Problem 1. The compilation speed of gcc seems to be very slow when I inlude templates from stdc++. The application so far is only a few hundred line long, but it takes at least 5 minutes to compile. Normally gcc is very quick. The resulting application is also much larger than I would expect. (about 250K). The application run speed is not slow, but it is not what I expect based on previous experience with FBSD on my machine. Problem 2 The gnu stdc++ implementation does seem to be missing quite a few things. The omission hurting most now is no mem_fun_ref. I can work around this by writing my own looping with iterators, but it rather defeats the point of the library. There are other omission like correct name spaces. I notice there are a number of STL implementations such as the SGI one. Has anyone tried porting this to FBSD and are they any better? Is gcc 2.7.x really up to it? I notice that visual c 5 seems to have a fairly complete implementation of stdc++, so I will continue development using NT. At some point I do need to run this code using gnu under FBSD as that is my first target platform. Regards Richard .......

I am trying to compile it with the sfio libraries. I installed those without too much trouble and the test script that comes with them does not indicate any errors. The perl install blows up on make depend. It does this with both the ports version of perl5.001 and the downloaded version of perl5.004 pl 4 I got from the cpan site. Here is the section where it explodes... Finding dependencies for av.o. Finding dependencies for scope.o. Finding dependencies for op.o. Finding dependencies for doop.o. Finding dependencies for doio.o. Finding dependencies for dump.o. Finding dependencies for hv.o. Finding dependencies for mg.o. Finding dependencies for perl.o. Finding dependencies for perly.o. Finding dependencies for pp.o. pp.c:45: parse error pp.c:47: parse error pp.c:49: parse error pp.c:54: parse error Finding dependencies for pp_hot.o. Finding dependencies for pp_ctl.o.

Finding dependencies for universal.o. Finding dependencies for globals.o. Finding dependencies for perlio.o. Finding dependencies for miniperlmain.o. Finding dependencies for perlmain.o. The parse errors seem to happen on any version I try to compile. I looked at the pp.c file and the mentioned lines occur inside a comment and I can not see any problems with the file itself. Someone mentioned that I should try to build it statically and I tried that as well with no difference. I looked at the makedepend part of the script and it is doing some funky stuff with sed that I don't even pretend to understand. I don't think it is likely that my version of sed is too old, as the system was installed fresh as 2.2.2-release... any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! thanks -Mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Feb 22 12:17:54 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA03683 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 22 Feb 1998 12:17:54 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.iconz.co.nz (mail.iconz.co.nz [202.14.100.36]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA03619 for ; Sun, 22 Feb 1998 12:17:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jonc@pinnacle.co.nz) Received: from news.iconz.co.nz (status.gen.nz [202.14.100.1]) by mail.iconz.co.nz (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id JAA085320888178631; Mon, 23 Feb 1998 09:17:11 +1300 (NZDT) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by news.iconz.co.nz (8.8.5/8.8.5) with UUCP id JAA19324; Mon, 23 Feb 1998 09:17:11 +1300 Received: from tui.pinnacle.co.nz (tui.pinnacle.co.nz [202.37.163.3]) by kakapo.pinnacle.co.nz (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA10572; Mon, 23 Feb 1998 09:07:31 +1300 (NZDT) Received: from localhost (jonc@localhost) by tui.pinnacle.co.nz (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id JAA10153; Mon, 23 Feb 1998 09:07:30 +1300 (NZDT) X-Authentication-Warning: tui.pinnacle.co.nz: jonc owned process doing -bs Date: Mon, 23 Feb 1998 09:07:30 +1300 (NZDT) From: Jonathan Chen Reply-To: Jonathan Chen To: Greg Lehey cc: "matthew c. mead" , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: new 2.2.5 installation randomly (and constantly) panics In-Reply-To: <19980222165501.24195@freebie.lemis.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Sun, 22 Feb 1998, Greg Lehey wrote: [snip] > > Ugh.

I also have System Commander, which supposedly allows the use of multiple operating systems. My computer is running an Intel Pentium With MMX enhancement, and has one 3 GB hard drive with 2 logical DOS drives. In order to install FreeBSD, I created a new partition outside of the extended DOS partition for fear of data loss. This new partition is at the physical last end of the drive. The install went fine, up to entering user names and passwords. But upon rebooting the system, and selecting "FreeBSD" from the list of available OSes, the screen simply displays "Read Error" and hangs. During install, I skipped Kernel configuration, chose "Novice Install," and had all of the files put on the new, empty partition I created outside of the extended DOS partition. As I said before, all of the install went flawlessly. Here is my problem: I can't run FreeBSD because every time I choose it from the list the "Read Error" message comes up. The partition it is on is not visible while in normal DOS and comes up as "Non-DOS" when I enter FDisk. What do I do? Must I set the new partition to active for the system to work? Should I have configured the Kernel for my system? Did I Install in the wrong place? Should I reinstall in a new partition? Any help would be appreciated.

The disk driver includes some safety measures which make it difficult to write a complete disk. I believe there is a way, but I never got it to work. Anyway, there's no need. There are plenty of utilities (tar, cp) which will replicate file systems on a different file system.

I just recieved my FreeBSD CD-Roms a few days ago and I am currently trying to get things setup. I have gone through the installation, which seemed to go pretty easily.. however there are a few things that I can not seem to do. I am trying to access the Handbook.. if I go to my /usr/share/doc directory, there is no handbook there. I have tried to reinstall the INFO and DOC distributions.. and it appears they are installing correctly. Also.. I am trying to run a few ports. I have gone in and installed them and I can see the skeleton for them. However, when I type MAKE INSTALL it tells me it cannot find the file. When I look in the /usr/ports/distfiles directory.. it is empty. So.. I then looked at the handbook on your Web Page (back in win95 now) and I read about linking the cdrom. so.. I tried to link it but it tells me that /cdrom/ports/distfiles does not exist. When I looked at the cdrom.. it is correct, there is no distfiles on the cdrom.. just one BIG file of ports.

One of my users just informed me he can force an immediate panic by writing a large file to ~ftp/pub/pcg (which is mounted to ~pcg/ftp_data with mount -t null ~pcg/ftp_data ~ftp/pub/pcg). Is nullfs unstable? In fact, I haven't crashed at all since I unmounted them, and it seems there's always a number of ftp connections when the machine crashes. I'm beginning to think this might be the problem. -matt -- Matthew C.

You don't happen to know of a way that I can allow user supplied anonymous ftp data to exist on another partition than the one ftpd is chroot jailed to, do you?

Larry, I've never gotten beyond (or felt the need to go beyond) emacs. I have some basic macros defined, but for my site work (which is far more Perl than HTML), emacs does everything for me. Our site uses no frames, no Java, no backgrounds, just text, tables, JPEGs and a few animated GIFs. We made the decision a long time ago to go for speed and universality over pretty imagemaps, because our site is actually much more extranet than promo. Anything but HTML-3.2 is a moving target, and is unlikely to be useable everywhere. Most HTML is just cut and paste anyway, once you have the basic structure up. I do have a lot of on-the-fly generated pages, but again, that's Perl5 CGI. If you do get into complex animations and such, that's Java or Javascript, so again, a programmer's editor like emacs is it. You extend it enough to automatically generate your style elements like buttons and logo placements and non-html bullets, and beyond that it's all programming, not WYSIWYG.

Before doing this I will be installing a 4.3GB hard drive (EIDE) which will accompany my older 1.6GB EIDE hd.

I am not interested in preserving any of the data or programs on the smaller drive and would prefer to start with two completely clean drives. I am looking for any suggestions/recommendations that anyone may offer to make this transition as painless and efficient as possible. e.g. Some questions that come to mind are which OS should I install first? When should I erase everything on the smaller disk? (I prefer not to have an older windows/dos version detected. I want to start with two completely clean hard drives.) Another question that I wonder about are what potential snags or pitfalls can I encounter of which I might not be presently cognitive? Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

I recently brought up a box to dialup an ISP (with one IP address) for temporary Internet access for about 10 client pcs. Here is what I did: 1) setup FBSD to connect to your ISP (via PPP, or whatever). I setup user PPP on tunnel device tun0 2) Install the options for Firewall. Modify /etc/rc.conf to enable and specify type "OPEN" for firewall. You must compile a custom kernel also. I believe you add kernel options "IPFIREWALL" and "IPDIVERT". Make and install new kernel. 3) Run "natd". See man pages for more detailed setup. You will need to modify /etc/services. Also, have this run at startup via /etc/rc.local. 4) Setup client PCs to point to FBSD box as gateway, and ISP's DNS servers. Here are my config files (as far as I can remember): /etc/firewall: /sbin/ipfw -f flush /sbin/ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via tun0 (or whatever your device connected to the net) /sbin/ipfw add pass all from any to any Appended to /etc/rc.local: natd -use_sockets -same_ports -dynamic -interface tun0 Hope this gets you started. -- Mark C. -----Original Message----- From: Gaylord Van Brocklin To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Sunday, February 22, 1998 8:13 PM Subject: Networking situation.. >Here is the situation, a cable modem coming in to a hub then going out to >two machines, one a BSD system which stays up 24/7, another a Windows >machine which will be powered off when not in use, the problem is that the >cable company only distributes one static IP per customer.

Our company is (still) waiting on a T-1 line into our new office. I had to get a solution up quickly that we could access our POP email from our new location. After trying NT Server with Proxy Server 2.0, I wasted an entire day trying to install the server and client workstations software. I had never used Proxy Server for NT, but it seemed like it would be a trouble free setup. Wrong! After installing the Proxy Server, it turned out that you had to install a proxy client on the workstation as well. That was fine on our NT workstations, but once I tried it on a Win95 laptop, KABOOM! The laptop would only come up in safe mode. That night, I said, F*CK this! So I configed a a spare P-100 with a 28.8 modem and NIC using natd and ip aliasing. I got a total solution finished in about 3 hours (from installation to a working gateway). I had never attempted ip aliasing or natd with FreeBSD before, and it was easier than I thought. The next morning, I hooked up the box, changed my NIC's IP address, dialed our ISP via ppp, and viola! Instant internet access. FreeBSD saves the day again! -- mark c. -----Original Message----- From: Gaylord Van Brocklin To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Sunday, February 22, 1998 8:13 PM Subject: Networking situation.. >Here is the situation, a cable modem coming in to a hub then going out to >two machines, one a BSD system which stays up 24/7, another a Windows >machine which will be powered off when not in use, the problem is that the >cable company only distributes one static IP per customer.

I didn't install ot at system initail creation because i didn't want to leave src's on the drive. But now I wish to add it while I create a new kernnel. I have all of the pieces is ....aa,ab and so on but i cann't find a tgz version that would be installed as a "package" what is the best way to accomplish this. 2)Where is the telnet signon message I wish to change it.

In the same directory you got the ssys.aa .ab etc, there should be an install.sh. And that will do it for you. The aa ab etc, files are concatinated together and piped into tar.

I just installed FreeBSD, on my little PC... after a lot of research and hard work! (I had problems with partitionning the FAT32 partition from win95...) anyway, it's done and I'm more than happy. I've got just a little problem... I can't install ANY of the packages I've downloaded via FTP. The packages are stored on a DOS primary partition (C:), but the configuration program doesn't seem to find them After correcting the errors in the filenames due to that damn 8 char limitation on DOS, it couldn't work either!!! I've tried everything! (that is: putting the package dir straight at the root of my C: drive, copying the packages directly into the /usr/ports/distfiles/ directory, etc...). The program is always telling me: "Unable to fetch from selected Media. Please (...)". When I try to "make install": same result. What the heck is happening????

I installed gmake/lesstiff but when I run 'configure' it comes to: ... [lotsa 'checking for ...' messages] creating ./config.status creating Makefile sed: 96: conftest.subs: filename expected creating /Makefile [above message repeated a couple of times] ... The created Makefiles are all empty!. I understand that there might be a problem with sed but the line in the config.status file which calls sed is too cryptic for me to decipher (I don't know anything about sed :-( ): # Protect against being on the right side of a sed subst in config.status. sed 's/%@/@@/; s/@%/@@/; s/%g$/@g/; /@g$/s/[\\&%]/\\&/g; s/@@/%@/; s/@@/@%/; s/@g$/%g/' > conftest.subs <<\CEOF /^[ ]*VPATH[ ]*=[^:]*$/d Yes, I know that ThotEditor is available as a package for 2.2.5 - I was even able to install and run it. But when I tried to create a document it said something about: 'Lettre.STR not found' and did nothing. I read something about compiling such *.STR files but where is the 'compiler' for that?

You can do this if you either a) Make at least one copy of /usr/src (say, /usr/src.1), download the new source, and do a recursive diff on the two directories. b) If you've got the disk space (~350MB for the repository, and ~150MB for a checked out copy of /usr/src, so a total of ~500MB) you could use CVSup to download the entire repository. You can then use the CVS commands to get diffs between the source code versions. Of course, both these approaches will tell you what code's changed. Unless your happy reading the code, it *won't* tell you why it's changed, or what the overall effect is. > I have a few machines with not-many disk memory. > I'd like make world on one machine and upgrade others handly. > It is possible?

But that potentially opens up other services (and possible security holes.) For example, what happens if someone uses one of those accounts when logging into your FTP server?

If you aren't using it already, you may need to re-configure and rebuild imapd to use the external verification.) -Pat To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 23 09:03:23 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA01044 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 23 Feb 1998 09:03:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from labinfo.iet.unipi.it (labinfo.iet.unipi.it [131.114.9.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id JAA01028 for ; Mon, 23 Feb 1998 09:02:46 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from luigi@labinfo.iet.unipi.it) Received: from localhost (luigi@localhost) by labinfo.iet.unipi.it (8.6.5/8.6.5) id QAA06633; Mon, 23 Feb 1998 16:27:48 +0100 From: Luigi Rizzo Message-Id: <199802231527.QAA06633@labinfo.iet.unipi.it> Subject: Re: What does this message from Luigi's snd driver mean?

