Re: TWM focus
I know this is not the list for that since it is not FreeBSD specific, but I tried the XFree86 list and did not get any answer... Since I'm sure some of you must are using TWM, I give it a shot. How can I make TWM to automatically focus a new window ? Each time I launch an application, a square (empty window) appears under my mouse pointer and I have to click to make the window appear, which is pretty annoying. If you have any idea... Hmm.. let's try man twm Ok... here we go: When new windows are created, twm will honor any size and location information requested by the user (usually through -geometry command line argument or resources for the individual applications). Other- wise, an outline of the window's default size, its titlebar, and lines dividing the window into a 3x3 grid that track the pointer are dis- played. Clicking pointer Button1 will position the window at the cur- rent position and give it the default size. etc.etc.etc. Probably, you could set up those X11 configuration files that tell each application how you want it to display. Alternatively, you could install a more modern window manager and solve all of your problems. _ Tired of spam?

Copying shortcuts in KDE
Hi all. I installed OpenOffice recently and had to install it as root.

Spring cleaning - hardware give-away
I have a bit of functional, but older equipment I hate to throw away, but no longer have the space to keep. If anyone is interested, it's yours for the price of (actual) shipping. Some of this stuff might be able to go on eBay (and may, if no one claims any of it), but I'd rather see if any of my fellow FreeBSD users/fans are interested first. 1) Old vinum disk array. Contains 11 Seagate ST32550WD (HVD differential) SCSI hard disks, a 20MB/s HVD/LVD converter, HVD terminator, and beefy power supply. There is a cut out for a 8 fan, but the fan has long since gone out. However, the mounting hardware for the fan and filter remain. I used this in college to store MP3's, and as far as I know, they are still on the array. Weighs approximately 35 pounds - I can probably be talked into breaking this up if you don't want all of the disks, or are only interested in the SCSI converter, etc. 2) 15 meter (yes, meters) HVD SCSI cable. It's long, folks. Originally I picked this up on eBay so I could keep the above array in a different room (for noise reasons). Somewhere around 5-6 pounds 3) CIT 224 serial terminal. Supports VT52/100/200 terminal modes, and can operate (reliably) up to 9600 baud. 19200 is supported, but has problems. I currently use it as a head for my headless server, but am looking to replace it with an X terminal that draws just as much juice, and has a GUI :) The keyboard is a tad yellow, but otherwise fine. It's previous life was spent monitoring a router, so there may be some faint burn-in. Probably 10-15 pounds with keyboard. 4) Symbios UW HVD SCSI controller. I'm trying to ditch all my HVD SCSI gear, and this is the last controller on hand. Great if you want the above array, but don't have an HVD controller. It is supported by FreeBSD (works great too) 5) Voodoo 2 3D graphics accelerator - with passthrough cable. Still holds up for older games. I may even have the SLI cable somewhere, though I only have the one card. 6) Digi Digiboard PC/4e with DB9 (male) breakout cable. This is the older ISA version of the card. In excellent condition (was bought new), but replaced with PCI card after a server upgrade. This board is well supported by FreeBSD - it formed the communications portion of a home automation controller for some time. No manuals or disks, though - long since lost in moves. 7) Analog Devices SHARC ez-kit lite development kit. Comes with development board, power supply, and CD-ROM with software. I thought I was going to get into programming DSP's, and bought the kit - but later decided home automation was my thing. Works great, has stereo input and output. Great for home-made equalizers or effects boxes, though it is a tad underpowered. 2-3 pounds (mostly the power supply) 8) Motorola MC68ICS05P microcontroller development kit. Comes with lots of interesting stuff, including the dev board. This part is well supported by free tools, including from Motorola. Perfect for a senior design project - unfortunately, I've already got a MSEE, and I don't plan on using this kit anymore. 9) Paralan NARROW HVD-SE SCSI converter. Mounted in a 5.25 chassis, it allows you to attach normal narrow SCSI devices to a HVD SCSI controller (or vice versa). It is presently configured to terminate, but this can be changed with jumpers. More stuff may be dredged up as I finish Spring cleaning, but that's it for now. First come, first served - and remember, all you have to come up with is shipping.

