I'm just playing with an initial install of FreeBSD for the first time and had noticed the way ports polluted /usr/local which I have always considered to be *mine*. I've noted that BSDI use /usr/contrib for the sort of stuff that FreeBSD puts in /usr/local, and that seems more sensible to me if there is really a reason not to put these things in /usr/bin. Anyway, my question is: is there some way to have the ports put into some other prefix than /usr/local so that it can be used as expected? Or do we have to reinvent /usr/local with some less intuitive name? -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Jan 3 04:00:39 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id EAA17115 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 3 Jan 1999 04:00:39 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from penguin.wise.edt.ericsson.se (penguin-ext.wise.edt.ericsson.se [194.237.142.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id EAA17098 for ; Sun, 3 Jan 1999 04:00:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from per@erix.ericsson.se) Received: from super.du.etx.ericsson.se (per@super.du.etx.ericsson.se [130.100.34.16]) by penguin.wise.edt.ericsson.se (8.9.0/8.9.0/WIREfire-1.2) with ESMTP id NAA01609; Sun, 3 Jan 1999 13:00:07 +0100 (MET) Received: (from per@localhost) by super.du.etx.ericsson.se (8.9.1/8.9.1/erix-1.6) id NAA26033; Sun, 3 Jan 1999 13:00:07 +0100 (MET) Date: Sun, 3 Jan 1999 13:00:07 +0100 (MET) Message-Id: <199901031200.NAA26033@super.du.etx.ericsson.se> From: Per Hedeland To: randyk@ccsales.com Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG, sendmail-questions@sendmail.org Subject: Re: Recursion, Excessive In-Reply-To: <3.0.5.32.19990103011832.00cc0150@ccsales.com> References: <3.0.5.32.19990103011832.00cc0150@ccsales.com> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG "Randy A.

Well, if you have hand-modified your sendmail.cf instead of building it from a .mc file with m4, or have some rewriting rules embedded in the .mc, the most likely cause is that you have made an error in the rules causing an infinite rewrite recursion. Another possibility, if you have a m4-built sendmail.cf but are using the virtusertable feature, is that you have a virtusertable entry like: user@domain where 'domain' is in class w. This will cause the result of the virtuser lookup to be looked up again, with the potential for causing an infinite loop. The general rule is to only use simple unqualified usernames in the RHS of the virtusertable, unless it refers to a "remote" domain. --Per Hedeland To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Jan 3 04:47:19 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id EAA22477 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 3 Jan 1999 04:47:19 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from www.inx.de (www.inx.de [195.21.255.251]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id EAA22461; Sun, 3 Jan 1999 04:47:15 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jnickelsen@acm.org) Received: by www.inx.de (Smail3.2.0.96inx) from [195.21.163.120] (195.21.163.120) with esmtp id ; Sun, 3 Jan 1999 13:45:39 +0100 (MET) X-Sender: jn@berlin.snafu.de Message-Id: In-Reply-To: <368E1EFB.918A2BF7@uk.radan.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Date: Sun, 3 Jan 1999 00:58:52 +0100 To: Mark Ovens From: Juergen Nickelsen Subject: Re: Accessing NTFS partitions Cc: chat@FreeBSD.ORG, questions@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-uk-users Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 At 14:28 +0100 02.01.1999, Mark Ovens wrote on freebsd-chat: >The driver, whilst working fine, is somewhat inconsistent in it's >use of long and short (8.3) filenames, e.g. ls on my system lists >both ``PROGRA~1'' and ``Program Files'' in the (NTFS) root dir.

Thinking in Unix terms, both the long and the short name are links to the same object, so if you cd to a directory you end up in the same directory regardless which link you use. Other than a Unix directory, though, it has not a single name, but two, but you want to know the long name.

If you do this, I'd also chmod it to something like 4550, chgrp it to something like 'cdrom', and add people who you trust to use the cdrom drive in group 'cdrom'. Might work, or it might not. sudo (in the ports) could be another option. -- 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 Sun Jan 3 06:56:29 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA02085 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 3 Jan 1999 06:56:29 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from actcom.co.il (actcom.co.il [192.114.47.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA02071 for ; Sun, 3 Jan 1999 06:56:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from baum@actcom.co.il) Received: from localhost by actcom.co.il with SMTP (8.9.1a/actcom-0.2) id QAA18013 for ; Sun, 3 Jan 1999 16:55:47 +0200 (EET) (rfc931-sender: baum@localhost) Date: Sun, 3 Jan 1999 16:55:34 +0200 (EET) From: Alexander Indenbaum To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Sun automount -> Amd (4.4BSD Automounter) map convertor 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!

It works okay as root, but as non-root, finger says "Permission denied" when doing a "finger" or "finger valid_user". When I do a "finger nonexistant-user", I get "nonexistant-user: no such user". I checked the permission of /var/run/utmp, /var/log/lastlog, /etc/pwd.db, /etc/passwd and so on. They are world-readable, and its parent directories are accessible. I've removed some users, like 'uucp', 'pop', and 'xten', but see no reason why this should be causing the problem. Let me know what I did wrong here. -d.

Once that completes I am able to partition the disks (2 IDE). I have a network NE2000 compatible card that it seems to recognize. I attempt to point to another PC running PC NFS server with the drive and directory exported. The bin.* (ie. bin.aa, bin.ab) files are located in this directory. When I choose install using NFS, the FreeBSD PC fails to recognize the ethernet card because it doesn't ask for TCP/IP configuration. It only asks that when I choose SLIP or PPP from com ports and of course that doesn't work. What do you think is the problem? How can I correct it? Thanks, Ian D.

I use egcs-1.1.1 (on which pgcc is based) to compile most of my stuff here, including the world. There are a few small "gotchas", namely bits of the system which will not compile (for me): lib/libc lib/libc_r lib/libstand games/rogue libexec/rtld-elf games/bs gnu/lib/libg++ gnu/lib/libstdc++ gnu/usr.bin/groff sys/boot/ sys/modules I have a small script which recompiles these using CC and CFLAGS and the system gcc, and then just do my usual make depend/make all -j4 cycle to do the rest. The kernel is also not compilable with egcs due to FreeBSD-specific extensions in our gcc compiler. There are the odd one or two ports I've come across which can't be compiled using egcs, but for the most part it works very nicely. A quick-n-dirty benchmark: # dd if=/dev/random of=/usr2/bigfile bs=1024k count=30 # cp /usr2/bigfile /usr2/bigfile2 # /usr/bin/time gzip-486 -9 /usr2/bigfile 26.06 real 20.46 user 1.17 sys # /usr/bin/time gzip-pent -9 /usr2/bigfile2 23.12 real 18.58 user 1.20 sys i.e. a speedup of about 12% gzip-486 was compiled with the stock gcc, -O2 -mno-486 gzip-pentium was compiled with egcs-1.1.1 from the ports collection, -O2 -mpentium -march-pentium Incidentally, the dd command spammed the heck out of my machine..good DoS, anyone? :) Kris > > Thanks, > > Bill > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message > ----- (ASP) Microsoft Corporation (MSFT) announced today that the release of its productivity suite, Office 2000, will be delayed until the first quarter of 1901.

One partitioned HD and FreeBSD 2.2.7 later, I discovered exactly what a WinModem is. No flames, please, I'm horrified enough at the concept. Can anyone reccomend a decent and possibly inexpensive modem choice for PPP in FBSD 2.2.7? Just looking for some guidance re: model and vendor. All advice is appreciated.

Just set PREFIX to what you want (on the make(1) command line or in the environment): $ cd /usr/ports/foo/bar $ make PREFIX=/opt install (Ports are *supposed* to honor PREFIX and work properly.

Please, excuse me my poor English. Here is my problem: First I got FreeBSD v.2.2.6 I need to mount my IDE CD-ROM, so I give a command: # mount /cdrom or # mount -t cd9660 /dev/wcd0c /cdrom or the same with mount_cd9660 (except of option -t of course) And every try I get an answer: (mount_)cd9660: /dev/wcd0c: Invalid argument After this I cut some code from sysinstall (where it mounts CD) and compile my little program. It uses system call mount(2) with same arguments /dev/wcd0c and /cdrom - and it worked! And finally, I got v2.2.8 source and built it (P75, 32M, 7 hours) and tried to mount CD with all the same system tools (mount and mount_cd9660 - the result was the same : Invalid argument). Terrible, but my little program now did not work (and sysinstal also do not mount CD-ROM) - mount(2) returns error condition (EINVAL). Please help me if you can with these 'Invalid argument' Thank you! Dan Shebunin P.S.

That's enough cross-posting :^) Secondly, if you take out the -elf and the -fformat-extensions out you'll get a bunch of warnings, but things should compile. As far as I know, everything but libstdc++/libg++ should compile. And those two are replaced by egcs's own c++ lib anyways. Thirdly, William, egcs/pgcc are relatively untested in FreeBSD. Perhaps you should stick with gcc 2.7.x. - alex To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Jan 3 12:05:10 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA01776 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 3 Jan 1999 12:05:10 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from heather.greatbasin.com (heather.greatbasin.net [207.228.35.41]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA01769 for ; Sun, 3 Jan 1999 12:05:08 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dan@jgl.reno.nv.us) Received: from danco (rno-max5-47.gbis.net [207.228.61.111]) by heather.greatbasin.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) with SMTP id MAA21148; Sun, 3 Jan 1999 12:04:43 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <02ea01be3754$3aa00a20$6f3de4cf@danco.home> From: "Dan O'Connor" To: , "Martin Reemer" Subject: Re: Modem reccomendation Date: Sun, 3 Jan 1999 12:03:18 -0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3155.0 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3155.0 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG -----Original Message----- From: Martin Reemer To: FreeBSD-Questions@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Sunday, January 03, 1999 9:18 AM Subject: Modem reccomendation >One partitioned HD and FreeBSD 2.2.7 later, I discovered exactly what a >WinModem is.

This works via icmp so the following line disables it totally: "ipfw add 1 reject icmp from any to 212.242.22.0/24" <- being my subnet However - this makes it impossible for me to ping others - and that wasen't intended so I tried this: "ipfw add 1 reject icmp from any to 212.242.22.0/24 7" this is still not possible. When trying to reject or deny icmp no port can be specified, and if I deny or reject all trafic ( tcp/udp) to my port 7 it is still possible to ping my computer. My kernel has of course been compiled to support ipfw. Can anybody help me? Best Regards Lasse L.

The "problem" is that a monitoring process logs in to a FreeBSD box every 5 minutes or so, which means that Every Day about 500 wtmp entries are created just for this monitoring process. They'd like to stop logging wtmp records for this login user (only), just because of the amount of space it takes up. I didn't see a way to do this from login.conf, and I read the man pages for login and expected to find the wtmp logging in /usr/bin/login, but it's not (obviously) being done from there. Ideas?

Most things compile with egcs (I'm using egcs-2.92.07), and it is more stable than any pgcc I've run (although less than the system gcc), but a few kernel files (eg dev/ppbus/vpoio.c) don't compile with it. I've successfully built a kernel by using gcc only for these files and egcs for the rest though.

External modems are the best way to go. BUT, if you're like me and can't spare the extra power plug, internal is still a must. The PPP program is optimized for USR, and Supra modems. I'm currently using a knock-off brand called Jaton with no problems, but would highly suggest a Zoom over USR or Supra.

Not sure if I'd like to replace gcc, especially for kernel, but I'm using pgcc (both C, and C++, and g77) for userland here, mostly as a matter of speed-up (yep, I know that's not what egcs is intended for, but all the same some of us need fast code).

I ftp ftp.cdrom.com and get the current port. For example, if you want xplot, move your existing /usr/ports/math/xplot to /usr/ports/math/xplot.old, go to ftp.cdrom.com and get xplot.tar from /.2/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/ports/math and un-tar it in /usr/ports/math. Then run make on the new port, and voila! note: xplot.tar won't exist on ftp.cdrom.com, but when you ask for it, it'll be made on the fly, and you'll get the xplot directory with everything in it -- 1.38 KB. Also, your new port may be dependent on other *new* ports, resulting in an exponentially growing task. What's more, it may require newer versions of other files, such as shared libraries, which you'll also have to get. After messing around like this, I decided to use only the ports included on the CD that I installed from. If I want a newer version of a port, I'll just wait until I upgrade the whole ports tree and the system. Everything seems to work much better when it's all off the same CD. > A related question: what is the meaning of "B-deps" and "R-deps" > when you do "make print-index" in /usr/ports?

It looks as if you haven't started the daemon. See the addendum to page 219 of the book: 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.

This works via icmp so the following line > disables it totally: Assuming you just want to reject echo (and are allowing everything else), then you should note that echo is 8, not 7. So the line should be (for 3.0-RELEASE; if you're running an earlier version, it might be different): ipfw add 1 reject icmp from any to 212.242.22./24 icmptypes 8 This works (well, with my ip addresses in it) for me - the remote host gets "host unreachable" messages. But it's better to work firewalls the other way - deny everything, and then allow the ones you need to let through. So you really want something like: ipfw add 10 allow icmp from any to 212.242.22./24 icmptypes 0,3,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18 ipfw add 20 allow icmp from 212.242.22./24 to any ipfw add 30 deny icmp from any to any I allowed the inbound set I normally allow, minus echo. You'll may want to change that. I also allow arbitrary outbound icmp, which you might also want to change. But the above is better than denying 8 and allowing everything else!

I like /usr/mine personally, but it's a matter of taste. :) The whole /usr/local idea is widespread, it's not just FreeBSD. Better to establish a totally unique location for your stuff that no one else is likely to use than it is to try and fight the battle every time it comes up.

I generally change the relevant info in the makefile, do a 'make patch' to make sure that the thing patches cleanly, then go from there.

Most likely this is a problem with the card itself. First, check that the pins on the monitor cable are all straight. If one is off just a little it can be causing problems. Plug it in nice and and tight and screw it down. Wiggle the cable see if you can duplicate the problem. If not then turn the resolution down a notch or two. If it continues to happen, replace the card. There has been a lot of weird problems with the Virge/DX chipset.

I've never seen this particular problem. Could it be a bad card, and/or a bad cable?

(Would be long to explain it) Um - you mean MacOS (which had this feature before MS did) was caused by M$? And yeah, I think it's a feature. Having used such for 10 years (on AmigaDOS, which inherited it from TRIPOS), I find myself doing "ls | grep -i stuff" an awfull lot.... AmigaDOS even managed to handle internationalizing it sanely.

Why? Remember that you shouldn't be root much, you should do most things as another user. And you mean the "-A" option, they are different, -A doesn't show "." and "..", while -a does.

The BSDI upgrade process stinks because if you are doing your job, you are updating packages like apache and such as needed and then when it comes time to upgrade the OS, the upgraded software ends up putting up versions of software that is ancient compared to what you have previously installed. FreeBSD upgrades are fairly nice. the only time I've had this problem with FreeBSD is with sendmail... I've installed 8.9.1, 2.2.8 re-installed 8.8.whatever... now the nice thing was that I put the source tree for sendmail under /usr/local so all I had to do was go into the sendmail tree and do another reinstall... everything else was perfect. I like BSDI just fine other than the upgrade procedures, and its a fine OS and performs well, but they could definately make some massive improvements in their upgrade methodology -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Studded Sent: Sunday, January 03, 1999 8:26 PM To: Michael Maxwell Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: /usr/local/bin [was: Re: executable scripts] On Sun, 3 Jan 1999, Michael Maxwell wrote: > On Sun, Jan 03, 1999 at 08:58:43PM +1000, Greg Black wrote: > > I'm just playing with an initial install of FreeBSD for the > > first time and had noticed the way ports polluted /usr/local > > which I have always considered to be *mine*.

I like /usr/mine personally, but it's a matter of taste. :) The whole /usr/local idea is widespread, it's not just FreeBSD.

It's very easy to automate uploading/downloading/whatever under the standard Berkeley FTP client. Do some RTFM'ing and look in particular at the use of the .netrc file.

It's a bug in the TX chipset. (I assume TX, the problem is most prevalent there.) It's a hardware issue and is totally unrelated to FreeBSD in any way.

Because SCO Unix is/was made by a bunch of guys out to make money. Hence the word 'commercial.' > It is better? More things to do with? From my view point, no. FreeBSD supports a heck of a lot more. Granted I've not used SCO for a while. (Is it even commerically available anymore?) > We are a ISP that uses FreeBSD in our servers, but other ISP tell people > that we use free downloaded software form the Internet, and since that how > can we provide security or stability. I know FreeBSD is good, very good I > like it a lot. They also say 'why you don't buy a "real" Unix software, like > those you pay for?'. Pretty simple, point to them www.yahoo.com and www.cdrom.com Two of the busiet web sites/ftp servers in the world. Both run FreeBSD. It's a simple matter of taste and what runs for you best. Your competitors are spreading disinformation either through argonance or ignorance. Besides, every version of UNIX is developed from a 'free' software. Tell your customers that you use FreeBSD because support is free, it's supported by hundreds if not thousands of profesionals through this list, and in the long run it keeps your costs down which allows you to provide more features, scalibility and security for your customers.

IMAO, those who say that cannot really know either SCO or FBSD. When FBSD/NBSD/etc. first came out, I would have to say that SCO was more stable, but the later releases of FBSD are certainly in the same league if not better. I've worked with both, and it seems like applications compile and install more cleanly on FBSD than on SCO. With SCO, lots of the stuff that comes with FBSD is extra, such as the c compiler. ;-) Also, there are lots of restricted (like 2-user) SCO releases around. The unlimited user license under SCO is (was) very expensive. The later FBSD versions can also run SCO binaries. I know of one case where an Informix SE license was moved from SCO to FBSD with very little hassle. They also tell me (the ubiquitous 'they') that Oracle runs fine under FBSD as well.

IMO, first of all because SCO was available for Intel platforms when serious free unixes weren't. Lots of companies installed SCO and now it wouldn't be simple to switch platform... so many companies keep on giving money to SCO to update their systems. For new users... there's a lot of misinformation. ;-) We use almost everywhere FreeBSD, but we have a SCO machine to run an old software made specifically for SCO. I'll try to port that software to FreeBSD as soon as I'll have time. >It is better? More things to do with? I work everyday with FreeBSD, SCO and Solaris. FreeBSD is better, from my point of view. First of all, System V unixes are a mess regarding configuration and management with respect to BSDs. SCO and Solaris are reliable, but no more than FreeBSD... and FreeBSD is faster. >We are a ISP that uses FreeBSD in our servers, but other ISP tell people >that we use free downloaded software form the Internet, and since that how >can we provide security or stability.

I don't think you can prevent them from seeing it, but you can prevent them from deleting it. If "somefile" is the file in question, do this as root: # chflags sunlnk somefile The user can own the file and the directory it's in, but he won't be able to delete the file. Root won't even be able to delete it unless he changes the flag back. man chflags for more details.

I run Data General, SCO, & FreeBsd's here at work, all are rock-solid. But the only boxes I expose to the outside are FreeBSD, simply due to the availability of the source to patch any security problems. With DG and SCO I'd have to wait for them to fix and release the binary. As a matter of taste, I'd drop the SCO boxes in a heart-beat if I could get my software vendor to agree to support FreeBSD (but then that would cut into _their_ sales). > I know FreeBSD is good, very good I > like it a lot.

SCO has the reputation of being somewhat unstable. In all fairness to SCO, I think lots of this has to do with the customer's misconfiguration. I've seen many SCO installations that were unstable, but were improved significantly by doing some simple kernel tweaking, especially in the network area.

I am one of those who still maintains one legacy ISC system. (Does Sun still sell/support this, or even admit it exists ?? ;-) It runs side by side with two FBSD machines. Of the three, the ISC requires far more daily handholding. One of my dreams/goals is to get everything on that box moved over to FBSD, but there are both hardware and software complexities. When it comes to installing a new port of (whatever) I usually figure that it will take 2-3 times as much time to get it up and stable on the ISC box as it will on the FBSD machines.

We're moving it from Solaris to FreeBSD, so as you understand, I can't simply swap the hard drives... Anyway, the problem is thus: I have about 200M worth of content in one of the virtual servers, and only about 65M free space anywhere on the box. So I can't tar it up and move it. We have ftpd turned off on all boxes on the network, and use scp. I really don't want to scp every file (these are html files that make up 200m, you can imagine how many of them there must be!) separately...