The source for pwcheck is part of the cyrus distribution. If you installed cyrus using the FreeBSD port, pwcheck would be in /usr/ports/mail/cyrus/work/cyrus-imapd-v1.5.2/pwcheck/ How you modify it is pretty much up to you; and should depend upon exactly what you are trying to do. It could be made to use a private copy of the password file, or to use a private copy in addition to the system passwords. Or it could be made to use some completely different mechanism. Personally, I'd like to see someone do a version that checked the username and password against an LDAP database. (Or, better yet, add LDAP as a verification option to imapd and bypass pwcheck entirely.) -Pat To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 23 09:49:28 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA06576 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 23 Feb 1998 09:49:28 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from peloton.physics.montana.edu (peloton.physics.montana.edu [153.90.192.177]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA06571 for ; Mon, 23 Feb 1998 09:49:22 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from brett@peloton.physics.montana.edu) Received: from localhost (brett@localhost) by peloton.physics.montana.edu (8.8.8/8.8.7) with SMTP id KAA15126; Mon, 23 Feb 1998 10:48:48 -0700 (MST) (envelope-from brett@peloton.physics.montana.edu) Date: Mon, 23 Feb 1998 10:48:48 -0700 (MST) From: Brett Taylor To: Peter Rudolph cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: compiling ThotEditor ...?

I read something > about compiling such *.STR files but where is the 'compiler' for that? This sounds like a style file. To be annoying, you could install the package and "make extract" the port and see if you can see a Lettre.STR file somewhere, then try to guess where it should be installed. Oh, let's check the port plist - hmm... it says there is a Lettre.S - this is a schema, whatever that may be. It should be in: /usr/local/share/thot/schemas. You might try copying that file to Lettre.STR and see if the package works then. -shrug- ********************************************************* Brett Taylor brett@peloton.physics.montana.edu http://peloton.physics.montana.edu/brett/ When you wake up in the morning With the blues in your fingertips Get out that ol' guitar and play It's the only way to scratch that itch To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 23 09:50:18 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA07004 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 23 Feb 1998 09:50:18 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from alpham.uni-mb.si (alpham.uni-mb.si [164.8.1.101]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA06874 for ; Mon, 23 Feb 1998 09:50:10 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from vrtin@uni-mb.si) Received: from unicorn.uni-mb.si by alpham.uni-mb.si (PMDF V5.1-9 #7554) with ESMTP id <01ITXJ5KEFNA00038I@alpham.uni-mb.si> for freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG; Mon, 23 Feb 1998 19:49:58 MET Received: from localhost (david@localhost) by unicorn.uni-mb.si (8.8.8/8.8.8/19970814) with SMTP id SAA04257; Mon, 23 Feb 1998 18:49:56 +0100 (CET) Date: Mon, 23 Feb 1998 18:49:56 +0100 (CET) From: David Vrtin Subject: Re: POP3/IMAP e-mail boxes without users In-reply-to: To: patl@phoenix.volant.org Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Reply-to: David Vrtin Message-id: MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII X-No-Archive: Yes Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Mon, 23 Feb 1998 patl@phoenix.volant.org wrote: > How you modify it is pretty much up to you; and should depend > upon exactly what you are trying to do.

We have a variety of windows and freebsd machines. For windows there is a client for netscape calendar, and I'd like to know if there is a similar netscape calendar client for freebsd. The netscape calendar server that netscape sells provides a web based interface for anyone using a browser, but according to netscape, the vendor (freebsd) is responsible for the port of netscape calendar. I have downloaded the full version of netscape 4.04 but do not see a full client for netscape calendar and would like to verify if there is such a client. And if there isn't, is there any calendar/meeting maker software that freebsd supports? thanks ray To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 23 10:27:40 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA12667 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 23 Feb 1998 10:27:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from prepaid.atlas.com (atlas-238.atlas.com [206.29.170.238]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA12643 for ; Mon, 23 Feb 1998 10:27:25 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Brian_Beattie@Atlas.com) Received: from coyote.prepaid.atlas.com(really [10.16.7.71]) by prepaid.atlas.com via sendmail with smtp id for ; Mon, 23 Feb 1998 07:16:48 -0800 (PST) (Smail-3.2 1996-Jul-4 #1 built 1998-Jan-29) Date: Mon, 23 Feb 1998 07:14:40 -0800 (PST) From: Brian Beattie X-Sender: Brian_Beattie@coyote.prepaid.atlas.com To: Dennis Tenn cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Email to the lists.

I received several very good pieces of advice and tried them out: unfortunately the crashes continued. I have replaced the motherboard and P6-200, memory (putting in parity memory with ECC enabled in the motherboard BIOS), the SCSI disk controller, the Ethernet card and the video card. All that remains from the original system is the power-supply, the keyboard and the three disks. I have also turned off Ultra SCSI speed in the Adaptec card's BIOS. Two of the crashes in the past week have generated dumps; the rest were hard hangs. Stack traces of these follow. I have since realized that I need to generate a "debug" kernel so that variable names show up in the dumps; next time! # strings kernel.0 | grep STABLE 2.2.5-STABLE @(#)FreeBSD 2.2.5-STABLE #0: Tue Feb 17 08:44:04 MST 1998 # gdb -k kernel.0 vmcore.0 Copyright 1996 Free Software Foundation, Inc...(no debugging symbols found)...

() This last panic was a "killer:" the 9GB /var/spool/news partition was toasted beyond recovery (defined as a case where fsck -y runs for half an hour and looks like it will run forever...). This happened before and the interesting thing is that the system stopped crashing while /var/spool/news filled up again! Indeed, the system hasn't crashed in the three days since this last "killer" crash while the mean-time-to-crash in the prior week was less than a day. Based on all of this, I have made two suppositions: 1) I have a software problem and not a hardware problem. 2) Something about a "fully loaded" inn netnews system (7 GB of articles, a history file exceeding 120 MB, etc.) tickles a bug in FreeBSD that causes the observed hangs and panics. Hence, I expect that my system will run fine for another few days until netnews fills up a good fraction of /var/spool/news. My plan is to do the following: 1) Wait for the next crash and capture a crash dump against the debug kernel. 2) After capturing said crash dump; install on the machine an old kernel "borrowed" from another machine: FreeBSD 2.2-970422-RELENG. Since my memory tells me that when this pre-2.2.2 system was running on the machine in question, the system stayed up for months despite a fully loaded inn. Can anyone think of other things to try or a useful strategy to follow?

My root file system is corrupted. Something happend during the night, and when I came in this morning the system booted up into the /stand/sysinstall program. Rebooting, here is what I get: changing root device to sd0a WARNING: / was not properly dismounted. exec /sbin/init: error 20 exec /sbin/oinit: error 20 exec /sbin/init.bak: error 20 /stand/sysinstall running as init Ok. I try the fixit option. fixit cannot mount the fixit floppy nor the 2nd cdrom. Apprarently sysinstall has mounted the root device only, and the root partition looks pretty shaky and I cannot change anything to write mode. I have no mount and umount commands to mount the other partions. I ran fsck -n over all my partions and they only complain about not being unmounted properly (all right!). Running fsck -n over the root partion yields all kinds of inodes missing and other ugly junk. System: DEC Venturis FX5100 (100 MHz Pentium) Adaptec 2940 SCSI ID 0: Seagate Hawk 2XL ST32151N SCSI ID 2: Tanberg Tape Drive SCSI ID 3: Plextor 4Plex Plus 4xCDROM FreeBSD 2.2.2 OK. Here are a couple of questions on how to fix this: Q1: How do I boot from the bootable cdrom ? I did this once when I didn't want to, before FBSD was installed on the hard drive. I have tried all kinds of combonations, trying to boot from the cdrom to no avail. [By combonations, I mean trying: typing "3:cd0(0,a)kernel" or "3:cd0/kernel" or "3:cd0" at the boot prompt also setting the BIOS to boot from cdrom then hard disk and enable booting from cd-rom in the Adaptec setup] This way, I could mount the the other partions, make a backup copy of them, and then do a restore of the root partion from a prior backup tape of the root filesystem; reboot and wholla ? Q2: Can I do a re-install of FBSD, using the old partion table and just install the core stuff on /, /usr and /var ? Will the installation overwrite my other partions on /home, /u, /source and will they be lost or just as they where ? Q3: Can I cpio the whole partions to tape, re-install using the exact same filesystem sizes and restore the partion from the tape ? I am having a hard time cpio'ing say /dev/sd0s2e to tape, if this is even possible. I am missing dump also.

What I have in mind would be auto-generating a tape image of the model system using some combination of dump, tar, and dd, along with parameter blocks containing information for fdisk/mkfs/format. Then you boot to a floppy containing code which can deal with the tape; it rolls it in, and, presto changeo, you've got a complete, bootable, system only needing its rc.conf file edited in order to run. (Assuming the model has the same hardware as the target, of course.)

Firstly, it doesn't seem to pick up everything in the packages directory for optional installation. Namely, I went to install perl modules and it complained it couldn't find a dependency (perl itself!). This happened with TCL/TK as well. So, I went to look at the packages directly..... and there was perl-5.0040.tgz and some other things. As it turns out, this package installs it in /usr/local/bin BUT there is already a perl installed in /usr/bin (4.0 PL 36 ;-). Am I missing something here or is there a problem?

I have 2 Dell dimension XPSD300 ( Pentium II, 300Mhz) PCs , each with ~6.3GB hard disk. I installed everything well. Both were working fine until today when I tried to reboot one machine after making some changes in the network configuration, and now I can't get past the 'F?' prompt. But the other machine of the same type is working fine even after reboot. I checked your FAQ about this problem but it seems unlikely that there is a problem with the Disk geometry since another machine of the same geometry( same BIOS settings)& the same freebsd(2.2.1) is working perfectly well(from where I am sending this mail). I have another PC which has PPP network interface(for modem). This machine for some reason fails to communicate with other FreeBSD machines through telnet or ftp. In both the cases, it halts after it gets 'connected' and after sometime the connection gets closed. If you want to know any more information in detail, let me know. Thanks.

Now that I updated everything via CVSUP and did my make world, PPP no longer works. I get a OsSetRoute Failure as the last item in my ppp.log and PPP terminates with a seg fault core dump. My question is: How can I go BACK to the original 2.2.5-RELEASE version? Is there source tree or whatever I can download from somewhere and do another make world? This seems like my only option at the moment since this was the ONLY change made!

It shouldn't, but if you're installing Microsoft, it tends to want to wipe the disk clean of any operating systems, so it's probably a good idea to do it first. I don't know if Microsoft will install on the second disk, though.

SysCommander modifies the system type bit in the partition table and the boot blocks depend on it being the correct value.

Is this a known problem? Well, it would be nice to know how you determined that it doesn't recognize the partition. Can you describe it in more detail, please? Please copy -questions on your reply.

Fix procmail; error 2 is ``no such file or directory'' or perhaps a Procmail internal error. I don't know where sendmail tries to put dead letters though, check the user's maildrop permissions.

I keep having this problem too; it's a stale or incorrect libcompat. Rebuild kde and move /usr/lib/libcompat.so.* out of the way while it's building so that it picks up the static library; it seems to work fine then.

Here's a hint for the serial devices: /dev/cuaa0 = COM1 /dev/cuaa1 = COM2 You'll have to check the boot messages (run dmesg) to see if they were all found. Then use `set device /dev/device' in ppp to change the modem, then use `term' to drop to terminal mode and ensure you can talk with the modem. See http://www.freebsd.org/~brian/userppp.html for hints.

I am not sure what is buggy about it, it seems to work fine for me. The soft limit is like a "warning" limit to the user. The hard limit will not let the user go above the limit by any means. The grace period allows a user to use above the soft limit for a given amount of time, after that time is up, they cannot write any more blocks. For example, I set a soft limit of 10000 blocks (10MB), and a hard limit of 10500 blocks (10.5MB). A grace period of 7 days is defaulted. If this user goes above 10MB, he will get a warning message. The grace period is now in effect. During this grace period, he may write above 10MB (he will get warnings), but never ober 10.5MB (hard limit).

This is understandable, but I would much prefer that it used the swap partition I've provided for it instead.

I wrote a little program to try to reproduce the problem (it's attached after my signature), and that produced the above panic when the system got down to 532K free (as measured by top). I can find nothing in the system log that would indicate the source of the error. Could it be a hardware problem?

Each of these will run a stock system, modulo the minor config differences needed for each of them (i.e. network configuration). What I want to do is create a backup of the stock system on hard drive or tape drive. Then when a system crashes (or, more likely, is trashed by a student), I want to wipe everything, re-do hard drive partitioning if necessary, and completely reinstall from the backup. Questions: a) How, generally, do I set this up? b) Is it easier to do this via network boot and install (I will have a non-stock kernel including, for example, quad ethernet card drivers), or from an external tape backup that I can plug into the crashed machine? I don't mind spending money on good software if it would help.

You've covered what you wanted to say in so much packaging that at first I thought you were incorrect. Basically, that's what I said: >> Change to your source directory, # cd /usr/src >> set CVSROOT correctly, # CVSROOT= export CVSROOT (note that you're assuming csh, which is a bad idea; to make up for it, I'm assuming sh :-) >> then enter: >> >> # cvs co -r RELENG_2_2_5_STABLE world Here's your real point. The tag for -STABLE is currently RELENG_2_2, and I said RELENG_2_2_5_STABLE. Mea culpa.

I'd get a cable modem too if my only choice wasn't $100/month, $400/modem, $200/installation, dynamic IP address. In addition to what others have said, I suggest a 2nd ethernet card in the FreeBSD gateway. Connect your private network to the 2nd ethernet card rather than to the same network as the cable modem. It is my understanding there are minimal smarts in the cable modem and much of your internal traffic might leak thru the cable modem. In situations where a dynamic IP address is assigned thru a cable modem I've heard its hard to make sure the right machine is assigned that address. The cable modem "attaches" itself to a hardware address and refuses to re-ARP without re-set. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

Here's what I had to do... I have a dual boot system, win 95 and freebsd. I have a config.sys that has 3 menu items in it, win95, games, and freebsd. The freebsd config calls the autoexec.bat and loads nothing but "setmodem 2f8 3" to set the modem on com2 and then calls fbsdboot.exe to start freebsd. Works like a champ!

Ok here is my problems. I have two networked machines in my house both running win95 and winnt. I have access to a 386 computer which I can run Free BSD on. What I am thinking of doing is getting the computer and installing a modem and a network card on it so it can be on my network. With this computer running BSD I want it to dial up to my internet service provider and act as a router for my two computers on the network so they can access the internet. The system I have in place right now for getting my computer withought the phone line to access the internet is a wingate proxy server which is OK for accessing web pages, but I can not play games over the net on my computer behind the firewall because it is not directly connected, it only sends its requests to the proxy server. With the FreeBSD running on the 386 I am hoping that it will act as a router and actually allow my other two computers on the network to be registered on the internet. So far, does this idea sound feasable? Ok the next use for FreeBSD is to have my friend dial up to my FreeBSD server/router, and get BSP to route the requests back and forth amongst the two computers on the network and the computer connected over the telephone line so it is just like a miny internet. I would be using the TCP/ip protocol to communicate amongst the computer. Can FreeBSD handle this sort of protocol, and can I install a modem on the system? Wow that was a lot... Well ok that seems about it, if you can give me any information about the question I have asked and maybe would know of anything which would help me attain my goals, I would be extremely greatful. Thank you very much Brandon E.

