anybody know a decent read to get fuse to mount smb in fstab on boot?

(or some other method)

i'm guessing that by now possibly mount_smbfs has been removed since it only supports ntlm/smb1?

Title: Mounting exfat and ntfs-3 filesystems with fstab | The FreeBSD Forums

i guess it would be something similar to that?

/exit/

it looks `route` not aware of WITHOUT_INET6 build option? i have system built without ipv6 due to no need, but i seeing this -> route: bad keyword inet6

WITHOUT_INET6 is the kernel option, right?

angry_vincent: did you rebuild the world (including route) to ignore inet6?

kernel options are separate from WITH_/WITHOUT_ knobs

rtprio i believ so, yes

angry_vincent: that sounds like it's working as intended? route doesn't understand the inet6 keyword because it's compiled out

ah, ok, then all fine

for lack of better phrasing, I think you're shooting the messenger and it's something trying to invoke route that you need to be questioning

but if it's an rc script, it's *probably* expected

i was thinking it is yet expecting/probing/doing something for ipv6

nah, it's just responding to args

one could argue it's questionable value to rebuild to remove inet6

i understand such argument.

yeah, i'm also not big on the idea, but i could see why it would be appealing

don't get me wrong, my TINY kernel is 8mb whereas GENERIC 28mb

but there's always a degree of fucking around one needs to do

sorry

i just realised why all the kernel packages are roughly the same size: alpha.pkgbase.live/release/13.1/FreeBSD:13:amd64/latest

because of all the modules.

hi all

hi adilix

rtprio: just for closure, the problem I've been having is with my firewall rules. When I set a bypass rule before my divert, problems magically went away. Looks like I need to pay more attention to how ipfw rules associated with em1 interact with the bridge.

Hello, I want to try installing FreeBSD on my 'Raspberry PI 4' and wonder what resources to consult before/during the installation? I found the FreeBST/ARM/RaspberryPi ppage on the wiki so far.

My previous BSD experience is very limited, however I have solid linux foudations

oo_miguel: FreeBSD on any platform is "mostly the same". For RPi, you save the image to your media instead of using an installer. That's about it.

ghoti: I am sure I can read it up myself - but just curious - is the image you refer to supported by freebsd team? or is this some independetn side-project?

Ok, at least I see that they are hosted ad freebsd.org

Thanks

FreeBSD is a registered trademark that can only be used by the FreeBSD project, so almost by definition it can't be independent.

debdrup: good point, thanks

ghoti: ah, doh.

ghoti, Thanks for the closure! I was wondering myself what the detail was that caused the problem. :-)

/usr/bin/openssl version is showing OpenSSL 1.1.1o-freebsd 3 May 2022, shouldn't it be more recent after patching the cve which was fixed in 13.1-p7?

freebsd-version outputs 13.1-RELEASE-p7, to be clear

I am learning ACLs, but I can't tell what (r): and (rw): mean before the bits. bsd.to/gAeg

Title: dpaste/gAeg (Plain Text)

nevermind, that was in the group name

So, just out of curosity, how would one setup dialup on FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE?

AReal486: docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/ppp-and-slip

Title: Chapter 29. PPP | FreeBSD Documentation Portal

Thanks!

AReal486: The PPP stuff has a nice knowledge transfer if you find yourself needing PPPoE as well, which is common enough nowadays.

Well, I have a US Robotics Courier 3453C which I want to play around it. I have it working with BBSes and dialup (using Arachne) on FreeDOS and wanted to see if I could do something similar on my FreeBSD machine.

llua: in your salt config, why do you use sysrc wrapped in a command in your stop_sendmail, and sysctl in yaml in other places. doesn't sysrc have a salt function?

i was unaware of the sysrc.managed state module, i used cmd.run since service.disable(?) wasn't going to work with those names

Demosthenex: ^

Demosthenex: thanks for the heads up tho, it uses it now

llua: i'm just reading :P i was curious

yeah, disabling sendmail is a bit awkward

Howdy. When I install packages, they usually print out a message. I suppose those messages are recorded somewhere, right?

LucMove: Pull it out with, for example: pkg info -D devcpu-data

Yes. Thanks.

llua: i was thrilled when i found sysrc

i've been disappointed that the bootloader.conf and sysctl don't have similar tools, and sysrc breaks on them

in aix i can have a "first boot script" where i use shell commands to configure just about everything without gold files or text editing, i was hoping to do more of that with the base freebsd OS

without salt

linux is just so braindead with text files that can't be validated. love sysrc.

so having salt let me make a file with a list of settings is very appealing

because those files i shouldn't distribute as gold files

what is a gold file?

xtile: in config management terms, it's a file that's the same on many hosts, so you distribute a golden file

oh, i helped you the other day, i was wondering how you knew about my setup

xtile, Also infrastructures.org/bootstrap/gold.shtml which is historical context for the IT use of the term.

thank you

Gold server is a neat idea.
