-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Let me thank you folks in advance for helping me out. I've just upgraded the OS and just installed another ethernet card and turned on natd, almost exactly as the instructions say. Now I get an unusual occurence. Everything associated with email very slow. Sending email is slow, even mailq is slow: $ time mailq /var/spool/mqueue is empty real 1m20.417s user 0m0.059s sys 0m0.012s Specifics: $ uname -a FreeBSD dsl-146-127.resnet.purdue.edu 4.5-RC FreeBSD 4.5-RC #0: Thu Jan 17 06:38:45 EST 2002 dedrick@dsl-146-127.resnet.purdue.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/DSL-146-127-2 i386 /etc/rc.local: /usr/sbin/sshd /usr/sbin/lpd /usr/sbin/lptcontrol -p /usr/sbin/rndcontrol -q -s 2 -s 3 -s 1 /sbin/ifconfig dc0 192.168.0.1 media 100baseTX /sbin/ipfw -f flush /sbin/ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via ep0 /sbin/ipfw add pass all from any to any /sbin/natd -interface ep0 /usr/local/apache/bin/httpsdctl start Unfortunately the card dc0 has some sort of autosensor that switches between different media. I can't get it to work unless I manually tell it which media to use, hence dc0, the firewall and natd are all configured as lines in /etc/rc.local. $ ifconfig dc0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::2a0:ccff:fedb:a8a8%dc0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255 ether 00:a0:cc:db:a8:a8 media: Ethernet 100baseTX status: active lp0: flags=8810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 ep0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 128.211.146.127 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 128.211.146.255 inet6 fe80::260:8ff:fe10:e6e5%ep0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3 ether 00:60:08:10:e6:e5 media: Ethernet 10baseT/UTP lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x4 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 faith0: flags=8002<BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 As I said before, most everything seems to be working fine, 'cept for really slow mail related processes. Also, on a probably unrelated note, when I plug dc0 into a switch, the hub says that dc0 is transmitting like mad, which seems odd, expecially when there are no other devices on its subnet with which it should be communicating (all of my other devices just say "link"). Is this normal behaviour? Thanks again for your help. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (FreeBSD) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE8RuoVzeurue0k47sRAm+3AJ4iHHCC0nm88fxBnttHTu6Uuzue2ACgn2P2 ayWdRgKIP+Y8cHoVBx0W3Gk= =DQTQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
