3 # Memory disks But that had no effect at all. If this is a bug, I can not find reference to it. Is it a bug that I can patch? Is there a work around I can preform? I am reluctant to upgrade the servers unless I have to, as they are in production. Anyone have any suggestions or advice? Please cc: responces to me, as I am not a regular subscriber. - Marius M.

Weird NIS master problem
(Sorry if this gets double-posted, I don't think I sent it correctly the first time) I have two FBSD NIS machines, the master is running 4.6 and the slave is at 4.7. The slave works properly, it's the master that is acting strangely. The master is also serving as a router with 2 nic cards, and is running ntpd. It processes NIS stuff, just *really* slowly. It is not doing firewall stuff (yet). For example, running 'truss id dsilver' it stalls right after running 'gettimeofday' but eventually answers back properly. The same behavior happens on any other client if I bind it to the master instead of the slave, i.e. you can login, it just takes a long time. I've confirmed that both machines are running ypserv, ypbind, rpc.statd, and the server is also running rpc.ypxfrd. Any suggestions?

Ontrack and track boundaries
Hello all! I just recently wiped out my FreeBSD system for reasons I won't get into here and began installing a fresh copy. Anyway, my computer requires the Ontrack Dynamic Drive Overlay because of a BIOS limit of 33Gig. I have installed the DDO software just like I did before but when I go to install FreeBSD, FreeBSD complains. Fdisk shows that the drives offset starts at -63 and when I try and create a partition it complanes about incorrect track boundaries. Here is what I do in order to install BSD: 1. Boot up off Ontrack DDO floppy 2. Tell drive to report as 33G instead of 80G and restart 3. Format drive using Ontrack as fat32 inorder to install software 4. Boot up with FreeBSD to try and partition 5. Error! A side note is that if I don't format the drive as fat32 first DDO doesn't installed and BSD only sees 33G. Also my drive is an IBM Deskstar80GXP I believe. I know it works since I had it running before.

You can put it in the desired user's crontab like this: @reboot /path/to/startup-command My *guess* is that you would always want the server to start as the *same* user, if you want it to start at boot. In that case, it's quite simple, at least in theory (meaning, I haven't done this). If that is the only user who will *ever* want to own the server, then just make that user the owner of vnc and set the suid bit. If you want to keep the default vnc server with the usual owner (root?), then just create a hardlink used for the startup command and suid *that* as above. The suid bit is stored in the inode, not in the directory-entry of a hardlink. If you suid the hardlink you also suid the original. The same goes for ownership. | | Bri | | On Thu, 12 Dec 2002, Daniel HARTMANN wrote: | Bonjour, | | J'utilise vnc vers ma machine Freebsd. | | Mais comment d?marrer vncserver automatiquement au boot sans | taper la commande ?? | | Merci | | | | | | Dany_H ;-) | | To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] | with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message -- Brian, the man from Babble-On . . . .

automatin the creation/destruction of email lists
ok, this one is tough. I am writing 4 scripts- 2 sdevlope webforms, and are done, no problem. The other two respectively create or destroy email lists. Or at least that's the goal. Sendmail is VERY persnickity about permissions and ownerships for the aliases files- at least. I have edited sendmail.cf so it compiles from a second aliases file, aliases.tinylist, which is in /etc/mail, and it reads the file fine. Note the webscript runs by apache (as nobody) cannot write to the /mail dir; it bombs at this point. If I set the dir so other identities can write to it, sendmail get's VERY upset when I issue the newaliases command. so either it accepts the file, but I cannot write to it, or I cannot write to it, but it accepts the file. sigh... What's a fellow to do?

I'm running all FreeBSD 4.6.2 and 4.7 machines and have no internal namerserver of anytype. do I need to create an internal nameserver for myself to type in my domain name and come up with my webpage? I have a gateway and the gateway forwards any requests for port 80 to the webserver. Your problem is NAT related. Usually, you can't access your internal web server from internal network via external IP. It confuses natd. I heard of some implementations, but it would be simplier to configure DNS to point to internal IP, I think.

Re: no internal access to webpage
Hi Dave, The reason you have access to your webserver from external sites is somewhat the reason why you don't have internal access (by name) to your webserver. The gateway passes requests to port 80 it receives from its *external* interface to port 80 on your webserver. From an internal host, attempts to access the website hits your gateway, on its *internal* interface, and is passed to the Internet via the external interface. The translation of the returning request by the external interface back in doesn't work with the current set up of natd. Running a local nameserver that points to the local address of the website would probably work.., ONLY if its shielded from the Internet though. If not, you'd end up with your DNS pointing to a website that's bound to a RFC 1918 (private) address - not good. Hope this helps.
