I have only glanced at it. I'd be very interested to hear from people who are picky, who have actually used any of these packages, and who can tell me how to use them well. (Amongst other things, this is a roundabout way of saying that I don't know anything good myself). My issues are: - OpenOffice: a real pig to work with. I also have font problems which I'm sure I could fix if I found it worth the trouble, but after preparing a presentation with other people who didn't have the font problems, I don't think it's worth it. OpenOffice is really a Microsoft clone, and it doesn't fit well into UNIX. - MagicPoint: something to make the GUI approach look good. Fonts are rough, features were pretty minimal when I tried it, and the syntax blows my mind. I haven't tried the others. I need something that will interface with UNIX text files, and I suspect that MagicPoint's the only choice there. Personally, I use groff and ghostscript to create the slides in PDF form (ghostview has a helper application called ps2pdf to create the PDF), and then I use acroread to display them.

The usr volume seems to be fine according to fsck, however. vinum list correctly notes both drives are up, four volumes have two plexes, the 8 plexes are up and sized, and the subdisks are up. fsck -n /dev/vinum/var before mirroring produced no complaints, otherwise I'd conclude that I just mirrored a corrupt plex but that doesn't seem to be the case. It looks something like that. In single user mode, do an fsck on each of the component plexes. My guess is that (at least) one plex of each volume will be bad.

Sounds like you aren't shutting down FreeBSD cleanly, and consequently your disk partitions aren't getting unmounted properly. The vast majority of the time, the system should survive an unclean shutdown pretty well but you may lose any recent changes to files that hadn't been properly flushed to disk yet, and you'll end up with filesystems in an unclean state that will require a fsck(8) check and repair cycle on reboot. If you're really unlucky though you'll do significant damage to the filesystem that can't be fixed automatically on boot up, and you'll have to go into single user mode and run fsck(8) manually, plus whatever else it takes to repair the system (which sort of thing is getting into real unix guru territory). In order to shutdown FreeBSD cleanly, use the command: # shutdown -h which will put the system into a 'halted' state where it is safe to hit the power buttons. Or if your Motherboard supports it, and you've made the appropriate changes to your kernel config you can use: # shutdown -p which should do a halt as above, and then automatically power off. Or if you want to immediately reboot -- perhaps to switch to another OS you have installed, use: # shutdown -r Don't just run plain 'shutdown' without options, as all that does is drop you to single user mode and doesn't go on to unmount the disks and so forth. If you do accidentally forget the options on the shutdown command, just try again with the correct command from single user mode.

We don't distinguish between newbies and old timers when offering support. Everyone deserves the best we can give, and that's in freebsd-questions. Also the developers watch freebsd-questions to see if new users are having trouble installing new versions. You might not have realised that people are not supposed to ask questions, nor answer them, on freebsd-newbies. If someone does that by mistake, you can be sure they don't know much about FreeBSD or its community and you wouldn't want their advice. So there is no point ever searching the -newbies archives for help. Just use freebsd-questions for any help, asking or offering or searching. You don't have to join the list first. If you read the mailing list charters on the web site, you'll see what the difference is. When you join a mailing list, you get sent your own copy of its list charter. If you have trouble working out how to use the mailing lists effectively, _that_ is something you are very welcome to ask about in freebsd-newbies. Thanks again for your helpful approach, and I'm glad to see you got everything sorted out in the end. If you need any more help please write again to freebsd-questions, or if you just want to chat I'll see you over at freebsd-newbies. -- Regards, -*Sue*- ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Email notification
Hello! On my FreeBSD 5.1 system, I set up a postfix mail server and am now able to send email through the mail command on the command line. I would like to send an email notification to an outside email address whenever new mail arrives in a certain mailbox. What is the best procedure to follow here? Thanks for any hints.

problem with perl version
I am runing freebsd 5.1 I have a problem with perl versions I need to use perl 5.8.0 but everytime I install from ports a application which depends from perl 5.6 something is overwritten and perl 5.8.0 is not avalaible and I have to make reinstall perl 5.8.0 every time. Is there a way to set a system variable for perl5.8.0 as default? I also tryed with this in /etc/make.conf PERL_VER=5.8.0 PERL_VERSION=5.8.0 but it is useless. if I then install an application from ports which uses perl5.6 the default perl becomes perl 5.6 regardless of make.conf settings. thank you very much Rick ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