If you don't even have enough space for that, you can do something like: tar -cf - ./docs | ssh freebsd.host.com '(cd /document/directory; tar -xvf = -)' (Assuming you have ssh installed, you can try rsh otherwise.) This copies the directory tree without requiring any new space at all on the Solaris box. Note that I didn't bother compressing above.

I've never done anything with networking hardware before, so Goto 3Com's website and find the 3c507 Etherdisk. You need to reconfigure that card for the machine. Don't _ever_ trust a card you haven't programmed yourself. That card can and will (if programmed to do so last time) take a 64K chunk from 0xc0000 to 0xeffff.

If you turn off the services thatt would allow the customer to change their website ie: telnet/ftp/samba then you can just stay up late one night, and use ncftp3 to mget -R /home or /export/home, whatever. ncftp3 is the only client version of ncftp that i have seen do the -R correct (recursive get, and makes directories if they don't exist). One thing I don't remember is if it preserves permissions. If it does, then just take a password list and do this: #!/bin/sh awk -F: '{print $1}' /etc/passwd > usernames for user in `cat usernames` do chown -R $username /home/$username (or /usr/home, whatever) done or something to that effect.... anyway. that's how we did it. We took all of our services off a few sparcs, and put them on some x86 boxen. started on a sunday evening, finished early into the monday morning.

I have the 3c507 DOS executable that programs the card, and I have done so. Maybe the problem is that I don't know quite what "64K chunk from 0xc0000 to 0xeffff" means. I assume it's a peice of memory specified in hexidecimal, but I don't have any clue how to determine which peices are available for me to use. Also, I don't really know specifically what "port address" means, although I can assign them and I do know which ones are available in that case. Anyone know of a good book or online docs that explain this kind of thing? Anyway, would you suggest I just try many different 16K chuncks of RAMbase until the card is found by the kernel? Kenneth J.

I own a Creative PC-DVD Dxr2 drive (the second generation 2x DVD, 24x CD-rom drive). It functions perfectly as an ATAPI CD-ROM under any release of FreeBSD I have tried (2.2.x and 3.0). That is, ISO9660 or audio discs work very well. As fas as DVD discs are concerned (i.e. movies), I'm not aware of any driver/software support for the decoder card under FreeBSD (or any UNIX/Linux flavour, for that matter). Creative certainly doesn't release X Windows versions of their movie player anyway. :) So... To answer your question as best as I can... ANY DVD-ROM (and, likely, even the new DVD-RAM) drives should function at least as CD-ROM drives under FreeBSD, so long as it sticks with a standard interface (IDE/SCSI) and I/O methods. If you plan on running Win98, however, you will certainly have no problem playing all DVDs (games/movies/other multimedia) under Win98, and using the drive as a basic CD-ROM under FreeBSD. Hope that helps at least a little bit :) Ryan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jan 4 14:10:21 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA12422 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 14:10:21 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from o-o.org (o-o.org [207.252.201.100]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA12402 for ; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 14:10:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from licia@o-o.org) Received: from localhost (root@localhost) by o-o.org (8.8.8/8.8.7) with SMTP id QAA13923 for ; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 16:09:42 -0600 (CST) Date: Mon, 4 Jan 1999 16:09:42 -0600 (CST) From: Licia To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: are there reserved groups?

This contradicts the theory that all such hangs are not the result of a faulty state machine, but the result of lost RPC packets not being correctly retried after the RPC ack but before the RPC response (this is a well known protocol design error -- in fact, it is the source of the FIN-WAIT-2 problem in TCP). With the client and server the same machine, and using the loopback interface, it can't be "lost packets". > Now onto a mountd question.

I was under the impression that an empty /etc/exports would start the daemons, but not export anything. If things are getting exported, then this is broken. The problem is probably in the per FS code that handles NFS export notification. This code should be moved to a higher level, but that would require moving the mapping of the mounted FS's to a higher level. In the current code, the mount point covering and the NFS export code are in the per FS mount code (hence the inability to NFS export some FS types. Basically, this would mean that the FS specific mount code should not know where in the hierarchy the FS is being mounted, and the vnode covering should be handled in the upper level code. Effectively, this is a pretty trivial change to make, and it greatly simplifies the root mount code at the same time. The result is all FS's are NFS exportable and all FS's can be mounted as the root FS. The only complication is that FS's with a "last mounted on" field (like FFS) would need a VOP_LASTMOUNTEDON() to allow the setting of the string into the superblock after the mapping into the hierarchy. > 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. This is a security consideration. Basically, if you specify a subdirectory, then you provide an nfsnode that represents an inode not at the root of the device. The problem with this is that you are then able to start a sequence at a mountpoint other than the root. This can effectively defeat user/group based protections on directories that depend on the remote user traversing to the directory from the root directory of the exported FS. There is actually a CERT advisory (againse SunOS 4.1.2, I think) about this problem. You are intentionally defeating a number of security protections (three, from memory) by allowing inferior directories with inode numbers other than 2 to be accessed directly.

Dear FreeBSD,
    When I inserted the two lines with my nameserver addresses into /etc/resolv.conf, I got no results.  I still got the "Host name lookup failure" error when I tried the 'make install' command to install KDE.  My /etc/resolv.conf looks like this:
               
domain    earthlink.net
nameserver 207.217.126.81
nameserver 207.217.77.82
 
I was also already connected to the internet as root using ppp.  Did I do something wrong?
 
-
 
Did you check the files under /etc/namedb/????
 
You could check on the freebsd.org web page also, and this link also will give information on that...http://www.freebsddiary.com/freebsd/dns.htm
 
The book of Freebsd also has a chapter on DNS.
 
Good luck,
 
Miguel.

While looking in the ftpd.c I noticed that there is indeed a command line option for setting umask that isn't mentioned in the man page: case 'u': { long val = 0; val = strtol(optarg, &optarg, 8); if (*optarg != '\0' || val < 0) warnx("bad value for -u"); else defumask = val; break; } Cool, but I'm really looking for a way to set umask on a per user basis. I would imagine that wu-ftp probably has this ability, but I would prefer to stick with the standard daemon. Is there an easy way of doing this with the standard daemon that I'm not aware of?

I've used SCO a lot (XENIX, UNIX System V.3.2 (``Open deathtrap'') and UnixWare). XENIX was a good system in its time (early 80s), but it outlived its time. SCO UNIX (ODT) was too non-standard (we mainly preferred Inactive UNIX). UnixWare was originally Univel, then Novell. All the systems have performance problems, but I didn't find them overly unreliable, with the exception of UnixWare 1.0, but that's more likely to be the number than the name.

A shared library saves on disk and memory usage. Only one copy of the shared-library will exist in memory whenever one or more processes use it. A static library (ie .a suffix) on the other hand is basically a collection of object files that the linker will use to extract required files/functions to include into the completed binary. Statically compiled programs will therefore end up bigger than shared-library linked ones, and have a slightly bigger memory-footprint. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Jonathan Chen | Opportunites are seldom labeled --------------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jan 4 16:05:31 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA27430 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 16:05:31 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mailgw02.execpc.com (mailgw02.execpc.com [169.207.3.78]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA27423 for ; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 16:05:27 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from fpawlak@execpc.com) Received: from quark.feynman.com (ferengal-2-184.mdm.mke.execpc.com [169.207.130.122]) by mailgw02.execpc.com (8.9.0) id SAA13379; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 18:05:00 -0600 (CST) Received: (from fpawlak@localhost) by quark.feynman.com (8.9.2/8.9.2) id SAA12250; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 18:05:38 -0600 (CST) Message-ID: <19990104180538.B12224@feynman.com> Date: Mon, 4 Jan 1999 18:05:38 -0600 From: Frank Pawlak To: Charles Williams Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Tried Nameserver Addresses References: <001401be3834$e4c62bc0$c1301e26@williams> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93.2i In-Reply-To: <001401be3834$e4c62bc0$c1301e26@williams>; from Charles Williams on Mon, Jan 04, 1999 at 05:52:20PM -0500 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Mon, Jan 04, 1999 at 05:52:20PM -0500, Charles Williams wrote: > Dear FreeBSD, > When I inserted the two lines with my nameserver addresses into /etc/resolv.conf, I got no results.

I'm running a celeron A (mendocino with 128kb sync cache) and it's a real cheap alternative to a PII plus you can teach it SMP with a simple hardware hack.

It's a hardware issue and is totally unrelated to >FreeBSD in any way. Er...no. I think the keyboard controller chip is separate from the chipset (pretty sure I'm right). It's just motherboard-model/manufacturer dependent. I have an Intel Endeavor motherboard (FX chipset, not that it matters) which works fine with the cheapo console switch I'm using. I used to use a non-name 486 board which had to have the keyboard switched to it for the OS boot. After that I could switch away and back. I suggest you get the more expensive switchbox anyways. I have a cheapo mechanical switchbox that's losing some pins on the switch. It's nearly impossible to get accurate colors any more...I'm usually missing red or green or blue (not too bad because I don't run X on either computer). At work, we have a 4-position switchbox (same manufacturer) which has only been in use a few months and I can't get all of the keyboard signal lines to switch properly. (my switchbox at home has been in use for over a year now) Get yourself a nice non-mechanical switchbox. You'll end up doing so in the future when the cheap one becomes unusable. --Ludwig Pummer ( ludwigp@bigfoot.com ) ICQ UIN: 692441 ( ludwigp@email.com ) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jan 4 17:06:00 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA04325 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 16:59:22 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from horst.bfd.com (horst.bfd.com [12.9.219.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA04316 for ; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 16:59:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ejs@bfd.com) Received: from HARLIE.bfd.com (bastion.bfd.com [12.9.219.14]) by horst.bfd.com (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id QAA00490; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 16:58:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ejs@bfd.com) Date: Mon, 4 Jan 1999 16:58:34 -0800 (PST) From: "Eric J.

But the Celeron is a poor choice of processor, since it has no > cache. You'd be better off with AMD or Cyrix. The new Celerons have a 128K cache in them that is run at clock speed, rather than half-clock, which makes up at least a little bit for the smaller size. In fact, the cacheless Celerons have already disappeared from my normal supply sources. Now, the K6-2 has a L1 cache half the size of the Celeron's L2 cache, and the K6-3 should be quite impressive with on-chip L2 cache, so I'd agree that the AMD family seems to be better than the Celeron in all non-FPU areas, though not as overclockable. On the other hand, I haven't seen anything from Cyrix recently that matches the performance of either, though I haven't kept up well at all. Then again, I'm a stick in the mud, I'm planning on sticking with my Dual PPro 200/512K L2 cache system until I decide that that isn't enough speed.

I only use ssh for server access And I have done binary file restores from the live file system cd to the following: /bin /sbin /usr/bin /usr/sbin /usr/libexec Is there any other file areas (binaries) I need to restore? I have run diff's on all of the above files and they are good. Also do you have any ideas of how they got in. I believe they have been in for a while now.

Used MS-DOS 5.0 floppy to partition this HD. Then ran it a year or so with an empty 512MB first partition before I broke down, purchased NT 4.0 and installed there. FreeBSD's boot manager (BootEasy?) lets me select the partition to be booted. Other than the fact NT rebooted about 12 times before the installation was completed, I didn't do anything special.

IMHO /usr/ports/print/a2ps43-letter/ is the way to go. Old version 4.3 is much smaller and simpler than the latest and greatest do-all. You probably want to print your 132 columns sideways in landscape mode. By default a2ps4.3 prints a frame around your text, headers, footers, page numbers, time stamps, etc. Possibly more than you might wish. The latest a2ps does similar but when it first came out I was turned off by its size (over 1.5 MB vs 40k) and didn't like its similar but different format on the printed page. Ghostscript is a good idea to install too. Lets you look at the output before chopping down trees. With that said, you probably want to try both versions of a2ps also. Same price.

Is this something worht working on. I would kill or die for this functionality. Well, OK, maybe that's an exaggeration, but you get the idea. I use Solaris every day at work and have become extremely accomsted to using the /net/hostname/path convention.

The current version is 8.9.2. Go into /sendmail-8.9.2/src and execute sh Build. This will build the sendmail binary in the obj-freebsd dir. Rename the old binary in /usr/sbin and move the new one over to that dir. Reading the Readme's is a good idea. Work up a new .mc file in /cf/cf in the sendmail dir and use m4 to build the sendmail.cf file. In stall the new sendmail.cf in /etc. Touch sendmail.cw and you should be on your way. If you need more details, I can try to help out. Can send you my .mc file from which you can construct you'rs. BTW, I have assumed that you are working with a stand alone workstation. IF you are setting up a server, my method may not work. Good luck.

The code works nicely under Solaris so I figure I must be doing something correctly! However, under freeBSD, release 2.2.6, I'm experiencing the following problems and would like your advice: 1). I declare global variables: pthread_mutex_t mutex = PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER; pthread_cond_t cond = PTHREAD_COND_INITIALIZER; and get these errors during the build: "devserv.cc:69: `PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER' was not declared in this scope devserv.cc:70: `PTHREAD_COND_INITIALIZER' was not declared in this scope " My compile/link command line is: CC -D_THREAD_SAFE -o devserv file1.cc file2.cc ... -lc_r Yes, I double-checked that I am including According to Dave Butenhof's "Programming with POSIX Threads" book, static initialization of mutexes and condition variables should be ok. So why is freeBSD, rel. 2.2.6 forcing me into dynamic initialization? Is my build command wrong or incomplete? Look like a problem with my environment? 2). The app is a server that takes requests from remote clients and communicates with serial devices (e.g., cameras) to carry out these requests (e.g., pan or tilt a camera). So I have several devices attached to my computer and I listen on several network sockets for remote requests. I use threads to do blocked recvfrom()'s on each socket, signal when a request is added to a list, and do the typical stuff (e.g., main() gets the signal and processes the request). No problems here. But this scenario forces me to terminate only when user types a contrl character (cntl-C, e.g.) or if I blow it and seg fault or bus error... So, in a single- threaded version, I had a nice signal handler to catch SIGINT, SIGSEGV, etc., and before exiting, turning off the cameras, one at a time. In the threaded version, I have been advised NOT to use a signal handler. Rather, create a thread to wait for the signals in a sigset_t variable (and call sigwait()). And mask out the signals from all the other threads that you do NOT want to catch them. Fine. So I copied D. Butenhof's source code (page 228) from his book to see how this was done. It works great under Solaris. Under freeBSD, at least for version 2.2.6, sigwait() doesn't seem to work -- I never get the SIGINT and need to terminate with the manual "ps" and "kill" commands. Is this a bug under release 2.2.6? 3). I looked at pthread.h to see how pthread_t is defined and did see it typedef'd as a pointer to a structure. But searching through all the headers did not reveal the definition of that pthread_t structure. And I couldn't find sigwait() in either the man pages nor the headers. However, the following showed the sigwait() function to be defined and located in -lc_r -- mperry@zippy(87)>nm -p libc_r.so.3.0 | grep sigwait libc_r.so.3.0:00000280 T _sigwait Where then is sigwait() defined/documented?

I have a pair of nice non-mechanical switchboxes which do all the keyboard-spoofing to all hosts and all that (i.e., if a machine boots, it "sees" a keyboard even if it's not the one switched to the actual keyboard). This one (Belkin OmniView) is cascadable so that you can put up to 64 systems on a single console, like this: _______ [monitor]-----| | [keyboard]----|_______| | | | | _______ [cpu1]__| | | |_____| | [cpu2]____| | |_______| [cpu3]______| | | | | [cpu4]_______________| | | | [cpu5]_________________| | | [cpu6]___________________| | [cpu7]_____________________| but it's not behaving like the manual claims it should either. I get the same "keyboard loss" problem when switching to any of the CPUs on the 2nd-tier switchbox. I have to power-cycle the 1st-tier box to get them back. So nothing's a perfect solution, it seems :) I guess that's a long winded way to say "Yes, I agree", but you never know if someone else out there has seen the same issues with the same hardware. -Steve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jan 4 19:13:06 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA18019 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 19:13:06 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from loki.iss.net (loki.iss.net [208.21.0.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA18014 for ; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 19:13:04 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from rmooney@iss.net) Received: from arden.iss.net (rmooney@arden.iss.net [208.21.0.8]) by loki.iss.net (8.8.7/8.7.3) with SMTP id WAA20074; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 22:11:03 -0500 Date: Mon, 4 Jan 1999 22:12:28 -0500 (EST) From: Robert Mooney To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG cc: Spidey Subject: Re: CD to wave, howto...

Is this something worht working on. Enable amd in /etc/rc.conf then reboot or start amd manually. Then % ls /host/nospam/filesystem will automount all the exported filesystems from the host named nospam and provide a listing of the specified filesystem. While you access it thru /host, its actually mounted under /net by amd. Think you have to use it under /host to keep amd happy that its in use else it umounts after a time. I have symbolic links to /host/hostname/filesystem/dir/... sprinkled thruout my FreeBSD systems at work so a reference to the appropriate directory does the automount. /home/ncvs is such a symbolic link allowing me to get to one archive from several hosts. Once Upon A Time with FreeBSD, if one had a host mounted via NFS and that host died, FreeBSD refused to forget about the mounted filesystems and wouldn't recover even when the remote system reappeared. Amd "cured" that problem for me, so I don't know it the problem still exists or not. Haven't thought about it for years. There have been instructions on these lists on how to do a "program" mount with amd to get the cdrom mounted similarly. Once mounted am not sure how a plain user could force a umount in order to change CD's. SGI Irix offers amd as one option, but by usually uses a different automount daemon that's different enough from FreeBSD to keep you on your toes as the default config mounts using references to /hosts/ rather than /host/. For the CDROM, SGI uses a process called "mediad" which monitors the cd tray and tape drives. Updates desktop icons appropriately too. Knows what filesystem is on the media too (Mac HFS, DOS FAT16, iso9660, efs, xfs) and mounts appropriately. On hybrid disks the Mac fs is chosen over DOS. Anyhow, the user can easily eject a cd, zip, or tape from desktop or command line. On SGI while a CD fs is mounted the disk tray is locked. Haven't checked lately to see if FreeBSD does this. OTOH I like the Mac solution: the OS (or cd driver) knows the eject button has been pressed, so it umounts and completes the eject. Windows (even NT) clumbsily appears to find out the CD is missing the next time its referenced. -- 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.

That's what you want for printing files you create in vi, but not what you want for wp. For wp you want a raw filter. Something like: $ cat /usr/local/libexec/rawif #! /bin/sh # # rawif: lpr input filter # this is a raw device - users must set the printer state # (eg. using PCL) in their print file to get reasonable output. /bin/cat && exit 0 exit 2 So set up a new printcap entry that uses :if=/usr/local/libexec/rawif and aim your wp output at it. -- Kevin Street street@iName.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Jan 4 23:14:18 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id XAA09774 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 23:14:18 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from namodn.com (namodn.com [207.33.107.203]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id XAA09768 for ; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 23:14:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from robert@namodn.com) Received: from localhost (robert@localhost) by namodn.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id XAA10739 for ; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 23:21:02 GMT (envelope-from robert@namodn.com) Date: Mon, 4 Jan 1999 23:21:02 +0000 (GMT) From: Robert To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: apache + counter Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi. I installed a simple counter on my server's main website. It does a server side include to read a number from a file everytime the page is accessed, and then increments the number. I like the simplicity of this approach, also the fact that it is Lynx-friendly. However, I am trying to figure out how I can make apache not process this particular include, possibly not even parse the file at all if neccessary, if the hit is coming from my own server. I am going to search apache.org of course, but I was hoping someone could save me a little time on this ;) Also, recommendations for a counter that outputs text and has such features as I have listed above would be most welcome ..( that is, ability to not count hits coming from specified domains/ip addresses ) TIA, -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 Mon Jan 4 23:14:54 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id XAA09822 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 23:14:54 -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 XAA09817 for ; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 23:14:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from larry_nilsen@eee.org) Received: from eee.org (jtuser89.eee.org [163.150.24.184]) by mail.eee.org (8.8.6 (PHNE_14041)/8.8.6) with ESMTP id XAA05324; Mon, 4 Jan 1999 23:14:22 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <3691BBC0.9E9E5041@eee.org> Date: Mon, 04 Jan 1999 23:14:09 -0800 From: larry_nilsen X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.06 [en] (Win95; I) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "Florian_Uhl@3com.com" , "freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG" Subject: Re: ppp References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi I went ahead and copied every thing to the t and still not wanting to dial modem.

