While on the Horde4 subject, we are running a test installation and find the perfermance of H4 to be considerably slower the its predecessor. Did anyone here experience this?

I've tried for days to get the 3.3 version (with apps IMP, INGO Tuba) to work and noted that the ports say that horde4 is broken. I've googled many times and tried some examples from there, but most appear pretty old and not running with php5.3x. Is it just that Horde doesn't work with fbsd-7.x and php5.3x or is it me? I am in the process of rewriting all the horde4 ports, as this is a very large project involving over 50 modules and libs it will take some time. Horde4 does work very well with FreeBSD and you can do a pear install if you really need it now. Do keep in mind that horde4 is not backwards compatible with 3.x and the update procedures are not trivial. That being said, this should get you started: http://www.horde.org/apps/webmail/docs/INSTALL Beech Hi Beech: Since I've never gotten horde 3 to fully work yet, I suppose I could give horde4 a shot. I liked its potention and thought it would be useful to some of our users. I re-installed horde-3 3 or 4 times and always got stopped when it would only loads the Welcome to Horde page requesting a login. I followed the instructions carefully AFAIK. Login failed every time even though MySQL backend and the horde conf.php files contained the login. You certainly have a lot of work in front of you on a rewrite of the ports and look forward to when finished. Good luck! (^_^) Happy trails, Jack L.

I was just overthinking it. Simply changing the doc root in the main httpd conf to match my exising one worked beautifully with any concern about moving content around and breaking the system path for scripts and things. By modifying the www/apache22/data back to www/data left everything as was. My production servers are now updated this way. My web serving was only down for a few minutes as I left apache2 running in memory. I simply uploaded copies of all of my tested .conf files from the test server before installing apache22. Also first made the minor changes needed to the main conf and vhost.conf. Killed the apache2 and voila! Thanks for your version of the process, but thought I'd post mine here too just in case there is anyone left on the planet besides me that hasn't already upgraded to apache22.

Just as a sidenote, PHP 5.3.6 so far seems to be unaffected by extension loading order, but looks like that any upgrade of apache, apr, php etc. means that every dependent module downstream has to be recompiled as well. -Reko With upgrade to php5-5.3.6 is the first time ever (many years) I've had any problem with php. The order of the extensions never came up as an issue, nor did it once I found the extensions causing the seg faults and core dumps. Ryan's suggestion of commenting out all of the extensions and then adding back 1 by 1 enabled me to find the offenders quickly. The 2 sqlite extensions caused the problem for me there also was a 3rd one and I removed them all as I don't use that database. For ports, I usually go with the defaults on options unless I KNOW what they do or don't do. Have used the same options and didn't know why the sqlites were added this time. That further cause an install of the core sqlite port. Without removing it, I couldn't delete the inclusion of the sqlite extensions. Now, I wrestling with the apache2 and apr0 issue. The apache port Makefile wants apr0, but it now has vulnablilities. Ports UPDATING says to do this with apr: - remove apache2 and then: portupgrade -f -o devel/apr1 devel/apr ...and then reinstall apache2. That didn't work because the Makefile in apache still wants apr0. I changed the Makefile to apr1 but the build failed after it looked again for that apr0 later in the build. I didn't find another call for apr0. What have others done for this? This is about the last issue I know about after the major upgrade of the ports. Thanks for all the help so far -- just any other help on the apr thingy would be nice. Yes, I have googled and always do before going to the trough here. Thanks again! (^_^) Happy trails, Jack L.

Check the mailing list archives for very many discussions on the effect
of having the extensions listed in ${PREFIX}/etc/php/extensions.ini
in the wrong order.
Cheers,

Matthew:
Thanks for that suggestion but couldn't find the numerous discussions about
the wrong order of extensions. Using google I did find one post and a list
that poster used. I tried following his list with the sames ones I had plus
some 6-7 he didn't have. Still get the core dump.
Can you suggest the key word to search in the list archives. I used php5
extensions and php5 core dump which brought up some discussions which
didn't include the order discussions though.
I cannot do without ioncube as another post mentioned.
Thanks to all and any other ideas.