Necessary to Reconfigure New XFree86 If No Changes?
A while ago, I deinstalled XFree86-4.X and installed XFree86 3.X in error. Not sure of the version number of the original 4.X package, but I'm currently running FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE and I installed XFree86-4.X when I installed the operating system. When I discovered the error, I deinstalled the 3.X version (before configuring it) and then installed the most recent XFree86-4.3.0,1. I ran startx (without configuring anything) and everything seemed fine. Today, I installed a new mouse (two button w/wheel) but the wheel wasn't functioning. Someone had earlier requested help with a similar problem and they were advised to edit their /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file. I don't have a XF86Config-4 file, just a XF86Config file. I've made more than my share of bone-head moves with FreeBSD and I'm wondering now if should have configured XFree86-4.3.0,1. Is there an obvious way to tell?

I will ship this with a HeatsinkFan combo (I know the fan works ;) 11) set of 4 SIMM's (old school, 30-pin). Great for soundblasters with the DRAM sockets on them.

I had an old 386 laptop I originally used to write and debug ASM for the M68HC11 in college with. It had this memory card, giving it a total of 6Mb of RAM (whopping plenty for what I used it for). Then, thinking I might find an upgrade, I took the card out - and promptly lost it. Later, I sold the laptop because it didn't have enough ram to boot Linux or FreeBSD. Then, I graduated, and found the card in a bunch of papers in the back of my desk. (sigh Probably too damn old to be of interest, but it was in a 386LTE. Not sure what other models might use it.

Changes to hosts.allow do no affect to inetd daemons some times
Hello ! Sometimes when I change my /etc/hosts.allow and kill and start again inetd, there is no difference. It's like I haven't edited /etc/hosts.allow. If I continue making changes and stop/start inetd there are no affections to the inetd daemons, they allow or deny as /etc/hosts.allow isn't modified since inetd was first started after the system bootstrapped. So what I do now is edit /etc/hosts.allow and then reboot. (Pretty ugly) But I noticed that this happens only to the /etc/inetd.conf daemons. Stand alone daemons like sshd haven't got such problem the changes occur immediately.

Re: Changes to hosts.allow do no affect to inetd daemons some times
Sometimes when I change my /etc/hosts.allow and kill and start again inetd, there is no difference. It's like I haven't edited /etc/hosts.allow. If I continue making changes and stop/start inetd there are no affections to the inetd daemons, they allow or deny as /etc/hosts.allow isn't modified since inetd was first started after the system bootstrapped. My guess would be that some of the servers started with inetd are still up-and running. Remember that tcpwrapper will filter connection initiated through inetd. If, say, your ftp server is runing and handling requests, it will not be affected by your changes in hosts.allow. Your FTP server does not know that tcpwrapper is ther actually. So at same time you kill -HUp inetd, you should also kill all the services started by inetd and that are running. SSH does access tcpwrapper by itself, so it is not affected by this behaviour.

libradius
Hi! According to RFC 2865, mandatory attributes in RADIUS request is User-Name and Service-Type. But in radlib.c exists these lines: } else { /* Make sure the user gave us a password */ if (h-pass_pos == 0 !h-chap_pass) { generr(h, No User or Chap Password attributes given); return -1; } if (h-pass_pos != 0 h-chap_pass) { generr(h, Both User and Chap Password attributes given return -1; } } I need to send a request with no User-Password field, but I can not do it with libradius.

You need some kind of cooperation from the other server. It sounds like you're trying to get around security precautions of the other server, but if that's not the case, you ought to work this out with the administrator of the other server. This is not possible, the admin won't let them out. This is because of high loads on the network. He doesn't care if only a few people connect out. You can't create an IP tunnel over an FTP server; at least, not using any FTP server software I know well... The clients run Linux. Isn't it possible to get around this by routing their reqests? They would only need to set the default gateway.

