In both cases I'm using pppd with the line speed set to 115200 into a 56Kbps card modem. On Solaris I'd get 4-5Kb/s transfer rates, under FreeBSD I'm getting 3-400b/s. I've tried turning off compression as suggested in a previous email but to no avail. I'm using kppp to setup the line and dial etc, instead of a pppd chat script. Any suggestions as to what could be wrong? Cheers, Edward.

This cable has 3 connectors. Before RICOH installation in using was 2 of it: first and last. On first, as it was before, and as it right now, lives my AHA-1540CF with termination enabled. On the last was SEAGATE SCSI HDD terminated also. Termination what has RICOH not so useful as SEAGATE termination, by this reason I moved HDD on the second connector with termination disabled, CDRW was set at the last connector with terminators preinstalled at the factory. I only change SCSI ID of CDRW from 2 to 1 (AHA has 7 and HDD has 0). I think all of this is all right, isn't it?

This is normal. Process of probing IDE devices is much long. Proably You must configure and compile custom kernel detailed for your hardware.

Well, I can report that this seems to succeed. I have a wd1 appearing in dmesg. And running fdisk from within /stand/sysinstall gives me both wd0 and wd1. However, both wd1 and wd0 appear to be the same physical disk as the properties reported within dmesg are those of the 5G disk and nothing resembling the 330M disk appears.

For very small drives (under 200M), root=24-32M, var=16M, usr=rest. For 1 gig and under, generally, root=32M, var=32M, usr=rest. For over 1 gig, root=50M or 64M, var=32M-64M, usr=rest. Swap is generally mem+1K to 2x(mem). Does anyone know why the religious tendency to 2x mem? On my IBM AIX systems, swap only needs to be minimally mem+24bytes. If I have a lot of disk space, swap=32M. I have run into situations were root became filled for some unknown reason on large drives. I sense it may have to do with inode table sizes or such, but am not sure. I just routinely add some on large drives to keep things happy. If possible, I prefer to use two drives and keep users things off the usr file system on larger systems. Does anyone know exactly what the minimum file system sizes actually are for tiny drives on 2.2.7 or 3.0?

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.91.2i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I put an X.sh which looks as follows in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/. #!/bin/sh [ -x /usr/local/bin/kdm ] && /usr/local/bin/kdm && echo -n ' kdm' This works as far as it starts up kdm. The problem I have, is that /usr/local/etc/rc.d/sshd.sh (as created by installing the ssh port) is started after the X.sh script. Therefore, kdm does not get any input from the keyboard. That's kinda bad for entering the password. My question is: How do I make sure that X.sh is executed last? And while I am at it: How to I tell kdm to open the X server with more than 8 bit color depth? I have an $HOME/.xserverrc that contains 'Xwrapper -bpp 24'. This works fine when I invoke startx by hand but it does not when using kdm. /usr/local/share/config/kdmrc does not contain an entry to set the color depth and I couldn't find any information on the issue in the documentation at http://www.kde.org/. (kdehelp core dumps on my system for some mysterious reason.) BTW: I am using the kde-1.0 port on a FreeBSD 2.2.7-STABLE system.

For disks under, say, 350M, I usually just have a root and swap partition and that's it. That way, if /usr needs to grow a little and / doesn't, I don't waste any space. On a 200M drive, I would never even consider having a separate /var or /usr partition. Even on larger drives, for a machine that's going to be used as a workstation, I put it all under /. For machines that will be doing server-type stuff, where you'd be logging lots of stuff in /var, then you might want to put /usr and /var on a separate disk, or separate partition. I'm just not a big fan of having lots of partitions, because of the potential to waste lots of space. > > Swap is generally mem+1K to 2x(mem). Does anyone know why the religious > tendency to 2x mem?

It really depends on what you're doing. If all you use your machine for is an Xterm to another system, you don't need much swap. If you don't run X, and you just edit files, use IRC, read mail, etc, you don't need much swap, either. If you compile stuff a lot, use Netscape, or do things with large data sets, you need more swap. i've never needed more than 32 megs of RAM and 40 megs of swap on a workstation machine. My home server has the same arrangement. For a departmental server or something, where people are actually running lots of stuff on the machine rather than just having it serve files, you will want to make sure you have more swap. That's when you may want to go with the 1.5 or 2 * MB_MEM formula, which is probably safe. If you have that much swap, and you're actaully using all of it, it's probably an indication that you need to get more actual RAM. Partitioning and swap-sizing is really kind of black-magic, fly-by-the-seat-of your-pants kind of stuff, no matter what anyone tells you. The 1.5 or 2 * MB_MEM rule is really just a convenient guideline for people who can't or don't want to experiment, and aren't already short on disk space. > > RDK > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message > =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Jeffrey Dunitz | Current Job: | orpheus@avalon.net BOFH Emeritus, Avalon Networks | Information Services | Iowa City, IA http://www.avalon.net/~orpheus | Cray Research/SGI | (319) 339-8268 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 23 11:56:20 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA12826 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 23 Aug 1998 11:56:20 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from forest.fscinternet.com (aurora.fscinternet.com [165.154.230.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA12809; Sun, 23 Aug 1998 11:56:14 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from rreiner@forest.fscinternet.com) Received: from jupiter (jupiter.fscinternet.com [10.1.1.103]) by forest.fscinternet.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id OAA11540; Sun, 23 Aug 1998 14:55:32 -0400 (EDT) Message-Id: <199808231855.OAA11540@forest.fscinternet.com> From: "Richard Reiner" Organization: FSC Internet To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-scsi@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Sun, 23 Aug 1998 14:58:19 -0400 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Subject: SCSI tape crashes on 2.1.6 Reply-to: rreiner@fscinternet.com X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Win32 (v3.01b) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG P90 using a 1542CF driving an Archive DDS-1 DAT and 90m tapes.

Reading backups back from tape results in a large variety of errors ranging from bad reads to system crashes. Termination has been double-and-triple-and-quadruple-checked to be correct. Have also tried a different SCSI host adapter -- BT946C -- with same results. Has our DAT drive just gone south? Or is this some bug in the scsi or st drivers in our old version of FreeBSD?

MediaOne does use DHCP, but according to their description of how their setup works (MediaOne really needs to cut down on the Java/Javascript; makes their site hard to navigate), they only reorg IP blocks when necessary. My guess is that once you allocate a particular IP, you'll keep it for months. So for installation purposes, you can probably boot up win95, get an IP, install FreeBSD using that IP, then install wide-dhcp. BTW, it looks like the reason that cablemodems are so blazing fast is that they simply proxy everything. Just about everything except telnet is cached. http://www.mediaone.com/express/central/twoway/how_it_works/diagram.html -Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 23 13:05:55 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA16973 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 23 Aug 1998 13:05:55 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from dlcwest.com (louise.dlcwest.com [204.83.37.7]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA16962 for ; Sun, 23 Aug 1998 13:05:49 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from rschick@dlcwest.com) Received: from dlcwst ([208.26.112.60]) by dlcwest.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id OAA17719 for ; Sun, 23 Aug 1998 14:04:58 -0600 Message-Id: <199808232004.OAA17719@dlcwest.com> X-Sender: rschick@mail.dlcwest.com (Unverified) X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.0 Date: Sun, 23 Aug 1998 16:04:37 -0700 To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Rob Schick Subject: question ...

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.
 

Doug, as always you are right. The disk geometry was set in a ">1024 cyl" manner - wrong!  I run my 2.2.2-R CDROM install.bat and used the "Configure"->"Partition"  to set the geometry as it has to be - under 1024 cyl. (I have no emergency boot floppy :-(()

I'm happy now with OS-BS :-) 10x for suggestion.

However, I'd add some comment here: It was not me that have changed the disk geometry - I never play with such things. Hronologicaly this happens RIGHT after I've changed my motherboard/processor from one I can't recall to  GA 686 BX / P II MMX-266.

I am not aware so deeply in the hardware but is it possible new BIOS to have something to do with my (ex)-problem ?

Do you register them the same way you do a domain name? Nah. Basically, all you have to do is to set up a nameserver to run on a machine. The name <-> IP correlation needs to be registered, though.

While I'm not sure that I'd characterize ssh, X11, and cvsup over @Home as "blazing fast", they're all reasonably snappy, and I'm fairly sure that none of these applications have their data proxied or cached by @Home. :-) Not to nitpick, but it's the ISPs that decide if they want to support proxies for different applications or not. The cable modems themselves don't have anything to do with proxying, and if they didn't deliver a decent bitrate to the end users, all the proxying in the world wouldn't help. [1] Now if you were to say that, in general, the cable modem ISPs improve their customers' Web browsing performance through the use of aggressive caching, I'd be in solid agreement. Cheers, Bruce.

This just means that /var/run/utmp hasn't been updated. Nothing to really worry about - the user isn't really logged in. The next time the tty is used, it will be overwritten by the correct user.

Writing a device driver *is* for advanced people; and not for the faint-hearted. What you can look at is the sources for some of the current Networking devices and use them as a template. You then have to be very specific with your questions. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Jonathan Chen | When all else fails, RTFM ------------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 23 17:24:24 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA10285 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 23 Aug 1998 17:24:24 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from studict.student.utwente.nl (studict.student.utwente.nl [130.89.220.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id RAA10279 for ; Sun, 23 Aug 1998 17:24:17 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from w.tromp@student.utwente.nl) Received: from student.utwente.nl (cal011307.student.utwente.nl [130.89.222.117]) by studict.student.utwente.nl (8.8.6/MQT) with ESMTP id CAA03295 for ; Mon, 24 Aug 1998 02:23:23 +0200 (METDST) Message-ID: <35E0B31D.BF0B9F8F@student.utwente.nl> Date: Mon, 24 Aug 1998 02:26:05 +0200 From: Wouter Tromp X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5b1 [en] (WinNT; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: newbie questions Content-Type: text/plain; charset=x-user-defined Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, Yesterday someone encouraged me to use Freebsd. Well, I got nervess, and I wanted to know more. So I looked a little in www.freebsd.org. I still got some questions though. 1) I want to use windows nt workstation(for office and stuff) and FreeBSD. is this possible? Because I heart FreeBSD has to be on the primary partition. And because of lack of time, I'm not going to reinstall nt again. So is it possible to install FreeBSD on an extended partition? 2) As a complete quake2 addict, I want to know if I can play quake2 on FreeBSD. I read somewhere that there are Compatibility modules for linux and other OS'. Quake2 runs excellent on linux, but does that also count for freeBSD and also in the opengl video mode? 3)Four of my five partitions have NTFS filesystem on it, the other is just FAT. Can I still use these NTFS partitions under freeBSD, or do I have to create FAT partitions to use the files in both nt and FreeBSD? Well, that's it. Hope to get some answers to these questions!!

Would this be any > indication about my BIOS? 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.

It appeared after I tried to install it on primary slave drive. When that disk was secondary master I had no problems here. I'm sure I did'n delete sc0. I suggest you choose "Skip kernel configuration" and continue with installation. Then U can build your own kernel to modify hardware profiles.

I rembered suffering serial overruns in Win95 prior to adjusting my FIFO RX and TX buffers to more conservative settings, and from what I've read in the archives they're set aggressively in FreeBSD to optimize performance. I have a 16650 UART, and have decided this must be the problem. Unfortunately I am unsure of what changes to make to sio.c to lower these settings, and was wondering if anyone could tell me what needs to be changed...

It supports, dial-in users, file and printer sharing and all the Internet stuff as well all with much lower overheads and older hardware. However, a person coming from a completely MS background would have a hard time getting BSD working with a web server. Just the partitioning and labelling of the drives seems to get most people. Point and click might not be the best, but it sure is easy. Also, a well built NT box is more secure than a poorly built BSD one - wouldn't you agree.

Instead of trying to install the package, I would recommend that you download the original qmail-1.03.tar.gz archive and compile from there. It's as good as a port/package.

I can get it to mount, but some of the mail applications, in particular the CDE's dtmail don't want to play ball. I seemed to solve a similar glitch with /bin/mail by running rpc.lockd on the freebsd server, but dtmail still doesn't work. Either hanging, or simply saying "cannot access this mailbox". I've checked permissions, and there doesn't seem to be a problem there? Any clues? -- __________________________________ ___ _ _ _ Tom Simpson.

I would say that FreeBSD is significantly more secure 'out of the box' than NT, and can be made more so by someone who knows what they are doing. Of course, if your security person is clueless, all bets are off no matter how good the OS. I would also say that a 'BSD admin is more likely to be clueful, since they have to do more than just point'n'click :) Just my $0.02 worth.....

Indeed it doesn't. You could register that domain and arrange all the necessary forwarding, routing and name service with your ISP, but I doubt you want to go to all that trouble and expense just for email. The easiest fix is to change your sendmail configuration so that all mail from your machine appears to come from netvigator.com, so your address will appear as peter@netvigator.com. In /etc/sendmail.cf there should be a couple of lines that read: # who I masquerade as (null for no masquerading) (see also $=M) DM or something similar (the DM line is the important one). Change this to: # who I masquerade as (null for no masquerading) (see also $=M) DMnetvigator.com and all should be well. If I've forgotten anything I'm sure someone on the list will let you (and I) know :) Cheers, Scott. -- =========================================================================== Scott Mitchell | PGP Key ID |"If I can't have my coffee, I'm just | 0x54B171B9 | like a dried up piece of roast goat" QMW College, London, UK | 0xAA775B8B | -- J.

Then reboot. If things don't work, there'll be a backup copy of your old kernel - kernel.old, kept there, which you can choose when you boot up. This is all explained in the handbook, look for the section on making custom kernels, etc. (it's in /usr/share/doc/handbook, you can use lynx to view it, else you can look at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/.)

I'm still having trouble with the user ppp on my computer not dying after a dial-in session: -- original post --- 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.

Assuming you have IPFIREWALLING enabled in your kernel, you can use ipfw's count parameter to help you out. To get this to work, you'll need to know certain things about your network - basically: ipfw count ip from your-network to not your-network ipfw count ip from not your-network to your-network (your-network is in form ip/bits, or ip:netmask) You can use "ipfw show" to show your usage since you last reset the counter - I recommend you use "ipfw show" in your daily cron, followed by a "ipfw zero", which will give you daily usage (you might miss a tiny bit between the ipfw show and zero, but I'm sure that's not likely to make a huge difference).

I'm using PPP -alias on freebsd on my home LAN. I have a Windows98 box I'm using apps on. Every single app I've run thus far has worked beautifully with alias except ICQ I read about setting up ICQ with a firewall and use port redirecting on PPP..but I am not sure I have it setup right. Because I do not understand the difference between TCP and UDP and rather you need to set BOTH 1 or the other. Right now I have 20 ports set for ICQ using the following..10.0.0.2 being the LAN IP of my Win98 box... alias port tcp 10.0.0.2:3000 3000 .... alias port tcp 10.0.0.2:3020 3020 then finally.. alias port udp 10.0.0.2:4000 4000 ICQ says it uses UDP on port 4000 and TCP for listening ports. Do I have this setup right? Do I have to have both udp and tcp? I actually have tried it different ways and I still experience problems. Such as missed messages..file transfer working 50% of the time, and periodically bouncing off and online..and even sometimes I appear ONLINE on my end, my friends tell me I am offline. This is quite annoying when I have greatly become dependant on ICQ for friend contact and project contact with people. It seems in the ICQ documentation it really prefers a SOCKS server. I read someplace that you cant have a socks server and use -alias at the same time. Or can I? I can not get my own IP for the winbox..so I am stuck with sharing..so any advice help etc or just telling me that ICQ is flat out flaky and nothing I can do..will be appreciated. Thanks.

Well, you'll either have to rebuild your kernel, or you can use the ip firewalling loadable kernel module. man ipfw, and type "/modload", and you'll see the command to load it. You can put that command in your rc.local. Quick way to find out if you're running IPFIREWALLING is to type "ipfw list".

I ended up contacting Brian, the guy who maintains PPP. He asked if I had the name of the machine in the /etc/hosts file. While I did have it in there, it made me think. The problem was in the resolv.conf file. I had put the ip address of a name server in there. Since I'm not connected to the internet, when PPP started it looked for that name server in the file. I removed the name server and everything started working again. I suggest using the "enable dns" command be put into your ppp.linkup file if your ISP supports that option. Thanks for the help.

This leads to a few questions: 1) If I use Partition Magic to move the FreeBSD partition and its contents, will FreeBSD boot ok. Or does it keep track of the partition info in a special FreeBSD specific place.

Hence the weird time on the original files. I then have /usr/ports/makefile do the following for me when I do make patch: cat /root/localmods/ports/*.patch |diff I'm careful to do this with /usr/ports as my working directory. To my dismay, I find the patch-a? and patch-a?.orig files being created in /usr/ports and _not_ the child directories as I expected. Can anyone suggest what I should do to have these files created in the appropriate directories? Thanks, Sheldon.

Keys" >Date: Sun, 23 Aug 1998 12:00:54 -0400 (EDT) >Swap is generally mem+1K to 2x(mem). Does anyone know why the religious >tendency to 2x mem? On my IBM AIX systems, swap only needs to be minimally >mem+24bytes. If I have a lot of disk space, swap=32M. It's not "religious" as much as a reflection of the way the VM manager works, combined with the anticipated workload for the machine. There are VM implementations that require that any allocated virtual memory page have a corresponding page allocated on the "backing store" (swap space). SunOS 4.x (& prior?), if I recall correctly, use this approach, and the rule of thumb for allocating at least 2x RAM for swap was common for such releases of SunOS. There are VM implementations that allocate pages on the backing store only when the page in memory needs to be spilled to disk. If I understand correctly, SunOS 5.x does this -- and it is thus possible to run a Solaris 2.x box with no swap space alloctaed at all (depending on the workload & the amount on RAM). When I have set up Sun boxes, I generally set up /tmp as a "tmpfs" -- uses memory (& swap), but tries to avoid disk I/O entirely. (SunOS 4.x didn't do it by default, but made it fairly easy. SunOS 5.x defaults to using tmpfs.) Based on the positive experiences I have had with tmpfs, and my general appreciation for how avoiding (disk) I/O is generally a Good Thing, I set up FreeBSD boxes to have /tmp mounted on swap using mfs. This tends to encourage a larger swap allocation than one might otherwise use; I start with 256 MB swap (and sometimes go up from there). Since I point /tmp at the mfs, I don't need space in / for it, so my root FS tends to be allocated at 20 MB, and actually use from 16 to 18 MB. (Most of the machines I set up need to be able to handle fairly significant quantities of CVS & "make" activity. And some of the folks for whom I set up boxes sometime change things around afterward; they know their situations better than I do....)

Your best bet, if you're willing to do it, is to scrap your current partitioning and stuff, and start from the beginning again; install win98, install your win98 programs, then install BSD, and things should go fine. This way you don't have to resize partitions, and so forth. Hope this helps.

As root I execute this command: > kill `ps -auwx | grep -i perl | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}'` If you're absolutely sure you want to kill all the processes returned by your pipe, just use kill -KILL `ps -auwx | grep -i perl | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}'` This is the "absolute" kill. However, it is possible that they will get spawned again... Then you just have to figure out where and how and why they are called, and change that if need be.

If you're looking for an mp3 encoder, as your subject line suggests, check out 8hz-mp3, recently added to the Ports Collection.

I suppose that you did a config FLICKIN in directory /sys/i386/conf and that it finished successfully ?? And then you changed directory like this: cd ../../compile/FLICKIN and then you typed: make If you did in fact do all this, then attach the output from the make. One way to do that is to run a script (see man script) first (script logfilename), and then use make. All of the output from make will be "tee'ed" to the screen and to the logfilename.

It wasn't the easiest install of UNIX that I've ever done, but it is not any harder than most of the Linux distributions out there and I have become a big fan of FreeBSD. Here are some suggestions: 1) Pickup a copy of "The Complete FreeBSD" (ISBN: 1-57176-216-1). You can purchase this from http://www.freebsd.org by selecting "Getting FreeBSD" and following the links. 2)When the time comes to install, FreeBSD will need its own partition. You might be lucky enough to use "fips", a disk partition tool that will take the largest contiguous section of a hard disk and create a new partition for you. This only gave me a 100MB partition so I hard to "fdisk" my hard disk and re-install '98. 3)If you have to use fdisk, INSTALL WIN98 FIRST. If you install FreeBSD first, '98 might overwrite your boot partition. 4)Make sure you know all of the IRQ's and addresses for all of your hardware before you start. If you plan on installing X-Windows, make sure you know the technical specs on your video card and monitor (things like model, amount of video memory, different screen resolutions, refresh rate). Configuring X-Windows was the hardest part of the install for me. 5)Before you start, have some sort of bootable floppy that contains the drivers for your CD-ROM. I created a Win98 bootable floppy and put my CD-ROM drivers on it. This will be a lifesaver if any part of the installation goes catastrophically wrong. I chose Win98 becuase I was new to FreeBSD. Feel free to use any operating system you'd like to create a bootable floppy. For future bootable floppies, I am going to attempt to try "PicoBSD". Hope this helps!

