You don't even get a glimpse of the power/fun of FreeBSD until you're connected to the net. It took me an embarassingly long length of time to figure out ppp the first time around; I've since connected 3 other boxes in less than 5 minutes each. (UNIX is definitely easier the 2nd time around). Read the tutorial and download the latest version of PPP at http://www.awfulhak.org as this will save several hours of frustration.

Do you know for 100% that you have removed the hackers, and all their equipment from your compromised system? It's not uncommon for hackers once they have a connection to leave numerous back doors in the system - so they can get in again... Even your firewall won't help with that... The only way you can be 100% sure you have got rid of them is probably to either reinstall the machine, or break out the backups form a time you are _certain_ you weren't hacked... Once you have the new machine up, follow all the security guidelines (i.e. use a firewall like your doing, make sure the machine only runs the services you need - e.g. disable everything you don't need from inetd etc.) Only then will you stand a chance of keeping them out... As for attacks via UDP - this is certainly possible, though I've not seen any exploits for FreeBSD and UDP for as long as I can remember... :) -Kp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Dec 20 08:37:48 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA26100 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 20 Dec 1998 08:37:48 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from smtp-out2.bellatlantic.net (smtp-out2.bellatlantic.net [199.45.39.157]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA26095 for ; Sun, 20 Dec 1998 08:37:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from DougC1@bellatlantic.net) Received: from doug (doug@client-151-197-111-161.bellatlantic.net [151.197.111.161]) by smtp-out2.bellatlantic.net (8.9.1/8.9.1) with SMTP id LAA00814 for ; Sun, 20 Dec 1998 11:38:54 -0500 (EST) From: "Doug" To: Subject: PCMCIA Date: Sun, 20 Dec 1998 11:24:04 -0500 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook IMO, Build 9.0.2212 (4.71.2419.0) Importance: Normal X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.0810.800 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hey, Could anyone provide me with a good resource of info about using PCMCIA cards in FreeBSD?

About all that anyone could give you from this is pointers on how you might isolate the problem. So, here's a bundle of the usual bits of advice. Pretty much everyone who's come to the freebsd-security list about getting hacked this year has been hacked through the popper bug. If you're running popper, upgrade to the latest version or to a different pop server. If your hackers have been able to create an account, then they have root priviledges, and have probably installed a backdoor or two. You can not expect to cover every possible vulnerability that may have been introduced. Reinstall from scratch as soon as is practical, and install tripwire while you're at it (before you connect the newly installed OS to the network). You say you think you're being hacked through udp. Why? How have you set up your firewall. What traffic do you expect to see, and what blocks and logging do you have in place for other traffic. Go through all of your network services (netstat -a) and for each open port find out exactly what version of what software you are running. With a list of these in hand, search bugtraq, rootshell, fyodors etc for exploits that affect you. For every service you run as root, look to see if you can run it under a different uid. For each service, identify who you expect to be using it from where. Limit where services can be accessed from accordingly. Use ipfw and/or tcpwrappers. Run a few of the major scanners on yourself. ISS, SATAN, COPS. Set syslog up to pass your logs out to another machine which you trust. ie get your logs out before they get wiped. Back up now if you don't have a back up. Don't trust this backup any more than you must. Change your passwords. Remove shells from every account that doesn't need it. Disable rhosts if you don't need it. Disable suid bits where possible. Consider where sniffers might be on your network and check this out. (You should *NEVER* send root passwords as clear text. Use ssh.) If your security is commercially important and you don't have the skills to deal with your problem, then consider hiring help.

Manual subscription method is to send a message to majordomo@freebsd.org with the line "subscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body. There are other commands you can send in the same message (one command per line) such as "lists" to be sent a list of the current lists, and "which" to find out what lists you are subscribed to. Also "help" for a list of commands. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

Agreed, ftp or fetch is the Right Way To Download Stuff.

I use qmail in the same way you are attempting to. I found it very irratating to change my MUA config everytime I connected to a different ISP. Thus I setup qmail on my laptop to be able to deliver email for me. Depending on which ISP I connect to I get a variety of dynamic IP addresses. Edit /etc/host.conf and make sure that 'hosts' appears before 'bind' in the list. Edit /etc/hosts and add: 127.0.0.1 mylastname.myisp.com mylastname Then run /var/qmail/configure/config while you are _not_ connected to the internet. -- Brian Litzinger > On Sun, 20 Dec 1998, Peter A.

It's the traditional ``small'' editor. On my PDP-11, it is all of 9418 bytes long. vi is 82438 bytes long and is in /usr/ucb (since it's BSD software). Sure, you can argue that this is no longer appropriate. But the shared libraries are also in /usr, so any editor in the root file system must be statically linked. Then the question arises: which editor should it be. The answer's simple: the one *you* want. Just link it statically and put it in /bin (not /sbin).

I have been using FreeBSD as my home and work desktops for 3 years, plus I use FreeBSD at work for various network tasks. My real question is however, "What does it take to get application software vendors to start writing 'native' FreeBSD apps?". I just tried the Scriptics TCL/TK plugin for Netscape and I haven't got it working yet. Then I found out that I need to run the linux emulation to get the plugin to run and that sort of bothers me. I just installed linux on a laptop and to tell you the truth, I am NOT impressed with linux. Other than the fact that there is a lot of application support for linux there seems to be little else worthy of note about linux. I did not write to run linux into the ground, instead I wanted to find out what I can do to prompt the apps vendors to write native FreeBSD apps.

On many systems, it's all you get in /bin anyway, and BSD is known for being rather conservative in that aspect.

The kernel compile is OK with a few bug fixes and with MULTICAST option set. One problem is that the driver freezes after the first multicast session, I tried it with MulticastClient and Server in Java tutorial. Next problem is that it does not let more than one multicast client to run. I also tried Jim Binkley's driver but this driver could not recognize PCMCIA card. Does anyone have a working driver for the newest FreeBSD (2.2.7) that supports 2.4GHz cards? Maybe I should switch to Linux, Linux supports multicast just like Solaris.

We have a class C busted into 8 subnets. The first 2 are on our ethernet, and the others are connected through dedicated dialups on a terminal server. I am using routed, and have ipforwarding set to YES. There is also a cisco router connecting us to the internet via T1 line. The problem is that things are very slow between the first 2 subnets. If I copy something from a machine in the .0 network to the .32 network, it's about 100x slower. If I copy a file withing the same subnet, it's fine. They are both on ethernet and should be fast. Any ideas?

You still can't cat a wav through /dev/audio, though :) -rob ( www.namodn.com ) ( robert@namodn.com ) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Dec 20 19:07:48 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA25280 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 20 Dec 1998 19:07:48 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from atlas.iexpress.net.au (atlas.iexpress.net.au [203.38.34.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA25275 for ; Sun, 20 Dec 1998 19:07:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mikey@iexpress.net.au) Received: from localhost (mikey@localhost) by atlas.iexpress.net.au (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id LAA00141; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 11:07:39 +0800 (WST) (envelope-from mikey@iexpress.net.au) Date: Mon, 21 Dec 1998 11:07:38 +0800 (WST) From: Michael Slater To: Jason McKay cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: pap-secrets?

Tried an upgrade from 2.2.1R over the net with /stand/sysinstall on one of the machines on my LAN. (Minimal - since it is a client for NFS and NIS. However for the purpose of the upgrade it is "deconfigured." Everything is turned off.) Got through all of the small stuff like the /etc/sysconfig to /etc/rc.conf conversion, small adjustments to /etc/fstab, and then forgetting the address of my LAN card. I boots but no login. It stops after what looks like the whole boot process right where it prints the date and time. Then nothing. It reboots with a ctrl-alt-del and I can bring it up single user, mount all file systems, and do just about everything I would expect. What Am I Missing?! (Other than brains...) It is right where I had it when I did a minimun install from the CDROM. Thanks in advance! (Now to sleep.)

First I wonna thank you for what you are doing! That's great & really helpfull! But I got a problem that's not covered in your FAQs. So I decided to write you (hoping smb will read it :-). I'm trying to put FreeBSD on my 386 DX40(4mb) & connect it via NE1000compat. to my Pentium133(24mb). I built a new kernel for Pent, compiled it & it worked. But when I built a new kernel for 386 & installed it my comp (386) hanged up after a string: npx0 at 0xf0-0xff irq 13 flags 0x1 on motherboard. I know this option is mandatory, so I can't disable it & it's about coprocessor. I have 386DX so there is a hardware coprocessor. I disabled MATH_EMULATION in kernel. It didn't help. I enabled it - it didn't help niether. So what's the problem - I don't get it. Please answer me, cause there is no BSD guru around in my town (I'm from Russia). With all my respect Vladimir.

Nevertheless, 3.0 is generally stable (I did crash my 3.0 box with Xfree 3.3.3) - Some people are also using 3.0 on production servers. 3.0 gives you a better disk performance for IDE disks and generally uses more recent compilation tools (for example, MMX instructions should work under 3.0 - not sure of the status under 2.2.x) 3.0 is the branch where new things are tested (for example Linux kernel threads which are used by StarOffice 5.0) There should be a 3.0-Stable branch forking in the beginning of '99 TfH > hello > I thought 3.0 version is not still a snapshot and it had been > released so it is stable enough for using...am I wrong? > so why is it still called current? > > thanks > > +-------------------------------------------------+ > | Name : Evren Yurtesen - yurtesen@ispro.net.tr | > | S-mail: Talikkokatu 6B 26, 20540 Turku/FINLAND | > | Home:+358-2-2379095 Work:+358-40-5185215 | > +-------------------------------------------------+ > > > 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 Mon Dec 21 02:58:23 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id CAA07055 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 02:58:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from alcatel.fr (gatekeeper.alcatel.fr [194.133.58.131]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id CAA07050 for ; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 02:58:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Thierry.Herbelot@alcatel.fr) From: Thierry.Herbelot@alcatel.fr Received: from alcatel.fr (gatekeeper-ssn.alcatel.fr [155.132.180.244]) by mailgate.alcatel.fr (ALCANET/SMTP) with ESMTP id LAA24953; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 11:56:28 +0100 Received: from lune.telspace.alcatel.fr (lune.telspace.alcatel.fr [155.132.144.65]) by aifhs2.alcatel.fr (ALCANET/SMTP2) with ESMTP id LAA14881; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 11:55:48 +0100 (MET) Received: from telss1 (telss1.telspace.alcatel.fr [155.132.51.4]) by lune.telspace.alcatel.fr (8.9.1a/8.9.1) with SMTP id LAA07575; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 11:37:59 +0100 (MET) Received: from telspace.alcatel.fr by telss1 (4.1/SMI-4.1) id AA02838; Mon, 21 Dec 98 11:43:16 +0100 Received: from localhost by telspace.alcatel.fr with SMTP (1.40.112.12/16.2) id AA274706524; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 11:35:24 +0100 X-Openmail-Hops: 1 Date: Mon, 21 Dec 98 11:35:00 +0100 Message-Id: In-Reply-To: <367E1086.6FD8F038@qatar.net.qa> Subject: Re : afterstep Mime-Version: 1.0 To: sodah@qatar.net.qa Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; name="Re" Content-Disposition: inline; filename="Re" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, How did you install aterstep ?

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi! --- I'm in the need of playing raw audio data through the PC-Speaker device /dev/pcaudio. I have configured my 3.0-RELEASE system with the appropriate kernel device line for the pca0 device. The kernel recognizes the device at boot time, but I cannot get it to work. Is there any documentation about the pca kernel driver? I could not find any manpages or else. Another thing that made me wonder is that there is a kernel driver but no userland program which enables me to play sounds using this device. In the absence of such a program I wrote a little program by myself which tries to output raw audio data to /dev/pcaudio using write(2), but all I get is a "Bad file descriptor" error code from the write(2) call. What am I doing wrong, or is this driver not functioning at all ? Any help appreciated. Regards, Mickey -- (__) (@@) Andreas S.

After my program does int fd = open("/dev/cuaa1", O_RDWR, 0); .... int st; int rc = ioctl(fd, TIOCMGET, &st); rc becomes -1 and errno becomes 25 (it means "inappropriate ioctl for device").

You can probably fix this by using pkg_delete to remove the jpeg library port and the afterstep port. Then re-download the .tar files from ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports. Tar xvf them, cd , and then make install. Typing "ls /var/db/pkg" will give you a list of the names of ports and packages in your system. Basically, your system can't use the shared library which manages jpegs. AfterStep requires this to display jpeg-based icons. The procedure that I recommended will uninstall whatever version of the jpeg library that you have and afterstep, then reinstall them both.

Is FreeBSD > comparable or better than NT? Using the wine package, you can run a certain number of Win32 and Win16 programs. If you're going to load FreeBSD 3.0, you can run many (most?) MS-DOS programs. Note that the wine system is still in development and you probably don't want to use it for mission critical apps. As to your second question, let me tell you a few facts and let you decide. FreeBSD is more configurable, has better support for the Internet's open standards, tends to have visibly better performance on the same hardware, has better logging of things like reasons for crashes and reboots, ppp status and errors, and user actions. It never costs more than $70 (and that's with 4 CDs and a think book) and can cost as little as $0.00. These costs are legal, not pirated. Windows NT has a few advantages in supporting Windows NT Workstation, but not many. Windows NT is more popular with "pointy haired bosses" and you have to justify this choice less often. Of course, what you save in time spent on justification is MORE than lost in time spent on trying to fix it. Windows NT has a larger following, so turning to a friend for help is more likely to be successful. On the other hand, if you don't mind using the FreeBSD handbook and FAQ (see http://www.freebsd.org... they're both free), email, usenet, and IRC for technical support, you're more likely to get a solid answer. This is based off of 3 years experience in Unix (NetBSD, FreeBSD, Ultrix, Solaris, etc.) and 8 months of Windows NT consulting plus 9 months of Windows NT user-level experience. And trust me, the experience in Windows NT Server consulting was not by choice. Oh, and consider this: I replaced a $12000-$15000 Windows NT web proxy and mail server with a $250 FreeBSD proxy once. (This was due to a problem with the NT box and was a temporary measure.) No one noticed! Well, OK, I received a single complaint that the email server was down, but no one noticed a speed hit on the proxy. The NT server had 192MB of RAM, 3 HDs, two 100Base NICs, 2 Pentium IIs, etc. The FreeBSD box was a spare 486 that I had. It had 66MHz, 16MB of RAM, and one 10Base-T NIC. *I* prefer FreeBSD and am using it at my job. The choice is your's of course. NT has better "butt-covering" value, but you'll have to explain why it crashed. FreeBSD can run for months or even years without problems if you have stable hardware.

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! Due to a kind of 'accident' (removal of the BIOS battery!), I have some problems with my mouse. I can't use it properly, in fact, I can't use it at all... At boot time, I get: sio0: configured irq 4 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on isa sio0: type 16550A What does this mean? I also had a problem with my modem, but I found a way to rule it. It was an IRQ setting in the BIOS that did it. But for the com port (the mouse = /dev/cuaa2), I have found nothing. The strangest thing is that it runs OK under DOS... Thanks for any help!

Communication via ppp from the machine running ppp is fine without aliasing enabled. The only other thing I remember changing was the /etc/hosts file. For the life of me, I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong now, and it's driving me nuts, since everything was working so well before the reboot. If I do PPP ON home> set log tcp/ip hdlc I can see that when I set PPP ON home> alias enable yes the source IP address in the outgoing packets changes from the correct value to all zeros. This is true even when sending from the system running ppp. -- Graeme Tait - Echidna ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- netstat -rn output: Routing tables Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire default 10.65.69.14 UGSc 3 45 tun0 10.65.69.14 yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy UH 3 0 tun0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 2 86 lo0 xxx.xxx.xxx link#2 UC 0 0 xxx.xxx.xxx.15 0:a0:c9:c5:c0:94 UHLW 0 322 ep0 416 xxx.xxx.xxx.18 0:10:4b:56:32:a1 UHLW 2 30 ep0 947 yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy is a static IP address, dynamically assigned by ppp negotiation, and is the address corresponding to the system hostname.

I'm sorry Igor, but english is not my first language, so what do you mean by "accounted"? If you are using modems in a leased line config, yes they act as a null modem between you and your provider.

You can install it from /stand/sysinstall, or manually (there's a file on the CD somewhere called ports.tgz which contains the ports tree).

I've got everything working correctly except the routes on the server side. The PPP server box is also a router to my company's intranet (which also gets us access to the Internet). The server box has 4 ethernet network interfaces (both public and private, with NATD on the private interface). The server box is running FreeBSD-2.8-stable from a couple of weeks ago. I'm using mgetty-1.1.14 to receive the incoming call from the other subnet. The connection comes up fine, but I need to add routes on the server box so that we can get to the connected [PPP client] subnet.

If I delete the routes and manually add them (with 'route add -net 192.168.1.0 192.168.1.1') the same thing happens. But if I use the -interface option: route add -net 192.168.1.0 192.168.1.1 -interface route add -net 192.168.2.0 192.168.1.1 -interface then the routes get added correctly. Now the question is, how do I make PPP do the same thing? I've tried doing this from ppp.linkup in a shell script, but it doesn't run as root and fails trying to modify the routing table. Any other ideas short of writing a setuid program to do this?

