You only need them if you want to configure modem for plain dial-in: i.e. somebody dials you, FreeBSD starts getty on this line, and lets your peer enter your system. If you want your peer to use PPP (to use IP over it, for example) you would not need to configure ttys also. And you do not need it if you want to dial-up somewhere too. What exactly you want to do?

Next csup tool to fetch src/ and ports/
Hi, I'm fan of csup, I've been using it for years, since 7.0-RELEASE, however it will be disabled on February 2013.. I don't care about using portsnap instead, but how to fetch src/ then ? I will need to use portsnap, to fetch ports build subversion and then I can fetch the src, fetch the ports again using svn this time, that's a little bit painful. Maybe we can try to write something like srcsnap with the same behavior / features as portsnap ?

It's called freebsd-update. :-) Provided you're happy with RELEASE and don't want to track STABLE or CURRENT, you can use freebsd-update to update just /usr/src. Simply find the line in /etc/freebsd-update.conf that reads Components src world kernel and change it to read Components src and it will only touch /usr/src.

I ask because depending on your goal there might be different approaches neccessary: a) dial out to connect to the Internet b) dial out to dial in to something else (e. g. shell access) c) dial out to send a fax d) dial out to make annoying phone calls :-) e) dial in so people can dial your system and log in f) dial in so people can send you fax g) dial in so you can control something using DTMF ... There are many possibilities, each requiring a different thing to do on FreeBSD (because they are obviously different(. And of course: Are you talking about a real modem (external serial modem), some modem card (often dysfunctional WinModem), or a USB modem? Brand and model? i thought that i should change /etc/ttys file to set speed and other configuration. Wouldn't you better do this with ppp.conf? Just assuming you want to dial _out_. in order to check if i am right or not, i comment ttyu line in ttys file and expect the modem got disconnected but the modem still works and can access to it. The /etc/ttys file doesn't restrict you in controlling the modem from your host system. i googled and found that there are three files in /etc that we can edit them to configure our devices: /etc/ttys, /etc/gettytab and /etc/rc.d/serial.sh. moreover we can edit init file for each device in /dev to set default speed and other configuration by stty command. Also depends on _what_ you are going to do. now i am confused and don't know which file i should edit to set speed and flow control and other setting to have a connection to my modem. i mean from which file i can configure my connection? i know it's too easy but please clear it for me. Really, I assume you're talking about dialing out with a serial modem in order to connect to the Internet (or some other system), and then be networked with it. In that case you would add an entry to /etc/ppp/ppp.conf. Allow me to provide an example that I've been using on FreeBSD 4 and 5: # PPP Configuration File # See /usr/share/examples/ppp/ for some examples # $FreeBSD: src/etc/ppp/ppp.conf,v 1.8 2001/06/21 15:42:26 brian Exp $ default: set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command ident user-ppp VERSION (built COMPILATIONDATE) set device /dev/cuaa0 set speed 115200 set dial ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \\ AT OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0 OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 set timeout 180 enable dns papchap: # edit the next three lines and replace the items in caps with # the values which have been assigned by your ISP. set phone PHONE_NUM set authname USERNAME set authkey PASSWORD set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 add default HISADDR mymodem: set phone 01234567890 set authname myname set authkey mypass add default HISADDR The example name I've chosen here is mymodem. Change it to something meaningful. :-) The essential authorisation data here is the phone number of 01234567890, the username 'myname' and the password 'mypass' Note that today it may be required to change the device name! I haven't tried to do anything with a modem on current FreeBSD, so I can't be more specific, sorry. The device name /dev/cuaa0 will probably need a change. And then set speed 115200 sets the speed you need. If you've done everything properly, you would do something like # ppp mymodem ppp dial Then the modem should dial. With close you close the connection. There are options for /etc/rc.conf (the ppp_* variables) that allow you to automate things, like dial on demand. In contradiction, in /etc/ttys something like ttyd0 /usr/libexec/getty std.9600 dialup on secure would enable you a serial console access (e. g. to connect a serial terminal to) at a speed of 9k6 (e. g. a DEC vt100). When connected via serial cable, you would receive a login prompt. Again, note that ttyd0 might not be valid here. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ 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

I tried a few experiments just now, and it still looks to me like the EBR is the problem. Unfortunately, I don't know how to work around it. Certainly it should be possible to do this. It's a matter of getting the partitioning tools to do it. Anything else I can try? Share sda10 with FreeBSD swap.

