Cleaning up after attack?
Hi. I have an up-to-date FreeBSD 7.2 box that has been compromised. Someone aparently got in to an account with certain admin priveleges and has been sending spam. I disabled the account, shut off my MTA and used pf to block all traffic to port 25 out for good measure. How do i analyse what might have happened and what has been installed? Andis there anything to do other than rebuild the entire system to ensure that its clean? Thanks.

Perl 5.10?
Its now just over a year since Perl 5.10.0 was relased, but its still not in FreeBSD. (/usr/ports/lang only has 5.8). Can someone tell me why? Is there any way to get it working stably? Is there any schedule for when it will be added? This is a major release of a major language, not an obscure maintenence update.

Copying system/ports configuration?
I have a FreeBSD 7.0 system that im using in production. I want to create a FreeBSD virtual machine, to use as a testbed for this production box. The last time i did this it took a lot of time to get the VM set up--installing all the right ports, getting the database configuration right, etc. Are there any shortcuts for this, e.g. a way i can automatically install the same ports on the new machine? I didnt see anything in the handbook or FAQ about this, but id think that people need to do this all the time. Any other advice for mirroring the system? Thanks!

Upgrading 4.x install without doing clean reinstall?
I have a server that was running Free BSD 4.7 for a number of years. I DO NOT have easy physical access to it, its in a datacenter and i cant get to it myself or at this point rely on anyone there to put in a new install disk or anything. Ive replaced this server with a new one for production use, running 7.0, so now that this one is no longer live, id like to update it to 7.x so i can continue to use it as a dev box. However since i dont have direct access to it, i need to update it cleanly, so that it doesnt fall off the net or otherwise stop working during the process. Is there any clean way of doing this? If I have to upgrade to 5.x, then 6.x, then 7.x it will take forever and probably break something in the process. Can i make the jump directly, still keeping everything working? Thanks!

Re: libcdio upgrade problems
Thank you :-) Unfortunatly I took someone elses advice and upgraded to 7.0, which created it's own problem :-( But the libcdio thing did get fixed, at least!

Upgrading problem: confused dependencies
Im sorry to repeat a thread from last week, but ive been trying ever since to upgrade a port and havent been able to. If someone can make another suggestion, i would be very very greatful. As i said in the libcdio upgrade problems thread, i have installed the libcdio port, but when other ports try to build, they fail, telling me that libcdio is already installed and i need to make deinstall and make reinstall of it. I did this, but got the same message. Ive tried every variant, and would be happy to try brute force versions too. I deinstalled it and let the other port try to install it, i deinstalled all related ports so things could try again from scratch, i set the environment variables about forcing package registration, whatever i could. The ports tree is up to date. Id install libcdio as a package, but its not new enough. Something must be corrupted somewhere and i want to fix it, manually if necessary, but i just dont know what to do. Thanks again and sorry for the new thread, but Im running out of options.

Re: Upgrading problem: confused dependencies
Sorry, this was all discussed in the original thread. The port is the sysutils/libcdio port. I use portupgrade to keep things up to date. This machine is running FreeBSD nbsp;6.2-RELEASE. In this case libcdio itself upgrades correctly, but other ports (for example devel/gvfs), when i try to update them, report that libcdio is already installed and i need to make deinstall and then make reinstall of libcdio. I can do this, and it works, but then rerunning portupgrade on gvfs reports the same thing about libcdio. If just do a make deinstall of libcdio and run portupgrade on gvfs, then gvfs will sucessfully install libcdio but when it gets back to gvfs, reports the same make deinstall/make reinstall thing. In general it seems that no matter what i do, other ports wont see libcdio as being correctly installed at the current version, and im looking for a way to solve this. Thanks.

Re: libcdio upgrade problems

I've run into similar experiences with other ports, and what I have done to get it to work is to deinstall the complaining port (in this instance libcdio), and let the original port install it as a dependency instead of doing a make reinstall. -- Im afraid this didnt work either--whether libcdio is installed or not (and installing it seems to work fine), any other port that requires it tells me that it is installed and need to be make deinstalled and make reinstalled. Yet this doesnt work. Is there any other brute-force way to get around this? This is getting difficult. Thanks again, everyone.

Using flags with portinstall of apache?
Hi, Im having trouble doing a simple Apache22 install. I first installed it just using portinstall apache. Then i saw that i needed to specify flags during hte process, to get the modules i wan't, but i cant figure out how to do it. I first did a pkg_delete of apache to start over from scratch. Then i tried to add the flags i wanted: # portinstall -m WITH_PROXY_MODULES=yes WITH_SSL_MODULES=yes apache But this didnt work--it didnt build the proxy modules. I tried again putting those flags in /etc/make.conf but its STILL not building the proxy modules. How am I supposted to do this?!? Thanks.

