Re: kern_jail_set() Error Scenario Question

2013-08-23 Thread James Gritton
On 08/22/13 17:46, Matt Miller wrote:
 We ran into the following scenario in an application recently and were
 wondering if the behavior of kern_jail_set() is as expected here.

 This was an application bug where we were in, say, the JID 1 context
 and tried to call jailparam_set() with the flags (JAIL_CREATE |
 JAIL_UPDATE) and the jid param set to 1.  The basic idea was to
 create or update JID 1 with some params, but the error was we were
 already in the JID 1 context.  So, our understanding is this shouldn't
 work since JID 1 already exists and you can only modify it from a
 proper ancestor.

 However, rather than getting an error back from jailparam_set(), it
 ended up creating a second prison with JID 1, so there were two
 prisons existing with JID 1 at that point.  This is based on 8.2.0
 code, but, at first glance, it looks like the logic causing this may
 be the same in head.

 Looking at kern_jail_set(), what happens here is:

 1. We find a prison with JID=1, however since it's not a proper child
 we set pr = NULL in line 1024:

 1011 pr = prison_find(jid);
 1012 if (pr != NULL) {
 1013 ppr = pr-pr_parent;
 1014 /* Create: jid must not exist. */
 1015 if (cuflags == JAIL_CREATE) {
 1016 mtx_unlock(pr-pr_mtx);
 1017 error = EEXIST;
 1018 vfs_opterror(opts, jail %d
 already exists,
 1019 jid);
 1020 goto done_unlock_list;
 1021 }
 1022 if (!prison_ischild(mypr, pr)) {
 1023 mtx_unlock(pr-pr_mtx);
 1024 pr = NULL;
 1025 } else if (pr-pr_uref == 0) {

 2. Since pr is NULL, we create a new prison.  Since the jid is not
 zero, we insert it in the list and set its pr_id.  At this point, we
 have two prisons with a JID of 1 and the same parent prison.

 1166 /* If there's no prison to update, create a new one and
 link it in. */
 1167 if (pr == NULL) {
 ...
 1185 pr = malloc(sizeof(*pr), M_PRISON, M_WAITOK | M_ZERO);
 1186 if (jid == 0) {
 ...
 1212 } else {
 1213 /*
 1214  * The jail already has a jid (that did
 not yet exist),
 1215  * so just find where to insert it.
 1216  */
 1217 TAILQ_FOREACH(tpr, allprison, pr_list)
 1218 if (tpr-pr_id = jid) {
 1219 TAILQ_INSERT_BEFORE(tpr,
 pr, pr_list);
 1220 break;
 1221 }
 1222 }
 ...
 1229 pr-pr_parent = ppr;
 1230 pr-pr_id = jid;

 We wanted to see if this is per design or a situation that should
 avoid creating the second prison and return an error.

That's definitely not per design.  I'll try reproducing this, and put in
correct logic.  The proper response is indeed an error: ENOENT, because
from inside the JID 1 context you shouldn't be able to see jail #1 (you
can't operate on your own jail).

Re: Custom Software for Municipalities

2013-08-20 Thread James Gosnell
I've done better looking MVC framework websites using PHP Yii Framework,
Perl Catalyst or Perl Mojolicious. It was a while ago, but I had no
experience with MVC back then. It took me about a week to completely grok
the frameworks and concepts (like authorization model abstraction). After
you have knowledge of the framework, I would say it would take a day to
make the simple CRUD layout that you see and then a week or two to polish
it off. I would conservatively give a programmer a month to complete and
polish a similar system, with all the database design, modifications to the
views, models and controllers. It looks like the programmer might of been
using ASP MVC, but I can't fully tell. I'd recommend you go with an
open-source stack of FreeBSD, PostgreSQL Database and one of the Frameworks
I mentioned above. I'd recommend Ruby on Rails if I knew more about it. I
have no knowledge of Python MVC frameworks.

 This requirement of disclosure isn't so much an open source thing, it's
 required by some popular licenses (like the GPL). The rather large group
 of people in software has groups that prefer restrictive licenses like the
 GPL, and other groups who prefer licenses with fewer restrictions.

 Be aware that FreeBSD isn't covered by a single license. Rather, it is
 made up of a large number of pieces of software that came from various
 sources over a lot of years.

 In general FreeBSD tries to avoid using those kinds of license that you
 are saying you want to avoid. But in the set of all software that make up
 FreeBSD there is still code left covered by it. With a little care you can
 avoid getting bitten by this. Which leads to my next point...

  If you can provide some information/direction in this regard, I would
  greatly appreciate it.

 I want to second the advice of talking to a lawyer who specializes in
 copyright. The lawyer should be working for you and paid by you (or your
 business, etc). Any time real money is involved you should hire a lawyer.

 Any time real money is involved you should hire a lawyer. Any time the
 outcome matters you should hire a lawyer.

 Seriously, your use of the term EULA shows you need to talk to a lawyer.

 Give your lawyer the FreeBSD source code and your lawyer can look at it
 and advise you.

 But don't let this scare you. With a little care you will probably be just
 fine.

 There are no error messages or any sign of a problem anywhere, other
 than the really terrible performance.  (When not rebuilding, it does
 light NFS duty.  That performance is similarly bad, but has never
 really mattered.)

 Similar systems running Solaris put out 10x these numbers claiming 30%
 busy instead of 90% busy.

 Does anyone have any suggestions for how I could troubleshoot this
 further?  At this point, I'm kind of at a loss as to where to go from
 here.  My goal is to try to phase out the Solaris machines, but this
 is kind of a roadblock.

 Thanks for any advice!

FreeBSD 9.1 won't boot after install

2013-07-05 Thread James E. Pace
Hi,

I bought an HP Pavilion p7-1597c [1] system last week.  It is Intel Core
i5-3330, with a Seagate 1.5 TB SATA drive and 12 GB of memory, shipped with
Windows 8.