This all works fine. Now, I want to add a second ethernet. I have tried two enet cards with the same result. At least one of these cards was known to work in a previous machine. The problem is that the router is unable to talk to any of the machines on the second ethernet. I know the hub is good, because machines on it can talk to each other. The link light on the hub and card light, indicating that I likely have a good cable and connection. Pinging from a host on the 2nd enet to the router or from the router to a host gives ``host is down'' messages. The address space for the two enets on the router are split class C addrs (25 bits of network, 7 of host). ifconfig of the 2 enet cards gives: ie0: flags=8a43 mtu 1500 inet 198.49.217.129 netmask 0xffffff80 broadcast 198.49.217.255 ether 00:aa:00:a8:cd:19 de0: flags=8a43 mtu 1500 inet 198.49.217.4 netmask 0xffffff80 broadcast 198.49.217.127 inet 198.49.217.16 netmask 0xffffffff broadcast 198.49.217.16 ether 00:00:f8:01:80:c6 media: autoselect (10baseT/UTP) status: active ie0 is the enet card on the new net. de0 works fine and machines route through it with no problems. netstat -rn shows: Routing tables Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire default 198.59.115.109 UGSc 84 11630 ppp0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 12 370 lo0 129.121 198.59.115.109 UGc 0 0 ppp0 140.222 198.59.115.109 UGc 0 0 ppp0 192.160.121 198.59.115.109 UGc 0 0 ppp0 198.49.44 198.59.115.109 UGc 0 0 ppp0 198.49.217.0 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff UHLWb 0 1 de0 => 198.49.217/25 link#1 UC 0 0 198.49.217.3 0:20:af:3f:7c:d6 UHLW 0 261 de0 622 198.49.217.4 127.0.0.1 UH 9 5530 lo0 198.49.217.6 0:a0:24:5f:c9:dc UHLW 0 386 de0 872 198.49.217.9 link#1 UHLW 1 1 198.49.217.10 8:0:69:7:60:2 UHLW 4 11703 de0 1025 198.49.217.16/32 link#1 UC 0 0 198.49.217.127 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff UHLWb 0 1 de0 198.49.217.128/25 link#3 UC 0 0 198.49.217.129 0:aa:0:a8:cd:19 UHLW 0 1 lo0 198.49.217.255 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff UHLWb 0 1 ie0 198.59.115/25 198.59.115.109 UGc 2 12 ppp0 198.59.115.109 198.49.217.4 UH 97 0 ppp0 199.89.16 198.59.115.109 UGc 0 0 ppp0 204.29.236 198.59.115.109 UGc 0 0 ppp0 204.134.1 198.59.115.109 UGc 0 0 ppp0 204.134.3 198.59.115.109 UGc 0 0 ppp0 204.134.4/23 198.59.115.109 UGc 0 0 ppp0 204.134.8.128 198.59.115.109 UGH 0 0 ppp0 204.134.9 198.59.115.109 UGc 0 0 ppp0 204.134.10/23 198.59.115.109 UGc 0 0 ppp0 204.134.14 198.59.115.109 UGc 0 0 ppp0 204.134.78/23 198.59.115.109 UGc 0 0 ppp0 206.29.128/23 198.59.115.109 UGc 0 0 ppp0 208.25.221 198.59.115.109 UGc 0 0 ppp0 Suggestions about how to get the router talking on the 2nd enet? -- Kenneth Ingham ingham@i-pi.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 21 10:43:30 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA02841 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 10:43:30 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from post.mail.demon.net (post-22.mail.demon.net [194.217.242.7]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA02836 for ; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 10:43:29 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from freebsd-root@i-zone.demon.co.uk) Received: from [158.152.227.78] (helo=i-zone.demon.co.uk) by post.mail.demon.net with smtp (Exim 2.10 #1) id 0zsAId-00040z-00 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 18:43:24 +0000 Message-ID: Date: Mon, 21 Dec 1998 14:57:03 +0000 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: John Subject: shared object not found (libFnlib.so.0) MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Turnpike (32) Version 4.01 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello experts This question may belong on the X11 list but I'm not sure if X11 is solely affected.

I for one would rush right out to buy it, and from everything I read online these days, I am very sure it would be a hit. I'm sure the money could be put to good use for things such as advertising, pulling in sponsors....etc. I love FreeBSD and there are many others like me who would be willing to contribute aritcles on how we use FreeBSD, how to configure, projects, programs, porting applications, etc. I've used both FreeBSD and Linux, and I find FreeBSD to be superior in many ways. Is there some reason why a journal dedicated to FreeBSD can't be started? The newsletter is great, but it usually only contains articles by persons/organizations who are telling us how great FreeBSD is and how they have implemented it into their daily routines. A journal which featured FreeBSD would go a long way to further the advancements of the operating system and the Free Open Source Movement. Sincerely, Alan B.

First of all, what version of FreeBSD are you trying to install? Secondly, I generally see this problem if you disable the system console sc0 in the boot-time configuration. The 'conflicts' note is bogus -- it should conflict with psm0 since they use the same controller chip. Newer versions of FreeBSD don't complain about this. The test for this is to skip configuring devices -- if it works then don't touch sc0. :-) Doug White Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | www.freebsd.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 21 13:38:40 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA28507 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 13:38:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.eee.org (mail.eee.org [163.150.39.253]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA28498 for ; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 13:38:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from larry_nilsen@eee.org) Received: from eee.org (jtuser76.eee.org [163.150.24.171]) by mail.eee.org (8.8.6 (PHNE_14041)/8.8.6) with ESMTP id NAA25681 for ; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 13:38:18 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <367EBFC2.B5D3DA35@eee.org> Date: Mon, 21 Dec 1998 13:38:11 -0800 From: larry_nilsen X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.06 [en] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG" Subject: ld.so failed Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi im running FreeBSD 2.2.7 1) when i type at the prompt # startx this is my error message ld.so failed : Cant find shared library "libXmu.so.6.0 Ive looked at man ld.so but i didnt seem to find a answer why this error message comes up when im trying to startx.

I also see this with the generic 3.0-RELEASE kernel. I had to disable probes until I got the boot to succeed. This was on all of my machines running 3.0-RELEASE (two older 486's and a P-233) I disabled every ethernet device (during boot) and got everything to go. Then; after I got a system running, I remade kernels with only the devices I care about, and the problem went away. I should do a binary search to determine exactly which probe seems to lock up the machines - but one of them surely does (again, with 3.0-RELEASE) if the hardware you're probing for isn't there. [I waited for 30 minutes just to make sure it wasn't a time-out problem.] - Dave Rivers - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 21 14:14:22 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA02737 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 14:14:22 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mercury.webnology.com (mercury.webnology.com [209.155.51.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA02725 for ; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 14:14:13 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jooji@webnology.com) Received: from localhost (jooji@localhost) by mercury.webnology.com (8.9.1/8.8.8) with SMTP id RAA32657; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 17:20:27 -0600 (envelope-from jooji@webnology.com) Date: Mon, 21 Dec 1998 17:20:27 -0600 (CST) From: "Jasper O'Malley" To: Evren Yurtesen cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: 3.0 = current ?

Because that's exactly what it is, bleeding-edge current :) It's not meant to be used on production machines, or any machine you're not particularly prepared to have crash on you once in a while.

I am trying to set up a new machine through ftp. I am using a dependable 3Com 3c509 card. I have tried passive and active ftp. We do have a firwall, so I lean toward the passive. I turn debug on and ALT/F2 to see what is going on. DNS is working. I can ping the machine at this point from other ip clients. It gets to the login line and then just sits there until I get a 'service is no longer available' message. Any ideas. I set the same machine up with the identical parts just a month ago and had no problem. I download a new boot disk and it didn't help. I can network the client in DOS. I went into the options area and gave ftp my e-mail name. I can ftp with no problem to ftp.bsd.org on a workstation using the same hub. Is this something I'm doing or Saddam? * * John Garrett JCSD Technology Support To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 21 14:51:33 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA05999 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 14:51:33 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from inhaler.noopy.org (nvp.ne.mediaone.net [24.128.50.139]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id OAA05993 for ; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 14:51:31 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from nvp@mediaone.net) From: nvp@mediaone.net Received: (qmail 16562 invoked by uid 603); 21 Dec 1998 22:56:15 -0000 Message-ID: <19981221225615.16561.qmail@inhaler.noopy.org> Subject: Re: xlock In-Reply-To: <367ECADE.C87CB877@globix.com> from Roman Katsnelson at "Dec 21, 98 05:25:34 pm" To: rkatsnel@globix.com (Roman Katsnelson) Date: Mon, 21 Dec 1998 17:56:15 -0500 (EST) Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL38 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > Do you know of an xlock (or variation) exist such that it JUST locks the > station, without a screen saver of anysort?

Well, I'm not sure if this addresses your question or not.... I use tvtwm as my window manager (using a "virtual desktop" thaht is a 3x3 array). I'm also in the habit of using xautolock. And I have found that only the portion of the virtual desktop that is in the upper left-hand corner gets a pattern of any sort when xautolock invokes xlock: on the other desktops, the screen is locked, but nothing covers the images (which continue to update as appropriate). (Prompting for a password is, shall we say, "subtle".) Although this behavior might be surprising, I'm hesitant to accuse it of being a bug, and (given my mainframe experience) can well imagine environments in which such a facility might be quite useful indeed. (Consider 3rd-shift operations staff, who might need to monitor the progress of something, but who should not be changing things....)

At the beginning of this semester I started the Cisco Networking Academies course designed to make me all the System Administrator I can be. Well, to be quite frank, the course sucks. Also, it probably doesn't help that the teacher hardly knows how to turn on a computer. Maybe it will get better once the hardware gets here and we start building routing tables and playing with IOS and the like but... and even if it is better it's a year away. So, I ordered DNS and BIND, 3rd Edition - TCP/IP Network Administration, 2nd Edition - and The C Programming Language ANSI C Edition. I have a 266MHz k6 (bla), and a DX4/100(clone) (bla), i have them networked with a crossover cable, and have the 266 connected to the internet via dialup with a dynamic IP. Windows '95 is going to be run on the DX4, and FreeBSD 2.2.8 on the K6. I was wondering, with this setup, where would my efforts best be directed. What additional books, hardware, etc. should I acquire? (did I make a good choice in the books I did order). What do I need to know to jump into a field of unix system administration right out of high school (though I do plan to go to college). Also please don't say.. buy a Cisco router or someshit as I am pretty poor, these books were basically Christmas.

If you can even just borrow them from a library, the "TCP Illustrated" series by Stevens is excellent. (I attended one of his tutorials at the 1990 USENIX, decided he knew what he was talking about, and started buying his books. I've not been sorry.) "Building Internet Firewalls" (Chapman & Zwicky) is also excellent, and I've heard that a 2nd edition is in the works. Nice thing about the Stevens approach is that he goes into significant detail about what's going on and why; he also shows the results of using tcpdump in the context of a given problem/topic to be illustrated. david -- David Wolfskill UNIX System Administrator dhw@whistle.com voice: (650) 577-7158 pager: (650) 371-4621 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 21 17:19:40 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA25112 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 17:19:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from po4.wam.umd.edu (po4.wam.umd.edu [128.8.10.166]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id RAA25105 for ; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 17:19:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kee@wam.umd.edu) Received: from rac2.wam.umd.edu ((IDENT root)@rac2.wam.umd.edu [128.8.10.142]) by po4.wam.umd.edu (8.9.0.Beta6/8.9.0.Beta6) with ESMTP id TAA22998 for ; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 19:44:56 -0500 (EST) Received: from rac2.wam.umd.edu ((IDENT sendmail)@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by rac2.wam.umd.edu (8.9.0.Beta6/8.9.0.Beta6) with SMTP id TAA13135 for ; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 19:44:22 -0500 (EST) Received: from localhost by rac2.wam.umd.edu (8.9.0.Beta6/8.9.0.Beta6) with SMTP id TAA13130 for ; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 19:44:21 -0500 (EST) X-Authentication-Warning: rac2.wam.umd.edu: kee owned process doing -bs Date: Mon, 21 Dec 1998 19:44:21 -0500 (EST) From: Byoung-Kee Yi To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: [Q] WordPerfect 8.0 for Linux problem 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 Dear folks: I've installed the WordPerfect 8.0 for Linux from Corel.

I wanted to write a program which has the same effect as grep pattern | more so I wrote the program listed below. As it stands, it works perfectly every time. However, if I change the line which reads if (pid == 0) to read if (pid) it never works! The stdio for 'more' seems to get screwed up. Can anybody explain why it doesn't work? Also, to my amazement, if I leave the line which reads if (pid == 0) alone, but delete the line which reads close(fd[1]); that is the 3rd last line of main(), it also fails to work! Deleting the other "close(fd[n])" calls don't seem to make any difference. I'd be extremely grateful to anybody who can shed light on this. The program: ---------------------------------------------------------------- #include #include #define GREP "grep" #define MORE "more" void main(int, char **); static void error(char *); static void error (char *msg) { fprintf(stderr, "Error: %s\n", msg); exit(1); } void main (int argc, char **argv) { int fd[2]; pid_t pid; if (pipe(fd)) error("pipe() failed"); if ((pid=fork()) < 0) error("fork() failed"); if (pid == 0) { close(1); if (dup(fd[1]) != 1) error("dup(1) failed"); close(fd[0]); close(fd[1]); argv[0] = GREP; execvp(GREP, argv); error("execvp(" GREP ") failed"); } close(0); if (dup(fd[0]) != 0) error("dup(0) failed"); close(fd[0]); close(fd[1]); execlp(MORE, MORE, 0); error("execlp(" MORE ") failed"); } ---------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for any help.

I have recently installed FreeBSD 3.0 on my computer. I am trying to connect to the internet through a local ISP. I have a PnP modem and have modified the source using a FAQ found on the FreeBSD web server and the modem works correctly. I have printed the pages from the hand book for setting up a ppp connection and have followed it to the letter, as far as I can tell. When I type ppp from the shell I get ppp ON foo:. I can then type term and using ATDT dial into my ISP. After connecting it goes into packet mode and I can run ping in the background and hit my ISP. If I try to use the command ppp -auto provider I get an error saying Chat failed. I never hear the modem dial. I have tried to change the dial string but can not find anything that will work. Do you have any suggestions that I might try. Thanks, Tim Stinnett Flatpickin' Just DU IT!

You don't say what you were doing at the other end. Initially you need to get the other machine to go into ddb, for example by pressing ctrl-alt-esc, entering the command ``gdb'', and then single-stepping. If you don't do this, you will always get the messages you describe, whether or not you have a cable connected. If you're doing all this, it might be worth having a breakout box connected to see what's really going on. Looking at the cable I have connected on my setup, the debugged machine asserts RTS and DTR, the gdb machine asserts DCD and DSR and echos CTS for RTS.

You don't want crossover, since the modems do that for you. Just 1:1 wiring would be the best thing to try first. I know that SLIP is still in wide use in Russia, but I don't understand why. Can't you use PPP in this situation? The software is much better maintained.

Basically, I am not even sure if it is a problem to worry about. As I mentioned, I am running a FreeBSD stable box with gated 3.5.9 taking a full view, advertising a couple of /24s to my upstream. I have 2 border routers. Both are the same hardware. One is a 2.2.7 RELEASE box with an Etinc serial card. That one works quite well with no such messages as above. The other is an fxp only box running gated 3.5.9 with no other purpose in life. Since deploying it a few days ago, I have had my kern.* syslog fill with the above messages. I am not sure if it is something to worry about or not. The gated.conf file is fairly straightforward at this point and identical to the other border router's config, save for the AS and peer address differences of course. In short, a) I am not clear as to the meaning of the message b) Is it something to worry about c) if its not a bug, where should I look to find the cause of it. ---Mike ********************************************************************** Mike Tancsa, Network Admin * mike@sentex.net Sentex Communications Corp, * http://www.sentex.net/mike Cambridge, Ontario * 01.519.651.3400 Canada * To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 21 18:45:37 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA06270 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 18:45:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from guepardo.vicosa.com.br (guepardo.tdnet.com.br [200.236.148.6]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id SAA06262 for ; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 18:45:32 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from grios@netshell.vicosa.com.br) Received: from netshell.vicosa.com.br [200.236.148.193] by guepardo.vicosa.com.br with ESMTP (SMTPD32-4.03) id A9432BC0144; Mon, 21 Dec 1998 23:51:47 +03d00 Message-ID: <367F0754.12665B76@netshell.vicosa.com.br> Date: Tue, 22 Dec 1998 00:43:32 -0200 From: Gustavo Vieira G C Rios X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (Win95; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Eddie Lawhead CC: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: FreeBSD and C Programming References: <3.0.3.32.19981221173928.006dc528@silk.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG if you wanna be a real programmer you should know the hardware you are programming to, right ?

It seems that it would be a very convienent way to backup my HD. It works well for the Win95 partition. A Jaz disk is of a particularly convienent size in that its capacity is roughly about that of my FreeBSD partition, about 1 GB. However, I'm not exactly sure how to get multiple dumps on a Jaz disk. On a tape, you can tell the device not to rewind after the first two dumps and simply write them sequentially. A disk is more of a RAM device and something like that does not seem as intuitively obvious. How do I get multiple dumps on a single Jaz drive without having it clobber the previous dump? How could I use 'restore' to access them if I did? This is also of interest since it would be nice (almost a necesity, Jaz disks are not free) to keep incremental dumps on a single disk. How do people out there who use Jaz drives as backup devices do this? Thanks for any help. -- Crist J.

If I'd have read closely enough, I'd have seen: "In order to force a next trap immediately, simply type ``s'' (step). Your hosting GDB will now gain control over the target kernel" However, this follows on two paragraphs after the instructions about starting gdb on the "watching" machine, so it's natural for the novice to sit and watch the protocol initialization fail merrily. :) I think I can reorder that section of the handbook to provide better clarity. I'll speak again when I have something to contribute. Thanks very much for the quick response, I can't tell you how much time it's saved me. I only wish I'd mailed sooner. ;-) Ciao, Sheldon.