I've gone ahead and done this. NOTE: This time I went straight into /sys/compile/FLICKIN and ran 'make'. I hope I wasn't supposed to run config and do a 'make depend' first again. Last time, the command took a lot longer and emitted more copious output.

I get the same problem with minicom (never had it happen with PPP though). It happens with my system in two different situations: a) when uploading via zmodem using minicom (lots of crc errors. it almost looks like a flow-control problem). b) when using minicom and switching vt's rapidly.

I made sure all my setting were correct, and they are. I then tried something. I added a mapped link on WinGate that listens on port 22 and maps to ftp.freebsd.org on port 21.

If I tell it to get them from ftp://192.168.0.1:22/.25/FreeBSD/2.2.7-RELEASE/ then it says it couldn't CD to 2.2.7-RELEASE. Anyone help me at all?

I know OpenBSD is very secure probably the most secure of the BSDs and Linux, I ve also been told that FreeBSDs networking is much more solid and FreeBSD stands up better under under loads, would this not hold true for an OpenBSD based system??? is there anyway to harden a FreeBSD systems and kernel, much like the OpenBSD system, or the new "Solar Designer" Patch against the linux kernel, security is a big issue with some of my clients as it is with me also. I understand that if someone wants to really get into a system, somehow they are going to. Id just like to make it that much more difficult. Is there a "Securing you FreeBSD" type doc anywhere as there are for linux, and openbsd??? is FreeBSD that far behind openBSD in security, or is openbsd used as a predeccessor and possible good patches applied?? Have the FreeBSD core Team ever done a security audit?? and lastly, Ill accept any suggestions on "Steps to Securing a FreeBSD System", If i get enuff good ones ill compile a Security FAQ or HOWTO. I thinks Ive covered the basics on my system, but suggestions always help. Thanks in Advance, and sorry for being long winded.

You can invoke it from the command line using `startx', or have the `xdm' (X-Login stuff) running all the time. In both cases, it is possible to switch to the std. console stuff by using Ctl-Alt-F1. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Jonathan Chen | -insert-witty-quip-here- ------------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 24 19:23:01 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA16768 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 24 Aug 1998 19:23:01 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from coal.sentex.ca (coal.sentex.ca [209.112.4.16]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA16763 for ; Mon, 24 Aug 1998 19:22:58 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mike@sentex.net) Received: from gravel (ospf-mdt.sentex.net [205.211.164.81]) by coal.sentex.ca (8.8.8/8.8.7) with SMTP id WAA00874 for ; Mon, 24 Aug 1998 22:22:11 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from mike@sentex.net) Message-Id: <3.0.5.32.19980824222553.00c44d10@sentex.net> X-Sender: mdtancsa@sentex.net X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0.5 (32) Date: Mon, 24 Aug 1998 22:25:53 -0400 To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: Mike Tancsa Subject: Password Synchronization Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG As people add more services on different computers, I was wondering what people are using to keep the master password file/authentication in sync ?

As far as media options, my vote goes to the ftp method. As long as you currently have a dialup PPP connection available, it's totally painless. Just boot from the floppy, then follow the prompts. Make sure it gets started OK, then turn off the monitor and go to bed. In the morning it will be done. Hint 1 - Somewhere along the line during the ftp install process, you will be told "Make sure your connection is fully established before pressing Enter here!" or words to that effect. That means to wait until you see PPP ON hostname> on the console from which you're starting PPP. Note that "PPP" must be in all caps - lowercase means the link is down. Before starting, you will need to get the IP addresses for your gateway and your name server from your ISP if you don't already have this info. Also your netmask. Hint 2 - *Do* download the source code, even if you don't think you'll need it, because you *will* need it if you'll ever want to kustomize your kernel in the future. In my case "the future" was just a few days, and I had to go back and get the source after the fact. Better to just get it in the first place.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Morning... Just spent this evening getting printing setup off my FreeBSD machine (oh, how I love Solaris at these times *groan*)...got it now so that I can print directly from Netscape, color and graphics and all. The printer is an HP 560c. Now, I want to be able to print from my Windoze95 machine, and have samba setup for that, as well as file sharing. If I setup my Windoze machine such that my printer is \\thelab\deskjet, which is the same printer (in /etc/printcap) that I use for Netscape under Unix, the test page gets sent across, but it isn't correct (graphic is all skewed). I'm figuring that there is something different that I must do with my printcap for a samba-shared printer vs local, but looking through the archives, can't find anything other then "use samba", so I ask here. My current entry is: deskjet:ps:PS:S:lp:HP DeskJet Printer:\ :sh:sd=/var/spool/lpd/deskjet:\ :lp=/dev/lpt0:\ :if=/usr/local/libexec/ifhp:\ :lf=/var/log/log.printer: The if filter is the /usr/share/examples/hpif file, for piping postscript through ghostscript. On the Windoze side, I have the HP 560c drivers loaded, and a friend mentioned something about just wanted to pass it through straight, but getting rid of the if= line doesn't appear to help, so that's not doing it right :( What am I overlooking?

I think you're printing on Win95 to a standard PCL printer driver that was shipped with the printer or with Win95. On the FreeBSD machine, simply copy your existing printcap entry to another entry and (rename it of course) use a non-postscript filter (get rid of if= part or substitute a filter that is for PCL). For anyone who is unaware, PCL is HP's Printer Control Language and there are different levels, like PCL 3, PCL 4, PCL5, and I think PCL 6. Each higher, being a superset. HP sells PCL language reference books... Let us know if this helps you out... I'm going to be doing the same on my machines in the next few days...

I'm not sure what's a device or a controller or an interface. Please correct when I've gone wrong. 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? Well, I can report that this seems to succeed. I have a wd1 appearing in dmesg. And running fdisk from within /stand/sysinstall gives me both wd0 and wd1. However, both wd1 and wd0 appear to be the same physical disk as the properties reported within dmesg are those of the 5G disk and nothing resembling the 330M disk appears. Perhaps I should just abandon my 330M.... :( Van anyone point me in the right direction? Should I be added a new IDE controller or just a disk to my kernel?

I've used kernel config to set the ed0 parameters to what the D-Link diagnostics program tells me they are, I've used the D-Link diagnostics to set the D-Link 650 parameters to the kernel defaults, I've used "-1" values in the kernel config for the IRQ, and for both I/O and IRQ, all to no avail.

I have a system with a minimal system BIOS and I want to boot FreeBSD. Is there a ROM boot module available so that I don't have to write an IDE interface to boot ? If not, what is the minimum disk support required ? Would IDE Read be sufficient ... or would I have a major overhaul on the kernel loader ? I can add any system BIOS interrupts required ... but I need to know the minimum ... roughly. (system memory available ... etc...) Could someone point me in the right direction to look ... I will definately upload a ROM bootable module if there is not one available. Thanks in advance.

Marc, If I remember correctly there is a driver / utility disk with the card with a utility called ezstart ( or something like that ) that runs under DOS. You can set the card to either auto configure which port it uses or hardwire it for a certain port. I have had trouble using the card under certain *BSD's when set to the auto option so I always hard set for a particular port. Use the ifconfig link options to switch ports if you're using the card in auto mode. Sorry if that's vague, I haven't played with the SMC cards for a while!

Doing a "ps -auwx | grep -i perl | more" shows a lot of processes that are no longer active (all state "D"). Root is not able to kill these processes using the command "kill -KILL `ps -auwx | grep -i perl | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}'`". These processes stay in memory and I'm pretty sure these processes are causing the memory consumption. These processes are all processes spawned by Apache 1.3.1 (ordinary CGI) and should no longer be in memory. Is this an Apache-bug on FreeBSD? My Linux-boxes running the exact same CGI-scripts have no leaks... Could it be caused by a misconfiguration in /etc/login.conf?

I never used fetchmail, but I do have a similar setup. You have to look at the headers of the mail you receive and try to find a place where it is mentioned. For example in my setup the Delivered-To: header contains the information I want, but this depends on the mailer your ISP uses. If you have found that, the setup of fetchmail should be no problem I guess, but I can't help you with it.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93.2i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi all, Just wondering if anyone has had any luck getting Doug's NeoMagic X server to work on a ThinkPad 380D (or similar). It appears to start OK, but then hangs the machine, as in it won't respond to the keyboard or mouse. The only way out is the Big Red Switch. I've attached the output of dmesg, SuperProbe, X -probeonly and my XF86Config file below, in case these are any help. The XF86Config is based on the one at http://www.monumental.com/js/Neomagic.html, which is for a slightly different machine, so this may be my problem. I'm running a fresh (last night) install of 2.2.6/XFree86 3.3.2. Winblows identifies the NeoMagic chipset as a MagicGraph 128ZV or 128XD depending on where you ask :) As soon as I get X working satisfactorily I'm going to start on a driver for the Xircom PCMCIA Ethernet cards, so any help will be much appreciated.

I'm having a problem with LAN in FreeBSD-2.2.6. I have a 686 with win95 and Realtek PCI ethernet card, and a 586 with win95 and 3Com 503, and a 486 with FreeBSD and 3Com 503. The problem is that I can connect from the 686 to the 486, but not from the 586. The 486 is configured as a gateway, and it works with the 686, but when i try to connect from the 586 it says ff.ff.ff.ff.ff.... changed to 23.d.3.35.23 or something incoherent. The addresses are: 486 : 168.142.1.1 686 : 168.142.1.2 586 : 168.142.1.3 What line must I have in the rc.conf : ifconfig_ed0 = "168.142.1.1 ... etc what must i put there to make all the machines work in the LAN. I have netmasks in all : 255.255.255.0 and dns is my ISP's 194.100.0.1 -> 194.100.0.11 and all the hosts are different in the windows's configuration. So, it works on one machine like : --- 686(win95,168.142.1.2) -> lan_cable -> 486(freebsd 168.142.1.1) ->modem_to_internet(194.100.61.226). --- So the 686 works like it was on internet via the ethernet card. BUT if i put the 586 in there ... like -- 586(win95,168.142.1.3) -> lan_cable -> 686(win95,168.142.1.2) -> lan_cable -> 486(freebsd 168.142.1.1) ->modem_to_internet(194.100.61.226). -- It doesn't work on the 586, only in the 686. When trying to telnet to 168.142.1.1 (468) it says that ff.ff.ff thingie... I have checked the cable etc that's not the problem or neither is the 3Com card. All those machines work together in a Win95 network. I have tried everything to the ifconfig_ed0, i've tried aliases different types, but it still won't recognise the other machine. Only one. Q: What must the configuration line be? //Sampsa Kostia To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 25 06:31:57 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA27203 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 25 Aug 1998 06:31:57 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from woody.aiinet.com ([206.103.249.70]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA27192 for ; Tue, 25 Aug 1998 06:31:50 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mattg@aiinet.com) Received: by mail2.aiinet.com with Internet Mail Service (5.0.1460.8) id <38TXWP4Q>; Tue, 25 Aug 1998 09:31:09 -0400 Message-ID: <7283DE19D141D111AD0E00A0C95B1955CF12A7@mail2.aiinet.com> From: "Gessner, Matt" To: "'freebsd-questions@freebsd.org'" Subject: ports broken Date: Tue, 25 Aug 1998 09:31:08 -0400 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.0.1460.8) Content-Type: text/plain Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Sigh...

The database will have to support perhaps up to 20 concurrent users, and will have to keep track of more than 10,000 records. Hence, performance is an issue. Another issue is availability of ODBC drivers and APIs, as my web programs will have to interface with this database. As this is my first time *attempting* to set up a freeBSD system, I am quite in the dark as to what's available, etc. Help will be greatly appreciated ....

A (minor) correction to my earlier note: either chown newuser:newgroup file0 file1 file2 ... fileN or chown newuser.newgroup file0 file1 file2 ... fileN does, in fact, work. Before responding, I had checked the man page for chown, which specifies the "newuser:newgroup" syntax. Although the "newuser.newgroup" syntax was one I had used previously (on SunOS systems), I didn't try it, since the man page specified otherwise. >Why there is both version?

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi! I have a big problem here... I can't send mail through my ppp connection the way I used to. I must now either telnet to my isp on port 25, or disconnect, and log on in terminal mode. Here's the situation: I have an IRIX account at my university. There, I installed slirp, which emulates a ppp connection, and slirp.popper, which emulates a POP3. The server I'm on is derby.jsp.umontreal.ca. To fetch my mail, I use the 10.0.2.1 address, cause it's the popper address. The server I used to send my mail was epsom.jsp.umontreal.ca . So in Pine, I have smtpserver= epsom.jsp.umontreal.ca . I have set my own domain name (outpost.nada.org), even if it has no IP address equivalence in any DNS. Recently (Aug 22), I stopped receiving replies from mail I was sending. I also remarked that on that precise day the file /etc/host.conf was modified (probably by me!) to look like this: ------------------------------ # $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 host # If you have YP/NIS configured, uncomment the next line #nis ------------------------------- I tried reversing bind and host, nothing will do. So I tried telnet epsom.jsp.umontreal.ca 25 , to send mail directly. And it worked! this is resolv.conf: ------------------------------- beaupran@outpost [11:02am] /usr/src# more /etc/resolv.conf domain outpost.nada.org nameserver 132.204.2.103 nameserver 132.204.2.102 -------------------------------- 132.204.2.103 is the derby DNS and the other is the epsom DNS.

From passwd(5); The login name must never begin with a hyphen (``-''); also, it is strongly suggested that neither upper-case characters or dots (``.'') be part of the name, as this tends to confuse mailers. No field may contain a colon (``:'') as this has been used historically to separate the fields in the user database. I can remember this biting me when I moved from SunOS to Solaris.

The problem still exists and maybe this is a better place to ask. Ok, here it goes: I installed Blender (http://www.neogeo.nl/blender.html) exactly as the README in the distribution archive recommends it. When trying to start the program, I get the following: % blender % Could not install .B.Blend Has the software been properly installed? For me, this looks like a permission problem. But the error occurs regardless to whether I try to run the application as root or as ordinary user. Any hints about what I am missing are appreciated.

The filter that he is using uses ghost(something) that will convert input for the printer to the language for the deskjets. Deskjets are lil bit silly when it comes to languages. I went threw this before when I was trying to set up printing. But I used a freeware LPR program for windows so I did not have to use samba for printing. It simpiflied debuging.

I'm seeing my PPro200 with FreeBSD 2.2.7-STABLE being about 3 times slower (according to iozone) then Irix 5.3 running on R4000 at 100MHz with SGI's latest NFS3 patches. Memory is plentyfull. The client is also an Irix machine very similar to the server. The network is 10BaseT and the numbers are (24Mb test file): Irix to FreeBSD: 237929 bytes/second for writing the file 5642561 bytes/second for reading the file Irix to Irix: 717997 bytes/second for writing the file 5423668 bytes/second for reading the file I do not really trust the "reading" numbers, because they seem to represent the cache performance. The mount options in both cases are: 3,rw,intr,bg,hard,private changing "hard" to "soft" did not affect much. Removal of "private" slowed things down to NFS Irix to FreeBSD: 162653 bytes/second for writing the file 5094296 bytes/second for reading the file NFS Irix to Irix: 591997 bytes/second for writing the file 5221125 bytes/second for reading the file The FreeBSD machine has DEC's PCI network card (in 10BaseT mode), the machine is not slow at all and local disk access is FreeBSD local disk access: 4575604 bytes/second for writing the file Straight: FTP get Irix to FreeBSD: 112469104 bytes received in 102.27 seconds, 1073.94 K/s FTP put Irix to Irix: 112469104 bytes sent in 136.38 seconds (805.33 Kbytes/s) The machines are on the hub with about 8 other mostly idle machines. Any clues as to how to tune the FreeBSD NFS up are greatly appreciated!

Hello,
 
My = machine is a=20 Toshiba Satellite 200CDT laptop (dual boot, I have a partition for WNT). = I cannot make my 3Com = Etherlink III=20 3C589C working (it is a combo with = BNC and=20 10baseT).
 
Everything seems to be OK, but I = cannot ping any=20 machine on the network...
 
I have set the "-link0 = link1" option=20 for 'ifconfig'  (BNC cable).
It seems to be = good, since=20 that way,  the green light of = the=20 transceiver blinks quickly when the system is up, which is not the case = with the=20 "link0 -link1" option (no light).
 
I don't think it is a matter or IRQ = even if WNT=20 uses IRQ 5 for the Etherlink III.
I have tried = to set IRQ to 5=20 with BSD, but then, the device is no longer recognized.
 
Could you help me ?
 
You will find hereafter three kinds of informations=20 :
- output of 'ifconfig -au'
    NB: we have a 32 addresses=20 subnetwork.  Our netmask is really 255.255.255.224
- content of /var/log/messages
- content of /etc/rc.conf
 
Thanks in advance.

On it we have a rather large shared memory program and inetd lauched clients that also access the shared memory. Lately the small inetd launched clients have occasionally paniced the system with a "Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode" The machine shutsdown and doesn't reboot. Things are ok after we reboot, but we have to do some work to restore files that were lost in between saves. Any ideas? Is switching to 2.2.7 likely to help?

FreeBSD is more stable than any NT box using a straight-from-cd configuration and the GENERIC kernel. To make it less secure you would have to mess around with a lot of the FreeBSD and it's programs' source code and intentionally make it less secure. Also NT' cannot manage any badnwidth, which is why, Hotmail is owned by microsoft, yet runs apache. The immense amount of users that lands on hotmail daily is nto enough for MS Backoffice to handle.

I have been using Win NT for several years now and recently set up a WWW server using NT 4.0/SP3 and IIS 3. This combination works well but I feel I can better performance out of UNIX and Apache. I've purchased FreeBSD CDROM ver 2.25 and have installed it on a test PC, a Pentium 133 with 32 meg RAM, 1.7 GIG HD and IDE CDROM. FreeBSD runs well, I can telnet to it and I can ftp to the 'net. I've been able to install a few ports (Pine, Lynx and Emacs), send and receive mail, use the editor and even install the X server. However when I try to install Apache 1.2.4 or Apache current (and other ports) off the CDROM or 'net I get an error message that causes the installation to fail. I've looked at every file I can think of to find and correct the problem but I can't get past this error... After changing to /usr/ports/www/apache (/usr/ports/www/apache-current) and entering make at the bash# prompt I get the following >>Checksum ok for apache_1.3a1.tar.gz. ===>Building for apache-1.3a1 cd src; make PREFIX=/usr/local all Configuration older than Configuration.tmpl or doesn't exist. Consider copying Configuration.tmpl to Configuration, editing and rerunning Configure. If not, you will at least have to touch Configuration. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. bash# I've looked for something obvious with no luck. I don't know what else I can do. Any help with this problem will be much appreciated.

It has a dos partition, and I'm now trying to use the windows 95 swap file as a secondary swap (vnconfig, etc). But the DOS partition is too slow, and this makes the whole system a lot slower. I'd like to make the swap system sequential, instead of interleaved, and use the DOS swap ONLY when the other one is full. I've searched the swapinfo and kernel sources, and found the SW_SEQUENTIAL bit of the swdevt.sw_flags. But I could not see its usage anywhere else. Is it supported in FreeBSD 2.2-stable ?

How do you configure it, or what steps should be taken to make sure it is able to be mounted?

We are a Local Cable Company in Panama City, Panama, Central America, that started the deployment of cable modem services a few months ago. We are not and isp ourselves, hence we are using other isp channels to provide access to our customers. The main services we want to offer are: 1. FTP 2. Email 3. Web Server 4. Real Player 5. DNS After a couple of weeks of investigation, we are not sure about what type of hardware to buy for these services. We do know that we want a strong platform which we consider is being offered by Operating Systems like FreeBSD. However, we are not sure about the compatibility of FreeBSD with the variety of hardware options that we are looking for. For example, one of the solutions for our Email Server is a Pentium Based server with a SCSI-3 Raid Controller, and a backplane of hotpluggable hard drives.

One of them has a weird problem, though. Every time it boots, it goes into the menu which asks if I wish to use default kernel settings, use the visual mode configuration editor, or use the CLI editor. I'm not refering to the prompt one gets when booting with the '-c' option, I mean the full screen, first ever boot menu. I cannot seem to get rid of this. Recompiling the kernel, or indeed making a new one from scratch doesn't make a difference. This is a problem because the power does have a tendancy to go out here, and the server will sit at that prompt until a human comes along and hits 'q'. Suggestions? Thanks, Mike.

I'm attempting to install XFree86 on my Chembook 6300 laptop and I'm not having much sucess. I copied the necessary files to a directory in the /usr partition and unpacked them ("extract" didn't work, but whatever. i just used gunzip and tar). I ran xf86config and the basic vanilla video setup (640x480 16 color using X332VG16) because my NeoMagic 128 isn't directly supported. This didn't work. I then tried using XF86Setup through /stand/sysinstall, and while this seemed more promising (hey, it could display the very X-like thing it uses for setup), it got me no further. Every time I try to run X using "startx," I get the same error - "{blah blah blah} (--) VGA16: There is no mode definition named "640x480" Fatal server error: No valid modes found..." Since XF86Setup said that it started the server correctly (and the end of the configuration), I'm wondering if there something besides the configuration that I'm doing wrong... *briefly stands on soapbox* I am new to FreeBSD. By this I do _not_ mean "I've only been a Sun sysadmin for 10 years" new to FreeBSD. I mean that I've come directly from the world of Microsoft. I've been playing around with FreeBSD off and on for over a year now, and obviously haven't accomplished much. I really like FreeBSD and the atmosphere of it's users, but I'd just like to cast one more vote for the idea that FreeBSD doesn't have adaquate support for those of us with absolutely no experience with this stuff - no experience with Sun, with SYSV, with Linux, or with DOS.

