Hartmann" To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Cc: newbies@xfree86.org Subject: XDM broken in XFree 4.0.1!? Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hello. I posted several question in the past in both FreeBSD newsgroups and also in XFree newsgroup. I have many tr trouble with XFree86 4.0.1_8 (as offered in FreeBSD ports today). The problem regards to XDM, the display manager. XDM seems to be not willing to forward XDMCP queries in version 4.0.1. I tested this with a diskless X terminal, which is set up from FreeBSD 4.2 which boots FreeBSD and starts XFree86 as its X server with an indirect query to a host running XDM only and offering several hosts within our LAN. I use two of those hosts, each setup similar but for testing purposes they run sometimes with different configurations. XFree86 4.0.1 was either compiled with XDM-AUTHENTICATION-1 ON, SecureRPC ON and PAM ON or with all three facilities off. I did several permutations with the ON/OFF options of these parts, in all cases with no success. The problem is: I can see all the hosts I want to be offered by the chooser on both XDM servers in the chooser, but I can not select one and connect to the specified host! This fails to EACH HOST running 4.0.1! I have two Linux systems running in my network (I do not know much about Linux, but configuring X11 is the same task apart from slight differences in location of the main distribution and starting XDM and X server). Linux bahves the same way like FreeBSD! Nor the host itself running the chooser can be choosen from any host, nor is any host offered by the chooser of the linux XDM server choosable. XFree 4.0.1 interacts the same way when it is acting to the same 4.0.1 version running X host/server! And I think I can surely exclude any kind of filtering problems, because I switched off any kind of filtering and other special authetication specialities both on Linux and FreeBSD. And now the curiosity: I have a third FreeBSD server, running FreeBSD 4.2 also like the two others, but due to an older graphics adaptor I must install XFree86 3.3.6 on this machine. Well, I set up the same environment of hosts and a chooser/XDM server for my LAN and tried to obtain a chooser from this 3.3.6-typed host from the same X terminal with could not gain access to any offered host. And now, using 3.3.6, it works! I tested then whether to gain access to any refused host by this X terminal and I really got access to each host by doing a direct query. I checked again Xaccess, but it was senseless because the same configuration works under XFree 86 3.3.6. On the other hand: XFree86 3.3.6 alos offers SecureRPC, PAM and XDM-AUTHENTICATION-1 support and this to me having no effect. Well, now I wish to know whether this is a well known bug in XFree 4 or has the protocol been changed? I seems to me like forwarding does not work, neither on Linux, nor on FreeBSD based XFree86 4.0.1 systems offering XDM/chooser. Is anybody out here who's already setup a configuration like mine? Server is FreeBSD 4.2, XFree86 4.0.1_8 (FBSD ports) and Client is the same. X server is started permanently on the client by X :0 -indrect destination_host using ttyv0 as its bounding tty. On Linux the situation is similar, Linux Kernel 2.2.14, XFree 4.0.1. If the X server interacts with an XFree86 4.0.1 XDM host, I can see all offered hosts, but I can not chooser on: after choosing a host, it seems that a connecting attempt has been commited but without success, chooser resets (screen is flashing, think its reseting) and offers a new host list by pinging again each host. I use either the standard configuration or a specialized one with no authetication schemes or similar difficulties. Well, each help is appreciated, please email me if there are solutions for this problem or if anybody has the same problem. I twould be nice to hear from you if you sucessfully set up the same configuration I use and how you did, thanks in advance, Oliver - MfG O.

However, installing 4.1 today I came across a problem getting ep0 initialised at boot. Although I finally resolved the problem (put the ifconfig command into /etc/defaults/rc.conf) and found a doc relating to this in the mailing list archives, has it been acknowledged that there is a problem with the sysinstall network config module, or is it just my bad luck? I use Linux mainly day-to-day but like to keep my hand in with BSD.

