help needed!
Hello, gentlemen! Our company has an email internet server working under FreeBSD. We use it for mail and as a internet gate, not for web-hosting. We have no specialists in UNIX systems, but we have a great need of measuring IP-traffic via the server.

In my experience SCSI tape drives require no special configuration of FreeBSD. You just need to make sure that the driver for your SCSI card is loaded (included in the kernel). If the adapter is found by FreeBSD but the tape drive is not, then maybe you have problems with the SCSI bus (conflicting IDs, missing termination, bad cable etc). -- Toomas Aas | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.raad.tartu.ee/~toomas/ * If you think education's expensive, try ignorance.

Fixing degraded atacontrol based software RAID?
Hello, I have a machine running atacontrol based software RAID in which one of the disks recently failed (Maxtor, not IBM for those who want to know). Now I'm wondering how I should go about fixing this. atacontrol seems to lack a command to fix broken software only arrays. I suppose I could use dd -if workingdisk -of newdisk but atacontrol seems to block the disks during multi user (and since the box has got work to do, I can't just take it down for a few hours). Other option would be to just install a hardware RAID controller I suppose. I still have a 3ware one laying around somewhere (this one features background rebuilding, albeit very slowly) but I'd be interested to hear whether I can do background rebuilding triggered from atacontrol with Highpoint 370 or Promise Fasttrak controllers. Any comments would greatly be appreciated (as would be CCs to myself as the traffic on this list makes it sometimes hard to find the answers ;-).

Installing customized mod_php4 port
Hi, I would like to know what the preferred way is for installing the mod_php4 port (4.2.3) with your own customized options enabled. This is on FreeBSD 4.7, in conjunction with apache+mod_ssl-1.3.27+2.8.12. I see the Makefile's CONFIGURE_ARGS specifically states --without-gd and --without-mysql. Do I need to change this if I want those options enabled? The Makefile also mentions PHP4_OPTIONS. Is this something I can use to enable certain extra options (eg. IMAP support)? Does the FreeBSD ports have something like flavors, as in OpenBSD? The options I would like to enable are: gdbm, imap, imap-ssl, mhash, mm, recode, pdflib, gd, jpeg, png, tiff, mcrypt, curl, mysql, postgresql.

notify-source 81.2.69.218 port 53;
if you have off-site secondaries. Check that the syntax is correct
for Bind8 --- I just copied that out of my Bind9 config.
But my log is filled with entries like these:

Accept UDP 10.0.0.2:53 15.251.160.31:32852 out via rl0
Which seems to suggest that for outgoing UDP a random high port is being
used. :( And I do not understand why. :(
I assume that 10.0.0.2 is the IP number of your DNS machine. Then it
would appear to be doing exactly what it's been told to. All the
replies it sends have the source IP address of the machine and the
*source* port 53. Your nameserver is either responding to packets
from a resolver out on the internet somewhere, or querying a remote
server for DNS data on your behalf. In the second case, the
destination port must be 53 in order to contact a nameserver, but the
source port could be anything, and it's usual to use an arbitrary
high-numbered port.
Incoming packaets in the first case will have whatever source port the
remote machine felt like using, which is outside the scope of what you
can control. Your machine has to respond back to the given IP and
port number, or the other end won't be able to connect the reply it
receives with the query it sent out.
I have only four ipfw rules defined regarding DNS:
${fwcmd} add 3 allow tcp from any to any 53 out via ${outside}
${fwcmd} add 4 allow udp from any to any 53 out via ${outside}
${fwcmd} add 5 allow tcp from any 53 to any in via ${outside}
${fwcmd} add 6 allow udp from any 53 to any in via ${outside}
Hmmm... I use dynamic rules to achieve the same goal:
add 1000 allow tcp from any to 81.2.69.218 22,25,53 setup keep-state in recv de0
add 1600 allow udp from 81.2.69.218 to any 53 keep-state out xmit de0
add 1700 allow udp from any to 81.2.69.218 53 keep-state in recv de0
So 1600 matches the first packet when I try and look something up
remotely, and the generated dynamic rule permits the response to come
back in only from the machine I queried. Similarly 1700 lets remote
systems query me and the generated rule permits the response back out.
Rule 1000 permits TCP connections into my DNS (ie. generally my
secondaries doing an AXFR when my zone data gets updated) amongst
other services, and I have a generic rule that lets me do any outward
going tcp connection I want.
This works very well for a lightly loaded server --- it even copes
with the sudden flood of DNS traffic when I send messages to the
thousands of recipients on this list. If your DNS traffic is
considerably higher than mine, then you might prefer to use static
rules, but you'll have to add two extra rules corresponding to the
packets in reply to queries:
add 1600 allow udp from 81.2.69.218 to any 53 out xmit de0
add 1650 allow udp from any 53 to 81.2.69.218 in recv de0
add 1700 allow udp from any to 81.2.69.218 53 in recv de0
add 1750 allow udp from 81.2.69.218 53 to any out xmit de0
Obviously, this opens you up to rather more malicious traffic than the
stateful version, but that's a judgement you'll have to make.
TCP connections can be handled similarly, taking account of the
'setup' vs 'established' state change.
Cheers,
Matthew

