First of all, bear in mind that a domain name may refer to a group of hosts (I'll call this a zone by analogy with BIND), or a single host (a FQDN). MASQUERADE_AS gives the FQDN to be used when masquerading. It is applied to the domain names of the local mail host only - so if the only change is on your mailserver to go from mailserver.example.com to example.com, this should be all you need. MASQUERADE_DOMAIN adds additional FQDNs to the list of domain names to be masqueraded - if you need to masquerade other hosts within your zone. FEATURE(`masquerade_entire_domain') switches MASQUERADE_DOMAIN to affect whole zones instead of FQDNs of single hosts. As I read cf/README, you need both these options to masquerade a whole zone, as well as the first option to specify what to masquerade as. The last of the five lines exempts some hosts from masquerading because they handle their own mail. Not doing this can cause some... interesting breakage.

Why opera bitches: ldd operapluginwrapper; ... libXThrStub.so.6 = not found (0x0) ... 3. Why it is missing: On OpenBSD, and on old FreeBSD, libc lacks pthread stubs. This is a problem because libX11 needs to support threading, but shouldn't cause all X programs to be linked against the threading library. The solution is libXThrStub (UIThrStubs.c), which provides weak symbols to stub threading functions, which are ignored if the application links against the thread library.

disabling boot output

Does anyone use something similar to Opsware to assist in managing their servers?

software raid 1 and recovery
I'm using software raid 1 on a 6.1 freebsd. This is a so called cold swap system, but I wonder how much it actually improves reliability. First off what should I be doing to detect error conditions and secondly what happens if the machine refuses to boot. I set this system up using Dru Lavigne's recipe, but I don't really understand what happens if one of the drives starts to fail.

The Complete FreeBSD: errata and addenda
The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page or any other online documentation. The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, The Complete FreeBSD, published by O'Reilly, is no exception. Inevitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The Complete FreeBSD has been through a total of five editions, including its predecessor Installing and Running FreeBSD. Two of these have been reprinted with corrections. I maintain a series of errata pages. Start at http://www.lemis.com/errata-4.html to find out how to get the errata information. Note also that the book has now been released for free download in PDF form. Instead of downloading the changed pages, you may prefer to download the entire book. See http://www.lemis.com/grog/Documentation/CFBSD/ for more information. Have you found a problem with the book, or maybe something confusing?

If you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your message: - You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate. - You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read. - You asked more than one unrelated question in one message. - You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone. - You sent out the same message more than once. - You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions. If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you will get more than one copy of this message from different people. Read on, and your next message will be more successful. This document is also available on the web at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html. = Contents: I:Introduction II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers? IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V:How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction === This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the newcomers), and also those who answer the questions (the hackers). Note that the term hacker has nothing to do with breaking into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is cracker, but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions == When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list! If you ever want to unsubscribe or change your options (eg, switch to or from digest mode, change your password, etc.), visit your subscription page at: http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/options/freebsd-questions/[EMAIL PROTECTED] (obviously, substitute your mail address for [EMAIL PROTECTED]). You can also make such adjustments via email by sending a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word 'help' in the subject or body (don't include the quotes), and you will get back a message with instructions. You must know your password to change your options (including changing the password, itself) or to unsubscribe. Normally, Mailman will remind you of your freebsd.org mailing list passwords once every month, although you can disable this if you prefer. This reminder will also include instructions on how to unsubscribe or change your account options. There is also a button on your options page that will email your current password to you. Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send how to questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Since then, I have changed it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If I were to try to remove [EMAIL PROTECTED] from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2.

Annoying FreeBSD 6.2 behavior - takedown of VNC sessions

Oddly enough, if he unplugs his VoIP box from his network, all this problem goes away and connection requests over ssh and port 22 are forwarded fine. With the VoIP box present, it doesn't work.

Log archiving question
Once upon a time I messed with FreeBSD rather frequently. Then
things changed. Time passed and I'm back to tinkering with
things a little, though mostly from the perspective of a Mac OS
X user. In that distant past, I found that rotating log files
in the classical manner - changing the number and dropping any
log needing another digit - did not preserve data that was
needed to work on some of the problems we were seeing. So, I
changed the way rotating was done to never delete the logs in
question, instead naming the archived file uniquely with a time
code. Here's an example of such a modification for Mac OS X
Jaguar (a bit out of date but I use it 24/7) to deal with its
equivalent of /var/log/messages. It's offered just to show the
nature of the results.

Since I recently set up a PCBSD 1.4.1 machine to play with, I
see that log rotation is no longer done with scripts but
rather with newsyslog. If I read the man page correctly,
newsyslog rotates the log files in the good old way though it
seems to have a much more comprehensive approach as to when to
do it.
I've had no difficulties with the change made on my Mac OS X
Jaguar system - if it affects something, the something is
something I apparently don't do. So, all that preamble brings
me to my question. Are there things that modifying the archived
log data file names would interfere with?

