Mail server questions (SMTP Auth, Imap and virtual domains)
Hi all, I've got a mail setup doing virtualhosts as described at http://www.penguinpowered.org/documentation/exim_virtualhosting.html My users can pull their mail down with POP, but have to use their ISP's SMTP server for outgoing mail. I'd like to do two things at this stage, and I'd appreciate any advice on pointers to help me achieve these: 1. Setup SMTP Auth with Exim so that they can use my boxes for outgoing SMTP. This would allow me to setup SPF on their domains as well, which would be a plus. 2. Setup a webmail solution. I'm currently using Squirrelmail for users that exist in /etc/passwd (not very many!), and am considering a migration to Horde/IMP. Near as I can tell though it's not the webmail client that matters, but the imap server. Does anyone know of an imap server that will do 'virtual mailboxes' like vm-pop3d does ?

Previously this dependency was magically handled through some cruft in net/pfil.h; but that has been removed. Building a kernel with IPFILTER but not PFIL_HOOKS will fail with obtuse errors in ip_fil.c. (It's a good idea to look in /usr/src/UPDATING before updating your system.) Fair enough - to a point. I only look for things that apply to my system when reading UPDATING... things that have changed since my last update. In september 2003, I wouldn't have read the ipfilter related stuff, because I wasn't using ipfilter at that time. When I do the update now, I just look for changes since my last update, which won't go back to 2003, so again I won't see that ipfilter entry. Then I go looking on the web for a HOWTO to install ipfilter on FreeBSD 5.2.1 - which I found, but it didn't mention this.

Getting ProFTPD to listen on just one IP address
Hi all, Can anyone enlighten me as to how I get ProFTPD to just listen to one IP address ? I've just installed from ports, so I've got proftpd-1.2.10.r1 I've added the following to my config file : DefaultAddress193.xx.xx.xx I then start ProFTPD and get the following message: - setting default address to 193.xx.xx.xx However, netstat -an | grep 21 shows me this tcp4 0 0 *.21 *.* LISTEN So it's binding to both IP's on the machine. I've tested this and I can definitely FTP to both IP addresses - which is NOT what I want. The reason I'm trying to get this working is that I need 2 different config's on the same machine.

For the 100Mb, I see the following in dmesg after boot: e100: selftest OK. e100: eth1: Intel(R) PRO/100 Network Connection Hardware receive checksums enabled cpu cycle saver enabled I can then allocate it an IP address and it appears to work.

ipfw state tables
Hi all, We're using ipfw as a firewall solution on our network. We are using stateful rules. The problem I have though, is that when we reload our ipfw ruleset, all existing connections to or through the particular machine are lost. This means a lot of hung ssh sessions. Is there any way to save the state tables before firewall restart and then reload them once the new rules are in place ?

Alias in different subnet on card
Hi all, I'm running a firewall at the moment using FreeBSD 5.2.1 and IPFW. I have 3 interfaces in the machine. I need to be able to firewall a 4th range of IP's. I have tried to do this by adding an alias to xl1, but this hasn't worked. If I add the alias with a mask of 255.255.255.255, no other machine can ping the alias. I also see the following in /var/log/messages Mar 8 18:02:13 styx-tmp kernel: arplookup 19x.xxx.xxx.196 failed: host is not on local network The primary IP on xl 1 is currently 19x.xxx.xxx.1 and the mask on there is 255.255.255.128 (/25) If I add the alias with a mask of 255.255.255.240 (/28) which is the correct mask for this subnet, and the mask that all other machines use, then I am able to ping this address. However, at this point, no forwarding appears to take place for machines using this IP address as their default route. Is there any way to use an alias to do firewalling like this or do I have to get another network card? The problem with another network card is that will mean a whole new machine as I'm out of slots in this one.

You now want to add a 4th range, let's say, 192.168.4.0. Sorry about that... Let me be more specific about that... I will use 172.16.1.0 in place of my real IP range though. My real range is a /24 that has been subnetted for various companies that share our building. xl0 - Interface that my workstation network connects to and is natted out from xl1 - Interface that my servers all connect to, from both networks (eventually, I hope :) ) xl2 - Connection to router xl0 - 192.168.2.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 (/24) xl1 - 172.16.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.128 (/25) xl2 - 172.16.1.243 netmask 255.255.255.248 (/29) I am now trying to the network 172.16.1.192 netmask 255.255.255.240 (/28) to the firewall. The reserved router IP address for this range is 172.16.1.193. This is the address I was trying to add as an alias. ipconfig_xl1_alias0=inet 192.168.2.1 netmask 255.255.255.128 So in my case, the correct line will be ifconfig_xl1_alias0=inet 172.16.1.193 netmask 255.255.255.240 This would be my first alias, as all the other networks have their own card in the firewall... This is a temporary firewall though, and I've now run out of slots for another network card. In the final configuration, this network will have it's own network card. The only time you would use a netmask of 255.255.255.255 is if the aliased IP is a member of a subnet that is already assigned on the interface. That's what I thought, but I got stumped when the machine wouldn't forward packets coming in to this IP. Then you will need to add the appropriate firewall rules to allow those networks to either talk / no talk to the remaining network segments. The machines in 172.16.1.192/28 can talk to the machines in 172.16.1.0/25 without any problems, and vice versa. They just don't talk to machines beyond the firewall / on the internet. -- Wayne Pascoe I haven't lost my mind...

