I use that gateway box to be the network backup device. All the computers are connected to a linksys router (the shuttle cube is dmz'd). Right now I do a nightly tar.gz of the home,var and etc directory on the shuttle cube to the gateway box. In about a month I'll be bringing home an IBM 205VL server (850 celeron, 256 meg ram and two 40 gig hard drives) to replace the gateway box. I would like to know, in general, how people would configure that IBM server to do a little more than just store simple backups from the shuttle cube server. Really I would like a situation where if the shuttle cube died, I could just dmz the IBM box to serve the webpages and email that the shuttle cube does. It's not a "mission critical" situation, but I just want to be able to come home from work the night of a failure and without alot of work, swap the boxes.

Here is how i back-up my FreeBSD server's: http://www.deathnet.id.au/docs/cd-rw-backup.shtml We are now doing the same backup strategy on DVD-RW. On top of this, i backup via ssh over internet to an off-site location about 15Km away. -- Cheers, Mick E-mail: admin-list@deathnet.id.au ¤°`°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤ DeathNet - www.deathnet.id.au ¤º°`°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤ From owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Mar 22 21:06:38 2005 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A963416A4CE for ; Tue, 22 Mar 2005 21:06:38 +0000 (GMT) Received: from mailrelay1.bredband.net (mailrelay1.bredband.net [195.54.107.81]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2EAF543D3F for ; Tue, 22 Mar 2005 21:06:37 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from goatse@Phreaker.net) Received: from [192.168.0.2] (c07363a.haes.bostream.se [217.215.25.182]) by mailrelay1.bredband.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 38DC850813A for ; Tue, 22 Mar 2005 22:06:57 +0100 (CET) Message-ID: <424088F4.5040100@Phreaker.net> Date: Tue, 22 Mar 2005 22:07:00 +0100 From: Anon User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040910 X-Accept-Language: en-us, en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Subject: PLEASE HELP PORT PROBLEMS X-BeenThere: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list Reply-To: goatse@Phreaker.net List-Id: Gathering place for new users List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 22 Mar 2005 21:06:38 -0000 I do have some problems with my ports/portupgrade and I donw know what!

I have local net behind of my freebsd, and I want to pass all packets from this subnet to Internet, except netbios (135-139 udp and tcp). So I think firewall rule can be like this add allow tcp from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/24 to any "{not 135-139}" (and one more for udp). Is it rule correct? P.S. I have to maintain default to deny firewall. -- Best regards, Vladimir From owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG Wed Mar 23 11:43:03 2005 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id AA7B816A4CE for ; Wed, 23 Mar 2005 11:43:03 +0000 (GMT) Received: from pastinakel.tue.nl (pastinakel.tue.nl [131.155.2.7]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 083CE43D2F for ; Wed, 23 Mar 2005 11:43:03 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from freeknossin@tiscali.nl) Received: by pastinakel.tue.nl (Postfix, from userid 40) id F06BE14BE73; Wed, 23 Mar 2005 12:43:01 +0100 (CET) Received: from pcwin502 (dyn414.win.tue.nl [131.155.70.117]) by pastinakel.tue.nl (Postfix) with ESMTP id 387B414BE4D; Wed, 23 Mar 2005 12:42:58 +0100 (CET) From: "Freek Nossin" To: , Date: Wed, 23 Mar 2005 12:42:58 +0100 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Microsoft Office Outlook, Build 11.0.6353 In-Reply-To: <4240AB52.4050901@Phreaker.net> X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2900.2180 Thread-Index: AcUvN4yw+XwnIgFtSnWnSj4WWNqgRwAZcFaQ Message-Id: <20050323114258.387B414BE4D@pastinakel.tue.nl> X-Spam-DCC: : pastinakel.tue.nl 1074; Body=1 Fuz1=1 Fuz2=1 X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.64 (2004-01-11) on pastinakel.tue.nl X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-1.9 required=6.3 tests=BAYES_00,MSGID_FROM_MTA_SHORT autolearn=no version=2.64 Subject: RE: [Fwd: Re: PLEASE HELP PORT PROBLEMS] X-BeenThere: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Gathering place for new users List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 23 Mar 2005 11:43:03 -0000 You could try to do #make index See "man ports" for details.

