Re: Good networking books for a beginner?
Somewhere I seem to recall having read an RFC which is a primer on IP basics. I remember especially liking the sections where it described the the inter-relationships between the network mask, the role that ARP plays, and the use of routing. Darned if I can find such a thing now, though. If anyone knows what this was, I'd appreciate a pointer. The plain-text, Courier-font layout sticks in my head, which is what makes me think it was an RFC that I saw, put I can't find it in a brief search on rfcs.org.

Your laptop doesn't phone home unless you configure it to - if it had windows maybe call Microsoft, I've heard their computers contact M$ on a regular basis. If you before hand had installed some tool that calls home then it would be possible to track it by the ip and possibly routing information it uses when it calls. But that's too late now.

The stand-alone machine does not have connection to the internet; however, I do have a set of four (4)CD from the FreeBSD Mall and two (2) of the CD's have 'ports' on them. I would like to select one, two or three ports to install on this machine ... to go through the steps and experience of the ports process using the cdroms, so ... in essence I'm looking for suggestions of ports of a small nature (if there is such a thing). I'm not sure how familiar you are with Unis operating systems or the various tools available for all of it's incarnations, so, I'm listing these with info as if you were completely new to it. If you are not, I do not mean any insult or offense, I just don't know your level of experience, so I'm going for something relatively low that would give you a wide range of sights and sounds in the desktop *nix world. If you aren't /that/ new, just look at my list, and pick and choose your favorites. Ideally, you would want to install ports that you could make use of more than ports that are small. Even the larges ports rarely cause me issues. For small starts: bash - already suggested, very good shell nano - light weight and useful text editor pico - like nano, but made before or after, can't remember which vim - again, already suggested, good text editor, though not to my taste. It is lightweight and fast, though not to the extent of pico/nano. sudoku - I prefer pencil and paper because you can make notes, but it's fun naim - a console IM program intermediate projects: emacs - another popular editor, the largest (in size, not popularity - don't know what is the most popular) of the bunch, but I know people who get a lot of work done only starting one program *ever*, this is that program. It uses a large amount of resources for just a text editor, but you can do a lot more with it, and on a modern machine, that large amount is still relatively neglegable. xorg - an X (graphics) server, which will be extremely useful if you want more than a console command prompt. gaim - a multi-im client. quite useful, it could actually be in small projects, but you need X installed before hand. gnome - this is between intermediate and larger projects, a good and popular desktop/session manager, again, not to my taste, for as much smaller as it is, it runs slower than KDE on my systems. Nonetheless, a lot of people like it, and you should give it a try. * - Just about anything in the games directory Big projects KDE - like gnome, but more friendly to the people who like gui configuration, less friendly to those who like text configuration. I find it faster, but that could be because I have a lot of memory on all my machines - it's definetly larger. Might be the whole space for speed tradeoff that you can sometimes do, I don't know. Regardless, be prepared for a challange, you may not (read: probably won't) be able to get the full KDE running due to some apps not compiling. Read the updating file, and you may have to try kde-lite. openoffice.org-2.0 - a nice office suit, be prepared for a challange! Now, you may need a few java packages that won't be on the CDs for this - which you'll have to download elsewhere and put on either a CD or a flash drive.

following RELENG_6_1
I have a bunch of servers running FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE. They perform crucial tasks like Samba domain control, LDAP directory, mail, etc... Though I'm reluctant to touch them I feel that the recent Security Advisories (especially about ssh ans ssl) are a very good reason to follow RELENG_6_1. I'd be grateful if someone could answer the following questions. Is it possible that an upgrade might break software installed from the port? I'm planning to use a build machine as explained in Tracking for Multiple Machines http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/small-lan.html What are the alternatives? Is there an easiest yet safe way to go? I was interested by /usr/ports/security/freebsd-update but some of my kernels have options QUOTA so I guess it rules out freebsd-update. Quoting FreeBSD-SA-06:23.openssl NOTE: Any third-party applications, including those installed from the FreeBSD ports collection, which are statically linked to libcrypto(3) should be recompiled in order to use the corrected code. How can I find the applications which fall in this category?

I get the menu 'Welcome to FreeBSD'; after pressing 1 (boot FreeBSD default) the system halts with '/boot/kernel/acpi.ko text=0x43670 data=0x23c0+0x10f0 syms=[0x4+0x7ba+0x4+0xa828] We tried acessing thru live cdrom whilst mounting the partition, but that does not work. Any suggestions how to get the system pass booting again?

Any clues if a system like this is a already coded and out there somewhere? Take a look at security/doorman or security/knock, both of which might fit the bill. Hi there, I have really specific needs and wondering if somebody has written a port knocker out there already that fits the criteria of what I am looking for. Portknocker capabilities: 1) User needs to telnet to specific port and/or log into a website. 2) Learns the IP address that the user is coming from in step 1. 3) Opens ssh port to specifically to the IP address grabbed in step 1 but also keeps ssh port open to statically defined IPs in /etc/rc.firewall . 4) As soon as the user disconnects from the ssh port the IP address in step 1 no longer can access the ssh port unless they log back in like the procedure in step 1. I reviewed two programs doorman and knock (found in FreeBSD /usr/ports/security) Doorman Review: I am unable to figure out how to configure the ability to capture the IP address of where the UDP packet was sent. Therefore this program does not completely match what I am looking for, or I do not understanding how to configure it. Knock Review: This is nice but still requires closing the port as a step when done. It would be nice to automatically close the ssh port when the user disconnects from the ssh port. Also I am not clear but I don't think there is a way to grab the source IP address, right? Anybody know of other programs I could check out?

POE networking, what's the range?
This isn't really a FreeBSD-specific question but does anyone know the range of Power Over Ethernet? I want something to go from my house to my garage apartment then hook a wireless access point in to the POE box. The garage and the house are on their own power circuit but where the lines split is in between the house and the garage. I'm thinking it'll be around 600ft plus all the wiring in the house and garage. I'm kinda hesitant to buy one and try it before I *think* it may work.

It's required by Intel's choice of licence for the firmware for that wireless NIC. Where did you find that in the man-pages? Not permitting the firmware to be redistributed has nothing to do with the FCC, however. No, firmware redistribution is ENTIRELY up to Intel. I want the firmware to be available under a BSD or ISC licence, just as with Ralink. Intel's firmware is already available, but under a different licence. Where does the FCC say that Intel must distribute firmware under a non-OSS-friendly licence? It doesn't. However, most licences allow derivative works to be created outside of Intel's control. If one of these derivative work allows the device to be used in a manner that violates FCC rules and regulations, Intel remains liable because they a) the provider of the hardware device in question and b) the provider of the initial software (that spawned the derivative work) As I see it, no matter what Intel does, a) and b) will always be the case -- reverse-engineering efforts still have to use Intel's original software to produce any viable results. I.e. by extending your argument slightly further, Intel is screwed anyway. There is nothing stopping Intel from releasing the firmware, except for the legal fear that the FCC will hold them accountable for illegal acts performed with their device. Even if the original document does not allow one to distribute derivative works, anyone can still post complicated instructions on modifying Intel's binaries such that the device violates the law. I strongly doubt FCC would hold Intel accountable if any user follows those complicated instructions, as it's almost impossible for Intel to control those kind of things. Intel should not write their own law, they should just make sure that customers are unlikely to disrespect FCCs laws. FCC laws, on the other hand, never say that manufacturers have to keep completely secret anything about their wireless devices. Distributing the very same firmware that already available under another licence doesn't have anything to do with one's ability to respect or disrespect the FCC laws. Put it the other way around -- if Intel doesn't distribute the firmware on terms acceptable to the end user, then it basically _forces_ the user to come up with their own firmware, or use some alternative firmwares. And what if alternative firmwares violate FCC? Then who's fault is that? It is now clearly Intel's fault, because they've made it legally difficult for the user to use the original Intel firmware. I.e. Intel is better off distributing the firmware under a BSD or ISC licence, unless it wants problems with their devices with the FCC.

