FreeBSD Production Release ISO images
Hi there, I'm wondering if the FreeBSD 6.2 Production Release ISO images get updated periodically when there are important patches, or is it better to download the latest snapshot to save the trouble of updating everything after installing?

Get the cwd of a process?
Is there any way to get the cwd of a process? We had the situation recently where a perl script was called from an infiltrated Wordpress installation, but we weren't able to determine which of the hundreds of Wordpress blogs was the source. The ps listing showed: www 63968 2.4 0.2 26092 5008 ?? Rs5:36PM 93:10.67 ./mrf.pl (perl5.8.8) The procfs entry was no help because it does not seem to provide a cwd. The cmdline entry just showed "/usr/local/bin/perl ./mrf.pl". We had to kill the process, and who ever was responsible did a good job of hiding their tracks. But should this happen again (and we expect it will), we'd like to be able to find the source.

Re: Get the cwd of a process?
Thanks for the info! It works in my test case, but this spammer popped again, and unfortunately, I still couldn't reveal the source: The ps listing shows: www29488 5.7 0.2 14144 5360 ?? Ss7:47AM 37:24.83 ./jug.pl (perl5.8.8) And the lsof -p 29488 -a -d cwd only shows: COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME perl5.8.8 29488 www cwd VDIR 0,83 5122 / I don't understand how the cwd could be /, as there was no jug.pl there, and the www user cannot write to the root. Could there be another trick being employed? I'm actually a little puzzled by the ps listing. It shows the interpreter at the end in parentheses, but if I invoke a similarly-named script from the shell, it lists it as "/usr/bin/perl ./jug.pl". I also cannot find any traces of these perl scripts anywhere on the machine, though my tests show that you can safely delete the script after it is loaded by the interpreter. *trying something...* Okay, so I've written a little script to reproduce what I'm seeing: #!/usr/bin/perl $pid = fork(); if ($pid) { unlink("test.pl"); exit(0); } else { chdir "/"; print "Hello world\n"; sleep 300; } This must be what is happening. When I do an lsof, I get: COMMAND PIDUSER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME perl5.8.8 95492 patrick cwd VDIR 0,83 5122 / And there's no trace left of my script because I unlink()ed it. This seems like it's going to be awfully hard to track down. I've gone through every access_log to see if I can see anything suspicious. So far, nothing yet, but I guess I'll keep plugging away at it. *sigh* Patrick On Thu, Oct 29, 2009 at 8:48 PM, Dan Nelson wrote: > In the last episode (Oct 29), patrick said: >> Is there any way to get the cwd of a process?

Re: Get the cwd of a process?
I've made some headway... perl supports "sitecustomize.pl" which can be used to execute code when any perl script is run. It doesn't seem to be enabled by default, so I had to add the following line to /usr/ports/lang/perl5.8/Makefile's CONFIGURE_ARGS: -Dusesitecustomize \ As a temporary measure, my sitecustomize.pl has: system "echo $$ $ENV{'PWD'} $0 ". (localtime) . " >>/tmp/scripts_used.lst"; (found this in another thread somewhere) So, hopefully the next time this spammer comes back, I will see the original working directory, etc. before the process forks itself.

Re: Remote ssh tunnel in background or script?
Check out /usr/ports/security/autossh autossh is a program to start a copy of ssh and monitor it, restarting it as necessary should it die or stop passing traffic. The original idea and the mechanism were from rstunnel (Reliable SSH Tunnel). With this version the method changes: autossh uses ssh to construct a loop of ssh forwardings (one from local to remote, one from remote to local), and then sends test data that it expects to get back. (The idea is thanks to Terrence Martin.)

Re: Questions about Jail
While it may work in some cases, it can be a bad idea because jails use the kernel of the host, and it's probably safest if your userland matches the rest. If you want to play with different versions of FreeBSD, you should do so in a virtualized environment. If jails are a good fit for you and you want to easily keep things up to date across jails, I'd take a look at ezjail: http://erdgeist.org/arts/software/ezjail/ Patrick On Mon, Apr 2, 2012 at 11:20 PM, James Y Chen wrote: > Hi > > I think Jail on FreeBSD 8.2 can generate 2 jailed machine using the same > version of FreeBSD, for example, on a 8.2 AMD64 Jailer, I can create 2 > or more FreeBSD 8.2 amd64 Jailed machine. > > My question is: can I install other version of FreeBSD on the Jailed > environment?

