My experience is that they are both very stable OS's and are quite reliable. My Linux box at work has been up since it was installed without a single reboot over three months ago. I've had my FreeBSD boxes up for just as long or longer, only having to reboot for some sort of maintenance (move the machine, whatever). However, BSD seems to excel when under a heavy load.

PLEASE....! Dont make me BEG!!! From Greg Lehey's "How to get best results from FreeBSD-questions." " 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. ... 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." I myself have often been frustrated by people not answering questions, but that's life. FreeBSD still has the best tech support I've seen, commercial product or no. (You should have seen me trying to explain what a horizontal refresh rate was to the support staff at Chembook, for example. *sigh*) Charon@freethought.org http://members.home.net/tuathadedanann/ Most people do not know how to behave in a massacre.

Now I've seen http://advisor.gartner.com/n_inbox/hotcontent/hc_2121999_3.html, which seems a reasonably careful analysis. It shows that FreeBSD outperforms Linux by about 50% in the areas which they have examined, but for some reason comes to the conclusion that, though FreeBSD has all the advantages, one should choose Linux. In particular, they write: FreeBSD UNIX-Advantages, Disadvantages FreeBSD UNIX has a similar story to Linux, but without the commercial aggregators of the code or the honor system that prevents commercial vendors from advancing the OS in unique ways. Thus, to base a product on FreeBSD eliminates the cost of the OS entirely. On the downside, though, there quickly becomes no such thing as standard FreeBSD. Every vendor ends up with a proprietary operating system based on FreeBSD, but not the identical OS. This is fine for the thin server vendor that wants to control the entire software layer, applications and all, but can be a burden and drawback to the vendor that wants to support commercial applications from other vendors. However, the key value in all successful thin servers will be the glue that creates an integrated, optimized system. This often calls for low-level changes to the OS, and exposing those changes to the competition, a la the Linux model, may not be in the best interest of the vendor. I disagree with the statement " Every vendor ends up with a proprietary operating system based on FreeBSD" The fact is that there *is* only one FreeBSD, whereas there are multiple versions of Linux. I'm not sure what the author was thinking of when he said this. Anyway, I haven't had enough time to analyze this report. I'd be interested in feedback from others on the subject.

As far as I know/knew not. But as the follow-up mail from John points out: it might be needed. Then remains the question how to put it in there.

The make portion went without a problem. However, when I did a make install, it stopped with errors. I have the output from a script [filename] make install (gzipped) for whom ever is interested in seeing it (it's about 10K gzipped, 95K normal). The main errors were in main.o and many tcl***.o files, referring to many "undefined" calls to tcl and tk-related functions. I know I have tcl and tk installed, but not all versions (only the 8.0 and 8.1 versions). Also, they're in a.out format (was just trying to upgrade everything to elf). Nothing in the ports dir mentionning the necessity for more than what I had, and as I said, make went without a problem. Any ideas/clues/links to info?

So far so good; except if i try to install from the Boot Floppies using Install From A Dos Partition it can't seem to find the FreeBSD directory (or at least it complains that it can't install any of the dists, including /bin). I've put a "FREEBSD" directory on each of my drives in the hope one will work. Nope. Next, try the DOS install from the \tools directory. So far so good, only now it claims that bin.inf is corrupt. I've downloaded bin.inf several times, in several formats (Binary, Ascii). Corrupt, corrupt, corrupt. *Looks* fine, as far as I can tell - looks like a text file. But "Corrupt" it is. Help?

If it's the normal .tar.gz/.tgz file from an X mirror than one could place it in /usr/ports/distfiles, go to the appropriate ports directory and make. Make will normally try to download it, but seeing that it exists in /usr/ports/distfiles will just use the file.

No, one has to create them theirselves, since the library paths are set in /etc/rc.conf under ldconfig_paths. To create those ld files simply place every lib directory path on it's own line and use them like this: ldconfig -elf /etc/ld-elf.so.conf -aout /etc/ld.so.conf depending on which binary format yer using offcourse. --- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven http://www.freebsdzine.org> asmodai(at)wxs.nl This is my Truth, tell me your's...

It depends on the version of FreeBSD, later ones have it integrated, older ones require to download the drivers from, I think, Bill Paul's website.

That is, if you type `dir' and see a directory `foo', then the FTP server allows you to type `get foo.tar.gz' and it will make a tarball of the directory on the fly, sending it to you.

Well, anyone wanting to set up a server (to take one of the FreeBSD strong points) might want to know the answer to these and other questions. I had to do this with minimal UNIX knowledge about 6 months ago, and chose FreeBSD, which was certainly a good, if not the ideal choice then. However, a question for me now that I understand a bit more is, will Linux perhaps be a better choice than FreeBSD in the future? Here are some reasons why it might be, or which might influence a future decision: (1) Secure web server support For use in the US, SSLeay is not legal without a RSA license, and licenses for individual commmercial use are effectively not available from RSA. For FreeBSD, you must buy a commercial product that includes RSA licensing. Stronghold (an independent SSL implementation) is $1000, Raven (based on SSLeay) is $357. That's per server box. Enter Linux, with Red Hat now offering SSLeay with RSA licensing (single server) in a packaged distribution at about $50. Why can't FreeBSD (Walnut Creek say) do this? (2) High-end database support I've lost track of posts on Oracle support in Linux and FreeBSD, but I gather this is likely to come for Linux, but what support might be available for FreeBSD I'm not clear on. This could be an important consideration in the future - even just knowing the future plans could influence a decision on OS. (3) Technical Support If I have to pay for technical support, it rather ruins the effect for a free OS. I've noticed that several technical questions important to me have gone effectively unanswered on the FreeBSD lists. I have no idea if Linux groups or vendors might be better in this regard, or how the cost of paid support compares, but it's something I would want to know more about for future decisions. (4) Saleable skills Installed base per se doesn't matter to me when I choose an OS for my own server. But if I want to do work in the outside world, being familiar with Linux might be a big plus, especially as the Linux market share increases. These are "real-world" practical issues rather than matters of outright performance. The latter certainly does count, but it's not the only consideration. -- Graeme Tait - Echidna To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Feb 21 6:32:19 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from hole.noc.iafrica.com (hole.noc.iafrica.com [196.31.1.191]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E917A1101F for ; Sun, 21 Feb 1999 06:31:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from robh@hole.noc.iafrica.com) Received: from robh (helo=localhost) by hole.noc.iafrica.com with local-smtp (Exim 2.04 #1) id 10EZvE-0004rO-00 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Sun, 21 Feb 1999 16:31:52 +0200 Date: Sun, 21 Feb 1999 16:31:52 +0200 (SAT) From: Rob Hunter X-Sender: robh@hole.noc.iafrica.com To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Mounting fat32 partitions Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi I'm running 3.1-RELEASE.

Everytime I boot, the kernel loads, then tries to switch root to da1s1a. This is an invalid root. Root should be on da0s1a. I have even compiled into the kernel root on da0, but that does not seem to help. There have been two ways I found to correct this: 1. create a /boot.config file with 1:da(0,a)/kernel in it 2. get to a boot loader prompt and set root_disk_unit=0 Both work, but here is my question. With solution 1, I don't get access to the cool new boot loader. I rather like it, and would like to be able to use it from time to time. With option 2, I can't autoboot the system. IT seems I always have to get to a prompt and set that variable. Is there a way to save that variable for each boot, or is there a way to make FreeBSD use da0s1a as root and still use the new BTX loader? Thanks. Here are some boot loader stats: disk 0: Floppy drive disk 1: IDE internal C: drive with Windows 95 disk 2: SCSI external D: drive with one partition and the following slices slice a: FFS (/) slice b: swap slice e: FFS (/var) slice f: FFS (/usr) slice g: FFS (/usr/local) slice h: FFS (/home) disk 3: IDE internal E: drive with one partition and the following slices slice e: FFS (/usr/ports) slice f: FFS (/usr/src) disk 4: SCSI external ZIP drive FAT 32 currdev is set to disk2s1a, but it always panics trying to change root to da1s1a.

The kernel compiled successfully but when I tried to use the call in a program, I got the following error: "Undefined symbol '_new_write' referenced from text segment" What am I missing? The steps I followed to add my system call were: 1. Declared a new entry in syscalls.master 326 STD 0 BSD { void new_write(void);} (325 is currently the last entry in syscalls.master) 2. Created a new file (called new_write.c) in sys/kern, containing the function definition for new_write Do I have to declare an extern function prototype in some header file too?

Gaining SANE scanner access... 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 Good afternoon, I am trying to access (a probably not yet supported) flatbed scanner on a 2.2.8 box after having installed sane-1.0 and hoping to find some hints in that. find-scanner does locate the scanner (probed and hooked up to /dev/uk0 during boot, find-scanner is in the tools directory in the work sources dir), but (x)scanimage only say something like `scanimage: open of device xxx failed: Invalid argument', equally to any xxx device I put into 'scanimage --help -d xxx'. This might just be as one should expect, but I'm looking for clues where I can't find any. The sane homepage, imho, is not too verbose (yet), at least not for someone like me, maybe that I'm just missing the point, or that I'm just a slow learner. For now, all I know is how to make the device send its (all too verbose, see below) id, from scsi(8) and ncrcontrol(8), and I also had a look at , which I need to digest a little longer, I think. To cut a long story short, I'd like to get the scanner working, or at least get some more information out of it to be able to see whether it's worth it, but I'm somewhat running out of ideas where to look. I have sent a fax twice to the manufacturer (Relisys/Teco), without any response. The char-flood for the hackers follows below. Please include my email (pcc@gmx.de,pc@inr.fzk.de) in the Cc: if not replying directly, and maybe switch to a more appropiate list.

I've been using the equivalent of "dangerously dedicated" disks on both IDE and SCSI disks on a range of PCs from a 486-33 that dates back to 1991 up to boxes built in the last couple of weeks running various releases of BSD/OS and FreeBSD. I have never had any problems with this, and don't expect to (since I'll only ever switch to different BSD versions). I certainly don't buy the theory about dangerously dedicated disks not working at all with modern BIOSes -- unless this is something that is supposed to show up in random use some time after a successful installation, which sounds far-fetched to me. I'm guessing here, but it looks as though any problems should declare themselves when you first install to a new disk if they are going to happen at all. Does anybody have an informed opinion on this last theory? -- 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 21 11:25:16 1999 Delivered-To: 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 (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6D42911928 for ; Sun, 21 Feb 1999 11:25:13 -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 OAA17299; Sun, 21 Feb 1999 14:26:41 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from cjc) From: "Crist J.

If you want to try to get rpc.yppasswdd running, you can just type 'rpc.yppasswdd ' at the command line as root.

I think any of these would work. I've been looking at the rpc.yppasswdd sources (/usr/src/usr.sbin/rpc.yppasswddd) and might have some guesses as to where it is hanging up. It might hang when looking for the master server in the 'ypxfr_get_master()' call (note that this function is in /usr/src/libexec/ypxfr/ypxfr_misc.c... you know how long it took to find that? :). I wonder if that is the problem since ypservers is empty and it is not looking in the right place. The problem I am having is that it is not too clear how NIS identifies which server is the master server. You are only supposed to run the Makefile on the master, but there is nothing I have found in it's comments or code that clearly states how the servers tell each other apart. Nor have I seen this in the documentation or source code. It makes me wonder if rpc.yppasswdd is not confused to and is looking for a master server that it cannot find, thus causing hangs. -- Crist J.

I have been trying to increase the resolution of my screen from 640x480 to 800x600, but in vain. I tried changing the /etc/XF86Config file to reflect the new resolution. Somehow, startx does not seem to pick the information from the file. My adapter card (S3 VIRGE) which has 4 MB of memory supports 800x600 resolution at 256 colors (My other partition in the disk which has Windows 95, can boot and come up with that resolution!). I also tried changing through xvidtune and xf86setup utilities. The log file startx.log indicates that 640x480 is the only supplied parameter.

I wonder if that is the problem since ypservers is > empty and it is not looking in the right place. Well it shouldn't hang on that one now for the master not being present in the ypservers file. It might however expect that the pushing of the maps to slave servers be present. /var/yp/Makefile has NOPUSH= "True" in the file. > The problem I am having is that it is not too clear how NIS identifies > which server is the master server.

That's what I am looking at. It might need ypxfrd along with it, but that wouldn't make sense in a single server setup. --- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven http://www.freebsdzine.org> asmodai(at)wxs.nl This is my Truth, tell me your's...

I'm running FreeBSD-3.x on both. In another state or in another room, its the same for any networked printer. See the man pages for lpd(8), printcap(5), and particularly hosts.lpd(5) (because you really want to restrict who can print on your printer). The above is assuming the printer(s) in question are connected directly to a FreeBSD host.

Why is this so and what are these messages for actually? > Can we in any way speed up the bootup process? (1) What are all these messages for? Well, during bootup, the system does a number of things, and whenever something is done, the system tells you about it. For instance, rather early on in the boot process, the kernel tries to probe the hardware installed. By closely watching these messages (type `dmesg' to see them after the system has booted; they are also in the file /var/log/messages) you can tell exactly what happened. For instance, suppose the Ethernet card fails, then the system will tell you about it. Later on, a number of programs are started which provide certain services. The system tells you about each process started, and it emits an error message if that fails. (2) How can I speed up booting? For me, the longest time spent is waiting 15 seconds for the SCSI devices to settle. You can configure the kernel to wait a shorter time, but I tried it and found that I had to boot the system twice with the shorter time. What also takes time is probing for hardware. The `generic' kernel includes support for a lot of hardware, you might want to compile your own kernel with support for just those pieces you actually have. Starting all the daemons also takes time, you might want to turn off the ones you don't need. See /etc/rc.conf or /etc/defaults/rc.conf. kai -- I like _b_o_t_h kinds of music.

You say this is a reason for choosing Linux over FreeBSD, but admit you have know idea if it is true. My little joke about M$ aside, they are known for having some of the worst customer support in the industry. I have heard, anecdotally, that the free support you get for FreeBSD, Linux, and other open source operating systems and applications is almost always superior to their paid technical support. My personal experiences with SGI tech support versus comp.sys.sgi.admin are mixed. It was sure nice to have a human whose job it was to help me when we had a bad disk crash[0]. But I have had other problems solved more quickly and better on Usenet. Vendor support is not always better than free support. I think the people who demand vendor support tend to be the management-types more than the real administrators (and these management-types are the same people who want to switch to NT because 'it is the future'). [0] But I still do not know if I actually got things working again much or any faster than I would have without paid tech support. In fact, I still was forced to resort to Usenet support. The disk crashed on a Friday and I came into work on Saturday to try to have things in working order by Monday. The regular SGI tech support only runs weekdays roughly during U.S. business hours. To get help on Saturday, my only recourse was help from fellow SGI users and admin (who read comp.sys.sgi.admin on Saturday afternoons =). -- 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 Hi everyone! For the company I work for (I got them to switch to FreeBSD, a win for us!) we have decided we need a workgroup colour laser printer. After looking at what's out there that fits in our budget The HP 4500 is our only choice. However, I have read in Usenet that FreeBSD 3.0 does not support Parallel ECP(forgive my terminonlogy) bidirectional printers. (the 4500 has an ECP parallel port) If that is accurate I was thinking I would connect the printer as a network printer and talk to it through tcp/ip. Which would be the HP 4500N model-- a little more expensive but worth it if I knew it would work. Could someone give me some guidence? If I can't use FreeBSD I could put it on a windoze machine but that is not desirable. Worse, the new boss is really pushing that we switch to Red Hat as he feels it will support more equipment.

SGI has a 24/7 plan with something like a 1 hour guaranteed initial response. The common support plan (the more affordable one) is open something like 10 hours per day, 5 days per week, off most holidays, and a 4 hour initial reply. It all depends on how many thousands of dollars per year you wish to pay to support one box. -- 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.

In short, I have never been able to get PPP to route. Ever. Tell me what I'm doing wrong. In FreeBSD it seems easy enough to me. I start by typing: ppp ... and then I go into terminal mode to connect to the terminal server. I dial in, authorize myself, and then start the PPP session. 'ppp' detects this and takes over. So far so good. Now I type (within 'ppp'): add default HISADDR And now everything should route and be running great, right? Well, not exactly. I am unable to ping any address outside of my computer. The packets go out but they never return (I can verify this by looking at my modem lights). The odd thing is that I can FTP anywhere in the world and everything works fine for about a minute or so... and then FTP locks up and I can't do anything. Has anyone seen this happen before? It's not OS specific (as far as flavors of Unix or Linux) because I've had the same problems in Debian (which I have long since blown away for this very reason). I would love to get my hands dirty with FreeBSD but I can't do much without some type of network connection. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Yeah, the recorded message telling you that the regular tech number is off-hours gives you the number for the 24/7 service. However, I was still stuck. Even if I wanted to sign up for the 24/7 service right-then-and-there to get access, there was no way to do that either. The prices are pretty mind boggling. You have to be saving yourself a _lot_ of hours versus doing the research to fix a problem yourself to make it worthwhile. Of the other calls I have made, a couple were products of poor documentation on SGIs part, one was a hardware problem they never could figure out but we eventually fixed on our own, and the remainder just helped me with an ugly work-around (which I could have done on my own) and never actually fixed the real problem (or verified the problem was 'a known bug' which made me feel so much better). Wow, this is way off-topic. Yikes, I'm done with this thread. -- Crist J.

References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I think the HP 4500N is the option for a couple of reasons. Most of that vintage HP printers support Adobe Postscript level 2 and would work from any of your systems. If you mount it on the FreeBSD box you have to have at least two paths depending on whether the file is text or raw. FreeBSD doesn't speak EMF or any of the other flavors the Windows wants to use. A networked printer can handle both and you can build the appropriate filters into your FreeBSD setups. Everything breaks apart on the little bits like versus and adding a at the end to make it eject a page. I have used Win98 to send postscript to an HP printer; however, Win95 did not deal with features such as duplexing very well. The 4500 doesn't duplex and so that isn't a problem. I'm looking at 4000 for home and it will have duplexing. My home network is all 100baseT and that is a different option. At any rate, from persoanl experience, you could set use defaults to set your printer up one way or the other, which worked on one system or the other but not both.

I have a clock that drifts badly (fast by almost 2 min per hour), although after some reboots, it drifts just a few seconds per hour. Occasionally after a reboot, I'll get 'calcru negative time' messages. I've traced this problem to the following symptom: During boot, the line Timecounter "TSC" frequency xxxxxxxxx Hz is displayed. The routine that clocks the system seems more like a random number generator, and I've seen the following values: 90.2 MHz 87.7 MHz 77.5 MHz At 90.2 MHz, the system clock is pretty accurate. At 87.7 MHz, the clock runs fast by over 90 seconds per hour. (And 90MHz / 87.7 MHz * 3600 - 3600 = +94 seconds per hour, imagine that!) At 77.5 MHz, the 'calcru negative time' errors pop up. I know that, as reported on this list, the timekeeping code is broken, but my question is this: Is there somewhere I can tell the system to use a TSC frequency of 90000000 Hz and have it skip it's internal calibration? I don't envision changing CPUs too often, so I'm not worried about hardcoding it... --Dan ** The thing I like most about Windows 98 is... ** You can download FreeBSD with it!

Over the past couple of days I have been messing around with the machine trying to get it to do 'natd' with a 10base-t card and a 100base-t card and have had nothing but problems. I have tried several different 10/100 base t cards and every card i have tried gives same problem. I decided to just stick in 2 (10baseT) ethernet cards and I have been transfering things over the last 30 minutes and it hasn't locked up at all. So i think it works just fine the way that it is now, but I can't figure out why it won't work with the 10base-t card and the 10/100 base-t card together. It's really frustrating. I have been on the #freebsd channel on both efnet and undernet and they weren't much help on this subject. I just bought a 100base-t only hub and now i think i just lost an investment because i can't seem to get FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE to work. I have been thinking about going back to like version 2.2.8 and see how it reacts to this type of thing. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Take a look at the man page and the -b option for defining boot floppy image. You can use the "boot.flp" image from the FreeBSD distribution for your boot floppy image. The ISO image created by mkisofs can be written to just about any CD-R. I usually write my CD's on a M$Win box, but create the ISO image on the FreeBSD box.

I do not recall specifically going about setting _that_ up when I started to do this, though. A HA! A quick check of /etc/rc shows it starting there if it's flag is not "NO". Now going back to the system configuration file shows _no_ entry for ypxfrd so it will never be "NO". I'm not sure if I deleted that line or what.;-) I noticed that you were not running the server as a client to itself. I do that as well. I do not really understand all of the ins and outs for that but Hal Stern's book seems to say that it is desireable so as to handle possible mail problems.

It's just too easy to make a fool of yourself and it's even worse if you do it in public. If you really must lash out at some mongrel who has offended you, at least do it in private email -- that way, you get to avoid making an ass of yourself in public; you avoid the risk of annoying other people who might then start ignoring your other posts; and you might even get the problem sorted out with the other person. And here's a request for *anybody* who wants to flame me, either about this article or about anything else I have written (or even about my hair colour, religious affiliations, or gender): please leave the list for its purpose and flame me as much as you like in private email. Mark Ovens writes: > Why have I been singled out for a lecture here Greg? You haven't > Cc:'d the 2 other respondents. Your comments could equally well > apply to them also. Mark either has a severely broken mailer or sadly deficient vision -- all the recipients of his original article (two individuals and this list) were Cc'd in the message that he is complaining about -- I know this for certain because I just checked the copy that was delivered to me by the list. As for why my message was addressed to Mark, that was because I was responding to something he wrote with a bit of extra information. It's generally considered the normal way to do these things. > > First, please trim the irrelevant elements of posts that you > > respond to (see the regular article about how to get the best > > from the list if this is a puzzle). > > I have read the regular article, and no, it isn't a puzzle. > > I take it that by "irrelevant elements" you mean the original > poster's .sig, since Charon back-quoted the entire message, except > for the .sig, as well. Bear in mind that, because my message was directed to the list, its intended audience was the list at large. If it was just something for Mark, I'd have written privately to him. The fact remains that, out of 37 lines in the body of his message, four were a relevant quotation and attribution; four were Mark's perfectly reasonable response and a useful line of white space; three lines were an irrelevant bit of quoted material (because there was no comment on it); twelve lines were a completely useless quote of the ridiculous signature from the original message; four lines were the unsubscribe instructions (which also appear at the end, of course); and nine lines were Mark's own excessively long signature.

Jim's article had not arrived here when I replied to Mark's and in any case, if anything I said was relevant to him, he had the opportunity to read my response on the list. He was not one of the parties to the particular message that I was responding to. > It didn't seem necessary to go into detail of how the password file > mechanism works. The original poster only wanted to know how to > change his default shell and mentioned that he had tried editing > /etc/passwd and it didn't work. This is the really silly part of the article. All I did was provide some additional background information for the benefit of both the original poster and for current readers of the list and future readers who might peruse the archives. There was nothing wrong with what Mark first wrote; I just added to it. This is hardly something to get upset about. We all find there are times when somebody else can add something useful to what we have said. But a response like this only serves to make the real point of the exercise (which is to help people better understand and use FreeBSD) disappear under somebody's wounded pride. > > FreeBSD (like many other modern systems) provides both "shadow" > > passwords and a variety of extra fields that are not part of the > > traditional /etc/passwd file.

Everybody on the list is well aware of the problems Mark had in this regard. But the RTFM comment was not directed to Mark, and was not one of those RTFM remarks that are a substitute for providing any useful information. It was a helpful pointer, for the benefit of the original poster and anybody else who wanted more information, to the actual source of further reading on the topic in the event that my couple of paragraphs above might have whetted their appetite for further study of this topic. I apologize to any readers who wish this little controversy had not erupted and assure you that I really mean it when I ask people to address any further flames direct to me in private rather than to the list. -- 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 21 16:50:31 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 7CE1E11C6A for ; Sun, 21 Feb 1999 16:50:11 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 10426 invoked by uid 1001); 21 Feb 1999 20:46:22 -0000 Message-ID: <19990221204622.10425.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: Mon, 22 Feb 1999 06:46:21 +1000 From: Greg Black To: Graeme Tait Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: FreeBSD vs. Linux (was: a couple ?'s) References: <19990221070639.23601.rocketmail@send104.yahoomail.com> <19990221022122.A4170@drwho.xnet.com> <19990221205121.O93492@lemis.com> <36D00F9E.428B@echidna.com> In-reply-to: <36D00F9E.428B@echidna.com> of Sun, 21 Feb 1999 08:52:30 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 only want to comment on two items here: > (3) Technical Support > > If I have to pay for technical support, it rather ruins the effect for a free > OS.

A free OS is still a lot cheaper than one you pay for and with most of the ones you pay for the technical support costs even more than the system. Compare BSDI's prices for upgrades only versus various levels of technical support. Technical questions often go unanswered even when you pay for the answers. Of course, you do have the option of asking for your money back, although this may not be easy to accomplish.

We already do Linux clones for our print servers, and so we are pretty sure we have the cloning process down. (tarring up the files, and then untarring them to the other disk) Since, we (think we) have this down, the only thing left is how do you make the newly cloned drive bootable. In Linux we just boot with a LILO boot disk, and at the boot: prompt we type mount root=/dev/hda1 And then log in as root, and type LILO to install LILO. But seeing as FreeBSD doesn't use LILO, but rather Bootstrap, how do we go about doing this? Also, if we are actually unclear on the cloning process, if someone could kindly inform us of this as well. Thank you very much for your time! ./brm To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Feb 21 17:32:56 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail1.gte.net (mail1.gte.net [207.115.153.32]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 771C510ECA for ; Sun, 21 Feb 1999 17:32:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dahlmand@gte.net) Received: from gte.net (1Cust29.tnt1.long-beach.ca.da.uu.net [208.255.161.29]) by mail1.gte.net with ESMTP id TAA03141; Sun, 21 Feb 1999 19:34:37 -0600 (CST) Message-ID: <36D05385.E083160F@gte.net> Date: Sun, 21 Feb 1999 18:42:13 +0000 From: "Donald P.

