from:"Peter"

Hi,

I have 2 fiber lines and using pfsense(freebsd) I can easily use them
for backup of LAN -- Internet traffic i.e when primary is down, second
line kick in automatically.  However when one line is down all
connections Internet -- LAN to certain service(e.g www) via that
connection are down as expected.

My question is: is there some smart(e.g DNS) solution that can help me
overcome this ?

Thanks,

Peter

Not sure what is the best way nowadays to get own /24 or at least /26 ?
I wonder if there is second hand ip market :-)

Hi,

Lines are from 2 different ISPs and evn come physically via different
route  - protection again construction workers :-) Basically to be fair
I need one single IP to have such fail over  - the Citrix server.

However really not sure what is the best way - the only feasible
solution I found so far is DNS faiolver
http://www.dnsmadeeasy.com/services/dns-failover-system-monitoring/.
However I am not 100% sure how well it will work and if this may cause
more troubles and embarrassment in front of the customer than simply
giving them  in a email

gate1.example.com(primary)
gate2.example.com(backup)

to connect.

Cheers,

Re: FreeBSD slices and the Boot Manager

2013-07-28 Thread Peter Andreev

Why wouldn't you simply update your 8.1 to 8.4?

2013/7/27 Conny Andersson atar...@telia.com

Hi,

I have a workstation with two factory installed hard disks. The first
disk, ada0, is occupied by a Windows 7 Pro OS (mainly kept for the three
year warranty of the workstation as Dell techs mostly speak the Microsoft
language).

Instead I have configured the BIOS to boot from the MBR on the second disk
as I most of the time (99%) use FreeBSD. The MBR on ada1 was installed with
sysinstall's option Install the FreeBSD Boot Manager, when I installed
the FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE.

(The latest BIOS version 2.4.0 for Dell T1500 does not support
UEFI/GPT/GUID.)

The second disk ada1, now has three FreeBSD slices:

1) ada1s1 with FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE

2) ada1s2 with FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE

3) ada1s3 with FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE

I want to install the new FreeBSD 8.4-RELEASE on ada1s1 by overwriting the
now existing two first slices. This means that ada1s3, must become ada1s2
instead. Is this possible to do?

A very important question is if sysinstall's option Install the FreeBSD
Boot Manager detects that I have a FreeBSD 8.3 and detect it as slice 2 on
disk 1? So it becomes a boot option when I am rebooting? (Maybe the slice
may come up as ad6s2, because AHCI in FreeBSD 8.4 isn't enabled at the time
of the install.)

If the answer to these questions is yes, then the next two questions arise.

Can I mount ada1s2a (FreeBSD 8.3) from the newly installed FreeBSD 8.4 and
edit my FreeBSD's 8.3-R /etc/fstab according to the new disk layout, and
occasionally run FreeBSD 8.3 without problems? Or do I have to do more to
get it to work?

The idea behind this kind of 'reverse' disk layout of mine is to have
FreeBSD 8.4 as my new default OS. And have FreeBSD 8.3 untouched for
configuring FreeBSD 8.4 and booting into it when ever needed. If I can do
this as described above, I will have plenty of space on the disk for the
future and a new FreeBSD release.

Thanks for your interest in my questions,

Conny Andersson

stack overflow

2013-06-29 Thread Peter Laurie


Hi

I'm working on a program using FreeBSD v 1.7.

This project has been going for years and has a lot of functions calls 
some using far more arguments than these. I've never seen this error before.


I have one funct8ion that has suddenly refused to run because on the 
call I get a 'stack overflow' message.


I'm passing a pointer to a structure and then 5 ints. Everything is 
fine, but I need to pass a bit more data. If I pass a sixth int I get 
the overflow message.


I've increased the stack from the default 4096 to 20 * 1024 * 1024 
without effect.


Yours Peter Laurie

Which is the parser plugin for encoding trig?

Hi,

some ports on my 9.1-STABLE fail with this message:

I found some mails mentioning this problem in the archives and tried to
reinstall sysutils/raptor2 - as recommended - but the error remains the
same.

Any ideas?

