Very nice if you run Micxxxxft OS, but unsupported in FreeBSD. There may also be a SCSI version. The TR-4 is apparently different. The cartridges look identical, but the TR-3 says 1.6GB, while the TR-4 says 4GB. Plastic, with an aluminum plate on one side. The format is evidently multiple passes end to end, with the head moving a tiny bit between passes, just like the old tapes. >> Alas, over an ethernet from another FreeBSD 2.2.2 system using dump, >> it hiccuped continuously, getting just about 50KB/second. >> Is there any fix for that, like perhaps a humongous buffer?

Now, I want to add another C net, 194.19.2 with the same gateway as net .1. This new net cannot see the other net, so I need to setup a box to route between these 2 nets.. right? Do I need to setup a box with 2 NICS, one for each net? The way I prefer it, is to route between the nets, but stay with a single NIC. Is it enough to simply bind an IP address of the old net to the routing box's NIC, and it will then automatically forward packets?

Don't forget to enable gateway="YES" in rc.conf.

And yes, it holds around 4GB (uncompressed). I think it just has some huge number of tracks - something like 75. I get around 450 KB/sec. You have to use fairly large block sizes to keep it streaming (32KB works for me). Also, you get error messages from the kernel everytime you access the drive. This is fixed by changing a line in /sys/scsi/st.c (around line 436): (someone on the net posted this fix) scsi_prevent(sc_link, PR_PREVENT, 0); /* who cares if it fails? */ To: scsi_prevent(sc_link, PR_PREVENT, SCSI_SILENT | SCSI_ERR_OK); This just makes the kernel not complain about a command that the T4000s doesn't support. This "fix" doesn't make the drive work any different, it just keeps the kernel from printing the message. >> Alas, over an ethernet from another FreeBSD 2.2.2 system using dump, >> it hiccuped continuously, getting just about 50KB/second. I had a similar problem that turnd out to be the ethernet card I was using. It seemed to work fine, but if I did large ftp's etc it would slow to a crawl. I didn't notice the problem until I tried to do an rdump. Make sure you problem is not your network. Do some large ftp's or rcp's and make sure you get the transfer rates you expect.

The Perl version I'm using is 5.003 Is the DocumentRoot statement actually in httpd.conf or srm.conf? Also, to get the extensions to install, the directories and files of the webs you're installing on have to be owned by the user that the httpd runs as. This is normally "nobody", but it's hard to work as user "nobody" so I created a "www" account and let the httpd run as that, and chowned my htdocs directory to "www". This part is not necessary if you install the newer FP98-beta extensions, which seem to be as stable as the FP97 ones were, and the security options are more flexible. The last weirdness with the FP97 extensions involved the we80.cnf file. Every new virtual web I used with Frontpage, I had to copy it's config file (www.webname.com:80.cnf) to we80.cnf Once I had used the extensions on that virtual web, then it would continue to work even after copying a new virtual web config to we80.cnf (Don't think I need to do this with the FP98 extensions). -- Sam From owner-freebsd-isp Mon Oct 6 11:21:45 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) id LAA16722 for isp-outgoing; Mon, 6 Oct 1997 11:21:45 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-isp) Received: from wicked.eaznet.com ([206.62.254.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id LAA16717 for ; Mon, 6 Oct 1997 11:21:42 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from eddie@wicked.eaznet.com) Received: (from eddie@localhost) by wicked.eaznet.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) id LAA09672 for freebsd-isp@freebsd.org; Mon, 6 Oct 1997 11:23:10 -0700 (MST) Date: Mon, 6 Oct 1997 11:23:10 -0700 (MST) From: Eddie Fry Message-Id: <199710061823.LAA09672@wicked.eaznet.com> To: freebsd-isp@freebsd.org Subject: Rack-mount chassis Sender: owner-freebsd-isp@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I know this was discussed a few months ago, but now I can't find it.

Not necessarily. If you have two (or some power of two) adjacent network numbers that start on a power of two boundary, and if all the boxes on the network understand classless routing ({Free,Open,Net}BSD should all qualify, as does Solaris 2.6, and I imagine that Linux probably does as well), then the best solution is to just change the network mask to do supernetting. In this case, you would just need to do: ifconfig interface 194.19.{1,2}.xxx netmask 255.255.254.0 The next best solution is to use the route command. On your 194.19.1.* hosts, you would need to do: route add net 194.19.2.0 address-of-this-host-on-194.19.2 metric 0 and on your 194.19.2.* hosts, you would need to do: route add net 194.19.1.0 address-of-this-host-on-194.19.1 metric 0 I've never attempted this, but I think most TCP stacks support this. In this scheme I don't know if your 194.19.2.* hosts can use a 194.19.1.1 as a default gateway, so you may need to create an interface alias on the 194.19.2.* network for it and point the default route to that address. The advantage of either of these schemes is that each host on the network can communicate directly with any other host on the network. If you route between the networks, any packets sent from one logical network number to another will traverse the physical network twice. } > Do I need to setup a box with 2 NICS, one for each net?

