Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG A few years ago the IRS changed their regulations and required that when a refinance is done the points must be amortized over the life of the loan and not fully deducted in the year of the refinance. With the low rates of late last, and early this, year many homeowners refinanced. They need to remember if they refinanced in 1997 for a second, third, fourth...time they may have unused portions of the points that they can deduct. This is often overlooked! I apologize if this message is received in error. It is intended for Real Estate and Mortgage professionals and any person who may have refinanced more than once! For you Real Estate Professionals this is a prime time to follow up with your clients! Follow up is the key to repeat business and referrals. Service does not stop with closing! For you homeowners ask your tax preparer. This is a commonly overlooked deduction unless you ask and/or point it out! Please remind your clients, or your tax preparer, if this may apply to you. As with all tax matters you are instructed to seek the advice of a professional such as your CPA or tax attorney. E. Ching Enterprises and the Mortgage Development Group are not giving tax advice, merely a reminder to look, AND ASK, your professional CPA, attorney, etc. if this is a deduction that may apply to you.

In our heterogenous computer environment we use a commercial client/server backup system (NSR) which runs on several platforms. Unfortunately, client software for this system is available only for Linux and not for FreeBSD :-(. This software seems to work fine under FreeBSD (because of the excellent Linux emulation :)) but with one ugly exception: Instead of files and directories in the / tree the /compat/linux tree is accessed. Especially addressing of a subdirectory for which the corresponding /compat/linux directory exists yields in accessing ONLY the Linux files. The same effect occurs for example if you use a Linux find: $ ./find /etc /etc /etc/host.conf /etc/ld.so.conf /etc/ld.so.cache /etc/revision-history /etc/nsswitch.conf $ For backup purposes this behaviour is not very useful. In the worst case a backup consists only of Linux files - the last thing we want to backup. Can anyone give us some helpful hints how to solve this problem?

Can you give me an example? Tried to play with open (PWD, "passwd |"); and/or open (PWD, "|passwd"); (Can't I combine those?) but I didn't manage to get things working. By the way, I'd prefer to have this done under C, because I think I need a suid root prog to change a password, and I don't like suidperl because people get root realy easy with it. Any sulution?

AFAIK you would have to modify the source for booteasy, it is not configureable per se. I think the sources are somewhere in /usr/src/sys/i386/boot. Another option would be to use something like LILO, System Commander or the Windows NT boot manager. System Commander is quite good. Niall -- Niall Smart. Microsoft Suck.

This sounds suspiciously like a WinModem, which is more or less a modem implemented in software with the bare minimum hardware needed to interface to a telephone line. These modems were a cost cutting measure used by large PC manufacturers like Gateway, and are generally not a very good buy unless you plan on using Windows 95 exclusively and don't mind 5-10% of your CPU being chewed up while it acts as a modem. These types of modems aren't currently supported under any other OS than 95 AFAIK. > Ps- Using XFree86 and the Mac64 server how do I start X in 16bpp?

I have created a user with UID = 100000, and it certainly doesn't break anything instaneously :) [root@ginseng /etc]# tail -1 /etc/passwd foo:*:100000:100000:Niall Smart,Somewhere Someplace:/home/nsmart:/usr/local/bin/zsh [root@ginseng /etc]# su foo [foo@ginseng /etc]$ id uid=100000(foo) gid=100000 groups=100000 You might like to ask in -hackers about this, if you're in an environment where you can experiment with this then I'd so go ahead and try it. Beware that any programs which do not use uid_t portably (i.e. assume it can only go up to 65536) will probably have security problems if you use uid's > 65536 because the variable they store the UID in will wrap around. So, in summary, there is nothing preventing this on the kernel side and correctly written programs should handle it, but be careful - try and find someone else who is doing this! :) Niall -- Niall Smart.

Yes, I know that the password is then being sent in cleartext, but I figure that that is the case anyway if you use poppassd (eg. doesn't the Eudora client send the password in clear text ?). So, I guess if you are willing to use poppassd, you can use this script. You can pick it up at : http://peace.com.my/archive/pypasswd.tar Very easy to use. Fully commented with instructions.

I'm sure they're using IMAPd (beats DB programming for managing folders etc) so they would have had to get around any limit on the number of users on a machine.

So, my wilderness years are over (?) and I thought I'd load it on my Jaz drive. I have the old 1Gb drive, not a 2Gb one, attached via Iomega's own PCI SCSI card. I can make this a bootable drive, which I have, and now I have a Jaz cartridge with a 500Mb bootable MS-DOS partition with the /bin dist of 2.2.6, and an unformatted 500Mb partition which I was going to use for UNIX. I downloaded the boot.flp and the fdimage.exe programs and created a boot floppy, and my PC boots up FreeBSD fine - BUT - it doesn't seem to recognise the SCSI adapter or the boot disc in the configuration menu - it only gives me the choice of installing on one of my two IDE discs (which are both crammed full with Windows 95 I'm afraid). The Jaz Jet PCI adapter is not one of those listed on your supported hardware list, so should I give up hope now, or can you offer any suggestions?

I would like to use FreeBSD for my OS platform, since I have all the source code and a system at home I can freely recompile. I looked at section 22.2 of the FreeBSD handbook for what little documentation there is there. It was a bit helpful, but rather sparse. Is there anything else written up about how FreeBSD uses VM? How similar is it to 4.4 BSD? (I have the 4.4 BSD book). In particular, I am interested in the three-tier page table structure of the Intel x86 series. My project would deal either with performance comparisons between the three-tier 4k mode and the two-tier 2M mode, or using a special memory region of CAM memory rather than standard main memory of the page table.

Wrong. KDE is perfectly FreeBSD friendly. Use the FreeBSD port of KDE and it should work as well for you as it does for me. Get the port from the FreeBSD site and not the KDE.org site. If I recommended any other window manager it would be FVWM2. Why do I recommend it. It is the only one that I ever used. :P I can say that I had no trouble building FVWM on FreeBSD.

Use a DOS boot disk and run fdisk /mbr to clean up the boot record. In partitioning you dive the question to answer is which of the OS's is going to support the most apps -- the apps that are critical to getting your work done. You are loading the drive space in the direction of Win95 yet you say that you hate it. Am not picking on that for any reason other than if one of the other OS' is your main OS then I would suggest that more drive soace be given to it. I have NT, Linx, and FreeBSD on my system. Because FreeBSD is my OS of choice it has the most drive space. I am running at about 70% of 1.5G for FreeBSD. The extra space is to allow for the build directory for the make world process. That said, your partitions look OK. Either boot manager OS/2 or boot easy will do the job. Load Win 95 first other wise it will hose up the boot record causing mega problems.

KDE is in the ports collection. My personal experience with it has been mixed. I had problems getting the port to build. I ended up getting the source for the parts that wouldn't build from the KDE site and building from those. That completed it works pretty well. The news reader ocasionalyy core dumps on me however. You can also run any of the parts of KDE from other window managers once KDE is insralled. Thats how I use now. Can't say that it is not friendly to FreeBSD.

Well, the Betas may be a bit FreeBSD unfriendly, however the port should build. Me, I cvsup kde sources every other day or so, and attempt to rebuild it in its entirety. So far everything from the latest sources compiles under -current with the exception of: kppp kscd ksysv kuser kcalc I've contacted the authors of ksysv and kuser and both are going to commit the diffs I've sent them when they get a chance (although the changes are VERY minor). The author of kppp and kscd seems to think that if his programs are flakey or fail to compile on other OSes that it's not his problem, so don't expect fixes for these very soon. So far, kcalc was very recently changed to use functions that are seemingly Linux specific. I'm not sure if/when this will be fixed. Apart from this, kwmsound needs to be compiled w/ -lcompat (should be fixed soonish). I would highly recommend KDE to anyone looking for a very functional and nice looking (not flashy) desktop. Although many (not all) of the developers use Linux a primary platform, I've found them to be generally most receptive to people who are willing to fix things up for other OSes (if you're using gcc/egcs these changes should be easy to do). Although, I'm quite biased (for Qt), I think anyone looking to do some freeware X11 programming would do well by looking into writing KDE compliant or at least Qt apps. - alex who is now maintaing kIRC, one of the KDE irc apps "We are upping our standards ... so up yours." - Pat Paulsen for US of A Prez, 1988.

As others have said, check out the KDE port (see http://freebsd.org/ports/ for more info). However, as far as window managers go, I'd recommend icewm highly (and I've used them all). It's extremely fast, extremely small, has ways to do everything from the keyboard, looks very nice (and look is highly configurable), plus it has a cute little BSD button ;-). -- Steve Farrell To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Apr 12 14:16:45 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA01650 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 12 Apr 1998 14:16:45 -0700 (PDT) (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 OAA01643 for ; Sun, 12 Apr 1998 14:16:42 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from shawn@luke.cpl.net) Received: from localhost (shawn@localhost) by luke.cpl.net (8.8.8/8.6.12) with SMTP id OAA10006 for ; Sun, 12 Apr 1998 14:14:12 -0700 (PDT) Date: Sun, 12 Apr 1998 14:14:12 -0700 (PDT) From: Shawn Ramsey To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: configure error 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 keep getting the following error when running configure scripts.... configure: error: missing argument to -- Anything that uses a configure script, including ports, fails..

I was wondering if the same files and directories that are on the purchaseable cd are on the ftp sites. Or can I only download the normal floppy install files and write those to a cd. Then make flopies off of those, not install off the cd. Also, if I made a cd, could I make it in Windows 95, or must I write it in FreeBSD. Thanks for your time and help.

Correct. That was a bug in the errata, which has since been fixed. The correct command is # cat /cdrom/src/ssys.* | tar xzvf - Sorry about that, they keep changing the names...

Tried this card on two different computers (machines without any "special" features - NE2000 compatible network cards, S3 video). Card is detected by kernel without any problem. But when I try to connect a modem or some other serial device to it, I can't get any response at all, or get garbage. When I connect modem and try to type AT commands to it, TX and RX lights twinkle, but I don't get response into my terminal program. When I connect cisco console to it, i get only garbage. Various experiments with port settings (with stty) and compile time settings in cy.c didn't change anything. This does not seem to be a hardware problem. Card works perfectly in Linux (kernel 2.0.33 + patches from Cyclades) and DOS on same machine. So, I assume, something wrong is with driver or there is some special setup procedure. Maybe hardware changed (my interface card is v. 2.03) since driver was written? Anybody has this card working under FreeBSD? Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- Gediminas Vilutis gedasv@pub.osf.lt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Apr 12 17:42:25 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA28017 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 12 Apr 1998 17:42:25 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from gator.wgss.net (root@wgss.net [207.102.50.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id RAA28012 for ; Sun, 12 Apr 1998 17:42:20 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from rfurda@wgss.net) Received: from hmm.wgss.net (riso@hmm.wgss.net [207.102.50.10]) by gator.wgss.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id RAA27764 for ; Sun, 12 Apr 1998 17:42:10 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from rfurda@wgss.net) Message-Id: <3.0.5.32.19980412174208.0079cd60@wgss.net> X-Sender: riso@wgss.net X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.5 (32) Date: Sun, 12 Apr 1998 17:42:08 -0700 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Richard Furda Subject: pppd Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I am having problems with pppd.