A quick look through the sendmail source shows: $ grep 452 *.c collect.c: usrerr("452 Out of disk space for temp file"); queue.c: syserr("!452 Error writing control file %s", tf); savemail.c: case 452: /* Req action not taken: insufficient sys storage */ srvrsmtp.c: usrerr("452 Insufficient disk space; try again later"); srvrsmtp.c: usrerr("452 Too many recipients"); usersmtp.c: if (r == 452) In other words, sendmail uses it to indicate some kind of resource problem. This system is running Netscape, so we can't look at the source sendmail, but also that either the file system is full (most likely) or that there was an I/O error writing the message to disk. I've just tried sending a message to the postmaster, and it was accepted, so you can assume that the problem has been solved. Probably your message has now been delivered.

It is useful to put an entry in /etc/fstab, just like the one for the CD, except the filesystem would be "msdos" not "cd9660". That way, you can type mount /floppy much the same way as mount /cdrom can be done now. ... Also, for msdos-filesystem stuff, the mtools package in the emulation/ section enables you to access a floppy drive without mounting, reducing the danger of accidentaly removing it without unmounting first :) -rob ( www.namodn.com ) ( robert@namodn.com ) On Mon, 21 Dec 1998, alissa bader wrote: > > um, how do I mount a floppy disk? > > I looked up stuff in the manual, and I typed > > mount -t msdos /dev/fd0c /floppy > > and I got the response > > mount: /floppy: no such file or directory > > I know the floppy drive is configured for the system, 'cause it shows up > on the startup when I reboot. > > second part of this question: how do I get to the file on the floppy > disk, after I mount it?

So are other things about your supfile: in particular, the tag doesn't exist (so you won't get anything), and you're asking for the repository (release=cvs).

You'll never get an answer to this question if you tack it on the end of another one. Try a separate message next time. But the answer is that `make world' doesn't change /etc. This can be a problem when things change in /etc/rc.conf, for example.

While native apps are desirable, I think that we should retain the perspective to leverage our Linux emulation as a backup strategy: if a company doesn't want to commit to a FreeBSD native version, we need to encourage them to confirm their app runs with the emulator (an example of what happens when this goes awry is StarOffice 5). Given that several people have observed better performance of Linux apps running on FreeBSD emulation, than on Linux on identical/same hardware, I don't see this as a major limitation, provided the app doesn't use facilities we can't or don't yet emulate. As an example for leveraging the emulation, although its a bit early yet for people to have fully exercised the new release, is WordPerfect with early indications that it works very well provided the linux library package is the most recent release. -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."

I tried doing this and rebooting. Now apparently my computer thinks there should be a bootable, mountable file on the floppy upon startup. Because I can't get my machine to go through the startup process. It goes down the list of devices and then simply hangs, and asks for the name of the complete shell.

If you're really new to C programming, you'll learn a *lot* just by doing this.

I'll let someone else tell you HOW to edit /etc/fstab, but I will say that maybe "ed" will work? Anyway, when you do get to your fstab, you want to specify the "noauto" option.

You don't need to reboot after any change.

If you copied the CD entry, /dev/wcd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 Like so, /dev/fd0c /floppy msdos ro,noauto 0 0 It should not actually try to mount the floppy, and you'd typically want to make a floppy read-write (rw) rather than read-only (ro). > Because I can't get my machine to go > through the startup process.

Changing fstab should not affect the kernel configuring itself, which it sounds like the problem you might be having. > How do I edit the /etc/fstab file when my machine won't let me login?

Hi Guys,

I have recently installed a FreeBSD firewall (Has a = Public=20 IP address), with
a mail server sitting behind it, linked through to = the=20 internet via a leased
line (router) sitting in Hong Kong. An user = connected=20 to these machines
(which have a private IP address) is trying to get=20 connected to the a server
(Has a Private IP address) located in China = via a=20 router connected to the
Hong Kong site belonging to the same=20 company.

I can ping to the router in China, but cannot get though = to the=20 China server
(Host unreacheable).

Does the router located in = China=20 need to be configured to accept this public
IP address (firewall) = before I=20 can get through to the China server?

I would appreciate any=20 help.

Thanks!

I have a FreeBSD workstation at my work running 2.2.5. This box is one that is hard to bring down except by loss of power or the reboot command. Today the box spontaneously rebooted twice. Both time I was running X and downloading with Netscape... Update the sources one would say... Mayhaps, were it not that the same thing happened to me under CURRENT last sunday: mouse froze up and all screen activity was stopped until it resetted also whilst running X, Netscape and doing disk access/downloading. Also, nothing logged in /var/log/messages so it's a female dog to trace... I might be wrong on this, but this seems too much for a coincedence. Especially since I have been able to do it again. We do have 3-5 other FreeBSD boxen here, so how do I set up some sort of serial console to check what's happening? Because I really want to see what's been causing this...

The code within the block if (pid == 0) { : : } dups the write side of the pipe onto stdout and then execs grep. The code following this block dups the read side of the pipe onto stdin and exec more. Therefore, grep is being piped into more.

The SCSI error you are getting is very basic -- all SCSI devices (besides CD-Rs) should support the TEST_UNIT_READY command, so it really looks like a hardware problem... I've attached a small C program that uses the FreeBSD SCSI ioctls to do a test unit ready command when run with no arguments. When I run it on my SCSI 2 CDRW drive (which works great with cdrecord) I get: # ./scsi bus0 target1 lun0 sending SCSI command 00 00 00 00 00 00 test unit ready: sense ASC=0 ASCQ=0 You might want to try it out to pursue this issue; it might be easier to debug than going through Schilling's generic scg driver code in cdrecord. You might need to change the device, which is hard-coded to be /dev/cd0c in main(). Finally, my probe looks like this, almost exactly like yours: ncr0 rev 18 int a irq 11 on pci0:11:0 ncr0 waiting for scsi devices to settle (ncr0:1:0): "RICOH MP6201S 2.03" type 5 removable SCSI 2 cd0(ncr0:1:0): CD-ROM cd present [203237 x 2048 byte records] Good luck, hope this is of some help.

Dunno if this is relevant, but I've got a box with 64MB RAM, and 1GB swap (I know, I know, but I did a bit of filesystem juggling recently and I couldn't be bothered to repart. so I just made it swap). I built inn from source, rather than the /usr/ports distribution. At the end of each news.daily I get Can't remalloc xx bytes, Cannot allocate memory I know this is expireover because I get the same message when I run expireover -s on its own once a week. I grabbed the inn-1.7.2 port and diff the config/config.data and my installed versions and there was no difference between my guesses about mmap and the ports decisions about mmap. The INN FAQs don't mention malloc and expireover together, and the only version of 'BSD mentioned is 2.1.6. Although one BSDish problem is supposedly solved if GNU malloc is linked to at compile time. Anyway, I have just bunged the following in the kernel, installed and rebooted. options "MAXDSIZ=(256*1024*1024)" options "DFLDSIZ=(64*1024*1024)" I haven't tested yet (I'll find out tomorrow when news.daily does its stuff). Dunno if this will nail it, as the remalloc errors are way smaller than the default max of 128MB per process. Has anyone else seen the above, and, more importantly, solved it? TIA, Adam.

The boxes work great (behind the firewall) when you are trying to access them from the internet side of the firewall but not at all from the private side. ie. boxes from the intranet can not call to the address a.b.c.xx2 and get anything. So from the world side all is well but on site behind the firewall things are not. Internet firewall address a.b.c.xxx/255.255.255.0 --------+----- mail address aliased a.b.c.xx1/255.255.255.255 | www address aliased a.b.c.xx2/255.255.255.255 | [ed1] Outside Interface (oif) a.b.c.xxx,a.b.c.xx1,a.b.c.xx2 (Firewall FreeBSD-2.2.8) [xl0] Inside Interface (iif) 172.16.255.254 default gateway | | --------+----- Intranet 172.16.0.0/255.255.0.0 This is what I have for the redirection that works from Internet side of firewall. # mail address aliased a.b.c.xx1/255.255.255.255 from outside world rdr ed1 a.b.c.xx1/32 port smtp -> 172.16.0.3 port smtp rdr ed1 a.b.c.xx1/32 port pop3 -> 172.16.0.3 port pop3 # redirect http rdr ed1 a.b.c.xx2/32 port http -> 172.16.0.3 port http # redirect ftp rdr ed1 a.b.c.xx2/32 port ftp -> 172.16.0.3 port ftp I have tried things like rdr xl0 a.b.c.xx1/32 port (service) -> 172.16.0.3 port (service) rdr xl0 a.b.c.xx2/32 port (service) -> 172.16.0.3 port (service) with no luck:( I am not even sure if I need the stuff for xl0 but I am unsure at this point.

I use NT's boot mangler because you can add FreeBSD to it's menu, which is detailed in the FAQ but basically you just dd(1) the first 512 bytes of the FreeBSD slice into a file on C:\ (call it BOOTSECT.BSD for example), then edit C:\BOOT.INI and make an entry for FreeBSD based on the DOS entry. If you want to use booteasy you'll have 2 boot menus to go through to start NT. It would probably be a good idea to have C:\ as a small FAT partition rather than NTFS if you're only putting NT & FreeBSD on. This will give you a partition that both OS's can access HTH > Thanks. > > -- > Stan Brown stanb@netcom.com 770-996-6955 > Factory Automation Systems > Atlanta Ga. > -- > Windows 98: n. > minor patch release for 32-bit extensions and a graphical shell for a > 16-bit patch to an 8-bit operating system originally coded for a 4-bit > microprocessor, written by a 2-bit company that can't stand for 1 bit > of competition. > - > (c) 1998 Stan Brown.

I am trying to set up a new machine through ftp. I am using a dependable 3Com 3c509 card. I have tried passive and active ftp. We do have a firewall, so I lean toward the passive. I turn debug on and ALT/F2 to see what is going on. DNS is working. I can ping the machine at this point from other ip clients. From the ALT/F2 screen I see it is getting to the login line and then just sits there until I get a 'service not available, closing control connection 100%' message. Any ideas. I set the same machine up with the identical parts just a month ago and had no problem. I went into the options area and gave ftp my e-mail name. I can ftp with no problem to ftp.bsd.org on a dos workstation using the same hub. I just want it to work. * * John Garrett JCSD Technology Support To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 22 08:42:03 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA14143 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 08:42:03 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns.insolwwb.net (ns.insolwwb.net [206.31.149.200]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA14138 for ; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 08:42:02 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mgrommet@insolwwb.net) Received: from mikeg (work2.insolwwb.net [208.150.248.12]) by ns.insolwwb.net (8.9.0/8.9.0) with SMTP id KAA23371 for ; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 10:39:21 -0600 (CST) From: mike grommet Reply-To: To: Subject: CERT Advisory CA-98-13 Date: Tue, 22 Dec 1998 10:42:48 -0600 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook 8.5, Build 4.71.2173.0 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Importance: Normal Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Trying to patch a FreeBSD 3.0 - Release from 10/27 but, the patch given in the CERT advisory looks very very strange... ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/patches/CA-98-13/patch heck this stuff doesnt even look like valid C code at all if ((m =3D m_pullup(m, sizeof (struct ip))) =3D=3D 0) I thought it might be a funky browswer problem, so I used lynx to grab the patch, and ended up with the same text...

One for your MS system, one for FreeBSD. Everything that FreeBSD uses will be inside of its ``partition''. I put the word in quotes, because partition has a different meaning in the UNIX world. I recommend making the first ``partition'' your MS system. Also, install it first, as some MS installs think they own the machine and are quite happy to walk all over other OSs.

We quickly noticed how the users could rename (i.e. mv) the file around though, and 'ye olde readme.txt started ending up as '.rhosts' + others very rapidly (fortunately they couldn't change it's contents)... Thus going to prove, the mere user (because they owned the directory - which is after all only a file), could manipulate the file 'owned' by root... I seem to remember they might even have been able to delete it... They could certainly rename it at will... We now supply the same readme, but with the ownership set to the user... ;-) -Kp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 22 09:07:37 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA17831 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 09:07:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from tesla.i-pi.com (tesla.i-pi.com [198.49.217.4]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA17823 for ; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 09:07:33 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ingham@tesla.i-pi.com) Received: (from ingham@localhost) by tesla.i-pi.com (8.9.1/8.9.1) id KAA08653; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 10:06:52 -0700 (MST) Message-ID: <19981222100651.25870@i-pi.com> Date: Tue, 22 Dec 1998 10:06:51 -0700 From: Kenneth Ingham To: Yusuf Goolamabbas Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Which RAID controller for FreeBSD References: <19981222060902.6946.qmail@yusufg.portal2.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.84e In-Reply-To: <19981222060902.6946.qmail@yusufg.portal2.com>; from Yusuf Goolamabbas on Tue, Dec 22, 1998 at 06:09:02AM -0000 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Tue, Dec 22, 1998 at 06:09:02AM -0000, Yusuf Goolamabbas wrote: > Is there something similar to Linux software raid for > FreeBSD.

Second, verify your backups are good. Third, boot the 2.2.8 floppy or CD and choose the upgrade option. I have upgraded many machines to various versions of FreeBSD, all successfully. I just received my 2.2.8 CDs, so I'll be trying it in the next week. I have no reason to assume it will not be successful (but I'll do backups anyway...).

The mv command can be used to rename the passwd file if the user has write and execute privileges on the containing directory. The user does *not* require read or write privileges on the file. The mv command preserves the ownership, permissions, access times, etc. of the original file to the extent possible. That's why the passwd.old file is still owned by root. There is one complication with mv in this respect (see man mv) - as a rename(2) cannot be made across filesystems, mv is performed in this case using cp(1). So even if the source and destination directories have appropriate permissions, the mv will fail without read permission on the source file for a move across file systems. And even though with read permission, the copy can proceed, the original ownership may not be preserved. As a UNIX newbie, I must say even this simple command (mv) has so many subtleties to it, which I've been slowly discovering in playing with this, that I'm wondering if I'll ever really understand what I'm doing! > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Crist J.

I've had no problems whatsoever using this drive for the past few weeks. The server also has an AHA-2940 controller, and we just attached a second (identical) Archive Python DAT drive to the 2940. When the server reboots we see both SCSI adapters being probed and both tape drives are properly identified. The drive on the 7880 is assigned st0 and the one on the 2940 is assigned st1. However, when I log in and try to do anything with st1 I'm unable to access the device. There are no references to st1 in /dev, and nothing I've tried to get it to show up has worked. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Hopefully I'm missing something simple. (I definately do NOT claim to be a SCSI/BSD expert so please bear with me if the answer is painfully obvious!) -Bruce ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 22 11:18:18 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA05871 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 11:18:18 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from gershwin.tera.com ([207.224.230.28]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA05782 for ; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 11:18:00 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kline@tera.com) Received: from athena.tera.com (athena.tera.com [207.224.230.169]) by gershwin.tera.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA07121; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 11:17:54 -0800 (PST) From: Gary Kline Received: (from kline@localhost) by athena.tera.com (8.7.5/8.7.3) id LAA09797; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 11:17:41 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <199812221917.LAA09797@athena.tera.com> Subject: Re: How do you get paid In-Reply-To: <4.1.19981222103227.00a08930@mail.netpacq.com> from Paul at "Dec 22, 98 10:33:11 am" To: paul@netpacq.com (Paul) Date: Tue, 22 Dec 1998 11:17:37 -0800 (PST) Cc: des@flood.ping.uio.no, wcook@gapartners.com, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL23 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG According to Paul: > > At 07:19 PM 12/22/98 +0100, Dag-Erling Smorgrav wrote: > >Will Cook writes: > >> If BSD is free, how do you get paid? > > > >Most of us don't. > > > >DES > > Is it just a hobby for you? > I cannot answer for DES, specifically, but I'd say that those of us who contribute to the Project do it for considerably deeper reasons that ``a hobby.''

Make sure that you've used the EISA Configuration Utility (ECU) for the machine to define the ISA card in the appropriate slot. Use the 3Com utilities to make the card match the ECU settings. I seem to recall a recommendation to use whatever card setting went with "9600baud modem" - not having one of these cards I can't be more specific than to suggest searching the mailing list archives for this. The xl driver is for the 3C90x family of cards. -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."

I respectfully disagree. Consider, for example, that Donald Knuth's "The Art of Computer Programming" uses an reference machine that doesn't really exist (though I'm sure folks have written emulators for it... after he wrote the book(s)). Best suggestion I have is to find a problem that you need to solve, and for which a (set of) program(s) written in C might reasonably be considered a viable approach to solving it. Look at good code as a starting-point; try /usr/src/*, for example. Often, I've found that starting by figuring out how to make a least-intrusive change to an existing program can be quite instructive. (Then again, sometimes what the program really *needs* is to be gutted & re-constructed from the ground up. Experience can help you distinguish the two cases.) Start small; build on that. Revise your building-blocks until they're reliable. Caveat: I don't write code for a living (usually); I do sysadmin work. I have written code for a living, though, and have been known to do so somewhat recently. david -- David Wolfskill UNIX System Administrator dhw@whistle.com voice: (650) 577-7158 pager: (650) 371-4621 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 22 11:37:16 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA14324 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 11:37:16 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from law-f92.hotmail.com (law-f92.hotmail.com [209.185.131.155]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA14242 for ; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 11:37:05 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bpennypacker@hotmail.com) Received: (from root@localhost) by law-f92.hotmail.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA19692 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 11:36:55 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bpennypacker@hotmail.com) Message-Id: <199812221936.LAA19692@law-f92.hotmail.com> Received: from 146.115.5.155 by www.hotmail.com with HTTP; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 11:36:55 PST X-Originating-IP: [146.115.5.155] From: "Bruce Pennypacker" To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Second SCSI tape drive not seen Date: Tue, 22 Dec 1998 11:36:55 PST Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi all, We have a new Dell server that came with an on-board Adaptec AHA-7880 SCSI controler and an Archive Python DAT drive, and we've installed FreeBSD 2.2.7 on this machine. I've had no problems whatsoever using this drive for the past few weeks. The server also has an AHA-2940 controller, and we just attached a second (identical) Archive Python DAT drive to the 2940. When the server reboots we see both SCSI adapters being probed and both tape drives are properly identified. The drive on the 7880 is assigned st0 and the one on the 2940 is assigned st1. However, when I log in and try to do anything with st1 I'm unable to access the device. There are no references to st1 in /dev, and nothing I've tried to get it to show up has worked. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Hopefully I'm missing something simple.