I have disabled Secure Boot and enabled Legacy device booting.

I am able to complete the install of FreeBSD 9.1/amd64 from the CD without
any problems.  However, when I attempt to boot, it doesn't.

Originally I was trying to dual boot with Win 8, but eventually I rendered
Win8 unbootable.  So, now I have given FreeBSD the whole disk.  I have done
the standard install.  I found instructions to have the install use MBR
(instead of GPT), but that also doesn't work.

After an install, I get to the boot0 (the F1 boot menu thing) screen, but
when it tries to boot, it prints # and doesn't boot.  When trying to
share the disk with Windows, mostly I'd get boot errors about not having a
bootable device (ERROR: No boot disk has been detected or the disk has
failed.).

In the BIOS setting, I've tried both IDE and AHCI in Storage Options -
SATA emulation.

PC-BSD 9.1 has the same results.  It installs fine, but resets after
selecting something at the boot0 prompt.

FreeBSD 8.4 wouldn't install because the installer didn't have device node
for /dev/ad4s1b in /dev in order to create the filesystems.  I haven't
spent any time figuring out what's going on here. [Using the Standard
Installer, accepted the message about geometry, told it to use the whole
disk, use the standard boot manager, used the auto-default filesystems,
told it to go...]

Ubuntu Linux works.
OpenBSD works.
NetBSD works.
Fedora Linux works.

I've been a FreeBSD user for about 16 years, so I really want this to work.

Does anyone have suggestions about what else I should try?

Thanks,

James

 boot0 is the multi-boot loader.  I'm reasonably sure it will not work on a 
 GPT disk.  GPT needs the PMBR loader.  This should be correctable by using 
 the Shell option of the install disk:
   # gpart bootcode -b /boot/pmbr -p /boot/gptboot -i 1 ada0

 The installer would write that by default on a blank disk.  I don't know what 
 it does when partitions are added to a GPT disk.  For that matter, I'm not 
 sure how you got boot0 on there.

boot0 must have been installed when I did MBR partitioning, and/or PCBSD did it?

 If there is nothing on the disk to lose, I would start from scratch by going 
 to the shell from the installer:
   # gpart destroy -F ada0

 Return to the installer, and it should find the entire disk unpartitioned.

I booted the 9.1 install CD, executed gpart destroy -F ada0, and
installed.  After completing the install, boot fails with:

ERROR: No boot disk has been detected or the disk has failed.

I booted the install CD again, and executed:

# gpart bootcode -b /boot/pmbr -p /boot/gptboot -i 1 ada0

and rebooted.

I got the same error:

ERROR: No boot disk has been detected or the disk has failed.

 If you really want to multi-boot, reinstall Windows 8.

The Windows ship has sailed -- the system didn't come with media, and
the install has been removed.  So, I'm committed. :)

Do you have any other suggestions?

Thanks,

James

[pc/free]bsd *can* be used as a desktop system, but it's really aimed 
more at servers... a lot of common desktopy things aren't covered well. 
Based on the wording of your question it sounds like you're new to 
non-windows systems. I'd suggest you look into some flavor of linux 
instead (eg; ubuntu or mint): they'll be geared more towards what 
you'd be looking for I think.

ZFS - whole disk or partition or BSD slice?

2013-01-27 Thread james

I have a 9.1 system with some SATA disks in RAIDZ, upgraded from 9.0.

The disks are all the same type, and I formatted them for FreeBSD and 
put ZFS in a slice covering most of them.


I have seen suggestions for OpenIndiana etc that it is better to let ZFS 
have the whole raw disk and that this can control the way it manages the 
disk writeback mode.


Does this apply to FreeBSD and ZFS too?

Presumably the disks are currently FreeBSD-specific.  If I used raw 
disks instead of slices, could I read them from a Solaris system too?

I've unpacked 9.1-RELEASE onto it using bsdinstall.


Now, the crappy PERC5 and the AMI BIOS in my little AMD mobo don't 
really see eye to eye and I've had a lot of trouble coaxing it to boot 
from the RAID volume (the RAID card initialises late it seems).


I'm happy to keep /boot on the SATA SSD for now.

Is there a straightforward way to configure (the menus to) boot from 9.1?

I'm happy enough to rename /boot on the SSD and copy over the contents 
from 9.1 (really the old 9.0+ system is there as insurance for the moment).


Is the simplest mechanism to do that and override rootdev in loader.conf?

It seems that there are a number of variables with /boot/... paths so 
its not so easy to switch between (say) /boot90 and /boot91.

Autotools, libraries and man pages: oh my!

2012-11-01 Thread James Colannino
Hey everyone,

So, I have a question.  I have Makefile.am, configure.in and a file
called dstring.pc.in (for a library of mine called dstring) for a
project.  It always built fine on Linux.  My home is now FreeBSD.  This
is the first time I've tried to compile/install this library since
moving away from Linux.  I'm able to use autotools on FreeBSD to
generate configure and Makefile.in, and can use gmake to compile and
install it.

Unfortunately, the man pages are installed to /usr/local/share/man
instead of to /usr/local/man, which I thought the tools would've taken
care of.  Also, even though I see my library was successfully compiled
and installed to /usr/local/lib, when I try to compile a program with
gcc source.c -ldstring, I get:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ldstring

Other open source projects I've seen have installed fine on FreeBSD just
with the simple configure --prefix=/usr/local  make  make install. 
I'm not sure what's wrong with my own setup.

Disclaimer: I have no idea what I'm doing :)  Does anyone have a stab in
the dark that might help me fix these things?  I can send any of the
three files above if you need to see them.

Thanks so much everyone!

