D-Link DWL-G510
I have an D-Link wireless PCI card model DWL-G510. It has an Atheros AR5005G
Chipset. It is not on the list of supported hardware.
My question is how does this work as far as new hardware becoming supported?
Who would I contact to request support for this card. Does some hardware
just never get supported?
I know the right answer is buy a card that is supported. I am looking for
some other answer. I have the card running under FreeBSD using the Project
Evil or 'ndis' drivers. Obviously this is not secure and uses fricking
Windows drivers on BSD a big no-no. (Hence the name...) Nevertheless, I
would like to know if there is a hack to get my card working under OpenBSD.
I am using it as home desktop and want to set up a simple firewall with it.
If you are going to lecture me on how wrong this all his then don't bother
posting I already know about your religious OpenBSD zeal. Indeed I
appreciate your devotion to security and I believe that is one of the most
desirable assets of the OS. If you have hacked a wireless card or other
network card into OpenBSD then let me know.
Thanks,
Ian

ftpchroot syntax
_____
Hello,
Using OBSD 3.6 generic. Have several user IDs set up. Want to allow
ftp access to common area such as /var/spool/pub, but at same time use
/etc/ftpchroot file to "lock up" users in this directory. What is
correct syntax in the /etc/ftpchroot file, and what are correct options
for /usr/libexec/ftpd ?
Currently ftpchroot has:
# $OpenBSD: ftpchroot,v 1.3 1996/07/18 12:12:47 deraadt Exp $
#
# list of users (one per line) given ftp access to a chrooted area.
# read by ftpd(8).
#
# list permitted users
#
user_1
user_2
user_3
and
/usr/libexec/ftpd -l -l -n -D
The above results in users being locked into their home directory. The
man page for ftpd is not clear enough for me. I also checked the
FreeBSD Handbook. The ftpchroot file can specify a directory after the
user name, but that does not seem to work with OBSD.