Don't _ever_ believe anything Win95 says, it changes IRQ's and addresses of PnP devices to suit itself (I have 2 serial ports and an internal modem, but in the past I seen 5 serial ports in Win95's device manager!!!). I suggest you boot: -c and enable sio2 (COM3 in DOS terms) and if necessary configure the modem via pnp to use the IRQ and address of sio2 (and change your ppp.conf to use /dev/cuaa2).

Unfortunately, they don't seem to be working for me. Reading the archives shows that some people have them working fine, while others can't get them to work at all. There is also some vague mumbling that the driver is neglected and unmaintained. If you are using (or trying to use) this card, please send me a quick email stating your configuration and if this is working. For example, I have: port: 0x300 irq: 10 iomem: 0xd0000 memsize: 32K system: 486/33 16M OS: FreeBSD 3.0-current works?: Nope, can send ARP replies out but that's about it Also, let me know if you've had to do any special fiddling to get it working, or if it worked in one machine but not another. There seem to be quite a few cases where the card will work fine under Windows, but not FreeBSD. I'd like to look at some empirical evidence to see if success/failure is due to certain hardware combinations, in which case the driver code might need to be re-examined... - Mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Jan 5 03:30:02 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id DAA02131 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 5 Jan 1999 03:30:02 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.multimedia.telkom.co.id (mailer.telkom.co.id [202.134.0.60]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id DAA02091 for ; Tue, 5 Jan 1999 03:29:56 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from eka@jwest.telkom.co.id) Received: from mailer.jwest.telkom.co.id ([10.40.1.199]) by mail.multimedia.telkom.co.id (Netscape Messaging Server 3.52) with SMTP id AAA3371 for ; Tue, 5 Jan 1999 18:29:38 +0700 Received: from (sv-cpq) [10.14.3.250] (ekak) by mailer.jwest.telkom.co.id with smtp (Exim 1.82 #1) id 0zxUdn-0002nf-00; Tue, 5 Jan 1999 18:27:15 +0700 Message-ID: <3691F62E.6A93A5DF@jwest.telkom.co.id> Date: Tue, 05 Jan 1999 18:23:26 +0700 From: Eka Kelana Organization: RisTI X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.04Gold (X11; I; Linux 2.0.0 i486) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Install problem Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi...

Then the F? prompt showed up along with information that F1 will bring up BSD OS. But when I tried to press F1 it seemed that the boot manager couldn't find my SCSI disk and it kept prompting the F?

As others have said, its a Symbios based card. From the prices I saw when I was shopping the Diamond cards were more expensive than others. Certainly wouldn't pay more for Diamond support. One thing to watch for when buying a SCSI card is the external connector. Diamond used a narrow SCSI-II connector even on their wide cards. Asus used a wide connector. Made it an easy choice for me. Bought an Asus SC875 for $110, which was a pretty good price a year or two ago. If shopping for price, http://www.pricewatch.com/ yeilds some interesting results. Tekram is another maker of Symbios SCSI cards but watch out as not all Tekram cards are Symbios based. Have seen prices for '875 based cards approach $80. I also use Adaptec 2940 cards in some systems. Some with one 2940 and one '875. Without digging to the Nth percentile there is little or no performance difference. I like the onboard format and diagnostics of the Adaptec best (Asus SC875 has none). Am told the Tekram Symbios cards have similar utilities as Adaptec in ROM. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net (hm) ====================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

So nothing's a perfect solution, it seems :) Odd, we use the Omniview extensively at work (The 6port version), including cascaded arrangements larger than you're using here (16 CPUs, though we're considering bumping that to over 30), and have seen no problems like this. I think it does depend on the keyboard BIOS, though just about any reasonable keyboard BIOS seems to work well.

There is a second drive in this system with plenty of free space. So I would like to transfer the contents of the boot drive to this and subsequently restore to the new drive, preserving the current state of original installation exactly. What is the best way to do this? The system has a Adaptec 7890 SCSI controller, so my understanding is I can't use a standard 2.2.7 boot floppy. I'm assuming I can use 3.0 boot and fixit floppies, and use these to create the filesystems on the new disk, and then transfer all the contents of a backup from the second disk. In particular, I'm assuming that whatever I do with 3.0 here (disklabel, making filesystems, restoring files) is compatible with 2.2.7. I tried tarring the whole drive with # tar cf /usr/backup/all.tar / When I restore to a test directory like /usr/test with /usr/test# tar xpf /usr/backup/all.tar the contents of the disk seem to be restored correctly under /usr/test with a couple of exceptions (or at least, these are the ones I noticed): (a) The kernel flags (normally shcg) are not set. Does tar not know about file flags? Are there any other places files normally have flags set? I read Elizabeth Zwicky's backup article (http://reality.sgi.com/zwicky_neu/testdump.doc.html), and it doesn't seem to mention file flags at all! (b) During the tar create operation, tar complains about a whole slew of /dev/* files, saying (e.g.) "tar: /dev/wd0s3: minor number too large; not dumped". Consequently some 50 odd device nodes are not recreated when untarring. How should these be handled? (c) Some files are untarred onto /proc - presumably I should get rid of these. I guess it would be best to not have the /proc files (other than the directory itself?) in the archive, but I don't know how to do this in a straightforward way. -- 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 Tue Jan 5 09:14:28 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA08349 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 5 Jan 1999 09:14:28 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from send105.yahoomail.com (send105.yahoomail.com [205.180.60.128]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id JAA08340 for ; Tue, 5 Jan 1999 09:14:26 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ynelson@yahoo.com) Message-ID: <19990105171529.9801.rocketmail@send105.yahoomail.com> Received: from [130.212.201.125] by send105.yahoomail.com; Tue, 05 Jan 1999 09:15:29 PST Date: Tue, 5 Jan 1999 09:15:29 -0800 (PST) From: Nelson Yu Subject: Compiling C++ To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I have FreeBSD and I could not compile C++ programs using gcc, whenever I use cout or cin I get error messages but changing to printf is fine, I've included already.

Marsh University of Washington durang@u.washington.edu Chemical Engineering ---------- Forwarded message ---------- I got a couple of these 3com cards for xmas, and I'm having troubles making them work. I added these lines to the kernel config: device ie0 at isa? port 0x300 net irq 10 iomem 0xd8000 vector ieintr pseudo-device ether Used a DOS utility to set it as follows: I/O 300 IRQ 10 TRANSCEIVER TYPE ON-BOARD RAM BASE ADDRESS 0D8000 Hex RAM SIZE 16 KB ROM BASE ADDRESS 0D0000 Hex ROM SIZE 00 KB ZERO WAIT STATE ENABLED DATA MODE TURBO My dmesg gives these lines: ie0: unknown board_id: f000 ie0 not found at 0x300 Man page for IE(4) says: ie%d: unknown board type code %d An i82586 chip was found, but the driv-er was unable to determine the actual board type during the probe. Nothing in my kernel config or dmesg suggests that there could be an irq or port address conflict. Also, I'm wondering whether "iomem" refers to RAM or to ROM. I've tried several combinations, but so far the result is always the same. I'm using FreeBSD 2.2.6. Thanks in advance for any assistance. I've never done anything with networking hardware before, so don't overlook the obvious! Kenneth J.

Then you've configured the memory location and size? Do you see what I am getting at here? When you setup the card (3c507.exe) you set the IRQ, memory location, and memory size. Therefore, you know what the setting are to dump into the kernel setup. Before we both get frustrated with each other: 1. Find and locate a copy of MSD.EXE. 2. Move it to the machine (or for BSD-only boxen, on a MS-DOS floppy). 3. Boot MS-DOS. 4. Run MSD.EXE. 5. Press "M" for Memory. 6. You should now be looking at a visual map of your memory. Any of the black areas (don't you _dare_ tell me you have a monochrome monitor. :-) can be used by the 3c507 as a buffer for data. 7. Exit MSD when you feel you have the appropriate information etched into your short-term memory, or a convient piece of dried wood mulch. 8. Run 3C507.EXE 9. Configure the card with the necessary information. 10. Reboot into FreeBSD. 11. Quick! kernel -cs. 12. Enter the appropriate information into the ie0 device (is that right?). 14. There is no step 13. :-) 15. It _should_ find the card. 16. When you have a shell prompt type: "fsck -p" and after that (Press `Enter' between them) "mount -a" (and press it after them :-). 17. Edit /etc/rc.conf to include "ie0" in the network_interfaces line. 18. Add a ifconfig_ie0 line with the ip, etc. 19. If you're running DHCP, you should read the docs on it. 20. If everything looks ok, hit "CTRL-D" and the machine should boot multi-user. The 3c507 works by buffering the incoming ethernet data into system RAM. Generally, (according to 3Com) the more space the better. > Anyone know of a good book or online docs that explain this kind of thing? I'm going to think that since my reply gets into the mailing-list archive... > Anyway, would you suggest I just try many different 16K chuncks of RAMbase > until the card is found by the kernel? I'd go on 8K chunks. But machines have nasty tendencies to hang, and you programmed the card, you're _supposed_ to have the info. :-) But if you don't mind rebooting several times...

I've had many similar problems by installing different ports at different times spanning months. I believe that if you upgrade ALL of your graphic apps to the most recent version (or previous versions all on the same CD), then you problems will go away. There is certainly a more elegant solution, though, and I'll let someone else come up with that. Kenneth J.

Secondly, previous versions, boot probing and/or full-screen kernel configuration included device aic0 which was my Adaptec AHA-1520 SCSI controller. With version 3.0 it seems to be missing.

I am using "Apple color LW 12/600 PS" printer driver on my Win98 box, and trying to print to Epson Stylus Color 600 of my FreeBSD 3.0 box (via SAMBA). The printing is fine, but at the end of each printing, it prints extra page number to a new page (without page feed), which is similar to this: %% [ Page: 1 ] %% %% [ LastPage ] %% Then I have to manually press page feed button to eject the paper. Otherwise, the next print job will be printed after the page number on the same paper. How can I get rid of this? I don't want to print the extra page number/info, it is wasting my paper.

To justify my statement, and start a discussion of file system allocation, you want the following (bare miminum): 1) OS installed software (/ & /usr) 2) Spool area (/var) 3) Things that didn't come with the OS (i.e. - your home directory). On second thought, if you don't ever spool anything (i.e. - no mail, no printer, nothing logged, etc.), you can get away without /var. That's not very likely, though.

That's not very likely, though. You haven't said why you think you need separate file systems for all these things. It's perfectly possible to have a UNIX system with only one file system; I have at least one on my network, and that may be too few. In general, there are three possible reasons for having more than one file system: 1. Security. If you break one file system, you still have the other. This was once a serious problem, but nowadays the systems are so reliable that it hardly counts. I've been running BSD for nearly 7 years now, and I've only had one crash (on a BSD/OS root file system, FWIW). Still, this and superstition are the reason that I accept a separate root file system on the system disk. 2. Because they are on different disks. Vinum will solve this problem too. See http://www.lemis.com/vinum.html for more details. 3. Because otherwise it would be too big to make a backup on a single tape. The biggest disadvantage of separate partitions is that it fragments your data space. In this forum we continually see people running out of space, usually on /var, and wanting to know what to do. If they hadn't had a separate /var in the first place, they wouldn't have had the problem.

Not sure why you say too many, since with even one disk with I prefer the ability to dump less than all of my system at once (just the home directories file system for example) and like to be able to break out special things like /usr/obj to give different mount options to them. Anyway, this was for comparison to SCO Unixware 1.1.x, which allows 8 file systems, but only 2G per file system. Since FreeBSD has a much higher limit (terabyte range) per file system, it turns out the number of file systems per slice is not an issue.

Heavily-trafficed things (mail spools, printer spools, the log files) get pulled into one area so that writes to them will be isolated during a crash. Stuff that doesn't come from the vendor gets a separate file system so that it's got separate backups, is well out of the way for OS upgrades, etc. > In general, there are three possible reasons for having more than one > file system: > > 1.

That's why you want to minimize the number - especially for things that don't come with the OS. On the other hand, I got tired of seeing SunOS systems (that put /var on / and way to little space on /) die horribly when /var filled up. That gets solved by moving /var off of /. /var fills up, but the system still runs mostly fine. Which is another reason for having a seperate file system: to provide firewalls (terminology courtesy of Mike O'Dell). I split /usr off from / on my system, in part so I don't have to worry about filling / while mucking about with /usr/ports and thus causing real problems. Ditto for putting your own stuff on a different file system from root, or one where you log files, etc. That way, a runaway user process can't cripple the system by running something critical out of space (or, given the 10% slop, so close that it'll finish the job itself).

The default, directly connected routing, will do it for you. Configure your ip addresses on each adapter like normal, and make sure your default gateway points out to the internet NIC. If all you have is the NT box off the other NIC, you don't have to worry. The fact that the network is directly connected will make routing to it work. For instance, let's assume you have this setup: (10.1.1.1)NT ------- (10.1.1.2) FreeBSD (129.70.1.1) ----- Internet Then, simply telneting to 10.1.1.1 from the FreeBSD will work with no extra routing config.

Inadequately. Since you're dumping by FS (and you are, otherwise you wouldn't worry about dump tape size vs. file system size), you wind up with mixed backup. I guess if you limit your file system size to one dump tape, there's no problem with lugging tapes full of OS software around to restore user stuff, but I'd rather not live with that limit.

Nope. I don't, either. Tape changes only need to happen for full backups. Incrementals live on one type (or one CD-ROM, or one JAZ platter, or whatever). That's if you run large-iron backup software. If you run PC-style (clone the whole disk), then yeah, you have to live with that kind of restriction.

Quotas are both more expensive (in terms of CPU) and less effective than putting potential offenders in different file systems.

[start paste..] 2. Installation 2.1. Which file do I download to get FreeBSD? You generally need just one floppy image, the floppies/boot.flp file, which you image-copy onto a 1.44MB floppy and then boot from in order to download the rest (and the installation will manage your TCP/IP connection, deal with tapes, CDROMs, floppies, DOS partitions, whatever's necessary to get the rest of the bits installed). If you need to download the distributions yourself (for a DOS filesystem install, for instance), below are some recommendations for distributions to grab: o bin/ o manpages/ o compat*/ o doc/ o src/ssys.* Full instructions on this procedure and a little bit more about installation issues in general can be found in the Handbook entry on installing FreeBSD. [end paste..] For a minimum install, all you really need is bin/, but the manpages are _highly_ recommended as well. The others are optional. Also, you might want to read the Handbook and the FAQ before posting questions. It's alot easier to find someone willing to help if you've read what's available, and it also helps keep traffic on the list a little lower.

You could just use the SSH secure connection method. SSH lets you redirect a local port on your machine, encrypts that, sends it to the SSH server you're connected to, and that sends it to wherever. I use it to pick up my IMAP mail from work, where absolutely no outside connections using passwords are allowed. And my brother SSHs into here to get his POP mail and send it with SMTP. I'm using Cedomir Igaly's SSH client for Windows v2.101 (searching for "cedomir igaly ssh" on yahoo always finds it for me). There's a newer version available with more options, but it seems to have a problem using RSA keys, so I use my old v2.101. --Ludwig Pummer ( ludwigp@bigfoot.com ) ICQ UIN: 692441 ( ludwigp@email.com ) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Jan 5 15:23:25 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA29950 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 5 Jan 1999 15:23:25 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from xylan.com (postal.xylan.com [208.8.0.248]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA29924; Tue, 5 Jan 1999 15:23:22 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from wes@softweyr.com) Received: from mailhub.xylan.com by xylan.com (8.8.7/SMI-SVR4 (xylan-mgw 2.2 [OUT])) id PAA11168; Tue, 5 Jan 1999 15:22:03 -0800 (PST) Received: from utah.XYLAN.COM by mailhub.xylan.com (SMI-8.6/SMI-SVR4 (mailhub 2.1 [HUB])) id PAA01373; Tue, 5 Jan 1999 15:21:48 -0800 Received: from softweyr.com by utah.XYLAN.COM (SMI-8.6/SMI-SVR4 (xylan utah [SPOOL])) id QAA13517; Tue, 5 Jan 1999 16:21:47 -0700 Message-ID: <36929E8A.1515AD1E@softweyr.com> Date: Tue, 05 Jan 1999 16:21:46 -0700 From: Wes Peters Organization: Softweyr LLC X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (X11; U; FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Gustavo Vieira G C Rios CC: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-security@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Security References: <36925FC2.12EC490F@netshell.vicosa.com.br> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Gustavo Vieira G C Rios wrote: > > Hi, folks, i am trying to increase my system security, but the main > problem i would like to solve is: > I DON'T wanna my user to send their passwords via a connect over > internet. for instance, when getting email they need to send it!

For email, require your users to use IMAP or POP3 with APOP. Both feature encrypted password access. For file transfer, disable your FTP server and make your users use scp.

Somebody, who understands the difference between "desired" and "requested" in the natd(8) man page provide a working example of ipfw rules and natd redirections for the following scheme: ===_==== Internet === ISP-news-server === | public if -- internal0 (10.10.0.1) | | dual-interface ...... machine | | -- internalN (10.10.0.N) private if ----------| (10.10.0.N+1) I want to use the ISP's news server from my internal machines. I do NOT want to use nntpproxy or socks5. It appears, I can use ipfw/natd on the "dual interface machine" (say, aldan) to forward connections to its port 119, which come through private if (say, ep0) to the new-server. I tried the following: 00050 divert 6668 tcp from 10.10.0.1 to any 00200 deny ip from any to 127.0.0.0/8 65535 allow ip from any to any and the following natd.conf : same_ports yes log yes redirect_port tcp news.ISP.net:nntp nntp interface ep0 deny_incoming no with some variations.

I've just seen how much the traffic's gone up in questions so I can understand the lack of reply I'm hoping that someone reads this who can offer some help but might have missed it first time around - my apologies to all who receive this twice. Thanks, Dave === I've been having a problem with ppp since my 2.2.5 installation and now it seems worse with my fresh 3.0 install. 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?

In the kernel configuration file I wrote, I must use a 'device lnc0 at isa?' which usually isn't nessecary. Also, functions like addmulti(), which I need for AppleTalk do not work.

I'm logged in as root, running scripts as root - I've searched the mail archives, looks like a few other people have seen similar to this, but no real answers... Anyone suggest anything? (I've checked the logs etc. - nothing is written to syslog, in fact nothing appears to be logged anywhere). It does seem to happen more often when the system is loaded (i.e. running a couple of scripts at the same time). The scripts do basic cat'ing / awkin'g etc. - nothing fancy... The machine is stable the rest of the time (i.e. no SIG11's, dody RAM, survives a 'make world' etc :-) The machines mostly run things like sendmail (not heavily loaded) and Bind 4.9.6 & 4.9.7 Anyone have any thoughts?

Just run /etc/weekly when the system is idle and it will create the database. If you don't want to do that, you can just run find / -name file_to_find but that traverses your entire directory tree, so locate is much faster once its database has been created. --Ludwig Pummer ( ludwigp@bigfoot.com ) ICQ UIN: 692441 ( ludwigp@email.com ) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Jan 5 17:22:07 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA18571 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 5 Jan 1999 17:22:07 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from guru.phone.net (guru.phone.net [209.157.82.120]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id RAA18561 for ; Tue, 5 Jan 1999 17:22:03 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mwm@phone.net) Received: (qmail 25844 invoked by uid 100); 6 Jan 1999 01:21:36 -0000 Received: from localhost (sendmail-bs@127.0.0.1) by localhost with SMTP; 6 Jan 1999 01:21:36 -0000 Date: Tue, 5 Jan 1999 17:21:36 -0800 (PST) From: Mike Meyer To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: CD to wave, howto...