I am a beginner at UNIX, so please bear with me as I ask the following question: I have FreeBSD 2.2.2 installed on my P166, and I have a 3C590 (or something like that) ethernet card and a US Robotic 56K modem. I have gotten to the point where I can setup the ethernet card to work and the modem to work, but not at the same time. I have a modem dial-up account with a local ISP, and a three computer LAN at home. I use fake IP addresses for the LAN at home, and my ISP dynamically assigns theirs. How can I set both the modem and the ethernet to work concurrently? I know this is possible with Win95. For example, I can have my ethernet card talk to the LAN while using the modem to talk to my ISP.I have also found that I can setup my computer as some sort of a gateway so that computers on my LAN can use my modem connection to the net. So, how would I go about setting both devices up to coexist? Once that is setup, how can I go about setting up the "gateway". If that is too complex a material to explain, where can I get some reading material on it? Thank you for taking your time to read this. This problem probably can a simple solution, but I am a beginner, so please tell it to me. Thanks again! I appreciate it.

Look there, and you will find some descriptions. For usual makefiles in ports and elsewhere, the usual cycle is make (fetch and extract source if nessecary) then compile, link This produces a executable and other stuff in the source and object tree ready to install make install puts the stuff made above in the right place and sets proper permissions and more. make clean removes the stuff made in "make" from the source and/or object tree. The installed stuff remains. In /usr/src: make world = make buildworld + make install This creates all binaries and libraries of the whole o/s. make buildmost + make installmost makes all binaries, but not libraries.

My system doesn't have any libcompat.so.*. It has only the static library libcompat.a. And this library has _ftok defined: I can see that using the nm command. A "make" on /usr/src/lib/libcompat does not create any dynamic library. I don't understand what happens; libmediatool was compiled without any problem, despite the fact of libcompat.so.xx being not present. However, the dynamic loader wants this library.

I'm a user of FreeBSD, and I have two big problems. ------------------------------------------------------------------ 1) Util a few days ago, everything was perfect. (I had 2.2.1-RELEASE) I decided to update my kernel sources with CVSup, so I've prepared a configuration file: (there are no comments..) /* *default host=cvsup.de.FreeBSD.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr tag=RELENG_2_2_5_RELEASE *default release=cvs *default delete use-rel-suffix src-sys */ and new sources are now an my system. Next I've compiled the kernel (in fact no change to previous configuration) and now my CD-ROM does not work. Here You are the part from my kernel configuration that describes this part: /* controller wdc0 at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 flags 0x00ff8004 vector wdintr disk wd0 at wdc0 drive 0 options ATAPI options ATAPI_STATIC device wcd0 */ and now I cannot mount my CD-ROM, it says that : >Input/Output error< Is there a problem in the kernel or I have done something wrong?? Problem is worse because I cannot mount the CD-ROM with the old release of FreeBSD ! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2) Some time ago I've received from the security-officer information how to patch the kernel to avoid the f00f problem. So I did it, then compiled the kernel and it still hangs up for hard! After compiling this line, and then executing it: /* long main []={0xc8c70ff0}; */ everything stops. What option should I include in my kernel configuration file to avoid this problem? ------------------------------------------------- Thank You for reading this info, and I hope that something can be done about this.

There are a few catches (aren't there always): 1) You'll need the CAM SCSI layer (ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/cam) 2) and for that to work, I needed the source tree from 25th Dec 97 (ftp://src.doc.ic.ac.uk/pub/unix/FreeBSD/3.0-971225-SNAP). BTW, if you want to boot with the SCSI support, you'll need the boot images (ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/incoming/cam-boot.tgz). Hope this is of use!

Please reply only to -chat] Hehe, these are going to be great days for FreeBSD at my University (University of Milan, Computer Science Department, Italy)! This morning I saw an ad regarding a talk on Linux organized by a group of students, leaded by a professor (Daniele Bruschi, bruschi@dsi.unimi.it). So I went to Mr Bruschi and said: "Hello, I'm using FreeBSD. Are you interested in evaluating it?". He replied: "Yes, are you willing to give a talk on FreeBSD, and maybe to organize a performance test vs Linux?" Gee, I have the opportunity to semi-ufficially present FreeBSD at my University, so I'm asking everybody's suggestions on the topics to show in a two hours introductory talk. Also, specific to Jordan: is it possible to have (free of charge) some CDs and some newsletters and some books to promote FreeBSD at my University? If you need a ufficial University request for the materials I can let you have one.

If you run tar -tvf /dev/rst0 against the tape the drive responds and gives you the files up to the point the previous error occurred and reports a unexpected EOF tape error... I thought perhaps this might be a buffer overrun error ...I was wondering if someone may have run into this problem...

Or get a faster SCSI card) Note I am testing with both 90 meter and 120 meter tapes... error seems to occurred about 5 min into tar....

I know I could simply skip X-win from the CD installer, and install the binaries manually - but I shouldn't HAVE to. ;v) Regards, - Mike -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael Borowiec -- mikebo@tellabs.com -- Tellabs Operations, Inc.

Everytime fsck cannot find the inode it stops and I do a "clri " to restart fsck -y. This seems to take for ages since the system is on 7x9GB (SCSI). My questions: 1. Is there any other way to do this in the first place? 2. Since the loss of inodes is in general a bad thing is there a way to determine why? I watched the HD-LEDs when doing the crli and everytime two HDs blinked. One of them was always ID 0. Since I have no knowledge so far how the ccd organizes the disks, I would like to know if this is normal. Or does this indicate that there is something wrong with the HD on ID 0? 3. My guess is that the disk is silently mapping out bad sectors and this causes the FS to break. Is there a way to take a look at the bad sector table of a SCSI HD under FreeBSD or determine somehow that sectors got mapped out? As far as I remember SCSI maps out silently and you cannot get access to that table.

If you have a copy of "The Complete FreeBSD", second edition (http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/bsdbook2.htm), look on pages 64 and 65.

Unless you preprocess everything with a2ps, if you print text to the raw queue it gets stairstepped. I use the queues all the time and they work great (unless someone is using the printer when it doesn't accept connections, but that's a fault with port 9100 too). If you really really hate it, you'll have to install and use LPRng to direct it to print to the higher port. LPRng builds cleanly on FreeBSD and is available from ftp://ftp.astart.com/pub/LPRng. The header can be turned off in the JetDirect configuration -- telnet to the printer to enter it.

You might be able to hack it using an install script that takes care of the initial setup (or at least guides you through it). The install script manpage is in the sysinstall sources; you can fetch it from http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/release/sysinstall/sysinstall.8. Run it through `groff -Tascii -mdoc sysinstall.8 | more' to read, and/or copy to /usr/local/man/man8 and use `man sysinstall'. > What I have in mind would be auto-generating a > tape image of the model system using some combination of dump, tar, > and dd, along with parameter blocks containing information for > fdisk/mkfs/format.

I have installed 2.2.5-RELEASE on an Ultra DMA Western Digital 4.3GB and it went pretty slick. Of course, this is not to say that there aren't a few features that aren't being used effectively because the driver may be treating the disk as Fast ATA which I understand (probably wrongly) is what Ultra DMA is based on. -Jeff Transformers - They're more than meets the eye!

Reply-To: gkshenaut@ucdavis.edu Date: Tue, 24 Feb 1998 16:16:14 -0800 From: Greg Shenaut Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Please excuse me while I mumble to myself, on the off chance that someone else might have a useful response. On the subject of roll-in installation, is there any easy way to clear all of the free blocks in a filesystem? It seems to me that if you are just going to clone one system from another one via a tape, it might not really be necessary to use a dump or tar format tape--instead, some kind of raw image of the disk, block by block, might be easier and faster. While of course it would be possible to just use dd to the tapedrive, some degree of compression wouldn't hurt, and it would help a great deal to achieve it if all of the blocks which aren't in use were cleared to zero on the drive instead of containing random garbage. Then filtering the full drive (excluding the bad block table, if there is one, of course) through compress or perhaps gzip and onto the tape would give you the image you need, with little wasted tape. (Apparently gzip becomes slightly confused above 2 GB.) One tremendous advantage of this method over a more intelligent method is that if there are several operating systems or filesystem types on the physical drive, they would all be cloned along with the unix filesystems; not to mention that the intelligence needed to recover the data onto the physical disk would be much less. So, is there any way which already exists to clear all of the unused blocks in a (quiescent) filesystem? (I don't think this would be hard to write, but maybe someone has already done it.) Note that for your standard FAT filesystems, there are several programs around which reorganize the disk and zero out the unused space all in a contiguous block. Running in some sort of DOS or Windows mode, you should run one of these first. BTW, I suppose the simplest, but perhaps maximally painful way to do this is to dump the filesystem, zero the entire partition, make a new filesystem, and restore the tape--I would prefer to avoid this if possible. -Greg To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Feb 24 16:31:00 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA17083 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 24 Feb 1998 16:31:00 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from allegro.lemis.com (allegro.lemis.com [192.109.197.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA17020 for ; Tue, 24 Feb 1998 16:30:46 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from grog@lemis.com) Received: from freebie.lemis.com (freebie.lemis.com [192.109.197.137]) by allegro.lemis.com (8.8.7/8.8.5) with ESMTP id LAA10325; Wed, 25 Feb 1998 11:00:41 +1030 (CST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.8.8/8.8.7) id LAA19238; Wed, 25 Feb 1998 11:00:41 +1030 (CST) (envelope-from grog) Message-ID: <19980225110040.46733@freebie.lemis.com> Date: Wed, 25 Feb 1998 11:00:40 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: Rod Ebrahimi Cc: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: using tape References: <000b01bd4183$91700200$0c8443d1@ip012.directhost.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.89i In-Reply-To: <000b01bd4183$91700200$0c8443d1@ip012.directhost.net>; from Rod Ebrahimi on Tue, Feb 24, 1998 at 04:23:17PM -0800 WWW-Home-Page: http://www.lemis.com/~grog Organization: LEMIS, PO Box 460, Echunga SA 5153, Australia Phone: +61-8-8388-8286 Fax: +61-8-8388-8725 Mobile: +61-41-739-7062 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Tue, 24 February 1998 at 16:23:17 -0800, Rod Ebrahimi wrote: >> On Tue, 24 February 1998 at 14:54:35 -0800, Rod Ebrahimi wrote: >>> I have a sony 8mm tape drive how should I go about using it on my freebsd >>> systems? >> >> I presume this is a SCSI DDS drive. >> >> 1.

What I've done is to make one installation, copy a disk image to tape, and then restore it to other disks, thus creating a complete clone of the first machine. This sounds like it would fit your bill. The problem was, I did it under BSD/OS, and I ran into trouble when I tried it on FreeBSD a couple of years ago. I don't know whether it's since possible, but there are some problems related to writing to a raw disk. You could try it. To back up a complete disk to tape, # dd if=/dev/rsd0c of=/dev/rst0 bs=32b To restore: # dd of=/dev/rsd0c if=/dev/rst0 bs=32b If it doesn't work, please tell me and I'll try to work out why not.

Add "mx#0" to your /etc/printcap, something like this: lp|local line printer:\ :sh:\ :mx#0:\ :lp=/dev/lpt0:\ :sd=/var/spool/output/lpd:\ :lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\ :if=/usr/local/libexec/psif: See "man printcap" for more details. "mx" defaults to 1000 BUFSIZ (1024 byte) blocks, or just under 1 megabyte (1024 x 1024 would be one megabyte). Quite small for postscript printers. Quite large for plain text dot matrix printers. Setting mx to zero limits the print size to the free space on your spool volume (if the file has to be copied before printing). Forgot if lpr/lpd copies first, or can print from the original file as the SYSV lp system can. I do remember if you are printing from Netscape that lpr is reading standard input and has to save the file in the spool directory, /var/spool/output/lpd in the above example. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

This sounds like it would fit your bill. Yes, I thought of this, but hadn't tried it because I have no tape drive which can hold a whole disk image. Maybe I should just go out and buy one, but I am exploring trying to zero all free blocks to reduce random bytes and then writing out the image using a compression filter. BTW, in an earlier message I asked whether there was any way to zero all the free blocks in a file system, and, just minutes after sending the message, I realized that a three or four line C program which opens a file for writing, writes zeroes to it until a write error occurs, then unlinks it, should do the trick. In fact, "dd if=/dev/zero of=foobar bs=32k ; rm foobar" would be even easier. Then, just follow this with "dd if=/dev/rXd0 | compress -c > /dev/rst0" or whatever. -Greg To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Feb 24 17:20:24 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA25878 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 24 Feb 1998 17:20:24 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from citytel1.citytel.net (citytel1.citytel.net [204.244.99.66]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id RAA25812 for ; Tue, 24 Feb 1998 17:20:08 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kwoody@citytel.net) Received: from mybsd.net (citytelprct108.citytel.net [204.244.99.139]) by citytel1.citytel.net (8.8.8/8.8.5) with ESMTP id RAA28914 for ; Tue, 24 Feb 1998 17:20:42 -0800 (PST) Received: from mybsd.net (mybsd.net [192.168.0.2]) by mybsd.net (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id RAA10743 for ; Tue, 24 Feb 1998 17:04:33 -0800 (PST) Date: Tue, 24 Feb 1998 17:04:31 -0800 (PST) From: Kwoody To: freebsd-questions Subject: news stuff...

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I'm sorry that this is not a FreeBSD question per se, but it does involve the FreeBSD mailing list community. A while back (maybe 9 months), I subscribed to a bunch of the FreeBSD mailing lists. Several months ago, I decided to quit receiving the messages and "unsubscribed". I received a notification from the Majordomo server saying that I was indeed unsubscribed. Periodically, since then, I magically get re-subscribed, almost like someone is restoring the subscription list from a backup. Every time, I re-unsubscribe (successfully). Is there any way someone who runs the lists could look and make sure that I don't get re-subscribed again? If this is not the right place to ask this question, please point me in the right direction.

