    Basic question about Jail <-> Jail Networking

    Your jails are on different subnets (172.16.2/24 vs 172.16.1/24) and the jail host will need to know how to route between these, and pass traffic between them. If either jail only has a foot in one of the subnets, pay close attention to the output of "traceroute 172.16.2.1" from the web jail...

    ZFS Unsure about RAID Configuration and possible loss of data

    Just to clarify. A single RaidZ-N VDEV has the read/write IOPS performance of the slowest disk in the VDEV. Bandwidth, on the other hand, is the collective bandwidth of every data drive in the VDEV. (i.e. number of drives minus N) Mirrors work a little differently, and for writing, have the...

    Jails with vimage - clarification please

    I remember someone did performance tests on VIMAGE vs non-VIMAGE, and they came out pretty even. (differences were within the error margins) The downside to VIMAGE is the memory leaks. But if you don't kill jails those won't hit you. (Who doesn't kill jails? :eek:)

    sendmail cannot resolve PTR record

    Maybe the one that can send is using a smarthost (i.e. forwards outgoing e-mail to ISP's e-mail server)?

    Difference between Disc 1 and DVD 1?

    Or if you are setting up VMs, you'd go for disc1. As updated packages are available via the 'pkg' utility, I see no reason to grab the dvd1 ISO unless you have limited internet access on the target machine.

    ZFS zdb -S ... what means the first column?

    For bucket refcnt=512, the block count is 3. This means there are (or would be) three blocks which are referenced at least 512 times AND less than 1024 times.

    VNET, regular jails, gateways and defaultrouters

    With VNET, you can create your own custom topology. This could include a jail working as gateway/router between an internal and external (to the host) network. All you need to do is set up bridges (bridgeN) interfaces and attach the correct interfaces to the correct bridges. Remember, if you're...

    Mounting an NFS share doesn't require the NFS client?

    The service is useful if you set kern.securelevel via /etc/rc.conf using kern_securelevel_enable and kern_securelevel, as a kern.securelevel>=1 prevents (un)loading of kernel modules, amongst other things. :)

    Solved Accept Filters

    Here's a very basic explanation of how they work: http://savagedlight.me/2015/08/23/eli5-freebsd-accept-filters/ Yes you can write your own accept filters. Look at sys/netinet/accf_data.c for the most basic accept filter, and accept_filter for details on related APIs.

    ZFS Keep a specific filesystem on a designated disk

    As far as I know, copies=N>1 does not guarantee that the copies will be written to independent/different vdevs. cellini: I think there's still a chance of deadlock when running a zpool on top of a zvol in the same kernel. Should be "fine" to use geom mirror + ufs though. :)

    Solved [Solved] Session Timeout?

    Re: Session Timeout? And I just accidentially went to http://. It logged me out. Had to log in again, even when going to https:// afterwards. Case closed, I guess. It's a http(s) mixing issue.

    Solved [Solved] Session Timeout?

    Re: Session Timeout? I've made sure to enter the forums via https://forums.freebsd.org/ the past two days, and I didn't have to log in again. Will try non-https tomorrow to see if I can make it conclusive that mixing https and non-https is what's causing it. I'm still logged in when going to...

    Solved [Solved] Session Timeout?

    Re: Session Timeout? I'll try to figure out what causes it. First suspicion: I log in with https and browse with https, but when I first visit the forums in the morning I usually land on the non-https version. Although this makes no difference right now (I am logged in no matter which one I...

    Solved [Solved] Session Timeout?

    I've noticed that I have to log into these forums every day, despite selecting "keep me logged in" when logging in. My IP hasn't changed, and I didn't clear my browser data. Speculation: Are the sessions set to expire that quickly? Or maybe they're stored in a temporary store (memcache) which...

    Posting on forums.freebsd.org quite a hassle

    I think we have very different opinions on what an "RTFM" culture is and isn't. IMO, one person saying "RTFM" in a thread isn't by any means a sign of an RTFM culture. That post even provided some steps for what to do if reading the manual didn't help. And if you read further down the thread and...

    Setting up jails...doot!

    VIMAGE is still experimental, hence it's not part of the GENERIC kernel.

    Make the [user] tag link to user profile?

    I just tested that, and it seems like it's a problem with the bbcode itself, because when I check with ...&un=wblock@, it shows the profile page. Maybe the regex used to define what goes between the opening and closing bracket needs some tweaking?
