Daily report cannot be emailed to a jailed mail server
Hi, FreeBSD 7.2-R box with 10 jails. The mail server (actually its a mail filter) is hosted on the same server inside a jail. I can't seem to get the main server reports to be sent to the mail filter inside the jail inside the same box. so.. r...@localhost tries to send an email to some...@anotherdomain.com.au The MX entry for anotherdomain.com.au points to the mailfilter on the server (jailed). I've changed my /etc/mail/aliases to have root: some...@anotherdomain.com.au and ran newaliases. When i try to send an email i get in /var/log/messages sm-mta[94682]: n97LeeOw094682: Losing ./qfn97LeeOw094682: savemail panic Oct 8 08:40:40 server sm-mta[94682]: n97LeeOw094682: SYSERR(root): savemail: cannot save rejected email anywhere Oct 8 08:42:30 server sm-mta[94713]: n97LgTYg094713: Losing ./qfn97LgTYg094713: savemail panic Oct 8 08:42:30 server sm-mta[94713]: n97LgTYg094713: SYSERR(root): savemail: cannot save rejected email anywhere Oct 8 08:47:07 server sm-mta[95130]: n97Ll7VV095129: SYSERR(root): MX list for anotherdomain.com.au. points back to server.net In /var/log/maillog n97Ll7VV095129: to=some...@anotherdomain.com.au, ctladdr= (0/0), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, pri=30715, relay=anotherdomain.com.au., dsn=5.3.5, stat=Local configuration error Oct 8 08:47:07 server sm-mta[95130]: n97Ll7VV095129: n97Ll7VV095130: DSN: Local configuration error Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

Additionally, the faulty drive has positive > `Reported_incorrect=119',`Current_Pending_Sector=4294967295' and > `Offline_Uncorrectable=4294967295'. It looks like your drive is trying to remap a bad block, but can't seem to do so. You may need to do a cold boot. Or force a read/write from that sector to tell the drive to try to remap it again. dd if=/dev/adX of=/dev/null skip=4294967295 count=1 (Read from the block#) Looks like your HDD with the positive Current_Pending_Sector and Offline_Uncorrectable with that is going bad. Once it manages to remap the block, your Reallocated_Sector_Ct will increase/decrease (depends on the counter), once it reaches the THRESH counter, its out of blocks to map. I would recommend you change HDD as soon as possible.

Managing ports on multiple jails
Hi, I have multiple jails using ezjails, approx 20. I'm currently doing portsnap fetch update ezjail-admin update -P then doing a portmaster -Bad on each jail, but its pretty time consuming, esp when you have to peridically come back and check if its done and do the next one. I've tried building packages in one jail and sharing it to all the other jails. make package-recursive But sometimes a particular package won't install properly, then I'll end up building from source again. Does anyone have any other ways to quickly upgrade multiple jails or even multiple boxes?

conftest, uid 0: exited on signal 11 - Normal?
Hi, pid 96087 (conftest), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped) I've been googling around and people say its usually a hardware problem or memory. I've done memtest86+ on all of them and it returned fine. (I know it doesn't mean there isn't a problem), HDD SMART is all good. But I've been getting it only when "make"-ing something or upgrading a port, other than that, the system is fine and stable. This happens so far on 3 machines, is this something to worry about or is it normal? All three are running 6.2-RELEASE-p4. pc1 - P4 w/ HT disabled, 512MB ECC RAM, 2x SATA gmirror pc2 - AMD 3000+, 512MB ECC RAM, 2x SATA gmirror pc3 - Celeron 2Ghz, 256MB RAM, 1 IDE HDD on the celeron and AMD i can get the conftest to core dump whilst port installing the samba-3.0.25a_1,1, it happens near the end of the initial configuration. I haven't tested it on the P4 yet. PC1,PC2 machines load is around 0.1 most of the time, its mostly file serving and light database use. Are the conftest core dumps anything to worry about?

Not with dump/restore. After using amanda and a tape drive for eons I'm now happy with a bacula solution to backup 2 freebsds and a windows machine. It does incrementals except on Saturday night when it alternates between a differential (sort of a mass incremental from the last full) and a full backup to a cheap IDE drive. Every Sunday I copy the IDE drive to a USB drive and take it offsite and bring back another one. After restoring from scratch - power supply frying the entire RAID array on my desktop -STABLE machine - I think the advantages of dump are certainly there but for my apps, where I don't have any huge sparse files or a lot of hard links other than whatever gets installed with a fresh install (if anything) to worry about - they're outweighed by the convenience of bacula where I can go back to a point in time.

Backing Up ZFS
Hi, As ZFS is becoming more stable and approaching production ready, how would one "Backup" ZFS? In terms of backing up to an external media or storage rather than doing snapshots. In case the the server spontaneously bursts into flames. Cost would be my main focus, so backing up to a HDD would be preferable. I'm just curious at what others are currently doing to back up huge amounts of data. eg. 2TB and onwards. 1. ZFS -> External HDD (External HDD aren't even big enough to handle greater than 2TB) Taken offsite daily 2. ZFS -> Another ZFS box (Not sure how you take it off site daily) 3. ZFS -> Remote ZFS using RSync (Living in Australia, there are limits on data transfer of a few hundred GB per month, to costs are prohibitive) Regards David N ___ 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"

From what I've experience, freebsd just drops the drive. (Currently running in a gmirror config). I'm not sure about ZFS, but i would assume it would do the same. All you need to the do reattach the drive and it will sync back up again. I didn't know the reason why it dropped off, but when i checked the SMART, it showed 1 bad sector reallocation. If it happens to a disk with UFS, it crashes and restarts the machine, UFS doesn't like disappearing drives.

GJournal: Out of cache force switch - With lock up
Hi, I'm running geom journal in debug and I'm seeing some GEOM_JOURNAL[1]: No cache, waking up the switcher. GEOM_JOURNAL[1]: Out of cache, force switch (used=.. limit=.. ) But on the journal i left 2GB, how come its running out of cache? or is that the journal cache that it flushes to disk? I've also managed to lock up the system, and just trying to pin point the problem. This is a 7.1R just upgraded to 7.2 with GPT + gmirror + gjournal with GENERIC kernel. All SSH no data. Local console is locked as well, but the num lock light turns on/off. I had gstat running, and all disk activity went to zero before it locked. I'm just cp -av from one gmirror to the new gmirror with journal. I've done it twice so far, with about 1 hour of copying and it'll lock up.

smbfs
Hi Ive installed smbfs from ports, and when I went to rename files in /usr/local/etc and /usr/local/etc/rc.d , the conf file and startup script are not there. During install I get "smbfs-1.4.1 OS versions subsequent to 440002 include smbfs." I am assuming that means that everything after 4.0 release include smbfs, If that is the case why are nsmb.conf and smbfs.sh not where they are supposed to be. I did a make deinstall and it said not installed skipping. I am running 4.7 On two intel servers a l440gx and a stl2 I am trying to mount some win2k discs on the stl2 machine that acts as a file server for the l440gx which is running Apache. I currently have Samba running to the point that I have Icons for the two bsd boxes on my win2k machine, but have not set up shares yet. Any pointers or maps to information would be greatly appreciated.