Booteasy is a pretty old program and not very smart. I don't think you can edit it. You might try osbs instead, you can name each partition what you want. You can find it in the tools directory.

I just bought what is supposedly a UDMA 5.1 GB drive. I have a PCI IDE controller that supports UDMA. I installed a file system on it just fine. I've been using it for /usr/local for a while now with no problem.

Is there really a problem with UDMA and FreeBSD, or is it just certain drives/controllers?

Been through the installation via the auto boot-up on the CD Rom. I start adjusting the kernal removing conflicting driversand keeping only what is installed on my system. I have a 440LX chipset, so I have two IDE controller ports. The first port has two hard drives, which read fine. The second has a Sony CDU621-D CD Rom and is installed as a slave (it will not install as a master, I've tried from the boards bios). So Iget through the entire set up of the install program and it asks which media do I wish to install from. I choose CD Rom and it says, "CD ROM not detected". Any ideas? I've tried different driver configurations, I like the OS, or at least something I'd like to try.

First, while I still had my new RAM in, I got a number of odd faults. Namely, I would get something like this: Fatal trap 12 page fault while in kernel mode Fault code: supervisor read, page not present. [snip] Panic: page fault. And the kernel would reboot the system. Since I got these rather frequently, but I don't anymore, I suspect it is a problem with the new RAM. Either that, or - as I suspect it may be - it means I need to change the size of my /proc partition. First of all, is this the case? And second, if it is, how does one _do_ this nondestructively?

He also mentioned that the adaptec RAID controller that I have will probably not be supported by FreeBSD. My question is do you know of anyone who has successfully implemented hardware driven RAID 5, and if so, what hardware/drivers are they using. At this stage, cost is not important so if there is any hardware that will work I would love to know about it.

Do you come from a System V.3 background? The disk cache is managed dynamically by the virtual memory system. If you're interested, start the program top (there's a man page). >>> And second, if it is, how does one _do_ this nondestructively? > > This still stands. Either way, I need to find out how to do this when I > _do_ manage to upgrade with some working RAM. There's no way to influence it externally short of rewriting the virtual memory system, and I can't think of any reason to do that. FreeBSD has one of the best virtual memory systems you will find anywhere.

I have figured out the majority of the installation for an FTP installation. I cannot however get the hostname resolved after I connect via PPP in term. I attribute this to an incorrect PPP setup on my part, but i can't seem to figure it out.

You have to edit /etc/rc.conf (FreeBSD 2.2.2, 2.2.5), and set the variable "nisdomainname" at the beginning of the network subsection. Then go down to the NIS options and set the variable "nis_client_enable" to "YES", and leave the others unchanged. Then you have to edit the passwd database (using "vipw") and append the following record: +::::::::: Also, edit /etc/host.conf and uncomment the line "nis": this enables hosts queries to NIS. -- JM ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Jose M.

I was reading the installation instructions, and it looks as though I need to have MSDOS 6.x installed in my computer before I can install freebsd. The problem is, I have WindowsNT installed, and I didn't see anything in the book about a windowsnt install. I have a Dell 233PII with a 4.3G maxtor Drive(IDE) and would like to use both operating systems. If I must, I will get rid of NT and install win95 in it's place, but I need to have windows on my system. I need your advice. Please e-mail me at the above box. I am really excited about learning unix and hope I can use my machine for this. I don't really care for NT or 95 but need to have compatability for business purposes. Please help.

The scheme is fairly conventional: the DNS round robin would spread the web requests between two machines, mapping to the respective IP alias addresses. In the same time the two machines, using simple shell scripts, monitor each others pinging to the primary ip addresses. As soon as one of the two machines doesn't reply to the ping, it's assumed to be faulty by the other still alive, that immediately temporarily install the Ip alias corresponding to the faulty machine. As soon as the first machine comes back from outage, the second one de-install the temporary Ip alias. My question is: --------------- Is anywhere available a ready set of scripts that can do the simple job I want? Thanks for any help - Marco M.

I have just made some advances on my KDE problems, and it's very surprising that someone could run the KDE 3.1b port. Indeed, the ld.so error message about kaudioserver's reference to "_ftok" is related to the libcompat library. However, there isn't any libcompat.so.xx shared library. The problem comes from the fact that kaudioserver _is_not_ linked with the static libcompat.a. The file Makefile.in at directory kdebase/kaudio needs a slight change, adding -lcompat to the list of libraries: ----------- BEGIN PATCH ---------- *** Makefile.in~ Sun Feb 1 01:27:19 1998 --- Makefile.in Wed Feb 25 12:26:04 1998 *************** *** 131,137 **** INCLUDES = $(all_includes) # kdecore for usleep fake !

Probably the system with the `#2' was built two times with `config -n' which doesn't blow away the ``version'' file (and the other files) in the ../../compile/kernel_name directory. If it works (may not always), the subsequent `make' is usually a lot faster as there is less compiling to perform. -- Regards, Norman C.

I've not actually needed to, and consequentially not tried, tried re-assigning IRQs if that's what you mean. Though I've had no trouble with the (PCI part of the) PCI devices: EtherExpress Pro, both SCSI channels, USB and miscelaneous on-board chips. > Does SMP work properly also? As yet, I've had no problems - but I've not attempted putting a major load on the box...

The box was a little tempremental on boot, but I think it's the monitor / video card comination - basically, the system would hang if I switched on with the video cable plugged in. It's fine if I power up with out the cable (and re-attach shortly after) and on warm/cold boots.. it's just the initial power on..???!?!?

Now, we found that we can get the lower 12 serial ports working well, but the upper 4 ports will not work at all. Is there any known problems with this board or with the driver? Plugging into one of the top four ports, on either board, causes problems with the serial interrupts and can hang the port of the attached host.

I have a label in the .linkup file with myaddr and specify "add 210.210.210.201 255.255.255.255 INTERFACE" as the route I want to add. The netstat shows the route added as 210.210.210.201/32 with flags of UGSc. Attempts to reach the destination results in "Address family not supported by protocol family". If I don't add the route via .linkup and just add it manually after the link is up I have no problems reaching the host. I noticed that the flags are UHS. I'm assuming that I have no problems since it's added as a host route?? Any help is appreciated!

This is common and prety easy. Unfortunately routing through a 386 is pretty slow, but since you're going over a slow link you probably won't notice it :) > The system I have in place right now for getting my computer withought > the phone line to access the internet is a wingate proxy server which is > OK for accessing web pages, but I can not play games over the net on my > computer behind the firewall because it is not directly connected, it > only sends its requests to the proxy server.

This depends if your ISP allows that. Most don't, they only grant one IP per dialup line. You'll need to run an address translator on the FreeBSD box to get the homenet on. Just give ppp the -alias option to set this up. > Ok the next use for FreeBSD is to have my friend dial up to my > FreeBSD server/router, and get BSP to route the requests back and forth > amongst the two computers on the network and the computer connected over > the telephone line so it is just like a miny internet.

No problem; you only have to set up the dialup line and the route. I suggest using pppd for dialup lines, it understands them better than user ppp. You may want to install mgetty to help you control the modem in an intelligent way. I suggest referencing http://www.freebsd.org to answer your questions; if you have any more or need clarification please contact us.

You need to grab src/usr.sbin/sendmail/cf from the config file, add in the stuff in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf.additions, rebuild & reinstall the .cf, and restart sendmail. That will keep that stuff down. Or, add in the sendmail.cf.additions verbatim to your sedmail.cf, just cut off the LOCAL_WHATEVER tags from the top and bottom of the file.

I installed FreeBSD-2.2.5 over the net using one of the ether cards supported in the PAO kernel floppy image; it's the basic 3com PCMCIA card, which PAO recognized as device zp0. Haven't gotten far in playing with it though to be much help. I imagine you could do it with a SCSI attached CD, if you've got one of the supported scsi cards, like the adaptec.

The WildWind upsd has a generic framework for adding additional UPS drivers. I think it would be advantageous to have a one-stop-shop for a FreeBSD ups daemon since Alexey has done all the hard work in setting up the framework, system bits, etc. and it's quite well designed and layed out. Plus it's infintely flexible with the config file.

Hehe. Okay. No problem. I had just assumed that since one needs to partition for swap space when installing FreeBSD, that such partitioning is static, rather than dynamic. Anyway, I just wanted to thank everyone on the list who helped me out. :) I've managed to recover gracefully from this, and everything is working, now that it's back the way it used to be.

Once again omit length and density options as -B overrides those. You want to be conservative so you don't hit the end of media else you will get the same errors.

I am a beginner at UNIX, so please bear with me as I ask the following question: I have FreeBSD 2.2.2 installed on my P166, and I have a 3C590 (or something like that) ethernet card and a US Robotic 56K modem. I have gotten to the point where I can setup the ethernet card to work and the modem to work, but not at the same time. I have a modem dial-up account with a local ISP, and a three computer LAN at home. I use fake IP addresses for the LAN at home, and my ISP dynamically assigns theirs. How can I set both the modem and the ethernet to work concurrently so that the fake IP address of the NIC can coexist with the dynamically allocated IP from my ISP modem connection? I know this is possible with Win95. For example, I can have my ethernet card (with the fake 209.129.21.1 address) talk to the LAN while using the modem (with dynamic IP address) to talk to my ISP. Thank you for taking your time to read this. This problem probably can a simple solution, but I am a beginner, so please tell it to me. Thanks ahead of time! I appreciate it.

The problem is after that no prompt for commit all this actions; start inmediatly to try to install the system but say: The file system is Full! many times.... I Think is because all actions choosed are not writed. I need Help, I can't install because that, do you have an idea what i do wrong or i forgot?

Well, if you actually installed the system, it will change the active partition to make sure it's set to the proper partition. Simply booting a DOS boot floppy with fdisk on it will fix it. > Now I know that you will say " You chose the SNAP version - so you are > taking your 'life' into your own hands" and to a certain extent you are > correct, but quite frankly I think that a standard install should go > ahead without issue, and I would expect that the install tools would be > pretty standard and error free by now. That is a lot harder than it looks because of the various quality levels of PC hardware. Plus, sysinstall is the classic definition of code spaghetti and often doesn't get polished until just before install time. We all wish it was better but writing installers isn't as easy as it looks -- trust me, I've tried.

We really need to see the scsi and tar errors generated, their exact text preferably. SCSI system errors should show up in the system log /var/log/messages.

And yet the handbook said this option was outdated?! It helps to remember that you can run tcpdump on the ppp interface :) The Handbook refers to the kernel option PROXYARP which is deprecated. The Handbook needs some updating, esp. in the supported hardware area. I'm going to tackle this soon. I'll comb the ppp stuff after that.

HELP ! If you swap the drives, you must modify /etc/fstab or you'll get dropped to single-user mode when the filesystem mounts fail. Also make sure that /dev/wd1* exists. I would suggest making the new disk Windoze and leaving FreeBSD as-is.

At a guess, you're running at 8 bits per pixel (total of 256 colours) and have something on the root display which uses up most of them. If you start X without a backdrop, you should no longer have this problem. What are you using for the screen shots? I use xv, and I haven't run into this problem under those circumstances.

Here are the important specs Motherboard: QDI-P5I430TX-250 Titanium IB BIOS: Award BIOS 4.51PG QDI Version 1.3S CPU: 200MHz MMX Pentium SCSI controller: NCR 53C825 IDE drive(s): 1 - 425 MB Western Digital SCSI drive(s): 2 - 730 MB Quantum Lightnings 1 - 1.06 GB Conner The way my system was set up before the upgrade was that the IDE drive had the OS-BS beta boot manager installed, and from there I could boot either OS/2 on the IDE drive, or FreeBSD on the first SCSI drive. This worked great. Now though, if I try to boot FreeBSD from the SCSI drive with the onboard PCI-IDE controller turned on, I see the message: Error: D:0x81 C:0 H:0 S:0 Even if I set the system to boot from SCSI first, or turn off the IDE drive, the message shows up (changing 0x81 to 0x80). If I turn off the PCI-IDE controller, FreeBSD happily boots from the hard drive. Looking through the code for the bootblocks, it looks like there is something wrong reading data from the SCSI disk via BIOS but only when the IDE controller is turned on. Has anyone else seen problems like this?

Inetd is sometimes called the `super server daemon' since it listens on ports listed in /etc/inetd.conf for connections, and when they come in, it starts the program specified on the port's line on that port. portmapper is used for RPC (Remote Procedure Call) services to attach a service to a network port. Hint: Type `man ' to find out what does.

Unfortunately, I don't have enough diskspace for a new parition to buildworld too and call it a new root. Any hints, suggestions, etc.? Any particular steps I must take? (I will build the new kernel before booting of course ;)). Oh, and do I have to recompile X? (I've got the sources local, so I'd rather recompile than pull a binary release off the net, but do I really have to?).

I can't see that the ISP is sending anything after I send my password; it just hangs up the phone, quickly. The other POPs on the same ISP send a bunch of PPP binary stuff, as expected.

Who has the DNS server? You'd want to do this from the DNS server and have it ping both; when one quit, swap in a new zone file, bump the serial number, kill -HUP named, and maybe send a page or some other notification that one of the servers went belly-up.

A DOS boot floppy with FDISK on it is a recommended backup step though. You can install straight from the CDs. Of course, you must have free partition space; FreeBSD requires it's own slice and cannot install to NTFS or FAT or into any other partition except it's own type.

Nope; simply run sshd on the server then use ssh to connect to it. Nothing uses telnet except for humans. :) I know of two machines connected this way and I feel much better about logging into them since I know my password won't be snooped. I try to use ssh wherever possible.

(pun intended) Well, it would be really odd for an old 486 to have PCI. :-) Do any IBMs outside of the Aptiva series even _have_ PCI slots?

Can someone help me out please? pine's imap insists on trying rsh first; if you have people on remote via pine they may be using that. Some could be using ssh too.

There's more to this than it seems; ISA cards that do DMA need bounce buffering and that takes time. A PCI ethernet card can beat a ISA card any day of the week purely on bus bandwidth.