Re: help needed!
We have no specialists in UNIX systems, but we have a great need of measuring IP-traffic via the server. Can we use any standard commands for this purpose or do we need to get a special program for it? MRTG is probably what you're looking for: it produces graphs, updated every five minutes by default, that show the level of traffic going in and out of your server. It's more for seeing how traffic has been over time (it keeps statistics for a year), rather than seeing what's happening right this very second. (If right-this-moment information is what you're after, ask about trafshow.) It's in ports, so to install it you could either fetch it precompiled: # pkg_add -r mrtg or compile it yourself if you have the ports tree installed: # cd /usr/ports/net/mrtg make install distclean (To see if you have the ports tree installed, do ls /usr/ports; if you see lots of directories, you've got it. The first method is probably easier... ) MRTG uses SNMP to get its traffic numbers, and the graphs it generates are usually displayed via web pages -- so in addition to MRTG itself, you'd usually need a web server like Apache, and an SNMP daemon like Net-SNMP or UCD-SNMP. You can find more info on MRTG and some examples of how to use it at the website: http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/ Hope this helps!

You can use the ipfw logging capability to log traffic and something along the lines of a perl script to compile it into whatever form or statistics you need. If you're using Squid or any other cache, there is a lot of information logged, and programs such as Calamaris to analyze it. Most mail programs will record transaction data as well, although I don't know of any analyzers, there must be something available!

are you setting up a cache, or an authoritative server?
IOW, do you want Bind to resolve names for clients (they'll will
have it in /etc/resolv.conf and equivalents), or do you want it to
publish names?
You are doing both, but if you want to have this Bind resolving
names for clients (external cache), being authoritative for

more named questions . . .
I've been working on setting up named in a sandbox. I got some helpful hints here where I couldn't quite understand the handbook (yes, I did read it, that doesn't necessarily mean I understood it :). Anyway, I followed the handbook steps for sandboxing named exactly - meaning I didn't even retype the commands, but copied them by mouse from the handbook page. This part is giving me some trouble: # Symlink /var/run/ndc to /etc/namedb/var/run/ndc: # ln -sf /etc/namedb/var/run/ndc /var/run/ndc Note: This simply avoids having to specify the -c option to ndc(8) every time you run it. Since the contents of /var/run are deleted on boot, if this is something that you find useful you may wish to add this command to root's crontab, making use of the @reboot option. See crontab(5) for more information regarding this. What are the chances this is wrong? After completing the section, I typed 'ndc start' at the root prompt, and got the following: # ndc start ndc: error: name server has not started (yet?) So I tried to stop it: # ndc stop ndc: error: ctl_client: evConnect(fd 3): No such file or directory ndc: error: cannot connect to command channel (/var/run/ndc) And this didn't even stop named. Something had to be wrong. I did a little more reading, and it looked to me like that command should have been the other way around. So I tried the following: # rm /var/run/ndc # ln -s /var/run/ndc /etc/namedb/var/run/ndc # ndc start new pid is 42557 then, just to be sure: # ndc stop and named did quit. Did I stumble on a typo in the handbook? And if so, did I also stumble on the CORRECT way to do it? And, finally, once I got named started in this manner, I got the following message in the /var/log/messages: Jan 28 10:41:04 keyslapper named[42779]: check_hints: A records for J.ROOT-SERVERS.NET class 1 do not match hint records Doing a lookup, host gave 192.58.128.30 as the correct IP, but named.root had 198.41.0.10. When I changed named.root and restarted named, the message went away. Anyone else ever have this kind of problem?

