Does > anybody have any experience of running Applixware on something as small as > a Libretto 70CT? Can it cope with only 32MB of RAM and a 640x480 screen? This may not be applicable, but I've used applix 4.3.1 on Linux with a 486/80 and 64MB of RAM. X is slow, but once started it works. Applix too takes a while to load, but once started is useable. The screen I have however is a 17" monitor at 1024x768 but I think a standard VGA screen will work even if it's not ideal. I'm not sure what processor or RAM you have on your Libretto 70CT, but would think that the important thing is having enough RAM, otherwise you will probably pay the price of swapping heavily. Hope this information is useful (In this context I don't think there will be any significant differences between linux and FreeBSD.)

I tried vi, it also can not open it, "Error: jahanur: No space left on device; jahanur: unmodified: line 1" How can I view this big file and delete some email from their so that I can save the ones I want. Is theie any other way. I know one email could cause this problem; I know its sender. Do you think I can delete anything came from that particular sender. Please help.

No lilo-like stuff i have to do afterwards? Install will copy the GENERIC kernel from the distribution, not from the floppy. You will need to overwite the GENERIC kernel (that will be on your HD following install) with a custom kernel that was built with support for your RAID card. This same custom kernel needs to be on your boot floppy ( in gzipped form ) to start the install also.

The claim comes from the fact that Linux has a "pass-through" mechanism that can make ATAPI devices look like SCSI. If you're not using Linux, you're SOL, though, AFAIK. Wormcontrol(8) (as found in /usr/share/examples/worm) is good for burning data CDs, but I've had some problems burning audio CDs with it. Might just be my drive though; maybe you'll have better luck.

I've had a great time on the net since setting up a FreeBSD gateway! I love this OS already. But here's a question.... When I try to use IRC, many servers insist that I run "inetd" or they'll boot me off. So, I can run inetd, and they'll let me log on from an IRC client running on the FBSD gateway. But, if I try to run a client on a private machine *behind* the gateway they boot me off every time, whether or not inetd is running on the gateway. (Seeing as the machine in question is a Mac, I couldn't run inetd on that anyway). So what's up? Is this peculiar to IRC or have I got my configuration wrong somewhere?

I've yet to find a way to do this myself. I *MUCH* prefer my Windows/OS-2 client (OpenCHAT) to IRCII, or many of the other IRC clients available to FBSD. However, you require what is called a proxy identd. There are *TONS* of them outhere for Linux (oidentd, midentd, etc, etc) which compile and run find on FBSD, but do not offer the Masq'in/proxying support you require for your client machines. And you'd have to run identd on your Mac - most likely, its built into your IRC client. This is a problem these days because 98% of the servers on EFNET now require you to identd yourself. If you happen to find a solution (or more precisely, someone willing to port one of the afore mentioned apps) *LET* me know!

(sorry -questions folks if you've already answered this.., and this shouldn't have been sent to -stable anyway..:) You need to have the ports collection's "backbone" installed in order to use any port. When I say "backbone" I mean the Mk dir, which contains the necessary makefiles needed to build and install ports. You can use cvsup to get portions of the FreeBSD ports collection (install the cvsup-bin package or something like that), or you can try to get Mk/* off the ftp servers, it should be in pub/FreeBSD/branches/-current/ports/Mk. The "deal" with all the extra directories is that the mechanism used to download ports off the website makes it download a tarball that contains the full path on the FTP server. Your best shot would be downloading it like so: fetch ftp://ftpX.FreeBSD.ORG/pub/FreeBSD/branches/-current/ports/Y/Z.tar where X is a number between 2 and 6, Y is the port's category, and Z is the name of the port. Of course, some of the ftp servers don't support downloading directories as tarballs, and I've prodded people about this before.

Try adding the domain and server name to the ypbind command line... ie. ypbind -S your.domain,your.NIS.server also, make sure that your /etc/host.conf file includes nis in the resolution order... #/etc/host.conf #Check nis server first nis #Then check with the DNS server bind #then look under /etc/hosts last hosts Third, I found that it helps to have an /etc/hosts entry for the server on each of the clients... counter to what the host.conf says, it appears that some services don't come up fully during re-boot when ypbind is called from /etc/rc.conf, and certain clients had a hard time finding my master server. Finally... although the man and documentation says otherwise, I couldn't get my clients to attach until I had an entry in /var/yp/securenets on the server. This is a good idea anyway... and pretty necessary if your clients are coming in different networks. On Sun, 5 Dec 1999, Crist J.

This seems to work better for a business environment, but sunday works better for me time-wise...

There is a little trade-off here. If a file changes once on Monday and never again during the week, it is still going to get backed up every day of the week. For the simplicity of your scheme you pay by having the size of that level 2 backup grow monotonically. If for your system(s) the size is not really a factor, then I don't see why the simplicity trade might be worth it for you. I assume from the way you phrased some things that you are backing up soley for full-system recovery (to return the machine to its last functioning state) after a catastrophic event. However, if you also back up to save old "snapshots" (when a luser comes to you, "I accidently deleted a file last week, is it backed up somewhere?") of the system, that may call for a more complex approach. -- Crist J.

Well, it's not insane. ;-) Things to consider: Do you want to be able to restore previous system states? Like that file you deleted two weeks ago and now need again?

This is kindof offtopic. I learned about a class `ostringstream' that allows sending ints and floats into a string. I then tried finding it in headers, but only found `strstream'. I proceded to use it, but then I was pointed out that strstream::str() returns `* char', and therefore is liable to cause memory leaks. Whereas ostringstrea::str() would return a `string'. I greped around in /usr/include directories on my FreeBSD box, my Linux box, and my school's Solaris installation, and couldn't find any reference to ostringstream. Does this class or its equivallent exist somewhere? Thanks! -- Arcady Genkin http://wgaf.dyndns.org "'What good is my pity? Is not the pity the cross upon which he who loves man is nailed?..'"

You know, it's questions such as Scott and Tiff wrote to this mailing list clearly shows that more and more people are learning about FreeBSD and not just in a usage sense.

The website also instructs you how to obtain FreeBSD and the files you asked about above. It's clearly documented: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html > If you want to be competitive with Microsoft, you need to make it easier > to find all teh parts of your software. It would be nice if everything > was in one place. And you should understand also that while Microsoft may be all flashy and easy to use, FreeBSD (while it too can be as such) is an ongoing project in which thousands of people are maintaining and upgrading (both features and support) but the main focus is the operating system. There are plenty of resources out there which are designed for people such as yourself that need that extra bit of help to get FreeBSD going. One excellent resource in which you'll learn everything you need to learn about FreeBSD is the book entitled "The Complete FreeBSD" (I personally have the 3rd Edition) in which a guy named Greg Lehey (grog@FreeBSD.ORG) (and several other fine individuals) document and layout FreeBSD in a concise and timely fashion. You can get more information at http://www.freebsdmall.com/books/#bsdcomp Since FreeBSD is just that "free", the main force behind the Project is done as I said by people in their free time and the goodness of their heart (or for whatever reasons). When you have a problem with your Microsoft Windows and you call Microsoft, you don't talk to the people who wrote Windows, you're talking to their Customer Support department. So invest some time and perhaps email Greg for information on how to get his fine book and spend the time to learn. Having everything done for you is denying to yourself you have the capability to learn something useful.

(For example > ALT-4 should produce $ sign) Yes, that's in the keymap definition. Look at /usr/share/syscons/keymaps/us.iso.kbd, which defines the standard layout. You would want to create a tr.iso.kbd for your layout.

The next column describes the character generated by the key alone. The column after that describes the character generated with the key and the shift key. The column after that describes the character generated with the key and the control key. The column after that describes the character generated with the key and the control and shift keys, and so on. The last column specifies whether the CapsLock key applies to this character or not. To change this, just change the characters which are generated by the key. For example, key 21 is 'y' in the USA, but 'z' in Germany. The German keymap contains: 021 'z' 'Z' sub sub 'z' 'Z' sub sub C Note that the control characters have changed too: 'sub' is the ASCII SUB control character, ^Z. If you leave this as dc4, you'll have the bizarre situation where the key generates 'z' by itself, but ^Y with the control key. > Also how can I submit the product to FreeBSD group so that it can be > included in future releases?

I somehow messed up the disklabel on one of the freebsd partitions. The partition contained two slices. I can still use the first slice by mounting the original slice (/dev/wd0s3e) -- I can even use the slice in linux by mounting the primary partition (/dev/hda3) as of type ufs. However the other slice cannot be mounted -- gives incorrect superblock. I found it strange that even though the original disklabel has been erased, I can still use the first slice. I hope that the second slice can be recovered. Is there a way? Thanks a lot. sumedh. P.S. please send the replies to my address as I am not (yet) on the mailing list. thanks!

Some CDROM drives are slow to respond after issuing a start command, and a subsequent request to play can fail. In xmcd 2.5, a small delay was inserted to work around this problem. If you are running a version of xmcd older than 2.5, I suggest upgrading to the latest, which is 2.5 PL1. You can download it at: http://metalab.unc.edu/tkan/xmcd/ If you are already running 2.5, then perhaps I can work with you a bit to track down the problem. -Ti (author of xmcd) -- \\ // Ti Kan \\/ XMCD + CDA //\ Email: xmcd@amb.org // \\ Web site: http://metalab.unc.edu/tkan/xmcd/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Dec 5 16:33:15 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from imo27.mx.aol.com (imo27.mx.aol.com [152.163.225.71]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DDDFB14D1D for ; Sun, 5 Dec 1999 16:33:13 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Robinhan1@aol.com) Received: from Robinhan1@aol.com by imo27.mx.aol.com (mail_out_v24.4.) id n.0.6bb7bc00 (4233) for ; Sun, 5 Dec 1999 19:33:02 -0500 (EST) From: Robinhan1@aol.com Message-ID: <0.6bb7bc00.257c5e3e@aol.com> Date: Sun, 5 Dec 1999 19:33:02 EST Subject: HELP NEEDED!

All he did was change one line in mail.local.c: /* Hack to send mail to users local directories */ /* (void)snprintf(path, sizeof(path), "%s/%s", _PATH_MAILDIR, name); */ (void)snprintf(path, sizeof(path), "%s/.mail", pw->pw_dir); This has always worked and we have never had a problem with it. I just did this to my new 3.3 machine and it seems to work fine, though I haven't finished testing it. My question is, does anyone see any issues with this? I know that you can use procmail as your local mailer, but I had heard/read that procmail is not the best solution for FreeBSD local mailing because of how it reads the emails into memory (i.e. a big mail can crash procmail).

I just bought 3 of these cards to replace some DEC 21143-based cards that won't negotiate correctly with my Linksys switch. I was briefly happy with the Intel cards, until I realised that they all appear to FreeBSD (3.3-STABLE Wed Dec 1 14:27:14 PST 1999) to have identical MAC addresses, and hence won't talk to one another... A search on the mailing list archive turned up a a response from DG regarding this last month, but nothing since. The probe information/driver messages say: found-> vendor=0x8086, dev=0x1229, revid=0x08 class=02-00-00, hdrtype=0x00, mfdev=0 subordinatebus=0 secondarybus=0 intpin=a, irq=10 map[0]: type 1, range 32, base e1110000, size 12 map[1]: type 4, range 32, base 00006200, size 6 map[2]: type 1, range 32, base e1000000, size 20 fxp0: rev 0x08 int a irq 10 on pci0.10.0 fxp0: Ethernet address 00:a4:c0:91:d2:9c, 10Mbps fxp0: warning: unsupported PHY, type = 0, addr = 0 As in the previous report, 'Doze reports a different MAC address, and thinks the card is an "Intel(R) PRO/100+ Management Adapter with Alert on LAN". I think that these cards are the Intel 741462-xxx (PILA8460BN) parts, with the trailing 3-connector pigtail lead (presumably for the Wake-On-Lan and/or Management functions) and 2 LED's. They are Intel 82559-based. The cards seem to work perfectly (thanks to the auto-negotiation), but only one at a time on the network :-( I note that the FAQ on Intel's web site has the following to say regarding this card: My PRO/100+ appears to load OK in Windows NT* 4.0, but I can?t browse the network. The driver included in NT 4.0 for the Intel PRO/100B line is outdated and may not work correctly on newer hardware, such as the PRO/100+. Please update your drivers to the latest version in 100PDISK.EXE Is there any more information available about this problem, is there anything I can do to help, would the loan/donation of a card itself help?

If you use gcc 2.7.2 which is a default compiler for FreeBSD, then you should take into considerentatio that is not up to version 3 - close, but not there. Basically, there are stream ans strstream. The first one is an attachment of stream class to "strings" amd the second one is pretty the same except it uses "char*" (or "C" style) strings instead of "string". If you really like to work with this stuff then I propose to install egcs 2.95.2 as an additional compiler set. -----Original Message----- From: Arcady Genkin To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Sunday, December 05, 1999 5:23 PM Subject: Missing header with g++? >Hi.

Take a look at www.xfree86.org for a list of supported cards. Your problem is probably not Linux itself (not that I'm discouraging you from FreeBSD). I've successfully used S3 cards before..but not AGP. Michael G.

If the Generic kernel sees it as ed1 then use ifconfig to set it up, something like this: (as root, type this) ifconfig ed1 130.236.49.127 netmask 255.255.248.0 up and you're off. This can be automatically be performed at bootup if you insert the relevant lines in /etc/rc.conf (look in /etc/defaults/rc.conf for the layout). If this is a first time setup you probably also want to manipulate /etc/resolv.conf: domain isy.liu.se nameserver 130.236.48.2 ...or something. Use your imagination:) /Micke PS. ifconfig -a shows some intersting stuff. Make ceratin the UP flag is set. ---------------------------------- Michael Josefsson, MSEE mj@isy.liu.se This message was sent by XFMail running on FreeBSD 3.1 ---------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 6 0:10: 0 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from linux.ssc.nsu.ru (linux.ssc.nsu.ru [193.124.209.130]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id A5D4B15129 for ; Mon, 6 Dec 1999 00:02:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from danfe@inet.ssc.nsu.ru) Received: (qmail 29008 invoked from network); 6 Dec 1999 07:51:17 -0000 Received: from inet.ssc.nsu.ru (62.76.110.12) by hub.freebsd.org with SMTP; 6 Dec 1999 07:51:17 -0000 Received: from localhost (danfe@localhost) by inet.ssc.nsu.ru (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id NAA16100 for ; Mon, 6 Dec 1999 13:51:00 +0600 Date: Mon, 6 Dec 1999 13:51:00 +0600 (NOVT) From: "Alexey N.

I was just wondering about Midnight Commander working under FBSD 3.3-REL. It was installed from precompiled packages, so I beleive it's of version 4.35. Well, oddly enough, I wasn't able to send Shift/Alt,say,F7 (continue search). Moreover, Ctrl-O (show/hide panels) works like if I ssh'ed to another machine (I've tested this effect under RH Linux 6.1 installation, on console it works just fine, but when I ssh somewhere, still having TERM=linux, it woks like on cons25 console). What's wrong? I thought that cons25 rules! Is linux better (speaking of teminals)? Please prove me wrong, I want to love FreeBSD, not Linux. And right now that's not the case :-( ./danfe To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 6 0:10:41 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from buffy.tpgi.com.au (buffy.tpgi.com.au [203.12.160.34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4A63C15129 for ; Mon, 6 Dec 1999 00:10:36 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from marcd@tpg.com.au) Received: (from smtpd@localhost) by buffy.tpgi.com.au (8.9.3/8.9.3) id TAA12819; Mon, 6 Dec 1999 19:10:34 +1100 Received: from cbr2-ppp-051.tpgi.com.au(203.29.136.51), claiming to be "zen.dodsworth.org" via SMTP by buffy.tpgi.com.au, id smtpdfhDBQk; Mon Dec 6 19:10:24 1999 From: Marc Dodsworth To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: ed1 configuration Date: Mon, 6 Dec 1999 18:34:20 +1030 X-Mailer: KMail [version 1.0.28] Content-Type: text/plain Cc: mj@isy.liu.se MIME-Version: 1.0 Message-Id: <99120618391300.01005@zen.dodsworth.org> Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Thanks for the reply.

In /etc/rc.shutdown I have commands to cleanly shut down squid and innd, but after the reboot I noticed these commands have not been run. Grepping /etc/rc* for "shutdown" gives me hits in /etc/rc.shutdown only, so it is not run by /etc/rc*. The shutdown man page didn't provide useful information on this either, so I wonder how is this whole thing supposed to work? Pardon me if the mailing list archives have an answer to this question, but www.FreeBSD.ORG seems to be cut off from my location at the moment. www.de.freebsd.org is there, but it references the archives on the main site, so it is no help right now. Any clues/hints appreciated. Thanks for your time reading this. -thomas -- thomas (@members box) .powered.by.debian/linux. .served.by.FreeBSD.

There you can read how to get the kern.flp and mfsroot.flp images along with fdimage.exe to create the two disk bootable set..which will (once configured) let you install over the net.

I don't really like the fact that my russian font toggle key is CAPS Lock.

Yep, that's a known issue with 3.2-RELEASE, fixed in rev 1.16.2.1 of src/sbin/shutdown/shutdown.c . If you track STABLE, update your source tree to a recent RELENG_3 and ``make world''.

Can Sendmall be > configured to handle this? Sure, sendmail just needs to be told the hostname of a smart relay host to hand over outbound mail to. As a quick and dirty hack, you can set this by tacking the hostname on to the end of the DS line in /etc/sendmail.cf. For example: DSsmtp.myisp.com You may also want sendmail to masquerade so that outbound mail goes out with the "correct" domain name. Personally, I think that's a hack and your MUA should take responsibility for creating a reasonable From field. If you disagree with me, you can do something like this: # who I masquerade as (null for no masquerading) DMmyisp.com Ciao, Sheldon.

It's ok, you really ought to try 3.3-stable, all the packages should work fine with it. 4.0 is the developer/early-adopter version, not fun for newbies. 3.x is the 'stable' version, and much easier on people new to FreeBSD. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 6 4: 7:43 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from axl.noc.iafrica.com (axl.noc.iafrica.com [196.31.1.175]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9B37D14F99 for ; Mon, 6 Dec 1999 04:07:36 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from sheldonh@axl.noc.iafrica.com) Received: from sheldonh (helo=axl.noc.iafrica.com) by axl.noc.iafrica.com with local-esmtp (Exim 3.11 #1) id 11uwu8-0007Rg-00; Mon, 06 Dec 1999 14:06:08 +0200 From: Sheldon Hearn To: "Alexey N.

What's wrong? Could you provide a more sensible description of the problem? For example: When I use MC on the console of my FreeBSD machine with TERM=cons25, Ctrl-O swaps panels properly. However, when I ssh from my FreeBSD machine into a Linux host, which uses the completely non-standard TERM=linux, Ctrl-O causes puppies to leap out from my screen and chew my keyboard. > Is linux better (speaking of teminals)?

Not until you tell us _how_ you are trying to connect? Are you using telnet, ssh, rlogin, what? :-) If you're using telnet: 1) Don't. Investigate ssh. :-) 2) You need allow telnet connections from 146.151.104.67 with TCP Wrappers. I'm guessing here, of course, because you haven't told us which version of FreeBSD you are using. Look for an /etc/hosts.allow file. 3) Inetd needs to be running. Make sure you _don't_ have a line that looks like this in /etc/rc.conf: inetd_enable="NO" Ciao, Sheldon.

If it's a Windows computer to which your printer is connected, you've probably got things the wrong way around. :-) You should ask whoever does your Windows support the following question: How can I make the printer model XXX-999 which I have connected to my Windows 9999 workstation available to remote hosts via TCP/IP?

Yeah. You don't even need to worry about the timing, so much. Some points of interest: 1) If you update in the week or two _before_ the release tags go down, you'll notice that uname reports 3.4-RC. The RC stands for RELEASE CANDIDATE. Stupid idea, if you ask me, but then I didn't come up with any better ideas when it was under discussion. :-) 2) Don't bother taking the advice that you should use the RELENG_3_4_0_RELEASE tag. Just keep using RELENG_3. If you use the release tag and forget to go back to using RELENG_3 after that, you won't be tracking STABLE any more. Also, the release tags take a long time to lay down, so you'd just have to wait a while for them to become available. In other words, if you track RELENG_3 (a.k.a STABLE) then you don't worry about releases at all. Just keep updating and you'll notice: 3.3-STABLE 3.4-RC 3.4-STABLE The release will pass you by the way any other milestone does -- an interesting blur in the corner of your eye. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.

I'm also a complete newbie to freeBSD ;) Do yourself a favour and use /stand/sysinstall to do the job. It's easy to use. basically, do the Custom Install (Expert) and use the Partition and Label menu options. Be sure to use the Write Changes option in the Partition Editor and the Write option in the Disklabel Editor. Also, when you're prompted to choose a boot manager, be _very_ careful. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.

I would like FreeBSD to be the sole operating system on the disk. After going through setup, the filesystems seem to be created okay, but as soon as it attempts to begin extracting files to the disk, the installation quits with a "panic: ufs_dirbad : bad dir". My motherboard is an ASUS P2B-F with the bios upgraded to the latest version which does support disks larger than 32 GB. I originally tried installing FreeBSD on the disk while it was new and it failed with the panic string that I gave above. I then [Microsoft]FDISKed, formatted with FAT32 and tried installing windows 98 alone on the disk and it worked, then tried installing Windows NT workstation 4.0 alone on the disk with NTFS - and it worked as well. I also tried an 8.5 GB Maxtor and FreeBSD installed sucessfully on it. So now, I'm seeking answers to these three questions... 1) Is FreeBSD incompatible with UDMA? 2) Is FreeBSD itself able to handle IDE drives as large as 36.5 GB, and if not, what is the maximum disk size that it will support? 3) If FreeBSD is compatible with UDMA, and is able to handle IDE disks as large as 36.5 GB, what would most likely be causing the panic error given above? Thanks in advance to anyone who might be able to help reach a solution here.

I made my comments based on the changes that were required in the CURRENT source tree when we upgraded the compiler in the base system. it wouldn't be a problem if the egcs package had been installed from the ports or packages.

I am sure that FreeBSD UUCP *IS* Taylor UUCP. The original UUCP from Bazerkly was pretty simple, thus most UUCP shops I worked at used HDB (HoneyDanBer) UUCP. (incl: SCO and Tandy RS/6000) It had a *lot* more (useful even!) features, logging, and performance. To see for yourself, try 'strings -a /usr/libexec/uucp/uucico | grep -i Taylor'... Taylor UUCP can be compiled several ways, though, to use different format config files (easier upgrade from HDB). Thus, if you have an existing Taylor UUCP (SunOS, HPUX, etc...) that was compiled to use existing config files, the FreeBSD format (native Taylor, I think) may look strange. If you can give us more detail, there are several folks around here that still use UUCP for commercial purposes. - Jy@ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 6 7:43: 9 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from math.udel.edu (math.udel.edu [128.175.16.7]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 40DB614DA6 for ; Mon, 6 Dec 1999 07:43:06 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from schwenk@math.udel.edu) Received: from math.udel.edu (sisyphus.math.udel.edu [128.175.16.167]) by math.udel.edu (8.9.3+Sun/8.9.1) with ESMTP id KAA13157 for ; Mon, 6 Dec 1999 10:43:05 -0500 (EST) Message-ID: <384BD989.229468BC@math.udel.edu> Date: Mon, 06 Dec 1999 10:43:05 -0500 From: Peter Schwenk Organization: University of Delaware X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (X11; I; SunOS 5.7 sun4u) X-Accept-Language: en, fr, de, ko MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: building kernel: compile/link errors References: <59773.944494313@axl.noc.iafrica.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Thanks for clearing that up.

If there is nothing out there already (meaning web pages) i will GLADLY put all collected information into a web page.

I want it to forward port 666 from the external IP to an Internal FTP server running on port 666 (running Windows Serv-U - I have no influence on this machine :) ) The BSD is not running IPFIREWALL, just natd. When configured as below, the only thing I can do, is connect to the FTP from machines with real IP adresses and not using passive FTP. This probably works, because the internal FTP can open data-ports with no restrictions to the machine on the Internet. But whenever a client behind a firewall some place tries, it wount work, because then the internal FTP isn´t allowed to communicate on other ports to the client. This is where passive FTP comes into the picture as far as I understand, this means, that every port that needs to be opened to the FTP will be opened from the client. So, i I ran a TCPDUMP on the BSD on the external interface, and tried to connect to the internal FTP using passive FTP, login and password no problems. Then I tried to do a LS, and thought this is where id probably see some new ports opening, but I didnt??? So how is this done???

RAID != new hardware ... personally, I've yet to see/find a good RAID controller, so tend to use software RAID exclusively... FreeBSD comes with both CCD and vinum...I belive vinum is becoming the "software of choice" as far as RAID under FreeBSD is concerned though, as, from what I was able to tell, its more featured...

In one example, we use sendmail and DRAC to perform pop-before-smtp authentication. We began experiencing rpc timeouts (DRAC) and core dumps, due to what I believe is/was a problem with sendmail keeping the db open for exclusive i/o too long (there could be other factors I'm unaware of). However, the problem is not isolated with that application, and according to the DRAC author, this problem is seen only in BSD-derived systems. He runs his on a Solaris system with 3,000+ users and has never had the race condition occur. We have 173 users and I had to disable it, and another pop-before-smtp hack we had because it rendered the process unusable. The author of DRAC asked me: >>>>>> I wonder if you could contact anyone who knows about file locking in FreeBSD to see where the bottleneck is? There may even be some faster mechanism available that we don't know about. <<<<<< Could someone in-the-know kindly help out?

I built the port and installed it, which sets up a "test-l" list. I rebuilt the aliases files and got the message that /usr/local/majordomo/aliases.majordomo had been included. The problem is that mail sent to this test list is not sent back out to members. Looking in the maillog, it appears that the resend command is started, but never sends anything out. I've included the portion of the maillog at the end of this post. The message is properly placed in the archive and digest areas, it's just not sent out to the list members. The sender is a member of the list. I'm stumped here, any pointers. BTW, the majordomo-users list at greatcircle.com seems to be dead.

I think the error is due to not having done a "make depend" in the compile directory after running config, but I may be mistaken.

I now had 256MB of REAL memory, more than I had before with virtual memory. when I disabled virtual memory the machine came to it's knees.

I set :pp for the defaut profile in the /etc/gettytab file. As long as I use std.19200 as the profile setting for the ttyd in /etc/ttys then I can connect from a remote (Win98) computer using ppp. If I use a different profile such as std.9600 or std.38400 then ppp is never started by getty. It would appear that getty doesn`t recognize that ppp is needed at other speeds. I just tried logging in via a regular dial-up terminal application rather than ppp and found that at 19200 I get a login prompt however at other speeds all I get is garbage characters. This would explain why the ppp transmisions from the win98 box are not noticed. I have an Echo Communications 56K fax modem attaced to the FreeBSD server answering the incoming calls. Typically I would like to use the std.115200 profile and then have the modem accept calls from modems of all speeds (14.4, 19.2, 28.8, 33.6 & 56.8) automatically adjusting the baud rate as needed. I have tried using two different computers to dial in both of which work with our ISP. One computer has a SupraExpress 33.6k modem the other is a Xircom 56T 56.8K modem. Are their any suggestions on how I can get this to work in such a manner that I can automatically detect the baud rate and use that rate be it 14.4k, 56.8k or anything in between. I have FreeBSD 3.1-Release installed on a Pentium 333Mhz system. Thanks for your assistance James A.

I would take a wild guess that it may have been used in a wildcat or pcboard bbs before to have been set in that way :) You'll need to play with the nonvolatile ram settings in the modem and get it to use the more standard "fixed com port speed" config and then std.115200 should be fine. Until you do this, I think the only speeds you'll ever see are 300/1200/2400/4800/9600/19200.

I'm sure you don't need routed. named would be useful, to provide a local DNS server + cache for other machines on your network. I don't think named will use much CPU time though, so don't worry too much. If you don't know how to set up named though, don't bother, but it shouldn't be hard to set up a caching and forwarding only named.

Which new IP addresses? > will the natd demon assign the addresses automatically... No, it just translates internal addresses to your external address on outbound packets, and vice versa. Basically, you get an external IP address from your ISP (e.g. 212.228.14.13 (that's mine)). Machines on your LAN will have 192.168/16 address (it looks like you know this already). e.g. your FreeBSD router would be 192.168.1.1 (in addition to your external IP on the other interface), configure your Win 98 machine as 192.168.1.2, etc. I'm not sure I see your problem. Could you explain precisely what isn't working, and in what way it isn't working? > i can just see all my friends getting droped from icq cause my puter is so > slow ???

But that costs money. FreeBSD requires at least 8MB for install (maybe even 12) so it's probably a no-go for you. Even if you were to install freebsd you can't expect Netscape and any decent GUI to run in 4 megs of ram, you'd probably need to use lynx and pine for www/email. sorry, -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 6 14:19:22 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from vapor.westin16.flyingcroc.net (vapor.westin16.flyingcroc.net [207.246.128.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8132C14C3F for ; Mon, 6 Dec 1999 14:19:18 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from myc@vapor.westin16.flyingcroc.net) Received: from localhost (myc@localhost) by vapor.westin16.flyingcroc.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id OAA56026 for ; Mon, 6 Dec 1999 14:15:45 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from myc@vapor.westin16.flyingcroc.net) Date: Mon, 6 Dec 1999 14:15:45 -0800 (PST) From: Mychal McGrew X-Sender: myc@vapor.westin16.flyingcroc.net To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: vinum Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Good afternoon, I have a question about vinum.

Set the partition type to type 'vinum'. From vinum(8): DRIVE LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS vinum drives are currently BSD disk partitions. They must be of type vinum in order to avoid overwriting data used for other purposes. Use disklabel -e to edit a partition type definition. The following display shows a typical partition layout as shown by disklabel: 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 81920 344064 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 240*- 297*) b: 262144 81920 swap # (Cyl. 57*- 240*) c: 4226725 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 2955*) e: 81920 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 57*) f: 1900000 425984 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 297*- 1626*) g: 1900741 2325984 vinum 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 1626*- 2955*) In this example, partition g may be used as a vinum partition. Parti- tions a, e and f may be used as UFS file systems or ccd partitions. Par- tition b is a swap partition, and partition c represents the whole disk and should not be used for any other purpose.

Basically, RC is what is going to be in the upcoming release (3.4). The -RC period allows for more testing to try and get the best release possible. Now is a good time to mention any bugs you've found or problems you are having so it can be fixed before December 15, when 3.4 is supposed to be released. > -- > Ben Smithurst | PGP: 0x99392F7D > ben@scientia.demon.co.uk | key available from keyservers and > | ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk -- John Baldwin -- http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ PGP Key: http://www.cslab.vt.edu/~jobaldwi/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 6 14:58:37 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from monsoon.mail.pipex.net (monsoon.mail.pipex.net [158.43.128.69]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 5334E14E3B for ; Mon, 6 Dec 1999 14:58:31 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mark@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org) Received: (qmail 18953 invoked from network); 6 Dec 1999 22:58:29 -0000 Received: from userbp25.uk.uudial.com (HELO marder-1.)

I'm having a problem with the test-l list that it creates for testing. I've traced the problem to the sendmail that resend spawns, it's starting this: /usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -oee -fowner-test-l@f2.addy.com test-l-outgoing and test-l-outgoing appears in aliases.majordomo as: test-l-outgoing::include:/usr/local/majordomo/lists/test-l, "|/usr/local/majordomo/wrapper archive -a -m -f /usr/local/majordomo/lists/test-l.archive/test-l.archive", "|/usr/local/majordomo/wrapper digest -r -C -l test-l-digest test-l-digest-outgoing" Now, both the wrapper versions (digest and archive) start and run as expected. However, sendmail doesn't grab the addresses in /usr/local/majordomo/lists/test-l and send the message to them. Now, what would cause sendmail to fail on this include? There are absolutely no error messages in any logs.

Different modem vendors have different ways of fixing the DTE speed of the modem. Some won't let you do it, especially WinModems which lose most of the few brain cells they have without Win32 support. > I have an Echo Communications 56K fax modem > attaced to the FreeBSD server answering the > incoming calls.

You might be able to kill two birds at one time (one you didn't know was there 8{). If you use mgetty, it can allow FAXes as well as regular getty support and decent auto-ppp support. As it disables auto-answer and issues a 'ATA' command when it sees 'RING', it always reminds the modem of the DTE rate desired. If you have a voicemail modem, it can even be a DTMF-menu-enabled voicemail system. I have a great web script for Apache to be the rest of the answering machine.

The easiest way that I found to trouble shoot the situation was to strip the test-list down to only the most basic functions, by temporarily removing all archive and digest stuff etc. After doing that, I was able to look at my sendmail logs and get a more accurate picture of what exactly was going on. In fact, some error messages started turning up that I had not seen when I had all of the bells and whistles configured. Play around with this for a bit, then let me know if there are more specific details that I can help you with. -- Damien Tougas Converging Technology Solutions, Inc.

The library should have been installed by the installation of OpenSSL. You did install OpenSSL by doing the following, # cd /usr/ports/security/openssl # make # make install Correct? Check if the file, /usr/local/lib/libcrypto.so.1 exists. If it does, check that /usr/local/lib is in your ldconfig(8) cache, # ldconfig -r | grep crypto If not, do a, # ldconfig -m /usr/local/lib HTH.

Recently I had to wipe that computer and reinstall FreeBSD. However, when I setup XFree86 and start it, I get a window that has blocks instead of fonts. :( The pop-up window for twm has a title that is correct, and the items on the menu show up until I scroll the pointer over them, and then they are replaced with blank blocks. Anybody have any ideas why this video chip is being so difficult? Any help would be great! Thanks!!

(9Gb) Not too many will run a disk at 100% (rule of thumb for me is "80% is 'full'"). That takes us down to 7Gb compressed :') One would expect that not all of the data is "user" data, so let's allow a generous 2 Gb for non-changing system type data (e.g. BSD itself, NetNav, StarOffice or whatever and a bunch of other applications that can be easily recovered from CD). 5Gb or so is still a lot to burn to a CD. About 9 or 10 CDs. (Here is Oz I can get a box of 10 CD media for $18.50 - well, that was the price last week, the week before it was $22.) How much has changed since the last backup? Perhaps adopt a cycle of "full-backup" each Sunday afternoon (while watching the idiot-box), and then incremental each evening during the week. One would expect changes since the previous incremental to be less than a CDs worth - especially if it were compressed :') With all of this, you could "pretend" you were an 'operator' in the 'bad-old-days' when all they had to do of an evening was feed tapes into tape drives for backups :') So, maybe you could get by with 2 hours on a Sunday afternoon feeding in 9 or 10 CDs, and 20 minutes each evening. Even if you reduce the 2 hour stint to once a month, and backup once a week, the fact remains that even that backup-policy is better than the one most others adopt (none at all). For ease and simplicity, you still can't beat a big tape-drive, or a smaller one with a tape-caddy :') Now, a writable DVD looks promising ;') haxxa To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 6 18:45: 1 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from watson.ficsgrp.com (watson.ficsgrp.com [194.74.111.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B60F414D34 for ; Mon, 6 Dec 1999 18:44:58 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from harry.woodward-clarke@s1.com) Received: from mail.au.ficsgrp.com ([194.74.111.35]) by watson.ficsgrp.com (Netscape Messaging Server 3.6) with ESMTP id AAA15D3 for ; Tue, 7 Dec 1999 03:44:55 +0100 Received: from S1.com ([172.16.48.219]) by mail.au.ficsgrp.com (Netscape Messaging Server 3.6) with ESMTP id 432; Tue, 7 Dec 1999 13:47:53 +1100 Message-ID: <384C7426.51C4E205@S1.com> Date: Tue, 07 Dec 1999 13:42:46 +1100 From: Harry Woodward-Clarke X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 2.2.8-RELEASE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Gunnar H Reichert-Weygold Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: UNIX class References: <99120618124400.01060@gunnar.my.domain> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hey Gunnar, > > My local community college is offering a class entitled "UNIX Systems > Administration", and targeted toward the novice. > > They will be using SCO in the class.

Standard uucp commands (rmail/rnews etc) will assign a default grade. There's an info document describing Taylor uucp on your system (can't remember exactly where at the moment sorry :-() which might explain more about grades. Otherwise find yourself a copy of the O'Reilly book that covers uucp.

those types,
and I've tried:
./MAKEDEV wcd0
since = it is a=20 standard IDE (ATAPI) cd-rom
using (as root):
mount_cd9660 = /dev/wcd0c=20 /cdrom
and

both give me = :

acd0: read_toc failed
mount_cd9660: Input/output=20 error

While I'm familiar with networking, and network address translation, so some reason I can't get it working on FreeBSD. I'm setting up a weird testing topology to simulate a slow link (serial), so I have a box with an Ethernet card (fixed IP 172.30.224.9) and a PPP (10.0.0.1) connection. I want all connections going to the Ethernet address to be redirected to the machine on the other side of the PPP (10.0.0.2) connection. I have everything working but the redirection. I have used "/sbin/natd -n ex0 -redirect_port tcp 10.0.0.2:80 80" and "-n ex0 -f /etc/natd.conf" with "redirect_port tcp 10.0.0.2:80 80" in the conf file. Neither has worked for me. If I've some how misread the man pages, please feel free to let me know what I'm doing wrong. I'm not on this mailing list, so please include me in any response.

I think one reason no-one has presented 'hard-cold-facts' is because it's hard to nail down. What is the "application" involved? Indeed, such a comparison will probably differ from company to company. You know already about Micro...uh... HotMail and Yahoo and of course Walnut Creek. Perhaps you should take aside two identically configured machines, load Linux on one, FreeBSD on the other, and run them side-by-side gathering stat's for your new company's application. Do the comparison. Hey, maybe Linux is better suited to it than FreeBSD. I don't think you can make a blanket statement that for every conceivable application suite, FreeBSD is better than Linux. Heck, even the Linux distro's differ in their capabilities. I use FreeBSD because I like the order which is inherent in a small team doing the releases, rather than the seemingly chaotic Linux release policy. This is not to say that it actually _is_ chaotic, it just "seems" that way to me. :') Yes, it will come to personal opinion. And I expect that the 'old-guard' Linux'ers will be less-than-enthused at the "new boy" coming in and trying to change to ( obviously superiour) O/S :') Enjoy your new job. I started here in APril this year, and I am still having a blast. Well, execpt for having to get icky-NT-goop on my hands the last couple of days.

You might ask on the freebsd-advocacy mailing list. However, I also think the ability to rebuild the system from source as a means of upgrading is attractive. Depending on what users are doing, this can often be done in multi-user mode and down-time limited to the time it takes to reboot the system (after building and installing a new kernel, of course). The FreeBSD third-party software management is also, I think, better then that of linux systems, but I imagine some linux users would prefer what they have. FreeBSD's ports system handles dependencies very well and makes it possible to configure software before the final build as well.

Of course I knew that there are keymaps in /usr/share/syscons/keymaps But there is no keymap for Turkish and I want to create it but I do not have a keyboard which Turkish letters are printed on it. Also is it a good idea to to look at the keys when creating a keymap? I thought there may be some characters which were not printed on the keyboard but defined in 8859-9 character set. If you say there is no documentation then, Now I can install Turkish keyboard support on my windows and start to try the keys to see what characters they are producing with ALT, CTRL SHIFT, ALT-SHIFT...

When I first started using *nix, I learned GNU Emacs as it was self-documenting, and become proficient fairly quickly, perusing the info files for topics on a need-to-know basis. Eventually I learned most of Emacs Lisp by crafing custom functions. Emacs is a convenient environment to code, compile, and debug in. It's convenient to be able run shells in windows, or to edit files fetched transparently via ftp from another site. I rely heavily on Emac's command, function, and filename completion, and that it operates similarly to that in Bash. Emacs auto-indentation and syntax-highlighting functions are smarter than other editors' because they're lisp programs. One grows accustomed to the fact that one can switch between entering commands and entering text EXTREMELY quickly, by dropping one's pinky or thumb momentarily onto the control or alt keys, rattling off a few commands, and then return to insert= ing text by lifting the digit. It becomes muscle-memory. But Emacs is HUGE and SLOW. Having so much of it written in ELisp has made it flexibile like few other tools, but it has also made it a hog. This was much more important when I was running a 486-based PC in 1995, than it is now, but it's still too big to keep loading and unloading for little editing jobs. One ends up running it all the time, sending files to it with emacsclient. If you live inside Emacs, as many true-believers do, having it running all the time is no big deal. Along the way, I auditioned Jove and Jed, but found myself too spoiled by certain missing Emacs features to aban= don GNU Emacs for them, but they are worth having a gander at, if you're looking for a lightweight Emacs-workalike. After three years of almost exclusive Emacs use, I made the conscious choice to use only Vi, and did so for about a year. My Emacs withdrawal lasted for weeks and weeks. I always seemed to somehow land in command-mode, trying to enter text, having the editor beep mockingly at me. Although I love the efficiency with which one can edit text in Vi, the modal nature of the edit= or still gives me problems with composition because the keystroke-overhead involved in getting into command-mode, making my edits and, returning to my editing position in insert-mode is greater than that of emacs. At first, I thought I could create a very comfortable environment for myself in Vi with macros. I thought I would write a few mode-bouncing macros to give me the basic Emacs character-motion and deletion commands, but I gave up on this because of the nasty behaviour the Vi cursor has when leaving insert-mode, of backing up a character. One can write one's macros to compensate for this behaviour, but then this behaviour does not occur at the beginning of a lin= e, as there is no previous character for the cursor to move to there, so my backward-moving macros would fail crossing line beginnings, and some would fail differently in different versions of Vi. I decided one must use differ= ent composition habits in Vi. Now I'm at the point where after a fifteen minutes re-acclimatization, I can work with either editor, and most of my Emacs macros are in fact, emulating Vi-commands, but I usually come back to Emacs for program development. Among the vi-like editors, I prefer nvi, because it's modest, having a few extras that I find myself wanting, such as filename completion and the capability of editing multiple buffers in multiple windows. Emacs has a few Vi-emulation modes, where one can have the best of both worlds. In Vi-mode, insert mode is like regular emacs, and command mode is like Vi. This to me, is how the perfect editor would feel. There is a niche going unfilled for a lightweight hybrid editor, with modest means and resou= rce usage. It would not try and reinvent Vi or Emacs, but rather distil what is good about both into a small-footprint console-only editor, strong on editi= ng, weak on customization and automation, but good at IPC. --=20 James Bailie =20 http://members.home.net/jazzturk =20 --ikeVEW9yuYc//A+q Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.0 (FreeBSD) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE4TLVy0Fh9wojXfzIRASr5AKDQxJnomWSWuz+VPdYveg5dfE/ezQCfaTuN BL38d6aMY5cGlc7/nlUspS0= =Su2G -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --ikeVEW9yuYc//A+q-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 6 23:24:38 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from geeks.valleyip.net (geeks.valleyip.net [204.248.155.250]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6624614CA2 for ; Mon, 6 Dec 1999 23:24:30 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bgs@geeks.valleyip.net) Received: (from bgs@localhost) by geeks.valleyip.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) id XAA70426 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Mon, 6 Dec 1999 23:24:27 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bgs) From: Brian Skrab Message-Id: <199912070724.XAA70426@geeks.valleyip.net> Subject: Multi-link PPP w/ 2 ISDN TAs ???

At first thought, the idea sounds rather silly, but it turns out that they are located in a somewhat remote part of town as far as the telephone company is concerned. So, the only telecommunications circuits they can use beyond POTS lines are ISDN and T1. Since a T1 line is quite out of their budget, they are looking to try putting two ISDN lines together to expand their bandwidth. So, I began to think... I've setup a FreeBSD box with an external ISDN TA and configured PPP to talk to it just like an external analog modem. I've seen a FreeBSD box configured to use 2+ analog modems to add bandwidth to create a slightly larger "channel" for Internet traffic. So, why couldn't one simply hang two ISDN terminal adapters off of a pair of serial ports and configure PPP multi-link the two lines to create a 256k Internet connection? Does my reasoning sound right? Has anyone tried this (with any success)? Any suggestions, opinions, and/or recommendations will be very much appreciated.

To me, more than enough for as workstations. We are currently running Win95, which is very unsatisfactory over the arena of security (we have FoolProof, which gets broken daily) and stability. After seening my little demostration on FreeBSD 3.2 with KDE, my teacher wants to convert to FreeBSD. However, our currentl entry level computer science classes are done in Visual Basic, which enables my teacher to do much more of the "fun" (multimedia) stuff. I am wondering if there is anything similar to Visual Basic, HyperCard, SuperCard, or anything that resembles click, point, and type? :) Is Visual Basic on top of WINE stable right now? I'm open to suggestion. Thanks for you input in advance!

I personally run BSD on my servers and Linux on a few desktops. I am getting ready to get rid of Linux and quite frankly don't want to touch it with a ten foot pole myself anymore. Just two days ago I had to recompile a Linux kernel to add support for a new device. This in itself isn't a problem since I would probobly have to do the same in FreeBSD but the process in Linux was a horror. I suppose it is possible that my problems with Linux stem from the fact the I "grew up" on BSD but I really think that the BSD systems just have it together better than Linux. My first mistake with building a Linux kernel was making it to big. I don't really know why it matters but it does. Next I had to deal with the conflicting documentation for building the kernel, which both seemed to conflict with the reality. I eventually managed to get the kernel in the right place and coaxed lilo into using it. Now I rebooted and was greeted with "Out of memory System halted" There doesn't seem to be any way of selecting your old kernel from the boot prompt so I decided to download the "rescue" disk from RedHat ( well actually from cdrom.com, RedHat server was too busy ) I eventually discovered that 6.1 apparently doesn't have a rescue disk so I picked up the 6.0 disks rebooted my system and put my old kernel back in place ( using the lilo command on my hard drive since it doesn't seem to be on the rescue disk for some reason ) Next I went back to kernel configuration and disabled everything that I could find that I didn't think I needed and repeated the process ( from my own pseudo documentation ) and it started up right. Now I was faced with the problem that the driver for the device didn't seem to recognize the device. I found a howto that told me that I needed to set some options but it didn't tell me how to go about setting them. Also it seems that not all the drivers use the same syntax for options, one might use io=0x300 and another might use base=0x300. I added the appropriate options to the modules.conf but upon reboot they seemed to be ignored. I tried putting in at the boot prompt but they were also ignored. I finally looked at the source for the driver and found that it can't be passed options unless it is compiled as a module separate from the kernel. So here we go again rebuilding a the kernel. Success finally. It only took me a day and a half! I have had on three occasions needed to rebuild my Linux ( RedHat ) kernel. Two of those occasions resulted in a non functional system and I had to fall back to booting from the rescue set of floppies. Thank god it was a desktop and not a server. In FreeBSD and BSDi I have rebuilt the kernel dozens of times and have only had a problem once but was able to pick my old kernel from the boot prompt. My main complaint about Linux is documentation. There is loads of documentation for Linux and none of it seems very useful. It either contradicts other documentation or it is a Howto that is horribly out of date. I also can't seem to find a mailing list archive anywhere but there might be one. RedHat's site doens't seem to make it easy to find anything. I stumbled onto the redhat-install mailing list by accident but I still haven't found an archive. If I have a problem with FreeBSD the answer is either in the handbook or in the mailing list archives. I have never needed to look at source except out of curiosity. Keeping a FreeBSD system up to date is a piece of cake with cvsup. I am quite frankly am still not quite sure what the appropriate way of keeping a Linux system up to date is short of buying another CD. Keeping packages/ports up to date is FAR easier with for me with FreeBSD. Dependancies are handled for me. I had less trouble getting Gnome working under FreeBSD that I did under Linux! I just went into the appropriate ports directory and ran make. In Linux I had to download a dozen or so RPM files that didn't want to install because replacing the old libraries would break dependancies for other applications so I had to use the --force option ( advice which I found after quite some time searching the web rather than a few minutes searching a mailing list archive ). I don't care what anybody says the BSD kernel config file is a thing of beauty compared Linux's process. All in all Linux seems to me like a hodge podge of software that isn't quite done yet and FreeBSD seems like a professionally put together complete package. I'd much rather maintain any BSD.

Apart from not reading the syslog.conf(5) manual page? :-) For a start, there's no such facility as ``squid''. If you want all the messages from squid to go into /var/log/quid, you want something more like: !squid *.* /var/log/squid Also, the /var/log/squid file _must_ exist _before_ you HUP the syslogd process (or reboot). It can be empty, but it must exist. All this is explained in the syslog.conf(5) manual page, by the way. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.

If it is recognized as, say, /dev/wd1 (for the sake of the argument) then you can dump a complete partition as dump -0uaf /dev/wd1 /dev/wd0s1a The flags are: 0 - make a total as opposed to an incremental backup a - go on until the tape is at the end (unless the backup is copmplete by then) u - log successful dumps to /etc/dumpdates f - dump to device specified (can actually be a file too!) Note that you can only dump partitions with dump, for files and/or directories you use the tar command. And if your drive also exists in a version with an 'r' prepended (a la /dev/rwd1), this is a rewinding device - it rewinds after completion, the device /dev/nrwd1 is a non rewinding device and simply stops where it is when the dump command is finished. In the latter case you can have multiple dumps on one tape easily, in the former you would have to scan forward to end of recording and then dump anew. (For SCSI the command 'mt fsf 1' spins 1 record forward, ie. one dump.) /Micke > > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message ---------------------------------- Michael Josefsson, MSEE mj@isy.liu.se This message was sent by XFMail running on FreeBSD 3.1 ---------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 7 2: 2:16 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from axl.noc.iafrica.com (axl.noc.iafrica.com [196.31.1.175]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6553614F92 for ; Tue, 7 Dec 1999 02:02:09 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from sheldonh@axl.noc.iafrica.com) Received: from sheldonh (helo=axl.noc.iafrica.com) by axl.noc.iafrica.com with local-esmtp (Exim 3.11 #1) id 11vHRT-000IIz-00; Tue, 07 Dec 1999 12:01:55 +0200 From: Sheldon Hearn To: wonko@entropy.tmok.com Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: let's get something straight.

You must be joking. With all that UNIX experience, you honestly expect a personalized answer on a topic that's been discussed to death on just about every FreeBSD-related mailing list too many times already? Come on, is it that hard to imagine that people are just sick to death of discussing it and would prefer you to read up on what's been said already? :-) > maybe i should have prefaced it with something to that effect, but i > didn't and i apologize for that. however, i don't feel that getting > jumped on was an apropriate resonse. Who jumped on you? I don't see any aggression in the messages that were copied back to the list. Perhaps you're just unhappy that you weren't spoonfed the answer? Ciao, Sheldon.

Brian, I'm sorry that you're not finding what you're looking for. The fact of the matter may very well be, however, that what you're looking for does not exist. Anecdotes are not hard-facts of the sort, say, Mindspring's controlled benchmarks produce. If Mindspring were to do one of their comparisons between Linux and FreeBSD, my guess is that Linux would beat FreeBSD for some things, and FreeBSD would beat Linux for others. But no such controlled benchmarks have been published. As many people have said time and again, the situation that the OS is implemented into determines everything. In this case, the best you can probably do is to inventory all of the subjunctives that are entailed by the prospect of running FreeBSD at your place of work. Consider one of your Linux systems - chances are, you could make a considerable list of the administrative tasks that 'would be' simplified and improved were that machine running FreeBSD. CVSup is an invaluable tool for keeping FreeBSD up todate, in comparison with x number of hours spent trying to keep the scattered fragments of a linux system updated. Same case with the FreeBSD ports collection, in comparison with hunting down obscure libraries, and the programs themselves, for a Linux system. The 'hard facts' are the number of dollars saved in time spent. Log your hours, they add up. Arguments of this sort are probably your best bet. Anecdotes might be more effective if you got them right from the horses mouth - try contacting Yahoo or the Walnut Creek system admins, and ask them for some uptime stats, etc.. Any evidence that you compile might help some future person in your shoes, if you made it available.

I'm not sure that the two are related if you're using a modern FreeBSD. It's possible you have a buggy inetd, but you'd need to send us the output of the following command: ident /usr/sbin/inetd It may simply be that it's coincidental that you've noticed these messages while you're verifying your /etc/hosts.allow configuration. The messages indicates that a call to fork() failed because creating a new process would break the maxproc limit in the kernel. You'll find the code which generates the error message in src/sys/kern/kern_fork.c The maxproc variable is declared in src/sys/conf/param.c or src/sys/i386/conf/param.c depending on the version of FreeBSD you're using. You'll see that it's a function of the kernel configuration value ``maxusers''. If you have maxusers set very low (say 16), you might want to bump it up, provided that you're simply running a large number of processes. NB!!! You bump maxusers by changing your custom kernel config file, not by mucking about with param.c! :-) But let us know what version of inetd you're running by supplying the output of the ident command above and we'll be able to tell you whether you have a buggy version.

Isn't it kinda obvious? :-) You're running the GENERIC kernel on the 3.3-RELEASE machine, but your own custom kernel on the 3.2-RELEASE machine. So look at the differences between 3.3-RELEASE's GENERIC kernel config and your own custom "AMAYA" kernel config. Have fun! Sheldon.

Use CVS instead of CVSup, or use CVSup to pull the source repository instead of the source files themselves and then use CVS to update a local copy from the local repository. Which way you do it will depend on your available disk space. The disadvantage of using CVS is that it's slower than CVSup. It has _loads_ of cool points over CVSup, though. :-) See chapter 18 of the online FreeBSD Handbook for more information: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/cutting-edge.html Specifically, 18.3 will be of interest to you.

If you let anyone talk you into using Windows emulation in your environment, just make damn sure you test it for yourself before you mention this to your teacher. I can almost guarantee you that the results would have him switch back to Wintendo in no time. The biggest problem you face, though, is that your teacher has a Wintendo-centric curriculum. Until he or she decides that an alternative curriculum is acceptable, you're up shit creek. :-( If your teacher is prepared to go far out, there's always tcl/tk, which I've always thought of as the Visual Basic of X. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.

It looks like you've updated your sources since 3.2-RELEASE, but you have pre-3.3-RELEASE sources. Can you update your inetd sources to the latest ones? A number of bugs have been fixed in inetd since 1.46.2.8 and, although my money's on inetd.conf and hosts.allow, it's worth a shot updating. Ciao, Sheldon.

Every time I start moving them, the box dies within between 1 and 3 minutes. I've tried mounting it as follows: mount_nfs -o intr,soft some.machine.where.it's.shared:/vol/share /destination I've also tried using the following: nfsv2 nfsv3 mntudp and also with plain old: mount_nfs some.machine.where.it's.shared:/vol/share /destination I've tried grabbing the latest source for stable (which is now 3.4rc) and still, the machine just hangs after a while. This is when I'm moving files off a local disk and onto the share..... Any suggestions would be appreciated, even my windows box is more stable atm :( Regards --Rob One Unix to rule them all, One Resolver to find them, One IP to bring them all and in the zone to bind them.

But for easier GUI development, you could use tcl/tk, which per default doesn't have a point&click GUI builder, iirc, but I think something like that is available for purchase from Scriptics (the tcl/tk creator, John Ousterhout's company (www.scriptics.com)). Tcl/tk also has the advantage that it's freely available so it's ideal for coursework (you only have to pay if you want one of the addon products that scriptics produces).

I am currently having a problem of initializing the ethernet card which is intergrated with the motherboard. I believe it is probed as 3c5x9 at 0x250. However, I can not seem to get it going. I edited the rc.conf file and added statement interfaces="ed0" and give it an IP address of 10.0.0.1 but for some reasons it would not show up after I rebooted. I verified it by issuing ifconfig -a. Is there any thing else I needed to do to get this card going? Your advise is much appreciated.

In fact, you can't in a way syslogd would like: the only way to create a socket is with bind (correct me if I'm wrong here), and if the socket exists syslogd's bind call would fail with EADDRINUSE. syslogd should create it when it calls bind(2).

I believe that software still sets the port at 115,200, but the hardware is running at the higher speeds because of the oscillator.

I want it to forward port 666 from the external IP to an Internal FTP server running on port 666 (running Windows Serv-U - I have no influence on this machine :) ) The BSD is not running IPFIREWALL, just natd. When configured as below, the only thing I can do, is connect to the FTP from machines with real IP adresses and not using passive FTP. This probably works, because the internal FTP can open data-ports with no restrictions to the machine on the Internet. But whenever a client behind a firewall some place tries, it wount work, because then the internal FTP isn´t allowed to communicate on other ports to the client. This is where passive FTP comes into the picture as far as I understand, this means, that every port that needs to be opened to the FTP will be opened from the client. So, i I ran a TCPDUMP on the BSD on the external interface, and tried to connect to the internal FTP using passive FTP, login and password no problems. Then I tried to do a LS, and thought this is where id probably see some new ports opening, but I didnt??? So how is this done??? The 3.3-RELEASE is configured with this: firewall_enable="YES" firewall_script="/etc/rc.firewall" firewall_type="open" natd_enable="YES" natd_flags="-f /etc/rc.natd" natd_interface="ed1" and rc.natd: use_sockets same_ports redirect_port tcp 192.168.2.101:666 666 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /\/\orten $eeberg, Systems Consultant @ Merkantildata - Enterprise Solutions #echo 'System Administrators suck :)' > /dev/console To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 7 7:47:28 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from weg.com.br (weg.com.br [200.215.119.129]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 13CDD15328 for ; Tue, 7 Dec 1999 07:46:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from fatboy@linuxbr.com.br) Received: by weg.com.br from localhost (router,SLMail V2.7); Tue, 07 Dec 1999 12:46:52 -0200 Received: by weg.com.br from jackson.weg.com.br (130.0.10.196::mail daemon; unverified,SLMail V2.7); Tue, 07 Dec 1999 12:46:45 -0200 Message-ID: <002a01bf40ca$24b9efc0$c40a0082@weg.com.br> From: "Jackson Donadel" To: Subject: Speed/Configuration Date: Tue, 7 Dec 1999 13:45:48 -0200 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_0027_01BF40B9.5E91BCC0" X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2314.1300 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0027_01BF40B9.5E91BCC0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi ALL First - Speed I running natd on my box, and some times the internet connection = come slowwwwwwwwwwwwww, that i need recall the ISP.

No. One cool thing about CVS is that it tries to deal gracefully with local modifications to your checked out source when it has to apply deltas from the repository -- which is _exactly_ what you're looking for. If the delta from the repo overlaps with a local modification you've made to the file, a CVS conflict occurs. The file is modified for your attention. It's up to you to resolve the conflict, which is usually easy. When a CVS conflict occurs, CVS complains about it. So as long as you're saving the output of your CVS runs, you'll always know about conflicts. Ciao, Sheldon.

Sounds like it is. Now, is there an easy way to do this *only* for this file? I already have nice little scripts set up to do my cvsup upgrades, and i don't think it makes sense to change everything now.. unless.. i'm ready to move to the next level. But i don't have a lot of space or bandwidth to spare. Do you mean i can just run CVS separately on that module?

That was based on BSD so going from that to FreeBSD felt very comfortable. -When I was first looking at using PC systems to run things like DNS and other services that needed to be up 24 x 7 my Linux installs didn't seem to fair to well compared to my FreeBSD installs. Keep in mind this was more than 3 years ago, things have changed I'm sure ( ie: I hope that Linux is more stable than it was back then ). -Centralized development. Not everyone things of this as plus, but I sure like it. Having web access to the cvs tree has helped on more than once track down what's going one between upgrades. -My feelings that an OS is kernel+userland. Again this is something that many people may not agree with me on, but I like knowing that the FreeBSD kernel is being developed in conjunction with one userland ( not many ). -The ports collection. What can I say, I love that thing :-) -Strives to have a logical and consitant layout. To be honest I've never done benchmarks or any serious testing between Linux and FreeBSD. Over three years ago when I had to decide between the two FreeBSD did a better job, since then I've never had a reason to give up on FreeBSD. I'm not sure if this exactly what you are looking for, hopefully it will help. -- Joseph Scott joseph.scott@owp.csus.edu Office Of Water Programs - CSU Sacramento To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 7 8:40:12 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from axl.noc.iafrica.com (axl.noc.iafrica.com [196.31.1.175]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 22F6A14BE0 for ; Tue, 7 Dec 1999 08:40:06 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from sheldonh@axl.noc.iafrica.com) Received: from sheldonh (helo=axl.noc.iafrica.com) by axl.noc.iafrica.com with local-esmtp (Exim 3.11 #1) id 11vNee-0002yn-00; Tue, 07 Dec 1999 18:39:56 +0200 From: Sheldon Hearn To: Jonathon McKitrick Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: changing source before make world In-reply-to: Your message of "Tue, 07 Dec 1999 16:29:40 GMT."

Yep, life's a bitch. Without investigating more closely _which_ facility and level each of the kinds of messages you're getting are at, and possibly recompiling squid, there's no easy way to have the messages match one rule but not another in /etc/syslog.conf . :-( > Is it posible to stop geting the squid log in /var/log/messages? As I said, no easy way. You could have a look at the squid sources and try to figure out what facility and level it's using to log its errors. Then, just change the facility and / or level for all its messages to something that you _don't_ trap in /etc/syslog.conf except with your !squid tag. Ciao, Sheldon.

I used to use an SIIG high-speed serial card with the Startech 16650 UART to drive my ISDN TA. There's jumpers on the card to overclock the UART 1x, 2x and 4x (for 430kbs). Note that you need a reasonably late version of FreeBSD to recognise the 16650 and enable the larger FIFO (also need to set some flags, IIRC). Worked great, modulo a few "silo overflow" messages. I ended up running the card at the 2x setting (for 230kbs), as my ISP didn't offer STAC compression anyway. HTH.

How am I to know when I haven't seen your scripted solution? :-) All I can say is that I had a scripted solution which I was very proud of until my mentor showed me CVS. However, I'm not restricted to dial-up most of the time. When I _was_ using dial-up, it certainly _felt_ like CVS was slower than CVSup, but I wasn't watching closely. Perhaps you could do some benchmarking and gimme some information for the Handbook? :-) Later, Sheldon.

This is due to a bug in the driver. I think Soren knows about this, and has commited a fix in -current, which should show up in a -release here sometime. The workaround I found was to boot with a disc in the drive. Then I can mount cds. Woody On Mon, 6 Dec 1999, Daniel Schrock wrote: > Hello, > > I'm having problems with my CD-Rom.

I don't know. We're going to have to take a look. How are you partitioning your disk? How many slices (Microsoft partitions) , how many (FreeBSD) partitions? How big are they?

The only problem I have is that if the modem loses power you have to re-train it before it will answer. Is their a way to get around this need to re-train or automatically train it before the modem answers each caller? Thanks all for your help James A.

It will also log it so you can be sure it was done.

The master.passwd file is compatible, but the encryption's compatibility seems variable. The FreeBSD system has been converted to use DES passwords. A cracking tool tells me that the BSDI passwords are "BSDI extended DES". The BSDI system allows the option of 128 character passwords for certain users. All tests were conducted on <=8 character passwords. Some work, and some don't. I'd like to get some idea of why or how likely it is that the majority would work, or if there is anything I can do to improve the situation. This comes up a lot in the archives, where I see questions and suggestions (use DES), but no reporting of outcomes. Has anyone actually succeeded at this task?

The only clues I've found so far, point to sendmail with procmail as a delivery agent, which calls a perl script to filter out attachments when any but a select few from fields are matched. Perl would use the mime module to help figure out what was an attachment and what was not. It seems like procmail may be a bit redundant, but may keep me from needing to write the delivery agent in perl. Has anyone out there seen anything like this done before?

It looks as though it called accept for its TCP socket before the TCP socket was ready (looks like a bug). Because of this it was completely ignoring all UDP requests arriving on the UDP socket, so the machine became rather useless as an NFS server. I killed portmap and all RPC registered services to fix this... If I had bothered to think for a bit longer, simply establishing a connection to its TCP port would probably have kicked it back to life, but we never think of the obvious thing at the time.

Unfortunately after installing additional ram to help speed up the system I have had no luck determining why the memory is used up as soon as I start the system. The system serves webpages only, so Apache and sendmail are really my only programs running. I've taken the following measurements from 'top' in case it helps anyone, while running normally my system shows: 784M Active 46M Inactive 129M Wired 34M Cache 8M Buffer 3M Free After stopping Apache (leaving approximately 20 megs of programs and system utilities left running I get the following numbers) 577M Active 46M Inactive 111M Wired 29M Cache 8M Buffer 236M Free My question mainly pertains to why the system is not 'freeing' up the memory even though it is not actually doing anything. I'm assuming that could be the reason I'm having such a hard time with system response. Telnet sessions are almost impossible until Apache is killed, and FTPing isn't much better. Anyone's help would be greatly appreciated...

Update the Windows machines on your internal natd'd network to use the same name-server as your gateway box. What are the contents of /etc/resolv.conf? Cheers.

And as far as I know, it does *not* have a 'soft copy' on the included CDs. Those CDs are a release (?3.2) of FreeBSD.

I really can't say, there are known problems when the CDrom is in certain positions on the IDE bus, I would suggest shuffling it around to other places, FreeBSD particularly hates IDE CDroms on the second IDE channel set as a slave. > 2.

Is this machine acting as a router/natd machine? Just a workstation on a LAN? Is there anything about your setup that you can think of that might be related to the problem? A bit more detail would be helpfull. Try using ctrl-alt-f1 (or more accurately, fx, where x is the tty# that you started XFree86 from) to check to see if there were any errors sent to stdout, before quiting X. (Use ctrl-alt-f7 to get back).

In the short term what I'd like to know is how usable is Darwin. And how well its supports Apple's PowerBooks. Specifically the current model of PowerBook G3 333 MHz. All I've been able to find out so far is a statement that Darwin supports all the hardware Mac OS X does, and Mac OS X doesn't do "server" functions on PowerBooks. Disappointed because that sounds like a deliberate handicap worthy of Microsoft. Thinking after Christmas might be a good time to buy my first laptop and I'd rather have a dual boot MacOS/BSD system than a Windows/BSD system. And that its just possible Darwin will run better on PowerBooks than finding the right compatible wintel laptop for FreeBSD. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

Try reducing /USR to, say, 25 GB and see what happens. It's possible we're running into something unexpected there. You should also call it /usr; lots of programs expect this name.

Assume nothing. :-) Try watching mbuf utilization while you're running nmap, ideally in another xterm or on another console. You can do this with: while true; do netstat -m ; sleep 1 ; done Once you have a screen's worth of data, watching the output should get easier on the eyes. :-) Particularly, watch the "mbufs in use" ratio.

Anyone's help would be greatly appreciated... FreeBSD keeps file data cached in memory whenever possible. I'd guess that your slowness is due to network congestion (which goes away after you kill off Apache) and not the system itself. -DG David Greenman Co-founder/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project - http://www.freebsd.org Creator of high-performance Internet servers - http://www.terasolutions.com Pave the road of life with opportunities.

See /usr/share/skel/dot.profile This file should be installed as .profile into the home directory of every new account you create. This allows individual users to see at a glance what defaults are set for them and provides a template which they can modify to change those defaults. If you were to put all that stuff in /etc/profile, you'd have two problems: 1) You don't want all of it set for automated processes which exec a shell to do some work. 2) Your newbies might struggle to find out _where_ the stuff was being done. So in actual fact, the way we do things now is actually to _help_ newbies, not to make it hard for them. :-) Later, Sheldon.

I have two Linksys NC100's. These may be the LNE100TX re-packaged, and then they may not; I don't have any for comparison. I was completely unsuccessful in getting two of these cards to work on the PCI bus of this crappy Dell P60 motherboard I'm running. I finally gave up, and installed one ISA card and one PCI card just to get on with life. Error messages varied, including those of the continuous "unable to send", "unable to complete", "no response from", variety. Also hard hangs, and on the occasional boot, mx1 would not even be seen! DOS diags failed when both cards were in the box, and passed when one card was installed. Just thought I'd toss that out there, in case the driver developer doesn't know about the cards yet. I'm sure CompUSA sold a ton of 'em at $20/ea. /// Rob To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 8 5:13:20 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mailout03.btx.dtag.de (mailout03.btx.dtag.de [194.25.2.151]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 43B1A155DC for ; Wed, 8 Dec 1999 05:13:13 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from p.murrer@jilka.de) Received: from fmrl00.btx.dtag.de ([194.25.2.176]) by mailout03.btx.dtag.de with smtp id 11vgu2-0000eR-00; Wed, 8 Dec 1999 14:13:06 +0100 Received: from jm-mta.jilka-intern.de (320056691133-0002(btxid)@[193.159.81.182]) by fmrl00.btx.dtag.de with smtp id ; Wed, 8 Dec 1999 14:12:58 +0100 Received: by jm-mta.jilka-intern.de with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) id ; Wed, 8 Dec 1999 14:09:37 +0100 Message-ID: <71374C86479FD311ACD700105A6767D20164C9@jm-mta.jilka-intern.de> From: "Murrer, Peter" To: "'freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG'" Subject: Information Date: Wed, 8 Dec 1999 14:09:34 +0100 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" X-Sender: 320056691133-0002@t-dialin.net Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello!

Probably someone could give me comprehensive info on this: options FDESC options KERNFS options NULLFS options UMAPFS options PORTAL options UNION I need as much on this as possible. I have some ?s already. 1) I thought that these babies will allow me to have approx the same as /proc under linux, since PROCFS in FBSD yields me _pathetic_ stuff. However, I get /proc/fd dir, with filedescrs (apparently), but there's no FDESC option enabled in GENERIC kernel. Ideas? 2) KERNFS. Is it behaviour the same as of procfs? Meaning, I have to have a /proc (/kern) and apporpriate line in /etc/fstab, and I cannot mount it after boot? (are my last 3 questions correct?)

No question, it works without anything, just plain mpg123, very good. mpg123 http://www.rz.uni-frankfurt.de/~recktenw/vertigo/roi24.mp3 is ok with a 56k modem. But this is not the same if I put this into netscape. the .mailcap looks now more or less like Ollis, well I dont know which secrets were inside his shell scripts ;-), how he makes m3us work etc, voila: [snipp] mpg123 %s. This "%s" has the effect, that Netscape loads the file first onto the hd, before playing, it plays some local temp file, not the remote one. Is there any alternative to "%s", that gives mpg123 the remote file, aka URL ??

My problem was that I had two 34 GB drives, and couldn't use the standard tools to fdisk and diskslice them without getting a failure on newfs that said "read only filesystem". Although the responses I got were generally helpful, they were mostly along the lines of "there are no known problems with this" so it must be something I'm doing wrong. After reading all the man pages and doing everything verbatim according to the instructions, with the right geometry, etc. many times, I was still unable to succeed even though Win98 could fdisk and format the things immediately. I eventually gave up trying to install them individually, and succeeded in getting them to work with vinum, and newfs succeeded on the collective volume, although I was never able to use their full size. I ended up having to make the filesystems smaller than the full size in order to make FreeBSD able to newfs them without failing. This lengthy and exhausting experience combined with yours and another similar question posed here leads me to believe there is a real software problem that hasn't been addressed. In the mean time, I simply won't install drives larger than 17 GB (which I have several of, and install via exactly the same means with no problems whatsoever) until I hear that the problem has been resolved. I really wish I could be of more help in resolving this problem, instead of just complaining about it, but unfortunately, I can't afford to be without these drives to keep testing it over and over - I had to get them going because they were needed for important work, even if it meant using them at less than their full size. I believe between the two 34 gig drives I ended up getting about 58 usable gigabytes, and although the whole experience scares me about their reliability, they've tested successfully for over a week in heavy usage. Hopefully someone will get a grip on this one. If there's anything I can do to help, other than taking my drives offline again (which I know might be the only helpful thing) I'd be glad to do it.

Almost every cable modem in existence only supports 10 mbit/half duplex, because the cable modems don't really go faster than that anyway. It's extremely probable the cable modem is limiting the speed the network card can negotiate.

I think it's caused when I enable DMA on my AOpen AP58 motherboard (some SiS chipset, I forget what). Machine is 3.3-STABLE; I just assumed that there was some problem/lack of support with the SiS chipset, disabled DMA, and left it at that.

(Performance was not > really important) Given that Joe says he has already removed flags from his kernel config (thus disabling DMA), I'd say that it must be a cabling problem -- unless of course he changed his kernel config without actually compiling, installing and booting the new kernel. ;-) Ciao, Sheldon.

That should be enough to get you started. If you are just doing a report and briefly touching on FreeBSD, that should be more than enough info. There are plenty of other resources at the official site which you can search. In a nutshell, FreeBSD is Unix, and one of the best flavors as well. It excels as a file or webserver, and also offers a great deal of stability for workstation use. It isn't always easy to install (getting better) but it is easy to maintain and very reliable. Plus, we can emulate Linux and several other versions of Unix to run their binaries as well. -jm On Wed, 8 Dec 1999, Murrer, Peter wrote: > Hello! > I have to make a report about operating systems in school. > And so i am searching for information about freebsd. > Maybe you can send me some?? > I collect nearly everything. > The post adress is > > EDV-Service > z.

Ideas? /proc is very adequate in doing what its job is: displaying information specific to individual processes and not system-wide kernel specific stuff. The system-wide stuff goes in KERNFS.

You can mount it fine after boot, in fact, you can umount and mount procfs as well, there's just no good reason to be doing so. Here's my line from /etc/fstab: kern /kern kernfs rw 0 0 As far as fdescfs, it is already "mounted" for you at /dev/fd. If you want, you can mount it somewhere else as well.

Hi,
I'm using the parallel port = to control=20 some sort of a hardware (i2c). For that I generate pulses using the ppi = device=20 (geek port). The problem is that in some cases, the pulse isn't=20 generated. What I do is sending an ioctl to make the device high = (1) and=20 another ioctl to set the device low (0). It seems that in some cases, = the two=20 commands arrive together to the device so the pulse isn't wide=20 enough.
Does the ppbus layer stores = the ioctl's=20 in some sort of a buffer and than flushes its content to the=20 hardware?
If so, is there a way to = control=20 it?
The=20 pulses should be in fixed size, so any other idea will be=20 welcomed.

For example in English keyboard shift 2 is @ sign but in finnish keyboard it is ALT 2 and in Turkish keyboard it is ALT Q !!! So I have lots of work to do here. I have a finnish keyboard here but in Windows I can set the keyboard just like in Turkish one but just when I press some finnish character keys then I get Turkish characters and some symbols are at different place so I have to try all the keys and then make a keymap. By the way in those keymap files there are different values for some fields nop, nul, em, dc1, dc2... , nak, ht, si,... Where can I find information about their meanings? Also the last question! I made a font for 8x16 successfully and tested it but also I made a font for 8x8, how can I test it? Thanks!

IOW, you would be able to get a socket to a remote machine's web server by opening the file //80/. umapfs is used to remap UID's. It sits on top of another filesystem and simply adds a remapping layer. Thus, you could have all the files owned by joe appear to be owned by user bob in the umapfs mount. nullfs just passes all requests through to the lower layer. It can be used to remount a filesystem in a loopback underneath its original mountpoint. mount_portal(8), mount_null(8), and mount_umap(8) have more information in them >> > 1) I thought that these babies will allow me to have approx the same as >> > /proc under linux, since PROCFS in FBSD yields me _pathetic_ stuff. >> > However, I get /proc/fd dir, with filedescrs (apparently), but there's no >> > FDESC option enabled in GENERIC kernel.

Same with /kern.... Why does it matter whether they or mounted or how many times they are mounted? They aren't used to run the system, they merely provide statistical data. They are not required fs's in FreeBSD. The only required fs is /. >> As far as fdescfs, it is already "mounted" for you at /dev/fd. If you want, >> you can mount it somewhere else as well.

According to fdesc(5), it's union mounted on top of /dev, but I think it's more tricky than that. Both the underlying /dev and fdescfs need to write to different parts of /dev, so I'm guessing a straight union mount wouldn't work. > Cheers, > > ./danfe -- John Baldwin -- http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ PGP Key: http://www.cslab.vt.edu/~jobaldwi/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 8 8:34:18 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mofo.theta-chi.net (adsl-63-195-32-82.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net [63.195.32.82]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EE2181556E for ; Wed, 8 Dec 1999 08:34:13 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from leonard@mofo.theta-chi.net) Received: from localhost (leonard@localhost) by mofo.theta-chi.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id IAA18341; Wed, 8 Dec 1999 08:36:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from leonard@mofo.theta-chi.net) Date: Wed, 8 Dec 1999 08:36:16 -0800 (PST) From: Leonard To: Dan Nelson Cc: Andrzej Szydlo , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: NATd: tons of "failed to write packet back" errors In-Reply-To: <19991208095826.A36378@dan.emsphone.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Wed, 8 Dec 1999, Dan Nelson wrote: As Andrzej suggested, I changed my ruleset a bit to: 00050 109413 55717767 divert 8668 ip from any to any via rl0 00100 26 1368 allow ip from any to any via lo0 00150 20 4740 allow log logamount 100 ip from 63.195.32.82 to 127.0.0.0/8 00200 44 10428 deny log logamount 100 ip from any to 127.0.0.0/8 65000 17992518 10913864723 allow ip from any to any 65535 0 0 deny ip from any to any Everything is working fine now.

You're certainly not overlooking anything in CFBSD. I've done some investigation, and it seems that just about nobody is using IDE drives this large. There are plenty of SCSI drives out there, with file systems over 100 GB, but nobody has reported putting FreeBSD partitions of over 32 GB on an IDE disk. We're currently in the process of changing the IDE driver, so it's very unlikely that the one you're using will get fixed, even if there is a bug. I'd recommend to add a second slice to your disk to take up the other 9 GB or so, and put another file system on it. You'd end up with something like this: /dev/wd0s1a 80 MB / /dev/wd0s1b 320 MB swap /dev/wd0s1h 25 GB /usr /dev/wd0s2h 9 GB /var I'd guess that that will work, though we could still be in for surprises.

(remember i haven't touched Linux is several years now, but i don't really think it has changed in this respect anyway) now do the same thing with FreeBSD. thanks to cvsup and a largely independant configuration system you can load all the system update commands into a script and have it run by cron once a week/month/whatever. as long as there aren't any real changes to the systems setup you don't ever have to change the config. most current version of the OS (kernel+userland) zero effort. with Linux you have to do 'make config' and then load your configuration into the config program so it can build a real config file for building the kernel. it's just plain messy. > > > > > >Now I rebooted and was greeted with "Out of memory System halted" > >There doesn't seem to be any way of selecting your old kernel > >from the boot prompt so I decided to download the "rescue" disk actually there is, but you have to think ahead and put it into lilo to be able to boot from it. but if you forget...... > >I finally looked at the source for the driver and found that it > >can't be passed options unless it is compiled as a module separate > >from the kernel.

In-Reply-To: <199912081734.MAA10773@entropy.tmok.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Just a few thoughts, on what i know about the technical side: 1. The FreeBSD filesystem is slightly slower but far more reliable after a crash than Linux in many cases (NOTE: not all). 2. The virtual memory management in FreeBSD is more efficient than in Linux, and this supposedly explains why it performs better under load. 3. FreeBSD doesn't use run levels, and this simplifies maintenance. 4. From a common sense standpoint, a system that is designed from the ground up to be integrated will be far easier to maintain than one where only the kernel is controlled and everything around it is a matter of interpretation. 5. If you choose Linux, you will likely have to choose one flavor and stay with it, because every distro seems to have a different way of doing some of the smaller things (don't ask for examples, i know directories is one but that's it) and switching from one to another can break the system. 6. Linux fragmentation causes lots of incompatability. Notice when Linux users talk: They start with the Linux distro, then the kernel version, then sometimes libc5 or glibc, then various drivers/modules/options, followed by the hardware list. In FreeBSD it's 'Hi everyone, I'm running X.X -yyyy on a ...' and that's it. It's more coherent, and that means lesslikely to break. Do i have numbers or details? No. But any good sysadmin will at least listen to good reasons like these. Besides, stats can always be slanted and biased.

I just upgraded to proftpd-pre9 which seems to have broken my chroot scheme that was working fine before with pre2.... I hope someone can help... For each user, I have an ftponly shell that they get assigned to when the account is set up and they are chrooted in the password file like thus... ambooks:pass.:6101:6101::0:0:Bookmaster:/www/domain/htdocs/books/america/./: /bin/ftponly This keeps the ambooks user in his directory and not allow them to cd up... which is working fine. ambooks is a member of the group books. However, what's not working is the permissions on files and such for the user books - this user is chrooted to /www/domain/htdocs/books/ (one level above the user ambooks) and should be able to add, edit, delete files for them or anyone who is a member of books, such as ambooks. This worked in pre2 but not in pre9 - now I get a permission denied error when user books tries to overwrite a file owned by user:group ambooks:books In my /usr/local/etc/proftpd.conf file I have these pertinent entries: DefaultRoot ~ ftponly DefaultRoot ~ books AllowOverwrite on In my /etc/group file, I have this entry books:*:6100:ambooks,books books is both a user and a group I'm not running virtual hosts, and there are a number of DefaultRoot directives (21) which worked prior to the pre9 upgrade. Anyone have any ideas of why the user books would get a permission denied error trying to overwrite or upload files belonging to user:group ambooks:books Jerry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 8 11:29: 0 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from smtp.tsi-net.com (smtp.tsi-net.com [207.202.145.135]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B866C15C6A for ; Wed, 8 Dec 1999 11:23:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from james3838@tsi-net.com) Received: from mins05 ([131.107.88.65]) by smtp.tsi-net.com (8.9.1/8.9.1) with SMTP id LAA07526; Wed, 8 Dec 1999 11:23:43 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <027401bf41b1$82e33b50$41586b83@mins05> From: "James Webster" To: "Ben WIlliams" Cc: References: <021c01bf4116$6fb21150$41586b83@mins05> <14101.991208@Home.Com> Subject: Re: Re[2]: Problems with NATD Date: Wed, 8 Dec 1999 11:21:33 -0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2919.4200 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2919.4200 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I didn't get the sources.

Check your response times to the 'Net using ping(1). Try pinging your ISP - you shouldn't lose any packets. I suspect your network config is wrong somehow. Send the list the output of `netstat -rn'.

There were some glitches going to glibc for people that wouldn't read the 10 lines of directiosn, but even that they've worked around. However, you deal entirely with prepackaged binaries. Debian's dependencies also work without a hitch. On the other hand, debian belongs to the High Church of Emacs, with the ever-popular hymn "GPL uber alles" . . .

If you don't find it, you have a much better chance of getting an answer on the debian or redhat mailing lists than this one. rick -- Prof. Richard E.

The machine worked O.K. before the move. The cable tests good. I have a link light. The box is on a hub with the Cisco router. I can't ping any of the hosts on the hub. Here are some of the specifics: IP: 206.103.113.217 Netmask: 255.255.255.224 Gateway: 206.103.113.222 My suspicion is that with the .224 netmask the network is subnetted so the gateway machine is on a different network even though it's on the hub. Networking is not my forte' as is most likely glaringly obvious from this email. If anyone can help or if I need to supply more information, please let me know.

One of the FreeBSD3.2 systems that I oversee just did something very peculiar... It spontaneously rebooted itself. When I checked the login records, there are two reboot entries listed, but no-one logged in save for myself. I checked the dmesg logs to see if there is anything that might be of help, and I found several entries exactly like this: xl0: no memory for rx list -- packet dropped! Am I correct in assuming that this has something to do with a possibly flakey ethernet card? Or is there another cause for this message? Any help would be very nice, as downtime on a mail server is not looked on fondly by paying customers.

That isn't so much an operating system issue as an issue of what shell you're using. Those strings are called "environment variables", and they are maintained by the "shell" (the process that reads the commands that you type and does something with them). There are a couple of major "families" of shells in common use nowadays: * Bourne shell (and other shells that use its syntax): sh, ksh, (bash?) * C shell (and descendants): csh, tcsh. (There are other shells around, but these are the more common ones.) If you use one of the former set, you type export USA_RESIDENT; USA_RESIDENT=YES (or, at least in ksh, you can enter both as a single command as "export USA_RESIDENT=YES"). If you use one of the latter, "setenv USA_RESIDENT YES" is the appropriate incantation. The information, in any case, ought to be available in the "man page" for the shell you are using at the time.

I've looked over xset's parameters and it doesn't seem to be there. I've looked at README.mouse in the X11R6 docs and it says that for a setting of "Auto" in your XF86Config (which I use), X will use the settings from the mouse driver. Aha! But, alas, I see no setting for double click speed on the psm driver?! A quick look through the code in psm.c reveals no way that I can see...? I broke my arm recently and it's hard to click twice in a row fast enough to register a double clike with X while I am in this damn cast. :( Appreciate any help, Scott P.S. Please CC me on the reply if possible... thx.

There are a few of these types of message in the archives. Good luck.

I've never had to specify the classpath to pick up other classes in the current directory. But if you need to specify the classpath on the command line, I think you may need to include "/usr/local/jdk1.1.8/lib/classes.zip".

Unfortunately Microsoft products generally don't conform to accepted standards and therefore are not compatible with FreeBSD. However, to enable users of such non-standard software to enjoy the full benefits of FreeBSD there are several emulators, notably bochs and wine, that allow non-standard software to run under FreeBSD. http://www.freebsd.org for full details of how to upgrade from Windows to FreeBSD.

As you hopefully know by now, Microsoft was never kind enough to share their specs or source code with anyone else, so it's very difficult for anyone to emulate their OS. SOmetimes they themselves have a hard time staying compatible. But if you are willing to expend a little extra effort, you will find that you can get the same amount of work done, if not more, on a BSD system, with less crashes and without being treating like a point-and-click idiot.

Guilmette" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Read this whole message. It's not about what you think its about. -------------------------------------- Here's my first-order problem: My printer doesn't work. I mean the printer *does* work. I know cuz it works just find on Linux. (The printer and the cable itself are just fine and dandy.) I have two systems here... one running Linux and another running FreeBSD. They are both dedicated to me and me alone. Because they are dedicated, I never bother with niceties like using the line printer spooler. My past experience tell me that its just too much of a hassle to THAT all get setup and configured properly, so I *never* bother with it. I just don't need it. I only print documents on rare occasions anyway. So I have gotten in the habit (on my old Linux system) of simply cat'ing whatever Postscript file I want to print to the parallel port device file (i.e. /dev/lp0 on Linux or /dev/lpt0 on FreeBSD). This *does* work just fine on Linux, in part because my Printer happens to be an HP Laserjet 5MP, which speaks Postscript. (If you want to print a Postscript file, experience shows that it really helps a lot if you have a Postscript- capable printer. :-) But cat'ing Postscript files directly to /dev/lpt0 on FreeBSD 3.3 has only worked for me intermittently, even at the best of times, and now it doesn't seem to be working at all, period. Earlier, a coupel fo weeks ago, I had convinced myself that I needed to do `lptcontrol -e' in order to make my printer work (on FreeBSD) but now, *even that* doesn't seem to do the trick, and now, when I cat files to /dev/lpt0, the printer just sits and stares at me. It doesn't even give any indication that it is even receiving any characters. No blinkin' lights, no pages printed, no nuttin'. Now granted, I've recently been diddling things inside that case of this system, e.g. swapping drives, putting in a new and bigger fan, etc., and *maybe* I somehow knocked loose a connector related to the parallel port or something, but that seems unlikely. It seems far more likely that I just don't know what the hell I'm doing when it comes to properly setting up and configuring a standard sort of PeeCee parallel port on FreeBSD. (I sure as hell don't understand exactly what the `lptcontrol -e' command actually does on, for example, the plain vanilla PeeCee hardware that I have.) OK, so the first thing I try to do is to educate myself, and I start reading man pages. That leads me to look closely at the config file that I used to generate the kernel I am using now. Specifically, I'm lookup at the entries relating to the things called `ppbus' and `ppc0' and `lpt0'. And I'm reading whatever little documentation of these things is present in the LINT file, which is to say not bloody much. So here is my first-order complaint: Please excuse my abundant ignorance, but just where the blazes are all of these extra little doo-dads that are tacked onto the end of the `device' lines documented anyway? I guess that I can figure out `irq NN' and `iomem 0xNNNNN' and `port 0xNNN' for myself, but what the heck is all of this other stuff? What does the `tty' modifer do? What exactly does `isa?' mean? What does the `disable' modifier do? (This stuff has always been rather opaque to me, but now, like it or not, I have to start understanding ALL of the specifics of kernel config file DEVICE lines.) Also, in the specific case of `device ppc0' what the heck does the `flags 0x40' modifier do?? The man page for `ppc' only describes meanings for bit flags 0x1 0x2 0x4 and 0x8. So where does the 0x40 come from and what the heck does it mean?? I scrounged around for awhile and tried to answer these questions for myself, but all I found was a 6-year-old paper titled ``Building 4.4BSD Kernels with Config' (which it would have been nice if the config(8) man page had given me the URL for, rather than making me search for it). Unfortunately, the kernel config file syntax that is described in that document *clearly* doesn't agree at all with the *current* config file syntax that is understood by the current FreeBSD kernel config(8) program. OK, so where is the *current* (FreeBSD) config file syntax documented? I know that I probably shouldn't but I just gotta say that this whole thing really does kinda tick me off. I mean I'm really not TRYING to be ignorant. I just am. And the available documentation (including the FreeBSD Handbook... which contains very little info about parallel ports, and even less *up-to-date* info about kernel configuration for parallel ports) isn't helping. I mean geeezzz! I only want to cat a bleedin' Postscript file to my bleedin' Postscript printer fer cryin' out loud! Why can't I just do that? Why does life have to be so complicated? Why can Linux, straight- out-of-the-box, do this but FreeBSD (with a mostly GENERIC kernel) can't? This *shouldn't* require a degree in rocket-science. P.S. In the example of the `device ppc0' line shown in the kernel LINT file, that line has the `tty' modifier on it, whereas in the GENERIC kernel config file... which I based *my* kernel config file on... that `tty' modifier is instead replaced with a `net' modifier. If this is what is causing all of my parallel port problems (because I have `net' rather than ``tty' on my ppc0 device line), then I gotta say that whoever picked the default of `net' for the GENERIC kernel maybe needs to think again about how parallel ports are most commonly used, i.e. NOT as networking devices. P.P.S. Let's suppose, just for the sake of argument, that there _is_ something wrong with the parallel port stuff inside of the case of this PeeCee... i.e. the one running FreeBSD. Other than the fact that I can't get stuff to print, how am I supposed to know that? Can the parallel port driver be configured to provide extra verbose kernel log debugging info to help me get to the bottom of this? Right now, it cer- tainly seems to be keeping a lot of potentially useful information to itself. For example, the ppc(4) man page says that the driver supports 4 different types of parallel port chips, but the boot-time messages it produces don't even say which type of parallel port chip it found to be present in my system! All it says at boot time is: ppc0 at 0x378 irq 7 flags 0x40 on isa ppc0: Generic chipset (EPP/NIBBLE) in COMPATIBLE mode lpt0: on ppbus 0 lpt0: Interrupt-driven port Not very chatty, is it? P.P.P.S. The FreeBSD handbook (at www.freebsd.org) says that *bi-directional* communication over the parallel port... which might be useful for debugging problems, *especially* with a Postscript printer... isn't supported ``yet''. Is that information still true? If so, when will bi-directional communica- tions over the parallel port be supported? I *really* would like to see any error messages that my printer might be trying to send back to the PeeCee. I mean who knows? Maybe the printer is sitting there desperately trying to say ``buy toner'' or something simple like that (but I don't think that it is).

I woulda thought it would be real simple but... All I want to do is modify the login screen presented by xdm. I have been able to a lot of the changes with no problem. The xdm configuration files are in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm. By modifying the 'xlogin' resources in 'Xresources', I have made most of the changes I want to the login screen, except for one. I want the login screen to be something like, ____________________________ | host.mydomain.com | | FreeBSD 3.4RC | | login: | | Password: | |__________________________| Except I have been unable to sneak newlines in the 'greeting' so I get one line with 'host.mydomain.com FreeBSD 3.4RC'. I've tried several things, but right now I have what I think _should_ work, xlogin*greeting: Welcome to CLIENTHOST\n\n\FreeBSD 3.4RC But alas, it puts it all on one line (no 'n's or anthing odd on the one line). Anyone get something similar to work? The second problem is the root screen. It's that ugly dithered grey that X defaults to. I'd just like to make that a simple solid color... almost _any_ color. I would think that should be really simple, but I have yet to track down where to slip in such a setting in the xdm startup. As a point of reference, I also have some IRIXs that do both of the above very nicely. But what works for them, does not work for FreeBSD. To do the multi-line greeting message, they have, xlogin*greeting: Welcome to %H\n\ IRIX %R (Where that newline after the '\' does appear as shown, and yes, I've tried that). To get a different root screen color, there is an option in the X command in Xservers with '-solidroot ', but no option or anything like it I could find for the XFree86 server I'm running (in this case, the 3D Labs server). Can anyone out there with some experience configuring xdm point me in the right direction. I'm sure this is documented _somewhere_ but I have not found leads from xdm(1), Xserver(1), or examining xdm's startup files. Thanks. -- Crist J.

'-quit' tells xv to fall on the sword after it writes to the root window (the background). The X server won't change the root window again until it's told to by a client. '-rmode 5' translates as "display the image centred on the root window against a black background." The HTMLised version of the XV 3.10a documentation is at http://is.rice.edu/~shel/xv-3.10a/ where you'll find more command-line options for xv.

The '-quit' switch causes xv to, well, quit once it finishes drawing the picture. The '-rmode' switch is the root mode. It specifies whether to fit picture to root screen, max aspect fix, center without changing size, tile, integer tile, integer tile center, etc. I believe 5 is center tiled. The xv docs are in /usr/X11R6/share/doc/xv. I never thought to put that in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xserver, but I have used that type of command line all of the time in user .xinitrc's or .xsession's. -- Crist J.

It prints to console and there is no getting out of the issue. I can unplug the drive and that will release the OS back to me. If I plug the device back in everything still works (sort of :) ) and I can perform a reboot. Of course I unplugged a mounted device which has some of my core fs's on it so the shutdown isn't clean on that device. I'm using the Quantum Atlas XP32150WD hdd. I read on the mailing list a couple of months ago that the driver for the controller is in need of rewriting or completing and to add a line in the cam_xpt.c source in the quirk struct {{ /* Reports queue full for temporary resource shortages */ { T_DIRECT, SIP_MEDIA_FIXED, quantum, "XP32150*", "*" }; /*quirks*/0, /*mintag*/24, /*maxtag*/32 }, etc etc etc and recompiled the kernel. Now the problem occurs less frequently but it still occurs. This is kicking my butt. Anyone got some other suggestions for a fix? Thanks! Jim Please reply to my email address too.

If so, you need to add that path to the default search path for ldconfig. You should have a line in /etc/rc.conf that looks something like: ldconfig_paths="/usr/lib/compat /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/local/lib" I suspect you're missing the "/usr/X11R6/lib" part. :-) Later, Sheldon.

For those who don't get the question, I think what it means is 1) How do you count how many subdirectories "deep" a filesystem goes, i.e., /mnt/blah/blah1/blah2/blah3/blah4/blah5, for the 'blah' filesystem, there is a depth of 5., and 2) how do you count all of the files in a filesystem and report which directory has the most files in it?

It's really not that much effort. :-) Why on earth would you believe that `lpr' will work when simply cat'ing a file to /dev/lpt0 doesn't even work?? The line printer spooler is a whole complex and convoluted subsystem. But no matter how complex and sophisticated it gets, I can pretty well assure you that even it won't work if you can't even get characters down the wire and to the printer.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Ok, it's a strange question. Here is my problem. I've got a dialup connection, but no modem in the fbsd box. I've a modem in the win box and rsn I'll have a pppoe connection that I want to use the fbsd box with. I see that there is support for pppoe via Netgraph in the kernel, however to use this, I need to update my kernel and associated files. I'd really rather not try to learn modem setup and ppp just to update, because I'm guessing I'd need to get something to enable a modem connection [that I probably don't have] on the fbsd box [as I never planned on using fbsd over a modem]. Now the question. Using windows, is there a way to get *all* the cvsup files on the win box? Assume I can ftp over my local private lan to - from the fbsd box to move the file[s] to the fbsd box to do the actual update. Assume I don't know of any way to use the windows box to act as a gateway for the fbsd box. I installed fbsd 3.1 from an iso image I burned with the win box, and if that might be the best way, I'm happy to try that, as well. Ideas? -- Allen Cleveland allenc@mindsieve.com There is no try.

What really pisses me off in FreeBSD (well, this is actually the one of the very few things that badly implemented in FBSD, I guess ;-) is the terminals issue. I've posted a message some time ago about crappy Midnight Commander behaviour unser FreeBSD (TERM = cons25) -- Ctrl-O didn't work, Shifted functional keys, and others neither did. Apparently, this is not too interesting for many people (however, I can't understand one who switched from Linux to FreeBSD, and neglets sucky terminal support in FBSD), since I didn't get a decent answer. But people, lets face it: we take Red Hat Linux rigth out the box, and everything works perfectly: colored ls, midnight with all the features working, and even when I telnet to another linux box, with TERM=vt100, I get all characters drawn correctly (I'm from Russia, so there are often some problems with different encodings and fonts, but here -- no), russian chars + frame chars (in mc), color.... In vt100, in telnet! Now let's take a look at FreeBSD. First of all, no --color option of ls. Strange.... Ok, moving on. Midnight lacks some functionality (actually, I've contacted MC main author, and he told me that MC designed for linux, and there are some code that assumes you're running linux). Still, I'm not satisfied. Would you be? I don't think so. Not quite. Ok, I try telnetting to my FreeBSD box. What?!?! Black and white midnight? While in Linux everything works? I don't understand it. Terminals issue is probably the one that needs to be impreved in FreeBSD. And, why to have cons25, cons30, cons43, cons50 ?!?!?! Hope my letter will be considered.

Tonight a message arrived from an old friend from whom I had not heard in four years. Naturally, this was the night I was fooling with kmail, trying to find a decent mail reader. Unfortunately, kmail decided that just now was the time to crash and dump everything I had into the bit bucket. I don't believe there is any way to recover the message, but I have to ask to be sure.

FreeBSD installed fine (as usual), and I was pleasantly surprised to find an X-Desktop menu in the sysinstall program. I duly selected Gnome, and everything installed and seemed fine. My problem: When I start X, Gnome and Enlightenment do appear to start, but it's in a right crappy old state. I have funny enlightenment pager windows and icons, the gnome file manager fails to start (I can start it manually), I have no workspace buttons on the panel etc. Basically, it's just not configured. In comparison, Redhat 6 gives a clean, usable Gnome desktop straight out of the box. Why doesn't FreeBSD do this? For reference my .xinitrc just contains: gnome-session I start X by doing 'startx -- -bpp 16' and I set my WINDOW_MANAGER env variable to 'enlightenment'. Any help appreciated - please reply to me directly, because I am not subscribed to the list.

C-o, When the program is being run in the Linux or SCO console or under an xterm, it will show you the output of the previous command. When ran on the Linux console, the Midnight Commander uses an external program (cons.saver) to handle saving and restoring of information on the screen. When the subshell support is compiled in, you can type C-o at any time and you will be taken back to the Midnight Commander main screen, to return to your application just type C-o. If you have an application suspended by using this trick, you won't be able to execute other programs from the Midnight Commander until you terminate the suspended application. Presumably, this means that if you configured mc with the --with-subshell option, you'd get the behaviour you're looking for. You ought to be ashamed of yourself, blaming FreeBSD for your lack of research. I don't even _use_ midnight commander. :-) > Now let's take a look at FreeBSD. First of all, no --color option of > ls. Strange.... It's not strange, it's the way Berkeley ls works. If you want colour, install colorls or gnuls, both available in the ports tree and as packages. > Terminals issue is probably the one that needs to be impreved in > FreeBSD. Perhaps, but the fact that FreeBSD doesn't behave the way someone who's used to Linux expects it to behave is not condemning in and of itself. How about you raise some specific issues with the terminal emulation with a view to improving FreeBSD, instead of taking pot shots? :-) Ciao, Sheldon.

It's bad practice to try to do this for system-wide X preferences. Rather do it in your own .xinitrc or .xsession as appropriate. For example, you might put this in your .xinitrc: TERM=xterm-color; export TERM Obviously, you'd then want to take care to not mess with the value of TERM in your .profile. Ciao, Sheldon.

BTW, 'replicate' is just a script run by cron to copy various configuration files between servers, in this case the aliases file gets sent to our old mail server which is currently defined as mx1 in our dns.

Hmm.. well I wrote the FAQ and maintain that page you went to, can you send me your /boot/loader.conf file? If its short ( < 10 lines, which it should be) just stick it in the message. Also, what did you name the bitmap file and what directory did you stick it in? Finally, are you using the "VM86" or VESA kernel options, and do you get any errors in your dmesg regarding splash screens?

It seems more efficient to me to put the modem on FBSD, set it up as a gateway and IP redirector, either with straight PPP or with NATD, and ethernet the Windows box to it. That way, the FBSD box gets to do one of the things it is best at, namely networking, and it would simplify the Windowbox's administration, too. This wouldn't be learning modem setup and ppp "just" to update--it would be a permanent improvement.

If that's what you're using, I have yet to find a page that couldn't be formatted with one of ``nroff -mdoc'' and ``nroff -man''. The decision can be automated with some shell scripting (although this is sluggish): page=/path/to/foo.1 if grep -Lq '^\.Nm' ${page}; then nroff -mdoc ${page} else nroff -man ${page} fi That should get you going, depending on what you're actually trying to do. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.

When you find yourself faced with a decision, ask yourself a question... if I ran a multi-user system hosting users with lots of different preferences, what would I do? This assumes that you're striving to learn, as opposed to striving for rapid results. So the first question you need to ask yourself is: Is it possible to offer adzapper on a per-user basis? If not, but you're the only user on the box, then fine, you'll have to drop purism. Or maybe you'd enforce this on all your users, in which case you're still being a purist, just a bastard purist. :-) So the next question is: What'll happen if adzapper's already running from a previous PPP connection and ppp.linkup launches another instance? Knowing nothing at all about adzapper, I can't answer that for you. But I'm guessing that it's more appropriate to run it out of /usr/local/etc/rc.d/adzapper.sh, provided it'll get up and running without a live connection. Now go play around a bit, eh? :-) Ciao, Sheldon.

Whatever you were on, you're still on it -- it was Zhihui Zhang who asked the question. I wouldn't worry about it, though.

I assume you want unique IP's for each of your servers so use the VirtualHost directive. Each VirtualHost should have a unique IP. Make sure you have a Listen directive for each of your IP's so Apache will know to connect to those IP's. You'll need something like: Listen xxx.xxx.76.131:80 for each VirtualHost.

However, it does not appear that cvs is bringing over new ports or updating existing ports. For instance, if I delete the zope port from www, and then run "cvs co ports", the zope directory is not recreated. Am I missing something?

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Folks, I'm wondering if you can give me some advice on this issue, or if you can give me guidance on where I should take this question (freebsd-security?). Anyway, the short of it is that we're getting fed up paying high hardware and astronomical software costs for our Firewall-1 setup, and we're concerned that it may not be able to continue to scale with us as we grow anyway. In terms of the features, we're really not making that much use of everything it can do, instead we're mostly using it for packet filtering. Given all this, we're interested in the possibility of replacing it with either a Linux or FreeBSD-based solution. My personal preference is FreeBSD, but we're probably going to need to at least try a comparable Linux setup (if any such thing exists). What I'd like is to see what folks would recommend for use as a primarily packet filtering firewall solution under FreeBSD that can handle upwards of 150Mbps today (w/ Gigabit Ethernet NICs), and scale to even higher levels in the future. Ideally this would be something that could do load-balancing and high-availability as well, so that one system could take over the whole load if the other should die.

I am trying to decide on a good RAID implementation for this system, and my choices, due to budget & available hardware, are limited. I have available to me a Mylex Acceleraid 250 Ultra2 SCSI to PCI RAID card, which I could use for hardware-driven RAID. Alternatively, I could use an Adaptec AHA-2940U2W and vinum for RAID. I can't use both cards for the one machine (budget), so my choice is one or the other. Searching through the mailing list archives, I have found only a few mentions of the Acceleraid 250, including a backported driver by Mike Smith. http://www.freebsd.org/~msmith/RAID/mylex/ Has anyone used this driver for production work? If so, is it reliable? Also, is it possible to boot FreeBSD from a disk attached to this controller? In regards to the AHA-2940U2W, I found numerous references to it, including a mention that one of them is used at wcarchive.cdrom.com. However, there were a series of messages back in March which mentioned that the card would hang during the boot sequence, during "waiting for SCSI devices to settle" See: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?db=mid&id=Pine.BSI.3.96.990305112731.15359P-100000@ns2.michweb.net Does anyone know if this problem has been resolved? From what I have read, given that the Adaptec cards seem to be in much wider use (and thus probably better supported), and that vinum appears to give very impressive performance gains, even compared to hardware RAID, I have been leaning towards the Adaptec & vinum solution. Does anyone have any recommendations, or experiences to share? Any replies will be much appreciated, ..agl..

I assume you want to go to stable? Go to ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/CTM/src-3 (or your favorite mirror) and get the most recent src3-.nnnxEmpty.gz file, and all of the patches after it. (Currently, that is src-3.0300xEmpty.gz ) Put all of them in a directory on your FreeBSD box, then cd /usr/src; ctm -v -v /path/to/the/delta/directory/src*gz The set of CTM deltas you need is likely to be about 60 or 70MB. See http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/synching.html#CTM for more information on CTM.

Doing so will make a script file called adzapperd, which will then run in the background automatically. If you don't figure it out before tomorrow, let me know and I'll mail you the contents of the adzapperd script (I'm not at home and I can't access my home computer from here) There's nothing special about that rc.d directory -- it's just a predefined location (defined in /etc/defaults/rc.conf) as a place to look for additional startup scripts. - Julian -- Julian C.

I am sending this message to inform whoever designs web sites that I need one designed immediately. I have a loan company for less-than-adequate individuals and my business has grown to over 70 automobile companiess. I need a web site created that will tell what my company is and allow visitors to the site the ability submit (by email) an application for credit approval. I also will need graphics upgraded and I will need monthly upgrades and changes. The layout is similar to a site already on the internet http://www.repojoe.com . I want my web site to be twice as attractive as that site. PRICE IS NO OBJECT!!! Please take a look at the fore-mentioned website and e-mail me back an estimate fast as you can.

That would probably work but where I am trying to do this the doc macros are not available to nroff and nroff is too inflexible to accept 'odd' paths.

However, the default Receive and Send buffer is only 16,384 bytes and is the default Maximum Segment Size really only 512 bytes?

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Is there such a thing ? What I'm after is something equivalent to vold on Solaris. Functionally Id like it to: - Automatically mount CD-ROMS when I insert them (without any other user action required). - Optionally automatically NFS export the CD-ROM when inserted. The Solaris vold doesn't just apply to CD-ROMS, its for all types of removable media so it would be good to have a FreeBSD one that handled CDs, floppy disks, PCMCIA disks, Zip/Jazz drives etc Can AMD do this kind of thing ? Currently to make life easier when using CDs I do the following: (I'm saying this because others may find it useful) - In my /etc/fstab: "/dev/acd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0" - /cdrom always exported in /etc/exports: "/cdrom -maproot=root,ro" - I have two .cshrc aliases: mcd 'sudo mount /cdrom' ucd 'sudo umount /cdrom' - Sudo configuration as follows so I dont need a password for the above aliases: User_Alias ME = thyerm Cmnd_Alias CDOPS = /sbin/mount /cdrom, /sbin/umount /cdrom ME ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: CDOPS Of course this requires me to type "mcd" when I insert a CD-ROM so its not quite as easy as Solaris vold. -- Matthew Thyer Phone: +61 8 8259 7249 Corporate Information Systems Fax: +61 8 8259 5537 Defence Science and Technology Organisation, Salisbury PO Box 1500 Salisbury South Australia 5108 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 9 16:51:28 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from inbox.org (inbox.org [216.22.145.8]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5F85515703 for ; Thu, 9 Dec 1999 16:51:25 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bsd@a.servers.aozilla.com) Received: from localhost (bsd@localhost) by inbox.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id TAA16820; Thu, 9 Dec 1999 19:51:25 -0500 (EST) Date: Thu, 9 Dec 1999 19:51:25 -0500 (EST) From: "Mr. K."

The system uses IP's 129.103.2.1 - 129.103.2.254 (MFS1 = 129.103.2.1, MFS2 = 129.103.2.2, LFS3 = 129.103.2.3, LFS10 = 129.103.2.10, POS1 = 129.103.2.11, POS254 = 129.103.2.254) with MFS1 being the Primary file server, MFS2 being the Backup file server, LFS3 - 10 being workstations (difference between workstations and servers in this system is, the workstations cannot do parameter maintenance). POS1-254 are registers 1 - 254 The database system is something i've never seen anywhere outside this system, it is called "Quick-Dex" or "QDex" for short. Basically it consists of roughly 120 files, each performing its own little function, for example, "transact.qdx" is the transaction file, storing all sales, all signon/sign offs, order suspends/retrieves, etc. you have 3 or 4 PLU (UPC) files, that store of course, PLU information, and indexes. (The index files can rebuild all of its "children" files on a reboot & reload of the database into memory, if the file dosent match the index, it rebuilds them). Files that handle cashier accountability, POS accountability, departmental sales, etc. It's quite extensive. I don't see anyone writing something from scratch at this point in the ISS 45's lifespan, as it will soon become outdated in its capabilities. Which is why i was wondering about a system being written previously to handle this. If you would like file layouts, that is not a problem. Sorry to all on the list if they feel this is irrelevant.

There are several reasons why numerous Internet U.S./Euro firms are looking into entering Japan: 1. The Japanese market is the 2nd largest market but not yet highly competitive 2. The online population will boom in Y2K 3. NASDAQ is opening in Japan soon so there is an IPO rush to be expected to happen 4. Many other U.S./Euro firms hesitate to approach a non-English market 5. In the U.S. giant U.S. firms usually take over when a small firm starts its new successful business model I am most likely the only one who has the experience of establishing a NASDAQ listed U.S. firm successfully in Japan as an individual.

Well, I have used the MegaRAID card on current and the Mylex 960PD and PL card on STABLE. The AMI card is nicer in that all the logic is built into the BIOS, so you dont have to boot to DOS to manage the array. Unfortunately, the AMI drivers dont work on stable for me, so I cant say how well it functions. I have been using the Mylex card on an internal SQUID box with success, but the performance numbers are not that impressive, but I didnt get a chance to really test things. But the main thing for RAID for us, is reliability. Another option you _might_ consider are some of the external IDE RAID boxes... They take cheap big IDE drives and present them on a SCSI interface. The idea sounds appealing, but I have no idea what they are like in the real world. I have a friend who uses one with LINUX, and he says they are really great and work as advertised. >In regards to the AHA-2940U2W, I found numerous references to it, >Does anyone know if this problem has been resolved? A lot of people use them and some very heavy environments, so I would say yes. We use one with a couple of 10,000 RPM IBM drives on a PII450 SMP box that is a fairly heavily hit web server without issue. ---Mike Mike Tancsa (mdtancsa@sentex.net) Sentex Communications Corp, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada "Given enough time, 100 monkeys on 100 routers could setup a national IP network."

I have started to work with the Novatel MSCI spec in the hopes of making such a thing for Unix users of Sage, Merlin and other Novatel wireless CDPD products. Already I have a simple app that does a single poll for status. You can take a look at the source code at http://www.freebsd.org/~nsayer/ (look down for the Merlin section). It is conceivable that someone could take this basic code and make a Windowmaker or KDE dockable app with a signal strength and BLER meter in it, for example. My knowledge of X programming is essentially nil. My own goal is to see if I can make a top-like curses app out of the thing eventually.

It's not just an OS issue, but a backend database, accounting and business model issue as well. Best thing would be to release the specs and gather people for an open source Client/Server POS/accounting system. Not impossible, but would take coordination.

Perhaps proftpd used to run sgid and now it doesn't? You should probably check its release notes. But if the software doesn't run suid or sgid, then the behaviour you're seeing now is "normal UNIX behaviour", whatever the hell that is. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.

There are two points of confusion here. The first is the issue of severity, which depends very much on how the recpient of any given signal chooses to deal with it (SIGKILL being the only real exception). The second is what you mean by "executing the kill command ... on a selected file". I'll interpret that as "send a signal to any process with the specified name, using the kill command". So choose your order of severity and do something like this: #!/bin/sh progname="myprog" siglist="1 15 2 6 9" for i in ${siglist}; do if killall -$i ${progname}; then echo signal $i delivered to ${progname} else exit 1 fi sleep 1 done This is very silly stuff, though. There are all sorts of problems involved here. It'd be much better if you explained what the problem was so that we could offer you a specific solution. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.

If it's 3.3-RELEASE, you shouldn't need to specify the boot slice this way at all.

I did try starting enlightenment first, but It made no difference. I still get all the (non functional) enlightenment desktop icons, and funny pager windows which keep coming back after I close them (grrr!), and and empty gnome panel. I also seem to get many more core dumps from the various gnome apps. I know it's far from stable on any platform, but I had much less crashing on Redhat, and it just worked without any fiddling. It seems from the freebsd-questions archive that other people are experiencing this too. I know FreeBSD improves with every release (I've used it since 2.2.2), but I really think the developers should concentrate more on making it just work 'out of the box'. Not that I'm against fiddling - I enjoy building kernels, and setting up networking etc., but configuring a basic desktop is not something I want to waste my time on. I tend to agree with you about not really liking either KDE or Gnome. Both KDE and Gnome try to copy MS Windows too much, along with all it's bad GUI design features (Start menu for example). It strikes me that the developers of both are more concerned about making them 'look' great, rather than 'function' great.

What advantages, > if any, does BSD have over Solaris? Thing is, there are two flavours of Solaris. On for SPARC and one for 80x86. Now, my experience of Solaris on a SPARC platform is best described as simply the best experience I've had with a computer. However, this was a dual UltraSPARC system with half a gig of memory so I suspect I fell in love with the hardware and not the operating system. Solaris x86 is different. I got the impression SUN made it to show people how cool Solaris was. And make a market for Solaris SPARC and SUN computers. In some respects it is better than FreeBSD - it installs fairly easily (except the bit where you carve up the HDD) and the out of the box config means the user never sees a text login - it's CDE all the way. Which is nice. However, Solaris has one or two annoyances. For a start you don't get a C compiler - you have to buy it or find and install GCC. You don't get perl either. Or gzip. And tar doesn't work properly (to un-tar a MySQL distribution I had to install Linux on a spare partition, un-tar the file in Linux, then mount the Linux partition from Solaris and copy the files accross). Oh yes, and the Solaris Boot manager is the most irritating thing ever. And another thing, Solaris x86 is slow. I've had it running on a PII@400 with 128MB RAM. My FreeBSD machine (a P166 with 64MB) ran faster. To sum up... Solaris on SPARC is as good as FreeBSD on Intel. On an Intel Solaris comes second. So if you can afford it get a decent Sun SPARC system. Failing that use FreeBSD.

Yes, I know it's ancient. We've been planning on replacing it with a Sun Ultra-2 box (sorry) for quite some time, but for various reasons it hasn't happened yet. We're assessing the Y2K vulnerability of this box in its current state. It does nothing other than run stock daemons (but not sendmail) and "sshd" and the INN 1.4p4 "innd" and the innxmits needed to service news feeds. My reading of http://www.freebsd.org/y2kbug.html was basically that unless I upgrade the machine to FreeBSD 3.1, I might have problems ... that really isn't practical given lack of time and our current scenario (the replacements are being configured as we speak, but likely won't be ready in time for the end of the year). So I'm just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on likely outcomes if this bare-bones setup continues into 2000 for a short time. (Like will out incoming news feeds die? hehe) Any input appreciated ... thanks in advance.

I really disagree with you, if you can afford sparc hardware then you ought to buy 4 to 6 PCs with the money, you get both fault tolerance and cheap/easy fast part replacement along with probably at least twice the power of your single sparc system. The only time it's worth buying sparc is when you have the money to get several of them or you _really_ need big iron hardware, otherwise it's putting all your eggs in one basket. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 10 4:18:40 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from tuminfo2.informatik.tu-muenchen.de (tuminfo2.informatik.tu-muenchen.de [131.159.0.81]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1EFAB15376 for ; Fri, 10 Dec 1999 04:18:38 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from hafner@informatik.tu-muenchen.de) Received: from hprbg5.informatik.tu-muenchen.de ([131.159.0.200] EHLO hprbg5.informatik.tu-muenchen.de ident: root [port 2567]) by tuminfo2.informatik.tu-muenchen.de with ESMTP id <111615-13186>; Fri, 10 Dec 1999 13:18:30 +0000 Received: from hafner@localhost by hprbg5.informatik.tu-muenchen.de id <24230-809>; Fri, 10 Dec 1999 13:18:02 +0100 To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: FreeBSD vs Solaris References: From: Walter Hafner Date: 10 Dec 1999 13:18:01 +0100 In-Reply-To: "Peter McGarvey"'s message of "Fri, 10 Dec 1999 10:48:38 -0000" Message-ID: Lines: 20 X-Mailer: Gnus v5.5/XEmacs 20.3 - "Vatican City" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG "Peter McGarvey" writes: > To sum up... > > Solaris on SPARC is as good as FreeBSD on Intel.

Download the kern.flp and mfs.flp floppy images and the image writer if necessary (see the FreeBSD web page for the locations of these files). Then just create two floppies, use them to boot as per the installation instructions on the web page and choose one of the smaller distributions (e.g. Developer or User without X). Ciao, Sheldon.

CDE is nice...especially when you have a Novell/Windows guy in the other office who wants a "similar working environment" while still using Unix (Network Management station)...not as feature rich, IMHO, as KDE, but I don't have the inclination or desire to make Solaris look *that* good... > I really disagree with you, if you can afford sparc hardware then > you ought to buy 4 to 6 PCs with the money, you get both fault > tolerance and cheap/easy fast part replacement along with probably > at least twice the power of your single sparc system. Depends on your application...RC5 *flies* on Intel vs Sparc, Setiathome is slower on Intel then Sparc...same hardware used in each scenario...same operating system... I'm slowly moving life here over to Intel from Sparc, due to cost (and, since most of our operations here are int based, speed), but if I could get equivalent Sparc over Intel, for close to same price, I'd be a fool to think that Intel was better. Our sparcs, other then the occasional hard drive failure, I've *never* had a problem with them...from delivery to full production. The Intel's, on the other hand, tend to be "fun" on initial setup, with stuff like IRQs and all that... > The only time it's worth buying sparc is when you have the money > to get several of them or you _really_ need big iron hardware, > otherwise it's putting all your eggs in one basket. My experience is that that "one basket" is made of suitably thick lead that it isn't that big of a risk. All our servers are (or are moving towards), full 0+1 mirroring, and I've yet to see either memory or CPU fail...or power supply. and I've *never* had problems with the SCSI bus. You want something fairly maintenance free, go Sparc...you do get what you pay for. Now if only FreeBSD ran on it, I could have good hardware *and* operating system in one box :) Marc G.

I support a single SPARC system. For what we paid for it I could have built about 20 top of the range PCs. The only time I'd ever consider buying another SAPRC is if some third party forced the decision on me (which is why we have the SPARC mentioned above). Personally, I would buy a SPARC for personal use. But only if I have silly amounts of money that I didn't know what to do with, left over after buying that Aston Martin DB7 I want so much. In other words - in my dreams.

It is in "nfs_vnops.c" where it says "nfs_fsync: not dirty". I am not familiar with the NFS code enough to speculate how it actually gets to that point (what conditions might cause it to be called): if ((bp->b_flags & B_DELWRI) == 0) panic("nfs_fsync: not dirty"); Any advice on how to resolve this issue is very welcome. I am using NFSV2 because NFSV3 at the time we set this up was not stable enough. Has NFSv3 improved enough yet? Thanks.

We have some of our attendance centers running old hardware/ software (Novell, Tokenring, etc). We have the DSL at these centers and need a router (between ethernet and tokenring). Will FreeBSD 3.2 do the job well ? It will be loaded on a Pentium 90 with 32MB Ram, tokenring & ethernet adapters. any ideas or input would be greatly appreciated.

As much as i love KDE and Gnome (at least the way they look and have so many applications) i have for the moment scrapped them all for WindowMaker. I'm not going to start a flame war on WM's but frankly windowmaker has all i need, and stability is one of those needs. I put the apps i need on the menus, and i leave a few icons around for other apps. And i use an xterm for the rest. It works great, has themes, but most of all, loads quickly and is very reliable. I'm no expert by any means.. maybe i'm even pushing it to say i am a low-intermediate... but i think that windowmaker (and also blackbox and other small ones) is very stable and does what i need it to do. Also, the desktop environments may be becoming dangerously bloated. Just a though on why RH gnome works so well (correct me if i'm wrong): RH pushed Gnome to be ready by 6.0. SO they had a direct hand in its development, and could therefore make it perform far more predictably and in an integrated manner with their OS. Us BSD folks just use the port, which is, AFAIK, based on original sources. If the port were patched as carefully for BSD as it apparently is for RedHat, maybe we could have the same smooth operation. But, back to my original comment, is that what we really want?

Hmm. That does rather point to a problem with the Tekram adapter. If I understand you correctly, you don't intend to try that combination again, which makes it difficult for us to find the problem.

The arp cache won't show it until after you've opened an IP connection to it, so that method is a catch-22. If the mac address isn't printed on the device or in the documentation that came with it, one way to get it is to fire it up with bootp and then look in your bootpd or dhcpd log. If you're running ISC dhcpd the log will have entries like this: Dec 6 08:31:35 bach dhcpd: BOOTREQUEST from 08:00:09:48:6c:84 via fxp0 Dec 6 08:31:35 bach dhcpd: No applicable record for BOOTP host 08:00:09:48:6c:84 via fxp0 bootpd logs something similar and hopefully so do other servers. -Mitch To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 10 8:25:45 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from trinity.lee.net (trinity.lee.net [208.229.121.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B6D8C15154 for ; Fri, 10 Dec 1999 08:25:25 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from awells@journalstar.com) Received: from journalstar.com (leepcB-195.sub-b.lee.net [208.205.125.195]) by trinity.lee.net (8.9.1/8.9.0) with ESMTP id KAA23951 for ; Fri, 10 Dec 1999 10:25:24 -0600 Message-ID: <38512973.CE4D31D7@journalstar.com> Date: Fri, 10 Dec 1999 10:25:23 -0600 From: Tony Wells X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.61 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: A networking problem References: <199912100521.AAA61997@cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I can't ping the router or any of the other machines on the subnet.

I have a Compaq 486-DX2 with 8 meg of memory. I have two drives, a 200 meg and a 400 meg. I do not have a CDROM attached, but I do have a modem. The machine is loaded with Windows 3.1, but I will re-install DOD 6.22 before trying to install FreeBSD. I don't believe my A drive can handle 1.44meg disks. I do have another machine with a CDROM running Windows 98 and I have a copy of Laplink. Another option might be to partition my Windows 98 machine and load FreeBSD in the new partition. To do this I would have to purchase a copy of Partition Magic or System Commander, so I can partition the drive without losing the Windows partition. I welcome to all suggestions.

An even better point is that the size of the directory is also a function of the length of the filenames it holds.

No, it isn't. Please quote me from the _standard_ 3.3 versions of those man pages and quote me the exact parts that document the following config file options for ppc: tty net disable I see now that the man page for ppc(4) _does_ document the meaning of `flags 0x40', but only in a rather perverse way (talking about ``flags bit 6'' rather than just documenting the meaning of 0x40, as is done in the earlier part of this same man page). But the meanings of the `tty', `net', and `disable' options still appear to be totally undsocumented. >> So here is my first-order complaint: Please excuse my abundant ignorance, >> but just where the blazes are all of these extra little doo-dads that are >> tacked onto the end of the `device' lines documented anyway?

Different drivers have >different parameters and options. But the config file itself has an overall syntax. There are certain words and phrases that can be placed on a `device' line for example. Trying to put random crap on a device line, like: device xyz0 foobar! will probably get you into trouble. Look at the paper I mentioned, i.e. `Building 4.4BSD Kernels with Config'. That has a whole detailed BNF syntax fully laid out that describes what could (and what could not) be placed into a config file under plain old 4.4BSD. The syntax for FreeBSD kernel config files should likewise be documented somewhere. >> I mean geeezzz!

And to your own admission, >you haven't eliminated the possability that it is a hardware related >problem. Right. I haven't. But before I start to go rampaging through the insides of this machine's mini-tower case, I really would like to first eliminate the possibility that I've just got the parallel port driver(s) misconfigured in my kernel. And I'd also like to eliminate the possibility that I'm just not running the parallel port in the proper `mode' (a la lptcontrol). One should always eliminate sofwtare configuration glitches before one even begins to contemplate blaming the hardware. But which `device ppc0' options are really the ``correct'' ones in my case? Should this thing be set to `net' or to `tty'? And what do those modifiers DO anyway? And which `lptcontrol' setting should I be using? I have no idea, and nothing in the man pages gives me any useful guidance whatsoever. >> This *shouldn't* require a degree in rocket-science. >> > It's doesn't, it requires a doctorate in computer science. (more >sarcasm) Gee, and here I was hoping that a Master's would be adequate. :-( >It really should be as simple as you ask, at least it has been in >my experience. I guess I'm just lucky. > Standard parallel ports are pretty dumb... Apparently not. If they're so dumb, then why all of the kernel and run-time options?? >... and aren't very verbose to begin with. Now its my turn to say it: See the man page. The man page for ppbus has a whole section on IEEE-1284. And as it happens, I _know_ that I have an IEEE-1284 cable running from the computer in questions to the printer in question, so I gotta figure that the printer itself _can_ do some of the (sophisticated?) talking back that is described in the ppbus man page. (And given my inability to get the printer to print, I happen to think that it would be Really Swell if I could get a chance to see anything that the printer may be trying to send back to the computer in this case.) >> P.P.P.S. The FreeBSD handbook (at www.freebsd.org) says that >> *bi-directional* >> communication over the parallel port... which might be useful for >> debugging >> problems, *especially* with a Postscript printer... isn't supported >> ``yet''. >> Is that information still true?

I would assume >that the man page is giving the current state of affairs. The problem is that ``the man page'' (specifically the ppbus man page) is *not* at all specific in answering the question ``Can I get/read status back from the parallel port device /dev/lpt0?'' The ppbus man page talks at length about IEEE-1284 *in general terms*, i.e. describing what the IEEE-1284 standard demands, and then it describes the layered approach to parallel ports used in FreeBSD, i.e. using ppbus and ppc, and lpt devices, and then it just ends saying: This achitecture should support IEEE1284-1994 modes. Swell. It should, but does it? If not, then when will it? >> I *really* would like to see any error messages that my printer might be >> trying to send back to the PeeCee. >> >> I mean who knows?

I have a machine with IP 10.0.0.3 and a modem. I configured this one as a ppp dialin server. Dialup works. The machine gets the address 10.0.0.200 and can communicate with 10.0.0.3. But it cannot see the rest of my LAN or the rest of the internet. I configured 10.0.0.3 as a gateway and am using user-ppp. I also tried to give the calling computer the address 20.0.0.x to place it on another subnet, but that didn't work either.

This list does not contact the owners of FreeBSD, nor does it constitute an official 'support' site. It is a list of BSD _users_ who are probably at work today, at least in the US, and they haven't even seen your message. When they read it, then someone who understands and can help will _volunteer_ the time to respond and help you. Maybe your questions didn't include enough other info. Maybe no one else has had a similar problem. Maybe the person who can help you hasn't checked their email this today. You not getting the answers you want when you want them is hardly a reason for saying FreeBSD doesn't compete. Try getting tech support from M$ for free. See how you fare then.

I seem to remember you showing your kernel config but I must have deleted that message, and I don't remember if this point was mentioned..... In your kernel configuration file, along with options "VM86", options "VESA" and device vga0 at isa? port ? conflicts, you also have to have an entry that says pseudo-device splash.

If you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your message: - You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate. - You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read. - You asked more than one unrelated question in one message. - You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone. - You sent out the same message more than once. - You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions. If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you will get more than one copy of this message from different people. Read on, and your next message will be more successful. This document is also available on the web at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html. ===================================================================== Contents: I: Introduction II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers? IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V: How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction =============== This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the "newcomers"), and also those who answer the questions (the "hackers"). Note that the term "hacker" has nothing to do with breaking into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is "cracker", but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions ============================================== When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG. In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list! If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list, you can send mail to "Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG" with the following command in the body of your email message: unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as grog@lemis.de. Since then, I have changed it to grog@lemis.com. If I were to try to remove grog@lemis.com from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2. You're subscribed to a mailing list which is subscribed to FreeBSD-questions. If that's the case, you'll have to figure out which one it is and get your name taken off that one. If you're not sure which one it might be, check the headers of the messages you receive from freebsd-questions: maybe there's a clue there. If you've done all this, and you still can't figure out what's going on, send a message to Postmaster@FreeBSD.org, and he will sort things out for you. Don't send a message to FreeBSD-questions: they can't help you. III: Should I ask -questions, -newbies or -hackers? =================================================== Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD, FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers. In addition, the FreeBSD-newbies list caters specifically for people who are new to FreeBSD and may be having trouble getting used to the environment. In some cases, it's not really clear which group you should ask. The following criteria should help for 99% of all questions, however: If the question is of a general nature, first check whether this isn't a Frequently Asked Question (FAQ). There's a list of these questions at http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ.html, and also on your own system (once you've installed it) at /usr/share/doc/FAQ/FAQ.html. Check there, and if you don't find an answer, ask FreeBSD-questions. Examples might be questions about installing FreeBSD or the use of a particular UNIX utility. If you think the question relates to a bug, but you're not sure, or you don't know how to look for it, send the message to FreeBSD-questions. If the question relates to a bug, and you're almost sure that it's a bug (for example, you can pinpoint the place in the code where it happens, and you maybe have a fix), then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. You should also enter a problem report with the send-pr utility. If the question relates to enhancements to FreeBSD, and you can make suggestions about how to implement them, then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. If the question is of particularly technical nature, such as implementation details or suggestions for improvements, then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. If you're new to FreeBSD, and the message is about your own relationship to FreeBSD, send the message to FreeBSD-newbies. There are also a number of other specialized mailing lists, for example FreeBSD-isp, which caters to the interests of ISPs (Internet Service Providers) who run FreeBSD. If you happen to be an ISP, this doesn't mean you should automatically send your questions to FreeBSD-isp. The criteria above still apply, and it's in your interest to stick to them, since you're more likely to get good results that way. IV: How to submit a question ============================= When submitting a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider the following points: 1. Remember that nobody gets paid for answering a FreeBSD question. They do it of their own free will. You can influence this free will positively by submitting a well-formulated question supplying as much relevant information as possible. You can influence this free will negatively by submitting an incomplete, illegible, or rude question. It's perfectly possible to send a message to FreeBSD-questions and not get an answer even if you follow these rules. It's much more possible to not get an answer if you don't. In the rest of this document, we'll look at how to get the most out of your question to FreeBSD-questions. 2. Not everybody who answers FreeBSD questions reads every message: they look at the subject line and decide whether it interests them. Clearly, it's in your interest to specify a subject. ``FreeBSD problem'' or ``Help'' aren't enough. If you provide no subject at all, many people won't bother reading it. If your subject isn't specific enough, the people who can answer it may not read it. 3. Format your message so that it is legible, and PLEASE DON'T SHOUT!!!!!. We appreciate that a lot of people don't speak English as their first language, and we try to make allowances for that, but it's really painful to try to read a message written full of typos or without any line breaks. A lot of badly formatted messages come from bad mailers or badly configured mailers. The following mailers are known to send out badly formatted messages without you finding out about them: Eudora exmh Microsoft Exchange Microsoft Internet Mail Microsoft Outlook Netscape As you can see, the mailers in the Microsoft world are frequent offenders. If at all possible, use a UNIX mailer. If you must use a mailer under Microsoft environments, make sure it is set up correctly. Try not to use MIME: a lot of people use mailers which don't get on very well with MIME. For further information on this subject, check out http://www.lemis.com/email.html. 4. Make sure your time and time zone are set correctly. This may seem a little silly, since your message still gets there, but many of the people you are trying to reach get several hundred messages a day. They frequently sort the incoming messages by subject and by date, and if your message doesn't come before the first answer, they may assume they missed it and not bother to look. 5. Don't include unrelated questions in the same message. Firstly, a long message tends to scare people off, and secondly, it's more difficult to get all the people who can answer all the questions to read the message. 6. Specify as much information as possible. This is a difficult area, and we need to expand on what information you need to submit, but here's a start: If you get error messages, don't say ``I get error messages'', say (for example) ``I get the error message 'No route to host'''. If your system panics, don't say ``My system panicked'', say (for example) ``my system panicked with the message 'free vnode isn't'''. If you have difficulty installing FreeBSD, please tell us what hardware you have. In particular, it's important to know the IRQs and I/O addresses of the boards installed in your machine. If you have difficulty getting PPP to run, describe the configuration. Which version of PPP do you use? What kind of authentication do you have? Do you have a static or dynamic IP address? What kind of messages do you get in the log file? 7. If you don't get an answer immediately, or if you don't even see your own message appear on the list immediately, don't resend the message. Wait at least 24 hours. The FreeBSD mailer offloads messages to a number of subordinate mailers around the world, and sometimes it can take several hours for the mail to get through. And once it gets through, the one person who might know the answer will probably just have gone to bed in his part of the world. 8. If you do all this, and you still don't get an answer, there could be other reasons. For example, the problem is so complicated that nobody knows the answer, or the person who does know the answer was offline. If you don't get an answer after, say, a week, it might help to re-send the message. If you don't get an answer to your second message, though, you're probably not going to get one from this forum. Resending the same message again and again will only make you unpopular. To summarize, let's assume you know the answer to the following question (yes, it's the same one in each case :-). You choose which of these two questions you would be more prepared to answer: Message 1: Subject: (none) I just can't get hits damn silly FereBSD system to workd, and Im really good at this tsuff, but I have never seen anythign sho difficult to install, it jst wont work whatever I try so why don't y9ou guys tell me what I doing wrong. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message 2: Subject: Problems installing FreeBSD I've just got the FreeBSD 2.1.5 CD-ROM from Walnut Creek, and I'm having a lot of difficulty installing it. I have a 66 MHz 486 with 16 MB of memory and an Adaptec 1540A SCSI board, a 1.2GB Quantum Fireball disk and a Toshiba 3501XA CD-ROM drive. The installation works just fine, but when I try to reboot the system, I get the message "Missing Operating System". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- V: How to follow up to a question ================================= Often you will want to send in additional information to a question you have already sent. The best way to do this is to reply to your original message. This has three advantages: 1. You include the original message text, so people will know what you're talking about. Don't forget to trim unnecessary text out, though. 2. The text in the subject line stays the same (you did remember to put one in, didn't you?). Many mailers will sort messages by subject. This helps group messages together. 3. The message reference numbers in the header will refer to the previous message. Some mailers, such as mutt, can thread messages, showing the exact relationships between the messages. VI: How to answer a question ============================ Before you answer a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider: 1. A lot of the points on submitting questions also apply to answering questions. Read them. 2. Has somebody already answered the question? The easiest way to check this is to sort your incoming mail by subject: then (hopefully) you'll see the question followed by any answers, all together. If somebody has already answered it, it doesn't automatically mean that you shouldn't send another answer. But it makes sense to read all the other answers first. 3. Do you have something to contribute beyond what has already been said? In general, "Yeah, me too" answers don't help much, although there are exceptions, like when somebody is describing a problem he's having, and he doesn't know whether it's his fault or whether there's something wrong with the hardware or software. If you do send a "me too" answer, you should also include any further relevant information. 4. Are you sure you understand the question? Very frequently, the person who asks the question is confused or doesn't express himself very well. Even with the best understanding of the system, it's easy to send a reply which doesn't answer the question. This doesn't help: you'll leave the person who submitted the question more frustrated or confused than ever. If nobody else answers, and you're not too sure either, you can always ask for more information. 5. Are you sure your answer is correct? If not, wait a day or so. If nobody else comes up with a better answer, you can still reply and say, for example, "I don't know if this is correct, but since nobody else has replied, why don't you try replacing your ATAPI CD-ROM with a frog?". 6. Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, reply to the sender and to FreeBSD-questions. Many people on the FreeBSD-questions are "lurkers": they learn by reading messages sent and replied to by others. If you take a message which is of general interest off the list, you're depriving these people of their information. Be careful with group replies; lots of people send messages with hundreds of CCs. If this is the case, be sure to trim the Cc: lines appropriately. 7. Include relevant text from the original message. Trim it to the minimum, but don't overdo it. It should still be possible for somebody who didn't read the original message to understand what you're talking about. 8. Use some technique to identify which text came from the original message, and which text you add. I personally find that prepending ``> '' to the original message works best. Leaving white space after the ``> '' and leave empty lines between your text and the original text both make the result more readable. 9. Put your response in the correct place (after the text to which it replies). It's very difficult to read a thread of responses where each reply comes before the text to which it replies. 10. Most mailers change the subject line on a reply by prepending a text such as ``Re: ''. If your mailer doesn't do it automatically, you should do it manually. 11. If the submitter didn't abide by format conventions (lines too long, inappropriate subject line), please fix it. In the case of an incorrect subject line (such as ``HELP!!??''), change the subject line to (say) ``Re: Difficulties with sync PPP (was: HELP!!??)''. That way other people trying to follow the thread will have less difficulty following it. In such cases, it's appropriate to say what you did and why you did it, but try not to be rude. If you find you can't answer without being rude, don't answer. If you just want to reply to a message because of its bad format, just reply to the submitter, not to the list. You can just send him this message in reply, if you like.

