Sure, but you may not like them. First, nobody has to use Microsoft OSes. I choose not to use them, so I have no suggestions that would accommodate the idea of running three OSes on one machine. One of the many reasons that I don't use MS OSes is because that company wants to control how I do things and I prefer to manage that for myself -- easy with Unix. However, if there was some reason for me to have a box with W95 and/or NT4 on it, I would also have at least one FreeBSD box, since an old 486-33 with 8 MB of RAM and 130 MB of disk will do that just fine and those things are being thrown away by people who need supercomputers to run the latest rubbish from Redmond. I would use the 486 as my Internet gateway/firewall/etc and I'd hook it up to my home LAN, to which all my other actual working machines would be connected. All of a sudden, it's trivial to use Unix for everything that it should be used for ... The rest of this solution is self-evident, so I won't bore everybody with it here. -- 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 Feb 7 00:52:32 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id AAA25472 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 7 Feb 1999 00:52:32 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ccsales.com (ccsales.com [216.0.22.30]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id AAA25465 for ; Sun, 7 Feb 1999 00:52:31 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from randyk@ccsales.com) Received: (from randyk@localhost) by ccsales.com (8.9.1/8.9.0) id AAA00933; Sun, 7 Feb 1999 00:51:46 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <19990207005146.62065@ccsales.com> Date: Sun, 7 Feb 1999 00:51:46 -0800 From: randyk To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Compiling Apache 1.3 SSL from Ports on 3.0 Reply-To: randyk@ccsales.com Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.89i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE, compiling apache13-ssl from ports gives: /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "librsaref.so.2" not found and stops the make... ???

The only thing that got it working for us was to do a clean installation with -current. After that Staroffice 5.0 worked but there's still some problem with java when we were trying to register the program via Staroffice itself. Otherwise, it seems ok. BTW I tried to upgrade my laptop from 2.2.7 to current, just to get Staroffice running, and that didn't work. I suspect there is some problems with the upgrade from a.out to elf. I saw a mail from Jordan and he recomended not upgrading before mid februari. -- /Bengan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Feb 7 01:36:50 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id BAA00220 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 7 Feb 1999 01:36:50 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from smtp03.wxs.nl (smtp03.wxs.nl [195.121.6.37]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id BAA00215 for ; Sun, 7 Feb 1999 01:36:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from asmodai@wxs.nl) Received: from daemon.ninth-circle.org ([195.121.56.120]) by smtp03.wxs.nl (Netscape Messaging Server 3.61) with ESMTP id AAA810; Sun, 7 Feb 1999 10:36:47 +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: <36BCFB91.A337A483@uk.radan.com> Date: Sun, 07 Feb 1999 10:45:47 +0100 (CET) Organization: Ninth Circle Enterprises From: Jeroen Ruigrok/Asmodai To: Mark Ovens Subject: Re: Help with sending a PR Cc: freebsd-questions Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On 07-Feb-99 Mark Ovens wrote: > Jeroen Ruigrok/Asmodai wrote: >> On 06-Feb-99 Mark Ovens wrote: >> >> > I've made a small enhancement to csh(1) and want to submit it.

Excuse me about my poor English. I have a question about ppp & ipfw. I connect to my ISP with user ppp. The -alias option is turned on bescause my internal network have an address 192.168.1.x, and ISP assigns a dynamic IPaddr to me. The gateway computer, which also used as dialout server, have address 192.168.1.1 I need to disable any connections to Telnet and port 3000 of gateway from Internet (but enable to connect to these ports from internal network). Also I need to allow/disallow computers of my internal network to connect to Internet via gate. How can I achieve all this? P.S. I have read man 8 ppp and change ppp.conf file. Below I provide a cut from this file. It seems to work. Do I go a right way? ---8<--- #I want to disallow comp 192.168.1.2 to use Internet connection set filter in 0 deny 0/0 192.168.1.2/32 set filter out 0 deny 192.168.1.2/32 0/0 set filter in 1 deny tcp src eq telnet estab set filter out 1 permit tcp dst eq telnet set filter in 2 deny tcp dst eq 3000 set filter in 3 permit tcp src eq 21 estab set filter out 3 permit tcp dst eq 21 set filter in 4 permit tcp src eq 20 dst gt 1023 set filter out 4 permit tcp dst eq 20 set filter in 5 permit tcp src eq 80 estab set filter out 5 permit tcp dst eq 80 set filter in 6 permit udp src eq 53 set filter out 6 permit udp dst eq 53 set filter in 7 permit icmp set filter out 7 permit icmp set filter in 8 permit udp dst gt 33433 set filter out 8 permit udp dst gt 33433 set server +3000 internet --->8--- When the rules calculated, if packet is come from outside (Internet): before IP packet de-aliasing is performed, or after the packet appears in internal network? And what about packet going from inside to outside? Maybe the point is to use ppp packet filtering for external network and ipfw - for internal? Or maybe I can use ipfw for both networks. In this case, how can I specify dynamic IPaddr in ipfw rules. P.P.S. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE Reply to my e-mail also - I do not subscribed on this mailing lists.

The ppp prompt will not allow one to execute programs. Simply use ALT+Fn to switch to another console, and use lynx from a normal shell prompt there.

Make world and cvsup commonly mean one is also subscribing to the mailinglist of the target platform (e.g. CURRENT of STABLE most of the time) since these errors could be involved in the current development process. Since you are upgrading to CURRENT, please subscribe to the current list and ask on that list and provide a paste of the error involved if a new cvsup doesn't fix the problem (it's common to get caught between source commits, so best advice is to cvsup, make clean && make world, see if errors occur, no? be happy, yes? cvsup again, make world again and when it fails again, start asking on the appropriate list). --- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven join #FreeBSD on Undernet asmodai(at)wxs.nl Time is merely a residue of Reality...

If a ppp connection is established (i.e. the ``PPP'' in the ppp prompt is _all_ upper case) then all you need to do is enter a URL. If that doesn't work, check that all the peripheral config files for ppp are setup, /etc/host.conf, /etc/resolv.conf, and /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup. The last one might not be necessary depending on the ppp source code version you used. If you're running the ppp that came on the CD then you will need it. > Is there a log that would > help me correlate my keyboard input with activity over the communication > line?

Maybe someone will give a more technical asnswer to this, but the association is through TCP/IP, the info in the files mentioned above define the address of the DNS nameserver(s) and setup the route to them. That's the beauty of Unix, TCP and stuff is such a fundamental part of the OS that these things work automagically :-) HTH. > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message -- Q.

Also, the kernel doesn't seem to detect more than 64 MB ram even though I specified 128 MB but that's a minor concern for now.

Yeah, You run "who" using the wtmp file instead of utmp, and you'll get a long list of all the folks who have been on, including your X sessions (I think), but who won't read an X session entry out of the utmp file (which is what it normally does). > >Anyway, I think that with the correct sessreg config like it says in >http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=137567+139561+/usr/local/www/db/ >text/1997/freebsd-questions/19970608.freebsd-questions >you get stuff showing up in the last log.

But the only device for which 'EthernetExpress' popped up in the LINT kernel. Just making sure the original poster had the right bus. And a note for Paul, ex0 is part of the GENERIC kernel.

Now, I received FreeBSD 2.2.8 cdrom from Walnut Creek and I tried to upgrade using sysinstall. First, I just upgrade the bin and man distributions as advised and before writing back the etc files, sysinstall crashed (core dumped, I can upload somewhere the sysinstall.core file if useful). I reboot, booted using kernel.prev (because it cannot boot the new kernel) and perform a new upgrade of bin and man and it worked fine till the end. Now, the next step for me is to update XFree but it complains about my etc files not being accessible!! It would be great if someone could tell me how to upgrade XFree using sysinstall and CDRom 2.2.8. I can provide more details on request. Maybe it would be best if sysinstall would be upgraded because I am still using 2.2.7 version!! Thanks! Phil.

Don't actually touch the partition info (should already be valid) and then install booteasy when given the option. best I can do for you off the cuff.

The same and eternal questions about 'How to allow users to mount cdrom?'. I have seen a lot of times this question in the archive of this mailing list with no real answer. Okay, I can use 'sudo' or such things. I have even try to use amd with no success. Before coming to FreeBSD, I used Debian Linux where it was possible with an option in the /etc/fstab to allow users to be able to mount the cdrom. Why it is not possible under FreeBSD? I do not know if it is possible or not in the others BSD... Okay, there are no real need for a server, but I use FreeBSD for both! Thanks to fulfill my curiosity. Anyone can write an FAQ about this point? I would if only I had the answer ;-) Phil.

Have you looked at the suck port in /usr/ports/news/suck ? As for the news server you'd use, I don't know, doesn't your Internet provider have one?

"There is no security without physical security." See 'man 5 ttys' and 'more /etc/ttys' (if you still have the comments from the installed version) on how to prevent people from going into single-user mode without root's password. Even if you stop them from going into single-user mode from the HD disk boot, what stops them from slipping a floppy in the drive and booting off of that? You need to prevent access to the reset button, power supply, and bootable floppy drive. If that is not possible and you are concerned, do not put bootstrap code on the machine. Boot from floppy and then control physical access to the floppy only. Better than nothing I guess. That's MHO, anyway. Any discussion more in-depth than this should probably move to freebsd-security. -- Crist J.

I've had enough "get yourself a _proper_ mailer" advice. I've done it. I've installed mutt _and_ I've got it to d/l my mail from our mail server at work (which is where all my e-mail comes through). It was even easier than The Book said, I didn't need popclient as I just needed to setup some POP stuff in ~/.muttrc then type ``G''. :-) Now all I've got to do is figure out how to make sendmail send my mail (you'll notice from the header that I sent this message with Netscape). I've looked at the manpage, the handbook, FAQ, and The Book but they haven't really helped, they seem more to do with receiving mail. Is there a good guide to setting up sendmail to _send_ mail using a dial-up connection? Something like the mutt manual (/usr/local/share/doc/mutt/manual.html)? One last thing. I still haven't learned all the keystrokes in mutt yet and sometimes use the wrong one, e.g. ``f'' to move to the next page (as in vi). However as this means ``forward'' I get a ``To: '' prompt. How do I cancel it? ESC and Ctrl-D don't work, Ctrl-C does but asks ``Exit mutt?'' with ``y'' as the default answer. What is the correct key to cancel a command?

Assuming sendmail is installed (make world will do this unless you disable it in /etc/make.conf), just hit "send" and sendmail does the rest. You might want to create a /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup which looks like this: MYADDR: add! default HISADDR bg sendmail -q (you probably already have the 'add! default HISADDR' there) This will force sendmail to process the mail queue when you connect to your ISP (so you can compose mail offline, then the next time you connect all the mail you've queued up will be sent) You might also want to run sendmail in the background (rc.network starts it unless you've disabled it in rc.conf) so that it regularly tries to send mail that it wasn't able to deliver on the first attempt. > One last thing.

It'll take care of the sending by itself. Unless you've disabled it, it starts on bootup from /etc/rc.conf. Look for this part.. sendmail_enable="YES" # Run the sendmail daemon (or NO). sendmail_flags="-bd -q15m" # -bd is pretty mandatory. If it's as above, sendmail should already be running. There's an article in this month's FreeBSD 'zine issue about using email with a dial-up account. Might be a good idea to take a look at that. The article can be found at http://www.freebsdzine.org/features/mail.shtml There's also an article in the archives about sendmail, although it's mostly about the anti-spam features. > One last thing.

Whatever command I use to read the tape returns with an I/O error and never reads anything. Shutdown-powerdown-reboot doesn't fix the problem. Reverting to an older kernel without these features, the tape becomes useable again. It's the 2.2.6-RELEASE kernel, and an Exabyte 8200 on an Adaptec 2940.

This seems a little too vague to report as a bug. Or should I just send this sort of thing in as a bug in GNATS or send-pr? Has anyone else reported this? Should I go about tracking down exactly which kernel option is causing the problem? It's enough nuisance work, kernel rebuilds and reboots, that I'd just as soon avoid it if someone else is on it already. I looked through the GNATS database and couldn't find anything, but that doesn't say that it isn't already reported. Thanks for listening! J.

Ya, That's aa coooool thing to learn, I have seen what perl scripts can do. But I think its very extensible language, I mean I'll be 65 years before I reach the bottom of it, is that so, I'm ready to learn new things, and always wish to learn the devls such as perl, tcl, tk, but I'm kinda afraid that they'd be difficult for me to learn.

In the end, I think the consensus was that this problem was not being caused by running out of swap, though running out of swap helped it. It's also supposed to be gone now.

In this example, you have three processes involved: 1. Your shell, which spawns the first incidence of sample and waits for it to finish. 2. The first incidence of sample, which prints ``I am father!'' and finishes. 3. The second incidence of sample, which prints ``I am son!'' and finishes. Note that the parent process (2) doesn't wait for the child process to finish, so it's possible to have the child process still running when the shell starts its prompt. This is what you're seeing here, and, to use your terminology, ``That's UNIX'' :-) The example in the book is flawed, and it's a coincidence whether the prompt comes before the child output or not, If you want to fix it, make the parent wait for the child: main() { int pid = fork (); if(pid == 0) printf("I am son!\n"); else { printf("I am father!\n"); wait (pid); } } For the pedantic: pid is of type pid_t, which may or may not be the same as int. You need to include sys/types.h for the definition of pid_t, which is rather beyond the scope of this example. > (2)On second output,why % mark appears first,and why not returns to normal > prompt. I'm not sure what you mean by this. It appears that your prompt is %, and that's what you get in either case. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

That is, to enter single user mode required the root password (which sorta defeats the purpose of the original question.) But - barring some mechanism like that; there's no way.

Chip is a Startech ST16C554CJ. This is how I have mine configured: device sio2 at isa? port 0x1a8 tty flags 0x205 irq 10 vector siointr device sio3 at isa? port 0x1e8 tty flags 0x205 device sio4 at isa? port 0x2a8 tty flags 0x205 device sio5 at isa? port 0x3e8 tty flags 0x205 The above skips the traditional "COM3" I/O address as my Mach32 (since retired) was using that address for something. The jumpers are quite a nightmare as there are 5 big blocks of jumpers. Once Upon A Time this stuff was online at http://www.stb.com/ but I couldn't find it. Uh, stupid question, anybody have NT 4.0 drivers? :-) I have two of these cards. Starting at the bottom jumpers J33 thru J40, each has 3 pins. This row is used to select the "IRQ Block" used per port. J33 and J34 for port A, etc, thru J40. Rather than go into great details leave all the jumpers on the bottom pairs of pins to select "IRQ Block A" which is controlled by J25 thru J28. The right most 4 jumpers (3 pins per jumper) of the remaining 4 jumper banks are IRQ Blocks. The leftmost set of 4 define I/O addresses. Use only one jumper per block for IRQ, only one jumper per block for I/O. You use J33 thru J40 to point a port toward what jumper block it is to use. To share an IRQ you point the ports to the same IRQ block, you don't set multiple IRQ blocks to the same IRQ. Lets see if I can do ASCII art: 3f8 2f8 1f8 2a8 12 10 4 2 o o o o o X o o o o o X o X o o o o o X o o o o 3e8 2e8 1e8 1a8 15 11 5 3 The above is supposed to be an IRQ jumper block with IRQ 10 selected. IRQ Block A isJ25-J28, B is J17-J20, C is J9-12, D is J1-J4. Also shown above is a port selected for I/O address 0x1a8. Jumpers J29-J32 select port 1 I/O, J21-J24 for port 2, J13-J16 for port 3, and J5-J8 for port 4. Output jack for port 1 is closest to the ISA connector. Port 4 is furthest. Summary: I think this is how mine is jumpered: o o o o o o o o J8 X o o o o o o o J1 X o o o o o o o o o o X o o o o J16 o o o X o o o o J8 o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o J24 o o X o o o o o J17 o o X o o o o o o o o o o X o o J32 o o o X o X o o J25 o o o X o o o o o o o o o o o o J40 X X X X X X X X J33 X X X X X X X X -- 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.

Being so frustrated and having been searched all possible literatures, I have to turn to this list at my last try. I have two network interfaces fxp0 and de0 on my machine. I used to use 2.2.6. Both cards worked fine. I cvsuped RELENG_3 and complied it sucessfully. However, after I configured rc.conf, compiled the kernel, reboot the machine, it died at the point: Doing networking initial work:hostname. After it happend several times, I commented out the ifconfig command in rc.network. The machine could boot then. I even had X-windows running. I tried to manually configure my network cards by typing: ifconfig lo0 inet * ifconfig de0 inet * netmask * ifconfig fxp0 inet * netmask * However, "ifconfig fxp0" killed the machine. I lost keyboard. I tried to uncomment the lines in rc.network and left only network_interfaces="lo0". Still , rebooting died at the ifconfig point. I donot know what caused the problem. I used /usr/obj/elf/usr/src/usr.sbin/config/config configured the kernel. Does it matter? I am will very grateful if somebody could give me a hint. --Xiaowei To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Feb 7 20:19:52 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA08428 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sun, 7 Feb 1999 20:19:52 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from gw.caamora.com.au (jonath5.lnk.telstra.net [139.130.41.237]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA08423 for ; Sun, 7 Feb 1999 20:19:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jon@gw.caamora.com.au) Received: (from jon@localhost) by gw.caamora.com.au (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA28570; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 15:25:42 +1100 (EST) (envelope-from jon) Message-ID: <19990208152541.C28384@caamora.com.au> Date: Mon, 8 Feb 1999 15:25:41 +1100 From: jonathan michaels To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Fw: HELP!!!!

Why'd ya thump me on the head? :-) Of course. I used to do this for every new patch from Alfredo I have *always* used a locally modified port to start from. This port has been very well maintained for some time, although it has suffered a bit in the commit queue. The ports committers are very busy people you know... It's pretty bad form, IMHO, to install a lot of unported software on a FreeBSD system. It's really not that difficult to implement a new port and it helps you be able to rapidly reconstruct your system if necessary. I'd even go so far as to recommend using the ports facility for locally written (and private) applications. > i am trying to buil it, but without success !!!! > when i configure (./configure) my windowmaker it returns me that i don't > have libPropList installed (that's not true, i just installed it)! > How to get it running ? I'd be very surprised if our ever diligent WindowMaker port maintainer, Brian Handy, didn't already have this worked out too. I see Steve's suggestion seems to have been effective for someone else. I'll wait for the port though. It won't be long.

The situation was 1 a server was moved from one location to another and the static route to that server updated in the networks default router (a Cisco with no known vices in this regard) 2 the relocated server was, after some 30 minutes in the new location, restored to its former connection because the the move revealed that futher work was necessary to relocate it 3 Thereafter, vital boxes such as the DNS (FreeBSD-2.2.8-STABLE) could not contact the moved server. Ping from these boxes reported "sendto: no route to host". There were . about 3 hosts - all of which are usually in constant communication with the relocated server - that could no longer contact the server. The OS range from FreeBSD 2.2.2-STABLE to 2.2.8-STABLE. . no obvious problems revealed by netstat -rn. This display showed - the same default gateway as before the move, with the G, U, S and no M flags - no host routes to the server I expected that after the relocation the default router would redirect the hosts to use a new router to access the server. The problem was finally worked around by rebooting the three servers. Perhaps I should have tried netstat -flush from the console ?

I was able to successfully download the sources through cvsup and install using make aout-to-elf (build and install). However after rebooting in 'single-user' mode, using 'boot -s' at the boot prompt, I get the following errors after I attempt to log in: /usr/libexec/ld.so: warning: /usr/lib/libc.so.3: minor version -1 older then expected, using it anyway ld.so failed: bad magic number in "/usr/lib/libc.so.3" Then it just brings me back to the login prompt. I was able to boot up by choosing my old 2.2.6 kernel at the boot prompt, but then I was unable to get to my /usr partition. I tried the following commands to no avail: fsck -p mount -u / mount -a -t ufs Is there any way to recover my /usr partition or am I just screwed? I can get the 3.0-release on cd, so reinstalling the OS wouldn't be a big deal. However, I'd like to figure out what went wrong so I can prevent this from happening in the future. I'd appreciate any advice you can give me.

That would depend what format the file was. At the simplest level, with two files called "current_i" and "current_j", containing the numbers alone, you can read that like so: i=$(cat current_i) j=$(cat current_j) and then proceed as normal.

Ok - this i already know - this is just standard x stuff where you see the visual component of an application running elsewhere - what i want is something a little different - from my X Window Manager I want to launch a "window" that contains the entire window manager on another X enabled host. For example i have 2 FBSD boxes, bith running X. On box 1 I start X then I start another application / process that gives me my X display under box 2 - not just an application - the whole thing... kinda like a vistual telnet... snip... > Is winX an X server for windows?

Take this example from the handbook: :: ::To apply the deltas, simply say: :: :: cd /where/ever/you/want/the/stuff :: ctm -v -v /where/you/store/your/deltas/src-xxx.* :: :: ::What on earth is "/where/ever/you/want/the/stuff"? The ::"/where/you/store/your/deltas/" is obvious, but there's no explanation at ::all for the first directory. :: ::I think this is the only problem I have, because if when I run ctm it says ::that everything checks out okay, but I don't think it's in the right ::directory (i.e. I ran ctm in /usr/CTM, where I have the gzipped deltas, and ::the result sure doesn't look right). I think I just need a little more ::hand-holding than the documentation provides... Thanks, You have to create your own "/where/ever/you/want/the/stuff" directory and apply yor deltas. For example, # mkdir /usr/src/3.0-STABLE # cd /usr/src/3.0-STABLE # ctm -v /where/you/store/your/deltas/src-3.* or # mkdir /usr/src/3.0-STABLE # cd /where/you/store/your/deltas # ctm -v -b /usr/src/3.0-STABLE src-3.* If your are starting off from some where in a huge tree, you could use the "src-*00xEmpty.gz" file. For example, # mkdir /usr/src/what-ever # cd /where/you/store/your/deltas Now, get src-*.??00xEmpty.gz and following src-*.????.gz files. Then, # ctm -v -b /usr/src/what-ever src-*.??00xEmpty.gz # ctm -v -b /usr/src/what-ever src-*.????.gz Hope this helps.

All you'll need to do is add 192.168.1.1 as the gateway under 95, possible setup a DNS server on #1 (other wise 95 will force the PPP link to dial.) and slap the Win95's name into the hosts file. The first box should take care of all that. I'm running the same setup with the addition of another FreeBSD box, and a Linux machine all setup this way.

