Re: PPPoE equivalent?
hi, I'm not sure there is, I've had a similar problem like this before, and I got around it by writing a simple script that would try and ping a local site 4 times, and if no responses got back it would killall ppp and delete the default routes and tell ppp to reconnect. It worked quite well when put into cron to run at 1 minute intervals. i'm getting all this set up as well, and following this thread ... (1) are not ppp.linkup ppp.linkdown supposed to be the 'place' to deal with this? (2) could you share your simple script? thanks! ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Outage on FreeBSD 6.1 / dell sc 1425
Hello list, I've some problems with two dell sc1425, using two u320 scsi hardisks, freebsd 6.1, gmirror raid1 mounted at /, a dual core xeon 3.2ghz: - the production server started to get really really slow last week and started to print those [0] messages to dmesg - after I rebooted that server it seemed to work normally - yesterday it freezed or was extremly slow: * no services via tcp where reachable * it was still reachable via icmp * it was *not* possible to login via console * it was possible to switch virtual consoles * after rebooting it, it hung in the fsck, which did not print any status messages * we rebooted it in single user mode, where we could see the fsck doing its work * we rebooted it then again in normal mode and after short time for fsck it is up and running again I am wondering whether this is a hardware or software problem. The system is a heavily used mailserver offering imap(s)/pop3(s)/smtp(s)/webmail. I am currently somehow deterred to continue using this server, so any hint how to debug this issue are appreciated.

My problem is that using the modem to connect to my isp, I can not get fetchmail, rsh, rlogin, or ftp to work. They all start just fine and then hang. I have to kill the user1 to get the tty1 back. I set this new box (6.2) up with a network connection to my old box (4.2) as a gateway. When the 4.2 box connects to the isp, I can use rsh, rlogin, fetchmail from the new box using the old box as the connection. This implies there is something wrong with the new box serial connection to my isp. However, from the new box (6.2) after starting the dial up connection on the serial port, I can use telnet to get to the isp shell account. What is the difference between how rsh uses the various ip/tcp protocols and how telnet? Sounds like a routing problem to me, i,e., your ISP is part of a local network connection (so you can telnet to it) but your ISP's gateway is not set as a default route on the 6.2 box like it is on the 4.2 box. HTH, Steve Thanks for the response. Sorry about my long delayed response. I worked most of Saturday playing around with ppp and various options in rc.conf trying to narrow the problem down to some kind of route problem. In the process I did find some routing problems and fixed them. But there was no improvement in the failure to keep an rsh or ftp session going over a serial port connection with my isp. I am going to start another thread under the title ``sio problems?'' and try to figure out what's wrong with my serial port. I suspect while sio4 works enough to start a link with my isp, it somehow fails at some point. I think the problem is the serial port configuration. I suspect the swap during bootup sio0 - sio4 is the heart of the problem. With that in mind, I think you are right about a routing problem in the sense that the mapping of physical serial device (modem) to its virtual serial device (sio0 - sio4) is mixed up somehow and that in turn creats the effect of a routing problem. Even if a fixed serial port system doesn't help, at least it will be one more problem fixed.