Yes, Chuck, some part is indeed unclear to me, precisely the part that explains why does one have to go into that much trouble to have a working system. That was explained below. You might not like the reasons, or agree with them, but your claim that the FreeBSD manpages do not say anything about the need for firmware is obviously mistaken. How is the claim obviously mistaken if the man-page DO NOT say what's the reason that the firmware must be downloaded from a web-site? There's no need to be curious about the matter; the Intel Pro Wireless adaptors, like many other brands of wireless adaptors, use a software-controlled radio which is capable of broadcasting at higher power levels and/or at frequencies outside of those allocated for 802.11 connectivity for specific regulatory domains. The US FCC, along with other regulatory agencies in Europe such as ETSI and elsewhere, require that end-users not have completely open access to these radios to prevent problems from deliberate misuse such as interference with other frequency bands. Yes, regulatory bodies, of cause, table specific requirements that must be satisfied by systems that utilise RF, i.e. the manufacturer must make reasonable attempt to prevent users from using non-permitted frequencies. Not permitting the firmware to be redistributed has nothing to do with the FCC, however. That's right. Intel permits you to redistribute their firmware under the terms of their license. This isn't a matter of choice on Intel's part; if you want this situation to change, you're going to have to obtain changes in the radio-frequency laws and policies in the US and a number of other countries first. No, firmware redistribution is ENTIRELY up to Intel. I want the firmware to be available under a BSD or ISC licence, just as with Ralink. Intel's firmware is already available, but under a different licence. Where does the FCC say that Intel must distribute firmware under a non-OSS-friendly licence? The BSD license and all other OSS-friendly licenses permit the user to modify the software and redistribute that modified version as a derivative work. A modified version of the firmware has not received FCC certification-- see Title 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Chapter I, section 15 in general, and specificly: http://www.access.gpo.gov/nara/cfr/waisidx_05/47cfr15_05.html Sec. 15.21 Information to user. The users manual or instruction manual for an intentional or unintentional radiator shall caution the user that changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. Right, this means a notice on the device or supporting documentation. It does not require a legal term in the firmware's licence. Sec. 15.202 Certified operating frequency range. Client devices that operate in a master/client network may be certified if they have the capability of operating outside permissible part 15 frequency bands, provided they operate on only permissible part 15 frequencies under the control of the master device with which they communicate. Master devices marketed within the United States must be limited to operation on permissible part 15 frequencies. Client devices that can also act as master devices must meet the requirements of a master device. Also see: http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/consumerfacts/unauthorizedradio.html Section 301 of the Communications Act of 1934 prohibits the use or operation of any apparatus for the transmission of energy or communications or signals by radio without a license issued by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Thus, generally, in order to use or operate a radio station, the Communications Act requires that you first obtain a license by the FCC. However, there are certain limited exceptions. For example, the FCC has provided blanket authorization to operators of Citizens Band (CB) radios, radio control stations, domestic ship and aircraft radios and certain other types of devices. This blanket authorization means that operators of these radio facilities are not required to have individual station licenses. Operators are required to operate their

ACPI/Xorg bug

Yes, I know this is not mains power, but hazards exist with signal wiring as well. I don't know the numbers either, but you should let him know the basic facts of the Ethernet environment: it's not power limited, it's TIME limited. The signal power goes down at a relatively low rate over distance, but the time that the ethernet signal takes to transit, that's a key limiter. You see, Ethernet is a protocol that relies on a bunch of time-relationships, both to support stuff like direct error control, but of most importance, in supporting the detection of collision occurrence (Ethernet allows signal collisions by being VERY good at detecting and handling such items). The way you figure limitations on ethernet is, you get tables of how fast your signal propagates over the cable you've chosen, and see if your cable allows your signal to get that far in that much time. It's the time that's key. If (now that I've probably embarrassed some of the walking encyclopedias we have around here) you come up with the kind of cable you have, we could very easily look into a table and tell you how much your setup will allow you. If you don't get an answer by tomorrow, I think I could probably find it here somewhere, with enough of a lookup. Don't bother the fellows with power numbers, that will only confuse the issue, believe me, power has nothing to do with it.