What provides libfontconfig.la?
Hi, I recently upgraded my system from FreeBSD 6.0 to 6.3. But Im having trouble with some ports that are unable to find /usr/X11R6/lib/libfontconfig.la. Where does this come from, so i can (re)install it? I couldnt find this by Googling I did try to force reinstall xorg, but that didnt work. Thanks! Jen - Never miss a thing.

Starting MySQL with different database directory
I hope this is the right place--i looked over the MySQL docs but they talk about a different startup practice than what FreeBSD uses. I have a new install of MySQL 5.1 on a FreeBSD 6.2 system. I want to have my MySQL data directory in a place other than /var/db/mysql. I thought i do this by copying the appropriate my.cnf into /etc/my.conf and adding a line like datadir = /usr/local/mysql/var/ and making it readable to mysql user. But this doesnt work; when i restart MySQL its still using /var/db/mysql. So i looked at the mysql-server startup script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d and added to rc.conf mysql_dbdir=/usr/local/mysql/var. (I DON'T want to do it this way, because i really want my MySQL related configuration things in my MySQL configuration file, not split between there and my FreeBSD startup file. What if i need to start mysql in some other way? But for now im just trying to see what i can get to work.) This seemed to change something--mysqld had been running when i made this change and when I ran mysql-server stop it couldnt stop, because it was looking in /usr/local/mysql/var/foo.pid--i think this means it did register the change to the new directory. But i couldnt then start it, because when I run mysql-server start i get a Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' error. What's the right way to do this? Again id really prefer to do this all through the my.cnf file, but this seems not to be getting read, at least for this reason. Thank you. Jen - Food fight? Enjoy some healthy debate in the Yahoo!

But when i do that i cant start the server. (And as i said i also would like to have this in my MySQL configuration file, not in a FreeBSD configuration file.) Also, replying to a separate email from Roger Olofsson about just symlinking /var/db/mysql to somewhere else: sure, i can do that, and i once had to do that quickly when i accidently filled up my /var partition :-(. But here i have a new install and i KNOW i want the data directory to go somwhere else, so id like to do it by specifying it in the conf file and not by symlinking which has always felt like a kluge to me.

Various package/ports problems
Hi, I inherited a FreeBSD 4.8 box that had a lot of out of date ports on it. in trying to fix some of this, i seem to have screwed up the package or ports system in a way i cant manage to fix. For example if i try to run portversion i get: undefined method `each' for nil:NilClass /usr/local/sbin/portversion:239: [BUG] Bus Error from Ruby (ruby 1.8.5 is up to date on the system). If i try to run pkg_info I quickly get: pkg_info: read_plist: bad command '@conflicts apache+ipv6-1.*' (i googled for similar problems and there were a few other reports of this, with other packages, but no suggestion of how to fix them.) If i try to rebuild my ports index, I get gnopernicus-0.12.0: /usr/ports/accessibility/gnome-speech non-existent -- dependency list incomplete and nothing will go further. How can i get all of this sorted? i was really hoping to be able to update most of this sytem but now i cant even get started to find out what needs it :-( Jen - All-new Yahoo!

That is really quite an old version of FSBD. If possible, I think you would be well served by updating to the latest version - 6.1 - if possible. I may be wrong, but I do not believe that there is a lot of support for that version anymore. I wish i could, but i dont have physical access to the machine - its in a remote location with no serial console. So if anything gets messed up during an upgrade, im in a hell of a lot of trouble. I dont know when i'll be able to fix this problem so until i can upgrade the OS i at least want to keep the rest of it up to date. Jen. - Do you Yahoo!? Everyone is raving about the all-new Yahoo!

FreeBSD and aquiring proper drivers
Is there any way to obtain driver code from FreeBSD regarding Dell systems, or would I have to ask certain vendors if they would/could write the code? Is there someone who could recommend me to even a consulting firm about this?

FreeBSD using Dell systems
Would you have any information on using and loading FreeBSD on a Dell PowerEdge 2850 or 850? Any information would be of great help. Thank you for your time.