Re: question about milter software
I think you'll find Postfix to be much more modern and easy to work with for that kind of message rewriting. But what you're looking for is pretty complicated when you start having to deal with multipart messages; the messages have to be completely processed and separated into respective parts, and then once the rich part is found, you've got to parse the HTML and insert the footer into the right spot, and then recompile the message. And if the message is plain text only, you can't insert HTML and have it be displayed as such. In short, I doubt you'll have much success in doing this well. It would be better to configure this in the email client and lock that down somehow.

I guess it's pretty subjective, which is how I should have originally prefaced my statement. I used sendmail for a long time, and always hated working with m4 or direct sendmail configuration files. For me, Postfix is so much easier, but to each his own. For your immediate need, I'd look at http://www.ledge.co.za/software/disclaimermilter/ or MIMEDefang (http://www.mimedefang.org/) which appears to be able to add disclaimers.

Re: Firewall, blocking POP3
See /usr/ports/security/py-fail2ban (http://www.fail2ban.org/). Used in conjunction with FreeBSD's ipfw or pf firewall facility, you can ban an attacking IP address for a set period of time after a configurable amount of failed attempts. Fail2ban watches your log files for you and then triggers some sort of action -- which can really be anything you can conceive of.

Re: Whats the difference between password+RSA, and password-protected RSA ?
In the case of a passphrase-protected RSA key, the server knowsnothing about it, so you would never be able to enforce that. It's onthe client side that the key is decrypted with the passphrase beforesubmitting it to the server.

Re: Jail with public IP alias
Hi Alejandro, That's how I've got things setup, too, but I'm not seeing the same behaviour. So I was wondering if there was something different about your setup such as using NAT to allow a jail with a private IP to access the internet at large.

On the host system, yes, but when a jail is bound to a particular IP, outbound connections originate from that bound IP. At least they do for me in all of my experience. Still wondering if you're using NAT with your jails, as that could change things. (FWIW, we use ezjail as well. It doesn't do anything special except make having lots of jails easy and lightweight.)

ipfw divert with exception?
I have a FreeBSD 6.0 machine acting as a router for our office. We use natd for address translation, and I have rule like so: ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via ${ext_if} To allow incoming SSH access, I have a redirect_port line setup in my /etc/natd.conf file, and while it works just fine, I don't like that natd has to be running in order for me to SSH into the server. (Because, if -- hypothetically of course -- one were to *cough* accidentally kill the natd process without realizing this, then *ahem*, one would be locked out remotely without any means of fixing it. And I'd like to stress that this situation is indeed, uh, hypothetical. ;) ) So, I'm sure there is a way for me to create some ipfw rules above the divert line to accept incoming SSH traffic and not having it get diverted, but I'm at a bit of a loss as to how I can achieve this. The current rule I have above this does not do anything to stop the traffic from being diverted: ipfw add accept tcp from any to any 22 in via ${ext_if} Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.

"ipfw count" equivalent for pf
Hi there, Now that FreeBSD 5.x has pf from OpenBSD, I'm wondering if some of the pf experts can help me with porting a simple ipfw configuration from FreeBSD 4.x to pf in FreeBSD 5.x. On our 4.x servers, we have several rules like: ipfw add count ip from any to x.x.x.x ipfw add count ip from x.x.x.x to any ... to keep track of how much traffic is going through a particular IP address. Every night, I capture the data and zero the counters. Using pf, I'm having a difficult time how to establish a similar ruleset so that I can gather the same sort of data. Someone on the openbsd-misc list told me to "add labels to those rules you want to account traffic on and use `pdfctl -sl` to read their counters." The problem is that I'm not sure how to describe the rules using pf. I suppose the rules should just pass all traffic to and from my external interface, but from all the pf documentation I've read, I can't find an example that seems to do this for me. Can any experts lend a hand here? It seems like this should be dead-easy to do, but like many things from the OpenBSD world, it does not seem to straight-forward to me.

Re: "ipfw count" equivalent for pf
I didn't receive any advice relevant to solving my problem, but I did manage to figure it out in the end. I thought I'd share my solution in case anyone else wants to do the same thing: My /etc/pf.conf has the following lines: ext_if="rl0" external_addr="x.x.x.x" pass in on $ext_if from any to $external_addr label "$dstaddr in" pass out on $ext_if from $external_addr to any label "$srcaddr out" Activate the rules with "pfctl -f /etc/pf.conf", and then you can display the counters by doing a "pfctl -sl" which outputs something like: x.x.x.x in 14363 7448 734450 x.x.x.x out 13810 6362 683319 To zero the counters, I've just been calling "pfctl -f /etc/pf.conf" again, though there may be a more "proper" way.

edquota -p question
I notice that in FreeBSD 4.x, if you apply a disk quota to one user using another as a proto-username (edquota -p ), it also copies the proto-user's current usage statistic. Could this be seen as a bug? If the proto-user happens to be over quota, their usage should not be applied to the new user.