But.... I am having a devil of a time getting my FreeBSD to connect to my current (private) ISP, and their tech support has tried to help, but after several months of no success, I need to try some different ISP's who may be more accustomed to working with non-Microsoft users. Can anyone suggest an ISP serving the 703 area code, who is not 'chilled to the bone' and the thought of helping someone who is not a Microsoft devote to access the Internet? I'm looking for a ppp connection that, using FreeBSD 2.2.8, (and or sometimes R.H. Linux, depending on my mood) and I want to be able to WWW, FTP, and Telnet. Have several e-mail accounts now, so that is not an priority. Please respond to me here, or at the cc'd address above if you do not wish to respond to the 'list'. BTW, I am a member of the ISP/C, but am not offering commercial services, nor do I plan to soon. I just want to support the ISP/C's ability to speak for the interests of small business men who need to be heard as this new industry evolves and develops. Thanks in advance for anyone's recommendation and or suggestions. dg ------_=_NextPart_000_01BE537A.4BE969BA Content-Type: application/ms-tnef Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 eJ8+Ig8PAQaQCAAEAAAAAAABAAEAAQeQBgAIAAAA5AQAAAAAAADoAAEIgAcAGAAAAElQTS5NaWNy b3NvZnQgTWFpbC5Ob3RlADEIAQWAAwAOAAAAzwcCAAgACgAuAC4AAQBHAQEggAMADgAAAM8HAgAI AAoALwANAAEAJwEBCYABACEAAABDOEJBRUI1MjVEQkZEMjExQjJCQTAwMDYyQjAwMUZGMABDBwEE gAEAEwAAAEJTRCBmcmllbmRseSBJU1BzPwAUBgENgAQAAgAAAAIAAgABA5AGAHQJAAAtAAAAAwBb gAggBgAAAAAAwAAAAAAAAEYAAAAAUoUAAPMVAAAeAFyACCAGAAAAAADAAAAAAAAARgAAAABUhQAA AQAAAAUAAAA4LjA0AAAAAAMADoAIIAYAAAAAAMAAAAAAAABGAAAAAAGFAAAAAAAACwAQgAggBgAA AAAAwAAAAAAAAEYAAAAAA4UAAAAAAAALABGACCAGAAAAAADAAAAAAAAARgAAAAAOhQAAAAAAAAMA N4AIIAYAAAAAAMAAAAAAAABGAAAAABCFAAAAAAAAAwA4gAggBgAAAAAAwAAAAAAAAEYAAAAAEYUA AAAAAAADAD6ACCAGAAAAAADAAAAAAAAARgAAAAAYhQAAAAAAAB4AS4AIIAYAAAAAAMAAAAAAAABG AAAAADaFAAABAAAAAQAAAAAAAAAeAEyACCAGAAAAAADAAAAAAAAARgAAAAA3hQAAAQAAAAEAAAAA AAAAHgBNgAggBgAAAAAAwAAAAAAAAEYAAAAAOIUAAAEAAAABAAAAAAAAAAIBCRABAAAAEwQAAA8E AACZBQAATFpGdVfJGzgDAAoAcmNwZzEyNXYyAPQB9yACpAPjAgBjgmgKwHNldDAgBxPlAoB9CoF1 YwBQCwMLYCJuDhAwMzMMYGxuHQIgZQunCrEKgE9LIOECEGxrcywT8QXACXDsYXMCIAQgdBBABUAK wHhlIHAEkBThB0AUUEmsJ3YVoAWBaQEAZBUkERZgbSBfErB0XyAUZ28LgGcVIG8gdc8QcAXQDeAD YFNvAYAYcl0A0GMHkBUSFaBXGnAgewWxGjJJAjAEkRCAFXBuMwbABbBlLhN0E3RCdXx0Lh0hFlAV cBegEEB2fRhCYRahHeADIBlQHiF0HwdxGBAQgB8AGFFteSBiRgnRQlNEGHIFoG7tEtBjGXMf0WMI cAlwAjAoIChwBRB2FVBlKTkWUFNQFFAAcBcSZWkDGsEFkGggc3VwcH8JER2xFREIgRcRGJAaQGz6 cBRQYh0AFXABgASQI+DfHmAEkAdAH8ACIWgEIB6x/xKwI+EZ0xZBJ1AJ4CTzJLDXH+AU4B8hZAaQ ZgSQIdKlIrEnBCB3aCFBYR/g/mIVoBviGbIYsBiAB4Ak83p3BbBrGEID8BUwJ1Fufi0Y8xTgGWEY sRBgHCtD7wORG7ESwSPhZx9QK5AbodsioiYxch3jGjI3ElAVcv8eMAWgAQAUUCpSBAAnUQVA9icQ MAMQbChlGkEG4BLQzici9hUhCGBnaAVAHrH/JUIYQikCL3IyWR4wLUgeUe8X4DTBGasbJj8cOheC CQBebyxjFHIeMCQQcCCmaT8CIBUjFFAYsBhCIAYyLvU98DgUUCgjAgWxKQIfAlEEIFIuSB1QTAuA df54FFABABXAIxAYQjyBH9HfBGAEcCKQIwIdcHcAcBlzPyrRAaAzUBhyGnEUUEZUnSLVVCVQG3Ed UCBIHdDzL5EmVWUtAMADERnBCGD7AjAyoncUUBTgFSQ21gOgtyIhBbAswHlEcRw6UDNQ9xTQFaAJ cHMkICMSIUEVoH8aQAlwFFA7chlxGkEZ0CdxFxBhZGRJwQQgAaBv6xaBBpAgL2B1FqAYkDLCnwPx I9AYgUnJGjInbAQA7HQnHVAcO1RDUR1zHjA/B4AG0CYRHrEa4yLAL0N/JYUXoDLCGVApgRhCBaBt /QeAchbQJpEwoxnhFFASsH8FwE1BHXALUTyRJ3E68G77RHEdcGorgUH3I/ZRxyohnwGgAxBIMVXT FcBhaxRj3xoyC4AbQS/xJxNzAMAzQP8lkT0hGfIHgAOgKlIoRirRfxpACxEVcBUSMpIH0QuAZPcr gSjROBFsFoBMUSMRHlGpJVBvcC4sVBBAbhQw91oxS+EiUG4Z4DtUL1MqIf8JcFOzIxAVUDxyPnYv xDxxWS4sZGcTdBExAGaAAAsAAgABAAAAHgBwAAEAAAATAAAAQlNEIGZyaWVuZGx5IElTUHM/AAAC AXEAAQAAABYAAAABvlN6J9IvpdwuvzAR0phVAMBPgDN7AABAADkAACqyO3pTvgEDAPE/CQQAAB4A MUABAAAAEQAAAENMQVJFTkNFIEdSSUZGSU4AAAAAAwAaQAAAAAAeADBAAQAAABEAAABDTEFSRU5D RSBHUklGRklOAAAAAAMAGUAAAAAAAwD9P+QEAAADACYAAAAAAAMANgAAAAAAAwCAEP////8CAUcA AQAAADQAAABjPVVTO2E9IDtwPVVTRE9FRDtsPVdEQ0ZCNkVYQzAxLTk5MDIwODE1NDY0NlotMjU4 MDgAAgH5PwEAAABSAAAAAAAAANynQMjAQhAatLkIACsv4YIBAAAAAAAAAC9PPVVTRE9FRC9PVT1V U0RPRUQvQ049UkVDSVBJRU5UUy9DTj1DTEFSRU5DRSBHUklGRklOAAAAHgD4PwEAAAASAAAAR3Jp ZmZpbiwgQ2xhcmVuY2UAAAAeADhAAQAAABEAAABDTEFSRU5DRSBHUklGRklOAAAAAAIB+z8BAAAA UgAAAAAAAADcp0DIwEIQGrS5CAArL+GCAQAAAAAAAAAvTz1VU0RPRUQvT1U9VVNET0VEL0NOPVJF Q0lQSUVOVFMvQ049Q0xBUkVOQ0UgR1JJRkZJTgAAAB4A+j8BAAAAEgAAAEdyaWZmaW4sIENsYXJl bmNlAAAAHgA5QAEAAAARAAAAQ0xBUkVOQ0UgR1JJRkZJTgAAAABAAAcw4L3Ya3hTvgFAAAgwumnp S3pTvgEeAD0AAQAAAAEAAAAAAAAAHgAdDgEAAAATAAAAQlNEIGZyaWVuZGx5IElTUHM/AAAeADUQ AQAAADwAAAA8NDE2QzM1MUM1NzlGRDIxMUIyQjIwMDA2MkIwMDFGRjAzQUY0MjJAd2RjZmI2ZXhj MDEuZWQuZ292PgALACkAAAAAAAsAIwAAAAAAAwAGEDojlAMDAAcQzgMAAAMAEBAAAAAAAwAREAAA AAAeAAgQAQAAAGUAAABPS0ZPTEtTLEZPUlJFQVNPTlNUSEFUQVJFUEVSU09OQUwsSVZFREVDSURF RFRIQVRJTU5PVEdPSU5HVE9VU0VNSUNST1NPRlRUT0FDQ0VTU1RIRVdXV09SVEhFSU5URVJORVRB AAAAAAIBfwABAAAAPAAAADw0MTZDMzUxQzU3OUZEMjExQjJCMjAwMDYyQjAwMUZGMDNBRjQyMkB3 ZGNmYjZleGMwMS5lZC5nb3Y+AJsu ------_=_NextPart_000_01BE537A.4BE969BA-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 8 07:48:54 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id HAA21829 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 07:48:54 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from polgas.ps.admu.edu.ph (polgas.ps.admu.edu.ph [165.220.5.12]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id HAA21819 for ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 07:48:42 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from vince@polgas.ps.admu.edu.ph) From: vince@polgas.ps.admu.edu.ph Received: from localhost (vince@localhost) by polgas.ps.admu.edu.ph (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id VAA03016 for ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 21:27:53 +0800 Date: Mon, 8 Feb 1999 21:27:51 +0800 (PHT) To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: multi-address nat.

Well, I'll add a few details and clarifications. Maybe someone is monitoring the list now who wasn't then. ;) I have a FreeBSD machine that is a NFS server for several IRIX and Linux boxes. I have recently upgraded from 2.2.7 to 3.0-RELEASE and applied patches to enable NFS locking. Since then, I keep seeing the following syslog message: mountd[111]: umountall request from from unprivileged port The IP is the IP of the local machine, the FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE NFS server. Any ideas what could be causing this and what I can do to fix it? Maybe the following details can help some, too. The IRIX boxes are running IRIX's automount. The Linux boxes are running am-utils-6.0b1. The message seems to appear when one of the IRIX clients reboots. I don't know if there are other circumstances that cause this message or not.

Well, I have a Hauppauge WinTV card, and it's not without it's problems. I'm running 2.2.7-Release and while the kernel finds the card just great, the TX app (FXTV) only seems to update the TV picture when some other graphics are overlapping it. For example, if I move the corner of another window (eg. an xterm) so that it overlaps a small part of the TV window, then it works fine. As soon as nothing overlaps the TV window, the TV picture freezes. It may be because I only have a crappy Stealth64. I remember the windows95 drivers reporting that this card only works in 'primary' mode, and not buffered mode, or something similar, so It may just be my card, and not entirely FXTV's fault.

I'm a BSDI shop, but a WAN card vendor has *strongly* suggested FreeBSD for my "Super Router" project, as I like to call it. It will be a rack-mounted PC with 12 PCI slots and will be set up something like this: NODE 1 -> WAN A (AT&T PTP T1 for bandwidth) NODE 2 -> WAN B (T1 to Bell South's FR cloud, used to sell above bandwidth to other FR customers) NODE 3 -> LAN A (my accesss servers) NODE 4 -> LAN B (my UNIX boxes) NODE 5 -> LAN C (hosted UNIX boxes) ... Since I've always used an El-Cheapo, works-out-of-the-box router, I have a *massive* amount of homework to do before I take this project on. I'll want this new router to perform a lot of advanced magic. Finally, my question: Where can I find some in-depth documentation on using FreeBSD for such a project (aside from `man gated'). Please make suggestions that can be found on the Web, as I'm not running FreeBSD yet. Thanks!

I gives me a message that the modem is busy or not connected correctly and to check my interrupts and try again. I have tried all the basic configurations for the Com ports as well as all available interrupts, and nothing works. There are some jumpers and a set of switches on the inside of the modem, is this where my problem lies?? I would really like to get this setup for him before his birthday, please help.

Too old. The bug is presumed to have been fixed in early January this year. BTW, what you're running is an old snapshot of the development branch of FreeBSD. This means, succintly: a) you're supposed to read the freebsd-current mailing list. b) if you run it on a production system, you're on your own. c) if you find a bug, check that it still occurs with the latest version of -CURRENT before reporting it.

When you do go online, use `sendmail -q'. I don't know how well that would work, since I use Exim, though in a couple of tests it seemed to work about right. I personally prefer Exim to sendmail, and you may find it worth a look (/usr/ports/mail/exim).

If you get a ``To:'' prompt like that, pressing return without entering anything will cancel it.

Yes, create /etc/rc.shutdown as a shell script for what you want the system to do at shutdown, which in your case is bring down squid gracefully. The system will wait for rc.shutdown to complete before forcibly killing things. Doug White On Fri, Feb 05, 1999 at 05:43:11AM +0000, Francis A.

No, ``eval $(cat name_of_the_file)''. First, the shell runs the command within $(), so you have ``eval i=5 j=18'', then the eval will set those variables for you. (The spacing of the file doesn't matter, since white space as normal is ignored by the shell, so you could put all the variables on one line.) > Ya, That's aa coooool thing to learn, I have seen what perl scripts > can do.

Well, maybe it will take a while to learn it all, but you should be able to learn the basics fairly quickly. As Patrick said, get a copy of the Camel from Amazon or your local book shop, Perl is a fairly easy language to learn. > I'm ready to learn new things, and always wish to learn the devls such > as perl, tcl, tk, but I'm kinda afraid that they'd be difficult for me > to learn.

Do you have an internal cable modem, an external modem connected via a NIC? If it is external, is it one-way (requires a phone line for the upstream) or is it a two-way connection? One-way connections usually have a static ip on an internal LAN IP address (i.e. 192.168.100.1 as the gateway to your internal LAN) and two-way modems usually use DHCP and you are directly assigned the IP address. I have no idea how the internal modems work, but I would guess that it would be roughly analogous.

I help support nova.org/fcac.org, a non-profit ISP in 703 (Merrifield). All the techs are unpaid volunteer Unix weenies so we can help with BSD dialin configs if you need. In fact, we prefer "your type" :-) Price is $10/month plus $15 coop membership or something, unmetered time. We can also do DNS if you've got a domain, and you get a shell on one of our Sun/FreeBSD/Linux boxes with 20M disk if you want. We also have a handful of dedicated 24x7 subnet users if that's of interest, but it of course costs more -- but not nearly so much as Erols :-) Because we're all volunteer-based, there isn't quite the professionalism that you might want to expect from a "real" ISP :-) There are ocassionally short outages when we have had to upgrade some piece of hardware cuz we're don't have a redundant HW architecture, but I find the small size makes things more responsive than with a larger ISP. I have been happy using (and supporting) them for the past two years. If you're a Unix geek and have any interest in providing your expertise to any ISP-like problems, I'm sure we could use you. > I'm looking for a ppp connection that, using FreeBSD 2.2.8, (and or > sometimes R.H.

Myself and at least one of the other Nova nerds are FreeBSD bigots so that's no problem. Nova does multiple email accounts per dialin account. If you want I can ship you the configs I've used for ppp, pppd, and mpd, under FreeBSD 2.2.7.

I've seen this on a Toshiba Equium 7000S, with onboard fxp0. The first DMA operation in the configuration of the chip never completes. I re- installed 2.2.7 on that machine, since I didn't have time to investigate then.

If you ask a FreeBSD user, they'll recommend FreeBSD; if you ask a Linux user, they'll go for Linux; same for NetBSD, OpenBSD, BSDI, Solaris, etc. Obviously, people here think that FreeBSD is best. The main reason for considering Linux is its large user base -- but that's an argument for Win95 or NT and so it doesn't have much force. The BSD systems have a much longer heritage than Linux and have been worked on by a large group of people who have a vast amount of collective experience, leading to a robust and well-tested platform. Linux is basically a (very well-done) student project that happened to take off because of political factors that have faded into insignificance in this fast-moving world. However, because it's all new and because much of it has been written by people without much real experience, it's technically inferior to any BSD system. (And lots of people will disagree with this claim.) > Also, any books and other docs > that might help me out? There's a huge amount of documentation that comes as part of FreeBSD (although you wouldn't believe it if you read some of the questions that people post here) and that's worth study (and it will take years to get your head around all of it). There's Greg Lehey's excellent book "The Complete FreeBSD" (which you can buy as part of a package including the CDROMs from Walnut Creek), which is a great starting place for both overall newbies and newbies to FreeBSD, and there are many books (of varying quality) in the bookshops. Without knowing more about your background, interests and skills, it's hard to say more. > I am going to get deep into programming. Which > computer language would you recommend me study? Depends on what you mean by "deep into programming". If you intend to make your living as a programmer, then you need to learn a few languages. If you have Unix (of any flavour) then you'll want to start with sh, awk and sed; then move on to Python and C. If you'll be doing much complex stuff, you'll eventually need to come to terms with lex and yacc. If you want to get the best out of the only real programmer's editor, you'll learn lisp (and you'll get used to other people who think it's not the best editor flaming you -- but you won't be bothered by that while you get ten times as much work done as they do) and you'll go on feeling happy about the amazing power of all the tools that just come with any Unix system (or which can be added to it for free). -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 8 12:25:34 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA25580 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 12:25:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id MAA25547 for ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 12:25:26 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 13190 invoked by uid 1001); 8 Feb 1999 18:03:30 -0000 Message-ID: <19990208180330.13189.qmail@alpha.comkey.com.au> X-Posted-By: GBA-Post 1.04 06-Feb-1999 X-PGP-Fingerprint: 5A91 6942 8CEA 9DAB B95B C249 1CE1 493B 2B5A CE30 Date: Tue, 09 Feb 1999 04:03:30 +1000 From: Greg Black To: Patrick Seal Cc: root@isis.dynip.com, ben@scientia.demon.co.uk, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Help About Shell Script References: In-reply-to: of Sun, 07 Feb 1999 20:28:58 EST Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > Don't worry about perl.

Perl is *really* easy to learn. And when you grow up, you'll realize that neither perl or C++ is worth learning.

The real answer is to use real languages with clean and elegant syntax and sufficient simplicity to be easy to read -- the write-only nature of both perl and C++ means that, even when people get something working, it's almost impossible for the author (let alone anybody else) to make changes later without breaking everything. The obvious examples of languages that are worth learning are C and Python (and probably lisp). -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 8 12:25:39 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA25629 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 12:25:39 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id MAA25550 for ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 12:25:28 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 13909 invoked by uid 1001); 8 Feb 1999 20:15:17 -0000 Message-ID: <19990208201517.13908.qmail@alpha.comkey.com.au> X-Posted-By: GBA-Post 1.04 06-Feb-1999 X-PGP-Fingerprint: 5A91 6942 8CEA 9DAB B95B C249 1CE1 493B 2B5A CE30 Date: Tue, 09 Feb 1999 06:15:16 +1000 From: Greg Black To: "Thomas T.

The evils of `.' in the PATH have been covered and we can overlook the lack of an important word in the paragraph above. There's another reason not to use `test' as a program name -- most decent shells (including many versions of /bin/sh) provide `test' as a builtin so, whether `.' is in your path or not, the shell's builtin `test' will be run rather than your test program unless you remember to call it as `./test'. That's yet another reason why old hands tend to use names like `foo' and `bar' for test programs, since these are not standard command names. -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 8 12:25:35 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA25586 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 12:25:35 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id MAA25546 for ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 12:25:26 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 13646 invoked by uid 1001); 8 Feb 1999 19:31:35 -0000 Message-ID: <19990208193135.13645.qmail@alpha.comkey.com.au> X-Posted-By: GBA-Post 1.04 06-Feb-1999 X-PGP-Fingerprint: 5A91 6942 8CEA 9DAB B95B C249 1CE1 493B 2B5A CE30 Date: Tue, 09 Feb 1999 05:31:34 +1000 From: Greg Black To: Andrew Lankford Cc: "John Barbee" , cjclark@home.com, "FreeBSD Questions" Subject: Re: Making my login class capabilities database work right on 2.2.5 References: In-reply-to: of Sun, 07 Feb 1999 07:44:21 EST Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > >Andrew, I have gotten my X logins to show up in some form.

As it comes out of the box (on 2.2.8 at least), a simple package install of sudo and a few seconds editing the /usr/local/etc/sudoers file with visudo will have everybody able to execute something like "mount /cdrom" and "umount /cdrom" and the problem is solved.

I really can't believe this. I have five computers under my desk right now and another three beside it. Each one takes up a space about 420x185mm (or 17x7in if you're in one of those primitive countries that uses inches) and they can easily be stacked two high (or three high with a bit of ingenuity). Since they're on a network, you don't need a screen for each one, although you'd probably use one screen for all your MS boxes and a second screen for all your BSD boxes. If you say you need NT for work, then you have your NT box. (Of course, if it was me, I'd get a real job :-) ). Your wife and kids don't *need* W95 (my wife and kids have always used Unix and managed fine), but they can still dual-boot it on the NT box. And you can use the second box for FreeBSD and keep it running all the time.

But you really can avoid the reboots if you just put one more little box on the floor. Just as a tickler, one benefit of running Unix at home years ago was that I could run RS-232 lines to the kids' bedrooms and my wife's study and install a VT220 terminal in each room so they could use the computer any time they wanted to. This is still what they do -- the kids use Emacs to write their school (now university) assignments and we print them on the LaserJet using TeX and everybody is happy. Same thing for my wife with her work -- she's fine with Emacs and my TeX macro package, and she uses some stuff I whipped up with Python and PostgreSQL for her database requirements and never even thinks about the fact that she's using Unix. And it doesn't matter how much the kids or my wife need/want to use the computer, it doesn't interfere with my use at all. These days, of course, there's this LAN under my desk and a whole bunch of quite powerful hardware connected to it, but the old 486-33 that I first ran BSDI's beta release on is still humming away and still does its job as my gateway to the world and provides the 10 serial lines for modems, terminals, UPS control and so on. I wouldn't be without my Unix systems :-) -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 8 12:25:45 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA25678 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 12:25:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id MAA25559 for ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 12:25:32 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 13723 invoked by uid 1001); 8 Feb 1999 19:44:05 -0000 Message-ID: <19990208194405.13722.qmail@alpha.comkey.com.au> X-Posted-By: GBA-Post 1.04 06-Feb-1999 X-PGP-Fingerprint: 5A91 6942 8CEA 9DAB B95B C249 1CE1 493B 2B5A CE30 Date: Tue, 09 Feb 1999 05:44:05 +1000 From: Greg Black To: Frank Warren Cc: MrChevy , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Which OS to install References: <36BD2080.59EB5013@lightspeed.net> <36BD2FE9.5CA22441@home.com> In-reply-to: <36BD2FE9.5CA22441@home.com> of Sat, 06 Feb 1999 22:17:13 PST Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I would personally never use Linux for certain technical reasons which are not at all relevant here, but this is an absurd claim: > BSD is morally superior to Linux on all counts.

This is sad. Perl is worth avoiding (for reasons that I'm happy to elaborate on, but won't do here). For complex multi-user GUI-based applications that need to be developed quickly, you can't go past a combination of Python for the scripting stuff, Tk for the GUI stuff (via Python's tkinter module) and (if it involves data) PostgreSQL for a database engine. But, to return to the question (which has got very muddy now), there's no reason at all to use anything more complex than a standard shell script for the kind of stuff that has been discussed in this thread. Here's an example -- it's a little bit contrived since it was whipped up for this illustration, but it's real enough to make some kind of sense. Say we have a data file with records stored one per line with names and addresses like this: ---------- Smith,James Alan Will,25 Wilson St,West Gosford,NSW,2456,02-9876-5432 Jones,Mary-Anne,23/567 Harrison Ave,Indooroopilly,Qld,4068,07-3456-7890 Anderson-Smythe,Jim,106 Veronica St,Camberwell,Vic,3126,03-9988-7766 ---------- Simple enough: 7 fields per record -- Surname, First Name(s), Street, Suburb, State, Postcode, Phone No -- each field separated by a comma and the records in any order. Now, say we want to print the data neatly formatted, sorted by surname, then we can use this trivial shell script: ---------- #!/bin/sh sort -t , addr.dat | ( IFS=", " while read surname firstname street suburb state pcode telno ; do printf "%8s: %s %s\n" Name $firstname $surname printf "%8s: %s\n" Address $street printf "%8s %s %s %s\n" "" $suburb $state $pcode printf "%8s: %s\n\n" Phone $telno done ) ---------- Save the data in a file called addr.dat and run the script and you'll get: Name: Jim Anderson-Smythe Address: 106 Veronica St Camberwell Vic 3126 Phone: 03-9988-7766 Name: Mary-Anne Jones Address: 23/567 Harrison Ave Indooroopilly Qld 4068 Phone: 07-3456-7890 Name: James Alan Will Smith Address: 25 Wilson St West Gosford NSW 2456 Phone: 02-9876-5432 If you wanted them sorted by postcode rather than surname, you would change the sort command to key on the 6th field like this: sort -t , -k 6 addr.dat None of this is rocket science and none of it needs anything more complex than the standard shell and standard unix commands that have been around for years. So go and play with this and see how it works, and empower yourself with the wonderful programming environment that you get for free in FreeBSD. -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 8 12:25:51 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA25708 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 12:25:51 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id MAA25631 for ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 12:25:39 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 13040 invoked by uid 1001); 8 Feb 1999 17:43:08 -0000 Message-ID: <19990208174308.13039.qmail@alpha.comkey.com.au> X-Posted-By: GBA-Post 1.04 06-Feb-1999 X-PGP-Fingerprint: 5A91 6942 8CEA 9DAB B95B C249 1CE1 493B 2B5A CE30 Date: Tue, 09 Feb 1999 03:43:08 +1000 From: Greg Black To: Brett Taylor Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: WindowMaker References: In-reply-to: of Mon, 08 Feb 1999 08:44:08 MST Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > The updated port for Window Maker has been submitted for more than a week > but no one has committed it - dig through GNATS to find it.