It can be done though... Just a note -- I've used all the Windows GUI CVS clients and the only one I'd recommend is Tortoise CVS. It's the no-contest cock of the walk in my opinion. http://www.tortoisecvs.org It doesn't come with a difference editor, but you can plug one in. I highly recommend Araxis Merge. It's not free, but it's worth paying for. I've never seen its equal. http://www.araxis.com/merge/index.html -- Danny From owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Mar 24 02:37:26 2005 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 51B0B16A4CE for ; Thu, 24 Mar 2005 02:37:26 +0000 (GMT) Received: from hotmail.com (bay20-f18.bay20.hotmail.com [64.4.54.107]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1FEF543D5A for ; Thu, 24 Mar 2005 02:37:26 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from lw_jklein@hotmail.com) Received: from mail pickup service by hotmail.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC; Wed, 23 Mar 2005 18:37:26 -0800 Message-ID: Received: from 24.107.17.126 by by20fd.bay20.hotmail.msn.com with HTTP; Thu, 24 Mar 2005 02:37:25 GMT X-Originating-IP: [24.107.17.126] X-Originating-Email: [lw_jklein@hotmail.com] X-Sender: lw_jklein@hotmail.com From: "Josh Klein" To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Date: Wed, 23 Mar 2005 21:37:25 -0500 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed X-OriginalArrivalTime: 24 Mar 2005 02:37:26.0062 (UTC) FILETIME=[6A4CACE0:01C5301A] Subject: Installing from CDROM - No Baton?

This list is for "advocacy and warm fuzzies about just getting started with freebsd." With that said. Here's a FAQ that mentions CD-Rom booting problems: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/install.html#NO-INSTALL-CDROM You may also want to try booting from the boot floppies, then select the CD-ROM for your install set. I have the Complete FreeBSD, and find it kind of lacking. The official handbook will probably answer things a bit more direct for you. Good Luck.

It can be controlled using both the keyboard and the mouse, supports drag-and-drop, allows you to bookmark a directory for easy access later, and is highly configurable. It also comes with its own image and text file viewer, yet is pretty fast. The only problem is that on FreeBSD they haven't updated the port to version 5.0.4, which contains an important feature: the ability to create links. You can still do that using the shell in XNC, but it's still nice to be able to do it within the file manager itself. If you can deal with that, though, then I think you'll like XNC. - Dave V.

I'm using Gnome 2.8 and gdm. I was logged in as root and when I logged out instead of being greeted by the gdm login screen I got an error "gdm has repeatedly failed to start X". Switching to ttys1 in the wane hope of getting a terminal login I saw another error saying "Getty getting too many repeats on ttys1 sleeping for 30 sec" or something like that. This is when I rebooted the system. When the system booted I got the following: "libexec libetid.4.so not found" type the full path to your shell or press Enter for /bin/sh. I then switched to /rescue/sh. After mounting / I discover that /lib was missing and /usr and /var were present but empty! No logs no nothing :( I then ran fsck -f and when it ran trough ad03e /usr and ad03f /var it reported tons of files present and in use. It didn't give any errors. But I can't see any of the files in these directories. Any Ideas how to proceed from here?

Once I boot from the CD, I lose the keyboard and, after the first menu times out, I see the main install menu but I can't make any selections. I've seen the instructions to "escape to loader prompt" and do > set hint.atkbd.0.flags="0x1" > boot However, I am unable to even escape to the loader prompt. The only thing I can do with my keyboard once I boot from the CD is toggle the num lock and caps lock. I haven't been able to find any reports of similar trouble on Google, so was wondering if anyone on this list has had trouble with a keyboard so early on in the install, and what, if anything, they did to fix it.

It has been my favorite way of mass-renaming files for a long time. It's faster to check and harder to get wrong than the equivalent echo/sed/mv stuff in sh(1).

I've discovered that the only BIOS setting that makes a difference is enabling/disabling USB legacy support. Disabling it makes my keyboard totally useless in that I can't even boot in to my existing Linux. Booting from the Freesbie live CD gives me a mouse, but no keyboard, so I guess I'm not totally SOL. Is there anyway to install FreeBSD 5.3 on a system that has no non-USB mouse/keyboard?

