pf question
I'm just starting to play around with pf to get it to handle NAT for a LAN, and I've just discovered that I don't know how to get pf to reload /etc/pf.conf after I make changes to it. pfctl -d -e doesn't do it, and neither does pfctl -d; pfctl -e. Is there a way to do it besides rebooting? Please copy me in directly on any replies.

Re: Postfix issue
why are you not using your ISP to relay emails, using its mail gateway (which should have a static IP address)? ... I do not like the fact that a number of governments (including most european ones) now have the right to access all emails that pass through an ISP's server. They do not have the right to access private server systems unless they have a warrant. This *is* a valid concern, but it's not clear to me how it applies to messages that are being sent to public mailing lists where they will be as available to Big Brother as to anyone else. How about configuring your MTA to send anything going to a public list via your ISP, and send directly only messages that aren't going to be posted for the world to see? Another emerging issue is cable operators refusing to allow fixed IP address so they can receive revenue from reporting on user usage data. I seriously doubt that as a motivation. If anything, static IP assignments would make it *easier* to track per-customer usage. A more likely reason is that most residential users, even on cable or DSL, do not keep their router (or system, if they have only one and therefore don't use a router) on-line anywhere near 24-7. The ISP can serve several customers per IP address by using DHCP (so that customers occupy IP addresses only when on-line). ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Put it in /etc/make.conf -- that way it will work for all ports, however
you manage them and independent of whether you use portupgrade, portmanager
or just 'cd /usr/ports/port/name ; make install'.

My problem is that I can't find out if I should choose a 3D chipset from Intel, Ati, or nVidia. What's the state of support, track record, and such for these nowadays? This is becoming a FAQ. You should be able to find some good information in a couple of relatively recent threads. The nutshell summary (in my opinion, from memory) is this: * nVidia support is good w/ the binary driver on i386. Not available on amd64. * ati support is great for hardware supported by radeon(4x). The manpage has a pretty good list. Better support for fancier cards (hd, etc) is coming but not quite all the way there. * intel support is very good. Not quite as many souped-up options but modern onboard intel graphics are more than adequate for almost anything, including many games. That's excellent! Believe you me, I've done rather a lot of googling, but it's tricky to come up with the right mix of keywords to not be flooded with wrong results. Thank you so very much! FYI, I will buy a (Sapphire?) Radeon HD3850, because it has dual DVI out and *very* low idle power draw. I shall have to take my chances with the not quite all the way there HD support. :o) KlaymenDK -- 010\001\111 -- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: safest way to upgrade a production server
Anyway, I guess what I should do is patch this to the latest 6.3 version? My strategy was to do a source-base upgrade to 6.3-RELEASE, and then use freebsd-update to apply critical patches. Freebsd-update only works on -RELEASE versions with generic kernels, but I find it much faster and easier than trying to do upgrades from source. You also need to keep track of ports that need updating: use portaudit for that. Unfortunately, this sounds about right, to me. Well, I'm going to have to practice long and hard before trying this on our production machines... I need to get a feeling for just how dangerous a process this is, before trying it.

[OT] tcpdump overhead
Hello; I am doing a final paper for my post-graduate studies. The paper is about QOS on a corporate environment. One of the issues involved in the network measurements I am going to make is how much overhead tcpdump will have on them (if any). It seems to me that this overhead can be disregarded as influential but, if this is right, I need some proper source that I can quote and index on my paper. Could anyone show some directions for any official documentation on this? or maybe some opinions, sugestions from you guys on this subject that I could officially put on this paper? well, thanks and sorry for this off-topic.

