Hello, Help me please with *newhidups* setup. Does it work for someone on *BSD ? Here is the data. --------------------------------------------------------------- *** FreeBSD root.srv# uname -a FreeBSD xxxxxx.dyndns.info 5.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE #2: Tue Feb 8 07:38:22 UTC 2005 admin@temp.botka.homeunix.org:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/SRV i386 *** NUT ver.2.0.3 root.srv# ll /var/db/pkg/

I have a somewhat busy sftp server where the users are all chrooted into their home directory. In order to log all the commands they enter, I have to create a /dev/log entry and hard link in their home directory so that syslog works for their commands Match user * ForceCommand internal-sftp -f local1 -l verbose Everything works, but its a bit of a pain if someone restarts syslogd and forgets

On a rather full customer web server, I am trying to track down whose web site script is trying to make outbound network connections when they should not be. In /etc/security/audit_control, I added to the flags line dir:/var/audit flags:lo,aa,-nt minfree:5 to log failed network connection. When I try an make an outbound connection to something that is blocked in pf, it seems to sometimes work.

Other than cranking up logging to debug2, is there a way to better tune logging on a server to see if I am running into max sessions ? On FreeBSD RELENG11 I am periodically seeing connections being refused- 3way handshake not completing or completing and then FINs. Typically, I have a hundred or so connections at one time, but they can bounce up to a few hundred on occasion. Without leaving the

Couple of little things I noticed with a new RELENG_7 AMD64 box (as of yesterday) ifstat from the ports cannot seem to find interfaces for some reason ? It works fine on i386 [ns8]# ifstat -b ifstat: no interfaces to monitor! [ns8]# [ns8]# ifconfig em0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500

Any chance someone can look at / commit the fix in PR 52349 before 4.9R ? Its a simple fix. As it is to netstat, I dont know of anyone who 'owns' that program to bug other than to make a general plea :-) ---Mike -------------------------------------------------------------------- Mike Tancsa, tel +1 519 651 3400 Sentex Communications,

While trying to speed up nanobsd builds, I mounted /usr/obj on a ramdisk and found my box crashing. Thinking it might be hardware, I tried a separate machine, but with the same results. I have 4G of ram (i386). Am I just running out of some kernel memory ? If so, is there anything I can adjust to prevent this, yet still use mfs in this way ? mdconfig -a -t malloc -s 1800M newfs /dev/md0

Does anyone know of a way to rate limit ssh connections from an IP address ? We are starting to see more and more brute force attempts to guess simple passwords "/usr/sbin/inetd -wWl -C 10" is nice for slowing down attempts to services launched via inetd. Is there an equiv method for doing this to sshd? Running from inetd has some issues supposedly. ---Mike

Hi, colleagues! Something strange happens with a server. I am attempting to connect management interface of UPS with server via USB.

Cisco released an advisory about their ntp client and server having a bug http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/NTP-pub.shtml Is there a common code base at all that would have relevance to the code in FreeBSD ?

Hi, I have been trying out a nice new tws controller and decided to enable debugging in the kernel and run some stress tests. With a regular GENERIC kernel, it boots up fine. But with debugging, it panics on boot. Anyone know whats up ? Is this something that should be sent directly to LSI ? pcib0: <ACPI Host-PCI bridge> port 0xcf8-0xcff on acpi0 pci0: <ACPI PCI bus> on pcib0

Does anyone know off hand what the longest known serious security issue (i.e. remote compromise) has been with FreeBSD that went unpatched ? e.g. security hole is reported to security-officer@FreeBSD.org. X days later, fix and advisory committed. What has been the largest X ? My jaw dropped when I saw http://www.eeye.com/html/Research/Upcoming/index.html ---Mike
