Could you please provide a dmesg output? The info you gave is not very helpful 
without it.

Re: Question regarding wi-fi card support

2019-08-10 Thread Tony Boston
keep in mind that  iwm(4) doesn’t have 802.11ac functionality 

from the manpage:
The iwm driver does not support any of the 802.11ac capabilities offered
 by the adapters.  Support for 802.11n 40MHz channels and Tx aggregation
 is not yet implemented.  Additional work is required in ieee80211(9)
 before those features can be supported.

just so you know

I stumbled upon this when I installed OpenBSD on a few thinkpads with those 
chips built-in and was wondering why I couldn’t connect to my 2nd home network

Re: Apache 2.4 not running php OpenBSD 6.4

2019-07-11 Thread Tony Boston
IT is not about going to sites like stackoverflow or asking for solutions on 
mailing lists especially THIS topic doesn’t have anything to do with openbsd.
You should learn the basics and your “issue” is very basic. 
I bet the logs you’ll get from either application tell you what the problem is 
but you don’t seem to even know that this would be the first start to solving 
problems..

the daily cron is not running anymore although I can execute '/bin/sh

don't have any clue what else to check.
Do you guys have any idea?

35C3 - Chaos Communication Congress 2018

2018-10-27 Thread Tony Boston
Hello all,

I'd like to ask if somebody is going to the congress this year.
I attended last year too but I had to leave at the first day after 3
hours because I somehow got lost and didn't find a place "to be".

Are there any plans for an assembly or similar or at least an
openbsd-meetup where I could take part?

Any information or direct contact via email would be really
appreciated.

As far as my knowledge goes, since you say 'pass out quick inet' early
on in the ruleset, the other 'pass out rules' don't get a chance to be
triggered. Also, quick only makes sense if you put them at first, not
somewhere at the end of your ruleset.

I'd suggest Thunderbird + Enigmail for that but that really depends on

pkg using "6.3" instead of "snapshots"

2018-03-24 Thread Tony Boston
Hello list,

 am using -current on my x230 for a while now which was working okay
since today. When I downloaded the new bsd.rd and did an upgrade, it
said that it would download from /pub/OpenBSD/6.3/amd64 which I had to
change to s/6.3/snaptshots here. The problem is, pkg now always uses
"6.3" when I try to update packages or install new ones. Is there a
switch I have to set? I didn't need to do anything like that before.

Cheers

Hey Mike,

thanks for digging in.
Yeah I know what the error messages says.
AFAIK can't be low memory:
   real   virtual free
Active   634752634752  6461648
All 1364904   1364904 14790512

Maybe a login.conf thing?

sendsyslog error 55

2017-08-11 Thread Tony Boston
Hello @misc,

I have an issue with syslog here.

Aug 12 07:49:03 srv01 last message repeated 2 times
Aug 12 07:49:03 srv01 sendsyslog: dropped 2 messages, error 55
Aug 12 07:49:03 srv01 sendsyslog: dropped 2 messages, error 55
Aug 12 07:49:03 srv01 sendsyslog: dropped 1 message, error 55
Aug 12 07:49:03 srv01 sendsyslog: dropped 2 messages, error 55
Aug 12 07:49:03 srv01 sendsyslog: dropped 1 message, error 55

I was searching the web for any help on that one but I all I could find
was other users having the same problem but not clue how to fix it.

I have two questions here.

1. how can I figure out what is generating all those messages and fix it
(thats what logs are for)
2. Is there a built in function to somehow get warned about those errors
right away or would one just check syslog on a regular basis

Thanks