James

remote connections to xdm

2012-10-18 Thread James D. Parra
Hello,

I set up xdm on a server (FreeBSD 9)and I can connect to it from any machine on 
the same local network as the server, but not from computers on different 
network, for example networks connected via a tunnel. Is there something to be 
added in /etc/hosts.allow or in the xdm config files to allow connections from 
specific IP subnets?

Thank you in advance.

 Have you tried loading the generic driver to see if your audio card is picked

   # kldload snd_driver
 
 then try

 which will show more info about it? That's what's recommended in the handbook.

Re: Problem with r-o access in jail

2012-08-22 Thread James Edwards
 Want a nullfs filesystem to be read-only for tech people to search-only
 maillog files.

 host machine's files:

 /var/log/mx1/maillog* files

 the maillog files are all 644 and r bit is set all along the path


 using ezjail

 jail root is /var/jails

 jail name is fixit

 mkdir -p /var/jails/fixit/mx1

 fixit/mx1 dir has 644 and r bit is set all along the path


The directory permissions should have the execute bit set, it should be
set to 755 instead of 644.

 mount_nullfs -o ro /var/log/mx1 /var/jails/fixit/mx1


 ezjail-admin console fixit  as fixit jail root user


 I add a user fixit:fixit


 ssh logon to fixit jail's ip as  user fixit

 ll /mx1

 gives nothing but:

 ls: maillog.45.bz2: Permission denied
 ls: maillog.46.bz2: Permission denied
 ls: maillog.47.bz2: Permission denied
 ls: maillog.48.bz2: Permission denied
 ls: maillog.49.bz2: Permission denied
 ls: maillog.5.bz2: Permission denied
 ls: maillog.50.bz2: Permission denied
 ls: maillog.51.bz2: Permission denied


If your permissions are set to 644 on the directories, this is the result
of 'ls'.  After changing the directories permissions to 755, the
'Permission denied' errors will stop.



 ezjail-admin console fixit

 ...shows the  /mx1/maillog* files all to be 644

 If move the jail fixit user from group fixit to group wheel, user fixit
 has access to /mx1/maillog* files.

 suggestions?

 thanks,
 Len

Re: Building a FreeBSD desktop.

2012-08-20 Thread James D. Parra
I was looking to build a desktop to learn FreeBSD and was wondering if there
is a list of parts to build one or to just look at the hardware
comparability list? I just don't want to order wrong parts.


If don't want to make the full commitment to building a desktop, a good way to 
learn about FreeBSD is to install within a virtual machine. Either VMWare or 
VirtualBox will serve you well.

Best regards,

Hello,

The text you gave us gives me the thought you are flailing in the dark. First 
off, use a port management tool eg portmaster. Learn how to use it fully 
including regularly reading /usr/ports/UPDATING The handbook has great 
information on managing ports, I suggest reading it closely if you want FreeBSD 
to be your friend. 

In this scenario, you would use 

portsnap fetch update(assuming you've once a portsnap extract once before) 
portmaster /usr/ports/net/samba35 

The specific error in your message indicates some problem with ccache. What 
does your /etc/make.conf look like?

Thanks all for your replies. I had copied the details from what I had done 
from, http://forums.freebsd.org/archive/index.php/t-21461.html. I knew what the 
OP meant so I had issued, portsnap fetch, then portsnap extract, on my system.

I was able to get this to work on FreeBSD 8.2 and was hoping to also get this 
working on 9.0. Since I will be using Kerberos, I use, 'make 
KRB5_HOME=/usr/local install clean'. My /etc/make.conf file has the following;

 cat /etc/make.conf
# Uncomment this if you want to do port builds with no interaction
#BATCH=yes
# Keep KDE4 in /usr/local, fixes sharing of icons / mime and others
KDE4_PREFIX=/usr/local
# added by use.perl 2012-06-28 21:39:00
PERL_VERSION=5.12.4
#To build Samba

I do need ADS as I will be joining this server to our domain.

explanation of how to install and use FreeBSD on a Pc. I tried to follow the

Re: Mouse stopped working in X

2012-05-18 Thread James Ballantine
Bernt,

I tried what you suggested, and after discovering that dbus was not installed 
correctly
and rebuilding and reinstalling, your suggestion worked.  So at least there is
a work around until the real cause is found and fixed.

Thanks
Jim

 Hi,
 
 Before the update of x11 on 4/21/2012, X was working fine, but now
 when I startx, my usb and touchpad mouse are no longer found.  The
 mouse works in terminal mode, and hald and dbus are started in
 /etc/rc.conf.
 
 I have exactly the same problem. What windowmanager are you
 using? I'm using xfce4, I have a workaround for that.
 
 1. start X
 2. when it comes up press alt+F2, the start program dialog comes up
 3. type in xterm or your terminal of choice
 4. in your terminal su to root then type
 
 /usr/local/etc/rc.d/dbus restart  /usr/local/etc/rc.d/hald restart
 
 wait a few seconds and the mouse should work again.

Re: (mutt +) msmtp problem?

2012-05-16 Thread James Edwards
 I use mutt (1.5.21) with msmtp (1.4.28) as MDA. Usually, everything goes
 smoothly, but every once in a while I lose network connectivity when
 sending email (I don't recall whether there is a correlation between
 this problem and my trying to send not-so-big but yet around 1mb files).

 Basically, what happens in trying to send an email is:

 May 16 10:01:17  wpa_supplicant[662]: CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED
 bssid=**:**:**:**:**:** reason=0
 ...
 May 16 10:02:27  wpa_supplicant[662]: CTRL-EVENT-CONNECTED -
 Connection to **:**:**:**:**:** completed (reauth) [id=0 id_str=]
 ...

 Then I try again, and the same thing happens. All msmtp's log shows is:

 errormsg='cannot write to TLS connection: Pipe Broken' exitcode=EX_IOERR

 Any ideas?