Different networks on same switch
Hi all, I have a firewall with three network cards. There are two networks on the inside of the firewall. One is private IP's and those are NATted by the firewall. The other is public IP's being protected by the firewall. The two internal networks used to be on separate switches. All of the machines on that network connected to a switch, and that switch connected to the firewall.

Is there any way I can resolve this, or do I have to go back to multiple switches ? Is this causing any problems ?

Source IP confusion
Hi all, I'm trying to setup firewalling for some machines, but I'm having some problems with services on aliases. I'll use 192.168.1.2 as the primary address and 192.168.1.3 as the alias for this example. I have applications like exim and bind, listening on 192.168.1.3 (an alias on a machine). They are only listening on the alias and on 127.0.0.1. They are NOT listening on 192.168.1.2 (the main IP Address). The problem I'm having is forcing that application to use its alias for outbound connections. Even though the local_interfaces in exim is set to 192.168.1.3, when it connects to a machine to deliver mail, that connection comes from 192.168.1.2 . This makes firewalling a bit of a pain, because I can't say 'Only allow port 25 traffic from the mail alias' - I have to allow it from the machine primary IP. Can anyone explain why this is and also if there is a way (without reverting to jails) of getting my applications to use an outgoing connection ?

Hardware requirements for firewall
Hi all, I'm trying to place a FreeBSD firewall into our network. It needs to be able to filter traffic for up to 50 machines using a total of up to 128 IP addresses between them. The daily average traffic inbound is 4276.3 kb/s with today's max being 7695.0 kb/s. We do need to be able to cope with up to 30 Mb/s for extended periods of time though (months). The network setup will be as follows: - 2 Cisco 36xx's connected to ISP's backbone and a 100Mb switch - FreeBSD machine with 2 interfaces, one connected to the same switch as the routers and the other connected to the switch that all the servers are connected to - 100Mb Switch with all hosting servers connected to it, as well as the second interface on the FreeBSD firewall I want to run the firewall in bridging mode, so there will be no IP's assigned to the ethernet interfaces of that machine, and it will be invisible on the network. I then want to use IPFW to filter all incoming and outgoing traffic. The machine I have in mind for this task is as follows: Pentium III 667 Mhz with 512MB RAM 2 x Intel EtherExpress 100Mb cards If this is not sufficient I have the following: Intel Xeon 2.80GHz with 2GB RAM 1 x Intel PRO/1000 Network adaptor 1 x Intel EtherExpress Pro/100(B) I would prefer to avoid having to use the second machine if at all possible as this has been designated as a server, but if the first machine listed here is not sufficient then I would have to.

securelevel problems
Hi all, I'm trying to upgrade a 4.7-RELEASE machine to 4.9. The make buildworld has gone ok, but installworld failed. At first, it appeared that this was because the machine was running in securelevel 1. I had the following in /etc/rc.conf: kern_securelevel_enable=YES kern_securelevel=1 I changed that to kern_securelevel_enable=NO kern_securelevel=-1 and rebooted the machine. sysctl -a | grep secure shows kern.securelevel: -1 however a make installworld is still failing with: 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. I then tried touching my kernel, which also fails, with: # touch kernel touch: kernel: Operation not permitted I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to proceed as the only thing I could think to do was to disable securelevel in /etc/rc.conf :( does anyone know what I may have missed or how I might rectify this issue ?

PostgreSQL on FreeBSD
Hi all, I'm trying to configure and tune postgresql on FreeBSD 4.9. We want to allow at least 128 concurrent connections but preferably 256. Looking at the documentation, we should be okay if we set the following in our kernel to achieve this: kern.ipc.somaxconn = 512 kern.ipc.shmall = 65536 kern.ipc.shmmni = 128 kern.ipc.semmni = 8 kern.ipc.semmns = 256 Now, I have three questions... 1. Why do we have to set these in the kernel ? Why does setting them in /etc/sysctl.conf or /etc/loader.conf not work ? 2. Is there a recommended list of settings that we should use in our kernel to allow 128 connections and 256 connections ? and lastly, 3. What is the impact on the rest of the system likely to be by setting aside this memory as shared memory ? Is it then no longer available to other applications like Apache and Exim ?

Logging and IPFW
Hi all, We're moving from ipfilter to ipfw. Since we no longer run multiple platforms, the benefits that we used to derive from ipfilter are declining. Add to this the problems we've had when running it as a module on 5.x (as opposed to compiled into the kernel), and we've decided to move to ipfw. I'm trying to setup logging with IPFW.