Its not there. I understand that the intent is that it will be a temporary option, and that the patches will be included unconditionally if testing goes well. Also, you need the option outside as well as inside the kernel, so, as now listed at http://lt.tar.com, you should add -DCOMPAT_LINUX_THREADS to the CFLAGS and COPTFLAGS in your /etc/make.conf and do a "make world" as well as rebuild your kernel. -- Richard Seamman, Jr. email: dick@tar.com 5182 N.

We do have a firewall, so I lean toward the passive. I turn debug on and ALT/F2 to see what is going on. DNS is working. I can ping the machine at this point from other ip clients. From the ALT/F2 screen I see it is getting to the login line and then just sits there until I get a 'service not available, closing control connection 100%' message. Any ideas. I set the same machine up with the identical parts just a month ago and had no problem. I went into the options area and gave ftp my e-mail name. I can ftp with no problem to ftp.bsd.org on a dos workstation using the same hub. I just want it to work. * * John Garrett JCSD Technology Support To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 22 13:03:43 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA29736 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 13:03:43 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from elemental.alchemy.com (elemental.alchemy.com [206.58.126.23]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA29614 for ; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 13:03:28 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from steve@alchemy.com) Received: from elemental.alchemy.com (elemental.alchemy.com [206.58.126.23]) by elemental.alchemy.com (8.9.1/8.9.1) with SMTP id NAA08859; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 13:02:01 -0800 (PST) Date: Tue, 22 Dec 1998 13:02:00 -0800 (PST) From: Steve Willoughby To: Andrew MacIntyre cc: "Douglas C.

I just It's going to be an uphill battle, I'm afraid. Although we're not a Microsoft-sized software vendor :), we believe we're doing the right thing by our corporate commitment to make all our products available for Linux, FreeBSD, and Solaris as well as Windows 95/98/NT. We certainly hope more companies will see a benefit to doing this as well. Porting to other platforms *is* a manageable task, if you start out writing your code with that goal in mind. Legacy Windows code may not be so easy, but one can have some hope for the future... Steve Willoughby Software Alchemy, Inc.

Last night I upgraded to 2.2.8 from 2.2.7 and I rebooted and things were still fine. I rebooted one more time a while later because I wanted to make sure the startup script for ssh would work as expected but this time I couldn't log in anymore. What happens is that I can telnet/ssh/rlogin just fine to the computer but in csh.login there is a line that starts up zwgc, which is a part of zephyr. When it tries to start it up zwgc returns with zwgc: Operation timed out while setting location and then the login process just sits there. Is there anyway to choose a login shell other than csh? Or to kill zwgc as I log in. I tried to simplely control-C and it doesn't do a thing. I also don't have access to the console because the guy who runs the lab its in have left the university for the holidays and locked the door. thanks, michael To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 22 14:13:22 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA16584 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 14:13:22 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from larry.unet.tm (cx62616-a.cv1.sdca.home.com [24.0.158.12]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA16537 for ; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 14:13:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from erinf@larry.unet.tm) Received: from localhost (erinf@localhost) by larry.unet.tm (8.9.1/8.9.1) with SMTP id OAA00389; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 14:19:42 -0800 (PST) Date: Tue, 22 Dec 1998 14:19:42 -0800 (PST) From: Erin Fortenberry To: Will Cook cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: How do you get paid In-Reply-To: <367FD9E4.2544@gapartners.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG who?

But now I am perplexed as I know very little about tcpip, I know even less about IPX or any other network protocol for that matter. I would like the 95 boxes that dial in to my machine, to be able to see the other 95 boxes on my local LAN and be able to use shared fax machines printers and all the other fun stuff in the office. I read all I could find on the freebsd.org web pages and assuming the following statements are correct, will you let me know what options I have to achieve the above mentioned. Now I don't want IPX or anything but the tcp/ip packets to get out of the office on our dial up connection. So I think that successfuly eliminates enabling IPX in the kernel, so now I'm down to pppd. pppd states in the man page for some reason that IPX works in the Linux version but (Ha Ha) not in yours. I also read somewhere that netcon.com might offer a solution but I couldn't get to thier pages as of this writing. Any sudgestions on reading material or other sources that might help me solve my problem would be greatly apreciated, just a point in the right direction. One other question, after toiling the morning away getting dial in to work I decided that the dialin user would just have pppd as it's shell, is this a bad idea security wise? --- Jared --jared@vt.edu BTW: I know I can't spell, but that's why we have spell checkers!

I am on an ethernet network and the suggested rate (according to such experts as webopedia.internet.com) is 1500 byte blocks. In the option area the default is 20 512k sized blocks (or 10240byte blocks). I necked it down to 3 512k blocks.

In which IRC > server? From the FAQ: 1.14. Are there FreeBSD IRC (Internet Relay Chat) channels? Yes, most major IRC networks host a FreeBSD chat channel: * Channel #FreeBSD on EFNet provides technical discussions on FreeBSD and often advanced solutions involving it. Questions that are more then adequately addressed in the FAQ and Handbook are heavily discouraged. Available at server irc.chat.org. * Channel #FreeBSD on DALNET is available at irc.dal.net in the US and irc.eu.dal.net in Europe. * Channel #FreeBSD on UNDERNET is available at us.undernet.org in the US and eu.undernet.org in Europe. * Finally, you can also join #FreeBSD on BSDNET, a smaller BSD only chat network, at irc.FreeBSD.org. Each of these channels are distinct and are not connected to each other. Their chat styles also differ, so you may need to try each to find one suited to your chat style. -- Ben Smithurst ben@scientia.demon.co.uk send a blank message to ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk for PGP key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 22 16:33:02 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA25135 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 16:33:02 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from post.mail.demon.net (post-11.mail.demon.net [194.217.242.40]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA25130 for ; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 16:32:59 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from marko@uk.radan.com) Received: from [158.152.75.22] (helo=uk.radan.com) by post.mail.demon.net with smtp (Exim 2.10 #2) id 0zscEO-0001TD-00; Wed, 23 Dec 1998 00:32:53 +0000 Organisation: Radan Computational Ltd., Bath, UK.

As ``='' has a special meaning any ``='' in the text gets represented as ``=3D'', 0x3D is the ASCII value of ``=''.

While dmesg says the tape drive was detected you can't get to it until there is a device "file" created for it, typically in /dev.

I think they are un-necessary. You're saying to expect nothing twice, so if the login prompt arrives that could be causing the message. The man page, Handbook, and ppp.conf.sample all show ``TIMEOUT 10 gin:--gin:''. Try that instead. Actually, are you sure that your ISP doesn't use CHAP/PAP?? In which case you need ``set authname'' and ``set authkey'' rather than ``set login''. > set timeout 300 > set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 > add default HISADDR > enable DNS -- Trust the computer industry to shorten Year 2000 to Y2K.

In Win98, this a utility to do this comes with the system. This will take a while, start it and go do something else for an hour. 2) No need to pay for a partition resizer. You are going to use this once or twice, and plenty of Freeware apps are available. Personally, I used 'Partition Resizer' by John Lagonikas... Ready for a lo-ong URL? http://softseek.mdonline.net/Utilities/Diskette_CD_ROM_and_Hard_Disk/Review_17760_index.html It's a simple DOS interface, but remember: Simple good. I just noticed, as of 12/20 that's a new version he has out too. In the resizer all you need to do is shrink your DOS (Win98 FAT32) partition down to whatever size you want to make it. 3) All the rest is done in the FreeBSD setup. Make yourself a boot floppy and go to town. If you do not touch the exisiting DOS partition at all, you will not hurt your Win98 partition. Make a new *BSD partition in the space you freed in the previous step. Slices will then be made in this partition, but the slicing is all done in the UFS partition and should not effect in anyway, the Win98 stuff. I guess that's about as detailed as I can get off the top of my head. HTH. -- Crist J.

Yes, it's a ``funky brows[w]er problem''. It converted the patch into quoted-printable. The simple answer is: use the correct tools. The correct tool is called ftp. Here's the patch. I would really not recommend using it, since your browser may break that too.

The code is: /* * decrement the reference count by one and if it reaches 0, * and there is a close function defined, call the close function */ rt->rt_refcnt--; if(rnh->rnh_close && rt->rt_refcnt == 0) { rnh->rnh_close((struct radix_node *)rt, rnh); } /* * If we are no longer "up" (and ref == 0) * then we can free the resources associated * with the route. */ if (rt->rt_refcnt <= 0 && (rt->rt_flags & RTF_UP) == 0) { if (rt->rt_nodes->rn_flags & (RNF_ACTIVE | RNF_ROOT)) panic ("rtfree 2"); /* * the rtentry must have been removed from the routing table * so it is represented in rttrash.. remove that now. */ rttrash--; #ifdef DIAGNOSTIC if (rt->rt_refcnt < 0) { printf("rtfree: %p not freed (neg refs)\n", rt); return; } #endif Somehow the reference count is going negative. It would be nice to find out how that happens, but it's probably not dangerous as long as you're not ending up with conflicting routes in the routing table. The message could be more specific. For example, it could print the value of rt->rt_refcnt. If it's a small negative number, it might indicate a housekeeping problem. If it's a large negative number, it could represent corruption. > b) Is it something to worry about Are you having any problems? It's probably worthwhile looking at your routing table and deciding whether it makes sense or not. > c) if its not a bug, where should I look to find the cause of it. Well, it's definitely a bug, the only question is, how serious is it? I can't make up my mind whether it's a gated bug, a kernel networking bug or just possibly an error in the information you're getting. About the best thing you can do here is to put in a PR, but there's a good chance it won't get looked at in a hurry unless it's causing you lots of trouble.

Thanks for the detailed and very informative response. I have since rebuilt world, remade gated, and the problem has not resurfaced in 18hrs, so this is a good sign. Is it possible the cisco 4700 I am getting the view from is sending the routes faster than the box could handle ? Its a PII-300? However even when the table was converging, the load average was pretty minimal... 5-10% tops. There is nothing else running on it, and the unit has 128M RAM. ---Mike ********************************************************************** Mike Tancsa, Network Admin * mike@sentex.net Sentex Communications Corp, * http://www.sentex.net/mike Cambridge, Ontario * 01.519.651.3400 Canada * To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 22 19:21:47 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA15360 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 19:21:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from 4x.quadraplex.com (rush.netxn.com [209.135.13.200]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA15287 for ; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 19:21:01 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from morrigu@quadraplex.com) Received: from morrigu ([192.168.0.10]) by 4x.quadraplex.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id TAA00720 for ; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 19:22:52 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from morrigu@quadraplex.com) From: "Morrigu" To: Subject: Modem Upgrade Help Date: Tue, 22 Dec 1998 19:22:39 -0800 Message-ID: <000001be2e23$7eb2e960$0a00a8c0@morrigu.quadraplex.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook 8.5, Build 4.71.2173.0 Importance: Normal X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.2106.4 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG My ISP recently upgraded their chassises to V.90 for US Robotics users, and now my older X2 modem refuses to connect.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In a DOS FAT file system, deleting a file means replacing the first character of its directory entry, and presumably clearing some bits in the file allocation table. So if you want to permanently delete sensitive files, you should first overwrite them (more than once) with various suitable patterns. If you wanted such a permanent file deletion utility for ufs, would it be as simple as writing these patterns, flushing buffered output between iterations, before unlinking the file? Or would some other aspect of the operating system, for example the virtual memory system, complicate matters? I cant seem to find this functionality anywhere, but would like to know if writing such a utility would require knowledge much beyond "Hello, world" (my speed); ie whether it's pointless for me, since I really don't have much opportunity to do extensive reading on gdb, much less the workings of the kernel, file system, etc. Thanks in advance -- Alex Ling, MD To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 22 19:29:08 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA16171 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 19:29:08 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from dub-img-10.compuserve.com (dub-img-10.compuserve.com [149.174.206.140]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA16166 for ; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 19:29:06 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from 70673.3111@compuserve.com) Received: (from root@localhost) by dub-img-10.compuserve.com (8.8.6/8.8.6/2.17) id WAA07571 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 22:29:01 -0500 (EST) Date: Tue, 22 Dec 1998 22:26:55 -0500 From: Jeffrey Vehrs <70673.3111@compuserve.com> Subject: Game: DOOM couldn't run To: Blind.Copy.Receiver@compuserve.com Message-ID: <199812222228_MC2-6488-F776@compuserve.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I could NOT get the DOOM to run on 2.2.8-stable box w/ BlackBox 0.50.x.

Lots of things are possible. I wouldn't even like to hazard a guess without more examination. Since it has apparently gone away, I wouldn't worry too much more.

I posted a similar question last week, to no avail. I too am getting the very same kernel messages, however, If it helps, I'm -not- running GateD. The system runs FreeBSD 2.2.8-RELEASE, IPFW with Dummynet, and Squid-2.1-RELEASE... at the start I suspected that squid was the culprit. Also, the box appears to be dirtly rebooting itself every few days. The (neg refs) messages are the only ones left in /var/log/messages. Could this be a contributing factor?

This is not completely necessary, but probably a good idea. What does disklabel -r ccd0 tell you?

An HP tech support person has suggested to me a weekly cleaning with an approved HP cleaning tape, something most people don't seem to do. :) Of course, there is still the fact that tape drives still seem unreliable. For the price of some of the high-end Exobyte tapes, I'd probally build a second machine to backup too. Even if you're low on money, a 2nd hard drive will still be a good investment.

I guess that makes USR "the coolest modem company". Their newer Couriers can use xmodem to flash. Just fire up minicom, issue the AT commands described in the README, and start an xmodem upload of the new code.

Apache is touted as the most popular web server on the internet and can run CGI scripts. The latest version of Apache is also available for Win32 although it is not as stable as the Unix version (or so I here).

It contains following components: Logitec System Mouse, 4X CD-ROM (IDE), US Robotics V.34 Sportster Data/Fax Modem (28.8), Creative Labs AWE32 Wavetable Soundcard, #9 Tri Graphics Accelerator PCI (2MB DRAM), 1 GB EIDE hard drive, 6.4 GB EIDE hard drive. When I tried to install FreeBSD 2.2.6 to my computer, I failed. The procedure I used is: a. Boot from CD-ROM. b. In the Kernel Configuration Menu, select Start kernel configuration in Visual Mode. c. Delete those devices my computer does not have ( but I do not know how I can add the information about Soundcard). d. Save changes and continue. After probing floppy, serial ports and hard drive etc. successfully, the system was locked up. Only the message "Probing devices, please wait ... " was displayed on the screen with blue background and never exited from such a state. Could somebody show me what is wrong with my installation and what I should do to solve installation problem. Thank you very much for your help.

Is anyone familiar with the HP T4 internal "Surestore" drives? Are they supported in BSD (no mention in the handbook, but then...)? Chances are, I'll probably have to settle for one of those since they are about all I can afford (the only thing better I"ve seen is the Exabyte 8700LT 8mm external, and I don't like it precisely *because* it's external and it looks more like a Sony Walkman than a tape drive). if nothing else, I may be able to get my hands on two internal exabyte 8mm drives off our old AS/400 at work, but they are *quite* used, and I'd have a hard time relying on them... especially considering they've been serviced more times than I can count... -- drwho @ xnet.com, BOFH -- http://www.xnet.com/~drwho/ V xabj jub lbh ner.

You can install the Apache web server (which runs, if I recall correctly, 51-52% of all Internet-visible web servers world-wide), configure it for CGIs, and run that on the FreeBSD box. If you're setting someting like this up, I'd recommend editing the /etc/hosts file in order to add a virtual DNS name to the box. It will probably make things easier. Mine was "pandora.my.domain" for about a year. It worked fine and, since this machine was resolving DNS for my LAN, I could telnet to pandora.my.domain, browse HTML files, test CGIs, etc. Jaime To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 22 23:11:13 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id XAA08130 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 23:11:13 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail1.uct.ac.za (mail1.uct.ac.za [137.158.128.73]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id XAA08118 for ; Tue, 22 Dec 1998 23:10:55 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from BTOBLER@its.uct.ac.za) Received: from mort by mail1.uct.ac.za with local (Exim 2.01 #3) for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org id 0zsiRS-0000FE-00; Wed, 23 Dec 1998 09:10:46 +0200 Received: by mail1.uct.ac.za (Mort 2.23alpha) id 461 from BTOBLER@ITS; Wed Dec 23 09:10:46 1998 From: "Ben Tobler" To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Wed, 23 Dec 1998 09:08:29 SAST-2 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Subject: Problem compiling kernel.

