Hi there.
I am currently running 2.2.7, with natd sharing the local subnet with an
external cable modem via two ne2000 cards. The local is ed0, and the cable
modem is on ed1. Everything is working prefectly, and I have several
redirect_port commands set up to refer some incoming connections to other
machines on the local network.
Due to the cable co. discontinuing the cable modems (short sighted, in my
opinion) I need to switch back to a dial-up. Assuming I get ppp working
and configured, do I just replace "ed1" with "tun0", and defer running natd
until after the dial-up has been established to continue using it and all
it's redirects? My ISP has given me a static IP, so at least that's not a
problem..
Thanks in advance,
Rob.

It is hard. But start with the handbook. And I highly recommend The
Complete FreeBSD book which you can find through the website. And my
diary might help. I recently installed Apache. See below for details.

Hi;
I just installed FreeBSD rel 2.2.7 and tried to su to root by first
editing /etc/group and adding/replaceng the word 'root' on the first
line with the name of the user to su to root.
i.e wheel:*:0:admin # admin is network administrator to be able
to # su to root
and a second time by changing the whole line to:
wheel:*:0:root,admin
the problem persisted
------ I reinstalled rel. 2.2.7 --------
When I am loged-in as admin an typed su I get the following error
message after a wait of 5-8 secs:
Aug 15 05:54:58 myname /kernel: pid 208 (su), uid 0: exited on signal 11
segmentation fault
the pid number changes but everything else is the same
an does not let me su to root
What is this?
Thanks in advance
Daniel B

You want something like xtnpd. Check my website for details on how I

I use almost the same disk with 3.0-SNAP. The first time I install that disk I
met the same problem. You can fix that by hand:
1. With fdisk set disk geometry 2055 cyls, 255 hds, 63 sect,
then edit FreeBSD slice and set correct start and end sectrors, and slice
size
2. With disklabel edit FreeBSD slice and set correct partitions sizes
After that you can do newfs, whatever etc, and ignore wdc messages about disk
geometry.

OK, thanks for the info. I have now changed printjob.c so that removing
files containing '/' still is forbidden except when it starts with
'/var/spool/samba/'. It's ugly but works. But, I think this behaviuor
should be stated in the manual page of lpr. Now it says:
-r Remove the file upon completion of spooling or upon completion of
printing (with the -s option).
-s Use symbolic links. Usually files are copied to the spool direc-
tory. The -s option will use symlink(2) to link data files
rather than trying to copy them so large files can be printed.
Thanks again,
-Andre

A 'serious' way to fix this (IMHO) would be to make lpd su to the user
that requested the printout before removing any file at all. But this
would probably be very hard to do ... Obvious catch: a remote user
might print without even having an account on the host where lpd
runns.

I thought of similar things but haven't come to a handy solution yet...
I don't know a lot about lpr/lpd interaction and how the cf files
are created and how remote printing works in detail. But maybe one day
I'll have a look at this.
It's really annoying, especially because samba prints with 'lpr -r -s'...

hi!
please, re: directly to me, since i;m not subscribed to this list
anymore.
I'm planning to do some programming w/Java on FreeBSD (FreeBSD
2.2.5-RELEASE). is this a stable platform for java? what's the best java
compiler to use? JIT?
any ideas / URLs/ documentation will be greatly appreciated
TIA!

You are right, a rebuild of GENERIC should work fine; it does on my
2.2.5 system. However, here are some thoughts:
1) Is your 2.2.7 system an upgrade from an older verion of FreeBSD? How
did you do your upgrade? If only some of the files were upgraded while
others were not and you attempted a rebuild, I can see all sorts of
potential problems with that.
2)You mentioned that this was a new drive. Is there an older copy of
FreeBSD on an older drive? Might your system be trying to boot from this
older drive?
3) The first time you did your build, the good kernel should have been
saved as /kernel.old Save a copy of this as something else. (On your
second rebuild the good kernel in kernel.old will be gone) When I am
screwing around with a new kernel, I always keep a copy of this saved as
"kernel.good" in case I really mess things up.
You can specify a particular kernel to boot from at the
"boot:" prompt.
Good luck,
Dave

I have been using 2.2.6 on a new install for about six weeks and having a
wonderful time.
I just received the 2.2.7 release and now pppd reports that +ua is now an
unrecognized option. I am using this setup to connect to ibm.net which uses
pap.
Do I need to recompile something? The kernel? The ppp daemon?
As an aside, what happened to netscape on the cd?
Thank you all for your attention.

Dear sir or madam:
If I installed FreeBSD on my computer, would it overwrite DOS, or would it make a seperate drive on the hard drive like say d:\
or something like that. If that's what it does, then great. If not,
will it overwrite DOS, or can I run it from the floppy disks. Is there anyway
is there anyway to do these things, or will I eventually have to overwrite DOS?
Please Help

Again, no. FreeBSD uses its own partition, which means you must install a
boot manager, to choose which OS you will boot from (for you DOS or
FreeBSD). You will find all your answers at
http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/multios/multios.html

I dunno, but this have been discussed on the mailing list recently I
think. Check http://www.freebsd.org/search.

Subject: ipfw IP_FW_MAX_PORTS limit?
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk
X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG
With the desire to "safely" pass H.323 conferencing through a firewall, the
standard 10-port limit for ipfw is about to be overrun. Reading the notes
in ip_fw.h, it indicates that struct ip_fw *must* be smaller than MLEN
(108).
Does someone know how large IP_FW_MAX_PORTS can be before this limit is
reached?
Thanks!
Jeff

I must have boogered something up somewhere, but I don't know where.
This is what happens.
===> Verifying install for qt\.1\. in /usr/ports/x11/qt
>> No directory for qt\.1\.. Skipping..
Of course, my build later dies saying it can't find qt. This is just one
example. It happens with other LIB_DEPENDS too.
It used to be that all DEPENDS would be fetched and built if they did not
already exist.
Where can I fix this?

I'd like to make a customized Fix-It floppy for my system.
I tried mounting and editing a standard Fix-It floppy; but,
that didn't seem to work (the edits don't seem to stick).
Any suggestions on how that could be done? Thanks for any
input.

I ran across this posting in the freebsd-questions archives.
I too have the same problem with the exact same CD-ROM drive (came from
a Packard Bell P133 system). Did you ever find an answer for this? I
can't even get my CD-ROM to play...just the kernel message about the cd
being busy and Xmcd says "CD Busy".
Thanks for you help,

Hi,
I used to run ppp in user mode on FreeBSD2.2.6 with no problem.
Then, I wanted to use natd for all computer of my network to be able to
connect to the Internet.
I followed the recommendation of "the complete FreeBSD" book and of the FreeBSD Handbook :
- I've build my kernel with :
pseudo-device bpfilter 4
options IPFIREWALL
options IPDIVERT
- I've changed values in rc.conf by :
firewall_enable="YES" # Set to YES to enable firewall functionality
firewall_type="client" # Firewall type (see /etc/rc.firewall)
firewall_quiet="NO" # Set to YES to suppress rule display
tcp_extensions="NO" # Allow RFC1323 & RFC1644 extensions (or NO).
network_interfaces="ppp0 lo0 tun0 ed0" # List of network interfaces (lo0 is loo
pback).
ifconfig_tun0=
ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1" # default loopback device configuration.
ifconfig_ed0="inet 192.168.0.1" # the interface to my private network
- I created /etc/rc.firewall with only the follwing lines :
/sbin/ipfw -f flush
/sbin/ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via tun0
/sbin/ipfw add pass all from any to any
- When I reboot, I get the message :
IP packet filtering initialized, divert enabled, logging disabled
Then when I run ppp, dial is OK, tun0 is assigned a dynamic IP adress, but
if I ping an outside IP I get no response, but I can still ping an inside IP
adress.
# netstat -in
Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Coll
ed0 1500 <Link> 00.40.05.60.85.25 2456 0 2381 0 0
ed0 1500 192.168 192.168.0.1 2456 0 2381 0 0
tun0 1500 <Link> 2742 0 3385 0 0
tun0 1500 193.51.24 193.51.24.17 2742 0 3385 0 0
ppp0* 1500 <Link> 0 0 0 0 0
lo0 16384 <Link> 0 0 0 0 0
lo0 16384 127 127.0.0.1 0 0 0 0 0
# ifconfig -a
ed0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255
ether 00:40:05:60:85:25
tun0: flags=8050<POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ppp0: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
If I change the firewall rules by doing
set firewall=client; sh /etc/rc.firewall.old
(where rc.firewall.old is the default rc.firewall, ppp works)
Perhaps must I keep this configuration for natd ?
anyway, in the two case, if I run
natd -use_sockets -same_ports -unregistered_only -dynamic -interface tun0
pinging something outside from another inside computer doesn't work.
Any idea ?
Thanks for help,
Tuyet Tram DANG NGCO

Subject: problem with samba sometime it works, sometime not

Hi,
When I run "smbd -D" at boot time (in /usr/local/etc/rc.d)
or in command line, sometimes it works well : it becomes a daemon and accept
connection of clients, but sometimes it just hangs and nothing can't stop it
but a ^C (so if it is started at boot times, boot wait samba to launch, and
can't continue until I press ^C)
But I can't figure in what situation it works or not.
Did someone had something like this happens before ?
Thanks for reply,
Tuyet Tram DANG NGOC

Hi!
I want to install FreeBSD 2.2.7 on the secondary master.
When I tried to do it i've got normal win95 start up from my primary
master.
The boot manager appears only when I make my FreeBSD drive a primary
master.
How can I install it on secondary so, that I could have a choise whether
start
my win95 from primary drive or msdos or FreeBSD from seconadary?
Thank you very much!

I'm sure this mail would better be served heading to the FreeBSD ports
mailing list. (and with that, CC's it to there)

Dear Masters,
My name is Renato Ribeiro Faria, I am a student of the Computer science
in a college located in Goiás-Brazil.
The classroom was divided in groups for research about one opereting
system. My group and i chose the Unix BSD because we know that the unix
is the best, the more consistent and fast S.O..
So, now we are needing materials about architecture, process
management, memory management and file management. We know you are the
Best regards to help us.

yes the 2940 along with most adaptec controllers are supported. i hardly
think lack of support for an i/o controller is reason to revert to an M$
product..

Yep, it gives a "bad shell" error if not. And it's the same shell that I'm
using (no typo's either).

I can telnet in just fine. I've also tried changing the password a few times
and tried changing the login, same thing.
> Can the other users added the same way log in too?
I tried it on my desktop machine and got the same result a few weeks ago
but didn't bother digging into it yet. Looking now at master.passwd, the
ones that aren't working have a password field of only 13 characters long
whereas the ones that do work have a length of 34 characters. Could there
be a connection there? Also what would cause the shorter encrypted
passwords?
Vince.

Yes it is hard; but the if you want to use Apache, you'll have to
learn how to wade thru' manuals anyway. The Handbook is a good place
to start.

Hi,
I understand about many hardware issue mentioned and FreeBSD...
***** HOWEVER *******
What about the new AGP video card slot motherboards and FreeBSD?
Does the release version that is stable support AGP at this point?
This is important in my upcoming purchase decisions...otherwise I will
buy an all PCI slot motherboard. I would rather however look towards the
future and buy an AGP port motherboard.
Thank you for any insights and advice you can give me.
sincerely,
Ben Franco
bfranco@rio.com
P.S. Maybe you can post your answer on the Questions page? Others may be
curious too. Thank You.

Subject: How can I remove booteasy?
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk
X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG
Every time I install FreeBSD I get Booteasy. With every new install I
try to NOT have installed, but no matter what I do it installs.
Just installed 2.2.7 and not only Booteasy was installed, but for the
first time I am not able to get rid of it. I use OS/2 boot manager.
How I installed 2.2.7: Did label without going into partitioning.
Deleted old mount points (slices?) and did new ones (I wanted to
change the space allocation). Continue with install. I was not asked
if I wanted boot easy or not.
After install finished I reboot and found Booteasy install. At first
it seemed to be working; I was able to go into win95, OS/2 and
FreeBSD. This morning I was not able to go into Win95 and when I went
into OS/2 I got OS/2's boot manager and still could not boot Win95.
>From OS/2 tried re-installing the boot manager. Tried deleting the
FreeBSD partition. Finally I boot from a win95 floppy and did "sys
c:". I STILL get booteasy, but at least now I can get into win95.
Questions
-How do I get rid of booteasy so I can re-install OS/2 boot manager?
-What do I have to do TO NOT GET booteasy. With every install I have
ever done of FreeBSD I have tried at one point or another all three
boot options (Boot manager, normal and leave boot record alone) and
it seems boot easy get's installed no matter what. At least on
previous versions I was able to re-install OS/2 boot manager.

though. I'm using a ATI AGP @Play with no problems under XFree86.

Good luck finding a new motherboard without AGP ports.

We got the following message in one of our servers with FreeBSD 2.2.2-RELEASE.
I have never seen it before, but it appeared constantly so I rebooted the
machine and everything seems fine.
What does it mean?
rtfree: 0xf22bab00 not freed (neg refs)
Thanks for your time!

Hi,
I am in Australia and was attempting to get my hands on FreeBSD and read the
artilce FAQ 1.12.
This article relating to obtaining CDROM from sites in Australia is
outdated. I attempted to contact Advanced Multimedia Distributors and
CDROM Support BBS. They are now residential telephone numbers. Advanced
Multimedia Distributors do not list as a business anymore. I could not find
out about CDROM Support BBS as they were in Western Australia.
I was wondering if you know of anyone else who distribute FreeBSD CD's in
Australia?
Regards.
Howe Chin

The fact that they have the same suffix does not require a great deal of
perpescuity to determine. Thus the fact that they have the same core code
is not a great surprise. The real question is have they evolved for
different purposes i.e. netbsd geared towards networking apps?

FreeBSD: good, solid, easy to use system on Intel only (in fact, this
is no longer completely true: a version for Alpha is becoming
available)
NetBSD: As many platforms as possible. More of a hacker's operating
system.
OpenBSD: Derived from NetBSD. Specifically addresses security issues.

Hi,
I received FreeBSD 2.2.7 a few days ago from Walnut Creek and decided
today would be a good day to start at it. I am using a Pentium-75 with
16mb RAM and a Seagate 2.1GB hard drive. I currently run Windows95 with
FAT32 installed on the Seagate. I know that the version of FIPS does not
work with FAT32 so I went off onto the FreeBSD ftp site and downloaded the
newest version. It is FIPS 1.5C and as you probably know, it does support
FAT32.
I followed all the instructions, I made a boot disk, put the fips files
onto it, ran Scandisk and Defrag (the Win95 versions), I shoved in the
floppy, ran the proper Shutdown sequence in Win95 and reset. FIPS
recognized it was FAT32 and all the information provided seemed to fit
everything described in FIPS.DOC. However, when it comes to the part when
I select the size of the paritition it will only gives me upto 15.8MB
(1014-1021 cylinders) to create it with (even though I have about 980MB
free on the disk).
So I decided to disable the Virtual memory, I ran DEFRAG again. It still
would only give me a max of 15.8MB. So I rebooted (put back the Virtual
memory and such) and ran DEFRAG just to see what the drive looks like. It
seems that there is some "Data that will not be moved" (As the Microsoft
Defrag legend puts it) near the end of the drive (I assume probably at the
1013 cylinder).
Is there any way to get around this with FIPS, or any other program
(Partition Magic)? Are there any programs that can identify certain those
sectors so I can delete them? I would like to avoid reformatting the drive,
but I will if I have to.
Thanks in advance,

I've been following this thread and checked out the man entry for xntpd
which suggested that a default configuration file /etc/ntp.conf would exist.
I haven't found any man entries which describe the format of this file. Is
there somewhere a sample conf file can be obtained for xntpd?

Shortened password entries usually come from installing the DES
distribution. Your ftp server should pick it up though. Which one are
you using?

Erm, try

This disk is 'dangerously dedicated', right?

Of course! 'off' disables the line to init.

Hope you have operator privileges to shutdown -h the system, then hop in

Defrag won't move files that are have the system, hidden, and maybe the
readonly attributes set. Doing a dir /ah /s, dir /as /s, or dir /ar /s will
list all the files with those attributes. Then you can remove the
attributes, defrag, and re-set them. This may break some older
copy-protection schemes (I happen to know of one that actually does track
the cluster a file occupies), but since you already have FAT32, you
probably don't have that problem (meaning FAT32 would break them anyways).

Remove the attribs, defrag, re-set attribs, do FIPS.

You need a new X server with a hacked driver. See

Try running 'add 0 0 HISADDR' after connecting.

The remote did not respond to an ARP query.

First of all, what brand/model of ethernet cards do you have? Are you

In rc.conf, you must have
gateway=yes
set in /etc/rc.conf. Also double check your ipfw setup.

Hm, there is no net route for your de card, so the system doesn't know how
to return packets to that address. Try re-ifconfiging the de card and
make sure a route shows up for it. If not, then add one.

AFAIK FreeBSD hasn't tried to maintain binary compatibility to NetBSD,
although if it builds on NetBSD it should compile on FreeBSD.

Hello all,
I have some trouble in using some X applications like mpeg2play, xgrasp
etc.
The trouble is that libkrb.so.3.0 is not installed on my FreeBSD
system. I tried to find where it is, searching all packages-current
directory in /pub/FreeBSD, adding not a few packages, but all in
vain..
The things which I'd like to know are;
1) what the "libkrb.so.3.0" standing for?
2) how can I register the libray into my system?
Thanks in advance

You probably confused the heck out of the network code by moving the
networks around without reifconfiging. Simply `ifconfig xx0 down;
ifconfig xx0 up' should clear it up.

Hello,
I used to run FreeBSD a few years ago and am looking forward to running it again
now. How is the support for laptops now? I've got a Toshiba Tecra 510 and a
Toshiba Tecra 780. Will I have any luck installing FreeBSD on either of these
machines? Anybody have any experience with this?
Thanks
Matt

Hi
Does anyone know if I can run an XServer compiled for Linux on FreeBSD
2.2.7? The reason is that there is an XServer for Linux that is not
available for my video chipset (SiS 5597). I tried it, but it said
something about ioctl not implemented, and it was also looking for
/etc/ttyX instead of /etc/ttyvX. I tried symlinking but that didn't
work.
If anyone's got experience doing this let me know.
Thx

If these two machines are on the same network, you can make the PPro an
NFS server, and mount the build results on the 486. See section 12.5 of

I need daemon listenning on port 110 (pop3) which will send response file to
each client who make connection. We move server to other location and I need
tell my clients via new mail from this dummy daemon something like "Please
change your POP Server to blabla... and look http://somewhere/something for
more datils". Is there easy way for this kind of autorespond? I need daemon
without password checking (every login & password will be accepted) with
ability of file or text line sending. Ideas?

I don't recall installing DES, but I may very well have when I upgraded
it from 2.1.0 to 2.2.6. It appears that any user added since the upgrade
not only has the shorter encrypted password but also cannot ftp in (the
machine only has a couple of users). The ftpd I'm using is wu-ftpd 2.4.2
which was also installed before the upgrade. I may try proftpd since I
found mention of a problem with wu-ftpd and logins in the email archives,
unfortunately there wasn't much info there about the problem.
Vince.

I have had this problem with other audio programs as well. I don't get

Many thanks for soem inputs.
Most told me to look for config files (rc files) and check file perms of
the cdrom.
I've done all this and no chance. Here is what ddd tells me about the core
file:
Core was generated by `kscd'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.
Cannot access memory at address 0x20042080.
#0 0x0 in ?? ()
Anybody ideas?

Hi folks,
I have a fairly fresh 2.2.7 box with NOMANCOMPRESS=true commented out
of make.conf. When I pkg_delete packages I built and installed out of
the ports tree, it invariably warns me about manpages that "don't really
exist".
I've checked that the pages _do_ exist before the pkg_delete, and also
that they _don't_ exist after the pkg_delete. I've checked the open PR's
and -questions mail archives for clues and haven't found anybody else
experiencing this problem.
Any ideas what could be causing the apparently bogus warnings on my
system?
Thanks,
Sheldon.

Hi,
I have 3 hard drivers:
Maxtor 4.3G /dev/wd2s1 FreeBSD-2.2.6
Seagate 1.2G /dev/wd1s1 RedHat Linux 5.1
Quantum 3.2G /dev/wd0s1 M$ Windows 95
BTW, FreeBSD and Linux does not share swap space.
I have ext2fs compiled within my kernel:
options "EXT2FS"
When I mount the Linux driver with command:
mount_ext2fs /dev/wd1s1 /mnt/linux
the following messages appears:
Aug 17 19:52:59 wph /kernel: wd1s1: raw partition size != slice size

Despite of these messages, ext2fs has been mounted and files can be
copyed between FreeBSD disk and Linux disk. But these lines are a
bit annoying. Who can account for this.
I have even tried:
mount_ext2fs -o rdonly /dev/wd1s1 /mnt/linux
but those messages still appears.
Thanks,
Peihan Wang

Hi,
I am planning to install BSD from home-made CDROM [ISO9660] of the
distribution, but am concerned about source filenames that get truncated
to 8.3.
I noticed that the 'BIN' dist filenames are all 8.3 compliant, but what
about other dists?
Thx,

Hello!
I got a process (bash) that is not killed even by kill -9.
and it blocks my ttyv0. What the hell is that? ;-)

Thanx in advance.

Hello everybody,
I just wanted to ask whether the
AHA-2940UW
controller is supported under 2.2.7-RELEASE
How about 2940U2W?
I am sorry to ask, but searching the mailinglists-archive seems to be
impossible right now...
best regards and many thanks

Bonjour tous,
I can't start FreeBSD 2.2.6 on the PC.
It goest upto the "login: " line, and
it hangs without any error display.
Well, last time I launched, it worked perfectly.
On this machine, I have
(1) Windows NT 4.0 SP3
(2) Windows 95
(3) FreeBSD 2.2.6
And, as the partitions, I have 3 partitions;
(1) C: wcd0s1 (Windows 95 bootable / WinNT bootable)
2.2 GB
(2) wcd0s2 (FreeBSD native): in here, I have 800 MB
(3) D: wcd0s3 (Only data)
1.2 GB
As it doesn't want me to boot from FreeBSD.
I tried to reinstall it. BUT...
FreeBSD 2.2.6 Partition doesn't accept 2 DOS partitions
in it.
Isn't it possible that because of this, FreeBSD didn't
want to boot ? or others ?
If you have the same experience, please tell me...
For X, I made "exec kdm" in rc.local.
Cheers for your help.

Hello !
I want to hear comments about Quantum Viking II hard drives. Are these drives
good for use with NCR875 controller ? I have heard that some other Quantum
drives have faulty firmware, so I need comments from real-life before buying.
Thanks

I have a glidepoint style laptop touchpad.
To use the buttons lefthanded style, I use:
xmodmap -e "pointer = 3 2 1"
in my .xinitrc.
However, the touchpad is designed to simulate a button 1 click when you
quickly double-touch the pad itself. The above xmodmap command rewrites
that to a button 2 click, which is undesirable.
Any solution?
Best regards

Check my website for details on how I did this. [I won't name the
software I did because I got it wrong last time <grin>] See the URL below

Bis jetzt habe ich immer nur als root gearbeitet/experimentiert .
Also Sachen wie mSQL und Apache zum Starten in /etc/rc.local eingetragen
.
Wie aber mache ich es, wenn ich neue user angelegt habe :
zum Beispiel :
user A: soll ganz normal starten, nichts besonders
user B: X soll gleich starten (ohne weitere Eingaben) .
Wie bzw. wo finde ich diese scripte, um sie entsprechend zu ändern
(name) ?

Don't worry. You won't be walking the DOG during the installation :)
(Not One Byte (tm)).
The ISO-9660 fs handles translations, assuming the CDROM was well-burnt.

Up to now I operated in each case as root. Thus things as mSQL
and Apache for
starting in / etc/rc.local entered.
As however I make it, if I created new user: for example:
user A: quite normally, nothing is to start particularly
user B: X is to start directly (without further inputs).
How or where I find this scripte, in order it to modify
accordingly (name)?

_The_ book you want on this subject is Mac McKussick's book about 4.4BSD.
Actually, Mac isn't the only author. Anyway,
http://cseng.aw.com/bookdetail.qry?ISBN=0-201-54979-4&ptype=0
points to a short description and you can order it online, it looks like.
There's that book, and also "The Magic Garden Explained" is a great book
about SysV internals, which is similar in some ways, very different in
others. You might want to get that book for contrast. Sometimes, when
trying to learn how something works, it's helpful to find out about
another implementation that is completely different.
Other than that, if you know C really well, reading through the code
in the BSD source tree would be a good thing to do. If you go to
ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu/systems, (i think), there are several unix
source trees to choose from, including 4.3BSD Reno or Tahoe, which are
slightly older than the code FreeBSD comes from.
Good luck!

Yes. http://www.freebsd.org/
But you should probably just use his cd-rom -- it would make for a MUCH
faster install.

Bitten Sie um eine Mensoftware? Wenn so, wuenschen Sie "mc".
Ich bin sicher, da es einen Port fuer den irgendwo gibt,
aberich nicht wo wei.
die gleiche Sache sich mit Entdeckung und grep zu tun wuerde
ziemlich schwierig sein, und die Mens auf dem Bildschirm
wuerde extrem lang sein. Lange Mens verfehlen den Zweck.
(translation:
Do you want a menu program? Then you want "mc". doing it with
grep and find would be messy. [very condensed translation]

For adding domains to DNS, it's the same as with everywhere else.

What service(s) do you want to VD? The only thing you have to do
FreeBSD-wise is add an alias to the interface for the VD's IP, and that's
documented in /etc/rc.conf. Everything else is package-specific.
Good starting points:

The FreeBSD Handbook and FAQ are generated from LinuxDoc (and in the
future DocBook) DTD SGML. The formatter tool, sgmlfmt, spits out HTML,
PostScript, Latin-1 ASCII, nroff, and LaTeX too if prodded. All these
tools are available in the ports tree.

I'm using one, except it has no auto termination at all, so you'll
need to get a terminator for the internal SCSI cable. I'm also using it
on a Asus 875. For the money though, for with an Atlass II, much better
by and worth the little bit of extra money.

At the selection screen arrow down to 'none', hit the spacebar, *then*
return. If you just hit return you select 'OK' to install BootEasy and
don't change the radiobutton. With libdialog you have to get into the
habit of using space to select and enter to proceed.

That was overkill....

Simply run fdisk /mbr, then run fdisk again and select the Bootmanager
partition as the active one.

Somehow you lost the line
controller scbus0
Put that back in the kernel config and rebuild.

Yes, you can freely download FreeBSD at ftp://ftp.freebsd.org , but, no,
you won't get a free CD with it :)

Oh, I did that on any actual operation. I finally found the problem.
In the handbook, it shows that you have to do a dd of two sectors before
you begin, which is what my original list didn't have. I don't know why
the dd is in there, but my disk is now up and running (yes, it's
dangerously dedicated, but the "dd" above is the command, not an
abbreviation).

Hi folks,
I'm trying to port to FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE an application that we
have previously ported to six flavors of UNIX, including BSDI. The
compilation process succeedes until it reaches the linking stage. The
link command is in the following format:

At that point, I see many error messages such as the following:

Usually, these mean that, well, the symbol hasn't been defined.
Unfortunately for me, a look at the ar archives with nm leads me to
conclude that, yes, these symbols _are_ (theoretically) present in
the libraries that I'm linking together here. They are noted to
have T or D mode where they're supposed to, and U mode in the
objects that reference them externally. Just like they do on the
other platforms. I've done a symbol-by-symbol comparison between
the FreeBSD archives and some on other platforms, and I have to
conclude that something is uniquely different in the FreeBSD
link stage. The archives seem fine.
I am using gmake 3.76.1 and gcc 2.8.1. I have also tried with gcc
2.7.2.2, to this same result. When I tried it on a 2.2.5-RELEASE
box, the compile failed due to some unsupported threading structures
in 2.2.5.
I'm stumped. The linking command I showed above is the latest
attempt I've made at it, but it's only working slightly better than
the original attempt. (It helped to ask libc_r for pthreads support
instead of asking libc...)
Can anybody help me track down what's causing this?
Thanks much,
-Dave

hmmm, je ne sais pas ce que c'est... Si tu as configure xdm, tu devrais
essayer plutot...
-- I don't know what this (kdm) is... If you have xdm configured, you
should rather try:
# xdm startup:
if [ -x /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm ] ; then
echo -n 'Starting xdm.'
# need to cleanup first.
if [ -f /tmp/.X0-lock ] ; then
echo -n .
killall xdm
echo -n .
rm -f /tmp/.X0-lock
echo -n .
rm /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/xdm-pid

# now, we can start it.
/usr/X11R6/bin/xdm && echo 'Done.' || echo -n 'Failed. Big problem.'

Hello,
Ok I downloaded the whole 2.2.7 got everything \bin \tools
etc...etc... I put it on a 2 gig file server. After that 8 of my mate and I
(all with differnent PC's) copied the files over to our systems, and then
installed starting with the boot floppy. We ran in to alot of problems, most
was not finding a file during the install, one could not find anything. I
imaged the same folder structure that was in the handbook on every box, we
formated our PC's and did this two more times still with 0 results. Could
you please let me know what the secret formula is to install FreeBSD. We are
all pretty decent UNIX users and some Admins. We have heard good things
about FreeBSD so we thought that we would give it a try and maybe replace
our LinuX servers with it, if it is good as we have heard. Thank you.

I am in panic mode, for one thing, that is what FreeBSD advised me to do:
panic: can't mount root
I have a pentium 166 64mb RAM, 1 SCSI CDROM, and hard drives as follow
Primary master = 2.5GB IDE DOS/Windoze wd0
Primary slave = 6.5GB IDE DOS wd1
Secondary Master = IDE CDROM
Secondary slave = 4.5GB IDE FreeBSD wd3
I installed BSD giving it the whole disk, leaving the first partition open for another OS, not "dangerously dedicated". The fstab points to wd3s1a, b, e, f as /, swap, /var, and /usr. I am using OSBS and it starts the booting from wd3, I suppose, since there is no other place that BSD resides that I can see. Just before the panic message it says that it is switching root to wd2s1a. There ain't no such critter. Please help! Could you cc to dukonalake@aol.com Oh, I am installing from the Walnut Creek CDROM 4 disk set.
Thanks,
Steven Minton

Hi,
This isn't strictly a FreeBSD question, and I am sorry. But I couldn't
find any DNS group that would even let me in, let alone answer a
question.
On Friday, I changed some DNS info on our server. Today, some servers
know about this and others don't. That it, nslookup yields the old
result on some. Is this normal, or should I change something to make it
propagate faster?
Thanks, and I'm all apologies,
Roman

Hmmm...what info did you change? Did you change the serials? Are the SOA's
set correctly? Are the refresh values correct?
Most likely in my experience is serials...

The problem is a very fundimental one that you may not be able to fix on
the FreeBSD end. SGI tar uses block sizes > 64Kbytes. FreeBSD is limited
to 63Kbyte blocks. If you still have access to the SGI W/S, remake the
tape with a shorter blocksize. If not, you loose until FreeBSD raises

the bootloader can only handle the FIRST BSD slice in the slice table.
so you need to reverse the order in the table
(you can leave them the same order on the disk)
Since your new (ex NT) partition comes before
the BSD partition in the MBR table, it is being seen first..
you have several options....
1/ make a root partition in that slice and transfer everything
that leaves you with a free partition in the other slice to use for
something else..
2/ re-order the partitions in the table
(use freebsd's 'fdisk' program.. to type in a new configuration with the
partitions moved around.. the order in the table does not need to
reflect the order on disk)
3/ merge the two partitions
and just fiddle all the numbers so that the partitions
all end up lying on the same locations..
(you'll need to do this from the fixit, )
all these are reversible if you have the numbers
available, so first print out allthe disklabel(8) and fdisk(8)
output.

Bzzt! Wrong! ;-)

Two problems:
1. your fstab is now whacked, make sure you fix it.
2. FreeBSD has trouble coping with two FreeBSD slices on the same disk.
It'll try to boot the one it finds first.

You can attempt to override it by specifying
wd(1,a)/kernel
on the Boot: prompt, but no guarantees.

That wasn't such a great idea. You should have listed it after, like:
wheel:*:0:root,admin
su may have pains if root isn't in wheel.

Hm. LCDs don't have horizontal and vertical frequencies in the
conventional sense. Your best bet is to give the maximum values for the
horizontal & vertical frequencies to pick up some modelines. Ideally the
SVGA server should be recognizing your LCD display and offering modelines
that work. Check the SVGA server start output and see if it's seeing your
LCD (it'll report it's type, probably DSTN for a dual-scan).

It means the BIOS couldn't find an operating system installed on your hard
drive to boot, or the selected partition didn't exist.
To fix, boot a DOS boot floppy with fdisk on it (the first DOS install
floppy does, I think) and run fdisk /mbr to reset the MBR, then fdisk
again and select the desired partition.

If you use user-mode PPP, you have to adapt your natd keywords to the ppp
equivalents, and stop using ipfw/natd.
If you use pppd, though, you point it at ppp0 and it should work.

I don't think you can do this with on-the-fly archives. David?
No you know why we *split* the archives....!!

See http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/multios/.
WARNING: FreeBSD WILL PANIC if installed & booted onto a IDE secondary
master drive when no primary slave drive exists! I would **HIGHLY**
suggest moving your hard drives so they are on the same chain.

When you get fsck problems, run fsck until it comes back clean. Always.
A restore would replace the busted files but you have to clear the busted
files first.

FreeBSD, and to that effect XFree86, support AGP cards. Most AGP cards
act just like their PCI counterparts. FreeBSD couldn't care less as long
as your display card supports text mode. XFree86 is the one you really
want to watch for; see http://www.xfree86.org/ for info.

I can't find any reference to that in the kernel source, although I'm
looking at 2.2.6.

B&W only. For CQC's use the usermode libraries. There should be a port
in graphics or misc.

Yes. Check out http://netwinsite.com/dnews.htm.
I use it with my ISP all the time. It's been installed for a year or so.
Very useful. It doesn't delete stuff from your mailbox unless you
explicitly do so. Let me know what you think of this. If you want to
hear from the ISP people, let me know via email and I'll forward details.

You should be able to get FreeBSD versions of your X server from wherever
you got your Linux version; both Xi Graphics and XFree86 make FreeBSD
binaries.

In answer to my own question, I offer this:
The file /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk, which is used during a make install,
has recently been modified to automagically add any manpages that are
specified in the Makefile's MANx variables to the port's PLIST.
This means that, for a little while, a few ports that are installed with
the new bsd.port.mk may have duplicate entries for their manpages in the
packing lists.
I see there's already an enormous amount of PLIST trimming happening, so
"a little while" probably won't last too long.
Ciao,
Sheldon.

Tecras are the Toshiba Odd Birds. We've had some problems getting their

You may need to rebulid wu-ftpd on the new version, that's all.
Especially if the old one was statically linked.

hello,
have you put the freebsd files to a server?
well it is a lot easy even for beginners
if you are installing it from a ftp server (it may be your 2 gig file server)
then you should put it into a directory like 2.2.7-RELEASE
also you may set the directory name from the installation utility in
floppy, there it asks for release name ( I guess it is asking for
which directory to look for : )
then you may point ftp to download from your server
if freebsd is at ftp://ftp.yourserver.com/pub/FreeBSD/2.2.7-RELEASE
then you should write ftp://ftp.yourserver.com/pub/FreeBSD/ to ftp
server place. well, I do not know a lot about other installation
methods because I usually use this and it is easy to have a ftp server
for every OS even for NT! : )
by the way are you from microsoft or what?
Windows 95/NT - 32 bit extensions and a graphical shell for a 16 bit patch to an
8 bit operating system originally coded for a 4 bit microprocessor, written by a

FreeBSD is seeing the Linux-oid disklabel and going nuts about it. My
machine does the same thing with a Rhapsody partition but it mounts okay.

libkrb would be for Kerberos I'd think.
Obviously the packages machine had Kerberos installed :(

Try booting single user, remounting the partitions, and removing this from
rc.local. It may be crashing and locking up your console.

Did I see this already? I've been debugging X problems and have all the
threads mixed up :-(
How are you starting X? The problem is that your X server is crashing
before the clients get started. Error 61 is Connection Refused, so some
daemon (xdm?) isn't getting started.

Check your library paths. It looks like it's looking for functions that
don't exist, particuarly with regards to audio, some X classes, and
lex/yacc.

AFAIK, TAs act just like Hayes modems, but I've never used one (and
probably won't unless I move out of Oregon, the ISDN Wasteland).