Not in a useful fashion, no. There is no way to tell the difference between a Linux application searching for something that "should" be in /compat/linux and something that "shouldn't". > In our heterogenous computer environment we use a commercial client/server > backup system (NSR) which runs on several platforms.

Directory traversal is problematic. If you attempt to open "/" for traversal in a Linux binary, the search for "/" under /compat/linux will succeed. Subsequently, every directory and file you locate during traversal will also be found there. > For backup purposes this behaviour is not very useful. In the worst case > a backup consists only of Linux files - the last thing we want to backup. Understood. > Can anyone give us some helpful hints how to solve this problem? If you don't mind not backing up *everything* on the FreeBSD client, only back up data under directories in the "real" filespace that have no direct equivalent in the Linux filespace. Depending on your Linux emulation requirements, you may be able to put all of the Linux compatibility files into the "real" filespace, and make /compat/linux a symbolic link to / (this is extremely ugly, and worth avoiding if you can). Yet another ugly technique would be to ask the Linux software to backup only the directory "/real_root", and make /compat/linux/real_root a symbolic link to /. The success of this will to depend on how the backup software handles symbolic links. -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Apr 12 18:22:49 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA02497 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 12 Apr 1998 18:22:49 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from smtp.bc.rogers.wave.ca (smtp.bc.rogers.wave.ca [24.113.32.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA02482 for ; Sun, 12 Apr 1998 18:22:29 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from wwolf@rogers.wave.ca) Received: from mail.bc.rogers.wave.ca ([24.113.32.4]) by smtp.bc.rogers.wave.ca with ESMTP id <700810-21090>; Sun, 12 Apr 1998 21:18:08 -0400 Received: from avalon.ns.bc.rogers.wave.ca ([24.113.53.151]) by mail.bc.rogers.wave.ca with SMTP id <336157-21132>; Sun, 12 Apr 1998 21:21:54 -0400 Date: Sun, 12 Apr 1998 17:22:19 -0700 (PDT) From: Richard Broza X-Sender: wwolf@avalon.ns.bc.rogers.wave.ca To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: re: Printers and Lpr 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 Greets; I've been trying for sometime to setup my printer with FBSD.

Had that happen to me once. Check the relevant files for the correct permissions. I can;t recall which were giving the problem in my experience. OR Check that /usr/X11R6/bin is in the users .profile file. This is most likely the problem.

The freebsd box is setup as a gateway for my HAN ( Home Area Network ). The boxes are coneected via a D-Link hub. I had all the components working a few weeks and now that I have'nt used it for a while these gremilins have crept in. 1) telnetting from my win95 box to freebsd is extremely slow. It takes abt 5 minutes to come back with a login promt. When I try to ping the machine etc. everything looks ok. 2) On startup it hangs while trying to start sendmail. I have to Ctrl-C to get the bootup to go on. A ps after bootup doesnot show sendmail running. Trying to startup sendmail from the commandline show the process with a "S" status with ps. 3) PPP seems to dialout to my isp. even when no one is using it. At first I thought it was sendmail.

As far as I know, you can mount a file system pretty much where you want. /usr/dos looks good to me. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Also, it used to be that people advised against mounting large DOS partitions. I don't know if that is still true, but perhaps you should approach with caution. You might want to look at ports/emulators/mtools anyway. Good luck.

Any help on > how to resolve these problems is appreciated .. TIA Ah. You're not using DNS. What do you have in your /etc/resolv.conf? I don't recommend using /etc/hosts, even for small networks like yours. The only way to access the network is to talk to a remote name server, which means increased network traffic, including increased probability of autodial. If you have "The Complete FreeBSD", second edition (http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/bsdbook2.htm), check chapter 25. It's simpler than most people think.

Setting environmental variables in perl scripts do not change the environment variables in the shell that invoked it, but any children of the perl script (i.e., something that uses fork, system, exec, backticks, pipes in open statements) will have the environment variables you set in the script. This is not a perl limitation, it's the way environment variables work on all Unix operating systems. The closest you can get to having a perl script set environment variables for your shell would be to do something like eval `perlscript` and have perlscript output something like VAR=value; export VAR (bourne, bash, ksh) or setenv VAR value (csh, tcsh) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Apr 12 22:27:30 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA07760 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 12 Apr 1998 22:27:30 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.ahnet.net (mail2.ahnet.net [207.213.224.24]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id WAA07738 for ; Sun, 12 Apr 1998 22:27:20 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from webmaster@zwb.net) Received: from znet-pdcs (icg-apc-pr1-p9.apc.net [207.211.76.163]) by mail.ahnet.net (8.8.7/8.8.6) with SMTP id WAA15556 for ; Sun, 12 Apr 1998 22:19:50 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <3.0.5.32.19980412222419.00933dd0@207.213.224.25> X-Sender: 5808.dima@207.213.224.25 X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.5 (32) Date: Sun, 12 Apr 1998 22:24:19 -0700 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Dima Dorfman Subject: Re: more than 32k users In-Reply-To: <3.0.32.19980413005259.011936b0@peace.com.my> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG At 12:30 AM 4/13/98 +0800, you wrote: >Sorry, this just makes me wonder : > >If yahoo is using FreeBSD for its services (and I presume >that that is its free email service), how could they ramp >up to millions of users all supposedly on the same machine >(since everyone has the email address : user@yahoo.com). > >I'm sure they're using IMAPd (beats DB programming for >managing folders etc) so they would have had to get around >any limit on the number of users on a machine. > >As for disk-space, my mind boggles. > >chas > > > >>On Apr 11, 8:56pm, Steve Hovey wrote: >>} Subject: more than 32k users >>> >>> I know this has been asked before, but Ill be dipped if I can find the >>> answer. >>> >>> Is it possible to increase the maximum number of unix ids over 32k so that >>> one can have over 32k users in /etc/passwd? >> >>>From looking at the header files I see that uid_t (the data type >>used to represent the UID in the kernel and elsewhere) is an unsigned >>32 bit integer meaning that this is possible in theory as long as >>no programs have assumed anything about the size of uid_t. pwd_mkdb >>doesn't like UID's > USHRT_MAX, but will allow you to use them. >> >>I have created a user with UID = 100000, and it certainly doesn't >>break anything instaneously :) >> >>[root@ginseng /etc]# tail -1 /etc/passwd >>foo:*:100000:100000:Niall Smart,Somewhere >Someplace:/home/nsmart:/usr/local/bin/zsh >>[root@ginseng /etc]# su foo >>[foo@ginseng /etc]$ id >>uid=100000(foo) gid=100000 groups=100000 >> >>You might like to ask in -hackers about this, if you're in an >>environment where you can experiment with this then I'd so go ahead >>and try it. >> >>Beware that any programs which do not use uid_t portably (i.e. >>assume it can only go up to 65536) will probably have security >>problems if you use uid's > 65536 because the variable they >>store the UID in will wrap around. >> >>So, in summary, there is nothing preventing this on the kernel >>side and correctly written programs should handle it, but be >>careful - try and find someone else who is doing this! :) >> >>Niall >> >>-- >>Niall Smart.

I don't know if you need to tell 'NT about the print server using a BSD machine, or not. You may need to tell 'NT about the port lpd is on. Look at /etc/services. Your 'NT documentation should tell you how to connect to a Unix, or more correctly lpd, printer. A phone call to a 'NT owner reveals: The 'NT installation manual says: "You can use the lpr connectivity utility at the command prompt to print a file to a host running an LPD server. You can also use the lpq diagnostic utility to obtain the status of a print queue on a host running the LPD server." The 'NT subject "Creating a Printer for TCP/IP Printing" tells how to setup to create a print object and print to a host running an lpd service. In using this, select LPR print monitor and add an LPR Compatible Printer. The port of the lpr service should match the port in your /etc/services. Mine is 515, as is the default in the 'NT setup box. Another alternative is to use samba. I believe this is more complicated.

I do tech support part time for an ISP that I belong to and they use BSDI for most of their stuff but they just installed 2 FBSD 2.2.5 machines to do NAT for 2 ADSL sites (both local high schools) and their local internal LAN. I wanted to install a FBSD box to do NAT at the local public library where I got to install an ADSL modem but it was nixed.

I bought my disks from WC, isnt that enought to register?

Definitely choice 2. Using Choice 1 runs the possibility of giving you an unusable system because of a change in some basic program, like mount.

Check the `xsetroot' manpage, or try xv -- you can give it a command line option that sets the root to a given graphic, and you can use any supported graphic type (including gifs). I use this to make my xlogin window uniquely FreeBSD. :) 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 Mon Apr 13 00:15:48 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA20301 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 13 Apr 1998 00:15:48 -0700 (PDT) (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 AAA20291 for ; Mon, 13 Apr 1998 00:15:44 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by gdi.uoregon.edu (8.8.7/8.8.8) with SMTP id AAA04728; Mon, 13 Apr 1998 00:15:42 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu) Date: Mon, 13 Apr 1998 00:15:42 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug White Reply-To: Doug White To: "bahwi@technologist.com" cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Upgrading from 2.1.7 to 2.2.5 or 2.2.6 In-Reply-To: <199804111506.KAA10403@cs1.cityscope.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 Sat, 11 Apr 1998, bahwi@technologist.com wrote: > I am working for a person who wishes to upgrade from 2.1.7 FreeBSD to 2.2.5, > or, if 2.2.6 is -STABLE, then to that, if he will validate it, otherwise it is > to 2.2.5. Are there any difficulties with upgrading to 2.2.5? Not that I know of, other than login classes, which can bite if you have big processes.

And to su to another user, you need a program that is suid root, isn't it? BTW, discovered that 'pw' password changes are possible under perl: open (PW,"|pw user mod -h 0"); print PW "password\n"; close (PW) A lot easier... maybe unsafe? Made a suid root c-prog that executes perl and this script, which also checks first if the current password of the user is ok... Now change the c-prog to suid root and a group that only the web-server can access, and it's "safe"? (in the suid-root c-prog I first check if the owner really is the one of the web-server, and maybe I'd check some other things like HTTP_REFERER...)