Some things I'd try first though is make sure Com1 isn't being used by anything else, unlikely since you've probally got a Packard Bell system, but it needs to be checked anyways. Second thing, if by some miracle you have jumpers on the card, change the Com Port to 2 or 3.

Two things: 1. You REALLY should invest in a UPS. It's just a matter of time before you wish you had. 2. Most people specifically configure their machines so they WON'T reboot without human intervention to help identify when an intruder has attacked the system, needing a reboot to complete his dirty deed.

Use the IP address of your ISP and ping it: ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx that avoids using the nameserver and verifies that your ppp connection is in fact connected... if the ping packets are 100% lost, then you don't have a good ppp connection... then make sure nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (the second IP address from above) is in your resolv.conf ping that IP address to make sure it's valid and alive. then try host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx with the first IP address and then with the other. the host command will cause a name lookup at the nameserver. hope this helps a little...

But they can exist on the same machine, on different harddrive partitions. BSD is 100% Unix. It doesn't call itself UNIX because of a trademark issue. FreeBSD traces from the 4.4BSD release from the U.C.B. Usually the question of a "branded" system like Solaris or Linux is "Is it SysV compatible or BSD compatible?", those being the two main threads of Unix development.

And an Adaptec 1540 SCSI card. My computer rebooted itself and will not work properly after the reboot. It will boot up but takes a long time and in /var/log/messages it says sd0 (aha0:0:0) timed out adapter not taking commands, frozen aha0: MBO 02 and not 00 (free) right before the point at which it rebooted itself. I put in another adaptec 1540 with the IRQ, DMA, and BIOS address all set the same as the previous card but the computer would not boot. So I put the old card back in and am still getting the same thing. However the supposedly broken SCSI card seems fine when I go to the CTRL-A SCSI utility. Any Ideas?

I know it's old, but it still works great. I've searched the archives and cant find a solution, so before I possibly waste time on an upgrade just to find the fix isn't there, I thought I'd ask first. After spending hours trying to find lofs, I finally discovered that my only option for mounting an lofs is to mount a null fs instead. But apparently that doesn't even work right. The mount (8) man page says following: "rdonly The same as -r; mount the file system read-only (even the super-user may not write it). However, mounting with "-t null" seems to defeat the read-only option. If I "mount -t null -r /target /mount-point" or "mount -t null -o rdonly /target /mount-point" I can write to the mounted file system whether I'm root or not. Any clues?

I would like to modify the path so access to this program is the same as if you had installed it from the ports. I had installed this in the 2.2.2 version and the path was okay without modification The msql port is broken by the way and has been for some time. is there any plan to fix it? I want to install apache with the php module but it cant find msql Also 2.2.6 has the upgraded tkdesk. The version that was on the 2.2.2 cdrom had a feature where you click on an xterm icon in the menu bar of the and it would open an xterm widow in the directory you were in on the file manager window. this icon is missing in the newer version of tkdesk.

It is a Dell 300Mhz 64mb of ram US Robotics modem, 1 6.1 GB hard driver, etc. The standard computer that Dell sold about a year ago. Right now I have partitioned off my computer with Partition Magic into four partitions. The Boot Manager, two primary Win95 partitions, one mine and one my parents, and one extended partition containing a backup Win95 and a shared partition which is called D: in my partition and I think that's what it is in my parents. I'm going to add another HD and partition it off into a windows NT partition and a FreeBSD or Linux Partition. What I want to do is install FreeBSD and what I've gathered from your page is that I need to go to ftp://current.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ and download something from there. What I don't know so I was wondering if you could help me on that one too. Do I need to download all of the directory "current" or "3.0-19980825-SNAP"? And from there I've gathered that you put whatever it is you download into the c:/FreeBSD/(On my partition). Then you get the fdimage.exe and boot.flp and make a boot disk (which I've done already you explained that part very well) when I put the boot disk in I chose novice setup. Once I got to the part where it asks you about your hardware I was getting confused and I just guess what the things where, such as for input I put "Microsoft Bus Mouse" or something of the sorts. Put that's not the part that scarred me. When I got to the part that wanted me to select a partition and make it active I started wondering. If I make the FreeBSD partition the active one then Boot Manager will not come up. The only way I can think of to get the Boot Manager back up is put in the Partition Magic Rescue floppy in and then select the Boot Manager as the active partition. Please help me. I hope this e-mail has also explained to you what some of use non assembly code programmers have trouble with. I thought I was good with computers, I know some C++ and Java and Perl, but installing FreeBSD WOW!!!! now that's hard stuff!!!!

Reducing this to the simplest case, I do everything local by putting my local hostname into ~/.rhosts.

That's how I noticed you quoted everything twice. But you miss the point: I get 600 messages a day. I don't read them all, but with good, descriptive subjects (something I advocate in the message you're complaining about), I don't need to. Of course, people who send a subject like "HELP" are out of luck: I delete them without reading them. But you mention that in your messages.

I've repartioned my swap drive, creating a traditional partition of type 165 instead of using the "dangerously dedicated" method. This means my fstab now looks like this: > /dev/wd2s1b none swap sw 0 0 > /dev/wd2s1b /tmp mfs rw 0 0 Now mount_mfs succeeds. Is there a technical issue preventing mount_mfs from working when swap space is on a "dangerously dedicated" drive, or is this simply a problem with mount_mfs? Thanks, Sheldon.

Regards. Yes. To use a Microsoft remedy: "reinstall". But this time use Netscape instead of Explorer. Microsoft Internet Explorer is a product which has been deliberately created to violate contractual obligations. Don't use it. In this case, it's very likely that it's a "bug" designed to break compatibility with standards.

Three choices (the "free three"): MiniSQL: http://www.hughes.com.au/ MySQL: http://www.tcx.se/ PostgreSQL: http://www.postgresql.org/ All three are to be found in the ports. Not one of them implements ANSI SQL completely. Postgres is probably the most ambitious effort of the three, though it currently still lacks the maturity of the others (IMHO) as a product. Note that MiniSQL and MySQL are both burdened with licensing complications, should you wish to base a commercial product on them. Also, for the easiest way by far to integrate any of the above three into a Web-based front-end, see: http://www.php.net/ > Another issue is availability of ODBC drivers and APIs, as my web > programs will have to interface with this database. I do believe that that's available for all three, but you'll have to check for yourself. -- V Johann Visagie | Email: wjv@CityIP.co.za | Tel: +27 21 419-7878 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 26 03:32:22 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id DAA08283 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 26 Aug 1998 03:32:22 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from tyree.iii.co.uk (tyree.iii.co.uk [195.89.149.230]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id DAA08278 for ; Wed, 26 Aug 1998 03:32:18 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from nik@iii.co.uk) From: nik@iii.co.uk Received: from carrig.strand.iii.co.uk (carrig.strand.iii.co.uk [192.168.7.25]) by tyree.iii.co.uk (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA23633; Wed, 26 Aug 1998 11:31:25 +0100 (BST) Received: (from nik@localhost) by carrig.strand.iii.co.uk (8.8.8/8.8.7) id LAA10933; Wed, 26 Aug 1998 11:30:28 +0100 (BST) Message-ID: <19980826113027.A10883@iii.co.uk> Date: Wed, 26 Aug 1998 11:30:27 +0100 To: Bill Grunfelder , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Mirroring FreeBSD CVS Repository References: <199808251831.OAA00433@outland.cyberwar.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.91.1i In-Reply-To: <199808251831.OAA00433@outland.cyberwar.com>; from Bill Grunfelder on Tue, Aug 25, 1998 at 02:31:08PM -0400 Organization: interactive investor Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Tue, Aug 25, 1998 at 02:31:08PM -0400, Bill Grunfelder wrote: > Is there any documentation available (or if not, would anyone be willing to > provide information) on mirroring the FreeBSD CVS repository. I am looking > to setup a local CVS server... pkg/DESCR from ports/net/cvsup-mirror says This is the CVSup Mirror Kit, an easy way to set up a FreeBSD mirror site. When you type "make", it asks you a few questions about which files you want to mirror, where you want to put them on your disks, where you want to update them from, etc. After a "make install" your system will then be running as a nearly self-maintaining FreeBSD mirror site. It will even update its own configuration files from the master site automatically. This kit is not for people who just want to keep their own files up to date with CVSup.

My 2.2.7 CDs arrived right after I posted the question, and after installing that everything worked fine (not sure about 1024x768 on the external monitor, but all the other modes are there). I don't know if it was just something wierd in my 2.2.6 setup, or the new XFree libs, or what, but at least it works now. I got the XF86Config modelines from one of the links off the main web page for the NeoMagic driver (the URL is in my previous message). It's cut right down to supply just the values that actually work and not probe anything -- this probably helped to get it working. Hope this all is useful to someone else!

'Registered' was used in the sense of 'in the DNS', which samuel.netvigator.com wasn't, unless things were misbehaving at my end. I thought the original problem was that mail to @peter.netvigator.com bounced, presumably because the peter.netvigator.com domain doesn't exist. Am I confused? You're right though, the real answer is 'talk to your ISP'.

To fix it temporarily, type: lpd It's that simple. lpd is by default set to not run at system startup. To change this, make the line in /etc/rc.conf: lpd_enable="NO" # Run the line printer daemon. to say YES instead of NO. Since you are using an epson, you may want to look at ghostscript5 and apsfilter. FreeBSD uses Postscript as the default printing format. Epson uses a different format. Ghostscript interprets the Postscript into Epson format. Apsfilter makes the printing of various file types automatic (It's a print filter). They are both in /usr/ports/printing. Good luck!

I'm really considering this Cable Modem deal, but I'm not too sure which NIC I should purchase. Everything now-a-days is all plug-n-play which I really don't want to hassle with. I don't mind setting jumpers, IRQ's, or whatever. So basically I'm looking for an inexpensive NIC that is *very* FreeBSD compatible. heh, I pretty much want a no-brainer install. =D So the big question is: Which NIC do you guys recommend?

Essentially all that was needed was function prototyping (ANSI C) and some changes to utilize the kernel MBUF macros. A 'core' team member expressed the opinion that there was just not enough interest to justify reviving these. Are you all sure about that? X.25 networks are still used around the world and it would make FreeBSD that much more 'useful' if we were to include this stuff. Here at Comsat, we are planning on deploying a test FreeBSD system with the X.25 layer in order to evaluate transitioning one of our systems to this platform. But without 'core' support, it's not going to fly with our management. ---------------------------------- E-Mail: Marc Giannoni Date: 26-Aug-98 Time: 10:16:00 This message was sent by XF-Mail ---------------------------------- --------------End of forwarded message------------------------- ---------------------------------- E-Mail: Marc Giannoni Date: 26-Aug-98 Time: 10:47:35 This message was sent by XF-Mail ---------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 26 07:34:36 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id HAA08851 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 26 Aug 1998 07:34:36 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from bull.bullnet.co.uk (www.bullnet.co.uk [194.242.135.145]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id HAA08839 for ; Wed, 26 Aug 1998 07:34:27 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sales@bull-electrical.com) From: sales@bull-electrical.com Received: from jim (jim.bullnet.co.uk [194.242.135.143]) by bull.bullnet.co.uk (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id PAA32220 for questions@freebsd.org; Wed, 26 Aug 1998 15:32:42 +0100 Date: Wed, 26 Aug 1998 15:32:42 +0100 To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: colour cctv cameras for 99 pounds Message-Id: Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG As someone involved in security you may be interested in our fully cased colour cctv cameras from just 99 uk pounds composite output, 12vdc supply, world wide shipping.

What's happening here: The configuration program asks for details about your monitor (in this case, your LCD) and your video board (in this case, it's on the motherboard). Do you know what refresh rates (or range) your video subsystem supports ?? Do you know what horizontal frequencies it supports ?? See, this is a little weird, because an LCD isn't an analog device like a monitor is... What happens during startup is, the X server (X332VG16) probes the "card" do determine which dot clocks it supports and then it tries to match one of those up for each mode (640,800,1024, whatever). In your case, it can find a "union" between the sets. You basically have two choices: 1. Learn enough to "hand configure" XFree86. 2. Forget XFree86 and buy a commercial X windows package. One suggestion made in Greg Lehey's book for number 2 is Xinside. See them at www.xinside.com Do you have a copy of Greg's book, "The Complete FreeBSD" ?? Specifically, do you know how to run the Xserver with -probeonly and redirect the output to a file, so you can post it here ?? I went thru hell getting XFree86 to work on one of my two desktop machines, and the other STILL doesn't run yet... If I wanted limited video support, I would have kept using OS/2 !! If you post the monitor's vertical and horizontal specs and the output of -probeonly, I may be able to help. But it will take some time... You can get a demo of the xinside product at www.xinside.com/support/demo.html The laptop product cost $200.

Assuming this machine is a mail relay (i.e. lets mail in and out, rather than just forwarding), then have a look in your sendmail.cf for the Cw definition. Check it has, e.g. Cwlocalhost bar.com and any other other domains it's a mail relay for. If your sendmail.cf is more recent than mine (the .cf is old, but the sendmail is pretty new 8) ), you might have Cwlocalhost # file containing names of hosts for which we receive email Fw/etc/sendmail.cw instead, in which case put the rest in this file, one on each line IIRC. > Thanks, Steve > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 26 09:57:27 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA03465 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 26 Aug 1998 09:57:27 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from pop.uniserve.com (pop.uniserve.com [204.244.156.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id JAA03442 for ; Wed, 26 Aug 1998 09:57:22 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from wired@uniserve.com) Received: from ws8.office.uniserve.ca (workstation8) [204.244.187.72] by pop.uniserve.com with smtp (Exim 1.82 #4) id 0zBis3-0001cA-00; Wed, 26 Aug 1998 09:56:31 -0700 Message-ID: <003a01bdd112$6efc7fe0$48bbf4cc@workstation8.office.uniserve.ca> From: "Jordan Krushen" To: Subject: Complete FreeBSD (2.2.7) ISBN Date: Wed, 26 Aug 1998 09:56:12 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3110.5 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Does anyone have the ISBN and/or publication date of the latest version of The Complete FreeBSD (the one printed for 2.2.7-RELEASE)?

I believe I heard (read) it from the FreeBSD community on the security forum (freebsd-security). You might try asking there to get a feel for how many people agree with this assertion...

My first guess, is that the floppy is "empty". Microsuk likes to place "unformat" info in hidden blocks. Use either MSDOS format or mformat under FreeBSD (if you have a system available). If you format it under MSDOS, be sure to use the /u switch (I think that's right) to specify unconditional. You are using a 3.5 1.44MB floppy, right ??

Either upgrade to sendmail 8.9.1 (note that you'll need to explicitly specify machines for which you *want* to relay mail), implement Claus Assman's anti-relaying rulesets (this is what I did at home, running sendmail 8.8.8), or implement a different MTA that handles the non-relaying. In addition to these, you might want to consider implementing Wietse Venema's "TCP Wrappers" package. In particular, sendmail can be compiled with support to make use of the TCP Wrappers libraries, and thus log "interesting" events.

The purchase decision is *urgent*, so I would appreciate any assistance, in particular from those who have tried or investigated this combination. I've read the archives, and get the impression that it should work with FreeBSD, but all the posts have left me rather confused. I gather I need the CAM patches, plus a boot disc with CAM. But which OS version do I need or should I use? Can I use 2.2.6-Release? Discussion seems to have focussed on the 7890. Is there any issue with the support for the 7860 that runs the cd-rom drive?

You need to prevent unauthorised hosts from doing this. Pay a visit tohttp://www.informatik.uni-kiel.de/%7Eca/email/check.html and read the lot, but you really want the check_relay stuff. Basically you prevent e-mail from being sent via your mail server. Adam.

My question is this: has anyone looked into, or been discussing device driver support from other OS's? I realize that this is a non-trivial task and would probably require some fundamental changes, but it seems that doing so, at least with Linux, NetBSD and OpenBSD (possibly SCO) would be a great benefit for the same reasons as binary compatibility: hardware vendors would be more likely to publish drivers for this series of OS's, as well as those already ported to Linux, et. al., giving FreeBSD users a larger selection of hardware to choose from.

Assuming you're running sendmail 8.8.8, you can take several routes, including checking the ruleset additions in /etc/mail, to ruleset additions from several antirelay web sites. However, I suggest that you upgrade to sendmail 8.9.1. It's been in use for several sites I manage, and hasn't had any problems aside from some permission problems. Once you do that, relaying is turned off by default, and you can configure and use the access.db to allow relaying for those ip addresses that are on your network, and any other networks you own. configuring access.db allows you to ban sites based on domain name or ip address as well, so you can reject some of the spam sent to end users on your system. The only two gotcha's I've heard about so far are: 1) It does turn all relaying off by default, so it's not a dropin replacement: You will want to configure access.db and permit relaying by IP address if you relay outgoing email through this system. 2) by default it checks to make sure the mail domain used in MAIL FROM: does exist, so if you pass mail from minimally configured machines (they don't put a FQDN on email addresses), even if it is for local delivery, the mail will be rejected.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello everyone, I have a pII266 with tyan S1832DL motherboard, no scsi, only ide machine with mostly standard settings. I put it together myself, so there shouldn't be any surprises such as incompatibilities, yet... When I installed freebsd 2.2.7-release directly from a cd, I noticed that it only detects and uses 64 megs of memory, though I have one 128Mb dimm.. I have researched the problem, but the only solution I found was for linux, to put mem=128M in lilo file so kernel uses all memory. What is the alternative solution for freebsd? Sorry if the question was answered already. My other question is more of a comment, I don't know if anything can be done about it, the installer does not find a lot of ports, Qt-1.31, playmidi, some pgp version and a lot of others, and that is the CD from walnut creek, I was very surprised... Of course after the install, KDE doesn't work and some other binaries for X can not be found. Is it something I did wrong in the installer or is it a known problem? Thanks a lot for your help, Andriss ________________________________________ Andriss@ArGate.com http://ArGate.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Aug 26 12:34:51 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA01151 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 26 Aug 1998 12:34:51 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from freebie.neuronet.com.my ([202.184.153.29]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id MAA01145 for ; Wed, 26 Aug 1998 12:34:49 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from panda@peace.com.my) Received: (qmail 249 invoked from network); 26 Aug 1998 19:21:35 -0000 Received: from models.com.my (HELO bimbo.models.com.my) (202.184.153.18) by freebie.neuronet.com.my with SMTP; 26 Aug 1998 19:21:35 -0000 Message-Id: <3.0.32.19980827032431.00730aa0@mail.peace.com.my> X-Sender: panda@mail.peace.com.my X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0 (32) Date: Thu, 27 Aug 1998 03:24:31 +0800 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: chas Subject: SCSI card is killing my NIC. Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have a FBSD box which has been running very well on FBSD 2.2.6 I'm now trying to install a first SCSI card to it so that I can attach a tape drive but whenever the SCSI card is present, all networking either : (1) dies or (2) slows down to 10000+ ms pings. I've attached the dmesg output in the hope that someone can spot what might be the problem. (I know the 3Com 3509 is a bit dodgy with FBSD - eg. I need a script to ping out from the box after any restart otherwise the machine remains invisible to the network ! After this ping, everything works fine... that's been the case with all my 3com NICs !). However, adding the SCSI just kills the NIC totally - no matter of pinging out gets it out of sloth/zombie mode.

I installed FreeBSD 2.2.7 on our server, but I have a little problem with e-mail...
If I send an e-mail to a list from eudora or pine, the sendmail send it a lot of times for each person..

For example if I send an e-mail to: gus, john, alfred

The sendmail send the same mail three or more times to each user in the list...
I think that is something with the mail queue..

Can somebody help me...

please send response to: gus@academ02.maz.itesm.mx

thanks...

I think that is something with the mail queue.. It would be really nice for more details. Since you're using Eudora, I assume you're sending it to the FreeBSD box from outside. In that case, let's see what messages appear in /var/log/maillog. Also, *please* don't send HTML, send text.

This still sounds a bit vague, but I think you're saying "Will FreeBSD run on Compaq?". If so, the answer is a qualified "yes". I've heard of a number of problems, but most times it works fine. > That's what I want to know about. Windows products don't work well > on my Compaq. Well, Windows products don't work well, period. If they're doing particularly badly on your machine, you might have problems which affect operating systems, such as FreeBSD, as well. It's probably worth your while to mention what machine you have, and what the problems with Microsoft are.

You'll have to rebuild a kernel, as far as I can see, with the additional option "SC_BAD_FLICKER", which stops this. I'm not sure when this was added, so you might have to upgrade (using cvsup), and then make your world and kernel. (I had this problem with 2.2.5, never saw the option in the LINT file, but when I went to 2.2.7-STABLE, I saw it, and added it, and it works perfectly now) Read the handbook (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/) sections on making new kernels, and using cvsup to upgrade.