Re: TWM focus
On Sun, Jun 01, 2003 at 09:06:12AM +0200 I heard the voice of Antoine Jacoutot, and lo! it spake thus: How can I make TWM to automatically focus a new window ? Each time I launch an application, a square (empty window) appears under my mouse pointer and I have to click to make the window appear, which is pretty annoying. If you have any idea... Put RandomPlacement in your .twmrc and it will place new windows itself. It won't give them focus though, unless they're under the mouse (since focus follows mouse). I think there's some way to make focus follow clicks instead of just the cursor, but who wants that? :) -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | [EMAIL PROTECTED] Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ The only reason I'm burning my candle at both ends, is because I haven't figured out how to light the middle yet ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Necessary to Reconfigure New XFree86 If No Changes?

Not sure of the version number of the original 4.X package, but I'm currently running FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE and I installed XFree86-4.X when I installed the operating system. When I discovered the error, I deinstalled the 3.X version (before configuring it) and then installed the most recent XFree86-4.3.0,1. I ran startx (without configuring anything) and everything seemed fine. Yes --- the XF86Config file you have now would have been automatically generated when you did the original system installation. So long as you haven't changed your hardware you won't need to regenerate that file as you update to more recent versions of XFree86-4.x Today, I installed a new mouse (two button w/wheel) but the wheel wasn't functioning. Someone had earlier requested help with a similar problem and they were advised to edit their /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file. I don't have a XF86Config-4 file, just a XF86Config file. I've made more than my share of bone-head moves with FreeBSD and I'm wondering now if should have configured XFree86-4.3.0,1. Is there an obvious way to tell? Take a look at the XF86Config(5) man page. There are a large number of variations on the config file name and a whole list of different places in the filesystem that X will search for it's configuration file. In short, it doesn't matter if the file is called XF86Config-4 or just plain XF86Config -- add the suggested edits to whichever one of those two you have. If X is working at all and you have a screen resolution and colour depth that suits you, then your XF86Config file needs no alteration. Take a look at /var/log/XFree.0.log -- it's fairly long, but the interesting point is the marker at the beginning of each line showing where each setting comes from. X will try and probe your hardware to discover as much information about your system as it can, so in a sense the less you have to explicitly tell it in the XF86Config file the better. Unfortunately one of the things that X can't detect entirely reliably is the layout of buttons, wheels etc. on the mouse.

Re: Changes to hosts.allow do no affect to inetd daemons some times
On Mon, Jun 02, 2003 at 05:26:15AM +0200, Alexander wrote: Hello ! Sometimes when I change my /etc/hosts.allow and kill and start again inetd, there is no difference. It's like I haven't edited /etc/hosts.allow. If I continue making changes and stop/start inetd there are no affections to the inetd daemons, they allow or deny as /etc/hosts.allow isn't modified since inetd was first started after the system bootstrapped. So what I do now is edit /etc/hosts.allow and then reboot. (Pretty ugly) But I noticed that this happens only to the /etc/inetd.conf daemons. Stand alone daemons like sshd haven't got such problem the changes occur immediately. You don't need to restart inetd(8) when you edit /etc/hosts.allow. TCP wrappers will immediately pick up any changes to that file and apply them to all subsequent processes connecting to a wrapped service. You are probably seeing the effect of persistent connections: either connections that are still ongoing or processes spawned by inetd marked as 'wait', which take over the socket and can accept new connections if they happen to be running already. Since the TCP wrappers function is provided by inetd, it can only be applied at the point that incoming network traffic causes inetd to start up the wrapped process. Generally processes managed by inetd are fairly short lived but there are occasional exceptions: nmbd from the samba suite always seems to start up one time and then run continuously for ever after. Note that long running services with the TCP wrappers functionality compiled in to them (sendmail, sshd etc) will pick up changes to hosts.allow instantaneously. Of course, samba software is itself generally linked against TCP wrappers in exactly this manner.

