I just logged onto an old 2.2.8 system I set up wa-ay back. vprintf(3) sure is in stdio as I was sure it would. BTW, was there a reason you sent this twice under different subjects? -- Crist J.

Probably has nothing to do with an interface card. Do you have a card that uses the ed(4) device? How did you build Samba? From the ports? -- Crist J.

Are you booting from the CD or booting from floppies? Where did you get this CD and what is supposed to be on it? As for the graphics card, that is a XFree86 issue, not really FreeBSD. See, http://www.xfree86.org But IIRC, you'll at least be able to use it in SVGA mode. Not sure what you might be able to do as far as any special features of the card. I know it's been discussed 10e6 times on this list. You might want to search the archive. -- Crist J.

I've got a Highpoint Technologies HPT370 ATA66+ controller integrated into my ABIT KA7-100 motherboard. FreeBSD works perfectly when my harddrive is on my regular master IDE channel. When I put the drive on the ATA100 IDE bus, FreeBSD will boot but it can't find the root file system. What I find strange is that it seems to find this controller during the boot process. During boot the screen displays: atapci1 (High Point HPT366 ATA66 controller) port blah irq 11 at device 19.0 on pci0 ata2 at blah on atapci1 The system seems to have found what I'm looking for... but I can't (or don't know how) to get the manual root file system thingy to work. If I try "ufs:/dev/pci0" I get an error Fatal Trap 12, a page fault. I try ufs:/dev/ata2 and it says there are no devices ata (or atapci for that matter). From that boot prompt I can get the system to display even the FreeBSD file system off this drive on the ATA100 device with the command lsdev. However, with all of this said, I can't get FreeBSD to find root. Is there anything I can try?! Please help me! If you need more information I would be glad to supply it!

The error message you pasted shouldn't have happened, since 2.2.8 does have vprintf(). Either you are building curl wrong, or your archive is damaged.

I haven't tried running an X-server on windows but it is my understanding that VNC sends a lot less data.

After the etherboot 3c509.com loads, and finds the bootpd server, downloads the kernel, and the kernel starts to boot, it freezes at "bootpc_init: using network interface 'ep0'" This is the server: FreeBSD nova 4.1-STABLE FreeBSD 4.1-STABLE #0: Fri Aug 4 19:26:40 CDT 2000 root@nova:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/NOVA i386 I have tftp and bootp commented out of a generic /etc/inetd.conf file. Here's /etc/exports: /usr -maproot=0:0 -alldirs ndisk0.test.org I copied GENERIC, and added the following for a DISKLESS kernel: options NFS options NFS_ROOT options BOOTP options BOOTP_NFSROOT options BOOTP_COMPAT ... and removed the FFS_ROOT option. I installed the kernel in /usr/tftpboot as kernel. /usr/tftpboot is symlinked to /tftpboot. I also hardlinked /usr/tftpboot/kernel to /usr/diskless/rootfs/{client} as kernel. My /etc/bootptab file looks like this: .enet:\ :ds=192.168.0.10 192.168.0.5:\ :sm=255.255.255.0:\ :dn=test.org:\ :gw=fw1:vm=rfc1048:t=ether: ndisk0:ha=0020afcace47:bf=/tftpboot/kernel:ip=192.168.0.15:tc=.enet: I then created a /tftpboot/cfg.192.168.0.15 that looks like this: rootfs 192.168.0.10:/usr/diskless/rootfs/192.168.0.15 swapfs 192.168.0.10:/usr/diskless/swapfs swapsize 20000 hostname ndisk0.test.org And lastly, I'm using ehterboot-4.6.1, and created 3c509.com for the bootrom. It works, and can transfer the ELF kernel over, which does boot. It just stalls out at the bootpc_init line, which I'm still thinking is in the kernel process. Any suggestions? TIA, Jon p.s.

Server not routing packets anymore... 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 FreeBSD 4.1-R server that has 2 NICs in it. The first NIC, ed0, is on a /30 netblock that is just this machine and the gateway to my ISP. The other NIC, ed1, is on a seperate /29 netblock and serves as the gateway for the 5 computers behind it. I have all the PCs (mixed environment Windows, FreeBSD and Mac) set up with static IPs on the same netblock as ed1 and using ed1's IP as the gateway aaddress. The problem is that none of the PCs can talk to the outside world thru the server. The server has connectivity to the outside world, but does not seem to be routing packets out for the other machines behind it. From my FreeBSD box running behind the server I can SSH into the server, but I can's SSH or ping to the outside world. Here is what I have in my rc.conf file: hostname="route-1.damn-cool.net" defaultrouter="209.134.127.238" gateway_enable="YES" router_enable="YES" ifconfig_ed0="inet 209.134.127.237 netmask 255.255.255.252" ifconfig_ed1="inet 209.134.101.81 netmask 255.255.255.248" linux_enable="YES" #firewall_enable="YES" #firewall_script="/etc/rc.firewall" #firewall_type="OPEN" log_in_vain="YES" forward_sourceroute="YES" and here is what netstat -r gives for output: Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Netif Expire default 209.134.127.238 UGSc 3 14 ed0 localhost localhost UH 0 0 lo0 209.134.101.80 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff UHLWb 1 3 ed1 => 209.134.101.80/29 link#2 UC 0 0 ed1 => route-1 0:20:78:13:4d:49 UHLW 0 12 lo0 209.134.127.236/30 link#1 UC 0 0 ed0 => route-1 0:20:78:13:43:b9 UHLW 0 6 lo0 209.134.127.238 0:0:c:45:5c:44 UHLW 3 3 ed0 1137 If anyone has any ideas I would greatly apreciate it.

Seems if an IP address connects to my server that won't resolve, then NIS hangs the session and I end up with stacks of sendmail and ftpd's that just pile up till the box gets overloaded with processes.. :( As an example, here is a netstat from one of the machines: tcp4 0 0 mail1.ftp nts2.1634 TIME_WAIT tcp4 0 0 mail1.smtp fj.egroups.com.19006 TIME_WAIT yp_match: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_match: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_match: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_match: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out yp_match: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out Note the Timed out messages will just keep on scrolling, and the netstat will never return to the shell prompt unless I break out of the process. So really any program that needs DNS resolution this could happen to. I have several machines in the NIS group, all are FBSD 4.0 or 4.1, some are Intel, and some are DEC Alpha, and they all do the exact same thing. Any ideas, as I have to keep rebooting every couple days to clear the thousands of processes that just stack up over time.. :( --- Howard Leadmon - howardl@abs.net - http://www.abs.net ABSnet Internet Services - Phone: 410-361-8160 - FAX: 410-361-8162 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Sun Aug 13 12:10:53 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from merganser.its.uu.se (merganser.its.uu.se [130.238.6.236]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 63FAE37B9D0 for ; Sun, 13 Aug 2000 12:10:46 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ertr1013@student.uu.se) Received: from regulus.student.UU.SE ([130.238.5.2]:44647 "HELO convert rfc822-to-8bit ertr1013.student.uu.se") by merganser.its.uu.se with SMTP id ; Sun, 13 Aug 2000 21:10:15 +0200 Received: (qmail 2387 invoked by uid 1001); 13 Aug 2000 19:10:23 -0000 Date: Sun, 13 Aug 2000 21:10:23 +0200 From: Erik Trulsson To: Mark Ovens Cc: mojgan kazemi , questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: question!

As a summer project, I thought I would take an old 486DX2-66 with 16M RAM and load an operating system that wasn't controlled by Microsoft. It was meant to be a learning experience since I don't interface with Unix on a daily basis. The final objective is to see if I can get this old box running as a network server and tie in the two Windows clients I have in the house into a mini home network. Good idea until I ran into the following problem, a solution for which I would gratefully accept: The PC has an EISA motherboard with an SMC LAN card and a SCSI HD as well as a SCSI CD ROM. I created the image floppies as described in the install instructions and all seemed to be going well, including the partitioning of the HD. A quick look with SCROLL LOCK ON shows the following last four lines: cd0: Removeable CD-ROM SCSI-2 drive cd0: 3.300 MB/s transfers cd0: cd present [62118 x 2048 byte records] /stand/sysinstall running as init on vty0 The CD reference above is a distribution of FreeBSD 4.1 release that I pulled down off the Net and burned onto the CD. I believe I have captured all the most important (essential) sub-directories off the Net (bin, crypto, etc) All goes well until I try to install the FreeBSD distribution off CDROM when I get the following error message: Error mounting /dev/cd0c on /dist: No such file or directory(2) With my non-existent Unix skills I am now at a loss as to what to do next. Can you "kick-start" me in the right direction and I'll go ahead and either read some more or make the necessary configuration changes to get this release loaded.

If you want to burn your own CD you should get the iso-image of 4.1-RELEASE and burn that. Trying to make it work by getting individual files/directories is non-trivial to say the least.

My address will be dynamically assigned, and it seems that both PPPoE and dhclient take care of this. But after a little more reading, it seems that dhclient is for a true Ethernet, whereas I should stick with PPPoE, right? Do I have to make changes to /etc/rc.conf like this: ifconfig_xl0="DHCP" or should I just leave it alone, since my PPPoE connection will be using the tun0 device?

