Hello everybody.
I've been lurking here for a while picking up useful tips. I installed fbsd
a couple of months ago and have just about everything running ok, but there
are two things I still can't get to work properly.
1: identd server on my freebsd box. I have both my computers, one with fbsd
and one with windows, behind a D-link Dl-704 ADSL router. I have forwarded
port 113 to my bsd box as I'd like to run an identd server on it. I've
tried a number of different servers with no luck. Right now I'm running the
internal one, with a "fake" output set so it will reply the chosen username
and systemname no matter what. I can telnet to port 113 of the box and I
get a connect. As soon as type something I get the message
0 , 0 : ERROR : X-INVALID-REQUEST
Connection closed by foreign host.
I don't really know if this message is supposed to be there or if something
is wrong. Anyhow, even though I can connect to port 113 identd does not
work (irc still displays my nick with a ~ in front of my "ident", and I get
a "no response from identd server" when i try to connect.)
This might be far fetched but does anyone have any advice? I read somewhere
midentd was recommended but I cant find a freebsd build...
2: My logitech usb mouse. I've tried lots of different solutions but I cant
find a good one anywhere. I got it "semi" working. I can use three
mousebuttons and move the pointer. I would also like to be able to use at
least the wheel. In addition the mousepointer stops responding very often
and I have to click a button to get it to respond again. This goes for both
console and X.
Thanks for any help you can give!
- Aslak
