Hi puppeteers, I have a problem with one of my puppets. When I run puppetd and a file needs to be updated I get the following error message: debug: //jupiter/freebsd_base/File[/etc/rc.conf]: Changing source debug: //jupiter/freebsd_base/File[/etc/rc.conf]: 1 change(s) debug: Calling fileserver.retrieve debug: Calling puppetbucket.addfile err: Could not call puppetbucket.addfile: #<Errno::EINVAL: Invalid argument - connect(2)> err: //jupiter/freebsd_base/File[...

I'm not a master of the internet RFCs, but I do believe icmp messages have different types. Now to enable traceroute for IPFW, I might put in a rule like this: ipfw add pass icmp from any to me However, how would I make a rule to limit icmp messages to just those used by traceroute?

When I receive a mail that is addressed to my email address and also with a cc to a mailinglist I subscribe to, I get two mails, which I guess is expected... But I have just moved to Dovecot from Cyrus, and Cyrus seems to know that this is the same mail, so only one of those two mail is stored on the imap srv... Is there some option I am missing in Dovecot or isn't this possible using

Hi, I need to know what the implications are to make use of the hosts.allow file on a FreeBSD Production Server (ISP Setup)? The reason I'm asking, is that I've recently decommisioned a Linux SendMail Server to a FreeBSD Exim Server, but with no Firewall (IPTABLES) yet.

Hello, what is the right way to disable XFree86 and wdm listening ports tcp 6000 and tcp 1024. I read in man XFree86 about the -nolisten tcp option and tried to set in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm :0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -nolisten tcp but it was not successful. What is the right way to close the ports without use of IPFW? Your help would be appreciated. Thank?s Wolfgang

I have set up Samba so that all users on my small network can read from my one of my Linux shares as well as write to that share. However, when user A saves a file to that share, user B can't open it -- and vice versa. How can I set up samba so that all files written to that share can be read, modified, and deleted by all users? Thanks in advance for an answer to this question.