Try man natd for starters. You'll also need to compile a kernel with the options IPFIREWALL and IPDIVERT and set a few things in rc.conf, namely natd_enable, natd_interface, and gateway_enable. If you're using RoadRunner, you probably also need to set up DHCP.

This is the only thing (apart from my own > stupidity) that has ever forced me to reboot a BSD system. I've got an old DDS-1 drive that likes locking up on compressed tapes. If I listen to the drive during the "lockup", it sounds like it's retensioning the tape; seeking BOT to EOT and back again over and over. there's nothing BSD can do at this point; the drive is completely unusable. I usually end up having to open the case and unplug the power from the tape drive. The entire machine reboots maybe 1 out 10 times I do this. The other 9 times everything goes back to normal and I can continue using the drive (with a different tape of course :) sa0 at ahc0 bus 0 target 3 lun 0 sa0: Removable Sequential Access SCSI-2 device sa0: 5.0MB/s transfers (5.0MHz, offset 15) -Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Feb 21 18:30:53 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mta3-svc.virgin.net (mta3-gui.server.ntli.net [194.168.54.144]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 91AE510E36 for ; Sun, 21 Feb 1999 18:30:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from michael.cugley@virgin.net) Received: from mike-s-box ([194.168.61.163]) by mta3-svc.virgin.net (InterMail v4.00.03.01 201-229-104-101) with SMTP id <19990222022853.ILTI252.mta3-svc@mike-s-box>; Mon, 22 Feb 1999 02:28:53 +0000 Message-Id: <3.0.5.32.19990222022955.007c77c0@mail.virgin.net> X-Sender: michael.cugley@mail.virgin.net X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.5 (32) Date: Mon, 22 Feb 1999 02:29:55 +0000 To: "Kevin G.

(you can restart, that will update everything, but thats no way to go) sometimes a port will require another port be installed, and, if possible, freebsd will try to install that port, so leave the cd in. make/make install will look there for the missing port. hope i could be of some help -aaron On Sun, 21 Feb 1999, Langa Kentane wrote: > I have just downloaded Xfree86 3.3.3 and now want to install it. > > I believe that you with packages that are not on the ports collection you > can't use the pkg_add command.

IMO, The performance gain over a parallel interface is well worth the extra dollars! The HP laser printers have worked great -- even the ones located 2,700 miles away at another facility. Several people complained about the "fumes" from the HP 5M color laser printers giving them headaches, which is another very good reason to use the Ethernet connection -- locating the printers far enough from users is trivial with Ethernet. -- Regards, Norman C.

I am not completely familiar with 'sudo,' but my _guess_ is that sudo messages are part of the 'auth' or 'authpriv' facilities. The '*.notice' entry is probably what is routing all of those messages to /var/log/messages. To stop all sudo messages from going to messages, add 'auth.none' to the end of the list. To direct them as you want, auth.* /var/log/sudo Now, again, I am not sure how sudo has logging built into it. But this is a guess and a little more info on syslog.conf. See, 'man syslog.conf.' In fact, the example on the manpage talks about doing 'authpriv' in a special way. -- Crist J.

I'm not sure what the author was thinking of when he said >this. If you take the previous paragraph, explaining the advantages of the "openness" of Linux, it starts falling into place. Their argument is based on the fact that in Linux, developpers are "honour-bound" to make available their advancements. They apply the "Red Hat, Cladera, SuSe, Slackware, Debian, etc" model to FreeBSD, forgetting that FreeBSD is much more centralized than Linux for its distribution base. They seem to consider this an advantage to the Linux community that any vendor could take the code and start hacking at their own distribution, and as you said yourself, forgot there is only ONE FreeBSD, one distribution model, one vendor. Most of their arguments thereafter follow this logic, when comparing the two OSes. When giving thier choice of OS for different applications, they place Linux at the top of many solutions. Out of six models, Linux falls 1st on three and 2nd on one. FreeBSD falls first on two and second on one. A fairly similar distribution but giving the advantage to Linux. Apart from the previously discussed argument, I believe that their main reasoning is based on one major factor: marketting. Linux has become the new buzz word, and is more widely known and accepted today as the NOS of choice, no matter how well FreeBSD out-performs it. Linux has a larger userbase and more commercial vendor support (think Oracle as an example). It's more a matter of familiarity, acceptance and comfort (some of the reasons people stick with M$, don't forget) than actual performance, stability, and robustness. For FreeBSD to compete with this, it would have to find a way to compete in the "real world" where the advantages of FreeBSD have little to no bearing on the people holding the purse strings. They're starting to be lenient on Linux since it's becoming so popular. If FreeBSD could reach the same popularity levels, it would probably out-perform Linux almost everywhere. But then again, is that the objective? :) In the real world, it's usually only a matter of exposure and popularity, not of quality. Need only look so far as M$ to find the best example. My 2 cents and interpretation of the article...

I have found that this OS is the most recommended. I have the following requirements to be met and hope this OS or some applications for it can fill them. -I need a FTP server than can be provisioned via a remote GUI. this remote GUI needs to be able to run on win9x boxes as well as other BSD boxes. I am looking for something like the one found in WarFTPd 1.7 released by JGAA for win9x but something that will run on a more stable platform like BSD. -This FTP needs to be able to restrict access by domain name and IP address. It also needs to handle usage statistics by user, class and system for file transfers, speed, logins, failed logins, and time of day/day of week usage. -This OS needs to be able to handle remote shutdown and restart commands as well as shutdown and start commands for each of the servers. -It needs to be very reliable operate with PII and PIII boxes with standard hardware like Sound cards, PCI or APG video, Ethernet Cards, SCSI controllers, and CD Burners. -It needs to allow automatic dial on demand for clients on a local LAN and provide gateway services to win9x clients that is totally transparent to the client. No special proxy settings. Anyhow...these are the major issues I need to have to choose a platform...there are many more but wont bore you with those right now. If I can meet these requirements then its worth my time to buy this OS and see what I can do with it. I appreciate your time in reading though all this...I know I can ramble on forever but this information is critical to an upcoming project that I am charged with managing. I have very little Unix background. Haven't used it in over 15 years now so I will need a lot of support :) Thanks again, Jason Cribbins FtS Productions To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Feb 21 23:28:36 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from allegro.lemis.com (allegro.lemis.com [192.109.197.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A172910E84 for ; Sun, 21 Feb 1999 23:28:31 -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 RAA10479; Mon, 22 Feb 1999 17:58:30 +1030 (CST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.3/8.9.0) id RAA46709; Mon, 22 Feb 1999 17:58:28 +1030 (CST) Message-ID: <19990222175828.F93492@lemis.com> Date: Mon, 22 Feb 1999 17:58:28 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: Gustavo Vieira G C Rios , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: assembly References: <36D0DE0C.50AD0AD9@netshell.vicosa.com.br> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93.2i In-Reply-To: <36D0DE0C.50AD0AD9@netshell.vicosa.com.br>; from Gustavo Vieira G C Rios on Mon, Feb 22, 1999 at 01:33:16AM -0300 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 Monday, 22 February 1999 at 1:33:16 -0300, Gustavo Vieira G C Rios wrote: > CAn i write a program using assembly to read/write mster.passwd file That depends on your ability.

X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Win32 (v3.01b) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello all I recently installed FreeBSD 3.0 from CD, and I am having trouble with a Lucent chipset based V.90 PNP modem. I looked through the docs and they mentioned something about a PNP ID, which I don't know how to get from the hardware. Also, I have a suspicion that this is one of those castrated "Windows Only" modems, although it does it say so clearly in any of its docs or on Lucent's website. Does anyone know if Lucent based modems are "windows only?" Also, if this is indeed one of those "winmodems," I'm going to need another one. Can anyone recomment a decent PCI V.90 modem that works in FreeBSD? Do the generic Rockwell based modems work? I really don't want to spend $100 on a modem (Like the Diamond Supra or the USR Robotics).

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I recently upgraded from 2.2.7-Release to 3.1-Release. But, now I can't find dset. I suppose it was removed in the switch to ELF? With dset gone, how are "kernel -c" changes saved? I have a non-PnP BIOS and a PnP sound card, which works fine but now I have to enter the PnP info in the kernel userconfig every time I boot. "man pnp" still refers to dset. Is there a solution, or am I condemned to retyping port irq and drq information every time I boot?

I am running FreeBSD 2.2.7 on a Millenium II by Matrox. I have installed X windows and KDE desktop (kde-1.0 'Meta-port' for the KDE integrated desktop X11). I have the sound working. I want to open kmpeg so that i can play audio files on KDE. The only problem is that I can't open the file. Now with some files you obviously need additional files or shellscripts. How do you know what files and shellscripts to use ?? I have used commands like "pkg_info" and "Man", and looked at descriptions given with the packages. I can't find the information that I need to open this file. I have tried typing in the full path to the file and tried opening the KDE lnk file.

It's OS is based on FreeBSD, but it has it's own device drivers and extra stuff yanked out (like no xntp!, which annoyed me). On top of this it runs CheckPoint Firewall-1 and Apache that runs their configuration front end. It's pretty neat, but it isn't standard, and I really can't muck with it, if there was a problem. -- I hear there's some exciting developments in rubber squeak toys! - The Tick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 22 5:36:26 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from trost.ravn.no (trost.ravn.no [193.215.220.235]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8B58A10EF9 for ; Mon, 22 Feb 1999 05:36:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from reidarb@ravn.no) Received: from gribb.ravn.no (gribb.ravn.no [193.215.220.237]) by trost.ravn.no (8.9.1/8.9.1) with SMTP id OAA05605; Mon, 22 Feb 1999 14:35:19 +0100 (CET) Message-Id: <3.0.32.19990222143658.00a8cb6c@trost.ravn.no> X-Sender: reidarb@trost.ravn.no X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0 (32) Date: Mon, 22 Feb 1999 14:37:00 +0100 To: Langa Kentane , "'freebsd-questions@freebsd.org'" From: Reidar Bratsberg Subject: Re: su permissions (newbie) Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG At 15:05 22.02.99 +0200, Langa Kentane wrote: >Everytime I try to su to root it tells me that I don't have the permission >to do so. > >How do I go about giving myself permission to su to root?

I've tried a number of different mice (Logitech 3-button, Microsoft, Compaq), all of which have worked under Linux and OpenBSD, but which have never been detected by FreeBSD. Even thought the GENERIC kernel is supposed to support the ps/2 mouse, I went ahead and recompiled the kernel under 2.2.8, but it still refused to see it. During the boot process I've also gone in UserConfig mode to specify different io ports... Still no luck. I'm going to try to recompile the kernel under 3.1 tonight and give it another go. I would really like to give up on Linux and switch over to FreeBSD but I have no free serial ports and can't exactly do much without a mouse. The computer is a Compaq Presario 2200, with a Cyrix MediaGX processor and any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

A few months ago I cvsup'ed a system of mine up to 2.2.7STABLE Since that moment my sendmail (8.8.8) doesnt't permit to rewrite outgoing mail's "From" addresses for local users. I can't get rid of this host name in "from" addresses. (e.g. defined "From" address for my mailer is andy@moldsat.md, but sendmail issues mail marked as "From: andy@faust.moldsat.md") sendmail.cf is just generic and works fine with any other system. Is there any kind soul to enlighten me? andy Kishington is real. The rest is done with mirrors.

The ISDN connection is running through a 3com Impact IQ. According to the handbook, it should just dial out like a regular modem, and automatically pick up both channels. It only dials out on one. If I plug it into a Win95 box, it dials out on both channels. The dynamic bandwidth also works. How can I make my FreeBSD box use both channels and dynamic bandwidth? There's nothing in the mailing list archives, and the Handbook doesn't mention this.

Actually, I want to block any packet with source or destination port equal to 137, 138 or 139 from coming in or going out of our intranet. It will be done on our firewall which is IPFW on FreeBSD. So Netbios connections will be allowed inside our Intranet, but be denied from/to go out/come in. I'd like to get sure that it doesn't make any restriction for existing services.

I usually do the following: 1. From Windows, open a DOS shell, or better yet, boot into MSDOS mode. 2. Create a directory "C:\BOOT" or something like that. 3. Copy "tools\bootinst.exe" and "tools\boot.bin" from the cdrom to your new directory (or ftp from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/3.1-RELEASE/tools/) 4. cd into your new "BOOT" directory and run "bootinst" Then just follow the prompts. You might wonder why you can't run `bootinst' directly from the cdrom. `bootinst' wants to be able to write a backup of your current boot record wherever it is running from, which doesn't work on the read-only cdrom. Good luck.

After using sysinstall to install the WindowMaker package, wmaker fails to start because of a missing libwraster.so.

NIC1 - Real IP; to Internet NIC2 - Real IP; to Perimeter network <--> on this network another HOST (HOST A) with Real IP NIC3 - Private IP; to Internal network NIC1 & NIC2 & HOST A will all be on the same network address. I've done ipfw several times with 2 network cards. How is FreeBSD going to handle this 3rd card? NIC1 & NIC2 will be on the same network ID. On the perimeter network will be a bastion host having a real IP on the same network. I was thinking maybe I could bridge between NIC1 & NIC2. Or will static routing work in this case? I'm unsure. I'm aware of the -u flag to natd to enable translation only for rfc1918 compliant addresses. Real IPs will be passed untranslated. Will routing be a problem? I'm thinking, if on the firewall I added the following example this might work(?): route add default route add -host route add -net ... The alternative solution is to enable translation on HOST A with another fake IP network but using static NAT. IOW: EXT NETWORK: real PERIMETER NETWORK: 192.168.16.0 INTERNAL NETWORK: 192.168.17.0 where HOST A on the perimeter network will be static NAT to its real IP. If I were to do this, where do I assign HOST A's real IP? As an alias to the firewall's external NIC? How can FreeBSD handle NAT using more than one public IP? I appreciate any direction. Thanks!

I'm currently running 3.0-RELEASE (will be upgrading to 3.1 as soon as I get the CD's). I want to buy a new video card, but I have some concerns I was hoping someone here may be able to address. I am thinking about buying a video card with an nvidia TNT chip (AGP). According to the XFree86 page it is supported. However, I've heard rumors that the nvidia has probelms with non-intel motherboard chipsets. I have a Via Apollo MVP3 chipset on my motherboard. According to what I have heard, the problem is due to not quite correct AGP support on the chipsets. The problem results in the computer locking up as the OS is booted. The problem is apparently resolved by motherboard drivers for Windows. Obviously I won't be able to use those drivers. So, my question is: Does anyone here have experience running XFree86 with an nvidia tnt based card and a non intel (or specifically Via Apollo MVP3) chipeset?

It is a complete operating system, just like Windows NT or Windows 95 or OS/2 or MacOS or AS/400 or MVS/ESA or ... you get the idea. FreeBSD is a version of Unix (just like Ultrix, Solaris, Irix and so on). FreeBSD can be installed alongside another OS on the same machine, and you can decide at boot time which OS to boot. kai -- I like _b_o_t_h kinds of music.

I'm trying to setup the following on my home PC: primary master: 6.4GB IDE with Windows 95B (FAT32) (C:\) secondary master: 6.4GB IDE (FAT32) -- storage drive (D:\) secondary slave: 3.2GB IDE (165) FreeBSD 3.1 Release (previously my E:\ drive) I've tried twice already (via FTP install), but I can't get it to work the way I want. I would like to be able to choose at boot-time which OS to run (Win95 or FreeBSD). The first time I installed FreeBSD, I chose to dedicate the entire secondary slave drive to FreeBSD (ie. "dangerously dedicated"), only to realize at the end of installing, I wasn't prompted about installing any boot manager. And as expected, my computer loaded Win95 as usual upon reboot (only difference is that it can't see the secondary drive anymore). The second time installing FreeBSD, I chose the other "true partition" option (ie. it split the physical 3.2GB drive into 3 partitions: first and last partitions very small, the middle partition for FreeBSD). This time I was prompted about installing a boot manager and I chose the option that would do this (the other two options were install a normal MBR, and not to do anything at all, or something like that). Anyhow, after installing and rebooting, my computer loaded into Win95 again with no trace of any 'boot manager'. My questions now are: Does the install process assume the user will install on the primary master drive only? (ie. partition the C: drive) How can I achieve, if possible, the setup I described? (incidentally, a friend of mine suggested using System Commander... I'd prefer using a boot manager native to FreeBSD to do this though) Thanks in advance! This is my first time trying to setup FreeBSD to co-exist with Win 95 (or any other OS for that matter). --Victor P.S.: On a side note, after my first FreeBSD ("dangerously dedicated") install, I tried loading FreeBSD by changing the boot sequence in my BIOS to 'run' the secondary slave drive first instead of the usual 'floppy drive, primary master drive' sequence. Well, this worked up to a point, then it got some error (about mounting or something) and stopped. I assumed the error was related to the positioning of the drives and then decided to install again (trying to get the boot manager this time). That is, my assumption was if I had opened my computer to physically connect the FreeBSD drive in place of the primary master -- it would have worked. Can anyone confirm this?

It's a little ol' PentiumPro with 24 MB RAM and 60 MB of swap. In hindsight, I should have given it more swap, but it never occured to me that POP and IMAP servers would be memory intensive. On to the problem, someone mailed a 40+ MB file to another user. This combined with the load of some other people eating memory with IMAP and large mailspools caused the recipient of the 40+ MB file's IMAP daemon to fill the swap to the top. I had the user quit from IMAP, and I removed the big mail item using elm as root. Now, I had assumed everything would be OK, but... Some bad behavior from both the inetd on the FreeBSD server, and Outlook POP and IMAP clients gave me headaches. The inetd process was returning a (this is from memory, I can't seem to find any logs of the exact message), Warning: inetd: realloc(): junk pointer too low inetd continued to return these after the swap problem had been fixed and even after a 'killall -HUP inetd.' Further, when Outlook catches this warning message, it gives up as if it was a fatal error (which it is not, Netscape clients worked fine). I ended up fixing the problem by killing inted completely and restarting it. Has anyone seen behavior like this from inetd before? I occasionally get those 'junk pointer' messages on several of my FreeBSD systems for a number of different applications, is that unusual? Is there a way to stop this? If this is reproducible, it seems like a DOS security hole.

The Pmake Tutorial is a fine document, but it's not perfect. That's one of its more imperfect suggestions. If you have trouble believing that, just hop into some of the system directories on any BSD system, run make with and without the -n flag and be amazed at how rarely the -n flag will give you even a vague hint of what the real make would have done. > I gave a bit of a preamble at the start because I'm also looking for > answers to these; > Q4) Is there a better way to do this using make? It's still not clear to me just what you want to do. But it certainly sounds like something that you can do easily enough with make. You may need to read the tutorial a couple more times before it becomes `easy', however. > Q5) Is there a better way to do this using something else? Well, make is the tool that ws invented for this stuff. It does a pretty good job, but it's not easy to learn and most people never master it. The common approach, and it works for lots of people, is to build up the makefile a little at a time, working from the tutorial, until you have something that approaches your goals. The tutorial actually does this quite well. > I've re-read my initial post, Greg, and I dont think I was being too > verbose.

How can I > restrict sudo stuff from the messeges file? I've tried sudo.none but that > doesn't seem to help, and the man page isn't much help either. The basic problem with syslog is that there are two basic problems with syslog: * It was spawned by the same mind that inflicted sendmail on us and so is cursed with an utterly bizarre set of rules. * It is so widely used that it's really difficult to see any way of getting rid of it. In my own software, I use my own logging library which follows a model that I find much easier to configure and millions of times easier to explain to my users. However, since all the system stuff uses syslog and since it's not going to go away, we also have to understand how it works. This is not the full story, because that's in the manuals (even though it's difficult to follow) and because I don't have time to write a five thousand word essay tonight. But the critical thing to really get into your head when understanding syslog is that the rules are additive -- creating some new rule to send some set of log messages to a new destination does not stop them from also going wherever they were already going. To stop them, you have to first figure out which rule is currently active and change that. Once you have accomplished that, then you can add your new rule. Another problem is that the levels cannot be selected on their own -- if you want 'info' messages, you also have to have all the higher level messages as well. This is one of the most broken parts of the syslog mess. One approach that works for lots of people is to throw away the system syslog.conf and to craft a new file from scratch, adding rules one by one with each rule going to its own file(s). When you're sick of the 'debug' messages from sendmail, you just remove its log file; but the file you have left in place to collect the more important messages will still do its job. Of course, the danger with this approach is that, if you make a mess of it, you may deprive yourself of messages that actually mattered to you. So tread carefully if you go down that road. And use the logger(1) program to send test messages and ensure they end up where you expect to see them. -- 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 22 11:10:36 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from imo17.mx.aol.com (imo17.mx.aol.com [198.81.17.7]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2409B11EE8 for ; Mon, 22 Feb 1999 11:10:32 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from DaveM18610@aol.com) Received: from DaveM18610@aol.com by imo17.mx.aol.com (IMOv18.1) id TTSTa03212 for ; Mon, 22 Feb 1999 14:06:07 -0500 (EST) From: DaveM18610@aol.com Message-ID: <1daa2d50.36d1aa9f@aol.com> Date: Mon, 22 Feb 1999 14:06:07 EST To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Mime-Version: 1.0 Subject: dumb Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: AOL 4.0 for Windows 95 sub 236 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Do not spam me again, I dont appreciate a bunch of dummies using the inet in this manner!

Look in the stable archives for recent posts about this. There's a tutorial to be followed, almost to the letter. However, instead of doing the two-step make aout-to-elf-build and make aout-to-elf-install as single user, it's better to drop right away to single user and do a make upgrade. Did it from a 2.2.7 machine and it worked like a charm (once I got all the source). Keep in mind, this isn't recommended for a production machine. If this machine is running as a server right now, it's recommended you use a separate machine and install 3.1 there first, and port everything you have on the first one to the second one to see how well it reacts. That way you don't waste time trying to get the new system working. This is because of the extent of the modifications (from aout to elf binary format). Many things can get broken in the mean time, like anything depending on aout libraries, may not find them all. Check the archives for tales of woe.

And we are currently developing release 1.7 which will include Package Support as well as new System Security tools. Please visit http://homepage.esoterica.pt/~jardim/Index.html for a detailed description of what is FreeBSD System Administration Manager. But for release 1.7 which will be out around Mars the 15th. I would like to make it a package instead of the current install procedure. My first question is, Is there any GUI tool to help us create packages distributions (as commented in pkg_create man page)? My other question, After you have tested FreeBSD System Administration Manager v1.6 would you help me promote what will seriously change the way people Administrate FreeBSD Systems in the News Flash? Feel free to ask me anything you want to know about FreeBSD System Administration Manager.

You could possibly fold in the drivers for `xl' into 2.2.6; but the xl drivers have been incorporated into 2.2.8. Could you possibly install 2.2.8 instead?

My PS/2 Logitech Pilot 3 button mouse works fine under 2.2.8 (& did under 2.2.7 as well). It's a while since I set it up, but IIRC it is supported in the GENERIC kernel but isn't enabled by default. > During the boot process I've also gone in UserConfig mode to specify > different io ports... Still no luck. Try ``boot -c'' again and ensure it is enabled (look in the lower pane, "Inactive drivers -> Input", for it). As a confirmation that it is enabled you should see a conflict with the sc0 console driver (and a note that this is an allowed conflict. -- FreeBSD - The Power To Serve http://www.freebsd.org My Webpage http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~markov _______________________________________________________________ Mark Ovens, CNC Apps Engineer, Radan Computational Ltd.

I directed him to the Kirch paper because I assumed the "high volume" Microsoft site he was talking about was Hotmail (owned by Microsoft) and runs on FreeBSD and Solaris. From the Kirch paper.. Hotmail, The Microsoft Corporation This free Web-based e-mail service runs a mixture of Sun Solaris and FreeBSD. Apache 1.2.1 is the Web server software. After Microsoft purchased the company in December 1997, they tried to migrate to NT, but ". . . the demands of supporting 10 million users reportedly proved too great for NT, and Solaris was reinstated."

Yes. You are wrong. You're thinking about DOS, where you have total control over everything.

It seems from LINT that the Libretto has some special kind of floppy drive that requires certain kernel config options to use. Also, I intend to do a network install using a LinkSys PCMCIA ethernet card, so I'll need some way of getting the pccard stuff onto the machine prior to installing the full system. It would seem to me that this could be done using customized boot/fixit floppies, NFS, and some patience, but I'm quite clueless as to how to go about this.

I have been very successful ever since I resigned myself to not have accelerated graphics until I get a more-supported video card. One thing I do not understand is where to set environment variables such as NNTP_SERVER or LD_LIBRARY_PATH (for real video) or MANPATH (I can't get xman to see local man pages, for example). When I used only text or telnet modes, I set these in .profile. Here is how I have X set up: /etc/ttys says: ttyv3 "/usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodaemon" xterm on secure $HOME/.xinitrc says: #!/usr/local/bin/bash exec /usr/X11R6/bin/wmaker I use bash as my shell. I have tried setting environment variables in .profile and in .bashrc; setting them in .bashrc makes them carry over into xterm sessions, but WindowMaker doesn't seem to get them when, for example, launching Netscape from a WindowMaker dock icon.