Hi:
Last week I installed FreeBSD (2.2.7 release) and I didn't have problems
(well, not a lot). Then I installed a web server (Apache 1.3.1) and again I
didn't have a lot of problems. But the problems arise when I tried to have
virtual hosts in the web server. It's necessary to configure the interface
(de0) with more than one IP, with the ifconfig command. I use the
following:
ifconfig de0 inet 195.57.19.33 alias
And this is the response of the system:
ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists.
I suposse it is an error. Nevertheless, the system accept the alias and I
can make ping to this alias from another computer of the network, but the
system does not recognize this alias, like it does not exist.
Next I modify the rc.conf file (at /etc) and add the following:
ifconfig_de0_alias0="inet 195.57.19.33"
ifconfig_de0_alias1="inet 195.57.10.34"
When I reboot the system, I obtain the following error messages:
de0: abnormal interrupt: receive process stopped
ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists.
ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists.
And, of course, the system doesn't recognize the alias :(
I don't know where is the problem and why these messages appear, could
someone help me?
TIA
Alonso

Hi. In my dmesg I see:
utp/tx[*tx*]: disable 'auto select' with DOS util! address [...]
I'd like to know why auto select is bad and why I should disable it.
This message isn't very informative and a glance through the kernel
code doesn't reveal anything more to me.
Thanks,
David

I just type 'startx' with no options/arguments. I'm logged in as root; using tcsh shell.

I read through the old mailing lists, and understand that the Compaq
Netflex3 Ethernet card was not supported. Can anyone tell me if this has
changed. I did not see any up to date references. Was any support added
in 2.2.6?
Thanks in advance.

Since the old source was deleted (and the CD's are at work) I grabbed
the port from -current and installed it. All is well and working now.

I'm looking for a utility that convert a file from a FreeBSD server to

XSuSe makes a Linux version, but they don't yet have a FreeBSD version.
I'll just have to wait until the next release of XFree86 or XSuSe.

In comparing the installation of freeBSD with Linux, either from an
installation diskette or from CD-ROM, Linux install recognizes my CD-ROM,
either Sony or Mitsumi, but freeBSD does not, regardless of which
installation options I choose. As soon as it begins to load the
distribution, I get a message to the effect that I do not have a recognized
freeBSD CD or it is out of date, and the installation aborts. I do not have
enough room to create a DOS partition and install from that. Any suggestions?

Under NetBSD, 1.0/0.0 returns NaN. Under FreeBSD, it causes an
exception. I could have sworn there was some way to specify
which behavior one wanted, but I can't find it anywhere. Is
there any way in FreeBSD to say ``just return NaN'', or will it
always SIGFPE me? Or, is there any way to write a signal handler
that will catch the SIGFPE, and tell it to just use a value of
NaN, and resume execution? I'm already trapping signals and
installing signal handlers in this app, so installing another
one would be No Big Deal.
TIA.

Hope someone can help me out here.
We have an NT RAS server for folks to dial in to to access a Windows network
running TCP/IP. Reliability of the system is questionable. Ideally, I'd like a
FreeBSD machine to take over RAS duties YET be transparent to the remote users.
This would mean using the existing NT authentication (SAMBA?) and no changes to
the client machines (no scripting to handle "Login" prompts, etc).
Can this be done with FreeBSD?
Please reply directly to me in addition to the mailing list.
Thanks,
Michael Austin

Hi,
When I try to use disklabel on sd3s1 I get the error "device not
configured". I can use sd3 though, and sd[0-2]s1 with no problems. All
the disks are wired-down, and there are two SCSI controllers in use,
sd0-2 on one, and sd3 on the other, which is an `amd' controller. Here's
the relevant part of my kernel config:
controller amd0
controller scbus1 at amd0
disk sd3 at scbus1 target 3
controller ahc0
controller scbus0 at ahc0
disk sd0 at scbus0 target 0
disk sd1 at scbus0 target 1
disk sd2 at scbus0 target 2
#device sd0
device st0
device cd0
The amd chip gets probed first, but I wanted the other disks to be
named first.
I am experiencing a similar problem on another machine which has only
sd0 wired-down. I can't use sd[12]s1 (but I can use sd[12] and sd0s1).
Here's its config:
controller aha0 at isa? port "IO_AHA0" bio irq ? drq 5 vector ahaintr
controller ahc0
controller scbus0 at aha0
disk sd0 at scbus0 target 0
device st0
device cd0
The ahc's (two controllers) get probed first, but I wanted the disk on
aha0 to be named first.
All of the /dev files are there.
What am I doing wrong, or is this some kind of bug? Please reply by
email.
Thanks

Sicher:

"/dev/null" ist fuer Sicherheit, wenn die Nummer Dateien % 40 genau 0 sei.

Thanks for the reply. I have everything under control now.
I have had this problem with Booteasy with EVERY install. I have
tried in many different ways and I think that I have used spacebar to
select None. On the last case I described I never got the screen at
all since I only did the labeling and no partitioning. Booteasy got
installed.
My guess that if one never goes into the partition screen that
Booteasy is the default.

Heh, nice spotting, Evren! The a-cbooth email addr suggests that

what does dmesg say?
what does 'fdisk /dev/rsd3' say?
have you tried the -r option?
also always use the raw device
e.g.
disklabel -r -w /dev/rsd3s1 floppy3
disklabel -r -e /dev/rsd3s1

One that is stuck in a system call, such as maybe one interacting
with ttyv0 while the ttyv0 driver is toast. Ps will do this too
on SGI (and maybe others) if utmp gets hosed for instance. Such
processes are locked in a kernel state they can't get out of, and
so can't be killed. Reboot if you can, or fix the problem and
ignore the lost pids.

I'm looking for NTP (Network Time Protocol) sources to implement it for
our gigabit switch/router. Only NTP client is needed. Can you tell
me is FreeBSD has that in your source treee? If you have it, can you
tell me which ftp directory has that? If it is in CDROM only, can you =
also
let me know which directory has it and I'll buy a CD from you.
Thanks very much,

I have gotten too important ;-)
Is there a way to increase the number of groups a user can be in?
I get the above message on sendmail connections with mail bound to me,
rsh -l me etc. Doing "cat group | grep girgen | wc -l " results in 15,
but it seems to add up to more than 16 anyway. Is there a default in the
src that can safely be increased? If so, is it bad to so for some
reason?

Right, if get dir.tar, then you can't resume the failed download.

Hi,
I have a very simple web site set up on my home computer through monolith.
I would like to have a ftp site with anonymous login. Right now my site
refuses this.
I read the man on ftpd and am still unclear.
Exactly what file and how do i edit to allow anonymous ftp login.
Thanks Alot
Rick

Ich bin durchaus dafür, daß man jegliche Art von Mißbrauch

Hi,
I was wondering if the vx driver supported the 3Com PCI 3C905 B-TX? The vx
driver supposedly supports all 3c9xx, however from the mailing list archives
a lot of people seem to (or had) problems with it.
The CVS logs weren't too informative. My problem is, I have the kernel
compiled for it, as well as pci0. However, it simply detects it via pci0 but
does not detect the vx0 device.
Here's what I get:
pci0:9: vendor=0x10b7, device=0x9055, class=network (ethernet) int a irq
11 [no driver assigned]
And then no mention of the vx0. Almost like the device isn't found in the
kernel. I have the kernel compiled with the config file *in* it, and did a
strings. Looks like the config file does have the vx defined. Other strings
found in the kernel show the error messages of the vx device. I'm assuming
this means the device driver code is in the kernel :-)
I have another card on the ep0 device. I also made sure I configured it for 2
ethernet psuedo devices. I'm running FreeBSD 2.2.5 (if the newer versions
have this problem fixed please let me know).
Finally, without sounding rude I'm not subscribed to freebsd-questions (just
some other freebsd related mailing lists). So please do make a CC of your
replies back to me. Thanks.

...Inside joke for those on -chat.
I built my xterm using --with-Xaw3d to get the 3d widgets. I currently
have XTerm*ScrollBar: false.
When I run 'xterm -sb' from a command line I get the 3d scrollbar. When I
run X from 'Exec xterm -sb' I get the crappy old scrollbar.
How in the heck can I get one type of scroll bar in one invocation and a
different type of scroll bar in the near-same invocation?
Also, I have look ed for a good tutorial on XRESOURCES. I have found none.
Do you guys have a URL for this?

I have reviewed your documentation in search of a solution to the
following problem. I have developed an application which will submit
multiple 'cu' commands simulataneously from different PCs. The dial-out
(for each command) will be performed using the same modem and same phone
number, submitting additional data unique to the requesting user.
Can you offer suggestions on the best way to manage(queue) the
simultaneous 'cu' commands?
Thanks!
Cindy

When you boot to single user mode you need to CHANGE the root
password. Removing the password from the passwd file isn't enough
as the password database needs to be rebuilt.<br>

Because I always have minicom running and when such incidents
happen, minicom will says:
killed by signal 1!
on a popup text window.
Which process and why it is doing that I don't know and that is
exactly what is bugging me for a long time now.
Does anyone have similar problem ?

I am currently having problems getting my cdrom drive to work with
BSD. I am using a SNAP of FreeBSD 3.0 from the end of May.
I have a Sony CDU076 4x cdrom drive that works perfectly but when I
replace it with our new Sony CDU701 32x drives they will not function.
I enabled the DEBUG flag in the ATAPI driver and this is the message I
am getting
/kernel: wdc0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7 irq 14 on isa
/kernel: atapi0.0 at 0x1f0: attach called
/kernel: atapiX.0 at 0x1f0: controller busy, status=80<busy>
/kernel: atapi0.1 at 0x1f0: attach called
/kernel: atapiX.1 at 0x1f0: controller busy, status=80<busy>
The cdrom drive is set as master because it is the only IDE device I
use

Hey Tom,
I Had A Problem That You Could Consider Similar To This.
I Had 2 Cd-Roms, An Old Junker, And A Sony CDU-928E,
The Junker Was Set As Master, And The Sony As Slave.
Linux Recognized Both Drives, But FreeBSD Didn't Recognize
Either. So I Pulled The Old Junker And Reset The Sony
To Master And FreeBSD Found It.
Hope This Gives You Some Ideas... Or Something....

Hello,
This Question Does Not Specifically Apply To FreeBSD, And
Perhaps If I Owned A ZIP Drive My Question Would Be Answered,
But My Question Is, Is It Possible To Make A ZIP Drive Bootable,
Like The Floppy Is On This Machine? If Anyone Has Heard Of
Anything Like This Please Explain How It Could Be Done, Or Point
Me In The Direction Of Some Explanatory Materials Of Some Sort.
If It Can't Be Done, Thanks Anyway.

How about rewriting to use `uux' to be submitted on the remote
machine. This way, you can uucp's std queuing mechanism without having
to resort hackery with `cu'.

Hey guys/gals!
Okay I got a pretty simple question. Well, actually I have two questions.
Let me fill you in on my deal and then list the questions on order.
I was thinking about getting a cable modem service from Media One here in
the Los Angeles area. I don't know much about their reputation on the
cable modem deal since it's a pretty new service, but I thought I'd give
it a try.
My questions are:
1) According to Media One, I must have a TCP/IP stack that supports DHCP
addressing. Does FreeBSD support this, and would it be easy to set
FreeBSD up with a cable modem?
2) What do you guys think about those cheap NE2000 compatible boards that
you can get from the Computer Shows? They any good? I've looked at a few
of those boards and I noticed that none of the boards I looked at had
jumpers. I've never set up a network card before, so I dont know what
would be up with the IRQ's and stuff. I'm just worried that I might get a
PnP type NIC instead of a good ole' "set the jumpers" type NIC. Any
ideas?
Well, that that seemed like more than two questions, but I'd appreciate
the help.
Thanks!

You'll just have to wait. Name servers cache what they learn in the course of
their queries, and answer requests out of cache when they can. They'll keep
answering out of cache until the TTL, which you supply in your SOA or in
particular RRs, expires, and then they'll requery authoritative servers for
fresh information. Also, slave servers (as they're known in BIND 8.1.x -- the
were formerly known as secondaries) will refresh their own information
according to the refresh you supply in your SOA (BIND 8.1.x supports NOTIFY, so
if both master and slave are running 8.1.x and are listed as name servers in
the zone file, the change on the slave will be instant). Both the TTL and the
refresh contribute to the delays you're seeing.
At worst, a name server out there on the Internet should not have data older
than the TTL added to the refresh time. In the future, if you're going to
change an address or an MX record or whatever and you want the change to happen
more quickly, you can start lowering the TTL as the time for the change
approaches. When you're very close to the time to make the change, lower it to
something like 60 seconds, or even 0 seconds. After you've made the address
change, reload the secondaries (if you have access to them) and restore the TTL
to a normal value. This will minimize or eliminate the time that stale data
remains cached on name servers around the world.
I hope this isn't more than you wanted to know!

Yep, I'm doing this now with roadrunner. Its a pain in the ass having a
dynamic IP, but the dhcp part of it is pretty braindead and easy.
/usr/ports/net/wide-dhcp will do the job.

I have a few jumperless ne2000s in my machines at home, they're certainly
more work to set up than a PCI net card, but still pretty straightforward.
Boot with a dos floppy, run their dos based config proggy, set up the
IRQ/addresses (I lean towards irq10 address 0x300), save it, then boot to
FreeBSD. Set the kernel up with the IRQs you set with the software, and
you're done... (and stash the floppy in a safe place, as you'll need it
again) If this sounds like a pain, I'd spend the extra $20 and get PCI,
they're much easier.

You have probably faulty hardware or too little swap etc. I have completed
"make world" on the similar machine with 8MB of memory. It takes many hours,
certainly :-)

Hello
I have an important question to ask concerning the bug "teardrop"
i have been having discussions with my peers concerning the bug and need
to know weather or not if FreeBSD is vulnerable to teardrop
a reply would be grewatly appreciated
Thank you
David

Dear FreeBSD community!
I have used FreeBSD for three years in desktop publishing
and I was always very satisfied with stability and performance
of the well-organized FreeBSD system.
But now I am disappointed because of difficulties coming up
in numerical and mathematical computations.
As a mathematician I had thought,
that math should be one of the smaller problems for a computer ...
But there occur so much serious floating point exceptions and
strange underflows! Can I trust any longer the libm of FreeBSD?
Most of my programs written in C use the Mesa library.
They run very well on other architectures like Alpha machines with DEC Unix,
Silicons with Irix and also i386 machines with Linux.
Using the same compiler gcc-2.7.2.1 under FreeBSD-2.2.X I had
always to compile libm, Mesa-2.6 libraries and my own programs
without any optimization flags to get partially executable code!
It is a pity but sticking to Linux seems to be the only way
for me to get reliable numerical results.
So long,
Jens Griepentrog

I have an e-mail account on a FreeBSD machine, which has an e-mail alias
(i.e. I can be e-mailed at either leonard@slip.net or othername@slip.net).
I am moving to another mail server, and would like to have my current
server forward e-mail to the new one. However, I only want messages sent
to the leonard@slip.net address forwarded and messages sent to othername
to remain stored on the old server as normal.
I'm thinking that a .forward and procmail would probably be the right
solution, but I don't know a thing about procmail at all. Can anyone help
me with writing the ruleset?
Thanks,
Leonard

Has anyone actually gotten UPSd 2.0.1.6 to work with a homebrew cable? I
recently purchased an APC Back-UPS 500 and tracked down a hack'd cable
callout that allegdly duplicates the APC part.
I checked for loopback on the serial port I was planning to use, changed
the upsd.conf to said serial port, attached my homemade cable adapter,
and started up upsd. However, it reports "Cannot put the UPS into smart
mode!". I suspect this means that I don't have valid communications
between the ups and the serial port/daemon. Evidently, the man page
and README have not been written yet (an entry in the TODO list!) So, I
might have something configured incorrectly.
I noticed that when I actually connect up my kludged cable to the UPS, the
green "ON" light goes off. *something* is happening. *shrug*
Anyone out there in FreeBSDLand know where I might find a page on APC
smartport hacks so I can start picking through the upsd code?
Here is the cable callout I used: (Thanks to Don Wilde for this)
<...>
Having also evaluated Linux, I pull this from their UPS How-To:
male DB9 (UPS) fem DB9 (UNIX)
1 CD 7 RTS
2 RD 1 CD
9 RING 5 SGND
This is apparently how the APC cable is wired, although the same author
says it would be better (due to the power-up initialization of the UART)
to use TX (computer pin 3) rather than RTS (pin 7). Haven't had a chance
to DO it, but it's on the list. I spend too much time reading mail!

Hi there,
I have an NT box which has a LDAP server which allows me (and the rest of
the people on my network) access to use MS NetMeeting. Is there an
equivalent for FreeBSd which will also allow me to connect using MS
NetMeeting.
Cheers
Craig

Hi there,
I am using 2.2.2 and was wondering if there was any way to cc a copy of all
outgoing eMail to another user account or text file. I realise all of the
ethical concerns about this, but what the client wants, the client gets. If
it is any consolation, all of the users will be made aware of this policy.
Cheers

As you say, you have APC Back-UPS, not Smart-UPS. So, why you use upsd, which
is for Smart UPS's from APC ?? I use bkpupsd from the ports collection with my
APC Back-UPS Pro 650 and it works great.

My cable from APC has more than four resistors, one diode and transistor also.
Without disassembling it's very difficult to say how the real scheme looks
out. If you want, I can send you my cable sheme.

Thanks Spidey and Doug.
Since this problem, I reinstalled the system.
Well, I didn't reinstalled. I just upgraded with the same
version of that one already installed.
Everytime I try to install, FreeBSD 2.2.6 refuses me
at the partition step as it sees more than 1 DOS partitions.
> (1) C: wcd0s1 (Windows 95 bootable / WinNT bootable)
> 2.2 GB
> (2) wcd0s2 (FreeBSD native): in here, I have 800 MB
> (3) D: wcd0s3 (Only data)
> 1.2 GB
But, the "Upgrade" option worked. It just recopied
everything I had before --> waste of time.... :(
Finally, I made it installed and rebooted.
Oops, it doesn't accept me as a root.
Did it really re-established the passwd file or not ?
I don't know. One thing is clear that I cannot enter
as a root.
For this, I couldn't use "single user" or "default root"
option, because each time I reboot one of those, the root_device
becomes read only and I cannot modify my password. Oh, god...
I again upgraded the system, without forget to change the root
password in TTYV4 using passwd.
Now, it works again, but, I really don't know what happened.
As you say Doug, it can be a problem of X. but, how can we explain
that the system worked before and got stuck without any modification ?
Thanks again for your answer, and see you ;)

Hi,
I have another question.
I'm actually working on the TCP observation.
I saw the article http://www.psc.edu/networking/perf_tune.html
Then, I tried to change the system variables of FreeBSD 2.2.6
to obtain a large TCP window size.
(1) First question.
I want to make the RFC1323 works on FreeBSD 2.2.6.
Is there any special procedure I need to do ?
(2) Second.
Once the (1) question resolved,
How can I make TCP's option "Window Scale" work on
any connection such as FTP ?
(3) Third
TCPDUMP, as a real good utility to observe the traffic
on TCP connection, I really want to use this. BUT, But,
whenever I launch this "tcpdump [enter]", it tells me,
tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: Device not configured.
I tried to change chmod 666 /dev/bpf0, but no succeed.
What is the problem here ?
Thanks for everyone who answer me... :)

We currently have an internal POP3 mail server that connects to our ISP
via a router every 15 minutes to collect mail. Internal mail clients
then connect to the internal machine to pick up their mail. This POP3
mail server runs on a Windows 95 machine and, consequently, is prone to
crashing.
I would like to move the internal POP3 server over to a FreeBSD machine.
Are there any applications for FreeBSD that would fulfill this function
?
Thanks

perhaps you did not configure your kernel to support the packet

pseudo-device bpfilter 4

And I think the .sig clinches it. However, this list is for helping people who have
problems setting up FreeBSD. Although I have little love for M$ OSes, I think your
tone was a little harsh.

You need to check the serial numbers in the zone files for the primary
server for the domain you control. If you have root access to all the
secondary servers, you can force an update by killing and restarting named
on each secondary. Check /var/log/syslog and /var/log/messages on the
primary and secondaries as well. If there is an error in your zone files,
then DNS transfers can be aborted and the errors will be reported in the
relevant log files.
Hope that helps,
Adam.

Hiyall,
I've added the static route:
203.11.114.182 mask 255.255.255.254 gateway 203.11.114.181;
in gated.conf and sent a -HUP to the daemon.
The route is visible to the machine running gated, but not across the LAN.
Any ideas? Below is the gated.conf file...
Regards,

I've never setup gated so I'm not sure what that "mask" statement means
exactly, but if you're refering to netmask, .254 is illegal. Did you by
chance mean .252 (2 hosts per 62 subnets)?

A masklength of 30 is correct, starting at 180. But still cannot see
across the network...

Hi,
Ok, so I've been spoiled by FreeBSD's great port system...
More and more lately I seem to come across ports that insist on having
required package (ie. perl) living in the ports directory (ie.
/usr/ports/lang/perl5/work/perl5.005_02/ ) rather than their real home
(ie. /usr/local/bin/perl ). The result is that if I make clean one port
that requires perl (and subsequently make clean perl), the next port that
needs perl insists on trying to rebuild it. Ok, so this isn't a huge deal
because it's fairly trivial to work around, but I don't recall this
happening as frequently in the past. Any reason I'm seeing this more
often? Recent examples are MySQL and P5-DBI.
Dave

Be aware that the 3c905*B* is quite different from the 3c905 (without
the B). As far as I can see, the vx driver of FreeBSD up to 2.2.7 does
not yet support the 3c905b.

Yes, illegal was not the right word, but .254 produces no useable hosts.
This is a /31 mask. It is valid, but void of any hosts.

Hello..
A while back I was having problems ftp'ing into a system. Since then
suggestions have been made to check my shells and error logs.
my shells are as follows
/bin/sh
/bin/csh
/usr/local/bin/bash
/usr/local/bin/tcsh
/usr/local/bin/ksh
So this does not appear to be the problem.
I still get the following when trying to ftp to the box.. (I can ftp out
fine, i just cant ftp into)
$ ftp 207.170.35.68

I'm not sure I understand, but you can simply do:
echo 'newname@new.server' > ~leonard/.forward
This will create a .forward file telling to forward all mail arriving at
leonard@slip.net to newname@new.server (which you should replace by the
new server name...)

i just moved to 2.2.7-R, and am now having troubles
with PPP routes.
i run ppp -auto -alias isp
i played around endlessly with
delete 0 (ALL)
add 0 0 (default) HISADDR
in ppp.conf and ppp.linkup. putting them
in both places seems to work best.
my problem is the connection appears fine
at startup with, for example, the routes
tun0 (default)
loop (loopback)
tun0
tun1 (line i'm logged in with)
then m PPP apears to break, but pppctl tells
me PPP is UP. i look at the routes, and see
tun0
loop
tun1
tun1
tun1
tun1
tun1
tun1
tun1
tun1
all these crazy tun1 routes, and a missing
tun0 route. i say
delete 0
add 0 0 HISADDR
and the routing table appeears OK again,
the internet connection works again,
but within minutes, the routes are
all corrupted again.
has this been fixed?
or am i missing something?
please ditto an off-list response ...
thanks.

Well Jesus sat with the Thieves and the Taxpayers.

To this I say that is on you if you would like to have your family starve
that's ok with me! I choose to love my children! I also made a pretty hard
move in my career, that was when I left Boeing as an IRIX admin, to go take
a short 8 month opportunity.
>There is no way to live inside the Beast and not ultimately become

Funny I think just because I leave on the 28th.. I came in for a big reason
NT 5, well now that it has taken its true direction I head that way.
>"How many M$ Professionals does it take to install FreeBSD?"
Well it was actually one MS person, and that was me! The rest are either
programmers and one other admin who is actually a Unix admin, and I have no
shame asking the lists I mean that's how most of us learned things. You
don't ask you don't know. Now its people like you that make people stupid
cause they are afraid to ask, no to me that is pretty stupid on your part
since you are supposed to be one of the people on "FreeBSD-questions" should
you not change that to "rag-yourass@freebsd.org"
>From another, most M$ types use hotmail or juno accounts for this
sort of thing. It may even be M$ policy
No actually its not. Even for newslist you can use it, now allot of people
do that, but I figure your place would be one that was ok to not bother with
hotmail. But with a flame like this I will be sure to let everyone know that
your list has some trash talkers and they should not email you.
>Another: Since M$ is ruining the careers of my brother hackers,

Really? Sounds to me like you are just another person trying to be on the
hacker bandwagon. Why should you help me? Well if that is an issue then your
mail should not be "questions" why would you be a big hypocrite and say
"questions" when you don't really answer them!?
>Another: You're on a mission for M$, which doesn't give tech support

No actually I am not on a mission for MS, I am on a mission of finding out
if FreeBSD is better than LinuX? Pay you $100 hr? hahah, with your great
customer service.. gee that's a tough one.. pay $100 bucks for attitude..
man I can get that anywhere for free...

Another: since you've got NT spewing out all over the place, why

Bedford.net policy.
2. No Advertising
Other early policies included deciding on approaches to advertising and
privacy. While you look around, you'll notice that we don't sell any
advertising spaces on our website to other companies -- there's enough of
that on the internet already. We sell internet service to you. We don't try
to force-feed you advertising -- you didn't sign up for that. The Internet
Explorer logo is an exception, as Microsoft requires it under a distribution
agreement!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<Pretty cool that they make exceptions for little
old us!>. Any links that we have to other sites are here because they are
part of our community or because they provide something useful to the
experience of our users, not because they are paying us to lure you to their
site.
Last thing, I got mail from about 4 other people at this list who were all
very helpful polite and very willing to help. No I feel sorry for them that
they are being represented with someone of your stature! You have one big
problem and that is you are looking at the big picture, not the little one.
So you think about that, oh and your little tag at the bottom....

Well, I do know how that can be, but I didn't really say anything
against the Beast, did I? We all have to eat, I agree, but we do
have a choice at which table we sit, don't we? You don't have to
take the Beast's favors.
At one point in my career, I said to myself that it would be better

You don't have to do the things the Beast tells you to do. The

There's a war on, if you hadn't noticed. You're smack dab
in the center of the enemy's camp right now, and many will consider
you to be on some kind of evil mission. There have been M$
provocation campaigns before, often from known M$ spammers,
on the Usenet groups, typically with content very similar to
yours. "Why is this so hard to install?" Without any other

>From yet another, here's your original query and the response I would
make if you weren't in the Beast.
From: "Christian Booth (Macrosearch Inc)" <a-cbooth@microsoft.com>
Hello,
Ok I downloaded the whole 2.2.7 got everything \bin \tools
etc...etc... I put it on a 2 gig file server. After that 8 of my mate and I
(all with differnent PC's) copied the files over to our systems, and then
installed starting with the boot floppy. We ran in to alot of problems, most
was not finding a file during the install, one could not find anything. I
imaged the same folder structure that was in the handbook on every box, we
formated our PC's and did this two more times still with 0 results. Could
you please let me know what the secret formula is to install FreeBSD. We are
all pretty decent UNIX users and some Admins. We have heard good things
about FreeBSD so we thought that we would give it a try and maybe replace
our LinuX servers with it, if it is good as we have heard. Thank you.
Response:
You will be much better off leaving the files on the server, and
doing the installation from there using ftp, if the server is capable
of ftp. Installing from a local disc partition is not such a good idea,
particularly if running under non standard OS's, which may not properly
preserve file names and permissions, or mysteriously lose files.
Some pointers: a "folder" is properly called a "directory" in Unix;
the term folder has small employment referring to a "mail folder",
which is a file containing 1 or more email messages. The canonical
directory name separator is the /, not the \ which is used to
escape the following character. Perhaps you have mis-specified
some filenames?
In your case I would start over, having made space on whatever
harddisk where 'BSD is to be installed. Then boot the installation
floppy, correctly partition the harddisk, and then disklabel
the partition dedicated to FreeBSD.
Use an ftp installation from the server, specifying it by IP number,
not name. A nameserver is not needed at this point, and in a M$
environment may cause trouble.
When asking questions, it is a very good idea to specify completely
what you are doing. In this case:
Machine name, CPU type, memory, attached peripherals,
naming them /explicitly/. I.e Seagate ST32550 drive
on Adapatec AIC-7880 controller as ID 2, not "some
SCSI drive".
Exactly which steps in the installation process have been
completed, and the precise error messages encountered.
For example: "After completing the X-Developer level
installation and setting up the networking, I exited
installation and rebooted. The kernel did the device
probes, but then panicked, saying; "Panic -- cannot mount
root device", not "It doesn't work".
We're just wizards here, not mind readers.
Unlike M$ "documentation", the stuff FreeBSD supplies is intended to
be read.

And never will, if I'm not mistaken. The new xl driver will support the
entire 3com Etherlink XL family of NICs, including both the 3c905
(currently supported by the vx driver) as well as the 3c905B. I just read
about it on the freebsd-stable list, I b'lieve it was.

You might want to make sure that your /usr/ports/lang/perl5 and your
/usr/share/mk subdirectories are both up-to-date. The bsd.port.mk file
has a perl version hardcoded in it, and if it doesn't find that exact
version of perl, it goes and builds the port. I can imagine that if
the two versions are different, then bsd.port.mk would insist on
reinstalling perl every time.
I wonder if bsd.port.mk could somehow query
${PORTSDIR}/lang/perl5/Makefile for the correct version.

Hello,
It seems that every file that root touches on my
freebsd 2.2.7 machine inherit a line full of U's.
This is very frustrating, especially when trying to
install programs such as perl or apache because it
sticks the U's in front of the #!/bin/sh. The
problem also appears in ordinary files. For instance,
after adding myself to the wheel group in /etc/group
it decided to put the U's in front of wheel. This
of course screwed everything up and doing a ls -al of
/ showed that the files belonged to root UUUUUUUwheel.
This is easy to fix, as long as it's a normal file, just
pico and remove the U's. However when doing the perl
install it put's the U's in front of #!/bin/sh and then
the install program can't find the shell so it aborts.
Has anyone else had a similar experience? I've installed
freebsd 2.2.7 on several machines and have
this problem on each. I'm going to go to 3.0 just
to see if the problem goes away. I do know that it
didn't happen under 2.2.6.
By the way, each machine has a basic freebsd install
without x. The only addon programs are pine and
tcp_wrappers.
I didn't really know what to search for under freebsd's
search engine, so if somebody's already answered a
question similar to this please point me to the answer.
thanks for your help.
David

I know the answer to this is most likely no, but I'll ask anyway.
Is it posible to have virtual domains w/out real IPs. Like using
192.168.*.* or something? I know you can do it and have people on your
LAN see it, but how about people that aren't using your server as their
DNS server?

Hi,
I want to connect two DEC-SAS-FDDI-cards dual homed to two
FDDI-concentrator from cisco. Is there a chance to configure the drivers
to have the same IP-address on both cards.

Hi all!
I recently upgraded from 226R to 227R, using CVSup and make world. No
problem at all, really, it worked like a charm. However, I recently
visited the web-handbook, instead of my local handbook. How surprised was
I to see that there was new content! Precisely, the section 8 and 9, Disks
and Backups, were not present on my local handbook, even thought I had
this supfile:
*default tag=RELENG_2_2_7_RELEASE
*default host=cvsup.ca.FreeBSD.ORG
*default prefix=/usr
*default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup
*default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress
src-all
doc-all
cvs-crypto
ports-all tag=.
Remark the doc-all line. Shouldn't this also get me the handbook???
Thanks for any input!

Hi,
I posted to comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc but nothing's come back... news takes
a while.
I'm running 2.2.7-RELEASE, and I've already changed my kernel a bit to
allow me to do a whole bunch of simultaneous connections, but I've
probably done something wrong, because it ain't working.
Here's what I have:
P5-166 Gateway
32 MB RAM
2 GB disk, 850MB belongs to FreeBSD, of which 100MB is swap.
PCI DEC Ethernet card
Here's how I've mangled my poor kernel:
maxusers 128
options CHILD_MAX=256
options OPEN_MAX=2048
options NMBCLUSTERS=4096
Here's how I've changed login.conf
default and root both have unlimited child process and open file
counts.
I've done a little poking around in param.c and don't see immediately
that I've violated any rules by setting these limits the way I have.
When I type limits, I get the following info back:
maxprocesses 2067
openfiles 4136
But I can't find anything anywhere that talks about tuning the kernel
for doing this.
What I need to do is be able to run lots of TCP connections, and I know
it can be done with FreeBSD.
The connections are being made from FreeBSD to a proprietary board and
then to a Solaris machine.
My end goal is to be able to bring up about 1024 TCP connections
outbound and route them back to the same box, for a total of 2048
connections.
Right now, I run 1024 connections to the other system, and what happens
is when the sockets are all connected, and the writes start to occur,
FreeBSD
just reboots the machine -- no messages anywhere.
Have I really goofed up somewhere/something? Can anyone give me some
insight as to what MIGHT be happening here? E-mail is fine, so's the
newgroup.
I suppose it's completely possible I'm running out of RAM and swap, but
I'd expect to see something in /var/log/messages to that effect. So
far, nothing.
Recently I uppped NMBCLUSTERS to 4096, but it didn't seem to fix the
problem.
That was based on some notes in the FAQ.
Thanks in advance,
Matt Gessner

Hi again!
For info, uname -a:

beaupran@outpost.nada.org:/usr/src/sys/compile/HALL i386
I recently installed apache on my system. When I try to connect to my own
server using http://localhost , everything's fine and it's connecting.
However, when I try http://outpost.nada.org (see above) it says:
A network error occurred, the server may be down or unreachable...
There is nothin relevent in the apache logs...
It's been 6 months since I have FreeBSD installed on my system. When I did
it, I didn't really cared about hostnames and DNSs, simply because I
didn't know what they meant, but now I'm just confused... I include here
relevant files (resolv.conf, hosts, host.conf...)
--------------------------------
Resolv.conf file:
--------------------------------

# Default is to use the nameserver first

# If that doesn't work, then try the /etc/hosts file
hosts
# If you have YP/NIS configured, uncomment the next line

Subject: Configure my server names...
Hi again!
For info, uname -a:
FreeBSD outpost.nada.org 2.2.7-RELEASE FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE #0: Fri Aug

beaupran@outpost.nada.org:/usr/src/sys/compile/HALL i386
I recently installed apache on my system. When I try to connect to my own
server using http://localhost , everything's fine and it's connecting.
However, when I try http://outpost.nada.org (see above) it says:
A network error occurred, the server may be down or unreachable...
There is nothin relevent in the apache logs...
It's been 6 months since I have FreeBSD installed on my system. When I did
it, I didn't really cared about hostnames and DNSs, simply because I
didn't know what they meant, but now I'm just confused... I include here
relevant files (resolv.conf, hosts, host.conf...)
--------------------------------
Resolv.conf file:
--------------------------------
domain outpost.nada.org
nameserver 132.204.2.103
nameserver 132.204.2.102
# These two DNS are necessary to my ppp connection
--------------------------------
Hosts file:
--------------------------------
# $Id: hosts,v 1.6 1996/03/20 15:29:10 adam Exp $
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.my.domain

#132.204.46.26 derby.jsp.umontreal.ca
#132.204.46.25 epsom.jsp.umontreal.ca
--------------------------------
Hosts.conf file:
--------------------------------
# $Id: host.conf,v 1.2 1993/11/07 01:02:57 wollman Exp $
# Default is to use the nameserver first
bind
# If that doesn't work, then try the /etc/hosts file
hosts
# If you have YP/NIS configured, uncomment the next line
#nis
--------------------------------
networks file (I don't know what
this is really and never changed it)
--------------------------------
# @(#)networks 5.1 (Berkeley) 6/30/90

I'm new to FreeBSD and UNIX in general, so forgive me if I'm asking some
elementary questions.
Regarding the FreeBSD filesystem, what is the equivalent of a "cluster"
in the DOS world? That is, if I have tiny files, how much disk space do
they actually occupy? My experiments suggest 1k, but I'm confused by
references to 512-byte blocks in various places. Is this "cluster" size
independent of disk or partition size?
I have a situation that involves storing the better part of a million
small (700 bytes to 1.9 kbytes) files (don't ask!). From a filesystem
efficiency point of view, what is a practical maximum number of files per
directory? How many directories can you have under one directory?
Where is this kind of thing documented? I have scanned "The Complete
FreeBSD" book, and have searched the online docs without success.

Hi,
I am about to build a new web server. I have been working with 2.2.7
since its release and know it's stable, but I am _dying_ to play with
3.0. The question is: is 3.0 stable enough for something like this, or
should I just wait for the release?
Thanks,
Roman

I'm in the process of blowing away the last Linux box on our network,
and to this effect I installed DES on the new system, for the old password
file.
The thing is, I'd like to have:
- old passwords encrypted with DES (that works OK)
- new passwords encrypted with MD5 (which doesn't work -- they get created
as DES, unless I manually stick "$1$" in the beginning of the password
field.
Is there a way to force MD5 generation, for any password change/creation,
with or without the salt ?