This is normal. FreeBSD does not automatically start a GUI environment by default. It is command line oriented. You need to install and configure your choice of GUI environment. They are all based on the X-windows system. First you install and configure X-Windows. In FreeBSD that would now be the system called Xorg. The installation gives you an opportunity to install X right when the system is installed. You should select that. But, then after installation, it still need configuring to match your Graphics card and monitor, etc. Check the handbook for detailed instructions. Then you install and start up a X-Windows manager. There are several of them to choose from. It depends on how you want to work and what you are doing.Gnome and KDE are popular amongst people who want something like an MS Windows or MAC-ish environment. Those are too overblown for me since I mostly use a bunch of Xterm windows and only occasionally something as graphic as a web browser. I use Afterstep which gives an environment somewhat reminiscent of the old NextStep system on NeXt computers. Other popular window managers are Xfce and Fluxbox.All are in ports at /usr/ports/x11-wm/ When you configure your window manager, you can also configure it to start certain things when it first comes up. I automatically start certain X-terms for specific work and remote logins I need most often, for example. The last thing you need to do is configure how you will start the window manager. Usually you make it the one that will begin when you enter the 'startx' on the command line, but it can be set up to launch upon login if you want. You might not want that, though because then it would always start on login and could get in the way of some debugging other other system work. That can be set up on a per-user basis. All this is covered in the manuals. The configuration of X and the setup of the window managers could be a little better covered. Some trial and error may be in order. jerry sorry aboyut my english, but im swedish. =) mikael _ Fräscha middagstips på MSN http://arla.msn.se/ ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hot to configure simple mail forwarder?
Hi everyone, I have what I hope is a rather simple question. I'm not very familiar with this area of system administration, so hopefully someone here can point me in the right direction. I just got myself a FreeBSD VPS to host a few of my websites. I need the processes on the server (PHP, for example) to be able to send e-mail via /usr/sbin/sendmail. The thing is that I don't actually want to run a mail server. My vps is severely limited on disk space, and any mail I get I'll forward to my gmail account anyway. I can obviously configure sendmail or postfix to do this for me, but this seems a bit excessive for what I'm trying to do. The mail load will be very light, and I'd prefer to conserve disk space. Is there a port, perhaps, that will simply forward all mail transmitted to /usr/sbin/sendmail to the destination SMTP server? The only other thing it has to be able to do is use the aliases file to determine the real e-mail of root, for example. Like I said, I'm not too familiar with setting up mail servers, so if this makes no sense to you please suggest an alternative. Just to recap, I don't need local mail storage and I don't need the server to accept mail from anything other than the local processes running on the server. Just need it to read the destination e-mail address (or get it via aliases), connect to the MX server for that domain, and transmit the message. If there isn't any simple daemon that will do this, can you recommend either how to configure sendmail or something like postfix to do this? The idea is to minimize resource usage (disk space, memory, cpu time).

Well I need sendmail running for that correct? Right now I've got it disabled with sendmail_enable=NONE in my rc.conf. I was hoping to use something a bit less resource intensive, and with a better security history. I am not really at all familiar with sendmail. I tried figuring out how to configure and tune it properly in the past, and realized that I have neither the time or patience for that task. I know that it will probably work the way it comes by default with FreeBSD, but I really don't like running daemons that I don't understand or don't know how to configure and monitor. If this is the most efficient solution to my problem, then I guess I'll head over to the handbook and try to figure sendmail out. If you have other suggestions, by all means, let me know. Otherwise, are there at least parts of sendmail that I can disable? P.S.

Can't get openssh-portable to use PAM
Hi all, I'm using security/openssh-portable to provide chroot-ssh, but would now also like to enable PAM for SSH so that I can take advantage of OPIE in certain scenarios. I've compiled openssh-portable with the PAM option (and something PAM-related flashes by during 'configure'), and have ChallengeResponseAuthentication and UsePAM set. When I run sshd in debug mode however, it claims that UsePAM is an unsupported option. I'm running /usr/sbin/sshd; I have overwrite-base enabled for openssh-portable. The machine is running FreeBSD 6.2.

Any hints appreciated. -- Best regards, Ghirai. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

And other errors saying that my network card isn't configured. I checked /etc/rc.conf and the lines for ifconfig are still in there...

