My current setup does exactly what you describe with several endpoints, iked, ospfd, gif, bridge, vether and pf. There are a few documents available with a quick search but "man gif" is a great place to start since it documents tunneling using etherip and IPSec. I use ospfd to inject multiple default gateway routes into the local routing table. If a given IPSec tunnel goes down the associated default gateway is removed from the local routing table. In this way it's self healing since other tunnels and default gateway routes should still be available. There are occasional quirks with ospfd but this setup works quite well with my use case which is also currently configured as a full-mesh vpn. I'm fairly certain this configuration has been previously discussed on the list. > > I feel like this has to have been solved and can't be that hard. And > without using openVPN to do it... > > Tim.

spamd openbsd 4.0 query
Hello list, I have an older openbsd 3.5 system that is running well just as a firewall NAT router, with 3 interfaces on it. Behind (and protected by) this is another machine. This particular machine was in use as a shell box, running ssh, web and mail under FreeBSD. I have converted it to OpenBSD 4.0. It gets lots of mail, and it has about 30 users on it. It has one NIC. I want to use PF to control spam. Question is, the pf.conf seems to want 2 interfaces in order to do this.. Is it permissable to set int_if and ext_if to be the same (same IP) or should I clone the interface? or is there another way that I haven't thought of? cheers -- John

In the previous FreeBSD setup, spamassassin was used in conjunction with procmail on an individual basis. There was a "possibly_spam" file, for each user, for stuff that was only just over the threshold, and the stuff that was way over it went to /dev/null. This is the first time using it the OpenBSD way. Presumably there is a way of fine-tuning it, so that possibly_spam is accepted. or maybe I've answered my own question :) Sometimes it helps to type it out. So, presumably spamd as actuated by PF takes care of the 100% certain spam, what is then accepted per user depends on invoking spamc/d via a procmail ruleset individually? Am I correct?

how many ptys and resources?
Hello misc@
I recently ran out of ptys, so, I ran MAKEDEV and made about 900 of
them.
I understand that I will have to make a custom kernel now, in order to
use them. What I want to know is, does this line in the kernel config:
pseudo-device pty 16
does that number correspond with the *actual* number of ptys? Because,
when I ran /dev sh ./MAKEDEV pty1 (then pty2 then pty3), I was
surprised to find that I haad made 256 of them (so, I carried on until I
got to pty15 and now theres just over 900)
The machine will be in use by anything up to 30 people logged in at
once.
Is there anything else you would recommend retuning regarding increasing
resources?
I've already looked at login.conf and increased the default maxproc-max
up to 512 from the default (because with about 7 screens and similar
number of xterms, got the warning from sh - cannot fork).
Machine details:

[snip] I think in OpenBSD, that sendmail is tied in rather tightly to the whole OS.

Well I was desperate :)
I confirm what you say is indeed correct, because in /etc/rc we have

echo -n ' sendmail';( /usr/sbin/sendmail

newbie network segment routing query
Hello misc@, I don't know if this is really a packet filtering, or DMZ kind of query. What I've looked at so far (eg: http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/queueing.html) doesn't really describe what I'm trying to do. I hope someone can help. I have a range (a /28) of real IP addresses. The openbsd box (4.0, soon to be upgraded to 4.4) functions as a firewall/router. It forwards packets to the speedtouch router that manages the connection. All the speedtouch router does is to accept traffic for this range, it does not do NAT. presently the openbsd box nats everything. The openbsd box sits behind the router. It has 4 NICs in it: fxp0 to the speedtouch fxp1 for a network that I want to be unfiltered, in other words, real IPs (wired) fxp2 the top usable real IP - this I want to nat behind, it is for wireless fxp3 is unused. Is this a DMZ for fxp1? I don't need this traffic to be processed by the openbsd box, I just want it to go down the right interface. From what I've read, a DMZ involves some queuing/processing. Not sure if my nomenclature is right for what I'm describing. Is there a howto for what I'm trying to do? Do I have to split the /28? many thanks -- John
possibly generic disk copy and restore question
Hello misc, I want to install OpenBSD/amd64 on my laptop (a recent Toshiba amd turon with 3GB RAM) and ONLY have OpenBSD on it, but before I do this, I need to know how I can image the disk and restore it subsequently. It has vista on, and I may need to restore vista should I subsequently need to sell the laptop at some future date. The hard disk was partitioned and formatted at the manufacturers. The first primary partition is not visible as usable space - I think this if from where the OS was prepped. Has anyone had this scenario, if so, what did you use to image the data? Have you restored it since? thanks -- John

