This is inherent to the virus scanning itself, and cannot reliably prevented. One customer of us once told me that his virus scanner `detected' a virus in /sbin/init. :-) >>Fix: > Modify code fragment to mismatch virus def on executable in bootmanager. Rather, tell the vendor of your virus scanner to increase the amount of data they are using to check the virus signature. Sorry, it's not a viable option for us to change the bootblocks to not incidentally match what virus scanner XYZ is using to check for virus ABC. What to do if this change makes the virus scanner misdetect it as something else? No, thanks. Besides, you didn't even tell us _what_ exactly the signature might be. How do you expect us to know? We don't have your virus scanner (and i'm not like buying it just for you -- i don't have any DOS files at all, so i don't need a virus scanner). > Or scan for possible virus in distribution And then? Besides(2), this would require bundling of a virus scanner product which is usually payware. We can guarantee you that there are no viruses in the files we are creating, and in order to check whether the files remained untouched, you can always match them against the MD5 checksums we are providing. Sorry to say, but that's really all we can do for this matter. p.s.: Yes, we should adopt a more recent version of booteasy anyway, for other reasons. This might or might not solve your problem. You can also try os-bs (should be found in the tools/ directory), maybe this doesn't check out as a pseudo-virus in your scanner... -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-) From owner-freebsd-bugs Thu Jan 1 07:51:26 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) id HAA17426 for bugs-outgoing; Thu, 1 Jan 1998 07:51:26 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-bugs) Received: from sax.sax.de (sax.sax.de [193.175.26.33]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id HAA17419 for ; Thu, 1 Jan 1998 07:51:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from j@uriah.heep.sax.de) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by sax.sax.de (8.8.8/8.8.8) with UUCP id QAA24529; Thu, 1 Jan 1998 16:51:17 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from j@uriah.heep.sax.de) Received: (from j@localhost) by uriah.heep.sax.de (8.8.8/8.8.5) id QAA16600; Thu, 1 Jan 1998 16:27:34 +0100 (MET) Date: Thu, 1 Jan 1998 16:27:34 +0100 (MET) Message-Id: <199801011527.QAA16600@uriah.heep.sax.de> Mime-Version: 1.0 X-Newsreader: knews 0.9.8 Reply-To: joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de (Joerg Wunsch) Organization: Private BSD site, Dresden X-Phone: +49-351-2012 669 X-PGP-Fingerprint: DC 47 E6 E4 FF A6 E9 8F 93 21 E0 7D F9 12 D6 4E References: <199712270052.RAA06393@smtp02.primenet.com> In-Reply-To: <199712270052.RAA06393@smtp02.primenet.com> From: j@uriah.heep.sax.de (J Wunsch) Subject: Re: FreeBSD CRASHED MY COMPUTER--PLEASE RESPOND ASAP IF POSSIBLE...

Well, i can read what you wrote, but i'm afraid noone of us has the slightest imagination of what actually happened.

Dumping some sectors of zero's to the front of the disk would have sufficed. Anyway, this somewhat sounds like a problem with the disk geometry being misdetected by FreeBSD, for whatever reason. You didn't tell us what disk and geometries you were using, and what geometry sysinstall has detected, nor whether you are using anything like a `disk manager' (e.g. to make disks > 504 MB accessible on older BIOSes for DOS).

I would suggest (and I'm willing to do it) adding the ability to use SIOCSIFPOINTOPOINT and SIOCGIFPOINTOPOINT on sl* ppp* and tun*. The default is that these interfaces are pointopoint, but you can change that by issuing the `S' ioctl. Additionally, I'd change ifconfig so that it doesn't display a netmask & broadcast address when the POINTOPOINT flag is set. I can then implement the ability to make these interfaces non-pointopoint in their respective programs - if configured that way. None of the existing code would break as the defaults are the same.

Yeah, this port's #include list is very broken. All of these (incompatible?) headers that it includes need a certain order and shuffling them around fixes one compiler error and generates another.

I mean in the sense that the client cannot broadcast on the network at the other end of the pointopoint link, or can it ? I guess you could set up a static route for the broadcast address.

Perhaps IFF_POINTOPOINT should be settable while the interface is down only. In the `tun' case (I'm not sure about pppX & slX) it could be done at the ioctl(TUNSIFINFO) stage - the `dummy' part of the struct tuninfo could be changed to specify the interface flags. But this would break existing code that never initialises `dummy' to zero (which, it really should, although ppp doesn't :-(). OpenBSD already has this requirement.