 Best,
 Ramiro


Based on above, mutt and msmpt *appear* to be fine, but this seems to be a
problem with the wireless driver, card, or router - you are being
disconnected from the network, which in turn is causing the 'broken pipe'.

You could feasibly work around it by using a wired connection, or take a
look at what is going on with your wireless.

Questions about Jail

2012-04-03 Thread James Y Chen
Hi

I think Jail on FreeBSD 8.2 can generate 2 jailed machine using the same
version of FreeBSD, for example, on a 8.2 AMD64 Jailer, I can create 2
or more FreeBSD 8.2 amd64 Jailed machine.

My question is: can I install other version of FreeBSD on the Jailed
environment? If yes, which steps shall I do? Still using make world or
other easier way?

thanks

How to build 9.0 from source?

2012-02-05 Thread james

I installed 9.0 without sources.

Now I'd like to try building the kernel (or specifically the mfi 
driver), so I've tried to get the sources.


The handbook says (in 9.55) to use sysinstall to get the source 
configuration - but that doesn't seem to work and what its trying to 
fetch seems more like an 8.x source set,


I fetched src.txz and unpacked it and sorted out the /usr/src/sys link, 
and 'make' in the root of that builds the boot code ok.


However, there is no /usr/src/UPDATING to check per 9.5, and 'cd 
/usr/src;make buildkernel' tells me:


make: don't know how t make buildkerel. Stop.

/usr/src was empty before I set up the 'sys' link (which in my case 
points to a zfs volume).


It seems wrong to m - how can I get sources etc installed so I can build 
the kernel? (And userspace if necessary - but its the mfi driver I want 
to fiddle with)

Moving boot/root disk in 9.0

2012-02-05 Thread james
Now that I've moved to stable and mfi is working, I'd like to stop 
booting off my SATA SSD (and also move ZIL off it) to a RAID1 on the PERC.


I've sliced up the disk etc, but is there a handy procedure I can use to 
move the relevant parts of / to /newboot (where I've currently mounted 
the new boot slice)?


I'm thinking its not a straightforward tar in '/': /data is a ZFS root 
volume and contains a number of volumes for user home areas (mounted 
under /home) and also volumes mounted on /usr/src, /usr/obj and 
/usr/ports.  And then there's /dev too.


Once I've got everything moved I'll disable the ZIL and move over by 
fiddling the BIOS priorities.

2012-01-17 Thread Jimmie James
Sorry for top posting in this message, but one reboot and a ldconfig -R 
allows everything to be rebuilt.
Not sure which was the key here, but for others, I'd try ldconfig -R 
first. Not sure why portupgrade and portmaster failed though.

Problem with mfi driver, 9.0-RELEASE

2012-01-15 Thread james
I transferred a PERC5/i controller to my NAS system, which is using a 
Sapphire mini-ITX board with an AMD M350 CPU.


It seems the card is detected but driver initialisation fails:

This would seem to be similar to discussions in November which 
eventually led to JHB committing change in r227580 (and perhaps earlier).


I have downloaded the sources for 9.0-RELEASE and it looks like this 
commit did not get back-ported to the release branch.


I'm a bit of a noob with FreeBSD.  The instructions for tracking 
FreeBSD-STABLE seem a bit scary.  Is that the only way that I would get 
the necessary fixes for the mfi driver?  (Indeed, would I get those on 
FreeBSD stable?)

How much of the manual needs adjustment for 9.0?

2012-01-15 Thread james

I originally installed without selecting sources.

The manual says to run sysinstall and do the configuration step to add 
source distribution and I did that, but it then failed to download the 
'sbase' source.  I admit I gave up 'fairly quickly' and just downloaded 
src.txz, but its not clear to me how many of the functions of sysinstall 
are still supposed to work with a 9.0 release.

Re: 8.2 fails to boot after install on Sun

2012-01-03 Thread James Edwards
On Tue, January 3, 2012 15:33, Miller, Leonard wrote:
 Hi,
 I have tried installing 8.2 Sparc on a Sun system multiple times, using
 different options, and each time I do, it takes me back to the initial
 options screen, where I have to exit the install, forcing it to halt.  I
 am never prompted to install a boot manager or anything else.  I always
 get through the install process, installing packages, adding users,
 network settings, etc.


Your install experience sounds normal and successful.  When you are
finished and exit the installer, it should take you to the openboot
prompt.  All you *should* need to do is type in 'boot', the system will
reboot and boot to disk.

You don't need to worry about a boot manager as multibooting isn't
supported on this platform.

 When I power cycle the machine and change the boot settings back to
 defaults, it fails to boot.


If it fails to boot, I'm assuming it is stopping at the OpenBoot prompt? 
Can you elaborate further?

What happens when you type 'boot disk' at the openboot prompt?  If it
boots, auto-boot may not be set correctly, which can be rectified by
'setenv auto-boot? true' at the openboot prompt.

If that does not work, what is the output of 'printenv' - specifically
what is 'boot-device' set to?

Also, some further reading on installing FreeBSD on sparc64:
http://www.freebsdwiki.net/index.php/Sparc_-_Installing_FreeBSD
-and for more detail-
http://www.freebsdwiki.net/index.php/Installation_on_Ultra_5

Hope this helps,

It seems that you are currently receiving your resolver from DHCP as

I already have nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf.  Everything was fine

Static IP on a Bridge

2011-12-29 Thread james
Hey everyone.  I've successfully setup a network bridge in  
/etc/rc.conf.  However, I am only able to access the network if I dhcp  
on bridge0 *after* the bridge is configured.  If I try to set a static  
IP on the bridge, things don't work.  Here's my /etc/rc.conf:


cloned_interfaces=bridge0 tap0 tap1
ifconfig_bridge0=addm re0 addm tap0 addm tap1 up inet 192.168.1.6  
netmask 255.255.255.0

ifconfig_re0=up
ifconfig_tap0=up
ifconfig_tap1=up
defaultrouter=192.168.1.1

bridge0 is configured with the IP 192.168.1.6, but I can't ping out.   
However, once I run dhclient in bridge0, things magically work.  Does  
anyone know why the above won't work?  Thanks!