...
Having had some experience writing pam modules on a number of
platforms, I whipped out my suite of pam test modules to have a look
at this incredbible breakage you speak of. I mean, there is a
specification for pam after all.
Could you suggest where to look for information on writing modules to
handle session tasks? I've looked at the PAM stuff superficially over the
years, and would be very interested in doing something with the session
modules to do things like automatically creating missing home directories
with appropriate links to automounted directories.
I haven't done much with this on FreeBSD yet since I need pam_ldap and
nss_ldap support which only seems to be available in the 5.x tree.
Well, it isn't exactly rocket science, just a small matter of
programming. The pam interface itself is not very complicated; any
decent programmer can pick it up in an afternoon. The specification
can be downloaded from the OpenGroup, abd google will happily locate
lots of sample code of varying quality for you. Modules aren't harder
to port than any other code, the actual pam bits are mostly the same,
modulo non-standard utility extensions, but those are usually trivial
to port, replace or re-implement.
One of the problems with pam is that there are very few guarantees on
the context the module will be called in will look like. Will the uid
be zero, or that of a user? Will all phases of the module be called
from inside the same process? Will the session be closed twice after
a fork? Will the service name stay the same over all phases?
Trying to do anything more clever than verifying a password quickly
leads to a jungle of special cases (number of pamified applications
times number of platforms). Attempts at managing some kind of state
between modules or different callbacks in the same module are more
or less doomed to fail.
Anyhow, just for kicks I grabbed the pam_mkhomedir module from
RedHat9, and made it build on FreeBSD. It involved fixing the usual
linuxisms (remove non-standard header files, add missing standard
header files), and adding some FreeBSD-isms, like the leading dot.
used for template files.
A quick test with telnet shows that it seems to work, at least once :)
The test also illustrates how the interaction between application and
pam doesn't always work smoothly: the FreeBSD login program will
already have discovered there there is no home directory, printed an
error message and potentially denied access before the session modules
are invoked.
Thus there login messages contain:
No home directory.
Logging in with home = /.
Creating directory '/home/testguy'.
And then, as a band-aid, I threw in a chdir($HOME) in the session
module to avoid having the user end up in /.
Patch and build instructions below. Comes with no warranty. Slippery
when wet. May cause bodily injury. Will probably break with NFS
automounted home dirs. Etc...
Enjoy,

How to downgrade X 4.3 -- 4.2?
Hi folks, I seem to have opened a (new) can of worms by cvsuping the ports tree and doing #portupgrade -Ra which moved me from XFree86 4.2.0 to 4.3.0 (meta-port). I'd most like to find out what the problem is eg, see http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xfree86m=106537114610303w=2 but was wondering if I could work around it by backing out the upgrade. I know I can back out an upgrade to the OS by cvsuping to an older date and making world. But how does one back out a port as complex as X? Is it as simple as downloading an appropriately old version of the meta-port makefile, eg from http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/x11/XFree86-4/Makefile say revision 1.142 and #portupgrade -fR XFree86 or perhaps I would need to get older versions of all the files in the meta port? Or would I need older versions of all files in all the dependencies also? I suppose I could cvsup my whole ports tree to the date of the older meta port makefile, do the portupgrade, then cvsup the ports tree again to get back up to date, refusing changes to the x11 category.

If you want to run syslogd and cron in UTC, I believe you could do so by setting something like this in /etc/rc.conf: cron_program='/usr/bin/env TZ=UTC /usr/sbin/cron' syslogd_program='/usr/bin/env TZ=UTC /usr/sbin/syslogd' Recently I have had need to allow users to set their own timezone in the .cshrc using: sentenv TZ America/Detroit or sentenv TZ America/Denver or whatever applies. Of course, you meant 'setenv' and not 'sentenv'. But what I am finding out is that as long as the user is logged in it sets the environment for the entire system affecting log timestamps as well as cron events. Unless you set TZ in /etc/profile, it should not have a universal effect. Are you sure you didn't kill and restart syslogd as root with TZ configured to a non-UTC timezone? Maybe try setting TZ only if the shell is interactive, by adding the setenv after the line if ($?prompt) then...? -- -Chuck ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: A question about freeBSD.
Dawn, FreeBSD can most definitely meet the needs of your office, depending on what they are and what applications are available. For example, I'm not sure of what exact program is necessary, but I know there are Microsoft Exchange type server apps out there for FreeBSD, so the partners shouldn't even have to change their desktop machines, unless they all want to... The FreeBSD system can provide email, web server, fileserver, and proxy server access for a large number of clients, and 6 will definitely not be a problem. Send us an email on what, exactly your requirements are, and one of us will be able to help you set that portion up. Remember, FreeBSD is free to use, and it can't hurt trying to set something up, right?