Stephens. Cc: Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have a sun box sitting on a private network (10.0.0.0) I would like to (by using natd on a freebsd box): 1) be able to access the rest of the world from the sun, 2) be able to access specific ports on the sun from the rest of the world. (I need to run a mail, pop3, and web server on the sun.) If I have the following configuration on a freebsd box (running 2.2.5): ed0: 205.181.13.180 ed1: 10.0.0.8 and ipfw: 300 divert 6668 ip from any to any via ed0 400 divert 6668 ip from any to any via ed1 500 allow ip from any to any Then if I execute the command on the freebsd box natd -same_ports -use_sockets -interface ed0 -redirect_address 10.0.0.8 0.0.0.0 I am able to access the rest of the 205.181.13.0 network from the sun box sitting on the 10.0.0.0 network. If instead I execute: natd -same_ports -use_sockets -interface ed1 -redirect_port tcp 10.0.0.6:80 \ 205.181.13.180:80 (the sun's ip address is 10.0.0.8) I am able to connect to the web server on the sun via 205.181.13.180:80. I'd like to be able to do both at the same time. Is this possible? If so how can I go about doing it- I've been taking shots in the dark up to this point.

I have a 3Com Impact IQ, and it uses both B-channels by default as long as multilink is enabled in the TA. If you believe that you have multilink enabled and it's not working for you, send me your ppp configuration and the output from the TA when you send it 'AT\S' and AT%R' commands, and I'll try to figure out whats going wrong for you.

It isn't disabled in the BIOS is it?. Do you have a PS/2 keyboard as well? I don't know if they cause conflicts (e.g. sharing a port with the mouse) as my kbd is the old 5-pin DIN type. The only other thing I can think of, which isn't going to be much help I'm afraid, is that it's because it's a Compaq, proprietry design and all that. -- FreeBSD - The Power To Serve http://www.freebsd.org My Webpage http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~markov _______________________________________________________________ Mark Ovens, CNC Apps Engineer, Radan Computational Ltd.

The system is exhibiting all the symptoms of bad disk geometry (eg After pressing F2 at the booeasy promp to boot FreeBSD the prompt reappears). MS Windows occupies the first 3.5GB slice/MS DOS partition, the rest 4+GB is FreeBSD. The disk, an IBM-DYLA-28100 is reported by the BIOS as 15880 cyl/16 heads/ 63 sectors. My colleague used FIPS to partition the disk and we attempted to install FreeBSD - something we have many positive experiences doing - to no avail. The disk geometry reported by FDISK (in the partition disk part of sysinstall) was not the same as the BIOS; changing it (from x cyls/163 heads/63 to that above) suppresses the complaint about a partition not starting on a track boundary & allos the FreeBSD install to continue but the PC will not boot anything. Does the root partition of the FreeBSD slice need to be in the first 1024 cylinders ?. The BIOS says it supports LBA. I have tried a number of times with the same result of losing the formerly bootable MS partition/slice as well as not being able to boot the freshly installed FreeBSD slice. This is a fairly devasting return for me to the bad old days of OS/2 1.3 and Win 3.x. It's not possible for me to back up the MS partition - as it must be for *many* if not all home users - and so it seems that installing FreeBSD equates to reloading MS. Your comments will be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Yours sincerely.

No. As I said in my last message, assembler doesn't bypass the API. The system runs in two modes, user and kernel. The only way to load kernel code without permission is to write your own kernel and boot the machine with it. > If so, i can hack a UNIX system (no matter which) using assembly! No. > Am i wrong ?

This is if you're doing a build of 3.1 since the tut was made for 3.0. It's very good and points to a few other important pages (like upgrading /etc and /dev) so I'd recommend you either place a link on your site, or ask the author if you can use it within your site. Since I've used your site often for insight, and I'm sure many others do, it would be beneficial to many :) Also, on another note, another problem I found (my main reason for upgrading to 3.0/3.1) is that 2.2.7 doens't support USB. This caused a major problem since I'm using a Dell Dimension XPS R and the mb is ATX with USB and PS/2 (comes with a PS/2 mouse). 2.2.7 doesn't detect the PS/2 port properly because of USB, and 3.0/3.1 solves the problem. Hope this is usefull! And hope your make aout-to-elf-build won't break anything :) Manu Dan Langille wrote: > > On 22 Feb 99, at 12:12, Emmanuel Gravel wrote: > > > It's easier than that.

Sorry your having problems! Your obviously reasnably competent, as you've managed to post to this list... This list is absolutely full of people who are willing to help you - but they can only help you if you write and tell us what's wrong! A simple "it doesn't work" doesn't help, and by the look of it - your writing too late now as well! :( > And I also want to complain about all the hardware > and installation routines. They suck. I guess you have to be an expert > already only to get FreeBSD installed and working. FreeBSD is very different from 'Windows' which is often the only operating system users have had exposure to... The installation routines are sometimes a little rough around the edges - but they do work! Once again, if you post the type of problem you having (or look through the FAQ on the website) someone will probably help... If you were installing Windows, what would you do? - Bin that as well at the first sign of trouble? > I recommend you take a look at Turbolinux. They know how to make the > installation easy and understandable for non linux/unix experts. That is what we're aiming for, maybe you could come up with some constructive critisim? - or suggestions like "Turbolinux does this - it's cool, why don't we do it?", or "I got stuck at this point, but if it had said 'x x x x x x' I could have made it..." > So I will delete FreeBSD and install Turbolinux again if I can't find > help with these problems anywhere. I should have given the 40 bucks to a > bum this would have been a better investment. > Best regards > Alex Sorry you didn't make it... In my experience, FreeBSD is very reliable, expandable and stable... Maybe if you'd had the patience to stick it out and talk to people - we probably could have helped - but if your going to give up, please don't slate FreeBSD - it's not it's fault you couldn't get it working, it's your fault - if only for the fact you've not given it a propper chance... ps. Your 'Best Regards' would appear to be the only part of your email that wasn't on fire, I'm hoping your next reply - if you do reply will follow it's shining example? (Be polite, be patient!)

I think it will be somewhat difficult to persuade bash to automatically source your .bashrc file from .xsession, but you can hard code a ". ~/.bashrc" line in your .xsession. Sales pitch: I use zsh specifically because it ALWAYS sources ~/.zshenv, even for shell scripts. Make sure your .xsession is executable (chmod a+x ~/.xsession) and is a bash script (starts out with #!/bin/bash or what ever your path to bash is) and things should work fine. You can also set environment variables directly in your .xsession if you want too.

That is one way. It matters as to what the coil voltage and current your relay requires. Not likely you will be able to activate the relay with the very small current available on the serial port. You'll have to build an amplifier or such. Or a very small relay (check the DigiKey catalog for specs, experiment with an amp meter on your serial ports). With a small enough relay one could switch power from a power supply that could power the power relay for your printer. Am thinking RS-232 is only good for 10mA, which isn't enough to switch any relay that would be of much use. You'll need to use a transistor to drive the big relay. And you'll need a power supply ciricut to power that transistor and relay. Think a cleaner and quicker solution would be to buy an X-10 Appliance Module to plug the printer in, and a cheap controller ($15). When you want to print, push the ON button (several times to make sure it works) for the Housecode and Unit of your printer. Modern printers power themselves down when not used for a while. -- 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.

I was having this problem where libXpm would not build from the port. Well after screwing around with stuff I finally figured out what was going wrong. It seems the port was building the library ok, but when it came time to build sxpm, it required a link to libXpm which had to be ALLREADY installed. So what I did was that I manually went into the /lib build directory, and did a make install. Then went back to the installation of the port and did a make, and everything went smoothly. I think this is a problem with the port...where it's using as libXpm the library installed in /usr/X11R6/lib, when it should be using the one in the work directory of the make. Anyway, hope this helps someone out. :) Dennis ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dennis Ostrovsky ** Department of Chemistry ** Yale University E-mail: den@master.chem.yale.edu WWW: http://pantheon.yale.edu/~do33 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 22 17:55: 8 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from inet1.inetworld.net (inet1.inetworld.net [207.167.112.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BB5031197F for ; Mon, 22 Feb 1999 17:54:59 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mbermal@ieng9.ucsd.edu) Received: from pb (p6n207167115147.inetworld.net [207.167.115.147]) by inet1.inetworld.net (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id RAA28027 for ; Mon, 22 Feb 1999 17:54:57 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <199902230154.RAA28027@inet1.inetworld.net> From: "Mark Bermal" To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Mon, 22 Feb 1999 17:54:56 -0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Subject: Generic Lucent PNP modem (winmodem?) X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Win32 (v3.01b) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello! I am having problems setting up a generic Lucent based PCI PNP modem. Though the bios finds the modem just fine, the kernel can't find it, even though I compiled it w/ pnp support. Also, I read something about putting the pnp ID# in the sio.c file, but the problem is I don't know what the pnp id# is. My bios shows a bunch of numbers at boot denoting the card, is it a combination of those? Though, I have a suspicion that this modem is one of those "Winmodems," though the docs and lucent website don't explicitly say so. Does anyone know for sure if Lucent based modems are "winmodems?" And, if this modem is in fact a "winmodem," what are some modem recommendations for a V.90 PCI modem that works well under freeBSD? Are generic PCI V.90 modems based on Rockwell chips winmodems? I would like to spend under $50, but if I must I could go buy a Diamond Supra or USR modem, but those cost an arm and a leg.

Knowing the bios's in some of those older 386 and 486 machines I would guess that the bios is the problem. Where does the boot stop? What message does the machine give you?

I do know however that it's 100 times easy to go the other way. Let FreeBSD handle the internet connection, and do your browseing in windows. FreeBSD does a much better job handleing the connection, and takes some load off the windows machine. You get better performance, less lost connaections , and maybe even less Windows lockups.

I next installed XFree86 3.3.3.1. This version of XFree86 is elf. The outcome is that I have a happy, stable, system with elf binaries. I've brought over a few ports and packages, and most have gone in without a hitch. The problem I'm having is with Netscape 4.5. I think my aout configurations are not set up correctly in /etc/rc.conf or ldconfig (or both). I have been following this same saga that some others have reported, but their solutions don't seem to work for me. I (and perhaps some others) would really appreciate it if someone could post the proper /etc/rc.conf and ldconfig commands for an elf machine with aout compatibility. BTW, I want to try the JDK next, but I want to get this working first. Below is the error I'm getting from ld.so and my current configuration. # /usr/local/netscape/netscape /usr/libexec/ld.so: Undefined symbol "___error" called from netscape:/usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libX11.so.6.1 at 0x20c4161c # ldconfig -aout -r /var/run/ld.so.hints: search directories: /usr/lib/aout:/usr/X11R6/lib/aout 0:-lX11.6.1 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libX11.so.6.1 1:-lICE.6.3 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libICE.so.6.3 2:-lSM.6.0 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libSM.so.6.0 3:-lXext.6.3 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libXext.so.6.3 4:-lXt.6.0 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libXt.so.6.0 5:-lc.3.0 => /usr/lib/aout/libc.so.3.0 6:-loldX.6.0 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/liboldX.so.6.0 7:-lXmu.6.0 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libXmu.so.6.0 8:-lalias.2.4 => /usr/lib/aout/libalias.so.2.4 9:-lXIE.6.0 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libXIE.so.6.0 10:-lXi.6.0 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libXi.so.6.0 11:-lXtst.6.1 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libXtst.so.6.1 12:-lXaw.6.1 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libXaw.so.6.1 13:-lPEX5.6.0 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libPEX5.so.6.0 14:-lacl.2.0 => /usr/lib/aout/libacl.so.2.0 15:-lXp.6.2 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libXp.so.6.2 # ldconfig -elf -r /var/run/ld-elf.so.hints: search directories: /usr/X11R6/lib 0:-lICE.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6 1:-lPEX5.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libPEX5.so.6 2:-lSM.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6 3:-lX11.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 4:-lXIE.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXIE.so.6 5:-lXaw.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw.so.6 6:-lXext.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 7:-lXi.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXi.so.6 8:-lXmu.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmu.so.6 9:-lXp.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXp.so.6 10:-lXt.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6 11:-lXtst.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXtst.so.6 12:-loldX.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/liboldX.so.6 13:-lXpm.4 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXpm.so.4 # cat /etc/rc.conf ... ############################################################## ### Miscellaneous administrative options ################### ############################################################## ibcs2_enable="NO" # Ibcs2 (SCO) emulation loaded at startup (or NO). linux_enable="NO" # Linux emulation loaded at startup (or NO). rand_irqs="NO" # Stir the entropy pool (eg: "5 11" or NO). # aout compatibility libraries ldconfig_paths_aout="/usr/lib/compat /usr/X11R6/lib/aout /usr/lib/aout /usr/local/lib/aout" # elf library paths ldconfig_paths="/usr/lib /usr/local/lib /usr/X11R6/lib" ...

Ok, I first suggest a little how-to. http://www.aei.ca/~malartre/FAQ/how-to-ask-en.html Please, be patient: people are doing it for fun, and it's not IRC. - You don't say "which" release of FreeBSD. 2.2.8, 3.0.0, 3.1.0? - You don't say "where" it hang at boot. (Which device hang...) Show us the log. I would suggest you to create two boot floppies, using the instructions there: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html Section 2. and 3. You first boot with those boot floppies, and then select the CD-ROM has the media in the config (if it boot...) At the boot, choose the visual kernel config, and remove everything that's not useful, try everything. Keep only what's vital (including the ethernet card). If you succesfully boot, delete your old FreeBSD partition, make a new one, then select the novice install, choose the "kernel package" or something like that. It's something _without_ X-Window. Then install the port collections, and don't install packages. For the following section, note that FreeBSD provide "vi" and "ee". If you hate "vi", try "ee" which is really more easy(but less powerful:-). After that, you will have a clean system. Make sure it's connected to the net and: $ su Password: # cd /usr/ports/www/apache13 # make install clean ...Those command show the power of the port collection: it will fetch/patch/install/clean Apache... # cd /usr/local/etc/apache # vi httpd.conf ...make sure everything is right, and use ee if you hate vi... # cd /usr/local/sbin # ./httpd ...exec apache... You can do the same with XFree86 and a window manager... Xfree86 is located there: /usr/ports/x11/XFree86 Windows manager are there: /usr/ports/x11-wm/name_of_your_favorite_window_manager By the way, Xfree86 is the same for linux and FreeBSD. I think you will have trouble with both. And finally, it's not a good idea to add root in the ftp/telnet access. It's not secure. It's better to add your user in the wheel group (edit /etc/group and add your user's name to the wheel group: wheel:*:0:root,cam,malartre,dlc) and to telnet to your box under a user name and then to "su" to the root account: $ su Password: ...enter your root password... # Thank You -- [Malartre][malartre@aei.ca][French piss me off - Cartman, South Park] [The FreeBSD User Guide][http://www.aei.ca/~malartre/freebsd/] To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Feb 22 20: 1:51 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from corp.au.triax.com (slwag1p04.ozemail.com.au [203.108.157.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EE1C510E6F for ; Mon, 22 Feb 1999 20:01:43 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jim@corp.au.triax.com) Received: (from jim@localhost) by corp.au.triax.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id PAA14933; Tue, 23 Feb 1999 15:01:06 +1100 (EST) Date: Tue, 23 Feb 1999 15:01:05 +1100 From: Jim Mock To: patrick.henry@elstore.com Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: FreeBsd Message-ID: <19990223150105.B14889@corp.au.triax.com> Reply-To: jim@corp.au.triax.com References: <36D219A8.73293A55@elstore.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95.3i In-Reply-To: <36D219A8.73293A55@elstore.com> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Mon, 22 Feb 1999 at 20:59:53 -0600, Patrick E.

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 Greetings, I have a couple of quick questions... 1. How can one access an extended partition on the hdd. 2. Linux has a feature called ide-scsi which is a transport for programs like cdrecord to be able to use IDE CD-R and CD-RW burners. Is there such a beast in FreeBSD, or is there another solution that would work with IDE burners? 3. back in 2.2.x there was an interface to support a floppy tape (ft0) which I need to access my Iomega Ditto Easy 3200. I saw in some of the FreeBSD documentation that this is an unsupported feature, and was just wondering how to enable it. I am looking to switch over to FreeBSD from Linux permanently, and also get rid of Windows. So far 3.1 release has thouroughly impressed me both with speed and support for my somewhat unique system setup. Great Job to all that have worked on this project and keep up the good work!

There was a rash of people with this problem with PS/2 a few months ago. I was one of them. After much searching I managed to get a hold of the author of psm0 driver(Kazutaka YOKOTA ), and with some of the dmesg output from my system he was kind enought to get out a quick patch. I know the patch helped me and a few other people, but I had not heard many troubles lately and had assumed the patch or a better fix had been committed to 2.2.8. Could someone out there let me know if this was included in 2.2.8 or later? It's one of the things that makes me hesitant to move out of 2.2.7... that and I have no really good reason to change.

FreeBSD comes with sendmail installed. If you want, for some reason, to grab the latest sendmail, do this as root, # cd /usr/ports/mail # fetch ftp://ftp.sendmail.org/pub/sendmail/sendmail.8.9.3.tar.gz # tar xzf sendmail.8.9.3.tar.gz # cd sendmail-8.9.3 # make # make install And your new sendmail is installed. It is that easy. Then you probably want to make a custom configuration file, which is a lot more difficult. From where you are, # cd cf # more README And if you have more specific questions, try sendmail FAQs then come back to us. -- Crist J.

I've followed the PPP primer on FreeBSD's site. Trying to setup a gateway machine at home with ppp -auto -alias. If I run PPP interactively with my old settings, all works fine (settings are made for dynamic IP's). If I setup ppp.conf with the "bogus" info needed for -auto, as mentionned in the primer (makes sense since the program won't start without) and I try the script in interactive mode, it gives a few error messages (trying to get the server running so I can use pppctl, which still hasn't worked for me) it simply doesn't work at all. It sets the default route to the bogus address and doesn't change it to the actual address (ppp.linkup as per the primer, and is the same as for interactive mode). So now I've determined that the auto-mode settings don't work with the interactive mode. I've tried the auto mode using the above command (ppp -alias -auto autoMyISP) but when I try to connect to the net, nothing happens. I've tried ping, nslookup, ftp, Netscape, and nothing has triggered PPP to dial out. I've followed the primer to what I considered to be word for word, and for me it's not working right. What have I done wrong? I'm sure this has something to do with routing options. My firewall is set to open until I can debug this, and I've only tried connecting from the FreeBSD machine (rest of the LAN is Win98). I'll tackle the LAN once I get it to work on itsself...

Did you go into kernel configuration mode at bootup and disable everything you don't have/need? Someone posted a message a while ago about his CD-ROM causing it to lock up. Try disabling the IDE controller that the CD-ROM's attached to (if it's different from your hard drive), and see if it still hangs.

In /usr/src/gnu we create a file hierarchie, that reflects the placement of the imported stuff in contrib. There you also find the Makefiles in the Berkeley-make format. It's history, that you still find some sources in /usr/src/gnu. But people are clever and want to save work by waiting for a reason, before they start to nuke the stuff in /usr/src/gnu and reimport it under the contrib section. So you have some GNU sources in contrib and gnu, but it's merging to have every GNU source in the contrib section and only the "bmaked" Makefiles in src/gnu, that only point to the sources in contrib. I'll drop a copy of this into freebsd-questions, so this answer will be searchable via the mailing list ...

Then, create a /boot/loader.rc file with the following line: set root_disk_unit= Then, you'll be set. If you can't boot at all, hit Space bar at the waiting to boot message, and type: set root_disk_unit= boot You should get going then.

If you accomplish that properly, it will be a significant development for free software ;-) If you decide to continue under Win32, you want to use "Simple MAPI" to keep from mucking about with ActiveX/COM interfaces directly.

If that's possible. Check out www.winfiles.com or www.tucows.com for such a beast. BUT, having run both sides of the equation, setting up FreeBSD as the dial up server instead of Windows is much better in the long run. Granted, for me it was a bit hard at first diving directly into FreeBSD as I was, but since then my Windows machines have amazingly not crashed at all!

Unluckily, most every modem that Lucent makes that I know about is a Winmodem. Secondly, the older PNP stuff had problems with some of the PCI modems. I'm running a Jaton V.90 which is about as generic as you can get. For $50, I can't see you getting anything very good, but would recommend looking at Zoom modems over Supra or USR.

Usually IRQ or I/O address problems. Sometimes it's unreconized hardware. Also possible is that you may PNP OS enabled (or disabled) in the CMOS. For some reason that causes problems too, switching it to the other option works.

I'm currently running an Apache webserver on my FreeBSD box on my home LAN. The FreeBSD box is behind a gateway/firewall machine running Red Hat 5.0 with the 2.0.36 kernel. What I'm trying to do is redirect external http requests through my firewall to my webserver on my FreeBSD box. I'm trying to use ipfwadm on my linux box and the command I am using is: ipfwadm -F -a accept -b -P tcp -S 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65535 -D 192.168.1.4 80 When I try to access my webserver through the domain I have mapped to my gateway machine(borg.vamsi.net), I get a message saying 'A connection with the server cannot be established'. I know Apache is running on my FreeBSD box, because I can access it from my windows machine on my internal LAN. Is the ipfwadm command I'm using correct? I'm testing this out from my windows machine which is behind my firewall. Could this be causing the problem? I've tried flushing all the ipfwadm commands and then readding them. When I do 'ipfwadm -l -F', the output I get is: type prot source destination ports **** ****** ****** ************ ******* acc tcp anywhere 192.168.1.4 1024:65535 -> http acc/m all 192.168.1.0/24 anywhere n/a I'd appreciate any help you can give me.

Now I don't understand what you mean. If you speak of packages, it's another story. Packages are the precompiled ports from the ports collection. Packages (from ports) are always installed separately from the base OS (i.e.: /usr/local=$PREFIX). Sometimes people want to test new software before they put it into the main OS. The ports collection helps here, since it installs into a separate directory hierarchie. If for example xntp stops being a "moving target", this means, being hacked heavily, then it would be the time, to upgrade it into the main source tree. Then I think it would be imported under /usr/contrib, and under /usr/src/gnu you'd only find the "bmaked" Makefiles. > Although how filesystems should be subdivided/sorted is > probably a topic of holy wars... :) Hmmm, functionality, philosophie ;-) But better, you sort it out a bit, than to have the binarie mess on a Linux system. I hate it, that there is no Basic Linux OS, which is the Basis of every Linux... Therefore they differ so much *shudder*. If I read job offers and they speak of, Linux knowledges, I wonder which one they mean .... Debian, SuSE, DLD, RedHead, Caldera, which differ heavily I think.

It depends on who has the shell account and what userids they have access to. As for an assembler giving lots of power, this is Unix and you can do anything you need to do with an editor or any of the many interpreters on the system.

I'm in the process of upgrading one of my existing systems, in order that I can run FreeBSD. Although the system will be IDE based for the most part, I recognise that I'll need SCSI support for a tape drive (yet to be decided) and my Zip drive etc. I currently have an Adaptec 1515 which I'd like to use, but frankly I'm not clear if this device is fully supported. From what I can gather, it may work under FreeBSD 2.2.x, but probably won't under FreeBSD 3.x. In view of the above, I'd appreciate a little guidance here. Is the Adaptec 1515 a supported device and if so, under which releases of FreeBSD (bearing in mind that I'd like to go straight to FeeeBSD 3.1, if possible). As I suspect that support may an issue, I'm happy to go for an alternative low/medium cost device, and the Adaptec 2904 would seem to fit the bill, especially as it seems to be based on the 2940 chipset, which does appear to be fully supported under FreeBSD. Of course, it also is faster than my ageing 1515 and is PCI, all plus points. I have tried to search the mailing list archives at FreeBSD.org, but I keep getting advised that either the archives that I want to search aren't available, or that messages can't be retrieved. As I need to sort-out my hardware issues sooner rather than later, any assistance that anyone could offer to a FreeBSD newbie would be greatly appreciated.

In the first issue of FreeBSDzine there was an in-depth article about setting up e-mail which, amongst other things, covered using m4 to customize sendmail.cf.

It didn't help. As I suppose, this is not .cf problem. As usual we don't masquerade anything to permit "from" rewriting. That's _normal_ sendmail behaviour. Is that true? Why has it stopped doing that? A've tried masquerading as a last resort. But even masquerading can't help. p.s. once again: __It has appeared since I've cvsup'ed 2.2.6R - > 2.2.7C__ andy Kishington is real. The rest is done with mirrors.

I currently use 2.2.8 and have the config commands necessary to setup my modem and soundcard in /kernel.config and ``options USERCONFIG_BOOT'' in my kernel so that it's not necessary to re-enter all the settings with ``boot -c'' if I make a new kernel. When I u/g to 3.1 (when the CDs arrive) can I just copy /kernel.config to /boot/kernel.conf, edit the /boot/boot/conf as you describe and it will work as it does now?

For all people who replied to "why does it hang?": Thank you but it was a problem with my CD-ROM model and there was nothing written on the screen when the computer hung. Just a blue background with "Probing for devices ..." in a black box in the middle. OK. I have version 3.0 of freebsd and I updated Xwindows to support my video card. Now I followed all instructions on the screen and tried various resolutions but all I get when I start it is a black screen with the edges of shell windows showing up. Sometimes I can exit when I just type exit. The mouse works and a menu shows up when I hit the left mouse button which disappears when I try to click the options listed. Please help.