The program running on that machine is extremely memory intensive and often runs as high as 200M and higher. Because this memory gets fragmented, we reboot the machine often, usually every 2 to 3 days. The program itself is in the process of being rewritten to avoid some of these issues. Up until the last 3 weeks or so this pattern has served us well. Recently, a fairly consistent pattern has been developing where after a manual reboot the machine will panic between an hour and two hours later with the message: /kernel: panic: get_pv_entry: cannot get a pv_entry_t After it panics and reboots itself the system is happy for the next 2 or 3 days. I've read the comments in /usr/src/sys/i386/i386/pmap.c so I'm relatively familiar with the meaning of the error message itself. What I don't understand is why it's rebooting itself regularly after a manual reboot, and why (running the same startup scripts, processes, etc.) it's "happy" after a panic instead of being happy after a manual reboot. I realize this is all very odd, however any pointers or assistance would be welcome. Doug PS, searching the archives was useless since a search for pv_entry_t returned a large number of entries, none of which had that item in it. I think the problem is related to underscores in the search item. -- *** 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 Mon Apr 13 02:54:48 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id CAA17968 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 13 Apr 1998 02:54:48 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from odyssey.apana.org.au (odyssey.apana.org.au [203.11.114.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id CAA17602 for ; Mon, 13 Apr 1998 02:52:06 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dean@odyssey.apana.org.au) Received: from localhost (dean@localhost) by odyssey.apana.org.au (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id RAA00767 for ; Mon, 13 Apr 1998 17:52:34 +0800 (WST) Date: Mon, 13 Apr 1998 17:52:33 +0800 (WST) From: Dean Hollister To: FreeBSD Questions Subject: bash: multiplication 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 Hiyall, Having more fun with bash... ;-) According to the expr man page, the following should work: #!/bin/bash hrs=20 mins=10 time=`expr ${hrs} * 60` time=`expr ${time} + ${mins}` However, it falls over (syntax error) on the first expr line.

This is what is supposed to happen, X is the X server, it just fires up and waits for clients, such as "xterm" or "netscape" or "xclock" to connect. These clients have to be started by you elsewhere, which brings us to xinit: > xinit - opens one borderless windows that appears to function fine xinit is a shell utility which fires up the X server and executes the .xinitrc in the users home directory if it exists, or executes an xterm if it doesn't. You obviously don't have a .xinitrc configured hence you are getting the one xterm that it starts by default. When the clients it starts exit then xinit kills the X server which brings you back to console mode. Create yourself an .xinitrc file like this: xterm & exec twm This should start a window manager which lets you move the windows around, check out www.windowmaker.org for a decent window manager. > startx - this is what I was looking for and just found it tonight thanks to > a post on this list. Would this be considered Motif? No, Motif is a set of libraries for creating X apps. startx is basically a script which sets up your environment and then executes xinit.

As long as you make sure to avoid accepting nasty input (e.g., shell metacharacters) this should be ok. Note that pw needs to be run by root, I would make the perl script setuid root but executable only by the web server. You should be able to verify the existing password using the crypt function. > Nice idea, or, as always, absolutely unsafe? :-)) Well, the passwords are being transferred in the clear over the network, so..

No, try as a regular user: $ su - otheruser You get prompted for the password of the otheruser. So to change the password of some user, you just need the current password of this user.

The FreeBSD CD Set from Walnut Creek contains FreeBSD and a whole host of other useful stuff. If you just want to get the base FreeBSD going then download everything in the 2.2.6-RELEASE directory and burn that. Yes, you can burn it in Windows, use the ISO 9660 format. Niall -- Niall Smart.

I once setup a HL-630 under Linux using the FreeBSD handbook, so you should be able to find enough information there! The HL-630 supports PCL so you can use ghostscript to print out postscript files. > Regarding Iomega Zip drives, how can I get the system to use this > device? Parallel port zip drive?

The router solicitations sent by routed never hit the wire. Thus a router is never discovered. The route table has just 2 entries, 127.0.0.0 and the one for the local LAN. It seems that router discovery client is using the route table to find the "next hop" when it should not be doing so for multicast. When I use broadcast in lieu of multicast (/etc/gateways configured with bcast_rdisc) things work. When I use gated for router discovery client (with multicast) I do *not* see the problem I described with routed. MikeC Michael C.

Date: Mon, 13 Apr 1998 10:25:22 -0400 From: Brian McGovern Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I've spent most of the weekend tinkering with 2.26, and PortalFS, with no major successes. Before I go in to hacking around in a part of the kernel I know very little about, I just wanted to get a pulse as to where people think PortalFS is in 2.2.6. I grabbed the portal.conf from the source tree (/usr/src/sbin/mount_portal), and stuck it in /etc. It reads: # @(#)portal.conf 8.1 (Berkeley) 6/5/93 # $Id: portal.conf,v 1.1.1.1 1994/05/26 06:34:33 rgrimes Exp $ tcplisten/ tcplisten tcplisten/ tcp/ tcp tcp/ fs/ file fs/ pipe/ pipe foo/ exec ./bar bar baz I then wrote a short program that tried to open "/portal/tcp/1.2.3.4/23" to get a socket for a telnet connection (with flags O_RDWR). Having traced through mount_portal, it appears that everything works fine until around like 154 of activate.c, where the sendmsg() call doesn't work (so = 4 at this point), which causes the calling application to get an errno = 54 at open time. If I open the socket as read only (as cat < /portal/tcp/1.2.3.4/23), it claims the socket is closed by the other end (which would be true if telnetd at the other end tries to do a read, which it will). So, I guess my question(s) is(are): 1.) Does portalfs work, and I'm just doing something stupid? 2.) If portalfs does appear to be broken, can anyone with greater knowledge of this type of filesystem give me a pointer or two to let me know what they think may be the culprit, and I'll go chance it down (and yes, options PORTAL appears in my kernel config).

I know there are a couple versions of BSD for MIPS floating around. Is there one I could use for this particular PC ??? Where can I find Free BSD for the MIPS?

You can not honestly expect people to join this list prioir to asking questions. It's different with newsgroups and it's different with other lists.

The people who read and reply to the questions asked are mostly FreeBSD users who have volunteered to help people out with sensible questions. I find it incredibly annoying when people seemingly expect others to dutifully provide a 12 page answer within the next 15 minutes and drop it right on their doorstep. I expect those who post questions to the list to show the same willingness to participate as I do, i.e. by subscribing and discussing the problem on the list. I also reject out of hand that you cannot expect people to join the list, the fact that the original poster requested a personal reply indicates that he is perfectly aware how such lists usually operate. Many, if not most of the discussions are relevant to all readers, hence they should be kept on the list. -questions is not an initial contact point of a one-to-one support line. I don't care how important the problem is for you, whether root's shell is missing, the hard disk is on fire, or the president can't send email -- if you expect me to read the list to answer questions, I expect you to read the list for replies -- no exceptions.

Any recomendations ? I'm not sure what you're looking for here, the metamail command (probably in ports) can decode MIME encoded mails, uudecode decodes uuencode'd files, and mtools (in ports) lets you write/read DOS formatted floppy disks.

Any recomendations ? First you should save the attachments to a file in windows. I recommend putting the files in the c:\ directory for simplicity later in the procedure. Now that you have the attachments in a file in windows you don't need to worry about email anymore. You still have to get these files over to the BSD side of your system. You don't need a special program to move these files to BSD. You already have everything you need. Boot into FreeBSD Mount your DOS partition Copy files from the dos partition to BSD Unmount your DOS partition Have fun, | Stop warning me about the latest virus. Learn more...

Well, I wasn't following the thread thus far, but the option that you seem to think you need, "deflate", is an option for /usr/sbin/ppp, and not the completely different daemon, /usr/sbin/pppd.

I understand the obvious concerns about export and such, but wouldn't this provide a little bit of freedom for the rest of us?

The point is that on my cyrix 686 M2-MMX the 2.2.5 kernel collapses on startup on a general protection fault, but the 2.2.6 one comes up OK. (I suppose I could now download the 2.2.2 kernel and see if that works!?) I now have the whole of 2.2.6 bin directory downloaded from the uk mirror, but a nearly full disk, and have two questions - 1) do I expect many differences between the 2.2.5 and 2.2.6 binaries (ok I'll do a diff, but if there are lots of differences I'd just not bother - but if most of the /usr files are the same, or compatible, I'll prune them out and let my other system still act as server -) 2) with this in mind, why is the new kernel put at the end of the distribution (at least it appears to be) so I have to download all 70+ files in bin to get to it??

However, now I'd like to get it running with FreeBSD, so I can use it for what I used the old one for... Burning CDs for FreeBSD... Anyhow, its a Yamaha CRW4260t, aka the 4x2x6 (4x CD-R write, 2X CD-RW write, and 6x player). It isn't recognized by the work driver, and cdrecord seems not to be able to recognize it as a CDR[W] drive, as I think it reports a type of "CD", as compared to a CD-R. In any event, if anyone knows how tough it is to get one of these things up and running and/or can give me some pointers on what I have to setup, I'd appreciate it. It'd be nice to get another CD drive supported, as HP stopped making the 4020 and 6020 drives, and we don't have support for the IDE disks yet. -Brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Apr 13 11:54:26 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA26288 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 13 Apr 1998 11:54:26 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from dt050n33.san.rr.com (@dt050n33.san.rr.com [204.210.31.51]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA26279; Mon, 13 Apr 1998 18:54:21 GMT (envelope-from Studded@san.rr.com) Received: from san.rr.com (Studded@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by dt050n33.san.rr.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA09861; Mon, 13 Apr 1998 11:54:16 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from Studded@san.rr.com) Message-ID: <35325F57.3B529D24@san.rr.com> Date: Mon, 13 Apr 1998 11:54:15 -0700 From: Studded Organization: Triborough Bridge & Tunnel Authority X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.05 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 2.2.6-STABLE i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Dave Ellis CC: freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG, FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: PPP Installation problems References: <3.0.32.19980413111934.0069449c@ezlink.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm forwarding your question to freebsd-questions since you're not actually asking about docs. :) Good luck, Doug Dave Ellis wrote: > > HELP!

If all of a sudden you need your memory for other things?

Well, if they have to be committed to disk, then a RAM drive isn't a good idea as the machine could fail at any time leaving the disk file out of sync. If you can get away with flushing to disk every 100 or so requests perhaps you could keep the data files in a SYSV shared memory area? I'm not sure if perl lets you do that kind of thing. -- Niall Smart. Microsoft Suck.