Re: mail server DNS configuration questions
Andrew Falanga presented these words - circa 9/6/08 6:28 PM- Hi, Well, my clients at church are still having issues and after working with George, a respondant to my original questions, I think that most, if not all, of my problems are related to DNS and how we've got it improperly configured. First, a crude drawing of how our mail server exists in the world: 192.168.2.x/24 72.24.23.252 lot's of networks Private Network -- CableOne -- Internet Now, our mail server's IP is 192.168.2.23. On the router, he (the person at whose house the mail server is) has IP forwarding setup so that mail get's sent to our FreeBSD machine. Using dig, here's the responses: (from my FBSD machine at home, not the server) [/usr/home/andy] - dig +short -t MX whitneybaptist.org 10 mail.whitneybaptist.org. [/usr/home/andy] - dig +short -t A whitneybaptist.org 72.24.34.252 [/usr/home/andy] - dig +short -x 72.24.34.252 34-252.72-24-cpe.cableone.net. (from the church FBSD machine) [/home/afalanga] - hostname whitbap [/home/afalanga] - ifconfig fxp0 fxp0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 options=8VLAN_MTU inet 192.168.2.23 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 255.255.255.255 ether 00:d0:b7:74:87:48 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex) status: active [/home/afalanga] - cat /etc/resolv.conf search McCutchanLAN nameserver 192.168.2.1 It doesn't take a rocket scientist, or a computer scientist, to figure out we've got DNS issues. I'm thinking that I should setup a domain within the 192.168.2.0/24 network on this box. I've done this before, at work. The question I've got is I've never actually integrated a domain like this to a domain on the Internet. I'm thinking that we'll setup something like: internal.whitneybaptist.org with hosts in that sub-domain. First, what are you trying to accomplish with the internal DNS? Make it easier to resolve machines in the 192.168.2.0 network? Allow lookups external of the 192.168.2.0 network? What machine is 'mail.whitneybaptist.com'? Is it on the 192.168.2.0 network? Is it reachable from the Internet? Who is the owner of whitneybaptist.org DNS zone? I show the following NS servers: [EMAIL PROTECTED]/src/MPS/DocDownload 140 dig +short -t NS whitneybaptist.org ns1.domaindirect.com. ns2.domaindirect.com. ns3.domaindirect.com. Which is administered by tucows.com (Tucows, Inc) a seller of DNS services. So, what would my DNS tables need to look like to make this happen. Also, to any knowledgable souls here, what RFCs address these issues? You can read the RFC's if you want, but you would be better served to purchase DNS and BIND, Fourth Edition, by Paul Albitz Cricket Liu to learn how to administer DNS.

Local patches to ports?
Hello, We use Apache 1.3 on FreeBSD and for a long time, we have maintained our own build process separate from the ports collection because we have some local patches. These are accounting patches, of interest to no one but us, so I have no chance of getting anyone upstream to ever adopt them, but they are very important to us. After our last upgrade to 7-STABLE (7.1-PRERELEASE) our local build process started producing broken binaries but the port has patches and one of them makes it work. So, this seems like a good time to replace our build process with the ports collection. What's the best way to preserve our local patches and our custom configuration flags, and get them to apply to each new update of the port?

Thanks! -LM Hi Linda, I would recommend setting up a local Tinderbox installation: http://tinderbox.marcuscom.com/ Once you get it installed, you can configure it to call user-defined hook scripts at various points, such as after a ports tree update. When fired, your script can patch in your changes before the build starts. Before I knew about Tinderbox, I once set up a local ports tree in /usr/ports/local. In that directory, I created whatever port directory I needed, such as /usr/ports/local/www/apache13, and created a small Makefile to override some settings and then include the base port Makefile. That worked reasonably well, but I don't think I ever tested whether a local port upgraded cleanly. I'm leaning more and more toward the Tinderbox methodology, especially as I work on a process for auto-provisioning FreeBSD virtual machines. I like the fact that it builds all dependent ports and you can keep multiple build trees for different purposes. All of the packages live in a well-defined area, and portupgrade -PP should work for performing binary upgrades.

You can drop patches into the files subdirectory of the port, and they will get applied when the port is built. They will not get overwritten by cvsup or csup. I believe that in most usages portsnap won't touch them anyway. There are two ways to handle the configuration flags. One is to make up patches that modify the makefile (or configure script, or auto-whatever script, etc.). The other is to put in a Makefile.local in the directory, which will get included by the ports makefiles.