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. In- evitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the first edition of 19 July 1996, please check ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/. This list is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the book to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at General changes _______________ o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the following command to find process information: $ ps aux | grep foo Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator upon which it is working. This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake for this information Location of the sample files ____________________________ On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM). The 2.2.5 CD-ROM came out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM as a single gzipped tar file /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz. It contains the following files: drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/ drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/mutt/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 352 Oct 15 15:21 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.mail_aliases -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 9394 Oct 15 15:22 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.muttrc drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 18281 Oct 16 16:52 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.fvwm2rc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 1392 Oct 17 12:54 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-desktop -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 296 Oct 17 12:35 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.xinitrc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 622 Oct 17 13:51 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-rcfiles -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1133 Oct 17 13:00 1997 cfbsd/scripts/Uutry -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1028 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/README drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 18 19:32 1997 cfbsd/docs/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 199111 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.txt Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 189333 Oct 16 14:28 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 188108 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 226439 Oct 16 14:27 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 788 Oct 16 15:01 1997 cfbsd/README -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 248 Oct 17 11:52 1997 cfbsd/errata To extract one of these files, say cfbsd/docs/packages.txt, and assuming you have the CD-ROM mounted as /cdrom, enter: # cd /usr/share/doc # tar xvzf /cdrom/xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz cfbsd/docs/packages.txt See page 209 for more information on using tar. These files are an early version of what is described in the book. I'll put up some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future. Thanks to Frank McCormick for drawing this to my attention. Chapter 8: Setting up X11 _________________________ For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical to distribute errata. You can download the PostScript version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps, or the ASCII version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt. No HTML version is available. Page xxxiv __________ Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add: In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents (sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh). With the exception of sh, they are all in the Ports Collection. I personally use the bash shell. This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard shell. The standard BSD shell is the C shell (csh), which has a fuller- featured descendent tcsh. In particular, the standard installation sets the root user up with a csh. See page 152 (in this errata) for details of how to change the shell. Page 3 General changes Page 11: Reading the handbook _____________________________ The CD-ROM now includes Netscape. Replace the last paragraph on the page and the example on the following page with: If you're running X, you can use a browser like netscape to read the handbook. If you don't have X running yet, use lynx. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. To install them, enter: # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-communicator-4.5.tgz or # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.8.1.1.tgz The numbers after the name (4.5 and 2.8.1.1) may change after this book has been printed. Use ls to list the names if you can't find these particular versions. Note that lynx is not a complete substitute for netscape: since it is text- only, it is not capable of displaying the large majority of web pages correctly. It will suffice for reading most of the handbook, however. Thanks to Stuart Henderson and for drawing this to my attention. Page 12: Printing the handbook ______________________________ The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete. Replace the section starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text: Alternatively, you can print out the handbook. You need to have the documentation sources (/usr/doc) installed on your system. You can find them on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name. To install them, first mount your CD-ROM (see page 175). Then enter: $ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook $ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook you may need to be root for this operation $ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook You have a choice of formats for the output: o ascii will give you plain 7-bit ASCII output, suitable for reading on a character-mode terminal. Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser. o latex will give you LATEX format, suitable for further processing with TEX and LATEX. o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing. o roff will give you output in troff source. You can process this output with nroff or troff, but it's currently not very polished. LATEX output is a better choice if you want to process it further. Once you have decided your format, use make to create the document. For example, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter: $ make FORMATS=ps This creates a file handbook.ps which you can then print to a PostScript printer or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222). Thanks to Bob Beer for drawing this to my attention. Page 45: Preparing floppies for installation _____________________________________________ Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page) with: The floppy set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start with bin. followed by two letters. These other files are all 240640 bytes long, except for the final one which is usually shorter. Use the MS-DOS COPY program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until you've got all the distributions you want packed up in this fashion. Copy each distribution into subdirectory corresponding to the base name--for example, copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on. Page 80 and 81 ______________ In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 5 General changes Page 88: setting up for dumping _______________________________ The example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf. This variable is no longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev. Page 92 _______ At the end of the section How to install a package add the text: Alternatively, you can install packages from the /stand/sysinstall Final Configuration Menu. We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71. When you start sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu by selecting Index, and then selecting Configure. Page 93 _______ Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add: Install ports when installing the system ________________________________________ The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all the ports. You can install it with the base system if you select the Custom distribution and include the ports collection. If you didn't install them at the time, use the following method to install them all (about 40 MB). Make sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter: Page 96 _______ Replace the example at the top of the page with: Instead, do: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # for i in *; do > ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i > done Page 6 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven and Francois Jacques for drawing this to my attention. Page 104 ________ The examples at the bottom of the page and the top of the next page specify the wrong directory (/usr). It should be /usr/X11R6. Replace the examples with: For a full install, choose /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz. If you are using sh, enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # for i in /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz; do # tar xzf $i # done If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % foreach i (/cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz) % tar xzf $i % end For a minimal installation, first choose a server archive corresponding to your VGA board. If table 8-2 on page 103 doesn't give you enough information, check the server man pages, starting on page 1545, which list the VGA chip sets supported by each server. For example, if you have an ET4000 based board you will use the XF86_SVGA server. In this case you would enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here # for i in bin fnts lib xicf; do # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331$i.tgz # done Page 7 Install ports when installing the system If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here % foreach i (bin fnts lib xicf) % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/$i % end Thanks to Manuel Enrique Garcia Cuesta for pointing out this one. Page 128 ________ Replace the complete text below the example with the following: These values are defaults, and many are either incorrect for FreeBSD (for example the device name /dev/com1) or do not apply at all (for example Xqueue). If you are configuring manually, select one Protocol and one Device entry from the following selection. If you must use a two-button mouse, uncomment the keyword Emulate3Buttons--in this mode, pressing both mouse buttons simultane- ously within Emulate3Timeout milliseconds causes the server to report a middle button press. Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" for Microsoft protocol mice Protocol "MouseMan" for Logitech mice Protocol "PS/2" for a PS/2 mouse Protocol "Busmouse" for a bus mouse Device "/dev/ttyd0" for a mouse on the first serial port Device "/dev/ttyd1" for a mouse on the second serial port Device "/dev/ttyd2" for a mouse on the third serial port Device "/dev/ttyd3" for a mouse on the fourth serial port Device "/dev/psm0" for a PS/2 mouse Device "/dev/mse0" for a bus mouse Emulate3Buttons only for a two-button mouse EndSection You'll notice that the protocol name does not always match the manufacturer's Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech mice. The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft protocols. Nearly all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both. If you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver is included in the kernel. The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both mice, but the PS/2 driver is disabled. Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it. Page 140 ________ Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph: If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. Reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter: # mount -u / mount root file system read/write # mount /usr mount /usr file system (if separate) # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup If you have a separate /usr file system (the normal case), you need to mount it as well, since the passwd program is in the directory /usr/bin. Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 148 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Modern shells supply command line editing which resembles the editors vi or Emacs. In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering Page 152 ________ After figure 10-8, add the following text: It would be tedious for every user to put settings in their private initialization files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file. For the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three Page 9 Install ports when installing the system files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the corresponding individual files. In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environment variables at a global level. Changing your shell ___________________ The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing. See page 148 for details of how to enable it. You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection. You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash, also in the Ports Collection. If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's an example before: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /bin/csh Full Name: Jack Velte Location: Office Phone: Home Phone: You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this to: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash Full Name: Jack Velte Location: On the road Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999 Home Phone: Page 10 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition chsh checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and exit the editor. The next time you log in, you get the new shell. chsh tries to ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a very good idea to check the shell before logging out. You can try this with su, which you normally use to become super user: bumble# su velte Password: su-2.00$ note the new prompt There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell: o The shell for root must be on the root file system, otherwise it will not work in single user mode. Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is almost never on the root file system. o Most shells are dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files such as /usr/lib/libc.a. These files are not available in single user mode, so the shells won't work. You can solve this problem by creating statically linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond the scope of this book. If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps to install it: o Copy the shell to /bin, for example: # cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells, in this example the line in bold print: # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1). # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using # one of these shells. /bin/sh /bin/csh /bin/bash You can then change the shell for root as described above. Page 11 Install ports when installing the system Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. Page 160 ________ Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 169 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: The standard solution for these problems is to relocate the /tmp file system to a different directory, say /usr/tmp, and create a symbolic link from /usr/tmp to /tmp--see Chapter 4, Installing FreeBSD, page 72, for more details. Thanks to Charlie Sorsby for drawing this to my attention. Page 176 ________ Add the following paragraph Unmounting file systems When you mount a file system, the system assumes it is going to stay there, and in the interests of efficiency it delays writing data back to the file system. This is the same effect we discussed on page 158. As a result, if you want to stop using a file system, you need to tell the system about it. You do this with the umount command. Note the spelling--there's no n in the command name. You need to do this even with read-only media such as CD-ROMs: the system assumes it can access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite unhappy if it can't. Where possible, it locks removable media so that you can't remove them from the device until you unmount them. Using umount is straightforward: just tell it what to unmount, either the device name or the directory name. For example, to unmount the CD-ROM we Page 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands: # umount /dev/cd1a # umount /cd1 Before unmounting a file system, umount checks that nobody is using it. If somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like umount: /cd1: Device busy. This message often occurs because you have changed your directory to a directory on the file system you want to remove. For example (which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt): === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1 umount: /cd1: Device busy === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1 === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 -> Thanks to Ken Deboy for pointing out this omission. Page 180 ________ The example in the middle of the page should read: For example, to generate a second set of 32 pseudo-terminals, enter: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV pty1 You can generate up to 256 pseudo-terminals. They are named ttyp0 through ttypv, ttyq0 through ttyqv, ttyr0 through ttyrv, ttys0 through ttysv, ttyP0 through ttyPv, ttyQ0 through ttyQv, ttyR0 through ttyRv and ttyS0 through ttySv. To create each set of 32 terminals, use the number of the set: the first set is pty0, and the eighth set is pty7. Note that some processes, such as xterm, only look at ttyp0 through ttysv. Thanks to Karl Wagner for pointing out this error. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: Page 13 Install ports when installing the system The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label. Page 208, middle of page ________________________ The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and /dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use /dev/nrst0 with any shell if you want a non-rewinding tape, or /dev/rst0 if you want a rewinding tape. Thanks to Norman C Rice for pointing out this one. Page 219 ________ Before the section Testing the spooler add the following section: As we saw above, the line printer daemon lpd is responsible for printing spooled jobs. By default it isn't started at boot time. If you're root, you can start it by name: # lpd Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system starts up. You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf: lpd_enable="YES" # Run the line printer daemon See page for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Another line in /etc/rc.conf refers to the line printer daemon: lpd_flags="" # Flags to lpd (if enabled). You don't normally need to change this line. See the man page for lpd for details of the flags. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my attention. Page 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 231 ________ Replace the first line of the example with: xhost presto bumble gw The original version allowed anybody on the Internet to access your system. Thanks to Jerry Dunham for drawing this one to my attention. Page 237 ________ In the section Installing the sample desktop, replace the first paragraph with: You'll find all the files described in this chapter on the first CD-ROM (Installation CD-ROM) in the directory /book. Remember that you must mount the CD-ROM before you can access the files--see page 175 for further details. The individual scripts are in the directory /book/scripts, but you'll probably find it easier to install them with the script install-desktop: Thanks to Chris Kaiser for drawing this to my attention. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in the directory /src. Replace the example with: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/src/ssys.[a-d]* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel , Suttipan Limanond and Satwant for finding this one in several small slices. Page 15 Install ports when installing the system Page 257 ________ Replace the paragraph Berkeley Packet Filter with: pseudo-device bpfilter ______________________ The Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) allows you to capture packets crossing a network interface to disk or to examine them with the tcpdump program. Note that this capability represents a significant compromise of network security. The number after bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes that can use the facility. Not all network interfaces support bpf. In order to use the Berkeley Packet Filter, you must also create the device nodes /dev/bpf0 to /dev/bpf3 (if you're using the default number 4). Current- ly, MAKEDEV doesn't help much--you need to create each device separately: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV bpf0 # ./MAKEDEV bpf1 # ./MAKEDEV bpf2 # ./MAKEDEV bpf3 Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 264 ________ In the list of disk driver flags, add: o Bit 12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode). If this bit is not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode. o In CHS mode, if bits 11 to 8 are not equal to 0, they specify the number of heads to assume (between 1 and 15). The driver recalculates the number of cylinders to make up the total size of the disk. Page 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 273, ``Building the kernel'' _________________________________ Replace the example with: Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel: # cd ../../compile/FREEBIE # make depend # make The make depend is needed even if the directory has just been created: apart from creating dependency information, it also creates some files needed for the build. Thanks to Mark Ovens for drawing this to my attention. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' ______________________________________ Add a third point to what you need to know: 3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates. This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. ___________________________________ Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 17 Install ports when installing the system Page 294 ________ Add the following section: Problems executing Linux binaries _________________________________ One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux binaries is that they usually contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries. They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries. That's not really a problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 3.2 understands is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format as well, and of course that's the default. If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on such a system, you must brand the executable using the program brandelf. For example, to brand the StarOffice program swriter3, you would enter: # brandelf -t linux /usr/local/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3 Thanks to Dan Busarow for bringing this to my attention. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the corresponding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 422 ________ Replace the text above the example with: tcpdump is a program which monitors a network interface and displays selected information which passes through it. It uses the Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf), an optional component of the kernel. It is not included in the GENERIC kernel: see page 257 for information on how to configure it. If you don't configure the Berkeley Packet Filter, you will get a message like tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: device not configured If you forget to create the devices for bpf, you will get a message like: tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: No such file or directory Since tcpdump poses a potential security problem, you must be root in order to run it. The simplest way to run it is without any parameters. This will cause tcpdump to monitor and display all traffic on the first active network interface, normally Ethernet: Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 19 Install ports when installing the system Page 423 ________ The description at the top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address instead of Ethernet address. In addition, a page number reference is incorrect. Replace the paragraph with: o Line 1 shows an ARP request: system presto is looking for the Ethernet address of wait. It would appear that wait is currently not responding, since there is no reply. o Line 2 is not an IP message at all. tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and the beginning of the packet. We don't consider this kind of request in this book. o Line 3 is a broadcast ntp message. We looked at ntp on page 160. o Line 4 is another attempt by presto to find the IP address of wait. o Line 5 is a broadcast message from bumble on the rwho port, giving information about its current load averages and how long it has been up. See the man page for rwho on page 1167 for more information. o Line 6 is from a TCP connection between port 6000 on freebie and port 1089 on presto. It is sending 384 bytes (with the sequence numbers 536925467 to 536925851; see page 305), and is acknowledging that the last byte it received from presto had the sequence number 325114346. The window size is 17280. o Line 7 is another ARP request. presto is looking for the Ethernet address of freebie. How can that happen? We've just seen that they have a TCP connection. In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes. It's quite possible that all connections between presto and freebie have been dormant for this period, so presto needs to find freebie's IP address again. o Line 8 is the ARP reply from freebie to presto giving its Ethernet address. o Line 9 shows a reply from presto on the connection to freebie that we saw on line 6. It acknowledges the data up to sequence number 536925851, but doesn't send any itself. o Line 10 shows another 448 bytes of data from freebie to presto, and acknowledging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6. Thanks to Sergei S. Laskavy for drawing this to my Page 20 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition attention. Page 450: anonymous ftp _______________________ Replace the paragraph starting with Create a user ftp: Create a user ftp, with the anonymous ftp directory as the home directory and the shell /dev/null. Using /dev/null as the shell makes it impossible to log in as user ftp, but does not interfere with the use of anonymous ftp. ftp can be a member of group bin, or you can create a new group ftp by adding the group to /etc/group. See page 138 for more details of adding users, and the man page on page 805 for adding groups. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for drawing this to my attention. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the Page 21 Install ports when installing the system directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd. Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very important: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%.

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. In- evitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999. You'll find this information on page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of Contents). See the end of this document for instructions on how to find the errata for an older version. You can get the current document in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ps. See page 302 of the third edition to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-3.html. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at Page ii _______ The instructions on page ii (opposite the title page) tell you to look at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2 for the errata list. That's wrong. Look at this list. Pages 190 and 191 _________________ The description is not very clear about which text appears when booting from floppy for initial install, and which appears when booting normally. The procedure is very similar, but there are some differences. Add the following text after the heading Boot messages: You'll boot your system in at least two different ways: initially you'll boot from floppy or CD-ROM in order to install the system. Later, after the system is installed, you'll boot from hard disk. The procedure is almost identical, so we'll look at both versions in the following examples. Replace the text from the middle of page 191 with: If you're booting from 1.44 MB floppies, you will then see: Please insert MFS root floppy and press enter: When you insert the MFS root floppy and press Enter, you see more twirling batons, then the UserConfig screen appears. UserConfig: Modifying the boot configuration ____________________________________________ After the kernel has been loaded, the following screen will appear if you are installing the system, or if you have requested it with the -c option to the boot loader: Page 206 ________ The bottom two lines on this page should be in bold constant font, indicating that this is input for your /etc/rc.config file Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition nfs_client_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS client (or NO). nfs_server_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS server (or NO). Page 265 ________ The example on the second half of the page refers to the old SCSI driver. The scsi program is no longer available in FreeBSD 3.x. Instead, use the camcontrol program. Replace the text with:. Modern disks make provisions for recovering from such errors by allocating an alternate sector for the data. IDE drives do this automatically, but with SCSI drives you have the option of enabling or disabling reallocation. Usually it is turned on when you buy them, but occasionally it is not. When installing a new disk, you should check that the parameters ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enable) and AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enable) are turned on. For example, to check and set the values for disk da1, you would enter: # camcontrol modepage da1 -m 1 -e -P 3 # scsi -f /dev/rda1c -m 1 -e -P 3 This command will start up your favourite editor (either the one specified in the EDITOR environment variable, or vi by default) with the following data: AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enbld): 0 ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enbld): 1 TB (Transfer Block): 0 RC (Read Continuous): 0 EER (Enable Early Recovery): 0 PER (Post Error): 0 DTE (Disable Transfer on Error): 0 DCR (Disable Correction): 0 Read Retry Count: 16 Correction Span: 41 Head Offset Count: 0 Data Strobe Offset Count: 0 Write Retry Count: 16 Recovery Time Limit: 0 The values for AWRE and ARRE should both be 1. If they aren't, as in this case, where AWRE is 0, change the data with the editor, save it, and exit. The camcontrol program will write the data back to the disk and enable the option. Page 3 The Complete FreeBSD Page 331 ________ The description of the config refers to the SCSI drive sd0. This is the old name; in FreeBSD version 3, SCSI drives are called da, so this reference should be da0. Thanks to Francisco Reyes for pointing out this problem. Page 362 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel: # cd ../../compile/FREEBIE # make depend # make The make depend is needed even if the directory has just been created: apart from creating dependency information, it also creates some files needed for the build. Thanks to Mark Ovens for drawing this to my attention, and to Francisco Reyes and Bill Fumerola for pointing out that it still wasn't fixed in the third edition. Page 409 ________ The information on setting the default routers specified the wrong end of the PPP links in some places. It should always be the ``far'' end of the link. Replace the second example on page 409, and the text following it, with this text: defaultrouter="139.130.136.129" # Set to default gateway (or NO). static_routes="" # Set to static route list (or leave empty). gateway_enable="YES" # Set to YES if this host will be a gateway. This is the normal way to set the default route on a point-to-point interface. In fact, for PPP you don't need to specify the default address: the PPP packages will set it for you when the link comes up. This makes it possible to Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition set default routes when you're forced to use dynamic IP addresses, where you don't know the address at this point. We'll see how PPP does this on page 446. In the first example on page 410, the sixth example on page 412 and the second example on page 413, replace the defaultrouter definition with: defaultrouter="139.130.237.65" # Set to default gateway (or NO). Thanks to Andreas Longwitz for pointing out this error. Getting errata for older editions of the book _____________________________________________ There have been a total of five different versions of ``The Complete FreeBSD''. The most accurate way to distinguish them is by the format date, which you'll find at the bottom of page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of Contents) in all versions of the book. 1. The first was titled ``Installing and running FreeBSD'', and was formatted on 24 February 1996. No errata list exists for this book. 2. For the first edition (19 July 1996), get ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/er- rata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/errata-1. I am no longer updating this errata list. 3. The list for the second edition (16 December 1997) is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the second edition to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only Page 5 Getting errata for older editions of the book take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html. 4. The revised second edition was formatted on 11 February 1999. As the name suggests, it's not a complete new edition: in fact, only three chapters are different: o The chapter ``Setting up X11'' has been brought up to date. o Appendix D (``Contents of the Ports Collection'') has been replaced by two appendixes, ``Errata and Addenda'' (the errata list up to date at the time) and ``FreeBSD 3.0'', which describes the differences between FreeBSD 2.x and FreeBSD 3.x. There is no separate errata list for this book. Refer to the second edition errata list. 5. The current, third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999. This is the correct list for this edition.

Yes. However, as already stated, that collects it's information from dmesg.today, which no longer contains the information.

It seems to go through this again a day or two after any reboot. The message wording makes it sound like it's taking care of the problem, whatever it really is... a) Is this a problem (something I need to worry about)? b) Is there something I can do to set it up right at boot time instead of it's renegotiating it's way up over the next few days? (By the way, if it helps any, it's a DEC Pentium 266 with a DE450 and a DE500 NIC, the latter is having the problem. It's running RELEASE-3.3.)

A user is advised to do the following: # cd /usr/src # tar -xvzf /cdrom/dists/src/ssmailcf.aa in order to ensure that she/he has the required sources. After checking all the four CDs of 3.3 release I wasn't able to find the /cdrom/dists/src/ssmailcf.aa file.

I have an older AST laptop. A 486 4/SL Power Exec to be exact and I'm thinking of switching my OS from DOS and Windows 3.1 to FreeBSD. What I'd like to know is can I easily use FreeBSD without too big a learning curve? Will it be a faster running OS than I'm currently using and will I be able to utilize TCP/IP for internet and e-mail access. I'm mainly interesting in writing letters and papers and sending e-mail with this laptop. That's it. Thanks for your help.

From the exports(5) manpage, "A host may be specified only once for each local filesystem on the server and there may be only one default en- try for each server filesystem that applies to all other hosts." The original poster had made two default entries for the /usr filesystem. This is not allowed. You are _not_ forced to use the -alldirs option however. This, /usr/src /usr/obj -maproot=0 Is a perfectly valid exports specification. It will do what you want. -- Crist J.

I also vaguely recall that there might be an issue that FreeBSD will run with only x MB, but you need (x+y) MB in order to run the install. > and a 400 meg.

As someone else mentioned, there are plenty of freeware and shareware tools to repartition DOS drives without loosing info. I personally like using FreeBSD to make "legacy hardware," like 486s, useful (a 486 can be a good firewall, dialup machine, etc.), but the particular machine you seem to have there is pushing the limit. -- Crist J.

There's an ftp site, current.freebsd.org (or usw2.freebsd.org) that has daily snaps for -current and -stable. It also has isos. 3.3-19991211-STABLE.iso is in the "/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/i386/ISO-IMAGES" directory, and would also be the iso for 3.4-RC, as 3.4 will be a snap along the 3 branch. If you installed from the snap on the server or downloaded the iso and used it for installation, you would have the latest stable, and therefore also the 3.4 Release Candidate. It is only a few days from actual release (December 15), so it's to let freebsd-stable know of any problems. Annelise On Sat, 11 Dec 1999, Mr. K. wrote: > I'm assuming you meant 3.4 RC.

The program's functionality relies on two start-up files: rc.local --> starts the daemon in the background rc.S/sysinit --> creates a timestamp on startup It's very important for the way the program functions that creating the timestamp during startup only happens ONCE, no matter if runlevels are switched, etc etc. I have found rc.local, is there a FreeBSD equivalent to this rc.S or rc.sysinit file and what is it?

Not really, because the timestamp will still be there when the system is _really_ rebooted but it will have to be updated in that case. My uptime records daemon relies on the timestamp because I've found it a much more reliable 'boot session' identifier than the boottime given by the system. (that one changes upon daylight savings, rdate, etc) It would work if the timestamp could be cleaned upon startup... but if that was possible, my initial idea would be too, I think.

What is ${PREFIX} ??? rc runs every file fitting the glob *.sh from a list of directories at the end of the startup. By default, this list contains /usr/local/etc/rc.d and /usr/X11R6/etc/rc.d. Ports (3rd party packages, such as yours) are typically installed in either /usr/local or /usr/X11R6. Whenever a port is being built under the ports system, the PREFIX make/environment variable is set to the destination location (for example, /usr/local). This way, a user can override where ports are installed if they want them all under /opt or something similar. Basically, if you create a file mydaemon.sh which is a Bourne shell (/bin/sh) script that starts up your daemon, then that small script can be copied to /usr/local/etc/rc.d (default value of ${PREFIX}/etc/rc.d) and it will be run on every switch from single-user to multi-user (including boot up). > marc. > > >> -----Original Message----- >> From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG >> Subject: RE: rc.sysinit alike file in FreeBSD? >> >> >> rc.local is deprecated.

Been a while since I went through the kernel configs and I don't have a machine handy that I feel like rebooting. But IIRC, you just need to leave the IDE controllers enabled. -- Crist J.

The glitch happens when I change desk-tops in KDE during a down-load. I get anywhere from 1 to 15 silo overflows each time I switch. I have tried other loads on processors such as pkg_add, play MP3, daily cron jobs and have no problem. I believe the problem is with the system and the way handles interrupts with dual processors. I do not have the problem when running with a single processor. I have tried increasing the receive buffer size from 16 to 64k with no effect. I have decreased the baud rate to the modem which does decrease the number of overflows but does not eliminate them. Any ideas or suggestions?

Seriously. I do have evidence to back this up -- I just recently had a rash of hard disk failures, in which small portions of the disk started reporting media failures. Where softupdates was enabled parts of the disk that were not involved with the hardware failure were also corrupted. In several cases, I ended up with partitions I could not clean with fsck. All I could do was mount them read-only and copy them elsewhere. *One* I couldn't even do that -- the root node was gone. Fortunately, that was just a /var partition. I'm not sure what the fix here is. Softupdates *should not* have this effect. My guess is that what is happening is that softupdates doesn't handle I/O errors well. The quick hack would be for softupdates to disable itself as soon as a partition reports an I/O error....

RTFM, smb.conf(5) bind interfaces only (G) This global parameter allows the Samba admin to limit what interfaces on a machine will serve smb requests. If affects file service smbd and name service nmbd in slightly different ways. For name service it causes nmbd to bind to ports 137 and 138 on the interfaces listed in the 'inter- faces' parameter. nmbd also binds to the 'all addresses' interface (0.0.0.0) on ports 137 and 138 for the purposes of reading broadcast messages. If this option is not set then nmbd will service name requests on all of these sockets. If "bind inter- faces only" is set then nmbd will check the source address of any packets coming in on the broadcast sockets and discard any that don't match the broad- cast addresses of the interfaces in the 'inter- faces' parameter list. As unicast packets are received on the other sockets it allows nmbd to refuse to serve names to machines that send packets that arrive through any interfaces not listed in the "interfaces" list. IP Source address spoofing does defeat this simple check, however so it must not be used seriously as a security feature for nmbd. For file service it causes smbd to bind only to the interface list given in the 'interfaces' parameter. This restricts the networks that smbd will serve to packets coming in those interfaces. Note that you should not use this parameter for machines that are serving PPP or other intermittent or non-broadcast network interfaces as it will not cope with non- permanent interfaces. If "bind interfaces only" is set then unless the network address 127.0.0.1 is added to the 'inter- faces' parameter list smbpasswd and swat may not work as expected due to the reasons covered below. To change a users SMB password, the smbpasswd by default connects to the "localhost" - 127.0.0.1 address as an SMB client to issue the password change request. If "bind interfaces only" is set then unless the network address 127.0.0.1 is added to the 'interfaces' parameter list then smbpasswd will fail to connect in it's default mode. smb- passwd can be forced to use the primary IP inter- face of the local host by using its "-r remote machine" parameter, with "remote machine" set to the IP name of the primary interface of the local host. The swat status page tries to connect with smbd and nmbd at the address 127.0.0.1 to determine if they are running. Not adding 127.0.0.1 will cause smbd and nmbd to always show "not running" even if they really are. This can prevent swat from start- ing/stopping/restarting smbd and nmbd. Default: bind interfaces only = False Example: bind interfaces only = True interfaces (G) This option allows you to setup multiple network interfaces, so that Samba can properly handle browsing on all interfaces. The option takes a list of ip/netmask pairs. The netmask may either be a bitmask, or a bitlength. For example, the following line: interfaces = 192.168.2.10/24 192.168.3.10/24 would configure two network interfaces with IP addresses 192.168.2.10 and 192.168.3.10. The net- masks of both interfaces would be set to 255.255.255.0. You could produce an equivalent result by using: interfaces = 192.168.2.10/255.255.255.0 192.168.3.10/255.255.255.0 if you prefer that format. If this option is not set then Samba will attempt to find a primary interface, but won't attempt to configure more than one interface. See also "bind interfaces only". -- Crist J.

A collegue set up an K7/600 machine (if I remember right) with 256 mbytes of memory (2 x 128 mb) with a MSI motherboard (MSI6167 or something like that, they have only one Athlon board yet). It runs, and it runs very fast, but he isn't satisfyied with stability yet. The RAM modules had to be changed (they work on an Asus P2B-S with a P-II/350 now, and the (similar) modules are on the MSI board) and although the documentation says so, he had to take care to put the modules in the 1st and 2nd memory slot, when they were in the 2nd and 3rd it didn't work well. And there was something with Windows NT - although it wasn't the intention to use NT on this machine, it was on the disk he first used and it didn't recognize the network adapter (a D-Link 550TX or so, DEC21041 based, and we have a bunch of them working fine in other machines). Unfortunately there aren't many motherboards available yet, especially nothing with SCSI onboard. We're looking for another motherboard now, may be the Gigabyte K7 board is a good choice. (As the faster Athlons will be produced in Dresden which is only about 30 km away, we have a kind of special interest of using those CPUs :-) ) Regards, Martin -- /| /| | /| / ,,You know, there's a lot of opportunities, / |/ | artin |/ |/ elk if you're knowing to take them, you know, there's a lot of opportunities, Freiberg/Saxony, Germany if there aren't you can make them, mw@sax.de / mw@theatre.sax.de make or break them!''

I've found freebsd and linux to be equally problemsome -- most of the time they're pain free. I've found linux to boot more flexibly because you can: have multiple distributions on one disk loadlin seems to work well (there's a freebsd equivalent which I had problems with in 2.2) I just read Greg Lehey's book (really good) -- I'm going to install 3.2 soon...(thank god for Elf support -- now I can look into cross-compiling ;-)) Maybe your problem is you spent one minute on the system and 30 seconds trying to log in... Linux 1.0 needed a lot of work...2.2 seems very stable (I'm running redhat 6.0 and haven't had a crash yet in about 9 months on a machine which I do a lot of stuff on...) If anyone has a real problem with rh6, there's lots of places to get help from. I'm really annoyed at this anti-Linux flaming...If you have specific gripes, funny, but to say "it sucks"...come on!

I have been trying for about a week now with cvsups on various days and also getting ctm, I tried empty and with various additions, - No JOY. I was running 3.0 a good while ago and I had problems with that but after doing the upgrade and following the advice from "nothinggoingon" I managed to become current. Now it seams that this wont work for me any more, Any suggestions Thanks Tim.

We developed a video transfer intra-network system and it is working. But it transfers Unicast IP packet. And there arises the necesity to convert to Multicast transfer. So,I am testing to transfer multicast packets using prototype system connecting a Server(WindowsNT)-Router(FreeBSD version2.2.7)-Client(WindowsNT). NT-Server and NT-Client enters a multicastgroup address 244.0.1.1 using setsockopt.Client binds to wait for multicast packets and server sends packets. Although they use multicastgroup address 244.0.1.1,they individually hold each IP address.(I tried to change IP address in Windows' TCP/IP protocol contorol but it denied entering 244.0.1.1 so I kept them just as previously.) Client-192.168.79.3. Server-192.168.79.22.(when using router I change this to 192.168.79.38) subnet mask- 255.255.255.224 Without router and directly connecting client and server,they communicate correctly. But if I try to connect them using router,the router does not work correctly. It looks like that the multicast packets destined to 244.0.1.1 arrives ip_output routine alright, but after that do look-up routing table(rt_tables[]) and there's no route to host holding matching destination and they are all discarded. Also,I have a concern. I'd like to use FreeBSD version2.2.7 but should I version-up to 3.3 if I use Multicast function.I am worried if there's definite difference between them concerning Multicast function. I honestly implore senior members to drag me out of this predicament.

Make sure that you uncollapse all the items in the configuration and delete any conflicts you have anything with "conf" just delete those and continue on. The problem looks like it is related to lnc0 not probed due to I/O address conflict with ed0 at 0x280. When you run the kernel configuration mode it should point out the conflict.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I'm trying to install a new SCSI card (Adaptec 2940U2W), a new SCSI disk, and FreeBSD 3.3 (from the CDROM) on a machine that's currently running 2.2.6 and using a 2940AU. Machine currently has 1 SCSI disk and 1 IDE disk. When booting from the 3.3 installer floppy with only the current SCSI disk online, with either the old or the new SCSI card, everything will go fine. With the new disk present, the boot process will apparently get very slow when probing (or perhaps stuck - I let it sit 10 minutes after the last message) and complain about parity errors and timeouts (exact messages available upon request). I formatted and surface-tested the new disk using the embedded (on the new card) utility and everything apparently went fine. As far as I can tell, everything is properly terminated and there are no ID conflicts. I tried booting with the new disk only, thinking that perhaps the old one was too slow or otherwise caused the problem, to no avail. I haven't tried, and will probably try while waiting for an answer: - Installing a lesser OS on the new disk and see what happens (to rule out basic disk/card/bus problems that the formatting wouldn't spot); - Installing 3.3 on the existing disk; - Kicking and swearing at the machine, the OS, the documentation, and the general unfairness of life. :-) advTHANKSance. -- Weapon safety tip: "Before shooting yourself in the foot, take your foot out of your mouth." --Leslie Burgess To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Dec 11 22: 6: 6 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from zagnut.hotpop.com (zagnut.hotpop.com [204.57.55.32]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A040114E53 for ; Sat, 11 Dec 1999 22:06:03 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kamidesu@hotpop.com) Received: from wingate (unknown [216.72.93.59]) by zagnut.hotpop.com (Postfix) with SMTP id 3D9C9639D1 for ; Sat, 11 Dec 1999 18:10:29 -0500 (EST) From: m To: FreeBSD-Questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: multiple questions MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Becky! ver 1.25.07 Message-Id: <19991211231029.3D9C9639D1@zagnut.hotpop.com> Date: Sat, 11 Dec 1999 18:10:29 -0500 (EST) X-HotPOP: ----------------------------------------------- Sent By HotPOP.com FREE Email Get your FREE POP email at www.HotPOP.com ----------------------------------------------- Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi.

In X, this is done more in "environments" type of things. I think that fvwm and fvwm95 as window managers will do ALT+TAB, but I'm not sure about virtual desktops. I KNOW that Gnome and KDE will do Both. I've used both, and, while Gnome is quite flashy, have currently found KDE to be extremely reliable and provide a very familiar desktop environment for me. I do expect Gnome to catch up rapidly, however. There are ports for both KDE and Gnome.

I have few Apache modules (written by me), they are working with mySQL databases and based on Apache C API. They works perfectly well at my FreeBSD 2.2.8-STABLE with Apache 1.3.9 and mySQL 3.22.25. When I upgrade my system to FreeBSD 3.3-STABLE (Apache 1.3.9/mySQL 3.22.25) I found that my modules DOES NOT work on it! httpd fails with error 11 (so no core dump created). Some modules works, but I big part -- not. They are using ap_internal_redirect () fucntion, so I checked everything -- may be I did some wrong pathnames? No. Then, I though that this is because I am using gcc/ld and do not use apxs. After using apxs no changes appeared -- still httpd fails! So, I decide to test one of my modules step-by-step. And I found that when I am calling for little function like this: void dummy (void) { } it fails!!! Why? I do not understand. May be you will help me with this problem? At this moment, I think that Apache (or FreeBSD) has problems with ELF binaries. May be Apache couldn't work with ELF binaries correctly? I do not know the reason. Thank you.

I had someone who knows firewall rules much better than I setup a system of mine for maximum security. I just noticed that since I implemented those rules I can no longer use ntpdate. It always seems to fail saying it cannot find a server. After a bit of digging I'm pretty sure that the problem is simple--the packets can't get back to ntpdate. So then I tried playing with my firewall rules. Luckily the server is still sitting here and not in some far off hosting place as I managed to screw things up pretty bad. :-) So, after a bunch of mucking around, I have decided I have no clue how to fix this NTP problem. What rules do I need to add to my configuration to allow NTP to work? Here's what I'm using now: # Stop RFC1918 nets on the outside interface $fwcmd add deny log all from 192.168.0.0:255.255.0.0 to any in recv ${oif} $fwcmd add deny log all from 172.16.0.0:255.240.0.0 to any in recv ${oif} $fwcmd add deny log all from 10.0.0.0:255.0.0.0 to any in recv ${oif} # Allow any ip (tcp and udp) packets to go out the outside interface $fwcmd add pass all from any to any out xmit ${oif} # Allow established tcp connections from outside interface $fwcmd add pass tcp from any to any in recv ${oif} established #allows smtp $fwcmd add pass log tcp from any to any 25 in recv ${oif} setup #allows ssh $fwcmd add pass log tcp from any to any 22 in recv ${oif} setup #allows ftp $fwcmd add pass log tcp from any to any 20 in recv ${oif} setup $fwcmd add pass log tcp from any to any 21 in recv ${oif} setup $fwcmd add pass log tcp from any 20 to any in recv ${oif} setup $fwcmd add pass log tcp from any 21 to any in recv ${oif} setup #allows http $fwcmd add pass log tcp from any to any 80 in recv ${oif} setup #allows pop3 $fwcmd add pass log tcp from any to any 110 in recv ${oif} setup # Deny and log setup of any other tcp connections from outside interface $fwcmd add deny log tcp from any to any in recv ${oif} setup # Allow replies to DNS queries from outside interface $fwcmd add pass udp from any 53 to any 1024-65535 in recv ${oif} $fwcmd add pass udp from any to any 53 in recv ${oif} # Allow outbound pings $fwcmd add pass icmp from any to any in recv ${oif} icmptypes 0 $fwcmd add pass icmp from any to any out xmit ${oif} icmptypes 8 # Allow outbound traceroutes $fwcmd add pass icmp from any to any in recv ${oif} icmptypes 3 $fwcmd add pass icmp from any to any in recv ${oif} icmptypes 11 # Everything else is denied by default, but let's log it too $fwcmd add 65534 deny log ip from any to any Thanks! l8r Sean http://www.bebits.com/ BeBits - All the best BeOS software. ----------------------------------- This message was sent with the demo version of Postmaster, a BeOS mail client.

I could be mistaken here (and by all means, correct me if I'm wrong), but I don't think the answer you're looking for is on the host machine. Remember that the X terminal is essentially a stripped-down computer running only an X server, and it is the X server that communicates with the video hardware. Thus any configuration you want to do to your X server (like specifying display bit depth) should be done through your X terminal. So try your X terminal documentation. If I'm totally off base with this one, I apologise for leading you astray. But I don't think it's XDM; by the time XDM hears from anything not on the local machine, it expects to be talking to an X server. And by the way: specifying options for the X server on the *local* machine (not a remote terminal or diskless workstation) could probably be done (though not very elegantly) through the Xservers file in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm.

For ntp you want to add the following rule just before the last one: $fwcmd add pass udp from any ntp to any ntp in recv ${oif} Your firewall code should be able to resolve "ntp" using the contents of /etc/services. If it doesn't, replace "ntp" in this rule with "123". --- Greg Cronau gregc@pm-tech.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Dec 12 0:32: 0 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from obscurity.org (obscurity.org [209.17.177.240]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 4699F14D34 for ; Sun, 12 Dec 1999 00:31:58 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from cengland@obscurity.org) Received: (qmail 28475 invoked by uid 1003); 12 Dec 1999 08:45:04 -0000 Received: from localhost (sendmail-bs@127.0.0.1) by localhost with SMTP; 12 Dec 1999 08:45:04 -0000 Date: Sun, 12 Dec 1999 00:45:04 -0800 (PST) From: Chris England To: "Stapley, Peter J."

I can boot from the SCSI CD-ROM and get to the visual config. I then del out all the unwanted support and the Quit & Save. The install process continues with further scans of the hardware until it gets to the SCSI section. I get the 'waiting 15 seconds for SCSI devices to settle' message - and then nothing, the system hangs (I have waited over 8 hours and no response). I have tried a 'boot -cv' and it appears that the install looks at the bios for the drive geometries just prior the the '15 second settle', and they are dumped to the console as all 0000's (curious indeed). I have check the termination, I have disabled all the onboard/built-in devices (like the ether card), and turned off the Adaptec 7880 (replacing it with a PCI 2940 unit. I have even tried setting 'eisa 8' in the startup, but still no dice. Any ideas??

(it's working really great as a NFS file server, SAMBA file server, ftp file server, IP masquering for my cable modem connection, etc, and I just love it) Now my questions are, can FreeBSD play QuakeIII within Linux emulation? And can anyone suggest me good applications I should install? (graphic applications, mp3 players, utilities, etc) And finally, I have couple questions about MBR. Is there anyway to veiw and edit MBR other that just erasing it with "fdisk /MBR" on MSDOS? I always feel uneasy when I do "fdisk /MBR"; feels like I'm erasing some vital data on first sector and I especially don't want to try it on my new pc without knowing what's going on. This was for boot manager, just in case I want to uninstall it. Oh, my last question is everytime I install FreeBSD from CD, it tells me that some ports or datas are missing and it points out that I was installing it from "local". So I try with ftp install, it gave me same error. It works fine though. It was FreeBSD 3.3 by the way. Sorry for random questions. I'm open to any suggestions and thank you for help.

Is there a specific reason you are looking to move from sendmail to qmail? If you are looking to move from sendmail because of problems with sendmail then you might also consider other MTAs. postfix is one which internally works similarly to qmail, but is intended as a plug-in replacement to sendmail, sendmail.cf excepted. Performancewise I think you may find both to be in a similar league (i.e. much faster than sendmail). See http://www.postfix.org for more details. I think there is a freebsd port of postfix, if not postfix installs out of the box. It also comes with "migration instructions". If you are only interested in qmail then I apologise for wasting your time.

I am looking into purchasing a second hard drive and as well some kind of removable media. I am confused about whether the Adaptec 2940 I have is the same as a product I see in the stores advertised as "2940U2W" or if what I have is different. I would also like to know if using the external SCSI port on the back is a better idea than running a cable from the inside using the internal cabling. Any help/advise would be most welcome.

I have a PC with triple boot partitions setup, one of which is loaded with Solaris 2.7 (officially called version 7). I am wondering if anyone has any experience directly mounting ufs partitions which Solaris created. It should be pretty straight forward to come up with a modified ufs source to read them (much like ext2fs), but of course figuring out where Solaris keeps the partition tables needed to get at the slices within the partition is apparently a military secret. Can anyone offer any advice on how to go about this? Thanks ... --David p.s. I am running 2.2.8 and am not expecting to upgrade that partition with 3.3 anytime soon. Because I am living on the same disk, NFS mounting is not an option for me - (sigh ...).

I've tried the stock FreeBSD 3.2, and today, the 4.0-19991208-CURRENT snapshot image, both without any luck. I've not found any good documentation on pccards and FreeBSD, but I've referenced the following sites: http://www.jp.freebsd.org/PAO http://www.freebsd-uk.eu.org/~scott/xe_drv/ [ I want to use a Xircom CreditCard 10/100 card ] The Xircom card apparently works with pccardd. I've checked the CIS dump of the card against the document http://www.freebsd-uk.eu.org/~scott/xe_drv/ CIS/CIS_004, and it matches exactly. However, whenever I insert the card or remove it, nothing happens (with the command "pccardc beep 1", I get no beeps when the card is inserted/ removed). The output from "ifconfig -a" fails to show the xe driver, and the ethernet link never becomes active (the light on the hub does not turn on). I'm really at a loss on how to continue with getting the pccard support to work. Any assistance or pointers to documentation would be greatly appreciated.

This is really a FAQ and should be in the FAQ. The VSZ column in ps (SIZE column in top) specifies the _virtual_ size of the process. This is _not_ the amount of memory that the process is actually using. rpc.rstatd allocates 256 Mbyte of memory, but only uses some small pieces of it. The rest does not take up any system resources, so there's no reason to be worried. FreeBSD (and many other operating systems) implement a memory allocation scheme called "memory overcommit". This means that a process can allocate as much memory as it wants, but it does not occupy any real memory (neither physical RAM nor swap), until the process actually uses the memory. It's not a bug, it's a feature! :) Regards Oliver -- Oliver Fromme, Leibnizstr. 18/61, 38678 Clausthal, Germany (Info: finger userinfo:olli@dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de) "In jedem Stück Kohle wartet ein Diamant auf seine Geburt" (Terry Pratchett) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Dec 12 8: 1:51 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from boco.fee.vutbr.cz (boco.fee.vutbr.cz [147.229.9.11]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 34D6514A2B for ; Sun, 12 Dec 1999 08:01:48 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from cejkar@dcse.fee.vutbr.cz) Received: from kazi.dcse.fee.vutbr.cz (kazi.dcse.fee.vutbr.cz [147.229.8.12]) by boco.fee.vutbr.cz (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id RAA94580 for ; Sun, 12 Dec 1999 17:01:46 +0100 (CET) Received: (from cejkar@localhost) by kazi.dcse.fee.vutbr.cz (8.9.3/8.9.3) id RAA94737 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Sun, 12 Dec 1999 17:01:45 +0100 (CET) Date: Sun, 12 Dec 1999 17:01:45 +0100 From: Cejka Rudolf To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: How should look lantern symbol?

You can only use two of the three connectors (ie: You can not form a "Y" pattern of devices.. it must be straight through. So if you use the external connector, you can only use the 50 pin OR the 68 pin internal connector) 2940U2W = "Ultra 2 Wide" This one handles all U2W (LVD) devices. This one has a whole MESS of connectors: * One 68 Pin for U2W (internal) * One 68 Pin for UW (internal) * One 50 Pin for SCSI 2 and below (internal) * One 68 Pin for U2W (external) * One 50 Pin for SCSI 2 and below (external) Supposedly to get that 50 pin external to exist you have to use and internal-to-external cabling kit. I am *NOT* sure how to 2940U2W works for which ports you can use in which configurations, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say that, once again, you can't put the devices in a "Y" pattern. As for running your internal cables to the outside, on the surface it seems to me a logistical problem - connectors for internal devices do not have the same mating parts as those for external connectors. Additionally, if you slap on an external device, you'll need to power it somehow. Externals usually come in an external housing, which require an external cable and & plug into the wall. My personal preference is to try to keep everything "inside the box" until: a) heat generated is too much, b) there's no more room, or c) the device I want doesn't fit well internally. I think that call is up to you. Oh... and internal cables are a HECK of a lot cheaper than external ones ;) Hope that all helps ya get moving... BTW - if the last thing you tacked on your email is a copy of your dmesg output, it seems that you have a lot of devices enabled in your kernel which you do NOT have installed. Have you built yourself a custom kernel yet? Regards, John >Hi ... > > I am looking into purchasing a second hard drive and as >well some kind of removable media.

I'll try my luck again and see if someone finds time to answer them. I am sure many people know answers for these questions. 1) Memory usage by programs C source : main () { while(1); } as you see, it does nothing, nor it uses any libraries. ust an empty look. As top says SIZE: 408K, RSS: 207K 207K for an empty look??? And why total size is 408? What's wrong? I am using 3.1 and compile with cc. 2) How do i lock file reliably w/o depending whether it is on local FS or NFS. flock does not work on NFS as i know, .lock locking made in a normal simple way does not work either. What wouold be the corrent and reliable way? 3) Code sharing When i am runnning 15 perl scripts i am sure that some part of code is shared among them, but top does not tell me which part is shared.

Apologies for the rather silly question - I'm not particularly new to FreeBSD, but this one has eluded me. Is it possible to: (these are and/or's) - Restrict the number of users that can FTP at one time, system wide? - Restrict the number of users on a particular FTP login (not nescessarily the same host)? If possible I would like to stick with the tools provided with freebsd, rather than look to a 3rd party solution. It may sound strange, but I very much like having my box pure freebsd distro :) Thanks in advance, Cliff Rowley To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Dec 12 9:22:41 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from laurasia.com.au (lauras.lnk.telstra.net [139.130.93.142]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D784914DA0 for ; Sun, 12 Dec 1999 09:22:36 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mike@laurasia.com.au) Received: (from mike@localhost) by laurasia.com.au (8.9.1a/8.9.1) id BAA26756 for questions@freebsd.org; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 01:22:33 +0800 (WST) From: Michael Kennett Message-Id: <199912121722.BAA26756@laurasia.com.au> Subject: Re: pccard with ThinkPad 365X In-Reply-To: <199912121633.AAA28323@laurasia.com.au> from Michael Kennett at "Dec 13, 99 00:33:31 am" To: questions@freebsd.org Date: Mon, 13 Dec 1999 01:22:33 +0800 (WST) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL32 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > OK, this is a real newbie question, but what is the difference between > cardbus and pccard?

You have to configure this in your window manager. I know that all of the ones listed above support this functionality. Note that while I personally use fvwm2 because I like to customize stuff a whole lot, if you are just beginning, WindowMaker or KDE might be easier to get started with because they have nice graphical configuration tools. > I'd like the source code for hangman, I didn't download the sources. > Hope I made myself clear. Thanks a lot. Merry Xmas, btw. Fire up /stand/sysinstall, go to Configure -> Distributions -> Src -> Games and you can download the source to everything in /usr/games. You can also use this method to install any other distributions should you find later on that you want them.

What version of FreeBSD are you using? If it is 3.0 or later, then you are using ELF libraries, which don't use a minor version number. In that case, you should have a file named libgif.so.5 instead of libgif.so.5.0. A bigger question is why you aren't using hte ports system to do this. The ports system goes ahead and handles all the issues like this. If you have the ports system installed, then installing giflib is this easy: # cd /usr/ports/graphics/giflib # make all install This will download the source, build it along with any dependencies it needs, and install it for you. It will also run ldconfig for you to make sure you can use the new library right away. If you don't have the ports system installed, you can install it either using cvsup(1) (see the Handbook) or from /stand/sysinstall -> Configure -> Distributions -> Ports -- John Baldwin -- http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ PGP Key: http://www.cslab.vt.edu/~jobaldwi/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Dec 12 9:55:59 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from server.baldwin.cx (jobaldwi.campus.vt.edu [198.82.67.146]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EF17C14E07 for ; Sun, 12 Dec 1999 09:55:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jhb@FreeBSD.org) Received: from john.baldwin.cx (john [10.0.0.2]) by server.baldwin.cx (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id MAA60106; Sun, 12 Dec 1999 12:55:32 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from jhb@FreeBSD.org) Message-Id: <199912121755.MAA60106@server.baldwin.cx> X-Mailer: XFMail 1.4.0 on FreeBSD X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MIME-Version: 1.0 In-Reply-To: <000901bf4485$07b67380$c800000a@jackson.br.cahn.net> Date: Sun, 12 Dec 1999 12:55:32 -0500 (EST) From: John Baldwin To: Jackson Donadel Subject: RE: last Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On 12-Dec-99 Jackson Donadel wrote: > When i analising the last results > > this 2 entries appear > > what mean crash in this case?(reboot?, shutdown?) > > root ttyv0 Sat Oct 9 18:26 - crash (02:55) > jackson ttyv1 Sat Oct 9 18:24 - crash (02:57) The machine was turned off or rebooted without using the halt, reboot, or shutdown commands. Thus, these users were never logged out. When the system came back up, it found that it thought that these two users were still logged in. In that case, it assumes that the machine crashed while they were logged in and adds those entries to indicate that. -- John Baldwin -- http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ PGP Key: http://www.cslab.vt.edu/~jobaldwi/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Dec 12 10:46:56 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from malkav.snowmoon.com (machine-126-237.cdcsd.k12.ny.us [208.20.126.237]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id F3C2A14EE2 for ; Sun, 12 Dec 1999 10:46:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jaime@malkav.snowmoon.com) Received: (qmail 54247 invoked from network); 12 Dec 1999 18:46:52 -0000 Received: from localhost (HELO localhost.snowmoon.com) (127.0.0.1) by localhost with SMTP; 12 Dec 1999 18:46:52 -0000 Date: Sun, 12 Dec 1999 13:46:51 -0500 (EST) From: Jaime Kikpole To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Merging 2 servers? 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 Before I ask my question, I need to provide a little background. I work as the network administrator for a public school district in New York. About a year ago I replaced the NT email server and the MacOS web server with a FreeBSD 3.0-Release system with qmail, Cyrus, apache, etc. Being a public school district, we're always short on tech budgets, so we bought a nice desktop computer (Compaq 5150, 128MB RAM, added a second HD and a second ethernet NIC) and managed to do this with only $1500. The staff have loved the increase in performance and stability. :) Recently, thanks to a grant, we added a server to acts as a file server (via the netatlk-asun port and, to a lesser extent, the samba port) and email server (via qmail, imap-uw, apache-php3, and twig) for the students. This server is still fairly new, but the students in the middle school (ages 11 to 14) seem to love their new email access. I switched from using Cyrus to imap-uw because it was much easier to administer, even though it had fewer features and (arguably) less stability. If you're still reading after all of that, I want to thank you. :) Here's the question. I would like to improve the "staff" server, i.e. the desktop computer with two IDE drives which is serving email and files to the staff. The new "student" server has shown me what a joy RAID and tape drives can be to performance and stability. Also, it would be nice to be able to do an upgrade only once and let everyone benefit. :) So what would you folks recommend? I've been considering replacing the staff's server with a modest computer with RAID and more RAM. But I know that NIS would simplify my user maintenance. I just don't know if its usable here. The newer server (i.e. the "student" server) has far more RAM and CPU power than it needs, but not enough disk space for the staff to be added to it. Specifically, it has 1152MB of RAM, an external 9.1GB SCSI HD for booting, an internal 4HD x 9.1GB RAID-5 array (total 27GB of usable space) for /home, and a Pentium-III 600MHz with an empty second slot. The students get 5MB to 15MB each, depending on what classes they take. The staff should really get about 100-150MB of disk space so that they can collect assignments from their students. Does anyone have any advise about NIS, NFS, keeping two servers but replacing one, adding RAID (and booting from it, preferably) to the older server, or any other possible improvement?

Take a look at: http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/install.html#AEN450 It looks like your system can't really handle FreeBSD. In a nutshell, you need 5MB of RAM to run the installer. If you only have 4MB, FreeBSD 3.0 might run, but I suspect it wouldn't really be worth the effort. I run FreeBSD 3.2 ona 486sx with 20MB of RAM. I had to upgrade it from its original 8MB of RAM when I realized that using apache on it made it resort to swapping into and out of virtual memory for just about any possible activity. Sorry for the bad news.

Are you trying to use the command when there isn't a tape in the drive? Are you using the correct type of tape? Does the wst driver actually handle the kind of tape drive that you have?

First of all, I operate a machine that frequently comes under heavy denial of service attacks, which often include SYN attacks. This often causes kernel panics and reboots with messages logged as '/kernel: Out of mbuf clusters - adjust NMBCLUSTERS or increase maxusers!'. I had maxusers at 256 at that point, and had 'options NMBCLUSTERS=2048' in the kernel as well -- it still failed. I'm hoping that increasing maxusers to 512, and bumping NMBCLUSTERS to 4096 is going to provide some help, but somehow I doubt it. (1MB/s of SYN packets coming in does not fare well, and the unplanned boots are wreaking havok on my filesystems). I don't know what mbuf clusters even are, so any light on the situation there could help too. As far as I've found, mbuf clusters are simply the 'backlog' created by sending syn packets? For open sockets and the like.. I've explored LINT, and come across these options: # TCP_DROP_SYNFIN adds support for ignoring TCP packets with SYN+FIN. This # prevents nmap et al. from identifying the TCP/IP stack, but breaks support # for RFC1644 extensions and is not recommended for web servers. # # TCP_RESTRICT_RST adds support for blocking the emission of TCP RST packets. # This is useful on systems which are exposed to SYN floods (e.g. IRC servers) # or any system which one does not want to be easily portscannable. # options TCP_DROP_SYNFIN #drop TCP packets with SYN+FIN options TCP_RESTRICT_RST #restrict emission of TCP RST I added the second to the last kernel that did fault, and omitted the first because we do run a webserver, and it just had that spooky sound with it that rm -rf / gives off :) I've also come across a patch posted to a mailing list for FreeBSD 3.1, for SYN_RATELIM'ing, sounds like this could also help. (http://www2.merton.ox.ac.uk/~security/archive-199905/0282.html) I'm at a complete loss for what to do here -- I'd like the reboots to stop. Any help you could give me at all would be appreciated, whacks with clue-by-fours aren't that bad either.

AFAIR the 2940 doesn't have that internal SCSI bridge (AIC3660 chip) that for example the Asus P2B-S motherboard has (you can build and use Y-a-like configurations, for example, when using a mixture of 8-bit-wide and 16-bit- wide connected SCSI devices (CD-ROM, hard disk, Tandberg SLR6) and LVD devices, and it run's fine. A collegue at work bought a 2930U2W about one or two weeks ago, this one as Fast-SCSI internal and external connectors and an internal U2W connector, nothing for UW. This configuration wasn't that much expensive and makes sense, as newer disks are mainly U2W and you have often one or the other Fast-SCSI device (CD-ROM, external Scanner, CD-R). And this adapter has that AIC3660 SCSI bridge which should make it possible to use Y configurations (devices on all three connectors), but we haven't used that yet. That adapter is based on an 7890 chipset, AFAIR. > room, or c) the device I want doesn't fit well internally. I think that > call is up to you.

I wasn't even thinking along the lines of a device that's too big to stuff in the box =) If I'm understanding what you're saying though, the AHA2930U2W and the AHA2940U2W now allow you to support devices off of all connectors, as opposed to needing to keep a linear configuration? Just want to make sure I'm understanding fully.

Basic things: - I can successfully mount and read from data CDs - My sound card is functioning as expected - cdcontrol -f /dev/acd0c works normally (in fact I'm listening right now :-) - kscd no longer dumps core! :-) - I've set the cd device properly in kscd - kscd will read the header info from the CD and generate a successful CDDB query - If I have started playing with cdcontrol, kscd will dutifully show remaining time, track number, volume percentage, etc.. However, whether a CD is playing or not, pressing ANY of the CD control buttons in kscd (including play/pause, stop, down track, up track, and time inc/dec), results in my CD being stopped, and "Ejected" being displayed in the kscd window. Anyone have similar problems? Suggestions?

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I am running FreeBSD 3.2 Release on a firewall machine using IPFW and NAT. There are two ethernet interfaces. The external interface is physically connected to our Internet router only. There are three IP addresses on the external interface that are aliased to three addresses on the internal interface. A few days ago I needed to turn off the external interface "ifconfig ed2 down" in order for our ISP to do some work on the router. Ever since I reactivated the interface with "ifconfig ed2 up" kernel log messages similar to the following example have been appearing in /var/log/messages file approximately every second.

I'm trying to find a console-mode CD player that pipe CD audio through a soundcard.

I'm using the OSS sound drivers, and they appear to be working...if I cat /dev/sndstat, I see: Kernel: FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT #1: Sat Dec 11 14:27:47 EST 1999 root@rod.darktech.org:/usr/src/sys/compile/BLUE Card config: Generic PnP support OPL-2/OPL-3 FM at 0x388 AD1816 SoundPort Controller at 0x3f0 irq 5 drq 1,0 MPU-401 (UART) at 0x300 irq 11 Audio devices: 0: Analog Devices AD1816A (AD181x) (DUPLEX) Synth devices: 0: Yamaha OPL-3 Midi devices: 0: Analog Devices AD1816A Timers: 0: System clock Mixers: 0: Analog Devices AD1816A (AD181x) so, does anyone know if there's a program that can redirect cd audio output? thanks Eric To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Dec 12 18:14:24 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from smtp2.cybersurf.net (smtp2.cybersurf.net [209.197.145.112]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3B2F714D8C for ; Sun, 12 Dec 1999 18:14:20 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from 01031149@3web.net) Received: from webserver ([209.197.159.85]) by smtp2.cybersurf.net (Netscape Messaging Server 4.05) with SMTP id FMNQBK00.II9 for ; Sun, 12 Dec 1999 19:16:32 -0700 Message-ID: <001301bf4518$640a6e00$559fc5d1@webserver> From: "Duke Normandin" <01031149@3web.net> To: "freebsd-questions" Subject: boot.conf Date: Sun, 12 Dec 1999 19:15:49 -0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3612.1700 X-MIMEOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3612.1700 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi...

Message-ID: <19991212201037.A6512@parodius.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0i X-Organization: Parodius Networking Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Greetings. I've recently come across what looks to be an annoying problem regarding when the modification (possibly access?) times on ttys are updated upon login. This could be entirely related to the service which is allocating the tty for use (telnet, ssh, etc.), but I happen to think it goes much deeper than that (login_tty(3), ttyname(3), isatty(3), ttyslot(3), etc.). ls shows the following timestamps (modification time) for each of the above ttys, PRIOR to the login period. crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 5, 3 Dec 12 01:11 /dev/ttyp3 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 5, 4 Dec 11 22:52 /dev/ttyp4 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 5, 5 Dec 10 14:12 /dev/ttyp5 In the below example, ttyp3/4/5 all have been logged in via sshd (ports; 1.2.27), and no commands have been typed to the shells in question: 7:58PM up 18:45, 6 users, load averages: 0.11, 0.10, 0.04 USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE WHAT yoshi p0 koitsu 5:24PM 3 -tcsh (tcsh) yoshi p1 koitsu 7:58PM 1 -tcsh (tcsh) yoshi p2 koitsu 7:57PM - w yoshi p3 koitsu 7:58PM 2days -tcsh (tcsh) yoshi p4 koitsu 7:58PM 21:05 -tcsh (tcsh) yoshi p5 koitsu 7:58PM 2days -tcsh (tcsh) The instant a command is typed/etc., the timestamps change appropriately. The above applies to all ttys, not just ttyp3/4/5. What confuses me even more is the fact that ttyp3 is labelled idle for 2 days when it should be stating something like 19 hours. Using FreeBSD 3.3-STABLE (with daily cvsup updates; kernel is labelled 3.4-RC).

I don't know if the AHA2940U2W has this chip on board, sorry, but the AHA2930U2W has it and so I would expect it to do that job as this bridge does it on the P2B-S motherboard. But to be true, I haven't read any ``genuine Adaptec documentation'' promising that neither have I tried it yet. But as my collegue said, it is possible to connect devices to each connector (50 pin internal, 68 pin LVD internal, external ``high density'' connector) and to use them parallel. I don't know about termination, in the P2B-S based box all individual three SCSI chains have proper termination at the one end and the rest is done by the motherboard. Neither I have checked the cable specifications - I don't know if each SCSI chain can be seen as one individual SCSI chain with specification depending on it's type or if there is something special. As that 2930U2W was a bulk one, there was no documentation with it.

It has an Intel network card that has a 192.168 IP address. It also has a modem attached to it, and I am running ppp with the -auto and -alias flags. Recently, I compiled IPFIREWALL etc into the kernel, and in the rc.conf I changed the firewall option to YES, and set it up as 'client'. The problem I have is this: When I dialup, I am automatically assigned an IP. The problem is that I can't dial. My machine just complains about being unable to reach the DNS servers. Why is this?? I've edited rc.firewall and put my 192.168 address in that file, but I'm not sure if that is correct. Can someone tell me why it isn't dialing etc etc? Any help would be appreciated.

That way I can have redhat 5.2 and redhat 6.0 on the same disk I.e. redhat 5.2 / = /dev/hda5 redhat 5.2 /usr = /dev/hda6 swap /dev/hda7 redhat 6.0 / = dev/hda8 redhat 6.0 /usr = /dev/hda9 There's something called "extended linux partitions", I've never used them. When I put 1 system several years in slice 1, and another system in slice 2, it installed but always booted the first slice. Also loadlin seemed "better" than the freebsd dos-based kernel loader... (supposedly I may be able to do this now in freebsd...I'll belive it when I see it). > On Sat, Dec 11, 1999 at 06:36:42PM -0500, Marty Leisner wrote: > > > > I've found linux to boot more flexibly because you can: > > have multiple distributions on one disk > > > > Do you mean on the same filesystem? > > -- > ------------------------------------------------------------ > Christopher Weimann SysAdmin 400 Higgins Ave > Wall Internet LLC.

The 2940U2W includes a AIC-3860 bridge chip. The bridge chip, as well as allowing you to run at Ultra2 and non-Ultra2 speeds on the same bus, also makes it possible for you to use all the connectors on the board at the same time. By isolating the two segments of the bus, the bridge chip essentially gives you two linear configurations on the same logical SCSI bus. Adaptec's technical specs: http://www.adaptec.com/products/datasheets/aha2940u2w.html provide a reasonable description of what the card can do.

System configuration looks like this: 2 IDE drives, Windows 98 on Primary IDE controller master; FreeBSD 3.3 on Secondary IDE master. Booteasy, through a course of installations is installed on both drives. Both disks have one primary partition, and both are initially set active/bootable. Disk 0 (IDE 1) is a 4 gig drive, and disk 1 (with FreeBSD installed) is a 1 gig drive. Both are set to LBA mode in the BIOS. The problem is that upon booting with booteasy, the active flag on the primary (and only) partition on the primary IDE controllor (the Windows 98 partition) is cleared, so that upon rebooting, either the BIOS or Booteasy (pretty sure it's Booteasy) complains that there is no active partition, and refuses to go any further. I was forced each time to boot with a Windows boot disk, run fdisk, set the partition active, and reboot. I should also mention that this Booteasy was installed using bootinst.exe and boot.bin from tools directory, but had the same effect when installed using the 3.3 release floppies. Also, Booteasy was unable to identify the Windows 98 partition as "DOS"; instead it said "F1 - ??". So now I wonder if this could be an issue caused by having Booteasy installed on both IDE controllers, or possibly having an active partition on both disks (although I've never had a problem with either of these before), or something really weird is going on. If anyone has any ideas about what could be going on here, or if there is some more information I can provide to clarify an issue, please let me know. I see from searching the mailing lists that this problem has surfaced several times with others in similar configurations, but it looks like the only solution has been to install a different boot manager.

NIS really is a handy tool for ease of administrating. I just wonder if, in your two server set-up, it isn't overkill. If you want to use NFS, make sure you move that 3.0-R box to something more 3.3-STABLE, or even 3.4-RC since there have been fixed quite some annoyances with NFS. But what is exactly the situation you are wanting to go to? Are you looking for a more centralised means of administration?

Why ? Why not 3.x? Because AccelX hasn't been very good at keeping FreeBSD users feeling happy/supported, see Brett Glass's recent posts about his run-in with a clueless Xig salesperson (the same thing happened to me). I've already bought Xig's server for two reasons, it is pretty darn good and I thought it was the only one out there (besideds XFree) It now seems that some other commercial X servers for FreeBSD are appearing (see: http://www.metrolink.com/) that and XFree's acceleration and stability has improved substantially.