Well, you can *use* shutdown without shutting down, use the -k option. >From the man page: -k Kick every body off. The -k option does not actually halt the system, but leaves the system multi-user with logins disabled (for all but super-user). Not sure if that's what you're looking for.

That'll do a pretty good job. You could kill all their processes with something like ps -aux | grep username | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill Or you could lock them out, as should be done with any user trying to crack root, by killing all their processes and then disabling their ability to log in. There are several methods of doing that; one that I like is using "vipw" to edit the password file and inserting a * character at the beginning of their (encrypted) password. That way, if it was an innocent mistake and things can be sorted out, you can just re-edit the file, deleting the *, allowing them to use their original password. HTH. GReg -- Gregory S.

Thats "/usr/sbin/ppp", not "/usr/sbin/pppd" Yes it does. From `man pppd`: PPPD(8) PPPD(8) NAME pppd - Point to Point Protocol daemon SYNOPSIS pppd [ tty_name ] [ speed ] [ options ] DESCRIPTION The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) provides a method for transmitting datagrams over serial point-to-point links. PPP is composed of three parts: a method for encapsulating datagrams over serial links, an extensible Link Control Protocol (LCP), and a family of Network Control Protocols (NCP) for establishing and configuring different network- layer protocols. . . . . deflate nr,nt Request that the peer compress packets that it sends, using the Deflate scheme, with a maximum window size of 2**nr bytes, and agree to compress packets sent to the peer with a maximum window size of 2**nt bytes. If nt is not specified, it defaults to the value given for nr. Values in the range 8 to 15 may be used for nr and nt; larger values give better compression but consume more kernel memory for compression dictionaries. Alter- natively, a value of 0 for nr or nt disables com- pression in the corresponding direction. Use node- flate or deflate 0 to disable Deflate compression entirely. (Note: pppd requests Deflate compression in preference to BSD-Compress if the peer can do either.) deflate nr,nt Request that the peer compress packets that it sends, using the Deflate scheme, with a maximum window size of 2**nr bytes, and agree to compress packets sent to the peer with a maximum window size of 2**nt bytes. If nt is not specified, it defaults to the value given for nr. Values in the range 8 to 15 may be used for nr and nt; larger values give better compression but consume more kernel memory for compression dictionaries. Alter- natively, a value of 0 for nr or nt disables com- pression in the corresponding direction. Use node- flate or deflate 0 to disable Deflate compression entirely.

The Cyrix processors generally have slower floating-point units as compared to Intel processors, so that may cancel any gain you get with the faster clock cycle.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Maybe I need to rent a clue.... I just replaced our main NFS server with one ruuning FreeBSD 2.2.6-RELEASE. (Old machine had been running 2.1.0-RELEASE.) This particular machine was also running a couple of other things -- a Web server & a samba server. Now, we use /usr/local for site-specific (vs. machine-specific) things. This machine exports a filesystem that most machines import as /usr/local. We also would like to use programs &c. that are on this filesystem from this machine's /usr/local; therefore, that filesystem also appears on this machine as /usr/local. However, if I put the initialization stuff for the machine-specific servers in /usr/local/etc/rc.d, every machine on the net sees that, and tries to start them up at boot time. This really is not what I'd prefer to do. So, for now, I've gone back to the (deprecated) /etc/rc.local for this purpose. Suggestions for ways to do this that are likely to work while keeping some reasonable semblance of conformity to rational expectations of How Things Ought To Be Done would be most welcome.

I erased it by accident...heheeh Just an update. I connected the modem to the external com2 port. It dials, but it disconnectes in the middle of the tones. I'm gusssing it's in the init string and i have to tweak it. You wouldn't hapen to know of a string that is nice with USR, Ascend, and Livingston com servers would you? I am also wondering if I'm putting the strings that I've tried in the right place. I am putting them before the ATDT###-#### in my connect script. So that portion of my script would look like: AT&BLAH-BLAH-BLAH OK ATDT525-1330 Is that correct? Thanks in advance, Chris -- -- -- It is COM3 and COM4 or thats what it reports in Win95. Also yes all the sio's are being probed, I configured the kernel to probe them. Still no help. I have an old USR Sportster 28.8 that I'm gonna try hooking up to COM2 and see if that works. I just need to get a cable, which I plan to do today. Is there anything special I need to do for USR Sportsters? Cause it has those DIP Switches in the back. Any special ones need to be down or up? It is an external.

The routed broadcasts should end up on the locally attached network, if multicast fails (and I don't recall RIP using multicast).

Routed is pretty stupid as far as routing daemons go. Gated is miles ahead in intelligence. I'd suggest checking the routed manpage and/or relevant documentation (the UNIX sysadmin red book comes to mind).

The old binaries will probably work, although you should load on the new libs and the new ps/top and friends. > 2) with this in mind, why is the new kernel put at the end of the > distribution (at least it appears to be) so I have to download all 70+ > files in bin to get to it?? Got me. The release system is built by an automated process, the /kernel is probably at the tail end. I know that sysinstall does some interesting things with it though just before finishing up.

Check that: 1) your serial port(s)are detected correctly on startup. 2) That you have set the device in ppp to the correct port (/dev/cuaa0 = COM1, /dev/cuaa1 = COM2) 3) That the speed is set correctly.

In fact, startx is a shell script which just sets some environment variables and runs xinit. xinit starts the applications specified in your .xinitrc, which is also a shell script.

The "official" standpoint is different. We do want people to be able to send messages to the list without be subscribed. That's why I recommend answering to the sender as well as to the list. You might benefit by reading http://www.lemis.com/questions.html. I send it out every Friday, so you should already have seen it.

You still have ping, so the network stack is still functioning, so it's not completely dead. I would recommend keeping tabs on: top # for memory leaking processes netstat -m # for mbuf usage pstat -T # for file usage If these get out of hand then the system could be spewing error messages but you can't see them. If you want to learn how, the proper solution would be to compile in DDB and drop to DDB when it freezes. At least from DDB you can poke around a bit.

I'm no longer sure that this is a good idea. Over the last couple of days I have set up a mailing list, and I find that a large number of legitimate users have transient problems in their reverse lookup (not their fault, nor of anybody in their domain). The result is that mail to or from them bounces. I've taken mine out as a result. There are lots of pointers to anti-spam stuff. Check out http://www.sendmail.org/ for the most authentic.

I realised after that BSD doesn't support FAT 32 then I tried mount -t msdos /dev/wd0s3 /dos and got the following message : "mount: msdos: wd0s3 invalid device" I went back to Win 95 and installed the filesystem (Win 95) on this partition but I got the same message when I tried again to mount it. Why can I not mount this partition ? What is the purpose of wd0s4 (unknown OS) which uses 80 Mo ? Thank in advance for any help / advise .

There is no such directory - /etc/rc.d ;-) Did you read the original message? He has a couple of machines that NFS-share a single /usr/local. When these machines boot up, they all run staff from /usr/local/rc.d. It is a side effect. I offer the solution: to have a separate subdirectory for each machine. Than in /usr/local/rc.d can be placed common scripts for all machines. -- Ruslan Ermilov System Administrator ru@ucb.crimea.ua United Commercial Bank +380-652-247647 Simferopol, Crimea 2426679 ICQ Network, UIN To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Apr 14 02:22:12 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id CAA00982 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 14 Apr 1998 02:22:12 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from relay.ucb.crimea.ua (relay.ucb.crimea.ua [194.93.177.113]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA00679 for ; Tue, 14 Apr 1998 09:21:18 GMT (envelope-from ru@ucb.crimea.ua) Received: (from ru@localhost) by relay.ucb.crimea.ua (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA16687; Tue, 14 Apr 1998 12:21:08 +0300 (EEST) (envelope-from ru) Message-ID: <19980414122108.33861@ucb.crimea.ua> Date: Tue, 14 Apr 1998 12:21:08 +0300 From: Ruslan Ermilov To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Mounting Windows 95 partitions Mail-Followup-To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG References: <3533276B.2AEA5AC@nmrc.ucc.ie> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.89.1i In-Reply-To: <3533276B.2AEA5AC@nmrc.ucc.ie>; from Jean-Paul Beconne on Tue, Apr 14, 1998 at 10:07:55AM +0100 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Tue, Apr 14, 1998 at 10:07:55AM +0100, Jean-Paul Beconne wrote: > I tried to mount Windows 95 partition and failed.

I don't suggest to use /bin/hostname. I suggest to use ${hostname}, defined in /etc/rc.conf. The line . /etc/rc.conf appears before for dir in ${local_startup}; do in /etc/rc.

Now you just have to open a new terminal (by typing alt + F2, alt + F3, etc...) and call your favorite aplication like FTP, lynx, and so on.

I don't have further details, since I don't use pppd, but take a look at man ppp and man pppd. I hope it helped. Regards, and enjoy your FREEdom, hehehe !

You need to find the problem first, not a workaround. Then you can decide how to react correctly. If you can help us isolate the problem, we may be able to fix it, assuming (which is unlikely) that it's a FreeBSD fault. I had a problem like this with Australia's Telstra "Big Pond" service. It's broken, but the tech support people didn't even understand enough to go to look for it. The solution was obvious, and it worked: get another ISP.

Stan, in case you didn't know, a LAND attack is done with a butchered TCP/IP packet sent to the machine with the intention of causing a crash and resulting in Denial-Of-Service.

I took a closer look at my identical systems and found they weren't identical. One has a Seagate 1.2 gb IDE drive, the other doesn't. On a lark, I decided to run not just with IDE drivers, but also the Seagate ST driver (listed in configuration). I still am troubled by the "panic: bremfree: " message, though, just for knowledge sake. Also, I am using an AVANCE LOGIC 2302 video card. IMHO, this is a crap card. It doesn't seem to support as many video modes as for example a generic S3. It kills the OS if I try to run XFree86, and Metro-X only sees a generic VGA card.

My FBSD box logs in in a matter of seconds, while my NT box used to taking a couple of minutes (I could load Communicator 4 and Eudora Pro before it could actually register my conmputer to the network; I run my system on a 586 Cyrix/100MHz). > I've tried it sometimes but PPP ON >myname never comes up.

I suggest you to use the ppp.conf.sample file, make all mofifications and save it as ppp.conf. Alternativelly you can try looking at this: http://www.nettaxi.com/citizens/E.Brandi/ppp.conf This one is based on my personal ppp.conf, and actually works. you will have to change the login sequence. I don't think you can speak/read portuguese, but you can also try to follow a couple of steps at: http://www.nettaxi.com/citizens/E.Brandi/ppp.html and http://www.nettaxi.com/citizens/E.Brandi/ppp_det.html >It's on COM1 on windows so I set the modem to /dev/cuaa0 >because it should be on sio0. There is supposed to be something similar to >cuaa0, ttyS but I don't seem to have that at all. Can you help me please. Your port setting are correct. See if this helped, and keep calm. BTW, make sure you reply to the list too, this way you can benefit from all-of-those-cool-gurus' opinions/help too.