You are absolutely right. :) I guess I read it wrong, in my panic (kernel is not the only one prone to panic attacks). Problem is, an ISP in Australia cannot resolve me; and, as I wrote the admin, he responded: Our name servers are configured to send queries with a source port of 53 .. but when we do so, you respond from a high port? ... I suspect that bind is throwing away your replies because they don't match the expected response ip/port combination. I tried to resolve my domain name via their name server (ns1.optusnet.com.au = 203.2.75.2), and, indeed, that fails. He gave me the following log entries, though: --[ with src port = 53 ] 15:33:03.472128 210.49.20.142.domain 194.109.160.70.domain: [udp sum ok] 6636 A? asarian-host.net.

I have no idea how this is possible. :( Is your nameserver perhaps behind a NAT gateway? Does this option from the natd(8) man page seem relevant to you? -same_ports | -m Try to keep the same port number when altering outgoing pack- ets. With this option, protocols such as RPC will have a better chance of working. If it is not possible to maintain the port number, it will be silently changed as per normal. I've seen a similar effect with NTP passing through a NAT'ing firewall before now. NTP expects both source and destination ports to be 123, and it got perplexed by packets sent to port 123 apparently from some high numbered port. The -same_ports option will mostly work, but the only completely effective answer is to provide nameservice from an internet registered address. As it seems that ns1.asarian-host.net and ns2.asarian-host.net are both the same machine (or at least, are sharing the same IP address) which is therefore your one and only registered IP number and probably your NAT gateway, I think your best bet is to find someone on a different part of the net to 2ary for you. If your ISP won't do it or is too expensive, look at eg. http://www.gradwell.com/services/sec_dns.cfm?cfid=258474cftoken=21163252 (Which, I happen to know, is hosted on FreeBSD boxes) You can always set up your machine as domain master (so you control the content), but register the domain using a couple of well connected secondary NS's (which will get all the traffic).

FreeBSD 5.0 on Dell Inspiron 2650
Hello, I'm trying to put 5.0-RELEASE on my new laptop, and I found a good guide for doing so with 4.x-- basically, you have to escape the autoboot process, type boot -c, enter eisa 0 at the config prompt, and then quit to start the boot. But it seems like 5.0 does not support boot -c (just ignores it entirely). I'm using the disc 1 .iso (it mentions mini-inst during the pre-boot stages). Can anybody tell me what I'm doing wrong, or what the replacement for boot -c is?

With this option, protocols such as RPC will have a better chance of working. If it is not possible to maintain the port number, it will be silently changed as per normal. Matthew, you're a genius!! :) Although I do not have the NAT daemon running, I suddenly realized my hardware router does NAT too. You were so right! Even though the hardware NAT has no redirection defined for outgoing ports, this is, in fact, exactly what happened, just as you predicted. :) I disabled it altogether (I just used it for incoming port-redirection to several machines on my LAN, but I now solved that otherwise), and lo and behold, all problems are immediately gone and everything resolves again. :)) I'm impressed!