Re: which reader/tablet/whatever

On 2013, Jun 9, at 19:13, Gary Kline kl...@thought.org wrote:

can I put
   freebsd on these tablet devices?

Personally, I don't see how another O.S. would work on the tablet devices.  
They don't have any of the hardware other O.S.'s assume (such as a keyboard), 
and they have such proprietary hardware.  The hardware is so touch centric, 
than running a non-touch O.S. does not seem wise, but I could be wrong.


  if I bought, say, WAR AND PIECE
   or something out of copyright  { schopenhauer or marcus aurelius }
   that is in text, how do I get it to whatever tablet I have?  
   right now we've got cable and I use the telco for my server.
   I know that works, but it is only good for my computer network.
 
   but say I wanted to keep things simple and buy some kind of kindle
   or nook.  how does amazon.com or bn.com get their new ebooks onto
   my reader?


All of the tablet type devices I'm aware of can access the internet through 
WiFi, which allows them to download the various books.  Many of them now also 
have a 4g type cellular antenna which can be used (with a subscription for 
network access through your favorite telecom) to download your favorite book.

I admit I'm most familiar with putting books on Apple tablet devices.  PDFs or 
ePubs can be e-mailed to the device, which opens well in their reading app.  
The devices allow any text (including I suppose, plain text) on the screen to 
be spoken by the device.

 I looked at the code and there don't seem to be any arbitrary
 limits. The code isn't optimized for really large numbers of entries,
 but 600 isn't what I'd consider large in this context.

 I ran a simple shell script and had no problems entering many thousands
 of static ARP entries, so my interpretation from reading the code isn't
 horribly wrong. I think you need to find out what kind of problems they
 ran into at 600 entries.

 As a (maybe-irrelevant) side point, I don't know what you mean by IXP,
 since in my background the term means Internet eXchange Point, and
 isn't likely to get anywhere close to 600 ARP entries on a single
 subnet.

 Oh, a friendly soul. To ditch pulseaudio I told speech-dispatcher to use

 I can't build port for now due too -Werror. Clang shrieks about really

 whereas gcc4.6 says the same about gssapi.h.

Thanks both for the feedback. Having waited this far, I think I might hang on a 
little longer before attempting the upgrade.

Hi,

I currently run this one:

with pfsense 2 (it is freebsd too)

Works great :)

The only problems I see so far is when I push it at 90+ Mb/s it start to
have issues with load but if do not plan such high speeds it work like
charm..Kind of expensive though...

9.1-release bridge config at startup not working

2013-04-03 Thread Peter Hunčár

Hello list

After pretty much of googling I was able to make this bridge setup up and
running:

cloned_interfaces=bridge0
ifconfig_bridge0=addm igb6 addm igb7
ifconfig_bridge0_alias0=inet x.x.x.x netmask x.x.x.x
ifconfig_igb6=up
ifconfig_igb7=up

however I'm running xorp pim multicast router on the box as well and it
complains about not being able to get the primary IP address of bridge0.
And I need xorp running on that subnet.
(after manually assigning an IP to bridge0, bridge0 becomes unresponsive)

I tried autobridge according to some sparse documentation found, but
autobridge with setup:

cloned_interfaces=bridge0
autobridge_interfaces=bridge0
autobridge_bridge0=igb6 igb7
ifconfig_bridge0=inet x.x.x.x netmask x.x.x.x
ifconfig_igb6=up
ifconfig_igb7=up

does not start at all. I end up with having only igb6 added in bridge0
without an IP address.

Well, I would gladly live without a bridge ;) if somebody could give me a
hit how to protect a group of servers on the same subnet as the router is.
Without a need of NAT or IP changes.
I need a DMZ, so I thought I'd simply put the boxes behind a filtered
bridge.
Seems like it's not that easy as it sound.

Thank you very much for any kind of help/advice

 You don't actually need to reboot for each trial. Running sysctl(8) from
 the command line will do. And /dev/sndstat would probably tell you the
 right value to try. These things are covered in the Handbook..

  You have no driver attached on your modem, so maybe that's worth

  at.

 Don't know.
 But stepping back, do you have snd_hda loaded?
 ( Silly me, should have been the first question. )

Sorry for the late reply, been away from the keyboard for a while.