I've reinstalled exmh 2.0.2 and tcl and tk 8.0.4 since the upgrade, which I believe were the same versions running on the box before I upgraded. Before the upgrade, I noticed that wish8.0 processes seemed to grow slowly over time. This was an annoyance, but not really a problem. Now, however, I notice that occasionally the wish process suddenly starts taking a lot of CPU and memory. This means I can't comfortably leave exmh running overnight as I would like, so that exmh can have e-mail filed for the next morning. (Yes, I can do that with slocal, but exmh seems not to be able to track new messages as well.) Is this a known problem under Tcl/Tk 8.0.4? Would upgrading to 8.1.b1 fix it?

Your terminology is a bit fuzzy here, so it's difficult to know what you mean. If you want to have the xdm (or equivalent) on the other host run in a window on the first host, you can't do that. But why would you want it anyway? You can rlogin (or better slogin) to the other host from an xterm on the first host and run any applications you want.

While I think you're going a little far here, people did go to a lot of trouble to indicate that, despite the name, 3.0-RELEASE was expected to be a little flaky. In fact, it wasn't too bad, but it wasn't a good idea to run it on production systems. 3.1-RELEASE will be out in a week or two; you'd be well advised to move to that as soon as possible.

It currently doesn't work too well, and only seems to print some of the time. Mostly, when it finishes printing one job, the job never goes away, and the next job never starts. Either that, or it won't print, the little green light which makes me think it's getting data blinks for upwards of an hour, and the job always reports as active. I'm using the generic printcap entry, and mostly printing through Win98 boxes to Samba, which passes the job to lpd (this much I know works, as the job does show with lpq.) Is there some problem with having the output of Windows' printer driver for the Action Laser 1000 being given to lpd? Or do I need something more specific for my printcap? BTW, I know the printer works, since it will print just fine when hooked directly to a Windows box, but who wants to use one of them for a print server? :) -- Chip Marshall Exploration Physics International, Inc.

The machine has a Buslogic BT-958 (FW Rev. 5.07B) SCSI card with seagate disks, all new. I have been experiencing errors and sudden reboots every couple of days at around 2:00 a.m. when the daily scripts run. Interestingly enough though, I ran `make world' twice without any errors. In the past, I have found that flaky hardware shows up right away during a full build. An example of the errors: -- Feb 6 18:40:44 fern /kernel: : Encountered busy mailbox with 175 out of 192 commands active!!!bt0: Encountered busy mailbox with 174 out of 192 commands active!!!bt0: Encountered busy mailbox with 173 out of 192 commands active!!!bt0: btdone - Attempt to free non-active BCCB 0xf550f540 Feb 6 18:41:43 fern /kernel: (da0:bt0:0:0:0): CCB 0xf550f1c0 - timed out Feb 6 18:42:00 fern /kernel: bt0: btdone - Attempt to free non-active BCCB 0xf550d3c0 Feb 6 18:42:00 fern /kernel: (da0:bt0:0:0:0): CCB 0xf550f1c0 - timed out Feb 6 18:42:00 fern /kernel: bt0: No longer in timeout -- I found these error messages in the buslogic driver /usr/src/sys/dev/buslogic/bt.c, but I'm not quite sure what they mean. I'm really not sure if this is a hardware error in the disk, the SCSI board, or something else... I ran all of the diagnostics that are available on the Buslogic card, including an integrity check on the disk. Everything checks out okay according to those tests. Does anyone have any thoughts on this before I start replacing hardware? Thank you.

The numeric names like "handbook43.html" may change, but many pages have a link with a more descriptive name. $ cd /usr/doc/handbook $ make FORMATS=html The file "handbook.ln" will then contain a list of the symbolic links that will be created.

I am NFS exporting a 4GB /home file system from DIANA, my main Linux file server, and importing it to ATHENA, which runs FreeBSD 2.2.7. Users on ATHENA (the FreeBSD system) can read files on DIANA:/home, and they can create very small files, but if they try to write a file of moe than about 70 bytes, they get "FILE TRUNCATED" errors, and nothing gets written. It looks to me as if writes work when the data fits in the inode, but fail when a data block has to be allocated. (Does Linux use that storage scheme ? I know BSD does.) 1) I thought this might be due to user limits, but the "limits" command says everything is unlimited 2) NFS mounts from a HP-UX system work fine (I have an HP-16601 Logic Analyzer which access the same file system via NFS).

Has that been improved? You can read the ChangeLog if you want: http://www.windowmaker.org/src/ChangeLog Window Maker is not flawed in getting between desktops. There is however no pager which may be what you're used to. Coming from AfterStep I was used to that and initially disliked the fact that Window Maker didn't have one as well. I've since found using a pager to be awkward. There are a number of ways to get around from desktop to desktop: - the clip - stick the "Workspaces" menu to the desktop and use that instead - use the keyboard shortcuts to move around Brett ****************************************************************** Brett Taylor brett@peloton.physics.montana.edu http://peloton.physics.montana.edu/brett/ "Bart, a woman is like a beer.

It may not be the prettiest language ever, but I don't think it's too bad. That's not to say I can read and understand all Perl code, but a lot of the things I've come across haven't been too bad. > the > write-only nature of both perl and C++ means that, even when > people get something working, it's almost impossible for the > author (let alone anybody else) to make changes later without > breaking everything. For someone who isn't a Perl programmer, maybe. I have written scripts, then come back to them and though "why on earth did I do that", but that's mostly been because I didn't put comments in the code, which would have been equally true whatever language I had used. > The obvious examples of languages that are > worth learning are C and Python (and probably lisp). I agree about C, but but like C++, I haven't seen much Python. I think I'll just stick with Perl and C. (A friend of mine thinks Java is the best language around. hmm...)

It may not be the prettiest language ever, but I don't think it's too bad.

For someone who isn't a Perl programmer, maybe. I have written scripts, then come back to them and though "why on earth did I do that", but that's mostly been because I didn't put comments in the code, which would have been equally true whatever language I had used. > The obvious examples of languages that are > worth learning are C and Python (and probably lisp). I agree about C, but but like C++, I haven't seen much Python. I think I'll just stick with Perl and C. (A friend of mine thinks Java is the best language around. hmm...)

FreeBSD dosen't really care what kind of scanner you're running it seems. :) BUT, SANE, the program you'll probally use to run your scanner is compatible with a nice long list. There is also a driver that supports HP scanners, I don't know if it supports the new 'Plug and Pray' scanners (5p, 6p, etc...)

I've never heard or had any problems with it, in fact I've heard the emulation runs better then Linux itself... (admittidly from an anti-Linux person... please no flames here! :) > 2.)

If you enable linux emulation in your /etc/rc.conf file (linux_enable="YES"), and install the linux lib port (/usr/ports/emulators/linux_lib) you will be able to run just about any Linux program around unless it requires specialiezed libraries. You can use X based apps as well as command line stuff. > > 2.) How do I stay recent with my ports collection.

I stay current with cvsup (/usr/ports/net/cvsup). It will fetch the newest ports and changes to the old ones.

Since you mention it, just looked at what wish8.0 was doing on my system right now with exmh (3.0-stable, mostly elf). Eek! 10952k RES and SIZE of 11528k according to top. Going to have to break down and print the mutt manual and learn something new. Maybe procmail too. Possibly what is the final straw to break exmh's back is that sendmail no longer accepts messages from my exmh unless I have a live DNS connection. Good old: post: problem initializing server; [RPLY] 451 ... Sender domain must resolve send: message not delivered to anyone Hacked out the 451 reject rule in /etc/sendmail.cf, got another message. Hacked that one out, got yet another. And finally got a message I couldn't figure out where it was stopping. Didn't like the idea of clobering the default anti-spam sendmail rules, so either exmh goes or sendmail 8.9. Not much of a choice, not when mutt looks interesting. nmh-1.0 was announced the past week. Not sure if its in ports yet. But maybe replacing mh-6.8.4 with nmh will fix my mh/sendmail problem. -- 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.

It was a farily easy transition since 'everything is where it should be'... You will find most if not all things familiar. So why 12 PCI slots ? Above you have 5 segments, 2 of which probably should be on the same switched segments (3 and 4) since there will be a lot of cross talk... > >Since I've always used an El-Cheapo, works-out-of-the-box router, I >have a *massive* amount of homework to do before I take this project >on. I'll want this new router to perform a lot of advanced magic. If you are looking for routing magic of the cisco variety, you will be a little disappointed. Yeah, gated supports OSPF and BGP, but the free version is not nearly as configurable and tuneable as a fairly modern IOS (even basic things like AS path padding does not exist in the public gated). There are other alternatives in the works, but they are all labeled the Alpha variety, and I have no experience with them although one project looks promising (Zebra) >Finally, my question: Where can I find some in-depth documentation on >using FreeBSD for such a project (aside from `man gated'). www.gated.org, specifically look through the archives... But it can be quite sparse, and a lot of the talk switches back and forth between the 4.x release and the 3.x release which dont have the same features. ---Mike Mike Tancsa (mdtancsa@sentex.net) Sentex Communications Corp, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 8 18:36:34 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA18410 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 18:36:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from kiwi.pinnacle.co.nz (pinsoft.internet.co.nz [202.37.141.181]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA18401 for ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 18:36:26 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jonc@pinnacle.co.nz) Received: from kiwi.pinnacle.co.nz (kiwi.pinnacle.co.nz [202.37.163.2]) by kiwi.pinnacle.co.nz (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id PAA28695; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 15:35:03 +1300 (NZDT) Date: Tue, 9 Feb 1999 15:35:02 +1300 (NZDT) From: Jonathan Chen To: Masahiro Ariga cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Is my BSD wrong installed?

Is there anything similar in FreeBSD? > Mounting with 8.3 characters via msdos is not really a nice option. You don't indicate which release of FreeBSD you're running, but if it's a recent enough version, it has long filename support. Check with "man mount_msdos". One thing you might want to do is mount the partition with the -l option, as the MSDOS filesystem will default to short filenames unless there's a long filename in the root directory. >From the mount_msdos man page: -l Force listing and generation of Win'95 long filenames and sepa- rate creation/modification/access dates. If neither -s nor -l are given, mount_msdos searches the root di- rectory of the filesystem to be mounted for any existing Win'95 long filenames. If no such entries are found, but short DOS filenames are found, -s is the default. Otherwise -l is assumed.

I have 3 physical hard drives all of which are IDE. I want to install the freeBSD Linux on the Secondary Master hard drive, a 1.6 gig. I want to be able to dual boot WIN98 (which is on my primary master, a 4.3 gig) and the Linux (which I want to install to the Seconday Master). How would I do that?? I cannot get Linux to install to the secondary master. How can I do that?? I can use the whole Secondary Drive for Linux, but just as long as I can dual boot WIN98 and Linux. Please E-mail me back with the proper commands and such. I will be installing the Linux via the internet, so I downloaded the boot.flp image file and installed it to a floppy disk. I can boot using the disk, but when it asks for information at the "boot:", I do not know what to put. I will let the Linux do its on kernel. I don't understand the sd, wd, fd. What do those stand for?? Please return my E-Mail to terrell@netdirect.net Thank you for your time. -Brice Oliver To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 8 20:28:47 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA01122 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 20:28:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from peacock.tci.com (coral.tci.com [198.178.8.81]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA01117 for ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 20:28:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from chris@tci.com) Received: from oreo.tci.com (co-chris-pc01.tci.com [172.18.27.65]) by peacock.tci.com (8.9.0/8.9.0) with ESMTP id VAA28236; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 21:28:39 -0700 (MST) Received: from tci.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by oreo.tci.com (8.9.1b+Sun/8.9.1) with ESMTP id VAA24423; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 21:28:23 -0700 (MST) Message-ID: <36BFB967.C122495@tci.com> Date: Mon, 08 Feb 1999 21:28:23 -0700 From: Chris Tubutis Organization: Tele-Communications, Inc.

One reason might be that you've got a bunch of windows on a machine in one location (at work, say), and you somewhere else (home, perhaps) and you want to be able to access all of those same windows remotely. One solution for this is vnc, which is in the ports collection at: /usr/ports/net/vnc One problem: The port is broken because the distfile just moved...I just filed a PR with a patch for this. But you can get more info at: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/ Basically, it provides a pseudo-X display where you can run applications. You then run VNC viewers (available for many different platforms) that let you see the display and use your mouse and keyboard. Bruce. PS. Should you have a need to remote a Windoze screen, you can do that too. --DocE+STaALJfprDB Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBNr/MYajOOi0j7CY9AQHIdgP/WsKVd56lkGsPGM4HD51w8TO3bf1Xaj7D GTmeuQBDWUNTnueEteuUPEY5vwgxsXEU3q8Y1Ou9L7TIFlt8u70WyLTLnqwmnaWE vCvccM1xrYHUzg/NvHnmD2rxyOWTMXFmyG8nV1qM+Zy3xJYFk1wKg8efKHUd0ADq qAThbaT1dnk= =EPRq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --DocE+STaALJfprDB-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 8 22:23:25 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA13191 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 22:23:25 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from bsdbox.dynip.com (mad-wi6-22.ix.netcom.com [204.31.243.150]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id WAA13186 for ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 22:23:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from chrisd@bsdbox.dynip.com) Received: from localhost (chrisd@localhost) by bsdbox.dynip.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id AAA09525 for ; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 00:03:55 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from chrisd@bsdbox.dynip.com) Date: Tue, 9 Feb 1999 00:03:54 -0600 (CST) From: Stingray To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: FreeBSD and Notebooks 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 Anyone know a good notebook (<$3000) computer that runs FreeBSD/X11 with out a lot of problems? thanks To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 8 22:46:22 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA15266 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 22:46:22 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.hotpop.com (hotpop.com [204.57.55.22]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id WAA15261 for ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 22:46:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from fschan@phreaker.net) Received: from phreaker.net ([203.116.11.118]) by mail.hotpop.com (8.9.0/8.9.0) with ESMTP id BAA17027 for ; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 01:38:51 -0500 X-HotPOP: -------------------------------------------- Sent By HotPOP.com FREE Email Get your FREE POP email at www.HotPOP.com -------------------------------------------- Message-ID: <36BFDAD4.77C78A32@phreaker.net> Date: Tue, 09 Feb 1999 14:51:01 +0800 From: Fook Sheng X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (Win95; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG" Subject: FBSD 2.2.8 and 3.0 cd images??

(And lots of people will disagree with this > claim.) Parts of FreeBSD seem to me to be more mature, especially in the core parts of the system. Linux seems to be more complete overall. Take FreeBSD-current as of 2/1/1999 and Linux Redhat 5.2 with 2.2.1 kernel on my laptop. FreeBSD never crashes, however, pccard services don't work well and can lockup the system. The sound system, voxware or pcm, doesn't work well. Linux locks up the system once per week, however, pccard services work perfectly as does the sound system. -- Brian Litzinger To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 8 22:55:29 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA15715 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 22:55:29 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.rdc1.sfba.home.com (ha1.rdc1.sfba.home.com [24.0.0.66]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id WAA15708 for ; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 22:55:28 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from charon@freethought.org) From: charon@freethought.org Received: from c40948-a ([24.1.7.99]) by mail.rdc1.sfba.home.com (InterMail v4.00.03 201-229-104) with SMTP id <19990209065522.BVBI12321.mail.rdc1.sfba.home.com@c40948-a>; Mon, 8 Feb 1999 22:55:22 -0800 Message-Id: <3.0.5.32.19990208225517.00a23160@mail> X-Sender: tuathadedanann@mail X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0.5 (32) Date: Mon, 08 Feb 1999 22:55:17 -0800 To: Stingray , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: FreeBSD and Notebooks In-Reply-To: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG At 12:03 AM 2/9/99 -0600, Stingray wrote: >Anyone know a good notebook (<$3000) computer that runs FreeBSD/X11 with >out a lot of problems?

No more operational kernel... Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I've just upgraded from 2.2.7R to 3.0 Stable. Painless upgrade with the proper tutorials. However, for some reason, when building a custom kernel, they keyboard was unusable (conflict with sc0). This is something I didn't notice until after my mistake (I knew it wasn't working, I just thought it was another mistake I made in the config file). First reboot, was able to use kernel.old since it was the generic kernel built when upgrading. Should have saved that to kernel.GENERIC. I did have a kernel.GENERIC, however, it's a 2.2.7 kernel, so it bugs like hell and won't boot. So now I'm stuck with only two kernels, none of which will boot. Also, I didn't create a customized fixit floppy. I tried using the boot floppy but it brings me into an installation mode. I tried using the downloaded fixit floppy with it but it kept asking me to put a writable fixit floppy in the drive (it was there btw). I tried using kernel.flp and an ms-dos formatted floppy with mfsroot.gz in it, but this didn't work either. If I want to salvage this installation, what are my options? Consider that I just installed FreeBSD 2.2.7 yesterday, cvsup'ed 3.0 the same night, and did a make aout-to-elf build (yes, I forgot the - between elf and build, but the installation went without a hitch). No backups, no repair disks except for the images I d/l'ed from the site (you know the results I've had). I may be able to create one from an identical system which works, but I haven't been able to boot this one yet, so I haven't had access to the filesystem to replace the broken kernel (was hoping to use the kernel on the floppy to replace my broken one). Any ideas? Other options? BTW, this is a dual-boot system with Win98 on the first slice, and in the extended partition which is the third slice (FreeBSD is on the second slice).

Okay, I didn't think of that scenario -- probably because it horrifies me from security reasons. I would never leave a machine unattended that I was logged in to, unless it was in a secure room under my control, and then there'd be no need for this kind of trick. But, for people who either don't need to worry about the security implications or who don't care about them, this sounds like an interesting solution. > PS.

This is a really bad `solution'. because it engenders a false sense of security. Why do you think that many of the trojans left around are called `mroe'? Because it's a really common typo for `more' which won't be found in the system directories but will be found if `.' is in your PATH. Seriously, don't ever have `.' anywhere in your PATH. It buys you very little and can cost lots. -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Feb 9 03:55:12 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id DAA07288 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 03:55:12 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id DAA07133 for ; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 03:55:01 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 16874 invoked by uid 1001); 9 Feb 1999 10:42:53 -0000 Message-ID: <19990209104253.16873.qmail@alpha.comkey.com.au> X-Posted-By: GBA-Post 1.04 06-Feb-1999 X-PGP-Fingerprint: 5A91 6942 8CEA 9DAB B95B C249 1CE1 493B 2B5A CE30 Date: Tue, 09 Feb 1999 20:42:52 +1000 From: Greg Black To: jbarbee@singular.com (John Barbee) Cc: Andrew Lankford , cjclark@home.com, FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: Making my login class capabilities database work right on 2.2.5 References: In-reply-to: of Mon, 08 Feb 1999 17:14:04 PST Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > not everyone uses xterm. personally, i use kvt.

That's obviously personal preference. I'm used to using both keys and mice for that (my preferred window manager is fvwm2 which is good that way but is unfortunately broken under FreeBSD-2.2.8) -- but my customers, who are the people I have to please when I set up systems, want a pager. > There are a > number of ways to get around from desktop to desktop: > > - the clip No good, because you have to get it to display the desktops first and then select one.

That's their choice, but it all adds up to windowmaker not being a suitable tool. I was just curious to see if it had perhaps adopted a pager for this kind of user, because the rest of the program is really very nice and would have been a good choice. I'm not about to go badmouthing it because it doesn't do what these people need, I was just curious about its current direction. -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Feb 9 03:55:10 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id DAA07181 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 03:55:10 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id DAA07135 for ; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 03:55:01 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 16812 invoked by uid 1001); 9 Feb 1999 10:37:22 -0000 Message-ID: <19990209103722.16811.qmail@alpha.comkey.com.au> X-Posted-By: GBA-Post 1.04 06-Feb-1999 X-PGP-Fingerprint: 5A91 6942 8CEA 9DAB B95B C249 1CE1 493B 2B5A CE30 Date: Tue, 09 Feb 1999 20:37:21 +1000 From: Greg Black To: David Kelly Cc: "Kevin T.

After this i have file "server" (rwxr-xr-x) in my home directory. 1. What does compiler means in his warning messages ? 2. How can I correctly compile my threaded program ?

I made a poor choice of words. I should've said "added functionality" instead of "'fix'". You are absolutely right, w/who/finger are not broken in anyway whatsoever. They do exactly what they are spec-ed to do. However, IMO w/who/finger should not only return those users who have regular logins but also X logins. In the ports list there are the following X terminals: 9term, aterm, emu, eterm, rxvt and of course xterm which comes with X and kvt which comes with KDE (which isn't totally functional but kvt works, thank god), not to mentioned the non-englisn X terminals. Doesn't it seem more efficient if w/who/finger takes on this added functionality rather than configuring different terminal programs (which I understand you don't since you only use xterm, but I'm saying not every does). Furthermore, doesn't returning the current X logins seems more in the line of w/who/finger's functionality? A terminal program's major functionality is to handle the user doing stuff not to tell whatever database that someone has logged in. IMO one of the great things about unix was that most programs did one thing and one thing well and you string them up by piping or by redirecting.

VNC presents a separate X display from the one you use when you run a "normal" X server. So you actually can fire up a VNC server and have a X pseudo-display without being physically logged in on the console. I'm probably not explaining this well (no caffeine yet this morning), but there's more details on the VNC web pages for those who are interested in this particular scenario. VNC has password protection on the displays it remotes, and there are people who have successfully tunneled its protocol through SSH. True, this isn't a panacea, but it might not be quite as bad as you think. I won't claim this is a "secure" solution (whatever that means), but on the other hand, I don't think its use needs to be restricted to those who don't care about security either. > > PS.

Unfortunately, I can't seem to get FreeBSD's boot manager to come up. The only way I can boot FreeBSD is using the boot floppy and the command: 1:wd(1,a)kernel. I have tried using BOOTINST.EXE in the /TOOLS directory. Every time I run it, I get the following error messages: Cannot write to file bootsav.bin Cannot write to file boot2sav.bin Is it possible to install FreeBSD's boot manager without reinstalling FreeBSD? If so, how? Can Windows NT's "OS Loader" handle the task?