The script would print out any differences in versions, presumably because a new version of the port has been released. This would be a quick way to see what ports could be upgraded on a box. My question is this: Does such a script already exist? Just wondering...if not, I'll start on it. :) Bradley P.S. -- Please CC me on responses as I am not on -questions.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have a FreeBSD box running 2.2.5-RELEASE which is happy enough to dial up two ISPs, but a third, which has a Livingston PortMaster-2e on the other end, just won't connect properly with my FreeBSD box. Connecting to the PM-2e with Win95/DUN or MacOS/FreePPP works fine. It's only ppp in FreeBSD that's having a problem. Is it possible that something in the PM-2e configuration or in the remote (all static) routing tables might be causing difficulty? The authentication used in the Windows and MacOS tests was the same user/passwd pair used in the FreeBSD tests. I am not using IP aliasing. The FreeBSD box has just one ed0 and one tun0. The ppp.conf looks pretty much like this: default: set device /dev/cuaa0 set speed 115200 disable pred1 deny pred1 disable lqr deny lqr set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" ATE1Q0 OK-AT-OK \\dATDT\ \T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" set redial 10 3 set log +connect xyz: set authname myname set authkey mypass set phone myphone set timeout 900 accept pap deny chap set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 set openmode active This is pretty much straight out of the tutorial. After I dialup and authenticate with ppp, my netstat -rn looks like: Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire default 192.168.1.32 UGSc 2 0 tun0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 0 2 lo0 192.168.1 192.168.1.254 UGSc 0 4 tun0 192.168.1.32 192.168.1.254 UH 3 0 tun0 192.168.2 link#1 UC 0 0 192.168.2.2 0:aa:0:c2:87:35 UHLW 3 4905 ed0 928 192.168.2.3 0:c0:93:0:3b:ce UHLW 2 157 lo0 192.168.2.128 8:0:3e:1d:33:19 UHLW 0 551 ed0 987 192.168.2.255 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff UHLWb 2 42 ed0 Here, 192.168.2.3 is the machine trying to make the connection. 192.168.1.254 is the address assigned by the PM-2e. 192.168.1.32 is the address of the PM-2e. This looks pretty much identical with the other ISPs which work fine (and are incidentally using FreeBSD, and probably PortMasters too). I'm confused. What am I overlooking here? I have control of the PortMaster-2e at the other end, since it's my company's equipment, so if there's something in there that I may need to adjust, I can do that. I've never seen such a problem with the ppp in FreeBSD before, this must be something obvious. Sigh. Oh yeah. I can ping the machines on the other side just fine. But I can't reach them with nslookup, telnet, etc. I have the firewall software installed on the FreeBSD box trying to connect but it's set to "open" (and it is open). Pointers are much appreciated. This is my first experience with all of this equipment at once. I did try a static host route through the PM-2e for the IP address assigned by the PM-2e, but this didn't do anything. Didn't think it would. Why would Windows and MacOS work fine but not FreeBSD? Wah! A bug in my MUA causes news.announce.newusers font to be sent to beneficiaries and senders of UCE/SPAM. @ mcs.net Wishes are like dishes.

Library). I have been running it on -current for a long time. A friend runs it on 2.2.5. It's been a long time since I installed it. As I recall, I was never able to get their installer to work. I did the following: simply copied the applix directory hierarchy from the CD to /usr. So I had /usr/applix. I then made a softlink from /usr to /opt. I copied the 'applix' executable to my path someplace. This also works if you mount the CD someplace and link /opt to the right place on the CD. Then you just run applix. It gives me some bogus message but I just ignore it. If you do copy the CD to your hard drive (which gave subtantially better performance for me than running on my 12X CDROM) you can delete the non-english language support, if you are so inclined, by simply removing the appropriate language related subdirectory. -- Brian@Litzinger.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Feb 26 03:02:29 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id DAA29839 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 26 Feb 1998 03:02:29 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from proxyb2.san.rr.com (proxyb2-atm.san.rr.com [204.210.0.11]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id DAA29829 for ; Thu, 26 Feb 1998 03:02:26 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Studded@san.rr.com) Received: from san.rr.com (dt050ndd.san.rr.com [204.210.31.221]) by proxyb2.san.rr.com (8.8.7/8.8.8) with ESMTP id DAA18764; Thu, 26 Feb 1998 03:01:40 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <34F54B92.7E612E1B@san.rr.com> Date: Thu, 26 Feb 1998 03:01:38 -0800 From: Studded Organization: Triborough Bridge & Tunnel Authority X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.04 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 2.2.5-STABLE-0223 i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: ngunther@ricochet.net CC: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: BSD Perf Tools?

I was also sued by Chief Julian Fantino of the London Police for liable and am under judges orders (Justice Brown, London) to not discuss the issue on the internet ;-) For the last few years I have been on a disability pension. However, I have not wasted my time. I have been busy developing and implementing information and infrastructure warfare procedures which use the internet as a delivery mechanism. Order M-618 and Mr. Fantino’s civil proceeding made me infamous in Canada and I attracted the attention of a Mr. Mark Savary one of the owners of 544591 Alberta Ltd. (a.k.a. The Adult Super Store) . He wanted to know how I was driving the police and the system crazy. I told him and he made me a proposal. I would like to add that I later found out the corporation was associated with biker gangs - that however did not bother me. I was offered access to resources to further my research into electronic warfare and also provided with a budget to influence the civil service. During this period I was not paid, but I was promised that should my work show results I would be retired on an executive salary, including a house. I was provided with a dental plan, prepaid sex bunnies and a generous drug plan. During this association I became increasingly involved in integrating the corporations operations and accounting systems and was always asked my advice. Prior to disability I had been an investment and venture capital banker. My references are available online as if files at: http://iwar.eu.org/baptista/ and are numbered PERSONA1.gif to PERSONA5.gif. I provided the corporation with advice on laundering funds and depleting general revenues in order to avoid payment of sales tax and GST. This included setting up international vehicles for transferring funds - a copy of the articles of one such corporation are available at. http://iwar.eu.org/baptista and are numbered CORP1.gif to CORP3.gif Other contributions involved a info-war attack against the Ontario Film Review Board. This included setting up paid moles within the ministry. Mr. Savary even recruited the lead investigator of the OFRB - Ms. Suzanne Lazote. It was fun. I also assisted in more conventional undertakings, web and network development, researching franchise agreements and other legal instruments, setting up accounting standards and dealing with the provincial and federal tax departments. I feel I have kept my part of the bargain during the two year period we agreed to. However, when I asked Mr. Savary to fulfill his part of the deal, strange things started to happen. He claimed poverty. I found this difficult to believe because I have the corporate records which support $150,000 in embezzlement. The relationship deteriorated and I now find myself having contributed a great deal and have nothing to show for it. Mr. Savary also hired two strong men to throw me out of my home (it was in Mr. Savary’s house). They went away when I pointed out the corporate archives had been backed up in Rio and HongKong as I had forseen these potential difficulties. Since I was never employed, nor received benefits as an employee, do I have a claim to unpaid wages - or a tort in a contractual obligation? There are no written agreements, but a lot of witnesses. And if I do have a case, would you accept this on a pro bono. I will raise the funds to pay expenses and the action would be commenced in Toronto.

Is the recent advent of BSD NFS Flock'ing stable enough to be used in a commercial environment? What software will I need to use (if any) to use a RAID array on a BSD box?

Thanks A port is in the works, but far from being ready. Watch the freebsd-alpha mailing list if you have any interest in helping out. If you want a BSD system for an Alpha, you may want to try NetBSD (http://www.netbsd.org).

I am interested in getting the ISO/OSI related sources (/usr/src/sys/netiso directory I presume, possibly with other files) so that I could build a kernel with OSI stack support in it. Is it possible to get the missing OSI stack related files ? If yes how ?

Since you can't seem to find any non-mmx processors out there anymore. -Mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Feb 26 07:18:53 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id HAA02409 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 26 Feb 1998 07:18:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ix.netcom.com (sil-wa2-09.ix.netcom.com [206.214.137.41]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id HAA02401 for ; Thu, 26 Feb 1998 07:18:48 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from tomdean@ix.netcom.com) Received: (from tomdean@localhost) by ix.netcom.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) id HAA05064; Thu, 26 Feb 1998 07:18:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from tomdean) Date: Thu, 26 Feb 1998 07:18:20 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <199802261518.HAA05064@ix.netcom.com> From: Thomas Dean To: tsubasas@cosmos.ne.jp CC: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-reply-to: <199802230817.RAA02631@mail.cosmos.ne.jp> (tsubasas@cosmos.ne.jp) Subject: Re: =?ISO-2022-JP?B?GyRCPEFMZBsoSg==?= Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Can you repost using English or Romanji?

I have two machines: The first is FreeBSD v2.2.5 host with FTP and Apache services (Pro 200 RAM80Mb ) The second is Windows95 TCPIP client. The problem is that the reply from FTP,telnet, Apache services is too long and slow, about 1-2 minutes. Then, after connect is istablished, all is OK! The PING results are: Reply from Myhost: bytes=32 time=1ms TTL=255 Reply from Myhost: bytes=32 time=1ms TTL=255 There are no network Erorrs And what is interesting, this situation is the same for Microsoft Information Server v3.0 Novell Web Server Only Lotus DOMINO Server is working perfectly. The reply is very FAST. I wonder, is it something wrong with my FreeBSD configuration. (I use the default parameters after installation FreeBSD) Are there any methods to optimize the TCPIP stack or to find out is my FreeBSD host correctly configured? Thanks in advance.

Well, I don't know if upgrading from a 166 to a 200 is going to make any difference at all. mmx gives you some special floating point instructions and I don't think that it will make much difference. I doubt that the kernel would even use a pile of those instructions. For the cost, you should look at a more significant upgrade than that because you prolly won't see much performance change for the cost. -Mike> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Feb 26 09:27:03 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA19625 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 26 Feb 1998 09:27:03 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from f155.hotmail.com (f155.hotmail.com [207.82.251.34]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA19619 for ; Thu, 26 Feb 1998 09:27:00 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ikaros_net@hotmail.com) Received: (from root@localhost) by f155.hotmail.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) id JAA06324 for freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG; Thu, 26 Feb 1998 09:26:30 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <199802261726.JAA06324@f155.hotmail.com> Received: from 147.13.200.1 by www.hotmail.com with HTTP; Thu, 26 Feb 1998 09:26:30 PST X-Originating-IP: [147.13.200.1] From: "Martin Von_Schantz" To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Partitioning Content-Type: text/plain Date: Thu, 26 Feb 1998 09:26:30 PST Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have a few questions regarding the built in "make a slice" partition program in Freebsd. 1. Is it possible to make a partition without destroying all data stored on the disk originally? I have about 200Mb left on an 1Gb drive. 2.

This system is setup to be a majordomo list server (using bulkmailer for sending) and has no other function. I have installed smap and smapd from the Firewall toolkit and for the most part everything is working great. I have recently noticed that the server is not able to receive or send to certain hosts consistently. I did a quick check and the mail sitting in the queue is trying to go to MS Exchange servers (two different builds) mostly. I have not check to see what is running at all the sites that it cannot send to. The server is also having difficulty accepting messages from a few hosts (the one that send my mail, running Exchange). Smap fails with the following error (names have been changed to protect the innocent!): Feb 26 13:00:42 afirm smap[3821]: host=bad.mail.server/xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx bytes=0 from= to= Feb 26 13:00:42 afirm smap[3821]: SMTP QUIT with no message bad.mail.server/xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Can anyone tell me how to go about troubleshooting this problem? Some mail will get through, but others will not. Q2: I am running 2.2.5-RELEASE at home and am using it connect my home network to the internet through a dialup with my provider (I am using ppp -auto -alias). Everything is working great!!!!! I would, however, like to know the speed at which the modem connected. If there a utility that will tell me the connection speed when the modem connects?

I don't know what the problem is, but I can reproduce it easily on this machine (HP Vectra/XU 6/200). My diagnosis is that cron is allergic to Win95 :) Or maybe more accurately, this behavior seems to be related to the use of fbsdboot.exe To cause the problem: 1) boot Win95 into ms-dos mode. 2) boot freebsd using fbsdboot.exe 3) /sbin/reboot :goto 3 To get rid of the cron messages, all I have to do is do a hard reset (/sbin/halt then hit the reset or power switch) and then boot FreeBSD using the regular "BootEasy". This is more than a little strange. I can reproduce it very easily, so if anyone has any ideas, I'm willing to try them.

I've tried the different keyboards than come with the distribution but no one seems to fill my needs. Does any one knows how to set up such a keyboard, or has a definition file? I'm interested in doing this in character and X mode. Thanks for your time!

I notice on -questions that there is some current interest in this, and I was wondering if there is any particular recommendation on DPT model numbers? Are we talking about a PM3334UW-BB? I've briefly priced the single channel PCI Smartraid and it seems to go for around $1100. Is there anything cheaper? Is DPT that much better than an Adaptec 131? Would anyone be interested in writing a driver for the 131?

I have gotten "media error" several times on a couple of Micropolis 9 GB (MICROP 1991-27) disk drives. So, I ran scsiformat on both drives, with no reported errors. I then used /stand/ sysinstall to set up each drive as a single "C" partition. Finally, I tried to newfs the drives (e.g., "newfs -m 5 /dev/rsd3c"). Both drives failed this procedure, hanging the machine (or at least the SCSI bus) in the process. Specifically, newfs printed out a series of perhaps hals a dozen super-block numbers, then hung. I was able to ping the machine, but not to rlogin into it. Help? Yours, Rich Morin P.S. I *know* I should install 2.2.5, but I'm waiting for a lull in my other activities before I do this...

Are you sure that /etc/finger.msg exists? finger shawn@cpl.net will open a connection to port 79, and send the string "shawn" to what it thinks is fingerd.. of course, this is really cat. Cat then should spit /etc/finger.msg to the port, but instead it is reading stdin and spitting shawn back out. I'm stumped :) I have no idea why cat would ignore the argument that is being passed.

