Re: batch rename
In the last episode (Jan 05), Jeff Laine said:
My goal is to rename several files in such a way as to decapitalize
starting letters in their names. The solution seems to be simple but
I'm stuck. What should I use? awk/sed or write some shell-script?
Best way is with ports/misc/mmv:
mmv ?* =l1=2
If you use zsh, you can use the zmv function to do the same thing:
autoload -U zmv
zmv '([A-Z])(*)' '${(L)1}$2'
Both of the above will detect filename collisions and tell you what
won't work. If you know there aren't any collisions, you could do this
(zsh again):
for i in [A-Z]* ; do
mv $i ${i[1]:l}${i[2,-1]}
done

7.0-PRERELEASE installworld fails
Hi all Please note: I have posted this on freebsd-current. I'm sorry for that. I went again thru the Rebuilding world section in the Handbook and saw at the end if there are problems I should post to freebsd-questions. Kindly reply on this post.

At this time, I’m using cvsup, following the steps described in the handbook http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ cutting-edge.html and it works fine, but I’m curious about the possible advantages of freebsd-update, in particular the rollback feature.

How do I get sendmail working again
HI, I've gotten myself into a real fix at this point. (This is a continuation of the thread I started, sendmail is broken, how do I fix?) I was trying to setup authentication based relaying using istructions at http://www.puresimplicity.net/~hemi/freebsd/sendmail.html. I must first say that I was trying to get authentication based relaying working by using the instructions in the handbook under the title SMTP Authentication. The two set of instructions do overlap slightly. Well, after following the instructions at the former link, sendmail will no longer start and is complaining with errors as follows from the /var/log/maillog file: Jan 4 17:36:42 whitbap sm-mta[975]: starting daemon (8.13.8): [EMAIL PROTECTED]:30:00 Jan 4 17:36:42 whitbap sm-mta[975]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root): opendaemonsocket: daemon MTA: cannot bind: Address already in use Jan 4 17:36:42 whitbap sm-mta[975]: daemon MTA: problem creating SMTP socket Jan 4 17:36:42 whitbap sm-msp-queue[979]: starting daemon (8.13.8): [EMAIL PROTECTED]:30:00 Jan 4 17:36:42 whitbap sm-mta[978]: m010sNBM004564: to=[EMAIL PROTECTED], delay=3+23:42:19, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, pri=2555114, relay=mail02.interchangeusa.com.

Anyone using dovecot deliver for virtual users

My sendmail appears to be fixed, advice needed though
Hi everybody, Sorry for this flurry of e-mail from me over the last few days. This has been highly frustrating. At any rate, I think I've worked it out. Although, I'd like to have some folks look over this hostname.mc file and tell me if the fix is legitimate. Basically, the instructions for setting up SSL and Authentication (from http://www.puresimplicity.net/~hemi/freebsd/sendmail.html) instruct to have the following lines in the hostname.mc file: define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS',`PLAIN LOGIN')dnl TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`PLAIN LOGIN')dnl define(`CERT_DIR', `/etc/mail/certs')dnl define(`confCACERT_PATH', `CERT_DIR')dnl define(`confCACERT', `CERT_DIR/mycert.pem')dnl define(`confSERVER_CERT', `CERT_DIR/mycert.pem')dnl define(`confSERVER_KEY', `CERT_DIR/mykey.pem')dnl define(`confCLIENT_CERT', `CERT_DIR/mycert.pem')dnl define(`confCLIENT_KEY', `CERT_DIR/mykey.pem')dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp, Name=MTA')dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtps, Name=TLSMTA, M=s')dnl I deleated this line: DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp, Name=MTA')dnl And all is working ok now (at least it seems so). I also went over Josh's instructions with a finer tooth comb than before (I skipped a couple of steps because they looked identical to what was in the FreeBSD handbook for this, but found there were some very subtle differences). After recompiling and installing a new sendmail binary per Josh's instructions at the above line, I actually still have the can't bind to port problems, but things are now working as I said, without that line in the *.mc file. Is this a viable fix or will I be missing something? I was able to telnet to port 25 and send mail that way. I cannot relay without logging in, so I think it's fixed.

