BIND Refusing to Resolve for External Hosts
My named server used to resolve for external hosts. Recently I have
noticed that it no longer resolves names for resolvers not on the
local host. It works just fine for dig on the dns server itself. It
also works for domains that it has authority over. I also have it set
up to be a caching server on my network. Has the spec for the config
file changed or something?
Here is the beginning of the the config file:

Enabling the linuxulator loads a kernel module which provides a linux compatible syscall interface and a linux-like /proc filesystem: given that and the availability of suitable Linux shlibs, then potentially any Linux application can be run. On the other hand, given Apple's trenchant opposition to Flash on the iPad and iPhone, you could just grit your teeth for a year or so, by which time most sites should be providing a flash-free alternative. The FlashBlock and NoScript add-on modules for firefox work pretty well to smooth over the rough edges caused by lack of Flash support.

RE: sshd / tcp packet corruption ? ZFS & Samba?
Okay guys, Just thought i’d post that a resolution has been found. People suggested it could be hardware and try memtest – which never found anything. It seems though that in the end the issue is the motherboard; Possibly the southbridge or something to do with the PCI bus. The SATA drives which are hanging of a marvel in a pcie slot was unaffected. No amount of zfs scrubs and rsync with checksumming found anything wrong. It was only network traffic on the intel pro (pci card) or onboard nvidia nfe card that had issues. It was worst when using samba of ZFS, though god knows why that exposed the issue more. I never had any kernel panics, just silent data corruption on the PCI bus. Moved hdds and cards to a different motherboard, and everything is 100% fine. So a couple weeks looking at this on and off (and slowly losing my mind) and it was nothing more than flaky hardware. Thanks for your help to those who took the time to reply. Martin.

The sendmail facility is used by the system to deliver status messages (e. g. by the daily/monthly/weekly periodic scripts, sometimes by the printing subsystem), so it depends on an at least locally working installation. There may be other services that rely on sendmail to provide output directed to a system's mail box (usually root).

Question RE: Linux Mode
I have to say that I really feel the FreeBSD development model and Ports system to be superior to Linux. I want to use it; however, Adobe Flash is important to me. I understand that I can run Linux Flash with FreeBSD's Linux Mode. My question is this: If I turn on Linux mode, don't I sacrifice the security, performance, and other benefits of the FreeBSD kernel vice Linux? -BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK- Version: 3.1 GIT/TW/O d+(---)pu s: a C++() UBLS*$ P--(---) L++$ !E-() !W++$ !N !o K-? w--$ !O M+> !V PS+ PE+ !Y PGP t+ 5 X- R tv b+ DI D G e+>$ h r+++ y? --END GEEK CODE BLOCK-- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Boot to ZFS on FreeBSD 7.3
The release notes for FreeBSD 7.3 said that it could boot to zfs. I did not see any options for doing that via the normal install. I followed the instructions here: http://wiki.freebsd.org/RootOnZFS/GPTZFSBoot When I reboot, I get: can't load 'kernel' I wiped the disk and tried again to verify I didn't miss a step. Same result. I saw a suggestion that zfs.cache needed to be copied. I did that during the setup, but I tried doing it again from Fixit. Same result. The other suggestion I saw was to do section 2 step 7 "again." That shouldn't be necessary for 7.3, but I tried it anyway. Still seeing "can't load 'kernel'." Any suggestions for getting FreeBSD 7.3 to boot to ZFS?

If you do need to install packages that were released with the original os
build then the easiest way to do it is thus:
export
PACKAGESITE=ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/ports/`uname
-a | awk '{print $NF}'`/packages-`uname -r | sed s/STABLE/RELEASE/ |
tr 'A-Z' 'a-z'`/Latest/
pkg_add -r

Re: Would you recommend installing 8.1RC2?
Hi all, Thanks all for your replies. First of all: I've seen 8.1RC2 announced here: http://www.evilcoder.org/2010/06/27/freebsd-8-1-rc2-released/ But there're no links, I imagine it's about to be released or something. I think I'll try 8.1RC2 as soon as it's released. I also think that the differences should be minimal. I think I'll start reinstalling the workstation first (so that I can cross-compile ports to my laptop afterwards) and then I'll go through the process of backing-up my laptop and installing FreeBSD there.

I'm eager to try out 8.1, and I was thinking of trying it out on my laptop for my daily work (I'm currently running OpenSolaris 2009.06). My question is: if I install 8.1 RC2 would it be very difficult to upgrade it to 8.1-RELEASE afterwards? Would you recommend installing 8.1-RC2 right now or would you wait until 8.1-RELEASE is out within a few days? Thanks in advance, Antonio Hmm. Well apart from the fact that I can't find an 8.1-RC2 release (8.1-RC1 is the most recent I can locate) - I'd probably wait a bit - especially if you're a newcomer like me. While upgrading should be easy in most cases (freebsd-update upgrade -r 8.1-RELEASE ; freebsd-update install) ... I am having trouble with my 8.1-RC1 x64 VM - fetching files is failing with size mismatches. To me it appears that either my firewall/proxy, or the web server/fetch client cannot agree on the transmission of compressed files. I get size mismatches because the file gets decompressed somewhere along the way. I suspect the proxy but I haven't been able to prove it yet. Still, building a test/practice machine on 8.1-RC1 is certainly a good plan.

Would you recommend installing 8.1RC2?
Hi all, I'm brand new to FreeBSD. I've got 8.0-RELEASE up and running in my main workstation and I'm quite happy with it. Great job & congratulations. I'm eager to try out 8.1, and I was thinking of trying it out on my laptop for my daily work (I'm currently running OpenSolaris 2009.06). My question is: if I install 8.1 RC2 would it be very difficult to upgrade it to 8.1-RELEASE afterwards? Would you recommend installing 8.1-RC2 right now or would you wait until 8.1-RELEASE is out within a few days? Thanks in advance, Antonio ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

PEBKAC. How did you upgrade it (and more importantly - why, if it was working fine and was critical to you)? In the event of a crash you may have only needed to repair OpenLDAP's database (if using BDB, with db_recover) and continue. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

No, you can eliminate that factor. Runs fine on my machine.