Re: disabling boot output
* Omer Faruk Sen [ Jan 4, 2008 (15:20 )]: How can I disable boot messages so user can't see any boot message. I think there is 4 part for that and each of them requires a different configuration file to be edited. 1) boot 2) loader 3) kernel message 4) init scripts Can anyone send me an URL that depicts those changes? Or at least where to look for them. I think 2,3,4 can be done with configuration files but 1 step requires some code change right? You can send the output to a serial port by putting console=comconsole into /boot/loader.conf. See http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ serialconsole-setup.html for details. çok selamlar arved ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'll see what I can find. Something one of you mentioned has me curious. That being whether or not there is a DHCP server running. My father's linksys router doles out IPs from 192.168.1.100 - something (I forget now). Once, while trying to get this working, he logged into his system (from his system) using ssh. What was odd was that he was able to log into his system by using the IP address of 192.168.100.101, but using ifconfig he'd always tell me that the IP was 192.168.1.100. I'm betting that his VoIP box must be doling out IPs as well as his Linksys router, or something like that. Jon, what do you mean when you say, The 'VoIP box' is usually an MTA? I'm used to MTA meaning Message Transfer Agent. Is it the same in this case too?

Install order?
Hello all, I'm very new to FreeBSD, just installed it for the first time maybe a week ago. I've redone it several times since, so feel comfortable in the VERY basics. I've got things like ntp, ftp, and ssh configured, no problem. Not worried about mail. I'm setting this machine up as a local internet test server. I need to get Apache, MySQL and PHP installed, and I'm worried if there's a preferred /required order to get it to work right / at all. FWIW - I've checked the handbook, apache.org, php.net, and mysql.com. I keep feel like I'm going round in circles. Also, I've noticed that some of the port versions on this site are a little newer that in my 6.2 release. Will I have problems installing these instead? Thanks in advance.

Most FreeBSD people use portsnap or cvsup to keep ports updated. Portsnap is easier. You'll want to use portupgrade, but there is funk you'lll run into if you try to pkg_add -r portupgrade. Instead, use portsnap to get a ports tree first, then cd /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portupgrade then make install.

- I've checked the handbook, apache.org, php.net, and mysql.com. I

There is officially no preferred order... each port will pull in what
it needs. For example just selecting the apache module when
installing php will automatically drag in a configured and working
version of apache (at least if you want stuff on port 8080 [std port
is 80 so you will need to edit the config file slightly {you may also
want to move docroot to a more convient place also}])...
Now there are some known (very rare) exceptions to the above for
example if you install net-p2p/deluge and multimedia/miro you should
install deluge first (while hand configuring boost to compile with
boost-python [actually just some make flags] instead of plain boost)
Also, I've noticed that some of the port versions on this site are
a little newer that in my 6.2 release. Will I have problems
installing these instead?
You shouldn't have an issue since almost all ports have existed (and
largely unmodified) since 6.2... that being said you should still
consider up grading to 7 if at all possible since it adds a lot of
stuff that makes general operation much smoother.
Thanks in advance.

Cool. Welcome! Also, I've noticed that some of the port versions on this site are a little newer that in my 6.2 release. Will I have problems installing these instead? The ports shown on the site are sometimes newer because the ported software has changed, and the port updated, since 6.2 was released. Two ports I install on a new machine, before just about anything else, are sysutils/fastest_cvsup [1] and ports-mgmt/portupgrade. With portupgrade, I can use csup to get my ports up-to-date before installing anything else. That way I'll get the latest, or nearly so, version of apache or whatever. [1] You'll see this notation a lot on this list. sysutils/fastest_cvsup means that you would do your 'make install' in /usr/ports/sysutils/fastest_cvsup. To answer the question, you may or may not have problems depending on the specific port. For 6.2-RELEASE, I would guess that you're OK since it's relatively recent. But the more time passes, the fewer ports will install properly. I would suggest you get acquainted with port (and system) updating procedures early on; it will save you grief down the road. Now seems like a good time, since you have a new system with (presumably) nothing important on it yet.

And confirming: # sysctl hw.acpi.lid_switch_state=1# (or =0) hw.acpi.lid_switch_state: NONE sysctl: hw.acpi.lid_switch_state: Invalid argument This is because this sysctl is not an on/off, but it takes an Sx state to suspend to when you close the lid. So if you set this to S1 it will try to enter S1 when you close the lid, etc. For example: sysctl hw.acpi.lid_switch_state=S3 Would make it enter S3 when you closed the lid. Thanks John. S3 works on mine, but S1 doesn't. Didn't try S5 :) but NONE is really what I want there anyway. cheers, Ian ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