PF and fitering statefull on GIF interface
Hi all, im using FreeBSD 6.2-p9 on my server which acts as IPSec router using ipsec-tools. This works fine... But now i need to filter traffic which comes from the local private network to the vpn private network. I tried todo this with pf and using keep state. The return packets just get dropped. So I reread the gif manpage and read about the IPSEC_FILTERGIF option. I rebuilded the kernel with the option and tried it again. No luck! So I suspect this option is only valid for ipfw and ipf ? Any idea how i can use pf + ipsec ( over gif interface ) to filter the needed stuff. This for example not work: LOCAL_NET = 10.0.0.0/24 VPN_REMOTE_NET = 192.168.10.0/28 pass proto tcp from $LOCAL_NET to $VPN_REMOTE_NET port 22 flags S/SA keep state This works: LOCAL_NET = 10.0.0.0/24 VPN_REMOTE_NET = 192.168.10.0/28 pass proto tcp from $LOCAL_NET to $VPN_REMOTE_NET port 22 pass proto tcp from $VPN_REMOTE_NET port 22 to $LOCAL_NET Thx for the help bye Norman ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I think it's because you have the options listed above *after* the MAILER() calls. This means that the options are not `set' at the time the MAILER() calls generate your configuration. So you probably end up with several instances of the `MTA' and `TLSMTA' daemon definitions in the final `sendmail.cf' file. This could very well be the explanation of why your Sendmail *is* listening on port :25 and it *also* tries to listen again, logging the failures in syslog. Is this a viable fix or will I be missing something? I was able to telnet to port 25 and send mail that way. I cannot relay without logging in, so I think it's fixed. See my previous post about moving MAILER() calls to the end of the file, and give it another spin.

unpack win32 exe file
Hi I have a Windows executable file (.exe) which in a Windows environment would be run to extract some files which it contains. Is there any way I can extract the files on my FreeBSD system? I've tried unzip, gunzip and archivers/upx with various extensions, zip, exe, gz etc but they all fail in one way or another.

Re: My sendmail appears to be fixed, advice needed though
Well, oddly enough I moved those additional lines to a position before the
MAILER macros (I'll post the whitbap.mc file below as it exists now).
However, I still got those error messages:
Jan 5 18:29:10 whitbap sm-mta[6207]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root): opendaemonsocket:

Anyway, I'm going to remove that line I mentioned before as this seems to make
things work. Please help me to resolve this and thanks very much for the
help, this is great.

This has been highly frustrating. You should post *more* details, not less. One of the things which was missing from the older posts (or at least, one thing which I didn't see) was a *FULL* copy of your local *.mc configuration file. Basically, the instructions for setting up SSL and Authentication (from http://www.puresimplicity.net/~hemi/freebsd/sendmail.html) instruct to have the following lines in the hostname.mc file: define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS',`PLAIN LOGIN')dnl TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`PLAIN LOGIN')dnl define(`CERT_DIR', `/etc/mail/certs')dnl define(`confCACERT_PATH', `CERT_DIR')dnl define(`confCACERT', `CERT_DIR/mycert.pem')dnl define(`confSERVER_CERT', `CERT_DIR/mycert.pem')dnl define(`confSERVER_KEY', `CERT_DIR/mykey.pem')dnl define(`confCLIENT_CERT', `CERT_DIR/mycert.pem')dnl define(`confCLIENT_KEY', `CERT_DIR/mykey.pem')dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp, Name=MTA')dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtps, Name=TLSMTA, M=s')dnl I deleated this line: DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp, Name=MTA')dnl That doesn't sound right. I think it's because you have the options listed above *after* the MAILER() calls. This means that the options are not `set' at the time the MAILER() calls generate your configuration. So you probably end up with several instances of the `MTA' and `TLSMTA' daemon definitions in the final `sendmail.cf' file. This could very well be the explanation of why your Sendmail *is* listening on port :25 and it *also* tries to listen again, logging the failures in syslog. Is this a viable fix or will I be missing something? I was able to telnet to port 25 and send mail that way. I cannot relay without logging in, so I think it's fixed. See my previous post about moving MAILER() calls to the end of the file, and give it another spin. You are *very* close to figuring it all out and having a fully working setup, AFAICT :) Regards, Giorgos Glad to see that I'm on the right track. I think, after seeing the full contents of my whitbap.mc file, you'll see that the problem is that put these lines *after* the MAILER lines.