Why? After all, this interface _is_ point-to-point. Allowing to change this from userland is stupid. Maybe allowing it for tunX would make sense under some circumstances, but running PPP over it really mandates it to have IFF_POINTOPOINT set. ProxyARP itself is already a big hack i would discourage except of a few cases. Don't give the people the feeling they could solve all their problems by proxyarping half of the Internet. :) We should rather encourage people in setting up a clean routing than in setting up hack^2's. (Btw., the worst i've seen so far is HP's internal network. This is just one big hack, at least the part i've seen.) -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-) From owner-freebsd-bugs Thu Jan 1 11:56:17 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) id LAA04192 for bugs-outgoing; Thu, 1 Jan 1998 11:56:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-bugs) Received: (from alex@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) id LAA04168; Thu, 1 Jan 1998 11:56:06 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from alex) Date: Thu, 1 Jan 1998 11:56:06 -0800 (PST) From: Alex Nash Message-Id: <199801011956.LAA04168@hub.freebsd.org> To: mikk0022@maroon.tc.umn.edu, alex, freebsd-bugs Subject: Re: misc/4908 Sender: owner-freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Synopsis: pthread_cond_wait doesn't State-Changed-From-To: analyzed-closed State-Changed-By: alex State-Changed-When: Thu Jan 1 11:55:03 PST 1998 State-Changed-Why: No reply from submitter and problem cannot be duplicated.

While I agree that the net mask makes no sense on a point-to-point link, many people don't. My ISP (Telstra) asks me to set a net mask of 0xffffffc0 on my link. I wonder why. If the ifconfig command doesn't show the net mask, it can cause a lot of confusion (even more than exists currently). >> Routes to the remote end apart from the implied host route seem to be >> dangerous to me, and they break the current behaviour (i.e. could >> cause surprises for people who are used to how it's done now). I don't know what you mean here (I didn't see the original message). In almost every case, you have a route to the remote end, usually a default route. I'm guessing that you mean something else. >> It's not always that the IP address of the remote end is indeed >> identical with the remote network address. Ah. You're thinking about implied routes to the rest of the address space in which the remote end is located? Indeed. Telstra insists that I use one of their addresses at this end of the link. There's no other Telstra address here. Presumably *they* don't use an 0xffffffc0 net mask on this link :-) Greg From owner-freebsd-bugs Thu Jan 1 22:10:06 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) id WAA11049 for bugs-outgoing; Thu, 1 Jan 1998 22:10:06 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-bugs) Received: (from gnats@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) id WAA11035; Thu, 1 Jan 1998 22:10:01 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gnats) Resent-Date: Thu, 1 Jan 1998 22:10:01 -0800 (PST) Resent-Message-Id: <199801020610.WAA11035@hub.freebsd.org> Resent-From: gnats (GNATS Management) Resent-To: freebsd-bugs Resent-Reply-To: FreeBSD-gnats@FreeBSD.ORG, toasty@dragondata.com Received: from home.dragondata.com (root@home.dragondata.com [204.137.237.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id WAA10827 for ; Thu, 1 Jan 1998 22:05:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from toasty@home.dragondata.com) Received: (from root@localhost) by home.dragondata.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) id AAA06748; Fri, 2 Jan 1998 00:05:25 -0600 (CST) Message-Id: <199801020605.AAA06748@home.dragondata.com> Date: Fri, 2 Jan 1998 00:05:25 -0600 (CST) From: toasty@dragondata.com Reply-To: toasty@dragondata.com To: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.ORG X-Send-Pr-Version: 3.2 Subject: bin/5408: /usr/sbin/adduser gives wrong error message Sender: owner-freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk >Number: 5408 >Category: bin >Synopsis: /usr/sbin/adduser gives wrong error message >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-bugs >State: open >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Thu Jan 1 22:10:00 PST 1998 >Last-Modified: >Originator: Kevin Day >Organization: DragonData >Release: FreeBSD 2.2.1-RELEASE i386 >Environment: /usr/sbin/adduser on any FreeBSD system >Description: adduser gives an incorrect response when a blank line is entered when it is expecting a username. >How-To-Repeat: Run adduser and press ENTER instead of typing a username >Fix: --- adduser Thu Jan 1 23:54:33 1998 +++ adduser.new Fri Jan 2 00:00:39 1998 @@ -308,7 +308,11 @@ while(1) { $name = &confirm_list("Enter username", 1, "A-Za-z0-9_", ""); + if ($name eq "A-Za-z0-9_") { + warn "Invalid username\a\n"; + next; + } if (length($name) > 8) { warn "Username is longer than 8 chars\a\n"; next; >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: From owner-freebsd-bugs Thu Jan 1 23:20:20 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) id XAA15043 for bugs-outgoing; Thu, 1 Jan 1998 23:20:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-bugs) Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (freefall.FreeBSD.ORG [204.216.27.21]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id XAA15034; Thu, 1 Jan 1998 23:20:12 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from danny@FreeBSD.org) From: "Daniel O'Callaghan" Received: (from danny@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.6/8.8.5) id XAA11077; Thu, 1 Jan 1998 23:15:19 -0800 (PST) Date: Thu, 1 Jan 1998 23:15:19 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <199801020715.XAA11077@freefall.freebsd.org> To: cj@accom.com, danny@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.ORG, danny@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: bin/5283 Sender: owner-freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Synopsis: Tar man page does not match program State-Changed-From-To: open-analyzed State-Changed-By: danny State-Changed-When: Thu Jan 1 23:12:55 PST 1998 State-Changed-Why: I've just applied an independently submitted patch.

I'm guessing that you mean something else. It's too much out of context that i remember myself. I think my remark was about other _automatically_ installed routes (at ifconfig time).