I'm not loading snd_hda separately, but it's definitely there:

root@thinkpad:/home/peter # kldload snd_hda
kldload: can't load snd_hda: File exists

I've seen that blog and a couple of other sites describing configure FreeBSD on 
the X60, and they all seem to infer that sound works without a problem.

So for the moment at least I'm stumped.

Thanks for trying to help.

Cheers,

pkg_updating -d

2013-03-11 Thread Peter Clark

Hello,

I am new to using pkg_updating -d to look at new entries in 
/usr/ports/UPDATING. From what I have read I should be able to just use:
# pkg_updating -d 20130301  (for example)

And that should give me everything in /usr/ports/UPDATING newer than that date. 
When I run that command I get:

h264 streaming and lighttpd

2013-03-03 Thread Zyumbilev, Peter

Hi,


Port /usr/ports/www/lighttpd-mod_h264_streaming seems broken.

It installs just fine, lighttpd runs but at the moment I enable
h264_streaming module it dies like this:

kernel: pid 50660 (lighttpd), uid 80: exited on signal 11

Nothing in error log.

Without the module lighttpd runs like charm.

Configuration is default, not changes except port number, FreeBSD version:

8.3-RELEASE-p3 FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE-p3

Any hints ?

Thanks,

   given there is a FreeBSD system with users in the wheel group,

  I'm not sure if there already is a solution (provided in the
  base system) that offers this functionality, but the fact of
  a user having used su to su root is logged by the system.
  The line is appended to /var/log/messages:
  
  Feb 12 14:40:57 r56 su: poly to root on /dev/pts/2
  
  The information you want is in there, and you could either use
  the whole line, or apply some sed, awk or even perl to form a
  message with less information (only date and user).
  
  A scripted solution could monitor /var/log/messages for changes
  and use the system's builtin mailer to deliver the message. Tools
  like tail -f, grep and | mail could be involved. It should
  be quite trivial to implement this and add a custom rc.d-style
  script (or even few lines in ye olde /etc/rc.local).
 
   Take a look at the -p option of split.
   The bigger question is how quickly do you need to know -
 instantly?  once an hour?  once a day?

Hello.

2013/01/31 18:44:30 + Walter Hurry walterhu...@gmail.com = To 
freebsd-questions@freebsd.org :

WH What, for example, is the problem with compiling Firefox 18 from the port?
WH 
WH It takes about an hour to compile on my main box (9.1 Release on- 
WH x86_64), which has nothing special at all by way of hardware.

It use to take me a day (~20h) to rebuild each of: www/firefox,
www.seamonkey, mail/thunderbird.

In general I'm satisfied with speed of their work though.

Starting from v17 upgrades I experience the problem I can't see the solution
so I even don't ask about it. The details is that for all the 3 ports almost
everything builds and then while linking the main (or almost the main) binary
the compiler gets to lose the 'JSAutoCompartment.o'.

I know I can buy some cloud to rebuild but is it of any rational if every
hardware-like-mine owner shall follow this way when we can have it
centralized?

Thank you.

 Ok I read the archive thread subject jails.
 You read a reply pointing you to a French howto.
 
 http://blog.etoilebsd.net/post/Emprisonner_une_debian_dans_un_FreeBSD
 
 I don't read French so have no idea what you did.
 In another post you said you did this procedure
 1. Use
 http://download.openvz.org/template/precreated/debian-6.0-x86.tar.gz
 instead of the file listed in the French howto.
 2. Run sysctl compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.32 in Freebsd shell before
 starting the jail, otherwise you will get error kernel too old.
 
 Don't understand what you mean by shell in the the above #2 sentence.
 
 The info you provided is so lacking in details. People here on the list
 are not going to try to duplicate your steps just to get a understanding
 of your situation.
 
 When asking a question it's your job to describe in detail what your
 situation is. What your trying to achieve by using a jail. What
 applications you installed in your jail. The jail statements you used to
 create your jail. So on and so forth.
 
 No details results in no replies.
 If you want helpful replies start with more and better details.
 
