adding flooding IP addresses to tables and flushing states
|
|
(<i>max-src-conn-rate</i>, <i>overload <table></i>,
|
|
<i>flush global</i>).
|
|

|
|
Spamd will automatically blacklist hosts that attempt to deliver mail to a
|
|
spamtrap address while greylisted.
|
|

<h3>How to install</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Following this are the instructions which you would have on a piece of
|
|
paper if you had purchased a CDROM set instead of doing an alternate
|
|
form of install. The instructions for doing an FTP (or other style
|
|
of) install are very similar; the CDROM instructions are left intact
|
|
so that you can see how much easier it would have been if you had
|
|
purchased a CDROM instead.
|
|
<p>
|
|

release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
|
|
to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write

<i>CD1:3.7/i386/floppy37.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Use <i>CD1:3.7/i386/floppyB37.fs</i> instead for greater SCSI controller
|
|
support, or <i>CD1:3.7/i386/floppyC37.fs</i> for better laptop support.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
|
|
you can install across the network using PXE as described in
|
|
the included INSTALL.i386 document.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
|
|
read INSTALL.i386.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
|
|
at <i>CD1:3.7/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS,
|
|
use the <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dd.1">dd(1)</a>
|
|
utility. The following is an example usage of
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dd.1">dd(1)</a>,
|
|
where the device could be "floppy", "rfd0c", or
|
|
"rfd0a".
|
|
|
|
<blockquote><pre>
|
|
# <kbd>dd if=<file> of=/dev/<device> bs=32k</kbd>
|
|
</pre></blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Make sure you use properly formatted perfect floppies with NO BAD BLOCKS or
|
|
your install will most likely fail. For more information on creating a boot
|
|
floppy and installing OpenBSD/i386 please refer to
|
|
<a href="faq/faq4.html#MkFlop">this page</a>.
|
|

<h3>OpenBSD/vax:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Boot over the network via mopbooting as described in INSTALL.vax.
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenBSD/amd64:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The 3.7 release of OpenBSD/amd64 is located on CD2.
|
|
Boot from the CD to begin the install - you may need to adjust
|
|
your BIOS options first.
|
|
If you can't boot from the CD, you can create a boot floppy to install from.
|
|
To do this, write <i>CD2:3.7/amd64/floppy37.fs</i> to a floppy, then
|
|
boot from the floppy drive.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
|
|
you can install across the network using PXE as described in the included
|
|
INSTALL.amd64 document.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you are planning to dual boot OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
|
|
read INSTALL.amd64.
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenBSD/macppc:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Put CD2 in your CDROM drive and poweron your machine while holding down the
|
|
<i>C</i> key until the display turns on and shows <i>OpenBSD/macppc boot</i>.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Alternatively, at the Open Firmware prompt, enter <i>boot cd:,ofwboot
|
|
/3.7/macppc/bsd.rd</i>
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenBSD/sparc:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The 3.7 release of OpenBSD/sparc is located on CD3. To boot off of this CD you
|
|
can use one of the two commands listed below, depending on the version of your
|
|
ROM.
|
|
|
|
<blockquote><pre>
|
|
ok <kbd>boot cdrom 3.7/sparc/bsd.rd</kbd>
|
|
or
|
|
> <kbd>b sd(0,6,0)3.7/sparc/bsd.rd</kbd>
|
|
</pre></blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If your SPARC system does not have a CD drive, you can alternatively boot from floppy.
|
|
To do so you need to write <i>CD3:3.7/sparc/floppy37.fs</i> to a floppy.
|
|
For more information see <a href="faq/faq4.html#MkFlop">this page</a>.
|
|
To boot from the floppy use one of the two commands listed below,
|
|
depending on the version of your ROM.
|
|
|
|
<blockquote><pre>
|
|
ok <kbd>boot floppy</kbd>
|
|
or
|
|
> <kbd>boot fd()</kbd>
|
|
</pre></blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Make sure you use a properly formatted floppy with NO BAD BLOCKS or your install
|
|
will most likely fail.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If your SPARC system doesn't have a floppy drive nor a CD drive, you can either
|
|
setup a bootable tape, or install via network, as told in the
|
|
INSTALL.sparc file.
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenBSD/sparc64:</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Put CD3 in your CDROM drive and type <i>boot cdrom</i>.
|

<i>CD3:3.7/sparc64/floppy37.fs</i> to a floppy and boot it with <i>boot
|
|
floppy</i>.<br>
|
|
Make sure you use a properly formatted floppy with NO BAD BLOCKS or your install
|
|
will most likely fail.
|
|
|
|

<h3>Notes about the source code</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>src.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src</code>.
|
|
This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources, which are
|
|
in a separate archive. To extract:
|
|
<blockquote><pre>
|
|
# <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src</kbd>
|
|
# <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
|
|
# <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</kbd>
|
|
</pre></blockquote>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>sys.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src/sys</code>.
|
|
This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
|
|
To extract:
|
|
<blockquote><pre>
|
|
# <kbd>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</kbd>
|
|
# <kbd>cd /usr/src</kbd>
|
|
# <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</kbd>
|
|
</pre></blockquote>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
|
|
is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
|
|
described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
|
|
Using these files
|
|
results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
|
|
a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

<h3>How to upgrade</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you already have an OpenBSD 3.6 system, and do not want to reinstall,
|
|
upgrade instructions and advice can be found in the
|
|
<a href="faq/upgrade37.html">Upgrade Guide</a>.

<h3>Ports Tree</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
|
|
<blockquote><pre>
|
|
# <kbd>cd /usr</kbd>
|
|
# <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</kbd>
|
|
</pre></blockquote>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <i>ports/</i> subdirectory is a checkout of the OpenBSD ports tree. Go
|
|
read the <a href="faq/faq15.html">ports</a> page
|
|
if you know nothing about ports
|
|
at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
|
|
Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
|
|
OpenBSD ports system.
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for
|
|
<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/cvs.1">cvs(1)</a> if
|
|
you aren't familiar with CVS) checkout of our ports. As with our complete
|
|
source tree, our ports tree is available via anoncvs. So, in
|
|
order to keep current with it, you must make the <i>ports/</i> tree
|
|
available on a read-write medium and update the tree with a command
|
|
like:
|
|
<blockquote><pre>
|
|
# <kbd>cd [portsdir]/; cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_3_7</kbd>
|
|
</pre></blockquote>
|
|
<p>
|
|
[Of course, you must replace the local directory and server name here
|
|
with the location of your ports collection and a nearby anoncvs
|
|
server.]
|
|
<p>
|
|
Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
|
|
packages for the 3.7 release will be made available if problems arise.
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
|
|
would like to know more, the mailing list
|
|
<a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