Any particular reason that you think 2 NICs are better than 1? I can think of several reasons why 1 is better: Less hardware to purchase (NICs, hub ports or transceivers, cables) Fewer cables to hook up Fewer slots used Better performance (with two NICs, if both decide to transmit at the same time, you'll get a collision and both will back off for some random amount of time, but with one NIC the packets will be sent out back to back) --- Truck From owner-freebsd-isp Mon Oct 6 17:26:37 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) id RAA10666 for isp-outgoing; Mon, 6 Oct 1997 17:26:37 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-isp) Received: from netdev.comsys.com (netdev.comsys.com [192.94.236.100]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id RAA10661 for ; Mon, 6 Oct 1997 17:26:32 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from alex@comsys.com) Received: from neisse.comsys.com ([204.202.49.58]) by netdev.comsys.com (8.8.5/8.6.9) with SMTP id AAA07721; Tue, 7 Oct 1997 00:25:14 GMT From: "alex huppenthal" To: "Don Lewis" , "Daniel O'Callaghan" , "chrw" Cc: Subject: Re: routing between networks Date: Mon, 6 Oct 1997 17:23:45 -0700 Message-ID: <01bcd2b7$4601c320$3a31cacc@neisse.comsys.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.71.1712.3 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.71.1712.3 Sender: owner-freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk An approach we've used with success is to add another Class C address, by way of an alias to your router. We have non-contiguous IP numbers routed from our site in Aspen to the Internet. I setup our Cisco to reponse to both Class C's on its only ethernet port. If your router is a FreeBSD system, you might consider adding your second IP Class C (194.19.2) by way of alias. It works. Alternatively, add another NIC to your router, set its IP to your new Class C addr, and BSD should route between these networks with no further configuration.

Up until now, we have been running a single server to handle mail, http, and shell accounts. Not the greatest way to do it, but it worked. Now we have a need to split services up. We are planning on running NIS, but we haven't gotten that up and running yet. THe big question is how to separate the mail and shell servers up and have mail go to the correct server. It should be a simple change in the MX records, I think, but this is how we are currently set up, and I was wondering if I could get some ideas thrown my way: tbe.net points to our one machine. When someone mails user@tbe.net, it isn't a problem because the one machine handles it. Now the problem arises if we have mail.tbe.net as one machine and tbe.net as another. If someone mails to user@tbe.net, it will be going to the shell box, not the mail server, but if we set up tbe.net to be the mail server, the mail will come in fine, but anyone who telnets into tbe.net will get the mail server, and there will be no home directories set up there. How do we separate the two machines, while having mail delivered to user@tbe.net rather than having everyone change their email address to reflect a change to user@mail.tbe.net or whatever. (if at all possible) I was thinking a simple MX change as this: tbe.net. IN A 208.208.122.15 localhost.tbe.net. IN A 127.0.0.1 electric.tbe.met. IN A 208.208.122.10 flash.tbe.net. IN A 208.208.122.15 ; ;aliases ; www.tbe.net. IN CNAME flash.tbe.net. pop3.tbe.net. IN CNAME electric.tbe.net. mail.tbe.net. IN CNAME electric.tbe.net. ; ; Mail exchange info ; tbe.net. IN MX 0 electric.tbe.net. tbe.net. IN MX 5 flash.tbe.net. tbe.net. IN MX 10 signals.net. Theoretically, this should work. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

How does one go about intentionally ending an active TCP connection to a server? This seemed easy at first when I thought about it. All I have to do is kill the daemon entertainng that active TCP connection. For example, killing the stand alone server daemon telnetd would disconnect all active telnet sessions or if I just want to end one telnet session, all I have to do again is kill the specific telnet daemon servicing that specific telnet session. In short, just kill the appropriate daemon for the service. However, what if there exist only one stand alone server daemon that does not fork another process to service a TCP connection? Example is the daemon IRCD. I do not see any forked IRCD process to handle an IRC connection when I do a ps -ax. I was able to see the active TCP connections to IRCD using the command netstat -an. Ending a telnet session was easy because I could just kill the telnetd process running but for this one there is no daemon except for an entry in the table produced by doing a netstat -an. To rephrase the question, How does one intentionally end a TCP connection that does not have a corresponding forked server process? or technically, How do I delete a TCP entry in the table produced by a netstat -an ? Thank you in advance. -- rick From owner-freebsd-isp Wed Oct 8 19:07:07 1997 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) id TAA00546 for isp-outgoing; Wed, 8 Oct 1997 19:07:07 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-isp) Received: from lightning.tbe.net (qmailr@lightning.tbe.net [208.208.122.6]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id TAA00540 for ; Wed, 8 Oct 1997 19:07:02 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from gary@lightning.tbe.net) Received: (qmail 847 invoked by uid 1010); 9 Oct 1997 01:58:05 -0000 Date: Wed, 8 Oct 1997 21:58:04 -0400 (EDT) From: "Gary D.