Adding a default route for a specific NIC
I have a FreeBSD 4.11 server with two NICs -- one has a real IP (bge0) and the other has an internal IP (bge1, 192.168.42.6). The default route for the server (defaultrouter= in rc.conf) is the gateway for the real IP. How can I set a route such that traffic going out on bge1 goes through a different router, even if it's to the outside world? Basically, I have a jailed setup running with a private IP address. On the private network, there is a gateway machine that's setup to NAT the traffic out to the internet. Currently, I cannot get out to the internet from the jail unless I set the default route of the entire server to be my internal NAT gateway. Any ideas?

Re: Adding a default route for a specific NIC
And one more bit of info that might be helpful to know... The jail I've setup will serve sites on various IP addresses. Since FreeBSD jails by default only allow one IP, I've given the jail an internal IP, and am just forwarding the desired ports on the external IPs into the jail's IP using ipfw. This is all working fine, so the only thing left for me to solve is how to get things in my jail working so that I can make outbound TCP connections.

FreeBSD 4.11 + named + sandbox options
I've enabled the commented out named_flags="-u bind -g bind" in my rc.conf to start named in a sandbox, but whenever I do a "named.reload", I get the following message in my logs: Jul 14 14:20:55 pompom named[34352]: couldn't create pid file '/var/run/named.pid' It doesn't really seem to be a big deal because doing a reload doesn't create a new PID anyway, but it is nevertheless annoying to have these messages showing up.

Jail cloning problem
I built a jail, and then I tar'd it up after some setup so that I could create new jails quickly. When I start up a cloned jail, everything works except SSH. If I try to ssh outside of the jail, I just get: "Host key verification failed.". I know from past experience that if I rebuild the second jail the "make world" way, everything works fine, so I suspect that there is some permissions or dev issue after untarring. I'm 100% certain that it does not have to do with any actual host key verification. I've rebuilt the dev folder using MAKEDEV jail, and have also tried ensuring that permissions are correct in /tmp and /var, but to no avail. Can anyone think of any reason why SSH wouldn't work in a cloned jail like this?

Re: Jail cloning problem
So is it a repairable permissions issue, or is it something that I could never fix? The jail wasn't built on its own filesystem, and because I don't have a spare drive to do that, I'm hoping that there is some way possible to make cloning work using tar.

Obviously it would be possible to just open up the computer and see for my self, I'm hoping I can save myself a trip and wrecking an uptime of 670 days. :) Thanks, Patrick ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

BIND 9.3.2 on FreeBSD 6.1-release-p2
I'm running BIND 9.3.2 on FreeBSD 6.1, and am noticing that it gets out of control after running for a while. PIDUID THR PRI NICE SIZERES STATETIME WCPU COMMAND 60480 53 1 1320 195M 194M RUN 41.7H 75.54% named After restarting it, its CPU usage goes back down to what it should be, as does its memory usage. I really don't want to babysit this process, so I'm trying to find the cause of this. I have "max-cache-size" set to "150M", as before I turned this on, this process would just grow and grow until it hit FreeBSD's limit and would stop responding all together, not to mention eating up as much CPU time as it could. I never had this problem at all with BIND 8, and am wondering if there's something I'm doing wrong with BIND 9 to have this problem? Has anyone else experienced this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Which version of BIND to use on FreeBSD 6.1?
I'm trying to figure out which is the best version of BIND to use on FreeBSD 6.1? I've always stuck with FreeBSD's base version, and since upgrading from FreeBSD 4.x to 6.1, that meant moving from BIND 8.3.x to 9.3.2. I've encountered numerous problems since moving to 9.3.2 which primarily revolve around exponential increases in memory and CPU usage. On our BIND 8.3.x setup, we have 750 master domains. Memory usage is just shy of 70MBs. On our new server with BIND 9.3.2, we have currently 140 master domains, and memory usage continually grows until FreeBSD cuts it off. I have discovered the "max-cache-size" option which allows me set an upper limit, but when the named process hits that limit, it starts eating up all available CPU cycles. I've seen some similar reports from other users, but haven't found any real solutions. While browsing the ports tree, I found I have my pick of BIND 8.3.x, 8.4.x, and a ports version of 9.3.x (not sure exactly how this differs from base -- more current?). Our needs are fairly basic -- we have a few DNS servers, and each are masters and slaves, helping one another out. We're not using DNSSEC or anything. I'm wondering what other people are generally using, and which version works best for them?