i386 vs amd64

I could be wrong here but I think you have a loop. You are redirecting
from local interface to local interface i.e. the result of redirect is
still subject for redirect. Could you try one of the following:
1. Make this a `rdr in on $int_if`.
2. Make this a `rdr pass ... - 127.0.0.1 port 8080`. I prefer this way
so port for transparent forwarding is unreachable except when explicitly
redirecting to it.
Personally I newer allow such ambiguity in my configs.
#1 gives a syntax error when I try to load it.
#2 My intention is to redirect only ftp traffic with this rule so that's why
I use port 8021.
Do you mean that I should redirect even ftp traffic to port 8080?
Thanks!
/Leslie
Well, that depends on what you want to do.
If you want FTP traffic to go to ftp-proxy running on the firewall,
then redirect to 8021.
If you want it to go to your squid proxy, then send it to port 8080 on $proxy.
Let's redo your redirects correctly.
I'll expand upon Volodymyr's idea of not confusing normal rules with
ones matching a packet that was redirected, through the use of tags.
# 1/ redirect web traffic to the proxy $proxy on port $proxyport
rdr in on $int_if inet proto tcp from !$proxy to any port 80 - $proxy
port $proxyport tag rdr_proxy
# 2/ redirect FTP traffic to the ftp-proxy running on the local
machine on port 8021
rdr in on $int_if inet proto tcp from $int_if:network to any port 21
- 127.0.0.1 port 8021 tag rdr_ftp
# 3/ access rule to allow traffic from the local net to your proxy
pass in quick on $int_if inet proto tcp flags S/SAFR tagged rdr_proxy
# 4/ access rule to allow traffic from the local net to your FTP proxy
pass in quick on $int_if inet proto tcp flags S/SAFR tagged rdr_ftp
# 5/ access rule to allow your proxy to do whatever it wants in a very
limited fashion
pass in quick on $int_if inet proto tcp from $proxy to any port { 80
443 } flags S/SAFR
I liked Volodymyr's original intent behind the rdr pass, the use of
tags here allows you to setup actual pass/block rules and still match
packets coming from a redirect.
This has many advantages, including:
- quick keyword
- flags matching
- use of labels to keep stats, if you'd like to
Well basically it only has advantages.
Let me know if that helped.

Linux grub legacy until now is unable to boot BSD, because of Error17: Cannot mount selected partition spinymouse@q:~$ cat /boot/grub/menu.lst timeout 8 default 0 color light-blue/black light-cyan/blue title FreeBSD root (hd0,a) kernel /boot/loader [snip] Linux only recognize the slice, but not what's inside it: spinymouse@q:~$ sudo fdisk -l Disk /dev/sda: 320.1 GB, 320072933376 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 38913 cylinders, total 625142448 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x000f2fc6 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 63 12127468460637311 a5 FreeBSD /dev/sda2 * 121274746 625137344 251931299+ 5 Extended [snip] spinymouse@q:~$ sudo parted -l Model: ATA SAMSUNG HD321KJ (scsi) Disk /dev/sda: 320GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: msdos Number Start End SizeType File system Flags 1 32.3kB 62.1GB 62.1GB primary freebsd-ufs 2 62.1GB 320GB 258GB extended boot [snip] From the FreeBSD 9.0 DVD shell: # gpart show = 63 625142385 ada0 MBR (298G) 63 121274622 1 freebsd (57G) 121274685 61- free - (30k) 121274746 503862599 2 ebr [active] (240G) 625137345 5103- free - (2.5M) = 63 976773105 ada1 MBR (465G) 63 42973812 1 linux-data (20G) 42973875 61- free - (30k) 42973936 933794129 2 ebr (445G) 976768065 5103- free - (2.5M) =0 121274622 ada0s1 BSD (57G) 04194304 1 freebsd-ufs (2.0G) 4194304 19922944 2 freebsd-swap (9.5G) 241172484194304 4 freebsd-ufs (2.0G) 28311552 92952576 5 freebsd-ufs (44G) 121264128 10494 - free - (5.1M) =0 503862599 ada0s2 EBR (240G) 0 62476724 1 ntfs (29G) 62476724 62669565 991695 linux-data (29G) 125146289 62862345 1986450 linux-data (30G) 188008634 52684236 2984265 linux-data (25G) 240692870 73650176 3820522 linux-data (35G) 314343046748 - free - (374k) 3143437944546395 4989585 linux-swap (2.2G) 318890189 121708440 5061750 linux-data (58G) 4405986297341705 6993630 linux-data (3.5G) 447940334 46299330 7110165 linux-data (22G) 4942396649622935 7845075 linux-data (4.6G) =0 933794129 ada1s2 EBR (445G) 0 42957749 1 linux-data (20G) 42957749 42765030 681870 linux-data (20G) 857227795092605 1360680 linux-swap (2.4G) 90815384 42154560 1441515 linux-data (20G) 132969944 43246980 2110635 linux-data (20G) 1762169241020340 2797095 linux-data (498M) 177237264 26476544 2813290 linux-data (12G) 203713808 100861952 3233553 linux-data (48G) 304575760514 - free - (257k) 304576274 209759742 4834545 linux-data (100G) 514336016963 - free - (481k) 514336979 419456061 8164080 linux-data (200G) 933793040 1089 - free - (544k) = 63 46299204 ada0s13 MBR (22G) 63 46299204 - free - (22G) = 63 46299204 ext2fs/backs MBR (22G) 63 46299204- free - (22G) Regards, Ralf ___ 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

