I don't understand what you don't understand. There's no such thing as a half-encrypted svnd (=partition). If you can mount an encrypted svnd then you have a totally encrypted drive. If you put it in fstab even better, but you need to somehow get it to ask you for a password (-k) or give it a saltfile (-K) from somewhere when it does that (and you better not store that password on the same laptop). -Nick I mean that can I encrypt my /dev/sd0g directly instead of creating image in it and encrypting and mounting that image as /home. I tried to read about the svnd and it only seems to work on files. Timo
Re: Ext2fs Mount Problem

I had FreeBSD on this server last and it was able to mount this ext2 fs fine after installing the e2fsprogs suite. I built and installed the e2fsprogs suite from ports on the OpenBSD server, but when I run /usr/local/sbin/e2fsck /dev/wd1i it makes a lot of fixes and then the whole system crashes and drops me to a ddb prompt.

Re: Perl/libc? segfault
I tried to track this down to a single message but I failed - when I divided
the large mailbox into two halves, each of the halves went through successfully.
BTW, the spamassassing still segfaults regularly.

And there's a few easter eggs hidden in the song as well. It also explains the inside sleeve image... Cool! As a big fan of Rush, I like it so much! Artwork is also incredible!

If you fetch snapshots as they appear and install them, then at some point, two times a year, you will be running something very close to the -release version. When your dmesg output switches to -current again, you're past that point. Some of us run snapshots pretty much right away when we notice there's a new one out (but buy CDs and other gear anyway to support the project), at least on some systems. If that sounds too scary, your best option is to order your CDs early and watch errata.html for any patches.

ext2fs mount problem
I have an old backup drive from a Linux file server I was running. I want it to be mounted in my new openBSD box, but I'm having trouble with it. I had FreeBSD on this server last and it was able to mount this ext2 fs fine after installing the e2fsprogs suite. I built and installed the e2fsprogs suite from ports on the OpenBSD machine, but when I run /usr/local/sbin/e2fsck /dev/wd1i it makes a lot of fixes and then the whole system crashes and drops me to a ddb prompt. Here's some info about the drive, any thoughts or suggestions are much appreciated. Before this happened I didn't see all the dma errors in dmesg: # dmesg |grep wd1 wd1 at pciide0 channel 1 drive 0: Maxtor 6Y060P0 wd1: 16-sector PIO, LBA, 58644MB, 120103200 sectors wd1(pciide0:1:0): using PIO mode 4, Ultra-DMA mode 4 dkcsum: wd1 matches BIOS drive 0x81 wd1i: DMA error reading fsbn -1030692568 of -1030692568-3 (wd1 bn -1030692505; cn 3238367 tn 13 sn 36), retrying wd1i: DMA error reading fsbn -1030692568 of -1030692568-3 (wd1 bn -1030692505; cn 3238367 tn 13 sn 36), retrying wd1i: DMA error reading fsbn -1030692568 of -1030692568-3 (wd1 bn -1030692505; cn 3238367 tn 13 sn 36), retrying wd1i: DMA error reading fsbn -1030692568 of -1030692568-3 (wd1 bn -1030692505; cn 3238367 tn 13 sn 36), retrying wd1 at pciide0 channel 1 drive 0: Maxtor 6Y060P0 wd1: 16-sector PIO, LBA, 58644MB, 120103200 sectors wd1(pciide0:1:0): using PIO mode 4, Ultra-DMA mode 4 dkcsum: wd1 matches BIOS drive 0x81 wd1i: DMA error reading fsbn -1030692568 of -1030692568-3 (wd1 bn -1030692505; cn 3238367 tn 13 sn 36), retrying wd1i: DMA error reading fsbn -1030692568 of -1030692568-3 (wd1 bn -1030692505; cn 3238367 tn 13 sn 36), retrying wd1i: DMA error reading fsbn -1030692568 of -1030692568-3 (wd1 bn -1030692505; cn 3238367 tn 13 sn 36), retrying wd1i: DMA error reading fsbn -1030692568 of -1030692568-3 (wd1 bn -1030692505; cn 3238367 tn 13 sn 36), retrying wd1 at pciide0 channel 1 drive 0: Maxtor 6Y060P0 wd1: 16-sector PIO, LBA, 58644MB, 120103200 sectors wd1(pciide0:1:0): using PIO mode 4, Ultra-DMA mode 4 dkcsum: wd1 matches BIOS drive 0x81 disklabel wd1i: # disklabel wd1i # /dev/rwd1i: type: ESDI disk: ESDI/IDE disk label: Maxtor 6Y060P0 flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 63 tracks/cylinder: 16 sectors/cylinder: 1008 cylinders: 16383 total sectors: 120103200 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # microseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # microseconds drivedata: 0 16 partitions: # sizeoffset fstype [fsize bsize cpg] c: 120103200 0 unused 0 0 # Cyl 0 -119149 i: 12010313763 ext2fs # Cyl 0*-119149

