Dynamic DNS Updates
FreeBSD- I would like to know how to make my server running 4.9 update my networks Dynamic Ip address on my domains DNS servers. My ip is always changing because it's dynamic, so a domain is essentially pointless unless i can get this up and running. You could say i want my domain to function as though it were assigned to a Static IP. I have been googleing for hours, and i can't understand any of it. Please be advised, i am somewhat new to FreeBSD. Thanks a lot. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
[no subject]
FreeBSD- Please help, this is really important. I was told that i could get rid of the ^m symbols at the end of the lines in my web page's html code by using sed. They said to execute sed "s//^m^m" index.html > index.html or something like that. This got rid of everything in the file. I really need this back, so any help would be greatly appreciated. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
BIND
Wondering if there is a way to configure BIND to automatically update a dynamic ip within your own dns? If not, can anyone recommend a good simple client? Also my isp is roadrunner, and they say that they don't allow web services to be run on dynamic ips. Do they mean that they block the ports literally or does it just mean they frown upon it?

Network Gateway
I am a little unsure of what hardware to buy for this network. _____ | || | __ | A |> | B |--> |__C_| |__||__| | | |->| D | |<| | |__ | | | | | | |_ | || | | F | | E | |___ | |__| A is my cable modem, b is a freebsd gateway/natd/bind/httpd server (lot's of stuff, but most of them don't get too many requests; the webserver is very small). I use natd's port redirection to give f and e the ability to be accessed from the internet via ssh and ftp. F is the main file server, while E holds other unrelated files and is also a bakcup server for F. E also does samba for another client i didn't put on there. D is an unrelated lan. You'll notice i have skipped c. This is because i don't know what to buy (router, switch, or hub). I think when you run natd it acts as a firewall (the data under the gateway needs to be protected), but is it enough to warrant not buying a router? I'm not sure how hubs or switches work. Thanks a lot (i hope someone has an answer becuase these stupid drawings took me like an hour). ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
chrooted ssh/scp
Does anyone know how to make it so that users can ssh in and get a normal shell or scp in and get or send files but only within their own home directories via chroot? ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
sun ultra 5 boot problems
I have successfully installed freebsd on 9.1 gb hdd in my ultra 5 (freebsd had no errors during install.) However when i say probe-ide at the obp it doesn't even find the disk, which would explain why it can't boot of course. Any help would be appreciated. -Thanks ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Symbios SCSI on Sun Ultra 5
Hello- I am trying to install FreeBSD 5.2 sparc64 on my sun ultra 5. I have a Symbios SCSI card and when FreeBSD probes the device sym0 (the symbios card) it says sym0: No NVRAM, ID 7, Fast-20, SE, Parity Checking sym0: CACHE INCORRECTLY CONFIGURED panic: trap: memory address not aligned cpuid = 0; Uptime: 1s Before this when the openfirmware probes the devices it gives a "Fast Data Access MMU Miss"- not sure what that means. Any help fixing this would be appreciatied. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
ISDN Jack Installation
Hello- My new house is currently being built, and I am wondering if I should install an ISDN jack now so that the SBC people don't have to do it once the walls are up and I actually want an ISDN connection. What do the people who install it have to do to get is upstairs when they install it, is it difficult? How is an ISDN line added, and can I do it myself?

ctime date
Hello- Does anyone know how to get the ctime(3) format of the date in a script (i.e without actually writing a C program to return it). -Thanks. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Diskless Servers
Hello- Is it a good idea to run a mail server or web server diskless? The reason I want to do this is so that all of our server's files will be in one place which will make backups more convenient. Basically I am thinking of running one NFS/TFTP file server with disks, and those disks will contain the partitions for a web server, a mail server, and a login server which will all boot diskless. Is this safe and ok performance wise? Thanks. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Vinum
I have a question about how vinum effects access to file systems. When i have a vinum volume on a drive which contains the file system /usr, which is being mirrored to another volume on another drive, are the contents of /usr encompassed in the volume (like a partition) or is the volume just a part of /usr. Basically i want to have a RAID-1 setup that mirrors the information on one drive to another. If i do this will i be able to access all the files on the first hard drive as though it was just a regular partition. If so how do i partition, is there something special i have to do at the partition editor when i install? Do i need subdisks and plexes just to mirror the file systems' data? Sorry if this is a bad question but the handbook has me a little confused.