I don't know, this is the FreeBSD Project's help mailing list, not the XFree86 help mailing lists, you may want to check over at http://www.xfree86.org for answers to that and other X server questions. All I can really say is the an X server is a complicated program that needs a lot of supporting code to do its job, hence the large footprint. 450 bright 2 0 42328K 40088K select 1 1:07 0.00% 0.00% Xaccel *shrug* good luck, -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 13 2: 1:31 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from axl.noc.iafrica.com (axl.noc.iafrica.com [196.31.1.175]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9AA8114CA3 for ; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 02:01:27 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from sheldonh@axl.noc.iafrica.com) Received: from sheldonh (helo=axl.noc.iafrica.com) by axl.noc.iafrica.com with local-esmtp (Exim 3.11 #1) id 11xSHt-0007Lw-00; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 12:01:01 +0200 From: Sheldon Hearn To: "Artem Koutchine" Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: questions about file locking and memory usage In-reply-to: Your message of "Sun, 12 Dec 1999 20:05:10 +0300." <000501bf44c3$15e05c80$0100a8c0@m1> Date: Mon, 13 Dec 1999 12:01:00 +0200 Message-ID: <28267.945079260@axl.noc.iafrica.com> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Sun, 12 Dec 1999 20:05:10 +0300, "Artem Koutchine" wrote: > 1) Memory usage by programs > > C source : > main () { > while(1); > } > > as you see, it does nothing, nor it uses any libraries. ust an > empty look.

I haven't heard of a free NFS client for windows, you're better off going with samba and using the native (and free) windows networking share system. Also, NFS doesn't allow one to share printers or allow the level of fine grained access control you're probably going to want to implement. > - Maybe I better solution that may not involve Freebsd.

Thankss. > Pick up a _recent_ book on samba, and make sure when you install samba it's from the ports/packages do _not_ try to compile it yourself, there's a nasty performance issue with the default way that samba compiles on FreeBSD, the port we have corrects it.

Now, for an answer... Yes, samba can solve your problems. FreeBSD combined with samba and a rigorous backup plan can be about the best file/print server you can get. Combine that with a strict data storage policy (everything must be saved to the server), and your network should be humming smoothly before you know it. You can even go so far as to turn samba into a PDC, allowing the workstations to believe they're part of a Windows Network (can save more headaches than it creates).

What advantages would there be to keeping the students on a separate server than the staff? I'm also wondering if it would be possible to make a less expensive configuration by merging the two servers into one. Specifically, if it might not be a better idea to move the staff to the newer server and just add a second big RAID-5 array for their home directories. (Complain this to moving all functions of the older "staff" server to a completely new server. I'm sure that the array would cost less than an array and a server, but would it be a wise decision in the long term.) Any suggestions?

One thought is that seperate machines help ensure teachers' privacy in case they mess up permissions tests won't get leaked before they're supposed to. Then again having them all on one machine helps because students and teachers could be put in class groups to allow them access to common areas. Perhaps keeping the split, but making sure that teachers have logins on the student machine would be the most flexible, you can probably use NIS to keep the passwords and account information sync'd for the teacher accounts. I think it's more what you want to do than anything, security or co-operation. A good reason for keeping both machines in working order is redundancy, if one day one of the machines fails you can just overload one of the machines until you can get replacement parts. good luck, -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 13 5:12:29 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from cx344940-a.meta1.la.home.com (cx344940-a.meta1.la.home.com [24.6.21.74]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 313AD14E43 for ; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 05:12:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from conrads@cx344940-a.meta1.la.home.com) Received: (from conrads@localhost) by cx344940-a.meta1.la.home.com (8.9.3/8.9.2) id HAA25165; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 07:12:18 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from conrads) Message-ID: X-Mailer: XFMail 1.4.0 on FreeBSD X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MIME-Version: 1.0 In-Reply-To: Date: Mon, 13 Dec 1999 07:12:17 -0600 (CST) Organization: @Home Network From: Conrad Sabatier To: Eric Ogren Subject: RE: question regarding cd player Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On 13-Dec-99 Eric Ogren wrote: > > I'm trying to find a console-mode CD player that pipe CD audio > through a soundcard. > My ATAPI CD-ROM drive doesn't have a line out on the drive > itself, which I assume mean the audio is supposed to redirected > through the sound card.

First of all, is your CD drive connected properly? Most drives have an audio output connector that connects to an input connector on your soundcard. Secondly, have you checked your mixer settings? It could be that your CD audio volume is set to zero by default. What do you see when you type "mixer"? None of the CD player apps does any particular "magic" as far as "redirecting audio" as you're asking about. They all depend on your having a properly configured hardware/driver/mixer setup. -- Conrad Sabatier http://members.home.net/conrads/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 13 5:20:48 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from cx344940-a.meta1.la.home.com (cx344940-a.meta1.la.home.com [24.6.21.74]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A1E6114C3C for ; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 05:20:37 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from conrads@cx344940-a.meta1.la.home.com) Received: (from conrads@localhost) by cx344940-a.meta1.la.home.com (8.9.3/8.9.2) id HAA25189; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 07:20:34 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from conrads) Message-ID: X-Mailer: XFMail 1.4.0 on FreeBSD X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MIME-Version: 1.0 In-Reply-To: <19991211230048.85174.qmail@hotmail.com> Date: Mon, 13 Dec 1999 07:20:33 -0600 (CST) Organization: @Home Network From: Conrad Sabatier To: Kub Vaj Subject: RE: Fwd: Re: Error mounting /dev/wcd0c on dist: Input/Output err Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Sounds like you're configuring for the wrong type of drive.

This was one of the reasons that I began to consider the merge.

Is it possible to use NIS to sync only part of the password database? Is it possible to use NIS to sync usernames, passwords, and home directories (which would be shared via NFS) and then change the shell depending on the server? Specifically, I'm thinking of using /usr/bin/false for their shells on one server and then adding a "programming server" which allowed them to use bash, zsh, tcsh, etc. so that they can test out programs without being able to crack at the server quite so easily. Thanks for the pointers so far!

Hi Rhys, It sounds like what you are talking about here is a host with multiple IP addresses. I don't fully recall the original discussion but I don't believe that was the case there. Certainly if you are using multiple addresses you have the possibility of making the initial routing decision based on source address. But this is not something I have any experience or knowledge of. Best bet for this sort of question is to post it to freebsd-questions (where I've cc-d this reply) or freebsd-net. -Mitch To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 13 7:10:19 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from team7.cba.ualr.edu (team7.cba.ualr.edu [144.167.120.24]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 65D9415212 for ; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 07:10:07 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from joe@team7.cba.ualr.edu) Received: from access45.mod1.ualr.edu (access45.mod1.ualr.edu [144.167.7.45]) by team7.cba.ualr.edu (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA04055; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 09:10:44 -0600 (CST) Date: Mon, 13 Dec 1999 09:10:13 -0600 (CST) From: Joe X-Sender: joe@njal.ualr.edu To: Stefan Parvu Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: top on 3.3 Rel In-Reply-To: <3.0.6.32.19991213094250.0092a980@miina.comptel.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Mon, 13 Dec 1999, Stefan Parvu wrote: > Hi, > > I have a question regarding top.

Ps and top report the amount of memory being used by the number of pages mapped to your process. Because the Banshee has 16MB of framebuffer and 32MB of control registers the process size will be at least 48MB. Of course, this is using almost no RAM in your system since it is real memory or registers on the board. I believe this is what is happening with the Voodoo3 as well. -Joe To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 13 7:21: 1 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from rhubarb.fwi.com (rhubarb.fwi.com [209.84.175.126]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DB1E115374 for ; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 07:20:52 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from peeter@rhubarb.fwi.com) Received: from rhubarb.fwi.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by rhubarb.fwi.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id KAA18170; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 10:23:06 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from peeter@rhubarb.fwi.com) Message-ID: <38550F5A.41C67EA6@rhubarb.fwi.com> Date: Mon, 13 Dec 1999 10:23:06 -0500 From: Peeter Pirn X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.04 (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Ryan Troy Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: after installing qmail References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Read the qmail docs.

Using partition magic - boot manager I started the boot sequence for 3.3.2. If I waited for the twirling baton to appear before hitting a key (other than the [Enter] ) I received a prompt ( i.e., disk3s2a> ) . Nothing I tried from the above prompt succeeded in booting 2.2.8.

"kernel.save" just happens to be the name of the kernel. Lo and behold ! 2.2.8 booted. I am left with the following problems: 1) I can not find a clear statement of the procedure for booting from an alternate slice. 2) I can not find a clear statement of the definition of the parameters that should be supplied to the boot: prompt. 3) After booting 2.2.8 I had only limited access to the 3.3.2 slice .

My slave server started reporting the problem: ypbind[129]: NIS server at XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX not in restricted mode access list -- rejecting. Where the IP address is itself (not localhost). So ypbind on the slave is connecting to my master server, and ypserv on the slave is running (as is rpc.ypxfrd). But if I read this correctly, the slave is rejecting its own IP address as if it does not have the proper permissions? /var/yp/securenets has entries for my network, appropriate netmask and localhost, and /var/yp/ypservers has my master listed first and my slave (itself) listed second. There are entries in /etc/hosts for both slave and master. Any ideas?

My machine is successfully booting and detecting my 3C589D network card through pccardd. However, I also have an Options International 56k modem card which I'm trying to get running. I haven't been able to figure out where pccardd takes its modem information from (not /etc/modems), and currently, when I insert or remove the network card, things work fine. However, when I insert the modem card in addition to the network card, I get the following messages: >Card inserted, slot 0 >Dec 13 16:25:52 rastafari pccardd[56]: Card "Option International "(" > GSM-Ready >56K & GSM PC Card modem") [021] [A] has function ID 2 >card0: assign sio3 iobase 0x2f8 irq 7 flags 0x80 >sio3: Warning: IIR status error. >Return IRQ=7 At which point the machine freezes, and I have to remove the battery to get it to reboot. I'm already having trouble with the thing accepting any more than 32MB of memory (already tried MAXMEM= option in my kernel config), and am wondering whether the two are related, since in both cases it's an extreme pain to even reset the machine. Inserting the modem card by itself gives me: >card1: assign sio3 iobase 0x2f8 irq 3 flags 0x80 >Return IRQ=3 >Slot 1, unfielded interrupt (0) >Dec 13 16:38:02 rastafari /kernel: card1: assign sio3 iobase 0x2f8 irq 3 > flags 0 >Dec 13 16:38:02 rastafari pccardd[56]: driver allocation failed for (Device > not configured) I can subsequently successfully insert the network card. Note that the above order will always apply, regardless of which card I insert in which pcmcia slot. If I then remove and re-insert the modem, I get >Dec 13 16:44:09 rastafari pccardd[56] No free configuration for card Option > International But the machine will not crash.

So let's try this list.. How can I manipulate -easily- which base system files (in e.g. /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin) will be installed/compiled when I cvsup the sources and make world ? The problem is, according to /var/log/setuid.today, I have ~70 files (some of them just symbolic links though) which are setuid root (95% of them from base system). Talk about security! I'd like to remove the ones I don't need and never hear of them again (like ppp*, r*, yp*). Also, having stuff like this along just takes some HDD space too. I couldn't care less of having e.g. some games in my system. So, are there any utilities to keep track which base programs/sources are installed and which are not - and how to keep them that way so that upgrading the sources, 'make world', etc. won't mess those up? Btw, regarding setuid.today.. are there any good "master" references which files in the base system really need to be +s ? I can't believe all ~70 of them have to be...

You need to edit the /etc/login.conf to allow that. 2)If you are copying a whloe directory from one location to another on the same host then use the mv command. Do man mv for details. If you are copying it from host to another then use rcp. Do man rcp for details. If you want to FTP a whole directory then as suggested you can tar it up then FTP or use mput command.

Logging in as root anywhere except via the console is disabled for reasons of security. Removing external root access (except, of course, via su) means that in order for a user to get any kind of privellaged access, they must already be logged into the system.

I've heard pros and cons to the age of BSD OSes. On the plus, side, they are mature and stable, and have picked up many new and valuable features. On the con side, is it possible we will eventually reach a wall where the limits of the kernel require a major overhaul, or that it will become impractical to keep BSD up to date? AS hardware and filesystems, even GUI's and the Net evolve, is BSD flexible enough to keep pace? I've heard people complain about certain aspects of Unix, yet many have been addressed with add-on features, such as Andrews FS, Sun's NFS, virtual memory, support for SMP, etc. Is there a practical limit? For example, Intel and Windows held on to old standards for backwards compatibility, but eventually they will need to scrap it all and go back to the drawing board to be able to take advantage of new innovations. -jm To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 13 11:15:14 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mailhost.kisters.de (ns.kisters.de [193.23.163.69]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 78969151A1 for ; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 11:14:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from cfra@kisters.de) Received: from NOTES (NOTES [192.168.52.13]) by mailhost.kisters.de (NTMail 3.02.13) with ESMTP id ra181237 for ; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 20:13:45 +0000 Received: by kisters-ac1.kisters.de(Lotus SMTP MTA v4.6.4 (830.2 3-23-1999)) id C1256846.0069E9A1 ; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 20:16:50 +0100 X-Lotus-FromDomain: KISTERS From: "Christoph Franzen" To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Cc: Christoph_Franzen@outpost.fido.de (Christoph Franzen) Message-ID: Date: Mon, 13 Dec 1999 20:16:45 +0100 Subject: FreeBSD on Jensen Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I'd like to install FreeBSD on a "Jensen" (DECpc AXP 150 / DEC 2000; EISA only; EV4 21064 150 MHz) system and before downloading, I'd like to know whether there's a chance of getting it to run.

I've just (literally, in the last hour) added a printer (Epson Stylus 820) to my system. You've done exactly the same as me. lpt0 was commented out in my config file for some reason so I just uncommented it, re-built the kernel and bingo! printing works.

It seems to run fine with only one processor, but when I try to bring it up with a SMP kernel I get periodic crashes that seem to be attributed to processor 1 (more detail below). It seems to be only MP1.1 compliant, I can't find any settings in the BIOS for MP1.4. BTW: I'm using FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE. The SMP kernel tends to stay up for 6-15 hours between crashes, and I've not been able to come up with any repeatable conditions to cause it. I run this machine predominantly as a web server (less than 5000 hits/day), with a number of associated scripts (all in perl). On crashing, I get messages on the screen, but not in the log files... I've tried a number of builds and options. When compiled with the NO_F00F_HACK flag in a SMP kernel, the system will generally reboot itself after crashing, but otherwise it behaves no better. Unfortunately I'm out of ideas to try and beyond my limited knowledge, so I'm hoping someone can help me. One other strange thing is the output from mptable. I do not get any output regarding "MP Config Base Table Entries". Is that normal for a system like this? Anyone able to help me on this? Am I simply going to have to let that second processor sit limp and lifeless? Any info or help greatly appreciated! Some details on crashes: below is some of the output on the screen from one crash that seems relevant (this is from a kernel without the NO_F00F_HACK option): CPU reset called on CPU#1 CPU reset: Stopping other CPUs panic: apic_ipi was stuck mp_lock=0.000002; cpuid=1 lapic.id=01000000 instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc0194838 stack pointer = 0x10: 0xc370a680 frame pointer = 0x10: 0xc370a6c8 code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b DPL 0, pres=1, def32 1, gran 1 processor eflags = interupt enabled, IOPL=0 current process = 7802 (perl) interupt mask = net tty boi cam <-SMP.XXX trap number = 29 panic: unknown/reserved trap mp_lock = 01000002; cpuid=1 lapic.id=01000000 boot() called on CPU# 1 Automatic reboot in 15 seconds Rebooting... cpu_reset called on CPU#1 cpu_reset: stopping other CPUs cpu_reset: Restarting BSP cpu_reset_proxy: Grabbed mp lock for BSP mptable output (while using my "semistable" SMP kernel): mptable -dmesg -verbose ============================================================================ === MPTable, version 2.0.15 looking for EBDA pointer @ 0x040e, found, searching EBDA @ 0x0009fc00 MP FPS found in Extended BIOS Data Area @ physical addr: 0x0009fc30 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- MP Floating Pointer Structure: location: EBDA physical address: 0x0009fc30 signature: '_MP_' length: 16 bytes version: 1.1 checksum: 0x9d mode: Virtual Wire ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- MP default config type: 6 bus: EISA+PCI, APIC: Integrated ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- # SMP kernel config file options: # Required: options SMP # Symmetric MultiProcessor Kernel options APIC_IO # Symmetric (APIC) I/O # Optional (built-in defaults will work in most cases): #options NCPU=2 # number of CPUs #options NBUS=2 # number of busses #options NAPIC=1 # number of IO APICs #options NINTR=24 # number of INTs ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- dmesg output: Copyright (c) 1992-1999 FreeBSD Inc.

I just tried to compile a 3rd party module as a DSO, and it seemed to work, but when apache tries to initialize the module, I get an error message: Syntax error on line 238 of /usr/local/etc/apache/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/local/libexec/apache/mod_auth_pgsql.so into server: /usr/local/libexec/apache/mod_auth_pgsql.so: Undefined symbol "PQexec" The module is mod_auth_pgsql 0.9.0, and it does support DSO. The symbol that the server cannot locate is in an external shared lib - libpg.so. I have tried various command line incantations while compiling the module as well as ensuring the loaders library cache contains the dir that the library is in (/usr/local/pgsql/lib). Reading the apache documentation on the DSO mechanism it suggests that there may be problems with this on non ELF architectures (which this is obviously not). Could someone help shed some light on this? For the meantime I will use static modules, but would *really* like to use DSO. As an FYI, I am using the apache13 port on FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE. Thanks!

On Mon, 13 Dec 1999, Daniel Schrock wrote: > I apologize as this has nothing to do with your problem, but is more of a > question of how to get the CD-rom to mount. > > here is part of dmesg that I get: > > . > . > wdc1 at 0x378 irq 7 flags 0x40 on isa > wdc1: unit 0 (atapi): , removable, dma, iordy > . > . > acd0: read_toc failed > acd0: read_toc failed Please include your FULL dmesg output; in particular, you haven't included any output from the acd detection phase .... So I'm left to wonder if you simply omitted it from your message, or if it didn't come up at all (suggesting that support was disabled or acd0 wasn't detected (in which case you should have seen an acd0: not found.. type of message)). Also, see below Re: [ (1) Information ] > I removed mcd, scd, and matcd from the kernel, as the cd-rom is not any of > those types, Make sure that you did NOT remove acd. :-) As you are, by self-admission, a newbie, I'm assuming you did NOT build a new kernel, but merely went through the visual config at bootup, right? If you DID build a new kernel, you might give GENERIC another go and see if you can mount then. (If you're not familiar with what I mean by 'building a kernel', suffice to say it's something you should read in the FreeBSD handbook when you're more familiar with the system). > and I've tried: > ./MAKEDEV wcd0 Also, if you haven't done so, make sure you sh MAKEDEV acd0. See below. > since it is a standard IDE (ATAPI) cd-rom > using (as root): > mount_cd9660 /dev/wcd0c /cdrom > and > mount_cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom Hmm... Are you sure it's on /dev/acd0c, and not acd0a? Couldn't hurt to verify that. Also, one common snag people run in to is using incorrect jumper settings or cable positions when trying to fire up their CD-ROM drives. If the drive is alone on an IDE channel, put it at the end of the IDE cable, and jumper the CD for "single drive" mode (often, this means removing the jumper completely, or hanging it across unconnected pin pairs). Leaving it set to "master" is incorrect 9 times out of 10. If the drive is sharing an IDE channel with another device such as a hard drive, ensure that the CD drive is set to slave and is on the "middle" cable position. Also, make sure you've got your pin orientations straight, and everything is well seated. :-) This may or may not fit your problem, and for you might go without saying, but many people become careless when installing or configuring new drives. And, as yet another common fallacy, just because Windoze reads from a CD-ROM doesn't mean it's set up correctly :-) > both give me : > acd0: read_toc failed > acd0: read_toc failed I think I first saw these "read_toc failed" messages in 3.0-R. While they're bothersome, and can be turned off in syslogd, they have never appeared to have an adverse effect on my systems. > mount_cd9660: Input/output error > > ls -l in /dev gives me: > lrwxrwxr-x 1 root wheel 5 Dec 6 09:45 wcd0a -> acd0a > lrwxrwxr-x 1 root wheel 5 Dec 6 09:45 wcd0c -> acd0c Right. Again, please include more complete information. Those are just symlinks to actual devices, so you haven't really shown me anything there :-) Send me the result of `ls -la /dev/wcd* /dev/acd*`. As an aside, you should probably be using mount -t cd9660 as opposed to mount_cd9660. I also suggest you use the acd* entries as opposed to the wdc*. The wdc's are just symlinks to the acd's, anyway. > The discs I'm trying to read are the FreeBSD discs, which are brand new, > delivered a few weeks ago. > The drive is a Wearnes Peripheral International 32x cd-rom (model # > CDS-32x) > capable of reading all the standard formats (cd-r, cd-rw, audio, etc.) Never heard of it, but if it's ATAPI, it should work.

That's a good sign, then. I'd check your /dev tree more carefully and try `sh MAKEDEV acd0`. > Do you see anything wrong with this?

In your case, I (and many others) could be of a lot more help if you included more complete information regarding your problem. In particular: - Full `dmesg` output: - Unless I missed it, you didn't mention which FreeBSD release or source build you're running. I assume, if you got new CDs, you're using 3.3-RELEASE. Correct me if I'm wrong. - There was no indication of the kernel reporting on 'acd' devices. Two possibilites: a) You simply omitted them from your message b) You omitted them from your kernel configuration. (That would be a Bad Thing :-) - Full `ls -la /dev/acd* /dev/wdc*` results - Can you play or stat an audio CD with cdcontrol -f /dev/acd0a or /dev/acd0c? Even if you don't have a sound card, you can still get your CD spinning and report the number of tracks, if you've got the device node set up correctly. Even if you're not a music buff, you have to appreciate the diagnostic significance of cdcontrol :-) - Try some different CDs. The FreeBSD ones should work OK, but I bet you'd be mighty peeved if you spent days sweating over a problem caused by a goofed disc :-) If you've got any DOS data CDs laying around, those are generally a good bet. Just don't try and install anything off of them, ok? :-) --- Ryan Thompson 50% Owner, Technical and Accounts Phone: +1 (306) 664-1161 SaskNow Technologies http://www.sasknow.com #106-380 3120 8th St E Saskatoon, SK S7H 0W2 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 13 14:52:34 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from camxch01.veritas.com (camxch01.cam.veritas.com [166.98.49.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9801314D27; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 14:52:07 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from quan.guo@veritas.com) Received: by CAMXCH01 with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0) id ; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 17:50:56 -0500 Message-ID: From: Quan Guo To: "'freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org'" Cc: "'freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.org'" Subject: FW: popen in RPC svc code Date: Mon, 13 Dec 1999 17:50:56 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0) Content-Type: text/plain Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi there, > I wrote a standard popen program inside rpc svc interface code . > The fgets could not get anything it should get. > Do you know what kind of problem I am facing? > Thank very much for your time. > > -Quan > Software Engineer > Veritas Software To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 13 14:55: 9 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.europe.de (mail.nce.de [212.114.175.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A8D9D14C42 for ; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 14:55:05 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from Andi@europe.de) Received: from europe.de (dialup248.nefonline.de [212.114.145.248]) by mail.europe.de (Post.Office MTA v3.1.2 release (PO205-101c) ID# LEGENDS-1997LS) with ESMTP id AAA447 for ; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 23:54:58 +0100 Message-ID: <385588F3.B0E061CD@europe.de> Date: Tue, 14 Dec 1999 00:01:55 +0000 From: Andreas Richter X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.08 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.3-STABLE i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: How can i submit a package?

This time, however, I think I have more of an idea what is going on. I get the following error when it comes to linking object files produced by f77, slamshk.o(.data+0x0): multiple definition of `rshock_' slaminz.o(.data+0x1e8): first defined here *** Error code 1 Stop. If I do f2c conversions and examine the C code, see that slamshk.c has the following, struct { integer fill_1[1]; real e_2; integer fill_3[158]; } rshock_ = { {0}, (float)8.314e7 }; And slaminz.c has, struct { integer fill_1[44]; real e_2[2]; integer fill_3[19]; real e_4[19]; integer fill_5[76]; } rshock_ = { {0}, (float)4., (float)1., {0}, (float)0., (float).1, ( float).2, (float).3, (float).4, (float).5, (float).6, (float).7, ( float).8, (float).9, (float)1., (float)1.25, (float)1.5, (float) 1.75, (float)2., (float)3., (float)4., (float)5., (float)6. }; Both contain the following code before these declarations, struct rshock_1_ { real }; #define rshock_1 (*(struct rshock_1_ *) &rshock_) I understand why the linker is choking on this. Both of these declarations for rshock_ have global scope. In FORTRAN, RSHOCK is a common block in a file, slamshk.cmn, COMMON/RSHOCK/ And it appears in both slamshk.f and slaminz.f via, INCLUDE 'slamshk.cmn' Lines. It seems the original authors of this FORTRAN code definately did not write it with f2c in mind. However, I assume f2c is meant to handle common blocks. How do I rearrange the code and the f77 commands to get f77 to understand how to handle common blocks as common among several files/routines? Is there an online tutorial somewhere about how to write or modify FORTRAN code to get f77/f2c to handle it correctly? Offhand I would think f77 should have to understand how to treat common blocks something like C extern's. Thanks for any help. -- Crist J.

I'm in the habit of using disks that go back a decade or so for boot disks, and I've been caught with funny errors more than once with a bad floppy. Your kernel is hanging when trying to set the root device; either it's running out of memory, or the root FS on the floppy is corrupt. Remember the boot disk has a compressed filesystem that is mounted as mfs by the installer. GENERIC in 2.2.8 is probably ~1.8MB, add the filesystem, overhead, and application space and you'll chew up memory pretty quickly. And, yes, the kernel isn't reporting the correct memory size. This isn't ALWAYS a problem, but you may need to build a new kernel with a defined maxmem size (see LINT for this, it's been a long time since I've had to do it) and make yourself a new boot floppy. (Provided you have access to another 2.2.8 system somewhere; if not, maybe somebody on this list would be willing to make you an image). I DO recommend increasing the amount of memory at some point, though, if at all possible.

I used cpio to copy all the files in across, and in the process my root partition is now partition 'e'. Everything works fine, except for booting: F1 . . . FreeBSD Default: F? Invalid partition Invalid partition No /boot/loader >>FreeBSD/i386 BOOT Default: 0:wd(0,a)/kernel boot: At this point I need to type 'wd(0,e)' to get it to boot. Since this is a headless box this is a rather large inconvenience! I understand I need to change a setting somewhere, recompile the boot loader and reinstall it, but all the boot related documentation I come across I find very confusing. A step by step guide which showed what each stage loader actually *looked* like would be nice so I knew where I was up to, but enough moaning :-) Can anyone give me a pointer in the right direction? Alternatively I would be perfectly happy if there was a way to setup a boot floppy to do this, that I could just leave sitting in the drive. The disk is totally dedicated to FreeBSD.

I have received several failures when FreeBSD attempted to probe the device aha, and it gave me several failures. I currently have a Jaz drive connected to the SCSI port externally.

Thus, it cannot ARP for the machines below since it believes it has no layer 2 link to them, only an IP connection. (The entry 161.74.69/24 _should_ be 'link#1' analogous to the 161.74.70.16/28 entry below.) Question: Why are you running routed(8)? If you have a default gateway that never changes, the static 'default' entry above, I don't see what routed will do for you. I think turning off routed would fix your problem, but there may be some non-obvious reason you are using it. > 161.74.69.1 0:80:3e:5d:7f:e6 UHLW 64 0 xl0 1043 > 161.74.69.63 0:0:c0:b7:df:a1 UHLW 5 2677 xl0 291 > 161.74.69.77 0:10:4b:46:80:9c UHLW 15 64486 lo0 > 161.74.70.16/28 link#2 UC 0 0 xl1 > 161.74.70.29 8:0:20:72:48:fc UHLW 2 19082 xl1 234 > 161.74.70.30 0:10:4b:46:81:1a UHLW 0 1 lo0 > 161.74.70.31 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff UHLWb 0 1 xl1 > > Dec 13 10:05:13 seth /kernel: arplookup 161.74.69.75 failed: host is not > on local network > Dec 13 10:14:01 seth /kernel: arplookup 161.74.69.78 failed: host is not > on local network > Dec 13 10:15:34 seth /kernel: arplookup 161.74.69.74 failed: host is not > on local network > Dec 13 10:17:59 seth /kernel: arplookup 161.74.69.70 failed: host is not > on local network -- Crist J.

Before you even consider NIS or NFS, I think you need to think about your security model. I would guess every student in the building does not physically use these machines, but rather there is some LAN the teachers and students connect too? With NIS/NFS, if one host on the network is comprimised... Game over. Or if some bright pre-teen brings in a laptop and plugs it in to the LAN, they gotcha. Want students to be able to read each others' mail or *gasp* the teachers' mail and files?

It has to stand a pretty good load, the current uptime is 53 days. It is only shut down to plug in another disk or to upgrade the OS. (It is a Pentium-II-450, 512 Mbyte RAM (ECC), 30 Gbyte HD space.) I have to confess that, in the beginning, we had stability problems, but that was because the machine ran out of MBUFs. Watching "netstat -m" and increasing NMBCLUSTERS fixed the problem, and the box is running happily ever since. And it is bloody fast, thanks to soft-updates.

Yes. +@admins:::::: +:NoLogin::::: Those two entries from a server I admin allow all of the information for administrators, but changes the encrypted password of everyone else to 'NoLogin', effectively blocking logins. I couldn't change the shell because sendmail runs on this server and needs valid shells to be able to run procmail in .forward's. > Thanks for the pointers so far! > > Jaime Good luck. -- John Baldwin -- http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ PGP Key: http://www.cslab.vt.edu/~jobaldwi/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 13 18:56:45 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.alpha.net.au (mail2.alpha.net.au [203.41.44.8]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3660014A0A for ; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 18:56:33 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dannyh@idx.com.au) Received: from psych ([203.41.44.161]) by mail.alpha.net.au (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id NAA22070; Tue, 14 Dec 1999 13:56:30 +1100 Message-Id: <3.0.32.19991214135718.006fe000@idx.com.au> X-Sender: dannyh@idx.com.au X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0 (32) Date: Tue, 14 Dec 1999 13:57:25 +1100 To: Jeremy Chadwick , Alfred Perlstein From: Danny Subject: Re: LAN Questions.

". Fortunately, I found a patch in the kde mailing list bugs archive from about six weeks ago. :-) I just sucessfully applied this patch to sources in the kdemultimedia11 port (1.1.2) in 3.4-RC, cvsup'ed yesterday. I can now play ATAPI CDs without a problem. I found the file in question on my -CURRENT system at: /usr/ports/audio/kdemultimedia11/work/kdemultimedia-1.1.2/kscd/plat_freebsd.c (after making the sign of the cross at the hellish pathname :-). I applied the changes and made all install in ../ I then ran kscd again, and was happy to have a working CD player. The current canned URL to the message in question is as follows: http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-bugs-dist&m=94079002018427&w=2 For the benefit of those who may read this after lists.kde.org breaks the above link, the message is included below. I'll also forward this to the maintainer of kdemultimedia, if there's an email address available. Message is below. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ List: kde-bugs-dist Subject: Bug#2197: Kscd/FreeBSD problems From: Simon Marlow Date: 1999-10-24 18:24:53 Kscd failed to do anything reasonable on my FreeBSD system w/ an ATAPI cdrom drive. The patches below fix the immediate problems such that I can now play CDs, but things still aren't perfect. Also, I have no idea how these patches will affect SCSI cdrom support. - kscd segfaults if it can't find or open the CD device (no patch for this one) - play didn't work at all (patch to gen_play below - it seems that the initial CDIOCSTART is bogus, at least on ATAPI cdroms). - pressing stop leaves kscd locked up. (patch below - it seems that the ATAPI cdrom returns CD_AS_PLAY_COMPLETED after a CDIOCSTOP ioctl, which caused kscd to hang waiting for the next track). - kscd doesn't cope with errors on the CD medium very gracefully, notably it claims the CD is ejected and won't do anything until the CD is forcibly ejected and re-inserted (no patch for this one).

Until recently, they were almost entirely MacOS 7.5.3 through 8.1. We just bought a large number of the newest iMac models, though, and those run MacOS 9.0. I'm using the netatlk-asun port for file serving purposes and MacAdmin as the security on the Macs in two buildings and I'm in the process of moving from At Ease to Mac Manager in the other two. (MacAdmin uses the file sharing from NetATalk as an authentication protocol. At Ease and Mac Manager aren't quite as good at integration, unfortunately.) Printers all handle themselves. They're all either serial printers or networked with built-in print servers. Students and staff can read their email through Apache+PHP served web-mail. They're allowed to reach their files via FTP and given a ~/public_html directory for their own intranet space. (We have wierd policies about posting things publicly.) They can also use the AppleShare over IP features in the netatlk-asun port. I'm looking into adding Samba (for the obvious reasons) to the server, too. I just haven't gotten arround to it because of a few sudden break-downs in our network. Most of the access to the server comes in the form of one of those file-sharing protocols (if you can count FTP as file sharing) or via Apache. Did I leave out anything that might help you figure out what I've gotten myself into? :) Thanks again for the advise. Its not always earth shattering, but it has been turning up little bits of important info along the way.

I really think you should stick with what you know for business tasks, if you haven't done much more than install FreeBSD once or twice and you've been running X for 2 years doing all kinds of spiffy network thingies with it, then go with X. Where X is one of the alternatives you've listed. If you don't know any of the alternate OS's then you may enjoy trying FreeBSD. You may gain a fraction of performance by choosing any of these OS's (FreeBSD included) but it doesn't help if you don't know what to do when strange things pop up or a special setup is required. good luck, -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 13 19:56:22 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from linux.ssc.nsu.ru (linux.ssc.nsu.ru [193.124.209.130]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id EB10D154DF for ; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 19:56:13 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from danfe@inet.ssc.nsu.ru) Received: (qmail 23275 invoked from network); 14 Dec 1999 03:56:04 -0000 Received: from inet.ssc.nsu.ru (62.76.110.12) by hub.freebsd.org with SMTP; 14 Dec 1999 03:56:04 -0000 Received: from localhost (danfe@localhost) by inet.ssc.nsu.ru (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id JAA05170 for ; Tue, 14 Dec 1999 09:55:55 +0600 Date: Tue, 14 Dec 1999 09:55:55 +0600 (NOVT) From: "Alexey N.

I just have a few ?s to make thing clearer: 1). Does it make sense to CVSup -RELEASE sources? And, is -RELEASE brance just a -STABLE + packages compiled from ports that were latest to the day of release? If so, would CVSuping -RELEASE act like CVSuping -STABLE? I restate this: If I CVSup my 3.3-RELEASE, will I get latest -STABLE (3.x branch)? Or I have to stick with -STABLE from the very beginning to be able to update system sources? 2). There've been a message ported several days ago, when someone was saying that generally performance of -RELEASE tends to be greater than that of -STABLE. Anyone has comments on this?

Well, we all know NFS _really_ stands for No F***ing Security, right? Information is transfered unencrypted and authetication is by IP address alone. Anyone who can sniff the LAN and spoof IP packets can have their way with you. So... anyone with a laptop that can plug into the LAN can sniff the tracffic and see who is talking. From there, spoof one of the machines that you overheard and the rest is history. As for NIS? Well, information is transfered unencrypted and authentication is by IP address alone. Yada-yada... you know the rest. -- Crist J.

Putting two (or more) NICs from one host on one segment is wrong, wrong! WRONG! *whew* Sorry about that. Glad you asked before you sent the classic post wondering why one NIC complains when it hears ARPs that the other NIC is supposed to be receiving. ifconfig(8) cares not if the addresses are on the same class C. In fact, to me, it is stranger that it works fine with multiple aliases where some aliases lie within the LAN of another. -- Crist J.

Move the network card to a different IRQ and everything seems to go fine. Also, I always use /dev/cue? to talk to the modems ie. cu -l /dev/cue0 -s 57600 - dont know if this is right, it is just what I've always done.

You can easily have cvsup move you to -stable, just make sure you specify tag=RELENG_3 for it, there shouldn't be a problem with going from a release to a -stable. > 2). There've been a message ported several days ago, when someone > was saying that generally performance of -RELEASE tends to be greater than > that of -STABLE. Anyone has comments on this? Besideds wanting to know what he was smoking, probably not. Actually to be fair, let me clarify: There's an occasional -stable snafu, but -stable is just that 'stable' we strive to keep it as reliable as possible and don't bungle around changing major infrastructures. Things going into -stable will generally be things like a device driver, or NFS fixes, but not something like a rewrite of the TCP stack. The only time you'll see a patch posted for a -release is when a security issue comes up that must be addressed. And you should realize that it won't be applied to -release, once a release is a release there is nothing done to it from that point on, only -stable gets bugfixes applied to the source. There's no point of 'tracking' a -release as it simply doesn't go anywhere. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 13 21:28:44 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com (cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com [24.2.89.207]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D3C8814C87 for ; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 21:28:39 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from cjc@cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com) Received: (from cjc@localhost) by cc942873-a.ewndsr1.nj.home.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id AAA76033; Tue, 14 Dec 1999 00:32:59 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from cjc) From: "Crist J.

Seems to be some confusion here. Might just be from the mail, but I can't say for sure.

Messages formatted as yours were are very difficult to read with some clients. I'm glad to hear you're going to give FreeBSD a try. I must STRONGLY advise against doing a diskette based install, unless you have a VERY good reason to do so. Frankly, I'm not sure that know exactly how much work you'd be in for. :-) If you're going to download the release via FTP anyway, why not install over FTP? I have installed virtually every copy of FreeBSD in this manner, and recommend it. Even if you are stuck with a dialup connection, it's still a possibility. (I did a full install of 2.2.x with X over a 33.6k modem some time ago, as I recall...) If you *are* working on a slow connection, you can always just install the /bin, /docs, and /man distribution to get you going, and add distributions once your system is working. If you're on a dedicated high speed connection such as a DSL line (cable modem), the transfer time shouldn't be much of a concern. I can install, configure and boot a new system with X and full sources from scratch over a cable modem connection in about an hour. I can do the same over the T1 in... About An Hour(TM). And, with a cleverly modified boot disk, I can be doing my email over the net, to boot, while the distributions are being installed... But that's a lesson for another thread/day :-) If you're wanting to "try out" FreeBSD, go with 3.3-RELEASE or 3.3-STABLE (which is now 3.4-RC). Follow the instructions in INSTALL.TXT. Some handy servers: ftp.freebsd.org - Current 3.3-RELEASE binaries and boot floppies releng3.freebsd.org - If you want the most stable and up-to date version of FreeBSD available for installation, find a recent snapshot of 3.3 for i386 and download the boot floppies from there. The handbook at www.freebsd.org/handbook/ describes much of this process in detail (see "Staying -STABLE with FreeBSD", and all sections on installing). On Mon, 13 Dec 1999, William F.

I added the lines { device pcm0 device es0 } to my custom kernel, and /tried/ to sh MAKEDEV pcm0 - as per the sound how-to - but trying to make the node just returns an error, that there is no such device. BUT dmesg shows devices pcm1 and es1 initializing on boot. I tried making a node for pcm1 and got the same result as before. when attempting to use mixer, it reports: "/dev/mixer: device not configured, [do you mean pcm1?]" so I pointer mixer to pcm1... and got the same message, minus the "do you mean..."

Do you mean you did the upgrade option in sysinstall? Upgrading a major release in this manner is something that I would hesitate to try.

I added the lines > { > device pcm0 > device es0 > } If you added those lines exactly as you typed them to your kernel configuration in /sys/i386/conf, I would really like to know how you got your new kernel to compile! es0 isn't even a valid device in -STABLE's LINT. You are using a SoundBlaster PCI128 (inferred from subject line)? On my desktop system, I add the following two lines, and ONLY these two lines in my config (Luigi's sound code! I've always had more luck with these as opposed to VOXWARE) device pcm0 at isa? port ? tty irq 10 drq1 flags 0x0 device pca0 at isa? port "IO_TIMER1" tty Which gives you PC speaker functionality as well... Although I don't have one... And any time I have, the connectors never seem to find their way to the motherboard pins :-) DISCLAIMER: Attempting the following procedure (or ANY procedure beyond `rm -R /`, for that matter), without having read the section in the freebsd handbook (www.freebsd.org/handbook) is a very BAD idea. Seriously, do read up on this stuff. It'll save you a lot of grief later on down the road. Ryan's impromptu crash course in kernel compiles: # config # cd ../../compile/ # make depend # make # make install # reboot .... # dmesg | more Ask yourself: Was it detected? I see: es1: rev 0x00 int a irq 10 on pci0.11.0 pcm1: using I/O space register mapping at 0xa400 Then, and only then, do a sh MAKEDEV snd1 and attempt to use your sound. Also, remember to turn your mixer volumes up, lest ye have a working sound card that seems oddly silent. :-) > to my custom kernel, and /tried/ to sh MAKEDEV pcm0 - as per the sound > how-to - but trying to make the node just returns an error, that there > is no such device. > > BUT dmesg shows devices pcm1 and es1 initializing on boot. When posting a problem along the lines of "why doesn't this work", it helps (and is often essential) for you to include your FULL dmesg output, as well as any part of the kernel config that's different from GENERIC. In particular, what EXACTLY did you add to your kernel config? Copy any changed lines verbatim so we can see what you've done. > I tried making a node for pcm1 and got the same result as before. > > when attempting to use mixer, it reports: > "/dev/mixer: device not configured, [do you mean pcm1?]" > > so I pointer mixer to pcm1... and got the same message, minus the "do > you mean..." Nope... Carefully undo whatever you've done in that regard and do a MAKEDEV snd1. That's most likely your problem (or at least part of it). Before asking additional questions, please be ready to provide as much information as is possible, so we can give you a more specific answer. This message was as close to a tutorial as I get; as long as you don't have any more general problems with you system (such as hardware conflicts, bus/chipset incompatibility problems, or problems from 2.2.8 upgrade), following my directions should bless you with a functioning sound card. Hope I've been of help.

I would boot into windows and check the settings there, but unfortunately (or fortunately :) it didn't see the light of day for more than 5 minutes... anyway, the few things I've found so far: I got my raw disk throughput (as measured by dd ) up from 3mb/s to 12 by adding flags 0xa0ffa0ff to my controller wdc0 line in my kernel config file: controller wdc0 at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 flags 0xa0ffa0ff also, I noticed that when I would suspend the machine, the fxp0 wouldn't wake up immediately after a resume, but would take a good minute or so to come to it's senses if at all.. after some random poking I discovered that throwing it into promiscuous mode for a moment would wake it right up.. so here's what I did: in /etc/rc.resume, I added: if [ -e /var/run/connected ] then /usr/sbin/tcpdump -n -c 1 > /dev/null 2>&1 fi now, before you jump on me, here's why I have /var/run/connected: in /root/bin, I've got a script called box23.sh: #!/bin/sh echo -n " box23" ifconfig fxp0 inet 10.10.3.4 netmask 255.255.255.0 route add default 10.10.3.1 > /dev/null 2>&1 ln -sf /root/bin/box23.sh /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ifup.sh touch /var/run/connected and a script called ifdown.sh: #!/bin/sh ifconfig fxp0 down route delete default rm /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ifup.sh rm /var/run/connected I actually have two other scripts for the other two networks I use my vaio on regularly..

Anyway, what should I do? 1) Once connected do a nslookup and find out who I really am, and set my hostname to that string, then cvsup. Should that work? I'm at work right now and can't test it. 2) Use my Disc set and try to use the CVS repository on one of them? How do I go about doing that?

Some of the specific problems are: 1. During installation of some of the Ports Collection packages it was continually noted that a number of packages were not successfully loaded with many Error 1 messages reported generally at the stage (possibly during) that pkg_add was being employed. This would occur for approximately 30% of the packages. In particular it was noted for qpopper and some netscape items. After the Ports Collection installation was completed it was attempted to manually install the qpopper2.53 package (using pkg_add) from the tgz file located in packages/mail on the CDROM (#1) but this was not successful, even a simple unix copy of the file from the CDROM to the FREEBSD Unix box (using cp) was not possible. A download file from www.qualcomm.com was eventually obtained and this seemed to be successfully loaded enabling POP3 to be initiated and tested (refer also to page 559 of the Complete FreeBSD Handbook). 2. The required installation of popclient (v???) did not result (refer also p 560 of Handbook). Is this indeed a problem? It was noted that no references to popclient files were available on CD#1. Is there indeed another source for this package or indeed is it now superseded by something else (perhaps wmpop3?). 3. As far as the Netscape browser is concerned (eithet 4.0 or 4.6 Communicator and Navigator). We appear only at present to have access to a Japanese version (ie weird characters) during an X Windows session. Is this possible? Is there an obvious solution/remedy? (Refer also p 564-567 of Handbook). 4. The majordomo (v1.94.4?) package did not appear to be successfully loaded (this is a mailing lists package). There appeared to be no specific package files for this and even a downloaded .tar.Z file from SGI did not appear to be of assistance. Once again was the problem with the CDROM or are we missing something? We are/were attempting to install FreeBSD 3.3 on a system with 48MB memory and 2.2GB HDD with no other OS (ie no Microsoft Windows partition). Any possible assistance by way of response(s) to these problems would be appreciated. In particular whether it is preferable to download package files from the Net separately as a matter of course.

(The entry 161.74.69/24 _should_ be 'link#1' analogous to > the 161.74.70.16/28 entry below.) You are right, this entry should not be there. It is due to the fact that I'm also running routed on 161.74.69.63 which is FreeBSD dialup server. I was using routed on the FreeBSD dialup server to add the route for the ppp interfaces. I've now added the 'defaultroute' keyword to /etc/ppp/options on the FreeBSD dialup server and I stopped routed, so this route is not exported anymore.

I'm running FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE (Intel Pentium, IDE - stock hardware) on our company mailserver. I tried updating to 3.3 this morning via cvsup. The server crashed for no apparent reason. fsck bails out during its Connectivity Check, saying "inode 90459... not found". The partition can be mounted and I've managed to make a backup of the few files I've already altered. However, I'm loath to reinstalling the entire machine.

Systems Affected * Systems running some versions of sshd * Systems using products that use RSAREF2 (e.g., some SSL-enabled web servers) I. Description Some versions of sshd are vulnerable to a buffer overflow that can allow an intruder to influence certain variables internal to the program. This vulnerability alone does not allow an intruder to execute code. However, a vulnerability in RSAREF2, which was discovered and researched by Core SDI, can be used in conjunction with the vulnerability in sshd to allow a remote intruder to execute arbitrary code. Additional information about the RSAREF2 vulnerability can be found at http://www.core-sdi.com/advisories/buffer%20overflow%20ing.htm The RSAREF2 library was developed from a different code base than other implementations of the RSA algorithm, including those from RSA Security Inc. The vulnerability described in this advisory is specific to the RSAREF2 library and does not imply any weakness in other implementations of the RSA algorithm or the algorithm itself. Also, only versions of SSH compiled with RSAREF support, via the --with-rsaref option, are vulnerable to these issues. The use of the RSAREF2 library in other products may present additional vulnerabilities. RSAREF2 may be used in products such as SSL-enabled web servers, ssh clients, or other cryptographically enhanced products. Appendix A of this advisory will be updated with new information as it becomes available regarding problems in other products that use the RSAREF2 library. II. Impact Using the two vulnerabilities in conjunction allows an intruder to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the process running sshd, typically root. We are investigating whether vulnerabilities in other products may expose the vulnerability in RSAREF2, and will update this advisory as appropriate. See Appendices A and B for more information that may affect the impact of this vulnerability. III. Solution Apply patch(es) from your product vendor Apply patch(es) to the RSAREF2 library. RSA Security Inc. holds a patent on the RSA algorithm and a copyright on the RSAREF2 implementation. We encourage you to consult your legal counsel regarding the legality of any fixes you are considering before implementing those fixes. Please see RSA's vendor statement in Appendix A. Exploiting the vulnerability in RSAREF2 requires an application program to call the RSAREF2 library with malicious input. For products that allow an intruder to influence the data provided to the RSAREF2 library, you may be able to protect against attacks by validating the data they provide to RSAREF2. Appendix A contains information provided by vendors for this advisory. Appendix B contains information regarding test performed by the CERT Coordination Center and other people, and advice based on those tests. We will update the appendices as we receive or develop more information. If you do not see your vendor's name in Appendix A, the CERT/CC did not hear from that vendor. Please contact your vendor directly. Use a non-vulnerable implementation of the RSA algorithm Sites not restricted by patent law may choose to use a non-vulnerable implementation of RSA. Since RSA Security Inc. holds a patent on the RSA algorithm, this option may not be legally available to you. Please consult your legal counsel for guidance on this issue. Appendix A. Vendor Information Compaq Computer Corporation (c) Copyright 1998, 1999 Compaq Computer Corporation. All rights reserved. SOURCE: Compaq Computer Corporation Compaq Services Software Security Response Team USA Compaq's Tru64 UNIX is not vulnerable. Compaq does not ship ssl Covalent Technologies Covalent Raven SSL module for Apache The Raven SSL module is not vulnerable to this attack since the SSL library used does not use the RSAREF library. Data Fellows Inc. F-Secure SSH versions prior 1.3.7 are vulnerable but F-Secure SSH 2.x and above are not. FreeBSD FreeBSD 3.3R and prior releases contain packages with this problem. This problem was corrected December 2, 1999 in the ports tree. Packages built after this date with the rsaref updated should be unaffected by this vulnerabilities. Some or all of the following ports may be affected should be rebuilt: p5-Penguin, p5-Penguin-Easy, jp-pgp, ja-w3m-ssl, ko-pgp, pgpsendmail, pine4-ssl, premail, ParMetis, SSLtelnet, mpich, pipsecd, tund, nntpcache, p5-Gateway, p5-News-Article, ru-pgp, bjorb, keynote, OpenSSH, openssl, p5-PGP, p5-PGP-Sign, pgp, slush, ssh, sslproxy, stunnel, apache+mod_ssl, apache+ssl, lynx-ssl, w3m-ssl, zope Please see the FreeBSD Handbook for information on how to obtain a current copy of the ports tree and how to rebuild those ports which depend on rsaref. Hewlett-Packard Company HP does not supply SSH. HP has not conducted compatibility testing with version 1.2.27 of SSH, when compiled with the option --with-rsaref. Further, RSAREF2 has not been tested to date. As far as the investigation to date, HP appears to be not vulnerable. IBM Corporation IBM AIX does not currently ship the secure shell (ssh) nor do the base components of AIX ship or link with the RSAREF2 library. IBM and AIX are registered trademarks of International Business Machines Corporation. Microsoft The Microsoft Security Response Team has investigated this issue, and no Microsoft products are affected by the vulnerability. NetBSD NetBSD does not ship with ssh in either its US-only or International variants at this time, so no default installation of NetBSD is vulnerable. However, ssh is installed and widely used by many NetBSD installations, and is available from our software package tree in source form. The NetBSD ssh package can be compiled either with or without RSAREF2, settable by the administrator at compile time according to local copyright and license restrictions. Installations which used RSAREF2 in compiling ssh are vulnerable, and we recommend recompiling without RSAREF2 if their local legal situation permits. In addition, the following list of software packages in the NetBSD "packages" system are also dependent on the RSAREF2 library: * archivers/hpack * security/openssl * security/pgp2 * security/pgp5 * www/ap-ssl of those, the security/openssl package is itself a library, and the following packages depend on it: * net/ppp-mppe * net/speakfreely-crypto * www/ap-ssl We recommend recompiling and reinstalling these packages without RSAREF2, if your local legal situation permits. Network Associates, Inc. After a technical review of the buffer overflow bug in RSAREF, we have determined at Network Associates that PGP is not affected by this bug, because of the careful way that PGP uses RSAREF. This applies to all versions of PGP ever released by MIT, which are the only versions of PGP that use RSAREF. All other versions of PGP, such as the commercial versions and the international versions, avoid the use of RSAREF entirely. Philip Zimmermann 10 December 1999 [CERT/CC Note: A PGP signed copy of this information and additional technical details are available as well.] OpenSSL OpenSSL with RSAREF is not vulnerable. OpenBSD / OpenSSH More information is available from: http://www.openbsd.org/errata.html#sslUSA RSA Security Inc. RSA Security Inc. recommends that developers implement the proposed or similar patch to RSAREF version 2.0 or otherwise to ensure that the length in bits of the modulus supplied to RSAREF is less than or equal to MAX_RSA_MODULUS_BITS. RSA Security Inc. is no longer distributing the RSAREF toolkit, which it offered through RSA Laboratories in the mid-1990s as a free, source implementation of modern cryptographic algorithms. Under the terms of the RSAREF license, changes to the RSAREF code other than porting or performance improvement require written consent. RSA Security hereby gives its consent to implement a patch to RSAREF to address this advisory. This advisory only applies to RSAREF, not RSA Security's current toolkits and products, which were developed independently of RSAREF. Although RSA Security is no longer distributing RSAREF, the toolkit is still available in a number of "freeware" products such as SSH under RSA Security's original RSAREF v2.0 software license ("license.txt", March 25, 1994), which is distributed along with those products. As a reminder, that license limits the use of RSAREF to noncommercial purposes. RSAREF, RSAREF applications, and services based on RSAREF applications may not be sold, licensed or otherwise transferred for value. (There is a minor exception for small "shareware" deployments as noted in the "info.txt" file, March 25, 1994.) SSH Communications The bug only affects ssh when it is compiled with RSAREF (i.e., only when --with-rsaref is explicitly supplied on the command line). Any version compiled without --with-rsaref is not affected. The problem should not affect users of the commercial versions (who are licensed to use the built-in RSA) or users outside the United States (who are presumably not using RSAREF and can use the built-in RSA without needing a license). I.e., only those non-commercial users who actually compile with a separately obtained RSAREF should be affected. The bug is present in all versions of SSH1, up to and including 1.2.27. It will be fixed in ssh-1-2.28 (expected to go out in a few days to fix this problem). It does not affect SSH2. (Please note that ssh1 is no longer maintained, except for security fixes, due to certain rather fundamental problems that have been fixed in ssh2.) Any implementation compiled without an explicitly specified --with-rsaref is not affected by this problem. A patch provided by SSH Communications is available from the CERT/CC web site. This version of the patch has been signed by the CERT/CC. Stronghold Stronghold does not use RSAREF and is unaffected. Appendix B. CERT/CC and Other Third-Party Tests RSAREF Patch from Core SDI and the CERT/CC With the assistance of Core SDI, the CERT Coordination Center tested sshd version 1.2.27 running on an Intel-based RedHat Linux system and found that configuration to be vulnerable. Tests conducted by Core SDI indicate that sshd 1.2.27 running on OpenBSD and FreeBSD on Intel is also vulnerable, and it is likely that other configurations are vulnerable as well. CERT/CC has developed a patch for the RSAREF2 vulnerability based in part on work done by Core SDI. This patch is available at ftp://ftp.core-sdi.com/pub/patches/rsaref2.patch http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-99-15/rsa-patch.txt You can verify this patch with a detached PGP signature from the CERT/CC. We believe the patch originally provided by Core SDI in their advisory may not be a complete fix to this particular problem. We have worked with them to develop an updated patch and gratefully acknowledge their contribution to the fix provided here. Neither the CERT/CC, the Software Engineering Institute, nor Carnegie Mellon University provides any warranties regarding this patch. Please see our disclaimer at the end of this advisory. Possible vulnerability of ssh clients The possible vulnerability of ssh clients is of particular concern. As we learn more regarding the vulnerability of ssh clients, we will update this advisory. One possible way to attack an ssh client would be to construct a malicious ssh server and lure or trick victims into connecting to the server. The ssh client will warn users when it connects to a site that presents a key that does not match one previously associated with the server. The dialog may be similar to the following: % ssh badhost @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ @ WARNING: HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED! @ @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY! Someone could be eavesdropping on you right now (man-in-the-middle attack)! It is also possible that the host key has just been changed. Please contact your system administrator. Add correct host key in /etc/.ssh/known_hosts to get rid of this message. Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? no % If you see this warning, you should answer "no" to the prompt and investigate why the key you received does not match the key you expected. _________________________________________________________________ The CERT Coordination Center would like to thank Alberto Solino and Gerardo Richarte of Core SDI S.A.

When trying to use the PPP Facility listed under the Menu tab Internet, in all cases I was unable to access the serial ports. During the setup of a new account using the PPP Facility, it gives the option of choosing /dev/modem, /dev/ttyS0, /dev/ttyS1, /dev/ttyS2, or /dev/ttyS3. For home programming I have been using Linux(SuSE, Debian) for sometime and typically have used /dev/ttyS3(COM 4) without any problems whatsoever. For whatever reason(s) regardless of which ports I select it responds with either "[xxxx]unrecognized option - /dev/modem" or "[xxxx]unrecognized option - ttySx". I tried re-enabling the serial port #2 on the motherboard in the BIOS, without effect. I also tried issuing the command - "ln -s /dev/ttyS3 /dev/cuaa3", similarly without effect. I also issued the command "ifconfig -a" and it listed "ppp0" as being an active port. Similarly I went back and tested ttyS3(COM 4), demonstrating that it a working serial port. I also went about setting up PPP using chat scripts(i.e. using ppp.conf and dial.conf). In all cases, regardless of what I chose as a port(i.e. cuaa1 - cuaa3 or ttyS1 - ttyS3), it still would not recognize the port. I have went and thoroughly studied the PPP How-to, PPP Primer, Pedantic PPP etc., and the PPP man pages all to no avail. I am not sure if I am missing something very simple or what. I use this platform primarily for engineering/software development and must have access to the WWW in order to do my work. I have already lost a couple of days fighting this problem, and am not sure how to proceed at this point. This must be a simple problem. Thank you in advance for your patience and time to help me resolve this problem.

Also, has anyone tried those new APM scripts that came with 3.3? -jm To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 14 6:40:10 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from probity.mcc.ac.uk (probity.mcc.ac.uk [130.88.200.94]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C9EC014C3D for ; Tue, 14 Dec 1999 06:40:07 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jcm@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org) Received: from dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org ([130.88.200.97]) by probity.mcc.ac.uk with esmtp (Exim 1.92 #3) id 11xt7S-0004vm-00; Tue, 14 Dec 1999 14:40:02 +0000 Received: from localhost (jcm@localhost) by dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id OAA84874; Tue, 14 Dec 1999 14:40:02 GMT (envelope-from jcm@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org) Date: Tue, 14 Dec 1999 14:40:02 +0000 (GMT) From: Jonathon McKitrick To: chris reaume Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: softupdates and laptops.. is it safe?

Have you checked the kernel probe messages to see whether the kernel detects the serial port you're using correctly? You might want to try the simpler approach of setting up user PPP directly. Things like Gnome are very pretty, but as with anything that tries to hide the details from you, they can make diagnosing problems more difficult than it needs to be. The process is pretty straight-forward and user PPP is very well supported. See the setup instructions at: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/ppp-and-slip.html#USERPPP Ciao, Sheldon.

Is there a way to get mail.local to respect user quotas? I have already hacked it to deliver to user's home directories. I know you can use procmail or qmail to do this, but I have also heard that procmail is not to "good" to use for a FreeBSD system because it reads messages into memory and big messages can (maybe) crash a system (if you don't have an size limit on incoming email that is)? At least, that had apparently happened to an older system with procmail we had here. And I haven't had a chance to mess with qmail yet ;-) 2. Is there a way to send an email to users to let them know they are over (or close to over) their quota? I am going to be migrating some users from an old BSDI 2.0 machine over to this new FreeBSD box, and the quota system on the BSDI box would send emails out when someone was over. I know I can just write some sort of script that would run repquota and grep for those over, but wondered if there was a built in function for that.

This vulnerability alone does not allow an intruder to execute code. =20 However, a vulnerability in RSAREF2, which was discovered and researched by Core SDI, can be used in conjunction with the vulnerability in sshd to allow a remote intruder to execute arbitrary code. It also indicates for FreeBSD that: FreeBSD FreeBSD 3.3R and prior releases contain packages with this problem. This problem was corrected December 2, 1999 in the ports tree. Packages built after this date with the rsaref updated should be unaffected by this vulnerabilities. Some or all of the following ports may be affected should be rebuilt: =20 p5-Penguin, p5-Penguin-Easy, jp-pgp, ja-w3m-ssl, ko-pgp, pgpsendmail, pine4-ssl, premail, ParMetis, SSLtelnet, mpich, pipsecd, tund, nntpcache, p5-Gateway, p5-News-Article, ru-pgp, bjorb, keynote, OpenSSH, openssl, p5-PGP, p5-PGP-Sign, pgp, slush, ssh, sslproxy, stunnel, apache+mod_ssl, apache+ssl, lynx-ssl, w3m-ssl, zope =20 Please see the FreeBSD Handbook for information on how to obtain a current copy of the ports tree and how to rebuild those ports which depend on rsaref. My /usr/src are cvsup'ed every evening in addition to /usr/ports. 'make world' was performed Monday, Dec 13 and kernel is 3.4-RC. I have 'make deinstall' rsaref-2.0 and attempted to=20 'make reinstall' but I get this error: =3D=3D=3D> Patching for rsaref-2.0 =3D=3D=3D> Applying FreeBSD patches for rsaref-2.0 Ignoring previously applied (or reversed) patch. 1 out of 1 hunks ignored--saving rejects to rsaref.h.rej *** Error code 1 Stop. This error was generated after an initial 4 out of 4 hunks ignored and 'make reinstall' was performed again. The error can be generated on machines that had rsaref previously installed as well as machines that never had rsaref installed. Are the patches for /usr/ports/security/rsaref broken now?

I don't use -S myself but I would suggest first substituting the IP address for the name in your -S list. If that makes the problem go away then you know the root of the problem is in resolving the name to the address and can narrow your search to that issue. For that matter you could probably just substitute 127.0.0.1 or localhost for the slave server's hostname in your -S list and be done with it. -Mitch >Yes... I am using -S (not -s).

Only if you tell it to replace the boot manager (you do get the option...) There are some bits in the documentation about how to add FreeBSD to the NT loader menu. It wasn't hard as I recall (I installed 3.2R after I'd installed NT 4).

Just run vipw on the new system, copy lines from old master.passwd to the new system's master.passwd, and vipw will take care of running pwd_mkdb for you.

Is the data you're writing already compressed before it goes to the tape? Hardware compressing a file that is already software compressed will actually end up making it bigger rather than smaller.

The MFS ramdisk is self defeating. You are taking away memory to use as swap. So when you run out of memory, you swap to memory you could have been using and not have to swap. It simply doesn't make any sense to do that. If your system panics, you are in trouble. I did a number of benchmarks on Cray XM/P's and the writing behind of data was 50% of the throughput. It was far more important to get data that you needed to read than it was to write something immediately to the HD. That works up to the point you crash and then, you still have data in memory. Sooner or later, I will start running softupdates but I haven't yet. I'm not doing anything disk intensive.

I'm not sure what you mean by "linking swap to a MFS ramdisk". If you are talking about putting /tmp on an MFS filesystem, which in return resides in virtual memory, then the answer to your question is "both".

My advice to you would be to simply ignore the spiffy X ppp config stuff, as far as i know it's linux specific (ttyS2, ttyS3) so it's probably not going to want to work with FreeBSD. Not only that but FreeBSD's ppp is pretty easy to configure. You don't say what version of freebsd you are using, but if you're running something after 3.1/3.2 (maybe earlier) there should be an almost plug and play config file in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf, just open it up and change the lines: -- papchap: # # edit the next three lines and replace the items in caps with # the values which have been assigned by your ISP. # set phone PHONE_NUM set authname USERNAME set authkey PASSWORD -- to what they need, then run 'ppp -ddial papchap' that should help. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 14 13:43: 1 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from arwana.untan.ac.id (arwana.untan.ac.id [167.205.153.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 15C0E14D00 for ; Tue, 14 Dec 1999 13:42:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from odhienx@arwana.untan.ac.id) Received: (qmail 2501 invoked by uid 1003); 14 Dec 1999 04:45:19 -0000 Received: from localhost (sendmail-bs@127.0.0.1) by localhost with SMTP; 14 Dec 1999 04:45:19 -0000 Date: Tue, 14 Dec 1999 04:45:19 +0000 (GMT) From: Salihin To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: splash screen Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG hi.. i want use splash screen in my freebsd 32R but .. i have error messages like this ...

I'll offer an educated guess, not having actually used a dds4 drive or even mt on a freebsd box. The dds drives are capable of detecting what type of tape you give them by looking at the holes on the underside edge farthest from the hinge. If mt is confused about the tape type I wouldn't worry too much about that. As far as hardware compression there are probably only two choices - on or off. You should be able to control compression from software but it doesn't always work. If by testing you can determine that turning compression on/off isn't gaining you anything (with uncompressed files!) then you need to double-check the switch settings on the drive and at that point start questioning the software. Hope this helps. -Mitch To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 14 13:57:58 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.alpha.net.au (mail2.alpha.net.au [203.41.44.8]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C4AB61512B for ; Tue, 14 Dec 1999 13:57:55 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dannyh@idx.com.au) Received: from psych ([203.41.44.155]) by mail.alpha.net.au (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id IAA10239; Wed, 15 Dec 1999 08:58:15 +1100 Message-Id: <3.0.32.19991215085706.00695450@idx.com.au> X-Sender: dannyh@idx.com.au X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0 (32) Date: Wed, 15 Dec 1999 08:59:01 +1100 To: kde@lists.netcentral.net, freebsd-questions@freebsd.org From: Danny Subject: Netscape problems on 3.3 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="=====================_945169141==_" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG --=====================_945169141==_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Situation Running Freebsd 3.3 Running the default KDE that comes with Freebsd 3.3 I have attached the output of tail -f /var/log/messages >> somefile for the mailing list. --=====================_945169141==_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="netscapekdeproblem" Dec 15 19:57:53 fraud /kernel: zp0 not found at 0x300 Dec 15 19:57:53 fraud /kernel: adv0 not found at 0x330 Dec 15 19:57:53 fraud /kernel: bt0 not found at 0x134 Dec 15 19:57:53 fraud /kernel: aha0 not found at 0x134 Dec 15 19:57:53 fraud /kernel: vga0 at 0x3b0-0x3df maddr 0xa0000 msize 131072 on isa Dec 15 19:57:53 fraud /kernel: npx0 on motherboard Dec 15 19:57:53 fraud /kernel: npx0: INT 16 interface Dec 15 19:57:53 fraud /kernel: Intel Pentium detected, installing workaround for F00F bug Dec 15 19:57:53 fraud /kernel: changing root device to wd0s2a Dec 15 19:58:52 fraud /kernel: pid 276 (navigator-4.61.b), uid 1000: exited on signal 10 --=====================_945169141==_-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 14 14: 8:42 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from typhoon.mail.pipex.net (typhoon.mail.pipex.net [158.43.128.27]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 85D8314F53 for ; Tue, 14 Dec 1999 14:08:31 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mark@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org) Received: (qmail 24837 invoked from network); 14 Dec 1999 22:08:26 -0000 Received: from useraj18.uk.uudial.com (HELO marder-1.)

It's probably even easier to use this: (cd /source/directory && tar cf - . ) | (cd /dest/directory && tar xvfp -) which will also work across partitions/disks.

After installing the port, check /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile for a self-explanatory configuration example.

I am in the process of bringing our company's LAN onto the internet. As a first step, we are running mail on a 3.3-RELEASE box using fetchmail to fetch the mail for our domain off a server on the 'net via modem. In order to get all the workstations configured as I would like them when the system is fully completed, I run a local nameserver on the 3.3 box as a master for our domain. This server is not reachable yet from the internet, so it should not interfere with our domain nameserers located on the 'net. The 3.3 box is also not known to the internet nameservers for our domain, only the server which stores our domain mail off-site is known at present. My first attempt, prior to discovering that 3.3-RELEASE no longer needs resolv.conf if you are running a local nameserver, was to make a resolv.conf file with the local nameserver entry first, and then two nameserver IPs provided by our ISP on the two next lines. This allowed the "local" nameserver to be consulted first, resolving problems with names not know to the "real" domain server (which knows only the off-site server's IP). Every day, upon firing up my workstation, I would find problems with TELNETing into the local server. I guessed that this was a nameserver problem. Upon looking at resolv.conf, I found that the IP of the local nameserver, the whole line, had been removed. The time of modification of the file was at the time the "periodic/daily" script ran. I could find no mention in the "daily" scripts of resolv.conf. The "daily" scripts daily e-mail message to "root" showed no errors. I fixed the problem by just eliminating resolv.conf and defaulting to the local nameserver, but what was modifying the resolv.conf file?

