Install issues

I just recently installed OpenBSD 3.0

However, I have some issues related to networking:

1.	I cannot resolve or ping any addresses outside my network.
Resolv.conf is set up to point to an outside DNS server, but it is
unable to reach it through the default gateway.
2.	OpenBSD machine IP address is 192.168.1.105, default gateway
(192.168.1.5) is a Netscreen-5 VPN/Firewall/Router, which maps
192.168.1.105 (OpenBSD machine) to external IP address 68.15.81.28
3.	Can telnet to 192.168.1.5 and ping it
4.	Following error messages appear periodically on command prompt:

		ewray2# Feb 28 15:49:29 ewray2 /bsd: arp: ether address
is multicast for IP address 192.168.1.104!
		Feb 28 15:51:29 ewray2 /bsd: arp: ether address is
multicast for IP address 192.168.1.104!
		Feb 28 15:53:29 ewray2 last message repeated 7 times
		Feb 28 15:55:29 ewray2 last message repeated 13 times

		192.168.1.104 (mapped to 68.15.81.26) is a Windows 2000
Advanced Server machine running DNS.  I also have a Linux machine
(192.168.1.102 mapped to 68.15.81.27) running SSH, DNS and sendmail
servers, another Linux machine (192.168.1.200 mapped to 68.15.81.30)
running an Apache Webserver, and a Windows 2000 laptop at 192.168.1.101
(mapped to 68.15.81.26).

		I am able to SSH into the OpenBSD macine from the Linux
(192.168.1.102) and Windows 2000 laptop (192.168.1.101), but not the
Windows 2000 Advanced Server (192.168.1.104) machine.

I'm guessing that problem is in a configuration of w2k. MAC address of
your NIC (on OpenBSD) is configured as multicast for IP 192.168.1.104
(w2k). I don't know much about multicast but I think (on 99%) that you
don't need it in your net and try to reconfigure net options of w2k.

Re: Apache upgrade woes - SSL problems (OpenBSD 2.8) (fwd)

Appologies for "top posting", but I wanted to share with
the list a conversation I've been having with Scott (trying
not to clutter the list too much).

For those of you that have upgraded your OpenSSL installs
on OpenBSD, what method have you used?  My main problem is
that I would like to install 0.9.6c, and have it _replace_
the current version installed with OpenBSD.  It doesn't
appear to be a simple undertaking, as OpenSSL and OpenBSD
don't install things in the same places.

Please see below the questions I have posed, and Scott's
answers.  I'd really appreciate it if someone could point
me in the direction of the "correct" way to upgrade
OpenSSL (especially since I would like a version slightly
newer than what is availible via CVS).

Recap:  OpenBSD 2.8-STABLE + Apache 1.3.23 + SSL won't
build, no fix found.

Thanks folks!

Benny

Re: Speed optimization of a C program

Try to find something on www.netlib.org. This site is full of numerical
libraries mostly writen by pros and are very efficient.

Have you restarted syslogd?

Yes, because pfctl -N is for activating NAT Rules. You want to do
/sbin/pfctl -R /etc/pf.conf

Kernel Upgrade went wrong

HI there,

I did a anoncvs on my machine to rebuild the kernel and source
but after downloading updated sources, I recompile the new kernel 
with the steps given and when I reboot the machine
it went into debug mode where it ask me to do either trace or ps .
I couldn't copy the output to include it here.

How can I revert back to the old kernel ? Or is there a way
for me to still run the new kernel ?

Your help is much appreciated..

Assuming you followed all the instructions, try this at the boot prompt:

boot> boot -a
boot> boot wd0a/bsd.old

That's off the top of my head & could be a little bit off, but that's 
the general idea. Obviously, use sd0a with a SCSI disk, etc.

Doesn't sound like it.

Re: NIC, mouse not working (OBSD 2.9, Dell Dimension P75); reading dmesg?

Nick and Jason, thanks for the great information.  For the hell of it, I did
yank the soundcard & modem, and grabbed myself a serial mouse.  Still no
mention in dmesg, but SuperProbe found it OK.

And just so no one thinks I'm crazy, I need X for a reason... this
will-be-firewall does not like to talk to the Cable Co.'s network (I think
the modem is looking for the "authorized" MAC address in my other PC), and I
need a graphical browser so that I can see what the 3Com "Shark Fin" cable
modem is up to is up to... negotiating frames is a bear in lynx.

Again, Thanks...

You didn't provide many details.
