They will stop working in 4.9 and 5.2 although old behavior can _temporarily_ be enabled by adding "options DA_OLD_QUIRKS" to your kernel config.

(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

Hello, I've been looking at the different MAC modules available and how they cold help to implement a less insecure than usual shared hosting web server. I've not been able to come up with a suitable configuration, looking at mac_bsdextended, mac_biba and mac_mls, but I think that a MAC module with the following policies could be very useful for such an environment. Have I

Hi, I have network data in the form of a couple of edgelists containing weights in the format "x,y,weight" whereby x represents row header and y represents column header. All edgelists are based on links among 634 nodes and I need to convert them into a 634*634 weighted matrix. I searched for online help using possible keywords I know, but I could not find a clue how to do this in

Hi, I''m pretty new to all related to bdd and rspec and I have the following question. Is it possible to stub actions that return different objects depending on the parameteres they were called with? Something like this: MyClass.stub!(:method).with(1).and_return(@mock_object_1) MyClass.stub!(:method).with(2).and_return(@mock_object_2) I know I could use

I have a couple development servers running centos 6.3 64bit that have LSI 9211-8i SAS2 controllers connected to a SAS2 backplane. these work fine with SATA hard disks (populated with a bunch of 3TB SATA drives)... I'm trying to install a OCZ Vertex3 SSD on each of the two servers to do some ssd caching tests... system sees the drive, so I do the following... # parted -a min

hi, I have installed ruby and rails under windows(exactly this one: http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/4174/ruby182-15.exe that includes rubygems) the thing is that while trying to install the mysql gem, it seemd to try to build the native extension, so I finally added a compiled version that I found in http://dema.ruby.com.br/ the problem is that webrick behaves quite unstable while

Now the test for the Vertex 2 Pro. This was fun. For more explanation please see the thread "Crucial RealSSD C300 and cache flush?" This time I made sure the device is attached via 3GBit SATA. This is also only a short test. I''ll retest after some weeks of usage. cache enabled, 32 buffers, 64k blocks linear write, random data: 96 MB/s linear read, random data: 206 MB/s linear

Hello, I did a fresh install of ruby182 and gem rails --include-dependencies Now when I do: rails receipts cd receipts ruby script\generate scaffold receipt receipt rails does not create the views or controller. What can I do? Thanks Frank

hi everybody I'd imagine this topic must have been covered, yet I've failed to find any really helpful and a solid howto/examples of how to pass-through a sata disks. currently I'm having this in my xml: <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='scsi' managed='no'> <source> <adapter name='scsi_host4'/>

nice time, Xen community. my DomU has very slow Disk performance, despite the usage of SSD''s. Maybe somebody can give some good tips to accelerate, or point out my mistakes.

I recently put together a new machine w/ a SuperMicro H8SCM and an AMD Opteron 4228 HE... I've having an issue where the clock on the machine skips around... The wierd part is that it's very sudden when it happens... ntp sometimes brings it back, but it can't when the clock gets too far ahread (1000 seconds), ntp dies... In order to catch it happening, I ran a sleep 60 loop

Hello, Are there many people actually using the MAC subsystem in the real world? I have been working to set up a shared hosting webserver and I've stumbled against some limitations with the BIBA policy. In short, it's an excellent model, and can be used succesfully if applications are aware of its existance, but I find it incompatible with the real-world needs in Unix, and,

Hello, I've found myself in a situation where a simple data inspection capability added to ipfw would be very useful. I'm not thinking about anything especially sophisticated, but what about adding an option to check byte values (or flags, similar to tcpdump)? An example rule could be: add deny udp from any to me 12345 udp[4]&234 being the rule true if byte 4 in the UDP

Hello, I've been playing a bit with the "noexec" flag for filesystems. It can represent a substantial obstacle against the exploitation of security holes. However, I think it's not perfect yet. First thing, an attempt to execute a program from a noexec-mounted filesystem should be logged. It is either a very significant security event, or it can drive nuts an