Network dies after a while with high torrent load
Hi This is the second time i've posted this to the list and explaining why will also explain some of the background for the problem. The last time i was having these problems was when i was downloading a certain thing each week using torrent, rtorrent running as a user. I stopped doing this for a while this summer but now i'm at it again and the problem is back. I think it's because this particular torrent has a lot of seeds and transfers a lot of data, very fast to me. I'm limited to 10Mbit/s here at home and ifstat -b reports over 1 constantly for a while before my network just dies and no data at all gets sent. At this point i can fix the problem by running dhclient on my network card again. During one transfer of around 300MB i had to run dhclient at least 15 times. I have a IBM ThinkPad R40 laptop with a Intel Pro 10/100 ethernet card using the fxp driver. Right now i'm running 6.1-RELEASE but i've been running FreeBSD on this laptop since i had 4.9-RELEASE. I can recreate the problem anytime i find a torrent that has enough seeds so that i can maintain the maximum speed for 10-15 seconds. The time it takes for my network to die is very random. Sometimes my net doesn't die at all if the torrent can't maintain over 1bit/s, it only has to drop once in ifstat for the network to handle it. I'm about to call my ISP and complain because i doubt this is a FreeBSD problem but i would like to have some confirmation from others on the list that it is possible to transfer 10 or more Mbit/s with much torrent traffic using the fxp driver in FreeBSD. Another reason i suspect something with my ISP is the fact that it dies at the speed i pay them for, it could be some error in the equipment they use to cap my bandwidth. I have no messages to show and i'm afraid i forgot to check ifconfig while the network was down but ifstat which is running constantly in a small window on my desktop reports 0.00 in and out while the network is down. -- Med vänliga hälsningar Stefan Midjich aka nocturnal [Swehack] http://swehack.se ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: POE networking, what's the range?
On 10/7/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: ... does anyone know the range of Power Over Ethernet? I want something to go from my house to my garage apartment then hook a wireless access point in to the POE box. The garage and the house are on their own power circuit but where the lines split is in between the house and the garage. I'm thinking it'll be around 600ft plus all the wiring in the house and garage. The garage and the house are over 1/10 of a mile apart? yeah. it's not a car garage. If your garage has power, why not just plug the access point into an outlet in the garage instead of pulling power all the way from the house? There can be some significant safety issues in stringing copper between buildings, especially over significant distances and if the building grounds are not interbonded. I'd encourage the O.P. to first consult a local electrical inspector, or an electrician who is familiar with the local conditions and safety codes. Yes, I know this is not mains power, but hazards exist with signal wiring as well. I don't plan to string cable at all. Cable is already in place for all the electric stuff. One alternative would be to track down a couple of fiber adapters, and string (non-conductive) fiber instead of copper. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: POE networking, what's the range?
The garage and the house are over 1/10 of a mile apart? yeah. it's not a car garage. ... I don't plan to string cable at all. Cable is already in place for all the electric stuff. IOW the cat5 between the buildings is already in place? In that case, and supposing whoever put it in knew what s/he was doing, the safety issues should have been taken care of. There's still the matter of the 100m distance spec, but as others have mentioned that is not a hard and fast rule in practice. I have personally seen 10Base-2 (RG58 coax) work very well on a segment that was well over twice the 200m maximum length specified for that technology. If 10/100Base-T are equally robust, you might get by with a 200m run (esp. if you run only 10Mb over cat5, which is capable of handling 100Mb, and/or if nothing else in the same collision domain has anywhere near a maximum-length run). I would guess that POE might still have problems, separate from the Ethernet signal-distance limits, due to power loss in the wiring. The POE-powered device would likely have been designed to allow for the loss in 100m of the cat 5 pair that's being used to supply the power. You've got about twice that distance, thus about twice the voltage drop at any given current consumption. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Using portconf and /usr/local/etc/ports.conf
I am trying to migrate my /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf into
/usr/local/etc/ports.conf. I'm not sure I have the ports.conf
syntax correct, or that the entries I'm making are being
recognized.
I've installed the sysutils/portconf port successfully, and
my make.conf is:
monitor : /root# cat /etc/make.conf
CPUTYPE?=p3
NO_PROFILE= true
USA_RESIDENT=YES
# 2005-12-19 to build sendmail without IPv6

# Begin portconf settings
# Do not touch these lines
.if !empty(.CURDIR:M/usr/ports*) exists(/usr/local/libexec/portconf)
_PORTCONF!=/usr/local/libexec/portconf
.for i in ${_PORTCONF:S/|/ /g}
${i:S/%/ /g}
.endfor
.endif
# End portconf settings
I have this line in /usr/local/etc/ports.conf for ruby18:

=== Cleaning for ruby-1.8.5_1,1
I then get the build options dialogue box for ruby 1.8.5_1,1 with the
tick boxes for IPV6 and RDOC checked, even though I have ports.conf
entries to turn them off.
Is this my goof, or is something wrong with portconf?
Thank you!

new pango screwing up my x11
hi all i just wanted to install gaim. did update the ports and then went on to install gaim wich installed a new pango that toally f-ed up my x. now i can not use it anymore. sorg starts and then when it comes to fire up gnome xorg crashes with some thread errors. i think the issue is the new pango libraries installed because gnome-session was looking for the old ones - i linked the new ones to the old names but i get the thread error. it sucks when new software is not backward compatible. my system is 6 release and it was running nicely before the f-ing pang screwd the whole thing up. i'm not interested right now in upgrading all the gnome and all the applications on top of it so i was wondering if i remove the new pango and install the old from the 6 iso disks would that make my life easier instead of upgrading gnome? because if all this crap i have to use lynx to send this mail.. thanks ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