Re: possibly generic disk copy and restore question
2008/11/21 Chris Zakelj <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > An even easier solution would be to just buy a new HDD, and stick the > original into a static bag. Why make it harder than it needs to be? True, but this is a home system, and I'm cheap. I want that 170GB drive ;) A side issue I have found is some laptop drives are non-transferable - they seem cryptographically locked to the controller they came from. I had 2 otherwise identical acer aspire laptops, both with Hitachi drives. One got wine spilled onto the keyboard and did something to the motherboard. Tried to whip out this harddrive and put it into the other laptop, and was prompted for a password after POST. I had never set any password (the machine was prepped at the factory). This occurred before any data on the HD could be read, so I think the facility is in the circuitry rather than the physical disk. -- John

laptop page for amd64 laptops
Hello misc, There's a laptop page for i386 laptops at http://www.openbsd.org/i386-laptop.html but none for amd64. Something that has success/failure stories plus dmesg & xorg. Would it be a good idea to have one? Who to suggest to? I thought it'd be a good idea as it is a separate arch and there's a lot of them about... if this is the wrong list, please suggest the right one. -- John
SNMP and NAT
Hi misc@ Reading through the misc@ archives, I see that back in 2003, it was said, to a similar query to mine [0] that: > also, be aware that if there's any kind of NAT involved, the SNMP payloads > will not be translated, so you'll need to be prepared to deal with it. I was wondering if this was still the case, or if there is now some pf way around it, now that we're in 2005, and 3.7 is on its way. [0] I have a selection of openbsd, freebsd, and gentoo linux boxes behind a 3.5 openbsd firewall. They all run behind NAT, because I just have a single IP. Behind the firewall runs a freebsd server with https where I'm running rrdtools and net-snmp to graph traffic and usage from each machine on the LAN. I'd also like to graph my cablemodem but that is on the other side of the firewall, but I can't from the BSD box because of NAT. I can, however, snmpwalk to the cablemodem interface from the openbsd firewall. Note that the WAN interface of the openbsd firewall has the real IP. [1] the way around it, of course, would be to rrdtool/snmp on both boxes then copy the graphs produced to the https server, but I just wondered if there is a better way. thanks for listening. -- John GPG public key at https://shell.reiteration.net/~jfm/gpg.html

Internet Keyword & Asia/Cn domain name registration
Dear Manager, (If you are not the person who is in charge of this, please forward this to your CEO,Thanks) This email is from China domain name registration center, which mainly deal with the domain name registration in China. We received an application from Hanson Ltd on September 17, 2012. They want to register " openbsdies " as their internet keyword and China/Asia (CN/ASIA) domain names. But after checking it, we find this name conflicts with your company. In order to deal with this matter better, so we send you email and confirm whether this company is your distributor or business partner in China or not?

Re: Quick question regarding puffy
On the wider 'it could be considered political' point - it's time everyone in or near tech understand that pretty much everything is political, including technology. If the OpenBSD Foundation want to avoid 'party political' - sure, understandable. But 'anything' political? Impossible. Good luck with the project, Gwen.

