Sorry about the newbey nature of this question. In windows 95 there is a Dialer that I set up to use the modem and some TCP/IP parameters. Then I click "OK" and it works.

What should I do now to get my modem sing ? what commands should I type in, what utilities to use? I also installed Kermit but I don't know how to use it (and rather not actually).

Why? Because the scheme for assigning names and numbers to the slices was very odd, and some of the needed nodes in /dev just weren't there. The C: partition of the disk came out as wd1s1, which seems reasonable. But D: didn't come out at wd1s2. Instead, it came out at wd1s5. (I couldn't make 2-4 do anything). And successive logical drives came out at 6, 7, 8, etc. While the error messages from the mount command showed that it considered the partitions to be numbered as wd1s (where n went up to 12), they couldn't be mounted until I used /dev/MAKEDEV to create a device node for each one. I've got them all working and in FSTAB now, but it was quite the puzzle. What is the rationale behind the numbering scheme? Are s1,s2,s3,and s4 the primary partitions? If so, shouldn't the logical drives really be s1a, s1b, s1c, etc.? And, , is there an easy way to generate (or have the system generate) the /dev nodes automatically? I might one day stick in a Jaz cartridge with more partitions than before and need to read it in a hurry. --Brett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 2 05:34:05 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id FAA07052 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 2 Aug 1998 05:34:05 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cyclone.degnet.baynet.de (cyclone.degnet.baynet.de [194.95.214.129]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id FAA07038 for ; Sun, 2 Aug 1998 05:34:00 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from malte.lance@gmx.net) Received: from neuron.webmore.de (unverified [194.95.214.188]) by cyclone.degnet.baynet.de (EMWAC SMTPRS 0.83) with SMTP id ; Sun, 02 Aug 1998 14:35:46 +0200 Received: (from malte.lance@gmx.net) by neuron.webmore.de (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA01051; Sun, 2 Aug 1998 14:32:27 +0200 (CEST) From: Malte Lance MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Date: Sun, 2 Aug 1998 14:32:26 +0200 (CEST) To: "Daniel Lee" Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: question about two NICs In-Reply-To: <19980801222039.8724.qmail@hotmail.com> References: <19980801222039.8724.qmail@hotmail.com> X-Mailer: VM 6.43 under 20.4 "Emerald" XEmacs Lucid Message-ID: <13764.20565.844946.217582@neuron.webmore.de> Reply-To: malte.lance@gmx.net Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Daniel Lee writes: > Hi, > > I have a problem regarding of configurating two network cards > on my FreeBSD 2.2.7.

You ifconfig'ed without specifying a netmask, correct ? Then a netmask of 0xffffff00 is assumed in your case (depends on the nature of the IP-address IIRC; have a look at "man route") Applying a netmask of 0xffffff00 to the IP-addresses 10.10.10.3 and 10.10.10.5 gives the same network. Now ifconfig complains that you want to assign the same network to different devices. Try to give an explicit "netmask" argument to ifconfig.

I also need an editor which is highly configurable, including a tag library and all the stuff which is uncluded in Homesite. As a sumary: I need a program which is only build for HTML programing and nothing else. Any suggestions whould be appreciated.

A LaTeX file CAN be made into html w/ the latex2html utility in the ports. That said there are a couple of editors in the ports tree for HTML: asWedit - at 3.0, their website claims 4.0 is on its way, but ... ashe - also in the ports emacs (Xemacs) - not pure HTML editor, but does have extensions for programming in html - in the ports collection tkHTML - not in the ports, but it's just a tk app so w/ the correct version of tk it should run fine Not sure any of these are what you're looking for but give them a look.

Intel's stepping levels are different models of the same CPU. You should also read LINT and look at the options for the different CPUs.

The "cdrecord" port works great for writing CDs. Note that your drive will be recognized as a CD-ROM and work just fine for that, but to write to it you need special software (like cdrecord). CDRs are not capable of doing block-at-a-time writes, like a disk drive or optical drive. You can dump a whole filesystem directly to a CDRW using cdrecord and mkisofs: mkisofs -a -l -L -R -r | \ (sleep 300; cdrecord -v speed=2 -datadev=XXX -) the sleep allows mkisofs time to work through creating the TOC and be able to provide a continuous stream of data to the recorder. cdrecord also allows you to make audio CDs with no problem.

Make the ISP section of your ppp.conf look something like your_isp: set phone 5551212 deny chap accept pap set authname your_userid set authkey your_password set openmode active set timeout 600 And start ppp with ppp -alias -auto your_isp I do this with a script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d that just runs the above command.

It does, but only for the .htaccess stuff, it'll build and run just fine without DES aside from .htaccess. Also, there's no install target in the Makefile, well there is a no-op one in 1.3.x, didn't used to be any at all. Where did you get the source you were building from ?

First things first, build your kernel with: options IPFIREWALL options IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT options IPDIVERT now, default to accept isnt necessary but i'd use it just to be safe.... after you build your kernel, do a quick edit of your /etc/rc.conf and change these values: firewall_enable="YES" firewall_type="/etc/rc.firewall" gateway_enable="YES" firewall_type is now pointing to another file named /etc/rc.firewall which is something i made up so dont expect to figure that one out.. now what you need to do is open an editor (vi, ee, joe, pico, etc) on your /etc/rc.firewall file (will be a new file) and enter these lines, which i happened to have taken directly from the natd man page, but work perfectly: /sbin/ipfw -f flush /sbin/ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via ppp0 /sbin/ipfw add pass all from any to any ppp0 is what you need to change to your public network interface.. for me, i unfortunately dont have ether to the internet, i have a lousy dialup ppp connection, but it works.. if you have ethernet, use the interface (i.e. de0, ed0, etc) that actually talks to the internet. now you need to edit your /etc/services file.... you need to add a separate line with this in it: natd 8668/divert #NATD next is for your natd rules.... for this i used a file called /etc/natd.conf in which i have the following lines: use_sockets same_ports interface ppp0 again, use the same interface that you did with your /etc/rc.firewall (its the PUBLIC network interface) ok now we're getting close... what i did then was edit my /etc/rc.local to start up natd automagically... i did it by modifying the "starting local daemons" part.. i dont remember exactly what it looked like before but this is waht it looks like now: echo -n 'starting local daemons:' echo -n ' natd' ; /usr/sbin/natd -f /etc/natd.conf as you can see it starts natd wit the options file (-f) /etc/natd.conf . If all goes well it should fork :) and not leave you hanging. if it does just ^C it on bootup but you shouldnt have to worry about that.. with all this information, im making a huge assumption that you have your ifconfig's all setup w/ the right netmask, and ip address' and whatnot. the only other thing that i did was make the gateway on the local machines the same as the IP# of the natd machine.. one last quick reboot w/ your new kernel and all your new settings, and you should be good to go.. also dont forget to set the DNS ip's on the local machines to whatever your natd machine uses... good luck and let me know if it worked :) if it did i'll show you some other settings i use to let me telnet into the local machines on special ports from the internet, etc....

(?) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, Installation question.. I'm trying to install FreeBSD 2.2.6 (from the Walnut Creek CD-ROM) on a Dell PC (Pentium II/400Mhx/64Mb with standard 6GB IDE HD and ATAPI CD-ROM plus S3 Virge card - which the doc's say FreeBSD does support). When installing from CD-ROM (via direct booting at startup) I get to a blue screen with 'Probing devices, please wait..' and then it just sits there. (I once tried leaving it for an hour like that, but it didn't do anything). How do I get around this problem? I though it might be a disk format problem (there's a 3GB Windows NT partition on it, which I'm not using, I promise ;-) but I've tried it with the other half of the disk as DOS FAT, as free space and even once as a Linux native partition, all with no luck, it always stops at the same point, although I did get setup.exe to copy the installation files across to the DOS partition. I'd have no problem with erasing the whole disk if that would help, but I can't imagine that it would make any difference? With so few clues to go on it's hard to see what to try next. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.. Jeremy.

Ummm WHERES XFree86 in the cam release it seems to be missing, and /stand/sysinstall refuses to let me install the 2.2.7-RELEASE of just the X package.... so now im tied, hands crossed and slightly dis-illusioned at FreeBSD.... Hrmmm sum this up.... 2.2.7-RELEASE no Adaptec capabilities apply patches, Ummm this bombed big time try to install the 2.2CAM release hey that worked....... but NO X this seems very futile and very broken to me..... is there a real logical solution to the SCSI problem under 2.2.7 with X capabilities.......... ???? basically if i can somehow install X on the SCSI build id be 100% happy and satisfied, not that i ever want to fight with a unix distribution like this for three days again...!!! After all i hate to mention the other OS with the letter L* in it, but it does support my controller, and X at the same time, no this isnt a rip, more of a plea to help complete my workstation build. I dont want to go back, to the other side.... i want to stay with freebsd, but it has to run X and support my scsi controller.... Any and ALL help will be much appreciated..... Thanks, in advance Dazed, Tired, X-Bewildered & SCSI-Confused PS.... can someone FIX THIS, cause I know alot of us are using the newer adaptec series controllers, if nothing else at least add XFree86 to the CAM distributions......

Are you sure you haven't installed another kernel with the port disabled? It's disabled by default in most config files. If that's the case, use UserConfig to reenable it.

References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG hello actually you do not need to use natd with ppp! there is an a lot easier way to do ip masquerading! here is a caption from; man ppp Supports packet aliasing. Packet aliasing (a.k.a. IP masquerading) al- lows computers on a private, unregistered network to access the Internet. The PPP host acts as a masquerading gateway. IP addresses as well as TCP and UDP port numbers are aliased for outgoing packets and de-aliased for returning packets. also near the end of the man page PACKET ALIASING The -alias command line option enables packet aliasing. This allows the ppp host to act as a masquerading gateway for other computers over a lo- cal area network. Outgoing IP packets are aliased so that they appear to come from the ppp host, and incoming packets are de-aliased so that they are routed to the correct machine on the local area network. Packet aliasing allows computers on private, unregistered subnets to have Inter- net access, although they are invisible from the outside world. In gen- eral, correct ppp operation should first be verified with packet aliasing disabled. Then, the -alias option should be switched on, and network ap- plications (web browser, telnet(1), ftp(1), ping(8), traceroute(8)) should be checked on the ppp host. Finally, the same or similar applica- tions should be checked on other computers in the LAN. If network appli- cations work correctly on the ppp host, but not on other machines in the LAN, then the masquerading software is working properly, but the host is either not forwarding or possibly receiving IP packets. Check that IP forwarding is enabled in /etc/rc.conf and that other machines have desig- nated the ppp host as the gateway for the LAN.

Until I have more details, everything's possible. How about answers to some of these: 1. Can you stop the telnet (either with ^] or with kill -9 from another window)? 2. Does this happen only when connecting to this specific machine, or does it happen with others? 3. Does rlogin work? There are plenty more questions where those come from, but they'll do for a start. If you have any other comments, that would help too. > the only bizarre messages at system log is > >> Aug 1 20:47:03 finland sendmail[23115]: UAA23115: SYSERR(root): collect: >> Aug 1 21:17:45 finland tac_plus[23325]: Error 195.174.18.254 > tty88: Null There are messages missing here.

At one time they listed the supported video cards, but it is possible that I missed it. >From your message I gather that you can't select your video card using XF86Setup, is that correct? Can you select a genric video card and get a basic setup started even at a low resolution? How far into the setup process do you get before you have problems? When doing the setup you will need to know the horizontal and vertical sync specs for your monitor. It could be possible that you card is not supported. Try to get a basic server setup going and re-post you results. CC freebsd-questions in your posts as there maybe others that can help.

I have first copied the Generic Kernel, created, edited & saved the new one, used /usr/sbin/config [kernel name] to build it. It builds successfully. This is exactly how I added the section dealing with the sb16: # PNP Driver conroller pnp0 # Sound controller snd0 device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq5 drq1 vector sbintr device sbxvi0 at isa? drq 5 device sbmidi0 at isa? port 0x330 Then, when I do the following: # cd ../../compile/[kernel name] # make it appears to also be successful. But then when it appears to be loading the new kernel, I get this output: loading kernel igmp.0: Undefined symbol '_loif' referenced from text segment ip_output.0: Undefined symbol 'looutput' referenced in text segment ***Error code 1 stop I have gone back with "ee" and looked at the kernel, and it appears to be okay, so far as I know (which is very little :) ). Can anyone point me in a good direction for tracing my problem? I also did a search for text that seemed to be highlighted in the error code (e.g. _loif); but the searches turned up no matches. Did I enter the relevant pnp and sb drive info in the wrong location? Again, thank you all for your generosity with your expertise.

"dmesg | grep ^CPU" will do the trick: (machine1) CPU: i486 DX2 (486-class CPU) (machine2) CPU: AMD Am5x86 Write-Through (486-class CPU) (machine3) CPU: Pentium/P54C (132.61-MHz 586-class CPU) (machine4) CPU: Pentium II (quarter-micron) (398.29-MHz 686-class CPU) Note that on machine 2, an AMD 5x86 really only supports 486 instructions. According to identcpu.c, a "Cyrix 6x86" is a souped-up 486, but a "Cyrix 6x86MX" supports 686 instructions. Looking at the kernel source though, I doubt you'll get much of a performance increase by commenting out unneeded cputypes. Just leave 486, 586, and 686 in, and you won't have to worry about recompiling your kernel if you swap CPUs. -Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 2 22:14:39 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA27591 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 2 Aug 1998 22:14:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ada.somerville.qld.edu.au ([203.16.236.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id WAA27580 for ; Sun, 2 Aug 1998 22:14:28 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from alex@muse.org.au) Received: from titania (titania [203.16.236.6]) by ada.somerville.qld.edu.au (8.6.11/8.6.11) with SMTP id PAA18925 for ; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 15:22:08 +1000 Message-Id: <3.0.5.32.19980803151448.009f4a00@ada.somerville.qld.edu.au> X-Sender: alexh@ada.somerville.qld.edu.au X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.5 (32) Date: Mon, 03 Aug 1998 15:14:48 +1000 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Alex Helbig Subject: Source Routed packets Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi all, I have 2.2.7-RELEASE installed in a box which will become a firewall.

This card uses a digital 21140-AF chip which 2.2.7 recognises as de0. The card is 10/100 autosensing. I have just upgraded from 2.2.6-RELEASE to 2.2.7-RELEASE. In the 2.2.6 machine the card I used was a 3Com 3c905-TX 10/100 autosense card. The supported hardware list indicates that the code to support this model 3Com card was a little buggy so I thought I'd use the opportunity to change cards when I changed to the new release 2.2.7. Since the upgrade I have installed and everything is working correctly, except that roughly every two seconds I get a message on the console saying: de0: link down: cable problem? But it all works! Any ideas why the error message? Points to note: * I am running up the box on a 10Mb segment not the 100Mb where it will eventually be. But the 3com card was quite happy yo move back and forth between speeds. * I never tried the DEC based card under 2.2.6 to know if the problem existed there too. * I have tried using ifconfig to set each of the LINK0-2 flags and no setting of this seems to make any difference. Suggestions appreciated.

You install it _next to_ Win95 on your harddrive. When FreeBSD runsit has nothing to do with windows. When windows runs it has nothign to do with FreeBSD. It does not matter what file system the partition is. When FreeBSD is done with it it will be the "Berkeley Fast File System" file system, otherwise known as ufs.

Is it on make install that it errors out? If I am correct the error should occur on the make protion of the process, not on the make install. You may try doing the kernel build with the sound stuff commented out and see if it builds. I don't expect too much from that but it would rule out the sound config.

However, I've got a new phenomenon happening; I hope someone can enlighten me: Most of the time, my server sits at about 60 processes, 30 of which are httpd. However, every so often (every two days or so), the number of httpd processes will suddenly just start building up; old processes won't close, and I'll look and find 200 or 300 httpd processes sitting idle and not allowing any new ones to spawn. The output of netstat shows that most of the dead connections are in the TIME_WAIT state; restarting httpd will kill the dead processes (they go zombie, and then the process leader kills them on the second or third round of kill signals), but the connections remain open in TIME_WAIT. Apache's server-info handler page shows that all the dead connections are still in the "W" (write) phase. What's going on here? I don't want to have to keep running top to see whether the server's going haywire every few minutes.

As X doesn't give a toss about CAM or non-CAM systems, it would be a bit of a waste of space to come up with a whole separate directory of duplicated X stuff. Although an explicit note about that might be nice or even a symbolic link should work I'd have thought. I'm speculating from a state of ignorance about all of the issues however. Anyway, to get X installed, I would expect (though have not tested) you just need to 1) use the 'options' selection in the '/stand/sysinstall' main menu to set the 'Release Name' to '2.2.7-RELEASE'. 2) select the 'configure' option in the '/stand/sysinstall' main menu to then select the 'Distributions' options and specify a 'custom' distribution that includes only the relevant XF86332 material. (of course you'll have to specify a ftp site and possibly some other more minor items).

I'm having a problem with an internal modem in Freak-2.2.6 and other comports aswell. The BSD won't detect even a single-one of those ports, unless they're forced from BIOS to use 3f8 and 3e8 or what were those addresses. Okay, then comes the problem. It won't detect my modem since it's a plug&play modem. It should use it's own comport, COM3, but BSD won't detect it, no matter what configuration options i use from BIOS. And if I force the modem over COM1 or 2, the bios whines about a COMportConfiGurAtiOn failure or some horses**t like that. Is there any freebsd releases that would support internal modems or plug&play devices on ISA BUS? The funniest thing is that the same kernel found the modem automatically when it was attached to a 486 with Award BIOS. Now it's connected to P350 686 with PhoenixBIOS. Windows98 finds it by default. Win95 won't find it unless I force the modem to use some Intergalactic IRQ's ... --core To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 3 03:48:02 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id DAA04788 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 03:48:02 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from jazz.snu.ac.kr (jazz.snu.ac.kr [147.46.59.52]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id DAA04766 for ; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 03:47:58 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from junker@jazz.snu.ac.kr) Received: (from junker@localhost) by jazz.snu.ac.kr (8.9.0/8.9.0) id TAA25033; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 19:39:22 +0900 (KST) To: Peter van Heusden Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: 2.2.7 teTeX cannot make fonts.

(see http://developer.intel.com/design/motherbd/se/se_ds.htm) I guess it should work just as well as any other mobo. However, it has a an on board audio device and it just sais PCI audio on the w3-page. Does this audio device work (well) with FreeBSD 2.2.7 (3.0) ? Is there any other problem with the mobo that I should know?

You didn't write, if your server is under heavy load or if the problem occurs after many hits. Anything unusual in the logs?

Is there any where I can get some details on this - I had a quick look through the handbook and didn't find anything... I have statically linked copies of 'team' and 'nc' that I need on the fixit disk, as well as all the gubbins to rebuild a filesystem (i.e. fsk, newfs, disklabel etc.) Can anyone offer any pointers to more information on building fixit disks?

It has 2 500meg IDE drives that I want to use to ferry the 2.2.7 and current distributions home on. The problem is that I need to install some sort of small unix to do this. I can get the 386BSD 0.1 to run on it, but not with both drives. I can get 2.0.5 almost up, but I think my floppy disk sets for that have become corrupted (anyone have a 2.0.5 bin set around still?). The later distributions such as 2.1.7.1 and later won't install using a normal install. Question: How would I manually install 2.2.7 or 3.0-current on a 4 meg ram box, using the fixit disk? If you know specifically how to do this, please reply. I don't have the option of installing on the disks from another machine and then transferring the disks to the decstation. Intuition tells me to 1) partition the disks 2) disklabel the disks 3) newfs the disks for /, swap, /var, /usr, /home 4) write the boot sector 5) copy a kernel 6) copy a miniroot FS sufficient to boot the machine 7) tar in a binset and extract 8) tar in manpages and extract My problem is that I have most of the logic down, but not the exact incantations. Is there a script around somewhere that I can use as an example for manually installing it?

It's difficult to establish what you are looking for as floppy drives are so cheap, and CDs are the same price for a set, even if you do your own mastering.

I'm running Apache 1.3.1 with mod_perl 1.15, the latest releases. I'm familiar with the FIN_WAIT_2 issue, which hasn't been a problem on FreeBSD in my experience. (I'm running FreeBSD 2.2.6.)

As someone else commented, further clues about your actual intent would be useful; it may well be that your needs would be handled adequately by merely updating /etc/aliases & running "newaliases". With respect to the question as asked, I would place such a rewriting rule -- assuming I actually thought it were needed -- in ruleset 0, probably via the "LOCAL_RULESET_0" capability (using the m4 configuration technique). david -- David Wolfskill UNIX System Administrator dhw@whistle.com voice: (650) 577-7158 pager: (650) 371-4621 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 3 09:22:46 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA18825 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 09:22:46 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cyclone.degnet.baynet.de (www.degnet.baynet.de [194.95.214.129]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id JAA18772 for ; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 09:22:27 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from malte.lance@gmx.net) Received: from neuron.webmore.de (unverified [194.95.214.170]) by cyclone.degnet.baynet.de (EMWAC SMTPRS 0.83) with SMTP id ; Mon, 03 Aug 1998 18:23:31 +0200 Received: (from malte.lance@gmx.net) by neuron.webmore.de (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA04635; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 18:17:41 +0200 (CEST) From: Malte Lance MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Date: Mon, 3 Aug 1998 18:17:41 +0200 (CEST) To: Sascha Schumann Cc: William Woods , "freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG" Subject: Re: BASH prompt question In-Reply-To: References: X-Mailer: VM 6.43 under 20.4 "Emerald" XEmacs Lucid Message-ID: <13765.57486.496079.524320@neuron.webmore.de> Reply-To: malte.lance@gmx.net Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Sascha Schumann writes: > On Sun, 2 Aug 1998, William Woods wrote: > > > I would like to make my bash prompt show a little more info, like what dir the > > user is in.

No need to source them via a system-rc. Further bash is in the ports-collection and when installing the bash as a port or package, it will be installed in /usr/local/bin by default. So all this guy has to do is to create and edit ~/.bashrc for non-login-shells and ~/.bash_profile for login-shells. Yes Sascha, your answer is absolutely correct just a little OS-specific ;) Little excerpt from "man bash": When bash is invoked as an interactive login shell, it first reads and executes commands from the file /etc/pro- file, if that file exists. After reading that file, it looks for ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, and ~/.profile, in that order, and reads and executes commands from the first one that exists and is readable. The --noprofile option may be used when the shell is started to inhibit this behavior. When a login shell exits, bash reads and executes commands from the file ~/.bash_logout, if it exists. When an interactive shell that is not a login shell is started, bash reads and executes commands from ~/.bashrc, if that file exists. This may be inhibited by using the --norc option. The --rcfile file option will force bash Malte. > > For more info, see man bash ;) > > Greetings, > > Sascha > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 3 09:22:45 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA18822 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 09:22:45 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cyclone.degnet.baynet.de (www.degnet.baynet.de [194.95.214.129]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id JAA18784 for ; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 09:22:35 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from malte.lance@gmx.net) Received: from neuron.webmore.de (unverified [194.95.214.170]) by cyclone.degnet.baynet.de (EMWAC SMTPRS 0.83) with SMTP id ; Mon, 03 Aug 1998 18:23:32 +0200 Received: (from malte.lance@gmx.net) by neuron.webmore.de (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA04620; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 18:05:05 +0200 (CEST) From: Malte Lance MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Date: Mon, 3 Aug 1998 18:05:04 +0200 (CEST) To: Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: IP Masquerading In-Reply-To: <86256655.0051D366.00@csc.com> References: <86256655.0051D366.00@csc.com> X-Mailer: VM 6.43 under 20.4 "Emerald" XEmacs Lucid Message-ID: <13765.56647.325707.806572@neuron.webmore.de> Reply-To: malte.lance@gmx.net Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG khouphou@csc.com writes: > Thanks all for your help.

To determine the client to run, startx first looks for a file called .xinitrc in the user's home directory. If ... Now lets have a look at the .xinitrc file in my homedirectory: ... userresources=$HOME/.Xresources ... if [ -f $userresources ]; then xrdb -merge $userresources fi ... Now you clearly see that the X-resourcefile that is merged into the X-Server resources for a particular user should be named .Xresources This is valid when using "startx" for starting X. If xdm is used, your approach would have been correct. You could have solved this problem easily on your own, by just typing "man startx". Do it.

