Re: java decoder?
Gary Kline wrote: I doubt this but is there anything that will take a foo.jar and turn in back into java? Or at least assembler? This really isn't the place for such questions. As to the question itself, Im no java man, but I think a jar is an archive of classes, meaning you can extract them and then use a java decompiler to decompile the classes to get the source. Good luck. JimBow ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

How about this:
ext_ifs = { iwi0 bge0 }
block in quick on ext_ifs all
pass out quick on ext_ifs all keep state

This is nice, but any ideas how to do this if the wireless interface
is only present some of the time, ie its a pcmcia card?

Am I doing something wrong here or do I need to I need to use one of the other from /dev: You want to use /dev/da0s1d - the main partition on slice 1 on the drive. Sorry, I dont remember the explanation as to why you must use da0s1d instead of da0s1c, but it goes something along the lines of c partition being a shorthand notation for the entire slice, whereas letter d marks the first partition on the slice. Maybe someone here can clarify this? Hope this helps.

I gather that sendmail must also use getlogin(2) - which value does not appear in `env` - when sending mail from an su'd session, as opposed to an original root login, Yes, I think you've hit the nail on the head there. The actual thing Im trying to do is to email something from a script that runs as root from devd, but I run into the same problem of the email arriving from somebody other than root, hence trying this manually on the command line. Is 'somebody other than root' consistent, and someone who's logged in, perhaps before su'ing and then starting the session that invokes devd? 'somebody other than root' is the same user each time. They are not logged in at the time the script runs, but do own some active processes (most notably screen). There is definitely something that I am overlooking, but what is it? I'm extremely curious to work-out why I'm seeing such behavior as its defeating all my expectations so far. I noticed later that Paul gets a different result .. maybe postfix as mentioned Postfix doesn't seem to be affected by the same issue and works as one would expect when run from command line and devd. I've also tried using nullmailer and that works ok too. Seems that sendmail's workings were responsible for the confusion. I'm going to be replacing it with nullmailer on all machines.

Re: mail from: field question
Lowell Gilbert wrote: The answer will probably depend on the MTA you're using (which you didn't mention, so it's probably sendmail) You've guessed it. Its out-of-the-box sendmail. Run the script from the command line and in particular just call mail the way the script does. If I run the script (or just send a mail) on the command line using sudo, then it's sent as me and not root. Same happens if I su to root first. The only way I can get it to be sent from root is if I explicitly login as root. Make sure the results are the same (if they're not, the MTA isn't the problem). So it looks like it isn't. What can be the cause of this then? Thanks for your help.

mail from: field question
Hi all, I have a small shell script that does a backup to a usb drive and emails the results to a set of people. The script is triggered from devd (upon drive attachment) and runs as root. The problem is that the mail report is sent from an active system user and not user root. The user the mail is sent from is not referenced in the script. The mail line looks like this: cat $LOGFILE | mail -s backuptousb report [EMAIL PROTECTED] I find this rather confusing since I was expecting the email to be sent by the user running the script. How can this be? A little research told me that this may be because of something called envelope-from, but I found little explanation of what that actually means. Anyone have any suggestions?

What should I use? awk/sed or write some shell-script? I found myself at this point once too, and then I discovered /usr/ports/sysutils/rename. Sure, its not as crazy as krename (it wont read any metadata), but it runs in a terminal, is written in C and supports extended regular expressions.