Another segfault in DB_File.so
I guess this means a bug in DB_File.so or Perl. No matter how badly
Spamassassin is written it must not be able to produce a segfault.
Is DB_File.so an OpenBSD-specific implementation of database?
This segfault was produce by sa-learn -D --sync and the last debug message it
printed was [25545] dbg: bayes: tie-ing to DB file R/O
/home/clock/.spamassassin/bayes_seen
Backtrace from core dump and the output from sa-learn -D --sync follows.

Correct place to report bugs in perl
I would like to report a bug - a segfault - in Perl v5.8.8 which is a standard part of OBSD 4.0. The perl page says that perlbjug should be used for perl version 5. man perlbug says: If you have found a bug with a non-standard port (one that was not part of the standard distribution), a binary distribution, or a non-standard module (such as Tk, CGI, etc), then please see the documentation that came with that distribution to determine the correct place to report bugs. The perl comes in a binary distribution therefore I should see the documentation that came with the distribution. I looked into man perl but it doesn't say anything about where bugs should be reported. So where should I report it? CL

Re: hardware for vpn
Just one question regarding VPNs OpenBSD and HW, is there any recomendation for hardware? i mean, i want to setup a VPN between 2 offices and i need some reasonable speed.. with a computer with some recent hardware do i need any vpn card to accelerate encryptation/decryptation? No, you don't need any specific hardware. Many vendors invented crypto hardware for machines, but some of them got it so wrong. First off, machines have gotten more than fast enough. Secondly, AES was designed to be very fast on a native cpu. Thirdly, many of the crypto engines required a hand off to device, get a reply later that it is complete, and this increased the latency -- on slower machines where the crypto engine was supposed to speed the crypto up it turned out to slow it down because the overhead was so high. The only designer that did the symmetric cipher stuff right was VIA with their C3/C7 AES instructions. You don't need any specific hardware; Your machine is more than capable of handling the crypto for a VPN.
How can I install 4 OS'es on one disk?
I have a new laptop that I would like to set up to have 4 different OS's on. The OS's I would like to install are: OpenBSD FreeBSD Linux Windows (XP r Vista) Is it possible to do this on the one disk. I do have enough space, my concern is about portions. If it is possible can anyone give me an idea how best to approach this? Or a pointer to some docs? Ate the moment the machine has the Vista part-ion, and it's recovery partition (which I figure I don;t need), and a Linux partition on it. I can boot Linux, or Vista using Grub. -- I'm sorry, no one here has any intentions of helping you with anything. I am the manager of all of Customer Service.

X11 very slow with SMP kernel
Hi! I can see X redraw the screen top down very slowly when I use the SMP kernel on my Thinkpad T60. I can actually see it draw the background first and then every widget one by one. I don't see this behaviour when I use GENERIC. I use an the amd64 kernel. I tried with a 2 month old snapshot and a freshly built GENERIC.MP checked out this afternoon with the same result. spaceman% uname -a OpenBSD spaceman.my.domain 4.2 GENERIC.MP#0 amd64 dmesg: http://www.hcl-club.lu/~jaj/foo/dmesg `X -version`: http://www.hcl-club.lu/~jaj/foo/xversion Is this a know issue? Do I need to rebuild Xenocara with special knobs to use it with bsd.mp? Could you point me into a direction to further investigate this? Best regards, Jona