They must both be primary partitions though, if you want to boot from one and then the other. DOS' fdisk should be fine, if you don't want to move data, else I assume fips can do things like moving entire partitions.

BUT, you might like to check out the X server available from www.xinside.com, also known as www.xig.com They have a downloadable demo that you could try, and if you like it, their server only costs $100. That's not much money to avoid waiting and wrestling with XFree86.

I downloaded their server today and got better results on the one machine that I had minor success with, but they don't support my video board in the other machine. When they do, I'll probably spring for it. The demo was REALLY EASY to install and configure...

I personally also like it because I can now install PC-Pine on those computers that I can't put a real operating system on, and for the basic features I use, it's good enough.

Question #3 I find myself in the position of needing ICQ. Their homepage dosen't have anything for Unix at all, and from what I've seen of the port collection, there isn't one. Is there a Linux version I can use? Question #4, in an attempt to quit using 95 100%, what can I use to run my HP4C scanner, possibly in conjunction with The Gimp? Thanks for you help!

AFAIK the alias-option in user-ppp is a 1:n-NAT. The internal hosts on your 192.168.168-net are being translated to one IP (your public one) and a port-number for each connection. That means, "yes, if there is no firewall and no filters preventing it, anyone could get to your internal network, by just trying your public IP and some port- numbers". And "no, if there is no firewall and no filters installed on your gateway, there is nothing that blocks traffic to your internal network".

Try to read the corresponding chapters of the the handbook and the installation guide `INSTALL.TXT' in the 2.2.7-RELEASE directory. 1. You have to create a free partition on your harddisk. Either you've to install W95 too from scratch or you try to split your W95 partition. Use `fips' from the `tools' directory for a FAT16 partition or buy :-( Partition Magic for a VFAT32 partition to do that. Probably you will want to run the X Window system under FreeBSD; thus the new FreeBSD partition shouldn't be smaller than about 500 MB (to my mind). More disk space can't be wrong, of course. 2. Download `fdimage.exe' and `2.2.7-RELEASE/floppies/boot.flp'. Write the boot floppy image to a formatted floppy disk using `fdimage' and boot the floppy. The installation program will guide you through a lot of necessary steps. I think you should prefer an installation by FTP. Hope that helps a little bit.

One de0 NIC works fine in a host. But if there are two ore more NICs (de0) in a router, multicasting is not working correctly anymore. In this particular case I have a Pentuim PC with two de0 interfaces. One of the interfaces is working fine. The other one is not transmitting any multicast messages at all (either signaling or data). After I use tcpdump (which turns the interface into promiscuous) I also receive multicast messages on this interface. Since erverything is working fine with two 3COM NICs in the PC it shouldn't be a problem caused by mrouted. For me it looks more like a problem in the de0 driver. Has anyone had similar experiences or knows a solution for this problem ?

I am using PMMail98, which is shareware that I have paid a license fee for to run under OS/2 as well as NT. Since I have money invested, I'm not likely to ditch it, even for something free. What I believe you are complaining about is where my word wrap occurs. PMMail has several options, and this message will be reflowed to 72 chars at send. This will probably satisfy your valid complaint. As for your invalid complaint: I worked at Gould in WorldWide Tech support as a hardware support engineer, supporting Gould's real-time OS (MPX-32) as well as their Unix (UTX-32) for five years, ending in 1991 when they were bought by Encore. Living in South Florida, I only had two choices for employment; leave South Florida (and thereby my child, since I, wonder of all wonders, don't have custody), or seek employment at IBM as a dirt bag contractor and work on OS/2. I really enjoyed OS/2 and still have it at home. It's really a shame IBM and Lotus couldn't handle the home market. I love unix and am thrilled to be using it for free now. But the fact is, I can't depend on unix to put food on my table. So I am agnostic as much as possible. Each OS has it's strengths, or it couldn't continue to exist, due to lack of revenue. I think NT sucks almost as bad as the other Microsuk products. But I can't put my head in the sand. I really don't need an arogant diatribe from anyone regarding unix. You couldn't possibly appreciate it any more than I do. Besides, some of these newer mailers have some really cool features, even if your older mailer doesn't support them, such as html formatting. This is way cool. Are you guys throwing stones at it merely because your mailer doesn't support that feature ?? Shame on you. You remind me of senile citizens. Instead of whining about the newest features, you should try to incorporate these into unix programs and do them at least one better.

Unless I'm missing some major part of history, qmail is a mail transport agent (like sendmail, exim), and not a mail reader, which pine is. qmail is really nice on FreeBSD now that there's a port, and exim is quite nice too, if you don't want to run sendmail. For mail reading programs, mutt is really cool, elm slightly less so, and I don't much like pine (although the inbuilt news facility is nice).

I think most of us use console-mode mailers, simply because they're faster and easier to use than their graphical equivalents. We further don't need HTML formatting in our mails, we can express ourselves pretty well with words, most of the time, and if we really wanted HTML formatting to express something, we'd give a URL to a web page, since that is where HTML belongs. > Instead of whining about the newest features, you should try to > incorporate these into unix programs and do them at least one better. Incorporating HTML formatting into a text-mode client is rather silly, for the most part. Incorporating HTML formatting into a graphical client would be a much better idea, and there is work being done in this area. For now, however, I think that when we, as FreeBSD users, talking amongst ourselves, and with people interested in our Operating System (and it's an amazing one, at that), we'd prefer to talk in words and not a whole bunch of tags telling us what colour backgrounds to use, or text colouring and effects to produce.

In the man pages, at the very least. man chmod, for one, and chown too. These should tell you how to change file permissions to have files run as root. If you don't understand these concepts, however, you may have slight problems writing programs to use them properly.

It came across as the typical, arroganance that fanatics have about their system, whether they be fanatics about Macs, Winblows, unix, Solaris, etc. One of the points I'm trying to make is that we live in a diverse, pluralistic world.

And I'm simply trying to say that you're ignoring a significant trend in this industry. Many people, other than you and Greg, like the idea of someone sending them html formatted email. It's damn convienient to be able to click on a link within an email message. I receive many emails from this list with such links.

I don't understand. You seem to be caught in a time warp. You aren't interested in where the majority are headed. Html formatted email is not going away. If you don't like html formatted email, I'm telling you, you're in a shrinking minority. Look how popular the html formatted email is from many of the large lists. What I meant about the newest features, do them one better, was that unix programmers should incorporate html capabilities within their mailers too. And see if you can add something in that vein, that will cause the Winblows mailers to get jealous. I have sent email to the PMMail team, and they are thinking about porting to a unix platform. I strongly suggested FreeBSD. I hope others will send email to them also. I love free software, but I'm ready, willing, and able to license reasonably priced shareware, that's stable, really supported, and is competitively featured compared to retail offerings. I have bought Lotus and IBM products in the past, only to have them not fix problems that I have emailed to them. The PMMail team actually fixes bugs that you email to them (features actually get added too).

Please don't continue to think that "FreeBSD users" are people that use FreeBSD exclusively. I've installed two machines at home with FreeBSD, but I'm still using PMMail on NT and OS/2, like I have for the last several years. When I had seen Greg mention html is for web pages, not email, I was specifically interested in defending URLs appearing in email. You're mailers may support URL tage without supporting html, but on other platforms/mailers, most people got both capabilities at once, I believe, since their in a graphical env. Let me get on my soapbox, just for a moment, and then I'll stop: If you want to get FreeBSD into shops where they are biased towards BillGatesWare, try the following: 1. See if they'd like to turn an old 486/33 into a PPP Internet link that can be shared by everyone in the office, instead of buying MODEMs for everybody. If they need more bandwidth than a V.90 MODEM can handle, configure an ISDN link. 2. See if they's like a DNS that can cache names from the Internet and resolve all local names as well. 3. See if they'd like a free web server, for a local intranet, that could later easily be hooked into the Internet 4. See if they'd like a firewall made from older machines, no longer viable as desktop GUI platforms. There are many, many more opportunities. Instead of bashing Microsuk, let's convert people. Little by little. Painless and stable. Viva la FreeBSD...

I think you have to think about the lowest common denominator in such things, and that will be standard text. URL's are fine, they aren't HTML.

I've installed two machines at home with FreeBSD, I don't think that, especially since I work in a multiple OS environment, and use Windows 95 and especially Windows NT workstation quite a bit. I was just thinking that the FreeBSD users would be more likely to understand why HTML formatted email is not the prefered method. > but I'm still using PMMail on NT and OS/2, like I have for the last > several years.

URL tags are HTML (or whatever markup language you want), such as ''. Saying "Look at the FreeBSD webpage at http://www.freebsd.org/" is probably more helpful (due to the ease in which the eye/sensory perception picks up something when it's not enclosed by something else) in most cases. AFAIK, most graphical emailers, especially for Windows, will automatically turn that into a link to the page. > Let me get on my soapbox, just for a moment, and then I'll stop: > If you want to get FreeBSD into shops where they are biased towards > BillGatesWare, try the following: > 1.

These are all already being done, I'm actively promoting FreeBSD as much as I can in my area of the world, and I know there are many other people who do so. However, I think that good "advertising" we get from newspapers, journals and similar sources are slightly more useful, and also the existance of FreeBSD consulting and maintenance companies make a lot of a difference. Companies prefer to spend money on something and receive some sort of assurance that somebody will fix it when it goes wrong, even if they could otherwise get it for free and be assured that it will just work and they'll never have problems. This is more a discussion for the FreeBSD advocacy list though, I imagine. > There are many, many more opportunities. Instead of bashing Microsuk, > let's convert people. Little by little. Painless and stable. I don't see much bashing of Microsoft these days, except by the more zealot-like Linux people I know. This is not to say that Linux people are generally like that, I just know a few. I know a FreeBSD "zealot too", and, of course, a Windows NT zealot (who has almost convinced me that Microsoft NT Workstation has a place in world). > Viva la FreeBSD... Indeed, but it's probably not the answer to everything.

That ISDN line is used as the gateway to our ISP for a network of around 5-10 systems. It is a full-time dedicated ISDN line, so on the BSD box I run: ppp -ddial seanetISDN0 Now...we have it connected to a serial port with a 16550A UART which limits the bandwidth a bit (to the 115200 max for the serial port), and it seems to work OK. In the NT box we had it connected to a ByteRunner TC-200 [a 2 port 16650 serial card...the 9 pin connector ("COMB") is setup as COM3/IRQ5 and the 25 pin connector ("COMA") is disabled]. On that card we had the clock multiplier jumper set to double the speed (i.e. system says 115200 and the card uses 230400 to talk to the modem). I think we're using the same cabling we were on the NT box. So...the problem is...when I have the modem hooked up to the COM3 port, it fires up the connection to our ISP and runs for a while just fine. Then after a little while (a few to 10 minutes or so), it seems to just stop. I'm running tcpdump -li tun0 and I see lines for traffic trying to go out, but I don't see the send data light flashing or the receive data light flashing. It's just stuck somehow, somewhere. When that happens, I do a 'kill' on the ppp process, switch the cable back to COM1, go change the ppp.conf from cuaa2 to cuaa0, fire it back up and it works. I've tried various tricks of enabling/disabling lqr & pred1 in my ppp.conf; enable/disable the COM4 port on the ByteRunner card. I'll append my ppp.conf to this message. Any ideas on how to get this working via the ByteRunner card? -- Scott Blachowicz sab@seanet.com my ppp.conf file: default: disable lqr deny lqr disable pred1 deny pred1 set socket 3000 quoteme set authname USERNAME set authkey PASSWORD set redial 10.5 5 set device /dev/cuaa0 set speed 115200 ##set log Phase Chat Connect Carrier LQM Link Command set log +phase +chat +connect +lqm +command set escape 0 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" ATM0E1%C1%M3&D2&Q5S46=138S48=7S37=11 OK-AT-OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 30 CONNECT" seanetISDN0: set phone "XXX-XXX-XXXX|XXX-XXX-XXXX" set timeout 0 set dial "TIMEOUT 70 \"\" AT OK-AT-OK AT&F1*V2=5S67=0S68=64S69=0*D0=1*P=3 OK AT&F1E0Q0V1&A3&C1&D2S0=0 OK ATS7=55S19=0L3M1&M5&K1&H1&R2&I0B0X4 OK \\dATDT\\T CONNECT" set ifaddr 199.181.167.103 199.181.164.1/0 add 0 0 HISADDR seanetISDN2: set device /dev/cuaa2 set phone "XXX-XXX-XXXX|XXX-XXX-XXXX" set timeout 0 set dial "TIMEOUT 70 \"\" AT OK-AT-OK AT&F1*V2=5S67=0S68=64S69=0*D0=1*P=3 OK AT&F1E0Q0V1&A3&C1&D2S0=0 OK ATS7=55S19=0L3M1&M5&K1&H1&R2&I0B0X4 OK \\dATDT\\T CONNECT" set ifaddr 199.181.167.103 199.181.164.1/0 add 0 0 HISADDR To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Aug 27 11:42:31 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA28863 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 27 Aug 1998 11:42:31 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from gutenberg.uoregon.edu (gutenberg.uoregon.edu [128.223.56.211]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA28791 for ; Thu, 27 Aug 1998 11:42:06 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sharding@gutenberg.uoregon.edu) Received: from localhost (sharding@localhost) by gutenberg.uoregon.edu (8.9.1/8.9.1) with SMTP id LAA00400; Thu, 27 Aug 1998 11:45:15 -0700 (PDT) Date: Thu, 27 Aug 1998 11:45:15 -0700 From: Sean Harding Reply-To: Sean Harding To: Tim Yaeger cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Monochrome Monitor and Card In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Thu, 27 Aug 1998, Tim Yaeger wrote: > Just a question, can Freebsd 2.2.6 be installed on a machine with > a mono monitor and card if I am not planning on using X-Windows?

The first step I'd take is to upgrade to FreeBSD 2.2.7-Release. Version 2.0 is very old now (by software standards) and I think it precedes the Y2K audit in any case.

	When you get to the label editor, use the automatic layout feature.

No, this finds all files named exactly "bozo".

To find all files with 'bozo' in their names, you need to use a

	find . -name '*bozo*'

Quoting usually needed, so that the regex is not expanded by the shell.

hosts.equiv never works for root.  Only .rhosts is used.

Check the permissions on .rhosts.  Should be 600 (rw-------) or
400 (r--------), and owned by root, group wheel.

[listread@castor listread]$ ls -la /root/.rhosts
-rw-------  1 root  wheel  - 124 Aug  3 01:39 /root/.rhosts

Be sure that the contents of .rhosts are correct. If you use
the names of machines, be sure that they can be resolved to IP
numbers by the host having the .rhosts file.

	No, there is not. We took a vote and the year 2000 has been cancelled
due to lack of interest. :)  See http://www.freebsd.org/y2kbug.html for
more information.

I was hoping actually that someone out there

Compaq and had this problem or that problem." 
Or "I installed it...  It works fine."

If you instist... :-)  I have a 4764 model. 
I've had it for 18 mo.s or so.  It has 166 MHz
processor, 32 MB RAM, and a 2.5GB HD, just to
name a few things.  I'm going to have to yank
off the case cover and probe and dig to get more
specific.  Compaq's documentation leaves
something to be desired.

I believe the machine must have come with Ver. A
of '95.  I've seen more freezes, blue screens,
and illegal operations than any one human being
should.  I completely reformatted my hard drive
before I did a full install of '98.  The major
problem with that was it wouldn't pick up my
internal modem on COM2.  There were no jumpers
to reset on the modem/sound card, and even after
applying a patch from the Compaq site, I STILL
can't get into the set-up.  I considered
detaching the HD to boot directly into BIOS, but
totally detaching your HD is just BEGGING for
misery sometimes...  I'm running an external
modem I borrowed from work on COM1, and I REALLY
don't want to go out and buy an external to try
to patch up that problem.

Now it works okay, but it will do weird
things...  My icons on my bar at the bottom
right of the screen will all disappear except
the volume icon and I have to reboot.  After I
tell it to reboot (yes, I hit Start, Shut Down,
Reboot), I still have to do 2 Ctrl-Alt-Dels to
get it to finish.  Everything disappears but the
wallpaper and it hangs.  

My warranty is up, and even before it ran out,
Compaq tech support was USELESS.  Any time I had
a problem, their solution was simply to blame it
on the last piece of software I had installed.
*sigh*  

My last-ditch effort will be quick-restoring my
hard drive and upgrading the Win '95.  It's very
possible that Win '98 just DOES NOT like my
hardware.  It's probably pretty cheap stuff,
anyways.  I'm sure my internal modem isn't the
best on the market, especially since it's one of
those modem+soundcard in one wonders...

Needless to say, I am going to BUILD my next box
and make it generic as possible!

Regards and thanks,

Georgiana

	I'm confused by this. Why does it seem so?  And are you sure that you

	If you actually mean passwords, my guess is that DES is installed on
that machine. You want to rebuild or reinstall the system without that
option. If you mean usernames, it's fairly simple to rebuild the system
to use > 8 character usernames. Either write the list or write me
privately and I'll give you info on that. 

Good luck,

We (whistle) have a proprietary driver for that card that we cannot give
out as we had to sign non-disclosures to get the info to write it. 

Unfortunatly you don't have much other option than to either get something
like a bitsurfer, or an ascend as there are no
drivers for internal ISDN cards outside of europe.

You create one in your home directory. "~/.xsession"
eg:

	% cd
	% cat > .xsession
	fvwm95
	[Control-D]
	% chmod a+rx .xsession

Hello,

While doing some tests on the integrity of my swap partition recently I
seem to have messed up the BSD bootstrap thingy (when I try and boot
from hard drive, the computer locks solid, no boot: prompt).  Luckily
I have a boot disk, I can boot from the HD if I type 0:wd(0,a)kernel
from its boot: prompt.

I'm running 2.2.6-RELEASE and the harddrive is "dangerously dedicated".

is this the correct command to restore the bootstrap?

# disklabel -B wd0

As an aside, would fdisk /mbr wipe out my partition information or other
such damage on a FreeBSD dedicated drive?

Thanks,
Skye

I installed 2.2.7-RELEASE at the beginning of August.
I like it -- it's great.  BUT, I've been having random
system crashes since the installation. This isn't good,
since I'm actually trying to get some work done here.

Anybody have a clue or seen behavior like this?
Are there any known hardware problems that might be
causing this?

symptoms:  
system hangs. No panic. No core dump.
completely unresponsive to keyboard, mouse, network, etc.
If the disk (IDE) was selected, it stays selected (r/w/ light
stays on).
  Uptimes generally ~3-6 hours (seems to be getting shorter)
with min=1hour, max=6 days (of heavy use, even)
  It seems (completely subjectively) to happen during high IP traffic
and high disk-traffic times. but don't trust this observation:)
  Generally, everything is fine on reboot, but it once died
in the middle of vipw, leaving me a mangled pwd database. That was fun.

Attempted solutions: 

Re-seat the processor & memory :)  Didn't help.
Rebuilt the kernel a few times, trying to remove all
unused devices and options. No noticable effect.
Removed all but the video card, and all the associated device drivers.
No effect.
   Adding the DDB option to the kernel didn't ever break me out to
the debugger, either.
  I'm working on scrounging the cables for a serial console,
but I doubt this will give me any more information.

I'm also planning on going to 2.2-STABLE, which may have
some bugs ironed out (but I can't figure out how to get a report
of mods/updates between dates or releases, even. The 
www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi queries can only get me this stuff
for individual files.  Can't I get CVS commit messages for a whole
sub-tree?)


The machine passes all startup hardware & memory tests, for what
that's worth.


Machine configuration:
OS:  FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE
M/B:  ASUS P2L97 (440LX chipset)  (w/ the lates BIOS version)
PII 300MHz
128Mb 10ns sdram
IBM 8.4G IDE hard drive  (FreeBSD on slice 2, 6Gb)
generic S3-Virge video
Soundblaster AWE64
Rockwell Kflex 56K modem
3Com 900  ethernet


Thanks for any info you might have.

Fully repartitioned a 3815M hard drive and installed
FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE with a good, error free install,
disk dedicated to FBSD

wincrud et al running on disk zero, 514M. Half of the
Boot Manager works. F1 boots win, F5 just gives F5 again,
repeatedly.

Read the docs, read the FAQ, tried everything: Deliberately
reinstalled win to wipe out the boot manager, then in DOS:
bootinst.exe boot.bin with success.

Have done it the second way: boot install floppy, custom
installation, partition, write, MBR, also successul. Same
result.

Made a fixit floppy: Did disklabel -B /dev/wd0s1 (wd0s1 correct)
which returns "Bad pack magic number (label is damaged,
or pack is unlabeled)".

Any suggestions from anywhere would be greatly appreciated.

$ms is in for a final and complete divorce when this box is
up and running.

Well, I'd like to say that the best way to find out if it's compatible
with your hardware is to download the 1 disk floppy from the Internet,
and boot it.  It has a GENERIC kernel on it that will probe for
devices.  This alone will probably give you more technical detail than
any Compaq doc you'll ever find.

If you don't already own it, let me STRONGLY suggest that you buy the
"The Complete FreeBSD" book.  It helped me a lot.  You'll be using it
for a long time, even as newer versions of FreeBSD come along.