You need to be a client, which uses the ppp client software. Keep your dialup configuration in your /etc/ppp/ppp.conf file; add the PPPoE configuration as a separate label. Say your dialup configuration is labeled "dialup:" and the PPPoE is labeled "ether:".

Leave it alone. Here's a piece of my ppp.conf which configures tun0 and your choice of ethernet device to do PPPoE. (You'd change ed1 to xl0).

I run a FreeBSD-based web server with Apache, hosting multiple (name-based) virtual hosts. Now, this server is co-located, and the provider limits us by either bandwidth, or data transfer per month. At the moment, we're on the latter scheme because it's cheaper, and we're a quite low traffic host (this'll change... ;) Clearly, our provider is limiting us on a packet-by-packet basis, more than likely with software in the router we dangle off. Now, I'd like to implement a similar bandwidth/data quantity limiting system for my clients, so I can prevent one website eating up all my bandwidth. Particularly, I'd like to limit the traffic from each VirtualHost on the server. This accounting would therefore have to be done at the HTTP level. Now, I've looked through the Apache docs, and I can't find any references to any functionality of this sort (though I may have missed it). So, my question is: is there a piece of software which can 'proxy' these http requests? Oh, two things have just sprung to mind: - I can't guarantee that all http requests will be on port 80. I plan to offer a Zope hosting service, which may well live on a different port, depending on how I decide to set it up; - As soon as I said 'proxy', squid sprang to mind. However, can squid do the limiting I require, rather than a simple yes/no access control (I'll post this one in the squid mailing list). Also, this machine is a bit limited on memory - a huge squid cache is the last thing it needs. Many thanks for reading this, and again, sorry for the only marginal relation to FreeBSD... ;) Cheers, Dan ===== Daniel Fairs dan@spiderplant.no-spam.net System Administrator spiderplant.net ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

(assuming the machine has multiple > IP addresses) I've never tried it, but it is at least theoritically possible to use ipfw to filter based on the owner of the local process, so you could reject any packets that the user sends or receives, unless they're to the one allowed IP address. This isn't the exact mechanism you're looking for, so I don't know if it will solve the problem you're running into. It would take two ipfw rules, the first being a skipto skipping past the second rule, matching if it is the allowed IP address, the second denying if it is the restricted user.

Second, make sure you are not using NIS for host resolution, then NIS will not even be queried. It is bad idea unless you distribute /etc/hosts via NIS, which is not a such good idea in the era of DNS anyhow.

I've had very bad luck with these things in the past, but maybe I'm just not going about it the right way. HPT-366 + ARCO DupliDisk hardware IDE RAID = major mistake... No DOS driver for the HPT, ARCO's software doesn't work under Windows. When I finally did get things to work, ARCO's software said it was gonna take roughly 27 years to mirror one 40 Gig Maxtor to the other 40 Gig Maxtor in the DupliDisk caddie. NOT acceptable. Aside from that point, here's a couple of ideas: 1. Maybe there's a driver for the controller for FreeBSD somewhere? I know that they generally produce drivers for Linux, so there may be hope for a specific driver out there. 2. If that doesn't work, why not try installing FreeBSD with the drive connected to the ATA-100 controller? Crazy as it seems, that might actually fix the problem. I know that Promise tells users that reformat a drive when moving it from one controller to another to prevent compatiblity issues. Maybe you're running into one of those issues here... --- Andy > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Zach Johnson > Sent: Sunday, August 13, 2000 6:12 AM > To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: ATA100 bus... can't find root fs > > First of all, I use FreeBSD 4.1-Release... > > I've got a Highpoint Technologies HPT370 ATA66+ controller integrated > into my ABIT KA7-100 motherboard.

I saw some kernel options for specifying the device where the root filesystem is. I'm going to try to play with that. It seems to me if FreeBSD can boot of the drive while on the ATA100 bus, all it would have to do is understand it needs to continue reading from the same device, but it tries to find the root filesystem on my primary and secondary ATA buses (ATA66). I wonder if I can do anything to make it recognize the ATA100 and it's disks properly... Thanks again, Zach Johnson -- SEND HELP! ;-) "Andrew C.

I never did associate those messages with a specific process tho'. They'd just start to pop up in a xterm and I'd kill the term. Never saw any long lasting problems.

If I could get some info about how the sources are organised and what each files does it would be very useful(some thing like chapter 16 in book linux device drivers book by alessandro rubini).

Thank you for your help Tony --=====================_90163238==_.ALT Content-Type: text/html; charset="us-ascii" The problem I have Im sure is common one but I have found no
answers to this in the handbook.

situation:  have a server with boot drive thats getting old, want to copy
the entire boot drive and boot records to the new drive and replace the drive.
I can not take the server down to do the dos program  drive image or ghost.
( I want to do this with having to use any dos programs, free myself from bill )
the problem is the server Im going to clone is in a different location than I am
I want to have everything ready to just walk in and add the drive.
so this is what I have done. 

made a dump file of the old boot drive
dump -0ua -f /tmp/backup/boot.dump /dev/wd0s1a
gzip boot.dump and ftp'd it to my local workstation.
( I would have liked to done dump | retore over tcp but I dont know to )
      
I then added a new hd to my workstation.
cd /stand
sysintall
post configuration
fdisk
   I selected the new drive on mine was ( ad2 )
   in the fdisk menu I picked "a" ( entire disk )
   then I picked "s" ( make bootable)
   picked "w" to write the info to the disk
   I picked standard boot manager
disk label  
   picked "c" create new slice
   added /dev/ad2s1b none swap
         /dev/ad2s1e /mnt ufs
      "w" wrote the update, it ran fsck and mounted my new drive to /mnt
I then
   cd /mnt
   cp /tmp/boot.dump.gz .
   gunzip boot.dump
   restore -rf boot.dump /dev/ad2s1e
after restore was done I went and changed the /mnt/etc/fstab
  commented out the other drive from the old server and add
  /dev/ad0s1b   none swap   
  /dev/ad0s1e   /    ufs
then did a shutdown and removed new hard drive, put the drive in
a new system and booted it.
the screen says
 invalid partition
 invalid partition
 no /boot/loader
 
 defualt: 0:ad(0,a)/kernel
 boot:
 invalid partition
 no /kernel
 
so I type this in
0:ad0(0,e)/kernel

 panic: rslock: cpu: 0, addr: 0x02c3770, lock: 0x00000001
 mp_lock = 00000001; cpuid = 0; lapic.id = 0000000
 automatic reboot in 15 sec

the kernel was for a multi cpu server and I was trying to boot on a single
cpu. so I tried
0:ad0(0,e)/kernel.old

and it booted with the old single cpu kernel.
( I will be using the multi cpu kernel when I install the new hd back
into the real server)
now Im lost at how to change it so it boots to
0:ad(0,e)/kernel  when it picks ad(0,a)
I though I do it with command fdisk but I didnt understand what I should
do.

If there is something I have not done correctly please let me know.
or if there is a better and faster way to do this.
once I know how all of this works and fits together I would like to
get it added to the How-to to help other people and credit who help
in completion of this.

Thank you for your help

They helped a lot, specially the part of sacrificing the chicken to install X :) I'm almost running exactly the same environment in FreeBSD and Debian, but there are still some doubts/problems -- I'll ask them in another emai. Before I thought that answering my previous questions may help someone else in the same situation. So: > 1. I tried configuring my ethernet card by hand, using ifconfig, and > it worked out. But where (or using which program) should I configure > it permanently ? -- I didn't find this info in the Handbook, is there > some other docs I'm missing ?

It configured /etc/rc.conf (or rc.local, I don't remember) and created /etc/resolv.conf for me too. > 2. it would be nice if both systems (FreeBSD and Linux) would share > the same /home/ partition. Which (and why?) partition format should I > use: ufs or ext2 ? I mean, Linux docs states that ufs support > is experimental, and I read somewhere that ext2 is also unstable in > FreeBSD. Both seems to support msdos partitions quite well, but I > wouldn't be happy if I need to use it :) as my /home partition supported "sparse super blocks(?)" and file types in the directories, I had to reformat it (mk2efs) without this options. (Using tune2fs didn't work) -- and move lots of files around. Ahn, and I had to recompile the FreeBSD kernel to support EXT2FS -- it compiles really fast! > 3. to configure XFree86 for FreeBSD I just copied my linux > configuration file, changed the fonts and pointer sections. Very > strangely, when X started, my monitor (a ViewSonic 17", > 1280x1024x60Hz) would complain about invalid frequency ... The card is > a S3 Savage4,and XFree86 is 6.3.3.6 in both systems. Any idea about > what could be causing this ? (I tried lower frequencies, like > 1024x768x60Hz, and then it worked ...) The sacrificed chicken really helped here. I decided to recompile the X11-SVGA. While downloading the files, following a "mysterious" instinct, I went to the ftp site and looked around. I found some fixes, one of them a "savage" fix ... So, I cancelled the "make", made it a "make extract", applied the patches, "make", "make install" ... tandan, it worked ... well almost, I still had to fix by hand a Imakefile and the configuration to support the "savage" chipset, because it's not included by default in other OSs but Linux. But there is still a problem, though working, I haven't got the faintest idea why, the flickers on the left border ... I should have made it (the sacrifice) a goat, I guess ? > 4.