Hi all!
In the last couple of months our central file&print&everything server
crashed a couple of times. These crashes seem to happen more and more
often.
The system just comes to a halt, it doesn't even panic or write an
entry into /var/adm/messages.
The console is filled with error messages like this:
SEQADDR=0x6 SCSISEQ=0x12 SSTAT0=0x5 SSTAT1=0xa
sd0(ahc0:0:0) SCB 7: Flags=0x1
sd0(ahc0:0:0) no longer in timeout

These change ----^---------^
sd0(ahc0:0:0) SCB 0x7 timed out while idle
LASTPHASE=0x1 SCSISIGI=0x0
This is from writing it down with pencil and paper, so there may be
mistakes.

ccd isn't used yet, I put it in just in case. The system isn't really
_loaded_, but nonetheless busy all the time. It runs lots of small
different small services and is quite essential for our business.
The 1st harddisk (sd0) is a wide device, connected to the 2940 (narrow) with
one of those small adapters. The 2 buses (2 2940, see above) _are_
properly terminated and the cables are of the finest quality. Really ;-)
I suspect it's a hardware issue, but I'd like confirmation or even
a "proof" before throwing money at the problem.
Thanks in advance,
Patrick

no that whole file is commented out.
What is ftpd's line in /etc/inetd.conf?
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/libexec/ftpd ftpd -l
This has been puzzling me for months now.. very odd.

This subject has been discussed in the past... The reason that
Linux gives no exceptions is that the floating point exceptions are
*masked* by default. The default for FreeBSD, on the other hand,
is that floating point exceptions are *unmasked*. Therefore,
what you are seeing is that the software you run under Linux
does a poor job of dealing with numerical precision -- the programs
simply ignores any errors.
In some cases this is OK -- Intel's NPX applies reasonable defaults
for floating point exceptions.

To get the same results with FreeBSD, you need to modify the programs
to set the exception mask yourself. Try the following program:
-----
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <floatingpoint.h>
main( int argc, char **argv )
{
double a, b;
/*
* Mask all exceptions if argc > 1
*/
if ( argc > 1 )
fpsetmask( ~ (FP_X_INV | FP_X_DNML | FP_X_DZ | FP_X_OFL | FP_X_UFL | FP_X_IMP) );
a = 1.0;
b = cos(0.0) - 1.0;
a /= b;
/*
* This used to be necessary to avoid a kernel message ``pid %d (%s)
* exited with masked floating point exceptions 0x%02x''. The kernel
* now wraps this message with ``#ifdef NPX_DEBUG''
*/
fpresetsticky( FP_X_INV | FP_X_DNML | FP_X_DZ | FP_X_OFL | FP_X_UFL | FP_X_IMP );
}
-----
bash$ cc fpx.c -lm
bash$ ./a.out
Floating point exception (core dumped)
bash$ ./a.out no

This happened to me when i upgraded to pine4, considering that my editor
is pico from that package. I downgraded to pine3 again and everything went
fine.

If you plan on using "outpost.nada.org" then you need to have the
National Automobile Dealers Association administrators put you
in their DNS config.
This assumes you have a relationship with them, of course.

Hello.
What parameters I have to use for my cd-rom. It is connected as a
seconadary master now. When I give it these params it conflicts with the
disc controller.
Also in the Handbook I have read that the sound cards are located in
in Multimedia of the Options screen. But I have no a single field there!
The version I try to install is 2.2.7
Help me please.
Thank you.

when i use ppp, everything works fine. i can connect, the login is fine,
and it goes into packet mode and changes to PPP. however, after that i
am unable to ping even my gateway (it just hangs) let alone anything
else. i'm using dynamic PPP. i sent along all the relevant files i could
think of. i had a couple friends who were familiar with freeBSD help me
and they couldn't figure it out either. we did a tcpdump -i tun0 and it
shows packets going out, but nothing coming back in. any suggestions?
thanks,
-brian

Someone correct mew if i'm wrong, but my foggy memory recalls somethng
like...
if you remove the /usr/lib/libcrypt* symbolic links to descrypt* and
instead link them to libscrypt*, and then recompile the system, the DES
passwords should still work fine AND the passwords created from that point
onwards will be MD5.
Of course, any ports using -lcrypt may have to be recompiled too.

There seems to be frequent newbie-confusion over the questions link
on the freebsd web pages. It appears to the casual visitor to
be an email link to an official help desk, and it takes occasionally
several emails to clear up this impression, and point out the truth
that the user has wandered into an quasi-anarchic commune.
It might eliminate some problems if the link led to another page
which said:
"Fill out this form to post your question to the world-wide
mass circulation 'freebsd-questions' mailing list. A happy
volunteer will probably get back to you in a few minutes
or hours. Click here to read Greg Lehey's "getting the most
out of f-q" Click here to browse the FAQ, which might
get you an instant answer to your question. Click here
to browse the FreeBSD on-line User Manual. Click here to
subscribe to f-q, (not necessary to get a response, but nice)."
I'd say that links to FAQ and manual should be to ascii versions of
same, to facilitate web-browser based searching.

Hi,
> I can't ping nor traceroute to outpost.nada.org.
Do you have something like this set in your rc.conf?
peloton: {12} grep peloton /etc/* | more
/etc/rc.conf:hostname="peloton.physics.montana.edu" # Set this!
You'll also need a line like:
ifconfig_de0="inet 153.90.192.177 netmask 255.255.255.0"
in rc.conf as well.

What can I do with this dinosaur?
Will minimal freebsd install take too much space?
I know I'll have to buy more rom... (I don't even have a keyboard nor a
screen!!!) I intend to connect it to my PC (166 Mhz, 32MB RAM, 3,2Gb, 33.6
Mdem, CDROM, etc...) running FreeBSD227R and win95.
I'd like to know what hardware I should buy.
Any suggestions or comments is welcome!

hi,
I know FreeBSD 2.2 cannot handle EIDE drives greater than 500 MB.
As instructed in the book, we have to partition it into 2 boot
partitions, one for win and one for FreeBSD. I am wonder if
the upcoming FreeBSD 3.0 still has that problem. Frankly, it is
quite not friendly. Even if I put 400 MB partition for Windows,
where c:\windows will be installed, it is too tight for it. I am
having problem with that. When I install some program, which will
create a TEMP directory in either c:\windows or c:\, it is often
enough to see "insufficient disk space". That is why I am wondering
if that problem is resolved. By the way, if you don't mind, why
doesn't linux have that problem?
Thanks,

Hello,
I am having a small problem setting passwords with the apache httpd
program. Everything works fine from the setup of the .htpasswd file. The
passwords look somewhat similar to the ones in the passwd file, but the
only problem is that when I try to access the directory with several of
the user names and passwords none work!!
I am not knowledgeable about bryot to be able to make sure all is well
any suggestions? I beleiev I have DES installed on the system &
downloaded the FREEBSD 2.2.5 apache version from the apache.org site
thanks
paul

want if anything are people using for scsi tape changers on Stable? ...
Specifically I'm looking at getting a new HP SureStore 6X24 DDS-3 autoloader
( HP Part# - C5650B#ABA)
I know that the SureStore DDS-3 works fine ... but not having to change
tapes for a couple of days would be nice ....

Yes. I've been trying to figure out why this was occurring, and I
think you solved the problem! I use 'mutt' as my mailer, but invoke
'pico' to edit the messages. Occasionally, some of my outgoing mail
has UUUUU's at the beginning of the file. 'pico' appears to have a
bug.
Looks like you're going to have to learn 'vi'! :-)
Seriously, though, you should probably send in a bug report to the
Pine/Pico developers.

First, do you have outback.nada.org (or whatever it was) registered as a
domain name? What network device do you have (other than lo and tun) -
those are just the loopback and serial port devices. Do you have a
network card? If so you need a line that contains it like:
network_interfaces="de0 lo0"
where here my de is my network card. You'll also need to add your IP
address to this as I showed before w/ an ifconfig line:
ifconfig_de0="inet 153.90.192.177 netmask 255.255.255.0"

Then take the signal-handler-approach and have a look at:

Please give some more details about what you are doing and what
is going on, i.e. use <Alt>-F2 to watch the console-output. while
installing. The problem/error should be printed to this console.
Please give some more details about
- Your hardware / install-medium
- install-type (are you trying to install from an FAT-32-partition ?)
- where exactly the install fails
- and describe the symptoms

Maybe a DNS-request from nmbd.
Take a packet-log (tcpdump or ipfw-log) and check for packets

Think about using a "netmask". Have a closer look at the example in

Well, I'm no wizard myself, but I'll give your question a shot.

There are three sizes involved here: 1) the device block size, which I
believe is set to 512 bytes for historical reasons; 2) the filesystem
block size, which is usually 8K; 3) and the filesystem fragment size,
usually 1/8th the filesystem block size thus 1K. Fragments are used
to store small files or pieces of files within whole blocks. Whole
blocks reduce overhead for large files thus giving better throughput
while fragments use up "slack" space.

The filesystem should remain efficient. However, applications which
read the directory may be overwhelmed. For example, ls sorts the names
of the files in a directory before outputing them. Running ls on a
directory with many thousands of files in it could take a while.

Try reading "A Fast File System for Unix" by McKusick et al. This
explains all the gory details you might want to know and also gives
a good discussion about how block size affects performance / space
available for data. This and many other fascinating Unix related
papers are available at http://www.freebsd.org/doc.
Also read the manual page for newfs(8). If you have the time and
resources available, try creating a filesystem with a 4KB block size
and see how that affects space used and performance.

Hi, I'm T.Furuya.
Did you check /usr/src/share/doc/handbook.
Handbook needs make.
So you should goto /usr/src/share/doc/handbook, and type
make all install
.
If Handbook source is not updated, there is a ports for handbook.
So, try it.

Okay... there's been little confusion here...
All I want to do is to be able to browse my own http server, with its
name, even if I'm not connected to any network. Is that possible?

Strange, there's no such directory... I did included the doc-all line in

Hi,
I am using FreeBSD 2.2.6 on a Pentium II 266 MHz PC with 64 MB memory
and Matrox Millenium II AGP video board. I am running the XFree86
version that comes in the FreeBSD 2.2.6 release.
I compiled the kernel with options DDB, BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER,
UCONSOLE, and GDB_REMOTE_CHAT. My .xinitrc file
runs xterm with the -C flag (so that the initial xterm would grab
the system console).
I am adding some modifications to the kernel and would like to be able to:
- set a breakpoint in DDB; continue;
- start X;
- run an application (Netscape) that causes the kernel breakpoint to be
reached; AND
- drop into DDB so that I can examine register, processes, etc.
Unfortunately, when the breakpoint is reached, the system simply hangs
instead of dropping into DDB.
I also would like to be able to drop into DDB by pressing Ctrl-Alt-ESC
when the X server is running. Unfortunately, this key combination is
ignored by the system unless the screen is in console mode.
Is there any way to use DDB when the X server is running?
Thanks,
Jose'

The siplest way to do that would be:

bind
In /etc/hosts:

Hi,
I got a problem with setting up HylaFAX which I do not understand.

I installed HylaFAX v4.0pl2 on FreeBSD-2.2.6-STABLE. My computer
is a IBM ThinkPad 560, and my PCCARD modem is a ELSA MicroLink
33.6MC which is Class-2.0-capable.
I set ServerTracing to 0x3ffff and also SessionTracing, in order
to obtain maximum information. But in HylaFAX' log-dir no session
trace shows up.
The modem itselfs works fine with cu and slip. (You received this
email message, though.) I looked into the source code, especially
into faxd, but I do not understand which specific condition causes
the modem to appear "wedged".
HylaFAX' FAQ does not mention this problem. So my question is:
What is going wrong here? Maybe there is a point which I am totally
missing.
I would very much appreciate if some kind soul could put me on the
right track. I do not have the slightest idea what I could check
further.
Please let me know if I shall provide any additional information.
Thanks!
-Bernd

I've been having a few problems trying to install FreeBSD 2.2.7 on a
Gateway Pentium 233.
I would load off of the boot disk, and go through the kernel
configuration and disable devices that I don't have, and then after I
save and quit I just get a solid cursor in the upper left hand corner
of the screen.
If, however, I disable the PS/2 mouse I am able to get the install to
proceed. Does anyone have any idea why the PS/2 mouse causes things
not to work? Is there a way to use the PS/2 mouse with the system that
won't cause a conflict?
Any suggestions are appreciated.

We have had lots of problems with de driver after it was upgraded to new
version (this one included the now-fixed BNC-port bug, for example). These
problems include
- port gets confused when cable unplugging the cable for a moment (no
buffer space available). ifconfig down and up fixes this, but it is
annoying.
- autodetect seems to easily drop to bnc, but will never come back to TP,
until manually fixed or forced in configuration.
- 100 Mbps no-name MM-fiber cards which worked before stopped working.
- 100 Mbps seems to produce various reliability problems, causing instant
panic on boot until the host is switched to 10 Mbps port. I cannot figure
out when this happens. This is strange as it may happen to a host which
has been fine for months, and then it just refuses to work with 100 Mbps
port any more.
As -current seems to have a ton of fixes and many of them seem to be
potentially related to our problems, is there by any change of -current
fixes finding their way back to -stable soon ? If not, has anyone tested
the -current driver with -stable lately ?

I think you'll have a hard time finding jumpered network cards
anymore. I use Kingstons in everything I build and use, with no problems
so far. Plus, they work pretty darn well under other operating systems
too. Heck, I don't even have to set them up with a boot disk or anything,
plug in and start installing FreeBSD.

Your system does not seem to hangup.
So, this is rather good. But this makes problem difficult to solve.
When the sector on wd0 is broken, the last two error messages will
appear in /var/log/messages.
So, If you can check the secter is really broken or not,
it will help solve this problem, for example, check the disk
by windows scandisk or norton utilities, or write to all of vacant
disk area and read all file.
They say that the recent eide disks are implemented the automatic remapping
function, in this case, so even if the sectors are actually broken,
they are substituted, no bad secters may be found.
If you cannot access that disk after the error message,
probably, wd driver does no work well.
So, check /usr/src/sys/i386/isa/wd.c,
and find out the lines such as
du->dk_timeout = 1 + 3;
and increase the value.
There are several views that the failure of disk is cause by
the heat or the unstable power supply.

Nope. Why bother, though? If all you're doing is web hosting, something
like Apache can do as many virtual hosts as you'd like with a single IP.

This is untrue. Many people are running drives in excess of 8 GB.
I have a 386DX which is quite pleased with a 1.2GB IDE disk.

True. The bootable partition for FreeBSD (or any other OS, barring
special boot loaders) must lie within the first 1024 cylinders,
after logical block translation. This is a BIOS problem.

I doubt that any BSD ever plans to share a partition with windoze.
This is very ill-advised, and best left to linux, where the practice
is also widely deprecated. THe performance degradation is phenomenal,
as is the real risk of corruption from rogue programs (such as the
OS) when running Windoze.

Which problem? It is quite possible to use the other partitions
(and extended partitions) for more space in Windoze, if that's the
problem.

Actually a 386 with 8 megs is quite a useable configuration for
many things. You might want to get more RAM, but it depends what
you want to do.
300 megs is plenty of disk space for the base system with X, some
apps, and the compiler and tools.
Such a machine would be a good internal web server for a small network
or a great PPP router/firewall for home. I ran linux on a similar machine
for a long time, and was very happy with it--I was running X, too.
FreeBSD will be as good or better.
So toss a network card in the 386 and go. You probably don't even need a
monitor. Use the monitor from your other machine to configure and install
the 386, then toss the machine in the closet and forget about it.
Alternatively, do it the other way around: make your 386 an Xterm, and
toss your big pentium box in the closet. :)

basically if you are going to want to run X then you need to have the
debugging output be redirected to com1.
to do this you will need another device (terminal or PC)
attached to com1 at 9600 baud and boot with -hd
-h toggles the console between com1 and the vga/keyboard
Note.. The keyboard may still drop you into the debugger with
<CTL><ALT><ESC> if you don't have X running, but the debugger will
appear on com1..
(use cu -l cuaa1 to see it)
(or tip or kermit or any other terminal program)
when it stops in the debugger (that's what -d does) then set your
breakpoint and continue.
don't forget to move your mouse to com2..
If you have another BSD machine then you can do even better....
compile the kernel on the 2nd machine with
config -g
this will make a HUGE debug kernel.
copy it to kernel.strip and
strip -d kernel.strip.
copy kernel.strip to the test machine
and boot that.
when you enter the debugger, type 'gdb'
then
's'
a line of garbage will appear instead of the normal ddb prompt.
the is the gdb remote protocol.
go to the 2nd machine, to the compile directory (with the huge kernel)
type:
cat >.gdbinit <<DONE
file kernel
set remotebaud 9600
target remote /dev/cuaa1
DONE
now type
gdb
you will find that you are now in gdb doing "source level" debugging
able to set breakpoints and single step etc, all with access to the
sources and all variables..
using xxgdb(ports) makes it even sweeter with the ability to
use the graphical interface and watch the little arrow walk through the
source as the kernel single steps..

Actually the error was no entry for language c, I sent an attachment to
Greg, it is about 70 lines of text that lead up to the error. Hopefully
someone knows how to fix this because I cvsupped to current and that
didn't work either.

This is clearly queer.
I have experience that the sectors on eide drive are broken,
and access to the bad sectors causes error.
But at that time, the system display error messages like "XXXX i/o error",
and that process dies but the system recover.
(At first, system halted like your system, and I fixed that defects.)
So your driver code does not work well, probably timeout routine.
For example, ahc_timeout,,,,.
But I did't read your driver code, so I cannot say any further.
Sorry, I should not write here.
Would debug option of driver code help you ?

This statement is displayed by /usr/src/sys/vm/swap_pager.c .
Because the one process cannot access disk, any other waiting processes
cannot access disk and are waiting.

If you install kernel debugger DDB into kernel, will help you little.
When kernel hangs up, invoke ddb by typing Cntrl-Alt-Esc from system
console. Don't use X, at this time. X ignores Cntrl-Alt-Esc.
And make timeout forcibly, and when disk seek ended, type 'continue'.
If several trial failed, then type 'panic', this will reboot system
safely.
And fsck.
At least, this prescription worked when eide wd driver was bad.

Hello Experts
(also cc'd to freebsd-mobile)
OK. This one has me doing the headless chicken dance.
I have got X to work on my laptop OK, the final problem is getting it to
use the entire screen. The screen is an 11" TFT screen on a Toshiba
Satellite 110CT laptop. The video card is a chips & technologies CT65548
(1 MB). I am using the SVGA server with Xfree 3.3.2.2 on FreeBSD
2.2.7-RELEASE
The problem is that though it loads into 800x600@8bpp there is a 1 inch
gap around the entire screen. I have played with the option settings
below with the help from the c&t section of the xfree86 website. The
lcd-center option is required otherwise the display is shifted to the
left corner.
I calculate that I would have to have more than 1MB video ram to run at
better than 800x600@8bpp - am I correct?
I hope the stuff below gives you enough information. I have exhausted my
expertise in this area. The first bit is the relevant section from
XF86Config, the second bit is standard error when startx is invoked.
Any thoughts on this, or a XF86Config known to work with this chipset,
are appreciated.
Thanks

You might also be able to use the recvspace and sendspace sysctl's
to set the default socket buffer receive and send buffer spaces.
This would fix up all of your applications simultaniously.
I'm not sure that these sysctl's are in 2.2.6, but they are certainly
in -current...

The session logs only activate once HylaFAX establishes a connection
with remote fax machine. However, I must admit that your syslog traces
is very sparse for the debug level you've set. How does your LogFacility:
setting compare to syslog.conf?

The `wedged' status is when HylaFAX thinks that the modem is not
responding. If possible run faxgetty on the line, with appropriate
debug levels set, as the chatter between it and your modem will always
give you an indication of how healthy the HylaFAX config is.
Try contacting the flexfax@sgi.com mailing list for more help.

I would like to start off by saying, I quit using Linux a long, long time
ago.. FreeBSD is a far superior environment. Period. I do have a
question, and yes, FreeBSD is compared to Linux (just for example purposes
only, so please don't get mad.) In Linux, I can type in>
% telnet ppp12345.aolsucks.com
"ppp12345.aolsucks.com" being my current dynamic address.
<and that will let me telnet to my own machine without problem.
However, in FreeBSD, I have to type>
% telnet localhost
<for me to telnet to myself [just for testing purposes btw].
I was told that the only way a computer to talk to itself over the
internet, was through loopback. Obviously, though, I could through Linux
without loopback compiled into the kernel. How can I get the same results
(not having to type localhost, but my IP address instead) for FreeBSD?
*Any* help would be GREATLY appreciated,
--Please reply by direct e-mail! Thanks!

I'd suggest reinstalling X and make sure you pick up all the essentials
and go through XF86Setup or xf86config throughly.

You must specify a netmask for aliases. If this IP is in the same subnet
as the primary IP, use the netmask 255.255.255.255 (0xffffffff).

While you can have as many files and directories in a directory as you
want (provided you have enough space and inodes(*) on the partition),
having too many entries in a directory slows down all directory
operations. This does not only affect programs that sort the entries,
but also the kernel.
Every time a file in the directory is accessed, the file system has to
make a linear search through the directory to find the file's entry,
and every time a file is created, the directory is searched for a free
entry (or is extended after none has been found). While the directory
itself will be held in the buffer cache to avoid frequent disk access,
the search through the directory structure itself is expensive if you
have a million entries.
Look at what apache does in the proxy cache: in the cache directory it
creates a lot of subdirectories, each with a name one character long,
and in each of these again subdirectories of the same kind. This
hierarchy is by default three levels deep. For file and directory
names apache uses the 64 characters [a-ZA-Z0-9@_]. If you have three
levels of directories, you have 64**3 = 2**18 directories at level 3,
and if you put up to 64 files into these directories, you have 2**24
== 16 Million files.
To access one of these files, you need to search four directories each
64 entries long (in the worst case), which is a search over 256
entries -- significantly less than a search through a directory of a
million entries. You have to open three more directories for the
search, but that will easily pay off.
(*) The number of inodes (which hold the information about a file; a
directory entry is a reference to the inode) is definitely an issue if
we talk about a million files. Today I made a file system of 8.5 GB on
a new disk (under Solaris, though), and newfs created 1048060 inodes
-- barely enough for your case. You can change that number with an
option to newfs (look for "number of bytes per inode" in newfs(8)) to
have enough inodes for you files and directories.
Greetings, Juergen.

I think it confuses the driver. What device is this, anyway? I think
it's a 3com but I'm not sure.

Actually, support may have been added in 2.2.7 with the ThunderLAN driver.
The NetFlex is based on the same equipment as the ThunderLAN.

Use FTP 'ASCII' mode. It translates the line terminations correctly.

Sure. There's a gettytab capability 'pp' that will start the indicated
program if getty receives PPP frames.

Not in the sense you're probably thinking of. You'll have to remount /pub
underneath /usr as a directory. Assuming /pub is an independent partition
of course.

Yeah, it's a:
vx0 <3COM 3C595 Fast Etherlink III PCI> rev 0 int a irq 9 on pci0:10:0
My net works, so by "confusing the driver," do you mean poorer
performance? I don't want to disable auto select because then I'll
have trouble (I think) when I move my machine between 10 and 100 Mbs
hubs. I imagine I'll have to reconfigure my card every time I switch.

Sure, although we use the stock xntpd client that's available on the Net.

Hello,
Sorry if that's something obvious, but I'm really confused. What's
wrong with using MSF LKM? It's marked as broken in sources and it's stated
in handbook that MSF must be compiled into kernel. Meanwhile, I'm using it
as LKM for almost a year (FreeBSD-current), and haven't seen anything
wrong with it. Is my computer going to hit me over the head eventually for
this abuse or is this module all right after all?
Thanks for advice,

Make sure the jumper is set to Single (sometimes it's the same as master,
sometimes not) and try power-cycling your system. The drive thinks it's
busy doing something.

It's not necessary to capitalize every word. The space indicates the
boundary between words. :-)
To answer the question:
1. Only the IDE and SCSI Zip has the possiblity of doing this.
2. Not all SCSI controllers support booting removables.
3. Not all BIOSes support booting IDE removables, if they support them at
all.

upsd is more or less mine now, I haven't had the time to fiddle with it.
I suggest finding a copy of 2.0.1.6.1, which is adapted for 120 volt
usage. It used to be on my workstation, which isn't reachable from the
world. I have it for http download only from
http://resnet.uoregon.edu/dwhite/upsd-2.0.1.6.1.tgz.

Why buy anything? Hook it up as a router for when you can find a dusty
old P75 ore something. Or, maybe you could use it to check your email
while your regular computer is compiling code. At leased then you would
only have to find a serial connector of some sort.
I personally use my old 386 for compiling small java apps that I'm not
in a hurry for. That way I can send some small peices that I know are
finished through the 386 while I am still working on my Pentuim. I cheat
though. I have an old monochrome monitor on it. You should be able to
access it as an X-server without a problem though....
Just an idea.

Hello.
The question is: are there any analogs of MS Ofiice '97 for Unix? If yes,
how expensive are they?
Thank you,

There is a LDAP daemon port, what that has to do with NetMeeting I have no
idea.

You are actually running at 640x480, which is why you see the 1"
border. The LCD can't do any better than 800x600.
This can be seen by the output from the SVGA server:

The reason you don't get a 800x600 is because it has been deleted
earlier when the SVGA server compares the refresh rate required by
a mode to the refresh rate of your monitor. You didn't give the
Monitor section, so I can't tell for sure.
My 410CDT has the following Monitor section:
Section "Monitor"
HorizSync 31.5-48.5
VertRefresh 55-90
EndSection
I am _NOT_ sure that this is the correct setting. YMMV.
Not responsible for burned LCD screens. However, it does
permit me to run 800x600 on my laptop. (I originally set
these up with the idea of connecting the laptop to an external
monitor, but haven't had the chance to do that yet)

As long as 'tcp_extensions=YES' in rc.conf, then those extensions are
enabled, yes. You can confirm with the command:
sysctl net.inet.tcp.rfc1323
If it's set to 1 then it is enabled.

You need to build a new kernel with
pseduo-device bpfilter 4
in the config file.

I assume it was an accident that the same message was sent four times

There are several pop servers available in the ports tree. The Washington
pop server (in the imap package) is good, and our sysadmins are raving
about cucipop. qpopper is pretty much dead as a result of the major
security bugs found recently and it's bloated stature.

This doesn't particularly belong on -questions; it'd be more appropriate
for -chat and maybe -isp.

Considering it's at boot, it's probably okay. We have a Dell laptop that
does the same thing (the wd probe must kick the disk in an unhappy way)
but works perfectly otherwise.

It's a known bug in Pico 4.0[01]. Upgrade to the latest Pine to remedy.

I don't think FreeBSD's network model permits this.
Just how would you set up the routing for this, anyway?

Yes, it should. Perhaps it landed in /usr/doc?

Did you do 'unlimit' first? The shell put on some of it's limits on top
of the login.conf limits first.

David or another hacker will have to comment but a lot of these are

You're probably short of mbufs all right. If you can, try opening fewer
connections, then closely watch netstat -m, this line in particular:
35/164 mbuf clusters in use
If the number after the slash (max mbufs used) gets near 4000, crank up
NMBCLUSTERS some more.
Check the mail archives for futher details, this has be discussed numerous
times prevously.

hello there.
i am having a problem getting my digital ethernet card to work.
i can run
ifconfig de0 xxx.xxx.xx.xx 255.255.255.0 media 100BaseTX
and it seems to run fine at 100 mbps.
now, i have a 10mbs hub.
ifconfig de0 xxx.xxx.xx.xx 255.255.255.0 media 10BaseT/UTP
produces the following error:
ifconfig: sipcsifmedia: device not supported
typing just
ifconfig de0
in the last line says that:
supported media: autoselect 100BaseTX <full-duplex> 100BaseTX
So why is 100BaseTX there twice?
Also, is this my network card that doesn't support 10baseT or can i force
it to run at 10mbs somehow?
(network card bought from infotel , has a digital chip on it).
TIA.
Val.

And the reason: line?? Netscape puts that up for 90% of network errors.
Try 'telnet outpost.nada.org 80' and see what happens. If you get
connected then it's not a DNS or Apache problem.

3.0 is in pretty bad shape at the moment while the ELF transition happens.
The last stable period was in late July, the 22nd sticks in my mind.

Nope. `find / -name handbook` gives me:
/usr/share/doc/handbook
/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/share/doc/handbook
/usr/ports/japanese/handbook
Hmmm... where could it possibly be? Is it in the /usr/obj/ dir, but not in
/usr/src? how could that be? I cleared /usr/obj/ before making world...
Thanks Doug! I didn't thank you for all the answers you gave me, and I
don't think people thank you enough for what you do. Since the beginning
you are there answering my stupid questions with the same patience, so
much that I know a lot more now!
Thanks

Run 'add 0 0 HISADDR' manually after connecting.
Don't shell out of PPP.

The problem is fixed. See the mail sent by David Langford...
I changed this line:
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.my.domain
to:
127.0.0.1 outreach.nada.org nada localhost
Telnet nada 80 works!

There is a Handbook section on creating emergency boot floppies; see

Do you have your .htaccess file set up correctly?

Hey guys.
I was wondering if there was any editor or viewer in FreeBSD to view
WordPerfect format documents.
I see a lot of editors in the ports collection, but I don't want to
install a lot of ports if none of them will work.
Likewise, I see that there is a program that converts msword format
documents into text format. Anything similar for the worderfect format?
Thanks for any assistance.
Jeremy

Don't delete sc0; that redirects the console output to the serial port. :)

That usually means there was a problem installing the bin distribution.
Double check that all the files exist and there is sufficient space
dedicated to the root partition.
Also check the ALT-F2 debug console for messages.

The problem may be that ppp12345.aolsucks.com isn't a real address, or
your DNS isn't configured correctly.
FreeBSD does everything in it's power to keep you from wasting network
bandwidth doing local connections. It installs a route that will redirect
connections to your local IP to the loopback IP instead, so telnetting to
yourself is identical to doing 'telnet localhost'.

You haven't been touching /etc/master.passwd without using vipw, have you?
Try rebuilding the database by going into vipw, making a small change,
putting it back, then save&quit.

That's it, this is going into the FAQ. And why do people keep selecting
this, anyway!?!?!
You have to reinstall the bin distribution.

You don't. Your card is 100mbit-only.

You can't chop one partition into two without getting out your backup

yes, several. StarOffice is the perennial favorite, although recent
versions require some system hacking. ApplixWare is next, and according
to Walnut Creek a FreeBSD port is forthcoming (yay!!). Finally I
discovered WordPerfect for Linux works great under the emulator, and at
$39.99 educational it's hard to pass up!

How about WordPerfect? You can buy WP7 for Linux for $40 educational.

Possibly. The 595 may not correctly support autoselection (which
shouldn't be confused with autonegotiation).

But it got left when you finished.
Oh, I know -- tags aren't applied to the doc tree, so the
RELENG_2_2_7_RELEASE tag won't catch it. You'll have to override the tag
for that collection like you did for ports.

I betting my head here but, if wordperfect saves its files as .doc, you
should be able to use ports/textproc/catdoc

I am looking for information regarding the bt848 driver. Recently my video
capture
software began giving me an error stating a bt848 driver error and that it
could not be
found. I was directed to your site by RSS in hopes to find the driver. On
this site I did
indeed find a link to the driver, but it only showed a file not found error.
If you could
help me in anyway I would greatly appreciate it. I can be contacted at
Mack1069@aol.com
Thank You For Your Time,
Gus Timbers

If your DNS/resolv.conf settings are correct, this will work on
FreeBSD as well.

Hi
I tried recently:
finger $user
finger: beaupran: no such user
hmmm. I am. I am a user.
ok let's try the root:
beaupran@outpost [7:22pm] ~> finger root
Login: root Name: Charlie Root
Directory: /root Shell: /usr/local/bin/tcsh
Never logged in.
No Mail.
No Plan.
good. this works...
curious...
BTW, why the 'Charlie' before the root? Is it a traditional root nick?

The confusion lies in that most newbies assume that any reply from
freebsd-questions is from the FreeBSD organisation (whatever *that*
means), and that their answer is the canonical truth (as opposed to
some of the my-best-guess answers that sometimes come up here). Worse
yet, if you get a terse rude reply it'd sure turn people away if they
believed that the FreeBSD `official' helpdesk were made up weirdos
instead of volunteers.
Having the additional text in the web-page would go a *long* way towards
clearing up that.
Cheers.

Sure. There's a gettytab capability 'pp' that will start the

program if getty receives PPP frames.
Sounds good. Would you happen to know if NT authentication can
be used?
Thanks for the quick reply

You'd save me a lot of time if you'd quote the original message and
copy -questions; see http://www.lemis.com/questions.html for more
details.
Here's the original message, which I had to dig out again:

OK. Thanks.
This doesn't make much sense to me, but since it's only borderline
-questions material (IIRC it was an old 3.0-snap, which would belong
in -current if anybody cared about old versions), I'd suggest one of:
1. make -k world. You'll end up without one part of the PSD, which
hasn't changed in years.
2. Get a new snap.
Personally, I'd opt for (1).

Look in /usr/libexec for ftpd.
Look in /etc/inetd.conf to see if it is turned on.
Check that you actually have a loopback device and that localhost is
mapped to it.

Hi,
I now have a static IP adress from my ISP. Is there anyway I can combine this
with my domain name that I have registered to have a web site on my computer
that can be called with the domain name I have registered.
Thanks Alot

Mine does SMB file/print serving and domain logons, DHCP, and DNS for
a small (25 client) classroom network. I believe i managed to fit
quite a bit more than the minimal on there.

You'll need a keyboard/monitor for initial setup, but they can be
removed and you can use a serial console afterwards.

You didn't exactly say what you wanted to do. At least now you know
what I managed to do with a box that only had a little bit more
processor power.

Dear friends,
First, Please forgive me if this is not the place to question about my
problem. I just have installed freeBSD for the first time. I have been in
Linux for several time, so i am not completely blind about un*x variant
OSes.
Second, The problem is :
1) Is it true that there is indicator meter that shows you how much in size
for packages
you have selected before installing them ? To prevent the possibility
selecting packages
with size > total space available ?
2) I see that many of basic / most needed utils like X window and WM is not
dependable,
and we have to config everything manually. Is this true ? Under linux
distribution
though they are not doing 100 % for us, but they simplify things by using
default script
3) I don't want to install all sources, but kernel only. How much space i
need for installing
kernel sources and under which package name ? I need to build my own
kernel.
4) When I want to mount_ext2fs, it said ext2 filesystem not available. What
does it mean ?
Third, I am using K6/200, 32 Megs and 2.2.6 FreeBSD 4 CDset
Please forgive me if what i ask already on the FAQ and HandBook.. I read
most of them, but I might miss them.
Thank you
Regards,
Leonard Ong

Heya-
In lots of applications in /usr/ports... I get errors like:
(copyed from failed make of dox from enlgihtenment)
Making all in dox
"Makefile", line 252: Need an operator
make: fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue
*** Error code 1
Stop.
line 252: -include $(DEP_FILES)
the strangest things though, when a make fails... it is *always* that
line. Could it be an automake problem?

I ran in to that error to, try moving that line up to line 251 by
backspacing it, it really belongs on the line up.

Is there support under FreeBSD for the new SDL 800/805
HSSI/DS3 boards? Has anybody used them and experienced their
performance under traffic on a FreeBSD system? Will it
communicate in a point-to-point with a Cisco over a clear
channel DS3 (HDLC or Cisco HDLC)?
Thanks for any info...
Sincerely,

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying here, Doug. There *have*
been problems with IDE disks with more than 8 GB under 2.X, and
they've only just been resolved (after 2.2.7-RELEASE). Jeff, if you
have a disk like that, you should upgrade to 2.2-STABLE.

FreeBSD does run on DEC Alpha. It's alpha quality, too, however. For
more information, sign up on the FreeBSD-alpha mailing list.

You can't login as root directly, but you have to make a new user and
put it in group wheel. Then after you log in as this user you can
type 'su', enter the root password et voila: you are root.

Telnet is very insecure though, why don't you try ssh instead?
Besides, ssh lets you login as root and encrypts your session.

I have the apache patches for SSL implementation from
http://www.itb.it/apache/dist/contrib/Apache-SSL/
Main Features
Free for both commercial and non-commercial use.
128 bit encryption worldwide.
Client authentication.
Full source code.
Modular extension API.
What is Apache-SSL?
Apache-SSL is a secure Webserver, based on Apache and SSLeay. It is
licensed under a BSD-style licence, which means, in short,
that you are free to use it for commercial or non-commercial purposes,
so long as you retain the copyright notices. This is the same
licence as used by Apache from version 0.8.15.
and the files to implement the SSLeay configuration.
SSLeay is a free implementation of Netscape's Secure Socket Layer - the
software encryption protocol behind the Netscape Secure
Server and the Netscape Navigator Browser.
SSLeay implements both SSLv2 (version 2) and SSLv3 (version 3) and TLSv1
as of the release of SSLeay-0.9.0.
now what else do I need to recomplie apache for SSL operation.?