Does anyone know the easiest > way to do this? This question seems to be popping up quite a bit lately now everybody got new HD's for Christmas. 1) Install your new HD and partition it with Microsoft's FDISK.EXE. This seems to prevent geometry issues with some combinations. 2) Boot FreeBSD and use /stand/sysinstall to make FreeBSD partitions. And make the filesystems while you are in there using the same partition names as your old system. Let sysinstall write boot blocks on your new drive. 2a) Its best at this point to reboot into single user mode. Don't mount any filesystems other than root. 3) Mount the new root partition somewhere such as /mnt 4) "dump -0af - / | (cd /mnt; restore -rf - )" The above should create the mount points for the rest of your filesystems to be used when looping thru steps 3 and 4. 5) Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each of your FreeBSD filesystems. 6) Don't forget to do the /var filesystem, that's the one I keep forgetting. 7) Shutdown and put the new HD in the place of the old. If you don't maintain the same partition names for FreeBSD as the old, then you should edit /mnt/etc/fstab to use the new partitions before leaving the old disk. Example: /dev/sd0s2g is my /home partition. If I were to mount another drive to copy my running FreeBSD system to, I'd want to make sure /dev/sd1s2g is the new /home partion mounted on /mnt/home. Then when the original disk is removed the new disk will become /dev/sd0s2g and all will be OK once again. But if for some reason I put /mnt/home on /dev/sd1s2h instead then I'd better fix /mnt/etc/fstab before moving the HD's around. -- 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.

If your users have access to ssh and are running unix-like OSes, I've written some scripts which use ssh and movemail to fetch email. I call the scripts fmail. I got tired, even with ssh redirected POP, of the time and slow handshaking of the POP protocol. Now I get full speed (bandwidth) delivery of my email via an encrypted and compressed channel. Myself and one other person have been using the scripts for months. fmail requires (well not exactly) passwordless ssh entry into the system with the mail.

You could just use the SSH secure connection method. SSH lets you redirect a local port on your machine, encrypts that, sends it to the SSH server you're connected to, and that sends it to wherever. I use it to pick up my IMAP mail from work, where absolutely no outside connections using passwords are allowed. And my brother SSHs into here to get his POP mail and send it with SMTP. I'm using Cedomir Igaly's SSH client for Windows v2.101 (searching for "cedomir igaly ssh" on yahoo always finds it for me). There's a newer version available with more options, but it seems to have a problem using RSA keys, so I use my old v2.101. --Ludwig Pummer ( ludwigp@bigfoot.com ) ICQ UIN: 692441 ( ludwigp@email.com ) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" 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 Tue Jan 5 17:34:50 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA20916 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 5 Jan 1999 17:34:50 -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 RAA20911 for ; Tue, 5 Jan 1999 17:34:46 -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 MAA10758; Wed, 6 Jan 1999 12:03:51 +1030 (CST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.1/8.9.0) id MAA83153; Wed, 6 Jan 1999 12:03:53 +1030 (CST) Date: Wed, 6 Jan 1999 12:03:53 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: David Kelly Cc: James Moore , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Printed man pages (was: Looking for the best webmaster.)

If you allow me some suggest: what about a chapter covering NIS, AutoMount util? More security concepts would be very, very nice too. This is my humble opnion about that.

In some cases, it's really hard to understand the on-screen versions, what with scrolling back and forth between the command list, option explanations, examples, notes, etc. (take man tar or man ftp for instance). OTOH, I recognize that they make the book unmanageable. I'd rather have more handbook text, without the man pages - except, I think it might be good to retain man pages for a selected few commands, like disklabel and newfs for instance, for those occasions when you don't have a system with which to see the online versions. Meantime, I'll be giving TLC to my second edition. -- 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 Tue Jan 5 19:01:05 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA00360 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 5 Jan 1999 19:01:05 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from awfulhak.org (awfulhak.force9.co.uk [195.166.136.63]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA00340 for ; Tue, 5 Jan 1999 19:01:02 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from brian@Awfulhak.org) Received: from dev.lan.awfulhak.org (dev.lan.awfulhak.org [172.16.0.5]) by awfulhak.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id AAA05679; Wed, 6 Jan 1999 00:35:21 GMT (envelope-from brian@Awfulhak.org) Received: from dev.lan.awfulhak.org (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by dev.lan.awfulhak.org (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id AAA66284; Wed, 6 Jan 1999 00:35:20 GMT (envelope-from brian@dev.lan.awfulhak.org) Message-Id: <199901060035.AAA66284@dev.lan.awfulhak.org> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.0.2 2/24/98 To: "Leo Kliger" cc: brian@Awfulhak.org, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: ppp upgrade hassles In-reply-to: Your message of "Tue, 05 Jan 1999 17:26:43 +1100." <199901050956.UAA06386@astea.com.au> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Wed, 06 Jan 1999 00:35:20 +0000 From: Brian Somers Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > while trying to upgrade to the latest version of ppp the following > occurs...... > > the following error during make > modem.c; in function 'modem_timeout'. > modem.c.208 implicit warning or something or other > > any ideas??? could you help???

Personally, I'm ambivalent. I like manuals in hardcopy, and regularly print them out. On the other hand, I mostly use man pages as a reference, checking options, etc. But some man pages are really manuals in disguise. However, when Usenix did the BSD man page - oh so long ago - they seemed to sell fairly well. So possibly bundling turning the man pages into a companion volume and selling the FreeBSD book both standalone and with bundled? I still have my copy of the 4.3BSD edition, and the one thing that leaps out instantly is that they are spiral bound - meaning they lie flat. If the previous volume didn't lie flat, that would greatly reduce the utility of the printed manual pages.

I grabbed 5.0 off the web site, and instantly ran into problems. Like setup segment faults. I really only want a WP/DTP package, not everything esle. WordPerfect 8 is flaky here (the toolbar menus don't pull down, selection isn't reliable, fonts don't change, and I get rendering errors). So, anyone got suggestions? My needs are simple: I want a grammer checker, and the ability to handle printing labels (VHS spine, CDROM, etc.) I don't object to spending reasonable amounts (or even unreasonable, for the right tool - I'd kill for a recent FrameMaker version on this box!), but if it's not built for FreeBSD, I'd like to try it out and see how well it works before paying for it.

Perhaps Volume 1 "Installing and Running FreeBSD" Volume 2 "The Complete FreeBSD" (without man pages) Volume 3 "FreeBSD DOC" (man pages) Have you considered revamping "Porting UNIX Software" into a FreeBSD-centric text? -- Regards, Norman C.

I have to second this thought. In general, the man pages section is nice, but not essential. It certainly wouldn't hurt to trim it down a lot, but I think getting rid of it completely is going a tiny bit too far. What I'd like to see is the "Selected man pages" section turn into "Essential man pages". That is, man pages for the commands you need when you find yourself poking around in single user mode trying to figure out ed enough to fix things. Yes, there have been a couple of times I would have killed for a printed ed man page -- please put that one on the list! And, as Graeme points out, disklabel and newfs are good candidates, too.

Are you using the TCP/IP protocol on the 95 machines? You're also best off removing the IPX/SPX and the NetBeui junk. Then make sure you have your DNS and Name server on the 95 side setup right. You all so may need to make a hosts file on the FreeBSD machine. This is explained in the Handbook, and in Greg's book. The rest is basic 95 setup.

I didn't buy the latest edition of the book simply because it is so bulky. If making it look beefy is a goal, I'd prefer the handbook or faq in print. However, my first choice is not to have anything in the book that I can print myself. How much extra would it cost to include man pages, handbook, and/or faq as a separate volume? (I actually did consider ripping the binding down the middle, but then I'd have lost the index too. Also it seemed sacriligous) Kenneth J.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm very sad to hear that O'Reilly will no longer publish the 4.4 BSD manuals. Glad I got a set. Maybe someone feels that they're becoming not quite relevant or something. But that's where I go. There are things that are better on a printed page. I usually have Greg's book or a browser open to one page and the BSD _book_ open to another. Invaluable, both of them. You can't do this stuff w/out man pages and yes, it's a pain in the pants to have to read them off a screen sometimes. Besides, you never know when you might want something that just had to get left out of Greg's selection. Maybe if enough folks pestered O'Reilly they would re-issue. Just my 2 cents' worth.

I set up a server in our local net, using FreeBSD 2.2.8-Release. Our local net is protected by a commercial NAT box, which I think it runs under Windows NT. The strange ( and might be weird ) problem is that I can connect to my server box via the external ISP dial up account ( It works fine for telnet, http, ftp, and pop3 ) , however it is impossible to connect to this machine when I tried to connect it from other Win98 box inside our local net. We have a licensed Class C subnet, which goes from 203.79.220.xxx ( xxx=1~255 ) ( when I telnet to other machine outside, I get my address as 203.79.220.aaa ) the local network address is 203.75.249.xxx ( xxx=1~255 ) which corresponds to the external viewable address one by one in the following form: 203.75.249.aaa --> 203.79.220.aaa (Internal ) ( External ) The sysadm of our company does not set for the protection of the address from 251~254 ( 254 is our default router). that means you can connect to these machine from the outside 203.75.249.251~254 The connection from the outside for the following addrs. is not allowed. ( To protect our database server running under SCO UNIX. ) 203.75.249.2 ~ 250 203.75.249.1 runs on WinNT and is our ftp, http, dns server. It is strange that I can connect it under our local net and from the outside. Does FreeBSD have any limitation for this kind of arrangements? Why the WinNT server works fine but the FreeBSD server cannot work? How can I modify my setting or suggest the necessary modifications to our sysadm? Thank you very much!

If > anybody has strong feelings about this, please let me know. I think there may be more manpages in the book than the minimum requirement to fill the books needs. But I also feel there is a need for bound printed manpages. I remember way back when we used to get printed manpage updates from SGI to go in the 3-ring (or was it 5-ring?) binders. Then in 1991 the new systems came with spiral bound documentation. And now they come with less printed documentation than my PowerMac came with. Would like to see FreeBSD manpages as a separate book. Would also be interested in really deep detailed printed documentation on the specific guts of FreeBSD but am not curious enough to spring for McKusick's video course. There is nothing like a printed book to put yourself to sleep with at night. I keep my copies of the ORA Sendmail, Bind, and MH, books handy for treating insomnia. -- 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.

The disk is not dedicated and in the original PC it was wd1s1a, b, etc - no problems here. After putting it in the 486 I discovered that the BIOS wouln't detect the drive (only handles < 2GB and drive is 3.2G [WDAC33200L]) No problemo - downloaded Western Digital driver, installed EZ-BIOS, voila! BUT all partition info lost - should have seen that coming. Restored track 0, added a floppy, created a boot floppy, booted from it, entered wd(0,a)/blah at the boot prompt and yahoo - booting. BUT I cannot mount the root partition r/w. I changed the fstab entry to wd0a and then to wd0s1 without any gains. How did I manage this on a r/o root fs - this is the bit that gets me - I can mount wd0s1 r/w on /mnt with no problems - everything is there. I can even edit files on it, but it will not mount as / Thanks in advance to any/all that can help. PS: It was formatted under 2.2.6 as the 2nd IDE drive and upgraded to 2.2.7 - no newfs was done during the upgrade (obviously). The upgrade to 2.2.7 fixed the naming (wd1a -> wd1s1a) however now it's back to wd0a, b, etc. since it's now the only drive in the box.

I've not checked out Apache's proxy facilities - bad experiences with NCSA's code made me leary of it for a long while, but I'd start there, as CERN's is no longer supported.

I now have a whole new lot of headaches, currently I connect to the Internet via userland ppp and an external ISDN T/A. No problems. Now with the Netgear I am a bit lost. I have a c class of routable IP number which I use for other servers and bits and pieces, my ISP assigns me another IP number for my router and gives me a third IP for their adjacent router. The IP numbers that my ISP gives me are from a different subnet than my c class. Has anybody used the Netgear RT328 for this - or does anyone have any hints for me. My problem seems to be in routing. I realise these numbers are not routable - mine are I promise. So my c class 192.168.168.0 My ISP assigns me 192.168.160.1 My ISPs router 192.168.160.62 My BSD box is 192.168.168.2 - my router is 192.168.168.1. It is assigned 192.168.160.1 I add a default route of 192.168.168.1 top my BSD box and my windows clients use a gateway of 192.168.168.1.

Unfortunately, they don't seem to be working for me. Reading the archives shows that some people have them working fine, while others can't get them to work at all. There is also some vague mumbling that the driver is neglected and unmaintained. If you are using (or trying to use) this card, please send me a quick email stating your configuration and if this is working. For example, I have: port: 0x300 irq: 10 iomem: 0xd0000 memsize: 32K system: 486/33 16M OS: FreeBSD 3.0-current works?: Nope, can send ARP replies out but that's about it Also, let me know if you've had to do any special fiddling to get it working, or if it worked in one machine but not another. There seem to be quite a few cases where the card will work fine under Windows, but not FreeBSD. I'd like to look at some empirical evidence to see if success/failure is due to certain hardware combinations, in which case the driver code might need to be re-examined... - Mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Jan 6 00:11:33 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA04692 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 6 Jan 1999 00:11:33 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from faust.moldsat.md (faust.moldsat.md [212.0.213.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id AAA04680 for ; Wed, 6 Jan 1999 00:11:28 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from andy@moldsat.md) Received: from localhost (andy@localhost) by faust.moldsat.md (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id KAA01351 for ; Wed, 6 Jan 1999 10:12:34 +0200 (EET) (envelope-from andy@moldsat.md) Date: Wed, 6 Jan 1999 10:12:33 +0200 (EET) From: andy To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: strict ipfw questions Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Could anyone out there give me port range and handshake sequence for ms netmeeting?

I loathe the presence of the man pages in the book -- they have made it far less useful than it would otherwise have been, because it's just too damn big to manage in one hand while I juggle six keyboards and mice while trying to find out why something didn't happen the way I wanted.

I installed FreeBSD 3.0 on a machine which acts as our nameserver. I compiled IPFIREWALL into the kernel and setup in rc.conf, firewall type as client Machines on our internal network can resolve external hosts via DNS server. Now, I wanted to see if machines external to our network can query our DNS server. I logged in to one such machine and gave the command dig @my.nameserver internal.machine.name After a long while, the command failed I edited firewall type to be "open" and rebooted the server Now above command works, I read further in rc.firewall and came across "simple" profile I copied the following line to just after allow setup of incoming mail in "client" profile /sbin/ipfw add pass tcp from any to ${ip} 53 setup Rebooted. Same query from external host. Again failure I can only get the query answered by keeping firewall type as open Can anybody tell me how I can allow access to my DNS from outside whilst having all the features of the "client" profile in rc.firewall Thanks, Yusuf -- Yusuf Goolamabbas yusufg@huge.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Jan 6 04:35:10 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id EAA10867 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 6 Jan 1999 04:35:10 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from guru.phone.net (guru.phone.net [209.157.82.120]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id EAA10854 for ; Wed, 6 Jan 1999 04:35:07 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mwm@phone.net) Received: (qmail 18861 invoked by uid 100); 6 Jan 1999 12:34:39 -0000 Received: from localhost (sendmail-bs@127.0.0.1) by localhost with SMTP; 6 Jan 1999 12:34:39 -0000 Date: Wed, 6 Jan 1999 04:34:39 -0800 (PST) From: Mike Meyer To: Yusuf Goolamabbas cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: How to allow incoming DNS via 'client' prof in rc.firewall In-Reply-To: <19990106121751.23171.qmail@yusufg.portal2.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On 6 Jan 1999, Yusuf Goolamabbas wrote: > I read further in rc.firewall and came across "simple" profile > > I copied the following line to just after allow setup of incoming mail > in "client" profile > /sbin/ipfw add pass tcp from any to ${ip} 53 setup > > Rebooted.

I sent ``subscribe mozilla@freebsd.org'' to majordomo and got the following: >>>> subscribe mozilla@freebsd.org You tried to "subscribe" to a closed list "mozilla" at Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG. We have some closed lists: Some lists that are aliases for other lists. The list "test" is an alias for "freebsd-test". If you tried to subscribe a list of this type, please subscribe to "freebsd-mozilla" instead. which I take it means my request was rejected because it is a closed list. (BTW, I thought _all_ lists had an alias without the ``freebsd-''). As instructed in the last line I sent ``subscribe freebsd-mozilla@freebsd.org'' and got back the confirmation message: If you really want this action to be taken, please send the following commands (exactly as shown) back to "Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG": auth c87b0809 subscribe freebsd-mozilla marko@uk.radan.com sent it as instructed. Then I received: >>>> auth c87b0809 subscribe freebsd-mozilla marko@uk.radan.com **** Address already subscribed to freebsd-mozilla So what does all this mean? Was my first request rejected or not (I only received and sent one confirmation). How can I be subscribed already if I only sent the one confirmation? Is ``mozilla'' and ``freebsd-mozilla'' the same list and are they closed? -- Trust the computer industry to shorten Year 2000 to Y2K. It was this thinking that caused the problem in the first place.

As someone else pointed out, long manpages are easier to read in printed format, fvwm is one that springs to mind, although too many of these wouldn't result in a much reduced size of book, so you would have to be selective. > Dave > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > Dave Walton > Webmaster, Postmaster Nordic Entertainment Worldwide > walton@nordicdms.com http://www.nordicdms.com > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message -- Trust the computer industry to shorten Year 2000 to Y2K.

Greg, I think the best compromise on this would be to eliminate most of the man pages except for things like sh and fsck that are necessary for recovery from a boot failure. The idea would be to provide enough information to get a system back to a usable state. --- Bob Beer Ohio Northern University, Academic Computer Services, Ada, OH 45810 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Jan 6 06:26:17 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA21073 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 6 Jan 1999 06:26:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from germanium.xtalwind.net (germanium.xtalwind.net [205.160.242.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA21067 for ; Wed, 6 Jan 1999 06:26:15 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jack@germanium.xtalwind.net) Received: from localhost (jack@localhost) by germanium.xtalwind.net (8.9.2/8.9.2) with ESMTP id JAA01635; Wed, 6 Jan 1999 09:25:34 -0500 (EST) Date: Wed, 6 Jan 1999 09:25:34 -0500 (EST) From: jack To: Greg Lehey cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Printed man pages (was: Looking for the best webmaster.)

How about SCO drivers? Seems lots of vendors still surprisingly support SCO, besides mainstay windows, for their products. SCO drivers aren't directly usable by the free OSs, I presume..

The trouble seems to be that Windows has no 'routing table' for the LAN.

It was easy to install and worked from day 1. That was on Window 95. When I installed FreeBSD, it just worked like a charm. Did not have to touch it. The setup was all done with a Win95 gui interface when I first bought it. I think you could do it manually by talking directly to it via PPP or whatever. The modem has been on constantly since installed, because I was going to backfeed my whole house with it and drop the pots line. I never did. But if the family had to remember to turn the modem on before booting the machine, they would not, and Winblows would not recognize without a reboot. So it stays on. It has a 5yr warranty. This modem will also do V90. It connected that way automatically twice when my provider was full-up on isdn connections. I'm trying to get ADSL now, but, sadly, GTE doesn't yet serve my area.

With all of them, I've had the same problems with the console locking up. I found out that after a lot (not sure how many exactly) of switching vty's, this happens, and locks up in mid-switch (using alt-Fkey). Is this a bug with the syscons driver?

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.

Well, I had some problems with them (FreeBSD-2.2.5-R, at the time). So I set up the amd maps to recognize when the data actually resided on the machine in question: if so, use a "type:=link"; if not, use "type:=host". >Did I hit some sort of race condition by >double mounting?

Not sure what the root cause was, but adding a little complexity to the amd maps (as above) allowed us to provide the illusion of the "same FS layout"... and allowed me to use my desktop machine without it crashing 6 times per day. (Typically, we have a person's home directory on the desktop machine.) I consider that a small price to pay....

Wealth Preservation and Asset Protection Planning are now real issues. With the possibility of a single lawsuit wiping away a lifetime of savings, individuals (especially those with families), have made concerted efforts to preserve assets and assure the family estate for future generations. Experts agree that the one of the best ways to do so is with the aid of Asset Protection Trusts. An Asset Protection Trust is not the ideal plan for everyone, but where it is a good solution, professionals (doctors, lawyers, stockbrokers, etc.), owners of closely held businesses, and others who have spent a lifetime accumulating wealth can now put up formidable barriers to thwart potential creditor suits and other civil litigation.

I would like to setup the workstations so that a user can log on to the pentium (as they can now with the -query option) from any workstation or a user on the sparc would have the option of logging on to the pentium or on to the sparc. xdm's man page discusses use of a chooser program to acomplish this...?