Or do I have to go buy another SCSI card?

Another technique is to make /usr/local/etc/rc.d a symlink back to a local directory. (E.g., /etc/local.rc.d) That way you don't have to remember to modify rc.conf when you upgrade the OS on the client machines. And you still get the benefits of separate rc scripts for each local daemon. Of course this assumes that you are not one of those sysadmins who really hates symlink proliferation... -Pat To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Apr 14 08:57:21 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA07422 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 14 Apr 1998 08:57:21 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from blizzard.lightning.net (root@blizzard.lightning.net [209.51.160.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA07412 for ; Tue, 14 Apr 1998 15:57:06 GMT (envelope-from snash@lightning.net) Received: from lightning.net (rainevent.lightning.net [209.51.160.65]) by blizzard.lightning.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA28227 for ; Tue, 14 Apr 1998 11:47:47 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <35338748.8CF524D7@lightning.net> Date: Tue, 14 Apr 1998 11:56:56 -0400 From: Steven Nash Organization: Lightning Internet Services LLC X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.05 [en] (X11; I; SunOS 5.6 i86pc) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: FreeBSD Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="------------9FA114AE0C18E5611606B577" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG --------------9FA114AE0C18E5611606B577 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I have the advansys scsi card (the jaz jet).

I'm assuming that the cable is good. (?) Does anybody see anything obvious that I'm missing here? dmesg reports: lpt0 at 0x378-0x37f irq 7 on isa lpt0: Interrupt-driven port on both machines.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, 1) I just wanted to know if you could tell me how to view the kernel config file from the kernel? I don't have any source files installed, thus my config file is missing. 2) I am going to raise the number of maxusers in the kernel config file and was wondering if there is a table (or general rule of thumb) that I can use for reference that would guide me based on my Mbytes of RAM or other specifications? 3) Is there a FAQ somewhere or from your knowledge, a performance tuning type guide for the server? Since I am going to compile the kernel, I might as well optimize it. If it helps, the FreeBSD machine has 131M of RAM, and a Pentium 100 processor.

The "standard" rule for this returns a temporary error so transient problems shouldn't do more than slow mail from them down. Here's the one we use Scheck_mail # verify valid DNS entry R$* $: $>3 $1 R $* < @ $+ . > $: R $* < @ $+ > $#error $: 451 Domain must resolve $1@$2 $&{client_addr} I go through the logs checking these once or twice a month. Catches a huge amount of spam and I've only seen one instance where a legit address was refused. YMMV You do need to be aware of the potential problems going in but I think it is worth it.

All DOS partitioned disks have 4 DOS primary partition slots which may or may not be assigned space. You can put DOS primary partitions in these, FreeBSD, OS/2, DOS extended partitions, etc. But there are 4. Note that FreeBSD calls these 4 DOS partition slots "slices", since it has its own entities called "partitions" which exist inside of its "slice". >From your wd0s4 (Disk 0, Slice 4) entry, it looks like you just have 80Meg left over at the end of your disk that isn't being used for anything right now.

No, you should fix your system. Why do you need to drop to single user so much? I haven't done it in a couple of years on my workstation, and that's through two system upgrades.

Welcome to the club. Lots of others have tried but no one has succeeded as of yet.

So likely what you want is: mount -t msdos /dev/sd0s4 /mnt Of course you can re-fdisk and format them any which way you want. I tend to prefer putting my UFSs on my UFS ZIPs in slice 1, and leaving the DOS FAT FSs in slice 4. Makes them easy to distinguish. My "mountzip" script just tries to mount both slices, and succeeds on the correct one.

Do not use Squid version 1.2+ at this point in time, unless you feel like fixing the problems you will encounter not just with building it, but running it. Squid 1.1.21 is the latest "stable" version of squid, available in the ports collection under ports/www/squid11. I have been running it on a FreeBSD 2.2.5 486DX-66 box for the last 50 days or so (39 day uptime at the moment), with about 70 busy clients (a school media lab). Squid's cpu usage hangs at around 10% or so during the day, with the system load at about 0.05. I currently only have a 200MB cache due to disk space limitations, but I would like to increase it to several GB in the future. So yes, I've used Squid, and it works VERY well from what I have seen so far. I would highly recommend it. If you are using Navigator and MSIE clients, you can set up a proxy-autoconfig java script (compatible with both clients, from what I understand, though I only use it with Navigator.) which will allow you to quickly configure the clients, as well as exercise quite a bit of control over when the client asks the cache for data or wether it should go out and fetch the data directly. Let me know if you would like to see the proxy autoconfig script I use. The same information is available in Squid's documentation (http://squid.nlanr.net) as well as Netscape's web site. -- Chris Dillon --- cdillon@inter-linc.net --- cdillon@wolves.k12.mo.us /* Powered by FreeBSD, the best operating system on the planet.

When the computer came, it had to 2G partitions. In the partition editor, during the install process, delete "sd0s1", or "wd0s1" (depending on whether or not you are using a SCSI drive) and replace it with a FBSD partition. It will install in to that partition and not touch C: You would have to install BootEasy, or another bootmanager in order to choose which OS to boot. -Spike Gronim spork@cncn.com "Hacker, n: One who hacks real good" --Computer Contradictionary To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Apr 14 13:26:15 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA06192 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 14 Apr 1998 13:26:15 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from pigstuy ([207.113.85.111]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA06038 for ; Tue, 14 Apr 1998 20:25:06 GMT (envelope-from spork@cncn.com) Received: from localhost (spork@localhost) by pigstuy (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id QAA00646; Tue, 14 Apr 1998 16:23:27 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from spork@cncn.com) X-Authentication-Warning: pigstuy: spork owned process doing -bs Date: Tue, 14 Apr 1998 16:23:23 -0400 (EDT) From: Spike Gronim X-Sender: spork@pigstuy Reply-To: spork To: Dima Dorfman cc: fbsdqs Subject: Re: IPFW In-Reply-To: <3.0.5.32.19980414131259.00928650@207.213.224.25> 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 Tue, 14 Apr 1998, Dima Dorfman wrote: > You need to specify a rule number, like: > > ipfw add 1000 deny tcp from localhost to panix.com > > At 04:09 PM 4/14/98 -0400, you wrote: > >Hello. > > > > Just for practice I am configuring a fire wall on my computer.

Well, I don't agree with this standpoint, but I'll agree to disagree :) I just don't respond to questions asked by someone who is either too stupid or disrespectful to take into consideration that I'm doing him a favour by answering. (And no, this isn't some fundamental need for need in my pscyhe, its just an expectation of common courtesy) There are other sound reasons for keeping the discussions on the list, such as keeping the Q&A's archived. > You might benefit by reading http://www.lemis.com/questions.html.

In RAID 5 to write a sector requires the following: (through not necessarily in the order specified) read the parity sector (usually on a different drive than the target sector) read the target sector write the target sector write the parity sector while a read only requires a read of the target sector. So generally writing takes quite a hit. -- Brian Litzinger To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Apr 14 14:00:24 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA12186 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 14 Apr 1998 14:00:24 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns.usac.edu.gt ([168.234.52.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id VAA12074 for ; Tue, 14 Apr 1998 21:00:05 GMT (envelope-from victor@usac.edu.gt) Received: from localhost by ns.usac.edu.gt; (5.65/1.1.8.2/17Apr97-1150AM) id AA13880; Tue, 14 Apr 1998 14:52:58 -0600 Date: Tue, 14 Apr 1998 14:52:58 -0600 (GMT-0600) From: Victor Manuel Carranza Gonzalez To: Frank Griffith Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: List of Users In-Reply-To: <000201bd674c$57d69ce0$740e42ce@flg1> Message-Id: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Mon, 13 Apr 1998, Frank Griffith wrote: > I need to see what users accounts have been > setup on my FreeBSD machine.

I don't know about the implementation in FreeBSD, but PPP has a protocol called LQR (link quality report). Some PPP implementations can be configured to drop the connection and reconnect if the LQR reports are below a certain threshold. However, they directly address lost data rather than slow data. However, LQRs which don't respond in time can count against a slow connection. I could also envision a script which pings the ISP side of the interface. If the times come back too slow, you could kill off the PPP session and spawn another. -- Brian Litzinger To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Apr 14 14:07:00 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA14323 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 14 Apr 1998 14:07:00 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from newton.ccs.tuns.ca (root@newton.ccs.Tuns.Ca [134.190.1.4]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id VAA14266 for ; Tue, 14 Apr 1998 21:06:29 GMT (envelope-from xiaominy@newton.ccs.tuns.ca) Received: from localhost (xiaominy@localhost) by newton.ccs.tuns.ca (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id RAA11782; Tue, 14 Apr 1998 17:42:44 -0300 (ADT) Date: Tue, 14 Apr 1998 17:42:44 -0300 (ADT) From: Ye Xiaomin To: Doug White cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Mitsumi CDROM In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG HI, Doug, Yes.

Now a question - why is is that a UFS formatted ZIP disk gives me so much less storage space than a DOS one?

It is connecting to one of three different types of COM Servers depending on where I dial in.

User-ppp has only one LQM strategy - if we haven't had a reply to the last 5 LQRs (or ECHO LQRs), we drop the link instead of sending a 6th. I may implement more strategys in the multilink version. The problem is that it seems that a lot of ISPs will just REJ QUALPROTO LCP requests, so we're stuck using ECHO LQRs which are useless for determining a bad link :-( > I could also envision a script which pings the ISP side of the interface. > If the times come back too slow, you could kill off the PPP session > and spawn another.

I have read and reread: chapters 2-5 of Complete FreeBSD 2nd ed the website tutorial on multiple OS FAQ 8.7 on NT loader archives from the questions list *Except* for the FAQ, there are warnings everywhere about the cylinder 1024 limit. This warning seems tied to an assumption that BIOS and DOS/Windows95 are involved. So, If I want NT 4 as my only other OS, can I follow the FAQ and use the NT loader to boot FreeBSD, with FreeBSD loacted in the third GB of a 3 GB IDE hard disk, and NT occupying the first two GB? A few more questions: Can the NT file system be NTFS before FreeBSD is installed, or does it have to be FAT? Will fips work OK with either file system? Is there any preference between fips or partitioning as NT loads? Is the preparation with defrag (Norton utilities for NT, since I don't have DOS ...) and partitioning likely to put NT into a snit?