Since he wants to edit files in place, the correct tool is ed -- that way you avoid all the silly creation of the .out files and the subsequent renaming: for f in db.* ; do ed -s $f < edfile ; done And edfile is something like this: /MX 10 mail.my.domain/s//MX 10 newmail.my.domain/ wq Of course, for both the sed and ed solutions, the actual REs that you use will probably have to be a little more complex, since it's not at all likely that you could rely on the files being so consistent as these trivial examples show. But that's just an exercise. -- 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 23 3:31:44 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 241A410EA7 for ; Tue, 23 Feb 1999 03:31:35 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 19983 invoked by uid 1001); 23 Feb 1999 11:10:02 -0000 Message-ID: <19990223111002.19982.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, 23 Feb 1999 21:10:02 +1000 From: Greg Black To: Gustavo Vieira G C Rios Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: assembly References: <003001be5e98$8af7fb20$0200000a@danco.home> <36D1BAB6.BB3F8701@netshell.vicosa.com.br> In-reply-to: <36D1BAB6.BB3F8701@netshell.vicosa.com.br> of Mon, 22 Feb 1999 17:14:46 -0300 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 believe (i am sorry if i am wrong, but i am a beginner)! > If i use assembly i do not need to read a file via read API, i can > access the HD directly, without to check for access permissions, right ? You're a self-confessed beginner, and you keep coming back with questions, but now you say you don't believe the answers. So why waste our time and yours by asking? As others have said, you are wrong. Unix is not DrOS. > If so, i can hack a UNIX system (no matter which) using assembly! If you're so sure of this, why don't you have a go and see how you get on? But you might as well save yourself the effort ... > Am i wrong ? Yes, yes, yes. Have a look around, find some recommendations, then go and look for some decent introductory books in the areas of Unix that you'd like to learn about first. When you feel comfortable with those aspects of the system, repeat the process in another area. Keep repeating this until you have covered it all. Then start over with the first set and do it all again because you'll learn a lot more the second time around. If you run into things along the way that you'd like help with, then by all means come back here with your questions. But do try to avoid telling us that you don't believe the answers, at least if you don't have any basis for not believing them. -- 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 23 3:45: 3 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from gold.ocn.ne.jp (gold.ocn.ne.jp [203.139.160.167]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E17AD10E9A for ; Tue, 23 Feb 1999 03:44:59 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from t198152@gold.ocn.ne.jp) Received: from default by gold.ocn.ne.jp (8.9.1a/OCN) id UAA04848; Tue, 23 Feb 1999 20:44:56 +0900 (JST) Message-ID: <000001be5f22$90fd51c0$22b8a3d2@default> From: "skuyline" To: Subject: =?iso-2022-jp?B?GyRCI1gbKEJ3aW5kb3cbJEIkThsoQlNldHVwGyRCJEskRCQkJEYbKEI=?= =?iso-2022-jp?B?GyRCISMbKEI=?= Date: Tue, 23 Feb 1999 20:48:47 +0900 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_0007_01BE5F6D.E9382F40" X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3110.5 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0007_01BE5F6D.E9382F40 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-2022-jp" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit $B#P#C#9#8#2#1#V#1#6#6$r!";H$C$F$$$k$N$G$9$,!"#X#F#9#8#S(Betup$B$r$l(Btextbox$B$NCf$K@_Dj$7(B $B$^$7$?!#(B $B!!!!!!!!!!!!!!2rA|EY$O!$#6#4#0!v#4#0#0!$#8#b#p#p(B $B!!!!!!!!!!!!!!>e$NFs$D$O!"%G%#%9%W%l%$$N;EMM$NDL$j$G$9!#(B FreeBSD$B$O!"#2!%#2!%#8$G$9!#(B $BBP=hJ}$NJ,$+$kJ}!"$I$&$>$h$m$7$/$*4j$$$7$^$9!#(B ------=_NextPart_000_0007_01BE5F6D.E9382F40 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-2022-jp" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

(or if anyone knows a good web site with simple steps to take for freebsd) thanks for any help.... marko@websorcery.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Feb 23 6: 3:56 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from wdcrobims01.ed.gov (wdcrobims01.ed.gov [165.224.216.147]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9CE4010E6F for ; Tue, 23 Feb 1999 06:03:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Clarence_Griffin@ed.gov) Received: by wdcrobims01.ed.gov with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0) id <17MQQVJ2>; Tue, 23 Feb 1999 09:03:49 -0500 Message-ID: <416C351C579FD211B2B200062B001FF03AF4DA@wdcfb6exc01.ed.gov> From: "Griffin, Clarence" To: 'Ladd J Epp' , FreeBSD Questions Cc: "'bluebeard@bluebeard.com'" Subject: RE: PPP Routing Question Date: Tue, 23 Feb 1999 09:03:52 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Whow the same thing is happening to me.

In short, I have never been able to get PPP to route. Ever. Tell me what I'm doing wrong. In FreeBSD it seems easy enough to me. I start by typing: ppp ... and then I go into terminal mode to connect to the terminal server. I dial in, authorize myself, and then start the PPP session. 'ppp' detects this and takes over. So far so good. Now I type (within 'ppp'): add default HISADDR And now everything should route and be running great, right? Well, not exactly. I am unable to ping any address outside of my computer. The packets go out but they never return (I can verify this by looking at my modem lights). The odd thing is that I can FTP anywhere in the world and everything works fine for about a minute or so... and then FTP locks up and I can't do anything. Has anyone seen this happen before? It's not OS specific (as far as flavors of Unix or Linux) because I've had the same problems in Debian (which I have long since blown away for this very reason). I would love to get my hands dirty with FreeBSD but I can't do much without some type of network connection. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

The basic configuration works fine. We are able to connect with the client, read and write mail. *FANTASTIC*. It was pretty painless. Now, I'm trying to establish APOP. I have read the APOP installation instructions, followed them to a tee. When I try to use popauth to init, I get an error saying missing file - *??*. Then if I try to add a user, I get an error indicating something about not having permissions to open the db. When I look the db has been created. In addition, I am in the root account when perfoming the install. I am specifiing the account "POP" as the pop auth account. The db is to be located in the /etc directory. I did a search on the net, and found some people who reported having the same problem. Unfortunately, I found no reference to what the solution may be. If anyone has seen this b4, I would greatly appreciate any input. JEEZ, I hope I'm not goofing something simple up. In addition, I would like suggestions on a good pop password change server. I have references to a couple, but what is the *standard* used? Many of the accounts on the system are not login accounts.

Perhaps you have a virtual desktop that is larger than the resolution you are running at. This confused me at first. If your virtual desktop is 800x600, but you are running at 640x480, then you are only seeing part of the desktop. Try pressing ctrl+alt+plus key on kepad; or ctrl+alt+minus key on keypad. This changes your resolution "on the fly" if your configuration allows it. If that doesn't work, you may have to look at your XF86Config file. Find the screens section, and look for lines that start with "Modes". Note the first resolution listed. Then check for another line that starts with "Virtual". This sets your virtual desktop size. Change it to match the first resolution in the modes line.

You need to enable the Berkley Packet Filter in the kernel. pseudo-device bpf 4 <-- put something like that in your kernel config file (check in LINT to be sure). There's 2 kinds of dhcp clients available, one is wide-dhcp (I use that one), the the other is called I think isc2-dhcp (or something similar). Both are ports.

You'll need to get a commercial server cert from Verisign or Thawte (my preference is Thawte) if you don't want your users to get worrisome security messages when they go to your pages. If you can deal with the security messages, you can generate and sign your own certificate. As far as generating secure pages, they are the same as standard HTML forms. The only difference is that the end-user browser knows to enable encryption/decryption for communication with the web server.

What version of FreeBSD are you running? My 2.2.x machines have a 'check_quota' variable to set in the /etc/rc.conf.

To answer your question, I installed the binaries as directed in http://www.xfree86.org/3.3.3.1/RELNOTES11.html#11 At that point, the only things on the machine were FreeBSD 3.1-STABLE and XFree86 3.3.3.1. It was at this point that I tried to install Netscape 4.5. Originally, I got an error when running netscape that a particular shared library could not be found. If I remember correctly, it was libXt.so.6.1. Anyway, I updated /etc/rc.local and ldconfig as shown in my previous post, and the result is the new error message(below). At this point, I'd like to know if this can be resolved without re-installing XFree86 from source. It is implied in the instructions for XFree86 that the a.out shared libraries are included with the binary release, but perhaps this in not the case? If the recommendation is to reinstall from source, that's what I'll do. However, is there documentation available on how to do this properly so that the shared libraries are installed?

That could be just about anything. Can you try running the script from the command line on the machine? It could be a string that is missing a ", or a ;, or some similar syntax error. the premature end of script headers (in my experience) has usually been a pretty simple error in the code. um, not that i've ever done that or anything :) brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Feb 23 10:47:27 1999 Delivered-To: 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 (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8D19911444 for ; Tue, 23 Feb 1999 10:46:52 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from cjc@cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com) Received: (from cjc@localhost) by cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com (8.9.3/8.8.8) id NAA26852; Tue, 23 Feb 1999 13:48:18 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from cjc) From: "Crist J.

Because we can administer FreeBSD systems the HP-UX way and those admins who only know HP-UX will feel comfortable with FreeBSD. Seriously, a poke the screen with a mouse administration tool will give FreeBSD a level of parity with Red Hat in the eyes of new windows users.

For example, right now (from repquota -a) I have soft quotas totalling 4062400 and hard quotas totalling 4382800, but the file system from df -i shows 4168505 in 1k blocks. 2) Should the sum of all the block limits used by users in repquota -a (shows 2887728) be equal to the number of blocks used (1K blocks) in a df -i output (shows 2871052)? What would the difference be? TIA for any assistance.

The only reference to serial ports sio or otherwise is a reference to cuaa0 as the mouse port. I do have my old 14.4K modem which works fine still on cuaa1. Thanks for your help so far. Cheers!

My machine already has Windows-NT, DOS, Linux installed on it. I tried to install FreeBSD at the last primary partition which is 1.4Gig. Everthing went soomthly except when I reboot the machine and let system commander to choose the partion labeled as BSD to boot from, I got the "read error" message and the system hangs. My question is: (1) Does the order of installation affect the co-existence of these OSs? (2) Do we have to put FreeBSD at the front of the disk? The machine has Award V4.51 PG modular BIOS. I am using PM 3.02. When I installed FreeBSD, I choose "leave the MBR intact".

What do your /usr/lib/libcrypt* links point to? They should point to /usr/lib/libdescrypt* to make DES passwords the default.

I believe /etc/auth.conf configures the use of Kerberos for /usr/bin/login and /usr/bin/su. /etc/pam.conf, a new configuration file (that should subsume /etc/auth.conf someday), configures which PAM modules are used for authentication, but that shouldn't affect /usr/bin/passwd.

Now I'm not one to accuse someone of being too cautious, but you're worried about having less than 1 GB on a 4.5 GB drive?

The -i option shows the number of inodes that are free... Is that really a concern? Those numbers seem reasonable. If a huge portion of your users decided to fill up to the hard limit at once, you could potentially fill the disk. However, only you can weigh the likelyhood of that occuring versus the added advantage the users get by having a little more breathing space between the hard and soft limit. > 2) Should the sum of all the block limits used by users in repquota -a > (shows 2887728) be equal to the number of blocks used (1K blocks) in a df > -i output (shows 2871052)? What would the difference be? Do the system users (root, bin mainly) have quotas? Do users without quotas show in the totals? (I'm really asking, I dunno.) That's about 16 MB. Is there one (or a few) normal user who got left off a list somewhere? > TIA for any assistance. Glad to help. I'd like to hear anyone's experience with quotas. They are marked as broken in 2.2.x, but I'm thinking of installing them any way on a mailserver to keeps some problems I've had from reoccuring. -- Crist J.

I'm sure your readers will find it very helpful since they can learn: * How to use Search Engine Optimization (SEO) to build targeted traffic. * Effective Web design * Breaking news of portal development I am following up to see if you are interested in using the information about I-Search at FreeBSD as content? Please let me know if I can help. Thanks, Tasha Henderson, Media Relations, MMG http://www.mmgusa.com P.S. Here's a copy of the press release: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Marshall Simmonds Chief Search Engine Strategist, MMG mailto:mds@mmgco.com http://www.mmgusa.com I-Search: http://www.audettemedia.com/i-search I-Search Celebrates 100th Issue Bend, OR -- February 18, 1999 (MMG) -- I-Search Digest, an e-mail discussion list covering search engine optimization (SEO), celebrates its 100th issue this week. Launched one year ago, I-Search currently boasts over 4,000 members and is growing at a rate of 100 newcomers per week. The twice-weekly free e-mail publication covers: -- SEO strategies and techniques -- Effective Web design -- Portal news and developments Detailed discussions frequently focus on Yahoo!, Alta Vista, Excite, Hot Bot, Infoseek, Lycos, and Web Crawler; plus international, pay-per click and specialized search engines. “One of the great things about the digest is that the members' Web design expertise ranges from beginner to expert,” said Marshall Simmonds, I-Search moderator. Simmonds is also chief search engine strategist for online marketing firm MMG . "The members create the backbone of the digest. They share experiences and offer advice that is beneficial to other readers." According to the latest GVU study , 85% of those surveyed use search engines to find Web pages. In addition, Search Engine Watch reports that 80% of all user sessions start at a search engine. The goal with search engine optimization is to have a site place as high as possible in response to a query for identified keyword phrases. All search engines use fixed criteria in their indexing process, however they are all different and they change the methods they use to evaluate relevancy with frequently. With knowledge of the criteria used by each, it is possible to configure a Web page so as to optimize where it places in the list of query results.

I've installed Apache 1.3.4, which I've compiled from source, on a FreeBSD 2.2.8-RELEASE system. The server is running from inetd and tcp_wrappers. The problem is, it will intermittantly terminate with a SIGALRM. Bascially, the server will randomly, instead of sending the requested html to the requesting browser, send a blank page with the words "Alarm clock." It will usually do this several times in a row, and then start working again, for no apparent reason. Looking through the Apache source this string appears to be a SIGALRM: http_main.c: ap_sys_siglist[SIGALRM] = "Alarm clock"; My question, I suppose, is what causes a SIGALRM? Has anyone ever seen this before? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I have read references about updating bootblocks and aout-to-elf makes, and several other things. I've looked at the few web sites I could find and while they are helpful, they are not complete. So my question is, step-by-step, how do I successfully upgrade from 2.2.8 to 3.1-RELEASE? And also, does "make upgrade" work yet? and if so are there any additional steps I need to take on top of that? If there is a web site, FAQ, etc... that someone can point me to I am more than happy to look. Also, is there anything in the works to add this to the FAQ?

You don't need to install it: if you download the boot floppies and try to boot, you should be able to see whether it finds the CD-ROM drive. If not, you should enter a bug report with all details, in particular the chip set of your mother board and the exact description of your CD-ROM.

Only the most basic email memo can come through and there's no way to deal with attachments. :-( The Exchange Inbox was very different from the mbx format last time I looked at it (about two years ago).

Have a look at the man page for du (disk usage) especially the option to not traverse mount points - this is so that you can look exclusively at the root partition (the one that's full in your case) and not be confused with the details of the other partitions (/usr, /home, or any others that you might have). What directory/ies were you compiling in? Sometimes the MAKEFILE has a make clean option that will remove all the temporary files created during the compile - this allows you to clean up all the left over mess (object files, etc) created during the compile that are no longer needed. -- Regards | _/\_/\ Andrew Johns BSc (Comp Sci) | / \ TurnAround Solutions Pty Ltd | \_...__/ http://www.turnaround.com.au/ | \/ "The box said 'Requires Windows 95, NT, or better,' so I installed FreeBSD."

If you installed the ports when you installed FreeBSD then: % su # cd /usr/ports/www/netscape45-communicator # make install # make clean will download and install Netscape 4.5 for you.

On a fresh install of 3.0 from Feb 8, it ID's an NTFS partition as ????. But on this system which has been upgraded incrementally from 2.1.5 (now running 3.0, ELF, from Jan 31) it actually says, "NTFS" for the NT partition. > > Or there is one way to boot FreeBSD from NT bootmanager only? > > Sure. See the FAQ: http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ122.html Yeah, but its easier than falling out of bed to boot NT from BootEasy. Just let the FreeBSD installer install boot blocks for you. On this system which says, "NTFS", there wasn't an NT partition on it when FreeBSD was installed. On the 2nd (newer) system NT was installed first. -- 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.

I suggest you use cdrecord from the ports rather than wormcontrol. The important thing is the makecdfs.sh script for running mkisofs (also from the ports). Its also covered in the FAQ somewhere.

I checked my ppp.conf and the only extra thing I have is ``set ctsrts on'' in the default section. Perhaps you can try adding that?

That depends on the kind of object file you have. XENIX had a whole lot of different object files. You can execute COFF files with the SCO iBCS emulator, but you're pretty much out of luck for x.out files or 16 bit files, which are closer to Microsoft format. > A quick answer may offer a choice of new UNIX OS.

This doesn't really qualify as an in-depth technical discussion, so I'm moving it to -questions. LKMs have gone away in 3.1, though support for them remains. They've been replaced by klds, for which unfortunately not much documentation exists. I'm attaching something that is going into a revised version of ``The Complete FreeBSD''. Greg Kernel loadable modules _______________________ Older versions of FreeBSD supplied Loadable Kernel Modules or LKMs, object files which could be loaded and executed in the kernel while the kernel was running. We discussed them in passing on page 294. The ELF kernel and the new bootstrap of FreeBSD version 3 allow you to load additional modules at boot time. To do so, however, the format of the modules needed to be changed. To avoid (too much) confusion, the name changed from loadable kernel module to kernel loadable module (kld). FreeBSD still supports LKMs as well, so klds are stored in a different directory and loaded and unloaded by different programs: Table E-1. Differences between LKMs and klds +---------------+-----------+-----------+ |Parameter | LKM | kld | +---------------+-----------+-----------+ |Directory | /lkm | /modules | |Load program | modload | kldload | |Unload program | modunload | kldunload | |List program | modstat | kldstat | +---------------+-----------+-----------+ Some other details have changed as well. kldload knows an internal path for finding klds, so you don't need to specify the path. It also assumes that the name of the kld ends in .ko, and you don't need to specify that either. For example, to load the Linux emulator as an LKM, you might have entered: # modload /lkm/linux_mod.o To load the kld, you could enter: # kldload linux -- See complete headers for address, home page and phone numbers finger grog@lemis.com for PGP public key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Feb 23 18:29: 0 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from allegro.lemis.com (allegro.lemis.com [192.109.197.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C9DCE11662 for ; Tue, 23 Feb 1999 18:28:47 -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 MAA20898; Wed, 24 Feb 1999 12:58:45 +1030 (CST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.3/8.9.0) id MAA52301; Wed, 24 Feb 1999 12:58:45 +1030 (CST) Message-ID: <19990224125845.W93492@lemis.com> Date: Wed, 24 Feb 1999 12:58:45 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: Erik Umenhofer , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: X11 and related applications References: <36D2E960.69100719@silcom.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93.2i In-Reply-To: <36D2E960.69100719@silcom.com>; from Erik Umenhofer on Tue, Feb 23, 1999 at 05:46:08PM +0000 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 Tuesday, 23 February 1999 at 17:46:08 +0000, Erik Umenhofer wrote: > Recently My applications began to take literially 3 minutes to load. > > Here's an example.

I have read and followed the directions for the installation that comes with the StarOffice tar file.

I have even tried to manually install the glibc Linux libs that come with StarOffice but this doesn't seem to help. I am trying to run the setup script by just going to a $ prompt and typing: $ ./setup Am I doing something wrong? What are the steps I need to go thru to install and run StarOffice?

The latest version is 3.1. 3.0 was a "first cut" at version 3. Since you have it, there's no reason to go "back" to 2.2.8.

I disable all the unwanted devices, and tweak the IRQ and IO of my net card, and the kernel then boots fine. Lovely! The problem is next time I boot (without running userconfig), all the devices become enabled again, and the IRQ/IO settings are lost. This used to work on 3.0-RELEASE and earlier (ie. the settings were remembered). What gives? Where are the settings stored? This is the steps that I perform to run userconfig: The system starts with the BTX loader 1.0 (whatever that is, it's new). Then I get a 10 second counter, which I interrupt by pressing a key Then I enter 'boot -c' at the prompt (This took a bit of working out). Lastly I type 'visual' when I get the userconfig prompt. Up comes the familliar fullscreen userconfig program.

I've checked! This is the setup: I have the 3.1-RELEASE dist on a CD-R which I downloaded and burnt myself. I can't install directly from the CD because the problem machine doesn't have a CDROM. I did test the CD on another machine with a CDROM an it installed just fine - no problem with the CD. I have also tried a few different FTP servers on my LAN. I have tried war-ftpd and alex-ftp on a Win98 machine, and also the standard ftpd on another 2.2.7-RELEASE machine on the LAN. sysinstall fails the same way each time. In the past, I've installed 2.2.7-RELEASE the same way on this machine without any incident. Anyone know what's up?

If it is a problem with the bootstrapper finding your partition, you can tell BootEasy where to look at the 'boot:' prompt. If you did not install BootEasy as your bootstrap, boot off of a FreeBSD bootfloppy. At the boot prompt, I believe you would specify the secondary slave IDE drive as (someone catch me if I mess it up), 1:wd(3,a) This should boot the kernel, then you can make the modifications suggested. -- Crist J.

In the middle of a routine file editing, I noticed some weird messages: /kernel: swap_pager: suggest more swap space : 253MB . ./kernel: swap_pager: suggest more swap space: 253MB Soon after my X environment froze and I couldn't exit without having to power cycle my standalone PC. After the system came back up i tried again to establish my X session and as soon as X came up the problem started again and this time more strange messages: /kernel: sio0: 14 more tty-level buffer overflows (total 14) /kernel: sio0: 57 more tty-level buffer overflows (total 71) /kernel: sio0: 84 more tty-level buffer overflows (total 155) . . . ./kernel: sio0: 5 more tty-levol buffer overflows (total 583) My system is a Pentium II (350 Mhz) with 128MB and about 120MB swap. As i mentioned, this is a standalone PC and there were no jobs running on the system as far as i know. Any pointers/suggestions will be highly appreciated. Thanks Nesi.

Also, where can you download the 3.1 release for the Alpha? I have looked, but can only find the Intel release. Thanks a bunch for you help. It does not go unappreciated -philip "Johnny Corporate" ps, also, how stable is the Alpha port? THANKS!!

Two hints: 1. Use the -w option in the first line: #! /usr/bin/perl -w From the perl man page: "Whenever you get mysterious behavior, try the -w switch!!! Whenever you don't get mysterious behavior, try using -w anyway." This will give you more informative error messages. 2.

Date: Wed, 24 Feb 1999 02:31:49 -0800 From: Richard Johnson Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm thinking seriously of buying a Libretto 110CT and installing FreeBSD on it. I'd like to have a small DOS/Windows98 partition and then use the rest of the disk for FreeBSD. (I did this with my AST laptop and it worked just fine.) I've read that neither FreeBSD nor Linux have drivers which allow access to the Libretto PCMCIA Floppy disk, however, so I'm a little concerned about how I would get it installed. I'm thinking that probably I could to the following: 1) Use Windoze98 to defragment the disk 2) Use FIPS to split the disk and allocate a partition for FreeBSD 3) Copy all of the FreeBSD installation files I need into my DOS partition 4) Boot the FreeBSD floppy 5) Install from the DOS partition Would this plan work? I would think I could still boot from the FreeBSD boot floppy eventhough I wouldn't be able to access it once FreeBSD is running, right? Please email me directly since I'm not on this mailing list. If there is sufficient interest, I'll send a summary.

I also made sure I loaded the sound effects bank from a windows installation (synthgm.sbk). I encountered two problems. The first, the most annoying, is the fact that drvmidi will not play anything.

Can't think of a reason why. Some may say that when you go into single user mode, having the non-default root shell will cause a problem; but FreeBSD will prompt you for which shell to use when you go to single-user mode (in which case I'd go with the default /bin/sh).

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 Greetings! I have a small problem. Somehow, in the process of swapping out some hard drives, I seem to have broken the "at" command. Some of my users have griped about it, because they (like me, actually) use it to send themselves reminder notes, and it's a heck of a lot easier than using cron to set up a one-time job and then remembering to delete the cron job again. Whenever something tries to run with atrun, I get this in my logs: Feb 24 00:30:00 dreamhaven atrun[19405]: cannot create output file: Permission denied I have no idea where "at" is trying to create its output file. My best guess is /var/at, and I suspect there's a permissions problem somewhere, but I don't know what the permissions should be. Here's what I have: [61]root@dreamhaven:/var # ls -d at drwxr-xr-x 4 root wheel 512 Feb 8 11:24 at/ [62]root@dreamhaven:/var # cd at [63]root@dreamhaven:/var/at # ls total 2 -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 0 Dec 25 01:15 at.deny drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Feb 24 00:26 jobs/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Dec 25 01:15 spool/ I've tried changing the permissions on the "jobs" and "spool" directories to 777, but to no avail. If anyone has a suggestion, I'd sure love to hear it! It's probably just something stupid that I've overlooked. P.S. If you reply to the list, please also include my personal address in your reply, as I will see it much faster.

