Re: serial terminal direct connection to remote host at login
Am 09. September 2005 um 16:56:19 +0200 schrieb Karl M. Joch: is there any way to hardwire the terminal to a remote host? i already searched all of the ttys aso man pages, but had no luck findig a solution. Telnet is crap anyway. Use 'ssh' instead. If you provide ssh keys, you can login w/o further password asking and your users have to give the password only once at the serial login. Liebe Grüße, Nora.

Re: Creating a mini install disk, for particular needs

Look at http://www.pcbsd.org/ also. I did just for fun the installation of http://ftp.plusline.de/pcbsd/PCBSD-0.6-x86.iso and I'm very impressed. A small, but working KDE Desktop out of the box (FreeBSD 5.3, KDE 3.4) without any huzzle. Start the (graphical!!) installer and get yourself a mug of coffee (or what else you prefere).

Re: ftp_proxy and http_proxy don't work

Re: crypt() default behavior

I thought this and did it comment out in my postinstall script before I run it first on 4.2-STABLE. But surprisingly a 'passwd somone' resulted in creating a DES password key! Therefore, I activated my change of the links of the crypt libraries again in my script. That works for me, in that both DES and MD5 password keys are recognized by all programs in the system and only MD5 password keys are created. Thats what I want and what I had since 1994 (FreeBSD 1.1.5.1 :-) Liebe Grüße, Nora. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]http://www.sappho-net.de/ Lesbian Computer Networks, Finland http://www.sappho.net/ Web for Women (von Frauen, für Frauen) http://www.w4w.net/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
RELEASE vs. Snapshot (BETA) question
Hello. What is ftp://releng4.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/i386/4.2-20001121-BETA (from Nov 21 13:49 GMT) related to ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.2-RELEASE (from Nov 20 17:49 GMT) The RELEASE seems older than the BETA.

crontab -e
Moin. I've changed one of my machines from 4.1-20001022-STABLE to 4.2-2000-BETA Now 'crontab -e' doesn't work anymore since my system editor is 'vim-6.0k'.

I think that 755 will be enough for cu. Then all users but 'uucp' can't operate with 'cu' on the device owned by 'uucp'. The s-bit in the owner rights indicates that the 'cu' always operate as user 'uucp' regardless of which user it has started and therfore has the permisson for this device. May be we can talk about the reason for s-bit in the group rights.

Well, the 'cu' command is like many others in your unix -- if not to say most others -- a program of general purpose and intended for the use of several users. In your special case, you may restrict the use of 'cu' but this isn't valid for normal cases. Better is the restriction on the cisco itself. Most cisco's (if not all) can be password protected.
