I noticed FreeBSD was not accessable this morning.
svnup gives me the following.
 svnup stable
svnup: connect failure: Connection refused

earlier i could not even open www.freebsd.org, so something is or was 
not right.

Now www.freebsd.org works again

Gain Organic Traffic: Freebsd.Org :PS

2013-04-30 Thread Jorge Conner
Hi  Freebsd Team,

Hope you are doing fine.

I thought you might like to know some of the reasons why you are not
getting enough organic traffic  most often you stick to Ad words to get
more traffic which is quite expensive and the chances is high of getting a
spam traffic as well.

Let me tell you that your website still does not organically rank on major
search engine’s first page for most of the popular keywords, which means
people searching for your products are not able to find your website and
you are losing traffic.

Some of the major factors which can be overcome for your website to rank
well in SERP organically and increase your social media presence are:

1.   Seems like your website carries a lot of technical errors which
prevents search engine to crawl and index your website properly.

2.   Your website needs a proper keyword selection and optimization.

3.   Your website is not well furnished with enough quality and theme
based back links.

4.   Your website should be more inclined towards Social media
promotion and a regular updates in major social networks.

5.   Missing quality web and promotion contents (Article, Blogs etc.)
which is preventing your website to gain more authority and ranking in Web
Market.

In the present day scenario it’s very essential to take a proper care of
your website and keep it updated with fresh and original contents. There
are many additional improvements which can help your website to gain more
traffic and visibility. If you are interested to learn more and curious to
know how we can help you to improve your website to get a higher traffic,

That message isn't in RELENG_9, so I can't give you details. It's
probably resizing a dummynet queue, so it's likely to be in one of the c
files in /usr/src/sys/netpfil/ipfw/. Removing the print statment is
*probably* safe, but will leave you with less information if something
actually goes wrong with allocating buckets the next time you add a new
queue. 

Or you could update to something more recent, where that specific
message isn't present at all.

p class=MsoNormalHi Freebsd.Org Team,br
br
I thought you might like to know some of the reasons why you are not getting
enough organic amp; social media traffic on your website.br
br
I would like to update you that your website is still not ranked on the top
pages of Google SERPs for your popular keywords (Products). Your loss is  
your
competitor’s gain i.e. the traffic which could have generated quality sales  
for

you goes to your competitors as they rank well in the Search Engine Result
Pages (SERPs) organically.br

bReasons: /bbr
br
1.    HTML and other on-page errors are present on your website.br

keyword

website to be penalized by Google.br

Hm, if they wanted to keep RELENG_9 as stable 9.X branch, why then 
9.1-PRERELEASE is there? Is PRERELEASE considered more stable than RC?

This is because of the release process. At some point (beta) the
stable branch (RELENG_9 here) is named -PRERELEASE. After (for
release candidate) a new branch (RELENG_9_1) is created and named
9.1-XXX. This branch will be the 9.1 release and changes should be only
bug fixes. RELENG_9 continues its own way.

So yes, RELENG_9 should be named 9-STABLE. That will be fixed after
the release. I guess nobody takes the time to change the name or they
are too busy with the release of 9.1.

  Let us securely erase your personal files and pictures for only $49.99.
 and securely copy everything interesting before.

 That's truly funny. Someone DO CARE about his/her data being deleted, 
 and... lets someone else in random shop to do this.

And exactly what alternatives _do_ you see for someone who DOES NOT HAVE
THE SKILLS, TOOLS, OR RESOURCES, to 'do it themselves'?

That's a serious question, not an attack.

If someone wants it done, but doesn't have the knowledge/tools/etc. to
do it themselves, it appears to me that they have precisely two realistic
alternatives:
   1) Trust somebody to do it, and do it right,
or
   2) simpl DON'T do it.

Putting together what is required to do it yourself _is_ out of the
question for _most_ Windows users.   They don't know _what_ they need to
know/learn/have to do the task. Heck they don't know how to find out *what*
they need to find out, to learn what is needed to do the task.