Right on all counts. This was an old Packard Bell that I took as a trade-
in when I built someone a new computer. I stuck a 500 meg HD and four
1 meg SIMMS in it (for a total of _SIX_ meg -- wow!!) and installed FreeBSD
by FTP, just for the hell of it.
I never did get it to successfully Make World, and Kernels took 12+ hours.
Useful as a terminal, though, and I've used it to test things that I didn't
want screwing up my main box when I inevitably did it wrong the first time
<;-)

I agree...Everyone should be using ssh. However, logging in directly as
root is still a bad idea, if for no other reason than that it promotes bad
habits.

Dear Friends,
I am really out of my wits, Please help me. I am new to FreeBSD though I
have some basic of Linux. I have editted most of /etc files including
passwd. On the first line of the root entry, i changed default shell
assigned by sysinstall ) to /bin/bash.
However, Everytime I boot, I always get csh instead of bash. On regular
account ( user account ), it is correct.
Please help me how to change csh to bash. The path to bash is correct, I
modified both entry ( root and leonard account by setting csh to bash ) but
root never worked while user account worked.
Thanks
Regards,

Hi there,
I was wondering if it is possible to track the amount of traffic that goes
through an IP number.
We have a small LAN with 5 machines and a FreeBSD gateway to our ISP. We
would like to divide Internet access costs up based on the machine - ie each
department pays for their use of the Internet. Mail is not really a problem
just web. We have a static IP with our ISP and all of our machines have
public IP numbers.
Can I use the logging facilities of the firewall to do this.
Cheers
Craig

I don't think,that we have routing problems, because both cards are connected to the same IP-segment. The problem is, how to tell the kernel, if one card dies, then take the other one.

I don't think FreeBSD's network model permits this.
Just how would you set up the routing for this, anyway?

Assuming you are talking about allowing root to log in directly via
telnet, you probably don't really want to do this. The usual way of
accomplishing this is to have normal users who are trusted with access to
the root account. These users log in as themselves and then use the "su"
command to become root. To tell the system that a user should be allowed
to su to root, add their username to the "wheel" group in /etc/group.

On www.freebsd.org/releases/2.2.7R/notes.html
it says the compaq netelligent ethernet cards are supported.
but on
www2.au.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook10.html
it didn't mention the compaq cards in the supported config list
Sounds confusing!
Also in the install menu where the devices and conflicts are listed, i
cant see the compaq netelligent ethernet listed.
Would the person who wrote the release notes tell me what to do!? I bought the company 6 machines which can't function with FreeBSD now......

Check might want to check the manual, the 112CT model as an Fn+F key short
cut to make the screen bigger/smaller. Once done, it stays that way,
across reboots, until the battery goes really dry.

Dear Sir,
I am a unix system beginner. I want to ask a small question:
If I want
to fetch a key from a keyboard without hitting the Enter Carrage key , how
do I do ? I remembered that there are two functions such as getch and
getche in Turbo C. It seemed that there is no such function in unix C. I
am now using FreeBSD Unix.
Thank you for your help.
With best wishes
huiy

Hello,
Does FreeBD supports the new Asus P5A and P5A-B motherboard ?
It has an Ali Aladin 5 chipset on it.
Many thanks.

You should use the 'vipw' command to edit the passwd file -- it does the
appropriate file locking and makes sure that *all* the password db files
get updated properly. Just editing /etc/passwd won't get you very far. If
you just want to change your own entry in the passwd file you can also use
the 'chpass' command.
Also, doesn't bash live in /usr/local/bin/bash?
HTH,
Scott.

That depends on your BIOS. You still need to be able to read the boot
partition, and the BIOS decides that. More modern BIOSes don't have
the 504 MB limit any more (they've introduced the 1 GB limit, the 2 GB
limit and the 4 GB limit :-) One of these days I'll try to write this
up.

Hello,
I am having some trouble installing 2.2.7-RELEASE. The machine I am
installing to does not have a CDROM or internet connection, so I am
installing via FTP over a LAN from a win95 machine running the WAR FTP
daemon - fetching the files from a local CDROM drive.
Basically, when it starts to install XF86, the installation stops. I get a
message similar to 'FTP shutdown called'. After turning on the DEBUG option,
it became clearer: The installation program seems to be trying to fetch
'XF86322/X322fnts.inf'. The FTP server replies with 'Permission denied',
because the file does not exist on the CD (or on ftp.freebsd.org).
I am not using the CD from walnut creek, but have recently downloaded the 2.
2.7-RELEASE tree from ftp.freebsd.org (using the on-the-fly tar feature of
the ftp site), and then burnt this onto a CD myself.
Is this a known problem with the 2.2.7 installation procedure? I can work
around this by installing X manually after a normal install has completed,
but I would like to know if others have had this problem too.
Thanks for any help,
Jeff

doc-all tag=.
CVSup will fetch the latest documentation sources into /usr/doc directory.
Then you should build and install documentation.
You'll need some ports installed to make the docs.
Look at the /usr/src/release/Makefile, the DOCPORTS variable is a list of
required ports (textproc/sgmlformat, etc.)
Hope this helps,

Just in case that's not clear, that's done by
# cd /usr/doc
# make all install
your new docs should end up in /usr/share/doc/.

Or you can install the port textproc/docproj, which will install all the
other ones that it needs.

What is the significance of the flag setting when configuring a sound
card in -c visual ? My card seems to be set up correctly but audio aps
moan about dma timeout. Setting flag to 0x100 at least made some sort
of sound come out, but still did not solve the problem... (i have a sb

Hello....
I first would like to thank you for such a great software that anyone else
would simply charge $$$$$$ for.... However, I need to know if I can
simulate a server over my own PC if I installed FreeBSD, the purpose here
is to debug Perl and CGI scripts on my computer and not to have to upload
them always, I also want to keep my version of Windows95 or WindowsNT
running.... please if you can help me with this issue,, send me the
instructions and how to do it........ and I would be grateful for your

Just be aware that for using SSLeay in the US, you need a BSafe license
from RSA (and I believe you are required to substitute their cipher code
for that in SSLeay). There is a special license plan for non-profits. For
individual commercial use, getting an RSA license is a practical
impossibility as I understand it.

Hi,
I'm trying to install nethack onto freebsd and it comes up saying it
can't find libXpm.so.4.10.
I assume this file should be in the /usr/lib directory but I don't know
what it is or where it's supposed to come from.
Any help appreciated,
William

Hi,
I'm using freeBSD 2.2.6 and want to mount fat32 partitions. I have been
told my a number of sources that this is not possible currently.
However, one kind fellow pointed me towards:
http://members.aol.com/hyama99/index.html
This patch for mount_msdos and the kernel seems to allow just that!
I was wondering whether anyone has tried this patch with success or
otherwise on 2.2.6, or whether there are any similar offerings from
elsewhere.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Rich.

Real work is relative, to some extent. If one is singleusering the box,
a small box at home is still fine. In the office, it is pushing the low
end.
I still do a lot of home singleuser play on a 386 box. Figure that 8 megs
ram is the practical minimum anymore, although I do have a tiny decstation
with 4 megs ram that runs fine as a command-line-driven box or ftp archive
box. So what if it is a tad slow on the home network? There, slow is
relative, and mostly unimportant.
For HD space, figure 300M is the minimum to leave you play space, sans X11.
If you want to do compiles and the like, 300mb is about the practical
working minimum. For a writing box, 300M is fine. For a websurfer, 300M
is fine. For source building and play, it is minimal, and about 500-600M
leaves you some workspace to play. Beyond that is gravy.
The practical minimal install is bin and manpages, plus maybe doc.
You can fit that comfily in 300M, with playspace to spare.
As to ram, the install won't anymore in 4 megs, but will in 8, including
X11. Beyond that is gravy.
A 387 coprocessor is nice if you can find one in the bilges of a computer
junk shop. If not, it is not mandatory.
I run several of these tiny boxes on the home net, with 3.0 snaps, and
they do well. It gives you a chance to crash the box and not have to
worry about it.....
These things are cheap and almost dumpster fodder anymore. Find a couple
and network them together and play.....
Good Luck....

I don't know, but I know that the latest release allows it. You may like
to upgrade to 227R, it's worth it! See my website...

I have been using the 23 May 3.0-SNAP at home and in the office, and it
has not broken yet. I had a couple of the later snaps crash and burn.
I dunno if I would use it for a commercial web server, but on my office
boxes and servers, and the home toys, it is doing great! Seamless ftp,
floppy, and tape installs in my hands, on all my lowendian boxes.
Kudos to the development crewe.....

Is it possible and/or secure?
I would wish to publish the FreeBSD sources in my ftp server without
having to duplicate them. I tried ln -s, but an anonymous login gives me
'No such file or directory.'
Anyway, is /usr/src/ the same source tree as
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/2.2.7-RELEASE/ (I'm on 227R...) ???
Thanks!

Hello everyone!
I was wondering if it is possible to install freebsd with win95 WITHOUT
reinstalling win95. That is partioning my hard drive without
reinstalling win95. Also can anyone elaborate the working of FIPS for me
and whether it is the right software for the job.
Thanx in advance
Faisal

hmm,
the card itself has 100 and 10 mbps activity lights.
The manual for it also mentions operations at 10mbps.
So i guess freebsd doesn't support this mode of operation?

Help :-)
I have recently upgraded sendmail(8.7.6) to sendmail(8.9.1/8.9.1) and need
to relay ONLY from local clients on a (192.0.0.*) internal network using
FreeBSD
2.1.5. (sendmail8.9.1) as an SMTP Server. They connect to the SMTP server
through
a second NIC(192) . I have tried to get sendmail to read /etc/mail/access
to allow 192
clients to relay by:
192.0.0 RELAY
It seems like sendmail never reads this file in. FEATURE(access_db) has
been
compiled into DOMAIN macro. The only way it will relay is if
FEATURE(promiscuous_relay)
is compiled in.
DOMAIN.m4 file = /usr2/ports/sendmail-8.9.1/cf/domain/CDUMAIL.m4 :
divert(0)
VERSIONID(`@(#)generic.m4 8.9 (Berkeley) 5/19/98')
define(`confFORWARD_PATH',
`$z/.forward.$w+$h:$z/.forward+$h:$z/.forward.$w:$z/.
forward')dnl
FEATURE(redirect)dnl
FEATURE(use_cw_file)dnl
FEATURE(access_db)dnl
GENERIC.mc file = /usr2/ports/sendmail-8.9.1/cf/cf/Cdu-FreeBSD.mc :

Did you create the map?

You'll need a keyboard/monitor for initial setup, but they can be
removed and you can use a serial console afterwards.

I know setuid changes are often asked about but I couldn't find anything in

inserted. The only difference appears to be in the date. Interestingly ssh
is linked to ssh1 now.

It may be possible, but it is probably not what you want to do,

No.
IF I am reading you correctly, you want to set up some sort of
FBSD archive site for local installs. That is a good way to
do things, and makes for fast installs, once loaded up the first
time on the local ftp server.
If you want to set up an ftp archive site for installing FBSD, you
might want to do it something like this....
1. When installing the machine originaly, DO NOT put ftp in /var.
Make him located in /home or /usr/home as others, so that he has
plenty of room to play in, OR, make /var plenty big to handle
the RELEASE space needed (150 megs minimally, for the basic
suite less all the tons of packages and ports distfiles).
There may be pro and con for keeping ftp in var, but I have
always set him up elsewhere, since I usually drop a lot of
junk there for remote use.
2. Set up the X.X.X-RELEASE tree in /home/ftp/pub just like it is on
freebsd.org (/home/ftp or /usr/home/ftp, or use a separate fs if
that is workable).
/home/ftp/pub/2.2.7-RELEASE/cdrom.inf
/xxxx.TXT (the install guides, etc)
/floppies
/bin
/manpages
(etc to suit)
3. Then when installing on other machines, point them to your local
ftp archive box to do the install. It works great, and I do that
all the time on my home and office networks. An install on another
box takes around 15-30 minutes that way.
IF you are actually wanting to mirror the actual source tree, tar it
up and put in in the ftp rather than link it so you keep a pristine
protected source tree in /usr, IMHO. The space considerations in
the ftp login still apply... have plenty of space available.
Good Luck
RDK

Subject: PPP problem with 2.2.7

I have a server that was running 2.2.2 and one night the server was turned
off (not shutdown properly). Upon restart the server developed a problem
with the hard drive that fsck was unable to fix. I decided to do a low
lever format on drive, which is an IDE drive. I then installed 2.2.7 on
this machine. 2.2.7 installed without a hitch.
The function of this machine is to use ppp for dial out internet access for
a group. Now the machine is back up and running but ppp doesn't work.
When I start ppp it just hangs for about 2 minutes and then gives me the
prompt back. My ppp startup line is "ppp -auto -alias htc. htc is the ISP
that I use.
Ppp works when I take the network card out of the machine, but it hangs
when the card is there. No hardware has been added removed or changed in
this machine since it ran 2.2.2. I repeat NO hardware has changed.
I know that there were changes to ppp, but where they that huge? I have
looked at the man page but I don't see a whole lot that's different.
Here is the run down on the machine:
486 DX/2 66
32 megs of memory
1.2 Gig Maxtor HD
3c509 NIC
Diamond SpeedStar 64 (OLD)
Monochrome Monitor

I'd expect to find it in /usr/X11R6/lib or /usr/local/lib, after
installation. Seems to be a "port" of it in /usr/ports/graphics/xpm.

Have you checked to make sure your COM port and the NIC are not on
conflicting IRQs? This would definitely cause a freeze in ppp.

Subject: Active partition problem - bootin in FreeBSD set it to "non-bootable"
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

I'll try to be short:
Every time I reboot (BootEasy, FSBD on prim. slave disk; DOS/W95 on
prim. master disk) somehow the Partition Flag of the prim. master disk
is set to ZERO (instead of 80), i.e. partition is NOT bootable.
I boot DOS - using fdisk I set it "Active" and reset the computer.
BootEasy presents its menu and I choose F5 --->>> FreeBSD.
FBSD boots fine. Everythink is (seems) OK.
I run fdisk and here is the output:
phome# fdisk
******* Working on device /dev/rwd0 *******
parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are:
cylinders=782 heads=128 sectors/track=63 (8064 blks/cyl)
parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are:
cylinders=782 heads=128 sectors/track=63 (8064 blks/cyl)
Media sector size is 512
Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1
Information from DOS bootblock is:
The data for partition 1 is:
sysid 6,(Primary 'big' DOS (> 32MB))
start 63, size 2048193 (1000 Meg), flag 0
beg: cyl 0/ sector 1/ head 1;
end: cyl 253/ sector 63/ head 127
The data for partition 2 is:
sysid 5,(Extended DOS)
start 2048256, size 4249728 (2075 Meg), flag 0
beg: cyl 254/ sector 1/ head 0;
end: cyl 780/ sector 63/ head 127
The data for partition 3 is:
<UNUSED>
The data for partition 4 is:
<UNUSED>
phome#
You see the "flag 0" ???
Ok, now I run fdisk -a wd0 and set the parftition Number 1 as active
(writing the result!! not -t option etc.).
Now reboot.
Successfull!!
I am in FBSD.
Fdisk again -->>> flag is zero again!
fdisk -a wd0 again.
Reboot
Success..
..
etc..
In a word, If I do not set the partition [active] with FreeBSD [or
DOS] fdisk -a wd0, computer says at a booting process:
NOT FOUND ANY ACTIVE PARTITION!!
Nothing to do with FBSD but after DOS-fdisk-set-active-partition I
boot Win95 as many times as I wish and there is no need to "fdisk"
again.
As far I boot in FBSD, the partition flag is set to 0.
Arrrrgh....

After spending several days trying and checking everything, I downgraded to
2.2.6 and everything was perfect. Anyone else have this problem?

Talking about binaries:
It must be compiled for FreeBSD (or Linux [see the linuxulator])
Talking about source-code:
It's a porting-problem.

Doug ... a search through the archives will reveal a mail originating
from Doug White saying something like " ... reinstalling is for
M$-things. FreeBSD is not a M$-thing so reinstalling is in most cases
not needed ...". When reading your mail i though to myself:
"YES !!! Very true."
John, if your X-installation went without any errors and problems,
we should be able to get it going:
/usr/include/errno.h:
#define ECONNREFUSED 61 /* Connection refused */
So, is there a X-server running and what are the permissions on
that server ?
neuron:~$ ls -al /usr/X11/bin/XF86_Mach64
-rws--x--x 1 root wheel 1748992 20 Jul 22:32 /usr/X11/bin/XF86_Mach64*
neuron:~$
What are the permissions on your server ?

Are you really a mathematician who can solve problems on his
own as they arise or are you just Mr. "Linux does this better
for me ..."-whining-basher ?
I don't give any explanation nor solution to your whining-problem
since Dave Bodenstab already did (btw his reply to you was excellent
and let's you look like a little pussy).

Traditionally a Teletype Model 37, according to Ritchie, from V1 days.
They be a bit scarce these days, and 110 baud is a tad slow.
Sometimes a Teletype Model 33 was used as a cheaper alternative.
Watch out if you use current loop as the interface of choice.
I blew up the board traces on my first machine by mixing loop/rs232 (OUCH!).
Sometimes glass ttys were used if you were rich and needed faster.
Practically, these days, any old leftover pc with kermit and vt100 emulation.

Sometimes the keyboard is required, because of hardware POST, but I use an

I just did this, Download the two disk images from 3com and boot off them,
you can rewrite the settings to the cards. My kernel didnot fail to boot,
I just wasn't able to use the interfaces... (I'm still having trouble but
hte problem is unrelated to pnp.)

Your question is answered in section 19.1 of the comp.lang.c FAQ available
at ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet-by-hierarchy/comp/lang/c/C-FAQ-list.
While there are people on this list who may be able to help you
with C programming, FreeBSD-Questions is devoted to FreeBSD specific
topics. You may have better luck in the future regarding questions
about C prograaming in comp.lang.c or comp.unix.programmer.

Question 1: I've installed FreeBSD on a clone, but when I go to edit the
.profile file to try to introduce the \w switch to the PS1 variable, I don't
seem to get any results; for the root, the prompt stays # and for the first
id I've added, I don't see the prompt altered in the way I expected. I've
edited at least two instances of .profile.
On page 152 and 144 of the "making friends with bsd" chapter of the book I
bought, one of the contributors offers a template for the PS1 variable. My
changes were made using that as a model. The results for root were nil.
The results for the first id I added were visible, but not what I desired.
The placement of the quotation marks seems to me to be crucial.
Can you tell me what other factors I might have to consider before seeing a
change in the prompt to display what should come out of using the string
\u @ \h \w ?
Question 2: Why does CD #1 of the four CD set list so many files at 0 bytes
length? I couldn't install many of the packages I wanted and this would
seem to be a factor.
Question 3: Is there a recommended CDROM driver I should activate for a CD
from a manufacturer named BTC? I'm working on this project in an education
center which has bought decided non-brand, low-cost equipment.

Subject: ThinkPad 770 hangs during boot -- available memory probe problem? (was: trouble with sio on Thinkpad 770)

Hi again,
It looks as though there may be a problem with the way FreeBSD determines
the amount of available memory at boot-up time (at least on my ThinkPad
770) --or-- that the latest 770 BIOS is not reporting the correct value.
I'm hoping someone might be able to help me narrow down the problem so
that we can either fix FreeBSD or give IBM useful details about their BIOS
problem. Here's the background which leads me to this conclusion:
I started the day with a ThinkPad 770 (96MB RAM) running 2.2.6-RELEASE and
PAO. Everything worked perfectly except that the kernel did not find any
sio devices at boot time. I wanted to get the serial port working. The
serial patch suggested below did not help. Upgrading to 2.2.7 did help
some except that the kernel reported that it found an 8250 instead of a
16550A for sio0. At this point I suspected a possible BIOS problem and I
had heard that there had been several updates to the 770 BIOS recently. I
had been meaning to do this at some point anyhow so I decided this would
be a good time to do it (on the principle that if ain't broke don't fix it
and if it is broke then do). The BIOS update went smoothly and I could
still boot into Win95 just fine. However, when I tried to boot into 2.2.7
the system hung during boot sometime after probing for the IDE devices
(the kernel did correctly recognize sio0 as a 16550A, so at least I
accomplished that part of my goal). After getting over my initial shock
and horror I began the calm, cool work of investigating the problem.
Sparing you the pain of a blow-by-blow account of everything I tried I
should say that I determined I could boot my system with older versions of
2.2.X and 3.0. I had lent my old copy of 2.2.5-RELEASE to a friend but I
did have a boot and fixit floppy lying around for 2.2-960801-SNAP and a
bootable CDROM of 3.0-970807-SNAP. Both of these would boot my system but
2.2.6-RELEASE, 2.2.7-RELEASE, 3.0-19980804-SNAP would all hang during
boot. Even the visual config menu did not save me from a hang. So I
installed 3.0-970807-SNAP. I could now boot my system. I then configured
a custom kernel with this system and after more investigative work found
that if I set MAXMEM = (96*1024) in the kernel config file (recall that
these older systems still required the MAXMEM parameter for >64MB to be
recognized) then my system would hang on boot, but if I set MAXMEM =
(95*1024) everything works perfectly, even the serial port. :-) I guess
that more recent kernels can somehow get the correct available memory
value on their own by some means (perhaps from the BIOS) and that this
algorithm works for some BIOSes but not others and could be fixed to work
with the new BIOS I installed on my 770, or perhaps the 770 BIOS is not
reporting the correct value when probed by FreeBSD. So, the question is:
what's going here and what should I do to help narrow it down further so
that the appropriate action can be taken.
Thanks much!
Tom

This usually indicates (at least in my experience) that you should be
using gmake and not make.

That is about as inappropriate a response as I've seen on a public support
list, ever. Whining about perceived lack of features or bugs is actually an
appropriate, if occasionally annoying, activity on the part of people who
encounter things they don't expect on a system. Saying that they look like a
little pussy is completely out-to-lunch, and does a disservice to the list, and
to the perception of FreeBSD.
FreeBSD is, IMHO, a stronger, more consistent implementation of Unix than Linux
is. It needs every positive perception it can get. Answering misstatements
about FreeBSD with insults can only drive people away. ("Yeah, FreeBSD seems
cool, but don't bother trying to get support from the mailing list---those guys
are jerks!")
(I can think of a particular database development group that could have learned
this lesson a while back. I stated a view which got me savaged in private by
one of the developers a while back, and now I'm looking into commercial
solutions just so I don't have to put up with that crap. And keep in mind, I
was a big fan of it at the beginning. No more.)
In any case, you might want to reconsider your response the next time you send
in a helpful answer.
Thanks.

With that out of the way, let's move to the difficult step: care to draft

>> What is a Serial Console?
[quippy historical diatribe deleted] (but wait till you see me ramble on...)
Ah, the old teletype terminals...
I used to collect early glass TTYs...viewpoints, VT100s, Hazeltines...
Anyway, a small explanation of serial consoles:
For the purposes of this discussion, a server is defined as "not a workstation
but a machine that either serves files, provides services such as web or ftp,
or that people log into remotely".
Since no one is actually going to be sitting at the machine, it's a waste
to have a nice graphics system on the box. And historically, most unix
machines didn't even _have_ graphics until the mid-80's, when X started
to become popular.
So a lot of machines, before and now, use a serial terminal as a console.
You've probably used a program like kermit, or Zterm or HyperTerminal
to connect with a modem to some kind of dialup service. Those programs
emulate an acutal serial terminal. Next time you go to Home Depot, Target
or probably your local doctor's office, notice what they're typing orders
and records into--just a little monitor-like thing with a keyboard plugged
right into it, and no computer in sight. that's a serial terminal.
It's got enough smarts to talk to a modem or a direct serial connection,
and that's about it. It's not an actual computer. It doesn't have a disk
drive, card slots, or anything like that. Just a serial port, a couple
chips and a couple hundred kilobytes of memory. They usually sell for
about $400 new, of $150-200 used. Because of that, a lot of people use
old 8088 or 286 PCs as terminals, and just run kermit or procomm on them.
Before I forget, here's a major point: the only time you actually need
to do anything on your server machine that actually involves being
physically at the console is to boot the machine (and most machines
autoboot with no problem, you just turn them on and they go) or if
there's a problem when the system is coming up, or the network gets
hosed.
Since you're only going to use the console rarely, having an expensive
monitor and keyboard is silly. Using a serial terminal as a console is
a better idea.
But wait, there's more...
Using a serial console, you can also be at the console of the machine
from anywhere in the world! Here's how:
You can connect the console (serial) port of your server machine to
either a terminal server or another machine with extra serial ports,
and run kermit or a similar program on the other machine. For example,
you can telnet to your "terminal server", fire up kermit, and you're
connected to the console of your server. Another application for term
servers is as modem pools. Basically a term server is a little pizza
box with some serial ports and an ethernet port, and you can get from
a serial port to the network or vice-versa. They're useful boxes.
Where I work, we have some large Sun servers, whose console ports are
connected to a terminal server. When a machine goes down, the admins
telnet to the terminal server, and specify the port they want to connect
to (it's actually more complex than that, but for the purpose of
explanation...), and fix the machine.
So the terminal server is like this:
(serial line)
termserver-port-1 <--------------------> sunserver1-console-port
termserver-port-2 <--------------------> sunserver2-console-port
termserver-port-3 <--------------------> sunserver3-console-port
termserver-port-4 <--------------------> sunserver4-console-port
termserver-port-5 <--------------------> sunserver5-console-port
This enables the admins to not have to get up and run all the way
down to the machine room everytime something goes wrong with one
of the Suns.
Serial console is a foreign concept to most PC people, I've noticed.
What sucks about PCs is that you can't get to the BIOS from the serial
port. On a Sun, SGI, HP, whatever, if it notices that there isn't a
graphics card in the machine, or the keyboard isn't connected, all
the boot messages and "BIOS" setup stuff goes to the serial port.
In case you've never seen a non-PC unix machine's setup stuff, it's
not a "fake GUI" thing like a PC, with lots of colors and pull down
text menus and stuff. It's usually something like a >> prompt where
you type things like
> setprom netaddr 192.169.234.34
> setprom diskless false
> setprom bootimg dksc0s1p0(vmunix)
So now in contrast to all that, I'd like to say that you don't even
really _need_ to set up serial console for a machine that you're
going to play with at home and don't want a monitor for. I have
three machines in my closet at home with no monitors or keyboards, and
they don't have serial consoles set up either. If one of them screws up,
I take a spare monitor over to the closet, plug it in, and fix the machine.
This typically happens less than once per 100 days per machine, so it's
not a big deal. If I were running a full-production network with lots
of users, and large amounts of money would be lost if a machine were
unavailable, I would not want to have machines with no consoles. It
all has to do with what your needs and priorities are.
Sorry that was kind of long-winded. Serial communications is one of
my favorite topics. :)

AFAIK, no such information is stored in the current package format. It's
been discussed as an option, and I'd wholeheartedly back such an
improvement.

What flavor of Linux? You can't get away with just saying 'Linux'
anymore!
XFree86 is a sticky case since PC hardware varies so widely. Window
managers generally _do_ give you a decent stock configuration file,
although it may be in /root/ or /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/<windowmanager>.
Most other system software does have a sample script you can work from --
look for [configfile].sample in the same directory as the program's
standard config file. If you think there should be a sample where there
isn't, by all means file a PR on it and provide one!

My calculations show ~28MB, although that's high since this system has
kernels for three different config files built on it. :) Try to do _that_
under most Linux flavors!

You need to build a new kernel with
options EXT2FS
In the config file.

I don't think the SDL drivers we have in the kernel support it, but do ask
SDL if they have a driver; I believe they develop FreeBSD drivers for
their hardware.

Yeah, but it doesn't relate to booting. The 1024 cylinder limit is
strictly a BIOS problem.

FreeBSD doesn't support fail-over, unless someone snuck it in while I
wasn't paying attention.
It could be done with a cron task and 'ping' though -- if 'ping' doesn't
respond run ifconfig to switch the interface configs over.

This card is not supported. If you need FDDI use the DEC DEFPA.

The Handbook hasn't been updated with the ThunderLAN driver, that's all.

I think only the PCI cards are supported, in which case they won't show up
in UserConfig but it will detect and configure tx0.

Someone reported a problem with this recently, so I'd steer clear until we

That file doesn't exist. Try re-downloading the boot floppy from
ftp.freebsd.org. If it still shows up I'll try to confirm it here, but it
may be (yet another) sysinstall bug.

Your DMA channel is set incorrectly or is in use by another device.

FIPS should work perfectly for you, as long as you defrag the Windows

It should, but your card is apparently telling the driver that it doesn't
support 10BaseT.
Try cold-booting the system and/or using any setup utility you may have
received from the manufacturer to reconfigure the media settings. It may
be forced to 100mbit.

I usually recommend setting it up in the reverse way (have the NT machine
spool to the FreeBSD box, you can set up Samba to do this).

Did you upgrade ssh on your machine? The one you had was quite old and
potentially insecure.

Is there any place that offers FreeBSD accounts for free or a
reasonable price? I just want it to use as a reference for building a
server of my own. Kinda like a learning resource type of thingy. I
think that I can learn a lot by using.
Thanks,
Jon

Problem here -- make sure you install BootEasy on the primary master disk.
It doesn't do any good to put it on the slave. DOS or something may be
noticing the improper active bit on the second disk and rearranging it.

When you su to root it takes over /root/.profile, if root's shell is sh.
The default is csh, note.
Also those escape characters may be supported only by bash.

Apache is probably expecing you to use DES and you didn't have the DES
libs installed on 2.2.7.

I am using ssh. I want to run scripts that update multiple servers at
the same time as root, and I figured it would be neat if rcp or rsh
worked as root. So I guess to rephrase my question, how do I update
multiple servers as root?

You need to install CAM support. Read the documentation in
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/cam/ and grab the boot images from

Hi. I'm in the process of converting our web server from Slackware
Linux to FreeBSD (Apache). We need a down and dirty way to transfer the
/etc/passwd file to a format the FreeBSD understands. Please resopnd
via e-mail. Thanks.

Hello, Folks,
I finally got a server configured as a DNS that works pretty good.
There were a few errors that I found after reading the examples that Kim
Neilsen sent me. Now, I have a different problem. I have added gated
from the 2.2.5 CD using the /stand/sysinstall menu. It works as long as
I use my Windoze 95 computer to donnect from network to network.
However, if I use any of the FreeBSD 2.2.5 computers to donnect across a
network, nothing happens. I can ping only certain computers yet I can
telnet to none of them. If I use traceroute to see what happens, it
gets only as far as the gateway computer before returning no info. This
happens even on the computers that I can ping. It makes no difference
if I run gated from a command line or from /etc/rc.conf. I am trying to
get from a 135.5.120.XXX class C network to a 223.147.37.xxx class C
network. Below is a copt of the /etc/gated.conf file. Thanks for your
wonderful help.
Michael

People -
I have an interesting problem with mmap(). I'm hoping someone out there
can give me a hand with it.
There is a process which mmap()s a largish (100meg) file, which is used to
store statistical information. There is a custom apache module running in
apache on the same machine, which reads the stats from the mmap()d file,
and generates a graph dynamically based on some information in that file.
The first process is not related to apache i.e. there is no fork/exec, it
is started separately.
The stats process is looping over log data. Basically it reads in a chunk
of log data (about 50k), parses it, and updates the mmap()d stats
structure. This takes place every 20 seconds or so, and works great.
The apache processes also work great. A few seconds after each time
through the loop, though, the disk goes nuts for about 10-15 seconds
(iostat 1 output is included at the end of this message.) During this
time, the machine is pretty much locked up. Worse, the apache processes
all go into a ufslk2 state, and hang for up to 15 seconds.
My assumption has been that this disk thrashing state occurs because of
the way that mmap() keeps in-core data synchronized with the disk backing.
The stats program doesn't call msync() anywhere, so I assume that this is
just the default behavior. It looks like it's postponing all writes for a
little while, then locking the file and rewriting the whole darned thing
at once.
Some thoughts and failed attempts:
1) Periodic msync() calls over portions of the mmap()d area. This solved
the problem but introduced another - the program couldn't keep up with
the log data input rate :(
I could probably hack on the frequency/size of msyncs to find a happy
medium? Maybe?
2) MAP_ANON would solve the I/O problem, clearly, but I can't figure out
how to share an mmap()d MAP_ANON area between unrelated processes.
3) system V shared memory. Too much data :(
4) break it into a few separate mmap()d files or shared memory segments.
Definitely not desirable from a simplicity standpoint, but...
5) make apache and the stats program related, and use MAP_ANON. Again,
not desirable for simplicity's sake.
All but 1 also lose us the disk backing, which is desirable (though not
critical, I suppose...)
So can anyone offer any insight into why this disk thrashing is happening,
whether my assumption(s) are correct, and what (if anything) can be done
to help improve the situation?
Thanks in advance,
David Lowe

I appreciate your fast answer about using FTP ASCII mode instead, but could you tell how do I do that, could you send all step by step. Ah! by the way just now an associate came in, and told me he did it using the FTP in ASCII and still the length of the page is huge, so it is difficult to see it in 40x80 or text editor.

Hi,
a) why use a beta when they have a release version out?
b) what exactly did you try? you can forward me a copy of your
httpd.conf file and i can help you. probably shouldn't send it to the
list as it is not a freebsd question...
Good luck,
Roman

Question,
I am trying to set up pop3 using freeBSD 2.2.6 and I am following the
instructions according to "The Complete FreeBSD" by Greg Lehey. The book
says all I need to do is uncomment the line in /etc/inetd.conf that
reads;
pop3 stream tcp nomait root /usr/local/libexec/popper popper
then add user pop and I did so according to the book.
after I do so and reboot, I get the following messages.
Aug 19 16:29:46: zeus inetd[221]: cannot execute
/usr/local/libexec/popper: no such file or directory
I do a ls in /usr/local/libexec and there is no popper. how do I install
popper correctly? or what did I do wrong?
Thanks,
David Turner

This morning I came into the office to find that one of the FreeBSD
boxes had this line scrolling across its screen:
swap_pager: indefinite wait buffer: device 131073, blkno: 688, size: 4096
I restarted it, and it now gets to the following point:
Automatic reboot in progress...
/dev/rwd0s1a: CLEAN FLAG NOT SET IN SUPERBLOCK (FIXED)
/dev/rwd0s1a: 23066 files, 215974 used, 240409 free (38738 frags, 25209
blocks, 8.5% fragmentation)
wd0: interrupt timeout:
wd0: status 58<rdy,seekdone,drq> error 0
wd0: interrupt timeout:
wd0: status 58<rdy,seekdone,drq> error 1<no_dam>
and then the system hangs, with the hard disk making seek noises over and
over. Is this an indication of a hard drive failure?

Hi,
2.2.6-R
GA 686BX Motherbrd
PII 266 MHZ
Prim Master: DOS/W95 w/ BootEasy
Prim. Slave: FreeBSD w/ BootEasy
Today I found that booteasy don't allow me to boot my FreeBSD disk. I
got:
F1 - DOS
F5 - FreeBSD
I press F5; result:
F1 - FreeBSD
F5 - DOS
I press F1; result (?!?!)
F1 - FreeBSD
F5 - DOS
I mean, it doesn't boot, it just redisplays the last result.
BTW, DOS/W95 is OK.
Help!

Unlikely. Only contributors/developers to FreeBSD get one.

The original text by djv@bedford.net looked good enough, but a change
in the support page something along the lines of:
"Mailing lists are the primary support channel ....
When in doubt about what list to post a question to, post to
_freebsd-question@freebsd.org_, and one of the many volunteer
helpers on the mailing list will get back to you."
Cheers.

I must be under the mistaken impression that 15-20 year old
out-dated technology must still be viable and cost effective! Is this
true, or are most these people just not upgrading their old networks?

does anybody have any ready script to use to dial into Munich´s (Germany)
PPP-plant by ISDN? I got a script for Win95 from
ftp://ftp.zyxel.co.at/public/software/compuserve, but I don´t know any means to

Any help is more than appreciated,

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG

Hello,
there is a small problem with asynchronous port setup.
Our FreeBSD 2.1.2 was reinstalled from 486DX/33 to Pentium class
machine.
There is 28.8K modem attached to the box, however I can not make more
then 960bypes/sec out of it using UUCP (and that's the only usage of
the modem). UUCP setup came from the previous box, where we had up to
3K/sec transfer rates and 'port' speed range for uucp is
14400..57600. So I tried to remember, what was done to the system to
achive high speed, but failed. So I tried
stty -f /dev/modem crtscts
and that did seem to make difference.
Then I tried
stty -f /dev/modem speed 57600
but that fails for speeds above 9600.
/dev/modem is link to /dev/cuaa1
What should be done to the device to get normal speed out of it?
Please reply to e-mail address. Thanks!
Thank you in advance. Dima.