I have installed X windows and KDE desktop (kde-1.0 'Meta-port' for the KDE integrated desktop X11). I have installed an appropiate driver for the sound card and rebuilt my Kernel. I have checked that KDE has kdelnk files. I want to open kmpeg 1,2,3 so that i can play audio files. I haven't got a clue on how to open the files, if I try to open the files by clicking on the icons I simply get the browser option "open with". I can't open the file with anything that is in the toolbar menu. How do I go about opening such files ? Do I have to move the files to another location? Can i open them using the Unix terminal ? Do I need additional files (i.e. shell file) ? Do I need a better knowledge of kfm ? If you give me any information on how to open files, I would be most grateful !

To solve this, I have read about sudo tools and there maybe a possibility with amd. But what is the reason about this behavior? As I said, under Debian Linux, you just have to add the option 'user' in the fstab file. Why no such options under FreeBSD? Anyway, I found the solution with sudo more flexible but I am just curious to know what is the reason about not being able to do this directly with the system. ;-) Thanks. Phil.

It then worked exactly as it does now, only playing 1/2 second of audio then dead silence. I noticed that one of my SCSI controllers was using IRQ 10 as well, so I switched the sound card to IRQ 9. Still nothing. Thanks in advance for all tips/ideas/etc! Aaron out.

I just installed FreeBSD 2.2.8 onto a 58-meg hd, 486/33/8m, 2m swap. This is my only spare machine at this time. I of course picked minimal install. It runs *fine*. I used the boot floppy, ethernet and ftp -- I must say that is a beautiful device. I found it was a little cryptic but I was able to get it going once I saw I had to hard-set the ed0 i/o (ne2000) Except df => 99% usage, no great surprise. I note that sendmail is enclosed in this absolute minimum install. I do not need it for basic familiarity and DNS experiments. I have some linux background. In redhat linux, their minimal install defaults to having sendmail as well. But one can run rpm -e sendmail (Redhat Package Manager) and it is gone, saving disk space. Ditto for some other packages. I was able to get RH 4.1 down to a working 66% df on this machine I cannot figure out how to cleanly uninstall sendmail from BSD. I take the pkg_*** suite to be equiv of RH rpm; but pkg_info gives nothing. I assume the sendmail pkg is not registered as an installed package in FreeBSD. Is sendmail just too tightly constructed into FreeBSD for me to get it out? I do note that the rpm -e command in RedHat can get you into trouble. you can remove your libs and other things, and I could see controlling that feature. But is there a way to cleanly remove sendmail et al from this minimal 2.2.8 install? Or should I just remove the related binaries and files? Will that be okay as long as sendmail is turned off in rc.local? quick general feedabck: Over all, I would state I am impressed by FreeBSD so far. I had not thought it would rival linux, but I think it does. especially for someone wanting a stable, manageable, somewhat straight-up installation perhaps for biz purposes. Seems better geared for that than the wildness and rawness of linux. E.g. the rc.local implementation is notably un-cryptic. Seems nothing is that simple in linux. And obviously per my installation, FreeBSD does not mind minimal hardware at all. Thanks much in advance for any reply.

Date: Tu, 09 Feb 1999 From: imgfac@gate.net I have a Digiboard "dumb" 8 port multiport card (PC/8) installed in a FBSD 2.2.8 box, correctly configured and showing all ports, ports test fine for dial out via modem and dial in via modem (all ttydx, cuaax and related /dev files created and in place). Okay. I wanted to direct-connect a 386 PC via a null modem cable (see FBSD Handbook section 14.2.2.1 Cables) connected to the com1 (db-25) PC serial port (at 2400Bd according to the MSD diagnostic Utility) and connected to the third serial port of the digiboard octopus cable (db-25). I am using qmodem 4.6 comm s/w as a terminal emulator configured as vt100 at 2400Bd 8,n,1, but I cannot get any screen on the PC, not even if I switch term emulation from vt100 to TTY at same baud, etc. In ttys (on the Unix machine) I have the serial line configured thus: ttyd3 "/usr/libexec/getty std.2400" vt100 on secure This port shows up with command: ps -ax in the PID list I have also played around with the term identifier changing it from vt100 to dialup, just to see if it made a difference. It did not. I do not get a login prompt on the pc/term screen. A db-25 line fault tester indicates traffic on the cable from the pc to the unix box but i do not get a login prompt (or did I say that already?) I have read and re-read the various man pgs and hbk and faqs, but Surely I am missing something here. This is a new installation and I am a new-bee (to FBSD). So folks, what am I missing or should I do to get this exercise home? Please do not suggest a switch to mgetty as I first need to finish with this issue. An e-mail reply would be preferred. thanks, .if.

Imake seems to be missing .h header files, gmake runs into the same trouble. Other ports install hassle-free. I've read the FAQ's on this, and consulted the handbook, but so far no cigar. I hope there is someone out there who can help me?

It was suggested to me that this problem had been discussed in the past on freebsd-hackers, and that a fix was expected to be in FreeBSD 3.1 (due out any day now). I failed to find any prior FreeBSD bug reports or freebsd-hackers discussion, but I think I have found a description and a partial fix in the Debian Linux bug database, http://www.debian.org/Bugs/db/28/28642.html. If I understand the writeup correctly, FreeBSD 2.2.6 and 2.2.7 will under some circumstances generate a malformed write command packet, which is being rejected by Linux NFSD versions from a October 1998, which happens to be about when RedHat 5.2 was packaged. It would seem that upgrading either of the two systems would resolve the problem. Most likely, I will try to retrieve the latest binary package of Linux's nfs-server package and hope that fixes the problem. I am sending this message to - inform freebsd-questions readers (and archive searchers) about the solution - ask freebsd-hackers to confirm that the problem is indeed resolved and which of the following releases contain the fix: 2.2.8, 3.0, 3.1 ?? / Lars Poulsen E-mail: Senior Software Engineer Telephone: +1-805-964-5848 ext 279 UtiliCom Inc, 323 David Love Place, Santa Barbara, CA 93117, USA To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Feb 9 17:23:34 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA13174 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 17:23:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from nyc-ny75-03.ix.netcom.com (nyc-ny75-03.ix.netcom.com [209.109.228.67]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id RAA13164 for ; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 17:23:31 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from spork@startrekmail.com) Received: from localhost (spork@localhost) by nyc-ny75-03.ix.netcom.com (8.9.2/8.8.7) with ESMTP id UAA10966 for ; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 20:21:54 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from spork@startrekmail.com) X-Authentication-Warning: nyc-ny75-03.ix.netcom.com: spork owned process doing -bs Date: Tue, 9 Feb 1999 20:21:38 -0500 (EST) From: Spike X-Sender: spork@nyc-ny69-14.ix.netcom.com Reply-To: sporkl@ix.netcom.com To: fbsdqs Subject: Heavy copy operation errors 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 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- While copying the entire ports collection from one filesystem to another, I got the following error messages: On the console: (da0:ahc0:0:0:0): READ(10).

So let's look at it. The complaint is: Can't exec "/usr/sbin/sysctl -n user.cs_path": No such file or directory So let's check: $ ls -l /usr/sbin/sysctl lrwxrwxrwx 1 root bin 30 Jan 17 16:03 /usr/sbin/sysctl -> /R/stage/trees/bin/sbin/sysctl But we don't have any directory tree /R/stage/... so the symlink is wrong. So now let's fix it to point to a real version of sysctl (as root): $ sudo ln -sf /sbin/sysctl /usr/sbin $ whereis test test: /bin/test /usr/share/man/man1/test.1.gz /usr/src/bin/test There, that wasn't too hard... But it's definitely a bug in the distribution, so you might as well report it. -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Feb 9 17:24:33 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA13353 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 17:24:33 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id RAA13328 for ; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 17:24:21 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 19382 invoked by uid 1001); 10 Feb 1999 00:59:28 -0000 Message-ID: <19990210005928.19381.qmail@alpha.comkey.com.au> X-Posted-By: GBA-Post 1.04 06-Feb-1999 X-PGP-Fingerprint: 5A91 6942 8CEA 9DAB B95B C249 1CE1 493B 2B5A CE30 Date: Wed, 10 Feb 1999 10:59:28 +1000 From: Greg Black To: "John Barbee" Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Making my login class capabilities database work right on 2.2.5 References: <000b01be5437$b83491e0$0700a8c0@farpoint> In-reply-to: <000b01be5437$b83491e0$0700a8c0@farpoint> of Tue, 09 Feb 1999 06:23:10 PST Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > I'm sorry.

I think you've completely missed the point of this -- w/who/finger don't do anything except read a database that has been updated by programs involved with the login process. So, even if you really want this extra functionality, it doesn't belong there -- it has to be part of the X logins that you're concerned about. I don't care about this issue, because I prefer to have every xterm write in the utmp file and it's trivial to arrange with my Xresources file. But, if I cared about this, I would spend a few minutes with the sources of xlogout and one of the programs that does update utmp, and I'd add the utmp update stuff to xlogout. Then I'd make xlogout the non-background program in my .xsession file and then, for no effort to speak of, I'd have something that would put an entry in utmp when I logged in, that would give me a button to press when I wanted to logout, and that would remove the utmp entry when I logged out. Quick, easy, and maybe even something you could contribute to the world. -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Feb 9 17:24:35 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA13357 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 17:24:35 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id RAA13329 for ; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 17:24:21 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 19523 invoked by uid 1001); 10 Feb 1999 01:12:03 -0000 Message-ID: <19990210011203.19522.qmail@alpha.comkey.com.au> X-Posted-By: GBA-Post 1.04 06-Feb-1999 X-PGP-Fingerprint: 5A91 6942 8CEA 9DAB B95B C249 1CE1 493B 2B5A CE30 Date: Wed, 10 Feb 1999 11:12:03 +1000 From: Greg Black To: jim@corp.au.triax.com Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: WindowMaker References: <19990209112130.17119.qmail@alpha.comkey.com.au> <19990209231222.A28805@corp.au.triax.com> In-reply-to: <19990209231222.A28805@corp.au.triax.com> of Tue, 09 Feb 1999 23:12:23 +1100 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 know of anything planned in the development itself, but > there's a dockapp pager (why not, everything else exists as a dockapp, > even tetris =)) that you might find useful.

I won't do anything with it now, because I've already spent several hours now getting olvwm to do what I want and it now meets all my requirements bar one (which I'll be able to fix with a few minutes in the source code), so I'll stick to it -- it's closer to what I used to use (fvwm2) and so suits me better.

If you prefer a system that does things differently, why not use that system? If you'd prefer to see FreeBSD do something differently, why not spend an hour or two to develop the feature that you want and submit it to the FreeBSD core team for possible integration in a future release? -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Feb 9 17:25:40 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id RAA13519 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 17:25:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from daedal.oneway.com (daedal.oneway.com [205.252.89.49]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id RAA13513 for ; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 17:25:39 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jay@oneway.com) Received: from localhost (jay@localhost) by daedal.oneway.com (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id UAA05451; Tue, 9 Feb 1999 20:25:37 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from jay@oneway.com) Date: Tue, 9 Feb 1999 20:25:37 -0500 (EST) From: Jay Kuri To: Clarence_Griffin@ed.gov cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: BSD friendly ISP?

I can see where this has the potential to turn into a pretty wicked flamefest, so let me just say that I *do* work in a mostly-Microsoft environment. That's a fact. This being true, I find the ability to remote a Windows-like screen useful, and it's nice that VNC is platform-independent enough to do it. I happen not to agree with your statements, but it's not worth us getting worked up into a long, meaningless argument.

Why? Does FreeBSD2.2.8-RELEASE have some faults when handing the 100M ethernet? I so love FreeBSD, I am not willing hear that FreeBSD is worse than slackware.

I upgraded from my 28.8 to a 3com IQ ISDN T/A. I changed the phone number, and try to connect. I get pass the PAP authentication, and then packets don't forward across the line. Connect the 28.8 modem to the serial port, dial the script, it connects and forwards packets. Connect the ISDN T/A to the same serial port dial the script get the dynamic IPs assigned. I try to ping the local assigned IP, and I get 100% packet failure. Ping the remote IP, get 100% packet failure, but the SD/RD lights flash on the T/A. Reconnect the 28.8 modem, and all work correctly. If I setup the ISDN T/A to connect using v.120, it connects just fine. If I change the pap-secrets file to contain the wrong password, the ppp connection fails, but the correct password back I get assigned IPs. So, there is some talking working across the T/A. Bellow I have the registers from the T/A, my dialing script, my ppp options file, a sample pap-secrets file, and the syslog from the pppd proc. Thanks, Dave I have the registers from the T/A. ==> AT\S is : IDLE 00:00:20 LAST DIAL n/a PORT 1 ANI n/a PORT 2 ANI n/a DATA ANI n/a CAUSE CODE (000) Unspecified SERIAL BPS 115200 AT$B0 (AUTO) SERIAL FLOW H/W AT\Q3 DCD 1 AT&C1 DTR 2 AT&D2 DATA ECHO ON ATE1 RESULTS ON ATQ0 RESULT TYPE LONG ATV1 CONNECT MSG DTE ATW0 INACTIVE TIMER 0 AT\T0 COMPRESSION ON AT%C2 B-CHAN PROT QuickSelect VOICE DBA IN/OUT ML PPP Enabled ML EPD CLASS 4 ML EPD ADDR 6029401297 L2 FRAME TYPE I-Frame V.120 Frm Sz 256 Bytes CALL WAITING Port 1 CONF CODE 60 TRANS CODE 61 DROP CODE 62 CALL STATUS Protocol: n/a, Rate: n/a ==> AT%R REG DEC HEX REG DEC HEX REG DEC HEX S00 000 00H S63 009 09H S79 062 3eH S50 003 03H S70 001 01H S80 001 01H S55 255 ffH S71 000 00H S82 005 04H S56 255 ffH S73 000 00H S84 001 01H S57 001 01H S74 256 100H S58 001 01H S75 000 00H S59 001 01H S76 001 01H S60 064 40H S77 060 3cH S61 000 00H S78 061 3dH S51 6025551297 S52 60255512971111 S53 6025551027 S54 60255510271111 S65 S66 S67 S83 6025551297 ==> /etc/ppp/p < my dialing script pppd connect 'chat -V "" ATS71=2S80=1 OK ATD5551212 CONNECT' /dev/cuaa0 \ 115200 crtscts modem defaultroute user joe ==> /etc/ppp/options debug modem crtscts defaultroute ==> /etc/ppp/pap-secrets joe * mypassword ==> pppd messages Feb 9 12:06:49 gateway pppd[3605]: pppd 2.3.5 started by root, uid 0 Feb 9 12:06:49 gateway pppd[3605]: pppd 2.3.5 started by root, uid 0 Feb 9 12:06:53 gateway pppd[3605]: Serial connection established.

The 3Com Impact acts _exactly_ like any other modem as far as pppd is concerned. I don't know of any reason why you would get different results from pppd with the TA than you would with any other modem, unless you have the TA misconfigured in some way. Unfortunately, you have provided no information so far that could help identify such misconfiguration. Nobody can help you if you don't send log files, and preferably, also what you get from the TA when you type "at\s" and "at%r" from a terminal program.

Hmm. These may be Greg's wishes, in which case that's OK. But that's not the purpose of finger. There are other tools to look at users on localhost; the normal use of finger is across the network, and this hack doesn't work there.

It looks to me as if your Linux box may in fact not be working correctly. telnet tries to resolve the name of the calling system, and it will time out after about a minute. I'm guessing that your FreeBSD box can't resolve the name. After you log in on the telnet, try this: $ who am i grog ttyp2 Feb 10 15:05 (freebie) If the name in parentheses is a number, then telnet can't perform the reverse lookup.

But how can you speak for everybody? You certainly don't speak for finger.1, which says: DESCRIPTION The finger displays information about the system users. ...and goes on, toward the end, to finally mention: Finger may be used to look up users on a remote machine. The format is to specify a user as ``user@host''... I don't consider this a hack, as it should be possible for the superuser to finger every user on the system should (s)he wish to do so.

Things like sendmail are part of the system, not packages that you can uninstall. If you install a package or port, you can subsequently uninstall it. If it's part of the system, you need to poke around and delete files yourself -- and you need to know what you're doing so that you don't shoot yourself in the foot. If you're really stuck for space, work your way through the directory structure with du to see where there are potential savings to be made -- but think before blindly deleting things or you may end up with something that has plenty of room but no ability to do anything useful. -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Feb 10 02:57:39 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id CAA10886 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 02:57:39 -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 CAA10881 for ; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 02:57:37 -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 2.12 #1) id 10AXKm-0001rO-00; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 10:57:33 +0000 Organisation: Radan Computational Ltd., Bath, UK.

That's a fact. Fair enough, I'm not disputing it. It's just a different fact from the one quoted above where you said: "Unfortunately I'm stuck in a mostly-Windoze shop." This suggests that you have no choice about where you work (which is difficult to believe unless you're utterly hopeless at your occupation) and that you consider it unfortunate that you're in this environment. My response was directed at those details, taken from your previous article. The point of this, and the reason I am returning to it, is that you could have simply said: "I happen to work in a Microsoft shop, so I need to be able to do XXX." I would not have chosen to comment on that. -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Feb 10 04:39:49 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id EAA21030 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 04:39:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from relay.ucb.crimea.ua (relay.ucb.crimea.ua [212.110.138.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id EAA21004; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 04:38:10 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ru@ucb.crimea.ua) Received: (from ru@localhost) by relay.ucb.crimea.ua (8.9.2/8.9.2/UCB) id OAA07411; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 14:36:21 +0200 (EET) (envelope-from ru) Date: Wed, 10 Feb 1999 14:36:20 +0200 From: Ruslan Ermilov To: Thomas David Rivers Cc: postmaster@FreeBSD.ORG, questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: announce@freebsd.org Message-ID: <19990210143620.A3453@ucb.crimea.ua> Mail-Followup-To: Thomas David Rivers , postmaster@freebsd.org, questions@FreeBSD.ORG References: <19990210064822.A705@xioa.cosmic.org> <199902101216.HAA03203@lakes.dignus.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.94.17i In-Reply-To: <199902101216.HAA03203@lakes.dignus.com>; from Thomas David Rivers on Wed, Feb 10, 1999 at 07:16:14AM -0500 X-Operating-System: FreeBSD 3.0-STABLE i386 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Wed, Feb 10, 1999 at 07:16:14AM -0500, Thomas David Rivers wrote: > Joe - > > You should be able to get off a FreeBSD mailing list by > sending e-mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org.

In other words, after I've supped down the repository, and before I checkout, and assume I don't have a good repository release timestamp for the set of sources on my box (failed to write down the time I cvsupped them), is there a way I can "back in" to my repository a local tag referring to the older versions now present on this box?

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi all, I have a hopefully simple sendmail question regarding masquerading. I have a two computer lan in my room, one of which acts as a gateway running natd to my sole connection to the outside world. I have a domain name registered, and want to my mail to come from joe@foo.bar instead of joe@machine.foo.bar, especially since my non-gateway machines don't have their names registered in DNS. Now, I have a cname for the gateway machine of mail.foo.bar (since it is my designated mail server) and an mx record foo.bar that points to mail.foo.bar. I've also modified sendmail as follows: - set DM to DMfoo.bar - set DR to DRmail.foo.bar - set DH to DHmail.foo.bar On the internal machine I've also set DS to DSmail.foo.bar. I've also got the following in /etc/mail/sendmail.cw on the mail server: foo.bar machine1.foo.bar machine2.foo.bar Now, everything seems to work fine for the most part. Now, if I run the following command on the internal machine: > cat | sendmail me To: me From: me Subject: test blah . > Then sendmail changes the From address to me@foo.bar and the To address and ReturnPath to me@machine.foo.bar. I also cannot run send-pr from my internal machine because mail delivery dies with this error: ----- Transcript of session follows ----- ... while talking to hub.freebsd.org.: >>> MAIL From: SIZE=2183 <<< 451 ... Domain does not resolve FreeBSD-gnats-submit@freebsd.org... Deferred: 451 ... Domain does not resolve Warning: message still undelivered after 4 hours Will keep trying until message is 5 days old Does anyone know what else I need to configure? I'd really like to be able to use send-pr as I've a few to submit, including a patch or two. :) Thanks. --- John Baldwin -- http://members.freedomnet.com/~jbaldwin/ PGP Key: http://members.freedomnet.com/~jbaldwin/pgpkey.asc To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Feb 10 06:16:36 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA01871 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 06:16:36 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from www.communique.no (www.communique.no [193.212.204.33]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id GAA01856 for ; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 06:16:31 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from are@communique.no) Received: (qmail 2872 invoked by uid 1001); 10 Feb 1999 14:29:04 -0000 Date: Wed, 10 Feb 1999 15:29:04 +0100 (CET) From: Are Bryne X-Sender: are@rune.communique.no To: FreeBSD questions list cc: Are Bryne Subject: TCP/IP prob with Pegasus over ijppp (-auto -alias) Message-ID: Organization: Communique DA MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: MULTIPART/MIXED; BOUNDARY="0-837555448-918656944=:2838" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This message is in MIME format.

I'm running a recent ijppp version, from january this year. The internal network uses private ip-addresses. They are aliased by ppp, and most things work wonderfully. However, I'm having a problem installing Pegasus Mail on one of the machines. However which way I configure it, it more or less looses out on the connection to the POP3 server. Sometimes it doesn't even manage to read the message list before attempting to download. It hasn't been able to download a single message. Outlook Express works ok on the same machine, so do other TCP/IP programs. I am looking into the TCP/IP logs of ppp, and will try to work out what's happening. However, I'd be very happy if someone else knows how to pinpoint this problem. A releveant TCP/IP connection log is attached. Thanks in advance. And please keep me cc'd.

Every ELF Motif Kit we've found (and have had donated) are Motif 2.x, which requires a runtime fee. We're looking into trying to find a Motif 1.2 license that we can use to create an ELF Motif, and then a JDK. For those who aren't aware of it, our JDK is statically compiled against a Motif 1.2 kit, so you don't need Motif installed on your system to work. We've toyed with the idea of releasing a JDK based on Lesstif, but (with no disrespect intended to the fine work the Lesstif folks!) it's not complete/stable enough for this purpose. So, if someone has a 1.2 license and source for Motif, that you'd be willing to donate to the cause, we have a Motif developer willing to build an ELF Motif, so we can release an ELF JDK. There's also some work that needs to be done to the source to make it ELF ready. This is follow-up work once we have the Motif libs. And of course, we could always use more programmers to come hack on the JDK sources (specifically experienced in C and FreeBSD)! Patrick --- Patrick S.

Sure, it's just a regular CVS repository, you can do anything you want with your copy - but methinks cvsup will remove them the next time you update your repo.

I am not clear on when you get these messages. Does it occur when you SIGHUP mountd or when you try to mount from the secondmachine? One question, is /usr/home an absolute path? You have not made a /home partition and made /usr/home a symlink to it, right? (It does not look like the right error message for that.) Oh, and one last thing, why are you testing this at 1:30 in the morning? ;) Now for a question of my own, I was looking at mountd docks again and was reminded of this. Why is the '-r' option on mountd in the default rc.conf? Seems like something few people really need, or is it such a harmless extension that it is added by default (in whichcase, why make it an option at all)? Will I break anything if I take it out (I'm not using it to my knowledge)? Is there a reason to take it out? -- Crist J.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Dear All, I had FreeBSD 2.7 in the same hard disk with win95. And I had boot manager installed from FBSD CD. So I could chose F1 or F2 to boot Win95 or FreeBSD. Yesterday, when I tried to add a new hard drive to the machine (I want to give FreeBSD more space), I mistakenly installed EZ Bios coming with the new disk of Western Digit, which erase the boot manager in the old disk. I could not boot into FreeBSD any more. How can I get my boot manger back without installation? I don't want to lose what I had there before. Many thanks in advance.