Anything you can do in assembler you can do in C. the protection is not in the C compiler, is in the way the cpu runs your programs. in unix, the kernel runs in a higher level of protection than user programs. this means that some instruction are priviledged and can only be executed by the kernel. if you write a program in assembler that tries to write directly to the hard drive without using the system call interface (API as you called it) the cpu will say "hey! this is a priviledged operation this user program is trying to execute, better check what the kernel has to say about it" and inform the kernel via a trap. the kernel will happily kill your process. end of story. as i said before, get a book about OS's and CA. regards, -oscar To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Feb 24 15:47: 1 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from serenity.mcc.ac.uk (serenity.mcc.ac.uk [130.88.200.93]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B8BD814C22 for ; Wed, 24 Feb 1999 15:46:55 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Networks.Manager@rncm.ac.uk) Received: from fs1.rncm.ac.uk ([193.63.96.100]) by serenity.mcc.ac.uk with esmtp (Exim 1.92 #2) for FreeBSD-Questions@freebsd.org id 10Fcvw-0003Qd-00; Wed, 24 Feb 1999 11:56:56 +0000 Received: from RNCM-FS1/MAILQUEUE by fs1.rncm.ac.uk (Mercury 1.44); 24 Feb 99 11:54:30 GMT Received: from MAILQUEUE by RNCM-FS1 (Mercury 1.44); 24 Feb 99 11:54:11 GMT Received: from rncm.ac.uk (193.63.96.102) by fs1.rncm.ac.uk (Mercury 1.44) with ESMTP; 24 Feb 99 11:54:04 GMT Received: from RNCM-FS3/SpoolDir by rncm.ac.uk (Mercury 1.44); 24 Feb 99 11:56:29 GMT Received: from SpoolDir by RNCM-FS3 (Mercury 1.44); 24 Feb 99 11:56:20 GMT Received: from brick (193.63.96.36) by rncm.ac.uk (Mercury 1.44); 24 Feb 99 11:56:18 GMT From: "Peter McGarvey" To: "FreeBSD Questions" Subject: Q: FreeBSD -> SQL Server with ODBC Date: Wed, 24 Feb 1999 11:56:16 -0000 Message-ID: <000001be5fec$af1d34c0$24603fc1@brick.it-dept.rncm.ac.uk> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook 8.5, Build 4.71.2232.26 Importance: Normal X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Okay, I've got a little 486SX running FreeBSD 2.2.5 which has so far managed to blow the socks of a P233 running WindowsNT. The Windows NT machine is used to run the college webserver, and is unbeleivably slow and flaky. The FreeBSD box is something I'm playing with at home, and is marginally faster than the NT machine - it's also rock solid. My plan is to ditch Windows NT and replace it with FreeBSD. Okay, so I won't have a fancy GUI but at least I won't have to stroll accross the office every time I want to tweak a setting. Besides, I've never did understand why a server needs to use 90% of it's resources just to give the administrator a nice screen to look at when it craps out. Unfortunately, my master plan has hit a slight snag. You see in order to get away with it everything has to seemingly work like it did before. This oviously gave rise to some problems. Most of these probelms were easily solved. However one remains.... We also have another NT machine running SQL Server. The current WebServer is able to query the SQL server via ODBC using a perl module (WIN32::ODBC). So, I need to access the SQL Server in a similar manner. I did some looking around and came to the conclusion that ODBC on FreeBSD was indeed possible. Having previously installed Perl5, I downloaded and attempted to install the following perl modules: DBI-1.06.tar.gz DBD-ODBC-0.20.tar.gz The first installed okay, the second started moaning about driver managers and drivers. I'm new-ish to FreeBSD and to unix and unfortunately I'm at the limit of my knowlege. Can some kind person take pity and give me some help? T.I.A.

It isn't a bug in gated I think since the packet stream gets initialised by kicking it into promiscuous mode like ye said. This is a driver problem.

Most frequently people have root (/) and usr (/usr) partitions and probably more. If you have some sort of disk problem and only can mount /, you will only have access to shells in /bin. In the standard FreeBSD distribution, sh and csh come in /bin, the others are ports that will end up in /usr/local/bin by default. Those will not be there if /usr is not mounted. In addition, since they are ports (and have a lot more bells and whistles), I think some people feel they are less secure than the standard sh and csh. If your want to be able to use bash or tcsh when you use root, standard FreeBSD has a 'Bourne Again User,' 'toor' (as in Bourne Again Shell, bash... ha... ha...). 'toor' is meant to be given a fancy shell, a neat-o custom environment, while 'root' keeps a low key, simple setup for emergency use. Anyway, those would be my motives and thoughts. HTH. -- Crist J.

I've tried a couple of the 'rippers' in the ports collection. 'tosha' produces .wav files with a lot of 'stuttering' in them (which doesn't seem to be an artifact of the CD I'm using, since different tracks from different CDs have the same problem. 'cdd' prints some opening info (a track listing, and so on) before failing with CDIOREADAUDIO: Permission denied which I don't see listed in cd(4). I'm not sure how this is a permissions problem, since I'm trying this as root. The permissions in /dev are brw-r----- 1 root operator 6, 2 Jan 31 1998 /dev/cd0c crw------- 1 root wheel 15, 0x20000000 Jan 31 1998 /dev/rcd0.ctl crw-r----- 1 root operator 15, 2 Jan 31 1998 /dev/rcd0c It's a SCSI CD drive, the appropriate lines from dmesg(8) are ncr0 rev 3 int a irq 10 on pci0:12:0 ...

Other CD operations (mounting filesystems, playing audio CDs through the sound card, and so on) work with no problems, and no excessive jitter. A search through the mailing list archives hasn't shown up anyone with the same problem, just recommendations to try 'tosha' or 'cdd', and these no other messages with "CDIOREADAUDIO" according to the archives.

Well, the problem lies in the overal program. The SCSI sublayer of FreeBSD is substantially different from Linux'. Starting from 3.0 and onwards we use CAM (/usr/src/sys/cam). Else it was /usr/src/sys/scsi I think. For all my knowledge goes I think yer really in for a major task. Hope this point ye into a direction a little bit. --- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven http://www.freebsdzine.org> asmodai(at)wxs.nl The idea does not replace the work...

The NICs will have to have an IP address bound to each one and IP uses an IP address for its targetting of packets (and ethernet frames use the MAC address for this). Since the two cards both differ on this point one card will simply ignore packets destined for the other card and vice versa.

FreeBSD 2.2.x is a.out only, so I don't think ye will be able to get yer hands on ld-elf.so.1 (which according to the name is an ELF library).

Yep it would no longer fit onto just one floppy, so it was made to fit on 2.88 Meg floppy drives and LS-120 drives. For those of us with standard 1.44 Meg floppies use the kern.flp and mfsroot.flp.

Where would I go looking for tips on whether this file loaded properly and what errors it encountered if it didn't?

I think I might have been responsible for that rumour. The background was that with some other operating systems, you don't get a prompt, and if in single-user mode you try to start a shell which requires dynamic libraries in /usr/lib, it will just die on you. But as you say, you get prompted, so it's not a problem with FreeBSD. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

You need to use an appropriate shell. It looks to me as if you're using the Bourne shell, which is not the most appropriate, but it can do command history. Try: $ set -o emacs You can put this in your .profile file. Of course, under Linux you probably had bash, and you can install that too, from the packages on the first CD-ROM. Change your shell with the chsh command. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

Have you tried using a boot floppy and attempting to mount the hard disk partition containing your FreeBSD installation? This might give an indication as to whether your machine's BIOS or System Commander doesn't like the FreeBSD partition or there's some other problem. > My question is: (1) Does the order of installation affect the co-existence > of these OSs? It is usually best to install MS products first, because they have the nasty tendency of deleting any reference to non-MS products from the MBR. Otherwise no. > (2) Do we have to put FreeBSD at the front of the disk? The only thing that comes to mind is that there is/was a requirement that bootable partitions (or perhaps the OS boot code at least) had to be within the first 1024 cylinders. Depending on the BIOS settings, some BIOSes remap drive geometries so that the whole disk appears to unsophisticated boot code/OSes to have <=1024 cylinders, which avoids the problem. I don't know whether System Commander is capable of working around such BIOS limitations. You also don't say how big the drive is - if its greater than 8.4GB (which will remap to >255 heads with 1024 cylinders) then its not inconceivable this might be part of your problem. FreeBSD 2.2.8 itself will not have any problems with such a large drive though. -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."

You don't, you use tcsh instead. However, if you are going to use tcsh, you might as well use bash. What you really should do is not use root except when you have to. csh does have a history mechanism, '!!' is the previous command, '!-2' second to last, '!23' is the 23rd since the shell was spawned, '!ls' is the last one to start with the string 'ls,' etc. etc., plus you can do editing.

I'd be *most* grateful. Shouldn't be that hard: /etc/exports /dir1 machine1 /dir2 machine2 /dir3/dir4 machine2 That's basically it for the exports file.

But let's try to keep it objective: FreeBSD has Linux emulation so a lot of Linux only packages can run on FreeBSD. I myself find FreeBSD a better integrated whole than any distribution of Linux. The same goes for the sources and the people who write these sources, I find them more competent not only on the programming issue but they also have to maintain a very stable whole. I'm a little unsure how Linux' NFS and VM are nowadays, but I know that FreeBSD just made a tremendous number of changes in this aspect, all for the better. If ye are still in doubt, try both.

I don't think that should matter, files are written to jobs as the invoking user which implies root privilege plus, [162:/var/at] ls -l `which at` -r-sr-xr-x 4 root bin 20480 Jul 22 1998 /usr/bin/at And you never said 'at' didn't work. As for permissions at job execution, the atrun is started by cron in /etc/crontab. The line is, #minute hour mday month wday who command # */5 * * * * root /usr/libexec/atrun Correct? I must say I'm a bit confused myself. I wanted to do some test 'at's so I loaded some up, but none of them ran.

Absolutely, yes! Check out the FAQ at http://www.mit.edu/afs/sipb/user/xiphmont/cdparanoia/ Paranoia is the best program I've ever come across for getting good, clean rips out of darn near any drive you can lay your hands on. I've used it to pull tracks off of drives that nothing else would work with, and from drives that supposedly aren't capable of ripping. I'd be delighted to see a FreeBSD port of Paranoia, and as far as I'm concerned, it completely obsoletes those other rippers.

Possibly, but we're not there yet. Let me rephrase: You want to slow the net down to a crawl in order to trace a problem. For every *packet* that you send out on the Ethernet, you want an arp request. For example: 15:42:22.597876 arp who-has yana.lemis.com tell freebie.lemis.com 15:42:22.598413 arp reply yana.lemis.com is-at 0:0:b4:33:6d:a2 15:42:22.598477 freebie.lemis.com > yana.lemis.com: icmp: echo request 15:42:22.599072 yana.lemis.com > freebie.lemis.com: icmp: echo reply 15:42:43.946114 arp who-has yana.lemis.com tell freebie.lemis.com 15:42:43.946644 arp reply yana.lemis.com is-at 0:0:b4:33:6d:a2 15:42:43.946710 freebie.lemis.com > yana.lemis.com: icmp: echo request 15:42:43.947274 yana.lemis.com > freebie.lemis.com: icmp: echo reply I don't think there's much to ASSUME about an Ethernet. If you're connected to one, that's where the data goes. I'm trying to make sure that you're not confusing arp with routed. If you're running routed, you should probably stop it, unless you have a good reason to run it. Even then, you should consider replacing it with gated. Maybe you should give a more detailed description of the problem you're chasing. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

(The default is 256, I recommend 1024 - adjust it yourself as you see fit). If you are connecting with a slow link (a modem for example), this will not matter, but if you have a fast connection this "feature" can be used to create a DoS (Denial of Service) attack. Someone can create a simple shell script to invoke more then 256 connections to your computer which will cause your inetd service to shut down. On the other hand, if you want to support 1024 simultaneous connection to your box make sure you have hardware to support that. Or else someone can also cause DoS and crash your computer by opening 1024 telnet connections at one time. Hence, in the file /etc/rc.conf the line right below inetd_enable="YES" should be changed from: inetd_flags="" to: inetd_flags="-l -R 1024" this will turn on logging (-l switch) and increase maximum connection number to 1024 from the default 256. You will also need to change your syslog.conf file in /etc directory, but we will talk about syslogd later. //////////////////////////////// thank you To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Feb 24 21:23:50 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from ns.stph.net (ns.stph.net [196.12.32.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 743A814EDC for ; Wed, 24 Feb 1999 21:23:36 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from stpmail@ns.stph.net) Received: by ns.stph.net (SMI-8.6/SMI-SVR4) id KAA25615; Thu, 25 Feb 1999 10:50:28 -0500 Received: from stph.net by stph.net with smtp (Smail3.1.28.1 #10) id m10FyDe-000xzSC; Thu, 25 Feb 99 10:40 WET Message-ID: <36D4DBCE.3FA2DABD@stph.net> Date: Thu, 25 Feb 1999 10:42:46 +0530 From: Ashok X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (Win98; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Reg FreeBSD Network problem Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I am Ashok from India.

I don't think that's the question that was asked anyway; it sounds more like the original poster wanted to know how to disable chfn. The answer is not as straightforward as it might seem; disabling /usr/bin/chfn will get you only part way there, because all the ch* binaries (chsh, chfn, chpass, ypch*) are really the same binary, and behave differently depending on argv[0]. If you remove /usr/bin/chfn but leave /usr/bin/chsh, the user can do this: $ cd /tmp $ ln -s /usr/bin/chsh chfn $ ./chfn and still change their finger info. -- Jon Hamilton hamilton@pobox.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 24 21:44:59 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from turkey.ispro.net.tr (turkey.ispro.net.tr [195.174.18.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 296A314FB8 for ; Wed, 24 Feb 1999 21:43:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from yurtesen@turkey.ispro.net.tr) Received: from localhost (yurtesen@localhost) by turkey.ispro.net.tr (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id HAA23562; Thu, 25 Feb 1999 07:42:47 +0200 (EET) (envelope-from yurtesen@turkey.ispro.net.tr) Date: Thu, 25 Feb 1999 07:42:47 +0200 (EET) From: Evren Yurtesen To: Kent Stewart Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re:(2) does freebsd support Ultra ATA/66 ???

Everything work fine except from the 2.2.6 box - it could mount directories on other bsd / linux machines but no one could mount to it. The only difference i could find was that the /sbin/mountd had the wrong permissions (owner root:wheel) instead of bin:bin, was half the size it should have been and several months older than the rest of the mount files in sbin - when i replaced it with the correct file from one of the working fbsd machines everything worked....

The mystery is that the customer's program died with that error message but Acrobat works just fine... Can't be a basic config problem; it is more subtle. (error message was: /compat/linux/lib/ld-linux.so.1 not found). The fact that the compat/linux shows up in the path indicates to me that the system did recognize that this program was a linux module since the ld.so string in the program doesn't have that part, so I'd suspect that 'brandlinux' isn't the answer. I can't find out, unfortunately, on just what kind of linux the non-working and working programs were linked on. Both used libc5, but also some other libs. (maybe someone here can find out from Adobe what the 3.01 linux version was compiled/linked on...) Unfortunately our customer can't find out that info from their vendor. Note that both programs run great in 2.2.8. -- Pete To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Feb 24 23:18:16 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from sherry.math.ncku.edu.tw (sherry.math.ncku.edu.tw [140.116.21.156]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2F80D14C11 for ; Wed, 24 Feb 1999 23:17:58 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from max@sherry.math.ncku.edu.tw) Received: from ip001-018 ([210.59.156.129]) by sherry.math.ncku.edu.tw with smtp id m10Fv1w-000AKqC (Debian Smail-3.2.0.101 1997-Dec-17 #2); Thu, 25 Feb 1999 15:16:20 +0800 (CST) Message-ID: <01bc01be608f$595b5460$120112ac@ip001-018> From: "Max Wong" To: "Question" Subject: Newbie's quesion about 'telnet' Date: Thu, 25 Feb 1999 15:20:29 +0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="big5" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3110.5 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, All: I got another Freebsd 2.2.7 box.

As soon as I changed the directory ownerships to daemon instead of root, it worked. You're right that at is setuid, but atrun is not (and I even tried setting it that way; didn't help). I guess atrun is written to run as "daemon", and since the directories were owned by root, it couldn't get proper access to modify files within those directories.

I like use tcsh as my default shell (for root, too), but one has to be aware of two problems that might occur especially in single user mode: 1) bash, ksh, tcsh, zsh etc. are installed in /usr/local/bin and are usually not available immediately in single user mode when only the root file system is mounted read-only.=20 2) It doesn't help to copy those shells to /bin since they're dynamically linked and thus need the shared libraries in /usr/lib which may not be loadable when booting into single-user mode.=20 Regards // // Konrad Heuer ____ ___ _____= __=20 // Gesellschaft f=FCr wissenschaftliche / __/______ ___ / _ )/ __= / _ \ // Datenverarbeitung mbH G=D6ttingen / _// __/ -_) -_) _ |\ \/= // / // Am Fa=DFberg, D-37077 G=D6ttingen /_/ /_/ \__/\__/____/___= /____/=20 // Deutschland (Germany) ----- The Power to Serve ----= - // http://www.freebsd.org // kheuer@gwdu60.gwdg.de // To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Feb 25 0:48: 2 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from gate.ldn.wdr.com (gate.ldn.wdr.com [193.82.179.18]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 242BC14D44 for ; Thu, 25 Feb 1999 00:47:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Clem.Dye@wdr.com) Received: (from smap@localhost) by gate.ldn.wdr.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) id IAA06047 for ; Thu, 25 Feb 1999 08:47:06 GMT From: Clem.Dye@wdr.com Received: from inside(192.168.0.1) by gate via smap (V2.0) id xma005995; Thu, 25 Feb 99 08:46:54 GMT Received: from ln4p1129.ldn.swissbank.com (ln4p1129.ldn.swissbank.com [172.16.234.32]) by ln4p1013pos.ldn.swissbank.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA24554 for ; Thu, 25 Feb 1999 08:46:53 GMT Received: from localhost (root@localhost) by ln4p1129.ldn.swissbank.com (8.8.6 (PHNE_12836)/8.8.6/WDR alpha evision: 1.7 $) with SMTP id IAA20344 for freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org; Thu, 25 Feb 1999 08:46:52 GMT X-OpenMail-Hops: 1 Date: Thu, 25 Feb 1999 08:46:44 +0000 Message-Id: Subject: RE: Re: www.freebsd.org down?

Some make the lights on the modem change, but none actually dial. I reduced the dial string to the one above in an attempt to simplify the problem.

It is very very stable and will give you access to many precompiled up-to-date software packages. If you don't kneed the newest drivers only available in 3.x-RELEASE, it may be a good choice. One small disadvantage is that the support for the a.out binary format used before 3.x-RELEASE will decrease within the ports collection (if you want to compile software from the ports collection by yourself in the future).=20 3.0-RELEASE gives you access to some new drivers (e.g. Adaptec 7880 SCSI on-board controller) and uses the ELF binary format.

These are, of course, good suggestions. There's one more resource that everybody should constantly refer to and that is the man pages -- they deserve to be read, not just when you want to solve some immediate problem, but as a resource filled with valuable information. Whether you're a newbie to Unix or to this flavour of Unix, or whether you're an old hand, there are always things to learn from browsing the man pages; and we all do ourselves a grave disservice if we forget this. -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Feb 25 2:50:57 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 1AB0E14D45 for ; Thu, 25 Feb 1999 02:50:46 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 28203 invoked by uid 1001); 25 Feb 1999 09:20:33 -0000 Message-ID: <19990225092033.28202.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, 25 Feb 1999 19:20:33 +1000 From: Greg Black To: Jeroen Ruigrok/Asmodai Cc: Scott Gregory , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Putting a mailbox into a database References: In-reply-to: of Wed, 24 Feb 1999 17:49:20 +0100 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > Most archives use MhonArc for their archiving of mail into a web suited > format.

There is no good reason, but there are several myths about this (some of which are *partly* valid for some Unix variants but not for FreeBSD). It's true that a shell like bash (which is dynamically linked by default) needs the shared libraries to be accessible if it's to work. Of course, if it's installed in the default location (/usr/local/bin), they'll be available if bash is. If you do as I do and install bash in /bin, then the libs may not be available in single user mode. The solutions to this are simple -- if there is no problem with mounting /usr, mount it. If there is, take the option of using /bin/sh which is offered to you at that time. I sometimes use experimental shells for root -- there's no real reason not to. Of course, the question of what you should do as root is a quite different one -- but it doesn't have much to do with which shell you use as root. -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Feb 25 2:51: 0 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 3AB3C14D61 for ; Thu, 25 Feb 1999 02:50:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 28398 invoked by uid 1001); 25 Feb 1999 10:37:32 -0000 Message-ID: <19990225103732.28397.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, 25 Feb 1999 20:37:31 +1000 From: Greg Black To: Langa Kentane Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Command history (newbie) References: <913B8C252194D2119BD500805F31817803047C@za12nt02.mweb.com> In-reply-to: <913B8C252194D2119BD500805F31817803047C@za12nt02.mweb.com> of Wed, 24 Feb 1999 16:23:16 +0200 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > I want to use csh and the one thing that is annoying me is that I > can't scroll up my command histoy. > > How do I anable this feature for this shell and what keys will I have to use > to move up the history?? It's really way past time that you started reading the man pages because it's their function to answer trivial questions lke this. If, after reading the man page, you *still* can't get something to work, then come back here and ask a question that shows that you've already made some small effort to solve it for yourself.

There is a perfectly good word: Unix. It doesn't describe any actual product now (since the products all have names like the ones in the list above), and it can't seriously be claimed to belong to anybody any longer (although I'm certain that some noddies somewhere think they "own" it). For my money, Unix is a fine generic term that describes a whole family of OSes either directly derived from the work of Thomson and Ritchie and Co or based on the ideas they originated. Naturally, if you're looking for some term that can be used in some situation where legal niceties might matter, then you'll have to wrap it up in some fluff like "Unix-like" ... -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Feb 25 2:53:56 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from ANTARTICO.mail.telepac.pt (mail7.telepac.pt [194.65.3.51]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 62CC214D44 for ; Thu, 25 Feb 1999 02:53:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bfe00350@mail.telepac.pt) Received: from tecnica ([194.65.206.137]) by ANTARTICO.mail.telepac.pt (Intermail v3.1 117 241) with SMTP id <19990225105336.BBUD28085@[194.65.206.137]>; Thu, 25 Feb 1999 10:53:36 +0000 From: "Joao Pedras" To: cjclark@home.com Date: Thu, 25 Feb 1999 10:54:37 -0000 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Subject: Re: Weird quota Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org In-reply-to: <199902240351.WAA28009@cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com> References: from Joao Pedras at "Feb 23, 99 10:25:45 pm" X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Win32 (v3.01d) Message-Id: <19990225105336.BBUD28085@[194.65.206.137]> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG From: "Crist J.

Seems it doesn't read those lines in rc. I even try to add the complete path in those lines in /etc/rc # Check the quotas (must be after ypbind if using NIS)[ "X${check_quotas}" = X"YES" ]; then echo -n 'checking quotas:' /usr/sbin/quotacheck -a echo ' done.' /usr/sbin/quotaon -a originally was # Check the quotas (must be after ypbind if using NIS)[ "X${check_quotas}" = X"YES" ]; then echo -n 'checking quotas:' quotacheck -a echo ' done.' quotaon -a Either way it's like they are not there... But I can assure you that the rc file is read... nfs mount, etc, etc messages appear I presently have quotaon -a in rc.local... but I would like to know why is this happening...

I have a machine, IP address is 203.41.170.253 - it is going to be host at an ISP, and they've told us we MUST use 203.35.182.9 as the default gateway. They gave me some info on how to do it in linux, and I've done my best to follow through the man page for freebsd's route and do the same, but to no avail. Here's what they said. /sbin/route add -net 203.35.182.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 eth0 /sbin/route add -net 203.41.170.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 eth0 /sbin/route add default gw 203.35.182.9 netmask 0.0.0.0 metric 1 Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I installed FreeBSD version 3.1 release through FTP from Canada site. I foolowed this procedure, And i have one problem. kindly read this. 1) In my Compaq(Intel processor) system only IRQ 3 is free. So i set my NE2000 compatible card to IRQ 3 and Port address 0x300. And after that i connected to Canada FTP Site successfully and installed all distributions. And after rebooting the system after installation, the ethernet interface is not recognised. And the kernel is searching for that card at the address 0x280. Why it becomes like that? How i change the kernel to recognise my card which have IRQ 3 and Port address 0x300.

I was wondering if someone could give me a hand getting my HP CD-RW working. I've read through all kinds of docs, mail archives, web pages, etc. and there seems to be no definitive way to do things. I've looked through the man pages on cdrecord, wormcontrol, etc. I've looked at the /usr/share/examples/atapi/burnaudio/burndata scripts. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. I've got an HP 8100 that is detected as: wdc0 not found at 0x1f0 wdc1 at 0x170-0x177 irq 15 on isa wdc1: unit 0 (atapi): , removable, accel, dma, iordis acd0: drive speed 4134KB/sec, 1024KB cache acd0: supported read types: CD-R, CD-RW, CD-DA, packet track acd0: supported write types: CD-R, CD-RW, test write acd0: Audio: play, 256 volume levels acd0: Mechanism: ejectable tray acd0: Medium: CD-R 120mm data disc loaded, unlocked Questions: 1) What should rworm/rworm0 be links to in order for wormcontrol to work? I've tried just about every combination I can think of and end up with "bad ioctl errors for device" messages. 2) Is wormcontrol the preferred way of doing this? 3) Am I missing any steps? I was told the 8100 would work w/ FreeBSD when I bought my machine, but I haven't had any luck yet! I'm not on freebsd-questions, so if anyone could CC me on a replay, I'd appreciate it.