Working in terminal mode, I see that after entering my login and password, I get to a menu that lets me choose PPP, SLIP or terminal access. I can only choose PPP and SLIP. I've asked around, and apparently my ISP (and most others) do not give out ppp access to ttys. Is there anywork around to this? Thanks in advance.

However, please find attached a short c program written by Omachonu Ogali that allows normal users to mount the cdrom (you can obviously modify it to mount the floppy as well). To install it, simply do the following: (as root) cc -o sucd sucd.c chmod 4555 sucd mv sucd /usr/local/bin What you're doing there is setting the binary as setuid which allows people to execute it as root, and allows them to mount/unmount the CD. I would warn against this. ONLY root should ever mount/unmount file systems, so unless you _really_ trust these users, I wouldn't allow this. Hope this helps.

He means the BSD UFS driver *in Linux* is experimental, as is the EXT2 driver in FreeBSD. I settled down on using FAT32 to share a partition between Windows 2000, Linux and FreeBSD. If there was a better solution, like NTFS driver in FreeBSD I would like to hear it. By the way I am not surprised that there are not many pluggabble 3rd party filesystems are available under Win32: The IFS kit is quite expensive.

Hmm.. if it is just about backdoors then it is clear that it is still possible to have hidden vulnerabilities in an open source code, but it is obviously much, much harder to hide such before all eyes than with closed code. There are a couple of security gurus who say that the strongness of a security system should not rely on hidden information about its workings. Look for "security by obscurity". A nice page is this one (by renowned expert Bruce Schneier) http://www.counterpane.com/crypto-gram.html Especially Microsoft was accused to have a backdoor, this is Schneier's opinion on the incident (who thinks it was a bad choice in naming) http://www.counterpane.com/crypto-gram-9909.html#NSAKeyinMicrosoftCryptoAPI Regards, Marc To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 14 6:50:54 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail-in-01.piro.net (mail-out-02.piro.net [194.64.31.10]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DEEBE37B6F0 for ; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 06:50:47 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from marc.vanwoerkom@science-factory.com) Received: from nil.science-factory.com (ScienceFactory-atm1-153.piro.net [195.135.137.205]) by mail-in-01.piro.net (8.9.3/8.9.3/PN-991208) with ESMTP id PAA09968; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 15:49:45 +0200 Received: by nil.science-factory.com (Postfix, from userid 501) id 6ACFF2002; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 15:47:29 +0200 (CEST) From: Marc van Woerkom To: jc@jc.eti.br Cc: questions@freebsd.org In-reply-to: <002701c0056e$eaf24020$fc04dfc8@pchome> (jc@jc.eti.br) Subject: Re: console font References: <002701c0056e$eaf24020$fc04dfc8@pchome> Message-Id: <20000814134729.6ACFF2002@nil.science-factory.com> Date: Mon, 14 Aug 2000 15:47:29 +0200 (CEST) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > i tried the font8x .... option in rc.conf, but any font i tried was smaller. > > i'd like to see more text in a " page" in console...

You can brute force anything, if you have enough time and fast enough equipment :-) I would suggest this recent statement by Bruce Schneier on DES: http://www.counterpane.com/crypto-gram-0006.html#DES The algorithm is still considered safe, what has changed during the years is the key length necessary to keep ahead of the hardware. That key lenght obviously has to be more than 56 bits today.

This was in fact, the hint I needed. The geometry was set to strange values, resetting it to 522/255/63 (for a 4G drive), solved the problem. After that, the system did boot correctly, and I could move on to the next problem (getting the SMP kernel running, which finally succeeded, as well). I'm still wondering if the wrong geometry settings could result from the prior solaris installation, or from unsuccessful installation attempts ? I always thought geometry settings are sort of alway right with scsi disks ... So thanks a lot for your help.

Running the binary in FreeBSD gives some trouble... I've come to the point where it keeps asking for the CD to be mounted even when I've mounted the CD almost everywhere, including copying the contents to /usr/compat/linux/cdrom and run the binary in a chroot'ed linux bash shell. Anyway, in RH 6.1 it runs fine (but I didn't succeed yet in getting my voodoo2 card to work in Linux... it works well in FreeBSD 4.0 on the same machine with the exact same rpm...). Also, I installed libmikmod in /usr/compat/linux so now I have music in ut :-). Would it be useful that I write some notes about it so it can be added to the above mentioned ut-page? How about the patching? People without a Linux distro are in trouble. An option is to redistribute the patched files in some form (would need Loki permission I guess?) or to keep trying to hack the Linux patch binary some more... BTW, patching from 4.00 to 4.13 can be done quite easily in FreeBSD, but this step is not needed for 4.00 -> 4.25. A cool thing about 4.25 is that it supports OpenGL, so it should work on a wider variety of cards than the 4.00 version (only 3dfx). I didn't try yet, but I think that I'll give it a shot with my G200. Regards, Karel.

VNC allows my company to use only a few Linux and Solaris systems (with 1-6 processors each) without having to put one on everyone's desk. Since 90% of our EDA tools are UNIX-based, we save a lot of time and money. > I haven't tried running an X-server on windows but it is my understanding > that VNC sends a lot less data.

They have both XFree 3.3.6 and 4.0.1 running on Windows NT, and have recently added a barrage of X-Servers for framebuffer, DirectX, GDI and GDI via VNC server. Damn would it be tasty to get multiple VNC servers running on Windows, would allow us to start booting Linux more since all we use Windows for is Office. Better yet is the fact that more and more EDA tools are being ported from Solaris to Linux. Maybe FreeBSD will get some recognition some day and we'll see commercial EDA tools for it as well. -- TheBS -- Bryan "TheBS" Smith CONTACT INFO *********************************************************** Chat: thebs413 @ AOL/MSN/Yahoo (see http://Everybuddy.com) Email: mailto:thebs@theseus.com,b.j.smith@ieee.org Legal: http://www.SmithConcepts.com/legal.html To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 14 8:12:19 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from dan.emsphone.com (dan.emsphone.com [199.67.51.101]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id AB0ED37BCE6; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 08:11:40 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from dan@dan.emsphone.com) Received: (from dan@localhost) by dan.emsphone.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id KAA03452; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 10:11:38 -0500 (CDT) (envelope-from dan) Date: Mon, 14 Aug 2000 10:11:38 -0500 From: Dan Nelson To: Ryan@FreeBSD.ORG, Adam Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Suspending the monitor Message-ID: <20000814101137.A3184@dan.emsphone.com> References: <00081401550600.00366@flexor> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.7i In-Reply-To: <00081401550600.00366@flexor>; from "Ryan@FreeBSD.ORG" on Mon Aug 14 01:51:43 GMT 2000 X-OS: FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In the last episode (Aug 14), Ryan@FreeBSD.ORG said: > Hello, I have enabled apm in my bios on my wks, what I would like to > do is suspend the monitor on the machine after a timed amount of no > activity.

I have an HP LaserJet III plugged into lpt0 on irq 7 and the kernel is the stock-standard 4.0-RELEASE GENERIC kernel. (Haven't got around to recompiling yet, as everything so far seems to be OK, except for this, and I also finished installing not long ago). I am running a single standalone machine, connected to other computers only via ppp. I have set up a very simple (but fully functional) /etc/printcap with magicfilter-1.2 as my input filter: spudgun|lp|lj3|hplj3|Hewlett Packard LaserJet III:\ :sh:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/spudgun:\ :lp=/dev/lpt0:\ :if=/usr/local/libexec/magicfilter/ljet3-filter:\ :lf=/var/log/spudgun.log: My files actually do print properly, but the *problem* is that I cannot cancel jobs... lpq won't do it, lpc wont't work, kill -9 'ing lpd then restarting lpd doesn't work, neither does turning the printer off then back on again. THe only solution is to reboot the computer. While all this is going on the kernel spits out error messages such as: Aug 15 00:07:33 /kernel: stray irq 7 Aug 15 00:08:02 /kernel: stray irq 7 Aug 15 00:08:28 /kernel: stray irq 7 Aug 15 00:12:34 last message repeated 2 times Aug 15 00:12:34 /kernel: too many stray irq 7's; not logging any more This is what's in my dmesg (but I got it from /var/log/messages): Aug 14 23:07:00 /kernel: ppc0: at port 0x378-0x37f irq 7 on isa0 Aug 14 23:07:00 /kernel: ppc0: Generic chipset (NIBBLE-only) in COMPATIBLE mode Aug 14 23:07:00 /kernel: ppi0: on ppbus0 Aug 14 23:07:00 /kernel: lpt0: on ppbus0 Aug 14 23:07:00 /kernel: lpt0: Interrupt-driven port Aug 14 23:07:00 /kernel: plip0: on ppbus0 The system is still reasonably "pure". Apart from having installed a few packages like magicfilter, ghostscript, and tcsh, the only way it differs from a stock standard 4.0-RELEASE system is that it I've been trying to set up printing. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

However, dmesg only outputs 64M of RAM. I saw a previous post from 1999 involving the same topic on a dell. Is this a problem with the BIOS/CMOS on the dells not reporting the correct amount of memory? More importantly, how would I fix this? I see the MAXMEM option in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/LINT but it looks like it is currently set to 128M. Is that the default for the generic kernel or does the generic kernel just pull from the board and leave MAXMEM set to what it finds? I am assuming I could fix this problem by setting MAXMEM to 128 in my kernel config file and compile the new kernel. Is that correct? Thanks for the time and help.

