Basically, the respondents said NeXT didn't recommend it as they've
found the line noise in longer cables unacceptable.  The pinouts are
listed in the User Manual if anyone is rich/eager enough to take a
chance on it.

Subject: How to set modem baud rate on telnet getty port?
Organization: Hand Held Products, Inc.
Date: Thu, 3 Sep 1992 02:58:35 GMT

I just got a supra v.32bis etc, modem.  I plan to use this with yrrid's ttydsp  
port on an '030.  Yrrid has a (known) bug of some sort that causes a baud rate  
error at the 56.whatever Kbs rate, so I need to use the 38kbs rate.  The modem  
will lock at the terminal rate, but the problem I have is getting that rate set  
in the first place.  The modem auto-bauds to its RS-232 port, but I don't know  
how to get the getty to send it anything to get it set.

I'm probably missing something obvious, but please tell me, anyway!

Well, I don't feel qualified to comment on Netinfo, but I do know that you  
don't want to try to remount a local disk as an NFS mount.  From the info  
you've given, it sounds like on your server you have an automount on  
/usr/local that points to server:/ExternalDisk/local.  You do not need NFS  
for something that is available locally.  I'm not sure if NFS supports an  
NFS server also being its own NFS client.  I think you would confuse it.

What you may want to do is just make a soft link on your server that  
points /usr/local to /ExternalDisk/local.  The server already has  
/ExternalDiak mounted as a local filesystem, you wouldn't be able to  
export it if it wasn't; you don't need to mount it a second time, and you  
certainly don't want to mount NFS if you can mount BSD (or is it Mach?).   
There's probably people who know more about NFS, perhaps they'd care to  
comment?

Organization: Universitaet Bielefeld

We ve had similar problems as Stefano Pagiola a while ago. Here s a summary of  
the responses I ve got, again. Some of the points are not useful in this  
special case, but of general interest, if you want to improve security.
In our case a hacker probably used the rdist security whole.


1. Is your public sound port on?

2. Check the /etc/cron*

3. Check the lastcomm (/usr/adm/acct on my system) file.
   Before that you must do
       # accton /usr/adm/acct
   Then you can use "sa" to obtain a list of all commands and the user who
   ran it since then.      

4. Are you aware of the rdist promlem?
   There is a security hole in rdist. A fixed version of rdist for NeXT is 
   available at sonata.cc.purdue.edu.
   'rsh' uses the .rhost file in a user's home directory or the global
   /etc/hosts.equiv file.  If a remote user is allowed access via these files
   then no amount of password changing will stop them.


5. There are known methods of attack.  finger, sendmail,  old versions of 
   emacs, ...

6. REMOVE any pd apps you received in binary form.  NEVER AND I MEAN NEVER 
   install pd binaries on ANY machine.  If you can't get the source for the pd    
   stuff then don't install it.

7. Give the machines a boot password.  Anybody can bring a NeXT to single user 
   mode and change password

8. Run Crack and COPS once a week.  (Crack and COPS are available on 
   ftp.uu.net)

9. Do "% /usr/etc/rpcinfo -p"

   If you see a line that begins with 100017 and ends with rexd,
   you have a gaping security hole that allows anyone to execute
   arbitrary commands as any non-root user (and with any group
   access, including wheel group) with essentially no logging.

   Fix: edit /etc/inetd.conf, find the line

   rexd/1         stream  rpc/tcp wait root /usr/etc/rpc.rexd      rpc.rexd

   and insert a # at the beginning.  Then

	"# kill -HUP <inetd's pid>"

   (or reboot).

Is there any way to make it so that only a root process can retrieve
any information from NetInfo?  I had originally thought that just by chaning
the permissions on niload/nidump I would be okay, but then I found this
program "pwget" that shows the password file.  Any ideas?

That's fine if you are the only user of the system.  If you are the only one
using your machine, stick perl in /usr/local/software/thats/really/neat, and
even put sh wherever you want too.

But when you have a multi-user environment, and new users coming in, they
expect that programs will be in certain commonly known locations, like sh
and perl.  I don't neccesarily like where it goes, but that is where most
people expect to find it.