 From a very general point of view. You can populate a jails directory
 tree with anything you want and the jail will still start. Having the
 jail start does not mean anything you put in side of the jail is
 working. Which is what I think is happening in your case.
 
 With out details I can not help you any further.
 
 Good luck.
 
 



Hi,

I know chances are slim someone to help. I believe my question is asked
right. Even if noone can help it was worth asking - at least you learned
that debian can run inside Freebsd :-) You know the idea is everyone to
learn from this.

'svn-export' incrementing?

2013-01-22 Thread Peter Vereshagin

Hello.

I use the 'svn-export this way and expect it will try to update the
'work-tree' next time I run it:

  $ python3 svn-export-2013.1/svn-export http://svn.gna.org/svn/nasmail/trunk 
nasmail
  Exporting new repository.
  Exported revision 1546
  [portato@screwed /tmp]$ ls -a nasmail
  .   decode  plugin_pack tests   utilities
  ..  nasmail plugins translations
  [portato@screwed /tmp]$ python3 svn-export-2013.1/svn-export 
http://svn.gna.org/svn/nasmail/trunk nasmail
  Exporting new repository.
  svn: E155000: Destination directory exists; please remove the directory or 
use --force to overwrite
  svn: E155000: 'nasmail' already exists
  error: Command '['svn', 'export', '-r', 'HEAD', 
'http://svn.gna.org/svn/nasmail/trunk', 'nasmail']' returned non-zero exit 
status 1

I believe there is something wrong in the way I use the 'svn-export'.
Otherwise it's a no problem for me to patch for '--force'.

How can I update the already created 'work tree' with 'svn update'? I think
the correct answer is a good idea for 'Synopsis' docs section.

Thank you.

I suppose the latter is what the perl5 in general and cpan (cpan-testers at

I'd disclose that following TIMTOWTDI the so called 'modern perl' and a
'perl6' can be used to reconsider on this.

For the case of following the former line the switch to python may (or may not)
happen to be the (good) difference about such a freebsd-related task. Will

svn bdb checkout?

Hello.

By far the 'portsnap' has a lag from svn. I think firefox-18.0,1 update was
late at 4 days at the least, for instance.

Thus I'd like to move to svn for base and ports.

The only problem for me personally with svn is: its multiple '.svn'
directoriees all over the repo.

This is what I get checkouting every possible svn repository on the web.

I've heard about 'bdb' kind of storage on the contrast from 'fsfs' which is
what I complain about, the my '.svn's trouble source.

So I'd like to know how could I checkout the sources without those '.svn'
freakages. Just couldn't ixquick it out.

The only possible way I know by the moment is: svn dump | svn restore kind of
from the checked out repo to the newly created 'bdb' one. But I even have no
idea if it can be updated from the same source again.

And, 'bdb' svn backend is known of its lack of reliability. Should I treat it
seriously in such a case, e. g., the repositories are a kind of large?

Any clues?

Thank you.

JANJ As far as I know, you don't. It is part of how svn works. Those folders
JANJ tell svn that they are controlled by svn.

This is for the case of the svn's 'fsfs' backend.

There is the different backend, the 'bdb' one that keeps data not in the
'.svn' subdirectories but in the 'bdb' format and it's the repository(-ies)
-wide single database with its single file system location.

JANJ Deleting the .svn folder removes subversion control of that folder[0].
JANJ You can learn more, it seems, here[1].

No, I do not want to delete the '.svn' directories but I want them to not to
be created at all, like it was created with 'svnadmin create --fs-type bdb'
but as a resuit of a checkout.

There was someone here arguing about 'fossil' that (s)he updates from the
freebsd  repositories into the 'bdb'- backend'ed  svn repo, I'd like to know
a way to 'svn checkout' like this at first.

Thank you.

My question was: is it a good thing for freebsd project to rely on a
third-party services now for such a sensitive thing like lists indexing/search?

I remember it didn't in the past having an own full-text index. Is it a change?

Expected is: to have a 'search' link from mailing list's page. Why shall I
choose on my own that blindly? Third party index can be unknown to overlook
some stuff.