How is your NT-printing set up ?
For BSD-style-lpd use the "rm"-capability in /etc/printcap
to point your FBSD-box to your NT-machine.
Otherwise maybe Samba will help you.

Two questions:
I'm running TeraTerm Pro with both the SSH and SSL extensions. Real nice
pieces of work, but I've tripped on a couple of annoyances.
Annoyance the First: If I've got a telnet session running and I hit ^C, the
terminal window locks up. Tight. PS indicates that the shell is
hunky-dory, but nothin's happening on the telnet window. Any ideas?
Annoyance the Second: Still haven't been able to get an ssh window running.
Not on any of the FreeBSD boxen I have access to. Using Van Dyke's
SecureTerm I can get and ssh session no problem-o. I haven't dug in too far
on this - but a first-look at the debug looks something like this:
\\ Start sshd in debug mode:
gw/root:~# sshd -d
debug: sshd version 1.2.26 [i386-unknown-freebsd2.2.7]
debug: Initializing random number generator; seed file
/usr/local/etc/ssh_random
_seed
log: Server listening on port 22.
log: Generating 768 bit RSA key.
Generating p: ....++ (distance 34)
Generating q: .........................++ (distance 500)
Computing the keys...
Key generation complete.
log: RSA key generation complete.
\\ Now start a ssh connection:
debug: Server will not fork when running in debugging mode.
log: Connection from x.y.z.231 port 663
debug: Client protocol version 1.5; client software version TTSSH-1.2
debug: Sent 768 bit public key and 1024 bit host key.
debug: Encryption type: idea
debug: Received session key; encryption turned on.

debug: Attempting authentication for simss.
log: Password authentication for simss accepted.
debug: Allocating pty.
debug: Forking shell.
debug: Entering interactive session.
debug: Setting controlling tty using TIOCSCTTY.
and that's all she wrote. The TeraTerm window is blank, and nothing is
going on!?!
Anyone seen either of these? HELP?
TIA!

"Yes" to all.
First of all install FreeBSD. Read the instructions on
http://www.freebsd.org/
Then install apache. If problems arise, ask again on this
list.

Hello,
I'm attempting to install a pretty old seagate 1-gig drive on my
2.2.7-stable machine with an Adaptec 1540 ISA-based controller.
When booting, it seems to detect it just fine:
aha0 at 0x330-0x333 irq 11 drq 5 on isa
aha0 waiting for scsi devices to settle
(aha0:0:0): "TANDEM 4240-1 6420" type 0 fixed SCSI 1
sd0(aha0:0:0): Direct-Access 999MB (2038001 514 byte sectors)
but when something actually tries to access it (fdisk, for example), I get
the error:
sd0: Can't deal with 514 bytes logical blocks
Debugger("sd") called.
and then that program dies.
I'm fairly green with a lot of scsi issues, so I'm basically stuck. Can
anyone help me out? is this disk even usable?
Any help would be very appreciated ... or even a "throw the damn thing
out, Irving",

I wish I could go into lots of detail here, but I can't.
The difference between a linux password file and a freebsd one is that
all the same information is there, but one has more fields than the
other does.
I've converted password files between various unices using sed and awk
scripts. Here's the quickest, vaguest sed/awk lesson you'll ever get:
orpheus:vi3g/BUV6Y05.:500:100:Jeffrey Dunitz:/home/orpheus:/bin/bash
orpheus:mz/.Rcl79oNnS:500:100::0:0:Jeffrey Dunitz:/home/orpheus:/bin/bash
So there's two example password entries, one from a standard unix password
file and one from a FreeBSD master.passwd. Note that freebsd has some
extra :0:0: stuff.
Also notice that the fields are separated by : characters.
Also note bigtime that those encrypted passwords are made up and just look
like actual passwords. I'm not stupid enough to mail out my actual password
file entries so that you all can try to crack them. :)
Anyway...
You can use awk to spit out fields and arbitrary data:
cat /etc/passwd | awk -F: '{print $1":"$2}'
just prints the first two fields with the colon. You have to quote the
colon like that, or it won't work right.
You can then figure out how to add in the extra ":0:0" stuff on your own.
Should be easy.
Note that there are some religious fanatics who would insist that the only
way to do this right is to use Perl. Other crazies will tell you that you
must use sed. I know how to do it with awk, and it took me about 45 seconds
to actually figure out how to do it. It would take me another 45 to actually
generate a working password file with the extra stuff in there. I don't know
if I could figure out how to make perl do that same thing. I'm not a perl
god. Your mileage may vary.

Dear Friend,
Thank you, I have resolved my problem with shell. It seems that FreeBSD is
using Password database as opposed to linux's shadow password.
I was trying to compile smaller and customized kernel for my system. I
manage to read the handbook and the docs. I can compile but i have several
questions to ask :
1) Is there no config script like in linux that ask you this or that option
rather than you have to comment or add lines by yourself ?
2) Where can i find complete kernel configuration ? Handbook said it is too
broad
3) I compiled APM but when i tried to execute APM it said can't open
/dev/apm. Why ?
FYI,I did do this in /dev -> sh MAKEDEV all ( apm was already there but
not accessible )
Thank you
Regards,
Leonard Ong

For this you want to use xntpd. Check out
http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~ntp/ for more info on the theory and
practice, including addresses of public time servers. The xntpd client
included in the freebsd distribution is all you need to get started. :)
Good luck,

I have an Old machine (486/33, single 500MB IDE drive) that has been
running FreeBSD for a Long Time (at least 4 or 5 years).
I'm trying to update the OS.
Unfortunately, neither the 2.2.6 or 2.2.7 kernels will boot on this system.
I get:
panic: cannot mount root
when I boot the kernel.
I've run a MAKEDEV on wd0 to make sure the right /dev/entries are there.
/etc/fstab is:
/dev/wd0a / ufs rw 1 1
/dev/wd0s1 /dos msdos rw,noauto 1 1
/dev/wd0g /usr ufs ro 1 1
/dev/wd0f /var ufs rw 1 1
/dev/wd0b none swap sw 0 0
proc /proc procfs rw 0 0
FWIW, /dev now has:
/dev/rwd0 /dev/rwd0s1 /dev/rwd0s2 /dev/wd0f /dev/wd0s1f
/dev/rwd0a /dev/rwd0s1a /dev/rwd0s3 /dev/wd0g /dev/wd0s1g
/dev/rwd0b /dev/rwd0s1b /dev/rwd0s4 /dev/wd0h /dev/wd0s1h
/dev/rwd0c /dev/rwd0s1c /dev/wd0 /dev/wd0s1 /dev/wd0s2
/dev/rwd0d /dev/rwd0s1d /dev/wd0a /dev/wd0s1a /dev/wd0s3
/dev/rwd0e /dev/rwd0s1e /dev/wd0b /dev/wd0s1b /dev/wd0s4
/dev/rwd0f /dev/rwd0s1f /dev/wd0c /dev/wd0s1c
/dev/rwd0g /dev/rwd0s1g /dev/wd0d /dev/wd0s1d
/dev/rwd0h /dev/rwd0s1h /dev/wd0e /dev/wd0s1e
What do I need to do to get this system to boot with a recent kernel?

First of all, according to JKH - "Don't *whack* use *whack* popper", or
something along those lines.
Security hole in it since 2.2.6, so, if you must, install the port in
/usr/ports/mail/popper.
This is also you problem. Your 2.2.6 install puts popper in /usr/libexec.
You _really_ should use the port, and that will put popper in
/usr/local/libexec. Use cvsup (explained in the book, I imagine) to update
your ports collection, and then go into /usr/ports/mail/popper and type "make
install".
> after I do so and reboot, I get the following messages.
You _really_ don't need to reboot. Type "killall -HUP inetd" to apply
changes to /etc/inetd.conf.

I've been having this problem for over a year now and hopefully someone can
help.
I run ppp -auto -alias internet from /etc/rc.local.
It dials out, connects and works fine. The problem is it never wants to
hang up!
Even after it times out, it just redials right away, even if there's
nothing else turned on on the network.
The only thing this computer runs all the time is sendmail, sshd, apache,
and dhcpd.
Could any of these be causing it to want to be online? I know sendmail
isn't trying to send anything because another machine is the default SMTP
server.
Any suggestions?

>> i just moved to 2.2.7-R, and am now having troubles
>> with PPP routes. i run ppp -auto -alias isp
>> ppp seems to maintain the isp connection ok.
my current config includes routed=NO,
gateway=YES, named=YES, and only a
loopback route. i've use this basic
setup for years now.
my ppp config is basic
isp:
blah-blah-blah
delete 0
add 0 0 HISADDR
ppp-direct1:
allow user *
set timeout 0
set ifaddr BSD-ADDR W31-ADDR 0xffffffff
and ppp linkup
MYADDR:
delete 0
add 0 0 HISADDR
i can use the internet from a dialup shell ok
(at least 10 minutes or so) but when i switch
to a W31 Trumpet dialer and dial up, the connection
"hangs" after the first few web pages.
Trumpet normally would show:
BSD-ADDR -> W31-ADDR
W31-ADDR -> BSD-ADDR
etc.
but with 2.2.7 ppp, i get
BSD-ADDR -> W31-ADDR
W31-ADDR -> BSD-ADDR
then i see
BSD-ADDR -> NS1-ADDR
BSD-ADDR -> NS2-ADDR
BSD-ADDR -> NS1-ADDR
BSD-ADDR -> NS2-ADDR
then i see
BSD-ADDR -> OTHER-ADDR
BSD-ADDR -> OTHER-ADDR
BSD-ADDR -> OTHER-ADDR
BSD-ADDR -> OTHER-ADDR
and on and on ...
and the W31 client no longer functions
on the internet thru the BSD gateway.
i login to the BSD shell, and
see that the default route has been deleted.
i add the default route (add 0 0 HISADDR), and all internet functions
from the shell work ok, but then i dial up
with the W31 client, and the situation repeats itself.

OK, so I installed 2.2.6 a while ago and am just starting to play with it
again. What is the command to mount the second partition on my primary hard
drive to /dos? First partition is NTFS, second is FAT, subsequent is
FreeBSD.
Second, how do I get it to automatically mount every time I log in? Does it
go in my .cshrc file?
mount_msdos /dev/???? /dos
or
mount -t msdos /dev/???? /dos
Thanks,
David

As the Year 2000 compliance manager of my organisation in Australia, I wish to establish the status of FreeBSD's year 2000 compliance as an operating system. We are using FreeBSD 2.1 Stable as an internet server.
Can you advise me on this?

other than FreeBSD itself, i believe all you need is
TCL 8.0 (its in the packages collection at
ftp.freebsd.org) and eggdrop itself (www.eggdrop.net)
have fun

Hi,
I'm attempting to run some Linux binaries under 2.2.6-RELEASE, and one
particular problem I'm encountering is:
ELF interpreter /compat/linux/lib/ld-linux.so.1 not found
Abort
I guess that it's searching for the std Linux shared library which I
don't have. Anyone know where I can get this? URL preferably?

Could you install FreeBSD with XWindows easily in a 500 meg partition?
Also, what software can you use to create a partition without losing
everything on your disk?

A great way to debug things like this is to run tcpdump on your tunnel
device.
tcpdump -n -i tun0
Wait for the line to drop and come back up. Then take a look at the
timestamps from tcpdump and the ppp logfile to determine which packet
triggered the dialout. Once you find the offender, filter it with a
dial filter. I have my ppp set up this way:
# Don't reset keep alive timer on ICMP, DNS, NTP, or RC5 packets
set filter alive 0 deny icmp
set filter alive 1 deny udp src eq 53
set filter alive 2 deny udp dst eq 53
set filter alive 3 deny udp src eq 123
set filter alive 4 deny udp dst eq 123
set filter alive 5 deny tcp dst eq 2064
set filter alive 6 permit 0/0 0/0
# Don't let ICMP or NTP packets cause us to dial
set filter dial 0 deny icmp
set filter dial 1 deny udp src eq 123
set filter dial 2 deny udp dst eq 123
set filter dial 3 permit 0/0 0/0
Sendmail is fond of doing DNS lookups (for MX lookups), so you might
want to add DNS packets to your dial filter.

hmmm, ok but I don't have too much spare space... Isn't there any 'common'

Not sure on this one. The XWindows installation on my system takes up 76
megs (not couting KDE - a cool window manager). It can probably be done,
but I think you might be tight on space for extra programs like netscape,
etc.
Anyone know for sure?

fips will take an existsing partition and split it into 2. fips can be
found at ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/tools/dist/fips11.zip
Be sure to read the documentation that comes with it. It contains
important information like the fact you have to defragment your disk
before you use it.

Hi,
To make it short, I can't login to root on my system. Actually, I can,
but I'm immediately kicked back to the login prompt following the message:
"this account is currently unavailable". I can log in under admin, but
don't seem to have the umph thereby to fix the problem not allowing my to
login as root.
I've been given various procedures to follow that are supposed to be the
remedy: including things that begin with a "-s" at the boot prompt, and
commands that include "chfn root", etc. Everything I've been told so far
has been just cryptic/incomplete enough that I end up getting nowhere.
I spent 6 years as a SCO Unix installer/user/programmer so, I'm not
totally without clues. I've just never been without access to root.
I can be at the machine whilst following any advise anyone might be able
to share is given. If you need to know more about the whole situation I
can give you what I have.
We currently have our webpage up on this machine and would like to be able
to proceed from where we are. Right now we're up, but frozen.
Assistance is much needed and appreciated.

(Assuming IDE)
mount -t msdos /dev/wd0s2 /dos should do it for you.

Well, if you are logging in as root you could do that, but there
is a better approach. To have the dos parition mounted on boot add the
following line to /etc/fstab
/dev/wd0s2 /dos msdos rw 0 0

That's way more than plenty. You can have a running system with
sources for some of it in less than 200 megs. A half gig partition leaves
you room for more sources or a very large home directory.
If you wanted to go extra-lean, you can fit the base system with a minimal
install of X (the server, the basic programs like xterm, xedit, xclock,
xclipboard, etc) in about 100 megs or maybe less than that. I've done
a minimal install of FreeBSD with no X, which was around 45-50 megs,
and a minimal install of Linux with X, compilers, and kernel sources,
which was about 90 megs. I'd have to think that FreeBSD would be similar.

some people have used FIPS to do this. it's thought to be safe, but since
changing partitions is always dicey business, be sure to back up--there is
a small chance that something weird could happen. Read the FIPS documentation
before proceeding. I've never used it, so I really don't know anything about
it other than it exists, people use it, and I've never heard anyone complain
that it trashed their disk.

I have Netscape 3.something installed because communicator is too big
and slow and I hate it--it's bad enough on my Indy, unusable on my
486DX/25. Netscape 3 is about 5 megs installed, and
communicator was certainly less than 10. I think it was 7 or 8, maybe.

Subject: boot sector - Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG

Hi
I'm trying very hard to write a boot sector, and I have some doubts
which I really need your kind help. I intend to use Intel platform.
This is what I know :
When the system is reset or booted-up,
Loads Sector 1, Track 0, Head 0 of the boot drive( A or C ) to absolute
address 07C00h-07DFFh.
Checks the word at absolute address 07DFEh for AA55h. This is the boot
signature and is used by the BIOS to ensure that the sector contains a
valid bootsector. If this signature isn't present, the BIOS will display
an error message.
Loads DL with:
00h if the boot sector was loaded from floppy disk,
80h if the boot sector was loaded from hard disk.
This way, the bootsector knows which drive it was booted from.
Jumps to 0000:7C00h, which is the start of the bootsector
(my questions are :)
The boot sector then has to locate and load the kernel from the harddisk
using BIOS interrupt (am I correct?) and transfer control to the kernal
by using a JMP(am I right?)
is the source for freebsd's boot sector in /usr/src/sys/i386/boot? I can
find directories like netboot, rawboot, dosboot, biosboot and kzipboot,
can anyone tell me what each of these directories do? I guess for my
case I should look into biosboot since I'm using BIOS to load my kernel
(if I ever manage to write one!!), am I right?
I hope I'mnot asking for too much, and I apologize if that is the case.
I am trying to write a small little kernel just for interest, but my
knowledge is very limited so I really appreciate if anyone can help me
out by any means, if possible please give me any related links.
Thanks so much in advance.

The message is happening because someone has changed the root shell to
'nologin'. If you have access to a FreeBSD system, look at
'man 8 nologin'.
What happens when you boot into single user mode?
Reboot the machine. At the boot prompt, enter -s. This should put
you into a mode that allows you to change the root shell. This is a
sort of "root maintenance" mode. You will have to mount the root file
system, 'mount -a' should work.
'/usr/sbin/vipw' should allow you to change the root shell. Change
the last field in the "root" line to be '/bin/csh'. Then, exit vipw
(:x). After you get back to the prompt, 'exit' should allow the
machine to continue into the multi-user mode.

Hello!
As far as I know, x11 subtree in ports in being reorganized. I cvsup
ports regularry, and for some time lots of ports are removed from x11, but
NOTHING appears at x11-*.
I use cvsup-mirror at my server, and in cvs repository everything is OK.
Attempt to cvsup or cvs ports tree doesn't result in x11-* creation :-(
Alex.

Hello, I have a HP DeskJet 722C that I believe I have configured
correctly, but won't seem to print.
I have done a ./MAKEDEV lpt0
Here is a copy of my /etc/printcap:

My printer uses the parallel port
When I do a lptest >> /dev/lpt0, there is no apparent printer activity.
I have looked at the logs, but nothing shows up. Thank you for you
time.

Subject: sound driver trouble
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG

Hi,
I'm using FreeBSD 2.2.7, however, these days I have trouble in sound
driver. Some applications (executor-demo, rvplayer5.0) cannot open audio
device. I have written the sound driver section in the kernel config file
and execute MAKEDEV snd0 to make sound devices (mixer, sequencer, dsp0,
audio0, dsp, dspW, dspW0, etc.). What is interesting is that xgalaga
(an X windows game) can use audio although it says "The sound could not be
opened." So I need some help. Any suggestion would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
-Tetsuji Rai
PS I include sound section of my kernel config file (I changed some
defaults). And I use Sound Blaster 16 MultiCD
----------
controller snd0
device sb0 at isa? port 0x240 irq 7 conflicts drq 0 vector sbintr
device sbxvi0 at isa? drq 5
device sbmidi0 at isa? port 0x300
device opl0 at isa? port 0x388 conflicts
----------
and here is sound section of dmesg
==========
sb0 at 0x240 irq 7 drq 0 on isa
sb0: <SoundBlaster 16 4.12>
sbxvi0 at 0x0 drq 5 on isa

sbmidi0 at 0x300 on isa
<SoundBlaster MPU-401>
opl0 at 0x388 on isa

Hi guys.
I recently upgraded to a new motherboard / cpu / memory / video card
and now that I am trying to run freebsd, I am getting rather random page
faults out of the blue.
Heres the run down:
EPOX mainboard, socket 7 with AGP (100 Mhz bus)
64 Megs of SDRAM, a single DIMM (100 Mhz)
AMD k6-2 / 300 (100 Mhz Bus)
Ultra DMA IDE drive, 6.4 gigs...
A Diamond Viper 330 AGP. (note, not doing any graphics here. page faults
are occuring in text mode)
Basically this started up with FreeBSD 2.2.6... everything seemed fine at
first, everything went as planned. I decided to cvsup to the 2.2.7 release,
I downloaded the cvsup binary from the ports and insatlled it.
I started the cvsup and it crapped out.
I tried several other things, and it crapped out randomly there too...
well, I had done quite a bit in the way of disk partitioning lately so I
thought maybe somehow I had screwed my 2.2.6 setup.
I thought what the heck and grabbed my older 2.2.1 CD since thats what I
had at home. I booted off the cdrom to do an install and this went well.
I went through the partitioning information, set up booteasy, setup the
mount points and such, selected the installation method,
and then WHAM. page faulted again.
So, while I realize the above config is fairly new and all, I wanted to
see if you guys have had any problems with the above hardware. Heck,
at this point I'm not trying to do anything special, and I figured what
the heck, I would give it a try.
Thanks for your help and insight.

>From time to time I like to free up some disk space by running make clean in

This is pretty tedious. Is there any way to have it skip ports that fail so
that the entire process doesn't fail?

I had a problem with my machine, used for similar purposes. There are NO
interrupt or address conflicts, yet ppp locked up on COM1. "term" would
lock out so well I'd have to reboot to free up the tun0 device. It took me
a while to try the modem on COM2, where it worked perfectly.

This isn't really a -current question, however, the new x11 stuff is in
the various collections, such as x11-wm, x11-toolkits, etc, etc.

Be conservative in the selection of software, and you should be OK. The
following partitions should work just fine:
/ 30M
swap 16M
/usr the rest of disk space
Hope that helps.

Dear Roland, Kevin & Doug,
Thanks all of you.
It works.
As resume, to make the RFC 1323 work,
(1) I changed 'tcp_extensions=YES' in rc.conf
(2) I also made the socket buffer sizes bigger;
sysctl -w kern.maxsockbuf=1000000
sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.sendspace=500000
sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.recvspace=500000
Then it shows effectively wscale option in SYN packet.
And to make TCPDUMP work,
(1) I added in kernel config file,
pseduo-device bpfilter 4
(2) then rebuilt the kernel.
It works perfectly.
My FreeBSD is 2.2.6, so it proves the above system variables
exist.
Furthermore, if anyone had already tried to install "dummynet"
package, I'd like to listen to your opinion before I enter into
that.
Thanks all, and thanks in advance. ;)

This is odd. I can run make clean in the current /usr/ports without
a problem. Maybe your /usr/ports is a bit broken? Have you
cvsup'ed ports-all recently?

It depends.
First of all Mr. Griepentrog said in his post, he was using FreeBSD
for 3 years and was very satisfied with it.
Then in the same paragraph he tells us about his recent disappointment
with FreeBSD. Why ? Because he encounters frequent FP-exceptions.
Then he states to be a mathematician. Every mathematician i know of
has at least heard of machine-precision and of numerical-analysis
and has at least once written a progrma in some language to compute
the machine-precision of FP-numbers.
Therefor i thought to myself, this man should at least be able to
give "apropos float" and get "... fpsetprec(3), fpgetprec(3),
fpgetmask(3), ...". Instead he claimed "... Linux does better ..."
Finally you are right. My post was somewhat aggressive and my fault
was to assume the "instead" in the sentence above.
(Maybe i've heard far to much "Linux does this better ... Linux
does that better ..."-discussions in the past).
So please Mr Griepentrog, take my apologize. My previous email
to you was rude and i try to do better next time.
Also apologize to the questions-list for pestering the list
with my personal bad feelings.

I have a computer with an AMD K6-2 300mhz processor, a Epox 100mhz
motherboard, a Soundblaster 16 soundcard, a Fujitsu UDMA harddrive, a 10x
IDE
cd-rom drive and Win98. My problem is that when I play a music CD it uses a
lot more CPU power than it should. Every second it jumps from 3% to 70-80%.
This makes other software stop and ít is impossible to do anything while
using the CD-player. I have tried several different CD-players and software
including Win98s CDplayer. I have tested this on Intel based computers with
Win98 and Win95 and none of them had this problem. I've also tested it with
the soundcard disabled. I would like to know if you have any suggestions
other than changing my processor and motherboard to Intel.

Well, perhaps you are right. But it was about Master Disk active partition -
the one wich flag was cleared to 0, not the slave.
Well, Let me clear what I did (some history needed):
After encountering the "active partition flag cleared" problem.... i.e.
loop:
(re)boot
booteasy menu
press F5->boot FBSD->Boot: prompt -> successfull FreeBSD boot
reboot (# reboot)
active partition cleared "somehow"
BIOS msg "Not Found Any Active Partition - insert system disk"
Ctl-Alt-Del -> boot clean DOS from floppy
fdisk "set Master Disk Primary DOS partition 'active'"
goto loop
... I reboot in clean DOS from floppy and used a "fdisk /mbr". Now my computer
'forgot' (no booteasy) abt the second (slave) disk and happily boot the W95.
No problema. Active partition problem disappeared. Realy.
Then....I bootinst the boot.bin from 2.2.2-R CDROM on the Prim. Master &&
Slave!!! disks (the original situation was with booteasy installed on the
MASTER ONLY)
At this moment:
(re)boot
booteasy menu
Press F5 - FreeBSD -> go to booteasy menu from Slave Disk
label:
Press F1- FreeBSD - excpecting "Boot:" promt
NO Boot: prompt, instead booteasy menu just redisplayed
if Press F5 - DOS -> back to Master Disk booteasy menu
booteasy menu from Master Disk
if press F1 -DOS -> successfull W95 boot
if Press F5-FreeBSD -> goto
BTW, once you reched the "label:" above (i.e. just TRY to boot freebsd), the
"active partition cleared" problem is there again at the next reboot. :-(
Funny...

Hi Doug,
I've checked my boot floppy image and it seems to exactly match
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.2.7-RELEASE/floppies/boot.flp. I even
had a dig around in the source for sysinstall (dist.c), but couldn't make
much sense of it. I gathered that it only needs a .inf files for
distributions that come as chunks, like bin.aa bin.ab ... etc. All of the
XF86322 files are just plain .tgz files, so they shouldn't need a .inf file.
Is this right?
Regards,
Jeff

Some questions:
1- How can I read Joliet CD on FreeBSD?
2- How can I read directly (With extended names) RockRige CD on Win95
(Some equivalent of HFS utils ?)
(Currently I read the directory, apply some sort of sed to
TRANS.TBL, run the produced .bat, and there are the correct file names)
3- Is it OK to read as a "file" the TRANS.TBL in FreeBSD ? (I would
suppose it is not a "file", just a part
of the RockRidge extension to support long File names, in this case
it should not appear ???, or as an option ?)
4- Do you know of a tool to make RockRidge extension CD under Win95? (Or
do I just have to make the TRANS.TBL for each
directory and that's it ?)

Sure, just use ``make -k clean''.

I have a script that every day does a ipfw list > /home/william/ipfwlist to
save my firewall settings in case I need to reboot. Now what I would like to do
is when I boot have those rules loaded automatically.
This is the settings in use in my rc.firewall file:
if [ "${firewall_type}" = "open" -o "${firewall_type}" = "OPEN" ]; then
$fwcmd add 65000 pass all from any to any
$fwcmd add 63000 deny log icmp from any to 205.147.76.99 icmptype 8
$fwcmd add 62099 allow icmp from 205.147.76.99 to 205.147.76.99 icmmptype 8
Would it be possible to replace these with something along the lines of
ipfw /home/william/ipfwlist .
or can you suggest a better way?

I have a computer with an AMD K6-2 300mhz processor, a Epox 100mhz
motherboard, a Soundblaster 16 soundcard, a Fujitsu UDMA harddrive, a 10x
IDE
cd-rom drive and Win98. My problem is that when I play a music CD it uses a
lot more CPU power than it should. Every second it jumps from 3% to 70-80%.
This makes other software stop and ít is impossible to do anything while
using the CD-player. I have tried several different CD-players and software
including Win98s CDplayer. I have tested this on Intel based computers with
Win98 and Win95 and none of them had this problem. I've also tested it with
the soundcard disabled. I would like to know if you have any suggestions
other than changing my processor and motherboard to Intel.

Ryan,
Walnut Creek (www.cdrom.com) sells the Complete FreeBSD Manual.
Since FreeBSD is UNIX, any UNIX book is applicable to FreeBSD. The books
for BSD relate to FreeBSD more directly than SVR4 books. O'Reilly and
Associates is one of the best publishers of UNIX books and manuals. I
would recommend any of their UNIX books. The "Red" System Administration
book (Seabass, et al) is also highly respected in the UNIX community.
Also, the "man" pages are available!
With these choices you have literally hundreds of books directly applicable
to FreeBSD. If you have lots of free time, your choices are practically
endless.
Have fun reading!

Are you _sure_ you have ports-all in your supfile, as opposed to a list of
the individual collections? If the later is the case, you just need to
add in the new x11-* collections to the list.

Does anybody have made the support for UltraDMA 33 available in 2.2.7 ?
(I will not switch to 3.0 for quite some time...)
Or, anybody with some recipe to add this support to the 2.2 kernel ? (I
have the 3.0 current source tree)
Patches ?

It should be if you are careful about what you load up.
I would probably only load bin, manpages, and X, with maybe doc.
Use a 32M root, a 32M swap, 16M for var, and the rest for usr.
Once you see how the machine runs and what space you have left,
then load up extras to suit. Run the machine command line, except
for when you need to run X, and it should probably be OK for a
webscraper machine. If you want to run compiles, opt for another
disk to put the user home files on. Disks 500M and smaller are
pretty common in surplus for almost nothing. Even 100M more for
the user home file system is going to give you a fair amount of
play space.
Good Luck....

Considering the incredible waste of disk ressources by trees like
ports/, and other mainly dormant source directories,
is there any way to use the virtual filesystem feature, with a .zip file
instead of an uncompressed one, to just mount
it when needed (mount_zip ports.zip /ports) and enjoy the very fast
direct access to any file or directory ?
It is done (in applications in some, may be at kernel level in others)
with big success in other OS'es.
If I am not mistaken, the zip uncompress is already in the kernel, right
?

At present we are now running ipfw on a BSD box to do routing, with a divert
rule to ipltd which enables us to bandwidth restrict the subnets.
We are considering using adress translation as we'd like to conserve IP
space. Our understanding is that we will need another divert rule
to natd. The man ipfw states ' If a packet matches more than one divert
and/or tee rule, all but the last are ignored.'
Now we are concerned that this might mean only one divert is possible -
or does it mean diverts to a specific port are only allowed once (loop
avoidance)?
Or if we natd first, will the 'altered' IP allow us to have another divert
rule as it's a 'different' IP passing through the ipfw rules?
Anyone have any thoughts/information on this subject?

Matt

I guess that to move it, other than the physical move, I need to change the
ppp.conf to reference /dev/cuaa1? If that is all that it takes, I have
done that also. Here are some other things that I have tried....
Reverted back to 2.2.2 (Which was the last working version that I was
running)
Tried various IRQ and memory combinations (on the network card only)
Changed network cards
Changed machines!!!!!!
I think I'm going to loose my mind....

I had a problem with my machine, used for similar purposes. There are NO
interrupt or address conflicts, yet ppp locked up on COM1. "term" would
lock out so well I'd have to reboot to free up the tun0 device. It took me
a while to try the modem on COM2, where it worked perfectly.

Have you tried downloaading and compiling the latest version of ppp from
http://www.freebsd.org/~brian? I am currently running it, and it works
perfectly.

Please, answer where to get "synchronous" ppp program ?
#man sppp
or
#sppp
is absent. Preferrably is "sppp" for FreeBSD 2.2.7 or 2.2.5.
/stand/ppp or /usr/sbin/ppp has no options for "synchronous" ppp.
I can't achieve ppp-link with my ISP's Cisco router by "asynchronous" ppp.
Please, help.

For installation you just need to know the IP-address of an
FTP-server mirroring FreeBSD.
hostname is/should be the name of your machine and it is
up to you to choose one. The domain is the name of the
IP-network your host belongs to. The domain is generally
registered with the InterNIC.
It would be good to read some introductory text about
IP-networking and Unix. Maybe Greg Lehey's FreeBSD-intro.

There is more than this. There is an essential difference
between DES-encryption and MD5-encryption of passwords. Both
is possible with FreeBSD. I don't know about Linux.
So far there is no easy way to convert between DES- and
MD5-encryption.
BTW, Jeffrey, what version of FreeBSD are you running ?

I have a 486 DX 100 Mhz and 32 Mb of RAM with a caviar 1.2 Gb running
on freebsd 2.2.5. I always have it on at home, but my brother entered
the room I have the machine in and shut the power off, no questions
asked. Of course he thought I mistakenly left it on, but the thing is
that when I came home the machine didn't stop from reboting every 15
seconds and it displayed a message like the following:
/ not properly dismount
init not found
panic: init not found
...rebooting in 15 minutes or press a key
Now I tried to use /stand/sysinstall to re-make the partitions ( when I
entered the label options, all my original partitions had the right hd
space but didn't have the mounting name, instead there was an *
character) without any success, and furthermore, after that I cannot get
the boot manager to give me the choice of starting up the freebsd
booting, and now it only boots from my DOS partition.
Please can anyone give me a hand on this?
Thank you before hand.
Simon.

Ok, got sort of an interesting problem... I have set up an anonymous ftp
site on a local machine. I can ftp in, but with unix ftp and ws ftp I
cannot see the files or directories, I can however, download files and
change directories (I am not getting a listing)
what is really funny is that dos ftp works 100% fine, it displays the
files like it should.
I have tried changing the access on the ftp home directory, and files
(could not see a 0777 file in the home dir with 0777) I am at a total
loss, any help would be greatly appreciated.

that's true; I thought of that right after I sent that mail.
yesterday or a few days ago, someone asked how to set up a FreeBSD machine
so that it would recognize DES passwords, but when the user changed it,
it would be encrypted with MD5. Look back a few days and you should find
the thread I'm talking about.

There appears to be a bug in Pico included with Pine 4.01 port for FreeBSD.
After a change, it puts UUUUUU at the top of the file and you have to
remodify the file to remove these.
Is there a patch and can I get instructions on getting/applying it.
Thanks
Dave

# Define the firewall type in /etc/rc.conf. Valid values are:
# open - will allow anyone in
# client - will try to protect just this machine
# simple - will try to protect a whole network
# closed - totally disables IP services except via lo0 interface
# UNKNOWN - disables the loading of firewall rules.
# filename - will load the rules in the given filename (full path required)
So why don't you use the filename-method ?
Just specify the path to the firewall-rule-file in /etc/rc.conf
(This is on my 2.2.6-box)

Hi everyone,
I need to add a tape backup drive to my 2.2.7 box. Any recommendations
on one that is
a) definitely compatible
b) very reliable
c) relatively fast
?
Thanks as always,
Roman

Hi.
I've reinstalled my fbsd 2.2.6 system from scratch now, and tried again to install Xwindows.
Here is the error I get when I try to start X using 'startx':
XFree86 Version 3.3.2 / X Window System

than the above date, look for a newer version before reporting
problems. (see http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ)

Well, I have an EOPX motherboard like yours, 64 Megs SDRAM, and AMD K6-2
300 Mhz (100 bus) running FreeBSD without a problem. Are you sure that
your memory supports 100 Mhz? It should be 8 ns speed, not all SDRAM is.
I'd try running it at a 66 Mhz bus speed for awhile and see if the problem
goes away. If it does, it's your memory.

well,
the setup and diag software let's me run a network test through 10Mbps hub
from one machine to the other (boot to dos, run diag, network test, one is
slave, the other is master).
The setup doesn't give an option for media select though :(
I am no c guru, but i looked trough definition files for dec network cards
and it seemed to me that my card is little bit too new.
it has a lot of options for 21142 chip, but mine is 21143. I tried to
duplicate some of them, and recompile the kernel, but it didn't see any
changes. If any brave soul who knows c wants to send me the updated
source files/kernel i would be glad to try them on these network cards.
If anyone wants to hack the kernel directly on that machine let me know,
and i will put machine up on the internet since it's going in to
production only 20 days from now.
Well, i guess i am going to get a double speed hub then, since the router
and the modem bank here uses 10mbps or may be other network cards.
Val.

First of all, I would like to point out that I understand some of the
frustrations of tech support, particularly when it involves a product you have
some personal investment in and considerably enthusiasm for. Believe me when I
say this: I live in Seattle, the heart of Microsoft Country, and for around
95% of the businesses out here, NT Is The Best Thar Is. They're phasing out
their Suns, their Macs, and pretty much everything else to go NT---and they're
either baffled that their support costs are spiraling, or completely ignorant
(at the moment) that they are. Just *try* pushing FreeBSD in this environment.
[Oddly enough, one of the best tools I have is just setting up a FreeBSD box
and an NT box, running on identical (and I mean *identical*) hardware, and
letting them run their respective screensavers. My favorite ploy is to set up
the NT "Stars" screensaver, with 200 stars (the maximum) on a relatively fast
speed. It looks terribly jerky. Then I set up
xtacy -root -few -stars -number 2048 -delay 0
on the Unix box in xscreensaver. I had to increase the number of stars to 2048
just to SLOW DOWN the box enough. I also keep -number 200 around just for
reference. Dang if that FreeBSD box don't look tons faster.]
But I still think that the appropriate method for dealing with misperceptions
(and that's all this was, was a misperception) is to correct the perception,
and do it in an engaging and preferably hypertolerant manner. Believe me:
they'll feel more stupid than if you'd attacked them, but the won't feel like
you hate them. One example would have been in this case:
Wellllll, I can see how you'd get that impression, because what Linux
does (in its infinite wisdom) is mask the floating-point exceptions by
default altogether. So you still get inaccurate results (you should
check that out sometime), but you just don't get *told* about it.
FreeBSD is just being honest with you.
Fortunately, FreeBSD has a solution, already in use by mathematicians
worldwide. Check out "apropos float" sometime, paying special
attention to fpgetmask(3), fpsetprec(3) and fpgetprec(3).
A little smug, perhaps, but gentle. In one fell swoop, you deprecate the
"Linux does better" feeling, and let them see that the answer was right in
front of them the whole time. The main downside is that it takes a lot more
time to answer questions this way. :l (Not a trivial concern to people like
you, and especially Doug.)
In any case, I do empathize, and I'm sorry he got to you like that. I trust
you'll be able to take a deep breath next time. :)

If you are running 2.2.x then only one divert rule will work as you
expect..
you need to compile the kernel with IPFW_DIVERT_RESTART
this changes the semantics so that
multiple diverts are possible.
that change in semantics is that after diversion and reinjection,
the packet restarts the firewall AFTER the rule# that caused the
diversion..
the old semantics were that the reinjected packet restarted teh firewall
at the beginning and skips the rule that caused the diversion.
The problem with the old semantic is that you could only remember one
diversion, so if you had 2 diverts you would loop forever between them.
in -current the new semantic is the default.

