If it still is a normal Intel NIC in all aspects and doesn't contain freaky bus set-ups, yes.

I mean, my settings for SGML differ greatly from what I use to produce style(9) compliant C-code. Every indenting feature you could possibly want is in vim.

IIRC vim supports folding now to, or it is at least high on the list.

Part 1 I sent a message about a problem with sendmail: it was unable to identify any user but root of the system it was running on. Kindly, Thomas Uhrfelt answered: >check the alias file (/etc/alias) > >for example if you have a user called jd on your system and his email addr. >is john.doe@mydomain.com, the alias entry would be: > >john.doe: jd Are you ready for part 2 ? Part 2 The problem was not about aliases. You can use an alias for jd if sendmail is supposed to know the user jd. But what if sendmail said that jd is an unknown user? That was the question. I have found that sendmail is unable to identify a user whose name contains capital characters. When I changed my own user name from madG to madg sendmail stopped complaining. Is this a strange behavior that happens on my system only ? bye MDG To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Nov 21 3:38:30 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.hellasnet.gr (mail.hellasnet.gr [212.54.192.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id CE3B314CBA for ; Sun, 21 Nov 1999 03:38:07 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ottof@hellasnet.gr) Received: from q9n7c7 (ppp17-V90-marousi.athe.hellasnet.gr [212.54.198.150]) by mail.hellasnet.gr (8.9.1/8.9.1) with SMTP id NAA20252 for ; Sun, 21 Nov 1999 13:37:07 +0200 (GMT) Message-ID: <002b01bf33b0$3fb747e0$96c636d4@q9n7c7> From: "OTHONAS FLAMBOURAS" To: Subject: drivers...

You could mount the filesystems with noatime, which will also have the effect of making the filesystem a bit faster AFAIK (because when you just read a file which is cached, it's atime won't have to be updated, saving a few fs operations).

In a moment of frustaion I tookoof FreeBSD and reloaded my old Linux system to access my zip and it crashed on me as usual. So I copied what I needed to floppies and went back and reinstalled FreeBSD; recompiled my kernel to what I had before and was stable again. " My problem seems to be when I try to mount or fdisk the Da0-da0s4 I recieve device not configured. Also when I boot it finds it then latter it says error/timeout/5." I have tried to remake the devices and that dosen't work and have read and pursued all the Docs on my machine and Internet and it still dosen't work. Now I may be using MAKEDEV command wrong for I do not use any options but the device name.

Here's something worth mentioning: The port 80 redirect, as well as the SMTP redirect, works, but the others do not. I cannot connect to the IMAP, POP3, webemail (8383) and ftp (8072) servers. Is this a bug with natd/ipfw? Is there some limit to the amount of redirects? The port 80 redirect works, but only to the point of getting to the web server. It will not route properly to the two virtual hosts on that machine. In other words, I have an apache server running on 10.0.0.6, but if I try to access them, I merely get the generic index.html in the server route instead of the appropriate vhost. In addition, I cannot get to any of these outside services from an inside machine. This appears to be a routing issue, but all my routing tables are fine. I've tried sniffing those interfaces and come up empty handed. I'm swiftly running out of options here, and I definately don't want to move all of these servers to the firewall machine. HELP!?

The server will have two nics (still in planning stage) one for inside network (192.168.*.*) and one for outside network (140.211.*.*) Server is running ipfw, and will run natd and dhcp for the internal network.

You are going to make a firewall and want the machines behind the firewall to use "Windows Networking" among themselves? There is nothing special to do. Or do you want machines on both sides of the firewall to be able to do Windoze Networking across the firewall? That's more of a problem and somewhat defeats the whole purpose of having a firewal in the first place. If the firewall is an ipfw/natd box the problem becomes _very_ difficult.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi everybody, I have a big headaches with this 'evil'. I configured a two disk striped volume, but it performs much slower than I expected. The read performance - ~20MB/s is ok, but in writing it's ~4MB/s. Both the separate disks are much faster than the stripped volume, configured onto them. My machine is PII/350MHz with an Intel BX board, 64MB RAM, Intel EtherExpress Pro/100B, Adaptec U2W SCSI controller with IBM DDRS 9.1GB & IBM DNES 9.1GB LVD disks working in LVD mode and a Quantum Fireball SE 4.3BG single ended narrow scsi disk used for 3.3 FreeBSD cvsupped a day ago. I think the SCSI chain is ok (termination, length, etc) I also tried the performance configuring a 'one disk concatenated' volume on the first hard drive, but the result was terrible again (below 50% of the standalone disk performance). I noticed when I write onto the raw vinum device it performs pretty well, whereas the cooked one is good in reading, but very slow in writing. I made so many tests in different ways, so I cannot believe it's related to a configuration mistake. Anyway here's the vinum.cfg: drive d1 device /dev/da1h drive d2 device /dev/da2h volume double plex org striped 256k sd length 8700mb drive d1 sd length 8700mb drive d2 The hardware configuration is very popular, so I hope someone has already solved this problem, if it's related to the hardware.

I suspect that the HDD is well past its "use-by" date, and after you load up any of the 'other' o/s's around, you are going to encounter similar problems (e.g. "No Operating System found" or whatever). I am at a loss to understand why you are so adamant that you "WILL NOT upgrade to a new" hard-disk.

Date: Mon, 22 Nov 1999 00:18:11 +0000 From: Purrcat Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, When I tried to get OpenGL support to compile (see www.freebsd.org/~3d), I stumbled across a problem (?) with pkg_info. The GLX makefile checks if there's a sufficient version of XFree86 installed. pkg_info didn't report XFree86 installed, in spite of the fact that I was running this program from an xterm which should probably mean I did install XFree ;) I've got FreeBSD 3.3 running and installed XFree86 from the installation menu (yeah I know; /real/ people get the source and compile it ;), so my guess is that sysinstall doesn't update the package database after untargzipping XFree86. More precise; I don't think sysinstall updates anything not installed via the "packages" section (as I (and probably many other people) installed XFree via the "Distributions" menu). Could anyone check if I'm mistaken..? I must admit I don't do everything through the sysinstall program and maybe this could have caused the package database to be not correct.

Date: Sun, 21 Nov 1999 17:54:14 PST From: Marc Frajola Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi... When I do a 'mount sys:/usr/home/dir /mnt' from a FreeBSD client to mount a directory on a FreeBSD server (where I think I have NFS server properly enabled on the server), the mount command hangs, no errors or hints about what's wrong. I have also checked that NFS client is enabled on the client (via the rc.conf nfs_client_enable option). I have checked the FAQ, specifically sections on networking and NFS. From the FAQ, I tried using the -P option, which seems to help Suns and a few other vendor types to work with FreeBSD, but I still get the same hang. I have rebooted both the client and server after all config changes had been made, so am pretty sure it's not just an error getting the daemons properly started. I've done tons of NFS with SunOS, Solaris, Network appliance, etc, and am clueless why this isn't working.

FreeBSD uses the boot sector for its default boot manager. So, if you're going the sysinstall route, you do not (nor should you) create a small FreeBSD partition. Instead, when asked at the FDISK prompt, Check [X] your first drive, and select the BootMgr option (default, if I remember correctly). ** CAUTION ** (a.k.a. disclaimer of respondent ignorance): NOTE! I'm not a Linux user, so I'm not the person to ask about whether using this setup with Lilo (the LInux boot LOader) is a good idea. For all I know, it may make your Linux unbootable. IF I AM NOT MISTAKEN.. Lilo lives in an ext2 partition (by itself or with your root fs), and should behave with the FreeBSD boot manager, as the FreeBSD manager simply tries to start an OS on a given drive/partition. Somebody may correct me on this, as I HAVE NOT ever run Linux with FreeBSD. I can't say whether Lilo (partially) populates the boot sector or not, so you're on your own with this one :-) Virtually yours, - Ryan -- Ryan Thompson VP Technical/Accounts ryan@sasknow.com (306) 664-1161 SaskNow Technologies http://www.sasknow.com #106-380 3120 8th Street East Saskatoon, Sask S7H 0W2 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Nov 21 18:20:59 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from implode.root.com (root.com [209.102.106.178]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id AF07014EB1 for ; Sun, 21 Nov 1999 18:20:56 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dg@implode.root.com) Received: from implode.root.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by implode.root.com (8.8.8/8.8.5) with ESMTP id LAA02308; Sun, 21 Nov 1999 11:25:42 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <199911211925.LAA02308@implode.root.com> To: Marc Frajola Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Help - How do I get FreeBSD NFS client to mount FreeBSD server?

It's (fairly) light, robust and works mostly on i386 platform, with an Alpha port and (I think) a PowerPC port - correct me if I'm wrong - or see OpenBSD is for the (ahem) 'paranoid'. If you want a secure OS right out of the box, then OpenBSD is for you. see It supports a couple of hardware platforms including i386 and Sparc. NetBSD has lots of support for 'interesting' hardware - some of it no longer at the 'leading edge' of technology - e.g. MicroVAX II and such - but you require a *BSD O/S for them, otherwise your wife will make you throw that 'junk' out ;') see They are all 'Open Source' - and all are pretty darn stable. All are actively being enhanced and used. And all are loved by their respective groups. To me, they are "horses for courses". If I still had my uVAX-3500, I'd use Net. If I were a bit more paranoid than I am now, I'd use Open. For the moment I'm using Free, as it sits nicely behind the "Bleeding Edge" (a.k.a. Linux ;'), and I presently have a corporate firewall protecting me from my own stupid mistakes ;'} hth, |-| To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Nov 21 20:21:47 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from sasknow.com (h139-142-245-96.ss.fiberone.net [139.142.245.96]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C4E5914F2D for ; Sun, 21 Nov 1999 20:21:22 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from freebsd@sasknow.com) Received: from sasknow.com (ntstn [10.0.0.2]) by sasknow.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id WAA17503; Sun, 21 Nov 1999 22:21:50 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from freebsd@sasknow.com) Message-ID: <3838C598.492EA23A@sasknow.com> Date: Sun, 21 Nov 1999 22:24:56 -0600 From: "Ryan Thompson [FreeBSD]" X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (WinNT; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Allix Primus Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: OpenBSD, NetBSD vs FreeBSD ?

I suggest you follow -advocacy for a while, and maybe start a thread (or follow one) on -chat, lest ye restart the proverbial OS flamewar in -questions :-) The short answer to your question is there IS no "better" BSD, necessarily. Depending on your application, each will have its benefits. Since you are posting this question on a FreeBSD mailing list, you will understandably receive a response biased heavily toward the same. However, most experienced posters here have tried more than one flavour, and may be able to share a few of their experiences. My advice to you would be to test each. I'm replying to -questions in case you don't follow -chat. Please send any replies to this thread there. -- Ryan Thompson VP Technical/Accounts ryan@sasknow.com (306) 664-1161 SaskNow Technologies http://www.sasknow.com #106-380 3120 8th Street East Saskatoon, Sask S7H 0W2 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Nov 21 20:34: 6 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from prserv.net (out1.prserv.net [165.87.194.252]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BF1B114E4E for ; Sun, 21 Nov 1999 20:34:03 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from placej@ibm.net) Received: from ibm.net.

Okay I use both FreeBSD and OpenBSD, why... Because FreeBSD makes a great high-level robust server platform, and OpenBSD makes a rock solid out-of-the box security server, FreeBSD has more ports, OpenBSDs ports tree is growing fashionably, OpenBSD is based on a complete code audit for security, and includes alot of nice features. FreeBSD make a better desktop since there are more applications in its ports tree, Both are developed by a core team. Both are extremely stable. basically OpenBSD is my firewall/proxy and FreeBSD is my Desktop/Server. Both are very clean, and manageable, you can cvs the code for either daily and rebuild your entire system. both run on x86 and Alpha platforms, i believe OpenBSD also runs on a few more. either way bu choice, in preference, i would have to say as a desktop/server platform FreeBSD gets the vote, for Security, definatley OpenBSD. yet FreeBSD is also secure. OpenBSD is just paranoid secure out of the box. Allix Primus wrote: > > I'm new to freebsd and was just wondering what is the difference between > freebsd , netbsd and openbsd ?

The CDs don't include an ssh package because the US government doesn't like people to use strong crypto, and barring the export of it (even when it was imported originally) makes it slightly harder to obtain and use. There's also the RSA patent issue. JDK isn't included because "License doesn't allow distribution with fee". Both can easily be built from the ports collection. -- I've always wanted to be a dilettante, but I've never quite been ready to make the commitment.

I downloaded StarOffice at www.sun.com. I guess what I would like to ask is this then, 1) How well does ApplixWare handle MS Office97 files? 2) Do you know of any plans for Applixware to support Office 2000 formats? 3) How well does Applix share files with StarOffice (I aleady have a few in StarOffice format, although I suppose I could change them to .txt format and use them that way) 4) And this is the biggie.....Does the Applix lisence allow for multiple copies of the software (For example on a laptop and Desktop) with one purchase or would I have to purchase two copies... Regarding question #2, sibce The Applixware we have is a port from the Linux one, does this mean we will have to wait untill Applix gets Office 2000 support 1st or will we be able to work on the source ourself?

I don't know the answer to this question either. I reviewed the product as well as I could and saw no specific mention of licensing except for documentation on the license key generator and the license manager, something that might be informative if Applixware currently used an LM, which it does not. I think this is another question for Applix. > Regarding question #2, sibce The Applixware we have is a port from > the Linux one, does this mean we will have to wait untill Applix > gets Office 2000 support 1st or will we be able to work on the > source ourself? I don't know what you mean by "a port from the linux one" - this is the standard ApplixWare product and it's not tied to Linux any more than it's tied to FreeBSD. If and when Applix gets Office 2000 support, I expect we'll get something newer than 4.42 to sell, same as all their other partners. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Nov 21 22:28:12 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from gratis.grondar.za (gratis.grondar.za [196.7.18.133]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 81FCA14C1A; Sun, 21 Nov 1999 22:28:04 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mark@grondar.za) Received: from grondar.za (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by gratis.grondar.za (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id IAA71819; Mon, 22 Nov 1999 08:27:49 +0200 (SAST) (envelope-from mark@grondar.za) Message-Id: <199911220627.IAA71819@gratis.grondar.za> To: William Woods , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: StarOffice 5 on a SMP system..... or Applixware...

It's not "a port from the Linux one"; Applixware builds for about a dozen or so platforms, and the FreeBSD port has equal status with the rest of them. As I've already stated above, it already has O2k support. -- \\ Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. \\ Mike Smith \\ Tell him he should learn how to fish himself, \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ and he'll hate you for a lifetime. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 22 0:17:34 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from ghost.neuneu.com (19-230.CampusNet.ucl.ac.be [130.104.19.230]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 04DE614D06 for ; Mon, 22 Nov 1999 00:17:19 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from lexchive@iname.com) Received: (qmail 31787 invoked by uid 1000); 22 Nov 1999 08:17:13 -0000 From: lexchive@iname.com Date: Mon, 22 Nov 1999 09:17:13 +0100 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Samba Question Message-ID: <19991122091712.A31752@ghostie.dyndns.org> Reply-To: lexchive@iname.com Mail-Followup-To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG References: <8525682F.005A868B.00@mail.whtz.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0pre3i In-Reply-To: <8525682F.005A868B.00@mail.whtz.com> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Sat, Nov 20, 1999 at 11:28:45AM -0500, courtney@whtz.com wrote: > > > well I have tried the host file, but I can map drives on the Samba server > over the internet from machines that don't have the hosts file in it...how > would I map to the machine via IP - currently I just go to fine-computer > and put in the ip address...but in this case, it dosn't see the Samba > machine...but yet all of my other workstations do.

Is this true? Discussing this gets confusing because what the MS-DOS/Windows world calls a "partition", the BSD world calls a "slice", and the BSD world uses "partition" to mean something roughly equivalent to an MS-DOS logical partition. AFAIK, the problem is that the PC BIOS only knows how to boot from "partitions" (the MS-DOS term) that are in the first 1024 cylinders (not megabytes). So the boot portion of FreeBSD needs to be in the first 1024 cylinders of your drive. Since large drives tend to have large cylinders, this is often not a problem. THE FIRST THING TO DO is find out how many cylinders your system BIOS thinks the hard drive has. That information will be critical to figuring out how to do your installation. Next, try reading http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/multi-os/index.html which will help, although some of the information is out of date. Note that Windows 95 (at least the earlier versions) has to be on the FIRST partition of the disk. That may not be true in recent versions. And, experience has shown that, if possible, you want all of your Windows stuff in one partition (C:); it makes life much simpler. The root BSD partition does not need to be very large; you can hang other partitions from it by using appropriate mount points during the setup, and/or links after installation. Figuring out the details of how you want to arrange your various slices and partitions is a bit challenging if you haven't used FreeBSD before, because you don't know how big things need to be, but the install program gives you some suggestions if you need it to. Use just one Windows "partition" and one FreeBSD "slice" if that's possible, it will keep things simple. With all of this in mind, your general strategy should probably be something like: (assume the total size of your drive is smaller than 2048 cylinders, as viewed by your system BIOS) 1) Set up a Windows partition that takes up half your drive, and is smaller than 1024 cylinders by at least 35 MB or so. Install Windows on this partition. 2) Start the FreeBSD installation. 3) Set up a FreeBSD slice that fits in the remainder of the first 1024 cylinders. Set up another FreeBSD slice on the rest of the drive. 4) In the first FreeBSD slice, create a FreeBSD partition and mount it as / (root). FreeBSD will boot from this. 5) Create the remainder of your FreeBSD partitions in the other slice and finish the installation. 6) After installation, if the root partition isn't big enough, learn how to set up links to move stuff from the root partition to other, bigger, partitions. Adjust this procedure depending on how many cylinders are on the drive. For example, if the first few gigabytes of FreeBSD will fit below cyl 1024, you might want to put several partitions there instead of just one. I'm assuming that you don't need a swap partition below cyl 1024 to boot FreeBSD. I could be wrong... -- Bob +-------------------------------------------------------- | Bob Johnson | bobj@cisi.com +-------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 22 0:47:41 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from flood.ping.uio.no (flood.ping.uio.no [129.240.78.31]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 272AB14CA1; Mon, 22 Nov 1999 00:47:33 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from des@flood.ping.uio.no) Received: (from des@localhost) by flood.ping.uio.no (8.9.3/8.9.3) id JAA68759; Mon, 22 Nov 1999 09:47:29 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from des) To: Gordon Price Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: what happened to install.bat?

I`ve used PQMagic to resize the original partition (was win98 only). Then I`ve moved it, letting some space for the root (I`ve choose 64 M). After installing FreeBSD the disk layout look like: 64 M / 4.5 G win98 rest of the drive rest of the FreeBSD file system. If you don't already have win98 installed, install it first and FreeBSD second (win will replace the FBSD boot manager and you will be able to boot only in windows).

We had to remove the NT security hole from its "gateway" position on the network, for obvious questions. Of course, iin its place wwe installed FreeBSD 3.3-Release. Problem is that, to keep things going, w/o too much effort for local sysadmins, the email still has to be handled by the NT box. Not a big deal. Problem is: address 206.1.1.1, which was the gateway's, is now the FBSD's. Email server was responding to 206.1.1.1 I was trying to use NATd to forward any traffic to ports 25 and 110 to the NT box like this: (called from .../rc.d/nats.sh during boot) natd -n ed1 -redirect_port 192.16.1.100:25 25 natd -n ed1 -redirect_port 192.16.1.100:110 110 Of course all the requirements to run NATd - kernel, etc - were followed. Sometimes, when using trafshow to see what is going on, I can see packets being diverted, but the target machine does not reply at all. Repeating the experience in the lab, w/ 3 computers, I did: server 192.168.1.100 running qpopper server 192.168.1.153 running natd -n ed1 -redirect_port 192.16.1.100:110 110 machine 192.168.1.152 running win95 and Eudora, checking email from 192.168.1.153 Still not working. What is wrong here ? What is the correct way of doing this w/ NATd ? Is there any other way to handle this packet divertion ? Please, include me in your CC list, for faster feedback. Thank you.

OpenBSD is >just paranoid secure out of the box. Just because some people developping it are paranoid doesn't imply that the operating system is secure :). Joke aside, I haven't found any evidence that OpenBSD is any more secure than Free- or NetBSD. On Bugtraq, all three get their shares of the eventual exploit. I think the "OpenBSD the most secure blahblah under the sun" thing is mostly primitive marketing drivel. I don't want to say that it might not be so but until there is some statistical proof it is a rather vaporish claim, imho. There have been bugs found in OpenBSD that were not in NetBSD at the time the latter forked off so nobody can claim perfection for his work. I'm writing this so that new users don't get the idea that OpenBSD is the only secure thing and FreeBSD is somehow insecure. Any operating system is insecure to some degree and OpenBSD and FreeBSD certainly fall into the same equivalence class. Just because someone installs OpenBSD he shouldn't think that all his security concerns will suddenly be blown away. OTOH, if someone choses Net- or FreeBSD he shouldn't fear that he will open a can of worms, security-wise. All three projects do active security auditing and respond to weaknesses rather quick and successfully. mkb To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 22 2:40:36 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from alexander.pentalpha.com.hk (alexander.pentalpha.com.hk [210.176.109.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E515714E0C for ; Mon, 22 Nov 1999 02:40:31 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from danny@pentalpha.com.hk) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by alexander.pentalpha.com.hk (8.9.3/8.9.3) id SAA24708 for ; Mon, 22 Nov 1999 18:39:52 +0800 (CST) (envelope-from danny@pentalpha.com.hk) Received: from jessica.pentalpha.com.hk(10.0.0.8) via SMTP by alexander.pentalpha.com.hk, id smtpdW24706; Mon Nov 22 18:39:51 1999 Received: (from uucp@localhost) by jessica.pentalpha.com.hk (8.9.3/8.9.1) id SAA78759 for ; Mon, 22 Nov 1999 18:39:51 +0800 (CST) Received: from 001.mis.pentalpha.com.hk(10.0.0.168), claiming to be "001.mis.penatlpha.com.hk" via SMTP by jessica.pentalpha.com.hk, id smtpdz78755; Mon Nov 22 18:39:49 1999 Message-ID: <03be01bf34d5$f0b2eec0$a800000a@001.mis.penatlpha.com.hk> From: "Danny Wong" To: Subject: can't allocate llinfo for 255.255.255.0rt Date: Mon, 22 Nov 1999 18:40:05 +0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="big5" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.2106.4 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.2106.4 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I found the following in my FreeBSD 3.3 server log file.