Aha! found it:

Problem was that this page: http://www.freebsd.org/community/mailinglists.html
was kind of 'Not found' the last time I visited it. (Navigation bar and an

Although I wish such a corresponding link to be found on the list's 'mailman's

PV A 'why not', too. (=

There's a thing about 'svn-export': It requires 'threaded' build of the perl
known to be inappropriate for the production environment (if I'm not mistaken:
this may be obsoltete). At the least this is in the lang/perl5.16/Makefile:

  .if defined(WITH_THREADS)
  #XXX .if ${ARCH} == amd64
  #XXX IGNORE=Threaded perl does not pass tests on ${ARCH}
  #XXX .endif
  CONFIGURE_ARGS+=-Dusethreads=y
  PKGNAMESUFFIX=  -threaded
  WITH_PTHREAD=   yes
  # it seems perl malloc has problems with threaded perl on FreeBSD
  .undef WITH_PERL_MALLOC
  .else
  CONFIGURE_ARGS+=-Dusethreads=n
  .endif

I believe 'amd64' is the common architecture these days and 'perl malloc' is the
feature needed for profiling and/or leaks detection.

Good news is that such a stuff can be redone with forks instead of threads but
it should take me the time amount I'm not supposed to have of the any early.

By itself perl threading has a fabulously bad luck history, recently
criticized for instance at: 

  https://speakerdeck.com/stevan_little/perl-is-not-dead-it-is-a-dead-end

 I assume multimedia/ffmpeg1 just needs an update
 

1.1 has REALLY cool features - burn subtitles for example. Also I am
crossing fingures to solve some strange problems I experience 1.0.

Re: Reading the handbook from console

2013-01-14 Thread Peter Vereshagin

Hello.

TM On my now-older computer (from July 2001, 256 MB RAM), svgalib ran on 
FreeBSD but was very crash-prone.
TM 
TM svgalib in Linux was erratic and caused color distortions when switching to 
an X window.
TM 
TM So I decided I wanted no part of svgalib on the new computer, FreeBSD or 
Linux.
TM 
TM Use ASCII art or framebuffer?

If you're about to ascii then I'd say that 'svgatextmode' was great when I used 
linux.

And, I don't believe the 'frame buffer' stuff is usable in freebsd.

Thank you.

 netstat isn't allowed in traditional jails (but is allowed in vimage jails 
 which have their own network stack).
 
 If you're able/willing to compile a new kernel to enable the VIMAGE 
 feature, then this can be improved so that you can indeed use netstat within 
 the jail.
 
 NOTE: netstat is not allowed within traditional (non-VIMAGE) jails due to 
 security restrictions.
 

My  host os is Nas4Free and is stripped version of freebsd - e.g I
cannot even compile ports - that is why I use jails - so no new kernel
for me there :)

So far I am quite happy with it  - I use it mainly as DLNA
server(Serviio), ZFS,UPS support  Transmission made it quite good
platform - would take plenty of time to get all this in plain FreeBSD
install.

The only thing that I might be missing is Plex, but due to lack browser
per folder feature, I will stick to open standard - DLNA.

download port directory/tarvall ?

Hello.

I used to download the selected port's directory from cvsweb.

Now cvsweb seems to be not updated any more.

I am missing this feature from svnweb.freebsd.org.

Is there any way to download the particular port's directory?

Tried with 'svn co' but it downloads all of the ports without directory
selection, or did I overlook a thing?

Thank you.

 I would strongly advise connect to the modem via network cable and TCP/IP.
 
 Since the modem is a PCI card, plugging it into the computer and
 connecting to it over the PCI bus is required. Talking to the device
 through the serial driver is correct.
 
 First it's necessary to know whether this card requires a firmware
 download. I would guess probably not, but I can't find any definitive
 information on it to be sure. 
 
 Second it's necessary to know what kind of connection the ISP expects it
 to make, in order to configure it. Very likely either mpd or ppp will be
 able to work with it. The appropriate serial device may be the one at
 the start of the line preceding the pciconf output we were shown.
 
 


I doubt newbie can do all this. The only viable option I see is a DSL
modem as a separate device.

 This path does not exist on ftp.freebsd.org.
 