Constantly, I can lose the keyboard and/or have malfunctioned keyboard during switching a keyboard to different CPU by using a keyboard switching box in X window section. About less than 35% times, using alt-Fkey may recover the keyboard, but most time I have to quit the X window (if keyboard still alive) or even reboot machine (lost keyboard).

How relevant is it to FreeBSD 3.0? I'm not sure which book you're thinking of, but the video course was ``FreeBSD internals'', and related to FreeBSD 2.x (can't remember which x).

It's not the difference "free OS" and "fee OS", it's just the fact that every kernel has significant differences. In general, you can't even use FreeBSD version X drivers on FreeBSD version Y. SCO has made this more possible simply because they have to, since drivers are distributed in object form.

I've had similar problems. It's the mouse - ps/2 variety - for me. Moving the mouse in the root window while holding down the control key (to pop up a menu) will freeze it up tight. The other situation is during an edit session with Xemacs. During those sessions and if the xconsole window is visible, I see errors indicating psmintr breaking lock or losing sync. I do not remember the exact error. I've rebuilt the kernel there is a variable that needs to be set in 2.2.1R, anyway: options PSM_CHECKSYNC You might want to check the documentation for your version to see if this might help. As far as I know this is a maybe. I've given up and run a serial mouse with no problems.

Although ZIP is OK, 100mg is not enough by far... SCSI devices seems to be the only way... but still cost much more. What is the solution? Is a CD writer compatible with FBSD? My motherboard is a INTEL SE440BX (2 week's old!) If so, is there a perticular brand to look for? (tech info : http://developer.intel.com/design/motherbd/se/se_prdoc.htm Without a backup, I feel naked!!! Thank you.

I'd next try writing it to tape with something other than tar - e.g. ufsdump. If *that* still fails, I'd then want to try it with a new version of this file - maybe even just copying it to another file system and try running *that* to tape. Computers sometimes do just plain weird things, and just because the problem is manifesting itself at the tape drive doesn't necessarily mean the root of it lies there. chris To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Jan 6 19:06:44 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA19228 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 6 Jan 1999 19:06:44 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from yusufg.portal2.com (yusufg.portal2.com [203.85.226.249]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id TAA19209 for ; Wed, 6 Jan 1999 19:06:39 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from yusufg@huge.net) Received: (qmail 25137 invoked by uid 500); 7 Jan 1999 03:06:48 -0000 From: "Yusuf Goolamabbas" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-ID: <13972.9416.159858.358940@yusufg.portal2.com> Date: Thu, 7 Jan 1999 11:06:48 +0800 (CST) To: Mike Meyer Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: IPFW prob (was Re: How to allow incoming DNS via 'client' prof in rc.firewall) In-Reply-To: References: <19990106205928.A23282@huge.net> X-Mailer: VM 6.61 under 20.4 "Emerald" XEmacs Lucid Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Mike, I really appreciate your efforts.

If you've already got /sbin/ipfw add pass tcp from any to any established you can add "setup" to the above two lines for slightly tighter control.

You might also want to try tracing the tar program and checking to see what the last write() call to the tape device returns. If you're running 2.*, you'll have to do with a ktrace/kdump pair, but on 3.0, use the truss command. > As an aside, could someone fill me on on what a "DLT" tape drive is, > and costs? I'm not familiar with them, but am still contemplating > backup options. DLT's are based off the DEC TK85 series of tape drives used on old Vaxes. If you've seen them, DLT tapes look exactly the same. They're a bit larger than a 3480 cartridge and about as durable. Single-reel case, 1/2-inch tape. Capacities from 10GB to 35GB native, with _sustainable_ native data rates from 3 to 5 MB/sec, depending on the model. Need almost no cleaning; our backup devices ask for a cleaning every 3 months or so (with heavy daily use). Somewhat pricey ($4000-6000 for an external DLT7000, 35GB tapes are $90), but very reliable. -Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Jan 6 20:25:16 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA29813 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 6 Jan 1999 20:25:16 -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 UAA29808 for ; Wed, 6 Jan 1999 20:25:12 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from grios@netshell.vicosa.com.br) Received: from netshell.vicosa.com.br [200.236.148.194] by guepardo.vicosa.com.br with ESMTP (SMTPD32-4.03) id A8FB282014E; Thu, 07 Jan 1999 01:32:59 +03d00 Message-ID: <36943686.D8B085E3@netshell.vicosa.com.br> Date: Thu, 07 Jan 1999 02:22:30 -0200 From: Gustavo Vieira G C Rios X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (Win95; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Peter Schwenk , FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: ZipDrive References: <36941337.7F5AD192@netshell.vicosa.com.br> <36943337.5456C8DE@voicenet.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is a problem, my IOMEGA ZIP Drive is running on Parallel Port.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Yes, I know--I should upgrade. Which is what brings me to my questions. I've finally added a decent tape drive to my system so I can backup /home prior to upgrade. I've bought an ExaByte 8700LT because I have some tapes from another system that I'll want to get data from. To test it, I've dumped and restored a file system containing about 44MB to a vacant file system. No problem so far. What I want to do now is to compare the restored file system with the original: PC% sudo diff -r /var.226 /home.215 diff: memory exhausted PC% This isn't the first time that has happened. I'll append information about my system at the end but, for now, I have 48MB of memory and, I think, plenty of swap: PC% swapinfo Device 512-blocks Used Avail Capacity Type /dev/sd0s2b 163840 0 163712 0% Interleaved /dev/sd1s1b 524288 0 524160 0% Interleaved Total 687872 0 687872 0% PC% As you can see, I'm not using any swap.

I can't recall if /proc normally is shown to be full or not. I had been using the memory file system for /tmp and, at first, thought that may have been creating a problem so I unmounted that and created a symbolic link to /usr/tmp. I haven't been able to find any great usage during the diff, though. Since I've never used this tape drive before, I should very much like to verify that my experimental dump/restore was successful before I entrust my /home file system to it before installing 2.2.8. Please let me know if there's anything else I can tell you.

I am having a difficult time with my PPP Dial out configuration. I have read all that I can read and am still suffering from the following symptoms. When my FreeBSD machine trys to connect to my provider, it connects, the provider can see me via ping just once and then I do not show up on his pings. I stay connected but do not have the ability to get anywhere. I have edited the rc.conf, ppp.conf and ppp.linkup to the best of my abilities with no luck. My provider is now using PAP, and prior to this was using forcing us to state username, password and 2 for PPP. That worked well. Now I simply cannot link up to their server an ping it, nor can anyone ping my modem. Just for the heck of it here is my ppp.conf file I call up the dialler with ppp -alias -ddial IGS IGS is my provider I also realize that there is alot of junk I can get rid of in this file, but I have yet to clean it up.

I have attached the debug output to this document. Basically I have a pretty standard setup which works perfectly with standard analogue modems. When I switch the modems over to ISDN T/A's I get the errors listed in the logs. The client is dialing in using NT Server (not my choice) and I want to assign them a static IP. The IP to be assigned is 10.0.0.105 but it seems like 10.0.0.2 is being assigned (I have translated the real IP with some others here).

This is an almost classical case of hardware problems. It's confusing that it started happening round the time you installed 2.2.8, but I'm sure that's not the problem. Did you maybe add memory to the machine at the same time? Or perform some other hardware modification, maybe changing the BIOS parameters?

This is my modem>>>> COMPRO COM-IV34a(336) ACS Innovation I dont have a manuel on this modem so one question is how can i tell if this is a winmodem?and if it is "it means Ive been spinning my wheels for a month...Whats confusing me is my WIN95 side says my modem is on (COM3) port ?but when im booting up the bios only shows one port number 0x3F8 ? I read somthing that goes like this 5.3.7. Serial and Parallel Ports. Note that if you have an internal modem on COM4 and a serial port on COM2 you will have to change the IRQ of the modem to 2 in order to access it from FreeBSD ? In my situation my modem says its on COM3 and my serial port is on COM1 in WIN95 World! would any of this pertain to me? Sorry for the long Message ! ThankYou.

In windows 95 open the System properties panel, then open the modem under the devices tab and write down the information under resources. Reboot to FreeBSD and quick type in -c at the boot: prompt. Enter whichever mode you prefer and type in those settings you read from the modem resources tab into the appropriate fields for the modem. When done, quit and continue booting freebsd. If successful, your modem should be /dev/cuaa1. -- Eric Hodel hodeleri@seattleu.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 7 01:35:47 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id BAA29550 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 01:35:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from host00.net.voyager.co.nz (host00.net.voyager.co.nz [203.21.30.121]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id BAA29533 for ; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 01:35:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from sandii@host02.net.voyager.co.nz) Received: from [203.98.38.161] (ba2p33.net.auckland.voyager.co.nz [203.98.38.161]) by host00.net.voyager.co.nz (8.8.8/8.6.12) with SMTP id WAA20479 for ; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 22:35:07 +1300 (NZDT) Message-Id: <199901070935.WAA20479@host00.net.voyager.co.nz> Subject: User PPP Date: Thu, 7 Jan 99 22:34:35 +1300 x-sender: sandii@pop.voyager.co.nz x-mailer: Claris Emailer 1.1 From: To: "BSD Questions" Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="Emailer_-1295697539" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG --Emailer_-1295697539 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Hi. I have been trying to get User PPP working, have read the html docs, the book and the ppp config files, and I am sure I have done everything correctly but I still cannot get it to work. Whenever I try to execute ppp I get the following message. ld.so failed: Can't find shared library "libdes.3.0" I assume it is a required library but it is not on my system, and I haven't managed to locate it on any of the CDROM's. I am running FreeBSD 2.2.6 with my own compiled kernel (but it never worked with the generic kernel either). The ppp.log is empty. ifconfig -a reports that tun0 is OK. If you need to know my hardware configuration I have kept a copy of dmesg.today which is attached as dmesg.txt. This file has had any obviously irrelevant lines deleted to make it easier to read. Any help will be much appreciated.

Now I just got version 2.2.8 (Walnut Creek). My question how do I upgrade it? I read it from a person in the freebsd mailing list that it is quite hard to do so especially the ".elf" thing. What's that? and Is this true? OR I just simply run /stand/sysinstall, put the 2.2.8 it and proceed till the end? Please advise.

Yes, boot from the CD if your PC can, if not make a boot floppy and boot from that, then select upgrade from the install menu, select the distributions you want (i.e. the same as you already have) and let it run > Thanks > You're welcome > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message -- Trust the computer industry to shorten Year 2000 to Y2K.

We are presently using a BOCA 33.6 external fax/data modem at our server end (host) and CODEX MOTOROLA 3265 modem at the client end. The setup is configured to deliver and receive mail from the client side via uucp. This setup is and has been working successfully. We are in the process of replacing the Motorola modem with BOCA modem. On an experimental basis we had connected another BOCA modem at the client end, thereby attempting to achieve connectivity from BOCA to BOCA. Unfortunately this is not working. Below is the complete listing of relevant files on the server and client end which will better aid you in helping us. Thanks in advance. Milind Bajekal Rolta India Ltd.

I am not too sure about sound libraries, but you probably should be using the pcm sound driver. -- Nathan Ahlstrom nrahlstr@winternet.com Run FreeBSD: http://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 Thu Jan 7 08:04:03 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA02121 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 08:04:03 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from dart.sr.se (dart.SR.SE [193.12.91.98]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA02083 for ; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 08:03:55 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gunnar@pluto.sr.se) Received: from honken.sr.se ([134.25.128.27]) by dart.sr.se (8.9.1/8.9.0) with ESMTP id RAA16627; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 17:03:00 +0100 (MET) Received: from pluto.sr.se (pluto.SR.SE [134.25.193.91]) by honken.sr.se (8.7.5/8.7.3) with ESMTP id RAA26032; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 17:02:59 +0100 (MET) Received: (from gunnar@localhost) by pluto.sr.se (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA21737; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 17:02:59 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from gunnar) Message-ID: <19990107170259.B21199@sr.se> Date: Thu, 7 Jan 1999 17:02:59 +0100 From: Gunnar Flygt To: Todd Arno Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Sources for Neomagic xserver Reply-To: flygt@sr.se References: <000b01be3a45$e9decdc0$349e46ab@tarno> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93.2i In-Reply-To: <000b01be3a45$e9decdc0$349e46ab@tarno>; from Todd Arno on Thu, Jan 07, 1999 at 08:59:14AM -0500 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Thu, Jan 07, 1999 at 08:59:14AM -0500, Todd Arno wrote: > Could you please tell me where I can find sources to support Neomagic 2200 > in Xservers.

Thanks for your help. I think it's mentioned if you look at http://www.xfree86.org As far as I remember it should be ste XF86_SVGA server.

This is one of those occasions, but I solved it before I sent it. :) I'm sending it now, so that it gets archived and may help someone else in the future. --- here's the bit I typed as I thought --- I've checked the archives and can't find anything relevant. I'm running Communicator 4.06 on FreeBSD 2.2.1-RELEASE. If I have Java enabled, and go to a page where there is an applet available, an error dialog pops up with the following message:- # Error: The server's certificate has an invalid signature. You will not be able to connect to this site securely. (-8182) # jar file: /usr/local/lib/netscape/java/classes/java40.jar # path: /usr/local/lib/netscape/java/classes/java40.jar After which it locks out Communicator completely, and I have to kill it off. This of course leads to a lock file being left, which brings to the next interesting part. If I remove the lock file and run Communicator again, I obviously get the same problem. If I leave the lock file in place, and proceed with running Communicator, the applet loads and runs without any problems. This leads me to believe that it has something to do with the certs or key db files, due to the "2nd" copy not being able to access these things. --- this is as far as I got -- Thinking about that last paragraph got me wondering if any of my certificates imported due to using S/MIME had messed up the settings. They hadn't. Cutting a long story short, and borrowing the 'secmodule.db' file from another user, I had found that within Generic Crypto Svcs of the Internal PKCS#11 Module of the Securoty dialog, I had disabled DES and MD2. Enabling these again got java working as much as it does "normally". Like I said, I hope this helps someone in the future. - Dave.

And is there stress testing that can be run on the network? You probably have a cabling problem. Find the machines with ethernet addresses 00:c0:7b:4e:a2:6d and 00:40:10:07:1c:d9 and replace their cables with known good cables. Use arp -a to find the IP addresses from ethernet addresses. You can also search the -hackers mail archives for a very recent discussion ov the above problem. Search for "comments on de driver error message".

Am I wrong? Is Compaq *worth* the cost difference? Understand, my experience with them goes back so far to be less applicable than it should be, but I still haven't forgiven Compaq for any of the times I've had to use one. I have not had one better-than-negative Compaq experience in 5 years of consulting (I haven't had to deal with any of them in several years, since now I'm mostly a programmer/administrator). Part of it was that Compaq used to try *WAY* to hard too lock you into using their parts only, to the point that you couldn't use a non-Compaq IDE hard drive in some of their machines. The other part is that back in the days that DOS was king in the office, and Windows was just starting to be common, you'd be amazed at the numerous programs that just weren't happy on Compaq hardware. Once we had to put a new video card in a Compaq, because the fax software was displaying the faxes white-on-white, but only on the Compaq machine. Of course, the customer was none too happy about this, because since the video was integrated on the motherboard, Compaq saw no reason to provide any slots that weren't ISA, so the video was a little bit slower. They may have changed as all of this is dated, but in my experience, I tend not to trust any of the major manufacturers, and prefer ASUS MB with Adaptec SCSI myself. Have you ever tried to get HP tech support on a computer that was either not running Windows or Netware, or had any non-HP hardware in it? I was working for an authorized reseller and kept getting "We don't support that, replace it with HP equipment" answers.

Am I wrong? Is Compaq *worth* the cost difference? I've got 2 Compaq DeskPro 2000's running Stable. They've been FreeBSD machines since 2.1.0. For the most part, they work pretty well. I've got 2940UW in both, one boots from it the other has IDE as well. One has 64 meg the other 32 meg. Some of the problems: 1) No matter what, you have to build a specific kernel to handel meg over 16. Compaq's BIOS doesn't report memory right. 2) One of them can't reboot without a power off. I also have an IBM Intellistation Z Pro that has the same problem. I know there have been some others over the years, but they slip my mind. Oh, cache didn't seem to work right. I couldn't make buildworld before that was fixed up to not hammer cache so much. Personally, I'd rather have something else. I like the Intellistation's. And some Dell's we have (not running Unix) look good from a fit and finish perspective. -- @@ @@@@ @ @@@@ @@ @@@@ @@ @@ @@ @@@@ @ @@ @@@@@@ @@@ @@@ @@@@@@ @@@@@@ @@@@ @@@@@@ @@@@@@@@ @@@@@ @@@@@@ @@@@@@@@@ @@@@@ @@@@@@@ @@@@@ @@@@@@ @@@@@ @@@@ @@@@@@ @@@@@@@@@@@@ SHIN, spirit-mind.

Microsoft OSes have to exist in the first slice (fdisk) on the disk. It can't handle things otherwise. That's what I guess your problem is. You'll need to move freebsd to the second, third or fourth slice and put NT on the first. And you don't have to worry about uninstalling it. Microsoft automatically, and without warning will delete your boot manager, when it installs one of it's OSes. Keep repeating to yourself, "Microsoft knows best." Someday, someone will believe it. -- An aad may have made this posting invalid To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 7 12:49:15 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA04321 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 12:49:15 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from chopin.seattleu.edu (chopin.seattleu.edu [206.81.198.70]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA04310 for ; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 12:49:12 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from hodeleri@seattleu.edu) Received: from seattleu.edu ([172.17.41.90]) by chopin.seattleu.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id MAA05075; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 12:40:11 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <36951B92.D9481E31@seattleu.edu> Date: Thu, 07 Jan 1999 12:39:46 -0800 From: Eric Hodel X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "K.

Although SCO and FBSD can run some of the same binaries, they really come from two totally different branches of the Unix tree. SCO comes from the AT&T sysv branch, and there are countless incompatibilities in the internals. Besides, 99.999% of the SCO-compatible drivers are available in compiled binary form only. (Remember, 'c' compiler is extra with SCO.)

Well, if ye are referring to the devel ports, which judging from yer quoted versionnumber is what yer trying to do, then I think that maybe Andreas or Vanilla might have been succesful (Vanilla is the port maintainer). Andreas and I are testing Vanilla's ports and trying to get bugs out of the Gtk install stuff. (Andreas and/or Vanilla might want to correct me on this). I have been trying to migrate/report back incompatibility bugs in the sources and makefiles. I haven't tried my hand at the latest Gtk (post 1.1.9), but will do so tomorrow and in the weekend.

You can put your code into /etc/daily or /etc/weekly. You can also right you crontab such that it runs the script at the appointed time. There is no "most proper" way, although I would say that if your stuff is weekly, then use /etc/weekly. Also, 3.0 puts this stuff into /etc/periodic/weekly and so forth.

I went to netscape via ftp and found the unsupported netscape 4.5 version and downloaded it. The full name of the file was: navigator-v45-export.x86-unknown-freebsd.tar.gz and it downloaded the whole thing successfully. However, when I went to uncompress it, the file was named: navigator-v45-export.x86-unknown-freebsd.tar missing the ".gz" ending. So, the problem is, how to I go about uncompressing the file and setting it up in X-Windows? Do I have to re-download it? Everything seemed normal with the ftp transfer, all the way down to the names and numbers, but on my system that is what happened. Thanks for any help.

Now, all you need to do is untar it: $ tar xvf nav*tar (assuming you have no other filenames that would get caught by that). I think this creates a subdirectory (if it doesn't, it should) with the various files in it; cd into it, then RTFM. ct To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 7 16:14:27 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA00608 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 16:14:27 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from d132-h017.rh.rit.edu (d132-h017.rh.rit.edu [129.21.132.145]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA00603 for ; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 16:14:24 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from vega@d132-h017.rh.rit.edu) Received: from localhost (vega@localhost) by d132-h017.rh.rit.edu (8.9.1/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA01647; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 19:08:06 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from vega@d132-h017.rh.rit.edu) Date: Thu, 7 Jan 1999 19:08:06 -0500 (EST) From: VEGA To: "N.