Yes, in theory, they _could_ learn everything they need to know to do it
themselves, but the list of things that a 'know nothing' Windows user has
to dig out, understand, and _use_, is incredibly long and daunting.

I know plenty of dumber than dirt *.nix users too. Stupidity is not
limited to race, color, sex or operating system. Actually, they are
smart enough to get themselves an OS that actually works with virtually
all modern hardware and without having to spend countless [hours | days
| weeks] attempting to getting such hardware up and running before
eventually giving up in some cases. You might have heard about N
protocol wireless devices that until fairly recently FreeBSD didn't even
know existed. Even now the support is limited; however, that is another
story.

In any case, that is not the subject of this this reply. I have found
HDDerase.exe http://cmrr.ucsd.edu/people/Hughes/SecureErase.shtml
to be a useful and in the most important criteria to the FOSS crowd,
free.

Seriously though, isn't it about time to close this thread?

Do you have any further details? What are you using for DNS servers,

Actually, around the same time others were reporting another site (not
fbsd, which I could access easily) was broken. So maybe a dark cloud

No -- you were not imagining things.  The DNS for freebsd.org was
temporarily broken.  It was that most impossible to remove of causes:

cvsup10.freebsd.org seems broken

2012-02-05 Thread Brian Behlendorf


Updating ports via cvsup against cvsup10.freebsd.org has shown no new 
files for at least a few days, if not longer (can't remember when I last 
attempted, but not more than a few weeks).  I switched to cvsup4 (which 
was just as close) and got a bunch of new updates.  Someone may want to 
check this out.

freebsd.org maillist mx discard policy

2010-08-19 Thread Jeff Laine

Hello list,

My question is regarding official maillist smtp servers. I'm trying to 
subscribe on security-notifications, but (for some reasons) our 
outgoing MX has no PTR record and mx1.freebsd.org rejects my message:



Reporting-MTA: dns; xxx
Arrival-Date: Mon, 16 Aug 2010 17:18:39 +0400 (MSD)

Final-Recipient: RFC822; 
freebsd-security-notifications-requ...@freebsd.org

Action: delayed
Status: 4.7.1
Remote-MTA: DNS; mx1.freebsd.org
Diagnostic-Code: SMTP; 450 4.7.1 Client host rejected: cannot find 
your hostname, [x.x.x.x]

Last-Attempt-Date: Mon, 16 Aug 2010 21:24:36 +0400 (MSD)


I have the SPF record set up for our domain which designates our 
external IP as a valid sender address for the domain, but I still get 
rejected.


So, the question is: do the freebsd.org maillist servers follow SPF 
records or PTR record is mandatory?



TIA.

The PTR is mandatory.  The vast majority of SMTP senders without proper
PTR records are zombie machines spreading spam.  Anyone running a real
mail system should be capable of arranging for a correct PTR in the DNS
-- if they aren't then they have no business at the controls of a MTA.

As far as I know, the FreeBSD.org mailers don't pay much attention to
SPF -- generally the accepted practice seems to be to use SPF as part of
computing Spam scores, but not to make accept/reject decisions solely
based on SPF.

Cheers,

Matthew

It's a mismatch between the timestamps on the local cached distfiles and

 Well, well.  I took the message shown above to the effect that that
file didn't exist there at face value.  But the file was indeed there, so
I guess portmaster or something that portmaster runs can lie.  After manually
deleting the file per your suggestion, math/arpack installed just fine.
 Thank you very much!  math/octave is now compiling as I write this.

 ICANN requires registrars to verify the domain info once a year. I just
 went through this with GoDaddy. I think the registrars see this as an
 opportunity to market services. Different registrars bungle their
 marketing effort in different ways. GoDaddy sent me instructions on what
 to do in order to correct errors, but had absolutely nothing on how to
 proceed if the information was correct. So I viewed this as something
 they could take advantage of in order to get me to their site for a hard
 sell campaign.
 