Yep, it works.  Magnus Nilsson  also let me know.

Did you install BootEasy on the second hard drive as well with bootinst.exe?

Did you mark the partition containing FreeBSD's root filesystem as
bootable (A or Active)?

man 1 bash, skim down to the "PROMPTING" section. You'll probably want
something like: 

export PS1="[\u@\h] \w$"

in your "~/.bashrc" file(s).

Pine keeps it's postponed messages in "~/mail/postponed-msgs".  If you
don't mind loosing what's in it, just rm it.

There are 3 ICQ ports afaik; licq, micq and xicq, all in the ports/net.
If they're not listed in the ports collection on your machine, you may
want to use cvsup /usr/ports to bring yourself up to date, or you can
install the pre-compiled packages.

Have you tried setting your hard drive to LBA mode? FreeBSD won't boot
if it exsists above the 1024th cylinder on the hard drive.

Stephen,

You ... are a very excellent individual.
I must thank you for sharing.  This bit of knowldge has made my day.
I can now view the FreeBSD site.
I have been mulling this over a little too long and it had been spining 
me in circles.

Thank you again,

Rich

I've fixed the mutilation in the rest of the message.  See
http://www.lemis.com/email.html for suggestions on how to avoid this
kind of mutilation.

Yes, but that wouldn't help.  Compaq makes a wide range of machines
with a wide range of peripherals.  Just because it works on one
doesn't mean it will work on yours.  Thus the qualified "yes".

I don't insist.  But if you want any specific information, you're
going to have to mention it.

Hmmm.  I don't know the models, but maybe somebody else does.  Is the
disk IDE?

It's quite possible you'll have the same kind of problem with
FreeBSD.  Stick in a boot disk and see.  You don't need to install
FreeBSD to check that.

Understood.  What kind of modem is installed?  Is it from Compaq?

Ah.  Yes, you could have trouble with FreeBSD in that case.  Is it a
Winmodem?  In that case it's definitely not supported, and never will
be.  If you don't know, just try the boot disk.

Yes, it's a pity that Compaq seems to have so many compatibility
problems.

Subject: 3c515 or *any* ISA 10/100 mbps network card support?
Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk
X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG


We make ISA based cards which we are running under FreeBSD and need a nic
which can switch between 10 mbps and 100 mbps.  We are using large passive
backplane systems and cannot run a hybrid (pci/isa) motherboard.

Are there any 10/100 ISA network cards which are presently supported?
Has anyone been working on a driver for the 3c515?  I am willing to
contribute my time towards the development of such a driver if so.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hello all!

I need to get a makefile written in the spirit of FreeBSD make to work
on Solaris. I have goen as far as to try to compile the FreeBSD make on
solaris with gcc (2.8.1), but I am not sure how to handle err.h. And
still, it is probably easier to rewrite the makefile for gmake or
another make flavor that Solaris has. I have tried /usr/ccs/bin/make
/usr/xpg4/bin/make and gnu make, but to no avail.

The structures that give me problem look like this:

CONFIGFILE?=/usr/opt/workdir/ppbuild.conf

all: config build

.MAIN: all                           <<<<<<<<<<< Here

.if exists(${CONFIGFILE})           
.include "${CONFIGFILE}"
.endif

.if exists(subdirs.in)
SUBDIRS!= cat subdirs.in
.endif

...etc...

This is what happens:

/usr/xpg4/bin/make -DD      (or /usr/ccs/bin/make)
...snip...
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> End of makefile /usr/share/lib/make/make.rules
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Reading makefile Makefile
CONFIGFILE?  = /opt/workdir/ppbuild.conf
all:    config build 
.MAIN:  all 
make: Fatal error in reader: Makefile, line 12: Unexpected end of line
seen


Very similar with gnu make. I must admin I'm not quite sure what the
makefile is doing all the time, makefiles are not speciality... :-}
It should traverse a tree and compile everything and do some
preprocessing. 

If someone can help me with a hint, I'd be grateful.

Regards,
Palle

Solaris version,for what it matters:
SunOS solist 5.6 Generic_105181-06 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-1

Yes. If you are running ppp there are a variety of ways to do this. You
can also run kermit or some other communication software.

Perhaps you removed libXpm? Perhaps your libs are messed up. Reinstall
xpm.

OK folks...when I decided to go all FreeBSD I neglected something....mailing

list of addresses and other info on floppy disk.. I need to import this list
into a database and from there print mailing labels. MS Access would do this
easially, but is there arything for FreeBSD to do this. I would hate to
re-install windows just for this......help please.

 That's interesting; because I have no problem running aim.

 I'm using aim_generic.sh; with the jdk1.1.6.V98-8-14.tar.gz
recently available from http://www.freebsd.org/java

 It's working great for me!

1. My modem is on COM3 (sio2) and has IRQ 7 and port 3E8.
 
2. I'm trying to use ftp to install FreeBSD on a 3.4 G wd drive set up with EZ-Drive 
software, with partitions of 2.1G (boot/master) - drive c and 2.1G - drive e and 
origional 160M drive as a slave - drive d on Dell 486 ME. DOS 6.02 on c; Windows 95 on 
e; nil yet on d. CD-ROM on f. 

3. I've made the boot floppie and have sorted out all conflicts but two:
my system shows the keyboard and mouse both on the same port 'though with different 
IRQ's and registers conflict.

re 1.  FreeBSD expects com3 to have IRQ 5 (but I have soundblaster on 5) not 7; though 
the port is as expected. No com3 option is present in the ftp screen for installation of 
FreeBSD. Do I custom configure first and then will com3 and the modem be found?

re 2. Will FreeBSD install with this setup?

re 3.  Can I leave this port address conflict?

many thanks for your time,

Sincerely, 
Catherine Odlum

I recently changed the permission of the hidden temp files in /var/mail (
while experimenting with a new pop server ) and then I changed the
permissions back. Now no one can access their e-mail.

Can anyone help ???

Those are only temporary files, just rm *.pop and the popper will create
new ones as it needs them.  I had the same problem when I first stumbled
into /var/mail  I'm notorius for mucking things up so that I have to fix
them. *whistles innocently*

I am trying out cucipop from the FreeBSD 2.2.5 CD-ROM ( as an alternative
to popper which has some nasty security bugs ).

After you have retreived your e-mail ( eg. with eudora ), you get the
message CAN'T LOCK MAIL BOX or something like that. And the e-mail
messages stay in the mail box.

Can anyone help me ???


Thanks & Regards, Brendan...

I recently removed a user via vipw and then added them back later.

Now they can't use any commands that relly on shared libraries.

They also can't do a "who", it sais something like utmp premission denied
or something like that.

I'm having a bad day, can anyone help ????

Thanks & regards, Brendan...

Hello,

I posted this to the Blender mailing list but I do not know how many
FreeBSD users are there. The problem might be more related to FreeBSD than
Blender.

Anyway - the problem: I downloaded the blacksmith tutorial and tried to
run it ('blender blacksmith/blacksmith.blend'). After pressing the "ANIM"
button, blender freezes for about 10 seconds and exits with the error
message 'Malloc returns nill: len=768 in Tile3'.

Did anybody else run into this?

BTW: The machine is an AMD K6-2-300 running FreeBSD 2.2.7-STABLE.
Blender's version is 1.36.

	Roland

When you see the message about "hardware collapsed" you must read
everything on the screen more closely. The instructions are there. You
must eliminate conflicts before you start probing.

You probably have a problem with your user config files. Do you have a
file named .xsession in your home directory? What is your window manager
of choice? Is the window manager of choice listed in the .xsession?

Read 'man X' and 'man xdm'. Don't just skim them... read them, even if you
can't fully understand everything in there. There is a lot of help
regarding invoking X in various ways.

Look in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/xdm-errors for troubleshooting info.

The version I have (the original printing) shows the ISBN
1-57176-216-7 in both places.  I suspect that the differing ISBN is
due to a reprint (I've forgotten the details of ISBNs, but they're not
overly good for identifying books exactly for this reason.

WC supplies the book with the latest version of FreeBSD.  If you
recently got 2.2.6, you should complain to your supplier.

I have three IDE devices: 300 Mb disk, 5 Gb disk, CD-ROM.  I have an IDE 
card with two IDE connectors (one marked VLB, the other ISA).  I'm trying 
to figure out what settings I should have in my kernel.  Do I have two 
controllers with devices on each?  Or one controller with all the devices 
under that?

I have the system working with the 5G disk and cd-rom.  I'm trying to add 
the 330 mb disk.  Why?  Because it's there. 

I'd tried adding wdc1 but the system wouldn't boot.  Then I tried adding 
wd1 under wcd0.  That gave me two images of my 5Gb disk. (for a rough idea 
of what I actually did, see the bottom of the webpage:

I'm getting a lot of "silo overflows" on the serial port (sio, 16550A, at
57600bps) I use for my 56k PPP dialup.

I found no IRQ conflicts, and both serial ports exhibited the same
behavior, so I halved, then quartered, the high "water mark"
(RS_IHIGHWATER) in sys/i386/isa/sio.c, to try to give the FIFO "more
attention".  There has been so significant reduction in the number of
overflows.

Does anyone have any suggestions?  The machine is a 200MHz/256k P6 (Tyan)
running 2.2.6-RELEASE.

thanks much..

[ I have CC'ed this to -hackers in hope to bring someone's attention up ]

The following results are true for -stable:

PCI (YeP) cards are not working (they are constantly produce `silo overflows').
ISA (Ye) cards with 1.x revisions work well.
ISA (Ye) cards with 2.x revisions don't work at all.

Also, there are two versions of Serial Module (SM and SM-II).
SM modules are supported by the native FreeBSD driver.
SM-II modules are supported only by the driver supplied by Cyclades Corp.

At least, it SHOULD BE noted in src/release/sysinstall/help/hardware.hlp.

Yes, with patches found at their web. We recently installed a
Cyclom-8YeP/DB25, works fine.

Hi

I want APOP support with FreeBSD (2.2.6), so I've got the latest
Qualcomm's 2.53 qpopper.

Has anyone succed to compile and use it ?
I'm having difficulties, get "segmentation faults" ;(
There is something on FreeBSD crypt, should I use only libdescrypt
libraries with qpopper ? Even so, please see below.

It's hard to compile, "configure" does not
see for example my /usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib with
gdbm.h and libgdbm.a ;) Despite it, I have compiled qpopper,
though "popauth -init" succeed with GDBM, "popauth -user xyz" fails with
"Segmentation fault".

ktrace shows this:
 27199 popauth  CALL  close(0x5)
 27199 popauth  RET   close 0
 27199 popauth  CALL  write(0x2,0xefbfcb50,0x1e)
 27199 popauth  GIO   fd 2 wrote 30 bytes
       "Changing POP password for xyz.
       "
 27199 popauth  RET   write 30/0x1e
 27199 popauth  PSIG  SIGSEGV SIG_DFL
==

and gdb:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x4917 in _gdbm_hash ()
==

Any help would be appreciated, even if you'll advice another popper ;)
Thanks.

Don't forget to make .xsession into an executable or things won't get any
better
(chmod 755)

perl isn't a programming language, it's a religion :)

I'm sure if you send someone (me, maybe) a sample file, and your needs from
the data, they'll whip you up something.  If it's not incredibly private,
send a _short_ extract to the list, and that might work better (since it's
about to hit weekend and I probably wouldn't be able to reply.)

You'll probably need to learn how to use your printer in FreeBSD, too,
although using samba and printing via some Windows machine might be easier.

Check http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/printing.html for more details about
printing.

"Use the port, Luke" (who actually said that?)

Use cvsup (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/cvsup.html) to update your ports
collection, if you haven't already, and there is qpopper in
/usr/ports/mail/popper.

> Any help would be appreciated, even if you'll advice another popper ;)

This seems to be becoming a religious issue.  Whatever you eventually choose,
remember to check security lists about them frequently.

problems in receiving email from some sites in the past days...)


Hello,

My machine is a Toshiba Satellite 200CDT laptop (dual boot, I have a =
partition for WNT). I cannot make my 3Com Etherlink III 3C589C working =
(it is a combo with BNC and 10baseT).

Everything seems to be OK, but I cannot ping any machine on the =
network...
=20
I have set the "-link0 link1" option for 'ifconfig'  (BNC cable).
It seems to be good, since that way,  the green light of the transceiver =
blinks quickly when the system is up, which is not the case with the =
"link0 -link1" option (no light).

I don't think it is a matter or IRQ even if WNT uses IRQ 5 for the =
Etherlink III.
I have tried to set IRQ to 5 with BSD, but then, the device is no longer =
recognized.
=20
Could you help me ?
=20
You will find hereafter three kinds of informations :
- output of 'ifconfig -au'
    NB: we have a 32 addresses subnetwork.  Our netmask is really =
255.255.255.224
- content of /var/log/messages
- content of /etc/rc.conf
=20
Thanks in advance.

(I send this message again. You =
might have=20
already answered, but we had problems in receiving email from some sites =
in the=20
past days...)



 


Hello,


 


My =
machine is a=20
Toshiba Satellite 200CDT laptop (dual boot, I have a partition for WNT). =

I cannot make my 3Com =
Etherlink III=20
3C589C working (it is a combo with =
BNC and=20
10baseT).


 


Everything seems to be OK, but I =
cannot ping any=20
machine on the network...


 


I have set the "-link0 =
link1" option=20
for 'ifconfig'  (BNC cable).


It seems to be =
good, since=20
that way,  the green light of =
the=20
transceiver blinks quickly when the system is up, which is not the case =
with the=20
"link0 -link1" option (no light).


 


I don't think it is a matter or IRQ =
even if WNT=20
uses IRQ 5 for the Etherlink III.


I have tried =
to set IRQ to 5=20
with BSD, but then, the device is no longer recognized.


 


Could you help me ?


 


You will find hereafter three kinds of informations=20
:


- output of 'ifconfig -au'


    NB: we have a 32 addresses=20
subnetwork.  Our netmask is really 255.255.255.224


- content of /var/log/messages


- content of /etc/rc.conf


 


Thanks in advance.


 


please reply to

Can someone help with this problem.
Cannot get FreeBSD to recognize CDROM(CDU31A) attached via SCSI

The easiest way to do it is, as root, run "elm -f /var/mail/username" to
look at the other persons' mail, and then forward any mail you want to
another adddress...

If the people are away for a week or so, create a .forward file in the
persons' home directory with something like:

\username, person.to.forward.to

This keeps any new mail received in the persons' folder, but also sends it
to someone else.

Raymond Hunter...

Is there any way to forward mails in mail queue(/var/mail).

I want to forward mails that are already received, but

our users are not in our office, so I need to forward them.

Hello,
I want to connect 2 servers( runningFreeBSD 2.2.5)  with leased line.
But i didn't find any information, about how to do it :(
Where i can get example script for leased line connection?
Each server has a LAN, it's a different LANs with different IP adreses.
1 computer is connected to Internet via ethernet and will be a router for
2 computer. So users from LAN2 will access Internet through 1 computer.
The problem that i can't make correct PPPD configuration on this
servers:(( 

Thank you.

Waiting for reply 
Alexander

Hi there,

    I just installed xcdplayer. I have a CD-ROM drive located at
/dev/wcd0c
    What is the trick to getting xcdplayer to play music CD's?

    I have tried using the -device parameter, but for whatever reason,
xcdplayer generates errors either:
"ioctl(cdromplaymsftrk): Input/output error" or
"/dev/wcd0c: Permission denied" if I don't run xcdplayer as root

    What is the trick to getting xcdplayer to work?
    What I really want is to be able to enjoy music cd's and if there is
a easier to use progam than xcdplayer, I'm all for it

    Thanks in advance,
    Dave

the smart thing to do is automatically mount the DOS partition when booting.
then you can access the drive as if it is another Unix partition. in
/etc/fstab, add (this assumes that you are using a IDE drive and DOS is the
first partition):

/dev/wd0s1	/dos		msdos	rw 0 0

or you can manually mount the partition as root:

# mount -t msdos /dev/wd0s1 /dos

>  if i add secondary harddisk, which command i can mount this harddisk
>  or the system will be automatically mounted when boot up?

to mount your second FreeBSD drive, in /etc/fstab add (this assumes you
are using an IDE drive and that FreeBSD is the first partition on that
drive and new partition uses the "e" partition, there is some merit to
making a bootable "a" partition, and swap "b" partition on the second drive
in case the first drive dies, you can limp along with the second drive):

/dev/wd0s1e	/mountPoint	ufs	rw 1 1

--mark.

Yes but if everyone writes to oracle and says "hey where is the FreeBSD port"
in sufficiate numbers, that would also cause them to take notice.

 If everone on this list did it, That is a heck of a start...

I recently removed a user via vipw and then added them back later.

Now they can't use any commands that relly on shared libraries.

They also can't do a "who", it sais something like utmp premission
denied
or something like that.

I'm having a bad day, can anyone help ????

Thanks & regards, Brendan...

I think what you want to do is connect 2 networks together via. a leased
line. You don't need FreeBSD to do this. You need a router with a serial
port. I have never managed to find any sort of expansion card for a PC that
has 15 pin NTU connector.
Leased lines don't have connection scripts, on the basis that they are
always connected.
You don't want to use PPP either. You will have to add routing entries to
your routers to get things working.

I think your best option is to buy a book on IP networking.
Sorry I can't help with your problem, but I think one of us is really
confused.

Is it possible to have multiple accounts that act and feel that same 
way as an anonymous ftp account?

Basically I want to setup up an account(s) that only has ftp 
access.  I tried creating one based on the ftp user, but was unable 
to get it to react the same way.

I am running FreeBSD version 2.1.5.

Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

Sounds to me like your systems just don't know where each 
other are. If you need more info let me know.

Dear FBSD'ers,
	I have loaded FBSD 2.2.5 on my machine (I only have the CD's - no
manual)  - I want to upgrade XFree86 to vs. 3.3.2 (to support my card).

My question is this - If I download the Xfree86.tar (for XFree86-3.3.2) and
use pkg_add, then delete the X-servers I don't need; will this suffice?? or
am I missing some critical steps here.
If this is not the best way to achieve this, then what steps should I
follow??

(I have 18mths Linux/SunOS experience, so I don't mind tinkering - but my
internet connection is slow, and has a tendency to stall my ftp connections
- so a full ftp/ports process is not my best option)

Hi all,

I have multiple users/httpd processes on one box with a directory structure:

/usr/www/usernam1/httpd/htdocs		(DocumentRoot)
/usr/www/usernam2/httpd/htdocs		(DocumentRoot)

The accounts (usernam1, usernam2) can FTP and telnet into the system. They can
also romp around anywhere else they please and look at stuff.

Is there a way to limit these FTP users to only be allowed into their own 
directory space?

Is there also a way to limit the telnet access (this is less important as some
are not allowed telnet access).

i'm really tired of constantly trying to push freebsd at the office
while everyone else here keeps talking about redhat.

Yes but if everyone writes to oracle and says "hey where is the FreeBSD
port"
in sufficiate numbers, that would also cause them to take notice.

 If everone on this list did it, That is a heck of a start...

I'd hate for someone to feel forced to such an extreme measure... so if
there's interest, I could try to package up some stuff I cobbled up to
print labels, and put it somewhere that might be useful for folks to get
to & use.

It's an arguably unholy mixture of groff macros & Perl, along with a
defined structure for configuration files to tell the above the
characteristics of particular label stock.  The script is designed to
accept input that looks like:

label 1 line 1...
label 1 line 2...
...
label 1 line n

label 2 line 1...
label 2 line 2...
...
label 2 line n

...

label N line 1...
label N line 2...
...
label N line n


Oh, yeah -- the output is PostScript, and it's also written expecting to
go to rectangular (vs. triangular, circular, or whatever) label stock.

It isn't generalized as much as it really should be, but I haven't had
much incentive to tinker with it much, since it works well enough for my
purposes (including a rather degenerate case of using an entire sheet of
8.5"x11" paper as a single "label" that I refer to as "letterhead" --
oh, yeah -- envelopes are handled as "labels," too).


Now... as for the data re-formatting....  The Perl script's input is
fairly easily machine-generated (for example, if the first line is
empty, it's ignored, so you can safely *always* prefix a new label with
an empty line).

I'd probably be willing ot cobble up a simple Perl script or something
to eat the list of addresses that you get & output the form that the
script eats... or maybe even twist the script that I have to recognize
the format you use, if it seems sufficiently general.

If that seems useful, please let me know at my home address (to which
I'll Cc: this message), since all that is stuff I didn't do here, and
isn't here.  (For that matter, it isn't FreeBSD-specific, since it was
developed originally on a BSD/386 system, and at home I run it on the
Suns.)

If I do make it available, I'm hoping (of course) that others will help
improve it....  :-}

I had a need to do this once, so I wrote a Perl script to do it, which
is at home.  I'll Cc: my home address to make it easier for you to send
me a message there to request a copy, if that's what you'd like.

Dear sir(s),

I am a BSDi and FreeBSD users. As you may know, BSDI does not have a ports
collection. A group of BSDI users including myself have decided to build a
ports collection for BSDI that is based entirely (hey, copying is the most
sincere form of flattery right) upon the FreeBSD ports collection. The
idea is fabulous but...

