For some time now we have been working on developing a Client email program that contains security features never before available. In order for us to make this program the best that it can possibly be, we ask your assistance by taking a few minutes to answer these important questions for us. Which of the following functions do you consider to be important or essential for an email program? For questions 1-7, please rate 1-5. (1 being the least important and 5 being most important). A client email program should have: Question 1: The ability to prevent certain attachments that may possibly be carrying a virus. (This allows you to accept only safe attachments) Importance Rating______ Question 2: Automatic searching for file attachments that have been renamed or tampered with. (Virus senders can rename vbs files to txt files hoping you will open them) Importance Rating______ Question 3: The ability to limit the size of incoming email and attachments. (Reduce time wasted downloading large files, graphics, audio files, jokes, etc.) Importance Rating______ Question 4: The ability to select the size of outgoing emails and attachments. (Saves bandwidth as large files are roughly doubled when transferred by email). Importance Rating______ Question 5: An encrypted Address Book. (This will stop worm viruses sending copies of itself to your clients and/or friends). Importance Rating______ Question 6: The ability to restrict the number of attachments and size of attachments sent or received. And the ability to the restrict types of attachments received. (Gives control to employers and eliminate privacy issues arising). Importance Rating______ Question 7: A viewable log file containing information such as; email deleted without being opened, when email was downloaded, when email was read (opened), if email was forwarded or replied to etc. (Mail management and accountability at a glance) Importance Rating______ Question 8: Has your company been the victim of a computer virus attack? Yes/No ________ Question 9: If yes to question 8, approximately how many hours did it take to fix the problem? Hours ________ Question 10: If an email program was developed with the above security features, would you be interested in trialing a free demonstration version? Yes/No ________ Question 11: What percentage of email traffic is personal email? __________% We sincerely thank you for your time in answering these important questions for us.

By the way, I noticed that Linux does not map anything in the 3GB-4GB PCI address range for the tsunami core-logic, unlike FreeBSD that seems to map the 2nd GB of main memory in this range. Some comments tells that the CYPRESS south bridge may respond to some address withing the 3GB-4GB PCI range. Note that this should not make differences for memory size not larger than 1 GB. Probably not related with the problem but interesting difference, IMO. Gerard.

I saw that comment before extending the direct map & it concerned me. But now I'm not sure that I believe the comment as the Compaq TestDrive folks have been running a 2GB XP1000 for months. In any case, I don't think the NCR/Symbios problem is related as the NCR/Symbios problem predates the extension of the direct map to cover machines with 2GB of memory. I'm hoping that the problems with having NCR/Symbios chips on the second hose will disappear when Doug's cleaner handling of multiple-hose alphas is committed.

The UP1000 is an ATX mainboard using a 21264a CPU in a Slot B module. It is normally housed in an ATX enclosure. It is very PC-like in that it has an AMD-751 ('Irongate') core logic chipset and an AGP slot. XFree86 works well with the supplied Permedia-2 based AGP graphics card. I'm happy to report that it feels quite fast, the fastest machine I've sat in front of, as a matter of fact.

Also, some video cards will not work as console devices because the SRM console's x86 emulator is incapable of running their BIOSes. I've found that Permedia & Matrox cards work well..

Working with Andrew Miklic's patches, I've created diffs to 4.0-RELEASE which add support for the parallel port. I've also written the requisite ppc_smc37c935_detect routine for those of us with Super I/O chips (EB/PC164, etc.), so we can use ECP/EPP. Even the parallel port ZIP drive works! I'm using mine right now. The diffs include a patch to the GENERIC kernel config to enable the ppc driver. This should work on all alphas. If you have the Super I/O chip in your machine, add the option PPC_PROBE_CHIPSET to your kernel config, and be sure to specify the io port and flags to the "ppc" driver line. My detect routine will tell the Super I/O chip to relocate the parallel port to the io address you specify, and set the mode according to the flags (if there are any). The default setting is port 0x3bc in centronics compatible mode, but using my Super I/O support you can relocate it to 0x378 and take advantage of EPP or ECP mode. The man page for ppc breaks down what the flags are. To get the vpo zip drive driver working, I'm using: device ppc0 at isa? port 0x378 irq 7 flags 0x17 for EPP 1.7 + PS2 + NIBBLE mode. Of course you'll also need to enable scsi support. You'll also want to enable the scsi pass device, so you can use camcontrol to eject zip disks.