It took some time to do, but I was able to demonstrate within VirtualBox
that this can be done.

I found it important when creating tank/8.2/usr and tank/8.2/var to
specify 'canmount=off', this way the datasets below it inherit the correct
mountpoints.

After installing 8.2, I created tank/9.0-RC3, associated datasets and then
installed 9.0-RC3 to it.  From there, I had to create a loader.conf and
rc.conf, copy the zpool.cache to the dataset, change the bootfs ('zpool
set bootfs=tank/9.0 tank'), change the zfs mountpoints and reboot.  After
I rebooted, I was able to upgrade the zpool to v28.

While this was done from a minimal clean install, it *should* work from a
system that is using the user-land (as long as the daemons are stopped).

You, sir, are correct about the chroot. Bind 9.8.1 and OpenSSL 1.0.0 don't

as I experienced the problem on Solaris 10.

Serial console with incorrect terminal set

2011-11-16 Thread James Edwards
Hi All,

I have two servers currently colocated, one running FreeBSD 8.2/amd64 ,
and the other is a Sun Netra T1 that I am attempting to install FreeBSD
8.2 on, over serial.

When the system booted up, I was presented with a list of console options
and I chose the first option, I believe to be ANSI (I have a knack for
never picking the right one).  The keyboard mapping was a bit screwed up,
but somehow I managed to get to the Fixit shell.  In order to test that I
had my secondary NIC setup correctly, I just ran 'ping 10.0.0.2' and now
it wont stop.

If I hit 'Ctrl+C', it keeps going.  I tried 'Ctrl+Z' in order to attempt
to suspend it so I can kill the process, but that brings up the 'Abort,
Restart, Continue' screen, but it gets interrupted by ping.  I tried
sending a break command using '~#', but I can't get to the OpenFirmware to
restart in attempt to pick the correct terminal settings.  IIRC, the break
is not supported without a kernel that supports it.

It could be easier to call my ISP and have someone power down the machine
for me, as the Netra has LOM.  In a worse case scenario, I can swing by
and do it myself after work.

My question is, is there another way to either 1) Stop ping or 2) Get to
the openfirmware console?

Thanks,
James

 You can stop ping with :

From the ping man page:

Stop after sending (and receiving) count ECHO_RESPONSE packets.
If this option is not specified, ping will operate until inter-

 So with something like ping -c4 10.0.0.2 , it would stop after 4 pings.

 Good luck ;)

Hello Adriaan,

Thanks for the response, but unfortunately, that's not really what I was
looking for, as it was not feasible - I was unable to open another
terminal in order to kill the ping process.  I probably should have
elaborated more, but I was running this from a fixit live cd, but do you
know if it is possible to open more than one terminal over serial?

I ended up having it powered off earlier today, and when I powered it back
on, I made sure to have the correct console keyboard layout, and CTRL + C
was working correctly.

Thanks,
James

No color on CUPS

2011-11-06 Thread James Colannino

Hey everyone,

I hope this is FreeBSD-specific enough for this list...  Ever since 
moving to FreeBSD, I haven't been able to use color on my color 
laserjet.  I've tried selecting just about every color laserjet model 
from the web interface to CUPS that I can think of, and the only color 
models available are grayscale and inverted grayscale.  I was always 
able to get color no problem on my Linux box.  I know there's something 
stupid that I'm missing, but I'm not really knowledgeable about CUPS, 
much less CUPS on FreeBSD.


Has anyone else had this problem, and if so, how did you fix it?  Thanks 
so much!

Checking for broken packages (as in linking)

No, I don't mean checking for broken ports :-P  In fact, when I Google 
around for the answer to my question, that's all I can find, which is 
why I bring my question to the mailing list instead :)  Maybe broken 
ports or broken packages isn't the right term (what should I be 
searching for instead?)


What I want to know is, are there tools that will check the ports I've 
installed and tell me if any of my packages are linked against libraries 
that are no longer there?  I'm paranoid that at some point, while I'm 
building and installing updates, I'm going to break something.

limit number of ssh connections

2011-09-19 Thread James Strother
Does anyone know a good way of limiting the number of ssh attempts
from a single IP address?

I found the following website, which describes a variety of approaches:

http://www.freebsdwiki.net/index.php/Block_repeated_illegal_or_failed_SSH_logins


But I am honestly not really happy with any of them.  Continuously
polling log files for regex hits seems...well crude.  Just to give you
an idea of what I mean, here were some of the issues I had. The
sshd-scan.sh script allows IPs to be reinstated, but the timing is
dependent on how frequently you rotate logs.  sshguard has a pretty
website, but I can't actually find much useful documentation on how to
configure it.  fail2ban looks like it might work with sufficient work,
but the defaults are terrible.  By default, every time an IP is
reinstated, all IPs are reinstated.  Not to mention, at present I
can't seem to get it to trigger any hits.

I suppose I could keep shopping, but the truth is I just think polling
log files is the wrong way to solve the problem.  Anything based on
this approach is going to have a long latency and be highly dependent
on the unspecified and unstable formatting of log files (see
http://www.fail2ban.org/wiki/index.php/HOWTO_Mac_OS_X_Server_(10.4)
and the troubles an exclamation point can cause).

I would much much rather do something like this:

http://kevin.vanzonneveld.net/techblog/article/block_brute_force_attacks_with_iptables/

Does anyone know a way to do something similar with ipfw?