New Mexico Technet believes that you should be aware of what is happening in the NM Legislature regarding telecommunications deregulation legislation. This will affect everyone in NM who uses the Internet. The risk in this legislation is that US West will have the freedom to raise your rates for any of your data services, including modem access at will, and you will have no recourse. For example, US West could initiate a per-minute charge for any modem connection to an Internet Service Provider from your existing phone line. The Bell operating companies have been attempting to get the FCC to allow them to do this for years, but have been prevented by local regulation. U S West is heavily promoting legislation which would allow them to be deregulated. This would make them, in effect, an unregulated monopoly. The following is a summary of the status of the bill and the sections concerning telecommunications in New Mexico. Status: Last evening, the House Business and Industry Committee passed House Bill 470 - the U S West Deregulation bill. This bill now goes to the House Judiciary Committee. It is critical that you call and state your opposition to this action as quickly as possible. On Wednesday, 2/24/99, we believe that the Senate Judiciary Committee will hear 3 telecommunications bills. One of these is the U S West deregulation bill SB 408. This bill has already passed the Senate Corporations and Transportation Committee. This is the last committee to which it is assigned. This committee is scheduled to meet in room 321 at 2:00 pm. If the Senate stays on the floor longer than 2:00 pm (which has happened) the committee meeting will be delayed. The 3 telecommunications bills to be heard are: SB 408 - the Senate version of the U S West Deregulation bill SB 374 - the bill sponsored by the Interim Committee on Telecommunications and Utilities that makes NM's Telecom Act comply with the federal act SB 372 - the bill to fundthe PRC and the Attorney General to hold a rate case on U S West Please check the legislative web site at http://legis.state.nm.us for additional information. This site contains copies of Senate Bill 408 and House Bill 470 and the other bills that you may wish to look at. The U S West deregulation bills are entitled: "The Infrastructure Investment and Economic Development Act". Choosing this name is a public relations move by U S West. They are very good at public relations. The U S West deregulation legislation has very powerful sponsors. It is about very complex issues. Only a handful of legislators understand the issues. Many legislators are looking at the sponsors and saying that the sponsors must know about it so "I will support them". The legislation is likely to pass **** unless a lot of people call their legislators and say they oppose it. The sponsors have been lobbied heavily by U S West for many years about this legislation. The sponsors and the U S West lobbyists are saying that this is an economic development bill and they are being listened to by other legislators. Everyone knows that we need more investment in infrastructure, especially in rural areas. Many of our legislators think that this bill will provide it. It won't - but after it is passed - it will be too late to take the legislation back. Specifics: This bill deregulates data services and all new telecommunications services. The following language is excerpted from the bill. [My comments are in brackets]: Section 3. C. "data services" means a telecommunications or information service that: (1) provides transmission functionality between customers using point-to-point facilities, point-to-multipoint facilities or digital subscriber loop facilities [sounds like all "circuit" services]; (2) uses asynchronous transfer mode, packet, frame, cell or equivalent technology-based transmission [ATM, FRS, etc.]; (3) permits routing of a packet, frame, or cell using addressing information contained within the packet, frame or cell [IP? ethernet? does this mean a routed ISDN connection is "data"? how about a routed voice line?] ; and (4) uses data conversion protocol [does this mean its a data line if it has a modem on it?]; Section 5. A. no telecommunications carrier is subject to rate of return regulation or to any investigations of its earnings by the commission [Public Regulation Commission or PRC]. I. A telecommunications carrier may offer or discontinue offering packages of services five days after filing a notice with the commission. A packaged offering may combine a retail public telecommunications service with another telecommunications service or offering [U S West can "bundle" like crazy]. J. A telecommunications carrier may combine a retail public telecommunications service with another telecommunications service or a non-telecommunications service or offering [U S West can bundle anything - equipment, real estate, cars, etc.]. K. A telecommunications carrier may offer a public telecommunications service on an individual contract basis to a specific customer upon filing a notice with the commission. The customer name and location shall be looked upon as confidential informational for review only by the commission [U S West can give "special" pricing to anyone and only the PRC knows]. Section 6. D. the burden shall be on the party complaining to prove the allegations of its complaint [since you won't be able to complain about price or service anymore, I am not sure that it matters - but this would be a serious burden on someone who has a complaint]. Section 8. A. data services offered by a telecommunications carrier shall be deregulated and shall not be subject to any regulation by the commission. And here's ***all*** that great infrastructure investment language: Section 9. a telecommunications carrier that serves more than two hundred fifty thousand access lines in the state [only U S West serves >250,000 lines] shall enter into an agreement with the secretary of economic development detailing a specific plan of investments that the telecommunications carrier will make in telecommunications infrastructure over a specified period of time [technically they could invest $1.00 over the next 50 years according to this language. [I am sure that the Secretary of Economic Development is a fine person, but I do not believe he is very knowledgable about telecommunications infrastructure investment. Why not have the agreement with the PRC?]. The secretary of economic development shall make an annual report to the legislature detailing the investment committments made by the telecommunications carriers and their impact on economic development within New Mexico [note - if there is no investment nothing happens except that it gets reported]. The citizens of the State of NM will have to live with this FOREVER if it passes. If you don't want this to be passed, you have to stop it. There are people going to Santa Fe and testifying before committees - but that is simply not going to be enough. You have to decide how much effort you want to put into this now - or understand that you are choosing to live with U S West getting to do exactly what it wants forever with no recourse available to you. I believe that this is a bad bill for New Mexico. I have never seen U S West voluntarily reduce the charges on anything it didn't have to. Charges for data services will go up. Schools, universities, hospitals, city and county government, banks, ISPs, and other large organizations - including state government - will all be paying more for these data services. U S West can let uswest.net have special deals, however, and we will not know it. That will be confidential info. I strongly urge every one of you to call or FAX your legislators TODAY and express your opinion on this legislation. Email is not as effective unless you know that your legislator reads email regularly. If you do not know who your legislators are - that information (and their phone number in Santa Fe) is available at http://legis.state.nm.us FAX numbers are available by calling their office. If the Senate Bill passes the Senate Judiciary today, this legislation will go to the full Senate tomorrow morning. It is important to act as soon as possible. Thank you for taking the time to read this message. There are several people at Technet who will be happy to discuss these issues with you in more detail.

I wrote a script to be executed by elm to print email from the program. Doesn't work. Try the script from the command line, it appears to work, [122:~] /usr/local/libexec/prmail message [ 1 pages * 1 copy ] sent to printer 1 lines were wrapped But nothing comes out of the printer. Try the print command in the script on the command line, [123:~] enscript --fancy-header=mail -t 'Test Subject' --header='Thu, 25 Feb 1999 07:11:42 -0800' message [ 1 pages * 1 copy ] sent to printer 1 lines were wrapped But nothing comes out of the printer. Try without the fancy header, [124:~] enscript message [ 1 pages * 1 copy ] sent to printer 1 lines were wrapped Viola! It prints. Something is going on in the header, but I cannot figure out where. enscript reports no problem and the lpd log, lpd-errors, does not have any errors. No errors that I can find on the syslogd server the printer reports to (but I don't know how well that is being handled). The mail header file (/usr/local/enscript/mail.hdr) is a product of the FSF I copied from an IRIX machine where it works fine. Here's the top with some info that might ID it. I won't send it all unless requested, % % OPENWINDOWS' mp header % Copyright (c) 1996 Markku Rossi. % Author: Markku Rossi % My problem is that I have no output to diagnose the problem.

Well I can try, but I haven't actually used any of these products so I can't say how well they do or don't work. First check out : http://metalab.unc.edu/freetds/ Read throught the site completely, especially the faq. I believe this will begin to point you in the right direction. Also if you are not too attached to perl you can take a look at php, which if you go through enough loops may provide you with an ability to access your MS SQL server from FreeBSD. PHP can be found at : http://www.php.net/ Their faq also has info in this regard and may prove useful, see : http://www.php.net/FAQ.php3 Again, I haven't actually used this programs in this way so this should be taken with a grain of salt :-) * Joseph M.

Since UNIX is by all mean aware of case, the file you looked in was not Install.txt but INSTALL.TXT it saves time for others if you give the correct name of a file that you refer to.

Although, i would think that there was no need for this at this time. I did try to use "mkfile" but it does not seem to be supported. Or do i have configuration problem? Please help. i just succeeded in connecting to the internet and would very much like to start using this system seriously.

Put it there. You need an entry for 35. And all the records require fully qualified domain names. Your default domain in this file is, like the origin says, 200.200.200.in-addr.arpa so the expanded entry for your 33 would be 33 IN PTR router1.200.200.200.in-addr.arpa.

Run "tcpdump -n -i tun0" to print all the packets going out over your PPP link. Determine which packets are the offending win95 packets, then in your ppp.conf, add some "set filter dial" lines blocking those packets from triggering a dialout.

Three basic ways to add swap (off the top of my head), 1) Add a new device with more swap. 2) Reconfigure (repartiton) and existing device to change swap size or add new swap. 3) Swap from a vnode device. Since you were using 'mkfile' I assume you were trying to do (3). You can use 'dd' to write a file for the job. HTH. And I just did (2) Tuesday if you prefer that method. -- Crist J.

They are done in a way that makes bsd think there's an invalid disklabel. Sometimes it complains, and sometimes the kernel give a paging error and panics/reboots (but with a countdown). I've found no way around this save rebooting until success. And I'm seeing no evidence so far that linux and freebsd can coexist on the sam e machine :( 3.1 may haave solved the problems with 3.0 trashing ext2 filesystems, but i can't take the risk. Linux kernel 2.2 can r/w mount ufs filesystems, but it seems to do something not quite right. I ran with a ufs partition on /home for about three days, I got plenty of errors from netscape (while supposedly idling) that it had an error mounting the bookmark file. THen, suddenly, any attempt to write to /home crated an error message that it was a read-only file system--contrary to what mount reported. And any attempt to umount irretrevably hung, impervious even to -9 . . . and there's no ability to fsck a ufs partition from linux. ANd with my bsd partition before my linux partition, partition numbers change mid-way through boot. And heaven forbid that this cause linux to attempt to mount a ufs partition as ext2, as this kills it beyond recovery. So booting is a problem with both installed, and even once you're up, you can't share files unless you run them through a dos or minix partition . . . rick, who's given up -- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Feb 25 11:44: 7 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from procyon.meridian-enviro.com (thunder.meridian-enviro.com [207.109.234.227]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 46A2D14E09 for ; Thu, 25 Feb 1999 11:43:46 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from rand@meridian-enviro.com) Received: from deneb.meridian-enviro.com (deneb.meridian-enviro.com [10.10.10.32]) by procyon.meridian-enviro.com (8.9.2/8.9.2) with ESMTP id NAA14157; Thu, 25 Feb 1999 13:43:19 -0600 (CST) Received: (from rand@localhost) by deneb.meridian-enviro.com (8.9.2/8.9.2) id NAA06140; Thu, 25 Feb 1999 13:43:31 -0600 (CST) From: "Douglas K.

My suggestion would be to have your first disk the Win95 disk, the second disk FreeBSD and the third disk your "extra" Win95 disk. Windows95 won't have any problem access the third disk after boot (assuming that everything need to get Win95 up and running is on the first disk).

For the convenience of users (not for any security reasons) I want to hide dot files from users who FTP in to my machine. I've compiled ftpd using FTPD_INTERNAL_LS, and the users are all listed in /etc/ftpchroot. Is there a way to have the FTP LIST, NLST commands not show files whose names start with a dot? I don't care about CWD, STOR, etc.; just the listings. I'm comfortable editing source code; I just can't find the right place to make the edits (removing the A flag from the ls command in libexec/ftpd/ftpcmd.c didn't make any difference). I'm using FreeBSD 2.2.8. I will eventually be moving to 3.0-STABLE. Thanks!

The cause was that the network card on the FBSD box was set to full-duplex. Data transfers from the FBSD box were fine, but sending files to the box (with Samba or via ftp) either took forever or timed out. When I looked at the hub fixed to the back of my desk I noticed the collision light was almost constantly on. Setting the card in the FBSD box back to half-duplex fixed this straight away.

'ps aux' shows nothing unusual. this problem only happens in X window environment. 2) regarding adding a new swap device, i don't have any available partition on the disk. that is why i want to add a swap file. i do have enough disk space in /export/home partition. i figure that i can't use 'mkfile' to add a swap file. 3) my question is: how do i add swap file in FreeBSD?. in solaris i would have done this: mkfile -v 300m /export/home/some_swap_file then i would enable swap thus: swap -a /export/home/some_swap_file how do i accomplish the same in FreeBSD?

If you mean that you'd like to have your login shell set to sh but that it should check for bash and run that instead, it's trivial. Put the following lines at the top of your ~/.profile file: [ "x$BASH" = "x" ] && [ -x /usr/local/bin/bash ] && SHELL=/usr/local/bin/bash exec /usr/local/bin/bash --login This makes sure that you're not already running bash and then replaces your shell with a bash login shell if it's available. -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Feb 25 13:29:53 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 8F0B014E5F for ; Thu, 25 Feb 1999 13:29:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 3272 invoked by uid 1001); 25 Feb 1999 21:21:48 -0000 Message-ID: <19990225212148.3271.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, 26 Feb 1999 07:21:48 +1000 From: Greg Black To: "Joao Pedras" Cc: cjclark@home.com, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Weird quota References: from Joao Pedras at "Feb 23, 99 10:25:45 pm" <19990225105336.BBUD28085@[194.65.206.137]> In-reply-to: <19990225105336.BBUD28085@[194.65.206.137]> of Thu, 25 Feb 1999 10:54:37 GMT Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I've vaguely noticed a lot of traffic on this topic and I'm not sure if it's been resolved, but there is a glaring inconsistency here that may be the problem.

The setting of maxusers in the kernel config file has no effect on the maximum number of users that can login simultaneously. It is there to arrange for a suitable level of system resources in a running kernel. The major limit on the number of users is the number of ptys. That is dependent on two things: the "pseudo-device pty xxx" line in the kernel config file and on the number of devices in /dev, which can be increased with the /dev/MAKEDEV command. -- Greg Black To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Feb 25 13:30: 1 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from alpha.comkey.com.au (alpha.comkey.com.au [203.9.152.215]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id E546514E5C for ; Thu, 25 Feb 1999 13:29:44 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjb@comkey.com.au) Received: (qmail 3208 invoked by uid 1001); 25 Feb 1999 21:15:59 -0000 Message-ID: <19990225211559.3207.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, 26 Feb 1999 07:15:59 +1000 From: Greg Black To: Paul Dekkers Cc: FreeBSD Mailinglist Subject: Re: More than 16 logins and more than one login for a user?

If I have the wrong mailing list, please let me know. Is there a way to use FreeBSD as a serial mux? What I want to do is replace an existing leased line that is connected to serial multiplexers with a more modern WAN (TCP/IP) connection. The downside is that I still need to provide the serial muxing connection. So really what I need is a way to remotely run some terminals that are proprietary enough to not have emulation, as in serial in one server and serial out the other server. This seems useful enough that I would be surprised is someone has not already done it (without requiring expensive terminal servers!)

I just told you. Use 'dd' instead of 'mkfile.' Then you need to make it mountable as a vnode. See, man dd man vnconfig man swapon For starters, create a 50 MB file on say /var, # dd if=/dev/zero count=50 bs=1m of=/var/swap_file HTH. RTFM. -- Crist J.

If so telnet to the printer and disable the banner in the JetDirect software. You may have to upgrade the firmware to do this.

We replaced our 56kb lease lines with ISDN lines in order to allow tcp/ip traffic. However, we still have terminals in place at some locations. So, in order to allow both serial and tcp/ip connections over the same ISDN line, we put in Time Division Multiplexors (TDMs) on each side. So we have a 3 connector TDM with one side going to the router (Engage) one side goes to the ISDN modem (Adtran), and one side going either to the DTC (for our HP3000) or to the serial MUX at the remote site. I don't see why you couldn't replace the routers in this example with freebsd machines, but I don't know of any way to use FreeBSD as a MUX. Also, I forget which brand of TDM we use, but we had a number that were unreliable and cause me some grief in troubleshooting. hth dbk James Van Vleet wrote: > > I found this question a few times in my mailing list searches, but couldn't > find an answer.

You haven't really said what you want, but I'm assuming that you want it to say FreeBSD/AMD-K6 instead of FreeBSD/i386. You can do that: you have all the source. The i386 in the text refers to the architecture, not the processor. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

I don't know offhand how to do that, but one thing to keep in mind is that if you lock out a user because of too many unsuccessful logins, then anybody can deny service to one of your users by logging in unsuccessfully. That is, I might not want to break into your system, I just try logging in with your password and get you locked out in order to annoy you, distract you, keep you from getting work done, whatever. -- Matthew Hunt * Science rules. http://www.pobox.com/~mph/pgp.key for PGP public key 0x67203349.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello! I had problems with hanging installations at "Probing devices". I guess now I found the problem. I got past the blue screen once but I don't remember what I did to make it happen (probably I was too happy in that moment to take notes) anyway, I found out that the problem is my secondary IDE controller. wdc1 it is found at boot up and also my CD ROM is found but then when the blue screen comes up it hangs. When I disable wdc1 I get past the screen but I can not use my CD because it is installed on the secondary IDE controller. So what can I do? I got past this screen and installed freeBSD once so it has to work again but I don't know why the secondary IDE controller creates the crash because it is properly detected.... HELP! please!

Sure, but how often are you in single-user mode? And since you get prompted for a shell (and the default is /bin/sh), you're covered there too. I've been using /bin/bash as my root shell for years.

The CD is presumably primary on the secondary controller (if you follow!?) - how long have you left it on the "Probing devices" screen? - I seem to remember having to wait over 1 minute+ on an old 486 I used to have, just for it to detect the secondary IDE channel etc... -Kp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Feb 25 17: 8:49 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from allegro.lemis.com (allegro.lemis.com [192.109.197.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3E11B14DFA for ; Thu, 25 Feb 1999 17:08:44 -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 LAA02602; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 11:38:26 +1030 (CST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.3/8.9.0) id LAA32600; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 11:38:24 +1030 (CST) Message-ID: <19990226113824.K431@lemis.com> Date: Fri, 26 Feb 1999 11:38:24 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: =?iso-8859-1?Q?dici_=28D=E9veloppement_Informatique_de_C=2EI=29?= Cc: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: SCO XENIX file running References: <01be60c5$896257e0$LocalHost@dicidt> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Mailer: Mutt 0.93.2i In-Reply-To: =?iso-8859-1?Q?=3C01be60c5$896257e0$LocalHost=40dicidt=3E=3B_from_dici_?= =?iso-8859-1?Q?=28D=E9veloppement_Informatique_de_C=2EI=29_on_Thu=2C_Feb?= =?iso-8859-1?Q?_25=2C_1999_at_01:48:33PM_-0000?= 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, 25 February 1999 at 13:48:33 -0000, dici (Développement Informatique de C.I) wrote: > On jeudi 25 février 1999 04:34, Greg Lehey wrote >> On Wednesday, 24 February 1999 at 18:13:05 +0100, Jeroen Ruigrok/Asmodai wrote: >>> On 23-Feb-99 dici (Développement Informatique de C.I) wrote: >>>>> Hello, >>>>> Is there a special setting to execute file I used to run on SCO XENIX ? >>> >>> That's part of the SVR4 emulation a couple of guys are working on.

For example (these are real files from a XENIX development environment, viewed on a FreeBSD system): d3var.o: 8086 relocatable (Microsoft) As the name suggests, you can't do much with this libd3form.a: old PDP-11 archive You can't do much with this either, though possibly we could find a version of ar which understands it. But it probably contains relocatables like the preceding entry. filemode: Infocom game data (Z-machine 6, Release 11264, I think that this is x.out. Again, there's not much you can do with it. To be sure, check it like this: $ od -h filemode | more 0000000 0206 002c 2ce8 0000 1400 0000 1520 0000 If the first halfword is 0206, it's x.out. ls: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1, dynamically linked, stripped This is a System V.4 ELF file. You shouldn't find any on a XENIX box. If you have them, the System V.4 emulation should handle them I don't have any COFF executables on this machine, but it's quite possible your files are COFF. As I said, you can emulate them with the iBCS2 software. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

Ah, its not that hard. We just have to reprogram your brain a bit. One Of The Really Great Things About Un*x is that devices (such as your tape drive) behave very much like files. So all you have to do is name a file rather than a tape drive as the destination for your backup. Make sure you don't name a file that is within the range you are backing up. The backup will loop until the filesystem is full. Example: tar -cvzf /tmp/dkelly.tar.gz ~dkelly The above writes a backup of my home directory to /tmp. The "z" option to tar causes gzip to be invoked to compress the file. So I named the file "dkelly.tar.gz" so I don't forget. Same kind of thing applies to dump/restore too. Make sure you don't dump to the same filesystem you are backing up. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@nospam.hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

The mt(1) utility now supports enabling/disabling compression. A minor nit is the new CAM sa driver implements "mount sessions" and resets to defaults when it thinks the mount session ends. No way to chose your defaults. If that is out of the question, then there is a "DC-Passthru" jumper and/or DIP switch on the Seagate drive which selects the compression state at power up. Under older FreeBSD's this means you don't have a means to enable compression. But reading a compressed tape will automagically work. What I'm concerned about is that once you have read a compressed tape the drive will stay in compressed mode when you create a new tape. Its not supposed to be possible to switch compression modes in the middle of a tape. While we are CC:'ing Seagate on this (I'm a good Seagate customer with about 100 Seagate HD's and 15 Seagate tape drives at work) I'd like to know how one can query a drive to learn 1) what compression mode is on the tape, and 2) the error rate on the tape that was just read or written. The only way I've found to prove a tape is compressed or not is to attempt to read with a DDS drive which doesn't support compression. Doesn't do me any good if its a DDS-2 or DDS-3 tape as my DDS-1 drives are the only ones that don't support compression. -- 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's possible that these systems are ones with DHCP network boot support, which may be leaving the chips in non-default states.

I have this feature set at work on an HP-UX machine. It is real annoying to have someone hammer root and lock out root. Then I have to go downstairs and do a real console login to change the damn password and reset the account. Since I dont spend much time as root, I only notice at the odd momement I have to do some admin. Novell Netware also has this ?feature? and I have seen it used for mischief on occasion. I would prefer to have the system insert an increasing delay that grows to 60 seconds or some configurable value with a decay to zero after a while. I still think that having a secure cryptic password should be adequate. One useful feature would be to add password policies to FreeBSD.

I change it to 8 >(to avoid conflict with xl0) and it won't work docked or undocked, even >thouth the dumpcis seems to say it should work with irq 8. When I moved from 2.2-PAO to 3.1, my pccard support stopped working entirely. After much debugging, I found out it was due in part to how the irq's are being allocated. In order to get an IRQ allocated, there has to be a match between the device IRQ mask and the PCCARD irq mask pool (which is only an approximation of the actual irq slots available). Furthermore, there is no way to control which IRQ the pcic driver grabs for itself, and, since it gets first dibs, if it grabs an IRQ that you need for a card, you're screwed. I added the following to /sys/pccard/pccard.c: +#ifdef PCIC_DEBUG + printf("Locating IRQ...\n(slt->ctrl->irqs=%x, desc->irqmask=%x)\n", slt->ctrl->irqs, desc->irqmask); +#endif if ((slt->ctrl->irqs & desc->irqmask) == 0) return(EINVAL); When I insert my PortableDock harddrive, I get the following kernel message: Locating IRQ... (slt->ctrl->irqs=e00, desc->irqmask=200) As you can see, the PCCARD pool only consists of IRQ 10, 11, and 12 (which is much less than what is actually available). The card requires IRQ 10, and gets it (before I hacked pcic.c, the controller would grab IRQ 10 for itself). I would suggest you check to make sure the PCCARD IRQ pool actually has IRQ 10 available at the time of card insertion (using my method, or something similar). -Michael Robinson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Feb 25 21:10:25 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from kot.ne.mediaone.net (kot.ne.mediaone.net [24.218.12.203]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 092BA14EC6 for ; Thu, 25 Feb 1999 21:10:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mi@aldan.algebra.com) Received: from rtfm.ziplink.net (rtfm [10.10.0.1]) by kot.ne.mediaone.net (8.9.1a/8.9.1) with ESMTP id AAA02374; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 00:09:39 -0500 (EST) From: Mikhail Teterin X-Relay-IP: 10.10.0.1 Received: (from mi@localhost) by rtfm.ziplink.net (8.9.2/8.9.1) id AAA53904; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 00:10:27 -0500 (EST) Message-Id: <199902260510.AAA53904@rtfm.ziplink.net> Subject: Re: disabling compression on Seagate DAT (Arhive Python) drive To: dkelly@hiwaay.net Date: Fri, 26 Feb 1999 00:10:27 -0500 (EST) Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG, tapesupport@seagate.com X-Face: %UW#n0|w>ydeGt/b@1-.UFP=K^~-:0f#O:D7w hJ5G_<5143Bb3kOIs9XpX+"V+~$adGP:J|SLieM31VIhqXeLBli" The manual says it is possible to do by a MODE SELECT command from => the host computer, but provides no specifics. Can someone, please, => share the knowledge? Ideally, I need an argument for FreeBSD-2.2.6's => scsi(8) command. =First, I'd suggest an upgrade to 3.1-stable is in order. Impossible :( =... there is a "DC-Passthru" jumper and/or DIP switch on the Seagate =drive which selects the compression state at power up. Under older =FreeBSD's this means you don't have a means to enable compression. It is possible to do this from host -- the "manual" says it is, but refers you to ANOTHER manual, which is a Seagate part such-and-such. Remarkably STUPID! Now, there is also a "Seagate Unix Compatability Guide", also written "for dummies", but I managed to get from it, that this tapes use mode page 0xf, rather then 0x10 for compression settings. My attempts to use scsi -f /dev/st0ctl.0 -m 0xf -P 3 -e failed even after I duplicated the 0x10 entry in /usr/share/misc/scsi_modes as 0x0f entry.

