Re: milter question... .

2004-05-21 Thread Dirk Meyer
Hallo Gary Kline,

   I've just installed the mail/antivirus-milter; it looks
   promising--to get rid of those annoying *zip, *pif, c
   spams.  But this port also installs its own version of
   sendmail.  I just upgraded to the latest 4.8 and assume 
   that my sendmail is valid. 

you can use the libmiter from baseby setting in /etc/make.conf:
SENDMAIL_MILTER_IN_BASE=yes

   And I safe in modfying the
   scripts in /usr/local/etc/rc.d to point to /usr/sbin/sendmail?

yes ... set sendmail_enable=NONE in /etc/rc.conf
and use the modified sendmail.sh to start it.

Beacause all milter must start before sendamil.

kind regards Dirk

Re: pidentd troubles

2003-12-01 Thread Dirk Meyer
Hallo Ben Dover,

 I was running pidentd server in fbsd 5.1 and ran into a problem.  On reboot 
 thousands of identd processes would be created.  This caused an enormous 
 problem as you can imagine.  I ended up doing a pkg_delete of pidentd.  Has 
 anyone had this happen?

No this effect is unknown 
are ths lookups from localhopst or external?

kind regards Dirk

Re: DVD

2003-11-12 Thread Dirk Meyer
Hallo Bryan Cassidy,

 mplayer -brightness 9 -autosync 30 -dvd 1 /dev/dvd
 
 I can play the DVD without ANY problems what so ever. The problem is
 this. Say I just booted into FreeBSD, did a startx, loged into root and
 ran mplayer with those options. It will play fine and no sound problem.
 After a couple hours or so (using those same commands usually) I can
 still play the DVD but no sound. If I reboot *AFTER* the sound problem
 then I get the sound back. There are no other applications running at
 the same time to block the audio so I don't know what it could be. Other
 than this small problem, DVD is working pretty good so far for me under
 FreeBSD.

it might be a problem in your sound driver.
does -ao sdl help?

mplayer -ao sdl -brightness 9 -autosync 30 -dvd 1 /dev/dvd

kind regards Dirk

Re: savemail panic

2003-10-18 Thread Dirk Meyer
Hallo [EMAIL PROTECTED],

 This is written to messages and mailog:
 
   sendmail[74206]: h9I0iQvm074206: Losing ./qfh9I0iQvm074206: savemail panic
   sendmail[74206]: h9I0iQvm074206: SYSERR(majordom): savemail: cannot save
 rejected email anywhere
 
 The version of majordomo is 1.94.5_1. I am pretty lost here, any help is
 appreciated.

Sendmail is no longer SUID root,
you need to change the permissions for majordomo.

add users daemon/mailnull to the majordom group.

Have you tried to reinstall the majordomo ?

kind regards Dirk

Re: apache13 to apache13-modssl port migration

2003-09-15 Thread Dirk Meyer

I wrote:
  
  The transition is easy.
  
  1) deinstall all your ports(modules) depended on apache13
  2) install apache13-modssl.
  3) recompile all ports(modules)
  
  You can use apache13-modssl just as a replacment to apache13.
  But apache13-modssl uses extrand API, so you have to
  recompile all apache modules with apache13-modssl installed.
  
  all modules will build, install and run fine, maybe portupgrade
  will see wrong dependencys.
  
  some ports suports this very well using in /etc/make.conf
  APACHE_PORT=www/apache13-modssl
  
  still some ports use a obsolete setting like:
  APACHE_PORT=${PORTSDIR}/www/apache13-modssl
  AP_PORT=www/apache13-modssl
  AP_PORT=apache13-modssl
  
  This might be improved after The 4.9 Release

cully wrote:

 Would you avoid portupgrade for this?
 
 I am a little shaky in the knees at this prospect.  This is on a 
 production web server getting over 1 million page views per day.  I use 
 mod_php4, mod_auth_pgsql, mod_gzip, mailman, and I have some other ports 
 installed like squirrelmail, mnogosearch, a bunch of pear libraries (not 
 even sure if they are dependent on apache13), phpMyAdmin and probably a 
 few other things I haven't even thought of. gulp
 
 Once this is done do all these ports change to think they are dependent 
 on apache13-modssl rather than www/apache13?

Yes, the PR#32604 will fix this.

But even now, you don't have to worry,
just be sure the modules are compiled with only www/apache13-modssl
installed, if portupgrade dones not overwrite with with www/apache13
in some coases you are perfectly fine, even if some ports register
a wrong dependency.

Re: ICP Vortex GDT8514RZ: RAID 4 and 5 cause freeze

2003-08-02 Thread Dirk Meyer
Hallo [EMAIL PROTECTED],

 that was my first post about the problem: IBM xSeries 345 freezes after 15
 min.
 (4.8, 5.0, 5.1, current).
 
 I can't believe it, the Vortex SCSI controller is the problem. RAID 0, 1, 10
 runs perfect, RAID 4 and 5 (which I need) kills my server after 15 min.
 That's hard, because this is the 2. controller which will not run with FreeBSD

Do you use the buildin driver from FreeBSD iir?
Have you deactivated  the kernal module iir or icp?

I had no prioblem with vortex controlers so far.
Maybe you need a firmware upgrade?

kind regards Dirk

Re: OpenSSL Question

2003-01-20 Thread Dirk Meyer
Hallo FCET,

 I upgraded to openssl-0.9.6g_1 using the ports method.
 However, the apache error log file still says things like:
 Apache/1.3.27 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.8.12 OpenSSL/0.9.6e configured
 And when I do
 # openssl version
 
 I get
 OpenSSL 0.9.6e 30 Jul 2002
 Any suggestions?

It uses still the base version.
please update your ports ...

a) openssl-0.9.6h
b) apache+mod_ssl-1.3.27+2.8.12

make sure you have:
ports/www/apache13-modssl/Makefile,v 1.114

kind regards Dirk

Re: Sendmail 8.12.6 install

2002-12-08 Thread Dirk Meyer
Hi David R. Stegner,
 1.  CVSUP'd Sendmail 8.12.6 port a few days ago.
 2.  ran make in /usr/ports/mail/sendmail
 3.  read and followed the INSTALL instructions and associated README files.
 
 When I rebooted by system, 8.11.6 was still running.

you forgot to do:
# cd /usr/ports/mail/sendmail  make mailer.conf

 I can run 8.12.6 manually.
 Where I am confused:
 8.11.6 install was
  sendmail executable in /usr/libexec/sendmail/
  usr/sbin/sendmail was pointer to /usr/sbin/mailwrapper
  mailer.conf pointed to /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
  rc.conf reflected 8.11.6 flags, etc

This is sendmail in the base installation.

 after 8.12.6 install complete
  sendmail executable in /usr/local/sbin/


This is a ports installation.

 Is 4.4R too old to use 8.12.6 port?

no.

 Is port install supposed to update rc.conf?

no.
You must update mailer.conf by hand, or by make mailer.conf

 Is port install supposed to utilize mailwrapper.

yes.

as the message tells:
[...]
---
To activate sendmail as your default mailer, call the target 'mailer.conf':
/usr/ports/mail/sendmail$ make mailer.conf

Your '/etc/mail/mailer.conf' should look like this:
#
[...]

 Make install in /usr/ports/mail/sendmail
 Received the following:
 
 ===  Installing for sendmail-8.12.6_1
[...]
 smmsp:*:25:25::0:0:Sendmail Queue:/nonexistent:/nonexistent
 @dirrm share/sendmail: not found
 *** Error code 127

please check:

# make -V ECHO_CMD

if this does not show, please cvsup /usr/ports/Mk.