I just yesterday downloaded an updated ports collection from the site and decided to recompile X with my specific cpu type in hopes of optimizing it abit.. well everything was going fine until I ran startx (yes I installed wrapper). When x started up everything was fine except my mouse.. evertime I moved it it would jump all over the screen and bring up menus as if I clicked buttons which I had not.. any ideas? btw I thought about moused and I do not have it running.. any help/advise is appreciated Thank you To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-newbies Wed Nov 15 22:20:35 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-newbies@freebsd.org Received: from arisen.learn.ac.lk (unknown [203.115.23.65]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D20B037B4C5 for ; Wed, 15 Nov 2000 22:20:30 -0800 (PST) Received: from tissa.mrt.ac.lk (IDENT:root@tissa.mrt.ac.lk [192.248.8.97]) by arisen.learn.ac.lk (8.9.3/8.9.3-L2) with ESMTP id MAA14837 for ; Thu, 16 Nov 2000 12:21:59 +0600 Received: from hantana.pdn.ac.lk (IDENT:root@hantana.pdn.ac.lk [192.248.40.1]) by tissa.mrt.ac.lk (8.9.3/8.8.7) with ESMTP id MAA31654 for ; Thu, 16 Nov 2000 12:18:08 +0600 Received: from aiken.cs.pdn.ac.lk (csgw.pdn.ac.lk [192.248.40.5]) by hantana.pdn.ac.lk (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id MAA19580 for ; Thu, 16 Nov 2000 12:29:14 +0600 Received: from localhost (cpe9609@localhost) by aiken.cs.pdn.ac.lk (8.9.3/8.7.3) with ESMTP id MAA13855 for ; Thu, 16 Nov 2000 12:14:27 +0600 Date: Thu, 16 Nov 2000 12:14:26 +0600 (LKT) From: Asitha Bandaranayake To: freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: x-problems in FreeBSD In-Reply-To: <3A13B5FA.9080104@phonesex.org> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi all! i recently installed FreeBSD in my machine which is having RH62 as well. xconfiguring took me while, since it wasn't comfortable with the parameters i passed to it, the defaults for RH.

If that is the case, startx is a script so you can look at all the commands it issues. One or more of XF86_SVGA, XF86_VGA16, etc should be in /usr/X11R6/bin. The default script using files in $HOME tostart your window manager. 2) All that being said, I have always installed this as a distribution and recently read on questions or stable that it is a complex install and is best done from sysinstall. Should you choose this route, you can do that by pkg_delete, and perhaps make clean, you need to consult the man pages and or the handbook and then running /stand/sysinstall choosing the post install configuration option.