Re: Which version of BIND to use on FreeBSD 6.1?
I think I'll rephrase my question. What real advantage is there for me running BIND 9 over BIND 8? Version 9 seems to require a lot more memory and is still giving me this really annoying problem of using all my CPU time when it hits the max_cache_size. I'm not using DNSSEC or IPV6...

Forwarding external-bound packets internally with ipfw
I have a few servers, and I'd like to force secondary servers to deliver mail to the primary via a private network (each server is dual-homed). Mail would be deemed "local" (destined for my LAN) by specifying a bunch of CIDRs. I would like to accomplish this using ipfw's forwarding support, but I am having a problem getting the rule right. I first tried using ipfw forward, but after reading the man page in greater detail, it seems like this likely won't work. My next thought is to use ipfw's divert functionality in conjunction with natd, but it is not clear to me how I could tell natd to forward to the correct internal server using the redirect_port option. Ideally, I would like to maintain only one list of IP blocks. Additionally, it seems like natd wants you define a rule per IP, which will get to be rather annoying when dealing with hundreds of IPs that could easily be classified using a mask. An example of what I want to do follows: Server A: public IPs: 1.2.3.0/24, private IP: 192.168.0.1 Server B: public IPs: 2.3.4.0/24, private IP: 192.168.0.2 Server C: public IPs: 3.4.5.0/24, private IP: 192.168.0.3 When Server B accepts mail destined for Server A, I would like it to route through 192.168.0.1 rather than the public IP. The same goes for if Server C accepts mail for Server A or B using the respective internal IP. This isn't really relevant, but I'm using Postfix as my mailer. It does have an option to force a relay_host, but it will not let you differentiate destinations. This works fine with two hosts on the network, but not for three or more. Any ideas of how I could accomplish this?

Using cvsup + make world, and keeping custom patches
I recently had a need to patch the FreeBSD's jail utility to support multiple IP addresses. On a recent "make update" using cvsup, my patched versions of the jail files were blown away, and now I'll need to reapply the patches.

Re: php/apache/ssl core dumps
Hi Ruben, I have been experiencing the same thing, both by using the ports and by building manually from source. I prefer to build from source, as I find the ports tree to be a bit difficult to use when it comes to the way it handles PHP stuff.

Limit # of connections per IP using ipfw?
Is there a way to limit the number of TCP connections from a particular IP at a given time using ipfw? We are running Cyrus IMAP on FreeBSD 6.2, and are sometimes subject to POP3 brute force login attacks. I'm not sure if it's Cyrus or the SASL SQL plugin, but these attacks grind the server to halt (the load level goes up beyond 350!). The database against which authentication takes places is on a separate server, so I know it's not MySQL's fault. I'd like to be able to set a firewall rule to set a reasonable limit per IP for these sorts of connections. I know that pf can do it, and I'm in the process of figuring out how to migrate all of our stuff over to pf, but in the meantime, I'd like to try to do this with ipfw.

Re: Multiple versions of PHP

Re: Multiple versions of PHP
Okay, I got it installed, but I had to make temporary changes to /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.php.mk. My first idea was to build with: make PREFIX=/usr/local/php5 LOCALBASE=/usr/local/php5 but that didn't work because other things expect LOCALBASE to be /usr/local (or rather, expect that whatever LOCALBASE is set to will contain various other supporting build utilities). It would be nice if bsd.php.mk used ${LOCALPHPBASE} which would by default be set to ${LOCALBASE}. This would allow for multiple installations of PHP in different locations.