I have the following sysctl variables set: net.inet.ip.fw.verbose=1 net.inet.tcp.log_in_vain=1 net.inet.udp.log_in_vain=1 However, I am still not seeing anything in /var/log/messages when I portscan the machine.

I have the following in /etc/rc.conf firewall_enable=YES firewall_script=/etc/rc.firewall firewall_type=CLIENT firewall_quiet=NO firewall_logging=YES The only place I can see firewall_logging being used is in /etc/rc.conf and that is being used to set a sysctl variable : echo 'Firewall logging=YES' sysctl net.inet.ip.fw.verbose=1 /dev/null any ideas on what I'm doing wrong here ? thanks in advance , -- Wayne Pascoe Look buddy, doesn't work is a strong statement.

This means that when you call startx, you're starting the older version, which in turn calls the older version of X. Your best bet is to remove the port entirely, remove the existing X server and re-install the port. This way you'll only have one version of X on the box. The other way would be to get a list of all files that the port installed and remove any other copies of those files in locations other than where the port installed.

Checking an out of date website
Hi all, I'm wondering if someone can recommend a tool to help me do the following : I have a very large website (2.4GB) of which much of the content is out of date / no longer used. What I want is a tool that will download a copy of the website, so that I can see which bits are still linked to and part of the site heirachy. If I match the list of files from this tool against the list of files on the server, the difference should be all files that are not linked to from the site, and are not navigable to. In theory, I could then safely delete these files. I've found a couple of tools that can mostly do this. My problem comes in from the fact that much of the navigation is done in flash though. So most of the link checkers / spiders can't follow these links. This could mean that what I end up with is not the whole of the site that is still active.

AMI Megaraid, failed array
Hi all, A FreeBSD 4.7 machine with an AMI Megaraid controller and 3 disks in a RAID 5 array failed on me this week. One of the disk drives went into offline state due to overheating and the array, to the best of my knowledge should have continued in degraded mode. Two things concern me at this point. 1. There were no messages in /var/log/messages to indicate that a disk had failed and the array was in degraded mode. 2. With 2 disks of the array still online, we were unable to read / execute loads of data. Many text files were unreadable and system binaries like tar unusable. When we got the disk back online and rebooted the box, we were able to easily read data, and files that appeared to be corrupt turned out not to be. Can anyone advise me on why I saw what I saw and how I can get around this in the future.

Cisco Aironet PCI card - Working but Flaky
Hi all, I've tried the Cisco wireless card and it works to a point. I've used ifconfig to configure the an0 device, and it manages to join the network. However, I'm having problems with the speed. When I first tried using the if_an.ko module, I got the following in my messages file: Jan 9 18:32:11 ford /kernel: an0: Cisco Aironet 350 Series port 0x9400-0x943f,0x9000-0x907f mem 0xde00-0xde7f irq 10 at device 13.0 on pci0 Jan 9 18:32:11 ford /kernel: an0: Ethernet address: 00:40:96:5a:17:97 Jan 9 18:32:11 ford /kernel: sio1: configured irq 3 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 The sio1 message happened every time I loaded the module, even though I don't have a com2 port (disabled in bios). I then compiled the an driver into the kernel and tried again. The sio1 message went away, but I was still having horrifically slow ping times to another machine on the network (anywhere from 400ms to 1000ms). I was also getting frequent an0: device timeout messages and I would have to reinit the device before it would work again. I checked IRQ's and it was sharing an IRQ with my USB device. I then installed my ethernet card back into the system and now the Aironet gets an IRQ of 12 (shared with sound card). Ping times and packet loss are now _marginally_ better, but I'm still seeing anywhere between 32 and 243 ms ping response times 64 bytes from 192.168.10.1: icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=61.749 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.10.1: icmp_seq=5 ttl=64 time=243.926 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.10.1: icmp_seq=6 ttl=64 time=16.505 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.10.1: icmp_seq=7 ttl=64 time=83.430 ms I've moved these machines quite close together and abaout a room apart yet it makes no difference.

Tobi S. [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Hello FreeBSD-questions-Team, I read on your Homepage that FreeBSD is currently not supporting 32bit pcmcia(cardbus?) ethernet devices. Is that right? Or is there a possibility to make it work? It's an ALLNET ALL0146 10/100 PCMCIA Card with Realtek 8139 architecture. Cardbus is not supported in FreeBSD-STABLE. It is however supported in FreeBSD-CURRENT. CURRENT is a development version and as such is subject to instability and problems, but many people are successfully using it.

Re: can't start installation on ASUS P2L97-S
Joe Fhe Barbish [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Dear all, I can't start FreeBSD installation either from CD, nor from Floppy. System hangs at hw probe in a fashion that i can't interprete. BIOS upgrade, removing physical hw equipment, disabling devices at bios level didn't helped at all (Please, have a look at history below for details). I haven't been following this so please ignore me if this has already been suggested - Do you have assign IRQ for USB devices set in your BIOS? I had a similar problem and I had that option set to no. Setting it to yes fixed the problem.