If you're running a reasonably cut-down system, I suggest that you look at PicoBSD and one of the flash cards that emulate a floppy drive or harddisk at the BIOS level. You won't be able to read/write the disk once FreeBSD has booted though, but this is often OK for embedded applications. If you need rewritable storage, there are solid-state disks available both using flash and battery-backed DRAM. Owing to the behaviour of the BSD filesystem, you may find that flash disks have an unacceptably short lifetime (50-100,000 write cycles). See http://www.indcompsrc.com/products/drives/home.html for some examples (ICS are expensive, you will be able to do better elsewhere if you can find other suppliers). FreeBSD does not have flash filesystem support at this time. -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Apr 14 18:25:17 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA09231 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 14 Apr 1998 18:25:17 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from geo.geocast.net (geo.geocast.net [128.177.240.120]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id BAA09134 for ; Wed, 15 Apr 1998 01:25:01 GMT (envelope-from castor@geocast.net) Received: from localhost (castor@localhost) by geo.geocast.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id SAA13128 for ; Tue, 14 Apr 1998 18:25:00 -0700 (PDT) Date: Tue, 14 Apr 1998 18:24:59 -0700 (PDT) From: Castor Fu To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Where does userconfig store its stuff 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 Where does userconfig store its configuration information?

Otherwise you need to reboot every time you change anything. Your tools are ifconfig and netstat--see "The Complete FreeBSD", second edition (http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/bsdbook2.htm) for techniques. At this stage, it would be good to see the output from 'ifconfig -a' and 'netstat -rn' on both machines.

Yes, it's a 4xx error number, but a surprising number of mailers give up when they see it. I haven't investigated why. I've had a large number of problems with reverse lookup in the last week. In particular, the IP address of my PPP link to the outside world keeps dropping off the net. This seems to be related to one particular name server, munnari.oz.au, but it's taking its time to be fixed.

I strongly suspect that you will need to be in the Apple developer program, which will cost you either $500 or $3500, depending on which level of access you want. You will then need to sign a NDA to get into the seeding program. FWIW, Rhapsody will likely not be a complete unix... any more than NeXT was. Specifically, X will most likely be left out. Also, Apple is repositioning Rhapsody as a "server" OS, as opposed to desktop. This may indicate Apple's intent to charge a price similar to that charged for other OSes (NT, BSDI, et al). Or it may mean that it will only run on 604 based systems. Or it may mean nothing. There is also some real strange brain dammage due to networking: BSD is sockets based. MacOS is streams based. Doign sockets on top of streams is fairly easy. There is a MacOS emulator (blue box) in Rhapsody. There is some wierdness down at a low level to support this. Also, Rhapsody will be Mach 2.5 based. Not sure how this will affect anything. MkLinux was Mach 3 based, and seemed very compatible with the intel versions, but (and this could be my imagination) it did seem much slower. +C -- Thinking of purchasing RAM from the Chip Merchant?

So, Those warnings are slightly misleading, since the dependance on DOS is related to the way that freebsd creates slices. The slices are created in such a way as to be compatible with DOS partitions, so some of the same limitations exist. > If I want NT 4 as my only other OS, can I follow the FAQ and use the > NT loader to boot FreeBSD, with FreeBSD loacted in the third GB of a > 3 GB IDE hard disk, and NT occupying the first two GB?

YES, you need the Scheck_mail Lines that start with an "S" define rulesets in sendmail.cf, so this is rule check_mail Without the Scheck_mail the tests in the ruleset will be executed by wharever rule they happen to follow.

If your .cf is similar to mine, in that the existing lines at the end were mailer defs then yes, it's OK. But add the Scheck_mail to make it work :) I have a web page describing the check_* rules at http://www.beach.net/~dan that describes Claus Assman's rules (and has a link to them) It's a little out of date, missing some of the newer tricks, including this one, but reading through it should help you understand what's going on with these rules.

I have been having a terrible time getting XF86 running in a useful manner. It runs, but only at a resolution of 340 x 200. There is not much point in my installing Netscape, or any other X-Window apps until I can get 1024 x 768 I have the Greg Lehey Book and the cdroms for 2.2.5, but am still running 2.2.2.. Is there a comparable book just about running XF86 and X-Windows applications on FreeBSD? I have read the man pages and searched the mailing list archives, all to no avail. I have included my XF86Config file, and an error log should any kind and informed person be able to offer me advice. # XF86Config auto-generated by XF86Setup # # Copyright (c) 1996 by The XFree86 Project, Inc. # # Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a # copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), # to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation # the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, # and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the # Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: # # The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in # all copies or substantial portions of the Software. # # THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR # IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, # FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT.

You've left out the most important information: what hardware do you have? In any case, I was able to extract it from the log: > (--) SVGA: PCI: Matrox Unknown chipset (0x051a) rev 2, Memory @ 0xffbec000 The version of XFree86 you are trying to use dones't support the Matrox Millenium. I believe the version on CD-ROM does. You should be able to run it on your version 2.2 system, though I can't guarantee it. If that version doesn't support your board, you can get the latest version from http://www.xfree86.org/.

It is reverting to a generic card and I am sure it will only allow the one mode as a failsafe. Also, you are running a very old version of XF86 (note: it was compiled for FBSD 2.2.0) I believe 2.2.2R used XF86 3.3.? I can't remember what the minor was. To find out if your card is supported at all, I would go check www.xfree86.org and look at the readmes for Matrox chipsets, they are in the documentation section. It could be, if your card is new, that it was not supported at the time that release of xf86 came out and that you need to upgrade. The current version is 3.3.2 (I think.) Hope I was too incoherent there and that that is of some help. On Tue, 14 Apr 1998, Ken Seggerman wrote: > > Gentlemen: > > I have FreeBSD 2.2.2 running on my Gateway at home.

You will probably have to upgrade the XFree package to get better support for that card. Check the Xfree web page there are some docs there regarding setp. As an after thaought, I did get that card working on FBSD 2.2.2. When you run XF86Setup, after you setup the mouse and keyboard,select the video card and skip the detail setup. In the monitor section, there are entries for the horizontal and vert sync parameters. They are right above the big section that list verious resolutions etc. Check the docs for your monitor and enter the max rate gor hoz and ver sync on the respective lines. Apply those and complete the configuration. Once that is done a server should startx and drop you into xvidtune. Adjust the raster to your liking. Save the config and exit. Start the xserver, it the image is distorted or the monitor starts to make strange noises kill the server Ctrl+Alt+backspace or turn the monitor off. Any of those conditions indicate that the config is wrong. You should have any problems if you enter the proper parameters for the monitor. Give that a shot and let me know how it works out.

I have read a comment (I think in comp.sys.amiga.hardware) that says that it is impossible for PC floppy drives (or at least controllers) to read Amiga disks because the Amiga disks are read a track at a time, rather than a block at a time. There is also no filesystem available for FreeBSD that can decipher Amiga disks that I know of. I believe that there is one for NetBSD, but I think that might only work on m68k computers.

If the server ever dies, it takes the entire console with it. Basically, all keyboard control becomes locked out except for ctrl-alt-del, which works. Trying to switch virtual consoles with ctrl-alt-f* or just alt-f* produces a beep, and anything else does nothing. Here is what I know about the problem: The system never crashes with the X server. It always stays up, and X can actually be started again. If X is started, it generally produces some error about not being able to open the appropriate console, and starts anyway. In XF86's case, this error is "VT_ACTIVATE: cannot open console" or something along those lines. I took a look at the permissions on /dev/ttyv*. I added vty4-8 myself. All the devices are owned by root, but only ttyv0-2 belong to group "tty" and have a group writeable flag (crw--w----). I think this may have something to do with the problem. Does anyone know if there is a workaround for this? I know the keyboard lockout problem can be reproduced fairly easily. If you are running XF86, load XDM, log in, and exit. While the server is restarting, hold down some random keys. When the server comes up, it will be impossible to switch virtual consoles. (I haven't tested this since XF86 3.3, it may have been fixed since then.) If anyone knows how to resolve this, or to even correct the settings on the virtual consoles permanently, I would be extremely grateful. One more thing... can anyone recommend an appropriate way to start XDM? All I have now is a hack script in /usr/X11R6/etc/rc.d. I have been told that there is some way to do it through /etc/ttys, but I don't know how.

You're definitely best off keeping a copy of the source tree. Depending on how great your need for bleeding-edge technology is, you might be happy just to install from CD-ROM. Most of the ports are supplied on the CD-ROM as installable binary packages. Otherwise build them locally and install via NFS. Does that answer your question?

What OS version ? It's important, since the config file name has changed from /etc/system.conf to /etc/rc.conf, to have a uniq name scheme for config files. Maybe you should have a look at Greg Leheys new book "The Complete FreeBSD", which is a 500 page tutorial and the rest of it a manpage, ports, ... reference. It comes with the FreeBSD-2.2.6 CD-ROM and should help you in the process of setting the system up for network and such.

Line numbers are important, as others mentioned, and the manpage and handbook have great examples and hints... Also, blocking packets from 127.0.0.1 to panix.com (they love their nfs, don't they) will not get you anywhere. Packets are sourced from your machines IP, not the localhost address. Putting names is a general no-no in most configs, as you can't always rely on DNS, and it's easy for someone wanting to circumvent your firewall to fake. And depending on where you're blocking all that nasty udp, you might not even be able to do lookups til later in the script. That said, here's an example: #!/bin/sh ipfw add 1000 pass all from any to any via lo0 # the above is a default rule from rc.firewall, it just lets the # machine talk to itself ipfw add 2000 deny tcp from 198.7.0.2 to any ipfw add 60000 allow ip from any to any That should block access from panix. Or to panix, as it won't be able to answer... That's a really basic config, you'll find the list gets bigger as you play with it more. I generally group things further apart to make for easier reading, putting all tcp in one prefix, all udp in another, etc. You should also put the most often matched rules first, such as the "established" rule. Lots of fun to mess with, just make sure you're at the console. As you fine tune, you can start putting a "log" entry where you plan to eventually put a "deny" so you can spot all the mystery traffic and decide if you want it or not. I found a ton of random dialup accounts doing big snmp sweep probes across the network... Good luck, and remember to check out the man page. It's a little more up to date than the handbook, and it is exceptionally well written.

I've had the same problem with the XFree86 3.2 releases and older versions of FreeBSD. The problem is rooted in the X-syscons interaction and is hard to debug. I haven't experienced it with X 3.3.2 and FreeBSD 2.2.5-RELEASE, but I don't swap away from X much. > The system never crashes with the X server.