It is not the OS - on its own that is the key, it is the applications you are running on it, the environment you run it in and the administrative procedures you wrap aruond the bundle. The O/S is but a small part of the equation. If you have a mission critical application that is made vulnerable by a single o/s based backdoor then you have no security anyway. It is not the OS - on its own that is the key, it is the applications you are running on it, the environment you run it in and the administrative procedures you wrap around the bundle. I would get this stuff right before I worry about rinkydink backdoors that may or may not exist. As to open source what guarantee do you have that that crucial bit of code has actually been looked at by somebody who has understood it's ramifications and has published their findings. Just because it is open source does not mean per se, it is better or backdoor or bug free. -- Mark Rowlands +4686224510 GMT + 1 _______________________________________________ These opinions are mine, they are just opinions you are free to disagree, please do so quietly _______________________________________________ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 14 9:31:56 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from ptavv.es.net (ptavv.es.net [198.128.4.29]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1D84D37BAFC for ; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 09:31:55 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from oberman@ptavv.es.net) Received: from ptavv.es.net (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by ptavv.es.net (8.10.1/8.10.1) with ESMTP id e7EGVsU15464 for ; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 09:31:54 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <200008141631.e7EGVsU15464@ptavv.es.net> To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Significance of PCVT_SCANSET Date: Mon, 14 Aug 2000 09:31:54 -0700 From: "Kevin Oberman" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG The LINT file in STABLE (and every release I could find) includes this note: # This PCVT option is for keyboards such as those used on IBM ThinkPad laptops options PCVT_SCANSET=2 # IBM keyboards are non-std I run 4.1 on a ThinkPad 600E and have never had any problem even though this option is commented out.

If you just want to learn more about the O/S, here the problems and the questions that others have regarding FreeBSD then subscribe to this list, (send an email containing the words 'subscribe freebsd-questions' in the body of the message to 'majordomo@freebsd.org'). As for IRC, there are a lot of people who nock it, but I love it. I've been using FreeBSD now for about 4 years, and OpenBSD now for about 6 months. Anytime I have a question I ask it in IRC first; if I don't get an answer within five-ten minutes, then I send an email to this list. Response time from this list varies, but you'll usually get an answer (or multiple), within an hour. Some simple things to live by in IRC: #1 - DO NOT ask if you can ask a question - this usually makes people ignore you; just flat out ask you're question #2 - be patient; if someone knows the answer they will probably give it, but most IRC users are also busy doing other things besides IRC. #3 - stick to freebsd channels, some #freebsd's (like EFNET's) refuse to be technical support forums. Here's a good list to start with as far as IRC help goes (for BSD anyhow): DalNet- irc.dal.net:7000 / #freebsd EFNet- irc.chat.org / #freebsdhelp EFNet- irc.chat.org / #openbsd As for the Linux vs FreeBSD issue, I understand that Linux is supposedly more 'user-friendly', but I tend to disagree. I don't like clicking-and-dragging my way through things; it seems a lot of things are becoming more X-Windows oriented for the Linux environment than really need be. Call me old fashioned, but I like my console. I've tried various distributions of Linux, (mandrake, slackware, openlinux, redsplat, debian), but I never cared for them. I like the simplicity BSD offers, as well as the stability. Maybe I am a little biased here, but I don't care. I like FreeBSD, or BSD in general for that matter. As for OpenBSD, I can't really comment much; I've only been using it for a few months now but thus far I really like what I see. I'm using OpenBSD 2.7/SPARC, and I will be working with OpenBSD 2.7/i386 some time soon just to get a feel for it. Anyhow, that's my two cents, hope it helps you. -- Nathan Vidican webmaster@wmptl.com Windsor Match Plate & Tool Ltd. http://www.wmptl.com/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 14 9:53: 0 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail2.wmptl.com (mail2.wmptl.com [216.221.73.131]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2342837BAFC for ; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 09:52:56 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from webmaster@wmptl.com) Received: from wmptl.com ([10.0.0.168]) by mail2.wmptl.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id MAA23960; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 12:50:45 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from webmaster@wmptl.com) Message-ID: <39982356.C9B1018@wmptl.com> Date: Mon, 14 Aug 2000 12:50:30 -0400 From: Nathan Vidican X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.72 [en] (Win95; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Mike Meyer Cc: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Dual-Athlon vs Dual-PIII ... opinions?

You're comparing apples-to-oranges here. To be fair, run a 500mhz Athlon system next to a 500mhz Xeon box and see what you come up with. This posting was regarding the Athlon... not the K6-2. I'd pit my Athlon 800mhz box against your dual PII 400 box any day of the week, it's anything but sluggish.

Thanks. You might want to give wdm (in the ports) a try. It allows you to select your login environment, but it doesn't have the nifty pictures to click so your family memebers are still going to have to type their login and password. -- _ _ _ ___ ____ ___ ______________________________________ / \/ \ | ||_ _|| _ \|___| | Jason Andresen -- jandrese@mitre.org / /\/\ \ | | | | | |/ /|_|_ | Views expressed may not reflect those /_/ \_\|_| |_| |_|\_\|___| | of the Mitre Corporation.

Right now, the AMD Athlon's FSB to the chipset is 200Mhz (or 100Mhz DDR), but the memory bus is still 100/133Mhz (depending if you are using the original AMD 75x chipset or the VIA chipset). So you are still somewhat running at 100/133Mhz. Also, not all Pentium III processors run at 133Mhz. Some still run at 100Mhz (but those are fading out). The Pentium III Xeons without the standard Coppermine 256K L2 cache (which is replaced with 512K, 1MB or 2MB of either in-package or external L2 cache) runs at 100Mhz FSB. When the new DDR SDRAM chipsets come out for the AMD Athlon, then the CPU FSB and the memory FSB will run at 100Mhz DDR (or 200Mhz). The Tualatin (the next generation Pentium III at 0.13-micron) will probably run on a 200Mhz FSB (don't know if it's 100Mhz DDR or straight 200Mhz). // Linh Pham // http://closedsrc.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 14 10:33:20 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from wireco.net (mental.wireco.net [206.107.119.3]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 76B1737BD89 for ; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 10:33:14 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from hornback@wireco.net) Received: (qmail 28266 invoked from network); 14 Aug 2000 17:33:12 -0000 Received: from d23.johnson-city.tn.us.wireco.net (HELO challenger) (206.107.119.212) by mental.wireco.net with SMTP; 14 Aug 2000 17:33:12 -0000 Reply-To: From: "Andrew C.

What that means is that you won't be able to install it on your machine. I personally wish that FreeBSD DID support MCA, since I've got a stack of PS/2 Model 80s sitting in my shop right now, with nothing to do. --- Andy To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 14 10:33:56 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail-in-02.piro.net (mail-out-01.piro.net [194.64.31.11]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 28C2737BD89 for ; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 10:33:49 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from marc.vanwoerkom@science-factory.com) Received: from nil.science-factory.com (ScienceFactory-atm1-153.piro.net [195.135.137.205]) by mail-in-02.piro.net (8.9.3/8.9.3/PN-991208) with ESMTP id TAA13645; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 19:33:37 +0200 Received: by nil.science-factory.com (Postfix, from userid 501) id 3A6E62136; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 19:31:51 +0200 (CEST) From: Marc van Woerkom To: mark.rowlands@minmail.net Cc: marc.vanwoerkom@science-factory.com, christian@jacken.net, questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-reply-to: <00081418224200.05631@marbsd.tninet.se> (message from Mark Rowlands on Mon, 14 Aug 2000 18:09:05 +0200) Subject: Re: How safe is FreeBSD?

You're right, administration is very important. The OS is only one component of the system.

This helps if you have a standard installation in addition to the other ones. To create your own local packages, just follow the example of the others: create a subdirectory "local" split(1) your tgz archive into local.aa, local.ab, local.ac, etc... You can also include a local.mtree and local.inf, if you like. The archive is extracted into "/". -Paul.

Basically, you add "vfs.usermount=1" to /etc/sysctl.conf (creating it if you need to), chmod the cd devices to mode 660, put the users you want to be able to mount things in group operator (which owns the CD devices by default; fix that or use the group that owns them instead if this isn't the case), then reboot the system. Users in group operator can then mount cds on directories *they* own. > ps2.: I wanted to avoid to make a suid script to do this ... Suid scripts are a very bad idea, so that's a good thing to avoid.