Greetings.
Once again, I present with a tale of the weird: My secondary
nameserver has always had the wrong time, but since it does
nothing but DNS, I've never bothered to correct it: until yesterday.
Like all of our machines, it runs ntpdate -sb on bootup and
at midnight every day. Nevertheless, heres ns2's "date":
jb214@ns2$ date
Sat Aug 2 08:57:13 CDT 1930
And here are the relevent log entries:
Aug 1 19:06:58 ns2 ntpdate[200]: step time server 192.52.106.6 offset 0.001704
Aug 1 19:09:25 ns2 named[85]: secondary zone "mfn.org" time warp
Aug 1 19:47:57 ns2 named[85]: secondary zone "mfn.org" time warp
Aug 1 20:04:27 ns2 named[85]: secondary zone "mfn.org" time warp
Aug 1 20:37:54 ns2 named[85]: secondary zone "mfn.org" time warp
Since NS2 is "headless" and I'll leave this as is if I can't resolve
it *easily*, but I'm puzzled. Why won't ntpdate correct the date? Also,
the time is off, even though I have the time zone set and the daemon
running:
jb214@ns2$ ps -wax
PID TT STAT TIME COMMAND
0 ?? DLs 0:00.57 (swapper)
1 ?? IWs 0:00.22 /sbin/init --
2 ?? DL 0:00.79 (pagedaemon)
3 ?? DL 0:01.87 (vmdaemon)
4 ?? DL 0:14.74 (update)
23 ?? IWs 0:00.06 adjkerntz -i
80 ?? Ss 0:04.79
Go figure? While I'm at it, what does the "time warp" message
actually *mean*? I can *see* that the time is wrong, but how
is it that named knows something is wrong? And precisely
what is it that named is trying to tell me?
TIA,

Is there a FreeBSD kernel that can be loaded from ROM ?
If not, What is the minimum IDE interface support required ? (Read and
Write ... or just Read with minor kernel mods ?)
I have to get the system up and running with a custom system BIOS. I
need to know my minimum requirements.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Look at the FreeBSD source tree,

The FreeBSD boot code is there. Look in biosboot.

i have had problems with DEC-based cards (netgear fa-310tx) running at
10Mbps. ifconfig -a reports an OACTIVE flag set and i can find little to
no documentation on this flag.
i searched a BSDI mailing list and it seems to signify a memory address
conflict/overlap.

Dump Win98, install FreeBSD, and playing CDs will most likely cause you
no interruption or slowdown. I don't have a CDrom in my FreeBSD machine,
but I have a linux machine (386sx/33) that I play audio CDs on, and it's fine
while running X and other things.

I found that we have to lpd directories:

and
drwxr-xr-x 2 root daemon - 512 Feb 12 1997 /var/spool/output/lpd/
Is there a special reason for this? Where are the printer directories
stored normally?
The lock file seems to go into /var/spool/output ...

Free BSD GURU,
I developed an application that does multicasting.....I am trying to send
packet sizes ranging from 1000 bytes to 12,500 bytes. My test
configuration consist of a receiver on one and a sender both FREE BSD ver
2.2.6. I can successfully send and receive a packet size of 1400 bytes or
less, using the system calls sendto and recvfrom. However, I cannot seem
to get it to work for packets larger than 1400 bytes. The symptoms of the
sender are as follow - after a hundred or more packets the sendto system
call returns an error code via the perror call of such "sendto: can not
route to host". In addition the receiver never receives any packets at
all!!
FYI, I also found that if run the test with packet size greater than 1400
bytes, starting the same sender and receiver mention above in different
process windows on the same machine, the sender behaves the same. However
the receiver does indeed receive all packets generated by the sender!!!
I have set up an SGI IRIX UNIX machine as the sender and the receiver a
FREEBSD and am able to run both of the above test successfully.
Your help would be greatly appreciated, I have spent a few days looking
into this problem and am stumped.
Sincerely,
David Lee

Hi guys.
I recently upgraded my motherboard to the
Epox 100 Mhz bus,AGP,socket 7, and am having lots of problems. I'm not sure
what to check really.
The silly thing works fine for a random amount of time, which is always less
than 5 minutes and then page faults and reboots...
Heres the full machine config
Epox 100 Muz Bus, AGP, socket 7, with VIA chipset
amd k6-2 300 running @ 100mhz
64 Meg SDRAM Dimm @ 100 mhz
A diamond Viper AGP 330, but I'm only accessing it text mode at the
moment...
6.4 Gig Seagate UDMA drive... (using a 2 gig partition)
Help please :)
What could be causing these faults?

Ok I am running 2.2.7 with natd 1.9 to link a mac and a pc to the net via
a cable modem. Everything works great except for one thing, I can't get
any irc client to provide an ident response. I can DCC fine, and the
client see's the irc server etc, just the ident seems to get lost. Anyone
have this working? should it work?

You might like to check the handbook 'Staying in touch' section or
something like that. You must use CVSup, which will fetch the new sources
you need, and then make world with this.
You might like to check my website's FreeBSD section for a little
discussion about upgrading...

I can't speak specifically to Viking II's, but I can tell you that Quantum
is permanently off our purchase list. We've had nearly 100% failure rates
on them, only Micropolis was worse. Our favorites are IBM, then Seagate.
It's astounding how cool the IBM drives run, the Quantums nearly burn your
hand while the IBMs are barely above room temp.

To my knowledge there is NO way to convert between DES and MD5, short of
cracking and then re-encrypting.

Few things I'd check, I'm not familiar with Epox motherboards, but
I'd check all your CPU settings again, especially the Voltage Jumper. If
it's a jumperless motherboard I'd be dumping it PDQ. Also, check your
memory, just because it says it's 100MHZ compatible, dosen't mean it is
really. Very few memory manufacturers test's actually put any kind of load
on the chip! They just test how fast the memory goes, and that what I/O it
does is the same coming as it is going. Even if it failed speed tests, a
lot of manufacturers sell off the rejects barrel to be reclaimed, but gets
packaged as working memory!

I have a PCMCIA cdrom drive that is installed in my c: partition(Win95).
When I boot from the FreeBSD install disk and try to install form cdrom
onto my d: partition, BSD can't detect the cdrom drive. I installed this
cdrom drive from DOS but it still won't recognize the drive. If you guys
have any suggestions I would love to hear them. thanks

I am a bit bewildered by the following section in /etc/rc.conf:
timed_enable="NO" # Run the time daemon (or NO).
timed_flags="" # Flags to timed (if enabled).
ntpdate_enable="NO" # Run the ntpdate to sync time (or NO).
ntpdate_program="ntpdate" # path to ntpdate, if you want a different one.
ntpdate_flags="" # Flags to ntpdate (if enabled).
xntpd_enable="NO" # Run xntpd Network Time Protocol (or NO).
xntpd_program="xntpd" # path to xntpd, if you want a different one.
xntpd_flags="-p /var/run/xntpd.pid" # Flags to xntpd (if enabled).
tickadj_enable="NO" # Run tickadj (or NO).
tickadj_flags="-Aq" # Flags to tickadj (if enabled).
If I wish to use NTP to synchronize my system clock, and serve NTP so
the other machine on my network can synch to that, which of these do I
enable? More generally, are these options mutually exclusive, or do
they work together? Also, does anyone know a good NTP source on the
east coast of the U.S.? Thanks in advance.

Sir, we appreciate your prompt response, but the truth is that eventthough with the command perl and trace we have being able to see better the file still is not quite good, the end of line (LF) are not converted or don't appear. So I was concern with the fact the FreeBSD is an application, which when you save a file withing that application use some formats proper of that application, is like word perfect document, when you save a file using wordPerfect if you try to type it from DOS it will be not possible, unless from WordPerfect when you save the file you instruct to save it in the format you want to see it. So I was wondering if by any chance, Is there a possibility that we can open the file within FreeBSD and then save it with a command of FreeBSD in ASCII or as Text file? Cause that will give me solution to this dilema. I will appreciate your response again

I had freebsd installed with xwindows on a 200M laptop
and 17M swap with just enough room to install
netscape but had to move some stuff around
to different partitions to be able to untar netscape
and install.
I used the mininial installation from floppies and then just
copied the xserver files over via ftp.

Hi guys.
I have recently transferred several virtual domains to another web hosting
service, but my nameserver does not see the domains on look up (none of the
ones I've transferred to this one hosting service). The interesting thing
is that I have transferred other domains to other hosts and havent had this
problem so I'm having difficullty accepting that its my problem, but hey it
could be I guess. I will outline what I see below:
ok heres a for instance:
I do a whois chesserrealty.com from my nameserver and I get
Record last updated on 21-Jul-98.
Record created on 17-Oct-96.
Database last updated on 20-Aug-98 04:21:41 EDT.
Domain servers in listed order:
NS1.GRNCO.NET 208.21.151.1
NS2.GRNCO.NET 208.21.151.2
ok, so then I do a nslookup for www.chesserrealty.com from my name server I
get
No match for "WWW.CHESSERREALTY.COM".
of course I cant ping em or traceroute them since I cant look them up :)
Now the interesting part:
I use nslookup off of another server... like this:
ns# nslookup www.chesserrealty.com ns2.mci.net
Server: ns2.mci.net
Address: 204.70.57.242
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: www.chesserrealty.com
Address: 208.21.151.2
so now this is weird. these domains have been transferred for quite a long
long time.
I got to looking in my log files and I see lots of entries like this:
Aug 15 14:26:56 ns named[11593]: "151.21.208.in-addr.arpa IN NS" points to a
CNAME (ns1.grnco.net)
Just out of curiosity, I ping ns1.grnco.net and I get
ns# ping ns1.grnco.net
PING hal.grnco.net (208.21.151.1): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 208.21.151.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=52 time=124.032 ms
64 bytes from 208.21.151.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=52 time=123.728 ms
64 bytes from 208.21.151.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=52 time=123.395 ms
so this is what I _think_ is happening:
the name server @ grnco is really named hal.grnco.net, from the lookup and
pinging.
ns1 is a cname for hal...
the reverse records in their in-addr.arpa mapping is pointing the NS entries
to a CNAME
which is a no-no from what I've seen / read.
Would my name server be refusing their "broadcasts" due to this?
what else can I try or look at?

Greetings!
I have this pretty little Dell GX1 sitting here just begging to have
FreeBSD installed on it. So, I installed it. :-) Only little problem is
the networking - it has a PCI 3Com 3c905B-TX netcard, and it is not being
detected at boot.
I've checked the FAQ and archives - it seems that support for the 90x
series of netcards is spotty at best.
Is there a driver for this card? A flag I need to set? Or is it simply
not supported, and I'm out of luck?
Thanks in advance!
Will England

Greetings,
I would like to create root partitions for three different versions of
FreeBSD on the same disk (wd0, if it matters). I've installed FreeBSD
2.2.7 on two of the partitions so far, but whenever I boot, but no
matter how I boot, it always boots from the first partition, not the
second. (If it matters, I've tried by choosing the proper F? key under
the FreeBSD boot manager, choosing the partition from the "Boot: "
prompt, and by using the Minix boot manager). Poking around the system
and FreeBSD WWW site yields no definite information, though hints that
it can't be done.
To cut to the chase, is there a way to boot different versions of Free-
BSD from the same disk? After all, I can boot FreeBSD, Windows 95, and
Minix from the same disk, why not FreeBSD-2.2.7, FreeBSD-stable, and
FreeBSD-current? I'd be shocked if no one else has ever tried this, and
hope I have not missed anything obvious.
Thanks! Any suggestions, pointers, and hints welcomed.

Hi !
I just got the last Release-CDs from Walnut Creek (2.2.7) and in
the box there was a paper with some hints.
One of the hints I don't like. It's the splitting of the system and
the packages/ports collection in the future. As long FreeBSD user
(over 4 years now) I never needed the live file system. But
I often needed the ports or packages. Sometimes I'm looking
for old software and because I have the old CDs I can get these
ports even though they're not to get anywhere on the net anymore.
I think, I'd quit my FreeBSD sub (I really don't want to, I like
the features of FreeBSD, nothing ever has been better !)
if this splitting will take place, because I could only use
the install CD for upgrade but can't use the CD for installing
software from the archive, so it's easier to get the Software
directly from the net instead of having 2 subs (one for
the system and one for the tools/ports/packages). Besides of this
I couldn't afford 2 subs (just the shipping eats up my money). This
would be sad because even though I don't have that much money, I'd
like to further support FreeBSD. Maybe there's another solution ?
Maybe put those big & huge packages (e.g. emacs) only as binary
distribution (package) onto the CDs ? Or any other ideas ?
Is the idea of splitting just a vague idea or is it burned in
the heads without any kind of changing ? I really would accept
more than 4 CDs just to get the full software archive.
Maybe even a slightly higher price would be acceptable, as long
as it's cheaper than 2 subs...
Any ideas ?
Bye,
Udo

UFS is the filesystem type. There are other types too.

If you have "The Complete FreeBSD" or another good unix reference it will
be more thorough.
c and d are reserved and have special meaning.

Don't know about the port. But since Windowmaker people make a new
release more often then Linus can make new kernels, I'd assume it would be
hard to maintain such port.
But here is the good news: latest version compile just fine out of
the box on 2.2.7:
% wmaker -version
WindowMaker 0.18.0
% uname -a
FreeBSD 0wn.jkb.org 2.2.7-STABLE FreeBSD 2.2.7-STABLE #0: Mon Aug 17
17:38:12 GMT 1998 root@0wn.jkb.org:/usr/src/sys/compile/0WN i386
If you have any compile problems let me know.

I have the following set up;
In /etc/rc.conf;
### Network Time Services options: ###
timed_enabled="NO" # Run the time daemon (or NO).
timed_flags="" # Flags to timed (if enabled).
ntpdate_enable="NO" # Run the ntpdate to sync time (or NO).
ntpdate_flags="" # Flags to ntpdate (if enabled).
xntpd_enable="YES" # Run xntpd Network Time Protocol (or NO).
xntpd_flags="-c /etc/ntp.conf" # Flags to xntpd (if enabled).
tickadj_enable="YES" # Run tickadj (or NO).
tickadj_flags="-Aq" # Flags to tickadj (if enabled).
and /etc/ntp.conf
driftfile /etc/ntp.drift
server clepsydra.dec.com
server ns.scruz.net
server ntp-1.mcs.anl.gov
server ntp-1.cso.uiuc.edu
server ntp.ucsd.edu
server smart1.svi.org
peer ontario
Notice that most of these NTP servers are on the West Coast where I live
you should use your ISP's time server and maybe one or two close to
you. See http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/servers.htm for more info on
public NTP time servers. The last line is my other FreeBSD machine. Both my
machines point at each other as peers.

put all 3 root partitions on the same slice
say, a, e and f
then use /boot.conf to select between them.
you will need separate /usr/partitions as well,
common binaries (say in a shared partition) should probably be
from the oldest version as newer version still run older binaries.
you can make a 2nd BSD SLICE to hold more partitions that will be
mounted by /etc/fstab in the appropriate root partition.

On the FreeBSD web site ( www.freebsd.com ) there used to be some
XFree86 desktop screen shots. Where can I find them because I can not
seem to locate them on the web site anymore?
Thanks!

Hi there,
I have a question and a comment.
Firstly, if I have a private class of IP numbers 192.168.168.1 - 255 and a
BSD box with one single public IP number on the ppp link.
I run ppp -ddial -alias myisp. This will permanently connect me to my ISP.
I do not have any filters in place, so can anyone get to my private IP'ed
network from the Internet, or because of the alias option and the private IP
numbers not being routed are they blocked.
Secondly, the documentation for setting filters should be perhaps a little
bit clearer which section and which file the filter information should go
in. I tried creating ppp.conf.filter, and only after a couple of hours
searching did it occur to me that the filter commands should go into
ppp.conf and the default section.
Cheers
Craig

Anybody ever see this one before?
>It is unable to mount the /home directory. The machine boots, then
>scrolls ^D's across the screen. I can ctrl+c out of it and get to the

I tried looking through the archives and couldn't find anything about it.
The machine was running 2.2-stable that had been compiled from, hmm, as I
recall from sometime before the changes to mount were done. (We have
limited access to the machine, so I hadn't wanted to cross that hurdle
until we had someone to do an upgrade on site).
Any thoughts on the cause and how to fix it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

FreeBSD 2.2.7 recognizes my Maxtor 11.5GB harddrive as a 8.4GB drive....
Is this a limitation of FreeBSD or an error on my part?

I've got a 3c905; when I go to configure the network for install via ftp,
the only options that I'm presented with are PPP or SLIP. I'm using the
3.0+cam from ftp.cdrom.com.
If I select lp0 (PPP), I can go to config the network, but no matter what
I try here, it alway sbails out and tells me it can't configure lp0. I
imagine there is some "extra option" to make things work, but I don't
remember since it's been about 2 years since my last freebsd install,
which I did much in the same fashion.
Hints...?

That is because it is a "Winprinter". Take it back and get an HP 890.
Sure it costs a bit more, but you won't regret it.

Ok, I have edited /usr/share/syscons/keymaps/us.iso.kbd. I have added
some french characters. It work! BUT only at the prompt without logging
in or has root! I really dont understand why. Else, when I log has a
user, its doing a crazy bell sound or in ircII, its writing letters
without the special accent.
<SCREENSHOT>
f00f$ ee /usr/share/syscons/keymaps/qc.ca.kbd
026 '[' '{' esc esc 'ê' 'Ê' esc esc O
027 ']' '}' gs gs 'ç' 'Ç' gs gs O
039 ';' ':' nop nop 'ï' 'Ï' nop nop O
040 ''' '"' nop nop 'è' 'È' nop nop O
052 '.' '>' nop nop 'ë' 'Ë' nop nop O
053 '/' '?' nop nop 'é' 'É' nop nop O
Another problem is that Xwindows seems to not use syscons's file and to
be independant.
In that way, you simply hold ALT to use the special characters or
alt-shift if its in upper case. The six button are the six right button
near "enter".

How did you install FreeBSD?
You can install X windows in precisely the same fashion. Keep in mind that
this is _not_ an upgrade though.

You need to upgrade to 2.2.7 stable. The drivers were not ready in
time for inclusion in the 2.2.7 release aparently. Use CVSUP to
download the source tree and rebuild your OS. Its fairly straight
forward and there are excellent docs online.

Oh! I'm sorry. Let me apologize, because I figured out what was wrong,
and fixed it..... without letting anyone know.
It came from the factory with 514 byte sectors. a low-level format from
adaptecs lovely utilities fixed that. :)

OK, I will ask again....
I have a file called flist, generated by doing ipfw list > /fwlist , this
creates a text file containing the current firewall rules. I have a crontab run
a script that calls this every hour, (we have a dynamic set of firewall rules
based on circumstances - but this is besides the point) and this works fine.
Now when I reboot, I start with a real basic set of firewall rules, the
defaults actually. What I want to do is to configure the firewall based apon
the list (fwlist) on reboot.....
How and the hell do I do this......is it even possible.....if not fine, at
least I wont go nuts anymore, if it is HOW.....
Yes, I have read the ipfw man page, I have read rc.firewall and am still
lost....please give me a hand here...

When attempting to su to root I receive an error message:
"segmentation fault" any ideas on how I can fix this. I had no problem
with this using 2.2.6 . Any clues as to what might be causing this to
happenqy. What addtional information should I include to help troubleshoot
this.

Hello,
I am having difficulty trying to decide which software
to run.
If you could answer these questions, on NT w/ Website Pro,
compared with FREEBsd, I would greatly appreciate it:
I am also new to this, and I am looking for a simple, and
easy to understand application:
Questions:
---------
1.) Ease of Use (Administration)
2.) Software Compatibility Issues (cgi's, perl scripts, C
programs, etc.)
3.) Re-booting Issues
4.) Security (Which is more secure?)
5.) FreeBSD w/ Apache OR Website Pro for NT?
which is better & why?
6.) Anything else I forgot to mention.

NT is easier to admin then Unix to a person who never used a
computer before. For me Unix would be easier to admin then NT since I
don't know much about NT tunning, etc.

Perl was written on Unix. Unix is written in C. It all ties
together.

Most Unix boxes have months and months of uptime and are rebooted
for software patches/updates. NT on the other hand.. well..

FreeBSD can be make very secure (www.best.com/~jkb/howto.txt)
Any person with half a clue in NT (that include me) can take over
NT box in no time.

FreeBSD is better. Why? Ask people who run it. Like yahoo! which
is 100% FreeBSD shop. Or ask people at Hotmail who run FreeBSD on their
web servers because NT couldn't handle the load.

Yes, you forgot to ask where to get FreeBSD. Look at
www.freebsd.org for more info.

Hi there,
We run three freebsd machines and one NT box. The reason for the FreeBSd
boxes originally was cost, but in terms of ease of use the 3 BSD boxes have
caused us far less problems than the NT box.
>>>1.) Ease of Use (Administration)
Depends on your background, we had a guy who had a unix background so BSD
was not that difficult. In terms of installing NT is much simpler than BSD.
>>>2.) Software Compatibility Issues (cgi's, perl scripts, C programs, etc.)
We still can't get perl working properly on our NT box, worked right away
with FreeBSD. We still can't afford a C compiler for NT, comes free with
FreeBSD.
>>>3.) Re-booting Issues
We only ever turn the BSD boxes off to install new cards, which is not very
often now, we have to restart the NT box every time we do any changes to the
network.
>>>4.) Security (Which is more secure?)
Seem to be about the same for both. It depends on how vigilant you are
about security fixes. The Unix ones seem to be a bit quicker once a hole
gets identified though.
>>>5.) FreeBSD w/ Apache OR Website Pro for NT? which is better & why?
This would depend on exactly you want to do. If you have a database in ODBC
format then NT is the only way to go (as far as I know), otherwise Apache is
a great option.
>>>6.) Anything else I forgot to mention.
We use the NT box for ASP and data driven web sites, because our background
is in VB and MS Access programming. If we need to serve up only static HTML
pages or simple perl scripts we use the BSD machines.
The biggest thing is cost, we have a 486 DX100 running a web server and
small mail server, and we have a P2 running NT just doing web serving
(although from a database) and the BSD box is much quicker. THe 486 we
scraped together for $200, the NT box cost us $5000 including software.
Hope this helps
Cheers
Craig

Geeee This is going to be HARD..... heheheheh {{GRIN}}!!
> Questions:

FreeBSD .... allows more control over what you are trying to do or
accomplish.
> 2.) Software Compatibility Issues (cgi's, perl scripts, C

FreeBSD .... all capable under freebsd with no installation hassles, also
tcl, python, java ;)
> 3.) Re-booting Issues
FreeBSD.... turn it on and let it run forever..... even after you install
new software
> 4.) Security (Which is more secure?)
FreeBSD is far far more secure, NT doesnt know the meaning of security

FreeBSD and apache ..... more throuput, easier to upgrade, and understand,
also much faster at serving requests

Hi everyone,
Is there a way to enable user or group quotas on an MFS file system?
I have /tmp mounted as MFS and would like to limit the amount of space
that users can use. Running 2.2.6-RELEASE on a P5 with 32MB RAM.
Regards
Johan

i would like to post my solution to my problem in the event someone
is having similiar problems.
what works for me now is when a client dials up
ppp.linklup
MYADDR
delete ALL
add default HISADDR
but this still give me the ppp.log error "0.0.0.0 already exists".
i thought i could get rid of the error using "add! default HISADDR"
but the default route still ended up deleted.
now that things appear to be working for me, is there any way
to get rid of that ppp.log warning "0.0.0.0 already exists" when a
client dials up via "ppp -auto -alias isp" ???
ps. i use "delete 0" and "add 0 0 HISADDR" for the isp connection.
thanks for all the hard work brian ;)

. . . why is it that so many ports result in
/usr/lib/crt0.o: Undefined symbol `_main' referenced from text segment
and fail near the end of the process? This time, it was graphics/png. I mean,
I can usually fix it, but it just happens quite a bit of the time, and I'm a
bit confused by this, because it seems like sort of a glaring thing to leave in
a port, y'know?

NT. NT, IMHO, has far too much overhead to be a webserver. FreeBSD is
lean and mean and is better suited, in my humble but newbie opinion.
As for rebooting, I reboot my NT box more often than my FreeBSD box.
I reckon FreeBSD is more secure as a webserver as everyone has the code
[think about it before you reply]. And fixes come out way faster than for
NT.

Hello everyone,
I am trying to install FreeBSD on my laptop, a Toshiba 445CDX, with 16M
ram, 1382MB HD partitioned with 600MB free for BSD at the beginning of the
HD space( Offset at 63). I use the continue with installation and
sysinstall detects all my hardware fine, it lists my PCMCIA modem as ze0
or ze1, goes by too fast to be sure. After selecting everything to
install, we end up at the Select Connection type. PLIP, or SLIP on Com1,
or PPP on Com1.
Only choices I get.
Problem here is, Com1 is *not* where my modem is and cannot link up to the
web to complete the install.
Any and all help or suggestions would be *greatly* appreciated.
TIA,
Rocky Hurley

I haven't been able to get Red Hat Linux 5.1 to work. It appears to
install correctly but falls over in a big heap at boot time, with all sorts
of weird and wonderful errors from the startup scripts and from init.
Eventually it just sits there and won't respond. Very odd.

Just to let you know that FreeBSD 2.2.7 (which I received this morning)
also panics with a "bad dir" error during installation of the "bin"
distribution.
Shame.
Does anyone know the nature of the problem? It seems to be with the "wd"
disk driver. For a start, unless the CD-ROM is in "alternate"
configuration the kernel just doesn't find it at all.

Hi all
I'm looking for a pager script which will support the protocol used widely
in Europe known as UCP - Universal Computer Protocol to send a page to a
text pager or possibly to a mobile phone. I understand hylafax will
supposedly do this but on a low power system as I'm using it's a lot of
setup work and I do't need to do faxes etc.
Is there UCP functionality within qpage? Or has a kermit script been
written for this protocol?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Chris

On Sunos i used a tool called strace to trace systemcalls with their
parameter.
Today i downloaded the src but the package configure tells me that FreeBSD
is not supported.
Is there another tool to trace system calls on FreeBSD 2.2.7?
I need it to check xdvi, which does not find the generated fonts.
Have a nice day
Gerald

yes, it's mainly to provide a small FreeBSD distibution site for the
latest release. I will host some kind of bbs here , and I would like to
distribute FreeBSD locally, for people who can't access the net.

ok. How? I don't want to re-install! Where is it determined? Is it when
ftpd is compiled? If so, how do I re-compile _only_ ftpd? I searched man
ftpd and found nothing.

The basic suite includes...? I don't think X would fit... Does somebody
out there even _knows_ how big the ./2.2.7-RELEASE/ dir is?

I agree. But what are the pros and cons? Where could I find a discussion
or tutorial on this?

Yes, but isn't it bad to not have access to the /usr/src dir in case of
a... something? If I want to recompile something, I must un-tar it, and
move it! Isn't there a way to just link it???

You see, that's the main problem. I don't have plenty of space...

I would recommend that the old, buggy, core-dumping version be tossed

by Sobell, and/or "Unix Power Tools".

But in terms of resolving non-trivial problems (such as IP address
collisions on the local network), neither NT nor Unix is trivial and
gaining the skills to resolve issues such as this on Unix is no more
difficult than gaining the same skills on NT.

You must be one of the lucky few who hasn't yety been targetted by
a serious nasty hacker. NT is an easy victim to such clowns, while
Unix systems generally aren't.

Sorry, I'd have to disagree. MySQL runs on FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Linux
and other Unix and Unix-ish system and offers ODBC drivers. I can
think of no instance in which NT with any available web server would
be a better solution than Apache on a Unix box (and yes, I run both
Unix and NT boxen for a living).

If your programmers known only VB and Access, then you might be stuck
with an MS solution. A much better solution would be to pay for some
training for your guys, and teach them Perl and Unix. In such an
environment you can do everything you can in the VB world, but do it
more quickly, more easily, more reliably, and have a far superior
product when it's done.
In my current position I use Apache on Unix (Solaris 2.5.1) machines
to build dynamic web pages and maintain small-to-medium-size
databases. I also run a purchased vertical-market package on
an NT box. Changes to the dynamic page build scripts happen much
rapidly on the Unix machines, and we have had far fewer security-
related issues on the Unix boxes. I have also run some benchmarks,
and found that I can get a much higher web throughput from the
little P90 with 32 MB of RAM at my desk (running FreeBSD) than
from the NT machine, a PPro 233 with 128 MB of RAM.

I'm guessing that you performed your initial install over the Internet and it spawned a ppp process on another virtual
terminal, which allowed you to connect to the Internet with your MODEM and you performed a minimal install...
Now you have to configure ppp yourself (go to /etc/ppp and set up the files, also see man pppd). I suggest you
configure them so they support "demand dialing" a.k.a. "dial-on-demand". This way, anytime you fire up netscape or
anything that wants access to the Internet, your MODEM will dial/connect...
Then prior to starting /stand/sysinstall, ensure a connection is established... (use a ping to your ISP).
Later, you can set up ipfw (IP firewall) to NOT cause a connection due to pings, and such other trivial stuff. See
previous threads on this forum.

You can find a binary (no source) at the RealAudio homepage
(www.realaudio.com). There is a version for FreeBSD available.
The actual download page is at
http://www.real.com/products/player/50player/downloadrealplayer.html?wp=dl0998&src=download
If memory serves me correctly, I had to downlaod the staticly linked
version because the dyamincly linked one did not work.

In order to build a custom kernel, you must have installed the kernel sources (I don't know if i386 gets laid down if you
didn't elect to install kernel sources). You can go into /stand/sysinstall and select Config...Distributions...src...sys
and it will install the neccessary source files to build a kernel. You have to go to /sys/i386/conf and cp GENERIC
MYCPU where MYCPU is any name you want. (you probably know most of what I write here, but just trying to make sure
you do). If you HAVE previously installed kernel source, it appears to be GONE now!!! Try again...

I'm reading this thread backwards. If what I'm about to say has already been
said, I apologise.
http://www.caldera.com/news/features/971222.keylabs.html
This page compares apache on a linux box to something else running on NT.
The NT box starts to slow down after only a moderate load. The linux
box actaully gets better as the load goes up, probably due to the way
the buffer cache handles repetitive file access.
As seems to be my slogan lately, this should be as good or better with
FreeBSD.

i've never successfully gotten NT to install on my machine...my personal

I'd say that many versions of unix (FreeBSD, Open/NetBSD, RedHat, IRIX 6.5...)
are much more secure _out of the box_ than an NT box is out of the box.

Apologies...my system has been in a state of dis-repair for the
past few weeks, and I haven't been able to get the upgrade to that port
yet.
The problem you are seeing, as I recall it, is that you have no
config files, which the current port wasn't smart enough to tell you. The
newest version of XICQ does have modifications so that it at least tells
you what you are missing before it exits cleanly...
I will try and get it upgraded this coming weekend...

While I have not had this problem with several other Pentium systems, in
building 2.2.7-RELEASE from CD-ROM I recently encountered a system that
would not run sysinstall without page faults. This was apparently caused
by enabling "Speculative Read" in the BIOS.
Abit AB-TX5 (Intel 430TX)
AMD K6-233 at "normal" voltages and clock
64 MB SDRAM (10 ns)
I do not know the hardware cause of this problem; the vendor I use has been
very reliable and supplies better-than-average components. I have enabled
speculative read on other AB-TX5-based systems (albeit all Intel Pentiums)
without incident, and find the M/B to be very reliable, even at 83 MHz bus
speeds.
In the hopes someone else may be spared gray hairs,
Jeff

Hi there,
I am trying to install freeBSD via FTP. Unfortunately, I have run into a
problem which I cannot figure out, despite having read all the relevant
docs. I really hope I am not being an utter idiot and wasting your time,
but I would really appreciate some help.
I have created a boot disk and it seems to work fine. The problem arises
when I try to install via FTP. The Help menu recommends installation by
ethernet, a type of connection the machine has. Unfortunately, when I
get to the menu specificying how the connection is to be made, the only
options which come up are direct parallel link or two pairs of SLIP and
PPP opetion -- there doesn't seem to be an Ethernet option.
I have tried using both the PPP options, but to no avail -- even though
I have the name server info correct, I end up with the messahe that
'ftp.freebsd.org' is not recognised. I am at a loss as to what to try
nest. Can you guys give me any clues?
Many thanks in adavance and all the best,
Istvan

In the initial install on the machine which is to be the ftp archive
for later local ftp installs, when the setup screen in sysinstall asks
for you to set up the ftp login data, change the box that has
/var/ftp as the original ftp user area
to
/home/ftp
/usr/home/ftp (or wherever normal login users reside)
That is the easiest way to do it. It can be done manually after
install, but gets more complicated. You will need to edit the
password files and then tar up ftp from var and move it to wherever
the password file points to as the correct ftp location. Use vipw
to edit it and remake the database.
If you have a separate disk system for users and you want to keep
it separate from the usr or root trees, then hang the second drive
off /home. If all you have is one drive, then it is unimportant
where you hang the users, so use /home or /usr/home, for example.
This is a good use for a small second drive --- a safe or portable
ftp archive playspace.
This assumes that you only want to use a small /var for its original
intended use as the variable data file system with machine dependent
data. I don't consider something like Mr. ftp to be a machine dependent
person or login, especially if he is to hog a considerable amount of
system space allocation by mirroring a large RELEASE install tree,
for example. If you had several disk drives to play with, then you
could put /var on one whole drive by itself and let Mr. ftp have room
to play galore. If you only have one or two drives, then put Mr. ftp
along with the other users, if he hogs user space for things like
a whole RELEASE tree.
One could make the /var filesystem a large as necessary, but that would
waste valuable space later on if the ftp RELEASE tree were removed.
IMHO it is more workable to make Mr. ftp a normal login file system
area. There is pro and con for that, but if it is on your local
system, and space may be tight, make Mr. ftp a normal user area and
keep the /var file system as small as possible. That will conserve
disk space in the end.

The entire release LESS packages and LESS ports distfiles should be
around 130 megs. That is kindof big for /var on a smaller system,
although I can't think of anything theoretical that says /var could
not be as big as you need. Practically, there is a good reason
not to make /var that big.

I can't point to one right off, but the first thing I learned a couple
of years back, when playing with FBSD on my local servers was that
the ftp area overwhelmed /var. I routinely keep it out of there now,
because I don't want to waste disk space in /var holding things that
may not be around long, like a whole RELEASE tree (a con). It is more
advantageous disk space wise to put it on a large file system such as
/usr (a pro). That way, if it changes or is deleted over time the
/var is not holding excess empty space.

The /usr/src tree is always available to Mr. Root for compiles of kernels,
etc. I would not be of the opinion that Johnny ftp user should have clear
access to the main system sources, but rather to a copy of them. Mr. Root
feels safer that way... That is IMHO, .... others may feel differently.

If space is tight, keep /var small and put ftp on the /usr file system.
Since sources can come along in the installs, when you do the install,
then let each machine or one particular machine have an open /usr/src
tree somewhere other than /usr/src, for example in ftp/pub/usr/src.
I am sure others may have suggestions, too, well worth considering, but,
the first thing I load up on a machine are lots of spare ftp things,
that would normally overwhelm /var. Moving ftp to elswhere on a bigger
file system seems to me the best way to go, while conserving valuable
disk space.
Good Luck

I haven't tried the linux version and I don't know of a freebsd version.
However, aolserver is highly threaded. Given Freebsd's rather
limited support for threads, I think you would get poor performance,
if it worked at all. The preferred platform for aolserver is Digital Unix,
where it really screams. I happen to have this configuration setting
on a box next to my desk, and really love it.
I hear that FreeBSD 3.0 is going to have thread support. It would
probably be worth a look at that point.