Experience and thoughts on updating all ports (was Updating all ports)
I just upgraded my laptop from kde 3.5.1 taking a shot at using portupgrade and/or portmanager. From my previous experience portupgrade has been greatly enhanced/simplified. portmanager builds a database that gives a great status report and identifies orphaned port/packages. IMO these packages compliment one another. The problems with these tools are largely (I think) not of their own making. They depend on the ports tree and/or packages to accurately define requirements and dependencies. OpenOffice, to name one package, does not do this. Further, if you run kde (and probably any other comparable desktop), the interactions of dependencies are hopelessly complex. If you do not stay 'reasonably' current, using these tools (even as good as they are now) is much more complex and takes longer that simply clearing things out and starting over. The PC-BSD project seems to address this issue by picking a working set of ports. In my case I upgrade when a have a spare moment or when kde is around a year old. I decided I would install and look at port manager first, mostly because of my previous (and outdated) experience with portupgrade. portmanager currently does not allow (or attempt) to use packages, so I also installed portupgrade. My plan of attack was to remove kde and OpenOffice and try to upgrade the remaining ports/packages. My next step was to use portmanager to remove the orphaned (leaf) ports. This is not a good plan because this does not (necessarily) yield the set of ports that the kde package requires, and some of the leaf ports were both up-to-date and later required. Currently my laptop has nothing on it except kde 3.5.6, openopenoffice 2.2.0 and gaim. This requires something in excess of 200 ports. Starting from a base more than a year out of date, the upgrade tools did not have a chance to work (easily). I ended up with 2.5 days of building and required a second pass to clean up some dependencies. I then installed the kde package and had to uninstall one or two ports because dependency conflicts. OpenOffice installed with no issues other than the package from the OpenOffice site did not require its dependencies all of which I had erroneously removed as leafs. For some, the above is a bit complex (if not daunting) and I certainly do not have enough resources to build kde and OpenOffice from scratch. that process would add at least a week to the time I spent building. For a desktop system either constructed from packages or that has not been updated for several months, I think a viable alternative is to clear things out and install from packages starting with your desktop. This takes about two hours after you are familiar with the process and assumes using twm which is built into Xorg. If Xorg needs updating that must be done from the console. Xorg takes just a few minutes if a current version is available on cdrom. Using portupgrade with the noexecute option will give a sense of how complex upgrading will be. In some cases I still find starting over to be a viable and easier option to portupgrade/portmanager. To me it has the advantage over PC-BSD of having a more current set of applications. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

configuring nis
Hi, I have been having some trouble with getting NIS working on my freebsd server. Mainly because I have never before used this. I now have it working, but there is an odd inconsistency which I don't know how to remove/update. I changed the gid of a user with: 'pw usermod -n sam -g 1000', but this change is not reflected in the yp maps. I did recreate the maps again with 'ypinit -m', but I guess that was not the trick I needed to update the maps. So, now when I run 'ypcat passwd', I see something like this: sam:*:1000:1001:Sam Genter:/home/sam:/usr/local/bin/bash while I also see this: 'id sam' uid=1000(sam) gid=1000(sam) groups=1000(sam), 100(users) The difference is thus the gid. I can find information about updating/pushing the maps onto slave servers, but not about getting changes into the maps on the sole nis server I have.

[long] panic: corrupt spinlock
(This is happening on a -CURRENT box. Before I bother the folks there, hopefully someone can see what I screwed up.) Attempting to update from -CURRENT/nid-March to -CURRENT/today (sources updated at midnight EST), the buildworld, buildkernel, and installkernel phases are sucessful. (buildworld log available on request) However: upon reboot the kernel panics and drops into KDB. (Whereupon the console freezes ... but that's an old problem.) The specific context: kbd0 at ukbd0 panic: corrupt spinlock KDB: enter: panic [threat pid 0 tid 0] stopped at kdb_enter+0x32: leave db There's nothing in the logs or in dmesg.today. loader.conf, an old dmesg for the exact same hardware configuration, and the kernel config file are appended. (In that order.) Any ideas?

I then started working my way through configuring the various newly installed things.

Sendmail ignores hosts.allow
Hello, I'm trying to restrict access to sendmail via hosts.allow. Don't need a firewall, since I just want to block everyone but the localhost from sending e-mail out. Anyway, it seems that sendmail ignores these settings even though it was compiled with TCPWRAPPERS. I added sendmail : all : deny as the very first line in hosts.allow, just to see if it will let me connect from anywhere. It does - not just from localhost, but from all remote locations as well. I have no problems connecting and sending e-mail. Am I missing something? I tested the same setup with sshd, and that works properly. After a quick search on google it seems that I'm not the only one with this problem, but I couldn't find any solution to this.

How to retrieve the list of files to merge by hand
Hi, I just upgraded my box here at home last night and I made a little mistake (fortunately, not one large enough to keep things from working). I updated my source tree to 6.2-RELEASE-p4 and did the make buildworld and make buildkernel. Then I dropped to single user mode to do the installs for both. At the end, as per some instructions from a friend, I did mergemaster -i -a. At the end was quite a long list of files left for me to merge by hand. This was actually a surprise to me because I'd updated two boxes at work earlier in the week and the largest number of file to update by hand was only 2. At any rate, because I was in single user mode, and hadn't started mergemaster with something like, mergemaster -i -a | tee merge.output or something (that's the small mistake that won't happen again), I don't have the list of files to merge. At any rate, with exception to rc.conf and /etc/ttys, I haven't modified anything the system uses anyway. Is there a way of retrieving this list? As a side note, in an effort to get this list (via a pipe command such as the one above), I reran the mergemaster command, but got a much different set of results. Did I completely eliminate any chance I had at getting them?

