Re: Update to earlier post (corrections)
We recently received our RMA'd board(s) back. These boards belong to the same family of the original board we did this install on/with. In plain English: initial install = Tyan Tiger-MP (S-2460) -- USB mouse working upgraded = Tyan Tiger-MPX (S-2466) -- USB mouse still working switched to: gigabyte GA-6bxds -- mouse stopped working. The USB mouse was seen, but wasn't able to get mouse to respond with movement. dmesg | grep -I usb uhci0: Intel 82371AB/EB (PIIX4) USB controller port 0xa000-0xa01f irq 10 at device 7.2 on pci0 usb0: Intel 82371AB/EB (PIIX4) USB controller on uhci0 usb0: USB revision 1.0 ums0: Logitech USB Mouse, rev 1.10/6.10, addr 2, iclass 3/1 as posted on: http://69.3.136.141/freebsd/usb_mouse.txt We tried both: device uhci# UHCI PCI-USB interface deviceohci# OHCI PCI-USB interface in the kernel config file.

Any idea what this means? This is an attempt to exploit an old Linux rpc.statd vulnerability..see the mailing list archives for extensive discussion a few years ago. OK, I got some good info from the archives. I realize this is a harmless attack if running FBSD. I also realize that I shouldn't be running rpc on an interface facing the internet. For various reasons, this server is outside my hardware firewall, and I'm not interested in configuring a software firewall. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks to me like rpc.statd is related (at least) to NFS. I've placed the line nfs_server_flags=-h 192.168.254.2 in my /etc/rc.conf, and rebooted. I've also edited /etc/ssh/sshd_config, and told it to listen only on 192.168.254.2, and not allow root logins. Am I now protected from this attack?

Crash under disk writes (vinum?)
Hi, I'm running 5.1-RELEASE (latest patch version) on a machine with a couple of disks set up in a concatenated vinum-type config. Periodically if I do some ``heavy'' writes to the concatenated disk it causes the system to panic and reboot. I'm not sure it's because of vinum, but my guess is that it is -- on the same two disks is a mirrored volume which has no write problems. My questions are first) has anybody else heard of this? Any solutions or ideas? and secondly) how can I effectively go about debugging this? This is a headless machine and it reboots often before I realise, so I can't see the diagnostic messages. With some debugging symbols in the kernel can I provide useful stuff for somebody to look at? Will my vinum config be useful for helping resolve this issue?

Re: Handling of multiple Pythons on the same system
Kirk Strauser [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: How do you manage multiple versions of Python on the same machine? I'm running Zope on one of my servers and it requires Python 2.1 (and has known issues with later versions). I want to install other applications that require Python 2.3. I've installed the lang/python (2.3) and lang/python21 ports and everything is basically OK. Except, now, that I want to use the databases/py-psycopg port with both versions of Python. Whenever I build the port, I get either: py21-psycopg-1.1.7 or py23-psycopg-1.1.7 depending on whether /usr/local/bin/python is a link to python2.1 or python2.3 at the port's build time. Those packages are mutually exclusive; they both write some files to the same place, and write other files to version-specific paths. This is quickly becoming a hassle. Is there a good workaround for this situation? You should talk to the port maintainer about it. The only suggestion I can think of is to set up a second port PREFIX for the ports that depend on the older Python. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Cron
Good Morning! I'm in the process of converting all of our servers from BSD/OS. One of the things that I've always done is to copy all of the jobs from `/etc/crontab' to root's crontab so that all of the system jobs are in one place. FreeBSD's cron doesn't seem to like this, however. I'm seeing a lot of not found errors. I tried adding... PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin ; export PATH ...to the beginning of root's crontab but this does not work. Is there a central location at which I can specify a path? `/etc/login.conf' would be my first guess but the default path already contains the required directories. Thanks!

