Hi, As a next question to my building this server. I'm nogt able to get a full verbose dmesg. Probably because the kernelbuffer for it is too small. I know there used to be a kernel option to increase it. But I can not find it with the setting in NOTES or any other place I looked.... Is it still there? Thanx, --WjW

We have been noticing flurries of sshd reject messages in which some system out there in the hinterlands hits us with a flood of ssh login attempts. An example: Apr 6 05:41:51 dc sshd[88763]: Did not receive identification string from 67.19.58.170 Apr 6 05:49:42 dc sshd[12389]: input_userauth_request: illegal user anonymous Apr 6 05:49:42 dc sshd[12389]: Failed password for illegal user

Hi, I'm fresh starting to use dovecot. Before this I used bincimap, mainly because it was very simple to config. I've tried to find the FAQ's and tried searching the archives, but little came up. My current config: server FreeBSD i386, postfix 2.4 dovecot 1.0.10 client: windows 2000 thunderbird 2.0.0.12 after some inital config this starts up, and I even have the

Hi all, ?Is there any app like denyhosts[1] but intended for MySQLd service? We have a mysql ports (3306) opened for remote connections, and obviously the /var/db/mysql/machine_name.log is full of these kind of entries: ........... 936012 Connect Access denied for user 'user'@'85.19.95.10' (using password: YES) 936013 Connect Access denied for user

Hi, This is the first time I've come across this: pid 11415 (ipfw), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped) The core dump landed in root's home directory in one of my jails. Has anyone seen this before? Should I be concerned? chkrootkit says nothing. (How trustworthy is its output? ;-) Thanks. Cheers. -- Ng Pheng Siong <ngps@netmemetic.com> http://firewall.rulemaker.net

Hello, Is there a way to get a single TRUE or FALSE statement from comparing two vectors? For example, c(1,2,3) == c(1,2,3) produces TRUE TRUE TRUE where I would like it to produce only TRUE for use in an if statement. Likewise, when two vectors are not exactly identical (in all elements) I would like a single FALSE result, as opposed to c(1,2,3) == c(1,2,5) TRUE TRUE FALSE Any ideas?

I am trying to do a tutorial improvement on the wiki but I am having some problems with the auto formatting. Using httdp.conf produces http://httpd.conf when filtered. Using *.so produces .so and bold text there after. Is there any shorthand for the user for making text appear as it should without the linking and re-writes? Or does the admin have to change the filters in Instiki? Tesla

Hello, I'm running a very long for loop that usually takes hours. For my own piece of mind, it would be nice if I could check periodically and see which iteration the loop is on. A line of code that told R to print the iteration number every 100 or 200 iterations would be perfect. Does anyone know something like this? I've never known how to print anything within a for loop before the

Hi. On my FreeBSD 4.8 configured IPFW2+IPF+IPNAT and I use them all: - IPFW - traffic accounting, shaping, balancing and filtering; - IPFilter - policy routing; - IPNAT - masquerading. I want to know, how IP-packets flow through all of this components? What's the path? incoming: IPFW Layer2 -> IPFW&Dummynet -> IPNAT -> IPFilter ? outgoing: IPFW Layer2 ->

Hi, Rsync is still hanging under cygwin for me. I'm using rsync 2.6.0 and i've tried cygwin-1.5.6-1 as well as a snapshot of 1.5.7. I've noticed that some people are having success. I shouldn't have to do anything interesting in order to make this work, right? *********************************************************************** This message is intended only for the use of

Hi, I'm using kernel FreeBSD 10.0-BETA3 #2 r257635 kernel. I am trying to add port number to ipfw tables. But there is something strange : Problem is easily repeatable. #ipfw table 1 flush #ipfw table 1 add 4899 #ipfw table 1 list ::/0 0 #ipfw table 1 flush #ipfw table 1 add 10.2.3.01 ( not 10.0.0.1, the last 1 has 0 as prefix ) #ipfw table 1 list ::/0 0 #ipfw table 1 delete ::/0

Hello, I'd like to plot an empirical cumulative distribution function, except instead of the fraction of values < x, I'd like the fraction of values > x. I think this can be done using the ecdf function in {Hmisc}. I installed the package and loaded it. However, when following the example given in the documentation, I get an error: x <- rnorm(100) ecdf(x,what='1-F')

Hi, Two quick questions that I can't seem to find answers for using google. 1) is is possible to listen outside an ipfw firewall - that is have ethereal record the packets before ipfw starts dropping them? If so how? 2) Is there an api to ipfw that will let me manipulate rules, query stats etc? I need something faster than running the command line binary? Thanks John

Hi all: I have strange probelm with rc.conf. I set up ipfw (compiled into kernel) on freebsd-5.4 and it doesn't seem to load ipfw rulesets (it uses default ruleset 65335 locking out everything). I have to do "sh /etc/ipfw.rules" in order to load the rulesets, once I did that, I can access the box from remote locations here is my rc.conf: host# more /etc/rc.conf

Hello, I created an array to hold the results of a series of simulations I'm running: d.eta <- array(0,dim=c(3,3,200)) <simulation goes here and populates the array but it's not important> Then I tried to save the results using this: save(d.eta,file="D:/Simulation Results/sim 9-23-11 deta") When I later tried to reload them using this: d.eta <-