In XF86's case, this error is "VT_ACTIVATE: cannot open > console" or something along those lines. Interesting. That may be coming from xconsole.

Or natd. The transparent proxy probably depends on extensions to the divert sockets that are in 3.0, or else it hasn't been wisened to the fact that divert sockets were backported to 2.2.x.

My recollection is that the HURD is still not complete (still in alpha release). The last release on prep.ai.mit.edu is 0.2, and it's nearly a year old. I also recall that the HURD had all sorts of fancy features. The name stands for a HIRD of UNIX Replacing Daemons, and a HIRD is some other recursive acronym, of which the H stands for HURD. I never got interested enough to follow up. As far as I can tell, the Free Software Foundation has changed direction, and would rather use Linux than the HURD. Possibly people just lost interest. I have no idea whether it's better than Linux or FreeBSD, but I am sure that it would be an incredible amount of work to get it to work. You'd effectively join the development team.

I'm using mgetty on another machine for incoming fax service and login users but don't want to go through another hassle. Kernel ppp and pppd as a server should work and it works for several users but not all - that's the problem. And I'm wondering whether it's a modem/tty line discipline problem after all. So my question aims on that rc.serial /comcontrol issue. I believe comcontrol were gone in 2.x and so is rc.serial but I'm not sure how to setup my modem line discipline. Especially these crtscts and dtr (drainwait etc.) issues may be important in that context. > > The handbook, the documentation coming with mgetty and a bit of > experimentation and you should be ok to accept incoming connection > using PPP. > > > TfH > > > ____________________________ Séparateur Réponse ________________________________ > Objet : rc.serial ? > Auteur : kuku@gilberto.physik.RWTH-Aachen.DE > Date : 15/04/98 13:00 > > > > While still fighting with my pppd problems (I can now login from > linux while another can't with his linux machine) I'm wondering > whether the rc.serial mimicry is still necessary to set up the modem > line correctly. > > The problem is that the modem prematurely hangs up during link > setup so that the connection gets terminated abruptly by a cause > I havn't yet figured out. > > I'm using crtscts in the pppd script and I wonder if I have to set up > the line discipline accordingly through rc.serial or is > rc.serial gone in 2.2.5-R?

I'm using mgetty on another machine for incoming fax service and login users but don't want to go through another hassle. Kernel ppp and pppd as a server should work and it works for several users but not all - that's the problem. And I'm wondering whether it's a modem/tty line discipline problem after all.

I'm not sure what you mean. AFAIK mgetty also execs pppd once it has decided that a ppp link is desired. The normal getty - despite from being ppp 'aware' (provided things work as they should) - can pass control to pppd. Also /usr/libexec/getty can execute a chat script to answer the modem (gettytab ac option). Despite of that it uses the blocking open which blocks as long as DCD is inactive (IIRC). > > TfH > > > > ____________________________ Séparateur Réponse ________________________________ > Objet : Rép : Re: Rép : rc.serial > Auteur : kuku@gilberto.physik.RWTH-Aachen.DE > Date : 15/04/98 14:23 > > > On Wed, Apr 15, 1998 at 01:45:49PM +0200, THIERRY.HERBELOT@telspace.alcatel.fr w > rote: > > Hi > > > > I've set up a PPP server with success using user-ppp (iij-ppp) and > > mgetty : > > > > I've fetched recent sources for PPP from the FreeBSD site > > (www.freebsd.org/~brian) > > > > I've recompiled mgetty from the sources in the 3rd CD-ROM and the > > AutoPPP option. > > I'm using mgetty on another machine for incoming fax service and > login users but don't want to go through another hassle. > > Kernel ppp and pppd as a server should work and it works > for several users but not all - that's the problem. > > And I'm wondering whether it's a modem/tty line discipline problem after > all. > > So my question aims on that rc.serial /comcontrol issue. > I believe comcontrol were gone in 2.x and so is rc.serial > but I'm not sure how to setup my modem line discipline. > > Especially these crtscts and dtr (drainwait etc.) issues may be > important in that context. > > > > > The handbook, the documentation coming with mgetty and a bit of > > experimentation and you should be ok to accept incoming connection > > using PPP. > > > > > > TfH > > > > > > ____________________________ Séparateur Réponse ______________________________ > __ > > Objet : rc.serial ? > > Auteur : kuku@gilberto.physik.RWTH-Aachen.DE > > Date : 15/04/98 13:00 > > > > > > > > While still fighting with my pppd problems (I can now login from > > linux while another can't with his linux machine) I'm wondering > > whether the rc.serial mimicry is still necessary to set up the modem > > line correctly. > > > > The problem is that the modem prematurely hangs up during link > > setup so that the connection gets terminated abruptly by a cause > > I havn't yet figured out. > > > > I'm using crtscts in the pppd script and I wonder if I have to set up > > the line discipline accordingly through rc.serial or is > > rc.serial gone in 2.2.5-R?

On one I have installed Linux (Slackware) and the other is having FreeBSD-2.1.7.1 installed on it. But one with FreeBSD seems to be slower, i.e. programs executed on it run considerably slowly. Programs on both the machines are compiled with gcc. How can I raise the performance of FreeBSD machine? Thanking you in anticipation.

I read the man pages and i sort of see what it does but not really. Basically I have a shell account on a bsdi system and when I log in my shell is rlog, but its bash really. I want to setup some stuff to customize my prompt etc but nothing I seem to do under .bash_profile or .profile seem to work. I have copied over the stuff I use on my FbSD machines but guess there is a system wide config file that sets things up but dont know what it might be or if I can even change them. anyone have an answer? I know its bsdi but I figure it is a *bsd question..? thanks, keith To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 15 09:27:08 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA01580 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 15 Apr 1998 09:27:08 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.unixg.ubc.ca (root@mail.unixg.ubc.ca [137.82.27.14]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id QAA01574 for ; Wed, 15 Apr 1998 16:27:01 GMT (envelope-from jjones@unixg.ubc.ca) From: jjones@unixg.ubc.ca Received: from relay.unixg.ubc.ca [137.82.27.7] (jjones) by mail.unixg.ubc.ca with esmtp (Exim 1.71 #1) id 0yPV1Z-0003I2-00; Wed, 15 Apr 1998 09:27:01 -0700 Received: (jjones@localhost) by relay.unixg.ubc.ca (SMI-8.6/8.6.10) id JAA03858; Wed, 15 Apr 1998 09:27:01 -0700 Message-Id: <199804151627.JAA03858@relay.unixg.ubc.ca> Subject: Re: NT and FreeBSD To: fpawlak@execpc.com (Frank Pawlak) Date: Wed, 15 Apr 98 9:27:01 PDT Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-Reply-To: <199804150331.WAA00454@darkstar.connect.com>; from "Frank Pawlak" at Apr 14, 98 10:31 pm Organization: University of British Columbia Library Address: 1958 Main Mall, Vancouver, B.C.

I live in Sweden, i´m 17 years old and plays in a band called Jedematik. Our very first CD-album is on the way. One day we sat in our studio and was talking about what the how the CD-cover was going to look like... then i said: I´ve seen this real cool devil somewhere on Internet, by the time I had no idea it was your devil (i guess it´s your´s ?). But i hunted the devil all the way to you. My question is: Can we use your charming little devil on our CD-cover. And , if possible, as the bands logo? Like on T-shirts with the devil and the bands name, Jedematik. We are looking forward to hear from you. Could you please mail us back, no different what the answer is? Thank you. Hope talking to you soon....

Acutally after a bit more searching around I see that rlog is really a renamed bash. File size of rlog matches that of bash on this system, but the rcs rlog binary is only 40k or so. funny way to do things...if nothing else to confuse the hell out of things.

Doug: Nope, my entry in the passwd file it shows my shell as being /bin/rlog and when I do a set it lists bash, but under the SHELL it lists /bin/rlog. A bit of that: BASH=/bin/rlog BASH_VERSION=1.14.7(1) BLOCKSIZE=1k PWD=/usr/home/kwoody [snip] SHELL=/bin/rlog SHLVL=1 Man pages between bsdi and fbsd are very similiar for rlog. Just though it curious as why/how rlog can be used for something like this. Anyway thanks!

Somebody else was skeptical about fips. Using fips would make me nervous also. Once NT has the whole disk the only reliable way to repartition on the fly is partition magic. With fips you run the risk of losing parts of NT. Probably the least desirable method is a re-install. Wish I had better news. Partition Magic is pretty cheap and if you want to use both NT and FreeBSD it may well be worth the price.

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 having a really bad day. Could someone please help me? I am a complete network dummy, so explainations of any actions I should take would be of great help for helping me in the future. The Problem. I have after several hours of swearing managed to establish a PPP connection to my ISP via my modem. I cannot however get out on to the internet. I'm trying to use Mosaic as it came on the installation CD and getting nowhere. I'm pretty sure that my problem lies with routing. I've messed around with /etc/rc.conf but I'm not sure what I should be putting in. The setup I currently have in win95 is server assigned IP addresses and a primary DNS of 194.164.41.7 and a secondary DNS of 194.164.41.12 Not ever having been connected to any other networks I don't have an IP address of my own that I can use for my end of the link (come to think about it I don't even know if I should have one or not). Anyway I'm in dire straits and could really use some help. I'm just hoping that the help anyone can give me will help me understand things a bit better, as I'm going to be really stuffed when I get my 64k line in, if I can't figure out networking basics.

Like so many other things in life, the answer is "it depends." :) Which programs are you talking about? Are they the exact same program compiled on both systems? Are the programs heavily disk intensive? Linux' disk access subsystem uses a fast but unsafe method of access that could result in much file system damage if the system is shut down unexpectedly. FreeBSD uses a slower but much safer method that virtually ensures a healthy file system in almost all cases (except for physical disk damage). In other words, we can't help you without more details.

Well, one work-around is dont' hold down random keys while the server is restarting... seriously, i'm confused at the problem. I think it's typical for X (especially Xsun on sparcs!) to fuck up the console royally and generally run amuck when switching modes. the solution is: don't do it.