 So how do you folks who comply with ICANN's requirement deal with this?
 http://blog.forret.com/2004/12/domain-registry-of-america-scam/ -- This
 organisation is now known as Domain Renewal Group, by the way.

What is described in the above URI looks very very similar to what I saw
when I first went to check up on the ICANN whois confirmation email I
received from GoDaddy. Initially they seemed to be touting their
new TDNAM service, which I gather is some form of bulk auction. GoDaddy
took over the domains from the RegisterFly debacle so they have a few
million domains to monetize. A perfect example of registrar gone bad.

At first I was alarmed - Why am I in some danger of losing my domains? is
what I thought. As I went deeper into it by examining my account, I
confirmed that I indeed had Auto Renew on, so it would just bill my
credit card even if I took no action. However, I tend to do it manually
just so I'm satisfied it's done. So in the end this was just a hard sell
for a new service they wanted to push, for which I have no use. There must
have been complaints because when I just went looking for what I saw a few
weeks ago it seems to have vanished.

 
 I'm quite interested in knowing; it might be tolerable if you've only
 one domain, but if you're a hosting provider and have 100?
 

I'm not qualified for this because these days I only carry two .com domains.
At work we are a large .org entity and we have an entire group of people
whose sole function is to deal with this. Relatively low down in the
hierarchy my DNS servers are only slaves to those higher up. It is a
function handled by others and is out of my hands.

But a scam is a scam and the first thing which needs to occur is recognizing
a scam when you see it. Most legitimate businesses recognize the need for
large scale management and more than likely market some form of service of
assistance. It's a matter of trade-off of the fees they charge versus
whether it is worth it to you time/money wise to pay for the service. For
something like this I would only consider a service of this type offerred
by the registrar I'm already dealing with. And even then, I'd double check
behind them as I had time.

Back in the day I worked 2 blocks from Network Solutions and had a friend
that worked there as a DBA. So I had the proverbial someone you know
insider access. He no longer works for them and moved to California some
years ago. But it goes to the point of the working relationship you
maintain with your registrar. I'm fairly cynical so I tend to believe large
companies only pay attention to large accounts and have a certain tendency
to ignore and forget to service the little guy. In that vein it's a YMMV,
depends on who represents you on the other end of the circuit.

Errors from mx2.freebsd.org

2007-08-04 Thread Marcel de Reuver

Hi,

I receive postings from several mailinglists on a Fedora Core release 4 server 
with Sendmail v8.13.6/8.13.6.  Only postings that come from mx2.freebsd.org 
give errors like:

collect: premature EOM: Connection reset by mx2.freebsd.org
collect: I/O error on connection from mx2.freebsd.org,

Postings via mx1.freebsd.org come in with no problem at all. Does someone knows 
what is going on?

I am not sure what is going on, either. Over the last few days, I have
seen similar behaviour on my F7 server running exim. The messages
eventually do make it out of the machine and get to me, just not usually

Doubt on the information provided in freebsd.org website.

2007-06-21 Thread V . SriSaiGanesh

Hi All,

I was going through the Architecture Handbook(Link:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/arch-handbook/boot-bios.html).
In this page they have mentioned following phrase The very last thing in
the POST is the INT 0x19 instruction. That instruction reads 512 bytes from
the first sector of boot device into the memory at address 0x7c00. AFAIK
INT0x19 is a reboot service. So I got confused. Can somebody clarify my
doubt on INT0x19 (reboot or bootstraping)

Thanks and Regards,
SaiGanesh

 it was only announced after the selection was over. freebsd users were
 not involved. this is not right. :-(

that is not true.
The intent to change the logo - or create one - was announced and a
contest for choosing a logo was announced and entries were solicited
well before the choice of logo was done.

 also, the other entries were not published. so we can't really compare.

That is true and I think that may have been a poor choice but it probably
would have resulted in even more noise on the lists rather than less.

 it seems like the whole thing was intended to be quiet and public was
 just left out of the process.