Of course, this requires that you have PHP installed and compiled with support for MySQL. This is pretty easy to do and you should find instructions included with the PHP distribution. The basic steps are to compile PHP with MySQL support and then recompile Apache. Alternatively, you can use Perl or C++ to create an interface, but they lack the ease and flexibility of PHP.

For the most part I'd like to internationalize xwindows so I can type international characters. Here's what i've messed with so far: in rc.conf: keymap="us.iso.kbd" font8x16="iso-8x16.fnt" font8x14="iso-8x14.fnt" font8x8="iso-8x8.fnt" in /stand/sysinstall under keymap: (*) U.S. ISA under config->console->font: (*) ISO 8859-1 keymap: (*) U.S. ISO also I have left ctrl+left shift as my keymode change in xwindows which does change modes, but it doesn't let me type any special characters. It either types a few selected letters (non international) or nothing. If anyone has any webpages, hints, manpages or something I'm missing out on I'd love to know. I've looked at the localization stuff in the handbook to no avail.

The machine is a 486@33Mhz, 16Mb ram, 2x1Gb scsi drives, and the X server is a nearby macintosh running MacX 2.0. When wine is first started up, it runs fine. I've run the terminal emulator that I _need_ and mirc 5.5.1 with it. But the _second_ instance of wine crashes or somehow breaks the first instance.... I thought it might be an issue with DDE support and my particular application, but trying to run an instance of the terminal emulator (wingrape), and an instance of mirc has the same effect. The first instance of wine stops, and the second instance runs ok. Running 'top,' I noticed that the first wine instance creates two processes, but that after the second instance is started there are only three processes. I don't know enough about the internal workings of wine to speculate about this, but it seems odd... I'm talking to a gentleman on the wine newsgroup about this issue as well, and he is looking at the debug output from wine. Has anyone run multiple instances of wine under 2.2.8? Any ideas? anyone? (ps - I would love to get this working, because then I can start deleting windows from our old PCs and turning them into X terminals, with the 'Mission critical' (ack!) terminal emulation program running in wine under FreeBSD!)

I even have two serial multiplexors. What I wanted to avoid was around $5100 (includes year use) for a second leased line. I looked around, and it looks like a TDM would cost enough to make it easier (and possibly cheaper) to go with a second line. Since what needs to be done is read whatever data is on one port, send it to the second machine, then send it out it's port, I am wondering if this has been done before or what pointers I can get to make it work. If I have this solution, then I already have all the pieces I need and avoid a second line just to support some old terminals. Part of the issue is that these terminals will be gone in about 10-12 months anyway. I hate to buy more hardware (or a second line) that will be useless to me after a year. I have no doubt I could write a solution for FreeBSD and perhaps I will if there is not an existing way. I would need to make it work pretty quick though... -James > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of David Knapp > Sent: Friday, February 26, 1999 3:42 PM > To: jvanvleet@sei-it.com; c > Subject: Re: FreeBSD as a serial mux?

I don't have much experience with this type of setup (passive backplanes), so you'll have to excuse me if I'm missing something obvious. I've tried installing FreeBSD 2.2.8-RELEASE and 3.1-RELEASE on these servers, however they fail to recognize any PCI cards (Adaptec 2940UWs, Intel EtherExpress Pro 10/100 Bs). Just to see what would happen, I tried install Redhat 5.2 on one of the servers. It installed fine. Is there any way to get FreeBSD working on this motherboard? Some special patch or kernel build? Any help would be appreciated.

The machine has IP addresses on both IP ranges. The default gateway is 207.x.x.1. I'm running a server which is bound to a 206.x.x.x IP. However, since my default gateway is 207.x.x.1, it sends all data out on link #2 but receives incoming data over link #1. This means that if either link #1 or link #2 is down, I'm effectively dead in the water. Is there any way to tell my box that for all data going out of it with a /source/ address of 206.x.x.x should be sent through the 206.x.x.1 gateway? I know I can do this based on destination, but I have no clue how to do it based on source (and unfortunately I can't predict the addresses of all the clients I'll be communicating with). Hope someone has some ideas.

My version is 2.2.7 which claims to support the card, an Intel Etherexpress Pro 100/B (has been working fine on a Linux box for some months now, so the hardware is not faulty). On boot the kernel seems to (sort of) detect it, with the message: fxp0 rev 4 int a irq ?? on pci0:6:0 int line register not set by bios fxp0: couldn't map interrupt However, going into the visual config presents only a selection for "Intel EtherExpress Pro/10", which is ex0 (and not fxp0, which seems to be what I want). Do I need to get the kernel sources and compile a driver? I'd like to avoid this since the machine has a very small hard drive (I'm planning to use it as a router, the etherexpress is actually the second NIC in the machine) and I probably don't have the space for it. Anyhow, if the driver isn't already in the kernel, why is it detecting the stuff it spits out at boot? Thanks in advance for any pointers.

Try the card in a different slot, make sure you don't have the BIOS in 'plug and play' mode, and if you can try setting the IRQ's for the PCI slots in the bios...

The BIOS was indeed the problem. Thanks much for the ultra-quick response. However, just to satisfy my curiosity - why is that the driver for this card is availible by default, yet doesn't show up in the visual config? I guess I'm just a little confused as to how FreeBSD drivers actually work.

It should show up in visual config, listed under 'PCI'? - You can't disable / enable it from the list (AFAIK), but it should be listed...

But I am curious why it only seems to list non-USA sites. Admittedly, it says "Warning: database is currently being updated." -- perhaps this is the reason. If USA sites are excluded by policy, does anyone know if such a service exists for North American sites? I thought not all (USA) sites carry all available SNAPs, CTM deltas, ports, etc. BTW, is there a recommended way short of trial & error to find out which site has the best performance (highest transfer rate & least traffic)?

I managed to compile aout perl, but _not_ the default one shipped with FreeBSD. If you are interested in this, do the following: 1. Download ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/languages/perl/CPAN/authors/id/GBARR/perl5.005_03-MAINT_TRIAL_5.tar.gz In fact, any CPAN site will do. 2. Unpack it. 3. Download http://www.plab.ku.dk/tobez/FreeBSD-perl-aout/Makefile.SH and replace original Makefile.SH in the distribution. 4. Download http://www.plab.ku.dk/tobez/FreeBSD-perl-aout/hints/freebsd.sh and replace original hints/freebsd.sh in the distribution. 5. Cd to the distribution directory. 6. $ OBJFORMAT=aout sh Configure -DAOUT -des This will prepare to make _static_ libperl.a. You are welcome to try to build dynamically linked version yourself :-) though I think there is actually no need to do this to accomplish what you described. You may also wish to not run -des but rather run Configure in ``slow'' mode and change its defaults for installation paths. 7. $ OBJFORMAT=aout make 8. $ OBJFORMAT=aout make test All tests should be successful. At least they are on my 4.0-current machine. Also: $ file perl perl: FreeBSD/i386 compact demand paged dynamically linked executable not stripped $ file libperl.a libperl.a: current ar archive random library 9. Go root 10. OBJFORMAT=aout make install (UNTESTED) Hope this helps. -- Anton Berezin The Protein Laboratory, University of Copenhagen To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Feb 26 7:13:59 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from smtpott2.nortel.ca (smtpott2.NortelNetworks.com [192.58.194.80]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4C49D14F5A for ; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 07:13:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from wyattn@nortelnetworks.com) Received: from zrtpd004.us.nortel.com (actually nrtpd004) by smtpott2.nortel.ca; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 10:13:03 -0500 Received: from zrtpd00n.us.nortel.com by zrtpd004.us.nortel.com with SMTP (Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service Version 5.0.1460.8) id FR10BRTZ; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 10:12:46 -0500 Received: from brtph629.us.nortel.com by zrtpd00n.us.nortel.com with SMTP (Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service Version 5.0.1460.8) id 1WMNWTSC; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 10:12:38 -0500 Message-ID: <36D6B9E5.6808B7E9@americasm01.nt.com> Date: Fri, 26 Feb 1999 10:12:37 -0500 From: "Wyatt Nordstrom" Organization: Nortel X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.05 [en] (X11; I; HP-UX B.10.20 9000/778) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: drkhoe@gmsnet.com Cc: Ruan , freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Help with installing MySQL under FBSD. pliz.

I use mysql as the database for a web site. Most of my scripts were written in c. They were too easy. My first program took about an hour. Most of the time was spent figuring out that I had to include libraries and include directories. The command line to compile under freebsd 2.2.7 stable is: gcc -L/usr/local/lib/mysql -I/usr/local/include/mysql file.c -lmysqlclient -lm Check out the c api section of the mysql manual. This shows you everything you need to know about the api. In addition, I did a search on the web for mysql tutorials. There are plenty out there, and some of them are very detailed explaining the api. This is where I got the most help about programming to interface to mysql. About PHP, I initially looked into PHP, and like DOC, I installed Apache with php. Although, I have not used php so far (mainly because of my c background and time constraints), the interface to mysql is simple. Very easy to use. If you are looking for a simple interface that works great on the web, and you have the time for the learning curve, PHP is probably the way to go. By the way, there are some great web resources on php. Just find the php home page, and your off to the races. Dr. Mosh wrote: > >I am busy installing it at the moment.

I would also like to know, what kind of shareware I would have to install. It is possible, but that is _not_ a lot of disk space. You could do a minimal version of FreeBSD, but you'd already have very little space left. You'd probably want to add a POP and possibly an IMAP server if people will be pulling mail off to PCs. You'll have little space for storing user mail or swap (if you got hit with a 43 MB file like my mail server did the other day, you'd have problems ;). That is also the bare minimum amount of RAM. To be honest, I think it'd be cheaper to upgrade or use another machine rather than put all of the time and effort needed into getting things to work under those constraints. BTW, the machine _is_ a 386 or better, right? And I thought my PentiumPro with 24 MB RAM and a 1 GB disk was a minimal mailserver... > Please give me an answer on qj@box43.gnet.pl You should put this in your 'Reply-To' if you want mail to go there. -- Crist J.

I've managed to get rid of the "permission denied" errors, but still no success otherwise. I've setup the exports files like so: On cougar: / -alldirs -mapall=root dolphin 206.27.167.254 On dolphin: / -alldirs -mapall=root cougar 206.27.167.253 The IP addresses are good, by the way. We use a bit of ppp negotiation trickery to always obtain the same dynamic IPs on connecting to our ISP. I'm running mountd with the flags "-l -r -n", and nfsd with the flags "-r -u -t -n 4". Anyway, mountd on the server machine reports successful mounts from the client, but the client simply hangs, never returning to the shell prompt. I've tried various comands to do the mount (/testnfs is a small directory I created for testing purposes): mount -t nfs cougar:/testnfs /mnt mount_nfs -T -i cougar:/testnfs /mnt and so on and so forth. Same results each time. Frankly, I'm baffled. -- Conrad Sabatier Swahili, n.: The language used by the National Enquirer to print their retractions. -- Johnny Hart To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Feb 26 9: 0:25 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from hebrews.vnews.net (unknown [209.54.161.25]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3849D14F8C for ; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 09:00:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from freebsd@vnews.net) Received: from hostit.vnews.net ([209.54.165.69]) by hebrews.vnews.net (8.9.1/8.9.1) with SMTP id KAA06797 for ; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 10:56:31 -0600 Received: by hostit.vnews.net with Microsoft Mail id <01BE6178.080270A0@hostit.vnews.net>; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 11:06:17 -0600 Message-ID: <01BE6178.080270A0@hostit.vnews.net> From: Greg Cook To: "'FreeBSD-Questions'" Subject: 9 quick questions :) Somewhat Long Date: Fri, 26 Feb 1999 11:06:15 -0600 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Disclaimer: I have good working knowledge of Linux (Redhat 4.0 ~ 5.2) = and ancient SCO, but alas none with FreeBSD or BSD derivatives.

Easiest way I know of, "make deinstall" in the port's dir. 3. Look into a program called cvsup, goes out and queries servers for any and all updates to ported applications, and system source code. 6. use "vipw", allows direct editing of the password file and reloads it upon exit to make changes take effect. Hope this helps out a little.

This is how I do it: 1. install cvsup (from the ports - if you don't know where in the ports directory, cd to /usr/ports and run "make search key=cvsup"). If you don't know much about ports, they are MUCH better than packages. In the ports collection you have "links" to all the necessary information to build and install any of the packages: typing "make" will retrieve the necessary source code from whichever ftp server has it, patch it for FreeBSD, compile it and get it ready for installation; typing "make install" will place it in the proper place and a "make clean" will remove all the leftover files from the compilation. The entire ports collection takes up only 58 Mbytes - with it you can build any of the 2096 ports. 2. run cvsup in a cron job every night to retrieve changes to the ports collection and to the source code for FreeBSD (if you wish - I track the -STABLE branch). Scan the e-mail message you get sent from the output of the cron job every morning to see if there any changes to your favourite port. If so, cd to the appropriate directory and do a "make", "make install" and "make clean" - or if you prefer, do a "pkg_remove favourite_port" before installing the new version. Once a month or so (if you decide to track the -STABLE branch), cd to /usr/src and "make world", then recompile your kernel).

While you can use a file for additional swap, I gather performance is unattractive. Another poster has spelt out the options more completely. -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."

This may not help you, but if not it may help someone else.... OpenLink Software (sorry can't give you the URL - its at work :-( ) has commercial ODBC support for all sorts of RDBMS servers, although no specific support yet for FreeBSD (coming IIRC from their website). They are also hosting the ongoing development of the iODBC open source ODBC driver manager. I have succeeded in getting a demo version of their software working in the following configuration: client: SQL test program from iODBC linked against the OpenLink MultiTier ODBC driver on a FreeBSD 2.2.7 system. server: OpenLink MultiTier network communication daemon linked against CA-Ingres 6.4 on a Solaris 2.4 system. I was able to create tables, insert rows, select, and drop tables (with appropriate login on Ingres server of course). I have also managed to link this driver into an Apache-PHP web server, although I've not yet confirmed that this is functional. In order to get this to work: - I used the BSDI 2.1 OpenLink client kit. - I dropped the iODBC library from the equation altogether, and created symlinks from the OpenLink libraries to simulate the iODBC libraries. This means I can only use the OpenLink MultiTier driver (adequate for my purposes), and I think I have to fully specify the connection details, rather than naming a DSN in an ODBC.INI file (again not a major drama for me at the moment). As another possibility to research - I seem to recall hearing of a Sybase client library for Linux which may/may not work against MS SQL Server (which is essentially Sybase). If this were the case, you might be able to use a Linux version of Perl (+extensions as you've mentioned) with this library under Linux emulation. -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."

Best thing to do is try it, and let us know! :-) FreeBSD may not know it's ID yet, but it should still know enough to figure out it's an "i686 something" - if you post the output of the CPU ID dmesg, someone can make sure it does ID it properly...

I work for for a college that is connected to the Internet. We are also connected to a LAN/WAN protected by a firewall. The college already has a registered domain (austin.cc.tx.us). I'm running FreeBSD 2.2.6. I run this server as a FTP and HTTPD Server. In a sence this server acts has a intranet server. My question is - when I access the server this is the address that I use: http://m198214188122.austin.cc.tx.us/ ftp://m198214188122.austin.cc.tx.us/ or ftp m198214188122.austin.cc.tx.us But what I want the address to read is: http://etv.austin.cc.tx.us/ ftp://etv.austin.cc.tx.us/ or ftp etv.austin.cc.tx.us What do I need to do to make this work. The college already had the austin.cc.tx.us domain. I just want to name the machine.

I have /usr/local/man/man1/ssh.1.gz. They don't exist on your system? Anyway, you're not the first to report this. I think the problem might be a misunderstanding of what 'mv -f' means to FreeBSD. It does not work like 'rm -f,' which suppresses nearly all error conditions. For example, if there is no file 'foo' in the pwd, [139:~] rm -f foo [140:~] mv -f foo bar mv: rename foo to bar: No such file or directory rm exits on a 0, and mv bails out. The Makefile for ssh2 should check for existence before trying to move the manpages. You should go into your Makefile and either comment out or delete the offending lines. It shouldn't break anything. MHO. HTH. -- Crist J.

Hi, AFAIK FreeBSD needs directories like "C:\BIN" to exist to install from another partition... Can you confirm that you've copied the distribution to the ROOT directory of your DOS drive? - And not hidden it under say "C:\FREEBSD\" or it's equivalent? Also, if you can - try not to post to this list in HTML format, as some people can't read it! :( Regards, Karl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Feb 26 12:40:11 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from shell2.la.best.com (shell2.la.best.com [209.24.216.141]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A382514FBB for ; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 12:40:08 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from nugundam@shell2.la.best.com) Received: (from nugundam@localhost) by shell2.la.best.com (8.9.3/8.9.2/best.sh) id MAA03834; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 12:38:51 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <19990226123851.A2723@la.best.com> Date: Fri, 26 Feb 1999 12:38:51 -0800 From: "Joseph T.

The only problem I have is that it dies whenever I use it. The message is /usr/include/machine/ansi.h invalid use of long This is because the release of lcc in the ports does not support long long. The current release does support long long, but the port for it has not been made yet. So my questions are, is someone working on the port or does anyone know how to get the port to work as it is now. I would guess that if this port simply did not work it would be marked as broken, but that is not the case. I'll attempt later to see what I can do about getting the current release to build, but at this time I am unable to do so.

With BugTrapper, the notion of reproducing bugs no longer exists. As a software developer, you know how time-consuming and unpredictable it is to analyze and fix bugs. Go to http://www.ralgi.com/bugtrapper and discover how BugTrapper is revolutionizing your quest for quality software. Similar to a "black box" aircraft flight recorder, MuTek's BugTrapper traps bugs by generating a log of how and where bugs occurred, providing the exact execution path that caused the problematic behavior. Once a bug is trapped in this log, it cannot escape until it's fixed. "I expect MuTek's BugTrapper to help my team deliver the highest quality code efficiently. We tested BugTrapper with Microsoft Word and BugTrapper traced its execution without any modifications to winword.exe." --Mike Kelly, Lead Software Engineer, Office Group Microsoft Corporation BugTrapper features: -- Automated tracing system (results available in 10 minutes) -- No recompilation or relink of application sources, object or executable files needed -- Remote troubleshooting solution -- Multi-threading and multi-processing support -- Trace any executable compiled in Visual Studio 4.1 or later, including Visual C++ and Visual Basic -- Support for Win95, Win98, WinNT 4.0 and Windows 2000 ..and much, much more.

In a nutshell: I've got two systems. One is my desktop machine, running a (mostly stock) Red Hat Linux 5.2. Just to test it (since I know more about Linux system administration) I got the cable modem up and running using dhcp on this box. Now I want some security, a web server, and all that, so I have another box with FreeBSD 2.2.7 and two NICs. Using static routing (no dhcp) I've got the BSD box able to access the internet, as well as the internal network (10.0.0.0), running through a 10bit hub. The Linux box can access the internal network, but *not* the internet. Previously I had the BSD box acting as a gateway for several Linux boxes via a ppp0 interface (regular phone modem - bleh) and I haven't changed any configuration options other than routing since then, so it should still be set up to be a gateway just fine. (that is, gateway_enable="YES" in rc.conf and confirmed with sysctl) The Linux box can ping the internet address of the gateway and receive a response, but pinging any other host on the internet gives 100% packet loss.

(I'm sure the only reason they care is for dhcp, which I'm not using anyways.) Anyone have any thoughts? This all looks right to me - it's like the bsd box just isn't behaving as a gateway, except that it worked fine for months and I haven't changed anything except the routes. -----== Sent via Deja News, The Discussion Network ==----- http://www.dejanews.com/ Easy access to 50,000+ discussion forums To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Feb 26 15:24: 7 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from hawaii.conterra.com (hawaii.conterra.com [209.12.164.32]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D2DD314FD9 for ; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 15:24:00 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from myself@conterra.com) Received: from dmaddox.conterra.com (myself@dmaddox.conterra.com [209.12.169.48]) by hawaii.conterra.com (8.8.8/8.8.7) with ESMTP id SAA05029; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 18:23:43 -0500 (EST) Received: (from myself@localhost) by dmaddox.conterra.com (8.9.3/8.9.1) id SAA01612; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 18:23:44 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from myself) Date: Fri, 26 Feb 1999 18:23:43 -0500 From: "Donald J .

Actually I'm not too sure what I'm running (how do I check?) but I must have *some* sort of IP masquerading running, since this setup (using 10.0.0.0 locally but accessing the internet through the bsd gateway) was the exact same one that I used when I had the bsd box as a normal modem gateway. The only difference now is that it's two NICs (one to the internal network and one to the cable modem) rather than a single NIC (to the internal network) and a phone modem (ppp via tun0). -----== Sent via Deja News, The Discussion Network ==----- http://www.dejanews.com/ Easy access to 50,000+ discussion forums To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Feb 26 15:46:35 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from resnet.uoregon.edu (resnet.uoregon.edu [128.223.144.32]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1788E14CA3 for ; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 15:46:33 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu) Received: from localhost (dwhite@localhost) by resnet.uoregon.edu (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA20275; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 15:45:01 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu) Date: Fri, 26 Feb 1999 15:45:00 -0800 (PST) From: Doug White To: "Victor M.

You can't do anything about this from the FreeBSD end of things. The systems will argue with each other until one gives up. Now, if you have smart network equipment, you may be able to lock the server's IP to a particular port or Ethernet address or disable the offending machine's port.

There used to be a term for this - called "Arp Wars" (as both systems will send ARP replies - claiming themselves as the owner of the IP) , there's not a lot you can do to prevent it... In reality, if the other machine is a MS machine (i.e. 95/98 etc.) it will back-down and display an error to the user... It then usally disables it's network stack, the FreeBSD box will usually recover after the ARP's have timed out... (at least this is what we've found). At the end of the day, there is no easy way to prevent this AFAIK. -Kp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Feb 26 15:50:29 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from caladan.tdx.co.uk (caladan.tdx.co.uk [195.188.177.4]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E941A14FF2 for ; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 15:50:26 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kpielorz@caladan.tdx.co.uk) Received: from localhost (kpielorz@localhost) by caladan.tdx.co.uk (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id XAA66668; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 23:49:58 GMT Date: Fri, 26 Feb 1999 23:49:58 +0000 (GMT) From: Karl Pielorz To: Scott Madley Cc: Ben Smithurst , Tyler Smith , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Help In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Fri, 26 Feb 1999, Scott Madley wrote: > bravo, well said.... > > On Fri, 26 Feb 1999, Ben Smithurst wrote: > > > 4.

Thanks. > > Joe Clarke If I can believe what I have read on the Tom's Hardware web site, the Pentium III is just a PII core with the SIMS instruction set added (which is similar to the 3DNow instruction set on the AMD K6-2 processors). You will see absolutely no performance improvement from a PIII over a PII unless any software you're using specifically supports SIMS. The upcoming K6-3 has me waiting anxiously, however, since it should have a noticeable performance improvement over the K6-2 because of the on-chip L2 cache (256k) running at core clock speed (it is still a K6-2 core, AFAIK). The K6-2 has already given all of the Intel processors a good run for the money, and I'm rather hoping the K6-3 will provide no reason to buy a PII or PIII. :-) -- Chris Dillon - cdillon@wolves.k12.mo.us - cdillon@inter-linc.net /* FreeBSD: The fastest and most stable server OS on the planet.

US sites are NOT excluded from the search, they were just poorly labeled. The Mirror Sites page is now alphabetical by country name and hosts that live in freebsd.org are now listed under the United States rather than primary freebsd sites.

Maybe it's already being thought and discussed but anyways here goes: 1) How do we start setting up LAN at home? What are the requirement needed? Example: To connect 2 PCs running FreeBSD 2.2.8 (1 acting as server & the other as w/station) via 56k dial-up modem? I'd read it in PPP-Pendantic but the senario is a bit different... 2) How do we configure KDE? I had installed it via /stand/sysinstall but I could not find in in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11.. Instead it is in /usr/ports.. Any site which shows exactly how to do this? 3) How do we set-up a firewall over our office intranet? E.g: I'd like to bar a vendor from accessing our private homepages (he's working at our place temporarily) but at the same time he can surf the internet? Tricky huh? Help and advise are appreciated.

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

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. In- evitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the first edition of 19 July 1996, please check ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/. This list is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the book to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD 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.

