NAT66 with temporary address
I was trying to use NAT66, from some internal subnets to my IPv6 internet address, using the following line with 5.9 release. match out on $intout inet6 from !(egress:network) to any nat-to ($intout:0) The last part expands to the link local address of the interface, which is the first address but not really useful for NAT. I would like it to use the relevant temporary address set by autoconf. Is there a way to specify this? Maybe we would need additional modifiers for it?

Re: pf logging: tcpdump: need root privileges
Daniel Polak [2006-05-29, 00:37:06]: Martin, The solution in the FAQ was ok for 3.8 but things changed in 3.9. For now if you run the script underneath from root's crontab every 5 minutes you'll most likely be ok. There should be a check in the script to see if it is already running to prevent another instance starting when the old one hasn't finished yet. The check in the script in the FAQ was actually not working anyway so if the script in the FAQ wasn't causing any problems this one will be ok too. With this script there is just one script and no need for the user pflogger anymore as everything is done as root. This allows tcpdump to privsep which makes things safer. /etc/pflogrotate: #!/bin/sh # rotate pflog file and feed to syslog FILE=/var/log/pflog5min.$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M) kill -ALRM $(cat /var/run/pflogd.pid) if [ $(ls -l /var/log/pflog | cut -d -f 8) -gt 24 ]; then mv /var/log/pflog $FILE kill -HUP $(cat /var/run/pflogd.pid) tcpdump -n -e -ttt -r $FILE | logger -p local0.info rm $FILE fi I've adjusted the FAQ page with the new script, thanks! steven Disclaimer: http://www.kuleuven.be/cwis/email_disclaimer.htm
Re: Splitting xbaseXY.tgz - stupid idea?
Liviu Daia [2006-05-22, 12:27:18]: Ok, let me rephrase this. How realistic will be to run an OpenBSD firewall or router without xbase a few years from now? Huh? You do not and will not need xbase to run a firewall/router. With the release of 3.9, there seems to be a new trend among port maintainers to make running a systems without xbase a PITA You are completely blowing up your own gd/xbase/no space left on device problem beyond proportion, and accusing/insulting port maintainers for it? compiling ports that don't depend on X at run time now requires X (example: nmap-no_x11), and building ports without xbase is now unsupported (FAQ 15.4.1). You do not understand. Unsupported does not mean impossible, it means you are on your own to do it. If you can't do this, just use the no_x11 package, as has been said many times now. what I'm asking is: is all this an accident, or the new official policy? Will there be any effort put into making sure ports don't depend on X when that's reasonably feasible? Does anybody still care? What's the official take on this? Clearly, this no_x11 stuff has a low priority. If you are still talking about making no_x11 flavors for the gd library and everything that depends on it, I doubt this will happen. But yeah, no_x11 packages can be created when it's feasible and useful; this has been done in the past and can continue in the future. As for building ports on system without X11, nobody cares AFAIK. Now please stop wasting people's time with this. steven Disclaimer: http://www.kuleuven.be/cwis/email_disclaimer.htm

A question arises now to me: as I have read on the FAQ, everything must be kept in sync. Is it mandatory to remove the packages and reinstall them again from ports when I upgrade the base system to the STABLE branch?. no. keeping stuff in sync is much more of an issue when running -current. Or perhaps, can I asume that the STABLE patch branch does not modify the base system enough to break the ports? yes. This is a very time consuming task as my computer has got a slow Internet connection (5kB/s) and a not too fast processor (1200 MHz).