Not completely left out, but less involved than might be ideal.

I just wish the FreeBSD community had more ability to create meaningful
logos.   Their talents seem to all lie in the area of creating and
managing software systems...

By the way, here where I work,  they made a big fuss and came up with
a new 'logo' that we are required to have on our cards and such and
it is totally meaningless and unrelated to what our department is
or does.  It is, at least a little bit artsey and attractice, but
I think this logo problem is endemic in the field.

RE: New freebsd logo on freebsd.org

2006-05-10 Thread fbsd

As a long time reader of this list I did not see any
announcement of it here. Only after selection of the
new logo was made was it talked about on this list
People were very up set with it them and the ground
swell over this has only gotten bigger.

Loyal long time users are feeling insulted about being
left out from the decision about the need for a new logo.
A post in the archive give some lame reasons for a new logo
which many people disagreed with even then but still the
new legal FreeBSD foundation went ahead any how put it
on the official website.

I for one do not see an need to change the logo at all.

I would say special effort was made to keep this whole
new logo thing a secret from the general user population.

That also goes for the formation of the new legal FreeBSD
foundation.
Not a word of it happening on this list until it was a done deal.
You can see from this thread just how big a stink this is making.

Lets point the finger at the real reason for the new logo.
As part of the new legal FreeBSD foundation, the people who
set it up though it's better to own the complete rights
to the logo. So being pressed for time they choose to keep it
off the questions list and pushed it through selecting what
ever logo they had just to meet the filing dead line for
the new legal FreeBSD foundation formation.

For those of you who think this subject is flame bait,
YOU ARE WHY THIS NEW LOGO IDEA WAS EVEN ABLE TO GET OFF
THE GROUND IN THE FIRST PLACE.

Sham on you, shut your pie hole.


I want to know the email addresses of the people in control of
the new foundation and everyone on this list who does not like
the new logo  and/or the way in which it was forced upon us
should email them to voice our dissatisfaction directly to them.
Because its obvious posting on this list has no effect or value
in determining what happens to the legal FreeBSD organization
and thus the logo used to represent us.

If you want your voice in this matter to be effective you have
to email those in legal control of the FreeBSD foundation.
It's time they stop hiding and become accountable for
their collective actions.

However, where were the other designs?  I think a contest was
potentially a good idea, but my suspicion is that the entries were
rather poor, and the current logo was simply the best of a bad bunch?
It seems wierd that only commiters were given a vote - while I respect
their technical judement without quarrel, geeks don't seem to have the
same grasp on aesethetics as a design agency.

Take a look at the netbsd logo if you want to see how it's done.  It
means something.  It's neat.  It represents the project.  What we (the
users) seem to have ended up with is a fussy and unelegent logo that
has nothing to do with anythin, save for a pair of post-modern ice
cream cones harking back to beastie.

The simple fact is, when you look at the new logo it only makes sense
if you previously understand what it represents.  The effect is that
it represents nothing in particular, which is why it fails so
fantasically.  What are the key values of FreeBSD?  I'd guess
something like Freedom, Stability, Robustness, quality.  Those values
are not communicated in the new logo, and I think that's something
that somebody with freebsd.org in their email address should seriously
address.

My brother went to school for graphic arts.  When the contest was
announced, we spend _several_weeks_ brainstorming, he and I, trying
to come up with something that looked as cool as the NetBSD logo, while
representing FreeBSD.

We finally gave up without making a submission.  The problem is that
NetBSD (and OpenBSD as well, for that matter) somehow have more culture
to them on the graphic arts side.  NetBSD has long had the image of
daemons raising the flag (mirroring the WWII photograph) which
translated nicely into a logo.  OpenBSD has long had the Blowfish,
which can be rendered a number of interesting ways.

And FreeBSD has what?  The Beastie ... but the Beastie is *BSD in
general, so what else is there ... ?