After loading a kernel and a mfsroot, it will start a 10 second countdown. Press the space key during this countdown to get a loader prompt. At the prompt, type 'unload' to unload the kernel and mfsroot you just loaded. Next, type 'lsdev' to list the drives and their partittions on your system. You need to locate the FFS partitition whose name ends in 'a'. For example: disk1s1a FFS Set the 'currdev' variable to that partition via the set command. For example: ok set currdev=disk1s1a Then type 'load /kernel' followed by 'boot' to boot your system. Once you are loaded, the only thing you need is the /boot/boot1 file, which is the first sector of the bootstrap for disks. Thus, you don't even have to worry about fancy 'dd' footwork. :) -- 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 Aug 14 11:28:11 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.telestream.com (mail.telestream.com [205.238.4.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8FBEC37BB12 for ; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 11:28:08 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from keith@mail.telestream.com) Received: from localhost (keith@localhost) by mail.telestream.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id LAA03225; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 11:27:55 -0700 Date: Mon, 14 Aug 2000 11:27:55 -0700 (PDT) From: To: Mike Meyer Cc: Jan Pfeifer , questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: allow users to mount CD In-Reply-To: <14744.14145.199363.850926@guru.mired.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 I'm a TOTAL nfs/amd newbie but wouldn't it also be possible to setup amd to mount the cd with the proper perms on it, having nfs/amd basicaly do the perms according to what's in your /etc/exports file?

My reason for stating that 0x80 was the FS type code was because I use NTFSDOS with Win95 (which allows DOS/Win to read NTFS partitions) and it's load message mentions 0x80, which I'd alays assumed was the FS type.

Well, if you wanted to mount the cdrom via NFS from your local host, you could certainly do that. You might even be able to convince amd to mount the thing locally (I've been avoiding amd for the last 8 years). If there was something like Linux's autofs available, that would have a similar effect. But that's an awful lot of mechanism for what's essentially a simple problem. Basically, the reason users can't mount cdroms is security features; just setting those to a less secure mode solves the problem. ================================= > Keith W. > At the helm > > My non work related site > www.cydonia.net > ================================= > > > On Mon, 14 Aug 2000, Mike Meyer wrote: > > > Jan Pfeifer writes: > > > How do I let users mount a CD, or any other mount point ? > > > > This question was answered just last week.

If you've got amd set up and running anyway, then using it for this makes some sense. If you need the things you can get with a super-user mount, that makes even more sense (sort of like using ppp -auto). How does it deal with dismounts? Last time I looked at amd, all that really happened was a timeout. That might be a problem in this case. If you get all this working nicely, a web page detailing how would probably be worthwhile. ================================= > Keith W. > At the helm > > My non work related site > www.cydonia.net > ================================= > > > On Mon, 14 Aug 2000, Mike Meyer wrote: > > > keith@mail.telestream.com writes: > > > I'm a TOTAL nfs/amd newbie but wouldn't it also be possible to setup amd > > > to mount the cd with the proper perms on it, having nfs/amd basicaly do > > > the perms according to what's in your /etc/exports file? > > > > Well, if you wanted to mount the cdrom via NFS from your local host, > > you could certainly do that.

To get to the desired mount point you just cd to it like any other directory. It automaticaly mounts it and if it is inactive for n seconds it will dismount. You can set the dismount time though.

Is it inetd? and does it need a SIGHUP? I would think something like this is a feature for your firewall. You could deny all incoming that have a telnet association in /etc/services. You could also add the IP's of your domain to allow but I think I would deny at the firewall first.

You've got to write a chat script to define the login procedure. There should be an example of one in /usr/share/examples/ppp/ppp.conf.sample which you could possibly tweak for your ISP.

Well, if you are using a dialup connection, you can just run fetchmail as part of a start PPP script. Another trick might be to alias mutt to fetchmail &; mutt. This won't help you if you have scripts running that invoke mail or sendmail directly, but will probably be sufficent for home dailup use. -- _ _ _ ___ ____ ___ ______________________________________ / \/ \ | ||_ _|| _ \|___| | Jason Andresen -- jandrese@mitre.org / /\/\ \ | | | | | |/ /|_|_ | Views expressed may not reflect those /_/ \_\|_| |_| |_|\_\|___| | of the Mitre Corporation.

From time to time, it would help to login to a FreeBSD server to try a man page to check something. So, while I can live without it, I just thought I'd ask - are we allowed to login as guest or anonymous to FreeBSD.org or is there some other friendly host out there? Again, just to do things like man pages and so forth. I just thought of another option - I think there are some HTML versions of man pages, but still I think it would be a bit quicker to just login, do a man, and log out - so I'll leave the question open - does anyone out there know of a machine somewhere for limited guest privileges?

And as long as I make sure that no packets get into the system claiming to use one of it's IP-addresses (which typical firewall rules do anyway), noone should be able to abuse my routing gimmick from the outside. Thanks for the remarks, looks like I will give ipfw a shot as IPFilter doesn't seem to have that ability.

The key words are "for protection purposes". If you're trying to do this to keep hostile users from doing something, it won't work very well. If you're trying to do load or cost balancing or some such, then it's not "for protection purposes". Just remember that forging source addresses is pretty trivial, so if someone wants to avoid this, they will. ; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 16:48:15 -0700 (PDT) (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 AAA7132 for ; Tue, 15 Aug 2000 01:48:10 +0200 Received: from S1.com ([172.16.48.219]) by mail.au.ficsgrp.com (Netscape Messaging Server 3.6) with ESMTP id 223; Tue, 15 Aug 2000 09:51:37 +1000 Message-ID: <3998859C.3A6BA57E@S1.com> Date: Tue, 15 Aug 2000 09:49:48 +1000 From: Harry Woodward-Clarke X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.72 [en] (X11; I; Linux 2.2.12 i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Bruce Petro Cc: freebsd-questions Subject: Re: FreeBSD host open for guests?

Not that I know of, but you can browse the manpages here: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi Of course if you install FreeBSD you can have your own box to telnet into and read manpages, a bit more work but more worthwhile. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 14 17:29:59 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from cx111165-a.provd1.ri.home.com.

Anyway, on topic: I've taken to updating my ports collection with CVSup, which works like a charm. I like to navigate using Netscape or lynx, so after each update, I do a "make readmes". However, this takes a while, and to my untrained eye, it looks like it's building the README.html file for every port, whether it was updated or not. This takes a long time. Is this actually what "make readmes" does, and if so, is there any way to make the HTML files for only those ports which have changed? Next, less on topic: I'm trying to build the Mozilla M17 port. and when I do so, the make aborts with the following error message: nsErrorService.cpp g++295 -o nsErrorService.o -c -DOSTYPE=\"FreeBSD3\" -DOJI -D_IMPL_NS_COM -I../../dist/include -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -fPIC -fno-rtti -fexceptions -Wall -Wconversion -Wpointer-arith -Wbad-function-cast -Wcast-align -Woverloaded-virtual -Wsynth -Wshadow -Wno-long-long -O -pipe -pthread -O -DNDEBUG -DTRIMMED -DMOZILLA_CLIENT -include ../../config-defs.h nsErrorService.cpp g++295: Internal compiler error: program cc1plus got fatal signal 11 gmake[2]: *** [nsErrorService.o] Error 1 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/www/mozilla/work/mozilla/xpcom/base' and frankly, I can't even figure out where to file a bug report, let alone what I might do to make this work.

I sometime notice a flicker, I think it's when I don't look dead-on to the monitor. I don't think this is a video problem, but a biology problem: That's just what the eye/brain sees.

I'm not sure if I understand the question. The simple answer is, I suppose, "no". But I looked for "profile" in the Microsoft version and I couldn't find anything there either. I assume the idea of profiles is to allow multiple people to use the same Netscape. Under FreeBSD, we do that by giving each person a separate login and home directory, so the problem doesn't arise.

The scenario is that I have pairs of servers in several different locations. Should one be unavailable to the network for whatever reason, I'd like a convenient (and inexpensive) way to access the unavailable server. My thoughts are to connect the two servers in each location with a null modem cable, serial port to serial port. If server A becomes unavailable on the net for some reason, conceivably I could telnet into the other server, and then communicate with the unavailable server via serial port (maybe even getting it in console mode). Does this sound plausible? Any thoughts on how to go about it? I realize from recent posts on the list that I could probably use tip or something similar to communicate over the serial ports, but I am concerned about getty. Does getty run on both serial ports by default? What will happen if there is a getty on each machine running on the serial ports? I think it will cause a race condition: getty on server a: login: getty on server b: thinks someone is trying to login using username of "login:", replies with "password:" getty on server a: thinks someone is trying to login using username of "password:", replies with "password:" getty on server b: thinks someone is trying to login using password of "password:", replies with "login incorrect" etc this would happen over and over and over, eventually both servers would be doing nothing except firing getty requests at each other as fast as they could. So, short of purchasing pricey terminal servers, can anyone help me out with some ideas on how I can hook two servers together via serial cable as a last resort type of access method? Or should I just consider the idea crazy and move on to something else?

In the Microsoft version of Communicator, I don't know about Navigator, there is a Profile Manager, on the Start menu with Netscape. This allows one person with more than one email address to start Netscape with a menu of profiles to choose from. For example, I have email addresses chip@wiegand.org and admin@wiegand.org. In the winblows version I can set up a profile for each address independantly, then I get a menu where I choose which profile I wish to use.

The Microsoft "profile" idea is just a workaround for lacking functionality in the "operating system". The answer's simple: you have a user admin, and a user chip. I'd be surprised if you find any other mailers with multiple profiles. >> I assume the idea of profiles is to allow multiple people to use the >> same Netscape.

FreeBSD itself and x-windows have both = installed=20 ok.. but I just need to know how to get kde running plz.  I've = looked in=20 errata files, manual pages, and so forth but I can't find the = information I=20 need.
 
Can you help me ?

If you are installing from source (ports) then the files go in /usr/ports/distfiles. If you are installing a binary package just type 'pkg_add /pathtofile/file.tgz' and awaya you go. You need to read up on the website on how to install software on a freebsd system. It seems you have done things the hard way. Commanly a simple 'make install' in the correct directory will do all the work for you. Thank you, Jason C.

Upon installation, the system found it to be an 8505. It does 5GB native, 10GB w/ compression. It uses an 8mm 112m tape. The Exabytes are pretty well supported among several OS's and you can pick them up in the ~$100 range on eBay (used, of course). I got mine with an external cd-rom for my sparc, including SCSI cables and terminator for $113. You will need to supply a SCSI controller though. Not that my usage matters, but since no one else has answered, I wanted to toss one in here since I was in the same boat once. -Otter > =============================== > John Goodleaf > goodleaf@goodleaf.net > > PGP key: finger John@clyde.goodleaf.net > =============================== > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 14 19:59:25 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from theory1.physics.iisc.ernet.in (theory1.physics.iisc.ernet.in [144.16.71.20]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 4186E37B5C7 for ; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 19:59:19 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from rsidd@physics.iisc.ernet.in) Received: (qmail 2316 invoked from network); 15 Aug 2000 02:59:14 -0000 Received: from unknown (HELO theory3.physics.iisc.ernet.in) (qmailr@144.16.71.158) by theory1.physics.iisc.ernet.in with SMTP; 15 Aug 2000 02:59:14 -0000 Received: (qmail 1753 invoked by uid 211); 15 Aug 2000 02:59:13 -0000 Date: Tue, 15 Aug 2000 08:29:13 +0530 From: Rahul Siddharthan To: Chip Cc: Greg Lehey , FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: Netscape, may be off topic Message-ID: <20000815082913.B1694@physics.iisc.ernet.in> References: <3998935A.720FC3BB@wiegand.org> <20000815103154.B3999@wantadilla.lemis.com> <3998A282.CB2B194B@wiegand.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i In-Reply-To: <3998A282.CB2B194B@wiegand.org>; from chip@wiegand.org on Mon, Aug 14, 2000 at 06:53:06PM -0700 X-Operating-System: Linux 2.4.0-test3 i686 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG > I guess I'll have to set up differant logins for myself, or find a > differant > email program.

Source routing means embedding routing information in a packet to try and force an intermediate router to route that packet differently.

Here's the scene: I have a 20 GIG drive with three OS's there -> SuSE linux, debian (potato) and a debian (woody) for development. I use a trick to boot these in linux and I am not sure that it will work with BSD: At the the beginning of the drive I always put two **small (10 MB )** primary partitions. Then I can mount /boot (NOTE: this is _not_ the same as / ) on /dev/hda1 or 2 for the OS's high on the drive. I know that I could mount / on one of these partitions with BSD but they are not big enough for that - /boot is a very small partition on linux containing only those things needed at boot time. MY QUESTION: Is there a way that I can put kernel and such in a boot partition and make the same arrangement ?? I simply do not know enough about the BSD loader and so on to tell. I'd like to get BSD on the high end of the drive which is where my development system is - the low end has to stay the way it is for now. Comments would be greatly appreciated and if you wish you may also reply or CC to me directly as I am not actually subscribed to this list -but I'll check back here too, so don't go out of your way or anything ...

I do have interfaces using the non-routable ip addresses in the 192.168.x.y address range that have names that I made up myself. I have no trouble with samba using these fake names.

Another option (recommended!) would be to use a better input filter for printing. I recommend using 'apsfilter'. It's in the ports collection (hopefully you installed the ports). You can find it in the ports like this: cd /usr/ports && make search key=apsfilter Apsfilter can handle many file types (postscript, etc.) and print them out properly.

From the README.TXT in the same directory: For a normal CDROM or network installation, all you need to copy onto actual floppies from this directory are the kern.flp and mfsroot.flp images (for 1.44MB floppies). and further: If you're on an ALPHA machine which netboots its floppy images or you have a 2.88MB or LS-120 floppy capable of taking a 2.88MB image on an x86 machine, you may still wish to use the older (but now twice as large) boot.flp image which we also provide. That contains the contents of kern.flp and mfsroot.flp on a single floppy, essentially, and can be used in all of the above scenarios as well as a handy boot image for those mastering "El Torito" bootable CD images. See the mkisofs(1) command for more information. So the documentation is there; you just haven't read it :-) If you're installing FreeBSD, you should probably grab 4.1-RELEASE instead of 3.4. Further instructions are in the installation section of the FreeBSD Handbook. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/ Nick. -- From a Sun Microsystems bug report (#4102680): "Workaround: don't pound on the mouse like a wild monkey."

You've either picked up the wrong file or read it in ASCII mode. Use a BINARY transfer. It would also be worth your while to get 4.1-RELEASE instead of 3.4-RELEASE. > I am new to FreeBSD, and you documentation is not clear, and not straight to > point as well. Strange. The installation handbook at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html reads pretty clear to me. The people at freebsd-doc@freebsd.org would be interested to know just which parts are not clear to you. > I dont have the CD with me, is that mean I gotta download ALL subdirectories > from > ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/3.4-RELEASE/ ???? > > If i wanna do a NFS installation (put the source to a Unix server) since the > PC to install FreeBSD is not connected to network, I have put all files from > ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/3.4-RELEASE/ to that unix > server? and boot from floppy (like linux), is that the way? The installation program on the floppies provides several ways to install FreeBSD. Ftp'ing from the 'Net is one option; NFS, local CDROM are others. If you wish to use NFS, won't the PC you wish to connect it have to be connected to a network anyway? If you wish to have a installation-server you would probably need to mirror the contents of ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.1-RELEASE/ or you could get an CD ISO image of the 4.1-RELEASE from: ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES -- Jonathan Chen ----------------------------------------------------------------------- "I love deadlines.

The 2.88MB file is used if you have a 2.88MB floppy drive (or a 2.88MB capable drive) or want to create a bootable CD-ROM with the necessary files to install or load FreeBSD. There should be two 1.44MB files called something like mfsboot.flp and kern.flp (which should be downloaded as binary files) which you can use dd or rawrite to write them out to two floppy disks. // Linh Pham // http://closedsrc.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Mon Aug 14 22:56:32 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from pioneernet.net (pop3.pioneernet.net [208.240.196.25]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0225637B807 for ; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 22:56:28 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from chip@wiegand.org) Received: from wiegand.org [208.194.173.26] by pioneernet.net with ESMTP (SMTPD32-6.03) id AE7CD4A801C8; Mon, 14 Aug 2000 23:09:00 -0700 Message-ID: <3998DBD9.FA1816DC@wiegand.org> Date: Mon, 14 Aug 2000 22:57:46 -0700 From: Chip X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.74 [en] (X11; U; FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE i386) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Greg Lehey Cc: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: Netscape, may be off topic References: <3998935A.720FC3BB@wiegand.org> <20000815103154.B3999@wantadilla.lemis.com> <3998A282.CB2B194B@wiegand.org> <20000815113359.C3999@wantadilla.lemis.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, I'll be checking out your site real soon.

Then, I moved the harddrive back to the ATA100... It boots. I go to the boot prompt and do an lsdev. I see my floppy and my harddrive listed... disk1s2a is where root is according to the output. I continue the boot. An ATA66 controller from HighPoint Tech is found apparently located where I think the ATA100 is. (same IRQ, etc.. ??) No 'ad' devices are listed on the screen... but some atapci and ata ones are. The boot fails when it tries to talk to the primary and secondary ATA buses (the 66's) and can't find the root file system. I get the mount root> prompt. If I type in say, ufs:/dev/ad1s2a is tells me there is no device 'ad.' It doesn't matter what numbers I put after ad, it is like the device doesn't exist. Why is it at the boot prompt I can view files on my harddrives and see all its divisions, including where the root filesystem is, and then I can't get FreeBSD to read from it afterwards.... While connected to the ATA66 bus, can I make a kernel that will help me and then load that kernel from the boot prompt after reconnecting the drive to the ATA100 bus? Anything else I could try? Do I have to just give up and plug the drive into the ATA66 bus?

