Tips and Tricks:NetBSD :: rc.conf sample file for DHCP and WPA Supplicant

This is just a sample based on my own settings.
Enjoy! :)

# Use program=YES to enable program, NO to disable it. program_flags are
# passed to the program on the command line.

# Load the defaults in from /etc/defaults/rc.conf (if it's readable).
# These can be overridden below.

# This enables dhcp client  for all interfaces
# If you want to restrict or limit configuration, please
# take a look at dhcpcd.conf(5).
#dhcpcd=YES

# This is for stopping lease waiting if AP is out of reach
dhcpcd_flags="-q -b"

# Interfaces to be configured.

# Sets the net_interfaces variable to the output of ifconfig(8)
# with the ``-l'' flag and suppresses warnings about interfaces in
# this list that do not have an ifconfig file or variable
#auto_ifconfig=YES

# For each interface xxN, the system first looks for ifconfig
# parameters in the variable ifconfig_xxN, and then in the file
# /etc/ifconfig.xxN.
# Information in either the variable or the file is parsed
# identically, except that, if the variable contains a single
# line with embedded semicolons, the the value is split into
# multiple lines prior to further parsing, treating the semicolon
# as a line separator.
net_interfaces="re0 urtw0"

# This is overridden because we have /etc/ifconfig.xxN files ;-)
#ifconfig_re0=dhcp
#ifconfig_urtw0=dhcp

# This tells how to use wPA Supplicant
wpa_supplicant=YES
wpa_supplicant_flags="-B -i urtw0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf"

Tips and Tricks:NetBSD :: WPA Supplicant configuration

This is just a sample configuration for wpa_supplicant.
You can download it to /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf and ajust to your needs!

enjoy! :)

# This is an example file.

# WPA Supplicant stuff
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=wheel

# Network configurations
# network={
#    ssid="AP_NAME"

#    # a higher value means a network is more desirable.
#    # By default networks have priority 0.
#    priority=10
#
#    # Technique 0 scans for the
#    # SSID using a broadcast Probe Request frame while 1 uses a
#    # directed Probe Request frame.  Access points that cloak them-
#    # selves by not broadcasting their SSID require technique 1, but
#    # beware that this scheme can cause scanning to take longer to complete
#    scan_ssid=0

#    # WPA-PSK (WPA pre-shared key), WPA-EAP (WPA using EAP authentication)
#    # IEEE8021X (IEEE 802.1x using EAP authentication and,

#    # static WEP keys).
#    # If not set this defaults to "WPA-PSK WPA-EAP".

Overflow Testing Tools

So you just finished writing your super software, hum!?

Well, could you tell me, for sure, if it's protected against overflows? Really? :)
I think these guys could help you answering that question! Give them a try!  ;-)

apt-get install bfbtester rats pscan flawfinder splint


That was a nice one, don't you think?

FIN!

Cool colorized log files!

Hi there!
Want to see your scrambled log files on full colors?
Let's go straight to the point! No time to waste! ;-)

apt-get install ccze
tail -f /var/log/messages | ccze

For additional info, try launching ccze --help and also take a look at /etc/cczerc !

That was quick!

Now, just ACK my FIN!

See ya! :)