If specifying multiple fonts in xterm's font resource key at the same time is not possible, you can achieve this exact behaviour in urvxt, which supports font lookup lists. There, I have: URxvt.font: xft:Fantasque Sans Mono:style=Regular:size=15,\ xft:IPAGothic:antialias=false,\ xft:DejaVu Serif URxvt.boldFont: xft:Fantasque Sans Mono:style=Bold,\ xft:IPAGothic:style=bold:antialias=false,\ xft:DejaVu Sans Mono:style=bold,\ xft:DejaVu Serif:style=bold URxvt.letterSpace: -1 meaning, that if a CJK glyph can't be found in Fantasque Sans, it looks up the glyph in the next listed font.

OpenBSD on Lenovo m710q running minidlna?
I have a Lenovo m710q foobar2000 appliance under Windows 10. I like the box, it's about 1 1/2 as wide as a Lemote Fuloong Mini and about as deep and tall, but has slots for two, 2.5 inch drives. I thought about buying another one to use as a minidlna host under OpenBSD. Does anybody on the list have any experience with OpenBSD and minidlna on this box? Or any experience in general running minidlna on OpenBSD? Thanks, /jl

I'm up to my ass in alligators with work right now so it will take a few days. How do I capture the output? It's been a while since I installed OpenBSD... maybe it gives me an option to mail directly from the installer? I have only a vague memory about it. > Seems it may have a real serial port, if so that's a nice thing to > have on such a small machine. It appears to yes, but since I'm running Windows on it I haven't used it. They're not cheap and the hardware is just kinda meh. The one I bought has 4G of RAM, a 256G SSD (not sure which brand, it's buried in the chassis and hard to get to) and cost 500 Euros. The one I want for the minidlna server will cost about 600 Euros and have 8G of RAM. The box I have has the i3-7100T, it's a two-banger with hyperthreading, good single CPU clocks, 3.4GHz. For the same price you can get a i5- 7400T which is a four banger but no hyperthreading, and significantly slower clocks, 2.4 GHz. Not sure what the benefit to that would be. The disk tray is a flimsy, loose-fitting piece of plastic, not very reassuring. It feels like if you swap disks and out of there a dozen times you're going to be buying a new tray. I'm sure there is better hardware around, maybe even for the same price, but these boxes are readily available from my local shop in a few different variations, and have a nice form factor and some nice features. So far I'm satisfied with it. They advertised mine with a DVD drive, and it doesn't have one of course...when I complained they sent me a USB DVD drive. The enclosure is substantial aluminum, quite sturdy. Feels like you could stack them in a big pile of other gear and nothing would go wrong. And it comes with a separate aluminum tray case with rubber feet that wraps around the bottom and goes up and over both sides (the computer slides into it) and which has a slot for a separate aluminum holder (also included) that holds the power brick. It's a nice package if you don't open it up and look inside. Not sure about the cooling. The fan is tiny. > > > Or any experience in general running minidlna on OpenBSD? > > I used to run this on OpenBSD, it worked reasonably well with the > devices I tried accessing it from.

Thanks, this is good news. I would prefer not to have code doing things "for" me. I tend to rip a lot of discs in big batches and then move a lot of files at once. It would be ideal to update manually. > I had some problems with the multicast bits after the routing > table change to ART, but others couldn't replicate this, maybe it was > because the machine I was running it on was multihomed. I am clueless about networking but I don't anticipate any issues. I have the Windows box roped-off from my LAN so I can't move files around easily, can't use rsync or any convenient *NIX tools etc. It will be very convenient to have OpenBSD running dlna. Thanks, /jl