Re: Anyone using Linux-PAM on 5.x?
Having had some experience writing pam modules on a number of platforms, I whipped out my suite of pam test modules to have a look at this incredbible breakage you speak of. I mean, there is a specification for pam after all. I know of the specification. However, I have a customized version of the pam-mysql module that I have tried to install. In a previous post to this list about a week or two ago, I wrote about getting only the following entrys in the log file (an example of one from today) : Oct 5 13:04:15 sharktooth login: in opempam_load_module(): no pam_mysql.so found Oct 5 13:04:15 sharktooth login: pam_start(): failed to load module Now, it is there in the /usr/lib/ directory, it has the correct permissions, correct owner, etc. In the /etc/pam.d/login file, I've even put in absolute paths, and non-aboslute paths. I've copied existing module entries, changing only the module name (such as pam_unix to pam_mysql). Hmmm... odd; the modules all build and work just fine, modulo some minor tweaks mostly related to gcc 3.x, even though I have never built them on FreeBSD 5 before. Definitely no worse than when porting to certain commercial platforms. Can you at least point me to some documentation? I don't mind porting the module. I've copied the pam_unix.c module that comes with the openpam source code (dogwood release, the one in 5.x), changed references from pam_unix to pam_mysql, leaving the actual implementations in place so I make sure that I'm not messing something up, and STILL get the same log file entries, so it can't be the code in the module. What's the deal? Whatever difficulties you are experiencing, I'd say the reason is not specifically related to openpam or FreeBSD 5. Maybe if you post some details, such as source and error messages, someone will be able to help you. Regards, /Mikko Mikko [EMAIL PROTECTED] RSA Security If you want the source, give me a day or two to remove proprietary code, and I can get that back to you - however, it will look extremely similar to the existing pam_mysql module, because that was the basis for my work. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Can anyone give me some insight into this problem, and a possible solution? TIA for any help you can give me. Best guess would be that you installed from packages rather than ports, and the packages were in some way mismatched. Installing software from ports avoids this risk, but with packages you should be able to get them all from one place and have it work. I thought that might be the problem, too, so I uninstalled the package, then built the port of tcl8.3. It didn't make any difference; the libtcl8.3 library still had the undefined symbol. I would have expected that you would need to rebuild the libtcl port... There's something odder happening here; a check inside the libraries for tcl8.0, 8.2, and 8.4 all show that __xuname is a symbol in all of them. Since it doesn't seem to be defined anywhere, I'm stumped as to how to proceed to get around this problem. Is anyone else having this problem running tcl/tk programs of _any_ recent vintage?

FreeBSD Linksys EG1032 network card
I'm having trouble getting a LinkSys EG1032 gigabit network card to work in RELENG_4_8. The 4.8 Hardware Notes say the card uses the nge driver. I grepped the LINT kernel config file for anything secific to the EG1032 and didn't find anything special, so I recompiled a kernel with device nge. I also have device miibus for the Intel EtherExpress Pro (fxp) card I'm using. When the machine boots, I see this line: pci0: unknown card (vendor=0x1737, dev=0x1032) at 13.0 irq 11 Here's my entire dmesg: Copyright (c) 1992-2003 The FreeBSD Project.

I use the port minicom and recommend it. It's pretty small. It uses a (nice) curses interface, so it doesn't require X11. It also has very few dependences in the ports tree (just the lrzsz port). One thing more thing. The default for minicom is a vt102 terminal. So when you hook up to a FreeBSD server, your first command should be setenv TERM vt102. Otherwise, FreeBSD will assume cons25. If you want the swiss-army-knife of serial programs, there is always Kermit from the ports tree. It takes awhile to learn because it's got so many options. But once you learn it, it will connect to just about anything.

flphoto for FreeBSD?
Hello! In the magazine Linux-User (http://www.linux-user.de) I came across the photo editing programme flphoto, written by cups-author Michael Sweets. This port is not yet included in the ports collection.Anybody knows the reason for this? I tried once to compile it via ./configure make make install, but got a lot of syntax errors, and did not retry because I do not feel familiar with C/C++ Any hints appreciated Gabriel ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Encrypted Password Portability Between releases
Hey everyone... cryptography is not really my strong point and I'm trying to do something I thought should have been fairly easy. We have a number of machines running various versions of FreeBSD from 4.7-RELEASE to 4.8-STABLE. Our password files for our users are generated through passwords which are currently being stored in plain text. I wish to encrypt these on a central server and store them in the database for better security, however I'm running into some problems. It appears to work on some systems and some systems it does not. I have tried DES and MD5 encryption. Most of these systems have been upgraded from much earlier releases of the 4 branch, and the passwords of users not generated from the database seem to have been find after each upgrade. So my question is, what am I doing wrong? Is there a way to encrypt a password on one system and have it work on all FreeBSD machines no matter what release its running? If I encrypt on a 4.7 box will it work on a 4.8 system, just not the other way around? Thanks for any help of information you can provide.
