newbie mail help
I've been installing FreeBSD on my home desktop. A little each day I spend configuring. I've worked out most things with books and man pages. I am connected to the internet by cable modem. Links worked perfectly right away. Where I am failing is setting up my email. I am not trying to be a mail server, just get and send mail through my ISP. The documentation seems to be geared to mail servers. This is really confusing me. Can someone point me in the right direction for help on email? Just a nudge in the right direction would be most helpful. I apologize for posting with OE. Thanks!

5.0-RC3, /etc/pccard_ether incompatible change.
Hello,
A snippet from my /etc/rc.conf:
pccard_enable=YES
ifconfig_wi0=inet 10.0.0.2
ifconfig_ed1=dhcp
On 4.5-RC3 it works as I expected, each interface will get it's own
value for ifconfig command.
On 5.0-RC3, however, this does not happen.
/etc/pccard_ether has been changed this way:
case ${pccard_ifconfig} in
[Nn][Oo] | '')
+ expr : .*${interface} /dev/null || exit 0
;;
*)
# Backward compatible
eval ifconfig_${interface}=\${pccard_ifconfig}
;;
esac
Default value of ${pccard_ifconfig} is NO, so the script exits too
early now. If I set this varibale, I will get that value for each and
every interface. Right?
I would suggest something like this (pseudo code):
case ${pccard_ifconfig} in
[Nn][Oo] | '')
expr : .*${interface} /dev/null || exit 0
;;
*)
# Backward compatible
+ eval ifconfig_${interface}=\$pccard_ifconfig_${interface}
;;
esac
Am I abusing the featute? What is a correct way to deal with this
effect? For a time being I have commented out that line and it works
OK for me.
TIA

Can someone point me in the right direction for help on email? Just a nudge in the right direction would be most helpful. You're right - most of the documentation is geared towards setting up a server. That's because that's the difficult part, and setting up as just a client depends on which of the many clients you've chosen. Basically, what you need to do is choose a client, and then follow the directions on configuring it. That should do the trick. If you like OE, then possibly you want to use Netscape Communicator or Mozilla as a client. Install those from the ports, then use the preferences menus to enter your ISP's host names for the SMTP and POP servers. If you want a command-line client, mutt and pine are popular and available in the ports. There are also other GUI clients available in the ports; look in /usr/ports/mail to see what's there. Finally, I use VM, which is a mail program that runs inside of Emacs. If you use emacs, you might want to give it a look. I apologize for posting with OE. No need to apologies - the mail came through nicely formatted, as plain text only. That's all we ask for. mike -- Mike Meyer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.mired.org/consulting.html Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.

I have a QDI Qudoz 7x board that has VIA KT400 chipset on it(vt8377 and vt8235). IDE seams to be supported but what about the vt8233 which is also on my board. I would appreciate if any body could give me some pointers on how FreeBSD and KT400 m. boards work together. P.S. Pleas CC me.

Access to internal systems
Hi - Ive got a number of windows machines running behind a Freebsd gateway to the Internet. The gateway is accessible via an entry at Dyndns.org: bstar.ath.cx. What I'd like to do is be able to get to the internal machine (named winmachine1) from the Internet using a construct such as: winmachine.bstar.ath.cx. I currently run no name server. Can it be done? Do I need to run my own name server? Is there a howto? Any advice? Thanks Gene To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Yes and no. Do I need to run my own name server? You don't need to, but it generally makes things easier (as you have direct control over things) Any advice? You probably have ipfw running on your firewall. You can use ipfw's port forwarding feature to allow certain ports to appear to be on bstar.ath.cx, while they are actually connecting to winmachine1. You simply make a DNS entry that says that winmachine.bstar.ath.cs is the same as bstar.ath.cs That's the 'yes' part of the answer above. The no part is that you can't use this method to forward ALL ports. If you want to have ports open on bstar.ath.cs as well, they won't be available on winmachine.bstar.ath.cx. To (hopefully) make it a little clearer: If you want to run a webserver from winmachine.bstar.ath.cx, and that's it, and bstar.ath.cx doesn't run a webserver, you simply forward port 80 from bstar.ath.cx to your internal machine. If you want to run a webserver on both bstar.ath.cx and the windows machine you either: a) can't do it b) have to move one of the webservers to a nonstandard (unused) port - such as 8080 Read the man pages for ipfw, and search the net for ipfw port forwarding. I'm sure you find a lot more details. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

And you are correct, I want to use similar ports on multiple machines. For the time being, Xinetd's ability to translate port numbers to another machine (ie. bstar port 58 forwards to winmachine as port 80, leaving port 80 free for bstar) works, but will eventually become amazingly cumbersome. I own a domain name and Dyndns will act as domain name servers. Maybe that's the way to go.