Not sure, but I don't want to rule out building them all for a couple or reasons. I have a new box which is probably fast enough to make it worthwhile to build packages for some slower boxes I have. Second thing is rebuilding the system from source and then building all the ports is a good stability test. Bottom line is probably that I would rather plan to have the space available and not need it then to need it and not have it. Seems like in the past this was a problem for me. > For skeletons, automatic layout is good enough, but I recommend to > increase /usr/src a little and decrease /home. > Make sure you have ~ 5GB for /usr/src/ and /usr/obj. > Thanks, this helps. The automatic layout didn't include /usr/xenocara There used to be a recommendation in the past to have that as a separate filesystem. How large should it be? Is there any reason to track -stable anymore or has syspatch done away with the need for that? Seems to me, after trying to install OpenBSD on a new box, a lot of the helpful in the FAQ is totally AWOL now and I find it hard to get all the info together. /jl > > > > > On Mon, Jun 25, 2018 at 3:17 PM, John Long wrote: > > Been a while and don't have my other OpenBSD boxes accessible. > > > > What are the recommended partitions and appropriate sizes for > > people > > who want to track stable and possibly build the whole ports tree? > > > > Thanks, > > > > /jl > > > >

I am trying to find out about /usr/xenocara if it is still needed and also whether it's still recommended to build from source and track -stable or whether syspatch does away with that. What is the recommended http server these days? I remember the transition from apache to nginx. What's the conventional wisdom? My plan for this box is sftp, http, and minidlna server. Thank you, /jl

Thanks, Anton. I understood from Stuart how to find old web versions. It's good to know. I started with OpenBSD at 3.6 or 3.7 and installed everything until around 5.2. I still have two boxes running 5.X, they just work and they're not internet-facing so they'll run until they die. But it seems like there was a lot more info in the FAQ in those days. Now I find it more difficult to get info. > Ideally, the auto partition could have templates, for the cases you > have. I think this is a good idea but I guess a lot of people will bang you on the head for suggesting it ;) I don't know that I have ever seen the one-size fits all approach work in any installer I have used, so I think templates make sense. Let the flames begin... Thanks for the other links. I will read all the stuff you and the other guys have pointed me at. /jl

httpd setup info?
Hi,
I read the man pages for httpd and httpd.conf but I remain clueless.
I would like to serve static content (directory listings and contents).
Must I use a chroot for httpd? If so, how do I set it up?
I have my content in /var/content/webserver/.. I would like httpd to
automatically index the contents.
Trying to massage the example/httpd.conf didn't work. I get a 403 when
I try to access my website.
# $OpenBSD: httpd.conf,v 1.18 2018/03/23 11:36:41 florian Exp $
server "example.com" {
listen on * port 80
listen on :: port 80
location "/var/content/webserver/htdocs/*" {
directory auto index
}
}
Thanks

Thank you. What has to be in the chroot besides the content I want to

Thanks, this works. Actually I pushed things down one level and used
chroot "/var/content/webserver"
and then I can take the default for the root macro and omit it.

Best way to serve files to Windows?
Hi, I have minidlna working fine on OpenBSD. However this doens't help with Roon media software since they don't have anything for OpenBSD, unsurprisingly. Roon doesn't want to support dlna. I have my Windows foobar2000 appliance roped-off from my LAN because I don't trust Windows boxes on my network. So I would like to set up some way to serve the files to Windows from OpenBSD. I guess that is CIFS/SAMBA? Is this secure over the network? I have not done this before and I don't know what's involved. Is there an approved CIFS implementation to use? Thanks, /jl
Re: Best way to serve files to Windows?

It's my box and I'm the incompetent sysadmin, so no worries other than those self-inflicted ;) I got spoiled years ago by ssh and RSA authentication and I don't like the idea of username/password in general.. but the traffic doesn't go to the outside world in my setup so I guess it is ok. > keep it simple for now > the eventlog (system event log) with the following > windows command > eventvwr > will spew errors if there are a mismatches in your security settings > and you will get hints by looking up errors as you see them, Thanks, this is good info!

As far as I know just native filesystems depending on the client and whatever qualifies as a Windows Network Fileshare. The all-in-one Roon package is only for Win/MacOS.

Yeah but I don't need another media player and having to sftp each file to play it is unmanageable. foobar2000 on Windows is better than anything else until now for this purpose because nothing that runs on the Pi can use the device drivers for my audio hardware, it's all Windows-only. What Roon does is cooperate with Roon-enabled devices and you can direct music to play on them.