It is also available at http://people.freebsd.org/~sue/newbies/fak.html FreeBSD-Questions@FreeBSD.ORG is the place to send all questions about installing, configuring, running and using FreeBSD. All help requests are handled by FreeBSD-Questions, including newbies questions. It is particularly important to send all installation questions and answers to FreeBSD-Questions so that they only appear in one place. FreeBSD-Newbies is different. We don't ask for FreeBSD help or answer how-to questions. It is a discussion forum for newbies. FreeBSD-Newbies provides a place for new FreeBSD users to meet and covers any of the activities of newbies that are not already dealt with elsewhere. Examples include helping each other to learn more on our own, finding and using resources, problem solving techniques, how to seek help elsewhere, how to use mailing lists and which lists to use, general chat, making mistakes, boasting, sharing ideas, stories, moral (but not technical) support, and taking an active part in the FreeBSD community. We take our problems and support questions to freebsd-questions, and use freebsd-newbies to meet others who are doing the same things that we do as newbies. We can help people to use the FreeBSD mailing lists and resources, or to interact more productively with the broader FreeBSD community. These are not support questions, and not technical, so we deal with them here. Everyone can help with these new user orientation requests. One of the things we do together is learn more effective ways to find help when we need it. Here are some suggestions: When something doesn't work the way you expect 1. First look at the errata for your release of FreeBSD at http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/releases/ for the latest information and security advisories. 2. Search the Handbook, FAQ, and mail archives at http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/search/search.html 3. If you still have a question or problem, collect the output of `uname -a' and of any relevant program(s) and email your question to FreeBSD-questions@FreeBSD.ORG. Mailing lists When you have a problem that you can't solve by yourself, there's only one support mailing list and that's FreeBSD-questions@FreeBSD.ORG. FreeBSD-questions helps with installation and basic setup as well as more general and advanced questions. You don't have to actually join freebsd-questions before asking a question there. Replies to your question will normally be sent to you personally as well as to the list. Just make sure you have read and followed the guidelines for posting, because you might find them different to what you're used to. If you do subscribe to freebsd-questions you'll have the advantage of seeing all of the recent questions and their answers. Before you post to FreeBSD-questions, please read the guidelines at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html Many of the people who answer FreeBSD-questions are very knowledgeable, but they get frustrated when they get questions which are difficult to understand. http://www.lemis.com/email.html is worth reading too. If you're not sure that you can follow these guidelines, come back and ask the other newbies for help on how to post an effective question to the support mailing list. Maybe your question has been asked before. If you search the mailing list archives at http://www.freebsd.org/search/search.html first you might get the answer right away. It's always worth trying. Other mailing lists (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/eresources.html#ERESOURCES-CHARTERS) cover specialised areas and many are more developer-oriented. You'll need to read their charters carefully before participating, but it's probably a good idea to ask on either -newbies or -questions for advice about where to post a more specialised question. FreeBSD-announce is a very low volume read-only list for occasional announcements, such as notice of new releases, and the Really Quick Newsletter. It's worth subscribing to FreeBSD-announce too. Manuals You'll always be expected to show that you have made some effort to use the available documentation before asking for help. That's not always as easy as it sounds! If you know what documentation you need but can't locate it, send a brief query to FreeBSD-questions. If you don't know what you need, always have trouble finding it, or can't make any sense of it when you do, ask some patient newbies to steer you in the right direction. Anyone interested in writing or reviewing documentation for FreeBSD is encouraged to join the FreeBSD Documentation Project. Details are at http://www.freebsd.org/docproj/docproj.html Other resources A resource list is available at http://www.freebsd.org/projects/newbies.html to help new and inexperienced FreeBSD users to find relevant information quickly. It includes books, on line documents and tutorials, and links to web pages that other newbies have found useful for learning. If you have a suggestion for good material to be included, please write to freebsd-newbies and tell us about it. But I have seen people asking questions here! It is quite common for people to send the wrong kind of post to a mailing list. Because we're newbies it'll certainly happen here from time to time. The best thing to do if you see a message that doesn't belong on a list is to ignore it. There's always someone around whose job it is to sort these problems out privately. The posts to the lists go straight through, whatever their content. It is going to be confusing for a little while because we're all newbies so we all make mistakes. That's OK. One thing we're going to see a fair bit is people posting questions, believing they're doing the right thing by posting here as newbies, not realising how it works. If someone answers those questions the situation will snowball. There's nothing wrong with helping someone to redirect their question to freebsd-questions, but please do so gently. There's nothing wrong with the occasional mistake either. So all questions, requests for help, etc still go to freebsd-questions as usual. Ours is more of a discussion group, a place where newbies can relax with other newbies and focus more on our successes than on our temporary imperfection. We can talk about things here that are not allowed on freebsd-questions. We're also a bit freer to make the mistakes that we need to make in order to learn. _________________________________________________________________ Mailing list membership To Subscribe to FreeBSD-Newbies: Use the easy form at http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-newbies to subscribe to the FreeBSD-Newbies mailing list, or to change your subscription details if you are already a member.
