remote startup scripts
Hello, I have a setup where /usr/local is actually not a local file system. It's NFS. My problem is that the initialization scripts doesn't seem to consider that startup scripts could be remote. Am I right or are there options that I missed yet? Please don't tell me that /usr/local is intended for local files. Imagine that you have /usr/remote additionally.

Re: My questions about freeBSD
Hello, Robustness: - Does FreeBSD offer Load-Balancinglike Piranha, with the standard packages? This can be supported be clustering software or by dispatching service requests to different instances of the same server. - - Does it offer Failover with the standard packages? This can be supported be clustering software or by dispatching service requests to different instances of the same server. FreeBSD doesn't support clustering. - Is it possible to make a persistent image of the status of the running OS? This is needed to freeze the system and late continue computation with the same internal state. No. - Is it possible to set the maximum allowed system resources for any process? To support real time system, some kind of partitioning or resource ensurance is needed. Yes. Security: - What security mechanisms does free BSD offer on the network and data link layer? In target solution the security of the other layers (transport and application) are handled by the running applications and the middleware. A lot. What do you need? - Availability, Acess Control and Integrity are important. What does FreeBSD offer to support these kinds of security? http://www.trustedbsd.org/ - Is there a way to ensure Non-repudiation on a FreeBSD system? The system is security critical and might handle credit card information and other data to identify persons. Is it possible to link this data to user action on the OS level? Everything is possible if you employ competent developers. - Are tools provided for browsing audit trails? - Are security violations automatically logged? - Is it possible to add custom monitors to the standard auditing? - Are tools provided to create from auditing trails custom reports? Yes. Yes. Yes. Depends on what you expect. http://www.trustedbsd.org/openbsm.html - Is it possible to audit all transaction of the system or specify what transaction to audit? Yes. Support: - Is there commercial developer support for freeBSD available? There is no official commercial support for the standard distribution, but there are many companies that develop embedded solutions with FreeBSD. Most likely these companies offer support for their FreeBSD-based products. - Do freeBSD drivers for ARINC 429 exist? - - Do freeBSD drivers for the CAN bus exist? - - Do freeBSD drivers for ADFX exist? Maybe somebody out there wrote such drivers. Probably closed source. I don't know. At least they are not part of the standard distribution.

They emailed me and told me the following: - IP block is 1234:1234:1234::/48 - gateway is ::1 That is all they told me. So my first instinct was to ifconfig an alias on em0 with inet6, and then add a inet6 default route. BUT, I keep reading that with ipv6 you don't want to manually configure addresses and routes - there is some kind of fancy autoconfigure you can do with your gateway so that you don't need to manually configure the addresses (?) So two questions: - is there indeed some fancy autoconfigure, and I don't need to manually ifconfig and 'route add inet6 default' Add the following line in /etc/rc.conf ipv6_enable=YES This is enough to let FreeBSD configure the interface with IPv6 automatically using router solicitation. - if not, assuming I just want to assign a single ipv6 address to myself (let's say, ::2, since ::1 is the gateway) what is the ifconfig syntax to add that one ipv6 address to my NIC (em0) as an alias that will not interfere with the ipv4 address that is already there ? ifconfig_fxp4=inet ipv4 ifconfig_fxp4_alias0=inet ipv4 ifconfig_fxp4_alias1=inet6 1234:1234:1234::2/64 ifconfig_fxp4_alias2=inet6 1234:1234:1234::3/64 Thanks. Think of it in the same way as Static/DHCP v4 works. Static machines have manually assigned addresses, dynamic/moving clients have autoconfigure by dhcp. It works in a similiar way, you will need to configure ip addresses using ifconfig em0 inet6 as normal. Autoconfiguration is not intended to be done by DHCP. There may be a router advertising daemon rtadvd(8) running on the gateway that answers router solicitation requests of hosts in the network. Nevertheless DHCPv6 has been designed to offer IP to requesting clients. Unfortunately there is no DHCPv6 daemon available that implements this feature as far as I know, not even the WIDE-DHCPv6 daemon (net/dhcp6).

Re: FreeBSD Ports vs. Gentoo Portage (a matter of concept)
FreeBSD Prospect schrieb: [...] Now I am wondering, how this is even possible considering the following: - Portage divides all software into three states: hardmasked, masked unstable/testing (~arch) and stable (arch). - In ports there is no such difference, which means the lastest software is just available using the usual port management features, without the need to fiddle around with unmasking something, to be able to install it. In most cases (even the usual desktop stuff, like Gnome KDE) software in ports is more up-to-date than in portage. That means, to be able to compare Gentoo Linux with FreeBSD, you would have to run a pure unstable (~arch) Gentoo system, which is generally not recommended, and especially not for a production system. So how is it possible, that FreeBSD is considered to be more suited as a production environment, if it runs the latest software-versions, which are considered unstable/testing in Gentoo? [...] I think this has something to do with the responsibility of the operating system. Typical Linux-based systems, including Gentoo, attach importance to the package manager and the software that they provide. FreeBSD is mainly a kernel and a set of well maintained userland tools and services. Everything beyond this is more a kind of meeting the system administrator halfway. This requires from the administrator that he know what he is doing, that he visit websites routinely and read news and security bulletins regularyly instead of blindly updating software. I don't want to say that I disfavour the way of Gentoo, because it can support the administrator significantly. I just want to say, that the FreeBSD ports are much older and therefore they don't take those aspects in account. If you ask why it's not there then the answer would be that nobody implemented it. The answer to the question why it is considered as suitable for production environment depends on the kind of this environment. Look at Debian; why is this distribution a good choice for production environments although they provide software that you can find in a museum? Because most production environments requires stability for the purpose of changelessness. You don't want the latest and best software, but rather thoughtfulness. The way of Debian is to let the package maintainers think about the available software; the way of FreeBSD is to let the administrator think about it.

This should work always.

Re: make buildworld

When something like this happens, is there a way to restart the make where it died? Is there an easy way to build the specific module that failed to get the complete errors? In this case the module was /usr/libexec/telnet. I went to /usr/src/ libexec/telnet and did a make. It completed without any problems. So, I ended up restarting the make from the top again, but would like to know for future situations. Thanks. Try make -DNO_CLEAN buildworld next time.

Re: 3D Hardware Graphics
Jon schrieb: Hello all, I'm wondering how to get 3D Hardware graphics going under FreeBSD.

Can I increase the size of the existing swap partition or do I have to create a new one?

This is not necessary because if you install with pkg_add -r the

the software has been installed.

Re: Mounting a linux partition under freebsd
Guillaume R. schrieb: I can't mount a linux partition under freebsd with the -t ext3fs option could someone explain me how I could mount a linux partition under freebsd? FreeBSD has limited support for ext2, therefore you can mount it as ext2 filesystem only. You can convert the filesystem between ext2 and ext3 without data loss by just executing fsck. Run fsck.ext2 from the e2fsprogs package first. Now you can mount it with mount_ext2fs and access data. Finally after you have unmounted it you need run fsck.ext3 to recreate the filesystem journal. I got an other question: how could I obtain a human readable output of fdisk to know the content in terms of partition of my disk? In case you get used to use linux fdisk, you might get lucky with the ncurses based program cfdisk-linux from the linuxfdisk package. ;-) Björn ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