I just verified this by pulling up a Hotmail account's inbox. Out stoplist line reads: hierarchy_stoplist cgi-bin ? The comments in the default /usr/local/etc/squid/squid.conf show that this command only effects whether this instance of Squid will pull from the cache of another instance or if it will pull the web page directly, in and of itself. On a hunch, I think that what you want is for Hotmail's web pages to not cache, in order to preserve privacy. If that's the case, Squid 1.1's configuration file shows: # TAG: cache_stoplist # A list of words which, if found in a URL, cause the object to # immediately removed from the cache. In other words, use this # to force certain objects to never be cached. You may list this # option multiple times. # # The default is to not cache URLs containing 'cgi-bin' or '?'. # cache_stoplist cgi-bin ? ...and Squid 2.0's configuration file shows: # TAG: no_cache # A list of ACL elements which, if matched, cause the reply to # immediately removed from the cache. In other words, use this # to force certain objects to never be cached. # # You must use the word 'DENY' to indicate the ACL names which should # NOT be cached. # # There is no default. We recommend you uncomment the following # two lines. # #acl QUERY urlpath_regex cgi-bin \? #no_cache deny QUERY I'm fairly sure that the first command (cache_stoplist) will help you and the second (no_cache) is only for 2.0. Good luck. Either way, this advise is based on the idea that you're simply trying to prevent caching of Hotmail pages. FWIW, Hotmail uses a timeout system, so doing this isn't necessary unless people are allowed to log onto the FreeBSD box.

If it still hangs up at this point, press Alt-F2, which should display the ``behind the scenes'' information. The last few lines should be interesting. At this point, you could also try removing your modem and sound board and see if it continues like that (don't worry, you'll be able to replace them, but it helps us to figure out what's going on). > P.S.: following is the detailed information about my computer: > >>>> Logging System Resources > > Function: Serial Port > not disabled, not locked, no config error > I/O port: (3F8h-3FFh) > Interrupt: 4(sh) > > Function: Serial Port > not disabled, not locked, no config error > I/O port: (3E8h-3EFh) > Interrupt: 4(sh) You'll have to find a different interrupt for your second serial port.

I have a big problem with my 2.2.7 box. After installing mysql-3.22.13 and running sql benchmark test on database placed on ccd stripped disk, the following messages periodically appeared on console /kernel freeinode /db/23044 had 16 block /kernel freeinode /db/23044 had 32 block /kernel freeinode /db/23044 had 16 block .... Whad does it mean? Since 30-40 min system was panic: dev=0x1501 block=3080 fs=/db panic: blkfree: freing free block But, if I run sql benchmark on usual (non ccd) disk, all was fine. Does it make sense migrate from ccd to vinum? or bug not in ccd ? The configuration of my box follows: Copyright (c) 1992-1998 FreeBSD Inc.

However, on system boot after install, it gets to the point where it says "Doing initial network setup: hostname" and freezes and stays right there. I assume I gave ifconfig some goofy arguments during install by ftp, but I'm wondering whether anyone can help me around this?

When programming in NT, I use Visual Studio 6 (straight C for server stuff, C++/MFC for GUI stuff). When programming in FreeBSD, I use micro-emacs (not Gnu-Emacs), gcc, gmake, and the Gnu debugger. I find I can be about as productive in either environment. Use of command line tools makes it easy to do work over telnet - really don't like X/Motif, etc. But then I'm a bit of a dinosaur - I graduated in 1973, and cut my teeth on CDC mainframes. In the days before word processors, if you were a writer, the specific typewriter you used didn't make a lot of difference in the quality or quantity of your writing - most of the writing takes place in the mind. The same is true of programming tools. A really nice IDE can improve your productivity to some extent, but it will not make a hack into a great programmer. -----Original Message----- From: Andrey M.

You have a 3Com Etherlink 3c900, 3c905 or 3c980 card which was previously supported in PIO mode by the vx0 driver. These cards are now supported in DMA mode by Bill Paul's xl0 driver. If you change every occurrence of vx0 to xl0 in your configuration (/etc/rc.conf or /etc/rc.conf.local, and your kernel config if you have a custom kernel), you'll be fine. You did read the release notes before you upgraded, didn't you? ;) DES -- Dag-Erling Smorgrav - des@flood.ping.uio.no To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 23 07:58:25 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id HAA02647 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 23 Dec 1998 07:58:25 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ccsales.com (ccsales.com [216.0.22.30]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id HAA02637 for ; Wed, 23 Dec 1998 07:58:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from randyk@ccsales.com) Received: from ntrkcasa (pool96.hiper.net [216.0.22.96]) by ccsales.com (8.9.1/8.9.0) with SMTP id HAA02775 for ; Wed, 23 Dec 1998 07:58:36 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <3.0.5.32.19981223075738.03278a30@ccsales.com> X-Sender: randyk@ccsales.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0.5 (32) Date: Wed, 23 Dec 1998 07:57:38 -0800 To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: "Randy A.

From what I gather from the manpages, the first step is to label the disk. The 'disklabel' manpage says, For a virgin disk that is not known to disktab(5), disktype can be spec- ified as ``auto''. In this case, the driver is requested to produce a virgin label for the disk. This might or might not be successful, de- pending on whether the driver for the disk is able to get the required data without reading anything from the disk at all. It will likely suc- ceed for all SCSI disks, most IDE disks, and vnode devices. Writing a label to the disk is the only supported operation, and the disk itself must be provided as the canonical name, i.e. not as a full path name. Since my Jaz drive is a SCSI device, I try the following command and get the response below it, # disklabel -r sd0s4 auto disklabel: ioctl DIOCGDINFO: Invalid argument But the following pops up on the console, sd0(ahc0:4:0): UNIT ATTENTION asc:28,0 sd0(ahc0:4:0): Not ready to ready transition, medium may have changed sd0(ahc0:4:0): ILLEGAL REQUEST asc:24,0 Invalid field in CDB sd0 could not mode sense (4). Using fictitious geometry What am I doing incorrectly? The manpage says it should 'likely' succeed. Is this one of those other cases? Does anyone have a disktab entry for a Jaz drive in that case?

The installation is trying to look up the IP address of the FTP server, and is apparently failing. You probably misconfigured your network connection. What kind of connection do you have? Are you installing over a dialup connection, or are you in a LAN that is somehow connected to the Internet?

The script has been closed in the editing application (home site). When i log into the unix box and copy the script to another filename, delete the original, and then mv the file back to it's original name and location and try to execute it again via apache, it works. However, if i execute it from the command line, it works whether i go through the copy procedure or not.

I've never run into this before doing a cvsup. I don't know anything about this particular problem (I don't use vx), but here are some thoughts: Check whether driver for vx has been changed since 2.2.7. Check the corresponding sources (/sys/dev/vx/* /sys/pci/if_vx_pci.c /sys/i386/eisa/if_vx_eisa.c). If there are the differences, try to revert back to 2.2.7, rebuild the kernel and reboot. If you'll get your card working consider to send a problem report.

Yes, it's buggy, but that's not the bug. The only known problem with the ep0 driver is a bug that causes the system to think it has run out of mbufs. If you can't get it to work at all, it's probably a hardware problem. In my experience, 3c509s are flaky no matter what OS you run. If you need a cheap 10 Mbps Ethernet adapter, I'd strongly recommend an SMC-based card, e.g. the Kingston EtherX ($30 in Norway) which not only has a bug-free driver (ed0), but is a lot faster than the 3c509. It's also a PnP card, which makes configuration a lot easier.

You are. Most UNIX programmers use simple tools like make(1), vi(1) and gdb(1). That is the basic toolset, and skills you get from these can take you to any UNIX system. -- Jonathan Chen ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Experience is a hard teacher because she gives the test first, the lesson afterwards To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 23 12:23:37 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA03282 for freebsd-questions-outgoing;

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'd like to know how can I "tell" my fbsd box to get a dynamic IP address from the DHCP server on the net? I've already installed wide-dhcp-1.4.0p1 from the package stable. I've added "pseudo-device bpfilter 4" to the kernel and created /dev/bpf[0-3]. Then, I added 3 IP addresses of DHCP server in /etc/resolv.conf ==> xx.xx.xx.xx. Should I added "nameserver" to ip address? My goal is to have fbsd box as my "workstation" on the Novell net. I know there is no Novell client out there for fbsd. :-( I wish there is fbsd user group in Chicago area. So, I can speed up my learning curve!! Geez. Thanks for your help.

Yep! But you can use xxgdb & xemacs .... There are a few beta-versions of Visual IDE-s , but they are very unstable now ... If you want to try - there are gIDE, XWPE - the best one , but slightly ugly :), QTEZ .. Try also to use latest version of mc as editor (it supperts highlithing), and gdb, gcc , make from command line IMHO it's a best combination .. also increase number of consoles (ttyv*) in /etc/ttys ... sometimes you will need many screens to look at you code :) > That is the basic toolset, and skills you get from these can take you > to any UNIX system. > -- > Jonathan Chen > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > Experience is a hard teacher > because she gives the test first, the lesson afterwards > > 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 Dec 23 13:05:48 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA08103 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 23 Dec 1998 13:05:48 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from runner.jjsoft.com (jahanur.intur.net [206.97.149.64]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA08093 for ; Wed, 23 Dec 1998 13:05:42 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jahanur@jjsoft.com) Received: from jjsoft.com (lion.jjsoft.com [206.97.159.66]) by runner.jjsoft.com (8.9.0/8.9.0) with ESMTP id PAA17545; Wed, 23 Dec 1998 15:05:32 -0600 (CST) Message-ID: <36815BAA.EE27EE3A@jjsoft.com> Date: Wed, 23 Dec 1998 15:07:55 -0600 From: Jahanur R Subedar Organization: J & J Software Solutions,www.jjsoft.com X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (Win95; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Roman Katsnelson CC: wcook@gapartners.com, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: How do you get paid References: <367FD9E4.2544@gapartners.com> <367FDB4F.BBCC1508@globix.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I am a System Administrator , running Freebsd servers.

Do you want to boot the freebsd box and have it acquire it's IP and such from a DHCP server somewhere else on the LAN? If so, I do this on my laptop with the "isc-dhcp2" port using the "dhclient" program. At home I have a DHCP server (also running on FreeBSD :-) and the offices I usually work at have servers (not on FreeBSD, unfortunately). It's been a while since I used the WIDE software but I expect it has a client too. The external DHCP server should provide your FreeBSD client with its IP, default router, DNS domain and server address so you should have to do this.

Take DOS for instance. Using 32-bit memory extenders, you can run some decent programs, and actually take advantage of your memory.. took a long time for it to be available, too! But unfortunately, so much of DOS is machine language, it'd be a hassle ( and a waste of a machine :) to port. C is highly portable; machine lingo is not. Programming to the machine you're on is only useful for low-level drivers; ASM may be faster, but if you have a good C compiler and a fast machine, the functionality the OS will provide far outweighs the tons of machine language that goes down the drain when the machine becomes obsolete. -rob ( www.namodn.com ) ( robert@namodn.com ) On Wed, 23 Dec 1998, Gustavo Vieira G C Rios wrote: > Yeah, you are right, but this does not mean i am worng. > Your suggestion is what i told "known as many as possible from the > machine you are programming to" .

Right? e.g. Nah, the DHCP client SW should take care of all this. At least the ISC one does for me. Now that you mention it, I'm not sure what it would config with this info unless it monkeyed with resolv.conf. It won't hurt to put that info there, but it seems like it shouldn't be necessary.

I dont know wether it is me or my hardware... > But it seems a bit slower. It's at the speed at which you type, with the exception of the repeat. The repeat rate is determined by the keyboard. The operating system (or Microsoft) doesn't enter into it. To change the repeat rate and repeat holdoff, use kbdcontrol. By default, the holdoff (time before the keyboard starts repeating) is 500 ms, and the repeat rate 8 per second (126 ms). The fastest you can set is a holdoff of 250 ms and a repeat rate of 30 per second (34 ms per character). You can set this with # kbdcontrol -r 250.34 I personally use 250.42, about 24 repeats per second. Set these values in /etc/rc.conf: keyrate="250.42" # keyboard rate to: slow, normal, fast (or NO). Don't worry about the comment. I suppose we should change it. More details in kbdcontrol(8).

Seems ok, SCSI is better supported than IDE, I'm not sure which you have.. Just to make sure it works with your system, you can download the boot image from www.freebsd.org, and just install the base system.. if redhat did not work, that could very well point to a hardware problem, unfortunately.. or, ( hopefully ) maybe just a misconfiguration. Whatever you choose, good luck! :) -rob ( www.namodn.com ) ( robert@namodn.com ) > > Any ideas? > > Eric > > 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 Dec 23 17:16:41 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA06365 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 23 Dec 1998 17:16:41 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from allegro.lemis.com (allegro.lemis.com [192.109.197.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id RAA06340; Wed, 23 Dec 1998 17:16:36 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from grog@freebie.lemis.com) Received: from freebie.lemis.com (freebie.lemis.com [192.109.197.137]) by allegro.lemis.com (8.9.1/8.9.0) with ESMTP id LAA09947; Thu, 24 Dec 1998 11:46:07 +1030 (CST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.1/8.9.0) id LAA14602; Thu, 24 Dec 1998 11:46:09 +1030 (CST) Message-ID: <19981224114608.Z12346@freebie.lemis.com> Date: Thu, 24 Dec 1998 11:46:08 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: Gustavo Vieira G C Rios , FreeBSD Questions , FreeBSD Security , FreeBSD Br Subject: Re: keeping updated with FreeBSD (some help please) References: <3680F56B.128CBDDF@netshell.vicosa.com.br> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.91.1i In-Reply-To: <3680F56B.128CBDDF@netshell.vicosa.com.br>; from Gustavo Vieira G C Rios on Wed, Dec 23, 1998 at 11:51:39AM -0200 WWW-Home-Page: http://www.lemis.com/~grog Organization: LEMIS, PO Box 460, Echunga SA 5153, Australia Phone: +61-8-8388-8286 Fax: +61-8-8388-8725 Mobile: +61-41-739-7062 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Wednesday, 23 December 1998 at 11:51:39 -0200, Gustavo Vieira G C Rios wrote: > Can anyone do any comments about this supfile? > I am beginning with FreeBSD, so i just wanna update my 2.2.7 Release to > 3.0.0!

You still have a typo there ('defatul'). I'll get back with a more detailed analysis when I have time, but about the only real thing I see wrong here is that you're trying to get it from cvsup.internat.FreeBSD.org, which is really only intended for crypto software. They don't have the bandwidth for the complete system, and I'm not even sure they have it avaialable. Try a different site for src-all and doc-all. In case something *does* go wrong, it would be a good idea to rename /usr/src and /usr/doc before starting (or at least do a backup).

The new computer has come with a Maxtor DiamondMax 4320, which by convention is breaking the 8.4 gig limits. The BIOS is recognizing the harddisk correctly, and showing it to be of 17.2gig, but we cannot get the partition manager to allow us more than 8gig partition. We have tryed manually entering the drives geometry, but that is not doing the trick. Do you know of any support documents, or know an answer to this problem. As you might imagine, we are hoping to use all 17gig of harddisk space. We would like to cut the drive in 1/2, using 8gig for the /usr and split the other 8 gig up between /var and /scr If you know of a document that would help us in accomplishing this, we appreciate it. And we are trying to use the holiday to configure this -- for whatever reason I did not think this was going to be a problem. And of course we have larger problems of moving from one machine to the other to face, so any help, direction, documents, etc. that you might be able to send my way, I really appreciate it.

If you *do* get -CURRENT, of course, make sure to subscribe to the FreeBSD-current mailing list; otherwise you have a number of superb opportunities for shooting yourself in the foot.

For that you can buy a couple of 8 GB disk drives, and that might be a better way to do backups :-) Greg -- See complete headers for address, home page and phone numbers finger grog@lemis.com for PGP public key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 23 17:40:44 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA08719 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 23 Dec 1998 17:40:44 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from allegro.lemis.com (allegro.lemis.com [192.109.197.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id RAA08711 for ; Wed, 23 Dec 1998 17:40:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from grog@freebie.lemis.com) Received: from freebie.lemis.com (freebie.lemis.com [192.109.197.137]) by allegro.lemis.com (8.9.1/8.9.0) with ESMTP id MAA10063 for ; Thu, 24 Dec 1998 12:10:23 +1030 (CST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.1/8.9.0) id MAA14651; Thu, 24 Dec 1998 12:10:25 +1030 (CST) Message-ID: <19981224121025.C12346@freebie.lemis.com> Date: Thu, 24 Dec 1998 12:10:25 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: SCSI Tape Drive Recommendations?

Maybe. I wish HP wouldn't use these silly marketing names. They have part numbers, too, but it's a pain finding them. Don't buy a DDS-1 such as the C1536.

What's wrong with it being external?

Used Exabytes are seldom a good choice, and you may find that they store a lot less data than you think.

Except for the fact the they're not much more reliable either. :( I personally have never even used one, but from what I understand they're as picky to setup as the Zip drives are. I think that for the money, another hard drive is still the best, most reliable way to go.

Assuming that doesn't bother me ... would one just not mount it until you wanted to backup or restore? Would one use tar or something else to backup? Just curious.

It's difficult to say, but it appears that ccd is part of the problem. It would be interesting to see your configuration, both /etc/ccd.conf and /etc/fstab.

It is unrelated to both DOS and Windows. It is UNIX and can be run on the same computer as Windows or DOS. That is how mine is setup. It is much more stable than any of the Windows incarnations. And best of all it is free or can be had for nominal cost on a CDROM. FreeBSD is a great server operating system and it can be used as a desktop OS. There is a bit of a learning curve, but with some effort it can replace Windows for most day-to-day work. Check out our web site at www.freebsd.org for more info. If you have further questions, please ask and I will try to help. Good luck.

The Last code will be smaller, faster, etc, without having to use only one asm code line. When i tell that is necessary to know the arch you are programming to, means just to have faster and smaller programs, you know QNX RTOS ? It's a very good example about what i am talking.

