Hi all, I'm looking for a way to recreate the functionality of PGP Disk (under Win32). Basically, create an encrypted file, which contains a filesystem which can then be mounted in any mount point. I know I can use GELI in FreeBSD 6 - as I understand, it performs the encryption at the partition level (the whole partition is encrypted). I'd like to be able to simply unmount my

Does the 6.1-BETA4-i386-disc2.iso contain only usr/share/doc, or for some reason i am unable to see anything else? I was looking for usr/src (and for a odd chance to have usr/ports); i suppose those two trees would be available somewhere on some disc for RELENG_6_1. I mounted the image as ... mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /path/to/6.1-BETA4-i386-disc2.iso -u 0 mount -t cd9660 /dev/md0 /mnt ... then looked around as usual (cd, ls). - Parv --

FreeBSD version: 5.1-RELEASE Hi, I'm quite new to FreeBSD. I've check list archives and read a handbook, but I didn't find solution to my problem and I hope this is not off-topic. I've installed 5.1-RELEASE, enabled ACLs on the filesystems and I wanted to test MAC features. I'm also new to MAC, so perhaps this is some my mistake. When I enable mac_biba or mac_lomac (in

I'm trying to destroy a zfs array which I recently created. It contains nothing of value. # zpool status pool: storage state: ONLINE status: One or more devices could not be used because the label is missing or invalid. Sufficient replicas exist for the pool to continue functioning in a degraded state. action: Replace the device using 'zpool replace'.

Hi there, I've been trying to mount my NTFS partitions with the NTFS-3g project's FUSE implementation but am unable to mount anything. I'm on 6-STABLE and have the latest versions of FUSE installed: fusefs-kmod-0.3.0_4 Kernel module for fuse fusefs-libs-2.6.2 FUSE allows filesystem implementation in userspace fusefs-ntfs-0.20070207RC1 Mount NTFS partitions and disk images I use

Normally the FreeBSD Project tries very hard to avoid ABI breakage in "Stable Branches". However occasionally the fix for a bug can not be implemented without ABI breakage, and it is decided that the fix warrants the impact of the ABI breakage. We have one of those situations coming along for RELENG_7 (what will become FreeBSD 7.1). The ABI breakage should only impact kernel modules

Hi, I am trying to create a hybrid ISO image for FreeBSD 9.2 using syslinux 6.01 and isohybrid.pl I found at http://www.overclockix.com/sources/isohybrid.pl (I know there is a C version in syslinux but I haven't been able to build it yet due to the UUID library being different to the one in FreeBSD). According to the wiki mboot.c32 can boot FreeBSD, however I haven't been able to get it

Any progress here? Does anyone know if this will be fixed in 7.1 latest, or should we start looking for different backup solution (in this case I would suggest to remove dump from the source tree - having a backup tool that doesn't work is worse than having none). After upgrading we basically cannot backup our servers. Shouldn't this issue be on

...drives (the same drive both times) when I imported it back. All drives in the pool show no read, write, or checksum errors and are new, so I'm looking to a software problem before hardware.

Hi. I experimented a bit with collecting entropy from the time it takes for device_attach() to run (in CPU cycles). It seems that those times have enough variation that we can use it for entropy harvesting. It happens even before root is mounted, so pretty early. On the machine I'm testing it, which has minimal kernel plus NIC driver I see 75 device_attach() calls. I'm being very careful
