About nine years ago I wrote a Makefile to automate a manual ZFS install described by Vermaden. It supports using memory/RAM disks for testing. Because ZFS as well as the FreeBSD install procedure will have changed a lot in these years, it would require quite a lot of work to adapt. But it...
From a script that I use to rsync OpenBSD snapshots from URL's like rsync://ftp.nluug.nl/openbsd/ :
skip="
cdboot
cdbr
game57.tgz
install57.fs
install57.iso
miniroot57.fs
"
for THIS in ${skip} ; do
EXCLUDE="${EXCLUDE} --exclude='${THIS}'"
done
echo ${EXCLUDE}
echo
echo...
The behaviour of using a trailing slash on the directory name is explained in rsync under the heading USAGE:
rsync -avz foo:src/bar /data/tmp
This would recursively transfer all files from the directory src/bar on
the machine foo into the /data/tmp/bar directory on the local machine.
The files...
Please post that info here. Most of the time I cannot connect to wonkity.com :mad:
Now you posted it here, please "stickify" it .... and you can delete this post
You can simplify your life with SSH by creating a .ssh/config file in your home directory. See ssh_config
Host 192.168.0.100
User root
Port 3333
Now you never have to type the username nor that damned port number anymore ;)
To get rid of the password prompt, add your public ssh key to the...
Maybe you could try this Perl script. I got this working on OpenBSD. Don't have time to test on FreeBSD
On one OpenBSD box I run tip -v -19200 /dev/ttyU0
On the other one I run the Perl script ./serial-new.pl
./serial-new.pl
speed 19200 baud; 0 rows; 0 columns;
lflags: icanon isig iexten echo...
You don't seem to understand the issues mentioned in http://perldoc.perl.org/perlfaq8.html#How-do-I-read-and-write-the-serial-port ;)
The read function from bash :
does not handle lock files
probably does not open your serial device for both read and write
You need a language like Perl to...
Because the source code of both FreeBSD and Gentoo are available you can tinker with them equally.
You could even create a TinkerBSD or TinkerGentoo ;)
I don't think you can reliably use a serial port from a high-level language like bash.
See http://perldoc.perl.org/perlfaq8.html#How-do-I-read-and-write-the-serial-port? for some of the issues you will have to deal with if you want to use the serial port on Unix(-like) systems.
It is also possible you will have to contact your ISP and tell them your new MAC address. Some ISPs lock you in on the first MAC address their DHCP server sees.
You can use the following as a template. Basic idea is to block and log all traffic that is not allowed (yet). By running tcpdump on the pflog0 interface you can see the blocked packets.
We filter on the internal interface and tag or label the traffic we want to pass.
On the external interface...
From Firefox you can also force the DNS requests to go through the remote proxy. You have to set this manually by typing about:config and set network.proxy.socks_remote_dns;true
The actual low level communication between two NICs is done by using MAC addresses. The mechanism that translates IP addresses to these MAC addresses is called ARP (Address Resolution Protocol).
From my OpenBSD box a ping to host 192.168.222.11 on my LAN creates the following ARP traffic...
I don't understand why would you need to use colocation for that? For your purpose getting a VPS or a physical server will do.
I am using https://www.transip.eu/vps/ . I haven't found another VPS provider that gives you so much RAM and disk space for 10 euro per month.
Last year, for a client...
You can find out the IP address with ifconfig. If the FreeBSD host has sshd running, you should be able to use scp to copy files from the host into the guest.
Or read the DATA TRANSFER section from nc to do it without configuring SSH.
See https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch06.html for the...
During the install you are asked whether the clock of your computer is set to local time or UTC. If you answered wrongly you will have a time difference ;)
I have the following entry in /etc/crontab
# Adjust the time zone if the CMOS clock keeps local time, as opposed to
# UTC time. See...