No. It is not. You have a Miata with the extra-buggy pyxis chipset & the SRM console is attempting to prevent you from blowing your foot off. The SRM console maintains a list of PCI cards whose Tru64 device drivers are known not to do DMA reads across page bounaries. The powerstorm card is apparently not in that list, so the SRM console won't let you boot with an unknown card in slots 4 or 5 (the other 3 slots are behind a ppb which breaks up DMAs). Since you don't care about this, you should be able to do: >>> set pci_device_override -1 Then you should be able to boot with the powerstorm in whatever slot you like. BTW, I'm typing this on a 433a with a Powerstorm 4D10 sitting in slot 5. running FreeBSD/alpha & XF86 3.3.6 of course ;-) Cheers, Drew ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Andrew Gallatin, Sr Systems Programmer http://www.cs.duke.edu/~gallatin Duke University Email: gallatin@cs.duke.edu Department of Computer Science Phone: (919) 660-6590 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-alpha Tue Jun 20 17:58:34 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-alpha@freebsd.org Received: from ripsport.aist.go.jp (ripsport.aist.go.jp [150.29.251.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DBDE437B767 for ; Tue, 20 Jun 2000 17:58:30 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ynishimura@home.nimc.go.jp) Received: from rpsmtp1.aist.go.jp (rpsmtp1.aist.go.jp [150.29.254.30]) by ripsport.aist.go.jp (8.9.3/3.7W) with ESMTP id JAA06356; Wed, 21 Jun 2000 09:58:29 +0900 (JST) From: ynishimura@home.nimc.go.jp Received: from cmce2.nimc.go.jp (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by rpsmtp1.aist.go.jp (8.9.3/3.7W) with ESMTP id JAA07374; Wed, 21 Jun 2000 09:58:28 +0900 (JST) Received: from cmnotesx.nimc.go.jp ([150.29.144.81]) by cmce2.nimc.go.jp with SMTP (Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service Version 5.5.2448.0) id NGWRTC1R; Wed, 21 Jun 2000 10:00:16 +0900 Received: by cmnotesx.nimc.go.jp(Lotus SMTP MTA v4.6.3 (733.2 10-16-1998)) id 49256905.00057E10 ; Wed, 21 Jun 2000 09:59:59 +0900 X-Lotus-FromDomain: AIST To: Andrew Gallatin Cc: Freebsd-alpha@freebsd.org Message-ID: <49256905.00057B71.00@cmnotesx.nimc.go.jp> Date: Wed, 21 Jun 2000 09:59:42 +0900 Subject: Re: SRM of Digital personal workstation can only works just with matrox ?

According to the output messages the SCRIPTS processor jumped at initialisation to a location that was filled with DWORD 0. This instruction (MOVE 0 byte) is never used by the driver and according to=20 the manual triggers an ILLEGAL INSTRUCTION condition. Reason could be: 1) The BUS physical address (as seen from CPU) used by the driver to download SCRIPTS to on-chip RAM was wrong. OR 2) memcpy_toio() failed copying SCRIPTS to the on-chip SRAM. 3) The BUS physical addresses (as seen from PCI BUS), the SCRIPTS processor is provided with, are wrong. Given that the driver succeeded initialisations and seems to successfully= =20 read chip IO registers using MMIO, the actual reason of the breakage is=20 probably not (1) and (2) does not seem to me a good culprit :). Regarding possible reason (3), the SCRIPTS processor fetches instructions from on-chip RAM using internal path (not using PCI external cycles). For this to work, the BAR that is supposed to contain the address of=20 the on-chip RAM must match the BUS physical address of the on-chip RAM=20 as seen from the BUS. If for some reason BUS physical addresses ad seen from CPU differs from BUS physical address as seen from the PCI BUS, and the BAR contains the former address value, then the current driver code will not work. A work-around could consist in using main memory for SCRIPTS instead of on-chip RAM. G=E9rard.

Right now we steal the upper bit(s) of the port or address passed down to the chipset's inX/outX readX/writeX functions to allow drivers to use inX/outX and readX/writeX. This is done so as to give hints to the lowlevel chipset code as to which hose the address in question is on. This hackery will go away when the previously mentioned changes to the alpha pci code happen. (Those changes are why Doug wanted to get all important drivers using busspace). Thanks for explaining it! I've long suspected that something like this was going on but never had the time to really understand either ncr driver well enough to figure it out for myself.

I'm sorry about any confusion that Matt Dillon has caused. I told him in person that he shouldn't worry about the mutex implementation since I already had some working mutex code which could be reused to implement the BSD/OS 5.0 style mutex. This somehow mutated into "I'll break the alpha port until further notice". I will be working on the alpha SMP code, both old-style and new-style. -- Doug Rabson Mail: dfr@nlsystems.com Nonlinear Systems Ltd.

The pointer uap points to arguments that are in user space. Coincidentally on some platforms or implementations you can refer to them directly in the part of the kernel that is in a direct call path from a syscall. But this is not guaranteed. In fact, the PDP-11/{45,70} implementation of Unix had user and kernel in completely different address spaces that required the use of special instructions to copy bytes between them (e.g., MFPD (move from previous data space)). If you want to print fname in the kernel, what function do you want to use to assist in printing it?
