IPMI kernel module errors on 6.x
Hi Everyone, I purchased a new Supermicro Superserver SS6015B-T (motherboard is X7DBR-E) about 3 weeks ago with the IPMI module (part called SIMSO) and have had a hard time getting the IPMI functionality to work in RELENG_6. Particularly, when I attempt to 'kldload ipmi' I get the following output in dmesg: ipmi0: IPMI System Interface on isa0 ipmi0: KCS mode found at mem 0xca2 alignment 0x4 on isa ipmi0: KCS: Failed to start write ipmi0: KCS Error retry exhausted ipmi0: KCS: Failed to start write ipmi0: KCS Error retry exhausted ipmi0: KCS: Failed to start write ipmi0: KCS Error retry exhausted ipmi0: Timed out waiting for GET_DEVICE_ID From the dmesg, it appears it's finding the IPMI device, but unable to interact with it. Meanwhile, no device shows up in /dev so ipmitool does not work, either. For reference, here is my uname: FreeBSD exodus 6.2-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 6.2-PRERELEASE #9: Fri Nov 10 10:56:39 PST 2006 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/EXODUS amd64 This is a RELENG_6 build with a CVSUP done just before the compile date of the kernel. The SIMSO IPMI card itself works, I can access it via the web management console, I just can not get the kernel driver to work with it. Any help and/or references would be greatly appreciated.

Possible bug in 5.1 - su / utmp
I found this very interesting when I saw it originally, but then found it was probably a bug. Basically, when I log into my 5.1-RELEASE box (compiled today from CVS), I can do a 'w' and get the following: % w 10:39AM up 5:01, 1 user, load averages: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE WHAT ray p0 somehost 10:39AM - w Now, when I try to SU to root, this entry changes: % su - Password: Last login: Tue Jun 24 07:44:19 on ttyp1 % whoami root % w 10:40AM up 5:01, 1 user, load averages: 0.04, 0.01, 0.00 USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE WHAT root p0 -10:40AM - w So, it looks like the utmp entry is being made (again) for ttyp0 and recording it. This would be fine from my perspective, but is misleading once I exit the root shell: % exit % whoami ray % w 10:42AM up 5:03, 1 user, load averages: 0.01, 0.00, 0.00 USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE WHAT root p0 -10:40AM - w This may be a bug in PAM, since I don't think su calls login (or maybe it does?) Note that this does not happen if I do not use the '-' option for su. This also shows up in the lastlog: root ttyp2 Tue Jun 24 10:40 - 10:43 (00:02) ray ttyp2somehost Tue Jun 24 10:39 - 10:40 (00:00) Anyone have any information about this... know what the bug is? Maybe it's a setting I have set that can be changed?

Re: Possible bug in 5.1 - su / utmp
In addition to my previous email, I found the following: % ps auwx |grep login root 587 0.0 0.1 1604 1220 p0 Is5:39AM 0:00.01 login [pam] (login) root57250 0.0 0.1 1604 1232 p1 Is7:44AM 0:00.02 login [pam] (login) root 6162 0.0 0.1 1604 1236 p2 Ss 11:08AM 0:00.01 login [pam] (login) Looks like the login process executed via PAM is not exiting (I had only 1 user logged in at this time...), so I guess this is most likely a bug in login?

Re: 5.1 ssh hang (i have rtfm and googled) long
Not just that... When OpenSSH runs in the jail environment, it expects resolv.conf in it's own jail... for instance, if the jail is /var/jail, then a copy of resolv.conf needs to exist /var/jail/etc/resolv.conf. Don't ask me why, but this should solve your hanging problem. Of course, the other option is to remove the priveledge seperation parameter in /etc/ssh/sshd_config, then ssh will use the standard /etc/resolv.conf Doron Shmaryahu wrote: Hi, Make sure you have valid nameservers in your /etc/resolv.conf !!

Re: creating ftp users!
Rob, If you want a nice message, I suggest creating a class in /etc/logins.conf which point to a /etc/issues.sftponly file where the user gets a nice message, which you deem appropriate. Secondly, as far as chroot, I don't believe OpenSSH supports chroot natively, however I know there is a patch floating around (I believe in the contrib/ directory of the openssh portable tarball) which will patch openssh to support chroot'd environments. You will need to recompile the openssh portable distribution, however. Rob Lahaye wrote: Raymond Sundland wrote: Rob, You can try setting the user's shell to /usr/libexec/sftp-server (or wherever the sftp-server binary exists under FreeBSD). This will give the user ability to SFTP into the box, but without a normal shell. /usr/lib/exec/sftp-server should be added to /etc/shells, too. Almost works ;). Doing what you suggest, I can sftp to the account, but when I do ssh to that account, I get the regular login message but no prompt. Something seems to hang. When I type something and hit return, I get: bad message Connection to foo.bar.com closed. $ It somehow blocks ssh login indeed, but it's not very nice! BTW will sftp also work with the /etc/chroot file?

Re: Freebsd 4.8 acd1c can't have more than 32 cd devices
You should try 'sh MAKEDEV acd1' as the 'c' is confusing MAKEDEV (or mknod). This should create the acd1 device and the acd1c partition on that device.