Is there any major aversion of us doing this? I don't want to step on
anyone's toes.

Is there a better way of doing this? 

Matt

Okay, sorry for bothering you again, but I need some help.  All the
directions for everything on the ports collection assume that the
person has internet access with FreeBSD.  This is not the case with me.
 I have FreeBSD on my laptop, which is not connected to the internet,
 so I need to know how to do everything holding in mind that I am
 connected to the internet with WinNT and use a Zip drive to transfer
 files over to my laptop.

Am I supposed to install the neomagic driver as I'm installing X, or
afterwards?  When I tried "make configure" in /usr/ports/x11/XFree86,
it gave me the error message that it couldn't find X332src-1.tgz.  Then
it tried to download it using ftp, which, of course, failed.  So I went
to one of the ftp sites (ftp.xfree86.org) and downloaded X332src-1.tgz,
along with everything else in the /source directory.  I then put these
files in /usr/ports/x11/XFree86 and tried "make configure again."  No
luck.  I got the same error message.  What's going on?

BTW, the reason I'm posting these questions here and not asking the
XFree86 project is because I'm trying to do this with the ports
collection, which is _not_ the way the XFree86 docs tell you to do it...

	I am having difficulty configuring my Gravis Ultrasound PNP
properly. My GUS has the following settings:

IRQ: 11

synth:
DMA 1: 5
I/O Base 1: 0x220
DMA 2: 7
I/O Base 2: 0x320

codec:
I/O Base: 0x32c

(Soundblaster/Adlib, MPU401 info omitted).

I rebuilt my kernel with the following options added:

controller pnp0
controller snd0
device gus0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 11 drq 5 flags 0x7 vector gusintr
(The GUS gives no info about which DMA is read, which is write, so I took
a guess)

At reboot, I received the message "gus0 not found at 0x220."
I tried using UserConfig to change the port setting to 0x320, then 0x32c,
but neither worked. If you could give me a solution or some guidance, your
help would be much appreciated.

A way to do this is to use wu-ftpd, and set up the "home directory" part
of the passwd entry to have a trailing "/." in it.

It's possible that other ftpd implementations do this (or accomplish a
similar objective in a different way), as well.

Hi,

We need more information.

Look in 2 files and tell us what's there.  The two files are
~/.xsession-errors and /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/xdm-errors.

Does anybody know if BSD has any support for FORE OC3/OC12 or Efficient
OC3/OC12 pci adapters?  There's support for the Efficient OC3 adapter in
Linux but I'd rather stick with BSD if at all possible.

While I'm here....how about any MARS server support?

Thanks,
Fran

Hi

What are the possibilities to let NT use the UNIX password database or
vise versa? In fact I want just 1 password database instead of 2...

Hello,

I'm trying to install FreeBSD 2.2.7 and when it starts
probing the devices, it hangs up and switching to VT2,
it dies at wd3 complaining about wdcontrol recal failed
reading.

The machine is a gateway p5-166 with a 2G IDE hard disk
and a toshiba IDE cdrom.

How do I disable the probe so installation won't die
when it probes the IDE CDROM?

Thanks in advance,

Robert

One of the disks on my FreeBSD 2.2.2 system has crashed.  It was the
/hold
disk for backups.  The system will boot but it wont mount all the
filesystems
until it can mount this one.  So it seems.  I replaced the disk but
cannot get
to the /stand/sysinstall utility to format it and add it as a disk.  Any

help is appreciated.

What you might want to do is update your ports-www using cvsup
(http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/cvsup.html).

Then try install again.

On other matters, do you have a firewall of some type?  This may break
things.

Try the GUI xmcd and it's curses counterpart cda.

Xmcd has an added cool feature that automatically fetches a CD description
and play list via HTTP. Very cool.

Didn't I just help you do the network install? Your network card should
already be working.

At any rate, you should configure your network card during boot. You have
to edit any/all of the following files to get simple networking working.

/etc/rc.conf
/etc/hosts
/etc/resolv.conf
/etc/host.conf

Read the necessary man pages as well. To learn how to read man pages type
'man man' at the prompt.

Did you add them back using adduser or vipw? Try adding an arbitrary user
using adduser and see if that user works. If it does, then you probably
messed up the syntax of /etc/passwd when using vipw. Did you mess with the
users group membership?

At work we let a single unix server handle all of the passwords using yp.
This will get you just one database for any number of machines.

That said, I have never implemented yp. See 'man yp'.

Hello,

You know, I think that's one of the best pieces
of advice I've gotten yet.  No matter what O/S
format I go with, I shall definitely get myself
a nice little sound card with a separate modem
(a Xoom or  a U.S. Robotics, maybe?)

Much thanks,

Georgiana

You and me both.  SAMBA can pass off user authentication for SMB
shares to a NT server, but that doesn't help anywhere else.
Something LDAP-ish would probably be nice, but I know nothing about
implementing a solution like that right now.

Samba can also change the password on an NT server when a user
requests it, or vice-versa (something like that... there is a
'password sync' type option), but that requires that accounts already
exist on the Unix box.  I imagine you are looking for something that
would include creating/deleting/syncronizing accounts on all NT/UNIX
boxes. 

If you find anything, I would be interested also.

To whom it may concern,
	Hello. My name is Chris Thain and just recently I installed the
2.2.6-Release of FreeBSD. I have to tell you that I am extreamly happy with
my new operating system. I really like all the features that FreeBSD has
(well all the ones that I have played with so far :) It is a very powerful
and useful operating system. 
	I have a couple of questions regarding accessing files via. my CDROM drive
and my 3 1/2" floppy drive. I have looked through most of the topics on in
the Handbook at www.freebsd.org and but I was unsucessful in finding how to
access the devices. If you could email me back a breif description on how
to access files on these drives or send me information on where I can find
help for this I would greatly appreciate it. 
	I have also had trouble with setting up a User PPP connection. I have read
all through the Handbook and I think that I have all the configurations for
the connection set up correctly but each time I use the "dial" command in
PPP ti says: "Error: OpenModem failed: /dev/cuaa1: Device not configued" 
Again if you could send me information on how to configure my modem or send
me information on where I can get help for this porgram I would greatly
appreciate it.
	Thank-you very much for your Spectacular operating system and for your time!

	Chris Thain.

HELP!

Here's the deal. I've recently gotten Xwindows operational and I wanted
to make it start automatically on bootup.

Following the instructions in The Complete FreeBSD, I did the following:

"To enable xdm,

1. Add the following line (in bold face) to /etc/rc.local:

  # put your local stuff here
  echo " xdm"; /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm

  echo '.'


2. Add a line to the xdm configuration file
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xservers:

  :0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X :0 vt03   you can add more options here"

Now when I boot up, I get a login window, into which I enter my login
name and passwd. The problem is that I've inadvertently created some
kind of loop:  Everytime I enter my login name and passwd, I am returned
to the same login window. How do I fix this?

Thanks,
John Derk

there is a ATM mailing list where you could get more info,
but I know there are drivers for SOME FORE cards.
I cannot however tell you which ones..

possibly search the mailing list archives at www.freebsd.org

As in netware/mars?

I believe so though I've never used it.

Hi,

Well, I'm confused.... first you said you're using xdm, then you say that
you are using startx.  Oops - no you don't - you said you were using
.xinitrc.  Well, that will fail as xdm looks for ~/.xsession.  

Try the following:

cat > ~/.xsession
exec your_window_manager_path_here
^D
chmod +x ~/.xsession

Then try logging in again.

If that fails please look at .xsession-errors and see what it lists.

Hi,

I just got a new machine. I want to put a FreeBSD, a Linux, and 2 FAT
partitions on it.

What is the best *order* to do this in? I don't really care whether I
use LILO or Bootmgr. 

Is it better to partition the disk thru dos so that it doesn't bitch,
and then throw the UNIXs on after, or the other way around?

Thanks,
Roman

the magic you've got going on with the /usr/ports set up just kicks ass. It's
amazing.  I'm not sure if there could be a mechanism to check for latest
versions of stuff, that'd be the only improvement I could think to make.
 Thanks for a great OS!

Hi,

I want all mail sent from my localhost to be handled by another mail
host, where users may or may not have a .forward file directing the
mail back to the original host.  In that case I want the mail to be
delivered locally.

I've got this working but only if outgoing addresses are qualified
with a domain name, i.e., 'user@somewhere.com' works, but just 'user'
is delivered locally without sending to the mail host.

Here's my m4 config file:

divert(0)dnl
VERSIONID(`@(#)bsd.mc	$Revision: 1 $')
OSTYPE(bsd4.4)dnl
DOMAIN(generic)dnl
FEATURE(mailertable, `hash -o /etc/mailertable')dnl
MASQUERADE_AS(somewhere.com)dnl
FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)dnl
define(`SMART_HOST', mailhost.somewhere.com)dnl
define(`LOCAL_RELAY', mailhost.somewhere.com)dnl
define(`MAIL_HUB',mylocalhost.somwhere.com)dnl
define(`LUSER_RELAY', mailhost.somewhere.com)dnl
define(`confCW_FILE', `-o /etc/sendmail.cw')dnl
LOCAL_USER(root)dnl
MAILER(local)dnl
MAILER(smtp)dnl

My understanding is that defining LOCAL_RELAY is supposed to handle
the case of unqualified addresses, but it is not working for me here.
While experimenting, I've found that the order of the defines in the
config file is important, but I still can't seem to make it work even
by re-ordering.  Any ideas?

sendmail version:	8.9.1
FreeBSD version:	3.0-980825-SNAP

Thanks for any help.

-Brian

Subject: Ftpd problems when using tcpwrappers.

Please reply to jnkam@home.com

Hello,

I'm have setup tcpwrappers on this machine, and it is working correctly for
all inetd daemons except for the ftpd.  When a user attempts to login to the
ftp they aren't asked to supply a name or password, and when you try to use
any ftp commands, such as ls, it tells you "Not connected."  If you try to
login using 'user', it tells you "Not connected."  The following documents
this sequence, with the name of the server removed for security purposes:

% ftp 
Connected to .
This ftp request has been logged.
ftp> ls
Not connected.
ftp> user
Not connected.
ftp>

If I try to open  at the ftp> prompt I get the same sequence of
events, and never am able to login.  If I setup the ftp to be non-wrapped
this problem does not occur.  However, a non-wrapped server does not provide
the information I want to know, such was when a user logs in and where from.
A non-wrapped version also prevents me from denying hosts.

The following is how the ftpd appears in my inetd.conf:

#ftp    stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/libexec/ftpd       ftpd -l
ftp     stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/local/libexec/tcpd ftpd -l

The top line is the non-wrapped which works correctly.  The second line is
the wrapped which causes the sequence listed above.

The wrappers DO work with all other daemons, just not with the ftpd.  I have
also tried another ftpd from the ports with the same results.  If you can
help me please e-mail me at jnkam@home.com instead of posting to the list.

Thanks in advance,

Jeremy Kam

Are you sitting at the machine you're trying to start X on?

What does your /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xservers have in it?

Yes, I'm sitting at the machine.
Following is in Xservers

:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X

Also tried

 :0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X :0 vty3

(Saw this setting from somebody else who is currently experiencing the same
problem)

After now two weeks I switched on my FreeBSD-maschine again ... ..
And after login as root I tried to startx but it failed .
First : command not found (?) - I think I have to add the path ... .
Then I changed manualy to /usr/X11.../bin and tried again : command not
found .
So I typed in the whole path for startx and got the message xinit not
found .
Again I typed the whole path but now for xinit and pressed enter .
Now a winow for Xwindow opened but only for a short moment .
The process breaked : server shutdown .
The last line told me : unexpected ) ... .
But in wich file could that be - so that Id edit it ?

Any ideas for the whole problem ?
Id enjoy because I have to go on ... .

Thank you

Subject: Supported SCSI cards
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk

I would like to know if anyone has successfully used either an Emerald
Systems ISA SCSI controller, NCR 53C94 chip, or a Tekram PCI SCSI,
DC390.  On the latter, the box states it is supported by FreeBSD &
Linux, but I see no reference to Unix, other than SCO Unix, in the
manual.  I have the Emerald card, but I need drivers for it.  But, why
bother if it's not able to work with FBSD.

Here is system/software info:
FreeBSD 2.2.6, dual boot, with Win 95
Pentium P200MMX
64MB RAM
S3Trio 32/64 video card

My SCSI devices are an HP 4P Scanjet, and an NEC external 3x CDROM.

Thanks very much in advance for all the help.

I would like to know if that command understand FAT 32 (I have freebsd
2.2.7 with msdosfs support in the kernel). Also I would like to know if
there is chance to screw (broke) my dos partition. Any man page or doc
about the FAT32?

Be forewarned: Newbie response!

you need to man ifconfig - also try to login as root and load
/stand/sysinstall -i think
and scroll down to where it says post install configuration then go to
network installation

also I've found the /var/log/messages file - which tells you what
happens upon boot to be helpful when trying to figure out what
parameters your system thinks your nic should be running with.

Hi there. I am running -current with the 7/16/98 CAM patches on a
dual-processor P5 166MMX system. I installed the latest user ppp from
awfulhak because I was getting the following problem when connecting
to an NT RAS server using the MS Chap protocol:

Aug 28 14:39:07 trane ppp[5959]: tun0: Phase: deflink: HDLC errors ->
FCS: 0, ADDR: 0, COMD: 0, PROTO: 1

PPP would then crash with a SIGBUS. Using the new stuff didnt help,
but I did get the following stack trace:

(gdb) where
#0  0x200c2d88 in bcmp ()
#1  0xefbfe002 in ?? ()
#2  0x200708dd in AliasHandleResource ()

#13 0x206a5 in DoLoop ()
#14 0x20281 in main ()

The bad news is that turning on HDLC debugging seems to have made the
problem go away at the expense of slower transactions. Any clue as to
how to effectively debug/solve the problem would be greatly
appreciated.

Installing FreeBSD was a no brainer....

I can not install and run a port (package), I am trying to install Apache,
and used the FreeBSD graphic installer.... and downloaded some stuff, where
it went I have know idea...
I tried following the instructions in the FAQ and online manual......

I can't find the skelton to run makefile install......

Ok I am a 18 Year ECNE and a 6 Year MCSE.... and haven't touched unix for
over 20 years.....

Please if you could point me at some information that would help me setup a
BSD box running apache........

Let's take these 2 separately.

CD-ROM - what do you want to use this for?  If you want to play music and
that's all then you shouldn't have to do anything other than use an
appropriate piece of software to play it for you.  I use and like xmcd.
Is this an ATAPI/IDE or SCSI CD?  In any case, let's pretend it's a ATAPI.
If you've configured the CD-ROM to be found in your kernel you can have a
look at /etc/fstab.  You should have an entry like:

/dev/wcd0c              /cdrom          cd9660  ro,noauto       0       0

(a scsi drive has /dev/cd0c I think)

If you want to mount this and read data off a CD you should do something
like:

	mount /cdrom

For more detailed info see:

	http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ84.html

For floppies, I prefer to use mtools rather than mounting the floppy
device.  Mtools is in the ports (/usr/ports/emulators/mtools if you
installed the ports tree).  It allows you to do all the normal DOS
commands on a floppy without having to mount it.  You can grab the package
at ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/packages-2.2.6/emulators if you don't
like ports.  They should be on the FreeBSD CD too if you installed from
CD-ROM.

> I have also had trouble with setting up a User PPP connection.
> "Error: OpenModem failed: /dev/cuaa1: Device not configued"

Do you have the following in your kernel?

	pseudo-device tun 1

If not you'll need to do that.  You'll also need to check that you have a
/dev/cuaa1.  If not you can make one by:

	cd /dev
	./MAKEDEV cuaa1

Hope this helps (I don't use PPP - T1 at work, soon a T1 at home).

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.

II:   How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions
III:  Should I ask -questions or -hackers?
IV:   How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions
V:    How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions

I: Introduction
===============

This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from
FreeBSD-questions (the "newcomers"), and also those who answer the
questions (the "hackers").

       Note that the term "hacker" has nothing to do with break- ing
       into other people's computers.  The correct term for the latter
       activity is "cracker", but the popular press hasn't found out
       yet.  The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking
       security, and have nothing to do with it.

In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the
different viewpoints of the two groups.  The newcomers accused the
hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers
accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English,
and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter.  Of
course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the
most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration.

In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration
and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions.  In the
following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that,
we'll look at how to answer one.

II:  How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions
==============================================

When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message
from Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG.  In this message, amongst other things, it
told you how to unsubscribe.  Here's a typical message:

  Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list!
  
  If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list,
  you can send mail to "Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG" with the following command
  in the body of your email message:
  
      unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey 
  
  Here's the general information for the list you've
  subscribed to, in case you don't already have it:
  
  FREEBSD-QUESTIONS               User questions
  This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD.  You should not
  send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the
  question to be pretty technical.

Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you
don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one
which you specified when you subscribed.

If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on
the list, this may mean one of two things:

  1.  You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where
      keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For
      example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as
      grog@lemis.de. Since then, I have changed it to
      grog@lemis.com. If I were to try to remove grog@lemis.com from
      the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with
      which I joined.

  2.  You're subscribed to a mailing list which is subscribed to
      FreeBSD-questions. If that's the case, you'll have to figure out
      which one it is and get your name taken off that one. If you're
      not sure which one it might be, check the headers of the
      messages you receive from freebsd-questions: maybe there's a
      clue there.

If you've done all this, and you still can't figure out what's going
on, send a message to Postmaster@FreeBSD.org, and he will sort things
out for you. Don't send a message to FreeBSD-questions: they can't
help you.

III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers?
=========================================

Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD,
FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers. In some cases, it's not really
clear which group you should ask. The following criteria should help
for 99% of all questions, however:

     If the question is of a general nature, ask
     FreeBSD-questions. Examples might be questions about intstalling
     FreeBSD or the use of a particular UNIX utility.

     If you think the question relates to a bug, but you're not sure,
     or you don't know how to look for it, send the message to
     FreeBSD-questions.

     If the question relates to a bug, and you're sure that it's a bug
     (for example, you can pinpoint the place in the code where it
     happens, and you maybe have a fix), then send the message to
     FreeBSD-hackers.

     If the question relates to enhancements to FreeBSD, and you can
     make suggestions about how to implement them, then send the
     message to FreeBSD-hackers.

There are also a number of other specialized mailing lists, for
example FreeBSD-isp, which caters to the interests of ISPs (Internet
Service Providers) who run FreeBSD. If you happen to be an ISP, this
doesn't mean you should automatically send your questions to
FreeBSD-isp. The criteria above still apply, and it's in your interest
to stick to them, since you're more likely to get good results that
way.

IV:  How to submit a question
=============================

When submitting a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider the
following points:

  1.  Remember that nobody gets paid for answering a FreeBSD
      question. They do it of their own free will.  You can influence
      this free will positively by submitting a well-formulated
      question supplying as much relevant information as possible. You
      can influence this free will negatively by submitting an
      incomplete, illegible, or rude question. It's perfectly possible
      to send a message to FreeBSD-questions and not get an answer
      even if you follow these rules. It's much more possible to not
      get an answer if you don't. In the rest of this document, we'll
      look at how to get the most out of your question to
      FreeBSD-questions.

  2.  Not everybody who answers FreeBSD questions reads every message:
      they look at the subject line and decide whether it interests
      them. Clearly, it's in your interest to specify a
      subject. ``FreeBSD problem'' or ``Help'' aren't enough. If you
      provide no subject at all, many people won't bother reading
      it. If your subject isn't specific enough, the people who can
      answer it may not read it.

  3.  Format your message so that it is legible, and PLEASE DON'T
      SHOUT!!!!!. We appreciate that a lot of people don't speak
      English as their first language, and we try to make allowances
      for that, but it's really painful to try to read a message
      written full of typos or without any line breaks. A lot of badly
      formatted messages come from bad mailers or badly configured
      mailers. The following mailers are known to send out badly
      formatted messages without you finding out about them:

      Eudora 
      exmh 
      Microsoft Exchange 
      Microsoft Internet Mail 
      Microsoft Outlook 
      Netscape 

      As you can see, the mailers in the Microsoft world are frequent
      offenders. If at all possible, use a UNIX mailer. If you must
      use a mailer under Microsoft environments, make sure it is set
      up correctly. Try not to use MIME: a lot of people use mailers
      which don't get on very well with MIME.

      For further information on this subject, check
      http://www.lemis.com/email.html.

  4.  Make sure your time and time zone are set correctly. This may
      seem a little silly, since your message still gets there, but
      many of the people you are trying to reach get several hundred
      messages a day. They frequently sort the incoming messages by
      subject and by date, and if your message doesn't come before the
      first answer, they may assume they missed it and not bother to
      look.

  5.  Don't include unrelated questions in the same message. Firstly,
      a long message tends to scare people off, and secondly, it's
      more difficult to get all the people who can answer all the
      questions to read the message.

  6.  Specify as much information as possible. This is a difficult
      area, and we need to expand on what information you need to
      submit, but here's a start:

         If you get error messages, don't say ``I get error
         messages'', say (for example) ``I get the error message 'No
         route to host'''.