Thanks in advance,

Re: limit number of ssh connections

2011-09-19 Thread James Strother
Wow, I'm glad I asked.  This has been very helpful.

@Григорьев Александр
Thanks for the tip on inetd, that looks like it might just do the trick.

@Paul Macdonald
My main reason for looking into this was glancing through the logs on
a server I just put online and seeing large numbers of unauthorized
login attempts.  Everything so far is highly unsophisticated, but it
did make me start to really think about the issue.  I might put ssh
onto a different port, that would at least stop the sort of fishing I
am currently seeing.  It's not clear if that would be good enough.

@Damien Fleuriot
Have you had success with sshguard?  Installed it from ports, but then
I couldn't quite figure out how to configure it.  To be honest, I
didn't give it much of a chance before I moved on to the next thing,
so if you've had good luck then I should probably give it another
shot.  I did flip through sshd_config, but as far as I can tell it is
only possible to limit the number of concurrent connections.  It might
take a little longer, but I'm concerned it would still allow a
malicious individual to sequentially brute-force a password.

Thanks for all the responses.

That seems to be the normal behavior, because toor has the id of root.

libnotify notification-daemon oddness

2011-08-26 Thread Jimmie James

libnotify-0.7.3_1
notification-daemon-0.7.1
FreeBSD jimmiejaz.org 8.2-STABLE FreeBSD 8.2-STABLE #0: Sun Jun 26 
08:42:45 EDT 2011 jim...@jimmiejaz.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/FORTYTWO 
 i386


After following the portupgrade steps to update libnotify and libproxy 
(notification-daemon got rebuild as well), I've lost pop-up 
notifications in XFCE4. Thunderbird, transmission were rebuilt as well.


Before, thunderbird, transmission would show a box with information when 
they wanted attention, now they don't.
All I'm seeing is libnotify-WARNING **: Failed to connect to proxy 
when the event is supposed to happen.


The only thing I can really see is:
/usr/local/share/dbus-1/services/org.freedesktop.Notifications.service 
is no longer installed.

From the notification-daemon Makefile is it's not using GTK3.

Is anyone else seeing this, have an idea how to restore the expected 
behavior?

We've been talking about ATI lockups on the forums:
http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=25540

It's mystifying to me, since I haven't seen the lockups at all.



Thanks for the heads up, replied to the thread there, and will here too.

Switching to XAA fixes this lock up for me. However, changing a window 
size, opening a new app causing flickering of said window.
Changing desktops is laggy, and windows from desktop 1 appear for about 
5-10 seconds on desktop 2.

FreeBSD won't install after Fixit

2011-08-09 Thread James Colannino

Hey everyone,

I have the FreeBSD DVD (amd64) and, during an install, used the Fixit 
option (while choosing to mount the DVD as the live filesystem) to load 
a kernel module.  After exiting the fixit shell and attempting a 
standard install, when it came time to install packages, I got the 
following error:


Error mounting /dev/acd0 on /dist: Input/output error (5)

I also noticed that once I've chosen the CDROM/DVD option under Fixit 
once, I can't do it again, and get the same error when I try.  It 
appears that /dev/acd0 can only be mounted once by the installer.


Is this a known issue, and if so, is there a way to work around this so 
that I can load kernel modules before continuing on with the 
installation?  I could remain within the fixit environment and do the 
entire install manually, but I'd really rather not do that...


Thanks!

Ok, so it turns out that the reason for this was that I was using a VM.  
I tested this on an ordinary system, and when you exit the Fixit prompt, 
it ejects the disk.  This was happening in the VM, only I didn't realize 
it because the CD-ROM was being emulated.  When it came time to mount 
the disk a second time, the disk wasn't there, and so that's why it was 
complaining.

FBSD 8.2 and USB Floppies

2011-07-18 Thread James Colannino

Hey everyone,

I have a FBSD 8.2 install.  I've been trying to mount DOS formatted 
floppy disks via a USB floppy drive, and have been getting the following 
error every time:


cannot mount /dev/da0: invalid argument

I was curious to see what would happen if I created a UFS filesystem on 
the floppy and tried to mount it.  So, I issued the following command:


newfs /dev/da0

It was successful.  I then tried to mount the new filesystem (mount 
/dev/da0 /mnt), and got the same error: invalid argument.  Does FBSD 
have a problem mounting USB floppy disks?  It's not a big deal, as my 
other USB storage devices seem to work, and as I have an ordinary floppy 
drive I can try, but that curious part of me wants to know why this 
isn't working.


I can provide dmesg output, if necessary.

Thanks!

  Have you tried:

mount_msdosfs /dev/da0 /mnt


Not sure if this would work with a UFS filesystem :)  I did try this 
when the disk was formatted with a DOS filesystem, however, and I still 
got the same error.

I've been Googling around, trying to figure out how to see Windows 
printers via CUPS on FreeBSD, but so far, all I've found are links

That looks like it might help.  Thanks for the link.

 The only thing that comes to my mind is that this

what to do with multimedia/xvid4conf

2011-05-06 Thread Jimmie James

pkgdb -Ff
---  Checking the package registry database
Stale origin: 'multimedia/xvid4conf': perhaps moved or obsoleted.
- The port 'multimedia/xvid4conf' was removed on 2011-05-02 because:
Has expired: Upstream has disapear and distfile is no more available
- Hint:  xvid4conf-1.12_5 is required by the following package(s):
subtitleripper-0.3.4_5
dvdrip-0.98.11_3
transcode-1.1.5_15

- Hint: checking for overwritten files...
 - No files installed by xvid4conf-1.12_5 have been overwritten by 
other packages.

Deinstall xvid4conf-1.12_5 ? [no]

Since it's required by other ports, removing it will break them, so I 
have to be harassed by this message every time I update my ports?  Is 
there a way to hide this?