Hi,
I tried adding options VM86 to a 3.0 kernel from 19980711-SNAP but this
did not fix the problem. I noticed in the LINT config that npx0 now has
an iosiz parameter that can be set to the memory size instead of MAXMEM
and that this can be set with userconfig as well. This option does work
when I set it in the kernel config file but does not work when using
userconfig since it only takes effect on the next boot after the parameter
is recorded in the kernel -- since the machine hangs during boot it never
gets recorded -- a catch 22 scenario.
This is all very useful for working around the problem and I thank you for
it but is not getting at the deeper issue of what is going wrong in the
first place and to determine the appropriate action to take -- either fix
FreeBSD or give useful information to IBM so they can fix their BIOS. I'm
looking for direction and assistance in what I should be looking at to get
a handle on the deeper issue.
Thanks again,
Tom

I think in the manual for my AOpen AP5T rev.3.1 (tx chipset), it mentions
that one can't use speculative read with two DIMMs - only if you have one.
I can't remember if the option is even available in the BIOS if you do
have two, though. Might that have had something to do with why it was
causing that?

Hi,
I did 'cat clear' recently, and saw that all it said was
exec tput clear
I noticed that when I just type that in at the command line, the result
is entirely different -- it logs me out, clears the screen and gives a
new login prompt. I like this a lot better than the regular "exit" or
"Ctrl-D" thing because it clears the screen first. These are my two
questions:
1) Why are the results different between the same commands in a shell
script and at the command line?
and
2) How can I write a shell script that does the same thing? (I tried,
but, of course, it did exactly what 'clear' does).
Thanks for any ideas,
Roman

If these are "trusted" local hosts on your ethernet, you can
export the /usr/src tree via NFS. Read-only, of course.
-or- If you trust these users with /non-anonymous/ ftp, then they can
access your entire directory tree. This gives them the same kind
of access as if they were local users with "shell accounts".
-or- Give them full login accounts.
-or- consider keeping the cdrom containing the "live" filesystem
(cdrom #3?) mounted under the anonymous ftp tree.
Mount this cdrom nodev,noexec,nosuid
-or- NFS mount your own filesystem under that /var/ftp tree.
be careful here. Do it readonly, maproot=0, and other things.
(read up on this!) Most of what I'm saying here is experimental
in nature, i.e. I have not tested the ideas fully.
-or- A "daring" approach might be to try "mount_union".
-or- /move/ the source tree into the ftp tree, and symlink /usr/src
to point there.

There are two:
comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc
comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.announce
However, IMHO this list is far superior in response time and quality.
Good luck,

No.
You'll need freebsd-current to use SMP. The 3.0 will come out on or about
October 15th. 2.2.7 will only use one of the two processors.

Well, exec replaces the current program with the other one. (tput in
this case.)
If it's a shell script, (e.g. clear) exec replaces the sh running
the script with tput.
>From the command line, it replaces your login shell.

for reasons, see the preceding.
Bash has a .bash_logout script, maybe other shells do.
This is the sort of thing you need to do on a system where you are
not rooted.
Usually, a better way is to have getty clear the screen.
Adding a "\f" to the login banner sequence in /etc/gettytab seems
to do the trick.
Before:
default:\
:cb:ce:ck:lc:fd#1000:im=\r\nFreeBSD (%h) (%t)\r\n\r\n:sp#1200:
After:
default:\
:cb:ce:ck:lc:fd#1000:im=\f\r\nFreeBSD (%h) (%t)\r\n\r\n:sp#1200:
Note that this will affect all getty'ed logins: console, serial
lines. (But not telnet and rlogin. These can be dealt with as
well, I think, but am too lazy to dig it out.) Maybe some terminal
types will choke on the \f.

Thanks for the lead. I just tried it and was able to download and
unzip the tar file. I used the static one as recommended.
The README says to then run a test, which fails, but not because of
raplayer - think it is as path problem. First I tried it without
adding raplayer3.0 explicitly to my path and then after modifying
.cshrc with set path=($path $HOME/raplayer3.0)
Both before and after I get the same response. Even tried to log in
again from a new xterm. Even tried it as root :-) Clearly the
executable exists.
cm110119# ls -l raplayer
-rwxr-xr-x 1 jwg wheel 1445888 Jan 2 1997 raplayer
cm110119# pwd
/usr/home/jwg/raplayer3.0
cm110119# which raplayer
raplayer: Command not found.
If I try the test, I get, as expected,
cm110119# raplayer welcome.ra
raplayer: Command not found.
Thanks for your insite.

Recall what 'exec' means to the shell. It means to "replace" the
current process (the shell) with the named one. So, your shell
isn't running anymore, the tput program is. When the tput program
ends; you are logged off.
Now, consider what this does for a shell script. Recall that executing
a script actually starts up another shell (unless you use exec to avoid
that.) So, when you have this in a shell script and execute that
script... the sub-shell exec's tput; which ends and returns back to
your original shell.
From the 'sh' man page:
exec [command arg ...]
Unless command is omitted, the shell process is replaced with the
specified program (which must be a real program, not a shell
builtin or function). Any redirections on the exec command are
marked as permanent, so that they are not undone when the exec
command finishes.

if you do not do the exec it is fine. Because after the exec is
done then it will kill the process that kills it. So when doing
the clear command it calls /bin/sh that calles the exec
Then when exec is done the /bin/sh dies, leaving you with the
shell you logged in with. If you think that clear is strange
then look at the script that is /usr/bin/clear in Solaris.

I've got a genuine DEC VT320 that I'm trying to hook up to a FreeBSD
box. I've got the MMJ to 25-pin serial connector, so the physical
connection is no problem, but I can't get any communication between
the FreeBSD box and the VT.
I've edited /etc/ttys and inserted an entry for ttyd1 (and I've tried
ttyd0 too):
ttyd1 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" vt100 on secure
I set vt100 compatibility mode on the 320, thinking it might be easier
to achieve communication, after vt300 mode didn't work, with no luck.
The VT320 is set up as follows: VT100 mode, VT100 ID, Transmit=9600,
Receive=Transmit, XOFF at 64, 8bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, no auto
answerback. I've also tried No XOFF and XOFF at 128.
The FreeBSD box is using a standard termcap and gettytab. It's got a
modem at cuaa0 (which is why I've mainly been trying ttyd1). Running
FreeBSD 2.2.5-STABLE.
Thanks for any help.

Look at execve(2) and exec(3) for info, but here's a
slightly-accurate summary:
The leading `exec' means, ``take the current process,
and _replace_ it with tput.'' So if you type `exec ...' at the
command line, the shell will no longer be running. To see
this in action, do the following:
Pop up two xterms. In one of them, type "echo $$" to get the
shell PID, which I'll call <PID>.
In the other xterm, do "ps <PID>", and it will print your shell info.
Now type "exec sleep 15" in the first xterm.
Quickly do "ps <PID>" in the other xterm -- the PID is no
longer your shell, it is the sleep process. Magic! :)
After 15 seconds, the sleep will finish, and the xterm will close.
If you want to simply clear the screen, skip the exec:
1. At a command line: you could type "tput clear"
2. In a shell script, without exiting the shell script:
"tput clear"
Hope this helps!

Hi All...
Does anyone know of software to run the US Robotics Sportster
ISDN TA? If not, does anyone know where I can get info on the command
structure for the thing? USR has nothing public on this device. I've
tried.
Alternatively, I've heard that someone has created software for it
for Linux. Has anyone heard of THIS one or know where I can find it?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks - Gene

Hi,
I've had one of these working with 2.2.2-RELEASE before... I seem to remember
the problem was handshaking... I also seem to remember resorting to using the
device on /dev/cuaaX rather than /dev/ttydX...
Make sure your cable is wired properly... As a last resort try reversing pins 2
and 3, and the handshaking pins (these depend on whether your using DB9 or DB25
at the PC end)...
I've been thinking of dragging the old DEC VT320 out the cupboard again, simply
because of the fact a serial line to our FreeBSD boxes crashes less often than a
WinNT/95 box running telnet ;-) I also seem to remember the ESC key remaps as
something weird like CTRL-3 unless your careful ;-)

Karl Pielorz

Is sio1 correctly detected at boot? (If you have a 16550A, then
a boot message claiming a 16450 is a non-detection, sigh.) Sort
of equivalently, does a mouse or external modem work on that port?
If they're talking correctly, you should be able to run
"cu -s 9600 -l /dev/cuaa1" (without getty running on the line)
and type to the terminal, and vice-versa.
You might also fire up "systat -v" and see if any interrupts
come across sio1 when you type on the terminal.

I don't know why you say Digital is the preferred platform, but
probably the busiest site that runs AOLserver is www.aol.com.
They run it on a farm of SGI Origin 200 servers (Irix 6.2).

>From the AOLserver download page:

Windows NT"
The fact that they specifically exclude FreeBSD suggest that they
have some particular reason for doing so. Which means you
probably won't have much luck making it work.
(What's interesting to note is that they supported WinNT up
through v2.1. When was the last time you heard of someone
*dropping* NT support?)

Hopefully this is why they don't support FreeBSD, so that may
change when 3.0 comes out.

I can try that to see if it helps. I'll let you know.

DB25 at the PC end, but the cable isn't anything I've made. It's an
actual DECconnect Office Cable, with two MMJ ends. One end plugs into
the VT, the other plugs into a DEC MMJ<-->DB25 converter, which I have
plugged into my serial port.

Right you are. It was right in front of me. I went into the XF86Config file and replaced the values I thought I had entered
before.

Thanks for the references, but I can't afford the book just now. As for the handbook, are you sure it discusses Xwindows
configuration at all? If so, which section?
Thanks,

Looks like I've got the mouse configured incorrectly, but I'm not sure
what I've done wrong.
What's the best way to troubleshoot from this point? Can I just edit the
XF86Config file? If so, how?
Thanks,

Also, you may want to try switching from a straight-through cable
to a null-modem, or vice versa. I would expect that a VT320 is
a DTE (Data Terminal Equipment, which is French for "thing that talks
to modem") and so is your FreeBSD box. You connect DTE to DCE
(Data Communications Equipment, Portugese for "modem") with a
straight cable, but you connect DTE to DTE with a null-modem.

I have FreeBSD 2.2.7 running on a Pentium 266 system.
I have a USR 33.6 external modem plugged up and
working wonderfully on COM2 on this system. I just
installed a Zoltrix 56KFlex modem but can't seem to
get the thing running. I have this modem set for COM4,
IRQ5.
When my computer boots, I see the modem at
address 02E8 in the startup screen. Then the system
boots to FreeBSD but I never see anything found at
IRQ 5. So on I go and try to MAKEDEV ttyd3 but I get
the error message:
MAKEDEV: Command not found
I run MAKEDEV from the /dev folder, but still no go. Can
anyone help me with this?

Hi all,
I've talked a client into Freebsd instead of NT, but they have an
atapi tape ie, Seagate Travan ide, that was purchased some time ago
and can't be exchanged. Damn! :(
So, are atapi tapes supported yet?
tia,
Riley

The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a
web page or any other online documentation. The result is that most
leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are
printed. Unfortunately, "The Complete FreeBSD", published by Walnut
Creek, is no exception. Since going to press, a number of anomalies
have surfaced.
The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos.
They relate to the first edition, formatted on 19 July 1996. If you
have this book, please check this list. If you have the second
edition (16 December 1997), please check the parallel posting or get
the file at ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.
I apply these changes to the current source of the book, so if you buy
a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a bug or a
suspected bug in the book, please contact me (grog@freebsd.org).
--- Changes: 5 December 1996 ---
Page 192: Middle of the page, the indented small print comment.
Replace with:
If your system doesn't have the directory /usr/src/sys, then the kernel
source has not been installed. To install from the CD-ROM, perform the
following steps:
# mkdir -p /usr/src/sys
# ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys
# cd /
# cat /cdrom/dists/src/sys.* | tar xzvf -
The symbolic link /sys for /usr/src/sys is not strictly
necessary, but it's a good idea: some software uses it, and otherwise you may
end up with two different copies of the sources.
--- Changes: 28 November 1996 ---
Page 135, second paragraph: replace with
In addition, you may need to create the device nodes if they don't
already exist. By default, the system contains four virtual
terminal devices in the /dev directory. If you use more than this
number, you must create them, either with MAKEDEV (see page 162),
or with mknod (see page 573). When calculating how many devices
you need, note that if you intend to run X11, you need a terminal
device without a getty for the X server. For example, if you have
enabled /dev/ttyv3, /dev/ttyv4, and /dev/ttyv5, and you also want
to run X, you will need a total of 7 virtual terminals (/dev/ttyv0
through /dev/ttyv6). With MAKEDEV, you specify how many virtual
terminals you need:
# cd /dev
# ./MAKEDEV vty7 make 7 vtys
Alternatively, you can do this with mknod:
# cd /dev
# ls -l ttyv0
crw------- 1 root wheel 12, 0 Nov 28 10:25 ttyv0
# mknod ttyv3 c 12 3
# mknod ttyv4 c 12 4
# mknod ttyv5 c 12 5
# mknod ttyv6 c 12 6
In this example, you list the entry for /dev/ttyv0 in order to
check the major device number of the virtual terminals (that's the
12, in this example; it may change from one release to another).
You need to specify this number to mknod. For more details about
major and minor device numbers, see page 160.
--- Changes: 20 November 1996 ---
Figure 10-4, page 172: The devices in the FreeBSD slice are called
/dev/sd1s2a through /dev/sd1s2h, not /dev/sd1s3a through /dev/sd1s3h
as shown.
Figure 10-6, page 176: The devices in the FreeBSD slice are *still*
called /dev/sd1s2a through /dev/sd1s2h, not /dev/sd1s1a through
/dev/sd1s1h as shown. (Well, at least the average turned out right :-)
The man page section (pages 225 to 766) was sorted by ASCII name of
the man page, with the result that the man pages whose names start
with upper-case letters come before those whose names start with
lower-case letters. Sorry about that. If you're looking for a man
page, probably the best place to start is in the Table of Contents on
page vi.
The man pages are really just excerpts. The total FreeBSD man pages
format to some 6,000 pages, far more than I could possibly put in this
book.
--- Changes: 1 November 1996 ---
Major changes:
1. No difference in installation from ATAPI CD-ROM drives.
When "The Complete FreeBSD" was written, you still needed a
separate installation procedure for installing from ATAPI CD-ROM
drives. This is no longer the case. The following modifications
to the text come as a result:
Page 14, table: Remove references to atapiflp.bat and
inst_ide.bat. FreeBSD 2.1.5 no longer has separate boot floppies
and installation procedures for ATAPI CD-ROM drives.
Page 29: Remove the text "You will also need a different boot disk
(/cdrom/floppies/atapi.flp). If you are creating the boot floppy
with MS-DOS, you can use the file ATAPIFLP.BAT to create the
floppy." The resultant text reads:
IDE CD-ROM drives, more properly called ATAPI CD-ROM drives,
are a new kind of CD-ROM drive which connect to the same
controller as your IDE hard disk. Currently, FreeBSD 2.1.5
support for ATAPI CD-ROM drives is in alpha test. In order to
install from an ATAPI CD-ROM, the drive must be jumpered as
slave device. The installation may or may not work--please
let us know if it doesn't, especially if you can give us some
indication about the cause of the trouble. You can also
create this boot diskette with the aid of the VIEW program
(see Chapter 4, Installing FreeBSD, page 38).
Page 35: Remove the points referring to atapi.flp. The text for
the third box from the bottom of the page should read:
If the direct boot doesn't work, you will need to make a boot
floppy, which may be either a 3 1/2" or a 5 1/4" diskette.
Create a boot floppy by copying the image /cdrom/boot.flp to
diskette. Refer to Chapter 2, Installing FreeBSD, page 39.
If you have an IDE (ATAPI) CD-ROM drive, see also the section
on this kind of drive in Chapter 2, Installation Concepts,
page 29.
Page 43, after first example: remove references to ATAPI. The
resultant text should read:
Don't try this from MS Windows--the installation will fail
with the message not enough memory. The boot will progress
in the same way as if you had booted from floppy. The
advantage of starting VIEW is that you get more
documentation: ultimately VIEW will start INSTALL to boot the
system.
INSTALL doesn't always work. It depends on what drivers or
TSRs are in your system. There's no reason to try changing
your MS-DOS configuration to get it to work: it's a lot
easier just to boot from floppy (see page 38 for further
information).
2. Changes to section on installing a second disk.
Page 170: The bottom paragraph should read:
When the message Three seconds until format
begins... appears, you can still change your mind by hitting
CTRL-C before the message Formatting... appears. After that,
you can't stop the format: most disks can perform a format by
themselves, so scsiformat just issues the command to format
the disk. Since there is no SCSI bus activity, the disk
activity lamp will also not light up, and since the
scsiformat program will just be waiting and not using any CPU
time, you could easily get the impression the nothing is
going on. The disk format can take a long time--depending on
the disk, up to 90 minutes.
Page 173, after table 10-5: Add the text
If you're unlucky, fdisk will give you a completely different
idea of the disk geometry from what scsiformat did. Possibly
you can decide by examination which program is wrong, or
maybe you can look at the dmesg output for a tie-breaker. In
all cases I have seen, it has been fdisk that returned the
incorrect information, and only when the disk did not have a
valid partition table. For example, this happened with a
disk formatted for BSD/OS:

Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1
Information from DOS bootblock is:

The data for partition 2 is:
sysid 0,(unused)
start 0, size 0 (0 Meg), flag 61
beg: cyl 364/ sector 37/ head 98;
end: cyl 0/ sector 0/ head 0
The data for partition 3 is:
<UNUSED>
Looking at the output from dmesg, we see:
(aha0:1:0): "MICROP 2112-15MQ1094802 HQ48" type 0 fixed SCSI 2
sd1(aha0:1:0): Direct-Access 1001MB (2051615 512 byte sectors)
sd1(aha0:1:0): with 1760 cyls, 15 heads, and an average 77 sectors/track
In this case, then, you should use the parameters 1760
cylinders, 15 heads, and 77 sectors per track. What's less
obvious here is the number of cylinders: fdisk doesn't have
an opinion, and scsiformat and dmesg decided it has 2,051,615
sectors. Unfortunately, if you calculate the number
according to the formula cylinders x heads x sectors, you'll
come up with a different result: in this case 1760 x 15 x 77
= 2,032,800. How come? The disks report the total number of
sectors, including spare tracks and such, but you can't use
them all. The 2,032,800 is the correct number, and if you
try to specify 2,051,615 to disklabel, it will spit out lots
of messages about partitions which go beyond the end of the
disk.
Page 173, middle of page. Change the text after the "no magic"
message to:
The message no magic doesn't mean that fdisk is out of purple
smoke. It refers to the fact that it didn't find the
so-called magic number, which identifies the partition table.
Since we don't have a partition table yet, this message isn't
surprising. It's also completely harmless.
Page 173, last example. Remove the first 22 lines, from
******* Working on device /dev/rsd1 *******
to, but not including the next occurrence of this line.
Page 177, bulleted list: add the bullet
* The total number of sectors in the partition. Calculate
the number from the the formula cylinders x heads x
sectors, even if you are using the whole disk: the output
from dmesg or scsiformat is not correct here.
Page 178, middle of page: after
# disklabel -w -r /dev/sd1c cdc94161
insert
When you do this, expect a kernel message (in high-intensity
display) saying ``Cannot find disk label''. Since there
isn't any label, it can't be found. This is another harmless
chicken and egg problem.
Page 182: In the section "Creating the file systems", add the
first line to the example:
# newfs /dev/rsd1h
Further down the page, the last example should also read
# newfs /dev/rsd1h
3. Other changes
Page 41, after the heading "Installing from an MS-DOS partition".
Add the text:
It's also possible to install from a primary MS-DOS partition
on the first disk. At the moment, it's not possible to
install from extended partitions.
Page 136, bottom: Add the text
If you are changing the root password, be careful: it's easy
enough to lock yourself out of the system if you mess things
up, which could happen if, for example, you mistyped the
password twice in the same way (don't laugh, it happens). If
you're running X, open another window and use su to become
root. If you're running in character mode, select another
virtual terminal and log in as root there. Only when you're
sure you can still access root should you log out.
Page 152, just before the heading "The online manual". Add:
Yes, you really need to run latex three times in order to
build the cross-references.
Page 199, the end of the multipage table is garbled. It should
read:
ze0 214 IBM/National Semiconductor PCMCIA ethernet controller
zp0 214 3Com PCMCIA Etherlink III
Page 205: Change the section titled "lpt0" to:
lpt0 through lpt2 are the three printer ports you could
conceivably have. Most people don't have three printers: you
can comment out the definitions of the printers which you
don't have.
Page 208, bottom of page: swap the italicized headings "Adaptec
274X controller" and "Adaptec 1274X controller"
Many thanks to Paul DuBois and Jerry Dunham for finding many of these
bugs.

Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition
Last revision: 12 August 1998
The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page
or any other online documentation. The result is that most leading edge
computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately,
``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. The
second edition has only just been published, but already a number of bugs and
changes have surfaced.
The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They
relate to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997. If you have this
book, please check this list. If you have the first edition of 19 July 1996,
please check ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1. This same file is also
available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/.
This list is available in four forms:
o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at
ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the book to find
out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this
document: it's closest to the original text.
Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to
reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version.
o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt. When
viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and
underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing.
o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This
version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only
take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure
that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning.
o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html.
All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the
Page 1
The Complete FreeBSD
book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a
bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at <grog@FreeBSD.org.>
General changes
_______________
o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the following command to find
process information:
$ ps aux | grep foo
Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator
upon which it is working. This command usually works fine on a relatively
wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate
exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output.
You can fix that with the w option:
$ ps waux | grep foo

Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add:
In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents
(sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh). With the exception of sh, they are all in the
Ports Collection. I personally use the bash shell.
This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard
shell. The standard BSD shell is the C shell (csh), which has a fuller-
featured descendent tcsh. In particular, the standard installation sets the
root user up with a csh. See page 152 (in this errata) for details of how to
change the shell.

If you're running X, you can use a browser like Mosaic or Netscape to read the
handbook. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. If you don't
have X running, use lynx. To install them, enter:

The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete. Replace the section
starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text:
Alternatively, you can print out the handbook. You need to have the
documentation sources (/usr/doc) installed on your system. You can find them
on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name. To install them, first
mount your CD-ROM (see page 175). Then enter:
$ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook
$ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook you may need to be root for this operation
$ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook
You have a choice of formats for the output:
o ascii will give you plain 7-bit ASCII output, suitable for reading on a
character-mode terminal.
Page 4
Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition
o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser.
o latex will give you LATEX format, suitable for further processing with TEX
and LATEX.
o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing.
o roff will give you output in troff source. You can process this output with
nroff or troff, but it's currently not very polished. LATEX output is a
better choice if you want to process it further.
Once you have decided your format, use make to create the document. For
example, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter:
$ make FORMATS=ps
This creates a file handbook.ps which you can then print to a PostScript
printer or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222).

The floppy set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start
with bin. followed by two letters. These other files are all 240640 bytes
long, except for the final one which is usually shorter. Use the MS-DOS COPY
program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until you've
got all the distributions you want packed up in this fashion. Copy each
distribution into subdirectory corresponding to the base name--for example,
copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on.

all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both.
If you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver

the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three
files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed
when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be
executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the
corresponding individual files.

In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting
environment variables at a global level.
Changing your shell
___________________
The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional
Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is
very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of
the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay
with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The
latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing.
See page 148 for details of how to enable it.
You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection.
You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash,
also in the Ports Collection.
If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a
more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts
your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's
an example before:
#Changing user database information for velte.
Shell: /bin/csh
Full Name: Jack Velte
Location:
Office Phone:
Home Phone:
You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this
to:
#Changing user database information for velte.
Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash
Full Name: Jack Velte
Location: On the road
Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999
Home Phone:
chsh checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and
exit the editor. The next time you log in, you get the new shell. chsh tries
to ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the
name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a very
Page 9
Install ports when installing the system
good idea to check the shell before logging out. You can try this with su,
which you normally use to become super user:
bumble# su velte
Password:
su-2.00$ note the new prompt
There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell:
o The shell for root must be on the root file system, otherwise it will not
work in single user mode. Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell
in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is almost never on the root file
system.
o Most shells are dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files
such as /usr/lib/libc.a. These files are not available in single user mode,
so the shells won't work. You can solve this problem by creating statically
linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond
the scope of this book.
If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps
to install it:
o Copy the shell to /bin, for example:
# cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin
o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells, in this example the line in bold
print:
# List of acceptable shells for chpass(1).
# Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using
# one of these shells.
/bin/sh
/bin/csh
/bin/bash
You can then change the shell for root as described above.

The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the
root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this
point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for
more details of what you can enter at this prompt.

________
Add the following paragraph
Unmounting file systems
When you mount a file system, the system assumes it is going to stay there, and
in the interests of efficiency it delays writing data back to the file system.
This is the same effect we discussed on page 158. As a result, if you want to
stop using a file system, you need to tell the system about it. You do this
with the umount command. Note the spelling--there's no n in the command name.
You need to do this even with read-only media such as CD-ROMs: the system
assumes it can access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite
unhappy if it can't. Where possible, it locks removable media so that you
can't remove them from the device until you unmount them.
Using umount is straightforward: just tell it what to unmount, either the
device name or the directory name. For example, to unmount the CD-ROM we
mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands:
# umount /dev/cd1a
# umount /cd1
Before unmounting a file system, umount checks that nobody is using it. If
somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like umount:
/cd1: Device busy. This message often occurs because you have changed your
directory to a directory on the file system you want to remove. For example
(which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt):
Page 11
Install ports when installing the system
=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1
umount: /cd1: Device busy
=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd
=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1
=== root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 ->

The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and
/dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use

want a rewinding tape.

Replace the paragraph Berkeley Packet Filter with:
pseudo-device bpfilter
______________________
The Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) allows you to capture packets crossing a
network interface to disk or to examine them with the tcpdump program. Note
that this capability represents a significant compromise of network security.
The number after bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes that can use
the facility. Not all network interfaces support bpf.
In order to use the Berkeley Packet Filter, you must also create the device
nodes /dev/bpf0 to /dev/bpf3 (if you're using the default number 4). Current-
ly, MAKEDEV doesn't help much--you need to create each device separately:
# cd /dev
# ./MAKEDEV bpf0

o In CHS mode, if bits 11 to 8 are not equal to 0, they specify the number of
heads to assume (between 1 and 15). The driver recalculates the number of
cylinders to make up the total size of the disk.

______________________________________
Add a third point to what you need to know:
3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the
checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates.
This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug
in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was
introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10
December 1997".
Page 285, after the second example.
___________________________________
Add the text:
If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems

One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux binaries is
that they usually contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries.
They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries. That's not really a

problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 2.2.7 understands
is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format as well,
and of course that's the default. If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on
such a system, you must brand the executable using the program brandelf. For
example, to brand the StarOffice program swriter3, you would enter:
# brandelf -t linux /usr/local/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3

Replace the text above the example with:
tcpdump is a program which monitors a network interface and displays selected
information which passes through it. It uses the Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf),
an optional component of the kernel. It is not included in the GENERIC kernel:
see page 257 for information on how to configure it.
If you don't configure the Berkeley Packet Filter, you will get a message like
tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: device not configured
If you forget to create the devices for bpf, you will get a message like:
tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: No such file or directory
Since tcpdump poses a potential security problem, you must be root in order to
run it. The simplest way to run it is without any parameters. This will cause
tcpdump to monitor and display all traffic on the first active network
interface, normally Ethernet:

The description at the top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address
instead of Ethernet address. In addition, a page number reference is
incorrect. Replace the paragraph with:
o Line 1 shows an ARP request: system presto is looking for the Ethernet
address of wait. It would appear that wait is currently not responding,
since there is no reply.
o Line 2 is not an IP message at all. tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and
the beginning of the packet. We don't consider this kind of request in this

book.
o Line 3 is a broadcast ntp message. We looked at ntp on page 160.
o Line 4 is another attempt by presto to find the IP address of wait.
o Line 5 is a broadcast message from bumble on the rwho port, giving
information about its current load averages and how long it has been up. See
the man page for rwho on page 1167 for more information.
o Line 6 is from a TCP connection between port 6000 on freebie and port 1089 on
presto. It is sending 384 bytes (with the sequence numbers 536925467 to
536925851; see page 305), and is acknowledging that the last byte it received
from presto had the sequence number 325114346. The window size is 17280.
o Line 7 is another ARP request. presto is looking for the Ethernet address of
freebie. How can that happen? We've just seen that they have a TCP
connection. In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes. It's quite
possible that all connections between presto and freebie have been dormant
for this period, so presto needs to find freebie's IP address again.
o Line 8 is the ARP reply from freebie to presto giving its Ethernet address.
o Line 9 shows a reply from presto on the connection to freebie that we saw on
line 6. It acknowledges the data up to sequence number 536925851, but
doesn't send any itself.
o Line 10 shows another 448 bytes of data from freebie to presto, and
acknowledging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6.

Add another bullet:
o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your

this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly
convenient if you send your mail with UUCP.
To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find
Page 18
Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition
the following line in sendmail.cf:

Change it to:

The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd.
This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the
file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the
directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble.

Replace the last paragraph on the page with:
socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very
important: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and
establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options
TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such
applications by over 95%.

The description of /etc/hosts.lpd erroneously refers to the file /etc/ftpusers.
This should be /etc/hosts.lpd, of course.

How to get the best results from FreeBSD questions.
===================================================
Last update 23 February 1998
This is a regular posting to the FreeBSD questions mailing list. If
you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender
thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your
message:
- You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate.
- You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read.
- You asked more than one unrelated question in one message.
- You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone.
- You sent out the same message more than once.
- You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions.
If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you
will get more than one copy of this message from different people.
Read on, and your next message will be more successful.

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

The easiest way to configure X is to run XF86Setup from the /usr/X11R6/bin
directory.
IE:
(case SeNSiTiVe!!!)
cd /usr/X11R6/bin
./XF86Setup
and fill out everything you can and save the configuration.

i'm not sure what the default permissions are, so it's a good idea to

You probably need a "null modem" adapter.

Ok, I've finally gotten PPP to work, Windows95 and another FreeBSD
machine to both see my modem server. Now, my problem is that PPP
connectivity itself is not stable. I'm using ppp -auto -alias -ISP to
connect. PPP will hang up after ten minutes, then soon afterwards, redial!
Sometimes though, it seems it will sit for 30 minutes or so before it
redials, even with no network activity, beyond the other two computers
sitting, turned on. At other times, when ppp is not connected, it will not
detect network traffic at all. I actually end up restarting the connected
FreeBSD machine, when it starts to load the natp (? The thing that checks
the time off of local time-servers.) then PPP dials, and everything works
great. I'm running 2.2.6 on both FreeBSD machines, Pentium computers all
around, Kingston net cards using the de0 driver on the FreeBSD machines,
an Intel etherexpress on the 95 machine, and put in a new hub and cables
last night as one of the old BNC cables was damaged. Is there anything in
the setup that is generating network traffic? Sendmail is loading on both
computers, I removed the time check from the computer. On the same token,
what could be going on to keep PPP from detecting network traffic and
initiating a connection?

Subject: NIS client setup ??
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG

X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG
Hi,
I've been trying to setup an NIS client under FreeBSD 2.2.6
but unsuccessful, well kind of. It seems like every thing
works, meaning :
# ypwhich
gives the NIS servers name
# rpcinfo -p
gives
program vers proto port
100000 2 tcp 111 portmapper
100000 2 udp 111 portmapper
100005 3 udp 1012 mountd
100005 3 tcp 1022 mountd
100005 1 udp 1012 mountd
100005 1 tcp 1022 mountd
100003 2 udp 2049 nfs
100003 3 udp 2049 nfs
100003 2 tcp 2049 nfs
100003 3 tcp 2049 nfs
100024 1 udp 1000 status
100024 1 tcp 1021 status
100007 2 udp 898 ypbind
100007 2 tcp 1019 ypbind
# ypcat passwd
gives the password file from the NIS server
# ypcat hosts
gives the hosts file on from the NIS server
I can finger other users on the network too but I just
cannot seem to login as a network user. We have two Digital
Unix machines acting as the NIS primary and backup servers,
several SCO and linux boxes acting as NIS clients without
any problems. Our unix "guru" gave up too saying that it has
do with the login process cause everything else looks OK.
Please HELP !!
Also, we are planning on cutting over to FreeBSD replacing
all of the linux boxes if NFS performance proves to be
better than Linux's. Do you know what implementation of NFS,
FreeBSD uses ?
Thank you so much in advance
Russell

The modem is now on cuaa1 (result of testing :)

Both sio0 and sio1 are detected as 16550A's at boot-time. As for an
external modem or mouse, I don't know. I'd have to (gasp) turn it off
to change the 25-pin serial with the 9-pin serial to test a mouse.

I can run that, and it accepts input (when a getty isn't running) but
nothing displays on the terminal.

Nothin. You think I have a bad cable or something like that?

Default permissions are 022, unless you've changed your umask.

Instead of the DEC cable that I've got now? I wonder if it is meant
to connect a VT to a hub of some sort, which then would go back to a
server. Then I'd need to switch some wires in the cable.
Are there any DEC experts in the house? VAX people, maybe?

identd -w -t120 -l
should do it, it's in identd(8).

I have wired more serial devices than I can remember. If you are able
to build your own adapter, between a pair of DB25 connectors cross 2 &
3, 4 & 5, and connect 6, 8 & 20 together on either side. This is a
"terminal null modem". Keeping 6, 8 & 20 together on either side means
that power-cycling the terminal won't kick you off. You may want to do
this eg. if you want to save power/heat etc.

Mine doesn't.
I have it set at 9600/8/N/1, with "VT100 Mode" and a
"VT220 ID". /etc/ttys has it set as a vt220
(it's actually on an OpenBSD machine now, but the
setup is the same...)
ask (privately) if you want the gory details.

Heh. Of course I assumed that you would remember to connect 7 straight
through, but then it occurred to me that you might not.

My bet is that you need a null-modem cable (or adaptor); my
subsequent message suggested that, and I've seen two other folks
offer the same advice.
I have a spare adaptor; you should have come up with this problem
before moving three timezones away from me!

Somebody's messing with you.
I bet a script kid got in between 23:04 and 23:10, installed a bogus
root kit, and tried to login as r00t. This is a common h4x0r misspelling.
time for an audit.

It's a limitation of 1970's design. See what the help section of
the label editor in sysinstall has to say about IBM not thinking
people would ever need more then 1024 cylinders. It also describes
how to find the real (non-BIOS) geometry so you can get past this.

That's a pretty good indication that your BIOS supports booting
beyond the 504 MB limit. There are other limits, though (1 GB, 2 GB,
4 GB, 8 GB; for some reason, they missed the opportunity with 16 GB).
The only way I know to find out if you're affected by one of these is
to try it.

The traditional BSD tool is ktrace. FreeBSD also supplies an
implementation of truss.

"Stampede Linux binaries are compiled with PGCC, a variation of EGCS
with optimizations for Pentium class chips. it is 100% compatable with
i486/i386, as well as all the pentium variants and their clones. So, the
answer is yes. On a side note, with PGCC you should see a performance
gain of 5%-30% with any pentium class chip."
What I dont understand is if it's the OS who is compiled with PGCC or
only the application.
I would like to know if it can be used on FreeBSD and if anyone ever
tryed. On the PGCC page, they say it work on FreeBSD.

> ==============================================
>
> When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message

> told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message:
>
> Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list!
>
> If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list,
> you can send mail to "Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG" with the following command

>
> FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions
> This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not
> send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the
> question to be pretty technical.
>
> Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you
> don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one

> If the question relates to enhancements to FreeBSD, and you can

> =============================

Who will read that message! I respect your great work but who will read
that long boring message for a so little subject.
I propose you
http://www.aei.ca/~malartre/how-to-ask-en.html
http://www.aei.ca/~malartre/how-to-ask-fr.html
Sure, it's not complete but the model is there: short explanation for a
short subject. It lack of explanation about how to reply and other
mailing-list, also about how to subscribe unsubscribe, but it's kinda ok
I think. I haved great support from a lot of people and the english on
it is near-perfect (wow!) :-)
What do you think?
I want to know who readed that message from top to bottom.

any one heard of combining the srm.conf and access.conf files into the
httpd.conf

Doesn't really matter; FreeBSD doesn't use /etc/passwd at all. It's
only for oddball 3rd-party programs that don't use getpw*().
All your config info looks okay to me. Can you do a "ypmatch <nisuser>
passwd.byname" ? It should return the passwd line for that user. If
that works, see if an "id <nisuser>" works. Make sure your "+" line in
vipw doesn't have leading or trailing blanks; a trailing blank will be
parsed as an invalid shell (preventing logins).
I've got NIS clients on a couple 2.2.7 machines listening to a Netware
4.11 NIS server without any problems.
You might want to try tcpdumping packets, to see if the BSD box is even
sending out NIS queries.