There is a vast number of ways depending on the setup of a system. It is _much_ easier to get if you already have an account. a) get the passwd file assuming it is not shadowed, run crack on it. b) if the passwd file is shadowed, there are still ways to get it, but they mostly involve holes that the administrator has not, or not yet closed. For example if they have the old version of suid perl, there is a script that will give you root privleges. c) another way is to run a packet sniffer, which dumps all the traffic on that ethernet to a file or whereever. They just need to sift through all the stuff and pick out the texts. This is very easy because the first let's say 200 bytes of each connection will usually start with username: password: you get the idea. there are many other ways to get passwords uncluding guessing. > 2) How could I as a security advisor advise a network administrator to cater > for this security problem. One important thing is to educate the users. Have them pick good passwords. Something like foobar is not a good password, nor is 555-2344, or julie. People who don't know any better commonly choose passwords like this. Take person X, he is going out with someone named Julie, and his phone number is 555-2344. Not hard to guess his password. If the cracker is able to get the passwd file they can run something called a dictionary crack on it. That involves going through the dictionary and trying permutations of words and numbers and trying them against the users. Someone with a bad password may match one of the program's guesses. A password like: 3%gP)3s would be a good one because it is not pronouncable, an english word it is not, hence there is little chance of a dictionary crack getting it. Also, if someone saw the 1st 3 characters, they couldn't guess the rest. Juli, if you knew the person would be an easy guess. To combat the problem of someone sniffing the password with a packet analyser, a program like ssh is a good thing. That encrypts the entire connection as well as a complex method of authentification to show that you are indeed connected to the machine you think that you are, not a clever imitation that is set up to grab the password. Those are just a few of the many things. I would suggest you get a book on it. One of the better ones I have seen is entitled: Firewalls and Internet Security: Repelling the wiley hacker.

OK, you picked a very deep subject. If you want to get into it, you should ask yourself a couple of questions. 1) What unix? (HPUX, AIX, Solaris, ...) If it is a commercial unix, they can come with proprietary security enhances (fixes) that you can get (buy). If it is a free unix, go with freebsd, or slackware if linux. 2) Local security, or network security. Obviously you are thinking of network security. There are fundamental questions regarding password aging that these question apply to, amung other things. > Can you please assist me with some answers to the following questions: I am a mere mortal concerning these matters, but I'll do my best to confuse you with my most intelligent sounding blither. > 1) What method(s) can a hacker use to intercept my password on a unix system > and the commands that could be used to achieve the interception. a) The interception is less than half of the worry. There are conditions where if you can cause files to be written by root proggies, there is a risk. Take a look at setuid root programs, and how they are programmed. If a setuid root program is not bullet proof, there is VERY BAD DANGER of someone on the system hacking root. Some C functions are considered unsafe for use in setuid programs by most security gurus. b) Imagine if someone tries to login as root, or tries to su, but they type in the password at the login prompt, and you have a failed login attempt by "" c) Of course you are aware of the dangers of typing your password over a network. To put it simply, you shouldn't. Use sshd/ssh. > 2) How could I as a security advisor advise a network administrator to cater > for this security problem. a). Look at CERT advisories, check your version of sendmail, look into /etc/securetty, limit usage of cron (cron.allow) b) Search yahoo or altavista or savvysearch for various hacking pages pertaining to the OS you're on. It's always a good start to see what the rest of the world sees too. c) And, don't run Win NT 4. Anyone who claims to be able to evaluate security on a system that allows for near infinite complexity (every file having ACL based permissions.) You can add any number of groups and people to a single file's ACL, and when taking into account the nature of nested group and user permissions also allowed, it is obfuscated at best. > 3)What steps in your opinion would I need to take to identify and repair the > possible damage assuming I had superuser(root) privelege to the server. Have good backups. That's it. Another thing with backups you might want to know, TAPES ARE SHIT. Always dupe your tapes for a serious data integrity.

If you would like to have your name removed from our mailing list, please advise. We are currently launching two new web sites dedicated to improving the way technical and scientific employers, recruiters, and potential candidates develop contacts, post resumes and network within their own specific discipline. These web sites will be the first on the world wide web to offer, candidates, companies and recruiters, the ability to do job specific, multi field searches of our database and get detailed data back rather than just a name. This will cut your search time dramatically! At this time, there is no charge for posting your resume or job description and we welcome your participation. Over the next several months, we will be initiating an intense marketing program that will notify every major university, organization, association and society of our time efficient, task effective service. We invite you to visit our sites and either post your resume or open job requisition. Of course, these sites are still in the early stages of development and we would appreciate any questions or comments you may have. Employers & Recruiters: We are accepting links and banners to your home pages. Please e-mail your request to: info@ajob4scientists.com and let us know which web site you'd be interested in.

I haven't had a chance to try it out yet, but from the web page, it sounds like there shouldn't be any problems compiling Mesa under FreeBSD/XFree86. Here's what the web page has to say about supported hardware: 3Dfx Voodoo: Cards based on the 3Dfx Voodoo chipset (such as Diamond Monster 3D and Orchid Righteous 3D) are supported under Linux and Windows 95. Look here for the latest info. This is the best supported 3-D hardware for Linux at this time. 3Dfx Voodoo Rush (rendering into window): Supported under Windows. Linux support is underway. GLINT-based boards: Look [at the web page] for the latest info. S3 Virge: Supported under Windows 95 since Mesa version 2.5. Cirrus Mondello: No longer supported- download Mesa 1.2.8 if you're interested in this driver.

Once you install the system you can add either ISC DHCP or WIDE DHCP Both have FreeBSD clients, I prefer ISC. For the installation you'll need to specify a static IP. Just choose one that is on the net but either not part of any DHCP pool or unlikely to be in use at the moment.

I've messed with it a bit, I haven't tried it yet on my 3dfs Vd card yet, but I was impressed with it's OpenGL compliance.. it was, of course horribly slow without hardware support.

Some Compaqs use 53c710 chips which we don't support. It may have a 53c875, though, which we can deal with. Easiest way to tell is to boot the boot floppy and see if it finds the adapter under the ncr driver.

The only way to tell is to get the CONNECT xxxxx line from the modem, and AFAIK chat doesn't support that.

Route IPX packets from one network to another.

It may have hit the bad blocks and the kernel got confused; the SCSI card may eventually notice it and try to unstick the system. If bad blocks are poking through, you need to verify that bad sector remapping is enabled; if it is, then you are probably going to have more problems.

The quintisential hacker's guidebook is ``The Design and Implementation of 4.4BSD'', available cheaply from Amazon.com or your favorite bookstore. Next is the source itself :) and a tutorial at http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/ddwg. Finally is the freebsd-hackers mailing list. Hope that helps, and enjoy!

I have an APC BackUPS 600 that my FreeBSD box is attached to. Back in the dark days when I ran Linux, I had a program called genpowerd, which, along with a custom-made cable, would initiate an automatic shutdown of my system in the event of a power failure. This has saved me on more than one occasion. Unfortunately, as I suspected, said program does not compile under FreeBSD. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a similar daemon for FreeBSD that will work with this UPS. The cable isn't a problem -- I can easily obtain either the "smart" or "simple" signaling cable for this particular UPS model, or I can custom-make a different cable.

It's not uncommon for ISPs to terminate the connection when the connection is idle for too long (mine does). What you need is to do a search from the mailing list for "stay connected". There are scripts that work. Usually it involves pinging a nearby site (or address) to tell if the connection is dropped. Call the script every 5 minutes and your connection should stay connected or be restored (either way). I believe it's in one of Mark Plummer's questions (or maybe answers). ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Search for mailing list archive using +mark +plummer should locate it.

When I try any of the audio ports, however, they don't seem to work. For example, when I tried running the "playmidi" program under the port collection, it would give me this error: "open /dev/sequencer: no such file or directory". Please advice me on what to do next.

Setting up the fbsd box was not a real chore, I've been able to work through all the issues thus far without too much a hassle, and I've learned alot. But I'm stumped on starting named. I'm running the named that comes with 2.2.1. When I attempt a named -b /etc/namedb/named.boot I get back "syntax error near ". General experience with my mistakes leads me to believe that the named.boot file has nothing to do with it, but I will reproduce a few lines here for fun: cache . named.root primary . localhost primary 127.in-... IP127 And so on. Netstat -r returns (snipped): (the phys interface is an NE2000, so the device is ed0) default fbsdbox UGSc 1 6 ed0 10/24 link#1 UC 0 0 10/24 UHLW 2 1601 lo0 I hope I've been brief without omitting too much. My main questions would be: is this network architecture viable? What might I be missing with named? I ktraced named but all it told me was that it didn't like named.boot. (Back to square one). Like I said I'm self-teaching me all this network stuff, so this is not mission critiical (thank ghod), but I want to learn. Thanks.

What I meant by "front end" is the Makefile for the port. You may already know this, so please, forgive me, but FreeBSD puts together ports in two ways: a front end that has a Makefile, patches, checksum, and description, and a distfile that is the actual source code. Download the "front end" from the http address, then untar it. Then cd to the directory it creates (after tar -xf), and type make all install. FreeBSD will fetch the source, compile it, then install it for you. Like I said, forgive me if you know this already. I must confess, I haven't tried out the upsd port yet. I'm still updating kde ;).

Snooping is Very Unethetical. If you want to do it, make sure you get clearence for it from above, if you don't want to risc your job or a lawsuit. Unless your users have been duely noticed about it when they got an account, and have been told that they may only do few, simple things... Instead, you might want to befriend the user in question, and have him help you discover security problems. Most likely he does not mean any harm, but just wants to go discovering. Thinking what is possible is legal. If it weren't allowed, you would have disabled it.

It then proceeds to do the bootup on BSD up until the 'Boot:' prompt. If left I assume it tries to mount root on the first drive (which it cant do as its a dos drive), then it panics and reboots. (these are my theories - i could be totally wrong!) Now from the options it gives at the Boot: promt, it looks as if i have to tell it to mount root on the second drive, which should be: 1:wd(2,a) However it wont let me type letters - printing as if the 'shift' key is held down. when i tap shift first its OK, but any options I type in (even just pressing enter for default, or -c for config), it ignores them and promts for Boot: again......

This also provides for reusing previous commands. (Reusing commands is a great tool for every user. My history is set to 2500 and it is invaluable.) The history file can be evaluated (and the user's actions recreated). An added bonus is that if the file is removed or emptied of its contents, you have an indication that the user may want to conceal what she is doing and that you may have a problem in the making.

Also, the 2940 is very, very, very, very, very picky about termination. So, 1) Check termination 2) Check termination 3) Check termination 4) hope for a lull and get up to 2.2.5 (though 2.2.6 is RSN or so Doug aka the Amazing email machine, tells us) 5) Just for kicks, check termination 6) Then make sure you have termination correct. -- Labor, n.: One of the processes by which A acquires property for B. -- Ambrose Bierce, "The Devil's Dictionary" To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Feb 27 06:21:43 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA25852 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 27 Feb 1998 06:21:43 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from r.scl.ameslab.gov (r.scl.ameslab.gov [147.155.137.127]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA25828 for ; Fri, 27 Feb 1998 06:21:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ghelmer@scl.ameslab.gov) Received: from demios.scl.ameslab.gov (demios.ether.scl.ameslab.gov [147.155.137.54]) by r.scl.ameslab.gov (8.8.5/8.8.3) with SMTP id IAA26068; Fri, 27 Feb 1998 08:20:56 -0600 (CST) Date: Fri, 27 Feb 1998 08:20:56 -0600 (CST) From: Guy Helmer To: Dinesh Pal cc: "freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG" Subject: Re: Logging User's activity In-Reply-To: <34F6DAEC.8DEED7F8@opentech.stpn.soft.net> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Fri, 27 Feb 1998, Dinesh Pal wrote: > One of my FreeBSd user is very creative .He always try to explore something new > on my servers .I want to log his all the commands entered by him without his > knowledge,So that i can check that later.Please advice. In contrast to the other schemes mentioned (turn on csh history, wrap his/her logins in "script", etc), something the user can't get around would be to turn on process accounting. Make sure the directory /var/account exists and set accounting_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf. After the system is restarted, each process will be logged in /var/account/acct at termination. You can use the command lastcomm(1) to review entries in this file, and you can limit the commands shown to those of the particular user by using "lastcomm username". The caveats to this method are that the parameters to the command are not kept and the command may not be what you think it is since process accounting merely logs the name, not the path, of the program (e.g., symlinks or personal programs that have the same name as a system executable may be misleading). IMHO, this is a more politically acceptable solution than the others since 1) you are effectively logging everyone's activities (not a bad idea, if you ever need to diagnose issues having to do with other problem users), and 2) you are not doing anything that directly targets this particular user. When I administered undergraduate timesharing systems, process accounting provided a simple way to uncover which users were executing hacker tools -- fortunately they didn't think to rename their executable from "hacker-toolname" to something innocuous like "ls", which would have foiled my forensic analysis :-) However, if your system is very busy and you don't have much disk space for /var, process accounting may fill your available disk space. Use with care.

I have a matsushita cdrom and in the docs it says my specific model number may have problems with finding the correct port. The documentation says to set the port equal to -1 but all i see is a hexadecimal port option. I talked to a few people about settting it to 0x300 but that did not werk either. The version i am trying to install is 2.2.5. The error it gives me is something like "There was no CD device found! Please try and run configure again." I have made sure that there were no conflict with my hard ware. If you could email back with a few ideas on how to go about and fix this problem i would appreciate it greatly.

I've already configured the tfpt, and the bootps servers, through inetd. The problem, (I beleive), lies in the EEPROM's on the network cards. The current cards have Novell Netware boot roms, and are currently booting from a Novell Network. Is there any way to make the FreeBSD server mimick the Novell, so as not to need to change the eeproms. The machines are owned by the school, and thus cannot be modified, as the Novell Network is still the only system the schoolboard wishes to use. On a second note, however, aside from the school, I run FreeBSD at home. I too would like to be able to remote boot a second machine. I've already set the machine to be able to accept boot clients, but again, I get the same errors from the Novell bootrom, "ERROR FINDING SERVER" to be exact. I do not mind changing the bootroms at home, because I do not use Novell, (howevere, the school wishes to make the machines inter-changable). To quickly summate, I need to know how the client side of the diskless booting operation works. If you do not know the information, but rather another place I could look to find out, could you please email me, with the regards to the url and/or contact to wich I can find out from. I am just now, sending a note of similar nature to Novell, inquiring about what there client-side must be like. I would like to, if at all possible, make a bootrom that will support both systems, however, if this is not possible, (I do not expect you to support Novell), but I would like any information you could send back to me please.