Thanks -- the RADSL line here is reasonably free from errors, thank goodness. I've got an external router connected to a switch to which the rest of my small LAN is hooked up as well. I thought it might be the low values for the TCP receive and send buffers -- 16KB by default.

I seem to recall reading some issues about this particular card. You might try explicitly forcing the duplex to either half or full and seeing how that effects performance. The main thing is for the card and switch to agree on the settings. Dont trust auto-neg, as most of the times I have found it not to work properly. You should be able to tell by just doing some transfers from one machine to another on your LAN. >Could this one have anything to do with IP routing: > > net.inet.ip.fastforwarding: 0 Yes.

I upped them to 65K with: sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.recvspace=65536 sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.sendspace=65536 but it didn't really make any difference. Going through the sysctl options, I noticed several which may or may not affect performance: Don't know what these do, but I presume they're for LANS: net.local.stream.sendspace: 8192 net.local.stream.recvspace: 8192 net.local.dgram.maxdgram: 2048 net.local.dgram.recvspace: 4096 Could this one have anything to do with IP routing: net.inet.ip.fastforwarding: 0 RFC 1323 extensions are useful for me: net.inet.tcp.rfc1323: 1 Is this the default maximum segment size? net.inet.tcp.mssdflt: 512 The TCP send and receive buffers: net.inet.tcp.sendspace: 65536 net.inet.tcp.recvspace: 65536 Hmmm... Delayed ACKs? net.inet.tcp.delayed_ack: 1 UDP datagram sizes? net.inet.udp.maxdgram: 9216 net.inet.udp.recvspace: 41600 Now what's this then? I increased the raw.recvspace, but I'm not sure what good it would do: net.inet.raw.maxdgram: 8192 net.inet.raw.recvspace: 65536 Where are all these options described? The man page isn't much use.

Unfortunately, it's an unmanaged switch, so I can't get anything useful out of it like port stats and diags. I get full speed ftp transfers (~1MBps, the switch has only one 100Mbps port, the rest are 10Mbps) at the moment, but will try the FD thing as well. I was just trying to figure out how to explicitly force the card into full-duplex... ifconfig ?? > Yes. If the box is going to act as a router. Ahh.. thanks. I'm using the box as a caching http proxy, email, ftp, Web, ssh etc. server, but I suppose as it only has the one network interface, it isn't doing much routing at the moment. > > You should not have to change any of those values.

I'm in New Zealand, and much of this country's Internet connectivity comes via satellite. RTTs to hosts outside NZ range from 200ms if I'm lucky, to 350ms and higher typically. I've found that increasing the TCP receive buffers on Linux, WinNT and Win98 make a huge difference in this situation.

I can get most of the way through set-up. I choose to install from CD-ROM, and I will get to the screen that has the progress meter. The CD will spin for about 5-10 seconds and stop. The progress meter never moves past zero. At first I thought this was an I/O setting error. So, I threw the same drive into NT Server, figured out which I/O address it was defaulting to, put it back into my BSD machine-to-be, and got the following error: "No CDROM devices found! Please check that your system's configuration is correct and that the..." So now I'm thinking that it wasn't an I/O error because I got further before I putzed with the I/O setting. The CD-ROM is a Delta, Model # OPC-K101. It is a relatively new, ATAPI 40x drive. Any suggestions? (Hope I was clear... Kind of new to the FreeBSD thing... Very comfortable in MS, however...) Why are no files being copied when it gets to that stage???? TIA.

FreeBSD detected your Maxtor hard drive on this controller, SO, it called on the wd driver to give you wd0. wd0 is the FIRST DRIVE on your primary IDE controller. Without the driver for it, you would have no root filesystem :-) wdc1, as you might guess, is your secondary IDE controller, which, like your primary did, found a drive at position 0 (master, or, in this case, a single drive). Now, for some reason, the kernel didn't use the acd driver for your ATAPI drive. The detection line for wd1 looks pretty standard... But, if the kernel doesn't properly detect your CD drive, it will not load an acd driver. Thus, you will not have a working CD :-) Possible reasons include most things I mentioned in my previous message. I'd almost be willing to hang a bet on your jumper config. Barring that, try booting with and without a CD in the drive, trying a different IDE cable, etc, etc... Standard hardware diagnostic stuff. The kernel reported the standard atapi support... But I suppose it IS possible that you have a marginally compatible drive that is rejecting FreeBSD's attempts to identify and access it. > [...] More kernel output > > This was done after trying to mount the cdrom, per someone's suggestion to > boot with the disc in as a work around, using: > > mount -t cd9660 /dev/acd0a /cdrom Yes, stick with that command line... And DO ensure that the /cdrom directory exists prior to mounting. As simple as it sounds, it's a very common mistake among newbies, and /cdrom isn't created for you by sysinstall. > >Hmm...

Yup... If that's not it, as a workaround/additional test, you might try jumpering your CD drive as a slave and sticking it on the middle cable position of your primary IDE controller. The above is something I usually try as a "late resort" ("last resort" being unhooking the drive, putting it back in the static bag, and giving it a ceremonial burial in the dumpster on the corner). I say "late resort", because some (particularly pre-pentium) configurations dislike CD drives sharing IDE channels with HDDs. And, if it does work, you may notice a decline in your HDD throughput. Question: You DID remember to enable the secondary IDE channel in your BIOS config, right?

After you graduate out of the "newbie" stage, you will find the FreeBSD experience to be both enlightening and refreshing, and just challenging enough at times to hold your interest (or keep your wage high, whatever the case might be :-). I sometimes define the aforementioned "graduation" as successfully rebooting a system after the first time fsck fails and drops you into single user mode with a read-only root filesystem, ed, and no man pages. I believe this is an important rite of passage for upcoming sysadmins. Sometimes I also think it doubles as an important termination of a lot of unworthy sysadmins :-) With any luck, you won't fall into the latter category :-) > --original message omitted due to size-- > What, was I rambling again? :-) Virtually yours, - Ryan --- Ryan Thompson 50% Owner, Technical and Accounts Phone: +1 (306) 664-1161 SaskNow Technologies http://www.sasknow.com #106-380 3120 8th St E Saskatoon, SK S7H 0W2 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 14 23:10:50 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mojave.worldwide.lemis.com (mojave.lemis.com [192.109.197.162]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 86E58154F1 for ; Tue, 14 Dec 1999 23:10:46 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from grog@mojave.worldwide.lemis.com) Received: (from grog@localhost) by mojave.worldwide.lemis.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id UAA00531; Mon, 13 Dec 1999 20:47:59 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from grog) Date: Mon, 13 Dec 1999 20:47:59 -0800 From: Greg Lehey To: Dean Hollister Cc: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: Massive link lags in pppd Message-ID: <19991213204759.E373@mojave.worldwide.lemis.com> Reply-To: Greg Lehey References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0i In-Reply-To: ; from dean@odyssey.apana.org.au on Mon, Dec 13, 1999 at 09:54:06PM +0800 WWW-Home-Page: http://www.lemis.com/~grog X-PGP-Fingerprint: 6B 7B C3 8C 61 CD 54 AF 13 24 52 F8 6D A4 95 EF Organization: LEMIS, PO Box 460, Echunga SA 5153, Australia Phone: +61-8-8388-8286 Fax: +61-8-8388-8725 Mobile: +61-41-739-7062 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Monday, 13 December 1999 at 21:54:06 +0800, Dean Hollister wrote: > x-no-archive: yes > > Hiyall, > > Has anyone seen this behaviour anywhere before?

You have done, to me. Why ask -questions? I replied before you sent this message, but since I was travelling, it didn't get delivered until later. Be patient when submitting software for inclusion; my response, even given the delay due to my travel, was relatively fast. In general, if you submit software for inclusion, wait at least a week for a reply. Then tickle the person you submitted the software too.

I'm not saying you're wrong, but there are so many different things which could have caused them, and we'd really love to know what the problem is. This isn't so much as a "the problem is in *this* component" problem as a "how do we catch this bug and eliminate it" problem. > In several cases, I ended up with partitions I could not clean > with fsck.

Since the primary intention of soft updates is to handle I/O errors well, you can believe that we're concerned about this. If you can give us details of what goes wrong, preferably repeatable, we'll be grateful. Yes, this is asking a lot. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

Inhouse sending files as attachments is by far the most convenient method to distribute documents. They can get quite large (i.e. nice powerpoint presentations). I vote for very large default spool areas (they not only send them powerpoint presentations, they also want to print them). The automatic calculation of partitions under freebsd leads to unuseable mail and print spool systems in practice.

I'm afraid that "without success" isn't a useful description of the failure you encountered with user PPP. Did you have a look at the online handbook instructions for setting up user PPP? If so, where did things go wrong, and what error messages did you see? Remember that user PPP can be made to log lots of useful information to /var/log/ppp.log . > By the way I am running the following hardware configuration: > Pentium II, Atrend ATC-6220 motherboard clocked at 266Mhz w/Maxtor > 5.7GB HD, Sony CDROM, ATI Xpert 98 Video Card and a 56K Zoom/Fax > modem(NOT a winmodem). Aaiiieee! Zoom modems. They were the bane of my life when I was in the dial ISP game. But let's not jump to conclusions.

Well show us your dmesg and ppp.log output, as well as any error messages the ppp command issues, and we'll take it from there. I suggest you carbon copy the information back to the freebsd-questions mailing list so that you get the benefit of _everyone's_ experience, not just mine. Ciao, Sheldon.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Dear friends . I run FreeBSD 3.1 . We know that login.conf has some features like authentication and accounting. and certain programs who are responsible for that feature , will read login.conf.db and look for the features that they are supposed to handle ( They do this search in login.conf.db by login.cap* functions ) Authentiction features are invoked by login and work perfectly . But no program is responsible for accounting features of login.conf ! I got it because in documents of login.conf is written "to enable accounting you should set boolean variable "accounted" " .. So if we say a program will be responsible for accounting section , it will use a login_cap* function with a paramter "accounted" .. Naturally its executable binary must contain this string too . So I typed "grep -R accounted /*" and got no useful result . Now my question is : Is accounting feature of login.conf forgotten ? What should I do ? I really need the options of login.conf accounting part like limiting users time per day , or limiting number of sessions that they can have simultaneously .. I am an admin and asked to set it up and I am in the strip between live and death ;-) Thanks for your answers in advance !!!

(this was after a install src dist from CD). If I CVSup src-all should I not get ALL the source? I dunno why /usr/share has been tampered with - it certainly is none of my making. I believe that perhaps as a part of a cleanup before make world this has gone? Yesterday, I CVSup'ed and actually got a make world to go through, but the kernel I then built did not boot. It was somewhat smaller than my other kernel. Happily I could swap back to kernel.old. I really want to learn how to do this.

Final changes are being committed every day, sometimes every hour. I had the tree break once, then someone on the team corrected something, and an hour later it worked fine. Here is my plan: CVSup every few days so the final CVSup for the 3.4 release won't take as long (it's spread out over several days.. ) BUT.... wait for the official release announcement to build world. Or, build world as often as you want, but you can only install it if everything works that day.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello. I installed FreeBSD with the main intent to use it as a gateway/firewall between my LAN and the Internet. I choose 3.3-RELEASE and set up everything on a 486-based machine running at 66 MHz with 16 MB or RAM, but I wasn't able to get connected to my ISP. I read the FAQ, the HandBook, the man pages, the Pedantic PPP Primer, some RFCs and anything else I was able to find, but I didn't get out of it. I asked my ISP, but after one month the only thing they were able to suggest was to upgrade my system. So I'm asking for help here as a last resort before switching to Linux, which is known to work with my ISP, although I think it wouldn't run as smoothly as this devil doing the other tasks this machine has to do. I've tried both kernel pppd and user-level ppp, with similar results: the modem connects and finishes its handshake, then the game is up to LCP which for some reason either doesn't terminate or fails to start the next layer. I'm reporting both logs in the hope someone can make something out of it. My best choice would be ppp, due to its built-in nat and filtering capabilities, but if that is not possible I'm prepared to revert to pppd. In case it matters, this box works right on the LAN side, since it correctly provides DNS, DHCP, WINS and SMB to the other stations I have.

(if not, visit http://freebsd.lanfear.com/howtos/frontpage.html) One issue that is not discussed: If you create a new virtual web, AND you make yourself the administrator, AND you give the fpsrvadm.exe program the same password that you use on your Win32 machine, THEN fp will automatically log you on using your Win32 log in and password. To test if this is the problem, open the fp virtual web and then click on tools -> security. Change your FrontPage password or remove yourself from the permissions list, exit fp, restart fp and you will probably need to enter a password. You can also have someone on a different machine/different log in name open the web using fp. Chances are, they'll have to use a password. I hope this helps.

All that shutdown -k does is to be loud to all users that are currently logged in, create /etc/nologin, and then exit.

Sorry for taking so long to reply back, been busy. Anyway, without seeing actual output it's hard to say what might be going on. It could be anything from a simple misconfiguration of the card (IRQ conflict) or the card could be bad (I've seen a few myself). Please reply back with the output of: ifconfig -a dmesg | grep -i mx uname -a We'll go forward from there. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 6.5i iQA/AwUBOFfplHkOgeFubyAgEQJz7gCeN7t4jSsqcxwUu81CDBDvSnXHzA0AoKP5 AQWEeqkx535HegugH97C9Yuq =oIZ1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 15 11:22:15 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from eraser.unx.nu (eraser.unx.nu [194.22.185.6]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A650E155D6 for ; Wed, 15 Dec 1999 11:22:09 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jo@spider.unx.nu) Received: from localhost (jo@localhost) by eraser.unx.nu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id UAA11210; Wed, 15 Dec 1999 20:22:00 +0100 Date: Wed, 15 Dec 1999 20:21:59 +0100 (CET) From: Joakim Ryden X-Sender: jo@eraser.unx.nu To: "Frank J.

The code above is part of a conftest.c which is created when running ./configure for gnu tar-1.13. I was confused by the output ... checking for working mktime... no ... and extracted the failing code from conftest.c and added the printf() statements for better diagnosis. The original conftest.c does a number of tests and fails if the mktime() returns -1. For better understanding, the original conftest.c is now appended below. > > Does "POSIX.1" say this should succeed ? Well, I don't know.

The automatic >calculation of partitions under freebsd leads to unuseable mail and print >spool systems in practice. Hear, hear. And while we're at it, has anyone else added a bunch of memory to their system and then realized that their (default) swap partition was way too small? I vote for the auto-sized swap to be a function both of amount of memory and *size of disk*, so that if you have a "big" disk, then you get extra of swap even if you only have, say, 16MB of memory while installing. For example, what if the default size of a swap partition was (memsize * 2) * max(1, disksize / 1G) (rounded up appropriately), where the scale factor is 1 for disks 1GB or less in size, but magnified linearly above that size?

The flags mentioned do two things(two both the master and the slave on the controller). The 'a'(8+2+1) is a combination of a few flag for enabling 32bit disk access, DMA and LBA for disk transfers. The 'ff' indicates the max number of i/o buffers that can be read/written at once. If this is a really bad summary of what is really going on, someone please correct me and/or present it in a little clearer manner. Thanks!

No, it won't unless you ask it to do so. During the installation procedure you'll get asked if you want a new MBR installed? You'd better answer "no" there ;) On the other hand, saving the MBR, along with the boot sector of all the partitions on a backup disk, i.e. a floppy is always a good idea. I don't know how this can be done in NT 4.0 though. I always keep a bootable CD handy, and a floppy with the boot sectors of my disks *before* any installation begins. Has certainly saved me from a lot of trouble at times. Ciao. -- Giorgos Keramidas, "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

Linux calls it ffs, so: mount -t ffs /dev/hdaX /mnt/FreeBSD where hdaX is the partition where freeBSD resides. or add the line: /dev/hdaX /mnt/FreeBSD ffs defaults in your /etc/fstab file to mount FreeBSD at boot time.

FreeBSD supports ext2fs, or at least 3.3 does.  You need to = add
 
options "EXT2FS"
 
to the kernel, and then use
 
mount_ext2fs /dev/driveslice /mnt/linux
or
mount -t ext2fs /dev/driveslice /mnt/linux
 
to mount the drive

I modified the isa.h file to reflect the card's correct I/O address for COM3, made the corresponding entries in the kernel configuration file for COM3 with the correct IRQ and flags 0x20000 entry. The board is recognized on boot up but when I "cu -l /dev/cuaa0 -s 1200" (or any speed) the whole system stops dead. No multi screens, no breaking out, can't ping the machine. Only a front panel reset starts the machine again. Any thoughts on the cause? I'm not sure what your IIRC comment is referring to.

I had awful performance on my system (10Mbps interface) both in FreeBSD and NT environment when I set full duplex on my cards - something like 30 times slower.

I was referring to the 0x20000 flags necessary to enable 16650 support in the sio driver, without which it won't take advantage of the special features (like the larger FIFO). The overclocked speed (on my card anyway) is entirely transparent to FreeBSD, which simply opens the port at the specified speed, and the hardware multiplier takes care of bumping the speed. Personally, I'd be inclined to leave the source alone and use the userconfig interface to enable sio2/COM3 and set the address. If the address doesn't change, you get to play with the Forth stuff to add commands in '/boot/kernel.conf' so you don't need to do it every time you re-start. Does the card respond to Plug'n'Pray probes? Did you cold-boot or warm-boot the machine after getting the address from DOS?

The problem is _not_ a.out vs. ELF, because FreeBSD can run ELF binaries for a long time, including 2.2.8. The problem is that 3.3 has different (newer) libraries than 2.2.8. I haven't actually tried this myself, but it should be possible to copy the libs from 2.2.8 to your 3.3 machine (if you don't already have them), and then tell the compiler to use those, and not to use the standard system libraries (-nostdlib). You then have to specify the 2.2.8 libc explicitely, and probably crt1.o, too.

See below. > Why doesn't the following? > > set prompt = "'whoami'@'hostname -s':$cwd# " > > I keep getting for example: > > 'whoami'@'hostname':/etc# _ You're getting the exec elements spelled out (whoami and hostname) because you've used the wrong quotation marks. When you want to exec something in this fashion, you need to use "backticks" ( ` ). So, instead of 'whoami', you should use `whoami`. AND, you've also hit on another important point with your use of $cwd. Since your prompt is set in your .cshrc file, it is set only when you log in, and is not changed after each command. Therefore, if you ran your .cshrc script while you were in /etc, your prompt is always going to say /etc. :-) Try the following instead (this is actually very similar to what I use): set prompt = "`whoami`@`hostname -s`:`pwd`# " alias cd 'cd \!* ; set prompt = "`whoami`@`hostname -s`:`pwd`# "' alias pushd 'cd \!* ; set prompt = "`whoami`@`hostname -s`:`pwd`# "' alias popd 'popd ; set prompt = "`whoami`@`hostname -s`:`pwd`# "' You may not use pushd and popd (yet), but they've been included for completeness. Suffice to say, everytime you change directories with cd, pushd, or popd, your prompt will be refreshed. For user accounts, you may want to replace the # with a $ to differentiate between userland and the super user. (# is usually reserved for the elite, and represents a true symbol of power :-) Hope this helps, - Ryan --- Ryan Thompson 50% Owner, Technical and Accounts Phone: +1 (306) 664-1161 SaskNow Technologies http://www.sasknow.com #106-380 3120 8th St E Saskatoon, SK S7H 0W2 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 15 22:57:16 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from indigo.external.org (indigo.external.org [209.224.118.250]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E923F14F13 for ; Wed, 15 Dec 1999 22:57:10 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jeremy@external.org) Received: from localhost (jeremy@localhost) by indigo.external.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id WAA82116 for ; Wed, 15 Dec 1999 22:56:42 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from jeremy@external.org) Date: Wed, 15 Dec 1999 22:56:41 -0600 (CST) From: Jeremy Shaffner To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Bad drivers?

I'll forward any replies sent to myself, but CC him if you can. --------- Forwarded message --------- Date: Thu, 16 Dec 1999 06:51:27 -0000 From: Cliff Rowley To: lazarus@external.org Subject: Bad drivers? Greetings. I've searched high and low for a solution to my woes, but I've so far been far from fruitful. To start with, I went out and bought a NetGear fast ethernet kit to replace my now somewhat incapable 10baseT network setup. The pack contained 2 NetGear FA310TX 10/100 NIC's, and a DS104 4 port auto-sensing dual speed 10/100 hub. I installed one card in my Windows 98 box, and one in my FreeBSD 3.4-RC box, using the pn Lite-On 82c168/82c169 driver as suggested by LINT and `man pn`, and began to run a few tests. I tested transferring an 8MB file from one side of the two computer (via hub) network to the other, and back again, and found some alarming results. Going from FreeBSD to Windows is great. The 8MB transfer happened in less than 2 seconds - exactly what I expected. Then I reversed the direction. The transfer rate from Windows to FreeBSD peaked at about 500kb/s, and took a little over 20 seconds. This is not what I expected. I then rebooted the freebsd machine into Windows (dual boot), and tested from Windows to Window. The transfer rates were excellent. Just as expected - same results both ways. So this narrows it down to one of three things. My setup, the driver, or a simple incompatibility. I've since checked and re-checked my setup for anything that appears to be wrong, and found nothing. My exact card and chipset is mentioned not only in the manpage, but also in the driver source, so it cant be a non-support issue. After a frustrating, and fruitless search for answers, I turned to reading the source for the pn driver for some clues. A few bugs in the PNIC chipset are mentioned, but only under a high load, and not too common. Not what I was looking for. I decided that maybe the pn driver is just incomplete, and not fully functional, and that the best thing I could do would be to return the kit, and buy another using a different driver. Today I bought a LinkSys equivalent to the kit I had just returned. Two LinkSys LNE100TX Revision D 10/100 NIC's (LinkSys Chipset), and a LinkSys E2HUB04 straight 100BaseTX 4 port hub. I am experiencing exactly the same problems as with the NetGear kit, but this time I am using the mx driver (where my new card is mentioned). Can anyone shed any light on this at all? I really dont get it. I'm under a very, very tight deadline, and I've already lost 2 days work through this, I have network hardware testing to do, and I cannot do it until my network is fully 100BaseTX capable. I will be returning the LinkSys kit today, and I will be ordering two 3Com 3C905C-TX-M 10/100 NIC's, and another NetGear DS104 4 port auto-sensing dual speed 10/100 hub (it's all I can afford if I am to buy the 3Com cards). The problem with this is that (a) it will take another 2 days until I recieve them, and (b) it's inches away from Christmas, and it wont be a particularly eventful one if I have to shell out on more expensive equipment as well as lose another 2 days work. I am hoping that anyone who is reading this will be able to shed some light on the situation, and perhaps offer any hints or tips they may have. Anything that may even spark a thought that will lead me in the right direction - any help at all will be very much appreciated. Both cards in both situations on both OS's were running at 100BaseTX half-duplex. I have also tried peer to peer with xover cable, with the same results. Incidentally, I have also tried swapping all the cables. The entire network in both situations was entirely different, except for the machines attached to it.

Check, if you can reach sendmail from other hosts by with a telnet session to your SMTP port (telnet your.hosts.fqdn [smtp|25]) and look if it doesn't hear for you. Which recipients are test mails addresses to? For example, if you haven't configured sendmail.cw properly, your host would be foo.bar.tlh, but you it isn't reachable also as bar.tlh. OTOH, you say you get them back with ``host unknown'' - check for the name server of the machine your sending from if it can resolve an MX record for the host/domain part of your recipients address. Did you wait long enough to let world know of your DNS entries? When you can reach the host foo.bar.tlh by IP but cannot direct mail to it, it has often to do with DNS setup, otherwise your host would have sent back that mail (what do those headers look like?) How did you specify the MX records in your zone configuration? For example, something like foo IN A a.b.c.d IN MX 10 foo in a zone configuration for bar.tlh will resolve to MX record = foo.bar.tlh, where foo IN A a.b.c.d IN MX 10 foo.other.tlh would resolve to MX record = foo.other.tlh.bar.tlh, where foo IN A a.b.c.d IN MX 10 foo.other.tlh. will do what you expect (MX = foo.other.tlh) - you see the difference?

There was the discussion about one risk with softupdates a while ago: when a disk runs out of space and you're deleting files and during that putting more on it, the space will get free but the meta data isn't written fast enough and there could some situation happen where the file system looks full although it isn't really - and the result was a possible kernel panic with reboot and data loss. Now for the positive part: I'm using softupdates on several machines at work (about 8-10 machines) and at home and never experienced any difficulties, any kernel panic or any data loss, although there's always some even more heavy disk activity like making the world. As I usually use small root file systems (40-50 mbytes), I never activate softupdates for them because most of the data on it will normally only be read and read again and again, but it's almost static (configuration at /etc, binaries in /bin and /sbin and such things), so there will be no real performance gain with softupdates. For security reasons, I decided to leave them from root - with that problem I described above and such little root file systems, this could happen earlier than on a /var or /tmp or something like that where there is pretty much spare space :-) Regards, Martin -- /| /| | /| / ,,You know, there's a lot of opportunities, / |/ | artin |/ |/ elk if you're knowing to take them, you know, there's a lot of opportunities, Freiberg/Saxony, Germany if there aren't you can make them, mw@sax.de / mw@theatre.sax.de make or break them!''

Hmm, the question was where are these options described? I've come up with same question several times, but haven't bothered to ask. Source only?

To provide more information the setup, I plugged in some answers below: >> I have sendmail allowed in /etc/hosts.allow. I have mx records in all the >> name databases. I have O'Reilly's sendmail book on order, and it should be >> here tomorrow :) Any other places I should start looking? Does DNS have to >> be expressly permitted in /etc/hosts.allow?

Yes, and if I make any configuration changes, I give it a kill -1 just to make sure. >Check, if you can reach sendmail from other hosts by with a telnet session >to your SMTP port (telnet your.hosts.fqdn [smtp|25]) and look if it doesn't >hear for you. I have telnet 'permanently' disabled on this box - don't really trust. it. To run the test though, I enabled it, and was able to telnet in from one of the upstream nameservers (belonging to the university). From there, I successfully ran the short test on pg 467 of The Complete FreeBSD v.2. Seemed to all work ok - the test mail was delivered locally. >Which recipients are test mails addresses to? For example, if you haven't >configured sendmail.cw properly, your host would be foo.bar.tlh, but you >it isn't reachable also as bar.tlh. Locally, I tried sending mail to me@foo.bar and me@machine.foo.bar. Both worked. I had a friend on the west coast try to send mail to both addresses. Both failed. >OTOH, you say you get them back with ``host unknown'' - check for the >name server of the machine your sending from if it can resolve an MX >record for the host/domain part of your recipients address. Did you >wait long enough to let world know of your DNS entries? It's been about 2 weeks now, actually. Since I was just setting things up, I set the expiry at 3 days, and I get warnings that "your SOA expiry is less than 7 days", but it still runs and resolves just fine. >When you can reach the host foo.bar.tlh by IP but cannot direct mail >to it, it has often to do with DNS setup, otherwise your host would >have sent back that mail (what do those headers look like?) I just tried to email directly to me@ip, and this is the error message back: ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- ----- Transcript of session follows ----- 550 ... Host unknown (Name server: insert.my.ip.here: host not found) Something else I found interesting... apparently, while mail delivery was being attempted, I got the following line in /var/log/messages: Dec 16 09:42:31 merlin sshd[60534]: DNS lookup failed for "207.103.119.114". I tried to do an nslookup from both my machine, and the uni's name server, and both failed to do a lookup. That 207.103.x.x is also not part of the university's domain. >How did you specify the MX records in your zone configuration? Did that as explained in O'Reilly's bind & DNS book: machine IN A 1.2.3.4 mail IN CNAME merlin ; mail services ns IN CNAME merlin ; Name service foo.bar. IN MX 10 machine.foo.bar ; mail And well, there's an immediate problem... I forgot the bloomin "." at the end of the machine.foo.bar which is most likely screwing SOMETHIGN up =) Lo and behold, when I go back and reread the error messages on the rejected mail, it references no host name machine.foo.bar.foo.bar. Grrr. :) OK, so that error is fixed, assuming that if I make the last line look like: foo.bar. IN MX 10 machine.foo.bar. ; mail it will be ok? Given that I made that correction on my primary NS, which is the one referenced by internic, do I need to give 3 days (the expiry time) for it to filter thru? Or should somethign like this be "immediate"? To respond to Alfred's point: >you need to add these additional machine names to /etc/sendmail.cw >or /etc/mail/sendmail.cw check /etc/sendmail.cf to figure out which. Hopefully I can do that tonight as soon as I have the sendmail book in hand to read more intelligently. So far I've only been working off various online dox and the online sendmail info. As it stands right now, i have an /etc/sendmail.cw that reads: domain1.com domain2.com domain3.com host.name.that.the.uni.gave.me.months.ago.edu domains 1,2, and 3 are the three that I registered and need to support mail for. I'm assuming (so far) that this is the correct format of the file. Thanks again all!!!!

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I am not subscribed to: "freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG" list. Please reply directly if you are answering from that list. Where can I get info on Dual Booting WindowsNT and FreeBSD using the NT Boot manager. I got some info from FreeBSDDiary and some info about booting Linux dual with NT but I cannot figure out how to translate the info to work with FreeBSD. I have a single 9Gb SCSI drive with three partitions: 2+Gb NTFS (C: Drive) 3Gb NTFS (D: Drive) 3+Gb FreeBSD I have recorded the MBR for NT and for FreeBSD in two files located on the C: drive. If I copy the FreeBSD mbr-file to the MBR, FreeBSD will boot fine. If I copy WinNT mbr-file to the MBR, WinNT boot loader will startup fine. I added in the suggested line pointing to the FreeBSD mbr-file on the C: drive but when I tell NT to load it, NT fails but it looks like it was trying to load NT. Is my problem because my C: drive is NTFS??? If so, Is there any way around this? Thanks in Advance!!! Especially the people on the WashDC list.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm trying to bring up a new server with 4 Maxtor 40GB disks, and am having some problems. I belive they have to do with geometry, but I'm not real sure. The motherboard is an Asus P3B-F. When I first tried to install, the install program complained about the geometry, so I entered the geometry information as it is stated on the disk. On the first disk, I created a 1.5GB partition for /, 100MB for swap, and the rest in one big partition. The other disks were all individual large partitions. Went through the install, and I checked the status of the newfs by checking out the VC on F2, and I would see it fail right around 8000000 (which I presume is close to the end). The install program would then say it couldn't mount the partition. This happened for all of the large partitions, but / was ok and 3.3 was installed fine. Upon bootup, I get BAD SUPER BLOCK and MAGIC NUMBER WRONG for the large filesystems. I'm unsure how to proceed. Any suggestions?

I have an old 486 (~100MB, 8MB RAM) gathering dust in the corner of my room. FreeBSD seems ideal to put it to some use. After some lengthy navigation around your site I finally got to download fdimage and bootfl~1.fl. I could only download this through IE5.0 into a directory in Win95 and then fdimage it to floppy afterwards, (I have no DOS FTP access). After following the instructions I checked the disk and it is blank ,or, seems to be blank. Is there anything wrong with this procedure?

If you used fdimage correctly, that should work fine. Since it's not a DOS disk, and Windows is pretty stupid when it comes to other file systems, it thinks it's a blank disk and wants to format it.

For example, one of my IDE drives becomes different with and without LBA. In CHS mode, BIOS reports 3298*16*63=3324384 geometry, and FreeBSD detects 3324384 sectors total. In LBA mode, BIOS reports 824*64*63=3322368 geometry, but FreeBSD detects 3324996 sectors!!! As you can see, using LBA mode gives me 612 "additional" sectors. Note, that you could turn on LBA mode only for "unformatted" drives, without existing filesystems. Changing the drive's current mode will certainly mess it up.

Well, I'm still not seeing this, so it's probably something funny in your compile setup. I notice a bunch of nonstandard things in your compile: you're doing O2 optimization, you have -m486 and defined FDSETSIZE. I can't see how any of those would be a problem, but they do indicate that you've modified your compile environment. 'skeyaccess' is in libskey, and rad_strerror is in libradius. It sounds like you're compiling pam with options that you're not using on login. However that's happening, it's probably related to something you customized. One thing you might want to check is /etc/make.conf. You may not have merged the /etc changes yet, and there may be something that changed in make.conf. [I don't recall whether there was, and a quick browse of the web-based copy of the cvs tree doesn't show me anything that might be related, although it does remind me that some of the differences between your build and mine may be because my make.conf is more up to date...] Good luck.

I tried the 3.3 floppies on an old machine that doesn't have a CDROM, and got the error "Can't find /mfsroot" after switching to the second floppy. If the exact same thing happened to you, maybe my solution will work: I made a copy of the first floppy (kern.flp), mounted it, and in the file /boot/loader.rc I inserted the line "set currdev=disk0:" just before the line "load -t mfs_root /mfsroot". After this change it booted without problems. I still really don't know *why* this was needed, it was pure trial and error on my part actually. But I'd guess that there is some problem with the naming conventions for the floppy file system. -- Björn Danielsson KTHNOC / Swedish University Network (mail me for my real e-mail address) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 16 10:44: 2 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.whittman-hart.com (mail.whittman-hart.com [206.215.24.97]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id B56C715590 for ; Thu, 16 Dec 1999 10:44:00 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jjbock@enteract.com) Received: from shell-1.enteract.com ([207.229.143.40]) by mail.whittman-hart.com (Lotus SMTP MTA v4.6.5 (863.2 5-20-1999)) with SMTP id 86256849.00668F14; Thu, 16 Dec 1999 12:40:13 -0600 Date: Thu, 16 Dec 1999 12:43:32 -0600 (CST) From: To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: where's the compaq raid support in 3.3?

You need to compile a kernel with the ida device in it and copy that to your kern.flp boot floppy. Add the following to your copy of the GENERIC config and make the new kernel: # # Compaq Intelligent Disk Array Controller # controller ida0 at isa? bio irq ? vector idaintr disk id0 at ida0 drive 0 disk id1 at ida0 drive 1 disk id2 at ida0 drive 2 disk id3 at ida0 drive 3 # Warning: # This driver can be configured to steal the ide devsw[] entries # so the IDE driver must also be present. If this behaviour is used, # the system will be unable to get to IDE drives. This is to allow # systems to boot off the IDA array, while thinking they are booting off # an IDE drive. (The boot blocks only know about IDE and SCSI). # # To disable this behaviour, the following line should be used. # Do this is you wish to boot of a different device. #options IDA_CUCKOO_MODE=0 Stick your kern.flp floppy into the floppy drive, mount it, gzip the kernel you compile with the ida driver in it, copy the kernel.gz to the floopy. mount -t ufs /dev/fd0 /mnt gzip kernel cp kernel.gz /mnt umount /mnt That should do it. I can ellaborate more later if you still have problems. Good luck!

I'd like to remove qmail and use natd to have Internet servers connect _directly_ to the private smtp server (due to strangely=20 corrupted e-mails...another issue). ...(and have the private smtp server connect to Internet servers...) My idea was to use natd and redirect the port on the public interface to the private interface. I've found numerous how-to's and much informatio= n from grog's book (a very good reference, I might add). The problem is I cannot connect to the private server on port 25 from an external public ip (Internet) machine. I _can_ connect via telnet from the firewall to the private server on port 25, so I reason it is not the firewall rules--in fact the rules are = currently wide-open for testing. I am requesting another set of eyes for help in determining what I am missing. A Xmas gift will be on its way in return :). Here are the = details. This is FreeBSD 3.4-RC. kernel has been compiled with: options IPFIREWALL options IPDIVERT BTW, the kernel boots with: IP packet filtering initialized, divert enabled, rule-based forwarding = disabled, logging limited to 100 packets/entry by default Question: What does 'rule-based forwarding disabled' mean? Is there an kernel option for it? An excerpt of /etc/rc.conf has: natd_enable=3D"YES" natd_interface=3D"fxp0" natd_options=3D"-f /etc/natd.conf" gateway_enable=3D"YES" defaultrouter has been set (and works, that is, I can browse sites and DNS works as well from the firewall) /etc/natd.conf contains: log yes #next is for testing verbose yes redirect_port tcp 192.168.83.9:25 25 redirect_port udp 192.168.83.9:25 25 My /etc/rc.firewall _only_ has (for testing purposes): /sbin/ipfw -f flush /sbin/ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via fxp0 /sbin/ipfw add pass all from any to any The outside (public) interface is fxp0, and the inside (private) interface is fxp1. When I go to another machine and telnet to the public interface at port 25, the firewall and natd indicate: In [TCP] [TCP] requesting_machine_ip:1079 -> public_interface_ip:25 \ aliased to [TCP] requesting_machine_ip:1079 -> 192.168.83.9:25 Okay, that looks good, but the telnet 'requesting_machine' never connects to private machine serving smtp. I can, though, telnet from the firewall = to 192.168.83.9 on port 25. After reading all the mail archives at freebsd.org, man page on natd, and how-tos and so on, I thought I got it right. Am I using natd incorrectly? I assume I have not held-my-tongue-just-right while standing on one-leg while typing, chanting wizard spells, and crossing-my-eyes. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The allscreens_flags will work on *all* your ttyv's only for some settings, such as video mode. Some other flags (like fg & bg color) only work on ttyv0. If you want to enable them on your other ttyv's you have to switch to each one manually and change it using vidcontrol. If you take a look at the vidcontrol source, some settings are changed through ioctl calls while others are changed by sending ansi escapes to the output (because ioctl entries don't exist for those particular settings). So, the allscreens_flags will work on all ttyv's only for those settings that vidcontrol changes through ioctl calls. Off course, most people use X so, it isn't a particularly offensive problem, but it is annoying. Does anyone know what it would take to add the relevant ioctl entries?

If linux tries to mount a bsd partition as ext2fs (which can happen by recompiling the linux kernel and changing the way it counts partitions within the bsd partition), it will trash the bsd partition table. *if* you know where your slices were, you can reset them with the installation program (and I assume fdisk) and have them back.

I see that SuSE does a good job in Germany. SuSE Linux is nowadays offered by large purchasers and mail-order-houses like Comtech (a large country-wide PC hardware vendor) or Conrad Elektronik (a large mail-order-house selling electronic components, hardware, consumer electronics etc.) Transtec, an approved hardware vendor offering anything from traditional UNIX workstation accessories to printers and PC hardware, sells Intel Linux servers ready to use SuSE Linux. On the one hand, I welcome this trend. Some years ago, commercial vendors seemed to move exclusively to the Windows systems. On the other hand, I would much more like to see FreeBSD in that context than SuSE Linux (especially *SuSE* Linux since this distribution frightens everyone with some real Unix experience).

They have a front page article (last time i checked) that had reviews of several new Linux distros, inc SuSE. I think SuSE is looked at as being good for servers and SMP support, but otherwise a little behind the times.

Netcomm modems (common in OZ & maybe elsewhere too) come in several "grades" .... for some reason that escapes me the lowest one has the "call answer" facility disabled by default and I've never seen it enabled totally sucessfully using the relevant AT command. Maybe the modem you have is a similar "consumer grade" one and the manufacturers had the same idea that users would never want to use a "call answer" facility ... might be worth asking them anyway :) A second issue thats turned up here lately is the latest generation of external WebExcel modems (the shiny sorta chrome plated things that look like the designer also does UFO design in his spare time) ..... they DON'T like long term connections & overheat badly after a few hours causing all sorts of weird connection issues. The problem appears to be caused by lack of ventilation & the best solution is to return it to whence it came and ask for a different brand that will work on a permanent modem service. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike Makonnen" To: Sent: Friday, December 17, 1999 5:43 AM Subject: Re: help about dialup server > I believe your problem is that your modem is not set > to auto-answer incomming calls.

Probably the only operating system (other than Microsoft) seeing a commercial thrust here is the dreaded RedHat, which is seen advertized more and more in junk mail / newspaper inserts / computer retail stores & even K-Mart. There are quite a few unix related mailing lists, typically asssociated with some university or other, but even here there seems to be a definite leaning toward the linuxes :( ..... thankfully at least some of the "mexicans" have seen the light as there are at least a couple active FreeBSD groups in Sydney & Melbourne ----- Original Message ----- From: "Konrad Heuer" To: Sent: Friday, December 17, 1999 6:34 AM Subject: Observations from Germany > > Hi everyone, > > one question of high interest for me (and I think for the open source > community) is about what vendors and purchasers offer. > > I see that SuSE does a good job in Germany.

Since you're running 3.x you should just use the file /boot/boot1 thus: # cp /boot/boot1 /FBSD.MBR Then copy FBSD.MBR to C:. I'm not sure how you're doing this as your drive C: is NTFS and FreeBSD's NTFS driver is read-only (well, OK, it has limited write support, but I wouldn't risk it on a production box). Maybe it's because C: is NTFS that you're having problems, but I can't think of any reason why. > Attempt #3 for the BSD's responds: [< this is the one all the material I read said to use] > > Boot error > [Hitting after this takes you back to OS Loader V4.00 > where I can choose again what OS config to load...] > > Attempt #2 for the BSD's responds: > > OS Loader V4.01 > > Windows NT could not start because of a computer disk hardware > configuration problem. > Could not read from the selected boot disk.

It seems you want to stripe, in which case yes, you won't get optimum performance, but given the small difference in size, I don't see that the loss will be measurable. If you want to play it really safe, make the partitions the same size (i.e. drop 2 cylinders from your first disk). Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

However, if it's off long enough, off goes the computer, and when it comes back on, the computer doesn't start back up again. Is there any way to set it so that it will? Thanks! marc.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have an old laptop (486 SX 33 with 4 MB RAM and 755MB HDD) on which i would like to put FreeBSD. The PCMCIA-ethernet card I have with it (some ne 2000 clone) is not recognized by the generic kernel on the 2.1.7 version of FreeBSD, the last one, as far as I know, that installs with only 4 MB. So I will have to install over plip or take the harddisk out and put FreeBSD on it in a desktop PC (I have the bracket thing). My question is: which version should I install? 2.1.7.1 (which may or may not, I cannot find out, support my PCMCIA ethernet card) or a recent version, say 3.3 (or .4), which will be able to deal with the card, AFAIK, without problems? Will a recent version *really* run on 4 MB?? Please, don't tell me to buy more RAM. I've tried to get it at a reasonable price without success. This laptop needs the card type of RAM upgrade (Toshiba), which is not to be had here second hand. TIA!

I think you most likely have a bad MFSroot floppy, try doing a DOS format on both disks you made and re-make the install disks if they format ok. currently the installer can't tolerate disks with bad sectors. > A complete reboot happens...Computer counts memory and then comes > up with the following message/prompt > > >> FreeBSD/i386 Boot > Default: 0fd(0,a)? > boot: > > There is no information in the DOCs as to what I should do at > this point.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Greetings everyone, I'm wondering if anyone knows of a way of either 1) implementing aggregate quotas, or 2) working out a problem with FTP that's causing me to possibly want to do #1. The situation is like this: I've got a machine with 2 9-gig hard drives, mounted as /home1 and /home2. Most of the user directories are on /home1, and a few are on /home2. Since /home2 has the most free space, I thought I'd put /ftp there as well (i.e. /ftp is a symlink to /home2/ftp). This works fine, except when it comes to quotas. Since most user directories are on /home1, their quotas are also applied to space in use on /home1, and they have no quota on /home2, and could potentially put as much junk there as they wanted to, and never go over quota. I could have separate quotas for each user for /home1 and 2, but then I'd either have to divide the quota between the two volumes (which never works out right, since some users don't use much FTP space at all, and some use at on), or give them their regular quota on each volume (effectively doubling their space allotment), neither of which I really want to do. At first I thought I could just create another FTP directory in /home1/ftp. However, I realized that wouldn't work either, because anonymous FTP users would be chroot'd to see /home2/ftp as just /, and wouldn't be able to get to /home1/ftp. So, what I'm looking for is one of the following: 1) A way of implementing aggregate quotas, which a friend of mine said would allow you to have a single quota across multiple volumes, but he didn't know of an implementation of it for FreeBSD; or 2) A better solution to the FTP directory issue. If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears (eyes?).

AFAIR, the native FreeBSD binaries are in the older a.out binary format which is only supported by FreeBSD 3.x, when you have the compat22 distribution (a.out shared libraries) installed. It looks like it's that what's missing. If you're planning to use the Adobe Acrobat Reader plug-in and/or the Macromedia Flash plug-in (both unfortunately only available for Linux), you need the linux_base port (is there a package?) which is a set of original Red Hat shared libraries and utilities for using Linux binaries on FreeBSD and the Netscape Communicator/Navigator binary for Linux. That altogether runs fine :-) To install compat22, look at /stand/sysinstall. > P.S. Also, any sort of GUI for kernel configurartion? Sorry, not yet.

It works flawlessly - I tried to look through for mail carefully but didn't find anything, sorry. Please add a ``log'' parameter to your firewall rules and look where the packets go and how they look like (and you can give us some useful excerpt from it, I mean, what happens to the packet(s) on their way?) You could even tcpdump -i fxp1 to see which packets go through that net. I think the packets coming back from your internal SMTP server don't pass natd, because you do divert those packets if they go via fxp0. A private nework (10.0/8, 172.I.was.to.lazy.to.look.in./etc/hosts, 192.168/16) should never be routed to the outer world, maybe that's the simple reason.

Your mail setup is broken, most lines have no breaks before within a length going over 3-4 lines on a more-than-80-characters-width-xterm. However, that reboot isn't part of the program.

You need to set up natd and the ipfirewall code, and an interface based routing entry. For a start, look into the man pages for natd(4), ipfw(4), ipfirewall(4), divert(4) and dummynet(4) - you don't really need what's described within the last one, but it gives some interesting further information. The most important things: - build a custom kernel with IPFIREWALL and IPDIVERT - configure firewall for passing packets to natd - configure natd to listen on your outgoing interface (by interface name, not the address) and give it the ``dynamic'' option - so it looks for you if the address changes - configure the default route - something like ``route add default -interface '' Regards, Martin -- /| /| | /| / ,,You know, there's a lot of opportunities, / |/ | artin |/ |/ elk if you're knowing to take them, you know, there's a lot of opportunities, Freiberg/Saxony, Germany if there aren't you can make them, mw@sax.de / mw@theatre.sax.de make or break them!''

If it is an older Linksys LNE100TX (with a 82c168 or 82c169), do as others have suggested and use the "pn" driver. If it is a relatively new Linksys LNE100TX (v2.0; with the 82c115 PNIC II chip; this is the card that I have), you will want to use the latest rev of the appropriate branch (RELENG_3 if you are running 3.x) of the "mx" driver. PNIC II support was added between FreeBSD 3.2 and 3.3, but the driver distributed in 3.3-RELEASE has a few bugs (it sometimes incorrectly negotiates 100baseT4 leading to a kernel panic). You can get the latest driver sources from http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/pci/Attic/if_mx.c Click on the 1.8.2.9 rev for the latest (last) in RELENG_3 http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/pci/Attic/if_mxreg.h Click on the 1.2.2.5 rev for the latest (last) in RELENG_3 (only needed if you don't have 3.3-RELEASE) From the cvs logs, there also appears to be a new merged driver, "dc", that supports real Dec tulips and workalikes such as the 82c16[89] and the 82c115. It is not clear to me whether those driver sources are appropriate for 3.X (-STABLE), or if they will only work with 4.X (-CURRENT).

It feels like there is a hard limit somewhere between 27 and 27.5 GB. If I make a FS 27.5 GB large, the newfs will fail. If it's 27 GB, it works. I don't think it's a geometry problem, as it doesn't matter if it's the last 27 GB of the disk or the first 27 GB; both work. But, regardless of position on the disk, I can't create a FS larger that this limit that is somewhere between 27 and 27.5 GB. I'm guessing the limit is number of sectors/fs, but it's easier to type in bytes than in sectors. This is backed up by somebody who emailed me stating that with their 27.5 GB drive, they had to leave off the last couple of sectors to get it to work. So, is this a bug, a kernel config, or anything you recognize? And, anything I can do to fix it?

Changing the drive's current mode will > certainly mess it up. The specific difference between LBA and CHS (Cylinder/Head/Sector) is the way you address the data on the drive. In the olden days, you told the drive just what to do: position to this cylinder, select this head, and read this sector. The driver was responsible for any conversions necessary. Modern drives no longer have a fixed number of sectors per track, so the conversion calculations would become impossibly difficult. As a result, all modern drives fake the number of cylinders, heads and sectors. Internally they just use the number of the block, starting at the outside of the disk. This is what we call LBA, and all modern disk hardware supports it. As Ruslan observes, there can be roundoff errors when calculating CHS counts (who ever heard of 0.57 of a track?). There's not a significant difference in performance between LBA and CHS, but it obviously makes more sense to use LBA. In addition, there are some limitations with CHS which makes it inoperable after (I think) 32 GB. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

On windows NT 4.0, I can't be of much help, since I do not have a box with NT installed. But even if I had one, my knowledge of NT would be far from adequate to help you with that. On FreeBSD, where my disk is separated in 4 primary slices (what the DOS world calls partitions), it's as simple as doing: # mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt # dd if=/dev/rwd0 of=/mnt/rwd0 count=1 bs=512 # dd if=/dev/rwd0s1 of=/mnt/rwd0s1 count=1 bs=512 # dd if=/dev/rwd0s2 of=/mnt/rwd0s2 count=1 bs=512 # dd if=/dev/rwd0s3 of=/mnt/rwd0s3 count=1 bs=512 # dd if=/dev/rwd0s4 of=/mnt/rwd0s4 count=1 bs=512 Then, if the disk gets screwed up during installation, I usually boot with a bootable cdrom and restore these by swapping if= and of= parts of the command line(s). -- Giorgos Keramidas, "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

The FS _may_ be prone to corruption in rare circumstances Haven't experienced that (and we're using soft-updates on a lot of boxes, some of which are under quite some load). However, there are two points to consider: - When files are revode, their space is not marked as free immediately, but after some "sync period" when the metadata is written back to disk. This can be up to 30 seconds (you can watch this with "df"). This can be a problem when you do a "make installword", for instance, and your root filesystem doesn't have enough space to hold twice the stuff in /bin and /sbin -- It will just run out of space, and you could end up without having a /bin/sh anymore or something like that, which is a bad thing, of course. Even worse, there have been reports that the system could crash (panic) if the space on a soft-updates-enabled file- system overflowed. I don't know if this problem has been fixed (never happened to me anyway). For the above reasons, it is in general recommended _not_ to enable soft-updates on your root filesystem. It wouldn't help much anyway, because there are usually not many write accesses to that filesystem (provided that you have /var and /tmp separately, of course, which is always a good idea). Mounting / with the noatime option is usually enough, or even read-only if you don't mind re-mounting it each time you have to change something in /etc. - When soft-updates is enabled and the system crashes (e.g by a power failure or a kernel panic), you will lose files which have been re-written within the past 30 seconds (they will be there, but the size will be zero). Without soft-updates, there usually is still some content left from such files. > Has anyone found the system sluggish during makes (more than without > softupdates) or otherwise limited during some particular activity? I experience such slugginess once on an IDE-only system without UDMA enabled (but with soft-updates). Enabling UDMA in the wdc driver fixed it.

UFS == UNIX File System. This describes this whole family of file systems. Solaris, DEC UNIX (Tru64) and others use UFS- type file systems, too. FFS == Berkeley Fast File System, a member of the UFS family. This is FreeBSD's native file system format. MFS == Memory File System. This is basically the same as FFS, but it is used in a VM-based process instead of on disk. People often call this a "RAM disk", which is not correct, because its data does not necessarily reside in physical RAM, but also in swap space. > 2). Ext2fs vs. FreeBSD filesystem: when I mount ext2fs partition, do I > get write/read access? Yes, but the write access is somewhat alpha-quality, and it _can_ break things. If you need to move ext2fs partitions to FreeBSD, it is better to mount them read-only, then make a backup, fdisk the media to make it FFS, then restore from the backup. > Will all uids/gids will still be actual (I mean, > when resolving name for id, my /etc/passwd & group files will be used). Yes. > 4). Maybe more -hackers or -fs related questions, but, still, I am kinda > interested in FSes, so: how does FreeBSD FS compete with ext2fs? I'm slightly biased, obviously :), but I believe that FreeBSD's FFS is much better. It has less limitations (for example, a single FFS can be up to 8 Tbyte in size, that's 8000 Gbyte), and using FreeBSD's soft-updates it is faster _and_ more secure than ext2fs. > Which > one shows better performance (of course, in different cases it would be > different, such as: low disk usage, intensive disk usage, caching > strategy/algorithms, when disk is almost full (NTFS would be totaly f%cked > up here) and so on....). Any information would be appreciated. Much of what you say is not directly related to the filesystem format, but it is highly influenced by the implementation and the drivers. You can have a very slow FFS (IDE without UDMA, no soft-updates), and you can have a very fast one. > 5).

Yes, it's obviously not a filesystem bug, but maybe a bug in the disk driver.

That terminal is used to display activity and logs. It should give further hints about what exactly went wrong. (There is also a very simple command shell running on the 4th terminal.) If the error occurs for both CD and NFS installations, then the installation media is not the problem. Maybe there is a problem extracting the base files to your disk. Are you sure that you partitioned the disk correctly? In particular, is the root partition big enough? 30 Mbyte should be the minimum if /var and /tmp is on separate partitions (otherwise you'll need much more than 30 Mbyte). Does the error occur right at the start of the extraction, or are some files successfully extracted before the error occurs?

It would fail or panic or both. The messages had something to do with uncompressing the data files failing due to bad checksums or something along that line. I also tried Linux and it just panicked. I tried BSDi and it installed but only reported 128MB of memory instead of the 256 in it. Turned out to be bad memory. That's where I'd be looking on your machine. Since the install is so quick, you can try cycling through the memory chips to find the bad one(s) by removing chips and installing, swapping chips, installing, ... until you find the bad one.

When I use sysinstall to try to install the missing apps (eg kworldwatch, ktelnet), I get the error: 'kdelibs-1.0 is a required package but was not found.'

Just finished doing the same thing. I'll describe my system and the way I did things and you can go from there: 486DX2-66/20M RAM 1.1G HDD ->master on primary controller-->win95 850M HDD ->slave on primary -->FreeBSD Use Windows ftp client called NetButler to scoop FreeBSD 3.3Release from cdrom.com. I first created c:\freebsd with sub-directories that matched those at cdrom.com, e.g. c:\freebsd\bin; c:\freebsd\dict etc etc. Then I used NetButler to DL an entire directory at a time. You can set up "tasks" in NetButler each representing a directory to download. Then when you connect to cdrom.com you simply start one or more tasks. Anyway, this will get FreeBSD on your C:\ drive. As well, you need to go to the "tools" directory at cdrom.com and scoop the following: fdimage.exe; kern.flp; and mfsroot.flp and tuck them away in c:\freebsd. I wrote a reply to this list earlier today about what to do once you have the above squared away. I screwed up in the post I'm refering to using boot.flp when I meant kern.flp. If you need more assistance, contact me off the list so as to not use bandwidth on a matter that may not be of interest to many folks here on the list -- legacy stuff, don't you know! Let me know how you make out! Good Luck.....duke ps--if you go to http://www.homepageware.com/ you can get NetButler - free.

I have mx records in all the ^^^^^^^^^^ Sendmail doesn't usually get wrapped with tcp_wrappers (ie /etc/hosts.[allow|deny]) so I don't think you need to worry about putting that in there.

This makes no sense since i ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ No. You don't normally run named from inetd so therefore tcp_wrappers will not normally be wrapping named. However, if named has a compilation argument that activated tcp_wrappers as a wrapper for it then it would be susceptible to /etc/hosts.allow. This is *only* if named was compiled with tcp_wrappers included. My thinking on that is that it doesn't even use tcp_wrappers at all (I never checked). Also, remember that tcp_wrappers is for tcp traffic only and not for udp (AFAIK, please correct me if Im wrong). So tcp_wrappers wouldn't be very effective for named anyway. > > can be pinged and looked up? > >Is sendmail running? > >Check, if you can reach sendmail from other hosts by with a telnet session >to your SMTP port (telnet your.hosts.fqdn [smtp|25]) and look if it doesn't >hear for you. > >Which recipients are test mails addresses to?

Put options DDB in your kernel config, config -g your kernel, make and install it, and wait for it to hang. When it does, use CTRL-ALT-ESC to break into the debugger. Type trace , copy down the output, then do panic continue . Save the crashdump, and post the stack trace. There are instructions on this in section 22 of the handbook < http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kerneldebug.html > or your local copy. You probably should read that first.

ifconfig device alias xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 0xffffffff   <---  that is the same thing as 255.255.255.255

So if you are using an ne2000 compatible device

ifconfig ed0 alias 192.168.100.1 netmask 0xffffffff would alias 192.168.100.1 to your ed0 device.

ifconfig -a will show everything on all your devices ;)
Hope that helps.

This time, however, I think I have > more of an idea what is going on. [snip] For the sake of the mail archive, I thought I would post the solution to the problem I was having. The problem was that different .f-files had DATA statements for variables in a single COMMON block. In the simplest form, if I had a COMMON block, REAL A,B COMMON /STUFF/ A,B Like so, and then had two FORTRAN code files that referenced that COMMON block, but one file, say 'a.f,' had, DATA A /20.0/ And the other, 'b.f,' had DATA B /30.0/ I get the errors I saw. The reason for this is that in the f2c process, the _whole_ COMMON block will be initialized in each .c-file. This is not allowed. And it is good that it is not. If you somehow let it pass (our SGI FORTRAN compiler used the 'latest' definition, whatever that might mean), the COMMON block would have the value of one DATA statement and the other(s) would be clobbered. I'd like to thank everyone who tried to help on this thread, especially Kent Stewart. -- Crist J.

When posting messages to a mailing list such as this, please configure your mail client to wrap lines at 72-75 characters per line so we don't have to do it for you :-) Assuming that you actually OWN additional IPs (this won't work very well if you try to invent your own :-) Or are atleast doing this on a private subnet across a lan, add the following to your rc.conf. Assume ep0 is the interface you wish to attach the IPs to, and you own IPs 10.20.30.1 through 10.20.30.4. ifconfig_ep0="inet 10.20.30.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" # my primary IP ifconfig_ep0_alias0="10.20.30.2 netmask 255.255.255.255" # second.. ifconfig_ep0_alias1="10.20.30.3 netmask 255.255.255.255" # ... ifconfig_ep0_alias2="10.20.30.4 netmask 255.255.255.255" # ... Important things to note: Note the netmask configurations. You MUST use /32 netmasks for extra IPs in this style. Also, rc expects alias entries to go AFTER the original entry for your interface, and I believe these MUST start at 0 and go incrementally. I remember reading a comment in (I think it was) rc somewhere stating that rc's alias config would break down if the alias0...n order was broken. (unintelligent shell script :-) And, if you'd like to do this without rebooting, you can issue commands like the following: ifconfig ep0 alias 10.20.30.2 netmask 255.255.255.255 Check with ifconfig -a And... aww, heck, just read the manpage :-) --- Ryan Thompson 50% Owner, Technical and Accounts Phone: +1 (306) 664-1161 SaskNow Technologies http://www.sasknow.com #106-380 3120 8th St E Saskatoon, SK S7H 0W2 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 16 22: 2:43 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from shell.futuresouth.com (shell.futuresouth.com [198.78.58.28]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 44EF01508A for ; Thu, 16 Dec 1999 22:02:41 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from tim@futuresouth.com) Received: (from tim@localhost) by shell.futuresouth.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id AAA00611 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Fri, 17 Dec 1999 00:01:50 -0600 (CST) Date: Fri, 17 Dec 1999 00:01:50 -0600 From: Tim Tsai To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: libvgl under -stable Message-ID: <19991217000150.A29997@futuresouth.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0pre3i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I am running -STABLE and can't seem to get any libvgl program to work.

You can also put allscreens_flags="VGA_80x50" in /etc/rc.conf to set it for all console screens at boot-up. As someone pointed out yesterday, the "allscreens_flags" option only works for some vidcontrol options; you can't set fg and bg colours this way, for instance.

Ideally, I'd love to update only the programs I've got currently installed, but, I'm concerned that I'll probably forget a large class of programs and end up downloading and compiling way too much. The machines I want to update don't have oodles of space, so this is a concern. Thanks for any comments.

Your problem smells like 192.168.83.9 has no default router set, or it is set to something different than firewalling/aliasing machine. In respect to "rule-based forwarding", there is an option for enabling it, it is called IPFIREWALL_FORWARD. Please refer to the ipfw(8) page for description of this feature.

This is no wonder, because (as also the man pages for ipfw and so on say), the packets are handed over to natd and injected back into the IP stack in a way, that they will pass the ruleset of the IP firewall again, except for the divert rule they already passed. As you enabled logging for the divert rule only (and not for the allow rule which may be a compiled in kernel default, but you can add an equal rule with a lower line number and the log parameter manually before the default rule), you won't see any log of the outgoing packet. > The /var/log/messages had this when I was telnet'ing from > public.ip.10 to public.ip.8 port 25: > > date time hostname /kernel: ipfw: 100 Divert 8668 TCP public.ip.10:1082 > public.ip.8:25 in via fxp0 > > date time hostname /kernel: ipfw 100 Divert 8668 TCP public.ip.10:1082 > 192.168.83.9:25 out via fxp0 > > But still the telnet timed out (Unable to connect to remote host: > Operation timed out). Hm, it would have been interesting to see if there's anything coming back from that other machine. > So I tried to telnet from the firewall machine to 192.168.83.9 port 25. > Eeech, no connect this time. I did not write down the log info, though. Hm. Don't call me silly, but what happens when you clear the firewall ruleset (especially the divert rule) and try to telnet to the internal machine than? Does that work or do you have some more basic network trouble? (Something like internal host's address cannot be resolved or different netmasks or some other failure.) Just use ipfw flush to clear the firewall, no need to edit /etc/rc.conf or /etc/rc.firewall and reboot. > Any way you can seek a peak at one of your finely configured machines > at work :) At the first time when I was looking into that natd/ipfw stuff (on 2.2.x about two years ago) I had my problems, too, and there were things I wasn't able to understand :-) Regards, Martin -- /| /| | /| / ,,You know, there's a lot of opportunities, / |/ | artin |/ |/ elk if you're knowing to take them, you know, there's a lot of opportunities, Freiberg/Saxony, Germany if there aren't you can make them, mw@sax.de / mw@theatre.sax.de make or break them!''

If you just want to know if a variable in sh contains the substring "..", this is easy: case "$var" in *..*) echo 'I contain ".."!' ;; *) echo 'I do not contain "..".' ;; esac That solution is even quite efficient, because it does not require to exec any external programs ("case" is an sh- builtin).

The message you're seeing is from inetd, because you start it with the -l (log) option. The identd utility is a program which can have incoming connections passed to it by inetd. There's nothing wrong with the options you're starting identd with -- the problem is that you're starting inetd with the log option, which causes it to be more verbose than you seem to want. > > > Anyone remember what the -R flag is for? > > > > RTFM, you lazy sod. :-) > > Like I said, it's not in man identd.

I'm running FreeBSD 3.4-RC on a p166 with 32MB, D-link DFE-530TX. It's connected to a K6-2 400, 192MB ram, windows 98se, again with a D-link DFE-530TX. I get great sends from the windows box to FreeBSD. FTP and samba get 3.5MB/s, which maxes out the dodgy 1GB slow HDD that FreeBSD has - it thrashes constantly until the file transfer is done. Network benchmarks on the windows box tell me 8.5MB/s. The cards are running in Full-Duplex 100Mbps along a 10 metre CAT 5 UTP cable. Unfortunately though, sends from FreeBSD go horrendously slow. Both FTP and samba only send at 500KB/s at the most. Usually averaging around 250KB/s. I was reading through the mailing list archive and found somebody who had the exact same symptoms as mine - fast receives, but slow sends, and ftpd sending data in bursts every few seconds. But i couldn't find the solution to his problem. Anybody have any ideas why it's going so slow? Here's a few snips of my config. This is from dmesg: vr0: rev 0x06 int a irq 11 on pci0.18.0 vr0: Ethernet address: 00:80:c8:d8:19:b7 vr0: autoneg complete, link status good (full-duplex, 100Mbps) And ifconfig: vr0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 ether 00:80:c8:d8:19:b7 media: 100baseTX supported media: autoselect 100baseTX 100baseTX 100baseTX 10baseT/UTP 10baseT/UTP 10baseT/UTP sl0: flags=c010 mtu 552 ppp0: flags=8051 mtu 576 inet 210.84.240.184 --> 210.84.63.240 netmask 0xffffff00 ppp1: flags=8010 mtu 1500 lo0: flags=8049 mtu 16384 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 Can anybody please help?

I tried changing the default command manually, pure trial and error, and I would eventually get "can't find x", where x is whatever I typed. So I tried stripping down the machine as much as I could, removing the network and sound cards and trying again... still rebooting. I think I'm missing something. The only file I have is boot.flp. Duke mentions mfsroot.flp and kern.flp (below) but I can't find these anywhere on the ftp sites. I appreciate any help you can provide. ___________________________________________________________________ : After following the instructions I checked the disk and it is blank ,or, : seems to be blank. It's not blank. Don't forget what 'rawrite' does to the floppy. It doesn't DOS format it; that's for sure. :-) You just have to pop the floppy into your drive, and reboot your machine. DOS can't read the formatted disk but when you boot your machine with the floppy, you should be able to boot into the FreeBSD installer. :-) --------------------------------------------------------------------- >After following the instructions I checked the disk and it is blank ,or, >seems to be blank. >Is there anything wrong with this procedure? If you used fdimage correctly, that should work fine. Since it's not a DOS disk, and Windows is pretty stupid when it comes to other file systems, it thinks it's a blank disk and wants to format it.

Same situation, Windows <--> FreeBSD, same low speed from freebsd out - 500k/s. This is definately worth looking into. I had put it down to lousy drivers (pn and mx written by the same author - no offence), but now that's vr too, I'm beginning to doubt it. I have since replaced my LinkSys in my FreeBSD box with a 3c905C, and my problems have gone away, *but* I do get a hell of a lot of collisions from Windows to FreeBSD now (which possibly means the NetGear card is crap, which is in the Windows box). I am going to order another 3c905 for the Windows today, and see how I go. I will keep the FA310TX, however, as I am thinking of hacking up the driver. If you find any solutions/answers, please please please let me know :) Thanks Cliff. p.s. If this mail doesnt make it to the list, could you forward it for me?

The basic structure is fine, but i get confused between /usr/doc, /usr/share. /usr/share/doc, /usr/local/share, /usr/src/share, /usr/src/share/doc... i think that covers most of them. -jm To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 17 4:56: 9 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from axl.noc.iafrica.com (axl.noc.iafrica.com [196.31.1.175]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id AC51314EFA for ; Fri, 17 Dec 1999 04:56:06 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from sheldonh@axl.noc.iafrica.com) Received: from sheldonh (helo=axl.noc.iafrica.com) by axl.noc.iafrica.com with local-esmtp (Exim 3.11 #1) id 11ywvI-000Ad2-00; Fri, 17 Dec 1999 14:55:52 +0200 From: Sheldon Hearn To: "Simon Holliday" Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: ports/gzip problems In-reply-to: Your message of "Fri, 17 Dec 1999 11:33:29 GMT." <01aa01bf4882$9c4d8e60$210110ac@billco.com> Date: Fri, 17 Dec 1999 14:55:51 +0200 Message-ID: <40859.945435351@axl.noc.iafrica.com> Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Fri, 17 Dec 1999 11:33:29 GMT, "Simon Holliday" wrote: > I can gzip and gunzip other files fine - it's just the ones that are fetched > while making ports.

For mysql (the example in my last message), the checksum was fine. For those where the checksum does not match, I have tried "make NO_CHECKSUM=yes". However, in ALL cases, regardless of checksum, the same "invalid compressed data" error is reported.

What's the problem? Stuff in /usr/src is obviously source to the actual installed stuff, and thus shouldn't concern you in the least if you're looking for documentation. Stuff in /usr/doc is sort of a hybrid between the ports collection and src, and it contains the source to FDP documentation. Not of much direct use in finding documentation. /usr/share/doc is the install location for FDP documentation, and a few other bits from src/. /usr/local/share/doc is the place where ports put documentation. It's all pretty straightforward, really (: Neil -- Neil Blakey-Milner nbm@rucus.ru.ac.za To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 17 5:28:23 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from itsunix.uwc.ac.za (cache.uwc.ac.za [196.11.235.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 5F2F514D70 for ; Fri, 17 Dec 1999 05:28:04 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mark@itsunix.uwc.ac.za) Received: (qmail 22509 invoked from network); 17 Dec 1999 13:34:14 -0000 Received: from localhost.uwc.ac.za (HELO itsunix.uwc.ac.za) (root@127.0.0.1) by localhost.uwc.ac.za with SMTP; 17 Dec 1999 13:34:14 -0000 From: mark Organization: model connection To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: display problems Date: Fri, 17 Dec 1999 15:23:09 +0200 X-Mailer: KMail [version 1.0.28] Content-Type: text/plain MIME-Version: 1.0 Message-Id: <99121715341308.20952@itsunix.uwc.ac.za> Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello I am having problems with xserver on my machine.

