 I don't see what you are getting at here, why would Ultradns return
 A-records for slashdot.org when they don't provide that domains DNS? 

but if you're asking why it doesn't provide A-records for the domain's
nameservers, then presumably it's because the nameservers themselves
are using a different TLD.

Re: Not able install FreeBSD 5.1 properly

 Hi,

 I am facing problem in installation of FreeBSD 5.1.  The system
 configuration is  P IV 2.4 GHz with two hard drives  1 CDROM  1
 CDRW. I am trying to install FreeBSD in primary slave, in a primary
 partition of size 4GB. I have given 200MB as swap, 1500MB as /usr and
 rest to / . When it asks for installation source, I selected CDRW. But
 during the installation process, it never asked for Disk 2. So, it said
 that it could not find some packages.

I don't recall using disk 2 during installation; I think it's just a
rescue disk.

I'm wondering if you have simply run out of space on /usr, 1.5GB is quite
small. A default FreeBSD installation will allocate only a few hundred MB
for /, and give almost all the space to /usr (/home is then linked to
/usr/home).

However, if I were you, I wouldn't install 5.1 at all, now that 5.2 is
available.

Re: Spam Assassin?

2004-01-26 Thread Robert Woolley

Though I've not actually used it myself, I did once look at the
documentation.

I don't think you do actually need spamd, the normal way is to have
procmail run spamassassin directly as a perl script.

Spamc is a lightweight c-coded frontend that connects to spamd over a
socket; it eliminates the overhead of restarting perl for every mail, and
it also allow SA to run on a dedicated machine. The spamc/spamd
combination is really intended for high traffic mail systems.

I can't recall how you pass an email to the SA perl script, but google
should turn it up.

 Here's how I have spam assassin setup on my mail server.   I installed
 spam assassin using perl's CPAN module, so I'm not sure how different
 it is from the ports install.

 You need to have the spam assassin daemon (spamd) running.  I imagine
 the port installs a startup script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d .

  Ok folks,
 
  I'm very, very overwhelmed here.  I think it comes from trying to

  users having the ability to opt-out of the spam filtering.  I mainly
  offer POP3 mail access (via qpopper) and I'm thinking of adding in
  Squirrelmail support with IMAP.  I have a working mail/pop server and
  everything is fine there.  The spam assassin port and procmail ports
  have been through a make install clean and I haven't the foggiest
  idea on how to get the two of them working together with sendmail.
  Please help.

openssl certs

2003-12-12 Thread Robert Woolley
I recently installed FreeBSD 5.1-release, and I'm a bit confused
about openssl

I can't find a certs directory, except for
/usr/src/crypto/openssl/certs. Is that really the correct location?

In Pine and Evolution (built from ports) I'm getting unable to get
local issuer certificates  for the servers that support ssl
(fastmail.fm and myrealbox.com), I've tried setting the aforementioned
certs directory in the Pine makefile (as an argument to the build
script), but it didn't work.
