All ports are wired out. Plug them into a KVM and you can run any OS on them. Saves tons of space. They also have a Dual P3 board. SCSI is an option. I like that they use the SBC since they are designed to be flat. Netfinity/VA Linux/Dell 1U's have custom motherboards so later upgrade is difficult. Generic ATX motherboard are not designed to be flat, however, most motherboards can fit a 2U case that I've seen. Happy customer. We've bought 16 so far with more on order. Doug A.

A little summary: To disable the BIOS virus protection is the key to make installation working on AMD-K7 + ASUS K7V for all versions after 3.5 and 4.x. But this seems a bug because 2.2.8-RELEASE can install on such new hardware. When 2.2.x branch was out of archive, the K7 even has not born yet.

Check out the stuff at www.rackmaster.com Some very excellent industrial case designs. I've been using Elan Vitals S30 cases up to now, but will probably move to Rackmaster for the next batch.

Rather than TTL -5v to 0v at 40ma, it's +5/-5 (IIRC) with micro-electric chair amperage. The only practical effect of using differential is you can run a *much* longer cable. Do *not* mix non-differential or differential devices. Devices have gotten more resilient, but you could certainly fry things that way. Note that LVD (low voltage differential) is a different thing entirely. I won't go into that- check any one of the HBA or Drive vendor's websites- you'll find overviews of that there (or see http://www.ultra160-scsi.com for Ultra3).

I am no expert, but from what I know you can chain more scsi devices to a differential and use longer cables without degradation of the signal. You have to use different drives with it.

Umm, hmm, first question would be.. what is your definition of 'low-level format'? Second is, does the drive actually show up in the Adaptec SCSI BIOS?

Anyone doing any new wiring needs to use this color scheme. If you have pre-existing wiring using 568A, you need to stick with that since being consistent is more important than using the most common. If you are using either 100MBit or 1000MBit Ethernet, you MUST use one of these color schemes. Simply making up your own will not work. Each pair in the wire is twisted at a different rate to reduce crosstalk, so it DOES matter which pairs you use for what purpose. > Bandwidth-wasting trivia questions: > > What purpose does the thousands (millions?) of miles of basically > unused copper connecting pins 4, 5, 7 & 8 in CAT-5 cables > throughout the world serve?

Because it is not Ethernet specific. You install this wiring as a part of a structured wiring system which can be used for just about any low-voltage system, including telephones, alarm systems, motor control, Token Ring, CDDI, Ethernet, etc. etc. etc... Using high-quality cable for everything is a good thing, since you never know when you might reuse a cable for something else. Those who were only doing 10MBit and installed CAT5 certified cable even though they only needed CAT3 were the smart ones, since they could later upgrade to 100MBit and now Gigabit over the same cable plant (well, sometimes... Gigabit is truly picky and your CAT5 installation has to be near perfect). > We actually have some 10m drop cables with "CAT 5" printed on the > jacketing but only four wires -- I even sacrificed one to science > and found no unused pairs in the jacket -- I've never seen any > others, and these carry 100FDX without complaints. CAT5 doesn't specify how many wires need to be inside a particular jacket. It specifies only the electrical characteristics of the cable. The most common is four-pair, but two-pair works fine for all Ethernet except for 100Base-T4 and Gigabit. -- Chris Dillon - cdillon@wolves.k12.mo.us - cdillon@inter-linc.net FreeBSD: The fastest and most stable server OS on the planet.

There has been no response, so either there is no interest or its the wrong list. If this isn't the correct list would some kind soul redirect me to an appropriate one please? While Intel Etherexpress cards work just fine, I'd like to see this fixed if possible (or at least know that hardware is broken and isn't fixable if thats the case). I'm seeing trap 12 kernel panics from a FreeBSD 4-0 Release box when I have a Allied Telesyn tx2500 / Realtek 10/100 Ethernet card in the machine. It seems the card is the likely culprit because replacing it with a pair of Intel Etherexpresses has cleared the problem. The box is an Intel 440-BX2 motherboard with a P3 600 and 256 Megs of ECC ram. There is an argus tcp audit server running on the box sniffing on a 100meg segment out to our OC3 connection to the Internet. It appears to be input traffic related, since the box doesn't panic at smaller traffic volumes (I have one on my downtown campus also on a 100 link but with much lower traffic that has been up 11 days: % ifconfig -a rl0: flags=8943 mtu 1500 inet 192.168.1.191 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 ether 00:a0:d2:05:a9:10 media: autoselect (none) status: active supported media: autoselect 100baseTX 100baseTX 10baseT/UT % w 8:34PM up 11 days, 11:31, 1 user, load averages: 0.02, 0.01, 0.00 I expect that I can capture traffic from the link using tcpdump and feed it back at a test box using tcpreplay and blow the driver up at will (although I haven't verified that yet). I can certainly continue breaking it by attaching it to the live link. So that brings up the question(s) is there a driver maintainer interested in trying to fix the driver? That would raise the sub question are there later changes that might fix this and thus I should try and figure out how to get a test machine tracking the latest 4.x code via SUP, or move to the 4.0 STABLE release (which I didn't see anywhere in a look on ftp.freebsd.org) and see if that helps? I'm interested in getting the driver inproved (the cards are cheap and will output data using tcpreplay at the same 90 megs per second the Etherexpress will, with the 3c0m 905B being down at 85 megs). I have zero experience in FreeBSD kernel debugging and don't necessarily have a lot of time but I'm willing to test fixes try if there is someone interested in trying to make them.
