Wine 20040505 problem

2004-05-13 Thread Jesse Guardiani

Hmmm,

Just compiled Wine 20040505 on FBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE
and now I can't use the File-Open command in notepad.

Any ideas?

implementing password policies

2004-05-13 Thread Chris Ochs

We need to implement a password policy that does not allow a user to pick a
password that is the same as any of their last 4 passwords.  Any ideas on
how to do this on freebsd?  Would this require a custom PAM module or is
there already one out there that can do this?

Creating periodic cron jobs

2004-05-13 Thread Robert Fitzpatrick

I am trying to create a quarter-daily cron job on my FreeBSD 5.2.1 as
follows in /etc/crontab:

05 0,6,12,18 * * * root  periodic quarter-daily

I created the /etc/periodic/quarter-daily directory and placed my script
there. After I ran 'crontab -u root /etc/crontab', now I am getting
these mail messages below, it seems I have created, for example, cron
jobs as 'root /usr/libexec/atrun' in addition to the usual
'/usr/libexec/atrun'. It has done this for daily, weekly, etc. as well.
Can someone tell me what I did wrong?

Move a locked file

2004-05-13 Thread Michael Alexander

Hi All:
I have a multi-boot 3 unix box I'm toying with. I was using the Debian
partition as my main work station for a while... till I broke it. I have
some e-mails and addresses on that partition I would like to export to
the other partitions, perhaps even create a permanent reference file to
share system wide. The main problem I have, beside the fact that, in my
lust for UNIX POWER, I keep breaking things:), is that the Evolution
files in my mostly-dead Debian partition are locked and resist any
attempt to move them. Any thoughts on gaining access to these files to
copy or move them? 

 BTW I'm thinking of using Knoppix as my recovery tool, and the boot
error on Debian is: 

Enter runlevel 5
ID 1 respawning too fast; waite for five minute.
ID 2 respawning too fast; waite for five minute.
ID 3 respawning too fast; waite for five minute.

OK, thanks, that seems to have worked, just not informing the system.
But now when my script runs in the 'quarter-hourly' directory, I get the
following, the script is running fine:

Of course, I'm not getting the mail message that the cron would normally
produce.

Network setup question

2004-05-13 Thread Schizik

Hello, everyone!


I do need following setup, but I have no idea how it can be acomplished.

Internal Network  -- Gateway   Internet link 1
   |__ Internet link 2


Internal network uses private IP space
All computers on internal network connect to gateway
with VPN (gateway has mpd running) assigned IPs are
also private space, gateway does NAT.

There are 2 classes of users on Internal network
They are assigned VPN IPs from two different private networks
(like 10.0.1.x and 10.0.2.x)

The problem is that traffic from 10.0.1.x should be NATed and send via
Internet link 1, while traffic from 10.0.2.x should be NATed and send via
Internet link 2.

Is this kind of setup possible?


Cheers,
 Alex.

hw.pcic.intr_path=1 device hint for 5x

2004-05-13 Thread yussef

I have a laptop which requires the sysctl hw.pcic.intr_path=1 to be set for the 
laptop to not get a panic in 4.x.
I'm trying to do a fresh install of 5.2.1, but have not found the equivalent 
device.hint.
I've tried hint.pcic.0.disable=1, as well as the older sysctl's hw.pcic.intr_path=1 
and hw.pcic.irq=0 [the latter two are suggested in the handbook]. im not sure if the 
sysctl's are still valid in 5.x, but all the above values still resulted in a kernel 
panic at:
cbb0: TI4410 PCI-CardBus Bridge at device 10.0 on pci0
cardbus0: CardBus bus on cbb0
pccard-: 16-bit PCCard bus on cbb0
pci_cfgintr_virgin: using routable interrupt 4

Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
...
fault virtual address = 0xeb902
trap number = 12

google shows this issue seems to be related to systems with the sis 630 chipset, which 
is what my laptop has. if i was able to install 4.x, i figure its probably possible 
with 5.x too, i just need to figure out the proper device hints.

thanks and please cc me, im not currently on the mailing list.

Configuring Samba for Printing on WinXP Machine

2004-05-13 Thread Richard Liang

Hi,

I recently went through all of this with a Windows 2000 machine; I ended up
doing it using Samba and CUPS. Apparently there are ways to do it using lpd
and apsfilter, but I think using CUPS is the cleanest solution.

Configuring Samba won't be too bad if you're only going to be accessing
other shares, rather than setting up shares on the FreeBSD box. In that
case, not very much configuration is needed; only the smbclient and smbspool
programs (these are the client programs that access other shares). Get
familiar with SWAT; it's a real nice tool and makes configuring Samba mostly
painless. Using SWAT, you can change the workgroup name that you want the
FreeBSD box to access, and the NetBIOS name of the FreeBSD box. Note that
if you do want to set up Samba shares on your FreeBSD box, you'll need to
set Encrypt Passwords to yes and use smbpasswd to maintain Samba's set of
username/passwords that allow Windows users to access the FreeBSD shares.

First, make sure it works by generating a file that is ready to be sent
direct to your printer. By that I mean a file in your printer's native
raster format. You can do this using ghostscript and a postscript file (or,
if your printer is already postscript, you can just send the postscript file
directly). Use smbclient to do this. If it works, then your Samba
configuration is good enough.

Next, you will need to create a symlink to the smbspool program in
/usr/local/libexec/backend (this is where CUPS keeps all of the transport
programs it uses to deliver jobs to the printers). Once this is done, use
the CUPS tools to add a Windows network printer using Samba. It will ask
for the name of the printer, and prompt you with smb:. This is the name
of the printer share. In my experience you will also need to provide a
username/password to CUPS in the name; this is the user account which all
the printing will be done under. I used the Guest account so that I
wouldn't have my password in a file (albeit an unreadable file). In any
case then the full name you will have to put here is something like
smb://username:password@Windows machine name/printer share name
(Type smbclient -L Windows machine name to find all the available shares
on this machine, using the -U option if your username is different on the
FreeBSD and Windows boxes.)

From there you should be scot free from the parts concerning Samba.
Potential gotchas:
1) if your printer is not natively supported by CUPS' drivers, you can use
foomatic-db and foomatic-db-engine to generate a driver for your printer.
Follow the documentation on www.linuxprinting.org to get the printing going
in this scenario; note you will need to install the foomatic-rip script
yourself (I couldn't find it in ports).

2) If you set up shares on your FreeBSD box, make sure you don't have LDAP
support enabled when you compile. I did by accident and it kept me from
administering the Samba password file.

Another neat printing solution I found online, using only lpd, is outlined
on this website:
http://www.freebsddiary.org/samba.php
It involves printing to a dummy fifo, then using smbspool to send the
contents of the fifo to the printer.

Hope this helps,

Richard