Thanks for the tip. Now I have a running system. Yet I have three questions.. 1) Where can I find the dummynet configurations (BW,delay ....etc) or view them once I set it using; ipfw pipe NN config bw...... command. Ofcourse I can view the ipfw pipe configuations and packet accounts. 2) How can I remove all the configurations applied to a perticular pipe( not the pipe). I used the following command ipfw pipe NN config But it seems to be not working all the time. 3) I included the file name with the fullpath in /etc/rc.conf where I keep all thei pfw rules. But it did not read it during start up. What do you thinfk I may have miss here. I typed the commands line by line like; ipfw add pipe 1 ip from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx to xxx....... ipfw add pipe 2 ip ........... Can some one help me on these. Thanks, mahesh.

If you are developing dstributed or networked applications, maybe. You should really do some reading. Search your favourite technical web site (e.g. http://www.cnet.com/) for Linux and/or FreeBSD and you shouldn't come short of information. > but will it also still support my Hardware i.e Athlon 550,,voodoo3 > 3dfx,,56k modem,,13gigs,, As far as FreeBSD is concerned, the only thing you've mentioned with which you may have problems is the 56k modem. I say this because you haven't described the modem. If it's a WinModem, FreeBSD won't support it. If it's an external modem that plugs into a serial port, you shouldn't have a problem. Otherwise, a brandname would help. As far as your Voodoo3 card is concerned, the release notes for XFree86 release 3.3.5 claim support for it. The reading you do on your favourite technical web site will probably enlighten you as to what XFree86 is. > Will i still be able to run the same programs as i did on windows, Almost certainly not. There may be a few programs that might run under emulation, but for serious development applications, the answer is usually no. Of course, FreeBSD comes with and supports numerous serious development applications. Make no mistake, though. Migrating from Windows will involve a complete paradigm shift and will not lead to increaed productivity overnight. If you could provide more of an idea as to what you're interested in _doing_ with FreeBSD, we'd be in a better position to speculate on whether it'll be a worthwhile migration for you. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.

Dunno, but you could investigate with the quot(1) utility, which displays the disk space occupied by each user. This, of course, assumes that the software isn't giving you a sensible error message. While that's always possible, start by assuming that the error messages are useful. :-) See the quot(1) manual page for more details: man quot > Also whenever i try to su to root on an Eterm i get this error load: > 0.29 cmd: su 298 [ttyin] 0.00u 0.00s 0% 640k.

Anyone know what this > means? Okay, that's two different questions. :-) As far as the [ttyin] issue is concerned, I can't remember how this situation comes into play, but I do know that the bottom line is that your Eterm is configured for a screwy status command. Usually, the status display is produced when you press Ctrl-T. This condition is obviously different in your environment. Try one of these in your .profile: stty status ^T or stty nokerninfo The first tries to reset the status key to the more conventional Ctrl-T. The second disables the printing of status information completely. I must admit, this weirdness seems exclusive to Eterm. As to the garbling of input at a login(1) prompt, it's a known issue. It seems that this behaviour gets tickled when you press keys at unexpected times during the bootstrapping process. At this stage, the only useful advice I can offer is "don't do that". :-) > Also i noticed that when i use ssh2 it calls the ssh1 binary.

It looks to me like you have both ssh2 and ssh installed on your machine. You don't need both, since ssh2 is supposed to be backward compatible with ssh. I'd suggest that you pkg_delete both and install ssh2. This assumes that you _must_ have ssh2. If you don't need ssh2, just use ssh (or even openssh). In this particular case, the higher version number is no assurance of a better product. ;-) Ciao, Sheldon.

Try this: Boot off the floppies as if you were going to do an installation. Choose "Custom" from sysinstall's Main Menu. Choose "Partition" from the Custom Installation menu. Select the drive on which you wish to install the boot blocks. This will take you into the FDISK Partition Editor. Exit the FDISK parition editor without making any changes by pressing "Q". You will now be prompted for a boot manager selection. Presumably, you chose "Standard" or "None" last time. Choose "BootMgr" and hit Enter. You'll now return to the Select Drive(s) menu, where you can select "OK" and press Enter. To exit sysinstall without continuing through the entire installation process, select "Exit" and then "Exit Install". Good luck! Ciao, Sheldon.

You cannot mount them, but you can read the raw video track(s) with tosha (tosha is in the "audio" ports collection), provided that you have a SCSI CD-ROM drive. You can pipe the video data directly into an appropriate MPEG player, for example MpegTV (see www.mpegtv.com).

Thanks..bye Well, you could start by reading http://www.lemis.com/vinum/bugs.html and http://www.lemis.com/vinum/how-to-debug.html. There you will read that you should update Vinum to 3.3-STABLE. Then a few details of what you've done so far would help, for example, what configuration do you have? You suggest that you have had problems setting up your configuration, which may also mean that your configuration is faulty.

You should send your patches to him, preferably as the output of the diff(1) command. he may ask you to file a PR (problem report).

We had to remove the NT security hole from its "gateway" position on the network, for obvious questions. Of course, iin its place wwe installed FreeBSD 3.3-Release. Problem is that, to keep things going, w/o too much effort for local sysadmins, the email still has to be handled by the NT box. Not a big deal. Problem is: address 206.1.1.1, which was the gateway's, is now the FBSD's. Email server was responding to 206.1.1.1 I was trying to use NATd to forward any traffic to ports 25 and 110 to the NT box like this: (called from .../rc.d/nats.sh during boot) natd -n ed1 -redirect_port 192.16.1.100:25 25 natd -n ed1 -redirect_port 192.16.1.100:110 110 Of course all the requirements to run NATd - kernel, etc - were followed. Sometimes, when using trafshow to see what is going on, I can see packets being diverted, but the target machine does not reply at all. Repeating the experience in the lab, w/ 3 computers, I did: server 192.168.1.100 running qpopper server 192.168.1.153 running natd -n ed1 -redirect_port 192.16.1.100:110 110 machine 192.168.1.152 running win95 and Eudora, checking email from 192.168.1.153 Still not working. What is wrong here ? What is the correct way of doing this w/ NATd ? Is there any other way to handle this packet divertion ? Please, include me in your CC list, for faster feedback. Thank you.

I made the obvious mistake of buying the FREEBSD MANUAL at the conferrence and using it to describe how to install my system. I have used install.bat several times in the past on 3.1 and previous versions without problems. Excuse me for reading the book I just paid $70. for. I probably did not make my email clear enough and provoked an out of bounds response from you. I actually did create the 2 floppies (kern & msfboot) and when I rebooted the system with the kern floppy, I got the elf error I spoke of. I was expecting to be querried by the installation to insert the other floppy, and for some reason never actually got to that point. There are several things I could have done wrong. The most obvious thing is thinking that the install was the same as it used to be! My bad! Sometimes I admit that I miss important details, but I have never submitted questions or bugs to you guys so I need to understand the right way to go about it to get results. I have tried submitting questions to XF86 and have never even been dignified with a "bite me". I am a strong believer in you guys hard work and would like to offer all the evangelistic support I can. I am at least half ways competent and obviously just missed something somewhere. Thanks, R.

I tried to answer your question as accurately as possible, but you were very vague and did not give much useful information apart from the version number and a half-remembered error message. The error message in question is typical of a mangled or truncated kernel such as one would get if one had tried to copy boot.flp onto a 1.44 MB floppy, which is a very common error for users not familiar with FreeBSD 3.x (no matter how much experience they have with previous versions), and given the lack of details, I guessed that was your problem. I can't tell you why install.bat is missing - as far as I can determine, it's not part of the OS itself, but something that was added on the CD-ROM to facilitate installation. I can, however, tell you that the error message you got means one of three things: 1) you goofed, and copied boot.flp instead of kern.flp. 2) your copy of kern.flp got mangled somewhere on the way. 3) the floppy you copied kern.flp onto is defective. Make sure none of the above applies. If you still can't install FreeBSD, come back with a detailed description of what you are trying to do and what results and error messages you are getting. And remember, we can't read minds, so if you don't specifically tell us that you did something, we'll assume you didn't.

The boot drive is now UFS, but many of the disks on the system are still ext2fs. I have rebuilt my kernel and can now mount_ext2fs and use the Linux disks nicely. Reads, writes, I've transferred tens of MB back and forth with no problems between ext2fs land and UFS. My problem arises when I try to export one of these drives. I do: mount_ext2fs /dev/da0s1 /d1 and my exports file is a one-liner that looks like /d1 -network 192.168.2 The system is quiet after these commands, and I can still access /d1 locally. If I step over to a client machine (Linux) and mount this disk via NFS, things are still fine. The mounting in the client's fstab is done with (noauto,soft,bg,retrans=1). The bottom falls out when I try to do an ls -l of the exported filesystem from the client. The ls works, I see the server filesystem contents on the client, and then the server's nfsd dies with a fatal error 12. Each of these two services (NFS and ext2fs support) seems to work well independently on this server. Is there a known problem with using them together? I really appreciate any advice. I'm not yet subscribed to this list, so email to my address below would be great. FreeBSD seems like a cool replacement for Caldera.

And one other resource. Since you started on the FreeBSD mailing list(s), do a search through them, this question has been asked before. http://www.freebsd.org/search/#mailinglists Hope this helps point you in the right direction. -Chris > -----Original Message----- > From: Allix Primus [SMTP:alleve@idirect.com] > Sent: Sunday, November 21, 1999 11:08 PM > To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org > Subject: OpenBSD, NetBSD vs FreeBSD ? > > I'm new to freebsd and was just wondering what is the difference between > freebsd , netbsd and openbsd ?

Is this a hardware error, or do I need to reconfigure something? Please CC any responses to , as I don't subscribe to the list. Thanks, Simon Rak $ 'dmesg' Copyright (c) 1992-1998 FreeBSD Inc.

The first thing to do is to ascertain what's going on. For testing device performance, use rawio. For testing filesystem performance, use iozone or bonnie.

Awful. This sounds like he's run into unusual problems. I've discussed this matter with Linux people before; they have some kind of GUI interface to kernel configuration. I don't like that idea, since it requires learning Yet Another Interface, but there may be some advantage in having a configuration file checker. One reason that we don't is because we're trying to get rid of the configuration file altogether. Don't ask what we'll have instead; I don't know. > And inflexible too; I was not able to select a PCMCIA NIC and a > normal NIC [yeah, I was just toying around, but what if I had a > docking station?] without the compile crapping out. That's definitely pilot error. He's obviously talking about a laptop here; maybe he didn't notice the comments about pccard support. > And the recommended FP stuff ['use GNU'] caused a kernel panic when > I rebooted. I don't know what he's talking about here. First, he shouldn't need an FP emulator unless he's running a really old machine. Secondly, the GNU FP emulator doesn't cause panics. > The docs seem more sparse for BSD --no NAG, so LPG, no SAG-- but > maybe I just never poked around enough. Well, I suppose we don't have them.

FWIW, I've been doing some work with RedHat Linux lately. To use your friend's words, I like FreeBSD better. FreeBSD seems more flexible and seems to be a general unix with enhancements --like vim is to vi-- whereas Linux is quirkly. For some reason, FreeBSD never seemed to have many 'quirks' to me [relative to other unixes that is] -- everything is straightforward, and it will act however you expect it to. The real answer is in the last phrase, of course: "however you expect it to". Your friend is used to Linux, and he is comfortable with it. FreeBSD does some things differently. That causes problems with FreeBSD for your friend, and problems with Linux for me. [Disclaimer: Don't take my statements above as being a criticism of Linux. They're an explanation for why people have difficulties with other systems once they're comfortable with one]. > Of course I like BSD better than SysV [another factor influencing by > Solaris views], but the SysV init stuff is quite nice.... I wouldn't have thought that the System V init stuff would be that important. We have discussed it several times, and we have implemented some of it, but the general feeling is that it's not flexible enough. > Any thoughts on his kernel issues? Much the same as many people who post here: if you have problems, please describe in sufficient detail that we have some chance of addressing them. Obviously these are not typical problems. > Those seem to be the only ones that are major issues here. Is > FreeBSD 'quirky' ? As others have commented, that depends on your interpretation of 'quirk'. > And what advantages/disadvantages does FreeBSD kernel configuration > have compared to Linux ? The FreeBSD configuration system is more flexible. It does, admittedly, offer you the chance to shoot yourself in the foot. It's like the difference between cutting wood with a handsaw or with a chainsaw. You can't hurt yourself nearly as much with a handsaw.

It makes more sense to track -security, -stable and -cvs and only upgrade when: a) you _really_ need some feature that's been introduced b) you _really_ need some bugfix that's been applied c) security issues.

Your system has been up for 4 days, so that's not unreasonable. Keep in mind that swap usage is not a bad thing! It's simply moving unused blocks of memory to disk. What IS bad is constant swap usage (thrashing). Run 'vmstat 1' and watch the 'pi' and 'po' columns.

I believe it was stated that IBM did the audit since they recently acquired Whistle Interjet and had to perform the certification. However, on another freebsd mailing list, I saw that 3.3 contains Y2K related patches. Does someone have the definitive answer? I looked at the Y2K page on www.freebsd.org but couldn't find any mention of patches introduced in 3.3.

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 fooling around with vinum which I have set up in a raid 5 configuration under FreeBSD 3.3-STABLE The trouble is that my machine keeps locking up under heavy use. If I try and "make world" it dies about 15-60 seconds into it with a page fault as well as trying to ftp over large files and somtimems while trying to build kernels and somtimes vinum just stops responding. After several page faults and fsck's on reboot I will loose an entire drvie. It is marked as "stale"m by vinum and more than once has lost its disklabel. I am now using vinum striping and have been hamering on the drive for days now without fault (doing up to 20 large tar balls at the same time as well as make world and pulling over 40 gigs of data through NFS) but I would like to use vinum raid 5 if possable. I have read the info at http://www.lemis.com/vinum/bugs.html and it describes similar problems with raid 5 and makes a referance to systems running "soft updates" what exactly are soft updates and how do I tell if I am running them and do I need to? Any help or feed back would be greatly apreciated. Thanks in advance Richard Puga puga@mauibuilt.com Below is the latest vinum config I have tried.

I went to the software shop with intentions to purchase the latest version of Freebsd but they have this whole area dedicated to Linux with books etc. But no Freebsd I went to yet another. The store use to have many copies of Greg Lehney's book now all they have is all Linux books. The article in "PC World" last month (in Australia) talks about "Operating systems head to head" yet the article mentions Windows 2000, OPen Linux, Redhat Linux but no Freebsd. The hype is everywhere for Linux. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 22 14:14:57 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from www.geocrawler.com (sourceforge.net [209.81.8.17]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7307A14CC1 for ; Mon, 22 Nov 1999 14:14:51 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from nobody@www.geocrawler.com) Received: (from nobody@localhost) by www.geocrawler.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id OAA11388; Mon, 22 Nov 1999 14:13:08 -0800 Date: Mon, 22 Nov 1999 14:13:08 -0800 Message-Id: <199911222213.OAA11388@www.geocrawler.com> To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: KLD question?

The idea was to have a "jailed" user bla, who should have an world readable public_html. Now, the default permission for /home, as described at http://www.eq.net and in chrsh.c, is 750. I changed this to 755 in chrsh.c and this works nicely. (Surprise, surprise, compiling worked without the complete sources..) Now I'd like to know two things: How "unsecure" has the system become by this change ? Or doesn't this matter at all, as long as /home isnt world writable ? Is there any way to make the FBSD ftpd accept passwordless accounts ? My system is 3.1, the standard CD version...

You can get by with only one partition (and I often do), but you also need swap space. Theoretically you could swap to a file (with some juggling), but performance is terrible and I can't see any reason to want to do so.

Sure. But that's PC World ;') I saw, and read, the article. For what it was trying to do, I think it was reasonably done. They didn't mention a whole heap of Linux Distributions in their review - I'm sure there are a heap of Linux people bagging PCW for not including their favourite distro. Remember, the article also mentioned Win98 and BeOS in the comparison. > > The hype is everywhere for Linux. > But *we* can leverage off that hype! As many here have stated - it's not an "us" (*BSD) against "them" (*Linux) - it's "US" (Open Source Unix and clones) against "THEM" ('The company from Redmond'). If Linux is leading the way, and getting the hype, does it _really_ matter? A good thing about foot-soldiers leading the way, is that they often catch all the lead ;') :') Yes, we all agree that *BSD are better Operating Systems - but, Linux is such a quantum leap forward from where the people are coming from, that sometimes they don't _need_ to go the extra step to *BSD. *But*, if and when they do eventually decide that they need something "better", we are still here. Perhaps I should join the '-advocacy' mail list ;') All the above are my opinions, which can (and will) change :') Best regards, |-| To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 22 14:44:10 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from vcnet.com (mail.vcnet.com [209.239.239.15]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id F164214CC8 for ; Mon, 22 Nov 1999 14:44:05 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jpr@vcnet.com) Received: (qmail 51888 invoked from network); 22 Nov 1999 22:43:03 -0000 Received: from joff.vc.net (HELO ?209.239.239.22?)

If you mean create one big / filesystem and install everything into that, you can do that to but it's not recommended. - At least if your /usr filesystem gives up you can still boot single user and try to fix it ;) Ken Ken Wills kenwills@mailbag.com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

(fwd) 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 This has been a problem that has been around ever since I began using the -CURRENT tree.. actually, shortly after on a cvsup.. Anyhoo, I have had the problem throughout multiple installworlds/kernel builds, etc.. The problem is mainly that sscape_mss on my Ensoniq Soundscape (original) skips when playing mp3s and other things.. I get a lot of static,a nd the longer it plays, the more it happens.. This does not happen in any other OS and it did not happen in 3.x either.. .. I'm thinking that maybe there is a memory leak in the driver or something.. because it takes time to take effect, it is not immediate, but definitely a bug.. If anyone has this problem or would like to help me with it.. please do :).. I am pretty sure this is a bug, but if it isn't, i'll do whatever I have to do to fix it, it's quite annoying :-).. If this is a bug, please fix it soon, no matter how trivial sound might seem to some of the people on this list.. Thanks in advance :) Below is dmesg output..

I've directed your question to the freebsd-questions newsgroup, where you should have sent it in the first place. Second, they will be much better able to help you if you can provide some details about that a DOMEX 3194u card is. Does it have any identifiable chipsets on it?

Your lpd daemon isn't running. You can start this by hand by starting "lpd" as root; or tweaking /etc/rc.conf so that it'll come up on startup.

Unfortunately this app was written for Linux. It compiled fine on my FreeBSD box. Everyone says 'where are the users, why dont we have more'. Well, I am not a programmer. I took a Korn Shell programming class way back when in college. I really do not want to be a programmer. I dont mind scripting and I have no problem reading doc after doc to get something to work. Just please, dont make me program! Anyway, this app is at ftp://ftp.compsoc.net/pub/users/steve/midentd/midentd-proxy-0.22.tar.gz. As I said earlier, it compiled fine. However when I plug it into inetd.conf and I have an internal machine try to send ident info I get this on the BSD box: in.midentd[336]: Can't open /proc/net/tcp : No such file or directory I have been told that the proc structure is very different between FreeBSD and Linux and this app would not be an easy port. First off, what is the 'proc structure'? What makes an app such as this more or less difficult over another to port? Secondly, anyone up for the challenge? I really could use something like this.

If 4.x follows the pattern of 3.x then shortly after the 4.0 release there will be a branch which will become 4-STABLE and the head of the tree (-current) will become 5.0. I'd point you to /usr/share/misc/bsd-family/tree, but it's woefully out of date in -stable. Since it's not version dependent, I wonder if it's possible to slide the branch tags (i.e. RELENG_3) forward automagicaly. As it stands, 3.3 doesn't know about 3.2 or 3.3.

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 O! wise FreeBSD gurus! I ask for your advice... I have a FreeBSD 3.3 system in a Pentium computer and an old 486 computer that I want to make a diskless system. I found that in directory: /usr/src/sys/i386/boot/netboot there is a way of building "nb3c509.com" program. This program is used to emulate the "boot" chip for my 3c509 card. It seems to work fine. It can get the "freebsd.xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" file containing the parameters to download the kernel image. It works ok and tries to download the image. Nevertheless it halts displaying a message saying: kernel: Bad executable format! (or something like that). FreeBSD 3.3 uses ELF format and previous versions (2.x.y) use AOUT format. According to my believes, it seems that there is a function (or macro) called "N_BADMAG" that tests the kernel file type, but I could not find it in the source files. Trying to overcome this problem, I forced the test, but "elf" image did not work. Is there a way of building "nb3c509.com" accepting ELF format ? == ===== = === == ======== ============= ========= === ====== = Do I have to create an AOUT kernel image? will it work? it seems to works... Now, can you tell me which "/etc/rc.*" configuration scripts are executed in the booting process? what file systems do they try to mount? what is a "mfs" ? (memory file system? a virtual disk?) My computer gets frozen because of some kind of problem while booting. it seems to be mounting several file systems in a "mfs" while it starts. Documentation about diskless installation is *very* old. Can you HEEEELLLLPPPP me?

Didn't know that. I thought ports were add-on packages, and the system stuff came from /usr/src. Learn something new everyday.

Also, the plan is that it should one day be possible (one day) to use /boot/ loader (which is an a.out image) and have it pull the kernel and modules down via tftp or minimal NFS or something. That of course requires real-mode network card drivers, or Intel's PXE (preboot execution environment) to catch on.

I have a server running FreeBSD, and two other headless machines (one is an old Mac running NetBSD/mac68k and the other is a Quake server running FreeBSD). Since I don't have monitors for these machines, I'd like to set up serial consoles on them and run them to the FreeBSD server. But... I don't really want to have to login to use them. What I'd like, is to add two more virtual consoles to my kernel, and have the serial consoles of the other two machines show up there (ie. so I could use say Alt-F5 and Alt-F6 to access their consoles). It would act similar to a keyboard/monitor multiplexer. Is there a way I can set up my /etc/ttys file to do this? Basically, just redirect all input/output on a given virtual console to/from a given serial port. Has anyone done this, or have any ideas how I could go about setting it up? I hope it's clear what I'm trying to do...

NAG is the ``network administrator's guide'' and the information it contains can be applied, apart from linux that is, to several other unix and unix-like systems. LPG is the ``linux programmer's guide,'' with documentation on application program building, which with the usual minor exception of a very linux-specific thing, applies to *BSD like a charm too. SAG is the ``system administrator's guide.'' A document that described common tasks a sys-admin will have to go through. Useful stuff, and lots of it are handy for *BSD as well. Now, the funny part is that *BSD actually comes with a similar, probably not as up to date, but altogether extremely useful set of similar texts too. They are located in /usr/share/doc/{smm,psd,usd} and I have to admit I had copied all of them on every Linux installation I ever made, before I got the real thing ;) Since they are right there, waiting to be read, but they somehow failed to be noticed by our friend, one can not help wondering if a proper mention in the handbook or the faq would be any useful.

Of course it is possible. FreeBSD does not mind at all if you prefer to have a single label in your only FreeBSD slice, or if you have a lot of labels in various slices for that matter. If it is easier for you to go through the installation that way, then you're welcome to do so. However, do read the reasons behind the recommended splitting of your slice in labels, from your closest available handbook. They do have some pretty good reasons for recommending this organization of your disks :) Ciao. -- Giorgos Keramidas, "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

I would really prefer it written like: if ((buffer = malloc(BUF_SIZE*sizeof(char))) == NULL) err(0, "whoops! memory exchausted"); > while(count = read(sock_id,buffer,BUF_SIZE)) { The read() system call can return a negative number too, in case of failure, which will pass your while() test, and have the for loop that follows it barf on unread and probably broken data.

The main script is /etc/rc which calls the other scripts. Normally it tries to mount the filesystems listed in /etc/fstab. > what is a "mfs" ? (memory file system? a virtual disk?) Yes, memory filesystem. > My computer gets frozen because of some kind of problem while booting. > it seems to be mounting several file systems in a "mfs" while it > starts. Does it happen during the diskless boot ? A good way of finding out which command is running now is pressing Control+T. And Control+C may be used to interrupt the current command if it seems to hang by unknown reason. I think that to use mfs a large enough amount of swap space must be configured. Otherwise I don't know what would happen when it gets out of memory but certainly nothing good. And if the swap space is configured over NFS then swapping is very slow. > Documentation about diskless installation is *very* old. I guess I was about the last one who touched it around '95. I can't remember any use of mfs in the netboot. I ran it with both root filesystem and swap on NFS and it ran although very slowly. Also I remember that I had very little memory (2MB to 4MB) on the diskless machines and the boot worked VERY slowly even on the 4MB machines until I cut the rc script to the very basics. -SB To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Nov 22 19:36:57 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from helium.clari.net.au (helium.clari.net.au [203.8.14.114]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 61D9515044 for ; Mon, 22 Nov 1999 19:36:43 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from danny@clari.net.au) Received: from localhost (danny@localhost) by helium.clari.net.au (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id OAA12000 for ; Tue, 23 Nov 1999 14:36:33 +1100 (EST) (envelope-from danny@clari.net.au) X-Authentication-Warning: helium.clari.net.au: danny owned process doing -bs Date: Tue, 23 Nov 1999 14:36:32 +1100 (EST) From: "Daniel O'Callaghan" To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: ISDN adapter for Australia 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 Does anyone have details of where in Australia I can get a PC card ISDN TA which is supported by FreeBSD?

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, The XFree86 port is marked as broken... bummer.It seemed to build fine for me (recent stable), so I'm wondering just how broken it really is (and if it should be marked as broken - perhaps a warning instead?). I had a hard drive go bad on me, so I went through the install process for the first time in a long time. The fact that the port was marked as broken discouraged me at first and I began to wonder why this is not available in package form - installing it as part of the base install is not the same as the port as many dependent packages are concerned. Having it in package form would be a good solution when installing from ports is undesireable or impossible for any reason (and it's easier to manage than the base install). Or am I missing something really huge?

Hello, I have a couple of stupid questions for you, and I do appreciate you helping me/all of us up to this point. This is my config file: drive a device /dev/da0h drive b device /dev/da1h drive c device /dev/da2h drive d device /dev/da3h volume raid5 plex org raid5 512k sd length 22129m drive a sd length 22129m drive b sd length 22129m drive c sd length 22129m drive d Everything seems to be working fine except for the reboots every once and a while. Also, you said update vinum to 3.3-STABLE. Where should I get that from? ftp.lemis.com/pub/vinum does not have the 3.3-stable version as far as I can see.

It has many advantages over linux, but one major disadvantage, the FreeBSD community. In one month with linux I basically learned everything off of newsgroups, mailing lists, and mainly irc. With FreeBSD in one month, i'm basically trapped. The mailing lists and newsgroups are ok, but the irc channels are reluctant to help anyone. After using it for a month I can see why it isn't as popular.

A: Due to the manner in which FreeBSD gets the memory size from the BIOS, it can only detect 16 bits worth of Kbytes in size (65535 Kbytes = 64MB) (************ or less... some BIOSes peg the memory size to 16M ***********). If you have more than 64MB, FreeBSD will attempt to detect it; however, the attempt may fail. To work around this problem, you need to use the kernel option specified below. There is a way to get complete memory information from the BIOS, but we don't have room in the bootblocks to do it. Someday when lack of room in the bootblocks is fixed, we'll use the extended BIOS functions to get the full memory information...but for now we're stuck with the kernel option. options "MAXMEM=" Where n is your memory in Kilobytes.

You can try controller pnp0 device pcm0 in the kernel and do MAKEDEV snd1 (That's snd1 not snd0). For me this worked for SB16 ViBRA16X, ViBRA16C and SB PCI128 with es1370 chip. man pcm is also useful. Good luck, Karel.

Actually, the .logout file just works fine for users using tcsh or csh (these shells reads the .logout file before exiting) but It does not work for other kind of shells like sh or bash :-( That is why I am looking a more generic solution that not depends on the shell.

Then I installed Freebsd-3.3 via ftp on the primary partiton of the second HD. However I can't boot into Freebsd,unless I make the second HD(installed with FreeBSD) be the only HD on my computer. and when I want to use Windows 98 or Linux,I have to fix the IBM HD onto my computer. It's so troublesome. Is anybody could help me?

NATD now has me sumped. I am trying to convince my wife and talk my manager into allowing me to replace the company provided analog phone line with Road Runner. Before = I can comfortably do that, I want to put up a firewall/NATD machine. In o= ther words, protect my infant home network. Before someone says something, all of the hardware and networks described= do not leave my den. I'm using the 24.0.0.0 network because I know Time War= ner uses it in this area and I want to simulate the production environment. Test environment: I have my initial FreeBSD machine (called Upstream) simulating the road = Runner network (address 24.0.0.1), connected via a 10base-T crossover cable to my firewall/NATD machine, called Cerberus, which has DHCPC runni= ng on the ep0 interface. Upstream is running DHCPS and correctly assigns 24.0.0.11 as the IP address. Pings in both directions work as expected. On the 'inside' of my firewall I have two 10Base-2 segments. 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.224 (ep1) and 192.168.0.32/255.255.255.224 (ep2).= The ep1 and ep2 interfaces are set up for DHCPS. Both segments assign addresses as expected and pings in both directions work as expected. (I = can only test with my OS/2 Warp V4 laptop due to lack of PCs. In other words= , I cannot ping from an address on ep1 to an address on ep2.) For the rest o= f this example I will use 192.168.0.11 as the laptop address. =46rom my laptop I can ping 192.168.0.1 (Cerberus' ep1) and I can ping 24.0.0.11 (Cerberus' DHCP assigned ep0 address.) I cannot ping 'Upstream= ' unless I manually add a route to 192.168.0.0 using 24.0.0.11 as the next = hop. Once I manually add the route, pings work in both directions. All of this is done with NATD active and the firewall set to 'open'. The problem: All the pings are rejected with the firewall set to 'simple'. I already = know I have rules that I have to work on. My goal right now is to get the NAT= D code working. Based on my work to date, it appears that NATD is not chan= ging the IP addresses. (e.g. Having to manually add the 192.160.0.0 route.) I have reviewed IP aliasing in V3 of The Complete FreeBSD and the NATD ma= n page. I also searched the web site and I didn't find anything that helpe= d me. No errors appear in /var/log/messages and /etc/alias.log is empty. When = I issue natd -verbose -config /etc/natd.conf from root's command line, noth= ing is displayed. When I allow the rc scripts to bring the machine up, somet= hing flashes by that looks like it might be command syntax (similar to the response you get sometimes when you mumblefinger a command line parm.) I= t goes by too fast to read. Again, nothing appears in the logs that I can find. I'm attaching what I believe to be all the associated files. Any help would be appreciated. Cheers...

Well, maybe start with Alberta. As I say, check out the OpenBSD population. You could start a BSD group: a number of the user groups aren't limited to FreeBSD.

Well, the idea is that it is much more secure to compile and test programs as unprivileged user. This is not much of an issue with official ports but it is a good security measure with programs you download from the Net. The other thing (even more important if you ask me) is that I just don't feel comfortable spending too much time in root account. I have a different level of concentration while I'm there and I don't want to lose it by long editing, docs reading etc. root sessions. (Of course, you don't give write access to /usr/ports to everybody but only to, say, people who have root password anyway.) -- ------------------------------------------------------------- Kresimir Kumericki kkumer@phy.hr http://www.phy.hr/~kkumer/ Theoretical Physics Department, University of Zagreb, Croatia ------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Nov 23 7:16:44 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from smtp.mail.yahoo.com (smtp.mail.yahoo.com [128.11.68.32]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 84B8D150F4 for ; Tue, 23 Nov 1999 07:16:28 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kenwills_lists@yahoo.com) Received: from msn-1-109.x2.binc.net (HELO kpw) (198.70.31.109) by smtp.mail.yahoo.com with SMTP; 23 Nov 1999 07:15:04 -0800 X-Apparently-From: Message-ID: <002901bf35c5$cc92b7a0$0cc812ac@gfccc.int> Reply-To: "Ken Wills" From: "Ken Wills" To: "Stan Brown" , "Free BSD Questions list" References: <199911211810.KAA07964@netcom.com> Subject: Re: Sendmail config help, please second request Date: Tue, 23 Nov 1999 09:16:50 -0600 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2014.211 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2014.211 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG From: Stan Brown Subject: Sendmail config help, please second request I'm no sendmail guru, but here goes.... > Here are some details: > > 1.

The CD now boots. In fact the older version of the CD boots also. Problem solved. Just wierd that FBSD wouldn't boot, whereas Win98 and Redhat 6.1 would. Surely some minor problem with the CD, still?

From: "Julian C.

The drive's only purpose is to play CDs, and as such, I compiled the cdplay port. However, what happens is that if a CD is inserted, and I stop the CD and eject it while cdplay is running (but stopped), I get the message "acd0: read_toc timeout" ad infinitum on the console and in /var/log/messages, until I kill cdplay. Then, a few second later, I see in /var/log/messages, some message about the file system table being full. Any clues or workarounds? - Julian -- Julian C.

We have used 2.2.8 to build a telecom application and have had great success deploying other telecom applications on 2.2.8 until now. We are using NFS to distribute binaries and config files to others machines so that we can achieve availability. Here's our problem: I have two machines one acting as a server and the other as a client. The processes are started as follows NFS Server (king-n1) mountd nfsd -u -t 10 rpc.statd NFS Client (king-c1) mount_nfs -T -w 1024 king-n1:/u /u Both machines are Pentium II 450 mhz with 512 megs of ram and 1024 megs of swap. We use an Intel Ethernet Express Pro 100 cards with the fxp0 driver. I turned on debug for the fxp0 driver and see nothing out of the ordinary. Please note that king-n1 is a dual homed. That is why we use the -T option. Otherwise, we can not use NFS to the virtual ip address without installing the NFS_Security_Cookie workaround. Since the nfs_security_cookie workaround has not been tested on 2.2.8, we chose to use the -T option (odd but it allows us to mount a directory from a virtual ip address instead of the real ip address). It is interesting to note that this hang still occurs whether or not we use the real ip address or a virtual ip address. The problem is that under heavy load, we see that the client does a lot of Getattr and Access (nfsstat -w 1). We were able to compile the DDB option into the kernel and when the machine hung,we entered into the debugger and saw that we were stuck in a _write call. The following is what we saw when we did a trace. _boidone(f418d200,f418d200,f22bf000,f22dc600,3) at _boidone 0x2e6 _nfs_doio(f418d200,f22df000,f22dc600,1,f418d200) at _nfs_doio 0x4c5 _nfs_strategy(efbffddc) at _nfs_strategy 0x68 _nfs_writebp(f418d200,1,efbffec4,f0163000,efbffe50) at _nfs_writebp 0x125 _nfs_bwrite(efbff50) at _nfs_bwrite 0x10 _nfs_write(efbffee08,f02564e0,1,efbff94,2) at _nfs_write 0x648 _vn_write(f25d6f80,efbfff34,f22bf000,f02564e0,f22c600) at _vn_write 0x93 _write(f220c600,efbff94,efbff84,0,5167) at _write 0x97 _syscall I am not sure what to do from here. We can only run traffic for about 4 hours before our machine hangs. I suspect that this might be related to a GETATTR or ACCESS nfs problem or a possible tcp/ip bug under heavy load. Can anyone help or point me in the right direction. Moving to 3.x is not possible because we are using a product that we purchased from Sweden. The Swedish product is the base of all our telecom products here at AGCS and it only runs on 2.2.8. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Well if you don't mind, then take a look at the supported hardware page and try to match up. but if you didn't understand my question: The 'chipset' referers to the type of card it is, the same way you'd tell someone (about your video card) "It's a Diamond Stealth Viper 2000, or it's a ATI Fury." Well we need to know the actual designer and what chips the designer chose to slap onto this card. Otherwise how are we to know if we have a driver or not? -Alfred > > Thanks for replying, > Robert > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Nov 23 11:55: 6 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 3FC001514E for ; Tue, 23 Nov 1999 11:54:58 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jonc@logisticsoftware.co.nz) Received: from jonc.logisticsoftware.co.nz (jonc.logisticsoftware.co.nz [10.1.3.1]) by logisticsoftware.co.nz (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id IAA05991; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 08:54:04 +1300 (NZDT) Received: (from jonc@localhost) by jonc.logisticsoftware.co.nz (8.9.3/8.9.3) id IAA96901; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 08:54:04 +1300 (NZDT) (envelope-from jonc) Date: Wed, 24 Nov 1999 08:54:04 +1300 From: Jonathan Chen To: "System Admin."

I've a spare FreeBSD box here, and am looking to train people up as admins on it - Howto use the root account, howto configure services, securing services etc. Thing is, it'd be more intresting for myself to set it up as virtual machines, i.e. chrooted environments with different IPs, thus excluding each of the trainee-admins away from each other as much as possible. I know it's been done before etc., but I couldn't seem to find a pointer to a web page explaining precisely what to do with patches etc. I'd love to RTFM, but I can't seem to find TFM. :) I'm also utterly unwilling to attempt such crazyness myself, coding wise. Though that's probably a good thing. The machine is currently running 3.1-STABLE, but that can be upgraded if needed...

Actually, I'd like to see my system working on my Intel/386 machine but due to some strange mistakes I don't have any success at all. The problem is: I use two IDE-Hard Disks described as wd0 and wd1. The first disk is occupied by WIN95 and LINUX, the second one is completely empty. Well, I used fdisk to create a slice of 3GB addressed as wd1s1a and divided it into three partitions: 500 MB for / 496 MB for swap 2000M for /usr After editing the disklabel and adding the bootmanager I finished and installed my customized distribution. Well, and now the system always changes the root device to wd0s1a where it obviously doesn't find anything and cries "panic: cannot mount root (2)". This is followed by a reboot. I tried to unload the kernel and reload it with arguments such as "boot kernel -wd1s1a", "boot kernel -1:wd1s1a" etc. Now I don't know what to do 'cause it is impossible to set an R-flag for a slice in the fdisk manager. Well,I hope you have an idea that'll help me out. Thanks for your efforts.

I use WordPerfect 8 for Linux on my FreeBSD machine. You can purchase it at any software store or download it from Corel. I use WordPerfect on my Windows Machines because I can use fonts under 8 pt, which lets me document code better. I don't get the line wraps. I also have Office 2000 on one of my Windows NT machines and there are times such intermingling fonts for heading and such where WP 8 gets confused. Then you get confused and have to spend time in the view control command mode to straighten out the mess. I use Adobe to publish and I can load either into PageMaker. In the cases where I have used it, MS Excel gives you more control when you generate graphs. I want to chose the colors for each line in the chart and I can do that with Excel. I don't know if StarOffice or Applixware will do that. I have downloaded StarOffice but haven't added it. I haven't had a need and if you don't need it there isn't any reason to spend the time adding it. You may find it much more effective to create a dual boot system, which lets you use the right tool for the project. You may not find features that you need in what you will have available on FreeBSD and that lets you use the best of both worlds. I still have Win 98 on my Windows computers but none of them default to it at boot.

It was reported in later mail to be an ATM NIC that is simular to the Efficent "Midway" ATM card. and that "a couple of guys" were working on a BSD driver. ---------------------------- On October 15, 1999, in the mailing list freebsd-hackers, there was an announcement of a VDSL PCI card that uses FreeBSD (mailto:hsu@vdslsystems.com). ---------------------------- Besides these two leads, internal modems and the chipsets they use are not documented well enough for us to write drivers. The external DSL routers are really good values when you consider what you get. I would recommend reasking your question on the freebsd-atm mailing list. --mark.

Right, twice. I know rexec says connection is denied, I submitted this just because when i telnet the host on port 512, it doesn't deny connection. So I've done the test on my FBSD workstation after i have enabled rexecd in inetd.conf ( and of course sent a HUP to inetd). Same result, connection refused. That's why I posted ;).

Simple marking, cutting, pasting is all I really need. You'd be surprised: Emacs will do all this. About the only thing you might find unusual is that, by default, it is in insert mode, but you can turn that off (press the "insert" key). It supports mice and cut and paste. It also won't turn your text into a single long line without telling you. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

Have you tried something like `killall natd; sleep $n; natd -f natd.rc` for some value of n which would probably allow the first natd to die? I don't use natd, so I don't even know if it responds to SIGTERM, so forgive me if this is a silly suggestion. SIGKILL should *really* be a last resort. -- 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 Tue Nov 23 13:27:24 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.monsterbymistake.com (monsterbymistake.com [205.207.163.17]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1B38014E73 for ; Tue, 23 Nov 1999 13:26:44 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from drek@MonsterByMistake.Com) Received: from jazz.monsterbymistake.com (jazz.monsterbymistake.com[205.207.163.189]) by mail.monsterbymistake.com (Smail-3.2.0.101 1997-Dec-17 #3; 1998-Sep-25) (2086 bytes) via sendmail with /P:esmtp/R:bind_hosts/T:inet_zone_bind_smtp id (sender ident using rfc1413) for ; Tue, 23 Nov 1999 16:17:07 -0500 (EST) Date: Tue, 23 Nov 1999 17:36:06 -0500 (EST) From: Agent Drek To: James A Wilde Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Programmers' editor?

It asked me to give it a specific block to fix. Application running on my server is smbd and nmbd. I have rebooted once, then there was an error in fstab. I re-edited it, and the result is status quo. I have tried mounting each partion, although they are marked clean, mount gave me the same segamentation error.

This is not flippant answer; editors are a real personal preference (religious wars are fought over vi versus emacs) so only you can know which you consider a good choice for your needs.

Standard basically means delete any boot manager that's there and don't replace it with anything. Just make it a plain mbr. Usually during the install it will then do a newfs on each mount point and start the install. I don't know if there's a way to tell to just zap the mbr and that's all.

How should I compile kernel in order to support > four IDE controllers? The Abit BE6's 3rd and 4th IDE controllers are not standard IDE controllers, they are HighPoint UltraATA 66 controllers (that's also why every other OS needs drivers to support it too). Therefore they don't get recognized by the standard wdc driver. Look near the top of your dmesg for an ide_pci line. If there isn't one that refers to the HighPoint controllers, FreeBSD won't find them. I saw it mentioned that -current now has support for the HighPoint controller, so you may have to go to that in order to get your 3rd and 4th controllers working.

Hardware is a 256mb HP Netserver LPr with an HP network card (it's an Intel chipset, fxp driver). SCSI is 895 using ncr0 on this box. I have been running a number of similar boxes in various functions for some time with little trouble. Today I was greeted with a trap 12. Unfortunately no single swap device has enough space to hold a crash dump as they are interleaved. The kernel is recompiled with maxusers 256 and unnecessary drivers disabled, so the instruction pointer is of limited interest. It is given below.

Interestingly, that command doesn't work on this here IRIX box. The :viusage command isn't standard. It's an nvi'ism.

I was very interested as we currently use several of their SmartRAID IV cards in our FreeBSD boxes and we are very pleased. I have scanned the archives of the lists and I see that SmartRAID V support is not yet ready, and the DPT SmartRAID webpages do not list FreeBSD as a platform that is supported. However, the new webpages for the SmartRAID VI *DO* list FreeBSD as a supported OS, and I was wondering if anyone had tested or developed the drivers or knew of anyone that has used a SmartRAID VI card on a FreeBSD box. If so, does anyone know if it uses the driver that powers the SmartRAID IV that is in the -STABLE and -RELEASE trees now, or does it exsist only in the -CURRENT tree (the website dosen't mention anything about what releases/trees the driver is in, it just says FreeBSD)? .--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------. | Robert Gash | Work - gashalot@fasturl.net | | Systems Administrator, FastURL | Personal - gashalot@gashalot.com | | http://www.fasturl.net | http://www.gashalot.com | `- GNUPG Key Fingerprint: 8122 587F 660D 68C7 BD5B A235 C59E 130B 44FB F5BC -' To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Nov 23 18:31:36 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from news-ma.rhein-neckar.de (news-ma.rhein-neckar.de [193.197.90.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6A2F8150BF for ; Tue, 23 Nov 1999 18:31:33 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from daemon@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de) Received: from bigeye.rhein-neckar.de (uucp@localhost) by news-ma.rhein-neckar.de (8.8.8/8.8.8) with bsmtp id DAA16110 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 03:31:31 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from daemon@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de) Received: (from daemon@localhost) by bigeye.rhein-neckar.de (8.9.3/8.9.3) id AAA56873 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 00:36:12 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from daemon) From: naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de (Christian Weisgerber) Subject: Re: Clearing Screen Date: 24 Nov 1999 00:36:12 +0100 Message-ID: <81f8dc$1nh1$1@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de> References: <071601bf3538$107b73f0$4d01190a@tp.com.pe> <81epod$1dv1$1@bigeye.rhein-neckar.de> <015a01bf3603$e0888b70$4d01190a@tp.com.pe> To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Richard Cotrina wrote: > > P|Pc|Pc console:\ > > :cl=\E[H\E[2J:\ > > :ht:np:sp#115200: > > I got it to work !! > > The "cl" option line must not be at the end of the block.

It all starts out with the PC BIOS. Now, you have to understand that the PC BIOS is incredibly stupid. All it can do is load the first sector (512 bytes) from a hard disk. In its industry standard version this "master boot record" contains a slice table and a piece of code that silently checks which slice entry has a boot flag set, then loads the first sector of that slice and executes it in turn. The MBR program can only boot whichever slice is currently set to active. That's sufficient for booting FreeBSD. However, if you have installed several operating systems, it doesn't give you a choice. For that you need some kind of boot manager. FreeBSD comes with Booteasy (boot0) which can replace the default MBR program. Booteasy will scan its slice table, check the slice type, and offer you a simple menu to choose from. That's the F1, F2, etc prompt. Yes, it's simplistic, but that's all you can you cram into 512 bytes minus slice table. In a FreeBSD slice, the first 8kB contain the basic boot strap. It's split into the first sector (boot1), a sector for the disklabel with the partition table, and the main part of the boot strap (boot2). boot1 is loaded by the MBR (whether the default code or Booteasy). Its main task is to pull in boot2. The FreeBSD bootstrap is already quite powerful. It can support a serial console as well as the local graphics adapter and keyboard, it allows you to enter some options, and it can read a file straight from a UFS file system. In fact, the boot strap can directly boot the kernel. Nowadays, though, the bootstrap typically loads a program called, appropriately enough, loader. This is by comparison a monstrous (136kB on my box) piece of code, which contains a full-fledged Forth interpreter, and allows for complex start up scripts *before* the kernel has even been loaded. It is this loader which gives you the ten second countdown for breaking to a command line or autobooting. Ultimately, loader boots /kernel (or whatever kernel you specify). Still with me? If you have a "dangerously dedicated" disk, there are no slices, all the disk is implicitly a single FreeBSD slice, and there is no traditional MBR. Instead, the first sector of the disk is already the boot1 part of the FreeBSD bootstrap, which is then directly loaded and executed by the BIOS. Some misguided BIOSes refuse to boot a first sector that doesn't contain what looks to them like a valid slice table--that's the "dangerous" part.

Win95b is the first OS, and I hope to load FreeBSD on the new partition. The FIPS session seemed to go well, but ended with: Repartioning complete With FAT32 partitions, you should now run scandisk on the shortened partition Bye! Memory Allocation error Cannot load COMMAND, system halted. I had run FIPS from a: using a boot disk as recommended in fips.doc. I then rebooted normally, starting Windows95, and ran FDISK: Current Fixed Disk Drive: 1 Partition Status Type Volume label Mbytes System Usage C: 1 A PRI-DOS 4628 FAT32 75% 2 NON-DOS 1553 25% So, partition 2 is the newly created one, but it is listed as NON-DOS. According to fips.doc, fips is supposed to create a new primary DOS partition, which it seems not to have done in my case. Also, the new partition is supposed to be recognized by DOS after you reboot, but no new drives appear in Windows Explorer, just the same old A, C, and Q (cd rom). Not knowing what to do, I "fiddled" with the FDISK option that allows you to set the active partition. I set 2 as Active, and then switched back, figuring this wasn't going to help anything. I then rebooted using the FIPS boot disk to run fips -t since the fips.doc says that's a way of making sure things went right. The partition table displayed was now different from what it was when I originally ran FIPS: original: START END S tart # of Part. Bootble Head Cyl. Sector System Head Cyl. Sector Sectr. Sect.

And under "System", 4 now says 1Ch instead of 0Ch. (whatever that means). The fips.doc does warn that you could encounter problems if your system uses a "disk cache" (like Smartdrive), so I searched my C: drive for "smartdrive" before even starting fips and found nothing. Maybe there is some other disk cache on my system? I don't know how to check for that, other than running "find" for the words "disk cache", which I did, and which listed various files that contained either "disk" or "cache" only, none of which seemed to belong to the sort of program warned about in fips.doc. My system has just the one HD (Intel 82371AB PCI Bus Master IDE Controller). If I can provide any other info that might be useful let me know.

However, if I add /etc/start_if.edu fill suggested in the guide I found, the system hangs on boot, in a loop about arpresolve not being able to resolve. I've tried moving the file to /usr/local/etc, but nothing happens on boot; the result is no different than when the file is not there. It's a message suggesting that gethostbyname failed, and inviting me to try to configure manually. It doesn't seem to appear in /var/log/messages (neither does the arpresolve message). When I try manually, simply typing the above phrase works every time. I had the same problem with xdm, and finally gave up--but at the time, the system was on my desk, running around the clock; today, the kids neet to dualboot it for windows for their games, and freebsd for internet stuff (The thought of letting windows 3.1 run around with an internet connection scares me. Hopefully, wine will run a good chunk of their older stuff).

He said that FreeBSD is made to control server machines. He also said that it's much, much, MUCH, MUCH better than the other POSIX systems, such as Linux. When he said me that thing, I became really scarred...!! "Wow!!! Linux is very good... and this guy is saying to me that FreeBSD is much better... it should be perfect!" Well, I'm an addicted Linux user, but I became really interested in FreeBSD. I want to know the main diferences between both systems. Is there anything that I can't do with Linux that I can do with FreeBSD? Wich one is "older" or "more mature"? And what about software to run under FreeBSD? I've heard that FreeBSD can run Linux programs without recompiling... If I have an already set up Linux box, can I simply change the kernel and stay with my old programs? Is FreeBSD better than Linux when working as an Internet server, or as an ordinary SAMBA or NFS/PC-NFS server on a local network? And what about hardware support? Witch one supports *now* most of the latest hardware? hehehe... sorry about the rain of questions... and sorry about my poor english! :) Thanx for your atention...

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I would like to apologise for the missleading comment I made about vinum and using 4 18 gig drives with vinum. In teaching myself the software I have been using 4 18 gig drives in serveral configurations including striping, striping/mirroring and raid 5. in each situation I had to wait a long time to init the volumes and newfs because of their great size. I also took drives out of the vinum volume to simulate failures so that I could learn how to restore from failure. I have had no problems with vinum using mirroring or striping. In fact I am impressed with the speed. the only problems I have had were with raid 5 and doccumented on the vinum web site. Again I did not mean to imply there was a problem with vinum or using 18 gig drives with it.

If you look at the Y2K page, you'll see "bin/14472" and "misc/14511", both of which have been identified since the FreeBSD-3.3 release. Additionally, the slurp port has had a problem fixed. bin/14472 extends the date command to allow you to use 199910221913 vice 9910221913 for setting the date. misc/14511 fixes the problem of using "chpass with 00" to set an expiration date (however, "chpass with 2000" works).

Motherboard chipset: VX-Pro (Taiwanese rip-off of Intel VX chipset, supposed pin and function compatible) FreeBSD version: both 2.2.8 and 3.3-RELEASE I've tried the standard GENERIC kernel off the CD with 2.2.8 and 3.3, as well as a stripped down 3.3 kernel with the line controller pci0 in it. I've tried again without the 2 3COM NICs plugged in, and it made no difference. It actually never gets round to saying "Probing for devices on PCI bus" It goes straight from Preloaded ELF kernel to Preloaded userconfig script etc etc (userconfig script is empty, BTW) then to Probing for devices on ISA bus.

Actually you may or may not find this of some interest, but in Apache: The Definitive Guide (O'Reilly 2nd Edition) it states the following: "The Microsoft Frontpage extensions are available from Microsoft. These add extensions to support Microsoft's Frontpage authoring product. However, the Apache Group feels that they introduce serious security problems which is why they are not mentioned on the Apache site." Considering what it gives you .vs. what you MAY or MAY NOT incur damage-wise, is it really worth bothering with? Most web providers out there just allow their clients to ftp their websites manually (in my experience anyways). I realize this reply helps about as much as having another hole drilled into your head, but it's just my two cents.

That makes perfect sense to me, but i've never had any success tinkering about in the ports tree as a normal luser. If i've got a port installed running make just gives me a series of "attempting to fetch.. ..permission denined" error messages. What do you suggest I do, chmod the /usr/ports to g+w and tinker as a user and install as a root?

The Makefile seems to be in a format that is not recognised by FreeBSD.

Is there no reliable standard of how Makefile syntax works? My real question is of course what do I need to do to get the make work with FreeBSD?

Most ports in /usr/ports have been tested by a large audience and most of the maintainers of those ports are active within the appropriate projects. Most ports have often stable and development ports. Feel free to submit ports structures for stable ports if you think that supporting somewhat development versions in your eyes is bad. -- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven Network- and systemadministrator bART Internet Services / Tel: +31 - (0) 10 - 240 39 70 VIA NET.WORKS Netherlands To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 24 1: 5:40 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from balrog.rt.ru (balrog.rt.ru [195.161.0.169]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 709C014FDF for ; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 01:05:30 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dima@rt.ru) Received: from rt.ru (localhost.rt.ru [127.0.0.1]) by balrog.rt.ru (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id MAA30535 for ; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 12:05:53 +0300 (MSK) (envelope-from dima@rt.ru) Message-ID: <383BAA71.A4099757@rt.ru> Date: Wed, 24 Nov 1999 12:05:53 +0300 From: "Dmitry S.

Here's a simple mud-map of the links concerned: Cisco | | defiant (ed0)---------(ed1)odyssey | | modem | | saturnv Now, when saturnv's link drops, there is a delay for it to be re-established. However, in the meantime, if any packets are transmitted by defiant, intended for saturnv, defiant adds the route: saturnv link#1 to it's routing table. This unfortunately, overrides it's default route to the Cisco router. The only method I've found to fix this problem, after it occurrs, is to use 'route delete xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx', where xxx is the IP of saturnv. Has this behaviour ever been observed, and is there any known workaround/solution to prevent it? Many thanks. Regards, d.

I successfully installed a complete and functional diskless system. using FreeBSD 3.3. I found that the documentation is a little out of date and only works for old FreeBSD versions. Nevertheless, I wrote a log of what I did. Some of the things I did were mere brute force, but they worked. Now, I have some doubts... 1. I think I do not know how to mount the swap file. It seems to me that the kernel did it... but I do not know, "mount" does not report it as mounted when my client begins to work. 2. I had to use "rarpd" to be make my server "listen" to my client bootp request. This daemon is not documented in the articles about "diskless" in "/usr/share/doc/en/articles". 3. "rc.diskless" make a *lot* of rare things and I had to remove this file in my client's root file system to make my system work. Where may I find documenteation about these scripts? 4. I do knot know how to encrypt a password in the client's root file system before it starts for the first time. I guess "vipw -d ." can do it, but I need to have the encrypted password. I can copy the root's password from the "server" system... I think this is too complicated for a novice administrator. I have to set the root's password when the diskless system boots for the first time. 5. Using the "boot diskette" process, the kernel image in the diskless system has to be "AOUT". It cannot be "ELF" because the booting program in "/usr/src/sys/i386/boot/netboot" asks it so. I have not tried to do it with a network card with the booting ROM. 6. How can I create the "aliases" data base in the client's space? I mean, I'm using the FreeBSD bin distribution and I would like to prepare it completely. I cannot send the aliases database to the client's area. I have to create it until my system starts for the first time. Do you want to read my log? It is gzip-ed and attached to this mail. All your comments, corrections, suggestions, are welcome. I can also send you a Spanish version...

The problem is in your BIOS - any PC can't access HDD more than 512Mb in NORMAL or 8Gb in LBA mode throught BIOS. But bootmgr use BIOS! All You have to do is to repartition your drive for the FreeBSD partition was first - then both win98 and FreeBSD would lay in first 8GB. For the detalis read Handbook or "The Complete FreeBSD".

The fact that a corefile from one of the programs you run isn't written into a directory you don't have permission to modify (such as /) can probably be counted as a (rather basic) Unix feature, yes. mkb To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 24 3:28:13 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 68BD414A1C for ; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 03:28:06 -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; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 12:27:48 +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 11qaQb-00082M-00; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 12:17:37 +0100 Received: from localhost (hg9456@localhost) by sun33.mni.fh-giessen.de (8.9.3+Sun/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA26890; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 12:27:32 +0100 (MET) X-Authentication-Warning: sun33.mni.fh-giessen.de: hg9456 owned process doing -bs Date: Wed, 24 Nov 1999 12:27:31 +0100 (MET) From: Ariel Burbaickij X-Sender: hg9456@sun33 To: Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven Cc: Ariel Burbaickij , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: two branches in Gnome and fbsd response to it In-Reply-To: <19991124100312.B58890@lucifer.bart.nl> 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, 24 Nov 1999, Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven wrote: > -On [19991124 09:00], Ariel Burbaickij (Ariel.Burbaickij@mni.fh-giessen.de) wrote: > >Gnome projekt maintains usually two branches of development > >Stable and Beta-releases.The versions supported in /usr/ports > >are afahs development(my particular interess is xchat the version > >supported is 1.3.7 in /usr/ports/irc)I would like to have > >the stable version 1.2.0.

Now all log messages no matter what category or priority will appear on ALT+F12. Of course the screen is limited to 200 lines using Scroll Lock in combination with the PageUp, PageDown, and arrow keys. The limit of 200 lines can be changed by inserting the line options SC_HISTORY_SIZE=200 in your kernel configuration file. I believe the value should be a multiple of some other value, I don't remember right now, perhaps someone else knows more about this. But as already suggested, comment out the lines ending with /dev/console in the /etc/syslog.conf file. While you're editing the /etc/syslog.conf file you might want to comment out the lines ending with root. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Trond Endrestøl | trond@gtf.ol.no Merkantilvegen 59HB7, | trond@ramstind.gtf.ol.no N-2815 GJØVIK, NORWAY |+47 61139424 || +47 63874242 Patron of The Art of Computer Programming| FreeBSD 3.3 & Pine 4.10 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 24 3:35:32 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from lucifer.bart.nl (lucifer.bart.nl [194.158.168.74]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D1EA3151EB for ; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 03:35:15 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from asmodai@lucifer.bart.nl) Received: (from asmodai@localhost) by lucifer.bart.nl (8.9.3/8.9.3) id MAA67934; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 12:33:53 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from asmodai) Date: Wed, 24 Nov 1999 12:33:53 +0100 From: Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven To: Paul Murphy Cc: freebsd-questions Subject: Re: ntpdate error? msg.

Let me make something clear, I don't reply to argue. I merely state what the current state of affairs with regard to port is.

Basically and in theory, yes. In practice, no. The user community is the community which supplies the ports. So the user community is also the community which can get it to go otherwise. But in the case of ports, there's an entire mailinglist devoted to it along with people who basically co-ordinate the whole effort. Some people whom come to mind: Chris Piazza, Satoshi Asami, Steve Price, Jim Mock and some other long time contributors. > What is so wrong then with idea to have two branches of ports > one stable and one current?There are people who want stable > there people are who want current and there people who want > stable in one part and current or beta in other ports in cvs is only current, but that does not imply the ports shouldn't be stable. Hence I said to take it up with the maintainer and the ports list to let your dissatisfaction be known, but don't just be a messenger, be a part of the solution. That's what I have been trying to say. I never had problems with ports being beta or current or how you call it. They were always stable for use in our production.

One of the machines at work I upgraded to 3.3R. Now the CDROM will mount exactly once. That is to say after a reboot the cd will mount and reads fine. You can unmount it without error. If you try to mount it again it will return: CD9660: Invalid Arguements It does not matter if you change CDs. The ROM is useless untill a reboot. Here is what is reported on bootup: wdc1 at 0x170-0x177 irq 15 on isa wdc1: unit 1 (atapi): , removable, intr, iordy atapi1.1: unknown phase atapi1.1: unknown phase atapi1.1: unknown phase atapi1.1: unknown phase atapi1.1: unknown phase I can't swear that the "atapi1.1: unknown phase" is new. It is not my machine and I rarely sit in front of it. Now I did a search on "atapi1.1: unknown phase" and got some hits. One of which is a unclosed gnat report from some time ago. None of these hits had a resoulition. I have moved the ROM to it's own interface and still the same behavior happens. Any one expirenced this, or better yet have a soulition?

FreeBSD (3.3-stable) no longer bootable, even though everything (partitions, disklabel?) appears to be "there" upon examination with boot/install floppy, but I can't see anything (yet) with the fixit floppy or CD. Is there a "reasonably safe" way for recovery? 2. Linux LILO (Slackware 4 & 7) gives error message when trying to set up BSD partition for booting. "First sector of /dev/sdb1 doesn't contain a valid partition signature" ?? (Quoting from memory; can't get actual text right now...) I think I can fix this if I can get FreeBSD back to working... I've been multi-booting FreeBSD, MS-DOS & Slackware 4 for months, just fine with LILO. Installation of Slackware 7 appears to have overwritten something in the FreeBSD partition/slice. Also, reinstallation of SW4 does the same thing. Partition (slice) layout is as follows: (/dev/sdb) 1. BSD (a5), start cyl 2, end cyl 197 2. Linux boot/root (/, type 83), start cyl 199, end cyl 203 3. DOS-extended (contains other Linux partitions) 4. (empty) LILO uses the MBR of sda, the 1st hdd (DOS is on that one). What I've done before (that worked) was to delete the FreeBSD partition (#1 in my case, SW boot is #2), install & configure my Linux kernel & add the FreeBSD partition back in just like it was before. Yes, this has always worked fine... The *major* thing I need to do now is getting FreeBSD bootable again. Linux is expendable for now, FreeBSD is not... -kc To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 24 4:34:33 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from lucifer.bart.nl (lucifer.bart.nl [194.158.168.74]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9E68114EEF for ; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 04:34:29 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from asmodai@lucifer.bart.nl) Received: (from asmodai@localhost) by lucifer.bart.nl (8.9.3/8.9.3) id NAA68434; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 13:31:52 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from asmodai) Date: Wed, 24 Nov 1999 13:31:52 +0100 From: Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven To: Ariel Burbaickij Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: two branches in Gnome and fbsd response to it Message-ID: <19991124133152.F68066@lucifer.bart.nl> References: <19991124131046.C68066@lucifer.bart.nl> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0i In-Reply-To: ; from Ariel.Burbaickij@mni.fh-giessen.de on Wed, Nov 24, 1999 at 01:16:51PM +0100 Organisation: bART Internet Services B.V.

You can help by filling in the blanks. I have searched the mailing lists man pages and the net at large without getting a satisfactory understanding. Consider the following scenario. I need to compile a program consisting of two source files. main.c --> contains --> int main(int argc, char **argv) misc.c --> contains --> int funcA(arg1, arg2, ... ) main() does not know in advance that it has to invoke funcA. It uses dlopen()/dlsym() to obtain references and invoke funcA. The two source files will be linked into a single executable. I am using GCC running on FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE. Q1 : What flags are required to compile the individual source files? Q2 : What flags are required to link the object files into the single executable? Q3 : Is there anything else I should be wary of?

Normally, ifconfig_ed0="DHCP" in your rc.conf is pretty much what you need to start the DHCP client at startup. You could start it with start_if.ed0, but there's no reason to do so. I don't think this is related to your problem, though. I *think* your problem is that the loopback isn't configured yet when you try to start DHCP on ed0. The easiest way to fix that is to change the interfaces variable in your rc.conf so it lists lo0 before ed0. If you want to run startup scripts from /usr/local, put them in /usr/local/etc/rc.d, but this is *not* the way to configure your network interfaces. > I had the same problem with xdm, and finally gave up--but at the time, There's an entry in the FAQ on this.

The first is from the boot selector which enables you to boot from difference slices (Microsoft "partitions"). It can allow you to boot non-FreeBSD systems. The second one comes from the bootstrap on the FreeBSD slice. It allows you to choose the file you want to load, usually a kernel image. I think you're limited to the root directory.

I'm not going to try to put vi down, but you've got to admit that most newbies find it less than intuitive. Emacs has changed a lot since people got fed up with its idiosyncracies; it now has mouse and cursor key support, and is thus much closer to the editors in the Microsoft world. And nowadays you don't *have* to have your Emacs open all the time. For example, I'm writing this in an Emacs window which I opened (from mutt) specially for that purpose. On the other hand, you'll find it convenient to have an editor window open somewhere once you realise that you can comfortably edit 200 files at the same time. It's like a notepad reminding you of what you're doing. > I used to only be able to use 'jot' under IRIX ... it's much more > productive to know a good editor though. Agreed. That's why I don't recommend jot, pico, ee or friends. They all do the job, but it's easy to run into their limitations, and relearning any system component as central as an editor is a Real Pain.

The information may be in your BIOS setup screen; put that in the config line instead of "0" and you may have better luck.

I run ipfw/natd on this machine to allow local systems outside access. I now want to run dhcpd for the subnets on local interfaces other than the one connecting to the cable modem. I started by reading the crab book. It states that all physically connected subnets must have a subnet entry in order for dhcpd to run. Since the connection to the cable modem doesn't know its subnet until run time I'm at a loss as to what to do. Is it even possible to learn the upstream address dynamically and be a dhcp server for downstream devices at the same time? I'm running FreeBSD-3.3-Release.

Well, it's nothing to do with nvi. If you aren't in a directory you have write permission for, the kernel can't write a core file for you. Try it in /tmp, you should find it can dump core there.

You're absolutely right - apologies for not including more of the dmesg output or checking the lists (no matches in gnats). I wouldn't be surprised if that's been responsible for some other inexplicable page faults I've seen before, but as most have been double, the instruction pointer hasn't been much help to me in tracing it. By the way: the same behaviour is exhibited using either sym0 or ncr0 to drive the SCSI card. Kind regards, Stuart.

I disagree with your view that Windows takes care of that kind of thing for you. I spend hours every day in Microsoft Outlook, and I can tell you with conviction that Windows mailers that I know (cc:Mail, Outlook, and Netscape) take care of screwing up that kind of thing for you. They do such a good job that it's nearly impossible to send a message that arrives unmutilated at a destination using a mailer other than the one you used to create the message. Outlook messages only look good to other Outlook users; cc:Mail messages only look good to other cc:Mail users (and then not always). At least most UNIX mailers allow you to send out properly formatted messages if you set them up right. > And I don't really think vi is crap.

In order to have FreeBSD booting properly, the slice and label that contain the kernel have to be in the first 1024 cylinders. With a large Windoze partition before it, the FreeBSD partition is probaly impossible to boot. [Note: what DOS calls 'partition' in BSd is called 'slice'. A 'partition' is also called a 'disklabel' in BSD.] Since only the root partition needs to be below 1024 cylinders, and that is not really necessary to be a big one, the recommended way of solving this kind of problems is to create a small (say 64MB) BSD slice before your first (and only?) Windows slice. Then the Windows slice, in any size you find suitable, and finally all the BSD slices you want/need. -- Giorgos Keramidas, "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

Every time a secondary's zones expire, they're updated from the primary name server. Expiring too late means you might not always have the very-latest changes in the records.

I've seen panics within hours, although days is more likely. Little difference between the drivers: under both sym and ncr I've had it stable for a week (under ncr, it's gone for several weeks in school holidays when the box was less loaded), then at the end of last week repeated panics within minutes or a few hours of startup. > Do you have any way to easily reproduce it?

Not easily, since I have now split this box into multiple squidlets to reduce the load on any one. Other servers are far less affected.

Just an addendum to my previous reply, rexec says connection is denied after having wait for 60 seconds (tcp timeout ?), but no socket seems to be created (sockstat doesn't show any socket opened by profile launching rexec).

That's not quite accurate. -current has support for the HighPoint Ultra-ATA/66 controller, but so far (according to the mailing list archive) it only supports Ultra-ATA/33 mode, which is enough to recognize and use the drives attached.

I haven't used emacs all that recently, I think it was about 4-5 years ago when I last tried it for much of anything. It's a perfectly good editor, much like Linux is a perfectly good operating system, it's just one I choose not to use. I won't defend it and I may poke fun it it's relative memory footprint and insanely large feature set, but I don't intend to slam it. When I tell people to use a real editor I usually mention both emacs and vi, I just can't help them with emacs since the emacs skills pretty much stop at bailing out so I can reset the EDITOR variable to vi and get back to work. ;-) It's possible that emacs might even make me more efficient, but I doubt I'd make up the time I'd lose retraining myself to do that things I know how to do in vi. That's especially true since last time I looked, number of them didn't appear to have 1-1 mappings meaning I had to change my whole paradigm not just the keys I press. -- 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 Wed Nov 24 12:22:14 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.telestream.com (mail.telestream.com [205.238.4.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4E86114D29 for ; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 12:22:11 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from keith@mail.telestream.com) Received: from localhost (keith@localhost) by mail.telestream.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id MAA04166 for ; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 12:20:34 -0800 Date: Wed, 24 Nov 1999 12:20:34 -0800 (PST) From: To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: FrontPage :( 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 my last ditch effort here. How in the heck do I install per user webs in the apache13-fp port? I've scratched my head over this for two days now and can't seem to get it. Each time I select yes to the option in fp_install it fails to put shtml.exe and other files into the users ~/public_html although it does create all the _vti_* directories. And if I manualy cp the .exe files to the proper directories it erases them if I go back into fp_install and add additional users. Can the fpsrvadm.exe install per user webs into their ~/public_html directories? Every thing I've tried with that installs it into the root web area. :-/ Any help would be great..

Yes, but to be honest I haven't used it much. I've installed the package a few times, thinking I'd give it a try, but I never got further than running it on some file, finding it far too different to Vi for me to ever get used to, exiting it and pkg_deleting it. Perhaps I should give it time, but to be honest Vi does everything I need (and probably much more). Vi just feels "right" to me, somehow.

I'm experiencing misunderstanding of principles of ipfw rules processing when running aliased (-nat) ppp connection. My server is our home lan's proxy and gateway to outside world. I run ppp to provider with NAT enabled. Of course I run ipfw too. The problem is that I cannot quite understand what's going on when packet from our internal network get to my ppp interface. Is it first going through firewall rules and after that gets its address aliased ? Or does it go through throuw rules after aliasing ? Or does it combines just described behaviors ? I didn't find an answer from man pages. Sorry for probably stupid question and sorry for putting the second question to the same message (that's because I think the answer for the first one is trivial). The question is: I wanna learn, HOW do I ? I consider myself expirienced programmer and average administrator. All I want is to learn myself the internals of FreeBSD and its network stack. But I don't know where to start - looking through kernel code is a bit confusing - I can't find ends :-(. Is there any public resources that would give some start punch ? -- Vlad Skvortsov, vss@ulstu.ru, vlad@high.net.ru To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 24 13:42:39 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from wop21.wop.wtb.tue.nl (wop21.wop.wtb.tue.nl [131.155.56.216]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7EF8814E00 for ; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 13:42:36 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from karelj@wop21.wop.wtb.tue.nl) Received: (from karelj@localhost) by wop21.wop.wtb.tue.nl (8.9.3/8.9.3) id WAA03051; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 22:41:44 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from karelj) Date: Wed, 24 Nov 1999 22:41:44 +0100 From: Karel Joop Bosschaart To: "Michael J.

Well, speaking as a FreeBSD newbie, and partial Linux convert, I guess I can comment. Up until recently I have used vi (vim to be precise) for all my editing tasks. I started learning emacs a couple of weeks ago, and it has now become my main editor for coding purposes. The first thing I did however, was to remap my capslock key to act as ctrl. ;) I've found out that overall, my productivity has gone up with emacs, though there are special circumstances where I say to myself 'grrr, I wish I were using vi'. I have yet to figure out how to repeat my last command in emacs, a la '.' in vi, for instance. I still use vi for quickie jobs like editing config files, as I find it's more convenient to just type vi in the xterm I'm already in, as opposed to switching desktops to the copy of emacs I keep running at all times. As always, YMMV. > > Actually, if you're going to spend much time in UNIX, you should at > > least have basic proficiency with vi since it's always there and > > emacs may not be. > There I agree entirely. I do use vi for exactly this reason. I'll pipe in with a vigorous 'aye' here too. --agl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 24 13:46: 6 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from school.cs.indiana.edu (school.cs.indiana.edu [129.79.252.113]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 005A915504 for ; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 13:45:42 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jiachen@cs.indiana.edu) Received: from localhost (jiachen@localhost) by school.cs.indiana.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3/IUCS_2.28) with ESMTP id QAA04128 for ; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 16:44:57 -0500 (EST) X-Authentication-Warning: school.cs.indiana.edu: jiachen owned process doing -bs Date: Wed, 24 Nov 1999 16:44:57 -0500 (EST) From: Jia-Huang Chen To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Where to get the source file of Walnut Creek FTP server ?

I have Apache 1.3.9 install on a server running FreeBSD 3.1, (I plan to upgrade the OS end of the semester). I am also turning on the proxy feature in apache on this server. Now I need use the system password file for access to the proxy. I have been able to use a password file I generated using htpasswd to restrict access, but I am dealing with over 6000 accounts on this system. I simple want to ask for their user name and password and if they are a valid account on the system let them through. I have install mod_perl support into my apache server, but I don't know how to verify it is working correctly. I have also installed the AuthenPasswd PERL module from CPAN. When I start up apache everything else works fine, but when I try to enter an area password protected using AuthenPasswd, the Auth box comes up but my username and password is not accepted. The error logs show: [Wed Nov 24 15:18:38 1999] [error] access to http://www.fhsu.edu/ failed for 198.248.101.39, reason: Apache::AuthenPasswd - user afleming: bad password I know I am entering the right password. Does any have any ideas what is wrong or where to even start checking things. OR does anyone know of a way to Auth off of the system password file other then using the AuthenPasswd module from CPAN.

I basically have three questions about bind8 in stable: 1) The version in stable is still 8.1.2 - is there any reason to believe that the current well-known vulnerabilities in bind are not present for some reason in our bind 8.1.2? 2) Why hasn't FreeBSD made a statement is response to Cert Advisory CA-99-14? 3) How soon will the bind version be updated in stable? I'd prefer to stick with source instead of ports for ease of maintenance accross multiple machines. If building bind from ports is (and will continue to be) the best way of maintaining bind, so be it - I will make the change across all machines - I'd just rather not do it if it is not necessary.

Thanks! Without looking at your data too specifically, it might very well be your ISP's fault -- when subnetting (Ie, not a full class C), many versions of BIND will NOT let the smaller nets do the in-addr.arpa. stuff. i have 16 static IPs, and while i can do 'forward' DNS for all my domains, I have to send the DNS admin at my ISP all the information for reverse lookups ... marc.

All goes well untill it is time to begin the actual install process, I am told that there is no cdrom found! After some digging, the only answer I have found is the one in Complete FreeBSD by Greg Lehey that says because I have an ATAPI cdrom that I need to get outside help. So here I am asking...Please help. The cdrom is a Hi-Val. I have never had a proble with it otherwise, and it does boot from the FreeBSD cdrom.

The only thing that isn't working is the hostname--xauth seems to be aware of the name that its been assigned, but HOST doesn't hold this, DISPLAY is merely :0.0, and insufficient info gets passed through ssh to access the display (for example, "ssh localhost -ltoor" generates the messages /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth: (stdin):1: bad display name ":10.0" in "add" command /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth: (stdin):2: bad display name "/unix:10.0" in "add" command I have to manually set DISPLAY to include the hostname at the other end, then cut & paste the cookie. I used the new options in /stand/sysinstall to give the name eyry (the system's old name) after telling it to use DHCP.

Based on a lot of messages traveling in the -stable mailing list, we're once again looking at putting together some volunteers to do QA on the upcoming 3.4 release, as well as working on testing new features and replicating/debugging bugs. If you're interested in helping out, drop me a line. I'm trying to get some initial coordination set up by the end of this weekend, so we can be ready to go around December 1st, which is when Jordan has been discussing having the first release candidate ready. The real requirements are that a.) you're willing to give the time (this is the biggest), b.) you have a reasonably speeded internet connection (you have to be able to turn over a release candidate in 4-6 hours - and they'll be between 200-600MBs), and you have some hardware to use for testing. For everyone else, this is a heads up that we're trying to get the project under way. We have about a half a dozen people who have offered to help out, so we should be off to a good start. More to follow as there is more to announce. -Brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Nov 24 17:36:32 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from cerberus.simoco.com (cerberus.simoco.com [193.150.150.4]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 596C914D59 for ; Wed, 24 Nov 1999 17:36:29 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from abbas.karbassian@cambridge.simoco.com) Received: from serv01.simoco.com ([193.150.134.3]) by cerberus.simoco.com with esmtp (Exim 2.05 #1) id 11qnml-0000qa-00; Thu, 25 Nov 1999 01:33:23 +0000 Received: from ukcamoracle1.simoco.com ([193.150.135.4] helo=ukcamoracle1) by serv01.simoco.com with esmtp (Exim 2.05 #2) id 11qnml-0001pI-00; Thu, 25 Nov 1999 01:33:23 +0000 Received: from localhost ([127.0.0.1] helo=ukcamoracle1) by ukcamoracle1 with smtp (Exim 2.05 #1) id 11qnoS-0006YJ-00; Thu, 25 Nov 1999 01:35:08 +0000 Message-ID: <383C924C.522@cambridge.simoco.com> Date: Thu, 25 Nov 1999 01:35:08 +0000 From: Abbas Karbassian x5262 X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.01 (X11; I; SunOS 5.5.1 sun4u) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Brian Blazer Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: CDROM troubble References: <99112418105702.01801@george> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Brian Blazer wrote: > > Hello all, > > I am having a darn hard time with a cdrom and freebsd 3.3. > > I am trying to install 3.3 on a relatively new box that I have made myself.

Considering that -CURRENT still includes 8.1.2 and that the 3.4 and 4.0 feature freezes are fast approaching (as is BIND9), I think that the ports version is your best bet.

For the benefit of future freebsd-questions list surfers I will briefly explain the problem, why it was a problem, and how I fixed it. Simple network topology: Internet | +----------------+ | +---------------+ | mailsvr1 (ns1) | +------------+ | websvr1 (ns2) | | main IP: .129 |-fxp0-| Cisco |-fxp0-| main IP: .130 | | alias IP: .133 | | Catalyst | | aliasIP: .134 | +----------------+ +------------+ +---------------+ I currently only have about 1800 domains in the nameservers, but I know this number will grow very rapidly, so I choose to allocate 2 extra IPs for ns1 and ns2 to the machines, that way if I ever needed a standalone nameserver(s) I could simply configure them with the ns1 and ns2 alias IPs and unalias them from the other machines. This would effectively move (painlessly and w/o InterNIC mods) all NS functions off of my mail and web servers with minimal downtime. However, this dual-IP configuration was the problem. The bind processes wanted to talk to each other using the main IPs (.129 and .130). To make the future movement process easier, all of my bind config files reference .133 and .134, so they don't need touching if I ever offload. The problem was, ns2 referenced .133 for all of the master { }; blocks for the slaved zone files, therefore when ns1 sent out the NOTIFY from .129 ns2 discarded it because it did not originate from the master. The fix for this problem was simple, but not immediately obvious: fix bind so that all inter-nameserver communication uses the .133 and .134 IP addresses. This task can be accomplished by the following configuration directives: ----- ns1 named.conf ----- options { /* .... the other config options were here .... */ transfer-source xxx.xx.xxx.133; query-source address xxx.xx.xxx.133 port *; /* .... some more options here .... */ }; -------------------------- And the same goes for ns2 (replacing 133 with 134). This forces the notify (query-source) and the transfers (transfer-source) to come from the .133 and .134 IP addresses. Now ns2 believes ns1 when ns1 sends notifys because they originate from the IP address configured in the zone master { } blocks on ns2. This also has the added benefit of making all other queries to other nameservers and such originate from the .133 and .134 IPs, so when you roll to external systems it appears that you have always been using them. -R On Thu, 25 Nov 1999, Mike Tancsa wrote: > On 24 Nov 1999 13:58:19 -0500, in sentex.lists.freebsd.questions you wrote: > > >I recently upgraded from bind 8.1.2 to bind 8.2.2pl5 (the FreeBSD port of > >bind 8.2.2pl5), and after the upgrade the NOTIFY's between ns1 and ns2 > >quit working properly (I have to manually issue an ndc reload ZONE to get > >the nameservers to sync).

I have an Adaptec 2940 SCSI card on the way, which seems to be more of a standard, but maybe that's not the problem.

What does that indicate? cd0 at ncr0 bus 0 target 2 lun 0 cd0: Removable CD-ROM SCSI2 device cd0: 10.0MB/s transfers (10.0MHz, offset 8) cd0: Attempt to query device size failed: NOT READY, Medium not present - tray c losed Put a CD in, and you can mount it just fine and use it.

The primary difference between the CD and pass drivers in terms of attach behavior is that the CD driver attempts to do a read capacity on the CDROM drive, but the pass driver attaches no matter what. The system shouldn't halt, though. That indicates a definite problem. > > I have double-checked the terminator, and tried other SCSI ids with no > > change. The drive appears to work fine in Windows.

Well, since you've already ordered a 2940, it'll be good to see what happens with that. The Adaptec driver is generally less buggy than the ncr driver. If you can, try out the 3.3 boot disk with the 2940, and see how that works as well. I think we fixed several CAM problems after 3.0 went out the door, so trying 3.3 would be a good thing. Have you tried different CDs in the drive? It could be that there is something about the CD you're using that makes the drive barf. This really sounds like a firmware issue of some sort with your CDROM drive, although I'll be more confident in saying that once you've tried the drive with an Adaptec controller.

I am running dhclient to connect to the net via my cable modem as they require. I run ipfw/natd on this machine to allow local systems outside access. I now want to run dhcpd for the subnets on local interfaces other than the one connecting to the cable modem. I started by reading the crab book. It states that all physically connected subnets must have a subnet entry in order for dhcpd to run. Since the connection to the cable modem doesn't know its subnet until run time I'm at a loss as to what to do. Is it even possible to learn the upstream address dynamically and be a dhcp server for downstream devices at the same time? I'm running FreeBSD-3.3-Release.

AFAIK, nothing has been done to -current or -stable yet to address these probelms yet, so no advisory has been issued saying that nothing has happened. There was a pgp signed post analysing the risks to -security a while ago including concerns about a new component in 8.2 that had a licensing issue, but no advisory has been issued.

Nedit is a cool thing, however it requires X. My old ms-dos background always makes me want Brief back. I'm certain it can't do everything Emacs (Escape-Meta-Alt-Control-Shift) does but the key shortcuts are mostly F* or Alt-'Letter'. I recently downloaded vital.com's Crisp 6.2 editor and its 100% Brief emulation seems to be just that, 100%. Albeit the LISP-ish macro language my Brief used is no more - can't say I miss it. Unfortunately the $150 is a bit steep, at least until I have some serious programming to do.

While the book talks about direction of traffic they hardly ever mention which interface to use. In our ipfw rules we can specify to filter traffic 'via fxp0' for example, but the book seems rarely interested in that. To prevent internal IPnumbers to come from the outside we specify: $fwcmd add deny all from ${inet}:${imask} to any in via ${oif} $fwcmd add deny all from ${onet}:${omask} to any in via ${iif} where inet/imask and oif are our internal net and netmask and outer interface, and onet/omask and iif are outer net, outer netmask and inner interface. This seems logical, but what about for exampel telnet (port 23); will a rule of $fwcmd add pass tcp from any to ${oip} 23 setup #oip = outer ip allow contact to telnetd from both of my interfaces, but not *through* my firewall? (i.e. *between* interfaces?) what about specifying interfaces in this case? If I only want my internal net to access telnetd do I have to set up a rule via vx0 (my 192.168-interface), and another rule for fxp0 (my 130.236-interface)? And does direction have its origin in the firewall, sitting between the two interfaces? So that telnet access from my internal net to external net is 'incoming' from vx0 to firewall and 'outgoing' from firewall to the rest of the world? In any case I have sysctl.inet.ip.forwarding=0, so that any traffic at all must trickle through my firewall.

Yes, it have! Try Alt-F1, Alt-F2, and so on. If You want to change the number of vtty`s see /etc/ttys and your own kernel configuration.

To a degree, yes. >If I have an > already > set up Linux box, can I simply change the kernel and stay with my old > programs? No. For a few reasons: 1) First and foremost, freebsd is NOT a kernel like linux, it is a complete system. There are no distros for fbsd but the official one. This is on of fbsd's strong points: just like only good code makes it into the linux kernel, only good code makes it into the fbsd distro. You can also be sure there would be no compatability probs ;) 2) Fbsd works best with UFS, linux uses EXT2. Maybe fbsd can work with the root filesystem as ext2 (it can do suprising things sometimes, that's why I say "maybe", but I don't think so). 3) It's recommended you use programs compiled for fbsd, you get the best results this way, even if the progs were originally intended for linux. Besides, you'd probably want to use the fbsd utils rather than GNU utils if you are running fbsd. 4) Most things don't work exactly the same way in fbsd and linux... that is, configuration won't work the same way, startup scripts aren't the same, and even elementary things like getty I don't think are the same. Well, I guess that with alot of hacking you might be able to get your linux box to run fbsd without losing your progs, though I don't think this is recommended. > Is FreeBSD better than Linux when working as an Internet server, or as > an > ordinary SAMBA or NFS/PC-NFS server on a local network?

Yep, though it's probably not what you want: don't upgrade. When the release was made, a whole lot newer version of gcc was available, and wasn't included for a reason: gcc 2.7.1.2 (or whatever it is) is the best cross between beinng latest and being good - gcc 2.8 introduced bugs that render it unusable for lots of tasks. 2.9 is no different. If you want a more modern compiler, use egcs, probably from ports.

Maybe you already had fvwm2 package installed so after selecting it in /stand/sysinstall installation took only a millisecond needed for updating /root/.xsession or whatever.

The documentation isn't very clear on this and it advises against it. Even with that option I was never quite able to get it working the way I'd like.

If you take a look at egcs FAQ then you'll find that egcs was derived from gcc 2.8.2 and starting from 2.95 it uses more aggresive optimization strategy. Linux kernel asm code violates some aliasing rules (according to egcs) which are in standard. I believe, this is a case for FreeBSD too. You can't use this compiler to compile kernel, but it's more robust, faster and supports exceptions, has a better optimization, supports namespaces, etc. >Cheers, > >Oren Sarig >sarig@bezeqint.net > > > >To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org >with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 25 8:30:53 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from thelab.hub.org (nat198.58.mpoweredpc.net [142.177.198.58]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EB3E914C15 for ; Thu, 25 Nov 1999 08:30:48 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from scrappy@hub.org) Received: from localhost (scrappy@localhost) by thelab.hub.org (8.9.3/8.9.1) with ESMTP id MAA88412; Thu, 25 Nov 1999 12:30:36 -0400 (AST) (envelope-from scrappy@hub.org) X-Authentication-Warning: thelab.hub.org: scrappy owned process doing -bs Date: Thu, 25 Nov 1999 12:30:35 -0400 (AST) From: The Hermit Hacker To: Oren Sarig Cc: Marc Wandschneider , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: latest gcc?

Unfortunately back then I didn't know any better. :) Annoyance was not the correct word when I first fired it up. It was more like an aptitude test for anger management class. It didn't help that my keys were not properly mapped either. To make a long story short, I didn't take to XEmacs at the time and Gnus was even more a mystery with many single key commands. I simply did not bother to put the time and effort into learning it, as I have done before for vi or anything else for that matter. Fast forward a few years and now I live within XEmacs. I read my mail, browse usenet, search the ldap servers, send/receive instant messages via AIM (tnt), fire up the coffee machine and most importantly edit files. Emacs is not an editor per-se. It is a scalable working environment and all that power comes at a price, a gradual learning curve. If you simply want to edit small rc files then even vim is "big, slow [and an] overkill". The topic however was a Programmers' Editor which XEmacs suits very well. Besides, a plain vanilla gvim doesn't really tip the scales on the light side either. On my box xemacs loads in at just about 6.5mb vs 4.5mb for gvim. The standard bundled vi loads in at about 1mb. [Note: This xemacs is compiled with all the graphic, sound and ldap libs.] Speaking of overkill. I would still recommend that most users start out with the bundled vi editor. It doesn't offer any of the extensions that VIM has but at least it will give you a base of knowledge that applies to other platforms. Starting with vim will make you more reliant on its specific features, just as x/emacs does, which are then useless on any boxes with don't have it installed. All in all, there is no wrong choice as each edits files correctly. They just differ in their approach and functionality. Choose whatever is most appropriate to your working needs and programming languages. /e Damon M.

So I'd like to boot from SCSI and use NT loader. Actually both 1) and 2) are active because of testing. I tried the solution reported on the new FAQs (those related also to version 3.x) using boot0 because of different disks, but for some reason I don't know nothing goes and after rebooting, instead of NT loader I saw FreeBSD boot loader ! Then I tried to use "bootpart" application: when I select FreeBSD entry from NT loader, NT starts instead of FreeBSD ! Well, does anyone has a similar problem or configuration ?

You would have found that XFree86 3.3.5 only has S3 Savage support for Linux. See http://www.xfree86.org/3.3.5/RELNOTES4.html#4 You can't just add the latest new hardware and expect support in some areas such as networking, SCSI cam support, and x-windows. The manufacturer will provide support with the card for certain OS'es, which means Windows and its derivatives and someone has to port it for the others. What I read is that S3 provided code for Linux. If the XFree86 people have the server code for Linux, they at least have what they need to get one ready for FreeBSD. However, since they didn't list a driver for FreeBSD, it would appear that you have the choice of replacing the card, porting the Linux server to FreeBSD, or being patient while the x-server support for FreeBSD is developed. How long can you handle 640x480? If you are like me, not very long :). I maintain that you can't call it windows or x-windows at 640 x 480 because you only have room for one window.

But linux has a different structure for the procfs. Therefor, if a prog needs to read some info from the kernel and uses the /proc fs, and it's a linux app, it's trying to read some info the linux kernel exports. the thing is, fbsd doesn't neccesarily export the same info, and if it does, it's probably not in the same file, and maybe not all in a single file or alone in a file. This makes it difficult since you would have to modify the code to get it to read the info it needs from the correct location(s), which means lots of programming and tweaking :) You should probably try something intended for fbsd, not linux, if you don't feel like programming. -- Oren Sarig sarig@bezeqint.net ----- Original Message ----- From: Tommy Forrest - KE4PYM To: Sent: Tuesday, November 23, 1999 3:13 AM Subject: Programming/FreeBSD and what not > I have finally found what amounts to be a 'proxy aware' identd program. > Unfortunately this app was written for Linux.

This will give you the previous non-trivial command in the minibuffer. Repeated m-p will go further back in the command history, m-n will go forward.

A vi(1) user trying emacs(1) for the first time - http://www.ukug.freebsd.org/~mark/badday.mpg :) > The real question is: what do newbies think? Anybody want to > comment? OK, I'll comment. Since this emacs v. vi thing has reared it's head again I used emacs instead of vi all day today (I even renamed vi, and symlinked it to emacs to force myself). After the first couple of hours finding my way around (much use of C-h) I got quite productive with it. The biggest difference I had to adjust to was the fact that it doesn't have a command mode, any non Ctrl-, Meta-, Shift-, Esc- chars you type go into the document, but once I got used to that it wasn't so bad. One thing that I found puzzling is that several features that I would consider basic editing requirements, especially for coding, are very well hidden, for example: No apparent way to repeat the last command/editing action. ``goto-line'' doesn't have a default key-binding! When a compiler reports errors/warnings it gives the line number so being able to find it is essential (``G'' in vi). Indenting is a big mystery. OK, when in C-mode it will auto-indent, but for non-code text it doesn't seem to work. This e-mail is done in emacs and indenting this paragraph and the one above I found impossible to do other than manually. The first line of each was started with a TAB but no way could I make emacs indent the subsequent lines to match (``:se ai'' will do it automatically in vi, and if you later edit it and mess it up then ``!}fmt'' will clean it up). I tried selecting the paragraph and then Edit->Fill, but all it did was split it into lines ~75 chars but only the first line was indented! (the ``goto-line'' paragraph above). Also, it's far from obvious how to change the indentation of a block of text, this paragraph for instance. In vi, just put the cursor on the first line and ``>}''. However, I will stick with it, practice makes perfect, or so they say :) Do you know of a "Emacs for vi users" guide do you (preferably on-line)? > Also, Brooks, have you *used* Emacs? Recently?

Upon restart everything seems to get init'd correctly (even new tape drive) but as its just about to get me at a prompt, I see: cp: /var/run/_motd no such file or directory init: can't exec 'getty' /usr/libexec/getty' for port /dev/ttyv0: No such file or directory . . . thru ttyv7 Every 30 seconds, these will repeat again, into infinity it seems. If i go back to kernel.old or kernel.GENERIC then I keep getting the same errors. I could find no helpful information to this problem in the handbook or in mailing list archives. I just rebooted my system last night and got in with no problems. I find this particularly troubling because it fails with kernel.old and kernel.GENERIC. I appreciate the helpful responses I got to my tape drive queries - thanks again for the help. thanks!! -terry ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 25 12:11:29 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from corinth.bossig.com (corinth.bossig.com [208.26.239.66]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EB36B14DF2 for ; Thu, 25 Nov 1999 12:11:22 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kstewart@3-cities.com) Received: from revolution.3-cities.com (revolution.3-cities.com [204.203.224.155]) by corinth.bossig.com (Rockliffe SMTPRA 3.4.2) with ESMTP id ; Thu, 25 Nov 1999 12:17:35 -0800 Received: from 3-cities.com (kenn1162.bossig.com [208.26.241.162]) by revolution.3-cities.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id MAA07630; Thu, 25 Nov 1999 12:10:31 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <383D97B5.6DF40391@3-cities.com> Date: Thu, 25 Nov 1999 12:10:29 -0800 From: Kent Stewart Organization: BOSSig X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (WinNT; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Mark Ovens Cc: Greg Lehey , Brooks Davis , James A Wilde , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Programmers' editor?

I still chuckle when I see it. Various comments have been added to it such as one BSOD too many on windows and etc. I thought the comment about getting out of emacs the first time without rebooting was at the same level.

I'd look on that as a plus. Two points to be made here: 1. If you want to enter any "special" characters, use c-q in front. 2. c-_ (control underscore; you'll normally use the shift key) will back out the last thing you entered. > One thing that I found puzzling is that several features that I would > consider basic editing requirements, especially for coding, are very > well hidden, for example: > > No apparent way to repeat the last command/editing action. I mentioned this before: m-p. In many cases, though, that's not the way you'd do it in Emacs. For example, in vi I'd use . to repeat an insert or a change command; in Emacs I'd do the insert and then copy the text to the kill ring (m-w), and then insert it elsewhere with c-y. The replace commands in Emacs are *much* more versatile, so I never find a need for . in this context. > ``goto-line'' doesn't have a default key-binding!

Emacs has a different approach to this issue. Each buffer has a mode assigned to it. When you edit C text, you automatically get the c-mode loaded. With text, by default, you get fundamental, which doesn't know much about indenting. The first thing you can do is load letter-mode, which will do what you want to do. It also modifies the way m-q (fill paragraph) works. > Also, it's far from obvious how to change the indentation of a block > of text, this paragraph for instance.

When I was first a CS student at the university, there were exactly two kinds of undergrads. 1. those who had somebody show them vi first 2. those who had somebody show them emacs/jove first I fell into the latter. When I first started up VI once, I panicked, ^Z and kill -9'd the damn thing. Now I can use it to do basic editing tasks. Those who first learned vi were even worse off with emacs, because the macros on our system didn't even let ^Z work on the thing -- they usually ended up logging off or killing a window. now, what I REALLY want is code colouring again. marc.

The operators at work had a "duck" cartoon that had a duck with a big mallot that was getting ready to smash a PC keyboard. The caption went some like "Patience my a__, I want to kill something." At some point concerns for being PC (politically correct) probably overcame being funny and the cartoon came down. > Speaking of overkill.

This goes back to 1988 when we got the Cray. They were astonished that we wanted to destroy their fine machine by adding VI. The system took a hit when 60 or so people were running vi. When we benchmarked it we had a couple of SUN's running emulated user sessions on the Cray. The program would send a series of commands to the user's session on the Cray and then measure the response time. The users sessions would extend the benchmark time by a few percentage points but not by many. They had a deadline and it could make it tight. That was when they found that caching the write's was 1/3 of the throughput for our benchmark. They effectively increased the load by 50% by write behind caching. Later, we decided that vi was a rite of passage to using Unix Systems. If you knew the basic dozen vi commands, you could be dropped onto almost any Unix system and do something useful. You wouldn't be a local super star but you could do useful work. Emacs wasn't on many of the systems and the "badday.mpg" that Mark's message pointed to was close to being true if you had to switch editors. Some people I know did all of their editing on PC's because they had KEdit on them. Kent > > All in all, there is no wrong choice as each edits files correctly.

Well, sorry, I don't know if I catched your questions, but I forgot to say I can boot from SCSI and run NT loader.

Some time ago I tried to get Mutt to open a window in an already running instance of Nedit, but ran into the problem, that Mutt returns as soon as the edit command exits. If you reuse an existing instance of a running editor, the command to fire up a new window will (in the case of Nedit at least) exit right away, which naturally confuses Mutt. If anyone has a solution to that problem, I'd appreciate to know how you do it. And please don't drag Nedit into the editor discussion, there will likely be enough postings in this thread without it :) > Greg /Niels Chr. -- Niels Christian Bank-Pedersen, NCB1-RIPE.

I added that bit to the FAQ, based on information in a thread here on -questions, "Booting FreeBSD with Win NT" ~16 June 1999. I use boot1 for the NT loader as my NT and FreeBSD are on the same disk, so boot0 *should* work for you. Might be worth trying boot1 instead. If that doesn't work then I can't think of anything else.

What's there? I seem to remember that System V STREAMS can sometimes do things like this. BTW, for normal ping packets and 33.6 or 56 kb/s, these are *very* slow times.

Now cd to /usr/ports/editors/staroffice51a. as root run make all. Next run X as root and run make install in the port directory. Install StarOffice to /usr/local/Office51. Once that is done run "make post-install" also as root. Now run X as the user which you normally use. Run "make install-user" in the ports directory. StarOffice should now be ready to run.

Mark - I'm sitting here sipping a pint and scratching my head over this. I'm wondering aloud why you'd be wanting to lose vi in favour of emacs. (?) First off, vi works well and most of us who use it, for whatever reason, have significant chunks of time invested in getting the console to stop beeping at us! Secondly, I once heard a very convincing argument for learning and using vi. If you get hired to work on a unix box, no matter what the implementation, it will have vi. Not so emacs, at least not immediately. I'm so used to vi (not claiming proficiency tho) that I make it the default editor for email on the servers on my network. Got tired of PICO complaining everytime I tried to go to command mode...or execute various commands when I've forgotten where I was. ;-) > PERL has been described as "the duct tape of the Internet" > and "the Unix Swiss Army chainsaw" Yes - quite true. For those of us who are incurable shell scripters, as opposed to programmers, perl has the look and feel of C but we can still manage to get something done! BTW, I once thought about complaining to Larry Wall that Perl doesn't have an application development environment (except for the windows incarnation). Then it ocurred to me - it does. vi. ;-) Cheers, Tom Good ------- North Richmond Community Mental Health Center ------- Thomas Good MIS Coordinator Vital Signs: tomg@ { admin | q8 } .nrnet.org Phone: 718-354-5528 Fax: 718-354-5056 /* Member: Computer Professionals For Social Responsibility */ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Nov 25 17:33: 9 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from sasknow.com (h139-142-245-96.ss.fiberone.net [139.142.245.96]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 268E114BE6 for ; Thu, 25 Nov 1999 17:32:57 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from freebsd@sasknow.com) Received: from localhost (freebsd@localhost) by sasknow.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id TAA01612 for ; Thu, 25 Nov 1999 19:32:55 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from freebsd@sasknow.com) Date: Thu, 25 Nov 1999 19:32:55 -0600 (CST) From: Ryan Thompson To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Funny root device mount panics on new IDE install w/SCSI 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 Tried an install of 3.3-19991124-STABLE today, and had some problems. (Not sure if this is specific to my -STABLE or not, but I've never seen anything like this before). Installed selected distributions over NFS to an IDE drive (wd0). The install seemed to go quite well. (And quickly, over a 100Mb/s LAN :-) But, when I went to boot into my new system, my configured kernel came up, recognized wd0, and the rest of my devices including a SCSI drive on da0... And gave me the following error: changing root device to wd1s1a changing root device to wd1a error 6: panic: cannot mount root (2) ... then proceeded to the automatic reboot sequence. I don't even HAVE anything on wd1... So why would the kernel try and start a filesystem there? I tried physically disabling my SCSI adapter and rebooting. Wouldn't you know, my root device was then mounted on wd0s1a, and FreeBSD came up fine. Can anyone hazard a guess as to why adding SCSI drives should affect the numbering of IDE drives?

If you want to use local usernames with upper case characters, add the following line in your `sendmail' configuration file (in the directory /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/cf/cf): define(`LOCAL_MAILER_FLAGS', `rmn9u') N.B. Add it _before_ the line `MAILER(local)'! If you haven't got this file, edit /etc/sendmail.cf, search the line which begins with Mlocal and insert one character `u' after `F='. It should work.

So you get what's already there, which is probably 3.2-RELEASE; so you've been "upgrading" to the release you already have installed. 2) Your upgrade is okay but you have two sets of sources, and you're building your kernel from an old set. (People have actually done this....) The file that holds the version info will be in /usr/src/sys/conf/newvers.sh, I think. It should say 3.3 if you've gotten the right stuff.

I've mentioned this before: Set your editor to gnuclient and it will do what you want (export EDITOR=gnuclient). You can also do this on the commandline, of course $ gnuclient /etc/passwd You need to load gnuserv in your .emacs file.

And, to repeat myself. I see no real use trying to learn too much of Emacs' native editing if there is viper available for those used to vi. At least me, I'm so much more productive using things like command repetition, things like "cfX", "dtY" and so on. What one probably should do with viper, is set expert level to 5 so one can get at the Emacs keys and tweak a couple of other things to ones taste. There's an excellent Info package coming with viper that explains everything.

Some of the extensions of vim over the Joy/Horton vi have pendants in nvi, like multiple buffers / splitted screens, ruler, filename completion (which works better than in vim, imho) and (admittedly not very verbose) help (looks more like the builtin command overview in vim 3.0 did). The difference is mostly that nvi aims to be an exact reimplementation of the original vi plus some few useful extensions (if you read the source you will find many comments that discuss vi vs. posix behaviour and explain the decision made by Mr. Bostic for nvi) while vim is more like a feature vault, trying to satisfy the many wishes users bring in from their experience with other editors. mkb To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 26 1:19:10 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from lucifer.bart.nl (lucifer.bart.nl [194.158.168.74]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8F07114FAD for ; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 01:19:03 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from asmodai@lucifer.bart.nl) Received: (from asmodai@localhost) by lucifer.bart.nl (8.9.3/8.9.3) id KAA82652; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 10:18:55 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from asmodai) Date: Fri, 26 Nov 1999 10:18:55 +0100 From: Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven To: "James A.

I got the newest driver from cyclades but there was verry little in the way of how to install it in the package. I have looked for a how to or faq that explains what to do but no luck so far. I need to know what to put in the kernel for options and device. FreeBSD 3.3 With the driver installed as per the limited instructions from cyclades the os now knows there is something new... Its listed as cz0 under misc UNKNOWN!! When i do a boot -c to set the irq from the reported 9 to 5 it doesnt find it at all.???? So i have guessed from what i have been able to read so far that a kernel rebuild with options and a device line are called for. I tried it with options COM_MULTIPORT device cz0 what else should be in there if anything? The card is pci, and there are no errors when i do make, looks like the kernel is ok with what i have so far? Thanks for any help...

A solution that works is to use OSBS in the /tools directory on the cd or in the ports (I believe). You will need a dos boot disk to install the boot loader. Just read the README's. Messing with the NT bootloader is a big pain, so I just would avoid it if possible. You should then be able to jump either to the NT Loader or to your fbsd kernel. I did it this way with my multi-boots as I thought I still needed that other stuff on the same machine. The boot loader OSBS isn't very pretty (you only see it 5 seconds a year with fbsd anyway), and a little scary the first time, but there are provisions to backup the boot sector, so don't forget to do that first. It's really almost too simple. Good luck with your install. Oh, by the way, the boot loader needs to be on the first boot drive, which ever that happens to be, OSBS doesn't care. -- Yours truly, Shaun D.

Look into /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC there you will find: # To make an SMP kernel, the next two are needed #options SMP # Symmetric MultiProcessor Kernel #options APIC_IO # Symmetric (APIC) I/O # Optionally these may need tweaked, (defaults shown): #options NCPU=2 # number of CPUs #options NBUS=4 # number of busses #options NAPIC=1 # number of IO APICs #options NINTR=24 # number of INTs I just uncommented the two first options and recompiled the kernel. At the next boot both processors came up. With the 'top' command you'll have an extra column indicating which CPU is doing what. My motherboard TYAN 1669(?) needed its BIOS updated, but all was easy after that.

Furthermore, after booting the generic single-cpu kernel, you can run `mptable' (in `/usr/sbin') to view some parameters for your board which may be useful for configuring the SMP kernel.

I am a FreeBSD convert from Linux. I am accustomed to unpacking and building new packages on Linux in the /usr/local/src directory. Where is the equivalent directory in FreeBSD? On another note, after building a new kernel for FreeBSD (which by the way is much easier to do in FreeBSD than Linux), I noticed it was trying to load /boot/kernel.conf which I'm guessing is created by default and loaded by /boot/loader.conf. I could not find in info from the Complete FreeBSD book or man pages on the values that can be created in /boot/kernel.conf. Would someone point me in the right direction as to where I can find some info about this file? I do not subscribe to the questions mailing list, so please respond back to be personally.

I don't think documenting all the variables would be a good idea, anyway. They are just shell-script variables, and they're only meaningful in scripts within /etc; it's not hard to track what they do. This one drives a mostly-undocumented (and rightfully so, in my own opinion) sysctl. Be well.

One more question and i'll leave you alone...=) Is there a way to get it so I can test all of my redirects and stuff without actually being outside the firewall? In other words, is there some way, from inside the firewall, I can check to make sure everything's working? If I attempt to access any of my servers at my domain from inside, I get a timeout and nothing works. If i'm outside the firewall, from another ISP, I can get to any of them. Unfortunately, this only happens when i'm not here working, but somewhere else. Kind of a pain to goto the library or somewhere to test here. Ideas? Help? TIA!

Create a font file under /usr/share/syscons/fonts. The format is very simple; one bit per screen pixel. So, since all fonts are 8 pixels wide, one byte == one line, with varying numbers of lines per character (8, 14 or 16). I actually wrote a couple of *very* rough programs for editing syscons fonts, though there may be better ones available. fontdump will dump a font file to a human readable form, and fontmake reads the human readable format after you've edited it, and write it as a font file. Both read from the file specified by argv[1], write to standard output. Note that the files under /usr/share/syscons/fonts are uuencoded, you'll need to uudecode it before running fontdump on it, and you may as well uuencode your new font before putting it in /usr/share/syscons/fonts. Run something like, $ cp /usr/share/syscons/fonts/iso-8859-2-8x16.fnt . $ uudecode iso-8859-2-8x16.fnt $ fontdump iso-8859-2-8x16 > newfont $ (edit newfont as needed, it should be obvious what the format is.) $ fontmake newfont > iso-8859-9-8x16 Then just copy your iso-8859-9-8x16 file to /usr/share/syscons/fonts and tell the system to use it with vidcontrol. Of course, it may well be that someone has already created the font you need. It may also be worth send-pr'ing your font so it can be included with FreeBSD for other Turkish users. > vlady@school.digsys.bg > > > Vladimir > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message -- PERL has been described as "the duct tape of the Internet" and "the Unix Swiss Army chainsaw" - Computer Shopper 12/99 ________________________________________________________________ FreeBSD - The Power To Serve http://www.freebsd.org My Webpage http://ukug.uk.freebsd.org/~mark/ mailto:mark@ukug.uk.freebsd.org http://www.radan.com --TakKZr9L6Hm6aLOc Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="fontdump.c" #include #include #include #include #include #include #include void usage(); void font_dump(FILE *, int); int main(int argc, char **argv) { FILE *fp; struct stat sb; int size; if (getopt(argc, argv, "") != -1) usage(); argc -= optind; argv += optind; if (argc != 1) usage(); if ((fp = fopen(*argv, "r")) == NULL) err(1, "%s", *argv); if (fstat(fileno(fp), &sb) < 0) err(1, "fstat"); if (sb.st_size == 16 * 256) size = 16; else if (sb.st_size == 14 * 256) size = 14; else if (sb.st_size == 8 * 256) size = 8; else errx(1, "unknown font size"); font_dump(fp, size); return (0); } void font_dump(FILE *fp, int size) { int ch, li, d, bit; for (ch = 0; ch < 256; ch++) { printf("- %c ----\n", isprint(ch) ? ch : ' '); for (li = 0; li < size; li++) { d = getc(fp); if (d == EOF) errx(1, "unexpected EOF"); for (bit = 7; bit >= 0; bit--) if (d & (1 << bit)) printf("#"); else printf(" "); printf("\n"); } printf("--------\n"); } } void usage() { fprintf(stderr, "usage: fontedit font\n"); exit(1); } --TakKZr9L6Hm6aLOc Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="fontmake.c" #include #include #include #include #include #include #include void usage(); void font_make(FILE *); int main(int argc, char **argv) { FILE *fp; if (getopt(argc, argv, "") != -1) usage(); argc -= optind; argv += optind; if (argc != 1) usage(); if ((fp = fopen(*argv, "r")) == NULL) err(1, "%s", *argv); font_make(fp); return (0); } void font_make(FILE *fp) { char line[20]; int byte, bit, size; size = 0; while (fgets(line, sizeof line, fp) != NULL) { if (strlen(line) > 4 && strcmp(line + 4, "----\n") == 0) { if (size != 0 && size != 8 && size != 14 && size != 16) errx(1, "bad file format, wrong size"); else { size = 0; continue; } } size++; byte = 0; for (bit = 0; bit < 8; bit++) if (line[bit] == '\n') /* end of line, assume all spaces */ break; else if (line[bit] == '#') byte |= 1 << (7 - bit); else if (line[bit] != ' ') errx(1, "bad file format, " "bad character %c (%x)", line[bit], line[bit]); putc(byte, stdout); } if (size != 0 && size != 8 && size != 14 && size != 16) errx(1, "bad file format, wrong size %d (at end)", size); } void usage() { fprintf(stderr, "usage: fontedit font\n"); exit(1); } --TakKZr9L6Hm6aLOc-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 26 10:38:37 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from sawmill.grauel.com (sawmill.grauel.com [199.233.104.39]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 614651511D for ; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 10:38:33 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from rjk@sawmill.grauel.com) Received: (from rjk@localhost) by sawmill.grauel.com (8.9.3/8.8.8) id NAA65839; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 13:40:04 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from rjk) From: "Richard J.

I installed FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE on CD-ROM when it came out. Now I would like to upgrade to FreeBSD 3.3-STABLE. I looked at the handbook and your own chapter 19, but didn't see any mention of the utility of: cd /usr/src make update In fact, I can't find any documentation about this target anywhere, other than the one-line description in the Makefile, which indicates that it updates sources via CVS. Does this mean I could just periodically 'make update' instead of the other, lengthier procedures? -Mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 26 10:42:39 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 69CC11545F for ; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 10:42:31 -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 LAA14163; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 11:10:06 -0800 (PST) Date: Fri, 26 Nov 1999 11:10:06 -0800 (PST) From: Alfred Perlstein To: The Hermit Hacker Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: pine and 'rsh connection' to IMAP daemon ...

I'm not sure what you want to do here. Use a debugger for disassembly. But what do you really want to do? And what do you mean by 'syscall'? The userland stub function, the interface, or the kernel code which implements the call? In any case, since we have the source code to all of it, it's not clear that there's much to be gained by disassembling them.

GDB disassembles stuff. As far as I know, that functionality works. What do you mean when you say that you ``couldn't use the disassemble command''. Why couldn't you?

I'm going to add to my own message, because I've done some digging since I sent the original message. vnconfig is in /usr/sbin/. Which means (I'll assume) that "vnconfig -a" cannot be called before "mount -a" is called. So now my problem becomes, can anyone think of a way to easily mount my vnX devices after vnconfig -a has been called. I can add the appropriate lines to an rc file if I had an idea of how to go about doing this. My current problem is that I have the entries in my /etc/fstab, but I have to leave marked "noauto". If I do not the system will fail to boot with a "Filesystem mount failed, startup aborted" error message. Would there be a downside to copy/moving /usr/sbin/vnconfig to /sbin/vnconfig, and then I could add the appropriate lines to an rc file?

I want to set up a system with two servers. One to handle web/ftp and one to handle email. My question is fairly simple, I think. I want to configure the servers so that I only have to add users to one server, but be able to grant them the services of both servers. I was reading through the man pages for YP, and that looks like it will work, I just wanted to make sure that YP is the best system to use to centralize the password database.

Symbols that begin with periods are used for various things, some of which are NOT things that you can set breakpoints on (or disassemble, or whatever). For example ELF *section names* (e.g. .text) begin with periods, but section names are not things that you can set breakpoints on. Some versions of gcc (for some targets) also create regular symbols which begin with periods, but these are just so-called ``local'' symbols. Depending upon the assembler in use, they may or may not still be known in the binary object files and/or in the final executable file. If you have loaded something into gdb and then disassembled a part of it and if you see some symbol in the disassembled code that begins with a period, then you _may_ perhaps be able to get its address by just doing: print &.foo (where `.foo' is the symbol), but then again, maybe not. Actually, I think that gdb will probably not allow you to do this because its built-in expression parser only understands higher-level language syntax (e.g. for C and/or C++) and in either C or C++, the expression &.foo has invalid syntax. So you may just have to find the address of whatever ``normal'' symbol most directly preceeds the symbol you care about and then figure out the distance from that symbol to the symbol you do care about. Then you can get the address of the symbol that you do care about by doing something like: print &preceeding_symbol+0x7e where `0x7e' is the distance between `preceeding_symbol' and the symbol that you actually care about, e.g. `.foo'. And before you ask, yes, it *is* a bummer that the assembler accepts names (for symbols) that gdb cannot deal with, but you've got to remember that gdb is first and foremost a ``source level'' debugger (for C, C++, etc.)... not an assembly level debugger. P.S. Actually, symbols with periods probably shouldn't even be showing up in your gdb-disassembled output *or* in your object file symbol tables. If they are, then this may perhaps just be due to a small glitch in the specific versions of the FreeBSD assembler that you are using.

This problem only appears to be in Eterm, hence the subject. Most any program that uses stdin for input after it's initial invocation will not use enter to accept input when using Eterm. The shell in use doesn't seem to matter, only Eterm. i.e. sh, tcsh, zsh and Xterm Konsole and GNOME Terminal have all been looked over. It only happens at command line prompts, so vi(1) and pine(1) and other programs that use their own input methods work fine. my output looks like this: xavier 2:10pm ~> su s/key 98 lo81206 Password:load: 2.72 cmd: su 76924 [ttyin] 0.01u 0.02s 0% 604k I can get input through, but only by using ^D^D. I've tried setting different TERMs for possible differences. So, my question is: what can I do to get Eterm to accept ^M. Is it a console setting, environment variable or what? I could switch to using a different Xterm, but I do so love purty pictures :). salut sCOTT To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 26 12:35:53 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from rjk191.rh.psu.edu (RJK191.rh.psu.edu [128.118.193.182]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5D3AC156C3 for ; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 12:35:33 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ray@rjk191.rh.psu.edu) Received: from localhost (ray@localhost) by rjk191.rh.psu.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id PAA28961; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 15:32:54 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from ray@rjk191.rh.psu.edu) Date: Fri, 26 Nov 1999 15:32:54 -0500 (EST) From: RAY Reply-To: rjk191@psu.edu To: "Scott A.

The solution is to put the line stty status ^T into your shell's startup file. Also, I noticed that the port of Eterm was updated last night. Possibly it was fixing this, I haven't checked yet. -- Ray Kohler To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 26 12:37:12 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from peedub.muc.de (peedub.muc.de [193.149.49.109]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E7D68158A4 for ; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 12:37:00 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from garyj@peedub.muc.de) Received: from peedub.muc.de (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by peedub.muc.de (8.9.3/8.6.9) with ESMTP id VAA14853; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 21:34:41 +0100 (CET) Message-Id: <199911262034.VAA14853@peedub.muc.de> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.1.0 09/18/1999 To: Mark Ovens Cc: Michael Elbel , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Programmers' editor?

Before be too pedantic you should learn a little bit more about gcc and egcs (sorry for sarcasm). GCC is something like a "all in one" compiler. As a matter of fact, g++ is a wrapper around gcc. Moreover, you can use gcc to compile c++ code - just set all options in a right way and you are ready - it's about 30 options - and g++ does it for you. there is Ada, Fortran, Pascal and Java compilers in gcc (yes, you can compile java programs to a native code and it will run faster). All of them use the same optimizer and code generator. Yes, they have different syntax, and authors of a corresponding compiler provide gramma in flex/bison "notation". It's possible to right your own compiler using gcc stuff. It's not easy, but it definitly doable. In my life, I did it a couple of times - not with gcc, but with something very similar - using intermidiate language. Problem with Linux and, in my opinion, like i mentioned in my previous letter, FreeBSD, lies in optimizer - not in gcc or g++ analizer. There are very specific aliasing rules defined by standard. and newer version of gcc optimizer starts to take advantages of them. Old one accepted all this stuff and generated some code. Unfortunatelly, it worked like author of this code expected it to work. I said unfortunatelly because if it didn't work like author expected it to work then author would fix it. But this is a totally diferent issue. >mkb To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 26 13:13:24 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from smtp-out1.bellatlantic.net (smtp-out1.bellatlantic.net [199.45.39.156]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BAA7514CA9 for ; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 13:13:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from j_mckitrick@bigfoot.com) Received: from bigfoot.com (client-151-204-197-172.bellatlantic.net [151.204.197.172]) by smtp-out1.bellatlantic.net (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id QAA02138 for ; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 16:11:16 -0500 (EST) Message-ID: <383EF7C9.F169E2FB@bigfoot.com> Date: Fri, 26 Nov 1999 16:12:42 -0500 From: Jonathon McKitrick X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (X11; U; FreeBSD 3.3-STABLE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: games Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Are there any really good animation quality games out there that are available as FreeBSD ports?

I set "editor" to "emacsclient" in ~/.muttrc and changed ~/.emacs to ``(server-start nil)'' and it works :) I had to remove ``(load-library "gnuserver")'' though as it just caused errors (even when changed to "start-server" or "emacsserver"), but works without it.

You can put your commands in a script to be executed on boot in /usr/local/etc/rc.d. It needs to have the characteristics of any shell script--#!/bin/sh as the first line, and permissions that make it executable. Mine seem to be owned root:wheel. Alternatively, you can put such commands in /etc/rc.conf.local, which will be read if it exists (/etc/defaults/rc.conf includes instructions to read this file if it exists). > My current problem is that I have the entries in my /etc/fstab, but I have > to leave marked "noauto". If I do not the system will fail to boot with a > "Filesystem mount failed, startup aborted" error message. I'd take them out of fstab. You don't want a boot failing for this kind of reason. > Would there be a downside to copy/moving /usr/sbin/vnconfig to > /sbin/vnconfig, and then I could add the appropriate lines to an rc file? Yes. As you would see by running ldd /usr/sbin/vnconfig, vnconfig depends on some libraries; so the file system containing the libraries needs to be loaded for it to run. You could statically compile it so it does not depend on anything, but then it will take more memory and possibly produce some other problems.

When was your ports tree last updated? Which GNOME-related ports do you have installed? Is this "Monte Carlo" program part of the ports tree? The primary reason that I ask is this: > Does anybody know what it means ? > file /usr/local/include/zvt/zvtterm.h belongs to gnomelibs-1.0.53 gnomelibs installs itself under /usr/X11R6, and thus the installed zvtterm.h include file will be here: anaconda 30% ls -l /usr/X11R6/include/zvt/zvtterm.h -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 9624 Nov 8 15:47 /usr/X11R6/include/zvt/zvtterm.h anaconda 31% ls -l /usr/local/include/zvt/zvtterm.h ls: /usr/local/include/zvt/zvtterm.h: No such file or directory .. which all suggests a number of fairly big localised changes to your machine. If the thing you're trying to compile is already a port, I would suggest cleaning out any leftover turds, recvsupping, and trying again, possibly to the level of a fresh clean install of the relevant ports. If it isn't already a port, feel free to drop me a private email as to where I can find the beast, and I'll see about hacking it into submission as a port. -aDe -- Ade Lovett, Austin, TX.

But you can do in a script whatever you can do at the command line. And from /usr/local/etc/rc.d, you can do it after all the disks are mounted. And then you don't need to compile vnconfig statically, which doesn't help you with automation anyway, as far as I can tell. > Just incase I feel like playing with this.

Two gripes. 1. When I do a 'make' in a ports directory, it attempts to download software but *never* finds it, not for a single port, and tells me to download it manually and put it in distfiles/. Why? I'd really like it to work like it's supposed to. 2. When I run X, everything looks fine, except for when I do opaque moves in my windowmanager (wmaker) or scroll up or down in an application. It's damn slow and choppy. Again, why? What do I fix and how? Thanks all in advance for your help. On a side note, I'm so pleased that my laptop finally works like it was designed. The pc card drivers work flawlessly when I suspend and resume. FreeBSD is the only OS I've used, from WinNT, Win9x, R H Linux, to Debian, to my custom built Linux. I could never get suspend resume to work correctly. You guys really have pcmcia and apm perfected for laptop PCs. I shall be the envy of my friend's whose suspend/ resume freezes their computer, screwed up their clocks, or broke their networking drivers. I will finally get huge uptimes on my laptop, a dream as yet unrealized. Thanks FBSD people, for knowing how to do it right. Let me know if it is that easy to get hardware support on my Hauppage BT848 TV card, my HP IDE/Atapi CD-Writer, or my parallel port scanner. Then I'll wipe my debian box and go with FBSD there too!

I would guess that this is an issue with the XFree86 Server's support for your video card ... sometimes it's just not opimized all that much, or there are problems with the video chipset that prevent it from working turbo well with their way of doing things ... you might want to post to an XFree86 newsgroup or mailing list and see if there are any suggestions there. marc.

I successfully installed a complete and functional diskless system. using FreeBSD 3.3. I found that the documentation is a little out of date and only works for old FreeBSD versions. Nevertheless, I wrote a log of what I did. Some of the things I did were mere brute force, but they worked. Now, I have some doubts... 1. I think I do not know how to mount the swap file. It seems to me that the kernel did it... but I do not know, "mount" does not report it as mounted when my client begins to work. 2. I had to use "rarpd" to be make my server "listen" to my client bootp request. This daemon is not documented in the articles about "diskless" in "/usr/share/doc/en/articles". 3. "rc.diskless" make a *lot* of rare things and I had to remove this file in my client's root file system to make my system work. Where may I find documenteation about these scripts? 4. I do knot know how to encrypt a password in the client's root file system before it starts for the first time. I guess "vipw -d ." can do it, but I need to have the encrypted password. I can copy the root's password from the "server" system... I think this is too complicated for a novice administrator. I have to set the root's password when the diskless system boots for the first time. 5. Using the "boot diskette" process, the kernel image in the diskless system has to be "AOUT". It cannot be "ELF" because the booting program in "/usr/src/sys/i386/boot/netboot" asks it so. I have not tried to do it with a network card with the booting ROM. 6. How can I create the "aliases" data base in the client's space? I mean, I'm using the FreeBSD bin distribution and I would like to prepare it completely. I cannot send the aliases database to the client's area. I have to create it until my system starts for the first time. Do you want to read my log? It is gzip-ed and attached to this mail. All your comments, corrections, suggestions, are welcome. I can also send you a Spanish version...

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello I have two PCs on ethernet. 386 (20MB RAM) with FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE and Olivetti laptop P133 (32MB) with win95 installed. (I plan to use Linux but still haven't manage to set up X and PCMCIA net) What annoys me now is the ftp download "speed" on local ethernet. Couple of hours ago I've downloaded 8MB file over the Internet (I use FreeBSD box as an inet gateway) Download time: 18 minutes over ISDN. But when I tried to copy it on the laptop using standard win95 ftp client, it was even slower than that - 24 minutes. I don't think that the hardware does not allow for higher throughput, upload from win95 laptop to FreeBSD box from the same ftp session took only 32 seconds! (280KB/sec) I don't know what is the problem neither how to find out.

Sorry. What I'm looking to be able to do is just add entries in /etc/fstab so that my vnX devices are automatically mounted on startup (w/o causing errors of course). I know I can just make a simple shell script that runs the specific mount commands, and I do know how to do that (although I'll admit I didn't even think of that at first). I would just like to be able to edit /etc/fstab and have the devices automatically mounted on startup. To me this should be an option. One would not tell a user to make a shell script to mount any other kind of filesystem, whether it be UFS, NFS, MFS, MSDOS, CD9660, etc... There is an option to start such things are vinum on startup as well. So, since I know why it cannot be done in the current system, I would like to be able to start working on a solution that would allow one to set a variable in /etc/rc.conf such as vnconfig_all="YES". I am by far not that experienced, but most replies to "I'd like to see this feature in FreeBSD" are "supply diffs". So I'd like to show that I actually put some effort and thought into this solution. Unfortunately I cannot put any work forward until I can figure out how to statically compile vnconfig. Can you (or anyone for that matter) be so kind as to point me in the right direction for this? I'm not asking for hand holding, just a pointer or two. Thank you, -Chris P.S. I really do appreciate your help thus far. > -----Original Message----- > From: Annelise Anderson [SMTP:andrsn@andrsn.stanford.edu] > Sent: Friday, November 26, 1999 5:56 PM > To: Christopher Michaels > Cc: FreeBSD Questions (E-mail) > Subject: RE: vnconfig on bootup? > > > > On Fri, 26 Nov 1999, Christopher Michaels wrote: > > > In other words, w/o making a script that explicitly mounts each mount > point, > > it can't be done.

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 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.

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.

This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake for this information Location of the sample files ____________________________ On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM). The 2.2.5 CD-ROM came out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM as a single gzipped tar file /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz.

These files are an early version of what is described in the book. I'll put up some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future. Thanks to Frank McCormick for drawing this to my attention. Chapter 8: Setting up X11 _________________________ For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical to distribute errata. You can download the PostScript version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps, or the ASCII version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt. No HTML version is available. Page xxxiv __________ Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add: In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents (sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh). With the exception of sh, they are all in the Ports Collection. I personally use the bash shell. This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard shell. The standard BSD shell is the C shell (csh), which has a fuller- featured descendent tcsh. In particular, the standard installation sets the root user up with a csh. See page 152 (in this errata) for details of how to change the shell. Page 3 General changes Page 11: Reading the handbook _____________________________ The CD-ROM now includes Netscape. Replace the last paragraph on the page and the example on the following page with: If you're running X, you can use a browser like netscape to read the handbook. If you don't have X running yet, use lynx. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. To install them, enter: # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-communicator-4.5.tgz or # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.8.1.1.tgz The numbers after the name (4.5 and 2.8.1.1) may change after this book has been printed. Use ls to list the names if you can't find these particular versions. Note that lynx is not a complete substitute for netscape: since it is text- only, it is not capable of displaying the large majority of web pages correctly. It will suffice for reading most of the handbook, however. Thanks to Stuart Henderson and for drawing this to my attention. Page 12: Printing the handbook ______________________________ The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete. Replace the section starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text: Alternatively, you can print out the handbook. You need to have the documentation sources (/usr/doc) installed on your system. You can find them on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name. To install them, first mount your CD-ROM (see page 175). Then enter: $ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook $ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook you may need to be root for this operation $ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook You have a choice of formats for the output: o ascii will give you plain 7-bit ASCII output, suitable for reading on a character-mode terminal. Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser. o latex will give you LATEX format, suitable for further processing with TEX and LATEX. o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing. o roff will give you output in troff source. You can process this output with nroff or troff, but it's currently not very polished. LATEX output is a better choice if you want to process it further. Once you have decided your format, use make to create the document. For example, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter: $ make FORMATS=ps This creates a file handbook.ps which you can then print to a PostScript printer or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222). Thanks to Bob Beer for drawing this to my attention. Page 45: Preparing floppies for installation _____________________________________________ Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page) with: The floppy set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start with bin. followed by two letters. These other files are all 240640 bytes long, except for the final one which is usually shorter. Use the MS-DOS COPY program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until you've got all the distributions you want packed up in this fashion. Copy each distribution into subdirectory corresponding to the base name--for example, copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on. Page 80 and 81 ______________ In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 5 General changes Page 88: setting up for dumping _______________________________ The example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf. This variable is no longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev. Page 92 _______ At the end of the section How to install a package add the text: Alternatively, you can install packages from the /stand/sysinstall Final Configuration Menu. We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71. When you start sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu by selecting Index, and then selecting Configure. Page 93 _______ Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add: Install ports when installing the system ________________________________________ The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all the ports. You can install it with the base system if you select the Custom distribution and include the ports collection. If you didn't install them at the time, use the following method to install them all (about 40 MB). Make sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter: Page 96 _______ Replace the example at the top of the page with: Instead, do: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # for i in *; do > ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i > done Page 6 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven and Francois Jacques for drawing this to my attention. Page 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%.

GCC is something like a "all in one" >compiler. As a matter of fact, g++ is a wrapper around gcc. Moreover, Well.. that's why I tagged the statement as pedantic; basically the "compiler" is of course the gcc software in its entirety. Technically speaking, the compiler driver gcc calls one of the three different Gnu compilers that come with FreeBSD (/usr/libexec/{cc1,cc1obj,cc1plus}, for the first pass of the C compiler, Objective C and C++ compiler, respectively), depending on what it was fed and what options it got passed. These compilers may share various stages of compilation (probably preprocessing, optimization and code generation backend) so it's certainly right that they're not independent. mkb To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 26 17:32:55 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from vinyl.sentex.ca (vinyl.sentex.ca [209.112.4.14]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E81E114EC2 for ; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 17:32:52 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mike@sentex.net) Received: from granite.sentex.net (granite-atm.sentex.ca [209.112.4.1]) by vinyl.sentex.ca (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id UAA17057; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 20:32:51 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from mike@sentex.net) Received: from ospf-wat.sentex.net (ospf-wat.sentex.net [209.167.248.81]) by granite.sentex.net (8.8.8/8.6.9) with SMTP id UAA14889; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 20:32:50 -0500 (EST) From: mike@sentex.net (Mike Tancsa) To: zeus@tetronsoftware.com ("Gene Harris") Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: popper log messages Date: Sat, 27 Nov 1999 01:32:50 GMT Message-ID: <383f3473.86606874@mail.sentex.net> References: In-Reply-To: X-Mailer: Forte Agent .99e/32.227 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On 26 Nov 1999 01:07:16 -0500, in sentex.lists.freebsd.questions you wrote: >I have recently begun to see the following message posted repetitively >in my /var/log/messages file: > >Nov 25 23:45:35 tetron02 popper[98540]: (v2.53) Unable to get >canonical name of >I searched qualcomm's site without any success.

OK, setenv FTP_PASSIVE_MODE did the trick, is there a file to edit where I won't have to set this manually when I reboot or is this something I have to do manually or what.

I host several domains on this box and have a few email users. For example, if I have the domains mydomain.org and anotherdomain.org and a user terry, I can make it so that terry@anotherdomain.org works, but terry@mydoomain.org fails. I do this by adding the following entries to /etc/mailvirtusertable: terry@anotherdomain.org terry terry@mydomain.org error:nouser No such user here However, I don't think this solution is scalable.

I have installed popper and sendmail. I am able to send mail between local users (root@localhost & dave@localhost) via Pine. I can telnet to smtp, pop3 and ftp and interact with each. Now that is issue has been tackled, I am in need of some help in regards to how to establish my users. 1. I do not want to grant ordinary mail users shell accouts or telnet access into the server. Only POP3 and FTP access into *their* homepage space. How do I do this? I assume it goes into which group your user belongs to, and despite scouring Greg Lehey's Complete FreeBSD, I can't determine which. 2. I do not want users eating up more than 5MB of mail, per box. How do I establish quotas? And finally, while of minor importance, I am coming up with a strange issue when sending mail with PINE. It can take up to 60 seconds or so before the SENDING 0% ] indicator changes over to confirmation that the message has been sent. I think it's trying to do some kind of name resolution, but it doesn't matter if I send mail to @localhost, @machine or to @machine.domain. Just strange.. Anyway, thank you very much in advance.

So, i'm trying to have my FreeBSD machine (moo.domain.com) act as my mail server, without much luck. Here's what I've got: I took the freebsd.mc, and added the line "MASQUERADE_AS(domain.com)" -- i want all mail to and from my domain to be from user@domain.com instead of user@host.domain.com. I also added EXPOSED_USER(root), just in case there were any problems. In my db.domain for my name server (also my FreeBSD machine named "moo"), I have the following: domain.com. MX 10 moo.domain.com. Now, the problem is that ANY incoming or outgoing mail to user@domain.com causes sendmail to print the following error: SAA00456: SYSERR(root): MX list for domain.com. points back to moo.domain.com. All outgoing mail bounces and all incoming mail gets sent to root. Does anybody have any idea what I'm doing wrong? I'm stumped. Thanks! marc.

I seem to remember tin and pine being the major problems, but they have long since been fixed. I've never seen this happen with cvsup, and loss of telnetd shouldn't even affect cvsup since it is not an interactive application anyway. As for the out of memeory issue, whenever the system runs out of RAM and swap, it will start killing processes. Usually the first process to die is the memory hog itself, which fixes the problem. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Nov 26 19:27:55 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from europe.std.com (europe.std.com [199.172.62.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 421EA1532A for ; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 19:27:51 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from lowell@world.std.com) Received: from world.std.com (lowell@world-f.std.com [199.172.62.5]) by europe.std.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id WAA27968; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 22:27:49 -0500 (EST) Received: (from lowell@localhost) by world.std.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id WAA15054; Fri, 26 Nov 1999 22:27:48 -0500 (EST) To: "Ryan Troy" , freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Reply-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: After making world References: From: Lowell Gilbert Date: 26 Nov 1999 22:27:48 -0500 In-Reply-To: "Ryan Troy"'s message of Fri, 26 Nov 1999 15:13:32 -0700 Message-ID: Lines: 9 X-Mailer: Gnus v5.5/Emacs 20.2 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG "Ryan Troy" writes: > After making world i get these errors all over my box > > ov 26 16:15:10 12 getty[40473]: tcgetattr /dev/ttyv7: Inappropriate ioctl > for device [etc.] Check the obvious first; you did remake all your devices, right?

These details amount to saying that a particular device node (say, vn0a) should be associated with a file, and that file should be mounted /here or /there or used as swap. And other optional details. So all you have to do is fill out /etc/vntab and run vnconfig -a from any convenient place, such as a script that runs on boot or is called on boot, as mentioned in the last message. I think that in the sense you are talking about, the device nodes are "configured" in that they're ready for use if they exist and vn has been compiled into the kernel. > I am by far not that experienced, but most replies to "I'd like to see this > feature in FreeBSD" are "supply diffs".

I think statically compiling vnconfig is entirely beside the point, utterly irrelevant, and is a consequence of a misunderstanding of what you want to accomplish. How are you going to mount a file as file system or swap from a partition that itself has not yet been mounted? Do you have vn in the kernel? Have you created the vn device nodes?

The second problem may not be > related to the first, but does anyone know why I get that /kernel error ? It's always a good idea to check the mail archives before posting questions. You can find a lot of information about your question there, but the short answer is that you need to increase the MAXUSERS value in your kernel and recompile it.

Then when the system boots, it returns the error: no /boot/loader invalid format Is there any solutions to this problem? Regards, d.

The NT box is a multi-homed host on the 10.0.0.0 net also with IP 212.38.131.194. All Win clients are using the NT box as their default gateway. The NT box' default gateway is the router, all outgoing traffic from any client goes to the NT box, then goes back on the same LAN to get to the router. All Windows clients surf the 'Net, EXCEPT my BSD. I added to the LAN a BSD box as client: (Host Address 10.0.0.xx Network Mask 255.255.255.0 GateWay 10.0.0.1) From the BSD box I can see the LAN (ping, telnet,ssh,samba,..etc.) but cant get outside the inet (cant surf the INet) My Questions: Is it possible to surf the inet from BSD, in a Windows based Network (NT-server), or i cant because all of the IP addresses in the network behind the NT machine, and its not providing NAT, in case "yes" how should i reconfigure my BSD box to resolve this?

The stallion driver in LINT only sets up the isa device. I tried adding a pci probe line to the kernel config with: device stl0 at pci? But that didn't work..... The stallion driver code that ships is an alpha release (0.0.5 or something I think) - I remember last year finding a later version of it, but can't remember where... The BSDI version won't compile (read - I can't get it to compile) ;-) so I'm assuming there are too many differences between the bsdi and *bsd kernel source. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions??

One more question and i'll leave you alone...=) Is there a way to get it so I can test all of my redirects and stuff without actually being outside the firewall? In other words, is there some way, from inside the firewall, I can check to make sure everything's working? If I attempt to access any of my servers at my domain from inside, I get a timeout and nothing works. If i'm outside the firewall, from another ISP, I can get to any of them. Unfortunately, this only happens when i'm not here working, but somewhere else. Kind of a pain to goto the library or somewhere to test here. Ideas? Help? TIA!

I just bought an IBM Deskstar DPTA-372730 27.3 GB UDMA/2 drive for my FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT system. However, I am having severe problems with the 19 GB slice I have created. I am using the ATA driver with my UDMA controller on my ASUS P2B-DS mainboard. The ATA driver keeps telling me there are "hard errors" when reading some certain sectors on the disk. fsck currently cannot check the slice, as it reports there are two sectors that cannot be read (fsck does not mark the slice as being clean, so I cannot mount the disk r/w). However, before there were once problems to unmount the disk on reboot (and therefore fsck check was enforced), I was able to use the slice just fine (even though the ATA driver reported those errors in the console). The other slices on the disk work fine so far. The ATA driver outputs the following in the console: ad0: status=51 error=84 ad_interrupt: hard error fsck reports the following: ** /dev/rad0s1g ** Last Mounted on /data ** Phase 1 - Check Blocks and Sizes CANNOT READ: BLK 18350144 CONTINUE? [yn] y THE FOLLOWING DISK SECTORS COULD NOT BE READ: 18350191, CANNOT READ: BLK 38274656 CONTINUE? [yn] y THE FOLLOWING DISK SECTORS COULD NOT BE READ: 38274713, ** Phase 2 - Check Pathnames ** Phase 3 - Check Connectivity ** Phase 4 - Check Reference Counts ** Phase 5 - Check Cyl groups 13387 files, 7898160 used, 11063158 free (11870 frags, 1381411 blocks, 0.1% fragmentation) ***** FILE SYSTEM STILL DIRTY ***** ***** PLEASE RERUN FSCK ***** I have tried formatting the whole partition with Windows and that worked fine. Then I used newfs to reinstall UFS on it (which went much too fast for actually formatting the disk), something like 30 seconds with FreeBSD compared to 20 minutes with Windows (note that using Windows I formatted the whole partition, whereas using FreeBSD I just newfs'ed the 19 GB slice). Is there a better way to actually check the slice for errors or do a "format" that does a verify on the formatted data? I'd like to know whether the disk really has some hard errors on it or if perhaps the filesystem or ATA driver cannot handle such big partition. I'd also like to know which testing tools can be used to check that. Thanks for your answers!

The problem is with the WordPerfect file you downloaded. You need the one that is called for in the wordperfect port, i.e., GUILG00.GZ, put that in /usr/ports/distiles and then in /usr/ports/editors/wordperfect do the make && make install. I had to download the current ports tree to get wordperfect to install correctly.

Once upon a time when i was using Windows 98 it was as simple as downloading a program, clicking 'optimize', and voila, it's now about 5 times as smooth/lagless as i've ever managed to get FreeBSD. I'm running 3.3-STABLE on a p166, 32MB ram, 1GB HDD. Connected to that, via a 'pppd' serial link, is a Windows 2000 machine. Both serial ports are at 115,200bps. The MTU/MRU setting in both ppp and pppd are 576 (which causes a problem for pppd which i'll discuss soon). Is there any way, apart from setting the MTU and MRU values in 'ppp' (i've set them to 576 - which seems to be a common, good number) - to decrease lag? When receiving data, lag rises to about 600-1000ms. When sending data, lag goes through the roof at ~1750ms. And strangely, when running cvsup, and even when it's only downloading, the lag is launched into orbit and sits at 2500ms MINIMUM. I thought that it might've been CPU usage doing this. A quick check reveals ~95% idle. This lag is present on both computers btw. So, any advice to lower this lag? Yes, i know 56k modems are slow, but it's still very possible to kill lag with say telnet and IRC, whilst i'm downloading via ftp at 5KB/s. I know i'm not going to get more than 5KB/s, i just want IRC and telnet to run smoother. I've done it with Windows 98 - even downloading 5 things at a time had no affect on anything else. Also, when the MTU of ppp0 is 576, FreeBSD keeps sending icmp "need to frag" packets to whatever sent me a packet that was supposedly too big. Here's a snippet from tcpdump: 00:47:52.999475 203.102.135.200.80 > 192.168.1.2.1142: P 1:645(644) ack 326 win 32120 (DF) (ttl 58, id 37803) 00:47:52.999753 210.84.240.102 > 203.102.135.200: icmp: 192.168.1.2 unreachable - need to frag (mtu 576) (DF) (ttl 255, id 51301) 00:47:53.089502 203.102.135.200.80 > 192.168.1.2.1141: P 1:610(609) ack 322 win 32120 (DF) (ttl 58, id 37804) 00:47:53.089700 210.84.240.102 > 203.102.135.200: icmp: 192.168.1.2 unreachable - need to frag (mtu 576) (DF) (ttl 255, id 51302) How do the packets get 644 or 609 bytes long? The MTU on tun0 is 576. Can't FreeBSD just fragment the packets and pass them through? I've looked everywhere for an option on this but to no avail.. BTW just a few configuration notes, i hope i cover them all: * i'm running ppp as 'ppp -nat'. i've only got one IP (which in the above example is 210.84.240.102) * ipfw is up and running, although it's only denying port 21, 23, and 25, and diverting port 113 to natd which then passes it on the windows machine. * 192.168.1.1 == freebsd.. 192.168.1.2 == windows. * the icmp frag packets don't appear on ppp0 at all when i use tcpdump. so i'm assuming that FreeBSD is creating them. I'm forced to change the MTU to 1500 which doesn't give me any of those frag errors. Considering that i'm only linked to FreeBSD via a 115,200bps serial cable, it's important that i get rid of lag on ppp0 too - which i was hoping i could do by setting the MTU down. It's only 12KB/s after all. Not a 100Mbps NIC. Thanks in advance.

I don't know whether I have an UDMA cable or not, but my other IBM drive (10.4 GB UDMA) I've used for one year now works fine on the same cable. I'll try using another cable then.

We did our own tests here on a BE-6, while they may not pass as "industry standard" tests, this is what we came up with: ABIT BE6 r1.00 / P2-400 / 128MB PC-100 Micron DFI P2XBL rD.1 / P2-400 / 128MB PC-100 Micron - Quantum Katana (KA) ATA-4 - Quantum Corona (CR) ATA-4 - Quantum ST UDMA33/ATA-2 - Quantum TM EIDE (PIO1-4) ----- ABIT board was using Highpoint-Tech HPT366 UDMA66 Controller (onboard) DFI was using Intel BX PCI-IDE controller (onboard) Quantum was chosen as they are the inventors of UDMA33/66 technology, thus making a good baseline choice. ----- First run through: Board Drive %CPU Sustained MB/s ========================================================= ABIT 18.2GB KA 7.4% 58.1 DFI 18.2GB KA 97.7% 7.1 ABIT 9.5GB CR 6.54% 58.4 DFI 9.5GB CR 96.4% 6.9 ABIT 6.4GB ST 6.89% 28.6 DFI 6.4GB ST 95.7% 5.8 ABIT 2.1GB EIDE 2.83% 13.9 DFI 2.1GB EIDE 90.5% 12.7 ========================================================= Each drive & board combination was tested 5 times, sequentially. The statistics for the HPT366 varied only on the CPU time, but never more then 0.2% upwards. The Intel-BX controller %CPU rose only 0.1% of first recorded value. As you can see even older drivers benefit from the ATA-66 interface, I think it's because on these ABIT boards the interface exists purely in PCI-space thus taking advantage of the PCI bus. The tests were conducted with a proprietary HDD benchmark from Ontrack (who's been around long enough that I'm satisfied they know what they're doing) Again, these are tests we conducted in-house in our labs but as I've seen the same results overall (give or take a percent or MB) with boards from Tyan, Soyo and ASUS .vs. the ABIT BE-6. The BP6 has the same controller so I think the tests should be valid in this context.

I am WELL aware of what "vnconfig" and "vnconfig -a" do and am having no troubles with the concept. I have 3 vnX devices currently "configured" and working properly. This is not my issue, never has been my issue, and I never implied or stated that it was my issue.

The mounting options in /etc/vntab only appear to work on specific filesystems, at least that appears to be my trouble at this point. In my case the "filesystems" in question are not UFS and using the mount options in the /etc/vntab file only generate errors. If I am missing an option here, please correct me. My "filesystems" are cd9660 format. When I use mount=, or mountro=, it returns an error to me. I don't have the error in front of me as I'm not at the system. I can come back with that at a later time. > I think that in the sense you are talking about, the device nodes are > "configured" in that they're ready for use if they exist and vn has > been compiled into the kernel. > I don't quite agree, but the definition of "configured" isn't what's in question in here anyway. > > > I am by far not that experienced, but most replies to "I'd like to see > this > > feature in FreeBSD" are "supply diffs".

How are you going to mount a file as file > system or swap from a partition that itself has not yet been mounted? > 1. It is not besides the point. And even if it is, it's my box, and my time, why hold back this information from me? I would like to know how to statically compile _anything_, all I'm asking is to be pointed in the right direction. If you have the information, I would greatly appreciate it, if you do not let me know and I'll look to other sources. I don't appreciate having the information held back 'for my own good', and this is how this last paragraph has come across to me (if this interpretation is in error, I apologize). 2. I do not misunderstand what I want to accomplish. I know exactly what I want to accomplish and I know exactly how I'd like to do that. Now, if I am overlooking a simpler, more elegant, or less troublesome solution, than I'd be more than happy to hear it. 3. I do understand what you are saying, in that "how do you mount a filesystem...from a partition that itself has not yet been mounted". This is a good point. I was under the impression that the mount -a command read the file from top to bottom and mounted each one in turn. Since I would place the vnX filesystem(s) at the end of the file, I didn't believe this would be a problem. On the other hand, this discussion has pointed out to me that _I_ am probably attacking the problem at hand from the wrong angle. A better solution would be to have the issue of vnconfig not being able to directly mount cd9660 (and possibly other) filesystems addressed. As it stands now my only solution is to vnconfig the device node and then mount it separately. I am not a programmer, but I can gather the appropriate information and file a pr on it (assuming this has not been one already submitted). > Do you have vn in the kernel? Have you created the vn device nodes? > Have you tried doing something like mounting mfsroot.flp from your hard > drive as a file system? > Whether vnX works on my system is not in question.

Able to connect to the internet on all internal machines through FreeBSD box with Squid. Trying to figure out how to download and send my e-mail from and to my ISP. I would like to be able to use my win98 internal machine to read and send e-mail. Been using Outlook 2000. I only been using FreeBSD for about a Month. Have read the complete FreeBSD book. But it doesn't talk much about downloading and sending e-mail with a DSL connection. Do I use sendmail, popper, pop3, smtp and how do I configure FreeBSD to let me go through the FreeBSD box to read my mail from my win98 computer. I been trying hard to figure this out, but I don't have enough experience yet on unix. Also was wondering about newsgroups. Thanks for your help on advance.

Off the top of my head, given what you said, there is probably an ipfw rule that is blocking some icmp packets. Take a look at /etc/rc.conf to see what firewall type is being used. Also check in /etc/rc.firewall for that given firewall type. If the machine is not being used for firewalling at all you could just go into /etc/rc.conf and set firewall_type="open" Alternatively, check the permissions on /sbin/ping, although I doubt that is the issue.

The second CD is a live filesystem that allows you to savage your system when a disaster occurred. (or you can run of that system, if your hard drive space is limited.) The third and forth CD, as I recall, contains the installation files for the port directory. Those you will have to browse through the package/port collection from /stand/sysinstall to install. Either that or go directly to /usr/ports to install the software. I'm not sure how much hard drive space you have, but I'm pretty sure you won't want to install all of the software. After all, including just the majority of the installation files would be around 1200 MB already, and they are all compressed. For more information, go to www.freebsd.org or take a look into Greg's book on FreeBSD. I hope this helps.

You put it in /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup so it is only run when you connect to your isp. Of course, if you're not using ppp, e.g. cable, dsl, etc.. than just ignore me. :) Although I'm sure there's a way to run it only when needed in that situation also. === As to the original question, I'm not sure if this is what he is asking. I belive what Krzysztof is asking, is if there is a way for the bind running on his box to be updated with the current IP address of some other boxes. E.g. His box would be acting like a mini-dyndns style name server. If that is the question, I don't belive there is a freely available daemon to do this. -Chris > -----Original Message----- > From: Scott A.

Just recently, I upgraded from 3.2-STABLE to 3.3-STABLE, and it seems my machine will lock up periodically. (It has happened 3 or 4 times since 3.3-STABLE was compiled on the date shown in the dmesg output) Two things I've been doing differently lately which I doubt would cause this. One is running ssh 1.2.27 clients all the time, another is running apache. Is this a known problem? If not, any suggestions on how one might investigate the cause of this? ----- Here is some dmesg info on my machine: ----- FreeBSD 3.3-STABLE #1: Thu Oct 21 13:21:16 PDT 1999 stab@freebsd.oblivion.sk:/usr/src/sys/compile/oblivion Timecounter "i8254" frequency 1193182 Hz CPU: Cyrix 5x86 (486-class CPU) Origin = "CyrixInstead" DIR=0x132d Stepping=1 Revision=3 real memory = 33554432 (32768K bytes) avail memory = 30035968 (29332K bytes) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Nov 27 16:39:33 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from ns.clientlogic.com (ns.clientlogic.com [207.51.66.75]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D47A5155AA for ; Sat, 27 Nov 1999 16:39:16 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ChrisMic@clientlogic.com) Received: by site0s1 with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) id ; Sat, 27 Nov 1999 19:39:22 -0500 Message-ID: <6C37EE640B78D2118D2F00A0C90FCB4401105DC7@site2s1> From: Christopher Michaels To: "'wcondon@pacbell.net'" , freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: RE: Downloading and sending mail to and from ISP to Win98 intern al network computer Date: Sat, 27 Nov 1999 19:39:10 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) Content-Type: text/plain Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Ok. Well, there are 2 ways you could implement this. 1. Configure natd on your system. Then just point your Outlook 2000 to your ISPs SMTP, POP3, IMAP, etc.. servers. 2. a. Use fetchmail to download mail from your ISP to the FreeBSD box. b. Use the FreeBSD box as your SMTP server. If you are going to do this, you'll need to tweek the sendmail configuration a little bit so that your mail isn't rejected by the recipients mail server. Take a look at http://www.sendmail.org/m4/masquerading.html As for newsgroups, ether setup natd, or read them from the BSD box. I never heard of a nntp proxy (although I wouldn't doubt one exists).

If you want to set this variable for each login of yours, you should probably play around with your /etc/login.conf or your ~/.login_conf files, and add the variable in the :setenv=...: capability. Please do remember to call cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf after you're done editing, though ;) Alternatively, you could set this variable in /etc/csh.cshrc (if you're using /bin/csh as your shell) or /etc/profile (for /bin/sh, bash, etc). -- Giorgos Keramidas, "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

Perhaps a setup something like this. client | portmaster 2E +-- EMAIL HTTP / FTP / DNS | / switch/hub - - - - - - SQUID PROXY | \ firewall +-- RADIUS / DNS | router | 128 Kbps Line Port 80 redirection takes place at the firewall to the Squid Proxy (IP Filter works fine, but I am told this will also work with natd). The goal is to allow higher speed access to our hub, but limit the amount each user can have (after the proxy) in accessing the outside world. With limits of 4Kbps going up by 2Kbps jumps (i.e. 4Kbps, 6K, 8K, 10K, 32K etc.) The ALTQ docs don't give a lot of hope for "slow" connections like 512 Kbps (much higher than ours!). If would be nice to be able to allow use of other client's bandwidth when they were not using it... Or... at least be able to change settings, like one set of dummynet rules for 4pm-midnight (our peak time), another set for 9AM to 4 pm when it is not too crowded - but still a higher per client limit, and another set for midnight to 9AM (our slowest time - or maybe no restrictions during this time).

Also ensure the PCI/ISA cards are all fully seated. Could also be a power supply issue - have you added any new drives to draw more power? Random lockups are often hardware related. -Brent To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Nov 27 23:26:49 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from camelot.bitart.com (camelot.BITart.com [206.103.221.33]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id D11FB15086 for ; Sat, 27 Nov 1999 23:26:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gerti@bitart.com) Received: (qmail 3292 invoked by uid 101); 28 Nov 1999 07:26:43 -0000 Message-ID: <19991128072643.3291.qmail@camelot.bitart.com> Content-Type: text/plain MIME-Version: 1.0 (NeXT Mail 4.2mach v148) In-Reply-To: X-Nextstep-Mailer: Mail 4.2mach (Enhance 2.2p1) Received: by NeXT.Mailer (1.148) From: Gerd Knops Date: Sun, 28 Nov 1999 01:26:43 -0600 To: Chris England Subject: Re: 3.3-STABLE Crashes Cc: questions@freebsd.org Reply-To: gerti@BITart.com References: Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Chris England wrote: > Hi all, > > I've been using FreeBSD since the beginning of the 2.2 branch and have > never had a problem with my system crashing. > > Just recently, I upgraded from 3.2-STABLE to 3.3-STABLE, and it seems my > machine will lock up periodically.

My guess would be the kernel is running out of something and panics. You might want to check /var/log/messages for some signs of trouble.

I am of course looking for something that works well with freebsd, is external, and is 56k v.90. People have reccomended that I get a USR courier but I dont want to spend all that money if my connection will not be faster than with something like a 56k sportster. With a Hayes Accura external 56k I connect at around 31.2 kbps, with an internal 56k motorola modemsurfer i get around 33.6 kbps. Could anyone who has used these modems estimate what my connection speed with a courier might be based on the connect speeds of the other modems or even reccomend a different modem? Thnx in advance.

Therefore, I am making higher and lower quality connections (of course at different prices!) During our peak times, every circuit is over loaded... Some people are willing to pay for higher quality... If I put dummynet right behind the router, I can't see how it will help me as it will limit the bandwidth based on the Proxy's address, instead of the originator (mainly cafes with 6-20 computers). I want to limit EACH cafe based on the bandwidth used AFTER (on the border side of) our proxy. Maybe I am just missing something... This is what it looks like so far: 128-Kbps | Router (this allows F/W filter, but not redirect) | GW/IPFilter (to redirect port 80 to proxy) | Servers - HUB - Proxy | Portmaster | Cafe What I am thinking of would look like this: 128-Kbps | Router (w/ F/W filter) | Servers - HUB - FNS Proxy | IPFW/natd/dummynet | Portmaster | Cafe Proxy Rules: 1) The cafe proxy (one global IP address) would do Nat translation to RFC 1918 addresses. All other addresses are global. 2) The Cafe Proxy would address the FNS proxy as sibling on UDP port 3128. 3) The Cafe Proxy would address the FNS proxy as a parent on TCP port 3130. 4) Natd would redirect all port 80 request to the FNS Proxy. 5) dummynet would allow a 10Mbps pipe to the Servers IP addresses. 6) dummynet would allow a 10Mbps pipe to the FNS Proxy UDP port 3128. 7) dummynet would allow a 6Kbps pipe for all other requests. 8) "Servers" include local HTTP, FTP, DNS, Email and Radius. Flow: 1) A cafe work station makes a request to the Cafe Proxy. 2) If available, cafe Proxy servers request. 3) If unavailable on Cafe Proxy AND available on FNS Proxy, FNS Proxy servers request at max. speed as sibling on UDP port 3128. 4) If unavailable on FNS Proxy (as UDP sibling), Cafe Proxy makes requests to FNS proxy as parent on TCP port 3130. This is limited to the "assigned speed" of 6Kbps. The request is sent to the "outside" border while dummynet restricts the bandwidth to 6Kbps. The return is stored in both the FNS Proxy and the Cafe Proxy. 5) The Cafe would have "unrestricted access" (up to 10Mbps) to all Servers for downloading local DNS, FTP, web pages, and email. Questions... Can I assign a proxy as both the parent and sibling of the cafe proxy? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