It is also available at http://www.welearn.com.au/freebsd/newbies/) FreeBSD-Questions@FreeBSD.ORG is the place to send all questions about installing, configuring, running and using FreeBSD. All help requests are handled by FreeBSD-Questions, including newbies questions. FreeBSD-Newbies is different. We don't ask for help or answer how-to questions. It is a discussion forum for newbies. FreeBSD-Newbies provides a place for new FreeBSD users to meet and covers any of the activities of newbies that are not already dealt with elsewhere. Examples include helping each other to learn more on our own, finding and using resources, problem solving techniques, how to seek help elsewhere, how to use mailing lists and which lists to use, general chat, making mistakes, boasting, sharing ideas, stories, moral (but not technical) support, and taking an active part in the FreeBSD community. We take our problems and support questions to freebsd-questions, and use freebsd-newbies to meet others who are doing the same things that we do as newbies. One of the things we do together is learn more effective ways to find help when we need it. Here are some suggestions: When something doesn't work the way you expect 1. First look at the errata for your release of FreeBSD at http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/releases/ for the latest information and security advisories. 2. Search the Handbook, FAQ, and mail archives at http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/search.html 3. If you still have a question or problem, collect the output of `uname -a' and of any relevant program(s) and email your question to FreeBSD-questions@FreeBSD.ORG. Mailing lists When you have a problem that you can't solve by yourself, there's only one support mailing list and that's FreeBSD-questions@FreeBSD.ORG. FreeBSD-questions helps with installation and basic setup as well as more general and advanced questions. You don't have to actually join freebsd-questions before asking a question there. Replies to your question will normally be sent to you personally as well as to the list. Just make sure you have read and followed the guidelines for posting, because you might find them different to what you're used to. If you do subscribe to freebsd-questions you'll have the advantage of seeing all of the recent questions and their answers. Before you post to FreeBSD-questions, please read the guidelines at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html Many of the people who answer FreeBSD-questions are very knowledgeable, but they get frustrated when they get questions which are difficult to understand. http://www.lemis.com/email.html is worth reading too. If you're not sure that you can follow these guidelines, come back and ask the other newbies for help on how to post an effective question to the support mailing list. Maybe your question has been asked before. If you search the mailing list archives at http://www.freebsd.org/search.html first you might get the answer right away. It's always worth trying. Other mailing lists (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/eresources.html#ERESOURCES-CHARTERS) cover specialised areas and many are more developer-oriented. You'll need to read their charters carefully before participating, but it's probably a good idea to ask on either -newbies or -questions for advice about where to post a more specialised question. FreeBSD-announce is a very low volume read-only list for occasional announcements, such as notice of new releases, and the Really Quick Newsletter. It's worth subscribing to FreeBSD-announce too. Manuals You'll always be expected to show that you have made some effort to use the available documentation before asking for help. That's not always as easy as it sounds! If you know what documentation you need but can't locate it, send a brief query to FreeBSD-questions. If you don't know what you need, always have trouble finding it, or can't make any sense of it when you do, ask some patient newbies to steer you in the right direction. Anyone interested in writing or reviewing documentation for FreeBSD is encouraged to join the FreeBSD Documentation Project. Details are at http://www.freebsd.org/docproj/docproj.html Other resources A resource list is available at http://www.freebsd.org/projects/newbies.html to help new and inexperienced FreeBSD users to find relevant information quickly. It includes books, on line documents and tutorials, and links to web pages that other newbies have found useful for learning. If you have a suggestion for good material to be included, please write to freebsd-newbies and tell us about it. But I have seen people asking questions here! It is quite common for people to send the wrong kind of post to a mailing list. Because we're newbies it'll certainly happen here from time to time. The best thing to do if you see a message that doesn't belong on a list is to ignore it. There's always someone around whose job it is to sort these problems out privately. The posts to the lists go straight through, whatever their content. It is going to be confusing for a little while because we're all newbies so we all make mistakes. That's OK. One thing we're going to see a fair bit is people posting questions, believing they're doing the right thing by posting here as newbies, not realising how it works. If someone answers those questions the situation will snowball. There's nothing wrong with helping someone to redirect their question to freebsd-questions, but please do so gently. There's nothing wrong with the occasional mistake either. So all questions, requests for help, etc still go to freebsd-questions as usual. Ours is more of a discussion group, a place where newbies can relax with other newbies and focus more on our successes than on our temporary imperfection. We can talk about things here that are not allowed on freebsd-questions. We're also a bit freer to make the mistakes that we need to make in order to learn. _________________________________________________________________ To Subscribe to FreeBSD-Newbies: Send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "subscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message.

Is there any support for ADSL? 3. Where can I find detailed explanations abot FreeBSD firewalls? And can I run a FreeBSD system on a 486 PC? Thanks for answering my questions.

We have a testing and 'destroyable' server running freebsd 4.1.1-STABLE, on= =20 a 486, 20MB RAM, 2GB SCSI @ my university... it's running pretty well... we have since email and ftp services to DNS... and when we migrated our=20 main server to FreeBSD this one was the server responsible for resolving=20 all the university DNS requests and external clients... and it did it! ]:) FreeBSD is the best OS u can find... and mostly questions on if freebsd can do something or not, u'll have YEAP= =20 as answer..

This is rather counter-productive, as it forces anyone who wants to customize the kernel to also to a (superfluous) make buildworld. Yes, the 'old' method of building a kernel works, but that method is depriciated. This should either be fixed or at the very least mentioned in '/usr/src/UPDATING'.

That's the whole point of buildkernel. It uses the newly built world, by default in /usr/obj, instead of the currently installed userland. It gets around a lot of back compatibility issues when upgrading. > This is rather counter-productive, as it forces anyone who wants to > customize the kernel to also to a (superfluous) make buildworld. No, it does not. > Yes, the 'old' method of building a kernel works, but that method is > depriciated. It is not deprecated for rebuilding a kernel with the same sources that were used to build the current world. It _is_ depricated for upgrading, i.e. it is not guaranteed to work if you've changed your sources. For example, if you get a RELEASE CD and want to just want to customize your kernel with the source that comes on the CD, go ahead and do the 'old' manual kernel build and install. However, if you CVSup to STABLE, you will need to do the buildworld and buildkernel step up. > This should either be fixed or at the very least mentioned in > '/usr/src/UPDATING'. Actually, I think the buildkernel target could check if any buildworld was recently attempted at all and exit with a helpful error. -- Crist J.