You are now subscribed to the WRIGHTSLAW list
Mon, 2 Jun 2003 01:41:03 Your subscription to the WRIGHTSLAW list (WrightsLaw Newsletter) has been accepted. Please save this message for future reference, especially if this is the first time you are subscribing to an electronic mailing list. If you ever need to leave the list, you will find the necessary instructions below. Perhaps more importantly, saving a copy of this message (and of all future subscription notices from other mailing lists) in a special mail folder will give you instant access to the list of mailing lists that you are subscribed to. This may prove very useful the next time you go on vacation and need to leave the lists temporarily so as not to fill up your mailbox while you are away! You should also save the welcome messages from the list owners that you will occasionally receive after subscribing to a new list. To send a message to all the people currently subscribed to the list, just send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] This is called sending mail to the list, because you send mail to a single address and LISTSERV makes copies for all the people who have subscribed. This address ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) is also called the list address. You must never try to send any command to that address, as it would be distributed to all the people who have subscribed. All commands must be sent to the LISTSERV address, [EMAIL PROTECTED] It is very important to understand the difference between the two, but fortunately it is not complicated. The LISTSERV address is like a FAX number that connects you to a machine, whereas the list address is like a normal voice line connecting you to a person. If you make a mistake and dial the FAX number when you wanted to talk to someone on the phone, you will quickly realize that you used the wrong number and call again. No harm will have been done. If on the other hand you accidentally make your FAX call someone's voice line, the person receiving the call will be inconvenienced, especially if your FAX then re-dials every 5 minutes. The fact that most people will eventually connect the FAX machine to the voice line to allow the FAX to go through and make the calls stop does not mean that you should continue to send FAXes to the voice number. People would just get mad at you. It works pretty much the same way with mailing lists, with the difference that you are calling hundreds or thousands of people at the same time, and consequently you can expect a lot of people to get upset if you consistently send commands to the list address. You may leave the list at any time by sending a SIGNOFF WRIGHTSLAW command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can also tell LISTSERV how you want it to confirm the receipt of messages you send to the list. If you do not trust the system, send a SET WRIGHTSLAW REPRO command and LISTSERV will send you a copy of your own messages, so that you can see that the message was distributed and did not get damaged on the way. After a while you may find that this is getting annoying, especially if your mail program does not tell you that the message is from you when it informs you that new mail has arrived from WRIGHTSLAW. If you send a SET WRIGHTSLAW ACK NOREPRO command, LISTSERV will mail you a short acknowledgement instead, which will look different in your mailbox directory. With most mail programs you will know immediately that this is an acknowledgement you can read later. Finally, you can turn off acknowledgements completely with SET WRIGHTSLAW NOACK NOREPRO. Following instructions from the list owner, your subscription options have been set to NOFILES NOREPRO NOCONCEAL SUBJECTHDR NOMAIL rather than the usual LISTSERV defaults. For more information about subscription options, send a QUERY WRIGHTSLAW command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Contributions sent to this list are automatically archived. You can get a list of the available archive files by sending an INDEX WRIGHTSLAW command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can then order these files with a GET WRIGHTSLAW LOG command, or using LISTSERV's database search facilities. Send an INFO DATABASE command for more information on the latter. This list is available in digest form. If you wish to receive the digested version of the postings, just issue a SET WRIGHTSLAW DIGEST command. Please note that it is presently possible for other people to determine that you are signed up to the list through the use of the REVIEW command, which returns the e-mail address and name of all the subscribers. If you do not want your name to be visible, just issue a SET WRIGHTSLAW CONCEAL command. More information on LISTSERV commands can be found in the LISTSERV reference card, which you can retrieve by sending an INFO REFCARD command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ [EMAIL

So what you say is that if I had opened identd socket for example then updating /etc/hosts.allow and changing rules for ftpd won't take affect on ftpd after new connection ? (assuming that noone is using my ftpd at all) Thanks On Mon, 2 Jun 2003, Matthew Seaman wrote: On Mon, Jun 02, 2003 at 05:26:15AM +0200, Alexander wrote: Hello ! Sometimes when I change my /etc/hosts.allow and kill and start again inetd, there is no difference. It's like I haven't edited /etc/hosts.allow. If I continue making changes and stop/start inetd there are no affections to the inetd daemons, they allow or deny as /etc/hosts.allow isn't modified since inetd was first started after the system bootstrapped. So what I do now is edit /etc/hosts.allow and then reboot. (Pretty ugly) But I noticed that this happens only to the /etc/inetd.conf daemons. Stand alone daemons like sshd haven't got such problem the changes occur immediately. You don't need to restart inetd(8) when you edit /etc/hosts.allow. TCP wrappers will immediately pick up any changes to that file and apply them to all subsequent processes connecting to a wrapped service. You are probably seeing the effect of persistent connections: either connections that are still ongoing or processes spawned by inetd marked as 'wait', which take over the socket and can accept new connections if they happen to be running already. Since the TCP wrappers function is provided by inetd, it can only be applied at the point that incoming network traffic causes inetd to start up the wrapped process. Generally processes managed by inetd are fairly short lived but there are occasional exceptions: nmbd from the samba suite always seems to start up one time and then run continuously for ever after. Note that long running services with the TCP wrappers functionality compiled in to them (sendmail, sshd etc) will pick up changes to hosts.allow instantaneously. Of course, samba software is itself generally linked against TCP wrappers in exactly this manner.