I will change its files as necessary though. Hopefully having the dedicated mail server will relieve any congestion. We went a bit overkill for a mail server anyway, a Cyrix 200+ with 32MB RAM, 2 Gig /var partition, for a server that pushes 3000 messages on its best day. The other option for queuing is to have machines on other domains do it for us. We have a few domains we can use instead of using tbe machines, as those machines would definately queue rather than try to deliver the mail.

Hi, thanks a lot. When I login as root and enter the command limit openfiles unlimited the error message goes away. But how can I auto do that when my host turns up? Now, the host is running with 64M memory, how can I increase the maxinum openfiles limited? recompile the kernel and increase the MAXUSERS to a larger num?

Try fprintf(stderr,"Error opening logfile %s (%d)", fname, errno); Which will tell you why the open failed and on what file. The error number will appear in-between the parenthesis, simple type ; grep /usr/include/errno.h to get a textual description of the error. You can go further by (depending on OS) using fprintf(stderr,"Error %s (%s)", fname, sys_errlist[errno]); It is the windows programmers desease to display error messages without any context, rendering them totally useless. Once you know exactly what the error is then you can remedy it, rather than trying lots of things inthe dark hoping one of them is going to fix it. Sorry if it seems like I'm having a go at you but I have to use a lot of PC applications and it drives me up the wall when they pop up error boxes that give no helpful information whatsoever. > > Is there a maximum file descriptors limited?

Not if the domain is *not* in your Cw or sendmail.cw. The secondary will accept mail, do an MX lookup and find that there is a higher priority mail server and spool the mail for that machine. In other words, if you don't go out of your way to tell the secondary that it should be performing local delivery, it won't.

Firstly, set up your second machine to handle mail, and install antispam relaying while you are at it (always good practice) (see www.sendmail.org). With the antispamrelay stuff you need to define which domains are allowed to be spooled on your machine, so add netrail.net to localdomains file. In the DNS add another MX record to netrail.net stating: IN MX 50 smtp-2 Then if smtp-1.netrail.net is down, all mail will be spooled on smtp-2. smtp-2 will process its queue every so often ( determined by the -q argument to sendmail) and when it does, it will deliver the mail to smtp-1.

So far, as clients need e-mail forwarding, we simply enter their forwarding rules into /etc/virtusertable. However, as we have more sites to manage now, this becomes a bit cumbersome. Here is what I am looking to do: Have each virtual web site associated with a user. So say, joe has www.schmoe.com. Then all e-mail to schmoe.com will be directed to joe via virtusertable. Now, I want to create a file in ~joe (joe's home dir) and have it called .redirect. I want joe to be able to edit the file and have it look similar to virtusertable, but have him be able to forward his own e-mail right out of this file like this. All e-mail to anyone@schmoe.com first goes to joe. Now, joe has this in his redirect file default@schmoe.com joeschmoe@awl.com mike@schmoe.com mike@somehost.com joe@schmoe.com joe I am looking to allow everyone to manage their own aliases. Now, the two ways I figured I could do this were: 1) Have a daemon that checks .redirect files and when they are modified, it recreates /etc/virtusertable and re-makes the database. I would rather not go this route as I like pre-emptive options more. 2) Have procmail or something like that be able to read the forwards out of the .redirect files, then have joe's .forward file forward to a program which would act upon the .redirect file. I am looking for anyone who could help me accomplish this would coding (I like sollutions using pre-existing tools). Thanks in advance for any help that can be offered.

This is because localmail runs as root and is not bound by the quotas. We had to hack our own version of localmail to explicitly check the quota. Also, sendmail had to be hacked to return a "box full" error.

Just put in the address that the user wants to forward email to. Sendmail does the rest. The .forward file sits in the users home directory and is editable by him.

I've seen a couple of problems recently where people have been sent enormous mail messages (> 10 MB). mail.local makes a temporary copy of the message in /tmp, which can often overflow under these circumstances.

The dump happens in endpoint.c setSigHandler() when a signal() call returns failure. I don't know why it does, but using sigaction() instead works around the problem (example below).

As Marco said it is really easy to set up such that one user can be associated with a hosted domain and he/she can add and remove users in that domain without having to go through the System Administrator.

(I think :) ). Should the INN port run "out of the box" ? It seems to boot ok, no error message, and 12183 p0 I 0:00.00 /bin/sh /usr/local/etc/rc.news 12184 p0 I 0:00.10 /bin/sh /usr/local/news/bin/innwatch are running. Nothing is generated in the log files(/var/log/news). I cannot telnet into the nntp port 119, I get connection refused immedialty. Im doing this from the same machine it is running on, and have added additional hosts to nnrp.access with the same result. I have access to our companys News server, which I obviosuly didnt configure. It doesnt look very difficult to at least get something up and running...