No need to source them via a system-rc. You should have read your excerpt from the man page better ;o) bashrc will only be sourced automatically if you start e.g. a xterm which uses a interactive shell but is not a login shell. > Further bash is in the ports-collection and when installing the bash > as a port or package, it will be installed in /usr/local/bin by > default. I'm used to compile everything myself ;) IMO /usr/local/bin is a somewhat strange place for a login shell, it should be in /bin which is normally on the root filesystem. > So all this guy has to do is to create and edit ~/.bashrc for > non-login-shells and ~/.bash_profile for login-shells. > Yes Sascha, your answer is absolutely correct just a little > OS-specific ;) May I add sth here: To save time, space and redundant code ;) it's usually better to put the most things (e.g. aliases, vars specific to that login) in bashrc and to source it from /etc/profile or bash_profile.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Is there an arbitrary length limit for user passwords in FreeBSD? On my FreeBSD 2.2.6 system, I created a user "test1" and assigned it the password "asdfgjkl99" (10 characters). However, I can log in using the passwords "asdfgjkl" (8 chars) or "asdfgjkl33" (first 8 chars identical). It seems that only the first 8 characters of the password are significant. Is this a bug or a feature? I couldn't find anything about it in the docs, except "man passwd(1)", which says that a password's total length must not exceed _PASSWORD_LEN, which is supposed to be 128 characters.

NO, NO, NO, this is the sort of -personal preference- customization that should NOT be placed in system-wide config files. Even if you are (currently) the only user of that machine.

You'll probably find all sorts of interesting and useful info there. And even if you don't use it right away, it should help you know where to look and what to look for later. -Pat To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 3 11:29:11 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA12090 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 11:29:11 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from www.schell.de ([195.20.238.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA12082 for ; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 11:29:01 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sas@schell.de) Received: from localhost (sas@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by www.schell.de (8.9.0/8.9.0) with SMTP id UAA30940; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 20:28:34 +0200 Date: Mon, 3 Aug 1998 20:28:33 +0200 (MET DST) From: Sascha Schumann To: patl@phoenix.volant.org cc: William Woods , "freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG" Subject: Re: BASH prompt question In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Mon, 3 Aug 1998 patl@phoenix.volant.org wrote: > > On Sun, 2 Aug 1998, William Woods wrote: > > > > > I would like to make my bash prompt show a little more info, like what > > > dir the user is in.

Here is the setup: Freebsd 2.2.6 gateway with: 1 network card configured as 192.168.0.1 1 internal modem 56K - /dev/cuaa1 (com2) Several Win95 computers with tcp/ip addresses set as follows: 192.168.0.43 192.168.0.40 192.168.0.48 ... Default gateway is set to 192.168.0.1, and dns is set to the ISP's DNS servers. This configuration works fine. I am able to ping the win95 boxes from the freebsd box, and I am able to ping the freebsd box from all win95 boxes. The goal is to allow internet access to all win95 computers via the freebsd gateway machine. When it is working, I am able to ping all internet addresses from the win95 boxes (ie. ping ftp.cdrom.com works fine), but I cannot ping the same internet address from the freebsd gateway box. I would like to establish a ppp connection to the ISP, and keep the connection alive for 10 mins after the last data is transmitted (to speed up access for users who leave their desks for a few minutes, and then come back to continue browsing or checking/sending email). It seems to me like the system dials up the ISP as soon as the connection is lost. This seems wasteful. Also, I often (once or twice daily) have to shutdown -r now and then during the reboot, turn of the power for a few seconds to reset the modem. This is also a pain in the ass, as I am not always there to reset the machine for my users. The system works fine for our application when it works, but it locks up too often. If any other info is required, let me know. This is kinda new to me, so please realize that you are answering a highly computer literate user who is totally new to freebsd. Thanks, Charles PS: below is more info that you may find helpful! charlespeters@chickenbean.com charlespeters@tecpro.com On the bsd gateway, running ifconfig -a yields the following result: de0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255 ether 00:c0:f0:30:86:f6 media: autoselect (10baseT/UTP) status: active lp0: flags=8810mtu 1500 tun0: flags=8051 mtu 1500 inet 206.139.129.158 --> 206.139.129.5 netmask 0xffffff00 sl0: flags=c010mtu 552 ppp0: flags= 8010mtu 1500 lo0: flags=8049mtu 16384 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 When I run netstat on the bsd-gateway, the first two lines displayed are as follows: tcp 0 0 192.168.0.1.telnet 192.168.0.42.1039 ESTABLISHED tcp 0 0 206.139.129.141.telnet 24.4.113.32.1025 ESTABLISHED I am telnetted into the computer from 192.168.0.48, and was also telnetted into the computer from 24.4.113.32.

The system panics when booted from the kernel installed on the hard drive. Is there some "magic" setting that corrects the crash condition? The system boots fine when the 3c503 card is removed. The system also boots fine when the system is booted with a floppy install disk and the ethernet card id installed. I looked at the irq in the config but the resources look ok. The io is set at 280h, the irq is set at 5 and the memory is set for d8000. The jumpers are set appropriately. I tried the same type card on another system at home. It panics also. The panic occurs when the 3com card is querried. (ed0 or ed1, tried both jumper settings) I also set the card at 300 and the behavior is the same (panic). There is no boot rom installed on the 3c503 card. I wonder if a boot rom must be installed in the card to give it something to read. I also borrowed an etherlinkIII from another system. It doesn't stop the system from booting. Got any ideas? regards Norm Morin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 3 12:58:25 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA29567 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 12:58:25 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from serveri.netti.fi (serveri.netti.fi [195.16.192.130]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA29561 for ; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 12:58:21 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from yurtesen@turkey.ispro.net.tr) Received: from turkey.ispro.net.tr (dyn-4-032.tku.netti.fi [195.16.223.34]) by serveri.netti.fi (8.8.8/8.8.3) with ESMTP id WAA05800; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 22:57:57 +0300 Message-ID: <35C616AF.24FB83F5@turkey.ispro.net.tr> Date: Mon, 03 Aug 1998 22:59:43 +0300 From: Evren Yurtesen X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.05 [en] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "Henry; Michael Kenneth" CC: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Processor References: <199808030250.TAA15503@hub.freebsd.org> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG hello, you have 586 class processor, well when cyrix says 6x86 it is one less... it is like they had some CPU called 5x86 and it was for 486 boards... well they are trying to mean that the CPU has power of 6x86 I guess... also you may understand from the board design, PentiumPRO cpu's look like rectangle, and pentium CPU's are like square... so if you have a square cpu it is 5x86 : ) Henry; Michael Kenneth wrote: > I am preparing to make my own kernel, but I have a question about > the processor options. > > The GENERIC config file has options for 386, 486, 586, and 686 processors. > > I am using a Cyrix 6x86MX, and therefore the 686 option seems to make > the most sense, but the LINT config file says the 586 is for Pentium > processors and the 686 is for Pentium Pro processors. > > I am unsure which option to choose, and would appreciate it if someone > could give me a clue. > > Thanks, > Michael > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 3 13:10:11 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA00929 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 13:10:11 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from kewanee.net (keppp16.inw.net [207.2.103.85]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA00924 for ; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 13:10:09 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from denny@kewanee.net) Received: (from denny@localhost) by kewanee.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA18700; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 15:09:52 -0500 (CDT) (envelope-from denny) Message-ID: <19980803150952.A18693@kewanee.net> Date: Mon, 3 Aug 1998 15:09:52 -0500 From: Denny To: Shawn Leas , Henry Michael Kenneth Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Processor Reply-To: denny@kewanee.net Mail-Followup-To: Shawn Leas , Henry Michael Kenneth , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG References: <199808030250.TAA15503@hub.freebsd.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93.1i In-Reply-To: ; from Shawn Leas on Sun, Aug 02, 1998 at 11:33:43PM -0500 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Quoting Shawn Leas (sleas@ixion.honeywell.com): > > You have a 586 "class" processor.

However, I have a couple of things on the chart that I couldn't find the answers to in the Handbook, FAQ, or mailing list archive. If someone could help me get these sorted few things sorted out, I could submit the info and we could get FreeBSD up on the chart! :-) This chart would be for 2.2.7. - IDE modes supported PIO 1-4??????, UDMA? (I know this is in -current, but I thought I remembered seeing it was NOT in 2.2.7) - Maximum file/partition size 2 GB/512 GB (in current - ref Dyson email in mail list archive what's the stable # ?) - Available RAID levels 0,1, others? - Maximum filesystem swap area ? - Windows Internet Name Server ?(can we support this network service?) That's it! Thanks in advance for any help!

For kicks, I run Apache 1.3.0 web server on this same unit. It appears that while I've been testing my server, some bozo came in and used sendmail to send some rough and threatening e-mail to someone. My ISP even cancelled my account until I proved I had nothing to do with it. If someone came in, unathorized that is, and used my mail server to send mail, which log file would show me this intrusion? How can I prevent this from happening again? There is a moral to this story! When you think abusing someone else's system is fun and makes you feel superior... think about how I lost a couple of days billings (that's how I pay my rent, ya know!) because of this snafu, and ask yourself how would you feel coming up a couple of hundred short for the month just because some bozo sent some trawdry e-mail through your system.

First, I've tried to rebuild this kernel a number of times and the same error @ time. I've checked & re-checked the syntax, doing altF2, F3, etc., logging on as root, opening the good kernel there, going back & forth and comparing and comparing to make doubly sure. I just don't know what I'm doing wrong. The version I'm running is 2.2.6. Now the question: Could you mail me an attachment or something with the wording, layout of your working kernel that you'd be comfortable with? At least that way, I'd see another one created from scratch. I don't really know what else to do. Thank you so much.

wd0 (3.4G)      P1 - = Dos,

        =       P2 - FreeBSD,

wd1 (2.5G)  P1 - Win95,
        =       (As you can tell, the = boot files will end up on wd0/P1

        =       P2 - Whatever,

wd2 (2.5G)      P1 - = NT,

Of course, I set up DOS 6.22 first, then win95, then = NT, and finally, we must save the best for last, FreeBSD. Now we can = boot to whatever the #*$@ we want!

This removes the need to mess around with your BSD = boot config files. On two disks it might look something like this for = me.

wd0 (3.4G)      P1 - = DOS

wd1 (2.5G)  P1 - Win95/Or NT

The following accomplishes what you have there, and adds your correction for the \$: export PS1='\u@\h: \w \$' This syntax is available in bash 2 and above, but you should be using bash 2 anyway. :) If you're using xterm I use the following prompt to add information to my title bar, put user@ME (which is my machine, since I log into a lot of different ones) and the current working directory on one line, and the actual prompt below that since I like the full path in the prompt but it can get too long. if [ $TERM = xterm ]; then export PS1='\[\e]1;My Desk\a\e]2;$PWD\a\][\u@ME \w]\n \#\$ ' else export PS1='[\u@ME \w]\n \#\$ ' fi You can parse the line that works for xterm's as follows: \[ - start a sequence of non-printing characters \e]1;My Desk\a \e - an ASCII escape character (033) ]1; - xterm'ism for the name of the icon (works for wm's like afterstep) My Desk - literal text string \a - an ASCII bell character (07) This ends the first xterm sequence \e]2;$PWD\a In the second xterm sequence I like to use $PWD rather than \w because otherwise it puts '~' in the title when you use just 'cd' to return to your home. \] - ends the non-printing character part of the prompt.

Here is the setup: Freebsd 2.2.6 gateway with: 1 network card configured as 192.168.0.1 1 internal modem 56K - /dev/cuaa1 (com2) Several Win95 computers with tcp/ip addresses set as follows: 192.168.0.43 192.168.0.40 192.168.0.48 ... Default gateway is set to 192.168.0.1, and dns is set to the ISP's DNS servers. This configuration works fine. I am able to ping the win95 boxes from the freebsd box, and I am able to ping the freebsd box from all win95 boxes. The goal is to allow internet access to all win95 computers via the freebsd gateway machine. When it is working, I am able to ping all internet addresses from the win95 boxes (ie. ping ftp.cdrom.com works fine), but I cannot ping the same internet address from the freebsd gateway box. I would like to establish a ppp connection to the ISP, and keep the connection alive for 10 mins after the last data is transmitted (to speed up access for users who leave their desks for a few minutes, and then come back to continue browsing or checking/sending email). It seems to me like the system dials up the ISP as soon as the connection is lost. This seems wasteful. Also, I often (once or twice daily) have to shutdown -r now and then during the reboot, turn of the power for a few seconds to reset the modem. This is also a pain in the ass, as I am not always there to reset the machine for my users. The system works fine for our application when it works, but it locks up too often. If any other info is required, let me know. This is kinda new to me, so please realize that you are answering a highly computer literate user who is totally new to freebsd.

Because it's not default nor done automatically. I don't like to quote documents everybody has. But if people are too lazy to look at it, I have to do it... ------------------------------------ INVOCATION A login shell is one whose first character of argument zero is a -, or one started with the --login option. An interactive shell is one whose standard input and out­ put are both connected to terminals (as determined by isatty(3)), or one started with the -i option. PS1 is set and $- includes i if bash is interactive, allowing a shell script or a startup file to test this state. ... When bash is invoked as an interactive login shell, it first reads and executes commands from the file /etc/pro­ file, if that file exists. After reading that file, it looks for ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, and ~/.profile, in that order, and reads and executes commands from the first one that exists and is readable. The --noprofile option may be used when the shell is started to inhibit this behavior. ... When an interactive shell that is not a login shell is started, bash reads and executes commands from ~/.bashrc, if that file exists. This may be inhibited by using the --norc option. The --rcfile file option will force bash to read and execute commands from file instead of ~/.bashrc. ... ------------------------ To end this ``discussion'': ~/.bashrc _will be_ sourced automatically by bash, if you... o do a `su [username]' o start a xterm It will _not_be automatically sourced, if you... o do a `su - [username]' o login from console o use sth else to login remotely > > PS1='\u@\h:`pwd -P` $ ' > > export PS1 > > Again, working too hard. :) Why call a shell function every time you > hit return?

That makes you even think a little bit more before doing sth like "/tmp # rm -R wfiles /" instead of "/tmp # cp -R wfiles /" like I did some days ago :-(( ;) Greetings, Sascha To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 3 19:18:17 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA15402 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 19:18:17 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail-gw3.pacbell.net (mail-gw3.pacbell.net [206.13.28.55]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA15332 for ; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 19:18:02 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from gekk0@pacbell.net) From: gekk0@pacbell.net Received: from rjiredff (ppp-207-214-212-118.sntc01.pacbell.net [207.214.212.118]) by mail-gw3.pacbell.net (8.8.8/8.7.1+antispam) with SMTP id TAA09837 for ; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 19:17:32 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <3.0.5.32.19980803191931.0079b8d0@pacbell.net> X-Sender: gekk0@pacbell.net X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.5 (32) Date: Mon, 03 Aug 1998 19:19:31 -0700 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: 2.2.7 upgrade & ports Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I did the cvsup/make world from 2.2.6 -> 2.2.7 all went well, but when I went into to install a port it wouldn't 'make', I got the error: 'Don't know how to make install' I noticed there weren't any Makefiles in ANY of the ports directory. what did I do wrong?

How can I prevent this from happening again? /var/log/maillog and the headers of the emails. You can prevent this and other attacks by setting up a simple firewall on your system. There are some examples provided in /etc/rc.firewall, so the easiest thing to get a quick and dirty protection: o recompile the kernel with options IPFIREWALL and IPDIVERT o enable the firewall and set the type to simple or client in /etc/rc.conf o edit /etc/rc.firewall and look/create the setup which suits your needs I didn't use it myself up to now, so the above is probably incomplete. ;) Greetz, Sascha To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 3 20:05:15 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA19562 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 20:05:15 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from tltodd.com (badger.tltodd.com [208.133.92.209]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA19556 for ; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 20:05:11 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from tlt@tltodd.com) Received: (from tlt@localhost) by tltodd.com (8.8.3/8.8.3) id WAA15690 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 22:12:39 -0500 (CDT) Date: Mon, 3 Aug 1998 22:12:39 -0500 (CDT) From: Terry Todd Message-Id: <199808040312.WAA15690@tltodd.com> To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: web shell Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG A few days ago I asked: >Has anyone built a web based shell interface? > >My local library has recently turned off telnet on their >systems but still allow patrons to use a web browser.

Nice working example. It worked from the library but not from my system at home. ACME: >Check out http://www.acme.com/cmd > >Type "uname -a" while you're in there... A working example that needs more work. I was able to login as 'guest' but only by tricking it. I could type on the line to enter text on but it would not accept the 'enter' key to send the data. I had to go to the URL line and press 'enter' there for it to think about it. Has anyone put /bin/sh into a cgi script? Would this work? With some tweaks? Thanks for the replies.

Another option for the su case that I've been using very successfully is the --rcfile option. I have an alias like this: alias rootme='/usr/bin/su -m root --rcfile $HOME/.bash_profile' which allows me both to have the option of carrying my native environment around or just using su if I want the root environment. There are other ways of accomplishing this using combinations of .bash_profile and .bashrc files, but I've found that this system works well for me. > > > PS1='\u@\h:`pwd -P` $ ' > > > export PS1 > > > > Again, working too hard. :) Why call a shell function every time you > > hit return?

I don't have so many things to add and subtract that it's a huge burden, however I like to keep things tidy. > > export PS1='\u@\h: \w \$' > > > > This syntax is available in bash 2 and above, but you should be using > > bash 2 anyway. :) > > Because I've used older versions which didn't have it.

A friend of mine has a lot of this kind of stuff lying around... If I get it working I'll post it.

This is actually the kernel config file that I've used since I started using FreeBSD a year or so ago, so there is some newbe junk commented out that I should just get rid of. My lazyness is showing, but it indicates that I made my fair share of mistakes to get a config that would build. ;-) I have never had a problem doing a kernel build from this config file in its present state. A note of caution. My hard drives are all IDE, but there is a SCSI controller configed in the file to support my CDROM and tape drives. You may want to have a look at LINT to determine the correct controllers for your system. If you need help, let me know and I will see what I can provide in the way of assistance. Hope that this helps get you started.

I entered the directory that I wanted to mount (/home) with the associated nis map (amd.home). I verified that the amd daemon was running with "ps" which yielded: amd -p -a /net -c 1800 -k i386 -d [my-domain] -l syslog /home amd.home I also verified that I can access the map by issuing the command, ypcat -k amd.home I then logged in as root and issued a mount command which yielded amd:[PID] on /home I then tried to change directory to /home/[user] which gave me a permission denied. An ls -alF also yields permission denied. I then tried to cd from the mount point down to the key which still yielded permission denied cd /net cd [MachineName] cd home cd svr svr: Permission denied. I then used amq -sm which indicated that everything had mounted successfully. As an aside, if I mount manually every works fine. Does any one have any suggestions ?

You would get the same result with a `su -' while a simple `su' leaves your native env.

It can be very tricky. I generally put everything global in /etc/profile, additional paths in .bash_profile and alias'es in .bashrc. It works and if not, I'll change it ;) Regardz, Sascha To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 3 21:19:06 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id VAA26086 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 21:19:06 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from alpha.sea-to-sky.net (alpha.sea-to-sky.net [204.244.200.240]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id VAA26079 for ; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 21:19:05 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sreid@alpha.sea-to-sky.net) Received: (from sreid@localhost) by alpha.sea-to-sky.net (8.8.7/8.8.7) id VAA05303; Mon, 3 Aug 1998 21:23:28 -0700 Date: Mon, 3 Aug 1998 21:23:27 -0700 (PDT) From: Steve Reid To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: calcru: negative time Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I recently upgraded from 2.2.5-RELEASE to 2.2.7-RELEASE, for the PnP support (I recently installed a PnP sound card).

Here is the setup: Freebsd 2.2.6 gateway with: 1 network card configured as 192.168.0.1 1 internal modem 56K - /dev/cuaa1 (com2) Several Win95 computers with tcp/ip addresses set as follows: 192.168.0.43 192.168.0.40 192.168.0.48 ... Default gateway is set to 192.168.0.1, and dns is set to the ISP's DNS servers. This configuration works fine. I am able to ping the win95 boxes from the freebsd box, and I am able to ping the freebsd box from all win95 boxes. The goal is to allow internet access to all win95 computers via the freebsd gateway machine. When it is working, I am able to ping all internet addresses from the win95 boxes (ie. ping ftp.cdrom.com works fine), but I cannot ping the same internet address from the freebsd gateway box. I would like to establish a ppp connection to the ISP, and keep the connection alive for 10 mins after the last data is transmitted (to speed up access for users who leave their desks for a few minutes, and then come back to continue browsing or checking/sending email). It seems to me like the system dials up the ISP as soon as the connection is lost. This seems wasteful. Also, I often (once or twice daily) have to shutdown -r now and then during the reboot, turn of the power for a few seconds to reset the modem. This is also a pain in the ass, as I am not always there to reset the machine for my users. The system works fine for our application when it works, but it locks up too often. If any other info is required, let me know. This is kinda new to me, so please realize that you are answering a highly computer literate user who is totally new to freebsd.

Take a look at the 'release' target in /usr/src/release/Makefile. If you have a CD-ROM drive on the system, it makes more sense to mount the live file system CD-ROM and run everything from there.

I've seen this happen during boot (after device probe, before syslogd starts), but usually it takes a few hours before I start to see it. Once it starts it usually gets progressively worse until I reboot. Since my post about the message, I have noticed a problem.. When the message is appearing, some processes don't get all of the CPU available to them.

I used to run rc5des but stopped it, thinking that was the cause of the sluggishness (it might have been partly responsible anyways. but that's another topic). Any of the developers know why this would happen? Is this only happening in 486-class CPUs?

I don't know quite when this started release-wise, but I know I used to overclock all the time back in the 2.1.* days. I think I quit because it was giving me problems with X.

All the this is quite easy if you want to use the files in /usr/src/release/floppies. it is possible that they need to be updated for 2.2 but I checked them for -current today (and fixed them) cd /usr/src make buildworld cd /usr/release make obj cd sysinstall make obj cd ../floppies make obj cd fixit make it should make a floppy image for you you need to look at the file floppies/fixit/crunch/crunch.conf to add utilities see man crunch for more info you might need to get the -current version of the crunch.conf files if it doesn't work under 2.2 > > What do you want to know?

The routing side is fine, so we then looked at ipfw and ipltd. ipfw allows us to divert packets to a port, where ipltd does it's stuff. So we have the following ipfw entries: bmcgw# ipfw list 00010 divert 10 ip from 194.242.128.48 to any via any 00100 count ip from any to 194.242.154.24/29 00200 count ip from 194.242.154.24/29 to any 65535 allow ip from any to any This is a test set-up, which will divert packets from 194.242.128.48 to port 10, allowing us to ping from that address and monitor the limiting.... On the command line we entered: ipltd -c 1000 -p 1 -P 2 10 and sat back and watched as no pings got through at all. ipfw -a list shows the packets getting diverted, which are promptly disposed of. So anyone know what we're doing wrong? Any help would be appreciated with this matter. Anyone else using ipltd out there who has got it working? Thanks in advance, Matt Pavilion Internet plc.

I ask because we are trying to build a kernel for a package called the "Stoney Brook Video Server". This package includes modified kernel source files to be used with FreeBSD 2.0.5 or 2.1. As I would expect the build fails (at the "make depend" stage) under freeBSD 2.2.x, I think this is down to header file incompatibilities. Alternatively, is there any known way of compiling kernel additions/modifications intended for eairler versions of FreeBSD under FreeBSD 2.2.x? Also is it possible that compilation errors at the "make depend" stage could result from in incorrect environment setting when attempting to rebuild the kernel, rather than kernel version mismatches. I am new to FreeBSD and woul be grateful for any help or ideas, thanks, Paul Cartwright To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 4 05:09:39 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id FAA13437 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 4 Aug 1998 05:09:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from harfang.CC.UMontreal.CA (harfang.CC.UMontreal.CA [132.204.2.102]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id FAA13431 for ; Tue, 4 Aug 1998 05:09:37 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from beaupran@JSP.UMontreal.CA) Received: from epsom.jsp.umontreal.ca (epsom.JSP.UMontreal.CA [132.204.45.25]) by harfang.CC.UMontreal.CA (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id IAA23916; Tue, 4 Aug 1998 08:09:24 -0400 (EDT) Received: from outpost.nada.org (derby.jsp.umontreal.ca [132.204.45.26]) by epsom.jsp.umontreal.ca via SMTP (951211.SGI.8.6.12.PATCH1502/JSP1789) id IAA24611; Tue, 4 Aug 1998 08:09:22 -0400 Date: Tue, 4 Aug 1998 08:11:47 -0400 (EDT) From: Spidey X-Sender: beaupran@outpost.nada.org To: Paul Cartwright cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG, cmsesmi1@livjm.ac.uk Subject: Re: Older Versions of FreeBSD In-Reply-To: <199808041201.FAA12412@hub.freebsd.org> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is becoming a FAQ...

I'm going to move my mail server from POP to IMAP, so my (few) mail users can manage their email accounts from several locations in a reasonable fashion. We use a variety of clients, including Netscape mail on FreeBSD, Solaris, and HP/UX, Eudora Lite on Win95/NT, and Mail-It and BeMail on BeOS. What do you clever FreeBSD users and administrators out there use? I'm looking through the docs on Cyrus, but it looks a bit "over the top" for my small user base. Is IMAP-uw reasonably reliable once patched into submission? It seems to be such a goldmine of bugs and security holes, I'm a little hesitant to jump in. -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"

Assuming your sound card isn't plug-and-play, get the settings for your card (IRQ, DMA, etc) from DOS, or Windows, or by setting jumpers. At boot, use the -c option to configure, and then add your sound card. Check /usr/ports/audio for some audio applications.

I wasn't too keen on people being able to change the server root in Netscape and get a listing of files in their home directory as email folders (and then trying to read them and getting the contents as a message), and I gave up trying to get it to run any other way (I was new to freebsd at the time and had a lot of learning to do very quickly so I went with what worked) - I haven't looked at 4.2 though, it may be better. Or not. After that I tried Cyrus - I had less trouble installing it and have now had it working quite happily for about a year without much fiddling. I found that Cyrus doesn't much like 8-bit data in mail headers (I used a sendmail flag, I think it was 7, to strip headers to 7-bit as it was just bouncing them otherwise). I think it looked more difficult to convert existing messages from /var/mail to Cyrus than it using imap-uw (although I think popping them with fetchmail and reposting them may have the desired effect) but this wasn't a problem here, we didn't have anything that needed keeping.

If so, how is this accomplished? Yes. Install the basic DES encryption service package, set the appropriate links (/usr/lib/libcrypt etc.). Transfer your sun password file to the FreeBSD box, start vipw and read the file. Insert ::0:0 just before the user's real world name line by line. I'd prefer a query replace of `:' with `::0:0'.

How can I prevent this from happening again? Also, sendmail (certainly as of 8.8.8; I haven't set up 8.9.x yet) can be compiled with tcp_wrappers support, which allows you to use the same sort of controls tcp_wrappers supplies for access to your SMTP server. I've done this at home, and find it useful. Among other things, I can disallow known spam sites from connecting to my SMTP server at all.... The same could hold true for other forms of abuse. I don't recall if the support in question involves logging the attemps; if it does, the log would be something such as /var/log/tcpd. (As someone else pointed out /var/log/maillog* would be where to see the logs of the mail transiting your system. That's a somewhat different issue.) david -- David Wolfskill UNIX System Administrator dhw@whistle.com voice: (650) 577-7158 pager: (650) 371-4621 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 4 08:48:25 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA26023 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 4 Aug 1998 08:48:25 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mailhost.criterion.canon.co.uk (cruella.criterion.canon.co.uk [194.223.249.254]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA26004; Tue, 4 Aug 1998 08:48:16 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from adamn@criterion.canon.co.uk) Received: from csl.com (hermes.criterion.canon.co.uk [194.223.249.13]) by mailhost.criterion.canon.co.uk (8.8.8/8.7.3) with ESMTP id QAA08292; Tue, 4 Aug 1998 16:43:10 +0100 (BST) Message-ID: <35C72C71.B13DC590@csl.com> Date: Tue, 04 Aug 1998 16:44:49 +0100 From: Adam Nealis Organization: Criterion Software, Ltd.

So we have the following ipfw entries: bmcgw# ipfw list 00010 divert 10 ip from 194.242.128.48 to any via any 00100 count ip from any to 194.242.154.24/29 00200 count ip from 194.242.154.24/29 to any 65535 allow ip from any to any This is a test set-up, which will divert packets from 194.242.128.48 to port 10, allowing us to ping from that address and monitor the limiting.... On the command line we entered: ipltd -c 1000 -p 1 -P 2 10 and sat back and watched as no pings got through at all. ipfw -a list shows the packets getting diverted, which are promptly disposed of.

Thanks. Well, that message indicates that the getpw*() routines on inferno have a different notion of the correct password for "nrahlstr" than what you entered. Did you use vipw to append the "+:::::::::" line for each client? (Note: in the special case of the NIS server also acting as a client, I make the source for the NIS maps a directory other than /etc on the server. That allows me to include that "magic cookie" line without having an entry derived from it in the NIS passwd-related maps.)

Easiest way to fix is to install sendmail 8.9.x You can also apply JMB's anti relay/spam rules to your current sendmail, see /etc/mail/sendmail.additions. 8.9.x basically built the same functionality in and uses different option to turn it on, the anti-relay stuff is enabled by default.

So far, since I've sub'ed this list, I've been getting a lot of spam, not all of it from the list itself (such as this item). I figure since this list gets hit rather hard with spam, it doesn't appear that much action is being taken. I follow up on EVERY spam I receive, and this usually results in corrective action being taken by the ISP in question.

The man pages and the conf's give little info about actually setting up the program for specific purposes. As well the mail lists are of little help in this department. I am wanting to set up a multi-link connection from my gateway here to my isp useing a motorola Bit surfer over an ISDN line. If someone could send me a sample of thier mpd.conf and the mpd.linkup so i could get a rough idea on what should go where. The comments in the conf are of no use for a ISDN user. They specifically refer to ppl trying to bind 2 analog modems together. I would like to bind my to digital isdn channels into one link on my FreeBSD gateway. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The motorola Bitsurfr does all the multi-link itself, hiding it from your view so to speak, so if that's what you're using you don't need to use mpd (you can use the regular ppp daemon). Just send whatever AT commands are required to properly configure the bitsurfr and then dial as you would with a normal modem. If you still want to use mpd I can help with any more questions. -Archie ___________________________________________________________________________ Archie Cobbs * Whistle Communications, Inc. * http://www.whistle.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 4 10:36:30 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA19214 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 4 Aug 1998 10:36:30 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from inet.chipweb.ml.org (c1003518-a.plstn1.sfba.home.com [24.1.82.47]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id KAA19170 for ; Tue, 4 Aug 1998 10:36:19 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ludwigp@bigfoot.com) Message-Id: <199808041736.KAA19170@hub.freebsd.org> Received: (qmail 28981 invoked from network); 4 Aug 1998 17:35:31 -0000 Received: from speedy.chipweb.ml.org (172.16.1.1) by inet.chipweb.ml.org with SMTP; 4 Aug 1998 17:35:31 -0000 X-Sender: ludwigp2@mail-r X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.0.1 Date: Tue, 04 Aug 1998 10:33:30 -0700 To: Spidey , Paul Cartwright From: Ludwig Pummer Subject: Re: Older Versions of FreeBSD Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG, cmsesmi1@livjm.ac.uk In-Reply-To: References: <199808041201.FAA12412@hub.freebsd.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG At 08:11 AM 8/4/98 -0400, Spidey wrote: >This is becoming a FAQ... > >Shouldn't FreeBSD keep copies of older versions around?

I am currently enrolled in a computer System Analysis class part two. I need your quick expert opinion to help me complete a class project. I am trying to recommend to the Architecture department where I work to add UNIX with low cost IBMs with your free BSD operating system. I want some of these IBMs to have NT Windows installed on some of them. My goal is to help students in the Architecture department get hands on experience with these other platforms. Our classes at the college currently are only Macintosh based. I need to know if this version of Unix is compatable with various Computer Aided Programs (CAD) and rendering software. If so, which ones? We at the college use Form•Z, MiniCAD, Vellum, LightScape and Electric Image. Can this version of UNIX run these programs? What do you think? I also do not have a lot of time to continue collecting this information so please help me by responding as quickly as you can. It will be greatly appreciated.

Well, I don't post to usenet with my email address intact, nor do I have it on my web page... and I had almost zero spam before I subscribed to this list, so if anything, one of the list's subscribers is probably an active spammer that is using the list to harvest addresses. Nonetheless, I've had about 5 or 6 spammers from here eliminated (in addition to the hundred or so others from over the last year or so from elsewhere). -- drwho @ xnet.com -- http://www.xnet.com/~drwho/ "Freedom of government is good, but freedom FROM government is better."

I've tried the various ifconfig flags (link0, link1, link2) as stated in ep(4), but no luck. I grabbed the 3com software, and running the 3c5x9cfg.exe program freezes the machine. This card was working in someone's linux box a while ago, but I think as a cruel joke they somehow convinced it that it's got a UTP port, and the config software gets upset about that. Is there a way to blow out the flash on this thing? Anyone seen this problem before? Tips? Hints?

The appropriate changes were made via vipw to the password file, and all the directories were moved. The problem that now exists is that if any of /home's subdirectories are chmoded to 750, users' home directories are not found at login. It doesn't happen if the directories are set to 751 or 755, it doesn't happen if you ssh in, it doesn't happen if you run /usr/bin/login by hand after logging in, and it doesn't happen if you use screen and ^a-c out to a shell. It happens whether or not telnetd is wrapped with tcpwrappers, it happens despite telnetd being run as root, and it happens even with a very liberal set of permissions on any file I could conceive of being used in the login process. We are running 2.2.7-Stable, and the only modifications to our login process are the tcpwrappers. I'm open to any and all ideas.

Yeah, don't do that. The socket send/recv space isn't the problem - in fact changing that will likely make things much worse or completely non- functional. If you are running out of buffers, then you need to tune the NMBCLUSTERS kernel option. -DG David Greenman Co-founder/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 4 18:29:00 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA07396 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 4 Aug 1998 18:29:00 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from allegro.lemis.com (allegro.lemis.com [192.109.197.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA07389 for ; Tue, 4 Aug 1998 18:28:54 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from grog@freebie.lemis.com) Received: from freebie.lemis.com (freebie.lemis.com [192.109.197.137]) by allegro.lemis.com (8.9.1/8.9.0) with ESMTP id KAA19231; Wed, 5 Aug 1998 10:58:30 +0930 (CST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.1/8.9.0) id KAA03729; Wed, 5 Aug 1998 10:58:28 +0930 (CST) Message-ID: <19980805105827.R25942@freebie.lemis.com> Date: Wed, 5 Aug 1998 10:58:27 +0930 From: Greg Lehey To: Paul Cartwright , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Cc: cmsesmi1@livjm.ac.uk Subject: Re: Older Versions of FreeBSD References: <199808041201.FAA12412@hub.freebsd.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.91.1i In-Reply-To: <199808041201.FAA12412@hub.freebsd.org>; from Paul Cartwright on Tue, Aug 04, 1998 at 05:01:58AM -0700 WWW-Home-Page: http://www.lemis.com/~grog Organization: LEMIS, PO Box 460, Echunga SA 5153, Australia Phone: +61-8-8388-8286 Fax: +61-8-8388-8725 Mobile: +61-41-739-7062 X-Mutt-References: <199808041201.FAA12412@hub.freebsd.org> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Tuesday, 4 August 1998 at 5:01:58 -0700, Paul Cartwright wrote: > Hi, > > Does Anybody know if it is possible to download versions 2.0.5 or 2.1.x of > FreeBSD? I have CDs of most older versions (starting just before 1.0). If anybody *really* wants these, I'll mount the CD and they can download them (over a 33.6 kb/s modem; 600 MB will take about 40 hours, so you'll want to pick carefully). > I ask because we are trying to build a kernel for a package called the > "Stoney Brook Video Server".

I've done this successfully on another system, so I believe I may be experiencing hardware problems. I though I'd ask you guys to see if perhaps these problems are not hardware related and to see what I should do. I use cvsup to keep my tree up-to-date with stable. I last cvsup'd earlier today and then tried to buildworld. Before doing this I cleaned out /usr/obj. The first time through the build ended with: bison -d /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cc/cc_tools/../../../../contrib/gcc/bi-parser.y -o bi-parser.c /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cc/cc_tools/../../../../contrib/gcc/bi-parser.y contains 9 useless nonterminals and 17 useless rules "/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cc/cc_tools/../../../../contrib/gcc/bi-parser.y", line 117: Start symbol top does not derive any sentence *** Error code 1 [...rest of errors omitted] For the hell of it, I removed /usr/obj and started again.

This mailing list is the prime vehicle for support, and is without charge or limit. You can probably get somebody to come on-site by dangling sufficient money. I cannot imagine that this would be necessary in most scenaria. No phone support. I think there are some IRC channels, but I don't live that way. This list offers a depth of technical expertise not found in most other PC support channels; in general, a properly phrased question will be answered within a few hours, and will be followed up, until you wallow in details. > Is there a fee for set-up. Can I set it up myself? Is it easy Feeless. Can set up yourself, if you have some "clues", and are willing to read. It's easier than quantum mechanics, but harder than washing a car. Do you have /any/ Unix experience? Or any OS administration experience other than M$ products? Unix does have a learning curve, and along the curve are found a few books. If command-line computing is new, this can be daunting. "You are in a maze of twistly little passages, all alike." Have you programmed in the C language? Is there a friendly Unix person at your site? Traditionally, Unix is learned by tutoring and experiment. Risk US$40 and buy the 2.2.7 CDROM set from walnut creek (www.cdrom.com). Spend a little more and get a printed copy of "The Complete FreeBSD" with the CDROM set. Judging from your other post, I recommend setting up BSD on a separate machine for your own use and study. This can be a very minimal machine, say a cast-off 486 with >8MB memory and about a 1/2 GB hard-drive. Other flavors of Unix (NetBSD, OpenBSD) can run on a variety of non-PeeCee/Intel hardware, if you have a spare Sun or somesuch. I see your email addr is in San Francisco/Oakland. This is, of course, a hotbed of Unix activity. (BSD comes from Berkeley, originally). There are user groups, all kinds of hackers, whatever you seek, bookstores... (Computer Literacy, e.g.). Try it.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I have a C program I've been working on that will be called by a PHP/FI 2.0 script (www.php.net) which runs as an Apache web module. I have discovered that PHP/FI 2.0's PassThru() function (which calls my C program) does not appear close descriptors that Apache has open (1 per LISTEN per virtual host, all the log file descriptors per virtual host, etc.). What I want to do is close all of these unnecessary descriptors in my own C program before it then execve()'s yet a third program, a program that should NOT get access to these descriptors. Here's what I'm using right now to close everything execpt STDIN, STDOUT, and STDERR (filenum()s 0, 1, and 2): for(fds = getdtablesize(), f=3; f < fds; f++) { close(f); } It seems to work just fine, but this sure seems an inelegant solution. What is the "correct" way to discover what descriptors are open and available and then close them appropriately? Am I missing something vital here? Sorry if you see this message twice. I posted it yesterday and it seems it got eaten by a roving quantum black hole. Hopefully this posting will have enough momentum to skirt around the edge and escape without being caught.

If you know of one, feel free to point me in the right direction. I connect to my ISP via PPP over an ordinary modem. With the exception of mail from mailing lists, my mail comes to my home machine (rider) at dunham.org. Since my ISP as a matter of policy will not call rider, my mail sticks in their sendmail queue until the next time I establish contact, and then only comes across if I have the link up when their sendmail queue happens to run (every half hour). This means that those who send me mail often get back an error message that tells them sendmail has been unable to deliver for 4 hours. The mail still gets through when next I make contact, but these error message make many people think their mail isn't getting through, and eliminates my ability to use my own address for mailing lists (which usually choke on the error messages). I know very little about programming, but can manage extremely simple scripts. What I'd like to do is write something that would do: telnet myisp.net 25 wait for my ISP to respond, then tell it: etrn rider.dunham.org etrn dunham.org quit This could be run once every three hours, eliminating the dreaded sendmail complaint. What I don't know how to do is the "wait for my ISP to respond" part. This would seem to be rather like the chat script PPP uses to log me in, but I don't understand how that works. Any useful suggestions will be appreciated. -- Jerry Dunham FreeBSD Atarian ordinaire jerry@dunham.org (512)335-0674 (H) jdunham@awesome-f0.us.dell.com (512)728-4026 (O) E Pluribus Unix To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 4 21:00:24 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id VAA01998 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 4 Aug 1998 21:00:24 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from revolution.3-cities.com (revolution.3-cities.com [204.203.224.155]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id VAA01909 for ; Tue, 4 Aug 1998 21:00:12 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from msmith@revolution.3-cities.com) Received: (from msmith@localhost) by revolution.3-cities.com (8.8.5/8.7.3) id UAA07800; Tue, 4 Aug 1998 20:59:51 -0700 (PDT) From: Mark D Smith Message-Id: <199808050359.UAA07800@revolution.3-cities.com> Subject: Re: 3c509B in TP limbo To: spork@super-g.com (spork) Date: Tue, 4 Aug 1998 20:59:51 -0700 (PDT) Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-Reply-To: from "spork" at Aug 4, 98 03:04:35 pm X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL25] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > I grabbed the 3com software, and running the 3c5x9cfg.exe program freezes > the machine.

I like to filter on either email name or the domain where it's coming from into the appropriate mailbox (for instance all freebsd stuff goes to freebsd-root@i- zone.demon.co.uk). This is simple enough, in etc/aliases (I am using sendmail) filters everything addressed to freebsd-root@ into the mailbox belonging to the user john. I am looking for a mail client that will allow me (once logged in as john), to go to (for instance, the freebsd-questions folder), compose a question (or an answer!) that has the From: field set to freebsd-root@i- zone.demon.co.uk (because it is under this name that I subscribe). Currently, in pine, I have a freebsd-root folder, but because I am logged in as john, the email comes out as from: freebsd-root which is suboptimal. Many mailing lists will not allow postings from other than the subscribed mailbox. Unfortunately, freebsd-root@ cannot be a login name as it has more than 8 chars. I hope that there is a way round this other than unsubscribing then subscribing again under a different name. Ideally the folder will be expireable like a newsgroup, and even more ideally it will have threading. I would be grateful for any non-abusive :-) suggestions that you may have.

This is normal operation. The user must have 'x' (search) access to the whole tree from / down to cwd. Why are you denying read/search access to the parent directory? To hide other users' names and/or home directory name? This can't be done ... all users can read /etc/passwd or equivalent. To keep users from browsing other users' dirs? To do that, control the permissions on the other users' homedirs (700). > It doesn't happen if the directories are set to 751 or 755, it doesn't > happen if you ssh in, it doesn't happen if you run /usr/bin/login by hand > after logging in, and it doesn't happen if you use screen and ^a-c out to > a shell. Sounds like bugs in these programs, IMHO. Note, if the user being tested is a member of group wheel, the login will succeed since the user will be able to stat all the dirs by virtue of the group field. > It happens whether or not telnetd is wrapped with tcpwrappers, it happens > despite telnetd being run as root, and it happens even with a very liberal > set of permissions on any file I could conceive of being used in the login > process.

Get the "fetchmail" port, and stick this in /etc/crontab: 0 */3 * * * nobody fetchmail -p ETRN -S rider.dunham.org,dunham.org myisp.net Assuming you have PPP set up to auto-dial and to idle-timeout, your system should dial out every 3 hours, pull any spooled mail, then disconnect. You might want to have another crontab entry that fires 3 minutes before your fetchmail one, that does a "pppctl /var/run/ppp.ctl open". That way PPP has 3 minutes to make the connection to your ISP before fetchmail tries opening the connection. Or you could ask your ISP if they have a dedicated "mail exchanger" SMTP host, with timeout settings cranked up specifically for intermittently-connected hosts like dialups. -Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 4 22:00:51 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA09665 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 4 Aug 1998 22:00:51 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.exo.net.au (sky-valley.exo.net.au [203.14.230.103]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id WAA09646 for ; Tue, 4 Aug 1998 22:00:41 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from bullseye.apana.org.au!andymac@mail.exo.net.au) Received: by mail.exo.net.au id m0z3vgT-0004voC (Debian Smail-3.2 1996-Jul-4 #2); Wed, 5 Aug 1998 15:00:21 +1000 (EST) Received: from bullseye.apana.org.au (central.apana.org.au [203.9.107.245]) by bullseye.apana.org.au (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id IAA20908; Wed, 5 Aug 1998 08:33:32 +1000 (EST) (envelope-from andymac@bullseye.apana.org.au) Date: Wed, 5 Aug 1998 08:27:15 +1100 (EDT) From: Andrew MacIntyre To: Alex Helbig cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: ACER 10/100 Ethernet Card in 2.2.7-RELEASE In-Reply-To: <3.0.5.32.19980803153919.009ee150@ada.somerville.qld.edu.au> Message-ID: X-X-Sender: andymac@bullseye.apana.org.au MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Mon, 3 Aug 1998, Alex Helbig wrote: > I am having some hassles with the above mentioned card.

There is no easy way to do that. Try this easier method. Make a '/usr/var' directory then link '/var' to '/usr/var'. You get all the space in '/usr' that you need.

No. v90 is due (from what I've heard) for ratification (ITUT I think) sometime in September. v90 draft proposal was issued earlier. X2 and k56 flex are proprietary - i.e. they are not 'standards'. v90 presently is not ratified, and therefore not a standard. It is a draft proposal only. So what are these v90 modems? Perhaps they followed the draft.

Might I suggest looking into the "Mutt" Email client? It's in the ports collection and has support for mailing lists and multiple folders. I use mutt and procmail to handle all my lists (I don't bother setting up sendmail aliases). In general, I run fetchmail to bring mail to my sendmail which is filtered by procmail into the appropriate $HOME/Mail/..... folders for each mailing list (and of course, one for spam :) ) Mutt is also threaded and has a nice 'L'ist reply command (using it right now). -- drwho @ xnet.com -- http://www.xnet.com/~drwho/ "Freedom of government is good, but freedom FROM government is better."

ISTR that sound card and DNS support in StarOffice caused problems under some circumstances. Does that work OK for you? If so, is the local machine the name server? On the other hand, Linux emulation is important to us. If anybody can document a bug, I'm sure it'll get fixed pretty quickly. > I use kernel Linux emulation and not kernel module Linux emulation, FWIW. I don't think that makes any difference.

This is all on 2.2.7-RELEASE... I've tried copying the crunch.conf's over from my -CURRENT system (which is current as of 00:00 BST 4th August) - but with no luck... The object files are on the system, there just in different places ;-) - Looking at the previous output lines shows: " cc -O -DCRUNCHED_BINARY -c /usr/src/bin/chmod/chmod.c " So I'd guess it's not putting the Object files in the same dir as 'chmod.c', and hence can't find them (they go into /usr/obj/usr/src/bin/chmod). I haven't got a clue how to change this though... Can you help?

No, in general. Well, you don't have to really reinstall -- what you have to do is save the partitions in question, (on tape or on a slice or device you're not messing with), then run disklabel -e, repartition the slice in question, then newfs and restore the partitions whose offsets or sizes have changed. If you don't understand that, don't try it. Instead of that, try this: Let's suppose it is writing to a file /var/stuff/foo.cache. You would like it to be writing to /usr/stuff/foo.cache. Step one: kill the software. If this is a busy machine, maybe go to single user mode. Step two: copy everything so that /usr/stuff/* is just like /var/stuff/* one way: cd /var tar cpf /tmp/stuff.tar stuff cd /usr tar xvpf /tmp/stuff.tar rm /tmp/stuff.tar [the tar can be simplified: (cd /var; tar cpf - stuff)|(cd /usr; tar xvpf - )] Some men use cp -R, but I don't like innovation. Step three: Whack the old directory rm -r /var/stuff (or, for the timid, mv /var/stuff /var/oldstuff) Step four: Make symbolic link: cd /var ln -s /usr/stuff stuff Step Five: restart the software. Note: this doesn't need to be on /usr, necessarily. Another method is to hack the source (possibly only a change in a Makefile), rebuild and reinstall the software in question.

Firstly, it works perfectly. You have two possibilities to install FreeBSD with the others. (1) With Win95, you only can use FreeBSD's BootManager. In that case, you choose [F1] DOS to boot from C:\ and Win95. (2) With WinNT, you can use either NT bootloader or FreeBSD BootManager. I installed FreeBSD after NT, and its BootManager didn't erase NT's bootloader. What a surprise... So, when you boot, you have BootManager [F1] or [F2] FreeBSD, and Once you selected [F1] DOS, NT's bootloader will appear. Or, You can get rid of FreeBSD's BootManager, and use only NT's bootloader to boot your FreeBSD as well.

It installs great and everything but my Backup Tape drive doesn't work. I have posted the question on comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc a couple of times but couldn't get an answer, you guys are my last hope. OK the tape drive is actually CTT8000 Internal IDE Minicartridge drive by "Seagate" not CONNER with 4GB native and 8GB compressed capability. It is connected to the primary IDE controller along with the CD-ROM (both on the IDE port via 1 cable). I have SCSI hard drives. When the machine boots up it actually sees the drive and echos: wdc0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7 irq 14on isa wdc0: unit 0(atapi): , removeable, intr,dma,iordis wdc0: unit 1(atapi):, removeble, accel, iordis wdc0: ATAPI streaming tapes not supported yet OK so you see it recognizes the drive as a CONNER drive not Seagate surprisingly with the right model # and at the end it says that it is not supported yet, what does that mean ? please don't tell me that I cannot use it with FreeBSD. I tried doing a dump to /dev/wdc0 but it said no such device then I tried to do a MAKEDEV wdc0 and it said something about bad super block. I am lost and frustrated please help ! I'm not a unix expert so please be clear on the instructions and don't tell me to write my own driver either cause I know I cannot do it :) The second problem is with the new Quantum Atlas II 4.5 GB SCSI-3 drive that I'm using with an 80 to 68 pins adapter. I have the FreeBSD OS on a 2.1 GB drive and I mount the 4.5GB on /u02 after creating a file system (single slice) for the full capacity of the drive. Then when I do a cd /u02 it says u02 is not a directory, then I went to /stand/sysinstall and finally got it to mount it but when I tried to copy /var to /u02 it said something like parity write error and bunch of other errors rolled off of the screen among which there were several retries. Finally, when I looked in the /u02 it seemed like some of the stuff was actually copied. Any ideas what's going on ? it works fine under DOS. I doubt I have create small slices of 2GB like DOS or do I ?

Hi,
I recently = purchased the 4-CD version of FreeBSD 2.2.6 from Walnut Creek CD-ROM. = It installs great and everything but my Backup Tape drive doesn't work. = I have posted the question on comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc a couple of = times but couldn't get an answer, you guys are my last = hope.

OK the tape drive = is actually CTT8000 Internal IDE Minicartridge drive by = "Seagate" not CONNER with 4GB native and 8GB compressed = capability. It is connected to the primary IDE controller along with = the CD-ROM (both on the IDE port via 1 cable). I have SCSI hard drives. = When the machine boots up it actually sees the drive and = echos:

wdc0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7 = irq 14on isa=20
wdc0: unit = 0(atapi): <FX820s/g01>, removeable, intr,dma,iordis
wdc0: unit = 1(atapi):<CONNER CTT8000-A/2.0.7>, removeble, accel, = iordis
wdc0: ATAPI = streaming tapes not supported yet =
OK so you see it recognizes the = drive as a CONNER drive not Seagate surprisingly with the right model # = and at the end it says that it is not supported yet, what does that = mean ? please don't tell me that I cannot use it with FreeBSD. =

I tried doing a dump to /dev/wdc0 but = it said no such device then I tried to do a MAKEDEV wdc0 and it said = something about bad super block.

There is a group for the entire subdirectory, and every user who is in it has that as their primary GID. The exact error on login is, "No home directory, loggin in with '/'." Given the above permissions, (the user has read/execute access all the way down to their home, world at home, group at lepers, and ownership at djv ) should this still be happening? Does login not check for that group ID at initial login? If that is the case, why does running /usr/bin/login work when run by hand after the initial botched login?

According to the FreeBSD handbook this controller should be supported - but it detects that there is a device on the PCI but - but does not assign a driver to it. The actual message is: pci0:14:0: Adaptec, device=0x7895, class=storage (scsi) int a irq 11 [no driver assigned] pci0:14:1: Adaptec, device=0x7895, class=storage (scsi) int b irq 14 [no driver assigned] Furthermore, it gives the same message about the Ethernet Card (device=9055) which is a 3COM 905B, which according the the FreeBSD handbook also should be supported. Some posts on this list mention a SCSI CAM drivers? Any suggestions on how to get this controller running would be greatly appreciated. thanks Mikkel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 5 10:26:38 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA21506 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 5 Aug 1998 10:26:38 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cyclone.degnet.baynet.de (www.degnet.baynet.de [194.95.214.129]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id KAA21498 for ; Wed, 5 Aug 1998 10:26:33 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from malte.lance@gmx.net) Received: from neuron.webmore.de (unverified [194.95.214.174]) by cyclone.degnet.baynet.de (EMWAC SMTPRS 0.83) with SMTP id ; Wed, 05 Aug 1998 19:27:46 +0200 Received: (from malte.lance@gmx.net) by neuron.webmore.de (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA00715; Wed, 5 Aug 1998 19:24:42 +0200 (CEST) From: Malte Lance MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Date: Wed, 5 Aug 1998 19:24:42 +0200 (CEST) To: "Amir Y.

Either I'm misunderstanding the above, or it's not correct. Therefore, in order to try to help prevent misunderstanding: A "hard" link (originally, the only kind of link) creates another name by which a file may be known (a pathname). The new name, as well as any other names, actually are all equivalent to one another. (Originally, they all referred to the same inode; in turn, the inode specified where the file's data blocks happened to be, as well as the timestamps, permissions, ownership -- basically, all the neat stuff that stat() will tell you if you ask it nicely. This is still essentially the case, though tere are now lots of different kinds of filesystems, and directory entries now may refer to inodes or vnodes or.... But the point is that a "hard" link creates a directory entry, which refers to the place where the filesystem tracks the attributes of the file, so all such names are equivalent.) A "soft" (or "symbolic" -- thus "symlink") link creates a (textual) pointer to a pathname... which might be a name for a file, or could be another symlink (but be careful about overdoing that one!). One of the significant issues between the two is that a "hard" link can only refer to a file on the same filesystem. A symlink, however, can refer to a file on a different filesystem... or even a file on a different machine (given a suitable environment, such as one that does arguably interesting things with "amd"). david -- David Wolfskill UNIX System Administrator dhw@whistle.com voice: (650) 577-7158 pager: (650) 371-4621 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 5 11:48:38 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA05288 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 5 Aug 1998 11:48:38 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from lucy.bedford.net (lucy.bedford.net [206.99.145.54]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA05263 for ; Wed, 5 Aug 1998 11:48:28 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from djv@lucy.bedford.net) Received: (from djv@localhost) by lucy.bedford.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA21740; Wed, 5 Aug 1998 14:32:51 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from djv) Message-Id: <199808051832.OAA21740@lucy.bedford.net> Subject: Re: Weird /home problem In-Reply-To: from James Snow at "Aug 5, 98 10:25:07 am" To: sno@teardrop.org (James Snow) Date: Wed, 5 Aug 1998 14:32:51 -0400 (EDT) Cc: djv@bedford.net, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Reply-To: djv@bedford.net From: djv@bedford.net X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL38 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG James Snow wrote > > > On Wed, 5 Aug 1998, CyberPeasant wrote: > > > > > Assumptions: /home 755 root.wheel > > /home/lepers 750 root.lepers > > /home/lepers/djv 700 djv.lepers > > > > It actually looks like that.

I have the feeling that the login database may be unsynchronized, -- reason: you've been busy there, possibly not using vipw, etc etc. That /etc/passwd, /etc/master.passwd, /etc/spwd.db and /etc/pwd.db are not in agreement is my hypothesis. Use vipw to edit master.passwd, make some inconsequential change, (delete some character and restore it), and exit vipw. I think that you may have changed home directories in /etc/passwd, not using vipw. Verify that the homedirs are correctly set when viewed with vipw. The error message you're getting is consistent with logging in to a non-existent directory. Before doing anything, try using 'finger someuser' to see what home directory finger reports. Manually compare /etc/passwd and /etc/master.passwd. Note that /etc/passwd is a _constructed_ file -- it is the sanitized result of using vipw on /etc/master.passwd pwd.db and spwd.db are also _constructed_. After all that hot air, I sure hope that's the problem. > Given the above permissions, (the user has read/execute access all the way > down to their home, world at home, group at lepers, and ownership at djv ) > should this still be happening? No, login should occur without error. Therefor I'm betting that the password database is screwy. > Does login not check for that group ID at initial login?

I can't duplicate your problem, even with these new ownerships and permissions. Hmm, you're not running NIS, are you?

wdc0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7 = irq 14on isa=20
wdc0: unit = 0(atapi): <FX820s/g01>, removeable, intr,dma,iordis
wdc0: unit = 1(atapi):<CONNER CTT8000-A/2.0.7>, removeble, accel, = iordis
wdc0: ATAPI = streaming tapes not supported yet =
OK so you see it recognizes the = drive as a CONNER drive not Seagate surprisingly with the right model # = and at the end it says that it is not supported yet, what does that = mean ? please don't tell me that I cannot use it with FreeBSD. =

I tried doing a dump to /dev/wdc0 but = it said no such device then I tried to do a MAKEDEV wdc0 and it said = something about bad super block. I am lost and frustrated please help ! = I'm not a unix expert so please be clear on the instructions and don't = tell me to write my own driver either cause I know I cannot do it :) =

The second problem is with the new = Quantum Atlas II 4.5 GB SCSI-3 drive that I'm using with an 80 to 68 = pins adapter. I have the FreeBSD OS on a 2.1 GB drive and I mount the = 4.5GB on /u02 after creating a file system (single slice) for the full = capacity of the drive. Then when I do a cd /u02 it says u02 is not a = directory, then I went to /stand/sysinstall and finally got it to mount = but when I tried to copy /var to /u02 it said something like = "parity write error" and bunch of other errors rolled off of the = screen among which there were several retries. Finally, when I looked = in the /u02 it seemed like some of the stuff was actually copied.  = Any ideas what's going on ? it works fine under DOS. I doubt I have = create small slices of 2GB like DOS or do I ?

Thanks for your time and patience, I = say patience cause I know you probably get thousands of emails from = clueless people like me asking stupid questions but believe me I tried = all of my resources before writing to you.

Thanks again

Or expect /usr to get bigger by "magic"? I think there are two ways to do the magic: mount_union (man mount_union), which will leave existing /usr visible, but put new files on the partition on the 2nd disk (eg /dev/sd1s1e or whatever). use ccd. See man ccd and man ccdconfig on that. I've never tried it. Hmm, I, too, have a spare disk... I think ccd will require you to whack the existing /usr partition, though. (equivalent of newfs'ing it.) Both union and ccd require kernel support. Then there's "vinum", which I hope Greg L. will talk about. Since I know nothing about it, I'll shut up.

This was mine and several others' first thought, but I have only used vipw in editing the password database. (No addusers, nothing.) I've also duplicated this on a local FreeBSD 3.0 machine. Here is exactly what I did. I would be really interested to know if this did not produce the same problem for other people. Created a new group entry, buggy - /etc/group: (dork being the user to be added) buggy:*:5000:dork Run vipw and put the enter the following line: dork::1005:5000:Dork:/home/buggy/dork:/usr/local/bin/tcsh Verify that /home is 755 - chmod 755 /home Make the sub of home - mkdir /home/buggy Set its perms - chown root:buggy /home/buggy ; chmod 750 /home/buggy Then the user - mkdir /home/buggy/dork ; chown dork:buggy /home/buggy/dork chmod 700 /home/buggy/dork Then when he logs in, he gets: No home directory.

But why does login behave differently when called at actual login and when called from the command line immediately after the botched login? That is, it doesn't find $home after logging in, but subsequently typing 'login' and logging in again works perfectly. My thoughts on that would be that a user-id or group-id is not set when the user is first telnetting it from the outside world, but that after his botched login it is set, and the subsequent call to login pulls it from his environment settings or something along those lines. I've not extensively examined the source for login, so I apologize if any of that was infeasible, impossible, impractical, etc. > Before doing anything, try using 'finger someuser' to see what home > directory finger reports.

It's currently running Linux without problems but I can't get the boot floppy past the copyright message. The boot loader loads and runs, it loads and uncompresses the kernel, displays the "Booting the kernel" message, prints out the copyright messages and reboots. I've also tried 2.2.6 and 2.2.7 with similar results, these both hang in the copyright message. I've checked the boot floppies by reading them back with dd and piping to cksum, the results compare OK with the images on the CD or off the net. I'm not sure where to go from here. Any ideas would be appreciated.

That is, > it doesn't find $home after logging in, but subsequently typing 'login' > and logging in again works perfectly. When called from the command line (assuming the user is logging in again as (him|her)self), the gid list is properly setup and login(1) can see into /home/buggy. It appears the user's security environment has to be used to find the per-user login capability file and then the security environment has to revert to root privileges to set the login capabilities and/or change the password if necessary. Could the existing setgid(2) & initgroups(3) calls simply be moved up ahead of the initial seteuid(2) call? Since the group list is not checked or modified before this point, it must not be a security risk at that point? Otherwise, I suppose you could do a getgroups(2), setegid(2), and initgroups(3) before the first existing seteuid(2), then after the second seteuid(2), use setegid(2) and setgroups(2) to return the group list to its original state.

If there was a consensus, it appeared to be that dump/restore was the way to go. There is suggested at the FreeBSD Homepage at the section in the HandBook dedicated to backups. The strength/weakness of dump is that it backs up file systems. If you installed FreeBSD using the defaults you would have 4 slices/partitions /,/var,/usr,swap. To do a full backup you would have to issues 3 separate dump commands (you don't have to worry about the swap). Most people I talked to have written scripts, programs or use Amanda to automate the process. Unlike other methods like tar, you do not have any constraints regarding long file names. The great thing about restore is that it has a interactive mode that makes it very easy to make selective restores. Both dump and restore on remote devices (e.g. dat). /Paul On Wed, 5 Aug 1998, Mike Francis wrote: > Hi > Whats the Best form of back up for freeBSD > The easest and best > I'm new at FreeBSD and reaaly need all the Help I can get > > Mike > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 5 16:05:44 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA10960 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 5 Aug 1998 16:05:44 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mtiwmhc02.worldnet.att.net (mtiwmhc02.worldnet.att.net [204.127.131.37]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA10914 for ; Wed, 5 Aug 1998 16:05:16 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ) Received: from Email-Only.worldnet.att.net ([208.254.216.4]) by mtiwmhc02.worldnet.att.net (InterMail v03.02.03 118 118 102) with SMTP id <19980805224547.PIUQ24120@Email-Only.worldnet.att.net> for ; Wed, 5 Aug 1998 22:45:47 +0000 Message-ID: <003901bdc0c3$44301740$04d8fed0@Email-Only.worldnet.att.net> From: "Mike" To: Subject: PNP Modem Date: Wed, 5 Aug 1998 17:49:07 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_0036_01BDC099.57D8D7C0" X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3110.5 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0036_01BDC099.57D8D7C0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Was wondering if anyone could help me out.

My goal is to use a C program that can be indexed nightly, space on the hard drive isn't too much of a concern but running in C rather than Perl/CGI is a big concern. C is the much preferred language for us. I have also looked quickly at Glimpse but it says it adds a search box to the bottom of every page and I don't want to do that since about 150 people work on different parts of the site and some use frames, some don't etc.. Are there any others that I should take a look at? I'm on somewhat of a budget.

I use both 2.2.5-release and 2.2.6-release. Its a GREAT OS. But, the damn atapi cd hangs occasionly. Is any one working on this? I can here the purists saying "IDE sucks anyhow, use SCSI gear", there is LOTS of IDE gear out there. I am not threating to defect to another OS but can "Freebsd" ignore such a large prospective base of users? I have done a bit with FreeBSD but if a newbie had lockups every second time they tried to use a cd I am sure they would tire of it quickly. From memory the frustration level is pretty high anyway :-) I thought this was behind us but my 2.2.5-release box locked up occasionly, now it does it 70% of the time I try and use a CD. I actually thought it may have been the cd player. Then I put a cd into another box running 2.2.6-release and when I tried to umount /cdrom it locked up. After I tried to change to another console it beeped at me and rebooted :-( I may be unlucky and I am the only one this has happened to, I hope so but if not I would love to see it rectified. I have more info for any interested parties so if you want more detail please ask me. Unfortunately I do not have the time OR the kernel debugging skills to attack this in any meaningfull way.

So now I have my / partition on 0:sd(0,e) instead of 0:sd(0,a), and I don't really have the option to change that now (machine is in production). So, is there a way to kick booteasy and make it boot from slice e instead of a, or is there a slick way to relabel partitions to make e suddenly become a? I found relatively little booteasy documentation... some stuff in /usr/src/sys/i386/boot/biosboot or something like that, and the nextboot man page... I played a bit with sticking stuff in /boot.config, but it seems that can't help because it has to know what slice to find /boot.config on. nextboot didn't seem to help either. If anyone has any recommendations, I'd love some help! Thanks.

What is locking up? Just the modem? What brand modem is this? It kind of sounds like it's not smart enough to drop the line when dtr goes low, this should be able to be fixed with the correct init string. Was this taken while the link was up? If so, the default route is wrong. Looking at my machine, my default points to the far end of the tunnel interface. Also, do you have "Gateway=YES" in your rc.conf? That's about all I can think of.

Fully ATAPI Compliant, Yada Yada Yada. When I Was Booting With FreeBSD It Failed To Find Either CD-Rom. At That Time The Sony Was Slave On The Secondary IDE Port, Now It Is Master, But I'm Thinking That Wouldn't Make Any Difference In Whether It Was Detected Or Not. So Anyway. I Have An IDE CD-Rom That FreeBSD Can't Seem To Find. Ok, I'm Disappointed As Heck. But Hey. I Can Live With Windows Explorer Crashes Every 2 Hours. It's Not That Big A Deal. Then, I Downloaded RedHat Linux 5.1. Made A Boot Disk And Boom. There's My CD-Rom. And I Would Much Rather Run FreeBSD Than Linux But Without CD-Rom Support I'm Afraid That Won't Happen. Oh Yes. I Have Been Told By At Least 5 or 6 People To Just Go Out And Buy A SCSI Controller And Use SCSI Disks. And God Dammit I'd Love To But I Have Trouble Affording A Can Of Coke At The Local Store So How The Hell And I Going To Scuzzy Out My System? So Please Don't Tell Me To Buy SCSI Devices. I Hate It When People Do That. Anyway. If Anyone Has Any Idea's About How I Might Get This CD-Rom Working Please Let Me Know... Or... If Anyone's Willing To Donate Some SCSI Hardware To A 15 Year Old That Would Bow Down Before Your Infinite Greatness That Would Be Good Too. (Although Not Very Likely To Happen). Oh Yes. I Have Another Small Problem. Neither FreeBSD or Linux Seem To Have Much Luck With My Modem. It's A Gateway 2000 Telepath 33.6. Don't Laugh. It Was Given To Me With Good Intentions. Picture This. Christmas. An Old Burnt Out Puter In A Dark Basement. And A Big Spotted Box. Joy Joy Joy. :) - Oh Yes, The Modem Is Basically A USR 33.6 Voice WinModem. And Everyone That Has Heard That I Have A WinModem Has Either Laughed Or Cried. I Tend To Be Doing More Of The Latter. Any Help Will Be Greatly Appreciated. I Do Tend To Ramble On Quite A Bit And Spit Out Quite A Bit Of Worthless Information And For That I'm Deeply Sorry.

In the quoted part of this message (i've quoted it) at the end YOU quoted some mail-communication where I was quoting a message of David Greenman, where HE quoted ME, correcting my answer that was quoting a question of "esl " to questions, asking nearly the same as you are asking now.

Try slaving it on your primary channel and moving your second IDE HD (if you have one) to the seconday master position. Oh yeah.

Does anyone have the same problem ? Why is it getting such signal and who is generating the signal ? Is there a way for now for me to use a wrapper utility to actually start xinit (with proper command lines retained) and that I can choose to mask out that signal for now for the interim until I figure out what is happening ? Is there such a utility ? Thanks in advance.

I'm using this modem to both connect to my ISP, and I've also set it up to allow other people to dial into my FBSd system to send and receive mail. I have 2 problems: 1. I'm using mgetty to take incoming calls. So far so good. A user dials in, but then they cannot connect using PPP directly. The remote user is using windows 95. I worked around that by opening a post-dial terminal screen in win 95 and making the user type their username and password, and giving them a login shell like this: #!/bin/sh exec /usr/sbin/ppp -direct PAPServer This works fine. However, I had understood that with mgetty one could use PAP with passwdauth set in the ppp config. I made sure that the /AutoPPP/ section in mgetty's login.conf was set correctly. Any ideas? 2. This is a more serious problem: After one user has dialled-into my FBSD machine, when they disconnect from their end, the modem on my end does not hang-up. The carrier detect stays on all the time, and if I do a ps ax, I see the ppp -direct process still running. I have to kill the ppp process and then only does the modem hang-up.

As far as my experience, the exploit didn't seem to work on my machine personally, but it did knock over my named, which also means trouble. You should update your named, preferably to bind 8.1.2 (I think). Use cvsup to update your ports directory (or just ports/net), and type make install. Comes with a converter from bind4 named.boot to bind8's named.conf.

Java applets are entirely a client side thing, so it all depends if the person pointing his browser at the web server has Java applet support. CGI's are, of course, supported.

It can compress a high resolution image file 4-5X smaller than gif or jpeg. Now what concerns us: I wrote to them asking them to make a FreeBSD port of this (since they had Irix, Linux, and Solaris). In about five hours, they had a FreeBSD port of it! I was quite impressed, to say the least (See message below). However, they don't plan to support it "very actively", probably due to the suspected low requests for it. If this is something you can use, visit them and voice your support. http://djvu.research.att.com/home_mstr.htm They do not have a compressor app for FreeBSD yet, but I would suppose that this could be done as well fairly quickly. On a side note, the Linux version does not work on FreeBSD. It will "run", but not display the files. I did not test the Linux plug-in with the Linux Netscape however.

Makemap contains a check on the output file ("/etc/virtusertable.db"). It checks if user may write to "/etc/virtusertable.db" (using getuid for user uid). In my case it decides it has not the correct uid. Changing the owner of "/etc/virtusertable.db" to httpd's uid makes all the joke work. Now I'm wondering about: 1) does "system ()" pass the su'ed uid to the executed command? 2) is it correct that makemap checks getuid and not instead geteuid?

Hi, I am now considering something entirely different. I am thinking of just wiping everything and resinstalling. Am I nuts? These are my reasons: 1) I want to upgrade to 2.2.7 2) I added a new hard drive and want /usr to share it 3) The box used to be for development and will now be strictly a server. So anyway, if I _do_ do this, this is what I will have: Master HD: 1.6 G Slave Hd: 4.3 G Here's what I want: / 100 M swap 300 M /var 32 M /usr 5.5 G In order to accomplish this I will need the /usr fs to span actual drives. Is this possible under 2.2.7?

System: PPro 200, 2.2.6R, scsi disk. (Seagate st32550W on AIC-7880). Compiled new kernel, with 4 ccd pseudo devices. Did MAKEDEV ccd0, creating devices [r]ccd0[a-h]. Strange, there's no ccd0 or rccd0 devices... why not? Sliced the disk in twain, approximately 1GB each. (Not identical). Disklabeled the slices, with one partition (e) covering each whole slice. -- just as if I were not about to ccdconfig them. (There was also an unused 'c' part. of the same size.) newfs'd those two rsd1s[12]e partitions. (Could mount and fool with them). ccdconfig ccd0 0 none /dev/sd1s1e /dev/sd1s2e No error. Now what? I eventually managed to disklabel ccd0c, one (e) partition covering both slices. This part is verrrrrry mysterious. I could not imagine proceeding without doing this, though. I attempted to newfs this ccd0e partition, and repeatably drew an immediate kernel panic (page fault in kernel mode). IIRC, it was newfs /dev/rccd0e Hints? Let's say that I restart this process with: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sd1 bs=512 count=100 reboot (to flush out "in-kernel disklabels" and other strangeness. (should that be of=/dev/rsd1 ? I want to stomp it back to "factory virgin" if possible -- no partition table, boot blox, no nada.) What should happen to result in a ccd made of two concatenated unequal slices? (Yeah, I know this is strange, but it's for the esthetic/pedagogic experience. I told a trusting soul yesterday that this stuff worked, and (unlike my usual practice) hadn't tried it myself first.)

No; it's not system()'s job to do that. I believe it's the kernel's job (via exec() & friends) to do it; I'm sure someone will provide necessary correction. :-} What's hurting you, I expect, is that you're specifying that the output should be created via (shell) redirection, and *that* is done by the calling environment (shell, httpd, whatever), well before exec() has a chance to do anything at all -- recall that when the program *starts*, it already has stdout opened.... This is the same kind of issue that (somewhat) limits the functionality of (say) "sudo": if /etc/foo is a root-owned file, mode 500 (say), you can't (as a "normal" user) issue sudo cat /etc/termcap >/etc/foo for exactly the same reason -- the ">/etc/foo" is handled by the shell before sudo gets invoked, and you don't have permission to scribble on the file. (Similarly, if /hidden is a root-owned directory, mode 700, you can't do a "sudo cd /hidden"; it actually doesn't really make any sense, since "cd" is a shell built-in, since it is used to merely maintain a figment of the shell's imagination -- that being the notion of your "current working directory.) >2) is it correct that makemap checks getuid and not instead geteuid?

Two things: One, the plug-in would not load due to a bad magic number. So I couldn't get the plug-in to work. Second, when I tried to run the stand alone app, and view a djvu file I downloaded, it would not display anything. I also got the error: Aug 5 12:59:26 gateway /kernel: Linux-emul(1254): clone() not supported I'm running 2.2.6-STABLE cvsup'ped on July 20th (a few days before 2.2.7 was released). I'm re-supping now to see if that might have anything to do with it. The AT&T folks also told me that the glibc5 version of djvu wouldn't work. So I gave up trying to make it work. ;) Did you just install it with the install file?

It's in /usr/src/release/sysinstall, if you have that source distribution installed. Otherwise you can use CVSup to fetch the distribution. See the Handbook for information.

Anyway, I copied all the missing .o files by hand at it works now. I cvsupped sources about 4 hours ago and builded world, immediately after that tried to build fixit disk. I'm using -current. `dfa.o' is up to date. `grep.o' is up to date. `getopt.o' is up to date. `kwset.o' is up to date. `obstack.o' is up to date. `search.o' is up to date. cc -O -pipe -DCRUNCHED_BINARY -c crunch.c echo "int _crunched_cat_stub(int argc, char **argv, char **envp){return main(argc,argv,envp);}" >cat_stub.c cc -O -pipe -DCRUNCHED_BINARY -c cat_stub.c cc -O -pipe -DCRUNCHED_BINARY -c /usr/src/bin/cat/cat.c ld -dc -r -o cat.lo cat_stub.o /usr/src/bin/cat/cat.o ld: /usr/src/bin/cat/cat.o: No such file or directory *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. I checked /usr/src/bin/cat/ but there aren't any .o files, same for all other. I have environment variable 'MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX=/opt2/objdir' set, maybe this is a cause ? When I look into /opt2/objdir/opt/src/bin/cat/ there are missing cat.o, cat binary and compressed manpage. Any suggestions ?

Maybe prepend is the wrong keyword, or try prepend domain-name "mydomain.com " Note extra space ^ Hint: dhclient's magic is done via a script, /etc/dhclient-script. If you don't want both in the search path then use the `supercede' keyword instead of `prepend'. > Another issue is that after initiating dhclient edo, I must manullay redo > my ed1 details via ifconfig ed1 10.0.0.5 255.255.255.0.

No. dhclient configures all Ethernet interfaces by default, but you can specify with interfaces to listen on via the command line, like dhclient ep0 to specifically listen on ep0. > BTW: I notice that if I change the 'interface "epo" {' to be 'interface > "ed0" {', things still work.

Perhaps. 7 was the old old SB default, then they moved it to 5 when they found out that certain motherboards abuse IRQ 7.

How about looking up your own hostname? Or reverse-resolving clients? You might try setting tcp_extensions to 'NO' in /etc/rc.conf and rebooting, especially if you are behind Annex or Ascend equipment.

This is fully normal. Extended partitions get mapped to extra slice numbers since one extended partition can have multiple logical disks. wd1s2 is the extended partition itself, which isn't that useful. > I've got them all working and in FSTAB now, but it was quite the puzzle. > What is the rationale behind the numbering scheme?

You can pre-create them. if you want /dev-on-the-fly wait for DEVFS and SLICE to hit mainstream.

This is only if you want to have the system auto-mount the DOS partition on bootup. You can always do it manually using mount, or edit /etc/fstab and add it to the list.

FreeBSD throws away Source-routed packets unless you enable sysctl `net.inet.ip.accept_sourceroute' and maybe 'net.inet.ip.sourceroute'.

Before I go any further, here's the map: ________ _____________ _________ (coax) | | (coax) | | (coax) | segment | -------| bridge |----------| 12 Stn. Hub |----------| monitor | | | | (10 Base T) | | wkstn | -------- ------------- --------- "Gate" |... | ... | "monitor" | | | -----------------| | |----------------- | | | | | | ____________ ____________ ____________ | | | NIS/NFS | | | | wkstn "A" | | server | | wkstn "L" | ------------ ------------ ------------ "nodeA" "server" "nodeL" Ok. With that out of the way... This all started because I was getting calls from angry users on machines in this segment, all complaining (*loudly*) about "lag that often runs over 30 seconds". Since these were *users* talking, I figured I had an actual lag of maybe 30 microseconds, but did the right thing, and checked it out anyway. (1) All logs (netstat -i) show no problems: low total utilization (averages about 5 million packets a day), with the occassional Ierr (often zero, some as high as 10). Except for where I specifically note otherwise, the collision rates run about 1.5%. All machines have an average cpu utilization of close to zero, with the peak being on "server" of about 60%. Except for "server", all machines are 486 hardware, with from 16mb to 128mb of ram. "Server" is a P200 with 128mb of ram. There is no "X" in use anywhere (not even loaded - I double checked). (2) after investigating the complaints, the "lag" is *only* reported when using telnet or ftp, although I am unable to verify it from personal experience (and I have *really* tried! - Just like going to the doctor, as soon as you look for it, it's gone!). At least on any "user" machine ("A" through "L") - see next paragraph. (3) In an attempt to get a better look at things, I took a machine from another segment, and put it on here. The plan was for this machine to be a full-time monitor (as the name above shows). Using "monitor", I was finally able to experience problems myself, although only in FTP. When logged in to "monitor", FTP speeds in retrieving files from "server" runs under 10kbps, when it runs at all. Often it will time out and be "reset by peer". It's not that bad packets are being sent and resent: there is a packet sent, and then a *long* pause, and then another, and the cycle repeats. (4) I can log in to any workstation and ftp from "monitor" at full speed (~750kbps). I can log in to "monitor" and ftp from any workstation at full speed. As far as I can tell (user complaints aside), I can login to any workstation ("A" - "L") and get files full speed from "server", and vice-versa. But as long as I am logged in to "monitor" and trying to get files from "server", I'm in deep trouble. The *only* thing I see "odd" here is a collision rate of about 10% on "monitor". (5) In trying to isolate "monitor"'s problem, I have: > Replaced cabling for both "monitor" and "server" > Replaced NIC's for both "monitor" and "server" > Reloaded the OS for both "M" and "S" > Both raised and lowered "MAXUSERS" for "server" > Placed another machine in "monitor's" position (no effect) I am completely out of ideas here. I am also completely out of patience :( I have a dozen angry users that I can't placate because I can't even verify their problem (other than on "monitor"), and I have what looks like a physically impossible interaction between "monitor" and "server"... Anyone have *any* (no matter _how_ off the wall) ideas? J.A.

How can I prevent this from happening again? Disable all non-essential services from /etc/rc.conf. You do not need to have sendmail running if you will not be receiving mail at this address. Also rake /etc/inetd.conf for noncritical services.

A couple of things to try: 1) Make sure that server's ethernet is set to the proper duplex. 2) Check netstat -s on server and look at TCP checksum and other errors. Do the same on a client machine. Also look at retransmits on both sides; you should be able to tell in which direction the problem is occuring by doing this. 3) I didn't see a mention of the type of NIC you were using; whatever that is, you might try something entirely different in the server and a client machine to see if that affects the problem. 4) Move server to a different hub port. -DG David Greenman Co-founder/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 6 15:45:22 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA25118 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 6 Aug 1998 15:45:22 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from hotmail.com (f13.hotmail.com [207.82.250.24]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id PAA25112 for ; Thu, 6 Aug 1998 15:45:17 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from billgates__@hotmail.com) Received: (qmail 26653 invoked by uid 0); 6 Aug 1998 22:45:02 -0000 Message-ID: <19980806224502.26652.qmail@hotmail.com> Received: from 194.90.232.6 by www.hotmail.com with HTTP; Thu, 06 Aug 1998 15:45:00 PDT X-Originating-IP: [194.90.232.6] From: "Jonathan Seidner" To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: problem creating slice for FreeBSD + manualy download files Content-Type: text/plain Date: Thu, 06 Aug 1998 15:45:00 PDT Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG two questions 1. when trying to create a slice for FreeBSD via the installation program, i press (c)reate, i enter the number of MB availble (63), so i enter 63M, and then i enter 165. and it just doesn't do nothin`. the slice i selected is still Unused rather from being marked as FreeBSD. 2. what do i need to download so i could use the internet in FreeBSD? and, is it possible to download the files manualy and then use the floppy installation program to install it.

That's a hard question to answer. Linux comes with an ibcs module, which might just do the trick, but you might run into problems with paths and similar if you're trying to use cinary compatibility. On the source level, it should work perfectly. You might have to do a bit of hacking in the source to change paths to the ugly style that most Linux distributions use, but that's relatively minor.

Any other information that Between the standard software included with the OS such as sendmail, bind, ftp, and software available in ports such as radius and apache, all the software you need is "included". I recommend picking up the latest versions of each from their source but that isn't strictly required, just a good idea. Hardware wise you should plan on starting out with two servers that can back each other up. I'd put all service other than http on one and apache plus a database (mysql) on the web server. P2 300 with 128M RAM is almost a "starter system" today and should have no trouble at all supporting 500 active users. Install and configure all the software on both servers but only start the appropriate demons on each one. This way, should one fail you can bring those services up on its backup. For dialup, get a loaded PM3 (48 dialup ports). It's a tough call whether or not 48 ports are enough for 500 users, depends on their usage patterns. It is a reasonable starting point though. Then you'll need a CSU/DSU and router which your upstream will probably specify and possibly supply.

I have a few 2.2.7 boxes with similar network setups and havent seen anything like this. I dont know about the particular board you are using, but I did come across a couple of boards in the past where the order of the placement of the PCI cards made a difference. If you have confirmed that the cable and ports on your switch are OK, try going down to 100 half duplex and even 10 to see if its a switch issue. Some switches (notably my Addtrans) dont do NWAY very well with the Intel NICs. Also, does netstat -ni give any input or output errors ? Another thing you could try is to connect the machine in question to another FreeBSD box via cross over cable and see if you get the same results. ---Mike On Wed, 5 Aug 1998 22:50:11 -0400 (EDT), in sentex.lists.freebsd.misc you wrote: >I've just built a 227R system.

Got another one for you. The machine i'm working with has a 3C905B-TX NIC on it. I have tested the card in DOS, and it is working fine. The 3.0 CAM release of FreeBSD can't see the network card. I checked the FAQs and stuff, and this card seems to have been around since november of 96, and supported since about december of 96. Is support for this NIC missing from the CAM version, or is this new version (notice the 'B' after the 3C905) enough to cause a problem? thanks again! -jack To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 6 20:39:23 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA14731 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 6 Aug 1998 20:39:23 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from lucy.bedford.net (lucy.bedford.net [206.99.145.54]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA14724 for ; Thu, 6 Aug 1998 20:39:18 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from djv@lucy.bedford.net) Received: (from djv@localhost) by lucy.bedford.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA10532; Thu, 6 Aug 1998 22:36:57 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from djv) Message-Id: <199808070236.WAA10532@lucy.bedford.net> Subject: Re: CCD newbie Q In-Reply-To: from Doug White at "Aug 6, 98 02:31:30 pm" To: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu (Doug White) Date: Thu, 6 Aug 1998 22:36:57 -0400 (EDT) Cc: djv@bedford.net, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Reply-To: djv@bedford.net From: djv@bedford.net X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL38 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Doug White wrote > > On Thu, 6 Aug 1998 djv@bedford.net wrote: > > > Recently, filled with ccd-zeal, I decided to give it a try, relying > > upon man ccd and man ccdconfig and a fearless attitude towards a certain > > disk. > > > > System: PPro 200, 2.2.6R, scsi disk.

We call this "networking". You can run a PPP link from one computer to another, and then you can access most stuff in that machine. If you're using the modem to connect to the Internet, you can also add the other machine as a separate host. If you choose a sufficiently high link speed (115 kb/s, for example), you'll see little performance difference when accessing the net from the first or the second machine. There are a number of things to know about this kind of connection. Check the online handbook or my "The Complete FreeBSD", second edition (http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/bsdbook2.htm).

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have a question and I hope this is the right list.. How long is the normal turn around for a response to a non-critical PR? A friend of mine who runs an ISP submitted a PR (6269) that turns on an extra option for AMD K5 and K6 CPU's. He says that it gave his AMD-based webserver a whopping 15% performance increase! He submitted it on Apr 10 of this year (almost 4 months ago) and no one has bothered to even reply to it or anything. As a result, he's somewhat disappointed and not to eager to contribute code in the future as he just thinks he'll get blown off. Of the programmers that I actually know personally, he's the best, and I'd hate for him to not make any further contributions. So, how are PR patches normally handled? Do you wait for enough people to try it out and respond saying it works? I'm just curious, and I wouldn't mind FreeBSD having a patch committed that increases performance by 15% on some machines. Please cc me in replies as I'm not subscribed to questions, thanks.

Two of the people with whom I conversed about this problem could not replicate it on 2.2.6-RELEASE, while I was getting it on 2.2.7-STABLE and 3.0-SNAP. So, I replaced our /usr/bin/login with /usr/bin/login from 2.2.6 and voila, no more login problem. I can only assume then that there was a change made to this program or to one of the library functions that it calls between 2.2.6-RELEASE and one of the more recent releases. I'd be interested in knowing if anyone else can confirm this behaviour and fix it in a similar fashion. Thank you, everyone, for your help.

Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I loaded up the 3.0 SNAP the other day and things seemed to be going well, and then I decided to try and put the DEC-21140 based board I had into full-duplex mode. Needless to say I also put the EtherSwitch it was connected to into full-duplex mode (I know the switch handles this well as I have a bunch of Solaris boxes running full-duplex on the same switch). My throughput came to a screeching halt, I could barely even FTP any files across. Also even though the machine claimed it was in full-duplex mode, it's still showing collisions even after a fresh reboot. Here is what I get from ifconfig: $ ifconfig -a de0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet 207.114.0.144 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 207.114.0.255 inet 207.114.0.241 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 207.114.0.255 inet 207.114.0.242 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 207.114.0.255 ether 00:c0:f0:30:0d:ad media: 10baseT/UTP (10baseT/UTP) status: active supported media: autoselect 100baseTX 100baseTX 10baseT/UTP 10baseT/UTP Also looking at dmesg from the reboot, it appears to be in full-duplex: de0: rev 0x22 int a irq 11 on pci0.20.0 de0: 21140A [10-100Mb/s] pass 2.2 de0: address 00:c0:f0:30:0d:ad de0: enabling 10baseT port de0: enabling Full Duplex 10baseT port Now the way I did this, was to just set the following in my rc.conf file on the machine: ifconfig_de0="inet 207.114.0.144 netmask 255.255.255.0 media 10baseT/UTP mediaopt full-duplex" So with all the above set, still a netstat -i shows: $ netstat -i Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Coll de0 1500 00.c0.f0.30.0d.ad 238593178 11 237898092 5096726 4662492 de0 1500 207.114 u2 238593178 11 237898092 5096726 4662492 So it is seeing collisions, and I can only assume it's runing in half-duplex mode, even though everything seems to point to full-duplex. So does anyone have any ideas? Is the full-duplex option broken in 3.0 current? As this machine is being used for an IRC server, it's seeing a lot of small packets, so running full-duplex would sure cut out a lot of collisions. --- Howard Leadmon - hdl@abs.net - http://www.abs.net ABSnet Internet Services - Phone: 410-361-8160 - FAX: 410-361-8162 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 6 23:16:48 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id XAA03512 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 6 Aug 1998 23:16:48 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from lucy.bedford.net (lucy.bedford.net [206.99.145.54]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id XAA03507 for ; Thu, 6 Aug 1998 23:16:45 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from djv@lucy.bedford.net) Received: (from djv@localhost) by lucy.bedford.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) id CAA01034; Fri, 7 Aug 1998 02:16:17 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from djv) Message-Id: <199808070616.CAA01034@lucy.bedford.net> Subject: Re: CCD newbie Q In-Reply-To: <19980807151016.D13559@freebie.lemis.com> from Greg Lehey at "Aug 7, 98 03:10:16 pm" To: grog@lemis.com (Greg Lehey) Date: Fri, 7 Aug 1998 02:16:17 -0400 (EDT) Cc: djv@bedford.net, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Reply-To: djv@bedford.net From: djv@bedford.net X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL38 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Greg Lehey wrote > On Friday, 7 August 1998 at 0:56:54 -0400, djv@bedford.net wrote: > > Greg Lehey wrote > >> On Thursday, 6 August 1998 at 11:28:31 -0400, djv@bedford.net wrote: > >>> Recently, filled with ccd-zeal, I decided to give it a try, relying > >>> upon man ccd and man ccdconfig and a fearless attitude towards a certain > >>> disk. > >>> > >>> System: PPro 200, 2.2.6R, scsi disk.

I haven't run FoxPro, but probably editing login.conf is not enough: have you built a custom kernel? Have a look at /sys/i386/conf/LINT: # # Under some circumstances it is convenient to increase the defaults # for the maximum number of processes per user and the maximum number # of open files files per user. E.g., (1) in a large news server, user # `news' may need more than 100 concurrent processes. (2) a user may # need lots of windows under X. In both cases, it may be inconvenient # to start all the processes from a parent whose soft rlimit on the # number of processes is large enough. The following options work by # changing the soft rlimits for init. # options CHILD_MAX=128 options OPEN_MAX=128 This may be the limitation you run into. If you haven't already made a custom kernel, it's a good point to start with /sys/i386/conf/GENERIC: copy it, and add the options mentioned above and increase them. For my desktop machine, I've used 256/256, as that's yet enough (although with 128 MByte RAM I wouldn't have problems increasing it more, it's just being somewhat conventional). For building a new kernel, consult the documentation - look at the FreeBSD handbook, section 19 (Add New Kernel Configuration Options). If you have already made that, check your user limits. May be, you have done something wrong in /etc/login.conf or simply haven't added the appropriate class for the login in /etc/passwd. I'm using bash 2.01.1 as included in the ports for 2.2.6-RELEASE, the built-in ulimit command gives the necessary information: mw@zoo:/home/wheel/mw 659 $ ulimit -a core file size (blocks) unlimited data seg size (kbytes) 262144 file size (blocks) unlimited max locked memory (kbytes) unlimited max memory size (kbytes) 32768 open files 1024 pipe size (512 bytes) 1 stack size (kbytes) 65536 cpu time (seconds) unlimited max user processes 64 virtual memory (kbytes) 327680 Dunno about other shells. As I'm simply to lazy to change the information to something making more sense, I've given myself same limits as the root account, because of that I never have to care about limits.

If they were to exist, the major numbers would be the same (they identify the driver), and the minor numbers would end in 2 (i.e. the c slice). But it's probably preferable to use ccd0c and rccd0c.

There are two small problems. One is that I've lost all my power-saving hot keys (and I especially miss the one that shuts down the noisy hard drive). Is there any utility that would restore my power-management functionality. My notebook is based on a TI 3000 design. I'd also like to be able to network this machine to my local NT server. I have a PE3 parallel port ethernet adaptor that should do the trick. I've successfully used it under an operating system too disgusting to name. However, I haven't been able to find much driver support for Xircom devices for an UNIX or Linux flavour. The Xircom web site claims that there exists a SCO driver. Is there any chance that FreeBSD could run the PE3 SCO driver, and does anyone out there have any experience with this driver. Failing that, is it possible to get a network connection using a parallel port cable? What driver would I need to install under NT to make this possible. Please respond via e-mail.

I have set up a Apache - forntpage server on FREEBSD 2.2.6 using Apache 1.2.6.

when a user logs on to his site is www.orangenet.co.uk/~usesrname, using the front page 98 programe, he is able to log on fine, the only problem occurs when the user trys to publish thier web page on to the server.

what happens is that the user is asked to enter the root servers password and frontpage administrators username for www.orangenet.co.uk.
when this is entererd the web for user ~username is then published to thier directory.
Also a copy of thier pages are also stored in the root directory.

is their a way so that when the user logs on to thier directory they only need to enter their user name and password in order to publish thier pages and not also the root servers username and password..
 

can some one please tell me what i have done wrong and who i might correct it.
 
 

thanks a lot for your help.

Using X or not should not make a difference at all, IMHO ! *All* internet-related services (inetd...) are started at boot-time and are available then. One of the reasons, people use Unix: you don't need a GUI to administrate the system. If your BIOS supports it (not many do, though...), you could also remove the gfx-card and save an IRQ :-). The people in -questions will quite possibly ask for a more detailed description of your setup and what exactly you're doing.... cheers, Rainer -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |Rainer Duffner, E-Mail: duffner@fh-konstanz.de | | & Rainer.Duffner@konstanz.netsurf.de | |Fachhochschule Konstanz, Germany | |"What's a Network ?" - Bill Gates, early 1980s | | WWW:http://www-stud.fh-konstanz.de/~duffner | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Aug 7 03:10:27 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id DAA12845 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 7 Aug 1998 03:10:27 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from link.cpt.nsc.iafrica.com (link.cpt.nsc.iafrica.com [196.31.1.126]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id DAA12772 for ; Fri, 7 Aug 1998 03:10:05 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from khetan@link.freebsd.os.org.za) X-Disclaimer: Contents of this e-mail are the writer's opinion X-Disclaimer2: and may not be quoted, re-produced or forwarded X-Disclaimer3: (in part or whole) without the author's permission.

The question I have is that when I have tried this from 2 or 3 different sites and go to use the configuration tool to setup XWindows I get the message, " XFree86 is not installed on your computer please install this to use the configuration utility." Or something along those lines. The thing I don't understand is that when I am retrieving the files across the internet it is saying that the files are being downloaded and uncompressed to my pc. I have tried the express and the novice install just to be sure that I wasn't making any mistakes and still no go. Could this be caused by corrupted files on your end and when I am downloading them they are there but just don't work. If someone could get back to me and give me some insight as to what may be happening or what steps I may be able to take to resolve this that would be great. I really would like to get this as my main OS because everyone is looking for IX based administrators and I would really like to be able to have these skills.

The ethernet address can be detectet by the FreeBSD kernel, but if i do a "ifconfig lnc1 ... up" there is a message on the second console: lnc1 initialization failed. Is there any special option to the ifconfig program or what can I do else?

It should work fine. Since it is NCR/Symbios 53c875 based it uses the 'ncr' driver which is in the GENERIC kernel by default. These types of controllers are great for the money, though the Diamond board is more expensive and gains you nothing but the name.

At regular times it started showing Internal Server Error-messages, error_log showed 'Couldn't spawn child process: blah'. The advice was to take a look at the daemon-settings in /etc/login.conf. My webserver is running under the group www-data, therefore I took this advice for group www-data. The settings for www-data our now these, still this does not solve the problem: www-data:\ :coredumpsize@:\ :coredumpsize-cur=0:\ :datasize=infinity:\ :datasize-cur@:\ :maxproc=8192:\ :maxproc-cur@:\ :memoryuse-cur=128M:\ :memorylocked-cur=128M:\ :openfiles=8192:\ :openfiles-cur@:\ :stacksize=32M:\ :stacksize-cur@:\ :tc=default: I'm wondering what I can do to solve it.

Truth is, the FreeBSD team has done wonders making BSD Unix easy to install and administer. Yea, I had the 'fear and loathing' thing back in the 386BSD days when it helped to have a calculator handy to partition the disk! But that is so long ago, and believe me, it is so much easier today. Even the Display Adapter configuration comes with a GUI setup tool! (That was really needed too!) Maybe we could introduce New Users to FreeBSD with a short description of the difference in philosiphy between Unix and Microsoft (in general). One of Microsoft's primary goals is to hide complexity from their users. This 'design approach' has drawbacks. Sure anyone can use the system, but it comes with this huge 'Man Behind the Curtain'. Think about Microsoft designing that 'Man Behind the Curtain'. Every possible combination of hardware, correct and incorrect. Every possible choice for 'this or that' needs a list box or a dialog wigit! If a choise is overlooked, or eliminated, it's no longer an option! (One of Microsoft's favorite games!) Think of the computer in a larger context - a tool that people use to do complex and repetitive tasks. With this view, the Human CPU will always be a Co-Processor. Older Operating Systems (DOS, Unix...) kept more of the system chores tied up in the Human CPU, which drove the design to reveal all details to the system's users. This is a good approach for General Purpose computing, which needs the greatest flexibility possible. Maybe New Users of FreeBSD, if they come with a Microsoft background, (most likely) would appreciate FreeBSD better if there were a few man pages in the FreeBSD system just for Windows Users. I'm thinking of a section 5 (file formats) manpage for the Windows Registry! Wouldn't that just blow the socks off the average Windows Savvy User! Set it up in the Installation Intro. Discuss briefly the difference in philosiphy between 'Open' systems and Microsoft's systems. Then show them the (man 5 windows-registry) example man page! Conclude the intro by explaining that there is one of these for every possible confiuration file in the whole FreeBSD system! (And that all of them are 'pre- configured' for most installations.) I think that may make many Windows users want to have FreeBSD.

I was suprised by linux RH acutally. I had an old 386/33 w/120 mg drive lying about doing nothing so as an excersise decided to install RH v4.2 on it via ftp. Took 2 trys to figure out how they name their partions but once I got that and the setup asked what kind of FS I wanted partiton to be I listed them and there was about 15+ types. Everything from OS/2 to BSD to DOS, Linux, I think there was mention of VMS in there to. Alot of of esoteric ones but very flexible is right when it comes to types of partitions.

As far as i remember, i tried all the combos i could think of. Mounting /dev/wd1a worked, but then mounting /dev/wd1e didn't. I believe it said 'incorrect superblock number'. I think mounting /dev/wd1s1a worked, but then mounting /dev/wd1s1e or /dev/wd1e didn't. Fortunately, i got the new disk set up so i can't check right now, but could probably try things later if anyone comes up with something that i don't think i tried already. ------^^----------=---------- chris chris@i-planet.com -#--------------=------------ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Aug 7 11:21:37 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA22263 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 7 Aug 1998 11:21:37 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from post.mail.demon.net (post-12.mail.demon.net [194.217.242.41]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id LAA22257 for ; Fri, 7 Aug 1998 11:21:35 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from c.raven@ukonline.co.uk) Received: from (ukonline.co.uk) [212.228.66.197] by post.mail.demon.net with esmtp (Exim 1.82 #2) id 0z4r8g-0002en-00; Fri, 7 Aug 1998 18:21:18 +0000 Message-ID: <35CB4529.484E0C6E@ukonline.co.uk> Date: Fri, 07 Aug 1998 19:19:21 +0100 From: Christopher Raven Organization: CIAN LLC X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.05 [en] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Matthew West CC: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: starting X References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Matthew West wrote: > On Thu, 6 Aug 1998, Shapiro Vladimir wrote: > > > In what FreeBSD's boot files have I to make changes to start X during > > the boot?

We want to put 512M of RAM in it and use the cam kernel. We duly built a 2.2-stable cam kernel configured for 512M of RAM, and installed 512M in the machine. We had to enable the BOUNCE_BUFFERS option for cam support. When we brought the machine up, it panicked on startup when probing the disk controller (aic7890/91) and gave "brkadrint" panic. We cut it back to 384M of RAM in the machine (still using the kernel built for 512M) and it booted fine. Any pointers as to what could be going wrong?

If you start apache as part of system boot, it uses login group daemon. This is different that the regular user/group Rather than changing settings explicitly I've started using tc like :tc=root: to increase the settings.

There isn't support for Token Ring, period. It's under development. Once the framework is in the system then we could move on to developing a PCCARD driver.

Considering that monitor is chained off the coax link and it's getting collisions, and the rest are on 10BaseT, I'd immediately suspect the coax connection. If there's a flakey device on the chain, incorrect termination, or someone is taking devices off the network you might see the problem for traffic going over that wire. Perhaps the uplink cable from the hub to the router is flakey? > (5) In trying to isolate "monitor"'s problem, I have: > > Replaced cabling for both "monitor" and "server" > > Replaced NIC's for both "monitor" and "server" > > Reloaded the OS for both "M" and "S" > > Both raised and lowered "MAXUSERS" for "server" > > Placed another machine in "monitor's" position So, are you saying it's specific to monitor, independent of the link type? > I am completely out of ideas here.

This way if your new kernel falls over you can still boot !!! your system. 1. Copy if_xl.c and if_xlreg.h to /sys/pci. 2.

I tried the extra space and got: search mydomain.com myisp.com Then I tried the supersede instead of prepend and got: search mydomain.com Which is not quite what I wanted (domain mydomain.com), but at least my system will be running after a reboot. But reading man resolv.conf shows that "search" should be sufficient instead of "domain" as the hostname in question contains "mydomain.com". > > Another issue is that after initiating dhclient edo, I must manullay redo > > my ed1 details via ifconfig ed1 10.0.0.5 255.255.255.0.

This is interesting. I have ed0 (outside world) and ed1 (my subnet) on this box. If I issue "dhclient ed0", ed1 is also reconfigured and I must issue "ifconfig ed1 10.0.0.5 255.255.255.0" before comms work again . This appears to conflict with the man pages on dhclient.

Perhaps dhclient didn't find ep0 but found ed0, so it configured that. -- Dan Langille DVL Software Limited http://www.dvl-software.com/freebsd : my [mis]adventures To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Aug 7 13:43:11 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA18304 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 7 Aug 1998 13:43:11 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from resnet.uoregon.edu (resnet.uoregon.edu [128.223.144.32]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA18220 for ; Fri, 7 Aug 1998 13:42:41 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by resnet.uoregon.edu (8.8.5/8.8.8) with SMTP id NAA11104; Fri, 7 Aug 1998 13:42:17 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu) Date: Fri, 7 Aug 1998 13:42:17 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug White To: Jack Freelander cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: another ?

Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG As I have started working with FreeBSD 3.0-CURRENT to run an Undernet IRC Server. As this monolithic program allows thousands of clients to connect to it, I had to allow thousands of FD's to be open, which has been done and works fine. The big question is that the 3.0 release now supports poll() as well as select() to service the FD's. The Undernet IRCD allows me to use either method by selecting it at compile time. So any of you hardcore C programmers out their know what is better for this environment? The the configure program uses poll() by default if it finds it available, but I suspect that is from SysV, so wondered if this is still the correct action for FBSD. For now I am running with poll() enabled, but thought I would see what others feelings were on this.. --- Howard Leadmon - hdl@abs.net - http://www.abs.net ABSnet Internet Services - Phone: 410-361-8160 - FAX: 410-361-8162 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Aug 7 17:02:24 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA24261 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 7 Aug 1998 17:02:24 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: (from grog@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA24239 for FreeBSD-questions@FreeBSD.org; Fri, 7 Aug 1998 17:02:16 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from grog) Date: Fri, 7 Aug 1998 17:02:16 -0700 (PDT) From: Greg Lehey Message-Id: <199808080002.RAA24239@hub.freebsd.org> To: FreeBSD-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: How to get best results from FreeBSD-questions Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG How to get the best results from FreeBSD questions. =================================================== Last update 23 February 1998 This is a regular posting to the FreeBSD questions mailing list. If you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your message: - You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate. - You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read. - You asked more than one unrelated question in one message. - You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone. - You sent out the same message more than once. - You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions.

IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V: How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction =============== This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the "newcomers"), and also those who answer the questions (the "hackers"). Note that the term "hacker" has nothing to do with break- ing into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is "cracker", but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions ============================================== When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG. In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list! If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list, you can send mail to "Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG" with the following command in the body of your email message: unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as grog@lemis.de. Since then, I have changed it to grog@lemis.com. If I were to try to remove grog@lemis.com from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2. You're subscribed to a mailing list which is subscribed to FreeBSD-questions. If that's the case, you'll have to figure out which one it is and get your name taken off that one. If you're not sure which one it might be, check the headers of the messages you receive from freebsd-questions: maybe there's a clue there. If you've done all this, and you still can't figure out what's going on, send a message to Postmaster@FreeBSD.org, and he will sort things out for you. Don't send a message to FreeBSD-questions: they can't help you. III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers? ========================================= Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD, FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers. In some cases, it's not really clear which group you should ask. The following criteria should help for 99% of all questions, however: If the question is of a general nature, ask FreeBSD-questions. Examples might be questions about intstalling FreeBSD or the use of a particular UNIX utility. If you think the question relates to a bug, but you're not sure, or you don't know how to look for it, send the message to FreeBSD-questions. If the question relates to a bug, and you're sure that it's a bug (for example, you can pinpoint the place in the code where it happens, and you maybe have a fix), then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. If the question relates to enhancements to FreeBSD, and you can make suggestions about how to implement them, then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. There are also a number of other specialized mailing lists, for example FreeBSD-isp, which caters to the interests of ISPs (Internet Service Providers) who run FreeBSD. If you happen to be an ISP, this doesn't mean you should automatically send your questions to FreeBSD-isp. The criteria above still apply, and it's in your interest to stick to them, since you're more likely to get good results that way. IV: How to submit a question ============================= When submitting a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider the following points: 1. Remember that nobody gets paid for answering a FreeBSD question. They do it of their own free will. You can influence this free will positively by submitting a well-formulated question supplying as much relevant information as possible. You can influence this free will negatively by submitting an incomplete, illegible, or rude question. It's perfectly possible to send a message to FreeBSD-questions and not get an answer even if you follow these rules. It's much more possible to not get an answer if you don't. In the rest of this document, we'll look at how to get the most out of your question to FreeBSD-questions. 2. Not everybody who answers FreeBSD questions reads every message: they look at the subject line and decide whether it interests them. Clearly, it's in your interest to specify a subject. ``FreeBSD problem'' or ``Help'' aren't enough. If you provide no subject at all, many people won't bother reading it. If your subject isn't specific enough, the people who can answer it may not read it. 3. Format your message so that it is legible, and PLEASE DON'T SHOUT!!!!!. We appreciate that a lot of people don't speak English as their first language, and we try to make allowances for that, but it's really painful to try to read a message written full of typos or without any line breaks. A lot of badly formatted messages come from bad mailers or badly configured mailers. The following mailers are known to send out badly formatted messages without you finding out about them: Eudora exmh Microsoft Exchange Microsoft Internet Mail Microsoft Outlook Netscape As you can see, the mailers in the Microsoft world are frequent offenders. If at all possible, use a UNIX mailer. If you must use a mailer under Microsoft environments, make sure it is set up correctly. Try not to use MIME: a lot of people use mailers which don't get on very well with MIME. For further information on this subject, check http://www.lemis.com/email.html. 4. Make sure your time and time zone are set correctly. This may seem a little silly, since your message still gets there, but many of the people you are trying to reach get several hundred messages a day. They frequently sort the incoming messages by subject and by date, and if your message doesn't come before the first answer, they may assume they missed it and not bother to look. 5. Don't include unrelated questions in the same message. Firstly, a long message tends to scare people off, and secondly, it's more difficult to get all the people who can answer all the questions to read the message. 6. Specify as much information as possible. This is a difficult area, and we need to expand on what information you need to submit, but here's a start: If you get error messages, don't say ``I get error messages'', say (for example) ``I get the error message 'No route to host'''. If your system panics, don't say ``My system panicked'', say (for example) ``my system panicked with the message 'free vnode isn't'''. If you have difficulty installing FreeBSD, please tell us what hardware you have. In particular, it's important to know the IRQs and I/O addresses of the boards installed in your machine. If you have difficulty getting PPP to run, describe the configuration. Which version of PPP do you use? What kind of authentication do you have? Do you have a static or dynamic IP address? What kind of messages do you get in the log file? 7. If you do all this, and you still don't get an answer, there could be other reasons. For example, the problem is so complicated that nobody knows the answer, or the person who does know the answer was offline. If you don't get an answer after, say, a week, it might help to re-send the message. If you don't get an answer to your second message, though, you're probably not going to get one from this forum. Resending the same message again and again will only make you unpopular. To summarize, let's assume you know the answer to the following question (yes, it's the same one in each case :-). You choose which of these two questions you would be more prepared to answer: Message 1: Subject: (none) I just can't get hits damn silly FereBSD system to workd, and Im really good at this tsuff, but I have never seen anythign sho difficult to install, it jst wont work whatever I try so why don't y9ou guys tell me what I doing wrong. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message 2: Subject: Problems installing FreeBSD I've just got the FreeBSD 2.1.5 CD-ROM from Walnut Creek, and I'm having a lot of difficulty installing it. I have a 66 MHz 486 with 16 MB of memory and an Adaptec 1540A SCSI board, a 1.2GB Quantum Fireball disk and a Toshiba 3501XA CD-ROM drive. The installation works just fine, but when I try to reboot the system, I get the message "Missing Operating System". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- V: How to answer a question =========================== Before you answer a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider: 1. A lot of the points on submitting questions also apply to answering questions. Read them. 2. Has somebody already answered the question? The easiest way to check this is to sort your incoming mail by subject: then (hopefully) you'll see the question followed by any answers, all together. If somebody has already answered it, it doesn't automatically mean that you shouldn't send another answer. But it makes sense to read all the other answers first. 3. Do you have something to contribute beyond what has already been said? In general, "Yeah, me too" answers don't help much, although there are exceptions, like when somebody is describing a problem he's having, and he doesn't know whether it's his fault or whether there's something wrong with the hardware or software. If you do send a "me too" answer, you should also include any further relevant information. 4. Are you sure your answer is correct? If not, wait a day or so. If nobody else comes up with a better answer, you can still reply and say, for example, "I don't know if this is correct, but since nobody else has replied, why don't you try replacing your ATAPI CD-ROM with a frog?". 5. Don't do a group reply; lots of people send messages with hundreds of CCs. Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, just reply to the person and copy FreeBSD-questions. 6. Trim the original message to the minimum, and use some technique to identify which text came from the original message, and which text you add. I personally find that prepending "> " to the original message works best. Leaving white space after the ">" and leave empty lines between your text and the original text both make the result more readable. Most mailers change the subject line on a reply by prepending a text such as "Re: ". If your mailer doesn't do it automatically, you should do it manually. If the submitter didn't abide by format conventions (lines too long, inappropriate subject line), *please* fix it. In the case of an incorrect subject line (such as "HELP!!??"), change the subject line to (say) "Re: Difficulties with sync PPP (was: HELP!!??)". That way other people trying to follow the thread will have less difficulty following it. In such cases, it's appropriate to say what you did and why you did it, but try not to be rude. If you find you can't answer without being rude, don't answer. If you just want to reply to a message because of its bad format, just reply to the submitter, not to the list. You can just send him this message in reply, if you like.

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, "The Complete FreeBSD", published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. Since going to press, a number of anomalies have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the first edition, formatted on 19 July 1996. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the second edition (16 December 1997), please check the parallel posting or get the file at ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2. I apply these changes to the current source of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me (grog@freebsd.org). --- Changes: 5 December 1996 --- Page 192: Middle of the page, the indented small print comment. Replace with: If your system doesn't have the directory /usr/src/sys, then the kernel source has not been installed. To install from the CD-ROM, perform the following steps: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/dists/src/sys.* | tar xzvf - The symbolic link /sys for /usr/src/sys is not strictly necessary, but it's a good idea: some software uses it, and otherwise you may end up with two different copies of the sources. --- Changes: 28 November 1996 --- Page 135, second paragraph: replace with In addition, you may need to create the device nodes if they don't already exist. By default, the system contains four virtual terminal devices in the /dev directory. If you use more than this number, you must create them, either with MAKEDEV (see page 162), or with mknod (see page 573). When calculating how many devices you need, note that if you intend to run X11, you need a terminal device without a getty for the X server. For example, if you have enabled /dev/ttyv3, /dev/ttyv4, and /dev/ttyv5, and you also want to run X, you will need a total of 7 virtual terminals (/dev/ttyv0 through /dev/ttyv6). With MAKEDEV, you specify how many virtual terminals you need: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV vty7 make 7 vtys Alternatively, you can do this with mknod: # cd /dev # ls -l ttyv0 crw------- 1 root wheel 12, 0 Nov 28 10:25 ttyv0 # mknod ttyv3 c 12 3 # mknod ttyv4 c 12 4 # mknod ttyv5 c 12 5 # mknod ttyv6 c 12 6 In this example, you list the entry for /dev/ttyv0 in order to check the major device number of the virtual terminals (that's the 12, in this example; it may change from one release to another). You need to specify this number to mknod. For more details about major and minor device numbers, see page 160. --- Changes: 20 November 1996 --- Figure 10-4, page 172: The devices in the FreeBSD slice are called /dev/sd1s2a through /dev/sd1s2h, not /dev/sd1s3a through /dev/sd1s3h as shown. Figure 10-6, page 176: The devices in the FreeBSD slice are *still* called /dev/sd1s2a through /dev/sd1s2h, not /dev/sd1s1a through /dev/sd1s1h as shown. (Well, at least the average turned out right :-) The man page section (pages 225 to 766) was sorted by ASCII name of the man page, with the result that the man pages whose names start with upper-case letters come before those whose names start with lower-case letters. Sorry about that. If you're looking for a man page, probably the best place to start is in the Table of Contents on page vi. The man pages are really just excerpts. The total FreeBSD man pages format to some 6,000 pages, far more than I could possibly put in this book. --- Changes: 1 November 1996 --- Major changes: 1. No difference in installation from ATAPI CD-ROM drives. When "The Complete FreeBSD" was written, you still needed a separate installation procedure for installing from ATAPI CD-ROM drives. This is no longer the case. The following modifications to the text come as a result: Page 14, table: Remove references to atapiflp.bat and inst_ide.bat. FreeBSD 2.1.5 no longer has separate boot floppies and installation procedures for ATAPI CD-ROM drives. Page 29: Remove the text "You will also need a different boot disk (/cdrom/floppies/atapi.flp). If you are creating the boot floppy with MS-DOS, you can use the file ATAPIFLP.BAT to create the floppy." The resultant text reads: IDE CD-ROM drives, more properly called ATAPI CD-ROM drives, are a new kind of CD-ROM drive which connect to the same controller as your IDE hard disk. Currently, FreeBSD 2.1.5 support for ATAPI CD-ROM drives is in alpha test. In order to install from an ATAPI CD-ROM, the drive must be jumpered as slave device. The installation may or may not work--please let us know if it doesn't, especially if you can give us some indication about the cause of the trouble. You can also create this boot diskette with the aid of the VIEW program (see Chapter 4, Installing FreeBSD, page 38). Page 35: Remove the points referring to atapi.flp. The text for the third box from the bottom of the page should read: If the direct boot doesn't work, you will need to make a boot floppy, which may be either a 3 1/2" or a 5 1/4" diskette. Create a boot floppy by copying the image /cdrom/boot.flp to diskette. Refer to Chapter 2, Installing FreeBSD, page 39. If you have an IDE (ATAPI) CD-ROM drive, see also the section on this kind of drive in Chapter 2, Installation Concepts, page 29. Page 43, after first example: remove references to ATAPI. The resultant text should read: Don't try this from MS Windows--the installation will fail with the message not enough memory. The boot will progress in the same way as if you had booted from floppy. The advantage of starting VIEW is that you get more documentation: ultimately VIEW will start INSTALL to boot the system. INSTALL doesn't always work. It depends on what drivers or TSRs are in your system. There's no reason to try changing your MS-DOS configuration to get it to work: it's a lot easier just to boot from floppy (see page 38 for further information). 2. Changes to section on installing a second disk. Page 170: The bottom paragraph should read: When the message Three seconds until format begins... appears, you can still change your mind by hitting CTRL-C before the message Formatting... appears. After that, you can't stop the format: most disks can perform a format by themselves, so scsiformat just issues the command to format the disk. Since there is no SCSI bus activity, the disk activity lamp will also not light up, and since the scsiformat program will just be waiting and not using any CPU time, you could easily get the impression the nothing is going on. The disk format can take a long time--depending on the disk, up to 90 minutes. Page 173, after table 10-5: Add the text If you're unlucky, fdisk will give you a completely different idea of the disk geometry from what scsiformat did. Possibly you can decide by examination which program is wrong, or maybe you can look at the dmesg output for a tie-breaker. In all cases I have seen, it has been fdisk that returned the incorrect information, and only when the disk did not have a valid partition table. For example, this happened with a disk formatted for BSD/OS: # scsiformat sd1 MICROP 2112-15MQ1094802 HQ48 Mode data length: 35 Medium type: 0 Device Specific Parameter: 0 Block descriptor length: 8 Density code: 0 Number of blocks: 2051615 Reserved: 0 Block length: 512 PS: 1 Reserved: 0 Page code: 4 Page length: 22 Number of Cylinders: 1760 Number of Heads: 15 Starting Cylinder-Write Precompensation: 0 Starting Cylinder-Reduced Write Current: 0 Drive Step Rate: 0 Landing Zone Cylinder: 0 Reserved: 0 RPL: 0 Rotational Offset: 0 Reserved: 0 Medium Rotation Rate: 5400 Reserved: 0 Reserved: 0 # fdisk sd1 ******* Working on device /dev/rsd1 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=160 heads=256 sectors/track=50 (12800 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=160 heads=256 sectors/track=50 (12800 blks/cyl) Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 0 is: sysid 255,(BBT (Bad Blocks Table)) start 1023744, size 2108293151 (1029440 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 768/ sector 15/ head 147; end: cyl 0/ sector 0/ head 255 The data for partition 1 is: sysid 101,(Novell Netware 3.xx) start 1646292846, size 1814062195 (885772 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 356/ sector 50/ head 0; end: cyl 256/ sector 50/ head 114 The data for partition 2 is: sysid 0,(unused) start 0, size 0 (0 Meg), flag 61 beg: cyl 364/ sector 37/ head 98; end: cyl 0/ sector 0/ head 0 The data for partition 3 is: Looking at the output from dmesg, we see: (aha0:1:0): "MICROP 2112-15MQ1094802 HQ48" type 0 fixed SCSI 2 sd1(aha0:1:0): Direct-Access 1001MB (2051615 512 byte sectors) sd1(aha0:1:0): with 1760 cyls, 15 heads, and an average 77 sectors/track In this case, then, you should use the parameters 1760 cylinders, 15 heads, and 77 sectors per track. What's less obvious here is the number of cylinders: fdisk doesn't have an opinion, and scsiformat and dmesg decided it has 2,051,615 sectors. Unfortunately, if you calculate the number according to the formula cylinders x heads x sectors, you'll come up with a different result: in this case 1760 x 15 x 77 = 2,032,800. How come? The disks report the total number of sectors, including spare tracks and such, but you can't use them all. The 2,032,800 is the correct number, and if you try to specify 2,051,615 to disklabel, it will spit out lots of messages about partitions which go beyond the end of the disk. Page 173, middle of page. Change the text after the "no magic" message to: The message no magic doesn't mean that fdisk is out of purple smoke. It refers to the fact that it didn't find the so-called magic number, which identifies the partition table. Since we don't have a partition table yet, this message isn't surprising. It's also completely harmless. Page 173, last example. Remove the first 22 lines, from ******* Working on device /dev/rsd1 ******* to, but not including the next occurrence of this line. Page 177, bulleted list: add the bullet * The total number of sectors in the partition. Calculate the number from the the formula cylinders x heads x sectors, even if you are using the whole disk: the output from dmesg or scsiformat is not correct here. Page 178, middle of page: after # disklabel -w -r /dev/sd1c cdc94161 insert When you do this, expect a kernel message (in high-intensity display) saying ``Cannot find disk label''. Since there isn't any label, it can't be found. This is another harmless chicken and egg problem. Page 182: In the section "Creating the file systems", add the first line to the example: # newfs /dev/rsd1h Further down the page, the last example should also read # newfs /dev/rsd1h 3. Other changes Page 41, after the heading "Installing from an MS-DOS partition". Add the text: It's also possible to install from a primary MS-DOS partition on the first disk. At the moment, it's not possible to install from extended partitions. Page 136, bottom: Add the text If you are changing the root password, be careful: it's easy enough to lock yourself out of the system if you mess things up, which could happen if, for example, you mistyped the password twice in the same way (don't laugh, it happens). If you're running X, open another window and use su to become root. If you're running in character mode, select another virtual terminal and log in as root there. Only when you're sure you can still access root should you log out. Page 152, just before the heading "The online manual". Add: Yes, you really need to run latex three times in order to build the cross-references. Page 199, the end of the multipage table is garbled. It should read: ze0 214 IBM/National Semiconductor PCMCIA ethernet controller zp0 214 3Com PCMCIA Etherlink III Page 205: Change the section titled "lpt0" to: lpt0 through lpt2 are the three printer ports you could conceivably have. Most people don't have three printers: you can comment out the definitions of the printers which you don't have. Page 208, bottom of page: swap the italicized headings "Adaptec 274X controller" and "Adaptec 1274X controller" Many thanks to Paul DuBois and Jerry Dunham for finding many of these bugs.

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. The second edition has only just been published, but already a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the first edition of 19 July 1996, please check ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/.

If you find a bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at General changes _______________ o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the following command to find process information: $ ps aux | grep foo Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator upon which it is working. This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake for this information Location of the sample files ____________________________ On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM). The 2.2.5 CD-ROM came out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM as a single gzipped tar file /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz. It contains the following files: drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/ drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/mutt/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 352 Oct 15 15:21 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.mail_aliases -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 9394 Oct 15 15:22 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.muttrc drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 18281 Oct 16 16:52 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.fvwm2rc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 1392 Oct 17 12:54 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-desktop -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 296 Oct 17 12:35 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.xinitrc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 622 Oct 17 13:51 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-rcfiles -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1133 Oct 17 13:00 1997 cfbsd/scripts/Uutry -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1028 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/README drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 18 19:32 1997 cfbsd/docs/ Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 199111 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 189333 Oct 16 14:28 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 188108 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 226439 Oct 16 14:27 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 788 Oct 16 15:01 1997 cfbsd/README -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 248 Oct 17 11:52 1997 cfbsd/errata To extract one of these files, say cfbsd/docs/packages.txt, and assuming you have the CD-ROM mounted as /cdrom, enter: # cd /usr/share/doc # tar xvzf /cdrom/xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz cfbsd/docs/packages.txt See page 209 for more information on using tar. These files are an early version of what is described in the book. I'll put up some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future. Thanks to Frank McCormick for drawing this to my attention. Chapter 8: Setting up X11 _________________________ For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical to distribute errata. You can download the PostScript version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps, or the ASCII version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt. No HTML version is available. Page xxxiv __________ Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add: In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents (sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh). With the exception of sh, they are all in the Ports Collection. I personally use the bash shell. This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard shell. The standard BSD shell is the C shell (csh), which has a fuller- featured descendent tcsh. In particular, the standard installation sets the root user up with a csh. See page 152 (in this errata) for details of how to change the shell. Page 3 General changes Page 11: Reading the handbook _____________________________ The CD-ROM now includes Mosaic and Netscape. Replace the last paragraph on the page and the example on the following page with: If you're running X, you can use a browser like Mosaic or Netscape to read the handbook. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. If you don't have X running, use lynx. To install them, enter: $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/mosaic-2.7b5.tgz or $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-3.04.tgz or $ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.7.2.tgz The numbers after the name (2.7b5, 3.04 and 2.7.2) may change after this book has been printed. Use ls to list the names if you can't find these particular versions. Thanks to Stuart Henderson for drawing this to my attention. Page 12: Printing the handbook ______________________________ The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete. Replace the section starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text: Alternatively, you can print out the handbook. You need to have the documentation sources (/usr/doc) installed on your system. You can find them on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name. To install them, first mount your CD-ROM (see page 175). Then enter: $ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook $ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook you may need to be root for this operation $ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook You have a choice of formats for the output: o ascii will give you plain 7-bit ASCII output, suitable for reading on a character-mode terminal. Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser. o latex will give you LATEX format, suitable for further processing with TEX and LATEX. o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing. o roff will give you output in troff source. You can process this output with nroff or troff, but it's currently not very polished. LATEX output is a better choice if you want to process it further. Once you have decided your format, use make to create the document. For example, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter: $ make FORMATS=ps This creates a file handbook.ps which you can then print to a PostScript printer or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222). Thanks to Bob Beer for drawing this to my attention. Page 45: Preparing floppies for installation _____________________________________________ Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page) with: The floppy set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start with bin. followed by two letters. These other files are all 240640 bytes long, except for the final one which is usually shorter. Use the MS-DOS COPY program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until you've got all the distributions you want packed up in this fashion. Copy each distribution into subdirectory corresponding to the base name--for example, copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on. Page 80 and 81 ______________ In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 5 General changes Page 88: setting up for dumping _______________________________ The example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf. This variable is no longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev. Page 92 _______ At the end of the section How to install a package add the text: Alternatively, you can install packages from the /stand/sysinstall Final Configuration Menu. We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71. When you start sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu by selecting Index, and then selecting Configure. Page 93 _______ Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add: Install ports when installing the system ________________________________________ The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all the ports. You can install it with the base system if you select the Custom distribution and include the ports collection. If you didn't install them at the time, use the following method to install them all (about 40 MB). Make sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter: Page 96 _______ Replace the example at the top of the page with: Instead, do: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # for i in *; do > ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i > done Page 6 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven and Francois Jacques for drawing this to my attention. Page 128 ________ Replace the complete text below the example with the following: These values are defaults, and many are either incorrect for FreeBSD (for example the device name /dev/com1) or do not apply at all (for example Xqueue). If you are configuring manually, select one Protocol and one Device entry from the following selection. If you must use a two-button mouse, uncomment the keyword Emulate3Buttons--in this mode, pressing both mouse buttons simultane- ously within Emulate3Timeout milliseconds causes the server to report a middle button press. Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" for Microsoft protocol mice Protocol "MouseMan" for Logitech mice Protocol "PS/2" for a PS/2 mouse Protocol "Busmouse" for a bus mouse Device "/dev/ttyd0" for a mouse on the first serial port Device "/dev/ttyd1" for a mouse on the second serial port Device "/dev/ttyd2" for a mouse on the third serial port Device "/dev/ttyd3" for a mouse on the fourth serial port Device "/dev/psm0" for a PS/2 mouse Device "/dev/mse0" for a bus mouse Emulate3Buttons only for a two-button mouse EndSection You'll notice that the protocol name does not always match the manufacturer's name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech Page 7 Install ports when installing the system mice. The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft protocols. Nearly all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both. If you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver is included in the kernel. The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both mice, but the PS/2 driver is disabled. Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it. Page 140 ________ Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph: If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. Reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter: # mount -u / mount root file system read/write # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 148 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Modern shells supply command line editing which resembles the editors vi or Emacs. In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering Page 152 ________ After figure 10-8, add the following text: It would be tedious for every user to put settings in their private initialization files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file. For the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the corresponding individual files. Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environment variables at a global level. Changing your shell ___________________ The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing. See page 148 for details of how to enable it. You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection. You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash, also in the Ports Collection. If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's an example before: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /bin/csh Full Name: Jack Velte Location: Office Phone: Home Phone: You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this to: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash Full Name: Jack Velte Location: On the road Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999 Home Phone: chsh checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and exit the editor. The next time you log in, you get the new shell. chsh tries to ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a very Page 9 Install ports when installing the system good idea to check the shell before logging out. You can try this with su, which you normally use to become super user: bumble# su velte Password: su-2.00$ note the new prompt There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell: o The shell for root must be on the root file system, otherwise it will not work in single user mode. Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is almost never on the root file system. o Most shells are dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files such as /usr/lib/libc.a. These files are not available in single user mode, so the shells won't work. You can solve this problem by creating statically linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond the scope of this book. If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps to install it: o Copy the shell to /bin, for example: # cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells, in this example the line in bold print: # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1). # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using # one of these shells. /bin/sh /bin/csh /bin/bash You can then change the shell for root as described above. Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. Page 10 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 160 ________ Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 176 ________ Add the following paragraph Unmounting file systems When you mount a file system, the system assumes it is going to stay there, and in the interests of efficiency it delays writing data back to the file system. This is the same effect we discussed on page 158. As a result, if you want to stop using a file system, you need to tell the system about it. You do this with the umount command. Note the spelling--there's no n in the command name. You need to do this even with read-only media such as CD-ROMs: the system assumes it can access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite unhappy if it can't. Where possible, it locks removable media so that you can't remove them from the device until you unmount them. Using umount is straightforward: just tell it what to unmount, either the device name or the directory name. For example, to unmount the CD-ROM we mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands: # umount /dev/cd1a # umount /cd1 Before unmounting a file system, umount checks that nobody is using it. If somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like umount: /cd1: Device busy. This message often occurs because you have changed your directory to a directory on the file system you want to remove. For example (which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt): Page 11 Install ports when installing the system === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1 umount: /cd1: Device busy === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1 === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 -> Thanks to Ken Deboy for pointing out this omission. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label. Page 208, middle of page ________________________ The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and /dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use /dev/nrst0 with any shell if you want a non-rewinding tape, or /dev/rst0 if you want a rewinding tape. Thanks to Norman C Rice for pointing out this one. Page 219 ________ Before the section Testing the spooler add the following section: Starting the spooler ____________________ As we saw above, the line printer daemon lpd is responsible for printing spooled jobs. If you're root, you can start it by name: Page 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition # lpd Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system starts up. You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf: lpd_enable="YES" # Run the line printer daemon See page 1609 for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my attention. Page 231 ________ Replace the first line of the example with: xhost presto bumble gw The original version allowed anybody on the Internet to access your system. Thanks to Jerry Dunham for drawing this one to my attention. Page 237 ________ In the section Installing the sample desktop, replace the first paragraph with: You'll find all the files described in this chapter on the first CD-ROM (Installation CD-ROM) in the directory /book. Remember that you must mount the CD-ROM before you can access the files--see page 175 for further details. The individual scripts are in the directory /book/scripts, but you'll probably find it easier to install them with the script install-desktop: Thanks to Chris Kaiser for drawing this to my attention. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in Page 13 Starting the spooler the directory /src. Replace the example with: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/src/ssys.[a-d]* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel , Suttipan Limanond and Satwant for finding this one in several small slices. Page 257 ________ Replace the paragraph Berkeley Packet Filter with: pseudo-device bpfilter ______________________ The Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) allows you to capture packets crossing a network interface to disk or to examine them with the tcpdump program. Note that this capability represents a significant compromise of network security. The number after bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes that can use the facility. Not all network interfaces support bpf. In order to use the Berkeley Packet Filter, you must also create the device nodes /dev/bpf0 to /dev/bpf3 (if you're using the default number 4). Current- ly, MAKEDEV doesn't help much--you need to create each device separately: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV bpf0 # ./MAKEDEV bpf1 # ./MAKEDEV bpf2 # ./MAKEDEV bpf3 Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 264 ________ In the list of disk driver flags, add: Page 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition o Bit 12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode). If this bit is not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode. o In CHS mode, if bits 11 to 8 are not equal to 0, they specify the number of heads to assume (between 1 and 15). The driver recalculates the number of cylinders to make up the total size of the disk. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' ______________________________________ Add a third point to what you need to know: 3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates. This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. ___________________________________ Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 294 ________ Add the following section: Problems executing Linux binaries _________________________________ One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux binaries is that they usually contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries. They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries. That's not really a Page 15 Starting the spooler problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 2.2.7 understands is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format as well, and of course that's the default. If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on such a system, you must brand the executable using the program brandelf. For example, to brand the StarOffice program swriter3, you would enter: # brandelf -t linux /usr/local/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3 Thanks to Dan Busarow for bringing this to my attention. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the corresponding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: Page 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 422 ________ Replace the text above the example with: tcpdump is a program which monitors a network interface and displays selected information which passes through it. It uses the Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf), an optional component of the kernel. It is not included in the GENERIC kernel: see page 257 for information on how to configure it. If you don't configure the Berkeley Packet Filter, you will get a message like tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: device not configured If you forget to create the devices for bpf, you will get a message like: tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: No such file or directory Since tcpdump poses a potential security problem, you must be root in order to run it. The simplest way to run it is without any parameters. This will cause tcpdump to monitor and display all traffic on the first active network interface, normally Ethernet: Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 423 ________ The description at the top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address instead of Ethernet address. In addition, a page number reference is incorrect. Replace the paragraph with: o Line 1 shows an ARP request: system presto is looking for the Ethernet address of wait. It would appear that wait is currently not responding, since there is no reply. o Line 2 is not an IP message at all. tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and the beginning of the packet. We don't consider this kind of request in this Page 17 Starting the spooler book. o Line 3 is a broadcast ntp message. We looked at ntp on page 160. o Line 4 is another attempt by presto to find the IP address of wait. o Line 5 is a broadcast message from bumble on the rwho port, giving information about its current load averages and how long it has been up. See the man page for rwho on page 1167 for more information. o Line 6 is from a TCP connection between port 6000 on freebie and port 1089 on presto. It is sending 384 bytes (with the sequence numbers 536925467 to 536925851; see page 305), and is acknowledging that the last byte it received from presto had the sequence number 325114346. The window size is 17280. o Line 7 is another ARP request. presto is looking for the Ethernet address of freebie. How can that happen? We've just seen that they have a TCP connection. In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes. It's quite possible that all connections between presto and freebie have been dormant for this period, so presto needs to find freebie's IP address again. o Line 8 is the ARP reply from freebie to presto giving its Ethernet address. o Line 9 shows a reply from presto on the connection to freebie that we saw on line 6. It acknowledges the data up to sequence number 536925851, but doesn't send any itself. o Line 10 shows another 448 bytes of data from freebie to presto, and acknowledging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6. Thanks to Sergei S. Laskavy for drawing this to my attention. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd. Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very important: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%.

I don't understand what you where saying here. Maybe you could repeat it after taking a little more time and consideration into what you are typing. No offense intended, I just don't understand what you wrote. :>From what I,ve been reading it seems that FreeBSD is a ms-dos operating :system ? For starter's, MS-DOS is an operating system in itself. You can only have one operating system loaded at a single point in time (correct me if I am wrong). Windows95 is not an operating system, just a program run over top of DOS. FreeBSD is an Operating System in itself. You don't "double click" a FreeBSD ICON and it run's FreeBSD. I suggest reading a little more. I would also like to know where you got this conclusion from. :Question: Will FreeBSD run under Windows NT ? FreeBSD will not run UNDER WindowsNT, but it can be run in place of, or right before, right after, whichever. But you can not run an OS under an OS. That is just like asking Windows95 not to crash and burn, just won't happen. What you can do is DUAL BOOT, which is covered in the FreeBSD manual. Or TRIPLE BOOT, or QUAD BOOT. There is no (known to me) limitation to how many DIFFERENT operating systems you can boot. The only known limit to me is Disk Space, and maybe partitions. :Thank you Dennis Your Welcome. ,-----------------------------------------------------------------. | //// "Anything I say represents only my opinion." | | (o o) / | | ,---ooO--(_)--Ooo---------------------------------------------, | | | BRANDON LOCKHART | | | `-------------------------------------------------------------' | | brandon.lockhart@usinternetworking.com brandon@engulf.net | | Work: (410) 897-4551 Pager: (888) xxx-xxxx | `-----------------------------------------------------------------' To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Aug 7 18:43:13 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA08523 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 7 Aug 1998 18:43:13 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ais.ais-gwd.com (ais.ais-gwd.com [205.160.97.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA08464 for ; Fri, 7 Aug 1998 18:42:45 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from charlespeters@tecpro.com) From: charlespeters@tecpro.com Received: from ci1000971-c.sptnbrg1.sc.home.com (blablabla@user61.ais-gwd.com [205.160.97.125]) by ais.ais-gwd.com (8.9.1/8.9.1) with SMTP id VAA22142; Fri, 7 Aug 1998 21:51:55 -0400 (EDT) To: "Child" , Subject: RE: Midpoint gateway evuiq for freebsd Date: Tue, 4 Aug 1998 21:36:59 -0400 Message-ID: <001601bdc011$8a12b220$20710418@ci1000971-c.sptnbrg1.sc.home.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook 8.5, Build 4.71.2173.0 In-Reply-To: <199808071639.LAA03059@gw.sommers.dyn.ml.org> Importance: Normal X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.2106.4 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I use to use Midpoint gateway (for about 1 month). While it did most of what it was advertised to do, email, ftp, telnet, etc... were just to cumbersome to deal with. Also, the Windoze box would lock up periodically. I am currently using freebsd 2.2.6 release to do essentially the same thing. I'm routing tcp/ip packets from a Novell Netware network populated with Windows95 boxes through the freebsd gateway. While the setup is really quite easy (once you know what is going on), it will take the average newbee several hours to get up and running. Since I see that you are an experienced user, you should not have the problems that I encountered. You will need to set up you freebsd box as a gateway, and configure ppp -alias. You can even set up the gateway to act as a proxy server, and to be an intranet server (that's what I did). I am quite pleased with the performance of the system. I am also pleased the say the email, telnet, and ftp operate seemlessly. Your network users really don't even need to know that you are doing anything special. The following location has good info on how to set up the system. http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/ppp/ppp.html Good Luck!

Second I downloaded qvwm to clone a win 95 desktop. My DISPLAY in env is ":0.0" I tried to start qvwm with that device and it says can't open that display. Anyone know how do to fix that? Finally I tried a couple of games and they can not open divice /dev/dsp. I would like to make this device, but I don't even know what it is. I know this is a bunch of trivial stuff, but I would appreciate the help.

I looked around and know that is for a sound device. (At least I think) So, a better question is how do I configure my PC Speaker to be my sound device for these games. I tried to do the make clean and then make -DNOSOUND, but when I tried to run the games, same error. Any information would be appreciated.

I'm using two such wide drives (you didn't say if yours was the wide or narrow version though), a 16X NEC cdrom, and a Wangtek 51000 QIC tape drive with one of those controllers without a hitch. I have auto spinup disabled and the controller sends a START UNIT on boot. Parity is enabled on all devices. The controller is terminating the upper 8 bits of the bus (autoterm on), and the cdrom drive is terminating the the narrow side. I believe i have only the controller supplying termpwr. The cables are the ones that came with the Tekram DC390F.

I have 160 MB memory, multiple disks, a Millenium I, the same SCSI host adaptor, an old CD-ROM changer and multiple tapes, but the heart is in the right place. I'm using a RISE Mustang R581A, which has a (currently unused) AGP port. I bought it in Singapore, mainly because it was the only thing that supported more than 64 MB cached memory. It uses the SIS 5591/5595 chip set, which doesn't get the highest marks, but so far I've been pretty happy with it.

Waitaminnit. If you have an extended DOS partition with some number of logical DOS drives within it, you should REALLY see: C: wd1s1 Extended DOS partition: wd1s2 D: wd1s2a E: wd1s2b F: wd1s2c Third partition (FreeBSD, Linux, whatever): wd1s3 Fourth partition: wd1s4 This would be consistent with the actual structure. The logical DOS drives lie WITHIN the extended partition, which is one of the four possible partitions, or slices. --Brett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Aug 7 23:10:40 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id XAA05614 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 7 Aug 1998 23:10:40 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from harfang.CC.UMontreal.CA (harfang.CC.UMontreal.CA [132.204.2.102]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id XAA05609 for ; Fri, 7 Aug 1998 23:10:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from beaupran@JSP.UMontreal.CA) Received: from epsom.jsp.umontreal.ca (epsom.JSP.UMontreal.CA [132.204.45.25]) by harfang.CC.UMontreal.CA (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id CAA07957 for ; Sat, 8 Aug 1998 02:10:22 -0400 (EDT) Received: from outpost.nada.org (derby.jsp.umontreal.ca [132.204.45.26]) by epsom.jsp.umontreal.ca via SMTP (951211.SGI.8.6.12.PATCH1502/JSP1789) id CAA21997 for ; Sat, 8 Aug 1998 02:10:20 -0400 Date: Sat, 8 Aug 1998 02:12:43 -0400 (EDT) From: Spidey X-Sender: beaupran@outpost.nada.org To: Questions=answers Subject: xdm starting X on other Virtual consoles.

I have a toshiba Satellite T2135CS laptop. I managed only one time to get the mouse working in X after ten days of installing and for the life of me, I cannot get it working again. It will work in Windows so I know it works. xf86config was what I used last time on the 2.2.5 release and I don't know what I did to get it working but it did. I am trying to install 2.2.7 and the mouse configuration screen offers many options. I select auto and PS/2 but it doesn't work and no other combinations seem to work. Can you guys tell me what my choices are and which mouse to link to. I am not a complete novice--2.2.2 and 2.2.5 have both been installed on the desktops but this laptop has gotten me beat.

As I didnt know what the heck to edit out of this post I left it all in for my reply. sorry but it was all to convoluted to not include. At any rate, Ive got RH 4.2 box that I put together to see what all the fuss was over linux a few weeks back and while it accepts telnet connections properly from my freebsd machines it only seems to balk when I log out and says con25 unknown terminal type. I wont bother changing anything as the linux box is stuck in a dark corner of my basement and I rarely ever go to it as its pretty much a single purpose machine to run rc5 from d.net. Easier to telnet when I need to work on it. :) Keith To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Aug 8 00:21:13 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA12144 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 8 Aug 1998 00:21:13 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from inet.chipweb.ml.org (c1003518-a.plstn1.sfba.home.com [24.1.82.47]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id AAA12139 for ; Sat, 8 Aug 1998 00:21:10 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ludwigp@bigfoot.com) Message-Id: <199808080721.AAA12139@hub.freebsd.org> Received: (qmail 18831 invoked from network); 8 Aug 1998 07:20:17 -0000 Received: from speedy.chipweb.ml.org (172.16.1.1) by inet.chipweb.ml.org with SMTP; 8 Aug 1998 07:20:17 -0000 X-Sender: ludwigp2@mail-r X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.0.1 Date: Sat, 08 Aug 1998 00:07:43 -0700 To: Greg Lehey , "W.

But for overclocking, there's a new board I saw but haven't had a chance to try out yet: the FIC VA-503+ (www.fic.com.tw), which can have a bus clock of 124MHz (!) and a multiplier of 5.5 (5.5*124=682MHz!). And the board can come with 1MB of cache. It uses a VIA chipset, takes DIMMs or SIMMs and has an AGP slot. Another board which has been popular for K6-2s and I've actually seen in use is the MS 5169 (www.msi.com.tw), which uses an ALI chipset. It goes up to 100MHz bus with a 5.5 multiplier. It takes DIMMs, up to 512K cache, and has an AGP slot. --Ludwig Pummer ludwigp@bigfoot.com ludwigp@chipweb.ml.org ICQ UIN: 692441 http://chipweb.home.ml.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Aug 8 00:24:02 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA12586 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 8 Aug 1998 00:24:02 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from inet.chipweb.ml.org (c1003518-a.plstn1.sfba.home.com [24.1.82.47]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id AAA12575 for ; Sat, 8 Aug 1998 00:24:01 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ludwigp@bigfoot.com) Message-Id: <199808080724.AAA12575@hub.freebsd.org> Received: (qmail 18849 invoked from network); 8 Aug 1998 07:23:08 -0000 Received: from speedy.chipweb.ml.org (172.16.1.1) by inet.chipweb.ml.org with SMTP; 8 Aug 1998 07:23:08 -0000 X-Sender: ludwigp2@mail-r X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.0.1 Date: Sat, 08 Aug 1998 00:22:49 -0700 To: Stan Blocker , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Ludwig Pummer Subject: Re: Mouse link/selection for Laptop In-Reply-To: <19980808015052.A1436@gordon.flash.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG At 01:50 AM 8/8/98 -0500, Stan Blocker wrote: >Thanks for your time on this one and I need your help.

If they have two, you can build static routes to each of them, and then set up squid to try use both, I think. I think I'll try set this up somewhere, but I'm sure trying won't hurt. Just make squid from /usr/ports/www/squid (I think) and play around with that.

I believe I have covered all of the obvious bases and I have simply run of ideas. I wish to perform an NFS mount. The NFS server in question is www.caldera.com. This is a public NFS server. To make a long story short, I have found that RPC operations fail when performed as root: struct> su Password: # mount -t nfs rim.caldera.com:/OpenLinux-Lite-1.2 /mnt NFS Portmap: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Timed out (... the timeout repeats several times, approx. once a minute.) # rpcinfo -p rim.caldera.com rpcinfo: can't contact portmapper: RPC: Remote system error - Operation timed out (... again the timeout repeats and finally dies) However, the same RPC operation works fine non-root: # exit struct> rpcinfo -p rim.caldera.com program vers proto port 100000 2 tcp 111 portmapper 100000 2 udp 111 portmapper 100005 1 udp 2048 mountd 100005 2 udp 2048 mountd 100005 1 tcp 2048 mountd 100005 2 tcp 2048 mountd 100003 2 udp 2049 nfs 100003 2 tcp 2049 nfs I have configured this host properly: nfs_client_enable, nfs_server_enable and portmap_enable are all assigned YES in rc.conf. I have confirmed that mountd, nfsd, mfsiod and portmap are all running. The kernel is compiled with NFS support. I do not have a firewall interfering. I am using iijppp with no packet filtering. When I started this, I was at 2.2.6-RELEASE. After eliminating all of the above as the source of the problem, I suspected that an upgrade might help; I am now at RELENG_2_2 and getting the same behavior. In all other ways, this is a trouble free IP host. I have several FreeBSD hosts on my private Ethernet. Rpcinfo and NFS (client and server) work fine on all hosts _within_ my network. The problem seems to be specific to root processes attempting non-local RPC communications. I have confirmed that the NFS server in question does allow public clients; several people have been able to mount the NFS volume with Stable systems with no difficulty. In one case, the other person was also using iijppp. BTW, Please forgive the Caldera bit :) The truth is, I am more interested in figuring out why the NFS mount is failing than finding alternative ways of obtaining Caldera.

If you are, create a user that you're going to use when not installing programs and changing system stuff. Then play around with the stuff below if things still don't work. Try, on console: setenv TERM cons25 (if you have a standard 25 line console) OR setenv TERM pc (just something that seems to work) Should start working. To change your shell to tcsh: chsh -s /usr/local/bin/tcsh (assuming you've installed tcsh) (if not, cd /usr/ports/shell/tcsh && make install, and then chsh) Put these in your ~/.tcshrc bindkey -k up history-search-backward bindkey -k down history-search-forward To change your shell to bash: chsh -s /usr/local/bin/bash (assuming you've installed bash) (if not, cd /usr/ports/shell/bash && make install, and then chsh) If you're using win95 telnet, try: setenv TERM vt100 Hope this helps, Neil -- Neil Blakey-Milner nbm@rucus.ru.ac.za To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Aug 8 03:53:54 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id DAA01467 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 8 Aug 1998 03:53:54 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from lucy.bedford.net (lucy.bedford.net [206.99.145.54]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id DAA01462 for ; Sat, 8 Aug 1998 03:53:51 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from listread@lucy.bedford.net) Received: (from listread@localhost) by lucy.bedford.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA04968; Sat, 8 Aug 1998 06:53:20 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from listread) Message-Id: <199808081053.GAA04968@lucy.bedford.net> Subject: Re: dns settup problem In-Reply-To: from Lanny Baron at "Aug 8, 98 01:18:53 am" To: purebeef@shaw.wave.ca Date: Sat, 8 Aug 1998 06:53:20 -0400 (EDT) Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-no-archive: yes Reply-to: djv@bedford.net From: CyberPeasant X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL38 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Lanny Baron wrote: > > Hello, > > I am running a single FreeBSD pc.

You're wrong :) The IBM mainframe OS, MVS, will run several OS's on the same machine, simultaneously. Each user gets his own OS. This is very cool... It does this by presenting the user with a complete virutal machine (registers, memory, IO devices, ...) on which the user can load another operating system. or, for real sport, another copy of MVS itself, which then would create virtual virtual machines for virtual users... Each user has a rather complete illusion that he is the sole user of the machine. Moreover, MVS runs like a bat out of hell. Alas, multiuser interactive machines are obsolete. MS-DOS isn't really an OS. It's a semi-adequate boot monitor. (The boot rom of a Sun workstation is more complicated than MS-DOS.)

Basically, since you know you're going to have this thing installed in, say, South Africa, you can make certain assumptions. Basically, this entails changing a few files in /etc, like make.conf (for USA_RESIDENT, MASTER_SITE_BACKUP, etc) and similar files. I'd like to know whether doing something like this, changing a few configuration files, would be allowed, since I'd like to make FreeBSD more accessible for the many people I'm trying to convert here. (We have an ever-growing Linux base here who are interested in FreeBSD for the servers they administer, and I'd like to assimilate them sneakily. :>) Another project I'm interested in is one that involves installing and configuring a couple of ports by default, in addition to the normal install. IE, a "directed" install, for specific use. (I would start a company to do this, but location and other problems prevent, so I'd like to make this "freely" available.) Basically this is to do things like NAT easier, default ppp scripts for the major ISPs here, etc. I can make all changes available, and besides those changes the FreeBSD installation will be little different from a standard one with a few ports installed. All tools and additions would be released publically, of course. (and if the idea is not allowed by license, or whatever, I'll make and release these tools anyway, of course) I just want to know where I stand "legally" (and, of course, also what the FreeBSD people think of it.)

Is that possible? :I'll pay any ammount. However much you think is suitable. :I'd just really like it if i could possibly get one. I am by no means a suitable contact for FreeBSD.Org other than the fact that I use it and have helped a few people fix some problems. I doubt that this "selling" of a sub-domain will be done though. There are many reasons why. Noone knows your intent for this subdomain. It could just be to look "cool" in front of your friend's. But then what happens if you do something dumb, freebsd.org starts to go down the drain. People will have less respect for it. As far as I can follow the only types of subdomains handed out by freebsd.org are to the people they affiliate with. The servers that are used to download FreeBSD, etc. The developers and what not. Now, I am not sure how much you have to do to be considered a developer, but the way you phrased your questions does not lead me to believe that you are a FreeBSD developer. Now, a quick question for FreeBSD developer's or experienced users. In HP/UX 10.20 you can extend a file system size. In FreeBSD, can you shrink the size of one partition and then increase another? For example, my /var/ is running out of room due to all the log's and the mail stored there. Besides making the directory /usr/mail, and symbolicly linking /var/mail to /usr/mail, is it possible to shrink /usr about 100 megs (1 gig is still free), and then make /var/ take what is left? ,-----------------------------------------------------------------. | //// "Anything I say represents only my opinion." | | (o o) / | | ,---ooO--(_)--Ooo---------------------------------------------, | | | BRANDON LOCKHART | | | `-------------------------------------------------------------' | | brandon.lockhart@usinternetworking.com brandon@engulf.net | | Work: (410) 897-4551 Pager: (888) xxx-xxxx | `-----------------------------------------------------------------' To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Aug 8 07:47:23 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id HAA19910 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 8 Aug 1998 07:47:23 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from myhakas.matti.ee (myhakas.matti.ee [194.126.98.150]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id HAA19898; Sat, 8 Aug 1998 07:47:09 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from root@myhakas.matti.ee) Received: (from root@localhost) by myhakas.matti.ee (8.9.1/8.8.5) id RAA00543; Sat, 8 Aug 1998 17:46:39 +0300 (EEST) Message-ID: <19980808174639.27232@matti.ee> Date: Sat, 8 Aug 1998 17:46:39 +0300 From: Vallo Kallaste To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Cc: se@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Crash: ncr0: SCSI phase error fixup: Reply-To: vallo@matti.ee Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.89i Organization: =?iso-8859-1?Q?AS_Matti_B=FCrootehnika?= Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello !

Machine works, because system partitions are on the other disk, but squid are dead. I can't live with that, machine is dedicated to www cache. Scsi controller type is ASUS PCI-SC875, scsi BIOS version 4.03. Dmesg: Copyright (c) 1992-1997 FreeBSD Inc. Copyright (c) 1982, 1986, 1989, 1991, 1993 The Regents of the University of California.

Here's a (non-useful) program snippet: -------snibegin------ #include #include main() { MYSQL MySQL; mysql_connect(&MySQL, "mrbill", "bill", "metekake"); } /* main */ -------sniend--------- The header file (mysql.h) has the declaration: MYSQL *mysql_connect(MYSQL *mysql, const char *host, const char *user, const char *passwd); I try, and get: MrBill:~/db/src$ cc -I/usr/local/include/mysql -L/usr/local/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient tryme.c /var/tmp/ccSBG4211.o: Undefined symbol `_mysql_connect' referenced from text segment The MySQL docs say I need to add a -lm library as the last linked lib, but that does not help. The compiler checks the mysql header, because syntax or type errors halt compilation. The lib seems OK: MrBill:/usr/local/lib/mysql$ strings libmysqlclient.a | grep connect _mysql_real_connect _mysql_connect _mysql_reconnect _mysql_real_connect _remember_connection _mysql_connect _connect This oughtta be easy.

It collects information about new machines being attached to a network. I do this because I can monitor if someone links a new machine to our nets. For this operation, the network interface is put into promiscuous mode. IIRC, this means that all packets are passed to the kernel and maybe even all to the running program (arpwatch). I wonder if this causes a high load on the machine since I think it might have to process a lot of packages which normally would have thrown away. When looking at the arpwatch process, the time consumed is rather low but I don't know what's going on in a different place maybe...

To see if there is really a performance problem you should probably try to flood the local network segment with a separate machine and see how much load this causes. If you are concerned about performance maybe you can hack the network driver to grab the info you need, store in a table, and access them via some separate interface.

Just have done that and noticed nothing. The program uses bpf and the line which configures it is here: if (pcap_compile(pd, &code, "arp or rarp", 1, netmask) < 0) So I assume that all packets that are no (r)arp packtes are already rejected in the kernel and this is why I don't see anything. > > If you are concerned about performance maybe you can hack the network > driver to grab the info you need, store in a table, and access them via > some separate interface. > > (i am thinking of a similar approach in an attempt to implement bridging > in freebsd). > > cheers > luigi That might be the best idea but at the moment I have a lack of time for doing this.

Does anyone know of a way to make this work the way I am expecting it to? fyi: this seems to work ok under hpux.

Yup. This is a thorny issue, NFS complicates it. To summarize: (let the user be 'dork', and his home dir /home/dorkhome/dork). (dork is a member of group buggy, and that's dork's only group membership). Login6: chdirs as root.wheel. login7 (unfixed) chdirs as dork.wheel login7f (fixed) chdirs as dork.buggy In the table read "r-x(o)" as "has r-x permission through the 'o' field". As seen by root dork login6 login7 login7f / 755 root.wheel rwx r-x(o) rwx r-x(g) r-x(o) /home 755 root.wheel rwx r-x(o) rwx r-x(g) r-x(o) /home/dorkhome 750 root.buggy rwx r-x(g) rwx --- r-x(g) /home/dorkhome/dork 700 dork.buggy rwx(r) rwx rwx(r) rwx rwx In the case of NFS with maproot=nobody, this permission scheme becomes: (root = nobody.wheel, I think. NFS dirs are marked *) / 755 root.wheel rwx r-x(g) rwx r-x(g) r-x(o) /home 755 root.wheel rwx r-x rwx r-x(g) r-x(o) /home/dorkhome* 750 root.buggy --- r-x(g) --- --- r-x(g) /home/dorkhome/dork* 700 dork.buggy --- rwx --- rwx rwx or / 755 root.wheel rwx r-x rwx r-x(g) r-x(o) /home* 755 root.wheel r-x(g) r-x(o) r-x(g) r-x(g) r-x(o) /home/dorkhome* 750 root.buggy --- r-x(g) --- --- r-x(g) /home/dorkhome/dork* 700 dork.buggy --- rwx(o) --- rwx rwx depending on whether /home or /home/dorkhome is the mount point. Immediate conclusion: any "---" field in the right three columns represents a login failure related to the homedir. In the case of a local filesystem, "dork" cannot cd to HOME because user dork does not have r-x from / to HOME. This is because login2.2.7 does a seteuid(dork) before calling chdir, but does not setegid(buggy); so the chdir is done as dork.wheel, which fails. A setegid(buggy) fixes 2.2.7login. dork, once logged in and a member of group buggy, can cd to his HOME in all cases. This could be the basis of a truly horrid workaround involving /.profile /.cshrc /.bash_profile /.login. Adding a call to setegid(pwd->pw.gid) immediately before the seteuid that precedes the (only) chdir(2) call in login.c, we see improvements. In the local case, login is uneventful (except as noted later). In the NFS case, the situation is the same (pseudo-fixed). USING LOGIN 2.2.6: *) the local directory case succeeds. *) the NFS case now fails, for the obvious reason that "root" is really nobody.nobody when it comes time to read /home/dorkhome. dork is logged in, but he is set to "/". He can cd to his home, though, after login. This is the bug that 2.2.7 tried to solve with a seteuid(), but came close. The permissions on the directory tree exhibited here exercise a failure due to false group membership. Access through group membership was overlooked. It must have been assumed that there would be at least --x "other" permissions through the path. A RELATED PROBLEM: Throughout these exercises, intermittent messages appear in syslog, namely: Aug 8 10:15:08 castor login: _secure_path: cannot stat /home/dorkhome/dork/.login_conf: Permission denied These issue between "login:" and "Passwd:"; they arise from routine _secure_path, found in libutil. Casual examination of _secure_path() shows that it, too, may not be finding its way to dork's HOME in the intuitive way. DISCUSSION/REMEDIES: The question is whether this is a bug or a feature in 2.2.7. It's a feature: Then a doc. change should be made specifying that a user needs r-x access to his homedir either through the owner or other fields from / down to homedir. Drawback: this is bizarre semantics. What's the group field for? It's a bug: Then a fix of the nature suggested (setegid()) is in order. Drawback: making it a feature would require (particularly? only?) in the NFS case, for all users (including possibly root) to be members of group "buggy". This would break existing installations, including mine. I use the method where each user belongs to a unique group. Well, I leave it at that... Something(s) need to be changed. Or Mr. Snow needs to be told that his setup is in error. (It will fail under 2.2.6 with a maproot=nobody NFS mount anywhere in the path / --> HOME, I think). How I'd fix it: I guess the setegid(primary group of user) is the proper approach. This has implications for the ownership of the exported NFS fs in the NFS case-- the server must know about groups on clients, and these must be coordinated, NIS-ish, perhaps. Shudder. In 2.2.6, there's no problem with local dirs. Overall, Mr Snow is trying to achieve a goal here with permissions on homedirs and their parent dirs, which he hasn't explicitly stated. There may be a different approach to solve this problem. Possible reasons: *) Users should not be aware of other users' usernames. This is impossible on Unix, since /etc/passwd must be world-readable. *) Users should not be aware of other users' homedirs. Impossible, same reason. *) Users should not be aware of other users' group memberships. Impossible, /etc/group must be world-readable. *) Users should, by default, be unable to read or ls the tree under another user's homedir. This can be achieved by setting the permission on the homedir to 700. Then, for the local dir case, permissions on /home/dorkhome can be relaxed to r-w for "other". This fixes the nfs problems, I think. Blurry vision is setting in... I'm getting a headache...

I used the Soltek SL-54U5 motherboard. It's capable of taking all the K6 3D chips. I also added SDRAM instead of SIMM, better performance by far, and around here it's cheaper, or at the amounts you want to put in, real close in price. Also, I personally prefer the ASUS SC-875 SCSI cards over Adaptec, simply because they're easier to install under FreeBSD, and seem to run quite a bit faster (as do most all ASUS products.) BTW, overclocking CPU chips is a bad idea all around, you don't usually get that much more performance for the risks you run in instability of the system as a whole. If the chip had been meant to go that speed, the manufacturer would have labeled it that speed!

With all the thought that has gone into this, you certainly deserve this explanation. I fear it may be anti-climactic though: We have the following sets of subdirectories and permissions in /home /home/sub1 root.sub1 rwx r-x --- /home/sub2 root.sub2 rwx r-x --- /home/sub3 root.sub3 rwx r-x --- Within /home/sub2, there are, obviously, the homes of the members of sub2. There are also a set of files, call them sub2-shared, that need to be read-accessible to all of sub2's members. Assorted members of sub1 are admins of the sub2-shared files. They need, obviously, read and write access to sub2-shared. Assorted members of sub3 are also allowed read-access sub2-shared. How we have accomplished this (that requires the 2.2.6 behavior of login) is as follows The directory sub2-shared is within /home/sub2, owned by root.sub2-shared-admin, and set to 775. The members of sub1 that need read/write access to this directory are members of sub2 and also of sub2-shared-admin. The assorted members of sub3 who also need read access to sub2-shared are also members of sub2. /home/sub2/sub2-shared root.sub2-shared-admin rwx rwx r-x Assorted users and their groups are as follows (sX being subX) s1user1 sub1, sub2, sub2-shared-admin (can rw sub2-shared) s1user2 sub1, sub2 (can r sub2-shared) s1user3 sub1 (has no idea it exists) s2user1 sub2 (can r sub2-shared) s2user2 sub2, sub2-shared-admin (can rw sub2-shared) s3user1 sub3, sub2, sub2-shared-admin (can rw sub2-shared) s3user2 sub3, sub2 (can r sub2-shared) s3user3 sub3 (has no idea it exists) Not allowing certain users to be aware of the existence of sub2-shared is preferable. The admins of sub2-shared have rw access to it via its group ownership of sub2-shared-admin. The members of sub2 have access to it via being members of sub2, able to cd to /home/sub2, and then subsequently to sub2-shared through world/other permissions. The same is true of assorted members of sub3 and sub1. I realize that an alternative way of doing this would be the following /home/sub1 root.sub1 rwx r-x r-x /home/sub2 root.sub2 rwx r-x r-x /home/sub3 root.sub3 rwx r-x r-x /home/shared root.shared rwx r-x --- /home/shared/files root.shared-admin rwx rwx r-x s1user1 sub1, shared, shared-admin (can rw shared/files) s1user2 sub1, shared (can r shared/files) s1user3 sub1 (has no idea it exists) s2user1 sub2, shared, shared-admin (can rw shared/files) s2user2 sub2, shared (can r shared/files) s2user3 sub2, (has no idea it exists) s3user1 sub3, shared, shared-admin (can rw shared/files) s3user2 sub3, shared (can r shared/files) s3user3 sub3, (has no idea it exists) This allows for an additional class of user (s2user3) but creates what I cannot help view as an unnecessary additional level of file hierarchy. The /home/shared directory. It would contain nothing but the directory /home/share/files. It is a setup, however, that is in the long run more flexible. It also doesn't require the 2.2.6 behavior of login, which, from what I have now read, is preferable because the 2.2.6 behavior causes more headaches for more people than the new behavior will cause for me. If there is no middle ground in which login can access /home/sub/user via group permissions on /home/sub, while not causing problems for NFS users, then I gladly withdraw the complaint. The good of the many outweigh the need of the one. :) Also, is there no other way in which one group of users can have rwx access to a directory, a second group can have r-x access, and a third group can have --- (no) access? Even ignoring the preference for group three to not be aware of the directory?

Well, it's probably not all those editors, since that is/was a problem with the release of Pine 4.01 (which includes Pico). It was fixed in Pine 4.02, which is in the ports and packages collections. Just rebuild or reinstall and all should be fine. -Dave To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Aug 8 13:45:09 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA22536 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 8 Aug 1998 13:45:09 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from DVR.COM (babs.dvr.com [206.26.71.129]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA22528 for ; Sat, 8 Aug 1998 13:45:06 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from cook@dvr.com) Received: from LOCALNAME (cr211.dvr.com [206.26.64.190]) by DVR.COM (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id PAA31151 for ; Sat, 8 Aug 1998 15:46:00 -0500 Message-ID: <35CCD4F3.32CB@dvr.com> Date: Sat, 08 Aug 1998 15:45:07 -0700 From: Jeff Cook Organization: CookStock X-Mailer: Mozilla 2.02E-KIT (Win16; U) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Free BSD X-URL: http://www.freebsd.org/support.html Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm looking for a BSD verion that will run with only 2 M of RAM... the one on the main page takes 5 to run, and 4 to use...

The fault was a read fault to the address in the instruction pointer. gdk -k was able to trace back only a few stack frames, through the call stack for the system traps generated by the page fault but no further. I concluded that something was munging the stack, corrupting a return address. (Note that the faulty address was always the same.) Removing the Adaptec 1520 dramatically reduced the frequency of the panics, but did not eliminate them.] I reinstalled the Adaptec 1520 and retrograded back to 2.2.5 a week ago, and have been running around the clock since then with no panics. The machine is up and in production now, filling in for a terribly slow Sparcstation I was previously sharing. If someone would be interested in looking at a crash dump, I can try to tempoarily re-install a 2.2.6 kernel. I need a good excuse to do a large backup anyway. :) But I don't really have the expertise to dig into it myself, nor can I afford to let the machine crash several times daily while I'm trying to solve the problem.

I am about to setup my own FTP server with only freeBSD related items in it, and i was curious as to if I would need prior permission from you guys to do so. Anyway, I have about 8.8 gigs which i am dedicating to the FTP server and i am about to purchase a perminant 56k connection from my ISP. And with your permission i would like to make it a rather good FTP server with a large selection of items to download. If you see it fit to give me permission to make such a dedicated freeBSD FTP server i will do so and try to make it the best. But if you choose not to allow me to make such a site then i will understand and obey also. Thanks.

It all depends on what Crosstalk is. I assume it's not an IP protocol, in which case the answer is "yes, but you're going to have to write a passthrough program yourself".

You should enter a pr about this one. People on -questions are good for things which can be answered quickly, but you'll get this kind of problem solved better by entering a PR. You'll also need a kernel with debugging symbols. I seem to recall you have one of those. And you can probably just change the kernel, not the whole system, and run the 2.2.7 kernel with 2.2.5 userland (though this is normally a Bad Idea). If you want to respond to me privately, and you can give me access to the machine, I'll take a look at what you've got.

I am trying to convince them that this would be a mistake. This situation is complicated by the fact that the Network Administrator does not know anything about Unix and has shown an unwillingness to learn. Over the last 4 months, the AIX machine that the previous Network Administrator setup has been running happily without any intervention, while the NT servers have crashed at least twice a month. I personally have six FreeBSD machines (workstation usage) that have been running without any problems; but this does not seem to be enough evidence. I, along with a couple of other people are trying to present evidence to keep Unix systems running at our site. I searched the FreeBSD archives and found the reference to the article by John Kirsch about Unix vs. NT and have submitted that to management. I am curious if anybody else has had to go through this type of nonsense and could provide any pointers. I am particularly interested in Unix vs. NT for mail service. All pointers and moral support are greatly appreciated.

I've been using CTM to stay current with the ports. I'd saved some up, so tried running them today, and tanked on ports-cur.2363.gz with the following error: # ctm -c .deltas/ports-cur.2363.gz FN: www/apache13/Makefile md5 mismatch. FN: www/apache13/Makefile edit fails. Exit(104) # _ Ooooookay. So I decided I'd get another copy from ftp.freebsd.org, and if all else failed, I'd go back to the nearest xEmpty one and update everything from that. Unfortunately, the files in /.25/FreeBSD/CTM/ports-cur only goes up to ports-cur.2299.gz.

Sure, that makes sense. The Internet runs on UNIX. Why use it to connect? My sumpathies. > I am trying to convince them that this would be a mistake.

I've been collecting some URLs. You might like to check out these (I've left out the Kirch article) http://gpg.com/cnme/0496/file91.html http://www.ncworldmag.com/ncw-04-1998/ncw-04-nextten.html?jw (this is the first of three or four articles on the subject; follow up via the links) http://www.bsdi.com/info/ntvsunix (from BSDI, who of course have their axe to grind. But they have some good links on this page). http://www.fourmilab.ch/documents/msapogee.html (a bit old now, and possibly not so relevant) http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/980730/crl_networ_1.html (read how wcarchive.cdrom.com, running FreeBSD, outperformed 40 Microsoft machines running NT). This is still my favourite.