It is kinda complicated and I just started looking into it. There are a few pieces. I am running the whole thing on Windows. The Android and ios versions are display and controller apps but the media is hosted somewhere else. On Windows and Mac you can host and control from one device. On Linux I think you can't do everything either, just host the data. The media is already living on OpenBSD. I guess one option would be to try to get Linux running in a VM under OpenBSD, if it's possible to access data outside the VM. Then I could use anything for a Roon controller clien. > > > way to serve the files to Windows from OpenBSD.

But for music playback there isn't any real option since all the device drivers are for Windows only.

It works fine, the biggest PITA was figuring out what the BIOS is calling legacy boot, I didn't want to use UEFI. I did see a failure to load i915 firmware in the dmesg or log, I didn't follow up on it because I ASSumed it was for the display adapter- which btw works fine over VGA enough to install and get it minimally set up. Since then I'm running it headless. 6.3 has been totally stable (no surprise) and what's interesting is sometimes a terminal running top over SSH looks like the box is dead. I don't ever remember seeing an OS that idled so well. Only the clock on tmux changing lets you know the system is alive.

I have been using minidlna and sambad which are both fine so far for my purposes. The only thing that is missing from minidlna for me is the ability to stream .dss and .dsf audio. Somebody has been maintaining a patch tree to support this for a few years but for some reason it has not been incorporated into whatever the main branch is. I don't get why anybody would want transcoding in 2018. My own use case is high res audio and I absolutely don't want to kill sound quality by transcoding. I don't do much video but I also don't get it why anybody would be happy about reducing video quality given how cheap bandwidth is these days. > I've rewritten the install guide from the official Serviio website > to > instead run Serviio as a separate user, use a better install > location > and not grab the full jdk.

Domain name including openbsd
Hi, I was wondering if the OpenBSD community permits the usage of the "openbsd" word inside a domain name with the purpose of offering commercial OpenBSD-based services? For example let's say I want to sell OpenBSD-based cloud services, would I be allowed to purchase the domain name openbsd.cloud and use it to sell my OpenBSD-based cloud services? Best regards, John
x, c and v misbehaving in GTK applications
Hello all! I'm having this weird issue on OpenBSD 6.3. In some GTK applications -- so far only in Evolution and Chromium, but not Firefox or SeaMonkey -- the letters x, c and v have stopped working in some text fields. Instead of entering the letters, it's as if Control is pressed and they perform Cut, Copy and Paste. Has anybody experienced anything similar? Any idea what the problem might be? I'm fairly new to OpenBSD and its mailing lists. Is this the appropriate place to discuss this, or should I report the bug somewhere else? If so, where? Much thanks, John
Re: Some highlights: Emacs 21.4 and 25.3
Personally I use Emacs 25.x on OpenBSD 6.3, with the caveat being that I rely on a number of customizations to normalize behavior to be what I expect.

This may be a bit off-topic but the feature responsible for this is 'electric-indent-mode', which is enabled by default in 24.4 or later. http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Indent-Convenience.html#index-Electric-Indent-mode Put (electric-indent-mode -1) somewhere in your Emacs configuration when using 24.4 or later.

ksh equivalent to shell-expand-line
Hello again, Is there a way for ksh to expand a $(command substitution) without having to execute the entire line? bash provides this via shell-expand-line (bound to Ctrl-Alt-e by default), and ksh seems to have expand-file, but that only works for filenames. Any ideas? Best regards, John

No. That's too bad. bash provides this via shell-expand-line (bound to Ctrl-Alt-e by default), From bash(1): shell-expand-line (M-C-e) Expand the line as the shell does. This performs alias and history expansion as well as all of the shell word expansions. And yet, it disregards quoting and will errornously expand the following example into multiple words instead of one: bash-4.4$ echo "$(echo a b)" bash-4.4$ echo a b There is a discussion about this behavior on the bug-bash mailing list: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2016-11/msg00010.html Turns out to be a relatively simple fix, but the old behavior will remain the default (as of 2016). and ksh seems to have expand-file, but that only works for filenames. We have no other expanding functions. Would there be any interest among the pdksh developers in a function like shell-expand-line (but which works properly), if somebody like me did the work?

