Re: Recompile kernel or module for ipfw+nat?
n j wrote: Hello everyone, I have a quick question regarding the setup of nat with ipfw. According to the handbook: "The following options must be in the kernel configuration file: options IPFIREWALL options IPDIVERT" however, there is a kernel module called ipdivert.ko similar to ipfw.ko for the firewall. Is it still necessary to recompile the kernel in order to use nat with ipfw? Or, to put it another way, is there a possibility to use nat and keep the generic kernel? Thanks for any input, You can choose to use the modules or make it static by recompile the kernel. IMHO the ipnat(8) is a more simple way to get nat. -- Christer Hermansson http://www.chdevelopment.se ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Regular expressions
Hi. I'm trying to use regular expressions inside a shell script (/bin/sh) on my freebsd box and can't get it to work so I searched the web and found http://regexlib.com/RETester.aspx On this webpage I could test my pattern "^[A-Za-z0-9_-]+$" and everything was fine, did exactly what I wanted to do, check that a string only contains some combination of the characters A-Z, a-z, 0-9, hyphen - and underscore _. I also found some basic example at http://www.grymoire.com/Unix/Sh.html#uh-88 : 8<8<8<8<8< #!/bin/sh echo "Type in a number" read ans number=`expr "$ans" : "([0-9]*)"` if [ "$number" != "$ans" ]; then echo "Not a number" elif [ "$number" -eq 0 ]; then echo "Nothing was typed" else echo "$number is a fine number" fi 8<8<8<8<8< The above example doesn't work on my freebsd box.