         If your system panics, don't say ``My system panicked'', say
         (for example) ``my system panicked with the message 'free
         vnode isn't'''.

         If you have difficulty installing FreeBSD, please tell us
         what hardware you have. In particular, it's important to know
         the IRQs and I/O addresses of the boards installed in your
         machine.

         If you have difficulty getting PPP to run, describe the
         configuration. Which version of PPP do you use? What kind of
         authentication do you have? Do you have a static or dynamic
         IP address? What kind of messages do you get in the log file?

  7.  If you do all this, and you still don't get an answer, there
     could be other reasons. For example, the problem is so
     complicated that nobody knows the answer, or the person who does
     know the answer was offline. If you don't get an answer after,
     say, a week, it might help to re-send the message. If you don't
     get an answer to your second message, though, you're probably not
     going to get one from this forum.  Resending the same message
     again and again will only make you unpopular.

To summarize, let's assume you know the answer to the following
question (yes, it's the same one in each case :-). You choose which of
these two questions you would be more prepared to answer:


Message 1:
Subject: (none)

I just can't get hits damn silly FereBSD system to workd, and Im really good at this tsuff, but I have never seen anythign sho difficult to install, it jst wont work whatever I try so why don't y9ou guys tell me what I doing wrong.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Message 2:
Subject: Problems installing FreeBSD

I've just got the FreeBSD 2.1.5 CD-ROM from Walnut Creek, and I'm
having a lot of difficulty installing it.  I have a 66 MHz 486 with 16
MB of memory and an Adaptec 1540A SCSI board, a 1.2GB Quantum Fireball
disk and a Toshiba 3501XA CD-ROM drive.  The installation works just
fine, but when I try to reboot the system, I get the message "Missing
Operating System".

----------------------------------------------------------------------


V: How to answer a question
===========================

Before you answer a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider:

1.  A lot of the points on submitting questions also apply to
    answering questions.  Read them.

2.  Has somebody already answered the question?  The easiest way to
    check this is to sort your incoming mail by subject: then
    (hopefully) you'll see the question followed by any answers, all
    together.

    If somebody has already answered it, it doesn't automatically mean
    that you shouldn't send another answer.  But it makes sense to
    read all the other answers first.

3.  Do you have something to contribute beyond what has already been
    said?  In general, "Yeah, me too" answers don't help much,
    although there are exceptions, like when somebody is describing a
    problem he's having, and he doesn't know whether it's his fault or
    whether there's something wrong with the hardware or software.  If
    you do send a "me too" answer, you should also include any further
    relevant information.

4.  Are you sure your answer is correct?  If not, wait a day or so.
    If nobody else comes up with a better answer, you can still reply
    and say, for example, "I don't know if this is correct, but since
    nobody else has replied, why don't you try replacing your ATAPI
    CD-ROM with a frog?".

5.  Don't do a group reply; lots of people send messages with hundreds
    of CCs.  Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, just reply
    to the person and copy FreeBSD-questions.

6.  Trim the original message to the minimum, and use some technique
    to identify which text came from the original message, and which
    text you add.  I personally find that prepending "> " to the
    original message works best.  Leaving white space after the ">"
    and leave empty lines between your text and the original text both
    make the result more readable.

    Most mailers change the subject line on a reply by prepending a
    text such as "Re: ".  If your mailer doesn't do it automatically,
    you should do it manually.

    If the submitter didn't abide by format conventions (lines too
    long, inappropriate subject line), *please* fix it.  In the case
    of an incorrect subject line (such as "HELP!!??"), change the
    subject line to (say) "Re: Difficulties with sync PPP (was:
    HELP!!??)".  That way other people trying to follow the thread
    will have less difficulty following it.

    In such cases, it's appropriate to say what you did and why you
    did it, but try not to be rude.  If you find you can't answer
    without being rude, don't answer.

    If you just want to reply to a message because of its bad format,
    just reply to the submitter, not to the list.  You can just send
    him this message in reply, if you like.

The 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:

         # scsiformat sd1

         The data for partition 3 is:
         

         Looking at the output from dmesg, we see:

         (aha0:1:0): "MICROP 2112-15MQ1094802 HQ48" type 0 fixed SCSI 2
         sd1(aha0:1:0): Direct-Access 1001MB (2051615 512 byte sectors)
         sd1(aha0:1:0): with 1760 cyls, 15 heads, and an average 77 sectors/track

         In this case, then, you should use the parameters 1760
         cylinders, 15 heads, and 77 sectors per track.  What's less
         obvious here is the number of cylinders: fdisk doesn't have
         an opinion, and scsiformat and dmesg decided it has 2,051,615
         sectors.  Unfortunately, if you calculate the number
         according to the formula cylinders x heads x sectors, you'll
         come up with a different result: in this case 1760 x 15 x 77
         = 2,032,800.  How come?  The disks report the total number of
         sectors, including spare tracks and such, but you can't use
         them all.  The 2,032,800 is the correct number, and if you
         try to specify 2,051,615 to disklabel, it will spit out lots
         of messages about partitions which go beyond the end of the
         disk.

    Page 173, middle of page.  Change the text after the "no magic"
    message to:

         The message no magic doesn't mean that fdisk is out of purple
	 smoke.  It refers to the fact that it didn't find the
	 so-called magic number, which identifies the partition table.
	 Since we don't have a partition table yet, this message isn't
	 surprising. It's also completely harmless.

    Page 173, last example.  Remove the first 22 lines, from

	 ******* Working on device /dev/rsd1 *******

    to, but not including the next occurrence of this line.

    Page 177, bulleted list: add the bullet

	 * The total number of sectors in the partition.  Calculate
	   the number from the the formula cylinders x heads x
	   sectors, even if you are using the whole disk: the output
	   from dmesg or scsiformat is not correct here.

    Page 178, middle of page: after

	 # disklabel -w -r /dev/sd1c cdc94161

    insert

         When you do this, expect a kernel message (in high-intensity
	 display) saying ``Cannot find disk label''.  Since there
	 isn't any label, it can't be found.  This is another harmless
	 chicken and egg problem.

    Page 182:  In the section "Creating the file systems", add the
    first line to the example:

	 # newfs /dev/rsd1h

    Further down the page, the last example should also read

	 # newfs /dev/rsd1h

3.  Other changes

    Page 41, after the heading "Installing from an MS-DOS partition".
    Add the text:

         It's also possible to install from a primary MS-DOS partition
         on the first disk.  At the moment, it's not possible to
         install from extended partitions.

    Page 136, bottom:  Add the text

	 If you are changing the root password, be careful: it's easy
	 enough to lock yourself out of the system if you mess things
	 up, which could happen if, for example, you mistyped the
	 password twice in the same way (don't laugh, it happens).  If
	 you're running X, open another window and use su to become
	 root.  If you're running in character mode, select another
	 virtual terminal and log in as root there.  Only when you're
	 sure you can still access root should you log out.

    Page 152, just before the heading "The online manual".  Add:

	 Yes, you really need to run latex three times in order to
	 build the cross-references.

    Page 199, the end of the multipage table is garbled.  It should
    read:

         ze0	214      IBM/National Semiconductor PCMCIA ethernet controller
	 zp0	214	 3Com PCMCIA Etherlink III

    Page 205:  Change the section titled "lpt0" to:

	 lpt0 through lpt2 are the three printer ports you could
	 conceivably have.  Most people don't have three printers: you
	 can comment out the definitions of the printers which you
	 don't have.

    Page 208, bottom of page: swap the italicized headings "Adaptec
    274X controller" and "Adaptec 1274X controller"

Many thanks to Paul DuBois and Jerry Dunham for finding many of these
bugs.

          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

bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at

o In  a  number  of  places, I suggest the use of the following command to find
  process information:

  $ ps aux | grep foo

  Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the  terminal  emulator
  upon  which  it  is working.  This command usually works fine on a relatively
  wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it  may  truncate
  exactly  the  information  you're  looking for, so you end up with no output.
  You can fix that with the w option:

  $ ps waux | grep foo

  Thanks to Sue Blake  for this information


Location of the sample files
____________________________

On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not  match  the
specifications  in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM).  The 2.2.5 CD-ROM came
out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM
as  a  single  gzipped  tar file /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz.  It contains the
following files:

drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh           0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/

To extract one of these files, say cfbsd/docs/packages.txt,  and  assuming  you
have the CD-ROM mounted as /cdrom, enter:

# cd /usr/share/doc
# tar xvzf /cdrom/xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz cfbsd/docs/packages.txt

See page 209 for more information on using tar.

These files are an early version of what is described in the book.  I'll put up
some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future.

Thanks to Frank McCormick  for drawing this to my  attention.

Chapter 8: Setting up X11
_________________________

For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical
to  distribute  errata.   You  can  download  the   PostScript   version   from
ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps,    or    the    ASCII   version   from
ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt.  No HTML version is available.

Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add:

In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents
(sh,  bash,  pdksh, ksh or zsh).  With the exception of sh, they are all in the
Ports Collection.  I personally use the bash shell.

This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the  standard
shell.   The  standard  BSD  shell  is  the  C shell (csh), which has a fuller-
featured descendent tcsh.  In particular, the standard  installation  sets  the
root  user  up with a csh.  See page 152 (in this errata) for details of how to
change the shell.



                                                                         Page 3

Page 11: Reading the handbook
_____________________________

The CD-ROM now includes Mosaic and Netscape.  Replace the last paragraph on the
page and the example on the following page with:

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

$ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/mosaic-2.7b5.tgz
or
$ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-3.04.tgz
or
$ pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.7.2.tgz

The  numbers  after the name (2.7b5, 3.04 and 2.7.2) may change after this book
has been printed.  Use ls to list the names if you can't find these  particular
versions.

Thanks  to Stuart Henderson  for drawing this
to my attention.

Page 12: Printing the handbook
______________________________

The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete.  Replace the section
starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text:

Alternatively,  you  can  print  out  the  handbook.   You  need  to  have  the
documentation  sources  (/usr/doc) installed on your system.  You can find them
on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name.  To install them, first
mount your CD-ROM (see page 175).  Then enter:

$ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook
$ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook            you may need to be root for this operation
$ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook

You have a choice of formats for the output:

o ascii  will  give  you  plain  7-bit  ASCII output, suitable for reading on a
  character-mode terminal.



Page 4






                    Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition


o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser.

o latex will give you LATEX format, suitable for further  processing  with  TEX
  and LATEX.

o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing.

o roff  will give you output in troff source.  You can process this output with
  nroff or troff, but it's currently not very  polished.   LATEX  output  is  a
  better choice if you want to process it further.

Once  you  have  decided  your  format,  use  make to create the document.  For
example, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter:

$ make FORMATS=ps

This creates a file handbook.ps which  you  can  then  print  to  a  PostScript
printer or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222).

Thanks to Bob Beer  for drawing this to my attention.

Page 45:  Preparing floppies for installation
_____________________________________________

Replace  the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page)
with:

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

Page 80 and 81
______________

In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164.  It should
be 165.  Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction  (sorry,  I  lost
your name).

Page 88: setting up for dumping
_______________________________

The  example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf.  This variable is no
longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev.

Page 92
_______

At the end of the section How to install a package add the text:

Alternatively, you  can  install  packages  from  the  /stand/sysinstall  Final
Configuration  Menu.  We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71.  When
you start sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu  by  selecting
Index, and then selecting Configure.


Page 93
_______

Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add:


Install ports when installing the system
________________________________________

The  file  ports/ports.tgz  on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all
the ports.  You can install it with the base system if you  select  the  Custom
distribution  and  include the ports collection.  If you didn't install them at
the time, use the following method to install them all  (about  40  MB).   Make
sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter:

Page 96
_______

Replace the example at the top of the page with:

Instead, do:

# cd /cd4/ports/distfiles
# mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles              make sure you have a distfiles directory
# for i in *; do
>   ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i
> done

If you're using csh or tcsh, enter:

# cd /cd4/ports/distfiles
# mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles              make sure you have a distfiles directory
# foreach i (*)
?   ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i
? end

Thanks  to  Christopher  Raven   and Francois Jacques  for drawing this to my attention.

These values are defaults, and many  are  either  incorrect  for  FreeBSD  (for
example the device name /dev/com1) or do not apply at all (for example Xqueue).
If you are configuring manually, select one Protocol and one Device entry  from

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

# passwd root            change the password for root
Enter new password:
Enter password again:
# ^D                enter ctrl-D to continue with startup

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.

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.

attention.

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

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.

pseudo-device bpfilter
______________________

The Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) allows  you  to  capture  packets  crossing  a
network  interface  to  disk or to examine them with the tcpdump program.  Note
that this capability represents a significant compromise of  network  security.
The  number  after  bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes that can use
the facility.  Not all network interfaces support bpf.

In order to use the Berkeley Packet Filter, you must  also  create  the  device
nodes  /dev/bpf0 to /dev/bpf3 (if you're using the default number 4).  Current-
ly, MAKEDEV doesn't help much--you need to create each device separately:

# cd /dev
# ./MAKEDEV bpf0
# ./MAKEDEV bpf1
# ./MAKEDEV bpf2
# ./MAKEDEV bpf3

  not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode.

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

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

  This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug
  in  -CURRENT:  you  check  out  the  modules  as they were before the bug was
  introduced.  You specify the date with the -D  option,  for  example  -D  "10
  December 1997".


Page 285, after the second example.
___________________________________

Add the text:

If  you  need  to check out an older version, for example if there are problems
with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter:

Problems executing Linux binaries
_________________________________

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.

attention.

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.

> I wonder if AGP graphic card are supported in FREEBSD?


	FreeBSD dosen't care what kinda video card you have. Now,
XWindows, specifically XFree86 does. I'm running and ATI AGP @Play on it
perfectly fine. Matrox supposedly work too.

	What do you WANT to happen to it? Depending on how you install
things, you can either have it in it's own partion, or probally ideally,
get rid of it totally...

DId you get any reples to this?

All I can think of is that FreeBSD and Irix are disagreeing
about the optimal block size. You might try forcing the r and
w blocksizes on the client to various values. (1024,2048,...).

Serving from PPro 200 to 486/33 8MB over 10Base2, I got consistent
write times of around 500000 bytes/second. (Both boxes running
FreeBSD 2.2.6-R).

Could there be an evil interaction of NFS block size and ethernet
packet size? (Like in Linux NFS?)

As a last resort you might try running tcpdump and seeing what's
going on. Does nfsstat tell you anything?

I'm currently a student a the University of the Pacific.  I' a CIS major and
taking a class in UNIX, the instructor has informed the students of this
adress to be able to download a free version of FreeBSD.  for some reason I
was unable to complete that task.  I liked to know if there is any guides you
can give me?

Read http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/cvsup.html for information on how to
update your ports collection.  I must agree, the ports collection was one of
the first main drawcards that FreeBSD had for me, coming from a Linux
environment, and I can't see myself ever going back to it as my main OS.

Fdisk in dos, install your FAT-based operating systems, then install the
Unix clone :P and the Unix.  I'd recommend using booteasy... you can always
use lilo on the Linux partition only.

Try put the FreeBSD partition first, I think.  I'm sure you can always
convert the Linux partition to a FreeBSD file system and mount it later when
you've fallen in love with it :)

Question.  Does /usr/X11R6/bin/X actually exist, and if so, does it point to
a valid X server?

Read 'man X' and 'man xdm'.

You probably have to create a .xsession file in your home directory. This
file must be executable.

No. But your password must be at least six characters.

Does anyone know if I can make some version of FrameMaker run on
FreeBSD? Keeping in mind that I'm a non-hacker.

Thanks.

>     I am someone looking to not only host business sites, but also get set up to become an internet access provider for my area and sell dial-up access accounts. Is FreeBSD capable of handling dial-up networking users and virtual domains(or DNS). If so, how does it compare with Microsoft IIS. Any info. you could give me would be appreciated.

Not only *can* FreeBSD do what you, it is possibly the *best* choice for
the job.  It will handle dialup users, web hosting, virtual web domains
and virtual e-mail domains - just about anything you want to do.

Comparing FreeBSD and Apache to IIS running on NT is like comparing 
a 60's VW Beetle to a Mercedes S-Class.  The MicroSloth Beetle - um,
excuse me, web server - is a huge collection of security holes hidden
in a mas of bad programming.  I work for a newspaper and ISP in Southern
California.  We run almost all of our services on Unix, except for a
single NT box for a vertical-market product we purchased.  I did some 
benchmark testing between NT Server 4.0/IIS and the FreeBSD box at my
desk. The FreeBSD box at my desk was able to sustaintwice the data 
throughput of the NT box.  Not impressive enough?  Consider this - the
NT machine was a Pentium Pro 233 with 128 MB RAM, while the FreeBSD
machine was a Pentium 120 with 32 MB RAM.  Cool, huh?

I will be travelling to Canada early in October to assist a new ISP
up there get his servers configured.  I anticipate having this ISP
fully configured and operating in about a tenth the time I'd need to
set him up with NT, and the end result will deliver *way* better 
performance than he could ever expect to see from any MicroSloth 
product!

If you have any specific questions, please feel free to e-mail me
directly.

   Dear all,

   I'm one of the newest kids in town. So, here I go with my first newbie
question: Is there a utility similar to loadlin.exe capable of loading a
FreeBSD kernel from a DOS environment? 

Best regards,

I tried upgrading a machine at work from 2.2.2R to 2.2.7R tonight, and ran
into a problem i've not encountered before with this upgrade.  The machine
is one of two servers we use for dialup.  Each server has two 16 port boca
board on a shared irq.  Under 2.2.2R this has ran fine for about a year,
with no problems at all aside from an occasionaly silo buffer overflow.

Tonight however, when I booted with the kernel configured to support
the boca's I got a strange error, like this :

sio1: configured irq 10 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0x10

I'm able to access the modems and dialout, although they respond very
sluggishly and don't always flush their buffers properly.  They are useless
for dialin, which is what we use them for.

I've tried changing irqs and flags but after 12 or 13 kernels, decided to try
here.  Does anyone have a clue about this error?

Thank you very much,
Licia

On two of my FreeBSD-boxes the makewhatis part fails, saying that
makewhatis not found. On this machine from where I write, everything
works OK. The scripts are identical on all three machines. /usr/bin is
in the $PATH of the script in all machines and makewhatis is in the
proper directory. What can possibly be wrong?

Hmmm, nobody has to answer. I'm ashamed. I found out what it was. On one
of the boxes I had renamed perl to perl.old, but hadn't made a link to  
the newer perl! On the other one I had made a link but misspelled       
/usr/local/lib/perl to /usr/loval/lib/perl                              
 
How come one has to send a question to questions@freebsd.org to be able
to answer it by oneself? ;-)

Can you tell me more about LDAP or where I can find information on that? I
really don't know what it is, and heard someone else talking about the
solution with LDAP. The only thing is that LDAP for NT would cost
something, but I don't know if that's such a big problem... I just don't
know if it is THE solution for the problem :-)

BTW, there is some other product that does exactly what we want: You can
find it on www.syntunix.com - I found it when searching the web. But: it's
expensive, and I'd like to look at other, better, free options also.

I think that maybe with the smblib we could make something too btw; you
can set and compare winnt passwords, but I don't know if that really works
and if that's the solution.

Another solution is PAM: I don't know if FreeBSD supports PAM (I don't
think so, the only unix I saw with it was RedHat) but there are PAM
modules for nt-domains, so all authentication goes to NT domains from that
unix box... If it would be possible to export the PAM database with NIS it
would be a great solution, however I'd rather do it vise-versa: the main
database on the UNIX (OR shared).

Any thoughts?

You cannot do this without going to extreme hacker type measures.

Huh?  That doesn't sound much like disk connectors.

I suppose that's the question we should ask you.  Typically, modern
motherboards have two on-board controllers, each of which will handle
a master and possibly also a slave.

Fascinating.

Ah.  You state "My IDE card will handle four devices".  This can't be
on one controller (see above).  If you have two controllers, they'll
be called wdc0 and wdc1.  By default, the system will allocate IDs
dynamically during probing; this is probably the best place to see
what's going on.  Could you excerpt the relevant parts of the output
of dmesg, please?

I'm copying -ports on this one, since it's really their business.
Please follow up there.

It's free software.  Go for it, as long as you don't breach the
Berkeley License (which is pretty unlikely in a BSDI environment).

I think so.  I'd expect BSDI to be compatible enough that you wouldn't
need more than the occasionally correction to the ports, and that you
don't need to do much more than install the ports collection and go
for it.  You'll also need some files in /usr/share/mk.

I am considering re-arranging several servers (10) into a NFS cluster
where each server has very little local disk. All the home directories
and files would be moved onto a central NFS server. I think the benefit
would be easier management & backups.

Each server currently has between 9 and 18G of user disk space and 
iostat reports an average of 40 sectors per second of the user disks
with bursts up to 2000 sps.

Do you think that a FreeBSD NFS server can easily handle this amount 
of traffic?

Has any benchmarking been performed on the NFS implementation?