 Quite so.  It's because of this:
 
 http://www.freebsd.org/news/2012-compromise.html
 
 As a consequence, large parts of the package building infrastructure are
 quarantined, pending reinstallation.  Also there is a lot of work going
 into revising the software used to build the packages with security
 enhancements in mind.  So there simply aren't packages available yet to
 go with 9.1-RELEASE.

It is not clear if you want to install FreeBSD on your modem? That depends on
its model.

OH in favour over a port installation, but if there is a sophisticated
OH software, I would appreciate a hint or tip.

It's kind of unlikely that FreeBSD 'base system' does have a tool(s) to
measure the DSL quality characteristics.  Depending on your modem's model you
can have a telnet(1) interface to it from your FreeBSD server to look up for
line quality information via modem's specific commands by hand.

But telnet(1) doesn't seem to be the notifying tool you think you need. It
should be nothing complicated to make such a tool or install the ready-to-use
software from the FreeBSD Ports system.

Same can go here about the web interface your modem can be controlled by
saying not about the telnet(1) but about web browser, correspondently.

'creating a freebsd kernel portage' as I see this task. If so then 'debian'

MP [snip]
MP  
MP  What if being a proper sysadm means ability to deploy a package on
MP  thousands (tens of thaousands, etc.) of machines? In formal terms this
MP  means create a package and install on the every machine. This cannot be a
MP  several packages because this makes the whole task less quick and the
MP  solution less reliable. And the creation of such a package can be a more
MP  trivial task for sysadm than the such of a package installation or upgrade
MP  by itself.
MP  
MP  Such a metaport can be a person-scale/company-wide solution, not a public
MP  one so no harm for the general freebsd usage approaches/pphilosophy which
MP  is a kind of a public stuff.
MP  
MP I completely agree with this. However, noting the most recent email it 
looks 
MP as if he still hasn't quite got the hang of installing software on FreeBSD 
MP yet. I believe there is a chapter in the Handbook devoted to it. 

I shoudn't ever judge about what the other side did or didn't (read or didn't
read, know or doesn't know). But it's me.

MP One would still need to learn how to install software on FreeBSD in order 
to 
MP make use of a meta port; after all - it is still the same process. I do not 
MP think a meta port is a solution for not learning how to install software. 

But metaport build/install process can give a clue about the what it is. Ain't
it a 'learning how to install software'?

MP My suggestion is centered around the idea that learning to install software 
MP is a prerequisite to using a meta port. I think we should be guiding him 
MP towards acquiring that understanding, then if such a meta port comes into 
MP being he will be able to make use of it as well. 
MP 
MP I do not disagree with the potential utility of a meta port. This is a 
MP 'horse before the cart' situation where one cannot replace the other. We 
MP should be helping him learn how to install software. A meta port should be 
a 
MP separate issue of its own, and not be attempting to replace not knowing how 
MP to install software.

I hate methodologies and teaching. But here are my cents:

  - Such a metaport creation task can motivate him on learning about the
'porting and installing software for freebsd' topic by himself.  Ain't it
great for him and easy for us than learning here about his typically
known beforehand small steps on that way?

  - Horse before the cart is a problem when it's a vice-versa only.

compiling the Famp package (Freebsd, apache, mysql, php) i would like to ask 
the developers to compile a package that its a one select and install which 
will do everything for the famp server rather than downloading selecting 
extensions, installing this and that exectra. 

I think this can be implemented as a 'metaport'. You may try to make it 
yourself or ask someone else e. g., me.

KBe Do you mean something like misc/instant-server in ports? I never use 
KBe that port, only noticed some days ago. Maybe this can be used/ajdusted?

Probably to copy from an existing portto create a new one isn't a best idea but
prehaps it is a good start to get the things done.

About the what I know to be exactly a 'metaport' is lang/php5-extensions.

Why not just keep a list of ports or packages? I believe the modern management
tools (portmaster/portupgrade) can install them smoothly in one command.

If the what you want is a binary package then what if the 'pkgng' stuff has or
will have such a feature: to bundle a metaport in a package?

