PostPosted: Thu Jun 02, 2016 1:06 pm 
i have situation where i'm receiving a /26 subnet via CPE router and i only want to advertise /29 subnet to EBGP. is there any way to do that? i can't advertise whole /26 as it breaks other customer. Note: /29 prefix does not
live on the box so i can't advertise them directly. Any help would be highly appreciated.

Note: working on Juniper MX.

 Post subject: FreeBSD: monitor network interface traffic throughput - exploring systat
PostPosted: Mon Feb 02, 2015 7:17 pm 
FreeBSD has a builtin utility called "systat" for retrieving system statistics: CPU cycles, disk I/O, virtual memory, TCP/IP statistics.

Interface traffic flowing throughput can be shown with "systat -if 1". First argument informs systat to use interface display and the second the refresh time - 1second.

Command manual:
Quote:
NAME
systat -- display system statistics

SYNOPSIS
systat

The systat utility displays various system statistics in a screen ori-
ented fashion using the curses screen ...

 Post subject: Changing man path when having multiple man files from daemons with the same name
PostPosted: Thu Apr 07, 2011 6:50 am 
When having multiple man files from multiple daemons with the same name (ie: /usr/share/man/man8/tftpd.8.gz from freebsd stock tftpd daemon and /usr/local/man/man8/tftpd.8.gz from yale-tftpd packet), the man tftpd command will show the content of the default tftpd.8.gz man page (/usr/share/man/man8/tftpd.8.gz).

Code:
# pkg_info -L freebsd*; pkg_info -L yale*
Information for freebsd-tftp-1.0:

Files:
/usr/bin/tftp
/usr/libexec/tftpd
/usr/share/man/man1/tftp.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/tftpd.8.gz

Information for yale-tftpd-3.0:

Files:
/usr/local/libexec/tftpd
/usr/local/man/man8/tftpd.8.gz


If you want to see the man page from yale-tftpd (/usr/local/man/man8/tftpd.8.gz), you can change ...

While running the cyrus2courier perl script, I ran into the following error:

For this, the perl MailTools module is needed.

 Post subject: FreeBSD: Apache 2.2.15 (custom location) + mod_fcgid
PostPosted: Thu Jul 22, 2010 1:07 pm 
After installing Apache 2.2.15, mod_fcgid port is trying to download and install httpd-2.0.63.tar.bz2 (Apache 2.0).

I found no other way of making mod_fcgid work with apache 2.2.15 already installed on custom location (/opt).

workaround:
Code:
# ln -sf /opt/apache-2.2.15_9/sbin/apxs /usr/local/sbin/apxs

# make install PREFIX=/opt/mod_fcgid-2.3.5 USE_APACHE=2.2


And that's it. Mod_fcgid installs nicely with apache 2.2.15 installed in a custom location.

 Post subject: SSH disable password login for root (only allow public key authentication)
PostPosted: Mon Jul 12, 2010 3:50 pm 
SSH (Secure SHell) is a system that allows remote login to Linux/*BSD servers or VPS servers securely, traffic between ssh client and server being encrypted as well as the username and password used to login.
In certain scenarios, root password login only or global password login should be restricted to increase the security level of the intended VPS server. This is done in tandem with SSH Key authentication (see https://vpsie.com/ssh-key-authentication-linux-vps-server/) to avoid loosing access.

FreeBSD ifconfig display capability and supported media types for an interface

ifconfig FreeBSD utility is used to configure network interface parameters. To display the capability and supported media types of an interface the -m argument must be used.

Ex:

# ifconfig -m em0
em0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
options=5b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,POLLING>
capabilities=5b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,POLLING>
inet 82.78.227.177 netmask 0xfffffff0 broadcast 82.78.227.191
ether 00:04:23:c7:94:50
media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseTX <full-duplex>)
status: active
supported media:
