You didn't say what system you were using. I am running 3.3Stable and my NIC parameters go into /etc/rc.conf. I have an ifconfig_fxp0 and a network_interfaces. I use my FreeBSD system as my demand dial router but that is the next level of information. Get your NIC running first.

Guilmette" Date: Sun, 31 Oct 1999 00:33:08 -0700 Message-ID: <6976.941355188@segfault.monkeys.com> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm at my wit's end. I'm using the stock bind 8.1.2 that came with FreeBSD 3.3 and I'm having one helluva time getting various reverse mapping stuff working right. I hope somebody will take pity on me and help me with the parts that aren't working. First let me say that all of my forward lookups seem to be working just fine. So that part is alright at least. Also, the reverse lookup for 127.0.0.1 seems to be working OK too. So here are the problems: Problem #1) Regardless of the fact that I seem to have setup my reverse lookup zone properly for the 127.0.0.* zone, every time named starts up it puts an error message in the syslog that says: Oct 31 00:01:48 segfault named[1963]: localhost.rev: No such file or directory What the heck is this "localhost.rev" stuff all about??? I've tried desperately to find out what is causing this message, but to no avail. I even ran "strings" on /usr/sbin/named and grepped the output of that for the string "rev" just to see if the named executable was even creating this message, but no dice. No such string in the executable! So where does this message come from and how can I get it to go away? The message doesn't seem to hurt anything, but it annoys me because I have a bad feeling that it is really trying to tell me that I screwed something up which is very fundamental. Problem #2) Try as I might, I have not been able to setup reverse DNS names for various RFC 1918 reserved IP addresses that I am using behind my firewall. For example, I'd like to setup a PTR record for the address 10.0.0.7 or maybe 192.168.0.7. WHY CAN'T I DO THIS? I have patterned everything I have done after the instructions (from the Grasshopper book) that I used to setup the reverse mapping for 127.0.0.1 and *that* seems to work OK. So why, oh why can't I get the same thing to work in the case of 10.0.0.7? This is *really* aggravating. I'm just building bind 8.2.2 now, and I plan to install it and try it in the vague hope that it may make things better, but I have a bad feeling that doing that won't change a thing.

The standard *doze* export version of Netscape actually has full 128 bit encryption but only with certain keys. Banks in foreign (to the US) countries can buy certificates which will turn on this 128bit encryption for *their* transactions with the customer.

Learning a lot here. Making great progress on my first FBSD box. Alas, I have another question. When I first started this box up it had no problems getting a DHCP address from my cable modem provider (rr.com). For some reason now the system refuses to get a DHCP addy. I can plug a static address in and it works fine (until the DHCP server gives out my address to someone else). I know there is nothing wrong with the cable modem as I can get leases from it using my wintendo box. the command i use in rc.conf is "ifconfig_xl0="DHCP" also when i use /stand/sysinstall and goto the network setup it asks if i want to obtain a DHCP lease, i tell it yes and nothing comes back to fill in the blanks. Ideas on how to correct? thanks.

It's hard to guess what you might be doing wrong since there are obviously some problems with how you've set up the reverse mapping for localhost too.

The hard is what makes it good. > ( or maybe that's just me being a control-freak again ). Generally agreed, but, for the sake of discussion, we have to consider the future. There will come a point in time, if FreeBSD is going to survive with reasonable PR, userbase, generic utility, etc., that it will have to consider joe enduser running the home box on cablenet. Joe user is not the professional Berserkeley type, nor the AT&T suits. But, he is the guy fed up with Gatesware, and has heard a little or a lot of buzz about this thing *nix (mostly via Penguin buzz) down at the coffeeshop or the bookstore. Now, if we, as Berserkely types want to compete in that market, for joe user, then we have to present ourselves a little better, or perhaps differently, than we would to the longhair bearded sandal crew that I grew up in. The sandal crew is gonna get it done, one way or the other. So, that's a null issue. But, I sense, from reading 500 emails a day, on the list (whew!), that there is a need for something less sandal crew, and a little more geard towards garnering our share of the Penguins-to-be. We can't expect to flesh out our flock by just catching the discontented Penguins. Although there is merit for using the Penguin school for our Basic Training, I think we should approach it more directly than that. Folks, the budding *nix community has gotten bigger than just the Berserkeley sandal crowd and the geek compsci majors. If we fail to accommodate the joe endusers, then we are missing the boat in a big way. How do we do that? Good question, but, there are some serious things that should be considered, based upon what I am gleaning from all the newsfeeds regarding *nix, as well as our own lists. 1. We do need some kind of better training algorithm for the newbie types that are not the professionals with years of experience, or the compsci majors. 2. We do need some serious on-line training materials, perhaps like some of the OSU courses, or that kind of thing, presented in a way that will immediately catch the incoming newbie, and guide them along. 3. We do need some kind of hands-one test drive machine, either via the website, OR, via something as watered down as a Training Wheels version of the system that comes up out of a dos shell. Such a version could be used for evaluation, for training, and for a one-upsmanship PR coup. The above is only IMHO, and we all know everyone is entitled to one IMHO, just like they are entitled to one arse. But, I do sense we can't remain the cloistered Berserkeley sandal crew, forever. > Is RTFM a prerequisite for new UNIX users? If they want to > get anything out of me it is, and I'm generally a nice guy. I think > most people feel the same way. RTFM is always important. But, I sense our FM's are needing some clarity. They are quite good for the professional, and most every tidbit is there, somewhere, but, sometimes it can be difficult to find. > If you've been monkey-trained to point and click, and you > are looking for a starting place, then master what you know: learn > dos inside and out, network functions, telnet, FTP, hosts, lmhosts, > establish a general knowledge of networking, write some batch files, > mess around with autoexec.bat and config.sys, learn a programming > language ( VB does not count ).

The problem is that joe enduser does not come from a dos background, anymore, so that method of training is gone. He can't just pick up a shell account anymore, because they are harder and harder to find with everything becoming webbized. He needs the account on his own hardware, for even the most basic training. Forget anything dos... dos does not exist anymore. You have to start WITH *nix directly. Now, the problem is getting joe enduser there, directly. > Will a try-out version of FBSD work...who knows? If it helps > build better users, then I'm all for it.

Whiners go elsewhere. Serious joe endusers are most welcome to sign on board. Perhaps it is time to finalize discussions, and take some proactive tack (to borrow buzzwords). > Last but not least, let's make a quick comparison.

Interesting aside with the auto bits. If you buy a hot rod, and you want to race with the bigboyz, you have to go through something like Bondurant's racing school, or that sort of thing, for hands-on training, before they even let you out with the 'vette. Sadly, with *nix, they shovel you out the door onto the track, and say crash first, and then ask for help, but first RTFM. Sadly, there aren't many Formula 1 or CART racing manuals to read. I still stand by my contention that we need something for the joe enduser crowd, rather than rely on Penguin Basic Training, (although that method seems to work, too).

NEVERMIND! Something that Kevin Street said made it all click, and I finally realized my incredibly stupid error. (I _was_ correct that something very fundamental was screwed up.) Here's the deal... I am/was accustomed to running named (8.2.x) AS DISTRIBUTED BY ISC.ORG. When using a straight-out-of-the-box named from ISC, the configuration file is in /etc/named.conf, and I had no idea that named could ever, or would ever be built in such a way as to make the default path for the configuration file be someplace else. Boy was I wrong! The named (8.1.2) binary that is being distributed with FreeBSD 3.3 has apparently been built so as to assume the default path to the configuration file is /etc/namedb/named.conf. I didn't know that. So of course, I was fiddling /etc/named.conf and making all of these local changes and setting up all sorts of elaborate stuff, and what do you know! None of it was ever even taking effect! Now that I know what the problem was (and now that I have made the file named /etc/namedb/named.conf just be a symlink to /etc/named.conf) things are working 100% better. My thanks to everyone who sent me responses. P.S. More questions: (1) Why was FreeBSD 3.3 distributed with what would seem to be such an out-of-date named? (2) Why was the named binary that is being distributed with FreeBSD 3.3 built to use a different default path for the configuration file from the one that (it seems) ISC recommends? Does this fall into the category of `annoyingly pointless incompatibilities'?

Machine A is a FreeBSD 2.x box. I do not know the exact version because I cannot connect to it right now. Machine B is a Red Hat Linux 6.0 installation. I can telnet to Machine B, but not Machine A. When I try to telnet to Machine A from Machine B, this is what happens: [roy@redhat roy]$ telnet myFreeBSDbox.com Trying 1.2.3.4... Connected to myFreeBSDbox. Escape character is '^]'. Connection closed by foreign host. [roy@redhat roy]$ Names & numbers have been changed for security reasons, but you get the point. It should also be told that the boxes are connected over a DSL line, and that both machines have an internal IP (non-routable, used only inside the network) and a (routable) IP address used by the rest of the internet. When the router receives a message from the internet, it looks at the destination IP (routable) and routes the message to the appropriate internal address. The problem is I cannot connect to machine A (myFreeBSDbox). It does not respond to any request over the network whatsoever, and cannot even be pinged from outside the network. If anyone has any suggestions, please write back.

It would also help quite a bit if there were some information about how and why this configuration was established in the first place.

As an aside, if you don't know what you have after you are done perhaps time with any of the aforesaid books should be spent BEFORE you install. Its really all there if you just look, though it has been my experiance that "handholding" is probably in short supply though IMHO, this isn't that big a deal. Just my 2cents worth.

The ports tree has nothing to do with installed, running software. If the program works now, it will operate in the exact same manner. It is analogous to CVSup'ing the FreeBSD source tree. Nothing on the running system is changed until you 'make world'. > Do I need to worry about a new version of a port not working on my > 3.1-stable system? Most ports should work fine across all 3.x systems. Most will even be fine for 2.2.8. > Will cron-ing a ports cvsup cause any problems for installed programs? > upgrading or removing them? No. Well, that is not true. When version numbers change, you will not be able to 'make deinstall' a port. However, this is easily worked around by doing a 'pkg_delete '. > basically, how the heck do I do this without messing up my system? CVSup'ing the ports tree cannot mess anything up until you go into a port and type 'make '. -- Crist J.

I ran into very similar problems. Bind 8.1.2 was causing timeouts and so I upgraded to 8.2.1. As you point out, the location of the config file is different between what is in FreeBSD 3.3 and what is in the 8.2.1 port. Also, the port itself is a bit of a hassle, because it installs into /usr/local/... and doesn't replace the obsolete Bind binaries. Earlier I had the same problems with FreeBSD 3.2 and so was disappointed that the September release of 3.3 didn't include the newer Bind which was released in June. In fact I was so anxious to fix my Bind problem that I uploaded the ISO disk image as soon as 3.3 came out, to no avail. Since it didn't fix my problem I avoided buying the CD-ROMs, so the upload definitely saved me some money. I don't know how things are in the Linux world, but this same situation was very typical for BSD/OS, the commercial version I used to use. Whenever a new release of BSD/OS came out there would be complaints that the distributed version of some random software was out of date. So FreeBSD is no worse in that respect, and given that the ports mechanism makes updating relatively easy, FreeBSD is IMO better than BSD/OS in regards to current versions. And since so much of FreeBSD is "volunteer", and it's all free, I really can't complain.

I recompile the kernel with "options "EXT2FS" ",and I try to mount the Linux file system using " mount -t ext2fs /dev/wd0s1 /mnt", the system tells me " wrong magic number 11d, ef5* expected for EXT2FS". What should I do? Let me describe how I install the system. I have no CD, so I first install DOS on my computer (2G Disk, I give 800M to DOS), then download all necessary distributions on DOS partition; then I install BSD on the unused disk, after I finish the BSD installation, I delete the DOS patition and install Linux on that 800M space. when all are done, 1. I boot up into Linux system: partition check gives message: hda1 hda2 hda3(hda5 hda6 hda7) "fdisk" tells me that BSD is on hda2, and hda1 is extended partition, hda5, hda6 and hda7 are Linux native or swap, and if I use 'b' to verify BSD slices,it's ok. I sucessfully mount the BSD file system under /mnt 2. I boot up into BSD "disklabel" can't give me any information on Linux partiton. I can't mount Linux under BSD I really want to how I can mount ext2fs under BSD. Please help me. Another question: Does FreeBSD 3.2 support Lucent wavelan wireless network card? How can I find information on how to install device driver, such as pcmcia driver, wavelan card driver ?I get a wavelan driver source code on some website, how can I make it work? When system is bootup, it finds my card in one slot, but I think it doesn't work because it has no proper driver. What can i do? Your helps are appreciate.

I think we are looking at things from different standpoints, but share some of the same goals. I like the idea of restructuring the learning approach. For most Unix users, the FMs, online information and faqs, etc are sufficient ( and for someone who is really interested in picking this stuff up, too ). But for today's typical newbie user we do need a more structured suggestion than "RTFM. Which one...? All of them." Maybe we can implement a reward-based system to keep them motivated. Have you ever seen someone study for an MCSE or CCIE exam? I think maybe creating a certification program might help in a several ways. 1) Keeps the user motivated 2) Provide staged learning objectives 3) Give direction and structure to an otherwise "learn whatever you can whenever you can" approach. 4) A reasonably priced exam could help the project financially. Now, to make this thing work, we would have to deem it as a "prestigious, but not impossible" development testing program. At least, we could expect a large group of users who fail the tests but still use the OS because they did learn something, like the OS, and will continue to learn through it's use ( bypassed the whole newbie stage ). At most, we have a large group of users who could easily step into any SA postition with ease and comfort, or who have the capability to contribute to the project. Not to mention the fact that they would be complete FreeBSD advocacy campaigners, seeing as how that's what they're now certified in. ( it's an ego thing, everyone does it. ) Some of the changes you are suggesting, require $$$. I know that there are several of us that would volunteer these services, but the whole PR thing kinda requires it. So we have one of two choices. We could make FreeBSD, $$$BSD and go against the Berkley tradition. Or a few of us can get together and begin promoting the helloutta it. The problem with the first is that it's not going to happen. The problem with the second is that the majority the people we are going to be publicizing to are going to be the same frustrated enduser Joe who started this message thread. And I don't blame them for being frustrated. I just respond differently. But if there's anything worse than no publicity it's bad publicity. So then we can talk about changing utilities to make them more "Joe-friendly." Making a more universally compatible install. More support for various hardware with pre-built drivers. In essence, you're asking for a lot more than just a new marketing approach. Drew P.S. The biggest problem with today's users is that they want to race before they can even drive. I think a drivers license is a prerequisite for entering a Bondurant course. Point taken, though.

This creates a small problem for me, because I do not have a DOS box in my room, and do not know how to get NASM to work the way I expect it to under FreeBSD. I noticed that NASM is located in the ports collection so I compiled it and have used it to assemble the .asm assembly code I used for DOS in class. The assembler does not give me any errors, but I cannot seem to get the programs to execute. In my most recent attempt I compiled the .asm into aoutb format and tried to link it into a .c program which calls it. The gcc c compiler gave me errors at this point, and I am now at a compleat loss. I have looked around FreeBSD-questions, and hackers archives for several hours but cannot seem to find anything that helps me. Is there any one out there that knows how to get NASM to make a file I can execute, or link into a c program!? Even a simple "hello world" example may help. Thanks a bunch in advance Isaac D.

So, i'm trying to build 'imlib' (to use with gnome components) on my system. to build this, i built GTK, libgif, libtiff, and all the other libs it requires. I put them all in /usr/local/lib, and their associated include files in /usr/local/include. The problem is that 'imlib' refuses to build, claiming that all of the above are not installed. this almost certainly seems to be because it can't find them in /usr/local (it's most likely just looking in /usr). So, the question is: how on earth do i set up the system so that /usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib are always set up for their respective purposes? I tried running ldconfig, and ran "ldconfig -R /usr/local/lib". Now when I run ldconfig -r, it lists all the libs in /usr/local/but, imlib still won't build for lack of finding anything. Any pointers or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! marc.

You probably can't. Most PCI modems are WinModems and are recognized by only the Windows operating systems. Check out your model at http://www.o2.net/~gromitkc/winmodem.html. This is really a Linux list but they have the same problem with Winmodems that we do. If it is a Winmodem, take it back and get a real modem that is on Clark's list. You might also consider an external. Externals cost $20 more but if one gets wedged, you can cycle power on it a lot better than having to turn the pc off and back on. Alway check your hardware out for acceptability to an OS before you purchase something.

Why do you insist on compiling it yourself and then ask questions on how to build it when: a) you can just have easily done it out of ports b) you could have looked at how the ports system 'fixes' the problem you're having. c) someone worked hard on porting it for you. Yes, I know rarely a port can install in such a way that isn't optimal for you, but then that can easily be solved by using send-pr to ask the port maintainer to assist you. If you want to work on porting applications then work on something that _isn't_ ported and submit it as a port, people will be glad to assist you on the way. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Oct 31 18:53: 3 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from fw.wintelcom.net (ns1.wintelcom.net [209.1.153.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4A8FA14DF5 for ; Sun, 31 Oct 1999 18:53:02 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bright@wintelcom.net) Received: from localhost (bright@localhost) by fw.wintelcom.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id TAA13762; Sun, 31 Oct 1999 19:16:09 -0800 (PST) Date: Sun, 31 Oct 1999 19:16:09 -0800 (PST) From: Alfred Perlstein To: Graey Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: moving wd1(freebsd) to wd0 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 Sun, 31 Oct 1999, Graey wrote: > > My system has(had) two harddrives, wd0 with win95 and wd1 with freebsd.

You don't state what FreeBSD version you're running, but there was a switch to ELF loading format, so it's entirely possible you could get it to work because of incorrect format. Regardless, you committed the cardinal sin of giving us no data, not your failed program, not your error messages, not the FreeBSD version. You could have only hit about 3,000 possible ways to do things wrong, but you're asking us to guess. OK, I'll use the one piece of data you *did* give; you said you wrote your program for DOS. Are you aware that FreeBSD accesses system services in an entirely different way than you do under DOS? No BIOS interrupts, no DOS interrupts, things don't work that way. Of, course, maybe you did know that, but we can't tell, you didn't supply the data ... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include C programming, Electronics, 213 Lakeside Dr. Apt.

What's wrong? Please help! Check out the following line in rc.conf. It may say something like: network_interfaces="fxp0 auto" it should say network_interfaces="fxp0 lo0" (i.e., replace auto with lo0" otherwise the localhost interface is not properly configured.

Running a single CPU kernel works fine (pre2 seems much faster, but I haven't done any testing). 2.0.5a does the same. NFS and mars_nwe with the same hardware and SMP kernel work fine, even with very large files (GB) and high throughput (3MB/sec sustained). There are no hardware errors reported at any time; memory passes AMIDiag's pattern testing without a peep. The SM used completely different hardware and a fresh installation, by the way. Client is an NT4 SP5 workstation; have tried both server and domain authentication. I have many KB of mptable/kernel config files/log files, but none of it seems very helpful. I suspect that a sniffer will be required to do a packet trace. Any suggestions?

Why are you manually modifying master.passwd in the first place? Does the 'pw' command not do what you want?

So please take my following observations in that context. It is NOT my intention to disparage anyone. I have never been an IT professional but did start dinking with computers in the days of CPM and the Apple 2E. So I have done my fair share of tinkering. When GUI Macs appeared and then Windoze (say around 1986?) I made the statement then to a friend of mine that Unix ought to get the lead out, come out of the inner sanctum and *show* itself for what it can be for the masses. Of course hardware appropriate for Unix was prohibitive for the masses. Now it isn't, and IMHO *nix (except for the Penguin) in still cloistered in it's inner sanctum. I have wanted to learn Unix all this time. But guys, to launch myself in this new caper, "I simply want to know the time, NOT how to make a watch" -- if you get my meaning. Personally, being a tinkerer, I'll definitely want to know "how to make that watch" -- but later, when I'm comfortable "telling time". When you guys first started driving cars, where you all in a position to set the valve timing, the ignition timing, etc. Can you guys NOW overhaul your fuel injectors and tune your high-tech engines. Do you want to know how? Do you care? I'm amazed at the brain-power, and level of knowledge and competence on this list. I also read the PHP language list, and am equally amazed at the level of expertise of *those* C programmers, especially Rasmus Lerdorf -- PHP's creator. I can't for the life of me believe that you folks can't present FreeBSD to the world in a simple, no-brainer version to get us wnnabee dummies in the drivers seat. You know what, once were *in* that drivers seat and marvelling and drueling at FBSD's capabilities, you have then gone a long way into making the next generation of FBSD gurus. However, if all we newbies can do is lurch forward like someone learning to drive a standard transmission, and never get moving or are so limited by the complexities, then FBSD *may* remain a novelty only to be enjoyed by a few gifted folks. I'm not suggesting to compromise the open-endedness of *nix, but simply to put together a useful, single-user, beginner's package that is a no-brainer to get going. Once they're behind the FBSD wheel, you've got them for life. *Then* we can start doing our homework for the more complicated network stuff etc. Unfortunately, it's ALL a question of marketing and PR. The proof is staring us all in the face --- a marginal product (windoze vis-a-vis FBSD) has made it huge worlwide. Linux is making huge headway. What do these two products have in common -- marketing & PR *and* ease of installation (although Linux still has a ways to go, I think). FBSD will *never* evangelise and convert the masses unless it does likewise -- but better. Here's a golden opportunity to take the wind out of both Windoze and Linux's sails. I just can't accept that people as *sharp* as you can't do it!! Or maybe it's that you don't want to.....In the meantime, I'll continue lurking, reading and learning FBSD. with respect.....duke To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Oct 31 21:47:28 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from fw.wintelcom.net (ns1.wintelcom.net [209.1.153.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9169E14E6F for ; Sun, 31 Oct 1999 21:47:26 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bright@wintelcom.net) Received: from localhost (bright@localhost) by fw.wintelcom.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id WAA18160; Sun, 31 Oct 1999 22:10:42 -0800 (PST) Date: Sun, 31 Oct 1999 22:10:42 -0800 (PST) From: Alfred Perlstein To: menger@dhs.org Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Group limit 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 Mon, 1 Nov 1999 menger@dhs.org wrote: > Hello, > According to config, there is no such option as NGROUPS_MAX.

If at any time in this message you think I need to go back and RTFM please stop reading and let me know that. This is the sample config for RAID-5 that I am referring to: drive e device /dev/da6h volume raid5 plex org raid5 512k sd length 128m drive a sd length 128m drive b sd length 128m drive c sd length 128m drive d sd length 128m drive e I have a couple of questions about this. Is this config only slicing up one drive? That is what I gather from the config but the theory behind RAID-5 is that you need at least 3 for there to be a point in using RAID-5. So one of my many questions is that where do the drive a, drive b, drive c, drive d, and drive e 's come from? Are there seperated statements for those devices like there is for the drive e? Something such as drive a devide /dev/da0h? I guess I am just confused. Let me hit you up with the scenario that I am trying to use RAID-5 in. I have 4 external seagate drives of 23gigs each. I want to use those 4 drives in a RAID-5 array. They are da0 through da3. The drive where the OS sits is da4. I am wondering what I need to do to get RAID-5 running across those four drives. Thanks for all of your help. I appreciated it.

I think there is an implied drive a device /dev/da2h drive b device /dev/da3h drive c device /dev/da4h drive d device /dev/da5h before the "drive e device /dev/da6h" line. it should be noted that some of the shortcuts used in the vinum manpage that aren't noted as being shortcuts can make things confusing for the first time user. the "drive" commands just provide a meaningful alias to /dev/ entries. -Alfred > I guess I am just confused.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This actually involves two questions. Can I install FreeBSD on an external SCSI SyJet (1429 MB)? Fixed disks are EIDE, two hard drives totaling about 1600 MB and not enough space to install FreeBSD. I already have DOS, OS/2 Warp 4 and Linux, and need the SyJet, and Zip 250 on the same SCSI chain, for additional space. With Linux I believe it is possible to boot from diskette and mount root=/dev/sda2 ncr5380=0x358,254,-1 or something like that. Second question is, does the new FreeBSD SCSI system support my Trantor T130B SCSI adapter? Is this an e-mailing list that one would subscribe to, or does the response go directly to the person asking the question?

We have awk or perl scripts creating master.passwd files on freebsd since we started with FreeBSD 2.0. We learned by reading the vipw source code. You need to do following 1. write master.passwd.tmp or other name somewhere in same file system as /etc lives in. Best is /etc/master.passwd.tmp 2. run pwd_mkdb -p /etc/master.passwd.tmp This installs the new master.passwd and creates/updates following files - passwd plaintext stripped version of master.passwd in classic unix format without crypted passwords - spwd.db Binary version of master.passwd - pwd.db Binary version of passwd All the information for the other files is in master.passwd Thats it. But beware. You can screw up things really bad. Be sure to have a root window open when you debug your script. Backups of master.passwd are made on a daily basis to /var/backup in case you forgot to backup your script. With above information you should be able to port your linux scripts just fine yourself and cash your bosses reward ;-) Greetings Christian -- TopLink Internet Services GmbH ck@171.2.195.in-addr.arpa Christian Kratzer http://www.toplink.net/ Phone: +49 7032 2701-0 Fax: +49 7032 2701-19 FreeBSD spoken here!

This seems to be what the original poster wants to do, Really a very clean process using pwd_mkdb You don't want to use useradd, pw or other interactive stuff when creating users out of your customer database. This is what pwd_mkdb is there for.

ISP1 ISP2 | | router router | ip1 |ip2 |------------------------------------------------------------|Ethernet | | |ip1.1 |ip2.1 | | | | DNS DNS Proxy1 Proxy2 | | 10.0.0.0/16|----------------------------------| Ethernet | | WWW W/stations Server The client has two incoming leased line circuits from two different ISP's, each circuit has a registered IP address range being routed through it. The client has two BSD boxes setup as Proxy (Squid) servers also running NATD. The clients internal network sits on the 10.0.0.0 / 16 range behind these two proxy servers. The client's two DNS servers are on the registered IP side of the Proxy servers, while his web server (hosting multiple sites) is behind the proxy servers. The two proxy servers have NATd alias tables mapping the relevant registered IP address to the private internal address. Each server is dedicated to one of the registered IP ranges. ie: an http request will be resolved to a registered IP address which when the client browser connects to, will be redirected to the private address, which it corresponds to in the NATd tables, by the proxy server which services the particular external IP range( indicated by numbering above) From the outside world this works fine. Attempting to connect to one of the hosted web sites, the traffic hits the relevant proxy server which then translates it and passes it to the web server on the relevant internal address. If an internal user tries to connect to a web site (using one of the proxy servers as his browser proxy) the results vary. If the site he attempts to connect to is natted via the proxy box (being used as his web proxy) he cannot connect.. Looking at the ARP table on that proxy server it indicates " incomplete " for the relevant external IP address arp resolution. If the web site is natted via the other proxy server it works fine ie: if the IP address resolved for a web site is an address which is being natted by the same proxy server (which is used as a proxy ) by the client workstation, the proxy server is not immediately replacing the external address with the internal NATTED address and passing the traffic back to the internal server. It appears to try an ARP request which never gets answered. Does anyone have any ideas what could cause this? And an idea on how to resolve it.

It sounds like you're doing all this by hand. The ports system would make this easier for you. Alternatively, packages would probably make it even easier.

Probably because screenshots tell you absolutely nothing about the usefulness of an operating system. :-) FreeBSD the operating system looks like what you get in a COMMAND prompt in Windows (assuming you're familiar with that platform). You can run a Windowing system on top of FreeBSD and make that look like just about anything, including Windows. Ciao, Sheldon.

The proper way to do this is to use a syncronization tool like CVSup or CVS to update the source tree from the remote machine, using the branch tag RELENG_2_2. See Chapter 18 of the FreeBSD handbook for more information on synchronizing your source tree. Ciao, Sheldon.

Same here for the rc5des project (http://www.distributed.net). With FBSD 3.2, I got ~237KKeys/sec.

I'm not seeing that at all, the interrupt %-age is close to 0% like it used to be. For me, the strange thing is that I see this 30% loss on a Cyrix P166+ rev1.7, but that there is no performance difference whatsoever on an AMD K6-II/300.

You actually want to set the lease duration a lot shorter, and you're still going to have race conditions where people who cached your address will continue to use the old address for the TTL. Not that there Is No Way to avoid that without cooperation between the DNS master and the DHCP server, though. As a rough estimate and for most purposes, I'd set the TTL at the shorter of a) half the remaining time to lease *renewal* and b) one hour, but that's mostly because it's going to mimic typical practice. Be well.

I have a 2.2.8 system with a Boardrunner mvp3/586b mother board IDE 4gig, 128 meg of mem, S3 Virge vid. and it will not boot FreeBSD 3.X from the floppy/cdrom. FreeBSD 2.2.X, and Linux/dos/windoze(nt/98/95) will all boot from the floppy/cdrom, but not FreeBSD 3.X. Looking back, this appears to be my first Boardrunner going to 3.X. I'm comfortable with doing an update, except that if I have to emergency recover the system, then I am stuck. I have not yet tried the update. I have experimented extensively with the BIOS, and have updated to the latest version, still no joy. Any and all help would be appreciated.

But beware. You can screw up things really bad. And that 'Beware' line is exactly the reason you should be using the 'pw' command :) Pw is supposed to be called from interactive programs to actually do the modifications; it handles everything for you.

The company I work for is a world wide touch panel manufacturer named Gunze Electronics USA co. in Austin, Texas. I would like to get in touch with some person who dedicate to FreeBSD and also can take care of a driver software with peripherals regarding serial communication type devices under FreeBSD. We don't intend to sell the driver software with our touch panel products. Although we realize that it is just a customer support issue, we don't know how to do it at this moment. We are very sorry to bother you for such kind asking. But we believe that FreeBSD would renovate the computer scene and make users feel comfortable with computers more. I'm looking forward to having some reply from you in the near future. Thank you.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello again, First I would like to thank all of you who sent replies to my question. They have been helpful. Second I would like to clarify my question to answer questions you had about it. I want to use the Netwide Assembler (NASM) to assemble some programs for a class I am taking. I am running FreeBSD 3.2-Release. When I attempt to assemble the programs written for a DOS box I get no errors, but when I try to execute them I get the message "cannot execute binary file." I have tried to compile them with a .c program that calls it but I either get a message telling me "file not recognized: File format not recognized," This I learned is because I was using a.out format instead of elf, Now that I am using elf my program core dumps. I do realize that there are many differences between the way DOS and FreeBSD use interrupts. My question now is does anyone know of any documentation that will tell me how to do I/O calls to the system in FreeBSD? Also once I do have information about the I/O calls will I be able to execute the programs assembled as stand alone programs or do I have to call them with a .c program? I cannot seem to get NASM to assemble a stand alone program!? Thanks again Isaac D. Flemming ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Isaac D.

I don't think this is possible - LyX is a GUI front end to LaTeX mostly - I don't think there's anything you can do to output a Word readable file (maybe plain text? I never use Word).

Jeff Phillips No flames, whatever. My ol' dusty, motheaten Inet Flak Suit probably would not even fit, anymore, as the ``wisdom of age'' has rather rotundified me innards, to put it mildly. The constructive discussion is what I am after. The FreeBSD handbook, is probably our cannon from which to start. Lehey's book is a close second. Manpages are never a place from which to start. They are a place from which to admin and userspeak, in currency. Something is needed a little before the manpages. The manpages are the cannon for the user and the admin, AFTER the machine is up and running, in real time. The Berkeley bibles, i.e., the smm/ps1/usd suite are usually written at a more professional level than Joe enduser has, although the usd sections (particularly 1) can be helpful. Many/most Joe endusers will have a hard time at a deeper level than that, unless they already come from a more experienced background, compared to the point+click kind. Still, I get a sense that, to put it all together, and it is a rightly complex matter for the newbie, one also needs some kind of a hands on system to paw with ALONGSIDE the cannon. For the sake of discussion, what pops to mind would be a rather limited system with only the basics for getting up a minimal machine, or a minimal machine with X (even that is probably more complicated than the newbie needs to start with), and then running through various scripts and the like to get the real-time feet wet. The system must be bulletproof, and come up on anything running dos/windoz, and allow controlled interactivity without nuking the original OS's (as good bad or ugly as they may be). This has to be a load and go type of thing that even the most geen newbie can get rolling, with minimal effort. In some respects, it almost becomes a distance education sort of thing, with remote-hands-on training. Then, when some minimal expertise is obtained, let the newbie out on the race track, to go it for real. In days past, we used to do that kind of thing by 1 on 1 mentoring around the consoles in a dark room, late at night. Nowadays, we need to adjust that approach for Joe enduser out in Timbuktu with only a 9.6K modem to a slow email-electronic mentor. Nowadays, the drop-in CD becomes the quasi-mentor. Good discussion, and I appreciate all those who contributed to it. Maybe some good will come of it......

My main motivation was to learn more about Unix and since the site that host my web site is on FreeBSD I thought that made the most sense. I don't have hours to play with this stuff so give me an easy, basic install. I can then take a little time each night or on the weekends to learn more as I expand on the basic configuration, change settings and add features. But right now all I have are Linux & FreeBSD CDs setting next to a box running Win98. I'd love to be able to spend the time RTFMs, Howtos, all the emails on the mailing lists, etc. but it's just not gonna happen right now. I don't think I'm alone in this. For those working with some flavor of Unix or looking to, they can find the block of time. Unfortunately IMHO your losing a large chunk of people, frustrated with Windows and curious about the alternatives. Just 2 cents from a newbie trying to get a basic system up so I can try the other things I read about on this list and learn more. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of FreeBSD Bob Sent: Monday, November 01, 1999 12:57 PM To: iratus@home.com Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: "easy installation"!!!!! yeah (with common goals) > >> I still stand by my contention that we need something for the > >> joe enduser crowd, rather than rely on Penguin Basic Training, > >> (although that method seems to work, too). > >What you need is documentation that not only tells you how to configure > >but also explains what it is your going to have when you get through.

I had to get a friend of mine who works there to set it up. They use NS records on each address to point it to your own nameservers. Check out 63.224.10.1. It does appear that 63.224.53.3 is not assigned a reverse. > Could you do me a favor and explain all that? I have no idea what /25 > subnet and in-addr.arpa actually mean :) /25 subnet means the first 25 bits of the address correspond to a network and the last 7 correspond to a particular node on that network. Once upon a time, it was assumed that addresses less than 127.0.0.0 were /8 (aka. Class A), but this is no longer true. It appears that Network Solutions divided 63.x.x.x into /12 Default Server: localhost.d2si.com Address: 127.0.0.1 > set type=ptr > 224.63.in-addr.arpa Server: localhost.d2si.com Address: 127.0.0.1 224.63.in-addr.arpa origin = ns1.uswest.net mail addr = hostmaster.uswest.net serial = 318 refresh = 28800 (8H) retry = 7200 (2H) expire = 604800 (1W) minimum ttl = 86400 (1D) > 63.in-addr.arpa Server: localhost.d2si.com Address: 127.0.0.1 Authoritative answers can be found from: IN-ADDR.arpa origin = A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET mail addr = hostmaster.INTERNIC.NET serial = 1999110102 refresh = 1800 (30M) retry = 900 (15M) expire = 604800 (1W) minimum ttl = 86400 (1D) The in-addr.arpa DNS domain is used for reverse lookups. The idea is that reverse lookups should be delegated like forward ones are, in a hierarchical fashion. So, to find the name for a given address, you follow a hierarchy like this: arpa contains in-addr contains 63 contains 224 contains 53 contains 3, so you construct a DNS query for the name 3.53.224.63.in-addr.arpa. Also, note that you are looking for a particular type of record, a PTR record, so you should tell nslookup that using set type=ptr The problem with the above hierarchical scheme is that authority for reverse lookups no longer necessarily falls at the dots. So, the original scheme assumed that every address like 63.224.53.* was controlled by the same entity. It is becoming increasingly common for this not to be the case, so USWest is using a NS record to delegate the responsibility, like this: ajk@hamlet ~% nslookup Default Server: localhost.d2si.com Address: 127.0.0.1 > server ns1.uswest.net Default Server: ns1.uswest.net Address: 204.147.80.5 > set type=ns > 1.10.224.63.in-addr.arpa Server: ns1.uswest.net Address: 204.147.80.5 Non-authoritative answer: 1.10.224.63.in-addr.arpa nameserver = hamlet.d2si.com 1.10.224.63.in-addr.arpa nameserver = othello.d2si.com Authoritative answers can be found from: hamlet.d2si.com internet address = 63.224.10.2 othello.d2si.com internet address = 63.224.10.1 > 3.53.224.63.in-addr.arpa Server: ns1.uswest.net Address: 204.147.80.5 *** ns1.uswest.net can't find 3.53.224.63.in-addr.arpa: Non-existent host/domain They clearly have not set this up yet for whoever this 63.224.53.3 box is. > And if that's the case (above) then that might be the problem on all my > reverse lookups that go bad.

If you're saying that your old ISPs nameservers can resolve 63.224.53.3, they have probably assumed control of the network erronously. If I am correct, your school should be able to resolve 63.224.10.1 (it can) but your old ISP will probably NOT be able to resolve 63.224.10.1.

Do you want to know how? Do you care? I like this guy. He just wrote what I was about to write, but much better. The problem I'm having with this thread is that it seems to segregate users into two camps: people like my wife, who has trouble turning on a Windoze machine, and people like Greg Lehey, who wrote the book on FreeBSD. Well, we're not all either sysadmins or double-clicking idiots. Here in the middle are people like Duke, who just wants to learn a bit about UNIX, and people like me. I'm a (ab)user, not an admin. I primarily want to use my system to get work done. The more I learn about the valve timing and the ignition along the way the better, but I'm NOT sitting here because I want to become a mechanic or admin. Should I therefore be condemned to the instability and poor performance of Windoze? You tell me to RTFM. I really don't mind doing that, but I have two problems: some of the man pages are NOT written for the uninitiated, and many times I don't know really where to start looking. If I were wanting to become an admin that wouldn't really matter; I'd simply start wading into Greg's book and the archives until something clicked. Mostly I just don't have time for that, and I think it's unreasonable to expect Joe User in general to have that much immediately available time. Do you as a group really want to divide users into two camps: FreeBSD sysadmins, and Windoze lusers? Should those of us who simply want a nonfragile system to get personal work done all move to Linux? FWIW, I came to FreeBSD from the Atari ST, by way of Xenix, so I'm another with no MS-DOS background. I do run WinNT on my notebook, but that's be- cause my employer requires that I run SOME form of Windoze, and NT is at least reasonably robust for a single user, even if the performance isn't anything to write home about. I've used mechanical CAD on HP-UX, SunOS, and IRIX, but even there I was just a user, with just a driver's license, not a mechanics' certification. I don't want to race; I just want to drive to the grocery store, but I'd like to get home again without a crash. -- Jerry Dunham FreeBSD Atarian ordinaire jdunham@fc.net (512)335-0674 (H) jdunham@avalanche.us.dell.com (512)728-4026 (O) E Pluribus Unix To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 1 12:10:28 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from logisticsoftware.co.nz (logisticsoftware.co.nz [202.37.163.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4357615049 for ; Mon, 1 Nov 1999 12:09:51 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jonc@logisticsoftware.co.nz) Received: (from jonc@localhost) by logisticsoftware.co.nz (8.9.3/8.9.3) id JAA02673; Tue, 2 Nov 1999 09:09:16 +1300 (NZDT) Date: Tue, 2 Nov 1999 09:09:16 +1300 (NZDT) From: Jonathan Chen To: Vadim Vitebsky Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: /var/run/utmp In-Reply-To: <01be62fa$e7b075c0$0301a8c0@vadim.vhi.net> 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 Sun, 28 Feb 1999, Vadim Vitebsky wrote: > >What is your output for: > > > >ls -lo /var/run/utmp > >and > >ls -ldo /var/run > > > >thanks, > >-Alfred > > Output for ls -lo /var/run/utmp: cr- - - -x-wT 1 789129520 1631723562 > uchg, arch, schg, sunlnk 32, 0x7830002b Feb 21 2012 /var/run/utmp This is odd. /var/run/utmp should be a file, and *not* a character device - that's why you're getting "device not configured" problems.

Yes, that should work, modulo location. You shouldn't put it in /etc/rc.conf, though: first, you shouldn't change that, and secondly it would only apply to the startup if you put it there.

Allso on a Digetal Cabel Modem. As others have obvserved, we're not in the porn business. It's true that a number of porn sites use FreeBSD, but they have their own staff. I don't know much about the details, but I'd guess that you'd need quite a business plan to be successful in the Internet porn business.

This questions qualifies as "in-depth technical", so I'm moving it to -hackers. If you're not signed up there, you should be. I'm also copying -committers because it's probably of interest there. The object you need is in /modules. For example, to debug the Linux kld, you need to load the symbols from /modules/linux.ko. That's the easy part. The difficult part is to find the base address. I have this in /usr/src/sys/modules/vinum/.gdbinit.vinum.paths: define asf set $file = linker_files.tqh_first set $found = 0 while ($found == 0) if (*$file->filename == 'v') set $found = 1 else set $file = $file->link.tqe_next end end shell /usr/bin/objdump --section-headers /modules/vinum.ko | grep ' .text' | awk '{print "add-symbol-file /modules/vinum.ko \$file->address+0x" $4}' > .asf source .asf end This goes through an internal kernel list and looks for a module name which begins with 'v'; you'll need to change the first "if" statement to something which uniquely matches your kld. The rest (modulo file names, which I have omitted here) should stay the same. There's also more information in vinum(4). Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

Should those of us who simply want a > nonfragile system to get personal work done all move to Linux? no, and my personal opinion is that *bsd, linux, and *nix in general will have a very difficult time reaching the masses of windoze users. i can barely get my mom to write email and type a letter in word much less login to a worstation, and run a unix system. as much as we all like to think that pretty guis will make it easy for normal users, it won't. freebsd is closest to making that happen because of the unified devel effort that keeps the system clean. freebsd has consistent interfaces and libs which is alot more than i can say for linux. linux has the apps tho, and bsd gets them eventually, but everything new happens on linux so it's the best choice for a desktop because most of the new stuff is for desktops. however, the baggage of unix is still there on both systems, and that will never go away. personally, if it wasn't for the lack of apps, i'd put my money on beos as the next big desktop. personally, i use linux as my desktop and freebsd as my servers. linux is on the cutting edge and delivering me what i want in a desktop, but then again, i'm an admin. until kernels don't need to be recompiled to add features, users don't have to login to get work done (try explaining root to an average windows user some time), standard libs and interfaces for desktop/application programming, and ease of installation of new applications (ports are nice, but try getting my mom to install one) windoze will remain the king of the desktop. the philosophy of unix is just all wrong for an average user. > FWIW, I came to FreeBSD from the Atari ST, by way of Xenix, so I'm another > with no MS-DOS background.

I'm not advocating a point and click FreeBSD. My choice of the phrase "Plug n Play" was unfortunate. Give me a script, rpm whatever you want to call it that will get me the basic core up and running so I can start learning. I'm not opposed to reading, tinkering, etc. but simply can devote a large chunk of time nightly to this right now. Give me a running basic system and I'll spend an hour a night figuring things out. Kinda hard tune a car, let alone become a mechanic if the car doesn't have an engine. It's not that I haven't tried. I've try installing FreeBSD and it wouldn't recognize my CD-ROM.

Somewhere in a man page or Complete FreeBSD version 2.x.x I remember a suggestion that the root partition should be small in order to reduce the possibility of corruption. Is this really a factor? What happens if somebody dumps a huge file in /tmp? Should the / directory's size vary depending on the availability of space? What is the suggested size and why? Also, it used to be that the amount of swap was 2x the memory. Is this still true or since memory commonly 128-256MB+ is there a suggested upper bound?

Nope - cvsup just updates all the ports tree skeleton, not the ports themselves. This is still a manual job.

Also, yes it is still suggested to keep the root on the small side. You want enough space to hold the kernel, /etc, /root and the like. You would be best served to have separate partitions for /tmp and /var, or symlink them to your /home or /usr partitions. As far as swap goes, I do know it needs to be more than the available memory. Beyond that it truly depends on what you are doing with the machine. I have 128MB of ram in my system, and I have yet to touch swap since upgrading it to that. So x2 mem would be overkill for my situation. Hope this helps. -Chris > -----Original Message----- > From: Nathaniel Schein [SMTP:nschein@prisa.com] > Sent: Monday, November 01, 1999 6:01 PM > To: Freebsd Questions > Subject: The size of root and swap > > I have a question concerning the suggested size of the root partitition. > Somewhere in a man page or Complete FreeBSD version 2.x.x I remember a > suggestion that the root partition should be small in order to reduce the > possibility of corruption.

If you are worried about users dumping huge files in /tmp then make it a symlink to /usr/tmp. Do the same for /var (symlink it to /usr/var that is, not /usr/tmp) if you don't have a separate /var partition. If you plan on using debug kernels then you'll need a larger / partition, mine's 64MB. Look up the thread "Debug kernel by default (was: System size with -g)" in the -questions archive. I asked about partition sizes last time I re-built my machine and Greg Lehey gave a lot of help and useful info (that's where 64MB / came from). > Also, it used to be that the amount of swap was 2x the memory. Is this still > true or since memory commonly 128-256MB+ is there a suggested upper bound? > This generally seems to be the rule of thumb for upto 64MB of RAM. Above that you can reduce the 2x factor. It should still be greater than the physical RAM so that it can hold a crash dump.

This is still a manual job. > Yes, manual. However, the port "pkg_version" (I think it's in sysutils, can't remember, just "search" for it via "make search key=pkg_version" from within your ports directory) can help in detecting when a port you have installed can be updated. I have found pkg_version particularly useful when coupled with Nik Clayton's patches: http://www.freebsd.org/~nik/pkg_version.1.diff http://www.freebsd.org/~nik/pkg_version.diff Once you apply these patches, do "pkg_version -vc" and it will actually spew shell commands that you can judiciously cut-n-paste to upgrade an individual port. Very useful.

I think there's an option in /stand/sysinstall under the configuration option. But I'm not infront of my machine right now, so I can't verify it. XF86Setup (if it's installed) is a graphical configuration utility, and is probably the easier of the two to use. xf86config is a text based program. Now, as you may or may not know. The default X config is a boring looking twm configuration. If you'd like one of the newer, snazzier window managers (desktops) for X, you'll want to install them either from /usr/ports/, or you can go into /stand/sysinstall, go to Configure, and choose "Desktop". It gives you a list of window managers to install. Hope this helps. -Chris P.S.

Or you can use OSS but it's not free. I just installed one last week and have 0 problems with it. take a look at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=981891+984333+/usr/local/www/db/ text/1999/freebsd-questions/19990822.freebsd-questions if you have any more questions it's the mail list archive that i used to get everything going.

The router (.44) runs FreeBSD -stable and has two network interfaces -- one is connected to the rest of the network, and the other is connected directly to the .55 machine (via a crossed TP cable). The .55 machine has only one network interface, and it's running various operating systems (W95, Linux, FreeBSD). What is the easiest way to do such a setup? Of course, the .55 box should have full internet access. All IPs are static, no dial-up. It is not possible to change the configuration of other boxes or gateways on the network, i.e. the routing has to be "hidden" -- I guess that means that an arp proxy is required. At first, I tried to setup the two interfaces of the router machine like this: 1.2.3.44 netmask 255.255.255.0 (the "outer" one) 1.2.3.45 netmask 255.255.255.255 (the "inner" one) and then enable IP forwarding, and run choparp (from ports/ net) as a proxy arp server. However, it just didn't work. A simple "ping" resulted in error messages from the arp resolver ("could not allocate llinfo" or similar -- I can reproduce it and copy the exact error message if someone wants to see it). I guess it's because the kernel doesn't like that the .55 box was not within the network of the .45 interface of the router (even though the router had a static route for that box, of course). So, what should I try next? Using "private" address spaces (e.g. 10.x.x.x) between the two boxes, and ipnat on the router to translate it to the normal .55 address? I still need an arp proxy in that case, don't I? (I've never done anything with ipnat or NAT in general before, so I'm a bit unsure.) Thanks in advance for any hints and suggestions!

The chose of .45 and .55 means it won't work that way. If you want to treat a link as though it's on a subnet, then everything you want it to talk to without going through a router must be within the subnet. If you want to deal with it like a subnet you must allocate 4 adjacent (and properly aligned) addresses since you must allocate in powers of two and you must have a broadcast address. > So, what should I try next?

(I've never done > anything with ipnat or NAT in general before, so I'm a bit > unsure.) If believe you should be able to setup the link between them as a point-to-point link. To do on the router machine just do: ifconfig inet 1.2.3.45 1.2.3.55 Actually, if my tests with ppp over ssh vpns hold true in general you could avoid using a public IP address on the backside of the router by doing something like this: 1.2.3.0/24 <----> [1.2.3.44 10.0.0.1] <---> 1.2.3.55 subnet router PtP Then 1.2.3.55 uses 10.0.0.1 as it's default router. I haven't tested this configuration but I have a system which looks like this which uses many of the same principles: router 1.2.3.0/24 <---> [1.2.3.32 1.2.3.33] <---> 1.2.3.32/28 DSL [ 10.0.1.1 ] Ether ^ | VPN (ppp over ssh) +--> [1.2.3.40] The router in the middle proxies 1.2.3.32/28 on 1.2.3.32 and 1.2.3.40 on 1.2.3.33. -- Brooks To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 1 17:49:24 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 2A5E91507C for ; Mon, 1 Nov 1999 17:49:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from cjc@cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com) Received: (from cjc@localhost) by cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id UAA03093; Mon, 1 Nov 1999 20:52:39 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from cjc) From: "Crist J.

The machine already had two drives which are configured into a single vinum volume. Adding the new drives caused some problems (possibly hardware problems with wires just not connected right, or a SCSI ID of 0 seemed like it may have flipped out the aha0 driver, possible?). One of the vinum drives was never seen at those startup attempts. Just for completeness, before adding the new hardware, I first umount'ed the vinum volume then issued a 'vinum stop'. Now, from what I gather from the manpage, if the devices do not come up properly, vinum will not write to them. So is the data on those drives still there? I took the system back to its old hardware configuration, but vinum still does not come up. It reports two of the subdisks as "crashed" and one as "up." From what it says about "crashed" on vinum(4) this _seems_ tosay my data is still there, but I'm not sure how to get at it.

[snip] I think by far the easiest thing to do for this is to just set up the FreeBSD machine to be an Ethernet bridge. Forget routing all together. A co-worker wanted to have one machine running FreeBSD and one Windoze at work. There is one RJ-45 plug in the wall and rather than waste a hub on him, I just slapped a second NIC in the FreeBSD box (actually the old 10-BaseT one left over from the upgrade to 100-BaseT), put a crossover between it and the Windoze machine, then recompiled the kernel with bridging. Viola! As far as the Windoze machine and the rest of the LAN knows, its connected all on the same wire. Sounds just like your problem. HTH. -- Crist J.

Definitely. I should have though of that since I've also got a network configured almost exactly as described. The fact that we're only bridging so the host on the other side works normaly when we're not running man-in-the-middle attacks on it must have confused me. ;-) You can even run firewalling and dummynet using bridges. -- Brooks -- "Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security, will not have, nor do they deserve, either one" --Thomas Jefferson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 1 18:38:50 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from probity.mcc.ac.uk (probity.mcc.ac.uk [130.88.200.94]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id F34F214D26 for ; Mon, 1 Nov 1999 18:38:35 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jcm@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org) Received: from dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org ([130.88.200.97]) by probity.mcc.ac.uk with esmtp (Exim 1.92 #3) for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org id 11iTqC-000JsP-00; Tue, 2 Nov 1999 02:38:32 +0000 Received: from localhost (jcm@localhost) by dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id CAA51780 for ; Tue, 2 Nov 1999 02:38:31 GMT (envelope-from jcm@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org) Date: Tue, 2 Nov 1999 02:38:31 +0000 (GMT) From: J McKitrick To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: help on kernel panic 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 just cvsupped from 3.2 to 3.3.

I believe it is considered good Internet etiquette to have reverse addresses for everything, but I do not believe there is any actual requirement. I've been wrong before though. The two situations where not having a reverse entry has been problematic for me are 1) sshd will use the reverse entry to look up the public key for a connecting host to verify that the host is trustworthy. 2) spam-sensitive mail servers (like hub.freebsd.org) are not forgiving and do not send mail if they can't resolve the address. These two reasons by themselves are enough for me to be sure I have working reverse lookups working, although I've never made them a I'll-stay-up-all-night-until-it-works kind of priority. > Thanks again!!!

We're getting ready to move the file and mail operations to separate servers, leaving the SCO box to do what it does best, run the database. The future configuration will be: * SCO OpenServer running the database * FreeBSD + Samba providing file and print services * FreeBSD + Sendmail/Procmail handles the mail I'd like to come up with a "single password" solution for all network access. Problem is that I'm not sure how to do this. I really would like for password changes to happen on the FreeBSD/Samba box so that the Windows users can change their password in windows. So, ideally, all other machines will consult the FreeBSD/Samba box for authentication. Password aging should also happen here. Any ideas?

At the bottom of man adduser, in the "SEE ALSO" section, they make reference to the commands: addgroup rmgroup which apparently no longer have man pages. I tried to do some digging, and came to the conclusion that the commands disappeared between v.2.2.5 and 2.2.6, yet nothing seems to be mentioned in the release notes for those versions.

Email to the accounts identified at nask.pl and c/o freebsd.org just bounce. Alternatively, has anyone else spent significant time looking into the project ? My interest is chiefly in the dial-in server aspect. I'd like to see it adapted to use RADIUS, but haven't any interest in rebuilding what someone else may well have done already. Any news ? If not I guess I'll start rooting thru the source ... Cheers, Erik stainsby@telus.net ======================================== There was no year zero.

So say: I telnet to 207.34.202.38:21 (relay box) everything would be passed on to another machine, say 24.1.64.72:21. Of course when the 24.1.64.72:21 box returns the packet to 207.34.202.68:21 that should also magically bounce back to the ip who originally connected to 207.34.202.38:21. If this is not possible the source ip (that originally connected to 207.34.202.38:21), could be fixed if that makes the firewall rules simpler. I've been tinkering with the following command ipfw add fwd otherbox,port tcp from any to relaybox X I'm sure something is forwarding somewhere but there doesn't appear to be traffic going both ways. Can someone advise me whether I've done this completely wrong or suggest another approach I should take?

The /sbin/nologin method prints out a friendly "piss off" message, while /nonexistent does not. However, /nonexistent will work on most non-FreeBSD platforms, which makes supposedly makes migrating passwd files easier. Personally, I think that's a pretty lame motivation. While it's mostly religious, your end-users will certainly appreciate /sbin/nologin more. Ciao, Sheldon.

You've been bitten by a rather confusingly named option in sysinstall. The "Upgrade" option means: Install the release of FreeBSD for which THIS COPY OF SYSINSTALL was desgined over an existing installation of FreeBSD. Unfortunately it does not mean Use this copy of sysinstall to install a later release of FreeBSD. What you should have done / should do is create kern and mfsroot floppies for the release to which you want to upgrade and use those to "Upgrade". Ciao, sheldon.

This seems to happen only under X. Hmmm. Did you by any chance install a kerberized version of su? I've had this problem with su trying unsuccessfully to communicate with a KerberosIV server. Eventually, su times out. If you can confirm that su does time out with Kerberos-related messages in /var/log/messages, the solution is to ``make world'' with MAKE_KERBEROS4 undefined. This means commenting it out of /etc/make.conf . If not, I'm wasting your time and you should wait for someone else to make suggestions. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.

You close his or her account. :-) Lots of folks use MFS for their /tmp partition, so its use does not affect the root partition. See the MFS option dcescription at: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig-config.html > Should the / directory's size vary depending on > the availability of space?

The more swap you have, the more potential there is for paging. If you have "too much swap", it'll take a lot of paging before a moggy process runs out of memory and is killed. Ciao, Sheldon.

I am confused with following situation. I have two systems. The one is 2.2.6-RELEASE (256M RAM, PII 300, IDE), the second is 3.1-STABLE (384 RAM, Dual PII 350, SCSI). Both have kernels with 'maxusers 256'. Under more or less heavy load on those systems some processes accidently die with SIGKILL signal. These kills are random and may happen to _any recently launched_ application. Before and during these kills the systems do not seem overloaded. They still have plenty RAM and swap free, load average is between 3 and 5. Log files and dmesg do not contain any information regarding these kills :( Kernel seem don't relate to this problem. Playing with login.conf didn't help too much as well :( Can anyone help me to find the source of these kills? Or this must go to freebsd-security? :(( P.S. Please CC me as I'm not subscribed to this mailing list.

Is there just a general outline? if your machine is accessible from the internet (with the own IP Adress) you only need a webserver (apache). The easyer way is to use a hosting service.

Not personally, except to add an extra voice as suffering exactly the same problem. ie FreeBSD cannot see the second controller, but Win95[spit] has no problem. (Using an ABIT BH6 rev1.0) The only difference is that I had upgraded my BIOS from one that did allow the 2nd IDE channel to be disabled (from claiming an IRQ) to one that did not. So I decided to roll-back to the original `saved' image -- in case the 2nd channel wasn't properly enabled -- unfortunately I ended up with a very dead motherboard for my trouble. Sigh. I am about to get the BIOS reflashed either by a friend (if poss), or failing that by paying the manufacturer. If it is a config error in FreeBSD, I'll be wanting the latest possible BIOS image -- otherwise I'll be wanting an earlier image...

I did a bit of trial and error compiling and rebooting, compiling and rebooting, until I found the problem, and it was the bpfilter. Thank you for taking the time to read through that entire file! Now, I do have a few questions: First of all, why is something with "security and privacy implications" required for something as simple as dhcp? And also, this is just for my information: I ran NT with my cable modem for about 3 weeks. During that time I rebooted many times and never changed IP addresses. It was definitely nice. Then I ran Linux for at least a month. Every single time I rebooted, I would end up with a new IP address. Everytime. It was not nice; I constantly had to tell my friends my new IP address when they wanted any files from me, or wanted to play quake3 on my server. Now, I've not been using FreeBSD for long (about half a day so far) and I don't intend to reboot often, but I've noticed, through all this testing with my kernel and such, that my IP address does not change every time I reboot. It's stayed the same probably through 5 or more reboots, even. My first question about this is why are these operating systems different? My second, is can I look forward to those weeks (or more) of IP address stability that I got in NT, even rebooting at least once a day or so? Ok, and also, the linux netscape seemed much more stable in linux than the freebsd netscape seems in freebsd. Should I try the linux netscape in emulation mode? Thanks for all the time taken to answer these questions.

I've been told it's because of limitations of our networking software. but if you think that having bpfilter in your kernel is a "security" or "privacy" problem, you probably don't need any more technical detail than I can give you. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.

My understanding is that the problem is related to DHCP sending data while the interface still doesn't have an IP address. Whether this is allowed and what the exact consequences are varies between implementations.

From the /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC comments, you can read: # The `maxusers' parameter controls the static sizing of a number of # internal system tables by a complicated formula defined in param.c. # maxusers 10 which means that changing maxusers will not actually limit the maximum number of simultaneously logged in users. On the contrary, you can have as many logged in users as your system can afford without running out of resources. However, the value of maxusers is used in calculating the static sizes of some important kernel tables, and one of these is the number of processes. In file /usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC/param.c we read: #define NPROC (20 + 16 * MAXUSERS) so now you know why setting maxusers will also set the maximum number of processes, during kernel compiles. -- Giorgos Keramidas, "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

I think that it can be easily done by setting the default gateway on the 1.2.3.55 machine to be the 1.2.3.44 router.

You have plenty of alternative choises: (1) read the sources of the kernel to find out how to call the proper system calls to do your I/O. This is probably the hardest way of reinventing the wheel of Unix I/O. Try to avoid it, since writing in C can be a little easier. (2) use simple C calling conventions for linking your assembly programs against the standard C library. something like the following comes as a handy example. push 3 push FORMAT call printf add esp,8 (3) write a simple function in C that does what you want, then examine the output file produced by: % gcc -S demo.c you want to read demo.S after that. > Also once I do have information about the I/O calls will I be able to > execute the programs assembled as stand alone programs or do I have to > call them with a .c program? Both can work. If you link against a C program, see (2) above. To build a standalone program, you are probably going to find (1) more useful, in the long run. -- Giorgos Keramidas, "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

Mostly because DHCP isn't really that simple. It requires you to be able to send and receive packets without having an address of your own, which is kind of a hack around some basic concepts of IP. In other systems, I've implemented other kinds of work-arounds that I think are more aesthetically pleasant, but they're still hacks to an IP purist. Also, I'll bet you don't understand the security and privacy implications described by that passage. In my opinion, they affect very few people. [For example, if someone has physical access to reboot the machine from a floppy, the "security" implications of BPF are irrelevant.] > Then I ran Linux for at least a month.

Use a domain name. If your ISP isn't keeping your DNS name stable, that's a separate problem, but IP addresses aren't *intended* to be human-friendly, and under DHCP, they're not intended to be (dependably) stable, either. > My first question about this is why are these operating systems > different? Unless you've done more configuration of your FreeBSD DHCP configuration, I'd be surprised if they are, in the way you're saying (FreeBSD getting more-stable addresses than Linux). More likely, your ISP has just stabilized their address database in the meantime. > My second, is can I look forward to those weeks (or more) of IP address > stability that I got in NT, even rebooting at least once a day or so? It's unlikely you have any control over this. You can talk to your ISP and ask about setting client identifiers, but if you have a hardware address (e.g., ethernet), that's probably the only clue they use in picking your IP address. It can't hurt to ask, though.

The installation says it is completed but WP will not start up because there is no xwp in the directory. So obviously the installation was not complete. Could anyone give me a hand?

Try compiling it this way: nasm -f elf -o test.o test.asm ld -o test test.o You can also link a gcc .o file in here 2) FreeBSD uses protected mode. DOS originally didn't, so it has backwards compatability, but fbsd doesn't. This means you can't use BIOS and DOS interrupts (int xx). A possible solution is to link your program to libc and use printf functions and the like from your asm progs, though I assume this is not what you want. Another possible solution is to use [org 100] in the beginning of your programs, compile them with: nasm -f bin -o test.com test.asm and use a DOS emulator to run the program. Or maybe just get DOS :) -- Oren Sarig sarig@isdn.net.il At 18:41 31/10/99 -0500, Isaac Flemming wrote: > > Hello all, > > I am currently enrolled in college course that requires us to use the >Netwide Assembler (NASM).

Maybe, but more likely it's just because there's a salt in the encryption (see the man page for crypt(3)). If two accounts have the same password, they may well (will probably, in fact) have completely different encrypted password entries in the passwd file. This makes brute-force attacks harder. Be well.

You need: pnp0 pcm0 in your kernel and that should about do it. Keep in mind you must do this before the card will appear to "work": cd /dev sh MAKEDEV snd1 # NOT snd0 as you might think then do mixer vol pcm 40 (or whatever volume won't blow out your speakers :) by default, this card's channels are all turned to 0 volume at power up, so even if the device probes and is "working" you can't hear crap unless you turn the volume up. I've had limited success with the OSS drivers from 4front. The last time I tried them, they worked like a charm except for the fact that xmms wouldn't run, so I ditched them in favor of the pcm0 driver again.

I want to keep my system in sync with whatever changes (FreeBSD-stable) have happened since the 3.3-RELEASE came out (16. sep 1999 i think) I want to use sources, via /usr/src So, what do i do?? Can I just download ftp://releng3.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/i386/3.3-19991031-STABLE/src /* ?? If so, how do i install ? Can i run: install.sh ??

Is this (CTM) just another way to keep my system in sync with whatever changes have happened since the 3.3-RELEASE came out???

Here's a link to the original research project, http://www.cse.ogi.edu/DISC/projects/immunix/StackGuard/ The latest development seems to be reflected here, http://www.wirex.com/ and http://immunix.org/ On the downloads page at immunix.org, there's an RPM of patches to gcc 2.7.2.3. I've un-packed that on my 3.3-R system, applied all of the patches, run 'configure', and 'make LANGUAGES=c'. First, the build fails trying to find gnumalloc. After removing that dependency in Makefile and cp/Makefile (assuming that BSD malloc will be used), the build eventually dies with: --- snip --- ./xgcc -B./ -DIN_GCC -O -I./include enquire.o -o enquire /usr/libexec/elf/ld: cannot open crt0.o: No such file or directory *** Error code 1 Stop. --- snip --- I presume that this is because 3.3-R uses elf and gcc is trying to build an a.out version. Thinking about that a bit, I ran 'make distclean', 'configure i386-elf-freebsd', and 'make LANGUAGES=c' in an attempt to build an elf-specific version. After removing the dependencies on gnumalloc again, the build died in the same place, --- snip --- ./xgcc -B./ -DIN_GCC -O -I./include enquire.o -o enquire /usr/libexec/elf/ld: cannot open crt0.o: No such file or directory *** Error code 1 Stop. --- snip --- Am I missing a compatibility library or something?

The permissions on my serial device are as follows: crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 128 Oct 25 13:49 /dev/cuaa0 I am configuring NUT with the uid of 66 which is uucp and a gid of 68 which is dialer. The make and install go fine. After I have configured the etc directory for ups and I run /usr/local/ups/bin/apcsmart /dev/cuaa0 I get the following: Network UPS Tools - APC Smart protocol driver 0.20 (0.42.0) /dev/cuaa0 is locked by another process I am going to take a stab and say this is the locking issue with freebsd and the serial port and this program. I have tried different UID's as well making a dedicated user for Nut and setting the permissions on the serial port for this user and I get the same response. Is there a work around present for this???? If so please let me know. I finally got over the gd library hurdle and am very interested getting this working on our servers here. Thanks in advance.

Though I was running windows 800x600 with 24 bpp just dandy. Windows no longer exists. HW is cirrus 5434 set integrated in the Compaq motherboard. Donor PC is a Compaq Presario 710 75 MHz Pentium with 40 meg ram. I read the readme on cirrus chips and made appropriate notes. I read the QuickStart.doc and FreeBSD readme as well. I then ran XF86Setup and all was going well till I hit 'Done'. It went and crunched some disk then came up with a message box that said something to the effect of: Could not start the X server. No other info was given. Then the screen went black. A second later it came up with an eye searing dot pattern with the mouse cursor as a big 'X'. The mouse is a PS/2 mouse and works fine (i.e. it moves and clicks). I thought I was done, as in hosed, and without a command prompt. I tried a bunch of keys and key combos (including the 3 finger salute) to no avail. I also tried ctl + alt + '+' which is supposed to switch video modes in X? I didn't want to turn the machine off as that is a bad thing to do. So I went to brush my teeth and think a little(12:30 am ya know). In the middle of brushing my teeth the disk starts to crunch like mad. So I figure things might return to some resemblance of normalness. Crunch crunch crunch.. on and on and on for about 10 minutes.... Then it stops and I get a larger version of the dotted screen and mouse cursor. No error messages shown. So I left it in that state. Dotted screen showing and mouse running. I turned off the monitor just in case. This morning I check to see if things had change.. hahaha not a bit different. What now? If I just turn it off without the proper shutdown how do I recover? I don't have the freq info for the monitor, nor is it listed on the shell. I'm working on getting it from the mfgr. Perhaps this was the problem. Still, I chose a default range that was good for the card and I know that the card and monitor can work together from the previous windows install.

Well, just doing, # vinum start scsivol.p0.s1 scsivol.p0.s1 is already up # vinum start scsivol.p0.s0 # vinum start scsivol.p0.s2 Seems to be not-so-deep magic that works. I had just been doing, # vinum stop # vinum start And making the assumption that 'vinum start' was pretty much identical to what you recommend that I do. That is, I figured a 'vinum start' went through and tried to start each subdisk individually. I was mistaken. Reviewing the vinum(8) manpage, specifically the details on the 'start' command, there are a number of bullets that discuss what happens to a subdisk when the start command is issued for it, and the subdisk is in a given state. There is no mention of what happens to a 'crashed' disk. That might have been helpful. I am not exactly sure how the documentation could have gotten the point that 'vinum start' is not identical to starting each object individually. Maybe it is just me. Thanks for the help. Prompt and to the point as usual. -- Crist J.

The permissions on my serial device are as follows: crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 28, 128 Oct 25 13:49 /dev/cuaa0 I am configuring NUT with the uid of 66 which is uucp and a gid of 68 which is dialer. The make and install go fine. After I have configured the etc directory for ups and I run /usr/local/ups/bin/apcsmart /dev/cuaa0 I get the following: Network UPS Tools - APC Smart protocol driver 0.20 (0.42.0) /dev/cuaa0 is locked by another process I am going to take a stab and say this is the locking issue with freebsd and the serial port and this program. I have tried different UID's as well making a dedicated user for Nut and setting the permissions on the serial port for this user and I get the same response. Is there a work around present for this???? If so please let me know. I finally got over the gd library hurdle and am very interested getting this working on our servers here. Thanks in advance.

(Using an ABIT BH6 rev1.0) > OK, try putting the CD-ROM drive on the secondary channel. The ATAPI standard includes rules as to allowable configurations. A common one is that an ATAPI device should not be a slave without a master. Many systems ship with the CD as the secondary slave but no secondary master (HD or CD) which causes problems to FreeBSD, moving the device to the secondary master solves the problem. Just because Windows supports "illegal" configurations doesn't make them right. So, Gustav, move your CD to the secondary slave with your 2 HDs as primary and secondary master or put both HDs on the primary channel and the CD as secondary master. James, if you've only got a CD on the secondary channel make sure it's jumpered as master, not slave. > The only difference is that I had upgraded my BIOS from one that did > allow the 2nd IDE channel to be disabled (from claiming an IRQ) to one > that did not.

I've just successfully gotten SO5.1A to install and run on a 3.X machine, so I've put together a little HOWTO document on it (attached). If you have any questions or comments, please CC me on the reply, as I don't subscribe to these lists. Thanks! --Mark ------------------------------------------------------------------------ $Id: HOWTO,v 1.1 1999/11/02 18:33:38 mark Exp $ RUNNING STAROFFICE 5.1A ON FREEBSD 3.X INTRODUCTION Up until now, I've been successfully avoided "office productivity software," but a recent change in my employment has seen an increase in MS Word documents and X-Cell Spreadsheets trickling into my mailbox. I imagine that other people are in the same situation; the ubiquity of these format makes it harder and harder to ignore them. StarOffice offers FreeBSD'ers the ability to work within these formats, while retaining an intelligent and literate operating system. All of the information necessary to get the Linux version of StarOffice up and running on FreeBSD is already on the Net. Unfortunately, it's spread all over, and some of the information from older versions doesn't seem to work with SO 5.1A. I've gathered this information into one place (there is very little new information here). Following this information, it should be pretty easy to get it up and running on any reasonably current FreeBSD system. PREREQUISITES Kernel ------ First, your kernel mush be complied with the following options enabled: options "P1003_1B" options "_KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING" options "_KPOSIX_VERSION=199309L" Furthermore, while I'm not sure that it's strictly necessary, it's probably a good idea to enable System V Inter Process Communications: options SYSVSHM options SYSVSEM options SYSVMSG as many emulated programs require them. Before you compile your kernel with these options, however, you may need to patch it. StarOffice uses a Linux-like reading of the /proc file-system to process command line arguments. Code which emulates this facility has been added to the kernel recently (initially in January of 1999, but it looks like additional work was done in August. So, if you're not tracking -STABLE or -CURRENT, you'll want to verify that your kernel has this ability. I've attached a UUENCODED file of the patch at the end of this document. Decode it with "uudecode" and then check it against your procfs_status.c file: cd /usr/src/sys/miscfs/procfs/ patch -C < /path/to/procfs-status.patch If you see a message that both hunks were successfully applied, then you probably need the patch. You can apply it as above without the "-C" option: cd /usr/src/sys/miscfs/procfs/ patch < /path/to/procfs-status.patch (as root), and then recompile your kernel. Libraries --------- Make sure you have a current version of the Linux_lib port installed. On my system, I'm running 2.6, and it seems to work well. The package is in /usr/ports/emulators in case you haven't installed it. There is much discussion as to the version of Lib C necessary to run StarOffice. Libc 6 (aka glibc) is required, and the StarOffice Installation Document goes on about how to install them if you don't have them -- it even references a GZIP file that isn't present in the distributions (at least not in the down-load version). As of Linux_lib-2.6, however, glibc is included, you make sure that you've installed at least that version of the package. Utilities --------- You will need one of the unzip versions from /usr/ports/archivers Startup ------- You must ensure that Linux emulation is enabled on your machine. The easiest way to do so is to add the following line to /etc/rc.conf so that it will be enabled at boot: linux_enable="YES" If you're not sure if you're currently running the emulation module, you can use the kldstat command to verify all loaded kernel modules. If kldstat lists "linux.ko" you're set. If not, you can execute: kldload linux to enable this emulation on-the-fly. The above modification of /etc/rc.conf will enable it on boot. File System ----------- Like most modern "productivity" suites, StarOffice takes a hefty chunk of disk-space: make sure you install it to a partition with sufficient free real estate. One potential "gotcha" is the installation process itself. The setup program unzips megabytes of temporary files into /tmp. Many FreeBSD systems have small root partitions, so you may get "file system full" errors when you try to run the installation process. If you keep a small root partition, you may want to temporarily reassign /tmp to another partition. For example: cd / rmdir tmp ; # or "rm -R tmp" if it has stuff in it mkdir /usr/tmp ; # If it doesn't already exist ln -s /usr/tmp /tmp TWO WARNINGS! First, if you need to move /tmp for the installation process, don't remove it while you're in X windows. If you do, your X session will probably start acting flaky; if that happens, shut down X and restart it. Secondly, make sure to move /tmp back to the root partition when you're done: cd / rm tmp mkdir tmp chmod 1777 tmp As part of the boot-up sequence, some programs may need access to /tmp before the other partitions are mounted. Having said that, I've installed UN*X systems with /tmp in its own partition and not had problems -- I'm not sure if FreeBSD complains about this -- but if you don't already have /tmp in its own partition, make sure to change things back before your next reboot. PREPARING FOR SETUP You will need to unpack the tar file in a directory that has about 70 megabytes free. If you've unpacking it from a download, you may want to unpack it from one partition to another, depending upon just how much space you have free. For example, tar xvf so51a_lnx_01.tar -C /path/to/big/partition will unpack the files into /path/to/big/partition. This will also be useful for people who have the CD. Now that you have the files unpacked, you may want to look at the setup document provided in the so51inst/documentation directory. It's a PDF file, so you may need to install Acrobat As an added bonus [Acrobat is a good test to see if your machine is correctly running Linux programs]. DON'T RUN SETUP YET! Unfortunately, there are libraries that the setup process needs that you'll need to install by hand. Move the setup.zip file into a temporary directory and unzip it. Note that the libraries will need to be in lower case, so check the man page of your unzip to see if you can force that. My copy of unzip will do that with the "-L" option: unzip -L setup.zip After you've unziped the libraries in setup.zip, you'll need to move them into the /usr/compat/linux hierarchy. For example: mkdir /usr/compat/linux/usr/so5/ cp *.so /usr/compat/linux/usr/so5/ Next, you will need to modify your /usr/compat/linux/etc/ld.so.conf file so that it knows where to find these files. If you put them in the ./usr/so5 directory as above, add the line: /usr/so5 to this file and run /usr/compat/linux/sbin/ldconfig Please note that you no matter where you place these libraries in the hierarchy, don't include the "/usr/compat/linux/" path prefix. The linux ldconfig included in linux_libs seems to be chroot(8)ed, so it will assume that prefix. After you've completed the setup, so can remove this directory and the libraries that it contains, as well as removing the line that you've just added to ld.so.conf. StarOffice keeps it's own local copies of these that it adds to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH when you start it up. RUNNING SETUP OK! We're ready to run setup. Change to the unpacked directory and run ./setup /net as root to start the installation process. Choose a directory on a large partition and if everything has goes well, in a few minutes you will have the software installed. The StarOffice installation documents state that for a network install (the /net switch above) you should choose "custom" in the installation process and choose everything. I don't know if this is really necessary, but you may want to consider it. My guess is that one does this to be polite, but it's *possible* that the network installation requires files that aren't installed by default. If you're installing to a directory to which you have write access, it's probably not necessary to run as root. AFTER INSTALLATION Modifications to the soffice Script ----------------------------------- OK. You've installed the software, and you're ready to roll! Well...not quite. There are still a few things that you'll need to take care of. Change to the ./bin/ directory of the directory to which you installed the software. Make a backup of the soffice script (unless you like to live dangerously) and open it in your favorite text editor. There are a few lines that you'll need to change. First, change the line that defines "$test" from *) test=/usr/bin/test ;; to *) test=/bin/test ;; (unless your test really is in /usr/bin for some reason). Next, change the line that performs the test from: if $test -L "$0" ; then to if $test -f "$0" ; then Lastly, change the line that read sd_script=`ls -l $0 | sed "s/.*${sd_basename} -> //g"` to read instead sd_script=`ls $0 | sed "s/.*${sd_basename} -> //g"` and save your changes. Modifications to applicat.rdb ----------------------------- While the software will work at this point (but don't run it until you've done the personal installation below), the plug-ins will not work. Apparently, there is a file, applicat.rdb, that is modified in the setup process on Linux, but for some reason is not modified in the FreeBSD install. Fortunately, there is a work-around. At the end of this document there is a UUENCODED binary patch to this file. You will need the xdelta port to apply it (which is located in /usr/ports/misc). After uudecoding the patch, apply it to applicat.rdb: cd /office/bin/directory xdelta patch /path/to/patch/applicat.patch applicat.rdb This will create a file called applicat.rdb-GOOD in the current directory. Back up the old applicat.rdb (just in case) and copy the applicat.rdb-GOOD over top of it. PERSONAL SETUP Now that you've installed and patched the software, you will need to initialize it for each account that is to use it. Logged in as the account from which you will be using the software, change to the ./bin/ directory to which you installed and run ./setup This will copy about 3 megabytes of files you your home directory, query you for some information. This sets it up so that you will be able to use the software as "yourself." [NOTE: Because you installed the software as root, I'm not sure if this process can be run from the root account. When I tried it, it complained about the software already having been installed] And thats it! One more thing: As part of the personal setup, a copy of the soffice shell script is copied into your home directory. The software doesn't seem to work if you attempt to start it from there: instead, call it from the bin directory directly. You can make it easy on yourself by placing that directory in your path. Good Luck! THANKS TO: Most of the information in this document came from the many FreeBSD'ers who have been kind enough to post their knowledge to the web.

I am very new to FreeBSD, and pretty new with various bsd's or nix OSes. I am trying to install the current version from ftp, and I have successfully made two floppies, kern.flp and mfsroot.flp which don't have support for my hard disk controller. I have found the source for the support under the fp server directory: /-current/src/sys/dev/ata and I suppose I should use the ata-disk.c and .h files, but I need help making these into a new kern.flp file. The controller is the HPT366 one on an Abit BE6 mainboard. The installation goes quite smoothly until it tries to find a partition to install to, and it doesn't see the disk b/c the controller isn't supported. The partition I'm gonna install to is already formatted. I do not have a *nix or *bsd OS currently installed, but I have access to a FreeBSD shell account that I might could use to compile or make with.

In order to accomplish this I had to put a small scsi disk on the onboard controller, install onto this smaller disk, recompile the kernel to include the ida drivers. Once the machine recognized the raid array I then partitioned as I wanted and moved the filesystems (find . -print | cpio -pdvm /mnt/newfilesys). It took a little finessing with boot device orders and the system partition but the machine hasn't had any problems... If I was doing it again I'd probably throw another disk in and mirror as the performance is probably hurt a little with raid 5. One thing to remember is that it probably is a good idea to keep your swap off the mirror as it would kill your performance...I just kept the scsi disk on the onboard controller for swap. You could just as easily use the raid utility and set aside a swap disk that isn't mirrored. Oh...and the machine is running 3.2 --Ian _____________________________________________________________ Ian Clendaniel Conectiv Systems Architect Infrastructure Management ian.clendaniel@conectiv.com http://www.conectiv.com Int:235.5577/Ext:302.451.5577 Pager:800.225.0256 PIN:207595 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Nov 2 11:38:23 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from merkur.hrz.uni-giessen.de (merkur.hrz.uni-giessen.de [134.176.2.12]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 39DDF1543D for ; Tue, 2 Nov 1999 11:36:55 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Ariel.Burbaickij@mni.fh-giessen.de) Received: from caspar.mni.fh-giessen.de by merkur.hrz.uni-giessen.de with ESMTP for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Tue, 2 Nov 1999 20:36:46 +0100 Received: from sun33.mni.fh-giessen.de ([134.176.183.133]) by caspar.mni.fh-giessen.de with esmtp (Exim 2.12 #6) id 11ijdG-0004ik-00 for freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org; Tue, 2 Nov 1999 20:30:14 +0100 Received: from localhost (hg9456@localhost) by sun33.mni.fh-giessen.de (8.9.3+Sun/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA10911 for ; Tue, 2 Nov 1999 20:38:19 +0100 (MET) X-Authentication-Warning: sun33.mni.fh-giessen.de: hg9456 owned process doing -bs Date: Tue, 2 Nov 1999 20:38:19 +0100 (MET) From: Ariel Burbaickij X-Sender: hg9456@sun33 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: persistent problems with printer 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 after installing kernel i still get this strange messages from lpq warning:daemon not present warning:lp is down ps waux|grep lpd shows daemon running lpc start|enable all enables /quesues the printing what is it?

The problem is that using a device in the secondary slave without a prior one in the secondary master violates ATA def. All i did to solve it: jumpe it to master.

Maybe I guessed wrong... You can start vinum in /etc/rc, but at that time /tmp is mounted read-only, so nothing gets written anyway.

Ok, let me try and nut this out. You've customised your kernel config file (as attached) and you want to use DHCP to pick up your ip address from your ISP? I think, trying hard to recall, that you need to have included in the kernel the Berkley Packet Filter stuff. So where you have the bpfilter line commented out, I think you need it in. > > # The `bpfilter' pseudo-device enables the Berkeley Packet Filter. > # Be aware of the administrative consequences of enabling this! > # The number of devices determines the maximum number of > # simultaneous BPF clients programs runnable. > #pseudo-device bpfilter 1 #Berkeley packet filter Also, I think you need to have a number in the order of '4' (not one), and you need to MAKEDEV the bpf* devices in the /dev directory. > > If you got down this far, thank you so very much for doing this. > > Jeremy > > P.S.

Don't know who to bug about it,so, asking you kind freebsd users. I need to make a distibuted web based mail system with traffic load control. What i do not uderstand is how to control trafic. Let's say I have N SMTP servers and M WEB SERVERS. When a user connect to web server the system must check which of the servers is less loaded and connect the user to that server. Also, when SMTP or POP user connects it also must patch the user to the least load server. The mail and personal data directories re shared via network filesystem. I know that this kind of traffic control has been made hundreds of time, but it seems that i missed it and have no idea how it is done. Help me out with this, please.

Howdy again. :) I have done a little more expirmentation with this sound card. I had done all the above, yesterday with no success. :( So I started to look at the device driver for the es1370. Playing with the probe function, I noticed that it was looking for bytes like so: #define ES1370_PCI_ID 0x50001274 What I was getting was: #define ES1371_PCI_ID 0x13711274 From some of the other PCI code, it appears that the 1274 is a vendor ID number. So it looks like it is an Ensoniq card, but it is possibly a 1371 instead of a 1370. When I allowed the 1371 "string", I couldn't boot (write_codec times out). Does anybody know if these two chips are close enough to make this work? Anybody know where I might find some literature on it? :) Thanks, Mike --------------3CA42999AC7B88E2A5A42AA4 Content-Type: text/x-vcard; charset=us-ascii; name="mruhl.vcf" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Description: Card for Michael J.

Anybody know where I might find some literature on it? :) sounds like you have one of the "new" PCI128's ... you might be in luck. As luck would have it, somebody posted this to -stable this morning. I suppose you might not have seen it. From: Kent Boortz I have the old chip set but there are patches for the new one at ftp://ftp.thebarn.com/FreeBSD/es1371/ Also read http://x35.deja.com/getdoc.xp?AN=540222133 http://x35.deja.com/getdoc.xp?AN=540375012 http://x35.deja.com/getdoc.xp?AN=539474778 An owner of the Ensoniq brand seem to use another solution.

NT Workstaiton? Freebsd runs "extremely" well for task such as a intranet server, a backup media, games server etc etc. Had to learn that the hardway when I migrated to Redhat and the operating system trashed the intranet server and using the documentation I made and the backup of the contents recovered back to Freebsd. If your the system administrator of your network I suggest you get Freebsd and get rid of SuSE :) That is unless you are not the system administrator and your boss tells you he wants Linux :) I believe you can run StarOFfice 5.1 on the latest version of Freebsd Or if you run earlier version of Freebsd you can get StarOFfice 3.1 And Freebsd can live synonmously with NT.

In the ipfw(8) manpage, "fwd ipaddr [,port] Change the next-hop on matching packets to ipaddr, which can be an IP address in dotted quad or a host name. If ipaddr is not a directly-reachable ad- dress, the route as found in the local routing table for that IP is used instead." Allow me to translate. The next hop for the packet, _but not the destination IP_ is changed to ipaddr. And note that this means that the routers in between the fwd'ing machine and ipaddr have to know what's up since the destination address is _not_ changed to ipaddr. In summary, using 'ipfw fwd' is really not what you want to be doing. You probably want to be using natd(8). It does what you want. -- Crist J.

One such port is `socket-1.1'. Works like a charm. For a while I was running a MUSH off one of my boxes. I changed the MUSH over to another box, and added the following entry into inetd (on the original box): mush stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/bin/socket socket beetle.laurasia.com.au mush (In /etc/services there was an entry for `mush', defining its TCP port number. The mush, BeetleMUSH, has since been squashed, and no longer exists. Nor does beetle, the machine referenced above) Requests for the MUSH service were transparently switched over to the new server. Hope this helps!

How can you tell if your FreeBSD system is able to talk to your network? If that's what you are asking then the ping program would be something useful. Take a look at the ping man page for more info. The basic idea is that you "ping" another server/client/router/etc on your network to see if the two can talk to each other. -- Joseph Scott joseph.scott@owp.csus.edu The Office Of Water Programs - CSU Sacramento To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Nov 2 23:46: 4 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from axl.noc.iafrica.com (axl.noc.iafrica.com [196.31.1.175]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7066B14F10 for ; Tue, 2 Nov 1999 23:45:57 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from sheldonh@axl.noc.iafrica.com) Received: from sheldonh (helo=axl.noc.iafrica.com) by axl.noc.iafrica.com with local-esmtp (Exim 3.040 #1) id 11iv5h-0003yu-00; Wed, 03 Nov 1999 09:44:21 +0200 From: Sheldon Hearn To: ROBERT BECKETT Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Soft link /var to /usr/var In-reply-to: Your message of "Tue, 02 Nov 1999 17:12:11 PST." <3CCB23D4024CD311913700E018C10281B897@MAILSERVER> Date: Wed, 03 Nov 1999 09:44:21 +0200 Message-ID: <15307.941615061@axl.noc.iafrica.com> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Tue, 02 Nov 1999 17:12:11 PST, ROBERT BECKETT wrote: > I am completely new to unix and have come up against a problem.

That means doing this: mv /var /usr ln -s /usr/var /var You probably did this: ln -s /usr/var /var Since /var already existed, the ln command created a symlink to /usr/var in the existing /var directory.

I could give you a patch that'd do it. However, because you're using CVSup instead of CVS, you'd have to apply the patch after every CVSup.

They're all mode 0755. Ciao, Sheldon.

The rest of the answer is that you can easily restore the permissions and ownerships of the entire /usr hierarchy to their original values with this command: mtree -deU -f /etc/mtree/BSD.usr.dist -p /usr Ciao, Sheldon.

I thought that I'd done the make upgrade going from 3.0 to 3.1 to get from aout to elf but maybe I hadn't. My other box is a 3.3-stable and built perfectly well as far as I can tell but no the second box I am getting top: nlist failed man(3) nlist refers to a.out(5) so I was wondering if this implied that I still had a.out bits in what I had though ws an elf setup. I have had a look at the archives but I am obviously not quite searching for the right thing. Is there a simple way to tell which parts of the system are a.out and whcih parts are elf? If aout /elf is the problem is there a simple fix? Eg should I try a make upgrade on the problem box or is there a reference to other bits to change that I should check? Or am I heading down the wrong path? --kit To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 3 1:41:47 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from monkeys.com (i180.value.net [206.14.136.180]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0527A14E66 for ; Wed, 3 Nov 1999 01:41:42 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from rfg@monkeys.com) Received: from segfault.monkeys.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by monkeys.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id BAA10195 for ; Wed, 3 Nov 1999 01:41:38 -0800 (PST) To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: ipfw and firewall questions - getting some strange packets Date: Wed, 03 Nov 1999 01:41:38 -0800 Message-ID: <10193.941622098@segfault.monkeys.com> From: "Ronald F. Guilmette" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I recently configured and installed a fresh FreeBSD 3.3 kernel (with the firewalling stuff enabled) on one system I own, and I've been slowly tuning my firewall rule set for this box so that I'm won't be getting lots and lots of log messages about unimportant and/or unsuspicious events. I started from the "simple" firewall rule set in the /etc/rc.firewall file, but I've made a number of adjustments for stuff that I know is coming from trusted outside hosts. Still, I'm getting a fair number of log messages about denied packets... perhaps 100 a day. Most of these seem to fall into two categories: 1) TCP Packets that are marked as `fragments'. 2) UDP Packets coming from all sorts of different hosts and that are directed to my port 137. Should I be concerned about either of these categories of strange stuff? Or should I be allowing them thrw the firewall? Or should I perhaps just be silently discarding them without making syslog entries for them? If these things are entirely benign, then I'll just open holes in the firewall for them. But I don't even understand what they are. Is it OK to allow TCP packet `fragments' thru? What exactly is the `netbios-ns' service (UDP & TCP port 137), and why are so many people trying to query mine, even though I don't have one, and have never had one (at least as far as I know)? Are these queries signs of nefarious and/or unsavory activities on the part of the senders? Or is this just one more symptom of Microsoft-induced brain damage?

This is MS induced. Ports 137-139 are the netbios RPC ports (TCP and UDP). Anyone going to a web site of your running IE will most likely try to also make a RPC connection. You can safely discard them without logging. I would log failed attempts at other ports, to show you when you are being scanned/attacked. Fragments are somewhat normal, but since there are some attackes based on them, it may be best to block them and see if anyone complains. (Also, look at what ports are being dropped, and from who they are originating.) Jerry http://www.bellnetworks.net/cs On Wed, 3 Nov 1999, Ronald F.

The only thing missing is my soundcard, I can't get it to work at all. I'm using FreeBSD 3.1, my soundcard is an Ensoniq AudioPCI64. I tried to reconfigure my kernel with some options from the LINT kernel like: controller snd0 device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 7 drq 1 I also tried this since it's a PCI card: controller snd0 device sb0 at pci? port 0x220 irq 7 drq 1 and did in the /dev directory a "sh MAKEDEV snd0" of course I also rebuild the kernel with the new options. Please give me an answer at how to configure my soundcard... TIA, Jochem Kossen ww79@yahoo.com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Which isn't modified by cvsup or make world. As long as you merge the changes to /etc correctly, this change should propagate quite easily. Depending on how you merge the changes to /etc, of course.

Then what is the poor overloaded OS to do when you heap on yet more work? That it will allow the OS to swap out all does not mean the OS will actually do just that. Well, maybe some OS's do or at least it looks like some do, but I haven't noticed it with Unixen. Roelof -- Home is where the (@) http://eboa.com/ is.

Not the most recent ones. Most notably a 75 MHz Pentium (clocked at 90) on an Intel Plato MB. The disk is a somewhat more recent Quantum EL 5.1 Fireball. This disk has several layouts: cyl's hds sec mode 10602 15 63 NORMAL 623 255 63 LBA 662 240 63 LARGE I installed 3.3 using FTP with the BIOS set to LARGE addressing mode. Install went smooth. Although I did notice that fdisk reported the disk as having NORMAL mode. After install was done I proceeded with the reboot. Up to the "Default: F1" prompt all went fine. Thereafter all that happenned was the appearance of a "-" (or "_") below the D from Default and that was that. So, how to proceed. I assume that it is somehow getting the wrong disk parameters although I would've thought at this point all goes through the BIOS. What I'ld do just as lief is booting through diskettes, telling it which disk to use and be done with it. However that is not as simple as it ought to be. I manage to boot and access the fixit disk, but not more than that. The root still points to some diskette and when you exit it wants to reboot. During the boot process I did manage to list some disk specifics: disk1s1a: FFS 40 MB (63 - 81983) disk1s1b: FFS 132 MB (81983 - 354143) disk1s1e: swap 20 MB (354143 - 395103) disk1s1f: FFS 4694 MB (395103 - 10009440) Finally, when booting under Linux (floppies) that does detect the correct BIOS parameters.

I just saw a comment saying > too much space will allow the OS to swap everything to disk and reduce > performance. Needing "too much" swap backstore space is an indication that you do not have enough RAM. Backstore is not used unless there is no more free RAM and the page that is being freed from RAM is dirty. The amount of swap backstore space is really a measurement of application memory use versus physical RAM in the machine. Let us say that we are in a situation that required a lot ("a lot" and "too much" are again measured relative to the amount of RAM in the machine) and you did not provide that swap the VM system will start killing processes. The question you need to ask yourself, which would I rather the system do in this situation, thrash when other previously backstored pages are needed by the applications or have some programs automatically killed. Both of these indication need for more RAM, the philosophy of recovery until more RAM is placed in the system is the issue. --mark tinguely.

BTW this is usefull when you want to disable a user account without deleting it, just run vipw and add a "*" mark in to the password of the user, and when you want to re-enable this user again, just remove the "*" mark from the password of the user. So I think it wouldnt be wise if you take this accounts out of your system, they dont represent a security risk. Greetings Ales ----- Original Message ----- From: Scott I.

My personal rule of thumb is: wait three days, then look at your prior message. Did you provide all the information you had? Were you polite, or might your earlier message have inadvertently pissed off people? Is it something that there are other resources available to solve? IMHO, most unanswered mail falls in one of these three categories. Now, I haven't seen your earlier reply; I spent the last week in NYC, and deleted my -questions queue unread. I will ask two things: 1) Are you using apsfilter (/usr/ports/print/apsfilter)? This has solved *all* of my printing problems! 2) Have you used the other FreeBSD resources to solve your problem? If you're not sure, check out http://www.blackhelicopters.org/~dispatch/bsd-self-help.html for a FreeBSD problem-solving resource tutorial. ==ml To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 3 8:36:52 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from revolution.3-cities.com (revolution.3-cities.com [204.203.224.155]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 68B7014D86 for ; Wed, 3 Nov 1999 08:36:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kstewart@3-cities.com) Received: from 3-cities.com (kenn1224.bossig.com [208.26.241.224]) by revolution.3-cities.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id IAA12951; Wed, 3 Nov 1999 08:35:15 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <3820642E.A37C98DA@3-cities.com> Date: Wed, 03 Nov 1999 08:34:54 -0800 From: Kent Stewart Organization: Columbia Basin Virtual Community Project X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (WinNT; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Ariel Burbaickij Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: I badly need your help with my printer as usually References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Ariel Burbaickij wrote: > > It is to my regret the same picture > /usr/sbin/lpd > started in bootup sequnece > lpc enabled queueing printing > lpq on contrary still give warninggs of the art:lp is down, > daemon not present I would suspect that you haven't started "lpd".

Drew- I'm not 100% certain, but this sounds like a routing problem to me. If I was you, I would try the telnet again while doing a 'tcpdump' on the outside interface of the FreeBSD box and also on the Solaris box. My guess is that the Solaris box is receiving the packets from the FreeBSD machine, but isn't correctly routing them back. If that's the case, you might need to look over your route tables on the Solaris box.

To do this, I am using canned UNIX scripts that write the data from tape to a UNIX file. We have several older tape drives in our office that can read these datatapes properly. The newest drive cannot. As suggested above, with the new drive, the script appears to start reading the data, the UNIX file keeps getting larger and larger until the disk is full or until I CNTL-C to stop the process. I doesn't appear that any real data is being written into the UNIX file. I have asked our vendors for info on what kinds of tape drives they are using to write the tapes, but that request seemed to stymie them. Again, any strategies or pointed questions that I can ask them ( or our own support group) would be appreciated.

You might need to recompile. Do an "ifconfig -a" and see if the interface is listed under another name. (On NE2000-compat cards, it will sometimes be ed1, etc.) However, FreeBSD's default settings for an ISA NE2000 card is port 0x280, irq 10, and iomem 0xd8000. If your card is not configured with those settings, you will probably need to recompile the kernel. If the card is an ISA PNP, you will need to check out the handbook on using PNP cards. (I don't have much experience with ISA PNP cards and FreeBSD... sorry.) Finally, if the card is a PCI NE2000 compat card, then the interface will most likely be ed1. Or, if you're not even using a NE2000 card, you could have any number of other options. The best thing to do (to start out with) is check out "ifconfig -a" and see if your interface is already listed.

What I have is: zone "197.109.192.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "lemishosts.reverse"; }; zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "localhost.reverse"; }; The first is the reverse lookup for my domain, which is what you seem to be missing. localhost.rev[erse] is typically the name for the reverse lookup file for 127.0.0.1. I'd guess that this is your problem. If you've only removed named.conf, you should find a reverse domain file in the directory; just do something like my example.

Well, depending on the size of the files, you can waste a lot of space by making them separate.

I read the man and what it >suggested is what seems to be on my sys. TIA. xdm is like a server. It doesn't really care what path or shell that any of the multiple users want. It just manages the display. It sounds like there is a slight concept error here. A user does not "run" xdm. A user connects to xdm in order to start an x session. What the user actually runs is a 'window manager' which puts up your user interface and is generally the parent process for all other process in your session. I do not know if your window manager reads or modifies PATH and SHELL. You have said you are having trouble with PATH and SHELL. Are you having trouble with a particular shell and it's config files? If you use bash for example, there is a distinction between 'login' shell and 'interactive non-login' shells. login shells use .bash_profile and non-login shells use .bashrc. When you run xterm, you are using a non-login shell. You must know how the shell you desire reads its rc files to get the correct behavior.

(Also, >look at what ports are being dropped, and from who they are originating.) I _did_ do that, and that is a part of what made me ask the question. Some of the TCP packet fragments seemed to be coming from an unimpeachable source... a machine belonging to country NIC of India. As regards to the port numbers... well.. this seems to be a small flaw in the logging aspect of the FreeBSD kernel firewall code... When reporting rejected packet fragments, it ONLY logs the sources and destination IP addresses, and doesn't bother to mention either the source port or the destination port. (I'll file a PR on that right now.)

From time to time, one or two or very few machines outside the class C subnet but inside the class B net are not reachable - traceroute doesn't show any(!) successful hop, and `netstat -r' or `arp -a' don't show anything special with that machines. I will be able to traceroute to `a.b.c.n-1' but not to `a.b.c.n' in such a situation. Adding a static route to the machine, tracing the route and then deleting the static route will be a workaround - the system will stay reachable after that sequence. Any idea why the whole thing happens?

I have never seen analysis to back that up, but I trust the developers to steer me right. Hmmm. Good question. I would guess that too much swap isn't really bad. It will allow you to use more memory. Now we know that programs that have to swap a lot get slowed down, to be sure. But we don't run just one program and VM doesn't merely use disc space as memory. The VM system stores most recently used data in main memory while allowing least recently used data to drop out of buffers back to disc or nevernever land. So if you had beaucoup processes with a lot of them just putting along in the background in a least recently used (sic) status, when those process were awakened, they might have to read swap and be slow. Active processes would keep data in main memory. I would think it would depend a lot on your application too. ::conjecture:: If you analyze the performance of the system in a pseudomathematical way you might find that two competing activities of fast VM versus slow swapping combine to form a "local maxima" for system performance depending on your application. It would be very cool to see this sort of analysis for wcarchive. I am sure that DG must have looked at these numbers. (Assuming DG did not care about peoples tranfer rates, bad assumption) Swap and VM is probably why maxusers went up to 6500 and then back down to 5000. I got this from "Design of the Unix OS" by Bach. There is more on this in /usr/share/doc/papers by David Greenman an the VM system. I am not a kernel hacker so people might be able to poke holes in what I have said.

I just saw a comment saying | too much space will allow the OS to swap everything to disk and reduce | performance. | | -jonathon +--------------- Too much swap allocated wastes disk space that could be used for something else. But there are valid reasons why you might want to configure lots of swap. One is that you are using the mfs for /tmp and want to store big files there. If swap is large then big files and old files will tend to be in the backing store rather than in memory. You will not generally have a performance hit from just allocating too much swap. And using to much swap is also not always an indication of a problem ether. The big indicator is the 'page out rate' and the 'scan rate' reported by vmstat(8). These indicate how often memory pages are moved to backing store and dirty pages are cleaned for re-use. chris __ Chris Fedde 303 773 9134 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 3 10:10:11 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from post.mail.nl.demon.net (post-10.mail.nl.demon.net [194.159.73.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A6D8014C84 for ; Wed, 3 Nov 1999 10:10:04 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from marc@oldserver.demon.nl) Received: from [212.238.105.241] (helo=propro) by post.mail.nl.demon.net with esmtp (Exim 2.02 #1) id 11j4rC-0002IR-00; Wed, 3 Nov 1999 18:10:02 +0000 Date: Wed, 3 Nov 1999 19:10:01 +0100 (CET) From: Marc Schneiders To: Antti Kantee Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: trouble with ntop & 3.3-RELEASE In-Reply-To: <19991103154908.B10021@cs.hut.fi> 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 Wed, 3 Nov 1999, Antti Kantee wrote: > I have a box I remote administer but ever since I upgraded from a > snapshot between 3.0 and 3.1 to 3.3-RELEASE I've had problems.

When I run ntop (from the ports) on 4.0 current, it tries to eat up an awful lot of CPU time. Over 50% on a dual PPro 200 MHz.

Hard drive started kicking up unrecoverable errors. Replaced the drive, but also replaced the motherboard, cpu, memory, and network card. The system is now AMD K6-2/450, 128mb RAM (PC100), FreeBSD 3.3R, and a Kingston PCI 10/100 card (mx0 driver). The OS installed fine. Building a custom kernel generated a Signal 4 from cc1 everytime. One at a time I replaced the RAM, CPU, and motherboard. I've double checked all the mainboard jumpers. I've reinstalled the OS from scratch several times. Nothing made a difference. Finally I clocked the CPU down to 300mhz (the cpu is a real 450, I wasn't overclocking). Now the thing seems to run fine. This K6-2 includes this newfangled 3dNow! support. Stepping shows 12. Chipset is ALI with Award BIOS. Is there a known problem with this? Has anyone else run on this same machine? I believe SIG4 is invalid instruction. The Kernel build always catches a single sig4 (no 11's, etc.). Please CC me on all replies as I'm not on the list currently. THANKS in advance!

Sun UK were sending them out free :) Maybe they didn't charge me because I put "FreeBSD UKUG" as my organization (although it came addressed as "FreeB S D U K U G"), but then several others at work got them free as well. BTW, apparently you can buy the CDs with customized screen printing so, for instance, a company could have their name and logo on them and distribute SO to all their customers.

I originally tried ``locate ctlseqs.ms'' which threw up nothing. Thinking that it might be gzip'd I tried ``locate ctlseqs'' and voila /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/doc/ctlseqs.TXT. Unfortunately it doesn't answer my question, ESC[ is just described as "Control Sequence Introducer (CSI: 0x9b)". Guess they are X and not xterm escape sequences. Thanks for the ESC sequence. You're right, it's diffcult to capture. It returns "]lxterm-color\" in the window it (a small C program) is run in, but if you ``> /dev/console 2>&1'' all that appears is "[21t". Hmmm... I tend to have lots of xterms running (and before anyone replies that I'm dis-organized; check the header to this mail, I already know :) ) and have an alias for cd(1) that writes the current dir to the title bar and use "set windowname" in vi(1). What I'm trying to do is patch mutt(1) to save the window title and restore it after editing a message instead of just restoring it as "xterm-color". > -- > Kevin Street > street@iname.com > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message -- STATE-OF-THE-ART: Any computer you can't afford.

I am running a FreeBSD 2.2.8 machine configured as a nfs server. We are trying to get another machine running 2.2.8 to mount from the nfs server. Our challenge is that we are using a virtual ip and would like to mount the virtual ip. We are already doing this with SCO unix as well as Sun Solaris. The problem is that when I type mount -t argonnfs:/u /u (I have also tried with -o -i,-s,-r=1024,-w=1024 options and all permutation of the options, including mount_nfs -T) I'll hang waiting for the request to time out. After extensive trouble shooting, I think it is because of the "security feature" to prevent NFS cookie spoofing based attacks. Basically, there is an nfs check that will not allow freebsd nfs client to request an nfs mount and have the machine where the nfs request is being made to reply with its real ip instead of the virtual. It is as if freebsd hangs becuase the reply for the mount came from a second ip address. Please reference the following url from Terry Lambert. I tried to find the patch that was mentioned in the url, but could not. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?db=irt&id=Pine.BSF.3.91.961031140040.536K-100000@dyslexic.phoenix.net Can anyone help me or point me in the right direction. I would like to disable the nfs check or find a work around. The reason we use the virtual ip address is because we have designed some failover code that allows us to failover nfs in about 3 seconds, from one system to another. By passing the virtual ip around from one machine to another, all the machine that had mounted the filesystem never really notice an outage. With a RAID attached and exporting the filesystem, we can achieve high availability of data (not quite fault tolerant, but getting there). Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I'll hang waiting for the request to time out.  After extensive trouble shooting, I think it is because of the "security feature" to prevent NFS cookie spoofing based attacks.  Basically, there is an nfs check that will not allow freebsd nfs client to request an nfs mount and have the machine where the nfs request is being made to reply with its real ip instead of the virtual.  It is as if freebsd hangs becuase the reply for the mount came from a second ip address.  Please reference the following url from Terry Lambert.  I tried to find the patch that was mentioned in the url, but could not.
 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?db=irt&id=Pine.BSF.3.91.961031140040.536K-100000@dyslexic.phoenix.net

Can anyone help me or point me in the right direction. I would like to disable the nfs check or find a work around.  The reason we use the virtual ip address is because we have designed some failover code that allows us to failover nfs in about 3 seconds, from one system to another.  By passing the virtual ip around from one machine to another, all the machine that had mounted the filesystem never really notice an outage. With a RAID attached and exporting the filesystem, we can achieve high availability of data (not quite fault tolerant, but getting there).

Any help is appreciated.  Thanks.

I really hope there are just two different versions of PCI128 :-( I have a SoundBlaster PCI128 with the es1370 chipset running 3.3-STABLE following the STABLE branch with 'cvsup'. The relevant parts in the kernel configuration are controller pnp0 device pcm0 at isa? port ? tty irq 15 drq 1 flags 0x0 controller pci0 # PCI bus support (I changed the irq from 10 to 15, I have forgot why...) I tried out that sound playing works using 'play', part of the 'sox' program. I did % mixer vol 80 % mixer pcm 80 % play known_to_work_sound_file.aiff I had to comment out two lines in the 'sox' package. I assume this is because the 'pcm' and PCI128 support is still in beta stage, not production code. oss.c: /* if (ioctl(fileno(ft->fp), SNDCTL_DSP_SYNC, NULL) < 0) { fail("Unable to sync dsp"); } */ I haven't tried recording yet so I don't know if that works. kent To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 3 12:25:28 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from secure.smtp.email.msn.com (cpimssmtpu07.email.msn.com [207.46.181.28]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id CE2D6150A4 for ; Wed, 3 Nov 1999 12:25:22 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from juha_saarinen@email.msn.com) Received: from dendennis - 203.79.82.14 by email.msn.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC; Wed, 3 Nov 1999 12:24:08 -0800 From: "Juha Saarinen" To: "Alejandro Ramirez" , Subject: RE: Kernel compile fails (fwd) Date: Thu, 4 Nov 1999 09:17:00 +1300 Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook IMO, Build 9.0.2416 (9.0.2910.0) Importance: Normal In-Reply-To: <026c01bf261b$f48829c0$bdc3fea9@megared.net.mx> X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Gracias Alejandro!

I am still wondering how to manage trafic and direct it to the least loaded server. Here is what i mean: There are 3 SMTP servers, which are very loaded. However they are all available to users under the same name smtp.domain.do, when a user connects, the system determines which host is least loaded and directs connection to that server. I know it is done, but i do not understand how it is done. The boxes are FreeBSD 3.1. Please, if you have some info on the subject or can direct me to the proper help source, share that with me and the rest freebsd community.

I am still wondering how to manage trafic and direct it to the least loaded server. Here is what i mean: There are 3 SMTP servers, which are very loaded. However they are all available to users under the same name smtp.domain.do, when a user connects, the system determines which host is least loaded and directs connection to that server. I know it is done, but i do not understand how it is done. The boxes are FreeBSD 3.1.

Ports 137, 138 & 139, are used by Microsoft's NetBios services.

You are certainly better off just discarding them, since NetBios is used in Windows networks for sharing filesystems and printers, and you're not really interested in exporting your filesystems (or printers for that matter to someone "outside" your firewall). Logging is not necessary, unless you are interested in knowing that you're being scanned. Of course, after a while, it can get boring to see all those denied packets on your console; so it's your choise whether you will log these denied packets. > What exactly is the `netbios-ns' service (UDP & TCP port 137), and why are > so many people trying to query mine, even though I don't have one, and > have never had one (at least as far as I know)?

Depends on your definition of 'brain damage.' Someone who is using his dialup connection to scan hosts just for fun is certainly not very balanced mental-wise, probably just too bored, probably without a life, but brain damaged... oh, I don't know. -- Giorgos Keramidas, "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

On the old SB cards the speaker jack was right next to the db15 game port jack. On the PCI128 they moved the speaker jack to two away from the db15 jack. Also by default the internal amplifier is turned off. To get anything out of non-amplified speakers you have to change the jumpers right behind the speaker jack from the lower position to the upper position.

Try deleting some stuff in /tmp. Alternatively, if you've never doing anything to change it, your /tmp is probably on the root partition, which is pretty small to begin with. You check the free disk space by typing 'df -k' at the comand prompt. If the /tmp dir is still on the / (root) partition I would strongly suggest moving it to a larger partition, such as /usr.

Can't remember > the reason though, dedicated registers? Unfortunately, that is not true. The 3DNow instructions use exactly the same registers as the MMX instructions. In fact, you can use MMX and 3DNow computations at the same time. For example, you can use an MMX instruction to negate the result of a 3DNow computation efficiently. There are two things which make 3DNow CPUs somewhat more usable than MMX-only CPUs: First, 3DNow supports floating point operations (MMX is integer only), so you usually don't have to switch between standard FPU mode and 3DNow (or at least not that often). Second, AMD invented a new instruction called "femms" which can be used to switch between FPU and 3DNow instructions, much faster than the intel MMX CPUs can. But, still, any such switch will clear FPU and 3DNow/MMX registers, because theyre mapped to the same register space internally. Otherwise, it would not be possible to have multiple programs working with MMX/3DNow in a multitasking operating system in which the scheduler has no specific support for saving and restoring MMX/3DNow registers.

SCSI disks still tend to be faster on spin speeds and access times. up to 10k for SCSI vs like 7200 for IDES (and I still think that most of the latter are 5400) As far as I'm aware, the UDMA and all that jazz that IDE drives do still isn't as good as what SCSI does -- ie. you're still going to get better multitasking, especially on an Un*x operating system out of a SCSI disk. of course, my knowledge might be way out of whack here .... marc.

The last character only goes to 'v' because that gives an even power of 2 (32) combinations. 8*32 = 256 total devices. If you don't see them in /dev, run "./MAKEDEV pty0 pty1 pty2 pty3 pty4 pty5 pty6 pty7", which will create all 256 device files. > Please cc' me, as I'm not on this list due to the high volume of > traffic it generates.

I can install the extensions and set up a Root Web okay, but when I attempt to create per-user/sub webs I get an error along the lines of: /home/www/foobar does not exist DocumentRoot/UserDir Failed Where foobad is a directory in the apache.conf which does actually exist but fp_install.sh will not recognize. I tried changing ownership, permissions and all of that stuff. But I still get the same error. Do I need to change the actual mode of the directory or is this just an error with Microsoft's script? I don't want to install the apache-fp port/package simply because I already have an apache server running with PHP and mod_perl installed, and I would rather not install the modules again, but if that's the only solution, so be it.

That is to say _ALL_ NFS requests fail, I can't log in as root, etc. If I set use NFS version two on the server (mountd -r -2), automount on the Solaris machine fails due to a version mismatch. Then if I mount by hand (with -overs=2), I get the same failure behavior, which is that after the mount request (succeeds), the NFS server completely freezes up. Has anyone seen this kind of thing before? (Noting the comment in the handbook, dmesg reports that the ethernet device is: fxp0: rev 0x08 int a irq 19 on pci0.9.0 which I suspect doesn't have the problem mentioned in the handbook) Any clues?

During the initial learning/dev period I wish to be able to run both client and server on the same machine. The problem I'm encountering is not knowing how to stipulate different login/radlogin targets for the getty on different ttys. gettytab puzzles me, as I only see "login" in there once, and cannot determine (I haven't tried -very- hard...) if it is a prompt or a call. I also see in /etc/ttys that getty is called with a particular type 'Pc'. Am I safe taking a carbon-copy of this 'Pc' def'n line in gettytab and renaming it 'RadPort' for modem port use ? Any particular values I should reset or watch out for ? Or should I be thinking of swapping this getty out for mgetty or some other agent for this service/configuration? Thoughts and opinions welcomed. Cheers, Erik stainsby@telus.net ======================================== There was no year zero.

This will apply to the execution of /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xsession and the scripts it calls (like ~/.xsession). However, if you have relative components in your path (specifically, '.', the current working directory), it's not a good idea if you're going to be using xdm to log in as root (big security hole). Also, if you declare search path information relative to the user's home directory ($HOME/ or $HOME/bin), it won't work with setting the resource in xdm-config (because the xdm-config method doesn't handle the environment variable substitution). Also, note that you can't set other environment variables (like $MANPATH) with Xresources--just $PATH. Instead, I declare environment variables at the top of the Xsession script with PATH=...;export PATH and MANPATH=...;export MANPATH statements. I leave off any relative components, and include these in the user's ~/.xsession file (excluding, of course, root). You could also include any system-standardised environment variables, if you wanna. In terms of changing a user's default shell, try vipw(1); each user's line specifies that user's default shell. Fiddle with this to change shells.

The revision of /usr/share/mk/bsd.prog.mk and other makefile = includes I=20 have may be wrong. I tried the command:

I want to include a couple of email addresses in the /etc/adduser.message file. The file contains (among other lines): Har du noen spЬrsmЕl kan de gjerne stilles til pil@gtf.ol.no eller til trond@gtf.ol.no. However the addresses appears as: Har du noen spЬrsmЕl kan de gjerne stilles til pil.ol.no eller til trond.ol.no. to our users. Is the @ character not allowed in /etc/adduser.message? I have worked around this problem by inserting spaces before and after the @ character but this doesn't look nice at all. Should I use variables from /etc/adduser.conf instead?

I knew that I need to modify the config files of the shell I'm using, but doing that yeilded no change in my shell or path settings. So I assumed that xdm used one of it config file to set path or determine what shell config file to get these setting from. I modified every shell config file on the sytem for one accountant the added PATH setting in each of the xdm config file xresources, xsession etc. Still nothing. Final I switched back to wdm to try it, it final started on boot correctly and it place a filem Xrootenv.0 in my /root directory, I edited this and now seems to work, haven't tested the user accountant yet but hopefully this will hold true for all accounts. > -----Original Message----- > From: William Richard [SMTP:wdr@tdl.com] > Sent: Thursday, November 04, 1999 2:51 AM > To: Person, Roderick > Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: Re: XDM question. > > It is possible to set up path information from an X resource in > xdm-config in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm, specifically setting > DisplayManager._0.userPath equal to the desired path (comma-delimited > list, like sh(1)).

This applies to past versions of qpopper and the latest 3.0b20. What happens is, intermittently, there will be several popper processes spawned, that appear to be stuck in "lockf" state. I have to killall them, HUP sendmail and it works for a short time, but it happens again. I've recompiled sendmail and popper against the latest libs. I recompiled popper with --enable-servermode to see if that would work. No go. This is a complete mystery, and I wonder if anyone else has seen this problem.

Thank you. It would be easier if you gave us some information about the messages you're receiving. However, you might have a job set up to do something odd in your crontab. The command ``crontab -l'' will list the contents of your crontab. if you spot a job that you think might be causing your problem, you can remove it with ``crontab -e'' . Ciao, Sheldon.

Every pr I've sent so far has been initially filed as pending, followed-up as a Misfiled PR, and then moved to the category I meant to send it to. It usually takes a while for someone to notice it in pending, and so its been hard to keep ports that I maintain up to date. (see ports/11734, ports/12300, ports/12476, ports/12744 ...) It doesn't seem that all prs begin as pending, and if so, why are mine followed up as misfiled? According to the GNATS documentation: If a Problem Report arrives with a `>Category:' value that is unrecognized by the `categories' file, or if that field is missing, GNATS places the PR in the `pending' directory. but I'm certain I filled out the category field correctly (ports). I could see making a mistake once or twice, but... I even tried using the web interface, and still the format was wrong somehow. Also: GNATS does not have the ability to decipher random text, so any problem reports which arrive in a format GNATS does not recognize are placed in a separate directory pending investigation by the GNATS administrator Random text?! As far as I can tell I've filled out the single-line text fields correctly, are any or all of the multi-line fields required? I usually get the patch into the pr with ":r shujit.diff" from send-pr/vim. I thought this might have something to with it so I tried just putting them on my web page and including an url. Since the same thing happened using the web interface, I don't see that it could be a configuration problem here. I must be just filling something out wrong, but I can't figure out what. Any ideas? Thank you.

It just gets on with the job of shifting data and leaves the CPU free to do other things. That is one of the main reason SCSI is more expensive than IDE. One good real world ways to see the difference between IDE and SCSI is copying large amounts of data from a CD-ROM to disk under Windows. Even with NT (which is supposed to be multi-tasking) if you start copying a large volume of data from IDE CD -> HD and watch the CPU usage meter in Task Manager it will run way high with IDE and hardly anything with SCSI. On my machine (K6-233, 64MB) it was ~95% and that slowed everything else down to a crawl, clicking in a partly hidden window would result in several seconds wait as first nothing happened, then the window outline was drawn, and finally the window contents. When I changed to all-SCSI the CPU utilization dropped to ~5% and the window raising happens almost immediately, practically as fast as normal. > of course, my knowledge might be way out of whack here .... > > marc. > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message -- STATE-OF-THE-ART: Any computer you can't afford.

It is not a real filesystem, it is just a representation of the currently running processes, layed out like a file system. More likely than not you are out of space on your root partition (/). And more to the point, /tmp. The best thing to do is to move /tmp to a partition that has more space available on it, such as /usr. The way to do this is to type the following: rm -rf /tmp mkdir /usr/tmp ln -s /usr/tmp /tmp If this doesn't resolve your problem, reply to the list with the exact error message you are receiving and with the output of df -k.

I am hoping someone can call or email me with the best packages for these applications. I spent most of last night just loading and listing the cdroms to try and figure out what packages were contained, but it is too much data and all I can see are .tgz files and don't know really what the packages are. I am using K Desktop Environment to manage my windows. I have loaded the package from cdrom number 1 called astrolog 5.30 and I can run it from KDE, so I have just a beginner's experience with loading and running packages. I have never tried to install a port, but feel I could be coached to do it. I installed the Berkley database package from cdrom number 1 db-2.3.16.tgz but I haven't been able to start it or find any readme or text or documentation. Your advice is appreciated. Help!

As there's really not enough information to go on. What I can say is that the 1st time I tried to use it (on 3.2-STABLE) it would just core dump on me. Now, (on 3.3-STABLE) it does run, but it sucks down CPU time like there's no tomorrow. Do you have multiple interfaces on the machine? If so try running it on an alternate interface and see if it's somehow taking down that interface or really locking the machine. Alternatively, try running it WITH the GENERIC kernel and see if there is any difference (bpf is in the GENERIC 3.3 kernel). I've personally given up on ntop and now use trafshow. It seems more stable. At least for me it is. -Chris > -----Original Message----- > From: Antti Kantee [SMTP:pooka@iki.fi] > Sent: Wednesday, November 03, 1999 8:49 AM > To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org > Subject: trouble with ntop & 3.3-RELEASE > > I have a box I remote administer but ever since I upgraded from a > snapshot between 3.0 and 3.1 to 3.3-RELEASE I've had problems.

I just updated my apache from 1.3.3 to 1.3.9 using the current apache port. This went very smoothly as usual. When I tried to install the p5_Apache port I did not get any errors back. I copied httpd_modperl to httpd and tried to restart Apache. I found out that the new binary was looking for the httpd.conf in /usr/local/apache/conf. So I thought I could just use the -f option to specify the config file I wanted to use. I still had problems with this approach, because then I looks in the wrong directory for modules it is trying to load at startup. I could get around that, but I would rather just recompile apache with mod_perl support and the same config file path that I have always used. Can anyone tell me what I need to change, or how to go about doing this. Thanks for any help.

I have some stuff in /stand/sysinstall that do not install correctly, though. For one, the installation of 'sysinstall' itself is not going correctly at all. By default, there isn't even a /stand/ dir in /etc/mtree/BSD.root.dist. That's one. Second, when you do a "make all install" (in /usr/src/release/sysinstall) like advised in the recent handbook the binary installs as /stand instead as /stand/sysinstall since there's no /stand/ dir! I also made an interesting experiment. In fact, from the start, I wanted to install on a second drive as a backup to re-arrange my partitions and do a make world at the same time (pretty stupid idea, actually). By the time I find a viable way to do this, I discover the marvelous dump backup/restore utility, and I do the thing this way. Believe me, it is _much_ simpler: a boot floppy (well, now there's 3 of 'em..) a dump, and you're ready to go! But I was still worried. I wanted to have some kind of a 'clean' install. The dump simply got me to the point I was before, but with good partitions. So I effectively made: cd /usr/src && make buildworld && make DESTDIR=/mnt installworld to have a clean install on /mnt (my new drive) so that I could compare. Again, by that time, I discovered the marvelous mtree utility. :) So I made a mtree on /mnt and on my / to compare. I found out that mtree was lacking some basic functions such as the possibility to specify on which files you want to create a specification. Anyways.. So I found myself with 2 enourmous mtree outputs, that I had to 'diff'. That was the result: 47870 spidey 2 0 97908K 8340K select 3:05 8.35% 8.35% xemacs-21.1- and later: 47870 spidey 2 0 131M 10180K select 5:25 3.47% 3.47% xemacs-21.1- That's _so_ fun. :) I went diff'ing (ediff'ing, in fact) and found out that my current tree had 49Mb of stray files. This is the stuff that didn't get installed on the new system, but that was on my original system (we're not talking about the /usr/local/ or even /usr/X11R6 trees, here!). In there was some ports that were misinstalled (well, I guess it was... does anyone know what AlerT and binaries as such are??), perl 5.00502 (with the new 5.00503!!!) and some compat thingies (aout libs, etc.), residues of the sendmail suite I did not installed, etc. This box is a 3.3-Stable that went stable after a 3.0-RELEASE CD install. If you want the mtree output of the files that I removed, I could publish it somewhere, I guess. But I won't publish the mtree output of my tree, as it is something like 80Mb... One thing I removed, as I said, are the /usr/lib/compat libraries, as they did not install on the installworld. But then, netscape stopped working. So I put them back. But how do I build these again? Is this the COMPAT22 option in the /etc/make.conf? It should be announced more clearly that this is needed, if it is. you would be surprised of how much useless stuff gets into your tree if you don't take care of it... I wouldn't want to be forced to clean my /usr/local/ or /usr/X11R6! :)) So, that said, I can only say BRAVO! to the FBSD team, as I have a great box here working night and day as hell, with no real bad surprises..

It's used for sending mail, for transferring news batches, as a deprecated replacement of ftp, for a zillion of things, but not for writing to and/or reading from tapes.

However, try using a less "stripped" down version of command output, when you post commands, because it might be a little hard to guess which line is your input, and which is output you got. Try something like: # ps ax | grep lpd 1630 p1 D+ 0:00.02 grep lpd On the printer topic now... It might be a bit helpful to send your relevant /etc/printcap entry, along with a small explanation of what you expect it to do. Other changes to the filters used for printing, could probably help in understanding what's wrong. But, just a silly question... when you talk directly to your printer, using /dev/lpt0 does it actually print what you send?

If you want to run fetchmail, as Annelise pointed in her reply, and you're thinking of some way to have it run in `daemon' mode, but only when the ppp link is up, the /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup and ppp.linkdown files are your friends. I have in /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup !bg echo 'fetchmail -d 300' | su - charon and in /etc/ppp/ppp.linkdown killall fetchmail As for cron now. You can tweak the /etc/periodic scripts to touch a file every time they finish successfully, and then manually run another script that would check if the proper interval has passed, and launch `periodic' if too much time has passed without crond noticing it.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I am brand new to FreeBSD, and almost that new to unix. I have sucessfully installed it and gotten it to dual boot to win95. I have upgraded my internet access to utilize ADSL before I ever dreamed I would join those who run unix boxes (you). My DSL modem is a Cisco605 (occupying a pci slot) and I would love to be able to use it when booted to FreeBSD. When FreeBSD boots up and probes for hardware it finds an "SMC like device" and I'm assuming that this is the modem (the only other cards in my computer are a scsi controller, a video board and a sound card). I haven't had much luck finding documentation addressing dsl modems. I'm tired of running into something I want to find out about, then rebooting the computer to access the internet and then returning to FreeBSD requiring yet another reboot. My questions: a) where (if anywhere) to look for information about dsl modems on FreeBSD? b) does SMC like device imply that I might get away with treating the modem as a nic card? and (if yes to b) c) what (in your opinion) is the worst thing that could result from pretending the modem is a nic card (I'll survive a reboot or five - I've had lots of practice running windows all my life) d) accessing the internet via win95 requires that I dial up (the phone number my isp told me to plug into win95 dun is '1'). Does this change your answer to question b to "no" by default? I would appreciate any and all input.

It does not seem to be the case with my user-ppp, but if you're downloading a lot of things, it could be some other thing, like user-ppp taking a lot of cpu? Anyway, Navigator takes forever to load on my machine even without ppp loaded. I don't use the time navigator needs to load as a performance measure, since I'm suspecting that it needs just a lot of memory to load fast... which my 32 Mb machine does not have anyway. Try this.

The /proc filesystem is a pseudo-filesystem. It does not actually take space in any of your disks, save an i-node or two. If you're running out of space though, it might be a good idea to check where all that space has gone. Use the df(1) command to see which of your filesystems are getting full. Since it is adduser that fails, I suspect that your / fs is full? Use the command # cd / # df -sk * to see which subdirectory of / is using a lot of most space. Use the same `df' command in subdirectories, until you spot places where you could save some space. With 3 Gb of space, I would expect about 2 Gb to be free on an installation of FreeBSD with X11, and all the sources, along with a couple of compiled kernels and all their objects (this is actually my setup). If you have installed a lot of stuff from /usr/ports you might consider removing all the tarballs from /usr/ports/distfiles and all the work directories under /usr/ports with: # cd /usr/ports # find . -name work -type d -exec /bin/rm -fr '{}' \; That will save you some space. At least it did for me... -- Giorgos Keramidas, "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

The repository shows that src/etc/etc.i386/MAKEDEV contains the worm* entries up to and including version 1.168, but the diff with 1.169 does not show that they were removed.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Having been spoiled by slackware which sports a handy facility that allows one to boot from a couple of floppy disks but still have the root be the winchester, I'm wondering if such a trick can be done with FreeBSD as well. What I've tried thusfar is to boot the kernel diskette, then let it load the MFS root disk. At the prompt "Hit [Enter] to boot ..." I press space. At the prompt I give "rootdev=disk1s1a:", followed by "boot -c". This sort of works. I mean, I can eject the floppy before executing the boot command and it'll still boot. Clearly from the winchester. So far so good. It breaks down after the system has been loaded. At which time the sysinstall Main Menu comes up. I can live with that, but what I can without is the fact that it reboots the machine upon exit. Even that wouldn't have been so bad had the emergency shell at least had the decency to have the intended root. It doesn't. The fixit option is also pretty much useless for my purposes in that it roots to the floppy disk. Therefore, is it possible to boot from floppy and if so, how?

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

However, the boot process changed a bit from 2.2.x to 3.x, and I am hesitant to tell you what is the "proper" way to do it. The _easiest_ (possibly not most proper) thing to do is take a copy of the kern.flp floppy and mount it. Put the exact command sequence you would enter to boot the way you want (see boot(8) to figure that out) in boot.conf on the floppy. Using the boot/loader.config (see loader(8)) might be the prefered way to go now-a-days. HTH. -- Crist J.

A: Configure DSA to use AHA-1540 emulation using EISA configuration utility. After that FreeBSD detects DSA as Adaptec AHA-1540 SCSI controller, with irq 11 and port 340. Under emulation mode system will use DSA RAID disks, but you cannot use DSA specific features such as watching RAID health. -- End quote -- Since the above claims that Dell proprietary RAID controller can be used in FreeBSD (by some trickies :P), I would like to know whether my PERC controller can do the similar way.

I work the student administration office of a University and we are considering doing direct e-mails of information out to students to save on paper and envelope stuffing. We need to be able to easily create template files that can then be filled in with custom information for each student - name, address, course details, etc. It'd be really great if, as well as plain text files, we could also produce PDF or postscript files if required. Any ideas and feedback greatly appreciated!

Could you be so kind saying
is it possible to find a LOCALE for
the cp1251-r Russian encoding or
some (deep enough) description of
the localization mechanism in FreeBSD
which can help to create it myself.

Thank you in advance,

Check out the apsfilter port in ports/print, it installs many filters you can play with to accomplish this.

The situation is as follows: We have a redhat 6.0 server which currently has a NIS server on it. Two other redhat linux servers (one 5.2, one 6) connect to it no probs, and can do so using broadcast or direct requests to find the YP server. I'm trying to hook in a new FreeBSD 3.3 box to auth using it. I've set it up, and everything looks as if it should work (ypcat passwd on the BSD box gives me the passwd file, ypwhich tells me the right name of the authing server, +::::::::: is added to the end of the passwd file on the BSD box, finger -m on the BSD box gives me a user's finger info, portmap is running, ypbind is running) - but it won't authenticate users (just gives a login failure). I can even su to any user on the BSD system, or login if I disable authentication. Everything (it seems) works except the actual authentication itself. Maybe the authentication is incompatible? If so, does anyone know how I can make it compatible? Any hints people could give me would be great...

Guilmette" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Some questions: Is there any such thing as a tutorial anywhere on the proper setup and use of a memory filesystem? Or does the mount_mfs man page really tell me all I need to know? If I want to create a memory filesystem of, of, say, 64MB, do I really need to first allocate a 64MB disk partition on my disk drives somewhere and then provide the /dev/ name of that to the mount_mfs command as the ``special'' device file parameter? The man page for mount_mfs says that when you unmount one of these memory files systems, all data in that (former) filesystem is lost. OK... Simple question: Why? I note that the same man page also says that ``The special file is typically that of the primary swap area, since that is where the file system will be backed up when free memory gets low and the memory supporting the file system has to be paged.'' OK, so if the system is smart enough to page out some parts of one of these memory filesystems when it gets generally low on memory, then why shouldn't it also be smart enough to simply (a) page out the *whole* filesystem to some designated hunk of disk space as/when the memory filesystem is being unmounted, and then (b) page the whole thing back in again (presumably from the same hunk of disk space) when the thing gets mounted again? That would provide a nice sort of persistance effect for these memory filesystems, even across (orderly) reboots.

If it matters, I export all file systems except /. As follow-up to my own question, and a search on Dejanews (sorry "Deja"), I found that adding /etc/crypt-null -o port=3049,nfsv2 localhost to /etc/exports (mkdir /etc/crypt-null followed by chmod 0 /etc/crypt-null) now lets me mount using # /sbin/mount -o port=3049,intr localhost:/etc/crypt-null /crypt and then cattach works as expected. Perhaps a note in the port to make this explicit is in order? Perhaps add "/sbin/mount -o port=3049,intr localhost:/etc/crypt-null /crypt" to rc.d and a note about the line to add to /etc/exports after the port install.

The FreeBSD installation is the 2nd (dedicated) disk; disk 1 is Windows 98. I have just installed an "Iwill 2930C SCSI Adapter" which seems to be a clone of the Advansys ASC3050 SCSI card. On boot up I now get configuration errors and a panic, followed by reboot. The BIOS reports the following at boot-up: Onboard USB Controller Slot 1 Ethernet, IRQ11 Slot 2 SCSI, IRQ10 Onboard IDE, IRQ 14,15 AGP VGA, IRQ11 I have tried the following: Reinstalled FreeBSD 3.2 in the 2nd drive (there's nothing of importance on the drive, just the result of previous hacks...), but the same error messages occur. Here they are: adv0: rev 0x03 on int a IRQ10 on pci0.9.0 adv0: Warning EEPROM checksum mismatch. Using default device parameters adv0: WARNING! Failure writing to EEPROM. adv0: Advansys Ultra SCSI Host Adapter, SCSI ID 7, queue depth 240 ... adv0 not found at 0x330 (this appears only if adv0 is NOT deselected in visual config) Waiting 15 seconds for SCSI devices to settle down... panic adv_qdone: completed scsiq with unknown status Syncing disks... Reboot....... etc Irrespective of whether adv0 is deselected in the visual config, I cannot get the reinstall to work. It seems the GENERIC kernel is configured with both adv0 and adw0 by default. The only thing I've spotted is that FreeBSD uses a different IRQ to that reported by the BIOS; the visual config screen does not allow me to change IRQs nor Port addresses for this device, just the flags. I have checked through the mailing archives, but didn't find much except that the Advansys cards have only more recently been supported (not so, apparently in 1997). There was one mailing with a mention about CAM devices (whatever these are) and some references to CAM devices in the release notes to 3.2 - but in the section indicating that the Advansys cards seem to be supported. Anyone know what the problem is and how to get it configured? Many thanks for your help.

I have reached the point of MADDNESS, so listen to my story. I believed I could use cdrecord for that, but I could not figure out the device to feed , it needs somthing like dev=0,6,0 or dev=2,0 to be able to get the scsi bus number , target number, and lun number, after sweating there for sometime to try to get the device name correct, I finally realize that cdrecord is for SCSI drives ONLY. so, looking for an allternative, I went to this list, and some people recommended 'wormcontrol' actuall there's a couple of scripts in: /usr/share/examples/atapi, and /usr/share/examples/worm unfortunately they don't work. the problem is they are searching for /dev/rworm0 device, and I tried to use sh /dev/MAKEDEV worm0 or worm1 or rworm0 or rworm1, but the MAKEDEV can't create them, only a commented line: 'worm* WORM DEVICE' is there in the MAKEDEV. so I went to man worm, man wormcontrol, and they indicate that worm device has been removed since FreeBSD-3.0, and functionatlity replaced by CAM scsi driver. going back to kernel configuration looking there, there is 'controller scsi0' and 'device cd0' and 'pass0' trying to MAKEDEV cd0 passes ok and cd0a and cd0c are created. NOW, what can I give the wormcontrol, or cdrecord, or whatever program, the device name ?? I tried everything. acd0a, acd0c, cd0a, cd0c, rcd0a, rcd0c I have even symlinked them to worm0, rworm0 and tried all possible combination. Please ANYONE succeeded to burn on IDE cdrom drive please give me an email, this is very frustrating, as the FreeBSD, changes from worm device to cam scsi and man page mention future releases will have no worm device, but will incorporate through the cam device, so I am currently lost. Mentioning that the CD is my only way of backing up my system, you can realize how critical it is to me, and may be others to get to the BOTTOM of this and make it work. ANY feedback on this is VERY WELCOME. thanks in advance. ===== MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I have included the output from startx and will attach my XF86Config. Here is my setup. ATI All-In-Wonder 128 PCI Board with 16 MB RAM. I retrieved the X Server from www.suse.de/en/ support/xsuse/ . Per the instructions I downloaded and installed the server (After installing linux_base, etc.) I needed to download the fix for older glibc based systems and apply it. I also had to make a symlink from /dev/ttyvb to /dev/tty00 and /dev/tty13 as it gave me errors otherwise. When the X server is run I get the error: xf86OpenConsole: VT_ACTIVATE failed but when fed a CTRL+C it will continue to load. The nice GUI flashes for a second and then X shuts down. This is a (as of today) 3.3-STABLE box. Any idea's would be greatly appreciated.

The setup works fine, but I find that ppp is dialing out every few minutes. I have stopped sendmail, I have no named running. I have no cron jobs. How can I proceed to see what triggers the dialing out?

Luigi's driver won't detect the board no matter what i do, neither will the voxware sscape drivers. I have heard of some people having some luck detecting them as sound blaster boards, because, from what i can gather these cards to hardware soundblaster emulation. Though no matter what settings i give it sb0 won't seem to detect the card either. the only voxware driver that will detect my card thus far has been mpu0 and it is merely a midi driver unless i am mistaken. However, OSS is very happy to detect my board as an Ensoniq Soundscape PnP Model 2. I will attach my kernel config file, my dmesg, and the output of pnpinfo. If anyone has any idea's as to what i might do to get this card working please let me know.

You can grep for the port numbers in /etc/services to see what they do. 'man tcpdump' for details of course Once you find out what is causing the problem, you can set up a filter in ppp.conf to prevent it from dialing on that condition.

However when I check the network configuration on each host they all have the same MAC address. I have tried to put one of the NICs in another PC (a clone machine) and it writes the same address as in the other 6 cases. Then I tried to use the "Diagnostic tool" for the NIC and it prompts different MAC addresses for each NIC (the one reported by FreeBSD is not one of them). When I try to perform an "arp -n " I get the error "no entry". Can You please help me? My kernel config file looks as follows.

One of those times that ppp has dialed out on you, with no apparent reason, try using sockstat to see the open sockets. Look for a socket whose `FOREIGN ADDRESS' column is not a local interface address of your machine. Then lookup it's COMMAND column to see which program opened this socket. -- Giorgos Keramidas, "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

Sorry to say this, but you should have got the 675 and an Ethernet card for the extra $50. Are you running 256 Select? (It requires a 605 for political reasons). There are no drivers other than Windows 9x/NT for this card. Cisco did not release specs so others could write drivers. There is mild pondering going on as to making a driver for MacOS. Also, as of yesterday, the 605 has stopped production. It is being replaced by an Intel card (based on the 605), I forget the number.

Paul. -- "Suppose they gave a war and nobody came." This popular saying of the late 1960's, used as the title of an american movie in 1969, can be traced directly to the similarly worded title of an article written in 1914 by Charlotte Keyes and published in the October 1966 issue of McCall's magazine. In his poem "The People, Yes" (1936), Carl Sandburg looks to a time when "they'll give a war and nobody will come."

Please tell me how to control this 78%. Well, this is showing how much of /var you are using. One way of dealing with it which we have talked about recently is to symlink /var to a different directory. For example, on my machine, i do not have a separate /var directory. But if i did, it would be under /usr/var. Search the mailing list for /usr/var and you will see the command to copy the /var directory to a different one and symlink to it. > >Regards, >bunny@super.net.pk > > -jonathon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 5 6:39: 8 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 C54F01522A for ; Fri, 5 Nov 1999 06:39:02 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jcm@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org) Received: from dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org ([130.88.200.97]) by serenity.mcc.ac.uk with esmtp (Exim 1.92 #3) for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org id 11jkVf-000GjM-00; Fri, 5 Nov 1999 14:38:35 +0000 Received: from localhost (jcm@localhost) by dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id OAA89846 for ; Fri, 5 Nov 1999 14:38:35 GMT (envelope-from jcm@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org) Date: Fri, 5 Nov 1999 14:38:35 +0000 (GMT) From: Jonathon McKitrick To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: DELL laptops...

I wrote one a while back for something like this -- end-of-month accounting. It's perl: http://www.shenton.org/~chris/nasa-hq/dialup/radius/ I originally wrote for a Livingston dialup, then modified to handle Ascend detail files. You may have to hack it for your format. There are some other tools there, like a web-based user account maintainer. I haven't worked on it in over a year so I'm not prepared to provide much in the way of help. The problem is that parsing a detail file for any reasonably sized population takes too long, especially if you do it on the fly. I've been playing with parsing daily-rotated detail file and jamming the results into a MySQL database. This makes ad hoc queries fast and flexible; very cool. The Cistron RADIUS folks have patches to send detail records directly to an SQL database but I haven't gone that route yet. I probably will when its successor (FreeRADIUS) becomes stable.

It appears that certain newer Pro/100+ boards have a different layout in the SEEPROM (or just different model SEEPROMs), and thus get the wrong information. Do you also see a "Unsupported PHY" message come out during the device probe for fxp0? It might help if you could tell me about the specifics of the Pro/100+ cards - like the exact model/revision information off of the box it came in. I haven't yet seen any of the 'broken' boards yet myself and attempts to get information from Intel about this have dismally failed. -DG David Greenman Co-founder/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project - http://www.freebsd.org Creator of high-performance Internet servers - http://www.terasolutions.com Pave the road of life with opportunities.

Or rather, how to prevent it. What say you? Dump that kernel for my GENERIC one? But then, what is a mfsroot? It does access that diskette before presenting the countdown prompt. I just learned that the creation of a DOS partition would solve my problems, probably. But that means reinstalling from scratch. Not to bad, but I'd rather boot from diskette.

I have a list of what kde needs to install to work from the documentation. What i am looking for is a way to check to see what is installed and what is installed and running on my system so i can make the kde install with out any problems. What commands do I need to check out what version qt or xfree86 if any I'm using and what is the best way to upgrade packages if they are not the latest? Some stuff is installed buy default or as a dependency of something else and so i need to find out what is there. some thing show up in ps and some don't ( I think ). I have used the make files in the ports collection before but it always disturbs me that I have no real idea what they will do or what they did when I run them. I man make and it doesn't really help me understand the the process very well. I look at the online documentation and the handbook and some of it helps buti can't find some thing that doesn't assume I know things I don't.

I've been a tickled pink user of FreeBSD for several years now. However, I've been having some trouble and I don't want to submit a bug report if the answer is that I simply don't understand. I'm having trouble using some 37.5gb IDE disks under 3.3. I talked to a Linux using friend who pointed out that Linux has had a bug in its IDE driver for disks larger than 32gb. I spent a few minutes going through the 3.3 source and found what seems to me to be a similar limitation. In the file wd.c at line 861 the Logical Block Address translation appears to limit the number to 28 bits by ANDing off the top 4 bits of the 'head' value. (I hate using 'head' since this is dealing with the IDE kludge called LBA but you can see what I mean.) My math says that 2**28 sectors of 2**9 bytes equals a total of 2**(28+9)=2**37= 128 gigabytes so there shouldn't be a problem but still a similar limitation. I'm very sorry to bother you about this, but could you please tell me whether 3.3 should be able to talk to my 37gb IDE disks? Every time I run newfs on them to create a huge filesystem things work great until I attempt to do anything to the filesystem. Then the system simply panics with a "corrupt Inode" message. I submitted a bug for this on Vinum (I was originally trying to span 4 of these monster disks with Vinum). I now suspect that the problem is more basic.

I can't get the builtin sound card to set the volume as high as the Microsoft software does. I suspect it's misrecognizing the chip and using a compatibility mode, but I can't get Dell to tell me what's in there, let alone how to program it. 2. I can't run two PCMCIA cards on the machine without trickery: there don't seem to be enough spare IRQs. The only way I've been able to do it is by disabling the PCIC and using its IRQ for one of the cards. This means that if I then pull the card, the machine locks up. "Well don't do that then".

Yes, I've got Star Office running on my 3.3-STABLE box right this moment :-) Someone wrote up some instructions on making it work under 3.3 ( there were also some for 3.2 I think ).

Sounds exactly like you have a new Intel EtherExpress Pro/10+ card with one of the new hardware addresses. Unfortunately, the ex driver uses the hardware address to decide if the card is a Pro/10 or a Pro/10+, and I'm not capable of coming up with a better solution. So I just added the check for an Ethernet address prefix of 00:90:27 in addition to the existin check of a 00:A0:C9 prefix. Brad> So before I go in and completely mess everything up, I Brad> wanted to ask you: Brad> 1) Do you know if the driver has been update/fixed in Brad> 3.3-release? Nope. :( Brad> a) If not, are the changes you made specific to "your card" or Brad> do I need to determine something from my card before I go in? Brad> ie. does the prefix on the MAC address change regularly? Well, it depends on the hardware address of your card. If the ethernet address of your Pro/10+ NIC starts with 00:90:27 I'd expect my patch to work. If it doesn't, you'll either have to tweak the patch, or give me the prefix and I can tweak it for you.

If it isn't the same as what I had, and I expect that it is, then I'm clueless. :) Brad> 2) This is just to satisfy my own curiousity, but exactly what Brad> would I be doing by changing this stuff in the drivers? You would change the ex driver to recognize additional hardware addresses as a Pro/10+ card. Hope this helps.

When you isue the "delete all" command, you are making sure that no weird routes are going to be used to your ppp connection, and when you are using the "add default HISADDR" command, you are making sure that the IP Address of your service provider its going to be used as a default gateway, and all of your traffic are going to be sent to that way. > And what difference does it make > to add 'enable dns'? It seems my connection works either way, I think that you are enabling that your DNS requests are going to be resolved by your service provider, instead of another DNS server, (Maybe an Internal one with no recursion enabled). > notwithstanding the dropped connections, which i still haven't figured > out... :( After that you make sure that your dropped connection its not caused by: 1.- An idle timeout in your configuration 2.- An idle timeout in your service provider. 3.- A forced disconnection from your service provider after a X minutes of connection. 4.- A bad quality in your phone line (too noisy). You can use the "ppp -ddial" argument, some guys have soved his problems with this, and not just for remaking the call to your service provider when the link has been dropped, but they say that the had none reconnection in several days after they use this argument. > > -jonathon > Have Fun...

I would just suggest having RJ-45 jacks in each room, and wire it all with CAT-5 UTP cable. Have them all come to a common point in the house and plug into either a HUB or a SWITCH. Personally I would suggest a 10/100 Mbit Switch as you'll get better performance from a switch than from a hub, but the switch would come at a higher cost. If you're looking for hardware I would just suggest looking at the release notes for the current release of FreeBSD and pick hardware that meets that list. I hope this can get you started.

You need to look at the different authentication mechanisms in ssh. Check out the man page on ssh, that will give you details on different options. The best way I think would be RSA authentication protocol, but I haven't spent the time to set that up yet, so I can't really help much there. I'm almost afraid to say this, you could do it with rhosts authentication, but be very careful. -- Joseph Scott joseph.scott@owp.csus.edu Office Of Water Programs - CSU Sacramento To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 5 12:37: 1 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from pebkac.owp.csus.edu (pebkac.owp.csus.edu [130.86.232.245]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8E4F614C0E for ; Fri, 5 Nov 1999 12:36:58 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from joseph.scott@owp.csus.edu) Received: from owp.csus.edu (mail.owp.csus.edu [130.86.232.247]) by pebkac.owp.csus.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id MAA98996; Fri, 5 Nov 1999 12:35:51 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <38233FA1.49C25DC4@owp.csus.edu> Date: Fri, 05 Nov 1999 20:35:45 +0000 From: Joseph Scott X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.61 [en] (X11; I; Linux 2.0.36 i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Rick Knebel Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: staroffice References: <19991105150110.A965@rknebel.uplink.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Rick Knebel wrote: > > Hi, > I went to the site where there was thw how to on installing staroffice on > freebsd. > Everything went fine so far execpt where they tell you to patch the setup > and soffice scripts. > How do you do this exactly. > > I am sort of new and don't know if I replace these scripts with the > available text or jsut add the text to the scripts. > > I would appreciate any help If you are running a FreeBSD 3.3 take a look at : http://www.stat.duke.edu/~sto/StarOffice51a/install.html Using the above instructions I've been using Star Office on my box for over a week with out problems.

I'm too lazy to reboot into FBSD now (I don't have net on fbsd), so I can only tell you to grep LINT. Basically, it works something like device vpo0 at ppbus? Or whatever, I may be messing this up. The zip drive is considered a SCSI disk, so it would be da0 if you don't have any other scsi devices, or da* if you do. You need to have the scsi subsystem enabled to.

Anyway, I think I guessed what you are trying to say. You can't tell your BIOS to use this device in its own menu? And if that is true, you don't think the boot(8) code could boot from it either.

I _believe_ the kern.flp is boot blocks and kernel. mfsroot.flp has stand/sysinstall and those type of utilities. You can look at... at... I can't find a kern.flp handy, if you look at loader.conf or loader.rc, you can see the code that makes it prompt for the mfsroot.flp.

Not to > bad, but I'd rather boot from diskette. Ahh, a "dangerously dedicated" disk. You were warned! ;P Anyway, I actually want to be able to do this myself. I have a machine that usually functions as a src tree and ports dist server, but is also a backup. It ususally boots fine from the BIOS onto the IDE HDDs, but I am mirroring the machines it backs up on the various dangerously dedicated SCSI HDDs hanging off of it. It is an ol' 486, so I am 99.9% sure the BIOS will not like those SCSI drives. I plan on making up floppies to boot off of each backup should it need to take up the role. Then if there is a problem when I am not around, anyone can toss the disk labeled "mail backup" or "firewall backup" into the box and reboot it as that machine. I'll report my results when I find some time to get that working. -- Crist J.

I usually grep /var/log/ppp.log for CONNECT or ARQ. I have pmdemand for ppp setup to log the connect information. I normally grep ARQ because I don't always get a CONNECT on the line but I do see an something like 48000/ARQ/V90/...

No, it's as described in the /share/FAQ, I believe 39. The geometry does not get detected properly, to be fixed by putting a DOS partition on the disk.

I have come to relish the few times that I'm right about things BSD. This looks to be one of those times . I use -c to get UserConfig as stated by Greg on page 194. Indeed boot(8) says so too (good may in fact come from discussions and reading man pages since the -a option above looks promising, will test shortly). What happens without the -c is that I get presented the Kernel Configuration Menu, after which things proceed as described for the -c case. So all skipping -c does is introduce an intermediairy step. > I _believe_ the kern.flp is boot blocks and kernel. mfsroot.flp has > stand/sysinstall and those type of utilities.

Please do, since I'm stumped. The "boot -acv" didn't work in that it did not prompt me for a root device. Same old samo. The mfsroot diskette contains but a gzipped mfsroot file of ca. 700K. The kern flop contains more, but nothing that jumps out. The most interesting is ./boot/loader.config and all it does is echo beeps and load -t mfs_root /mfsroot # gee whiz, it already has set root! # small wonder the -a didn't work autoboot 10 and that's it. Unless I'm mistaken it's the autoboot 10 that prompts the prompt I use to abort and execute "set rootdev=disk1s1a:" and "boot -acv". But nothing about why the ./stand/sysinstall should be executed, not why it reboots. I wish thee luck and await thine results with bated breadth! Roelof -- Home is where the (@) http://eboa.com/ is.

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 third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999. You'll find this information on page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of Contents). See the end of this document for instructions on how to find the errata for an older version. You can get the current document in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ps. See page 302 of the third edition 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-3.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-3.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-3.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 Page ii _______ The instructions on page ii (opposite the title page) tell you to look at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2 for the errata list. That's wrong. Look at this list. Pages 190 and 191 _________________ The description is not very clear about which text appears when booting from floppy for initial install, and which appears when booting normally. The procedure is very similar, but there are some differences. Add the following text after the heading Boot messages: You'll boot your system in at least two different ways: initially you'll boot from floppy or CD-ROM in order to install the system. Later, after the system is installed, you'll boot from hard disk. The procedure is almost identical, so we'll look at both versions in the following examples. Replace the text from the middle of page 191 with: If you're booting from 1.44 MB floppies, you will then see: Please insert MFS root floppy and press enter: When you insert the MFS root floppy and press Enter, you see more twirling batons, then the UserConfig screen appears. UserConfig: Modifying the boot configuration ____________________________________________ After the kernel has been loaded, the following screen will appear if you are installing the system, or if you have requested it with the -c option to the boot loader: Page 206 ________ The bottom two lines on this page should be in bold constant font, indicating that this is input for your /etc/rc.config file Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition nfs_client_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS client (or NO). nfs_server_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS server (or NO). Page 265 ________ The example on the second half of the page refers to the old SCSI driver. The scsi program is no longer available in FreeBSD 3.x. Instead, use the camcontrol program. Replace the text with:. Modern disks make provisions for recovering from such errors by allocating an alternate sector for the data. IDE drives do this automatically, but with SCSI drives you have the option of enabling or disabling reallocation. Usually it is turned on when you buy them, but occasionally it is not. When installing a new disk, you should check that the parameters ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enable) and AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enable) are turned on. For example, to check and set the values for disk da1, you would enter: # camcontrol modepage da1 -m 1 -e -P 3 # scsi -f /dev/rda1c -m 1 -e -P 3 This command will start up your favourite editor (either the one specified in the EDITOR environment variable, or vi by default) with the following data: AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enbld): 0 ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enbld): 1 TB (Transfer Block): 0 RC (Read Continuous): 0 EER (Enable Early Recovery): 0 PER (Post Error): 0 DTE (Disable Transfer on Error): 0 DCR (Disable Correction): 0 Read Retry Count: 16 Correction Span: 41 Head Offset Count: 0 Data Strobe Offset Count: 0 Write Retry Count: 16 Recovery Time Limit: 0 The values for AWRE and ARRE should both be 1. If they aren't, as in this case, where AWRE is 0, change the data with the editor, save it, and exit. The camcontrol program will write the data back to the disk and enable the option. Page 3 The Complete FreeBSD Page 331 ________ The description of the config refers to the SCSI drive sd0. This is the old name; in FreeBSD version 3, SCSI drives are called da, so this reference should be da0. Thanks to Francisco Reyes for pointing out this problem. Page 362 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel: # cd ../../compile/FREEBIE # make depend # make The make depend is needed even if the directory has just been created: apart from creating dependency information, it also creates some files needed for the build. Thanks to Mark Ovens for drawing this to my attention, and to Francisco Reyes and Bill Fumerola for pointing out that it still wasn't fixed in the third edition. Page 409 ________ The information on setting the default routers specified the wrong end of the PPP links in some places. It should always be the ``far'' end of the link. Replace the second example on page 409, and the text following it, with this text: defaultrouter="139.130.136.129" # Set to default gateway (or NO). static_routes="" # Set to static route list (or leave empty). gateway_enable="YES" # Set to YES if this host will be a gateway. This is the normal way to set the default route on a point-to-point interface. In fact, for PPP you don't need to specify the default address: the PPP packages will set it for you when the link comes up. This makes it possible to Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition set default routes when you're forced to use dynamic IP addresses, where you don't know the address at this point. We'll see how PPP does this on page 446. In the first example on page 410, the sixth example on page 412 and the second example on page 413, replace the defaultrouter definition with: defaultrouter="139.130.237.65" # Set to default gateway (or NO). Thanks to Andreas Longwitz for pointing out this error. Getting errata for older editions of the book _____________________________________________ There have been a total of five different versions of ``The Complete FreeBSD''. The most accurate way to distinguish them is by the format date, which you'll find at the bottom of page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of Contents) in all versions of the book. 1. The first was titled ``Installing and running FreeBSD'', and was formatted on 24 February 1996. No errata list exists for this book. 2. For the first edition (19 July 1996), get ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/er- rata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/errata-1. I am no longer updating this errata list. 3. The list for the second edition (16 December 1997) 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 second edition 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 Page 5 Getting errata for older editions of the book 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. 4. The revised second edition was formatted on 11 February 1999. As the name suggests, it's not a complete new edition: in fact, only three chapters are different: o The chapter ``Setting up X11'' has been brought up to date. o Appendix D (``Contents of the Ports Collection'') has been replaced by two appendixes, ``Errata and Addenda'' (the errata list up to date at the time) and ``FreeBSD 3.0'', which describes the differences between FreeBSD 2.x and FreeBSD 3.x. There is no separate errata list for this book. Refer to the second edition errata list. 5. The current, third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999. This is the correct list for this edition.

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 breaking 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, -newbies or -hackers? =================================================== Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD, FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers. In addition, the FreeBSD-newbies list caters specifically for people who are new to FreeBSD and may be having trouble getting used to the environment. 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, first check whether this isn't a Frequently Asked Question (FAQ). There's a list of these questions at http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ.html, and also on your own system (once you've installed it) at /usr/share/doc/FAQ/FAQ.html. Check there, and if you don't find an answer, ask FreeBSD-questions. Examples might be questions about installing 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 almost 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. You should also enter a problem report with the send-pr utility. 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. If the question is of particularly technical nature, such as implementation details or suggestions for improvements, then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. If you're new to FreeBSD, and the message is about your own relationship to FreeBSD, send the message to FreeBSD-newbies. 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 out 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 don't get an answer immediately, or if you don't even see your own message appear on the list immediately, don't resend the message. Wait at least 24 hours. The FreeBSD mailer offloads messages to a number of subordinate mailers around the world, and sometimes it can take several hours for the mail to get through. And once it gets through, the one person who might know the answer will probably just have gone to bed in his part of the world. 8. 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 follow up to a question ================================= Often you will want to send in additional information to a question you have already sent. The best way to do this is to reply to your original message. This has three advantages: 1. You include the original message text, so people will know what you're talking about. Don't forget to trim unnecessary text out, though. 2. The text in the subject line stays the same (you did remember to put one in, didn't you?). Many mailers will sort messages by subject. This helps group messages together. 3. The message reference numbers in the header will refer to the previous message. Some mailers, such as mutt, can thread messages, showing the exact relationships between the messages. VI: 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 you understand the question? Very frequently, the person who asks the question is confused or doesn't express himself very well. Even with the best understanding of the system, it's easy to send a reply which doesn't answer the question. This doesn't help: you'll leave the person who submitted the question more frustrated or confused than ever. If nobody else answers, and you're not too sure either, you can always ask for more information. 5. 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?". 6. Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, reply to the sender and to FreeBSD-questions. Many people on the FreeBSD-questions are "lurkers": they learn by reading messages sent and replied to by others. If you take a message which is of general interest off the list, you're depriving these people of their information. Be careful with group replies; lots of people send messages with hundreds of CCs. If this is the case, be sure to trim the Cc: lines appropriately. 7. Include relevant text from the original message. Trim it to the minimum, but don't overdo it. It should still be possible for somebody who didn't read the original message to understand what you're talking about. 8. 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. 9. Put your response in the correct place (after the text to which it replies). It's very difficult to read a thread of responses where each reply comes before the text to which it replies. 10. 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. 11. 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. It contains the following files: drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/ drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/mutt/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 352 Oct 15 15:21 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.mail_aliases -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 9394 Oct 15 15:22 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.muttrc drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 18281 Oct 16 16:52 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.fvwm2rc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 1392 Oct 17 12:54 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-desktop -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 296 Oct 17 12:35 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.xinitrc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 622 Oct 17 13:51 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-rcfiles -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1133 Oct 17 13:00 1997 cfbsd/scripts/Uutry -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1028 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/README drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 18 19:32 1997 cfbsd/docs/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 199111 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.txt Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 189333 Oct 16 14:28 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 188108 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 226439 Oct 16 14:27 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 788 Oct 16 15:01 1997 cfbsd/README -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 248 Oct 17 11:52 1997 cfbsd/errata To extract one of these files, say cfbsd/docs/packages.txt, and assuming you have the CD-ROM mounted as /cdrom, enter: # cd /usr/share/doc # tar xvzf /cdrom/xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz cfbsd/docs/packages.txt See page 209 for more information on using tar. These files are an early version of what is described in the book. I'll put up some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future. Thanks to Frank McCormick for drawing this to my attention. Chapter 8: Setting up X11 _________________________ For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical to distribute errata. You can download the PostScript version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps, or the ASCII version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt. No HTML version is available. Page xxxiv __________ Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add: In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents (sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh). With the exception of sh, they are all in the Ports Collection. I personally use the bash shell. This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard shell. The standard BSD shell is the C shell (csh), which has a fuller- featured descendent tcsh. In particular, the standard installation sets the root user up with a csh. See page 152 (in this errata) for details of how to change the shell. Page 3 General changes Page 11: Reading the handbook _____________________________ The CD-ROM now includes Netscape. Replace the last paragraph on the page and the example on the following page with: If you're running X, you can use a browser like netscape to read the handbook. If you don't have X running yet, use lynx. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. To install them, enter: # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-communicator-4.5.tgz or # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.8.1.1.tgz The numbers after the name (4.5 and 2.8.1.1) may change after this book has been printed. Use ls to list the names if you can't find these particular versions. Note that lynx is not a complete substitute for netscape: since it is text- only, it is not capable of displaying the large majority of web pages correctly. It will suffice for reading most of the handbook, however. Thanks to Stuart Henderson and for drawing this to my attention. Page 12: Printing the handbook ______________________________ The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete. Replace the section starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text: Alternatively, you can print out the handbook. You need to have the documentation sources (/usr/doc) installed on your system. You can find them on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name. To install them, first mount your CD-ROM (see page 175). Then enter: $ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook $ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook you may need to be root for this operation $ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook You have a choice of formats for the output: o ascii will give you plain 7-bit ASCII output, suitable for reading on a character-mode terminal. Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser. o latex will give you LATEX format, suitable for further processing with TEX and LATEX. o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing. o roff will give you output in troff source. You can process this output with nroff or troff, but it's currently not very polished. LATEX output is a better choice if you want to process it further. Once you have decided your format, use make to create the document. For example, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter: $ make FORMATS=ps This creates a file handbook.ps which you can then print to a PostScript printer or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222). Thanks to Bob Beer for drawing this to my attention. Page 45: Preparing floppies for installation _____________________________________________ Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page) with: The floppy set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start with bin. followed by two letters. These other files are all 240640 bytes long, except for the final one which is usually shorter. Use the MS-DOS COPY program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until you've got all the distributions you want packed up in this fashion. Copy each distribution into subdirectory corresponding to the base name--for example, copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on. Page 80 and 81 ______________ In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 5 General changes Page 88: setting up for dumping _______________________________ The example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf. This variable is no longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev. Page 92 _______ At the end of the section How to install a package add the text: Alternatively, you can install packages from the /stand/sysinstall Final Configuration Menu. We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71. When you start sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu by selecting Index, and then selecting Configure. Page 93 _______ Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add: Install ports when installing the system ________________________________________ The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all the ports. You can install it with the base system if you select the Custom distribution and include the ports collection. If you didn't install them at the time, use the following method to install them all (about 40 MB). Make sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter: Page 96 _______ Replace the example at the top of the page with: Instead, do: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # for i in *; do > ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i > done Page 6 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven and Francois Jacques for drawing this to my attention. Page 104 ________ The examples at the bottom of the page and the top of the next page specify the wrong directory (/usr). It should be /usr/X11R6. Replace the examples with: For a full install, choose /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz. If you are using sh, enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # for i in /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz; do # tar xzf $i # done If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % foreach i (/cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz) % tar xzf $i % end For a minimal installation, first choose a server archive corresponding to your VGA board. If table 8-2 on page 103 doesn't give you enough information, check the server man pages, starting on page 1545, which list the VGA chip sets supported by each server. For example, if you have an ET4000 based board you will use the XF86_SVGA server. In this case you would enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here # for i in bin fnts lib xicf; do # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331$i.tgz # done Page 7 Install ports when installing the system If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here % foreach i (bin fnts lib xicf) % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/$i % end Thanks to Manuel Enrique Garcia Cuesta for pointing out this one. 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 Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech 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 Page 9 Install ports when installing the system files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the corresponding individual files. In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environment variables at a global level. Changing your shell ___________________ The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing. See page 148 for details of how to enable it. You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection. You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash, also in the Ports Collection. If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's an example before: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /bin/csh Full Name: Jack Velte Location: Office Phone: Home Phone: You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this to: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash Full Name: Jack Velte Location: On the road Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999 Home Phone: Page 10 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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 11 Install ports when installing the system 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 Chapter 4, Installing FreeBSD, page 72, for more details. 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 device name or the directory name. For example, to unmount the CD-ROM we Page 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: Page 13 Install ports when installing the system 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: 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 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition 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: # 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 15 Install ports when installing the system 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. 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 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 273, ``Building the kernel'' _________________________________ Replace the example with: Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel: # cd ../../compile/FREEBIE # make depend # make The make depend is needed even if the directory has just been created: apart from creating dependency information, it also creates some files needed for the build. Thanks to Mark Ovens for drawing this to my attention. 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 17 Install ports when installing the system 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 3.2 understands is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format as well, and of course that's the default. If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on such a system, you must brand the executable using the program brandelf. For example, to brand the StarOffice program swriter3, you would enter: # brandelf -t linux /usr/local/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3 Thanks to Dan Busarow for bringing this to my attention. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the corresponding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 422 ________ Replace the text above the example with: tcpdump is a program which monitors a network interface and displays selected information which passes through it. It uses the Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf), an optional component of the kernel. It is not included in the GENERIC kernel: see page 257 for information on how to configure it. If you don't configure the Berkeley Packet Filter, you will get a message like 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 19 Install ports when installing the system Page 423 ________ The description at the top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address instead of Ethernet address. In addition, a page number reference is incorrect. Replace the paragraph with: o Line 1 shows an ARP request: system presto is looking for the Ethernet address of wait. It would appear that wait is currently not responding, since there is no reply. o Line 2 is not an IP message at all. tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and the beginning of the packet. We don't consider this kind of request in this book. o Line 3 is a broadcast ntp message. We looked at ntp on page 160. o Line 4 is another attempt by presto to find the IP address of wait. o Line 5 is a broadcast message from bumble on the rwho port, giving information about its current load averages and how long it has been up. See the man page for rwho on page 1167 for more information. o Line 6 is from a TCP connection between port 6000 on freebie and port 1089 on presto. It is sending 384 bytes (with the sequence numbers 536925467 to 536925851; see page 305), and is acknowledging that the last byte it received from presto had the sequence number 325114346. The window size is 17280. o Line 7 is another ARP request. presto is looking for the Ethernet address of freebie. How can that happen? We've just seen that they have a TCP 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 Page 20 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition attention. Page 450: anonymous ftp _______________________ Replace the paragraph starting with Create a user ftp: Create a user ftp, with the anonymous ftp directory as the home directory and the shell /dev/null. Using /dev/null as the shell makes it impossible to log in as user ftp, but does not interfere with the use of anonymous ftp. ftp can be a member of group bin, or you can create a new group ftp by adding the group to /etc/group. See page 138 for more details of adding users, and the man page on page 805 for adding groups. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for drawing this to my attention. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find the following line in sendmail.cf: # "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 Page 21 Install ports when installing the system directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd. Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very important: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%.

