Re: Faking a .mac server for Mac Backup

Hi all,

I'm trying to fake a mac server for Backup on my Mac. I'm using
FreeBSD with Apache 2.0.43 and SSL.

I've got an SSL server working on port 443 with a self signed
certificate. Connecting to this box with a browser, all looks ok both
with http:// and https://

Using Internet Preferences on the mac to setup a username and password
for my iDisk fails. I've checked the log file on the FreeBSD server,
and as it fails I'm getting the following message:

[Wed Jan 08 13:07:08 2003] [error] SSL handshake failed (server
www.mac.com:443, client 213.52.146.197)
[Wed Jan 08 13:07:08 2003] [error] SSL Library Error: 336151528
error:140943E8:lib(20):func(148):reason(1000)

Any idea what could be causing this and how I could fix it ? 

thanks in advance,

 

Is the server that you're trying to emulate the iServices on known as 
www.mac.com to your mac?  i.e; instead of the real Apple server?

I'm thinking (out loud) that you may need to spoof your Mac into 
thinking your BSD box is Apple's server to be able to get your mac to 
connect properly.  I believe that there's been some discussion of this 
at http://www.macosxhints.com as well.

Hm!

Hi Keith -

  Probably should keep the same thread going - I almost missed your 
reply on this - plus people use the archives to help solve issues :)

  I still think it's a permissions issue, but we can check a few other 
things as well.  What's the output of this command?

  $ps -aux | grep -i 'qmail-lspawn'

  On my system, this is what I get:

  nostromo:[~]  ps -aux | grep -i 'qmail-lspawn'
  root   164  0.0  0.2   892  196 con- I 6Dec02   0:01.20 
qmail-lspawn ./Maildir/

  Notice the preceding . and the trailing / on the Maildir - do you see 
the same thing?  If not, check your rc file in /var/qmail - it should 
have your delivery method (or, if your directions call for it, it may 
be in a file called defaultdelivery in the /var/qmail/controls 
directory).

  I know that Matt has made the install simple by making allot of 
perl scripts  - so check in both places.  It's common to miss the last 
/ or the . in the command.

Brian...I dont have such a /var/log/qmail/current

   :(



Look in your /var/qmail directory for a subdirectory called 
supervise.  This supposes that you've used the author's recommended 
way of running qmail (daemontools).

Inside that directory should be several other subdirectories - with 
names such as qmail-smtpd, qmail-pop3d, qmail-send (obviously depends 
on your individual installation).

Inside those subdirectories are subdirectories named log which have 
files named run in them.  These run files will show you where your 
logging is going (if anywhere).

For example, in my /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-send/log directory there 
is a file named run which contains:

#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/local/bin/setuidgid qmaill /usr/local/bin/multilog t 
/var/log/qmail

I'm using the author's multilog tool to send my logging to 
/var/log/qmail

Once you find the log files, post the error messages.  My guess is that 
it's a permission problem on the directories in question, and qmail 
can't write the mail.

You can also check the queue (/var/qmail/queue) and see if the messages 
are still there.

Boot Manager / Install

2002-12-16 Thread Brian Jackson
Hi -

 I have a question regarding installation - the handbook alluded to the

answer, but I'd like opinions from people who may have done this before :)

 My system is setup as follows:

 IDE Controller 0 : Drive 0 (jumpered as master) : Windows XP
 IDE Controller 0 : Drive 1 (jumpered as slave) : FreeBSD 4.7

 I'd like to be able to boot to either drive - but I'm not sure how to 
configure the Boot Manager to accomplish this.  I assume that I need to 
use Partition Magic or something similar to make space on drive 0 for 
the boot manager?  Can I just go into sysinstall and select disk 0, then

install the boot manager?

 Any How To's, URLs, or words of wisdom greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Brian

It seems like this was addressed in a thread that I missed (see Dual 
Booting FreeBSD 4.7 and Windows XP) - the boot manager didn't seem to 
install on the boot drive when I installed FreeBSD on my second disk - 
are there any special options to make sure this happens?  I'll give it 
another go tonight and see if I missed something obvious.

There are quite a few MTAs and POP daemons that will fit your needs - 
most of them live in /usr/ports/mail.

I've had great success with qmail - here are some sites for your

Hello,
I'm trying to find a guide/walk-through/howto on installing 
postfix/qmail on
freebsd, along with a pop3 server. I've been searching on google for 
awhile
now, anything i've found is old and/or doesn't talk about setting up 
pop3.

Please note that the use of inetd with qmail is not supported by the 
author or if you need help on the qmail mailing lists.

Use daemontools (http://cr.yp.to/daemontools.html) instead.  The pop 
daemon should be controlled by tcpserver, similar to the following:

#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 200 \
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -H -l 0 0 110 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup 
\
server-name /bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 21

An excellent step by step guide is here (http://www.lifewithqmail.org) 
which will walk you through setting up qmail.

I'm sure the instructions above work well - just wanted to point out 
the part about inetd.

qmail (http://www.qmail.org) with ezmlm (http://www.ezmlm.org) and the 
ezmlm-idx patch  (also on http://www.ezmlm.org) make an excellent, easy 
to administer, and secure mailing list solution. (note that ezmlm-idx 
will also give you the ability to create html archives)

Inter7 has a brilliant virtual hosting and web mail platform  for qmail 
as well (http://www.inter7.com).

With all that said, I have no experience with postfix - but I have had 
much success with qmail and its addons.

Re: qmail problem

2002-11-25 Thread Brian Jackson
Is it possible one of the other programs you've mentioned (Spam 
assassin for example) is changing permissions on your Maildir 
directory?  You need to be owner and make sure the appropriate r/w 
permissions are there.

I'd also try using maildirwatch at the time you see errors and see if 
it can access the maildir.

Your startup and rc files look fine - have you tried backing out either 
squirrelmail or spam assassin and seeing if the error continues?

You also might want to try the qmail mailing list available for search 
or subscription at http://cr.yp.to or http://www.qmail.org

I know that on some old Sun systems I had to manage, I had to touch

are trying to tftp to the server first, and when you do the transfer it 
will overwrite it.  Might be the same issue?
