Re: Security question (simple).
I wonder if the better policy is to not run inherently insecure applications to begin with. In theory if no-one can get to that box or make use of that application from the internet then your only threats become internal ones. Just for curiosity sake what does nmap tell you about your box/interface from an outside perspective ? Another great check is sockstat -4 which will list the services running and the IP/port number there running on.

Re: How to get the software
hey Pal, check out the website they have the full list of mirrors for downloading FreeBSD. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mirrors-ftp.html is the best place to start your search. You want to have in the back of your mind also that there are quite a few different branches of the software so let me answer your next question which would be " Which version do I want?" For most intents and purposes you will want FreeBSD4.8-Release. This is the newest release of the more stable 4.x branch. There is a 5.x branch but if you are new to FreeBSD and indeed new to *nix software and environments then 4.8 will bring you a much more stable and simplified experience. Having said all of that the choice is entirely up to you. Another recommendation is that you purchase a copy of the Handbook by Greg Lehey. It will come with a copy of the CD as well as a pretty comprehensive guide to getting yourself up and running with all the basics. Again the decision to purchase is up to you. here is a place to look for that http://www.bsdmall.com/freebsd1.html happy hacking LK - Original Message - From: "angger" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Sent: 2003年7月31日 18:58 Subject: How to get the software Hello Hi all of the freeBSD team, I'm from Indonesia, and I'm interest with the software, if it is a free software then where I can get it?? and download it, globaly I'm still learn the basic of the system, may I know the address to download FreeBSD software.

PPPoE load balancing
Hello, Let me apologise firstly if this is a topic which has been thrashed to death on this list. I need some advice before I get myself into a hole that is very deep, dark and lonely. I need to add an additional DSL line to my exisiting network to keep up with the expanding bandwidth requirements of the users. In a situation like this my first reaction would be to get some fibre into the office and take it from there but the building we are currently in is unsuitable for fibre ( according to the provider ) therefore for the interim I have no choice but to get additional DSL circuits. My question is how difficult is it to get one FBSD router to reliably manage multiple DSL circuits. These circuits would have static IP addresses probably /28 on the outside and there are two distinct networks internally. An ethernet segment and a wireless segment. I am using IPFilter and IPNat to provide simple NAT functions and simple firewalling functions. If I create further external links ie tun0 and tun1 will this create problems for NAT ? I am contemplating separating the two internal networks so that the ethernet segment gets routed to tun0 and wireless to tun1. Would I need two instances of IPNat and IPFilter or can I wrap all the rules into one instance of these tools ? Is there a smarter way to do this ? Any advice is appreciated as I suspect that this is not a trivial thing to accomplish reliably and given no other real options at this time I have to come up with a solution that is reliable. Ideally it would be great to be able to get load balancing and failover working but I won't push my luck.

Re: PPPoE load balancing
Thanks for that, you are of course absolutely correct however here in Japan the provider of the local loops does not provide T3's and all circuits over 128K are fibre. So I am stuck. This solution only has to hold together for about 6mths then we move offices and I can get a proper fibre connection but until then I need a band aid solution.

IPFilter and PPTP
Hi, I have a small question relating to IPFilter. I have started using this on my firewall and the users need to establish PPTP connections to a different office to collect their mail and use certain applications remotely. I have managed to get it working on a one to one mapping basis but the concept I am aiming for is dynamic NAT of all the private addresses in to one single address but this requires some fancy rules that I cannot get worked out. The network looks something like this TUN0 a.b.c.d/29 ___|_ |FBSD|rl1 ||-- wireless segment 10.0.0.2/24 |rl2 | ethernet segment 10.0.0.5/24 Now each of the internal interfaces use DHCP to assign addresses to client and I want to map each internal interface to an external IP ie rdr tun0 a.b.c.d/32 - 10.0.0.5/24 rdr tun0 a.b.c.e/32 - 10.0.0.2/24 The remote VPN server appears to be a MS box. I would prefer not to use static IP assignments as whilst there are only a couple of users now there are more on their way and dynamic is the way I would prefer to manage this in the long run. Any advice people can offer would be really appreciated.

Re: Doh ! Installed FBSD5.0 and no more dual boot
OK thanks for the offer of assistance. The machine in question has two drives ad0 and ad1. On ad0 there was a native NTFS partition with Win2K installed. On a separate partion I had Redhat. I decided to get rid of the redhat installation and use FreeBSD again. So I installed FreeBSD-5.0Release. It had its way with the MBR and now Win2K cannot boot. I cannot use the recovery option because I cannot for the life of me remember the admin passwd. So I installed GAG. GAG detects all installed OS's but when trying to boot to Win2K it gives the same error ie NTLDR is missing press Ctrl+Alt+Del to reboot. Grub gave the same errors even though it also detected the installation. I thought to be a bit creative and revert to a RedHat install to recover the MBR but it complains about incorrectly aligned partitions or some such. The disk is not hosed but the MBR is not healthy. The bios is fine I have been changing that to boot from CD/Floppy/HDD when necessary. Any additional light you can shed on this would be appreciated.

You can automatically repair or manually "fix" the master boot record and boot sector, which will cause the computer to boot Win2K again.
