Hello, I need to finish a small GUI program till friday and I am somewhat stuck. First of all, wxRuby seems to ignore the size request of the frame as defined via XRC (or I''m completly doing the wrong thing!) Second, it complains about the statusbar and doesn''t display it. What am I doing wrong? The files are attached Thank you Ulrich Spoerlein -- PGP Key ID: F0DB9F44

Hello, i want to encrypt my HDD's with GELI (not the root-fs, though). I want to do the encryption without password, just with a key. The key should be stored in a floppy disk, and the read should be read automatically on boot, from the floppy. There is a problem here, because GELI initializes _before_ mounting the disks from /etc/fstab (for obvious reasons, of course). So GELI is not able

Hello, I was playing around with geli an gbde after last EuroBSDCon. I liked the idea of encrypting my data which resides in /home/$user. Since this is a "single" user laptop i intended to encrypt the whole /home partition. Well no problems with that. But i wanted the lockfile or keyfile on a seperate usb disc. Which would be mounted or used during boot of the system. I also used

I have a zpool that consists for a two-drive mirror. The two times I took the zpool offline, I had to resilver one of the 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. Both drives are encrypted geli devices. I tried to reproduce the error with 1GB

Hi. I'm moving some of my geli installation to a new machine. On an old machine it was running UFS. I use ZFS on a new machine, but I don't have an encrypted main pool (and I don't want to), so I'm kinda considering a way where I will make a zpool on a zvol encrypted by geli. Would it be completely insane (should I use UFS instead ?) or would it be still valid ? Thanks. Eugene.

I'm not really a developer, but was considering if there is a key vulnerability in geli given that when you change a key there isn't a disk update. Consider the scenario where a new file system is created and populated with some files. At a later time the original key is changed because someone has gained access to the key and passphrase. A new key is generated and attached, but none of

hail, I have a soekris running an atom and 2GB RAM and ZFS using 7 drives, small capacity though, to test and study if I can make my home server this box and this way. It will be a simple server, three users tops. I followed the handbook and made the geli step on the disks: Geom name: label/zfs1.eli State: ACTIVE EncryptionAlgorithm: AES-XTS KeyLength: 128 Crypto: software UsedKey: 0 Flags:

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

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

Hello, Just to let everyone know that this is still an issue. I am trying to install FreeBSD 9.0 amd64 on a Lenovo X121e and I can't get it to accept the geli passphrase during boot. I've confirmed using kern.geom.eli.visible_passphrase=1 that the passphrase is correct, and the same passphrase is accepted when the system is booted up. I've tried disabling kbdmux in

Hello, I almost always get a panic when running kismet on my ipw-Interface under 6.1-PRERELEASE. This has been the case ever since ipw hit the tree. Sometimes kismet works, sometimes it doesn't. A sure way to trigger the panic is to switch between bss/ibss/monitor mode prior to running kismet. Perhaps there is a bug in the re-initialization when loading a different firmware? Is this panic

Followed the instructions here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/updating-upgrading-freebsdupdate.html The upgrade borked. Error message: Can't find 'kernel' When I checked with ls /boot/kernel/, the directory does exist. :-( Since the system has encrypted root partion with ZFSonROOT, I tried to follow instructions at https://forums.freebsd.org/viewtopic.php?&t=8958 to boot

Hi all, can someone comment on the state of the hifn(4) driver? I've recently upgraded my 6.2-STABLE workstation to RELENG_7, and I'm now experiencing system lockups that seem to be caused by the hifn(4) driver. I've got a Soekris vpn1401 card to help with GELI disk en- cryption. Reading from a GELI volume is causing the system to freeze completely, which does not happen if

I was using a GELI partition for /usr/home on 7.0, so it attaches and mounts on boot. The problem is it stopped working after the system was upgraded to RELENG_7/7.1-PRERELEASE. Here's how it goes: I have the following /etc/fstab: /dev/ad0s1b none swap sw 0 0 /dev/ad0s1a / ufs rw 1 1 /dev/ad0s1d

Hello out there, everybody! I was actually expecting to find several (hundred) threads with this subject being discussed. To my surprise I didn't find a single one either on these mailing lists or in the newsgroups - at least not in a language I understand. :-) I realize that gbde and geli are not designed to be better than the other but that both fit different needs and different tastes.

Rarely, a geli partition I have freezes a process in bufwait state. It occurs after an ATA timeout message: Aug 5 03:47:13 thor kernel: ad10: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA retrying (1 retry left) LBA=219028637 The geli partition resides on an Intel MatrixRAID RAID1 mirror using the ICH9R chipset (Asus P5K-E/WIFI). Killing (even -9) the process does not work. Rebooting is the only solution, yet the

Hello. I have been investigating a 'secure' Firefox solution. The cache, history and other files are kept on an encrypted slice and swap is encrypted also. The problem I am having is that I know the shell commands required to unmount /tmp, create providers with GELI with one-time keys, remount /tmp, activate swap etc. but I don't know the correct way to get this done automatically on
