Re: CVS release tag for current patched release

This kind of hatred is in my humble opinion sign of inmaturity. It is really so hard to respect others? To respect their choices, reasons? Why? If one could invest his time he puts into hatred aimed towards Microsoft, if one could invest it to further promote/develop his OS of choice instead, then it would definitely be a better world for my servers and desktops to live in. Don't you think? I hate the following wars: BSD license vs GPL license Linux vs xBSD GNOME vs KDE bash vs tcsh text apps vs X apps CUPS vs lpr I just add: Windows vs Linux/Unix.

I didn't have any other trouble with sound updating from 3.2 to 3.3, so I don't think this is 3.3 only. Hmmm.. I wasn't upgrading, I made fresh install of KDE 3.3. But thank you :).. I ran kmix again (without any success at all), but small icon of kmix appeared in taskbar and it said Volume at 0% (even when I set 100%), so I opened it and set it at 100% again.. and it worked..

So ask yourself, do you really need to have all the stress or can you leave it to your bank/billing partner (although for small fee)?

I have been trying to find information books/web that gives a real nuts and bolts way of trying to do this stuff and am not having a lot of luck. Any pointers books or sites would be appreciated. The most common answer is Don't do that 99.9% of e-commerce sites have absolutely no business storing credit card numbers on any hardware they own. They should simply run the transaction through their Merchant Account (bank) computer using a secure connection, and the software provided by their Merchant Account (bank). If you need a recurring charge, you can run your charge through the Merchant Account as a recurring charge (whoda thunk it?) and the Merchant Account software will give you back a unique transaction # to refer to if you ever need to cancel THAT particular recurring charge. You would store only that transaction number, and *NOT* the customer's credit card charge. In the unlikely event that you really *ARE* in the 0.01% of servers that needs to store credit card info... Well, it's kinda scare that you're asking here, rather than a security mailing list, but here is *ONE* solution that may be worth considering. I am posting to the list so that others can tell us just how inadequate this is. You should also be aware that by no means am I an expert -- I am simply describing what has been described to me as the right way (tm) to do this. My information may be out of date. (It's been awhile.) I chose to let the Merchant Account (bank) worry about keeping credit card numbers safe, rather than do all of the following. You probably should too. Depending on the current interpretation of existing laws, you, the web developer, may or may not be held responsible for *ANY* damages that result from your work -- no matter how faultless you may be in reality. We're talking legalities here, not reality. Did I mention that you really shouldn't be doing this at all? Good. First, your servers *MUST* be in a physically secure location, with access limited to *ONLY* people you really really really trust. No software in the world will do you any damn good if a not-so-honest person can waltz in and play around with the hardware! If you *CANNOT* guarantee that the hardware in question can *ONLY* be accessed by trusted individuals, than you should stop reading right here and now. This rules out shared servers, co-location (IMHO), and almost all corporate servers, which need too many people of limited trust value to be able to access them to keep them up. Next, you need a SECOND server which will be used to hold credit card info, and that second computer will *NOT* be connected to the Internet (directly) You put an extra NIC in your web-server, and run a cross-over cable to the SECOND server, the extra one, which will hold the credit card

I know portmap_enable=YES in rc.conf does the trick, but what about starting fam? Look in /usr/local/etc/rc.d There will likely be several startup scripts in there for other services. Use one as a skeleton to start up fam. Likely, if you installed fam from ports, there will already be a startup script in that directory, it'll just need to be renamed. Many ports will put the scripts there with a -sample extension. Check to make sure that file looks in the right places for your daemon and if so, rename it to remove the -sample and it'll start up on boot. There is no such script in ../etc/rc.d. All you have to do is to start portmap (in rc.conf), and then edit your /etc/inetd.conf and add there: sgi_fam/1-2 stream rpc/tcp wait root /usr/local/bin/fam fam and then killall -HUP inetd.

Hello, There is MRTG (/usr/ports/net-mgmt/mrtg) for constant monitoring of inbound/outbound traffic, data are also available in graph format. Or you can try ntop (/usr/ports/net/ntop). Or you can write your own script analyzing data from ipfw counting :). I use mrtg and ntop for monitoring of my bandwith, and management is satisfied with both. There are more tools, maybe others might point you to them. Cheers, Martin On Sat, Apr 10, 2004 at 04:20:21PM -0400 or thereabouts, Dragoncrest wrote: Hi all. Got a question. I got a box on my network that I'd like to be able to track bandwidth usage on. Just to see how much traffic is passing through it in a one month period and daily over a 24 hour period. Is there some kind of application I can use to log total bytes sent and total bytes recieved? I don't need to know specifically WHAT was sent, but rather HOW MUCH of it was sent. IE 6 gigs inbound traffic, 2 gigs outbound traffic. It's running Freebsd 4.9 right now. What is the easiest way to do this short of setting up IPFW and doing a kernel compile and all that nasty stuff. Any suggestions will be welcome. -- Martin Hudec| corwin at aeternal.net | corwin at web.markiza.sk http://www.aeternal.net | cell +421 907 303 393 ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Portupgrade problem
Hello, I am using portupgrade -airR for a long long time without any signs of trouble :), just for few days I am observing a message from portaudit regarding of upgrading my Midnight Commander that due to bug in mc (as do portaudit say) there will be no upgrade :). I thought that that bug was fixed in 4.6.0_9 version, but portaudit still complains..

If you were starting out clean, a portupgrade -rR glib would have done most of this but I wouldn't bet money. I eventually did a -rf glib to get things built cleanly. -- =-- : :. kind regards :..

Re: Portupgrade problem
Hi Andreas, don't you really have atk in /usr/ports/accessibility/atk directory? Perhaps look into ports-supfile.. do you have there ports-all enabled? cheers, Martin On Fri, Apr 09, 2004 at 08:55:04PM +0200 or thereabouts, Andreas Davour wrote: And it is correct in that there *is* no accessibility/atk port in my new cvsup'ed ports tree. But why is it then telling me it needs it!? Can I get the atk ports from somewhere? Is it really needed? Why has it dissapeared and why is it still mentioned as a dependency then? -- =-- : :. kind regards :..