This still begs the question why he is getting mail if he has removed himself from the 'announce' list, even if spammers have figured out this gaping hole in majordomo. My understanding is that going to 'vmailer-announce' circumvents filters on freebsd-announce, but shouldn't the distribution of mail, from either, be the same? jack, you have removed yourself from announce?

You example is not very revelant because you are comparing two different system and it is very easy to find a workaround. Anyway, I like the sudo feature because as far as I understand, you can easily choose who can or cannot mount a device. I just want to know what is the technical reason why by default, only root can mount the cdrom. Thanks anyway Phil.

Works with "who /var/log/wtmp" but not with a>just plain old "who". The man page for sessreg complains that BSD's a>interface to utmp is just inferior to SysV's. The gall! so anyway, as you we can get this far with just two tweak in xdm's config files with sessreg. it's doesn't depend on a user's xsessions file and doesn't require you to play with xsessions or xlogout. and from there it's just a slight tweak of w/who/finger to get them to output the x sessions as well as regular terminal logins. this is what i meant by "added functionality" if i didn't make that clear before. the last time i tried to do this was a while ago and i haven't picked it up again. i got involved in this because andrew asked the list about it. anyway, i understand you don't really care about this issue but i'm sure andrew would appreciate it if you'd help him find the tweak for finger/w/who or sessreg to log X logins in utmp and/or wtmp. anyway, since we're in pretty close agreement what how this should work (logging into X logs something in utmp, etc.) there's no need to take this any further unless we feel like helping andrew with the tweaking. i'd like to bring this to a close. john.

Boot with the FreeBSD install floppy and wait for the `boot:' prompt. At that point, enter `0:wd(0,a)kernel' (I suppose your old disk is the first IDE hard drive). FreeBSD will boot as usual. 2. Login as root, start `/stand/sysinstall'. Go to the general configuration menu and call fdisk (the disk slice editor). Don't change anything, just type `w' to make the whole thing written again. Then you'll be asked whether the boot manager shall be installed. After that, the master boot record will be rewritten. Leave sysinstall. 3. Take a look at `diff /etc/rc.conf /etc/rc.conf.previous' to make sure sysinstall didn't change anything. 4. Reboot the system. The boot manager should be there.

Because an unscrupulous user could insert a CDrom with a setuid-root sh binary and become root, or they could create a character device with [major,minor] of [2,1] (i.e. /dev/kmem) with world-write permissions, and become root by twiddling the kernel memory. Or they could insert a cdrom/floppy with an intentionally invalid filesystem on it and panic the system. If you limit mount() access to people who are already root, this isn't a problem. You could alter the mount() syscall to force "noexec, nosuid, nodev" whenever a non-root user tries to mount anything, but don't come running to us when he goes and mounts a cdrom on top of /bin or /tmp or something :) The best solution to the "user wants to mount a floppy/cdrom" problem is make a sudo wrapper that mounts a device in a predetermined place, with the noexec, nosuid, and nodev flags turned on, and provide a separate wrapper for unmounting. -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 Feb 10 09:28:57 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id JAA23941 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 09:28:57 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mailgw01.execpc.com (mailgw01.execpc.com [169.207.2.78]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA23935 for ; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 09:28:56 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mhx@execpc.com) Received: from execpc.com (androzani-2-11.mdm.mke.execpc.com [169.207.92.139]) by mailgw01.execpc.com (8.9.0) id LAA18235 for ; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 11:28:54 -0600 (CST) Message-ID: <36C1C12F.9E275102@execpc.com> Date: Wed, 10 Feb 1999 11:26:07 -0600 From: mhx X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (Win95; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: syslogd in freebsd 3.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I was wondering if syslogd is exploitable some how?

Could you e-mail me: what files (Directories) should be contained on the first CD and what files (Directories) should be contained on the second CD? This would really help me out. Thanks a lot!

Afraid that someone might capture your system messages when they're not supposed to. However, syslogd does run as a daemon on port 514 and is susceptible to attacks just like any other daemon.

First of all I installed all sources from CDROM (CD number 1 from 4-disks pack). Then I created custom configuration file naed GREENWITCH where I turned on ncr0 driver. Then I tried to start "config GREENWITCH" - it worked. Then I switched to compile/GREENWITCH directory and issued "make depend". After some time it reported that file scsi/scsiconf.h referenced in pci/tek390.c can't be found. After examination I've found that files scsi/scsi*.h referenced in the following files alpha/tc/esp.c:#include alpha/tc/esp.c:#include ^^^^^^^^ (this one is referenced if compiling for NetBSD, but not for FreeBSD) alpha/tc/esp.c:#include alpha/tc/tcds_dma.c:#include alpha/tc/tcds_dma.c:#include dev/dpt/dpt_control.c:#include dev/isp/isp_freebsd.h:#include i386/isa/aic6360.c:#include i386/isa/aic6360.c:#include i386/isa/bs/bsif.h:#include i386/isa/bs/bsif.h:#include i386/isa/bs/bsif.h:#include i386/isa/bs/bsif.h:#include i386/isa/bs/bsif.h:#include i386/isa/bs/bsif.h:#include i386/isa/ncr5380.c:#include i386/isa/seagate.c:#include i386/isa/ultra14f.c:#include i386/isa/ultra14f.c:#include i386/isa/wd7000.c:#include pci/tek390.c:#include ^^^^^^^^^^ (this one uses .h file in all configuration) can't be found simply because directory /usr/src/sys/scsi/ is missing. I've copied them from my old 2.2.7 system and finally was able to finish "make depend". But I can't compile - there're some undefined symbols in pci/tek390.c. I know that ncr driver is not supported by CAM and should use old SCSI subsystem but I can't find it. I've looked to ftp://ftp.freebsd.org to /pub/FreeBSD/3.0-STABLE/src/sys/ but there is no scsi/*.h files. There are cam/scsi/*.h files but the file scsiconf.h is not there, so I assume that it's not what I'm looking for. Can you give me any advise where to look? -- Bye Alexey Kats alexeyk@retailpro.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Feb 10 10:34:15 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA01074 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 10:34:15 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com (cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com [24.2.89.207]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA01069 for ; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 10:34:14 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from cjc@cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com) Received: (from cjc@localhost) by cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA16243; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 13:35:44 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from cjc) From: "Crist J.

Right, I have that at the top of 'man inode' (I suspect the kernel would not compile too well without those), but there is a reference to at the very bottom of the manpage, right before the HISTORY portion. -- Crist J.

It looks like the kde port is looking in /var/db/pkg to see if XFree86-3.3.3.1 was installed. Installing XFree86 from sources did not update the pkg directory. Maybe you can create an empty directory /var/db/pkg/XFree86-3.3.3.1 and that will be sufficient. Or, just reinstall XFree86 from the ports tree (/usr/ports/x11/XFree86), which will update your pkg listing too.

You can see what files a port installs by looking in pkg/PLIST, for example /usr/ports/math/fudgit/pkg/PLIST. Once a port or package is installed, you can instead look in, for example, /var/db/pkg/Fudgit-2.41/+CONTENTS. These lists are relative to $PREFIX, typically /usr/local or /usr/X11R6. But, it looks like the Fudgit port does not include the users' guide. Maybe you should bother the port's maintainer, jmz@FreeBSD.org. -- Matthew Hunt * UNIX is a lever for the intellect. -J.R.

This should involve setting up ppp.conf on the client and server ends, and modifying inet.conf on the remote end. You'll probably need to tweak the keepalive values in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf also. Turning on ppp logging lets you see what's going on. There are a couple of knobs for this in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf as well as /etc/syslog.conf. Also once this is working learn the routing you need to make this work if you intend on connecting two networks via this ppp tunnel. Once you have that working go ahead and learn to use the TCP port forwarding features of ssh. A good way to learn this is to do something like "ssh remote-machine -L 8000:127.0.0.1:23", then on the local machine also do "telnet 127.0.0.1 8000". You'll need multiple shells open to play with this. Modify the working ppp.conf for your local end so it tries to connect to localhost on some port #. Start secure shell with forwarding from that local port number to the port number inetd on the remote machine is litening to for ppp over tcp connections. Experiment. You'll need multiple shells open on the local machine to do this. Finally try to use a shell script for driving these operations. You'll need to set up the remote machine to allow a secure shell session from a particular user on your machine to login without a password. Ssh needs to be run in the background, redirecting output to /dev/null. You'll need to send the remote end a "sleep" shell command to keep the ssh session open long enough for ppp to get started. "ssh -n -l pppuser -L 8000:127.0.0.1:8000 sleep 30 > /dev/null &" If you get all of that working you'll want to tweek the mru/mtu values on both ends of the ppp tunnel, these values will depend on whether you're looking for interactive or bulk throughput. Finally, if you're running 3.0R on both machines you may want to look into using the KAME Project's IPSEC for IPv4 that has been ported. I'm unaware of what documentation for this is available.

Message-Id: <19990210201901.026071@relay.skynet.be> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Folks, I'm in the process of setting up a new anonymous ftp server for the ISP that I work for, and I'm wondering if you might be able to give me some advice. Specifically, I have currently chosen to go with Solaris 2.6/x86 + Solstice DiskSuite 4.1 (RAID 5) + UFS logging. Among other things, this gives me a log-structured filesystem so that I never have to fsck /export/home/ftp, the DiskSuite tools let me grow the filesystem while it's online (and it doesn't have to be blown away and re-newfs'ed), and there are some pretty cool performance monitoring tools available from Rich Petit (SymbEL 3.x) and Adrian Crockcraft (author of the book _Sun Performance and Tuning: Java and the Internet_). Now, I can't change the hardware (400Mhz Intel Pentium II w/ 256MB RAM, internal Western Digital 4.3GB UltraSCSI2 HD, Adaptec 3940UW SCSI controller, five Quantum 9GB and four Western Digital 9GB UltraSCSI2 drives). The two sets of SCSI disk drives are mounted as two separate filesystems. However, if there were likely to be a significant performance increase with FreeBSD 3.0 + vinum + softupdates, I'd seriously consider switching (although I'd still want to try to find some decent performance monitoring tools, hopefully as good as SymbEL 3.x). At the moment, I'm not interested in running these drives in pure striping mode. The machine isn't *that* important to us and our customers that we need a hardware RAID controller, but whereas you could probably get away with just striping a news server, I think the downtime on a system-wide ftp server would probably not be acceptable. If anyone can provide alternative arguments to this position, I'd love to hear them. One thing I do know (from scouring previous posts to this mailing list, as well as previous posts to news.software.nntp), is that you want to set the stripe size as large as you feasibly can, so that any file access is highly likely to hit only one disk at a time, thus allowing multiple simultaneous disk accesses to be relatively evenly spread over all drives that are available. Is there anything else I should know? -- Brad Knowles If you wouldn't take out a one-page ad in the Wall Street Journal to say something, then don't say it by email.

The vmailer-announce address isn't really a gaping hole in majordomo itself; it is a hole in the majordomo/MTA interface. It may be a hole in vmailer; or it might be a hole in the specific configuration used for these lists. I had no difficulty closing that hole when using majordomo with Exim - I simply added the options to only recognize the majordomo output addresses when the connection was local and the uid/gid of the connecting process matched those I use for majordomo. (I should note that the majordomo addresses are not listed in a standard aliases file. Instead, I have a separate director that matches on the constant part of those addresses and then constructs the name of the aliasfile from the rest.) -Pat To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Feb 10 11:47:53 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA10008 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 11:47:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id LAA09984 for ; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 11:47:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 23134 invoked by uid 1001); 10 Feb 1999 19:33:38 -0000 Message-ID: <19990210193338.23133.qmail@alpha.comkey.com.au> X-Posted-By: GBA-Post 1.04 06-Feb-1999 X-PGP-Fingerprint: 5A91 6942 8CEA 9DAB B95B C249 1CE1 493B 2B5A CE30 Date: Thu, 11 Feb 1999 05:33:38 +1000 From: Greg Black To: Philippe CASIDY Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Mounting CDROM (or removable media) by users References: <199902101635.RAA03064@greatoak.home> In-reply-to: <199902101635.RAA03064@greatoak.home> of Wed, 10 Feb 1999 17:35:55 +0100 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > You example is not very revelant because you are comparing two > different system and it is very easy to find a workaround.

There is no technical reason. But there are several compelling security reasons why you don't want to generally allow random users to mount anything (not just CDROMs) in places of their choosing.

This is too incomplete for anybody to answer. You have to fully specify what each group can do, bearing in mind that there are three permissions on directories for each of owner, group and world: read, write and search. Is the first group only to have write access (as you stated), or do they get read and/or search as well? Ditto for the second group? In any case, there is no way with the normal unix permission mechanism to provide different permissions for different groups on the same resource. There are usually simple workarounds, but you'd need to explain more about what you're trying to do. The most common approach would make the directory owned by a group that had no members and with full permission only for the group. Access would be controlled by a setgid program that would check individuals' rights and act accordingly. If you didn't want to write a setgid program, or if you wanted people to be able to use multiple programs on the contents of the directory, you could accomplish your goals with sudo (which can provide quite fine-grained control and allows specifying programs together with required arguments as part of its magic). -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Feb 10 11:47:59 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA10033 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 11:47:59 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id LAA09983 for ; Wed, 10 Feb 1999 11:47:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 23068 invoked by uid 1001); 10 Feb 1999 19:22:46 -0000 Message-ID: <19990210192246.23067.qmail@alpha.comkey.com.au> X-Posted-By: GBA-Post 1.04 06-Feb-1999 X-PGP-Fingerprint: 5A91 6942 8CEA 9DAB B95B C249 1CE1 493B 2B5A CE30 Date: Thu, 11 Feb 1999 05:22:46 +1000 From: Greg Black To: cjclark@home.com Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Get Filename from Inode References: <199902101732.MAA16082@cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com> In-reply-to: <199902101732.MAA16082@cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com> of Wed, 10 Feb 1999 12:32:14 EST Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > I have some error messages reporting problems with files by their > inode numbers.

You need to know which file system your target file is in or you may get confusing results -- inode numbers are only unique on a single filesystem. If you know which directory the files are in, a simpler way is with the "-i" option to ls(1). You don't need it for this exercise, since find can certainly do what you want, but if you ever decide that you need to write code yourself to walk the file system, the man page to start with is fts(3) which describes the routines used by find and ls. > PS: 'man inode' refers to a , but I have no > /usr/include/sys/inode/.h file.

Of course you don't have "/usr/include/sys/inode/.h" -- the expression "" refers to "/usr/include/sys/inode.h" which you may or may not have -- it doesn't exist on 2.2.8, but then the 2.2.8 man page refers to "" and 2.2.8 does have "/usr/include/ufs/ufs/inode.h", as you would expect.

Just start by > deleting that fat partition and shrink the extended. > I am using Partition Magic 3.02 and I have free space as a primary partition. The PC already has Linux, DOS 6, and Windows NT installed. The pqmagict.exe shows there are three primary partitions available and their sizes are 31.3MB, 4769.2MB, and 1349.2MB respectively. The first two are also shown in the DOS fdisk command. The second primary partition contains 7 subpartition: 4 labeled as Linux Ext2, 2 labeled as Linux swap, and 1 labeled as NTFS (I guess this is for Windows NT). I insert CD-ROM and reboot from it. At the FDISK screen, I see four entries: offset size end name ptype desc subtype 0 63 62 - 6 unused 63 64197 64259 wd0s1 2 fat 4 <-- DOS 64260 9767520 9831779 wd0s2 4 extended 5 <-- extended primary 9831780 2363180 12594959 wd0s3 3 freebsd 165 CA My question is: How come FreeBSD regard the first entry as unused? Why Partition Magic does not show this entry (It only shows the last three, wd0s1-wd0s3)? Why there are FOUR entries instead of THREE entries (each represent a primary partition)? Where does the extra entry (first one) come from? By the way, I installed FreeBSD on another PC successfully and devoted ALL disk space to FreeBSD on that machine. Still, I got the mysterious first entry labeled as unused. I read in an installation tutorial that it is for boot sectors. But for this PC, where can we find those 62 sectors that seems to be required by FreeBSD? Maybe I have to install FreeBSD FIRST (before other OSs) to make sure FreeBSD can use the first 62 sectors. I try to find the start sector of the DOS partition to see if there is any conflict, but Partition Magic has no such information for the first active DOS partition (I can get similar information on other partitions). Anyway, I install FreeBSD on the last partition "successfully" and reboot. The System Commander does find the FreeBSD partition. But when I try to boot from it. It says "read error" and the system halts. Any idea? Thanks for you help.

You'd be a whole lot better off not doing so, though. If you're on the net, you should be using DNS.

What I've been seeing with Vinum is that it loses about 2-5% performance on concatenated volumes, and gains up to 45% on a two-way striped volume. My tests weren't primarily for performance, and they included a lot of debug aids, so a well-tuned Vinum system would probably be pretty transparent. I'd guess that Sun's tools are pretty close to that. There's no magic involved. > At the moment, I'm not interested in running these drives in pure > striping mode.

I posted this question two days ago but didn't get many responses to the problem so I concluded that maybe I was not specific enough so I am reposting with more specifics.... I am trying to compile and make the new pine installation Pine4.10. I am compiling on a box that has FreeBSD 2.2.7 The pine installation program does not use a Makefile like normal BSD apps instead it uses a `build` script that collects information from a series of makefiles. I cannot compile this program successfully. because I have DES support on my box I require the `-lcrypt` flag to be included in the installation to get past the error that leaving out such a flag generates (i.e. `unrecognized symbol `_crypt` found at line 163) Where do I specify this flag? Where do I specify my compiler type? Thanks Sasha -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- GCM/CS/CC/GO d--- s: a--- C+++(++++) ULB+++(++++) P+ L++(+++) E--- W+(++) N+ O K---- W---- O M-- V PS! PE!

When I took over the position I was not left with any documentation on how to manage the system, nor do I have any unix experience. I have urgent need of answeres to the following 3 questions. 1) How do I change an existing users password? 2) How do I delete old accounts no longer required? 3) My account name does not have SU access, I am presently using the old administrators login. How do I promote myself to super user. Many thanks in advance.

Anyway, I shutdown and brought the system up single user, mounted all the filesystems and the 2nd CD, started /stand/sysinstall, and selected FIXIT but at the option screen (CD, floppy, holographic shell) none of the options worked. When I selected any of them all that happened was that the HD LED flashed. That was it. Nothing. I got round the problem by cp'ing ``passwd'' and ``master.passwd'' from the CD to /etc and running ``pwd_mkdb'', then ``vipw'' to add the other users, but why didn't FIXIT work?

I do a lot of network troubleshooting at work, for which I use FreeBSD. However I alos need to be able to run Win95 and NT. Thanks to some kind help, I figured out that I can riple boot my machine! However I did not follow the procedure outlined by my mentor on this, so I did not wind up with exaclty what I had in mind. I thinsk I can get a better solution than I have, if I can tweak booteasy a bit. First, what I have down is take a machine, whch was delveire with Win95 installed in a slice consisting of the first 2Gigs of the *G drive. I then installed FreeBSD onot a 2G slice (the 2nd on the drive). I used the sysinstall program to set up booteasy. This worked fine. Then I wne back inot sysintall and partitoned the remaining 4G inot 2 2Gig slcies. I then formated the last 2G slice as FAT16, so that all teh OS'es could read/write there. About this time booteasy started offering me F1 -> F4, with F2 being FreebSD, and all others being listed as DOS. Needles to say choosing F3 or F4 did not achieve much :-) Then I booted off the NT install CD. It saw all 4 partiosns. I told it to install NT into the 3rd slice. It worked for a while an wanted to reboot. When I rebooted, the machine locked up. However eventuall I slected F1 from booteasy (the Win95 choice, remeber), and the NT bootloader flashed by. Ifinished the NT install. Now choosing F1 gets me to teh nT bootloader where I can choose NT or Win95. Never being one to leave well enough alone, I would like to try to improve things abit. Can I eihter convince bootesay to boot NT as F3 and remove the F4 choice from booteasy. Or get teh BT loader to come up nstead of booteasy, _and_ ofer all three choices? Also can anyone sugest a way to get the 4th slice to be MSDOS bootable? I have not been able to make that ork, at all. Thanks for any and all advice on this. Pointers to booteasy docs, also appreciated. -- Stan Brown stanb@netcom.com 843-745-3154 Westvaco Charleston SC. -- Windows 98: n. useless extension to a minor patch release for 32-bit extensions and a graphical shell for a 16-bit patch to an 8-bit operating system originally coded for a 4-bit microprocessor, written by a 2-bit company that can't stand for 1 bit of competition. - (c) 1999 Stan Brown.

You can't fix them with fsck. If Microsoft supplies any tools for file recovery, use them under a Microsoft platform. If it's a UFS partition, it looks like you're in bad shape. Try an alternate superblock; there's usually one at offset 32: # fsck -b32 -n /dev/wd1s1 Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

The starfighter is expensive enough that you'll probably be reluctant to swap it out. If it was one of the no-name i740 boards, I'd suggest passing it to a friend who is fixated on windows, and grabbing something X friendly.

Having just installed this port myself, and run into a similar situation, I suspect that there's a missmatch between the version of MySQL you have installed and the version that the port is expecting. I'd try and locate the MySQL libraries (/usr/local/lib?) and see versions of libmysqlclient.?????? you have. If there's something very close, a symlink would be worth trying, as an experiment.

I changed the size of a dos/win partition. In doing so, I went from one fat size to another. Ie from fat32 to fat16. Good ol partition magic left a shim in place to handle things. To me that felt like the surgeon leaving a scalpel in after the surgery was over. I cried foul, used ghost to back up the data on the disk, wiped the partition table clean, and started from scratch. (And put PM on my sh*tlist.) What reasons could there be for an unexplaned partition at the beginning of the disk? Is it a COMPAQ system? If so is it a "BIOS" partition? Is it a diagnostic partition? (If it is, juggle the entries, and be ready to put it back when you need it.) Maybe its EZ-Drive or something similar? Is DOS picky about where it puts its first cylinder?? (The following is for peer review. Please correct me where I'm wrong.) There is absolutely *nothing* magic about the partition table. There aren't four little registers for the values to go in, its just a convention. (A PC convention?) I had a laptop for quite a while with one partition reserved, and I just moved it out of the way. In other words, I used a DOS based partition table editor, saved a copy of the partition table, removed the diagnostic partition, and then moved the rest of the entries up one. IE: 1. Save a copy of the partition table to somewhere safe, like a floppy. 2. Save a copy of the partition table editor to the floppy. 3. Make sure you've done 1&2. 4. Move partition entry 2 to entry 1. 5. Move partition entry 3 to entry 2. 6. Move partition entry 4 to entry 3. 7. Blank partition entry 4. Now, you have a spot to put another entry. Need more than 4 entries on one disk? Something Like: Dos/W95 NT4 FreeBSD Linux BeOS One option is to setup as normal: Dos6.22/W95 (not fat32) NT4 (use some space on the W95 area + NTFS) FreeBSD Boot DOS, Save a copy of the partition table; call it FreeBSD.par Temporarily grow the NT partition to include the FreeBSD area. Zero out the FreeBSD partition entry. Install Linux in an area on the disk after the FreeBSD area. (The NT area acts as a placeholder.) Boot DOS, Reduce the NT partition to its correct size. Save a copy of the partition table on W95 partition; call it Linux.par Temporarily grow the NT partition to include the Linux area as well. Zero out the Linux partition entry. Install BeOS in an area on the disk after the Linux area. (The NT area acts as a placeholder.) Boot DOS, Reduce the NT partition to its correct size. Save a copy of the partition table on the W95 partition; call it BeOS.par Ok now what? Leave the DOS/W95/NT4 boot loader alone. Use the config.sys options of DOS to run the non flavored fdisk utility and load the partition table back on depending on which OS you want to run. Once the partition is loaded, run FBSDBOOT or its equivalent to bring the kernel of your choice up. Before anyone begins larting me, I just wanted to make the point that its not absolutely necessary to spring for "system commander" if you don't mind getting a little grubby.