Let me know what's to be done, or if its safe to change the permissions for myself without breaking other stuff. Everything looks okay. Assuming you're doing this as root, the problem must be some kind of flag set on the file. Use 'ls -ol' to display the flags, and if one is set, clear it with chflags(1). I didn't (never had to) run the make clean in /usr/ports as root. Here's what ls -lo returns for that port: /usr/ports/net/bind9-dlz $ ls -lo total 17 -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel - 6551 Jan 16 16:40 Makefile -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel - 71 Jan 17 20:11 Makefile.inc -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel - 117 Nov 17 21:43 distinfo drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel - 512 Jan 17 19:29 files -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel - 55 Aug 30 16:53 pkg-comment -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel - 236 Aug 30 16:53 pkg-descr -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel - 4990 Aug 30 16:53 pkg-plist /usr/ports/net/bind9-dlz $ Nothing appears strange here to me. What could be wrong? The directory is owned by root, and is not group- or world-writeable, so no other user can delete files from it. Depending on the umask you use for root when *building* ports, you may not need to be root to clean up the work directories, but this 'Makefile.inc' is in a directory that requires root privileges to modify.

How to read core dump
Hello, I am attempting to run MySQL Control Center (also known as MySQLCC) on FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE. FYI, is a platform-independent GUI administration client for the MySQL database server. The binary version I downloaded from MySQL.com is for Linux glibc 2.2. My system is running linux_base-7.1_2. When I execute the mysqlcc command, it immediately dumps core. Curiously, it runs fine on another 4.7-STABLE box similarly configured. After doc perusal and googling, I haven't found out how to read a core dump. I suppose if I knew how to read them I could easily determine where the program died. Is this an accurate statement? Is there another way to find out why a program dumps core? Thanks for your help! -- Regards, Doug To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

The permissions on this file is the same as for all the other components of other ports before this particular port, yet make clean only fails at this same point, ever since I cvsup'd the ports tree a couple of days ago. This isn't a ports file; it's created when you configure the port. You must have done so as root. Remove the file as root and your problem will be solved. I know other tools like portsdb -U make index are (have been) broken for some time now, and I'm hoping that the same way they got broke, will be how the get fixed mysteriously in due course.., Although, I have to admit., portsdb -U has been broken for months now, with no sign of a let up :-( 'make index' works fine for me..I've been using it throughout the 5.0 release cycle. Please double-check you don't have any other additional files or local changes in your ports tree. Kris msg15937/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

Deleted files
I made a boo-boo! Two in fact! :-) In transferring directories from one disk to another using dump | restore I forgot at one point to cd and put a number of directories into the wrong partition. So I deleted the wrong directories using rm -rf directoryname. Unfortunately deleting the wrongly transferred directory home in this way deleted the SOURCE /usr/home as well sob Is there any way at all I can recover the deleted files and subdirectories in the source location? -- Brian --- This message sent through Adam Internet Webmail http://www.adam.com.au To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

RE: cpanel and problems with adduser
Hey! Well I got messed up with cpanel. First when I wanted to deinstall it I asked their tech guy about that. He said to remove some directories and it should be fine. But that's how fine it is. And still It reinstalled itself few times, dunno how. I deleted all files I found and users that it used. But now I need to fix this. Thanks for reply, but after I did man vipw couldn't find that line that you wanted me to find. I am running FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE. So I got short manual about that command...(I guess you don't want me to paste it hare).. so I wasn't able to do that. Is there some config file that I could change that?

Re: emacs backup filename
Go to the info system's concept index and look for backup. Select and read. Next time, try using info first. If you can't find what you need in a menu or index, search through the info files using the s (not C-s) key while in info.