Re: Doh ! Installed FBSD5.0 and no more dual boot
I cannot use the recovery option because I cannot for the life of me remember the admin passwd. Doh! indeed. Then if setting the Win2K partition active doesn't work, I'm out of better options than your suggestion to do a fresh install and mount the old Win2K partition from there. But I'm no guru. Anyone else have a suggestion? just as a FYI.

Installing packages
Hi all, I installed tdb and tinycdb and it seems they installed it in /usr/local. Not sure how to include their header files properly. For example, #include cdb.h won't work, unless I move /usr/local/include/cdb.h to /usr/include/cdb.h But not sure how the libraries and all the other files moved there.

Re: Changes to hosts.allow do no affect to inetd daemons some times
Hello I really know what tcp wrappers is. I just can't exactly get your point. I'm telling you that I shut the ftpd totaly, I've left just one line at /etc/hosts.allow: ALL : ALL : deny and when I simply telnet-ed my.host.com 21 it opened a connection. I have also auth, pop3, smtp (qmail actually) I've shutted the qmail totaly. The pop3 wasn't in use so it leaves to auth. According to you if the auth service is active while I change /etc/hosts.allow, there might be a problem with auth only ... but what about the others ?! Does this affect them too ? As I said, I tried even to kill inetd.

I'm telling you that I shut the ftpd totaly, I've left just one line at /etc/hosts.allow: ALL : ALL : deny and when I simply telnet-ed my.host.com 21 it opened a connection. Ah. If TCP wrappers is working correctly, you should see the connection open and then close either almost immediately or as soon as you try and pass any traffic. A port scanner, like nmap(1) will show the port as open. You certainly shouldn't see any FTP banners or other FTP traffic if you telnet to the port though, and you should see a log message from TCP wrappers showing that it denied access. If you want to run an ftp service hidden completely from certain remote sites, then ipfw(8) or ipf(8) is your friend. What does 'tcpdmatch' say if you test it with various daemon names and client addresses? I have also auth, pop3, smtp (qmail actually) I've shutted the qmail totaly. The pop3 wasn't in use so it leaves to auth. According to you if the auth service is active while I change /etc/hosts.allow, there might be a problem with auth only ... but what about the others ?! Does this affect them too ? As I said, I tried even to kill inetd. Nothing helped If you kill inetd entirely, then all of the ports managed by inetd should be closed, as 'netstat -a' should show. There are 5 different example lines for the 'auth' service in /etc/inetd.conf, 4 of which are internal inetd services using 'nowait'. Just use one or more of those, rather than the external identd. 'auth' is meant to be a security thing, but honestly it's pretty much useless --- correctly paranoid system administrators will worry that it reveals entirely too much about the internal setup of their systems and either shut it off or configure it to lie by default. Personally I tend to set up my firewalls to just reset connections to port 113 (nb. not drop, as that will lead to annoying delays) and not run any auth service at all: % grep 113 /etc/happy-idiot-talk.ipfw add 1300 reset tcp from any to 81.2.69.216/29{218,219} 113 setup in recv de0 Again, it's not happening just to a single wrapped daemon, it's happening to all in /etc/inetd.conf What flags are you supplying when you start up inetd? The default is: inetd_flags=-wW which turns on the TCP wrappers for internal (W) and external (w) services via inetd. If you've modified the inetd_flags setting in /etc/rc.conf, you should make sure you include those two letters. If you're still flummoxed, try running inetd with the '-d' (debug) flag and test making some connections.