Audacious works fine here. But I don't have an icecast.so file in
/usr/local/lib/audacious/Output/.

I think it is a remainder of an older version that was not removed? There is
no icecast.so plugin in the pkg-plist of the current audacious-plugins port.

In my experience building Audacious tends to fail or produce incorrect results
when you are building it with a previous version installed. Therefore I tend
to remove Audacious and its plugins before installing the new version. Maybe
that helps?

Well, it's working now, following Oliver's advice so it's all good. The 
thing was, I'd never had an issue updating it before while it was 
installed, so it threw me for a loop. I have a note in my system

Hi,

I think VLC removed support for Webcams. Only video streaming devices and DVB-
X devices are supported.

Flickering pictures might be due to lack of buffering in webcamd.

Could you dump the config descriptor with usbconfig for your device?

Which version of webcamd are you using?

--HPS




That's interesting with VLC, googling around seems to suggest it works
with V4L2

webcamd startup problems

2011-03-17 Thread Jimmie James
Hope someone can see what I missed here, as the topic says, webcamd 
doesn't start at boot.


Logitec USB cameram product 0x08b2 vendor 0x046d,  is plugged in, works 
wonderfully in skype-2.0.0.72,1, emesene-1.6.3, pwcview, etc..


grep webc /etc/rc.conf
webcamd_enable=YES

-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  775 Mar  8 19:35 /usr/local/etc/rc.d/webcamd

grep cuse /boot/loader.conf
cuse4bsd_load=YES

The camera doesn't show up when I boot the system, webcamd doesn't 
start. I have to run webcamd  to start it, and it happily prints out,

Attached ugen2.2[0] to cuse unit 0

So, my question is, why isn't this starting at boot?

It would appear there was some python 2.6 cruft left floating around, 
rebuilding gstreamer and related ports fixed this.

It is a MIPS-based subnotebook shipping with gNewSense (Linux distro). I don't

GNU/Linux NIS tweaks was: FreeBSD Decision

2011-01-15 Thread James Phillips

 Hello,
 
 I'd be curious to hear about any particular tweaking you

It may have to do with what you are doing. At the NFS protocol level, they are 
compatible as far as I can tell. However, in my testing (trying to set up a 
file server in a heterogeneous environment) I had problems configuring NIS 
without editing Makefiles.

GNU/Linux uses 'shadow' to store password and FreeBSD used master.passwd. The 
number of fields between the two differ as well.
From my notes, the options are:
1. Modify makefile to generate a shadow file to keep Linux happy
2. use UNSECURE=true option in /var/yp/Makefile and disable shadow passwords 
in Linux. I decided to go with the second option because NFS uses host-based 
authentication: somebody with root access to a client machine can get both 
files anyway.

Because NFS passes ownership and group information by number, I decided I 
needed I need to use NIS to set send user and group information to keep the 
network sane. For example, james may be user 1001 on one machine and user 
1002 on another. The problem is that the FreeBSD special groups are not 
compatible with the GNU/Linux special groups (less than 1000). 

I resolved this (after an hint from IRC) by editing /var/yp/Makefile to only 
send user groups in a certain window to the client machines.
From my notes:
-both group.byname and group.bygid have the same filter to decide which groups 
to include:[
@$(AWK) -F: '{ if ($$1 != 
   $$1 !~^#.*  $$1 !=+) \
]

Decodes as:
Use 'awk' with a field  separator of ':'
Include a line if:
-it is not blank
-if it is not a commented line, denoted by '#'
-if it is not a line importing groups from NIS, denoted by '+' in the first 
field.

filter can be modified to include only gid's within a certain range: [
@$(AWK) -F: '{ if ($$1 != 
   $$1 !~^#.*  $$1 !=+ 
   $$3 = 1001  $$3 =2000) \
]
/notes

Regards,

James Phillips

I actually was able to log in from a test installation of Debian using that 
hack (files appeared on server as expected). It took some trial and error 
though.

PS: perhaps my difficulty is I don't really want to do programming until the 
fileserver is up, but BSD administrators are expected to do basic scripting.

 Hi list, I don't want make a flame post but I would ask an
 objective 
 opinion, then not a camp opinion, about using FreeBSD or
 Debian Linux in 
 a production environment for solution as such as cluster of
 some 

 Mail Server (qmail), raid software, security support and
 hardware 
 support. 

I prefer Debian and lurk on the list because I want to use FreeBSD for my 
fileserver (which has been a multi-year project, still not in production). I 
originally chose BSD for security, but have decided to stick with it to 
benefit from learning a slightly different way of doing things.

The main flame-worthy difference between the two is licensing: Linux uses the 
GPL, FreeBSD uses a simplified BSD license. You can probably find flame-wars 
about it on the Internet yourself :)

The culture between the two groups is also a little different. Debian actually 
has an IRC channel where users are encouraged to ask questions (#debian on 
irc.freenode.net). Here, they prefer you use this mailing list. The difference 
may be that Debian has a larger community that can support an IRC channel.

The way packages get installed is different as well. Under Debian you are asked 
a series a questions (with user-settable verbosity), and many services are set 
up as automatically as is possible given your answers. Under BSD, services are 
installed disabled by default. This is annoying, but good for security. In 
theory you shouldn't be able to get it working unless you know what you are 
doing.

One thing to keep in mind is that BSD speaks a different POSIX dialect than 
most Linux distros (though that is likely true between Linux distros as well). 
This means things like NFS/NIS won't work without tweaking. One thing I also 
ran into is that md5sum (Debian) ~= md5 (BSD). I suppose you are supposed to 
use SHA2 these days anyway :P

James Phillips

portsclean -CDD oddness

2010-11-03 Thread Jimmie James

After doing a portupgrade, I've always run portsclean -CDD
[for reference]
-C Clean out all the working directories of the ports tree. (cf. 
WRKDIRPREFIX)
-D Clean out all the distfiles that are not referenced by any port in 
the ports tree.  Specified twice (i.e.  -DD), clean out all the 
distfiles that are not referenced by any port that is currently 
installed. (cf.  DISTDIR)


This time, fresh csup and a few ports updated, it wiped out EVERY 
distfile for reasons I don't understand. Anyone have a clue as to why, 
or what the frak is going on?