What implementation? Not sure what you mean. It's all in-kernel and
supports TCP and UDP mounts. As to performance and stability, you
might want to check the thread raging in the -hackers list titled
"Linux vs FreeBSD (performances)" :) I personally can't complain about
the NFS implementation; at work we can just about saturate a 100mbit
full-duplex Ethernet link between two 2.2.7 machines during large file
copies over NFS, and we haven't had any NFS-related hangs in over 6
months.

you need to install a snoop device into your kernel make file
and rebuild the kernel.
something like
pseudo-device snp1

I have had some trouble with page faults myself. I have an IBM P200 L
CPU and a Triton VX MB. The page faults appear to have gone away since
reducing the bus speed from 75MHz to 66MHz (and jacking up the CPU
core freq multiplier accordingly). I believe the SDRAM I'm using is
unreliable at bus speeds higher than 66MHz.
Try giving this a go.

Obtain a login as an ordinary user, then exploit a local way
of getting root.
A failed attempt to login locally, like "login" or "telnet localhost",
might generate such error messages.
I'd look for activity in all system logs around the time in question,
and inspect the password database for alterations.
Of course, such messages can be faked, too.

cam, current, xfree
on my other systems, when i use less or more or vi or ..., and then
quit, the screen is restored. in my freebsd world, it is left with
the less/more/vi/whatever display over the screen. i want to fix
that.
my memory was a termcap, but i stole bsdi's xterm termcap, and same
effect. i stole termcaps from net.friends. i made sure ti and te
were defined.
the same xserver works going to other systems. this happens if the
xserver is local or on another host. it is purely when the xterm
client is on the freebsd machine.
any clues

This error message comes from the open_snp() function when
it can't open /dev/snp0, /dev/snp1, ..., /dev/snp9. Try
cd /dev
./MAKEDEV snp0
I assume that you are running a kernel built with something
similar to
pseudo-device snp 10

To all those more knowledgeable than myself:
Please feel free to flame thehell out of me if I am being stupid. It is
late, and I've had no luck finding anything relating to this in the FAQ
or list archives.
Error messages will follow. I have installed tcp_wrappers port and
rsaref and am running the latest and greatest incarnation of perl5. I
have even tried gmake, obviously with even less incouraging results.
Here are the error messages at which make balks:

Hello. I posted a problem some time ago, when I was not on the list. I
received no replies, and my problem is still not solved. I tried to serach
the archives as well, but I could not find any answers. Please help me. I'm
on the list now.
I've set up a FreeBSD 2.2.5 server. Everything is OK, except for one
thing: Dial-in. A user dials-in from a win 95 box, gets a terminal screen,
logs in and gets the $ prompt from sh. They then type:
exec /usr/sbin/ppp -direct dialin (the dialin section from the ppp.conf
file is as follows):
dialin:
ifaddr 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.2
set timeout 120
I've enabled a tty on port ttyd1 in my /etc/ttys file.
So they are able to establish a PPP session to my server. Then after
checking their mail, they disconnect. This is where the problem comes up.
Sometimes, the PPP process on the server will die, and the port will be
ready to accept another connection. Sometimes, however, it does not die,
and if the next user tries to connect, they can't. I have to manually kill
-HUP the PPP process. Initially, I thought it may be because the modem was
not setting the CD low for long enough. So I changed modem settings to
leave the CD on all the time, and take it low during disconnect. I set it
such that it would hold the CD low for 10 seconds. This seemed to help,
because now the PPP process died properly on remote disconnect, but only
the first few times. Then, after 4 tries, the same thing was happening. I
am now at a loss to understand what's going on. The modem is a Multitech
MT1432. I used the following string to setup the modem:
at&f&c2s0=1s17=100s24=100&w0
s0=1 to auto-answer
s17 and s24 for the long space disconnect (hold the CD down for 10 seconds)
&c2 for leaving the CD on all the time, and only to go low on disconnect.
I tried the default settings to start with, (except s0=1), but that was
bad. With the additional settings, it seems to have helped, but it won't
do, because I am away from the server most of the time, so it has to work
unsupervised mostly.
As an aside: If I have more than one modem attached to the COM ports on my
computer, how can I have PPP assign dynamic private IP's to dial-in users?
The above configuration I have gives only one IP to the remote side.
Thanks.

Considering the incredible waste of disk ressources by trees like
ports/, and other mainly dormant source directories,
is there any way to use the virtual filesystem feature, with a .zip file
instead of an uncompressed one, to just mount
it when needed (mount_zip ports.zip /ports) and enjoy the very fast
direct access to any file or directory ?
It is done (in applications in some, may be at kernel level in others)
with big success in other OS'es.
The JavaPC does it right, for .zip and .jar files.
If I am not mistaken, the zip uncompress is already in the kernel, right
?

Does anybody have made the support for UltraDMA 33 available in 2.2.7 ?
(I will not switch to 3.0 for quite some time...)
Or, anybody with some recipe to add this support to the 2.2 kernel ? (I
have the 3.0 current source tree)
Patches ?

nothing happens.
Do I have to point anonymous to a specific directory?
Thanks Alot

Dear sir,
Recently the FreeBSD become to a popular OS in PC.
I want to use it to implement my networking device driver.
Now I meet a question that is I do not know how to write networking
device
driver in FreeBSD.
I use WWW to this site and I found the tutorial of the writing device
driver, but
I think that page is for advanced pepole.
I just a beginner and I have a few resource and information here.
Could you tell me how to writing device driver in FreeBSD or where I can
find
information or reference book?
Thank you for your kind help.
Wang Tai-Ping.

Hi.
I had a problem with my Matsushita/Panasonic 5.63 drive, when I tried to
upgrade from 2.2.5 to 2.2.6:
during the upgrade the installatin program gave me error number 5:
input/output error. Well that's already history; since that I have
Installed 2.2.6 from my dos drive.
The Problem at the moment:
When mounting : mount_cd9660 /dev/matcd0c /cdrom
fbsd gives an error message: Matcd0: Illegal data mode for this track
while reading block 64
When mounting: mount_cd9660 /dev/matcd0a /cdrom
I can mount the disk, I can read it fine, but when i try to add_pkg
something, it won't find everything, it reports that some packets are
missing.
My cdrom drive is connected to GUS MAX, port 0x340. (mat 5.63)
I also tried my Sound Galaxy Nova 16, port 630. No hope.
I also tried a Matsushita/Panasonic 5.62. With both the soundcards. No
hope. Everything works perfectly in w95. I also tried another fbsd 2.2.6
release 4 cd pack, that was tested and it worked fine on my friends
computer. So is the support for Matcd 5.63 and 5.62 somehow broken, and
is it already fixed in 2.2.7?
I hope you reply to my address too.

Nevermind. Found it in the mailing list archives. Have already tested it out,
and it works great! Wish I'd known about this a lot sooner! :-)
Thanks again.

Good day!
I have troubles with installation CD-RW RICOH MP 6200S under
FreeBSD 2.2.6-STABLE and cdrecord 1.6 from ports collection.
My main problem is I can't get cdrecord working, but not only it.

My SCSI host is Adaptec AHA-1540CF, BIOS 2.11, firmware F.0.
First thing, what I noticed right after installing CD-RW, is when
system booting, at the time of hardware initialization of the
SCSI host, the light on the front panel of CD-RW begans to blink
by green and red colors what indicates hardware trouble as it written
in manual. This blinking continues until first disk insertion, after
that all seems Ok, I can mount inserted disk and read it. But when
I do reading of large amount of data, e.g.
tar cvf /dev/null /mnt/cdrom2/*
then new failure appeared. After some time of reading process I see
at the terminal messages like this:
mnt/cdrom2/XF8633/X33set.tgz
mnt/cdrom2/XF8633/X33SVGA.tgz

tar: read error at byte 0, reading 6656 bytes, in file
/mnt/cdrom2/XF8633/X33VG16.tgz : Input/output error
at this time in the system log writtens messages like this:

after it drive became unaccessable until next mount. When i run
cdrecord:
cdrecord -checkdrive
then I get:

if there no disk in drive, or (if disk present in drive):
Cdrecord release 1.6 Copyright (C) 1995-1998 Jörg Schilling
scsidev: '0,1,0'
scsibus: 0 target: 1 lun: 0
after that cdrecord completely frozen and blocks any access to
all SCSI devices. Only reboot our exit to another world ;-)
At the time of cdrecord access to drive in system log appeared
four new messages:
Aug 22 19:42:55 halfwasp /kernel: biodone: buffer already done
That is all what I can tell right now. Only one what I can imagine
is my RICOH is malfunctioned. Am I right?
Any help would be appreciated.

Look where it is /usr/share/___syscons__/keymaps/...
This is for the console! (or at least the sc0 or vt0 driver)...

how about putting a plain 'a in there? ;)

indeed it is! It uses keymaps.
Check this one:
http://pages.risq.qc.ca/htran/Xmodmap
It's one a friend submitted to me yesterday... I haven't tried it, and I
don't know if it's using the alt key...
You can load it using:
xmodmap Xmodmap
! simple enough? ;)

The main problem is that I can't do this with X window. It doesn't seem to
know ALT! At least, I don't know how to use it...
I don't understand the syntax of the modmaps:
keycode 32 = o O ocircumflex Ocircumflex
keycode: 32 # that's ok I understand
=
o # ok, o w/o nothing
O # ok, shift-o
ocircumflex # this I don't know! What modifiers does it use?
Ocircumflex # how can I know????
Thanks for any input!

Hi,
I now this is probably a stupid questions but how do you get nameserver
adresses.
Do you register them the same way you do a domain name?
Thanks Alot

I don't know apache 126, I use 130... But httpd.conf is readed first, and
in mine I have 2 directives: AccessConfig and ResourceConfig
This is the manual:
-------------------------------------------
AccessConfig directive
Syntax: AccessConfig filename
Default: AccessConfig conf/access.conf
Context: server config, virtual host
Status: core
The server will read this file for more directives after reading the
ResourceConfig file. Filename is relative to the ServerRoot. This feature
can be disabled using:
AccessConfig /dev/null
Historically, this file only contained <Directory> sections; in fact it
can now contain any server directive allowed in the server config
context.
ResourceConfig directive
Syntax: ResourceConfig filename
Default: ResourceConfig conf/srm.conf
Context: server config, virtual host
Status: core
The server will read this file for more directives after reading the
httpd.conf file. Filename is relative to the ServerRoot. This feature can
be disabled using:
ResourceConfig /dev/null
Historically, this file contained most directives except for server
configuration directives and <Directory> sections; in fact it can now
contain any server directive allowed in the server config context.
See also AccessConfig.
-------------------------------------------------------
So I think that all you need to do is to replace whatever ResourceConfig
and AccessConfig entries by this:
ResourceConfig /dev/null
AccessConfig /dev/null
It will then read only httpd.conf.
But don't forget to:
cat access.conf >> httpd.conf
cat srm.conf >> httpd.conf
!!!
Or all that was in the 2 files will not be read!!!

well, i recently upgraded to freebsd 2.2.7, i grabbed all my old ppp.conf
stuff, ran ppp, ppp started ok, and did all of nothing. didn't dial or
anything, i have to run ppp manually for anything to happen, wondering if
you guys have any ideas for me, i've included a copy of ppp.conf, and yes
normally my username and passwords are in them, but not in this copy......

well, seems you do not either 1) have the worm (write once removable
media?) driver in your kernel.... OR the CD-RW is not supported (like my
Smart and Friendly) see, the part where it sees cd0 should instead see
worm0.....

Hi!
none of my users can change their passwords.
That's frustrating.
Here's an example:
phil@outpost [12:40pm] ~> passwd
realm NADA.ORG
Old password for phil:
Kerberos error: Retry count exceeded (send_to_kdc)
phil@outpost [12:40pm] ~> passwd -l
Changing local password for phil.
Old password:
New password:
Retype new password:
passwd: /etc/master.passwd: corrupted entry
passwd: /etc/master.passwd: unchanged
phil@outpost [12:41pm] ~>
I tried to run vipw:
# vipw
[...]
"/etc/pw.ar4202" 30 lines, 1439 characters
vipw: rebuilding the database...
vipw: done
#
But it doesn't work!
Help me please!
Spidey

Create a user named ftp
ftp:*:14:5::0:0:Anonymous FTP Admin:/var/ftp:/nonexistent
You've already done that, no doubt. The directory you're looking
at is ftp's home dir, /var/ftp. A local ftp session should look like:
[listread@castor listread]$ ftp localhost
Connected to localhost.
220 castor.loco.net FTP server (Version 6.00) ready.

Trivial. cat all three files into one, making it the new httpd.conf, then
add these two lines to the top of the file.

Hello,
Firstly I would like to thank the list for the overwhelming support
for my question on how to make an empty file. That touch command works
great. Thank you!!
How can I make the host part of say www.blah.com point to one
thing and have say you.blah.com...like netscape has home.netscape.com and
www.netscape.com
How is this achieved.
Thanks,
Lanny

Subject: FreeBSD-2.2.6 hangs with user ppp
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk
X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG
I am trying to configure user ppp on a FreeBSD-2.2.6 box. Here is a
transcript of what happens when I issue the ppp command as root.
# ppp
Working in interactive mode
Then there is a prompt just waiting. I can type things, but there is no
response from the system. I can get out of this with a control-C.
Here is some more information that may or may not tell you what I'm doing
wrong.
# ls -al /dev/tun*
crw------- 1 uucp dailer 52, 0 Aug 22 01:42 /dev/tun0
# ls -al /dev/cuaa1
crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 129 Aug 22 01:27 /dev/cuaa1
# cat /etc/ppp/ppp.conf

set device /dev/cuaa1
set ifaddr 0 0
set timeout 0
set ISP:
set phone 1234567
set login "TIMEOUT 5 login:-\\r-login: id word: password"
set ifaddr 0 0
add 0 0 HISADDR
I have "psuedo-device tun 1" in my kernel.
I have an internal 3COM 56K faxmodem on COM2, IRQ3. During the boot
sequence, the system tells me it finds sio1.
I have tried to configure this with kernel ppp, but had no luck there, either.
Any help would be muchly appreciated!

I'm trying to get alt-tab and alt-shift-tab to f.warpring "next" and
"prev" in CTWM. I've got alt-tab working, but alt-shift-tab doesn't.
Could someone point out the big obvious mistake hanging in front of my
nose? Here's the relevant lines in my .ctwmrc:
"Tab" = meta : all : f.warpring "next"
"Tab" = meta | shift : all : f.warpring "prev"
Please cc: me in any replies, as I'm not on the list. (Too many mailing
lists)

Hello!
English is foreign to me so I came up with the question.
There is a game called pig with a small source and a somewhat
comprehensive manual page. But _I_ still don't get what is it ;-)
Please tell me what is the purpose and how I am to use this
advanced utility. Who is the author? What made him to produce it?
Thanks in advance.
Best wishes,
Oles Hnatkevych, http://gnut.kiev.ua

Hello, how are you?
i tried installing the fvwm-95 package off of the 2.2.5 cdrom using
pkg_add, but after i rebooted the system and tried to run it, i could
not find any files relating to fvwm-95 on my system. Next i tried to
install fvwm-2.xxxx on the system using the -vM flags and pkg_add, and i
still could not find the files which were supposedly added to the
system...
am i doing something wrong here?
pls let me know

Hi,
You seems to have trouble in your EIDE drive.
There are so many mails in here and there.
But, I will restated some prescription here.
(I am sorry being so late to respond you , I am not so good at english,
and cannot read and write ml everyday.)

This statement was generated in /usr/src/sys/vm/swap_pager.c.
One process was accessing disk, and at that time, disk I/O error
occurred. After that, swap_pager want to access disk, but cannot
perform disk access, and doing nothing but waiting,
and the system hangged up.

When EIDE disk sectors were broken, these error messages often appear.
In this case, your disk sectors must be broken, and your wd driver
is mal-functioning.
The prescription is already known.
In order to handle bad secters, and as you cannot pass fsck,
once you should start system in single-user mode (boot(8)) and reboot.
Reboot will set clean flag in superblock, so you can mount file system again.
Next boot should start at single-user mode,
and mount / /usr /var read-only.
you should use
bad144(8) (scan mode is recomended),
or badsect(8) and fsck.
At this time, you had better use /usr/sbin/bad144 for scan mode.
And reboot the system again.
Of course you should read on-line manual very carefully.
Now the kernel source code.
After rebooting, You have to search /usr/src/sys/i386/isa/wd.c
for lines such as,
du->dk_timeout = 1 + 3;
and increase the value 1 + 3.
And compile and install kernel again.
In doing so, it would be helpful to install kernel debugger ddb(4) to
your kernel. When system hangs while fsck or bad144,
you can invoke kernel from system console by typing Cntrl-Alt-Esc.
And by this operation, you can avoid further bad blocks.
Please see to it that X ignores this keys.
And after the seeking sound of disk stops, type "continue", this
will make timeouts function forcibly, and several attempts will
recover system.
If system fails to recover, type "panic" to ddb prompt.
This will reboot system rather safely.
* Auto reboot for a panic can be installed with ddb.
There are several fine idea that the failure of the EIDE disk
is caused by the heat or the unstable power supply.

You don't need to reboot the system after such trivial changes. In fact,
you almost never need to reboot the system. Toss that Windows idea out
the... well, you know.
The executables should be in /usr/X11R6/bin. Assorted support files may
be in /usr/X11R6/etc or /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fvwm95 or possibly
/usr/local/lib/X11/fvwm95 (depending on how that package was packaged).
You'll want to add /usr/X11R6/bin to your search path, if it's not
already there.
Good luck!

IRC will probably do what you want. There are several ircd's in the
ports collection.
Good luck,

This patch does work, currently using it on a 2.2.6 box. However,
2.2.7 supports fat32 out of the box.

Yes, I think that your CDRW/SCSI hardware setup is messed up. Check the
cables carefully -- you might try a known good cable, and also check if other
SCSI devices will work properly on this adaptor (it looks like a disk is on
it, so I assume that's working ok :)). Have you terminated the SCSI bus
correctly after adding the CDRW? I use cdrecord on 2.2.6-STABLE with an NCR
PCI SCSI adaptor and the Ricoh MP6200S, and it works with no errors, even for
disk-sized (650Mb) transfers. When I power up my CDRW led flashes orange,
then turns green and stays that way. I also get more probe info from my CDRW
than you do:
[...]
ncr0 <ncr 53c810a fast10 scsi> rev 18 int a irq 11 on pci0:11:0
ncr0 waiting for scsi devices to settle
(ncr0:1:0): "RICOH MP6201S 2.03" type 5 removable SCSI 2
cd0(ncr0:1:0): CD-ROM cd present [111623 x 2048 byte records]
[...]
This all points to a hardware problem on your system. If all else fails I'd
try exchanging the CDRW unit.
Good luck!

I don't know why people keep trying to scare users away from this. I
have used 16 char usernames in -Stable for a year now, and it works just
fine. Here is my standard response, hope it helps.

You will need to change a couple files and use "make world" to
recompile the system for the larger usernames. Any third party utilities
that use usernames like ssh or xterm will also have to be recompiled
after the make world is done.
In /usr/src/sys/sys/param.h:
change MAXLOGNAME to 18
In /usr/src/include/utmp.h:
change UT_NAMESIZE to 16
If you need help with the make world, take a look at
http://www.freebsd.org/docs.html and click on the Upgrading FreeBSD from
source (using make world) tutorial. After you're done with this some
utilities like adduser will have to be modified by hand to support the
long usernames, but we're working on making these fewer and farther
between as time goes on. :)

You will also have to edit /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc to start the window

It translates stdin to Pig Latin, a sort of toy language based on English.
I don't know who made it, but why he did is probably explained by

This message is filled with terminology which may not be correct. I'm not
sure what's a device or a controller or an interface. Please correct when
I've gone wrong. <thanks>
I have a IDE card contains two IDE interfaces (i.e. you can attach two IDE
cables to it). One is marked IDE/VLB, the other IDE/ISA. I've been
running wd0 and wcd0 using IDE/ISA.
I'm trying to add a new disk to this system. I tried adding wdc1 to the
kernel, but that just makes things freeze. Then I had a thought: what
about making wd1 refer to wdco drive 2? That's compiling now.
But in the mean time, can anyone point me in the right direction? Should
I be added a new IDE controller or just a disk to my kernel?
cheers.

When I try to install the package nas-1.2.5, pkg_add tells me it's
already installed, but pkg_delete tells me it's not installed yet.
How can that be? This system has only had a few packages installed and
I haven't deleted any files or done anything strange.

It was only my typing finger that was only half installed.

i have an epson stylus printer shared on a win 95 machine that i need to
redirect all prints from the freebsd machine to.
the share name is \\mugsy\epson in win95
how do i set the freebsd machine to send its prints to this printer
over the network?
what would the /etc/printcap file look like...
i am unfamiliar with the syntax of the printcap file.

If you mean splitting an existing DOS partition, fips works quite well.
The newest version, 1.5, will split FAT32 drives.

Use 'top' and see which command is sucking all the CPU.
I assume this is under FreeBSD; you didn't mention a version.
This is not a Win98 support list, btw :)

The secondary IRQ for yoru SB16 may be conflicting with another device, or
isn't getting configured by the Pnp BIOS. Check the setting with
DIAGNOSE.EXE if you can, and check your BIOS's setting so that 'PnP OS' is
set to 'No'.

Not very. UNIXWare is straight SystemV and FreeBSD is BSD, two different

mount /cdrom
cd /cdrom/bin
./install.sh
This basically reinstalls the base system, so all manner of nutty things
could happen.

Okay, how about 'id $user'? 'echo $user'? Perhaps this stems from your

It was a serious suggestion. ssh is much more secure (entire session is
encrypted) and easier to set up than rsh. At that point it works in the
same way. There is a 'scp' application taht works like rcp but securely.

FYI, Ethernet celebrated it's 25th birthday last May, so be careful about
what you're calling 'outdated'. :-)
TR is still used in many offices (particularly IBM camps).

Nope, none that's distributed with the system, but I've sen those scripts
and they are _ugly_, so I'm glad I have a file to hack instead of one of
those silly scripts that don't let you back up.

Did it report a reason? Try doing
/dev/MAKEDEV apm
the 'all' target doesn't build apm. Also, don't get too happy with
'MAKEDEV all', in older versions it would basically kill the system by
deleting device nodes for disks you were using.

This is your problem. In 2.2.6 and later, the compatibility partition was
removed, so /dev/wd0a no longer works. You must specify slices for the
disks, like:
/dev/wd0s2a / ufs rw 1 1
/dev/wd0s2g /usr ufs ro 1 1
/dev/wd0s2f /var ufs rw 1 1
/dev/wd0s2b none swap sw 0 0
You get the idea (substute 2 for the slice your FreeBSD partition is on).
This is in the release notes for 2.2.6 and 2.2.7, and would have been
fixed by sysinstal if you upgraded that way.

I've just installed 3.0 from a May 24 Snapshot CD. I want to use CAM, so I
need to upgrade to the July 16 snapshot before applying the CAM diff. Is
this upgrade between snapshot releases available by FTP? (as the 3.0 machine
doesn't have a net connection or much free disk. I could just FTP the whole
CAM tree but I'd rather just get the changes.)

Unless he has a very good reason for making that the default for all
of the users on the system, he should copy that file to ~/.xinitrc
and make changes there.
Granted, lots of new FreeBSD users don't have a "user population"
to support, but it is good to teach good habits from the beginning!
Likewise, people should learn to change their window manager without
being root.

Hi, I just got the okay from my ISP for a 6 host subnet to use for my LAN,
but I seem to be havinging a hard time understanding how to implament it.
I currently connect using ppp0 on FreeBS. I think have my FreeBSD box
plugged into the "Uplink" port on my hub, which is also where the other
machines are connected to.
Now, will my freebsd box have 2 IPs (one for ppp0 and one for fxp0) or
will it just have one? Thats really the only thing I'm not sure about
since I do want to use the freebsd box as I guess it would be a router and
a gatweay.
Any insight on how to set this up would be greatly appreciated. And I do
feel somewhat ashamed to even ask this question because I work at the isp
and I don't even know how to configure everything.
TIA,
Chris

I'd guess your problem is that you used a lowercase path instead of an
uppercase PATH. Unix is generally case sensitive.
You can always specify a program by path, so if your shell can't find it
on it's own you can use the full path like:
/usr/home/jwg/raplayer3.0/raplayer welcome.ra
or if you are in that directory
./raplayer welcome.ra

It will indeed have two IPs, an "inside" IP (on fxp0, only visible to
hosts on your localnet) and an "outside" IP on ppp0.
In your /etc/rc.conf, set gateway_enable to "YES". Your freebsd box
will be the gateway for all the other machines on your localnet.
If you have named (DNS) running, make entries for the machines in the
localnet. If not, edit /etc/hosts and put in ip addresses, according
to the RFC 1918 note in the file, for each machine on your localnet.
In your ppp.conf, turn on the aliasing options (man ppp for detail) so
that packets will be translated to the correct place:
alias enable yes
alias deny_incoming no
# alias log yes
alias same_ports yes
alias use_sockets yes
alias unregistered_only yes
On the other machines in the network, change the default gateway to the
(inside) IP address of the router. For FreeBSD machines, it's in
/etc/rc.conf:
### Network routing options: ###
defaultrouter="10.0.0.1" # Set to default gateway (or NO).
For windows machines, it's (I hope) ctrl panel, network, tcp/ip, gateway.
Somewhere in there.
Then restart the networking on all the machines, gateway first, and
you should be in business. I'm writing this from a computer on my local
network, connected to a FreeBSD box doing routing for the net via a ppp-
connected modem. Works great, except strange packets for my cousins'
Battle.net games keep getting killed by my firewall. Gotta fix that. :)
A way to determine your IP each time you dialup, if it's dynamic, is
netstat -ni | grep tun0 | grep 123.123.123 | awk '{print $4}'
substituting, of course, your ISP's IP block for 123.123.123.
If you have any more questions, LMK.
Regards,
Greg

Okay, everyone please forgive my newbie status. But I
want to recompile my kernel so I can do quotas and
other neat stuff. I also just need to finally do a kernel
recompile. Anyway the instructions in the manual say this:
Note: If there is not a /usr/src/sys directory on your system,
then the kernel source has not been been installed. Follow
the instructions for installing packages to add this package
to your system.
Well there is no /usr/src/sys directory on my system, but I'll
be darn if I can find the right instructions on how to install
the package which I need. And which package is it?
Can anyone shed some light here?
Thanks!

He said he had a 6-host subnet from his ISP, so his machines should
all have real addresses, and aliasing should not be used.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hi I was just chatting on irc and someone was complaining about their 'su'
ending whenever they used 'exec'. I went and tried it in csh/tcsh/sh/bash
and it happened to me as well, no matter what if I was su'd and did 'exec
<anything> it exec'd it and exited to the previous shell. Is there a reason for
that or is it just an oddity?

Subject: New drive works fine as #3 drive, but won't boot! Even followed Manual directions
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG

Hi,
I am trying to replace my current SCSI #0 drive with a new one.
I used the method as described in the manual,
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rsd2 bs=1k count=1
disklabel -Brw sd1 auto
disklabel -e sd2
Created new partitions,
in this case,
sd2a #root
sd2b #swap
sd2c #whole disk
sd2d #usr
sd2e #var
and did 'newfs -d0' on
/dev/rsd2a
/dev/rsd2d
/dev/rsd2e
then,
mount /dev/sd2a /mnt
mkdir /mnt/usr
mkdir /mnt/var
mount /dev/sd2d /mnt/usr
mount /dev/sd2e /mnt/var
then
cd /mnt
dump 0f - / | restore rf -
cd usr
dump 0f - /usr | restore rf -
cd ../var
dump 0f - /var | restore rf -
then, because this will be the NEW primary drive,
cd /mnt/etc
edit fstab
/dev/sd0b none swap sw 0 0
/dev/sd0a / ufs rw 1 1
/dev/sd0d /usr ufs rw 1 1
/dev/sd0e /var ufs rw 1 1
and so on, leaving the other entries as they are, for the cd and second normal
hdd. (sd1)
then
umount /dev/sd2e, sd2d, sd2a
shutdown -h now
then
disable original SCSI hdd, and change NEW hdd's jumpers so it is now SCSI
ID#0, and unterminated, because the cable itself is actively terminated with a
plugpack, the other end is terminated on the AHA card.
So, now everything looks like the original, only bigger. The original is 1.2
GB, this one is 3.2GB.
Power up.... nada.
The AHA card recoginses the new HDD, and finds both the new drive and the
normal second drive.
It waits a while, then flicks to the BIOS display, memory and all that, then
hangs for a few minutes, then blanks the screen with a message in the top left
hand corner, PRESS ANY KEY TO REBOOT.
The system see's the new drive fine as a third drive in the chain, but REFUSES
to boot from it. Obviously I'm doing something wrong... but what.
One last caveat.. I can't use /stand/sysinstall. This is 2.2-SNAP, and it
simply refuses to do anything intelligent. It want to reinstall everything on
the primary drive, sets screen colors so the whle thing is unreadable, and is a
VERY DANGEROUS utility to use! so I simply wont use it on a live system. I
don't use DOS, not will I ever on this system, so I'm trying to set up a
dedicated FreeBSD system, using correct partitions.
So the question is: How do I make this new drive bootable in a Pentium 200, so
I can replace the old drive?
Thanks for any help... it will be much appreciated.

Unfortunately the sound support isn't consistent under all OSs. The best
thing we have for that is OSS but it costs money ($20, but money).
rvplayer is a known goofball, I think it requires OSS or some hackery.
check the multimedia mail archives for info.

When reporting kernel panics, it's *very* important to include all output
from the panic. The page fault panic is very generic; we need the
addressing information to lock down what function the panic is originating
from.

Without knowing the details I can't comment on what's going on. If you
have the time I'd get your RAM and processor cache checked out.

Dear Friend,
I am new to freebsd. In Generic kernel in freebsd 2.2.6 and kernel that i
tried to customized, I find that there is long delay in boot process. The
delay about 30 seconds to 1 minutes, this happen after the kernel specify
the hard-disk type and befre specify the cdrom type.
is this normal ? if not how to get rid of this delay ?
Thank you
Please CC: to my email directly. Thank you

Okay, this means that something is wrong with the disk geometry. booteasy
can't seem to figure out what's going on, so it just loops. I'd sugest
finding a different boot manager, like OS-BS, with some more intelligence.

Some people have tried to make compressed filesystems, but none are

It just calls 'zcat' against the binary and sucks the result into the
image activator.

1. Make a 2.2.7 boot floppy.
2. Boot it.
3. Select 'upgrade'.
4. Follow the prompts.
Pretty easy, eh? :)

Did you copy /bin/ls into ~ftp/bin as directed to on the ftpd(8) man page?

DAT and DLT tape is popular at current and work pretty well (as long as
you are religious about cleaning the drive).

The media types reported by 'ifconfig -m' are the ones reported by the
card itself, so it's saying it doesn't support those speeds (or they're
not wrapping on your terminal).
For reference this is what my 21140 NIC says:
de0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 10.0.1.5 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.1.255
ether 00:c0:f0:16:3f:1d
media: autoselect (10baseT/UTP) status: active
supported media: autoselect 100baseTX <full-duplex> 100baseTX
10baseT/UTP <full-duplex> 10baseT/UTP
It's possible the 21143 needs some extra massaging.

Behavior of "exec" was just discussed on the list (yes, I note that you
said you weren't on the list; please see the archives).
Basically, "exec" *replaces* the program that invoked it.

This is what manpages are for. :-)
First usage on the ipfw(8) manpage is:
ipfw file
DESCRIPTION
If used as shown in the first synopsis line, the file will be read line
by line and applied as arguments to the ipfw command.

Are the sender and receiver on the same network?
What happens if you immediately restart the program? Run a traceroute to
the other host?

I'd also set up tcpdump and see where the ICMP No Route To Host message is
coming from. Your router may be dropping such a message to shut up the
sender.
I'm not sure 12k packets are kosher -- they're going to fragment _badly_
since Ethernet can only send 1500 bytes at once.

Are you running identd?
I think natd needs to be taught about identd. You may need to
redirect_port the port through.

Your PCMCIA CDROM probably requires a special driver and is not supported
by the standard boot floppy. Copy the installation files to the WIndows
partition as directed in the instruction booklet then do a DOS install to
copy the files from that partition.

I was wondering if anyone could tell me why lpd is starting on reboot when
it's not specified in rc.conf or anywhere else I can find? My rc.conf
file looks like this..
##############################################################
### Miscellaneous administrative options ###################
##############################################################
cron_enable="YES" # Run the periodic job daemon.
lpd_enable="NO" # Run the line printer daemon.
lpd_flags="" # Flags to lpd (if enabled).
yet on reboot, lpd is running. I've checked rc.local, in
/usr/local/etc/rc.d and it's not there either. The machine this is
happening on was attacked by the qpopper exploit before I patched it, and
it seems to have started around that time. In the meantime, qpopper's
been upgraded and I'm using tcp wrappers and ipfw to keep out attackers,
so there's no one else starting the process. If I manually kill it, it
seems to be fine, but I'd still like to know why it's starting.
Another thing I've noticed is that if I'm telnetted into the box from
somewhere else, and I get disconnected or my connection drops the user
stays logged in even though I try to kill the process. Nothing shows when
doing ps aux | grep user for the user who's supposedly still logged in.
Looking at the processes however shows telnetd still running for that user
and killing it doesn't log the user out either.
Any help or explanation would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Jim

You cannot have a reverse record pointing to a CNAME, it must point to an
A record. Fix your zone file and restart named.
If you don't already have it the O'Reily book 'DNS and BIND' is amust-buy
for DNS admins.

And I installed it. And it was Good.
I got the Asus P5A, a 128MB 8-ns PC100 compliant DIMM (made by either TI or
Micronics), Matrox G200 8MB AGP, Intel 10/100B, WD 8.4GB IDE, and a Teac
32X IDE CDROM. I took the K6-200 from my old system (now running at 100MHz
bus X 2 multiplier) as well as the Adaptec 2940UW, the SB AWE64 Value PnP,
the IDE ZIP drive, the Fujitsu 640MB MO drive (although I never tried using
it in FreeBSD), and the Voodoo2 12MB.
It's all working like a charm. I installed 2.2.7-R over ethernet from my
internet gateway machine (I had already downloaded 2.2.7-R to it earlier).
Everything installed without a hitch. The apm sleep command (zzz) works
great (i used it to let the KDE port compile overnight) and my system
actually wakes up properly (can't say the same for Win95). My only problem
is that my G200 isn't supported yet, so I'm running XFree86 with KDE in 16
colors...

Hi,
I have two servers, one with the new version 2.2.6, another with 2.1.1
Older version.
How i have to upgrade the older version with no high risk on my
directories and information?
Is safe to do directly?
Thanks a lot for your help!

Doug,
thanks for the reply.
I do have dns and bind, and am quite aware of the cname issue
in reverse lookups, but apparently my competitor isnt :)
In any case, things "mysteriously" started working so I would assume that
my competitor finally figured it out. thanks again!

Howdy folks,
I have just bought my hefty 4-CD set for 2.2.7 and I am
installing it on a 400MHz P II with the usual stuff (Adaptec
2940 UW, 4.5 Gb IBM 7200 SCSI disk, Toshiba 32X SCSI cdrom,
Matrox Millennium II 8 Mb, 128 Mb RAM, etc.).
I have to install FreeBSD on 4 similar machines which will
be geographically distributed (we are a startup and we don't
have an office yet). I am trying to do a least-work,
minimal-regret installation. So I am using the `novice'
option, with the `install everything' choice. The `novice'
choice of disk partitions seems perfectly reasonable as far
as I can tell.
Two things are bugging me a little, though.
1. This is not really freebsd's fault, but the `fake' disk
geometry (555 cylinders x 256 heads x 63 sectors) don't add
up to the advertised disk capacity, wasting about 0.1% of
the disk. OK: so that's about 50 cents, he, he, fine.
However, I am now wondering if the choice of geometry has
any impact on performance. Is the filesystem code still
making assumptions similar to 4.2 BSD?
2. The installation becomes dreadfully slow when it comes to
the port collection. In other parts of the installation,
the advertised transfer rate is between 100 and 1000+
KB/sec, but for the ports it slows down to 7 or 8 KB/sec.
What is it doing? Is it because there are lots of small
files? If so, should not they be installed as an archive?
It seems too slow anyhow.
Thanks a lot ---Luigi
