They don't!

Anyone have any success with creating a ipsec tunnel between a freebsd
gateway and a WatchGuard Firebox? It looks like I'm getting past
authentication. I can't tell if the tunnel is actually getting created, but
I certainly cannot move traffic through it.

This is the script I use to accomplish this. Just substitute the network
card interface code with the one you wish to have renewed.
I run this every 24 hours, and have been able to keep the same IP address
for going on 6 months now. It also generates a handy Email to root when
run from /etc/

Perhaps it might have something to do with disk sector size and
memory page size and BUFSIZ all being powers of 2? :)

I'm sorry. I should have waited before hitting the "send" button.
I've had a long and [shitty] day and I shouldn't have blew it off here.
Sorry.

Hi,
certainly removing the malloc will improve performance a lot.
As I already mentioned to Bosko, in principle the available area
in ext.buffers is irrelevant, and i do not believe this will break
anything (and if it does, it will be easy to fix in the kernel),
but some applications might decid

Hi,
Right now, in -CURRENT, there is this hack that I introduced that
basically just allocates a ref. counter for external buffers attached
to mbufs with malloc(9). What this means is that if you do something
like allocate an mbuf and then a cluster, there's a malloc() call that
is ma

Not sure if you've found this already. One thing I used to do on an
older box was a simple cron job that ran a script which HUP'd the
dhclient every so often thus effectively renewing the lease...
If memory serves me it went something like
#!/bin/sh
kill -HUP `ps ax |awk '/dhclien

Its very worthwhile. Tru64 has had this for years. I think there may

Hi,
I've been using dsniff on 4.6-Stable (and earlier) for a while. I've setup
a faster machine to run this in the lab. This machine however has an
built-in xl interface. Things don't work.
The 'old' machine on the same hub works just fine. Its using vx0.
My guess is that doing hw checksum

Hello,
I was looking for program that have lots of features about controlling my

don't know it, check: http://www.q-linux.com/software/quick-r/).
I was wondering if there is something like this but made for BSD, or at

CTLFLAG_RW, 0, "DIVERT");

Hi,
I hope someone can help me with this, I've been struggling with it for quite
some time now.
The set up:
bsdbox.foo.com -> internal GNAT firewall -> otherbox.foo.com
where bsdbox.foo.com has been anything from 4.0 to 4.5, and otherbox.foo.com
is anything from FreeBSD, Solaris 2.7, Solaris
Dear all,
I’ve encountered some strange behavior on my network.
I have two similar FreeBSD servers each with Squid and DNS server (djbdns). One of them is NAT/Firewall. They are in different
locations, thus they are connected trough Frame relay and are in different
subnets. One is “mast