Now I know it's not a huge deal, unless there's a bug somewhere, 
nothing's changed in my /etc/make.conf or my pkgtools.conf in... about 6 
months.

Re: ssh under attack - sessions in accepted state hogging CPU

2010-08-09 Thread James Harrison
Hi Matt,
 
 I know there's not much I can do about the brute force attacks, but will 
 upgrading openssh avoid these stuck connections?


1. switch over to using solely RSA keys
2. switch to a non-standard port
3. what version of openssh are you currently using?

Best

Subject: /boot is full after running make installkernel on FreeBSD 8.0

Hi folks,
I'm running FreeBSD 8.0, and I'm trying to simple stay current with
all security patches. It's a clean install of FreeBSD 8.0 on a 50G
drive, and I let sysinstall select the default partition configuration
when I did the install.

I've taken the following steps:


# csup -4 /etc/stable-supfile
# cd /usr/src
# make buildworld
# make buildkernel
# make installkernel

After the make installkernel command, the / partition shows 106%
capacity (and it started as 500M).

Here's my before and after running make installkernel

Before:

Filesystem SizeUsed   Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/da0s1a496M253M203M55%/
devfs  1.0K1.0K  0B   100%/dev
/dev/da0s1e496M 12K456M 0%/tmp
/dev/da0s1f 44G3.0G 37G 8%/usr
/dev/da0s1d1.9G 10M1.8G 1%/var

After:

Filesystem SizeUsed   Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/da0s1a496M485M-29M   106%/
devfs  1.0K1.0K  0B   100%/dev

/dev/da0s1f 44G3.0G 37G 8%/usr
/dev/da0s1d1.9G 10M1.8G 1%/var

# cd /
# du -h -d2 | grep M

2.0K./tmp/.XIM-unix
 33M./usr/bin

233M ./boot/kernel
233M ./boot/kernel.old
466M ./boot
7.4M./lib
4.3M./rescue
4.4M./sbin

It looks like the both kernels are eating up the entire /

Right?

What am I doing wrong? The isn't normal, is it?

Thank you,
Ed

I don't really like Oo.org either. It is a little better than MS-Office, be 
seems to follow the same general design philosophy.

 
 I wish I'd find a foolproof, simple, transparent way for me
 to see and
 edit well-formatted plain text no matter what nonsense
 bloated featuritis
 infected office suite anyone else wanted to use.

Well, I heard RTF is useful for interoperability between MS word versions, but 
I am not sure how well interoperability between different vendors works in 
practice.
The Wikipedia page says RTF is a proprietary standard:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rich_Text_Format

You may also want to use an SGML variant like HTML or XML, but those can be 
tedious to manually edit. For quick messages, Plain ASCII text is much better 
unless you need a different character set. In that case, Unicode text will 
probably work.

In your first message you said that The Sony TV was DTLA compliant. Because you 
specifically mentioned it, I assumed you knew what that meant. Your streaming 
server *will not* be DTLA compliant unless you are running Windows media center 
edition or something.

I did not want to bring it up, because there was no evidence that your problem 
was DRM related.
 

SNIP!
 Okies well so far I have tried mediatomb, the TV sees the
 server but
 gives the same message as with ushare this server does not

 useful if it said what it didn't support but there we go. I
 will look at

The server does not support Digital Transmission Content Protection:

In essence, you are supposed to encrypt the video stream lest you copy it.

I am a little surprised the TV would refuse to work with an unencrypted stream, 
which is why I did not respond to your first post.

Sorry, DRM is an alphabet soup of Standards and industry consortia. I was 
unaware of DLNA and read it as: DTLA. However, if you look at the Overview and 
Vision White Paper, you will see that DTCP/IP (administered by DTLA) is 
required for the link layer of DLNA:
http://www.dlna.org/about_us/roadmap/DLNA_Whitepaper.pdf
- page 4, Table 1

 Hi James
 
 I said the TV was DLNA compliant, those links at the brief
 look I had appears to be the sort of encryption you would
 see on a HD signal via HDMI that would prevent you say
 recording HD content to your PVR device and then playing it
 back to a blu-ray recorder and recording it to disc. I had

I get the impression that DTCP is an umbrella DRM standard that that allows 
the other DRM standards to inter-operate. DTCP is administered by the Digital 
Transmission Licensing Administrator: a consortium of five companies including 
Hitachi, Intel, Panasonic, Sony, and Toshiba.

HDMI uses another scheme called High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection 
(HDCP) for encrypting the video.
http://www.digital-cp.com/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-bandwidth_Digital_Content_Protection

DTCP will likely intervene in the step where you move the video from the PVR to 
the Blu-ray recorder.

When it comes time to record the information on the disk, a third scheme comes 
into play: Advanced Access Content System (AACS)
http://www.aacsla.com/home
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Access_Content_System
The Wikipedia page appears to be more readable.

 done a fair bit of googling on this before posting to the
 list, it seems Sonys' implementation of DLNA is a bit
 loose shall we say, I have seen a lot of people having
 issues with DLNA complaint NAS devices not working with Sony
 TV`s. As I have stated in a previous post it does work with
 wmp12, but it is not elegant or the solution I want for the
 reasons I stated earlier.

I would expect wmp12 to work because Windows Vista and 7 implement DTCP, and 
Microsoft is listed as one of the sponsors of DLNA.

James Phillips

PS: my brain hurts reading that too :(
