Massive upgrade after updating gnutls-1.4.5 port
I read in the UPDATING file:
###
gnutls has been updated to 1.6.1 and all shared libraries' versions
have been bumped. So you need to rebuild all applications that
depend on gnutls. Do something like:
portupgrade -rf gnutls
###
I run pkg_glob -r gnutls-1.4.5 and get 42 packages, including
k3b-0.12.17 and abiword-2.4.6 among other (I mentioned only
some of the biggest to build in my slow pentium III computer).
However, I have noticed that only a few ports depends directly on gnults
port (search for those ports which depends on gnutls but do not depend
on the rest of ports listed in /var/db/pkg/gnutls-1.4.5/+REQUIRED_BY,
see [1]). These ports are (in my system):
aMule-2.1.3
gconf2-2.16.0
gkrellm-2.2.10_1
gnome-icon-theme-2.16.1
gtkspell-2.0.11_4
k3b-i18n-0.12.17
ktorrent-2.0.3
libglade2-2.6.0_2
mplayer-0.99.10
pinentry-gtk2-0.7.2_5
sdl-1.2.11,2
tinyca-0.7.5
wxgtk2-common-2.6.3_1
xvid4conf-1.12
My aim is rebuild only the above ports, and ignore the others listed
in the output of pkg_glob -r gnutls-1.4.5. The question is: do you
think is my approach right, or shall I need to rebuild all the ports of
pkg_glob output?
For example, suppose libA depends on libB, and libB depends in turn on
libC. If version of libC changes, I need rebuild libB but, shall I need
to rebuild libA?

Waiting until the remote code execution security hole is plugged would seem to be a sensible thing: The Apple Security Team reports that there are multiple vulnerabilities within QuickTime (one of the plugins for win32-codecs). A remote attacker capable of creating a malicious SGI image, FlashPix, FLC movie, or a QuickTime movie can possibly lead to execution of arbitrary code or cause a Denial of Service (application crash). Users who have QuickTime (/win32-codecs) as a browser plugin may be vulnerable to remote code execution by visiting a website containing a malicious SGI image, FlashPix, FLC movie or a QuickTime movie. You can get mplayer installed safely by deselecting the quicktime codec during the installation process. To change it now, do the following: cd /usr/ports/multimedia/win32-codecs make config Then deselect quicktime from the menu and save your change.

IMHO learning a shell is the first step to using any **ix OS effectively. You can also use on-line resources but for me a book is bestchuckles David David system ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Realtek 3-port NIC driver not loading

How to copy hardlinks as hardlinks
HI all, I'm doing some backups with rsnapshot, and I want to copy those backups to a DVD. Although 'df' and 'du', shows that to total space used for it is less then the total capacity of the DVD disk (~ 3.5GB), growisofs/mkisofs are treating hardlinks as files (I know it is the idea, but...) so the amount of backup volume jumps to +20GB.

They do handle FAT16 and FAT32, no problem.So, if you want to shrink an NTFS filesystem and make it stay NTFS, you will have to buy a disk manager such as Partition Magic for around $70.

Advice on which FreeBSD firewall package to choose.
Before I start, I'm familiar with IPTables from Linux but am wanting to use FreeBSD as a firewalling router after seeing it in action on a heavily-loaded webserver. I like the efficiency of the TCP stack. Upon reading the handbook I found that I can have my choice of three firewalls; pf, iptables and ipfw. What would be the most useful (and easiest) package to use given the following scenario: A FreeBSD router comprising of four physical interfaces - Eth0 is the outside 10Mbyte/s cable connection to the Internet. Eth1 is a 100Mbit DMZ housing a webserver. Eth2 is a 100Mb DMZ housing a 802.11g Wireless Access Router. (My normal preference is to isolate Wireless LANs from physical LANS). Eth3 is the inside LAN. Software-based VPN connections out from both the Inside LAN and Wireless DMZ are required. (Allowing VPN tunnels through the firewall; not tunnels terminated at the firewall). Against prudence, they wish to allow torrent connections to the inside lan and ICQ connections to both the Inside LAN and the Wireless DMZ. The torrent and ICQ connections will need to be bandwidth-managed so that is a major consideration for the choice of which firewall to use. Is there an equivalent to HTB on FreeBSD? I look forward to your answers...