Mounting an NFS volume served by Mac OS X
I'm wondering if anyone has had any success in mounting an NFS export from a Mac OS X machine on FreeBSD 7.2? When I try, I get: RPCPROG_MNT: RPC: Authentication error; why = Client credential too weak The man page for exports on Mac OS X has: -sec=mechanism1:mechanism2... This option specifies one or more security mechanisms required for access to the exported directory. The security mechanisms currently supported are krb5p, krb5i, krb5, and sys. Multiple security mechanisms can be spec- ified as a colon separated list, and should be in the order of most preferred to least preferred. In the absence of this option, the security mechanism defaults to sys. My export does not specify this, so "sys" is what is being used. Not exactly sure what that means... I don't see any options in mount_nfs(8) on the FreeBSD side that has anything to do with authentication or security mechanisms... Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

6.0 and fsck_snapshot
I rebooted out FreeBSD 6.0 server today. I noticed that it froze during the shutdown, so I had to do a hard reset. After it reboot, I did an ls on one of our filesystems (250GB SATA drive). Instead of all of the files that would normally be there, all there was was a .snap folder. When I did an ls in there, the process hung. I rebooted once again, and I can get into the .snap folder just fine. Except that all of my files are still missing, and instead it appears I have one big fsck_snapshot file. Is there any way I can recover from this and restore my files?

BIND inside a jail on FreeBSD 6.0
I'm trying to run BIND inside a jail on FreeBSD 6.0, and I'm encountering the following problem: [EMAIL PROTECTED] /var/named]# /etc/rc.d/named start mount_devfs: Operation not permitted /etc/rc.d/named: WARNING: devfs_domount(): Unable to mount devfs on /var/named/dev devfs rule: ioctl DEVFSIO_RAPPLY: Operation not permitted devfs rule: ioctl DEVFSIO_RAPPLY: Operation not permitted Starting named. And then it doesn't start... (I realize that BIND already runs in a chroot'd environment, but I'm running a second copy of BIND on an existing development server as a secondary test environment.) The problem looks like it originates in /etc/rc.d/named: # Mount a devfs in the chroot directory if needed # umount ${named_chrootdir}/dev 2>/dev/null devfs_domount ${named_chrootdir}/dev devfsrules_hide_all devfs -m ${named_chrootdir}/dev rule apply path null unhide devfs -m ${named_chrootdir}/dev rule apply path random unhide I tried mounting the devfs outside the jail to the jail's /var/named/dev, and then commenting out these lines above, but named will still not start. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Re: BIND inside a jail on FreeBSD 6.0
Thanks, that did the trick. I'm not running this in a jail because I'm paranoid or anything -- I just need a test environment, and I don't have an extra machine kicking around. :) Patrick On 5/1/06, David Robillard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: BIND is trying to setup a chroot(8) before it starts. If you're already inside a jail, then IMHO it is a little overkill (i.e. Running BIND in a chroot inside a jail). Check the BIND related values in rc.conf(5). The chroot(8) startup is triggered via this one: named_chrootdir="/var/named"# Chroot directory (or "" not to auto-chroot it) So try setting it to named_chrootdir="" and it should disable the chroot code from the startup script. Of course, if you still need to chroot(8) your named(8) install inside your jail, then you're at the same point. Consider running another jail perhaps? Or use BIND's view feature.

Re: quota and /var/mail
If you want to only have one set of quotas, you might consider switching to a Postfix/Maildir setup where your users' inboxes will be located in their home folder rather than in /var/mail. It's a fairly easy switch: install Postfix from /usr/ports/mail/postfix, and then you just need to configure one line in your Postfix's main.cf to turn on Maildir support: http://www.postfix.org/faq.html#maildir Though, there might be a bit of a learning curve with respect to the differences between Sendmail and Postfix to convert the rest of your configuration over. It all depends on how complicated your current setup is.

Installing FreeBSD 7.1 on a Dell Inspiron 530s - HELP!
Hi, I just got a new Dell Inspiron 530s, and am having some trouble getting FreeBSD 7.1 installed on it. When I boot up from the CD, after it detects all of the disks, I start getting messages like: acd0: TIMEOUT - READ_BIG retrying (1 retry left) and so on. Google results suggested that I disable ACPI from the boot menu. This works insofar as I get to the installation menu; however, when I go to partition the disk, it says that no disks were found. Is there a way I can disable ACPI, but set some boot-time variables to help the system find the disk controller? I'm in the process of creating a LiveCD to see if acpidump might help isolate just what the problem is, but if anyone has some advice in the meantime, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Control IRQ assignment?
I'm running FreeBSD 7.1 on a new Dell Inspiron 530s. I'm having an issue where the same IRQ is being assigned for multiple devices, and I have a device that absolutely needs its own IRQ. The BIOS is very limiting, and won't allow me to disable shared IRQ assignment. Some suggestions I've read about booting FreeBSD with ACPI hasn't been an option, because without it enabled, FreeBSD does not see the SATA controllers/disks, and thus won't boot. Linux has a utility called irqbalance (http://www.irqbalance.org/) that seems like it could be promising, but of course it is Linux-specific. Is there any way in FreeBSD that I can help the system decide which IRQs to assign to what? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Re: why is the PHP stuff line "off" by default in ports/lang/php5?
I don't for sure, but I'd say it's off by default because not everyone runs PHP with Apache, and mod_php5/libphp5.so is strictly for Apache. Lots of people use PHP with FastCGI or other purposes. If you always want it to be on, add the option to /etc/make.conf. Or, if you're using portupgrade or some other port management utility for upgrades, there are ways to set the default options for the ports you use. Hindsight is 20/20, but I'll go out on a limb here and say that it's generally considered good practice to test software after upgrading -- particularly if it's a web server running websites. Another thing to consider would be running something like Nagios to monitor your systems/sites to make sure things are working properly.

