For you swedish openbsd nerds there will be an event this saturday. http://www.slackathon.se:2011/ The talks last year were really interesting and im sure this year will be awesome. Looking forward to Henning, Ariane and the PPC talk. There is no entrance fee so you could go just to fawn over the openbsd rock stars

I'm having difficulty finding any solution to my problem online. I have my Windows and FreeBSD box hooked up to a USB KVM and when I switch from FreeBSD to Windows the mouse no longer works on X11. The kernel reconnects the mouse and hald sees the mouse reconnect again. I can use the mouse in the console, but when switching back to the FreeBSD box, X11 can't detect the mouse again. Nothing in the logs are obvious. Both hald and dbus are running and in the rc.conf and restarting them doesn't fix it consistently as a workaround.pre:FreeBSD gamet 8.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE #0: Thu Feb 17 02:41:51 UTC 2011 root@mason.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 Build Operating System: FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE amd64 Current Operating System: FreeBSD gamet 8.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE #0: Thu Feb 17 02:41:51 UTC 2011 root@mason.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 Build Date: 04 March 2011 01:41:38PM

Build xorg without HAL support and see if the problem goes away. HAL needs to die a fiery death. You just can't hotplug a mouse after X has started... but you could unplug/replug after X is running like your KVM seems to be doing and it would be just fine.

shouldnt the kvm do it's thing and not make it look like device removal on change?

Apparently I don't have a very good KVM because when a machine is booting up, the KVM needs to active on that machine or certain things (like display settings) won't be right. Getting a new KVM may solve many issues, but I still don't understand why Xorg can reattach a USB keyboard but not a USB mouse.

IanMalcolm posted:I cannot understand what is going on. The couchpotato script is a copy-paste from the sickbeard script. Couchpotato starts fine during boot or manually later on, but neither SickBeard nor SABnzbd+ start, even manually. If I run the command stated on the rc script, though, it starts fine (but I do run it as root, since the _sabnzbd user isn't allowed to log in). Sure its not a PATH issue? I have problems with sabnzbd starting properly because it can't find /usr/local/bin. Its ugly, but you can fix this by exporting PATH from rc.conf.

So I've looked everywhere, and I'm stuck. I've got a network with two gateways on it, .250 and .252. My Ubuntu server, on .1, uses .250 as a gateway as it's faster. I'd like the server to run a regular ping test on that router, and then fail over to .252 when .250 goes down, returning to .250 when it picks up again. Under OpenBSD, I've always used ifstated, but Ubuntu doesn't seem to allow for that at all, so short of trying to compile it myself, is anyone aware of any better options? The server only has one network interface, so simply using different metrics in routing is not an option. I feel like I'm missing something very obvious, what is it?

EvilMoFo posted:Run OpenBSD? I mean, if it worked in the past for what you seek, that is the obvious option. I am a big fan of OpenBSD, but opted to give Ubuntu server a try after being as impressed as I was with the client side. I'll need to keep using it, and not having fail-over isn't a deal breaker (or something I couldn't hack together some kind of shell script for) but it does seem like a pretty obvious kind of thing to have.

Can't you cron something like: ping -c 3 4.2.2.2 || route del default gw && route add default gw x.x.x.252 Obviously you should check the flags to all of that and include some way of failing back if the old gateway comes back up, but you get the idea. Shell script + ping + route command. Edit: Or build ifstated, whatever that is, or run a routing protocol between you and the gateways, or...

Ninja Rope posted:Can't you cron something like: That's pretty much what I plan on doing - some small and dirty shell script to fire off every few minutes or so. Ifstated I really liked because it would check on whatever you asked, and was scriptable - I'm tempted to try building it anyway, am sure others will have a use for it.

I upgraded one for a friend not too long ago from 8.0 to 8-stable. I don't know how I'd do it from 8 to 9 considering you can't do the kernel AND world at the same time without causing the running system to break. The steps literally were to install the kernel and world, write the NEW gptzfsloader to the drives, and then reboot with your fingers crossed and do some cleanup. tl;dr GOOD LUCK! (this is why I've been waiting for the installer to fully support it first)

falz posted:Curious of anyone's experience using OpenBSD as a router, specifically with OpenBGPD and OpenOSPFD? In a lab VM environment I'm testing full BGP feeds and convergence times, things are much faster than on the Cisco hardware I have to test on due to Cisco general purpose CPU speeds being slow. Target hardware to be used would be generic Dell servers with Broadcom and/or Intel NICs (snip) I'm going to take your advice and re-purpose an old Dell PowerEdge 2650 (dual 2.8Ghz Xeon's). I do need to add an additional gig-E as I want to have 1 connection to the upstream it will border, and 1 connection to each core router. The upstream I'm going to have it border sells us 400Mbps. How does your hardware compare to mine, and what kind of forwarding performance are you seeing, and what sort of bottleneck indicators are you watching? Also, are you using a multi-processor Dell, and are you using the bsd.mp kernel? I assume that OpenBGPD still doesn't support confederations? If so, it isn't fatal, I just have a nice and scary maintenance window to collapse my network back into one homogeneous AS.

yarrmatey posted:I'm going to take your advice and re-purpose an old Dell PowerEdge 2650 (dual 2.8Ghz Xeon's). In applications where you don't need the extra hard drive bays that a big server like that provides, you're almost always better off using a new Dell R200/R300. They start out with dual gigabit NICs, but you may need to upgrade to Intel because some older versions of FreeBSD have trouble supporting Broadcom out of the box. Aother huge benefit is that the new processors are many times faster than the old Xeons. Even the now-discontinued Core2Duo models. We moved some staging web and database servers over from Dell 1850's with Dual Xeons over to some 2-year old R300's (2.4GHz and they are about 4 times as fast as they were on the old Dual-Xeon setup. Last, they only take up 1U of server space instead of 4U (or a tower) and they don't take anywhere near the power. I think the older Xeon's are like 130-160W each, and the newer C2D's are only about 60. Not sure if the newer Xeons or Core i3's are even lower.

I recently installed a pair of R210s with 4 port Intel GigE cards running pfSense 2.0-RELEASE/OpenOSPFD/OpenBGPD to replace my company's craptacular Sonicwall cluster. I had to tweak the BIOS settings to get it installed (known issue; see the pfSense forums) but they have been rock-solid for about a month now. I would rather have gone straight OpenBSD for the latest pf improvements, but my boss wanted a GUI. We're only pushing about 40Mbps average across all connections, but the CPU doesn't go over 2% even during bursts. Highly recommended!

On Windows there's an awesome ftp daemon we use called Xlight. So yeah, our Windows webhosting clients get SFTP access but our BSD ones don't. Ironic. edit: and not proftpd's sftp modules. That would work if it wasn't banned from our company because of the giant gaping security holes in that software stack. feld fucked around with this message at 18:24 on Dec 26, 2011 |