And, the pc-bsd (http://www.pcbsd.org) seem to have such an AMP package out of
the box (or downloaded via its package manager)

  Hello.
 
  it's a -questions@ here, right? (=
 
 Indeed. :-)

Ouch! it's already not... But I Cc: there. Oops?

  What's a specific of the case?
 
 I need quite a lot of such jails, with some being able to see others,
 including the case where one jail may be visible to many. However, a
 jail being visible does not mean it can be modified by the observing
 jail.

Did you specify elsewhere what a 'visible' does mean to you?

  - if this means network connectivity then you can put jails on the same
network, e. g. the same address on a lo(4) interface

  - if this means a read-only access to the directory located outside of a
jail then her4e is the trick:

  mount_nullfs -o ro /path/to/inject /your/jail/mount/detination

 The first implementation I thought of was using users and groups. I imagine
 I can do this with jails and read-only mounts, but I would like to avoid
 making a clean system per jail since disk space would not be enough.

The same trick can be done for every directory the freebsd base system
consists of. Excluding those different for each jail, e. g. /var, /etc. Nullfs
daesn't consume your disk space except for additional fstab lines, something
about a dozen per jail. (=

 Also, the configuration of such environment is much, much simpler than
 a jails version.

I don't think so. It's a task of the configuration of a second system without
hardware initialization and so on, and then spreading your configs around
other jails.

 To be sincere, I have not discarded the possibility of a jails solution
 with clever mounts to preserve space, but it did not occur to me yet.
 
  What changes?
 
 Changing the default permissions on devices (e.g sound),

jail goes beyond with its jail_devfs_rules

 not allowing
 any file to be setuid and be visible to ordinary users,

What do you mean 'visible' here? Do you just chmod a-rwx on them? Say, to
avoid listing the /usr/bin/su you should chmod a-rx /usr/bin which is far from
the best idea...

 patching some ports to avoid attacks on /tmp
 (X server),

Sounds interesting but doesn't seem googleable to me. Any URLs for xorg
patches and/or for the list of such a ports please?

 exercising memory and process limits via rctl,

Ouch! a RELENG_9 feature... 

  changing
 some system configurations (see_other_uids, etc), disabling access to
 the system log, stopping useless (to me) daemons, setting per user
 ZFS quotas and probably a few more I can't remember at the moment.
 
  What kind of danger is this? This system info expose seems nothing to do 
  with
  making the system work unexpectedly.
 
 Indeed, but then all users might infer which programs are running and when.

How could the one know out that from overall system statistics only?

 It's not about consistency loss, it's about privacy loss.

ok but that can be the loss of a privacy of some other user?

  You didn't mention you must have an outside network connection. Should your
  untrusted software have it? Just unplug it otherwise.
 
 The untrusted software runs for a reason, and that is I need its output.
 Some outputs are not that amenable to verification (pdf files for instance),
 and I can not exclude the possibility I myself might post some of these
 outputs online, for instance. They may however, contain the logs.

Sure. You can convert PDFs to the set of images, reassemble them into your own
PDFs without the logs and post then.

So without the need for the outside network connectivity there shouldn't be
much  care. (=

  You can make the special chroot/jail environment for the users keeping them
  away from the access to the binaries exposing sysctls. And permit them the
  write access only to the volumes mounted as '-o noexec'.
 
  There should be the way(s) to bypass this, at the least one of the  
  DSLs  e. g.
  ruby, python, perl, php used in that environment may provide API for sysctls
  or the modules can be built to use sysctl api from C. Thus you should keep
  your C compiler and any of the soucres e. g. /usr/src to present on that
  environment.
 
  Even with that who knows if your software doesn't use sysctl(3)  
  functions. But
  the 'basic user programs' shouldn't.
 
 That is a real solution for the problem I have asked. However, for my
 use cases not being able to produce executables is too restrictive.
 
  I don't think it's possible at the moment. Do you think this can be
  implemented without performance loss? Sysctl is a kind of the kernel 
  stuff...
 
 Assuming you did implement the user blocking code for the sysctls, I

Can't remind that. (=

 couldn't help but imagine the group one would be one added if that
 checks membership of an UID to a group.

Err... what?

  How about emaulators/qemu, virtualbox, etc?
 
 They are not security tools.