The entry might look something like this: apache ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /sbin/ipfw That will allow the apache user to do things like: sudo ipfw table 7 add … because sudo will allow password-less privilege escalation to root (but only for ipfw, nothing else, for security reasons naturally). -- Devin _ The information contained in this message is proprietary and/or confidential.

audio CD/CD-TEXT

Re: set connection to a modem
thanks guys for your replies, now i understand two types of connections are available by modem, dial-in and dial-out. honestly, i should do it for my boss and don't know what he should want exactly to do but i am sure that he has an external serial modem and wants to config it by AT commands via a freebsd system; therefore i think our connection is dial-out. now which files i should edit? just ppp.conf? and because our modem supports specific speed and flow control, is it necessary to set these parameters in my freebsd? and if yes, how i can do that? please help me to do that thanks On Wed, Nov 28, 2012 at 7:35 PM, Polytropon free...@edvax.de wrote: On Wed, 28 Nov 2012 13:44:18 +0330, s m wrote: hello guys, i want to connect my freebsd system to modem and configure it via my freebsd. For doing _what_ exactly? I ask because depending on your goal there might be different approaches neccessary: a) dial out to connect to the Internet b) dial out to dial in to something else (e. g. shell access) c) dial out to send a fax d) dial out to make annoying phone calls :-) e) dial in so people can dial your system and log in f) dial in so people can send you fax g) dial in so you can control something using DTMF ... There are many possibilities, each requiring a different thing to do on FreeBSD (because they are obviously different(. And of course: Are you talking about a real modem (external serial modem), some modem card (often dysfunctional WinModem), or a USB modem? Brand and model? i thought that i should change /etc/ttys file to set speed and other configuration. Wouldn't you better do this with ppp.conf? Just assuming you want to dial _out_. in order to check if i am right or not, i comment ttyu line in ttys file and expect the modem got disconnected but the modem still works and can access to it. The /etc/ttys file doesn't restrict you in controlling the modem from your host system. i googled and found that there are three files in /etc that we can edit them to configure our devices: /etc/ttys, /etc/gettytab and /etc/rc.d/serial.sh. moreover we can edit init file for each device in /dev to set default speed and other configuration by stty command. Also depends on _what_ you are going to do. now i am confused and don't know which file i should edit to set speed and flow control and other setting to have a connection to my modem. i mean from which file i can configure my connection? i know it's too easy but please clear it for me. Really, I assume you're talking about dialing out with a serial modem in order to connect to the Internet (or some other system), and then be networked with it. In that case you would add an entry to /etc/ppp/ppp.conf. Allow me to provide an example that I've been using on FreeBSD 4 and 5: # PPP Configuration File # See /usr/share/examples/ppp/ for some examples # $FreeBSD: src/etc/ppp/ppp.conf,v 1.8 2001/06/21 15:42:26 brian Exp $ default: set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command ident user-ppp VERSION (built COMPILATIONDATE) set device /dev/cuaa0 set speed 115200 set dial ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \\ AT OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0 OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 set timeout 180 enable dns papchap: # edit the next three lines and replace the items in caps with # the values which have been assigned by your ISP. set phone PHONE_NUM set authname USERNAME set authkey PASSWORD set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 add default HISADDR mymodem: set phone 01234567890 set authname myname set authkey mypass add default HISADDR The example name I've chosen here is mymodem. Change it to something meaningful. :-) The essential authorisation data here is the phone number of 01234567890, the username 'myname' and the password 'mypass' Note that today it may be required to change the device name! I haven't tried to do anything with a modem on current FreeBSD, so I can't be more specific, sorry. The device name /dev/cuaa0 will probably need a change. And then set speed 115200 sets the speed you need. If you've done everything properly, you would do something like # ppp mymodem ppp dial Then the modem should dial. With close you close the connection. There are options for /etc/rc.conf (the ppp_* variables) that allow you to automate things, like dial on demand. In contradiction, in /etc/ttys something like ttyd0 /usr/libexec/getty std.9600 dialup on secure would enable you a serial console access (e. g. to connect a serial terminal to) at a speed of 9k6 (e. g. a DEC vt100). When connected via serial cable, you would receive a login prompt. Again, note that ttyd0 might not be valid here. -- Polytropon Magdeburg,