You probably have a dead lock file in your /var/mail directory (I think). I've looked through the code, but the exact name of the file doesn't jump out at me.

(First off, I don't have a directory called /usr/src/usr.sbin/config, but I assume you mean wherever I have the source code - in my case, /usr/src/3.0-STABLE/usr.sbin/config.) The error message when I type "/usr/sbin/config [kernel]" says, "WARNING: version of config(8) does not match kernel! Config version = 300009, version required = 300007". I'm guessing this means that perhaps config is okay, but the kernel version is too old? Does this make sense? How would I fix this?

I like not having to fsck 58GB of disk space, but if the server is faster and more reliable with FreeBSD 3.0 + vinum RAID-5 + softupates (so that there is a lower likelihood of having a problem that caused the machine to crash), then I might be willing to give up a fsck-less filesystem. >> the DiskSuite tools let me grow the filesystem while it's online >> (and it doesn't have to be blown away and re-newfs'ed), > >That's in the pipeline, but it's not there yet.

They were spirts (they might be good and kindly, or perhaps nasty and bad) which typically watched over a small area (maybe a spring, or a particular field near the woods), and one would appease them by making offerings in a traditional spot. This is thought by many to be one of the origins of early pan-European "pantheism" (or the belief in many deities), although daemons were merely spirts and not true deities.

You can disable loading sendmail as a daemon (boot-time) in /etc/rc.conf. Using sendmail to send a message is similar to using mail; for example type "sendmail john@smith.com" and type in your message terminated by a dot on an otherwise empty line. Piping/redirection of course works. "man sendmail" for details on command-line arguments. --- Stefano Riva Software Engineer - Systems Administrator Informazioni Editoriali I.E.

But you can fix it. Look at patches/patch-aa. In it you will see, if you look closely, two diffs for the configure file. (It looks like it was added twice to the patch file). Delete lines 72-141. IIRC, one of the patches for admin/ltconfig.orig is in place in the source code. And unless you are running -CURRENT (4.0), you can delete those patches as well. I had to do a make clean, and then make again, each time I deleted something. But it compiles fine from there on out. --- Patrick S.

I think there's a misunderstanding, here... I've understood your machine is a 2.2.8-STABLE box and you don't want to run sendmail as a daemon, but you want to send mail with sendmail ran from the command line. Is it correct? If so, just do it. Don't load sendmail as a daemon by specifying NO in /etc/rc.conf. Use sendmail just like mail, from the command line. Where and when do you get that connection refused error?

Since no one else seems to have answered this (at least publicly), the answer is security. Imagine, for example, mounting CD-ROM with an suid root program on it. You could hack around this problem (as a starting point, note that the mount command already has nosuid and noexec options), but it's simpler to just control access to the device node itself.

You should visit the FreeBSD home pages (http://www.freebsd.org) Then, click on "release information" - and look at the "Release Notes" for the particular version of FreeBSD you're interested in installing (I'm happy with 3.0, but you may want to be more conservative and try 2.2.8.) The Release Notes for the particular version present you with a rather lengthy hardware compatibility list. The short answers are: 1) Don't mess with a WinModem of any kind - it only works under windows. 2) Just about any hard drive, SCSI, IDE, etc... 3) FreeBSD uses just about any video card - but X11 is the defination of graphics. So, to choose a nice video card for X11, see http://www.xfree86.org/ My typical answer to questions like this is: First, decide how much money you want to spend. Buy the computer that costs that much. - Dave Rivers - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Feb 11 06:01:43 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA19501 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 11 Feb 1999 06:01:43 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from relay.stylo.it (relay.stylo.it [193.76.98.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA19494 for ; Thu, 11 Feb 1999 06:01:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ATuretta@stylo.it) Received: from styloserver.stylo.it (styloserver.stylo.it [193.76.98.3]) by relay.stylo.it (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id PAA18159; Thu, 11 Feb 1999 15:01:21 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from ATuretta@stylo.it) Received: by styloserver.stylo.it with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2232.9) id <1R4SVNLG>; Thu, 11 Feb 1999 14:59:42 +0100 Message-ID: <210F5CDE0707D211B4BD00062905C842069DDB@styloserver.stylo.it> From: Angelo Turetta To: "'freebsd-questions'" Cc: "'Brian Somers'" Subject: ppp(8) hanging up under heavy load.

This problem has been plagueing me for two years, and now I try asking for some hints. I have a 486 box, serving dialin connections through 4 USR 28800 modems by mean of a Stallion EasyIO/8 multiport serial board. The box is running 2.2-STABLE (CVSUP-ed around 2.2.6 Release.) It consistently drops the line when the link is heavily used for more than a couple of minutes (typically FTP transfers & SMTP messages larger than some hundreds KB) The problem is not solved even with the latest ppp(8) (the one from RELENG_3), so I think ppp itself is not the primary culprit. What's most strange, when the link drops, the ppp process (started with -direct by getty) doesn't log any of the normal 'Phase' messages (connection statistics, carrier lost and so on.) For your information, the PC is running routed, and has an ETInc board driving a 128 Kbps FR link (that gives me no problems). In my ppp.conf I've setup CHAP authentication, and the local end of the link is being given the same IP address of the ethernet card, while the remote end gets an address defined in ppp.secret. Do you have any tip for what should I do/check to get rid of this problem. (I'm already planning an HW/OS upgrade of the box) Angelo Turetta.

Also what would result from subsequent system upgrades using cvsup, with delete option allowed, would the cvsup NUKE my enteries, if so I can create a restoration shell script mechanism, any data on this topic is highly appreciated.

I bought 4 CDs from Walnut Creek. Having read some of the followups, I am still confused with the unexplained first partition which is 62 sectors (its Ptype is 6 and labeled as "unused"). Even if I declare ALL disk space to FreeBSD on a machine, that partition still occurs. I hope someone can clarify this for us all. What on earth is its purpose?

In the process we are trying to locate a Network Interface Card that is supported by freebsd. The server is completely running EISA and so our choices have been limited. On your list there is a card from 3com listed, 3C595 Etherlink III , but when I look for it at 3com's www it comes up with a list of compatible cards and no reference to this particular card. What I am asking is, on the compatibility list there is the 3c592 and 3c597 card that are EISA, are they compatible with freebsd? If so can I use multiple cards in the same server?

What on earth is its purpose? As I said in an earlier post, it is the Master Boot Record & Partition Table area of the disk. FreeBSD (and other *nixes) show much more detail (i.e. at a lower level) than DOS/Win apps (e.g. PM). The Master Boot Record and Partiton Table has to live somewhere on the disk and it is in the first few (63) sectors. PM and DOS fdisk don't bother showing this system area (since the user can't do anything with it, except trash it), FreeBSD, OTOH, shows it, perhaps confusingly, as an unused "partition". Ignore it, mine's the same. You'll never get rid of it.

I would recommend you the following way of configuring PNP devices: Put the following lines into /boot/boot.conf: load kernel load -t userconfig_script /kernel.config autoboot Of course, you need only the second line if you already have a boot.conf filled with some commands. Put all the configuration commands you need into /kernel.config in the same way you type them when configuring the kernel. Here is my /kernel.config, for instance: pnp 1 0 os enable port0 0x220 port1 0x330 port2 0x388 drq0 3 drq1 5 irq0 5 pnp 1 1 os enable port0 0x200 drq0 4 drq1 4 pnp 1 2 os enable port0 0x620 port1 0xA20 port2 0xE20 drq0 4 drq1 4 quit And here we are! Notice that you don't even depend on kernel recompilation if you use this technique. -- /Voland Vadim Belman E-mail: voland@plab.ku.dk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Feb 11 08:50:49 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA11514 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 11 Feb 1999 08:50:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mailhost.det.ameritech.net (mpdr0.detroit.mi.ameritech.net [206.141.239.206]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA11495 for ; Thu, 11 Feb 1999 08:50:46 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jerry@reillyplating.com) Received: from reillyplating.com ([209.18.31.101]) by mailhost.det.ameritech.net (InterMail v03.02.07 118 124) with SMTP id <19990211174637.JLT21951@reillyplating.com> for ; Thu, 11 Feb 1999 11:46:37 -0600 Received: from reillyplating.com (jerry.lan [10.0.0.9]) by reillyplating.com (8.8.8/8.8.5) with ESMTP id LAA11908 for ; Thu, 11 Feb 1999 11:50:28 -0500 (EST) Message-ID: <36C30A3B.30A9EC5F@reillyplating.com> Date: Thu, 11 Feb 1999 11:50:03 -0500 From: Jerry Bell X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (WinNT; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Adding a pnp device id Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Where would I look to add a pnp id number for a modem that is not being detected during the pnp device probe at boot?

I installed Apache 1.3 through the ports collection in the installation gui. Everything went great, no problems... When the machine, rebooted and came up, there was an error right before the login. It said something like cannot open httpd.conf in /usr/local/etc/apache. So, i went to that dir and found out that the file it was looking for did not exist, but there was a httpd.conf.default file. So, I thought I could just copy httpd.conf.default to httpd.conf, and everything would be ok. So, I rebooted and the machine came up again, except there was a new error right before the login instead of the other error. The error said something to the effect of syntax error on line 26 or 27, cannot load module mod_mime_magic.so into server module: undefined symbol ap_make_sub_pool. I thought these ports were supposed to be default configure for FreeBSD 3.0 when installed, or do I need to configure something? Any thoughts? Suggestions? Help.. Thanx in advance...

If I can find a solution (no budget) then I can free that precious 1G occupied by NT 4.0 and Office97. The current solution uses a template or something in Word. The operator types the appropriate label in whatever box(s). Copy/paste to duplicate. Then runs the sheet thru the printer. Don't always print full sheets so sometimes a sheet goes thru the printer several times before its filled. The point is to neatly get lots of info on a sticker rather than write it sloppily by hand. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nebula.tbe.com ======================================================================== Whom computers would destroy, they must first drive mad.

May I ask what your ppp.conf for bell atlantic looks like (sans passwords of course)? I have the proper username and password and have PAP enabled, but when I dial all I get is... ppp ON cartman>dial banet ppp ON cartman> (various connection noises) Ppp ON cartman> ppp ON cartman> (*click* it disconnects) I take it from the man page that this means it's not authenticating properly. The problem is that I'm POSITIVE I have the proper username and password (and the proper case). These have been verified. Any ideas anyone? -Chris > -----Original Message----- > From: Donald R.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm trying to build ipfilter and I'm running into a few build problems. Here are the two courses I've tried without success, and the results. All this is on a machine that was successfully cvsupped (from cvsup4.freebsd.org)/build world on February 10th running full elf. I'm about 99% sure the kernel is configured correctly to support ipfilter. 1. Using /usr/src/contrib/ipfilter, and following the directions in INST.FreeBSD-2.2. Results are below marked TRY 1. There is no BSD subdirectory here, which appears to be a problem. I've also tried rebuilding this directory from scratch by ftp'ing it from ftp.freebsd.org. Same results. 2. Using ip-fil3.2.10.tar.gz downloaded from the main ipfilter site. Again following INST.FreeBSD-2.2. Results are below marked TRY 2. This one is a bit beyond me. If anyone out there can shed some light on this or point to a method for installing ipfilter that works, it would be greatly appreciated. -------------- TRY 1 ------------------- bash-2.02# make freebsd22 IPFILKERN=SCIMITAR-IPFILTER if [ ! -d netinet -o ! -f netinet/done ] ; then mkdir -p netinet; (cd netinet; ln -s ../*.h .; ln -s ../ip_ftp_pxy.c .); (cd netinet; ln -s ../ipsend/tcpip.h tcpip.h); touch netinet/done; fi make setup "TARGOS=BSD" "CPUDIR=`uname -s|sed -e 's@/@@g'`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`" if [ ! -d BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386 ] ; then mkdir BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386; fi mkdir: BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386: No such file or directory *** Error code 1 (ignored) rm -f BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386/Makefile BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386/Makefile.ipsend ln -s ../Makefile BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386/Makefile ln: BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386/Makefile: No such file or directory *** Error code 1 (ignored) ln -s ../Makefile.ipsend BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386/Makefile.ipsend ln: BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386/Makefile.ipsend: No such file or directory *** Error code 1 (ignored) rm -f BSD/`uname -s|sed -e 's@/@@g'`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`/ioconf.h ln: BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386: No such file or directory *** Error code 1 Stop. -------------- TRY 2 ------------------- bash-2.02# make freebsd22 IPFILKERN=SCIMITAR-IPFILTER if [ ! -f netinet/done ] ; then (cd netinet; ln -s ../*.h .; ln -s ../ip_ftp_pxy.c .); (cd netinet; ln -s ../ipsend/tcpip.h tcpip.h); touch netinet/done; fi make setup "TARGOS=BSD" "CPUDIR=`uname -s|sed -e 's@/@@g'`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`" if [ ! -d BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386 ] ; then mkdir BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386; fi rm -f BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386/Makefile BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386/Makefile.ipsend ln -s ../Makefile BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386/Makefile ln -s ../Makefile.ipsend BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386/Makefile.ipsend rm -f BSD/`uname -s|sed -e 's@/@@g'`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`/ioconf.h make freebsd if [ ! -f netinet/done ] ; then (cd netinet; ln -s ../*.h .; ln -s ../ip_ftp_pxy.c .); (cd netinet; ln -s ../ipsend/tcpip.h tcpip.h); touch netinet/done; fi make setup "TARGOS=BSD" "CPUDIR=`uname -s|sed -e 's@/@@g'`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`" if [ ! -d BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386 ] ; then mkdir BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386; fi rm -f BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386/Makefile BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386/Makefile.ipsend ln -s ../Makefile BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386/Makefile ln -s ../Makefile.ipsend BSD/FreeBSD-3.1-BETA-i386/Makefile.ipsend (cd BSD/`uname -s|sed -e 's@/@@g'`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`; make build TOP=../..

If you use >Booteasy or similar it may not work afterwards. Yes. That's exactly the concern I was talking about (although I didn't say it nearly so eloquently :)). Actually, what I have is 2 physical hard drives, a primary and a secondary. They pretty much are mirror images of one another and they are both bootable. The idea is that in the event of disaster affecting the primary drive, I can always just boot the secondary drive. Both drives contain a small dos partition. I'm not near the box to take a look right now; but, it's my recollection that I have things set up so that I can boot either FreeBSD or DOS on either drive (i.e., 4 boot choices). It turns out that the corrputed DOS partition is on the secondary drive. So, now that I've better explained the situation, what would you suggest in terms of getting that DOS partition repaired? I don't care at all about the data on it. Once it's repaired, I'll just copy the contents of the DOS partition on the primary drive to it. As you point out, what I don't want to do is mess up the way things boot. Any thoughts? Thanks for the input. >HTH. ??? ... doug _____________________________________________________________________ Doug Jolley mailto://doug@footech.com http://www.footech.com Don't bogart that file, my friend.

Here is a snippet from the handbook: (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook61.html) options INET Networking support. Leave it in even if you do not plan to be connected to a network. Most programs require at least loopback networking (i.e. making network connections within your PC) so this is essentially mandatory.

I don't know if you're in that service area (they serve only the 703, 202, and 301 area codes), but even though I am now over in Belgium, my virtual domain continues to be hosted with them. For a while, they were also the home of the dc.sage local affiliate of the Systems Administrators Guild (until such time as we put enough money together to get our own machine, and we wanted to have it in a location where we could physically lay hands on it).

It can be done. But I'm not sure what the problem is in your case. I suggest two things: 1 - have a look at my site and see if what is there helps you. Start at http://www.freebsddiary.com/freebsd/topics.htm#ipfilter I suggest you start with "IP Filter - second time around" as it contains the complete install instructions. I have had problem with an install of ipfilter where the files where the FreeBSD were corrupted by the install process. But that was my fault and I don't see those symptoms for your case. NOTE: my install was for 2.2.* and not for 3.* as you are trying. Check your kernel options for IP Filter and make sure the kernel is up to date. 2 - Post a message to the ipfilter mailing list if you can't resolve it.

They could write something generic and they didn't have to write a printer driver for every conceivable printer on the market. The drivers all came with Windows or were supplied by the printer manufacturer. An easy way to create a FreeBSD program would be to setup a couple of labels in Word but print them to a file instead of sending the lables to the printer. You have your template for printing to your printer using FreeBSD. You could probably use sed to do the editing with a simple script.

I think there was a vulnerabiltiy found with the phf script supplied with Apache versions 1.0.3 and earlier. "test-cgi" is a script supplied in current Apache distributions. It supplies a dump of the CGI environment. I think the default install is perm 644, and yields the error message shown above when referenced until you set permissions to 755. I don't know about "handler". Looks like it just doesn't exist on your system. It looks kind of like someone is trying to probe your web server.

Haven't tried that lately but in the past it wasn't unusual for Word to generate a 700K/page Postscript file.

(Actually, after running make world I got a file called GENERICupgrade, and used that... does that matter?)

Any book on UNIX C and C++ should be applicable. Our compiler is gcc (the GNU C Compiler), so books referring to that compiler would be best. "Practical C Programming" and "Practical C++ Programming" from O'Reilly, both by Steve Oualline, seem reasonable books. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

And, sorry to sound even A "make world" doesn't update the kernel sources. It's only used to compile & install the O/S and utilities. As was suggested you need to use either CVSup or CTM to update your sources (This also updates the kernel sources). Since you are using CTM, check ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD and download any newer CTM deltas that are available. > slower than usual, but... what are the kernel sources?

Thanks, > The kernel sources are the entire /usr/src/sys tree (in your case /usr/src/3.0-STABLE/sys) and are used to compile the "/kernel" program, that is need to run your system. It doesn't matter if you use GENERIC or GENERICupgrade to configure the kernel build. I usually, make a copy of the GENERIC*, and remove (usually comment out) the devices that I don't need.

Any thoughts? > I'm not sure. As I said I don't use Booteasy so I don't know how it works. I take it you can still boot FreeBSD on the second drive?. If so then you know Booteasy, which I think has to be on both drives, is OK. When you say the DOS partition on the second drive is corrupted what exactly do you mean?. Have you tried booting DOS on the first drive and running CHKDSK or SCANDISK on the DOS partition on the second drive? If not you could try this, it may be able to fix it. I suspect Booteasy lives in the MBR, so you could probably try formatting the DOS partition on the second drive WITHOUT ``/s''! and then copying the files from the first drive (the _only_ system files you need are IO.SYS, MSDOS.SYS, & COMMAND.COM). You really need someone who uses Booteasy on 2 drives to help you here. Is there anyone reading this who can help? > Thanks for the input. > > >HTH. > > ???

I will really appreciate if someone can recommend a good ISP that supports most unix variants -- I run Linux, Solaris and FreeBSD at home. I have only been able to get Linux to connect but I need to have more than one OS with access to the internet from my home. I would also like to have a static IP address since I have a Domain Name which i have not been able to use since i secured it about a year ago. So please if you know of any reliable ISP in the 510 area code please let me know. I will give anything (including my wallet) to have my home PC connected to the internet using FreeBSD.

Alternatively, just build the libraries it needs (libos.a and libap.a), "make libos.a libap.a" should do it from somewhere in the Apache tree, don't ask where though.

I'm not jdp though, so I may be wrong :) In that case it probably isn't a good idea, especially since it'll surely thrash the hell out of the system while its putting tags in for changes that'll be wiped on the next cvsup. I think my next step is to cvsup the bloody repository, take a guess at a timestamp, and iterate through 'cvs diff' until nothing comes out. Unless someone has a better idea.... maybe ident through my current source tree to find the latest date/time?

I have a copy of the original "Installing and Running" and have been holding out on the "Complete FreeBSD" until the new edition comes along. (without man pages) The existence of this unauthorized file raises two questions: 1) Does the book come with a CD and text, ps, or HTML versions? 2) If not, where did this unauthorized version come from? It sure would be nice to have in HTML or text format. You could put it on a laptop and take it everywhere you go without violating carry-on or luggage restrictions.

They're often not quite compatible, and we hear of an above-average number of problems with them. It would be a good idea to try booting a boot floppy and seeing what it finds.

The book comes either with or without a CD set. The first CD includes an ASCII version of the book. To quote the introduction: One thing you should note, though: this book is copyright. By buying the CD-ROM, you have a license to use it for your own personal use. You may not give it to other people, or use the text in other documents without the prior written approval of Walnut Creek CDROM. > It sure would be nice to have in HTML or text format.

Well, in fact the errata would probably be fixed with a new version. But that's the reason for the text version: for people who already have the book, it's convenient to search. Parts of it are *very* difficult to read. For example, this is what it makes of the diagram on page 310: The reference network _____________________ One of the problems in talking about networks is that there are so many different kinds of network connection. To simplify things, this book bases on one of the most frequent environments: a number of computers connected together by an Ethernet LAN with a single gateway to the Internet.

What a bummer. Linux/PowerPC versions are supposed to be shipping already. I backordered my FreeBSD Applixware back in July or August when November 1998 was the published ship date.

Most of this stuff is outside Vinum. Some of it is there, and I'm trying to find a way to measure Vinum throughput (average I/O time and standard deviation, for example, per Vinum object). >> What I've been seeing with Vinum is that it loses about 2-5% >> performance on concatenated volumes, and gains up to 45% on a two-way >> striped volume. > > That's concatenated and striped, but what about RAID-5? Assume the same as striped for reading RAID-5. Writing is approximately 60% of the speed of reading, unless a drive dies, in which case it gets a little faster. But I'm not going to publish any ``exact'' numbers now, because they're not as exact as they look.

I've never had such troubles. In fact, I've gotten a couple of gratuitous copies when that happened. Did you e-mail them, or call them? When I had the same thing happen to me (only once since 386bsd came out, for version 2.1.5 I believe), I called them on the telephone and the guy credited my account right then-and-there & told me to keep the extra copy. Pretty good service, if you ask me... But, to answer your question - yes, there is another company that puts out a FreeBSD CD... it might be CheapBytes... I can't really remember. I'd encourage you to call Walnut Creek CDROM & explain; I'd bet things get better real quick. - Dave Rivers - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Feb 11 18:45:42 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA02743 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Thu, 11 Feb 1999 18:45:42 -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 SAA02724 for ; Thu, 11 Feb 1999 18:45:38 -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 NAA18074; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 13:15:34 +1030 (CST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.3/8.9.0) id NAA00746; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 13:15:33 +1030 (CST) Message-ID: <19990212131531.J491@lemis.com> Date: Fri, 12 Feb 1999 13:15:31 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: skruzich , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Sources for freebsd References: <36C39411.1979147@stc.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93.2i In-Reply-To: <36C39411.1979147@stc.net>; from skruzich on Thu, Feb 11, 1999 at 09:38:09PM -0500 WWW-Home-Page: http://www.lemis.com/~grog Organization: LEMIS, PO Box 460, Echunga SA 5153, Australia Phone: +61-8-8388-8286 Fax: +61-8-8388-8725 Mobile: +61-41-739-7062 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG [Format recovered at freebie.lemis.com] On Thursday, 11 February 1999 at 21:38:09 -0500, skruzich wrote: > Is there another company that puts freebsd on cd other than > cdrom.com.

That's not typical of Walnut Creek. We consider Walnut Creek to be the good guys. How long has it been? Have you called them up? There are other CD distributions, but they're not as good.

Have you called them? Walnut Creek is one of the best companies I have ever dealt with on-line. I moved a while back and I kinda screwed up changeing my address at Canada Post.