Buy a so-called ``mobile rack'', a frame with a removable drawer in which you insert the disk. They're worth buying for the funny pseudo-English instruction manual alone. > Assuming that doesn't bother me ... > would one just not mount it until you wanted to backup or restore? > Would one use tar or something else to backup? Just curious. A good question. tar has some advantages, including highest storage density, but random access isn't one of them, so it might be worth using it as a file system. You might combine the two (keep multiple backups of individual file systems as compressed tar archives, for example).

Well, I'm not sure I know what you're doing. BUT, FreeBSD will run on most PC-based machines. PicoBSD is perfect for embedded systems. FreeBSD is in itself an operating system, it will probally never be run on DOS as that would be counter-productive. If I understand what you're doing, simply install FreeBSD onto a PC, run the Apache software, connect it to the network, and you're set.

It is the split-key (ergonomic), 107-key version (not the 109-key w/ touchpad). The keyboard is connected to a FreeBSD 2.2.8-RELEASE machine, with syscons driver, psm driver for the PS/2 mouse, and so on (mail me if you need to see the entire kernel config). The problem is that somewhat randomly (I cannot repeat this on-demand), about every 2-3 days (sometimes not even 1 day, sometimes 4-5 days) of being up, the keyboard freezes. It is usually after switching virtual consoles (with alt+Fkey). I could not find a way to reset the keyboard after it froze, and had to reboot the machine remotely. When I un-plug the keyboard and plug it back in, the Num/Caps/Scroll lock LEDs flash, but the keyboard is still frozen. Only way I could get it back to work is by rebooting the machine. It seems, though, that this is a problem with the keyboard itself, not FreeBSD (I haven't verified this). I've had this problem with Linux and Windows 98 as well, but in those cases, simply un-plugging and plugging the keyboard back in fixes the problem. Assuming that this is a problem with the keyboard, is there way to prevent this somehow (I doubt it, but ...)? If not, is there any way to reset it, so that I could use the keyboard again without rebooting (something like /usr/sbin/kcon -R won't help, since I'm using the syscons driver, not pcvt)? If any of you readers have experienced a similar problem with the same kind of keyboard, or a different kind, I'd like to know. Thanks for your time. -d.

It's from a Sun system. However, ~30 minutes after starting 'dump', the system hangs, printing /kernel: sd1(ncr0:1:0): error code 1 /kernel: , retries:4 /kernel: sd1(ncr0:1:0): error code 1 /kernel: , retries:2 /kernel: sd1(ncr0:1:0): error code 1 /kernel: , FAILURE /kernel: sd1(ncr0:1:0): ABORTED COMMAND asc:4e,0 Overlapped commands attempted /kernel: , retries:3 on the console. I can ^C the dump command to get the prompt back, but any further disk access (ls, sync, and so on) locks the machine. This also happens when I use tar. This happens *before* dump has printed any of its messages. The boot messages for the SCSI devices on the system are: */kernel: ncr0 rev 3 int a irq 10 on pci0:12:0 /kernel: (ncr0:0:0): "QUANTUM XP32275W LXY4" type 0 fixed SCSI 2 /kernel: sd0(ncr0:0:0): Direct-Access /kernel: sd0(ncr0:0:0): WIDE SCSI (16 bit) enabled /kernel: sd0(ncr0:0:0): 40.0 MB/s (50 ns, offset 16) /kernel: 2170MB (4445380 512 byte sectors) /kernel: (ncr0:1:0): "SEAGATE ST34520W 1444" type 0 fixed SCSI 2 /kernel: sd1(ncr0:1:0): Direct-Access /kernel: sd1(ncr0:1:0): WIDE SCSI (16 bit) enabled /kernel: sd1(ncr0:1:0): 40.0 MB/s (50 ns, offset 15) /kernel: 4340MB (8888924 512 byte sectors) */kernel: (ncr0:4:0): "ARCHIVE Python 02635-XXX 567D" type 1 removable SCSI 2 */kernel: st0(ncr0:4:0): Sequential-Access */kernel: st0(ncr0:4:0): 6.7 MB/s (150 ns, offset 15) */kernel: density code 0x8c, 512-byte blocks, write-enabled /kernel: (ncr0:6:0): "TOSHIBA CD-ROM XM-3801TA 0207" type 5 removable SCSI 2 /kernel: cd0(ncr0:6:0): CD-ROM /kernel: cd0(ncr0:6:0): 10.0 MB/s (100 ns, offset 8) * = controller and tape drive. The mailing list archives have messages from people using ARCHIVE Python drives successfully, but none of them seem to have the same revision number as this one. AltaVista and DejaNews searches for those error messages (and revision numbers) haven't turned up anything useful either. I've checked for SCSI problems. The internal SCSI cable (two disks on it) is short enough, and properly terminated. The external SCSI cable only has this tape drive on it, and is ~ 1.5 feet long. The tape drive is self terminating, but the problem happens if add a terminator to the drive as well. I'm running 2.2.7-stable, built around the middle of last November. Upgrading to 2.2.8 is feasible to fix this, but if possible I don't want to have to go to -current to fix it (the reason I want it working is so that I can take a backup, wipe the system, and start running -current on it). Any suggestions gratefully received.

Basically, during a session (typically downloading news), my connection fails, but ppp keeps the line open until timeout. When this happens, I can't ping any other host and my active download (or whatever) fails. Using pppctl, I can close the connection manually but it's very sluggish - the prompt changes to: PPp ON dmg> and stays like this for some time before changing to the closed prompt. Once this has happened once, it seems much more likely to happen again. I'm using ppp -auto. I don't get anything analogous when dialling using NT so it doesn't seem to be any major problem with my line or the ISP, as far as I can tell... Can anyone shed any light on the cause of the problem?

Hmm. Is this a follow on to your post "ppp" on 21/12? I'd guess that there's a syntax error in the ``set dial'' line (which in the ppp.conf in your original post is #'d out). Have a close look where the ``TIMEOUT 5'' is, it appears to be expecting the peer to send ``5''.

Ellenburg" Subject: Serial Port Speeds Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Seasons Greetings, I am using a Compaq DeskPro 4000 Computer, with an add-on serial card with 16550A UARTs. The Compaq has embedded serial ports, but they are only have 16450 UARTs. These embedded serial ports have been disabled in the computer's bios. When FreeBSD boots (3.0-RELEASE), dmesg reports that sio0 and sio1 are both "16550A" ports. However, I can not appear to be able to set my port speeds greater than 57600. Doing so, and I can not talk to my modem (BitSurfr Pro). I've tried recompiling the kernel, and implicitly specifying "flags 0x20000" on each sio line in the kernel configuration file. Using that kernel, when FreeBSD boots, dmesg reports the UARTs as being "ST16550A" as opposed to just "16550A" using the GENERIC entries. There's already a device entry for /dev/cuaa0 (which ppp uses). Do I need to delete that dev entry, or sio* and remake them using MAKEDEV after I've rebuilt the kernel? Any pointers or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Kinda hard to connect at 128kbps when your pipe only supports 57.6. ;-) Happy Holidays, George Ellenburg To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 24 07:19:45 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id HAA11296 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 24 Dec 1998 07:19:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from imsp074.netvigator.com (imsp074.netvigator.com [205.252.144.129]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id HAA11291 for ; Thu, 24 Dec 1998 07:19:38 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from sbirdy@netvigator.com) Received: from netvigator.com (hhtam041053.netvigator.com [208.139.111.53]) by imsp074.netvigator.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id XAA27390 for ; Thu, 24 Dec 1998 23:19:20 +0800 (HKT) Message-ID: <36825E42.41096EA9@netvigator.com> Date: Thu, 24 Dec 1998 23:31:15 +0800 From: Billy Ma X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.04 [en] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: why freebsd 3.0 use bind 8.12 instead of traditional 4.9xx ?

This is a problem now because I know have 8Gig of unusable disk across 4 IDE drives... that is starting to be a lot! I am doing this via sysinstall (the newest from /usr/src/release/sysinstall) so could that be causing a problem?? Any help or indication of what stupid thing I am doing wrong would be great. I am from an AIX background, so obviously a lot of this is new to me... is vinum possibly an answer to my questions? Thanks in advance.

I am trying to use cvs's cvswrappers feature to cover some binary maintenance. I put a .cvswrappers file in my home directory with the contents: *.class -f '/usr/bin/gzip -d %s' -t '/usr/bin/gzip %s /net/cvs/binaries' -m 'COPY' Then when I try to use cvs to check out anything, I get the following error message: % /usr/local/src/cvs-1.10/src/cvs checkout CVSROOT % cvs [checkout aborted]: -t/-f wrappers not supported by this version of CVS Am I incorrect in assuming that FreeBSD uses CVS? Is there a cvs version which works on FreeBSD which is avail? It does seem to work okay on linux, or at least it does not give any error message. Does the FreeBSD org do anything with the binaries interms of cvs? When I do a make check as root, the system fails at: This test should produce no other output than this line, and a final "OK".

What are Jaz selling for now? $235 for the drive, $100 for each 2G platter? Just shooting at prices its very easy to spend more on media than on the drive. I feel uncomfortable if I don't have at least 10 pieces of media laying around for my backup system. IMHO a much better value is the Conner 4326 DDS-2 drive for $399 (2G to 4G, more if compression works for you) on $6 (90M DDS-1) to $12 (120M DDS-2) tapes. Haven't bought from there, and their site doesn't seem to work very well at the moment but http://www.basoncomputers.com/ carries the 4326. Finally, now their (aparently NT web server) is doing its job: http://www.basoncomputer.com/td/td.htm The Conner 8000 is a newer generation of the Conner (actually Archive relabled Conner, supported by Seagate) 4326. Performance is the same. Saving $20 the Conner 4324 is a 4326 without compression. IMHO spend the $20. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

At some point in the past the FreeBSD Apache port did not install the htpasswd binary. One had to go find it in the sources ("make patch" would get them for you), compile it, and manually move it somewhere it could be used. Am not sure if that was once Apache Policy followed by FreeBSD and continued by Stronghold, or simply an oversight. However if you are *paying* for Stronghold, one should pester them for support else they won't know their customers are having problems... Not that there is any problem asking on FreeBSD-questions too. Its worth it to learn Stronghold doesn't apparently include htpasswd... :-) -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

Why would one be needed? Aren't those things cable-modem-like boxes with a UTP ethernet port? If so, use the ethernet card of your choice.

Both Cisco, the 675 is external and comes with an ethernet card for your machine and a crossover ethernet cable. It's currently configured for bridge mode (PPP in the spring) and you get addresses via dhcp. In ppp mode the 675 has a dhcp server. The other is the 605, it is an internal PCI card. The only driver is for Windows, although Apple is interested in making a driver. I have both (I'm doing support here, or starting to), I prefer the 675, since it can be used for multiple machines and OSes. Also, the 605 is ONLY available buying it pre-installed directly from Dell. -- What this country needs is a good five-cent nickel.

Yes, it looks silly, but it > seems to be a good drive (and, before you ask, yes, it's supported). A problem with most PC's is that they suck - literally. Instead of using a fan to draw air in through a filter and pressurize the case, they suck air in through every pore and out via the power supply. And PC's are often operated in much dirtier environments than large-scale tape systems. I've removed dust bunnies the size of elephants from internal tape drives, little door flaps notwithstanding. Perhaps a naturally-cooled external drive would be much cleaner and more reliable? All this talk about poor reliability is not encouraging, as I am looking for a backup solution for a remote web/mail server. Unattended tape solutions like changers are awfully expensive, but so are the NOC fees for changing tapes manually with a single-tape machine. I'm tempted to buy an external tape machine like the Exabyte 8700LT for home and try transferring backups over my dialup connection overnight (10 MB/hr for compressed data). Since most of the dynamic data on the server is text files like web pages, this should compress quite well. I guess such a procedure could be automated. However, although this might work OK for partial or incremental backups, I hate to think of trying a full backup. Maybe with a cable connection. BTW, what about dump for backup to disk? -- Graeme Tait - Echidna To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 24 12:08:16 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA14404 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 24 Dec 1998 12:08:16 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from horton.iaces.com (horton.iaces.com [204.147.87.98]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA14399 for ; Thu, 24 Dec 1998 12:08:12 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from proot@horton.iaces.com) Received: (from proot@localhost) by horton.iaces.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA09950; Thu, 24 Dec 1998 14:07:58 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from proot) From: "Paul T.

If I do decide to buy a new one, I *certainly* do not want to buy the "Microsoft Natural Elite", perhaps the original Microsoft Natural -- but I do not know where I can find these any more.

Any ideas? (BTW, I don't like > the way the arrow keys are on the Natural Elite :)). If you have to have one of those ergo keyboards, (I can't stand them they actually hurt my hands even worse,) I think Kingston makes one that is pretty good. As for the older Microsoft ones, your best bet will be to hit small computer stores that haven't sold them yet. I looked them up at some of my suppliers, but nobody has them. :( Rick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 24 13:20:02 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA21514 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 24 Dec 1998 13:20:02 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.HiWAAY.net (fly.HiWAAY.net [208.147.154.56]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA21457 for ; Thu, 24 Dec 1998 13:19:59 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net) Received: from n4hhe.ampr.org (tnt1-121.HiWAAY.net [208.147.147.121]) by mail.HiWAAY.net (8.9.1a/8.9.0) with ESMTP id PAA06375; Thu, 24 Dec 1998 15:19:45 -0600 (CST) Received: from nospam.hiwaay.net (localhost.ampr.org [127.0.0.1]) by n4hhe.ampr.org (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id PAA01937; Thu, 24 Dec 1998 15:19:27 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net) Message-Id: <199812242119.PAA01937@n4hhe.ampr.org> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.0.2 2/24/98 To: "Stan Brown" cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG From: David Kelly Subject: Re: When will 3.0 be shiped to subscribers?

When I signed up, I signed up for the -stable branch which currently (hey! that's a pun!) means 2.2.x. Saw an announcement that 3.x will go -stable in January. So I guess the next -stable subscription CD's would be arriving in February or March with 3.x, right on the 3 to 4 sets/year subscription rate. FreeBSD Applixware should be shipping about then too. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

Please help a newbie keep his x-windows installation from crashing... Symptoms and known technical information is below. Sorry in advance for the length of this message. The OS... FreeBSD 2.2.8 from the CD-ROM Attempting to install XFree86, the version that shipped with Walnut Creek's CD ROM set. The machine... i486 DX50 20 megs ram SIIG Fast EIDE Controller 2 gig EIDE Maxtor Hard drive TEAC CD-56 4x CD-ROM ATAPI The video card... Trident 8900Dz Video Card, with 1meg ram This card is in the card database, and that data is used in the setup. The documentation for the card has the following information: 460X480 with 16,256, 64K colors 768X1024 with 16-I 800X600 16,256, 32K 1024X 768 16-I/IN, 256-I/IN All modes non-interlaced except where indicated by an "I" The monitor... Ambra Monitor BMS 3500 15 UVGA FST Monitor This card is not mentioned in any of the databases I have been able to find, but I do have the following information: 640X480 NI 60-70 800X600 NI 56hz 800X600 NI 72hz 1024X768 I 87hz 1024X768 NO 60-70hz The XFree86 configuration file is appended below. Sorry for wasting the bandwith sending this big file, but I figured the file was important for diagnosing the problem. SYMPTOM: After going through set up (XF86Config), I run "startX" . (No reboot after setup) Then the following happens very quickly: 1. Some text flies up across the screen, mostly a list of modes that end with "Deleted." 2. Then the screen goes black....much hard drive activity... 3. Several tiny white dots appear on the black screen. 4. Flips back to text mode, showing the trailing end of the list of deleted SVGA modes. At this point the screen is "frozen" although the keyboard NUM LOCK and SCROLL lock buttons still seem operational. I am unable to get the screen to do anything, requiring a alt-cntl-delete to restart the system and bring back the screen. I have read through the manpages and the associated XFree86 sites on the web, but none seem to troubleshoot this sort of installation problem. It's probably something simple, but I am unable to find it after many hours of reading and fiddling with various config settings. Thanks to all on this list who have gotten this far, and I am very appreciative for any and all help.

Last I checked, you weren't a committer, so your answer is not relevant to the question. [someone in Core may want to correct me if the following paragraph is incorrect] I know of only three FreeBSD developers who get paid directly for their involvment in developing FreeBSD. There are many cases where people do FreeBSD work for their employer which they then contribute back to the Project, and a few cases of people getting hired as consultants by WC to perform specific, well-defined tasks (e.g. Kirk McKusick for fixing fs bugs), but the rest of us do it for free.

I don't think this is your problem, but if you're using a 386sx-16 with 5 megs of RAM and processing 10,000 messages a day, you might be having some problems. Also, what kind of net connection do you have? If you're using UUCP, that could be the source of the delay. Most likely, however, I think your mail server's clock is set wrong, or set to the wrong timezone. Does the output of the "date" command match what your local time is supposed to be? If not, do a "man -k timezone" and you can see the commands you can use to set the timezone correctly. Read the manpage for the "date" command, as well.

Background: When compiling with the pthread option (gcc -pthread) gcc happily accepts calls to pthread_attr_getscope but complains when pthread_attr_setscope is used. History: Searching the Bug Reports Repository, it was reported as a bug in July that pthread_attr_setscope was not implemented. Perhaps I can repair the problem by consulting with the Linux POSIX threads compatibility library (setscope and getscope are each three-liners). QUESTION: Where in the source tree will I find the group of files that implement POSIX threads compatibility?

My screen turns blue, with a large cursor at the left of the bottom line, and it just sits there. No data is trasmitted over the modem (the lights do not flash). After a few minutes I press ctl-alt-del, and it asks me whether I really want to abort. If I say no, it just keeps sitting there. I finally said yes, since I obviously do not know what else to do.

