[00:00] hi RandalSchwartz [00:05] *** gcw|mbpro is now known as gcw|sleeping [00:18] *** Mouse103 has joined #arpnetworks [00:23] hello, anyone who have ipv6 on the vps. are you able to do rdns on your ipv6 range? [00:24] how can it be done? can it be done by setting up ns servers and have ns servers do rdns right? [00:28] Mouse103: that is an option. you can also set ptr-records via the portal if you don't want to run your own ns servers [00:34] ahh [00:34] portal already have support for rdns for ipv6 right? [00:35] yes [00:35] ok cool [00:35] you get your vps after ordering automatically right? or just have wait for admin to setup you right? [00:36] iirc up_the_irons has to do something by hand [00:37] oh ok [01:26] *** Mouse_ has joined #arpnetworks [01:27] *** Mouse103 has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [01:55] *** ifthen has joined #arpnetworks [01:59] On FreeBSD 8.1 I can't seem to find my /etc/pw.config. Anyone know where it is? [01:59] pw.config? [02:00] wrong filename probably but I got it right while searching. [02:00] For use with the pw command [02:01] man pw might have the filename in it. [02:01] I've been there and it says something like that is the default place unless -C is specified. [02:02] /etc/pw.conf is what it says, but I don't have one either. [02:02] so I wonder how the command can work [02:05] without that file somewhere [02:06] maybe I should do a "find" for it.

[16:50] HigJinx that's quite a deal. What do you run on it? [16:55] HighJinx I have never seen xterm on the MacBook air with normal size fonts. At the mac store, they can't show normal size. [16:55] ifthen, just windows 7 home premium 64bit, nothing special just a daily websurfin machine [16:55] HighJinx: nice! [16:57] I wish I could find the right laptop for xterm to access arp [16:58] Asked Lenovo online about FreeBSD support and they referred me to support. Sales didn [16:58] t want to be specific. [16:59] osx is based on FreeBSD [17:00] I would love to go all FreeBSD, HighJinx [17:00] hehe [17:02] UTI do you know offhand if the 9 distro has pw.conf the file as part of basic setup?

[17:59] that should be /etc/pw.conf [18:00] milki why? [18:00] more people might be running fbsd 9 there [18:00] * milki only has fbsd 8 [18:00] but it is this specific install I am interested in.

[18:01] otherwise, install it yourself [18:02] if you install it yourself, then any generic fbsd 9 would work for you...

[19:49] *** HighJinx has joined #arpnetworks [19:57] up_the_irons thanks for clarity. Is it normal to have a missing /etc/pw.conf file on the FreeBSD 8.1 and 8.2 versions arp supplies? [19:59] pw.conf? I don't have one of those. [20:00] ifthen: what specifically are you trying to do? you've been asking about this pw.conf file for.. a while [20:01] I want to use pw on the next upgrade I set up and avoid the disaster of the last setup. I can't use pw if it's broken. [20:02] pw works for me. [20:02] how is pw broken? [20:02] strange it works with a missin file [20:03] what is it doing that it shouldn't be, or not doing that it should? [20:03] That was months ago and I don't remember. [20:04] So why really is it not there? Man says it is normal to be there. [20:04] what version of fbsd are you using? [20:04] 8.1 [20:05] http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/etc/?only_with_tag=RELENG_8_1_0_RELEASE [20:05] there is no default pw.conf, in 8.1 [20:06] ok at last I get it. when is it default? [20:06] so, with that in mind. how is pw broken? what is it doing that it shouldn't? or what is it not doing that it should? [20:06] what *specifically* is the problem you are trying to resolve? [20:06] "While most of the contents of the configuration file may be overridden via command-line options, it may be more convenient to keep standard information in a configuration file. [20:08] I just want to make sure that i have a working pw file for my next upgrade so pw works flawlessly. [20:08] pw.conf [20:08] ok, so again.. what is it not doing, or doing that makes you think it's broken? [20:08] * jpalmer starts to feel like a broken record [20:08] so after upgrading my zfspools and expanding to use the entire disk, it appears that gparts boot code command fuxxored my /boot/loader.conf [20:08] Events I have forgotten. [20:08] ok, so you currently have *no* issues with pw? [20:08] which led to the error: "ZFS: i/o error - all block copies unavailable" [20:09] So far as I can tell, from that repo, there has neve rbeen a pw.conf in base. [20:09] right jpalmer and I don't want any when i upgrade and thanks for your info [20:09] unfortunately, trying to echo the proper settings into loader.conf from the fixit command line gave me a corrupted file, so i had to entire everything by hand over vnc at the boot prompt [20:09] which was fun [20:10] ifthen: so you are trying to resolve a problem that doesn't exist? [20:10] oh yea, and gpart also erased my zfs cache file [20:11] it's called foresight in my book. [20:12] well, I think you have your answer regardless. there is no pw.conf by default. if you want one for whatever reason (that you've yet to explain) feel free to make one [20:12] fink: are you up and running now? [20:13] jpalmer: to some degree, cherokee has decided to conk out, but at least the base system with openvpn is running [20:13] goddamn that took forever [20:15] hmm, probably has something to do with "Could not create semaphore: No space left on device" [20:15] which makes sense, because the kern.ipc settings were in my loader.conf [20:15] what fun [20:29] *** HighJinx has quit IRC (Quit: Computer has gone to sleep.)