Pardon my answering my own post, but after reading the find manpage, I
think perhaps
find -d /path/to/start/deleting -type d -name _vti_\* -exec rm -Rd {} \;
would be better. The -d option makes find visit the contents of a
directory before the directory itself. The one without the -d option
deletes the topmost directory it finds and then tries to traverse
downwards, which of course causes a warning. It still works though.
Thanks for the follow-up. I'll try it too.

script help
Hello folks: No doubt this will be easy for those with scritping abilities. I have a gazillion files by the same name and each contains the same line requiring the same change. But the problem is that they are in many different directories on a server with numerous domains. While I could handle the change using a single directory within my abilities, I'm unsure how to do a search and replace throughout the many domains and their directories. Don't want to mess up. Here's what I'm trying to do: # find all of the same filenames (copyright.htm) and then replace the year 2010 with 2011 in each file. Once I have a working script, I should be able to add it as a cron job to run on the first day of each new year. Any help appreciated. Thanks! Jack (^_^) Happy trails, Jack L.

All is still okay on the new platform so far. While the new platform looks a bit more flashy can't say I like it any better (yet). Another response to my post was from Pierre who said: ...The legacy platform seems to still work for me: http://legacy.zoneedit.com I had sent some money though to have free service for my existing domains forever Apparently Pierre's account just hasn't been migrated to the new platform and the old legacy sit still works.

Extracting a variable listing
Sorry to return to the trough again for script help, but find excellent answers here when all else fails, and I am not very good at it.

Here's an example of the need. The content I need will always fall beneath a row of pound signs, and there is content above that row I don't want, like this: bunch of rows I don't need here ### --- the top of stuff needed row1 row2 row3 row4 etc, etc So, I need a way to pull out the rows (which vary daily) beneath the pound row and place it in a new temp file that I can cat into a master file.

This suggestion won't do the job as the list of words is very long, maybe 50-60. This is why I asked how to place them all in a file. One reply dealt with using a file with egrep. I'll try that. Gee, 50 words, that's about a 300 character pattern, that's not a problem for any shell or version of grep I know. But reading the words from a file is equivalent and as you note most likely easier to do. The question is what is more efficient. This might be important if that kind of grep command is run very often by a script, or if it's run on very large files. My guess is that one large regular expression is more efficient than many small ones. But I haven't done real benchmarks to prove this. BTW, not using regular expressions is even more efficient, e.g. $ fgrep -f /usr/share/dict/words /etc/group When using egrep(1) it takes considerably more time and memory. Having written a regex engine myself, I can see why. Though I'm sure egrep is highly optimized, even the most optimized DFA table is going to take more cycles to navigate than a simple string comparison. Not to mention the initial overhead of parsing the regex and building that table. -- Sterling (Chip) Camden| sterl...@camdensoftware.com | 2048D/3A978E4F Many thanks to all of the suggestions. I found this worked very well, ignoring concerns about use of resources: egrep -i -o -w -f word.file main.file The only thing it didn't do for me was the next step. My final objective was to really determine the words in the word.file that were not in the main.file. I figured finding matches would be easy and then could then run a sort|uniq comparison to determine the new words not yet in the main.file.

In you case, just do your dumps on the server to be moved as it will do it quicker and not likely to lose much from a live system (if live). The transfer method is a bit slower. Once dumps are made, then transfer the files over to your utility machine. Run my script on the utility which will mirror everything over to a 2nd new clean drive. Shut down the utility machine, pull the 2nd drive with the restore and install as the master drive in your target new machine -- then boot up. That's it.

I think so, yeah -- something like this should work:
#!/bin/sh
new=`grep foo /path/to/bar`
old=`cat /path/to/oldvariable`
sed -i.bak -e s/$old/$new/ /file/to/edit
Note that I'm using double quotes () rather than the single quotes (')
you usually see with sed scripts; that's so I can use $newvariable
and still have the varible substituted in. This assumes there's nothing
in $old or $new that would need to be escaped (quotes, slashes, etc).
Also, my simplistic example for grep and cat assumes that the product of
each is the thing you need to search/replace and nothing else -- if you
need the third field (say), look at awk(1). The -i option tells sed
to edit the file in place, but keep a backup named /file/to/edit.bak.
Another, and maybe more robust approach, to editing the file would be to
try Perl, Programming Language of the Elder Gods. (Yeah, I'm a fan. :-).
The last line could be replaced by:
perl -i.bak -new=$new -old=$old -e's/$old/$new/' \
/file/to/edit
...which would be a way of getting difficult values of new and old into
single quotes.

Indeed, I had a 2-day fight with a break in a perl function that I finally found that dealt with one of the learning DBs (Bayes). Specifically, the locks on the DB became flaky.

The log jam was causing a 30x jump (less than 1 sec to 30+) in the time to process a message, and breaking the scans letting spam in. After cleaning out the DB, all settled down again and messages are processed in less than a sec again -- only an occasional spam slips in -- but Bayes DB needs to rebuild to be useful again too.

As I am writing this from my day job, and the unit in question is currently built with 4.9 now anyway, I cannot give you the exact message but if you google for 'calcru FreeBSD' you will see what I am talking about. Thanks in advance for your help! Roy Roy, check out man MICROTIME(9). ...might give this a try: # sysctl -w kern.timecounter.method=1 Best regards, Jack L.

Crash Dump
FreeBSD sage-american.com 4.8-RELEASE-p13 Hello again. Hope this the place for this question. One of my mail servers has been crashing for several months about once every 2 weeks at random times and after changing out all hardware, including shifting the OS to 3 different machines, I finally concluded it was the OS and setup to catch a crash dump. The dump is submitted below and perhaps someone knows how to tranlate it for a recommended fix. If this should be on another list, please let me know. Thanks for any help!

Scripting help
Dear list: I hope think this is not off-topic, and is just about running a script in FBSD to delete specific lines in a flat file based on info in another flat file. My scripting skills are very limited and need help on how to purge my mail lists. We maintain several majordomo mail lists on a Tech magazine site (www.antennex.com) with 60,000 readers. Needless to say, it is real tedious to try and keep the lists up to date (groan). I have scripted a way to capture the bounces (by list) into a plain text file (1 address per line), but haven't figured out how to purge those from the lists. In other words, if the address is found in the bounce list, then delete from the main lists (also one address per line). I'd appreciate suggestions on how to do this. Thanks for any responses. :-) Best regards, Jack L.

NAT Redirect Ext address to multiple Int IPs on single machine
On my own servers which are all FBSD machines, I use the classic method of redirecting an IP address from a Gateway machine to a main host and its vhosts located on an Internal Machine like so: redirect_address 192.168.0.5 123.xxx.xxx.101 -- main host ...then Apache sends any requests to a vhost to its own IP: 192.168.0.5 - 123.xxx.xxx.102 192.168.0.5 - 123.xxx.xxx.103 However, on an ISP where I manage servers, we have a new FBSD Gateway set that is working fine for the internal FBSD machines behind that GW, just as above. However, there are also some Window Servers to be setup behind the Gateway and I was asked if I could do the redirect of several public IPs to a single Internal IP address as follows (the Win servers run IIS -- not Apache: Redirect from FBSD GW to single Window Server (all of the internal IPs are on one machine): redirect_address 192.168.0.5 123.xxx.xxx.101 redirect_address 192.168.0.6 123.xxx.xxx.102 redirect_address 192.168.0.7 123.xxx.xxx.103 I have never seen this setup before but, I tried it and it works -- that is until we pull out the Gateway ad0 drive and put it into another FBSD machine. This is an experiment to see if the main GW were to go down, could we pull the HD (or a clone HD) and move it to another machine to get right back up and running as before. We have tried this exercise on several identical FBSD machines and find that the redirects no longer work. Eventually, the one FBSD internal machine on this new network test will start resolving, but not the Window stations -- although even here, the FTP will work, but not the port 80 webs on the Window machines. We have tried to isolate anything that might be the slightest way different to figure out why the addresses no longer redirect to port 80 and I have pretty much concluded that IIS does not handle things like Apache does and that we cannot redirect as in the FBSD--Windows example above. Many times, I have successfully switched GW machines using the same HD and things worked as before. This allows me to bring down a GW machine to do maintenance while keeping all of the services running on another machine. Admittedly, I have not run Windows servers and am unfamiliar with IIS and highly suspect this as the culprit. Sorry for the length of this one, but was as brief as possible. Any suggestions greatly appreciated as this put us at the crossroads of whether to switch to FBSD as a GW/NAT/FW/Router. Thanks Happy Holidays! Best regards, Jack L.

NATD remote management
Dear list: I manage a remote gateway/nat/router/fw server where it is not convenient for anyone to go downtown to the colo and do reboots. I've managed to do everything here remotely from my own console, including reboots when updating the OS requires it -- that is except when reconfiguring the natd.conf file to add another forwarding service. I can reboot and it comes up okay, but rather would avoid a reboot. BUT, if I try to kill/restart the natd daemon remotely, it kills my SSH session -- no restart of NATD -- cannot log back in and that means a 30-min trip for someone to the colo. That gets old and rather just reboot which is a lot less inconvenient. Obviously, when I do the kill of natd, it disconnects my SSH session and I can't restart the daemon so it can reread the natd.conf file for my changes. I've tried a background script, but that hasn't worked either. Perhaps a second session would stay alive either SSH or even a telnet session just for the duration for this event??? Or a better background script...?? I'd rather not do any uninformed guessing/gambling on different techniques to cause a lock out. There's probably a simple answer and hope someone will remind me what it is Many thanks Happy Holidays to the list. Best regards, Jack L.

The simple answer is : a better background script :)
I manage a bunch of remote machines and sometimes have to fool around with
NATD remotely. When I do this, I make a cron entry that starts
/root/ipfw-rescue .
In there there's something like :
/sbin/natd -f flush
/sbin/natd 1 divert natd all from any to any via xl0
/sbin/natd 5 pass all from any to any
killall -KILL natd
/sbin/natd -n xl0
This way the machine will always recover from ipfw or natd tests within 10
minutes.
When loading firewall rules remotely, I direct the output of ipfw to
/dev/null
to be sure ipfw loads the entire rule set.
If for example you have a rc.firewall file like this :
${fwcmd} -f flush
${fwcmd} add blah blah
${fwcmd} add blah blah2
${fwcmd} add 5000 pass all from any to any
And you start it over SSH with :
sh /etc/rc.firewall
You will get locked out because ipfw prints every rule it adds. So after
ipfw
-f flush it will print ruleset flushed, but packets aren't allowed to
travel outside over the SSH connection (since the ruleset is empty) so
execution of rc.firewall stops there... :(
Loading the ruleset like this does work :
sh /etc/rc.firewall /dev/null 2/dev/null
(Direct both stdout and stderr to /dev/null)
Alternatively you could direct the output to a log-file so you can verify if
anything went wrong. (And don't forget to remove the cron-entry when you're
done)
Hope this helps,
Daan
Daan Michael:
Here's a simple script that I cooked up from the tips that works great:
# killnatd
#!/bin/sh
ipfw -ade l | mail -s Flush Sage-One Firewall sageame
/bin/sh /etc/rc.sagefw
killall -KILL natd
/sbin/natd -f /etc/natd.conf -n rl0
Plus, the cron job, just in case, as insurance is an excellent idea for
managing daemons for remotes like this.
Mnay thanks again!

Help! Runaway NATD
FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE-p13 - GW/router/NAT/FW/Caching DNS - Bind-8.3x + IPFW(8) Have just setup the above to route mainly for a LAN (in place of hardware router), but natd runs non-stop as per TOP(1) and keeps eating up the CPU until it crashes. Takes about 1/2 hour to eat up the resources and requires a reboot -- then the problem just starts over again. Typical firewall setup used in a number of our servers which diverts to port 8668 and then the packets are redirected to limited ports on the various workstations. NATD acts like it is in a loop and rehashing the packets over and over. There is a very light load of packets flowing over the rl0 external interface. Natd is loaded in usual way. Have killed off most other daemons, but NATD keeps running as shown by TOP(1) Never seen this before. Would appreciate any ideas on how to fix it Thanks in advance. Best regards, Jack L.