Run this on your host: # sockstat -4l | grep sendmail The output should look like this: root sendmail 1624 4 tcp4 1.2.3.5:25*:* root sendmail 1624 4 tcp4 1.2.3.4:25*:* root sendmail 1624 4 tcp4 1.2.3.3:25*:* root sendmail 1624 4 tcp4 1.2.3.2:25*:* root sendmail 1208 3 tcp4 127.0.0.1:25 *:* The first four are jails. The last one is host's sendmail being disabled. I'd suggest using a firewall to protect your jails instead of trying to completely disable sendmails.

Not the case for me, having sendmail_enable=NO and not having it in rc.conf results in the same behavior. Here's sendmail rcvar output: Same behaviour because sendmail_enable=NO is already present in /etc/defaults/rc.conf so putting in /etc/rc.conf or removing it from there is the same thing. Without sendmail_enable in rc.conf: # sendmail $sendmail_enable=NO # sendmail_submit $sendmail_submit_enable=YES # sendmail_clientmqueue $sendmail_msp_queue_enable=YES With sendmail_enable=NO: # sendmail $sendmail_enable=NO # sendmail_submit $sendmail_submit_enable=YES # sendmail_clientmqueue $sendmail_msp_queue_enable=YES With sendmail_enable=NONE: # sendmail $sendmail_enable=NO # sendmail_clientmqueue $sendmail_msp_queue_enable=NO So the first two are identical (I don't see why they wouldn't be).

xorg 7.2 start problem
Hi everybody, To upgrade xorg, I followed the procedure described in the /usr/ports/UPDATING file. The build went smooth, without any build errors. At the merge step, the script complained about mime.info files, so I made backup copy of those and deleted the duplicates. But after reboot I cannot start X. On that machine, I use xfce4. When I issue startxfce4, I receive messages that modules kbd, mouse, and mga haven't been found. During the build I didn't see any errors; presumably, it's a configuration error. Could you advise me on where I should look for an error? It's i386 machine, with 6.2 stable. The Xorg.0.log file is enclosed. Errors are at the end pf the file. Thank you very much in advance!

Re: How to retrieve the list of files to merge by hand
Andrew Falanga wrote: Hi, I just upgraded my box here at home last night and I made a little mistake (fortunately, not one large enough to keep things from working). I updated my source tree to 6.2-RELEASE-p4 and did the make buildworld and make buildkernel. Then I dropped to single user mode to do the installs for both. At the end, as per some instructions from a friend, I did mergemaster -i -a. At the end was quite a long list of files left for me to merge by hand. This was actually a surprise to me because I'd updated two boxes at work earlier in the week and the largest number of file to update by hand was only 2. At any rate, because I was in single user mode, and hadn't started mergemaster with something like, mergemaster -i -a | tee merge.output or something (that's the small mistake that won't happen again), I don't have the list of files to merge. At any rate, with exception to rc.conf and /etc/ttys, I haven't modified anything the system uses anyway. Is there a way of retrieving this list? As a side note, in an effort to get this list (via a pipe command such as the one above), I reran the mergemaster command, but got a much different set of results. Did I completely eliminate any chance I had at getting them? Just run mergemaster again: # cd /usr/src # mergemaster That should do it.

Re: xorg 7.2 start problem
On Mon, May 21, 2007 at 06:23:29PM -0700, Andriy Babiy wrote: Hi everybody, To upgrade xorg, I followed the procedure described in the /usr/ports/UPDATING file. The build went smooth, without any build errors. At the merge step, the script complained about mime.info files, so I made backup copy of those and deleted the duplicates. But after reboot I cannot start X. On that machine, I use xfce4. When I issue startxfce4, I receive messages that modules kbd, mouse, and mga haven't been found. During the build I didn't see any errors; presumably, it's a configuration error. Could you advise me on where I should look for an error? It's i386 machine, with 6.2 stable. The Xorg.0.log file is enclosed. Errors are at the end pf the file. Thank you very much in advance! Hard to guess without the information requested in UPDATING, but it could be that you don't have the complete xorg installed (i.e. missing /usr/ports/x11/xorg).