When I installed OpenBSD/i386 3.8 on this machine I issued the D command during the disklabel stage to start with a clean label and although all the BSD partitions were removed, all the ext3 partitions remained. When I tried the same with the amd64 snapshot, the ext3 partitions were not kept and the only thing remaining was the c partition. Obviously I didn't want to go ahead with the installation for fear of data loss so I would just like to know if this is normal, whether it's a change in behaviour between 3.8 and the snapshot or if it's an i386/amd64 thing. If it makes any difference, the label I reset when installing 3.8 was left over from a FreeBSD install. I see the same happening on 3.8-release vs. 3.8-current on i386 for systems with foreign filesystems. Not sure why. I've had a look through the latest disklabel man page and it says: Note that when a disk has no real BSD disklabel, the kernel creates a de- fault label so that the disk can be used. This default label will in- clude other partitions found on the disk if they are supported on your architecture. For example, on systems that support fdisk(8) partitions the default label will also include DOS and Linux partitions. I'm assuming this behaviour also applies to the D command, in which case does this mean that ext2/3 isn't supported on AMD64 machines? by default ext2fs is enabled for all architectures: $ grep -i ext2fs /usr/src/sys/conf/GENERIC option EXT2FS # Second Extended Filesystem If I proceed with the install, will the ext3 partitions still be there afterwards (even if OpenBSD can't see them)? Normally, yes. However, you should make sure that all partitions in the disklabel are within the OpenBSD fdisk partition (normally and unless you have been doing strange things, they should). Then OpenBSD should leave your data in other fdisk partitions (like your ext3 partitions) alone. In any case it's a good idea to really understand what you are doing when altering partition tables, and you always have backups of your data, of course. If you want to access those ext3 partitions from OpenBSD they will need to be listed in the disklabel again. There is a section in the FAQ about foreign filesystems (14.16) and Nick has also rewritten 14.1 for hopefully better understanding. :) -- steven Disclaimer: http://www.kuleuven.be/cwis/email_disclaimer.htm

Isn't it more secure to use absolute path for running the pwd_mkdb?
@path = ('/bin', '/usr/bin', '/usr/local/bin');
that's the path where it looks for shells. a bit further you can see
$ENV{'PATH'} = /sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin;

Hmm that doesn't answer my question.
The answer I am looking for could be one of the following.
1. The PATH environment is local to the process and cannot be tampered with.
2. The PATH environment is global but if someone can tampered with it
you are screwed
anyway so it doesn't matter that the pwd_mkdb is called using a
relative path.
3. The PATH environment however very slim can be tempered with so
adduser instead calls
/evilfiles/pwd_mkdb then adding an absolute path sounds like
something that should be done.
$ENV is inherited from the parent process, but $ENV{'PATH'} is set
explicitly inside the script, so it will have the desired value
mentioned above.

So having found a working recipe that seems easy, I thought it was worth pointing out to folks that if you do something else, you might hit the hassles we did. I had tried to reuse an old partition table and failed even though it sure looked OK to me - the install program wouldn't progress past the formatting section; my friend had problems when he formatted the swap partition before the data partition. never had any such problems. really, the FAQ covers disk setup quite extensively!

recommended USB 2.0 host adapters?
hi, I'm going to extend my i386 machine with a USB 2.0 (PCI) host adapter. Are there any recommended cards or cards that I should not buy or that do not work? thanks, -- steven Disclaimer: http://www.kuleuven.be/cwis/email_disclaimer.htm
Re: Onboard and USB Sound Trouble
Hello I have installed and used sound successfully in the past. I reread the man and faq pages about sound but still no good. This is an amd64 setup so I dont know if that is the reason for my trouble. On motherboard is nForce4 AC97 and USB is Creative Technology SB Live! 24-bit External. Neither one works (or seems to work) but both are supported as far as I know. The weirdest thing is that the usb audio comes up as uaudio0 and audio1 on the dmesg, however there is no /dev/audio1 nor /dev/uaudio0. Am I missing something here? you can create extra device nodes with MAKEDEV(8). in your case that would be audio1 and mixer1. then you can point audioctl and mixerctl to the correct device with the -f flag or recreate the symlinks audio and mixer to point to the right device. if you decide to use only one sound device, you could also disable for example the onboard sound in your kernel. then your USB sound will end up at audio0 - see boot_config(8). no idea why you onboard sound isn't working. do you get any errors when using audio software, like mpg123, xmms, ... ? if you don't get errors, you could try unmuting all outputs, sometimes some of them get swapped. steven