One that I've used before is mod_throttle which is in the ports: /usr/ports/www/mod_throttle which allows you to throttle users by ip address to a certain number of documents and/or up to a certain transfer limit. IIRC it's fairly limited though in that you can only apply per IP limits to _every_ virtual host - ie in the global httpd.conf context. A more finegrained solution (from what I've read, haven't tried it) is mod_bwshare - this one isn't in the ports but can be found here: http://www.topology.org/src/bwshare/ this module overcomes some of the shortfalls of mod_throttle and allows you to specify finer granularity over who consumes how much bandwidth over what time period. Now, my question: Is it possible to write a script that can constantly scan the Apache logs to look for certain footprints of those downloaders, perhaps the names, like HTTRACK, being one I see a lot. Whenever I see one of those sessions, I have been able to abort them by adding a rule to the firewall to deny the IP address access to the server. This aborts the downloading, but have seen the attempts constantly continue for a day or two, confirming unattended downloads. Thus, if the script could spot an offender and then perhaps make use of the firewall to add a rule containing the offender's IP address and then flush to reset the firewall, this would at least abort the download and free up the bandwidth (I already have a script that restarts the firewall). Is this possible and how would I go about it??? If you really wanted to go down this route then I found a script someone wrote a while back to find 'rude robots' from a httpd logfile which you could perhaps adapt to do dynamic filtering in conjunction with your firewall: http://stein.cshl.org/~lstein/talks/perl_conference/cute_tricks/log9.html If you have any success let me know. -- Jez Interesting.

Am running FBSD.4.8-R
At times, I need to replace an existing string in a file that has the same
name in all ~user accounts and know there must be a short script to do that
and suspect it involves sed(1). However, had no luck getting it to work
yet. Basically want to do this:
- find same files in all ~users by same name ~users/myfile
- replace this ${string} with this ${string} in the above files
- report list of above files modified successfully
If all your users share a common hierarchy:
sed -i.bak -e s/oldstring/newstring/ /home/*/myfile
You'll need to be running FreeBSD 4.7 or newer for sed -i to work. Not
sure how to get a list of changed files, though. Maybe just do a grep
beforehand?

Thanks, Dan knew it would be simple. Can probably grep and/or diff for
the changes

Re: cron executes entries twice

This happens most obviously for the periodic scripts, but also on some scripts that I added for nightly, weekly, or runs at reboot. This started not long after a buildworld upgrade from one 4.x to another 4.x. Which upgrade, I don't recall unfortunately. The executions of the scripts appear to occur within minutes of each other, if not seconds. Hmmm - that is strange. My only thought off-hand would be that someone has managed to install /etc/crontab as a personal crontab? Try 'crontab -l' as root and any other possible users to see if they have a crontab that is similar to the /etc/crontab Just a thought.. Andrew Or do this: # ls -l /var/cron/tabs and that will show the crontabs running. open them to see the contents. That will be faster if you have a lot of users. Best regards, Jack L.

Running a rand or random script
I need to run a script, perhaps using FBSD's 'rand' or 'random' command (or any other) that will generate one single 5-digit number 'at random' between 1-9 Anyone have thoughts on how to do this??

Make -- Illegal instruction - core dumpedI've been trying to
I've been trying to update, via sources, an older server (586 CPU) that's running a real sparse 4.5-RELEASE, but each time I use: # make 'target' I get the following error. Illegal instruction - core dumped It's got me stopped in my tracks. Any tips for a fix appreciated Thanks! Best regards, Jack L.

The above error message is as far as it gets. #make 'target' and then the error is returned Does that happen with every make command? Have you tried different Makefiles to see whether the problem was with `make' itself? In any event, here's how to get some sense out of that error. First, make a debugging version of the `make' executable: # gcc -g -o /usr/bin/make_g /usr/src/usr.bin/make/*.c \ /usr/src/usr.bin/make/lst.lib/*.c -I/usr/src/usr.bin/make \ -DDEFSHELL=1 Then try and reproduce the error with `make_g' instead of `make'. If it does the same thing, do this: $ gdb /usr/bin/make_g make_g.core [copyright msgs snipped] (gdb) -- Type 'where' at this prompt and send us the output. (gdb) quit -- Josh Josh: I didn't get a core, but here is the whole excercise I tried following your instructs: make_g installworld snipped here where stopped...osreldate.h /usr/include *** Signal 4 Stop in /usr/src/include. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src.