Also, there is an even better way to install netscape. first gzip the tar file that you have move it to /usr/ports/distfiles cd to /usr/ports/www/netscape45-communigator make install FreeBSD will take care of installation for you. The above presumes that you have the ports collection installed. You do, don't you? :) Ports are the very best way to handle software installation for FreeBSD.

I honestly don't think these two items are related. My SVGA server spits out the exact same message when it exits, but it has never affected the operation or restartability of it. It might be nice to know what it thinks it's fixing and why it thinks it has to do it each and every time.... ct To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 7 17:21:23 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA08238 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 17:21:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from servidor.exsocom.com.mx (servidor.exsocom.com.mx [200.34.46.130]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id RAA08231 for ; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 17:21:21 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from agalindo@servidor.exsocom.com.mx) Received: from servidor.exsocom.com.mx (servidor.exsocom.com.mx [200.34.46.130]) by servidor.exsocom.com.mx (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id TAA06952 for ; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 19:27:27 GMT (envelope-from agalindo@servidor.exsocom.com.mx) Date: Thu, 7 Jan 1999 19:27:27 +0000 (GMT) From: Alejandro Galindo Chairez AGALINDO To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: PROMISC 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, how can i reset a network interface for remove the promisc mode?

On the other hand, it does come in handy sometimes. Just today I got a call from some marketing droid trying to push his product. I asked what platforms it ran on. "WinNT and Solaris". He asked what we were running. "FreeBSD". He ended that call real fast! > Firstly, we would need specialized drivers. I wondered if anyone > out in the FreeBSD world might have some experience in using > these arrays with a FreeBSD system. Anyway, back to the topic at hand. I just took a look at http://www.clariion.com and it appears that their products are SCSI- SCSI RAID, which means they shouldn't require any special OS support. In fact, they even say "Vendor-independent architecture accommodates a wide variety of hosts" and "Host Interface: 16-bit SCSI-2 @ 20 MB/s". If they insist that it requires specialized drivers, you might want to look into a system using CMD RAID controllers. Their controllers truly are OS-independent. (Disclaimer: I've never actually used a CMD controller. However, I have discussed the (lack of) OS requirements with their technicians, and I plan to buy two of their controllers for use with FreeBSD once I get the budget approved.)

The First Edition didn't have so many long man pages. I think the better approach would be to consider a man pages book. We had thought of this back in 1995, but we never got round to doing it. What do you people think? The question isn't ``is it a good idea?'', it's ``would you buy one?''.

Also, when I attempt to add one of the packages in the back of the HandBook (Appendix D), it always says it cant find the specified name. The packages I am interested in are: netscape-communicator-4.04 nedit-5.0 xfmail-1.1 One hint is that when I mount the cdrom and actually look for the packages on the first CD-ROM, I cant find the ones I am looking for, or atleast the higher versions listed in Appendix D, and when I went for a post-install configuration through /stand/sysinstall, this is the error I got: The version of the disc in the cd-rom drive is not current and is probably earlier that version 2.1.5, even though I have 2.2.5. Should I be using the first or fourth cd? Thanks for any help. Everyone has been great so far helping me.

Perhaps, except that I am not running an X server. My problems are at the console.. which is why I mentioned syscons and switching vty's, not using the "Zoom" feature of an X server. I can reproduce the problem by rapidly switching vty's (using alt-Fkey). Just hold down your alt key, while pounding on the Fkeys corresponding to the enabled vty's in /etc/ttys. After about a minute or two of bashing the keys, the console/keyboard should freeze (well, at least in my case). Of course, this problem was noticed after several days worth of regular tty-switching, not by pounding on the keys from boredom :) In the mean time, I've ordered some more Microsoft(R) Natural(R)(TM)(SM) 3|337(SM)(TM)(R) keyboards to do some more testing (I don't have another 2.2.8R machine to test on).

Its a FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE system (needed the 16 character usernames) with an assortment of goodies. But I've hit a snag. Most of the people who I have to support will never allow themselves to learn enough to use Pine, passwd, du, and so forth. As a result, I'm making a collection of Intranet style CGIs, using IMAP, etc. and keeping them out of telnet. But I have no way to allow them to change their passwords. I did find a CGI in the mailing list archives, but it won't work correctly. It uses Perl5 and accesses a poppassd process over a network socket. However, as soon as it makes a call to cgi-lib.pl, it stops sending output to the server. (STDOUT should go to apache, so that apache can hand it off to the web browser.) As far as I can tell, its not producing an error. I must assume, based on a tip in the apache FAQ, that STDOUT is being redirected to the wrong place. If I just stick cgi-lib.pl at the bottom of the script, it makes an error. The error is "Request to receive too much data: 73 bytes". So, my question is can someone either (1) tell me how to give my users the ability to change their password without giving them telnet or (2) tell me what I'm going wrong with the script found at: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=200807+207835+/user /local/www/db/text/1998/freebsd-questions /19981206.freebsd-questions The help is greatly appreciated.

I wondered if anyone > out in the FreeBSD world might have some experience in using > these arrays with a FreeBSD system. I have not used my StorageTek (a.k.a. Clariion, two eyes, right?) RAID with FreeBSD but your salesman is full of hot air and not worthy of the sale. The Clariion RAID hardware I have has a serial port that speaks plain old vt100 @ 9600 baud and can be used to anything the whiz-bang fancy GUI sorry interface they provide. Field service personnel prefer the serial interface. I got mine working before reverting to the serial interface myself, but have seen it used. Once configured the RAIDs you have set up simply appear as whatever LUN you have configured them on. The box remembers and doesn't have to be told at each power cycle. And in normal use all of the "special" software is turned off unless you want to read statistics off the thing. In my case they got the fonts so badly wrongly sized it is almost impossible to use their GUI anyhow. Instructions provided for changing the X default font size resource haven't worked either. Now where super special software comes into play is where they support SCSI bus failure and fallback to a redundant SCSI bus. My racks have (2) RAID processors (100 MHz PowerPC 603e's) with one external SCSI bus each, but both of these CPU's are connected to the internal 5 SCSI buses where the drives connect. Ie: either RAID CPU can access any of the 30 drive bays in the package. Catch-22: when I last bothered to ask, they didn't support the redundant fallback SCSI bus stuff on SGI Irix. Doubt I'd have complicated my system with it even if it was available. My SGI system already has 13 SCSI buses. Final-nail-in-coffin: The drives come in a neat hotswap caddy. You can't buy these caddies without a Clariion HD inside at just over twice the street price of similar drive. Plus the drives I have are a model of narrow FAST IBM drive exactly the twin of the FAST Wide drive in my FreeBSD box. But with Clariion custom firmware. Found out the firmware 1) is hard coded for 520 byte blocks, and 2) doesn't honor the standard SCSI bad block mapping commands. 3) a low level format doesn't eliminate or map out the bad blocks that are there. And they make a big deal about the RAID CPU boot firmware being stashed somewhere on only a few of the drives in the rack. We have a security phobia at work. Standard Procedure is a new HD gets its bad block list recorded before being used. If the HD is defective and has to go elsewhere it doesn't leave if its BB list has grown. If I can't get to the bad block list, then it goes to the crusher. All this means our Clariion HD's will never leave, alive. I didn't chose this hardware. The Powers That Be Decided We Needed It, and one day a semi truck trailer full of stuff arrived. (3) Cygnet 1803 jukeboxes were the bulk of the volume. Somewhere out of the blue they proclaimed we had a requirement for "sustained 100 MB/sec thruput" (this was to feed a T1). Did I mention we have (3) 30 drive bays each with (2) RAID CPUs? But only 8 HD's each (total of 24). To meet the performance requirement the installation crew configured (via serial ports) each rack of 30 to have (3) mirrored drive pairs (RAID 0?), one single drive, and one hot swap (total of 8). Once they left, I reconfigured the drives into 4 sets of RAID 5, two of these were in the same rack but each of those was on a separate CPU. Left one hot swap per rack, and one cold swap on the shelf. Only used 4 of my 6 RAID SCSI CPU's and only 4 of the 6 wide differential SCSI buses going to my SGI 2 CPU R10k Challenge L. Each HD is 9G (actually 8.3, if I recall). So to see how outrageous I could get (plus the user's were crying for disk space) in Irix I configured those (4) RAID 5's into one large striped logical volume of 130G. It was now fairly easy to light 20 HD access lights. But I only got 20 to 25 MB/sec thru the filesystem using dd to write from /dev/zero to a file. :-( If it were my choice I believe I would buy high quality disk drive racks and fill them with quality generic HD's. Pay SGI for their plexing option (software support for hot swap and other things). And build the RAID in software. As a fallback there are those who sell RAID CPU's in a 5-1/4" HH form factor that you could add. If the host were FreeBSD, I'd be talking to Greg Lehey about the commercial options in his vinum driver. Cost a whole lot less. Would get something I stand to make sense of when it fails. Forgot to mention one of the RAID CPU's forgot its config and I had to re-bind it? And rebuild the entire 130G fs from zero? Have to admit the Clariion hardware is first class. Each rack has redundant RAID CPU's (see above, the software wasn't available for this under Irix), redundant power supplies, lots of air flow, and at least 60 seconds of built in UPS so the thing can shut itself down cleanly. -- 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.

Was this a typo? Nope, not at all. My experiences with USRs over the years have not been good. I've repeatedly given them the benifit of the doubt. I've personally owned 4 different models, all the way back to 2400, up to a brand new external 56 v.everything Courier. I've thrown away or given them all away. When I worked for an ISP, USR modems took twice as long to setup on the customers computers, then we also had problems getting them to dial in. Before that, a client had gone out and bought 10 of them for his office and his employees. I ended up replacing 4 of them, sent 3 of them in for BIOS upgrades (at about $45/each or so,) played with 2 more long enough that they finally worked, and only got one to work without problems. Over ten years I've probally replaced at least 50% of all USR modems that came through my hands. Where as my experiences with Zoom have been the exact opposite, no problems what so ever. Now, I'll freely admit that some people have no problems with them. I'm just not one of 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 Jan 7 19:30:53 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA21727 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 19:30:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from modgud.nordicdms.com (h21-168-107.nordicdms.com [207.21.168.107]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id TAA21722 for ; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 19:30:51 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from walton@nordicdms.com) Received: (qmail 16817 invoked by alias); 8 Jan 1999 03:30:21 -0000 Message-ID: <19990108033021.16814.qmail@modgud.nordicdms.com> Received: (qmail 16803 invoked from network); 8 Jan 1999 03:30:20 -0000 Received: from mail-ftp.nordicdms.com (HELO mail-ftp) (207.21.168.100) by mail.nordicdms.com with SMTP; 8 Jan 1999 03:30:20 -0000 From: "Dave Walton" Organization: Nordic Entertainment Worldwide To: Greg Lehey , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Thu, 7 Jan 1999 19:30:20 -0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Subject: Re: Complete FreeBSD, 3rd edition (was: Printed man pages (was: Looking for the best webmaster.))

It's always hard to resist creeping features, even when the "features" are man pages. I'd suggest setting a strict, inviolable limit of 200 pages at most for man pages, and including only the most critical system repair commands. For example, include ed instead of vi. There are times when you can't use vi, so ed is more critical. Not to mention that vi takes 20 pages! (For those who think 200 pages sounds like a lot, compare to the 2nd edition's 1100 pages!) > I think the better approach would be to consider a man pages book.

I bought the 4.4BSD set. The only time I've used them is when I found myself in a real bind and happened to be at home. They are just too big, and too rarely needed, to carry to jobs. I think I'd feel too guilty about the waste of paper to repeat the purchase. I really think a limited section of the most crucial man pages is the way to go. If it was a separate book, it would be harder to resist "creeping pages" and it would be harder to keep in print due to lower demand.

USR has been pretty good about keeping the command set consistant across models, but admittedly this isn't a concern for many people. :-) Just out of curiousity, has your good luck been with internal or external Zooms, or both? When I was in tech support we tried to steer people clear of all the modems starting with Z.

Was this a typo? I got a USR 33.6 (internal) for about a hundred a while back, thinking that USR is the best. I got it running with no problem, but I got very bad transfer rates with it. I tried it in three OS's with two machines and two ISPs, and the transfer rates I got in all cases were easily beat by the Supra 14.4 from which I was trying to upgrade. I met an ISP guy in a bar who told me that USRs are kind of like MicroSoft. They seems to assume that there's another USR on the other end of the line. He said if I used his ISP, I wouldn't have problems, because all of his modems were USR. I didn't take him up on that. It's hard to send a modem in for repair when it works, even if it doesn't do a very good job. By the time I realized it wasn't simply a matter of setting it up correctly, it was too late to return it. But without sending it in, I don't have any way of knowing if it's faulty or if there's an undocumented init string or something like that. Anyone else ever experience this, or have I been sitting on a faulty piece of gear this whole time? Kenneth J.

Does anybodu here have any tip? Chapter 20 doesn't deal with DNS. That's in chapter 25, which describes the name server. There's very little to set up for the clients. I suppose you could set up /etc/resolv.conf, but that's described on pages 393 and 394. If there's anything else you need to know, tell me.

Well, in fact the problem isn't with tar, it's with System V's file systems, which still limit files to 2 GB, and usually even the file systems can't be larger, though I believe there are exceptions. Of course, this means that having files larger than 2 GB limits their portability.

The chpasswd.cgi script that I found in the mailing list archives is choking on this line: connect(PASSD, $that) || die "connect: $!"; All the print commands in the rest of the script produce no output that the apache server sees. This is where STDOUT should be going. Whether STDOUT isn't aimed there or STDOUT is somehow going to a /dev/null sort of place is what I don't know. Also, if the script is run by hand (./chpasswd.cgi), it will run perfectly. Of course, the flow chart of the program causes it to not execute the "connect" command in that case. So, as far as I can tell, the problem has something to do with connect. Anyone have any ideas?

It wouldn't be hard to sell man-page books if they were sold with "Installing and Running" and the CD as a set. I don't know how that works as far as publi$hing goes, though.

I see the same behavior with 96 MB RAM. Paging heavily on a 96 MB system makes no sense for searches on a tiny web page, so I don't think more RAM is the answer. Unfortunately, I don't have a solution. I don't think IDE vs. SCSI is a solution. I have an all-SCSI system, and in any case I don't think it's relevant. -- Matthew Hunt * Inertia is a property of matter. http://www.pobox.com/~mph/pgp.key for PGP public key 0x67203349.

Anyway removed the crappy device from the equation and it now works. My problem is that I get very slow connection speeds. Using windows NT and FreeBSD kernel ppp I get only 800bytes per second. Using FreeBSD to FreeBSD and the same two devices I get 7.5 average over a 2MB file. I am using an ISDN line, so I would expect 7 would be about the norm. Any ideas what could be causing this slow link - it seems to be the NT box, but my client says that NT is great and couldn't possibly be causing my connection to be so slow. cheers craig To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Jan 7 23:05:39 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id XAA13468 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 23:05:39 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from interntk.kada.lt ([195.22.170.131]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id XAA13459 for ; Thu, 7 Jan 1999 23:05:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dovydas@kada.lt) Received: from intrantk.kada.lan ([10.254.254.2]) by interntk.kada.lt with SMTP (Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service Version 5.5.2232.9) id CQ8X53JC; Fri, 8 Jan 1999 08:03:00 +0100 Received: from kada.lt (DUNIX [10.254.254.25]) by intrantk.kada.lan with SMTP (Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service Version 5.5.2232.9) id CLCT7F4X; Fri, 8 Jan 1999 08:01:58 +0100 Message-ID: <3695BC59.C90D24F8@kada.lt> Date: Fri, 08 Jan 1999 08:05:45 +0000 From: Dovydas Kulvinskas Organization: SLCaR X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: FreeBSD questions Subject: X11amp Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello folks, I'm trying to use different mp3(2) players.

This is what I have tried; 1. 3Com PCI 3c905 card was detected once only .......and now it just doesn't detect at all(after reinstall). 2. 3Com PCI 3c900 card doesn't detect at all either. 3. I have rebuilt the kernel....doesn't detect. 4. fdisk drive and install from CD....doesn't detect.(done several times) 5. The drivers for the ethernet do not show up in the UserConfig only that once that it installed properly via ftp. I don't understand.....can someone help me so I can get FreeBSD install with my cable modem. So I can get rid of the win98. thanks.

OTOH, if my suggestion is some how unacceptable or offensive I'd be happy to continue with my own search page. -- Brian Litzinger To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jan 8 00:13:16 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA20563 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 8 Jan 1999 00:13:16 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from post.mail.demon.net (finch-post-10.mail.demon.net [194.217.242.38]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id AAA20558 for ; Fri, 8 Jan 1999 00:13:14 -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 #1) id 0zyX29-0000lU-00; Fri, 8 Jan 1999 08:12:42 +0000 Organisation: Radan Computational Ltd., Bath, UK.

Due to the nature of the application running on it, we can not upgrade. The kernel is configured for 256 megs of ram, but that is because I thought I might have other issues (bounce buffers) that might be kludging everything up. maxusers is set to 64, maxmem to 256, and I have a few shared memory options but other than that, I have the basic GENERIC kernel. The box uses the vx0 driver for a 3COM905 card running 100 M/bits full duplex and has a Mylex BT-958 SCSI controller with an IBM 4 gig disk with S.M.A.R.T. enabled. The system runs as an nfs client and therefore runs nfsiod -n 4 I am mounting from another FreeBSD box with /sbin/mount -t nfs -o -i,-s,-w=1024 nfs_serv:/u /u or /sbin/mount -t nfs -o -i,-s,-w=1024,-r=8192 nfs_serv:/u /u it does not matter. The nfs server has max open set to 512 which should break RPC calls (but this was working fine before). The nfs server has a raid volume with two partition and mounts both with -noatime for better performance. The nfs client machine hangs and I do not know why. The symptoms are as follows: Console hangs (takes no input nor produces output), tcp/ip stack is still up and responds to ping. Telnet only gets this far _ Trying 192.168.22.193... Connected to host246.agcs.com. Escape character is '^]'. That's it. cntl-alt-delete will sometime reboot but not always. Any ideas what I might be running into? I have looked at pstat -T, netstat -m, swapinfo, top, but nothing out of the normal and it does not look like I hit an limits. I have set up the login.conf file so that both root and default users have infinity (unlimited) everything. I did this because I thought I was hitting some type of limit that was not showing up in the pstat, netstat, nor fstat. I do not know what to do next. Any ideas would be appreciated. I have ktrace enabled, but do not know how to use it. I suspect that maybe there is an nfs issue with the FreeBSD NFS server having maxopen set to 512 and possible rpc issues. I had the nfs client (machine that hangs) set that way for a while, but that did not make things better nor worse. The system just gets to a point where everything stop working, and there is plenty of memory left, and no signs of trouble nor a panic in the logs. I have swapped out the memory as well as the ethernet card once before. Thanks for any help you can offer. Please email with ideas or suggestions. Thanks again and I hope I posted this question to the right areas.

I think he was having a problem with 4.5, but I've had it with 4.0x as well. I don't *think* it's a RAM problem, as other memory intensive processes such as `make world' or Gimp run no problem, Nutscrape however tends to keel over randomly about twice a day. I thought it might have been a problem with it being Fortified, but reverting to the export-grade version didn't improve matters. Has anybody else been having this problem, or have any inkling what the cause might be? I *have* had a few problems with the CD-ROM locking up if the ZIP drive is enabled (though nowhere as frequently as used to be), but the Netscape problems don't seem to be concurrent with those.

Greg, I'd rather see a set of 2 (or more) books: 1) Install & Conf Handbook 2) FreeBSD MAN I have a well thumbed Linux MAN on the table next to me (underneath my SSC System V Command Reference...) It's a bit of a pyramid with your 2nd E as the base - not due to frequency of usage but simply its girth. ;-) I really like the size and constuction of the WGS Linux MAN book. Even tho my eyes complain about the smaller text of the thing it is *comprehensive* and the size of a quick reference (albeit overfed.) The SSC guide is allegedly pocket size but it is simply too small... Conversely, The Complete FreeBSD is hernia material! Looking forward to volume 3, no matter the format!

Only thing (well, among some other limitations) is that it limits the dot-clock to 100 Mhz (this chipset allows up to 170), and usually, after a while, some pixels get corrupted (like some of the card's RAM seems to be leaking away; I've played around with various options, but it keeps happening), so I have to refresh the screen now and then. I've never had the blanking-symptom, though. Anybody know wether these drivers have been updated in Xfree86 3.3.3? To the team: THANK YOU and keep it up (please)! g.