IP Change == Problems
Hello, I recently changed my ISP - DSL provider, a new static IP, and now having problems ssh'ing in, none before. My config == ISP[DSL] | Modem | Router/Gateway | == HubLAN machine(1) |LAN machine(2) | |LAN machine(n) The LAN side machines are configured w/ NAT and the mapping are unchanged, using 192.168.x.n etc. The WAN side is configured correctly, I think. I can access the internet from the LAN, SSH Telnet. However I cannot telnet or SSH into the LAN and the Port mappings are the same as before??? The only change has been to the Gateway configuration, IP #, DNS subnetmask. I am using the SMC barricade router,SMC7004ABR, w/ an Admin GUI, according to the GUI the IP has been updated. I can ping the gateway, it is seen by nslookup, there is no hostname assigned so there should be no resolver issues I think ftp or ssh to the IP followed by the :assigned public port == No address associated with hostname I 've made the requisite changes to the defaultrouter=nnn.xxx.yy.zz in the /etc/rc.conf file inserting the gateway IP LAN address here.

Re: is our printf(1) behavior correct w.r.t \0 escapes?
On 28-Jan-2003 John Reynolds~ wrote: We need to echo a string *and* a NUL character (\0) into a stream so that a program that delimits its input by \0 characters will do the right thing. He had been doing this via printf(1) like so: % printf some string\0 | some_process however, it never worked under FreeBSD. Upon further inspection, our printf(1) does not work like the GNU one with the above string. Consider this from a linux box: linux [~]374% printf foo\0bar\0 | od -c 000 f o o \0 b a r \0 010 Now the same command from a FreeBSD (4.7-STABLE) box: freebsd [~]76% printf foo\0bar\0 | od -c 000f o o 003 Works fine under -current: $ printf foo\0bar\0 | od -c 000f o o \0 b a r \0 After checking the man pages, I also used a complete octal constant but that doesn't work either: linux [~]376% printf foo\ | od -c 000 f o o \0 004 freebsd [~]77% printf foo\ | od -c 000f o o 003 This also works under -current: $ printf foo\ | od -c 000f o o \0 004 I checked our implementation and it seems wrong. The first step done in the source code is to interpolate all escape sequences. However, when it does this and the octal number happens to be 0, this fact is not captured later on and that 0 becomes the NULL terminator for the string and nothing else is printed after it. linux [~]379% printf foo\0%d 4 | od -c 000 f o o \0 4 005 freebsd [~]78% printf foo\0%d 4 | od -c printf: missing format character 000f o o 003 This also works under -current: $ printf foo\0%d 4 | od -c 000f o o \0 4 005 This behavior has been checked on HP-UX and Solaris and those two systems are identical to the Linux one. It seems to me that our printf(1)'s behavior is incorrect. Comments? It may very well be that printf (or libc?) has a bug under -stable.

It seems that sendmail is no longer setuid root. (I have 4.7 on one box where it's not setuid and 4.2 stable on another box where it is). When I run mailq from my 4.7 box, I get a permission denied error when run as a normal user. Is this now the expected behavior?

Let's see if I remember the details on this. I believe this happens when a file is deleted, but another program still holds a filehandle? to it. Thus, if you delete Apache's log file (for example) but don't restart Apache, the space the logfile is using isn't truely freed. (This is why newsyslog.conf has a column for the PID of a process to restart). So ... if you know which process had the files open, restart it (probably by sending it a -HUP).

In order to get started I did something like this: 1) I created a 'cvsuser' as you did, a real user with a real $HOME directory. 2) I gave that user a 'dumb' password. 3) I set my pserver to use the same password authorization that the host did (PAM/MD5 in this case). 4) I copied the system's password hash for that user into the right place in their line of the CVS 'passwd' file. (DON'T DO THIS FOR A REAL USER WITH A SIGNIFICANT PASSWORD!!) 5) I was then able to 'cvs ... login' as 'cvsuser' using the 'dumb' password. 6) I then gave all my real CVS users the same hash in their respective lines in the CVS 'passwd' file, so they wouldn't compromise their regular passwords by using them for CVS access. 7) When I had it working I dropped those passwords back to NULL entries by deleting the hash strings, as our access control was independent of CVS (and it had better be for you, too!). IIRC, even if you have a NULL password entry for that user, they have to enter _something_ at the prompt. I had some 'turnkey' build scripts and those used the dummy user's username as the password. It was accepted even though the $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/passwd entry was NULL. I found some examples either in the distribution version of the file, or in the 'Cederqvist' document's description of 'Administrative Files'. They weren't exactly what I needed, but they got me started. If that doesn't help, I'll go poke around in the setup and see what I _really_ did.