Do ``make patch'', then change directory to the source directory, edit popper.h and comment out the entire block that begins with "#ifdef KERBEROS". This is untested advice. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.

In light of this, has anyone had any luck with getting any FreeBSD (I'd even try -current if it would work) installed and running on a Gateway Colorbook? I've got one with 486DX4/75, 12MB RAM, a 250MB HD, a floppy, and a Gateway 14.4 modem (PCMCIA). I borrowed a USRobotics (pre-3com takeover) combo 33.6 modem/10bt ethernet PCMCIA, because I wanted to install FreeBSD over the network. The FreeBSD boot disks didn't seem to see the combo card. Then again, I didn't know what driver to use. Under Linux (couldn't get it installed either), an smc91c92.so module was loaded for the ethernet part of the card, if that gives anyone some clues. I just want to run FreeBSD, no X Windows. Any advice or instructions would be greatly appreciated. -- PETER SCHWENK | UNIX System Administrator Department of Mathematical Sciences | University of Delaware schwenk@math.udel.edu | (302)831-0437 <-NEW!!!

Maybe make world parses those directories to move the files to their destinations, and when they aren't there it dies.

I'm planning on removing my BeOS installation in favour of another FreeBSD installation so that I can test FreeBSD -> FreeBSD. This machine has a FA310TX, which will use the pn driver.

What info from the > disklabel would you like? This is almost verbatim the problem I had with IBM Deskstar 34GB drives. I could newfs to almost the size of the drive with no errors, but using the whole drive yielded a newfs error. I posted about this problem several times, perhaps three or four weeks ago. Although people were generally helpful, and several were quite helpful, there's been no acknowledgement that there's any kind of problem with the way things work. In the end, I had to use less than the full size of the drives, and I ended up striping two about 30GB filesystems with vinum. I'm looking forward to seeing an actual resolution to this problem, because I'd like to be able to reinstall the thing correctly when a fix is available, but I can't afford to take the thing down to play with it anymore just to try things at semi-random.

Now, I have a cable modem, but in this area, they're still using those lame hybrid (downstream through cable modem, upstream through analog modem and PPP) setups. I suspect that with some clever use of natd, ipfw, et. al. the connection can still be shared, but I'm stymied. Here's the situation I have a computer with ed0 connected to the ApartmentNet (TM). The cable modem is connected to an ethernet interface xl0, but that's only downstream. Upstream is through a PPP connection on tun0. Can anyone more skilled in IP than I (not saying much) suggest any incantations to natd'ize the cable modem connection? Let me know if I need to provide any more info, tcpdump(1)s, etc. Lucas -- S.

Actually I´m a bit confused to say the least :) Is it at all possible to mirror the bootdisk, so that if a disk fails during production time, nothing happens? Can I boot on the secondary disk afterwards, if the primary fails? If I can, could you give me a hint to what Im supposed to be looking at? CCD, VINUM, other, and if you have tried it, some pointers to save me some time. If it is not possible, then how would you do it? Some of you without RAID controllers must have some way of keeping your bootdisk/system safe? Pointers please? (Do you just backup your bootdisk every 15 minutes or the like?) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /\/\orten $eeberg, Systems Consultant @ Merkantildata - Enterprise Solutions #echo 'System Administrators suck :)' > /dev/console To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 17 7:19:24 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mgr3.k12.mo.us (bsd.mgr3.k12.mo.us [204.184.227.140]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A580814FEB for ; Fri, 17 Dec 1999 07:19:22 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from rjn103s@mgr3.k12.mo.us) Received: from redmobile ([172.16.0.5]) by mgr3.k12.mo.us (8.9.3/8.9.2) with SMTP id JAA05963 for ; Fri, 17 Dec 1999 09:30:19 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from rjn103s@mgr3.k12.mo.us) From: Support Reply-To: rjn103s@mgr3.k12.mo.us Organization: Mountain Grove R3 Schools To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Checking quotas at startup after upgrade to -stable?

The process I went through is as follows: cvsuped latest source build world rebuilt/reinstall my custom kernel ran mergemaster then rebooted All went great except my quotas don't check at startup. I verified that I still have my /etc/rc.conf with the correct setting and I thought about changing the /etc/defaults/rc.conf but I haven't yet. I thought I would get a little input from the group on what I might have done wrong. I do not think I made any wrong choices with mergemaster but I do not want to rule that out as a possiblilty. Thoughts? I want to also take a moment to thank all the parties making the upgrading process go so smooth!

IIRC, while the aout kernels also took up more space in memory, the ELF kernels do not. Am i correct? Also, if i run a kernel and keep an identical debug version on disk, will debug outputs/kernel dumps sync with the debug version to produce better debug output?

The install itself went smoothly, but after rebooting I can't work out how to boot it. I suspect this should be obvious, but I can't get it and the lack of documentation makes things difficult. So far I've tried the following at the SRM console, all fail: >>> boot >>> boot dka300 >>> boot -file /kernel dka300 >>> boot -file /kernel.GENERIC dka300 What do I need to do to get it to boot?

Except now i have 60 megs free in / that i have no use for now. I symlinked /var and /tmp into /usr, and since i had an 80 meg root partition, most of it is free now.

Unfortunately, you'll probably need to go the same route I did -- slogging away an manpages and messing around with everything you can get your hands on, on a scratch box. Good luck! Ciao, Sheldon.

Well, you could confirm that you have sound-looking code for handling enable_quotas in /etc/rc, but it's quite unlikely that you'd have mangled that.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG THANKS !!!!!!!! to everyone who tried to help me on this one... Yes I have gotten it working fine now. Below is the original URL instructions I tried to follow. As you can see they are built around an OLD Linux release. I built my *.mbr file using the BOOT.EXE program on this web site. This was the cause of my problems. I must say that it also helped me fix it as well. It ended up coming in handy because after all my messing around I still had backups of the MBR and was able to reset the mbr to what Freebsd had changed it to. http://www.dorsai.org/~dcl/publications/NTLDR_Hacking/ In FreeBSD installation where it gave three choices for the Boot partition actions I chose use a STANDARD partition. (I did NOT use FreeBSD partition manager nor did I "not touch" or "leave alone" the MBR) At this stage after the completed installation the system would boot directly to FreeBSD ONLY! The proper steps to be taken here would be 1. Log into the FreeBSD system as root. 2. Mount a (dos formatted) Floppy [ mount_msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt ] * 3. Copy the Boot0 and Boot1 files to the floppy [ cp /boot/boot0 /mnt/boot0 ] Used for different physical disk [ cp /boot/boot1 /mnt/boot1 ] Used for same physical disk * 4. Shutdown the FreeBSD system and boot from MSDOS floppy. * 5. Run Dos Fdisk program and make the NT partition ACTIVE again. 6. Reboot the system. NT should boot fine now NOT FreeBSD. 7. Copy the needed Boot Sector file from the floppy to: C:\Bootsect.bsd You may see a similar file already on the C: called Bootsect.dos 8. Modify the BOOT.INI file to contain the line: [ C:\Bootsect.bsd="FreeBSD UNIX Version 3.4-Stable" ] (or whatever) 9. Reboot the system and all should work fine. It seems that FreeBSD already took the MBR issues into account and provided the files necessary to make this all work. It would have been very simple had I had the proper instructions. I have marked above the instruction items that I learned via responses from this list. I guessed and figured out #5 on my own. From what I understand: The boot manager that comes with FreeBSD will not boot an NTFS partition. ( I didn't try it ) The NT loader looks a lot nicer and works well enough.

And for using a boot floppy to boot the system, you will have to try the following (because I cant test it right now), first create the 3.3Release kern.flp boot floppy ( "c:\fdimage -v kern.flp a:" ), then boot your FBSD server (like always), and mount the disk in it "mount /dev/fd0 /floppy" then "cd /floppy/boot", and edit the loader.rc file "vi loader.rc", and try just this two lines in your file: set root_disk_unit=2 autoboot 5 Then, just unmount your disk and try it, it should work (I have never done it), you can play around this if this doesnt work. I Hope this Helps...

Search the archive. There have been several threads on -questions on this in recent months. The last numbers I remember was setting MAXUSERS=256 and NMBCLUSTERS=16384.

I have been attempting to get dial-in ppp to work and have yet to have any success. The problem is that the modem never answers the phone call. I have gone through the handbook and believe that I have setup everything OK (DTR light is on, etc.). I have a feeling that I am missing something in the rc.serial file to set the modem for auto-answer, but I am just learning Unix and do not understand the commands in this configuration file very well.

Basically, the controller either recognizes and enables the feature or it ignores them. The only one i'm not going to mess with is LBA. Question for everyone else: when the probe is done and shows wd0: Brand X: xx.x Gig flags DMA, 32-bit, wake-up ... etc On those extra options turned on by the flags, does the probe only list them if the WORKED, or does it just list every option SELECTED in the flags, whether they work during the probe or not? -jm To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 17 11:40: 7 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 0E47114FC4 for ; Fri, 17 Dec 1999 11:39:57 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kstewart@3-cities.com) Received: from 3-cities.com (kenn2026.bossig.com [208.26.242.26]) by corinth.bossig.com (Rockliffe SMTPRA 3.4.5) with ESMTP id ; Fri, 17 Dec 1999 11:46:45 -0800 Message-ID: <385A9192.840FCB72@3-cities.com> Date: Fri, 17 Dec 1999 11:40:02 -0800 From: Kent Stewart Organization: Columbia Basin Virtual Community Project X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (WinNT; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Dale Hagglund Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: when is it safe to use the 0xa0ffa0ff disk flags?

It is something you can test before you fix it in the kernel. These parameters can be configured during boot. Changing them at boot time lets you test the configuration and then make it permanent by adding the flags in your kernel. I went from 2-3MB/s to 12-14MB/s. This isn't a trivial improvement :).

I have FreeBSD 3.3 and have done a successful install of it onto an HP Pavilion 75MHz Pentium box. That box had the hard disk on wdc0 and the 40x CD on wdc1. All went smooth. Last night, I tried it on my home machine, a Celeron 466 with an Abit BH6 motherboard and a slightly newer 40x CD-ROM. I booted off of the CD to initiate the install, but noticed that it couldn't find wdc1 which seems odd since it was using wdc1 to execute! Needless to say, when it came time to install, it couldn't find the CD and I couldn't do anything. I saw some references to device 'ed0' in the archives, but I removed ALL of the network interfaces since this is a home machine with no network card. Any ideas? Thanks.

Another thhing: could it be that some PCI adapter cards have to share IRQs? IRQ sharing is well-defined for PCI and they should be able to do so, but we always try to avoid it for performance reasons because if there's one unique IRQ for each device, no one has to decide and look which one it probably was. Unfortunately, even the Asus P2B-S motherboards at work are a little difficult to configure properly because AGP and the first PCI slot always share one interrupt (the only way to avoid that is to leave it empty) and I remember one other thing with the on-board Adaptec chipset (7890, I think). All of those Ethernet adapters I told you from in other mails have single IRQs :-) (Even the three ones in my desktop machine at work, and the other three ones in a little server machine - of course, the seven de interfaces in one machine (a single port card, a twin port card, a quad port card) don't have, but this machine doesn only some Ethernet routing to an uplink that's currently limited to 2 mbit/sec, so I don't care about performance that much.

Okay, it took me about three or four ours going through Samba and FreeBSD documentation, but at least I found the possibility to increase the send and receive buffer sizes Samba uses. I did so and *tadaaaa* a highly noticeable better write performance from Windows (in that case, NT) to FreeBSD. In that smb.conf, I have socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=262144 \ SO_RCVBUF=262144 I use that large buffer size because the machine has plenty of RAM and there are at least about 10 Windoze boxes up and running all the time. > I was reading through the mailing list archive and found somebody who had > the exact same symptoms as mine - fast receives, but slow sends, and ftpd > sending data in bursts every few seconds.

Somewhere on the FreeBSD mailing lists I read that there was a patch for better performance within the latest Samba port for FreeBSD. I haven't found something significant within that port, and I did a cvsup yesterday. As I never got an answer on my question, why increased socket buffers aren't a default (at least on FreeBSD, because the problem you describe appears again and again and again), I got no answer yet. Is the some risk for stability or security or something else? BTW, with two FreeBSD boxes with much memory (256 mbytes and 512 mbytes) and Intel EtherExpress network cards, I usually get 10 mbytes/sec. through the network (connected to a full-duplex switched hub) when there are no disks involved (from the cache to /dev/null with files > 150 mbytes).

(Use a file that fits in the memory cache, write it to /dev/null.) Could it be that you're using some IDE disk without DMA? I'm astonished of that bad performance, as stated before.

My telco runs ATM over DSL over which a PPP connection to my ISP is encapsulated, so to speak. To start with, the telco had some problems with its DSLAMs that caused long pauses and sometimes routing timeouts, making interactive apps like ssh unusable. The telco said this was partly due to ATM cells being lost which is disastrous for the larger IP packets, as it causes lots of retransmissions... not so sure about that, but anyway, it shows the complexity of squeezing that amount of bandwidth through plain old copper wires, I guess. Even though the router says I've got 5.7Mbps (bits per second) to the exchange, the telco appears to have capped each TCP session at 2Mbps max (grrr...). That's still pretty good, but what complicates things for me is the high latencies I see as soon as I connect to servers outside New Zealand: traceroute to pacex.net (204.1.219.156), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets 1 m10 (192.168.1.254) 1.075 ms 0.993 ms 0.913 ms 2 203-79-82-254.adsl-wns.paradise.net.nz (203.79.82.254) 86.952 ms 85.922 ms 66.505 ms 3 192.168.253.225 (192.168.253.225) 45.744 ms 45.747 ms 45.314 ms 4 kelly.ipnet.paradise.net.nz (203.96.153.138) 46.478 ms 45.642 ms 46.252 ms 5 cassandra.paradise.net.nz (203.96.152.3) 46.431 ms 45.809 ms 46.426 ms 6 a4-0-0-5.akbr1.netgate.net.nz (202.37.246.77) 55.911 ms 56.173 ms 56.100 ms 7 a0-0-0-2.tkbr1.netgate.net.nz (202.37.246.121) 57.310 ms 56.517 ms 59.378 ms Leaving NZ, going to LA: 8 s1-1-4.labr1.netgate.net.nz (202.37.245.166) 238.127 ms 181.145 ms 181.776 ms 9 s5-0-0.lsanca1-cr1.bbnplanet.net (4.24.24.17) 180.932 ms 185.284 ms 181.803 ms 10 p2-1.lsanca1-ba1.bbnplanet.net (4.24.4.5) 184.113 ms 180.490 ms 181.832 ms 11 p7-0.lsanca1-br1.bbnplanet.net (4.24.4.2) 236.089 ms 237.078 ms 236.339 ms 22 dsl1.irvnca01.us.ra.verio.net (192.215.247.103) 218.263 ms 218.406 ms 215.212 ms 23 compappcon-dw.customer.ni.net (204.1.216.14) 216.128 ms 217.187 ms 218.471 ms 24 almazs.pacex.net (204.1.219.156) 272.606 ms 273.758 ms 272.252 ms These are quite good roundtrip times for me actually. Sometimes they go well into the 300-400ms range, which really makes applications that depend on opening lots of connections and getting small files (like Web browsing) suck, despite my multi-Mbps connection. Anyway, what I've found to help on all operating systems apart from FreeBSD is to enable and tune the TCP High Performance extensions settings (RFC 1323). It's less than obvious how you do this on FreeBSD, unfortunately. This is what I've dug up so far... correct me if I'm wrong by all means. Put: tcp_extensions="YES" into /etc/rc.conf Then, it looks like you have to use the sysctl command to check and tune some of the TCP settings: sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.sendspace=65536 && sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.recvspace=65536 should give you 65KB TCP windows -- for some reason, FreeBSD defaults to 16KB which is quite small. There are two more settings which I can't find documented anywhere, but which I suspect affect things as well: net.inet.tcp.mssdflt: 512 (is this the default Maximum Segment Size? shouldn't it be 1460 bytes?) net.inet.raw.recvspace: 65536 (I've bumped it up as an experiment -- think the default is 8192). sysctl -a | less shows you all the settings. Other than that, having an MTU/MRU of 1500 seems to work the best, and you might want to check that you're not using e.g. PPP compression settings that aren't compatible with with your ISP's peer. I have no idea how well stuff like PPP address field and header compression works with high bitrate connections, but I suspect that enabling them would add latency. Hope the above is of some use to you...

What follows is my original question, apologies for those that have already seen it... --- cut here --- I've been real problems adding a couple of hard drives to a server that we've otherwise had no problems with, and I have to appeal for help with this one. The server prior to adding the hard drives was an AMD K6/2-300 with 32MB of RAM and an IDE 4 gig hard drive, running 3.3-STABLE cvsup'd as of last week from a clean install. The kernel is the GENERIC kernel, with IPDIVERT and IPFIREWALL enabled. We recently purchased two IBM Deskstar DPTA-373420 34.2 GB hard drives. The top of the drives reads: P/N: 31L9060, LBA: 66,835,440, RPM: 7200, MLC: 842312 CHS: 16383/16/63. I installed the two drives as master and slave on the secondary IDE controller. They weren't detected with the right size by the BIOS, so I upgraded the BIOS to the latest code from the motherboard manufacturer's website, and they then detected perfectly. I set the BIOS for LBA, and it showed: size: 34,219MB cyl: 4160, head: 255, precomp: 0, landz: 16380, sect: 63. On bootup, the drives appeared as "wd2" and "wd3" as expected in BSD. The kernel on bootup detects the drives as: wdc1 at 0x170-0x177 irq 15 on isa wdc1: unit 0 (wd2): wd2: 32634MB (66835440 sectors), 66305 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S wdc1: unit 1 (wd3): wd3: 32634MB (66835440 sectors), 66305 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S I tried to install the drives using /stand/sysinstall, and fdisk'd them with "use entire disk", dangerously dedicated. After some time I determined that "use entire disk" overrides the manual setting of the geometry, which starts off being something totally inappropriate, so I followed the recommendation on the FAQ, and fdisk'd both drives with Windows 98, and formatted them as MS-DOS FAT32 partitions. Both drives fdisk'd to the right size under DOS and formatted with no bad sectors. I went back into BSD's fdisk using /stand/sysinstall and changed the type of the partition to 165 (FreeBSD), noted that the geometry was now detected correctly (apparently having been set by DOS's fdisk) and all was well. But when I use disklabel to try to install a single filesystem, like this: Disk: wd2 Partition name: wd2s1 Free: 0 blocks (0MB) Part Mount Size Newfs Part ---- ----- ---- ----- ---- ----- wd2s1e /ua 32632MBUFS Y It fails with a mount error ("Invalid argument") after a lengthy time. I tried to mount it and realized the newfs had failed, as the superblocks weren't correct. When I run newfs manually, just like /stand/sysinstall does, it shows: su-2.03# newfs -b 8192 -f 1024 /dev/rwd2s1e /dev/rwd2s1e: 66830336 sectors in 16316 cylinders of 1 tracks, 4096 sectors 32632.0MB in 1020 cyl groups (16 c/g, 32.00MB/g, 7936 i/g) super-block backups (for fsck -b #) at: 32, 65568, 131104, 196640, 262176, 327712, 393248, 458784, 524320, 589856, 655392, 720928, 786464, 852000, 917536, 983072, 1048608, 1114144, 1179680, ...a bunch deleted... 65667104, 65732640, 65798176, 65863712, 65929248, 65994784, 66060320, 66125856, 66191392, 66256928, 66322464, 66388000, 66453536, 66519072, 66584608, 66650144, 66715680, 66781216, write error: 0 newfs: wtfs: Read-only file system su-2.03# I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong, or what is wrong with the newfs. I have repeated the entire procedure several times, on both drives, both with after having used DOS's fdisk (with LBA enabled in the BIOS) and using only BSD's utilities (both with LBA and NORMAL modes). With BSD only, the geometry is detected incorrectly and I have to enter what the BIOS says (4160/255/63). In between tries, I've been zeroing out the partition table to make sure it isn't getting confused, with: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rwd2 count=1000 which seems to work well to restart things with a clean slate. I would sure appreciate any help anyone could provide. Thank you for your consideration of this, sorry this message is so long.

Since the slice number is what DOS world calls a `partition', I think that you might find it handy to know that BSD can not boot from a slice too far from the start of the disk's beginning. If repartitioning is not an option, because you do not have enough unused space for temporary storage, you can always use Partition Magic (which runs on Windows) and rearrange your partitions to have a minimal first partition for BSD to boot from, and then your Windows partitions, followed by another BSD partition, which you can label at will to contain your /usr, /var, and other BSD mount points. A 64 Mb partition should be enough for your / filesystem, most of the time, if you mount /var and /tmp from some other partition with more available space; since usage of the latter two tend to grow a bit. My setup (with BSD / on slice 1, and Windows on slice 2) looks like: slice# size OS mntpoint wd0s1 64 Mb BSD / wd0s2 1 Gb Windows C: wd0s3 4+ Gb BSD /tmp, /var, /usr | as for the email program I am using you are the first to tell me | there is a problem with it....everyone I know uses some sort of | wordprocessor like email program that puts CR/LF at the end of | paragraphs not lines...lines are autowraped based on window size.

I'm surprised you haven't read http://www.lemis.com/vinum/wishlist.html: There are a number of features that I have been asked for in Vinum. This page summarizes them and their status. Vinum root file system It's currently not possible to mount the root file system on a Vinum volume. This is a chicken and egg problem: You can't start Vinum until the kernel is running, and the kernel needs to be mounted somewhere. There are at least four different possible ways to implement this: 1. Teach the bootstrap code about Vinum so that it could start Vinum and load directly from a Vinum volume. This is unlikely to be viable, since Vinum needs to know too much about the kernel environment. 2. Create a separate boot file system and put the kernel in there, then start Vinum and the root file system. This is the System V way, but I don't like it too much. 3. Create an MFS root file system. This effectively lives in swap, but there's no problem there. We'd need an easier way to build MFS kernels. 4. Boot normally, start Vinum and then mount the root file system on top of the old root file system. This might work, up to a point: you can mount a file system on any mount point, even if files are open in the hierarchy below the mount point. Unfortunately, there are a number of problems with this approach. In particular, you can't close all files on the old root partition, which means that you're not completely resilient. In addition, if you boot from the Vinum partition as a normal disk partition (which is possible and seems to make sense), you'll have consistency problems if you change a file on one partition and not the other, since the system sees the two partitions as separate. One possibility here would be for the mount operation to go through the vnodes for each open file and change them to point to the Vinum volume. It's likely that this will be a difficult operation to perform. Status: I'm still thinking about this one. It's the single most asked-for feature, and I'm very open to suggestions about how to implement it. > If it is not possible, then how would you do it?

In fact, there isn't too much on the root file system which is needed for continued operation. You can move most of that to a different file system, leaving you just with the kernel on the root file system. But there's no really tidy way to do it.

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 We have some FreeBSD 3.3 servers which we'd like to have dual NICs in. Normally, this isn't a problem, but the servers we have seem to hand upon network initialization when we put a pair of 3C905B or Cs in them. This, however, isn't the question at hand. I noticed that Intel makess a Pro/100+ NIC which is dual ported (ie, two ethernet ports). Now I see that the Pro/100+ NIC is supported via the fxp driver. Will this specific Pro/100+ NIC work? Will it show up as fxp0 and fxp1?

I have 2 ftpd's running on the machine. One ftpd is running on port 21, and one is running on port 69. What I'm having a problem with is, I cannot bind both ftpd's to port 21, therefor, I would have to "ftp " -- which I don't want to do, because I'm going to be using this as a public mirror. So, what I'm trying to do, is forward any traffic on port 69 to port 21 on the second ip address. Can anyone help me? Regards, Mychal L.

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. In- evitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999. You'll find this information on page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of Contents). See the end of this document for instructions on how to find the errata for an older version. You can get the current document in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ps. See page 302 of the third edition to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-3.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-3.html. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at Page ii _______ The instructions on page ii (opposite the title page) tell you to look at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2 for the errata list. That's wrong. Look at this list. Pages 190 and 191 _________________ The description is not very clear about which text appears when booting from floppy for initial install, and which appears when booting normally. The procedure is very similar, but there are some differences. Add the following text after the heading Boot messages: You'll boot your system in at least two different ways: initially you'll boot from floppy or CD-ROM in order to install the system. Later, after the system is installed, you'll boot from hard disk. The procedure is almost identical, so we'll look at both versions in the following examples. Replace the text from the middle of page 191 with: If you're booting from 1.44 MB floppies, you will then see: Please insert MFS root floppy and press enter: When you insert the MFS root floppy and press Enter, you see more twirling batons, then the UserConfig screen appears. UserConfig: Modifying the boot configuration ____________________________________________ After the kernel has been loaded, the following screen will appear if you are installing the system, or if you have requested it with the -c option to the boot loader: Page 206 ________ The bottom two lines on this page should be in bold constant font, indicating that this is input for your /etc/rc.config file Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition nfs_client_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS client (or NO). nfs_server_enable="YES" # This host is an NFS server (or NO). Page 265 ________ The example on the second half of the page refers to the old SCSI driver. The scsi program is no longer available in FreeBSD 3.x. Instead, use the camcontrol program. Replace the text with:. Modern disks make provisions for recovering from such errors by allocating an alternate sector for the data. IDE drives do this automatically, but with SCSI drives you have the option of enabling or disabling reallocation. Usually it is turned on when you buy them, but occasionally it is not. When installing a new disk, you should check that the parameters ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enable) and AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enable) are turned on. For example, to check and set the values for disk da1, you would enter: # camcontrol modepage da1 -m 1 -e -P 3 # scsi -f /dev/rda1c -m 1 -e -P 3 This command will start up your favourite editor (either the one specified in the EDITOR environment variable, or vi by default) with the following data: AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enbld): 0 ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enbld): 1 TB (Transfer Block): 0 RC (Read Continuous): 0 EER (Enable Early Recovery): 0 PER (Post Error): 0 DTE (Disable Transfer on Error): 0 DCR (Disable Correction): 0 Read Retry Count: 16 Correction Span: 41 Head Offset Count: 0 Data Strobe Offset Count: 0 Write Retry Count: 16 Recovery Time Limit: 0 The values for AWRE and ARRE should both be 1. If they aren't, as in this case, where AWRE is 0, change the data with the editor, save it, and exit. The camcontrol program will write the data back to the disk and enable the option. Page 3 The Complete FreeBSD Page 331 ________ The description of the config refers to the SCSI drive sd0. This is the old name; in FreeBSD version 3, SCSI drives are called da, so this reference should be da0. Thanks to Francisco Reyes for pointing out this problem. Page 362 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel: # cd ../../compile/FREEBIE # make depend # make The make depend is needed even if the directory has just been created: apart from creating dependency information, it also creates some files needed for the build. Thanks to Mark Ovens for drawing this to my attention, and to Francisco Reyes and Bill Fumerola for pointing out that it still wasn't fixed in the third edition. Page 409 ________ The information on setting the default routers specified the wrong end of the PPP links in some places. It should always be the ``far'' end of the link. Replace the second example on page 409, and the text following it, with this text: defaultrouter="139.130.136.129" # Set to default gateway (or NO). static_routes="" # Set to static route list (or leave empty). gateway_enable="YES" # Set to YES if this host will be a gateway. This is the normal way to set the default route on a point-to-point interface. In fact, for PPP you don't need to specify the default address: the PPP packages will set it for you when the link comes up. This makes it possible to Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, third edition set default routes when you're forced to use dynamic IP addresses, where you don't know the address at this point. We'll see how PPP does this on page 446. In the first example on page 410, the sixth example on page 412 and the second example on page 413, replace the defaultrouter definition with: defaultrouter="139.130.237.65" # Set to default gateway (or NO). Thanks to Andreas Longwitz for pointing out this error. Getting errata for older editions of the book _____________________________________________ There have been a total of five different versions of ``The Complete FreeBSD''. The most accurate way to distinguish them is by the format date, which you'll find at the bottom of page iv (the page before the beginning of the Table of Contents) in all versions of the book. 1. The first was titled ``Installing and running FreeBSD'', and was formatted on 24 February 1996. No errata list exists for this book. 2. For the first edition (19 July 1996), get ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/er- rata-1. This same file is also available via the web link http://www.lemis.com/errata-1. I am no longer updating this errata list. 3. The list for the second edition (16 December 1997) is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the second edition to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only Page 5 Getting errata for older editions of the book take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html. 4. The revised second edition was formatted on 11 February 1999. As the name suggests, it's not a complete new edition: in fact, only three chapters are different: o The chapter ``Setting up X11'' has been brought up to date. o Appendix D (``Contents of the Ports Collection'') has been replaced by two appendixes, ``Errata and Addenda'' (the errata list up to date at the time) and ``FreeBSD 3.0'', which describes the differences between FreeBSD 2.x and FreeBSD 3.x. There is no separate errata list for this book. Refer to the second edition errata list. 5. The current, third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999. This is the correct list for this edition.

If you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your message: - You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate. - You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read. - You asked more than one unrelated question in one message. - You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone. - You sent out the same message more than once. - You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions. If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you will get more than one copy of this message from different people. Read on, and your next message will be more successful. This document is also available on the web at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html. ===================================================================== Contents: I: Introduction II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers? IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V: How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction =============== This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the "newcomers"), and also those who answer the questions (the "hackers"). Note that the term "hacker" has nothing to do with breaking into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is "cracker", but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions ============================================== When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG. In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list! If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list, you can send mail to "Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG" with the following command in the body of your email message: unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as grog@lemis.de. Since then, I have changed it to grog@lemis.com. If I were to try to remove grog@lemis.com from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2. You're subscribed to a mailing list which is subscribed to FreeBSD-questions. If that's the case, you'll have to figure out which one it is and get your name taken off that one. If you're not sure which one it might be, check the headers of the messages you receive from freebsd-questions: maybe there's a clue there. If you've done all this, and you still can't figure out what's going on, send a message to Postmaster@FreeBSD.org, and he will sort things out for you. Don't send a message to FreeBSD-questions: they can't help you. III: Should I ask -questions, -newbies or -hackers? =================================================== Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD, FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers. In addition, the FreeBSD-newbies list caters specifically for people who are new to FreeBSD and may be having trouble getting used to the environment. In some cases, it's not really clear which group you should ask. The following criteria should help for 99% of all questions, however: If the question is of a general nature, first check whether this isn't a Frequently Asked Question (FAQ). There's a list of these questions at http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ.html, and also on your own system (once you've installed it) at /usr/share/doc/FAQ/FAQ.html. Check there, and if you don't find an answer, ask FreeBSD-questions. Examples might be questions about installing FreeBSD or the use of a particular UNIX utility. If you think the question relates to a bug, but you're not sure, or you don't know how to look for it, send the message to FreeBSD-questions. If the question relates to a bug, and you're almost sure that it's a bug (for example, you can pinpoint the place in the code where it happens, and you maybe have a fix), then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. You should also enter a problem report with the send-pr utility. If the question relates to enhancements to FreeBSD, and you can make suggestions about how to implement them, then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. If the question is of particularly technical nature, such as implementation details or suggestions for improvements, then send the message to FreeBSD-hackers. If you're new to FreeBSD, and the message is about your own relationship to FreeBSD, send the message to FreeBSD-newbies. There are also a number of other specialized mailing lists, for example FreeBSD-isp, which caters to the interests of ISPs (Internet Service Providers) who run FreeBSD. If you happen to be an ISP, this doesn't mean you should automatically send your questions to FreeBSD-isp. The criteria above still apply, and it's in your interest to stick to them, since you're more likely to get good results that way. IV: How to submit a question ============================= When submitting a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider the following points: 1. Remember that nobody gets paid for answering a FreeBSD question. They do it of their own free will. You can influence this free will positively by submitting a well-formulated question supplying as much relevant information as possible. You can influence this free will negatively by submitting an incomplete, illegible, or rude question. It's perfectly possible to send a message to FreeBSD-questions and not get an answer even if you follow these rules. It's much more possible to not get an answer if you don't. In the rest of this document, we'll look at how to get the most out of your question to FreeBSD-questions. 2. Not everybody who answers FreeBSD questions reads every message: they look at the subject line and decide whether it interests them. Clearly, it's in your interest to specify a subject. ``FreeBSD problem'' or ``Help'' aren't enough. If you provide no subject at all, many people won't bother reading it. If your subject isn't specific enough, the people who can answer it may not read it. 3. Format your message so that it is legible, and PLEASE DON'T SHOUT!!!!!. We appreciate that a lot of people don't speak English as their first language, and we try to make allowances for that, but it's really painful to try to read a message written full of typos or without any line breaks. A lot of badly formatted messages come from bad mailers or badly configured mailers. The following mailers are known to send out badly formatted messages without you finding out about them: Eudora exmh Microsoft Exchange Microsoft Internet Mail Microsoft Outlook Netscape As you can see, the mailers in the Microsoft world are frequent offenders. If at all possible, use a UNIX mailer. If you must use a mailer under Microsoft environments, make sure it is set up correctly. Try not to use MIME: a lot of people use mailers which don't get on very well with MIME. For further information on this subject, check out http://www.lemis.com/email.html. 4. Make sure your time and time zone are set correctly. This may seem a little silly, since your message still gets there, but many of the people you are trying to reach get several hundred messages a day. They frequently sort the incoming messages by subject and by date, and if your message doesn't come before the first answer, they may assume they missed it and not bother to look. 5. Don't include unrelated questions in the same message. Firstly, a long message tends to scare people off, and secondly, it's more difficult to get all the people who can answer all the questions to read the message. 6. Specify as much information as possible. This is a difficult area, and we need to expand on what information you need to submit, but here's a start: If you get error messages, don't say ``I get error messages'', say (for example) ``I get the error message 'No route to host'''. If your system panics, don't say ``My system panicked'', say (for example) ``my system panicked with the message 'free vnode isn't'''. If you have difficulty installing FreeBSD, please tell us what hardware you have. In particular, it's important to know the IRQs and I/O addresses of the boards installed in your machine. If you have difficulty getting PPP to run, describe the configuration. Which version of PPP do you use? What kind of authentication do you have? Do you have a static or dynamic IP address? What kind of messages do you get in the log file? 7. If you don't get an answer immediately, or if you don't even see your own message appear on the list immediately, don't resend the message. Wait at least 24 hours. The FreeBSD mailer offloads messages to a number of subordinate mailers around the world, and sometimes it can take several hours for the mail to get through. And once it gets through, the one person who might know the answer will probably just have gone to bed in his part of the world. 8. If you do all this, and you still don't get an answer, there could be other reasons. For example, the problem is so complicated that nobody knows the answer, or the person who does know the answer was offline. If you don't get an answer after, say, a week, it might help to re-send the message. If you don't get an answer to your second message, though, you're probably not going to get one from this forum. Resending the same message again and again will only make you unpopular. To summarize, let's assume you know the answer to the following question (yes, it's the same one in each case :-). You choose which of these two questions you would be more prepared to answer: Message 1: Subject: (none) I just can't get hits damn silly FereBSD system to workd, and Im really good at this tsuff, but I have never seen anythign sho difficult to install, it jst wont work whatever I try so why don't y9ou guys tell me what I doing wrong. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message 2: Subject: Problems installing FreeBSD I've just got the FreeBSD 2.1.5 CD-ROM from Walnut Creek, and I'm having a lot of difficulty installing it. I have a 66 MHz 486 with 16 MB of memory and an Adaptec 1540A SCSI board, a 1.2GB Quantum Fireball disk and a Toshiba 3501XA CD-ROM drive. The installation works just fine, but when I try to reboot the system, I get the message "Missing Operating System". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- V: How to follow up to a question ================================= Often you will want to send in additional information to a question you have already sent. The best way to do this is to reply to your original message. This has three advantages: 1. You include the original message text, so people will know what you're talking about. Don't forget to trim unnecessary text out, though. 2. The text in the subject line stays the same (you did remember to put one in, didn't you?). Many mailers will sort messages by subject. This helps group messages together. 3. The message reference numbers in the header will refer to the previous message. Some mailers, such as mutt, can thread messages, showing the exact relationships between the messages. VI: How to answer a question ============================ Before you answer a question to FreeBSD-questions, consider: 1. A lot of the points on submitting questions also apply to answering questions. Read them. 2. Has somebody already answered the question? The easiest way to check this is to sort your incoming mail by subject: then (hopefully) you'll see the question followed by any answers, all together. If somebody has already answered it, it doesn't automatically mean that you shouldn't send another answer. But it makes sense to read all the other answers first. 3. Do you have something to contribute beyond what has already been said? In general, "Yeah, me too" answers don't help much, although there are exceptions, like when somebody is describing a problem he's having, and he doesn't know whether it's his fault or whether there's something wrong with the hardware or software. If you do send a "me too" answer, you should also include any further relevant information. 4. Are you sure you understand the question? Very frequently, the person who asks the question is confused or doesn't express himself very well. Even with the best understanding of the system, it's easy to send a reply which doesn't answer the question. This doesn't help: you'll leave the person who submitted the question more frustrated or confused than ever. If nobody else answers, and you're not too sure either, you can always ask for more information. 5. Are you sure your answer is correct? If not, wait a day or so. If nobody else comes up with a better answer, you can still reply and say, for example, "I don't know if this is correct, but since nobody else has replied, why don't you try replacing your ATAPI CD-ROM with a frog?". 6. Unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, reply to the sender and to FreeBSD-questions. Many people on the FreeBSD-questions are "lurkers": they learn by reading messages sent and replied to by others. If you take a message which is of general interest off the list, you're depriving these people of their information. Be careful with group replies; lots of people send messages with hundreds of CCs. If this is the case, be sure to trim the Cc: lines appropriately. 7. Include relevant text from the original message. Trim it to the minimum, but don't overdo it. It should still be possible for somebody who didn't read the original message to understand what you're talking about. 8. Use some technique to identify which text came from the original message, and which text you add. I personally find that prepending ``> '' to the original message works best. Leaving white space after the ``> '' and leave empty lines between your text and the original text both make the result more readable. 9. Put your response in the correct place (after the text to which it replies). It's very difficult to read a thread of responses where each reply comes before the text to which it replies. 10. Most mailers change the subject line on a reply by prepending a text such as ``Re: ''. If your mailer doesn't do it automatically, you should do it manually. 11. If the submitter didn't abide by format conventions (lines too long, inappropriate subject line), please fix it. In the case of an incorrect subject line (such as ``HELP!!??''), change the subject line to (say) ``Re: Difficulties with sync PPP (was: HELP!!??)''. That way other people trying to follow the thread will have less difficulty following it. In such cases, it's appropriate to say what you did and why you did it, but try not to be rude. If you find you can't answer without being rude, don't answer. If you just want to reply to a message because of its bad format, just reply to the submitter, not to the list. You can just send him this message in reply, if you like.

The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, ``The Complete FreeBSD'', published by Walnut Creek, is no exception. In- evitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. The following is a list of modifications which go beyond simple typos. They relate to the second edition, formatted on 16 December 1997. If you have this book, please check this list. If you have the first edition of 19 July 1996, please check ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-1.

If you find a Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at General changes _______________ o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the following command to find process information: $ ps aux | grep foo Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator upon which it is working. This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake for this information Location of the sample files ____________________________ On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM). The 2.2.5 CD-ROM came out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM as a single gzipped tar file /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz.

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

If ya get some good inexpensive suggestions let me know.. It doesn't look like it to me. Sean is wondering whether he will have trouble with the drive, and not expecting any.

Sure. Do: # disklabel -e wd0s1 You'll get the disk label in the editor. The end will look something like: 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] b: 102400 61440 swap # (Cyl. 60*- 162*) c: 2504817 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 2484*) e: 61440 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 60*) f: 2340977 163840 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 162*- 2484*) Change this to: 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] b: 102400 61440 swap # (Cyl. 60*- 162*) c: 2504817 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 2484*) a: 61440 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 60*) e: 61440 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 60*) f: 2340977 163840 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 162*- 2484*) (add a second line identical to the e partition with partition a). Exit the editor and you will have a partition a identical to e. Edit your /etc/fstab to reflect the change (don't use e at all, you need to delete it after rebooting). Reboot and you should have no more problems. You should then delete partition e to keep things tidy. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

I have FreeBSD 2.2.8 Release at home, and all works OK, except ppp. The ppp runs in background, with -auto and -alias switch, connects good and works great, except one trouble: sometimes, when modem hangs up, the ppp doesn't disconnect from serial port, the 'show link' reports the link is in the LCP mode. The phone line isn't locked, but i want for ppp to disconnect after idle timeout (of course, i set timeout in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf), and it's really most of the cases works. It sits and sits a hours, and never redial again (every 4 hours the UUCP-over-tcp executed, so it must redial), so i have my system completely locked out of the net. Somebody have such troubles with native 2.2.8 ppp (not pppd) ? May be, i can add some timeouts for lcp connection (on the server side i have such timeouts) ? --------------- Alex Derevyanko.

I've seen a number of messages about this problem. As far as I can see, it's a bug in the IDE driver. It doesn't happen with Vinum or ccd, and I'm pretty sure it doesn't happen with SCSI drives, though I can't point to a proof right now. We're in the process of changing to a completely new IDE driver, called ata. The old driver is wd. 4.0-RELEASE will include the ata driver as standard, so it's a good time to test it now. If anybody's adventurous, please let me know.

It not a Question but an observation. I have used Linux on and off since 93 and didn't mind it for myself. but FreeBSD is a whole new ball game. I got lost the first time I installed it and etc due to it differences with Linux. But. I love it. I sent 1Hr setting up my first ppp dial on freeBSD when my first linux took me 1 day. I know have no need for Linux other than for the desktop for sound and other such things which FreeBSD doesn't support as much. From this point on anything not requiring any extra things like this will be running FreeBSD. To all those that ask difference between Linux V's FreeBSD. FreeBSD Easy to install, Moderately Hard to configure, Easy to use from then on. I have only been using it know for 3 weeks after I discovered it and thought I would give it a try. I will not be ever running a server on linux again. ------------------------------------------ Linux and Unix Real OS for Real Users To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 17 19:47:30 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from freebie.lemis.com (freebie.lemis.com [192.109.197.137]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 719E314DB2 for ; Fri, 17 Dec 1999 19:47:25 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from grog@freebie.lemis.com) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.3/8.9.0) id OAA93149; Sat, 18 Dec 1999 14:17:07 +1030 (CST) Date: Sat, 18 Dec 1999 14:17:07 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: Jonathon McKitrick , Chris.Smith@raytheon.co.uk Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: final thoughts on debug kernel size Message-ID: <19991218141707.H1108@freebie.lemis.com> References: <0025684A.0058C8C4.00@rslhub.raytheon.co.uk> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0pre2i In-Reply-To: WWW-Home-Page: http://www.lemis.com/~grog X-PGP-Fingerprint: 6B 7B C3 8C 61 CD 54 AF 13 24 52 F8 6D A4 95 EF Organization: LEMIS, PO Box 460, Echunga SA 5153, Australia Phone: +61-8-8388-8286 Fax: +61-8-8388-8725 Mobile: +61-41-739-7062 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Friday, 17 December 1999 at 16:00:21 +0000, Jonathon McKitrick wrote: > > OK, we know the debug kernel takes up more space on the HD.

It's just a simple precaution against an unlikely event. Or don't you buy insurance either? Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.

Another better possibility is to modify the shell's $IFS: OLD_IFS="$IFS" IFS=/ set x $VARIABLE shift IFS="$OLD_IFS" Note the "x" and the shift. This prevents breakage of the contents of $VARIABLE begins with a "-".

The following procedure may be useful for others whose systems cannot tolerate a boot manager. My system has 2 HDDs: wd0 -->Win95 with Ontrack Disk Overlay; wd1 -->FBSD 3.3Release. BootEasy hoses my MBR and wd0 is compressed so I can't use FIPS. Therefore I've had to boot from the Install disks -->kern.flp, quickly interrupting the boot process and typing 1:wd(1,a)/kernel. But I'm lazy, and wanted to automate the deal. Here's how I did it: 1. c:\freebsd\fdimage kern.flp a: --> label it "Boot Disk" 2. reboot off "Boot Disk" 3. Interrupt booting and type 1:wd(1,a)/kernel 4. login as root 5. mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/flp 6. cd /mnt/flp 7. ee boot.config -->add at the end of the file -> 1:wd(1,a)/kernel 8. cd / 9. umount /mnt/flp 10. reboot -->using "Boot Disk" After 5 seconds delay, my system booted off my 2nd HDD. Thanks Ales for pointing me in the right direction. Maybe the above will help someone else. later....duke To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 17 22:29: 3 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from sax.sax.de (sax.sax.de [193.175.26.33]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7AF6314ECE for ; Fri, 17 Dec 1999 22:29:01 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mw@theatre.sax.de) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by sax.sax.de (8.9.3/8.9.3) with UUCP id HAA08104; Sat, 18 Dec 1999 07:28:59 +0100 (CET) Received: by theatre.sax.de (8.9.3/8.6.12-s1) id WAA54468; Fri, 17 Dec 1999 22:26:23 +0100 (CET) Date: Fri, 17 Dec 1999 22:26:22 +0100 From: Martin Welk To: Andrea Venturoli Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: DOS emulator Message-ID: <19991217222622.D46333@theatre.sax.de> References: <199912171920.UAA22746@mbox3.flashnet.it> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0i In-Reply-To: <199912171920.UAA22746@mbox3.flashnet.it>; from a.ventu@flashnet.it on Fri, Dec 17, 1999 at 08:20:18PM +0000 Organization: Private UUCP/Usenet site.

The command is doscmd, and it can be used to run a DOS binary at the command line, open a (BIOS simulation) X window or even boot DOS from a disk image. This is documented in doscmd(1). Furthermore, you need to build a custom kernel with the option VM86 to make the kernel support the virtual machine mode of the x86 (with x >=3 ) CPUs.

On the other hand, I > would much more like to see FreeBSD in that context than SuSE Linux The primary reason why SuSE, RedHat, etc, enjoy commercial success is because they are commercial enterprises with those goals in mind. Riding the wave of Linux hysteria, these companies produce significantly different Operating Systems, although because they all use the Linux kernel, tag "Linux" on the end of their corporate identities, and reap the efforts of the open source community to produce the products that they market. How can FreeBSD maximize the benefit from the Linux hysteria? The approach so far seems to be largely "grassroots" campaigning. With more and more techies discovering the benefits of FreeBSD, it squeaks into the scaffolding of the Internet. I think the latest media blips about FreeBSD, "Even better than Linux?", etc., are exactly what the FreeBSD community needs. The media loves mystery and hype. Were a company to evangelize FreeBSD the way that SuSE and RedHat do for Linux, this hype might reach similar proportions, and the OS could gain similar popularity. This is all, of course, purely speculative. I know nothing about gaining the support of hardware vendors. Just a little armchair philosophy =) -Brent To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Dec 18 1:36:17 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 44FBD14D6A for ; Sat, 18 Dec 1999 01:36:16 -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 CAA24136; Sat, 18 Dec 1999 02:07:31 -0800 (PST) Date: Sat, 18 Dec 1999 02:07:31 -0800 (PST) From: Alfred Perlstein To: Rossetti Carlo Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Freebsd and Postgresql In-Reply-To: <199912180953560200.0016B097@192.168.0.1> 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 Sat, 18 Dec 1999, Rossetti Carlo wrote: > Goodmorning, > > I'm using postgresql under freebsd, but on fisrt step on it I noted that > the variable declaration are different (expecially the SERIAL one) from linux ones, > so I'd like to know if you konw where I can find the postgresql documentation > for freebsd. > > I hope you can help me cause my isp can't. I'm probably not going to be much help directly, but a lot of the postgresql team are FreeBSD users you may want to try on the thier mailing lists: http://www.postgresql.org/doxlist.html Although maybe if you were more specific about what this 'SERIAL' thing is, I could be of more help, what is 'SERIAL' and where can I read up on it?

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi there I'm new to CVSUP and how you use it. I've been following the instructions in Greg Lehey's book. I'm trying to update the ports collection in my FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE system, in an effort to bring them up to date (ssh files are missing from servers etc). Is it OK to update only the ports collection without the rest of the 'world'? Also, how do you do it properly? I think I've stuffed up my ports collection by using CVSUP, as the 5 or so programs I've tried making since all fail. My cvsupfile (/src/cvsup/cvs-cvsupfile) looks like this: *default release=cvs *default host=cvsup.au.freebsd.org *default base=/src/cvsup *default prefix=/usr *default delete *default use-rel-suffix *default compress ports-all and I ran the following command: cvsup -g -L2 /src/cvsup/cvs-cvsupfile which cause it to be busy for a while downloading a fair whack of stuff. But it's put all the guff straight into the /usr/ports heirarchy, is this what's supposed to happen? Or should I have gotten cvsup to bring the stuff down into /src/cvsup/something instead and then checked out what I wanted? I'm a bit lost here as to what you're actually supposed to do with cvsup.

Nice to read this! :-) My experience was similar. I started with Slackware Linux years ago before I moved to FreeBSD (2.0-RELEASE, that time). I had some hard time in the beginning (nobody I knew that time did use it, nobody was there to ask - except the people reading my questions in the newsgroup and mailing list - Joerg Wunsch gave me some valuable hints). After some time, I'd have never moved back if not forced to by special reasons. On a 16 MB 80486 system one could really feel the advantages of the FreeBSD virtual memory engine. Only some weeks ago, I gave a course about Unix installation and system management. Some paticipants decided to install SuSE Linux, some decided for FreeBSD. No doubt, SuSE has some nice tools for beginners (yast or sax) but building a custom Linux kernel is a toture compared to building a FreeBSD kernel. Want up to set a NIS slave server with Linux? Compared to that, it's a child's play to do it with FreeBSD. On the other hand, FreeBSD disk partitioning is more difficult to understand for beginners. You need some time before you see the advantages. Just some observations, I don't want to challenge any Linux user or developer and don't want to start an endless debate. Let's keep friends with the Linux people!

Okay, excellent.

Quite possibly. From section 18.3 of the handbook: "Warning: Be very careful to specify any tag= fields correctly. Some tags are valid only for certain collections of files. If you specify an incorrect or misspelled tag, CVSup will delete files which you probably do not want deleted. In particular, use only tag=. for the ports-* collections." > It's just that I tried 5 different programs and they all failed... > here's the output of `cd /usr/ports/misc/less ; make install`... > > su-2.03# make install > ===> Patching for less-340 > ===> Applying FreeBSD patches for less-340 > Ignoring previously applied (or reversed) patch. > 1 out of 1 hunks ignored--saving rejects to Makefile.in.rej > *** Error code 1 > > Stop. > *** Error code 1 > > Stop. > *** Error code 1 > > Stop. > *** Error code 1 > > Stop. > *** Error code 1 > > Stop. > *** Error code 1 > > Stop. > > su-2.03# more ./work/less-340/Makefile.in.rej > *************** > *** 15,21 **** > LDFLAGS = @LDFLAGS@ > O=o > > - LIBS = @LIBS@ > > prefix = @prefix@ > exec_prefix = @exec_prefix@ > --- 15,21 ---- > LDFLAGS = @LDFLAGS@ > O=o > > + LIBS = -ltermcap > > prefix = @prefix@ > exec_prefix = @exec_prefix@ > > > > > > Cheers > > Jesse > > > -- > Jesse Reynolds - Virtual Artists Pty Ltd - http://www.va.com.au > Email: jesse (at) va.com.au - http://virtual.artists > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message -- "there's a long-standing bug relating to the x86 architecture that allows you to install Windows too ;" -Matthew D.

Interface A goes out to my ISP, B is to a local LAN, C goes to a router provided by the people I work for, and D is to a local lan containing machines I use solely for work. The reason I've got them in one box is basically that I'm cheap :-). Don't want to use more than one if I can get away with it. I've got A firewalled, but some other strange things are happening (not bad things, just inconvenient) that make me want to separate (logically) my two "virtual lans". What I want is this: Packets from A go only to B and from B only to A, and from C only to D and from D only to C. In other words, I want a wall between the AB pair and the CD pair. I have been messing with routing tables, ipfw rules, sysctls, etc., with a startlingly uniform lack of success. Either I break everything, so that nothing gets out, or I get packets going from D to C, but also from D to A, which I don't want. I don't seem to be able to get the right combo, if there is one. Anybody got a clue to how to get this running? Kernel is now 3.4-RC, but was 3.3-STABLE. Basically a stock machine, Interfaces are all 3c509's except for A which is a serial card.

If you have the cdroms, then unpacking the ports tarfile and cvsup'ing on top of that may be faster. good luck, -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sat Dec 18 14:20:15 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from lily.ezo.net (lily.ezo.net [206.102.130.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1EA2914F37; Sat, 18 Dec 1999 14:20:11 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from jflowers@ezo.net) Received: from lily.ezo.net (jflowers@localhost.ezo.net [127.0.0.1]) by lily.ezo.net (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id RAA16950; Sat, 18 Dec 1999 17:19:29 -0500 (EST) Date: Sat, 18 Dec 1999 17:19:28 -0500 (EST) From: Jim Flowers To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Cc: freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org Subject: Natd with Pmtu Discovery 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 Natd does not handle pmtu discovery well when the mtu for the interface it is using is changed, either manually or under program control, after natd is started. The following provides details of why, and a work-around. Problem ------- Gateway router with natd has erratic or poor TCP performance when the outbound (nat) interface is modified after startup or during startup subsequent to launcing natd from rc.network such as from scripts in /usr/local/etc/rc.d or /etc/rc.local. Analysis -------- 1. Natd learns the mtu value of its interface on startup from rc.network following ifconfig or DHCP initialization. 2. Skip startup from a startup script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/skip.sh modifies the mtu value in the kernel interface structure. 3. On receiving a packet to transmit outbound, natd generates an icmp type 3 need-to-fragment packet back to the sending host using the value learned in paragraph 1. 4. The sending host retransmits using this size. The packet is still too large for the outbound interface to transmit. 5. If the sending host happens to be a WinNT with pmtu discovery enabled, paragraphs 3 and 4 are repeated until black hole discovery takes over, if enabled, or forever, if not enabled. The -dynamic flag does not cause natd to learn the new value when the interface mtu is modified. While this problem was discovered in gateways that use both skip and natd on the same interface, it has been confirmed that the problem exists any time the natd interface mtu is modified, either manually or during startup after the natd daemon has been started. Workaround ---------- This behavior can be avoided for the current autostart requirement by delaying the startup of natd until after the interface mtu is set by skip from skip.sh (such as placing the equivalent shell script line in /etc/rc.local). The program name, option flags and interface name will have to be given explicitly as these values from rc.conf are not available in rc.local. Correction ---------- The natd program should learn the modified value of the interface mtu before transmitting need-to-fragment messages. As this method of avoiding fragmentation is becoming more common (and is mandatory in IPV6) this would be a worthwhile modification. Wierd Note ---------- The problem does not appear to occur in 3 gateways that are bit-identical except that they are running unstripped binaries (identical, if stripped) of natd.

It has to be the ide driver, because even with small (<20GB) partitions, the machine would panic and reboot after about 3 hours, with uncorrectable drive errors, requiring a full reinstall. I'm going to give redhat a quick try at it...it's just an rsync server, so I'll have to put away my OS of choice until 4.0-Release comes out next year.

If you don't program in C, the best advice would be "forget it". This sort of work is particularly complicated. It's not for cutting your teeth. You could enquire from the XFree86 people if they have any plans. But if this is an old card, it's probably not worth the weeks of work that it would take.

I have read the Handbook, the Complete FreeBSD, the FAQs, the man pages, and the tutorial that was pointed out at: http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/~rowland/FreeBSD/natd.html I still can't get the most simple natd situation to work, and I hope someone can help me. I have a DSL connection, a FreeBSD machine with two NICs, and a Windows machine with 1 NIC. Both machines connect to the Internet fine via a direct connection to the DSL. In my desired configuration, I cable the two private NICs together and connect the public NIC on the FreeBSD box to the DSL. My Windows setup looks like this: IP Address: 192.168.0.2 Gateway: 192.168.0.1 DNS: 206.13.28.12 [Pacbell DSL] On the FreeBSD box, I have: network_interfaces="pn0 pn1 lo" ifconfig_pn0="inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_pn1="inet A.B.C.D netmask 255.255.255.0" defaultrouter="E.F.G.H" [Pacbell DSL-assigned gateway] gateway_enable="YES" firewall_enable="YES" firewall_type="open" natd_enable="YES" natd_interface="pn1" natd_flags="-u -m -dynamic" In my kernel I have set options IPFIREWALL options IPDIVERT pseudo-device bpfilter 4 And I created the /dev/bpf[0-3] devices. (Though I don't believe bpfilter is necessary, the "tutorial" mentioned above says it is.) Shouldn't this be enough? I'm baffled as to what to check next, or how to check it... pings from either side to the other just time out. I feel there is something fundamental I just don't understand...

The only way I know of is to run 'routed' on the FreeBSD machine, which will make it listen on both networks for routing broadcasts. When one network goes down, it should fall back to the other network. This will only work if the primary routers on both networks are broadcasting RIP or IRDP packets. Check the 'routed' manpage for more information. -- 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 Sat Dec 18 18:51: 8 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from jasper.heartland.ab.ca (jasper.heartland.ab.ca [207.107.228.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7CB5C151B0 for ; Sat, 18 Dec 1999 18:51:05 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dkwiebe@heartland.ab.ca) Received: from heartland.ab.ca (dyn111.heartland.ab.ca [207.107.228.111]) by jasper.heartland.ab.ca (8.9.0/8.9.0) with ESMTP id TAA16272; Sat, 18 Dec 1999 19:37:26 -0700 (MST) Message-ID: <385D9945.D2AB812C@heartland.ab.ca> Date: Sun, 19 Dec 1999 19:49:41 -0700 From: Darren Wiebe Reply-To: dkwiebe@hagenhomes.com Organization: Hagen Homes Ltd.

Why are you using the dynamic flag for natd if your are setting the address in rc.conf? You should only use this if the nat/bsd box is doing DHCP. Can your windows box ping the bsd box when it's on the private side of the bsd box? Are the "link" LEDs on the NICs lit? you need to be using cross-over cables between the two boxes if there isn't a hub between them. Try using the "minimal" rc.firewall rule set from the tutorial instead of the default. I had problems until I put the nat rules AFTER the loopback rules.

Others have also pointed out the IDE driver as the probable suspect. But I'd like to point out that your problems with <20GB partitions most likely has some other cause. I've got a 25GB IBM UltraATA66 drive with a single 25GB partition running with no errors. The system had an uptime of over 15 days with no error before I had to shut it down and move it. --Ludwig Pummer ( ludwigp@bigfoot.com ) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Dec 19 1:41:18 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from inet.chip-web.com (adsl-63-195-43-53.dsl.snfc21.pacbell.net [63.195.43.53]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 8A562151F8 for ; Sun, 19 Dec 1999 01:41:17 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ludwigp@bigfoot.com) Received: (qmail 17769 invoked from network); 19 Dec 1999 09:41:17 -0000 Received: from toy.chip-web.com (@172.16.1.30) by inet.chip-web.com with SMTP; 19 Dec 1999 09:41:17 -0000 Date: Sun, 19 Dec 1999 01:41:17 -0800 (PST) From: Ludwig Pummer X-Sender: ludwigp@toy.chip-web.com To: Steve Heistand Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: ata66 support In-Reply-To: <19991218180211.471081B216@wendell.heistand.org> 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 Sat, 18 Dec 1999, Steve Heistand wrote: > from what I have found on the net so far is that ata66 support wont > be available until the 4.0 release.

There is a small set of patches available for 3.X that lets your run the Promise UltraATA-66 controller (in UltraATA-33 mode, but at least that's an extra 4 ide devices available).

It would be useful to know the ref of your combo-card, it would be easier to tell you which driver to use. Maybe I'm wrong but I'd think that your card is a 3C589* clone, FreeBSD supports them with driver ep (pccard mode) or zp (no generic pccard support activated). A utilities disk is usually shipped with the card that allows you to check irq and i/o adress used. Run it and note values. Once done, boot on FreeBSD disks and on visual config, tweak zp driver to match values previously noted. Continue boot process.

Basically, The FreeBSD box with the connection is configured to use ppp -nat, this works fine for the other FreeBSD boxes on the network, they can reach the internet no problem. However, the Win '98 box can't. The Win '98 box can telnet, FTP and ping the gateway machine but, can't even so much as ping any external addresses. I have set the 'HOSTS' file up in windows, the network card is configured to use the bsd box as gateway, they all have the same subnet 192.168.0.xxx and mask 255.255.255.0. I have tried setting DNS servers to the gateway box and alternatively, the ISP boxes without avail. I can see the Win'98 box pinging away on the network but its just not getting through.

(more info) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Original message: Hello. I installed FreeBSD with the main intent to use it as a gateway/firewall between my LAN and the Internet. I choose 3.3-RELEASE and set up everything on a 486-based machine running at 66 MHz with 16 MB or RAM, but I wasn't able to get connected to my ISP. I read the FAQ, the HandBook, the man pages, the Pedantic PPP Primer, some RFCs and anything else I was able to find, but I didn't get out of it. I asked my ISP, but after one month the only thing they were able to suggest was to upgrade my system. So I'm asking for help here as a last resort before switching to Linux, which is known to work with my ISP, although I think it wouldn't run as smoothly as this devil doing the other tasks this machine has to do. I've tried both kernel pppd and user-level ppp, with similar results: the modem connects and finishes its handshake, then the game is up to LCP which for some reason either doesn't terminate or fails to start the next layer. I'm reporting both logs in the hope someone can make something out of it. My best choice would be ppp, due to its built-in nat and filtering capabilities, but if that is not possible I'm prepared to revert to pppd. In case it matters, this box works right on the LAN side, since it correctly provides DNS, DHCP, WINS and SMB to the other stations I have. Bye & Thanks av. In the meanwhile I found out additional info: I have to use active mode, since my ISP has probably put his side to passive; when my LCP first send its SendConfigReq, it trigger the other side to start. I keep receiving Config Requests from my ISP and my FreeBSD box keeps ACKing them; also it never gets ACKs from the other side. What I ***THINK*** happens is that the packets I sent get discarded, otherwise my ConfigReq should either be ACKed or NACKed, and I should get only one request from the other side, since my box immediately sends an ACK. In case it matters I see I get a few frame with bad FCS just before I get my first ConfigReq from the other side. BTW: The computer I'm using to connect to the Internet in the meanwhile (running with OS/2 4.0), just show the correct behaviour in the logs, i.e. a ConfigReq in both direction and the corresponding ACK from the opposite side, so I don't think it's the ISP side which gives troubles. Has ppp changed in the latest stable branch? Or has it changed in the soon-to-released-if-I-understand-it-well 3.4? Bye & Thanks again av.

What happens when you want to UPGRADE a port or a package? For example, right now I have the port of pine 4.10 installed. I'd like to upgrade this to the latest port of pine 4.21. Do I need to uninstall the old port first? Or will the new port see that I had the old one installed, and upgrade it appropriatly? Basically, I don't want to have both 4.10 AND 4.21 installed. And this applies to any other ports as well, not just pine. I couldn't find this documented in the handbook anywhere, so if someone could clear this up for me, I'd really appreciate it! -Christian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Dec 19 9: 0:50 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from merlin.onsea.com (dyn38-ras1.froglike.co.uk [212.49.225.38]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D184114FB1 for ; Sun, 19 Dec 1999 09:00:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dozprompt@onsea.com) Received: from localhost (dozprompt@localhost) by merlin.onsea.com (8.9.3/8.9.2) with ESMTP id RAA06040; Sun, 19 Dec 1999 17:01:19 GMT (envelope-from dozprompt@onsea.com) X-Authentication-Warning: merlin.onsea.com: dozprompt owned process doing -bs Date: Sun, 19 Dec 1999 17:01:19 +0000 (GMT) From: Cliff Rowley To: Christian Taylor Cc: Freebsd-Questions Subject: Re: Ports question In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > I have a question about ports/packages that's been bugging me for a while > now.

And this applies to any other ports as well, not just pine. If you uninstall the old package/port, any configuration files will be left intact. The same applies to installing the new package/port, configuration files are left alone. Even so, after an upgrade, you should read the documentation in /usr/ports/
//work/. Especially CHANGES. You may find that the structure of the configuration files has changed, and you may need to modify yours as appropriate. The same applies to any software installations on most operating systems.

All freshly cvsup'd. I have installed the ghostscript 55 port to try it on each. On one system (the one I really need ghostscript for the most) ghostscript dumps core when I just give the command 'gs -h' Bus error(core dumped) The other systems do not exhibit this error. If I transfer one of their executables, I get the same bad result on the AMD 450. The problem system has an AMD processor running at 450 MHz. All the rest are at 400 or slower in speed. Someone at a cocktail party told me there might be a timing problem and a cure for it, but I can't find it anywhere. Does anyone else have this problem or can you suggest a fix? Thank you. Wayne M.

When I installed, I used the defaults for the slice sizes of my file system. My problem is, the / directory keeps filling up, so now I would like to change the size of the slices. My questions are as follow: Is it possible to make a backup of the system, change the slices, then do a restore to the original system state? If so, what would be the procedure? In my reading, (Boy, learning all this new stuff can give an old man a headache!), I have come away with the impression that the procedure would involve doing a dump, disklabel, newfs, then restore. Is this the acceptable method? If not, is there a better one?

Check the maililng list archives. About a month ago, someone was talking about adding PCI support to the serial device driver.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Greetings, I've got a machine that has 2 ip addresses bound to one interface (fxp0) - One we'll say is 192.168.142.1, and the other is 192.168.142.2 -- What I'm having problems with is this: I am trying to run 2 ftp daemons on one machine. I was under the impression that I could run 2 ftp daemons, 1 bound to one ip address, and the other bound to the other ip address, and I would be fine with running them both on port 21. This doesn't seem to be the case, because I still get bind errors. What I'm trying to do now, is just run the regular 192.168.142.1 ftp server on port 21, and have the other ftp server run on another port. Then, I was wondering if there is a way to forward all traffic from 192.168.142.2's port 21 to another port that I pick. Is this possible? If you're not getting what I'm trying to say, let me know, and I'll try to explain in greater detail. Thanks, and I appreciate any help anyone can give me. Regards, Mychal L.

However, if you ever want to compile ANOTHER custom kernel, you're going to need to fetch the sources all over again :-) You DID just install the system sources, right? (i.e, /usr/src/sys?) That should be all you need to build and install a new kernel.

It would depend on how sendmail was compiled too (if it has >the ability to use tcp_wrappers libs in the compilation) Running version 3.4, I thought that "wrapping" became an automatic feature, that no longer needed to be enabled? Also, the buliding of the system autocreated (I believe) an example of /etc/hosts.allow. I used that file as my basis, and in that file was: # Sendmail can help protect you against spammers and relay-rapers sendmail : localhost : allow sendmail : ALL : allow So, I'm assuming that sendmail belongs within the hosts.allow file, unless I'm missing something? I guess, another question for this would be "how do you use this to prevent spammers/relay-rapers? Do you deny everyone other than your local host? Since if you do, won't that prevent all mail from coming in?"

However, I have never tried to install all the sources, and then start deleting stuff and still expect compiles to work. :-) There's at least one reference to ../../../include/ in my .depend file, so you would be well off keeping /usr/src/include, as it's only 616K on my Dec 18 3.4-STABLE system. Keeping lib/ as well, would probably be a good idea, although you'll likely be able to get along without it. Basically, Duke, what you might want to do, in the name of experimental science, is try to delete all the directories under /usr/src/ BUT sys/, include/ and lib/, and see if you can successfully make a kernel. If not, rm -rf /usr/src and start installing distributions again :-) According to the defaults in sysinstall, the "kern-developer" option just installs the sys source option... No includes or lib... But I've never installed a system with partial sources, so I can't say for sure where dependencies lie. I'm not as familiar with the source tree as many of the people here, though. -- Ryan Thompson 50% Owner, Technical and Accounts Phone: +1 (306) 664-1161 SaskNow Technologies http://www.sasknow.com #106-380 3120 8th St E Saskatoon, SK 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 Dec 19 13:32:42 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from jordan.llnl.gov (jordan.llnl.gov [128.115.36.14]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BE386151F1 for ; Sun, 19 Dec 1999 13:32:40 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from wea@jordan.llnl.gov) Received: (from wea@localhost) by jordan.llnl.gov (8.9.3/8.9.3) id NAA20685 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Sun, 19 Dec 1999 13:35:11 -0800 Date: Sun, 19 Dec 1999 13:35:11 -0800 From: Ed Alley Message-Id: <199912192135.NAA20685@jordan.llnl.gov> To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: SVGAlib? Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello: I am a newcomer to FreeBSD but not to UNIX. I would like to move to FreeBSD from Linux. I have install FreeBSD on my home PC along with Linux and something from Microsoft (for the family you understand (;->) ). I have recently gotten mad at Linux because they are beginning to bloat up and the kernel (2.2.x) runs slower than the earlier ones. The problem is that I have written alot of software through the years that I would like to port. Most of it went over OK (even my X stuff), however, I have written a large graphics application which uses Svgalib under Linux. I noticed that the ports collection doesn't have that application. Is anyone working on porting Svgalib? If not maybe I can bug the author about it.

I don't think there are any plans to port svgalib. If you need graphics, X is the recommended interface. FreeBSD does have a low-level non-X graphics library called 'libvgl', though, which should be able to handle any VESA mode.

How hard would it be to get ISO images created if not done so already? (perhaps I've overlooked something silly)... If this would require someone's time to do, tell me what needs to be done and I would volunteer my time to create the images and make available for others.

Any user who is member of the "operator" group can run dumps. dump(8) doesn't go through the normal file API but rather reads UFS filesystems directly by way of the raw device. If you check your /dev, you'll see that disk nodes are readable for group operator, and tape devices are writable. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Dec 19 18:15:49 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mailhost.cle.ameritech.net (mpdr0.cleveland.oh.ameritech.net [206.141.223.14]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 91AE5151FA for ; Sun, 19 Dec 1999 18:15:47 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from zidarf@zidar.com) Received: from zdidesk ([199.179.177.11]) by mailhost.cle.ameritech.net (InterMail v4.01.01.07 201-229-111-110) with SMTP id <19991220021547.CFFW17880.mailhost.cle.ameritech.net@zdidesk> for ; Sun, 19 Dec 1999 21:15:47 -0500 From: "Frank J.

Jeff > Phillips Whilst we're all in an apologetic frame of mind, I'll apologise in advance for wasting bandwidth and leading everyone astray. I think this all depends on where the X server on the X terminal is going for run-time configuration information. And it wouldn't be XFree86 on dedicated hardware (unless the X terminal was some sort of i386 box, but then why not...). Granted, I'm no expert on X terminals, but I'm envisioning an embedded X server, one that doesn't have a hard disk or any kind of permanent storage (such an entity may or may not exist). By the time the X server is up and running, it's already trying to connect with a host to do its display management, and it's done all the configuring it's going to do. Maybe there's some sort of EPROM setup utility or (gasp) DIP switch on the side of the X terminal box that sets up the X server's bit depth. Perhaps the X server can be made to read in a configuration file over an NFS-mounted filesystem, or after login, or get it over bootp... As I said, Read The Fine Material that came with the X terminal.

I couldn't find anything much except warnings that it's hard :-) I also tried to use picobsd (network) but couldn't get the devices made without MAKDEV.

However, I believe that you first should analyze why your / fills up. When I started this a couple of years ago I used /root just as any other account, and since it is located in /, the latter filled up. Remedy was to keep next to nothing in /root, but use the toor account for storage, where toor lives in /home/toor. Another early incident made me use symlinks for /var and /tmp, they are now on my /usr partition. Having a small /var gave printing problems when the spool file was too large and a small /tmp filled up during /usr/libexec/locate.updatedb, which is run on a weekly basis. So, in toto, I think you are better off not reinstalling. Though reinstalls make you understand some aspects of the install procedure - which could be nice to know... /M ---------------------------------- Michael Josefsson, MSEE mj@isy.liu.se This message was sent by XFMail running on FreeBSD 3.1 ---------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 20 0:28:44 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from gwdu60.gwdg.de (gwdu60.gwdg.de [134.76.10.60]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 245E514D88 for ; Mon, 20 Dec 1999 00:28:42 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kheuer@gwdu60.gwdg.de) Received: from localhost (kheuer@localhost) by gwdu60.gwdg.de (8.9.2/8.9.2) with ESMTP id JAA34519; Mon, 20 Dec 1999 09:28:37 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from kheuer@gwdu60.gwdg.de) Date: Mon, 20 Dec 1999 09:28:37 +0100 (CET) From: Konrad Heuer To: courtney@whtz.com Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: BASIC Programs In-Reply-To: <8525684C.0076389A.00@mail.whtz.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=X-UNKNOWN Content-Transfer-Encoding: QUOTED-PRINTABLE Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Sun, 19 Dec 1999 courtney@whtz.com wrote: > hey everyone- I have a program that was written in BASIC on an dos machin= e, > is there any way that with the source code I can get it to run on Freebsd= ? > If not can someone walk me through installing and configuring WINE to run > the program in dos-under-BSD?

Run a program with a virtual address space of about 3 x real memory on a Linux and FreeBSD system, listen to the noise of your hard disk and wait for the results. Even try to kill that process from a shell. After that, you'll be happy with FreeBSD! :-) To my mind, Linux VM suffers from the missing possibility to completely swap processes out. Pure paging is not a good idea when the VM system is under very heavy load. Surely, someone with better knowledge about the VM archtitecture of both systems could give a better explanation. I tried to do some measurements and found that the elapsed time needed to execute a program like such a one mentioned above is at less twice as large under Linux compared to the elapsed time under FreeBSD. > >FreeBSD disk partitioning is more difficult to understand for beginners. > >You need some time before you see the advantages. >=20 > And just what are those advantages? Advantage 1: You don't need to create MS-compatible partitions on a hard disk exclusively used by FreeBSD. Thus, no MS operating system can do any harm to such a disk. Advantage 2: You're accustomed to UNIX style partitioning. Thus, no problem to install Solaris or Compaq UNIX or FreeBSD on Alpha regarding partitioning of the disk. Advantage 3: Rarely you need more than one BIOS partition (or disk slice in FreeBSD slang) for FreeBSD even you want some more then one filesystem. Ok, you can use some extended BIOS partitions for Linux installation but who does? Most people I know who install Linux use two BIOS partitons (one for swap) and put everything into one and only one filesystem. Horribly, what's in the case of a serious damage to that root file system? You may loose all your data! The FreeBSD sysinstall is able to create three file systems by default because FreeBSD does its own partitioning within the one slice. If / is damaged you can still mount /usr from the fixit system to save your important data. And you strongly reduce write operations to / which may cause problems in case of power or system failure!

Well, the clean way is to do a "make release" from the sources, which will also create ISO images. But there is an easier way: you can simply put the FTP installation tree on a CD-R. You can then install from such a CD using the standard kern.flp and mfsroot.flp.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG We have several old BSDI machines with a few thousand accounts we would really like to move over to FreeBSD. The old BSDI boxen have encrypted passwords based on DES, and obviously FreeBSD by default uses the MD5 algorithm. We can quite easily bring all the BSDI users across to FreeBSD, after installing the DES port from ftp.internat.freebsd.org. Sadly, from that point on all new accounts have DES passwords, not MD5. Now DES is nice and standard, but also eminently crackable. In addition, the FreeBSD project seems to have standardized on MD5, and hence appears to be "the way of the future". So: is there a way to have both DES and MD5 support on a box, but have MD5 as the default? This would sort of be the reverse of the current situation, where MD5 and DES libs are both installed, but DES is default. We really only want DES as a legacy, "if we must" option. Any help/suggestions appreciated. Nick. -- From a Sun Microsystems bug report (#4102680): "Workaround: don't pound on the mouse like a wild monkey."

CVS already contains the tagged sources which make up 3.4-RELEASE and STABLE afterwards. 3.4-RELEASE will be pressed on CD, but ofcourse development just continues.

You may use pkg_delete to remove them, then download the latest version of the package, or port, and install it. If you keep a ports directory tree, you can use make deinstall (or was it uninstall?) to remove it, and once again install the latest port in it's place.

As far as I know, this is still a limitation of FreeBSD -- our boot blocks and/or loader (not sure) don't work for partitions beyond the 1GB limit.

The release tag has been laid down in the repository.

Your telnetd is probably taking ages timing out against a non-existant Kerberos server. Well, that's one possibility, anyway. :-) See the instructions on removing Kerberos, at: http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/admin.html#AEN2024 Alternatively, if you're prepared to do another ``make world'', try making sure that "MAKE_KERBEROS4=yes" is commented out in /etc/make.conf.

You're not missing anything.

No and yes. :-) Using TCP Wrappers for sendmail is only really useful for special cases, for example for relay-only hosts that don't accept incoming connections, or hosts that only accept incoming connections from a limited number of mail gateways.

If so, are you using natd, or ipnat (ipfilter)? I found that icq worked horribly with natd. I have a feeling that it wasn't handling the incoming UDP packets from the ICQ server properly, so the server was thinking I was offline. Then ICQ would send its keep-alive and I would jump back online. Using ipfilter to do NAT for me fixed this problem, and I haven't used natd since. At any rate, I finally installed socks5, and told ICQ to use that, and it's been working beautifully ever since. This would probably be the easiest solution, since it doesn't involve any sort of NAT at all. Hope this helps, -Christian > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of stephen > Sent: Monday, December 20, 1999 5:16 AM > To: questions@freebsd.org > Subject: icq temporarly disconnects > > > Hello > I am running 3.3 stable with 32 ram on a 486, and it rocks... > It was shakey when i mixed parity and non parity ram, but that's > the past... > The present problem, well anoyance is icq ??? > the main reason for nat was so everyone on the network would be able to > chat, but for somereason, icq keeps disconnecting, and reconnecting ??? > is there something i can do to keep the connection constant ??? > everyone has taken me off their list, so it doesn't keep saying user is > onine every 10 minutes > > thanks stephen > > > > 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 Mon Dec 20 5:12:11 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from weg.com.br (weg.com.br [200.215.119.129]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3B93F14FCC for ; Mon, 20 Dec 1999 05:12:04 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from fatboy@linuxbr.com.br) Received: by weg.com.br from localhost (router,SLMail V2.7); Mon, 20 Dec 1999 10:06:44 -0200 Received: by weg.com.br from jackson.weg.com.br (130.0.10.196::mail daemon; unverified,SLMail V2.7); Mon, 20 Dec 1999 10:06:43 -0200 Message-ID: <002601bf4aea$e66effa0$c40a0082@weg.com.br> From: "Jackson Donadel" To: "Sheldon Hearn" Cc: References: <86534.945689435@axl.noc.iafrica.com> Subject: Re: slow login Date: Mon, 20 Dec 1999 11:05:32 -0200 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2314.1300 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG this don4t sound good i have a Cheapbytes cdrom, and select to NOT use the foreign encryptation code, i make a cvsup with a brazilian server(cvsup.br.FreeBSD.org) using this cvsup.conf # Supfile Genirico /etc/supfile-generico # *default tag=RELEASE_3 *default host=cvsup.br.FreeBSD.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr/ncvs *default release=cvs *default delete use-rel-suffix *default compress # Fontes do Sistema # A mega-colegco "src-all" baixa todas as colegues individuais "src-*", exceto "src-crypto", # "src-eBones" e "src-secure". src-all # Ports # A mega-colegco "src-all" baixa todas as colegues individuais "ports-*" ports-all Last month i use the same /usr/ncvs downloaded from cvsup server to update my machine and this problem don4t occur.

If a year is how long your next overhaul will need to last, you should probably wait for 4.0-RELEASE, which is expected to be cut mid-January. Ciao, Sheldon.

I am having a bit of trouble. I have read the README.serial in /usr/src/sys/i386/boot/bisoboot. It looks pretty straightfoward. Howeverr I did get my self in an interesting position by puting -h in /boot.config before I had thouroughly checked everything out. I have now recovered from that, however. Here is the situation. I had com1 set up for a serial mouse, so I know it works. I diasble moused in /etc/rc.conf. I have a wyse terminal that I had pluged inot a terminal server, so I know it works. It's set to 9600 1 stop and no parity. I have tried both with and without a null modem, but I can't seem to get any communications to the terminal. I turned on the getty for serial port 1 in /etc/ttys, rebooted, and I still don't see a login prompt. Here is the questiom, what handshaking is FreeBSD expecting? Hardwar (DTR/DSR) software (XON/XOFF), both? Any sugestions would be greatly appreciated. BTW with the -h flag in boot.config, the machine hangs very early in the boot process. rtx_loader or something like that, I think. -- Stan Brown stanb@netcom.com 404-996-6955 Factory Automation Systems Atlanta Ga. -- Look, look, see Windows 95.

The spool will be ~ 20 Gbyte, almost no binary groups, only very few alt.* groups, and at peak hours there won't be more than ~ 100 readers in parallel, I guess, so it's not a very big server. However, this is the first time that I have to set up a news server, and I'm concerned about stability and performance. I've heard that there were issues with INN and mmap() under FreeBSD -- have these problems been solved? Is it safe to run INN 2.2.2 on FreeBSD 3.4? By the way, I intend to use CNFS to improve performance. Does it make sense to use Soft-updates in this case? (I've also heard that reader performance is very slow in INN 2.2.x if CNFS is used, because of the format of the overview DB... The problem is supposed to be fixed in 2.3, but 2.3 is still "alpha quality" and not for production... *sigh*) Regards Oliver -- Oliver Fromme, Leibnizstr. 18/61, 38678 Clausthal, Germany (Info: finger userinfo:olli@dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de) "In jedem Stück Kohle wartet ein Diamant auf seine Geburt" (Terry Pratchett) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 20 6:10:39 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from monterosa.urbanet.ch (monterosa.urbanet.ch [195.202.193.104]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 969391529E for ; Mon, 20 Dec 1999 06:10:33 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from security@aeschbacher.com) Received: (qmail 7517 invoked from network); 20 Dec 1999 14:10:31 -0000 Received: from unknown (HELO aeschbacher.com) (194.38.83.108) by monterosa.urbanet.ch with SMTP; 20 Dec 1999 14:10:31 -0000 Message-ID: <385EB774.13B922A8@aeschbacher.com> Date: Mon, 20 Dec 1999 15:10:44 -0800 From: Stefan Aeschbacher X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7C-SGI [en] (X11; I; IRIX 6.5 IP32) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: cron error message Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi I get some strange error messages from cron.

I doubt it, at least in my case... the machine I first attempted it on had 160MB of ram, and I recreated the issue with the same drives on a totally dissimilar machine but similar sources with 256MB of ram.

Although I finally got it working with vinum, I understand this sentiment completely. I just wish someone who had the ability to solve the problem had large IDE hard drives and saw what's happening.

My / partition (wd0s1a) is 4GB but with LBA it is under 1023 cyls. The 13.1GB UDMA33 drive was split into the 4GB / partition and then the rest is what I called /usr4. If it wasn't so much fun to backup and redo, I would do it much different now with a much smaller / partition. That is part of the learning experience.

So the freebsd bootloader 'sees' the DOS partition (fat32) which is the second partition and is above 1024 cylinders but when i want to boot with F2 the windows system i just hear a beep and it doesn't boot. I have to se the boot flag on the windows partition and if i want to boot freebsd to set the boot flag back to the bsd partition. Can you help me ?

The ecb_crypt is what I have been using, but I can't get it to encrypt anything. So then I tried the encrypt routine, no luck either. when I try and compile I get an error saying that encrypt is not present on the system (I did install the des stuff from /stand/ sysinstall).

If I turn off DMA in the bios, the errors go away, but I assume so does DMA (?). (There are separate PIO/DMA mode settings in the bios for each IDE device, but it seems like these are only meaningful if the general DMA setting is set?) I've tried UDMA cables, and updated the bios (to v. 1008), with no effect. The disks are set up as a vinum mirror, if that's relevant. The board supports UDMA/33, but not UDMA/66. So I tried using an IBM utility to set the drives to use UDMA/33 rather than negotiate the speed, but that didn't help. I've also tried the same thing in another machine with Quantum KA disks, a similar ASUS board, a slightly earlier version of the bios, and FreeBSD 3.3-STABLE, also with vinum -- with exactly the same result. Any pointers/help would be appreciated.

Either the port maintainer (though this would have no effect on people who don't use the ports, or (heaven forbid) don't use FreeBSD), or the ssh2 people. You can find the port maintainer on the port's makefile's MAINTAINER line. There's probably a readme or something in the ssh2 tarball telling you who to send contributions, etc, to. -- 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 Mon Dec 20 11: 4:16 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from monsoon.mail.pipex.net (monsoon.mail.pipex.net [158.43.128.69]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 486021535A for ; Mon, 20 Dec 1999 11:04:12 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mark@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org) Received: (qmail 12547 invoked from network); 20 Dec 1999 19:04:08 -0000 Received: from userbe91.uk.uudial.com (HELO marder-1.)

The only limitation is that you have to press RETURN after "any key" (unless "any key" happens to be RETURN ;) ). I'm not sure of a way of doing it without having to press RETURN in sh(1).

I've got a FreeBSD 3.3 box (soon to be 4.0, since it's SMP and I want wine to work) that I'm planning on setting up as a dual-homed (filtering) firewall, with a static IP address from the cable company. My network printer I plan on giving an RFC-reserved address. The two Win9X boxes I plan on assigning IP addresses with the cable companies DHCP servers. IPFW and bridging seem to handle all the problems, except for one; the cable company uses a different network range and netmask for their dynamic and static addresses, and in fact has multiple networks that they use for DHCP, so you can have two computers in the same household that are on different subnets. Oh, and did I fail to mention that they don't seem to be able to handle machines on the same segment but different networks talking to each other? The firewall is also a SAMBA server, so the machines do talk to each other. So, my question is, when bridging between two interfaces, and an IP address comes in on one side that you want to go back out that same side, but to an address that doesn't match that interface/netmask, what can be done to make this work? The easiest solution would be to make the firewall a proxy rather than just packet filtering, but I hate to have to mess with the firewall every time a new instant messaging program or online game comes out. Paying for two extra static IP addresses is probably not feasible, at $10 a month each. I thought of having the machine use DHCP to configure itself, and have an alias for the static IP address. As long as all three IP addresses come from the same pool, this should work. Maybe I'll need to see if the multiple netmasks is a common problem, or if that was just something transitory while they were renumbering. so, I guess my question is, has anyone already wrestled this problem into submission?

The primary OS disk is a IBM 4.5 UW SCSI drive which is da0. da1 is another 4.5 UW IBM drive which is GOING to be used for mirroring the OS disk (right now its doing nothing). da2 is a 18 gig RAID setup on a DPT Raid card using an externel 3 position RAID box that is mounted as /var/mail and /var/spool/mqueue. dpt0: rev 0x02 int a irq 12 on pci0.10.0 dpt0: DPT PM2144UW FW Rev. 07M1, 1 channel, 64 CCBs da0 at dpt0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device da0: Tagged Queueing Enabled da0: 4357MB (8924999 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 555C) da1 at dpt0 bus 0 target 1 lun 0 da1: Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device da1: Tagged Queueing Enabled da1: 4357MB (8924999 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 555C) da2 at dpt0 bus 0 target 2 lun 0 da2: Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device da2: 17365MB (35565440 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 2213C) My problem is that multiple times per day (at least 5 times or so per hour) the machine stops responding for anywhere from 5-15 seconds. It still answers incoming connections, eg; telnet to port 25 and the connection is established, but I get nothing from the server, no identification or anything. Same thing with any other port. When I am on the machine locally the console locks and I cannot input until this period is over. I have been trying to trouble shoot it down, and it seems when the KB/t hits 64.00 on the raid is when it locks. tty da0 da1 da2 cpu tin tout KB/t tps MB/s KB/t tps MB/s KB/t tps MB/s us ni sy in id 0 76 0.00 0 0.00 0.00 0 0.00 64.00 1 0.06 1 0 1 0 98 Where can I begin to figure out what this problem is? Is it the block size that I built the RAID with? Could it be bad memory on the RAID card or a bad RAID card? I appreciate any help anyone can give me. GVB (On a side note.. does anyone know if there has been any RAID management software released that will work with FreeBSD and this card?)

We are debating moving to 3.3 or 3.4 of FreeBSD, or abandoning FreeBSD in favor of Redhat Linux, version 6.1. I'm fighting against Linux and need some information about FreeBSD that I couldn't find at freebsd.org or elsewhere on the Net: What version of BIND is in the 3.3 and 3.4 versions? What version of Kerberos is supported? Any real time O/S extensions? FreeBSD run on any hardware besides x86? Any *facts* on which is more stable? Any *facts* on which is better for TCP/IP? Do we have to share with the world the source code for our application software, or device drivers? Same or different with Linux? Anyone know about network management software called Dorado? Seems to interface proprietary systems to SNMP. They support FreeBSD? If you answer any of these questions, would you please indicate the source of your information.

Hello,
 
I understand from your literature = that freebsd=20 will run binaries compiled on bsdi or linux 'out of the box'. Can I = assume that=20 it is also backward compatble? I wanted to comile modules on freebsd = that would=20 run on bsdi (and possibly linux) in addition to freebsd.
 
Any thoughts?

Same thing happened to me. I lost /var, including my pkg database, of course, so i opted to reinstall. I learned my lesson. But just recently, i correctly symlinked /var and /tmp to /usr... and it worked. I find that for a newbie, using midnight commander simplifies such procedures greatly. -jm To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 20 15:21:55 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from ns1.ibroadcast.net (ns1.ibroadcast.net [216.145.30.2]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 75577153F2 for ; Mon, 20 Dec 1999 15:21:52 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from majid@ibroadcast.net) Received: from darthmaul ([216.145.29.142]) by ns1.ibroadcast.net (8.9.3/8.8.8) with SMTP id PAA15808; Mon, 20 Dec 1999 15:21:25 -0800 (PST) X-Intended-For: questions@FreeBSD.org Message-ID: <027d01bf4afe$11299670$8e1d91d8@ibroadcast.net> From: "Majid Almassari" To: "Andy Bailey" Cc: "questions@FreeBSD.ORG" References: Subject: Re: Question about Ip's Date: Mon, 20 Dec 1999 15:22:45 -0000 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 5.00.2314.1300 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG man ifconfig or edit the rc.conf file for permenant changes. -- Majid Almassari, MSEE, MCP.

I have a user named karen, who belongs to 10 different groups. Since updating to proftpd pre9 (I believe this is what triggered this change - but I can't be sure), she seems to be having a problem getting into only one of the areas of the site that she is included in a group for. /etc/group (snippets) karen:*:6001: nhl:*:6100:sports,karen,nhl,rangers,redwings,flyers..... (12 more entries follow - all on one line) nfl:*:6200:sports,karen,nfl,jaguars,chiefs,patriots.... (4 more entries follow - all on one line) # id karen uid=6001(karen) gid=6001(karen) groups=6001(karen) 6100(nhl) 6200(nfl) (7 more groups follow) from vipw karen:password:6001:6001::0:0:Karen Jones:/www/home/htdocs/./:/bin/ftponly Naturally, the /bin/ftponly is being used to jail her to only this area of the server. That shell is valid, I have about 100 other users all using the same one and no-one else seems to be having a problem. Now, if I ftp in using Karen's id, I can access what seems to be every one of the group areas of the site except for nhl If I go into the nfl area, I can upload files fine, same with others, however, whenever I go into the nhl area, I get a permission denied error under /www/home/htdocs, I have the following (snippets) drwxrwxr-x 37 nfl nfl 3584 Dec 20 16:46 nfl drwxrwxr-x 51 nhl nhl 4096 Dec 17 21:45 nhl so the permissions appear to be identical on both directories. I'm pretty sure it doesn't have anything to do with the number of subdirectories, because I added karen to another group with 57 subdirectories, and I could upload a file fine there. Also, I can add her to other groups and then she can get in there fine. If I take her back out of the group, just as expected, I get a permission denied error. I know it can't be a quota problem, because karen can upload that file in other places... This is just really weird and I don't know where else to look. I'm running 2.2.8 in case that matters, along with proftpd pre9. If anyone has any ideas, I'd really appreciate any advice / guidance on where else to look - before I lose all my hair :) Jerry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 20 16:40:21 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail1.isys.net (mail1.isys.net [193.96.224.45]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 0DAEB14E79 for ; Mon, 20 Dec 1999 16:40:18 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from torri@on-line.de) Received: from on-line.de [195.64.97.80] by mail1.isys.net with esmtp (Exim 1.73 #1) id 120DQG-0003Df-00; Tue, 21 Dec 1999 01:45:04 +0100 Message-ID: <385EDAB5.2ABE43B9@on-line.de> Date: Tue, 21 Dec 1999 02:41:09 +0100 From: Torri Mahncke X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.08 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Sheldon Hearn Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Can't build a kernel References: <86456.945688773@axl.noc.iafrica.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Sheldon Hearn wrote: > On Sun, 19 Dec 1999 00:04:57 +0100, Torri Mahncke wrote: > > > loading kernel > > ld: invalid argument to -T > > *** Error code 1 > > > > Stop. > > > > I'm trying to compile under FreeBSD 3.3 and I am using a current > > /usr/sbin/config. > > I hope you don't mean that you're trying to build a 3.3 kernel using a > 4.0-CURRENT copy of config? :-) > the config was my first suspect too, but no, it's not the guilty: my "current" is FreeBSD 3.3 and just to make sure that I run the correct version of config I rebuilt it from /usr/src/usr.sbin/config > Have you tried this: > > cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf > config -r MYCONFIG > cd ../../compile/MYCONFIG > make depend && make yes - that' just about what I usually do to rebuild a kernel :-| > > > Ciao, > Sheldon. > > 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 Mon Dec 20 16:43:40 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from typhoon.mail.pipex.net (typhoon.mail.pipex.net [158.43.128.27]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 9AA15152DB for ; Mon, 20 Dec 1999 16:43:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mark@dogma.freebsd-uk.eu.org) Received: (qmail 14085 invoked from network); 21 Dec 1999 00:43:32 -0000 Received: from useraj78.uk.uudial.com (HELO marder-1.)

The text that appears in inverse video on the console is underlined (f^H_o^H_o^H_ in the output from man(1)) and appears as such in an xterm. The termcap(5) entry for the console (cons25) has no underline attributes defined and in /usr/src/usr.bin/more/screen.c if there is no underline attribute defined for the terminal it uses "standout mode", i.e. inverse video. If Alexey wants underlining to appear as yellow on black as he says then in /usr/share/misc/termcap change the line :tc=cons25w: in the definition of cons25|ansis|ansi80x25:\ to :us=\E[40;34;1m:ue=\E[m:tc=cons25w: ^^ ^^ || fg colour || bg colour then, as root, run ``cd /usr/share/misc ; cap_mkdb termcap'' and then try ``man chmod'' on the console.

I have NT4 on one machine and BSD 3.4-RC on another. My modem is on the BSD machine and the two machines are connected by ethernet. The BSD machine dials out for either of them. I preferred to hardcode any ip addresses on the NT4 client; not a hardcoded "disconnected" ip address for itself or the BSD machien, not my isp's dns servers, no hosts files, etc.. I have the BSD machine running dhcpd; the bsd machine is something like the default dhpcd gateway and the "normal" default gateway. Once I knew what settings to edit, it was easy.

I've made multiple sets of floppies to rule out bad media as the problem. At the same repeatable point, the installer says: "A signal 11 was caught - I'm saving what I can and shutting [sic] If you can reproduce the problem, please turn Debug on in the Options menu for the extra information it provides in debugging problems like this." The last two debug lines are: "DEBUG: Command `/stand/gunzip < /stand/help/distributions.hlp.gz > /tmp/.doc/doc.tmp' returns status of 0 DEBUG: Signal 11 caught! That's bad!" What steps am I taking on the install? 1) boot from the two floppies 2) skip the user/device config (I've also deleted unused devices and this changes nothing) 3) select "custom" from the main menu 4) go through the "Options," "Partition," and "Label" menus without a hitch. (I usually turn Debugging on and change the Media Timeout to "30" in the Options menu) 5) select "Distributions" from the "Choose Custom Installation Options" menu 6) select "Custom" from the "Choose Distributions" menu 7) and boom. sig 11.

I suggest you check your local "Yellow Pages" for 'Cabling' and /or 'Electrical' and organise someone to run some CAT5 cable around your site. The good thing about this is that you can run all sorts of stuff over it, not just serial data (as you want now) but also network data, telephone and even audio. Not on exactly the same piece of wire at the same time ;') but definitely the way to go. If you're an electrician, you can 'do it yourself', but I would recommend a professional cable electrician - as he can create the runs of cable, install the faceplates and the patch panels and all the extras required. Oh, it won't be "cheap", but it will be "right". hth, |-| To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Dec 20 19: 9: 2 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.twave.net (twave.net [206.100.228.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 7FF1F14D44 for ; Mon, 20 Dec 1999 19:08:57 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from brameld@twave.net) Received: from [208.219.234.62] by mail.twave.net (NTMail 3.03.0018/1.abwg) with ESMTP id ma484366 for ; Mon, 20 Dec 1999 22:08:26 -0500 Message-ID: <385EEF6E.1E2DE4B6@twave.net> Date: Mon, 20 Dec 1999 22:09:34 -0500 From: Walter Brameld X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (X11; U; FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Peeter Pirn Cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: terminal room cabling References: <385EE3EB.794BDF32@rhubarb.fwi.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Peeter Pirn wrote: > I want to set up remote Wyse terminals about 60 ft. away (in another > room) from the host 3.2-RELEASE machine.

These progs merely pass sequences to terminal saying something like "start underlining here" and "end underlining here", same thing with bold. Thats why on cons25 it's different than on vt100, provided that man, more, and less the same. My guess would be browing thru /etc/termcap.

I don't particularly like BSD/OS but its SMART controller support seems quite good (even has pretty userland utilities). We have a number of long-term customers with FreeBSD systems installed by us looking to upgrade (hardware/freebsd). Having read the 3.4 release notes it seems all mention of Compaq SMART support has disappeared but I presume the ida driver is still in there somewhere? Is it ever going to make it into GENERIC? Anyway, I think I've worked out (by searching the archives) how to build a boot floppy to support the controller for installation onto a mirrored pair but I'm still interested in hearing about what other people have discovered. Please let me know Compaq model and FreeBSD version. I will post a summary (if possible) to the list. Anyone got anything heavy duty happening on one of these puppies? cheers!

FC-AL and NetApps are hardly comparable. FC-AL is just a new media for SCSI (FC-AL uses the SCSI protocol). It is just real fast (100MB/s), supports lots of simultaneous devices, and supports autonegotiation. In fact NetApp filers uses FC-AL to connect disk shelves to the head unit. > Carl.

If any one > can help or point me in the right direction. Thanks. Multiple ip's to one iface is done with natd (man natd, it's already there). This enables you to have several machines on a local net accessing the outside through one iface. The internal IP's are not visible from the outside. It does not let external machines distinguish your internal boxes though. E.g. you cannot ftp from the outside to your internal machines, only to your 'tun0-box'. There is nothing wrong in letting your 'tun0-box' also handle mail and have a http-server. Well, apart from some security issues. Many sites will have the http-server as a standalone box with everything firewalled except port 80. And let mail be handled by yet another firewalled box etc. But that's going a bit far into the subject... [Droning on] Unless you are paranoid or are very intrusion prone I would not bother with the firewalling stuff.

OK, either 'mount_dos /dev/fd0 /mnt' and you will find your diskette in directory /mnt. (this assumes 'a:' is the one you want and that you don't mind mounting at /mnt). Then copy files from /mnt using ordinary cp command. Don't forget to 'umount /mnt' before removing the floppy! ...Or, install mtools from the ports/packages and access the drive with 'mdir a:', 'mcopy a:\filename .' etc. It make life easier really since you don't need to explicitly mount (or umount) the diskette every time.

One way to - easily, not foolproof - check memories is to run a make world and if it does without Signal 11, you're in the clear. I'd try replacing the memory. Or perhaps even just remove a bank or two, perhaps the error is in the upper memory - in which case the problem would vanish if they are not plugged in. Or swap them around.

Thanks for the advice, but I've tried the exact same sequence of steps on three completely different machines (dual p3/500, p200, 486/80) and gotten the same results.

There was a 'NIS Startup Instructions' article sometime ago. For amd I just this weekend got it up and running. Not much to do IF you do it correctly! I've had my fair share of troubles with it.. Hard mounting (injecting lines into /etc/fstab) is OK if all boxes are up but should your farm go down they may boot waiting for some other box to get nfs up and all sorts of problems... A 'soft' mount using amd is much cleaner as the mount is done on an 'as needed' basis. Feel free to mail me privately should you have any questions. /M man exports gives you the syntax. Also keep mountd and nfsd running. Send a kill -1 to them (one or both?) if you have updated /etc/exports. Then you should be able to mount a la 'mount vanheden:/home'. You also should have a peek at man portmap for this to work. The portmapper is a kind of superserver that listens for a number of numbered services and spawns off these services as required. (Much like a INT 21 in the MS-DOS environment, excpet is networked, does more than that etc) /M again ---------------------------------- Michael Josefsson, MSEE mj@isy.liu.se This message was sent by XFMail running on FreeBSD 3.1 ---------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 21 1: 5:16 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de (dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de [139.174.243.252]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2538014E63 for ; Tue, 21 Dec 1999 01:05:14 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from olli@dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de) Received: (from olli@localhost) by dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA09867 for freebsd-questions@freebsd.org; Tue, 21 Dec 1999 10:05:12 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from olli) Date: Tue, 21 Dec 1999 10:05:12 +0100 (CET) From: Oliver Fromme Message-Id: <199912210905.KAA09867@dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de> To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: press any key to continue in sh Organization: Administration TU Clausthal Reply-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 RZTUC(3) PL2] Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Dan Larsson wrote in list.freebsd-questions: > How do I best produce a 'press any key to continue' prompt in sh? echo -n "Press any key to continue...

It (the BIOS) can't boot anything above 1024 cylinders not even a wintendo partition. So: fdisk your HD and make sure that all BOOTABLE partitions start within 1024 cyls. Alternatively (not sure in your case) go into BIOS setup and try another geometry. C,H,S can often be transformed into C/2,H*2,S repetitively until H=255. Hopefully this brings your cylinder count down under 1024. This is not as dramatic as it sounds: it's OK to only let / reside within 1024, the /usr, /var and swap could not care less. And make sure the 2nd slice begins within 1024 too! /M ---------------------------------- Michael Josefsson, MSEE mj@isy.liu.se This message was sent by XFMail running on FreeBSD 3.1 ---------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 21 1: 6:51 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from isy.liu.se (isy.liu.se [130.236.48.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 455FD1502D for ; Tue, 21 Dec 1999 01:06:49 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mj@isy.liu.se) Received: from lagrange.isy.liu.se (lagrange.isy.liu.se [130.236.49.127]) by isy.liu.se (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id KAA01011; Tue, 21 Dec 1999 10:06:47 +0100 (MET) Message-ID: X-Mailer: XFMail 1.3 [p0] on FreeBSD X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MIME-Version: 1.0 In-Reply-To: <000f01bf4b0a$e83978e0$02010101@radu> Date: Tue, 21 Dec 1999 10:06:45 +0100 (CET) From: Micke Josefsson To: Radu Malica Subject: RE: Freebsd on a 15.2 hdd Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On 20-Dec-99 Radu Malica wrote: > hello i tried to install FreeBSD on a ibm djna - 351250 15.2 gb harddisk > I made the freebsd partition on the first 1024 cylinders because i know some > bootloaders halt if installed on a partition above 1024.

The signal 11 that Mike described is a known bug in the 3.4-R version of sysinstall. Just don't use the "custom" distribution menu. Use one of the other predefined distributions. After the freshly installed system has booted, add or remove distributions manually.

You can do it as many times as you like for all of your IPs. Worked for my friend with his 80 odd IPs. To remove an ip just do the same but have "-alias" instead.

Default language switcher is CAPS-LOCK. I wanted to change this key to CTRL-SHIFT (this is just becauase i use windows a lot too and can't type normaly in it after working in freebsd:). After analyzing the kbd map file format (someone really should make a littel man on that file) and man keyboard i understand that it is impossible, since the whole thing is done using flags field from the structure which can be set onto to CAPSLOCK or NUMLOCK or both. Am i right and this is not way out? If yes, are there plans to modfiy keyboard driver so keyboard mapping and langauge support can be more flexible?

Don't run disklabel on sd0c, which I assume is your SCSI boot disk. The disklabels you want to change are on wd0c and wd1c. And then it's the "fstype" column you change to "4.2BSD", not the "type" line. So you run disklabel twice: disklabel -e wd0c disklabel -e wd1c And both times change the "fstype" column for partition "c" to 4.2BSD. Don't touch anything else in the file. This should make ccdconfig happy. -- Björn Danielsson KTHNOC / Swedish University Network (mail me for my real e-mail address) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 21 5:15:40 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from righi.dhs.org (RIGHI.DF.UNIBO.IT [137.204.49.17]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6D7571501F for ; Tue, 21 Dec 1999 05:15:38 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from bsd@righi.dhs.org) Received: from localhost (bsd@localhost) by righi.dhs.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id OAA78318 for ; Tue, 21 Dec 1999 14:15:39 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from bsd@righi.dhs.org) Date: Tue, 21 Dec 1999 14:15:38 +0100 (CET) From: FreeBSD mailing list To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: 3.4-STABLE 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 is 3.4-STABLE already avaliable via CVSup ?? thanks Rick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 21 5:17:49 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from alpham.uni-mb.si (alpham.uni-mb.si [164.8.1.101]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 80DDF1531F for ; Tue, 21 Dec 1999 05:17:43 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from vrtin@uni-mb.si) Received: from gea.uni-mb.si by alpham.uni-mb.si (PMDF V5.1-12 #7554) with ESMTP id <01JJRLMI2PRK001GEV@alpham.uni-mb.si> for freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG; Tue, 21 Dec 1999 14:17:35 MET Received: from localhost (david@localhost) by gea.uni-mb.si (8.9.3/8.9.3/19990328) with SMTP id OAA00479; Tue, 21 Dec 1999 14:17:37 +0100 (CET) Date: Tue, 21 Dec 1999 14:17:36 +0100 (CET) From: David Vrtin Subject: Re: 3.4-STABLE In-reply-to: To: FreeBSD mailing list Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Reply-To: David Vrtin Message-id: MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII X-No-Archive: Yes Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Tue, 21 Dec 1999, FreeBSD mailing list wrote: > is 3.4-STABLE already avaliable via CVSup ??

No. Those two are not mutually exchangeable. Your best bet is to use source code which is as portable as possible.

Is there a way to have more then 65535 users on a system? In modern versions of FreeBSD, the maximum UID is well above 65535.

That's right. Basically, you can just do a "minimal" install (which will install only the bin distribution), the grab the sources with cvsup, make world, and everything is there. Although it's probably a good idea to at least install the man pages initially, too. Just in case you need to look at one before your new world is installed. ;-) > And last.. how does one change between these distribution sets after > install? (without using sysinstall.. there must be some underlying > mechanism?). Well, /stand/sysinstall is probably easier, but... You can easily install a distribution set manually, once your system is up and running. For example, to install the "games" set, just download the games directory from an FTP site and run the install.sh script which is included. Most FTP servers support tar-on-the-fly, so something like this works well: # cd /tmp # ftp ftpX.YY.freebsd.org ftp> cd /pub/FreeBSD/xxx/i386/yyy ftp> get games.tar "|tar xvf -" ftp> quit # cd games # sh install.sh Don't forget to remove the temporary stuff in /tmp afterwards, of course. Be _very_ careful if you re-install the "bin" distribution like that! It will overwrite several files in /etc, for example, it will replace your passwd with one that contains _no_ password for root!!!

Note, however, that that ISO is a "barebones" one, i.e. it only contains the actual FreeBSD install bits and XFree86, but it does not contain any packages. Well, you can easily download the packages that you need separately. Or even better, use the ports system. :) When I have some time left, I will make a more full-featured set of ISOs which includes packages. Maybe tomorrow, but don't hold your breath.

Yes, but it may take a little work. Most people have little or no trouble. I had a lot, until i found out one small detail about my BIOS i was unaware of. There is info in the handbook for setting it up, and the instructions should work fine. I love my zip with BSD.

For the read speed, I switched the ``if'' and ``of'' values. (I just realized that I should have used /dev/null for the output file, but it looks like /dev/zero just throws away any stuff you write to it.) I ran each test a few times, and then averaged the reported clock times. dd itself reports a bytes/second figure, but I just did 100 / average-time to get the MB/s numbers I quoted. I'm sure there are more precise methods of measuring i/o speed, but to detect a 3x speedup this is easily accurate enough. I've never tried iozone, so I don't know what's wonderful or not so wonderful about it. Dale.

Pretty simple setup. We're using user PPP with a 3com ISDN terminal unit. The modem keeps timing out after 30 minutes and disconnecting. We want it to remain up 24x7, redialing whenever it gets disconnected. I'm using the -auto flag to ppp; should I be using the -ddial flag? (Yes, I could play with it and see what works, but the client is a 90 minute drive away, and I don't feel like making multiple trips Christmas week.) Any help appreciated.

It serves about 30-40 people (mostly Windows users getting mail) but never really pushes much of a load. However recently, it's been having weird hangs about once every week to two weeks. All the sudden all network services appear to be hosed. You can ping the box. You can telnet to it, at which point the connect succeeds, but the banner and login prompt never appear. Mail and web services behave similarly--you can connect to the port but the service doesn't respond. You step over to the console, and you can Alt-F? to switch consoles. However nothing else you type gets registered. I know this is bizarre and a total shot in the dark but I was hoping anyone might have some suggestions as to what the problem might be. I don't think it's some kind of packet attack since the box is behind a well-configured firewall (unless, of course, it's somebody inside). Here's some information about the box: FreeBSD basilisk.techfuel.com 3.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE #1: Thu Dec 2 14:37:16 PST 1999 kehlet@basilisk.techfuel.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/BASILISK i386 I have maxusers set to 256 and NMBCLUSTERS=2048. I don't think this is the problem, though. basilisk:~-> uptime 9:45AM up 5 days, 21:45, 7 users, load averages: 0.22, 0.05, 0.02 basilisk:~-> netstat -m 190/1376 mbufs in use: 129 mbufs allocated to data 61 mbufs allocated to packet headers 128/496/2048 mbuf clusters in use (current/peak/max) 1164 Kbytes allocated to network (24% in use) 0 requests for memory denied 0 requests for memory delayed 0 calls to protocol drain routines I have SOFTUPDATES enabled. It's also running a lot of other services like Zope, MySQL, NOCOL, Samba, nfsd, amd, but I wouldn't think any of these (except maybe Zope) could manage to hose the machine. Thanks in advance! Any suggestions are appreciated. My kernel config file is attached.

Under the install the tag for 3.4-Stable is set, not 3.4-RELEASE. This will throw the error that it cannot cd to the appropriate directory to start downloading.

Actually precisely the same problem has been reported to this list by andy@sympad.net on April 22 but I wasn't able to find any answer in the archive. Details - The calling machine is FreeBSD 3.2 on Fujitsu Laptop and PCMCIA modem (ppp working perfectly without callback) The dialup server is Cisco 3640 with working cbcp callback (for other users). Here is relevant part of configuration from ppp.conf (some lines wrapped by mailer): icz-cb-test: set log +connect +lcp +cbcp +chat set AuthName martin-cb-test set AuthKey set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" AT&FZ0 OK \\d ATDT\\T TIMEOUT 90 CONNECT" set phone 227 set ifaddr 10.0.0.0/0 10.0.0.0/0 set timeout 600 set callback cbcp set cbcp 252 delete ALL What happens is that I call the Cisco, authenticate and negotiate the callback (Cisco aggrees to call me back on 252) and (according to the log) I await the callback. Here is the log: Dec 21 19:08:45 snoopy ppp[495]: Phase: PPP Started (interactive mode).

The modem is configured to answer after first ring (ats0=1) but never goes off-hook. Where could be the problem? My current theory is that the modem does not answer calls if DTR is low but I does not know how to verify it. Has anybody seen this problem or even solved it? I've searched through available ppp documentation, starting from the manpage (ppp.8), supplied configuration samples and ending with documents on http://www.Awfulhak.org but I wasn't able to find anything helpful or at least relevant to my problem. Any hints are highly appreciated. Please, answer me directly or at least CC me since I'm not subscribed to "questions".

When I used iozone, I used "iozone -s 160m" to create 160MB files. You can set the file size to what ever you want as long as it is more than your memory. What iozone does show you how it handles various size reads and writes to get to the specified file size. I think it also throws some random I/O in as well.

I have been deeply discouraged whith internal JVC,ISA,Class 1,Rockwell Chipset modem. I'm not so familar with Plug&Play, so I'll try to describe situation: 1. i486DX 2. I have both WinNT4.0 & FreeBSD 3.3. on it. 3. WinNT has detect with pnpisa my internal modem as on "Rockwell bases" after some time and drivers where instaled. To detect my modem under BSD I must do the following: 1. Power on (reset) 2. Start WinNT 3. Open COM port, Initialize modem. 4. Correctly restart without "reset" or "power". 5.

I have decided to use the vgetty software with vm scripts, etc. But I unfortunately am new to free bsd. Having come from linux - where system V style scripts are used, I don't know where things like vgetty should be run from. I see the tty file in /etc but I don't see what actually calls/runs this script or the program that uses this as a config file. Assuming this is the file to edit, do I just change the references to getty to vgetty with the appropriate changes in the command line parameters? As far as I know vgetty makes use of cuaXXX instead of ttyXXX - how will this effect the config file?

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello I'm running 3.3-RELEASE. I can't seem to install ssh using the ports collection. I've tried 1.2.27, and 2.?, with USA_RESIDENT=NO, and they both fail. (I also tried USA_RESIDENT=YES to see if it made any difference and it doesn't, fails with the same error). 1.2.27 fails because it can't find the following file on any server: patch-ssh-1.2.27-bsd.tty.chown It would appear this file doesn't exist on any of the ftp servers that the ports coll and I have tried. Is there any reason for this? ssh2 fails with a very similar problem, can't find the following file: patch-ssh-2.0.13-bsd.tty.chown I've had this problem on two different machines I've tried, on two different networks. They don't have any problem downloading the ssh sources from ftp.cs.hut.fi, so the ftp fetch component of the ports coll is definately working. In the past the only way I've overcome this kind of problem is to uncompact the sources and compile them manually, but I'd like it to work with the Ports collection as I tend to setup alot of FreeBSD machines for friends etc. Cheers Jesse -- Jesse Reynolds - Virtual Artists Pty Ltd - http://www.va.com.au Faxmail: +61 2 9776 3594 Virtual Community Engine Email: jesse (at) va.com.au http://www.vce.net ?: http://jesse.va.com.au huh?: Community Server for ICQ: 4766684 MacOS Servers (W*API) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Dec 21 13:10:34 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from brutele02.brutele.be (brutele02.brutele.be [212.68.193.30]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A201714FDA for ; Tue, 21 Dec 1999 13:10:31 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from rq@brutele.be) Received: from raphael (catv21268199212.xl-2-3.bxl.brutele.be [212.68.199.212]) by brutele02.brutele.be (8.9.3/8.8.7) with SMTP id XAA25975 for ; Tue, 21 Dec 1999 23:06:43 +0100 Message-ID: <010801bf4bf7$33cd2170$d4c744d4@brutele.be> From: "Raphael Quoilin" To: References: Subject: Where to download ?

Again, you will have to install SAMBA and also install filters for the printers, I would recommend doing this using /usr/ports/print/ghostscript55 and using /usr/ports/sysutils/webmin to set it up.

This was on a PII 450. Now, I've got the same load running on an older P166 with linux, and it uses much less of that cpu. Is this an issue with how freebsd does threads? If so, will using the mit-pthreads that come with mysql help? what are the drawbacks of that?

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 Can someone plz take a look at this problem? The problem is this: I installed freebsd on an empty second harddisk. I divided it into two partitions with slices in it. I putted the freebsd botmanager on the harddisk. Later i planted netbsd on the same second hd (ide). Then i started using the netbsd bootmanager.... This resulted in the unabling to boot freebsd anymore. Also not anymore from floppy. Now..... then i putted the freebsd bootmanager back on the disk and that resulted in being unable to boot netbsd as well. Freebsd still didnt boot. So this resulted in both os'ses not being able to boot. After that i checked the disk geometry and found it was wrong and changed the begins and end of the partitons. After that netbsd booted again Free still doesnt boot however. Netbsd and openbsd (which is on the first ide harddisk) both think that the freebsd partition start at sector 63 (which is normally the case by convention to leave the first track empty). However.... i aint sure if this is really the fact cause when i installed freebsd nothing else was on the disk. And i heared freebsd got two ways of dealing with the disk. One is the pc style way which would result in indeed a start from the first partition at sector 63, the other..... would be freebsd start at sector 0 even after the mbr and partition table... isnt it? Now what if freebsd choose that way by default? How can i be sure that is the case? Cause i didnt select pc style way when installing freebsd (as far as i can remember, its a time ago). I have some data on those freebsd slices which i want to recover. Perhaps it can be that the bootloader is broken or missing now? Anyway..... i would like to acces my data on the freebsd slices. Nothing is done with the data on those slices. Is there a way to mount some slices with a recovery disk or something? There has to be some way, cause i really cant imagine i am the first one with such a problem not being able to boot any more in freebsd. I cant mount the freebsd slices from net or opebsd cause they only allow 8 to be mounted at one time and i allrdy got those systems divided into more slices.... Do you know what i can do now to get my data from those two partitions (freebsd)? I am sure nothing has been written to those partitions. Hope to hear something. Bye, Reinoud.

For the sake of simplicity, I will begin to consider the following oversimplified scenario: a snapshot of the ports collection is taken e.g. every four months; two "versions" of the (entire) ports collection are kept under /usr/ports and /usr/newports respectively; the distfiles directory is shared. As far as I can see, I should use the new ports collection by defining the DISTDIR and PORTSDIR environment variables in my root shell: DISTDIR=3D/usr/ports/distfiles #old distfiles directory; PORTSDIR=3D/usr/newports #or /whatever/my/new/ports/directory/is. I will go to /usr/newports/my/port/of/choice and issue the usual commands -- make, make install. Is this correct ? If I should move my /usr/newports elsewhere, it will suffice to redefine my environment variables. In this oversimplified scenario, I should be able to build either version of the ports in order to suit my needs -- with a trivial modification of environment variables. The general case is far more complicated: of course some ports may get updated, others may NOT. I should organize something like a CVS, but for the ports, in order to be able to choose among them. The problem may sound purely academic or paranoid, but I consider a practical situation: the new versions of some ports may prove unstable, and restoring the old versions thus becomes *mandatory*. If the ports in question involves a few (old) dependencies, it may be a little complicated to restore these ports ... Of course I do not consider here the problem of file clashing due to different versions of the same program (package). This would require its own versioning system (like e.g. Linux RPM). Finally, I consider the simplest case: suppose I CVSup my /usr/ports. Some of the ports will be updated. In this case I give up the ability to *rebuild* the corresponding old ports (and issue "make deinstall" for them). In order to use the new ports, I seem to understand that I should: -- install the new ports and test them; -- if the tests are ok, I should pkg_delete both my old ports and my new ports; -- reinstall my new ports only. Is this correct ? However, depending on the particular case, I might need to pkg_delete an old port -- because of file clashing issues. What if the new port proves unstable (or more buggy) ? My confusion is greatest ... I thank you very, very much in advance for any tips and suggestions related to these awkward problems.

Think about it, when your machine has a packet that it does not know how to get directly to another machine via one of its interfaces, what should it do with it? You told it to send it back to _itself._ Get your default router from your network admin. It's probably xxx.xxx.xxx.1 or xxx.xxx.xxx.254 (I'm on @Home too and it happens to be .1, but YMMV). -- Crist J.

I have a Caviar 2.5 and these older Caviar's only supports PCI Mode 4, which is 16MB/s. I didn't get the high transfer rates until I went to a UDMA 33 HD. Then, the WD HD's were fast. I have an ASUS P2B-B and get a real mix on transfer rates between the old non_UDMA drives and the new ones. FreeBSD is installed on a 13.1 GB WD drive and it writes at 12+MB/s and reads at 14+MB/s. I figured that if the slow Quantum gave a high rate, then he has a modern mb and it should support UDMA on both channels. The WD wouldn't understand UDMA but should benchmark on the order of 7-8MB/s.

For a learning experience, I would do a buildworld instead of the full build and install. You can do a "make installworld" if the build works.

You need to be more specific about what you are trying to do and what is not working... But my first guess might be that you are trying to tell us your DNS is not working? Can you ping with IP addresses but can't use hostnames (you know you can ftp using the IP address as the argument too)? -- Crist J.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Greetings. I work for a company that develops hardware and software protocol analysers. We already ship a DOS version of our software, and I am one of the developers currently working on a Windows version (I'm hoping I can persuade them to let me develop a *nix version later too). It's come to the stage where I need our DOS product next to me as reference, but I cannot use it on my main development machine, as the software does not run under Windows, and if I dual boot FreeBSD with DOS, I lose my network traffic (I only have 2 machines!). My only alternative is to either stop using freebsd, and install DOS and a DOS based TCP/IP stack, or find a DOS emulator that will work under FreeBSD. I've not managed to get DOSEMU to compile, and I dont have time to play with it to try either, and bochs appears to be broken. Does anyone know of another emulator? Or has anyone successfully compiled DOSEMU under FreeBSD? Any help would be *greatly* appreciated!

It too me long enough to get them to let me have a machine to run FreeBSD on for our cvs source control - just had to get rid of microsoft snailsafe.

No. When buildworld finishes, make and install a new kernel. Boot the new kernel. Run installworld, then mergemaster and then boot again. Mergemaster is available in the ports tree (sysutils) and as a package. Ciao, Sheldon.

Make installworld will not rebuild a kernel. This is something you will have to do yourself. It will have updated the GENERIC file though. The compilation of a new kernel before reboot is what I normally do.

Has anyone on the list actually had or does have doscmd up and running? I'm getting nowhere fast. ~/.doscmdrc is set up follows: assign A: /dev/rfd0.1440 1440 assign A: /dev/rfd0.720 720 assign hard boot_drive 1024 15 17 But doscmd never tries to read/boot/anything from the floppy drive. Needless to say it doesnt boot from boot_drive either, because I havent set it up yet. The documentation states that doscmd will first try to boot from the floppy drive(s), and then the image. I need to boot to the floppy to set up boot_drive, so this is a silly vicious circle :\ The floppy in the drive is a bootable MS-DOS floppy with the required files on it. When doscmd is started, the floppy is not even accessed... I presume it should be working, since it ships with FreeBSD. Any ideas?

That's ok, I dont actually need a TCP/IP stack under the emulation. The reason being that our hardware lies in stealth, and just listens. The reason I need FreeBSD and DOS together is so that I can generate traffic between my 2 machines when testing the board. If I were to run the board under just DOS, I would have no way of generating traffic.

For example, if a new and terrifying feature is introduced into the kernel and it is turned off in /etc/defaults/rc.conf, you won't have the new rc.conf, so it's conceivable that the feature may be turned on at boot time. Of course, this shouldn't happen. But we all know what that means. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.

Apparently it's set to explode, so to speak, on December 31, 1999. It's runs on virtually all Unix platforms. I believe the forwarded information applies to the UK. ================================================================== I have attached several e-mails relating to this issue, but in summary:- xx have identified a serious and potentially dangerous rogue program that is believed to exist in all 'flavors' of UNIX. This is being dealt with By our support teams in MIS, however, there are developers that are using unauthorized versions of the Linux system, and it is these that present an issue. Linux is an unsupported platform and should not be used (it is against current agreed policy), however it has come to our attention that developers (number and location unknown) are using Linux in an unofficial capacity for development purposes. The trigger date for the rogue program is Dec 31 1999. I have discussed this issue with Kevin, and he agrees that the use of Linux must be stopped. As I require a champion at a senior level that can influence all development areas in the international business, may I suggest that you send an e-mail to all development staff, or an appropriate distribution list, for dissemination to their staff advising them that all Linux is to be removed from company equipment prior to 30 Dec 1999. Please feel free to contact me if you have any queries regarding this or any other systems security issue. <> <> <> <> Gents, Further to my e-mail yesterday about Linux, which we are all agreed on, xxx have today received a warning advisory originated by the FBI which they have stated "causes significant concern". In short, the advisory warns of a dormant rogue program embedded in Linux (and some mainstream UNIX languages) that once activated begins a strong denial of service attack by 'swamping' its host network with IP traffic, each compatible box it reaches also initiates the same attack and so on. Being a switched network makes us particularly vulnerable to this type of denial of service, and once infected preventing spread would mean attempting to isolate entire network sections i.e. OPCO or country. Xxxxx has been advised and will begin sweeping our supported UNIX systems for the files we have identified as potential carriers of this attack. Activation date for the attack is of course 31 Dec 1999. xxx rate this threat as Medium to HIGH. Our challenge is to ensure all development boxes (including those 'less official') are also checked and have Linux removed. Who would be best placed to send a mail to all international (and OPCO) developers to advise them to remove Linux and check their boxes for the offending files? I will of course keep you advised of any further developments. I support your position, there isn't any good business reason for us to be running a shareware operating system within our environment. > Operations view the use of > Linux on the network as potentially dangerous and a clear threat to the > security of the network. > > The following issues are highlighted:- > > * Integrity of user ID's, user passwords and their security. > * Security of data - who will maintain data integrity. > * Scheduling of data backup - who will maintain a regular cycle of > archiving. > * Network integrity - who would have control of insuring that the > activities of the machine did not affect the network. > * IP integrity and maintenance - DHCP maintenance. > * Root privileges - allowing unsupported software utilities to be run, > such as network monitoring tools, sniffers etc. > * Root privileges - allowing the owner of a machine to configure it to > appear to be another on the network, this would make tracing any malicious > or unauthorized actions very difficult. > * Maintenance of the machines both hardware and software - in > particular the testing and installation of software patches which are > relevant to the version of operating system and applications being used.

Anyone can make claims about some obscure part of any OS having a hidden time-bomb. Given that just all parts of Linux (and FreeBSD, and NetBSD, etc) will have had a bunch of eyeballs applied to it in recent years, I have a very hard time believing that such a problem exists. Now it this supposed report was explaining hidden time bombs in Windows, I'd have no problems believing it!

Search and replace "Linux" with "Windows NT" and see how much of a scare you can drum up. Linux has full source available and if there was some time bomb embedded in it, someone would have seen it. With Windows, who knows? Can't see the code.

What is weird is there are no hints in /var/log/messages--there are the normal system messages and then just nothing when the box hangs. I do have a monitor and keyboard on the box, but unfortunately when you walk over to it there aren't any weird messages or errors on the screen. And then--here's the *really* weird part--you can Alt-F1, F2, etc between virtual console screens but nothing else works--nothing you type shows up on the screen. I don't know if Ctl-Alt-Del would work because I have that turned off in the kernel (too many NT admins near my box... ;-) ).

I've had that happen when the IRQ in the kernel didn't match the IRQ on the card. It'd lock up on the ifconfig line in rc.network right away, though.

How to make the 'make release' create the distribution of Xfree86 same as the original FreeBSD distribution on CD. 2. How to make it include the packages distribution assuming that I have got them all and installed correctly. 3. How to make it create ISO images for the /usr/ports/distfiles (about 1.9 Gigs) each maximumx 600 MG or so to burn nicely on CDs. 4. How to make it create my own kernel "MYKERNEL" in addition to GENERIC kernel on the ISO image. 5. How to create a bootable CD to use later if I have a system that can boot off the CD drive. Thanks very much for any feedback on this important issue. ===== MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Thousands of Stores.

I was helped on my way by some kind souls here and the ThinkPad is running FreeBSD just fine ever since. However, I've received numerous mail messages from others with the same problem looking for help, so I thought I'd post the solution to the problem here so that it'll get in the mail archives. :) The problem was that the generic kernel wasn't ready to handle large RAM sizes, and my ThinkPad has 128M of RAM in it. Here's what I had to do: 1. open the ThinkPad's memory access panel (on the bottom of the laptop). 2. remove the extra RAM so you have 64Mb or less (taking appropriate static precautions, of course) 3. install FreeBSD. 4. configure a new kernel to handle larger RAM sizes (see comments in LINT). 5. replace your memory 6. boot up the new kernel, and you should be off and running. This worked for me and everyone who corresponded with me asking what I did. Your mileage may vary :) -- ______________________________________________________________________________ Steve Willoughby * Intel PMD | "Java leads to shockwave.

I just installed it a few days ago because I was getting angry at being hacked at while I was using linux, FreeBSD is easy.. well for me so far setting up and all.. But I neeeed to know how to get the apache server working and how to set my hostname to cafelinux.dhs.org. I've even tried the manual but still have not gotten anywhere.

I await your response. ___________________________ Joseph Firmani Information Systems Supervisor Wachusett Regional School District Phone: (978)464-2130 x275 Email: Joe_Firmani@wrsd.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 22 11:10:54 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from federation.addy.com (federation.addy.com [208.11.142.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6E2FE154DB for ; Wed, 22 Dec 1999 11:10:41 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from fbsdlist@federation.addy.com) Received: from localhost (fbsdlist@localhost) by federation.addy.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id OAA10895 for ; Wed, 22 Dec 1999 14:10:16 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from fbsdlist@federation.addy.com) Date: Wed, 22 Dec 1999 14:10:16 -0500 (EST) From: Cliff Addy To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: URGENT: "Free vnode isn't" Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I've got a new 3.3-Release server that keeps panicing and rebooting.

Usually when you see that message from httpd it means that it can't determine the hostname of the machine. In httpd.conf there is a directive "ServerName", edit httpd.conf and set that directive to the name of your machine. Apache should startup then. (Assuming there are no other configuration errors.) You can use the apachectl script found in the bin directory of your installation to test your config file. Use 'apachectl configtest' to test your httpd.conf for errors. j scales wrote: > > Ok, when I type httpd when i am logged in as root it tells me to set the > "ServerName Manually"..

The rest of it I have heard good things about, but if you can use Lyx or latex in the raw so to speak you may not like Applix, wp anyway-I do know that with the wordprocessor it leaves a bit to be desired with the import and export filters. Still, you may like it and the other aprts of may be more useful for your needs.

In general, swapping to the vn device is not a good idea, since performance is much worse, and there's a chance of deadlocks. In this case, however, it's not a bad idea. It beats the hell out of no swap space at all.

The other two drives are older vintage (Maxtor or WD - I would have to reboot to find out) running PIO Mode 4. The data was accrued while setiathome was running in the background on the 13.1GB drive. So, it represents the throughput of a busy system. The other two drives, if my memory is good are 2.5GB and 3.1GB drives. When I did a number of benchmarks on Control Data Corp.'s CDC-990's and Cray's XM/P's, the throughput of the system varied almost linearly with the speed of the HD's. The benchmarks we used represent a days work on the original slow CDC computer. It had the average number of jobs with the very close to the same aveage cpu and I/O times. The billing system logged all of the jobs for a year and then the daily averages were obtained from that. CDC (now out of the business) had a hard drive called a Hydra. It was a full height 8" HD that ran 9.6MB/s in 1988. It was also very expensive at $250,000 US. Cray striped them together to create what they called a DD40. It had 16 Hydras and had a total of 20GB. By striping 4 together, Cray would get 20MB/s when they were hung on the 100MB/s data channel. When our benchnmark was run on a system with the Hydras for main storage, the throughput basically doubled. The Cray XM/P had 2x the throughput of the CDC-990. The 990 was a dinosaur and represented the end of big iron. It filled the room where as the Cray looked like the what was left of the volcano in "Close Encounters of the Third Kind". I think the 8" FH HD's were all replaced by HH 5.25" HD's, which looked pretty puny mounted in the center of the Hydra's bay. The cooling requirements probably dropped 10KVA :). The effect of the Hydra on the benchmark was enormous. This the benchmark that I told you about writing behind was so important. The benchmark ran almost twice as fast when write behind caching was used. I think SOFTUPDATES produce an imporovement that helps for similar reasons. > > -jm -- Kent Stewart Richland, WA mailto:kstewart@3-cities.com http://www.3-cities.com/~kstewart/index.html FreeBSD News http://daily.daemonnews.org/ SETI(Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) @ HOME http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/ Hunting Archibald Stewart, b 1802 in Ballymena, Antrim Co., NIR http://www.3-cities.com/~kstewart/genealogy/archibald_stewart.html To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 22 18:11:59 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from freebie.lemis.com (freebie.lemis.com [192.109.197.137]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1485515764 for ; Wed, 22 Dec 1999 18:11:52 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from grog@freebie.lemis.com) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.9.3/8.9.0) id MAA08772; Thu, 23 Dec 1999 12:42:08 +1030 (CST) Date: Thu, 23 Dec 1999 12:42:08 +1030 From: Greg Lehey To: Kevin Walton Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: panic: vinvalbuf: dirty bufs Message-ID: <19991223124208.I1316@freebie.lemis.com> References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0pre2i In-Reply-To: WWW-Home-Page: http://www.lemis.com/~grog X-PGP-Fingerprint: 6B 7B C3 8C 61 CD 54 AF 13 24 52 F8 6D A4 95 EF Organization: LEMIS, PO Box 460, Echunga SA 5153, Australia Phone: +61-8-8388-8286 Fax: +61-8-8388-8725 Mobile: +61-41-739-7062 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG On Wednesday, 22 December 1999 at 21:53:16 +0000, Kevin Walton wrote: > Hi > > Useing 3.3-Rel I get a "panic: vinvalbuf: dirty bufs" right at the end of > trying to newfs an IBM Deskstar DPTA-373420: > > /kernel: wdc0: unit 1 (wd1): > /kernel: wd1: 32634MB (66835440 sectors), 66305 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S > > Im trying to newfs it as a single drive, and I tried Partioning it > both as the true full disk and as the full disk being compatable with > other OS's (not sure of the right terminology there). In the cases where I've seen it, it has been because the drive has gone down and close() can't flush the buffers. I'd guess that something on the drive has upset the system.

Then decide whether it needs merging or not? My theory is to merge in ALL the new stuff, but to watch carefully for things in certain files that I have explicitly configured. For example, I have all my rc.conf overrides in /etc/rc.conf, so I let mergemaster happily replace the whole /etc/defaults/rc.conf. But I don't let it touch /etc/groups or /etc/passwd. Most of the rest of the files need some scrutiny, to see what changed. And soon enough, you'll figure out which files you need to really watch closely so you don't blow away your settings... I found mergemaster kind of daunting at first (I was happily editing changes by hand at the time), but after a while it really grows on you. Guess that's why it's part of the core system now :-) Good luck! --Dan ** The thing I like most about Windows 98 is... ** You can download FreeBSD with it!

By the time the drive gets this bad, they're on death's doorstep. You should check, however, if your drive has ARRE/AWRE turned on. From "The Complete FreeBSD": 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 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.

Secondly, spelling is etremely important in any config file (and I'm not going to explain why here), please note the other three responses to you and the list. this /is/ the technical issue. Thirdly, as stated in a previous post to your Q, you can't have /mc contents in the .cf file - you need to build the .cf file using m4 (if nothing else), since it is built separately then the sendmail binary. Then, since it seems things are going that way for you, make sure you do a 'make install' as well.

I am having problems with fdisk. When I try to create slices, fdisk reports that the disk begins with offset -63 instead of 0. If I try to create a slice with the suggested maximum size, the created slice also begins at offset -63. In addition, I have an old Texel SCSI cdrom driven by a Pro Audio Spectrum card. The "cd" device does not show up in the visual config screen. Do I need to set it up manually, and if so, how? Let me know if I can provide any additional information. Thank you in advance.