Thanks,

Joe

I'm trying to get my FreeBSD box (one modem, one network card) to route a 
win95 machine. I consulted a friend who has done it with a static ip (mine
is dynamic) and pppd (I use ppp). Everything seemed to work, but only the
two machines seemed to communicate via the ethernet; no communication to
the "outer world" occurred, although the modem called and ifconfig showed
that I had got an ip. For example, ping  did nothing
(or maybe it said that there's no route to host, don't remember), only
ping  did succeed.

I traced this to the firewall: whenever I have firewall functionality
configured in the kernel, I can't get my modem connection to work
(although I obtain an ip and there clearly is a connection). Any ideas?

Harri

Now when you mention it... I haven't checked messages and now I find a
lot of:
cy1: 304 more tty-level buffer overflows (total 2328)

This is in 2.2.6-RELEASE.

It seems to work fine anyway but maybe I'm missing something I haven't
noticed. What does the above error message mean exactly? Am I losing
data on the line?

Does FreeBSD 2.X ( more specifically, "FreeBSD (The Complete FreeBSD with
CDs)"
support Berkely packet filters?

Is there any source code for building applications that support filtering?

Other pointers?

The Linux version runs quite well under emulation.  To use it, make a
symlink of /usr/local to /opt.  Then copy the applix directory off the CD
to /opt.  Then run /opt/applix/bin/applix (I think that's the path), and
voila.  You could also delete any i18n files you don't need to save disk
space.  I use 4.3.7(version?) at home, and it works great.

Hi

I am new to FreeBSD,  and have recently installed v 2.2.6 using the
Complete FreeBSD book as guidance.

Every thing works fine apart from one thing.......

Whenever I do 'make' either to build a port or rebuid the kernal, at
some point through compilation the machine will crash with something
like this message:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Fatal trap 12:             page fault while in kernal mode
fault virtual address     = 0x8:573c418
fault code                   = supervisor read, page not present

                                 = DPL 0, pres1, def 321, gran 1
processor eflags        = interupt enabled, resume, IOPL=0
current process         = 467(ccl)
interupt mask            =
panic: page fault

syncing disks......
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I get the impression that its trying to reboot,  but it dosn't, at this
point I have to do a hard reboot.

It dosn't happen every time (I managed to port xemacs on the fifth
attempt) and its never at the same point,  but its only when I run
'make'.

As you can imagine this is ***really*** annoying.

Does anyone know why this is happening or (preferably) how to correct
the problem?

My system: Pentium 100,  1GB HD (DOS) 4GB HD (2GB DOS/ 1GB FreeBSD/ rest
unused) 40MB RAM

cheers

    Hi!

Does FreeBSD can communicate with APC SmartUPS 600.
I just installed it, but does not have support for
FreeBSD. If it is real, where i can find information
about it?

Thanks.

As root (not su'ed) I tried make install in /usr/ports/x11/ctwm

This is what it comes back with:

beef# make install >> Checksum OK for ctwm-3.5.tar.gz.  ===> Configuring
for ctwm-3.5 mv -f Makefile Makefile.bak imake -DUseInstalled
-I/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config Imakefile.c:8: Imake.tmpl: No such file or
directory
imake: Exit code 33.

Is there something wrong with the download of 2.2.7 or am I missing
something?

Peter,

According to the cy(4):
* cy%d: tty-level buffer overflow.  Problem in the application.  Input has
* arrived faster than the given module could process it and some has been
* lost.

Actually this means that there are problems somewhere in FreeBSD kernel
or Cyclades Cyclom-Y driver.
This is happening only with PCI Cyclom-Y cards (for me).
So, I guess you're using Cyclom YeP version, right?

1. login via serial port
2. run yes(1) (it will print `y' until interrupted)
3. switch to console (/dev/console)

You'll see your console is full of ``buffer overflow'' messages.
And, YES, you're loosing data. Sometime ago I was using 8YeP card,
and I had problems with dial-in ppp due to this `overflows'.
After I switched to ISA card (now I use 16Ye rev.1.x) the problems are
disappeared.

Try upsd-2.0 under sysutils in the ports. I use a version
that Doug White modified for 120V operation and it has
worked flawlessly for many months, including during the
power outages caused by the infamous New England ice storm
last winter.

apparently you have an older 486 machine possibly with a promise
ide vesa local bus card installed.

i would try putting both the hard drives on the VLB port since its faster, set
one to slave the other to master and put the cd-rom on the IDE port and set it
as slave.

i have this setup here and it works fine.

i had to add in berkeley packet filter device into my kernel in order to
run dhcp and it worked.  i don't know if that answers your question.
hopefully it's somewhat relevant.

Does FreeBSD 2.X ( more specifically, "FreeBSD (The Complete FreeBSD

support Berkely packet filters?

Is there any source code for building applications that support
filtering?

Other pointers?

didnt work
eithier, i had to hit the reset button. everything came back ok though.

hi.
Sorry for asking practically same question over and over again, but I
can't figure what else I could do.

I downloaded the fixed boot.flp for my 2.2.6 release. It worked fine and
I could install freebsd and packages ok. Then I build a custom kernel
and it worked fine for a while. Then suddenly when I tried to add some
packages (I was trying kde and found it terrible, so I started to search
for a new wm) i got this same error message that I already thought would
be history. 

Was it a mistake to build a own kernel, how can I fix it? I read that
problem report (conf/6576) about it, should i change that same file
somewhere in source and rebuild kernel?

We have more than one version of apache available in the ports

something very much similar to 'linux-admin' or 'linux-newbie' the Linux
mailling lists.

Many thanks,

Quintin.

hello, I have looked at handbook about diskless operation and
I have seen that I need to choose a server
why can't I use a FreeBSD box as server???

Hello, I was wondering if I can run FreeBSD, on my PC and Still have my
computer boot directly to Windows. Like Haing MS-DOS start and typing "Win"
to start Windows. I want to enter a file name with windows Running to start
FreeBSD. I'm not really sure how it works.

Its very importaint that FreeBSD won't change my computer so windows is
effected or that my HD isn't parationed.

Thank you very much!

the MSDOS files system in 2.2.7-RELEASE does work with with FAT32.

If you want to prevent accident removal of MSDOS files, you can always
mount the MSDOS filesystem read-only. The MSDOS routines have been running
here for a few months (first as a patch to 2.2.6) and I am very happy with
its operation.

> I got a ATI xpert@work 8mb AGP (nice card ;)

	The one I've got it the newest, greatest, bestest. :) It's a 
model above yours. It seems they're dropping the @work line, I guess it's 
not worth the extra production cost.

> Another question.. someone told me that freebsd is easy to install than
> linux... is this true?

	Hmmm... well I think that is really a function of your hardware. 
In my experience, people who install FreeBSD tend to build a machine 
tailored to it's addmittedly sometimes stringent requirements. But, as 
primarily a hardware person, and computer operator second, I believe you 
tend to get a very good, very stable, and very fast computer. 
	Linux on the other hand, has from the start been meant to run on 
anything and everything. With everybodies hand's in the pot so to speak, 
it does tend to support a heck of a lot more hardware, some of it not 
very well which tends to make things a lot more comlicated. Especially 
for someone who has dosen't know what an IRQ is.
	Now, my first Linux install was SlackWare 1.12 or something. It 
was a horrible experience. Once I got it installed, I had no idea where 
to go. I later got Redhat 4.0 on my computer and was faced with the same 
challenge again. About six months ago I installed FreeBSD, the only 
problems I had with it was PPP setup, seems everyone has that problem. Two 
weeks ago, I installed RedHat 5.1 on my SparcIPX, it was again, a big 
mess. It took me three days, and as many messages to mailing lists to 
figure out how to get a boot prompt. There is very little documentation 
for it, which made things harder. PLUS, the CDROM set didn't ship with 
the right boot images to make boot floppies, PLUS, the errata later said 
that S/Linux can't be booted off a CDROM in this paticual version. 
	All in all, FreeBSD has been for me easier to install by far. It 
seems to have a lot better quality control, a better help mailing list, 
and a lot more knowledgable people, and if FreeBSD worked on the lower 
end SparcStations, I would have installed it in a heartbeat.

I'm fairly new to using FreeBSD, however i mail ordered the Walnut Creek CD
installation and it came with a massivly thick book that has been able to
help me through any difficulties I've had with it prior to this past week. 
I partitioned off a nice 500MB chunk and installed FreeBSD onto it will
very little difficulty and have been blindly fumbling around learning as I
go. Finally, about a week ago I decided I needed a way to move data from my
FAT32 partion(for Windows 95) to my BSD partion and i sectioned off another
small chunk of around 120MB and partioned it FAT16.  This is where my
problem comes in, I can't get my Logical drive D: mounted in BSD, no matter
how much I beg, pray, or read it just doesn't seem to want to work.
  i started off trying    mount -t msdos /dev/wd0s5 /mnt
and later moved on to trying just about any wd0* device..wd0s5a-f as well. 
I get the same error message no matter what i try(as long as it is a valid
msdos partition.
   'device not configured'     I don't know exactly what configuring the
device would entail, i created the wd0s5 dev by the command
(from the dev directory)  ./MAKEDEV wd0s5   

this is what my 4 gig IDE hard drive looks like acording to Fdisk

I formatted D: from Windows 95 and have no trouble at all copying data to
it, so i'm
hoping this is just me overlooking some elusive command that will FreeBSD
search 
for the logical drive.

Hi,

When you ``make'' a port, it first looks in /usr/ports/distfiles/ for 
the distribution archive(s).  In the XFree86 case, it looks in 
/usr/ports/distfiles/xc (just to confuse things...).

If it doesn't find the archive there, it'll try to download it.  This 
is done by first looking in the MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE variable (You 
can ``make MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE=/some/place/that/i/like/''), then in 
/cdrom/distfiles, then it tries to get the archive from the 'net.

So, /usr/ports/distfiles/xc is the magic directory in your case :-)

The ``make configure'' will unpack and patch the source archives.  
The `tar' and edit mentioned on my web site does the ``add support 
for NeoMagic'' bit, and the ``make install'' does the rest.

Drop me a line if you have more problems.

Cheers.

	FreeBSD is a full featured, functioning operating system. Like 
all operating systems, it must have it's own partion on your harddrive, 
and takes over the computer. Your example above is erroneous, and 
Windows is not a operating system, it is merely a 'GUI shell' for MS-Dos. 
Now, if you wish, there are several utilities that will help you 
repartion your hard drive with minimal data loss, but it is still HIGHLY 
recommended to backup any important data. You can then at boot time, 
choose which OS to boot, Dos or FreeBSD. If you don't want to mess the 
computer up so family members can use it, you should look into buying a 
cheap 486 and dedicating is totally to FreeBSD, you'll be plesantly 
surprised by it's performance and stability versus your Windows95/98 laden 
Pentium machines.

NetBSD, which is also an *excellent* operating system, will run like a
champion on that lower end Sparc.

I'm not sure about about OpenBSD on an old Sparc.

WOW!  It is a Promise card.  I found a chip labled "1994 Promise PDC20630 
506".  I'm impressed.

I've been trying one disk on each port.  Next time I try, I'll use your 
setup.

In your kernel, do you have both wcd0 and wcd1?

	I realize that you are being humorous here, but there actually are good
reasons for this. In no particular order, there are two main reasons. 

1) You are switching from primary focus on the objective (solving the
problem) to a different primary focus (describing the problem) which
gives your tired conscious brain a break and gives your relatively
refreshed sub-conscious a chance to work on it.

2) The act of describing the problem to an imaginary objective third
party can help you organize your thoughts along different lines, thereby
prompting your brain to see a solution it might otherwise have missed. 

	I often compose a "help me" message about a problem, then file it away
to send later if further tinkering doesn't actually solve it. 

	In other words, don't feel bad, we've all been there. :)

Good luck,

Doug

Heh, It sounds like your trying to use something like DOS/Windows to just
'copy' the image onto the disk, is that correct?

If so, you're doing it wrong.  If in DOS, you need to use 'rawrite.exe' or
a simaliar product.  If in Windows, you'll need to reboot into DOS and
still use rawrite or a simaliar product.  

The idea here, is to make an 'image', or an exact bit for bit, byte for
byte copy.  You can't do that with copy.

I have got freebsd and windows95 on my machine and initially
when I had installed the system I had allocated around 300M of
space,Now I want to increase the size of the filesystem , is there
anyway I can do it? or do I have to reformat the hard drive and install
the
system again.

thanks
Prashanth

/usr/X11R6/bin/X does exist, what do you mean with pointing to a valid X

Partition Magic for win95 should do the job.
But it's not a shareware and it cost something.

You need to recompile your kernel with a line in the conf file like

pseudo-device	bpfilter 4

change the 4 to match the number of Berkely packet filters you want.

See the handbook (section 5) for instructions on how to build a
custom kernel.

I have spent some more hours on this now :(

I can't get it to work the way I want. I can get it to work by
setting both servers as masters with NOPUSH=True and then using
ypxfr -h for all maps in a script started every 5 minutes in cron
on the slave. This causes unnecessary network traffic and a temporary
mismatch in the maps between the servers.

The problem seems to be that the slave is both master and
client. It seems that when the "master master" does its push,
the "slave master" tries to do ypxfr from itself, because it is
its own master... Not very meaningful.

Please give me the solution to this if there is one. I don't
think my current solution is very optimal.

Thanks for your time!

I have a no-name 4 port serial card which has worked with FreeBSD,
but I haven't yet figured out what trickery is required to set it up.

I also know (from using it elsewhere) that it is extremely difficult to
tell whether or not the external cable is properly connected to the
card (caused hours of angst elsewhere). It requires a large amount of
brute force and the angle has to be just right, then the screws hold it
in place fine.

Before I start learning how to make FreeBSD use those serial ports, is
there any quick way to test whether that *physical* connection exists?
I suspect it's a catch 22, unless I've overlooked something.

That's all I want to know for now; if I can't establish that it's
plugged in, there's little point torturing myself with this card.

Let's say I have two files in two different directories.
/foo/bar.aaa
/bar/foo.aaa

I want to rename the extensions to:
/foo/bar.bbb
/bar/foo.bbb

Can someone give point me to some sort of shell or perl script, or possibly
just a command that can let me do this simultaneously?

Thanks,

For one-time replacements, I recommend ports/misc/mmv.  Lets you do
things like: mmv "*.aaa" "=1.bbb"

Or, if you're script-minded or want portability to systems without mmv:

for i in */*.aaa ; do
   mv $i ${i%.aaa}.bbb
done

should work.  If you want to recurse abitrary directory levles, replace
*/*.aaa with `find . -name "*.aaa"` .

I assume you're doing this with anonymous ftp.  Anonymous ftp issues a
chroot(2), which means that the effective root file system is the home
directory of the user ftp, usually /var/spool/ftp.  Any symbolic link
must be relative to this directory, but normally that means you don't
need a symlink: you could use a normal ("hard") link and have less
confusion.

I use a breakout box.  I can't think of any software method offhand.

I am having the exact same problem.  I have an STB card with the S3
VIRGE chipset.  When the X server tries to leave graphics mode, the
machine hangs and vertical stripes appear.  The machine is dead at that
point; Control-alt-backspace does nothing and it won't respond to ping. 
I use a separate X terminal, so I am not that hindered by this; it only
happens at the end of a session.  It would be a show stopper it I didn't
have a separate X terminal.

Have you found out anything?  The XFree86 site had nothing on this. 
Other than this one problem the X server works great.  I what did you
learn in trying the SVGA server?

> PPS Is there any hardware-specific mailing lists on freebsd.org?

Send a message to majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG with the word 'lists' in the
body.  The list server will respond with the names of all of the
FreeBSD.ORG mailing lists.

Hi!

   Any idea where I might go (or who I might ask) regarding successful
ISDN Terminal Adapter configurations (hard and/or software) for FreeBSD?
I've been pulling my hair out trying to get a TA working properly, and I
think its time I asked for help, especially considering my company has
elected my as their new sys admin (good or bad, I don't know yet). At
least they're letting me do it my way (grin).

   Suggestions, comments or useful spells or incantations are welcome.

   Thanks in advance!

This is probably a really silly question, but what the heck  we all chase
our tails on occasions.

I have set up a dialup port on my FreeBSD system using standard getty and it
all seems to work ok.  I can dial in, log in and all is well but I get timed
out after
10 seconds of inactivity.  Where can I set this timeout?  Any suggestions
would be most appreciated ...

Cheers,

I need to replace the boot drive on one of our servers... Is possible to
easily make a duplicate copy(boot manager and all) ?? I recall this being
discussed awhile back, but I dont remember the thread and can't seem to find
it in the archives...

thanks.

If they're _exactly_ the same drives, you can use dd.

dd if=/dev/wd0 of=/dev/wd1       (from wd0 to wd1)

You can set a blocksize too, but dd usually chooses a considerate setting.

Rather don't do this while either drive is mounted, which means doing it from
a floppy install, probably, else putting both drives in another machine.

If they're not the same drives, there are other ways of doing things, which
other people will be able to explain better than I.

Hello:
	I understand that ATAPI compatible CD-RW drives are supported
under 2.2.7 while under 2.2.6 only SCSI CD-RW drives were supported.
I've just upgraded to 2.2.7 and can't find any references to CD-RW
drives via an IDE interface. It seems that all of the commands
still are restricted to SCSI devices.
	I posted a question about this some time ago for 2.2.6 and received
a number of replies, one of which was from a developer saying that the
changes were going into 2.2.7.
	Can someone please give me a hint? 

Thanx

echo "subscribe freebsd-questions | mail freebsd.org"

there's also a -chat and a -newbie, but -questions is where questions

Dear Sirs,
I have recently acquired a copy of Freebsd 2.26.  Only to be 
disappointed and frustrated with the install.  I have a cdrom and plenty 
of disk space.  When cued to alloted a certain amount of memory space 
(minimum being as yous mention 20M) I'm at a loss as to "set" the 
specifics.  (ie. / , swap/ var)  as required.  It seems a hassle and I 
don't want it to be so.  Can you help.

I'm experiencing very slow ftp between these two systems, who
are on the same local network. I also have a Solaris 2.6 box
on the same net and if I ftp from either to that, it's nice 
and speedy. Is this a known bug (on freebsd or Sun's part) for
which there is a known fix or workaround?

If you're new to the BSD scene, rather not involve yourself with them.  In
fact, there's rarely any reason to touch those accounts or files owned by
them conciously.

I think you need to install the X development tar.

In 2.2.6 it lives in the first cdrom under XF86332/X332prog.tgz

It's not that silly a question.  I certainly had to look it up.
Basically, you start with a root user with no password, and that's
about the only login you should use.  Looking at the 2.2.7
distribution /etc/passwd, however, I find:

root:*:0:0:Charlie &:/root:/bin/csh
toor:*:0:0:Bourne-again Superuser:/root:
daemon:*:1:1:Owner of many system processes:/root:/sbin/nologin
operator:*:2:5:System &:/usr/guest/operator:/bin/csh
bin:*:3:7:Binaries Commands and Source,,,:/:/sbin/nologin
games:*:7:13:Games pseudo-user:/usr/games:/sbin/nologin
news:*:8:8:News Subsystem:/:/sbin/nologin
man:*:9:9:Mister Man Pages:/usr/share/man:/sbin/nologin
uucp:*:66:66:UUCP pseudo-user:/var/spool/uucppublic:/usr/libexec/uucp/uucico
xten:*:67:67:X-10 daemon:/usr/local/xten:/sbin/nologin
pop:*:68:6:Post Office Owner:/nonexistent:/sbin/nologin
nobody:*:65534:65534:Unprivileged user:/nonexistent:/sbin/nologin

In other words, you *can't* log in to any except root, toor (root with
a Bourne shell) and uucp (which will give you a uucico).  I'd guess
that they all don't have a password.

BTW, don't edit /etc/passwd.  It's a generated file; use vipw or
adduser instead.

Sure.  Let the install do it for you.  But 20 MB is far too little;
you'd need at least 200 to make a useful installation.  Under 500 MB
you probably *do* want to divide the disk yourself.  For a small
installation, take one file system (/) and as much swap space as you
can spare.  Probably 100 MB is adequate.  For more details, see "The
Complete FreeBSD", second edition
(http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/bsdbook2.htm).

They are not the same drive... the old is a 545m, and the new is about 2
gig. Would love to hear any ideas, as i'd rather avoid having to
reinstall...

Most of these users don't login, so don't have home directories or passwords.
They /mostly/ own things. setuid binaries may become "daemon"
or whatever. Often root-privilege daemons will become one of these
users (daemon, often) to give up root privilege when it is no longer
needed.

Nobody is nobody: the least possible user. he has an "account", i.e.
he has a uid, but should own no files. The script that builds
the 'locate' database (a list of many of the files on the system),
changes its uid to "nobody" and gid to group "nobody", to avoid
listing entries files that no ordinary user should see.

uucp is if you're caught in a time warp around 1988 and need to run
the old uucp networking stuff. (You already know if you need this).

you might activate operator, if you're a large site and need
a non-root account for operators. I don't know the real utility of this.
(Usually taking care of tape drives and line printers. Also the
card punch and reader :)

Nah, a dumb question is along the lines of "Why can't I read the
programs on the other side of the cdrom?"