Well, this is from the chapter on installation, but it should be the same: Now the installation is completed, but you may still have some housekeeping to do. Did you include a /var file system on your disk? In the example, we didn't. If we don't specify anything else, /var will end up on the root file system, which isn't enormous. If we leave things like that, there's a very good chance that the root file system will fill up. We solve this problem by creating a directory /usr/var and a symbolic link /var which points to /usr/var: # mkdir /usr/var create a new directory # cd /var move to the old /var directory # tar cf - . | (cd /usr/var; tar xf - ) copy its contents # cd / get out of the directory # rm -rf /var and remove it # ln -s /usr/var /var now link to the new directory After performing these steps, you might see messages like: Jan 9 13:15:00 myname syslogd: /var/run/utmp: no such file or directory syslogd is the System Log daemon. [1] Don't worry about these messages. If you're intending to restart the system soon, just wait until then and the messages will go away. Otherwise you can restart syslogd: # ps waux | grep syslogd look for the syslog daemon root 152 11.0 1.6 176 476 v0 D+ 1:16M 0:00.15 grep syslogd root 58 0.0 1.1 184 332 ?? Ds 1:13 0:00:57 syslogd # kill -9 58 stop the PID of syslogd # syslogd and start it again The PID of the syslogd is the second field on the line which ends with just syslogd. The first line is the process which is looking for the text syslogd. See Chapter 10, Making friends with FreeBSD, page 190, for more information on stopping processes. Programs should not write large files to /tmp; if a program needs to create a ____________________ [1] See Chapter 10, Making friends with FreeBSD, page 187, for a description of daemons. Page 83 Rebooting the new system large temporary file, it should create it in /var/tmp. Unfortunately, the location of the temporary files is not usually in your hands. It would be tempting to also replace /tmp with a symbolic link to /var/tmp, but the system handles /tmp and /var/tmp slightly differently: after a reboot, it removes all files from /tmp, but it leaves the files in /var/tmp. You can solve this problem by creating a directory /usr/tmp and creating a link to it. Perform the following steps in single-user mode (see Chapter 10, Making friends with FreeBSD, page 191, for a description of single user mode and how to get into it). # mkdir /usr/tmp create a new directory # rm -rf /tmp and remove the old /tmp # ln -s /usr/tmp /tmp now link to the new directory Greg -- See complete headers for address, home page and phone numbers finger grog@lemis.com for PGP public key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 24 17:16:23 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA16483 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 24 Dec 1998 17:16:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from voyager.dreamhaven.net (dt0f6n9a.san.rr.com [24.94.29.154]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id RAA16464 for ; Thu, 24 Dec 1998 17:16:22 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from data@dreamhaven.net) Received: (qmail 2601 invoked by uid 1010); 25 Dec 1998 01:16:10 -0000 Date: Thu, 24 Dec 1998 17:16:10 -0800 (PST) From: Bryce Newall To: FreeBSD Questions List Subject: More problems 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 all, and Merry Christmas Eve! It seems I only write when I'm having trouble... well, I've got a couple of real doosies this time. These both came about from trying to swap out a couple of hard drives between two machines (which didn't work, but more on that later), and trying to upgrade one machine from 2.2.5-STABLE to 2.2.8-STABLE. The problem I ran into in the upgrade process was that my machine no longer recognizes its 3Com 3C905 ethernet card (not the B version). Under the 2.2.5-STABLE kernel, it would recognize it as follows: Dec 24 13:12:01 voyager /kernel: vx0 <3COM 3C905 Fast Etherlink XL PCI> rev 0 in t a irq 9 on pci0:13 Under the 2.2.8-STABLE kernel, though, it does this: Dec 24 16:14:09 voyager /kernel: pci0:13: vendor=0x10b7, device=0x9050, class=network (ethernet) int a irq 9 [no driver assigned] I know one of the things 2.2.8 was supposed to include support for was the new 3C905B card, but I would assume that doesn't mean support for the plain '905 was dropped ?! Ok, onto the next problem... it seems that both my old 2.2.7 boot disk and my 2.2.8 boot disk will no longer boot on either of two systems. It gets through the visual configuration section, and then when I quit and save, I get an immediate "Fatal trap 12" error, and the system reboots. This came about because of the 3rd problem I'm about to describe... I was trying to swap hard drives between 2 machines. Normally not a big deal, except that both drives happened to be the root partition on each drive (d'oh!). The machine called ds9 had an 850 MB SCSI drive as /, and the machine called voyager had a 540 MB SCSI drive as /. The object was to swap the two and end up with a bigger drive for voyager. Here's the procedure I followed: 1) Installed ds9's 850 into Voyager as a high SCSI ID. 2) Booted voyager into single-user off it's 540. 3) Copied contents of 850 into a temp dir on the 540 (it all fit). 4) Zapped and repartitioned the 850 so that it could be swap, /, and /var (thus enabling me to rid my system of an IDE swap drive). 5) Copied everything from the 540 to the correct dirs on the 850 (except the temp dir). 6) Shut down voyager, removed the 540, put the 850 in its place as SCSI ID 0. 7) Powered back on, got boot loader, but it couldn't find the kernel on sd(0,a). Figured that was because I made swap first, so I told it to look at sd(0,b), and it found a kernel. However, despite copying the kernel file from voyager's 540, the kernel still showed that it was ds9's kernel. It also went into sysinstall on bootup, and wouldn't let me out without rebooting. I suspect that, from #7, somehow there's something similar to Linux that tells the machine specifically on what sector to look for the kernel. That may be what's happening, since fdisk only mucks with the partition table, and not with the actual data that was on the drive. So I'm suspicious that it's booting from the wrong kernel and going into stupid mode. When I put the 540 back in as ID 0 and leave the 850 out, all is fine. What I'm wondering is, is there a way I can copy the contents of the 540 to the 850 and tell the 850's boot loader where its kernel is? I thought I could just reinstall FreeBSD on the 850, but that's when I ran into trouble with the boot disk.... (bleah). Fortunately, the 540 still has the contents of itself plus the 850, so I haven't lost any data.. yet. Thanks in advance for any help! ********************************************************************** * Bryce Newall * Email: data@dreamhaven.net * * WWW: http://home.dreamhaven.net/~data * * "Insanity takes its toll.

I have been buying old scsi drives that are still under warranty and sending them in for replacement. I got my 2 gig quantum for $17.50 total and my 1 gig seagate for $4.50 the others still work fine though. here is my setup / 340 meg quantum /var 340 meg quantum /users 1 gig seagate /usr 2gig quantum. i think its kinda cool to see which led comes on and know what directory or drive is being accessed. someday i will get bigger drives to experiment with.

FreeBSD is up to version 2.2.8 now, the directory structure has changed at ftp.freebsd.org that why you can't get into the directory anymore. :) So, you either need to do a little leg work and find out where the directory is now, or upgrade. The 2nd is highly suggested, the changes that have been made are just phenonemal and will cause you less headaches in the long run.

Apparently doing something like this is not a good idea under heavy NFS IO with big files. [fstab] >/dev/da0s1e /export/1 ufs rw 3 2 >/dev/da0s1f /export/2 ufs rw 3 2 >/dev/da1s1a /export/3 ufs rw 2 2 >localhost:/export/1/FreeBSD /usr nfs rw 0 0 >localhost:/export/2/FreeBSD/src /usr/src nfs rw 0 0 >localhost:/export/3/FreeBSD/ports /usr/ports nfs rw 0 0 >localhost:/export/3/home /home nfs rw 0 0 [exports] >/export/1 -alldirs -maproot=root >/export/2 -alldirs >/export/3 -alldirs I was doing a 'make update' (cvsup) on /usr/src and NFS consistantly went out to lnuch on fortunes.dat (first file of notable size). Whatever it did, it took out all NFS exporting which led to hung machines on my little network. Doing a 'make update' on another box, which NFS mounts practically everything off the server (s/localhost/nfsserver) works wonderfully. So are loopback mounts dangerous? Did I hit some sort of race condition by double mounting? My idea was that I could sit down on any of my hosts and expect to see the same FS layout. This also necessitated some /etc/rc edits to start nfsd VERY early in the process and a staticly compiled portmap installed in /sbin, etc. I'm beginning to think this was a bad move afterall and that I should just dedicate the box to NFS and not play fancy games with mount points. Now onto a mountd question. I've noticed the different behavior exhibited by the 3 more popular free unix's. If no host is specified in /etc/exports, OpenBSD tosses the line, FreeBSD defaults to everyone (with whatever options provided), and Linux uses everyone but explicitely changes the mount type to be anonymous (nosuid, nodev etc). I think the Linux guys for once came up with the best solution. Is there any interest in folding in the Linux everyone=anonymous behavior? Linux also lets you specify a raft of options on the server side such that I don't have to specify (ro,nosuid,nodev) on each and every client. The Free/OpenBSD syntax seems rather backward/limiting by comparison. Likewise Free/OpenBSD lack the ability to export filesystems except at their mount points. Right now I have to export all of /export/2 (above) with the -alldirs flag instead of something like /export/2/FreeBSD -options. Again, is there any interest in adding such functionality? Please don't take this as a knock against the *BSD family. I'm a HUGE proponent of the platform and run exactly 1 Linux box out of the dozen or more hosts under my control. If there is sufficient interest (or maybe even if not) I intend to generate appropriate diffs at some later point in time.

I just started reading about the cvsup process. In the past I've alwyas done a fresh reload from CD or the network. What is the difference between using CVS to upgrade to a newer version rather than the upgrade option in /stand/sysinstall? I"m guessing the later simply gives you the binaries and CVS gives you the source to compile..but I'd like to confirm this. I've got about 350 megs left on my 3.0 RELEASE drive and doubt getting the source is the way to go. Thanks for the help!

I've posted it to the bug reports section on the freebsd web page. I've posted it on the newsgroups. Does anyone know what this is all about? is anyone *working* on it?

Yes, this is a bug from whatever program this is (you don't say, but it looks like mount(8)). But IIRC you're using a very old version of FreeBSD. You could enter a PR and somebody might look at it, but you'd be better off demonstrating that it exists on a current version of FreeBSD.

It suggests to me that you have somehow messed up the partition table (since the second one suggests that your partition offset is reasonable). > I have tried creating a normal slice and a "dangerously dedicated" slice, > with the same results. > > This is a problem now because I know have 8Gig of unusable disk across > 4 IDE drives... that is starting to be a lot! > > I am doing this via sysinstall (the newest from > /usr/src/release/sysinstall) so could that be causing a problem?? > > Any help or indication of what stupid thing I am doing wrong would > be great.

I'd suggest that you install one disk whichever way you can, and then show the output of fdisk wd0 disklabel wd0 fdisk wd1 disklabel wd1 fdisk wd2 disklabel wd2 fdisk wd3 disklabel wd3 If you prefer, you can copy down what the sysinstall partition editor and label editor show, but make sure you get it *exactly* right. If they're all the same, of course, you only need to write it down one time.

I have never managed to get loopback mounts to work reliably with NFSv3. I believe that there is a deadlock connected with the vnode locks (which doesn't appear on NFSv2 since writes are performed synchronously).

I think that supporting export locations not at a mount point would be hard. The filehandle currently only specifies which mount point is being referenced so a client could easily fake a filehandle for files outside the mounted tree and it would be hard to detect. A totally different scheme for generating filehandles would probably be needed. -- Doug Rabson Mail: dfr@nlsystems.com Nonlinear Systems Ltd.

It's up to you to find out which (and it can be frustrating doing so), but memory chips and cache are high on the list, and incorrect BIOS settings can give the same results even if the hardware is OK.

Hi. I don't have anything to do with committing code to BSD. However, the basic principles behind open source is what drives development in my shop. When I came onboard we were running PROGRESS databases on Novell UnixWare. After explaining the ideas behind FSF/GNU and Linux to my employers I was able to convince them that we needed to run our db apps under iBCS2 on Linux. This we did as an interim measure. After completing this phase I began urging a move to an ANSI SQL compliant db that runs on Linux or FreeBSD as native code. We have resolved that all future development will be for PostgreSQL databases (we now have more pg databases deployed than PROGRESS db's.) The language that replaced the Progress 4GL was perl (using the DBI approach) and it was the perl artistic licence, as well as the Beserkely licence, that enabled me to convince my employers that we need to keep our code in the public domain. This allows me to use donated labour (from a team of programmers, mostly Canadians) to build our apps. The last step is to replace our mail server with a FreeBSD box. When this is done we will be a `Walnut Creek shop'. I have an allergic reaction to any brand of Linux other than Slackware. (End of Partisan Comments ;-) In as much as we are funded with public monies it is nice to say that we are pleased to have all of our code open source. I don't get paid to write open source code, per se. I am doing that (at 06:00 on 25 DEC 98) because I *believe* in it. While there are lots of apps available for general medicine there isn't much for psychiatry (especially for sites that offer a full range of services including inpatient and detox units.) --- DES - a question if I may be permitted. Is the version of iBCS2 a port of the src penned by Mike Jagdis? Or something hacked inhouse? (Just curious here.) Finally, I agree with Mark Ovens about the list.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Merry Christmas, I am using a Compaq DeskPro 4000 Computer, with an add-on serial card with 16550A UARTs. The Compaq has embedded serial ports, but they are only have 16450 UARTs. These embedded serial ports have been disabled in the computer's bios. When FreeBSD boots (3.0-RELEASE), dmesg reports that sio0 and sio1 are both "16550A" ports. However, I can not appear to be able to set my port speeds greater than 57600. Doing so, and I can not talk to my modem (BitSurfr Pro). I've tried recompiling the kernel, and implicitly specifying "flags 0x20000" on each sio line in the kernel configuration file. Using that kernel, when FreeBSD boots, dmesg reports the UARTs as being "ST16550A" as opposed to just "16550A" using the GENERIC entries. There's already a device entry for /dev/cuaa0 (which ppp uses). Do I need to delete that dev entry, or sio* and remake them using MAKEDEV after I've rebuilt the kernel? Any pointers or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Kinda hard to connect at 128kbps when your pipe only supports 57.6. ;-) Happy Holidays, George Ellenburg To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 25 08:58:53 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA18317 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 25 Dec 1998 08:58:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from as5200-01-254.no.neosoft.com (as5200-01-254.no.neosoft.com [206.27.167.254]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA18295; Fri, 25 Dec 1998 08:58:46 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from conrads@as5200-01-254.no.neosoft.com) Received: (from conrads@localhost) by as5200-01-254.no.neosoft.com (8.9.1/8.8.7) id KAA71556; Fri, 25 Dec 1998 10:57:57 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from conrads) Date: Fri, 25 Dec 1998 10:57:57 -0600 (CST) From: Conrad Sabatier Message-Id: <199812251657.KAA71556@as5200-01-254.no.neosoft.com> To: multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG, questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Also-Posted-To: comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc Subject: ANNOUNCE: New AWE 32/64 Setup Tutorial Now Available Organization: NeoSoft, Inc.

No. That won't do it. The only way I know of to propagate the option everywhere you need it is to add -DCOMPAT_LINUX_THREADS to your /etc/make.conf file for CFLAGS and COPTFLAGS. Then do a make world. As I noted before, you may also have to apply the cmdline patch listed at the site http://lt.tar.com, though I still haven't tried testing without it.

A bit gets set in the uart called uasually reciever overrun this means that the data was not read before the next byte of data came in thus overrun... uasually this is caused by a slower serial port to modem speed (DTE speed) but can also be caused by a heavily loaded system in the case of pentiums or an older computer with 16450 uarts (9600 baud max). if your actually connecting at 33.6 with compression you need to set your serial port speed at 115200 or turn off your compression and you can set it at 56k. if it still does this i think there was a bug in the older versions of freebsd that kept giving these errors i believe it was on 2.2.5 and below.

BTW, The Os it self has built in load balancing, using a process called "Pervasive Multithreading", that will break down your applications into Hundreds od smaller tasks!, and can be switched in/out as you move from app to app. Also Can be distributed across ANY number of CPUS!!!!, This OS WILL Give *nix, OS/2, Windows NT A VERY BIG RUN FOR THERE MONEY. I always said that Unix could task better than anything I have seen, now I Must change that view to the "Be OS". It uses a 64Bit Journaling File system, NT uses a 32Bit one, supports a Terabyte in drive space, Intergrated Database Capabilites, and a multi- Threaded Graphics system for 2D and 3D graphics using the Open GL Graphics Lib, And on top of all that it has a mutilthreaded I/O system. -:)))))) Designed as an Internet NATIVE System, TCP/IP is the native Network Protocal You could use it as a file server, built in mail, and WWW services, and has Remote Acess Capabilities Thru Telnet. The Be OS will work with any Intel Pentium Or Power PC (Mac) system!, then To go one step farther....... It works With Mac OS, DOS, And UNIX Disks, >From Within the BE OS!!. Support for Java, Has it's own replication software, AND, YES AND, UNIX/ POSIX CAPABILITYS.... Etc, etc, Etc. I could go on and on.... and they only call the Be Os and "OS" not a "NOS"... Shit man...... -:)))))))))) Forget most everything else this Os Will set the standard That All OTHERS MUST follow.