Here's my dillema... I have purchased an account for SMTP mail transfers with my local ISP. The domain for the local ISP is "wwa.com", with the mail relay as "mail.wwa.com". I have setup a PPP connection (which does work...quite nicely) as a dynamic IP address. The IP address is defined by the local ISP. The local ISP is using "bind" (8.1.1" and "smail" (latest version as well). They are not using "sendmail" at all. I have an account called "i3csgate". This account is a funnel (if you will) for all mail for my local domain "i3cs.com". The "i3cs.com" domain is a sub-domain of "wwa.com", but for mail only. That is, all mail directed to a target user (say "rsradvan@i3cs.com" or "infosupport@i3cs.com") is sent and stored (similar to the UUCP store-n-forward method) under the "i3csgate" account. At specific times of the day (usually every hour), my local system polls the "mail.wwa.com" mail relay. I've been testing if this has worked by having a ".fetchmailrc" configuration file defined under "/" as a "root" thing. It is should below: === /.fetchmailrc === poll mail.wwa.com proto pop3: no envelope no dns localdomains i3cs.com user i3csgate is * here smtphost i3cs.com smtpaddress mail.wwa.com fetchmail password blowme === EOF: /.fetchmailrc === I have recently acquired the latest version of "sendmail" (8.8.8) and "bind" (8.1.3?) and have configured them on my system. Additionally, I have acquired the "m4" macro compiler to generate the "sendmail.cf" file. I've reviewed your webpage on setting up "sendmail.cf" and have entered (as a macro) the following ".mc" file under "./cf/cf/i3cs.mc": === ./i3cs.mc === include(`../m4/cf.m4') VERSIONID(`i3cs.mc version 1.0') OSTYPE(bsd4.4)dnl FEATURE(nouucp)dnl MAILER(local)dnl MAILER(smtp)dnl Cwlocalhost Cwi3cs.com Cwmail.wwa.com MASQUERADE_AS(`i3cs.com')dnl FEATURE(allmasquerade)dnl FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)dnl FEATURE(nocanonify)dnl FEATURE(nodns)dnl define(SMART_HOST, `mail.wwa.com') DmmyISP.com define(`confDOMAIN_NAME',`wwa.com')dnl define(`confDELIVERY_MODE',`deferred')dnl === EOF: ./i3cs.mc === I have tried different methods to retrieve the mail. The local ISP recommends using the command "finger i3cs.com@mail.wwa.com" to get the mail. I've used that as well as "fetchmail --verbose --all --flush". I haven't setup the "fetchmail" to run as a background daemon because I haven't been entirely successful with establishing a clearly defined and consistent mail transfer.

Suddenly the system freezes for about 10 seconds and reboots. During the bootstrap the following message appears: bali daemon.alert savecore: reboot after panic: vinvalbuf: dirty bufs Now my question is: Is this the expected behaviour from umount? If you ask me why I do such a silly thing, it's because I mount my portable disk drive with amd. Then I start a timeconsuming job on this drive (in my case a tar from the network). After the default timeout of 5 minutes the amd unmounts the fs and the system crashes. I can reproduce this if you tell me. All that happens on a FreeBSD 2.2.5-STABLE system. Is this a bug (so I will send in a PR) or a feature?

In bind 8 there is a new option listen-on where you can specify the IP address that named should listen on for DNS requests. I believe that 4.9.6 has a patch available to accomplish the same thing. I'd suggest moving to 8.1 though if you haven't already.

No swap is being used during the build process now. I run: make buildworld after CVSupping to stable and the build now dies with: cc -O -I/usr/src/usr.bin/make -I/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/include -c /usr/src/usr.bin/make/for.c cc: Internal compiler error: program cc1 got fatal signal 11 *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Which seems to indicate that something is still wrong. My question: Is there something that will let me test my components and tell me exactly what's going wrong? I can certainly replace everything in my system, but I'd rather not have to go through the hassle. Is there something specific I can look for? Any help would be appreciated.

This will slow your system down, but if it all builds with the cache turned off then you have a dodgy CPU.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Dear, I downloaded all files from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.2.5-RELEASE/bin, but I can't install it both from floppy disk or DOS partition. Every time when the BSD installer retreives infomation from file bin.ai, it shows an error message: Write failure in transfer(wrote -1 bytes of 1024 bytes). I have tried almost all the different brend motherboards in our lab(440LX shipset), the same problem. So I checked in detail about the file "bin.inf" and found there is somthing abnormal. All the records, except the first one, in file bin.inf are with the format of "cksum.?? = 3314456633 240640", where the 240640 represents the actural file size of bin.??. But when you go to the record of "cksum.ai = ******** 240640", the actural size of bin.ai is not 240640 but 239647. I wonder whether the error is caused by this. I am the beginner about FreeBSD. So forgive me if it is not that case. Thanks very much if you can give me a hand.

But I see these new palmtops running WinCE, and I think to myself, "self", I'd rather be running FreeBSD off of 2 AA batteries than Windows. I know the most recent palmtops are running a non-intel RISC cpu, but some of the older DOS palmtops are obviously running intel archetecture. Do you know of any palmtops that are capable of running FreeBSD. I don't care if I have to get a PCMCIA scsi card, and/or have to burn my own ROMs, I just want to know if anyone has gotten a palmtop to run FreeBSD, and which mfg/model it was. Thanks. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Roy Lovejoy PHONE: 360.308.9831 Pixel PoohBah FAX: 360.308.9832 Adept Solutions 7314 Creekwood PL NE Bremerton WA 98311 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Feb 27 11:19:29 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA06307 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 27 Feb 1998 11:19:29 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from gdi.uoregon.edu (gdi.uoregon.edu [128.223.170.30]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA06301 for ; Fri, 27 Feb 1998 11:19:21 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by gdi.uoregon.edu (8.8.7/8.8.8) with SMTP id LAA10777; Fri, 27 Feb 1998 11:19:01 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu) Date: Fri, 27 Feb 1998 11:19:01 -0800 (PST) From: Doug White Reply-To: Doug White To: "á.į.âÁÄÅŅÎ" cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Question In-Reply-To: <01bd4397$db69f940$0100007f@badeyan.aha.ru> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-MIME-Autoconverted: from QUOTED-PRINTABLE to 8bit by hub.freebsd.org id LAA06303 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Fri, 27 Feb 1998, á.į.âÁÄÅŅÎ wrote: > I have FreeBSD 2.2.5 and sound card SB 16 PnP.

It depends if the server's name is encoded into the bootrom. I assume it uses bootp to get the correct information, but you ever know. You need to check that your bootp server is respondig to requests properly. Considering that bootp isn't supposed to run from inted I can understand why it's not working ;) Doug White | University of Oregon Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | Residence Networking Assistant http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | Computer Science Major To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Feb 27 11:50:15 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA16022 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 27 Feb 1998 11:50:15 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns3.quik.com (ns3.quik.com [209.80.13.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA15936 for ; Fri, 27 Feb 1998 11:49:56 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from pap@quik13.com) Received: from quik13.com (ip30.vegas.quik.com [207.38.35.30]) by ns3.quik.com (8.8.7/8.8.5) with ESMTP id TAA50430 for ; Fri, 27 Feb 1998 19:46:52 GMT Message-ID: <34F719CE.BAE517E1@quik13.com> Date: Fri, 27 Feb 1998 11:53:50 -0800 From: "T.

So far I love how easy it was to install for a rookie like myself. I now have one question which may be compiled by many later. I'm trying to run an a.out file compiled by the g++ compiler. As in the book on page 151, "I'm in the directory and can see the file", but when I try to run it I get "a.out: not found". I'm using the Bourne-shell. I've looked at the path statement and I'm working in a sub-directory beneath my home directory. The sub-dir is not in the path statement, but the home directory is. I was able to compile the file find, obviously, but now how do I run the thing? All help appreciated. Thanks.

The palmtops like velo & HP's are VERY nice, but I'm sure it would be like pulling teeth to get the necessary specs to write drivers.

Take alook at the kbdcontrol(8) program. You can use it to dump the keymap and then load another. You will need to add a little code to reload the modified keyboard on every reboot. Maybe there is an option for this in rc.conf. You should take alook to see if it is already covered there. Basically you want to replace all occurences of 'boot' in the keymap with something like 'nop'. cheers, Adrian -- adrian@virginia.edu ---->>>>| If I were stranded on a desert island, and System Administrator --->>>| I could only have one OS for my computer, Neurosurgical Visualzation Lab -->>| it would be FreeBSD.

My question is what device driver in the generic kernel does the card use? I thought is was the ed0 or ed1 driver, but everytime the kernel gets configured, I recieve a "no driver assigned". I am trying to install FreeBSD 2.2.5 from another networked machine, but I really can't do anything if the network card doesn't work. I would appreciate any help you can lend me, especially if you know what driver I should be using. In fact, I left all the network drivers in tact and still recieved the "no driver" message. This is the list that I saw my card: http://www.freebsd.org/~mpcd/handbook/handbook10.html Thanks, Hai To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Feb 27 15:40:07 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA28692 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 27 Feb 1998 15:40:07 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from luke.cpl.net (luke.cpl.net [209.150.92.68]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA28595 for ; Fri, 27 Feb 1998 15:39:58 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from shawn@luke.cpl.net) Received: from localhost (shawn@localhost) by luke.cpl.net (8.8.8/8.6.12) with SMTP id PAA02780; Fri, 27 Feb 1998 15:39:00 -0800 (PST) Date: Fri, 27 Feb 1998 15:39:00 -0800 (PST) From: Shawn Ramsey To: Brian Neal cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Help configuring FreeBSD for multiple virtual hosts...

By the way, To assign an aliased IP to freebsd, this is what you need: ifconfig fxp0(replaced with your network device) 1.1.1.1 alias netmask 255.255.255.255 route add 1.1.1.1 127.0.0.1 Obviosly, replace the 1.1.1.1 with the real IP. :) Then assign each domain to a separate IP.

I have the following in my .Xdefaults file. steve[~]$ grep emacs .Xdefaults emacs*Background: DarkBlue emacs*Foreground: LightGray emacs*pointerColor: Gray50 emacs*cursorColor: Yellow steve[~]$ With this I only see a yellow rectangle where the cursor is instead of a light gray character with a yellow background. Changing the cursorColor doesn't help either. It worked a couple of days ago. Since then I have upgraded to XFree86 v3.3.1 and started using XF86_I128 instead of Xig's Xaccel which dies with an error about not being able to set the fonts directories. I know this is where the problem lies, but I just don't have the where-with-all to fix it. Please reply directly to me to save bandwidth on the list.

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

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

The result is that most leading edge com- puter books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. The sec- ond edition has only just been published, but already a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997. If you have this book, please check this list.

If you find a bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at General changes o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the following command to find process information: $ ps aux | grep foo Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator upon which it is working. This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake for this information Location of the sample files The 2.2.5 CD-ROM came out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM as a single gzipped tar file /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz.

These files are an early version of what is described in the book. I'll put up some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future. Thanks to Frank McCormick for drawing this to my attention. Page 45: Preparing floppies for installation Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page) with: The floppy set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start with bin. followed by two letters. These other files are all 240640 bytes long, except for the final one which is usually shorter. Use the MS-DOS COPY program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until you've got all the distributions you want packed up in this fashion. Copy each dis- tribution into subdirectory corresponding to the base name--for example, copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on. Page 80 and 81 In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 140 Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph: If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. You'll have to reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter: # mount -u / mount root file system read/write # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 160 Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 176 Add the following paragraph Unmounting file systems When you mount a file system, the system assumes it is going to stay there, and in the interests of efficiency it delays writing data back to the file system. This is the same effect we discussed on page 158. As a result, if you want to stop using a file system, you need to tell the system about it. You do this with the umount command. Note the spelling--there's no n in the command name. You need to do this even with read-only media such as CD-ROMs: the system as- sumes it can access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite un- happy if it can't. Where possible, it locks removable media so that you can't remove them from the device until you unmount them. Using umount is straightforward: just tell it what to unmount, either the de- vice name or the directory name. For example, to unmount the CD-ROM we mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands: # umount /dev/cd1a # umount /cd1 Before unmounting a file system, umount checks that nobody is using it. If somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like umount: /cd1: Device busy. This message often occurs because you have changed your di- rectory to a directory on the file system you want to remove. For example (which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt): === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1 umount: /cd1: Device busy === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1 === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 -> Thanks to Ken Deboy for pointing out this omission. Page 197, first line The text of the first full sentence reads: The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label. Page 208, middle of page The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and /dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use /dev/nrst0 with any shell if you want a non-rewinding tape, or /dev/rst0 if you want a rewinding tape. Thanks to Norman C Rice for pointing out this one. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' Add a third point to what you need to know: 3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates. This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 397 In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 364, middle of page Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 466, before the ps example Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 493 Replace the last sentence on the page with: Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%.

To be 100% sure, you need to compare them with the original, or to read in your last backup. In practice, though, it's unlikely that you've damaged any files which hadn't been modified since the last mount, and that includes most of the binaries. You could go looking for ones which have been modified round the time that you did the fsck, but I don't expect you'll have much trouble.

Device ft0 is specified in kernel, but it seems that FDD controller driver probes on startup only those drives that are set in BIOS setup. So, it only tests fd0, and says OK, but does NOT event try to test ft0. I suppose that is because the second drive of FDC, which my tape drive is on, is set to "None" in BIOS setup. But I can't set "floppy drive2 = tape" there. I have tried to set "1.44MB" in hope that FreeBSD come to test the second drive, but no, since BIOS says FDD1 seek failure or so, FreeBSD keep assuming that there no other drives but one...

This makes the transfers much less efficient. The modem doesn't seem to be retraining, because if I do something else like ping the ftp server, the response comes back right away, between the file transfer pauses. The ftp server is running 2.2.5-RELEASE, the ftp client is running 2.2.5-RELEASE. The ftp server has an Intel EtherExpress Pro/100B on a 10baseT network with MTU 1500. The ppp server is a Livingston PortMaster 2e with Framed-MTU = 1500. If, over the same ppp connection, I ftp to an Internet host, I can get the expected transfer rate (2.5+ K/s on a compressed file), but from a host on my LAN I'm only getting 1.7-1.9 K/s on the same files. Would packet fragmentation cause a several-second delay in the middle of an ftp session? I did try setting the MTU down to 576 on the PM2e and in my ppp.conf, to no avail. Or are both the client and server in the exchange waiting for something hopefully provided by the other, some kind of ACK that takes a while to sync up on again? I find it wacky, but I'd like to learn what causes this. Plus (and you knew this was coming if you read any of my PortMaster confusion posts, problem which ended up being a misconfigured firewall delaying DNS resolution for extremely long periods of time), Win95 and MacOS don't have this problem when connected over the same PM2e/modem/ftp server. Suggestions welcome. I feel like the anti-Doug White, someone who asks too many questions and answers too few. :-( dw A bug in my MUA causes news.announce.newusers font to be sent to beneficiaries and senders of UCE/SPAM. @ mcs.net Wishes are like dishes.

