Switching username using SFTP
When I ssh into a system which has different login name from the system I'm on I use this syntax: ssh -l host.domain.com. How does one do this with SFTP on the command line? The -l switch doesn't work. The man pages on SFTP makes no mention of this. -- Joe _ Put your friends on the big screen with Windows Vista® + Windows Live™. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/shop/specialoffers.mspx?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_CPC_MediaCtr_bigscreen_012008___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

IPV6 NTP
I am running FreeBSD 6.2 in a totally IPV6-only aware environment. I want to set up an NTP server by pointing to an IPV6 stratum 1 address. Can I just add an IPV6 address in the NTP.conf file just as I would do for an IPV4 server? -- Joe _ You keep typing, we keep giving.

FreeBSD time servers and Windows clients
Hi all, I have one FreeBSD NTP server which syncs all my server clocks. Getting the NTP server running was a piece of cake following the instructions in the online handbook. Recently I was asked to sync a bunch of windows machines (10 of them) to my NTP server. Now I'm not a windows person, so I asked one of the windows people to figure out his side since my side was up and running. He wrote this little .bat file to run on the windows boxes to be sync'd. Its pretty straight forwardjust save it as a .bat file (time.bat) and run it from your XP box. Make sure to enter your NTP IP address where the x's are below. It seems to work fine for us. Your mileage may vary. There may be better/easier ways of doing this, but this is what works ok for us Here's the .bat fileuse it at your own risk --- @echo Updating Time Service @echo. @echo. @echo off w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,0x8 /syncfromflags:manual w32tm /config /update @echo Restarting Time Service @echo. @echo. net stop w32time net start w32time pause cls @echo Verify your Time Server's IP Address and SNTP Flag of 0x8 @echo. net time /querysntp @echo. @echo Exiting configuration pause -- -- Joe _ News, entertainment and everything you care about at Live.com.