I have reported this problem to the beta bug mailing list, but other than an  
acknowledgement, I received no reply.  Now that 3.0 is out, (but I don't yet  
have it), I need some net advice on what to do.  I absolutely have to get some  
floppies made.

I insert a brand new Toshiba PMF-2ED "4mb" floppy into my PLI SuperFloppy 2.88  
SCSI drive.  It correctly reports that it is unreadable, and I select  
"initialize".

According to the console, the formatting works ok, but when newfs is run, it  
reports this:

...

This "cg 0: bad magic number" is a problem.  I have tried doing all most of the  
initializing manually, but I always get a "bad magic number" report before  
failure.  Now I have 3 questions:

1. Has anyone else had this problem on 3.0PR2 (or PR1)?

2. Is there anything else I can try?

3. What the hell is the magic number, anyway?

Subject: kernel flags
Organization: Wolfram Research, Inc.
Date: Mon, 24 Aug 1992 01:07:50 GMT


Last week some questions were posted about what some kernel flags mean.   
her is a short list form a file called power_on.rtfd by Wayde Schroeder
from SupportBulletin Volume 1, Issue 1	Summer 1991.  I beleave this file  
to be on the archives someplace.  The same info (rewriten) is in the 3.0  
Admin docs.  The following text is taken directly from the above file.  I  
have omited much of the file.

boot flags
Boot flags are used to specify boot options. The flags are preceded by a  
hyphen (-). When you specify boot flags, if no kernel name is given, the  
default mach kernel will be used. General usage when working from the ROM  
monitor includes adding the boot flags:

	bxx [kernel] -[flags]

flags include:

	-a	Ask for the name of the root device.
	-b	Boot without running /etc/rc.boot.
	-s	Boot in single-user mode.
	-i	Ask for the name of the init program.
	-p	Don't auto-reboot on a panic.

Examples:

	bsd -s
	ben -bs
	bfd mymach -as


and another 

kernel variables
The complete list of kernel variables may be unique to each kernel built.  
This section  discusses variables that  will continue to be included in  
future releases and describes how they are used in various situations.  
General usage when working from the ROM monitor includes adding the kernel  
variables:

bxx [kernel] -[flags] [kvars]

where kvars includes the following kernel variables:

mem=nnnn	Use only nnnn KB of memory even though more is actually  
installed (for example, 1024 is 1 MB). Useful when measuring the impact of  
adding more (or less) memory.

init=path	Run path instead of /etc/mach_init.

rootdev=xxx	Use xxx (for example, sd1, od0, en0, fd0) as root device  
when boot device is different

rootdir=path	Use directory path as root point. 

rootrw=1	Mount the root read/write initially. At boot, the root is  
normally mounted read-only. If fsck runs clean during rc.boot, it's  
remounted read-write.

cache=0 	Disable the on-chip caches.

pagesize=4096	Use physical pages half as large (default is 8192). This  
usually makes things worse.

Examples:

bod - rootdev=sd0 ( - needed when kernel name not given)
bsd newmach -p mem=4096


Here's an example of booting from an external floppy device when the  
internal disk is sd0, and the external floppy disk is sd1. Be sure to  
insert the MkMagic bootable floppy disk in the external floppy disk drive  
before you execute the following command:

	NeXT> bsd(1,0,0) - rootdev=sd1a

Shutdown.  NeXT Computer, Inc., 1990.

Most versions of "cu" I have seen allow you to "cu -l ttyxx"

Am I doing something wrong, have something misconfigured or is

Check out the man pages for nidump, niload, and niutil.  The
first two are conveniences for UNIX weenies.  niutil provides
"low level" access and can do most things one might use

(replace the rm and rp with the correct names on your system), and
enter the "other" system in each /etc/host.lpd file. 
Oh yes, don't forget to niload the modified printcap back into netinfo
memory. 
[I usually nidump critical files like princap, passwd, fstab, each
night, so I have up-to-date copies to work with as backups, in case
netinfo gets corrupted.]

Is there a file that gets executed at shutdown, like rc and rc.local get  
executed at startup?

does anyone know how to make a host with no actual resident news 
database (ie, reading via NNTP protocol) can send news to a UUCP host?
I've looked through the c-news docs, and it doesn't seem to mention
anything.

Please respond by email.