But they can hide the system statistics and improve the privacy, the what you
need having the consistency already? I have no idea if 'security

 Have you had an earlier version of blender running?
 
 The only reference to libirml I can find is as part of Intels compiler 
 package and it doesn't appear to be a part that the freebsd ports version of 
 icc installs. One guess is that you may be using icc or have in the past 
 leaving a dependency that was built with icc.
 
 While libirml seems to have some relation to tbb I don't see any reference 
 within devel/tbb. graphics/openimageio brings in the dependency for tbb so 
 you could try turning off the CYCLES option in blender to turn off that 
 dependency. libirml may also be related to openmp so try turning off OPENMP 
 as well.
 
 Maybe try turning off some other options to help pinpoint where it comes 
 from. CAMERATRACK CARVE CYCLES OCEANSIM are the newest additions.
 
 
 


Hi Shane,

If I understand your question correctly, then AFAICT the only way to

From what I remember the os/2 smb protocol implementation could share COM ports

Who knows if modern smb protocol implementations could do this, too.

 We're currently working towards the PCI DSS certification (Payment Card

 One of the prerequisites is that all user commands be logged.
 
 We're currently using a very bad hack that takes the last command from a
 user's history and sends it to a log server.
 
 This of course is unreliable as a user may entirely disable their
 history, or just use another shell to bypass the csh function or whatever.
 
 
 
 My colleagues installed Snoopy on debian and it seems to work wonders as
 a module which is LD preloaded.
 
 
 I notice it also exists on FreeBSD as /usr/ports/security/snoopy .
 
 
 However I face several problems with it, mainly it doesn't seem to log
 anything.
 
 
 
 As per the README, I have added /usr/local/lib/snoopy.so to
 /etc/ld.so.preload
 
 I'm not even sure this file is used on BSD ?
 
 As per the man page for ld.so there's no such file:
 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=ld.so
 
 Neither libmap.conf nor ldconfig(8) seem to be the answer either.
 
 
 
 I've googled for ld.so.conf and found the following 2 posts which seem
 to indicate it isn't used either:
 http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-hackers/2003-June/001746.html
 http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-hackers/2003-June/001747.html
 
 The posts mention -current but date back from 2003.
 
 
 
 Lastly, I have also noticed that the port installs /usr/local/bin/detect
 which I executed and would always reply something's fishy.
 
 By looking at the (very short) source I noticed the program merely loads
 /lib/libc.so.6 , and it wouldn't find it on my system (8.3-STABLE with
 /lib/libc.so.7).
 Adjusting and recompiling lets the program correctly print secure but
 it does nothing else.
 
 I have checked that the output /usr/local/lib/snoopy.so module is linked
 against libc.so.7 , and it is.
 
 
 
 Has anyone ever got Snoopy to work on BSD ?
 Might I need to install linux emulation ?
 
 Is there any other port that might do the job and which I could use ?

Kaya, if your http proxy handles HTTP CONNECT to the port 21/ftp this can be
the workaround for you about the freebsd ports requiring ftp download ability.

Most surprise for me is why no one is interested about what kind of a danger
the ftp protocol can ever be? i. e. skype is much more vicious in comparison to

KS http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html

1. cvsup is not about comparison to ftp. cvsup is a way to obtain fresh port
for the program distribution, ie set of patches, list of package's files,
sample configuration files for the particular program(s) those are not the part
of the base system but supplied with taking the OS specs in mind.

ftp is a way to obtain a distfile, ie what the 3rd party software developer use
to distribute. For FreeBSD ports cvsup and ftp are not competent in the daiy
use as they have different purposes.

Some 3rd party software is released and published authoritatively on ftp only.
And that is the only problem possible for you on ftp usage by freebsd ports.
But I believe there is only a few of them you need if any at all.

I guess you may want to download the initial ports tree tarball, the ports.tgz,
via the ftp. But it's certainly a) available over there via the http and b) is
outdated and is needed to be updated via the portsnap and/or cvsup.

2. Use csup from the base system, don't use cvsup from ports if you use its
protocol. And, portsnap seems to be even more recommended since some days.

KS which should be enough to get a demo up and running.