why does motherboard sound suck?
I just got new hardware and I installed 5.1 on it (not tht it matters, because what I am asking about is observed in 4.X). Why is it that so-called the built-in soundcard that my motherboard comes with does work with everything? By that I mean that I can play the usual multimedia stuff without a hitch, xmms, mpg123, mplayer, artsd all work just fine. The card comes up as some AC97 under pcm. But if I try to use some of the more esoteric ports like stella or festival, I get no sound. With festival I can do a trick like filter the output through the command 'sox -r 1600 -t sw $FILE -r 4800 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp' because it provides hooks to do this, but I don't see why I have to (btw the port can't build festival on 5.1 yet, but you can on 4.X, and I am working on patching it for 5.1). stella, the atari emulator, has the same trouble. I have observed this on another motherboard with a so-called built-in soundcard as well (mpg123 plays, sox plays, stella doesn't) about 2 years ago (problem solved by buying a SB16 for it). The solution has, in the past, been to just keep using an old soundblaster card and disabling motherboard sound in favor of the SB card. But I am tired of using up a PCI slot just to keep a handful of my favorite ports running. I've looked at the sources to festival (and a bit at stella, though I do not understand them as well), specicially the voxware.cc file which seems to talk directly to /dev/dsp. It doesn't seem to do anything fancy, just sets the same rate and copies an array of sound bytes to a FILE*. So I ask, where does the fault lie? Is stella/festival soundblaster centric, and just won't talk to AC97 cards? Is my motherboard AC97 deficient? And why are motherboard cards deficient? Should I focus my energy on my hardware (replace card)? My OS (debug AC97 driver or find a sox-like workaround for stella)? Or my apps (debug stella and festival)? I'll bet there are other ports that I don't use that have this same trouble. -r ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Logging users activity with termlog

How should I do it? I don't think there are any great answers there. The easy hack is to mess with login scripts, but that would be visible to the user (if they checked). For a fair amount of extra effort, you could hack it into login(1) itself. 2. I noticed that running screen program and then leaving it (quit, not detach) makes termlog to quit with: termlog: fatal: unable to poll device.: Bad file descriptor User is still logged in. The same quit reason is when user don't use screen and logout. What's wrong? 3. -t switch should put timestamps in the output file but it doesn't. Files created with -t and without it are identical. Those are problems specific to termlog; since I never heard of it until now, I don't know much, but on the first I would guess that it's not opening the real terminal line.

Here is my rules file for you to use as sample. # # Outside Interface to Public internet (Outbound Section) # Interrogate packets originating from behind the firewall, private net. # destine for the public internet. # # Allow out access to my ISP's Domain name server. @100 pass out quick on rl0 proto tcp from any to 24.50.201.66 port = 53 flags S keep state @101 pass out quick on rl0 proto udp from any to 24.50.201.66 port = 53 keep state @102 pass out quick on rl0 proto tcp from any to 24.50.201.67 port = 53 flags S keep state @103 pass out quick on rl0 proto udp from any to 24.50.201.67 port = 53 keep state @104 pass out quick on rl0 proto tcp from any to 24.50.201.69 port = 53 flags S keep state @105 pass out quick on rl0 proto udp from any to 24.50.201.69 port = 53 keep state # Allow out access to my ISP's DHCP server. @106 pass out quick on rl0 proto udp from any to 24.50.201.66 port = 67 keep state # Allow out non-secure standard www function @110 pass out quick on rl0 proto tcp from any to any port = 80 flags S keep state # Allow out secure www function https over TLS SSL @115 pass out quick on rl0 proto tcp from any to any port = 443 flags S keep state # Allow out send get email function @130 pass out quick on rl0 proto tcp from any to any port = 110 flags S keep state @131 pass out quick on rl0 proto tcp from any to any port = 25 flags S keep state # Allow out Time @140 pass out quick on rl0 proto tcp from any to any port = 37 keep state # Allow out nntp news [EMAIL PROTECTED] pass out quick on rl0 proto tcp from any to any port = 119 @150 pass out quick on rl0 proto tcp from any to any port = 119 flags S keep state # Allow out passive FTP for LAN PC FTP to public Internet @160 pass out quick on rl0 proto tcp from any to any port = 21 flags S keep state @161 pass out quick on rl0 proto tcp from any to any port 1023 flags S keep state # Allow out ping to public Internet @170 pass out quick on rl0 proto icmp from any to any icmp-type 8 keep state # Allow out whois for LAN PC to public Internet @172 pass out quick on rl0 proto tcp from any to any port = 43 flags S keep state # Allow out traceroute to public Internet #pass out quick on rl0 proto udp from any to any port 33434 33690 keep state # Deny Everything else trying to get out. @199 block out log quick on rl0 all # # Outside Interface to Public internet (Inbound Section) # Interrogate packets originating from public internet # destine for my private net. # # Allow traffic in from ISP's DHCP server. @300 pass in quick on rl0 proto udp from 24.50.201.66 to any port = 68 keep state .201.66 to any port = 68 keep state # Deny all Adelphia broadcast junk stuff so it does not show in log @310 block in quick on rl0 proto udp from any to 255.255.255.255 @311 block in quick on rl0 proto tcp/udp from 0.0.0.0 to any @312 block in quick on rl0 proto igmp from any to any # Allow in non-secure standard www function @320 pass in quick on rl0 proto tcp from 63.70.155.0/24 to any port = 80 flags S keep state # Allow in Telnet @330 pass in quick on rl0 proto tcp from 63.70.155.0/24 to any port = 23 flags S keep state # Allow in ping from public Internet @340 pass in quick on rl0 proto icmp from 63.70.155.0/24 to any icmp-type 8 keep state # Deny ping so it does not show in log @350 block in quick on rl0 proto icmp all # Deny ident so it does not show in log @351 block in quick on rl0 proto tcp from any to any port = 113 # Block and log all remaining traffic coming into the firewall @399 block in log quick on rl0 all # # Block and log all remaining traffic coming into the firewall # - Block TCP with a RST (to make it appear as if the service # isn't listening) # - Block UDP with an ICMP Port Unreachable (to make it appear # as if the service isn't listening) # - Block all remaining traffic the good 'ol fashioned way # #block return-rst in log quick on rl0 proto tcp from any to any #block return-icmp-as-dest(port-unr) in log quick on rl0 proto udp from any to any #block in log quick on rl0 all # # Inside Interface # # # Allow out all TCP, UDP, and ICMP traffic keep state # @500 pass out quick on xl0 proto tcp from any to any @501 pass out quick on xl0 proto udp
Ckermit, Minicom, and even Windows Dial Up won't work..