I would think that it would. Obviously, your in RFC 1483 bridge mode (we're not doing PPP yet). Do you have a 675 or an old Speedrunner? I use Wide-dhcp on our systems here. It works fine with a dhcp server (sun with Cisco Server Suite). I assume that it would work over the dsl line. Do you have uswest.net or another provider. I have my 675 in PPP mode so I can't truely test freebsd with it. I'm also on travel next week, and have some things to clean up today. So, unfortunately, I don't have much time to try it out. When we go to ppp with nat instead of bridge mode. You will be just choose an address out of 10.0.0.1/24 (the ethernet on the 675 will be 10.0.0.1 and dhcp will hand out starting at 10.0.0.2). That should happen sometime in 1999, I wish I knew when. -- Paul T.

Recently we decided to use the good photoprinter connected to that machine from our FreeBSD machines and (more important) from our Win* machines (through Samba and BSD server). The problem is that BSD-compatible printing system is not installed on that Indy. There is of course a way to implement certain rsh-based magic to teach samba to print on it. However, this is a long and nasty way to do it, and we have several IRIX EFS CD's with lpd on one of them. But SGI machine does not have a CD-ROM! It also does not have C compiler installed (it's on those CDs, too), so a bunch of other options is out of the question, too. :-( My question is - is it possible in some way to mount EFS CDs on FreeBSD machine?

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I sent this query to questions@freebsd.org but later noticed that, according to the web site, it should have been "freebsd-questions@freebsd.org" so I'm going to try again. I apologize if the two aliases are the same and this appears twice. I could use some advice about a problem I'm experiencing with FreeBSD 2.1.5 at the moment. Yes, I know--I should upgrade. Which is what brings me to my questions. I've finally added a decent tape drive to my system so I can backup /home prior to upgrade. I've bought an ExaByte 8700LT because I have some tapes from another system that I'll want to get data from. To test it, I've dumped and restored a file system containing about 44MB to a vacant file system. No problem so far. In the following, /var.226 is the file system that I dumped and /home.215 is that to which I restored it. What I want to do now is to compare the restored file system with the original: PC% sudo diff -r /var.226 /home.215 diff: memory exhausted PC% This isn't the first time that has happened. I'll append information about my system at the end but, for now, I have 48MB of memory and, I think, plenty of swap: PC% swapinfo Device 512-blocks Used Avail Capacity Type /dev/sd0s2b 163840 0 163712 0% Interleaved /dev/sd1s1b 524288 0 524160 0% Interleaved Total 687872 0 687872 0% PC% As you can see, I'm not using any swap.

I >have tried playing around with the MX records, but I get errors like mail >looping back (MX problem?) etc. I assume that the MX record you listed refers to the zone of your domain, webace.com.au. That record causes all the e-mail for user@domain (i.e. john.smith@webace.com.au) to be received by barney, so OK: barney is your central, unique mail server. When someone sends a message to john.smith@prth2.webace.com.au, the message is correctly delivered to prth2, not barney. You need another MX record for prth2, with a lower priority, only if you want to set up prth2 as a backup mail server. If you want to specify that messages for john.smith@webace.com.au must be delivered to barney and messages for jack.stone@webace.com.au must be delivered to prth2, one simple way is to set up sendmail on barney to use prth2 as the relay for unknown users. Remember to specify webace.com.au as recognized in both sendmail configurations. --- Stefano Riva Software Engineer - Systems Administrator Informazioni Editoriali I.E.

You have a bunch of useful didactic stuff on things like TCP/IP (the latter could be expanded a little, to include things like ICMP), serial communication. I would like to see a bit on the FFS (what are inodes? blocks/frags? fragmentation issues? links? sync/async? soft updates? how do directories point to files? types of files? free space? etc.???). I've been referred to McKusick et al.'s paper in the docs, but it's hardly penetrable for a beginner. As a newbie, I would find the following useful: A complete list of (user ?) commands/programs available in the standard installation. You could include (with an asterisk, say) a few important commands/programs in the ports, although that is obviously a slippery slope, and the online ports info already provides a categorized list. The list should be organized both (i) alphabetically and (ii) by function/subfunction (e.g., editors / network / files, listing / files, control / files, manipulation / backup and restore / system status / ...). Each command should be followed by a capsule description (e.g., ed: basic editor / ex: simple editor / vi: advanced editor / emacs*: celestial editor). Where a command overlaps categories, it should be listed in all applicable. I realize such a listing could be placed in the realm of "general UNIX stuff" (not FreeBSD specific), and considered outside the scope of "The Complete FreeBSD". OTOH, none of my general UNIX books has this feature, and many users of your book are presumably newbies, who can use all the help they can get. I find I can do just fine from the man pages in many cases, if only I know the *name* of the command to look up (e.g., I want to view files in text or hex, or find files - half the battle is knowing that a given command *exists*). UNIX text books are often far too discursive for quick answers, and then the answers they give are often incomplete, necessitating a trip to the man pages anyway. Plus not everyone can afford a whole slew of expensive computer books. BTW, apropos returns capsule command descriptions like what I am suggesting - is there a complete list of this form in a single file somewhere? Regarding a separate man pages book, I would definitely buy a copy. I would like such a volume to be as complete as possible, but I note that if you open V2 of The Complete FreeBSD to show the man pages, it's already pretty substantial on that thin paper (which is not so durable). The command list suggested above could be included (with page numbers where applicable), preferably up front as a table of contents/index.

It shows on setup that it is using cc -c -I. -I. -O -pipe -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DSETPROCTITLE -DKEEP_TEMP_DROP -DBSD44_DBM -DBIND43 -DBULLDB -DNONAUTHFILE='"/etc/ftpusers"' -DSKEY pop_rpop.c -o pop_rpop.o APOP is enabled. And after reading some docs it appears that the APOP may be the thing that is not allowing me to have popper just look at passwords somewhere other that /etc/ftpusers. Can anyone tell me how to fix this. I have looked at the Makefile but I dont know how to disable the APOP. If in fact that is not my problem, please tell me where I am going wrong.

Development and additions to the kernel would go much faster if we had some starting point directly related to FBSD instead of buying generalized books and having to read the source code. This is part of the reason linux is so successful and don't see any reason why FBSD can't do the same. > > > [ licia@o-o.org ] [ http://www.o-o.org/ ] [ IrcNick : Licia ] > [ A happy user of FreeBSD : http://www.freebsd.org/ ] > [ Why crawl through windows when you can walk through a door? ] > [ This user boycotts all Microsoft products and services ] > > > 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 Fri Jan 8 07:33:34 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id HAA07592 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 8 Jan 1999 07:33:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from rfc.comm.harris.com (adm01.rfc.comm.harris.com [147.177.128.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id HAA07583 for ; Fri, 8 Jan 1999 07:33:30 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from BDoehner@harris.com) Received: from rfcmx1.rfc.comm.harris.com (rfcmx1.rfc.comm.harris.com [147.177.4.6]) by rfc.comm.harris.com (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id KAA144910 for ; Fri, 8 Jan 1999 10:32:55 -0500 Received: by rfcmx1.rfc.comm.harris.com with Internet Mail Service (5.0.1458.49) id ; Fri, 8 Jan 1999 10:32:54 -0500 Message-ID: From: "Doehner, Bernard" To: "'questions@freebsd.org'" Cc: "'bad@uhf.wireless.net'" Subject: limiting swap space via login.conf Date: Fri, 8 Jan 1999 10:32:53 -0500 X-Priority: 3 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.0.1458.49) Content-Type: text/plain Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello... OS Version: FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE Trying to limit per process swap space utilization to 20MB, but there doesn't seem to be a login.conf variable to do this.. Or is it just undocumented? Is there another method to accomplish this? I thought I'd be able to use: memoryuse and memorylocked (with memoryuse-memorylocked=swap space), but they don't seem to apply on a per process basis, as I was able to calloc array's much larger than the memoryuse limits. Is there something I need to turn on in order to make memoryuse/locked WORK, or is it not on a per process basis? (Yes, I did cap_mkdb after lowering the memoryuse limits for the user class in question). datasize, however did work, and caused the calloc to fail if I tried to allocate greater than datasize space to an array. Any pointer much appreciated. Please Cc: bad@uhf.wireless.net with replies. Thanks.

I have a PCI Ethernet card, which is (as noticed in its manual) NE2000-compatible. But it's not possible to specify its bus I/O address neither with jumpers nor with any setup program - there isn't EPROM on the card. So, I described it as: controller pci0 device ed0 at pci? When system is booting, it founds this card, but as ed1, not ed0 ! Why? No error messages generating neither during building system nor during booting; network interface ed1 works good.Can I make this card ed0 ? How should I specify it in the config file? Sincerely yours, Mark.

I presumed that that was for the AMD PCnet/PCI (79c970 & 53c974 or 79c974) as mentioned in the 2.2.8 Release info. I tried it and the card was recognized as lnc1 rather than lnc0. I also presume that the reason for that is that the lnc0 line in the kernel is for an ISA card. Anyway, the card works but does cause the kernel to display an error message as follows: <0.3> babel /kernel lnc1: Heartbeat Error -- SQE test failed This error is reported thousands of times (truthfully) during a ftp of around 48MB (and at other times too) but doesn't prevent packets from being transmitted or received. I mention this in hopes that this information will be useful for improving the driver code and adding support for more ethernet cards.

I wondered what other people's experience was in this area. Generally, I've always used good ol' reliable "dump" and "restore" from individual machines. However, as your server farm grows, that approach isn't feasible (unless you love switching little 4mm tapes or can spend $$ for lots of DLT drives). Add to that, multi-platforms such as Solaris, Windoze, ... Some commercial products, like ADSM, run a daemon on a given machine which will dump its disk drive (or what you specify) to a remote disk drive -- then, in turn, the tape system writes that to tape. But for a large enterprise system, you'd need a backend network at least for that. I'd appreciate suggestions in this area. Thanks.

Netscape's find just appears to suck. I've got lots of memory and asking it to do a find in an even moderately large file stinks. You're better off saving the file and using grep/vi/more to find the thing you want in the file you've saved and then go back to find it in Netscape after you've figured out where it is.

I was wondering if you could help me out. I have a "real" partition of about 1535 M set up on my 3.6Gig Harddrive as freebsd. It is behind my DOS partition, starting at say block # 3153024. It is formated as a type 165 ,called freebsd in Partition Magic. My problem is this: During the FreeBSD installation process I need to create the "slices" for the file systems and swap space. Using their window (label maker or something like that), I have the ability to say 20M, FileSystem, and "/" as a mount point. I'm using "/", "/usr", "/var" as mount points. At that point, I get the error "FreeBSD is unable to deal with this location or the partition is too big". Doesn't matter what size I use. I get "too big" for everything, including the swap space, which I'm trying to size as 130M (2xRAM amount). I followed the instructions to try and make / 20M, and to create a /var, etc,etc, but all the file systems receive the same error messages. Do you know what to do?

There are two issues here: what should be in the main book and is there a call for a man pages book? I'd be happy to see the man pages for those very few programs that you might have to run when the man pages really were not available on line remain in the main book -- e.g., BSDI devote about 60 pages for this purpose and that seems more than enough. I'd buy the 3rd edition to replace my 2nd edition if it was cut down to something like that.

I have a root, usr, and var filesystem. Unfortunately, my clairvoyance failed me the day I installed and my partitions are not idealing dividing the available space. The usr partition is esentially full and var has lots of unused space. My plan is to split var into a 'home' and new var partition. var is small enough that I can temporarily save it in the root directory. I think I know how to do this, but I wanted to pass my plan past the mail list before I lose all my data through some small oversight. My plan is to: 1) Copy the old /var to its temporary space keeping the time where I have no /var to a minimum. root# mkdir /var_new root# cp -Rp /var /var_new root# umount /var root# rmdir /var root# mv /var_new /var 2) Rewrite the disklabel (scary part). This has to be done right! To ensure that, this is the file I will give to disklabel. Please let me know if there are mistakes. root# more newlabel # /dev/rwd0c: type: ESDI disk: wd0s2 label: flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 63 tracks/cylinder: 128 sectors/cylinder: 8064 cylinders: 266 sectors/unit: 2145024 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # milliseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds drivedata: 0 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 65536 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 8*) b: 262144 65536 swap # (Cyl. 8*- 40*) c: 2145024 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 265) # Old entry: # e: 614400 327680 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 40*- 116*) f: 1202944 942080 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 116*- 265*) # New entries: e: 38400 327680 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 40*- ???*) g: 576000 366080 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. ??? - 265) root# disklabel -R -r wd0 newlabel 3) OK, now the above was scary because if it is messed up, this next step will be disasterous. Put file systems on the new partitions. root# newfs /dev/wd0s2e root# newfs /dev/wd0s2g 4) Now move back /var. root# mv /var /var_tmp root# mkdir /var root# mount /var root# cp -Rp /var_tmp /var 5) That is all of the critical stuff. I'll use the same procedure to move /home and then update /etc/fstab. OK, so what am I missing? What did I screw up? Or where am I totally off base? Thanks. PS: Since I am going to be rewriting my disklabel, is there anything else that's nice to have that's not there? Specifically, should I give the volume a label? -- Crist J.

In moving from orphaned hardware to FreeBSD, I lost a truly wonderfull browser. However, NetScape seems to be the best available GUI browser. I'm looking for other suggestions as to what to run on FreeBSD. I've tried Emacs-w3 (can't stand loosing emacs while large pages are loading) and Grail (doersn't display the on-line Python pages correctly). Anyone want to recommend some others?

I partly agree with this. If there's a lot of stuff I want to learn, a book is nice, which is why I've just bought the Camel book.

Haven't had any problems w/ RedHat, been running it for a couple of months. However I have encountered a bit of a problem when installing FreeBSD. I am installing on a Pentium 166 w/ 64M RAM, 2.5G Seagate Barracuda SCSI HD and Plextor 12-Plex SCSI CD [Adaptec 2940 PCI controller]. I can wade through the Novice installation until I get to where I choose my installation media. When I choose CD-ROM, I am informed that I do not have a supported CD-ROM available. I can start the installation from the bootable CD-ROM so I know the hardware is set-up correctly. I figure I'm doing something wrong, but I can't see what. I talked to a friend of mine who knows Unix and he said to try entering the device manually, so I chose the other File System option and entered /dev/cd0 as the filesystem. It appeared to install (although it did tell me that some of the packages I selected couldn't be found on my install media, so I knew something was up), but when I rebooted it said that it couldn't find a kernel. I created a bootable floppy and ran the install from there with the same results. Whenever I choose my Install Media, I'm told that my CD-ROM isn't supported. My understanding is that any SCSI CD or HD is supported - and RedHat installs w/o a hitch. That tells me that I'm doing something wrong during the install, but other than UserConfig, there isn't much that I do. Can you help? Thanks in advance. Samuel f.

Anyone want to recommend some others? GUI or not GUI? I use Nutscrape when I'm feeling lazy or the site is unviewable in Lynx, and it looks like I've just given away what my other choice of browser is. I've also tried Chimera, and didn't like it that much (can't remember why). Mosaic is a lot faster and more reliable than Netscape, its only real downside is that it doesn't know about tables. I looked at Arena as well, didn't like it. It looks like Nutscrape is the best available, so that must really show how bad the rest are :-( At least Microsoft haven't thrust their useless offering on the unix world :-) -- 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 Jan 8 16:28:47 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA17376 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 8 Jan 1999 16:28:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ns2.vpinet.net (ns2.vpinet.net [209.76.252.7]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA17332 for ; Fri, 8 Jan 1999 16:28:35 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from support@vpinet.net) Received: from vpinet.net ([209.76.252.191]) by ns2.vpinet.net (8.8.7/8.8.4) with ESMTP id RAA16508 for ; Fri, 8 Jan 1999 17:28:42 -0800 Message-ID: <3696A27F.C4DAF22@vpinet.net> Date: Fri, 08 Jan 1999 16:27:43 -0800 From: VPINET X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (Win98; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: ???

No. If you have enough space on the IRIX machine, you could dd the complete CD image to a partition and mount it as EFS. That's about the only solution I can think of offhand.

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 # mount /usr mount /usr file system (if separate) # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup If you have a separate /usr file system (the normal case), you need to mount it as well, since the passwd program is in the directory /usr/bin. Note also that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Thanks to Sue Blake for correcting this addendum. 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 Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the corresponding individual files. In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environment variables at a global level. Changing your shell ___________________ The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing. See page 148 for details of how to enable it. You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection. You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash, also in the Ports Collection. If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's an example before: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /bin/csh Full Name: Jack Velte Location: Office Phone: Home Phone: You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this to: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash Full Name: Jack Velte Location: On the road Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999 Page 9 Install ports when installing the system 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 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 Page 10 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition You can then change the shell for root as described above. Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. 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. ____________________ [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 Page 176 ________ Add the following paragraph Unmounting file systems When you mount a file system, the system assumes it is going to stay there, and in the interests of efficiency it delays writing data back to the file system. This is the same effect we discussed on page 158. As a result, if you want to stop using a file system, you need to tell the system about it. You do this with the umount command. Note the spelling--there's no n in the command name. You need to do this even with read-only media such as CD-ROMs: the system 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: Page 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label. Page 208, middle of page ________________________ The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and /dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use /dev/nrst0 with any shell if you want a non-rewinding tape, or /dev/rst0 if you want a rewinding tape. Thanks to Norman C Rice for pointing out this one. Page 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. By default it isn't started at boot time. 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. Another line in rc.conf refers to the line printer daemon: lpd_flags="" # Flags to lpd (if enabled). You don't normally need to change this line. See the man page for lpd for details of the flags. Page 13 Starting the spooler Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my attention. Page 231 ________ Replace the first line of the example with: 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 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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: # 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 15 Starting the spooler 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. 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: Page 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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 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 17 Starting the spooler Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 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: Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition o Line 1 shows an ARP request: system presto is looking for the Ethernet address of wait. It would appear that wait is currently not responding, since there is no reply. o Line 2 is not an IP message at all. tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and the beginning of the packet. We don't consider this kind of request in this book. o Line 3 is a broadcast ntp message. We looked at ntp on page 160. o Line 4 is another attempt by presto to find the IP address of wait. o Line 5 is a broadcast message from bumble on the rwho port, giving information about its current load averages and how long it has been up. See the man page for rwho on page 1167 for more information. o Line 6 is from a TCP connection between port 6000 on freebie and port 1089 on presto. It is sending 384 bytes (with the sequence numbers 536925467 to 536925851; see page 305), and is acknowledging that the last byte it received from presto had the sequence number 325114346. The window size is 17280. o Line 7 is another ARP request. presto is looking for the Ethernet address of freebie. How can that happen? We've just seen that they have a TCP connection. In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes. It's quite possible that all connections between presto and freebie have been dormant for this period, so presto needs to find freebie's IP address again. o Line 8 is the ARP reply from freebie to presto giving its Ethernet address. o Line 9 shows a reply from presto on the connection to freebie that we saw on line 6. It acknowledges the data up to sequence number 536925851, but doesn't send any itself. o Line 10 shows another 448 bytes of data from freebie to presto, and acknowledging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6. Thanks to Sergei S. Laskavy for drawing this to my attention. Page 450: anonymous ftp _______________________ Replace the paragraph starting with Create a user ftp: Page 19 Starting the spooler 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. 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 20 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very important: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%. 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.

Running 2.2.2R. XF86config with Protocol "mouseman" works fine, but the middle button has never worked. I've used "emulate3buttons" with success, but I hate hitting the two outside buttons together. Now, I'd like to run moused(8) and use /dev/sysmouse. However, in contrast to the man page, moused rejects -i all, and -3. With -t mouseman, on syscons, the mouse tracks well, but pasting is impossible. The right mouse button doesn't extend the highlighted field, but rather pastes one or two characters from the selected field. Pressing both outside buttons causes unpredictable behavior, mostly resetting the selected area and simultaneously pasting odd bits. I can't get response from the middle button at all, except when I run the DOS install which has a mouse demo and shows all three (warning that Windows doesn't know about the middle). And, nothing works in XF86Config. Protocol sysmouse is unknown, and mousman causes the mouse pointer to dither in the upper left corner. At least, without moused, I can use Protocol mouseman + Emulate3Buttons. Is there any info on the Artec mouse? Or do I just pitch it and buy another?