I have installed FreeBSD v. 2.2.6. on my system. I have the 4 CD set from Walnut Creek and installed it from a DOS partition. When I try to install from CD-ROM (changing the install media to CD) I get an error that says "This looks more like an audio CD than a FreeBSD release.

The 'login' command is what typically is producing the motd (I believe). If we look at the source in my /usr/src/usr.bin/login/login.c, void motd(motdfile) char *motdfile; { int fd, nchars; sig_t oldint; char tbuf[256]; if ((fd = open(motdfile, O_RDONLY, 0)) < 0) return; motdinterrupt = 0; oldint = signal(SIGINT, sigint); while ((nchars = read(fd, tbuf, sizeof(tbuf))) > 0 && !motdinterrupt) (void)write(fileno(stdout), tbuf, nchars); (void)signal(SIGINT, oldint); (void)close(fd); } We see that the login command is spitting backout whatever is in the motd verbatim. You could hack the login command if you are ambitious. :) However, making changes to the motd automatically at startup or periodically is quite possible. The default setup of FreeBSD does some processing of its own on motd in /etc/rc.local and if, for some reason, you wanted to automatically change or rotate them, cron could be used. -- Crist J.

Is there a LINT script to keep the /distfiles coincide with the New updated /ports, and at least move the old stuff into a /distfiles/old directory so I can deal with them, may be delete or move to ftp server. If no such magic LINT exists what do I need to know to create one, I mean the shell script should get a list of current distfiles, I think from /ports/INDEX then compares each file in /distfiles with INDEX, if doesnot belonng to it move it to /old, but such script must keep in mind that some ports keep their files in subdirectories of /distfiles. Help please. Thanks.

Put the following line in your kernel configuration file: options EISA_SLOTS=12 ...then rebuild and install it. If you haven't already built a custom kernel, please look at the handbook (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook50.html) on how to do it. It's always a very good idea. --- Stefano Riva Software Engineer - Systems Administrator Informazioni Editoriali I.E.

It's not clear to me if you're looking for something that just acts like a smart typewriter with standard courier output or if you're looking for typeset quality (proportional fonts, filling, justification, etc). If it's the former, it's a trivial shell script of the kind you might give a sysadmin job applicant to see if s/he knew which way was up. If the latter, it might involve learning PostScript or groff or TeX -- but it's also trivial with any of these tools. Generally speaking, these things are so trivial that nobody does them in a sufficiently general way to be really useful to another site, which means that everybody rolls their own idea of the solution. -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Feb 12 05:56:17 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id FAA13548 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 05:56:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id FAA13519 for ; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 05:56:11 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 29301 invoked by uid 1001); 12 Feb 1999 13:47:27 -0000 Message-ID: <19990212134727.29300.qmail@alpha.comkey.com.au> X-Posted-By: GBA-Post 1.04 06-Feb-1999 X-PGP-Fingerprint: 5A91 6942 8CEA 9DAB B95B C249 1CE1 493B 2B5A CE30 Date: Fri, 12 Feb 1999 23:47:27 +1000 From: Greg Black To: Ersin Miman Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Where can I find C/C++ Tutorial for FreeBSD?

To start with, stick to Standard C and you'll be fine. When you've got the hang of that, read the man pages in sections 2 and 3 to see what is available under FreeBSD. For sample code, read the FreeBSD sources. Start with easy things like cat(1) and gradually work up to more complex programs like ls(1). Then have a look at using sockets and X-Windows, and you'll be on your way. There are some tutorials for some of the more complex stuff in /usr/share/doc. If you're looking for a simple environment to write, compile, test and debug your programs, consider installing and learning to use Emacs as your editor. It has excellent support for this. As for C++, don't bother. It will make you go blind and serves no useful purpose other than to sell lots of useless books, magazines, training courses, debuggers, and chairs for all the extra programmers that are needed to write simple software in complex ways. You may find a few people who disagree with the opinions in the two paragraphs before this one.

Debian2.0,Slackware3.6,FreeBSD3.0,NetBSD-1.32 seem to be doing the same thing during installation. they're all saying "No SCSI attached!!!" Why is it that only Redhat5.2 was able to see my SCSI drive during installation? All the other installers gave me one choice only --/dev/hda1 (Linux via Debian & Slackware) or /dev/wd0 (*BSD)-- or nothing at all if the UDMA drive was unplugged. It's been a few days, but I think I had to trick Redhat also, by making the bios select scsi first and removing the ribbon from the IDE drive. Anyway SCSI first returns 0, then the SCSI Drive and Card appear to do some sort of download of driver info, so that the Redhat installer eventually sees the SCSI drive. Looks like Redhat has a longer probe time than the other installers. So what should I do? I was really surprised about Debian since I've had 2.0 running on a m68k macintosh for quite a while with SCSI disk chains. Tho this one is a U2W scsi card with matching transfer speed IBM drive. These other installers appear to probe the system without looking at a BIOS selection, which for my box can switch preferences between IDE and SCSI, which looks similar to load order choice for floppy, CDROM, and C drive, etc... So is the only way to get these other OSes up is to unplug PnP settings for the SCSI card? Or is there some other tweak to solve this? By the way, only Redhat5.2 had a working fips20, fdisk programs for FAT32 partitions. Changed the unused paritions to FAT16, then tried them with Linux native, but no go with that either. Any help is appreciated!

The 2940UW and 2940U work with NetBSD; however, I believe the 2940U2W is based on a new controller chip which is not yet supported by NetBSD; as a result, I'd expect you to see some sort of "pci?: mumble foo not configured" message in the autoconf output. I *thought* that chip was supported by FreeBSD 3.0, but since it didn't work clearly I was confused. - Bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Feb 12 06:34:12 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA18480 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 06:34:12 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mortar.carlson.com (mortar.carlson.com [208.240.12.98]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA18468 for ; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 06:34:10 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from veldy@visi.com) Received: from mortar.carlson.com (root@localhost) by mortar.carlson.com with ESMTP id IAA17944 for ; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 08:33:36 -0600 (CST) Received: from w142844 ([172.25.99.35]) by mortar.carlson.com with SMTP id IAA17940 for ; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 08:33:36 -0600 (CST) Message-ID: <015601be5694$bfababc0$236319ac@w142844.carlson.com> From: "Thomas T.

The 2940UW and 2940U work with NetBSD; however, I believe the 2940U2W is based on a new controller chip which is not yet supported by NetBSD; as a result, I'd expect you to see some sort of "pci?: mumble foo not configured" message in the autoconf output. I *thought* that chip was supported by FreeBSD 3.0, but since it didn't work clearly I was confused. - Bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Feb 12 06:38:51 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id GAA19017 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 06:38:51 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from voyager.fisicc-ufm.edu (pm8b-s6.guate.net [200.12.60.107]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id GAA19006 for ; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 06:38:46 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from obonilla@voyager.fisicc-ufm.edu) Received: (from obonilla@localhost) by voyager.fisicc-ufm.edu (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA12349; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 08:42:24 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from obonilla) Date: Fri, 12 Feb 1999 08:42:24 -0600 (CST) From: Oscar Bonilla Message-Id: <199902121442.IAA12349@voyager.fisicc-ufm.edu> To: alphaqt@phreaker.net, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Positive Comment In-Reply-To: <36C38084.20495336@phreaker.net> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > Hi, > > This isn't really a question but a comment.

You can use a commercial product like Partition Magic, or you can try the freeware tools like fips. Whichever you choose, make sure to back up everything you consider important! > Another question.

Assuming here that you meant "boot up to FreeBSD" rather than "boot up to Linux", yes you can.

Whoever on -hackers was rude to you should be more polite, but you'd probably admit it would get really old getting messages from people who haven't taken the time to read the mailing lists charters which describe what each list is for. >The version of FreeBSD that I am trying >to install is: > >CD_VERSION = 3.0-19990209-STABLE > >I made the CD myself, by downloading the files under the -STABLE section. >If needed I can provide a listing of the CD. I am constantly amazed that people who know absolutely nothing about freebsd decide to make their own CD. Why would anyone select the most difficult route? Why not install directly over the web, or buy the official CDs from Walnut Creek or CheapBytes? Why would you guys think anyone would want to spend their leisure time helping you when you selected the more difficult route. I'd rather be drinking a beer... Stepping down from my soapbox: You can search the archives and find some info about a web page someone created containing instruction on how to make your own CD and see if you missed any files and such. But I'd still strongly recommend just buying the official CDs. In spite of my raving, welcome to freebsd. Please remember these mailing lists are responded to by volunteers. Not paid people. You are not a customer when you get software for free. Even if you pay for the official CDs, you're expectations as a "customer" is limited to defects in the CDs themselves, not it's actual contents (which is free). By the way, very few people monitoring these lists and responding to your questions are officially releated to freebsd. So keep in mind that whatever responses you get are much the same as you might get if you went to central park and asked a question. There just might be an a-hole there that beats you up because he didn't like your question. That's the downside of a free society... So the moral of this long-winded story is: Don't be dissuaded by a-holes. The world is full of them and this ain't no sanctuary. Steve Friedrich Viva la FreeBSD!!

Our first selection was FreeBSD so I am contacting you, to ask you people what are your requirements for us to be your mirror. Our mirror computer is a Sun Ultra Enterprise 1, if you need more space that what is available we are planning to buy some more space aniway. We really want to be your mirror, and we are capable of it; so if you want us to be your mirrors please reply these E-mail and send what we need to do, to become your mirrors, we will study it and send an aswer if we qualify.

This is what I get: ============================================= % tar -xvf var.tar (uncompresses about 40 files) tar: Skipping to next file header... % The problem is it only extracts about 1% of all the files in the archive, then gives up when it says "Skipping to next file header...".

The OS seems to work well. However, I need to install XFree86 3.3.3.1 if I want a GUI because the earlier versions of XFree86 won't recognize my new video card (A Number Nine Rendition IV). I download the XFree86 port, untar it, run the "configure" script and then attempt a "make". Here's the errors I get during the make: "/usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk", line2: Coult not find /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk line 70: Malformed conditional (${PORTOBJFORMAT} = "aout") line 70: need an operator line 83: if-less endif This is a fresh install of 3.0-RELEASE on a brand new system. The only thing installed are the sources and binaries of the OS, the sources and binaries of the slightly older version of X that came with 3.0-RELEASE, plus the 3.0 upgrade patch. What do I need to do to get the install of XFree86 3.3.3.1 to work?

FreeBSD-3.0-19990208-STABLE was added recently Operating system - 'FreeBSD-3.0-19990208-STABLE' The problem .... Initially i hadn't installed the *ports collection* (HD space concerns) and decided i would install the ports i needed as time went on. When i first attempted to install vnc, it told me it 'couldn't find the make files.' Not even after rebooting. Also when i tried to cd to the directories where the 'make files' reside, /usr/share/mk AND /usrports/Mk the system responded "no such directory" Which now i am told has to be there or the system will NOT boot. In a last ditch effort to to install the 'vnc' port, I thot, "maybe i need something from the ports collection and started downloading it. While downloading the ports collection, a nick on irc said what i was doing shouldn't be necessary. so i aborted the download. And tried the 'make install' from /usr/ports/net/vnc yet again. Now it wants to work! Now that it seems it wants to work, the following is happening; I get the following error when i use the command 'make install' in the /usr/ports/net/vnc ports directory; /usr/bin/tar: archive EOf not on block boundary After searching the questions & Stable maillist archives, i have only found 2 hits with this error stated in them and no public posting of a response.

The equivalent of /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp contains quite a few files. How does one merge such customizations with the installation of a port in FreeBSD? I thought it would be easiest to just use /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp, but then it occurred to me that I might install some port which depends on psgml-emacs20, thus going to the directory then `make install' is going to clobber my site-lisp directory, which is no good. What do you guys do in a similar situation? Of course, similar thoughts apply to other software package, so don't let my mention of Emacs throw you. Thanks, kai -- I like _b_o_t_h kinds of music.

Soft errors are normally read errors that are corrected in hardware/software (by the fact the drive stores more bits than the original 'data' bits (for error checking / recovery) Be careful, your drive could be on it's way out... Or at the very least you might have bad blocks that are 'borderline' readable...

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 Hey Yall... I ran into something wierd today when I was trying to tighten up security in my firewall rules. I wrote these rules in keeping in mind the obvious junk like DNS, TELNET, SSH, etc.... The goal was to lock up as many ports as possible without kinking normal stuff... #$fwcmd add 0556 deny log tcp from any to ${oip} 11 #$fwcmd add 0557 deny log udp from any to ${oip} 11 #$fwcmd add 0558 deny log tcp from any to ${oip} 37 #$fwcmd add 0559 deny log udp from any to ${oip} 37 #$fwcmd add 0660 allow udp from any to ${oip} 123 #$fwcmd add 0660 allow tcp from 192.168.1.2 to ${oip} #$fwcmd add 0660 allow tcp from 206.206.121.11:8080 to ${oip} #$fwcmd add 0660 allow udp from 206.206.121.11:8080 to ${oip} #$fwcmd add 0660 deny log tcp from any to ${oip} 109-1079 #$fwcmd add 0661 deny log udp from any to ${oip} 109-1079 #$fwcmd add 0662 deny log tcp from any to ${oip} 4000-5999 #$fwcmd add 0663 deny log udp from any to ${oip} 4000-5999 #$fwcmd add 0664 deny log tcp from any to ${oip} 6000-49999 #$fwcmd add 0665 deny log udp from any to ${oip} 6000-49999 ok. When I loaded these rules in every windows machine in my domain came up with this error...and obviously could not access the web or anything inc. telnet to other domains: Fatal Exception 0E has occured at somestupidmemadd in VXD MSTCP(01) + 000092F7 can anyone tell me why? also where can I find a list of all ports 1-50000 (not /etc/services)...Does M$loth crap use non standard ports for web connections and stuff? What was really wierd was that I could still access everything fine from my UNIX/FREEBSD machines just not MSWINDOWS crap. does anyone have a list of ports that are not neccessary and can be blocked?

(probably not) #3) is the laptop on the same subnet as the FreeBSD machine? #3a) is the laptop on the same subnet as the rest of the network? (probably not) #4) can you manually connect to a ms machine on your network? e.g. open up explorer and go to \\SAMBA\SHARE (please type something real here). I believe you can't see the other computers on the network because your are #1 on a different subnet and #2 behind the natd box. What both prevent your laptop from seeing the broadcast messages from the master browser, AND prevents the master browser from seeing your computer. I don't believe you can see the FreeBSD machine because, again, you can't see the master browser and if you can't see the master browser you have no idea what computers are on the ms network. I think you may have a way around this but (in all honesty) I need check this out and get back to you. Also, the answer depends on the answers to those questions above. -Chris > -----Original Message----- > From: Russell D.

To have MSNN work you must be on the same segment as the server that you want to connect to, be running Client for Microsoft or Netbeui or both and have no interfering devices (routers,nat,routed,switches,etc.) in the middle. When i say switches I mean ones configed for TCP networks only...I have several switches and I can see MSNN through them fine, but then they are considered Workgroup Switches so they are configured for routing everthing even Microsoft garbage. I might be wrong but this is to the best of my knowledge.

If you install it you'd be able to boot FreeBSD off of the hard drive. It will give you the choice of booting FreeBSD or whatever else is on the drive. > Isn't FreeBSD, like Linux, a UNIX-like operating sys? There are others who can give you a better answer, but Linux is merely a Kernal that is Unix like. FreeBSD is an entire operating system that came from BSD , which for all intents and purposes is UNIX. It's a subtle distiction, but very important.

Problem I am having is that when you disconnect a mouse on an operating machine, you need to reboot before it will work again..normally not a problem however I just installed a $300 multi-cpu switch so I can run one mouse/kb/monitor for 4 of my bsd boxes. It sends a keep-alive signal to simulate an active mouse/kb to each of the inactive cpu's. It works fine except the mouse..the mouse always dies as soon as I switch to a new box, which defeats the purpose. Does anyone know of a fix for this? -- Stephen C. Comoletti Asst.

But if I'm on my own network, it's as fast as typing directly into the console. -- 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 Feb 12 14:41:49 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id OAA17699 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 14:41:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from smtplink.pulse.com ([192.77.130.229]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id OAA17693 for ; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 14:41:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Hao.Xu@pulse.com) Date: Fri, 12 Feb 1999 17:38 -0500 From: "Hao Xu" To: "Donald J .

Nope...no Samba here...206.206.121.11 is our web server...it was sending numerous queries to various machines but all were coming from port 8080 so I just stuck in a line that allowed anything from that machine on that port to be allowed...I didn't want to say allow all from 206.206.121.11, that would just be asking for SYN/RST war trouble all over again... Like I said in the begining, I didn't have ipfw errors pushing up after I added these lines in, just Windows errors...so if there is a specific port that windows absolutely needs to function, I can add an allow in for it and solve my problem that was why I was asking if anyone had come accross this kind of problem before....

MS network doesn't require NetBEUI it'll run perfectly fine over TCP/IP and that is how my personal network is configured. MS Networks use a proto called NETBIOS, but that runs on top of the transport protocol. If this weren't the case samba servers wouldn't work w/o NetBEUI support in the OS. The problem being that a standard windoze client cannot browse across subnets, it uses a broadcast message to find and advertise itself to the rest of the workgroup. Standard windoze 9x clients, when there are no NT/samba servers on the network will become the browse master but are not smart enough to concatenate a cross-subnet browse list. That's where the NT server comes in, it can have a cross-subnet browse list. If I remember correctly, you have an NT server/master-browser on each subnet, and then each server shares/compares lists. This way you get a cross-subnet browse list. Technically, samba has this same functionality and Russell can use this to have a browse list on his laptop, but to my recollection samba 1.19.x isn't compatible with NT servers in this respects. I honestly don't know if the new 2.0x is compatible. HENCE.. the question, is he on an NT network? AND.. what version of samba is he running? and after this long winded block of unreadable text, ultimately, wildcardus is right, that the ms crap is all non-routable (as far as browsing goes) and that's why you have your problem. The question now is, can it be fixed. You should be able to connect to a machine on the ms network, once MS knows the IP it's trying to connect to.

There are usually a couple of drop down items that let your select your local drive letter and then map drives you have mapped before.

I have an account and went to see what it was doing. It returns an error message that the server returned extended information. So, I browsed the FAQ in plain text. I saved it to disk. I then selected the FAQ ad a tar and proceeded to save it. I browsed the PDF and it fired off Acrobat Exchange. I kind of wonder if some parental permission haven't been set some where.

Suffice it to say that many of their tech support staff are totally bloody clueless, a fact I know quite well because my fiancée has kept her AOL account, and when there have been problems I've tried to convince the dufuses on the other end that I *do* actually know something about what I'm talking about, and I might as well be talking to a brick wall. I am quite familiar with the squid-based web caching system they used to have, but now that they're using Inktomi Traffic Server, I'm not exactly sure how they do things. I *do* know that they used to keep a list of sites that they would not cache, usually as a strong discouragement for AOL customers to go visit that site (and because of the size of the AOL cache, this usually gave the maintainers of that site *strong* encouragement to stop doing whatever it was that AOL didn't like, because otherwise they got *buried* with too many non-cached web requests from them. I'm sure they've got something similar with Inktomi, and probably also have a system-wide list of flat-out banned sites. I also know that they have NetNanny (or some other blocking software) that is installed by default, although I believe that you can turn it off. However, if you're having problems accessing a particular web site, I'd bet dollars to doughnuts that it's simply a matter of AOL's system being screwed up yet once again, and since they rotate which cache server you're attached to every five minutes, just wait a little while and try again. >PS I am no fan of AOL. Most of the technical people (and especially the system administrators) who work there are pretty cool. I've got several friends who continue to work there. I just had a real problem with the management and the way that they did certain business deals, and I never could abide a company that has six thousand employees, of which five thousand are just there to answer the telephone when a user has a problem. -- Brad Knowles If you wouldn't take out a one-page ad in the Wall Street Journal to say something, then don't say it by email.

The system is setup to check all file systems, primarily / , /usr , /var at boot time, if there's is no lost+found directory it usually surrenders to its master (you) for help. So, you'll have to run the following after you are thrown into single user mode, (I mean at the same point you mentioned in your message); fsck -y / /usr /var this may be repeated as necessary until all errors are corrected. After you boot successfully, please help fsck to be more robust by manually creating the following directories; /lost+found /usr/lost+found /var/lost+found good luck. -- - MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU. ~o .^. ---------------------------- ___ o~ .00 ) Static Email : osiris2002@yahoo.com /| o~ /)( Bouncing Email : root@isis.dynip.com / | | \ Web Site : http://isis.dynip.com:80 (Frames) ___/ | / \ Anon FTP Site : ftp://isis.dynip.com:21 (anonymous) | /''___/ / | Gopher Site : gopher://isis.dynip.com:70 | /'''/___/ | Network News : isis.dynip.com (Read, Post, Xfer) __|/'''/ Mailing Lists : majordomo@isis.dynip.com (public) pgp key : finger root@isis.dynip.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Feb 12 15:53:38 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA24620 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 15:53:38 -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 PAA24614 for ; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 15:53:33 -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 KAA24333; Sat, 13 Feb 1999 10:23:31 +1030 (CST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.3/8.9.0) id KAA40190; Sat, 13 Feb 1999 10:23:30 +1030 (CST) Message-ID: <19990213102330.R54333@lemis.com> Date: Sat, 13 Feb 1999 10:23:30 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: Oliver Schwarz , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Tokenring AdaptersX References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93.2i In-Reply-To: ; from Oliver Schwarz on Fri, Feb 12, 1999 at 01:06:15PM +0100 WWW-Home-Page: http://www.lemis.com/~grog Organization: LEMIS, PO Box 460, Echunga SA 5153, Australia Phone: +61-8-8388-8286 Fax: +61-8-8388-8725 Mobile: +61-41-739-7062 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Friday, 12 February 1999 at 13:06:15 +0100, Oliver Schwarz wrote: > Hi, > > does FreeBSD support any Tokenring Adapters??

At that point, you simply enter the fsck command. fsck when fsck finds problems, it will ask you if it should correct them, the answer is 'y'. If the problems are disastrous, you'll find that fsck, in making reparations, had to move some things to the lost+found. At that point, it might be better to restore from a backup. If the problems are too bad, fsck won't have to do much. 95% of the times I have to run fsck in manual mode fall into the second case. It has only been with failing hardware that I find myself in the first case. - Dave Rivers - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Feb 12 16:00:00 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA25482 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 16:00:00 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from superior.mooseriver.com (superior.mooseriver.com [208.138.31.113]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA25462 for ; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 15:59:54 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jgrosch@superior.mooseriver.com) Received: (from jgrosch@localhost) by superior.mooseriver.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA04144; Fri, 12 Feb 1999 15:59:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jgrosch) Message-ID: <19990212155939.B4056@mooseriver.com> Date: Fri, 12 Feb 1999 15:59:39 -0800 From: Josef Grosch To: Calvin M Meloon , Eric Hedberg Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: URGENT Reply-To: jgrosch@mooseriver.com References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.91.1i In-Reply-To: ; from Calvin M Meloon on Fri, Feb 12, 1999 at 02:36:53PM -0600 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Fri, Feb 12, 1999 at 02:36:53PM -0600, Calvin M Meloon wrote: > Just email him your kernel. > We would be better off if you emailed him a clue.

Conventional wisdom says you shouldn't be using it, so `read' ignores it. Your easiest solution is to run disklabel -e on each of these partitions and add another partition with the same parameters. For example, if you have: 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] c: 1173930 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 358) change it to: 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 1173930 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 358) c: 1173930 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 358) I'll think about removing this restriction, since I'm sure you won't be the last person to trip over the problem. BTW, you should probably re-cvsup: I've finally implemented the `vinum start' command which will go out and build a read command for you: grog 1999/02/10 21:16:01 PST Modified files: (Branch: RELENG_3) sbin/vinum commands.c Log: Extend 'start' command: if used without any parameters, vinum scans all disks known to devstat for vinum drives and reads their configuration.