Ate the moment the machine has the Vista part-ion, and it's recovery partition (which I figure I don;t need), and a Linux partition on it. I can boot Linux, or Vista using Grub. The answer to your subject: line is with pain Not really an OpenBSD question, more of a How well do you know your OSs? question... You have four primary partitions to play with. Windows, OpenBSD, and possibly FreeBSD will each *need* to be in one of those partitions. I think you are a bit fast to toss your recovery partition, you may wish to give this machine to someone else later, you might wish it was still there for their benefit (at least, dump it to something where you can later put it back. g4u may be your friend here). Besides, if you don't end up dumping your Windows installation, and probably your recovery partition by accident in this process, you were probably lucky. That leaves one partition. And Linux likes to use multiple fdisk partitions (unless you follow the advice of those that propose swapping to RAM disks). So, you probably need to make this one remaining partition an extended partition. Linux will use an extended partition, but I'm not sure if it can boot from one, nor do I know if a boot loader will extract it and boot from there (and I suspect there will be vendor-specific BIOS questions, too). That's your problem to figure out. Personally, I think this is a bad plan. I really can't imagine that you will be regularly using all four OSs on the one machine. This probably means you are wishing to learn all four OSs (or learn some and use some, whatever). Learning implies not yet master of, and multi-booting requires either complete mastery of the boot process of ALL involved OSs, or a type this and don't ask any questions HOWTO for idiots guide, and you aren't likely to find one that matches your exact combo. Since you are asking the question, you aren't complete master of the boot process, I suspect. Get an old PC, install ONE OS on it, learn it. Once you understand the boot process on that OS, set your laptop up to multi-boot with that OS, use your PC to learn the next one. I don't think I'd try to get four OSs on one machine, just use the laptop as a terminal for other OSs on other machines. Nick.

Ate the moment the machine has the Vista part-ion, and it's recovery partition (which I figure I don;t need), and a Linux partition on it. I can boot Linux, or Vista using Grub. Well all the OSes you listed can just boot directly from the MBR (see biosboot(8) and FAQ #4 http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq4.html), and as luck would have it 4 is the exact maximum number of primary partitions that a DOS/MBR-based system can boot. What you should do is run fdisk(8) (linux's or freebsd's or openbsd's) to divy up your disk into the four partitions. If you run fdisk wd0 you can see the four available. You should use the unix fdisk because it allows you to do more than Windows' restrictive one. Then when yo ugo to install, install Windows first. It's installer is flakey and likes to mess with partitions, sometimes even not how you tell it to (it depends on certain things like what Partition Type ID code you use for each, and such), so do that first and make it work. Once that's good, you can safely install the other OSes without worry of them stomping on each other (so long as you, you know, make sure to install to the correct partition). Then just set up a bootloader (NTLDR http://www.tburke.net/info/ntldr/ntldr_hacking_guide.htm, GRUB, or whatever) to boot your OSes. -Nick

In the exact same setup (same hardware even) I am comparing Linux and OpenBSD for a firewall. Installed Linux on a hard-disc, OpenBSD on another disc, and I'm just swapping discs while I'm testing. All firewall rules are written as stateless as possible - I don't need stateful filtering, the setup is very simple (allow HTTP inbound, allow a few ICMP types, and that's it). With Linux, I achieve gigabit transfer speeds through the firewall (saturating the network ports), but the firewall refuses to let any new connection through when I flood it with a bunch of small UDP packets with random source addresses. I expected OpenBSD 4.1 to do better. But the thing is, even without the UDP flood, the OpenBSD firewall is very slow. I am downloading a huge file through it, via HTTP, and all I get is 4 Mbyte / sec. With Linux I get 112 Mbyte / sec. Something's wrong. Or I'm doing something wrong. The hardware is AMD64, Tyan Transport, 2 CPUs 2 cores each. I am using the SMP kernel. The network card is Intel Pro/1000 PCI Express 4x dual gigabit port, it carries both em0 and em1. I guess you need to enable acpi with config(8) as the system is quite new and most newer system have busted MP BIOS infos. The effect is bad interrupt routing and other crazyness -- which is often felt as slow systems. -- :wq Claudio

Booting FreeBSD through grub is nicely explained here: http://ezine.daemonnews.org/200102/grub.html. A similar entry needs to be made for OpenBSD too. Also note that grub starts the numbering from 0, so your partitions will be 0 for Win, 1 for OpenBSD, 2 for FreeBSD, and 3 for Linux.