Re: Advice on which FreeBSD firewall package to choose.
I can't speak to the advantages or disadvantages of each of those options, but from other lists I get the sense the pf is the best option out there. If you want something quick to setup, pfSense and m0n0wall are prebuilt firewall packages based on FreeBSD that will do exactly what you're looking for. pfSense uses pf and ALTQ, m0n0wall uses ipfw and ipfilter. http://m0n0.ch/wall/ http://www.pfsense.com/ We use redundant 5-port pfSense boxes for our firewall - works quite well. -j On Fri, 2007-01-05 at 10:25 +1300, Brett Davidson wrote: Before I start, I'm familiar with IPTables from Linux but am wanting to use FreeBSD as a firewalling router after seeing it in action on a heavily-loaded webserver.

routing and networking help. (urgent help please)
Hello Gurus, This is an Urgent help, as everything pending, waiting.. a FreeBSD Solution. and I appologize if I will explain in details, please be patient with me. Just yesterday, our ISP installed 2 routers (both 3com) at our main office. One router acting for Datalink between the office and the branch (datarouter) One for the internet connection.(internet router) one short cable connected from the internet router to datalink router So everyone on the WAN has internet access which we donot want. So we decided to have our FreeBSD 6.1-R server, managing all the job. So I installed a FreeBSD box, with NATd enabled, this is how it works Internet router --- rl0 192.168.0.3 freebsd dc0 192.168.1.1 --- switch --- all clinets also a cat5 cable hookedup from the datalink router to the switch. So the switch having the clinets+datalink router + lan freebsd cable. The datalink router connected to the branch site also WAN. the internet router has the following configurations. IP 192.168.0.2 gateway 192.168.0.254 and the datalink configuration has the follow gateway 192.168.0.253 WAN (branch site) IPs of 192.168.2.xx gateway 192.168.0.254 ALL can ping each other and see each other..(if there is no freebsd server) also wan works perfectly.. with no FreeBSD server.. Here is the problem the problem when I configure my fbsd lan interface to 192.168.1.1 and my clinets will have the IP 192.168.1.x/24 with gateway 192.168.0.254 wthey will have the internet.. and will NOT see any datalink clients, nor will see the WAN on the branch site. (diffrences of IPs and gateways) because clinets directed to the fbsd server which regonize 192.168.0.254 (internet router) If I configure my clients behind fbsd nat server to IPs of 192.168.0.x/24 and gateway 192.168.0.253 (Insted of 192.168.1.x and gw 192.168.0.254) they will see the datalink and wan but no internet. How would I make all clinets have my fbsd lan ips 192.168.1.x/24 and freebsd will have the ability to see the two gateways 192.168.0.254 (internet router) and 192.168.0.253 (datalink router) In short words, all clinets should be connected to FreeBSD server lan interface but in the same time, freebsd will route and manage to the requests for wan. Second problem: If i have rl0 to host my internet router real IP and defautlrouter to the NAT ip, internet will not work. ifconfig_rl0=inet 62.215.x.6 netmask 255.255.255.252 defaultrouter=62.215.x.5 #internet router IP No Internet. but if i host my rl0 to 192.168.0.3 and defaultrouter to 192.168.0.254 (internet router gateway) internet will work... ifconfig_rl0=inet 192.168.0.3 netmask 255.255.255.0 defaultrouter=192.168.0.254 The first case, disabling nat from router and having it to freebsd only second case, having the router to NAT and again freebsd doing another nat.

Re: sparc64 and perl 5.8.8 port test failures?
I tried deleting the work subdirectory and doing both a 'make' and 'make WITHOUT_PERL_64BITINT=yes' but make test still fails the same way on both the pack and integer tests .. is it possible that there is some misconfiguration in my system that is confusing the configure script w.r.t. 64bitness of my machine ? I guess I could start mucking with the config.sh by hand but I'd rather figure out why the port just doesn't work as is. steve. - Original Message - From: David Landgren [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Steven D.

Step down into the build directory and delete these two files, and build again. Or, better yet, just delete the entire ./work directory, and build it again.