I can partition the hard drve fine and install freebsd. The kernal boots but it stops with the message changing root device to wd2a cannot mount root. It then will just reboot. When I go back to OS2 and look at the new partitions they say in partition magic that they are corrupt. I use system commander and have never had any trouble before with freebsd. Can anyone point me in a direction to look.

Perhaps your connection dropped a packet, and you're waiting for TCP's retransmission timeout and retransmission. You might try running `netstat -s -p tcp' before you start the FTP, then after the pause and the modem lights start flashing again, and see if the retransmit timeouts statistic went up. -Dave To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Feb 28 08:37:00 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA24184 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 28 Feb 1998 08:37:00 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns.kbsu.ru ([195.209.253.18]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA24177 for ; Sat, 28 Feb 1998 08:36:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from vel@ns.kbsu.ru) Received: (from vel@localhost) by ns.kbsu.ru (8.8.7/8.8.7) id TAA02990 for questions@freebsd.org; Sat, 28 Feb 1998 19:38:41 +0300 (MSK) From: Charlie Root Message-Id: <199802281638.TAA02990@ns.kbsu.ru> Subject: Programming questions To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Sat, 28 Feb 1998 19:38:41 +0300 (MSK) Reply-To: vel@ns.kbsu.ru X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL22 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello people !

In my mind it is better that a user write a password down and carr it on them for a few weeks until they can memorise than picking a dumb password that anyone could guess. One thing I often tell users is to take a phrase or chunks of lyrics from a song that they like, and take some of the letters. That way they can think about the song or whatever and remember their password. ta#ewa2# Now if you knew this password came from something dumb like: There A (hash) EveryWhere A (hash hash) You've now got something you can remember. I guess the method of remembering is user-dependant, but the point is, many many users choose BAD passwords, and something made up of english words is not a good password. -Mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Feb 28 10:28:20 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA04380 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 28 Feb 1998 10:28:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from fernando.itw.com (ppp116.itw.com [206.138.122.116]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA04373 for ; Sat, 28 Feb 1998 10:28:11 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gmann@itw.com) Received: from localhost (gmann@localhost) by fernando.itw.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id NAA00212 for ; Sat, 28 Feb 1998 13:29:36 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from gmann@itw.com) X-Authentication-Warning: fernando.itw.com: gmann owned process doing -bs Date: Sat, 28 Feb 1998 13:29:35 -0500 (EST) From: Glen W Mann X-Sender: gmann@localhost Reply-To: Glen W Mann To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: New Pentium - sio0 (and mouse) not found Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Howdy- I bought a new Pentium because my 486 died.

One of my disks have started to make a high pitched whine so I was thinking about what might be the problem with it. I was working in an xterm and thought I'd take a gander at fsck man page. got distracted by a phone call and typed in fsck without man and it ran and said it found some error, want to fix? Sure I thought, realzing that I would have to reboot. Fixed and rebooted right from the xterm. Everything came back up perfectly. Either I got really lucky or there is something waiting to bite me in the ass RSN. Disk still makes a high-pitched whine off and on...think its my Western Digital, though BSD is on my quantum. A question though, if I take out my WD (wd0) which has the boot manager on it for f1 or f5 boot options, will I still be able to boot BSD? How to go about this so I can take out wd0 but still retain my BSD disk.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG First I would like to thank Doug White (dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu) and Greg Lehey (grog@lemis.com) for the problem I was having with my mail reader. I've set up and configured a new mail program, let's hope this clears up the matter. Further, thanks goes out once again to Doug White for his suggestion on installing the CD ROM as a slave to the primary EIDE control port. His suggestion cleared up the problem I was having with FreeBSD not being able to read my Sony CD ROM. I now have further set-up problems and actually may not be related to FreeBSD, but it might be worth the e-mail for advice. My main board has SCSI built in. I had an old 411 MB SCSI hard drive that I could devote entirely to the installation of FreeBSD. The main board and DOS were able to read the SCSI drive and assign a drive letter w/o having to install any of the driver software. This was due I believe to the fact that the SCSI hard drive had already been formatted in DOS. I install FreeBSD with the boot manager option on the SCSI drive then reboot. The C drive has remnants of boot manager from previous attempts of FreeBSD installations on the C drive. The machine reboots, shows the boot manager menu: F1 DOS, F2 FreeBSD. F5 brings up my original system set-up which includes E-Z drive. My D and E drives are actually two logical drives on one 3.1 gig Western Digital. If I press F1, the boot-up bypasses the EZ-bios boot sector and loads everything in autoexec.bat and config.sys reading only A, B, C and F (my CD ROM). Ultimately, the question is this, G drive (the SCSI drive) can no longer be read by my system. Since then, I've loaded the drivers that came along with the main board that control the Adaptec SCSI controller chip. The installed software is able to recognize that an SCSI drive exists and I've even been able to low level format using scsifmt and afdisk. On further attempts of loading FreeBSD, it too has been able recognize that an SCSI disk exists; formats and loads the CD ROM available software to the SCSI drive. The AMI bios has only the capability of either enabling or disabling the the SCSI feature, enters the SCSI bios during the bootup prompt and from there, format utilities exist and have been tried as well (these are nothing more than bios built in scsifmt or afdisk because, these options have always been available even before Adaptec drivers have been loaded). From what documentation I've been reading, I get the impression that there are two ways of controlling my SCSI drive. Either through the bios level or the DOS level. When FreeBSD reformatted the SCSI drive, erasing the existing DOS format, my existing DOS system lost the ability of contacting the G drive. Even something as simple as, format g:, will not work. I'm kind of a hobbyist. In fact my case is nothing more than an AT case hack-sawed out and ground down with a drill to accept the ATX style. In the process, I do not have any internal brackets that can hold any of my drives, CD ROM etc. Therefore, everything rests next to my opened case and fortunately, the ribbons and the ATX power supply cable are long enough to attach to the mainboard. My main goal right now is to establish the connection to my SCSI drive and then ultimately to install the FreeBSD.

It probably will work if you reboot immediately, since it's then consistent. The problems are more severe if you give the system time to flush a few blocks from cache. There's also the possibility that you lost data, but it wasn't important enough to notice. > Either I got really lucky or there is something waiting to bite me > in the ass RSN.

It can be annoying, and if the disk starts to wobble you can lose data, but initially the main factor is the irritation and worry. I know systems that go on for years like that.

Before the upgrade it was solid as a rock, no problems what so eveer. Since the upgrade I've been getting unexpected disconnects from my ISP. The ppp.log has no errors or 'terminated' messages. I did find the following in the /var/log/messages log. This is the standard ppp release with 2.2.5. Feb 28 09:01:23 server ppp[2378]: Error: OpenModem failed: /dev/cuaa1: Interrupted system call If any additional information would be helpful, I'll gladly post it. The ppp redials and comes back online, but I would prevent it from happening if at all possible. Comments, Ideas? Also, a couple weeks ago I posted a note about problems with netscape mail and popper. Netscape generating insufficent arguments errors. I was directed to the archives to search, but after many frustrating hours I still havn't unearthed the answer. Anyone have a moment to relay the details of this fix to me?

This one looks like a DNS configuration problem, and the cause of the previous message. You probably don't have an entry for the root name servers.

I also get console messages: fbsdbox /kernel : arplookup 10.0.0.2 failed: host is not on local network. This is a 10 base 2 strung between two ne2000 interfaces.

Actually (and with all due respect) this is the infamous "nslookup sucks" error. :) This happens when you set up named on a system and put 'nameserver 10.0.0.1' in /etc/resolv.conf without setting up a reverse file for that address. For some odd reason nslookup won't function properly if it can't find a hostname for the IP address of the nameserver you're trying to use. There are several ways to solve this problem, fortunately they aren't tough to do. The canonical way to set up a local nameserver is to put 'nameserver 127.0.0.1' as the first entry in /etc/resolv.conf, IF you use that file. If you're only using one server and it's local (on the same machine), it's not necessary. There is a script to create a reverse file for the loopback address in /etc/namedb (make-localhost). You should run that script to generate the zone file and add it to the list of primary zones in /etc/named.boot. If you need the nameserver to listen on 10.0.0.1 for some reason, you should create a reverse file for that zone using the one created for localhost as a model and put that in as a primary in /etc/named.boot. You shouldn't need the root zone for any of this. You should probably fix up the localhost zone anyway, but you can also avoid some of these problems by using dig instead of nslookup. :) Hope this helps, Doug -- *** Chief Operations Officer, DALnet IRC network *** *** Proud operator, designer and maintainer of the world's largest *** Internet Relay Chat server. 5,328 clients and still growing. *** Try spider.dal.net on ports 6662-4 (Powered by FreeBSD) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Feb 28 21:22:28 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id VAA12248 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 28 Feb 1998 21:22:28 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.hsonline.net (mail.hsonline.net [205.243.33.25]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id VAA12238 for ; Sat, 28 Feb 1998 21:22:18 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from zamy27@hsonline.net) Received: from hsonline.net [208.10.214.20] by mail.hsonline.net with ESMTP (SMTPD32-4.02c) id ABF27D6D0108; Sun, 01 Mar 1998 00:27:30 EST Message-ID: <34F88EB3.822D59BA@hsonline.net> Date: Sun, 01 Mar 1998 00:24:52 +0200 From: Scott Myron X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.03 [en] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org" Subject: please help!!! big problem!!!

After mirc ends, whether I exit it normally or it crashes I can't start wine again with any app, I just get an instant "Segmentation fault (core dumped)." So, the first set here is what happens when I try running wine in gdb twice in a row right after a reboot. For what it's worth, when I ran it in gdb the first time here, mirc never appeared.

You can't rely on it working that way round. The other way round works as long as you have the old version libraries on the system.

Since you said your need was urgent, I'll give you the answer I am pretty sure is correct in spite of not being an actual member of the Freebsd team. While binaries compiled on older versions of the OS should work on newer versions with a great degree of reliability, differences in the versions of the standard C libraries that newer binaries are compiled against (and other differences, especially in binaries like top) will sometimes prevent them from running on older systems. This problem is compounded as the time between the age of the system and binaries increases. I hope this information is of use to you.

They're on the live file system CD-ROM in the same place as you would expect to find them on the system (i.e. /bin). Alternatively you can extract them from the 'bin' distribution. Normally you'd do: # cd / # cat /var/dist/distdir/bin.[ac]* | tar xzvf - bin/cat bin/cp bin/chmod This is rather difficult if you don't have cat, of course. You'll be pleased to know that all three files are in bin.aa, so you can write # cd / # tar xzvf cat /var/dist/distdir/bin.aa bin/cat bin/cp bin/chmod Greg To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Feb 28 22:07:22 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA22799 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 28 Feb 1998 22:07:22 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from allegro.lemis.com (allegro.lemis.com [192.109.197.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id WAA22759 for ; Sat, 28 Feb 1998 22:07:14 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from grog@lemis.com) Received: from freebie.lemis.com (freebie.lemis.com [192.109.197.137]) by allegro.lemis.com (8.8.7/8.8.5) with ESMTP id QAA06403; Sun, 1 Mar 1998 16:37:03 +1030 (CST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.8.8/8.8.7) id QAA04474; Sun, 1 Mar 1998 16:36:50 +1030 (CST) (envelope-from grog) Message-ID: <19980301163650.50284@freebie.lemis.com> Date: Sun, 1 Mar 1998 16:36:50 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: Javier Henderson Cc: "Tim O'Neil" , questions@FreeBSD.ORG, Frank McConnell Subject: Re: need more net hints References: <199803010234.SAA10825@rah.star-gate.com> <3.0.3.32.19980228194430.00b2ece0@pop.flash.net> <19980301144341.01849@freebie.lemis.com> <199803010428.UAA17967@kjsl.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.89i In-Reply-To: <199803010428.UAA17967@kjsl.com>; from Javier Henderson on Sat, Feb 28, 1998 at 08:28:37PM -0800 WWW-Home-Page: http://www.lemis.com/~grog Organization: LEMIS, PO Box 460, Echunga SA 5153, Australia Phone: +61-8-8388-8286 Fax: +61-8-8388-8725 Mobile: +61-41-739-7062 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Sat, 28 February 1998 at 20:28:37 -0800, Javier Henderson wrote: > Greg Lehey writes: >> On Sat, 28 February 1998 at 19:44:30 -0800, Tim O'Neil wrote: >>> I was wondering what exactly was meant when nslookup >>> reports "*** Can't find server for address 10.0.0.1: No >>> response from server. >> >> This one means that there is no reverse lookup for network 10. > > I respectfully disagree, and submit that resolv.conf is > pointing the resolver to 10.0.0.1, and named is not running on > that system (presumably the local host).

If you're new to networking, it helps to have some documentation, though. This is all described in some detail in "The Complete FreeBSD", second edition (http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/bsdbook2.htm). If you don't have that, though, it would help to see the networking entries in the /etc/rc.conf of each system. Maybe you could describe the whole setup in more detail.

( FBSD runs apache, squid, telnet, and connects to the internet via modem and ppp. Netatalk is going as well.) This means I will then have two networks hanging off the one FBSD machine. Each network gets its own ethernet card on FBSD. Thinking only about IP for the moment (appletalk later): The original room had addresses: 192.168.1.1 - 192.168.1.254 The new room will have addresses: 192.168.2.1 - 192.168.2.254 The FBSD box, will have addresses 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.2.1. This is OK, isn't it? Obviously I will have to add an ifconfig for the new card in rc.conf as 192.168.2.1 Now, I want machines in one room to be able to talk TCP/IP to machines in the other room. This means I have to configure FBSD to act as a router. Yes? And the easy way I do it is with "route", yes? No doubt it is simple, but I can't make head or tail of the "route" man page. "route add " is as far as I get. Help! Thanks in advance. Eddie.

I'm taking a look at the page now, thanks. The setup is really simple: fbsdbox->ne2K adapter--- 10 base 2 ---ne2K pnp adapter<-wintel nt 4.0 Can't ping, ftp, or telnet, BUT, I get this from tcpdump when I finger myself (sic) from the nt box: (timestamp) arp who-has fbsdbox.garbage.com tell ntbox.garbage.com (timestamp) arp reply fbsdbox.garbage.com is-at 0:c0:d1:57:16:7d That is the correct hardware address for the fbsdbox interface.

The message is different depending on whether you use /etc/resolv.conf or specify the address directly. Of course, that wasn't the message that Tim quoted :-) Greg To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