Any suggestions on how to force fetch to do ftp in passive mode that I can get my stuff through the firewall? -- Dan Langille The FreeBSD Diary http://www.FreeBSDDiary.com/freebsd To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Jan 8 21:28:14 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id VAA14508 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 8 Jan 1999 21:28:14 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from java.dpcsys.com (java.dpcsys.com [206.16.184.7]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id VAA14501 for ; Fri, 8 Jan 1999 21:28:13 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dan@dpcsys.com) Received: from localhost (dan@localhost) by java.dpcsys.com (8.9.1a/8.9.1) with SMTP id VAA10926; Fri, 8 Jan 1999 21:28:04 -0800 (PST) Date: Fri, 8 Jan 1999 21:28:04 -0800 (PST) From: Dan Busarow To: Jerry Preeper cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: aliasing/forwarding loop broken NOT majordomo In-Reply-To: <3.0.5.32.19990108205744.008e4180@crash.cts.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Fri, 8 Jan 1999, Jerry Preeper wrote: > Here is an interesting mail problem that I can't seem to figure out.

My video card is made by Headland Technologies, and I've discovered, in a web search, that the company was bought out long ago and I could not find specs for this thing. As per the X86 faq, I set the video card to "unsupported vga," and that seemed to work, only the windows are now too large for the screen. In other words, the windows kind of run off the edge, so I can't see the edges of my desktop. My monitor settings are correct though. as i'm not in an economic position to get another video card at this time, I'll have to stick with the one I've got. please help! oh yah, am running freebsd 2.2.7 thanks, alissa To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Jan 9 00:36:13 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA28428 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 9 Jan 1999 00:36:13 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from hyperhost.net (ether.lightrealm.com [207.159.132.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id AAA28423 for ; Sat, 9 Jan 1999 00:36:12 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from patseal@hyperhost.net) Received: from port32.annex4.radix.net (port32.annex4.radix.net [209.48.225.160]) by hyperhost.net (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id DAA02456; Sat, 9 Jan 1999 03:35:32 -0500 (EST) Date: Sat, 9 Jan 1999 03:35:41 -0500 (EST) From: Patrick Seal To: jonathan michaels cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: find/search a string in Netscape In-Reply-To: <19990109174622.F5652@caamora.com.au> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I don't quite remember WHY but it didn't.

How about running it on FreeBSD as a Linux binary? i did think about that .. but, the root cause of my systems unreliability is running xfree itself, i get allsorts of core dumps from all sorts of programs, from ee upto teh big daddy netscape, thier is no rhyme or reason. it all started soon after v2.1.7 and i cannot pin it down. i was happily runing freebsd and xfree on a i486dx33 with 16 mb then i upgraded to v2.1.7 AND this problem started, a freind suggested it was time to update. i went to a p5-133 and 64 mb dram and pci buslogic 958, smc digital chip set nic, and a stb trio 64v+ graphcis card .. the same problem manifested, so i thought i'd give it one last try. another freind had some spare time and cash, and built me a supermicro p6sne with real intel p6-180 and smc 10-100 mb nic, 128 mb of ecc full parity dram a matrox millenium II with about 16 mb and a aha2940 uw scsi card .. i added a ibm 5400 rpm 4.3 gb hd .. generious arn't i .. grin. and still i have this probllem .. go back to freebsd v2.1.5 and no problems, everything works a treat .. x wise that is. freebsd works a treat on all this grunt hardware .. just i cannot get xfree to stabalise and i don't where to start. its bloody annoying. sorry peoples, i just see all the frustration and all teh people tellin me how to suck eggs on this one, and still no brass ring. > > > I took a brief look a building Amaya on NetBSD, then got > > > > how did it compare with arena, look and feel isues,tools availability ? > > Never got it working.

It works fine in a normal xterm with TERM set to xterm-color. It was suggested that I needed to add a termcap entry for aterm, so I've tried adding aterm to the entry in termcap for xterm and xterm-color with no luck, and even duplicated the entry for xterm and renamed it aterm. I also added the info from rxvt.termcap in the aterm doc directory. Oh, and before anyone asks, yes, I've run cap_mkdb afterwards, and yes, numlock is on =) Any ideas would be much appreciated. It's really nothing more than an annoyance, but I use the number pad quite a bit and would like to continue doing so. Btw, I have the same thing happen with rxvt as well.

Hi,

I cannot get my modem = card to=20 work....

I keep getting the following error=20 mesage:

"configured irq 5 not in bitmap of probed = irqs=20 0"
 
So far I have tried different irqs = but I keep=20 getting the same error. I have tried the card in both slot 0 and Slot=20 1.
 
My 3Com ethernet card works just fine.

I am enclosing copy of the = kernel,=20 pccard.conf, and /var/log/messages.

Any=20 ideas?

I suggested it because I gave a friend a set of the free 2.2.6 CD's and lent him my CFBSD. He wants to install FreeBSD after a 500MB Windows partition. He read in CFBSD (p35-36) that ``/'' must end before 1024 cyls. and the solution is to split the DOS partition, which he doesn't want to do. I was suggesting that this bit should make reference to LBA BIOSes. Although my FreeBSD partition starts at 256MB I have seen plenty of messages in the list that include things like "....I have a 2GB disk partitioned as 800MB DOS partition and a 1.2GB FreeBSD partiton...." so it is possible to install FreeBSD past the 1024 cyl limit with LBA. > Greg > -- > See complete headers for address, home page and phone numbers > finger grog@lemis.com for PGP public key -- Trust the computer industry to shorten Year 2000 to Y2K.

I've had 2, a Graphics Xpression and currently an Xpert@Work. The All-in-Wonder seems to be a very good card and IIRC you can make it's TV stuff work under FreeBSD :-).

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, all, I am a fresher. Yesterday, I try to install FreeBSD 3.0 in my machine. However, there is something wrong with my installation. Frist, I try to install it by FTP. My network card is AMD PC NET PCI Ethernet Adapter. It seems there is no driver software in FreeBSD. Second, I try to install it from DOS partition. I install Windows 98 in my Dos partition. I copy enough files in the directory of C:\FreeBSD. However, when I configure everything and the installing program starts to load the main syster of FreeBSD, there is mistakes. I am not sure whether it is because Win 98 file system is not compatible with the normal dos filesystem. Of course, I would very much like to install it by Network. So, I really hope you can give me some suggestion. Your assistance will be appreciated.

I will buy the CD soon, be assured, but for now, the only options I have are ethernet cards, and floppy drives... No CD's yet for these oldies. I could probably connect them to my PC. But could I do a fresh install, just with what's in my /usr/src and /usr/obj??? Or do I need the source code in the bin.?? and the like? Could I recreate a bin.aa, bin.ab, ..., bin.?? distribution from my current source tree? I know I can use NFS to make multiple upgrades after a make buildworld. Could this feature be exploited to do not only a upgrade, but a full install??? Thanks a lot.

Replying to my own mail... How ironic... I searched into the /usr/src/release/Makefile , but my knowledge of "makefiles magic" is just too poor! :) So I _guess_ I could use some targets in this file to make a "240K-files" dist, but which? Thanks again! BTW, I think there's an error in the FAQ 13.7: "How did you split the distribution into 240k files?"

And excuse me about my poor English. Description: I have DEC PCI Ethernet card installed in my computer. During system boot phase this card is deteced by de0 device driver. But after loggin' in I can't use PING, TRACEROUTE, e.t.c. TCPDUMP writes otuput only for PING 192.168.0.0 (my net is 192.168.0.0), for any other PING's, TCPDUMP is silent. I have noticed, that card act so badly, if it has OACTIVE flag set ([...] means 'skipped'): #ifconfig de0 flags=[...]<[...],OACTIVE,[...]> After booting Win95 on the same computer (it's dual boot system FreeBSD<->Win95) and rebooting it (soft reboot), the flag OACTIVE disappears and all PINGs etc work just fine! So, how can I initialize my network card in FreeBSD, or should I use Win95 as a big ugly "card reset program" for this purpose? Have a nice CONNECT! Dan.

There is probably a way to fix it so that it recognizes wdc1 by using #mount /cdrom, but the only way I can think of is by adding an alias. Oh, and don't worry about the unknown phase message. My CD-ROM reports that at boot-up as well, although I have no problems mounting it using #mount /cdrom. It's also an IDE drive, except mounted on the primary EIDE controller as a slave. -- Mark Kobussen IS - Honeywell, SGP Division mkobusse@sgp.honeywell.com skjellyfetti@iname.com ICQ#11860734 /* '94 Mitsubishi Eclipse NT 1.8L */ /* Fender Stratocaster: Tex-Mex, 3-Tone Sunburst */ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Jan 9 10:32:40 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA25182 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 9 Jan 1999 10:32:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from smtp01.wxs.nl (smtp01.wxs.nl [195.121.6.61]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA25174 for ; Sat, 9 Jan 1999 10:32:38 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from asmodai@wxs.nl) Received: from daemon.ninth-circle.org ([195.121.57.38]) by smtp01.wxs.nl (Netscape Messaging Server 3.6) with ESMTP id AAA1A60; Sat, 9 Jan 1999 19:32:06 +0100 Message-ID: X-Mailer: XFMail 1.3 [p0] on FreeBSD X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MIME-Version: 1.0 In-Reply-To: Date: Sat, 09 Jan 1999 19:39:35 +0100 (CET) Organization: Ninth Circle Enterprises From: Jeroen Ruigrok/Asmodai To: "Blevins, Mandy" Subject: Re: FreeBSD Installation How-to Question Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On 08-Jan-99 Blevins, Mandy wrote: > Unfortunately the computer that I am installing FreeBSD on > is not connected to the net at the moment...and it won't be > until FreeBSD is already on there.

Hmmm, if ye go to the FAQ on freebsd.org, check out section 2.5, that will explain which files to get to get a minimal installation running (which ye might burn on CD to do a first-time install). Then when ye have a minimal system simply ftp the rest whenever ye get yer net-access...

Current implementation for ATI adapters The driver currently supports the SuperVGA capabilities of all ATI adapters except some early Mach8 and Mach32 adapters that do not provide the required functionality. This support works for monochrome, 16-colour and 256-colour video modes, if one of the following ATI graphics controller chips is present: VGAWonder series: 18800, 18800-1, 28800-2, 28800-4, 28800-5, 28800-6 Mach32 series: 68800-3, 68800-6, 68800AX, 68800LX Mach64 series: 88800GX-C, 88800GX-D, 88800GX-E, 88800GX-F, 88800CX, 264CT, 264ET, 264VT, 264GT (3D Rage), 264VT-B, 264VT3, 264VT4, 264GT-B (3D Rage II), 264GTIIc (3D Rage IIc), 264GT3 (3D Rage Pro), 264LT (3D Rage LT), 264LTPro (3D Rage LT Pro) The driver also supports 32K, 64K and 16M-colour modes on the 264xT series of adapters using the accelerator CRTC (but not the VGA CRTC). This support is as yet unaccelerated. Best regards -- Larry S.

If you want to do this in an xterm then you'll need to take a look at VT100 escape sequences (or xterm control sequences).

Have you verified that the link is present on your system. (e.g: chdir /usr/X11R6/bin ln -s XF86_SVGA X (substituting the appropriate X server for XF86_SVGA, if you for instance have ATI card S3 card, W32 card, etc..) That's where I would start. Then, if that doesn't work, maybe do something like sh -x /usr/X11R6/bin/startx ,and figure out exactly where the script is failing. (startx is just a shell script).

Basically prompts revolve around PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4 which can be set with standard export commands.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG hello out there: i have just installed freebsd 3.0 on my machine, from the walnut creek cdrom. everything seems to work fine so far. now, i don't recall installing minicom when i installed freebsd, but there is a minicom directory, which looks like this: CVS Makefile README.html files patches pkg scripts does this mean that minicom is there? nothing happens when i type "minicom," and when i enter in the full pathname, i get "permission denied." (i assume because minicom is the name of a dir, not a file) now, a little background: i am new to this. i have never installed anything, port or otherwise on freebsd, or any other flavor of unix. i have never used minicom before, but today i was trying to set things up to use my modem. i went through the handbook (webpages) on setting up ppp, and am now to the point where i would run kermit or minicom and try to establish a connection. (i don't really know if i have set up ppp right, but this is how i plan to find out) incidently, is there anyway to check and see if the modem is recognized by freebsd? something like ping? (the modem is a us robotics 56k external (not a winmodem, or at least it better not be) at dev/cuaa0) any advice would be appreciated -aaron "Disgruntled? Hell, they're all disgruntled.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I am presently running FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE, which I recently upgraded to from FreeBSD 2.2.6-RELEASE. My kernel configuration file can be seen at http://www.dimensional.com/~rooth/kernel-config Audio IS working, and for the first time ever, the sbmidi0 driver is working. I have a SoundBlaster AWE 64 Gold in the machine. It worked fine in 2.2.6. Presently, it seems to work okay, but The problem is: Interrupting a playing audio file (*.au) results in a looping of the last block of audio that was in the buffer (which seems to be subject to a maximum of about 5 seconds). Example: % cat mansong.au > /dev/audio [play play play] ^C % [card continues to play the last 5 seconds or so over and over and over] This looping can be broken by playing another audio file (same or different) to the card, and letting it play to completion. Any ideas how to fix this?

Okay... so I'm trying to use the Linux RealPlayer 5.0, since they seem to have given up on development for the FreeBSD version at 3.0 (bah). My system is 3.0-CURRENT (elf). Now, granted, it works just fine. That is, it works great if I run rvplayer from within the directory containing all the RealPlayer *.so files (i.e., the install dir). if the *.so files are somewhere else, well... that's a different story. :) What I'd love to be able to do (for instance, for firing up the player out of Netscape) is to put the shared library files into /usr/local/lib (or a subdir), and have ldconfig add those so rvplayer can find them. Real's documentation suggests setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the RealPlayer install directory, but I don't wanna. :) I've tried putting the *.so files into /usr/local/lib, /usr/local/lib/rvplayer, and /usr/lib/compat, and then re-running the ldconfig loop from /etc/rc. However, this doesn't register any of the new *.so files. All it seems to find are the "authorized" *.so.* files, with all the symlinks and aliases and things. So my question is this... what do I need to do in order to make ldconfig see these new files? Do I need to have that wacky symlink structure of -lwhatever.# = libwhatever.so.# -> libwhatever.so and so on? The whole ld thing is just the teensiest bit esoteric to someone who doesn't stir them around on a daily basis... :) So what's the secret?

Forgive me, but it isn't obvious to me. That second doublequote is -inside- a $( ) pair, and so does -not- terminate the string if `sh' is doing the parsing.

Nothing! You just don't have syslogd configured to log DEBUG messages. Replace LOG_DEBUG in your program with LOG_WARN and it'll work.

Occasionally during boot up, or some other time? It should never happen at bootup, since sh is only doing it, as far as I know, and I'm not aware of any other programs which parse it at other times. > That second doublequote is -inside- a $( ) pair, and so does -not- > terminate the string if `sh' is doing the parsing. um. oops. I see what you mean, I was thinking the $() would get parsed later on, for some reason, and so wouldn't be noticed at this point. Even if it did, a line like variable="foo"bar"more foo" would be just as legal, so I've got no excuse for that slip :-( > I was wondering what -other- program it is that parses /etc/rc.conf, and if > there was some way I could write something that makes -both- sh, and that > other mystery program happy at the same time. I'm not aware of any other program which parses it. Perhaps if you put that awk one-liner into a separate file and make awk run that, the problem would be solved, since the quotes would go. That seems like overkill though. It can't hurt to try putting it in rc.conf.local, like you suggest. Also, have you tried putting the main closing quote before the $(, like ntpdate_flags="-bs "$(awk 'stuff') I tried that, and it works perfectly well in sh, you could see if this mystery other program is just as happy (I doubt it would, it would probably still terminate it on the first quote). -- 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 Sat Jan 9 20:51:15 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA28128 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 9 Jan 1999 20:51:15 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from dart.sr.se (dart.SR.SE [193.12.91.98]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA28122 for ; Sat, 9 Jan 1999 20:51:12 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gunnar@pluto.sr.se) Received: from honken.sr.se ([134.25.128.27]) by dart.sr.se (8.9.1/8.9.0) with ESMTP id FAA06835; Sun, 10 Jan 1999 05:50:38 +0100 (MET) Received: from pluto.sr.se (pluto.SR.SE [134.25.193.91]) by honken.sr.se (8.7.5/8.7.3) with ESMTP id FAA20414; Sun, 10 Jan 1999 05:50:38 +0100 (MET) Received: (from gunnar@localhost) by pluto.sr.se (8.8.8/8.8.8) id FAA29909; Sun, 10 Jan 1999 05:50:38 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from gunnar) Message-ID: <19990110055037.B29880@sr.se> Date: Sun, 10 Jan 1999 05:50:37 +0100 From: Gunnar Flygt To: Patrick Mackeown Cc: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: Mouse won't work Reply-To: flygt@sr.se References: <199901091720.RAA18624@test.ns.demon.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93.2i In-Reply-To: <199901091720.RAA18624@test.ns.demon.net>; from Patrick Mackeown on Sat, Jan 09, 1999 at 05:20:40PM +0000 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Do you see the psm0 device when booting?

I recently ordered and recevied the four CD copy of FreeBSD 2.2.8 from cdrom.com. The installation went smoothly except for one slight hitch: it absolutely refuses to see my ps/2 mouse port. During the boot process (from the CDROM and, later, from the generic kernel that was installed) I thought a saw it say: psm0 device not found at 0x60. I confirmed this in /var/log/messages. First thing after installing I recompiled the kernel, primarily so I could use sound and mount my linux partition, but I also checked to make sure that the necessary line for the psm0 device was listed. It was, but the same error still showed up when booting. Also, /dev/psm0 does exist, however I did eventually run MAKEDEV to see if that would fix the problem. Nope. I know that my ps/2 port works fine since I can use the mouse under Linux and Windows (both of which I have installed on the same machine as the fbsd). Any help would be appreciated. BTW, the computer in question is a Compaq Presario 2200. Thanks.

Arun" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I have FreeBSD 2.2.8 installed on 4 Gb. Seagate IDE disk, which is jumpered as the secondary master on my P166-MMX system. The installation is only a few days old. I recompiled the kernel yesterday, and ever since 'shutdown' does not work properly. The disks refuse to sync. I get a series of '7's and '4's and 'giving up'. This implies that a filesystem check is performed every time I reboot, rather painful, given that I have a 3966 Mb. /usr partition. What could be the problem ? If this is an FAQ, I'm sorry, but I haven't found mention of anything like this happening anywhere. Please Cc: replies to me, since I'm not on this mailing list. Thanks. - K.

Depends on the ethernet card. If you're lucky, it came with a (DOS, probably) tool to adjust it. But changing it to not conflict means the generic kernels won't find it. I don't know if you can install from CD-ROM under those conditions; you may have to change the ethernet config first in that case. To install over the network, I pulled the cable on the CD-ROM, installed FreeBSD, built a kernel with a new IRQ, changed the card from DOS, put the CD-ROM back, and rebooted on the new kernel.

First, tell "Internet Mail Service" (whatever THAT is) to STOP sending HTML. Send ASCII text instead. It will be much more readable by people on the FreeBSD mailing lists. You will also want to keep your mail messages within 80 columns, for those who are using text- based mailers. Second, you'll get your questions answered quickly and efficiently on freebsd-questions. The freebsd-net list is generally used to discuss development of the networking support in FreeBSD. I don't know that you're likely to get questions about a Windows- based proxy server answered anywhere here; you'll probably need to talk to the vendor of the proxy server. We just don't do Windows here (much). It can't hurt to ask over on -questions, though. My suggestion would be to plug the cable modem into the FreeBSD box, put a second network card in the FreeBSD box for the Windows PCs, and use the advanced networking features of the FreeBSD box to make your network work. I've forwarded a copy of this reply to the -questions list, and directed replies to you and to the -questions lists. Good luck. -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"