Kill the process which has them open, if you don't want them open. lsof would help here (sysutils/lsof in the ports tree.) Run this as root: # lsof -i | grep smtp exim 18445 exim 0u inet 0xf3f83720 0t0 TCP *:smtp (LISTEN) This shows that Exim, running as pid 18445, has the smtp port open. (You probably don't need lsof for this; sendmail probably has smtp open, lpd probably has printer open. Use ps and grep to find their pids.) These aren't listed in inetd.conf because sendmail and lpd are daemons in themselves, and do not run from inetd.conf. -- Ben Smithurst ben@scientia.demon.co.uk send a blank message to ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk for PGP key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 25 16:55:49 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA18470 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 25 Dec 1998 16:55:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from allegro.lemis.com (allegro.lemis.com [192.109.197.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA18463 for ; Fri, 25 Dec 1998 16:55:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from grog@freebie.lemis.com) Received: from freebie.lemis.com (freebie.lemis.com [192.109.197.137]) by allegro.lemis.com (8.9.1/8.9.0) with ESMTP id LAA19109; Sat, 26 Dec 1998 11:24:49 +1030 (CST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.1/8.9.0) id LAA23900; Sat, 26 Dec 1998 11:24:50 +1030 (CST) Message-ID: <19981226112450.E12346@freebie.lemis.com> Date: Sat, 26 Dec 1998 11:24:50 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: Liao Ying Chieh , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: any guild for using elf kernel ?

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

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

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. The second edition has only just been published, but already a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the first edition of 19 July 1996, please check ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/. This list is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the book to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at General changes _______________ o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the following command to find process information: $ ps aux | grep foo Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator upon which it is working. This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake for this information Location of the sample files ____________________________ 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/ drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/mutt/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 352 Oct 15 15:21 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.mail_aliases -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 9394 Oct 15 15:22 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.muttrc drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 18281 Oct 16 16:52 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.fvwm2rc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 1392 Oct 17 12:54 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-desktop -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 296 Oct 17 12:35 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.xinitrc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 622 Oct 17 13:51 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-rcfiles -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1133 Oct 17 13:00 1997 cfbsd/scripts/Uutry -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1028 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/README drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 18 19:32 1997 cfbsd/docs/ Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 199111 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 189333 Oct 16 14:28 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 188108 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 226439 Oct 16 14:27 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 788 Oct 16 15:01 1997 cfbsd/README -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 248 Oct 17 11:52 1997 cfbsd/errata 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. Page xxxiv __________ 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 General changes 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 5 General changes 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 Page 6 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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. Page 128 ________ Replace the complete text below the example with the following: 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 the following selection. If you must use a two-button mouse, uncomment the keyword Emulate3Buttons--in this mode, pressing both mouse buttons simultane- ously within Emulate3Timeout milliseconds causes the server to report a middle button press. Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" for Microsoft protocol mice Protocol "MouseMan" for Logitech mice Protocol "PS/2" for a PS/2 mouse Protocol "Busmouse" for a bus mouse Device "/dev/ttyd0" for a mouse on the first serial port Device "/dev/ttyd1" for a mouse on the second serial port Device "/dev/ttyd2" for a mouse on the third serial port Device "/dev/ttyd3" for a mouse on the fourth serial port Device "/dev/psm0" for a PS/2 mouse Device "/dev/mse0" for a bus mouse Emulate3Buttons only for a two-button mouse EndSection You'll notice that the protocol name does not always match the manufacturer's name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech Page 7 Install ports when installing the system mice. The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft protocols. Nearly 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 is included in the kernel. The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both mice, but the PS/2 driver is disabled. Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it. Page 140 ________ Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph: If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. Reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter: # mount -u / mount root file system read/write # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 148 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Modern shells supply command line editing which resembles the editors vi or Emacs. In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering Page 152 ________ After figure 10-8, add the following text: It would be tedious for every user to put settings in their private initialization files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file. For 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. Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environment variables at a global level. Changing your shell ___________________ The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing. See page 148 for details of how to enable it. You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection. You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash, also in the Ports Collection. If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's an example before: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /bin/csh Full Name: Jack Velte Location: Office Phone: Home Phone: You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this to: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash Full Name: Jack Velte Location: On the road Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999 Home Phone: chsh checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and exit the editor. The next time you log in, you get the new shell. chsh tries to ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a very Page 9 Install ports when installing the system good idea to check the shell before logging out. You can try this with su, which you normally use to become super user: bumble# su velte Password: su-2.00$ note the new prompt There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell: o The shell for root must be on the root file system, otherwise it will not work in single user mode. Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is almost never on the root file system. o Most shells are dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files such as /usr/lib/libc.a. These files are not available in single user mode, so the shells won't work. You can solve this problem by creating statically linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond the scope of this book. If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps to install it: o Copy the shell to /bin, for example: # cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells, in this example the line in bold print: # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1). # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using # one of these shells. /bin/sh /bin/csh /bin/bash You can then change the shell for root as described above. Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. Page 10 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 160 ________ Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 175 ________ In the section Mounting file systems, replace the text down to and including the example with: Microsoft platforms identify partitions by letters which are assigned at boot time. There is no obvious relation between the partitions, and you have little control over the way the system assigns them. By contrast, all UNIX partitions have a specific relation to the root file system, which is called simply /. This flexibility has one problem: you have the choice of where in the overall file system structure you put your individual file systems. You specify the location with the mount command. For example, you would typically mount a CD- ROM in the directory /cdrom, but if you have three CD-ROM drives attached to your SCSI controller, you might prefer to mount them in the directories /cd0, /cd1, and /cd2. [1] In order to mount a file system, you need to specify the device to be mounted, where it is to be mounted, and the type of file system (unless it is ufs). The mount point, (the directory where it is to be mounted) must already exist. To mount your second CD-ROM on /cd1, you would enter: # mkdir /cd1 only if it doesn't exist # mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/cd1a /cd1 Thanks to Christiane Yeardly for drawing this to my attention. Page 176 ________ Add the following paragraph ____________________ [1] This numbering is in keeping with the UNIX tradition of numbering starting from 0. There's nothing to stop you choosing some other name, of course. Page 11 Install ports when installing the system 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): === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1 umount: /cd1: Device busy === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1 === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 -> Thanks to Ken Deboy for pointing out this omission. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: Page 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label. Page 208, middle of page ________________________ The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and /dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use /dev/nrst0 with any shell if you want a non-rewinding tape, or /dev/rst0 if you want a rewinding tape. Thanks to Norman C Rice for pointing out this one. Page 219 ________ Before the section Testing the spooler add the following section: Starting the spooler ____________________ As we saw above, the line printer daemon lpd is responsible for printing spooled jobs. If you're root, you can start it by name: # lpd Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system starts up. You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf: lpd_enable="YES" # Run the line printer daemon See page 1609 for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my attention. Page 231 ________ Replace the first line of the example with: Page 13 Starting the spooler xhost presto bumble gw The original version allowed anybody on the Internet to access your system. Thanks to Jerry Dunham for drawing this one to my attention. Page 237 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: To do this, you could type in, on presto, $ rsh freebie xterm -ls -display presto:0 & The flag -ls tells xterm that this is a login shell, which causes it to read in the startup files. It might work without this flag, but there's a good chance that some environment variables, such as PATH, may not be set. In practice, the xterms menus in the window manager will perform this function for you when you select the appropriate menu item. Thanks to Manuel Enrique Garcia for drawing this to my attention. In the section Installing the sample desktop, replace the first paragraph with: You'll find all the files described in this chapter on the first CD-ROM (Installation CD-ROM) in the directory /book. Remember that you must mount the CD-ROM before you can access the files--see page 175 for further details. The individual scripts are in the directory /book/scripts, but you'll probably find it easier to install them with the script install-desktop: Thanks to Chris Kaiser for drawing this to my attention. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in the directory /src. Replace the example with: Page 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/src/ssys.[a-d]* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel , Suttipan Limanond and Satwant for finding this one in several small slices. Page 257 ________ Replace the paragraph Berkeley Packet Filter with: pseudo-device bpfilter ______________________ The Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) allows you to capture packets crossing a network interface to disk or to examine them with the tcpdump program. Note that this capability represents a significant compromise of network security. The number after bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes that can use the facility. Not all network interfaces support bpf. In order to use the Berkeley Packet Filter, you must also create the device nodes /dev/bpf0 to /dev/bpf3 (if you're using the default number 4). Current- ly, MAKEDEV doesn't help much--you need to create each device separately: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV bpf0 # ./MAKEDEV bpf1 # ./MAKEDEV bpf2 # ./MAKEDEV bpf3 Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 264 ________ In the list of disk driver flags, add: o Bit 12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode). If this bit is not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode. Page 15 Starting the spooler 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. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' ______________________________________ Add a third point to what you need to know: 3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates. This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. ___________________________________ Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 294 ________ Add the following section: Problems executing Linux binaries _________________________________ One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux binaries is that they usually contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries. They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries. That's not really a problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 2.2.7 understands is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format as well, and of course that's the default. If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on Page 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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 Thanks to Dan Busarow for bringing this to my attention. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the corresponding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: Page 17 Starting the spooler www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 422 ________ 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: Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 423 ________ 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 Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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. Thanks to Sergei S. Laskavy for drawing this to my attention. Page 450: anonymous ftp _______________________ Replace the paragraph starting with Create a user ftp: Create a user ftp, with the anonymous ftp directory as the home directory and the shell /dev/null. Using /dev/null as the shell makes it impossible to log in as user ftp, but does not interfere with the use of anonymous ftp. ftp can be a member of group bin, or you can create a new group ftp by adding the group to /etc/group. See page 138 for more details of adding users, and the man page on page 805 for adding groups. Page 19 Starting the spooler Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for drawing this to my attention. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd. Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very Page 20 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition important: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%. Page 1620 _________ The description of /etc/hosts.lpd erroneously refers to the file /etc/ftpusers. This should be /etc/hosts.lpd, of course. Thanks to Anders Andersson for drawing this to my attention.

I installed on sd2a, expecting to change the boot device to sd2a using the Adaptec BIOS (2940a U). It gets to the boot prompt, and then says "can't find kernel" :-( My guess is that I ought to be able to give it some command there to help it find the kernel, but I'm not sure what that would be. I tried a few variations but none of them seemed to work for me (all said the same thing: can't find kernel). I've got a perfectly working setup using sd0a for Win95, and sd1a for OpenStep (aka NeXTstep ver 4) and wanted to keep FBSD separate on its own drive. Is this possible? I chose "dangerously dedicated" when doing the install, to ignore the disk geometry message which I didn't understand, plus I want to devote this drive (1gig) entirely to FreeBSD.

I am running Freebsd 2.2.7 with apache 1.3.0 and web server run's fine and so does the mail. The only problem I am having is host name translations in the sendmail 8.8.8 program. Example. www.example.net is the main web server page. If I add any new web sites for example www.testing.com and setup mail for that web site like test@testing.com the e-mail from the server translates the return host name of test@example.net in instead of test@testing.com . Is this what happens if you run a Web server and mail server all on the same computer? P.S. I also run a Windows NT web server and use the freebsd for mail. Pointing to the mail server from NT makes mail work right. Example. www.tool.com test@tool.com If anyone has any ideas, Let me know with a example of how maybe I should setup my DNS to fix this problem.

I've got a couple lined up so clarification on this point would be welcome. Thanks. -- Trust the computer industry to shorten Year 2000 to Y2K.

I'm > having trouble deciding which one to use. UNIX is something of a catch-all, referring to a whole class of OS's. I think it's a registered trademark of AT&T, but is usually used to refer to any of the class of operating systems derived from AT&T's System 5 Unix or from UC Berkeley's BSD. IRIS is Silicon Graphic's implementation of Unix, and only runs on Silicon Graphics hardware. FreeBSD is an implementation of Unix derived from BSD release Net-2, and runs primarily on Intel x86 family hardware (386 and better). Other ports are available for FreeBSD, but I'm not sure which platforms are currently available; you can check that out at http://www.freebsd.org. In general, the choice between IRIX and one of the BSDs is pretty easy - if you are running Intel hardware, IRIX is not available. If you are running on SGI hardware, IRIX would be the choice if you were running IRIX-specific applications, otherwise one fo the BSDs (most likely netbsd) would be the superior environment.

I hope my question isn't too dumb..But I promise I'll never ask it again since once I learn something, I almost never forget it. I've downloaded a few ports from the freebsd homepage and am having trouble installing them. Here's what I did and what happened. I collected all the ports in a direcory in a regular user directory (/usr/home/vince). The new directory was named stuff..(ie. /usr/home/vince/stuff). I then did a list of the direcotry and had a list of tar files (emacs.tar, etc.). The first thing I tried to do was untar the files with this command: tar xvf emacs.tar At this point, tar tried to unarchive the files into their destinations but couldn't create the directories. I had to do a 'su' and untar them as the root. Not sure why I couldn't make the directories..All my permisions were 770 or more. Once I had all the files unarchived, I had a bunch of ports in a directory. One of which looked like this: 'hostname'% ll total 4 drwxr-xr-x 4 root 207 512 Dec 26 15:36 devel drwxr-xr-x 3 root 207 512 Dec 25 22:46 editors drwxr-xr-x 4 root 207 512 Dec 26 15:35 emulators drwxr-xr-x 8 root 207 512 Dec 26 15:36 games % pwd /usr/home/vincef/stuff/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/ports % then I moved into the editors directory and then emacs to find this : % cd editors/emacs % ll total 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root 207 910 Sep 14 06:23 Makefile drwxr-xr-x 2 root 207 512 Oct 10 1997 files drwxr-xr-x 2 root 207 512 Oct 10 18:28 patches drwxr-xr-x 2 root 207 512 Sep 14 06:23 pkg % All seemed well until I tried the make command : % make >> emacs-19.34b.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist on this system. >> Attempting to fetch from ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/./. fetch: prep.ai.mit.edu: Unknown host >> Attempting to fetch from ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu/systems/gnu/./. fetch: wuarchive.wustl.edu: Unknown host >> Attempting to fetch from ftp://ftp.kddlabs.co.jp/pub/gnu/./. fetch: ftp.kddlabs.co.jp: Unknown host >> Attempting to fetch from ftp://ftp.digex.net/pub/gnu/./. fetch: ftp.digex.net: Unknown host >> Attempting to fetch from ftp://ftp.univ-evry.fr/pub/gnu/./. fetch: ftp.univ-evry.fr: Unknown host >> Attempting to fetch from ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/gnu/./. fetch: ftp.cdrom.com: Unknown host >> Attempting to fetch from ftp://ftp.duke.edu/pub/gnu/./. fetch: ftp.duke.edu: Unknown host >> Attempting to fetch from ftp://ftp.gamma.ru/pub/gnu/./. fetch: ftp.gamma.ru: Unknown host >> Attempting to fetch from ftp://ftp.nihon-u.ac.jp/pub/gnu/./. fetch: ftp.nihon-u.ac.jp: Unknown host >> Attempting to fetch from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/distfiles//. fetch: ftp.freebsd.org: Unknown host >> Couldn't fetch it - please try to retrieve this >> port manually into /usr/ports/distfiles/ and try again. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. % The same thing happened when I tried make install..

Mind you, if you been changing the SCSI BIOS to make it the boot drive it may now be sd0 (I'm not sure about this, but it may be the case if you set it up so the BIOS finds it as the _only_ boot disk) > I tried a few variations but none of them seemed to work for me (all said > the same thing: can't find kernel). > You could try ``sd(2,a)?'' and different variations, e.g. ``2:sd(2,a)?'' etc. The ``?'' makes it list the files in the root directory of the specified drive/partition.

The last two lines indicate a problem with your CD-ROM. What kind is it? You'll probably be a lot better off with 2.2.8; we've been chasing compatibility problems with IDE (ATAPI) CD-ROMs for a long time, and it's quite possible that it's been fixed since. You can also check that the CD-ROM is in the primary slave position, which used to make a difference in older versions of FreeBSD.

There's been some debate on if PCI modem cards are supported. Some of can get them to work, some can't. I fear that with a no-name modem, it's going to be a hit or miss. Pretty much all you need is the PNP driver compiled into your kernal. After that it's a simple matter of configuring PPP.

The 2.2.7-RELEASE CD-ROM is -RELEASE. There are no -STABLE CD-ROMs, because -STABLE keeps changing. -CURRENT CD-ROMs are called snaphots. > This question dues to i got src-2.2.08* and then a rebuild the world, my > itentd is to update from 2.2.7 to 2.2.8, but my uname -s output > indicates that i am runnning 2.2.7-stable. Should not it be 2.2.8 ? Yes, it should. This information is stored in /usr/src/sys/conf/newvers.sh: check what you have there. You don't say how you got the 2.2.8 sources, but I suppose it was via cvsup. What tag did you use? If newvers.sh is wrong, there's a chance that you didn't update other stuff as well. You should check your log files (you did log the updates, didn't you?) to check that you supped the correct version.

It's probably never going to be possible to re-probe everything without crashing the system: each piece of hardware has its own problems, and each driver would require major modifications to support this feature. On the other hand, it *is* possible to reprobe disks with the CAM driver in 3.0.

OK. It would have helped me to know the exact URLs, but I've been looking around on ftp.FreeBSD.org, and in /.2/FreeBSD/CTM/src-2.2 I find that src-2.2-08* date from July 17 to October 14. 800xEmpty dates from July 17, so you have the -STABLE branch as of October 14. At this time, it was 2.2.7. To get up to date, you should also pick up src-2.2-09*, which currently goes up to 0966 (today).

You have two choices: 1. Get 2.2-0900xEmpty and 2.2-09*, and apply as before. 2. Get only 2.2-09*, and apply to the tree you currently have. The second alternative is much less work: 2.2-0900xEmpty is 36 MB, whereas 2.2-09* is only about 1.5 MB. In general, don't throw away your ctm files: if something goes wrong, you'll be glad to be able to rebuild the source tree from them. I had to do that a couple of times when I was using ctm.