I only like OpenBSD, That's why I'm so sorry if they're wrong It might be interesting to take a look at the source of mksh[1], another ksh implementation, which has a similar binding called evaluate-region.

Re: phonetic alphabet on OpenBSD
Jan Stary wrote: Are there any phoneticians running on OpenBSD? How do you type the phonetic alphabet in vim? Is there a standard keyboard layout for the English part of IPA?

I found this on DuckDuckGo via the search query "ipa xkb layout": http://www.ajmakkas.com/pages/c_xkbipa.html You could add that to /usr/X11R6/share/X11/xkb/symbols/ and use setxkbmap to switch to it. I would assign a key binding to it in my window manager. If you use a desktop environment like GNOME, you might want to edit ../rules/evdev.xml in order to be able to find the keyboard layout in the graphical keyboard preferences.

Persistent flags for disabled daemons?
Hi, I am not understanding how to get rcctl to use the flags in /etc/rc.conf.local for minidlna rcctl get minidlna shows minidlna_flags=NO even though rc.conf.local has minidlna_flags=-R If I use rcctl set to set minidlna's flags to -R it seems it will only allow me to do it when minidlna is enabled. I would like the flags to survive disablement because I don't want to start the minidlna server every time the box comes up. Thanks, /jl

If I have a flag specified in rc.conf.local it does not seem to be respected when I start the daemon using rcctl. It seems like it would make sense for the status of the daemon (enabled/disabled) to be separate from the flags. /jl

Re: dynamic dns updates for clients in my home network?

Ansible network_cli module broke
Installed the ansible pkg via pkg_add. I cannot get the ansible network_cli module to work in OpenBSD. Tried in version 6.6 and also 6.7 and both hang at "using connection plugin network_cli". It never times out, hangs here forever. I copied my ansible configuration files over to a fedora OS and the ansible-playbook works successfully.

6.7 boot crashes on "entry point at" X1 Carbon gen7 i7-10510U
Hello, I tried to upgrade my Lenovo X1 Carbon 7th generation i7-10510U from 6.6 to 6.7. The last reboot freezes at "entry point at 0x1001000". I tried to do a pure install, but booting from the USB stick leads immediately to the "entry point at 0x1001000" freeze. I found various past threads here or on Reddit for "entry point at 0x..." but none yield anything useful. I attach the 6.6 dmesg, I fetched it after re-installing 6.6.

Hard power down is the only way out, but rebooting still leads immediately to the "entry point at 0x1001000" wall. It is consistent. I tried boot -c, boot -d or boot -s, still the same wall. I have just tried with the install67.img snapshot (22-May-2020 21:12 476545024) from https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/amd64/ but it leads to the same "entry point at 0x1001000" right after boot.

Hello, I can confirm that the hang doesn't happen with the 6.7 kernel and the 6.6 boot loader (bootx64 3.46). The hang happens with the 6.7 boot loader (3.50). I will try to do a 6.7 install with the 3.46 boot loader. Thanks a lot! John

I performed the install on the machine drive (sd0) with MBR and the install was successful. Dmesg below for the resulting 6.7 Snapshot. I tried to install on sd0 with GPT.

Re: Recommendations for USB Barcode Scanner and Thermal Receipt Printer
+1 for Symbol here. Have used them in factory environments and I can’t recall one ever failing. If buying used, be sure you can get the documentation for it, as these are often configurable (eg. continuous vs. triggered scanning) via scanning special barcodes.