I'll give you one piece of little advise that worked for me. And it was motivated by you!! I've been in a dilemna with my printer all these days and even posted something on the lists and got the same reponses like you - which of course did not help me. However just today I've gotten my printer working, thanks to APSFILTER. Apsfilter is in the ports collection. I run FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE as a personal workstation but I have a Server running 3.4-RELEASE and I checked it out and found that apsfilter is in the ports too. Andreas (the guy in charge of it) included a cute SETUP script which I ran with sh SETUP (I'm not sure if there is one in 3.4 but I promise you it is worth the trouble looking for it. If it doesn't then consider getting the newer version, even if it means updating your ports tree!!) This script did EVERYTHING for me. All I have to do now is to figure out how to tell Samba that other people on the network also like printing to my HP Deskjet 895Cxi Good luck!!

Fetchmail has more features, and is maintained a little better. Fetchmail also supports a nifty daemon mode where it will poll the mailserver every n seconds. If you set this to just a little bit less than the timeout of your SMTP server you won't have to worry about timing out. -- _ _ _ ___ ____ ___ ______________________________________ / \/ \ | ||_ _|| _ \|___| | Jason Andresen -- jandrese@mitre.org / /\/\ \ | | | | | |/ /|_|_ | Views expressed may not reflect those /_/ \_\|_| |_| |_|\_\|___| | of the Mitre Corporation.

I thought this might be of interest to whoever would like to come to my aid. 1.Will I have a problem with TWO Samba Servers on the same network? My assumption is that as long as I use a different workgroup name it will be okay. Please advice. Now my dielmna. I cannot access this server from Network neighborhood (know PC environment??)

Depends on who you talk to. SUN and DEC keyboards put the ctrl key just left of the A and the caps lock key below the left shift. They also stick \ where enter is supposed to be and sometimes don't have an escape key (which makes vi a barrel of fun to use). Some people prefer that layout, but most people who grew up with the PC style keyboard intensely dislike them. -- _ _ _ ___ ____ ___ ______________________________________ / \/ \ | ||_ _|| _ \|___| | Jason Andresen -- jandrese@mitre.org / /\/\ \ | | | | | |/ /|_|_ | Views expressed may not reflect those /_/ \_\|_| |_| |_|\_\|___| | of the Mitre Corporation.

Without net use /stand/sysinstall to install prepackaged programs from the CD. These are *.tgz. The *tar.gz it tried to fetch is the source for it. If you can get that file, put it in /usr/ports/distfiles then do a make from the proper directory again and the unpacking and compilation will begin. Do a 'make install' to actually install the binaries and man pages etc. While it may be fun to compile things now and then the prepackaged ports are by far the easiest to use. /M ---------------------------------- Michael Josefsson, MSEE mj@isy.liu.se This message was sent by XFMail running on FreeBSD 3.5-STABLE ---------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 15 7: 1: 6 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail3.aracnet.com (mail3.aracnet.com [216.99.193.38]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DD61037BA47 for ; Tue, 15 Aug 2000 07:01:04 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from hamellr@aracnet.com) Received: from shell1.aracnet.com (shell1.aracnet.com [216.99.193.21]) by mail3.aracnet.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id HAA17651 for ; Tue, 15 Aug 2000 07:01:08 -0700 Received: by shell1.aracnet.com (8.9.3) id HAA00655; Tue, 15 Aug 2000 07:01:04 -0700 Date: Tue, 15 Aug 2000 07:01:04 -0700 (PDT) From: Rick Hamell Cc: FreeBSD Questions Subject: Re: moving from Debian Linux In-Reply-To: <20000814190114.E20315@localhost.localdomain> 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 > > But there is still a problem, though working, I haven't got the > > faintest idea why, the flickers on the left border ...

Does your system have a name, and is it in the /etc/hosts file?

I've got samba working just fine on my 4.1 system.  I've got a static IP
address assigned to me by my ISP, however.  I do have interfaces using
the non-routable ip addresses in the 192.168.x.y address range that have
names that I made up myself.  I have no trouble with samba using these
fake names.  At first glance, it seems that your system doesn't know
what it's own name is.

Well, some 3D cards (in 3D modes) are better supported under Linux (with binary drivers for instance). For the most part though, Linux and FreeBSD use the same X server code (XFree86) which performs quite similarly under FreeBSD and Linux. Linux also has a console framebuffer driver that is used for some applications that is much much faster than X, but it only works with a few applications (mostly games) that are specifically written for it. It used to be the case that applications using the framebuffer had to be suid root, but I think this has changed (at least I hope so!). -- _ _ _ ___ ____ ___ ______________________________________ / \/ \ | ||_ _|| _ \|___| | Jason Andresen -- jandrese@mitre.org / /\/\ \ | | | | | |/ /|_|_ | Views expressed may not reflect those /_/ \_\|_| |_| |_|\_\|___| | of the Mitre Corporation.

Most DVDs are written in UDF format. This format is also used for CD-RW disks by Adaptec DirectCD. At this time there is no FreeBSD support for UDF, although there was a message earlier this year from someone who was going to write it. (I'd love to be able to read the UDF CD-RW disks from my PC.)

Do you have the right CD mounted? Port distfiles are on CD 4 IIRC, these are not the same thing as the packages which are spread over CDs 1-3.

The main issue with C++ is that it's convuluted and filled with mayhem :) A lot of programs are done in C mostly because it is more cross-platform friendly than many programming languages. Meaning that you can easily port a program written in C to run on UNIX, DOS, Windows, etc. Try doing that with BASIC :) // Linh Pham // http://closedsrc.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 15 10:47:46 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from mail.tiscalinet.be (smtp-out.tiscalinet.be [212.35.2.51]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A5A0837B83C for ; Tue, 15 Aug 2000 10:47:31 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from g-d-b@freegates.be) Received: from ppp-16-100.tiscalinet.be ([212.35.16.101] helo=gdb) by mail.tiscalinet.be with smtp (Exim on FreeGates) id 13OkoB-0000rh-00 for ; Tue, 15 Aug 2000 19:47:28 +0200 Message-ID: <000e01c006e1$07fb6ca0$651023d4@gdb> From: "GDB" To: Subject: configured irq 3 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 Date: Tue, 15 Aug 2000 19:48:31 +0200 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_000B_01C006F1.CA66E5C0" X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2615.200 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2615.200 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_000B_01C006F1.CA66E5C0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I want to add "sio3" to my kernel.

Well as far as the OS itself (kernel) afaik a lot of C++'s 'features' require support that's not present in the kernel for such things as exceptions and templates you have too many side-effects going on that cause problems. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 15 11: 5:58 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from freemail.aecinfo.com (host-45.toronto.bricsnet.com [209.146.217.45]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4221E37B8DD; Tue, 15 Aug 2000 11:05:40 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from mitayai@bricsnet.com) Received: from itdept (host-102.toronto.bricsnet.com [209.146.217.102]) by freemail.aecinfo.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id OAA23107; Tue, 15 Aug 2000 14:10:37 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from mitayai@bricsnet.com) Reply-To: From: "Will Mitayai Keeso Rowe" To: Cc: Subject: RE: cvsup5 down?

First, yes, all the serial ports need to use different IRQs. The reason that it works under Windows with shared irqs is that Windows doesn't use the irq. (At least that is how it works with MSDOS. I don't think anything have changed since.) You need to somehow change the hardware to use a different IRQ-line. How you do that depends on where that extra serial port comes from :-) On the card with extra serial ports that I have there are a set of jumpers to choose irq/IO-port etc. Hopefully you have something like that. Then you set the options in the kernel to match the actual hardware. -- Erik Trulsson ertr1013@student.uu.se To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-questions Tue Aug 15 11:17:45 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from gloworm.Stanford.EDU (gloworm.Stanford.EDU [171.64.99.46]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B5EFA37BE5A for ; Tue, 15 Aug 2000 11:17:40 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from yergeau@gloworm.Stanford.EDU) Received: from localhost (yergeau@localhost) by gloworm.Stanford.EDU (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id LAA26208; Tue, 15 Aug 2000 11:17:39 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <200008151817.LAA26208@gloworm.Stanford.EDU> To: Chip Cc: "freebsd-questions@freebsd.org" Subject: Re: Netscape, may be off topic In-reply-to: Your message of "Mon, 14 Aug 2000 17:48:27 MST." <3998935A.720FC3BB@wiegand.org> Date: Tue, 15 Aug 2000 11:17:39 -0700 From: Dan Yergeau Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG >Am I mistaken or does Netscape for FreeBSD not support multiple >profiles? Not directly, but you can always change your HOME environment variable for a different tilde expansion for ~/.netscape. I'd recommend doing that through a wrapper script.

C is more low-level. You get what you write. C++ gets you further away from the hardware (adds virtual method table pointers, etc.) As Operating Systems are basically a device driver for the hardware C may be more natural (and still people sometimes use assembly). Of course, that doesn't mean you *can't* do it in C++.

I still have my Tanenbaum's "Operating Systems - Design and Implementation" (the MINIX book), but I guess it's a bit outdated.

If this is a production machine, I'd advice poking through the sources in sys/dev/usb to see what shows up. On my -current machine, there is at least one serial converter in the quirks file, so someone is using them - just not me, and I'm not sure how. As an alternative, you might look at replacing the devices that are currently on the serial ports (assuming they aren't consoles) with USB versions. When I looked, serial converters where *expensive*, costing more than USB modems and parallel converters. ; Tue, 15 Aug 2000 13:06:03 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from casantos@cpmet.ufpel.tche.br) Received: from localhost (casantos@localhost) by gate.cpmet.ufpel.tche.br (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id UAA04335 for ; Tue, 15 Aug 2000 20:08:06 GMT (envelope-from casantos@cpmet.ufpel.tche.br) X-Authentication-Warning: gate.cpmet.ufpel.tche.br: casantos owned process doing -bs Date: Tue, 15 Aug 2000 20:08:06 +0000 (GMT) From: Carlos A M dos Santos To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: What means "no modules loaded for `xdm' service"?

I read about this in the FreeBSD FAQ about why this is, and they said it's becasue it's set to slave when it's the only thing on an IDE loop. Ok, I checked that, it was master. I had no better idea, so I went into MsSysInfo to check the memory address of the secondary IDE controller, becasue the CDROM is on the secondary controller. OK, I set it to that portion of memory in the hardware setup. It still won't find the CD. I do have a Microm PC, which has that IRQ problem, but I disabled "PnP OS". If you have any idea I would be very glad to hear about it.

Perhaps if you told us exactly what was confusing about it, rather than acting like an idiot (although in your case, I suspect there isn't much acting involved) and using gratuitous profanity, it could be improved.

Yes, Unix predates C++. I'm pretty sure Unix predated C, as before C there was B, and before B there was BCPL, and the first C compilers were written for Unix. However, the history of the two is to tightly coupled to tell at this distance, so you'd have to ask someone who was there. Yes, C is better for OS work than C++. OS code needs to be close to the hardware, and as efficient as possible. C++ sacrifices efficiency, and possibly the ability to get close to the hardware, attempting to provide a higher level of abstraction. C, on the other hand, includes things so that you can reliably manage hardware. > i'm also interested in a good book on programming operating system if anyone > has a recommendation (doesn't have to be geared toward unix).

Ok, I found this: http://www.livingston.com/tech/archive/portmaster-users/9808/1088.html however I had to "set s6 modem off" to get it working, you also have to make sure your portmaster's host matches the ifconfig'd address.

Here's some history: 1) Had 4.0 STABLE installed from CD ROM for 4 months to learn FBSD. 2) Ran out of hard drive space so I decided to repartition my BSD drive from 1087M to 2800M. 3) Since BSD is going to be deleted anyway, I decided to install 4.1 STABLE via FTP 4) Floppy creation - easy! Floppy boot - easy! Kernel config - easy! 5) After selecting all my options, I get the following error message for every download in sequence: Unable to transfer the bin ditribution from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ I was told by a friend that the site was down for a while today so I waited and tried again 2 hours later. Then 4 hours later with the same results. I decided to reboot to Warp and check the site. It was up and running!!! BSD apparently recongizes my cable modem and network card (same set up I used with 4.0) since it was able to automatically capture my hostname and ISP server. I can even watch my modem light flash for a second until it errors out. Any ideas???

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Sorry for the off topic, but I'm facing a weird problem that must be solved in a hurry. So here it is: Last week my company bought 2 Seagate's Cheetah ST118202LC and I can't make it work on Adaptec's AHA2940U2W LVD channel, even with a LVD cable and terminator. Tips: Accordingly to http://www.seagate.com:80/support/disc/specs/scsi/st118202lc.html , this is a Ultra2 device. None of the two drives works on this channel, only on Wide SCSI capable one ( they worked too on one of my AHA2940UW ). If one of this drives are attached to LVD channel, the controller is unable to find any other device ( even, of course, with different devices id ). No problem was found running a IBM DCAS-32160W on the LVD channel ( and its possible since the only drawback is that this channel will only work with 40 Mbps of speed ). This might indicate that the controller is ok, at least dealing with Wide SCSI devices. My AHA's bios is the most updated one: 2.57 ( re-updated today ). I've been searching on the web and the only thing I've found is that the first ones Seagate's Cheetah had a internal error dealing with its parity check option enable. I tried to disable it but it still didn't work.

That all seemed to work. I did get one message saying (for my own domain) that it's was non-authoritative... is that a big deal? Also, I have domain name registered to that IP, yet I can't seem to find it anywhere. How do I get that propegated? That IP is listed as the primary name server for the host name, is that even correct? Thanks for the help!

The ports tree is updated by what you did, but any ports you built and installed before doing this will not have been updated. If you want to update the installation of a port you installed before, cd to its directory under /usr/ports and do `make reinstall'. I'm not sure if this answers your question though.

Application: I am running a central syslog repository that logs +250 freebsd servers.

At first I thought it was newsyslog related but I turned off newsyslog in cron and the problem continues. Hupping syslogd has no effect and I must kill it and restart to clear the poll state. I have searched the archives (pain in the neck without having the ability to search by date :^P ) and have not seen similar instances that have been answered. Question: Could some entry from one of my remote machines be killing syslogd? (I have looked at the entries in /var/log/messages that correspond to the times that cron dies/stops logging and nothing is out of the ordinary) There are no other cronjobs that correspond to the times that syslog stops... I would like to find out if anyone else has had this type of difficulty before I rebuild the system/replace files/at script to grep for the poll states, kill and restart syslogd...

That fixed a problem > with identical symptoms in my case. No. First, I've added a workaround for the virus protection buglet in various K7 mobo's. Also, that bug caused the loader to die, thus the system never got into sysinstall. This problem is related to the kernel and later since sysinstall doesn't have any keyboard activity. > Gerd -- 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 Aug 16 18:53:27 2000 Delivered-To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Received: from hotmail.com (f13.pav1.hotmail.com [64.4.31.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1C89737B55C; Wed, 16 Aug 2000 18:45:54 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from bsdnewbie@hotmail.com) Received: from mail pickup service by hotmail.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC; Tue, 15 Aug 2000 18:46:35 -0700 Received: from 61.151.174.121 by pv1fd.pav1.hotmail.msn.com with HTTP; Wed, 16 Aug 2000 GMT X-Originating-IP: [61.151.174.121] From: "bsdnewbie bsdnewbie" To: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org, freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org Subject: _Fianl conclusion!!! of A bug? or NOT!

Do you have a wheel group defined before the NIS token in the group file?

There is no SCSI printer driver, so you're probably out of luck, unless you want to write a driver.

One of the reasons I'm considering the change is that web site lists a native FORTRAN compiler as one of the new features in 4.x. Since FORTRAN is one of those things that I occasionally have a need for, and f2c isn't terribly efficient compared to native code, I was wondering if anybody has more info about this. Searching the site and the mailing lists didn't turn much up.

Not for me. I don't think emacs is particularly heavy on key-combos. It takes a while to get used to, but the smaller keyboard is not really a liability for doing key combos... Well, some keyboards only have a ctrl-key on one side, and the insert-, delete-, page-up-, and page-down-keys could be about anywere. I switch between a regular PC keyboard, a Sun keyboard, DELL notebook, and IBM notebook. That's asking for carpal tunnel. Personally, the built-in pointers on notebooks are what I find troublesome, although I miss a separate numeric pad. -- Crist J.

I downloaded FreeBSD because a friend recommended it (I got the 4.0-install.iso file and burned it). Anyway, after a considerable amount of reading I managed to install the thing. The only problem is that whenever I try to boot to FreeBSD the computer justs beeps at me. The thing is, I have two equally sized partitions on a 45 gig hard drive (~22.5 ea). The first one has Win98 on it and the second has FreeBSD. The only reason I used this set up is because I have some stuff on the Windows partition that I don't want to get rid of so I used FIPS to separate the partition. So, my boot prompt looks like this: F1 DOS F2 FreeBSD Default: F1 and, as I said, when I push F2 the computer just beeps. Any suggestions? Dave PS I searched the mail archive and I found this same problem but the response pointed to a faq question that doesn't seem to exist anymore.

I have trouble with a PlexWriter PXR412C, Firmware Rev 1.07. This writer is adapted to a Adaptec 2940UW SCSI Controller, Firmware Rev 2.57.2, SCSI ID 6. When booting the system, BIOS recognizes the writer, FreeBSD recognizes it, too. This is the output of dmesg: --- snip cd1 at ahc0 bus 0 target 6 lun 0 cd1: Removable CD-ROM SCSI-2 device cd1: 10.000MB/s transfers (10.000MHz, offset 8) cd1: cd present [4294967146 x 2048 byte records] --- snip Seems to me to be absolutely normal.

Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I an eagerly awaiting delivery of a 2 user SecurID trial kit and one of the things I'd like to test is authenticating logins to a FreeBSD box against SecurID. It doesn't appear as if there is a way to make this happen. I have set up OTP support on FreeBSD boxes before, but this is somewhat different. Far as I can tell, I need a SecurID ACE/Agent running on the client box, and there simply isn't one for FreeBSD, according to RSA's website. Anyone have any ideas here for ways to make this work without harassing RSA to make an ACE/Agent for BSD?

I would guess your BSD root partition isn't located entirely within the first 1024 cylinders of the disk. See http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/install.html#AEN839. I believe FreeBSD 4.1 can work around this (BIOS) limitation to some extent; you may have better results with the newer version.
