Re: Backup Solutions
Just so the original question does get answered, I have successfully used Backup Exec to backup FreeBSD/Linux/Solaris boxes with no real pain to mention. Veritas attempts to hide the fact they have agents for UNIX within backup exec but they are present, you just have to do a little digging on the Veritas web site. The only catches to the entire setup if you wish to use BackupExec is that the backup server must be a windows machine and for backing up FreeBSD machines you must use compat linux.

RE: DNS and natd
I've never tried it with natd on freebsd but I have on many routers just setup a loopback adapter which will allow your hosts which are inside to loopback into the webserver. I searched through the docs but I can't seem to find a specific example. Perhaps someone here has some experience with this setup. -Just as an example, my home web hiemstra.us is actually served by 192.168.1.20 on my LAN. -I don't have any funny DNS going on to get there. -My router figures out I actually need to get to 68.165.225.111 and routes the requests through the loopback -I get the desired page delivered I'm not 100% sure this is feasible in freebsd but it should be.

RE: daemon to listen on localhost only?
Is there a way to tell a daemon to listen only to the localhost without using a firewall? As others have stated, check the daemon you are trying to run but many can also run via tcpserver (http://cr.yp.to/ucspi-tcp/tcpserver.html).

The default ftpd will work with a little tweaking. 1. touch /bin/ftpshell 2. echo /bin/ftpshell /etc/shells 3. When you add your users, set their shell to /bin/ftpshell 4. echo USERNAME /etc/ftpchroot The users will be able to login via ftp and nothing else because there shell is a crap fake shell.

Did you say you are running a server? That MB is only suitable for desktop use, as it has the slowest ethernet controller known to man on a 32/33Mhz bus. Running this MB as a server is like putting cheap, skinny tires on your porsche. DT Personaly, I appreciate your dedication to maximum performance but please notice this thread is in reference to swapping a MB for another MB and coments like yours are not appreciated.

Please notice I never said what the box was doing nor did I ask for your opinion of what MB/NIC I use in my systems. This SERVER is purpose built and runs stable 24/7 as a low volume outbound mail server so the performance of the NIC is not my primary concern.