Re: IMAPd
It seems like my IMAPd is loaded, but not correctly. How can I tell IMAPd to use my authentication information? And how should I configure IMAPd? My problem is that when I try to log in to my accounts from squirrelmail it says their are not availible. Althought I used the right password and username. My guess is either your inetd.conf file or your Squirrel Mail configuration are broken. Here are both for UW Imap. It might be a long shot, but after upgrading to latest version of UW Imap I couldn't get it working either. Turned out to be a feature with the latest version that defaults to only offering secure connections. So no port 143... I tried for a long time to pass the correct variable when building to make it offer both non secure and secure connections, but i appear to be a moron so I ended up reverting to my previous version and voila, it works again. Can't remember the version numbers right now, but the latest port build is the secure-only as default version. If anyone can tell me how to pass the correct variable when building (ie. not only the variable, but how to pass it along to make) I'd be very grateful. - Aslak To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

PPP with PPPoE stalls
Hi, I have a problem with userland PPP that has persisted ever since 4.5 (currently using 4.6 and the problem is still there). I am on DSL and therefore connecting through the tun0 device and PPPoE. My problem is, that after some (varying) time, the connection just stalls. According to PPP's log, packets are still being sent out, but there is absolutely *no* traffic coming in. There is nothing in the log (even when set to log all) that would hint at what is going wrong, it just suddenly stops receiving any packets at all. When I connect to the diagnostic socket, the prompt is PPP. If i issue the diconnect command, it will change to PPp and hang there for a long time (up to a minute) and finally disconnect and show ppp. If I type connect, it will take another long time (up to a few minutes) until it finally connects and shows PPP. While surfing the net, this usually does not happen. But if I start a big download (FreeBSD 5.0 ISO, for example) or run a program that quickly opens many sockets (file sharing apps), the connection will stall quickly (after a few megabytes of transfer) and once it has stalled, and I fix it by disconnecting and reconnecting, it will get worse and worse, stalling ever more often until I let it sit diconnected for a few hours. The FreeBSD box is running as a server for my home network (NAT and DNS). I have tested my DSL modem with a Windows box and it perfectly works, no matter what I do. So, it must be something in FreeBSD. Some socket / connection limit in the kernel or PPP I'm hitting, maybe? If anybody has an idea, I would be very gald to get some help with this, it has been bothering me for almost a year now.

FreeBSD 5.0 woes
I installed FreeBSD 5.0 this weekend at home and removed it five hours laters. Two problems made this use of this OS prohibitive for me, although I was hoping to stop using Debian and start using FreeBSD. 1) Awful performance on the sound subsystem under heavy load. If I copy large files, or start the X-Window while playing an MP3, it would simply stop playing while the disk is being accessed. 2) (the most important) I have a second HD with all my data in ext3. Although I could remove the journal and use it as a ext2, it simply didn't work as expected and eventually it became corrupted and the ext2utils could'nt repair it. When I installed Debian again, it spent more then 40 min fsck the disk. 3) Really degraded performance on X-Window and Galeon. their performance under Debian (xfree 4.1) is MUCH more smoother and even perceivably faster! Can anybody here confirm if these are common problems, and if there are any settings I might tune for their removal?

Could be more or less, depending on your needs. 21600 seconds is six hours. 2. Bind9 wants to starts rndc, which will probably not work. It is a program to talk with Bind9.