My ipfw rule is: ipfw add 550 fwd 127.0.0.1,3128 tcp from ${int_net} to any 80 via ${int_if} Patrick On Tue, Sep 21, 2010 at 12:41 PM, Ed Flecko wrote: > Hi folks, > I have a small group of people in my office (less than 20), and I want > to set up a FBSD/Squid server, and I'm hoping someone might have some > suggestions for the install. > > It's a clean install of FBSD 8.1, and the sole purpose of the server > is a Squid server.

Use boot2 to boot kernel
Hi, I am wondering if kernel can be boot from boot2 instead of loader as I read the boot(8) man page that it can. However when I tried boot: ad(0,a)/boot/kernel/kernel FreeBSD halted with BTX halted and the register values are displayed on screen. Does anyone know how to boot kernel by boot2?

Fw: Best way for a gmirrored gjournal?
Dear all, I'm forwarding this message to this lists, as current@ obviously was the wrong recipient. I kindly ask you for your ideas and proposals on my questions below. Regards, Patrick Begin forwarded message: Date: Mon, 22 Oct 2007 19:08:35 +0200 From: Patrick Hurrelmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Best way for a gmirrored gjournal? Hi all, Currently I'm trying to install a new server and need some hints on how to best configure filesystems using gmirror and gjournal. The server in question is a amd64 with 512mb of ram and 2x 80gb sata hdds. So I was thinking of a mount-point layout like the following: ad0s1 / (1gb) swap(1gb) /var(8gb) /tmp(1gb) /home (4gb) /usr (13gb) /jails (39gb) ad0s2 10gb for journaling Which would leave a space of 10gb for journaling. I digged through the mailinglist-archives and man-pages of gmirror and gjournal but all I ended up with are questions and doubts :) Now I wanted to create 2 mirrors (gm0s1 and gm0s2). Gmirror gm0s1 containing the slices ad0s1 and ad2s1, while gm0s2 should contain ad0s2 and ad2s2. I created 2 slices, as with the above shown partitioning I was running out of mount-points for this slice. Is such a layout reasonable? Or is it stupid to use a dedicated slice just for journaling and better skip e.g /tmp partition to leave space for a dedicated journaling partition on this slice? Btw. are 10gb enough for journaling of 6 partitions? Or do I need one dedicated partition for journaling each? If I skip using a separate partition for journaling data, gjournal keeps telling me that e.g. the root partion of 1gb is too small for jorunaling. Would it be save to decrease journal size altough man-page discourages? What do you people out there suggest? How do you handle systems with gmirror and gjournal combined? Or even use ZFS although ram is limited (as the machine will serve up several jails with e.g. postgres)? I'm really looking forward to suggestions from you. I intentionally directed this mail to current@ as I think that here are the most people around with experience on gjournal. But if I better should direct this mail to questions@ I'm happy to do so, too.

Support of Macbook Pro under FreeBSD 7 ?
Hello, Could you tell me what is the state of the support of Macbook Pro under 7.0 ? (experimental, bad, good, very good ?)

question about floating point calcuation with shell script / bc
Hi I have a file with numbers in each line. Each number is a decimal number. My task is to add them up and get the final answer. I have searched with the search engine. I found bash cannot handle floating point calculation. I tried to use 'bc' and found if the final answer is < 1 (eg. 0.2) It display .2 instead of 0.2 (no leading zero). Any suggestion or other methods? I know ksh could do floating point calculation but I am now familiar with ksh. Regards Patrick __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Determining kernel?
I was reading through the handbook section on updating, as I'd like to update a FreeBSD 6.2 system. One of the things I noticed is that you need to specify what kernel you want in the KERNCONF line. Is there any way to get a running FreeBSD system to tell me what kernel is being used? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