This was located in /usr/libexec/getty, and is associated with the gettytab :ac and :ic "chat scripts". See man gettytab for the functionality of these scripts. Here's the problem: A gettytab entry of: # TNC entry, create 97.12.31 by K. McQuiggin. tnc|tnc.1200|1200-baud TNC:\ :ac=*** HI\sfrom\sgettytab\r:\ :de=1:\ :ct=1000:\ :np:sp#1200:\ should wait on the associated /etc/ttys line: ttyd1 "/usr/libexec/getty tnc.1200" unknown on secure for the string "***", then reply with the string "HI from gettytab" prior to displaying the login: prompt. Here's what actually was produced: ("***" is typed, not echoed) HI sfro \sgettytab FreeBSD (sputnik.rfnet.sfu.ca) (ttyd1) login: Note how the quoted spaces ("\s" according to man gettytab) are not interpreted properly. The correct result should appear as: HI from gettytab FreeBSD etc... Obviously there is something wrong with the way that these literal characters are being interpreted! This was found to be a problem for all of the escaped special characters noted in the man page. I looked at the source code and noted the following statements starting at line 224 of /usr/src/libexec/getty/chat.c: } else { /* copy standard character */ *r++ == *q; } This "==" looked incorrect as an assignment and I changed it to: } else { /* copy standard character */ *r++ = *q; } And now the :ac output is correct: ("***" is typed, not echoed) HI from gettytab FreeBSD (sputnik.rfnet.sfu.ca) (ttyd1) login: I have tested the other backslashed special characters and this looks to be the fix. I suggest that this fix should be added to the getty source for the next release, if it hasn't been changed already! I have located another problem with the gettytab entries for these characters which I will report separately. In a nutshell someone is pre-parsing the :ac and :ic scripts prior to them getting to chat.c, so that \s for example is being replaced by just s prior to chat.c seeing the input string. I got around this by double backslashing the chars in gettytab: HI\\sfrom\\sgettytab This too is no to the spec and I'll see if I can find out what's going wrong and report it. Please reply to me via email, I read freebsd-questions infrequently as there's too much volume and my other mail gets lost in the noise! I've used FreeBSD for about 3 years, it's fantastic, keep up the good work!

The nt->net element gets set by either getnetbyname(3) or inet_network(3). getnetbyname(3) returns its data in host byte order while all other routines that return network addresses (including inet_network(3)) return network addresses in network byte order. Since the code only tests equality of the addresses and doesn't depend on the byte order used, it is sufficient to make sure that only one byte order is used to store the addresses. Otherwise the htonl() and ntohl() macros would need to be used all over the code. - -- Joe Traister | He had that rare weird electricity about him -- that traister@gate.net | extremely wild and heavy presence that you only see in CyberGate SysAdmin | a person who has abandoned all hope of ever behaving finger for PGP key | "normally." -- Hunter S.

To get commit access generally takes getting someone from core to recommend that it be granted to you. Meanwhile if you (or anybody else) would like to help close some PRs, please don't hesitate to send me a line or two. We can use all the help we can get. :) Thanks, Steve > Doug White | University of Oregon > Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | Residence Networking Assistant > http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | Computer Science Major From owner-freebsd-bugs Sat Jan 3 19:08:37 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) id TAA23874 for bugs-outgoing; Sat, 3 Jan 1998 19:08:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-bugs) Received: (from steve@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.7/8.8.7) id TAA23854; Sat, 3 Jan 1998 19:08:31 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from steve) Date: Sat, 3 Jan 1998 19:08:31 -0800 (PST) From: Steve Price Message-Id: <199801040308.TAA23854@hub.freebsd.org> To: gsutter@pobox.com, steve, freebsd-bugs Subject: Re: misc/4938 Sender: owner-freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Synopsis: addgroup script calls for tclsh; tcl not intalled!

Just log into freefall and use edit-pr to tweak their states in whichever ways seem appropriate. If you can address and close the PR, all the better.

It was getting harder and harder to keep apache and sysinstall in sync. Not only was the name of the package changing all the time (which had to be hardcoded into sysinstall) but the layout of the config files was also a moving target. I got sick of trying to maintain this dependency. 2. This should never have gone into sysinstall in the first place as having sysinstall know intimate details of various package installations is about as wrong as it gets. The Apache package merely needs to grow some self-configuration smarts so that when you either add it from sysinstall *or later on*, it brings up the same basic config dialogs that sysinstall used to. This isn't done yet, but it's the way to go.

I had a discussion about this with a bloke here in Adelaide a couple of months ago. He runs a large ISP, and he came up with some plausible reason, but unfortunately I've forgotten the details. It had to do with Microslop: they use broadcasts a lot, and this would seem to indicate that they expected broadcasts on a /26 subnet, or at least were prepared to respond to them. >>>> Routes to the remote end apart from the implied host route seem to be >>>> dangerous to me, and they break the current behaviour (i.e. could >>>> cause surprises for people who are used to how it's done now). >> >> I don't know what you mean here (I didn't see the original message). >> In almost every case, you have a route to the remote end, usually a >> default route.

It sounds like you're saying that PPP shouldn't be allowed to set the default route automatically when the link comes up. Say that's not what you mean. Greg