You're exactly right.  Somebody other than you should take care of this.
This is everyone's fault but yours.  If you'd been in the loop from the
start, this never would have happened.  My goodness, why didn't we
consult you earlier ... you obviously have all the answers.

This is free software man, if you don't like it, fix it
yourself.  If you can't fix it, _ask_ someone else, or put up some
cash to pay someone who can.  But quit whining.

You are a Troll.  If you weren't a Troll, you'd have taken this to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of staying on this
list.

Go use Microsoft, they pay professional graphic artists big bucks to
design their logos and their marketing materials, and you fund that
with your Windows license fees.

Or, _contribute_ something back to the wonderful free software
community other than a lengthy email thread of whining.

RE: New freeBSD logo on freebsd.org

2006-05-10 Thread fbsd
Thank you for making my point.
This should have been announced on all lists.
Just not the announcement list.
Changing the logo is really a big thing.

See the outcome of the short sightedness of that decision.

And why should just the core committers be
the only ones given a vote.
Most of them are too busy to even have been
aware this was happening.

Many professional logo design people never even knew about
the contest to redesign the logo because it was not posted
to the questions list where everyone reads.

What makes you think that the announcement list gets even
a fraction of the readers the questions list does.

Hell the questinos list gets enought junk post all ready,
what's the harm in posting such an inportment message to the
list to begin with, not doing so makes no sense at all.

Somebody messed up big time and now they have to deal with the
results of their stupid mistakes.

You core committer people have to break out of this
private club mentality thing you all adhere to.

The logo effects all users and as such we should have vote in the
matter.
What were you all thinking? This was a bad idea from the get go.


Just because core committer have the ability to write high level
code
does not give them the right to thumb your collective noses
at the rest of us users in the matter of needing a new logo.

In moving to an new legal status by forming the FreeBSD
foundation us users just look the other way just long as
the software stays free of cost and no new legal restraints
are imposed on the software use.

But changing the logo effects all users and sham on you
self righteous snobs to even think you have the right to
exclude the user community from the logo decision.

Get off your high horses and serve your users like your suppose to.


I think the new logo should be shit canned and the whole
question of replaceing the beastie logo brought up for
a general vote bye all members of all the Freebsd mailing lists.

Your negtave comments are foundless.
A public vote is not an logistical near-impossibility.
Hell just creating a special list to submit an email
to as your yes or not vote is a simple solution and other
solutions could be found one way or the other.

If you are insulted by my comments then I guess you
belong the self righteous snobs group and I dont care about you.

This is address the the users who like me are out raged by this.

If you dont like the new logo then lets make our combined voices
 make a differance by emailing the new foundation's forming members.

Again, this is the freebsd-questions list. I don't really think
that this is actually the most appropriate place for discussion
of such things (and therefore I should probably apologise for
contributing to this lil' thread!).

 Loyal long time users are feeling insulted about being
 left out from the decision about the need for a new logo.
 A post in the archive give some lame reasons for a new logo
 which many people disagreed with even then but still the
 new legal FreeBSD foundation went ahead any how put it
 on the official website.

 I for one do not see an need to change the logo at all.

Perhaps not, but then again, this is why there's a core team to
make decisions for the project. Granted they're not elected by
every user who's ever heard the word FreeBSD, but I can't
even begin to imagine the logistical near-impossibility this
would be.

Committers were given the chance to vote, and voted for the new
design (again, see http://logo-contest.freebsd.org/result/,
which also has a link to the archived original announcement
to freebsd-announce).

 I would say special effort was made to keep this whole
 new logo thing a secret from the general user population.

See above, it was announced very publically on the
freebsd-announce list.

Thank you for making my point.
This should have been announced on all lists.
Just not the announcement list.
Changing the logo is really a big thing.


Yes. But the point of having a announce list is so that important 
announcements are not jumbled in with lots of where can I download 
freebsd.


Does anyone else think its a logo get over it? When was the last time an 
IT admin went I installed Win 2k3 becuase it has that cool logo thing 
that I like for a screensaver?
