what is the “Online Certificate Status Protocol”
I use privoxy. In the user.action file i have a redirect rule and a few
websites:
{ +redirect{s@http://@https://@} }
.twitter.com
.facebook.com
Ok! it's working great, e.g.: if i visit any *twitter.com URL it gets
redirected to HTTPS!
But: with wireshark i can see some OCSP packets [
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_Certificate_Status_Protocol ]
Question: What are these packets? Why aren't there in HTTPS?
Is my redirection method with privoxy is secure?
Thank you for any tips/opinions!

Re: Portupgrade and Updating the portsdb

[Updating the portsdb format:dbm_hash in /usr/ports ... - 22601 port entries found . . done] Okay. It took 10-15 mins to rebuild.

Why is it so? Ports are updated via portsnap fetch update. /etc/portsnap.conf has INDEX INDEX-5 DESCRIBE.5 INDEX INDEX-6 DESCRIBE.6 INDEX INDEX-7 DESCRIBE.7 INDEX INDEX-8 DESCRIBE.8 So while portupgrade rebuilds portsdb it's not possible use portupgrade on 2nd server because later build process will fail on 1st or second server. What can I do with it? Why portupgrade always thinks that [/usr/ports/INDEX-7.db: unexpected file type or format -- Invalid argument]? The INDEX-n.db is a locally generated portupgrade thing. Edit your /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf for each machine to include a line such as: ENV['PORTS_INDEX'] ||= ENV['PORTSDIR'] + '/INDEX.local' Only instead of '/INDEX.local' use '/INDEX.your_hostname_here'. You might also look at changing the part ENV['PORTSDIR'] to something local (speed, etc), like adding a line up from that: ENV['LOCALINDICES'] ||= '/var/db' then ENV['PORTS_INDEX'] ||= ENV['LOCALINDICES'] + '/INDEX.thy_hostname_here' Also, if you have local space, settin' WRKDIRPREFIX= in /etc/make.conf will speed things up allow multiple machines to build at the same time. HTH -- -- It's time to make upgrade of some packages. I configured ENV['PORTS_INDEX'] = '/var/db/INDEX' ENV['PORTS_DBDIR'] = ENV['PKG_DBDIR'] in /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf, assuming that PKG_DBDIR is /var/db/pkg and portupgrade sudo results Fetching the ports index ... fetch: /usr/ports/INDEX-7.bz2: open(): Read-only file system *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports. failed to fetch INDEX!

Installing squid, where should the directories be?
Hello list. I'm installing squid on a new 8.2-RELEASE machine. I've done it it before with squid 2.x and I have notes to follow. A few questions have turned up. I have /usr/local/squid as default directory and has made a separate mount point. When it comes to the cache and the logs directory I can see that the squid installation has created the /var/squid/cache directory. When Googling this problem I see both the use of /var/squid and /usr/local/squid. Where should it be? When running the command squid -z to initialize the cache the cache directory must be there otherwise the command won't work. How should I set the permissions on /usr/local/squid and the directories below? I find what I consider conflicting information, often it's quite dated. I could not find any advise in the Handbook. I'll be happy to help making a squid chapter.

HP Pavilion zd8000 Xorg anomaly

RE: Nonsensical Web Log Entries
I don't know if I got through the last time but you ... could... add to but not take away from your operational matrices by writing it to a file. Using tcpdump to anylize the traffic on your webserver, It might clear up some of the confusion. tcpdump -i fxp0 -nN -vvv -xX -s 1500 port 80 fale You can also read some of the output data. Eg, here are some of my logs: 168.216.29.89 - - [09/Mar/2011:08:49:15 -0500] GET /index.php?domain=fixitbottld=comlookup=%3E%3E HTTP/1.1 200 5413 - Mozilla /4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322) The query is 8,223 bytes and logged as 5,413 bytes ?

using dovecot, where is ICOMING mail stored?
Does anybody know about this obscure stuff? In late DEcember, 2007 my FreeBSD server started having serious problems that were over my head. I asked this list for help but no one could help me; long-story-short, a guy from the DFW area, a self-taught net-wizard came to my rescue. Via the yahoo IM application and thanks to a fellow here with two strong arms, this network guy set me up with a pfSense firewall (on an old Kayak), and fixed/changed stuff on my server. He installed some mail tool called dovecot and deployed that on my server. At the time I was running FreeBSD everywhere except one of my four other computers. He also found something to let me still use mutt. I prefer CLI and text--8859-1 or ASCII. Hand on keyboard; my should got destroyed many years ago so the less motion between keyboard and mouse, the better. This morning I found the 15 or 20 messages in my incoming mail queue gone. Vanished. ---I do of course backup stuff in my ~/Maildir on my server. I checked my bup. Nothing. Does anybody know what this dovecot does with its incoming mail files? I only do one daily backup that it ccron'd for 03:00 [[along with a bunch of other critical directories, of course]] If I knew where else to tar -cyvf whatever I would do that, especially with mail.

Are there other ways in which Apple might be reciprocating? - Nerius Apple has had a mixed relationship giving back to the BSD community. They did hire several developers over time and do have several projects that they have open sourced. Launchd iCal server are two of the bigger ones. I personally feel that they could do better and certainly could have done things differently in a way that would have helped the community and built an even stronger product base but let's face it they sure aren't listening to me. In recent years their marketing as gone to some lengths to scrub the references to BSD UNIX from the brochures. It's like they are ashamed of their roots, again personally I think they hired some new anti-geeks that just don't get it. I would suggest you look at spreading your investment around to several BSD supportive companies. Obviously Apple and Juniper pop up to the top of the list. I would have offered Isilon but they have been assimilated into the beast know as EMC so that may not be an option. At the end of the day they are a company, and companies must make money in order to survive. Therefore, do not get too attached to their BSD rhetoric because the winds of business can change direction at any moment. On a side note: I would love to find a comprehensive list of both public and private companies that are BSD supportive.

Re: Apple FreeBSD relationship
Hi-- #include std/disclaimer.h It wouldn't be considered appropriate for Apple employees or contractors (well, outside of the folks working in investor relations, perhaps) to try to persuade someone to invest in a particular company because of which open source projects Apple might be contributing towards. In another context, someone from Apple who was familiar with those contributions might be free to discuss them, but they would generally be expected to not identify their affiliation with Apple to avoid unduly influencing other people or creating a real or perceived conflict of interest. Someone who was looking for more information about this would find the investor relations page, corporate governance section, and the Business Conduct Policy documents informative, which are all publicly documented here: http://www.apple.com/investor/ http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=107357p=irol-govHighlights http://phx.corporate-ir.net/External.File?item=UGFyZW50SUQ9NTQ1NTF8Q2hpbGRJRD0tMXxUeXBlPTM=t=1 (PDF warning) Regards, -- -Chuck ___ 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

Hi Why would you want a window manager on your servers? Do you all work directly on the consoles? Do you have window managers/desktop environments on the workstations and access your servers remotely? It's not very hard, I would say it's easier, to configure your servers and services from the commandline with ssh. Or if you really want something graphical then webmin would be fine also. This is what I tend to roll-out for other (graphical oriented) administrators and with some custom commands configured this works great for them.