Reason I bring it up is with a P-II 400 and 3.2-RELEASE I had one of the last rc5des (before they got named dnetc) crunchers running. With "systat -v" was watching "cvs checkout" run. The CVS archive was on a mostly empty 7G partition on one SCSI HD, writing to another mostly empty large partition on another. Both were on the same AIC7890 family U2LVD controller on an Asus P2B-S MB. Drives are UW, not LVD. Anyway, cvs had less than 5% of the CPU. Drives were doing about 200k bytes/sec. Rc5des had the other 95%. Killed rc5des and drives moved up to about 500k/sec. Did not have softupdates enabled. Also I didn't take good notes, but cvs ran about 3 times faster once rc5des was stopped. Am pretty sure it was a situation where cvs had very little to do once it got a time slice then yeilded it when it blocked for I/O. Rc5des got the remainder of the slice. Started the next slice. I/O completed. And I suspect cvs had to wait until rc5des used all its slice before getting a chance at the incoming data. That machine was scheduled for a wipe and update last month. Maybe I'll get around to it next week. :-) My PPro (oc'ed to 210) with only one 9G HD for both target and destination seems to run cvs faster than the P-II 400. Have a newer FreeBSD on the PPro. Also have softupdates enabled. Other differences is the PPro has X running all the time, the P-II doesn't have X installed at all. One would think that would be in favor of the P-II. Anyway, one of the things about rtprio and family that I don't understand is why a plain user can't use such to decrease the priority of his own processes? Or that a process can't decrease itself.

I used the following resources: instructions on FreeBSD web site mfsroot.flp floppy (floppy image downloaded from Internet) kern.flp floppy (floppy image downloaded from Internet) 3Com 3C905B-TX PCI NIC ADSL connection The install occurred via FTP and went beautifully. Up to this point, I've had to rebuild the kernel twice: once to enable ipfw and the second time to activate X windows support. X windows works fine with the video hardware (Sis) on the Pavilion 6350. Printing to an HP DeskJet 500C through the parallel port works beautifully with apsfilter software. I am in the process of connecting multiple terminals to the machine through a Cyclades-8Yo+ ISA card. Apache, Sendmail (will likely switch to Postfix or Qmail), Netscape Navigator 3.04, Lynx, Mutt, Ghostview and Adobe Acrobat all run well. I did encounter a problem compiling PostGreSQL, however, but I'm sure that the issue can be resolved. I am very happy with this FreeBSD machine.

This is the main reason why it is "bad" to use 'root' as your 'working' account on your BSD box. If you do happen to download something malicious via a Browser with Java enabled (not a "good idea" anyway) then it will only trash your user directory. But if you run as 'root' and do the same thing, well... ever typed "rm *" in "/" and then tried to hit "^C"? - no matter how fast you are, the system is faster ;') Yes, there are exploits, and all sorts of things that you can (not) do to make it easier for nasty people to hack into your machine, but in general, a well set up "real OS" machine with everyone using their own user account will rarely experience a virus attack.

But, there are things I'm not understandig, can you please help me ? System : pentium 100 MHz, 32MB, NE2000 compatible (IRQ9, port 340h), FreeBSD 3.2. 1) I've compiled gtk+-1.2.5 to install Xfce, but when I've tried to install AbiWord, it ask me for gtk 1.2.3, so I've installed that via pkg_add. Now I have three diferent versions of gtk instaled om my system , why ? What does happen when I have different versions of libraries on my system ? It's a problem ? :) 2) Why my FTP is so slow ? It's a 10Mb network with 5 computers. When I ftp to other server( a Win95 !) I get a 150-700 kbs per second, but when another computer ftp to this server it's 5(!)-100 kbs per second, why? It's the network config(DNS not set nor router)? when I log in it's not wu-ftpd I see on incoming message but : >Connecting to 10.4.1.0 port 21 (23.12.1999 02:49:55) >220 millenium.neovia.com.br FTP server (Version 6.00) ready. >USER vrs >331 Password required for vrs. >PASS >230 User vrs logged in. >SYST >215 UNIX Type: L8 Version: BSD-199506 I've instaled wu-ftpd-2.4.2v17 via sysinstall, but I'm not sure if it's serving ftp. Should I configure that at somewhere ? 3) can I, at what cost, use these web/ftp/database(mySQL) server with XWindows ? 4) can I trust in webmin 0.74 ? ok, don't trust nobody... :) 5)where could I get a apache+php(sql)+SSL package ? 6) where can I find a vector(eps, etc) version of FreeBSD logo ? It's not for commercial use, just do some propaganda... Thanks in advance, I wait for your answering ... vilmar rodrigues P.S. excuse me for my spelling _____________________________________________________________ http://www.zipmail.com.br O e-mail que vai aonde voc=EA est=E1. _____________________________________________________________ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 22 22:10:30 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from heretic.cybertouch.org (heretic.cybertouch.org [216.183.2.8]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4650614D8C for ; Wed, 22 Dec 1999 22:10:28 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from g7@heretic.cybertouch.org) Received: from localhost (g7@localhost) by heretic.cybertouch.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id BAA44702 for ; Thu, 23 Dec 1999 01:10:23 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from g7@heretic.cybertouch.org) Date: Thu, 23 Dec 1999 01:10:22 -0500 (EST) From: Lanny Baron To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: setting up an auto responder..

I think pretty much every platform in existence has at least one virus that runs on it. Usually someone does it just to prove it can be done. I've seen a man page virus that would probably work on a number of Unix-like systems that have gcc. However, I believe that all of the viruses currently considered in the wild run under one of DOS, Mac, Windows or a Microsoft application. So for all practical purposes, viruses are a total non-issue under Unix. Some boot sector viruses work on any x86 machine, regardless of OS. These aren't very common now days, but you can easily protect against them by setting your BIOS to boot of the hard drive before the floppy drive. -- Lachlan O'Dea Computer Associates Pty Ltd Webmaster Vet - Anti-Virus Software http://www.vet.com.au/ "No, no, there is no why." - Yoda, Jedi Master To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Wed Dec 22 22:55:32 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from bilbo.intexp.com (bilbo.intexp.com [209.98.25.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9F57F14DA8 for ; Wed, 22 Dec 1999 22:55:30 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from blake@iexposure.com) Received: from iexposure.com (blake.iexposure.com [209.98.25.51]) by bilbo.intexp.com (8.9.3/8.9.0) with ESMTP id BAA27715 for ; Thu, 23 Dec 1999 01:04:37 -0600 Message-ID: <3861C723.498EC83A@iexposure.com> Date: Thu, 23 Dec 1999 00:54:27 -0600 From: blake Reply-To: blake@iexposure.com Organization: VOID X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 (Macintosh; I; PPC) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: FreeBSD happy modems Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; x-mac-type="54455854"; x-mac-creator="4D4F5353" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm about to set up a new FreeBSD machine and want to put a 56k Modem in it.

It's _always_ hell doing a source upgrade from -stable to -current. :-) It's 6 of one and half a dozen of the other, I'm afraid. Both a binary upgrade (tweaking the new /etc afterwards) and a source upgrade (wading through a massive mergemaster run afterwards) are going to take time. Ciao, Sheldon.

Our scheduler is optimized for many processes, some long-running and some short-lived cpu-bound hogs. Ciao, Sheldon.

One of the usual traps of copying /etc/defaults/rc.conf to your /etc/rc.conf is that /etc/defaults/rc.conf contains a line that says: rc_conf_files="/etc/rc.conf /etc/rc.conf.local" and at the end of the script the code: for i in ${rc_conf_files}; do if [ -f $i ]; then . $i fi done which will reload rc.conf from within rc.conf ! Try removing "rc.conf" from your rc_conf_files, making it: rc_conf_files="/etc/rc.conf.local" and you should be fine. -- Giorgos Keramidas, < keramida @ ceid . upatras . gr> "What we have to learn to do, we learn by doing."

The type of the filesystem on the CDROM! CDROMs are usually formatted in ISO-9660. You asked to mount a ufs filesystem. The error you got simply indicates that mount didn't find a ufs system on the media. No wander. Try adding -t cd9660 to the mount command: mount -t cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom > It's time to fix this once and for all. Could it be my drives? Indeed.

One day you might need them, and they're not hurting you now. :-) The disadvantage or removing them is that mergemaster will think they're new files _every_ time you run it from here on. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.

Granted this isn't as easy as just building a port, but if you want a full-custom server it's the only route. You need to get the Apache source, I'd suggest 1.3.9, and unpack it. There is a nice configuration tool called apaci, to assist in the building of the server. Then get the source for the modules that you want to compile that aren't part of the standard Apache kit. e.g. mod_ssl, mod_php etc... http://modules.apache.org is one source or just go to the main web sites for the modules you need. (http://www.php.net, http://www.modssl.org) Those modules will have their own instructions for compilation and inclusion into the server so just follow what they say. After all your modules are compiled, you can then compile Apache and off you go. This probably sounds more difficult than it is, the documentation in the PHP distribution is excellent, although I personally haven't dealt with mod_ssl. There shouldn't be any problem with getting them to work together. Good luck! strben@altavista.com wrote: > > Hello all... > > As always...

Hmm..I can't find any documentation (manpages) on ecb_crypt, which suggests it's a deprecated interface. You should use the des_ecb_encrypt function and related calls as described in that manpage, as these are the "standard FreeBSD API". Note the different calling syntax.

Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is more a curiousity question than a problem, but I'm hoping someone can give me an answer nonetheless. Is there such a thing as IP masquerading in FreeBSD? Or is it done automatically if I set a machine to be the default gateway for the network? At home I have the typical setup as follows: [dialup] <-- PPP --> [FreeBSD box] <-- ethernet --> [Linux box] and the FreeBSD box is the gateway for the local network. From my Linux box I can already access the outside world, even though (obviously) it doesn't have a real IP. Does this mean FreeBSD is automagically doing IP masquerading? My friend asked me this because he has the same setup, but his gateway box is also a Linux box, and he [thinks he] has to explicitly install masquerading on it. I'm wondering if that is necessary at all, or if he could just set the clients to use the Linux box as a gateway like I did with FreeBSD, and be done with it. - Julian -- Julian C.

I always believe that there's a 100 ways to kill a rat. The method mentioned in the Konrad Heuer's answer may be the cleanest way, but it has somewhat a drawback of needing a very long time to download and some tweeking of the fetch command namely "fetch -r -R" options to avoid redownloading from zero bytes sould the connection drop, and is kinda unsuitable for most of the low-medium bandwidth users, and definitely not for modem users (big population). Mr. Cole Mark's original question was how to "create" rather than "download" the ISO image, and that's the kind of independence that most of us, users, would like to maintain. for such people, here's how you do it: 1. from the ports download and install cvsup package, this will help you get the needed pieces that will be used later for creating the ISO image. 2. setup cvsup as follows: step 1: mkdir /usr/cvsup step 2: create a file /usr/cvsup/all.sup that contains : *default host=cvsup.internat.FreeBSD.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_3 *default delete use-rel-suffix *default compress src-all src-crypto src-eBones src-secure ports-all tag=. doc-all www step 3: start cvsupping the complete trees cd /usr/cvsup cvsup -g all.sup this is a long (in the first time use only, and occasionally on major updates, but worth the sweat) 3. Build World (full built of FreeBSD OS) cd /usr/src make clean make world (don't be afraid go for it) (time consuming step better let the system do it while you are at work/sleep/TV or otherwise) cd /sys/i386/conf config -g MYKERNEL (MYKERNEL is your own kernel configuration file) cd /sys/compile/MYKERNEL make clean make depend make make install (here, its better to reboot into the new kernel, when you're back dmake a release) 4. Build a Release: step 1: cd /usr/src/release step 2: edit the /usr/src/release/Makefile BASE = 3.3 CVSROOT=/home/ncvs CHROOTDIR=/usr/release (/usr or anything you choose must have > 1.0 gigabytes free) RELEASETAG=RELENG_3 (time consuming, but will giveyou a FULL release that you can later in step 5 use to create CD) 5. Create the FreeBSD CDs step 1: create the ISO image (I'll assume you are using an ATA IDE CD-writer (cuz that's the one I use, help on SCSI has been more than one discussed here, it uses other software "cdrecord" from ports. step 1-a: fetch, build and install application "mkhybrid" from ports. step 1-b: mkhybrid -a -f -N -D -r -L -R -J -v -o (space) /usr/ISO_IMAGE (space) /usr/release/R/cdrom1 (not sure about the full path here sorry my brain own memory fails here, but you should find it anyway) step 2: burn data CD. step 2-a put a new empty writable CD in the CD drive, and close the door step 2-b fetch, make, and install "wormcontrol" from ports fetch, make, and install "team" from ports step 2-c assuming you CD is on acd0, do the following cd /dev ./MAKEDEV acd0 (this will create the "RAW" devices racd0a and racd0c step 2-d (better to put in a shell script: #-------------------- #iso2cd script: #-------------------- #!/bin/sh device=/dev/racd0c wormcontrol -f$device prepdisk double wormcontrol -f$device track data (following two line should be on one line) rtprio 5 team -v 1m 5 < /usr/ISO_IMAGE | rtprio 5 dd of=$device bs=20k wormcontrol -f$device fixate 1 6. make a bootable floppy (actually 2 of them) the needed files are 1.44 MB kernel --> floppy 1 mfsroot --> floppy 2 these babies are on the same tree /usr/release/R/floppies/....... thats it, you should be able to install FreeBSD on any new system having HD, CD, and floppy, in addtition to the (un-necessary :-) CPU, keyboard, and monitor) have fun. --- Konrad Heuer wrote: > > On Thu, 23 Dec 1999, Cole Mark A SSgt > JTF-SWA/J6 wrote: > > > I looked in the handbook and the ftp site but > could not find an answer. > > What do I need to do to make a cd that I can > use to install freebsd.

As far as I'm aware it's not automatic (unless something has changed). No matter what there's some configuring to do... You can get the whole story on how to do it frmo: http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/ppp/index.html or you can start out at: http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/ppp/x519.html for the first mentioning of masquerading/aliasing.

Everything in the server looks fine, ifconfig -a tells me that the IP is ok but it the other computers do not "see it" Check that the card is using the correct media. If you do an ifconfig xl0 you should see something like the following for your xl0 interface: xl0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255 ether 00:50:da:44:11:ad media: 100baseTX supported media: autoselect 100baseTX 100baseTX 100baseTX 10baseT/UTP 10baseT/UTP 10baseT/UTP The media section is what you should be looking at, and you should select the correct media and mediaopt based upon what the card is connected to. For example, my 3c905C using xl0 is connected to a dual speed 10/100 hub on half duplex. The following will manually put my card into this mode: ifconfig xl0 media 100baseTX mediaopt half-duplex You may find that the card has not detected the correct mode, and you may have to set this manually.

AFAIK, FreeBSD usernames are currently limited to 16 characters, and may be comprised of only lower case letters and/or digits. _If_ Samba can handle a trailing $ in a username (which it ought to if Windoze can do it), then you would probably want to try the "username map" command in smb.conf. man smb.conf and look for "username map" it gives examples To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Thu Dec 23 10: 1:28 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from ns1.lr.net (ns1.lr.net [205.219.188.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A39911565C for ; Thu, 23 Dec 1999 10:01:26 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from waldroni@lr.net) Received: from camry ([209.187.112.88]) by ns1.lr.net (Netscape Mail Server v1.1) with SMTP id AAA11274 for ; Thu, 23 Dec 1999 13:01:21 -0400 Message-ID: <000201bf4d6f$9d1d1260$5870bbd1@camry> Reply-To: "Isaac Waldron" From: "Isaac Waldron" To: References: <38612F54.B402DA76@journalstar.com> <386133CF.3F4307C3@journalstar.com> Subject: Re: rc.network question Date: Wed, 22 Dec 1999 21:14:18 -0500 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 5.00.2314.1300 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG ----- Original Message ----- From: Tony Wells To: Sent: Wednesday, December 22, 1999 3:25 PM Subject: Re: rc.network question > Found it! /etc/defaults/rc.conf. > > Tony Wells wrote: > > > > I want to enable the "log_in_vain" for TCP and UDP packets at startup in > > the kernel state.

However, you should not change this file directly, but instead add changes to /etc/rc.conf to override settings in /etc/defaults/rc.conf. For example, in /etc/defaults/rc.conf, log_in_vain is set to "NO". To enable log_in_vain, I would add the following line to /etc/rc.conf: log_in_vain="YES" # enable log_in_vain It is my understanding that changes should not be made to /etc/defaults/rc.conf.

I might be way out, but do those terminals have scroll lock on? I just tried this, and it seems if you go to ttyv1, press scroll lock, and kill the getty on that terminal, I got similar information from ps that you do. (definately had "E" in the status flags and it was blocked in ttywai.) If this explains either, it is more likely the one blocked in ttywai, I've got no idea what ckvnlk is (it seems to come from sys/miscfs/deadfs, but that doesn't mean much to me). -- 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 Thu Dec 23 10:27:39 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.cableregina.com (ip3.net20483142.cr.sk.ca [204.83.142.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 3D67F156CC for ; Thu, 23 Dec 1999 10:27:34 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from srogers@cableregina.com) Received: from [24.72.20.35] by mail.cableregina.com (SMTPD32-4.0) id A993947F0074; Thu, 23 Dec 1999 14:27:31 -0400 Message-ID: <000801bf4d73$e309a0a0$23144818@cableregina.com> From: "Stuart Rogers" To: Subject: Apache AND etc/host problem Date: Thu, 23 Dec 1999 12:31:10 -0600 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_0005_01BF4D41.97D820C0" 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 This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0005_01BF4D41.97D820C0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I'm trying to get Apache 1.3.9 running virtual hosts on FreeBSD 3.3. = I had Apache installed and would not work untill I changed the etc/host = file and then it worked but now when I enable Virtual Hosts in apache it = does the same problem and neither of the Hosts work.

Copying /defaults/rc.conf to > /etc/rc.conf? Not if you remove rc.conf from rc_conf_files in the copied file, no. However, this isn't recommended practice, because you lose the power of the whole defaults directory idea. As Mark Ovens mentioned, /etc/rc.conf really is for overrides only. Ciao, Sheldon.

Setting up for a benchmark is similar to setting up a race car for a time trial. You want it to run as fast as possible with a special setting. Those settings may not be appropriate when it is released to the users. A race car setup for a time trial is probably dangerous when you change the balance by loading a full load of fuel onboard. The programs were all designed around licensing commercial nuclear power reactors in the US and the actual runs were considered proprietary. Some of the programs depended on 60-64 bit numbers. One of the programs had to be able to and/or a 60-bit integer with FORTRAN. The floating point number extremes ran from 10^(+/-)2048 or 4096. The old computers ran from ~10^(+/-)308 The mix of jobs was an average day as defined by accounting data for a year. They depended on the batch job capability of the computers. The benchmark started out by building the programs and then running them. The benchmark shell script added new jobs to the batch queue every so often. Some of them modified a module and then build a new program. The benchmark also included 100 simulated users doing various sorts of things on line. The user simulation ran on the Sun front ends that were on all Cray's at that point in time. The users were a constant minor irritation to the system. The Cray was eventually replaced by 3 really small DEC Alphas. Before that happened each group had a number of HP Xterms and a couple of HP 9000 servers to run their jobs interactively. The production jobs were run on the Cray and then on the Alphas. By small I mean the desk where the Cray monitors were hung was large enough to include all three Alpha and the 5 or 6 - 20GB drives attached to each. Each Alpha had several times the memory of the Cray. Fast memory was really expensive in 1988. I think the Cray needed something like 230KVA of cooling running at all times. I think, at this point in time, my PC's have more memory than they did. Each Alpha (<200MHz) had 1.5 times the throughput of the Cray. Setting up the Alpha's cost less than the maintenance on the Cray was running. The benchmark was considered obsolete because a single large computer in the future was considered highly unlikely and it was archived on to magnetic tape(s), which were probably recycled when I was retired. If you are running in a similar environment, the things we learned still apply. You never have a fast enough file system. Write behind caching to your HD's can be 50% of your system throughput. Turn it off and you may run half as many jobs in the same amount of time. If you are swapping too much, you don't have enough memory. If you aren't swapping a little bit, you spent too much money on memory. From then on it is a matter of fine tuning your system. BTW, the user percived speed of the system will be gauged on the amount of time required for the prompt to reappear after they press the "enter" key :). I haven't seen a real comparison of SOFTUPDATE in a mix of environments. If you are trying to figure out how important it is, try running a number of your jobs with timing turned on, turn SOFTUPDATE on and run them again. You can redirect input on most programs and develop scripts based on that ability. You could time it by using the shell script to append the redirected the output of "time" to a file and automate the data collection. The kind of things most people are using FreeBSD for is different than the stuff we were doing and the tuning of the machines would be different. A buildworld could represent a piece of what was going on. A kernel build is probably closer. When I do a buildworld, I leave Seti@Home running in the background. The cpu is always running at 100% until I do an install. There are no other users that could sneak things in on me. On a batch oriented computer, for example, you didn't do things like run a large database. Web and mail servers would also be running on a different computer. Since our benchmark was a purchase requirement, it was run against a stop watch. The batch system had to be idle in x hours. When I run setiathome, which has no real I/O requirements, on various systems, I find it is mostly memory limited and PC-66 memory slows it down tremendously. When I replaced a Celeron 433a with an Celeron 300a@450, the average time per workunit dropped from a little over 54,000 secs to a little under 34,000 seconds. The average on the 300a@450 is coming up on 100 WU's. This works out pretty close to the ratio of PC-66/PC-100 access times. I saw a ~15% improvement with the 433 by just replacing the PC-66 memory with PC-100 memory. Setiathome is running much faster; however, the buildworld times only dropped ~300 seconds, i.e., ~2160u to ~1890u. Memory speed is important but not as much as it was to setiathome. Depending on how many gaussians they are seeing a P-III 450 or the Celeron 300a@450 jumps into the lead on average processing speed. The P-III 450 is running Windows 2000 Server and the Celeron is running FreeBSD. I have a 2% variation between motherboards and much less than that between OS'es. Setiathome running on a P-II 400 on a SuperMicro P6SBA mb is running 2% faster than it does on a P-II 400 on an ABIT BX6 rev 2 mb. All of the BIOS setting are on defaults.

I'd recommend "omi" (ports/ftp/omi), being the author of it... :-) Seriously, we're using omi exclusively for almost two years now to mirror various stuff on the university's main FTP server (which also happens to be ftp7.de.freebsd.org). We tried several other mirroring programs before, and they all had problems, so I started writing omi. The goal was to make it reliable, efficient and fairly easy to use.

The aliasing thing in the NIC, it works like this, if your aliased IP = address that you are going to use, its in the same subnet that the one = that you have already, you need the 255.255.255.255 netmask, which will = tell the system that this IP address its in the same subnet, and it = wouldnt need any more routing information. But if your new IP Address, = its not in the same subnet that the first one, you will have to use the = right netmask for it. For NameVirtualHosts to work, you just need the following in your = "httpd.conf" file: NameVirtualHost a.b.c.d:80 ServerName mydomain.com ServerAlias www.mydomain.com host.mydomain.com DocumentRoot /usr/local/www/data/domains/mydomain ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/mydomain-error.log TransferLog /var/log/httpd/mydomain-access.log ErrorDocument 404 http://www.mydomain.com/ ServerName myotherdomain.com ServerAlias www.myotherdomain.com host.myotherdomain.com DocumentRoot /usr/local/www/data/domains/myotherdomain ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/myotherdomain-error.log TransferLog /var/log/httpd/myotherdomain-access.log ErrorDocument 404 http://www.myotherdomain.com/ and so on...

The aliasing thing in the NIC, it works = like this,=20 if your aliased IP address that you are going to use, its in the same = subnet=20 that the one that you have already, you need the 255.255.255.255 = netmask, which=20 will tell the system that this IP address its in the same subnet, and it = wouldnt=20 need any more routing information. But if your new IP Address, its not = in the=20 same subnet that the first one, you will have to use the right netmask = for=20 it.
 
For NameVirtualHosts to work, you just = need the=20 following in your "httpd.conf" file:
 
NameVirtualHost a.b.c.d:80
 
<VirtualHost = a.b.c.d>
  =20 ServerName mydomain.com
    ServerAlias www.mydomain.com host.mydomain.= com
   DocumentRoot=20 /usr/local/www/data/domains/mydomain
   ErrorLog=20 /var/log/httpd/mydomain-error.log
    TransferLog=20 /var/log/httpd/mydomain-access.log
   ErrorDocument 404 http://www.mydomain.com/
&l= t;/VirtualHost>
 
<VirtualHost = a.b.c.d>
  =20 ServerName myotherdomain.com
    ServerAlias www.myotherdomain.com host= .myotherdomain.com
   DocumentRoot=20 /usr/local/www/data/domains/myotherdomain
   ErrorLog=20 /var/log/httpd/myotherdomain-error.log
    TransferLog = /var/log/httpd/myotherdomain-access.log
   ErrorDocument = 404 http://www.myotherdomain.com/<= BR></VirtualHost>
 
and so on...
 
Merry Xmas

Subject: Apache 1.3.9 Vhosts=20 Problem

    I was wondering if = anyone has=20 a complete Apache 1.3.9 httpd.conf file that would show me how to set = up=20 Virtual Hosts in Apache. I'm new to Apache and FreeBSD and have = received very=20 good help from this mailing list but nothing seems to want to get = Virtual=20 Hosts working in Apache. I have had people say you have to have your = netmask=20 set to 255.255.255.255 but nobody has said why. When I set my netmask = to that=20 My internet doesn't work so unfortantly I can set it to that. But if = anyone=20 has a httpd.conf file they know works with Apache to get Virtual Hosts = going=20 could you please HELP. I am running freeBSD 3.3. Thank you for anyhelp = you can=20 give me.

But what source code? It only updates the source trees which you tell it to update. For example, here is my supfile, and some explanation: *default umask=077 #Set source files as rwx------ *default release=cvs #Get info from main CVS repository *default host=cvsup4.freebsd.org #Which server to use *default tag=RELENG_3 # Stick with the 3.x stablebranch *default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup #Place to keep cvsup status files *default prefix=/usr #Tells cvsup where to put the trees *default delete #Lets cvsup delete files *default use-rel-suffix #Don't recall, just std. *default compress # Allows compression during xmission src-all # Specifies to update ALL sources doc-all # Specifices to update ALL documents cvs-crypto #Specifies to updaet all cryptography > Does it update the goods in /usr/ports/*? The above does NOT update the ports tree. Personally, I run a separate supfile that does JUST ports. Others combine the two. MY supfile is below for ports. Note the differet default tag line!!! *default release=cvs *default host=cvsup5.freebsd.org *default tag=. *default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup *default prefix=/usr *default delete *default use-rel-suffix *default compress ports-all >I've never done a make world. That's ok. Just consider yourslef ahead of the "download game" for the day you decide to take the plunge :) >Instead I've added stuff as necessary. Not sure what you mean here... if you just mean the ports, that seems ok. But if you're talking about randomly selectig parts of the main source to update, that sounds a bit dangerous, and like you're aching to have something broken by it.. >If I use CVSup to update /usr/ports then I need to go into each of >the app directories under /usr/ports and run make again to have the >system d/l and install the latest version of software? >Or does CVSup bring down the software packages? CVSup does't do any building or installing (at least as far as I'm aware). All it's supposed to do is compare your sources to the cources in the repositories, and update your files appropriately (instead of d/loading complete sources every time). For example, if you have Samba 2.0.5 installed, and you decide that you want Samba2.0.6 instead, cvsup will help you to get the patches and make files, but you'll have to do the build and install as you would any other port. Hope this helps!!!

I'll take that as a NO! I am entirely familiar with the processes of getting a normal Stallion card working in FreeBSD, but this is a PCI smart card. After combing the documentation I have not found any definative answers. It is detected in the BIOS PCI card list, but it is not automatically detected in FreeBSD as the documentation claims would occur. No entry is required in the kernel configuration file. (tried putting an entry in) (/usr/src/sys/i386/conf/mykernel) I always read all appropriate documentation before I ever ask for help. Being a smart card, it must should not require a stlload. The Major device number should be 72. The device files were created, getty's were enabled but nothing. I have successfully installed other intellegent Stalion serial cards .... but on this occassion it looks like I will have to put it in the too hard box, and use some other hardware. I have noted that the device driver version is still 0.0.5 Beta in the current FreeBSD 3.4 Release and yet the current driver version is 2.0.0 Release. What is a pitty is the original developer greg@stallion.com is not available for the smallest clue either. It is also a pitty that the 3 boards I have are worth around $700 ea, an outlay of $2100.. I hate to say it but it works for every other OS including Linux (and MickeySoft), but not FreeBSD. :( Thanks anyway Greg --- "Crist J.

This unit seems to work well for what I need, but I would like to have it do a graceful shutdown on the machiens it supports when the battery is low. I found uppsd, and upsmon in the ports tree, but both of them appear to expect theUPS to commuincate using RS-232. Looks like my UPS has some more basic signals on it's "serial" port. Anyone have nay experience wiht these erliare units? Or pointers to more complete docs on eithr of these programs? Or other programs?

Tell the truth, now. If it's a Pentium II (incl. Celeron), you should have specified "i686", not "i586". D'oh! > I did keep a copy of my old kernel. But, I can't seen to get it to > boot to it. (Yes, this is undocumented. cc'd to -doc) When the boot loader comes up (Press Enter to boot [kernel]), press any key except Enter, and type: unload This will kick your current (defective) kernel out of core, leaving a tabula rasa. Type: load kernel.old This moves your old (pre-3.4-STABLE) kernel into core. Type: boot Self-explanatory. That should bring up your old kernel, but it's no guarantee that this one will work either. So if it doesn't try kernel.GENERIC. If this doesn't work, you may be SOL. Good luck. Once you get your system up and running, immediately modify the kernel config file and recompile--do not pass GO, do not collect $200. Your 3.4-STABLE libraries and system utilities are not meant to work with your 3.x-RELEASE kernel. (Hey, -doc'ers! If this part of the Handbook isn't being re-written by anyone, I'll volunteer to at least write this part (booting an old kernel), if not the entire Build A New Kernel section.)

I'm using FreeBSD 3.3 to create a firewall machine that will also run NATD. This machine will replace an existing NT machine performing the same function. I have a single ADSL line coming into the FreeBSD's primary NIC (de0) and my LAN's hub is connected to my FreeBSD's secondary NIC (lnc1). I've been using 'Complete FreeBSD' as a guide and I think everything's correct, but nothing seems to work. Here are snippets from the important files: /etc/rc.conf # --- Important info about the network --- # SV 12/23 ifconfig_lnc1="inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" #Internal ifconfig_de0="inet 216.102.106.36 netmask 255.255.255.0" #External ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1" #Loopback defaultrouter="216.102.106.254" gateway_enable="YES" firewall_enable="YES" firewall_type="simple" natd_enable="YES" #This isredundant since it's natd_interface="de0" #manually config'd in rc.firewall /etc/rc.firewall ### Flush out the list before we begin. /sbin/ipfw -f flush ### Divert all packets before applying any rules /sbin/ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via de0 ### Only in rare cases do you want to change these rules /sbin/ipfw add 100 pass all from any to any via lo0 /sbin/ipfw add 200 deny all from any to 127.0.0.0/8 ## (this is all from 'simple' profile in default rc.firewall) # This is a prototype setup for a simple firewall. Configure # this machine as a named server and ntp server, and point all # the machines on the inside at this machine for those services. ### set these to your outside interface ### network and netmask and ip oif="de0" onet="216.102.106.0" # Pacbell's DSL subnet omask="255.255.255.0" oip="216.102.106.36" # Our DSL address ### set these to your inside interface ### network and netmask and ip iif="lnc1" inet="192.168.0.0" imask="255.255.255.0" iip="192.168.0.1" # This machine's LAN IP I can access the internet from the FreeBSD machine, but none of the machines on my local lan can get out. I usually test using telnet by name, then by IP. As you can see, my local net uses the 192.168.0.x address space. All machines are configured to use 192.168.0.1 as their default gateway. I'm pretty sure this is not a routing problem because when I use the 'open' (allow all) profile, I have the same problem. Lastly, I see this right at the end of 'dmesg': IP packet filtering initialized, divert disabled, rule-based forwarding disabled, logging disabled ip_fw_ctl: invalid command Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

"Operation not permitted" usually means that an ipfw rule is denying the outgoing packet (the other poster was incorrect; if a non-root person tries a ping -f, they get "ping: -f flag: Operation not permitted"). Check your outgoing ipfw rules and see if any of them could be filtering that packet. -- 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 Thu Dec 23 22:27:30 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from zagnut.hotpop.com (zagnut.hotpop.com [204.57.55.32]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0E74514D22 for ; Thu, 23 Dec 1999 22:27:27 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kamidesu@hotpop.com) Received: from wingate (unknown [216.72.93.12]) by zagnut.hotpop.com (Postfix) with SMTP id 390C3639D1 for ; Fri, 24 Dec 1999 01:27:23 -0500 (EST) From: m To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: cant dial (PPP) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Becky! ver 1.25.07 Message-Id: <19991224062723.390C3639D1@zagnut.hotpop.com> Date: Fri, 24 Dec 1999 01:27:23 -0500 (EST) X-HotPOP: ----------------------------------------------- Sent By HotPOP.com FREE Email Get your FREE POP email at www.HotPOP.com ----------------------------------------------- Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I start ppp (version 2) and type "dial". ppp returns "warning: chat script failed".

Now you are sitting at the terminal where is those dir's Thanks That depends on how you configure ftpd. By default, anonymous ftp access is limited to user ftp's home directory. See the ftpd(8) manual page for more information. Ciao, Sheldon.

Yes, I did. In fact, it has many of the options and perhaps (?) I don't need all of them? It has: options INET options IPFIREWALL options IPDIVERT options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE options "IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT=10" options IP_FILTER It has ALL of the default options listed in the Complete FreeBSD with the exception of the option that emulates TCP 4.2. The book (Complete FreeBSD) was a bit vague on some of the options. Should I strip it down to only include IPFIREWALL and IPDIVERT (and INET, too) ? Thanks for the help.

What version of FreeBSD are you using. On a 4-day-old 4.0-CURRENT, fstat(2) seems to fill st_bklsize correctly. The following sample code prints 8192 for every file I tested on my system.

DESCR file: The mserver program is a network modem sharing server which allows modems to be exported to any number of hosts on the (local) internet. Access control to each individually exported modem is performed on a per-host basis. If you are going to hace Win clients you will need a client (there is a Linux Howto Modem Sharing there it is explained). I am using this feature with FreeBSD 3.4 stable and it works.

Here is my ppp.conf file default: allow users set device /dev/cuaa1 set server /var/tmp/internet T5er76Wq 0177 set speed 38400 disable lqr deny lqr set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \"\" AT+FCLASS=0&H1&I0&R2 OK ATE1Q0 OK-AT-OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" set log IPCP CCP phase chat set redial 1 netcom: set openmode active set log LCP IPCP CCP phase chat set phone 5698740 set login "TIMEOUT 125 gin:-\\r-gin: xxxxx word: xxxxxxxxxxxxx stanb slirp" disable pred1 deny pred1 set timeout 180 set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 # set ifaddr 127.1.1.1/0 127.1.1.2/0 delete default add 0 0 HISADDR And hee is the satte I find myself in at the endo f the negotiaon.

Last night i was playing with my sound trying to get it to work. All i can think of is that deleting 3 symlinks (audio, dsp, and one other sound related) somehow affected the serial port devices. I booted up this morning, and didn't hear the usual 'beep' from my PCCARD. So, i fired up ppp and when i dialed, it said 'Bad file descriptor for cuaa2'. I have no idea how this happened. I went to /dev and re-ran MAKEDEV all and MAKEDEV cuaa2, and i also ran fsck. No go. I have two questions: 1. How do i fix this? 2. What manpage should i read when things like this happen? -jm To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 24 7:36:41 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from unix.megared.net.mx (megamail.megared.com.mx [207.249.162.252]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2D0EE14CCF for ; Fri, 24 Dec 1999 07:36:38 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from ales@megared.net.mx) Received: from ales (pix.gdl.megared.net.mx [207.249.162.253]) by unix.megared.net.mx (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id JAA77122; Fri, 24 Dec 1999 09:35:17 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from ales@megared.net.mx) Message-ID: <00ea01bf4e24$a3811c40$d2630a0a@megared.net.mx> From: "Alejandro Ramirez" To: , "Sonny Van Hook" Cc: References: <3.0.1.32.19991223202408.006bd45c@muller.net> <3.0.1.32.19991224002358.006c7fa8@muller.net> Subject: RE: Stuck debugging NATD Date: Fri, 24 Dec 1999 09:36:25 -0600 X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2314.1300 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, > At 12:01 AM 12/24/99 -0500, Crist J.

Try this option also in your kernel: options IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT #Accepts Everything by default, and start denying things one by one in the /etc/rc.firewall file. and in rc.conf try using : firewall_enable="YES" firewall_type="UNKNOWN" You dont have to modify your /etc/rc.firewall file for natd to work, but if you want to enable some firewall features, then you will have to.

Well, i've tried several times MAKEDEV with all sort of combinations of all, cuaa, cuaa0, 1,2, and 3. Still, nothing. I merged the new rc scripts into the system a few days ago, but that shouldn''t matter, right? I had just had the serial port up and running a few hours before last night. I recompiled the kernel a few times, but only for sound and to add pnp support with options USERCONFIG. I could even take that out, but i doubt it would make a difference. It didn't make a difference in the sound, that's for sure. I was trying to figure out why sound wasn't working, and when i read LINT, man pcm, and man pnp, it seemed to say i didn't need the devices audio and dsp, so i tried deleting them to re-make them. But that didn't work. But i didn't do anything to the cuaa devices, and that's what i don't understand here. It almost feels like windows sometimes when something breaks and i don't know why or where to start. I searched the mailing list archives and they suggested rm /dev/cuaa2, then MAKEDEV cuaa2. I tried it, and still no go. I noticed when i reboot, there is no beep from the PCCARD starting. Could this be something besides cuaa2 that is causing a problem? The card works fine under windows. Please help, i needed this working today for a school project. -jm To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Fri Dec 24 8:41: 6 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from adsl-206-170-238-103.dsl.lsan03.pacbell.net (adsl-206-170-238-103.dsl.lsan03.pacbell.net [206.170.238.103]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 02F9E152FD for ; Fri, 24 Dec 1999 08:40:54 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mailsrv@rtscomputer.net) Received: from db (db.rp.com [192.168.1.2]) by adsl-206-170-238-103.dsl.lsan03.pacbell.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id IAA04575; Fri, 24 Dec 1999 08:40:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from mailsrv@rtscomputer.net) Message-ID: <000e01bf4e2e$8b463700$0201a8c0@rp.com> From: "Richard" To: "pons" , References: <38639AA2.4EC903E3@gmx.li> Subject: Re: delay Date: Fri, 24 Dec 1999 08:47:19 -0800 Organization: rTs Computer Systems 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 5.00.2314.1300 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG It is trying to do a reverse lookup on the machine you are telnet'ing from.

It may not be as correct but it's what I originally did. It took me a bit to catch on when I switched over from linux too. Which program is called mc?? I have not used it.

I ran Mergemaster then rebooted and most everything is happy except for a maddening problem that broke sendmail and seems to be related to the new bind. What I get is a complaint from sendmail each time it tries to resolve a connection from local hosts: the syslog shows: Dec 24 16:21:30 Canopus sendmail[2659]: gethostby*.gethostanswer: asked for :13.224.148.205.in-addr-arpa", got "13.224.148.205.in-addr.arpa" sendmail's log shows: Dec 24 16:21:30 Canopus sendmail[2659]: gethostbyaddr(205.148.224.13) failed: 1 The only other change I can see is the response nslookup gives when you query a local reverse. The previous version would just return the proper reverse lookup, while it now gives: # nslookup 205.148.224.13 Server: localhost.orionsys.com Address: 127.0.0.1 Name: canopus.orionsys.com Address: 205.148.224.13 Aliases: 13.224.148.205.in-addr.arpa <<<<<<<<< The old release did NOT return an "aliases" line... the additional return seems to be what is confusing sendmail. There was mention on another list of a "rrset_other fixed;" parameter somewhere, but a search of the bind sources doesn't seem to mention anything like that and it produces an error in named.conf if I include it. The misbehaving box's DNS is a slave and the reverse file has not changed. The sendmail.cf file has not been altered and the previous sendmail release was also 8.9.3. When I ran Mergemaster, I merged the /etc/defaults/rc.conf file, adding unmodified all of the new lines while keeping all the modified lines, and didn't touch the real /etc/rc.conf file. I've tried removing the reverse zone from the box to no effect. The only arguments to named are '-u bind -g bind', which I was using before. I've been thru the FreeBSD mail archives and haven't found anything like this. Any ideas what the heck I'm missed?

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. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only Page 5 Getting errata for older editions of the book take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html. 4. The revised second edition was formatted on 11 February 1999. As the name suggests, it's not a complete new edition: in fact, only three chapters are different: o The chapter ``Setting up X11'' has been brought up to date. o Appendix D (``Contents of the Ports Collection'') has been replaced by two appendixes, ``Errata and Addenda'' (the errata list up to date at the time) and ``FreeBSD 3.0'', which describes the differences between FreeBSD 2.x and FreeBSD 3.x. There is no separate errata list for this book. Refer to the second edition errata list. 5. The current, third edition, formatted on 17 May 1999. This is the correct list for this edition.

This list is available in four forms: o A PostScript version, suitable for printing out, at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ps. See page 222 of the book to find out how to print out PostScript. If at all possible, please take this document: it's closest to the original text. Be careful selecting this file with a web browser: it is often impossible to reload the document, and you may see a previously cached version. o An enhanced ASCII version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.txt. When viewed with more or less, this version will show some highlighting and underlining. It's not suitable for direct viewing. o An ASCII-only version at ftp://ftp.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/errata-2.ascii. This version is posted every week to the FreeBSD-questions mailing list. Only take this version if you have real problems with PostScript: I can't be sure that the lack of different fonts won't confuse the meaning. o A web version at http://www.lemis.com/errata-2.html. All these modifications have been applied to the ongoing source text of the book, so if you buy a later edition, they will be in it as well. If you find a Page 1 The Complete FreeBSD bug or a suspected bug in the book, please contact me at General changes _______________ o In a number of places, I suggest the use of the following command to find process information: $ ps aux | grep foo Unfortunately, ps is sensitive to the column width of the terminal emulator upon which it is working. This command usually works fine on a relatively wide xterm, but if you're running on an 80-column terminal, it may truncate exactly the information you're looking for, so you end up with no output. You can fix that with the w option: $ ps waux | grep foo Thanks to Sue Blake for this information Location of the sample files ____________________________ On the 2.2.5 CD-ROM only, the location of the sample files does not match the specifications in the book (/book on the first CD-ROM). The 2.2.5 CD-ROM came out before the book, and it contains the files on the third (repository) CD-ROM as a single gzipped tar file /xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz. It contains the following files: drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/ drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 13:01 1997 cfbsd/mutt/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 352 Oct 15 15:21 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.mail_aliases -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 9394 Oct 15 15:22 1997 cfbsd/mutt/.muttrc drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 18281 Oct 16 16:52 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.fvwm2rc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 1392 Oct 17 12:54 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-desktop -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 296 Oct 17 12:35 1997 cfbsd/scripts/.xinitrc -rwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 622 Oct 17 13:51 1997 cfbsd/scripts/install-rcfiles -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1133 Oct 17 13:00 1997 cfbsd/scripts/Uutry -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 1028 Oct 17 14:02 1997 cfbsd/scripts/README drwxr-xr-x jkh/jkh 0 Oct 18 19:32 1997 cfbsd/docs/ -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 199111 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.txt Page 2 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 189333 Oct 16 14:28 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.txt -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 188108 Oct 16 14:29 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 226439 Oct 16 14:27 1997 cfbsd/docs/packages-by-category.ps -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 788 Oct 16 15:01 1997 cfbsd/README -rw-r--r-- jkh/jkh 248 Oct 17 11:52 1997 cfbsd/errata To extract one of these files, say cfbsd/docs/packages.txt, and assuming you have the CD-ROM mounted as /cdrom, enter: # cd /usr/share/doc # tar xvzf /cdrom/xperimnt/cfbsd/cfbsd.tar.gz cfbsd/docs/packages.txt See page 209 for more information on using tar. These files are an early version of what is described in the book. I'll put up some updated versions on ftp://ftp.lemis.com/ in the near future. Thanks to Frank McCormick for drawing this to my attention. Chapter 8: Setting up X11 _________________________ For FreeBSD 2.2.7, this chapter has changed sufficiently to make it impractical to distribute errata. You can download the PostScript version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.ps, or the ASCII version from ftp://www.lemis.com/pub/cfbsd/xsetup.txt. No HTML version is available. Page xxxiv __________ Before the discussion of the shell prompts in the middle of the page, add: In this book, I recommend the use of the Bourne shell or one of its descendents (sh, bash, pdksh, ksh or zsh). With the exception of sh, they are all in the Ports Collection. I personally use the bash shell. This is a personal preference, and a recommendation, but it's not the standard shell. The standard BSD shell is the C shell (csh), which has a fuller- featured descendent tcsh. In particular, the standard installation sets the root user up with a csh. See page 152 (in this errata) for details of how to change the shell. Page 3 General changes Page 11: Reading the handbook _____________________________ The CD-ROM now includes Netscape. Replace the last paragraph on the page and the example on the following page with: If you're running X, you can use a browser like netscape to read the handbook. If you don't have X running yet, use lynx. Both of these programs are included on the CD-ROM. To install them, enter: # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/netscape-communicator-4.5.tgz or # pkg_add /cdrom/packages/All/lynx-2.8.1.1.tgz The numbers after the name (4.5 and 2.8.1.1) may change after this book has been printed. Use ls to list the names if you can't find these particular versions. Note that lynx is not a complete substitute for netscape: since it is text- only, it is not capable of displaying the large majority of web pages correctly. It will suffice for reading most of the handbook, however. Thanks to Stuart Henderson and for drawing this to my attention. Page 12: Printing the handbook ______________________________ The instructions for formatting the handbook are obsolete. Replace the section starting Alternatively, you can print out the handbook with the following text: Alternatively, you can print out the handbook. You need to have the documentation sources (/usr/doc) installed on your system. You can find them on the second CD-ROM in the directory of the same name. To install them, first mount your CD-ROM (see page 175). Then enter: $ cd /cdrom/usr/doc/handbook $ mkdir -p /usr/doc/handbook you may need to be root for this operation $ cp -pr * /usr/doc/handbook You have a choice of formats for the output: o ascii will give you plain 7-bit ASCII output, suitable for reading on a character-mode terminal. Page 4 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition o html will give you HTML output, suitable for browsing with a web browser. o latex will give you LATEX format, suitable for further processing with TEX and LATEX. o ps will give you PostScript output, probably the best choice for printing. o roff will give you output in troff source. You can process this output with nroff or troff, but it's currently not very polished. LATEX output is a better choice if you want to process it further. Once you have decided your format, use make to create the document. For example, if you decide on PostScript format, you would enter: $ make FORMATS=ps This creates a file handbook.ps which you can then print to a PostScript printer or with the aid of ghostscript (see page 222). Thanks to Bob Beer for drawing this to my attention. Page 45: Preparing floppies for installation _____________________________________________ Replace the paragraph below the list of file names (in the middle of the page) with: The floppy set should contain the file bin.inf and the ones whose names start with bin. followed by two letters. These other files are all 240640 bytes long, except for the final one which is usually shorter. Use the MS-DOS COPY program to copy as many files as will fit onto each disk (5 or 6) until you've got all the distributions you want packed up in this fashion. Copy each distribution into subdirectory corresponding to the base name--for example, copy the bin distribution to the files A:\BIN\BIN.INF, A:\BIN\BIN.AA and so on. Page 80 and 81 ______________ In a couple of examples, the FreeBSD partition is shown as type 164. It should be 165. Thanks to an unknown contributer for this correction (sorry, I lost your name). Page 5 General changes Page 88: setting up for dumping _______________________________ The example mentions a variable savecore in /etc/rc.conf. This variable is no longer used--it's enough to set the variable dumpdev. Page 92 _______ At the end of the section How to install a package add the text: Alternatively, you can install packages from the /stand/sysinstall Final Configuration Menu. We saw this menu on page in figure 4-14 on page 71. When you start sysinstall from the command line, you get to this menu by selecting Index, and then selecting Configure. Page 93 _______ Before the heading Install ports from the first CD-ROM add: Install ports when installing the system ________________________________________ The file ports/ports.tgz on the first CD-ROM is a tar archive containing all the ports. You can install it with the base system if you select the Custom distribution and include the ports collection. If you didn't install them at the time, use the following method to install them all (about 40 MB). Make sure your CD-ROM is mounted (in this example on /cdrom), and enter: Page 96 _______ Replace the example at the top of the page with: Instead, do: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # for i in *; do > ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i > done Page 6 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition If you're using csh or tcsh, enter: # cd /cd4/ports/distfiles # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles make sure you have a distfiles directory # foreach i (*) ? ln -s /cd4/ports/distfiles/$i /usr/ports/distfiles/$i ? end Thanks to Christopher Raven and Francois Jacques for drawing this to my attention. Page 104 ________ The examples at the bottom of the page and the top of the next page specify the wrong directory (/usr). It should be /usr/X11R6. Replace the examples with: For a full install, choose /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz. If you are using sh, enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # for i in /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz; do # tar xzf $i # done If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % foreach i (/cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331*.tgz) % tar xzf $i % end For a minimal installation, first choose a server archive corresponding to your VGA board. If table 8-2 on page 103 doesn't give you enough information, check the server man pages, starting on page 1545, which list the VGA chip sets supported by each server. For example, if you have an ET4000 based board you will use the XF86_SVGA server. In this case you would enter: # cd /usr/X11R6 # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here # for i in bin fnts lib xicf; do # tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331$i.tgz # done Page 7 Install ports when installing the system If you are using csh, enter: % cd /usr/X11R6 % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/X331SVGA.tgz substitute your server name here % foreach i (bin fnts lib xicf) % tar xzf /cdrom/dists/XF86331/$i % end Thanks to Manuel Enrique Garcia Cuesta for pointing out this one. Page 128 ________ Replace the complete text below the example with the following: These values are defaults, and many are either incorrect for FreeBSD (for example the device name /dev/com1) or do not apply at all (for example Xqueue). If you are configuring manually, select one Protocol and one Device entry from the following selection. If you must use a two-button mouse, uncomment the keyword Emulate3Buttons--in this mode, pressing both mouse buttons simultane- ously within Emulate3Timeout milliseconds causes the server to report a middle button press. Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" for Microsoft protocol mice Protocol "MouseMan" for Logitech mice Protocol "PS/2" for a PS/2 mouse Protocol "Busmouse" for a bus mouse Device "/dev/ttyd0" for a mouse on the first serial port Device "/dev/ttyd1" for a mouse on the second serial port Device "/dev/ttyd2" for a mouse on the third serial port Device "/dev/ttyd3" for a mouse on the fourth serial port Device "/dev/psm0" for a PS/2 mouse Device "/dev/mse0" for a bus mouse Emulate3Buttons only for a two-button mouse EndSection You'll notice that the protocol name does not always match the manufacturer's Page 8 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition name. In particular, the Logitech protocol only applies to older Logitech mice. The newer ones use either the MouseMan or Microsoft protocols. Nearly all modern serial mice run one of these two protocols, and most run both. If you are using a bus mouse or a PS/2 mouse, make sure that the device driver is included in the kernel. The GENERIC kernel contains drivers for both mice, but the PS/2 driver is disabled. Use UserConfig (see page 50) to enable it. Page 140 ________ Just before the paragraph The super user add the following paragraph: If you do manage to lose the root password, all may not be lost. Reboot the machine to single user mode (see page 157), and enter: # mount -u / mount root file system read/write # mount /usr mount /usr file system (if separate) # passwd root change the password for root Enter new password: Enter password again: # ^D enter ctrl-D to continue with startup If you have a separate /usr file system (the normal case), you need to mount it as well, since the passwd program is in the directory /usr/bin. Note that you should explicitly state the name root: in single user mode, the system doesn't have the concept of user IDs. Page 148 ________ Replace the text at the top of the page with: Modern shells supply command line editing which resembles the editors vi or Emacs. In bash, sh, ksh, and zsh you can make the choice by entering Page 152 ________ After figure 10-8, add the following text: It would be tedious for every user to put settings in their private initialization files, so the shells also read a system-wide default file. For the Bourne shell family, it is /etc/profile, while the C shell family has three Page 9 Install ports when installing the system files: /etc/csh.login to be executed on login, /etc/csh.cshrc to be executed when a new shell is started after you log in, and /etc/csh.logout to be executed when you stop a shell. The start files are executed before the corresponding individual files. In addition, login classes (page 141) offer another method of setting environment variables at a global level. Changing your shell ___________________ The FreeBSD installation gives root a C shell, csh. This is the traditional Berkeley shell, but it has a number of disadvantages: command line editing is very primitive, and the script language is significantly different from that of the Bourne shell, which is the de facto standard for shell scripts: if you stay with the C shell, you may still need to understand the Bourne shell. The latest version of the Bourne shell sh also includes some command line editing. See page 148 for details of how to enable it. You can get better command line editing with tcsh, in the Ports Collection. You can get both better command line editing and Bourne shell syntax with bash, also in the Ports Collection. If you have root access, you can use vipw to change your shell, but there's a more general way: use chsh (Change Shell). Simply run the program. It starts your favourite editor (as defined by the EDITOR environment variable). Here's an example before: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /bin/csh Full Name: Jack Velte Location: Office Phone: Home Phone: You can change anything after the colons. For example, you might change this to: #Changing user database information for velte. Shell: /usr/local/bin/bash Full Name: Jack Velte Location: On the road Office Phone: +1-408-555-1999 Home Phone: Page 10 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition chsh checks and updates the password files when you save the modifications and exit the editor. The next time you log in, you get the new shell. chsh tries to ensure you don't make any mistakes--for example, it won't let you enter the name of a shell which isn't mentioned in the file /etc/shells--but it's a very good idea to check the shell before logging out. You can try this with su, which you normally use to become super user: bumble# su velte Password: su-2.00$ note the new prompt There are a couple of problems in using tcsh or bash as a root shell: o The shell for root must be on the root file system, otherwise it will not work in single user mode. Unfortunately, most ports of shells put the shell in the directory /usr/local/bin, which is almost never on the root file system. o Most shells are dynamically linked: they rely on library routines in files such as /usr/lib/libc.a. These files are not available in single user mode, so the shells won't work. You can solve this problem by creating statically linked versions of the shell, but this requires programming experience beyond the scope of this book. If you can get hold of a statically linked version, perform the following steps to install it: o Copy the shell to /bin, for example: # cp /usr/local/bin/bash /bin o Add the name of the shell to /etc/shells, in this example the line in bold print: # List of acceptable shells for chpass(1). # Ftpd will not allow users to connect who are not using # one of these shells. /bin/sh /bin/csh /bin/bash You can then change the shell for root as described above. Page 11 Install ports when installing the system Thanks to Lars Koller for drawing this to my attention. Page 160 ________ Replace the text at the fourth bullet with the augmented text: The second-level boot locates the kernel, by default the file /kernel on the root file system, and loads it into memory. It prints the Boot: prompt at this point so that you can influence this choice--see the man page on page 579 for more details of what you can enter at this prompt. Page 169 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: The standard solution for these problems is to relocate the /tmp file system to a different directory, say /usr/tmp, and create a symbolic link from /usr/tmp to /tmp--see Chapter 4, Installing FreeBSD, page 72, for more details. Thanks to Charlie Sorsby for drawing this to my attention. Page 176 ________ Add the following paragraph Unmounting file systems When you mount a file system, the system assumes it is going to stay there, and in the interests of efficiency it delays writing data back to the file system. This is the same effect we discussed on page 158. As a result, if you want to stop using a file system, you need to tell the system about it. You do this with the umount command. Note the spelling--there's no n in the command name. You need to do this even with read-only media such as CD-ROMs: the system assumes it can access the data from a mounted file system, and it gets quite unhappy if it can't. Where possible, it locks removable media so that you can't remove them from the device until you unmount them. Using umount is straightforward: just tell it what to unmount, either the device name or the directory name. For example, to unmount the CD-ROM we Page 12 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition mounted in the example above, you could enter one of these commands: # umount /dev/cd1a # umount /cd1 Before unmounting a file system, umount checks that nobody is using it. If somebody is using it, it will refuse to unmount it with a message like umount: /cd1: Device busy. This message often occurs because you have changed your directory to a directory on the file system you want to remove. For example (which also shows the usefulness of having directory names in the prompt): === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 16 -> umount /cd1 umount: /cd1: Device busy === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) /cd1 17 -> cd === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 18 -> umount /cd1 === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp2) ~ 19 -> Thanks to Ken Deboy for pointing out this omission. Page 180 ________ The example in the middle of the page should read: For example, to generate a second set of 32 pseudo-terminals, enter: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV pty1 You can generate up to 256 pseudo-terminals. They are named ttyp0 through ttypv, ttyq0 through ttyqv, ttyr0 through ttyrv, ttys0 through ttysv, ttyP0 through ttyPv, ttyQ0 through ttyQv, ttyR0 through ttyRv and ttyS0 through ttySv. To create each set of 32 terminals, use the number of the set: the first set is pty0, and the eighth set is pty7. Note that some processes, such as xterm, only look at ttyp0 through ttysv. Thanks to Karl Wagner for pointing out this error. Page 197, first line ____________________ The text of the first full sentence reads: Page 13 Install ports when installing the system The first name, up the the symbol, is the label. In fact, it should read: The first name, up to the | symbol, is the label. Page 208, middle of page ________________________ The example shows the file name /dev/rst0 when using the Bourne shell, and /dev/nrst0 when using C shell and friends. This is inconsistent; use /dev/nrst0 with any shell if you want a non-rewinding tape, or /dev/rst0 if you want a rewinding tape. Thanks to Norman C Rice for pointing out this one. Page 219 ________ Before the section Testing the spooler add the following section: As we saw above, the line printer daemon lpd is responsible for printing spooled jobs. By default it isn't started at boot time. If you're root, you can start it by name: # lpd Normally, however, you will want it to be started automatically when the system starts up. You do this by setting the variable lpd_enable in /etc/rc.conf: lpd_enable="YES" # Run the line printer daemon See page for more details of /etc/rc.conf. Another line in /etc/rc.conf refers to the line printer daemon: lpd_flags="" # Flags to lpd (if enabled). You don't normally need to change this line. See the man page for lpd for details of the flags. Thanks to Tommy G. James for bringing this to my attention. Page 14 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 231 ________ Replace the first line of the example with: xhost presto bumble gw The original version allowed anybody on the Internet to access your system. Thanks to Jerry Dunham for drawing this one to my attention. Page 237 ________ In the section Installing the sample desktop, replace the first paragraph with: You'll find all the files described in this chapter on the first CD-ROM (Installation CD-ROM) in the directory /book. Remember that you must mount the CD-ROM before you can access the files--see page 175 for further details. The individual scripts are in the directory /book/scripts, but you'll probably find it easier to install them with the script install-desktop: Thanks to Chris Kaiser for drawing this to my attention. Page 242 ________ The instructions for extracting the source files from CD-ROM in the middle of page 242 are incorrect. You'll find the kernel sources on the first CD-ROM in the directory /src. Replace the example with: # mkdir -p /usr/src/sys # ln -s /usr/src/sys /sys # cd / # cat /cdrom/src/ssys.[a-d]* | tar xzvf - Thanks to Raymond Noel , Suttipan Limanond and Satwant for finding this one in several small slices. Page 15 Install ports when installing the system Page 257 ________ Replace the paragraph Berkeley Packet Filter with: pseudo-device bpfilter ______________________ The Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) allows you to capture packets crossing a network interface to disk or to examine them with the tcpdump program. Note that this capability represents a significant compromise of network security. The number after bpfilter is the number of concurrent processes that can use the facility. Not all network interfaces support bpf. In order to use the Berkeley Packet Filter, you must also create the device nodes /dev/bpf0 to /dev/bpf3 (if you're using the default number 4). Current- ly, MAKEDEV doesn't help much--you need to create each device separately: # cd /dev # ./MAKEDEV bpf0 # ./MAKEDEV bpf1 # ./MAKEDEV bpf2 # ./MAKEDEV bpf3 Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 264 ________ In the list of disk driver flags, add: o Bit 12 (0x1000) enables LBA (logical block addressing mode). If this bit is not set, the driver accesses the disk in CHS (cylinder/head/sector) mode. o In CHS mode, if bits 11 to 8 are not equal to 0, they specify the number of heads to assume (between 1 and 15). The driver recalculates the number of cylinders to make up the total size of the disk. Page 16 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition Page 273, ``Building the kernel'' _________________________________ Replace the example with: Next, change to the build directory and build the kernel: # cd ../../compile/FREEBIE # make depend # make The make depend is needed even if the directory has just been created: apart from creating dependency information, it also creates some files needed for the build. Thanks to Mark Ovens for drawing this to my attention. Page 283, ``Creating the source tree'' ______________________________________ Add a third point to what you need to know: 3. Possibly, the date of the last update that you want to be included in the checkout. If you specify this date, cvs ignores any more recent updates. This option is often useful when somebody discovers a recently introduced bug in -CURRENT: you check out the modules as they were before the bug was introduced. You specify the date with the -D option, for example -D "10 December 1997". Page 285, after the second example. ___________________________________ Add the text: If you need to check out an older version, for example if there are problems with the most recent version of -CURRENT, you could enter: # cvs co -D "10 December 1997" src/sys This command checks out the kernel sources as of 10 December 1997. Page 17 Install ports when installing the system Page 294 ________ Add the following section: Problems executing Linux binaries _________________________________ One of the problems with the ELF format used by more recent Linux binaries is that they usually contain no information to identify them as Linux binaries. They might equally well be BSD/OS or UnixWare binaries. That's not really a problem at this point, since the only ELF format that FreeBSD 3.2 understands is Linux, but FreeBSD-CURRENT recognizes a native FreeBSD ELF format as well, and of course that's the default. If you want to run a Linux ELF binary on such a system, you must brand the executable using the program brandelf. For example, to brand the StarOffice program swriter3, you would enter: # brandelf -t linux /usr/local/StarOffice-3.1/linux-x86/bin/swriter3 Thanks to Dan Busarow for bringing this to my attention. Page 364, middle of page ________________________ Change the text from: The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though they may be in lower case. to The names MYADDR and HISADDR are keywords which represent the addresses at each end of the link. They must be written as shown, though newer versions of ppp allow you to write them in lower case. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for this correction. Page 368 ________ Replace the paragraph after the second example with: In FreeBSD version 3.0 and later, specify the options PPP_BSDCOMP and Page 18 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition PPP_DEFLATE to enable two kinds of compression. You'll also need to specify the corresponding option in Kernel PPP's configuration file. These options are not available in FreeBSD version 2. Thanks to Brian Somers for this information. Page 397 ________ In the section ``Nicknames'', the example should read: www IN CNAME freebie ftp IN CNAME presto In other words, there should be a space between CNAME and the system name. Page 422 ________ Replace the text above the example with: tcpdump is a program which monitors a network interface and displays selected information which passes through it. It uses the Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf), an optional component of the kernel. It is not included in the GENERIC kernel: see page 257 for information on how to configure it. If you don't configure the Berkeley Packet Filter, you will get a message like tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: device not configured If you forget to create the devices for bpf, you will get a message like: tcpdump: /dev/bpf0: No such file or directory Since tcpdump poses a potential security problem, you must be root in order to run it. The simplest way to run it is without any parameters. This will cause tcpdump to monitor and display all traffic on the first active network interface, normally Ethernet: Thanks to Christopher Raven for drawing this to my attention. Page 19 Install ports when installing the system Page 423 ________ The description at the top of the page incorrectly uses the term IP address instead of Ethernet address. In addition, a page number reference is incorrect. Replace the paragraph with: o Line 1 shows an ARP request: system presto is looking for the Ethernet address of wait. It would appear that wait is currently not responding, since there is no reply. o Line 2 is not an IP message at all. tcpdump shows the Ethernet addresses and the beginning of the packet. We don't consider this kind of request in this book. o Line 3 is a broadcast ntp message. We looked at ntp on page 160. o Line 4 is another attempt by presto to find the IP address of wait. o Line 5 is a broadcast message from bumble on the rwho port, giving information about its current load averages and how long it has been up. See the man page for rwho on page 1167 for more information. o Line 6 is from a TCP connection between port 6000 on freebie and port 1089 on presto. It is sending 384 bytes (with the sequence numbers 536925467 to 536925851; see page 305), and is acknowledging that the last byte it received from presto had the sequence number 325114346. The window size is 17280. o Line 7 is another ARP request. presto is looking for the Ethernet address of freebie. How can that happen? We've just seen that they have a TCP connection. In fact, ARP information expires after 20 minutes. It's quite possible that all connections between presto and freebie have been dormant for this period, so presto needs to find freebie's IP address again. o Line 8 is the ARP reply from freebie to presto giving its Ethernet address. o Line 9 shows a reply from presto on the connection to freebie that we saw on line 6. It acknowledges the data up to sequence number 536925851, but doesn't send any itself. o Line 10 shows another 448 bytes of data from freebie to presto, and acknowledging the same sequence number from presto as in line 6. Thanks to Sergei S. Laskavy for drawing this to my Page 20 Errata and addenda for the Complete FreeBSD, second edition attention. Page 450: anonymous ftp _______________________ Replace the paragraph starting with Create a user ftp: Create a user ftp, with the anonymous ftp directory as the home directory and the shell /dev/null. Using /dev/null as the shell makes it impossible to log in as user ftp, but does not interfere with the use of anonymous ftp. ftp can be a member of group bin, or you can create a new group ftp by adding the group to /etc/group. See page 138 for more details of adding users, and the man page on page 805 for adding groups. Thanks to Mark S. Reichman for drawing this to my attention. Page 466, before the ps example _______________________________ Add another bullet: o Finally, you may find it convenient to let some other system handle all your mail delivery for you: you just send anything you can't deliver locally to this other host, which sendmail calls a smart host. This is particularly convenient if you send your mail with UUCP. To tell sendmail to use a smart host (in our case, mail.example.net), find the following line in sendmail.cf: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DS Change it to: # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmail.example.net Page 478, ``Running Apache'' ____________________________ The text describes the location of the server as /usr/local/www/server/httpd. This appears to depend on where you get the port from. Some people report the file being at the more likely location /usr/local/sbin/httpd (though note the Page 21 Install ports when installing the system directory sbin, not bin). Check both locations if you run into trouble. Thanks to Sue Blake for this information. Page 492 ________ Replace references to nmdb with nmbd. Page 493 ________ Replace the last paragraph on the page with: socket options is hardly mentioned in the documentation, but it's very important: many Microsoft implementations of TCP/IP are inefficient and establish a new TCP more often than necessary. Select the socket options TCP_NODELAY and IPTOS_LOWDELAY, which can speed up the response time of such applications by over 95%.

Well, when using dd, be careful: some drives (IDE) won't allow you go without a trouble if you dd if=/dev/wd0 of=/dev/wd1, since this will overwrite some essential data disk uses for operation (this is known to be true for Seagate Medalist series).

I use pppctl to look at the timers. There is an example in "man pppctl" for the status. It shows you the connect time. You could do 'pppctl to "show phy" | grep "Connect time"'. I use the local domain socket and my show phy alias for root is status (pppctl /var/run/internet show phy) I created an alias called "conn" by combining status and the grep. It shows the connect time. I start user-ppp as root and you have to be logged in as the user that started user-ppp to run pppctl.

I meant that I have to be logged in as Root. It probably doesn't matter for you because you probably start ppp from your current login and would be logged in as the same user when you wanted to run pppctl. I start user-ppp when I boot as root in the -auto mode. Everytime one of my computers need the Internet FreeBSD dials out. Then, when I telnet to the FreeBSD machine to get a status, I have to su to root first and then I can run pppctl.

I installed the 19991208-CURRENT snapshot on my Sony Vaio 505tx a few weeks ago and had no problems getting my Linksys EC2T pcmcia ethernet card up and running. Last night I checked out new -current sources and did a make world. Everything seems to be in order except that now the ethernet card fails to get setup correctly.

But now I've=20 got seemingly worse problems. =20 I decided to update the source again and 'make world' again, so I=20 could start the whole project over from scratch. Before dropping into=20 single user mode to rebuild the system, I did 'rm -rf /usr/obj/'. =20 This is supposed to make the 'make world' speed up somewhat. Funny=20 thing was, it won't allow me to remove some of the directories under=20 /usr/obj/. =20 Yes, I was running as root. So I went down into the directory and=20 find a strange thing: /usr/obj/usr/src/games/dm/FreeBSD But I can't cd to this directory because it doesn't exist! I can't=20 remove it either! =20 I thought, oh well, I'll try 'make world' anyway. It stops with Error=20 code 1, because of that damn phantom directory. Is my filesystem=20 corrupted or something?
