Is anyone currently working on updating the Kerberos documentation in the Handbook? if so, I'd like to help. If not, I'm hoping to find someone who can get me up to speed on the FreeBSD docbook extensions :-) -T -- "The truly paranoid administrator may wish to place motion detectors in the air ducts." - Practical UNIX & Internet Security, 2nd Ed...

Hi! I'm quite new to the list, but searching the archive and PRs didn't show me anything on the matter. According to FreeBSD Handbook (14.8.2 Setting up a Heimdal KDC) one should config DNS server by adding: ----- _kerberos IN TXT EXAMPLE.ORG. ----- This doesn't work. DNS servers returns: text = "EXAMPLE.ORG.". This is right, because RFC 1035 allows up to 16 character strings at this field (assuming...

Dear All, Over the past week or so, I have spent some time updating Tom Rhodes' excellent FreeBSD Handbook chapter on Audit for some of the more recent audit changes, such as new features in more recent OpenBSM versions. Since FreeBSD 6.2-BETA2 contains what is likely the final drop of the audit code (modulo any bug fixes) for 6.2-RELEASE, now would be a great time for people interested in Audit to...

``You do not want to overbuild your security or you will interfere with the detection side, and detection is one of the single most important aspects of any security mechanism. For example, it makes little sense to set the schg flag (see chflags(1)) on every system binary because while this may temporarily protect the binaries, it prevents an attacker who has broken in from making an easily

(crossposted to freebsd-security just in case someone has to slap me) :) Hello, I'm doing some work with the MAC subsystem in FreeBSD, and I have spotted some errors in the MAC documentation in the handbook. 1- Section 15.14.4. Error in the example dropping users "nagios" and "www" into the insecure class. The example uses the command "pw usermod nagios -L default" when it should obviously be "pw usermod nagios -L insecure". The same holds for the "w...

you guys are so friggin funny.. all i see bout problems on most providers here are users who never read a line of the handbook i could prolly solve all these eyes closed with the asterisk handbook on my side as a friend. wake up.. i work for a hosting provider and we get lots of users assuming they have it all right and us is the problem. and in fact 99% of the time they are the ones who fucked theyre servers up and su...

I will shortly be replacing a couple of proprietary VPN boxes with a FreeBSD solution. Section 10.10 of the Handbook has a detailed description of how to do this. However I remember a lot of discussion about a year ago about whether the gif interface was necessary to set up VPNs like this or whether it was just a convenience, for "getting the routing right". A number of people said that gif was not n...

...both the FreeBSD box as well as the shares on the AS/400. I don't want to have users log into the FreeBSD box then need to again do a login again to the AS/400. From what I've read thus far it "seems" that configuring Kerberos between the two is the way to go about this. The handbook talks about setting up a remote loging kind of thing, but nothing about how to handle NFS permissions. I also don't quite get how to automate the process of authenticating and mounting upon initial login. Question 1: Am I heading down the right road, or are there other options I should be...

Hi everyone, As we're closing in on the time when proposals need to be written and handed in, I'd like to point out the great student guide to GSoC: https://web.archive.org/web/20150315023159/http://en.flossmanuals.net/GSoCStudentGuide/# As you may notice this points to Archive.org, that is because flossmanuals seems to be currently down. That's an additional reason why I'm

At the most recent project I completed I have to post a intranet web page with instructions on using the system and phones. Asterisk is 1.07 stable and the phones are Polycom IP300, IP500, and IP600. Has anyone done an Astersik users guide? Something non-technical but covering most of the features an office worker would use. If nothing exists, should we develop this as a documentation project?

I am a newbie trying to get the most current Stable version of FreeBSD running. I have been using CVS to update my system, but things don't work after an update. For example KDE 3.1 (from KDE 3.0) doesn't start using startkde. I am looking for instructions on the best way to Install the lastest version of FreeBSD-Stable and how to Upgrade the system in the future. Thanks.

Dear All , In sysinstall , there are menu items to install packages from release DVD . In bsdinstall , there is NO such package installation menu items . Another problem is there is no any available information about this subject in the Handbook installation pages ( at least I could not find any one one ) . Is there any such available information link , and is there any possibility to include such information into Handbook pages and Release Notes templates ? When there is no such information , people will use pkg_add -r ... statement...

Hi, I am starting a new job as a study analyst for a social science research unit. I would really like to use R as my main tool for data manipulation and analysis. So I'd like to ask you, if you had just one book on R to buy (or to keep), which one would it be ? I already bought the Handbook of Statistical Analysis Using R, but I'd like to have something more complete, both on the statistical point of view and on R usage. I thought that "Modern applied statistics with S-Plus" would be a good choice, but maybe some of you could have interesting suggestions ? Thanks in ad...

...ave dynamic public ips on the internet side, and private ips on the lan side. As you can see in the diag, I am trying to have the vpn traffic from the internet forwarded to the Freebsd vpn (the machines ending in .254 on each site). I have followed the Freebsd "VPN over Ipsec" in the handbook, and created a tunnel between the two vpn servers; according to the handbook, I should be able to ping the vpn servers using their private network addresses, but I am not able to do that. I realize that my implementation is not exactly like the handbook's, but what do I need to do to get i...

Hello. We have a webserver using FreeBSD, we read about tunning kern.ipc.somaxconn (http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/configtuning-kernel-limits.html) so the OS can handle all the connections. Is there a way to know how many connections are established in a certain moment?. I know about netstat(1) but is there any other command that we can use to know the exact amount of how many connections are established?. Th...
