rc.d/rc.conf cleanup?

Hello all, I have a NetBSD system that has existed since the late 90's. The /etc/rc.d directory has a bunch of junk that shouldn't be in there. The rc.conf is a mess as well. I could go through each entry and clean it up manually, but I'm wondering if there is an automated way to do this?

NPF question

I've been using pf for a long time, and I'm trying to convert to npf. During testing (netbsd-7 from nyftp this month, vm on VMWare Fusion), I found something that looks like a problem but I'm not sure. I'm using a very stripped down version of the soho example config file in

Bridge device on netbsd-6

I've got a fairly recent build of netbsd6 from nyftp running on an i386 server. I had a single wm0 interface, but I added a 4 port wm interface, so wm0 became wm4. This is fine. However, I decided to bridge all of the wm interfaces together and I'm getting strange results. Not all interfaces are

NetBSD on wifi router?

Hello all, I'm looking for a wifi router that supports NetBSD I would prefer some commonly available hardware that I could install NetBSD onto, and hopefully support the internal wifi adapter. Does this exist? I see there is something called wifiBSD but I'm not sure about it's status. Thanks!

Re: NetBSD on wifi router?

Yeah. I've got some hardware that should work, Raspberry Pi, Seagate Dockstar, etc. The problem I ran into was that bridging my USB wifi adapter to the internal interface was very flaky. It was dropping some frames and passing others. A kind soul gave me a patch to run tcpdump on the bridge

Using CARP with dhcpd?

I'm trying to find evidence that carp can work with dhcpd. All of the examples I have read are for ip level services, not layer 2. The ISC dhcpd has it's own failover method, which might be what I should use, but it would be nice if it it could work with carp. It's not clear to me how carp