Would anyone tell me what's difference > between FreeBSD and HURD? advantages and disadvantages? GNU Hurd is a neat OS with some neat ideas. It is mach-microkernel based and it is a multiserver, which means that it has daemons for pretty much every kernel subsystem like network protocols, fileystems, and so on. HOWEVER, the Hurd is very early in development. It is unstable. It is slow. It lacks a lot of hardware support. It has a miniscule user community. Most of the nifty capabilities are just being used to emulate a decent stable system like freebsd or linux at this point, and thus are not really terribly exciting to the end user. If you're a kernel hacker, then you may or may not find the Hurd very exciting. Regardless, I think it would be safe to say that any definition of the word "power" (such as speed, robustness, stability, scalability) you are probably interested in, linux and freebsd beat the Hurd hands down (at least for now). -- Steve Farrell To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 15 13:32:40 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA04229 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 15 Apr 1998 13:32:40 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from euthyphro.uchicago.edu (euthyphro.uchicago.edu [128.135.21.31]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA03990 for ; Wed, 15 Apr 1998 20:31:36 GMT (envelope-from sfarrell@phaedrus.uchicago.edu) Received: from phaedrus.uchicago.edu (phaedrus [128.135.21.10]) by euthyphro.uchicago.edu (8.8.6/8.8.4) with ESMTP id PAA22082; Wed, 15 Apr 1998 15:31:28 -0500 (CDT) Received: (from sfarrell@localhost) by phaedrus.uchicago.edu (8.8.8/8.8.5) id PAA03967; Wed, 15 Apr 1998 15:31:26 -0500 (CDT) To: Giannis Vlachos Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: root emails References: From: sfarrell+lists@farrell.org Mime-Version: 1.0 (generated by tm-edit 7.108) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Date: 15 Apr 1998 15:31:26 -0500 In-Reply-To: Giannis Vlachos's message of "Wed, 15 Apr 1998 10:51:20 +0300 (EET DST)" Message-ID: <87wwcqkesh.fsf@phaedrus.uchicago.edu> Lines: 12 X-Mailer: Gnus v5.6.3/XEmacs 20.4 - "Emerald" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Giannis Vlachos writes: > What can i do, if i don't wont to take the automatic generated mails from > root.

For starters, I think you're better off buying the CD. However, if you're like me, and want to do it that hard way, download the following files to a working DOS/Junkows machine: utilities/fdimage.exe floppies/boot.flp bin/* these are relative to ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.2.6-RELEASE and they not be exact paths. Use fdimage to make a boot floppy from boot.flp. Now, choose one of these: 1) copy the files bin/* to a DOS partition (NOT FAT32!) 2) copy the files to a disk since I never got the first way to work, I can't tell you much about it. If you chose 2, copy the files to a directory named "bin" at the root of the floppy. Make sure that the files bin.inf and install.sh are on the 1st floppy. Boot from the install floppy, and follow the instructions on screen. Note, that you cannot select all the packages/dists you want! You only downloaded the 'bin' dist, which is the absolute minimum. You will be able to install more dists/packages later. If you want ANY data on your hard drive, back it up! The installation program will warn you, but it warns you about so many things that I ignored most of its warnings. If you still want to keep Junkows on your PC, either buy a hard drive, use fips, make another partition, ... YOU'VE BEEN WARNED! [:-] If what I told you above sound too complex or dangerous, you're alot better off buying the CD. Have fun! ;-) P.S. If you don't understand something, ask us again.

You should probably track this down first before picking apart the software setup. My guess would be modem incompatibility.

If it will be a server, I think you should use your new computer. If you want it to replace a Junkows or Mac box, it will perform the same on the old computer as Junkwows on the new one. (I'm assuming a 486/66 old and P166 new) I suggest, that if you don't know alot (or anything) about UNIX, you're better off installing it on your old computer, and if it works fine, you can try to install it on the new one. If you can wait a reasonable amount of time for a CD, that'll be a good idea as well. If you are anxious like I was, you ca install the minimum, and hope that you don't screw up too much. Generally, it can peasefully co-exist with Junkows, however, you have to know what you're doing. All it really needs, is a separate slice (partition in DOS terms) P.S.

At least as far as I can find. ncurses 4.1 and SLang's curses emulator both include it. The authors of mutt, my favorite mailer, may soon include the use of this function in mutt. (mutt 0.91, the latest release does not use it) I currently substitute ((stdscr)->_attrs) in place of attr_get(). Apparently, just about every other OS has the function. Have I missed something? If it really is missing mutt would probably have to add a facility to config to check for attr_get and if it didn't exist #define NO_ATTR_GET in config.h and modify the code appropriately. I suspect they aren't going to want to do this. Another solution is to simply build mutt with the SLang package. -- Brian Litzinger To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 15 15:01:10 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA26362 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 15 Apr 1998 15:01:10 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from echonyc.com (echonyc.com [198.67.15.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id WAA26266 for ; Wed, 15 Apr 1998 22:00:36 GMT (envelope-from suleyman@echonyc.com) Received: from localhost (suleyman@localhost) by echonyc.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id RAA17446 for ; Wed, 15 Apr 1998 17:58:50 -0400 (EDT) Date: Wed, 15 Apr 1998 17:58:50 -0400 (EDT) From: Ken Seggerman To: freebsd-questIONS@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: XFree86 & Matrox Mystique In-Reply-To: <8767kalu4q.fsf@phaedrus.uchicago.edu> 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 Thanks for all your help.

You don't mention an /etc/resolv.conf file. Mine looks like: nameserver 205.238.128.39 ns.realtime.net nameserver 205.238.128.42 ns2.realtime.net These are the primary and secondary nameservers at my ISP. I'm assuming you can make a ppp connection OK. If the /etc/resolv.conf does not exist, then create one with your favorite text editor. The format is: nameserverIP_numberalias Read also the man page for resolv.conf. And, refer to Brian Somers' docs on user ppp at www.awfulhack.org. *Very* helpful. > Anyway I'm in dire straits and could really use some help.

Download everything you want. "What is that?", you ask? Well, as posted already, get fdimage.exe from the utilities and boot.flp from the floppy directories. With these, and at the dos prompt (don't run windoze) type fdimage boot.flp a: This will create a bootable floppy version of FreeBSD and the installer. Get the rest of the files you want, everything in bin, at the very least. Where to put these files. Unlike others, I had a very easy time doing the install from dos. But, you must have the distribution files in a particular directory structure. Like this: c:\freebsd\bin c:\freebsd\doc etc.... If you are installing on a machine where there will be dos on one partition, then you will need to run fips, another utility from the FreeBSD site. Run defrag first to make sure that the rest of the drive is clear. Then BACKUP EVERYTHING. Now run fips. It looks pretty arcane, but if you think about it, all you are doing is dividing up the disk into two halves so that dos no longer sees the second half. (Assuming it is by half you wish to divide the disk - just think of it as available resource. What is not dos is FreeBSD and so forth.) If you did it ok, the machine will act like its disk is half the size it was. Now stick the boot floppy in the slot and reboot. Follow the instructions for a minimal novice install from dos. (Assuming only the bin directory has been downloaded.) Say yes when asked if you want the boot manager. That will allow you to boot into dos or FreeBSD. When it comes to setting up filesystems, just let it auto select these. Until you feel comfortable setting your own up these will work with most min install configs where you have 200 MB or so as a minimum. >From here it ought to work just fine. Set up your root password and an alternative user. Do allow this alternate user (that's you) to have super user priveleges. As an alternative, you can do an ftp install. But you will need the port and irq of where you modem is. Mine on sio1 (com2) at 0x2f8 with irq 3. sio0 is com1. Now before anything else go and reread the documents at FreeBSD. Then backup and go for it!

Short question, not really FreeBSD related, but still: I want to nfs mount /usr/X11R6 on our workstations. Our machines do not all have the same graphics adapters, so the 'X' symlink in /usr/X11R6/bin should point to different server binaries for different machines. This is probably not easily done :) (Hmmm... amd, maybe?) Do I need the X symlink. Can I bypass it somehow?

It's so far from what you think it is that you must have different man pages. rlog displays the log entries of the RCS source code revision control system.

You might be confusing it with rlogin, a program which establishes a network connection.

You can configure them statically (which you need to do) or by PnP (which you need to disable). Use the driver disk that was provided with your adapter or download the image from ftp.3com.com and use the install or 3c5x9cfg program to set it up. Use the `Auto Configure' button to get the best settings and Disable Plug & Play. Feed the settings given to the card to the ep device on FreeBSD and you will be set to go.

The crunched executable is a collection of the programs and libraries and is hardlinked for each individual executable so crunched. The sizes will completely throw you off (esp. if you use du) but df will have the correct values. All that's in there that's useful is sysinstall, if you aren't going to be using it for installing packages, etc. then you can dump it. You can always rebuild it later. If root is damaged then you have bigger problems.

Ports are basically sets of patches to the source distributions for their respective programs, guled together with a Makefile. Packages are simply .tar.gz archives of built ports.

How do I login as root. Ideally, you create a user for yourself and do all work as that user. That keeps down on the number of possible ``accidents'' (ie removing the wrong files). If you need superuser priviledges run the `su' command and give it the root password when prompted. To exit superuser mode just `exit' the shell.

So with ports you need to actually do the compiling (though it *should* go very smoothly since the required patches will have been applied); with packages you just install (with pkg_add). The advantage to ports is that they are more current... sometimes packages can be quite out of date. also there are not as many packages as there are ports for the same reason. -- Steve Farrell To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Apr 15 19:33:40 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA05788 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 15 Apr 1998 19:33:40 -0700 (PDT) (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 TAA05706 for ; Wed, 15 Apr 1998 19:33:28 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by gdi.uoregon.edu (8.8.7/8.8.8) with SMTP id TAA05804; Wed, 15 Apr 1998 19:32:01 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dwhite@gdi.uoregon.edu) Date: Wed, 15 Apr 1998 19:32:01 -0700 (PDT) From: Doug White Reply-To: Doug White To: Capriotti cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Setting up local FTP server for installation In-Reply-To: <3.0.32.19691231210000.00a28100@pop.mpc.com.br> 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 Thu, 16 Apr 1998, Capriotti wrote: > Hi All ! > > I am trying to set up my 2.2.5 box to be the FTP server that will provide > the files to an FTP install. > > I've got all the files on my HD, but I can't move them to /var/ftp/pub due > to lack of space. > > how do I set up ftpd to see where files are ?

I would like to bring up a couple more systems on HP Netserver E45's (which I do not have yet so cannot test). I've always liked HP gear but have frequently found it to be slightly nonstandard. Is anyone actually running a current FreeBSD on one of these boxes? From past experience, I'm worried about the compatibility of a) the on-board SCSI adapter, b) the IDE CD-ROM, and c) the NIC. I've searched the archives for "Netserver" (and variants) but can't find anything conclusive. Thanks!

Yes, I was beginning to suspect that. I suppose that whoever did it was not aware of the RCS program rlog.

Contact Kirk McKusick (mckusick@mckusick.com). He allows free use of the daemon image for products which contain BSD source code. It looks as if your CD won't, so I'm afraid he probably won't allow its use, but that's his decision. Oh, and by the way, to quote him: > Also, he does not have a name.