The connection is made, but I never get a login prompt. So I decided to try Minicom (also from the ports)... I get the same results, connection is made, but I get no login prompts. Then I tried a dial up program from Windows, Pro Com is what I think it was called... Same result... It's connecting, but I get no login prompt I even tried several of my customers who are running SCO and all of them are producing the same result. Now, this just started happening with a move to a new server, about 2 weeks ago. Before then, I was able to dial into all of my customers sites without any problems... Can anyone shed some light onto why this is happening only after I moved to a server with newer hardware? The hardware is identical to the old box, just newer... I made sure of that...

Wine on FreeBSD 4.x
Hello all,
I seem to have gotten myself into a pi$$ing match here
at work. Everyone here runs RH 8 or 9. I am running
FreeBSD 4.x STABLE. They can all download and run
Crossover Office, which is frintend for Wine and
allows them to run M$ Office on their systems, meaning
they can dump their Windows workstations and use
Linux.
I said that I could do the same on FreeBSD. Crossover
office does not run on FreeBSD. (shame on them) So I
loaded Wine from ports. I can now run notepad,
progman, and wcmd (command prompt). But when I try and
load Office 2000, I get the followin error:
wine /cdrom/SETUPOUT.EXE
Could not stat /mnt/fd0 (No such file or directory),
ignoring drive A:

fixme:msi:MsiInstallProductW LD:\\data1Out.msi L
Call not implemented
Is there someone out there who is running Wine on
FreeBSD that could help?
Thanks,
Ron Clark

What I'm wanting to do is to mount an FTP site to a folder on my file system. That way when I go to, oh say /mysite on my file system, it would automatically log me into ftp.mysite.org/Pub/ for example and display the remote site as though it were on my local system.

Re: Latest stable fixes are unstable
Hi, First off, there is no 5.0 STABLE. If you cvsup'd to 5.x this is the source of your problems as that is the development branch. To better understand what problems you are having, you need to give information like a crash dump. Compile a debug kernel for the machine that is crashing See http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug.html enable the saving of your core dump on your swap partition. e.g. if you have it on a 3ware card add dumpdev=/dev/twed0b # Device name to crashdump to (or NO). dumpdir=/var/crash# Directory where crash dumps are to be stored to /etc/rc.conf and reboot or type /sbin/dumpon /dev/twed0b or if you have an ide drive and the swap is on ad0s1b, then /sbin/dumpon /dev/ad0s1b when your machine crashes / panics, type gdb -k kernel.debug /var/crash/vmcore.0 and type bt send the results to the stable list, which if you track stable you should be following. ---Mike At 03:36 PM 09/10/2003, Jeffrey Wheat wrote: After applying the last set of patches via a cvs run of RELENG_4, I have servers crashing and rebooting that had run for months on end prior to the fixes.