Re: FreeBSD 5.0 woes
Juless Grosse wrote: I installed FreeBSD 5.0 this weekend at home and removed it five hours laters. Two problems made this use of this OS prohibitive for me, although I was hoping to stop using Debian and start using FreeBSD. 1) Awful performance on the sound subsystem under heavy load. If I copy large files, or start the X-Window while playing an MP3, it would simply stop playing while the disk is being accessed. 2) (the most important) I have a second HD with all my data in ext3. Although I could remove the journal and use it as a ext2, it simply didn't work as expected and eventually it became corrupted and the ext2utils could'nt repair it. When I installed Debian again, it spent more then 40 min fsck the disk. 3) Really degraded performance on X-Window and Galeon. their performance under Debian (xfree 4.1) is MUCH more smoother and even perceivably faster! Can anybody here confirm if these are common problems, and if there are any settings I might tune for their removal? I really wish I could change to FreeBSD. Did you read the Early Adopters Guide? FreeBSD 5.0 is still pretty new. If you're interested in a tried true version of FreeBSD, d/l and install 4.7. The 4.x branch is still under active development and there will be more releases along the 4.x line until the 5.x line works out enough of the problems for it to be as reliable as 4.x has become. Most of the problems I've seen people reporting about 5.x fall into the performance category. I think there's still a lot of debugging code in 5.0, and that slows performance a lot. I've noticed some performance issues on my 5.0 test box, although none have been as severe as you describe. If you feel like contributing, the freebsd-current mailing list might be very interested in your performance report. They've been working pretty hard to get 5.0 running well, and feedback is always helpful. -- 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
how to kill a while loop...
Hi, I ran a command like: while `some command` ; do something ; done and I missed the PID output when I backgrounded it. Now I want to kill this while process, but I cannot find it anymore. I tried to ps auxw | grep while, and grep do and so on, but I cannot find the process to kill it. How can I do that ? thanks!

dhclient scwewiness
Ok, got a new cable modem. Pretty good so far. Now, I just need to get the DHCP client working. Haven't gotten too lucky with that so far. First, I just put the line ifconfig_xl0=DHCP in rc.conf. That did something. Resolv.conf looked good and the leases file in /var/db looked tremendous. But routing didn't work. Couldn't ping anything: nameservers, the supposed default routers or anything. Then, to get something in the log files, I tried starting the dhclient manually. Now, I see this: mursu dhclient: New Network Number: 213.243.154.0 mursu dhclient: New Broadcast Address: 213.243.155.255 mursu dhclient: New IP Address (xl0): 213.243.155.19 mursu dhclient: New Subnet Mask (xl0): 255.255.254.0 mursu dhclient: New Broadcast Address (xl0):213.243.155.255 mursu dhclient: New Routers: 213.243.154.1 in /var/log/messages. This looks promising. But the routing tables don't. This is what I see with netstat -rn: Internet: DestinationGatewayFlagsRefs Use Netif Expire 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 2 232lo0 127.53.0.1 127.53.0.1 UH 12lo0 213.243.155.19 127.0.0.1 UGHS00lo0 And ifconfig gives: xl0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 options=3rxcsum,txcsum inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 255.255.255.255 ether 00:a0:24:55:02:24 media: Ethernet 10baseT/UTP status: active lo0: flags=8049UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST mtu 16384 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff00 inet 127.53.0.1 netmask 0x If I ping the supposed default router 213.243.155, I see: PING 213.243.155.1 (213.243.155.1): 56 data bytes ping: sendto: No route to host ping: sendto: No route to host And when I ping 213.243.155.19, I see strange things: ... 36 bytes from localhost (127.0.0.1): Redirect Host(New addr: 127.0.0.1) Vr HL TOS Len ID Flg off TTL Pro cks Src Dst 4 5 00 0054 280a 0 04 01 9e97 127.0.0.1 213.243.155.19 36 bytes from localhost (127.0.0.1): Redirect Host(New addr: 127.0.0.1) Vr HL TOS Len ID Flg off TTL Pro cks Src Dst 4 5 00 0054 280a 0 03 01 9f97 127.0.0.1 213.243.155.19 (Looks like the modem is alive) So, the question is: What knob must I turn to get dhclient to set the default route properly?