Boot NVME device on sparc64
Hi there, Does anyone have a way of booting a pcie nvme device on sparc64. I can install OBSD on the device but of course there is no way OBP can see it as a boot device. I can also use it for storage under OpenBSD which works fine. But! Is there any way to boot OpenBSD 6.5 installed on this drive on sparc64. I'm using a Sun t5120. Kind regards John.
Re: IPv6 NDP not completing
Hi, I'm having very similar problems to this, I think. Syspatch'ed OpenBSD 6.5 on an apu4c4, with my ISP-supplied termination device (cable modem, effectively) directly attached to an ethernet interface. No switch. IPv4 works fine. DHCPv6 NA+PD seems to work OK — I get v6 NA & PD assignments — but I can't ping anything beyond my gateway. If I use the ISP-supplied router I have fully functional dualstack networking. I saw sthen@'s recent post on this topic with his configs included. I adjusted my configs (which were already pretty close) to reflect what he'd done, but no joy :-(. FWIW my ISP is Telstra in Australia. Looking around a bit I found a pfSense discussion wherein the suggestion was to make a config change to what I assume underneath the pfSense UI is FreeBSD's "net.inet6.icmp6.nd6_onlink_ns_rfc4861" sysctl: https://whirlpool.net.au/wiki/pfsense_ipv6_telstra But I also found this old discussion that suggested that OpenBSD's behaviour here — and lack of this particular knob — was a result of a nasty old CVE: https://misc.openbsd.narkive.com/3KdNDcEM/openbsd-ignoring-rfc-compliant-ipv6-neighbor-solicitation#post1 My next discovery step is to boot Debian on my spare apu4c4 and see if it works there, capture some traffic, etc. I don't want to use that as a gateway, though.

Apple Display via Thunderbolt on macbook pro
Hello, I have OpenBSD 6.5 installed on a MacBook Pro (mid-2015) and I was hoping to use a couple of my 27" Apple Displays with it. Has anyone had any success with them? I don't see anything pop up in dmesg when I plug them in so not sure if the system detects them or of OpenBSD recognizes the Thunderbolt bus. I see "Intel DSL 5520 Thunderbolt" rev 0x00 at pci4 dev 0 function 0 not configured in the dmesg. Thanks, John
Bluetooth support status
Hello, Just curious if there was any change in OpenBSD supporting bluetooth. In this commit from tedu@ it's saying that support was ripped out of the kernel because it never really worked. https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-cvs&m=140511572108715&w=2 man -k blue brings up nothing appros. Thanks, JB
Re: Bluetooth support status
ok, thanks. Bluetooth is overcomplicated and if it's not managed properly it just opens up the attack surface for no reason. It definitely makes some things easy but there are always workarounds.

Re: Bluetooth support status
Right, without reading the code and only reading this commit message it's all conjecture. I was just hoping to hear something more if someone was inclined to share. inclined. The commit message seems like some sort of inside joke. Log message: "It's not the years, honey; it's the mileage." bluetooth support doesn't work and isn't going anywhere. the current design is a dead end, and should not be the basis for any future support. general consensus says to whack it so as to not mislead the unwary.

Re: Bluetooth support status
Ha. I was about to start out with how I can guess how complicated managing an operating system is. Then I see the last line of your email saying, "How about if you don't know, stop making guesses". My comments only apply to my experience coding for bluetooth on mobile devices and it was just overcomplicated for me and I felt it was opening up an unnecessary attack surface. That opinion has nothing to do with OpenBSD. Just writing this here in case someone tries to use this in a future conversation.

Re: What is you motivational to use OpenBSD
User since ~2001 here, albeit intermittently. My first encounter with it was where it was used — mostly to run Postfix, Squid and BIND, if my hazy memory is trustworthy — by a private company who was effectively an ISP for many Australian Federal Government departments. I think the aspect I like most is the gradual, carefully-considered but also inexorable flow of improvements that may individually look small, but, when viewed collectively, represent a huge improvement. A [software developer] colleague recently said, in a different context, "a big-bang release only guarantees a big bang". Seems appropriate here. I might have missed one but I can't remember a "big bang" OpenBSD release. That's a good thing.