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.

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 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 netscape to read the handbook. If you don't have X running yet, use lynx. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. To install them, enter: # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-communicator-4.5.tgz or # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.8.1.1.tgz The numbers after the name (4.5 and 2.8.1.1) may change after this book has been printed. Use ls to list the names if you can't find these particular versions. Note that lynx is not a complete substitute for netscape: since it is text- only, it is not capable of displaying the large majority of web pages correctly. It will suffice for reading most of the handbook, however. Thanks to Stuart Henderson and 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 180 ________ The example in the middle of the page should read: Page 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition For example, to generate a second set of 32 pseudo-terminals, enter: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV pty1 You can generate up to 256 pseudo-terminals. They are named ttyp0 through ttypv, ttyq0 through ttyqv, ttyr0 through ttyrv, ttys0 through ttysv, ttyP0 through ttyPv, ttyQ0 through ttyQv, ttyR0 through ttyRv and ttyS0 through ttySv. To create each set of 32 terminals, use the number of the set: the first set is pty0, and the eighth set is pty7. Note that some processes, such as xterm, only look at ttyp0 through ttysv. Thanks to Karl Wagner for pointing out this error. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: 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: Page 13 Install ports when installing the system 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. 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, Page 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition $ rsh freebie xterm -ls -display presto:0 & The flag -ls tells xterm that this is a login shell, which causes it to read in the startup files. It might work without this flag, but there's a good chance that some environment variables, such as PATH, may not be set. In practice, the xterms menus in the window manager will perform this function for you when you select the appropriate menu item. Thanks to Manuel Enrique Garcia for drawing this to my attention. In the section Installing the sample desktop, replace the first paragraph with: You'll find all the files described in this chapter on the first CD-ROM (Installation CD-ROM) in the directory /book. Remember that you must mount the CD-ROM before you can access the files--see page 175 for further details. The individual scripts are in the directory /book/scripts, but you'll probably find it easier to install them with the script install-desktop: Thanks to Chris Kaiser for drawing this to my attention. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in the directory /src. Replace the example with: # 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: Page 15 Starting the spooler pseudo-device bpfilter ______________________ The Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) allows you to capture packets crossing a network interface to disk or to examine them with the tcpdump program. Note that this capability represents a significant compromise of network security. The number after bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes that can use the facility. Not all network interfaces support bpf. In order to use the Berkeley Packet Filter, you must also create the device nodes /dev/bpf0 to /dev/bpf3 (if you're using the default number 4). Current- ly, MAKEDEV doesn't help much--you need to create each device separately: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV bpf0 # ./MAKEDEV bpf1 # ./MAKEDEV bpf2 # ./MAKEDEV bpf3 Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 264 ________ In the list of disk driver flags, add: o Bit 12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode). If this bit is not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode. 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 Page 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. ___________________________________ Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 294 ________ Add the following section: Problems executing Linux binaries _________________________________ One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux binaries is that they usually contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries. They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries. That's not really a problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 2.2.7 understands is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format as well, and of course that's the default. If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on 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 Page 17 Starting the spooler case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the corresponding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: 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 Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: device not configured If you forget to create the devices for bpf, you will get a message like: tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: No such file or directory Since tcpdump poses a potential security problem, you must be root in order to run it. The simplest way to run it is without any parameters. This will cause tcpdump to monitor and display all traffic on the first active network interface, normally Ethernet: Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 423 ________ The description at the top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address instead of Ethernet address. In addition, a page number reference is incorrect. Replace the paragraph with: o Line 1 shows an ARP request: system presto is looking for the Ethernet address of wait. It would appear that wait is currently not responding, since there is no reply. o Line 2 is not an IP message at all. tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and the beginning of the packet. We don't consider this kind of request in this 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 Page 19 Starting the spooler connection. In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes. It's quite possible that all connections between presto and freebie have been dormant for this period, so presto needs to find freebie's IP address again. o Line 8 is the ARP reply from freebie to presto giving its Ethernet address. o Line 9 shows a reply from presto on the connection to freebie that we saw on line 6. It acknowledges the data up to sequence number 536925851, but doesn't send any itself. o Line 10 shows another 448 bytes of data from freebie to presto, and acknowledging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6. Thanks to Sergei S. Laskavy for drawing this to my attention. Page 450: anonymous ftp _______________________ Replace the paragraph starting with Create a user ftp: Create a user ftp, with the anonymous ftp directory as the home directory and the shell /dev/null. Using /dev/null as the shell makes it impossible to log in as user ftp, but does not interfere with the use of anonymous ftp. ftp can be a member of group bin, or you can create a new group ftp by adding the group to /etc/group. See page 138 for more details of adding users, and the man page on page 805 for adding groups. 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: Page 20 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd. Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very 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.

GNU tar has had similar problems in the past. You can try try GNU tar 1.12 in the ports at /usr/ports/sysutils/gtar. I'd give pax(1) a chance at it first. "pax -r -f filename.tar" should be essentially the same as "tar -x -f filename.tar" IMHO: 200MB isn't a large tar file.

I'd personally prefer to use UM's slapd but these guys need a web interface to add, modify and delete entries in the directory.

Perfect. That's exactly what I'm going to do (unless someone comes up with a really good reason why I shouldn't.) I'm going to run SCANDISK. Hopefully that will fix the problem. (The truth be known, I totally forgot that SCANDISK even existed.) If it doesn't, I'm going to re-format the partition (without /S) and put the system files on it.

It seems to me that the modus operandi for ports installation is to do the build and the install as root. It's possible to do the build as another user, but the install step almost always needs root, and the install step can sometimes trigger the installation of dependency ports, which sometimes means building those ports as root. It's generally considered a Good Thing to do as little as possible as root. I can certainly scrutinize a "make install" step if it's important to me; scrutinizing the entire build process is another issue entirely. It seems like we could come up with a solution for building ports where the port builds were executed as another user - user "ports"? user "nobody"? - if the original "make" was being done by root. Or, we could somehow enforce that a "make" will always build dependency ports, and a "make install" will only install those dependencies (or won't automatically install any, though that's a loss of nice functionality). Is this worth worrying about? I know a common target of derision are those new users who log in and send/receive mail and browser the web as "root" when using a desktop Unix; well, if we reduce the amount of time they need to spend as root, maybe they won't need to be it so much...

I read David's postings around 1/26 relating to this matter but I am still having problems. I have a subnet with (not the real numbers) 200.0.0.1 on the interface card talking to the net. 200.0.0.3 is the static ip that I want for my other machine whose internal ip is 192.168.0.3. My gateway nic has the internal address of 192.168.0.1. These are the rules and the natd command I am using: divert natd ip from 192.168.0.3 to any out via tun0 divert natd ip from any to 200.0.0.3 in from tun0 divert natd ip from any to any via tun0 natd -redirect_address 200.0.0.3 192.168.0.3 -n tun0 tun0 of course being 200.0.0.1. The problem is that when I ping 200.0.0.3 the traffic comes up like this: ... 200.0.0.1 > my.isp's.nameserver: "give me name service tranlation" ... my.isp's.nameserver > 200.0.0.1: "here is the ip number" ... 200.0.0.1 > my.isp's.nameserver: icmp: 200.0.0.1 udp port xxxx unreachable It seems like 200.0.0.1 forgets the translation or something. I change natd to also include -same_ports and I get this ... 200.0.0.1.50535 > my.isp's.nameserver: "give me ... " ... my.isp's.nameserver > 200.0.0.1.50535 "here is the ip number" ... 200.0.0.1 > my.isp's.nameserver: icmp: 200.0.0.1 udp port 1323 unreachable Any ideas?

List all the default partitions during the installation. If you mean MS-DOS FDISK-style partitions (which UNIX calls slices) then the number of partitions can vary depending on whether or not you have multiple operating systems installed (multi-boot). If you mean UNIX partitions (which exist within a slice, or FDISK partition), usually, there are at least four partitions on the system disk: one each for / (root), /var, /usr, and swap. Sometimes people put /var under /usr to pool disk space, in which case the disk will have 3 partitions. Sometimes people will add other specific partitions for various reasons. >2. What are the purposes for these partitions? The root partition (/) is home to the main operating system files. The swap partition is used to provide "virtual memory." /var usually contains varying, transient or otherwise temporary data such as spool and log files. The /usr filesystem is (mostly) everything else, including binary files that aren't strictly a part of the OS, and user files. >3. What are the consideration and How to calculate the size for these partitions? A typical size for / (root) is 32 MB. I use 128 MB for swap (4x physical RAM). And my /usr is all the remaining disk space. >4. Where are all the system log files? Usually under /var/log/. >5. Which one is the main program file and where is it for FreeBSD?? (ie. In DOS, command.com is the OS program) Ummm, COMMAND.COM is *NOT* the operating system in MS-DOS. It's simply a shell to allow the user to interact with IO.SYS and MSDOS.SYS, which *ARE* the operating system. That's why you can replace COMMAND.COM with other shells, such as 4DOS. Of course, under Windows, IO.SYS and MSDOS.SYS (which under Win95/98 is a text-based configuration file, not a binary file) get deactivated when the Windows files KERNEL.EXE, GDI.EXE and USER.EXE are loaded. Anyhow, FreeBSD (and UNIX, in general) allows you to pick from several shell programs with which to interact with the operating system. The actual "main program file" is /kernel. But most user commands are separate programs. >6. How to check the bootup time for the server? I'm not sure what you mean here, but I'd use a stopwatch :-) An informal time trial shows that on my Pentium 90 machine, FreeBSD boot about a minute quicker than Windows 98 does on my P166 machine. >7. How to check whether a process or program is running? I'd use the 'ps' command. >8. How to check the disk usage? Try 'du' (usage) and 'df' (free space remaining). >9. How to monitor the memory usage? >10. How to monitor the CPU usage? The 'ps' command will give you a snapshot of memory and CPU usage for each process. There is software you can use to do live-action monitoring. In X-Windows, you can even get little icon-like real-time graphs, ala Norton System Doctor. >11.Is there anyway I can uninstall FreeBSD without having to format the hard disk? Well, since the UNIX disk format is different than, say, MS-DOS or Windows NT, you'd probably want to reformat. If you install FreeBSD on a machine along with other operating systems (a multi-boot) machine, you can reformat the FreeBSD partition without disturbing the other OS's. You'll find much more info at http://www.freebsd.org/, specifically the FAQ (http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ.html) and the Handbook (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook.html). Also, I highly recommend Greg Lehey's book "The Complete FreeBSD," available from Walnut Creek CDROM at http://www.cdrom.com/.

It looks like you need syncronize /usr/ports/Mk so it is up to date with the port you grabbed for Xfree. /usr/ports/Mk contains some template makefiles for building ports. If you have enough disk space (I think around 200Mb? -guessing), the most straightforward option might be to syncronize the whole ports tree. There are a few ways to do this. I know there is a link on the ports page where you can download the whole ports tree as a gzip'ed tar file, but I've never tried that (see http:www.freebsd.org/ports). I prefer to use cvsup. There's plenty of info for syncronizing sources at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/synching.html, including the info on cvsup and a link to a binary package to install it. If you end up using cvsup, there is a nice example supfile to sync up just the ports tree under /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile. You may want to edit it to use cvsup2.freebsd.org or cvsup3.freebsd.org though, as the default cvsup.freebsd.org is usually kind of loaded down. -- Chuck To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Feb 13 10:14:44 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA28918 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 13 Feb 1999 10:14:44 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ogurok.com (ogurok.com [208.212.72.37]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA28909 for ; Sat, 13 Feb 1999 10:14:43 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from oleg@ogurok.com) Received: from localhost (oleg@localhost) by ogurok.com (8.9.2/8.9.2) with ESMTP id NAA09736; Sat, 13 Feb 1999 13:32:57 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from oleg@ogurok.com) Date: Sat, 13 Feb 1999 13:32:57 -0500 (EST) From: Oleg Ogurok To: Don Dugger cc: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: Diamond Stealth 3D 4000 AGP In-Reply-To: <36C5BA1C.2C7E54BC@hotlz.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 Hi, Don.

Both terms refer to certain branches of Unix development. As a generic "flavor" of Unix, the distinction is woefully obsolete since commercial Unix vendors from early on integrated BSD extensions into their System-V-based Unices, BSD integrated System V features, the widely supported POSIX standardization effort offered common interfaces for areas where SysV and BSD had diverged, and nowadays Unix vendors diverge individually and not anymore along the old SysV and BSD fault lines, due to both SysV and BSD having disappeared as the pair of centrally Unix development branches where other vendors used to adapt their systems from. > The best way to see differences though is to compare the two by actually > using them. Linux is more SysV orientated while FreeBSD is ehm, well, BSD ;) This is greatly misleading. Linux is not SysV-like in any sense of the word, and even calling it "more SysV oriented" doesn't hold water. The Linux kernel has always been developed foremost with POSIX in mind and BSD (or homegrown) extensions if sensible. The Linux userland is mostly GNU, which is primarily POSIX and BSD when in doubt. And BSD of course has also gone its way to accommodate POSIX. Hint: it's not Linux where I need to set an environment variable BLOCKSIZE=K to get rid of those silly SysV-style 512-byte block units in df, du, etc. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de See another pointless homepage at .

Mainly because every system has a root logon, so a invader already has half of the key. A much better method is to login as a normal user (who must be a member of the wheel group) and then use the su command to become root. -- 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 Sat Feb 13 13:09:41 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA17496 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 13 Feb 1999 13:09:41 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from cm110108.cableco-op.com (cm110108.cableco-op.com [206.24.110.108]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA17491 for ; Sat, 13 Feb 1999 13:09:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jwg@cm110108.cableco-op.com) Received: (from jwg@localhost) by cm110108.cableco-op.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA25103; Sat, 13 Feb 1999 13:10:15 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jwg) Message-ID: <19990213131015.07667@cm110119.cableco-op.com> Date: Sat, 13 Feb 1999 13:10:15 -0800 From: Jeff Gray To: Brett Taylor , Jeff Gray Cc: Questions at FreeBSD Subject: Re: aswedit References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.89.1i In-Reply-To: ; from Brett Taylor on Sat, Feb 13, 1999 at 12:01:05PM -0700 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Brett, Thanks but this is where I started.

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - A small but growing group of computer owners who would rather use the upstart Linux operating system than Windows are demanding refunds for the built-in Microsoft software they do not use. In an initiative called Windows Refund Day, a grass-roots group plans to converge on one of Microsoft Corp.'s Silicon Valley offices Monday in the hopes of getting refunds. The refund movement is gaining widespread support among users of Linux, a version of the multi-user UNIX operating system designed to run on personal computers and server computers based on Intel Corp. chips. Linux, developed by a Finnish programmer Linus Torvalds in 1991, is still maintained by Torvalds and a group of far-flung programmers, and given away over the Internet. No company has control of Linux, but a few companies now distribute the software for a fee and provide Linux service and support. Windows Refund Day organizers are hoping to glean more attention for the alternative operating system, which is becoming more widely used in network servers, and to protest against the fact that it is nearly impossible to buy a personal computer without Microsoft Windows already installed. All copies of PCs sold with Windows come with an end-user licensing agreement that states that, if the user does not agree to the terms of the agreement, they can request a refund. But people who seeks a refund usually find themselves in a Catch-22 bureaucratic nightmare. "A lot of people have tried to get their refunds for unused Microsoft products in the past and they run into bureaucratic obstacles," said Don Marti, an organizer of Windows Refund Day and president of Electric Lichen, a Linux marketing company based in San Francisco. A Microsoft spokesman, Adam Sohn, said that users who do not agree to the terms of the licensing agreement should contact their computer manufacturer for a refund. "They might say, 'hey if we sold you the PC and you are not using Windows, we don't want to be supporting a PC that is not using Windows,"' Sohn said. "Their license expressly states that, if you don't agree to the terms, that person should go and contact their OEM (original equipment manufacturer) and get instructions for a return and a refund." And the nightmare begins. Most computer makers require the user to bring back the whole computer for a refund, not just the software. Dell Computer Corp., for example, requires the user to send back the entire PC to obtain a refund for the whole system within 30 days. "In our current build-to-order system, an operating system is required to build and ship a fully-tested system," said T.J. Reid, a Dell spokesman. Dell will offer customers Linux on servers, if they request it, but Reid said it is "extraordinarily rare" for a customer to request an operating system other than Windows on a desktop computer. While the percentage of Linux users on the PC is indeed still a small fraction compared to Windows, which dominates the market, International Data Corp. recently said Linux is the fastest growing network operating system and 1998 server installations were growing at a faster pace than Windows NT. One intrepid individual, an Australian named Geoffrey Bennett, over a four-month period argued in e-mails with Toshiba Corp. that the contract says he can return the operating system to the manufacturer, not the PC. Bennett was eventually sent a refund of $110 (Australian) by Toshiba and he published his saga on the Internet, which has inspired users of other alternative operating systems, such as Linux, BeOs, FreeBSD and others. So what started out as a small grass-roots movement in the San Francisco Bay Area for a Windows Refund Day has now attracted the attention of other Linux groups around the world. Web sites in other countries, such as Japan, the Netherlands, France and New Zealand, have been created, explaining to users how to seek refunds by returning the world's dominant operating system. Linux users in two areas of Los Angeles and in New York City also plan their own refund days Monday, with organized visits to Microsoft offices in those regions. Information posted on the Windows Refund Day Web site (www.hugin.imat.com/refund/) explains that all participants must be polite but firm as they descend upon Microsoft offices and the purpose is not to complain about Microsoft products. Organizers for the visit to Microsoft's Foster City, Calif. office said they expect hundreds of participants, because with the President's Day holiday in the U.S., many people with the day off will be able to join. Microsoft's offices are going to be open, they said. "It will be a spectacle in some way. That spectacle will depend on the people and the energy that all comes together in that place," said Marti. Larry Augustin, chief executive of VA Research, a privately held systems vendor that develops PCs and server computers running Linux, said one of his staff plans to drive a truck with a rock band. T-shirts will also be given out, perhaps with a Penguin logo, the symbol for Linux because its creator Torvalds loves Penguins. Do the organizers really expect Microsoft to begin writing checks when they arrive? "Microsoft is very good at handling press. I expect them to be prepared with something. I don't know what it will be," Augustin said. "It's going to be a fun event...regardless what Microsoft does, we will have a good time."

Sounds like there's a problem with that one machine, HOWEVER, I telnet to that same from from Windows, with no problems. I telnet to the same machine from a Solaris or SunOS with no problems. Also, let me clarify, it's not just telnet but also ssh. Any interactive session into that machine from a FreeBSD machine is slow. Not just the startup but the whole time. Sounds unreal but I've been working on this for several hours and I'm posting because I've run out of things to check.

You can put these in a file and load it with xrdb (which has a man page). To see which resources you need to change, read the man page for each program. If you want something to be set as an overall default font that can be overridden by other fonts in particular cases, put something like this in your ~/.Xresources file (and load it on login with an xrdb line in your .xinitrc or .xsession): *font: 9x15 *fontBold: 9x15bold Read some manuals for more information. -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Feb 13 18:31:42 1999 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA04242 for freebsd-questions-outgoing; Sat, 13 Feb 1999 18:31:42 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id SAA04220 for ; Sat, 13 Feb 1999 18:31:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 6805 invoked by uid 1001); 14 Feb 1999 01:43:16 -0000 Message-ID: <19990214014316.6804.qmail@alpha.comkey.com.au> X-Posted-By: GBA-Post 1.04 06-Feb-1999 X-PGP-Fingerprint: 5A91 6942 8CEA 9DAB B95B C249 1CE1 493B 2B5A CE30 Date: Sun, 14 Feb 1999 11:43:16 +1000 From: Greg Black To: Anthony Hoelzle Cc: FreeBSD questions Subject: Re: remote login "root" References: <36C59F3A.EFBFF765@cio.net> In-reply-to: <36C59F3A.EFBFF765@cio.net> of Sat, 13 Feb 1999 07:50:18 PST Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > I can't log in as root from a remote host, how can I change this?

Allowing yourself to login as root from remote machines makes it esier for other people to do the same and is regarded as stupid, which is why it's turned off by default. Better than using su or logging in as root is to install sudo and use it to allow you to whatever you want. If you're determined to login remotely as root, read the man page for ttys(5) and look at references to "secure".

And my /usr is all the remaining disk space. I think you should probably invest 40 MB in /, and I'd recommend a *large* swap space, about 256 MB (though if you have two disks, you'd be better off with two 128 MB partitions). You'll see in the `top' example below that I use 450 MB, and that I'm using 130 MB, mainly with memory-hungry netscape programs. >> 6.

I'm not sure that was the question, though it's difficult to tell. Another reading might be "how can I tell how long the machine has been running?".

You almost never need to format a hard disk unless you've had hardware problems. On the other hand, `uninstalling' FreeBSD is not a FreeBSD function. If you replace it with a platform which insists on formatting, you'll have to format. If you replace it with a platform which doesn't insist on formatting, you won't have to format. Microsoft seems to have three solutions for problems: 1. Reboot. 2. Reinstall. 3. Format the hard disk and reinstall. People expect you to have tried all three before reporting a problem. None of these make sense in a real operating system. If you have problems with FreeBSD, you should do none of them without a good reason. In particular, FreeBSD is designed for continuous operation (see the uptime of over three months in the example above). Rebooting a multi-user system is a real pain. FreeBSD offers enough tools for solving most problems without rebooting, and it almost never makes sense to reinstall. > Also, I highly recommend Greg Lehey's book "The Complete FreeBSD," > available from Walnut Creek CDROM at http://www.cdrom.com/.

It's been a long time. I think we still do the bad144 format sector sparing for these drives. To quote the man page: The format of the information is specified by DEC standard 144, as follows. The bad sector information is located in the first 5 even numbered sectors of the last track of the disk pack. There are five identical copies of the information, described by the dkbad structure. The rest is in the man page. You run bad144, and it does it for you, assuming the system got your disk geometry right. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

Now I have three entries on the boot menu: F1...? F3...FreeBSD F4...FreeBSD I've tried booting using both F3 and F4 and can't tell the difference. Is this bad? How do I get rid of one of the FBSD entries, and which one? Do I even need to bother? I made two FBSD slices this time around (separate slice for usr),would that explain this?

I installed FreeBSD off my Walnut Creek CDROM onto my second (slaved) physical hard drive into a 2G partition of a 6G hard drive. I then installed Windows NT 4.0 into the rest of the second drive. The first drive (4G master) is all Windows 95. Both drives are connected to the same IDE controller. Unfortunately, I can't seem to get FreeBSD's boot manager to come up. The only way I can boot FreeBSD is using the boot floppy and the command: 1:wd(1,a)kernel. I have tried using BOOTINST.EXE (as per FAQ 2.9, http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ33.html#33) in the /TOOLS directory. Every time I run it, I get the following error messages: Cannot write to file bootsav.bin Cannot write to file boot2sav.bin Running the install program from floppy, CDROM, and FreeBSD are all ineffectual. I attempted to use Windows NT's "OS Loader" to handle the task (as per FAQ 8.7, http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ122.html#122), but I get a "Not a bootable partition" error.

Then I gave Netscape Communicator another try. It would come up (miracle of miracles), but would hang here and there... seemingly random, and would be unusable (I'd have to kill off the process). It happens too quickly, and randomly. However, I do recall going to a page that had some java to load up, and Netscape went comatose. Now: under Windowmaker or AfterStep, Netscape just dumps core and doesn't run. Period. Weird.