Now it's time to ask what are the voodoo commands to set up in my ~/.zshrc or other initiation files (probably including my muttrc) that will let me print to stdout, characters like the e-aigu or u-umlaut and the currency pound or Euro? The euro is not in iso-8859-1, but iso-8859-15. You need to load the appropriate fonts (at boot if you are root, see /etc/rc.conf) Yeah, I fergot. or use vidcontrol to load the iso fonts when you log in. You need to set your TERM environmental variable to the appropriate value in your shell rc. That might be cons25l1. You can check out termcap from a link in /etc. Why settle for ISO-8859-1? Switch to UTF-8 instead, wich can display a much larger number of characters, and is becoming the standard. Because it is a hiddeous waste for most readers and writers of English and other European languages. I got into several fistfights when I was doing error-translation for BSD at work, and refused to use utf-8 because it didn't support enough of the Chinese glyphs. But enough, I suppose; unless you want to create some severely obscure word. I also argured that utf-8 was a waste of a whole byte per char for most of us. I added the following to the 'setenv' section of the 'default' profile in login.conf: LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 AFAICT, the console doesn't have UTF-8 fonts (yet?).

Xorg issues with Toshiba
Good day. I have a Toshiba laptop and I am having problems with X configuration. The automatic (PCBSD 7 beta) utility for X configuration was failing. I then booted into single user mode disabled that feature (edited /etc/ttys). I kept having problems even with Xorg -config and Xorg -configure. When I run Xorg -config xorg.conf.new the usual criss-cross X screen comes up, however when I kill it with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace instead of getting back to the command line, I get a blank screen. And I can't do anything, switch terminals, or reboot. /var/log/X~.log doesn't help. Any idea?

This would help in avoiding conflicts between the local patches and the ones in `www/apache13'. This is, IMO, easier to maintain in the long term. I maintain several local ports for which I prefer my own builds rather than the ones from the distributed ports tree. There are several messages in the list archives on maintaining local ports trees, e.g., Vivek Khera, `Making a local branch of the ports tree', http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2007-April/040366.html If you need more help, you could ask here again. If, OTOH, you are sure that there is no possibility of conflict between the local patches and the ones in the distributed ports tree, then putting your local patches, as has been suggested by others, in `www/apache13/files' is an option. See the Porter's Handbook, Section 4.4, for guidelines. Raghavendra. -- N.

Re: Virtual machines hosted on FreeBSD 7
Eric Masson schrieb: http://vmware.com/products/esxi/ ESXi seems to be free, but not the entreprise administration tools. ESXi is free and can be administrated with the Virtual Infrastructure Client (also free and included in ESXi). You don't have to pay for a license to run ESXi or your virtual machines on it. You only need to buy a license if you want to integrate ESXi into a VCenter. So the only restrictions for ESXi are: - you have to register to get a serial number - you have to buy ESX(i)-compatible hardware bye, Uwe ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: kde3 build problems
I believe kde3 is obsolete. I Just did kde4 and it worked.

Re: rss-glx screen saver compilation fails?
spirographx.o(.text+0x30f): In function `getAll': : undefined reference to `sincosf' Per Google, it's a gnu-ism: http://linux.die.net/man/3/sincosf void sincosf(float x, float *sin, float *cos); Several applications need sine and cosine of the same angle x. This function computes both at the same time, and stores the results via the given pointers. Probably a 10-liner by just calling sin() and cos() separately -- a bit more work to do it properly -- or just grab the gnu code if you don't need to be BSD-licensed. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
sendmail as smarthost / authentication
Dear all, I did try to follow instructions at http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/auth.html to make sendmail use a smarthost. I only followed what is under section: Using sendmail as a client with AUTH Anyway, to cut long story short, sendmail does not operate as a client so my smarthost is rejecting its connections (of which I have log entries to prove). Any word of advice will be deeply appreciated. Do I need to install all the sasl-* stuff to make it work? I just want to forward root emails from a sendmail box to my main account. However, normal (non-smarthost) delievery is not possible as this box is on a dynamic address and thus rejected by the smarthost.
