Hi, I was looking at the crypt(3) manpage, and I'm having a hard time figuring out what the allowed characters are for the salt in md5 and blowfish encryption. For DES, it clearly states that only numbers, letters and digits may be used. Does anyone know the rules for md5/blowfish salt characters? Thanks, Charles -- Charles Sprickman spork@inch.com

Has anyone got the pam_chroot module to successfully work in FreeBSD? I have FreeBSD 5.2-RELEASE installed. I copied the appropriate binaries and libraries into my chroot, I can chroot -u test -g test /home/test /usr/local/bin/bash and it works perfectly. So now I am trying to get the pam module to work. I added session required pam_chroot.so debug into the

On the advisory about the realpath problem it says that it was corrected: RELENG_4_8 src/UPDATING 1.73.2.80.2.3 src/lib/libc/stdlib/realpath.c 1.9.14.1 src/sys/conf/newvers.sh 1.44.2.29.2.2 I ran cvsup and when I look at my src/lib/libc/stdlib/realpath.c I see

Dear All. I want to use 'not' for 2 addresses (for both) in ipfw2 rule. The only way that looks like what I need is # ipfw add count from IP1 to not IP2,IP3 But does this rule indeed makes what I want? Does it count all packets destined to addresses other then IP2 AND IP3?! No other syntax works. For example more logically correct not IP2 AND not IP3 or even not { IP2 or IP3 } are

Hi, When deploying a BSD with IPF in at the network perimeter and using rules like these: pass in .. proto tcp ... keep state(strict) it's possible to refuse tcp packets which arrive out of order. This would increase the difficulty doing blind attack resets and blind data injection attack, cause then you'd have to "guess" the exact expected number. Checpoint has a similar

I don't know if there are any pitfalls with the 'fix' I suggested and though it best to run it past people here before submitting. If there's a better place to post this please let me know (freebsd-ports?). The send-pr output I was about to send explains everything so I'll just paste it here:
