Long: ----- I have configured a compose key (aka "Multi_key") here: $ setxkbmap -layout us -option compose:ralt When I start an xterm with an ISO8859-1 locale $ LC_CTYPE=en_US.ISO8859-1 xterm & I can use the compose key to enter the expected set of characters with diacritics. (a e i o u with acute accent, grave accent, etc.) So far, so good. When I start an xterm with an ISO8859-2 locale $ LC_CTYPE=pl_PL.ISO8859-2 xterm & xterm will accept compose sequences for 8859-2 characters such as r with acute, l with stoke, etc., but display a different character as if 8859-2 codes are mistaken for 8859-1. Hmm. Buuut... I see in the man page that I need to tell xterm to use the locale settings: $ LC_CTYPE=pl_PL.ISO8859-2 xterm -lc & This works as expected, I can enter 8859-2 characters with compose sequences. (And I can set the XTerm*locale resource to make this the default behavior.) Now, when I start an xterm with a UTF-8 locale $ LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 xterm -lc & xterm fails to accept compose sequences for common characters from 8859-1/2. At first I thought none would work at all, but some experimenting revealed a very few, such as --- for some sort of dash and L- for a pound sign. No common letters with diacritics, though. The language part of the locale setting doesn't matter; en_US, de_DE, pl_PL, no difference. This is disappointing. You would expect a superset of the common 8859-x characters to be available with UTF-8. Can anybody shed some light on what's going on there? -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.inka.de From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Mar 14 00:19:12 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 10B771065674 for ; Sun, 14 Mar 2010 00:19:12 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from roberthuff@rcn.com) Received: from smtp02.lnh.mail.rcn.net (smtp02.lnh.mail.rcn.net [207.172.157.102]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B8DF78FC12 for ; Sun, 14 Mar 2010 00:19:11 +0000 (UTC) Received: from mr02.lnh.mail.rcn.net ([207.172.157.22]) by smtp02.lnh.mail.rcn.net with ESMTP; 13 Mar 2010 19:19:10 -0500 Received: from smtp01.lnh.mail.rcn.net (smtp01.lnh.mail.rcn.net [207.172.4.11]) by mr02.lnh.mail.rcn.net (MOS 3.10.8-GA) with ESMTP id QOO35944; Sat, 13 Mar 2010 19:19:10 -0500 (EST) Received: from 209-6-91-204.c3-0.smr-ubr1.sbo-smr.ma.cable.rcn.com (HELO jerusalem.litteratus.org.litteratus.org) ([209.6.91.204]) by smtp01.lnh.mail.rcn.net with ESMTP; 13 Mar 2010 19:19:11 -0500 From: Robert Huff MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-ID: <19356.11133.962541.787089@jerusalem.litteratus.org> Date: Sat, 13 Mar 2010 19:19:09 -0500 To: Richard Tobin In-Reply-To: <20100313225059.158207FE98D@macpro.inf.ed.ac.uk> References: <20100313225059.158207FE98D@macpro.inf.ed.ac.uk> X-Mailer: VM 7.17 under 21.5 (beta28) "fuki" XEmacs Lucid X-Junkmail-Whitelist: YES (by domain whitelist at mr02.lnh.mail.rcn.net) Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: FreeBSD on Panasonic TV X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 14 Mar 2010 00:19:12 -0000 Richard Tobin writes: > I was interested to see that my Panasonic television displays a > FreeBSD copyright notice.

It doesn't do anything to update the source files; if you choose to rebuild from source, use cvsup/csup/svn; you will normally get a -STABLE system from the build cycle, and not a -RELEASE system, but that depends upon which branch you are tracking.

I guess I was lead to believe that it updated the source from this entry in the handbook: "The default is to update the source code, the entire base system, and the kernel." http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/updating-upgrading-freebsdupdate.html I've also seem other references indicate that the source downloaded by freebsd-update could be patched and installed.

If you list src component, evidently freebsd-update claims to update /usr/src. I suspect that if you've updated src via one of the other methods, it won't figure out how to update everything correctly. -- -Chuck From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Mar 14 08:05:58 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id ACF121065672 for ; Sun, 14 Mar 2010 08:05:58 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from antoniok.spb@gmail.com) Received: from mail-fx0-f209.google.com (mail-fx0-f209.google.com [209.85.220.209]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4366C8FC22 for ; Sun, 14 Mar 2010 08:05:58 +0000 (UTC) Received: by fxm1 with SMTP id 1so1787208fxm.13 for ; Sun, 14 Mar 2010 00:05:57 -0800 (PST) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:mime-version:received:from:date:message-id :subject:to:content-type; bh=XNzHzOArwa69mh6SZyf8pqEeVqKyeCqQ5va79qVAjFM=; b=CoJuDsV6nBVf57uRsZHgprH0rSK4WJBeIYZJnrG33rrq4QL3jJuV6yWVoNXg6uLJ+5 aBEyf4HbA6G8OdxgKkHfHf9r1nTTMnBdZFnskfelJTFzuvvVJEwGbfdVHpATzuWk+Ogx 7Vkf3/LNtMSXy4243FG5Uv7/Ip7q7ONqjBOoM= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=mime-version:from:date:message-id:subject:to:content-type; b=MQsemtTca5PpLXCPQeqMtYaXoixYhMDA7eA0m6z4AdoyO1iN52vHrsPjjf8zAwnSJN 5RC0x6+8qsU55v0vZlT+f493eicT95l9FKsuqenDzTaSl78Vqq+wvmnnxDszxPQjOSs5 nH361aRo5yEKqtx+ARSctqQOOX/GofnlSEbUo= MIME-Version: 1.0 Received: by 10.239.171.135 with SMTP id w7mr735543hbe.56.1268553957158; Sun, 14 Mar 2010 00:05:57 -0800 (PST) From: =?UTF-8?B?0JDQvdGC0L7QvSDQmtC70LXRgdGB?= Date: Sun, 14 Mar 2010 11:05:37 +0300 Message-ID: <3f1c29e71003140005u3d8dd7c8o474fd13b9cb1042b@mail.gmail.com> To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.5 Subject: Using multiply kernels with reserved GENERIC X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 14 Mar 2010 08:05:58 -0000 I compile my own kernel: # make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERN && make installkernel KERNCONF=MYKERN After this, the new kernel is into /boot/kernel , and old one is into /boot/kernel.old After first kernel rebuilding, kernel.old is GENERIC.

Invalid argument. Camiocommand ioctl=20 > failed, can not open scsi driver You need SCSI emulation for your burner in your kernel. Specifically, you n= eed to recompile your kernel with the following devices in its configuration fi= le: device atapicam # emulate ATAPI devices as SCSI ditto v= ia CAM # needs CAM to be present (scbus & pass) # SCSI peripherals device scbus # SCSI bus (required for SCSI) device da # Direct Access (disks) device cd # CD device pass # Passthrough device (direct SCSI acces= s) See the manual pages atapicam(4), scbus(4), cd(4) and pass(4). It could be that these devices are also available as modules, but I've alwa= ys build a custom kernel, so I don't know about that. The manual pages don't s= ay that they are available as modules, so I'm inclined to say they are not. After rebuilding the kernel, which you'll find documented in Chapter 8 of t= he Handbook, you also need to give your user-id write access to the right devices. I have done that by creating a group "cdrom", to which I've added = my user-id (with 'pw groupmod -m'). Then I've put the following lines in my /etc/devfs.conf: # Give members of group cdrom access to the CD/DVD-ROM and DVD+RW via t= he # SCSI interface own xpt0 root:cdrom perm xpt0 0660 own cd0 root:cdrom perm cd0 0660 own cd1 root:cdrom perm cd1 0660 link cd1 cdrom link cd1 dvd Since I've got both a burner and a regular DVD player in my machine, you see two cd devices but only one xpt device. Additionally, the following has been added to my standard ruleset in /etc/d= evfs.rules: [slackbox=3D10] add path 'pass*' mode 0660 group cdrom And in /etc/rc.conf the following is added; devfs_system_ruleset=3D"slackbox" I've put the pass device in devfs.rules because it will attach to every SCSI device that attaches to the system, _even if they are added after booting_ like e.g. USB disks used with the da(4) driver. Hope this helps.

If you don't want to compile it into your kernel, load it manually: # kldload atapicam You can automate it using the appropriate line in /boot/loader.conf, I think it's atapicam_load="YES" Then you get something like this: % camcontrol devlist at scbus0 target 6 lun 0 (pass0) at scbus2 target 0 lun 0 (cd0,pass1) The scanner is a real SCSI scanner, the DVD recorder is an ATAPI drive. You see it's device number is 2,0,0, and the device node is /dev/cd0. You need access to /dev/pass1, too. (If the scanner wouldn't be present, it would be /dev/pass0.) If you want to burn a data CD, use something like this: % cdrecord dev=2,0,0 speed=16 -v -eject -tao -data For a music CD: % cdrecord dev=2,0,0 speed=16 -v -eject -dao -audio ... If you want to combine the mkisofs step with the burning step (instead of first creating the ISO, then burnin it), you can do something like this: % mkisofs -r | cdrecord dev=2,0,0 speed=16 -v -eject -tao -data - It works similar with DVDs, just you use growisofs from the port dvd+rw-tools here: % growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd=$1 The /dev/dvd is a symling that points to /dev/cd0 - again, the ATAPICAM cd driver is used instead of ATAPI's acd. To make this symlink, I have link acd0 cdrom link cd0 dvd in /etc/devfs.conf. This makes refering to the example in "man growisofs" more easy. :-) If you don't have this symlink, you must use /dev/cd0 (or the correct device name for the "SCSI" drive) in the command. You can check this with "camcontrol devlist" where both numerical and device node are displayed. Additionally, you can do the same with growisofs as I have shown you with cdrecord - combine the building of the ISO with the burning: % growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd -r This should give you a good summary of how to use these tools. You already have gotten useful advices on how to set the correct device permissions - this is important. Additionally, see "man cdrecord" on how to construct a simple config file so you don't have to put speed= and dev= whenever you want to use the program - it makes things more comfortable. :-) -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...

I'm guessing I screwed up tunefs -L, but it sure looked straightforward. Anyway, my /dev/ufs is empty, and I kind of thought there should be stuff in it. I called tunefs -L from single-user mode, so usr, var, and tmp should have been unmounted as per instructions. If I start playing with the "geomerty", am I going to wipe my system inadvertently? Also, I kind of think the ufsid is really what I'm looking for, and /dev/ufsid is empty too! Isn't this the class of things that should "just work"? I mean, the disk is pretty fundamental. I swap disks in and out alot, and I've got one of those motherboards that likes to reorder them, making booting reliably under 8-RELEASE a real pain in the neck...

WHile I haven't had a chance to check out the price/performance ration and compare it to other sites [[or maybe I'll do yet another roll-my-own]], I did happen on the PCBSD link. It really does look like FreeBSD people who do *not* wish to invest 101% of their lives getting thing-to-work on the most stable OS ever. My one question is: does at least everything that works under Ubuntu work under PC BSD? I mean, things like setting my text fonts to international? and being able to stream what streams {say, "FRONTLINE" or NOVA} that PBS has. Can i drop in a CD or DVD that I got from my pvblic library and have it play without mucking around creating mount-points like /media/dvd/0 and /media/cd/0? This is the latest thing to break with my 7.3RC.2. The sound-juicer doesn't recognize my music CD whereas my Ubuntu does. In other words, is PCBSD closer to the "Just-Works"{TM} side of things? tia, y'all! gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix http://jottings.thought.org http://transfinite.thought.org The 7.79a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org/index.php From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Mar 14 19:03:32 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D1A4D106564A for ; Sun, 14 Mar 2010 19:03:32 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from me@johnea.net) Received: from mail.johnea.net (johnea.net [70.167.123.7]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B76968FC08 for ; Sun, 14 Mar 2010 19:03:32 +0000 (UTC) Received: from [192.168.100.239] (vhost.johnea.net [192.168.100.239]) (using TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-CAMELLIA256-SHA (256/256 bits)) (No client certificate requested) by mail.johnea.net (Postfix) with ESMTPSA id 9664C73F184F for ; Sun, 14 Mar 2010 11:40:06 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <4B9D3363.2050707@johnea.net> Date: Sun, 14 Mar 2010 12:04:43 -0700 From: johnea User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.7) Gecko/20100120 Shredder/3.0.1 MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org References: <491164.77435.qm@web24805.mail.ird.yahoo.com> In-Reply-To: <491164.77435.qm@web24805.mail.ird.yahoo.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Subject: Re: Re : building from source after freebsd-update X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 14 Mar 2010 19:03:32 -0000 On 2010-03-14 05:39, Alexandre L. wrote: > Please read the handbook section related to the FreeBSD update tool > http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/updating-upgrading-freebsdupdate.html > > freebsd-update is a binary update tool, so you haven't got anything to rebuild, except your custom kernel (if you are using one). That handbook section is where I read: "The default is to update the source code, the entire base system, and the kernel." And in fact much of the /usr/src/ does contain source code. /usr/src/sys/ subdirectories seem populated, and some directories under /usr/src/usr.bin/ and /usr/src/usr.sbin/ contain source, while others only contain the Makefile. /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail/ contains only the Makefile. Which lead to the make depend error I experienced. It seems like I could build the kernel, and parts of the non-kernel base, but not other parts. After RTFMing, scroogling for days, and going through UPDATINGs and READMEs I'm still not clear on how to mix freebsd-update and building all or parts of the base source. I'm interested in being able to build system apps in the base, custom kernel modules, and eventually the entire kernel. freebsd-update is _extremely_ painless for tracking the security patches. It would be nice to be able to mix this with a certain amount of building source. Any insight is greatly appreciated... johnea From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Mar 14 19:36:51 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B0CCF106564A for ; Sun, 14 Mar 2010 19:36:51 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from support@myswom.com) Received: from mail.swom.com (mail.swom.com [78.46.57.253]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3AD448FC1F for ; Sun, 14 Mar 2010 19:36:51 +0000 (UTC) Received: from myswom.com (app2.swom.com [78.46.57.251]) (Authenticated sender: support@myswom.com) by mail.swom.com (Postfix) with ESMTPSA id 5FE7F21E8B7 for ; Sun, 14 Mar 2010 19:21:25 +0000 (GMT) Date: Sun, 14 Mar 2010 19:21:25 +0000 From: N'guessan Koffi Ezai To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Message-Id: <4b9d373558f85_f883fb3cb08a1b0644563d@app2.swom.com.tmail> Mime-Version: 1.0 X-Swom-Uuid: 49d0c3ee73b9f11fc5eb0523f7666938cb72b61c Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: Quoted-printable Content-Disposition: inline X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.5 Subject: I'd like you to join me on Swom...

If your patches are accepted, you have become a contributor. If you continue to provide high quality patches that lead to an improvement in FreeBSD's overall quality, you will one day be given commit rights. It's as easy as that. Note that your patches could be for utility or kernel code, or for documentation. The important thing is that they improve the quality of the system. > Please, guide me with any thing you think better for me(books,web links,any > thing). I've average knowledge of UNIX. And, right now; I am studying > FreeBSD on Vmware Workstation. Use the source. It is freely available and is in any case what you will be working with if you intend to provide patches. There are various mailing lists that may prove useful (check out the available lists on the FreeBSD web site (http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/eresources.html#ERESOURCES-MAIL) Good luck!

There are forums and an active community for PCBSD. Those places are going to provide you a lot more feedback on questions like this. I don't _use_ PCBSD ... I have _tried_ it, and my experience has been very good. On an IBM laptop, everything just worked out of the box, and worked well.

Make installworld failed complaining that cc1 was not executable. After a lot of tests, I came to the conclusion that the new 7.3 kernel had some sort of problem with my gvinum partitions, since executables were mysteriously becoming corrupt and the miraculously fixed after reboot. So I reverted to the old kernel and the system booted without any problems. I reverted with csup to 6.2 STABLE sources, but now I realize that some binaries of the base system were modified by the failed installworld. For example, it seems that libc.a is not compatible with the compiler as I now get: /usr/lib/libc.a: could not read symbols: Malformed archive Now, the question I have is: is there any way to revert all system binaries to 6.2 STABLE without a previous backup? Can a utility like freebsd-update help me restore these binaries?

Can a utility like > freebsd-update help me restore these binaries? Yes. In essence what you need to do is obtain the 6.2 sources and run through a standard buildworld type update. In principle, you could use freebsd-update similarly, but 6.2 is out of support and not available that way. 6.4 is still under support, and the 6.2 -> 6.4 upgrade should be a lot less risky than 6.2 -> 7.3 if you're still eager t try freebsd-update. It is possible that you will have files installed by 7.3 still on your hard drive. Ones that don't exist in 6.X and so don't get overwritten by reinstalling 6.X. As the prime candidates for that sort of thing are the updated shlibs from 7.3, you need to check into that, and remove anything that shouldn't be there. Otherwise you can run into trouble if you update any ported software -- programs crashing because they try and dynamically link against two different versions of the same shlib. It's the same problem you can encounter after a major version upgrade (and the reason for the recommended practice of reinstalling all ported software), just in reverse. I don't recall any warnings of possible problems with gvinum compatibility between versions 6, 7 or 8. However, that does not in any way mean there weren't any, and you should check the release notes for the various releases since 6.2 carefully. It may be a worst case scenario of backing the system up, and then reinstalling from scratch -- in which case, a good strategy would be to have a RAID1 mirror (ie. gmirror(8)) for the OS and separate data partitions using whatever RAID level you had implemented using gvinum. Or else go the whole hog and build the system using ZFS. Either of those should give you good future proofing against this sort of thing happening to you again.

First of all i would like to apologize to anyone who finds my appeal a lazy man's choice, actually it's indeed lazy but it's the best way to get an answer from a valid source. My problem is a potential DOS/DDOS... i know a forever talked about issue... i've already searched the freebsd's mailing lists and found some mitigation techniques, to bad that google ain't that familiar with FreeBSD, and searchin' for guides is a pain... I recall finding a mitigation technique that involved bandwidth shaping and other ... I'm using a FreeBSD 7.2-p7 with ipfw and upon testing the rules in those guides it alerted me that bandwidth modules weren't included in the bsd's kernel...

(basically anything regarded > to floods) As you probably guess, a) this is a complex problem because one man's DOS is another's regular traffic - it's complex even to detect something like that, and b) most of the general solutions are not platform-specific but can apply to any operating system, so you can learn it from many sources. First, you need to define what your outgoing network connection is (e.g. "10 mbit/s") and then see what kinds of tradeoffs you are prepared to make to protect yourself. The general advice is: - read ipfw(5), especially sections on dummynet and the "limit" rule - study software like http://codee.pl/cband.html From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Mar 15 23:30:09 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 49E6F106564A for ; Mon, 15 Mar 2010 23:30:09 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from mailnull@mips.inka.de) Received: from mail-in-11.arcor-online.net (mail-in-11.arcor-online.net [151.189.21.51]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7949C8FC12 for ; Mon, 15 Mar 2010 23:30:07 +0000 (UTC) Received: from mail-in-20-z2.arcor-online.net (mail-in-20-z2.arcor-online.net [151.189.8.85]) by mx.arcor.de (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2AD03E39D7 for ; Tue, 16 Mar 2010 00:30:06 +0100 (CET) Received: from mail-in-07.arcor-online.net (mail-in-07.arcor-online.net [151.189.21.47]) by mail-in-20-z2.arcor-online.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1D9151080AD for ; Tue, 16 Mar 2010 00:30:06 +0100 (CET) Received: from lorvorc.mips.inka.de (dslb-094-217-111-222.pools.arcor-ip.net [94.217.111.222]) by mail-in-07.arcor-online.net (Postfix) with ESMTPS id DC1593CA47A for ; Tue, 16 Mar 2010 00:30:05 +0100 (CET) X-DKIM: Sendmail DKIM Filter v2.8.2 mail-in-07.arcor-online.net DC1593CA47A Received: from lorvorc.mips.inka.de (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by lorvorc.mips.inka.de (8.14.4/8.14.3) with ESMTP id o2FNU534029034 for ; Tue, 16 Mar 2010 00:30:05 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from mailnull@lorvorc.mips.inka.de) Received: (from mailnull@localhost) by lorvorc.mips.inka.de (8.14.4/8.14.4/Submit) id o2FNU5qY029033 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Tue, 16 Mar 2010 00:30:05 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from mailnull) From: naddy@mips.inka.de (Christian Weisgerber) Date: Mon, 15 Mar 2010 23:30:05 +0000 (UTC) Message-ID: References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-15 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Originator: naddy@mips.inka.de (Christian Weisgerber) To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Compose key and xterm vs. UTF-8 X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 15 Mar 2010 23:30:09 -0000 Christian Weisgerber wrote: > Short: > ------ > Why do compose key sequences fail to work in a UTF-8 xterm? And the short answer is: They work--if you know the right sequences. The compose key handling presumably comes out of some X11 library; xterm is just the recipient. The actual compose table used depends on the locale encoding. There is an index at $PREFIX/lib/X11/locale/compose.dir and you can find the tables in $PREFIX/lib/X11/locale/*/Compose. It turns out that the UTF-8 table is _quite_ extensive (6676 lines) and all the common characters I was looking for are in fact there. So why didn't I find them? Order matters. The ISO8859-* compose tables list two-character sequences in both orders. The UTF-8 table allows only one order. For the last twenty years I've been used to entering, say, to input an 'a' with an acute accent, but the UTF-8 compose table only accepts . Oh well. On a side note: GTK+2 comes with its own compose tables and the sequences I'm used to work fine in GTK applications like Firefox. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.inka.de From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Mar 15 23:40:28 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E421C1065672; Mon, 15 Mar 2010 23:40:27 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from dan.naumov@gmail.com) Received: from mail-bw0-f228.google.com (mail-bw0-f228.google.com [209.85.218.228]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5254B8FC15; Mon, 15 Mar 2010 23:40:26 +0000 (UTC) Received: by bwz28 with SMTP id 28so3492174bwz.14 for ; Mon, 15 Mar 2010 16:40:26 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:mime-version:received:date:message-id:subject :from:to:content-type; bh=kTezEwnvGUoxTWT6csQjE9+sfxcsj4bUFE4BKr/SOJA=; b=G9qUDKl+RNf6gE12OzMuHmrrp5q2mzDj9bg6RiFJTOSMsIqO6FJUzj+g2dHNN7OdLH 4AABzaZao7VtAHG8IQuo8UMbdv7P/Os0YtnMK3dcW7SjmXKW3cmdFfM+5I1HzrsrxV8n 5iVouwAfYLciOkbqzOSeowfD2HRk1cuPJMlG8= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=mime-version:date:message-id:subject:from:to:content-type; b=VXeFv0eZhdwFfc8AFtUi6yDzWUNqMnrMVC7Wiag/SSwRXc6AcTaE1/1XaRa3+d7D00 YCHgCf9qkQ/NYjHwzkeDc0kW6pq8dGWa12CKMBCHI3rNrGIMmneJ1LcOChYuRg979bsw TdDEiXsccs+lQUDRg8wFajMSsUCcx2WxMOeRs= MIME-Version: 1.0 Received: by 10.204.141.9 with SMTP id k9mr747685bku.73.1268696425833; Mon, 15 Mar 2010 16:40:25 -0700 (PDT) Date: Tue, 16 Mar 2010 01:40:25 +0200 Message-ID: From: Dan Naumov To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org, freebsd-fs@freebsd.org Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Cc: Subject: Some questions about vfs.zfs.prefetch_disable=1 and ZFS filesystem versions X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 15 Mar 2010 23:40:28 -0000 After looking at the arc_summary.pl script (found at http://jhell.googlecode.com/files/arc_summary.pl), I have realized that my system has set vfs.zfs.prefetch_disable=1 by default, looking at dmesg, I see: ========================= ZFS NOTICE: Prefetch is disabled by default if less than 4GB of RAM is present; to enable, add "vfs.zfs.prefetch_disable=0" to /boot/loader.conf. ========================= ...except I do have 4gb of RAM.

You probably need to set early_late_divider. rc reads in and orders the scripts in /etc/rc.d before it executes any of them, and this list is fixed. When it reaches $early_late_divider, it creates a new list that includes the local directory obviously /usr/local/etc must be mounted at this point. Bear in mind that a local script that's ordered before early_late_divider is ignored.

Aside from having to configure it, the downside of this approach is that it involves dropping some traffic and waiting for the retransmit, so it will be less efficient than a bandwidth limit in the application itself. TCP's dynamic window resizing (especially with Selective ACKnowledgements) should keep the firewall from having to drop too many packets, but changing conditions on the network can keep that from working as well as you'd like. If using this technique, make sure the other side supports SACK, preferably for multiple segments. -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area http://be-well.ilk.org/~lowell/ From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Mar 16 15:11:59 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 893D31065670 for ; Tue, 16 Mar 2010 15:11:59 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from pit@joseph-a-nagy-jr.us) Received: from outbound-mail-313.bluehost.com (outbound-mail-313.bluehost.com [67.222.54.6]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 53DD18FC1A for ; Tue, 16 Mar 2010 15:11:59 +0000 (UTC) Received: (qmail 10614 invoked by uid 0); 16 Mar 2010 15:11:58 -0000 Received: from unknown (HELO box264.bluehost.com) (69.89.31.64) by cpoproxy3.bluehost.com with SMTP; 16 Mar 2010 15:11:58 -0000 DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; q=dns; c=nofws; s=default; d=joseph-a-nagy-jr.us; h=Received:Message-ID:Date:From:User-Agent:MIME-Version:To:Subject:X-Enigmail-Version:Content-Type:X-Identified-User; b=XPHc9L7USN4UgyS0LZRKG7CmW0sXGPu7chDIgm6XYBmjE19lft49zs8D4J8pWkFQuJ8Ck2G+09O9VjoXbzQ/eqYy/Ub4Z4lzVvksAnW9RmfqFzU4k+n3RGBfg7c+QT1Z; Received: from [206.74.86.236] (helo=[192.168.1.102]) by box264.bluehost.com with esmtpsa (TLSv1:AES256-SHA:256) (Exim 4.69) (envelope-from ) id 1NrYR4-0002Vi-B4 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Tue, 16 Mar 2010 09:11:58 -0600 Message-ID: <4B9F9FB6.3030100@joseph-a-nagy-jr.us> Date: Tue, 16 Mar 2010 10:11:50 -0500 From: Programmer In Training User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; FreeBSD i386; en-US; rv:1.9.1.7) Gecko/20100203 Thunderbird/3.0.1 MIME-Version: 1.0 To: FreeBSD Questions X-Enigmail-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha1; protocol="application/pgp-signature"; boundary="------------enig63C9016F57394D783B168713" X-Identified-User: {2250:box264.bluehost.com:ameliora:joseph-a-nagy-jr.us} {sentby:smtp auth 206.74.86.236 authed with pit@joseph-a-nagy-jr.us} Subject: More ZIP Problems X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 16 Mar 2010 15:11:59 -0000 This is an OpenPGP/MIME signed message (RFC 2440 and 3156) --------------enig63C9016F57394D783B168713 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable OK, so I got the disk mounted as it was.

When t= he time zone is changed the FreeBSD system immediately recognizes the chang= e (that is, the date command from the command line shows the correct time a= nd time zone). However, our running C apps do not recognize that a time zon= e change has occurred unless they are restarted. What's the proper way to i= nform an active process that a time zone change has occurred? I've tried tz= set() and tzsetwall() but neither seem to do the trick. The only thing I've= found that works is to restart the process, and that's not really a soluti= on.

I'm sorry if this sounds too stupid or basic. I moved from 4.3 to latest version and it is working fine. On $.x I used to have inedt active since services are basic. On new system inedt did not active service immediately (not here at least) so I enable the service like "ftpd" on rc.conf POP3. I remember I read in the list that inetd is not so secure (am I wrong?) and that if possible should not be used but since I need services up I used that way. Now before studying what's the best way to do things I need to have a pop3 deamon running. I installed from ports popper but and qpopper but it does not work. What's the daemon for popper ? It will worlk if I enable it in rc.conf.? Inetdd. I want to learn all teh new features (left the path more than a year) so I do not want that you solve my problem, but if you can point me to where and what study to learn the changes done and the best way to have secure and working systems I would apreciate it. I am reading Handbook now. On Handbook. Is a PDF copy available?. Believe it or not sometime I can find access to the internet and I would like to be stuyding on those times also. Thanks in advance.

I have built a fairly decent Bourne shell script to run just after installing mfsbsd on a target system. It figures out the likely boot drive, formats it and then begins to build a FreeBSD system on it. The script could intelligently ask for the 64-bit or 32-bit trees if it could determine whether it was running on the i86 or 64-bit system. Thank you.

I reconfigured my supfile and got the sources for 6.2 STABLE with csup, the same one I started off with. Nevertheless, I was assuming that some files from 7.3 were copied by the failed installworld (confirmed by your response). I tested this theory by rebuilding and installing libc manually, and afterwards the build process advanced a bit further, and got stuck in libstdc++, So I got a bit bolder and studied the main makefile and discovered the 'libraries' target. After building, I was able to buildworld, buildkernel, installkernel, merge, etc. Now my system seems to be back in 6.2, but now it's RELEASE-p12 and seems to be working flawlessly. > It is possible that you will have files installed by 7.3 still on your > hard drive.

This is, configured a supfile with 6_2 and used csup to download the closest sources to my original version. 2) tried to make buildworld and failed due to installed based libs from the failed installworld of 7.3 3) make libraries 4) make buildworld 5) make buildkernel, installkernel, reboot, etc. and the rest of the process described in: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html This makes me conclude that buildworld will effectively use the libs in /usr/src/obj instead of the systems libs, which is awesome, because it's just what I needed to complete buildworld in the first place. It's very clever and of course, this makes sense because it's the same logic that is used to build the new kernel! -duh! The magic here was the 'libraries' target. Anyway, FreeBSD really kicks every single *NIXs ass that I've used in the past. This clean separation of system and ports is honestly amazing. I'm a noob in FreeBSD but getting to really love it! > I don't recall any warnings of possible problems with gvinum > compatibility between versions 6, 7 or 8.

It may be a worst case > scenario of backing the system up, and then reinstalling from scratch -- What I conclude at this point is that the library mixup after the failed installworld may have contributed to the gvinum problem with the 7.3 kernel running perhaps with some 6.2/7.3 mixup. The problem was obviously gone after I sprinkled the libraries magic, since I was able to compile and install everything back to 6.2 without any hiccups. I think I was lucky that the old 6.2 kernel booted and mounted my gvinum devices without the crazy stuff that was happening with the 7.3 kernel. > in which case, a good strategy would be to have a RAID1 mirror (ie. > gmirror(8)) for the OS and separate data partitions using whatever RAID > level you had implemented using gvinum.

I think my main mistake was to jump from such an old version to the latest 7 release.

Again, the POP3 service is not FreeBSD specific and there are thousands of sources, especially those of the opriginal projects ported to FreeBSD.

You shouldn't need to upgrade to every different version in turn -- in fact, I'd have been fairly confident you could have gone direct from 6.2 to 7.3 or 8.0 in one step, if not for the gvinum problem you ran into. Are you using a custom kernel? If you're using GENERIC or something close to it, and just kldloading the modules you need for gvinum support a good thing to try out would be booting from the install media for various FreeBSD versions and testing gvinum compatibility. Try burning some of the disc1 or dvd .iso images (or the 8.0 USB key image) for various different releases, booting from them into fixit mode (or whatever it's called: there's a complete system image on those disks that can run stand-alone) and trying to get the system to recognise and mount your gvinum partitions without modifying them. If it doesn't work, then no harm done -- just pull the installation media and reboot. If it does work, then you can upgrade with a bit more confidence.

Embarrassment is an opinion that you either believe people hold against you, or you hold against others, in which you think they will think about you: 62 processes: 1 running, 61 sleeping CPU states: 5.5% user, 0.0% nice, 11.9% system, 0.6% interrupt, 82.0% idle Mem: 53M Active, 11M Inact, 20M Wired, 6556K Cache, 19M Buf, 448K Free I am not embarrassed.

I'm just > wondering if there are actually any advantages to doing it this way. There's only one important point that doesn't seem to be achievable using the means of /boot/loader.conf: It is the case if you have to make settings that are needed to be present at compile time. An example: device bktr options BROOKTREE_SYSTEM_DEFAULT=BROOKTREE_PAL options BKTR_USE_PLL options BKTR_GPIO_ACCESS options BKTR_USE_FREEBSD_SMBUS Allthough you can load bktr.ko, you can't specify those parameters. The same seems to be true for such settings: options SC_DFLT_FONT makeoptions SC_DFLT_FONT=iso options ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP makeoptions ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP=german.iso options UKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP makeoptions UKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP=german.iso Another scenario, well, it's more an attitude, is to taylor a kernel exactly to present hardware, letting it contain only those components that *need* to be present. This can be required when operating on low space. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...

However, when I passed the environment variable TZ=/etc/localtime to the program: > $ env TZ=/etc/localtime ./a.out > 06:11:30 MET > 06:11:31 MET > 06:11:32 MET > 06:11:33 MET > 01:11:34 EDT > 01:11:35 EDT > 01:11:36 EDT > ^C$ So there it is: set TZ=/etc/localtime and use tzsetwall() to update the time zone within the process. In my reading, the tzsetwall(3) documentation does seem to imply tzsetwall() would check /etc/localtime even if TZ isn't set, but apparently this isn't the case; maybe the man page could be clarified on this point?

On 8.0-STABLE if_lagg loads automatically and I think it always did load automatically, though I am not sure. What's the FreeBSD version you are working on?

Actually after more testing I found out that the line ifconfig_iwn0="ether 00:16:ea:61:01:e8" in my rc.conf is the culprit. If I comment it out the system will start but only with the wired interface working. I have if_lagg_load="YES" in /boot/loader.conf and the following in /etc/rc.conf wpa_supplicant_enable="YES" ifconfig_em0="up" # ifconfig_iwn0="ether 00:16:ea:61:01:e8" wlans_iwn0="wlan0" ifconfig_wlan0="WPA" cloned_interfaces="lagg0" ifconfig_lagg0="laggproto failover laggport em0 laggport wlan0 DHCP" /Leslie From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Wed Mar 17 09:46:22 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 814981065670 for ; Wed, 17 Mar 2010 09:46:22 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from joe@netmusician.org) Received: from mail.netmusician.org (dorian.netmusician.org [66.244.95.101]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 508728FC14 for ; Wed, 17 Mar 2010 09:46:22 +0000 (UTC) Received: from localhost (unknown [127.0.0.1]) by mail.netmusician.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 90D43B87D; Wed, 17 Mar 2010 05:46:21 -0400 (EDT) X-Virus-Scanned: amavisd-new at netmusician.org Received: from mail.netmusician.org ([127.0.0.1]) by localhost (dorian.netmusician.org [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-new, port 10026) with ESMTP id 9PKGamRNKR9I; Wed, 17 Mar 2010 05:46:21 -0400 (EDT) Received: from Shakti.local (c-67-176-145-181.hsd1.in.comcast.net [67.176.145.181]) (using TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-CAMELLIA256-SHA (256/256 bits)) (No client certificate requested) by mail.netmusician.org (Postfix) with ESMTPSA id 912B0B877; Wed, 17 Mar 2010 05:46:20 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <4BA0A4EB.5070004@netmusician.org> Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2010 05:46:19 -0400 From: Joe Auty User-Agent: Postbox 1.1.2 (Macintosh/20100308) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: RW References: <4B9EE11F.4090206@netmusician.org> <20100316125854.6ee3f397@gumby.homeunix.com> In-Reply-To: <20100316125854.6ee3f397@gumby.homeunix.com> X-Enigmail-Version: 0.96.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.5 Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: /etc/rc.conf and NFS X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2010 09:46:22 -0000 RW wrote: > On Mon, 15 Mar 2010 21:38:39 -0400 > Joe Auty wrote: > > >> Hello, >> >> I have my /usr/local partition hosted on an NFS share which is mounted >> at boot.

The env command doesn't save its changes, but that is correct behaviour. I haven't tested this with a 'real' environment variable yet because I decided to roll back the upgrade to wait for the issue to be solved.

Actually, I'm facing exactly the same problem now: I want to upgrade 6.2-RELEASE to something (8.0?) newer. Since I don't have spare machine for tests, I'm playing now with VirtualBox (hosted on Linux). I'd like to test upgrade using cvsup/buildworld. After I will success on virtualbox I'll perform the same path on real machine. -- Mikolaj Rydzewski From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Wed Mar 17 16:36:26 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 16549106566C for ; Wed, 17 Mar 2010 16:36:26 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from martin@dc.cis.okstate.edu) Received: from dc.cis.okstate.edu (dc.cis.okstate.edu [139.78.103.93]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C19348FC36 for ; Wed, 17 Mar 2010 16:36:25 +0000 (UTC) Received: from dc.cis.okstate.edu (localhost.cis.okstate.edu [127.0.0.1]) by dc.cis.okstate.edu (8.14.2/8.13.8) with ESMTP id o2HGaEwn029337 for ; Wed, 17 Mar 2010 11:36:14 -0500 (CDT) (envelope-from martin@dc.cis.okstate.edu) Message-Id: <201003171636.o2HGaEwn029337@dc.cis.okstate.edu> To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-ID: <29335.1268843774.1@dc.cis.okstate.edu> Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2010 11:36:14 -0500 From: Martin McCormick Subject: Re: Automatic Way to Tell if a FreeBSD system is 64 or 32-bit?

Thanks to all. One thing I discovered while trying this command out on various systems is that if the system was originally built using i386 code, it reports as i386 even though there is a 64-bit platform struggling to get out. In my script, this is not a problem because the mfsboot CDROM for 32-bit boxes chokes on a 64-bit platform and will not boot. When on a 64-bit system, it boots like gang busters and since it installs its own OS, there is no question at all. Thank you all.

That sounds correct to me. It's reporting the architecture of the OS, not of the CPU, and that's what you actually need to know. -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area http://be-well.ilk.org/~lowell/ From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Wed Mar 17 16:51:25 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id AED13106567D for ; Wed, 17 Mar 2010 16:51:25 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from prvs=685a5c2ca=pschmehl_lists@tx.rr.com) Received: from ip-002.utdallas.edu (ip-002.utdallas.edu [129.110.20.108]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 840428FC12 for ; Wed, 17 Mar 2010 16:51:25 +0000 (UTC) X-Group: None X-IronPort-Anti-Spam-Filtered: true X-IronPort-Anti-Spam-Result: ApsEAEueoEuBbgog/2dsb2JhbACbe7lbhHYEgxo X-IronPort-AV: E=Sophos;i="4.49,658,1262584800"; d="scan'208";a="27192114" Received: from zxtm01.utdallas.edu (HELO utd65257.utdallas.edu) ([129.110.10.32]) by ip-002.utdallas.edu with ESMTP/TLS/DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA; 17 Mar 2010 11:22:18 -0500 Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2010 11:22:17 -0500 From: Paul Schmehl To: FreeBSD Questions Message-ID: <10E075E52DED228526F5ECAB@utd65257.utdallas.edu> X-Mailer: Mulberry/4.0.8 (Linux/x86) X-Munged-Reply-To: Figure it out MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Subject: Irritating delay in mouse in kde4 X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list Reply-To: Paul Schmehl List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2010 16:51:25 -0000 I recently upgraded from FreeBSD 7.2 STABLE to 8.0 STABLE. I also upgraded from KDE3 to KDE4 and rebuilt all my ports. Everything seems to work fine except the mouse. There is an irritating delay that I can't seem to get rid of. For example, if I mouse to the address line in Firefox and begin typing in a url, nothing happens until I move the mouse. Then, suddenly, what I typed will appear in the address bar. If I'm working in a shell, for example running portupgrade, nothing happens until I move the mouse. Then suddenly portupgrade will start working. Has anyone seen this type of behavior?

Making an image backup of the machine's disk before you start should give you a decent rollback scenario in case things go badly.

There was a bug in X several months back that resulted in the same symptoms. As I recall, it appeared with first X version that defaulted to using hal and dbus -- a work around was to tweak xorg.conf to restore the old behaviour, by adding entries like this: Section "ServerLayout" [...] Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off" EndSection Check the archives for the full story -- there were more things to twiddle than just that option. The problem was fixed within a couple of weeks, and given that you should have rebuilt everything as part of your 7.2 to 8.0 upgrade, it really shouldn't be affecting you. It might be the case that the same sort of work arounds help in your case though.

I caught the -H flag right after I wrote the mail. The result has to be multiplied by 1024. It's possible you're right but what I am trying to do is to monitor the amount of free physical memory still on the system.

I read most of the answers to this thread and after attempting the very similar upgrade (6.2-STABLE to 7.3) I can tell you that it can fail. In fact it did, and several times. In my case there were several problems I was overlooking, for example I have an IDE drive and 4 satas in a RAID5 config with gvinum. I had completely forgotten I had moved /usr to the gvinum dirve, so every time I would boot I was seeing the wrong binaries and libs, and the upgrade process was not easy. After really screwing up the whole system, I finally resorted to downloading the iso for v8 cd1 and live. With the help of FixIt the holographical shell and the live, I was able to recover the complete system and actually finishing the last steps as I'm writing this. I mean, I was able to fully recover the system without reformatting and installing from scratch. This process taught me several things: 1) upgrade has to be thought out pretty well, examine everything and plan for contingency. If you have disk arrays they may and should not mount until the end of the upgrade process IMHO. 2) The upgrade process is not hard at all, once you understand how it works. You will usually need lots of experience with Unix and hacking in general. 3) Most importantly, FreeBSD is simply _very hard_ to destroy. I really, really screwed up my system, and was able to recover it by using the handbook, google, the install CD and the Live. Now that I can truly appreciate the separation of system base from everything else, I can tell you with a lot of certainty that it's really hard not to be able to recover from a failed upgrade. Having said all this, make sure that you backup most of what you will miss, or if you can, backup everything. The upgrade process is not usually harder than what is stated here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/updating-upgradin= g.html Also, if your setup is simple enough, you may be able to do it with the sysinstall utility of CD1, nevertheless, I don t advise it unless you know what your doing! Also, in my case I had a _need_ for upgrading, if you don't have a specific need, just leave it alone. The majority of newer ports will still work with 6.2. and I don't really think any security things will affect you if they haven't already!

From what I've been able to gather I think this only applicable to amd64. You might have a different reason for wanting to know this, but I can assure you my lockups aren't due to a lack of memory from the host anyways. I have an order of magnitude more free memory(according to top) in my hosts than my VM requires when it's running and it still locks on every csup attempt.

Best would probably be to label the devices and use the labels instead of device names. It will work without changes in both bare metal and vmware. (Or maybe use the ufsid labels.)

Ah. That's different.

I created Other/FreeBSD 64bit OS type. When setting vmware up without NAT I can configure the em0 interface and get direct access, but with NAT I can't see the virtual interfaces vmware create.

Look into /usr/ports/x11-drivers. You will need to keep two configurations (xorg.conf) - one for the "real" and one for the emulated video card, and manually switch them. You don't specifically need it but you can also look at /usr/ports/emulators/open-vm-tools.

Depending on what your requirements for "production" might be and how=20 good know FreeBSD, this is a good enough path. The officially=20 recommended one also includes 6.4, but if the configuration is simple=20 enough (no fancy partitioning, no software RAID), you could simply skip=20 from 6.2RC1 all the way to 8.0 if you know what you are doing. Regardless, you will need to upgrade all of the installed ports (you can = do it at the end, no need to upgrade every time). In any case, don't do it remotely (without access to a physical=20 console), this is a long upgrade path for it to simply work the first=20 time. As others said, you can recover FreeBSD from practically any=20 disaster involving such an upgrade, but it won't necessarily be easy.

Considering that VMware is now at version 7 something I would just move on and use VirtualBox. 95% of the stuff VMware 7 can do it can do, although the OSE version in ports lacks USB pass-thru, but I'm sure it is leaps and bounds ahead of VMware 3 from ports. VMware will most likely ever support FreeBSD as a host and the Linux kernel hooks are too deep to reverse it and since VirtualBox works great, just use that. I run Win7 x86 and Win2008 R2 just fine inside VirtualBox. There is currently a bug in the FreeBSD-stable kernel (newer then Jan 29th) or so which caused the current VirtualBox install to freeze. Just follow the intructions on the VirtualBox FreeBSD wiki to pull the latest 3.1.4 VirtualBox and you should be good. http://wiki.freebsd.org/VirtualBox (see the notes under "know issues" at the bottom for update your ports outside of the current ports freeze.

See the known issues at the bottom of the VirtualBox wiki. http://wiki.freebsd.org/VirtualBox Are you running a 8-STABLE kernel newer then Jan. 29th?

I looked over the instructions in http://wiki.freebsd.org/VirtualBox and couldn't find anythings I did that would be out of sync with the instructions.

I've only ever installed Windows guests. Is the FreeBSD host system freezing up or the Linux guest install? I've installed various versions since VirtualBox hit ports and I've never had an issue, so I've never tried to troubleshoot anything, so I wouldn't know where to point you specifically. Is the host still accessable via SSH, ie: the X system is freezing, or the whole system frozen? Anything in /var/log/messages ?

I have no FBSD VM, but just about every other OS vms. LeoOSx, Win7(32&64), Several XPs, several 2003, Fedora and even an OS/2 warp. They all work. In fact, LeoOsx and Win7 (32) are up as I type this.

If you suppress this, all should be fine, but maybe dangerous in case your new kernel doesn't boot as intended. In this case, the subject "make buildworld runs out of space" may lead to a misunderstanding; according to what you stated, "make installkernel" was the operation causing the out of space problem. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...

I haven't built the python26 port anytime recently, but have several django related things running fine under it. What I do is csup the ports tree by itself (not trying to do it at the same time on the same command line as the build). I keep my csup housekeeping and supfiles in /usr/sup so I just cd /usr/sup and csup -L 2 ports where my 'ports' file simply contains: *default host=cvsup.nl.freebsd.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=. *default delete use-rel-suffix compress ports-all After the ports tree refresh is finished then I install software by changing to the appropriate port directory and do the usual make && make install && make clean dance. I also use portupgrade so there are additional embellishments for use in an update/upgrade scenario. Try separating the steps, ala do the ports tree refresh to completion first, then attempt to install the port. -Mike From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Mar 18 02:48:21 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A4784106566B for ; Thu, 18 Mar 2010 02:48:21 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from kingedgar@gmail.com) Received: from mail-yx0-f185.google.com (mail-yx0-f185.google.com [209.85.210.185]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 207738FC0A for ; Thu, 18 Mar 2010 02:48:20 +0000 (UTC) Received: by yxe15 with SMTP id 15so805261yxe.7 for ; Wed, 17 Mar 2010 19:48:20 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:mime-version:received:in-reply-to:references :date:message-id:subject:from:to:content-type; bh=x8K3A+de9VUbOYJNT+u1NqbYF1WA8/S8Bllb5CIMpRc=; b=XFV6F4iRKRJ9axqRCjNa1LsVqG+ANVv11ow5dmY2G3GK6TsB7mLkBMOLjomBC+/DUj l8+hD2wfKADTRwQyuj67axIKNgeK/gHnqNvrv5IwuWr2OFTt5QzZ2xFjbHT97SwMeU9O 2L7zFa05+SGTB9eVIbKuqw7Ddje+XHThUy7rI= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=mime-version:in-reply-to:references:date:message-id:subject:from:to :content-type; b=iednCYWP7NkPWrOJnyX9/SrGFaPYGlxTeuvrS+kEC+e474wwWCisZGbBICg46T6ArL DHVcWtKYCgsr1KJ4+z2dVaV93rCrEKclZYGSApdvGuhIRGIDCFuBc1/uYfSZi5Yz24WL vlM4hjIB00hZS4qLr3M+0n0lu4dekrR0rvoq8= MIME-Version: 1.0 Received: by 10.150.67.1 with SMTP id p1mr4837759yba.114.1268880500161; Wed, 17 Mar 2010 19:48:20 -0700 (PDT) In-Reply-To: <20100318020823.2091a76e.freebsd@edvax.de> References: <521093.11031.qm@web36505.mail.mud.yahoo.com> <20100318020823.2091a76e.freebsd@edvax.de> Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2010 21:48:20 -0500 Message-ID: <970380131003171948u5acca730i9f95e3731a1ab9d5@mail.gmail.com> From: Jason Garrett To: FreeBSD-Questions Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Subject: Re: make buildworld runs out of space X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2010 02:48:21 -0000 On Wed, Mar 17, 2010 at 20:08, Polytropon wrote: > On Wed, 17 Mar 2010 17:38:06 -0700 (PDT), Bill Tillman wrote: >> I rebuilt the machines with 1G / and all was well.

Yes it's adequate for *one* kernel. But it's often too limited for a couple of kernels (e.g. /boot/kernel.old and /boot/kernel). My /boot has two kernels now, and they are build with debugging symbols so they take a bit more space, but the following is a sample du run: $ du -hsx /boot/kernel* /boot 136M /boot/kernel 136M /boot/kernel.old 273M /boot $ With 273 MB for kernels, there has to be adequate space for the *rest* of the root filesystem files too. With 512 MB you are very close to having "just enough" space, but it's not certain if e.g. your /tmp already contains a few dozen MB of temporary files. As you found out, 1 GB of root filesystem space is ok for now :-) From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Mar 18 07:15:32 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 964EA106564A for ; Thu, 18 Mar 2010 07:15:32 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from yuri@rawbw.com) Received: from shell0.rawbw.com (shell0.rawbw.com [198.144.192.45]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6B5498FC17 for ; Thu, 18 Mar 2010 07:15:32 +0000 (UTC) Received: from eagle.syrec.org (stunnel@localhost [127.0.0.1]) (authenticated bits=0) by shell0.rawbw.com (8.14.4/8.14.4) with ESMTP id o2I7FWt9091013 for ; Thu, 18 Mar 2010 00:15:32 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from yuri@rawbw.com) Message-ID: <4BA1D312.9010302@rawbw.com> Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2010 00:15:30 -0700 From: Yuri User-Agent: Thunderbird 2.0.0.23 (X11/20100206) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Subject: Which gdb GUI do you use?

Honestly, if a system is going to go through that large of a change, here's what I'd recommend. First scenario is the quickest running, then continue with the second to keep it up-to-date Since *ALL* configuration of base and ports is done by /etc and /usr/local/etc, back up those two directories to a tarball. they're all text files so it should compress very well. Note the packages currently on your system with a simple pkg_info. This gets you a prime data set that can restore 99%+ functionality if used. Scenario 1: pkg_info >/root/pkg_info.txt tar -cPpzf /root/62rc1-config.tgz /etc /usr/local/etc /root/pkg_info.txt ** keep this /root/62rc1-config.tgz archive in a safe 2 spots. 2 spots. fresh install of 8.0R on the box. extract, at minimum, the /etc entries from the tarball kept safely away from the box for each package listed in pkg_info.txt, install from packages that package (just the QUICK way to bring a box to a usable state) extract the /usr/local/etc from the tarball. **TRY** to restart your services. The reason I state 'try' is that config files may have changed from a package version a.b to x.y, so you may need to tweak your config files to match the current package. Now that you have a live box again, able to serve requests, it's time to keep it maintained. Scenario 2: install portaudit run portaudit, fix any vulnerabilities ** at this time, your system is safe from most vulnerabilities run your favorite port management software to update the rest of the ports who do not have vulnerability advisories.

It would be useful to have a hostname I have somewhere a Perl script that can be used/adapted to generate pseudo English words.

Last night we ran into trouble with the 3ware controllers we have (9650SE-8LPML) because we couldn't create a larger RAID5 than 1.99TB. We are going to use FreeBSD 8.0 and Bacula, but first we obviously need to create a working RAID. My questions are: - Are HighPoint RocketRaid controllers a good alternative to 3ware controllers? Are RocketRaid controllers true hardware RAID? - What should we look for in a RAID controller spec to see that it has support for larger than 2TB RAIDs? I've been looking at these: http://www.highpoint-tech.com/USA_new/series_rr2300.htm http://www.highpoint-tech.com/USA_new/series_rr3500.htm Any FreeBSD recommendations? Or perhaps for another 3ware controller? We're using SATAII drives. Thanks for your help!

Thinking about this some more, a good trick would be to generate a hostname from the MAC address of the host, since that is guaranteed to be unique. Something like this: % cat hngen #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; MAIN: { use integer; my @a = ( 'a' .. 'z' ); my $mac = shift; my $n = ''; $mac =~ tr/://d; $mac = hex $mac; # Convert to decimal integer while ( $mac > 0 ) { $n = $a[ $mac % @a ] . $n; $mac /= @a; } print "$n\n"; } % ./hngen 00:40:05:a5:8d:b7 bigdehkkt It does mean that hosts from the same manufacturer will tend to have similar names -- this might be construed as a feature...

Is ZFS not an option? - you could save yourself a lot of money and hassle with hardware RAID by moving to ZFS. Either using onboard SATA ports on the motherboard (and accept that you might have to shutdown the box to swap failed disks out) or get a simple 8-port HBA in JBOD mode, e.g: http://www.lsi.com/channel/products/hba/sas_sata_hbas/internal/lsisas3081er/index.html You'll need plenty of RAM too, but IMHO it is worth the trade.

The aging 8308elp, performs quite nicely with decent disks. Got one here (at home) handling 8 1T5 Barracudas in RAID50 (with coldspares), that routinely handles 400+mbytes/sec io, even in windows. It's been running in FreeBSD as well, but until I can figure out how to get reliable backups (the MPT issue shared with OpenSolaris) I'm stuck with windows on the box. FreeBSD's mfiutil works works splendidly with the controller allowing you to handle things like patrol-reads from an SSH session without much trouble. As a SAS-controller, it "eats" both SAS and SATA disks, and plain and simple just "works". //Svein - -- - --------+-------------------+------------------------------- /"\ |Svein Skogen | svein@d80.iso100.no \ / |Solberg stli 9 | PGP Key: 0xE5E76831 X |2020 Skedsmokorset | svein@jernhuset.no / \ |Norway | PGP Key: 0xCE96CE13 | | svein@stillbilde.net ascii | | PGP Key: 0x58CD33B6 ribbon |System Admin | svein-listmail@stillbilde.net Campaign|stillbilde.net | PGP Key: 0x22D494A4 +-------------------+------------------------------- |msn messenger: | Mobile Phone: +47 907 03 575 |svein@jernhuset.no | RIPE handle: SS16503-RIPE - --------+-------------------+------------------------------- If you really are in a hurry, mail me at svein-mobile@stillbilde.net This mailbox goes directly to my cellphone and is checked even when I'm not in front of my computer. - ------------------------------------------------------------ Picture Gallery: https://gallery.stillbilde.net/v/svein/ - ------------------------------------------------------------ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.12 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkuh9YAACgkQODUnwSLUlKTZiwCeODrGVYneWFn9nKZDUJ5jhOdt 3boAoIM/HrcfpzKXNOsPic+QQ4ooaL5d =Yya0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Mar 18 09:53:12 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 09B681065670 for ; Thu, 18 Mar 2010 09:53:12 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from antoniok.spb@gmail.com) Received: from mail-fx0-f224.google.com (mail-fx0-f224.google.com [209.85.220.224]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9156B8FC13 for ; Thu, 18 Mar 2010 09:53:11 +0000 (UTC) Received: by fxm24 with SMTP id 24so1380158fxm.3 for ; Thu, 18 Mar 2010 02:53:10 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:mime-version:received:in-reply-to:references :from:date:message-id:subject:to:cc:content-type; bh=02MwOcAaUvjDKHxIdYxHdefAVxKt8lpSklrGZN6eu4w=; b=FxSq4X1RWQr//HtZZmpLPhRgfG0GL1lKnrA8RwR5mFgyba6fCBjdVQfZr7J2DwrX2m 6qdswcRe+yh9SKmRwg17oxSi0mcdWCIxB/Ne72JhX1WvMxBxUNMqyadI2/+Mftt5V5Fb ZUVU8svPGkic1wXsHsOHjkSkdU60L+xFr4A/4= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=mime-version:in-reply-to:references:from:date:message-id:subject:to :cc:content-type; b=q/oKookj/OePyfupnz/mApspK2h6FP6TKhpmoiJZHeqvXV/Po6HQ0QipJjXGfnox1B VvfSym2bCtzKt5sKDN8gXIRhyG/HIegNd0b3HoNR9Il1HuPJqS8Y0rzEYx2xR1RuBxIa e0UpU3u72aPE69GylJfmbfYlE0CnxWyFO3QD0= MIME-Version: 1.0 Received: by 10.239.192.79 with SMTP id d15mr1355485hbi.52.1268905990135; Thu, 18 Mar 2010 02:53:10 -0700 (PDT) In-Reply-To: <4BA1F42C.1030607@comclark.com> References: <4BA1F42C.1030607@comclark.com> From: =?UTF-8?B?0JDQvdGC0L7QvSDQmtC70LXRgdGB?= Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2010 12:52:50 +0300 Message-ID: <3f1c29e71003180252g9d172dejc02f91fe874f5ea2@mail.gmail.com> To: Aiza Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.5 Cc: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: shrink /usr size X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2010 09:53:12 -0000 2010/3/18 Aiza > /usr is the last partition in the slice.

Backup the contents or /usr to a different partition, or preferably to some external media. Unmount /usr and destroy it by using bsdlabel(1) to create two appropriately sized partitions in its place. Create filesystems on the new partitions using newfs(1). Restore the backup of /usr. Edit /etc/fstab as appropriate and mount the new partitions. Everything you really need to do this is on the root partition, but you might find lack of vi(1) and various other utilities somewhat inconvenient. Also editing the label of a disk with mounted partitions is a pretty risky operation and forbidden by default: you will need to know the magic incarnation: sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=16 Also, there's no real reason to keep the mysql data in its own partition - -- if it was on a different disk that would be a different matter -- so if your /var is big enough, you could just swap /var and /usr, which saves you all that mucking around with partitions.

Is it perhaps not a limitation in the 3ware controller, but rather the 2TB limit for a single slice imposed by the traditional DOS mbr? In which case, simply switching to using gpart(8) should solve the problem and let you have much larger filesystems.

If, and only if, you have free space on your HDD following the partition you want to expand, you can use bsdlabel to edit the partition table and then growfs(8) to extend the filesystem into the new space. > I'm going to change HDD on server to a bigger one and dd from old to new, > but in this case the space visible to FreeBSD would be the same, how to make > it grow? However, in this case -- don't do that. dd(1) is not the best choice. Instead, use sade(8) or fdisk(8) and bsdlabel(8) to slice and partition your new hard drive, install any necessary boot blocks etc. Or use the new gpart(8) stuff. Create filesystems using newfs(1). Mount the new partitions temporarily under /mnt: # mount -t ufs -o rw /dev/ad2s1a /mnt # mount -t ufs -o rw /dev/ad2s1e /mnt/usr (etc...) Then use dump(8) and restore(8) to duplicate the contents of your old partitions onto your new HDD: # dump -0a -L -C 32 -f - / | ( cd /mnt ; restore -rf - ) # dump -0a -L -C 32 -f - /usr | ( cd /mnt/usr ; restore -rf - ) (etc...) Edit /mnt/etc/fstab appropriately, then unmount the partitions from your new HDD, shutdown your system and reboot from the new HDD. dump and restore is much more efficient than using dd(1) as it copies the actual files into a new filesystem. It also understands more about the internals of the filesystem than other backup software, so gives the most accurate duplication. The '-L' flag causes it to operate on a snapshot of the source filesystem, which avoids the sort of problems you can get dealing with live filesystems.

Apple's got a similarly capable O/S and their development suite is not only stable, but free and uses GCC. In my situation, the code works fine on both O/S as I'm not writing any kernel level stuff or anything. The Xcode IDE is a wonderful tool though for writing userland stuff. I guess it really depends on your project, but if you're looking for gui debugger/development suite it's worth a try. -- Nathan Vidican nathan@vidican.com On Thu, Mar 18, 2010 at 3:15 AM, Yuri wrote: > I know there is ddd, but it has so many bugs that it makes it barely > usable. > There is emacs, but I am not used to it and don't like it.

Why didn't you say so? That's pretty simple really. Once you've generated the hostname, just use hostname(1) to make it the live name of the machine. This would have to be done with a small shell script, yes. Probably the easiest way to do that is a small RC script set to run just before /etc/rc.d/hostname, and that stole^Wborrowed most of the logic from that script about kenv and DHCP names, and hostname already being set. The core actions that script has to do are: if [ -z ${hostname} ] ; then hostname=$( generate_hostname ) /bin/hostname "${hostname}.example.com" echo hostname=\"${hostname}.example.com\" >> /etc/rc.conf fi Once hostname is set in /etc/rc.conf, this script will do nothing, and the regular /etc/rc.d/hostname script will operate normally. Setting the hostname with /bin/hostname is all that is specifically necessary for the local machine. It doesn't really need to be added to /etc/hosts, although that's not a bad idea. An alternative might be to run everything using DHCP and get the DHCP server to generate names and dish them out to the clients. Of course, it would be good to add the new hostname to some sort of networked database, like the DNS or NIS or LDAP so that other hosts can know how to get to it, but that's a different problem.

I ran into something similar with my Areca controller on a backup server. I ended up creating 2 raid sets, one for the boot OS and the other for the backup spool and used gpart for the larger than 2TB RS. Perhaps the same needs to be done on the 3ware eg # df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/da0s1a 1.9G 496M 1.3G 28% / devfs 1.0K 1.0K 0B 100% /dev /dev/da1s1d 29G 10G 16G 39% /usr /dev/da1s1e 33G 5.0G 26G 16% /var /dev/da0s1d 61G 50G 6.4G 89% /var/db /dev/da2p1 2.6T 797G 1.6T 33% /backup zbackup1 2.7T 1.2T 1.4T 46% /zbackup1 I would go for the 3ware over the RocketRaid. We have used the 3ware cards for some time and they have been very reliable for us. The disk replacement process is well designed and has been reliable for us over the years. We also use some of the Areca cards and they have been good too. Not much experience with the RocketRaid. ---Mike -------------------------------------------------------------------- Mike Tancsa, tel +1 519 651 3400 Sentex Communications, mike@sentex.net Providing Internet since 1994 www.sentex.net Cambridge, Ontario Canada www.sentex.net/mike From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Mar 18 15:12:36 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 979A41065675 for ; Thu, 18 Mar 2010 15:12:36 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from prvs=6860d7fe3=pschmehl_lists@tx.rr.com) Received: from ip-001.utdallas.edu (ip-001.utdallas.edu [129.110.20.107]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6BBA98FC29 for ; Thu, 18 Mar 2010 15:12:36 +0000 (UTC) X-Group: None X-IronPort-Anti-Spam-Filtered: true X-IronPort-Anti-Spam-Result: ApsEAIjdoUuBbgog/2dsb2JhbACcILoShHkEgx0 X-IronPort-AV: E=Sophos;i="4.51,267,1267423200"; d="scan'208";a="29180144" Received: from zxtm01.utdallas.edu (HELO utd65257.utdallas.edu) ([129.110.10.32]) by ip-001.utdallas.edu with ESMTP/TLS/DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA; 18 Mar 2010 10:02:37 -0500 Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2010 10:02:36 -0500 From: Paul Schmehl To: yuri@rawbw.com, freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Message-ID: <56FB4A948FF4A20F16FC65F7@utd65257.utdallas.edu> In-Reply-To: <4BA13B7D.2010803@rawbw.com> References: <4BA13B7D.2010803@rawbw.com> X-Mailer: Mulberry/4.0.6 (Linux/x86) X-Munged-Reply-To: Figure it out MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Cc: Subject: Re: Anybody uses VMWare on FreeBSD?

Use growfs. But that only works with an empty space after the partition you intend to grow. "man growfs" will give you some hints.

If it is somehow being used to store NAT session data it might be a possibility. If such is the case all recent MySQL versions by default time out an idle connection, and unless the client detects this and reconnects automatically it is a problem. You can extend the idle delay window to its maximum by placing wait_timeout = 31536000 after the other contents of the global section (will have [mysqld] at the top) of your my.cnf. Even this will eventually drop a connection if idle for longer than this period, but it is as long as you can configure so you hope something pings the database before this expires. As far as the NAT is concerned itself, an overflow can happen from not enough memory in the pool to contain all the session data for the volume of traffic you experience through the router. This should result in dropped connections which then become automatically reestablished very soon after. It should not necessarily cause all traffic to cease once a day. The NAT pool and memory resources, as well as session time out values are tunable. However, it is not clear which NAT and firewall solution you are using, so it is difficult to provide any insight until we know the solution we are discussing. I have used all three over the years, but have used pf long enough now that what I recall from ipfw and ipfilter days is rusty. Others on this list are more informed than myself as well, so when we know specifically what NAT you are using and more details of the problem maybe more help will pop up. -Mike From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Mar 18 19:54:15 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4F93F106566B for ; Thu, 18 Mar 2010 19:54:15 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from jeep@skywolf.net) Received: from manticore.skywolf.net (manticore.skywolf.net [72.249.145.150]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3553A8FC12 for ; Thu, 18 Mar 2010 19:54:15 +0000 (UTC) Received: from [208.65.91.58] (c-71-204-3-155.hsd1.ga.comcast.net [71.204.3.155]) by manticore.skywolf.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8D98C2940F2 for ; Thu, 18 Mar 2010 15:36:04 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <4BA27FAD.7080106@skywolf.net> Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2010 15:31:57 -0400 From: Brian Wolman User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.8) Gecko/20100227 Thunderbird/3.0.3 MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Subject: natd opening partition X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2010 19:54:15 -0000 Hey there, I run a test server here at the house that also runs natd to share internet across the network.

Hardware is an IBM thinkpad T42p. I am trying to figure out if I have hardware or software issues. I built FreeBSD and installed Xorg 12/30/09. I am choosing not to use hal so: ---- xorg.conf ------- Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "X.org Configured" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" #Option "DontZap" "off" Option "AutoAddDevices" "false" ---- rc.conf ------- #hald_enable="YES" #dbus_enable="YES" For the first month, this all worked. with xorg starting ok (10-15 secs) or slowly (>60 secs). Starting in Feburary, Xorg would hang locking the keyboard or take a complete unpredictable time to start. FreeBSD was built w/o IPV6 support which is the only possible software issue I can think of (Packet sniffing suggested an IPV6 call is made during xdm start up). If I do not start xdm, I can find nothing that does not work. When xdm starts everything works until the next power on. On a recent trip I left the system up for 2+ months, using it as my only workstation. I am stumped, flummoxed, and otherwise at a loss :) _____ Douglas Denault http://www.safeport.com doug@safeport.com Voice: 301-217-9220 Fax: 301-217-9277 From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Fri Mar 19 01:11:15 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D5E1A1065670 for ; Fri, 19 Mar 2010 01:11:15 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from amvandemore@gmail.com) Received: from mail-pz0-f197.google.com (mail-pz0-f197.google.com [209.85.222.197]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id ABD428FC0C for ; Fri, 19 Mar 2010 01:11:15 +0000 (UTC) Received: by pzk35 with SMTP id 35so2066953pzk.28 for ; Thu, 18 Mar 2010 18:11:15 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:mime-version:received:in-reply-to:references :date:message-id:subject:from:to:cc:content-type; bh=QMYpmETgDai+B6mgGG52mQVzu4DrXgwYJnlIUxxh6f4=; b=pbubIcDWYXfrUnPk1m0hGqQRnHg41+v/5YQvyXXYwr3JhG4jaKo1D3OLheEoL4PmiK uW/H/tOb+akwhzX2wIpq7weoU1EdwivUQiqH4nTQNelpqjQfaLmyd86/fB3Skdjgjg/E LS5wSlExY6SbDFw0PDOx1D/F7zfyodLWXuzCQ= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=mime-version:in-reply-to:references:date:message-id:subject:from:to :cc:content-type; b=U2JPBwLG7LvY6ulZcaDgaFhN85mQ7PyJOjkSwXdIimrgWeOqwvsp3M2EfuoWWiQai8 OPwy8Rlu9DQNvJQLDQHYkknR5wq9GeMmp+1ciG7M3JpRNdMpD7jyBmFcUe9ah/ryunLn q2QPtEu6yCRLR2iqfG6+gLadDSQSc4n8hcvSw= MIME-Version: 1.0 Received: by 10.142.250.40 with SMTP id x40mr1793213wfh.47.1268961075026; Thu, 18 Mar 2010 18:11:15 -0700 (PDT) In-Reply-To: <4BA2C900.5010400@comclark.com> References: <4BA2C900.5010400@comclark.com> Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2010 20:11:14 -0500 Message-ID: <6201873e1003181811s2e9a9f6fsf0a8181cce339cdc@mail.gmail.com> From: Adam Vande More To: Aiza Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.5 Cc: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: VirtualBox from the command line X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 19 Mar 2010 01:11:15 -0000 On Thu, Mar 18, 2010 at 7:44 PM, Aiza wrote: > Does VirtualBox launch from the FBSD command line? > Is there a package for it in the pkg system? > # VirtualBox -h Sun VirtualBox Graphical User Interface 3.1.2_OSE (C) 2005-2009 Sun Microsystems, Inc.

Not very informative. I also read the VirtualBox manual here http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch02.html#startingvboxonlinux The VirtualBox website http://www.virtualbox.org shows a GUI manager for configuring the host and guest setups. I did pkg_add -r virtualbox During the install got these messages Your SDL library has been built with libvgl support, which means that you can run almost any SDL application straight on your console (VESA 2.0 compatible videocard is required). To do this you have to load the vesa kernel module or enable it in your kernel, and set environment variable "SDL_VIDEODRIVER=vgl". Since i Want to run virtualbox under vga I did this set env SDL_VIDEODRIVER=vgl added vesa_load="YES" to /boot/loader.conf At the end of the package install it says to Add vboxdrv_load="YES" to /boot/loader.conf and reboot which i did. before launching do mount -t procfs proc /proc pw groupmod vboxusers -m root To launch it enter VirtualBox on the command line. [take special note of the capital letters V & B in the command name] I get msg "Failed to open the X11 display." tried starting VBoxSDL get this error VBoxSDL: Error -1908 in suplibOsInit! VBoxSDL: Kernel driver not installed VBoxSDL: Tip! Make sure the kernel module is loaded. It may also help to reinstall VirtualBox. Tried starting VBoxManager VBoxManager: Command not found. Tried starting VBoxHeadless VBoxHeadless: Error -1908 in suplibOsInit! VBoxHeadless: Kernel driver not installed VBoxHeadless: Tip! Make sure the kernel module is loaded. It may also help to reinstall VirtualBox. Why don't virtual box GUI start in vga mode? Is this telling me that I have to have Xorg and some desktop running before VirtualBox's gui will function? Are the scripts provided by vboxtool the only way to have command line control of VirtualBox? http://vboxtool.sourceforge.net/ See talk about vboxweb as alternate VirtualBox manager. http://vboxweb.blogspot.com/ Does not look like this is out of development yet. Anybody using this?

The problem occurs in the RAID controller BIOS (before we even boot or get to the OS install). Thanks to John for confirming these cards do work above 2TB. I will look into upgrading the firmware (on these brand new cards). Perhaps it's just the current firmware that can't handle 2TB harddrives x 3 in RAID.

For the past few weeks we have been running into problems where one particular client will go into an infinite loop where it is repeatedly trying to write data which causes the NFS server to return "reply ok 40 write ERROR: Input/output error PRE: POST:". This retry loop can cause between 20mbps and 500mbps of constant traffic on our network, depending on the size of the data associated with the failed write. We spent some time on the issue and determined that something on one of the clients is deleting a file as it is being written to by another NFS client. We were able to enable the NFS lockmgr and use lockf(1) to fix most of these conditions, and the frequency of this problem has dropped from once a night to once a week. However, it's still a problem and we can't necessarily force all of our users to "play nice" and use lockf/flock. Has anyone seen this before? No errors are being logged on the NFS server itself, but the "Server Ret-Failed" counter begins to increase rapidly whenever a client gets stuck in this infinite retry loop: Server Ret-Failed 224768961 I have a feeling that using NFS in such a matter may simply be prone to such problems, but what confuses me is why the NFS client system is infinitely retrying the write operation and causing itself so much grief.

Yes, your feeling is correct. This sort of race is inherent to NFS if you do not use some sort of locking protocol to resolve the race. The infinite retries sound like a client-side issue. Have you been able to try a newer OS version on a client to see if it still causes the same behavior? -- John Baldwin From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Fri Mar 19 13:20:55 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2D2591065673 for ; Fri, 19 Mar 2010 13:20:55 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from anoop.kn@gmail.com) Received: from mail-pv0-f182.google.com (mail-pv0-f182.google.com [74.125.83.182]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 04F278FC1C for ; Fri, 19 Mar 2010 13:20:54 +0000 (UTC) Received: by pvc7 with SMTP id 7so340396pvc.13 for ; Fri, 19 Mar 2010 06:20:54 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:mime-version:received:in-reply-to:references :date:message-id:subject:from:to:content-type; bh=QYGjT6POaaEy2QOEvCa4ebdKqsJVmLiGrnxpaUBnQ0M=; b=iXJBsyFcTrfsqyqrFULQR+deC6bTtm+pTC3uFCZNa4Tq0NC1t72A8MJuCT5c6AIMGN 8CrnA8lQgnUOUzX8KfqrkBQ38cg8y1a97TcbB3a1LHVZNtwYDVNKWjEtBGFRbmOgEH3W Kx0iEdJFOf2dgyBkqy/+os5uhZBnu4VQW92SI= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=mime-version:in-reply-to:references:date:message-id:subject:from:to :content-type; b=jKWnRUX8CGsOfMjQBhyRAWOJ4KIHvOryf+3BYTxnhf/nmRsOWrK/K+mxlH4XoHQ5Vp C8H6r8Rx4kTGcF8HGvl5O5awYg4Du7HqEB+F3xnm1rn3qnmGEjckpYx+QWcXjtmT9E/g Q63kQAocLW1htGqoCTaZqX+6Q9pNCPfMQGI1U= MIME-Version: 1.0 Received: by 10.143.20.7 with SMTP id x7mr948543wfi.328.1269004854584; Fri, 19 Mar 2010 06:20:54 -0700 (PDT) In-Reply-To: <7ff5545f1003120000t3db354b0pe405b9f56b38979b@mail.gmail.com> References: <7ff5545f1003120000t3db354b0pe405b9f56b38979b@mail.gmail.com> Date: Fri, 19 Mar 2010 18:50:54 +0530 Message-ID: <7ff5545f1003190620n5835d60dh6168c9c2621becd5@mail.gmail.com> From: Anoop Kumar Narayanan To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Subject: FreeBSD 8.0 Booting Problem on ZV5320US Laptop X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 19 Mar 2010 13:20:55 -0000 I have recently installed FreeBSD8.0 on my 5 year old HP laptop with absolute 0 battery backup (behaviour same when batter removed). Installation works fine but when I try to boot into FreeBSD I get to the BTX loader screen, after having made any selection and it pauses for about 15 secs and the computer suddenly powers down. I was able to boot into the system occasionally lets say about 1 in 5 boots. I am able to install and boot into Linux without any problem. On successful boot, I did see a message "battery0: battery initialization failed" 1. Is there any way to increase the amount of debug messages printed on the screen to figure out what's happening ? 2. Has it got to do with some module crashing as, I am able to install and run LINUX without any problem ? 3. Why is there a pause of 15 secs after making the selection ?

Perhaps I'll try it with an 8.0 client. If I remember correctly, one of the strange things is that it doesn't seem to hit "critical mass" until a few hours after the operation first fails. I may be wrong, but I'll double check that when I check vs. 8.0-release. I forgot to add this in the first post, but these are all TCP NFS v3 mounts. Thanks for the response.

So then you are attempting to startup using a power adaptor (i.e. your computer is plugged in to a wall socket)? I had the reverse problem a while ago with Slackware shutting down in the middle of installation onto a Toshiba laptop while FreeBSD has always been no problem. My guess is that these issues reflect power management settings, perhaps even something in the bios. Does this occur when you use the installation or boot-only disks? Sorry this is not more help to you.

Everything had gone very well until I tried to install the jdk15 port. Please note that I am very comfortable with Linux (I've been using it at home for 9 years), but I'm very new to the world of FreeBSD. First, after the port had compiled on my system for many hours, it crashed with an error message stating that I was "out of swap space". I had only devoted 128 MB of RAM to the VM at this point (I planned to increase it later), so I doubled that to 256 MB and re-ran "make install clean". After doing that, I got the following error message: ===> Building for jdk-1.5.0.16p9_3,1 # Start of jdk build bsd i586 1.5.0_16-p9 build started: 10-03-19 03:37 if [ -r ./../../deploy/make/Makefile ]; then \ ( cd ./../../deploy/make; gmake sanity EXTERNALSANITYCONTROL=true CONTROL_TOPDIR=/usr/ports/java/jdk15/work/control CONTROL_TOPDIR_NAME=control ALT_OUTPUTDIR=/usr/ports/java/jdk15/work/control/build/bsd-i586 ARCH_DATA_MODEL=32 MILESTONE=p9 BUILD_NUMBER=root_19_mar_2010_03_37 JDK_BUILD_NUMBER=b00 ; ); \ fi gmake[1]: Entering directory `/usr/ports/java/jdk15/work/deploy/make' gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/java/jdk15/work/deploy/make' gmake[1]: Entering directory `/usr/ports/java/jdk15/work/j2se/make' gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/java/jdk15/work/j2se/make' if [ -r ./../../install/make/Makefile ]; then \ ( cd ./../../install/make; gmake sanity MAKEFLAGS= EXTERNALSANITYCONTROL=true ALT_CONTROL_TOPDIR=/usr/ports/java/jdk15/work/control ALT_J2SE_TOPDIR=/usr/ports/java/jdk15/work/j2se ALT_OUTPUTDIR=/usr/ports/java/jdk15/work/control/build/bsd-i586 ALT_RTPATCH_DIR= ALT_BASE_IMAGE_ZIP= ALT_BASE_IMAGE_DIR= ALT_NEW_IMAGE_DIR= ALT_BUNDLE_DATE=19_mar_2010 ; ); \ fi gmake[1]: Entering directory `/usr/ports/java/jdk15/work/install/make' gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/java/jdk15/work/install/make' Build Machine Information: build machine = Build Directory Structure: CWD = /usr/ports/java/jdk15/work/control/make TOPDIR = ./../..

There may have been a half-built work directory still in place from the failed build. If that happens, clear it with a 'make clean'. For big ports like Java, it helps to break up the steps.

Ok, so I'm still able to trigger what appears to be the same retry loop with an 8.0-RELEASE nfsv3 client (going on 1.5 hours now): $ cat nfs.sh client#!/usr/local/bin/bash for a in {1..15} ; do sleep 1; echo "$a$a$"; done client$ ./nfs.sh >~/output the on the server while the above is running: server$ rm ~/output What happens is that you will see 3-4 of the same write attempts happen per minute via tcpdump. Our previous logs show that this is how it starts, and then ~4 hours later it begins to spiral out of control, throwing out up to 3,000 of the same failed write requests per second.

You could make a copy of graphics/sane-backends to graphics/sane-backends-devel, fix the source in the new port's directory and install it as a regular port.

I don't know if its a specific Athlon XP related problem as I did observe a similar post some years ago.

Maybe its something in the BIOS, but the thing is that Linux boots fine on the machine. Maybe some driver is crashing and is causing a reboot of the machine.

I can install it just fine, but can't seem to to boot into the installed version (Once its been installed).

I have checked the porter's handbook before writing this, in fact I discovered the CONFIGURE_ARGS variable which proved very useful for passing the --enable-pnm-backend switch to the configure script. (http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/building.html#USING-CONFIGURE). Nevertheless, the problem is that pnm.c has a bug since last year and it has not been fixed, and only developers use that driver, so I guess we've all gotten used to fiddling with the source, instead of forcing the maintainer to fix it. BTW today I got tired of this BS so I formnally filed the bug: https://alioth.debian.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=312401&group_id=30186&atid=410366 Anyway, back to the port, this is the problem I have: whe I type make CONFIGURE_ARGS=--enable-pnm-backend it effectively makes all the backends in the correct way, including the infamous pnm backend. I later go to the work directory, go into the sane-backendsxxxx sub-directory and modify backends/pnm.c. I latter go back to the root of the port (/usr/ports/graphics/sane-backends/) and type make again and nothing happens. In a normal make scenario, make would detct the .c had changed and re-compile and link just that file(s). In the ports make scenario, make doesn't do that. Is there a special switch to the port's make process, to actually go and re-make the source?

Please advise. =20 Add the patch to the files/ directory of the port. The patch should be relative to the main source directory of the port, e.g. work/foo-x.y for the foo port. Use a name for the patch that doesn't exist yet. After creating the patch, use chflags to set the uschg and uunlnk flags for your patch. This way, if the port is updated, your patch cannot be removed. But you might need to update it.

The inability to even locate or read the labels on a mounted system is about as un-POLS as I've come across lately.... Thanks for the help, though. I booted single-user, mounted a usb-stick, and piped the output of geom label to a file on the stick. Not fun. Only having run FBSD for 4 years or so now, I wasn't aware of any good sources for this kind of info except dmesg. I'll be looking into /var/log/messages more closely in the future. You don't see it mentioned too often in reference to noob questions.

The ufsid labels are automatically removed from a filesystem when it is mounted. So it is not surprising that no ufsid labels are found on a running system. And IIRC, the automatic ufsid labels are a new feature.

This way, if the port is updated, your patch cannot be >removed. But you might need to update it. If the port already patches the file(s) in question, run 'make patch' with the port makefile first, so you don't lose that work. Then cd to the working directory and make your additional changes. If you need to change a file that wasn't already patched by the port, first save a copy of it using 'cp foo{,.orig}'. Then edit the copy without the .orig suffix. When you're done with those, use 'diff -u foo{.orig,}' to generate an updated patchfile. The convention is to name the patchfile 'patch-foo' (substituting the actual name of the source file for 'foo'). But if the existing patch uses some other pattern, use that instead. So, if you're updating or creating a patch to foo.c which is in the toplevel working directory for port bar, and you're in work/bar-x.y, you would use something like the following: diff -u foo.c{.orig,} > ../../files/patch-foo.c Now run 'make clean' with the port makefile. From here on, 'make build' or 'make install' will apply your new patches along with any pre-existing ones. Whenever I modify a port like this, I usually make a copy of it under root's home directory and install it from there. That way, I can keep my copy of the portstree in complete synch with the official one, and there's no need to worry about updates quashing my changes. It also provides a quick-and-dirty way to see which ports I've modified.

To anyone who is interested: I did some poking around with DTrace, which led me to the nfsiod client code. In src/sys/nfsclient/nfs_nfsiod.c: } else { if (bp->b_iocmd == BIO_READ) (void) nfs_doio(bp->b_vp, bp, bp->b_rcred, NULL); else (void) nfs_doio(bp->b_vp, bp, bp->b_wcred, NULL); } These two calls to nfs_doio trash the return codes (which are errors cascading up from various other NFS write-related functions). I'm not entirely familiar with the way nfsiod works, but if nfs_doio() or other subsequent functions are supposed to be removing the current async NFS operation from a queue which nfsiod handles, they are not doing so when they encounter an error. They simply report the error back to the caller, who in this case is not even looking at the value. I've tested this by pushing the return code into a new int, errno, and adding: if (errno) { NFS_DPF(ASYNCIO, ("nfssvc_iod: iod %d nfs_doio returned errno: %d\n", myiod, errno)); } The result is that my problematic repeatable circumstance begins logging "nfssvc_iod: iod 0 nfs_doio returned errno: 5" (corresponding to NFSERR_INVAL?) for each repetition of the failed write. The only things triggering this are my failed writes. I can also see the nfsiod0 process waking up each iteration. Do we need some kind of "retry x times then abort" logic within nfsiod_iod(), or does this belong in the subsequent functions, such as nfs_doio()? I think it's best to avoid these sorts of infinite loops which have the potential to take out the system or overload the network due to dumb decisions made by unprivileged users.

Local reads and writes to the pool easily saturate the disks with roughly 75mb/s throughput, which is roughly the best these drives can do. However, working with Samba, writes to a share could easily pull off 75mb/s and saturate the disks, but reads off a share were resulting in rather pathetic 18mb/s throughput. I found a threadon the FreeBSD forums (http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=9187) and followed the suggested advice. I rebuilt Samba with AIO support, kldloaded the aio module and made the following changes to my smb.conf From: socket options=TCP_NODELAY To: socket options=SO_RCVBUF=131072 SO_SNDBUF=131072 TCP_NODELAY min receivefile size=16384 use sendfile=true aio read size = 16384 aio write size = 16384 aio write behind = true dns proxy = no[/CODE] This showed a very welcome improvement in read speed, I went from 18mb/s to 48mb/s. The write speed remained unchanged and was still saturating the disks.

This is it however, I can't figure out how to increase Samba read speed any further. Any ideas?

If the maintainer patched filename.c, 'make patch' will create filename.c.orig (which is the original author's file) and filename.c (which is the result of the maintainer's patches.)

Create a file in /usr/local/libdata/ldconfig/ containing the directories you want added to the ld search path.

You taught me something today. :-) You're welcome. We're here to help. :) The main point I wanted to make was to run "make patch" BEFORE editing the port's sourcecode, so you don't lose the work done by the maintainer And you would lose that if you simply did "make extract" and then started hacking on the result. Or, what amounts to the same thing, if you grabbed the distfile and unzipped it into your home directory or somewhere.

Here's something else that I've found really useful as a port creator, maintainer and troubleshooter. If I want to make some additional changes to a source file that is patched by a file stored in files/patch-...., I'll do this: make patch # extracts source and patches files cd work/foobar/... # Now make additional edits in patched file, leaving the # .orig file alone cd ../back/to/port/directory make makepatch The makepatch target recurses through the work/foobar directory and creates diffs for all file.ext/file.ext.orig pairs. It writes them to the files/ directory with the patch- prefix on each so the patch target processes them. The only thing to watch out for here, is that makepatch has its own file naming convention that doesn't always mirror the port creator's. For instance, some ports have patch files named "patch-aa", "patch-ab", etc. The makepatch target will recreate them with filenames based on the directory and filename of the file to be patched during the build.

This retry loop can cause between 20mbps and 500mbps of I'm afraid I don't quite understand what you mean by "causes the NFS server to return "reply ok 40 write ERROR..."". Is this something logged by syslog (I can't find a printf like this in the kernel sources) or is this something that tcpdump is giving you or ??? Why I ask is that it seems to say that the server is returning EIO (or maybe 40 == EMSGSIZE). The server should return ESTALE (NFSERR_STALE) after a file has been deleted. If it is returning EIO, then that will cause the client to keep trying to write the dirty block to the server. (EIO is interpreted by the client as a "transient error".)

Have you been able to try a newer OS > version on a client to see if it still causes the same behavior? > As John notes, having one client delete a file while another is trying to write it, is not a good thing. However, the server should return ESTALE after the file is deleted and that tells the client that the write can never succeed, so it marks the buffer cache block invalid and returns the error to the app. (The app. may not see it, if it doesn't check for error returns upon close as well as write, but that's another story...) If you could look at a packet trace via wireshark when the problem occurs, it would be nice to see what the server is returning. (If it isn't ESTALE and the file no longer exists on the server, then thats a server problem.) If it is returning ESTALE, then the client is busted. (At a glance, the client code looks like it would handle ESTALE as a fatal error for the buffer cache, but that doesn't mean it isn't broken, just that it doesn't appear wrong. Also, it looks like mmap'd writes won't recognize a fatal write error and will just keep trying to write the dirty page back to the server. Take this with a big grain of salt, since I just took a quick look at the sources. FreeBSD6->8 appear to be pretty much the same as far as this goes, in the client. Please let us know if you can see the server's error reply code. Good luck with it, rick ps: If the server isn't returning ESTALE, you could try switching to the experimental nfs server and see if it exhibits the same behaviour? ("-e" option on both mountd and nfsd, assuming the server is FreeBSD8.)

Some (EINTR, ETIMEDOUT, EIO) are not considered fatal, but the others are. (When the async I/O daemons call nfs_doio(), they are threads that couldn't care less if the underlying I/O op succeeded. The outcome of the I/O operation determines what nfs_doio() does with the buffer cache block.) > > The result is that my problematic repeatable circumstance begins logging > "nfssvc_iod: iod 0 nfs_doio returned errno: 5" (corresponding to > NFSERR_INVAL?) for each repetition of the failed write.

The only thing that should stop a client from retrying a write back to the server is a fatal error from the server that says "this won't ever succeed". I think we need to figure out if the EIO (NFS3ERR_IO in wireshark) or if the server is sending NFS3ERR_STALE and the client is somehow munging that into EIO, causing the confusion. rick From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sat Mar 20 01:28:05 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 56EF91065673; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 01:28:05 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from dan.naumov@gmail.com) Received: from mail-bw0-f216.google.com (mail-bw0-f216.google.com [209.85.218.216]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5E8888FC12; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 01:28:04 +0000 (UTC) Received: by bwz8 with SMTP id 8so3538697bwz.3 for ; Fri, 19 Mar 2010 18:28:03 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:mime-version:received:in-reply-to:references :date:message-id:subject:from:to:content-type; bh=6r7Ruld4lQK7PdbGvYJaSwXnS0Y+83oNhcyHTfti57k=; b=YctfHydih6/5jek5ROfggr8KpAqkbnwsOJLDKJn9evraOGfuZC1uZ7OTfVHOVSZzX1 K5kWBkyCixamY9XP8Eu9zo4TRP7nU1lmlKkX9/Xyl7X0yRdrNoZaF8ux+apCwfRfNrBF ChMQzpFCxlQYAzbRg3K9jxLtKqragYzlACS3E= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=mime-version:in-reply-to:references:date:message-id:subject:from:to :content-type; b=jHSECJ3aaST4Vir0rdb51HRM/gAUjT7Jk6bM1VrJ9Q7OYvjOd6oIcMC+HsoPoHCeMM RjYgOWldoe2dx2byDdq6FkbnM685tJ+EuS0zwmCQR7H5vI86/8FgDP3ByRGVgpVsXatN n2v+RQiUqkCoB/johF01auN8Xy9t/GWhhB5P8= MIME-Version: 1.0 Received: by 10.204.1.136 with SMTP id 8mr1457434bkf.92.1269048482999; Fri, 19 Mar 2010 18:28:02 -0700 (PDT) In-Reply-To: References: Date: Sat, 20 Mar 2010 03:28:02 +0200 Message-ID: From: Dan Naumov To: freebsd-net@freebsd.org, freebsd-questions@freebsd.org, FreeBSD-STABLE Mailing List , freebsd-performance@freebsd.org Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Cc: Subject: Re: Samba read speed performance tuning X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sat, 20 Mar 2010 01:28:05 -0000 On Fri, Mar 19, 2010 at 11:14 PM, Dan Naumov wrote: > On a FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE/amd64 system with a Supermicro X7SPA-H board > using an Intel gigabit nic with the em driver, running on top of a ZFS > mirror, I was seeing a strange issue.

Why did noone tell me how much of an enormous performance boost vfs.zfs.prefetch_disable=0 (aka actually enabling prefetch) is. My local reads off the mirror pool jumped from 75mb/s to 96mb/s (ie. they are now nearly 25% faster than reading off an individual disk) and reads off a Samba share skyrocketed from 50mb/s to 90mb/s. By default, FreeBSD sets vfs.zfs.prefetch_disable to 1 on any i386 systems and on any amd64 systems with less than 4GB of avaiable memory. My system is amd64 with 4gb ram, but integrated video eats some of that, so the autotuning disabled the prefetch. I had read up on it and a fair amount of people seemed to have performance issues caused by having prefetch enabled and get better results with it turned off, in my case however, it seems that enabling it gave a really solid boost to performance. - Sincerely Dan Naumov From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sat Mar 20 01:49:46 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org

A few days ago, I added an intel SSD as the zpool cache device and the read speed is mind blowing now. This is from inside a VM frunning on it meaning ad0 is really a vdi. Once the cache is populated, HD latency is mostly a thing of the past. # diskinfo -tv /dev/ad0 /dev/ad0 512 # sectorsize 12884901888 # mediasize in bytes (12G) 25165824 # mediasize in sectors 24966 # Cylinders according to firmware. 16 # Heads according to firmware. 63 # Sectors according to firmware.

This makes sense. According to wireshark, the server is indeed transmitting "Status: NFS3ERR_IO (5)". Perhaps this should be STALE instead; it sounds more correct than marking it a general IO error. Also, the NFS server is serving its share off of a ZFS filesystem, if it makes any difference. I suppose ZFS could be talking to the NFS server threads with some mismatched language, but I doubt it.

If VFS_FHTOVP() doesn't return ESTALE when the file no longer exists, the NFS server returns whatever error it has returned. So, either VFS_FHTOVP() succeeds after the file has been deleted, which would be a problem that needs to be fixed within ZFS OR ZFS returns an error other than ESTALE when it doesn't exist. Try the following patch on the server (which just makes any error returned by VFS_FHTOVP() into ESTALE) and see if that helps. --- nfsserver/nfs_srvsubs.c.sav 2010-03-19 22:06:43.000000000 -0400 +++ nfsserver/nfs_srvsubs.c 2010-03-19 22:07:22.000000000 -0400 @@ -1127,6 +1127,8 @@ } } error = VFS_FHTOVP(mp, &fhp->fh_fid, vpp); + if (error != 0) + error = ESTALE; vfs_unbusy(mp); if (error) goto out; Please let me know if the patch helps, rick From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sat Mar 20 07:37:54 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C8F57106564A for ; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 07:37:54 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from aiza21@comclark.com) Received: from avmxsmtp1.comclark.com (avmxsmtp1.comclark.com [202.69.191.115]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 451838FC08 for ; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 07:37:53 +0000 (UTC) X-IronPort-Anti-Spam-Filtered: true X-IronPort-Anti-Spam-Result: ApEBAIv6o0vKRa39/2dsb2JhbAAH1yCEfQSDHA X-IronPort-AV: E=Sophos;i="4.51,278,1267372800"; d="scan'208";a="10280128" Received: from unknown (HELO [10.0.10.3]) ([202.69.173.253]) by avmxsmtp4.comclark.com with ESMTP; 20 Mar 2010 13:29:46 +0800 Message-ID: <4BA45D44.6090806@comclark.com> Date: Sat, 20 Mar 2010 13:29:40 +0800 From: Aiza User-Agent: Thunderbird 2.0.0.17 (Windows/20080914) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: FreeBSD Questions Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Subject: GBDE encryped File system X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sat, 20 Mar 2010 07:37:54 -0000 In release 8.0 is GBDE now part of the base system?

You don't have to enable it. Nothing to add to the loader.conf. But if you want to mount the partitions during the boot: 18.16.1.2.1 Automatically Mounting Encrypted Partitions It is possible to create a script to automatically attach, check, and mount an encrypted partition, but for security reasons the script should not contain the gbde(8) password. Instead, it is recommended that such scripts be run manually while providing the password via the console or ssh(1).

That is exactly where I am, at that screen when I make the selection (any selection) it just pauses for about 30 Secs before the computer shuts down. Tried all options including 'set hint.acpi.0.disabled="1"' followed by 'boot' at the loader prompt. Its more or less 1 successful boot in 7 attempts, totally random, not dependent on w/o ACPI is picked or not, sometimes it just works with verbose logging or normal boot. It is definitely something to do with the RESET BIOS timer (If at all there is anything like that) expiring before FreeBSD kernel can fully load or something...

The steps i've taken so far to make things more secure are: * changed the encryption method for passwords in /etc/login.conf from md5 to blowfish and changed all the passwords to ridiculously obscure ones (at least as obscure as I could think of). * changed /etc/ttys secure entries to insecure to prevent root logins on the console (the above are not really sshd specific i know.) * Disabled root login by ssh in /etc/ssh/sshd_config * Set myself as the only user able to login by ssh * Disabled password logins completely, and to only allow public key authentication * Changed the default ssh port from 22 to something much higher I'm the only user that will ever need to log into the machine. I wondered, does this setup seem ok and are there any other methods used by anyone on list that might help me to secure remote logins even further? Thanks for any help.

Hi! First step to ssh security is: Don't panic! Take your time to read the logs and understand what's going on. So, you've got bombarded with login attempts, but they failed. Just because there is some log entry doesn't mean you have to act on it. I recall reading an analysis of this kind of brute force attacks on securityfocus.com. These brute force attacks are pretty harmless if you've got basic security in place. This was also discussed on the list two weeks ago, check the archives. > * Disabled root login by ssh in /etc/ssh/sshd_config Good, if you read the logs you will see that about 50% of the attempts are against the root account. > * Set myself as the only user able to login by ssh Good, if you read the logs you will see that about 40% of the attempts are against standard unix accounts, and guest. The remaining are against randomly generated user names usually based on common names (john, smith, etc) you can get this statistic from your logs. > * Disabled password logins completely, and to only allow public key authentication This seems good for security, but not always practical. Now you have to walk around with a USB or have keys on your laptop and if you loose the USB or the laptop gets stolen you can't get access. Worse, you can't revoke the keys till you get back home. > * Changed the default ssh port from 22 to something much higher Number is irrelevant and I discourage this. If you ever find yourself behind somebody else's firewall, if access is enabled it is enabled for the default port. > I'm the only user that will ever need to log into the machine. I wondered, does this setup seem ok and are there any other methods used by anyone on list that might help me to secure remote logins even further? Since you're the only one on that system, you know where you're going to connect from, at least roughly. Why allow connections from anywhere? Restrict the client access to certain ranges of IPs. The different registries publish ip ranges assigned per country and you can create a list blocking countries you are certain not to visit, you can use my script: http://www.locolomo.org/pub/src/toolbox/inet.pl The last things I can think of is not to have your user name as in your mail address, not have mail password as your unix account password and remember to password protect your ssh keys. Run other services such as mail, http, dns etc. in jails - if possible separate jails. All this all depends on your paranoia.

I'd like to preserve my existing system in case things go pear-shaped so I'll copy the entire system onto a spare slice and then use csup to upgrade the copy to STABLE. Normally I'd go through the steps of bsdlabel, newfs and then dump|restore to create the copy but I'm wondering if I can take advantage of my recently created gmirror to cut down the work. I have two 500GB disks, /dev/ad4 and /dev/ad8, each partitioned into 4 slices of 88, 88, 42 and 259GB. My system is installed on the first slices (ad4s1 and ad8s1) which are mirrored as /dev/mirror/gm0. The second slices (ad4s2 and ad8s2) are currently unused. My thoughts are to temporarily add ad4s2 into gm0 with "gmirror insert gm0 ad4s2" and wait for the mirror to synchronise. I should then be able to remove the temporary addition with "gmirror remove gm0 /dev/ad4s2" at which point ad4s2 should be a duplicate of the original system and I can then go ahead and create a new mirror with "gmirror label -b load gm1 ad4s2" and "gmirror insert gm1 ad8s2". After editing /etc/fstab in the new mirror to use gm1 instead of gm0 I should then be able to boot into the system on slice 2 and upgrade it to STABLE while still keeping my original system to fall back to if required. Is this approach of moving disks from one mirror to another workable, or have I missed something that would lead me into deep trouble? I don't mind unduly if I make a mess of the second slice and have to start again but I don't want to lose the contents of my original system on slice 1. -- Mike Clarke From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sat Mar 20 16:14:20 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DC4E3106566B for ; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 16:14:19 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from gesbbb@yahoo.com) Received: from smtp102.prem.mail.ac4.yahoo.com (smtp102.prem.mail.ac4.yahoo.com [76.13.13.41]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 7F82C8FC13 for ; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 16:14:19 +0000 (UTC) Received: (qmail 81137 invoked from network); 20 Mar 2010 16:14:18 -0000 DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; q=dns; c=nofws; s=s1024; d=yahoo.com; h=Received:X-Yahoo-SMTP:X-YMail-OSG:X-Yahoo-Newman-Property:Received:Date:From:To:Subject:Message-ID:In-Reply-To:References:Reply-To:Organization:X-Mailer:Face:Mime-Version:Content-Type:Content-Transfer-Encoding; b=g/YAlEiEyRI+hpIIpKCI63fp7s46a0QEbCuFFo+uNS48NT1GCTJcgU/iZBwWkUJ0GbNxGyp2zGm4O8tR/6gaTx9Ylv6uDgiyaPpycf9x9MIM6GtkPLZXIPmLQQViimrRI5f0/iIBy7d4fIxQIwrFD0jU+dggup1GpdO2mn60F6I= ; Received: from c-67-189-160-65.hsd1.ny.comcast.net (gesbbb@67.189.160.65 with login) by smtp102.prem.mail.ac4.yahoo.com with SMTP; 20 Mar 2010 09:14:18 -0700 PDT X-Yahoo-SMTP: yeAAMgKswBATCul4lSbCWspvTA-- X-YMail-OSG: SZBUlgYVM1laNfkzYIQrysvpgBahnNgubbZ7Gm2s4yDINIjxThbcPIHEEXQtHqZGOXTA6K901nys.We8FbO3soOy1Fqt80evETXAPN.5kI3ayse5auOo_Jy8VVuCAToWck33ieaieAmpAbs41P9Wk910clJ36hYZ3pncaRvDT_2TZUCW8cK8xuSaKwKVjJMgNG7li1F9oLVpqKxcvcv20t99S6TWBqMcsYkdxF5STbpBQSC7WyE4exYXSlzZc6gn2_BpPNWfp7yIoRgbo6sNiveOmqDS1I7JWi_eSf6dC22.NvqNISC3kh3mTcYcM.QtVAl17vV2lw7xrUCK9c.S6w4q5A-- X-Yahoo-Newman-Property: ymail-3 Received: from scorpio.seibercom.net (scorpio.seibercom.net [192.168.1.101]) (using TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES128-SHA (128/128 bits)) (No client certificate requested) (Authenticated sender: gesbbb@scorpio.seibercom.net) by scorpio.seibercom.net (Postfix) with ESMTPSA id F26E522830 for ; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 12:14:17 -0400 (EDT) Date: Sat, 20 Mar 2010 12:14:17 -0400 From: Jerry To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Message-ID: <20100320121417.67724938@scorpio.seibercom.net> In-Reply-To: <4BA4EA8C.3090702@locolomo.org> References: <201003201318.o2KDIcIt001241@fix.fantomatic.co.uk> <4BA4EA8C.3090702@locolomo.org> Organization: seibercom.net X-Mailer: Claws Mail 3.7.5 (GTK+ 2.18.7; i386-portbld-freebsd7.3) Face: 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 X-Face: "\j?x](l|]4p?-1Bf@!wN<&p=$.}^k-HgL}cJKbQZ3r#Ar]\%U(#6}'?<3s7%(%(gxJxxcR Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Subject: Re: securing sshd X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list Reply-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sat, 20 Mar 2010 16:14:20 -0000 On Sat, 20 Mar 2010 16:32:28 +0100 Erik Norgaard articulated: > > * Disabled password logins completely, and to only allow public key > > authentication > > This seems good for security, but not always practical.

Seriously, disabling password log-ins and using key authentication is extremely secure. Do make sure that you password protect your keys however.

I don't doubt that it is much harder to brute force a key than a password. I simply say that it is not always practical. Anyone stealing or finding your usb or laptop will likely not be too interested in your data. But, now you have to carry the key and protect it. If you travel a lot, and travel light, you bring just a usb stick which is easily lost, and being without access for months is not fun.

I wondered, does this setup seem ok and are there any other methods used by anyone on list that might help me to secure remote logins even further? Hi, I'm using the following pf snippet in order to "protect" myself and my system's logs against brute force attemps on sshd: # # Block them all # block log quick from # # connection rate the incoming ssh connections and fill the bruteforce # table # pass in log inet proto tcp from any to any port = 22 \ flags S/SA keep state \ (max-src-conn 10, max-src-conn-rate 5/4, \ overload flush global) For more information on how this works, take a look at pf.conf(5). I don't know if it's complete (or even good practice), but a) I think it works for me and b) it does not depend on a port-provided solution. > Thanks for any help. > > Jamie > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sat Mar 20 17:23:44 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3647C1065670 for ; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 17:23:44 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from jg@fantomatic.co.uk) Received: from fix.fantomatic.co.uk (fix.fantomatic.co.uk [81.174.154.245]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B10AA8FC1C for ; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 17:23:43 +0000 (UTC) Received: from fix.fantomatic.co.uk (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by fix.fantomatic.co.uk (8.14.3/8.14.3) with ESMTP id o2KHNq0f001282 for ; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 17:23:52 GMT (envelope-from jg@fix.fantomatic.co.uk) Received: (from jg@localhost) by fix.fantomatic.co.uk (8.14.3/8.14.3/Submit) id o2KHNqBd001280 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 17:23:52 GMT (envelope-from jg) Message-Id: <201003201723.o2KHNqBd001280@fix.fantomatic.co.uk> To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Sat, 20 Mar 2010 17:23:51 +0000 (GMT) In-Reply-To: <87wrx69b1l.fsf@upnet.gr> From: Jamie Griffin X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.5 PL8] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Subject: Re: securing sshd X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sat, 20 Mar 2010 17:23:44 -0000 I think on reflection I might have been a little over the top with blocking password logins and I think the point about carrying a key on a usb stick, etc, is a very good one. The reason I went with that decision is because I only expect to be logging in to the server from two locations: at home or from a computer at my university, where the public key can be kept in the accounts I use at each location. Also, there are no other users loggin into it so it won't be too much of a problem doing it this way, i hope. When I saw hundreds of failed login attemps I panicked a bit i think :-) I really like the pf option and have just set up a similar rule actually, which i think will work well because i've also got it working with spamd to greylist inbound mail, as recommended by someone on this list the other day. Really appreciate all the good advice though, thanks.

Thanks for the advice Warren! I ended up doing the following: * Giving the VM 512 MB of RAM. I also tried with 256, but I got the same "out of swap space" error. * cd /usr/ports/java/jdk15 && make clean * make # wait 4 or 5 hours for this package alone :) * make install * make clean * make distclean This finally worked for me I didn't get any other errors. >> 1.

Check your log for your own successful logins to find the source IP, then look up the range with whois. You can be pretty sure that wherever you are on campus, the assigned IP will be in that range. Then just allow access from those ranges and block everything else in your firewall. Whitelists are far easier to manage than black lists. Having some daemon running to monitor illicit attempts to login and block the source is futile. You can be almost certain that you won't see that IP in your logs again, partly because these attempts may come from botnets, partly because the source may be assigned IP dynamically. Btw.

Ok, but as you can see from the paste above, I _do_ have the right distfile in my /ports/lang/python26 directory. So where is it getting this wrong distfile from, and why is it using it ? I am NOT csup'ing and installing the port all in one operation - I am doing two distinct things: 1. csup ONLY the python26 port 2. make install the python26 port Why is this rocket science ?

However, you might want to bring it upto date after installing it as there are a number of bug fixes and feature enhancements since the release of 8.0. The FreeBSD handbook tells you how to do it. >and > >2) Does it take advantage of the athlon's dual cores? Both the i386 (32bit) and AMD64 (64bit) versions take advantage of multiple cores. If you have more than 4G of RAM, use the 64 bit version, otherwise use the 32bit install. ---Mike -------------------------------------------------------------------- Mike Tancsa, tel +1 519 651 3400 Sentex Communications, mike@sentex.net Providing Internet since 1994 www.sentex.net Cambridge, Ontario Canada www.sentex.net/mike From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sat Mar 20 20:35:46 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: FreeBSD-Questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 97F36106564A for ; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 20:35:46 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from kraduk@googlemail.com) Received: from mail-fx0-f222.google.com (mail-fx0-f222.google.com [209.85.220.222]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 296E88FC12 for ; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 20:35:45 +0000 (UTC) Received: by fxm22 with SMTP id 22so3956098fxm.14 for ; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 13:35:45 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=googlemail.com; s=gamma; h=domainkey-signature:mime-version:received:in-reply-to:references :date:message-id:subject:from:to:content-type; bh=OvoMi7dysBVfeTy3GVAktR2pUdJnmCiXgLUpffm8z1I=; b=YkGWk6Afo+vVQ1S9DYusbqnrpmttpjtblcKscHqnhkGNYs5rCus1VOa/4OneL1Wujc qfruHox4oojed8wAxhUSf72kLFkIAakYXbUa20M3o6yGjGXa6mfhm2CUygWMgGunQynS 8fQwL/J4pBMZ0aAKh3Yes4mIh6V0beAZ5E7cc= DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; c=nofws; d=googlemail.com; s=gamma; h=mime-version:in-reply-to:references:date:message-id:subject:from:to :content-type; b=edliyQLFcaIFvNJBapNp/SoDqVHRSH4edUr5LvqchNhXmo9SupSihPY2hU4N7UPWUD W0tF0W9blYuZBMdimh/u2I8RQJBJGwgaKhJNYh0QglVDOvbIjiU+LxQcB/xZwJK4Cc3W DkoKOiX9dbX2xNaM4b4M5wbU25CLTvRikZj2Y= MIME-Version: 1.0 Received: by 10.239.186.11 with SMTP id e11mr305334hbh.82.1269117344592; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 13:35:44 -0700 (PDT) In-Reply-To: <20100320184228.M62623@brightstar.bomgardner.net> References: <20100320184228.M62623@brightstar.bomgardner.net> Date: Sat, 20 Mar 2010 20:35:44 +0000 Message-ID: From: krad To: Gene , FreeBSD-Questions@freebsd.org Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Cc: Subject: Re: AMD 64 X2 - Dual Core?

What's the best method to ban that ip [what is bruteforcig a server] what was logged on the logger? I need to ban the ip on the router pc. How can i send the bad ip to the router, to ban it? Just run a cronjob, and e.g.: scp the list of ip's from the logger to the router, then ban the ip from the list on the router pc? Or is there any "offical" method for this? I'm just asking for docs/howtos.. :\ to get started.. Thank you!

I was asking about this earlier, I went with pf which is already in the base system and also making sshd more secure by using the options in /etc/ssh/sshd_config. Have a look at `man 5 sshd_config` and there is loads of stuff on goodgle about this. So far, I really like what pf can do, check it out. `man pf.conf` and again there are lots of old posts on google, and the OpenBSD pf guide is good too: https://calomel.org/pf_config.html http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/firewalls-pf.html http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/ Jamie From owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sat Mar 20 23:18:22 2010 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7C62C106566B for ; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 23:18:22 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from freebsd.user@seibercom.net) Received: from mail-qy0-f126.google.com (mail-qy0-f126.google.com [209.85.221.126]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 29F1A8FC15 for ; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 23:18:21 +0000 (UTC) Received: by qyk32 with SMTP id 32so272931qyk.13 for ; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 16:18:21 -0700 (PDT) Received: by 10.229.232.149 with SMTP id ju21mr2204887qcb.87.1269126311092; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 16:05:11 -0700 (PDT) Received: from scorpio.seibercom.net (c-67-189-160-65.hsd1.ny.comcast.net [67.189.160.65]) by mx.google.com with ESMTPS id 23sm494043qyk.3.2010.03.20.16.05.09 (version=TLSv1/SSLv3 cipher=RC4-MD5); Sat, 20 Mar 2010 16:05:10 -0700 (PDT) Received: from scorpio.seibercom.net (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by scorpio.seibercom.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0AEE722830 for ; Sat, 20 Mar 2010 19:05:08 -0400 (EDT) X-Virus-Status: Clean X-Virus-Scanned: clamav-milter 0.95.3 at scorpio.seibercom.net Date: Sat, 20 Mar 2010 19:05:07 -0400 From: Jerry To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Message-ID: <20100320190507.1fa4a50b@scorpio.seibercom.net> In-Reply-To: References: Organization: seibercom.net X-Mailer: Claws Mail 3.7.5 (GTK+ 2.18.7; i386-portbld-freebsd7.3) Face: 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 X-Face: "\j?x](l|]4p?-1Bf@!wN<&p=$.}^k-HgL}cJKbQZ3r#Ar]\%U(#6}'?<3s7%(%(gxJxxcR Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Subject: Re: confirm 0e468fd0cede091de70f462228a30f3c07dd71fa X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list Reply-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sat, 20 Mar 2010 23:18:22 -0000 On Sat, 20 Mar 2010 21:34:27 +0000 freebsd-questions-request@freebsd.org freebsd-questions-request@freebsd.org articulated: > Mailing list subscription confirmation notice for mailing list > freebsd-questions > > We have received a request for subscription of your email address, > "FreeBSD.user@seibercom.net", to the freebsd-questions@freebsd.org > mailing list.