I recently installed BSD with the idea of using it as a web server for testing web sites under more realistic conditions. I'm puzzled by how this will work. As far as I can tell, the BSD box seems to recognize the network card, I see the little green light on my hub, but the Windows Network Neighborhood doesn't seem to recognize the BSD box. Sorry if this is dumb question but I'm struggling to make the transition from Windows to BSD and I feel like I've been transported to another country without the benefit of Berlitz.

I'd suggest that you rename the file so it has the file extension ".iso". Most CD-R programs should recognize that extension. Some programs also require you to enter the format data of the CD image -- in that case you should enter the format as being CD-ROM data mode 1, with 2048 bytes per sector.

Are there alternatives? ssh has a feature to "tunnel" arbitrary ports through an ssh connection. In theory this should work with any TCP-based protocol (I don't think it would work with UDP-based protocols, since they're connection-less). NFS can use either UDP or TCP, so in theory it should be possible to tunnel it through ssh. The problem is, however, that ssh/sshd is a "userland" program, while significant parts of the NFS implementation are handled by the kernel. In other words: it would probably require some serious kernel hacking. Another possibility is to use encryption on the IP level. For example, have a look at SKIP: /usr/ports/security/skip. SKIP is completely transparent, and any application can immediately benefit from it without modification. Furthermore, it is state-less, just like NFS. (Disclaimer: I haven't tried to do NFS over SKIP myself. But it sounds like it's what you're looking for.)

For one thing, the root partition cannot be a vinum volume. You need do a minimum install to a "regular" partition to at least bootstrap the machine. -- Crist J.

Installing FreeBSD on 486-computer (VLB/ISA motherboard, 32M RAM, IDE HDD) with "Diamond Viper VLB" card I encountered strange difficulties configuring XServer. First, while making installation I trie to run the graphical utility XF86Setup and the system die, I see only a white rectangle on the screen. By the way, the same happens when I try to use VGA16-server. Further, I launch the text utility xf86config which asks, after usual questions, the type of the video card and propose to use the P9000-server, and this is quite reasonable. But when I try to start XServer I see black screen and, as it seems to me, the system does not try to launch KDE. Though, in contrast to the situation described above, server respond properly to Ctrl-Alt-Del. Generally, is it possible to run SVGA-server (as I do on a Pentium machine with Viper-550) with such a video card using some "generic" device? Note that earlier I had no troubles with my Viper running Windows, though FreeBSD is much more appropriate to this machine. I would be much obliged if you help me understand how to overcome this problem. Sincerely, Alexander Prikhod'ko.

As far as what I can see, there's linux drivers for it on some sites (www.3dfxgamers.com) and apparently with Xfree86 3.3.6 it'll be included. I can't see any mention of XFree86 3.3.6 on www.xfree86.org under the "releases" sections. Is anyone using 1 of these cards on X? I'm about to install a 3.3 system, and have a Voodoo3 2000 and would like to get it working properly and with Mesa.

John is commenting on the 1.68 sec cpu time required to write 128 MB. Isn't this just a normal result of IDE vs scsi?

Self admited hack pci_ide.c prints out the "adding disks to controller 4: 4 5 6 7" message, then later wdc2 not found at 0xd800 - 0xdfff wdc3 not found at 0xd000 - 0xd7fff wdc4 not found at 0x0 The hex is approx. I've tried a few different combinations fo things in the kernel config. The motherboard has wdc0 and wdc1, they work, the card I guess should be wdc2 and wdc3, but the pci scan thing picks "controller 4" (and I wonder, is this wdc4, wdc5, wdc?, or a isa number??) Nothing works. Any attempts to use /dev/wdx or /dev/rwdx for x other than 0 or 1, like with cat or fdisk or mount reports "device not configured". This really sucks. The card is working right now under NT4.. (an Ultra66 card was flakey). There's a TODO comment at the top of wd.c about it not supporting extended partitions. Is this actually true? (So much for having the source, it's unreadable..) It's tempting to try Linux, but I really like the idea of one distribution and the ports system.. Other less pressing concerns: How do I configure the boot manager? Do I edit the table in the source and rebuild it? I'm pretty sure I'll be able to configure the NT loader to boot FreeBSD, since I got it to boot Linux years ago. Once I pick a desktop in sysinstall, how do I switch? I think I figured this out, by editing ~/.xinitrc and ~/.xsession to be one of afterstep & gnome-session or enlightment & gnome-session or startkde but it's certainly something that could be improved. Also, anyone every try running the shell script xf86config instead of the graphical one from sysinstall? Upon exist, the arrow don't work and even space and return seem problematic. - Jay To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Nov 6 5:47:48 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from blackhelicopters.org (geburah.blackhelicopters.org [209.69.178.18]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A87EB14D6F for ; Sat, 6 Nov 1999 05:47:46 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mwlucas@blackhelicopters.org) Received: (from mwlucas@localhost) by blackhelicopters.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) id IAA38428; Sat, 6 Nov 1999 08:47:44 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from mwlucas) From: Michael Lucas Message-Id: <199911061347.IAA38428@blackhelicopters.org> Subject: Re: NT - FredBSD Networking Question In-Reply-To: <000e01bf27fa$e9e99590$dfdfdfdf@mojomatic> from Bob Cohen at "Nov 5, 1999 9: 2: 0 pm" To: bcohen@bpecreative.com Date: Sat, 6 Nov 1999 08:47:44 -0500 (EST) Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL43 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Bob, The problem here is, NT's "network neighborhood" is a Windows-specific thing. Open up a command line, and try "ping". If you want to be able to see the BSD box in Network Neighborhood, you need to use samba (/usr/ports/net/samba). If you're feeling truly lost about BSD, pick up a basic systems administration manual. I recommend "Essential Systems Administration" from O'Reilley. Others would recommend their own favorites, of course. It's very different, but once you're familiar with it, it's far more powerful.

No, it won't normally. You should still be able to access it via your web browser by going to http://192.168.1.1/ (or whatever IP you used on the BSD box, or its name if you have DNS running) to test your websites, and telneting to it should still be fine. (Although I recommend you get a different telnet program since the windows Telnet program is rather crap. I use Tera Term Pro with the ttssh extension on the rare occasions I use a Windows PC.) If you do want it to show up, investigate Samba in the ports collection. (Go to http://www.freebsd.org/ports/, choose "Net" category, and you should be able to download the pre-compiled package from there.) The BSD box should then show up, and you can access parts of its filesystem as you would a shared folder on another Windows PC. You'll need to configure a few things for Samba to work, of course, but it isn't too painful. -- Ben Smithurst | PGP: 0x99392F7D ben@scientia.demon.co.uk | key available from keyservers and | ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Nov 6 6:30:56 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from earth.wnm.net (earth.wnm.net [208.246.240.243]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A750714D2B for ; Sat, 6 Nov 1999 06:30:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from alex@wnm.net) Received: from localhost (alex@localhost) by earth.wnm.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id IAA12934; Sat, 6 Nov 1999 08:30:44 -0600 (CST) Date: Sat, 6 Nov 1999 08:30:43 -0600 (CST) From: Alex Charalabidis To: "Istvan A.

Dave I would like to echo Christopher Michaels comment and add a few thoughts. Definitely the most important thing is to have the wiring done and having RJ-45 on each room is definitely a good suggestion. I would say at least two Jacks and in any room that you expect to have the most computers 4 jacks. Alternatively you could have 2 jacks everywhere and as needed put Hubs. The Hub Vs Switch debate is all about price. One possible approach would be to start with a Hub and after you have determined if it enough then decide for the switch. The difference can be VERY notiable in terms of cost. Perhaps a 100Mb hub may be a good intermediate point between price and performance. In terms of the computer for FreeBSD due look at the list, but most IDE HDs will work and for the video card you could look at the list for Xfree since that is what needs to support it's graphic mode. One suggestion I have in regards to this is to try and play with FreeBSD now or to get a cheap (i.e. less than $100) computer to play. Like any other OS FreeBSD takes some time to learn. In particular you want to play with Samba which is what will allow your windows computers to see FreeBSD as a server. If you are going to connect to the net by modem best to buy it external. Best of luck.

And I have found SecureCRT to be an excellent program, unfortunately I don't think it's available outside the U.S., since the RSA encryption engine is subject to export controls. Just another example of the Federal government making sure American companies won't be supplying products to the global economy...

The idea is that you just get the differences between the current ports collection and your version of the ports collection. The amount of data transferred depends on how much has changed in the ports collection since your version.

If you're going to use the whole disk, then just set up a single partition on it. Then use `disklabel -e da0' to just change the fstype from 4.2BSD to vinum for the partitions that you want to give to vinum. disklabel -e will bring up the partition table in a text editor so you can just change it. If you set up a single partition you'll see two in disklabel - a "c" partition and eg. an "e" partition covering the same space. Leave the c partition alone and change the e partition fstype to vinum. -- Kevin Street street@iname.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Nov 6 9:30:31 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.rdc2.on.home.com (ha1.rdc2.on.home.com [24.9.0.15]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4DDA514E97 for ; Sat, 6 Nov 1999 09:30:30 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from street@iname.com) Received: from mired.eh.local ([24.64.136.188]) by mail.rdc2.on.home.com (InterMail v4.01.01.07 201-229-111-110) with ESMTP id <19991106173029.CRJM3040.mail.rdc2.on.home.com@mired.eh.local>; Sat, 6 Nov 1999 09:30:29 -0800 Received: (from kws@localhost) by mired.eh.local (8.9.3/8.9.3) id MAA38449; Sat, 6 Nov 1999 12:30:29 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from kws) To: "Dan O'Connor" Cc: "freebsd-questions" Subject: Re: Mergemaster port broken?

It got removed from the ports tree since it's now part of the base system in -current and -stable. I think it could have been left in the ports since it still might have been useful for people on older releases. -- Kevin Street street@iname.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Nov 6 9:33:40 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from gerpa.ru (gerpa.ru [212.24.32.162]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9C0FA14EB7 for ; Sat, 6 Nov 1999 09:33:25 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from matrix@gerpa.ru) Received: from m1 (956-1785.tsr.ru [195.208.67.132] (may be forged)) by gerpa.ru (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id UAA09174 for ; Sat, 6 Nov 1999 20:42:45 +0300 (MSK) Message-ID: <002401bf287d$48025a40$0100a8c0@m1> From: "Artem Koutchine" To: Subject: VMWare for FreeBSD?

As I Understand FreeBSD has pretty sofisticated Linux emulation, but i just wonder why VMWare cannot be run on FreeBSD? Recetly, i've been considering installing Linux on my workstation because it seems to be really amazing to be able run Windoze in a X11 windows when i really need it. For example, to see how a page looks in MSIE or just run ULead Gif animator and Web razor. Boch is way way way way too bugy, slow and will never be as fast as VMWare because it is platform independent. What other choice do I have?

Try switching to dev and issuing the command MAKEDEV bpf1. This will make bpf0 and bpf1 nodes in your dev tree. Idea number two is to add a couple of more filters, say 4. BSD can chew up filters pretty quickly, depending on what you have installed. You'll need to remake your kernel with a new bpfilter declaration.

You can add modular ssh support to teraterm (http://www.zip.com.au/~roca/ttssh.html) and save yourself some money - the ssh extension is not developed in the US, therefore you're free of export restrictions too. Since teraterm is in itself an excellent terminal program, if the ssh extension works, it's a good choice.

Is this a first time installation of ports or are you just trying to update? If it's a first time installation of the ports tree, then yes they're the same. If not, you are MUCH better off using CVSup - making the tree is slow (see previous threads about Linux able to untarball things faster) due to the way FBSD tries to be smart about making the tree. CVSup will only update the ports tree files that need updating, just like it does when you CVSup the source.

I have set up quotas on my system and I am postive that they are working on the /var drive. My problem is that since mail processing daemons (etc) are run by priveledged users, they will write to the mail file and exceed the quota. I read in one of the faqs on sendmail.org that if i use procmail i should be ok because procmail observers quotas. It tells me to look at the Mlocal line in my sendmail.cf which looks like this : Mlocal, P=/usr/libexec/mail.local, F=lsDFMAw5:/|@qrmn9, S=10/30, R=20/40 T=DNS/RFC822/X-Unix, A=mail -d $u Obviously, there is no procmail in there so i have changed the line to this : Mlocal, P=/usr/libexec/mail.local, F=lsDFMAw5:/|@qrmn9, S=10/30, R=20/40 T=DNS/RFC822/X-Unix, A=/usr/local/bin/procmail -d $u But it still doesn't work, the quotas still get exceeded. I'll be the first to admit that I am no genius when it comes to sendmail or procmail...in fact, i hadn't even heard of procmail until today. If anyone knows what can be done to fix this it would be greatly appreciated.

I did a full install of XFree86, and put it in /usr/local/X11R6. I've now started building gnome, and have successfully, with more effort than I thought necessary, however, built: esound, audiofile, glib, libxml, ORBit, gtk+, imlib. I'm now working on gnome-libs, and struggling with some unresolved externals from libintl (either the prototypes are different and the linker don't like that, or I'm getting in serious trouble for trying to do things in /usr/local/XXXX) is this experience the norm? thanks! marc.

I've got a 20 gig ide drive in it. I'm having difficulties getting FreeBSD booted after installing (3.3-RELEASE). I'm installing from cdrom. This is what my partitions look like: part 1: fat32 (win98 installed - 4 gig) part 2: non-dos (3.5gig) this is where I'm installing FreeBSD part 3: fat32 (12 gig) I manage to finish the installation, and then ask it to install FreeBSD's default boot manager. After this, I get my 2 options when booting, and am told to press F3 to boot FreeBSD. I hear an audible beep when pressing this, and the only key that does anything is F1 (Win98). I've tried installing os-bs and end up with the same. I've tried changing active id tag's too. I've also tried letting it modify the start id automatically upon booting. No matter what, I can't get it to boot my bsd partition :( Any suggestions? Please reply to me personally as I'm not on freebsd-questions.

If you install X from sysinstall or from the ports, it is by default put in /usr/X11R6, NOT /usr/local/X11R6.

Then you probably missed the libraries. If you want to do this from sysinstall: Configure->Distributions->XFree86->Basic->lib and as you move back it will ask you where to install from (CDROM or FTP etc) and you're off.

Of all the things I've been compiling, I've never had a problem with a program not being able to find X11. All the problems have been with my putting all my libs and packages in /usr/local/lib. I've had to fiddle with LD_LIBARARY_PATH, ldconfig, and a few other hellish hacks. I've now successfully built about a third of gnome, but am now having problems with programs trying to link against libgnome.so -- when they try to do so, i get unresolved externals in libgnome, complaining that they can't find routines in from libintl. I only have a static version of the latter. bit of a nightmare. But a good introduction to the world of Un*X libraries, I suppose. marc.

I'd like to run xntpd. I've set up an /etc/ntp.conf file, and now the only problem is that I'm not sure how to add something to "system startup". Do I just go ahead and xntpd & somewhere in my /etc/rc file ?? as a second question, my machine will a. sync time from another server on the net, and b. hopefully serve NTP requests on my LAN. All i need then is the following in my ntp.conf: server aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd ? i didn't see any config options to allow it to act as a server on the LAN in non-broadcast situations. thanks for any insight! marc.

The 675 is basically a router. It's got a 10 meg ethernet port out the back. I has a dhcp server built in, or you can just set your address. USWEST configures that port as 10.0.0.1 (I don't remember the subnet 16 or 24 bit, I think). Any ethernet card will work.

For my Internet connection I use an external isdn-modem connected to sio2 (LavaPort ISA card with a 16650 UART, my kernel is compiled with "flags 0x20000" for sio2). The problem is that if I put "set speed 115200" into my ppp.conf user- ppp does not work. With "set speed 57600" everything seems to work fine. Same problem if I try to talk to the modem with cu. "cu -l /dev/cuaa2 -s 57600" works, while "cu -l /dev/cuaa2 -s 115200" does not. How can I get this to work with the higher speed? The LavaPort-card can handle speeds up to 460800. Also, when using Netscape I get messages like: "/kernel: sio2: 26 more interrupt level overflows" Is this related to the problem above or is Netscape just too much to handle for my old machine?

No it doesn't. It talks about the partition being of type 'vinum,' not slices. From the partition names you used, you don't even have DOS slice tables on the disks. You need to go into the disklabel and change them from type 'BSD4.2' to 'vinum,' # disklabel -r -e da1e Then repeat for each. -- Crist J.

All i > need then is the following in my ntp.conf: Use "server" lines to specify box to use as servers (i.e. to get time information FROM those machines). Use "restrict" lines for everything else (i.e. for machines that will get time information from you) _and_ for the servers. Here is an example ntp.conf that should get you going: driftfile /var/run/ntp.drift server my.favourite.server prefer server the.second.server server yet.another.server restrict default ignore restrict 10.20.0.0 mask 255.255.0.0 nomodify notrust restrict 192.168.42.42 restrict 172.16.47.11 restrict 10.123.8.15 restrict 127.0.0.1 Note that the order of "restrict" lines is important (the first match for a host is used). "restrict default ignore" should always be the first line, as a catch-all for the rest of the world. Any hosts an networks that you serve should be specified with the "nomodify notrust" options. This means that time service will be provided to those hosts and networks, but your machine will not accept any (possibly bogus) time information from them. All restrict lines without any options specify server from which you accept time information. This should be used for trusted time servers only, of course. Also note that localhost (127.0.0.1) must always be specified this way. xntpd doesn't like host names in "restrict" lines, so you have to use IP numbers. (At least this was the case some time ago, maybe this was changed in newer versions of xntpd.)

What does your syslog.conf look like? inetd uses the 'daemon' facility when generating messages. In the default syslog.conf, you will get 'notice' and above messages to /var/log/messages.

IIRC, you have to be able to find the CD at, /pub/FreeBSD/3.3-RELEASE Once your anonymous use logs in. I can't find the exact instructions for this in the docs at the moment. -- Crist J.

I don't think it's possible without providing the linux kernel with its own virtual machine (a la VMWare itself). Linux and the BSD kernel will conflict in various areas over which both want to have control; this starts with virtual memory and procedes with the various device drivers. >This way we basically achive 95% linux compatibility, which How did you calculate the 95%? >make freebsd also a perfect workstation (for now it makes >a perfect server, but linux is better as workstation because >of the support from software companies). This is preposterous argumentation. Most real workstations don't run Linux. Do you consider them to be imperfect as well compared to a Gnu/Linux PC? FreeBSD makes a perfect workstation for me.

'show modem' shows the peak and average, but not the > connection speed. If you don't clock it at connection time, the info is lost. Ppp doesn't know anything specifically about modems and doesn't understand anything in the dial chat. Besides, it's up to the person to turn on the speed reporting, make sure it's reporting the line speed and not the DTR speed, and to make sure they look for a linefeed after the CONNECT so that the speed string isn't lost. All that aside, modems retrain their speed based on the quality of the line. The initial value is going to be wrong after a while and there's no way that I know of to get the modem to say the current line speed. > 2. also, what difference does it make if i include 'delete all' in > ppp.linkup before 'add default HISADDR'?

The ``delete all'' deletes all non-interface routes for the current tun interface. It's not usually necessary.

Yamaha does not provide programming documentation and specs for their soundcards and chips -- they sell it for _big_ money to other companies. I know this because I happened to ask them for the PCI-XG specs not so long ago... This is also the reason why the OSS driver for the PCI-XG costs extra money ($30, as compared to the "normal" OSS software which is just $20). For the above reason, there is no native support in FreeBSD for the PCI-XG (or in any other open-source OS, for that matter). I'm afraid you have to buy OSS, which is supposed to support it, or buy a soundcard from a vendor who is more open-source- friendly.