In the entire history of computers every time there has been a horsepower increase, the normal software that people run on the system has bloated to consume all available additional horsepower. Really? So how has the amount of horsepower required to handle centralized radius authentication, or provide DNS resolution, or static web service grown over the years? Good question and one that I'd suggest you as Microsoft. You have apparently never run the Microsot authentication server. I'm not talking about the normal software that people run on a system. So am I. I've watched for a decade as the load generated by certain services has stayed flat, however for security considerations they should not be combined onto the same operating envrionment. Are you trying to tell me that your shell server's utilization has just continued to grow over the years, that you've had to continuously upgrade the hardware to keep up with the demands of pine, tin, emacs, mutt, vim, irc, eggdrop, ezbounce, or whatever your customers are running? Please. I have watched as over the years the number of shell customers has continued to drop. Today I think we have no more than 5 left. And not for the lack of current versions of those utilities being available on the shell server. What you are doing is akin to saying that since the modern CPU can virtualize hundreds of 1MB 8086 real-mode sessions that we ought to be able to run hundreds of instances of WordPerfect for DOS on a typical modern PC. Well guess what - WE COULD! If someone wrote the software to do it, of course. I'm talking about professionally hosted services, you're talking about WordPerfect. Amateur hour starts at 5PM, the signups are over there. No, YOUR talking WordPerfect. When was the last time you saw a Linux user running a NON-graphical program? Programs like pine and tin are not what the VAST MAJORITY of UNIX users are running. They are running Gnome programs or Aqua programs on MacOS X. This in no way should be construed as a comment that programs like Pine are no good. On the contrary. I like it a lot. But, my life would be a lot easier if our customers were all running it instead of the bloatware that they run that does the same job, and that gets bigger, slower and fatter every new version that comes out. In the future I predict that ordinary standard desktop software is going to require: numerous processors with numerous cores and several gigs of memory, fast busses and standard multiple gige ports, inexpensive solid state disks as a MINIMUM system configuration, and people will think NOTHING of it. Code always bloats to fill all available machine power. Desktop software? Shouldn't you be posting on a linux mailing list? You are talking about running multiple sessions being inevitable. If your going to restrict this to ONLY server programs - why then you have your answer as to why jail is a dead-end. Incidentally, that is NOT what most people are doing with multiple sessions. Do you even know? The biggest market for multisession software today is Microsoft Terminal Server. They aren't running multiple sessions of server programs on it. They are running multiple sessions of DESKTOP SOFTWARE on it. What use is a program like jail if it can't be used to centralize user computing to a big powerful system like your talking? The ordinary administrators big headaches today AREN'T the server software. They are the USER software. UNIX has had X-Windows for years that allow you to do this. Windows now has it with MS Terminal Server. That's what is hot in multisession computing these days. Not 20 year old character mode programs. We seem to be very close to having the ability to completely segregate the control-plane from the data-plane (using router terminology). We had that ability with commodity cheap desktop hardware a decade ago. But, nobody wrote software to take advantage of the commodity cheap desktop hardware to do this back then, for the same reasons that the jail developer lost interest today. Actually, somebody was paying the jail developer, and then wasn't. More to the point, no, we didn't have the ability a decade ago to seperate CP from DP. A decade ago we were dealing with silly things like the maximum size of a partition, how to handle USB, how to scale to multiple processors, how to acheive line rate on gige, etc. Sure, sure. Believe what you want. I brought up my first PRODUCTION FreeBSD server in a commercial corporate network over 13 years ago. And that doesen't count the years prior to this spend on FreeBSD, and the

Please help me to resolve this and thanks very much for the help, this is great. Ok, not can you show us the contents of `/etc/rc.conf' related to Sendmail? It's the next thing we have to check to ensure you are not starting up multiple Sendmail listeners on the default smtp port. % grep -i sendmail /etc/rc.conf should do it :) You bet. whitbap# grep -i sendmail /etc/rc.conf #20071229 A.

Re: HOW-TO get Flash7 working!
By the way, I had some problems installing flash7 from ports a few days ago. It didn't like the size of the file and would fail even if you downloaded from Adobe and copied to ports/disfiles. I later did a 'portsnap fetch update' that must have gotten updated makefiles and fixed that problems. Anybody else with that issue should try updating the ports collection. Super you got it running. PS, I had to do that as well... rm /usr/ports/distfiles/flashplugin/fp7_archive.zip From full original instructions: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2008-January/165920.html Updating your ports (with portsnap or the cvsup) when trying to fix problems is always a good idea. Sometimes when everything seems busted the portupgrade tool can be helpful in rebuilding all your ports. Set it running before you go to bed, and ta-da, in the morning everything is working -- or completely broken :) Rudy ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Oh, and I installed Fedora 7 instead of the default Fedora Core 4 on my desktop. Why does the linux emulation pick 2.4.2 as the kernel version number to report (by default) and not 2.6.11 (their kernel version shipped with Fedora 4)? Seems like the ports should and linux module should be updated...

I tried getting flash to work in FreeBSD so many times and failed. It wasn't a big deal but it was annoying to have to boot into another system if there is content I needed to see that happens to be flash. I'm running FreeBSD 7 Beta4. I just did what you said: cd /usr/ports/www/linux-flashplugin7 make config-recursive install clean nspluginwrapper -v -a -i After that a flash content was playing in firefox. Unfortunately my AudigyLS soundcard only works with oss, which is having some problems now, so I was not able to verify that sound works well. I don't use OSS so have no idea on the issue there. By the way, I had some problems installing flash7 from ports a few days ago. It didn't like the size of the file and would fail even if you downloaded from Adobe and copied to ports/disfiles. I later did a 'portsnap fetch update' that must have gotten updated makefiles and fixed that problems. Anybody else with that issue should try updating the ports collection. The problem a few days ago was because the distfiles had been updated one way to fix this (which is what I did) is do a make makesum which will recalculate the checksums found in the distinfo file. - -- Aryeh M.