Re: Jail FS questions.
I'm not sure about union fs, never had a real use for it yet I have a similair setup as you. I have about 4 jails running so far (~8 more to go). I've written a fairly large bash scipt to build the jails + configure them automagically too. I've got a 120GB drive in that system, so for me I don't really have a problem with space. What I use nullfs for is sharing data between jails, for example: /secure/files/mail - mail spools would be shared using: (/etc/crontab entries) none /secure/files/mail /secure/internal/smtp/postfix/server/var/spool/mail rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev 0 0 none /secure/files/mail /secure/internal/imap/courier/server/var/spool/mail rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev 0 0 haven't really got these up and running yet (ie. I don't really know if postfix + courier both work inside a jail). ATM I'm stuck on my file server jail, which may never work. I do have djbdns cache+server running. Anyway, nullfs is great for remounting parts of the file system. I would not use that to remount parts of the file system that have executables on them in rw mode, only ro. You could mount the base / fs using nullfs onto the jail / filesystem but this would be tricky because you would have to deal with things like syslogd base + syslogd(s) jail both writing to /var/log/. You could mount each directory using nullfs (/bin /sbin, etc) onto the jails and I think this would work. I would note the warnings in the man pages about this stuff being experimental tho. You could save space by using the same executables and libs while having seperate /var/ /etc/ etc dirs in the jail but it would be a bit of work to figure out what dirs to mount_nullfs and what dirs to have as real dirs.

All that happens on the 4.8(4.9RC) servers is they suddenly reboot without leaving anything in the log files at all, so it is very difficult to provide more details on the crash. In the case of the 4.9 systems, are you VERY up-to-date? There were a few changes recently made which did cause problems for some users, but it should be true that all of those are now fixed. You'd pretty much want to be running *today's* sources to get all those. I think it should be telling you that the system name is 4.9-RC2 if it has (what we think are) all the fixes. (I might be wrong on that, I haven't actually rebuilt my 4.x machine yet this week). On the 5.0 servers, I get page faults. I am going to enable crash dumps on these servers now. I'm having some odd problems with 5.x-current right now, but I haven't been able to figure out what it is yet. In my case, it *might* still be a hardware problem, though it seems odd that I have zero trouble with 4.9 on the same hardware (and my problems with 5.x didn't start until this September). For me, the problem with the 5.x is that the machine completely locks up, which makes it a real hassle. It is also true that a week (or two?) ago there were changes to 5.x which caused problems for many people.

snort + trunk + cat6500 + vacls
i'm testing out alternatives for using span ports or inline taps and came across a doc on using vlan acls to capture data and send them to a port for sniffing. From what i under stand the sniffer port needs to be a trunk port. What i don't really understand is how freebsd is going to work with the trunk. Do i need a vlan interface for every vlan in the trunk, or do i only need one vlan interface to match the native vlan of the trunk? Also what should i be sniffing? the vlan interface(s) or the real interface? btw i'm no switch engineer so go easy on me :) oh, and one more thing. debug.bpf_bufsize: 4096 - shold this be increased or will snort overide this number? ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Yeah, same here, but the way I figure it is it's surely better to conserve the disk space if at all possible ;) jails, for example: /secure/files/mail - mail spools would be shared using: (/etc/crontab entries) none /secure/files/mail /secure/internal/smtp/postfix/server/var/spool/mail rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev 0 0 none /secure/files/mail /secure/internal/imap/courier/server/var/spool/mail rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev 0 0 haven't really got these up and running yet (ie. I don't really know if postfix + courier both work inside a jail). I can confirm they both do ;) I assume you mean Courier-IMAP and not the Courier MTA. It sucks. Postfix or Exim are much better ;) Anyway, nullfs is great for remounting parts of the file system. Yeah, right now I'm using NFS mounts, which is a bit ugly, to say the least. Since I had troubles with union I steered clear of nullfs, since the same ``slippery dog'' warning exists ;) Thanks very much for sharing your ideas, eventually somebody will write a jail HOWTO that covers all of the different methods of achieving these things...