Re: Tools for writers
I really like Markdown for actual writing, because its markup for logical structure is quite low-key and non-distracting, and (unlike *roff or LaTeX) it also reads pretty well in source form. Tables are fairly annoying, particularly if I later have to insert a column in mid table. Use whatever editor works best for you. I use Vim because when I switched from Emacs back in 1999 my wrist problems disappeared almost overnight, a consequence of replacing almost all of the multi-key combinations with single keystrokes. If not for the physiological consequences I would probably still be using Emacs, or an emacslike such as jed or mg. Frankly I think it’s a bit weird that so many people are using an editor with key mappings expressly designed for a (Space Cadet) keyboard that few people ever had even seen in real life, never mind actually used. But evidently people cope just fine. That’s good, I guess? John On Sun, Nov 3, 2019 at 02:07 Oliver Leaver-Smith wrote: > Hello, > > What tools do people find useful for writing on OpenBSD?

Kinesis Advantage not working with USB 3 in OpenBSD 5.8
Hi misc, I use a Kinesis Advantage keyboard. It stopped working when I upgraded to 5.8. It was not a great setback, as I had a similar problem on another machine with Win 7. If I disable USB 3 in the BIOS, it works again. It just means that I don't have USB 3, which is not a show-stopper for me. But maybe this is an issue that would interest one of the devs. The Kinesis page says: "Advantage keyboard’s currently do not work on most Windows 7 computers which have USB 3.0 ports, even if they also have USB 2.0. This problem does not exist in other operating systems, including Windows 8, Mac & Linux. Possible work-around: If your Windows 7 computer only has USB 3.0 ports available, enter the BIOS of your computer during bootup. Look for “USB Configuration” section in which there may be a checkbox or option for “Enable USB 3.0 Controller”. Uncheck the box or disable USB 3.0, reboot,and test keyboard." I guess we can add OpenBSD to the OS's that do not work. Cheers, John My dmesg below.

Regex in doas.conf
Hello, I used sudo wish some expressions in sudoer like: foo ALL=NOPASSWD: /bin/bar -a [a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z] This matches commands like â/bin/bar abc" for example. I try in doas.conf: permit nopass foo as root cmd /bin/bar args -a [a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z] but this does not work. Is there a way to use regular expressions in the configuration like in sudo?

It may have been in the example where somebody shows how to run OpenBSD VAX under SIMH. In the SIMH .conf you use at xq tap:tap0 I ASSume you would use a similar syntax in QEMU's config. That is, use tap:tap0 as your network interface name instead of re0. I commented out the fwddelay to see if it affected anything and it doesn't seem to in this application. /jl -- ASCII ribbon campaign ( ) Powered by Lemote Fuloong against HTML e-mail X Loongson MIPS and OpenBSD and proprietary/ \http://www.mutt.org attachments / \ Code Blue or Go Home!

OpenBSD5.7, hangs on ppb6 "Intel 5000 PCIE" Dell poweredge 1950
We had a drive failure, and after replacement I am reinstalling our bridging Firewall, OpenBSD 5.7 - amd64, bsd.mp kernal. This is the same version that was running stably on this server before. HW: Dell Poweredge 1950 v2, BIOS 2.7.0 We made it through the install OK, but on first boot, I hang on: "ppb6 at pci0 dev 3 function 0 "Intel 5000 PCIE" rev 0x12" "pci7 at ppb6 bus 1" I've gone through the BIOS and disabled everything, including the NICs which I actually need for the final solution, and I still hang at the same device "Intel 5000 PCIE" rev 0x12" while the OS is loading. Google hasn't turned up much of use. Any ideas? -- Thanks, John N.

Thanks, I'll start running through our spare PERC5i cards and see if the problem is affected.

In my experience with this servers - poweredge 1950 - this has been 'fixed' by changing RAID cards, we keep a lot of PERC5 cards on site because of this... sometimes we have seen some 'broken capacitors' on these cards, so sometimes the card was broken, not some hdds regards~