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 that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 148 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Modern shells supply command line editing which resembles the editors vi or Emacs. In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering Page 152 ________ After figure 10-8, add the following text: It would be tedious for every user to put settings in their private initialization files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file. For the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the corresponding individual files. In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environment variables at a global level. Changing your shell ___________________ The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing. See page 148 for details of how to enable it. You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection. You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash, also in the Ports Collection. If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's an example before: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /bin/csh Full Name: Jack Velte Location: Office Phone: Home Phone: You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this to: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash Full Name: Jack Velte Location: On the road Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999 Home Phone: Page 9 Install ports when installing the system 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 You can then change the shell for root as described above. Page 10 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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 169 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: The standard solution for these problems is to relocate the /tmp file system to a different directory, say /usr/tmp, and create a symbolic link from /usr/tmp to /tmp--see , page *******, for more details. As we shall see, /var is a file system intended to store data that changes frequently. Thanks to Charlie Sorsby for drawing this to my attention. 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 Page 11 Install ports when installing the system 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: 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 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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: 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 for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Another line in /etc/rc.conf refers to the line printer daemon: Page 13 Install ports when installing the system 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 ________ In the section Installing the sample desktop, replace the first paragraph with: You'll find all the files described in this chapter on the first CD-ROM (Installation CD-ROM) in the directory /book. Remember that you must mount the CD-ROM before you can access the files--see page 175 for further details. The individual scripts are in the directory /book/scripts, but you'll probably find it easier to install them with the script install-desktop: Thanks to Chris Kaiser for drawing this to my attention. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in the directory /src. Replace the example with: Page 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/src/ssys.[a-d]* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel , Suttipan Limanond and Satwant for finding this one in several small slices. Page 257 ________ Replace the paragraph Berkeley Packet Filter with: pseudo-device bpfilter ______________________ The Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) allows you to capture packets crossing a network interface to disk or to examine them with the tcpdump program. Note that this capability represents a significant compromise of network security. The number after bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes that can use the facility. Not all network interfaces support bpf. In order to use the Berkeley Packet Filter, you must also create the device nodes /dev/bpf0 to /dev/bpf3 (if you're using the default number 4). Current- ly, MAKEDEV doesn't help much--you need to create each device separately: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV bpf0 # ./MAKEDEV bpf1 # ./MAKEDEV bpf2 # ./MAKEDEV bpf3 Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 264 ________ In the list of disk driver flags, add: o Bit 12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode). If this bit is not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode. Page 15 Install ports when installing the system o In CHS mode, if bits 11 to 8 are not equal to 0, they specify the number of heads to assume (between 1 and 15). The driver recalculates the number of cylinders to make up the total size of the disk. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' ______________________________________ Add a third point to what you need to know: 3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates. This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. ___________________________________ Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 294 ________ Add the following section: Problems executing Linux binaries _________________________________ One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux binaries is that they usually contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries. They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries. That's not really a problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 2.2.7 understands is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format as well, and of course that's the default. If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on Page 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition such a system, you must brand the executable using the program brandelf. For example, to brand the StarOffice program swriter3, you would enter: # brandelf -t linux /usr/local/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3 Thanks to Dan Busarow for bringing this to my attention. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the corresponding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: Page 17 Install ports when installing the system www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 422 ________ Replace the text above the example with: tcpdump is a program which monitors a network interface and displays selected information which passes through it. It uses the Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf), an optional component of the kernel. It is not included in the GENERIC kernel: see page 257 for information on how to configure it. If you don't configure the Berkeley Packet Filter, you will get a message like tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: device not configured If you forget to create the devices for bpf, you will get a message like: tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: No such file or directory Since tcpdump poses a potential security problem, you must be root in order to run it. The simplest way to run it is without any parameters. This will cause tcpdump to monitor and display all traffic on the first active network interface, normally Ethernet: Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 423 ________ The description at the top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address instead of Ethernet address. In addition, a page number reference is incorrect. Replace the paragraph with: o Line 1 shows an ARP request: system presto is looking for the Ethernet address of wait. It would appear that wait is currently not responding, since there is no reply. o Line 2 is not an IP message at all. tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and the beginning of the packet. We don't consider this kind of request in this Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition book. o Line 3 is a broadcast ntp message. We looked at ntp on page 160. o Line 4 is another attempt by presto to find the IP address of wait. o Line 5 is a broadcast message from bumble on the rwho port, giving information about its current load averages and how long it has been up. See the man page for rwho on page 1167 for more information. o Line 6 is from a TCP connection between port 6000 on freebie and port 1089 on presto. It is sending 384 bytes (with the sequence numbers 536925467 to 536925851; see page 305), and is acknowledging that the last byte it received from presto had the sequence number 325114346. The window size is 17280. o Line 7 is another ARP request. presto is looking for the Ethernet address of freebie. How can that happen? We've just seen that they have a TCP connection. In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes. It's quite possible that all connections between presto and freebie have been dormant for this period, so presto needs to find freebie's IP address again. o Line 8 is the ARP reply from freebie to presto giving its Ethernet address. o Line 9 shows a reply from presto on the connection to freebie that we saw on line 6. It acknowledges the data up to sequence number 536925851, but doesn't send any itself. o Line 10 shows another 448 bytes of data from freebie to presto, and acknowledging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6. Thanks to Sergei S. Laskavy for drawing this to my attention. Page 450: anonymous ftp _______________________ Replace the paragraph starting with Create a user ftp: Create a user ftp, with the anonymous ftp directory as the home directory and the shell /dev/null. Using /dev/null as the shell makes it impossible to log in as user ftp, but does not interfere with the use of anonymous ftp. ftp can be a member of group bin, or you can create a new group ftp by adding the group to /etc/group. See page 138 for more details of adding users, and the man page on page 805 for adding groups. Page 19 Install ports when installing the system Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for drawing this to my attention. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd. Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very Page 20 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition important: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%.

What kind of drive is it? Do you know what the drive parameters are for that drive? The type of drive is shown at boot and you don't need to open the computer to find what the parameters are supposed to be. I have a Phoenix that will not detect any of my large drives properly. It will still continue to work if the proper parameters are passed to it. You just may have to let it rediscover the drives or enter the information by hand. I have seen this happen but it is usally when the battery is just about dead and it keeps losing the contents of the cmos. When you boot, press the , or what ever you need to get into the bios and look at the parameters entered for the drive. Right now they are obviously bogus and to fix it you have to reenter the proper values.

I tried last night to install the BSD copy I have which is version 2.2.5. I had a lot of problems even after I switched tout the DVD drive for a regular CD drive. While the regular CD drive worked, I had repeated problems first with the DVD drive, then the screen, finally the intellimouse. Is there a set of instructions which may make the installation a little easier. As I said volume on the hard drive is not an issue. I created the area for the BSD installation using powerquest's partition magic. If anyone has some suggestions, like a step by step meathod for an idiot, I would appreciate them. thank you.

Upgrading a package and reasonable OS package update intervals. /usr/ports/sysutils/{pib,pkg_version} may address these issues for you. I particularly like pib for its ability to scan thru /usr/ports/distfiles and weed out the stale images. You have to decide for yourself what reasonable update intervals are. FreeBSD's ports don't upgrade very nicely. One really needs to pkg_delete the old one before installing the new one. When dependancies on other ports is involved, it can get pretty involved removing the other ports too. For instance: XFree86. > User Administration: > 6.

The real meat is in /etc/{spwd.db,pwd.db}. vipw(1) will edit /etc/master.passwd then generate the .db files which libc uses for password queries. Using vipw to change one's shell is like driving a Hummer to the grocery store. Use chsh(1), which lets mere users select their shell. -- 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.

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 folks... Beginning about two weeks ago, we have had a recurring problem with a public [outside of the firewall] server. Nearly every day it freezes with the following messages: Fatal trap 1: priviledged instruction fault while in kernel mode instruction pointer = 0x8:0xf010a93b stack pointer = 0x10:0xefbffe30 frame pointer = 0x10:0xefbffe98 code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b = DPL 0, pres1, def32 1 gran 1 prcessor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0 current process = 846 (login) interrupt mask = panic: privileged instruction fault *Why* login I wonder??? It's one of the things that has raised my index of suspicion here. This machine was a solid performer until this started, needing reboot only once every few months. It's user base is *very* static as well. Hardware is a 133mhz 486, 64mb. Several NFS mounts, as well as a 1.6gb local drive. I know there was a lot of frozen OS's reported lately over nmap scans, would the picture I have drawn here be compatible with such a theory? Is there anything I can do to help track this down (short of diverting every single packet for later search)? Very Concerned, J.A. Terranson sysadmin@mfn.org -- If Governments really want us to behave like civilized human beings, they should give serious consideration towards setting a better example: Ruling by force, rather than consensus; the unrestrained application of unjust laws (which the victim-populations were never allowed input on in the first place); the State policy of justice only for the rich and elected; the intentional abuse and occassionally destruction of entire populations merely to distract an already apathetic and numb electorate... This type of demogoguery must surely wipe out the fascist United States as surely as it wiped out the fascist Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The views expressed here are mine, and NOT those of my employers, associates, or others. Besides, if it *were* the opinion of all of those people, I doubt there would be a problem to bitch about in the first place... -------------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Feb 26 19: 5:45 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from awfulhak.org (awfulhak.force9.co.uk [195.166.136.63]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D975B15082 for ; Fri, 26 Feb 1999 19:05:28 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from brian@Awfulhak.org) Received: from keep.lan.Awfulhak.org (keep.lan.Awfulhak.org [172.16.0.8]) by awfulhak.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id DAA14733; Sat, 27 Feb 1999 03:05:10 GMT (envelope-from brian@Awfulhak.org) Received: from keep.lan.Awfulhak.org (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by keep.lan.Awfulhak.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id DAA05185; Sat, 27 Feb 1999 03:04:50 GMT (envelope-from brian@keep.lan.Awfulhak.org) Message-Id: <199902270304.DAA05185@keep.lan.Awfulhak.org> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.0.2 2/24/98 To: Leif Neland Cc: Brian Somers , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: user-ppp, dialin and dialout, fixed ip.

Even in dialback mode, the calling ppp doesn't hang around and answer the phone - it just exits and waits for the peer to call back.

It's not an in-depth technical discussion, so I think it belongs on -questions. It would be nice to know if you have any other messages along with it. One possibility, which the hackers mentioned, is that it's a telnet to the smtp port which didn't send a message. In normal use, it's probably the result of a connection which failed, possibly because your system rejected it as spam.

I have a Pentium 90 machine with multiple OS's on it. FreeBSD is one of them. I am reletively new to Unix and FreeBSD. I had partitioned my first drive: OS/2 Boot manager/ MSDOS / Win95 / FreeBSD. I was trying to mount the different partiions to FreeBSD to identify which dev/wd0s? was with witch partition. I had successfully mounted the MSDOS partition and was able to read it aswell mount the Win95 partition. I attempted the next one in line {/dev/wd0s4} in hind site i should have guessed it was the OS/2 Boot manager partion. when I had mounted the partition this triggered off something because some numbers spewd across the bottom of the screen and the system rebooted itself. upon rebooting the kernel would load. I know this because I can see the deviceses being polled. When it identifies the my pentium chip it then gives me a message : Warning: / was not properly dismounted It then sits there and does nothing. I tried Ctrl-Atl-Del after sometime the system then syncs itself and reboots. I have added the the -v option at boot time and the additional messages before the warning indicate that the dev/wd0s? I had mounted are listed. I guess I need to remove those from the boot sequence but I cannot get past the warning message each time I reboot the machine. One of my options is to re-install FreeBSD, however I don't think mounting an incompatible partition should have gotten my into so much trouble.

It's not clear from what you're saying whether you *can* reboot the machine.

Mounting the slice itself just quickened something that was going to happen down the road. Try doing the good ol' fdisk /mbr with a dos boot disk. After that you may want to boot off of FreeBSD boot disk, resetup your slices. Then you'll probally have to nuke and reload Win95 I bet, you maybe able to save it, but I bet that it'll happen again within three months if you use Win95 fairly often.

Date: Fri, 26 Feb 1999 23:19:49 -0800 From: "Mike O'Brien" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I just tried installing the Linux ELF version of RealVideo Player 5.0 on my FreeBSD 2.2.6 system. All seemed to go well - the application did bring up a window and did not dump core, and was correctly invoked by Netscape. It said it was making a connection to the feed site, and buffered up data...then it just sat there, showing the initial video frame, but not actually playing anything. The slider bar could be moved, and that caused it to re-buffer and show a new frame, but once more it just sat there instead of actually playing. Has anyone else gotten this to work on 2.2.6? Or is the Linux emulation in that version of FreeBSD just too far behind the times? Thanks!

Take a look at isdn@freebsd.org mailing list or projects section at the web. FreeBSD 3.1-release has included i4b in source tree, so isdn support is *integrated* in FreeBSD, JesusR.

If you have already re-built the kernel, take a look at the GENERIC or LINT config files for more information. If you have never recompiled your kernel, then wdc1 should be enable by default. Try booting with -vc to enter the USERCONFIG and check in there to make sure that "wdc1" is not disabled. Also, if you go to http://www.freebsd.org/support.html#mailing-list there are 2 links that should be of interest to you. One for browsing the mailing list archives http://www.freebsd.org/mail/ and one for searching them http://www.freebsd.org/search/search.html.

No. This is nothing to do with grep really, you need to learn how your shell interprets quote characters. If you say $ grep 'the dog said "woof"' * then grep doesn't see the outer ' marks. They just tell your shell to pass what's between them as one argument. grep just sees what's between them, and uses that as the expression to search for, like the grep man page says. Read the manual pages for sh(1) and csh(1) about quoting. If you're using bash or tcsh, for example, they should use similar rules to sh and csh respectively, but you may like to check their pages too for good measure. -- Ben Smithurst ben@scientia.demon.co.uk send a blank message to ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk for PGP key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Feb 27 6: 0:22 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from scientia.demon.co.uk (scientia.demon.co.uk [212.228.14.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E427E15006 for ; Sat, 27 Feb 1999 06:00:19 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ben@scientia.demon.co.uk) Received: from scientia.demon.co.uk (ident=ben) by scientia.demon.co.uk with local (Exim 2.12 #12) id 10GjnS-000FUD-00; Sat, 27 Feb 1999 13:28:46 +0000 (envelope-from ben@scientia.demon.co.uk) Date: Sat, 27 Feb 1999 13:28:46 +0000 From: Ben Smithurst To: peter kok Cc: freebsd Subject: Re: mail question Message-ID: <19990227132846.A59481@scientia.demon.co.uk> References: <36D76953.EFA7247B@sweda.com.hk> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95.3i In-Reply-To: <36D76953.EFA7247B@sweda.com.hk> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG peter kok wrote: > Your message ... > did not reach the following recipient(s): > > ODSNEU/ODS/AGR on Sat, 27 Feb 1999 04:12:11 +0100 > The recipient name is not recognized > MSEXCH:MSExchangeMTA:LG_CH:CHGENEXCH02 > > > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > but i can send to this recipient before. > do you think the problem is my mail server or receiver?

I've got a 200 meg partition (c:) on my HD along with a 3.8 gig blank partition set aside for my FreeBSD slices. I get through the install menu just fine, but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to get it to go grab the files from c:\freebsd\* It just keeps giving me the old cannot find files type error and says that the installation finished unsuccessfully. I'm booting off of the Kern.flp images I put onto floppy in DOS. after which I stick in the mfsroot.flp floppy, which also goes well. go through the entire routine, but I can't get it to recognize that the files are in c:\freebsd\*.. What Do I DO?? Somebody Please help me.. I've been at this for about 17 hours now, and I cannot go to sleep until I make SOME progress.. BTW, anybody that mentions that I need to somehow place the boot.flp image (which is clearly 2,880K) onto a 1.44M Floppy gets the pleasure of explaining to me how to do this magic trick, as I've tried several times with no luck (yes, downloaded in Binary mode) BTW, part 2, anybody that tells me that I am supposed to use the setup.exe that is in the archive, gets to draw me a map because I've been through the entire archive searching for it and cannot find it to save my life.

It will not hang *every* boot, but every several. It will complain every time, though. Linux fdisk doesn't place logical partitions exactly on cylinder bounds, even when given sizes in cylinders, which results in what freebsd sees as a bad disklabel. rick -- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Feb 27 8:36:57 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from vanessa.eliuk.org (pme63.sunshine.net [209.17.178.63]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 049E0150AE for ; Sat, 27 Feb 1999 08:36:54 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kevin_eliuk@sunshine.net) Received: from localhost (cagey@localhost) by vanessa.eliuk.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id IAA00572; Sat, 27 Feb 1999 08:36:27 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from cagey@vanessa.eliuk.org) Date: Sat, 27 Feb 1999 08:35:57 -0800 (PST) From: "Kevin G.

My card seems to work after that but when I reset the computer all the settings go away and I have these lines in my "dmesg" Probing for PnP devices: CSN 1 Vendor ID: CTL0025 [0x25008c0e] Serial 0x0002b0e7 Comp ID: @@@0000 [0x00000000] This is a SB16 PnP, but LDN 0 is disabled Is there a way I can save my settings with 3.1 so that I don't have to go into the "config" menu every time I boot? Is there a file or something I need to edit or is this a command? Thanks.

Hdisk0 [Quantom 1.2 Gb] : OS/2 Boot Manager / MSDos {fat16} / Win95 {fat16}/ FreeBSD Hdisk1 [Maxtor 5.1 Gb] : OS/2 {Hpfs} /Extended Partition ( made up of a mixture of Hpfs, fat16 and fat32 logical partitions and some free space). I do have intentions at a later date of switching the two hard disks arround and making the Mator Hdisk0 and the Quantom Hdisk1. This would require reloading all the OS's. This is time consuming and I don't have all that time at the moment.

Some Things I have tried since my first posting of this note: I have booted up under OS/2 and remove the the Boot Manger Partition. Made the FreeBSD partition the Active partition and FreeBSD will still not come active. I have tried making that partition a FAT partition and no head way. From the DOS partition I created a FreeBSD Fixit disk from the CDrom. I've booted from Diskette however I am sure to use the diskette to bring up a Unix system it tells me that I am missing two Boot.* files. Perhaps I could boot from the Live system CD. But my BIOS does not support booting from CDrom.

Yes but if you have a lot of sites, say ftp1,ftp2, ftp3.freebsd.org you can compare and it's quite unlikely that all are compromised at the same time. I would trust ftp.freebsd.org with this respect.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="=====================_920025638==_" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG --=====================_920025638==_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Greetings folks, I am experiencing a slight problem with some DNS related issues. I have been running Bind 4.9.6REL2 on my freebsd system for quite some time, with no problems at all. I recently had to remap my network to a new block of ip addresses. I run my own primary nameserver. After a few boneheaded mistakes on my part, I finally got the addresses and names in place, and received no error messages from syslogd, when I start named. Here is the problem. It has been 5 days since I reloaded my nameserver. After this time, I can usually use nslookup to look up my changes on other name servers on the internet. I obviously can see the changes when I use my server mail.dcoisp.net (my primary nameserver) as the default server in nslookup. I like to use nslookup to query other nameservers to make sure of my changes. Usually after a day or two, I can see the changes on other servers. This, however, is not the case now. In fact, one of my machines has somehow retained its' old ip address assignment, if you try to look it up on other nameservers on the internet. The host name is www.dcoisp.net The strange thing is, other domains that my nameserver is responsible for, show the correct names and addresses. I am attaching my main domain db file, and my ip address db file. Sorry if this e-mail is a little long, but I am trying to include as much as I can. Keep in mind that I am receiving no error messages when I run named. Should I be concerned, or should I just wait it out and the changes will be bisible soon?

I don't get any errors on startup. It comes right up. It just won't play anything. It sits there instead, all buttons active but "choked". I should have checked the 'questions' archive and I apologize; it was late last night when I checked the FAQ and Handbook archive and I thought the questions were included. I'm betting my upcoming 3.1 upgrade will make it all work. Thanks!

My modem worked just fine all through the 2.2.x, and my upgrade from 2.2.6 -> 2.2.8 was accomplished by modem (due to lack of a working ethernet card.) Recently, I attempted to install hylafax and this is when I first noticed the problem. Running the setup utilities failed to communicate with the modem. I tried using ppp in term mode and could not send commands to the modem, and I also tried kermit's equivalent of term mode and had the same problem. My modem is on sio1 and my ppp is set up for /dev/cuaa1, which is where it has always worked. I also tried /dev/cuaa0 and had the same lack of success. Here is what my kernel config has (based on the man sio entry): device sio0 at isa? port "IO_COM1" tty irq 4 device sio1 at isa? port "IO_COM2" tty irq 3 And here is dmesg sio0: irq maps: 0x1 0x11 0x1 0x1 sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on isa sio0: type 16550A sio1: irq maps: 0x1 0x9 0x1 0x1 sio1 at 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 on isa sio1: type 16550A sio0 is where my serial mouse used to be until my MB was upgraded, and the modem has been used since the upgrade so I doubt it is a hardware/bios problem. Have I misconfigured the kernel or did I just pick up some bad sources?

This setup has been OK for > over a Year now. You've had a Win95 partition last a whole year? That's some kind of record!:) Win95 corrupts it's own files and filesystem. That is why I personally nuke and reload it on all my systems every six months. It's also possible that Win95's swap file temporarily took up to much space and overwrote the filesystem too. (For some reason, win95 swap is to stupid to realize when it runs out of hard drive space.) It's possible that you still didn't have the problem, but like I said, I'm willing to bet that it's part of the problem. The only other thing I can think is that it's possibly the OS/2 boot manager, I dimly remeber people having problems with that before.

Remove its cause, not the effect. It's a serious message. In any case, the message comes from here, in /sys/netinet/if_arp.c: if (sdl->sdl_alen && bcmp((caddr_t)ea->arp_sha, LLADDR(sdl), sdl->sdl_alen)) if (rt->rt_expire) log(LOG_INFO, "arp: %s moved from %6D to %6D on %s%d\n", inet_ntoa(isaddr), (u_char *)LLADDR(sdl), ":", ea->arp_sha, ":", ac->ac_if.if_name, ac->ac_if.if_unit); else { log(LOG_ERR, "arp: %6D attempts to modify permanent entry for %s on %s%d", ea->arp_sha, ":", inet_ntoa(isaddr), ac->ac_if.if_name, ac->ac_if.if_unit); goto reply; } The message is written to the kernel log at the priority LOG_INFO. If you want, you can stop LOG_INFO messages with syslog.conf, but you'll lose *all* info messages. If you really want to do this, I'd suggest you change the code above instead: omit the log call.

I then specified my modems serial port in the ppp configuration file. I then executed the ppp command => term at the ppp prompt => then I got an error stating that my modem was not configured. How do I configure it? Is this a sign that I might have a WinModem? Previously I had used the wrong serial port in the ppp config file, and I got a different error. When I specified the correct serial port I got this error, so I am pretty sure that It finds the modem.

It's hard to believe how long this problem's been around, but I've fallen (into it) and I can't get up. I installed 3.1 over FTP (thanks to Brian and all other PPP documentors). My set up is PPro180, IDE1 has 1.5G with Win95 on master and CD-Rom on the slave. IDE2 has a 6.1G onto which I've installed FreeBSD 3.1. I dedicated the whole disk during setup, and it appears that booteasy was only installed on the first disk. When I boot booteasy gives me a choice of F1 or F5, I choose F5 and get a message that says Press Enter to boot immediately or any other key to enter command mode. If I press enter it goes through the probe just fine and then panics with error 6 Cannot mount root. Right before that, for some strange reason it tries to change root device to wd1s1a (and wd1a) which is probably my Win95 disk. Anyhow, I cannot seem to figure out how to tell FreeBSD to change root device to wd2s1a. Any suggestions? Thanks Rudy. P.S. I'm not on the questions mailing list so could you please reply directly. _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?

There are 3 scsi controllers in 2 pci cards: Adaptec 2940UW in the first card and Diamond Fireport40 Dual (ncr controllers) in the second card. It appears that FBSD thinks that there is only 1 scsi bus on all 3 controllers which I find very confusing and odd given that there are separate scsi cables on each card. In practice it means that I cannot have a disk on aha with ID 0 and another one on ncr with ID 0, as that counts as conflict and at least one of these two won't be visible. SCAM if enabled, will keep ID all different regardless of a particular controller. I don't know if I really managed to misconfigure my disk but my kernel config file has only lines there are straightforward copies of LINT file and I do use separate scbus? identifiers, but they obvuisly means something else than what kernel prints in the dmesg file. (I don't have a copy of my kernel config file handy, but will get it). My dmesg output follows, does anybody have any idea what's happenening?

This my way, not necassarily everyones way. Lets assume you have 1 FreeBSD slice containing all your partitions(/,/var,/usr,...) on wd0 and want duplicate this same setup to wd1... NOTE: Remember, /stand/sysinstall, dump, and restore are your friends through this whole thing. 1) If you need to, add a second disk to system. Reboot... 2) Type /stand/sysintall at the prompt. 3) Select "5 Configure Do post-install configuration of FreeBSD" 4) Select "F Fdisk The disk Slice (PC-style partition) Editor " 5) Select wd1.. (<--example..) 5) Hack off a chunk of the disk for a FreeBSD slice at least the same size as the total data you want to copy or bigger or use the whole disk. Use option C to create, option S to make it bootable, enter the size of the slice, and then use option W to write the slice to the disk. Hint: Make sure you are doing this on the correct/new disk. 6) Select "L Label The disk Label editor" 7) Create your partitions within the slice of step 5. Here you would make /,/var,/usr and swap space and/or carve the slice up to mimic the old/source disk. Make some temp mount points, usually some subdirs under /mnt like /mnt/usr and /mnt/var, for the new/destination partitions. Make one temp subdir under /mnt for each new partition created. Use C to create a partition, set the size, set the temp mnt point and then Choose W to write each partition to the disk. Write down the device name assigned by label editor for each partition and the temp mount point the partition is attached to. 8) If all is well, all should be created and mounted. Lets assume a new/destination partition, wd1s1f, was created for the new /usr. It was temporarily mounted at /mnt/usr by the Label Editor. We need to copy the data from the old (/usr a.k.a. /dev/wd0s1f) to the new (/mnt/usr a.k.a /dev/wd1s1f). At the prompt try.. $ cd /mnt/usr <--- Very important to be cd'd into the directory you want to copy to... $ dump -0f - /dev/wd0s1f | restore xf - Restore will place the dump in the current working dir. Thats why you need to be cd'd into it. 9) Do this, step 8, for each old/source partition that needs to be copied to a new/destination partiton. 10) Oh.. I forgot... Before attempting step 1...

This machine already has an internl modem of 2400 baud. I want to put a new one most prob an external modem of higher speed w/o removing the old one. I am thinking of connecting it to one of the serial ports. So what are the kind of modems with which FreeBSD will work w/o much hassle and can we configure this modem by playing around with the serial port settings.