Re: How to set-up two 'defaultrouter' IPs?
Phillip Smith (mailing list) [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: To create a somewhat redundant network connection, my friend has connected to business level ADSL connections at his home (32 IPs each). So, he has two routers, on two different networks (ATT/UUNET) and what he's doing is multi-homing his NIC cards and via some interesting DNS set-up, theoretically, there is some network redundancy or failover or something. Anyway, here's the question... how would I set-up two 'defaultrouter' IPs in my rc.conf? Is that were I would do such a thing? I'd like to have the same scenario that he's building with a multi-homed NIC and two IPs per VirtualHost directive. I guess there are actually many steps to accomplish this (as I now start to think about it) but I'm wondering how to set-up the networking piece first. Many thanks in advance, Two truly default routes is not really sensical. You generally play games based on source address, TCP port, or something like that, and make sure that they NAT separately. [It has to involve NAT, because for networks that small, you can't get routes distributed widely enough to do true multihoming.] So the answer depends on exactly what hack you want to do.

Brothers keeper
Dear Friend. As you read this, I dont want you to feel sorry for me, because, I believe everyone will die someday. My name is Faisal Ahmed, a merchant in Dubai, in the U.A.E.I have been diagnosed with Esophageal cancer which was discovered very late, due to my laxity in carrying for my health. It has defiled all forms of medicine, and right now I have only about a few months to live, according to medical experts. I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I never really cared for anyone not even myself but my business. Though I am very rich, I was never generous, I was always hostile to people and only focus on my business as that was the only thing I cared for. But now I regret all this as I now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have or make all the money in the world. I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I would live my life a different way from how I have lived it. Now that God has called me, I have willed and given most of my properties and assets to my immediate and extended family members and as well as a few close friends. I want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul and so, I have decided to give alms to charity organizations, as I want this to be one of the last good deeds I do on earth. So far, I have distributed money to some charity organizations in the U.A.E, Algeria and Malaysia. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this my self any more. I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and distribute the money which I have there to charity organization in Bulgaria and Pakistan, they refused and kept the money to themselves. Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be contended with what I have left for them. The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of twenty four million dollars that I have with a security company. I will want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatched it to charity organizations. I have set aside 10% for you for your time and patience.please reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] God be with you.

I'm not quite sure why this is relevant to the actual problem, because it's not really *that* many inodes involved in log files, but then again I'm not sure I completely understand the problem anyway... The problem is that I am running snort and its creating hundreds of entries in /var/log/snort -- one directory for each alert generated by an IP address. then specific info on that alert in a file under each directory. So -- aside from the standard log files, the will be a bazillion files and directories that snort will create.. I know one solution would be to create a separate file system for snort, then mount it at /var/log/snort --- that would likely be the safest. Then if it ever ran out of inodes, /var/log would still function. but then, this is an old box and I don't have another hard drive to throw in it... I think stopping and restarting snort did the trick though. -- David Bear College of Public Programs/ASU Mail Code 0803 To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

I assume that you are talking about the shadowed password file. Nope. CVS doesn't use the system password database in :pserver: mode. For more details, you can always refer to % info '(cvs)' You will have to create the /home/cvsroot/CVSROOT/passwd file yourself. - Giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
php 4.3.0 in ports?
Can we expect to find php 4.3.0 in ports anytime in the near future? Last I heard, they were waiting for the code freeze release to pass, but now that's done... when can we expect an updated php port? -- Ryan C.

postfix on fbsd 5
Hello, Is anyone running postfix on fbsd5? I just installed it as per a howto and i am getting errors from sendmail about invalid flags even though sendmail is disabled. Postfix is also periodically complaining about not being able to access /etc/mail/aliases.db. If anyone is running this can you send me your /etc/mail, /usr/local/etc/postfix, and your rc.conf or some pointers? Thanks. Dave.