FireFox not starting in 6.0
i finally am getting started with 6.0, after a lot of time of installation. Most things are going well but the wierdest problem: i cant get FireFox to start! It built fine, no errors, but it just doesnt start. There arent really anymore details i can give. It doesnt matter if I click the FF icon in Gnome, or type 'firefox' on the commandline. (There's no output from doing that: $ firefox $ so no errors or anything.) What to do? Epiphany works fine and Opera does too but i like FireFox. Thanks. Jen __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Re: Instructions for upgrading?
Dr. Jennifer Nussbaum wrote: where can i find simple instructions for upgrading to a new major version? In addition to the advice given earlier, you might read Bruce Mah's Migration Guide. The 5.3 version is here: http://people.freebsd.org/~bmah/relnotes/5.3-RELEASE/early-adopter.html and might be quite applicable to the 4.x 5.x migration, as 5.3 was the first -STABLE release in the 5.X branch, and many users were expected to move to it from 4.11, etc. thanks for this! i looked att his pretty closely and thought i did everything right but did run into trouble in the end. something went wrong at installworld, i guess with the 4.x compatability layer, and now im not sure what to do to get things fixed. when i boot into the singleuser shell, even simple commands i gett hings like /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object libncurses.so.5 not found, required by more. i can use basic commands like ls and cat but not even slightly hard things like more or vi. at this point i would be willing to save my /usr directory and just try to find a cd drive to do a clean install, but im not sure how to save it. i did do a backup of my most important things but if the install is going completely wrong i guess id like to save everything. my files in /usr are all still there but i dont know if i can hook up to the network or save to an attached cd, seeing how many commands i cant run. thanks! next time i just stay with 4.10, or do a better backup!

Instructions for upgrading?
where can i find simple instructions for upgrading to a new major version? im running 4.10 right now and want to change to 6.0--why not? heh--but the installation page in the handbook just talks about doing it from scratch. and the entire upgrade' section of the 6.0 release notes just says Source upgrades to FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE are only supported from FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE or later. Users of older systems wanting to upgrade 6.0-RELEASE will need to update to FreeBSD 5.3 or newer first, then to FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE. Important: Upgrading FreeBSD should, of course, only be attempted after backing up all data and configuration files. but doesnt say how to really do it. same with the 5.x release notes. im willing to do this in two step, from 4.10 to 5.4 and then to 6.0, if that is neccessary. my laptop doesnt have a CD drive of a floppy drive, so i want to do it over the network but i need simple instructions if someone can help. thank you! jen __ Yahoo!

freebsd boot and fsck problem
Dear FreeBSD people I started to learn and used FreeBSD from last year. And I found FreeBSD is really very powerful and lovely. But I am also a little scared of it, for then it has problem, I just do not know how to fix it. Here I came up a big emergent problem this morning, and I wish you can give me your precious advice and help. I have been using a script drivecopy.sh for a couple of months to do full backup once a week. This drivecopy.sh is a small scripts to copy whole IDE HDD (of freeBSD) to another HDD. Please have a look at the attached script drivecopy.sh It worked very fine till yesterday. Last night, As usual,I started ./drivecopy.sh to backup my FreeBSD4.3 server (Disk1) on another HDD(Disk2). Disk2 has been used successfully as backup for more than 10 times with same procedure of ./drivecopy.sh. So it seemed the start up going smoothly, then I left the server room. This morning, when I came to check the server and backup. (which was supposed to have finished). And I surprised to find all those horrible error messages on the console screen: ***start to quote error message ad0s2e: had error reading fsbn 97103692 of 3473456-3473467(ad0s2 bn 97103692; cn 6044 fn 108 sn 28) status=59 error=40 cannot read: BLK 3473456 UNEXPECTED SOFT UPDATE INCONSISTENCY. **end of error message quote So I had to force to suspend the backup process by pressing Ctrl+Z. Then I tried to reboot Disk1. I had problem during the booting process. **start to quote error message chflags: not found chown: not found cd: can't cd to /var/run cd: can't cd to /var/spool/lock /etc/rc: cann't create /var/run/dmesg.boot directory nonexistent cd: can't cd to /var/run /etc/rc: cannot ceate /var/run/clean_var:dirctory nonexitent. Enter full path of shell or return for /bin/sh . **end of error message quote Then I just press Enter and came to the single boot mode. I typed the following command to try to munually fsck the problem partition. #fsck /dev/ad0s2e The console then showed the following message. **/dev/ad0s2e **Last mounted on /www **Phase 1 -check block size cannot read: BLK 19596336 UNEXPECTED SOFT UPDATE INCONSISTENCY continue [y/n] ... Looks like the manual fsck doesn't working here. Then I tried my luck to boot Disk2.Unfortunately, it showed the same errors as Disk2 during booting. Your advice will be highly appreciated. Jennifer P.S. The attached is my drivecopy.sh,which had worked fine for the previous backup processes except yesterday. So I do not think anything wrong with the drivecopy.sh itself. There must be something wrong with my yesterday's backup process, though I can not find out what it is. drivecopy.sh Description: Binary data ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
